Must Winebar
From the bistro and bar, to a killer wine list and French eats, Must Winebar's got it all. On a Saturday night, the whole of Beaufort Street seems to know it.
The restaurant is snug with a communal noisiness that stretches from the bar to the kitchen. The waiters are eternally busy but attentive, doling out baskets of the house-baked baguette, which usually ends up shattered all over the table. It's not fine dining, but it's so much more satisfying.
This is French food with local ingredients, no holds barred. The duck pate is infused with black truffles, the oysters are freshly shucked and the charcuterie is cured in-house. Mains are a cast of regulars that rarely ever leave the menu. Copy the rest of the dining room and order the steak frites with béarnaise sauce. Or the angel-hair pasta with blue manna crab and basil cream, which is rich, but balanced.
There's also that wine list of repute. The cellar covers the globe but retains an emphasis on Aussie reds and an enviable range of champagne, adding a refined touch to any date night. Keep an eye out for the Must calendar of events that covers everything from exclusive wine dinners to seafood cooking classes.

As a high-level government auditor, Beth Kennedy has investigated or reviewed the spending of many city of Los Angeles departments without serious incident, she says.
But now, Kennedy, a chief internal auditor for City Controller Ron Galperin, is alleging that she was warned not to delve too deeply into controversial contracts awarded by the Department of Water of Power, according to a legal claim she filed against the city last month.
In her claim, she says city officials failed to protect her after she began investigating several contracts, including a $30-million, no-bid consulting contract to fix the DWP's billing system — an agreement that is now under scrutiny by the FBI.
Kennedy claims that a superior in her office told her in May that, for personal safety reasons, she should "not be as thorough" with her audit. Then in June, someone smashed a glass patio door at Kennedy's home in Orange County, according to La Habra police.

Just before the infamous masque in Romeo and Juliet, in which the 'star-crossed lovers' first touch palms to the tune of some of Shakespeare's most eloquent and memorable verse, the playwright briefly presents his audience with a relatively mundane, everyday domestic scene involving servants scurrying around 'Capulet's house' to make way for the revelry. First Servant shouts orders stating "Away with the joint-stools, remove the court-cupboard, look to the plate" (1.4.118-119). The several items listed were, incidentally, all frequently found in lists of goods in houses across the social spectrum in Shakespeare's England. Perhaps the most common item mentioned is the 'joint-stool'. Victor Chinnery's standard work on Oak Furniture describes the joint-stool as "among the most common and familiar piece[s] of furniture in seventeenth century England".
Easily transportable and relatively cheap, this sturdy but light-weight seat would have also proved useful as a prop on the Renaissance stage. In fact, stools are specifically listed as props in many plays from the period, including The Two Noble Kinsmen, Henry VIII, and Coriolanus.
Yet while this practical domestic item and its function on the Renaissance stage might, at first glance, appear relatively straightforward, joint-stools may also have triggered associations with magic and folklore for Shakespeare's audience! While evidence for folk beliefs is hard to find in the historical record, it was thought that witches were able to enchant certain objects, such as stools, to take on their appearance. This allowed them to trick their husbands into believing they were still at home when actually they were out causing harm. During her trial for witchcraft in Scotland in 1662, the housewife Issobell Gowdie admitted in detail to many of the alleged practices of witches. She claimed that witches would place a broom or stool beside their husbands in their beds and say this spell three times over: 'I lay down this broom or stool, in the Devil's name, let it not stir until I come again' so that immediately the object would take on the appearance of the wife beside their husband.
Cry you mercy, I took you for a joint-stool— Fool, King Lear act 3 scene 6
So, while the Fool apologises to Goneril in King Lear for mistaking her for one such item, possibly in an attempt to slight her, it may also have been his way of calling her a witch! Lady Macbeth's exasperation at her husband's crazy behaviour likewise alludes to the superstitious associations with joint-stools and witchcraft. For indeed, though she believes that her husband looks 'but on a stool' (3.4.68), Macbeth sees something altogether different – the ghost of Banquo!
This notion that such a humble household object, which on the one hand could be associated with warm cozy fires on cold nights, could also be transformed into an agent of malice, would have been an unsettling thought indeed.


text: Homepage chevron_rightBlogchevron_right Post Our Northwest 'Tis the season for package theft Thursday, November 15, 2018by Derek Wing Remember shaking your wrapped holiday packages as a kid, trying to guess what's inside? Rattle, rattle, rattle could mean Hot Wheels. (Yay!) But a light and quiet package? Likely socks or pajamas. (Ho-hum.)I wonder if porch pirates do the same thing.I'm guessing probably not, given the results of our latest PEMCO Poll. In it, nearly HALF (48%) of respondents said they've had a package swiped off their doorsteps. To me, that means a lot of porch pirates probably aren't too picky about what's hiding in the box.It also suggests there may be more we could do to thwart thieves hunting treasure on our welcome mats. In the Poll, one in four people admitted they don't take any special steps to try to safeguard packages left by delivery services.With package-theft season kicking into high gear, PEMCO's put together a list of things you can do to keep your holiday gifts out of a Grinch's grip. The top tip: No packages, no porch pirates. Route deliveries to your work address, if possible, or take advantage of safe-site pickups (offered, for example, by Fed Ex, Amazon, and UPS).And if you do fall victim to a porch pirate, here's hoping they make off with something like sprinkler system parts – all that tantalizing rattling only to reveal a box full of … "What's this?"Read the complete PEMCO Northwest Poll, in which we surveyed 1,200 Washington and Oregon residents.

