Here is the company's new show. We did some initial research in Autumn 2018 and are now heading into a further research period before we go into production next year. The dancers you see here are Thomasin Gulgec, Rita Carpinteiro, Manuela Sarcone and Omar Gorden. And will be looking for another 3-4 dancers for the production in 2018 which starts rehearsal in April of next year we hope with touring continuing through the Autumn. There will be some video clips from the first few days of rehearsal on Sweetshop Revolution's Facebook page.
Here is a description of the new show..
A dance theatre piece exploring how an imminent death may change the way we choose to live.
How are we living now? What would we change if we were given just months, weeks, days to live? I'm not Dead, I'm only Sleeping is a dance theatre production which explores the way we choose to live and die. It traverses feelings around death with the longing to live more fully in the moment. The audience follow the lives of four people
as they face death (both literal and metaphorical) within their relationships. This tender, provocative new work is about love, devotion, loss, memory and resolution. It talks to the importance of connection at times of adversity and how we shouldn't wait for death to reignite our relationship with life.
A key focus of the work, is how to use a clearer and more accessible narrative than is usual within dance theatre. We think that work is more deeply accessed if we can feel each person's journey through a tangible story. The work will use movement, text and other narrative devices such as voiceover, evoking the past and present, internal and external. Text will be used to frame scenes and also layered within an original sound score.
Dance theatre is particularly well-suited to this subject matter as the body is a living, breathing thing which can express huge life through physicality, as well as the 'inanimate'.

