Norwich Castle is home to some of the most outstanding collections of fine art, archaeology and natural history. The entire collections held at Norwich Castle are Designated Collections of national importance.
Norwich Castle Museum and Art Gallery reflects the importance of the city, one of England's richest and largest settlements from the Middle Ages to the 18th century. Some of the displays are in the magnificent Norman Keep, which was built as a royal castle, the most ambitious secular building of its generation in Western Europe.
The museum has comprehensive collections of the Norwich School of Artists, 18th century Lowestoft porcelain and a world-beating assemblage of nearly 3000 British teapots. Prominent amongst the collections are birds and butterflies from around the world, and Britain's biggest, oldest and most complete fossil elephant.
There is outstanding Bronze Age and Anglo-Saxon archaeology and much of the Snettisham Treasure, the largest collection of Iron Age gold neck rings from Europe. The museum reopened in 2001, following an £11.7 million development funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. There is now better access to the collections at the new Castle Museum Study Centre, which is linked to the Castle.

The Egyptian Gallery
- 1 November 2013 — 1 November 2020 *on now
The Egyptian Gallery at Norwich Castle is small but contains a significant collection of artefacts, which were found in Egyptian tombs and donated by wealthy travellers who visited Egypt in the nineteenth century.
Following the death of Henry Rider Haggard (known for works such as King Solomon's Mines) his collection of Ancient Egyptian antiquities were donated to Norwich Castle. Within this collection is a fragment of pottery inscribed with the story of an Egyptian princess, which is described in the novel 'She'. The pottery and inscription are fakes, created especially for the novel, but they succeeded in creating significant intrigue in this period of history, an intrigue which is continued throughout the rest of the gallery which contains artefacts of around 4,500-2,500 years old.

The Art Galleries
- 1 November 2013 — 1 November 2020 *on now
The Colman Art Galleries at Norwich Castle display the museum's world-famous collection of Norwich School paintings. The two galleries have displays, films about the Norwich School, a new touch-screen learning resource and contemporary art.
The 'British Masters' gallery showcases the work of the two leading figures of the Norwich School, John Crome and John Sell Cotman, displaying their greatest masterpieces side by side for the first time.
The Norwich School artists are known worldwide for their depiction of Norwich and Norfolk. The 'Landscape & Nature' gallery focuses on the paintings this celebrated group of artists created in response to the landscape that surrounded them. Their paintings are seen as quintessential portrayals of the region.
Artists today continue to find inspiration in the Norfolk countryside with its broad skies and wide open landscapes. Photographs of the East Anglian landscape by Mark Edwards are on display in the new Colman Project Space.
Normal admission charges apply
Anglo-Saxon & Viking Gallery
- 1 November 2013 — 1 November 2020 *on now
The gallery tells the story of the fascinating period between the withdrawal of the Romans in 410AD and the 1066 Norman Conquest. Dangerous and turbulent, this was also the time when many aspects of modern day English culture took root – the word 'England' derives from the name 'Anglia', the land of the Angles.
Norwich Castle has one of the best collections of Anglo-Saxon material in the country. Designated by the government as being of outstanding quality, the collection contains a huge variety of objects of beauty and historic significance. Over 900 of these treasures are on display in the gallery.
Suitable for
- Family friendly
Normal admission charges apply
The Twining Teapot Gallery
- 1 November 2013 — 1 November 2020 *on now
Many of the Castle Museum's teapots are on display in the Twining Teapot Gallery and range from the elegant to the quirky. They date from the 1730s right through to the 1980s.
In the Twining Teapot Gallery you can see a teapot with two spouts, as well as teapots in all sorts of shapes - a first world war tank, a cabbage, a castle, bamboo and a monkey to give just a few examples. They also come in all sizes (from miniature teapots no higher than your finger to giant teapots longer than your forearm).
Agate Teapot, possibly by Thomas Whieldon, 1745-1750A large proportion of teapots made today are mass-produced. Many of the early teapots in the museum were made and decorated by hand, however - sometimes by children. Other teapots have a 'marbled' appearance which was achieved by mixing different coloured clays together (called 'Agate Ware'). Later on teapots were decorated with transfers - a technique which is still widely used today.
Suitable for
- Family friendly
Adult: £7.95
Concession (over 65s): £6.50
Child (age 4-18 yrs): £5.20
Family (2 adults + all children): £21

The Boudica Gallery
- 1 November 2014 — 1 November 2020 *on now
Learn all about the story of Boudica and the revolt against the Romans, in AD60-61.
The Boudica GalleryBoudica was the great warrior Queen of the Iceni. The Iceni were a deeply religious Celtic tribe who lived in settlements and spent their lives raising crops, managing woodland and tending herds of sheep, cattle and pigs in the area now covered by Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire during the late Iron Age.
Within the gallery you can see re-created scenes, handle objects, take rune rubbings, watch a short video about the Iceni Queen, take a ride on a reproduction wooden chariot of the type used by Boudica as she led her people into battle. And see a wealth of objects from the period.