Lemon Auto CBD is a cross of the famous "Dutch cut" of Amnesia with Philosopher Seeds' CBD-rich auto-flowering Juanita la Lagrimosa x Lowryder hybrid. The aim was to create a high-CBD, automatic version of the cannabis legend that is Amnesia producing the cannabinoids THC and CBD in a 1: 1 ratio.
Lemon Auto CBD will thrive in a wide range of environments and grow-media; indoors, outdoors, greenhouse and even guerilla farming "in the wild" in pots, the ground, coco-coir or hydroponics. Plants will grow to around 100 cm. tall maximum but if smaller plants are needed then pots of 5 - 7 liters are recommended. The bigger the pot the bigger the plant as root size is a major determining factor in overall plant size.
Indoor plants will reach their maximum potential with a light/dark regime of 20/4 with yields of between 450 - 500 gr/m2 in a total growing time of 70 - 75 days. Outdoors yields will be up to 125 - 150 gr/plant. The aromas and flavours of Lemon Auto CBD are intensely of limonene/citrus with some plants exuding a cherry scent towards the end of flowering.
With its 1:1 THC:CBD ratio with levels of each at 8% this is a great strain to be used for therapeutic purposes. Its effect is very calm and balanced giving a sense of tranquility which improves mood and well-being. It would be useful to counter stress and anxiety.

We are excited to share donated items that will be available at the 2019 Canadian Angus Foundation Building the Legacy fundraiser auction on June 8 in Drumheller, AB.
The Canadian Angus Foundation's Building the Legacy 8 catalogue is now available online:
Check out the catalogue and start planning your bids today!
Building the Legacy Sale has become Canadian Angus Foundation's main fundraiser focus and has been very successful in generating resources to further our mission.
The Canadian Angus Foundation functions to preserve and expand the Angus breed for future generations through education, youth development, scientific and market research, and historical preservation and restoration. The Canadian Angus Foundation was incorporated in 1993 and is the charitable arm of the Canadian Angus Association.
The vision of the Building the Legacy concept is to allow the Foundation to build monetary resources. The Foundation uses its funds to provide opportunities for our youth, young breeders and membership to grow in the areas of leadership, marketing, networking, animal husbandry, genetic improvement and to learn about developing tools to enhance Angus production. The vision also includes the importance of preserving Angus history. By fostering these areas we can ensure our Angus history is not lost and will keep Angus as the breed of choice for the commercial beef sector and end users for years to come.
Our vision is being realized and because of generous donors we can support initiatives, scholarships, travel bursaries and learning opportunities. Through benevolent giving of donated livestock, semen, embryos, items and experiences, and the purchasing of the auction offerings, we at the Foundation have been able to put together a great suite of opportunities for our Angus membership.

The Curriculum at George Street
We build our English curriculum around books, or excerpts from books throughout the school. From the youngest pupils, we aim to develop a love of stories – listening to them; role playing them; reading them and then using the good ideas to develop our own story telling and writing.
To develop reading skills, we use a phonological approach and use the RWI materials in early years and KS1. This includes very simple books that enable pupils to read words using the phonemes and graphemes they are being taught, with a corresponding quality children's book being read to the pupils. At this stage pupils also learn to write simple phrases and later sentences through teacher modelling, aural rehearsal and then independently writing. (see link to Ruth Miskin website).
Our curriculum does follow the National Curriculum for English, whilst currently we have a particular emphasis on spelling and the need to master punctuation relevant to each age group.
At George Street, we recognised that pupils needed to become more secure in their understanding in order to be able to reason and develop problem solving and . In order to support this we are using the Maths Essentials resources developed by HfL which emphasise a concrete, pictorial, abstract approach and we encourage pupils to use speaking frames to explain their work.
Mental fluency is an area that we are keen to improve from an early age and so we are looking at how to support pupils and parents, using various methods including on-line.
We follow the National Curriculum and have a programme of study whereby topic areas are revisited by pupils regularly during their time at primary school, but with increasing skill development and understanding using different resources. Whenever possible practical investigations are carried out incorporating the school grounds or the local area, whilst on-line resources can extend learning beyond Hemel Hempstead.
The school has purchased Purple Mash to support the computing curriculum, with a programme of study and assessment tool for each year group from Reception. This is a new initiative and CPD is underway for staff. A further set of 30 Google Chrome books have been purchased to support the teaching of computing skills and to enable ICT to be used in a cross curricular capacity.
Foundation Subjects
A series of cross curricular themes have been planned for each year group from Y1 upwards (EYFS plan their curriculum around the interests of the pupils but ensure coverage of the EYFS 7 areas of learning and development). The starting point of these were the Chris Quigley Creative Themes for KS1 and KS2, which were then developed to include the local area of Hemel Hempstead and to follow the principles as outlined in our Teaching and Learning policy.
Our Yearly Overviews which can be found on each class page outline key knowledge, where these are taught and how they link with other aspects of the curriculum.
The Foundation Stage team plan using the statutory framework for EYFS.
To find out more about the curriculum we follow, please ask any of the classteachers. The link below will take you to the Department for Education website and the national curriculum for England to be taught in all local authority-maintained schools.

It's almost impossible to sum up all that makes up Folk Alliance International. If you've been there before, you understand. It was my first year attending, and after years of hearing stories, I thought I was prepared. Folk Alliance is part family reunion, part party, part education, and an exploration of every nook and cranny that makes up the term "folk music."
I hadn't even made it past the lobby, suitcase in tow, before running into friends – new and old – catching up and feeling the beating heart of the community. And that was the pulse of the week: aim for one place, meet new friends, compare notes on what we'd seen and heard and what we were looking forward to, all while still moving. It was a hive of activity, to say the very least.
I was struck by the palpable mining of the roots of the music, both in performances and in the conversations around archival recordings. There is a conscious desire and effort to exploit and preserve the musical foundation of many cultures, while also cultivating the current music from all over the world. The new Global Summit on Archiving was one approach. Its goal was to connect archivists with those who seek out the collections, and to create a dialogue to solve issues like archive accessibility, use and provenance. An example is Jeremy Dutcher's "Wolastaqiyik Lintuwakonawa" project, where he had used recordings of his Canada First Nation ancestors to bring their songs back into the culture of his Wolastaq people, infusing them with his own contemporary visions for an album that is at once cultural touchpoint, song preserve, and beautiful bridge between past and future.
In that same vein I found Sam Lee's Song Collectors' Collective, where Lee and his team are seeking out the Gypsies and Travellers of Britain, Ireland and beyond to preserve their rich history of storytelling through song. I caught up with Jayme Stone's Folklife (the continuation of the project that began as the Lomax Project, mastered by David Glasser here at Airshow), a beautiful force that breathes new life into the songs found in field recordings, connecting us with the treasures and roots of folk music. I often get to mine archives that come through Airshow's doors, preserving history through restoration efforts, and it was incredible to see what opportunities lie beyond just the digitization of old media when it becomes accessible to artists who revere the musical roots of our cultures.
Beyond these efforts at FAI ran the constant buzz of the music that filled the hallways of the hotel and conference center. I spent my evenings wandering the halls with my ears perked, ducking into showcases to listen in on the oasis of fresh sounds and familiar ones. In each room I found something different from the next, all with the same supportive community around them, all with the infectious spirit of FAI.
This video from Folk Alliance captures some of the spirit of the event. Hope to see you in Montreal!
Day two recap: daytime panels and the first night of Official Showcases for #FAI30.