So many items in my news feed today. With every day it seems we are gaining momentum, the wind inexorably changing in our favour. It's been a long time coming, but I'm pretty convinced something's changed over the last few months. I think the Scout Moor Wind Farm expansion was a symbolic moment, in that it's the first time that I can remember a local authority approved a wind farm, only for the government to overrule it and reject all but one poor, solitary wind turbine (which is basically useless on its own, so it's like saying "Well I've eaten all the sweets, but hey you can have the wrapper!")
Now hold on, you may be thinking. The government overruled the community? Isn't that pure Watermelon? Haven't you been droning on about communities having the final say? Yes, I have. And had Rossendale Council truly and accurately reflected the grass roots will of the community, almost a thousand of whom signed a GENUINE petition, not an astroturf one, against the wind farm extension, I might have agreed. But there was something very, very off about the Council's approval. See the local paper cuttings below to get a glimpse of the financial black hole Rossendale has found itself in, following major financial irregularities. They were basically relying on the business rates from the wind farm, operated by the infamous Peel Energy group (registered at the same address as Peel Oil & Gas, would-be fracking company!)
It's not like they really need any more turbines in the fells above Rossendale. There's already the existing Scout Moor array, which has collectively harmed the mental health and wellbeing of millions of residents of Greater Manchester and South Lancashire. There's the disgusting Hyndburn Wind Farm, which needs razing to the ground. There's Hameldon Hill. There's Scar End. There's Coal Clough. There's Todmorden. There's Reaps Moss. And then there's Crook Hill. Plus there's far too many oversized single turbines looming over the towns of Rawtenstall and Bacup. I make that about 80 industrial wind turbines and a few dozen singletons within a radius of 5-10 miles. I know, because I monitor them constantly, keeping them under close surveillance to check for any monkey business. And Peel are upset they couldn't add 20 more?
If the turbine-infected state of Rossendale's countryside resembled the virus-ridden state of a hard drive, you'd lock down the computer, delete all the contents immediately, wipe it totally clean, zero all data, reformat it and patch it with the most stringent security protection available to man, to ensure you are never again struck by such lethal Trojans, the type of virus that nukes your computer by telling you just how much you need it to protect you from other (non-existent) viruses!
When a man from a wind company calls your council and tells you there's a problem with your ecosystem, treat it exactly the same way you'd treat a man with an Eastern European accent, claiming to work for Microsoft, saying he needs to take control of your computer.
Don't believe me? Follow the links and do your own research!
Just before handing over to the international news desk, I'll add a couple more paragraphs about the Banana/Watermelon – local/global – internal/external locus of control duality. Now I've articulated it, my very own hypothesis which I've formulated and shared with you in real time ("showing my working" by illustrating some of my real-life experiences that provided the empirical evidence to work with), it's time to look at what's going on in the headlines and see if my theory stacks up.
If there's one defining characteristic of the Banana mindset, it's that we err on the side of caution when it comes to changing anything: "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Building Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anyone is our central thesis, because zero building equals zero eco-destruction and zero carbon footprint. The very act of building itself is the antithesis to our worldview. However, in reality of course we need houses, we need roads, we need hospitals, we need schools, we need power stations and communication infrastructure….there's an awful lot we actually need to build. even though it'd be better for the environment not to. Our synthesis is therefore as little building as humanly possible, just the bare minimum to fulfil our essential needs. I might add that the most efficient computer networks are essentially Banana in principle – if it's not strictly necessary, then it shouldn't be part of the "build" (we even call our operating systems that, and we generally want them as tight and lean as possible).
The Banana Method is to live your life, do your thing, have fun, follow your own path, enjoy the world as it is. Only whenever something blocks the flow (cognitive dissonance) is it necessary to stop, assess the nature of the blockage (critical thinking) and come up with a possible explanation (a thesis). Test it out: if it doesn't help, try the opposite (the antithesis), and see if that gets you anywhere nearer to unblocking the flow. If not then grade and refine your thesis and antithesis until you end up with an explanation somewhere halfway between the two, or maybe nearer one but taking into account the valid points of the other (your synthesis).
When it comes to wind turbines, my thesis is that they severely get on my wick, possibly affecting me in more serious ways, and that building them is generally bad for the environment. The antithesis is that there's nothing wrong with the lovely turbines, we should build even more of them, and lunatic freaks like me should just shut up and stop accelerating Climageddon with our dangerously backward attachment to something as nebulous and unscientific as a "landscape". I ask you, dear reader, to test the thesis and antithesis above, and to formulate your own synthesis…
My follow-up thesis is that those who oppose wind farms generally have an internal locus of control, formulating their opinions first and foremost from personal experiences of eco-destruction, which prompts them to research and learn more about the worldwide wind scam. The logical outcome is a global network of grass roots activist campaigns that each work from the bottom up, with a few small victories that are used as springboards for further victories, culminating in new precedents being set, new laws being created to curb issues that have only come to light through personal experience (eg infrasonic noise pollution, shadow flicker, water poisoning, dead whales etc).
Ultimately this thesis concludes with wind scammers facing justice and being held accountable for their crimes, with long jail sentences for those who refuse to comply with the new laws that will come into force prohibiting the ownership of any permanently-based wind electricity generators (small portable ones are fine, if their owners pack them up when they're done using them).
The antithesis to the above is the Watermelon view, very kindly articulated in my previous entry by the Friends of the Earth, that climate change is a global issue that requires a supranational, top-down, technically-based approach. Even now, I'm crediting the Watermelon position with a level of intelligence and integrity that fellow Wind Warriors may not think it deserves. I'm crediting Watermelons with just as much good intention and intellectual prowess as us Cool Bananas. The only difference is that they have an external locus of control, their instinct is to defer to the experts, which I'm not saying is a bad trait (sometimes it is the right thing to do). But it does have its drawbacks.
You know when you get a new gadget, what's your first impulse? To play with it, to figure out how it works on your own, and to only refer to the manual if you can't work out how to do something? You must be a Banana! Or are you the type to follow the manual; you don't want to risk breaking anything, so best just trust the guys who made it and follow their instructions step-by-step? You must be a Watermelon!
In general I'd say we start off in life more Watermelon and end up more Banana. It even ties in with Maslow to a certain extent – self-actualised people who have managed to fulfil all their needs will clearly have a more internal locus of control than those lower down the Hierarchy, still struggling to satisfy their basic needs, still in need of assistance from higher authorities. What this leads me to believe is that, behind every Watermelon, there has to be a chain that eventually links to a Banana! And this is why, ultimately, being a Banana is the winning hand (in my opinion). Ceding your control to an outside party only means giving it to someone who has an internal locus of control, and more often than not what they really want won't be in your best interests.
(Of course, I might be being over-cynical, and maybe the wind energy "experts" really do have our best interests at heart. I keep asking them to reassure me that this is the case. Look out for the upcoming entry that will detail my long, protracted intellectual battle with the Planning Inspectorate!)
What upsets me most is the intellectual dishonesty of those "Kingpin" Bananas who willingly deceive millions of well-intentioned Watermelons into ceding their control. And they ARE Bananas-gone-rogue, these who capitalise on the wind scam, because they never have to suffer the consequences of their actions, They, not us, are the real NIMBYs! Get this, from "Lord Of The Manor Of Rochdale" (seriously!) Jeremy Dearden, speaking from his New Zealand home 11,500 miles away as he allowed eleven industrial turbines to be erected on Open Access Common Land in the South Pennines: "I have a pretty big view from my place here, and I don't know that I'd like to see a lot of windmills." And he has the chutzpah to call the "commoners" of Rochdale NIMBYs!
At the very core of every wind energy scheme lies a Banana-In-Disguise, who knows full well just how horrible the eco-destruction they are wreaking on the world really is. That's why they go to such lengths to cover it up. That's why they never respond like you or I would do to such damning accusations: humble, apologetic, remorseful, utterly horrified at how our well-meaning actions could cause such upset to so many people, and placing top priority on putting things right. That's what an honest Banana would do, when they realise how badly they've screwed up. But these dishonest Bananas, they know exactly what they're doing to the planet, and deep down they hate themselves for it.
My third thesis is that the internal/external locus of control transcends old-fashioned party lines, and is now the dominant factor in the culture wars. Looking across the Pond, I see two Bananas from totally opposite ends of the political spectrum – Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders – between them outflanking the Queen of Watermelonism, Mrs Hillary Clinton, with their sometimes interchangeable diatribes against a broken system run into the ground by shadowy global elites. Hillary, of course, is a walking, talking external locus of control, to the point where this trait probably mortally wounded her campaign. Vote Hillary, get…who exactly??? Her book, "What Happened?" proves the point emphatically! She seems to have refused point blank to have taken control of her election failure. Oh it wasn't her fault – it was the Russians. And the CIA. And Obama. And the Deplorables. And the Bernie Bros. Everyone but her.
Even Tony Blair's approach to politics can be seen as having been defined by an external locus of control. What was the most common criticism of Tony Blair? That he had no core values, no internal locus of control. Bush's poodle. Murdoch's poodle. Merkel's poodle. The bankers' poodle. The British public soon got the impression that a vote for Blair was a vote for someone else behind the scenes. Ed Miliband merely continued along the same path. Only Jeremy Corbyn has promised to "give back control" to the Labour party members, for better or worse.
Many Tories felt exactly the same under pro-EU Cameron, hence the rise of UKIP. As I said in the previous entry, I believe Theresa May is learning fast about the new realignment that has taken place, encapsulated so succinctly by the Brexit vote. It really has shone a spotlight on just how strongly Britain wishes to retain its internal locus of control.
The more I think about it and analyse it, the more I see in common between Trump and Sanders, Farage and Corbyn, versus Clinton and Bush, Blair and Cameron. Theresa May is somewhere in the middle, but moving in the right direction.
Certainly when it comes to understanding and defeating the core problem that inflicted wind turbines on us, the old left-right alignment seems unfit for purpose, a relic of a bygone, more simple era in which it was only the right that wanted to keep the plebs away from the moors, and only the left that wanted to protect them for everyone. How times change!
My loyalties lie with the localists of both the left and the right, people with an internal locus of control who agree that local communities should have the final say in what happens to the landscapes they know best. Even as an ardent Wind Warrior, if it was clear to me that the population of a community honestly and fairly wanted a wind farm, I would grudgingly respect their opinion, even though I'd do my darnedest to persuade them of the foolhardiness of their decision! Honesty, integrity and transparency go a long way, and maybe that's why people get really angry when a wind developer is seen to be trying to cheat, to game the system; as they did at Gorpley, the very first wind farm application I witnessed for myself. First impressions last!
With all this in mind, it's fascinating to cast our eyes over this latest piece of news, and to evaluate the reactions of the individuals involved.
Read it? OK, so what do you think of everyone's reasons for supporting and rejecting the wind farm? Which ones have given an "internal" reason for their decision, and which ones have given an "external" reason? How many of the councillors give "eco" reasons for their decision, and how many give financial reasons? Are there any opinions that you might disagree with, but respect as a valid opposing point of view? How would you go about trying to change each of the councillors' minds? Do you see any correlation between party and vote? Is there a left-wing or right-wing dimension to whether people support or oppose the wind farm?
Make your own minds up. Do some research into each of the councillors. Find out about them as people! Do they strike you as essentially Bananas or Watermelons?
I won't even begin to talk about the locus of control for Northern Ireland as a country…suffice to say it's been a psychological issue that has troubled the collective psyche for hundreds of years. I just find it interesting that the spectre of this horrendous wind farm in the beautiful Mourne Mountains seems to have split the politicians into surprising alliances, not strictly partly-aligned.
My final observation is that the crucial deciding vote against the wind farm is a sign of the times, nay an indication of the direction the wind is now blowing. Who knows, but I suspect a year or two ago that deciding vote might have swung the other way? I can't imagine many wind farms received a unanimous majority, I suspect most of those that did get approved barely scraped their way over the finishing line, with only the slenderest mathematical level of support. It feels good now that the boot is on the other foot!
Finally, more wind horrors from JUST ONE DAY of news.
This will no doubt be dismissed by some as "fake news" from the "Daily Fail"… don't shoot the messenger! Read the article, separate fact from fiction and do your own research. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-4924236/Noise-caused-building-wind-farms-KILLING-fish.html

