Our friends over at Ryedale Mumbler have reviewed their experience of Water Babies swimming lessons, read all about it below……
As my little ones Water Babies journey nears its end with graduation looming, I am taking time to reflect and look back on what we have both achieved over the past four and a bit years since our lessons began. I say "our" lessons because they really have been "our" lessons, it has been a joint experience, we have learnt together, our fabulous teachers have taught me how to teach my little one to swim. From the gentle beginnings of us both becoming comfortable in the water to giving me the confidence and courage to let me toddler go and watch her swim completely independently across the pool…a very proud moment!
Right from the very beginning we were guided and nurtured through skills and techniques by our teacher that began to lay the foundations of Eliza being not only safe in the water but beginning to swim. One of the most important aspects behind my choice to start swimming classes at such a young age was for my children to be safe around water, from our very first class, safety skills began to be introduced, gently developing word association and understanding that eventually would teach my little one how to get to safety in an emergency. I still remember that pride and excitement when she held on, on their own for the very first time…it was so amazing at just 4 months (and some in the class certainly did this younger – wow!).
All of the fantastic songs, skills and games that were the building block to unbelievably confident independent swimmer she is now is. From those tiny little kicks in the early baby chapters to those huge splashing kicks as a young toddler to now elegant (at times?!) little kicks with pointy toes, every skill or game has a purpose (and your little one doesn't even realise).
I have witnessed first hand the benefits that swimming can have, when July comes, both my children will have completed the full Water Babies "programme". They are physically strong and have great co-ordination, their speech and understanding came at a very early age and I honestly feel that their lessons played a part in this. Also I am not going to lie, I still enjoy the afternoon nap we get home after each lesson, giving me chance for a enjoy nice warm cuppa!!!
All of the teachers are fantastic and will hold a special place in our hearts as they nurtured us through the different stages in our journey. Each teacher has constantly talked and communicated directly with each individual child in the lessons giving them their time and attention. They ensure everyone is involved and included within the class regardless of whether they have decided to throw the biggest toddler tantrum ever and are refusing to do anything they are asked!!! To the tiny baby who screams all the way through their first lesson, or the mum who can't swim so is a bit anxious about being in the pool. Or perhaps mum or dad are having a hard time and not feeling up to giving the class their all that day, the teachers work their magic making it an enjoyable half hour. The teachers have always shown understanding, patience and empathy to both child and parent. They clearly love what they do and put their all into each and every lesson, and as parents themselves, they understand!
Water Babies, our journey, has been magical and we don't want it to end, but on the day we depart our final class we will no doubt shed a few tears, but we will be leaving with a truly confident Water Baby who will go on to enjoy thoroughly the next phase in their swimming journey thanks to everything you have done for us!
This short film shows a little one at the start of their Water Babies journey and then a pre-schooler nearing the end of her Water Babies journey, to give an insight into the skills that are developed, where they start and how they progress. When little ones join Water Babies classes they are placed in classes that are suitable to their age and stage of development, you would certainly never have a class where there was a 6month baby and a 3.5year old toddler like there is here! The skills and activities delivered at in each Chapter are tailored to the baby or toddlers stage of development; song, games and interaction with toys are utilised to ensure the classes are enjoyable whilst laying the foundations of swimming and key water safety skills.

November 6, 2017
MOORESVILLE, N.C. (November 6, 2017) – MDM Motorsports announced the second driver to its ARCA Racing Series lineup with 18-year-old Zane Smith committing to the organization for 2018.
Smith, who had an impressive three-race stint with MDM that included two poles, a pair of runner-up finishes and a third-place effort, will be teamed with veteran crew chief Mardy Lindley for the upcoming season. Lindley led Harrison Burton to the 2017 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East championship and was a part of four ARCA wins this season, most recently at Kansas Speedway in the season finale. The Lindley-led team will head to Talladega Superspeedway tomorrow for a two-day test session with Smith as the ARCA Series teams prepare for the implementation of the composite race car bodies at the superspeedway events as part of the season-long mandate.
"I had the chance to work with Mardy and the team at MDM at multiple events late this year, and we were fast right off the truck at each track, so there's a level of confidence going into a new season that I haven't felt before," Smith stated. "Going to Talladega this week for the superspeedway test with the composite bodies, for me, is more about building chemistry with my team. They have certain things they want to accomplish with the aerodynamics of the race car, and I'm there to give my feedback and help us jell as a race team. This wouldn't be possible without my sponsors La Paz Mixes, Icon Vehicle Dynamics, KMC Wheels and SPEEDVEGAS, and it's our goal to take each and every one of them to Victory Lane next year."
Smith, a native of Huntington Beach, Calif., has been racing since the age of three and has recorded more than 100 wins from Karts to Legends to Super Late Models. Smith cemented himself as a top young driver by winning the overall Super Late Model championship at the World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing at New Smyrna (Fla.) Speedway and then finishing runner-up to Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series star Chase Elliott in the 2015 Snowball Derby earning him a spot in the prestigious NASCAR Next class.
"We only caught a glimpse of what Zane's capable of accomplishing behind the wheel of a race car in the three races that he drove for MDM this season," said Mark McFarland, MDM Motorsports' managing partner. "Zane started on the front row in all three events and didn't finish outside the top three at venues like Salem, Kentucky and Kansas. We are building a great core of drivers for next season, and the addition of Zane, who is not only a great driver but a great teammate, will add depth to our organization as we run for a championship next season."