Civil Remedy for Human Rights BreachWilson v. Solis Mexican Foods Inc., 2013 ONSC 5799 (CanLII)
A London court awarded human rights damages in a wrongful dismissal action — the first such determination under provisions of the Ontario Human Rights Code that were enacted in 2008. Some see the Wilson decision as the leading edge of an increase in similarly based claims.
The court found that temporary illnesses or injuries are considered disabilities under Ontario's Human Rights Code. Wilson v. Solis Mexican Foods Inc., 2013 ONSC 5799 (CanLII), is the first decision in which the Superior Court has relied on s. 46.1, under which human rights claims can "piggyback" other civil claims.
The vast majority of such claims result in settlements.
Justice A. Duncan Grace awarded $20,000 in damages to Ms. Wilson, a certified general accountant. She had worked for Solis Mexican Foods Inc., for more than 16 months when she was terminated in May 2011. She received two weeks' pay in lieu of notice. She alleged she was terminated at least in part because of an ongoing back ailment and that her rights under the Human Rights Code were infringed.
Section 46.1(1) of the Code provides:
- If in a civil proceeding in a court, the court finds that a party to the proceeding has infringed a right under Part I [of the Code] of another party to the proceeding, the court may make either of the following orders, or both:
1. An order directing the party who infringed the right to pay monetary compensation to the party whose right was infringed for loss arising out of the infringement, including compensation for injury to dignity, feelings and self-respect.
2. An order directing the party who infringed the right to make restitution to the party whose right was infringed, other than through monetary compensation, for loss arising out of the infringement, including restitution for injury to dignity, feelings and self-respect.
Section 46.1(2) qualifies this right, stipulating that:
- "Subsection (1) does not permit a person to commence an action based solely on an infringement of a right under Part I [of the Code]."
Proceedings under this cause of action are conducted under the summary trial procedure of the simplified rules. Cases can be heard in a streamlined way.
In Wilson, the court also held that temporary illnesses or injuries are considered disabilities under the Code and that employers can't insist on a full recovery before an employee returns to work. Disability should play "no role whatsoever" in terminations; if it plays even a minor role, that establishes a prima facie discrimination basis in civil human rights claims, as it does at tribunals.
Available remedies include damages for loss of employment, reasonable notice damages and reinstatement.
Related Cases and Information:
Mackie v. Toronto (City) and Toronto Community Housing Corporation, 2010 ONSC 3801
The Plaintiff was found to have established a human rights issue alone, and not a civil cause of action. Therefore, the court lacked jurisdiction.
Stokes v. St. Clair College, 2010 ONSC 2133
Ontario Superior Court found that a s. 46.1 claim did not have to relate to the civil wrong basis for a claim. Section 46.1(2) requires that there be a wrong, not that it be related to the human rights claim.
Anderson v. Tasco Distributors, 2011 ONSC 269
In this case, the court found that, in enacting s. 46.1, the legislature intended to override case law predating the 2008 Code amendments. The notable case of Seneca College v. Bhadauria, 1981 CanLII 29 (SCC) had been raised in a motion to dismiss the claim. The Superior Court found that a civil wrong claim separate from the human rights claim, brings the matter within the jurisdiction of the civil courts.

BMW cars enjoy major price reductions with the 0% GST Rate
INGRESS Auto Puchong, BMW's authorised distributor in Malaysia, has received a significant increase in bookings ever since the government decided to implement a 0% GST rate taking effect since the 1st of June.
Mohd Azeman, Principal Dealer Ingress Auto Puchong, said, "The most significant reason for the rise in BMW model bookings is the vast price reduction after applying the 0% GST Rate".
An example he quoted is the price difference for the BMW X5 Hybrid that used to have a price tag of RM388,800 but has not dropped to RM366,000 after the revised GST rate. Similar reductions is seen with the BMW X1 model which now sells at RM216,000 as opposed to its previous price of RM230,000.
"Bookings for the BMW X1 and 3 Series have gone up by 20 and 50 percent respectively upon the implementation of the 0% GST rate", he said in a interview during a Buka Puasa event with customers organized by Ingress Auto Puchong yesterday.
The Buka Puasa function began at 7pm and went on till midnight. The social event was in tune with the current festive season and was open for all customers reaching nearly 200 people.
Mohd Azeman also said that in regard to the Hari Raya Aidilfitri that draws close, Ingress Auto Puchong will be offering many attractive giveaways such as 'Duit Raya from RM5000', free petrol card that is worth RM500, BMW Advanced Car Eye Camera and Coating & Tinting package worth up to RM2500, and many more for BMW car buyers up to 30th June 2018.
He is expecting vehicle sales to be on a steady rise between the months of June and August as compared to other months thanks mainly to the outcome of the recent 14th General Election.
He went on to say that Ingress Auto Puchong will increase their targeted sales projections from 320 to 360 units for multiple available models.
Mohd Azeman said that the 0% GST rate not only affects vehicle sales but also other automotive services such as spare parts, maintenance, and accessories.