WASHINGTON — Colombian rebel leader Ricardo Palmera was convicted Monday of helping hold three Americans hostage for years in jungle prison camps. He is the only person ever found responsible for their capture.
Palmera, who is better known by his nom de guerre, Simon Trinidad, is the most senior commander ever captured from Latin America's largest rebel group. He was extradited to the United States in 2004 and charged with hostage and terrorism charges.
Palmera is a senior member of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC. The force of about 12,000 fighters has battled the Colombian government for four decades and the U.S. government considers it a terrorist organization and a drug cartel.
While jurors found Palmera guilty of conspiracy to commit hostage-taking, they were split over whether to convict him of supporting terrorism. A federal judge sent them back to keep deliberating that charge and three counts of actual hostage-taking.
The three Americans — Marc Gonsalves, Thomas Howes and Keith Stansell — were civilian Pentagon contractors flying a surveillance mission over the Colombian jungle when their plane crashed in 2003 in a rebel stronghold. They were most recently seen in late April.
Palmera denied ever seeing the three men but acknowledged serving as a negotiator to try to force a prisoner swap. He stood expressionless as the jury foreman read the verdict.
Neither Palmera's attorney nor the Justice Department commented on the conviction because the jury continued to deliberate the other counts.
'Only make it worse'
The jury is split over whether Palmera actually held the three men hostage and whether that was in support of a terrorist organization. Though prosecutors repeatedly referred to the FARC rebels as terrorists, Palmera described the organization as a legitimate military organization and compared the dispute to the U.S. Civil War.
Gonsalves' mother, Jo Rosano, said she worried that the conviction would make it harder to win the hostages' release. She supports negotiating with the rebels for a prisoner exchange, something the government has refused.
"Most countries hate America. This will only make it worse," she said.
Palmera's first trial ended in November with a hung jury. The Justice Department immediately brought the charges again. He faces up to 30 years in prison and is awaiting trial on drug charges once this case is complete.

9 men barge into court complex, arrested
Haryana Police arrested nine men who forced their entry along with arms into a court complex premises at Jhajjar on Tuesday, apparently in search of the brother of a Delhi police constable who was murdered in 2008.india Updated: Aug 09, 2011 22:26 IST
Haryana Police arrested nine men who forced their entry along with arms into a court complex premises at Jhajjar on Tuesday, apparently in search of the brother of a Delhi police constable who was murdered in 2008.
A police department spokesman said it came to light that an Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) of Delhi police Karan Singh was murdered in 2008.
The case was being pursued by Wazir Singh, brother of Karan Singh who is a resident of village Badli in Delhi.
The case was slated for hearing today in the court and they had information that Wazir Singh would visit the court today. Therefore, they came to the court in four vehicles which they did not stop even when the parking contractor asked them to, he said.
The nine men arrested are Ashok Kumar of village Bhagwatipur in district Rohtak, Sombir of village Khirwali, Parmesh of Asthal Bohr, Amit of village Muradpur, Akash of Canal Colony, Rohtak, Sanjeet of Tilak Nagar, Rohtak, Kulbir alias Sanju of Jatwara, Deepak of village Bohr and Vinay of village Mundiakhera.
He said five more armed persons, taking advantage of the crowd in the court complex, escaped.
The arrested men told police that the five of their accomplices who escaped also had arms in their possession.
These five are Naresh alias Kala of village Bohr, Meenu of village Sasrauli, Sandeep of Rohtak, Pawan from Khirwali and Sonu hailing from village Chuliyana Pana Beri. They escaped in a car. Police are conducting raids to arrest them.
He said initial investigations have revealed they were associates of a wanted man Naresh alias Kala Bohria.
Police recovered from their possession a 315.bore rifle, a revolver and several live cartridges. A case under various sections of Indian Penal Code and Arms Act has been registered against the suspects and they were being investigated, the police department spokesman said here.
He said both the weapons recovered from the arrested persons were the licenced weapons of Ashok hailing from village Bhagwatipur in Rohtak.

We are greedy money lovers and we like easy ways of making money. We decided that having others help us predict what stocks to invest in would be a great idea!
What it does
Our app accepts a company name from the user. It then searches twitter for the first 100 tweets with the company name as an hashtag. It runs each of these tweets through Microsoft's Text Analytics Sentiment API, which assigns a score of 0 to 1, with 0 being negative sentiment and 1 being positive sentiment. Our app then finds the raw stock data of the company from Quandl API. It then compares the changes in the twitter sentiment data with the stock market data over the same period of time.
How we built it
We used Python to build the code that interacted with the Twitter API, and then with Microsoft Text Analytics API. We also used Python to pull the financial data from Quandi API. We used d3.js to display the data and wrote a webpage to host our app. We created the front end using html, css and Js.
Challenges we ran into
Mapping our data onto a graph was the hardest part for us. It took us a while to find a graphing software, and then it took even loger for us to make it auto generate our data. Collecting the data itself was not too bad.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
What we learned
We learned a lot about Microsoft's Machine Learning APIs and how to use them in cool ways. We learned how to graph our data using js frameworks and how to present our data in a slick format.
What's next for TweetStream
This app has huge amounts of potential. When we can expand the number of tweets we can track, from our hard limit of 100 (a rule set by Twitter API) to larger numbers, we believe that the data can become much more reliable and useful in terms of seeing correlations. We are also not limited to tweets, as we could expand our idea and move on to other sorts of social media data.