Nothing is better than a great baseball cap with a clear, concise message on it. It can be the accessory that pulls together an outfit to make it complete. Creating a custom baseball cap that is amazing can be more difficult than you would think. The number of ideas and options to use are limitless. While there is no denying a sleek, classic look to a baseball hat, a custom one can be even better.
There are many steps involved in creating the perfect custom baseball cap. No matter what the reason behind creating one is, the following steps are all you need to get yourself on the way to an excellent product.
1. Pick Cap Style
The first and most important step is to pick the style of hat you want to customize. There are many great options to choose from beyond baseball caps including beanies, fitted, trucker hats and snapbacks. Once you have selected the style of cap you want to customize, you will be ready to start the next step.
2. Choose A Color Scheme
For some people, this will be the easiest step in the process. For others, choosing the right color for the baseball cap will be a very difficult one. Choosing the right color will depend on what your logo will be and the colors you are going to use. All of the colors you choose for your hat and logo need to match. When designing your custom baseball cap online, you will be able to mix and match many color schemes until you find the right mix.
3. Add Your Image
While not everyone will choose to place an image on their custom baseball cap, there are certainly endless options to consider. If you are designing a company hat, you may want to add a picture that relates to the company, such as the picture located on the logo. As with the color scheme, you will be able to place an image onto your hat before you make your final decision. Most companies will allow you to use one of their many available images or allow you to upload your own. Keep in mind that you will not be able to place an image onto your customized baseball cap that is copyrighted.
4. Add Text
It doesn't matter if you opted for an image or not, you may want to add some text onto your customized baseball cap. The text you choose to have put on the cap will depend on the hat's intended purpose. You may decide to put your company name, your motto, website address or something else significant to you. There is only a limited amount of space to place text on your hat. Once you chose the text to have embroidered, you will have to choose the font, size and placement. This part can be tricky and may take some time before you are happy with your choices.
5. Final Inspection And Purchase
Now that you have picked your hat style, the color scheme and decided on text and images, it is time to inspect everything all together. This is the time to make last-minute changes to things you aren't quite happy about. Do not rush this step because once you pay for it, it is a done deal. When you are completely satisfied, you will be able to purchase your custom-designed baseball cap. Depending on the reason for the hat, you may choose to order just a single cap or many. Some companies will offer discounts to buyers who purchase multiples of the same hat.
Now that you have designed your own custom baseball cap, the next step is to simply wait for it to arrive. Once you have it, wear it proudly anytime you are able to. When it comes in the mail, be sure to give it a thorough look to make sure everything was done how you ordered it. If you notice anything wrong, call the customer service department of the company you ordered from. They should be more than happy to work with you and come up with a solution. If you are happy with how your custom baseball cap turned out, you will be able to enjoy it for years to come.

Secretary-General Kofi Annan warned today that he was "very concerned" that agreement might not be reached in time on a draft document for next week's World Summit at United Nations Headquarters in New York, and he urged "more give and take" from Member States.
Secretary-General Kofi Annan warned today that he was "very concerned" that agreement might not be reached in time on a draft document for next week's World Summit at United Nations Headquarters in New York, and he urged "more give and take" from Member States.
With only days left before the world body hosts the largest ever gathering of global leaders, a General Assembly panel looked set to go into marathon deliberations over the weekend in an effort to produce an agreed outcome document on issues ranging from enacting UN reform to promoting development to battling terrorism.
"Serious discussions are going on," Mr. Annan told the closing session of the 58th annual UN Department of Public Information/Non-Governmental Organizations (DPI/NGO) Conference. "If Member States are going to get a meaningful outcome, there will need to be more give and take. But the clock is ticking.
"I am very concerned that despite some signs of progress, the work may not finish on time and the deadline will be missed. Of course, I would be happy to be proven wrong," he added in his most detailed expression of concern this week as the talks have gone down to the wire.
"Throughout the past week, I have urged ambassadors who are negotiating the outcome document to remember that in today's interconnected world, the collective interest is often the national interest. They must negotiate with that spirit in mind," he said, stressing the need for a balanced outcome that meets every country's main concerns, from terrorism and non-proliferation to post-conflict reconstruction, human rights and UN reform itself.
The General Assembly Core Group, set up by Assembly President Jean Ping of Gabon to draft the document for the 2005 World Summit from 14 to 16 September, expected to be attended by some 180 heads of State or government, continued its marathon sessions today and prepared for a long weekend.
Yesterday it took up the section on Secretariat management reforms, the Human Rights Council and the concept of the responsibility to protect civilians from genocide and other crimes against humanity.
These and a host of other proposals were contained in Mr. Annan's report in March "In Larger Freedom: towards development, security and human rights for all." He has repeatedly spoken of the unique opportunity offered by the Summit in this 60th anniversary year of the UN to rise up to the challenges of the 21st century.
On Wednesday he told reporters he hoped the issues would not get watered down to the point where they become meaningless. "We are getting to the wire and I would expect more give and take between the next 24/48 hours for us to be able to have a competent document to place before the heads of State and government," he said then.
Mr. Annan's report, a kind of blueprint for the Summit, contained key recommendations on poverty, security and human rights, including increasing official development assistance by developed countries to 0.7 per cent of their gross domestic product (GDP).
It called for tackling climate change, noting that the Kyoto Protocol containing binding targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions only extends until 2012, and for a comprehensive anti-terrorism treaty, defining terrorism as any act intended to cause death or serious bodily harm to civilians or non-combatants and intimidate a population or coerce a government or international organization.
The report also urged the creation of two new bodies, a UN Peacebuilding Council to help countries emerging from conflict, and a more powerful Human Rights Council elected by the General Assembly to replace the current Geneva-based Commission on Human Rights, which critics says is politicized.
Other recommendations included establishing a democracy fund, expanding the Security Council from its current 15 members to 24 and streamlining the UN Secretariat.
If acted on, the proposals would mark the most dramatic change in the UN's functioning ever achieved at once.