[Verse 1: Willie the Kid]
Stay afloat, new boats, Hublots
Blue flame, butane, a few hues
The view beautiful, new hoes, infuse bourbon
Cigar burnin', Hermes, my newest burden
Yellow Nuvo, David Yurman shower curtains, conversin'
Bitches nestle, steer the vessel
Yellow diamonds shimmer like the ocean surface
Enjoy dinner by the pier, cuisine Turkish
Marina, this white sand what a souvenir
Lakefronts, niggas fake as Lumineer veneers
A luminary, a visionary, narrow-minded niggas need to not...
Nevermind, I'm a navigator, follow quadrants, I never squander
Or wander about aimless, you niggas proud to be shameless
And that's the problem, my squadron, Lake Michigan, sport fishin'
Or Reeds Lake Lacoste down, coffee brown-black shades
Waves crash, save cash
Matured money, age fast, fast money but the yacht slow
Yacht masters, braised bass
Not a state, a peninsula, it's Michigan
Nothin' sweet, no insulin
Intimate nights, take the boat to the flight
The Fly 3 comin'
Intimidated? You should be, behold the horror
My flow water, rap wise, I'm like, penny wise, copper foamposites
Penny, Penny's
Never penny pinch, paid a pretty penny for the image
Not a blemish, epitome, my kindred spirit
Drinkin' spirits, drive German cars, I'm driven
Pick 'em like geraniums, germane to every issue that I've been in
[Verse 2: Jon Connor]
So here's another miracle as I live out Jesus's parables
Life is funny, hysterical
They say it's lonely at the top
Compared the air up here is unbearable, make it hard to breathe
Trapped in our dreams, so it seems, it make it hard to leave
Shackled to my own thoughts so every track's an onslaught
That'll one day set me free and leave me where I need to be
That be that optimistic airy shit, scary shit
The same hard-headed way a thinkin' that'd be the one that I get buried with
City on my back, the only one strong enough to carry it
City where death is comin', now look how close the cemetery is
We don't wanna make waves or end up where they make graves
A mentality we can't change so we just try to maintain
By maintain, that just means we all remain tame
The world is crazy and the goal is to remain sane
Don't think outside the box, they want us to remain plain
They ain't gon' be happy til we all sharin' the same brain
College is artificial, knowledge used for profit
To fatten the institutions while all we still end up jobless
That's how they got us, like milk and honey was promised
With a degree you ain't shit, and you really ain't shit without it
Look, not to offend anyone who didn't turn the tassel
But I grew up in a home where them loans turned to a hassle
Before the debt is gone they want to go on and get their Master's
It's a distraction
Cause life's not a job, it's what you should master
Who do we follow if not ourselves?
Do we not ourself?
At a nine-to-five workin' to make wealth for somebody else
No matter what I been through, I'm a continue

Ops I've Done It Again!Well you knew I would didn't you? As always, after making a digi lo that I like I have to then make a physical version. So here is my paper lo of the digi I made on Thursday. It is basically the same but I changed the title and added some Heidi Grace flower stickers that I have had hanging around for some time.
I made it at the crop I go to each month. Usually, there are only 4 of us but this month there were 6 and it was lovely to meet new people as well as chat with the old ones.
I also made this lo for the first prompt from the Something From Almost Nothing class that I signed up for last week. The first prompt was to use up some of your metal embellishments so on this page I have used a badge, some photo turns, several brads and some ribbon brads. Although it is called Being Silly - David took one look and said that the title was a misrepresentation as it should have been called 'Being Normal'!
I also almost finished a page for the second prompt which was to use up scraps of patterned paper. I will finish this page and upload it tomorrow.
The suggested theme for the class is Celebrate Life and so I am using an 8 x 8 album and the first page is to celebrate being silly, the second one is to celebrate our little family of 3.
Reasons to be cheerful:
1. As always I have had a wonderful day out with the girls.
2. David has been on an epic journey today but returned safely with the task he had to do finished successfully.
3 I am looking forward to a lie in and breakfast in bed tomorrow. Oh that reminds me that I have to finish the Mother's Day card I am making for David's mum,

Mubarak's release is one of many police officers and criminals already freed under both SCAF and Morsy. The judicial system in Egypt isn't apolitical, there is no neutrality here; what would one expect Mubarak's men and system trying Mubarak do?
On the other hand, Morsy's idea of 'change' in the judiciary during his one year of power was replacing Mubarak's men with his own under the same corruption, but serving MB's interest instead of the old regime.
Now, with Sisi's counter-revolutionary mandate, it is clear that the release of Mubarak is the beginning of many old-regime comebacks; emergency law is only the tip of the iceberg.
The conditions under which Mubarak was released; curfew, emergency law, Sisi's mandate 'to fight terrorism' are all not a coincident to the timing for Mubarak's release even if he was eventually going to be found 'not guilty' and released in this monkey trial.
This is more of a proof that we are facing a counter-revolutionary mandate for the return of the old regime. While the very guilty Muslim Brothers are used as scapegoats, the criminal SCAF is leading counter-revolution smartly and viciously.
Mubarak, Tantawy, Morsy, Sisi; your day will come and revolutionary justice will be served!

Fairview Mennonite Church (Fairview, Michigan, USA)
Fairview Mennonite Church (Mennonite Church (MC)), located in the village of Fairview, Oscoda County, northeastern Michigan, was a member of the Indiana-Michigan Mennonite Conference. The church was organized with 35 members on 2 February 1904. Eli A. Bontrager was the first pastor. In 1953 the church had a membership of 391, under the leadership of Bishop Harvey Handrich. Other ministers who have served the congregation included Menno Esch, N. Z. Yoder, L. A. Kauffman, Moses S. Steiner, Floyd Yoder and Virgil Hershberger; the deacon in 1953 was Otis J. Bontrager. Menno Esch served as bishop 1909-1952 when Harvey Handrich became bishop.
In June 2002 Fairview Mennonite Church withdrew from the Indiana-Michigan Conference and Mennonite Church USA and began an independent Mennonite congregation. The congregation had concerns about issues in the denomination, particularly over "apparent tolerance in the conference concerning homosexuality." In 2011 Fairview remained an independent congregation. The pastor in 2011 was Eldon L. Krider; the membership in 2009 was 259.

Most of you have probably seen Splintered's cover by now, but I wanted to
The cover was designed by Maria Middleton, and given life by the mystical / melancholy artistry of the lovely Nathalia Suellen (aka Lady Symphonia).
My favorite thing of all? That these ladies somehow captured Splintered's eerie yet sometimes kooky mood while still retaining a fairy tale feel. Then they kicked it up a notch and highlighted some pivotal details: the tiny key around Alyssa's neck, and the bugs, flowers, and vines that taunt her throughout the story.
Now that you've seen the outside of my book, here's a peek at the inside. Crank up the volume and enjoy!
And to prove it's not all about me, I'd like to share three other beautiful covers that are eye-candy blips on my visual radar (IOW, so yummy I'm torn between licking them and hanging them on my wall):
Thanks for indulging my cover ❤! What recent covers have caught your attention and/or your imagination?

