Hold on to your hats, people. Have I got a drink for you!
It's springy!
It's light!
It's refreshing!
It's cold!
It's sour!
It's zippy!
And yes, there's a little alcohol in it. And I had two of them last night.
Wanna make something of it?
It takes two syrups to make this drink, one rhubarb and the other rosemary. Right before serving, mix the two together, add rum, lemon, and ice, and you're good to go. It's an absolutely delightful experience.
The original recipe says to combine everything and serve—it makes eight servings. I contemplated doing that but then decided a cup-and-a-half of rum just for me might be a bit much for one evening.
Aren't you impressed with my discretion?
So I kept the syrups separate and mixed just enough for a moderate one-person serving (promise) at the last minute.
You can cut out the alcohol all together, if you wish. (What a weird wish that would be, but to each his own, right?) And the rhubarb juice is fantastic by itself. I imagine it would also be good added to iced tea or lemonade or limeade or orange juice or... you get the point. Of course, rum added to all those drinks would be good, too. You get the point.
Rhubarb Daiquiri
Adapted from Aimee of Under the Highchair and she, in turn, got it from Bon Appetit magazine.
3 cups chopped rhubarb
2 1/4 cups water, divided
½ cup rosemary sprigs and needles
½ cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons lemon juice, divided
1 ½ cups rum or tequila
lemon wedges, for garnish
rosemary sprigs, for garnish
For the rosemary syrup:
Combine 1 cup of water with 2 tablespoons sugar in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add the rosemary, lid the pan, and remove from heat. Steep for 5 minutes before straining the liquid and discarding the rosemary. Pour the syrup into a little jar and chill.
For the rhubarb juice:
Put the rhubarb, the 1 1/4 cups remaining water, the ½ cup of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice in a blender and whiz for a little. It will be pulpy but juicy. Strain the mixture, pressing on it vigorously with a spoon to extract all the liquid. Discard the pulp. Pour the juice into a quart jar and chill.
To mix for a group:
Combine the syrups with the remaining lemon juice and rum. Divide between 8 ice-filled glasses and garnish with lemon wedges and rosemary sprigs.
To mix individual drinks:
1/3 cup rhubarb juice
2 tablespoons rosemary syrup
2 tablespoons rum
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Mix, pour over ice, and garnish with a wedge of lemon and sprig of rosemary.

I totally have to make this again this year. Refreshing just doesn't even come close to describing it. Thanks for the mention!ReplyDelete
I like drinks like this! I call them "festive drinks". I would make it with the rum for my husband and without or just a tiny bit for the taste for me cause it does weird things to my heart, but I love sour and cold so I'll tuck this away!ReplyDelete
do you think I can use dried rosemary?ReplyDelete
it looks GREAT.
Margo, I'm not sure, but I think not. I suspect the fresh-brightness is imperative.ReplyDelete
Something fun to do with rhubarb. I'll give it a go (although, I'll have the non-alcoholic variety)ReplyDelete