One of the world's most sophisticated satellite tracking stations is nearing readiness in Malargüe, Argentina, 1200 km west of Buenos Aires. The massive, 35 m-diameter antenna will capture precious scientific data from missions voyaging hundreds of millions of kilometres into our Solar System.
The inauguration of Malargüe, set for 18 December, also marks the completion of the Agency's trio of deep-space antenna – DSA – stations as part of the Estrack network and confirms ESA as one of the world's most technologically advanced space organisations.
Joining DSA 1 in New Norcia, Australia, and DSA 2 in Cebreros, Spain, DSA 3 Malargüe provides the final leg in ESA's global coverage for deep-space probes including, today, Mars Express, Venus Express, Rosetta, Herschel and Planck, and, in the future, Gaia, BepiColombo, ExoMars, Solar Orbiter and Juice.

Dyls Cafe & Bar
If you love seeking out hidden gems when visiting new places, Dyls should be at the top of your list in York. This café and bar is situated within the highly unusual Motor House on Skeldergate Bridge, almost on top of the River Ouse and within view of nearby Clifford's Tower.
The Dyls team pride themselves on sourcing local produce from the likes of Haxby Bakehouse, Johnsons Farm Eggs, M&K Butchers, Staal Smokehouse, York Emporium and Yorvale.
In addition to a superb choice of cold drinks, the bar is crammed with artisan gins and bespoke cocktails.
It was a soup day (coconutty red lentil and sweet potato) when we visited but they offer plenty of light lunch options – such as M&K Butcher's pork & chive sausage sandwich; or smashed avocado, chilli & lime and slow-roasted tomatoes on seeded sourdough. It's a great place to go for brunch.
There are several little cosy and hidden rooms to settle into, plus spiral staircases with access from the bridge or river side for day or evening enjoyment and outside overlooking the river is a stunning sun trap.
Dyls is on the route when you walk around York's city walls, so we recommend you have that fuel stop just here!

Spring Fresh by MaDonna
Can you believe it is March 2015? I can't. I remember when I was a kid time didn't go very fast. Remember how long it took your birthday or Christmas to get here? The older you get the quicker the time goes. Which shouldn't be the way it is, but...
Our weather has been so great. We are going after another load of wood this afternoon so thought I would update the blog for March. Put a little bit of green in it!
We went to our oldest great grandson's basketball game yesterday. Took our daughter in law with us since their was no reason for us both to drive down. It is so much fun to watch these kids play. They put all their heart and soul into the games. He also plays lacrosse so he had a lacrosse game in the morning and the basketball in the afternoon. That seems a little bit too much. Most kids don't get enough exercise so it is great for them to get some, but it seems our kids, grandkids and great grandkids certainly get their share.
Same goes for work. Our 3 kids are workaholics! Both boys are blue collar workers, except their blue collars get way too much work. Both are working 6 or 7 10 hour days. Our daughter works over time a lot and some Saturday's. I wish they didn't have to work so hard so much. Wish we were rich so they wouldn't have to, but that train passed the station a long time ago. Both sons work in industries where welding is involved, a lot of welding. They can't get good workers. They need welders so badly and I wish highschools would push this kind of work a little bit more. They seem to think everyone is going to college. They aren't. Plus half the kids that go to college can't get a job. Maybe they should take some welding classes and become a certified welder and they could get a good paying job. They may have to get their hands dirty but dirty hands is what built this country and our boys wouldn't have to work so many hours.
I am so glad that we live close enough to our family that we can be a part of their lives. My husband worked for the U.S. Forest Service and to really get ahead you have to move a lot. As I have mentioned before, my family moved a lot when I was a child and I hated it. When we got married we lived close to a ranger station in the mountains for the first 10 years. And we all loved it. It was a great place to raise kids. Our water came from a creek and the kids grew up in the woods. When my husband had his first chance for a higher paying job, it was in Alaska but with 3 little ones we didn't want to be too far from a Doctor, so we didn't take it. I had said I would move once because I didn't want our kids having to change schools all the time like I did. So when the chance came for him to get an "upgrade" and it wasn't too far from our families and we found a home in the country we liked, we took it. And now we can be part of our kids, their kid's and their kids lives. We never made the money we could have if we had moved around the country. But money isn't everything as far as we ae concerned. We have learned to be pretty self reliant and that helps. So we are just one big happy family. The little one's get mixed up with so many grandpa and grandma's I am sure. But they will learn!
I had better get my work gear on and so some logging!
Have a great week and be back soon.

Water droplets covering plants on a sunny day is one of the most beautiful things that you can see in nature, but it doesn't mean that plants always have to be wet from their leaves to their roots. In fact, plants only absorb the water and nutrients that they need from their roots which are located underground. When water is just sitting on a plant, it's essentially wasted. If the water sits for too long on a plant, and can even damage it.
The plants in your garden require a different kind of watering than your lawn does. Common grasses in the United States are bred to resist different diseases and problems that can come from overwatering while other plants aren't. Vegetables and flowers are more sensitive to how they are watered and require moist soil to do their best. While it's not a big deal for plants to be wet sometimes, they shouldn't be continuously sprayed with water. This is why so many farmers and homeowners prefer an irrigation system for their gardens.
Benefits Of An Irrigation System
A properly designed irrigation system installation Annandale VA can bring a lot of benefits to your home and garden. There are many different designs that you can choose from in order to find one that best fits the needs of your garden and plants. There are some that snake through your garden in lines to water plants more efficiently if they are in rows. In other designs, they are made to irrigate for square foot gardening. This method allows you to organize your garden into equal areas. Some irrigation systems will even allow you to customize just how much water each section is given depending on the needs of the plants in that area.
A properly installed and used irrigation system can also help you waste less water. Since plants don't need to be watered head to toe, only watering the roots directly prevents water from being evaporated. Conserving water is important both for the environment and to meet certain regulations in areas that are prone to droughts. This can also help to save you money on your water bill throughout the summer.
Why You Shouldn't Water With A Sprinkler Or By Hand
When you water through a sprinkler or a hose, there's not a good way to control how much water is actually getting to your plants and their roots. While mother nature waters plants naturally, it doesn't ensure that your plants will get the moisture that they need. Plants like vegetables and flowers tend to have specific watering needs that are difficult to meet with a hose or sprinkler.
Overwatering can lead to a lot of problems. It makes plants more open to rot, disease, and mold. These issues can make produce unable to be eaten and all of your hard work that season will have been for nothing. Water droplets can also cause plants to burn as the sun's rays are magnified on those spots. Keep your watering consistent and correct with an irrigation system.

