'Science Made Stupid: How to Discomprehend the World Around Us' is a book written and illustrated by Tom Weller in 1985. The winner of the 1986 Hugo Award for Best Non-Fiction Book, it is a parody of a junior high or high school-level science textbook. Though currently out-of-print, high-resolution scans are available online, as well as an abridged transcription, both of which have been endorsed by Weller.
Highlights of the book include a satirical account of the creationism vs. evolution debate and Weller's drawings of fictional prehistoric animals (e.g., the duck-billed mastodon.) Weller released a companion volume, 'Culture Made Stupid' (also spelled 'Cvltvre Made Stvpid'), which satirizes literature and the humanities.
Science Made Stupid
Is Google Making Us Stupid?
'Is Google Making Us Stupid? What the Internet is doing to our brains' is a magazine article by technology writer Nicholas G. Carr highly critical of the Internet's effect on cognition. It was published in 'The Atlantic' magazine as a six-page cover story in 2008.
Carr's main argument is that the Internet might have detrimental effects on cognition that diminish the capacity for concentration and contemplation. Despite the title, the article is not specifically targeted at Google, but more at the cognitive impact of the Internet and World Wide Web.read more »
Stupidity is a lack of intelligence, understanding, reason, wit, or sense. It may be innate, assumed, or reactive – 'being 'stupid with grief' as a defence against trauma,' a state marked with 'grief and despair…making even simple daily tasks a hardship.' The root word 'stupid,' which can serve as an adjective or noun, comes from the Latin verb 'stupere,' for 'being numb' or 'astonished,' and is related to 'stupor' (in Roman culture "the stupidus of the mimes' was a sort of professional buffoon – the 'fall-man,' the eternal he-who-gets-kicked.' The word entered the English language in the 16th century; since then, stupidity has become a pejorative appellation for human misdeeds, whether purposeful or accidental, due to absence of mental capacity.
The modern English word 'stupid' has a broad range of application, from being slow of mind (indicating a lack of intelligence, care or reason), dullness of feeling or sensation (torpidity, senseless, insensitivity), or lacking interest or point (vexing, exasperating). It can either infer a congenital lack of capacity for reasoning, or a temporary state of daze or slow-mindedness.
April Fools' Day
April Fools' Day (sometimes called 'All Fools' Day') is celebrated every year on the first day of April by playing practical jokes and spreading hoaxes. Pranksters expose their ruse by shouting 'April Fool.' Some newspapers, magazines, and other published media report fake stories, which are usually explained the next day or below the news section in small letters. Although popular since the 19th century, the day is not a public holiday in any country.
Geoffrey Chaucer's 'The Canterbury Tales' (1392) contains the first recorded association between the first of April and foolishness. Some precursors of April Fools' Day include the Roman festival of Hilaria, the Holi festival of India, and the Medieval Feast of Fools.read more »
Priming is an implicit memory effect in which exposure to one stimulus influences the response to another stimulus. Studies show that people are faster in deciding that a string of letters is a word when it follows an associatively or semantically related word. For example, 'nurse' is recognized more quickly following 'doctor' than 'bread.' As another example, if the original concept is 'red' and the word 'vehicles' is primed, people are much more likely to say 'fire engine' instead of something unrelated to vehicles, such as 'cherries.' If instead 'fruits' was primed, they would likely name 'cherries.'
Priming can also be visual, rather than semantic; if people see an incomplete sketch they are unable to identify and they are shown more of the sketch until they recognize the picture, later they will identify the sketch at an earlier stage than was possible for them the first time. The effects of priming can be very salient and long lasting, even more so than simple recognition memory. Unconscious priming can affect word choice long after the primes have been consciously forgotten. Priming works best when the two stimuli are in the same modality. For example visual priming works best with visual cues and verbal priming works best with verbal cues. But priming also occurs between modalities.read more »
Leaves of Grass
Leaves of Grass is a collection of poetry by Walt Whitman praising sensuality, the material world, nature, and the experience of the senses. The book was published at Whitman's own expense in 1855, a period where poetry focused on the soul and organized religion, and was a failure at first. Whitman spent most of his professional life writing and rewriting the book, revising it multiple times until his death. This resulted in vastly different editions over four decades—the first a small book of twelve poems and the last a compilation of over 400.