Updated: 21st Sep 2020
£500K Of Summer is a series of promotions that is running over June, July and August 2018 at Rosy Bingo and other Microgaming bingo sites run by Broadway Gaming – Butlers Bingo, Glossy Bingo, Dotty Bingo and Bingo Diamond.
The Broadway sites used to be famous for their huge welcome bonuses but now they have decided to put their resources more into promotions and prizes for regular players with some of the best online bingo promotions they've run to date.
The Win A Car promotion is running three times – once in June, once in July and once in August – with a different car to be won each time. June's prize is a brand new Volkswagen UP. The Win A Car games play as part of the bingo schedule in the exclusive Broadway Room, mostly between 7pm and 8pm but some at other times. The car could be won in any of these 90 ball games (all of which also have regular prizes), but by far the mostly likely outcome is for it to be won some time during the final series of games between 7pm and 8pm on the last day of the month.
This is because Win A Car is an escalator jackpot promotion. At the start of the month, to win the car a player would have to win full house in 40 or fewer calls and while this is possible, it is extremely unlikely (less than one in a million for each ticket). The ball count goes up by one each week, reaching 44 on the last but one day of the month (improving the chance each ticket has of winning to around 1 in 200,000). If the car hasn't already been won, on the final day of the month the ball count goes up as follows – 45, 46, 48, 50, 52, 90 – meaning that the car is guaranteed to be won in the last game if not already gone and making for a nail-bitingly exciting hour of bingo. All these games are available for prebuy with the number of calls required to win the car shown in the schedule.
This leaderboard runs from 14th June until 15th July and takes place in 4 stages, with an ultimate prize of a round the world trip for 2 people worth £12,500. To participate, players must first opt in; they then receive one leaderboard point for each £10 of cash play on any game.
Win a BBQ is another escalator jackpot promotion, running every Saturday evening in June in the Broadway room. Each week, there is a gas BBQ worth £400 to be won. The five games all take place between 8pm and 9pm; the first three games have a ticket price of 30p and ball counts of 52, 53 and 55 respectively. The next game has a 35p ticket price and a ball count of 58 and the final game has a £1 ticket price and a ball count of 90 to guarantee that the BBQ will be won if it didn't already go in one of the earlier games.
A series of slots leaderboards, each with £5K worth of prizes, are also running under the £500K umbrella. The next one of these is the Fortinium Leaderboard from 21st – 27th June. There are 20 cash prizes (top prize £1000) and players score one point for each £10 of cash play on the Fortinium, Avalon and King Tusk slot games.

In case you are trendy and weird sort you need to definitely look these grunge inside designs. Grunge type began with the grunge music within the '80s. Additionally with the music got here the grunge trend and the grunge design. If you wish to make you house in grunge type you must let the partitions look "soiled" or let the bricks of the wall seen. However the "soiled" design it doesn't really feel soiled in any respect — in truth, the design is fairly delicate, clear, elegant and in any case distinctive. Additionally you'll be able to put classic furnishings that may match with the grunge fashion.

Dye Sublimation is a decorating method that has fast become the benchmark for uniforms in the following areas:
- Motorsport team uniforms
- Unique Work uniforms
- Sporting Garments of all types
- School uniforms
Due to the technology used making sublimated apparel, the design options are only limited by your imagination or if you just want something quick and easy bringing your ideas to life by our fully qualified in house design team. Our product is totally Australian made and will remain so in the foreseeable future.
The advantages of using dye sublimation rather than digital printing are-
- Sublimated garments offer a detailed finish which can not be matched by any other decoration method.
- The image is printed with dye rather than ink which means the print will never fade or crack.
- Individual names and numbers can be applied to team uniforms or year 12 garments without expensive set up costs incurred from other decoration methods.
- Dye sublimation can be applied to all garments that use breathable polyester.
So for the next alternative please consider the options of Sublimation Printing.

The Heart of Kansas City
I've always said Kansas City has a big heart. But, it was pure serendipity when the Marriott Heart was shining brightly on the night I went to make a photograph of the Bartle Hall Sky Stations. I've always loved the Sky Stations but I didn't originally know they were inspired by the Art Deco design elements in Municipal Auditorium.

Abstract: A linked population-based database is being created in Denmark for research on drug safety during pregnancy. It combines information from the Danish National Health Service Prescription Database (with information on all prescriptions reimbursed in Denmark since 2004), the Danish Fetal Medicine Database, the Danish National Registry of Patients, and the Medical Birth Registry. The new linked database will provide validated information on malformations diagnosed both prenatally and postnatally. The cohort from 2008 to 2014 will comprise 589,000 pregnancies with information on 424,000 pregnancies resulting in live-born children, ~420,000 pregnancies undergoing prenatal ultrasound scans, 65,000 miscarriages, and 92,000 terminations. It will be updated yearly with information on ~80,000 pregnancies. The cohort will enable identification of drug exposures associated with severe malformations, not only based on malformations diagnosed after birth but also including those having led to termination of pregnancy or miscarriage. Such combined data will provide a unique source of information for research on the safety of medications used during pregnancy.

