Edit Article
wikiHow to Decorate Your Bedroom Like a Hogwarts Dormitory
Love Harry Potter beyond words? You can decorate your room to look like a Hogwarts dormitory so work that creative magic! All you have to do is read the article below!
1Clean your entire bedroom and move everything into a hallway temporarily. Make sure that this is okay with your parents.
2Decorate your bed to make it look like it's four-posted by attaching spray-painted PVC pipe to the ends of the bed and around it.
3Get a trunk to put all your Hogwarts stuff into. An alternative is to get a large cardboard box, paint it burgundy, put your name on it and put your Hogwarts costume, books and equipment in it.
4Read the books to get a really inside view of the dorms.
5Put up posters.
6Display your Harry Potter things.
7Sew some curtains and bed sheets in your house color.
8Take the Harry Potter Sorting Hat quiz to find out what house you would be in and then decorate your room with posters coordinating to that house.
9Move your things back in but put them in boxes labeled things like "Animals To Transfigure" and "Potion Ingredients".
10On your door put the thing that would allow you to go in. (For example, Gryffindor, Fat Lady portrait)
11Enjoy your dormitory!
12It would be great if you had an owl, a cat, or toad replica.
13Have Harry Potter books/movies filling your shelves.
14Make book covers for all your books saying things such as: "A Brief History of Magic", "Hogwarts: A History", and stuff like that.
Community Q&A
What do I put in my trunk?wikiHow ContributorYou should put in your robes, books, broomstick (optional), cauldron, dress robes, wand, and any other items you wish to have.
What do I do if I don't have an owl?That's totally fine. It is not needed! Cute, plush, toy owls can be a substitute, and look just as nice.
How would I get potion bottles?astha modiYou can use cork bottles from you local craft store.
I'm a ravenclaw. What do I put on my door?wikiHow ContributorYou can put up a Ravenclaw poster, or a picture of Cho Chang or Luna Lovegood.
I have so many things that don't have to do with Harry Potter (Tinker Bell boxes, etc). What do I do with the things that can't be put away?wikiHow ContributorYou can leave them out! Perhaps you're a Muggle-born who just happens to love Tinker Bell? Hogwarts dorms are decorated the way the student wants, and you should show your personality! As a Muggle, decorating your room like a Hogwarts dormitory can be so cool, but if you were a witch/wizard, it would just be boring! Don't be afraid to display what you love!
What if I have too many stuffed animals in my room?wikiHow ContributorTake out any stuffed animals that you don't like as much, or that you can simply live without, and put them in a storage room/garage.
What is a trunk?It's a chest that opens by swinging upwards (like a suitcase).
Can I get a portrait of my patrons?wikiHow ContributorSure. Why not?
If I grow out of Harry Potter (which isn't likely, but just imagine it), what do I do with all my stuff?wikiHow ContributorYou could sell it, or give it away to a friend or family member that likes Harry Potter.
What do I do if I share a room with someone who does not like Harry Potter?wikiHow ContributorYou can either each decorate your own side of the room however you wish, or you can try to compromise on decorations and just choose a few Harry Potter-related things.

- To sew the curtains and bed sheets make sure you don't use velvet as that is almost impossible to sew- either by hand or by machine.
- To get posters to stick really well use tape on the edges and the middle.
- People might say you're crazy but they're only jealous.
- PVC pipe is dangerous to work with. Have an adult cut it and put it up.

Unanswered: Querying a backup db
I'm backing up a table every month (appending, full backup).
But I need to query the backup for statistics...
Is it possible to query a backup?

If I understand correctly you want to select data directly from backup...
It is impossible without restoring....
You can get backup history from system tables (on msdb), restore selected backup with another name (history for example) and use it.

Its A Global Call To Action That Everyone Can Participate In From Their Home Or Smart Phone To Protest The Global Climate Conferences In Paris called "COP21 2015 United Nations Conference on Climate Change". Denied, yet ongoing geoengineering practices that have been going on for over 65 years have not been included in any of the IPCC's climate models, making them flawed and fraudulent and impossible to determine whether the planet is warming or cooling.
The stated purpose of the geoengineering programs is to "change the temperature of our planet and manipulate the weather", therefore, there can be no accurate, definitive statement made that the planet is warming or cooling. To make such a statement allows the continuing of the destructive geoengineering programs, the deception surrounding them and the further misleading of public opinion!
We therefore demand that global geoengineering programs are stopped and all climate talks, legislation and mandates are immediately rescinded. Take action today before its to late to stop them.

