Creating a Hotmail account doesn't take more than 30 seconds, however, sometimes, some problems can prevent you from signing up for a Hotmail account. If you are facing any such problem when trying to create a new Hotmail account, follow the suggestions provided here to overcome the problem:
- If you see an error code on the screen saying error 450 or see the letter LEFKPK, there may be a temporary issue with the Microsoft account service. Try again after 24 hours.
- Make sure you are connected to a stable internet connection.
- You also need to ensure the web browser you are using is compatible with the latest version of Hotmail or Outlook.
- Make sure the password you create meets Microsoft's password criteria

Benefits of Hotmail login
Hotmail is offering many new features like an increase in file attachment size, the ability to view, edit and share documents online, real-time document work collaboration, conversation view, better mobile experience, etc. Let's find out more information at: hotmail.com
Hotmail provides A level security for the entire session a user is logged in.
You can edit documents online without having to download them to your computer, Hotmail login is enough. All you would need to do is mail a powerpoint presentation and open it up, it opens in an online version. The changes you make to your office docs will automatically get saved in OneDrive. You can also edit documents that require change online and send it back.
Real-time work
If you and your friend or colleague are planning on working on the same file you can do this through hotmail.com, it needs to be saved in the OneDrive of the sender. You can check whoever is editing the document on the bottom left corner.
Large files
Users can send up to 10 GB files in a single mail. The file is hosted on the OneDrive service which gives users 25 GB of free space. When you send the large files (documents or images) over email, the recipient only receives the URL of that file. When the recipient clicks on the link he can download the file. It is not necessary for recipient to have a OneDrive account in order to download it.
Send as many pictures as you would like, using Hotmail login. The images will get uploaded to OneDrive and the link is sent in the email.
Hotmail.com now allows you to filter your messages and updates according to social updates, emails from regular contacts or groups very easily.
Sorting emails
You can sort emails to only "Photos" or only "documents" for quick viewing. Imagine you only want to see a photo and you are in a hurry you can click on the photos link given on the left pane.
Hotmail now includes the search autocomplete feature. This is very helpful in case you forgot exactly what you were searching for, you just need type in a few words of the email and the search results will appear. You can also type the email address from which the mail was sent and narrow it down.
This feature will help keep your inbox free of unwanted emails and spams. Suppose you have signed up for a newsletter you no longer read. All you need to do is check the mail, click on the "Sweep" button and choose to Move all from or Delete all from.
- High-speed Email Service
The first and foremost purpose of making Hotmail was to introduce to the information technology industry paperless communication.
Not only did Hotmail do this but also it made this communication become faster. Messages can be transferred within minutes, as well as files, documents and everything in between.
2. Personal Folders
People often use the same email ID for different purposes and at times they might gt confused while sorting them. With a Hotmail Id you can have this sorted. One of the best user-friendly features that Hotmail has provided is the personal folder feature where you can create folders according to your needs and wants and this way each of the emails can be sorted in its folder to get easy access to it.
Besides, it can save time and effort in sorting or finding emails for future use. Also, this element creates a positive impact on users.
3.Connected Socially
Hotmail login can give you the freedom of syncing different social media accounts to it. This can be a great advantage for contact management or managing important events and such other things. This feature can make you have the facility of connecting with people as Hotmail makes it feasible for users.
Overall, I'd say the new Hotmail login definitely looks promising. Some of the features are innovative and aren't there in any other email tools including Gmail.
While it may not prompt users to make a complete switch to Hotmail, They should give it a try for sure. What do you think? Is it worth changing to Hotmail? What features do you like?

The works of Berlin-based artist Matthias Dornfeld are utterly direct; there is no gradual approach with them. As a viewer, you are immediately thrown into the middle of things, surrounded by large-format paintings in bright colours which have no desire to deny gravity and that invite a haptic experience. Four-legged creatures wearing high-heels can be seen, their silhouettes elegantly accentuated and their objective appearance distorted into something dynamic and strange.
Portraits, still lifes, interiors, these 'clichés', as the artist himself describes them, are typical genres within art history based on hundreds of years of tradition. But what is innovative, what is relevant? Thematically it seems unimportant whether you see a flower or a head, a table or a quadruped. Every object is a phenomenon, a type of placeholder where a quickly applied, carefully dripped, painterly element of colour unites with a drawn line to become a sign in a place. As an observer you are challenged to consciously and self-referentially reflect on your perception in order to discover that neither your own subjectivity, nor that of the artist, can be evaded. Even if the image lacks a concrete background, unfixed in terms of context, a film still unfolds in your head. Through the immediacy of the subject matter, through the striking visibility of the brushstroke and the technique, the artist does not make 'something' (person or horse) appear, but rather "helps the very aura of the painting come into its own." [1]
Painting as a process and the work as a result are mutually dependent. It is not the depiction of affective experience that is decisive here, but rather the deviation from common codes, from (academically) shaped viewing habits. "The work occurs in the interstice of distance." [2] By keeping a foundation of pre-existing tropes while at the same time giving them a new meaning, differences to the originals become a central concern. It is evident that the artist constantly examines this polarisation produced by painting. Driven by questions such as 'Is this still acceptable or is it total rubbish?' his lively creative process lets the "psychopathically charged" [3] speak for itself as a broadening of the possible.

