  • Written Council Questions
    COUNCIL, 28 SEPTEMBER 2017 : WRITTEN QUESTIONS CHAIR OF PUBLIC PROTECTION COMMITTEE (COUNCILLOR JACKIE PARRY) W1 WRITTEN QUESTION FROM COUNTY COUNCILLOR DE’ATH A cross-party group of MPs are lobbying Transport for London to ban the company Uber from the UK capital. The MPs allege Uber is endangering the public, pointing to claims that the firm's drivers carry out a sexual assault every 11 days. The Metropolitan Police have also accused the taxi firm of not reporting all alleged sexual assaults by drivers on passengers. The MPs also argue that the company mistreats its workers, paying them as little as £2 per hour and accuse Uber of not paying VAT on its rides, allegedly escaping £40million in taxes. In a letter on behalf of the group of MPs sent to the head of Transport for London calling for Uber’s operating license not to be extended, Ilford North MP Wes Streeting said: "The safety of Londoners must be at the forefront of decisions taken about the taxi and private hire industry in our capital city. We do not believe that Uber has shown itself to be a fit and proper operator." In light of these developments, what is Cardiff Council’s position on the desirability of Uber operating in the Welsh capital and is the authority considering lobbying to have Uber’s operating license discontinued here? Reply Uber Britannia Ltd was issued with a private hire operator licence by the Council in September 2016 and the current licence remains in force for a maximum of five years. In issuing any operator licence, the Council has to be satisfied that the applicant is fit and proper to hold the licence.

  • Rothesay March 13Th Word Count: 568 Visual Attention 1 2 Given That Our
    Rothesay March 13th Word count: 568 1 Visual Attention 2 3 Given that our visual attention has limited resources, we selectively attend to areas that 4 contain salient stimuli (Wolfe & Horowitz, 2004) or that match our internal goals (Hopfinger, 5 Buonocore, & Mangun, 2000). At the same time, other areas in the visual display are often 6 overlooked. Thus, a designer should carefully consider drawing viewers’ attention to important 7 information and reducing viewers’ attentional load on unimportant information. 8 Web designers recently tend to present all the information on a long page, and the 9 viewers need to scroll down to see different blocks of information. This new trend is probably 10 due to frequent mobile device use in our daily life, and we become more familiar with scrolling. 11 A critical piece of information on this type of webpage is to notify people to scroll down. 12 Otherwise, this design would be a complete failure. To successfully deliver this message, 13 designers can use preattentive features, such as motion, to draw people’s attention. For example, 14 on Google Drive’s webpage, the down arrow at the bottom of page informs people to scroll 15 down. Although the color makes the down arrow to stand out from the background, the 16 additional movement of the arrow is the key factor that draws people’s attention. Thus, dynamic 17 arrows can be useful to draw people’s attention to scroll down. 18 If a webpage is filled with dynamic objects, it will create competition between 19 information. To avoid this issue, other methods should be used to draw viewers’ attention.

  • Politics in Contemporary Productions of William Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus1
    Scripta Uniandrade, v. 17, n. 3 (2019) Revista da Pós-Graduação em Letras – UNIANDRADE Curitiba, Paraná, Brasil ANATOMY MONSTROUS: POLITICS IN CONTEMPORARY PRODUCTIONS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S TITUS ANDRONICUS1 Dr. FILIPE DOS SANTOS ÁVILA Doutor pela Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC) Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brasil ([email protected]) RESUMO: O presente artigo analisa duas montagens contemporâneas da peça Tito Andrônico, escrita por William Shakespeare em cooperação com George Peele. Assim, o presente estudo analisa as montagens de Michael Fentiman (2013) e Lucy Bailey (2014). A análise focou na relação entre os momentos mais violentos da peça e a submissão – ou resistência – das personagens ao poder estatal. Em vez de tentar estabelecer qual a afiliação política de Shakespeare ou discutir se a peça tem uma postura reacionária ou revolucionária, este estudo, baseando-se principalmente em Anderson, Fernie e Gil, conclui que tais montagens contemporâneas revelam ideias complexas sobre poder, liberdade e política. É precisamente nesses momentos de violência que tais ideias podem ser percebidas de forma mais clara. Palavras-chave: Shakespeare em performance. Tito Andrônico. Violência e política. Artigo recebido em: 27 set. 2019. Aceito em: 29 out. 2019. 1 This work is part of my PhD thesis, defended in 2018 at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC) under Dr. José Roberto O'Shea's supervision. Much of the research was conducted at the Shakespeare Institute (University of Birmingham), in Stratford-upon-Avon. I would like to thank CAPES, again, for funding my research both at the Institute and in Brazil. ÁVILA, Filipe dos Santos.

One of my proudest achievements here has been the LGBT+ Conservatives Candidates’ Fund, which has supported so many people into parliament and raised tens of thousands of pounds. As the fund matures it is moving into a new governance structure, and I hope to play a role in that future. I am thrilled to be succeeded by Elena Bunbury. I know that she will bring new energy to the organisation, and I hope it will continue to thrive under her leadership. I am so grateful to everyone who has supported me on this journey. In particular Emma Warman, Matthew Green and John Cope who have provided wise counsel as Deputy Chairman. To Sean Anstee who has transformed the finances of the organisation.