By the 1970s, the drive-in had become synonymous with two things: teenage sex in cars and Italian horror movies. Lord knows how many young women lost their virginity while Dario Argento movie Goblin-soundtrack cues echoed tinnily from the ominous gray speaker hanging on their half-opened car window. As some nubile victim got brutally murdered in splashy colors, American girls in backseats became women. And now, their children can enjoy the same film on DVD.
It's endlessly amusing to hear mainstream film critics complain about what we Italian film fans call "dream logic" and what they call "lazy incompetence." They don't understand it because, most likely, they're outside major cities for whom the "Tower of Babel" effect is unknown, so they don't appreciate the need for non-lingual story-telling devices, and they didn't see the film first at a drive-in while on acid or erection-enhancing stimulants purchased under the counter at a local pharmacy... If they only saw ZOMBIE or SUSPIRIA sober, they never really saw it at all... or saw too much of it, which might be worse. Cinema is not always meant to be studied under a magnifying glass, sometimes a movie needs to just be there, doing its own thing, providing you the scant light to pick the seeds out of your stash. An Italian horror movie wants to provide a nice canopy of gore and rock music for you to hide out under and get your freak on. It wants to freak you out regardless of whether or not you speak its language or missed the first 40 minutes. If you decide to look up and pay attention, WHAM! it's instantly ready to pounce on your nerves and never let up. In case you came in halfway through, as one did in continuous showing theaters like the Roxy, the credits repeated the name of the film "You have been watching SUSPIRIA." Meanwhile it's shocking enough to make sure your mom doesn't insist you take your little brother along, but with murders memorable enough to describe to them later. As Time Out Film Guide puts it, SUSPIRIA is what kids imagine scary movies to be when they're too young to see them.
From that standpoint, the strung together gross-outs of Lucio Fulci in films like ZOMBIE or THE BEYOND make total sense. There's an unspoken assumption in most drive-in fodder that viewers are going to miss at least 40% of what's onscreen (these films were made before VCRs and "pause" buttons); they're going to be off at the snack bar; looking for an elusive condom in the glove compartment, trying to get a chance to use it; or hanging with friends by the swing set under the screen, doing whippets and ripping one-hits and eating popcorn and getting ripped on copped 40s. Super loud rock scores function to drown out conversations from other cars, to reach you through steamy, cracked window panes and hormonal surges, cars coming in and out of parking spots next to you, or honking to each other, perverts creeping up to your windows and trying to peep through the passenger window and so much more. Lastly, the films need to work even for the kids watching the screen through binoculars from their bedroom windows uphill from the highway (as I used to).
That's all fine with Fulci and Argento. Their goal is to deliver a spookshow the way 2001 was a "Space Odyssey," or FANTASIA an animation extravaganza. No linear plot is needed when the theater space has become a show unto itself. Like dreams the films make no logical coherent sense but tap into unconscious drives so murky they can't be experienced another way. The connection I made earlier between the blood of the hymen in the car seat and the blood onscreen is not made lightly... there's a direct connection. Sex is terrifying, brutal and strange, a reminder of our own icky connection to biology, like having your computer invaded by some virus that takes it over--lust driving us into unconsciousness, the ultra-violence onscreen heightens our senses in the same way. Haven't we all killed and been killed, if not in past lives then in our inherited DNA, the genes of the marauders and usurpers, the conquerors and the conquered.
At the drive-in, the mere fact that a film could be scary at all was testament to its over-the-top power. The harder it tried to be logical the more boring and forgettable it became. You don't criticize your own nightmares for being nonsensical, especially if they're scary enough to wake you up, in a sweat, screaming, so don't do the same for these films, just let the room be dark, the drugs prescribed by a reliable physician and the volume loud enough to wake the dead. Hear them now rising from their graves at the sound of a newly opened womb? Like it or not, you remember that journey... you made it a thousand times and just forgot, like a dream. It makes no sense, but you know it's truer.
MORE ACIDEMIC WRITING on ITALIAN HORROR:
Cinebollically, Dario: FOUR FLIES ON GRAY VELVET
"Argento's films--even at their worst--are never "safe" and always rich in moral ambiguity: Good guys are hipster artists driven to risk their friends' lives in finding the killer, more out of perverse fascination than genuine empathy for the victims; the killers have their reasons--usually mental illness caused by brutal child abuse, and police hardly matter, except as deadpan mashers waiting around on the sidelines with their pages of red herring exposition."
"Why Don't You Call Your Insects?" PHENOMENA!
"It takes all the hot topics of the early 1980s/late 1970s and mashes em up real nice for a tasty b-movie stew: chimps avenging their slain masters (with a razor found in the park trash can), THE SWARM-style bug attacks, CARRIE-esque telekenetic revenge against bratty schoolmates (replete with wind blowing the hair back ala FIRESTARTER), deformed Jason-like freaks, flaming lakes, beheadings, maggots, POV killers shots with a knife on a pole ala PEEPING TOM, etc., all scenically filmed around the base of the Alps in what wheelchair bound Donald Pleasance dryly refers to as "the Transylvania of Switzerland."
Get in my Arachnid Black Belly: BLACK BELLY OF THE TARANTULA:
"It would all be just much ado about nothing, except for the aforementioned Morricone score, which provides a cacophonic counterpoint whenever it can. You don't even need a story when Ennio is at the top of his game like he is here: all crumbling electric guitars, atonal mashes of the keyboard, deep breathing and and wheezy organs, he catches and balances the woozy mise-en-scene the way a patient friend might help a stumbling drunk to his car."
An Argento Family Reunion: MOTHER OF TEARS
"Having Asia Argento in the film is a major key to unraveling the mystery of how to make it an enjoyable viewing experience. She's a mess in this movie, looking weary and bemusedly resigned, like the cool older sister you drag through the haunted house you've made in the basement rec room, — the sort with candles and blindfolds, where you make them stick their hands in cold spaghetti and tell them it's brains. We did that a lot in the 1970s, and Argento's family probably did too."

Shoe care starts with the actual purchase of a shoe. When choosing a particular shoe you should take your time as well as advice, as this could in turn enhance the overall experience. Not only do your feet but also your shoes suffer if the incorrect last is chosen. A shoe that is too tight or loose can cause the leather to stretch and fold, putting the shoe under excessive strain.
The choice of the leather upper should be made considering the intended usage of the shoe. Soft calf leather is elegant but sensitive to water and mechanical damage. Horse leather tends to crease and can swell through water drops and the owner tends to perspire more in such shoes. Stamped leather can lose its structure and two-color tone through over-polishing.
Again, you also need to choose the soles of you shoes carefully. Leather soles are breathable, but they do slip and are never totally waterproof. Rubber soles are waterproof and skid-resistant depending on the profile but can leave a residue behind, and are not breathable which can lead to excessive sweating, which lets the shoe wear out faster.
Feet and shoes need to get accustomed with each other. Good leather and the built-in cork layer located under the insole require time to adapt to the shape of your foot. Welted shoes can be quite hard and cause pressure in the beginning. They develop their comfort with time. Therefore it is recommended to wear new shoes in stages, starting with 1 hour a day, then 2, then half a day etc.
When putting on a shoe one should loosen the laces and use a shoehorn. Otherwise you risk damaging the counter and heel lining.
Shoes with a new leather sole should only be worn on dry days in the beginning, to avoid the leather from swelling and causing premature damage. The vegetable tanned leather can harden on the outer surface through pressure and moisture, giving it a natural shield against friction and moisture with time.
Do not wear the same pair of shoes for two consecutive days. Ideally you should swap the new shoes during the course of the day, allowing them to ideally rest twice as long as they were worn and aerate properly. Foot sweat is very aggressive and can cause the leather to crack.
Always store the shoes in a dry, aerated and non-humid area. For keeping your shoes in original shape, use an unvarnished and absorbent wooden shoetree. Primarily the shoetree should prevent the sole of the shoe from bending up and is not necessarily supposed to fill out the entire shoe. Under no circumstances should the shoe tree over stretch the shoe!
If the shoes are soaked or sweaty, let them dry out thoroughly before inserting the shoe tree. One can speed up the drying process by inserting newspaper into the shoe but never place your shoe under or in proximity of a heater.
The upper leather should be treated with shoe paste at least once a month. This lends itself not only to the shine but also to durability and smoothness of the leather. A horsehair brush or a cleaning cloth can be used to give your shoe a good polish. When the leather is too dry, marks can appear on the surface after applying shoe paste. To avoid this it is recommended to lightly moisten the leather before applying the shoe paste. Apply sparingly and distribute it immediately over the entire area before the paste is absorbed by the leather. Excessive amounts of shoe paste can cause the leather to become crusted and therefore prevent it from breathing.
It is not recommended to use high-gloss care products on a good leather shoe as they usually contain aggressive solvents that will affect the leather. By using such products the leather is covered with a varnish that cannot be removed once applied.
Dirty or crusted shoes can be cleaned with a dirt brush, if necessary with water and saddle soap. Neglect may cause long-term damage to the leather.
Mechanical damage to the exterior of elegant leather shoes is not a material defect. Small damages can be treated with shoe paste. One must not fret over the visible wear of a shoe, as long as it's cleaned thoroughly.
Leather soles and seams should occasionally be treated with leather grease or dubbing. This keeps them water-resistant and smooth. Please note that the freshly applied leather grease or dubbing may leave a residue on the floor.
Soles, heels and wear parts, which have been subjected to stress, are parts of the shoes that should be replaced every two to three years. A craftsman can separate the old sole from the seam of the welted shoe and replace it with a new sole, making it as good as new.
Improper repairs should be avoided, in particular with welted shoes whose functionality can be influenced. In any case: if inappropriate materials and other than original lasts were to be used, the actual shape of the shoe could seriously be altered. This could then cause extreme folds and cracks in the leather.