Apple's App Store Tops 1 Million Apps
A little more than five years after launching, Apple's App Store has topped 1 million apps.
Apple's CEO Tim Cook revealed the milestone at its big iPad event on Tuesday, adding that there have been more than 60 billion app downloads to date and $13 billion paid out to developers. By comparison, Apple had 700,000 apps and 30 billion downloads at the same time last year.

While it's an impressive figure, Apple's App Store is likely still behind Google Play, which passed the 1 million mark in July.

Craig Thomson quits Federal ALP
THE embattled Labor MP, Craig Thomson, has quit the ALP after a conversation last night with the Prime Minister, Julia Gillard.
Mr Thomson will formally announce his decision in an address to the media at 1pm AEST outside his Tuggerah electorate office on the NSW central coast.
But it is believed the decision has been forced upon him to avoid further embarrassment to the government.
Ms Gillard, who is to address the media today, is also expected to announce that Peter Slipper will not be making a speedy return to the Speaker's chair.
She is expected to use the press conference to attempt to clear the air around both the Thomson and Slipper sagas, which have caused enormous damage to the government's reputation.
Mr Thomson, the member for the NSW electorate of Dobell, has been under sustained scrutiny over his links to the Health Services Union, which is being investigated for alleged inappropriate conduct by senior staff members.

Questions & Answers
What are the requirements for becoming a licensed Florida Community Association Manager (CAM)?
To become a Florida Community Association Manager, you must successfully complete the 16 Hour CAM Pre-License Course, submit an application with fee ($223.50), have electronic fingerprints taken through PearsonVUE ($53.50) and successfully complete the state examination.
Click below to view more details about how to obtain a license.
When did the Florida CAM Pre-Licensing Education requirements change from 18 hours to 16 hours?
On January 31, 2019 Florida Governor Ron DeSantis held a special event called "Florida Deregathon" requesting ideas from the state's professional licensing boards to reduce government regulations.
Based on the Governor's request, the Florida Regulatory Council of Community Association Managers decided to reduce the CAM pre-licensing education requirement from 18 hours to 16 hours. They also reduced the CAM continuing education requirement from 20 hours to 15 hours. These changes went into effect on August 15, 2019.
How does the Florida 16 Hour CAM Pre-Licensing Classroom Course at Larson Educational Services differ from Correspondence or Online Courses?
The difference between classroom education and online education is quite significant. With our classroom courses you will be taught by professionally trained instructors who are not only experts in the Community Association industry, but they also understand how to prepare you for success on the exam. In a classroom setting you are able to ask questions, get clarification on subject matter that you may not understand, network with other professionals and HAVE FUN!
We understand that "going back to school" is not at the top of your to-do list, so we make sure you have a comfortable learning environment that is geared toward your comfort, and our interactive and energetic instructors make sure you have an enjoyable experience. Our reputation for high-quality classroom experiences is the reason why we are the market leader in Florida Community Association Manager education.
The Correspondence or Online Courses are geared toward those individuals who have previous CAM experience, have been licensed in another state or are very comfortable in an online learning environment. Online learning is not right for everyone, but it can be a very convenient way to complete the required education. Keep in mind, however, if you do choose to complete the education in an online format, that it is up to you to determine when and where you will proceed through the course, as opposed to the classroom course where the schedule is already laid out for you and our instructors will tell you how to proceed through the course material.
Please call us at (239) 344-7510 if you have further questions about the difference between classroom and online education or need guidance in making a selection.
When is a community association manager license required?
A CAM license is required when managing an association of more than 10 units and/or has an annual budget in excess of $100,000.
What types of properties hire community association managers?
Community association managers are generally hired at mobile home parks, planned unit developments, homeowners associations, cooperatives, timeshares, condominiums, or other residential units which are authorized to impose a fee that may become a lien on the parcel.
What are some typical responsibilities of a community association manager?
Responsibilities include: 1) controlling or disbursing association funds; 2) determining how or when to prepare budgets or other financial documents for an association; 3) determining how or when to provide notice of meetings or to conduct association meetings; 4) maintaining and/or having authorization to spend association petty cash; 5) coordinating maintenance for the residential development; and 6) performing other day-to-day services involved with the operation of a community association.
I want to be a property manager. Is a CAM License required?
No. A community association manager (CAM) license is not applicable to the management of apartment buildings, commercial property or single-family dwellings. There is no state license for a property manager. However, if you will be receiving compensation in the form of commissions for securing tenants you will be required to have a Florida Real Estate License.
How often do I need to renew my license?
All CAM licenses expire September 30 of every even-numbered year. If you already have your license and need to complete continuing education or have questions about your license renewal requirements, take a look at our CAM License Renewal Requirements page.
My license expired two or more years ago, and is now null and void. How do I become a licensed community association manager again?
You may petition for reinstatement of a null and void license if you failed to renew your license due to unusual hardship or illness. If the council denies reinstatement, you will be required to reapply for licensure as a new applicant, including pre-licensure education. You are not, however, required to take the state examination again.
I am not using my community association manager license. Can I place my license in an inactive status?
Yes, you may place your license in an inactive status. You may do this at renewal time for an inactive renewal fee of $105 or you may submit a request at any time other than the renewal period, along with your original license and a change of status fee of $15.
How can I reactivate my inactive license?
If you did not renew your license during the previous renewal cycle, you must complete 15 hours of continuing education. This total includes 3 hours of legal update continuing education. View our upcoming CAM Continuing Education courses.