Study: Bennies satisfied with CB
WASHINGTON - A new study that CMS will soon send to Congress flies in the face of providers who argue that competitive bidding decreases the quality of service beneficiaries receive.
CMS's Mark Wynn told providers at AAHomecare's Legislative Conference last month that the study shows, overall, beneficiaries are satisfied with the service they've received in the Polk County competitive bidding demonstration project.
Wynn, a senior social science research analyst with CMS, said the study comprised 23 categories, and in 21 of the 23 categories, there was no difference in the satisfaction reported by beneficiaries before and after the demonstration. In the two other categories, beneficiaries reported slightly more satisfaction after the demonstration, Wynn said. Wynn said the study is due to come out of CMS's Office of Research Development Information (ORDI). An official from that office said the report is in "clearance," but she didn't know when it would be sent to Congress or made public. HME

Some spare time in the Torquay
A few 120mm pictures taken in Torquay on my Holga 120GN.
Last month I had the pleasure of photographing the Young Farmers Convention in Torquay for a leading industry publication.
While there, I was afforded a couple of hours to go out and explore the town. For some reason, I decided to bring my Holga 120GN – a plastic camera which has previously given me mixed results, more often than not.
To avoid all that, this time I attacked the Holga with some masking tape – ensuring that the back wouldn't fall off and that the shutterspeed wouldn't accidentally get set to bulb mode again.
Low and behold, I managed to get some pretty respectable results from it.
I'm calling the selection here, "A Holga in Torquay".

Support for assisted suicide in Scotland falls dramatically when people are presented with arguments against the practice, a new survey has found.
The poll comes ahead of today's Stage 1 vote at Holyrood, on a Bill to allow people as young as 16 to get help to kill themselves.
The survey of 1,044 Scottish adults, commissioned by CARE (Christian Action Research and Education), showed that support for assisted suicide fell from 73 per cent to just 45 per cent after their responses to different arguments against assisted suicide were taken into account.
According to the poll, 22 per cent of those backing assisted suicide changed their minds when told about the risk that people will feel pressurised into ending their life early so as not to be a financial or care burden on loved ones.
Close to a quarter (23 per cent) dropped their support when told about the consequences of legalising assisted suicide or euthanasia in other countries.
A steady increase in the number of cases has followed legalisation, and the practice has widened to involve people with chronic diseases, disabled people, children as well as those with mental illnesses and dementia.
Dr Stuart Weir, National Director of CARE for Scotland, said: "Scotland has a proud history of helping the most vulnerable and that extends to those at the end of their lives."
"There are good reasons to abandon this legislation and what we have seen is when people are shown these arguments, support for assisted suicide declines at quite an astonishing rate.
"We should be helping people to live, not trying to facilitate premature death", he concluded.
Lack of clarity
The Bill to legalise assisted suicide in Scotland has attracted criticism from politicians, legal professionals and faith leaders.
Alison Britton, convener of the Law Society of Scotland's Health and Medical Law Committee said: "We remain concerned over the lack of definition of the key terms, such as 'assistance' and 'life-shortening' and the functions of the licensed facilitator are still uncertain.
"Lack of such clarity leads to ambiguity and leaves the legislation open to interpretation."
Revd Sally Foster-Fulton, convener of the Kirk's Church and Society Council, said: "We believe that rather than seeking to legislate for assisted dying, the Parliament must instead increase its efforts to ensure that there is high-quality palliative care available to people in every part of Scotland.
And Muslim leaders from the Council of Imams Scotland have written to MSPs urging them to vote against the Bill.
The letter said: "Any change in the law to allow assisted suicide or euthanasia would be unethical, unnecessary, dangerous and contrary to the common good."