text: The incubator UPF Starting Lab is a program promoted by the University Pompeu Fabra and coordinated by Incubio in Canòdrom– Creative Industries Research park. It has the support of the Department of Culture, through the Catalan Institute of Cultural Industries of the Generalitat of Catalonia. That is the 8th Incubator built by Incubio. That university incubator focuses on helping to produce Undergraduate Student Projects as was Incubio's vision 7 years ago. This first edition of Starting Lab hosts ten students of Interactive Communication from UPF. The program promotes multidisciplinary work between different studies of the UPF, allowing to market the undergraduate student projects in Audiovisual Communication and Business Administration, and promotes collaboration between alumni and undergraduates. Mireia Trenchs,vice provost for Teaching and Learning UPF said that "overlaps perfectly with the strategic plan of the University and that emphasizes skills; interrelates teaching, research and knowledge transfer, and encourages interdisciplinary". Starting UPF incubator Lab is part of a more global strategic axis that drives the Pompeu Fabra University and the Faculty of Communication as the relationship and the projection of their students with the business and cultural institutions in the city. UPF had more of 12.000 students in 2016 and ranks as the second best spanish university according Times Higher Education ranking. For six months, from December 1, 2016, students are working on their projects in Incubio's headquarters, where they are following Incubio's method,with the intention that these happen to be a good idea on paper to become a product that finds its place in the market. The program represents a major challenge for universities, and aims to increase a positive relationship between the talent of students and professionals in the world to promote their employment. The three projects incubator Starting Lab UPF already have been recognized with several awards,such as a design Laus 2016 Silver and 3 Monkey Head UPC Award in 2016 Mobile category; They stand out as having a discursive, narrative or experimental, genuine innovative component of these studies in Communication Studies, which is not detected in other similar studies. That products are cultural and artistic digital creations in various formats with a predominant innovation and audiovisual interactive media component. Some are located in well established as formats, video games or cultural or educational apps but others escape from these formats, such as interactive installations or interactive narrative formats. The selected teams are:

Davies Arnold Cooper is restructuring its London offices as the firm looks to open further premises in the South and South West.
It is scouting the market for new premises to bring DAC's London staff from its three offices at Bouverie Street, Fleet House and Bradwell Place under one roof.
Nick Sinfield, managing director at DAC, says the firm is looking at three possible offices. "There is not a huge number of sites on the market but we are looking at three, one of which is particularly good for us," says Sinfield.
Sinfield says the reorganisation of the London office is part of an initiative at the firm called "New Ways to Work" which, he says, is designed to "get everyone under one roof to produce a community spirit between the staff".
A memo sent by Sinfield to staff, which has been seen by The Lawyer, says: "We are… looking at potentially acquiring further work to the value of u2m approximately which may involve opening two small but flexible offices in the South and South West.
"If this proceeds it will be client-led. The team is therefore likely to grow over the next 12 months, nationally and locally."

After a five-year hiatus, Cafe Tacvba returns with a unique approach to the live album.
On a cool summer night in July, music industry tastemakers were called to a clandestine meeting at East West Studios in Hollywood. Electronic devices had to be checked at the door. Inside the invite-only event, Mexican alternative rock band Cafe Tacvba was in a back room preparing to perform 10 new songs, to be recorded live for an album that would put a new twist on the unplugged acoustic theme.
The faces in the crowd -- everyone from Universal Music Latin Entertainment president Victor Gonzalez to musician/filmmaker Sergio Arau -- were in for something that rarely happens in music: a live recording (no talking or applause allowed) by one of Latin music's most iconic groups.
The showcase has become the heart of the band's next album, "El Objeto Antes Llamado Disco" ("The Object Once Called a Record"), which arrives Oct. 22 on Universal Music Latino. The project, produced by Academy Award-winning composer Gustavo Santaolalla, is Cafe Tacvba's first album in five years, and the label is creating a marketing campaign that combines technology, social networks and touring to announce the act's return.
The July event, which coincided with the band's 20th anniversary and consisted of two Los Angeles sessions, capped off a short series that was recorded in countries including Argentina, Chile and Mexico.
"These sessions allowed us to renew ourselves," says singer Ruben Albarran, who along with keyboardist Emmanuel del Real, bassist Enrique Rangel and lead guitarist Joselo Rangel founded the band in Naucalpan, Mexico, in the late '80s. "It gave us the ability to transform through the sentiment and emotions of each audience-an energy that usually doesn't happen when recording in a studio alone."
"These sessions were magical," adds Santaolalla, the band's longtime producer. "Those in the room could hear the music as it was being recorded and this element also intensified the recording."
But unlike popular acoustic-themed albums, the audience was asked to stay silent while the group performed. Applause was allowed only after each take with the exception of "Pajaros" ("Birds"), after which everyone in attendance clapped. That clapping, which happened in each city, has been mixed and will be heard on the album.
In addition to the big-event feel of the sessions, a digital campaign has been equally important as the band's team works toward the release. "This is the first Cafe Tacvba album that comes out in the digital iTunes age," says Miguel Lua, senior product manager for Universal Music Latino and Machete Music. "We're being proactive in securing big things for the group."
To that end, the label has been working with iTunes to release the first single, "Este Lado del Camino," and the album was available as a preorder at iTunes in the United States and Mexico on Oct. 2. Additionally, videos will be released on Vevo.
The band's most successful album is 2005's "Un Viaje" ("A Journey"), which reached No. 2 on Billboard's Latin Pop Albums chart; its biggest singles include "Eres," which reached No. 38 on Latin Pop Airplay in 2004, and Calle 13's "No Hay Nadie Como Tu," on which the band appears, climbed to No. 13 in 2009. Cafe Tacvba has sold 142,000 albums during the Nielsen SoundScan era (1991-present).
"I don't want to say they are immune to a [weak] economy," Lua says. "But they have a loyal group of fans. A Cafe Tacvba album is an event."