FREED convicts who heed President Rodrigo Duterte's order to surrender within 15 days from Sept. 4, 2019 will be brought to the nearest penal farm operated by the Bureau of Corrections (BuCor).
BuCor officer-in-charge, Assistant Secretary Melvin Ramon Buenafe, was referring to inmates convicted of heinous crimes who were released under the good conduct time allowance (GCTA) system in the last six years.
Processing of GCTA has been suspended pending review after it was learned that several persons convicted of high-profile crimes were ordered released for good behavior, including James Anthony Uy, Josman Aznar, Ariel Balansag and Alberto Caño, who were among the seven men found guilty in 1999 of the special complex crime of kidnapping and serious illegal detention with homicide and rape of Marijoy Chiong and the simple kidnapping and serious illegal detention of her sister Jacqueline in 1997. Jacqueline's body has never been found.
In Cebu, the five freed heinous crime convicts who have surrendered will be taken to the Leyte Regional Prison in Abuyog, Leyte.
They are 70-year-old Virgilio Batulan, 50-year-old Jesus Ranoco Negro Jr., 74-year-old Conrado Cortes, 50-year-old Conrado dela Victoria and 56-year-old Alejandro Anana Arquillano.
"Those who surrender will be turned over to the police to coordinate their transfer to the nearest BuCor facility. In Cebu, that facility is in Abuyog, Leyte," Buenafe told Superbalita Cebu in Cebuano.
Batulan, the latest to surrender, turned himself in because he was worried about Duterte's threat.
He was released in October 2018, but he said he had yet to see his three children.
CIDG mandate
Batulan said when he was imprisoned in February 1990 for two cases of murder and one case of frustrated murder after he killed his neighbors, his children were aged five, three and two years old. He didn't say where his wife was.
He called on his children to visit him at the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) 7 stockade in Cebu City before he is transferred to Leyte.
"It may be the last time I will see them. I'm old. I don't know how much time I have left," Batulan said in Cebuano.
He had been planting vegetables outside his house in Barangay Tayud since his release.
He called on the President to consider his age and his record inside the New Bilibid Prison (NBP) in Muntinlupa City, where he said he had never committed an infraction.
The CIDG has been tasked to re-arrest freed heinous crime convicts who do not heed the President's order.
Major Nino Lope Briones of the CIDG 7 said they await further instructions from Camp Crame.
Briones said they won't launch their manhunt against freed convicts until after the President's 15-day ultimatum lapses. However, he said they don't have a list of convicts who were released based on the GCTA law yet.
He also said they've created a tracker team.
"Yes, we have a tracker team already. We've been monitoring several high-profile targets who had been released. But still, we're hoping they'll surrender within the 15-day period since we won't be going after just the freed convicts in Cebu. The manhunt will cover the entire Central Visayas," Briones said in Tagalog.
Call for clarification
He said they will be assisted by the Police Regional Office 7 and the Armed Forces of the Philippines Central Command.
In the case of the Chiong 7, Aznar and Uy were released last Aug. 16, while conductor Balansag and van driver Caño were released three days after, Aug. 19
Balansag and Caño didn't wait to be re-arrested and surrendered last week. They're now back inside the NBP.
Edgar Gica, Aznar's counsel, said he will send a letter to the President this week, asking for clarification on the statement Duterte made last Sept. 4.
Duterte, in his speech, demanded that all those freed by the BuCor based on the GCTA law "surrender within 15 days" or he would consider putting up a P1 million bounty on their heads, "dead or alive."
Aznar has not been seen in Cebu since his release, although there are unconfirmed reports that he and Uy plan to turn themselves in together.
Gica said they will ask for a written policy statement of the President so it can be the basis of their next action.
The lawyer wants the President to clarify his statement through a written order so they can use it in filing, adding that they cannot bring the statement to court because there is no paper.
"We don't have signed documents by the President which we can use and submit to the court so the Court will decide in defining the right of Aznar," Gica said. "We will see if we can use the newspaper accounts which we can base our issue for declaratory relief on."
Gica said it is the duty of the government, the Department of the Interior and Local Government and the Department of Justice to make laws clear for the public.
"Kung duna man gani sayop ana (GCTA system), di na sayop nilang Josman and other convicts (If there is a mistake in the law, it's not Josman and the other convicts' fault)," he said.
He said there was a signed release order so it was a valid document, which means Aznar and even the other released convicts did not violate any laws.
"They (Authorities) should have clarified that, di kay ang mga beneficiaries ang mag-suffer (instead of letting the beneficiaries suffer)," Gica said.
Gica said Aznar's family hired him, but he does not know if they've been communicating with him.
When asked about his advice for his client, he said it is Aznar's call, adding that there is a presumption of regularity in the issuance of his release order.
A total of 2,159 prisoners convicted of heinous crimes had been released under the GCTA law since Oct. 10, 2013. Some 445 were released during the administration of Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III, while 1,714 were set free during the present administration.
Of the 1,714 released during the Duterte administration, 748 were murder convicts, 745 were convicted for rape, 156 for illegal drugs, 32 for kidnapping, 23 for parricide, six for arson, two for bribery and two for other heinous crimes. FROM AYB OF SUPERBALITA CEBU / PJB, JJL

Power of the Primes Sludge Gallery and Review!
Shyly making his presence known in the Allspark Studios today is Cybertronian noncommittal introvert/extrovert, Sludge! He may be slow and not so clever, but will this calamity causer cause chaos or fit nicely on your shelf? Check out our review after the break to find out!
Sludge always seemed kinda dumb. He was seriously not intelligent in a way that made Grimlock seem like a genius long before "Grimlock's New Brain". Big, stupid, slow, and powerful, Sludge didn't really impress me. My friend "Kurt" had Sludge, but he was always getting his slow, oversized worm looking butt kicked by Grimlock, who didn't tolerate slackers on the team. I could go on, but I think you get my drift. I hated Sludge. I hated him with a rare passion for my age. I have since learned to hate him less, so let's see if the new toy is worthy of my forgiveness.
Sludge Brontosaurus Mode
Sludge did not get any slimmer in the gap between G1 and POTP, but he did get a few updates in the new sculpt. He has gained quite a few lines across various parts of his body, breaking the surfaces up and adding a more "tech" looking detail about him. His hind legs are still very reminiscent of the original figure, but the front ones take a big departure, due to the way they become the robot arms. These legs have a bend in them at the "elbow", still hide the robot fist, and connect via a ball joint. I almost wish they had found a way to use a form of ball joint on the hind legs, if for no reason other than parity. The shiny chrome that was formerly covered in transparent plastic on the neck and head have been replaced with a nice gold painted plastic, covered in transparent plastic. It still pulls off a similar effect, though I am hesitant to admit the gold does not look as nice as the chrome. I think it is because the "tech" details in the gold on the new figure are done in a straight-line style that I do not like. The original had more variety in the circuit details, and I think that the lack of that on the new figure is a detriment to it.
Sadly, there just isn't much to do with this guy that wasn't already done. Overall, the Brontosaurus mode is just a big, solid, underarticulated brute of a beast mode. I don't think it is any more fun than I did as a child. I fully accept that I am in the minority on this one, and I assume your opinion is not going to be swayed too much by my undying hate for it. Good for you. 😉
Sludge Robot Mode
Sludge fares much better when it comes to robot mode. I may have hated the original toy, and I may have hated the toon character, but you have to admit that there is something nice about the old cartoon designs. That is basically what we get with POTP Sludge, and I think that because of it, I may hate him a little less now. This figure has great proportions. He looks heroic, athletic, and less…slow. Everything he was in beast mode is flipped, and it really makes for a fun figure. He is less top heavy than Snarl, which allows him to pose with greater stability. He has a nice nostalgia inspired face sculpt, and the cartoon look is really highlighted while giving the character a somewhat more intelligent appearance. The wings are just normal grey plastic, and are not covered in any paint, but they look great and do not break up the look of the character by drawing attention via vac-metal, so I count this as another plus.
There is only one negative I can find on a phenomenal robot mode, and that is the head/neck articulation. The head is on a mushroom joint, which means it can only rotate laterally. He can't look up or down, even in limited fashion. This type of joint should NEVER be used as a head joint. EVER. To add insult to injury, not only is the head underarticulated, the mushroom joint on my Sludge came pre-stressed. I am already fearing a day when that magnificent face sculpt becomes permanently detached from the rest of his robotic glory. I should never have to fear this.
To sum it all up, Power of the Primes Sludge's robot mode makes me love a figure of a character I hate. It's just that good. Even the negative of the head cannot make me love his robot mode less, and he shall remain in robot mode on my shelf in perpetuity.
Sludge Combiner Limb Mode
If you go by the video game combined mode setup, Sludge forms the right leg of Volcanicus. Just like Snarl was a fitting leg mode for his bladed back plates, I think that having a foot/leg with the power to cause earthquakes is also appropriate. Volcanicus would using Sludge as a foot destroying weapon, slamming him down on his opponents' podiatric appendages and crushing their robo-phalanges. Sludge works well as a leg, though the Brontosaurus head does look a little strange peeking out from the front. Like Snarl, I have not used Sludge as much as an arm, but the result is similar in function with a slight improvement. Sludge's fist connector works fine, but I think I still prefer him as a leg. A leg he shall also stay.
I give Sludge a solid 7 out of 10. Sludge has a faithfully uninspiring Brontosaurus mode, balanced by a wonderfully articulated and proportioned robot mode. I think I can finally find a little love now for this character, since I can really enjoy the updated robot toy and ignore the Brontosaurus. I may not form Volcanicus much in the future, but I can see the value of having this figure in one's collection. Pick him up at your favorite retailer now!