Etisalat is making a major digital showcase in 'Mobility' at GITEX Technology Week 2017 by bringing autonomous transportation and connected car technology with M2M and IoT in the spotlight.
This is in line with Etisalat's objective to highlight its role in 'Dubai Autonomous Transportation Strategy' by bringing global leaders in autonomous transport to Dubai providing an insight into the future for all visitors at GITEX.
In the past two years at GITEX, Etisalat has successfully launched connected cars with global automobile manufacturers 'Nissan' and 'Toyota'. These cars are empowered by Etisalat's network, M2M, and IoT control centre platform. This GITEX, Etisalat announced Tesla Model X with its connected platform empowering one of the first global electric car with its technology and network.
Another exciting showcase is the autonomous driving research vehicle Mercedes-Benz F 015 which is making its regional debut at Etisalat stand during GITEX Technology Week. Visitors get an exclusive sneak peek into the future of mobility, which aims to transform the vehicle from a mode of transport to a comfortable mobile living space.
Etisalat also brings the global major Rinspeed Etos's concept car, another self-driving vehicle that makes a grand showcase on the stand and highlights the new world of automobile technologies.
Autonomous transportation was also a focus at GSMA's Mobile 360-MENA, a two day conference taking place on the sidelines of GITEX Technology Week. Smart Dubai, one of the key participants at the event has taken the lead in the country to bring this to a reality by working on strategic pillars that will help make this a reality.
Wesam Lootah, CEO, Smart Dubai Government says: "Digital mobility is an important element of our country's digital future, our strategy driven by RTA and the government aims to achieve 25 percent of autonomous transportation in Dubai by 2030, saving AED 22 billion in annual economic costs. This is enabled by four strategic pillars mainly open and shared data, management of devices and IoT, digital identity and block chain. Device management is key to security and communication as people's lives and digital identity is at risk. Blockchain is also going to play an important role in autonomous transportation as there are billions of data exchanged and with Dubai government aiming to become the first blockchain-powered government by 2020 it's going to gain further relevance."
Dr Ahmed Bin Ali, senior vice president, corporate communication, Etisalat Group says: "Etisalat's objective is to drive the digital future by taking the lead in innovation to bring futuristic technologies from around the world to UAE and the region. This year we have again unraveled the connected car platform with Tesla, which highlights Etisalat's connected car platform designed to meet the growing consumer demand for revolutionary technologies and help the automobile industry to launch futuristic platforms and vehicles. Autonomous transportation is another technology, which is attracting a lot of interest worldwide and on our stand this year with Mercedes-Benz F 015 research vehicle and Rinspeed Etos concept car. This also supports the Dubai government's strategic direction and long term vision for Smart Driverless Mobility."

