Questions & Answers
Myth – I will lose my home
Fact – If there is little or no equity in your property, you will not lose it and even if there is, you may be given the opportunity to find someone to purchase that equity, such as a friend or family member. Most landlords are not informed of your bankruptcy unless you have rent arrears.
Myth – I'll have to stand before a judge in court
Fact – You may need to see a Judge but this will be in his chambers not in a large court room.
Myth – I'll never get a bank account or credit again
Fact – Several high street banks offer bank accounts to bankrupts and there are other alternatives such as pre-paid debit cards. Your credit rating will be adversely affected but if you are in arrears to your creditors, this will already have happened. You will not be allowed more than £500 of credit during your bankruptcy but once discharged your credit rating can be rebuilt.
Myth – My name will be in the local paper and my neighbours will find out
Fact – Your name will appear in the London Gazette and on the Bankruptcy Register, available online but unless yours was a high profile case, or of public interest it is unlikely to generate any local publicity. Some local papers do publish court listings but this is not as common as it once was.
Myth – My employer will be informed and I will lose my job
Fact – There are very few professions where bankruptcy will affect your job. These are generally limited to professional roles such as Company Directors, Solicitors, Accountants, Estate Agents and Members of Parliament or the FSA. Your employer will not be routinely informed unless you work in one of the affected professions and the only change at work is likely to be your tax code changing to nil unless an Income Payment Order is made.

Cyberbullying Legislation Applied to Siblings in Estate Dispute
Sibling rivalry coupled with the loss of a parent and an actual or perceived impropriety of one sibling in handling his or her estate can turn even the closest siblings into sparring adversaries.
While such emotionally charged disputes often become heated, most siblings are able to maintain civility in their dealings.
What happens when one sibling takes it too far? Can the courts step in to reel that sibling in?
According to a recent ruling of the Nova Scotia Supreme Court, Nova Scotia (Public Safety) v. Lee, 2015 NSSC 71, they may have expanded powers to prevent or restrict behavior that amounts to Cyberbullying.
The facts of this case involve a particularly heated dispute which arose between a brother ("Mr. Lee") and sister ("Ms. Murray") in relation to their late mother's estate. Prior to her death, their mother had been diagnosed with brain cancer. Ms. Murray and her family moved in with their mother and cared for her throughout her illness. Several months prior to her death, their mother attended upon a solicitor and executed a new will which left her entire estate to Ms. Murray upon her death. Upon learning that their mother had left everything to his sister, Mr. Lee began what the court referred to as a "progression of online abuse" against Ms. Murray by way of text messages, email and public Facebook posts.
The aggressive text messages began when Ms. Murray refused to vacate the mother's home, and included messages such as:
"[y]ou are dead to me get your lying manipulative abusive [a—] out of that [f—g] house or I will send the RCMP."
Mr. Lee also sent emails threatening to inform her employer of her alleged misdeeds with respect to their mother's estate and began posting a series of public messages to his Facebook wall including:
"Does anybody out there in Facebook land think it is ok for the caregiver of a 67 year old lady dying of brain tumours & loaded up with narcotics, take that 67 year old lady into the lawyers office days (literally days) before the lady dies of those same brain tumours and have the lady sign everything she owns (and some stuff she didn't own) over to the caregiver???? Because that is exactly what my sister did And [sic], any of you cowards in my family that read this and then go "tsk tsk" behind my back and leave my Mother dead and undefended should be as ashamed of yourselves as Veronica should be."
Ms. Murry filed a complaint with CyberSCAN who asked Mr. Lee to remove the offensive comments and formally apologize to Ms. Murray. Mr. Lee responded with the following Facebook post:
"I said my sister was a lying, manipulative fraudulent thief….. The Cyberscan people said I really should apologize, so here goes, and it is heartfelt and sincere. I am truly deeply and sincerely sorry that my sister is a lying, manipulative, fraudulent thief."
In response, the Nova Scotian Director of Public Safety applied for a Cyberbullying Prevention Order against Mr. Lee pursuant to s. 26D(1) of the Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods Act, S.N.S. 2006, c. 6.
Upon hearing the case, the Court granted the Cyber Prevention Order and ordered that Mr. Lee delete all the online comments made to or about his sister and that he refrain from such conduct going forward.
Canadian laws are evolving to protect against all forms of Cyberbullying. In 2013, Nova Scotia introduced the Cyber-Safety Act, S.N.S. 2013, c.2, which defines Cyberbullying broadly and provides wide ranging powers to the Director of Public Safety under the Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods Act, S.N.S. 2006, c. 6 to provide recourse for behavior such as Mr. Lee's.
While, Nova Scotia is the first province to enact such sweeping legislation, the other provinces are starting to take note of the important role such legislation can play. As such, while no equivalent law currently exists in Ontario, it could soon land on Ontario's legislative agenda.
A useful Fact Sheet outlining the Cyberbullying legislation that currently exists across Canada can be found here.
Thank you for reading,