More Thoughts on Eating at Eataly Chicago
Think I got every single one of my thoughts out about Eataly yesterday? Of course not! Eataly is a big place, and there is so much more to say about it than could ever fit in one post. This post won't complete things, either, but hopefully it will answer a few of the lingering questions about the Italian food mecca.
Free Bread!
Somehow I managed to write about all the different restaurants in Eataly without once mentioning the bread, which is dished out for free at more than half of the spots. The bread is very crusty, and the olive oil served on the side for dipping is nice and fruity. How much I ate depended completely on the restaurant: I needed a second helping at Le Verdure and Il Pesce, while I barely touched it before the carb-heavy La Pasta and La Pizza.
Best ____ in River North
It's kind of astonishing how many things Eataly does well. Even if every dish doesn't completely work, you can tell that genuine thought went into each one. Plus, occasionally this care produces something truly memorable.
Margherita Pizza: While there are some very good pizza options nearby, none has Neapolitan pizza down like Eataly. The crust is crisp and light, making for a fantastic base.
Pasta: Whether you want to get your fix at La Pasta or Baffo, Eataly is serving up some serious pasta dishes. Each offering I tried had serious al dente bite, and was tossed with a bare minimum of toppings.
Gelato: I'm not sure if the gelato is quite the best in the city (I'm going to wait until summer to find out for sure), but it is excellent stuff.
Cooking at Home
The restaurants got all the attention yesterday, but don't forget that Eataly is also a grocery store. Obviously, there is no reasonable way for me to try all of the options—there are around 100 different olive oils—so I didn't really try. But I did pick up a few things along the way, some of which I really loved. It's hard to go wrong with any of the fresh pastas, particularly the ravioli. Twice I picked up some fresh ravioli, a few cans of tomatoes, and was able to put together a quick dinner at home.
La Mozzarella's offering are available at La Piazza, including the very good bocconcini with pumpkin caponata. But don't forget that you can get the freshly made mozzarella to go. I'd like to say that I used it for some wonderful home cooked dinner, but the truth is that my wife and I ate the whole thing straight from the container. The same can be said about the prosciutto and speck I picked up at the Salumi counter.

Are you Driving a Pleasure Car or Death Trap? (Sep, 1934)
Are you Driving a Pleasure Car or Death Trap?
One in every three U. S. cars needs brake adjustments. One in every nine is a potential killer. This story gives the lowdown on the menace of bad brakes and tells you how to avert accidents.
by CARL D. WEBB
TWO men in a heavy touring car were roaring down the Jack Rabbit trail in California. Faster and faster they sped as the dark night and the deserted road lulled the driver into a false sense of security. Suddenly, as he rounded a curve, he saw a dark shape ahead. Frantically he jammed on his brakes and jerked the steering wheel. A wailing scream from the tearing tires— then a terrific crash as the skidding car smashed broadside into the obstruction. The two men in the touring car probably did not live long enough to feel the searing heat of the flames which enveloped their car and the gasoline truck which they had hit.
These two men, one an innocent passenger in the death car, were killed by bad brakes. The unprotected driver of the truck was badly burned. The trucking company lost the truck as well as the load of gasoline. But this is only one of the many accidents in which thousands of innocent people are killed every year through defective brakes. Despite the fact that inventors and designers are working night and day in developing electric, hydraulic, vacuum and air brakes, and that police departments, traffic officers, and safety agencies of all kinds are continuously testing and adjusting brakes, automobile accidents kill nearly ten times as many people annually as do fire-arm accidents.
What would you think if you read in your morning paper that a band of murderers had killed every man, woman, and child in Colorado Springs, Colorado? Doubtless you would be horrified; yet last year automobile accidents in the United States killed more than 30,000 persons.
You can avoid becoming a member of this band of murderers by careful, intelligent use and proper upkeep and adjustment of the efficient brakes on your car.
Science Develops New Equipment
Power brakes, new types of brakes which exert far more pressure than the human foot, are stopping the newest motor cars. Hydraulics, dynamics, air pressure, vacuum, and even electricity and magnetism furnish the power for operating the new and larger brakes, which stop today's high speed, super-power automobiles.
The sign, "Air brakes, keep distance," appears frequently nowadays on the rear of trucks and busses. A touch makes these brakes absorb hundreds of horse power to stop the heavy vehicles. Many of the heavier pleasure cars also have this type of brake— the same as are used on railway trains.
Brakes which are set up by a small electric motor on each wheel are being tested; but the newest power brake is one involving magnetic principles. A ring-shaped electromagnet is attached to the ends of the brake band and a soft iron armature is attached to the brake drum. When a small amount of electricity from the car's storage battery energizes the electro-magnet, it grips the armature which is forced to revolve a fraction of a revolution. This sets up the brake band on the drum and quickly stops the vehicle.
This brake is especially useful on truck and trailer trains. Because electricity actuates the brake system, there is no time lag between the setting up of the truck brakes and the trailer brakes, thus preventing the trailer from over-riding the truck. The controller of this brake merely determines the amount of current sent to the magnets. For this reason it may be operated by a little lever near the steering wheel. A touch of the finger on this lever will stop almost instantly the heaviest truck and trailer train. Like most of the power brakes, although the electric brake, was originally designed for truck use, its ease of operation, simplicity of construction, and its quick, powerful stopping action is rapidly bringing it into favor for pleasure cars.
Although the brake equipment on any new modern car will stop it in a fraction of the legal stopping distance, tests of millions of cars on the highways of the United States show that one in three of the autos being operated needs some adjustment of the brakes. and that one in nine is so bad that it cannot stop within the required limit.
Stopping Distances Prescribed by Law
In how short a distance can you stop your car? Most states have prescribed by law a certain legal limit for your shortest stopping distance. In California, you must be able to stop your car within thirty-seven feet from a speed of twenty miles per hour on clean, dry, level, concrete pavement. This is an unusually lenient figure. Most modern cars equipped with four wheel brakes, even if they are not power brakes, will stop within twenty feet under the same conditions; and if the brakes are unusually good, it is possible to stop within a distance of nine or ten feet.
But do not use these figures as a basis from which to estimate when to apply the brake! Many other factors influence the distance you require to stop. "Reaction time"—the time you take to estimate the situation, to command your foot to press the brake pedal, and finally to do it, may lengthen your stop considerably.
This reaction time varies with different individuals and with the same individual at different times. It is often as long as one-half second. During this time, at fifty miles an hour, you will travel about thirty-seven feet before your brakes begin to slow you down.
Brakes Versus Roadway Surfaces
The surface of the roadway influences the shortest stopping distance a great deal. Tests have shown the following variations in stopping distances when brakes are adjusted to stop the car in about twenty-five feet from twenty miles per hour on smooth, dry concrete:
On muddy concrete or asphalt. . .48 feet
Rough ice or packed snow with chains …………………48 feet
Rough ice or packed snow without chains…………..80 feet
Smooth ice without chains. .. .148 feet
Remember that your stopping distance increases as the square of the speed of your car! That is, with the same brakes, if you need only twenty-five feet to stop from twenty miles per hour, at twice that speed you will need four times the distance, or one hundred feet, to stop. Thus if you are foolish enough to go forty or fifty miles per hour on a smooth, ice-covered pavement, you may travel six hundred feet or more—as far as a whole city block—before you stop, if you do not skid into something and crash first!
Most automobile drivers keep their cars safe by repairing their brakes as soon as they become worn. But this should be done immediately. Brake testing officers have recorded many accidents which occurred after the driver had been warned that his brakes were weak. Such a case occurred recently
when a test showed that a light truck's brakes required more than fifty feet to stop from a speed of twenty miles per hour. The officers cited the driver to have his brakes repaired and retested and he drove away. Within a mile, his soft brakes allowed him to roll onto a railroad track in the path of an oncoming train which hit the truck and killed the driver.
It is not necessary to wait for traffic officers to test your brakes in order to know their condition. If you have to use your emergency brake frequently—if you roll a few feet across the line when the signal turns red—if you often hit the other fellow's bumper when parking—your brakes are not quite good enough.
"The first thing a locomotive engineer does when he gets into the cab is to test his air," an engineer says. "Is your life any more valuable than his? Then test your brakes every time you start out from your garage. You do not need to do this at a high speed. If you can slide all your tires from any speed at all, your brakes are all right."
You can avail yourself of various means of keeping informed of the condition of your brakes. But in the final analysis, regardless of electric or air brakes, regardless of official brake tests, or of unofficial "safety lane" tests, the use of your brakes in an emergency is up to you. Only the driver can decide when to apply his brakes in order to avoid an accident.