It welcomes professionals from every, and all, backgrounds of Pilates training. During these 3 days of intense and rigorous study common ground is established as we go through a daily mat class, discussions and a huge amount of very demanding repertoire. It is an enormous leap from the comprehensive teacher training that the students have all completed. Once in the fraternity of Pilates Ultimate, the Master and Master Reunion build upon the foundation of the Mentor and the jump is not as big." Rael Isacowitz Founder, BASI Pilates

It's the weekend, and I'm not working, and it's time for some R and R, in the form of meditative walking and snowdrops. When in need of a 'relaxing walk' me and Ronnie often turn to our 'default' walk, the shining shore. This is a relatively easy four mile walk from Thurstaston visitor centre, up Station Road, through St Bartholomew's churchyard, along the lanes into The Dungeon, and down through Heswall Fields onto the beach, and along the beach and up into Tinker's Dell back to the visitor centre.
We've done this walk in all seasons and know the route inside out, I know where the summer snowflakes will flower, I know where the honeysuckle will be, the bluebells, the samphire, I delight in the hedgerows, the yew trees, and more, and of course – the snowdrops. And I know the snowdrops will have arrived in the churchyard.
One of the highlights of this walk, the church.
And the ancient churchyard, where the snowdrops have indeed arrived.
We usually walk through the churchyard, observing the snowdrops or other wildflowers. But today we decide to sit here and have our lunch – which usually takes place further along the walk. We settle down to have lunch. As I gaze across the churchyard my eye is struck by that familiar 'monkey' shape…
Looks like a monkey!
Yes, it is!
Yes, that there!
Actually, it looks like two monkeys. In the binocular view I can clearly see female cones on the lower branches, and male cones on the upper. And how come I have never noticed this?!
We have lunch, observe the snowdrops and leave. There is a wall at the far end of the churchyard where I can get a better view.
Yes, and I can confirm that it is indeed two monkeys – one male, one female.
We carry on up the lane, to an even higher point, where we can look back to see the trees.
Had never considered binoculars as essential monkey hunting kit, but they were essential today.
As was Ronnie's new camera – and two monkey puzzle trees clearly visible.
We finish our walk – documented by Ronnie on his blog – and as we drive away we stop at the top of Station Road, to find that they are both visible here.
This is the shorter tree, the female tree – easily visible.
And this is the female tree (on the left) and the rounded shape of the male tree to the right of it.
So, two additions to the CH catalogue. And leaves me, once again, wondering how on earth I've never noticed these before? We've walked this walk in all seasons, so with bare trees like this, and I have simply not had my 'monkey eyes' in.
(More CH trees to follow very soon from Agent Philip.)

So here at the teams:
England Cook, Root, Trott, Pietersen, Bell, Bairstow, Prior, Broad, Swann, Finn, Anderson
Australia Watson, Rogers, Cowan, Clarke, Hughes, Smith, Haddin, Siddle, Pattinson, Starc, Agar
I may be proved totally wrong, but that Australian batting line up does not look that strong. They will rely heavily on Clarke
Lesley Garrett
A big first hour or so. There is cloud cover which will help the bowlers. England will need to bat well early on, though they could easily lose a couple of early wickets if the ball moves a fair amount. Testing times ahead.
Taxi for Monty? Sounds like a dry dust bowl.
The talking is over, let battle commence, and may the best team win.
Henry Blofeld. Oh Christ....
There are only two man-made objects that can be seen from space.
1. The Great Wall of China
2. Low Hill at Christmas
Great minds Paddy.
Not quite as bad as Harmison's wide.....
First mention of buses. Fuck off you fatuous cockend. Thank christ he has only twenty minute stints. Bring on Jim Maxwell and Michael Vaughan ASAP.
There are only two man-made objects that can be seen from space.
1. The Great Wall of China
2. Low Hill at Christmas
A maiden over! Get him off. He can't even describe the action, whats going on or what just went on.
Not a great first over from Pattinson. Maybe a little nervous.
Mitchell Starc looks a lot like Gareth Barry, never clocked that before.
Blofeld is like pulling teeth. Smashing my head into the keyboard...
There are only two man-made objects that can be seen from space.
1. The Great Wall of China
2. Low Hill at Christmas
Good boundary from Cook. It is good that he looks to be in a positive frame of mind.
Tuffers is ok, could he not just throw Blofeld over the balcony.
In the age of information, ignorance is a choice.
I absolutely loathe Henry Blofeld - being a fatuous windbag is one thing but being completely unable to accurately describe the action, score, bowler, batsman or anything is just bad broadcasting.
Thankfully I should only be reliant on radio commentary for a short period on Friday, otherwise I'm set fair for watching it.
Steady enough from Root, though he is being given plenty of sighters. How long before he goes after one of them?
Starc with a lively pace, getting bounce and movement. Had Cook in a bit of bother there.
Looks tricky to bat against the odd ball Australia are getting right, get through the first hour and should get easier.

text: so, as I mentioned before, I need to go to Cleveland to pick up my bar and freezer and move them to the new house that beststephi and I bought. I'm looking for volunteers to help. It'll be a pretty unenventful roadtrip. We'll need to get out of here by 9 to get to Cleveland and pick up the rental truck before the truck place closes. Then we'll be going over to my grandmother's house to load the bar and freezer up and driving it back here to unload. Might make a small side trip through Dormont to get my new hottub. I'd appreciate any able bodied help, and I will be providing beer as thanks. Anyone up for it?

Boys' Varsity Bowling
Lipscomb Academy has had a strong bowling program since it began in 2002. As a team and individual sport, over the years, we have had both teams and individuals go onto the TSSAA state tournament to compete with some of the best high school bowlers in the state of Tennessee. Bowling is a lifetime sport that you can take with you throughout adulthood.
"Being on the Lipscomb Academy bowling team has been one of the best experiences I have had in high school. We have all become best friends, and we encourage each other through everything. Being able to go so far last year with this team really helped us all bond and showed us that this year we can excel even further. I am so thankful for being on such an amazing team with friends I will keep for many years to come." High School Junior Bowler
Congratulations to both our boys' and girls' bowling teams for securing a spot in the TSSAA State Bowling Tournament on January 23-25, 2020, in Smyrna, Tennessee. The boys' team came in third place in the Region.