You remember that line "All I ever needed to know about life I learned in kindergarten"? I'd like to coin a similar one:
"All I ever needed to know about teaching I learned from Edmodo."
But seriously, being a part of the Edmodo community has been better than all my PD hours combined in helping me become the teacher I want to be for my students. In addition to using technology in innovative ways, I've learned about:
- Project based learning (PBL)
- How to add gaming elements to instruction
- What the benefits are to "flipping" my classroom
- And how it's possible to really differentiate instruction
By participating in the Edmodo PLN (Professional Learning Network), one gets this strange positive feeling that education might actually be headed in a good direction. Weird, right? I've used Edmodo for a full two years now and I still find it hard to believe that there is a place that offers both an incredible community for educators while simultaneously providing an AMAZING platform for student learning. I've tried other sites that aim at student collaboration, but they all appear so painfully "educational" that even I lose interest quickly.
Not so with Edmodo. My kids love it. It's almost like our class mascot! I've caught students on weekends commenting on posts while I've been grading their work through the site. I mean, seriously—something's up when kids are heading to the site I introduced in class when Facebook is just as readily available.
So, Edmodo is fun. But here's why. There are other sites that have a similar concept, but this is what sets Edmodo apart from all the others: you can do a-n-y-t-h-i-n-g. Anything. Really! All the things you want to do with your students electronically can be done on Edmodo. (And btw—it's FREE, which certainly contributes to my enthusiasm.) To see what I mean, take a look-see at this video. I'll walk you through my Edmodo-routine and give you a run-down on its possibilities in the classroom. You can also view my own Edmodo page here.
The point I'm making is that Edmodo is a one-stop-shop for both your lessons and all the web tools that go with them. And you may have noticed that Mentormob shows up more than once among the tools I incorporate—and that's because it's awesome. Mentormob single-handedly gave me practical tools to flip my classes in a way that works for ESL (English as a Second Language) students. The change was instantaneous when I started providing instructions to web tools through the site and displaying my reading assignments independently, via playlists, rather than through direct, whole class instruction.
Animoto is another tool I use that allows me to create videos that MentorMob and Edmodo then help me organize and share. Here's how you do it:
I would provide the link to one of my reading playlists as well, but they contain copyrighted material so I have to set them as "private" for my students only. But to give you an idea of what they look like:
- I start with a Prezi that provides notes for comprehension focus.
- Next I include front loaded vocabulary—I use vocabulary videos that my students created prior to reading through Animoto, and then I link them all through the blog post that makes the second step of the playlist.
- From there on in the playlist, each page of the reading passage is paired with accompanying audio. I alternate each page of reading with a Mentormob quiz to help keep the kids focused and on the right track.
And that's it! The playlist comes out lookin' good and my students have actually read it. I'm crying a little just thinking about it. And because the site is interactive and engaging, my students are able to get so much more out of reading alone than when I was trying to manage the whole thing myself (if you've tried to get a room full of teenagers to sit quietly and read along with a story in a language that's unfamiliar to them, you'll understand why this is a big deal).
Now they can now take care of themselves during a task that previously sent me pill-popping, and I can actually teach. I can also differentiate my room based on students' needs in English and talk with them about what they read. It's easier now for me to teach students the English they need to communicate their feelings, and most importantly, I can enjoy my job. What I'm describing here, really, is the benefits of a flipped classroom; and for me, the flip was possible with the help of Mentormob and Edmodo.
Thanks, guys!

