In an unprecedented show of solidarity, former president Asif Ali Zardari has condemned the initiation of alleged terrorism cases against Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz workers, asserting the irrefutable fact that every citizen has the democratic right to hold rallies and public meetings. It has to be averred that where the ire and remonstration by PML-N stalwarts was anticipated, the reaction by the establishment entailing booking Shahbaz Sharif, his son Hamza Shahbaz, former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and 50 other leaders of the party under the hyper-bole of terrorism and "inciting" the crowd was beyond just a cautious overreaction and should be addressed for all its oppressive underpinnings.
It stands unquestionable that political activists are the voice of a true democratic process. Suppressing the democratic right of the people to voice their support or dissent is tantamount to a dictatorial crackdown. Where the preamble to the 2018 has been marked with more than a few inconsistencies, the obstruction of many mainstream political parties has been one of the more glaring ones. PPP itself has been surreptitiously buffeted by disruptive elements during a beleaguered election campaign. Where the party has faced more than a few impediments in salvaging even a portion of the election limelight, with Bilawal Bhutto being attacked and PPP rallies being thwarted, it has been strategically side-lined, while PTI has been curiously sailing through with the lion's share of media exposure and assent. Adding such discrepancies to an escalating security situation, it becomes quite dubious that the establishment has foregone reinforcing security measures to instead discouraging political parties - save a few- from campaigning.
So is former president Zardari's assertion just a routine bid to call foul at an election result that might not see PPP gain an effectual majority? With the recent discerning pattern of events that have left the acridest of PML-N critic questioning the rules applied, one can say with conviction that PPP and most of the other mainstream parties are genuinely calling for the right of democratic representation against the status-quo. Where the move is heartening, such evidence of political parties abandoning their political and personal opposition to each other, in a move to defend the institution of democracy signals a palpable shift in the dynamic between the de facto and de jure establishment. Ultimately what is belatedly being recognised -and cautiously rallied against- is that all the political parties – including the current blue-eyed PTI- are sailing in the same commandeered boat, with democracy at half mast.

catching the wind
i started walking again. in the early hours of the morning. i rise before the sun and head out. this has turned into a time of worship for me. i walk to the beat of music feeling the urge to raise my hands in praise. this morning i took a turn towards home and the sun was full on my face, just at this song came on and rang out through the headphones. from all this glory, by david crowder:
In the middle of the mess, there is majesty
In the middle of my chest, is the King of Kings
While the world was waiting on
A change to come along
Light broke in
Coming like a song
All this glory…

Delta will fly hourly shuttle from SFO to LAX
Delta Air Lines is joining the crowded, competitive skies over California with a new business travel shuttle -- and complimentary snacks and drinks tailored to Bay Area tastes.
The airline announced Thursday that it will launch hourly shuttle service between San Francisco and Los Angeles international airports, starting Sept. 3.
The 14 daily flights (in each direction) will depart hourly starting at 7 a.m. Monday-Friday. They will be operated by Compass Airlines, a partner of Delta Connection, with E-175 aircraft that seat 76 passengers -- 12 in first class, 12 in economy comfort and 52 in economy.
Delta plans to have dedicated counters for shuttle passengers, allowing check-in as close as 30 minutes before departure, a representative said.
And, in acknowledgement of this route's competitiveness, Delta will serve a number of California favorites onboard -- complimentary Wente wine, Sierra Nevada craft beer and healthy LYFE Kitchen snacks in all classes of service.
United has 15 flights between Los Angeles and San Francisco on most days. Southwest, American and Virgin America also fly the route.

Why is my phone's battery life so bad?
Episode 1495Bob from
Bob has an LG G5 Android phone and his battery life is really bad. He was thinking about resetting it, just in case there's something running in the background that's wearing it down. Leo says that after two years, it could be that the battery is worn out to the point that it's time to replace it. The good news is, the G5 has a removable battery. But what about his authenticators? Will they stay enabled when he resets? Leo says probably not. They may have to be reenabled.

Today is "Percepto Day." We have to shoot all of the scenes involving the villainous criminal mastermind Percepto today, as his alter-ego, actor David Santiago, is only available for one day. And that's a lot of scenes. This means that for time-saving purposes, we must split up one key sequence in which Professor Jack and his crew confront Percepto and his giant robot (or "robut," to use the proper 1940s pronunciation. And we do). So today we only shoot half of the scene: the half that includes shots of Percepto and his dimwitted sidekick Bigsby, played to the hammy hilt by Richard Melvin. We'll shoot the half that involves Jack and his team next week, and the two halves will be combined in post so that all of the characters will appear to be in the same room at the same time, even in the same shot. That's one nice advantage of shooting against a green screen. Shots can be combined, overlapped, blended, shrunk - you name it - so that everything fits together in a way that looks like the actors are really standing together and talking to one another, as opposed to standing alone and talking to, well, me.
Since the other actors aren't actually here today, I end up reading most of their lines offscreen while David looks off into nothingness and pretends to be trading quips with them. Percepto's dialogue is a bit tricky, as the character speaks in constant alliteration. A typical line: "Primarily, a precautious person would perpetrate a plan to deny the opposition permittance onto the premises." David does a great job with this material, and is an excellent sport. I knew he'd be agreeable when he emailed me last week stating, "10 a.m. is a very civilized call time." And Percepto is a very civilized villain, although we mustn't forget that beneath the gentlemanly veneer is pure evil, as cameraman Aaron reminds us later in the day. As we shoot a scene in which Percepto is in his prison cell and the wall crumbles away behind him, David wonders why he wouldn't turn around to see his escape route before erupting into laughter. Could be because we're running behind and don't have time to set up a reverse shot. But Aaron's answer is better: "Because you're so evil, you don't even need to turn around."
Aside from his innate evilness, Percepto is also characterized by his metallic eyepiece which shoots out a red beam when he is feeling particularly evil. Ironically, this eye covering causes Percepto to lose his depth perception. David gets around the set just fine, through, laughing all the way. In fact, Jeff likes David's diabolical laugh so much that he wants it to run on a loop over the entire end credits. We'll see.
Today also sees the first appearance of the "Bugman," as played by scenic and make-up guy Chuckie Hendershot squeezed into a custom costume designed and built by Steve Tolin. At the producers' request, I cannot post any photos of the bug suit at this time. So you'll have to settle for a picture of Chuckie in more casual attire (above). He is quite possibly the skinniest man I've ever met, which makes him ideal for slipping in and out of the rather constricting monster costume. I suspect that Steve keeps Chuckie locked in his basement, feeding him only scraps, lest he gain a couple of pounds and no longer be able to fit the suit.
But Chuckie's miniature size isn't the only reason he's perfect as the Bugman. Once inside the costume, he is every bit the actor as anyone else performing in front of the cameras. He creates the distinct walk and the head and arm movements for the creature, which add much character and menace. One feature of the costume that Chuckie can't control are the jowls or mandibles, which Steve operates by remote control, like a radio-controlled car. However, today there seem to be some conflicting signals in the air: at one point the creature's jaws go haywire before Steve can even press a button. We wonder if the studio managers upstairs are turning radio knobs and having a laugh at us.
Chuckie isn't the only crew member to suit up and jump in front of the camera today. The actor originally cast as the deranged scientist Dr. Haskin can't make it this evening. So Joe Tolin, our key environmental design artist, steps into the character's shoes (as well as the rest of his costume) to play the spaced-out doctor.
An article about our shoot appears in today's edition a local newspaper called the McKeesport Times. Yesterday, a mild-mannered reporter visited the set, took a few photos and interviewed Jeff, Nathan and Steve about the movie. And today, his article misquoted them all. Actually, he just really oversimplified everything. To say that the piece was written in layman's terms would be an insult to laymen. As Jeff put it, the article "was written for people who've never heard of movies." And to use some more '40s vernacular, see you in the funny papers.