Not even the best marketing team can save a movie from a stupid name. Take New Line's Snakes on a Plane. It doesn't come out until August, but it's already a laughingstock. Why the derision? A plot that borders on ridiculous (an assassin releases deadly snakes aboard a flight, terrorizing passengers like Troy, played by Kenan Thompson), coupled with an absolutely artless title. The studio tried to change the flick's name to Pacific Air Flight 121 earlier this year, but star Samuel L. Jackson balked, saying the title was a big reason he signed on. Thing is, the terrible name might end up being the film's saving grace. It caught the attention of meme-happy bloggers who produced songs, apparel, poster art, pages of fan fiction, and even a mock trailer. This attention all but clinches the would-be dud's place in the camp classics hall of fame.

Verbal Farm Rental Agreements Under Missouri Law
Stephen F. Matthews and Myron Bennett
Department of Agricultural Economics
Two parties, a landowner and a tenant, discuss a rental farm, the method of sharing expenses and receipts, and shake hands. They've made a verbal rental agreement. Many agricultural leases are formed this way. Unfortunately, informal verbal leases do not cover the problems and possible conflicts that may arise under leases. It is important for landowners and prospective tenants to know the laws that control verbal and written agreements.
A dispute arises when a disagreement over terms of the contract cannot be settled. This can lead to a costly lawsuit and a loss of valuable farming time. Making a written agreement will not prevent a lawsuit in all situations. But the terms of written agreements are not as subject to dispute as verbal agreements.
This publication deals with problems of lease duration, notice of termination, invalid verbal agreements, subleases and assignments, death of a landlord or tenant, life estates, security for rent, holdover remedies, sharecropper agreements, and the rights, duties and liabilities of both the landlord and the tenant.
With regard to the landlord-tenant relationship, some parts of the law are not clear. Also, landlord-tenant cases are often settled out of court because of the small amount of money involved. Therefore, there are not answers to every question that might arise. Some answers, given by courts, were expressed years ago when farming practices were much different. Courts today might give a different answer.
This publication is merely a guideline to help you understand problems created with verbal agricultural leases. Check with an attorney for legal advice regarding your own situation.
Lease duration
A verbal agricultural lease for less than one year is the same as tenancy at will. It would be specifically enforceable (valid) for the stated time period and is not invalidated by the statute of frauds.
A periodic tenancy, year-to-year, is created when the agricultural tenant holds over (keeps possession of the land) for another year. Common law is applicable to convert a tenancy at will into a periodic tenancy, year-to-year. A periodic tenancy is continuous and of indefinite duration. At each anniversary of the verbal agreement, the lease continues, unless notice of termination is given.
A verbal lease for longer than one year is invalid under the statute of frauds. Under an invalid oral lease, farmland is in a year-to-year tenancy.
These rules are generally applicable to verbal agricultural leases. If the property is not being used for agricultural purposes, a verbal lease that is held over will be considered as a month-to-month tenancy.
Termination of the lease
The important distinction between a year-to-year tenancy and a month-to-month tenancy is the notice required to terminate the verbal agreement. To terminate a periodic, year-to-year tenancy, Missouri law requires that written notice be made by the party wishing to terminate the lease to the other party not fewer than 60 days before the end of the lease. Month-to-month tenancies can be terminated with one month's notice in writing.
The notice to terminate the agreement must be written, even though the original agreement is verbal. If proper written notice is not given, the other party can enforce another term of tenancy.
A Missouri court decided that where the landlord and tenant agreed verbally on a specific termination date, no notice was necessary.
So, if a verbal agreement is to end at a certain time, the tenant must vacate without notice. If no certain time is set for the tenancy to end, the agricultural tenancy will be considered as a year-to-year tenancy, which requires 60 days notice. By special agreement, a landlord and tenant can agree that no notice is required to terminate the lease.
The tenancy begins on the day of the verbal agreement, not on the day possession is given. So, if the parties enter a verbal agreement on March 1, 1981, the last effective date of the lease is Feb. 28, 1982, if the proper notice is given. If there is no termination, the new lease year begins on March 1, 1982. This is important in determining when to give notice.
In Missouri, landlords traditionally rent farmland from and to March 1. There is some indication that southern Missouri landlords rent to and from Dec. 31.
The place where notice is served is not important if it is delivered to the tenant or landlord in person, and if it is received within the specified time. If personal service cannot be made, it is sufficient if notice is left with a member of the family over the age of 15 at the usual place of residence. The person serving notice should retain a copy for his protection. If notice is sent by mail, it could be sent either by registered mail or certified mail with return receipt requested.
Invalid oral agreements
Generally, a verbal agreement to lease land for more than one year is invalid and unenforceable. The one-year period means one year from the time of the making of the agreement, not one year from the time of first possession. So, a verbal lease made in February under which the tenant was to take possession on March 1, and was to run to next March 1, would be longer than one year and unenforceable. If the landlord will not deliver possession, the tenant has no recourse.
Courts will usually enforce a verbal lease for more than a year as a year-to-year tenancy if there has been part performance such as when crops have been planted. The court usually does this to prevent the defaulting party from making use of the written requirement to commit a fraud. When the tenant has taken possession, the full extent of the agreement will be enforced as a tenancy at will, if the court recognizes the doctrine of part performance. The best protection for the tenant would be a written agreement.
Sublease and assignments
Under a sublease, the original tenant retains some rights or obligations in the leased property. Under an assignment, the entire interest is transferred to the new tenant and the original tenant has no rights or obligations under the original lease.
Missouri law specifically denies the tenant the right to assign the lease interest without obtaining written consent from the landlord. This law applies to any tenant with a lease for a period of less than two years, so it would apply to verbal leases. If the tenant assigns the lease to someone without the permission of the landlord, the landlord, after giving 10 days notice, can re-enter the premises.
This law does not prohibit the tenant from subletting. A tenant can sublease under a verbal lease in the absence of a valid and binding agreement prohibiting such a sublease. When the original lease was for farming purposes only, a sublease without the same restrictions has been held void. For example, if the original lease restricted the use of the land by the tenant to the planting of row crops, the sublease must also contain this restriction for the subtenant. Also, it has been held that a tenant from year-to-year has no authority to sublease the farm so as to tie it up with a crop the following year.
A landlord can prevent assignment and subletting by the tenant by entering such a clause in the lease, preferably in writing.
Death of landlord or tenant
Unless otherwise specified, a lease is binding on the heirs of a landlord or tenant. The surviving party and a representative of the deceased party may want to terminate the lease and can do so by mutual agreement.
One of the biggest disadvantages of oral leases is death of a party to a verbal agreement. The law does not permit one party to testify to the terms of a agreement or lease in a court when the other party to the agreement or lease is deceased. This means that survivors may have difficulty proving the contents of the agreement because they cannot testify. For this reason, agreements should be in writing.
When landlord owns life estate
A prospective tenant should determine whether the landlord is the owner of a fee interest or only a life estate in the land. A life estate means the landlord owns and controls the land only for the duration of his life. At death, title to the land is automatically transferred to others as specified in the original deed creating the life estate. However, this does not prevent the life estate owner from leasing interest held in the land. A fee interest is more of an ownership interest than is a life estate. A fee simple absolute is the best ownership interest possible in land.
The tenant must be careful when making the agreement. If an ordinary life estate landlord dies, the tenancy ends because the life estate owner cannot transfer an interest not owned. If the landlord only holds a life estate, the tenant may want the remaindermen (those who take at the landlord's death) to enter the agreement, so the tenancy will continue at the death of the life estate owner.