The collection is notable for its discussion of delight in carnal pleasures during a time when such candid displays were considered immoral. Where much previous poetry, especially English, relied on symbolism, allegory, and meditation on the religious and spiritual, 'Leaves of Grass' (particularly the first edition) exalted the physical form and ephemera. Influenced by Ralph Waldo Emerson and the Transcendentalist movement, itself an offshoot of Romanticism, Whitman's poetry praises nature and the individual's role in it. However, much like Emerson, Whitman does not diminish the role of the mind or the spirit; rather, he elevates the human form and mind, deeming both worthy of poetic praise.
Christopher Nolan
Christopher Nolan (b. 1970) is a British-American film director, screenwriter, and producer. He created several of the most successful films of the early 21st century, and his eight films have grossed over $3.5 billion worldwide. Having made his directorial debut with 'Following' (1998), he gained considerable attention for his second feature, 'Memento' (2000). The acclaim of these independent films afforded Nolan the opportunity to make the big-budget thriller 'Insomnia' (2002), and the more offbeat production 'The Prestige' (2006); which were well-received critically and commercially. He found popular success with 'The Dark Knight' trilogy (2005–2012), 'Inception' (2010), and 'Interstellar' (2014). He runs the London-based production company Syncopy Inc. with his wife Emma Thomas.
His films are rooted in philosophical and sociological concepts, exploring human morality, the construction of time, and the malleable nature of memory and personal identity. Experimentation with metafictive elements, temporal shifts, elliptical cutting, solipsistic perspectives, nonlinear storytelling and the analogous relationship between the visual language and narrative elements, permeate his entire body of work.read more »
A sidekick is a close companion who is generally regarded as subordinate to the one he accompanies. Some well-known fictional sidekicks include Don Quixote's Sancho Panza, Sherlock Holmes' Doctor Watson, The Lone Ranger's Tonto, and Batman's Robin.
The origin of the term is unknown. It was originally 'side kicker' (as seen in the short stories of American writer O Henry), having grown from the 1850s term 'side partner.' Contrary to popular folk etymology, it is unrelated to the early-20th century British pickpocket slang 'kick,' referring to a trouser pocket. One of the earliest recorded sidekicks may be Enkidu, who adopted a sidekick role to Gilgamesh after they became allies in the 'Epic of Gilgamesh' (an epic poem from Mesopotamia). Other early examples include Achilles' Patroclus from the 'Iliad,' and Moses' Aaron from the Bible.read more »
Stereotypes of Blondes
Blonde hair has several stereotypes associated with it. In women is has been considered attractive and desirable, but is also associate with the negative stereotypes of the women 'who relies on her looks rather than on intelligence.' The latter stereotype of a 'dumb blonde' is exploited in 'blonde jokes.' In cognitive linguistics, the stereotype uses expressivity of words to affect an emotional response which determines a gender role of a certain kind. In feminist critique, stereotypes like the blonde bombshell or the dumb blonde' are seen as negative images that undermine the power of women.
Some blonde jokes rely on sexual humor to portray or stereotype their subjects as promiscuous. Many of these are rephrased 'Valley girl' or 'Essex girl' jokes. Others are based on long-running ethnic jokes, such as humor denigrating the intelligence of Polish people. Similar jokes about stereotyped minorities have circulated since the seventeenth century with only the wording and targeted groups changed. In 20th century, a class of meta-jokes about blondes (i.e. jokes about blonde jokes) has emerged where a blonde person complains about the unfairness of the stereotype propagated by blonde jokes, with a punch line actually reinforcing the stereotype.read more »
What social psychologists call 'The principle of superficiality versus depth' has pervaded Western culture since at least the time of Plato. Socrates sought to convince his debaters to turn from the superficiality of a worldview based on the acceptance of convention to the examined life of philosophy, founded (as Plato at least considered) upon the underlying Ideas (the belief that non-material abstract ideas, and not the material world of change known to us through sensation, possess the highest and most fundamental kind of reality).
For more than two millennia, there was in the Platonic wake a general valorization of critical thought over the superficial subjectivity that refused deep analysis. The salon style of the Précieuses (a 17th century French literary movement characterized by wit and wordplay) might for a time affect superficiality, and advance the treatment of serious topics in a light-hearted fashion; but the prevailing western consensus firmly rejected elements such as everyday chatter or the changing vagaries of fashion as superficial distractions from a deeper reality.read more »
John Swartzwelder
John Swartzwelder (b. 1950) is an American comedy writer and novelist, best known for his work on the animated television series 'The Simpsons,' as well as a number of novels. He is credited with writing the largest number of 'Simpsons' episodes by a large margin (59 full episodes, with contributions to several others). Swartzwelder was one of several writers recruited to show from the pages of George Meyer's 'Army Man' magazine (a short-lived comedy periodical published in the late 1980s; Meyer would also go on to become an acclaimed 'Simpsons' writer).