Spain PM: Bailout request is not imminent
Spain's prime minister denied Tuesday that he was ready to request a bailout for the country, fending off mounting speculation that a move to ask the European Central Bank to buy Spanish bonds and push down the nation's high borrowing costs was near.
Mariano Rajoy was asked by reporters whether a Spanish bailout request was imminent, and whether it could come as soon as this weekend. He responded no to both questions.
Spain is under pressure to ask for financial assistance to help lower its borrowing costs. But Madrid has hesitated making the move, concerned that the austerity and spending conditions imposed on the recession-hit country would be too much to bear.
Also Tuesday, ratings agency Moody's Investors Service said it would announce the outcome of a review of Spain's sovereign debt rating this month. Moody's had been due to issue the report by the end of September, with many analysts predicting Spain's rating would be reduced to junk.
That would hurt Spanish markets because many pension funds and banks would have to sell Spain's bonds from their portfolios and desist from buying them at auction. That, in turn, would force Spain to pay higher rates to borrow money, further hurting its finances.
The country is in its second recession in three years with an overall unemployment rate of nearly 25 percent, and social unrest is on the rise. The Labor Ministry announced Tuesday that he number of people registered as unemployed in Spain rose by a little under 80,000 people to 4.71 million in September as the summer tourism season came to an end and businesses let workers go.
Rajoy, who has pushed through nine straight months of tough austerity measures, also met Tuesday with the leaders of Spain's 17 regional governments about the economic crisis and the latest austerity measures. The regions, some of them heavily indebted, are being forced to push through government cutbacks affecting cherished national health care and education.
Associated Press writer Ciaran Giles contributed from Madrid.

Last year, the Rhythm Foundation and Heineken's TransAtlantic Festival brought together the Afrobeat extravaganza of saxophonist and bandleader Seun Kuti and the modern-day cumbia stylings of Quantic and Combo Bárbaro.
You might think it would be hard to follow that kind of lineup. But maybe that's what makes the Rhythm Foundation organizers so successful at plugging Miami into the international music scene: They don't think about the borders or distances between; they just make it happen.
So not only is TransAtlantic fest back for another edition but the concert series has doubled the number of events it will be hosting and added two additional venues in downtown Miami and Wynwood.
UPDATE Bomba Estéreo's Liliana Saumet talks world music and the TransAtlantic fest: "We used to look North. Now the Anglo world is looking at us."

There is no better way to launch four days of multicultural partying than Thursday, April 4, at Brickell's Blackbird Ordinary with Psychic Mirrors, the Miami-based funky Latin disco mega-ensemble that has its finger on the Magic City's racing pulse. And odds are, the Mirrors are partly responsible for just keeping its heart beating with all those gotta-dance, smooth groove bangers and ballads.
Heineken TransAtlantic Festival 2013 Kickoff Party. Featuring a live performance by Psychic Mirrors and sounds from DJ Contra. Thursday, April 4. Blackbird Ordinary, 729 SW First Ave., Miami. Doors open at 10 p.m., and there is no cover. Call 305-672-5202 or visit rhythmfoundation.com.
And then it's off to the North Beach Bandshell on Friday, April 5! The TransAtlantic Festival's signature beachside venue adds a great deal of charm and character to the already dynamic lineups curated by the Rhythm Foundation. How does a little electrotango sound for a Friday-night playlist? The mega-fusion sounds will be cranking courtesy of Argentine and Uruguayan collective Bajofondo. And we imagine tango infused with a lil' uhntz-uhntz would be a huge hit on the sands of North Beach.
Bajofondo. With The Hongs. Friday, April 5. North Beach Bandshell, 7275 Collins Ave., Miami Beach. Single-night tickets cost $23, and weekend passes cost $35 via flavorus.com. Call 305-672-5202, or visit rhythmfoundation.com.
On Saturday, April 6, the ante gets upped by a trio that's made it a personal mission to get every party person within reach soaked in their own ecstatic sweat. Bogota, Colombia's Bomba Estéreo meld the folk sounds of cumbia with the urban edge of hip-hop and techno. That same evening, solo artists Zuzuka Poderosa and Kush Arora will be performing a joint set of equally cross-pollinated Brazilian baile funk. This night of the festival is where the Rhythm Foundation overlaps most with Miami's proud tradition of twerkin' booties and brain-pounding bass.
Bomba Estereo alongside Zuzuka Poderosa & Kush Arora. With Krisp. Friday, April 6. North Beach Bandshell, 7275 Collins Ave., Miami Beach. Single-night tickets cost $23, and weekend passes cost $35 via flavorus.com. Call 305-672-5202, or visit rhythmfoundation.com.

Carolyn's Faith Story
Carolyn's story coming soon!
My Divine Connection with God
In January of 2009, Carolyn Crow's world was shattered in a matter of minutes. As her husband, Joe, slept in his hospital bed, Carolyn met with his doctor and received an unexpected announcement: Joe had aggressive bladder cancer. Suddenly, Carolyn's life was diverted from its course as she and Joe faced the unknown with just one weapon: their unwavering faith in God. In her devotional, she highlights her up-and-down moments and describes how God sustained her during a tragic experience. Carolyn candidly recalls her pain as she helplessly watched her husband suffer and her joy at witnessing him demonstrate his faith until his last days; she also shares how she eventually found a path of restoration as she learned to live without her husband of thirty-one years. As she walked on a seemingly never-ending path of grief and sought answers to her many questions, Carolyn relied on her divine connection with God to experience his healing power, rediscover herself, and embrace a joyful life again. Included with her powerful, heartfelt devotionals are applicable Scriptures and room for personal reflections. My Divine Connection with God shares a message of hope and healing that encourages anyone facing life-changing challenges to remember that God is good, steadfast, and always present.