dinghy #1 going into place
Yesterday was one of the hottest days we've had at the yard yet, which makes sense because April is the middle of the summer here. Oddly enough the weather channel website says it was only "feels like" 113, which isn't the hottest we've had yet (122 as far as I can tell). But we also had no breeze and were standing on a steel deck that radiates heat, so really I think it was a lot hotter. Even after sunset the temperature was "feels like 109." I spent the morning wiping more residue off of the turnbuckles, which is a lot longer process than you can probably imagine! The little grooves are just barely big enough to fit my fingernail in so I have to really carefully wipe through in little sections to make sure I get it all.
the peanut gallery on the dock
But it's still kind of fun. Just after I ate lunch I went on a fairly long errand, which was a bit of an adventure. I needed to get to a small electronics shop on the opposite side of
so they could replace some parts of our main engine control panel. I took a cab to the BTS station in Bangkok, our normal ride. Then I took the BTS about 5 stations down to where it interchanges with the MRT (subway). I took the MRT to the end of the line and then got in another cab to the store. This all took about two hours. I had a piece of paper with a vague sort of map mostly written in Thai and the address of the store also written only in Thai.
waiting for the other dinghy
So I handed that to the driver and off we went. But we actually only went a block down, and then turned into some small alleyways deep into a sort of poorer residential zone. After like 15 minutes of going through a maze of little streets, some so tight the driver had to make multiple-point turns to get around corners, and yelling out the window to everyone in the street "Wanchai?! Wanchai?!" (the name of the shop), my driver finally pulled back onto the street we started on and stopped the car. I was so glad that he was a persistent driver, he could have easily told me sorry, nope and let me out there. But instead he got out his cell phone and called the number of the store and talked rapidly in Thai for a few minutes.
dinghy #2
Then he turned to me and in very broken English said something to the effect of, "get out of the car, turn right, he will meet you." And I was kind of like you want me to whaaaaa? But I did it and he drove off, leaving me to walk around the corner about 100 feet away and see a sign that said, you guessed it, Wanchai Electronics. And sure enough, there was Wanchai himself to greet me on the sidewalk. From the collection of shoes at the door I gathered I was supposed to take mine off, which I did (after stepping over the dog that was sleeping on the stoop), and then immediately handed over the control panel and sat down on a small stool to wait. The store was very small, just 3 desks and some shelves, and had an equal amount of random electronics parts and Buddhist shrines.
view from the bow of the dinghies in place, and check out the squeaky clean threads on the turnbuckle in the foreground!
There was one other woman there at another desk and after a few minutes when she didn't move I realized she was sleeping sitting up in her chair (she had sunglasses on so I couldn't tell this right away). After a while of tinkering Wanchai was apparently waiting for a phone call before continuing so he started offering me all sorts of food and drink. I managed to decline coffee, tea, and cold water before finally accepting a small wrapped candy. Pretty harmless and I was just hoping it wasn't black beans. It wasn't, but little writing on one of the 3 seperate plastic wrappings informed me that it was a dried plum. I sort of gnawed on it for a little while and then subtely (I hope) spit the rest out in the wrapper.
moving one of the huge weights during the test
But then the sleeping woman, who had since woken up and was puttering about, brought me some water and I was grateful to have something else to do rather than stare at this guy's wall some more. Also the small room reeked of something similar to diesel fuel and I was starting to feel a bit dizzy by the time he got his phone call. After a lot of deliberating and phone calls I left the shop with some of the replacement parts and headed back to the yard, over 3 hours after I'd left! The rides back were a lot quicker, I seemed to catch the trains at the right time and the traffic wasn't that bad. When I arrived back at the yard the guys had already left for home, so I decided to stay and help Travis if I could because he always works so late.
charthouse head
I ended up entering a bunch of information into the computer, which was fun, and seeing the yard at night was a totally cool new perspective. The exciting part of the evening was when Travis told me that I had to take a motorbike from the yard to the main road (the other option was to walk). I'd been putting off riding on the back of a scooter (they are just like taxis here, you hop on the back and the driver takes you wherever you want to go) for as long as possible because the idea has always scared me, not to mention the fatality rate of 125 per day in Thailand. But secretly I've always wanted to try and never would have done it myself. So on I hopped behind the driver (it was a big seat so Travis was behind me; it's not unusual to see entire families of 4-6 people piled onto one scooter) and we were off! So it was probably like the slowest ride ever compared to being on the main road, but that 45 seconds sure was cool! I was grinning like a little kid the entire ride.
captain's head
It was so fun! I think I'll limit my scooter experience to something like that, rather than brave the 60 mph weaving through city traffic style driving that comes with any other territory, but it sure was fun to try! After a quick meal at JJs before they closed I wrote some emails and went to bed, ready for another day at work today. We were all dreading the heat again today but it didn't seem quite as bad today for some reason, even though I just checked the current temperature and its says "feels like 99." And this is at almost midnight. Again I spent the morning and part of the afternoon wiping more wires, but the rest of our time was taken up by preparations for the stability test.
salon port side
I'm still not 100 percent clear on exactly what the deal is, but basically we loaded up the boat with all our gear to simulate normal weight conditions (anything missing will be added to the calculations later) and then a big crane placed some huge weights on different sides of the boat to test the boat's reaction. The weight wasn't huge compared to the boat's weight, so it only tipped the boat a couple degrees or so, but using this information we can later calculate what would happen under other situations just by plugging numbers in. So that was cool to watch, but what also was really neat was seeing the boat all clean and stripped of extra items. There was a huge pile of random stuff on the dock, but down below looked fairly close to it's finished version, complete with flooring and all the cushions for the bunks and salon.
salon starboard side
When the test was done we removed some of the things that had been added for it that we don't want around right now, like the dinghies and the dinghy davits, and then we headed home. In the cab someone brought up the Colisseum, which is a sort of bar/show place about a block down from us that we pass every day to and from work. You can't miss the building from the BTS or the street, it's a huge fake stone building with a giant bust of Zeus holding a beer mug sticking out of it. We've always talked about going there but never actually have. For whatever reason we decided to go tonight and walked there straight from our BTS stop still in our dirty work clothes. We ran into some friends of a friend on the way there and they decided to join us, so that was fun.
forward hallway
It is probably one of the funniest places ever. We had no idea what to expect, and I'm not even sure I could narrow it down to one theme, but I guess beer-Vegas sums it up pretty well. In the entrance area there is a model of the real Colisseum with the Heinekin logo on it, pretty much the only actual reference to ancient Rome in the entire place. In the main theater area where there are tons of tables and a huge stage are two sets of giant fake stone Mt. Rushmore busts on the walls, one of the real thing and one with Thai leaders instead of American ones. It was so tacky it was awesome. We were seated (probably quite purposely as there was no one else in the place and we were tourists) in the front and center table by the stage, which only came into play just before we left when a Thai cover band came on and started singing Thai pop songs.
forward bunks
I love live music so this was just fine with me to watch, but most of the guys had had enough and only myself and Eliot and the two other people we met along the way stayed longer. I'm so glad I stayed, it was actually one of the funniest hours I've spent here. The whole place was filling up (with only Thai people) and a sort of variety show started. There was some more singing, then we think some stand up comedy (it's all in Thai), and then all of a sudden there was a drag queen with two male dancers in red hotpants dancing around being whipped with foam tubes while lip-synching... it was pretty impressive I have to admit. In a funny way. These people were all obviously having fun with everything and cracking up and making jokes, definitely not taking themselves too seriously.
the Colisseum... too bad all my pictures from inside are blury!
So Eliot and I and the other two had a good laugh. There was a Village People impersonation, fake boy band dancing to a Madonna song, and a 70s style dance off. At that was only before we left because it was getting late. It was sooo funny and I'd definitely go back again to see the whole show. Even though we couldn't understand a word they were saying we could appreciate the humor they were implying and it was definitely a good time. Ok I just wrote for way longer than I intended, and used way too many parentheses for my own good, so I'm going to stop now and start to post some pictures. Hopefully sailing on tuesday!