Swartzwelder has been animated in the background of several episodes of 'The Simpsons.' His animated likeness closely resembles musician David Crosby, which prompted Matt Groening to state that anytime that David Crosby appears in a scene for no apparent reason, it is really John Swartzwelder. Additionally, Matt Groening has stated that the recurring character 'Herman Hermann' (the owner of Herman's Military Antiques) was originally physically based on Swartzwelder–with the exception of his one arm.

We specialize in growing great peonies
The 2016 catalogue is a pretty selection of old and new cultivars from the venerable world of the peony. Some of my personal favourites include Nosegay – for perfect early flowers, Kelway's Bridesmaid – for fragrance and history and Lancaster Imp for perfectly formed flowers that require no staking.
Don't hesitate to give me a call if you need any advice or help deciding which peonies to grow.
The growing pages include a wealth of information about growing peonies and a list of Frequently Asked Questions. You will also find links to YouTube videos on how to plant peonies. I was amazed when I noticed that the planting herbaceous peonies video has been watched over 63,000 times!
Our peonies are shipped bare root each fall to gardeners in Canada, the United States and Europe. Shipping begins in late August or early September and orders are shipped in the sequence in which they are received so ordering early not only guarantees more choice but also an earlier arrival of plants in fall.
Enjoy your garden!

|A SURF Beamline for Synchrotron Source-Based Absolute Radiometry
|February 01, 2003
|A new source-based radiometry beamline at Synchrotron Ultraviolet Radiation Facility (SURF III) was constructed recently. The goal of this beamline is to establish a national source standard with wide spectral range from far UVto IR by using the calculability of SURF III. The new beamline is a straight-through white-light beamline with no or minimum optical components in delivering the radiation to the user station for applications such as source and irradiance intercomparison. Due to the low and flexible operating electron energy of SURF III (from 380 MeV to less than 100 MeV), the beamline is uniquely suitable for ultraviolet to infrared work. In this paper, we discuss the design of the beamline and present the first results on the vertical angular distribution of the radiation, determined with filtered radiometers in the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared spectral ranges.

WIU Broadcasting Students Finalists in National Competition
February 17, 2014
MACOMB, IL - Students in the Western Illinois University Department of Broadcasting have broken a record for the number of finalists in a national competition.
The department has 11 nominations, the largest yet, in the National Association of Broadcasting Society's Undergraduate Student Electronic Media Competition.
Students received nominations in the video newscast category for the first time this year. "NEWS3 Live at 4" took half of the nominations, with two episodes qualifying as finalists. NEWS3 is a student-produced newscast that airs live every semester twice a week.
Department Chair William "Buzz" Hoon says the newscast recognition speaks to the quality of instruction students are receiving from faculty member Jasmine Crighton.
Jasmine Crighton, news coordinator for the student newscasts, joined broadcasting in August 2012 and has helped to organize news coverage and train the student producers and directors. Crighton says the two nominated newscasts were ones that centered on the tornadoes that devastated nearby Washington, IL. A student crew attended a media conference the day after the storms swept through and reported on the storm's cleanup.
"Anyone watching those newscasts wouldn't think they were watching students. It was quality reporting, anchoring, producing and technical work. The way we handled those stories shows our students' professionalism, and I'm very proud of the work they are doing," said Crighton.
This year's finalists include:
- Audio Feature Package "Watchdog in Macomb," Audio Feature Segment "Balloon Rally in Macomb," Video News Segment "Tornado Hits Washington, IL" and Animation "Super Quest: Season 1, Episode 2: Those Who Fight Further" by Chris Lovingood, senior, Peoria, IL
- Audio PSA "WIU Dance Marathon PSA" by Jay Jacobs, junior, Harvard, IL
- Audio PSA "Macomb Family Diner PSA" and Audio Commercial "Chicks on the Square Commercial" by Pierce Roberson, senior, Chicago, IL
- Audio Commercial "Chicks Commercial" by Anthony Jones, junior, Poplar Grove, IL
- Video Newscast "NEWS3 November 19, 2013" by Chris Lovingood, Toria Duffey (graduate), Joseph Mazanek (graduate), Ryan Stoops (graduate) and Jack Pluta (senior, Laurium, MI)
- Video Newscast "NEWS3 Live at 4 11-21-13" by Pierce Roberson, Chris Lovingood, Jay Jacobs, Dana Zimmer (senior, Sugar Grove, IL)
- Video Sports Program "Pigskin Preview" by Andrew Bacon, junior, Chatham, IL

The Disappearance of Finbar
- Release Date: Mar 17, 2000
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Acted by an appealing cast, enlivened with well-chosen and varied music and filmed with bleak beauty by the cinematographer Eduardo Serra.