Bayern unveil new boss Pep
Updated | By Trevor Cramer
New coach Pep Guardiola on Monday vowed to maintain the treble success Bayern Munich enjoyed under predecessor Jupp Heynckes, as the Spaniard was officially unveiled as the Champions League winners' new coach.
Guardiola's appointment, announced in January, has created considerable hype in Germany, amid hopes that the man who took Barcelona to 14 titles in four seasons will bring glamour to the Bundesliga.
"At the top clubs, you are always under pressure but I believe in myself and I accept this challenge without a problem," the 42-year-old said in German, which he has been studying for the last six months.
"I will, of course, make changes, but I want to keep the level that Bayern has already achieved."
Guardiola has his work cut out to match last season's achievements when Bayern won the treble of European, cup and league titles, plus the pre-season German Super Cup, under Heynckes.
"I have had no contact with Jupp Heynckes but I hope to speak with him in the next few days," said Guardiola.
"I have a lot of respect for his achievements and it would be good to have his opinion.
"It's an honour to be his successor, especially after the way his team played last season."
Having only flown into Munich with his family on Sunday night after his year-long sabbatical in New York, Guardiola spoke mainly German during the hour-long press conference, but also broke into Spanish, English and Italian.
"I have lived for the last year in New York and it's not the optimal place to learn German but it's a gift, a joy to be here," he said.
"The decision to come to the club was based on its history and its players.
"It's a fresh challenge for me, my time in Barcelona was wonderful, but I needed a new challenge.
"Bayern Munich gave me the opportunity, I am prepared to give my best. I'm ready."
Guardiola, whose first training sessions takes place on Wednesday evening, repeatedly stressed that he needed time to get comfortable with the new language, his new home and his new team.
He has brought four of his backroom staff from his Barcelona days in assistant coach Domenec Torrent, scout and video analyst Carles Planchart and fitness coach Lorenzo Buenaventura, plus advisor Estiarte Manel.
"It's great that these people were willing to follow me. This is a challenge also for the families, I hope that we manage it well," said Guardiola.
A former Spanish water polo international, Manel is Guardiola's confidant.
"He has participated in many Olympic Games. I like to take his influences from other sports, he will help us," said Guardiola of Manel.
Guardiola admitted that he was nervous as he faced about 300 reporters but was relaxed enough to crack a few jokes.
"Perhaps my family should move in with me at Saebener Strasse (Bayern's training ground), because I'll be living there for the next six months," he said.
He also joked that while he had watched all of Bayern's games last season at his New York apartment, he had not been allowed to come to Germany any earlier "because my German teacher is a Borussia Dortmund fan".
Guardiola, however, called for calm amid high expectations for the Bavarian giants.
"Give me a bit of time, step by step, my German isn't good enough, but I'll try to reach a high level," he said.
"If a side has won four titles, the need for a high number of changes isn't great."
Guardiola takes his squad to Trentino, north Italy, for a training camp in the next fortnight and is under considerable pressure to deliver the success Bayern expect.
"It's one thing to get to the top but it's another thing to stay there and that is Guardiola's challenge after our wonderful season," said Bayern president Uli Hoeness.

Make Sure Your Visit to Bath Includes a Walk Along Great Pulteney Street
Plenty of areas across the centre of Bath exude history, whether you're marvelling at the Roman Baths or taking in the Royal Crescent. However, no other area delivers quite the same feel as Great Pulteney Street.
Stretching from Bathwick on the east of the River Avon, this grand thoroughfare is lined on each side with stunning 18th century buildings, and a stroll from the banks of the Avon on one end to the prestigious Holburne Museum at the other should be seen as a must for any visitor to the city.
Designed by famed architect Thomas Baldwin, Great Pulteney Street aimed to expand the boundaries of Bath over to the eastern side of the Avon. Finally completed in 1789, it runs over 1000 feet and is 100 feet wide, making it the widest road in Bath. Since it was designed by one architect and completed as a single project, and kept in wonderful condition ever since, it feels like a slice of 18th century life transported to the modern day.
Now containing luxury hotels and prestige living spaces, Great Pulteney Street has also been home to several of Britain's most famous residents. Jane Austen, whose influence is still felt across the city, lived along Great Pulteney Street at one point, as did noted anti-slavery campaigner William Wilberforce. In fact, Laura Place, which contains a small circular stone basin and water feature, was the site where Austen's Lady Dalrymple took a house for three months in Persuasion.
After you've taken the opportunity to saunter along this iconic part of Bath, you can head to the nearby Victoria Art Gallery. Situated on the corner of Pulteney Bridge and Grand Parade, the Victoria Art Gallery is home to all building plans for Great Pulteney Street, so it provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of this impressive masterpiece of historical architecture.

RIP Old Mate (Jack) K2 and 106
It is with a solemn heart that I write that a legend and original beta player of K2, Old Mate, or Jack to those close to him, has passed away after a long battle with cancer. In a kingdom often riven with strife he was a friendly, funny and loyal character who was universally respected and loved by everyone.
This post is just a humble acknowledgment of the small part of his life that he shared with us, and the testament that he touched so many is that the whole kingdom is in mourning, a truly remarkable player, friend and mate.
We humbly ask if WB could do anything to memorlise our friend in the game. Some suggestions are giving him a perma-shield and a unique title. I am not sure what you can do, but any effort would be appreciate .
He was here right from the beginning, he deserve to be here at the end.
Maegon Edit:
I've added this moving video made in Old Mate's honor. To those who contributed to it; you have our gratitude.

Jack aka Old Mate will be always in our hearts. <3 we want the best for him both irl and game life. i hope the devs can understand our reasons. he was a truly loved player in our previous kingdom K2 and current kingdom 106, and still the most loved person and someone we all care for :)
Old Mate is nothing but a great lad. Always caring to the needs of others and was always bright and positive. Despite being in a war game, he had been so selfless and had been friends to people of both allied and opposing clans.
As much as possible, we would like Jack to be alive in game at least. Hence, we are asking the developers to give him a permanent shield and to never erase him from the map despite inactivity.
We would also like to have him hold King's Grave if possible. The whole kingdom mourns for losing one good friend... may we at least have an in game funeral for him as not everyone can attend his funeral. If you would see Kingdom 106, and check his keep, it is proof enough how much Old Mate meant to the whole Kingdom.
We hope you'd get to hear our plea.
RIP fellow Hodorian <3 you have left a gaping hole in our heart that will never be filled...
DEVS please do something! He has United our kingdom as one, everyone from everyclan has black banners, we have all surrounded him at his location and have all agreed to a week of kingdom peace in respect for him!
It would be amazing if something permanent can be done to honour him as a great player and an amazing human being to all!
Thank you King61. Everyone of Kingdom106 would appreciate something we can remember Old Mate by.
Here are some pictures of the evergrowing horde of keeps assembling to pay their respect:

Because we cannot fit in one screenshot. There will be more keeps to come in the next days.
Thank you Jack. Thank you for the hours of conversation. Thank you for being a true gentleman who reached out to me through a game from the other side of the country. Thank you for all the snapchat karaoke. Thank you for being my friend. Thank you for being my shoulder to cry on, my brother in pain, my strength for all those times I had none. Thank you for simply being amazing you.
Kingdom 2 for life buddy. We all love and miss you so much. Rest in peace Old Mate 💖
We at WB Games Turbine are deeply saddened to hear of Old Mate's passing. We are thinking of his family and friends during this time. Unfortunately, we do not have the ability to erect in-game memorials, but we were all moved by K106 actions.
I do have to ask that people not to share the gofundme link here, as we cannot support 3rd party funding sites. But please continue sharing it amongst yourselves where it is convenient.
Thank you all for sharing your sentiments. Please continue to do so for as long as you wish.
I've pinned this post for a week in order to make it more visible.
"And now his watch has ended."