Cyril Bennis is set to boldly go where no Irishman has gone before – into space.
The countdown is on and the 65-year-old has already spent more than €70,000 on his mission to get into orbit.
The former hotel worker has completed his last round of space training in Philadelphia and is all set for take off.
Cyril, who can't drive a car, hopes to be aboard a Lynx spacecraft which will blast off from the States next year.
He said: "It would be nice to be the first Irishman in space, but also equally to be the first Limerick man in space.
"It's a very proud moment for me. I've secured my wings and I'll now be able to go up into space.
"I would never have thought growing up in Limerick that one day I'd reach the high heights of space."
Originally from the Fairgreen in Limerick city, Cyril said he doesn't drive or own a car, but has been deemed
medically fit by the British Medical Association to fly an airplane. He has been obsessed with space travel since US astronaut John Glenn, who orbited the earth in 1962, visited his school.
In preparation for his mission Cyril has been getting used to floating in zero gravity at a facility in Kansas.
He said: "I'm glad all the training is behind me now, because it has been a very intense and extreme time for me going through this space course.
"I'm doing everything I can to make sure I'm in peak condition – it's not like getting the bus down to Tralee.
"This is a very serious and important step forward for space tourism."
Cyril hopes to orbit next year as a passenger along with a pilot in a Lynx ex-corps craft.
He has already had a near-space experience in a converted Boeing 727 airliner over Florida when he actually floated.
Cyril told how he "worked hard and saved hard" to be in a financial position to reach space.
He said: "People say, 'What the hell are you doing this for?' I want to be part of space travel for the next generation."