Phineas Gage was truly a man with a hole in his head. Phineas, a railroad construction foreman, was blasting rock near Cavendish, Vermont, in 1848 when a thirteen-pound iron rod was shot through his brain. Miraculously, he survived to live another eleven years and become a textbook case in brain science. At the time, Phineas Gage seemed to completely recover from his accident. He could walk, talk, work, and travel, but he was changed. Gage was no longer Gage," said his Vermont doctor, meaning that the old Phineas was dependable and well liked, and the new Phineas was crude and unpredictable. His case astonished doctors in his day and still fascinates doctors today. What happened and what didn't happen inside the brain of Phineas Gage will tell you a lot about how your brain works and how you act human.
Science writer John Fleischman uses a clipped, engaging expository style to tell the incredible story of the railroad worker who, in 1848, survived the piercing blast of a 13-pound iron rod as it entered below his cheekbone and exited the front of his skull in Phineas Gage: A Gruesome but True Story about Brain Science. Photographs, glossary, a resource listing and index lend this textbook case the same sense of immediacy as do the words. (Mar.) Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.

Good news from Wal-Mart and Goldman Sachs brought out buyers Tuesday, as the Dow enjoyed its second largest gain of the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 319.5 points (+2.5%), Standard & Poor's 500 index increased 41.9 points (+2.9%), and the Nasdaq surged 89.5 points (+3.5%). Volume on the NYSE was not heavy at 1.15 billion shares, and advancers beat decliners by a ratio of about 4:1.
The morning started strong with Wal-Mart (+6.1%) beating estimates (full story). The retailer's profits increased 8%, and it upped its profit forecast for the year. Home Depot (+2.3%) reported profits dropped 27% (full story), but enthusiasm from Wal-Mart's quarter overshadowed the home-improvement retailer's poor results. Goldman Sachs (+8.5%) jumped after CEO Lloyd Blankfein said Goldman will not report a major writedown because of mortgage-industry related weakness (full story). Pending Home Sales unexpectedly increased 0.2% in September, after economists expected a 2.0% decline. The US 10-year Treasury note fell 13/32 in price, and now yields 4.26%.
All sectors finished with gains Tuesday, with transportation (+3.1%), tech (+3.7%), services (+4.0%), and financials (+4.1%) all having strong days. Corning (+10.0%) rallied after it announced it was upping its outlook for the fourth-quarter (full story). E*Trade (+40.9%) bounced back considerably after losing more than its market value yesterday. Rumors of a potential takeover were the catalyst for the up move (full story). Bank of America (+5.2%) announced it will writedown about $3 billion in losses from mortgage-related securities (full story). Crude fell $3.45 to $91.17/barrel (full story).
The PPI (8:30 AM), Retail Sales (8:30 AM), and Business Inventories (10:00 AM) are scheduled to be released Wednesday. The news should provide some help to investors who are currently sorting out the market's recent movements, and determining if this is the beginning of another rally, or simply a "dead cat bounce," as many are suggesting.