Tenants Grapple with High Rents and Local Turnover at Asana-Owned Properties
In April, Theft Surged as Cambridge Residents Stayed at Home
The History of Harvard's Commencement, Explained
Success for a woman in corporate or political life is often chalked up to some combination of "personal determination" and "personal sacrifice." The popular rhetoric of Sheryl K. Sandberg '91 speaks to this: her commencement address at Barnard exhorted women to overcome an "ambition gap" and advised listeners that "the most important career decision you're going to make is whether or not you have a life partner and who that partner is." Simplifications such as these have reinforced the tendency for Americans to view gender inequality as a special interest issue, something that only women need to think about. In addition, they have led to a lack of discussion concerning how each citizen must play a role in making equal opportunity in the workplace a reality in the United States.
Anyone who wishes to pursue true gender equality must not only champion reproductive rights, but must also oppose the many systemic problems throughout America's economy and society which affect women's professional lives. Current workplace norms of career structure embody destructive value judgments dating back to the era of separate spheres. We must challenge these socio-economic structures, and the assumptions that underlie them, if we want to achieve equal opportunity in the workplace.
Robert O. Self, a professor of history at Brown University, recently wrote in the New York Times about how issues of gender equality and economic policy are inseparable. How society views gender, and turns its conceptions into law, is a crucial part of the social contract that also underlies our economy. As he puts it, this year's election is about how "the economy and the culture wars…collapse together." Efforts to reshape women's place in the United States are not some niche issue. They are a greater struggle over "the basic architecture of our collective responsibility to ensure that Americans share in a decent life."
Self is correct when he describes how "in the candidates' views of women we catch a glimpse of how we will write the social contract over the next generation." But America's condition of gender inequality is not merely a byproduct of laws concerning child-care, sex education, and abortion rights.
Familial and corporate structures, and the values underlying them, simultaneously work to determine gender's place within the social contract. Changing unequal socio-economic systems and their underlying assumptions isn't as simple as passing laws.
Perhaps it is not what is "in the candidates' views of women," but what is outside of our political discourse—what is simply accepted "as is"—which plays the greatest role in determining the future of gender equality in our country.
Anne-Marie Slaughter, former Director of Policy Planning at the State Department, explored the systemic nature of gender inequality, writing recently in The Atlantic about how women can not "have it all…with the way America's economy and society are currently structured." Her wide-ranging examination maps a complex network of outdated perceptions embedded within political, corporate, and familial culture. She excellently points out how the typical American notion of work/life balance is skewed. As she notes, "workers who put their careers first are typically rewarded; workers who choose their families are overlooked, disbelieved, or accused of unprofessionalism."
These outdated perceptions matter because they continue to manifest themselves in workplace norms, schedules and contracts—all of which create glass ceilings and reinforce notions of sacrifice and dependence on spousal choice, such as those voiced by Sandberg. Slaughter is correct in noting that "it is society that must change, coming to value choices to put family ahead of work just as much as those to put work ahead of family." Being of any gender in the United States should not entail trade-offs between professional and family life.
Our country has a complex case of gender inequality. It is caused, in part, by our eagerness to cast success as a purely individual endeavor, unrelated to societal standards—to declare that placing a high value upon family is tantamount to embracing an "ambition gap." In order to change as deep-seated a societal defect as gender inequality, far-reaching legislation concerning workplace contracts may be useful, but insufficient. This is change that must also occur from the bottom-up.
We can, and should, advocate that any college or company we are a part of follow the lead of private bodies like Princeton, and adopt career tracks which mandate equivalent policies of track extension or workload relief for employees of any gender with new-born children. We can, and should, advocate for open and honest discussion about the fallacious use of "face-time" as a measure of workplace commitment.
But, most crucially, each of us must challenge our own assumptions: about the part we play in defining the social contract, and about the value of time spent with family as compared to the value of time spent at work.

Remember those bright summer afternoons when you and your friends would go rollicking through your neighborhood, chasing each other, playing kickball, jumping rope, and taunting each other with "Who's the Best" at . . . well . . . anything and everything? Those were fun days. Sweaty days. LOUD days. Don't-want-the-summer-to-end days.
And remember when you'd run in the house all excited, full of energy and tongue-dry and yell to anyone willing to give permission: "Can I have a soda/Cool-Aid/Capri Sun?" Then, you'd wait for an answer to come from some nearby room, heart thumping, breathing fast, wanting the drink now, so you could go back out and play with the friends who were squealing outside your door. To push a response you'd belt out again, "Can I . . ."
"Stop screaming!" came the words, interrupting your own. "You're in the house. Use your inside voice." You knew then that your best bet was to settle down and get quiet if you really wanted that treat.
Your inside voice. You know you still have it, right? It's not, though, merely that quieter sound you hear when you speak. It's much deeper than that. It's that very clear expression that goes beyond intuition and conscience and seems comfortably nestled around your heart. It speaks to you softly, sometimes persistently, giving you peace and direction. You can hear it when you close your eyes . . . breathe deeply and slowly . . . and point your hearing into your chest. It emerges when you close out the noise – all of it: your co-workers, your family, the world. The voice tells you what you need to know, what you long to hear. It tells you the truth, affirms your worthiness, and remains steadfast.
Use your inside voice.
When things get crazy – as they always will – slip into a quiet space and access your inside voice.
When stress or frustration or anger mount, close your eyes and retreat to your inside voice.
When you're delivering an important message and want to make an impact, first hear your inside voice.
Your inside voice wants to speak to you, nourish your soul, and announce your greatness. Take time and listen. Your inside voice is waiting.