Don't get the wrong idea. Nothing is automatic. Offensive rebounding still takes a lot of hard, physical work. But by knowing where all the players are located in set plays and continuities, you can manufacture three-on-two, two on-one, and one-on-zero offensive rebounding advantages. And it's tough to beat a one-on-zero advantage isn't it? It takes careful study by a coach to take full advantage of these opportunities. Look at the position of all five offensive and all five defensive players on the blackboard and on the court.
These two zones take away top-of-the-key and wing shots but they are vulnerable in the middle and sometimes in the corner. The 1-3-1 zone (Diagram 1-5) covers the top of the key, the wings, the foul-line area, and the low-post area. However, it is vulnerable, especially in the corners and sometimes on top, should the wings drop too far. Diagram 1-5 A match-up zone employs five defensive players in the areas where the offense originates. If an offense shows a 1-3-1 attack, the defense immediately reacts and shows a 1-3-1 zone to match up with the five offensive players.
Quite often you can sneak a player to the weakside block or attack the zone from behind and throw over the defenders. Weakside defenders often have problems with match-up responsibilities. The airborne attacking player has the huge advantage of knowing precisely when and where the ball should be thrown. When zones pressure the ball or really sag to prevent interior passing, the skip or crosscourt pass becomes a potent weapon. A good skip pass can lead to either a jump shot or a strong penetration move.

I thought flirting was consent – it took me years to accept I'd been raped
This is a graphic description of the night a stranger took advantage of me
To a passing stranger we might have looked like any young couple stumbling out of the club and into the "throes of passion" down an alley. Maybe someone would have thought it sweet how he was leading me by the hand and steadying my falls.
Or perhaps if someone knew we were strangers they would shake their head at the "situation" I had "gotten myself into". I certainly spent years suffocated by that blame.
I was 16 when a man spent ten minutes trying to enter me in an alley at 2am, but it was another three years before I understood it was sexual assault. I knew the legalities and violence of rape but the concept of consent and my right to withdraw it at any time was foreign to me, and I believed because I had flirted with my rapist I was obligated to follow through and spread my legs when he wanted me to.
Even that word – "rapist" – was too heavy and defining for my situation. How could I put that on someone when I was to blame? He certainly didn't look like a rapist – he can't have been more than 20 – and he didn't act like one initially. He was good-looking and funny, not a violent thug who could leave me dead.
But somewhere in between Prince Charming and violent sex offenders are a group who take advantage of the grey area surrounding consent and the pressure put on young women to follow through and put out.
I didn't at any stage in the night want to have sex with him, and I certainly didn't want to be fucked in an alley by this stranger, but because I'd flirted with him and kissed him on the dancefloor I felt obliged to submit to his desire – after all, I'd been winding him up all night.
I first saw him on the street flyering for the nightclub we ended up in and probably winked at him. The club was dead, we were underage, so we spent our night going between the bar and the bathroom where we'd stashed our coats and money. I was the smallest so it was my role to slide under the locked stall door every time.
He met me on the dance floor and, thinking of the boy who had dumped me two days before, I let the booze loosen my tongue and lapped up the attention of this older guy. And yes, I did fantasise about going home with him. It was a fantasy that haunted me for months because it rationalised his behaviour as my choice. I thought my drunken desire must have been written all over my face waiting to be taken home – or, as it happened, just outside.
He wanted me to come home with him, I said I couldn't because I was staying at a friend's. He pushed me to find a solution, I felt safe because I knew there was no way I would end up in his bed.
When he went to buy some drinks he insisted I stay on the dance floor. He refused to let me taste his but urged me to finish mine without taking a sip from his own. Whatever was in that glass was too sweet for me so when he turned away I emptied most of it out.
To this day, I don't know if that drink was spiked. I didn't want to think it was for a long time, so I insisted the entire night, resulting in a sordid fuck, was directly because of my choices. I couldn't stand the thought of being powerless. When I did eventually accept I wasn't in control of what happened I felt guilty because I didn't know if I was drunk or drugged, and didn't want to victimise myself in comparison to other survivors of sexual assault who had been through much worse.
It didn't occur to me at any point that it wasn't my actions that resulted in my assault – it was his. It wasn't until I told an ex who demanded the boy's name because "I'll find him and kill him" I realised the perpetrator of my rape wasn't me. It wasn't until David cried and told me "you were a kid and that bastard took advantage of you" I realised I was excusing my attacker out of my own ruined self-worth.
Before, I had parroted the phrase "I know it isn't my fault" but felt guilty sticking the "victim" label on myself because I had flirted with and kissed him. I thought that flirting was consent, and whether or not that drink was spiked didn't matter because the outcome was something I brought on myself. I certainly didn't believe at 16 I had the right to change my mind at any stage – from that first wink I gave him my body to do as he pleased because I was scared to disappoint him.
Isn't that ridiculous? But it was a belief held by many of us when we were young because consent is an overlooked concept in young people's education. Brought up in a society in which female sexuality is packaged for male consumption and being exposed to the sexualisation and dehumanisation of the female form, you need to re-learn your body is yours alone to do with what you want – including withdrawing consent.
But with his hand on my chest keeping me balanced against the wall I felt my choices had been taken from me. As he struggled to insert his penis fully inside me muttering "you're so tight" I started hazily plotting my escape, each thrust bringing more clarity to the fact I didn't want to be there. But I couldn't find the word "stop" and instead prayed my slumped body language would betray I didn't want to continue.
It didn't. He turned me round and pushed me face first into the wall gripping onto my shoulders for leverage. It wasn't until he tried to enter me anally with no prior warning I squirmed and said "no".
He complained "But I'm still hard" and I became painfully aware of how much more sober, bigger and faster he was, so to get him out of my inner thighs I offered him a blowjob. He happily pushed me to my knees.
When he orgasmed he put one hand on the wall to steady himself and one hand on the back of my neck so I couldn't move away and said something about "swallowing". Despite everything it was that moment I felt most dirty, most used, most inhuman, and I spat his sperm onto the condom he had abandoned with venom.
He had his jeans around his ankles and I saw my way out. I bolted as he yelled at me, still leaning on the wall, and ran back to the main street where my worried friends were waiting outside the closed club. They were panicked and furious. All I could say was: "I think I lost my underwear."
In the morning I cried in the bathroom when I saw my vagina was swollen and raw. I felt deformed and ugly. I panicked that I had contracted some disease, unable to remember if I'd had sex with him or what had really happened.
I didn't have to wait long to find out. He called me the next morning to try and have phone sex (apparently I wrote my number on him earlier in the night) and laughed at me when I told him to leave me alone because "we fucked last night". I took a chance and said: "We didn't have full sex." He paused and agreed.
I was ecstatic when he agreed initially, but him conceding "we didn't have full sex" then hollowed me. I used it as a buffer between myself and the attack, and my pain became painful confusion as I didn't allow myself to feel hurt because I hadn't been raped by normal standards. I couldn't see a middle-ground between drunken fumble and violent rape, so I chose drunken fumble.
I dropped the bravado act of calling it a "one night stand" 18 months later when I saw him on the street. I had imagined for hours what I would do if I saw him again, ranging from breezing past to kicking his head in. In reality, I froze and felt even colder than I did that February night. I put my head down as I passed the bus stop he was waiting at, fighting the urge to run to my school gates.
It hit me then I hadn't wanted to have sex with him, but my instinct was still to blame myself entirely for letting it happen. And I didn't learn – even years into my active and happy sex life the concept of consent confused me and I caught myself having sex with men out of duty rather than desire. When I mention it to my female friends it's astonishing the number of heads that nod in agreement – we live in the assumption a woman gives her consent unless explicitly stated otherwise, and there's a thin line between that mode of thinking and the belief a woman's body is the right of those who desire her.
Of course, it's not a fight separated by gender. Despite being assaulted I can count numerous occasions I've pressured men into having sex with me despite them being tired or ill or nursing a broken collarbone (sorry, David) just because I was in the mood. But the second that mood translates into entitlement it is no longer a mutual, respectful act – it is a selfish, dehumanising demand.
It's not that we should exclaim "I consent" every time we do want to fuck, that would be bizarre. But we desperately need to educate and normalise refusing to give consent, and encourage exercising that right whenever necessary. Because sometimes you're just not in the fucking mood.
That night isn't something I think about often, and when I do it's not the assault that upsets me, but rather how I treated myself then and in the years after. I hate to think of the other young people feeling pressured into sex or not allowing themselves their pain because they didn't say no.
Maybe my drink wasn't spiked, maybe he was a good guy that wanted my number to take me out to dinner, maybe he just got carried away that night. What I finally realise is my position as a victim of sexual assault isn't dependent on his as a stereotypical rapist. Maybe he wouldn't even consider his behaviour rape, which shows how desperately important it is to teach each other and younger generations what consent is and how to respect it – and personally I will never again let "obligation" come between me and my consent.
We must open this discussion that victims' identities do not depend on the identity of their attacker. When our choice is removed our identity is taken from us as free people, and it is painful and difficult to piece your self back together when a part of it seems stolen. But when you hold your own image in their eyes you still labour under the same understanding that led you to feel you owed your body to that person. And if you cannot identify them as "rapist" how can you ever let yourself feel the pain of "victim"?
There's still a stigma of shame and "damaged goods" attached to sexual assault, reinforcing the notion a victim in some way consents to being attacked. Being assaulted and raped is nothing to be ashamed of which is why I'm waiving my anonymity. Your pain is your own just as your body is your own, and we should celebrate and reclaim both together, because in choosing not to feel ashamed we are no longer defined by our lack of consent.