Narrative-driven and determinedly unpredictable, The Disappearance of Finbar is true to its mandate as a mystery story to a fault. [18 Jul 1987]
The beautiful ice-blue landscapes are really the only reason to sit through this rambling and rather silly first feature by writer-director Sue Clayton.
[Rhys Meyers] remains trapped in an enervating road movie - shelved so long that Rhys Meyers still appears to have baby fat - summed up when Finbar, who turns up in Finland (natch), asks whey-faced Danny, "You couldn't find anything better to do than to come find me?!"
Nothing that makes much sense in Sue Clayton's strained fable about friendship, betrayal and the escapist dream of disappearing in the midst of a miserable patch of life. [17 Mar 2000]
Brit filmmaker Sue Clayton's muddled feature bow is full of intriguing ideas and incidental charms that fail to come together into a cohesive whole.
Part of the problem is that the Finbar character is both underdeveloped and unattractive - you don't get a sense of why anyone would miss him, let alone go searching for him in the snow. [17 Mar 2000]

So far I'm really enjoying the plugin, thank you so much for making it!
I did, however, wonder if there would be any easy way to arrange the plugin so attachments did not try to use a gallery by default. I am attempting to use this plugin to capture MP3s, and while the files appear to be uploaded to the gallery, there is only a blank gallery in the post.
Any ideas to hack this together are greatly appreciated. Otherwise, please keep up the great work!

Plaque is the major cause of tooth decay and gum disease (gingivitis), so it is important to floss and brush properly. One way to test for proper brushing is to use disclosing tablets. After chewing a tablet and rinsing the mouth, pink-stained areas on the teeth identify the areas that contain plaque. If plaque is not removed, tooth decay or gingivitis can develop.

Only walked around, but found it very clean and enjoyed the shopping.
Some of the people were quite rude and arugmentative when you didn't want to take a taxi into town. It's a very easy walk into town and after being on ship, we just wanted to walk around. My mom is 87 and I'd tell them that it was hard for her to sit in a taxi for a long time and keep getting in and out so we didn't want to go on a tour. They'd say that's obviously not true as she obviously sits on the ship. I'd say that's why we wanted to walk around. It was like that the whole walk into town. She was very uncomfortable. One guy said that if we weren't going to buy anything or do a tour then we shouldn't come to their island. However, the police at the crossing walks were wonderful and made you feel welcome.

Social landlord's staff to strike after being forced to 'work for free'
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing and also in Communities
Social landlord's staff to strike after being forced to 'work for free'Image: Housing via Shutterstock
A Scottish social landlord's maintenance staff will take industrial action after being forced to work extra hours 'for free'.
Scottish Borders Housing Association failed to reach an agreement with union Unite during negotiations over plans to make staff go from 38 hours a week to 41 without extra pay or overtime entitlement.
The 6,000-home provider saw relations break down with staff after it demanded that workers are 'on site' by 8am - rather than the working day beginning when they left home in the morning.
A Unite consultative ballot held earlier this month found that 63% of SBHA's 95 maintenance staff want to take strike action.
Unite says that it has put forward a number of counter proposals to SBHA's director of technical services, Alan Vass, but attempts for a resolution have seen "management repeatedly renege on any progress".
Unite's regional industrial officer, Tony Trench, said: "There should be no doubt this increasingly bitter dispute is a mess of the SBHA's making.
"Time and time again they are shifting the goal-posts on their workers in a blatant attempt to increase working time and change established working practices on the cheap.
"Our members are highly skilled tradesmen delivering a raft of vital services for SBHA and their tenants across the region - they are being shown no respect and they deserve better than to get stiffed out of a modest working wage.
"Unite remains ready and willing to reach a properly negotiated settlement with SBHA to address the organisational challenges at play but we will not have our members terms and conditions compromised by managerial incompetence."
Speaking to the Border Telegraph, SBHA's director of technical services, Alan Vass, said: "We believe it is reasonable that our staff start work on site at 8am as this is standard industry practice.
"Our maintenance division has undergone considerable change in recent years with a strong focus on better services for tenants.
"We have always offered appointments from 8am and these have been based on tenant feedback.