Travel Date: Friday, February 17, 2017
We all wake up early and wait outside for our bus by 8 AM. Everyone is a little groggy. And you can tell the morning people from the non-morning people. We are going to tour the south part of Iceland, on what is called the Golden Circle tour.
Our bus finally arrives and we board it.
I guess we are all on the left side of the bus, except for Jon. He had to be 'that guy.' 🙂
The sun rises, and we can actually see outside.
We make a pit stop in a small town: Hveragerði
It looks like everyone is either heading for the restrooms or the Bakery and coffeehouse.
Dang! There is a line here too?
I noticed the Hverabraud (rye bread baked with hot spring steam). So I decide to purchase it.
There is a lot more goodies to get.
I think I'm also going to get the Pizza.
But first I have to take a number. It looks like I'm number 86.
Finally, after a short wait in line, and a cold pizza slice but filling for my belly, we get back on board the bus and drive off. More small mountains along the way.
We stop at Kerið: a pictureque lake created inside a volcanic crater.
I begin walking up the hill.
And take a few panoramic photos. This was one of the better ones.
Other mountains in the distance.
At one of the small peaks of Kerið.
The crater view from that peak.
I continue walking. As you can see the ground is muddy and a little slippery.
I noticed the pathway to the bottom, and I really really want to go down there. But I only have 10 minutes left. Going down is not the problem, but running back up is.
I decide to go back to the bus.
It starts to trickle.
We stop by Faxi. It is a smaller waterfall, with a Salmon Ladder on the left. This is the picture from the top of the hill.
I quickly walk down since we don't have much time to spend experiencing this view. This is Salmon Ladder.
A panorama view of Faxi waterfall.
And a video.
I notice a trail and follow it.
A different look at the Faxi waterfall.
Now it is time to walk up the Salmon Ladder.
The view from the top of Salmon Ladder.
And the Faxi Waterfall.
I quickly jog back to the bus. I slipped a couple of times. It is getting wetter and slicker, and I need to watch my step.
We stop. Time to walk around.
And in the distance I see the waterfall: Gullfoss
It is a thing of beauty.
I decide to get a closer look.
I head back on the path.
And towards the center point, where you can walk to the lower level.
If it is a raining, watch those steps and grab the railing.
As I walk on the lower level, I notice the walls on either side. So dark, full of character, and probably interesting stories.
The view at the lower level is more intimate and a different perspective.
I walk back up and head back to the tour bus.
We are all wet, and ready for lunch.
We turn around and head back to Reykavik. But first a stop at the Geysir attraction, and the tourist trapping of winter wear and food.
The lines are quite long.
I go for the Traditional Lambmeat Soup for kr 1790 or roughly US $17.90.
And looking at the Icelandic beer selection I grab an Einstok Arctic Pale Ale
I ended up having lunch with strangers, meeting new people, and sharing travel stories. After lunch, I walked over to the Geysir.
The views of the mountains, and the geysir run off was beautiful.
It looks like people are walking over and heading to the left side.
I follow the crowd.
And patiently wait for the eruption.
Moments after the eruption.
And when the water gets sucked back in.
The full video
I decide to walk around to the other side and get a different perspective.
I forgot that the mountains were in the background.
And the size of the eruption is quite large.
Time to head back to the bus, and get away from this light rain trickle.
We make our way to Thingvellir National Park to see the fissures separate between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.
The surrounding landscape is beautiful.
We begin our walk to the fissures.
There are lots of people, and lots of photo takers.
The lone Icelandic flag waving in the background.
In the distance is the Althing, the national parliament of Iceland, which was established at the site in 930 AD. Sessions were held at the location until 1798.
I continue walking.
I get to the top of the fissure.
I just wish the clouds weren't so gloomy. But the landscape makes up for it.
It is time to head back to the bus.
All of us are tired, and ready to crash. I take a power nap on the bus ride.
We arrive back at the apts.
And I try a piece of the Hverabraud. It is tasty.
After a nice long nap, and phone charging, it is time to pre-game before going out.
We are all in a jovial mood.
Walking around the various streets of Iceland.
Graffiti? or Street Art??
We stop by the famous hot dog stand: Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur, and grab some hot dogs.
After the obligatory touristy hot dog trial, we head back to the center of the city, and debate where to dine at for our real dinner.
Ben, Dionna, and I decide to venture out for some local Iceland food. We stop at the Geysir Bistro.
I love the random local art in various locations.
Dinner was visually stimulating, and delicious.
Ben and I didn't want him or her to be lonely.
We walked around to meet up with others, who plan to "Lead Us into Temptation." 🙂
They decided to go to a Mexican restaurant El Santo.
It was a short reunion. By the time we got there, they had already begun closing their tab. And then we all headed back home. So much for leading us into temptation!
Things to appreciate:
- Cassie organizing the Golden Circle bus tour, and having someone shuttle you around.
- Tasting hot steam baked bread: Hverabraud
- The various attractions: Kerid, Faxi, Gullfoss, Geysir, Thingvellir National Park
- The pre-gaming shots that I'm too old for, walking down the streets of Reykjavik with my new friends, and being a little tipsy and jovial.
- The delicious local hot dog
- The wonderful food and company at Geysir Bistro
- My Samsung mobile phone and the amazing camera it comes with/
- Bus Tour: $68.00 (Golden Circle)
- Breakfast: $8.52 (Almar Bakari Hveragerdi: kr: 940 )
- Lunch: $24.82 (Geysir Haukadal: kr 2740)
- Dinner: $61.10 (Geysir bistro og bar: kr 6750)