The tenant must be given the required statutory notice by subsequent owners to be removed from the land. If the subsequent owner forces the tenant to leave, the tenant retains the right to harvest crops planted even though rights of tenancy have been terminated.
Landlord security for rent
The tenant leaving the farm prematurely is still liable for any rent due under the agreement. The landlord has a lien on any crops for the year in which the crops were grown as security for the rent due. A lien is a right or claim on property by a creditor to secure payment of a debt from the debtor. The lien continues for eight months after the rent becomes due and payable. The statutory lien is not only for the protection of the landlord, but it operates as well to the benefit of the tenant. It enables a tenant to secure land without having to provide a security deposit for rent.
The landlord can recover rent due from a person who purchased the crops from the tenant if the purchaser knew the crops were grown on rented land. The landlord can recover from the purchaser only up to the amount of crops the purchaser received from the tenant.
If the tenant endangers the landlord's rent, the landlord may attach by court order any personal property of the tenant. (There are certain exemptions.) The principal advantage to attachment of personal property over the lien on crops is that attachment may be used whenever the rent is endangered (even if the rent is not yet due). The landlord may have a lien on crops only when the rent is actually due.
Landlord remedies for holdover
Failure to vacate
If a tenant willfully holds over after the termination of his tenancy, the landlord has several remedies. The landlord can hold the tenant as a tenant for another tenancy. This is the procedure that creates a year-to-year tenancy. This alternative is not often used.
The landlord can treat the tenant as a trespasser and have him evicted. He can also take the tenant to court under an unlawful detainer action. In this proceeding, if the landlord proves the right to possession, possession will be restored and the tenancy will be terminated.
Under Missouri law, the landlord has the option of holding the tenant liable for double rental value of the premises during any hold over. In most situations, the landlord simply wants possession of the land. Therefore, the unlawful detainer action would be the proper procedure.
Rights, duties, and liabilities of landlords
Entry by landlord
A landlord cannot enter upon the rental premises for any purpose unless that right is in the agreement. If bound to make repairs, the landlord has the right to enter upon the premises. If the tenant has abandoned the premises before the lease has expired, the landlord may re-enter. If the right to re-enter is desired by the landlord, it should be specifically written in the agreement.
Generally, the landlord is neither obligated to repair the premises nor to pay for repairs that may be made by the tenant. This includes ordinary repairs; that is, those necessary to keep the premises in a safe condition. In Missouri, however, it has been held that a landlord gives an implied warranty that a dwelling will be habitable and fit for living at the beginning of the term and that it will remain so during the entire term. This case involved a dwelling in a municipality, but it might be extended to farmhouses so that the landlord would be responsible for the dwelling being in a habitable condition.
Violation of lease
If a tenant violates the conditions of a lease or commits waste (an abuse or destructive use of the property) of the leased premises, the landlord, after giving 10 days notice, can re-enter the premises and take possession. These conditions do not include the nonpayment of rent because there are other statutory remedies, including unlawful detainer and the statutory lien that can be used to collect rent.
Generally, the landlord is responsible for major repair and construction of fences, and the tenant is responsible for ordinary repairs. Again, this is a matter that should be specifically agreed on in writing by the parties.
Rights, duties, and liabilities of tenants
The doctrine of emblements gives the tenant the right to come on the premises and harvest crops planted even though rights of tenancy have expired. Of course, the tenant harvests the crops subject to any lien the landlord may hold against them.
Tenants, who have been given notice to vacate before planting, may not have the benefit of the doctrine. For example, if the landlord gives the tenant notice on Sept. 1, 1980, to vacate on Feb. 28, 1981, the tenant may not be able to recover winter wheat planted on Oct. 15, 1980.
This doctrine might not apply when a new owner buys the premises without knowledge of the rental agreement. This is another good reason for having a recorded, written lease to protect the tenant. If the lease is recorded with the county recorder, a purchaser would automatically be put on notice that the land is leased to the tenant.
Condition of premises
In the absence of a covenant for the tenant to repair, the tenant is not liable for ordinary wear and tear of the premises. The tenant's obligation is, in effect, an implied covenant or promise not to commit waste and to return the premises to the landlord at the end of the term unimpaired by the negligence.
The tenant is not responsible for property insurance of the premises unless it is specifically included in the lease agreement. (Many times, it is included.) If the landlord wishes to require the tenant to carry insurance, the written agreement should be clear as to the kind of insurance and the amount of coverage. Of course, the tenant should carry liability insurance and property insurance for personal belongings.
Destruction of improvements
When buildings or improvements on the premises are destroyed, the tenant is still obligated to pay rent unless the lease agreement relieves the rent obligation. So, if a building on the farm is destroyed by fire, the tenant is still responsible for the full amount of the rent. If the lease provides that the landlord is to keep the premises in general repair, and the destruction is not caused by the negligence of the tenant, courts will sometimes excuse the tenant from the payment of rent when the building has been totally destroyed.
Sale of premises
A sale of the landlord's interest does not terminate the lease if the tenant is in possession under a recorded valid lease, or a lease of which purchaser has knowledge. Sale would simply result in the substitution of a new landlord.
Tenants have the right to remove fixtures they have placed on the land if they can be removed without injury to the land. A fixture is more properly defined as an article of personal property that has been physically annexed to the land or to a building which is a part of the land, and therefore cannot be removed without the consent of the landlord. Examples of fixtures include fences, portable buildings, gas tanks or water lines. The tenant must remove fixtures before surrendering possession, for the right to remove them expires with the tenancy.
Improvements and alterations
In the absence of any express agreement, a landlord does not have to pay for any improvement the tenant may make, including fixtures. The tenant cannot offset the value of the improvement against the rent. Also, in the absence of any express agreement, a tenant has no right to make material or permanent alterations to the land.
Sharecropper agreements
In agreements where the tenant can farm the land but does not have exclusive possession, then the agreements are not leases but are instead sharecropping agreements. These agreements can be oral or written. The right to exclusive possession is the distinguishing element between landlord-tenant and owner-cropper relationships.
No notice is necessary to terminate a sharecropper agreement, for when the crop is harvested, the cropper's rights to the premises are extinguished.
The cropper must exercise reasonable care and diligence in planting, cultivating and gathering a crop. If the use of the land by the cropper results in injury to the crop or to the land, the landlord may be able to recover damages from the cropper.
Why a written lease?
Violation of verbal agreements is difficult to prove and is often reduced to arguments in court. For example, if a dispute arises concerning payment of rent in a year-to-year tenancy, it is the landlord's word against the tenant's. Additional testimonies from witnesses to the verbal agreement may be helpful but do not conclusively prove what was contained in the original agreement.
When they make a written agreement, prospective landlords and tenants are forced to think about and agree upon the essential considerations of the leasing and operating of a farm. Differences of opinion can arise unexpectedly. Time tends to make verbal agreement s hazy while a written agreement is always available for reference and recall. There is also the problem of proving the elements of the verbal agreement since the survivor cannot testify when the other party to the agreement is dead.
There are only a few minimum requirements for a written lease. The basic lease provides the duration of the lease, names and addresses of the parties, the legal description of the property, rental rates, arrangements for payment of rent, and the signatures of each party. In addition, special agreements between parties regarding insurance, repairs, fences, land restrictions, improvements and the landlord's right to re-enter should be included. Any changes made after the contract is signed should also be made a part of the written contract.