Leading the way in motor technology
Newcastle University has been named a key player in a £16 million programme to investigate the benefits of high-speed motors for hybrid and electric vehicles.Building on the research already being carried out at Newcastle to develop novel, sustainable and highly efficient motors for EVs, this new project will see the new motors being fitted into Jaguar Land Rover Evoque's within the next two years.
Unlike the current EV motors which rely on rare earth metals such as Neodymium and Dysprosium, the new motors will replace these rare earth metals with new designs based on the most common of materials, iron.
Iron is not only much cheaper and less damaging to the environment, but also much more widely available – a key factor if we are to meet the expected rise in demand for hybrid and electric vehicles. The motors will also replace expensive and heavy copper with aluminium, considerably reducing the weight of the electric motor whilst increasing its longer term recyclability.
Funded by the Technology Strategy Board, the £16.3m 'Evoque_e' Project was announced this week at the Low Carbon Vehicle Event 2013. Being led by Jaguar Land Rover, the consortium consists of eight industry partners and three universities including Newcastle.
James Widmer, who is leading the Newcastle part of the project, said: "This project offers a real opportunity to drive forward the efficiency and performance of electric vehicles and ultimately take us closer to creating a more sustainable transport system for the future.
"And this is not just a pipe dream – what this collaboration offers is an opportunity to turn Newcastle's leading research into a real-life solution for the cars of the future. Within two years our motors along with other, novel technologies, will be showcased on our roads.
"It's an excellent opportunity and we are delighted to be part of this new and unique collaboration."
Starting in October 2013, the Evoque_e team will design, develop and build three research vehicles showcasing state-of-the-art, next-generation powertrain concepts for a mild hybrid electric vehicle, hybrid electric vehicle and a full Battery Electric Vehicle.
The partners include Jaguar Land Rover, Zytek Automotive, GKN Driveline, Motor Design Limited, AVL, Drive System Design, Williams Advanced Engineering, Delta Motorsport, Tata Steel, Newcastle, Cranfield and Bristol universities.
The aim is to tackle technology areas identified by industry, through the Automotive Council, as the most strategically important challenges facing the sector today.
Commenting on the new project, Business Minister, Michael Fallon, said: "This is a groundbreaking project that brings together major strengths in automotive businesses, innovative SMEs and leading universities.
"It demonstrates the power of the collaborative approach encouraged by the Technology Strategy Board, and the importance of supporting innovative R&D to help bring about future manufacturing and growth.
"As we set out in our automotive industrial strategy, there are huge opportunities for us from being a world-leader in new technologies."
The new motors:
Rare earth metals are a range of minerals which have become increasingly important in the delivery of new and sustainable technologies ranging from electric vehicles to solar panels.
However their success in these applications has raised worldwide concern about the supply and environmental impact of mining these materials.
The market for electric cars and commercial vehicles is expected to grow five fold over the next decade from less than 2 million EV's sold in 2010 to an estimated 49 million by 2020. But this $180 billion-industry will be held back unless cheaper alternatives can be found for the metals currently used in the construction of their electric motors.
"The pressure on supplies of rare-earth metals coupled with rising demand for this technology means the pressure is on to find an alternative," explains Mr Widmer, based in the Centre for Advanced Electrical Drives at Newcastle University.
"In addition to this, extracting these minerals can be incredibly destructive to the environment. If we are to pursue electric and hybrid vehicles as a truly greener option then we need to look not only at the fuel but also the materials we are using to develop the various components."
The research is part of the University's on-going commitment to tackle one of the great societal challenges of our age – Sustainability – and this latest project will see the new-generation motors fitted in cars within the next two years.
Containing no expensive and scarce rare earth magnet materials and replacing copper with cheaper and more widely available aluminium, the new motor is capable of providing tractive power and acting as a generator in a cost competitive and suitable for high volume manufacture package.
This project will go beyond the current state of the art in low carbon vehicle drivetrains, developing a suite of technologies which will allow significant cost reductions in the electric vehicle drivetrain whilst simultaneously improving its performance.

Reinsurers: heed industry thinktank as droughts, floods, hurricanes and wildfires escalate
After a year of disasters (documented in detail here), the reinsurance industry travelled to Monte Carlo for its annual get together (8-14 September).
Hurricane Irma was accompanied last year by Hurricanes Harvey and Maria, along with earthquakes in Mexico and wildfires in California. In all, there was $136bn of insured losses from natural and man-made catastrophes in 2017 according to Swiss Re, the third highest on record.
A report, "Climate Change and the Insurance Industry: Taking Action as Risk Managers and Investors", was written by Maryam Golnaraghi, Director, Extreme Events and Climate Risk research programme for The Geneva Association, which is described as the industry's leading thinktank.
It notes that following the adoption of the Paris Agreement, there has been a burst of initiatives and activities across a wide range of stakeholders to support the transition to a low-carbon economy (mitigation side).
Latest developments include:
- growing but highly fragmented and in some cases conflicting climate policy and regulatory frameworks at national to local levels and across regions;
- innovation in clean and green technologies, with some gaining market share;
- rising interest in green financing, with efforts to reduce barriers to green investment on the part of shareholders, asset managers, standard-setting bodies and rating agencies, and growing demand for low-carbon commodities.
As well as building financial resilience to extreme events and other physical risks by providing risk information, improving distribution channels and payout mechanisms, Ms Golnaraghi reports that the insurance industry is supporting the transition to a low-carbon economy through its underwriting business, investment strategies and active reduction of its carbon footprint.
There is no reference to this support in the FT's report of the insurance industry's response to escalating disasters, summarised as:
- 'a wave of merger and acquisition activity' as insurers and reinsurers reconsider their business models,
- some are 'bulking up',
- others have decided to get out.
Reinsurance companies should call for immediate greenhouse gas mitigation efforts, as climate change continues to progress and extreme weather is becoming more frequent and dangerous and heed the Environmental Defense Fund warning that if these are not ramped up, last year's unprecedented disasters may soon become the norm.

Young Ernie Wilkinson Inspires 'B' Team To Victory
The Ernie Wilkinson-inspired Bully Boys scored their 5th successive win in Division 4 earlier this evening, this time by 2.5 - 1.5 against Newcastle 'E'. They now top the table with 10 points from 5 matches and are 3 points clear of Meir 'B', their nearest rival, and also have a match in hand. Young Ernie was the first to finish on board 4 and then sat there looking smug whilst his team mates tried to emulate him. Rob West was displaying suicidal tendencies in his game on board 3 and eventually succumbed to a very strong attack, leaving the match poised at 1 - 1. However, an extremely well played endgame from Ray Hyde on board 1 put us 2 - 1 up and Derek finished the job by agreeing a draw on board 2 to give us the match.

There is zero reason to not expect this team to get to the Super Bowl. Nothing stands in their way.
While Mack is the most underrated RB in the NFL, A Top-7 Back in production (when healthy), it's always good to have someone share the load while helping to take the pressure off of Luck by respecting the run.
From Rotoworld with Rotoworld comments:
Colts signed RB D'Onta Foreman, formerly of the Texans.
Backup RB Keith Ford was waived in a corresponding move. Recently waived by the Texans himself, Foreman lands in a loaded backfield as the likely early-down backup to Marlon Mack. Nyheim Hines, Jordan Wilkins, and Jonathan Williams round out the rest of the roster, with Spencer Ware likely seeking out an injury settlement to play elsewhere. It's worth noting longtime beat reporter John McClain of the Houston Chronicle believes the Texans waived Foreman because they were unsatisfied with his "work habits" — something that obviously won't stand in Indy. If Mack is dealt another season of nagging ailments, though, it's Foreman who'll be a name to monitor as the power-running successor (despite his ongoing Achilles recovery). In the meantime, Mack remains an unequivocal RB2 across all formats.

Eye contact.
Shy cautious checking
Each other out.
Checking for danger,
For interest.
We're very still.
I offer; you gaze.
When you move
It is sudden.
Fluttering, hovering close.
I do not breathe.
You do not stay.
We try again,
The same dance.
I offer, you assess.
This time you move in
Bold, certain, landing.
Into my waiting hand.
Onto my skin.
Eye contact.
Still cautious, checking,
Your feet so small,
Your tiny weight,
A miracle on my fingers.
I do not breathe,
And when you
Have taken grain enough,
You fly away.