Extracting The Maximum Benefits From Tutoring Classes
There are certain instances where the things you are taught inside the classroom are simply not enough for you to comprehend a certain subject area. Even worse, there may arise a situation where you simply cannot understand one particular subject, no matter how hard you try or study by yourself. What you have to do in these situations is not to get desperate, but rather to search for a possible solution to get you back on track.
What you need to do in cases like this is finding a good tutor to help you. No matter whether it is a maths tutor in Sydney or an English teacher who conducts group classes, make sure to follow these few guidelines to get the best out of your tutoring sessions.
Teaching Experience is Not Everything
Ideally, you want to get help from somebody who has a lot of years of experience in the field of teaching. Nevertheless, even young graduates can do well if you need help with specific subject areas, especially those that were revised or added recently to the syllabus. Therefore, while teaching experience cannot be overlooked, it doesn't portray the whole picture. Keep that in mind.
Schedule a Proper Time to Conduct Classes
You should always try to get your tutor to teach you at specific times of the week. Depending on a tutor's availability and his or her own schedule, dates may get re-arranged and your classes may be postponed. Nevertheless, make sure that the tutor does conduct classes on a regular basis, or you are the one who will fall behind in the end.
An HSC maths tutor will be able to understand you better if you provide sufficient oral feedback regarding the lessons. Make sure to ask your tutor questions, especially if you cannot clearly understand some important parts of the lesson. Keep in touch with your tutor and provide answers when required. A good level of communication will definitely enhance your learning experience, as it allows your tutor to adjust to your learning style accordingly.
Get Evaluated
A tutor may decide to give you certain mock exams in order to test your knowledge from time. Although these are not mandatory, make sure to take them seriously, as they can be important to gauge your level of understanding of subject materials. Try to do these exams without getting assistance from the tutor, to see whether you can do most of the questions alone. After you get graded, start discussing the difficult parts with the tutor to correct your mistakes.
Change Classes When Necessary
Sometimes, the first tutor you selected may not be a good fit for your needs. Two or three sessions are enough to tell whether you should continue with a particular tutor, or if finding somebody else is a much better idea. In the latter case, feel free to find a better tutor, as there are plenty available nowadays.

In a cantina on Junction, an Outer-Worlds trading post more awesome than Mos Eisley or Anchorhead, Valance kills Marko Tyne, a man wanted in nine systems for unlicensed slaving. He claims the bounty, makes two patrons carry the body, and leaves. Having spent five weeks on Junction, he gives the bounty to Skinker, a salvager who provides droids to destroy and helps find "the boy and the droids." Returning to his ship, he muses how in his search he's learned enough of Rebel supply methods to predict their arrival on Junction. In the Gordian Reach, Luke and 3PO see a Star Destroyer and use an asteroid belt to cover their trip to Junction to find parts for R2 and open trade routes around the blockade. When they visit Skinker's salvage yard, he sees a "boy and his droid" and sends an employee, Polyp, to get Valance. Leia stands atop the Massassi base worrying about Han and Luke, then tells Dodonna that as a leader she should act, but he refuses to let her go. Valance kills a spy headed to warn Vader of Skinker's find, vowing to catch Luke before him. As Luke grows leary of Skinker, Valance enters and fires. Luke shoves 3PO, Skinker, and Polyp through a closing door, but Valance blasts it, stunning all but 3PO, who scurries out a secret exit. He tries to shoot 3PO, but Luke fights him with his saber, a deflected blast revealing Valance's Borg implants. When Luke and 3PO offer to die to save the other and 3PO shows compassion for his plight, Valance grows confused and angry, sparing them. Perplexed, the Rebels gather supplies and return home, certain they'll see Valance again.