By Edward M. Eveld
Gov. Sam Brownback said Tuesday he is withdrawing Kansas from the federal government's refugee relocation program because of security concerns.
Despite the state's withdrawal, refugees will continue to be resettled in Kansas, federal officials said.
Brownback had already issued executive orders barring state agencies from assisting in the resettlement of refugees from Syria and other countries that posed a safety risk. The decision announced Tuesday removes the state from the program completely.
But federal officials told Brownback that if the state withdrew, the federal Office of Refugee Resettlement would work directly with local refugee resettlement organizations and refugees would continue to come to the state.
"If the state were to cease participating in the refugee resettlement program, it would have no effect on the placement of refugees by the State Department in Kansas, or the ORR-funded benefits they can receive," wrote Mark Greenberg with the federal Administration for Children and Families in an April 13 letter to Brownback.
Eileen Hawley, Brownback's spokeswoman, said the governor had made numerous attempts since November to work with the federal government on security concerns but could not get adequate assurances about its refugee vetting process.
"The problem is there are gaps in information," she said.
States are allowed by law to withdraw from the refugee resettlement program, and Kansas is the first to withdraw for security reasons, Hawley said. Some states don't participate in the program, she said.
"The governor has taken the action he can to protect the security of the state," Hawley said. "It was clear we were not going to get the assurances we need to participate in the program."
Micah Kubic, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Kansas, said Brownback's decision only takes the state out of the process.
"It's very sad and very unfortunate that the governor is allowing fear to get in the way of hospitality and traditional Kansas values," he said.
Kubic said he didn't understand Brownback's concern because refugees to the United States undergo extensive security screenings. The governor's decision sends a message that the state has no interest in aiding people who face political and religious persecution, Kubic said.
Earlier this year, Brownback directed state agencies to use the U.S. State Department's official list of state sponsors of terrorism to determine whether a refugee should be deemed a security risk, specifically Iran, Sudan and Syria.
Brownback held meetings on April 19 with representatives of the State Department, Homeland Security and the National Counterterrorism Center about his security concerns.
"We have been reasonable and incredibly patient in attempting to work with the federal government on this issue," Brownback said in a statement.
"As governor, I must have confidence that the refugee relocation program, and particularly the vetting process, is sufficient to protect our citizens," he said. "If I have to choose between the safety and security of Kansans and the relocation of refugees, I will take action to protect Kansans."
Theresa Freed, spokeswoman for the Kansas Department for Children and Families, said the state receives about $2.2 million a year in federal funds to assist refugees and refugee resettlement agencies. The state works with three resettlement agencies, including Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas. The state will hold discussions with the Office of Refugee Resettlement to phase out the state's involvement, she said.
Since October, 354 refugees from all countries have been resettled in Kansas, she said, and 13 Syrian refugees have been resettled in the Wichita or Kansas City areas of the state since January 2015.
Rep. Jim Ward, a Wichita Democrat, said Brownback's announcement was intended for political purposes at a time when the state is facing a $290 million budget shortfall.
"I think this is all about distraction," Ward said. "Withdrawing from the federal program does not actually stop refugees from being resettled in the state."

Back in the Seventies, this Empire 598 turntable with its 990 arm was one of THE turntable any respectable audiophile must have on his rig. With adjustment for inflation, its $375 MSRP would have been around $2,700 now. So that was a lot of money then to invest in what would ultimately become one of the more collectible turntable from that era. If you put on a Dave Brubeck or Miles Davies LP on the Empire 598, you would suddenly feel like you have been transported back in time. The Empire 598 is not just a turntable, its a time machine! This particular unit indeed looks like it did travel through time. It had spent the last 30 plus years in a climate controlled room with the last 10 years with either very minimal or no use in any year. Which is why you can see its immaculate condition (for a vintage gear like this) it is in right now. We have had it properly lubricated, suspension springs adjusted and gears in the motor replaced and lube. Now it spins smooth and sweet. The 598 is not going to compete with the modern day turntable you see in the glossy hifi magazines because it is just a different animal from a different era. It lacks the precision tracking details you get from the current day $3,000 or even $5,000 table. But it makes up with nostalgia in generous serving. The 598 is all about replaying your long forsaken (or new) LPs and bringing up the antiquated magic of analog. There is no mistaking the special atmosphere that the 598 presents. We don't have any 45 rpm LP so table was only tested out at 33 rpm. For under $1,000 now, this is great collector piece to add to your vinyl collection or start one.
Cosmetically, the unit looks really good for its vintage. Minor scuff marks here and there but all age appropriate. The cartridge is on its way out so a replacement is in order. Upgrading the analog interconnect cables are also highly recommended if you are nifty with it. Local pickup at our store for this thing of beauty is preferred but will ship if need to in which case, we will securely pack it for safe shipping.

"I've been at the White House since the beginning and heard people say meaningful healthcare reform can't be done," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney proudly announced at his daily press briefing today. After all the setbacks and negative attack ads, he said, the administration had successfully met their Obamacare sign-up goal.
"With the remarkable surge in enrollment," he said, "7,041,000 people [enrolled] before the midnight deadline."
"When we get numbers in from the rest of the states, even more people will be covered," he added.
However, it's also worth noting that when it looked increasingly unlikely last January that the White House wouldn't meet their self-imposed enrollment goal, the White House denied ever having one. Now, of course, after the enrollment surge last night, the administration is once again touting that same enrollment goal.
Reading from prepared remarks, Jay Carney also took a shot at Congressional Republicans, blasting them for their repeated and failed attempts to repeal and defund Obamacare.
"But that effort could not stop that law from working," he said, "and it could not stop middle class families from getting the healthcare security they deserve."
He also expressly said that many of the people who enrolled in the exchanges before the March 31 deadline were young adults, thus staving off fears that the law wouldn't be self-sustaining. However, the demographic data of who actually enrolled isn't yet available.
"There was a surge in enrollment among young adults," Carney intoned. "But we already know that [the] breakdown is sufficient that the marketplaces will function."
"We surpassed everyone's expectations," he said.