If you have ever wanted to gain more knowledge about web design, then you are going to want to stop all that you are doing and check out these tips. Here, you will be given fantastic advice that is written by experts in the area. This way, you will gain all of the data needed in order to be a great web designer.
Keep the size of your web pages small. A lot of modern web pages are full of unnecessary elements, including huge images, Flash advertising, and lots of AJAX. Many people, especially those in rural areas and other countries with less-developed internet infrastructure, don't have high-speed Internet and will have to wait forever for a large page to load.
When you are designing a website, it is important to have proper spelling and grammar. In addition to running spell-check on your content, ask a friend or co-worker to proofread everything. Having good spelling and grammar on your website will help give it a professional feel and your visitor will be more likely to return.
For multimedia presentations, take advantage of the new HTML5 standard. Although HTML5 isn't quite as robust for animation and games as Flash, it has the advantage of working stably on mobile phone browsers, including those contained in Apple hardware. HTML5 is also quite a bit leaner than Flash, so load times will improve, as well.
Use JavaScript to include a custom font on your webpages. Libraries like Typekit and Google Web Fonts make it easy to include esoteric fonts on webpages, even if most visitors don't have those fonts on their computers. It works by embedding the font itself into JavaScript so that it can be decoded by the client on the fly.
Now that you have digested this great information, hopefully you have discovered something new about web design. This is just one article out of many possible ones, but the importance of web design has hopefully been stressed adequately in this one.
There is quite a bit of information that deals with web design and you need to get a good balance of knowledge to succeed.