Cover letter blunders you need to stay clear of
Your cover letter resembles a handshake it s exactly how you introduce yourself to companies when you obtain a job. Like a good handshake, you want your cover letter to be solid, succinct, and also make an excellent impression.
This isn t a part of the task application process you intend to cut corners on, either. A cover letter enables you to enter into even more detail than your return to allows, explain gaps in your employment history or your requirement for a profession adjustment, and make a situation about why you would be a great suitable for the setting. As well as a great cover letter can open up the door to scoring an interview as well as, inevitably, landing a job.
Make certain your very first impact is a good and also lasting one by staying clear of these common errors below when writing your cover letter.
1. Overusing I.
Your cover letter is not your memoir. The emphasis must get on exactly how you meet a company's requirements, not on your life tale. Prevent the assumption of being self-centered by reducing your usage of words "I," specifically at the beginning of your sentences.
2. Using a weak opening.
When creating a cover letter, task hunters often deal with the cover letter's opening. This problem often leads to a feeble intro lacking punch and cannot get the visitor's interest. Consider this instance:.
Weak: Please consider me for your sales agent opening.
Much better: Your need for a top-performing sales rep is an excellent suit to my three-year history as a top-ranked, multimillion-dollar producer.
3. Omitting your top selling points.
A cover letter is a sales letter that sells you as a prospect. Similar to your resume, it needs to be engaging and provide the primary factors you ought to be asked for an interview. Winning cover letter tips include stressing your leading achievements or developing subheadings chosen from the job posting. :.
Your ad specifies: Interaction abilities.
I use: Five years of public speaking experience and also a considerable background in executive-level report.
Your ad specifies: The need for a strong computer history.
I offer: Proficiency in all MS Workplace applications with additional know-how in internet site growth and layout.
4. Making it also long.
If your cover letter exceeds one page, you might be placing visitors to rest. A wonderful cover letter is succinct however engaging, and respects the visitor's time.
5. Repeating your resume word for word.
Your cover letter should not regurgitate just what gets on your return to. Rephrase your cover letter statements to avoid dulling your resume's effect. Consider using the letter to tell a short tale, such as "my most difficult sale" or "my most significant technological difficulty.".
6. Being vague.
If you're responding to an advertised opening as opposed to writing a cold cover letter reference the particular work title in your cover letter. The individual reviewing your letter might be evaluating hundreds of letters for lots of different tasks. See to it every one of the web content in your letter sustains just how you will certainly fulfill the company's particular demands.
7. Forgetting to tailor.
If you're applying to a number of similar settings, possibilities are you're tweaking one letter as well as using it for several openings. That's penalty, as long as you personalize each letter. Don't neglect to update the firm, work and also call info if Mr. Jones is attended to as Ms. Smith, he won't be excited.
8. Upright a passive note.
When possible, place your future in your personal hands with a guarantee to adhere to up. Rather than asking viewers to call you, attempt a statement similar to this: I will comply with up with you in a couple of days to address any kind of initial questions you might have. In the meanwhile, you may reach me at (555) 555-5555.
9. Being disrespectful.
Your cover letter must say thanks to the viewers for his or her time as well as factor to consider.
10. Neglecting to sign the letter.
It appertains service rules (as well as reveals focus on information) to authorize your letter. Err on the side of rule, and also if you need any aid determining how you can close your cover letter, consider these possible sign-offs. Nonetheless, if you are sending an e-mail cover letter and resume, a signature isn't essential.

|West Ken Residents Granted Judicial Review
Judge says lawfulness of Earls Court plan is "clearly arguable"
Residents of West Kensington and Gibbs Green estates are celebrating after being granted a judicial review of plans to demolish their homes.
The council recently approved the transfer of the estates to developer Capco, so they can be part of the major regeneration of the Earls Court area.
Now however, the residents have been granted a judicial review of the process which agreed the development plan document for the area, which they say was flawed.
Granting the review, Lord Judge Sycamore said: "I am satisfied that … this is a case for full consideration at a substantive hearing. The question as to what constitutes a development plan document and the lawfulness of the defendants' master plan for the area is clearly arguable and should be considered."
Hammersmith and Fulham Council's planning applications committee, meeting on Wednesday, September 12 approved the proposal for outline planning permission, subject to conditions and a legal agreement for the redevelopment of 57 acres of land at West Kensington and Earls Court.
The approval came despite continued protests from the majority of residents in West Kensington and Gibbs Green housing estates, whose homes would be bulldozed to may way for the scheme.
It also came despite the fact that a design team formed at the invitation of the two local councils involved, Hammersmith and Fulham and Kensington and Chelsea, said it did not support the application in its current form.
Along with the recently approved Seagrave Road planning application and an application submitted to the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea for the remainder of the redevelopment proposals, the council says it would create up to 7,583 new homes, of which 760 will be replacement estate homes and 740 will be additional intermediate affordable homes.
Last month, H&F Council's Cabinet agreed to enter into a Conditional Land Sale Agreement (CLSA) with EC Properties, a subsidiary of Capital and Counties Properties PLC, and the council says once this CLSA is signed the council will eventually receive a total of £105million, an estimated £54million of which, after compensation and costs, would be available to be reinvested back in the Borough.
It is uncertain at this stage what effect the judicial review will have on the proposed development. Campaigners in Shepherd's Bush attempting to stop the demolition of shops adjacent to Shepherd's Bush Market were also granted a judicial review which rules in their favour, but the council say this does not affect their scheme as planning permission was granted against the borough's core strategy, rather than the local planning document ruled flawed on that occasion.
A Council spokesperson said: "The High Court action against our planning guidance has no impact on the Council's recent resolution to grant planning consent, nor does it affect the recent decision to enter into a Conditional Land Sale Agreement with EC Properties LP.
"The guidance, which is used to help determine planning applications in the area, was adopted following a full consultation. We are confident that our procedures were correct and will be vigorously defending the claim. "
The council has 35 days to respond to the order.