"The division has made great strides in these areas and we will continue to implement change where it is needed to ensure its future growth, while at the same time ensuring a stable financial future and providing job security for our staff.
"Our door remains open to all staff and their representatives to discuss areas of concern.
"We look forward to working with Unite to make sure there continues to be an uninterrupted service for our customers."

Location description from owner
The England region
Wiltshire is a county in South West England with an area of 3,485 km2 (1,346 square miles).[2] It is landlocked and borders the counties of Dorset, Somerset, Hampshire, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire. Until 1930 the county town was Wilton but Wiltshire Council is now based at Trowbridge.Wiltshire is characterised by its high downland and wide valleys. Salisbury Plain is famous as the location of the Stonehenge and Avebury stone circles and other ancient landmarks and as a training area for the British Army. The city of Salisbury is notable for its mediaeval cathedral. Important country houses open to the public include Longleat, near Warminster, and the National Trust's Stourhead, near Mere.The county, in the 9th century written as Wiltunscir, later Wiltonshire, is named after the former county town of Wilton,[3] itself named after the river Wylye, one of eight rivers which drain the county. History of WiltshireStonehengeWiltshire is notable for its pre-Roman archaeology. The Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age people that occupied southern Britain built settlements on the hills and downland that cover Wiltshire. Stonehenge and Avebury are perhaps the most famous Neolithic sites in the UK.In the 6th and 7th centuries Wiltshire was at the western edge of Saxon Britain, as Cranborne Chase and the Somerset Levels prevented the advance to the west. The Battle of Bedwyn was fought in 675 between Escuin, a West Saxon nobleman who had seized the throne of Queen Saxburga, and King Wulfhere of Mercia.[4] In 878 the Danes invaded the county. Following the Norman Conquest, large areas of the country came into the possession of the crown and the church.At the time of the Domesday Survey the industry of Wiltshire was largely agricultural; 390 mills are mentioned, and vineyards at Tollard and Lacock. In the succeeding centuries sheep-farming was vigorously pursued, and the Cistercian monasteries of Kingswood and Stanley exported wool to the Florentine and Flemish markets in the 13th and 14th centuries.In the 17th century English Civil War Wiltshire was largely Parliamentarian. The Battle of Roundway Down, a decisive Royalist victory, was fought near Devizes.In 1794 it was decided at a meeting at the Bear Inn in Devizes to raise a body of ten independent troops of Yeomanry for the county of Wiltshire, which formed the basis for what would become the Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry, who served with distinction both at home and abroad, during the Boer War, World War I and World War II. The Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry currently lives on as A (RWY) Squadron of the Royal Yeomanry, based in Swindon, and B (RWY) Squadron of the Royal Wessex Yeomanry, based in Salisbury.[citation needed]Around 1800 the Kennet and Avon Canal was built through Wiltshire providing a route for transporting cargoes from Bristol to London until the development of the Great Western Railway.Information on the 261 civil parishes of Wiltshire is available on the Wiltshire Community History website, run by the Libraries and Heritage services of Wiltshire County Council. This site includes maps, demographic data, historic and modern pictures and short histories.The MoonrakersThe local nickname for Wiltshire natives is "moonrakers." This originated from a story of smugglers who managed to foil the local Excise men by hiding their alcohol, possibly French brandy in barrels or kegs, in a village pond. When confronted by the excise men they raked the surface in order to conceal the submerged contraband with ripples, and claimed that they were trying to rake in a large round cheese visible in the pond, really a reflection of the full moon. The officials took them for simple yokels or mad and left them alone, allowing them to continue with their illegal activities. Many villages claim the tale for their own village pond, but the story is most commonly linked with The Crammer in Devizes.Geology, landscape and ecologyCherhill White Horse, east of CalneTwo thirds of Wiltshire, a mostly rural county, lies on chalk, a kind of soft, white, porous limestone that is resistant to erosion, giving it a high chalk downland landscape. This chalk is part of a system of chalk downlands throughout eastern and southern England formed by the rocks of the Chalk Group and stretching from the Dorset Downs in the west to Dover in the east. The largest area of chalk in Wiltshire is Salisbury Plain, which is used mainly for arable agriculture and by the British Army as training ranges. The highest point in the county is the Tan Hill–Milk Hill ridge in the Pewsey Vale, just to the north of Salisbury Plain, at 295 m (968 ft) above sea level.The chalk uplands run northeast into West Berkshire in the Marlborough Downs ridge, and southwest into Dorset as Cranborne Chase. Cranborne Chase, which straddles the border, has, like Salisbury Plain, yielded much Stone Age