Das Ist Ein Schloss
I write from my hospital bed in the pretty little Austrian town of Stvass in the southern Tyrol. I know that the town is pretty because Bruce, who has walked around it several times, has told me so.
I don't speak Austrian and the only thing I can say in German is "das ist ein Schloss" which means "that is a castle". About as useful as "la plume de ma tante". Although I have often found myself in the company of German people I have never had the opportunity to point out a castle – much to my chagrin.
Well bother, I said to myself as I felt my leg snap as I tumbled on the piste a few days ago. Every cloud has a silver lining, but I knew right there and then that I'd have difficulty finding a silver lining to this, least of all when I remembered that the radio had announced temperatures of -16 centigrade. Looking up, I saw thick snow-laden clouds moving in from the other side of the mountain. Nauseous waves of haze swam around me. It was 4.00 and the lifts were starting to close.
Well, all the best people say a prayer at moments like this. So I started: Our Father who art in heaven ……
"You all right, love?" asked a male voice.
Goodness! God has a Yorkshire accent!
I looked up and saw a male figure in a green and yellow ski suit bending over me. Not God, not the Jolly Green Giant, but an Englishman late off the pistes. Rule Britannia.
A snow plough took me as far as the ski lifts, which in turn took me down to the nearest village. Not the village we were staying in, but any village in a storm and all that. Getting on to a snow plough with a broken leg is great fun, but by the time we reached the ski lift the family had caught up with me and helped me off. Emilie, our son's French girlfriend, said things like "oh la la!" the way the French tend to.
In the hospital X-ray room I tried to find out how to say "ouch!" in German. In both French and Spanish it is "aie!" but that didn't seem to work.
"I expect you get a lot of ski-victims ?" I asked the plastering-wallah.
"Ah yes, zis is so," he replied, "but we hev mostly Germans and Russians. You are ze first Engleeesh."
Yup, rule Britannia.
There was no room on the trauma ward – full, one assumes, of Germans and Russians – so I was put in the side room of a maternity ward.
During the night I woke, dopey with pain-killers, and thought I had had a baby. The unmistakable sound of the new-born was close by. It was clear I had had a Ceasarian, even though the pain was in my leg and not my tummy. Confused, I decided to work out how old I was and came to the conclusion that I was twelve. Realizing that this seemed awfully young, I re-calculated and decided I was eighty-eight. I accepted this and slipped back in to my drugged sleep.
But in the morning, all was revealed. As I said, every cloud has a silver lining. The nurse came in and took my blood pressure and did a few other nursey-things. Then she turned and threw open the curtains. There – out there in the frozen world – was the most beautiful view. A brilliant azure sky and snow-laden mountains. Acres of dark pines, their branches heavy with snow, stretched off to one side and a river tumbled under an ancient stone bridge. A few picturesque houses dotted the embankment and the pale yellow of the winter sun crept up over the white landscape. And there, off to the east, was a castle ………. a beautiful little Tyrolian castle clinging daintily to the escarpment.
"Hey look!" I exclaimed and pointed out of the window. The nurse turned to where I indicated, her mouth open in surprise. I heaved myself on to one elbow, enthralled.
"Das ist ein Schloss !" I shouted.

When it comes to the world of online slots, Amatic is a name that – while reputable – hardly ranks among the best of the best.
Often muscled out by bigger online casino software developers that carry more punching power, Amatic has seemingly adapted to its mid-market position. However, that has by no means stopped this name from delivering some really great online slot games. It seems that the brand's focus is largely the classics genre, but that seems to make sense given the retro revival that's currently taking place in the world of online casino gaming. Adding to the raft of classically styled slot titles currently out there is Hot Diamonds, a game that promises to bring the heat.
Theme wise, you really don't need three guesses to get a grip on what this real money online slots release is all about. The Hot Diamonds video slot has a very basic theme in place, one that is based around meshing together fire and jewels. The backdrop is a deep red, with two flames surrounding the logo of the game at the top of the screen.
Moving onto the actual reels, what you'll find is jewels aplenty. Gold bars, diamond rings, rubies, emeralds, and so much more ensure that this game carries an impressive sparkle. Not a production values masterpiece by any means, but you can't deny the alluring nature of Hot Diamonds.
Diamonds very much equal "dosh" here, as the game isn't exactly short on payouts. Looking at what's really going to whet your whistle as you spin the reels of the free Hot Diamond slot, you simply can't look past the emeralds.
These kick off the main payouts in the game, with the right amount securing you 10,000 coins. There is then a big jump to the next payout in the game, which is a stellar 25,000 coins that's linked to the amethysts and sapphires.
If you manage to put a ring on it (by finding the diamond rings in the game), you'll see yourself wrap up 50,000 coins, with things only improving – to the tune of 75,000 coins – when gold enters the equation. Last, but by no means least, you have the rubies that are worth up to a jaw-dropping 250,000 coins.
Amatic isn't always a name that goes big when it comes to bonus features, but they have managed to sneak a few in here to the delight of players. The Scatter symbols can award an instant cash prize, while you can grab yourself up to 10 free spins by finding 3, 4, or 5 on the reels. During a free spin, the Scatter symbols will also become Wild symbols, thus can chop and change positions on the reels in order to allow a player to grab even more winning combinations. Finally, the last bonus extra here is the Gamble feature, which is pretty self-explanatory, as it gives players a double or nothing shot at success.
Considering that this game has a rather classic overlay, you are right to expect that various other games out there carry a similar look and feel. Ensuring that you do play something that is just as enjoyable, we have a few recommendations to make. For our money, you won't need to venture out of the Amatic back catalogue, as a lot of the brand's other titles can match Hot Diamonds step for step. Specifically, both Lightning Hot and Diamonds on Fire are able to give players some serious reel-based entertainment.
Innovative it isn't, but that doesn't take anything away from the actual quality of the slots experience here. Hot Diamonds is certainly a welcome addition to the market from Amatic, as it actually relishes in the fact that it is hardly boundary pushing. Overall, Hot Diamonds is one online slots game that is certainly worth taking for a spin if you ask us.

"Group Manoeuvre... is cunning, exhilarating and at times almost emotionally overwhelming" -Maddy Cristall, Words On Sound
Raised in a family of artists and musicians on the remote Isle of Skye, and now in-demand in throughout Europe and North America, award-winning Scottish harpist Màiri Chaimbeul combines a deep-rooted sense of Gaelic tradition with a distinctive improvising voice and honed classical technique.
A founding member of critically acclaimed Canadian indie-folk band Fish & Bird, Adam Iredale-Gray has been touring hard for the past 9 years. His writing style draws on the formative Irish sessions of his youth in Victoria, as well as contemporary folk, jazz and pop influences such as Oliver Schroer, Brad Mehldau, and Bon Iver. His tunes have become part of the standard repertoire in Western Canadian fiddle circles.
Vancouver-born fiddler Elise Boeur immersed herself in traditional music in Ireland as a youth, later moving between jazz schools in North America and Norwegian folk music college deep in the mountains of Telemark. She has brought her sonic sensitivity and passion for folk traditions to a staggering variety of projects, from alt-folk Canadiana to prog metal.
'A veritable (prog-trad) folk super-group whose next moves promise to be extraordinary" - David Morrison, Folk Radio UK