We all know that we lead busy lives with busy schedules. If you only have one agricultural tank truck for the job, you're not going to want to give it up to get it refurbished. There are too many things to do and refurbishment has to wait. However, you know you need to get your old run-down truck refurbished eventually. When is the best time to refurbish your tank truck? Right now!
Winter is one of the best times to get your truck refurbished because you know that you won't need it for a few months. You're able to put aside your truck and gain improvements. These include being outfitted with new pumps (Gorman Rupp, Defco, MP Pumps, etc.). You could also go for full sump with 3″ or 4″ outlets, sight gauges, double compartment tanks, fuel transfer tank, toolboxes, hose trays, or flood lights. Additionally, every used refurbished Osco Certified chassis receives new paint on the cab and chassis. Plus, you'll get new tires, new brakes, new powertrain fluids and filters. Lastly a new bumper, a 120 point inspection, road testing, and DOT inspection at an independent truck service center.
Not only does your tank truck get a day off once we reach the winter season, but you also do. Plus, we do too! This means that we have more time to really get in depth with you and discuss your wants and needs, make changes, do unique custom design, and go past refurbishment and work on a new custom tank truck that meets your needs. While this is possible at any time of the year, we have the most time to do in-depth projects in the winter season.
Lastly, you won't be rushed to get things done when you need to be focused on more important things in the early spring. Spring can be a very busy time on a farm, and you want your equipment up and running right away. Getting things done over the winter season allows you to check one thing off of our list. It also gives you times to test out your new ride and work out any kinks or issues that you may have with it. Plus, it assures that your tank truck isn't sitting under a snowdrift all winter so that you'll have an easier time getting it up and running in the spring.
At Osco Tank & Truck Sales, we are ready to refurbish your tank truck at any time of the year. We're happy to accommodate your schedule, and we want to work with you to customize your "new" truck. Whether you're looking for a simple refresh or you want a full overhaul, the experts at Osco Tank & Truck Sales will get it done right the first time. Contact us today for more information!

Has your card been lost or stolen? We can help to provide you with a replacement.
If you are a British national planning to visit, live or work in Croatia, it's important that you are aware of the regulations surrounding the receipt of healthcare. The information given below should provide the guidance you need to:
– Make sure you've got the correct paperwork and cover in place before you leave the UK.
– Ensure you're aware of how the system operates in Croatia.
– Are aware of what's covered and what's not.
– Collect all the relevant information and evidence needed to make a successful claim for healthcare costs.
– Have the correct cover in place if you are enjoying an extended stay in Croatia.
What will happen to healthcare arrangements for UK nationals in Croatia once the UK leaves the EU?
Note that the information given below applies to UK residents until such as time as the UK leaves the EU. Once the UK has left the EU, it may well be the case that different regulations apply. Remember that any arrangements you make will have to be reviewed once a definitive timetable for leaving the EU has been established.
Healthcare in Croatia
Although standards of healthcare in Croatia are generally considered to be very good, the processes, treatments and procedures you experience in a Croatian medical setting may be very different from medical care in the UK. If you need any form of medical care and don't want to pay for the total cost yourself, it's important to use a facility or care provider that has a contract with the Croatian Health Insurance Fund (CHIF). CHIF contracted organisations offer public sector healthcare, which is provided for free at point of delivery or at a significantly reduced cost for UK nationals visiting Croatia provided they have a valid EHIC (European Health Insurance Card).
If a third party makes arrangements for your medical treatment (for example a tour guide or hotel employee), it's important to check that they have arranged for you to visit a CHIF contracted hospital. If you visit a private hospital or healthcare provider, you will have to pay the total cost of care yourself, or from travel insurance if you have it.
Planning to Visit Croatia – what health cover do you need?
The EHIC
The EHIC shows that you are usually entitled to free healthcare in Croatia, under Europe-wide agreements. Note that you must show your EHIC card to the hospital administration so that they are able to complete the necessary paperwork.
It's also important to be aware of the fact that if you receive care from a non-CHIF contracted care provider, you will need to pay for it: it will not be covered by your EHIC card.
If you discover that you have lost your EHIC card, or haven't applied for one, you can obtain a Provisional Replacement Certificate (PRC) by calling the Overseas Healthcare Service (OHS). A PRC shows that you are eligible for an EHIC, even if you don't have it with you. The OHS will send a copy of the PRC to the hospital where you are receiving treatment, ensuring that you're not charged for the care you receive.
Exemptions from EHIC cover
Some conditions and medical circumstances aren't covered by EHIC. These can often include:
– Medical treatment on a cruise ship (including if you are taken ill whilst on a stop-off in Croatia).
– Mountain rescue.
– Treatment obtained at a private medical facility.
– Repatriation to the UK.
Additional Health Insurance is Often Useful for a Visit to Croatia
Because your EHIC doesn't cover you for every health eventuality, it may well be worth obtaining additional healthcare cover through travel insurance. Travel insurance can be tailored to meet your specific requirements. It can include cover for pre-existing health conditions, as well as cover for private care, repatriation and any other costs associated with the treatment and care you receive whilst in Croatia.
What medical services in Croatia are covered by EHIC?
Ambulance transport is FREE for all
If you require an ambulance, you do not need to have an EHIC or private care. The emergency services number in Croatia is 112. 112 can be answered in English if required.
This number is FREE from mobiles and landlines. You will need to give the dispatcher much the same information as you would in the UK:
– details of the patient(s), including age, sex, symptoms.
– your name.
– details of the incident which has lead to the injuries or symptoms.
– what type of emergency care you need (police, ambulance, fire service etc).
Hospital Care
Emergency hospital care at a CHIF-contracted facility is free if you have an EHIC card, or are eligible for one and can obtain a PRC from the OHS. If calling from outside the UK, the number for the OHS is +44 191 218 1999.
If you have a non-urgent medical problem, you will need to be referred to the hospital by a doctor, in the same way as you would in the UK. In most cases, your EHIC will cover you for most of the cost of your treatment. You will, however, need to pay a co-payment towards the cost of your hospital stay and care. At the time of writing, for each night in hospital you will need to pay a co-payment of HRK100 (around £11.65), up to a maximum of HRK2000 (around £233).
Dental Care
The costs of dental care are mostly covered by EHIC, provided the dentist is contracted with the CHIF. You will normally need to play a small co-payment of around HRK10. This is non-refundable. Check what dental work is covered through EHIC and which you will need to claim on your travel insurance, to avoid having work done which isn't covered in some way.
Dealing with a pre-existing condition in Croatia
Generally, you should make sure that you have appropriate travel insurance in place to supplement EHIC cover if necessary. EHIC usually covers you for medical care should a pre-existing condition worsen or require emergency care (for example suffering a severe hypo if you are a Type 1 diabetic, or the flare-up of a heart condition).
If you need to take medication with you to keep a pre-existing condition stable, you may need specific authorisation, depending on its nature. If in doubt, check with your existing healthcare provider before you go or consult the government's information on carrying controlled substances (https://www.gov.uk/travelling-controlled-drugs). Just like any other country, Croatia has its own regulations regarding the use of controlled substances. Make sure that you comply with these if you are visiting the country and taking drugs with you.
What about medical care if I am working in Croatia?
If working in Croatia for less than three months
If you are working in Croatia for less than three months, you will usually be able to have the costs of any medical care that you need covered by EHIC. Remember that EHIC only covers CHIF-contracted facilities. It may be the case that your employer also offers medical cover as part of your benefits package: this may entitle you to treatment at a private medical facility. Additionally, or as an alternative, you may wish to take out appropriate insurance, or your employer might pay your insurance costs for you.
A key consideration for people in a profession where there is a significant risk of injury (for example construction), is knowing who will pay for medical care should an accident occur which is not the fault of the individual in question. Although EHIC covers emergency cover, it doesn't cover repatriation, or, in some cases, rescue. Before commencing employment in Croatia, make sure you're clear about who is liable for picking up your medical and ancillary costs should a work-related accident occur.
If working in Croatia for more than three months
After three months, individuals working in Croatia need to start paying into the system in order to continue to have free access to public healthcare. Workers from the UK will need to pay into the CHIF in the same way as Croatian nationals. They will then be entitled to the same healthcare benefits as Croatian nationals. If you want to access private healthcare, or require healthcare services which are beyond the remit of the public sector, CHIF-funded care, then you will need to make private insurance arrangements or be covered by some form of corporate insurance.
If you are employed by a Croatian employer, they should pay your health insurance contribution. If you are self-employed, or contracted, then you would need to pay the health insurance contribution yourself. The current amounts required for health insurance through CHIF are an initial enrollment payment of HRK5000 (about £582), followed by monthly contributions of HRK450 (about £52).
What about healthcare if I am living in Croatia?
Whether you are working or not, after three months of living in Croatia you will need to pay into the CHIF in order to receive CHIF-funded state healthcare. If you have been in Croatia for less than three months, you can usually use your EHIC to obtain the treatment that you need. The requirement to pay into CHIF after three months is irrespective of immigration status, although after three months you will usually require some form of visa if you intend to stay longer.
What about healthcare if I am travelling in Croatia?
For people who are travelling around Croatia for less than three months, a combination of EHIC and travel insurance is usually sufficient to ensure that they have adequate health cover. After three months, travellers need to start paying CHIF contributions in order to continue to access healthcare at CHIF-contracted hospitals and clinics which is free at point of delivery.
What is the healthcare actually like in Croatia?
If you have never used healthcare in Croatia before, you will find it quite different from the healthcare supplied in the UK. Take a look at some of the differences you may find:
– When you go to a doctor for a consultation, if further diagnostic testing is required or an additional consultation, you will be issued with documentation to take with you to the place where the testing will be carried out. This document, called an "uputnica" is presented where you are to be tested and is basically an order for the test to be done. It is very important not to lose this paperwork, or the test can't be carried out.
– As a UK national, make sure that you have your passport and EHIC card available at all times. Again, you may be asked for one or both of these key pieces of documentation before tests or similar procedures are carried out.
– If you live or work in Croatia for longer than three months and pay into the CHIF for healthcare, remember that not everything is covered through that insurance. Whilst the basic CHIF medical insurance is mandatory, you may also choose to purchase the optional additional insurance. Costing HRK70 (around £8) a month, the additional insurance gives you unlimited access to all state-provided healthcare. This means that you avoid the obligatory, set co-payments which are required for services such as dental care, hospital stays, a consultation with a doctor and similar provision.
– Note that there are certain procedures which are not covered within the state healthcare system in Croatia. Cosmetic surgery, for example, isn't covered through CHIF insurance.
– If you are concerned about the quality of Croatian healthcare, don't be! In 2018, the Lancet reported the results of a survey which showed that Croatia ranked 30th out of 100 countries in terms of the quality of the healthcare provided: one rank below the US. See here for more information. Croatian healthcare is generally reckoned to be extremely good, particularly in major cities.
– The only potential area of weakness in the Croatian healthcare system relates to the treatment of mental health problems. People visiting from the UK who require on-going mental health care may find it difficult to access English-speaking therapists and psychiatrists. In addition, treatment approaches to mental health issues are different in Croatia to those found in the UK.