and Bronze Age archaeology. The Marlborough Downs are part of the North Wessex Downs AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), a 1,730 km2 (670-square-mile) conservation area.In the northwest of the county, on the border with South Gloucestershire and Bath and North East Somerset, the underlying rock is the resistant oolite limestone of the Cotswolds. Part of the Cotswolds AONB is also in Wiltshire, in the county's northwestern corner.Between the areas of chalk and limestone downland are clay valleys and vales. The largest of these vales is the Avon Vale. The Avon cuts diagonally through the north of the county, flowing through Bradford on Avon and into Bath and Bristol. The Vale of Pewsey has been cut through the chalk into Greensand and Oxford Clay in the centre of the county. In the south west of the county is the Vale of Wardour. The southeast of the county lies on the sandy soils of the northernmost area of the New Forest.Chalk is a porous rock so the chalk hills have little surface water. The main settlements in the county are therefore situated at wet points. Notably, Salisbury is situated between the chalk of Salisbury Plain and marshy flood plains.ClimateAlong with the rest of South West England, Wiltshire has a temperate climate which is generally wetter and milder than the rest of the country.[7] The annual mean temperature is approximately 10 °C (50.0 °F). Seasonal temperature variation is less extreme than most of the United Kingdom because of the adjacent sea temperatures. The summer months of July and August are the warmest with mean daily maxima of approximately 21 °C (69.8 °F). In winter mean minimum temperatures of 1 °C (33.8 °F) or 2 °C (35.6 °F) are common.[7] In the summer the Azores high pressure affects the south-west of England, however convective cloud sometimes forms inland, reducing the number of hours of sunshine. Annual sunshine rates are slightly less than the regional average of 1,600 hours.[7] In December 1998 there were 20 days without sun recorded at Yeovilton. Most the rainfall in the south-west is caused by Atlantic depressions or by convection. Most of the rainfall in autumn and winter is caused by the Atlantic depressions, which is when they are most active. In summer, a large proportion of the rainfall is caused by sun heating the ground leading to convection and to showers and thunderstorms. Average rainfall is around 700 mm (28 in). About 8–15 days of snowfall is typical. November to March have the highest mean wind speeds, and June to August have the lightest winds. The predominant wind direction is from the south-west.[7]
Ogbourne Saint George is a village on the River Og about 3 miles (4.8 km) north of Marlborough, Wiltshire.In the Middle Ages the manor of Ogbourne St George belonged to the Benedictine Bec Abbey in Normandy. Ogbourne Priory was founded in about 1149 as a daughter house of the abbey.[2] For two hundred years the priory managed all the English estates belonging to the abbey.[citation needed]The present manor house is built on the site of the priory.[2] The house is Jacobean and the date 1619 is inscribed on one of its chimneystacks. It received some Georgian remodelling, including the current glazing of its windows and probably the hipped roof.Parish churchThe Church of England parish church of Saint George may be Norman in origin.[2] The three-bay arcade of the south aisle is Early English Gothic and the arcade of the north aisle is slightly later.[2] The church's windows and bell tower are Perpendicular Gothic additions from later in the Middle Ages.[2] The tower has a ring of five bells, with an 18 hundredweight tenor tuned to E-flat. St. George's is now part of the Ridgeway Benefice along with the parishes of Chiseldon with Draycot Foliat and Ogbourne St Andrew with Rockley.Former railwayThe Swindon Marlborough and Andover Railway was built through the parish and opened in 1881, including a new railway station at Ogbourne. The railway company later renamed itself the Midland and South Western Junction Railway. It was made part of the Great Western Railway in 1923 and British Railways closed the line through Ogbourne station in 1961. Part of the line has been obliterated in the Ogbourne St George district by the realignment of the A346 road, but most of the trackbed is now part of National Cycle Route 45.Marlborough:Is a market town and civil parish in the English county of Wiltshire on the Old Bath Road, the old main road from London to Bath. It boasts the second widest high street in Britain, after Stockton-on-Tees. The town is on the river Kennet.The earliest sign of human habitation is a 62 feet (19 m) high prehistoric tumulus in the grounds of Marlborough College. Recent radiocarbon dating has found it to date from about 2400 BC.[4] It is of similar age to the larger Silbury Hill about 5 miles (8.0 km) west of the town. Legend has it that the Mound is the burial site of Merlin[5] and that the name of the town, Marlborough comes from Merlin's Barrow. On John Speed's map of Wiltshire (1611), the town's name is recorded as Marlinges boroe. The town's motto is Ubi nunc sapientis ossa Merlini - Where now are the bones of wise Merlin.