Highlighter Is This Winter's Must-Have Product
There is no joy in this life quite like having shimmery cheekbones.
The first time I saw myself with highlighted cheekbones, I fell deeply in love. I was 17 at the time and had, until then, considered myself a beauty minimalist: when highlighters first hit the market, the sparkly creams and powders seemed excessive. But then another one came along. It was a tiny, free sample of Benefit's High Beam that I scored with my Ulta rewards membership while stocking up for a high-school dance. "Why not?" I thought. "It's a special occasion. Let's try something new."
"I wanted to be a straight-up ice queen. I wanted my cheekbones to look like pieces of cut glass. I wanted my face to be like the sun—blinding yet irresistible to look at…."
I swooned at the way my newly heightened cheekbones caught the light, even in sludgy, sun-deprived winter, and the way my whole face brightened up. When I looked in the mirror, I saw a brand-new woman—one who was proud of her appearance, who had her life together. I was Me 2.0. The one-off highlighter experiment became the important last step—the closer—in my tried-and-true daily routine of tinted moisturizer, winged black eyeliner, and mascara.
High Beam Liquid Highlighter, $26, benefitcosmetics.com.
As my routine evolved, I knew I needed to take my relationship with highlighter to the next level. I had perfected the natural, candlelit glow with the subtle Benefit formula, but my attitude was becoming bolder and it deserved something stronger: I wanted to be a straight-up ice queen. I wanted my cheekbones to look like pieces of cut glass. I wanted my face to be like the sun—blinding yet irresistible to look at, if only for a split second.
Shimmering Skin Perfector in Pearl, $38, beccacosmetics.com.
So, I bought Becca's icy-white highlighter and layered it over my favorite sheen liquid until my cheekbones became brightly lit signs saying, "Look over here!" The trick sent my confidence soaring, and I felt the urge to push my highlighting boundaries even further.
Enter Jeffree Star Cosmetics Skin Frosts, which until then I hadn't felt brave enough to rock on an average day. Some might not find their blinding shine and pigmented green, pink, and purple colors fitting for a face powder, but they do what they're supposed to do—that is, turn heads.
Skin Frost in Mint Condition, $29, jeffreestarcosmetics.com.
Although I've tried it all, I am still far from the end of my torrid love affair with highlighters. In fact, I've been thinking that it might be time to return to my roots with a palette that has more natural finishes. The Moonchild Glow Kit by Anastasia has two of them, along with my beloved hyperpigmented whites and purples for when I'm feeling fiercer than usual.
Moonchild Glow Kit, $40, anastasiabeverlyhills.com.
In the end it doesn't matter how I choose to wear it—whether it's the understated cherry on top of my look or the cosmetic equivalent to a blinding spotlight—highlighter is more than just something pretty I put on my face. Turning heads with glimmering skin is a power move in itself, and that makes highlighter confidence in a bottle…or compact, or palette.

William Phillips inquest: Coroner seeks head injury improvements
A coroner is to ask hospital managers to improve procedures for dealing with head injuries after a pedestrian died following an argument in Norwich.
William Phillips, 34, hit his head on the pavement in Oak Street on 18 July and died two days later.
Witnesses saw a cyclist, named at the Norwich inquest as Luke Howard, 22, push him over before cycling off.
Deputy assistant coroner David Osborne recorded a narrative verdict on Wednesday.
The inquest heard it was a "gentle" push but that a degenerative brain condition made Mr Phillips unsteady on his feet.
Shortly before the incident Mr Phillips had been seen walking in the road, forcing traffic to avoid him.
'Vulnerable to fall'
Mr Phillips had adrenoleukodystrophy, a condition similar to multiple sclerosis which sometimes led to manic behaviour and him being verbally abusive.
Dr Simon Shields, a neurologist, told the inquest this may have led to Mr Phillips appearing to be drunk.
He added: "His condition would not have made him more susceptible to a head injury, but it may have made him more vulnerable to fall."
Following the altercation, Mr Phillips was treated at a nearby doctor's surgery.
He was then taken to A&E at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital as he had vomited after drinking a cup of tea.
Mr Osborne said he was assessed by an A&E doctor who diagnosed a minor head injury and discharged him "with head injury advice and without a CT scan."
He was taken home by taxi but discovered dead at his home in Derby Street, Norwich, two days later.
Mr Osborne said he would write to hospital managers about carrying out better checks of medical records and A&E staff should be reminded of guidelines to carry out CT scans on "low risk" cases within eight hours.
Mr Howard - the cyclist - was arrested 10 days after the incident, but was later released without charge as police concluded the death was not suspicious.