Recently we sent out requests through modern means, including social media, and more traditional means, such as posters on our shop windows and word of mouth requesting local designers craftspeople and artists to contact us if they wanted an outlet to stock and sell their lovingly crafted creations.
So far fifteen local designers in Claygate and Surbiton have made contact. We are methodically seeing them and their products. Some have declined to participate but we are having continuing dialogue with most of the others and we are still encouraging yet more to contact us.
Why did we do this?
Although Hoi Polloi has always tried to be different from most gift shops and lifestyle boutiques it has been increasingly hard to find traditional giftware, home ware, furniture and card companies who are doing things just that bit different from each other .We have always felt we had been successful at doing this over the past eighteen years. However, we have become increasingly aware over the past twelve months or so that these traditional companies have become a little too safe in their new products. Many are copying, or at least imitating each other, which means many new products look similar to one another and true creativity although still happening, in some cases, is occurring less and less frequently. Fortunately we have been mainly successful in finding new companies and sticking with the ones who are bucking the sameness trend and being adventurous.
However the result of this trend is like most of the modern high streets, gift shops and the like have been increasingly looking the same and not offering real choice to discerning shoppers.
Thus we have a vacancy in our shops for more diverse products, items that are truly different from the vast majority of other shops.
One option open to us would be to source products from other countries ourselves rather than letting giftware and home ware companies do this for us and buying their products at trade fairs. This way we would cut out the middleman/woman and make the selection process completely down to us. We still plan to do this in some areas and we have our eye on two European countries specifically,
The major alternative to this non UK approach is to look very closely on our own doorstep in Claygate, Surbiton and nearby areas for those local designers who are being particularly adventurous.
Over the past few years, we had been approached by quite a few local people who in their own words wanted to get their products "out there!"
Unfortunately, although we would have liked to help local craftspeople there were usually several stumbling blocks
Sometimes the product was simply not good enough, or poorly made. If we liked the product and quality was good it was normally too expensive. Mostly this was because the craftspeople didn't really understand wholesale prices and the costs of running a high street retail shop.
Sometimes designers wanted us to sell items in our shop for say £20 and would insist on selling directly to customers via their own website or Facebook for say £15. This meant that we were just a showroom and it made customers think we were relatively expensive if they were internet savvy.
Other times the products did not compare favourably with our existing mainstream stock and other times they just didn't complement our other ranges. Lastly some locals wanted their products to be stocked in other local shops too.
Of course, on a couple of occasions we just didn't have the foresight and played safe ourselves.
Ok then, what has changed?
The blandness and safety first approach of national suppliers (see above) has begun to annoy us.
Many local designers have really upped their game by increasing the quality of their products, designing products that people actually want and lowering their costs of production, or at least providing realistic wholesale prices. Such crafters have also worked hard to establish retail channels for themselves. For example, the "Made in Surbiton" group have been particularly successful and enterprising in establishing themselves at the growing number of local markets that have recently arisen in the wonderfully creative town of Surbiton.
We have endeavoured to create a new business model which we think is a win:win for Hoi Polloi and the local supplier. It enables the craftsperson to do what they like to do and what they do best, which is designing and creating their lovely products . At the same time it enables us to do what we like to do and what we do best and that is selling stuff that is both pretty and useful. This model won't work for every local craftsperson of course and nor should it. However it will work for many and it does encourage diversity and certainly helps artists who don't want to to spend a significant amount of time selling their own products directly to consumers.
We have really wanted to change our own mindset and we have become committed to boosting the local economy. It is the zeitgeist. Many people want to buy locally from local suppliers
Anyway, this week is a big week for us because we officially started stocking the lovely products of the first local company that has agreed to partner with us. This company is Better Bunting, a Surbiton based home business run by Rachel Crunkhorn. This week might be a big week for us; however today, Friday 30, will be a huge day for Rachel because she is getting married. So let's raise a glass to our new partnership and an even bigger glass to the bride and groom.
To finish, we encourage you to look in our Surbiton, Claygate and this online shop for more of our "Made in the Hood" products.