Old Vivaldi icon - how to change it back
burbuja last edited by burbuja
Is there a possibility to change back the new Vivaldi-icon to the original unrounded one?
zaibon last edited by zaibon
Yep, this is possible (maybe you'll need to change this after every update but I don't know for sure so better make a backup copy of your new-old logo)
Go to:
vivaldi://aboutcopy the path behind "Profile Path" (it should end with /Default) close vivaldi and open that path. In that folder there is another folder called "Web Applications" in this folder again are a few other folders (with cryptic names) one of them contains a file called "Vivaldi.ico" that's the one you want to change.
In case this doesn't work as expected better make a copy of the icon with rounded corners also.
Because I don't use any dropbox etc stuff I uploded the old Vivaldi.ico to this site: https://workupload.com/file/2ymAmu3
Size of the file 199,39kb although - as I just tested - the site says something about 204.17 KB dunno but it's the correct file.
@zaibon Thank you a lot! I will try this. I did this change before, but in:
c:\Program Files\Vivaldi snapshot\Application\1.12.955.3\resources\vivaldi\resources
which worked only partly - in the Windows-Taskbar, but not in the title-bar.
I just tried, the icon does not change in the title bar.
zaibon last edited by
@burbuja Damn, somehow I managed to erase the first sentence of my post in which I stated that this'll only change the taskbar icon -.- sorry for that. Maybe there is a way to change the title bar icon as well but I don't know how.

I made this code a while back to keep the clean vivaldi icon in snapshots but it seems this code makes sense for stable builds now too.
But in this case you'll have to patch vivaldi every time a browser update is installed. That's really inconvenient, especially if you have just some small interface changes like that icon.

@luetage I mean, Vivaldi should not touch the profile. Vivaldi´s behavior is strange.
@burbuja The code is saved to the application itself, and the application is replaced on update. The data in your profile path is generally save, if it doesn't get corrupted or something.

@luetage said in Old Vivaldi icon - how to change it back:
The data in your profile path is generally save
I did not use yet the css from you, I replaced the vivaldi.ico file in the profile:
c:\Users\Familia\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\User Data\Default\Web Applications\_crx_mpognobbkildjkofajifpdfhcoklimli
Edit: there is also Vivaldi.ico.md5 checksum file, may be it is corrupted from the point of view of vivaldi. It probably checks the cheksum, which is encrypted. The one I generated it is not, of course.

@oddmorning Hey. Where do I put this line? I tried putting it in common.css, but that did not work (not exactly good at this sort of thing).

Fisher River Cree Nation has a population of 3879 (as of June 2017). After an initiative by Health Canada in 1989 to look at the high rates of Aboriginal family violence, the Chief & Council submitted a proposal to develop a CMHC (Project Haven) shelter in the community of Fisher River Cree Nation. In 1991, the building, now known as the First Nation Healing Centre, was completed. The shelter received its first clients in February 1992. The shelter is managed by the Fisher River Cree Nation, with the Chief & Council serving as Board of Directors. It has eight bedrooms with a total of 28 beds and three family rooms. Operational funding comes from Indigenous & Northern Affairs Canada, which flows through the Fisher River Cree Nation administration; other funding sources are obtained for programming, specific items, and/or services
Our Mission
The mission of First Nation Healing Centre is to provide a community resource for women and children who are victims of violence
The Centre will provide a safe environment, housing with services, and will address the women and children's physical, mental, social, emotional and spiritual needs. To assist the male, supportive counselling to address the physical, mental, social, emotional and spiritual needs will be provided on a non-residential /outreach basis.
The First Nation Healing Centre is a short-term crisis shelter used mainly by Aboriginal women and has 8 bedrooms. Located in the community of Fisher River Cree Nation, it is 240km north of Winnipeg.
The First Nation Healing Centre is one of four shelters located in First Nation Communities. The other shelters are in Mathias Colomb First Nation, Shamattawa First Nation, and Norway House Cree Nation.
The First Nation Healing Centre is a member of the Shelter Networking Group; which started formally in 2008. This group is for the benefit of On-Reserve Shelters.

Godaddy Review: Based On Personal Experience
I purchased my first domain years ago from Godaddy because it was recommended by my boss as the time. I am so scared of internet scams and since you are not getting a tangible service you tend to want to stick with services recommended by people you know.
Over the last ten years or so I continued to use Godaddy for my domain purchases and later migrated to using their web builder and hosting. This review is my honest opinion and overview of their services.
I will try to break down their services into four sections:
- Their domain registration
- Their website builder
- Their hosting
- Support/customer service
Godaddy Domain Registration Review
This online registrar is probably the best known for registering a domain. You get a free email address with every domain you register and their domains are very competitive.
It is quite easy to edit your domain zone file and point your domain elsewhere. This way you can host with Godaddy while building your site with another such as Webs, Weebly, Wix, Zoho or any other free website builder or blog.
Godaddy also allows you to recover expired domains. When your domain subscription expires you are given a grace period in which to pay. If you missed your deadline you can recover the domain at a later date but the domain will not be live.
I recommend this service as I have had no problems with their domain registration so far.
What platform do you use to build your website?
Goddady Website Builder Review
You have three options for website builder which comes with free hosting and a free domain. They tend to offer a lot of free stuff to catch the customer but beware when checking out not to be fooled into adding features to your purchase or you may end up paying more than you bargain for.
The good thing is that you can delete stuff from your cart just before paying.
The website builder is drag and drop but tend to get messy if you are not careful. They do not offer login features for your website and their economy account only lets you add five publishable pages.
Though the finished product can look great the features are limited.
I do not recommend this service. If you need to build a website and you are low on cash, choose a free web builder such as Zoho, Yola, Webs, Weebly, Wordpress or Wix, then point your domain there. All you need to do this the services will provide.
Are you satisfied with your hosting provider?
Godaddy Hosting Review
Godaddy offers great hosting packages to suit the pocket. Their ultimate hosting even comes with a free SSL certificate, unlimited domain hosting and unlimited email addresses for your domain.
As I mentioned before they offer a lot of free stuff and the prices are really hard to beat. With the hosting comes the option of installing different kinds of scripts/applications for building your site. Some of these scripts include Drupal, Joomla,Wordpress and more. These three are the most popular and my personal favorites.
However, beware of purchasing Godaddy hosting as they tend to have frequent server errors. They go offline very often and you may not be able to access your site.
Adding domains to your hosting plan is a hassle as well. Though your ultimate plan says you can add unlimited domains your original domain will prevent your other domains from working seamlessly. I found that Hostgator and Justhost function better.
I do not recommend this service. You have several options for using these premium scripts to build your site. You can download the Drupal cPanel to your desktop and build your site yourself then purchase a hosting plan elsewhere, then upload your files through an Ftp client. Or purchase hosting that allows you to install a script so you can build your site live.
I recommend iPage, Hostgator and A2 (recommended by Drupal).
Godaddy Support/Customer Service Review
Customer service and support should be a major factor in purchasing any goods or service. If you are purchasing a service online where you are not getting something you can hold in your hand then it is of utmost importance that you have the best customer support so you in turn can offer great service.
Godaddy has the worst support services ever for any hosting company I have used. They do not reply to some of your query and when they do it's the wrong answer or something totally off topic.It seems to me that the people who offer support at Godaddy have no idea how to fix problems. Oftentimes it takes quite a number of queries and cancellation threats before getting the correct response.
I definitely do not recommend Godaddy for building or hosting your website.
Godaddy is my webhosting company too on my very first site and I just got my 1 year subscription for only $2 which is pretty affordable. I used coupons. Great Review!
Thanks for this review. It is always good to hear from someone who has experience with a service like this!
Thanks for all this information. I also built my own site years ago and now I'm having trouble with Blogger. Voted up.
Very thoughtful of you to share your experiences with GoDaddy. The reasons for your opinion are very clear. Voted Up.
I only use them for Domain Registration. A better company for this is NameSilo which is also in Phoenix. You can't really place too little emphasis on 24/7 telephone support when you need it most. Many Registrars only offer email support and that's all fine until a real problem happens and you really wish you had a telephone number to call. GoDaddy plays a lot of tricks with upsells and pricing. It's hard at times to find coupons for renewal but they are out there. NameSilo plays no such games, same price all the time and no ridiculous charges for privacy. The primary reason I don't move everything to NameSilo is diversification in case something goes south at any given registrar. For hosting there is no way I'd use GoDaddy - very restrictive in what kind of scripts you can run and I do not like their custom panel.
Hey Cardisa, Thank you very much. I was planning to hire their services for my clients. After reading this hub, I am keen on continuing with my current provider as Server up time is 99.99% and other facilities are also there. Well price is a little higher but I look for my customers' satisfaction. Thanks again for your insightful review.
I have a good time with godaddy. I have never had a high traffic website with godaddy, so I can't really address their reliability. I have also a lamp setup that is a much better option than godaddy but it is not live. It is just for production. A live server at work/home is best.
Ah maybe someday I'll have the confidence required to try this stuff....as it is ...I'm just trying to type text into boxes, and hope I can say something someone will want to read :)
Thank you for this review.