wikiHow to Check Cats for Ear Mites
Three Methods:Taking Preliminary ActionConfirming the Presence of Ear MitesPreventing Future OutbreaksCommunity Q&A
Ear mites are parasites and, if ignored, they can result in a cat's ear becoming infected and inflamed. Serious cases can lead to hearing loss, eardrum rupture and even infestation to other parts of the body. Indoor and outdoor cats are candidates for ear mites. Households with multiple pets are the most susceptible for ear mites, because they can be spread from one pet to the next. Prevention and treatment begins with learning how to check cats for ear mites.
Taking Preliminary Action
1Know the risk factors for ear mites. As ear mites can mimic the symptom of other veterinary issues, it's important to recognize the risk factors. This way, you'll know if your cat is at increased risk for ear mites.
- Ear mites are crablike parasites that can live inside the ears of cats. They are very common, and usually the most likely culprit when a cat's ear is inflamed or irritated.[1]
- Ear mites are highly contagious. Most cats get ear mites from another cat. If you have an outdoor cat or recently introduced a new cat to your home, ear mites are far more likely. Your cat could also come across ear mites while being boarded, but this is rare. Most animal boarding businesses check for ear mites before taking in cats.[2]
- Ear mites can happen to cats at any age but are more likely in kittens and younger cats. Their immunity is generally weaker so ear mites will choose them out over older, healthier cats.[3]
2Watch for symptoms of ear mites. Know what symptoms could be indicative of an ear mite issue.
- Your cat might appear irritated with his ears, scratching and pawing at them. Your cat might also shake his head frequently, causing hair loss.[4]
- An increase in ear wax or any thick and black crusty discharge from the ear is a sign of ear mites.[5]
- Skin lesions or sores may develop around the ear from excess scratching.[6]
3Be aware of other conditions similar to ear mites. Ear mites mimic a variety of other ear conditions in cat's. Know the other possibilities and discuss them with your vet when you take your cat into a clinic for a visit.
Confirming the Presence of Ear Mites
1Check your cat's ears. Before making a trip to the vet's, check your cat's ears at home. The more information you can provide in the vet's office, the better. Self-diagnosis is not recommended, but doing a preliminary check to examine symptoms is a good idea.
- The wax from a cat with ear mites is excessive and dark in color.
- There will often be scratches of scabs near the base of the ear from excessive scratching.[10]
- Cats may be sensitive about having their ear's touched if they're experiencing discomfort. Try having a friend or family member help you by holding the cat while you push back their ears to look inside.
2Make a trip to your vet's. To get a firm diagnosis, a vet trip is necessary. This prevents a misdiagnosis of ear mites, which is common as other conditions mimic the same symptoms, and the vet can also provide you with treatment options.
- Diagnosis ear mites is very easy for veterinarians and it can usually be done via a routine and non-invasive physical exam.[11]
- Your vet will use an otoscope, an instrument used for examining the ear, to magnify the ear and look at its internal structures under light. Usually, if ear mites are causing the symptoms, the vet will see them.[12]
- If your vet does not see ear mites, this does not necessarily mean your cat does not have ear mites. They will probably request a swab of the ear and examine it under a microscope to confirm ear mites.[13]
3Be aware of complications. Ear mites are usually a benign condition but can sometimes cause complications if not treated properly or promptly. Be aware of the various complications of ear mites.
- Ear mites can lead to infection if not treated promptly. Your cat's ear canal can be affected, which can permanently damage hearing.[14]
- If your cat scratches excessively around their ear, this could lead to ruptures blood vessels that require surgery.[15]
- For these reasons, home diagnosis and treatment is not recommended for ear mites. After watching for symptoms and checking your cat's ears, make a vet appointment immediately.[16]
Preventing Future Outbreaks
1Treat your cat's ear mites. Following the vet's instructions, treat your cat's ear mites to eliminate the problem.
- Never treat ear mites without having them diagnosed by a vet. Anti-mite solutions could easily irritate or worsen problems with similar symptoms to ear mites.[17].
- Regular and thorough ear-cleaning is required to cure ear mites. Commercial cleaner is usually used to clear the ear of debris, followed by cleaning with prescription ointments.[18]
- A cat's tail should be cleaned as well, as they frequently wrap themselves in their tails to sleep. This means eggs and mites can spread to the surrounding fur.[19]
- Ointments and pesticides prescribed by your doctor should be used for 7 to 10 days following an outbreak. If you have any other pets in your home, clean their ears as well as ear mites have likely spread.[20]
- Cats can be stubborn about taking medication. Have a friend help you if your cat is particularly resistant to treatment.
2Avoid past mistakes. Try to limit your cat's interactions with places and situations that expose him to ear mites.
- If you have an outdoor cat, you might consider keeping him inside if he is prone to frequent ear mite outbreaks. However, outdoor cats can be difficult to keep inside if they're accustom to coming and going as they please.
- If your cat suffers from Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) he should not go outside. Not only does his weakened immune system make him more susceptible to ear mites, the spread of FIV can be prevented by limiting his exposure to strange cats.
- Be wary of animal shelters and pet stores where ear mite outbreaks are common. Check all incoming kittens and cats for signs of ear mites before releasing them into your home.
3Wash a cat's bedding and toys. Items cats use frequently should be washed after an outbreak.
Community Q&A
My cat has always had dark stuff in his ears and not a lot of hair there, but now there are crusts. Could this be ear mites?Pippa Elliott, MRCVSDr. Elliott is a Veterinarian who specializes in Companion Animal Medicine in England. She registered with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons in 1987.
Veterinarian, Royal College of Veterinary SurgeonsEar mites are one possibility, while another is a yeast infection. Both of types of infection stimulate the ear to produce thick black wax.
Is it safe to put a few drops of peroxide in my cat's ear?wikiHow ContributorNo. Rub a mixture of teatree oil and olive oil or make a spray with apple cider vinegar instead.
My cat is licking the hair off his sides, legs, chest, and stomach. Could this be mites?wikiHow ContributorIt's most likely a condition called "barbering." Google it or ask your vet about treatment options.
We have a one-year-old cat with several ear sores. The vet prescribed ear drops and medication that has not helped. She is on Frontline, so it doesn't seem she would have mites; what's going on?wikiHow ContributorYour cat could be experiencing food allergies. Start a log of her daily food intake and record how her food selection affects her ears. You could also try a new, organic food, or a food with limited ingredients (such as those made by Natural Balance). Also, it's worth another conversation with your vet.
I just rescued a 2 year old cat. He shakes his head and scratches sometimes. He has no scabs or red marks, but it looks like he has small dirt in ears. Should I clean them with mineral oil to wipe them out?wikiHow ContributorTalk to a vet. Use a dry cotton pad to remove the outer ear mites. Don't insert anything into the ear canal.
- Check your cat often for ear mites. Ear mites multiply very quickly once they infest the ear. It will be easier to treat your cat with an early diagnosis.
- Your other cats and even dogs can get ear mites from 1 infected animal. Check all of your pets if you suspect that 1 has ear mites.
- Some cats do not show obvious signs of ear mites. Investigate any suspicion of ear mites that exists, even if your cat does not appear to have a problem.
- Do NOT put peroxide or any insect killers in or on your cats ear.
Things You'll Need
- Cotton swab
- Magnifying glass or microscope