[6] More plausibly, the town's name probably derives from the medieval term for chalky ground "marl" – thus "town on chalk".Further evidence of human occupation comes from the discovery of the Marlborough Bucket, an Iron Age burial bucket, with decorations of human heads and animals on sheet bronze, on display at the Wiltshire Heritage Museum in Devizes.Roman remains and coins have been found two miles to the east of Marlborough, at Mildenhall (Cunetio). A later Saxon settlement grew up around The Green and two early river crossings were made at Isbury Lane and Stonebridge Lane.In 1067 William the Conqueror assumed control of the Marlborough area and set about building a wooden motte and bailey castle, sited on the prehistoric mound. This was completed in around 1100. Stone was used to strengthen the castle in around 1175. The first written record of Marlborough dates from the Domesday Book in 1087. William also established a mint in Marlborough, which coined the William I and the early William II silver pennies. The coins display the name of the town as Maerlebi or Maerleber.He also established the neighbouring Savernake Forest as a favourite Royal hunting ground[7] and Marlborough Castle became a Royal residence. Henry I observed Easter here in 1110. Henry II stayed at Marlborough Castle in talks with the King of Scotland. His son, Richard I (Coeur de Lion) gave the castle to his brother John, in 1186. King John was married here and spent time in Marlborough. He even established a Treasury.Marlborough MarketIn 1204 King John granted Charter to the Borough which permitted an annual eight-day fair, commencing on 14 August, the vigil of the Feast of the Assumption of Our Lady (15 August), in which "all might enjoy the liberties and quittances customary in the fair at Winchester". He also established that weekly markets may be held on Wednesdays and Saturdays. These continue to this day.[8]Later Henry III was also married here.[9] Henry III held Parliament here, in 1267, when the Statute of Marlborough was passed (this gave rights and privileges to small land owners and limited the right of the King to take possession of land). This seven-hundred-year-old law states that no-one shall seize his neighbour's goods for alleged wrong without permission of the Court. Apart from Charters, it is the oldest statute in English law which has not yet been repealed.St Mary's parish churchThe castle fell into disrepair by the end of the 14th century but remained Crown property. Edward VI then passed it to the Seymour family, his mother's relatives. In 1498 Thomas Wolsey was ordained priest in (the now redundant) St Peter's church. He later rose to become a cardinal and Lord Chancellor.In 1642 Marlborough's peace was shattered by the English Civil War. The Seymours held the Castle for the King but the Town was for Parliament. With his headquarters in nearby Oxford, King Charles had to deal with Marlborough. "A Town the most notoriously disaffected of all that Country, otherwise, saving the obstinacy and malice of the inhabitants, in the situation of it very unfit for a garrison... this place the King saw would prove quickly an ill neighbour to him, not only as it was in the heart of a rich County, and so would straighten him, and even infest his quarters."The King sent Lord Digby to take the town who left Oxford, the head of four hundred horses, 24 November 1642. When he arrived, he chose to parley first, thus giving the inhabitants a chance to prepare defences and to recruit troops. They mustered about seven hundred poorly armed men. At this point, the town issued a reply to Digby: "The King's Majesty, providing he were attended in Royal and not in war like wise, should be as welcome to that town as ever was Prince to People; but as to delivering up the good Town of Marlborough to such a traitor as Lord Digby ... they would sooner die". After some early skirmishes, Royalist troops infiltrated the town down its small alleyways. The town was captured and looted and many buildings were set ablaze. One hundred and twenty prisoners were marched in chains to Oxford. The town was later abandoned by the King and took no further part in the war.On 28 April 1653 the Great Fire of Marlborough started in a tanner's yard and spread quickly eventually after four hours burning the Guildhall, St Mary's Church the County Armoury, and two hundred and forty four houses[10] to the ground.[11] Fire swept through the Town again in 1679 and again in 1690. This time, an Act of Parliament was passed "to prohibit the covering of houses and other buildings with thatch in the Town of Marlborough".[12] During the rebuilding of the town after the Great Fire of Marlborough in 1653 which destroyed almost the entire town, the high street became what is often claimed to be the widest in England though the actual widest is in Stockton-on-Tees. This wide street allows ample space for the local market.In 1804 the Marlborough White Horse was cut by boys from Mr Greasley's Academy in the High Street.In 2004 Marlborough celebrated 800 years of its Town Charter, among the celebrations was a street play by the Marlborough Players entitled "Wheels of Time" and a visit from HRH Prince Charles.Town eventsEvery summer the town holds a jazz festival with local pubs, clubs, hotels and various other venues playing host to live jazz music over the course of a weekend. Every October the high street is closed for the two Saturdays either side of 11 October for the Marlborough mop fair. This was originally a hiring fair for agricultural workers seeking employment but now has become a travelling funfair. The right of the town to close the road to hold the fair is set down in the 1204 Charter.