When someone sticks a microphone in front of you, it is all too easy for the truth to out, despite one's media training. I have frequently been asked one particular question during interviews, but somehow this week I didn't nuance my answer. Confronted with the question 'who inspired you to become a scientist?' out came the unconsidered answer 'no one'. But it's true. I went into science without thinking about those great men – and of course they almost all were men – who had gone before, who had done such heroic things and whose splendid deeds I was supposed to want to emulate. I wanted to be a scientist because I was interested in the science; I didn't – at the time – delve into books about who had done what and when, so I could learn about those giants on whose shoulders I aspired to stand. Obviously names sank into my consciousness, how could they not, but they weren't flesh and blood, in my eyes, people whom I wanted to emulate. They were just names. That was obviously very short-sighted of me and perhaps I should be embarrassed to admit it now, but my mind goes a blank when I'm asked to name a hero/heroine from my childhood past.
So, no one directly inspired me. Role models also came later, much later. As I slowly matured into a practicing scientist, as opposed to someone who broke everything I touched (which at the start of my PhD I most certainly did), I started to look more carefully at the way those more senior around me acted, led and mentored, as well as did their science. Perhaps then, for the first time, I started to feel inspired. I have written in the past about a couple of inspirational gentlemen I was fortunate enough to be encouraged and nurtured by – but these were people, Sam Edwards and Pierre-Gilles de Gennes – I got to know when I was already an independent researcher. I'm curious to know if I'm unusual in lacking an idol from the past on whom to fixate as I decided my career choice, or if such inspiring individuals are more talked about than real – I'd like to hear your comments on this, so maybe I can give a more coherent response the next time someone approaches me with the dreaded mike. I certainly got the impression my interviewer's jaw metaphorically dropped when I let slip my blunt response.
For some people it is the spokes-men and –women for science who jump out of our TV screens who are so important. In my case that could have been Gerald Durrell or Desmond Morris (and later David Attenborough), but these were in the wrong field to be very influential on me as an aspiring physicist. Perhaps the next generation of physicists will indeed say that it was Brian Cox who made all the difference to them as teenagers when making career choices after having seen his series; or maybe it will have been watching Jocelyn Bell Burnell speak so quietly and impressively in the Beautiful Minds programme about her that opened their eyes to the possibilities for women in science. Clearly the more science that is on the TV, the more that possibility is there for early inspiration. It is for that reason that a year or two back there was so much discussion about 'where is the female Brian Cox?', but I wasn't convinced then by that argument and I guess that is still my position.
I have heard many people, and more particularly women, say how important role models are or have been to them. These, I suspect, are not great individuals from the past, or even those who smile at them from the TV, but the living people they see a few notches further up their chosen career path. It would be nice to think the humanising interviews that Jim Al Khalili has been carrying out for his Life Scientific radio programme will broaden how people perceive some senior scientists and offer them a greater choice of impressive researchers to look up to. Too often such people can seem featureless (or perhaps I mean characterless) if only viewed on a far distant podium at some huge conference. I think this radio series has been able to present a wonderful mix of the passion scientists have for their field of research, with their own individual voices discussing their sometimes tortuous career paths. Maybe some school children will hear these programmes and be able to say in future years about how Professor X inspired them when they heard them being interviewed. Perhaps that is precisely what I didn't get: a feeling of the scientists whose names I read in textbooks as real people. So, is that a lack in me? Or do many of you equally feel the honest answer to
'who inspired you?' is 'no one'?
If you are not a frequent reader of society columns, Hello and the like, you may want to skip the rest of this post. It contains shameless name dropping but no solution to the tricky question of how Sherlock Holmes' death was faked at the end of the last BBC series.
The occasion of this rather off-the-cuff interview was an event to launch the Discovery Channel's new series, starring Stephen Hawking. Known as 'Stephen Hawking's Grand Design', it has a lot of physics (from Galileo and Newton to String Theory), but remarkably little biology. It identifies a number of Hawking's heroes and illustrates them with little vignettes. I'm afraid Hawking makes some rather stark statements including 'Philosophy is Dead' and 'I think science can explain the Universe without the need for God' – which are likely to raise some eyebrows; the former in particular was not met with universal enthusiasm by those attending the event. The first programme goes out next week (September 13th on the Discovery Channel) in the UK, but I have had the privilege of viewing all three episodes already, by way of 'homework', before I engaged in the evening's other entertainment: a panel discussion.
This panel consisted of Martin Rees, Will Self, Adam Rutherford and myself, all pushed and pulled into some semblance of order by Dara O Briain. The topic of our debate was
What will be the most important questions for science in the next 40 years?
You'll be able to judge that that was an easy subject to construct light badinage around to an audience of newspaper feature editors and the like. It seemed, in advance, a very daunting challenge. In fact, I really enjoyed myself. We were a very diverse bunch, each with our own particular take on things. Adam Rutherford seemed to feel slightly perturbed to be the 'token biologist', as he put it, but Martin Rees and I both saw biological challenges going to be absolutely key to the future.
It was of course a publicity event for the programme rather than serious science. But, as one of the Channel's senior executives put it to me, they want their programmes to draw people in who aren't scientists and of course part of that is getting people talking about it. It has already been pointed out to me through Twitter (thank you Stephen!) that you can find me lurking in the pages of the Radio Times online, posed for all intents and purposes as if on a red carpet at some celebrity do – the celebrity of course being Stephen Hawking. Indeed, you can see me standing shoulder to shoulder not only with Dara O'Briain but also Benedict Cumbernatch, who is doing the programme's voiceover. And no, I didn't ask him how his death was faked at the end of the last series of Sherlock Holmes. Not being a celebrity-watcher (even if I did watch the Sherlock Holmes series) I was still concentrating on the serious side of things, engaging Andrew Miller, chair of the Commons Science and Techology Select Committee, in discussion about the need to get scientists and policy makers closer together.
So, did anyone inspire you in your youth? I am looking forward to a lively comment stream – don't let me down!