Control Structures in Swift
- General Changes
- Loops
- Conditionals
- To Integers and Beyond!
- Wrapping Up
Working with data is difficult if you have to do it in a completely linear manner, which makes control structures a vital part of any programming language. On the surface, the control structures in Swift are the same as those in Objective-C, but once you start to dig a little deeper you will begin to find that they go beyond what was possible before in a number of ways.
General Changes
Like Objective-C, Swift has four main control structures:
- for and for-in loops
- while and do-while loops
- if conditional blocks
- switch conditional blocks
They behave in a similar manner to their Objective-C counterparts but with some key differences you should be aware of.
Parentheses Are Optional
The parentheses that surround the conditionals of the if, for, and while structures are no longer mandatory. Similarly the parentheses that surround the switch expression are also no longer mandatory.
This for loop:
can now be written with less punctuation as:
Braces Are Mandatory
As if to provide a counterbalance, the Swift developers have made curly braces mandatory for control structure blocks that contain a single line of code. An if statement in Objective-C that takes advantage of this shortcut:
has to be fully fleshed out in Swift:
Enforcing the use of braces may be a source of annoyance to developers who like to keep single-line if statements compact, but should result in safer code for many others.
Boolean Conditions
The if conditional in C (and thus Objective-C) behaves in a manner summarized very simply: If the supplied expression evaluates to true then the if block is executed. Where things get complicated is in the number of ways an expression can evaluate to true. The following list shows the variety of positive evaluations:
- A Boolean expression that evaluates to true
- A Boolean expression that evaluates to YES
- A numerical value that is nonzero (positive or negative)
- An object pointer that is not nil
- A pointer that is not NULL
In Objective-C, this allows us to take some convenient shortcuts. For example, testing for nonzero numbers is a common pattern:
Swift relies heavily on protocols to define behavior, and one such protocol is BooleanType. An expression can be used only as a conditional if it conforms to this protocol, and even the humble Int does not conform by default. To use a conditional, you just need to be more specific about what exactly it is you are testing:
This may seem like a pain at first, but is actually a useful way to learn some good programming practices. When we relied on the fact that a nonzero number equated to true, we also assumed that the reader of the code knew our exact meaning. This is acceptable with precise numbers, but could easily get confusing when working with enums or any other types where an assumption is being made that the reader knows the underlying values. The Swift core principle of safety is the likely motive behind these changes; making conditionals more explicit means less likelihood of using them incorrectly and getting unexpected results.
Now that we've covered the general differences, let's look into the four control structures in detail.