Original paper
Plant communities on the NE coast of Oman and their site conditions
König, Peter; Fried, Oliver
Phytocoenologia Band 45 Heft 3 (2015), p. 269 - 290
published: Nov 1, 2015
ArtNo. ESP024004503002, Price: 29.00 €
The coast of Oman harbours a set of mostly halophytic plant communities. The NE coastline from Muscat to Ras al-Hadd, comprising about 200 km, was chosen for a detailed analysis of the vegetation by means of edaphic parameters, a semi-quantitative transect technique and relevés based on the Braun-Blanquet method. Additionally, the relationship between photosynthetic pathway types and environmental factors was examined. Thus, complementary data on vegetation, environmental conditions and ecophysiology were comparatively evaluated. The main differentiating environmental factors causing the observed spatial patterns are salinity, water content and soil type. Sheltered lagoons are characterized by patchy mangrove vegetation with Avicennia marina. The supralittoral zone around lagoons exhibits extremely high salt contents and is home to the Halopeplis perfoliata community. Sand dunes are dominated by a Cyperus conglomeratus community, which is followed by a Heliotropium - Limonium community further onshore. The coastal plains outside the salt influence merge into open xeromorphic scrubland with Acacia species. Phytosociologically, the communities belong to the classes Avicennio-Sonneratietea, Halopeplido-Suaedetea and Acacietea tortilis. Altogether, 68 species were counted as contributing to the vegetation. Twenty of them are C4 species growing mainly on particularly dry and salty sites.

Steve Tarrant, a 53-year-old race marshal, will attempt to travel further than anyone has ever travelled before... on a mobility scooter!
Tarrant, from Poole, Dorset, lost his leg in a marshalling accident 14 years ago but has remained a true motorsport fan and continued to oversee races at some of the world's most famous circuits.
The World Record attempt will take place at 1800 on Saturday May 17 at the famous Goodwood racing circuit, where Tarrant will pilot his TGA Breeze S4 GT mobility scooter for 24 hours straight.
This isn't the first time heroic Steve has attempted to roll into the World Record books, as he previously succeeded in breaking the existing 170-mile distance record for the distance covered in 24 hours, only to see his efforts disqualified by officials on a technicality.
Steve, who was presented with a Big Society Award from David Cameron for his involvement in the 1012 Olympics, is determined to succeed this time as he plans to complete a staggering 200 miles in the allocated time period.
He said: "It's fantastic to have such an historic location as Goodwood to make this record attempt. The course I'll be using is a hard Tarmac surface, which will provide a consistent level of grip throughout the day and night and should put me in good shape to break the record.
Spectators are welcome to come along and show their support from 1800-1900 on Saturday and after 0800 on Sunday.