Immortal, invisible, God only wise…
The Granddaughter has a name for it. She calls it the "God Star". She generally colors it in yellow. She sets it on buildings. She sets it floating in the sky. Yesterday, she set it attached to a huge pink and yellow heart with two giant Easter eggs on either side of it, and the beginning of a rainbow overhead (she got sidetracked). Seriously, you have to love how a child sees things. Maybe it is because I taught school for over 40 years, or maybe it is just because I am hopeful for the next generation, or maybe it is because my father wrote me one letter in my whole life and in it he said: "And believe it or not, most of that light comes from the children". I only know I want to see things as my Father(s) see things.
"Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me." Matt 18:3-5
God has been bringing the "God Star" to my thoughts a lot the past few days. The news, obviously, has been a catalyst. The reports of crucifixions in today's world seem unthinkable. Even be-headings takes on a nightmarish quality as I try to pinch myself awake. I pray. I look up. I wonder. I read more and more of the WORD. And…as I hug the Grands ever tighter, I pray some more that I will "become like little children" in all things.
Most blessèd, most glorious, the Ancient of Days…
Our minister has spent over a month teaching us to pray using the pattern that Rabbe Yeshua set before us in Luke 11. You know – "The Our Father" one – the one we were taught to memorize on our knees with our parents – the one we recited every Sunday in church – the one that comes to mind whenever we are fearful, sad, angry, in pain. The one we say by rote without even thinking about what those words mean. It is just something we say, and sometimes, sadly, it has no meaning at all as we look at the clock and wonder how soon we can leave church and get busy with the important stuff in the rest of our day. However, times are changing, and the words are becoming more than just words.
"Forgive us our sins, for [as] we also forgive everyone who sins against us…" Lk 11:4
I'm smiling because we are only half way through our study in this model prayer, and we started it a month ago. With the pastor's words in my head, I thought a lot about what Jesus was saying in this small section of how He was teaching us to pray. Asking God to forgive me for my sins is a daily occurrence. Although I've gotten control of many things, there are oh so many more to go. Resentment. Doubts. Fears. Envy. Old trespasses, grudges, hurts that I keep imagining or nursing deep in my memory banks. Forgiveness of those who sin against us is not as easy as just saying the words aloud or to ourselves. Course, Satan is only too glad to remind us by using a smell, a slight, a piece of music, a picture to stir our emotions and amplify those old hurts right back to the fore front of our mind. None of any of which is easy for me.
"Almighty, victorious, thy great Name we praise."
However during church, this visual popped in my head. Forgiveness is literally my granddaughter's "God Star". Vertically, Our Father forgives us – totally – completely – repristination. It is a unending, A wide, golden ray that stretches all the way from Him, breaking the sin barrier of this fallen world, and blessing us in its encompassing, golden waves. Our forgiveness becomes another golden ray, slightly less wide because our faith is still weak, that reaches horizontally to those around us on this plane. If we forgive others as He forgives us, the "God Star" is complete, and we become the blessing to the world as Rabbe Yeshua modeled it for us. Once again, it is not easy – especially when it is someone we love that hurts us. Yet, isn't that what we did when we allowed Christ Jesus to be crucified? We hurt Our Father deeply, and still – He wipes it completely away with His Grace. Can we not do likewise?
"Father, hallowed be your name, Your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread. Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us…"

Generally, construction job environments pose a number of risks and dangers to the workers that deal with them, even road construction. Such environments are dangerous because of a number of reasons. One of the most common reasons include the fact that most construction jobs entail continuous physical work. This also implies that objects can fall on the workers anytime and can injure them. Aside from the workers, the civilians or non-workers surrounding or just passing by the construction sites can also be put to danger or they can also put to danger the lives of the road construction workers. For instance, when construction workers work in the middle of the road to seal the hole in the cement, repair a damaged phone line, or just work on the side of the street, they could easily be hit by traffic at any given time. These are just some of the many reasons why it is crucial for employees to wear road construction safety vests for them to avoid being injured. Aside from that, when they wear them, they also make themselves more visible to drivers passing them by while they are working. Most safety vests come in bright reflective colors such as yellows and oranges that enable the workers to be easily seen from a distance. When a worker will be easily seen, then he or she will have lower chances getting hit by car because now they can see them. Click here now!
According to recent statistics, construction road side deaths and injuries are increasing in numbers also because there are now more people who drive their own vehicles. By even using the most basic worker safety product such as the safety vest, hundreds to thousands of those recorded deaths and injuries can be prevented totally. When workers make sure to use these safety vests, they will be able to avoid getting hurt seriously. Also, employers will not have to face lawsuits when something happens to their employees just because they failed to provide them with some safety vests. Depending on the severity of the injury, employers can pay thousands of dollars for the medical bills as well as be sued in the end for negligence. So, why should you go into all of these troubles and expenses when you can avoid all of them together with the use of these simple road construction safety vests?
What is great about these safety vests is the fact that they are not just affordable but also they are very comfortable to use. When it comes to the appropriate attired of construction workers, of course, it is essential that their safety needs are being kept in mind. However, this does not mean that comfort should be sacrificed. It should be kept in mind as well, click here!