A federal appeals court for the first time ruled Friday that U.S. border agents do not have carte blanche authority to search the cellphones, tablets and laptops of travelers entering the country – a "watershed" decision in the court's own terms and one at odds with the policies of the President Barack Obama administration.
The ruling by a divided 11-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is the most significant privacy decision in the digital age following the Supreme Court's ruling last year requiring authorities to get warrants to place GPS tracking devices on suspects' vehicles. Under Friday's ruling, for the first time digital devices are granted limited relief from the so-called "border search exception" of U.S. law that allows international travelers – including U.S. citizens and their luggage and vehicles – to be searched for any reason as they enter the country.
"A person's digital life ought not be hijacked simply by crossing a border. When packing traditional luggage, one is accustomed to deciding what papers to take and what to leave behind," Judge M. Margaret McKeown wrote (.pdf) for the 8-3 court. "When carrying a laptop, tablet or other device, however, removing files unnecessary to an impending trip is an impractical solution given the volume and often intermingled nature of the files. It is also a time-consuming task that may not even effectively erase the files."
In dissent, Judge Milan Smith wrote that the ruling opens the nation's borders "to electronically savvy terrorists and criminals who may hereafter carry their equipment and data across our borders with little fear of detection."
The President George W. Bush administration first authorized the suspicionless, electronics search rules in 2008. The Obama administration followed up with virtually the same rules a year later. Between 2008 and 2010, 6,500 persons had their electronic devices searched along the U.S. border, according to Department of Homeland Security data.
The decision brings to light the friction between the reality that electronic devices have become virtual extensions of ourselves housing everything from e-mail to instant-message chats to photos and our papers and effects — juxtaposed against the government's stated quest for national security.
The DHS's civil rights watchdog, for example, last month reaffirmed the Obama administration's position that travelers along the nation's borders may have their electronics seized and the contents of those devices examined for any reason whatsoever – all in the name of national security.
The San Francisco-based appeals court said that view was too extreme. Under the ruling, border agents may undertake a search of a gadget's content on a whim, just like they could with a suitcase or a vehicle. However, a deeper forensic analysis using software to decrypt password protected files or to locate deleted files now requires "reasonable suspicion" that criminal activity is afoot. The court left rules intact that a "manual review of files on an electronic device" may be undertaken without justification.
"The nature of the contents of electronic devices differs from that of luggage as well. Laptop computers, iPads and the like are simultaneously offices and personal diaries. They contain the most intimate details of our lives: financial records, confidential business documents, medical records and private emails," McKeown said.
The case concerned a California man who, in 2007, crossed the border from Mexico at the port of entry in Lukeville, Arizona. He was immediately flagged by border agents because he was convicted of child molestation and other charges years earlier.
The authorities searched his two laptops and three digital cameras, finding family pictures and other harmless photos.
But agents took his devices to Tucson, some 170 miles away, to perform forensic analyses. Dozens of child pornography pictures were discovered that defendant Howard Cotterman allegedly deleted or had stored in encrypted, password-protected folders.
A federal judge had tossed the evidence, saying the authorities lost the right to examine the gadgets because they removed them from the border area. A three-judge panel of the same circuit ruled in 2011 that taking the gadgets to Tucson didn't matter, and reinstated the evidence.
But the nation's largest appeals court agreed to rehear the case with 11 judges. In Friday's ruling, the majority concluded that it did not matter that the gadgets were ferried to Tucson. Instead, what mattered was whether the government had a willy-nilly rationale to perform a forensic analysis on them.
The court noted that no reason was needed to manually inspect the content of a gadget. But a forensic examination required a "reasonable suspicion."
While the decision seemingly bolsters the digital rights of travelers, the court's pronouncement of reasonable suspicion did not sit well with Michael Price, the counsel for the Liberty & National Security Program of the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University.
The court found enough "reasonable suspicion" based on the facts that Cotterman was a convicted sex offender and frequently traveled to Mexico, a known destination for sex tourism. What's more, adding to reasonable suspicion, under what the court labeled as the "totality of the circumstances," was the fact that some of the files on one of the laptops were password protected.
"We really didn't think there was any reasonable suspicion for the forensic examination," Price said.
Still, he added that the decision was a good one overall in the digital age.
"This rule is really designed for electronic border searches and the fundamental difference between our briefcase and your laptop: The idea that you can hold your entire life in your laptop, not your briefcase," he said. "That is something the 9th Circuit is saying is recognized by the Fourth Amendment."
Smith, who wrote the dissent, said the government should always be allowed to forensically examine seized gadgets at the border, regardless of how reasonable suspicion is defined.
… the majority again seeks to whittle away at the border search exception, this time by conjuring a reasonable suspicion requirement for border searches that employ computer software to search an electronic storage device. Why the use of computer software to analyze a hard drive triggers a reasonable suspicion requirement while a 'manual review' of the same hard drive requires no suspicion, is left unexplained. Although technology may serve as a useful proxy for the intrusiveness of a search today, in the future even cursory searches might be more efficiently conducted by the use of such technology.