Crowds couldn't get enough of Mad Yeti Fermentation's beers
Published in Morgan Hill October 12-25, 2016
By Staff Report
Just outside the doors of the Trail Dust BBQ restaurant, two South Valley men poured glasses of beer they had made to participants in the Sept. 17 Brew Crawl put on by the Morgan Hill Downtown Association. Jon Berkland of Morgan Hill and John Phelan of Gilroy are fast becoming masters in turning hops and water into delicious home-brewed beer.
The two were amazed by the overwhelmingly positive reaction the attendees had in sampling what was for them the public debut of their beer. The crowds couldn't get enough of their brew, said Berkland, who works as sales representative for a Wine/Beer/Spirits wholesaler in the South Valley.
"People started coming up talking about several of our beers that they heard about and simply had to have it, and many people were asking for more tastings or where they can buy our bottles," Berkland said. "One gentleman was so frustrated that he couldn't buy any of our beers, he wanted to complain to our manager (who doesn't exist) out of frustration of being unable to extend his experience with us."
The reactions kept coming even after the two brew buddies ran out of beer, with one woman even asking if she could get the suds that remained in the kegerator plumbing lines. They remained humble and excited about the crowd's reactions.
"It's always been a dream to have our beer poured at an establishment, but the community's reaction was surreal," said Phelan, who works as paramedic in the Santa Clara County 911 system and moonlights as a local volunteer firefighter.
The interest in brewing beer started early for Phelan. His father had a homebrew shop, J.P. Brewing Supplies, and when he was a child he would push the broom or measure out supplies. As a kid, he hated it. Then 20 years later, at the beginning of the craft beer boom, a lightbulb went off in his head while drinking an IPA, he said.
"Wait, I can do this … I think," he told himself.
His father took him out for a birthday outing and bought him his first beer-making set up and it had a snowball effect.
"Once I moved back to Morgan Hill, Jon started hanging out, which was like throwing rocket fuel on a match," he said. "We've upgraded our brewing rig several times over and brewed many batches — most we were proud of, several will not be named. We've been fortunate enough to have our beer tasted by many locals that are highly respected in the local beer scene."
Eventually, they named their enterprise Mad Yeti Fermentations — "Mad" was for their science experiments and "Yeti" was a playful yet respectful tip of the hat to the local Santa Cruz mountains.
The backbone of their brews tend to be the hoppier beers such as the West Coast-style pale ales and IPAs, high ABV (alcohol by volume) stouts, which take several months to let the yeast ferment and let the alcohol mellow out, and sours with locally-grown fruits.
"We're really at an advantage in South County with all of its fresh agriculture," Phelan said. "Some of the fruits we've used have come from Jon's backyard, Andy's Orchards, and Gizdich Ranch. Recently we've been brewing pilsners which are so simple and refreshing with this hot summer but can be challenging since you can't hide their flaws behind heavy flavors."

dagwoood 10:54 25 May 2005
holmesy67, as per your other thread, if you want to stay with a Radeon card, you'll notice a huge improvement with this card click here and that's a really good price as well.
You'll just need to check that your motherboard can take a x4 or a x8 AGP card.
Something to bare in mind for the future is adding another 512MB of RAM to your system(RAM's really cheap at the moment by the way). This would cut down on your system having to keep accessing your hard drive while playing games and provide better in game performance.Your system overall would be quicker as well(XP loves RAM).
HTH, dagwoood.


text: I was just given this stove by some relatives who bought a new mobile home and can't use it. I'm sure it's a Fisher copy, but I would really like to find a replacement blower for it. I bought my first load of wood, and not knowing much, I got a lot of green walnut, if I get some good seasoned wood to burn in with it, will that get my heat up to where it should be? I bought a magnetic thermometer for the pipe, put it about 6 to 8 inches up the pipe from the first turn, but other than a couple of times of gettting it to 425 F, I can't seem to get it over 300. I have a flue damper that I leave wide open, and the two damper vents in the front door are cranked open, but just can't seem to get the heat up. I'm using the stove to heat my wood shop/ garage.

Dr. Charles Steinberg returns to Red Sox
Dr. Charles Steinberg, who served as executive vice president/public affairs for the Red Sox from 2002 through 2007, will return to the club as senior advisor to team president Larry Lucchino.
Steinberg has served as senior advisor on public affairs to Commissioner Bud Selig since 2010 and had an office with Selig in Milwaukee.
The 100th Anniversary of Fenway Park marks an extraordinary time in the history of the Red Sox, and our ownership group was eager to have 'Dr. Charles' return to be an active and creative participant," Lucchino said. "We are grateful that Commissioner Selig has agreed to let him return at this historic time for our franchise."
Said Steinberg: "It is an honor to return for the celebration of the 100th Anniversary of Fenway Park. And to again help foster, nurture, and enhance the connection between the passionate fans of Red Sox Nation and their beloved ballclub and ballpark."
Steinberg began his career with his hometown Baltimore Orioles under Lucchino from 1988-1993. He went with Lucchino to the San Diego Padres in 1995 and to the Red Sox in 2002.
Steinberg left the Red Sox in December, 2007, to join the Los Angeles Dodgers, for whom he was executive vice president/public relations and marketing before joining the commissioner's office in 2010.
Selig said: "I thank Charles for his efforts on behalf of Major League Baseball over the last two years, and I congratulate him as he returns to the Boston Red Sox, an organization he served very well. It seems fitting that he will now be able to take part in planning the festivities for the 100th anniversary of Fenway Park."

Earlier today, the House of Representatives passed the FY 2011 National Defense Act that includes Congressman Murphy's amendment to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." The amendment, which passed last night, dismantles the policy only after the Pentagon completes its review process and after military leaders certify that repeal would not harm national security or military readiness.
"Today's vote was one more step toward repealing Don't Ask, Don't Tell and ensuring that every American has the same opportunity I did to defend our nation," said Rep. Murphy.