Streaked Spinefoot ( Siganus javus )
Common Name: Java Rabbitfish, Spinefoot
Local Name: Samaral, Alama, Barangan (Tagalog); Danggit, Kitong (Cebuano)
Max Size: 53 cm
Biodiversity: Marine, Brackish, Reef Associated,
Depth: 0 – 15 m
Fishing Season: All Year Long
Minimum Size Limit: none
Recommended Bait: Banana, Rice, Seaweed
IUCN Red List Status: Least Concern (LC)
This is one of the many species of Rabbitfish that inhabit Philippines waters. They are primarily on algae and are not targeted as a sport fish in the country. Instead they make a good food fish and subsequently are targeted by anglers using bait. Local angler have two main methods of catching these fish; one is with small hooks attached to a float that are baited with cooked Saba (cooking banana, similar to a plantain) or glutinous (sticky) rice. The other method used involves a rig designed to snag the fish with big hooks that are positioned around the bait which is usually a piece of banana.
Rabbitfish are also known as Spinefoots because of their venomous spines. Care is needed when handling these fish because a small prick on the finger from the spines on a Rabbitfish can leave a throbbing pain for quite a while.
These fish are a good food fish and have a firm though somewhat soggy texture. In Cebu they are often stuffed with onions, tomatoes and spices and grilled. Their thick skin helps keep the fish from falling apart while grilling. Rabbitfish have been successfully cultured in ponds and though not an ideal culture fish.
Small Rabbitfish make good bait for large reef associated predators such as Giant Trevally.

Flybarless collective rotor head modification I
making the main body
making the cyclic control system
an introduction to electronic components
building an airborne video system
In order to get an additional channel for the pitch control, the receiver ( GWS-R4P ) being used in my helicopter must first be modified. what needed to do is just soldering a signal lead at pin11 of the IC located at the front side. Also, a positive and a negative lead are also needed.
After the modification, what I got is a very light-weight, low-price, 5-channel micro receiver. It is really worth to own one. I place the connector of the new channel next to that of the channel one's:
OK. Let's move on to the rotor head. As I mentioned before, fiberglass circuit board is chosen to construct the rotor head. The idea is to use two precise rectangular holes on two plates to house the ball bearings firmly. By this way, a blade holder is formed which is attached on the horizontal shaft by a set screw ( not by nuts ). It it very important to make sure that the blade holders won't come off during flying. The areas below the set screws are thus lightly filed.
The metal bar inserted in the collar came from a motor shaft which is 2mm in diameter. On each blade holder, a 0.8mm needle is inserted at the lower plate which serves as the skeleton for the metal ball.
The pitch control is managed by CCPM in which the output of the elevator, aileron and pitch servo are mixed in various ways to obtain the control response. the pitch of the blades is thus controlled by the swashplate moving up and down. Here is the servo arrangement on my helicopter:
Below is a photo showing how the Pitch servo is attached on my helicopter. One important point is that the servo arms of the three servos must have the same length. If you have visited the page "installing the servo". you would know that there is a supporting fiberglass part behind the main shaft holding tube. It has now acquired one more function (i.e. support the new pitch servo)
Ideally, the three servos used in CCPM mode must be the same model as equal servo speed and deflection range is crucial for proper control functionality. As a matter of weight and size, a GWS pico servo which has almost the same speed and torque is used for the pitch control instead of a Hitec HS-50 that used for aileron and elevator.