Guest post by Amy Nickson, writer at Working Moms Word
Monopoly—the classic board game, which is quite popular among children and adults for over 100 years, is way more than just entertainment for family fun night. While you can enjoy the fun of becoming a real estate tycoon playing this game, there are also many educational lessons to be learned as well. The game offers the opportunity for players to make budgeting, investing, and financial decisions, which can help in remaining financially prudent. Following are 8 money lessons which you can learn from the monopoly board game and can apply when managing your own personal finances.
Value of budgeting
A successful monopoly player is a good at budgeting. Because the concept is similar, you can apply the same formula while playing the game or creating your monthly budget as well. The board game can teach you to make a realistic budget based on your income and expenses. The winner of this game can easily meet his/her each expenses and save money.
Giving priority to an emergency fund
A monopoly player knows well how unpredictable the game is. The player should prepare beforehand to manage any situation. Just like unforeseen circumstances arise in a Monopoly board game, it can happen in your real-life financial situation as well. You never know when you will face an emergency—such as being laid off of a job or an accident—which can use up a savings account that you've taken years to build. You should have an emergency fund so that you can face the financial need with solid backup. Having such an emergency fund can minimize your chances of having to sell your assets or take out loans to meet your current obligations.
Being a responsible decision maker
The Monopoly game helps people learn to make a proper decisions through critical thinking strategies. For instance, all players should start with the same amount of money to play the game, but, the important thing is how well you can manage your money. While "luck" can be attributed to success in the game and in real life, you still have control over the purchases that you make and assess the risk/reward of each investment. You must learn to overcome whatever comes your way and still manage your finances properly.
Importance of negotiation
One of the most important tricks to win the monopoly game is proper negotiation. In real life you should have the skill to negotiate with many people such as creditors, utility suppliers, sellers etc. This will help you to get best finance deals and save your hard earned money as well.
Investing money wisely
To ultimately be successful, there are no alternatives to making wise investment decisions. You should invest your money to make it grow with time. You'll have to take chances and invest your money instead of simply leaving it in the bank. But for this, you need to be updated on the financial market and know all strategies well. Think about your time horizon, risk tolerance, and diversification. For more information about investing read these articles:
Investing: How to choose which investment products are right for you
No Excuses
You probably didn't realize that playing Monopoly could teach players lessons about personal responsibility. You shouldn't make any excuses about losing the game. Likewise, you should not skip any chance to win while you're playing the game either. Just like in the game, your real-life financial decisions have consequences. Unlike the game, though, the real-life decisions can have long-lasting effects. Making the unwise financial decision to overspend on credit cards, for instance, can take you years—maybe decades—to pay off.
Significance of building a strong asset base
Remember, building a strong asset base will help you to get passive income—income which you are not actively involved with earning. You can easily live off the passive money and can save your active income—salary from your job or business income. In the monopoly board game, the number of properties gets the advantage and control over the board, but one must also consider the value of the assets. For example, it is much better to own Park Place and Boardwalk (higher value assets that yield higher returns), rather than Mediterranean, Baltic, Oriental, Vermont, and Connecticut Avenues combined (lower valued assets, which yield lower returns).
Taking care of assets
In order to win the game, it's very important to make improvement on the properties you've bought. You should reinvest in your properties by building houses and hotels to improve your income and financial position. In your real life, it should be your constant effort to boost your assets and minimize your financial obligations. Thus, you can achieve financial freedom in the long run. The bottom line is, don't rely on financial shortcuts because they can ruin your financial stability.

One in Christ Jesus, engaged in God's mission, empowered by the Spirit.
Raymund Donnelly founded Pause for Hope in Liverpool in 2009, providing a space for those affected by cancer to come together in prayer. Here he shares their story, and offers support to others wanting to host a service locally…
When I was working as a thoracic surgeon I treated many people with cancer and, having a strong belief in the power of prayer, I brought together the various cancer charities in Liverpool for a service of prayer, hymns and music which we entitled Pause for Hope. Ecumenical from the first, it proved very successful and, since then, services have been held every year in one or other of the cathedrals in Liverpool.
The initiative continues to grow, with other places in England, Scotland and Wales now hosting services, and a first service in Northern Ireland being planned for 2020. It has clearly met a real need which people feel when faced with cancer.
Members of all religious dominations and faiths are welcome to the services, as well as those with little or no faith. It is an ideal vehicle for Churches Together to bring the different denominations together in common cause to pray with and for those who are, in any way, affected by cancer.
Pause for Hope is now in its 21st year, and every year it reaches the hearts and minds of so many people whose lives are touched by cancer. It brings comfort, consolation and hope to those who have cancer or have had cancer, or have lost loved ones to cancer. The uplifting nature of our services helps those attending to cope with the difficulties and distress that cancer can bring.
Rev Colin Marsh, Ecumenical Development Officer at Birmingham Churches Together, describes the impact the services have had in their city: "Pause for Hope has been an inspiration for all who have attended the service in Birmingham, now in its third year. The address by someone who knows the pain and suffering of cancer is a poignant reminder of the depth of hardship that cancer brings, but offers hope and light for dark moments. In true ecumenical fellowship, Pause for Hope brings us together in prayer and song."
The aim of Pause for Hope is:
And, importantly, we have to pray that the day will quickly come when all cancers can be prevented or cured. We must earnestly ask God to let our scientists see the cure for cancer in all its forms, and the harder we pray the sooner that day will come.
If you would like to organise a Pause for Hope service we can give you considerable help, including a model Order of Service with suggested prayers and hymns, as well as help on how to promote the service with posters and social media.