Bellevue, WA—Although the link between leadership and effective communication has long been acknowledged, developing the latter is still easier said than done. At the 2015 annual meeting of the National Organization of Rheumatology Managers (NORM), Tracy L. Spears, CEO of the Exceptional Leaders Lab, discussed the importance of this seemingly elusive skill, offering straightforward strategies that can be applied immediately in one's practice—increasing teamwork and employee productivity in the process.
For Ms Spears, understanding communication begins with the 4 stages of learning. The first stage, unconscious incompetence, is an individual's lack of awareness of his or her own incompetence. Or as Ms Spears put it: "You have no idea that you have no idea."
A hands-on demonstration—simple to visualize but not so simple to execute—provided the explanation. From head to hip, on both sides of her body, Ms Spears shifted her right hand and her left—simultaneously but asymmetrically.
Okay, maybe it is not so easy to visualize, but it is even harder to execute. The point was, the audience was firmly ensconced in the second stage of learning—conscious incompetence.
"Now you're aware that you're not very good at something," Ms Spears laughed, as people struggled in vain against the flailing of their own limbs.
You might be wondering, What does this have to do with leadership?
"Too often we bring people into our practice with great expectations, and we thrust them into an environment that's a little different than how they've ever operated before," Ms Spears explained.
In other words, new employees frequently find themselves stuck, like the audience, at stage 2 of the process. Getting people over this hump of the learning curve is thus a critical part of leadership. Some thrive in an unfamiliar environment, summoning vast reserves of inner motivation. Others flounder. The trick is to identify those who are suffering but unable to reach out and address that state of initial anxiety.
"Effective communication involves empathy," said Ms Spears, "but it's also about reinforcing expectations."
Whether helping a fledgling hire gain competence in a new role or addressing those members of the team who are underperforming for other reasons, leadership demands practice in what Ms Spears calls the crucial conversation.
"A crucial conversation," said Ms Spears, "is one in which, if you don't have the conversation, things are not going to better."
Because we naturally avoid confrontation in our lives, Ms Spears simplified the process, offering an easy-to-follow outline for these necessary exchanges.
The script goes as follows:
- Explain the reason for the meeting.
- This concerns me because….
- Confirm the individual's understanding of the issue.
- Make a clear coaching recommendation.
- Confirm the recommendation and have the individual repeat it back.
- Set up a review time.
- Clarify your confidence in the person.
Although mastery of the crucial conversation is challenging, to avoid it altogether is to risk compromising the culture of your practice.
"The number one problem that people have in leadership," Ms Spears explained, "is [not] having a crucial conversation. What makes somebody a great leader is having the ability to take someone who is underperforming and to inspire them to perform at a higher level."
Great leaders have this conversation, said Ms Spears, helping their employees transition to stage 3 of the learning process (conscious competence) and, ultimately, to the mastery of stage 4 (unconscious competence).
When it comes to the hands trick, however, I'm still stuck on stage 2.

This is a well-established principle in the world of cross-country glider flying, based on some aerodynamics work by the late, great Paul Macready. Matthew

Long live the Tri-Champ! Jack, you really touched a nerve. I'm a dedicated tail wheel pilot.

Re: Callback #397 - is about UAVs
Interesting read. It's certainly not difficult to spot the trend in these reports. I'm interested to see what (if any) downstream repercussions there are for UAV owners, operators, and builders as a result of violating an ATC clearance in normal airspace. When a GA pilot busts a clearance, ATC provi...

I don't disagree with concerns about a drone's capacity to see and avoid other aircraft, but higher on my list is the danger drones pose to people on the ground. I'd like to see how a faltering UAV decides where to set down based on the risk to human life. Our benevolent friends at the FAA gave us 9...

Re: Episode #277 "Guaranteed Late Arrival"
The discussion about time to solo piqued my interest and provoked some thought. I think one of the bigger factors impacting time-to-solo is aircraft complexity: My training aircraft was a C140 with only the basic instruments and controls, so my pre-solo time was very focused on basic airmanship and ...

I was in Vegas this week for a convention, and I had a weird airline experience of my own on the flight home: a nearly empty flight.

Tapping altimeters
Jack, give yourself a pat on the back: you were spot on with your suggestion that the Taylorcraft pilot mentioned in Episode #256 was tapping his altimeter to shake out the friction in his altimeter. Engineers call this friction "hysteresis plus deadband", but pilots of old gliders (old gl...