WRSI Helmet Fitting
Fitting your WRSI Helmet *2016 Models and older*
The adjustments are the same on Current Water ABS Plastic Helmet, Trident or Moment Full Face Helmet from WRSI. A snug fit allows the helmet to work the way it is intended. Below is a step by step look at all the adjustments within the WRSI helmet.
Step 1 Initial Fit:
Put the helmet on your head without any of the fitting foam inside. If you feel pressure points on your temples or sides of your head this helmet shell size may be too small for you. If this is the case, your best option is to find a different helmet because the shell is too small. If this isn't an option, you can also remove a small amount of the outfitting foam within the helmet.. this will compromise the comfort & ideal functioning of the helmet. If the helmet doesn't give you any pressure points but feels loose. Move to step 2
STEP 2 Using the Fit Kits to get an Ideal Fit
You'll want the fit kit that came with the helmet. It should contain 2-3 thicknesses of foam for the front of the helmet and 4-6 "L" shaped pieces of foam for the sides of the head. In addition, there may be some extra sticky back velcro and a small piece of foam that wraps around the chin buckle (shown in the middle top of the picture. Scissors can be useful for fitting the foam.
Look inside your helmet you should see a large black soft foam liner running over the interior of the helmet. This should fold away from the helmet around the temples, at the back of the helmet, & also at the forehead. At these locations, there should be some velcro attached to the plastic interior shell of the helmet which is where you will add the additional fit kit foam if you need them. See pictures below:
Using the provided fit kits, you can mix and match the foam to get a snugger fit on the front and sides of the helmet.
Note: these are one-size fit all Kits, you can cut down the fit kits to give a more personalized fit. Some folks have more oblong narrow
shaped skulls others have wider flatter ones. Your goal is to have a even fit, no added pressure points. You can also double up the foam in areas that need more padding.
Once you have a good fit on all sides of the Helmet. Move on to Step 3
STEP 3 Adjusting the Neckpiece so that the helmet doesn't roll back on your head.
Once again take a look inside your helmet, at the back of the helmet if you pull away the interior soft foam pad you should see, 3 sets of holes. You should also see the plastic neck adjustment shown above. It is possible that the helmet is already set up with the neck piece inserted into one set of holes. If you need to move it to a different set of holes you will need to apply a fair amount of pull to get the part out.
My suggestion on figuring out the correct positioning of the Neckpiece is to try several settings but only up one of the tabs into the holes on the back of the helmet. This keeps it in place to test fit but is much easier to remove if you want to try various settings. In each setting, once you have the one set of tabs in place. Put the helmet on your head. Hold the chin strap tight or clip it and snug it around your chin. Now push up on the underside of the visor. The helmet should stay covering your forehead, and still allow you good vision out the front. Once you have found the correct hole setting that does this bend the second set of tabs to fit in the holes and this will lock the fitting in place. Once this is set move to step 4.
Step 4 Adjusting the Chin Strap & Tilt of the helmet.
Take another good look at your helmet, this time focusing on the strapping system that runs around the chin, up in front and in back of the ears and then all around the neck of the helmet. You can adjust the tilt of the helmet forward or back on the head to either further keep the helmet down over your forehead or to slightly lessen the tilt down on your forehead to give you better vision. Before you do this look at the clasp that attaches around your chin, you should see a small rubber stopper just up from the male end of the clasp. Pull this rubber stopper up out of the way of the webbing so that you can cinch the helmet tighter around your neck. (NOTE: you will need this rubber stopper to keep the helmet tight around your neck once you have made the next set of adjustments, but having it out of the way initially will help you make these adjustments).
To adjust the tilt of your helmet you can either shorten the front strap that runs in front of your ear or lengthens it by rotating the strap around the helmet. Shortening the strap gives you a forward tilt to the helmet, lengthening it gives you a backward tilt. In addition, you can pull the excess strap out from around the back of the neck to tighten the helmet further onto your head. Play with this adjustment system till you feel that the helmet once clipped around your chin, stays in place even when you shake your head. The helmet should allow for good vision, and also not move off your forehead when you apply pressure upward on the visor. Now replace the Rubber stopper over the nylon strap just past the chin clip. This will lock the helmet chin clip in place preventing it from loosening.
IN THEORY IF.. at all of the 4 steps above you got a secure fit then your helmet should be locked and ready for play.
If you are still having trouble feel free to come into the shop and have the staff help you get a good fit. Sometimes additional foam may be required to pad out a helmet sufficient

Credit Card Chips
- Casey Hamm
- January 11, 2016
Credit Card Chips
We've all done it – we get to the register and we swipe…
And then the cashier tells us "Oh your card is chipped, put it into the reader…
And we do and we twiddle our thumbs for 15 seconds until the transaction is complete!
And if you haven't received a credit card replacement for a shiny new chipped one, you'll get one soon…
Those chips are called an EMV chip (EMV stands for Europlay, MasterCard and Visa)…
And you get those computer chips to keep hackers from getting access to the data in your card's magnetic strip…
Yup. Crazy right?!
But be careful – you may get one in the mail and not know!
"It would have looked like junk mail," one woman stated…
It probably did for you too, and in the midst of a busy day, you most likely shredded the envelope.
With that being said, you will likely receive a credit card with an EMV chip and according to specialists, here are the 6 main things to know about these fancy chips you're swiping!
- The reason we're getting chip-enabled cards: The U.S. is just following the lead of European countries who adopted the EMV technology years ago to help prevent thieves from cloning credit cards. The chip offers a one-time transaction code so hackers can no longer access all of the data via the magnetic strip. If a hacker gets the information with the chip, it's only the one time transaction code.
- EMV cards require patience: Instead of swiping your card, with an EMV card, you dip it into a reader. Once your card is inserted, the terminal will let you know when it's approved. It's not as fast as swiping a card, so be patient.
- You need to watch your mail closely: Some companies are sending out the new cards automatically and some are waiting until your card expires so if you want one of those now, you have to call the company. If you haven't received a new card or information about one (or missed the mailing), call your card issuer and ask them if your old card will still be accepted. It could save an embarrassing encounter in the checkout line.
- Don't worry if you have an EMV card but a retailer you visit doesn't have an EMV reader: The new cards also have the magnetic strip, so they can still be swiped.
- Some EMV cards are safer than others: Only about 40 percent of the cards are supporting chip and PIN capabilities, which is more secure since you have to input your PIN for those. USAA, Wells Fargo, Barclay and American Express are among those issuing chip and PIN cards, she added. If you're using a new chip-enabled debit card, it is chip and PIN.
- You still need to remain diligent: Although the new chip-enabled cards have been almost 100 percent effective in reducing the problem of cloning cards. You still need to monitor your credit card accounts and credit reports.
***Also, a chip card won't protect you from fraudulent online purchases, since the chip isn't used in those transactions