Letting Agent Today can reveal that the agency at the centre of the scandal over alleged charges for viewings has been the focus of controversy in the recent past.
Flintons is a single office agency based in London. Its website describes itself as "the London and international residential property specialist offering a full range of related services that help our clients buy, sell, let, rent and manage their homes and investments."
Yesterday it hit the headlines when it was accused by the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire programme of effectively charging prospective tenants hundreds of pounds to even view properties.
Flintons itself denies the accusation that it charged for viewings - its response is published in full below.
However, LAT has now discovered that in September the agency was the focus of a protest against its wider approach to fees.
Anonymous posters on Twitter circulated a call asking people to protest outside the agency's office in September.
LAT has invited Flintons to put its side of the protest story but has not received a response on that specific point.
Meanwhile there has been widespread condemnation by industry figures of Flintons for allegedly charging potential tenants hundreds of pounds for just viewing a property.
Former RICS residential chairman Jeremy Leaf said on Twitter that the revelation made by the BBC"highlights the need to tighten rule further - and as soon as possible."
Victoria Whitlock, a buy to let landlord and the Evening Standard's columnist known as The Accidental Landlord, tweeted that the matter was simply "indefensible."
Industry trainer and consultant Mike Day, who runs Integra Property Services, also took to social media to ask: "A new low for the lettings industry?"
The Victoria Derbyshire programme claimed yesterday that Israel Kujore and his friend Harry responded to one of Flintons' adverts.
"He said they had gone to see an agent who had told them they needed to pay a deposit to see a room but that the money would be refundable … They had paid £300 each to see a property, but Israel soon realised something was wrong" said a BBC report.
The BBC also quoted Labour's housing spokeswoman Melanie Onn calling for the government to give greater protection to renters.
"Letting agents as well as landlords should be properly regulated" she said. "Of the 8,000 letting agents we've got around the country, only about half of those are voluntarily signed up to a code that means that they will operate to the highest professional standards. That means that half of them are not."
However, Flintons continues to deny the allegations in full.
Flintons told Letting Agent Today: "We deny any allegation that prospective clients are asked to pay a holding deposit to be able to have a viewing. A holding deposit is only taken where a prospective client wishes to exclusively reserve a property for themselves and the property is then taken off the market and not offered to any other person.
"Whilst we have been informed of 3 instances where prospective clients had raised complaints, we provided suitable responses and believe that we demonstrated that the version of events that the complainants had provided were not entirely accurate and there was clear knowledge that any deposit taken was non-refundable. As the BBC have confirmed, all had signed holding deposit forms clearly stating that the deposit was non-refundable as it states at the beginning of the document and is clearly visible and is not something that can be missed or overlooked. It is not accepted that they were given the form after payment had been taken nor was there any assurance that the holding deposits were refundable.
"We note that the BBC also undertook an undercover investigation where they used undercover reporters to look into our practices. They have confirmed that their undercover reporters were clearly told that any deposit would be non–refundable prior to any funds being requested when they showed an interest in a property. This we say clearly supports our position.
"We confirm that we are an agency that assists numerous clients and the complaints raised only form a very small percentage of people who have engaged with us and the vast majority of our clients are happy with the service that we provide. Notwithstanding our position, we have reviewed our procedures and have provided further training to staff and have also now amended our holding deposit form to further highlight that the deposit is non-refundable if a prospective client changes their mind."

I have some general questions regarding ADAR100 EVALZ:
1. There is a J1 and J2 connector on the board. But there is no description about this connection in the data sheet...
In the data sheet there is only J5 described....and this line is not on the board..
2. Is the Technology of ADAR a CW or pulsed signal?
3. Is it possible to use TX/RX at the same time? Or do you have to use only TX for example and terminate the RX channels? In this case I can use a horn antenna for a RX...
I would be very glad, if you can answer these questions.
Thanks in Advance...
Answers to your questions:
1. Evaluation board schematic is in the User Guide, available on the product webpage - also attached below. J1 and J2 are SMA connectors for the calibration path. Do you mean…
The RF lines on the ADAR1000 are: RX1, RX2, RX3, RX4, TX1, TX2, TX3, TX4 and RF_IO, all of which can be connected to a network analyzer. RF_IO is just the common port for the Rx and Tx paths. In other…
Please re-frame your question, I don't know what you are exactly trying to ask concerning control of CW or pulsed signal?
1. Evaluation board schematic is in the User Guide, available on the product webpage - also attached below. J1 and J2 are SMA connectors for the calibration path. Do you mean P1 and P2? Those contain various GPIO and SPI connections.
2. I don't know if I understand the question. Do you mean can you use a pulse or CW signal with the ADAR1000? If so, you can use either, just as long as you do not go beyond the absolute maximum ratings in the datasheet.
3. You cannot be in Tx mode and Rx mode at the same time; you can either be in Tx mode or Rx mode - you have to switch back and forth. Unused channels should be loaded with 50 Ohms.
thanks very much, you´ve answered all my questions.
Regarding the first question: No I don´t mean P1 and P2. I mean J1 and J2...could you give an example what you mean with calibration path? I thought only the Channel RF_IO is for the network analyzer....
The RF lines on the ADAR1000 are: RX1, RX2, RX3, RX4, TX1, TX2, TX3, TX4 and RF_IO, all of which can be connected to a network analyzer. RF_IO is just the common port for the Rx and Tx paths. In other words, RF_IO serves at the input for the TX paths while in Tx mode, and the output for the RX paths while in Rx mode.
The calibration path from J1 to J2 is the same design as any RF_IO to any Rx input OR RF_IO to any Tx output. J1 to J2 calibration path is matched in length so you can calibrate out the insertion loss and phase of the RF lines.
thank you very much!
Hi jdobler,
I am trying to start the ADAR Software with my patch antenna...
I followed all the steps from Page 7-10 (datasheet ADAR100= evalz) for enabling TX...Now I have a problem..
1. this example is only for one TX channel, right? If I want to use the other channels, do I just have to take the same setting like for TX1?
2. Furthermore I dont really understand how to run the software, because on page 13 "Quick Test Procedure" there is only the information to connect RF IO with a NWA....but I have to press a button on the GUI of the software or dont I?
3. Where can I download the .txt files for the settings? I didnt find them...
Thanks in Advance!
They are under the Evaluation Documentation.
thanks very much. It helped me much....do you also have txt files for phase settings for example for 90 degrees oder 60 degrees?
on you product webpage there were only files for 45 degrees
did I understand it right?.....there are two possibilities to set the phase or gain.
1. I am using the GUI and follow the steps up on page 8
2. If I want to save some time, I can use the manual register and upload the txt files for gain settings
maybe you can tell me the values for I and Q for aiming a phase of 60,90,180 degrees....because it didn´t work with my values
sorry, that I am spaming you...I followed all the steps in the datasheet and connecter the Networkanalyzer to the RF IO and TX1... there is only a noise seeable....no signal of the phase with 45 degrees....Can you help me?