My 2 cents
Glider flying should get a plug here as well. For most of us, gliders can't get you to Grandma's house any time of the year on a moments notice, but 100% of the learning in a glider is applicable to power flying, and it often costs significantly less. At my local club, dues are $25/month, and rental...

There's nothing more creepy, yet simultaneously intriguing, like an abandoned theme park. Instead of smiling children, you see overgrown roller coasters and lonely Ferris wheels with their decaying and peeling paint. Worldwide you can find dozens of disused theme parks that are completely absorbed by nature. Sometimes the reason for the derelict site is a natural or even nuclear disaster, serious accident or bankruptcy. The latter happened to the now abandoned theme park Land van Ooit (Land of Ever) in the Netherlands. I grew up just 15 minutes from there and visited it in its heyday. Recently I went back after a long time and stumbled upon this surreal scene.
What and where is the abandoned theme park Land van Ooit?
You can find the theme park Land van Ooit (Land of Ever) in Drunen close to the must-visit city of Den Bosch, in the south of the Netherlands. I grew up in Oud-Heusden, which is within cycling distance of Drunen. I can still remember when the new amusement park was opened in the late 80s. (Yes dude, I am that old.)
That was quite an event and I found it fascinating. Because how often does a new amusement park open so close to your house? Isn't that the dream of every child?!
Even before the park opened, we noticed a few remarkable things. Like the opening of a new bus stop – at, in my opinion, the most illogical and perilous place. Or the sight of two life-sized giants right across from the road next to the future park. Land van Ooit was supposed to be a true fairy-tale kingdom, specifically aimed at children up to 12 years old.
A fairy-tale kingdom with an authentic 13th-century castle!
As soon as you walked through the gates, you found yourself in a true fairy-tale world, full of wonderful characters. With knights, ladies, footmen and aforementioned friendly giants.
This Pink Castle was once one of the park's iconic images. Little remains of the derelict theme park Land van Ooit, but this building is still standing. That's because it's an authentic 13th-century castle and a listed Heritage Building.
What's left of the fairy-tale?
Besides the Pink Castle, the attraction 'The Battle of Waterloo' is the biggest eye-catcher in today's ghost park. The story goes that when Napoleon and his army travelled through the Land of Ooit, they turned into statues. The statues originally stood in a fountain in which you saw the soldiers slowly disappear into the water. Now they make for an eerie sight.
When the park went bankrupt, they sold off the attractions and also demolished most of the buildings. Here and there you will find a graffitied wall or overgrown sign.
Can you visit the abandoned amusement park Land van Ooit?
Yes, you can! You can just walk (or cycle) in for free. But probably not for long.
The theme park closed its doors after a bankruptcy in 2007. The council then bought up the 34-hectare estate, including the castle. With the construction of a new connecting road, it was an attractive piece of land. At least, that's what the council thought. In practice, there appeared to be little interest in purchasing this area with a price tag of at least € 20 million.
After 8 years of fruitless attempts to sell off the land, part of the abandoned theme park was opened to the public again in 2015. It's now possible to cycle and walk through it, or visit for an 'urbex' (urban exploration) photo session.
In the meantime, the council never stopped to try and sell the estate. Over the years I've seen several building proposals, ranging from a new theme park to a hotel. The latest plans I've heard of seen include the construction of a high-tech medical centre, luxury homes and (care) apartments. The castle will also be restored to its original state and will probably be painted white.
It's not yet clear to me when (and if) this construction project will start, but if you still want to see the abandoned theme park Land van Ooit with its Pink Castle with your own eyes, I recommend you to visit quickly!
My personal memories of the park
Although I lived so close-by, I only visited it once during its 17 years of existence. I was slightly too old for this children's theme park. But I did take my 6-year-old nephew there one day (20 years ago already, ¡ay caramba!). I was quite surprised to see how well-known Land van Ooit was among children. Even with my nephew who lived in Friesland, more than 200 kilometers away.
When I sat down in the back of the theatre during a music performance, I saw my nephew and his peers perform the choreography flawlessly while they sang along the songs word for word with the actor. It appeared that almost all children in the Netherlands knew the Land van Ooit from their television programme. From this popular children's TV show, children learned the theatre songs and were introduced to the characters who 'lived' in the park.
And the realisation that my nephew was also well acquainted with the television programme was obvious soon after this theatre visit. Unsuspectingly I became involved in a real chase after my nephew spotted some of his favourite characters in the wild. Thankfully he did not walk so quickly with his short legs at the time, and in the end we managed to catch the eye of the footman and lady so that he could greet them and shake their hand. Of course I was his favourite aunt that day. At least, I was in my imagination. (I often experience strange 'adventures', such as getting lost in Singapore shopping malls.)
"Children are the boss"
With this motto visitors were greeted at the entrance. Really, the person who made this up was probably a sadist. Because, just imagine trying to get a child to eat his vegetables or take a shower after having visited the theme park without constantly having the sentence Children are the boss thrown back at you…
From fairy-tale park to ghost park
As mentioned, I have witnessed the opening of the Land van Ooit up close. I can still remember I found it quite strange that a whole new family theme park was being built less than 20 kilometres away from the Efteling. After all, Efteling is one of the oldest, largest and best-known theme parks in the Netherlands. How on earth could you compete against this?
It turned out that the Land van Ooit was founded by a former director of Efteling, Marc Taminiau. But unlike Efteling, Land van Ooit focussed on theatre and not so much on attractions. Theatre for children, specifically for the very young ones.
Despite Taminiau's many attempts, he still failed to make his theatrical fairy-tale park a success. It turned out that the intended target group was too limited. But they also simply couldn't compete with their "big brother" the Efteling. And so, after about 17 years, the Land van Ooit closed its doors for good and grew into a true ghost park.
Do you know of an abandoned theme park or have you ever visited one?