How to Make Effective Employee Training Improvements
Making effective training improvements is vital for the long-term success of your company. Training programs that produce results need to be a goal and making certain that all your training is also effective improves your operational results. A thorough and systematic approach will yield you the best results, and this approach can also be used to create all your new training programs. Deciding to make effective improvements to your training programs takes planning, and implementing your process requires commitment and effort from everyone involved.
Conduct a training needs assessment for your training programs. Review all of your programs, and compare learning objectives to company needs. Compare learning outcomes to company plans. Seek measurable and observable performance measures of your training programs.Research evaluations for all training programs. Evaluate every training program, and eliminate those that do not produce tangible business results.
Complete a task analysis for all training programs, both old and new. Write observable and measurable performance objectives for each program. Validate each objective with subject matter experts to ensure that training is needed and measured for results properly. Complete task analysis and arrange objectives by training topic.
Create your training programs based on your new learning objectives and task analysis. Develop the programs with plenty of trainee practice and interaction. Create programs that include student evaluations and feedback designed into it. Finalize development and produce training materials.
Pilot test programs with a representative sample of trainees and management involvement. Review programs at completion and obtain feedback from all participants. Make adjustments to the programs based on the evaluations and feedback.
Implement the new programs to the rest of the company. Roll them out slowly and review participant evaluations. Monitor the effects of training on business objectives to determine if programs are working and should be continued. Observe trainees on the job to verify they are using new skills. Continue monitoring programs and make adjustments as needed.
- Programs that are not tied to business objectives will not work effectively.
- Be certain that all training programs contain evaluations to measure effectiveness.
- Involve upper management early in the process to obtain buy-in and commitment.
- Have managers attend training in first class to show support and enable reinforcement

Hi all,
I'm on the hunt for a new critique partner. For one reason or another I have not been able to find what I'll call a "steady" critique partner. I have managed to find one-time critique partners through SCBWI and other organizations over the years, but have not found someone I can count on for more than one project. The demands of my day job are such that I cannot make it to local writing group meetings. Therefore, I am hoping I can find a critique partner online.
My ideal critique partner:
-has been writing for several years
-has written more than one novel
-has the goal of being traditionally published
-writes on a regular basis, whether that is every day or once a week
-reads a lot of YA as well as other genres (a book a week or every 2-3 weeks)
-writes contemporary YA, YA romance, or historical YA (not fantasy, sci-fi, or dystopian). This is a wish list item, not a must have. At minimum you should have an appreciation for YA.
-gives constructive criticism in a way that isn't hurtful
-provides feedback in a timely manner
-is able to line edit as well as provide big picture feedback
-can work via email and/or Skype and does not need to meet in person
-can critique query letters, synopses, and manuscript pages if need be
If this sounds like you and you are looking for a critique partner please contact me! Tweet @odeliaemmanuel or email odelia[dot]emmanuel@gmail[dot]com

Looking for long haul critique partner
Critique partners are worth their weight in gold. So (checking financial page) like $20,000 a pound.

Baddesley Ensor is a former mining village situated about 7 miles from Nuneaton and 2½ miles from Atherstone.
Churches & Religious Buildings
Baddesley Ensor derives its name from the Saxon baeddes leah and the addition of Ensor comes from Thomas de Ednesouere in around 1300. The village was called Bedeslei in the Domesday Book of 1086 meaning 'a priests clearing in the forest'.
There were mining activities in the area for centuries before the two main shafts, which formed Baddesley Colliery, were sunk in 1850. Although called Baddesley Colliery it was actually just over the border in Baxterley. From then until the pit closed in 1989, most Baddesley men worked in some capacity at the mine. The worst disaster at the mine occurred on 2nd May 1882 when a fire was followed by an explosion. Twenty-three men lost their lives in attempting to rescue nine nightshift workers trapped by the fire. A memorial to all the men who worked in the mines, in the form of a pit head winding wheel, was erected on the common at the site of the old Maypole pit, opposite to the Maypole Inn. Since the closure of the mine the village is mainly residential.
Baddesley Ensor is also renowned for its common. St Nicholas Church contains the Latimer Pulpit where the protestant martyr, Bishop Latimer, preached shortly before he was burnt at the stake in 1555.

Workshop on Stratospheric Sudden Warming
and its Role in Weather and Climate Variations
February 22(Wed)-24(Fri), 2012
Kyoto University , Kyoto, Japan
Invited Speakers:
Isamu Hirota (Kyoto U., Japan), Karin Labitzke (Free U. Berlin, Germany),
Taroh Matsuno (JAMSTEC/U. Tokyo, Japan), Michael McIntyre (U. Cambridge, UK),
and Alan Plumb (MIT, USA)
Mark Baldwin (NWRA, USA), Ted Shepherd (U. Toronto, Canada),
and Shigeo Yoden (Kyoto U., Japan)
Sponsored by
Kyoto Univ. GCOE-ARS, and Kyoto Univ. Foundation
Stratospheric sudden warming (SSW) is a breakdown event of the winter polar vortex associated with a sudden rise of temperature by several tens K in a few days in the polar stratosphere. It is basically a nonlinear dynamical event in planetary scale, while it is recognized as an event that has association with smaller spatial-scale gravity waves, and longer time-scale intraseasonal and interannual variations or climate change of the polar vortex. It is also interacted with radiative and chemical processes in the stratosphere. Nowadays its remote influence and association with variations in some components of Earth's climate system are investigated widely, including the troposphere, the mesosphere and lower thermosphere, the oceans, the hydrosphere, and the cryosphere.
It is nearly 60 years since the finding of stratospheric sudden warming by Richard Scherhag (1952), nearly 40 years since the pioneering theory by Taroh Matsuno (1971), and nearly 30 years since the publication of some well known articles on SSWs in the special issue of the Journal of the Meteorological Society of Japan on the occasion of the centennial anniversary of the Society. In this workshop, we invite several speakers from the first generation of SSW research to promote intensive discussions with the second and third generations to inform the future. We will repeat Michael McIntyre's (1982) question "How well do we understand the dynamics of stratospheric warmings?", and expand the question to their remote influence in the climate system and roles in weather and climate variations. Planned sessions include:
- dynamics of SSWs and radiative and chemical processes associated with them
- intraseasonal and interannual variations of the polar vortex
- upward and downward vertical couplings in the polar region
- association with the oceans, the hydrosphere, or the cryosphere
- roles in numerical weather forecasts and climate change projections