Rural markets drive growth despite drought3 min read . Updated: 30 Nov 2009, 10:14 PM IST
Rural markets drive growth despite drought
In spite of a deficient monsoon this year, which led to 316 districts in 13 states being declared drought-hit, rural markets have proven to be resilient, marketeers say.
For instance, Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd (M&M), the country's largest maker of tractors, has grown 20%. As many as 40% of new customers at Bharti Airtel Ltd came from the countryside. India's top mobile phone services firm said its growth in villages outpace urban markets.
"Agricultural prices are growing and agricultural output has been growing very well over the last five years. Yes, there was a drought, but agricultural prices have risen and so rural incomes are not going to decline," said Adi Godrej, chairman of the diversified Godrej Group that includes business interests in consumer and agro products.
"Rural discretionary income is growing dramatically. Rural consumers are interested in buying all kinds of consumer products, durables, and that's not surprising at all," Godrej said.
Godrej has been part of a rural immersion programme involving senior management across his group. He visited two villages in Maharashtra, meeting consumers in their homes.
Tanya Dubash, Godrej's executive director and president (marketing), said: "We want to triple our direct rural reach. In the next three years, we want to get rural sales equal to that of urban."
Price and reach are key elements to a rural marketing strategy. M&M recently launched a tractor priced at only Rs1.5 lakh. The portfolio of Hero Honda Motors Ltd, market leader in motorcycles, leans heavily in rural markets towards its cheaper entry level 100cc models.
To be sure, marketeers are doing a lot more than just launching inexpensive products targeted at rural India. The amount of liquidity in rural markets has gone up due to government intervention, but marketeers are also supporting their rural customers with better financing options.
Mahindra and Mahindra Financial Services Ltd, the financial services subsidiary of M&M, provides farmers with loans for tractors. Anjanikumar Choudhari, president (farm equipment) at M&M, said that while only 10% of rural households own tractors, almost 35% use them, relying on rentals. This provides an opportunity to the firm.
Hero Honda, too, takes consumer finance seriously and has tied up with not less than 50 rural and cooperative banks that extend credit to rural customers to buy its two-wheelers.
Another big challenge in rural markets is getting product and brand messages across to audiences in areas where firms cannot rely only on mainstream advertising.
"A large part of rural India even today does not have TV (sets). You need activation, sampling, and for the consumer to see your product," said Dalip Sehgal,managing director at Godrej Consumer Products Ltd.
A similar line of thought motivated Hero Honda to launch a separate rural business segment in 2007 under its Har Gaon, Har Aangan (every village, every courtyard) initiative.
"The activities we've been doing range from an opinion leader contact programme to mapping the rural customer to leveraging fairs and festivals, and doing special activities," said Anil Dua, senior vice-president, sales and marketing. "These are not just in the area of sales, but also in the area of awareness generation, post-sales service and parts availability."
The improvements in infrastructure, particularly roads, have made rural India far less isolated than it used to be. This spells good news for companies such as Hero Honda.
"Since public transport is yet to keep pace with the development of roads, two-wheeler ownership has become a necessity," Dua said.
The other aspect that has surprised marketeers is the willingness of rural consumers to reach for premium choices. In the case of Airtel, rural customers are interested in far more than just voice and have been subscribing to value-added services tailored to rural needs.
"Language is a key enabler of this opportunity," said Atul Bindal, president (mobile services). "The second aspect is the context in which the phone is used in the rural sector. For example, if it is a local artisan or worker, if we can actually provide value-added services that are of use to them, we have found the adoption rates very high."
An intangible aspect of the rural marketing success story is the sense of optimism that permeates much of rural India, executives say. Positive sentiment and disposable incomes have gone a long way in ensuring that these markets remain lucrative and attractive destinations to those selling goods and services in the countryside.
Storyboard airs today at 7pm on CNBC-TV18.

Megalith Games: Veränderung an der Spitze
Bei den Machern von Godslayer gibt es Veränderungen an der Unternehmensspitze.
Ahoi everyone!
Today I have some very important news for all you guys out there following Megalith Games and Godslayer.
As you know, I have invested a lot of time and passion in creating Godslayer over the past years, and I would gladly continue with that journey, but I am afraid that I have to tell you that I have recently resigned from Megalith Games as a managing director. But don´t panic! There´s a solution!
First let me explain why it has come to that decision:
Megalith needs a single leader to avoid the deadlock in some issues which we have recently experienced. Managing a company with two equal leaders is not so easy, especially when both are so passionate about the success of the company with their own vision. For that reason I am stepping down as partner and co-director.
Since David and I are both really dedicated to Megalith Games and have spent countless hours on developing all that comes with Godslayer, this was no easy decision to be made! But we have agreed that this is the best solution for the both of us and the company's sake.
While David is continuing to successfully run Megalith Games, I will have the full license to produce other games based in the Godslayer universe, such as board games and card games. This way it will allow us to produce more content for the Godslayer universe – David with Megalith Games, and I with my board games company Voodoo Games. We are parting on good terms, and we are determined to continue a positive, successful collaboration for the future.
I will surely miss being part of Megalith Games but having the chance to continue working on a miniatures board game for Godslayer is great comfort for me and I won´t lose all the work I have put in this project.
I hope that you can understand our decision and that you will continue to support Megalith Games as much as you did in the past years! Of course we have to rearrange a few things but we will try to manage this without causing any delays in the development of Godslayer.
My role in the company has been strongly focussed on the development of the core rules system and game balancing, as well as all graphic design and web-related tasks, packing and shipping. The rules have been complete already for several years, and the graphic and web tasks will be outsourced, shipping will be managed by David our a possible new partner for the company.
David will take care of everything and is determined to continue with this journey even more dedicated then ever! So we think it is a positive move for everyone concerned, including all you Godslayer players.
I would like to take this chance to thank you all for your awesome support in the past years! I have had the chance to meet a lot of dedicated players in person and it was an awesome experience seeing Godslayer come to live! I will surely miss all that but I also have the hope that we can shift part of the fun and your support over to Voodoo Games so that we can develop another great game in the Godslayer universe! So thank you all so much!!! Maybe our ways cross once again!
As a last note, David and I have agreed the next steps that David should undertake to continue with a successful game before I resigned:
• Developing the releases for wave 2 (test-players will soon receive revised profiles of all wave-2 minis).
• Launching a marketing campaign aimed at expanding the number of Godslayer players greatly.
• Preparing a Battlebox for Godslayer which will contain a Halodynes and Banebrood warband as well as a printed core rules.
• Re-sculpting some weaker early miniatures from our range and adding additional troopers for starter-box units.
• Upgrading kits to reduce parts and replace thin spears as well as using new casting techniques and better metal.
• Developing campaigns and other rules additions.
So hopefully the future is still bright for the Godslayer universe!.
I really hope you guys out there are not too shocked by that news and that you understand our decision. Thanks for all the great years and your understanding!