It is one of the oldest of Morocco's imperial capitals and the largest and best preserved medieval city of the Arab world. In this tangle of streets at first sight disorganized, you will find a very active trade, mosques, running water fountains, the oldest university in the world, traditional architecture palaces, madrasas and craftsmen. And we will talk about all these things, here.

So much can go into a baby nursery and when you are shopping for a baby it can be a bit overwhelming to decide what's essential and which items are extra. Here are some of my personal favorites for decking out my baby's nursery and keeping my baby cozy all winter long.
Easy-Change Crib Bedding
Most babies sleep in a crib or start off in a pack-in-play in mom's room and graduate to a crib. QuickZip Zip-On Crib Sheets make it easy to change your baby's crib sheet with a zip-off design that is simple to swap out and zip back onto the crib sheet base. You no longer have to wrestle with picking up your crib mattress to fit the sheet around the furthest corners. Simply place the QuickZip sheet base around the crib mattress, and zip sheets on and off as often as you'd like. I also love that QuickZip sheets come in soft cotton material and silky minky fabrics, also available in all standard sheet sizes.
This easy-pull zipper tab makes it simple to swap out the top QuickZip crib sheet, even in the middle of the night! QuickZip pre-shrunk, 100% cotton and organic cotton sheets save you time and hassle and are safer for baby because they can't accidentally pop off the mattress.
Cozy Sleep Space
A BabeeTalk Crib Rail Cover is also nice for giving your crib rail some extra padding and stylish flair at the same time! My little guy is often standing and leaning against this padded crib rail cover when I go to get him up in the mornings. The cute ties and Velcro fasteners securely keep the crib rail cover in place.
Kick-Resistant Blanket Pouch
We would have a hard time keeping baby safely snug in the winter without a Cozy Blanket Pouch from Revelae Kids. This unique baby blanket keeps baby cozy from the waist down and secures with a soft elastic waistband. The design makes it hard for baby to kick off and they can't pull any extra fabric up near their face. I used this blanket pouch almost every night with my little guy to keep him warm within a safe sleep space. Blanket Pouches are also perfect for lounging around the house during the day. I love this photo of my little guy, he used to be so tiny!
DIY Wood Nursery Wall Art
I really enjoyed creating this custom wood wall art sign for my little guy's nursery. I made it using 3 panels of wood and painted on the words "Grow in Wisdom, Grace, Strength & Courage" using DIY lettering stencils. This whimsical piece of wall art is one of a kind and offers simple but eye-catching decor on my nursery wall.

Creative Nursery Organization
Nurseries can really pile up with lots of baby toys, accessories, clothing, and baby gear. I try to keep essentials organized close at hand and the many individual baby items sorted and out of sight. You can find many creative ways to organize your baby clothes and basic essentials.