Here is the listing:DANCE-ROCK SONGS & INSTRUMENTALS with an accent on fun and the unusual are wanted by the President of an Artist Mgmt. Co. to represent for film/TV/video game/commercial placement. Styles can range from campy Disco [Scissor Sisters, the Rapture] to Roots/Rock/Reggae/Dub [Sly & Robbie, Tom Tom Club] to Industrial [Sisters Of Mercy, Ministry] to New Wave [Depeche Mode, the Killers]. The company's owner will come in to screen your submissions. They offer a very artist-friendly non-exclusive licensing deal. Broadcast quality needed [excellent home recordings are OK]. Please submit one to three songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI and must be received no later than Nov. 29, 2006. TAXI # S061129DRWe submitted 4 songs to this listing and none were forwarded even though they got very good reviews.The reasons they didn't pass them along differ a bit for each song.I'll list the song and the reason for not passing it along.You can hear all 4 songs at: www.garageband.com/TheDivys1. Get Up! Give Up! Move On! - Reason: Song lyric content needs to be made clearer and have more understanding of the characters offered. (what are we, novelists?) what sense does purple haze, black dog or I am the walrus mean?2. Shine - Reason: Song production and delivery is too close to influences(huh?)3. Tongue - Comment: The snaking rhythms opens this track up for a beat immediately. The arrangement is solid and moves forward like a freight train. The 'tongue' reference is well constructed. The jagged phrases that make up the bulk of the lyric content provides good soundbites of wording that comes together well for a consistent message. The overall tone of this track is techno and has lots of new wave influences. The musical and lyrical hooks are firmly in place. The techno aspect of the track is what is keeping me from a forward. For this Rock/Dance hybrid the techno side is a little overwhelming and locks the genre into the electronica category.Reason: Song style is not in the vein of artists such as Scissor Sisters, The Rapture, Sly & Robbie, Tom Tom Club, Sisters Of Mercy, Ministry, Depeche Mode and the Killers(wow! didn't know depeche or ministry or tom tom club didn't have techno elements about them)4. Disco Life - Reason: Songs style is not in the vein of artists such as The Rapture, Sisters of Mercy, Depeche Mode, Ministry, Scissor Sisters, the Killers, Sly & Robbie and Tom Tom Club. Comment: A strong new wave techno groove runs through this track. The minimalist techno soundscapes come through in the style of artists such as Alan Vega and Martin Rev's work in Suicide. Nicely put together and delivered, Clifford. Your use of musical and lyrical hooks is well represented. The style is what is holding me back from a forward din this category seeking Dance Rock tracks in the style of artists such as The Rapture, Sisters of Mercy, Depeche Mode, Ministry, Scissor Sisters, the Killers, Sly & Robbie and Tom Tom Club. (once again, we don't see what our styles don't have in common with Depeche & killers,etc.)

Re: Please enlighten us
Where in the critique does it say the screener was not the company's owner? Company reps still call it "a forward" and they have screener numbers too. I've had many submissions screened that way. Unless you have some insider information that we're not privy to, what you're doing here is arguing with a company president about his rejecting your material. And there I thought I'd seen it all...

Ohio gov's budget calls for selling 5 prisons
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Local governments in Ohio would face deep cuts to their funding and five state prisons would be sold under a sweeping two-year budget plan that Gov. John Kasich unveiled Tuesday as the state faces of an estimated $8.6 billion budget shortfall.
It was not immediately clear exactly how Kasich's budget team filled the shortfall that has loomed for months and was a central theme of his 2010 race against then-Gov. Ted Strickland.
According to administration figures, general revenue funding would grow from $50.8 billion to $55.5 billion over the two-year budget cycle. Spending in all funds would fall from $120.3 billion in Strickland's last budget to $119.5 billion.
Among the hardest hit in Kasich's budget plan was the local government fund, which is in line for a 33 percent cut in general revenue -- from $1.3 billion to $865 million -- in Kasich's plan.
"Folks, first year of the budget's the toughest," Kasich told an audience of about 820 state lawmakers, Cabinet officers and other members of the public at a Tuesday evening town hall meeting on his spending plan. "The second year it gets a little bit better."
His budget would expand school choice vouchers and give parents, students and teachers ways to take over failing schools. It would funnel Medicaid recipients into a more coordinated style of health care.
"This budget is loaded with one reform after another," Kasich said at an earlier media briefing. "It is, I would guess, the most reform-oriented budget in modern Ohio history."
For that reason, the new Republican governor and his Cabinet resisted direct comparisons to the current state budget. Their proposal is based on new assumptions about how business-like flexibility could help in areas ranging from public education and economic development to government health care to crime reduction.
Among cost-cutting measures in the governor's plan is a proposal to sell five prisons to private operators to avoid mass closures and raise $200 million that was covered in the last state budget with federal stimulus dollars.
Two of the five prisons already are privately run, although the state owns the buildings. Under Ohio law, private operators have to deliver a 5 percent savings over similar, public facilities -- which the state estimates will mean $9.3 million over the two-year budget cycle.
The prison facilities the governor has targeted are North Coast Correctional Treatment Facility and Grafton Correctional Institution, both in Grafton; North Central Correctional Institution in Marion; Lake Erie Correctional Institution in Conneaut; and a juvenile prison in Marion that closed in 2009.
Prisons director Gary Mohr said no employee who wants to stay in corrections will lack for a job under the plan.
Six-month early retirement will be offered to about 100 eligible employees at Grafton and North Central, and unions will be able to collectively bargain for how other positions will be filled. Those with seniority will be able to bump less experienced guards at other state facilities, and jobs will be available at private facilities for those bumped from the public sector -- most likely those not vested in the state pension system.
Kasich emphasized that his proposal would free cities and counties from cumbersome regulations and that if collective bargaining changes are successful in the Legislature, city and county leaders would have even more flexibility with their budgets.
"This entire state has to learn to do business differently," Kasich said.
As private operations, the prisons that are sold will generate between $400,000 to more than $1 million a year in new tax revenues for municipalities, and casinos being built in four cities will soon begin paying local taxes, Kasich said.
Opponents called Kasich's proposed cuts to local governments a back-door tax increase and "a wicked shell game."
"Under his proposal, local governments will have no other options but to cut services and lay off workers or raise taxes to keep fire stations, hospitals, and libraries open," AFL-CIO President Tim Burga said in a statement. "And his privatization schemes will saddle future generations of Ohioans with budget shortfalls and increased costs for services with lower quality. "
Budget director Tim Keen said the goal of the new budget is to position Ohio for competition with other states and countries. He said the administration used not just the traditional state bank account -- called the general fund -- to make its calculations, but from all funds Ohio gets from state and federal dollars, fees and other sources.
The method was seen particularly in education funding. A look at general fund spending showed increases in both state aid to K-12 schools (up $212 million over the biennium) and state aid to public colleges and universities (up $91 million over the biennium). However, when all funds are considered, K-12 schools would see cuts of 6.1 percent in the budget's first year and 4.7 percent in its second year.
Innovation Ohio, a liberal policy group, said those cuts would jeopardize 7,000 teachers' jobs.
"By failing to make the necessary investments in education and training, the Kasich budget would make it very hard for Ohio to compete in the 21st century, or to create the kind of long-term, high-paying jobs Ohioans deserve," said spokesman Dale Butland.
Kasich said his team of policy advisers has managed to actually increase state aid to education, to maintain Medicaid coverage for most Ohio residents while achieving $4.3 billion in savings over two years and to keep an $800 million cut in the personal income tax that went into effect in January.
"We were able to do a number of things because we set very high priorities for the operation of this government," Kasich said. "Our Cabinet directors were all asked to go inside of their budgets and find either a 10- or a 15-percent cut in the operation of their budget without damaging their clients."
Kasich also supports a cap of 3.5 percent on tuition increases, creating three-year bachelor's degree programs, and increasing teaching loads for faculty by one new course every two years.
The plans were met with praise from some university presidents.
University of Cincinnati President Gregory H. Williams said the school is "very appreciative that Gov. Kasich's proposed budget has done as much as possible to support higher education and suggests some first steps toward much-needed construction reform."