Conventional vs Unconventional Loans
When talking about loans, the first step you can take is to learn about two basic classifications of home loans: conventional and unconventional. Each loan type has its advantages and disadvantages for the borrower. Let's take a look at conventional loans first.
What Are Conventional Loans?
Conventional loans are not secured by an established government program like the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), Department of Agriculture (USDA) or Department of Veterans' Affairs (VA). Instead, they're offered by private lenders and will generally follow more strict requirements compared to other loan types.
Conventional loans are also known as conforming loans because they "conform" to the rules set forth by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the two largest investors of conventional loans. They're ideal for borrowers who already have excellent credit. If the borrower is in good economic standing and can provide a large down payment, the process shouldn't be hard for them. And there are added benefits too, such as flexibility in terms of the property that you can purchase and the chance to significantly reduce your mortgage insurance.
There are two basic types of conventional loans: fixed-rate mortgages and adjustable rate mortgages.
Fixed rate mortgages have an interest rate that never changes. The monthly payment for your loan will always be the same.
An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) has an interest rate that varies throughout the life of the loan. After an initial "fixed-rate" period, the interest rate can adjust up or down, depending on the market. These adjustments happen periodically, often yearly or even monthly.
What are Unconventional Loans?
As stated before, conventional loans require a higher credit score, lower debt-to-income ratio and larger cash down payment. Sometimes, this won't fit a borrower's needs. That is where an unconventional loan comes into play.
In reference to its name, unconventional loans are different from most loans. They're backed by the government or secured through a bank or private lender, making them ideal for individuals with a lower income or less than perfect credit. The only real downside is that the loan limit is lower.
When we talk about unconventional loans, we often hear about FHA loans and VA loans.
FHA loans are insured by the Federal Housing Administration and require a small down payment.
VA loans are backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. They generally do not require a down payment, but veterans and active duty personnel who secure a VA loan do need to certify that they intend to personally occupy the property as a primary residence.

Spanish conservative Popular Party elects Pablo Casado as its new leader
Spain's conservative Popular Party has elected Pablo Casado as its new leader following the ousting of its previous leader, former Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy
Following the ousting of their previous leader, former Prime Minister Rajoy, in a public scandal, Spain's opposition Popular Party (PP) has elected Pablo Casado to be their new leader. The 37-year-old congressman promises to bring a fresh approach to party values and politics, and has already initiated preparations for Spain's elections next year.
Mr Casado has been described as holding right-wing political beliefs, among which are:
- Economic renewal for Spain can be achieved through improved productivity and lower taxes;
- A hardline stance must be taken to "reconquer" the Catalan people;
- The promotion of regional independence by political parties must be controlled and potentially illegalised;
- The European Union's policies on freedom of movement and border control require revisions;
- "[G]ender ideology" is "a social collectivism the centre-right must fight against"; and
- He is also critical of the right of abortion as well as euthanasia.
Casado previously served as the PP's chief of communications, and another focus of his will be reinvigorating party support in light of regional, municipal, and European elections in the coming year.
The PP had been embroiled in a corruption scandal, which culminated in the ousting of the former leader, Mariano Rajoy, who had been prime minister since 2011, in a no-confidence vote last month. The scandal centred on a secret campaign fund, which the party had run from 1999 to 2005. Mr Rajoy was replaced as Prime Minister following the vote on June 1st by Socialist leader Pedro Sánchez.
Mr Casado describes himself as a "liberal conservative". At an address in Madrid on Saturday, he urged delegates to "reconnect with society" on multiple levels of their localities, to "excite" voters, and to "start preparing a winning project for the next elections."

For immediate publication
Toronto - The Ontario Court of Appeal will issue its decision in Wynberg et al. v. Ontario, a case involving government funding of Intensive Behavioural Intervention services (IBI) for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs).
This is an appeal by the Attorney General of Ontario of the March 30, 2005 judgment of the Ontario Superior Court, finding that Ontario was in violation of the equality rights of the children because it failed to provide intervention programs, including in schools, for autistic children age six and older. The Court issued declarations to that effect and ordered Ontario to pay damages to the children for the cost of such services, past and future.
While the Ontario Human Rights Commission is not a party, the outcome of the Wynberg appeal will have an impact on the 250 plus cases involving 116 children with ASDs currently being litigated by the Commission before the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario. The cases before the courts are being decided under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms while the cases before the Tribunal were brought pursuant to the Ontario Human Rights Code. The cases at the Tribunal include complaints against the Ministries of Education, and Children & Youth Services, as well as a number of school boards, recently added by the Tribunal as respondents, and are known together as Arzem et al. v. Ontario.
Initially, the Commission referred these cases to the Tribunal on the basis of disability discrimination. The issues include the age-six cut-off, and the long waitlists for service. The complainants also alleged that they were subjected to age discrimination. However, under the section 10 definition of age in the Human Rights Code, only people over the age of 18 can bring an aged-based discrimination complaint. The Commission and the complainants took the position that the definition of age in the Code is unconstitutional, and should not be applied to the children in the Arzem cases. The Tribunal recently ruled that this definition of age violates the section 15 equality protections of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. This means that for the purposes of the Arzem proceedings, the Code's definition of age will not apply. The children complainants can now amend their pleadings to include the ground of age.
In January 2004, the Commission referred an unprecedented 121 autism-related complaints to the Tribunal for a hearing based on the restrictive eligibility criteria for funding support and long waiting lists for a government program. Additional complaints were subsequently filed and referred, and included issues of the role of the school boards and direct service versus direct funding.
The Government offers IBI as part of its Intensive Early Intervention Program (IEIP), but only to children between two and five years of age. The Superior Court in Wynberg found that the age cut off perpetuated and reinforced stereotypes that children with autism over age six were unredeemable, and had a profound impact on the children's human dignity.
Without financial support from the Government, some parents have had no other option but to handle the annual $50,000 costs for treatment on their own or have their children go without.
During the Commission's 2003 public consultation on access to education for students with disabilities, many parents and organizations raised the issues of age six cut-off and waiting lists for IBI and other therapy.
In March 2004, the Minister of Children and Youth Services announced funding for recruitment and retention of qualified IBI professionals, but was silent on the age 6 cut-off issue.
In April 2004, the Ombudsman of Ontario reported on the problem of waiting lists and service delays in the Ministry of Children and Youth Services' Intensive Early Intervention Program for Children with Autism.
Ontario human rights commissioners meet regularly throughout the year to review the results of investigations into complaints. Where the parties do not settle the complaint, and it appears that the procedure is appropriate and evidence warrants an inquiry, the Commission may refer the subject matter of the complaint to the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario for a hearing. The Tribunal is independent from the Commission. The Tribunal determines whether a right under the Ontario Human Rights Code has been infringed and decides upon an appropriate remedy. No final decision has been made in the Arzem et al. v. Ontario cases, and hearings are anticipated to continue.
