"Coming Home 1942"
This mural depicts Broadway between Grove City Rd and Park Street in 1942. The block, then occupied by a private residence, a drug store, a barber shop / real estate office and a restaurant, became the site of City Hall in 1990.
The mural is based on three photographs believed taken on a single day in 1942.

A random screenshot from Google Maps of the rusty remnants of the long abandoned Walmart Distribution spur track that was reduced to a short stub after they had resurfaced Fender Trail in Brookhaven, Mississippi.
Most of the old railroad track over on the other side of the road is still in place, it is just way too overgrown to be able to see it.

United Nations University World Institute for Development Economics Research (UNU-WIDER) in partnership with Universidad de los Andes (UNIANDES) convenes a three-day conference on reducing inequality, held in Bogotá, Colombia, 5-7 October 2022.
As new research uncovers the many negative impacts that high inequality can have, a consensus is emerging that achieving SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities is a global goal of critical importance.
The programme addresses major themes in inequality across keynote lectures, parallel sessions, and a policy dialogue event. Speakers include leading scholars of inequality, including Raquel Fernández and Francisco H. G. Ferreira. In addition, the VII Colombian Economic Congress forms part of the programme.
Through a coalition of student volunteers we’ve delivered thousands of pounds of extra food from our dining hall to a local center for families in crisis.
As part of a first-year seminar course in the department of art & design, students at Ohio Northern University were charged to invent a creative way to reuse something or invent a device or object that used waste in a meaningful way.

Background
Social workers working within Justice Services undertake a number of roles depending on the team in which they are based.
Within Fife Justice Service there are area-based Community Payback Order Teams and Fife-wide teams such as Throughcare, Woman’s Justice Team, Drug Treatment and Testing Order Team (DTTO), Groupwork Team and Enhanced Bail Supervision Team. Within the Community Payback Order (CPO) teams, the Social Workers and Social Work Assistants supervise Community Payback Orders imposed by the court. These orders include up to nine requirements which can include supervision and unpaid work.
The CPO teams also manage Diversion from Prosecution programmes and Structured Deferred Sentences. The workers use a risk assessment tool called LSCMI to determine a person’s risk of further offending, ensuring that the appropriate amount of resources are deployed to manage potential risk of re-offending and/or harm. A case management plan is then created which is person-centred, including areas of need and also areas of strength to be built upon.
The other Fife-wide specialist teams follow a similar structure of monitoring, assessment and support, however throughcare manage people using the service who have been subject to custody and post release supervision has been imposed by the court.
Woman’s Justice Team specifically work with female users of the service and provide gender specific interventions which look to address underlying needs.
The DTTO team work with people whose offending behaviour is directly linked to their use of illicit substances.
Groupwork team deliver programmed work to people who pose a risk of sexual or domestic offending.
The Enhanced Bail Supervision (EBS) Team is the most recent team to be developed within Fife and aims to reduce the number of remands in Fife and provide robust monitoring and support of those who are at risk of custody, within the community.
Critically Endangered.
The main reason is the loss of their rainforest habitat. Logging for cooking fuel and building materials, as well as slash-and-burn farming, has reduced Madagascar's forests by as much as 85%. Ruffed lemurs are also hunted for food.
Together with the red ruffed lemur, they are the largest extant members of the family Lemuridae, ranging in length from 100 to 120 cm (3.3 to 3.9 ft) and weighing between 3.1 and 4.1 kg (6.8 and 9.0 lb).
They are arboreal, spending most of their time in the high canopy of the rainforests on the eastern side of the island (Madagascar). They show definite preferences for larger trees, from two to four feet in diameter.
They are also diurnal, active exclusively in daylight hours.
Quadrupedal locomotion is preferred in the trees and on the ground, and suspensory behavior is seen during feeding.
As they are the most frugivorous of lemurs, their diet consists mainly of fruit, although nectar and flowers are also favored, followed by leaves and some seeds.
They have a complex social structure. They live in communities that can range from two to 16 animals; these communities can also break up into sub-groups. Adult females are dominant over males.
They seem to have no trouble communicating with each other, if the loudness of their voice is any indication. Among their many calls is the spectacular and unmistakable "roar/shriek," which is easy to hear over very long distances.
And as if that weren't enough, they also use smell as a way to communicate. Like all lemurs, ruffed lemurs scent-mark their surroundings. Males slide their chin/neck/chest area onto surfaces to leave behind their smell, whereas females scent-mark with their ano-genital (rump) area. Although lemurs do more scent-marking during the breeding season, this method of communication is used throughout the year.
They exhibit several reproductive traits typically found in small, nocturnal lemurs, such as a short gestation period, large litters and rapid maturation. Right before giving birth, a female makes a nest 60 to 80 feet from the ground in a tree. After a three-month gestation (pregnancy), she gives birth. Twins are the most common litter size. Babies stay in the nest for several weeks. Infants don't cling to their mother: when the mother moves them (she changes nest sites regularly), she carries her babies in her mouth.

Although the subject matter is serious, some of the designs sayings are funny, clever, witty, humorous and sometimes irreverent - also available as magnets, zipper pulls and keychains.