I'm wondering if EDD can point to a file hosted at Assembla, the site which allows private Git and SVN projects for free, on contrary to GitHub which charges for private projects.
I've read you've been working on a Dropbox addon. It is very nice. In addition to it, it would be also really nice to have an addon for Assembla integration so that we don't have to upload files to the server hosting the WordPress site but simply commit the files to the repository.
The problem is that a file url hosted on Assembla is variadic and changes with the revision number like,
https://www.assembla.com/code/PROJECTNAME/git/nodes/releases/file.zip?_format=raw&rev=e380f951926deae4e07363380cbd2e09, where

Dr. Nanak J. Pamnani
I/c Principal,
IIET, Dharmaj
The engineering education should be a combination of theory and field work. It should fulfill the emerging needs of education, industry and research & its application. Engineering should reach to
"Rural" area of India.
Ipcowala Institute of Engineering and Technology (IIET), located at such a fantastic rural area Dharmaj. Established in 2011, with a vast eco-friendly infrastructure along with experience and qualified staff. The new generation students studying at IIET are the engineers of tomorrow.
It gives me immense pleasure, happiness and satisfaction when I see smiles on the faces of young boys and girls, learning engineering on the campus, doing hard work to face upcoming challenges and making life long friends through their curricular and extracurricular activities .
I am sure the students passing from this institute will create difference in Indian and global scenario.

How to Know When You're Ready to Get Engaged
The decision to get married feels like a biggie....and certainly not one I wanted to enter into lightly. But somehow I just knew it was the right thing.
I can't say that I recommend dating someone for 10 years prior to marriage, but I also can't say it's a bad thing either. It's just what happened for us.
I remember all the years before I met him when I feared I'd never find anybody...always hoping that someone would cross my path or look my way. I never really had a steady boyfriend and didn't date a whole lot either. Maybe I felt like I wasn't worthy or perhaps just put up a wall around myself to protect myself from getting hurt.
I'll never forget what my mom said to me after my first date with the southern beau: "Just be open to the opportunity. Don't close yourself off from any good thing that might come out of it."
And of course she was right.
Then I look back to the decade we've spent getting to know each other, the ups and downs, the ins and outs. There were times when I didn't think we'd make it. There was a short time we didn't. But we found the way back.
There's no checklist or Cosmo quiz that can tell you when it's the right time to get engaged (or make any big life decisions). You just have to trust your gut (which is really your heart).
Have you ever wanted to believe something really badly? And you worked double overtime to try and convince yourself it was so? This is such a tricky spot to find yourself in...always striving and trying to push a believe you hold in your brain down into your heart.
It was never supposed to work this way. Our truest beliefs are already alive in our hearts. Our heads just haven't caught up yet. And the beauty is that you don't have to convince your head of something your heart already knows.
I don't have to convince my heart that my beau loves me...because I already believe that he does. So the idea of spending my life with him sounds alright to me.
In many ways, it's exactly like how I don't have to convince my heart that God loves me...I just believe it because the truth of it lives in my heart.
I don't want to make a big deal of my engagement because I know there are folks out there who feel alone...maybe their sweetheart passed away. Or maybe they haven't found anybody to spend their life with. I was there once so I can relate.
But we can all be encouraged that whatever life decisions (large or small) that we might find ourselves faced with...we can do whatever our heart desires. That will always be the right choice.
And if it makes you feel better, people who get engaged after 10 years of dating are not an urban legend...we do exist!

Yes, we do exist! My husband and I dated 11 1/2 years before tying the knot; and like you, endured a short break as well as a large amount of that time many miles apart from each other. We celebrated our 20th in December. Best wishes Kate, for a beautiful marriage!!!ReplyDelete
I love every word of this post. I love seeing your Heart here and I celebrate you and that awesome Southern Beau of yours! You're going to be a wonderful wife because you lead with Love <3 Congrats!!!ReplyDelete
CONGRATS!! I am so excited for you both.ReplyDelete