Allvar Gullstrand, a Swedish ophthalmologist who discovered how the eye bends light to form images, was born on this day in 1862. When Gullstrand began his work, the optics of glass lenses were already well established. But it wasn't clear how the eye's lenses functioned, especially when changing focus. Gullstrand wrote out complex mathematical models and proposed that when the eye changes focus on near and far objects, it relies on more than just the curvature of the lens: Vast numbers of tiny, transparent fibers within the lens also make adjustments.
In 1911, Gullstrand also developed two tools for inspecting the eye: the ophthalmoscope for peering at the retina and optical disk; and the slit lamp, which allows doctors to locate foreign objects or tumors in the fluid of the eye. That same year, he received the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for his work. Gullstrand died in 1930.

This website built for the Girl Scouts of Cranford was established in the Fall
of 2013 to assist Cranford Girl Scout Advisers, Leaders, Girl Scouts, and their
parents quickly access information about scouting in Cranford.
This site only focuses on Girl Scouting in Cranford and opportunities that are
available to members locally. I truly hope that this will be a helpful tool when
planning out your 2013-2104 year. If you have a Gold, Silver, or Bronze Award
program that you would like promoted, let me know and we will get it posted so
that it may be shared with the Cranford community.
Please keep in mind that Girl Scouting is so much bigger than just a troop
experience or a Service Unit experience. Support from council, the Girl Scouts
Heart of New Jersey, is also valuable. You should visit their website for what
they have to offer such as required adult training
and fun programs for girls of
all ages.
GSUSA is our national organization. Visit their website for all kinds of great
updates about Girl Scouting nationwide. Did you know your troop can complete
other councils' badges or travel to and use other councils' camps? As an older Girl
Scout member you can take advantage
of Destinations program.

Spotted in the pits at the Val Di Sole World Cup. Minnaar and Peaty's V10 now have carbon rear ends.
That's right…a fully carbon Santa Cruz V10. Not only have they got sweet new swing arms but the frame is new too.
Santa Cruz Syndicate riders Greg Minnaar and Steve Peat will be running the new bike this weekend at Val Di Sole. Josh Bryceland still has the aluminium back end.
How light is the new bike? Well super snapper Gary Perkin was rumoured to be doing a weigh off between the V10 and the GT Fury so maybe keep an eye on Vital for the vital statistics.

Because confined spaces are not designed for human occupancy they have hazards that are not typically found in locations that ARE designed for occupancy. So what about the person who has to enter those spaces to perform work? Confined spaces are usually not well ventilated and may have unguarded equipment that would not be expected to be found in occupied areas. They may have inwardly converging walls or convoluted piping that could lead to entrapment. Once you have identified your confined spaces, the first step prior to entry is to determine the potential hazards that may exist in those spaces. Hazard Identification is one of the most critical components of a confined space safety program. If a hazard is not identified, then it cannot be eliminated or controlled! That omission could lead to a fatality.
Confined space hazards can generally be placed in two categories-atmospheric and physical hazards. Atmospheric hazards fall into four general categories-toxic, oxygen deficient, oxygen enriched and flammable environments. Atmospheric hazards are invisible. The air in confined spaces looks and often smells just like the outside air, so workers entering the space may not recognize that the atmosphere is dangerous. A well chosen, calibrated gas monitor used to properly monitor the air is the way to insure the atmosphere is safe and that there is sufficient oxygen for breathing. The atmosphere in a confined space may also lead to explosions or fires. Gas monitors check for flammable atmospheres and for oxygen enriched atmospheres that can increase the risk for and intensity of a fire.
In addition to gas monitoring, it is critical that a visual inspection is conducted to look for potential residues and other hazards in the confined space that may not be detected on the gas monitor. It is important to review the list of chemicals that may have been stored or used in the space previously. Furthermore, there must be a determination of potential atmospheric hazards that will be brought INTO the space or may be created by the work being done in the space. Atmospheric testing may show a safe environment prior to entry, but fumes and combustion by-products will be of concern if welding is to be performed in the space. Cleanup of debris in the bottom of the tank could stir up toxins and hazards that may not show up on the gas monitor when the debris is untouched prior to entry. The evaluation of hazards must include what exists before entry as well as what hazards may occur while the worker is inside the space.
Safety hazards in confined spaces include entrapment and engulfment as well as physical hazards caused by mechanical or electrical equipment. The configuration of a tank with inwardly converging walls could lead to entrapment of a worker. Solid materials such as grains or sand can lead to engulfment. Liquids inside a space could lead to drowning. It is critical that the hazard assessment determine if there are process related lines that enter the space. These will need to be isolated from the space prior to entry. A determination must be made to see if there are rotating parts, exposed electrical, hydraulics or other energy sources that will need to be eliminated or controlled prior to entry. A Lockout/Tagout program typically goes hand in hand with a confined space entry program. See OSHA 1910.147
There are numerous other health and safety hazards that are also common for confined spaces including noise and heat, cold extremes, slips and falls that should also be included in assessment.
One could argue that hazard assessment is the NUMBER ONE priority for preventing confined space entry fatalities. A hazard that is not identified cannot be eliminated or controlled.
NFPA is developing a best practices document for confined space entry. Hazard assessment will be an important part of this document. How do you insure that all hazards are identified in your confined spaces? Do you use a checklist/permit? How competent is the person who is evaluating your confined spaces? Do you include a list of hazards that will be brought into the space as a result of work being performed?What about adjacent spaces (see previous blog)?
If you have suggestions for what should be included in the hazard assessment or in the new document in general, please let us know!

When thinking of metal roofing products most people are looking at colorbond corrugated roofing and that is the most effective and appealing product for a pitched roof. Any other profile has usually been designed to suit a factory, so obviously your home will look like a factory if you decide on any other profile than the standard corrugated profile.
When choosing what manufacturer to buy from we would suggest you take the cheapest quote, as all corrugated roofing rolled in Australia is usually from BHP colorbond and the size of the effective cover is either 760 or 762. So you see you are virtually getting the same product from whatever company that manufactures colorbond products, just make sure you ask the question "it is Australian made and not Chinese" and you can't go far wrong.
However if you are going to choose a corrugated metal roof you will be needing an effective roof ventilation system. See Blog on this site "Warning! Read Before You Design Your Next Hosing Project". Make sure you incorporate an effective ventilation system that works to remove the nasties of the roofspace.
Universal Tile Ventilators Smoothline® Ventilator Systems were designed aerodynamically for the Smoothlines of corrugated colorbond roofing, nothing is more aesthetically appealing as well as working very effectively to remove all the nasties from the corrugated colourbond roofspace.