Do I need to purchase a WordPress subscription first?Adam updated 2 years, 7 months ago 2 Members · 2 Posts

Hi Adam,
I need to build a business / informational website.
I have an account with Go Daddy for domain and website creation. I was not making it very far with trying to build the web site myself with their system. I got their folks to help create a website with a more expensive plan, but still not really sure that I like the web site they are building.
I see WordPress on their site and they use Beaver Builder for the site they are creating for me.
After watching a few of your tutorials, I thought the Elementor Pro option may be better for me. Thinking that may provide what I need to create a good website. I would like to have control of the web site and make updates myself instead of paying the extra amount annually with Go Daddy.
Just not sure how to get that plugin imported to the Go Daddy site and if that is possible. Thinking I may need to go straight to a WordPress subscription in order to utilize Elementor Pro. Is that correct?
AdamAdministratorFeb 27, 2018 at 11:36 am
While I am not particularly fond of GoDaddy and their hosting services, you can certainly use Elementor instead of Beaver Builder. You don't need a WordPress subscription because WordPress is free.

Le Beaujolais
PUBLISHED: 10:18 15 August 2013 | UPDATED: 15:16 20 May 2015
Le Beaujolais, Cirencester's only French restaurant, has gained a reputation over the past three years since its opening for:
Superb classic French Food
Excellent Service
True French Atmosphere
Value for Money
The Castle Street, Cirencester brasserie, is owned by chef Eric Lepine and front of house manager, Kiean Glynn.
They met at a hotel resort in the French Alps where Kiean was manager, and forged a friendship which has brought them together in many businesses since...though this is their first joint ownership.
To Kiean and Eric this is the begining of the story...for they plan to develop their relationships across the piste...families, couples,businesses, very different theatrica/musical style occasions.
The key to what they do is fresh produce; with some brought overnight from France, along with supplementary food from Gloucestershire and the West Country.
Le Beaujolais has a French club, with almost 200 members and meets monthly.
It stages special occasions, such as the annual Beaujolais Nouvea race, fun occasions with Tweedy the clown, England v France food challenge...Les Miserable style suppers.
The restaurant is on two floors - upstairs is ideal for business meetings and celebratory dinners; downstairs, quiet, more intimate.
Le Beaujolais has both a la carte and table d'hote menus, with two course lunches for senior citizens Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.
Le Beaujolais is what its customers want it to be - as long as it is French in style..and they leave, saying "We'll be back soon" : The ultimate accolade!