Four facts proving archery is the most interesting Olympic sport
With the Olympics rapidly approaching, many eyes will be looking to see if Usain Bolt can remain the fastest man in the world, or whether Team USA's basketball all-stars can add yet another gold to their extensive collection.
But what about the sport of archery? For many, this event flies under the radar, but it a beautiful sport to watch, requiring unbelievable amounts of skill and grace.
Archery is one of activities available on our school residential trips, and we have taken a look at four facts you might not have known about the sport, which might just make you want to tune in when the Rio Games start later this year.
Olympic history
Archery first debuted in the Olympics in Paris, 1900. However, it was a rather different affair than it is today. The competition lasted for a total 44 days, from May to August, and featured 19 events.
Two of these were known as "popinjay" events, in which a bird (a plastic tube with stuck on feathers) was placed on top of a pole and set at varying distances.
Captain Kirk is a keen archer
Although he never quite made it to the Olympic Games, William Shatner, aka Captain Kirk from Star Trek, loves a spot of archery. He is also a founding member of the famous Fred Bear sporting club in Detroit.
Elsewhere in Hollywood, Oscar-winning actress Geena Davis got even closer than Shatner, having reached the semi-finals of the US Olympic trials in the year 2000, despite only taking up the sport the previous year!
The most versatile female athlete of all-time
Having five Wimbledon singles titles to your name is no mean feat, but that wasn't quite enough for Lottie Dod, who then turned to archery and won a silver medal at the 1908 Olympic Games. The archery skill gene clearly ran in the family, as her brother William took gold in the men's event at the same Olympics.
Dod also won the women's British amateur golf title at Troon in 1904 and regularly completed the Cresta Run, an ice skeleton racing toboggan track located in Switzerland.
Can South Korea be toppled?
South Korea have long been the powerhouse nation when it comes to Olympic archery, with 34 medals (19 of which are gold) to their name. But how have they become so dominant at the sport?
Their success has been credited to a rather extreme training regime, which has been designed to conquer fear, according to women's coach Seo Geo Won. This training includes sending their archers platform diving and bungee jumping. They also hold events in crowded stadiums, in order to help them cope with pressure and learn how to react in the heat of the moment.

A CurtainUp Review
Russian Transport
By Elyse Sommer
Both Rudolpho, Miller's "submarine" (a once common term for illegal immigrants), and Sheffer's Boris are handsome hunks. It so happens that hunky Morgan Spector, Russian Transport's Boris also played Rudolpho in the last revival of Miller's play (review) . But that's where these plays part company. Rudolpho is a victim, Boris is the villain of Sheffer's piece.
And what a villain he turns out to be. His malevolence is deep rooted in his Russian past. His brother-in-law Misha (Daniel Oreskes) would have done well not to go along with his wife Diana's (Janeane Garofalo) wish to let her brother come to New York. Though Diana isn't evil, her pragmatism and aggressive hold on her children nevertheless makes her a secondary villain. Her willingness not ask questions about 18-year old Alex's (Raviv Ullman) extra contributions to the family's precarious financial situation is essentially well-intentioned, as is the favor she accepts from Boris, but her actions underscore the old cliche that "you can't be a little bit pregnant."
Since suspense is a critical element, I'll keep plot details to a minimum. The family is, as noted in the author's introductory note to her script, one "of noise" whose interactions tend to be hot and hasty rather than restrained. In short, they don't hesitate to express their feelings. The parents came to Brooklyn when Alex was still a toddler and around the time the Soviet Union came completely apart, and that note notwithstanding, there are things in the parents past that they never talk about. They are not highly educated professionals, like some of the earlier Russians allowed to emigrate to America, but strivers on a bumpy path to prosperity.
Fourteen-year-old Mira (Sarah Steele) is studious and likely to be the first member of the family to make it to college though she is not too tethered to her studies for some after school activities that elude her controlling mother. Alex, has less time for studies since, he's been enlisted to work as a driver in Misha's car service business and also has a job with Verizon.
The volatile if it's on your lung it's on your tongue family dynamic makes for some sharply ironic interchanges between the siblings and with their parents. Both kids are smitten with the tall, dark and handsome uncle's mysterious charm — until they've gotten caught up in his devious net.
It doesn't take long for Boris to take advantage of Diana's big sister affection to do her a Faustian favor that will impact ominously on everyone, most especially Alex. The Chekhovian prop that comes into play several times doesn't have to be fired to inflict a devastating wound on this family.
New Group founder Scott Elliott has directed Sheffer's drama with well-paced flair on a two-level set by Derek McLane that utilizes the Acorn Theater's wide stage to let us see the cramped home as well as the car service's office. Peter Kaczorowski's lighting takes us outside the house often enough to give us a glimpse into Boris's mysterious work is all about.
Mr. Elliot maintains the play's tension and draws animated, believable performances from the four-ember cast. Morgan Spector is charismatic yet scary as Boris. Raviv Ullman makes an impressive debut as Alex and Sarah Steele deftly handles three small roles in addition to that of Mira, the teen determined to escape her mother's "KGB" rule. As the parents who have been toughened by their pre-Brooklyn years, Janeane Garofalo, best known as a stand-up comic and small and large screen performer, is aptly abrasive and the always reliable Daniel Oreskes is fine as the overworked, overstressed Misha.
All the actors have, with the help of Dialect Coach Doug Paulson, mastered enough Russian phrases to lend authenticity to this story. Since I don't know any Russian, I can't comment on the accuracy of the accents. The dialogue, especially that by the heavily accented characters could stand clearer articulation, at least in the first act.
While there's nothing particularly Jewish about Sheffer's family, she does establish their ethnic affiliation with some deftly inserted dialogue; for example, a reference to a bat-mitzvah and Diana answering Mira complaint that it's not fair to make her give up her bedroom to the soon to arrive Boris with "Fair? Your grandmother was raped by Nazis. This is fair, this life? "
To go back to my initial comparison between Russian Transport and A View From the Bridge, Ms. Sheffer weakens an interesting and quite gripping story with an insufficiently developed, lazy ending with only the suddenly bathed in red stage to hint at what lies ahead.
While Arthur Miller was at times guilty of too much melodrama, he did end those melodramas with a conclusive bang. Sheffer, typical of many of her playwriting contemporaries, ends her play with a whimper rather than a really satisfying bang.