Soft Baby Sleepers
Your little one will be snug as a big in a soft PAIGELAUREN romper, available in a range of styles and colors for babies 0-9 months. I love the soft Organic fabrics and thoughtful high quality details within these modern, tailored baby clothes that feel amazing. PAIGELAUREN baby clothing is designed for moms who want the best for their babies and who appreciate clothes that never go out of style. This darling outfit is the perfect first fashion statement for a new baby, or a fabulous baby shower gift for a new mom! Just pair this romper with a set of soft leather baby moccs and a cute wooden rattle and you are all set!
Adorbs Baby Leggings
Looking to doll your little one up this winter? Doodle Pants cozy baby leggings are adorable knit pants available in a variety of styles and each design has a cute character or illustration on the bum. Doodle Pants are super cozy and can be worn for dressing up or casual wear. Keeping baby warm is a top priority and with Doodle Pants you don't have to sacrifice style for warmth.
Sustainable Baby Toys
I love finding baby toys are unique and support a good cause at the same time! Pebble knit toys are made with Fair Trade practices by local women in Bangladesh. Pebble Child offers a wide variety of knit blocks, hats, cute baby rattles shaped as doughnuts and fruits, knit character key chains, and knit animals that are sure to become favorites. Each knit item offers the sensory texture of high quality yarn and soft color palettes. I personally love the muted colors and darling knit details on these contemporary baby toys.
Interactive Sensory Play
The NogginStik Developmental Light-up Rattle is a fun toy for babies who are beginning to explore their surroundings. The NogginStik encourages early milestones in infants as a first learning toy. The NogginStik head lights up with movement and glows red, blue and green to stimulate a baby's eyes and visual tracking. The base of the NogginStik makes a soft rattling sound and the handle is perfectly sized for a baby's hand and features fun textures.
My little guy loved playing with this rattle when he was too young to play with anything else, and now his favorite game is to throw it. The NogginStik by SmartNoggin Toys is well made and holds up well even through rough play. The lights are still glowing even after several months of use. This rattle is a unique baby shower gift that a baby can enjoy from day one; even an infant can enjoy the glowing colors!
What are your favorites for baby nursery essentials? Every mom has their own routine and way of doing things to keep baby comfortable and snug. I hope you enjoyed learning about some of our favorites for a baby nursery!

Expelled BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar was recently convicted by a Delhi court of kidnapping and raping a minor girl from Unnao two years ago, and is currently in the Tihar jail serving a life sentence.
In a recent development, the doctor who treated the rape victim's father, who was brutally thrashed in police custody in April 2018, has died in a mysterious manner. The father of the victim, who was later discharged after first-aid, died in custody the same day. Following a CBI inquiry, the doctor, Prashant Upadhyaya (45), was suspended but had later been reinstated and posted in Fatehpur.
The doctor was rushed to a hospital after he complained of uneasiness but he was declared brought dead by the doctors. It is rather intriguing to note that the case related to the murder of the rape victim's father is scheduled to come up in court on Tuesday. Upadhyaya's body has been sent in for a post-mortem. Further details are awaited.

Excitement's building in the world of local basketball ahead of the appearance of the Jordanstown-based Ulster Elks in the final of the National Shield on Sunday.
It's a tough ask for Elks U18s who are competing for the coveted trophy with Connacht outfit Moycullen – they beat the Ulster girls in the semi-final of the All-Ireland Championships last year. Add to that the fact that the Galway team have home advantage in the match at the Kingfisher Sports Stadium and the size of the task facing the team becomes apparent.
But the Elks aren't going to make up the numbers and they're confident they can cause an upset in what's an eagerly anticipated game. The Ulster side boasts three Irish internationals in Anna Maguire, Brianna Mulhern and Verity O'Connor and the desire to avenge last year's painful defeat is driving them on in their preparations for the game.
Having disposed of Killester, Sligo Warriors and St Mary's Castleisland in impressive fashion on their way to the final, Elks go into the game in a rich vein of form. And a place in the history books awaits if Elks can produce the goods – they're the first team from Belfast and the first team from Ulster to compete for the U18 National Shield and taking the title home to Belfast would be a huge shot in the arm for Ulster basketball.
Elks point guard Brianna Mulhern knows the size of the task facing her team – Moycullen also have three Irish internationals in their line-up and know what victory tastes like.
"Moycullen are holders of two national titles and titles are not won easily," she said. "We know they will fill the stands with noisy supporters but we intend to soak up the atmosphere and revel in playing in a game of this magnitude. I was lucky enough to be part of the St Genevieve's team that won an U19 title last year in overtime and I know that experience will stand me. We have trained hard all year and we hope to reap the benefits on Sunday."
The game will be streamed live on www.basketballireland.ie/ and highlights will be shown on TG4. Tip-off is at 10am.