Homophobia hits 'Downton Abbey' as season begins its goodbyes
Note: This post contains information about the latest episode of Downton Abbey, which has started airing its final season in the UK on ITV. American viewers can watch the final season starting Jan. 3 on PBS.
Recovered from last week's episode yet? Following Lord Grantham's nightmarish remake of the chestburster scene from Alien, this week's Downton Abbey moves on as if nothing happened at all.
We've passed the mid-season point and so this is an altogether calmer affair - disappointing if you were looking for a bit of action. Each character hovers above their fate, into which they will inevitably slot, clean as toast. Lets piece together the end of Downton Abbey and its residents.
In Episode Six, Lord Grantham is laid up in bed (where Cora sleeps alongside, notably without first gaffer-taping his mouth closed, which would be the only circumstances under which I would go near him); Downton is open to the public; Lady Mary steals a kiss in the rain.
Meanwhile, Carson is still offering advice to his new wife about how she can make his bed and make him dinner, which Mrs Hughes is remarkably patient about. The way Carson bangs on about Mrs Patmore's cooking makes me wonder whether he's married the wrong servant.
How the other half lives
Downton Abbey is to open its doors to the public to raise money for the hospital, which is the least they can do considering Lord Grantham's unseemly explosion. However, Lord Grantham, Carson and the Dowager are all rather put out about the affair. Why would anyone pay to see Downton?
"I suppose I always wonder whether the other half are having a better time than I am," offers Barrow.
"But that's what's so dangerous," replies Carson. "You think 'they must be having a better time', then you want them not to have a better time, and next thing you know there's a guillotine in Trafalgar Square." LOL.
Turns out the open house tour is even more of a rip-off than the nay-sayers feared because nobody in the family seems to know a bastard thing about the place – staggering stuff when you consider that they spend a large proportion of their considerable spare time sitting in these rooms avoiding each other's eye contact. You mean to tell me not one of these people saw fit to ask who the dude in the painting was? Did they all know this tour was going to happen? Do they have an Encyclopedia in the vicinity? Is this really the best education money can buy?
Another trip to London
Anna's pregnancy is still tenuous and Bates wants her to visit the fancy London doctor - and he wants to pay this time.
Lady Mary is up for London, which probably has more to Henry's proverbial gear stick than anything to do with Anna.
On the walk home from dinner, Lady Mary and Henry are stuck by an instantaneous downfall of rain and duck into shelter before sharing a romantic kiss. It doesn't matter that she doesn't like race-cars, plenty of driver's wives don't visit the racetrack, he tells her, getting a bit ahead of himself.
I have suspended my disbelief for nearly every Downton Abbey plot but that instantaneous shower burst on the first clap of thunder, nope
— Tempest Devyne (@tempestdevyne) October 26, 2015
It's moving much faster than Lady Mary imagined, she says, which, given her track record, is a plum statement indeed. Henry tells her he's falling in love with her. As an argument it's very compelling, replies Lady Mary, romantic as ever. Lady Mary conducts her relationships with the same enthusiasm one might muster for a trip to the Post Office.
Side note: Lady Mary's costumes are exquisite in this series, bravo to the costume designers.
Dowager is out, Cora is in
Dr Clarkson has the grim responsibility of telling Cora that she is to succeed the Dowager to the role of president of the hospital.
Or, as Cora puts it: "Golly. They've sacked the captain."
The Dowager sets herself up for a fall by gloating about her role as the hospital's President, which Cora is poised to usurp.
It's not long before she finds out though. Halfway through failing to answer any of the guests' questions on the house tour, Cora is confronted with the Dowager, apoplectic with rage, who makes a beeline to harangue Lord Grantham.
The Dowager swears not to see Cora 'until she's used to having a traitor in the family', which must sound more like a promise than a threat.
Why do Lady Mary and Lady Edith hate each other?
If we thought Lady Mary's discovery of Marigold's true identity would make her any softer on Lady Edith, we were badly mistaken. Lady Mary and Lady Edith's beef has, if anything, escalated. There are some particularly loaded barbs in this episode. Take, for instance, this exchange:
Lady Edith (upon hearing Lady Mary will dine at the Criterion)
"I used to go to the Criterion with Micheal."
"Must you put a dampener on every restaurant in the capital?" Mary retorts, as if that's the biggest inconvenience of Lady Edith losing her true love.
Later, Lady Mary tells Branson: "She's so stupid to have saddled herself with a child… why would any man want to take her on?" which is a bit pot calling the kettle slut. Perhaps Lady Mary believes Lady Edith willed herself pregnant.
Homophobia still alive and well downstairs
Careful, you're going to feel sorry for Barrow.
@DowntonAbbey Can't help feeling very sorry for Mr Barrow, despite his past behaviour.
— carianne dunford (@dcedunford1) October 26, 2015
Mrs Patmore overhears Barrow and Andy arranging to meet in his room (incidentally, this is so Barrow can teach Andy to read without embarrassment). Later, Andy is caught leaving Barrow's room, causing Carson's brow to furrow a most worrying fashion.
Mrs Patmore is worried about Andy, she tells Carson.
'He's young and you ought to know'... what? exactly?
Carson corners Barrow, cane in hand. Does Barrow have a 'private understanding with Andy'?
Barrow cottons on immediately, and tries to reassure Carson that nothing 'of that nature' is going on.
'He's a vulnerable young man,' says Carson.
Barrow's word is still not good enough? "I only wish it were," sneers Carson.
Barrow is reduced to sobbing pitifully by the fire and we're left with very angry feelings towards a previously popular Carson.
Elsewhere in the Abbey…
Daisy is due to take her exams, and Moseley's efforts haven't gone amiss with the headmaster, which is nice. The headmaster wants him to take a general knowledge exam. Could there be a place for pleasant Mr Moseley at the local school?
Mrs Baxter reveals Coyle, the cad who landed her in prison, has requested that she visits him - much to Moseley's dismay.
Lord Merton has brought his future daughter-in-law to the house – she's marrying the insufferable Larry Grey, who you might remember from season three.
Mrs Patmore has finished her cottage, put an ad in the papers and is ready to start her own holiday business. She is also exchanging pleasantries with Mr Mason, which is inexplicably upsetting Daisy.
So. Where will they land? What tidy fate befalls our beloved, ludicrous personalities? There are only two more episodes to go...
All I want is for Thomas to find some happiness, please @DowntonAbbey #DowntonAbbey #thomasbarrow