There are many ways to transform your home from the inside out. While there is no shortage of opinions on how to use throw pillows to make a living room to the next level, the living room is not the only area in the home where living is done.
The kitchen is not the only place where cooking and eating is done. A garden is a place where all of those things and more are done. It's a place that is whatever you make it. Here are a few ideas that can help jumpstart that process:
An interior design hack for creating the illusion of a larger space is to utilise mirrors. Why should that stop inside? Strategically placing a weatherproof mirror by your garden fence can not only create focal interest but can also make an outdoor space look a lot bigger!
Mirrors can also be used to harness natural light to make the outdoor space all the more appealing.
Lay a New Lawn
When it comes to fashion, people like clothes, but they loooove accessorising their outfits! If you have a nice foundation, then you can go wild and have fun with accessories. Gardens are no different.
For those with a nice, compact lawn, skip the stress of constant upkeep and bringing tools and mess into that space. Get a nice, new lawn that'll stay green all year and allows focus on the seasonal potted plants that will really make the space feel dynamic and fun.
Create an Outdoor Living Room
Sharing time with friends and loved ones is precious. And hanging out with friends in cool places can get very expensive, very quickly with the costs of food and drink (emphasis drinks). So why not create that cool space at home?
Use the back garden as a way to create a fun, outdoor living space for both relaxing and entertaining.
Use mismatched dining chairs to create a chic gathering space. Check out YouTube tutorials and learn how to combine weatherproof cushion covers and old pallets to make a sofa. If the internet has taught the world anything, it's that there are few limits to what can be made with creativity and effort. I
Creative Planting
This is what can make the outdoor living space really shine. Many fond memories might be made from sitting under old, beautiful trees, but the best impressions are made by using planters creatively for fresh and varied outdoor looks.
Colourful, vibrant seasonal plants can be featured, adjusted or relocated by using temporary planters. This allows for the outdoor space to be customised for any occasion.
And the best part is that the planters themselves are part of the decorating fun. Use old jars, tins, buckets, wooden boxes — anything that will hold soil, really.
Don't be afraid to experiment. With creative planting, everything can be easily customised and affordably achieved.
Ultimately, the easiest way to transform an outdoor space is to set aside narrow viewpoints of how to use the space. Don't worry about what the outdoor living space should be, only what it could be.

This cyclist was riding at night on poorly lit streets. With a passenger perched precariously on the back. With both of them in black clothes. With no lights or reflectors. Carrying a full carrier bag in one hand. With frost on the ground. Down a steep hill.
Oh and (unsurprisingly) they were wobbling a bit.

I figured I better post these before Norah turns 4 months.
2 months old.
She was 12 lbs at her 2 month appointment. My little chub. We call her Norah Bear because she is soft, squishy, and cuddle like teddy bears, but also she gets angry real fast when you don't give her what she wants like a real bear. It's so cute when Luke calls her Norah Bear. :) She's smiling a lot and is starting to settle into a routine.
3 months
Even more squishy. She is really showing her personality. Smiling, talking so much, giggling which melts my heart. She still gives most people she doesn't see often her super serious face. :) But when you get her to smile it lights up her whole face. :) She has also mastered rolling over this month. Whenever you put her down she will roll immediately to her tummy.
And for comparison. Both at 2 months…
and at 3 months….
Oh my sweet babies! Some fun recent pictures of them.
And lastly a picture of that beautiful smile she is so good at hiding. :)
Here's to late night blogging after the babes are finally asleep.
Thanks for stopping by!

Here's part one of U.S. Catholic magazine's February 2010 interview with St. Louis University ethicist—and suburban mom—Julie Hanlon Rubio. Look for part two next week.
Julie Hanlon Rubio's work as an ethicist at Saint Louis University has drawn directly from her real-life experience of trying to make the works of mercy and justice as central to her family as homework and sports. She felt oddly like a pioneer. Even while studying for her Ph.D., she says, "my professors were visibly not happy with me when I turned up pregnant once and then twice. It's not what theologians do." Hanlon Rubio begs to differ.
"I don't know that we have many models—which is fine, really," she says. Drawing from the marriage liturgy, sacramental theology, lay movements such as the Christian Family Movement, and adding Catholic social teaching on the family, Rubio stitched together her family ethics. "If I really believe that I am trying to form my kids as disciples," she says, "then I have to ask: How does each activity contribute to that?" Rubio is the author of Family Ethics: Practices for Christians (Georgetown, 2010) and A Christian Theology of Marriage and Family (Paulist, 2003)
You've said that typical suburban Catholic parents feel a certain emptiness in their lives. Why?
It comes out of my own experience of hearing that everyone is busy, which means that so many interactions are on the surface. Continue reading

The Screw-FIX adaptor is a threaded metal connector which allows connection to Quattro Flue Liner by screwing on to the Flex, giving a gas tight seal. The other end allows connection to single wall pipe at the base of the stack.
Connects 125mm (5 inch) Quattro Flue Liner to 125mm (5 inch) or Connects 150mm (6 inch) Quattro Flue Liner to 150mm (6 inch) Black Pipe / Vitreous Enamel / 1mm Stainless / Single Wall flue at the bottom of the chimney stack.
Made from 316 grade stainless steel, it has a pressed thread that allows it to be screwed to Quattro Flue Liner giving a gas tight seal. It has integral drain holes to let the condensates flow back into the flue.
1.Connect the bottom of the Flue Liner to the adaptors twin wall section by screwing the adaptor on to the Flue Liner as you would an ordinary nut and bolt, you can apply a small amount of High Temperature Silicone Sealant to ensure a gas tight connection.
You can now conect the Adaptor using Fire Cement or High Temperature Silicone Sealant to either your appliance (if the appliance is a solid fuel appliance then you must have a least 600mm of flue pipe before this connection) or Black Pipe / Vitreous Enamel / Single Wall Stove Pipe.
If the gap is large between the Adaptor and the pipe you can seal using a combination of Fire Cement / Silicone and Fire Rope.
It is recommended that chimneys serving solid fuel appliances be swept and maintained as frequently as necessary but at least once a year.

Now I'm here for my next criteria. Amount of Special Ingredient Use.
EDIT ADD: Living in the city, with options, you can find most anything. But can you afford those options? I found some Vegan butter for $2.89, which is cheap for Vegan butter, but I can't really afford "fats" outside the gallon of off brand vegetable oil I buy. I'm thinking of country vegans who don't have options or budget conscious vegans in the city when I ask this question.
What is a rare or special ingredient to you guys? Or perhaps just prohibitively expensive? Sometimes I see a tasty sounding recipe and realize I don't have 2 or more of the ingredients. Vegan Egg Wrappers? Would have to make from scratch and this book doesn't tell me how. Hot chili paste? Where would I get that ingredient, an obscure local store or online? Unicorn tears?? But those are soooo expensive!
I may have missed a few ingredients. You are welcome to comment, stating any I haven't listed. I really did try to list most of them though!
Total Fail, LJ. All I wanted to do was put the poll under a cut, and it took all the POLL info out.
And it won't turn the above into a link no matter what I do to it. Copy/paste in URL bar, and it works. But LJ is supposed to turn anything with an HTTP on it into a link, whether it works or not. I've also tried typing in -a href- stuff. No go.
I don't want to lose the comments below, so if people who wish to take the poll are willing to copy paste, please do so.