Dear all,
I read the admin guide for disaster recovery using NG Backup. As I understand, the main step is use export backup on old server and then do external restore (import backup) on new server. My question is how can I recover messages which sent/recieved between the last backup and the time which old server's crashed. For example:
I already set up LAB with 2 servers. Here are my steps:
at T1 time, I do export backup to /backup/externalbackup/
at T2 time, I send a test mail to account1.
at T3 time, I rsync /backup/ folder from main server to backup server.
at T4 time, I shutdown main server (crash!)
Now on backup server:
- I start Zimbra, turn off realtime scanner. Chang backup path to rsynced folder (I call it /remotebackup/)
- Do import backup from rsynced external backup from main server => it's ok. I get the exact system state as it's at T1 time.
=> Now I want to "restore" the email which was sent at T2 time (duration between export backup (T1) and disaster point (T4)) INTO account1. Could you instruct me?
I tried with:
- "restore deletted account" => no account (because of I didn't delete any account)
- "undelete restore" => no email (because of no deleted flag on email at T2 time, of course).
- "restore on new account" => I can get email at T2 time but on "restored_account1" mailbox (and we need one more mailbox license for this restored_account, don't we?)
Thank and best regards,

In NM 1 drop of blood was enough for Jasper to loose it, and Ewdard has always pointed out that Bella's blood smells good and not just to him. and for survival instincts, 6 grown up vampires in NM wasn't enough to keep Jasper from attacking Bella... so I think the survival theory is moot...
I too, did not give the whole Jasper being near Edward while covered in Bella's blood much thought until the excellent point was brought up here. And true, 6 vampires were not enough to keep Jasper from attacking Bella in NM. But, those 6 vampires/relatives were not trying to kill Jasper. They were trying to separate him from Bella. The wolves however, in BD1 came to the house to kill/destroy everyone who stood in their path. Hence, my reason for thinking maybe Edward could have thought Jasper would keep his control as a survival technique. I could be wrong but I think, for a vampire, survival is more important than feeding.
Oh, I also don't see how Jasper stood in the house or near the house, while all that blood was spilling on Bella's delivery table. But, I do understand how they needed to keep Jasper in or near the house for the wolf fight.
Plus, I think in BD1, in the wolf fighting scene, they kept Robert Pattinson/Edward bloody as a dramatic movie effect.

Your staff listed four choices, including Poland and Argentina. The correct answer re your show was Ag/Argentina. The answer could also have been Poland. Polonium was named for Marie Curie's country.

Dr. Grumpy: "Do you go by Elizabeth? Or do you have a nickname you prefer?"
Elizabeth: "Just Elizabeth. My parents were very poor, and couldn't afford a nickname."
A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
HAHA! How much does a nickname cost?
HAHAHAHAHA! I have an extremely unusual first name (which even worse, brands me as a child of ostensibly drug-addled hippies), which has no nicknames and is not amenable to being shortened. Yet I get asked if I have a nickname at least once a week, and the next time that happens I am totally busting out this line.
Goodness sakes Jadzia, I thought I was the only one. Likewise: MaryJ-infused hippie parents, short name with no nickname and can't be shortened. Only I don't get asked if I have a nickname- I'm too serious a person for that- they *always* say "oh how pretty, what does it mean, where does it come from." Which is really annoying when all you want to do is escape attention, much less reveal the fact that the name originally meant *nothing* and it came from said drug-addled hippies' imaginations.....the middle name is even worse, it's an herb that is used in natural medicine as a laxative for crying out loud! Any wonder why I go by Annie online.....
Dry deadpan wit or kinda missing the boat? It works either way, but I'd loooove it if it were choice 1.
Ari- Definitely dry deadpan wit. Well practiced, too.
Some of the lols are just great! Hopefully made your day better
Jadzia, is it really Jadzia or did you pick your name after Dax? Because that is pretty awesome
That's awesome!
*files for future usage*
I'd love to see that line on nighttime TV. (I'd have the inside scoop where it came from.)
Yepper, the popular names from the 50's all came with nicknames, and if unavailable there was always 'Skipper', and 'Dolly'. Our generation was known for stereotyping, though there were a few names like Robin, Kim, and Jean that left room for ambiguity!
i always liked meeting girls with unusual names. i'd make them repeat it 3 or 4 times and just when they were getting annoyed with me i'd say "it's pretty and exotic, just like you". that got me to second base every time.
Then there was the guy who was such a mean and cheap Dad that he only let his kids have one measle at a time...
We were so poor when I was a kid I had a tumbleweed for a pet.