Alleviating poverty remains one of the key challenges in many developing economies. In Kenya, a recent nation-wide survey, the 2006 Kenya Integrated Household and Budget Survey, (KIHBS) finds that 46% of the total Kenyan population is absolutely poor, i.e. below the poverty line, whereas 49% of the rural population is absolutely poor (Kenya National Bureau of Statistics, 2007). The 1997 Welfare Monitoring Survey showed a poverty rate of 57% overall and 60% in the rural population.
There has, therefore, been some reduction in poverty across the country and across rural areas over the last decade. Poverty is not a static concept. People often move in and out of poverty from year to year. This is unsurprising in Sub-Saharan Africa, given that these economies mainly depend on agriculture and are dominated by seasonality and highly variable weather conditions.
Changes in poverty status can be due to economic cycles and shocks, such as poor weather, loss of employment, or loss of a major income earner through death, injury, or long illness. Adding to this, institutions for income and consumption smoothing in these economies are either inadequate or are absent altogether. Some households do manage to escape poverty, while others remain in poverty for extended periods of time.
Understanding what factors drive household movements in and out of poverty is extremely important for the design of poverty reduction strategies, and is still an open area of research. Addressing these issues requires panel data. The absence of such data has in the past limited the scope of poverty studies to looking at point-in-time behaviour across households to explain differences in consumption (or incomes). However, a large amount of household level panel data has become available in recent years in various developing economies, allowing broader and more authoritative studies on poverty.
These studies have generated a better understanding of the movement of households in and out of poverty over time, and have shown that those below the poverty line are a heterogeneous group, both across time and across households. The poor consist of those who are poor a large part of the time (chronic poor), and those whose who move in and out of poverty (transient poor). Alleviating chronic and transient poverty may require different policy responses. For example, chronic poverty may require long-term policies that build poor households' asset base, such as investment in human capital and land reform; transient poverty may be reduced by appropriate short-term measures focusing on consumption smoothing, such as insurance, targeted income transfers, food stamps, and subsidies.
This paper studies trends and dynamics in poverty and inequality in rural Kenya at the aggregate and household levels over the decade 1997 to 2007. Kenya has been described as highly unequal, ranking among the top ten most unequal countries in the world and fifth in Africa (SID, 2004). Inequality is worse in rural areas: the richest 20% of the rural and urban populations earn 62% and 51% of incomes, respectively (SID, 2004), while the bottom 20% earns 3.5 % of rural income and 5.4% of urban income (World Socialist Website, 2008).
The literature on inequality has documented the positive and negative effects it can have on growth, a relationship that has been shown to be extremely non-linear and the causality of which has been greatly debated (see Forbes, 2000 and Duflo and Banerjee, 2003). We will not address the effects of inequality on growth, but will document the trends and changes in rural incomes and inequality to broaden our description of the relative poor and better understand the distributional characteristics of the rural Kenyan economy. In addition to documenting these trends and changes, we analyze the correlates of poverty and the drivers of transitions in and out of poverty over this period.

|Runners in Berlin #berlinblackish2017
It was winter 2012 and I had my fuzzy slippers on, sipping on a cup of tea with my feet up flipping through my copy of Essence magazine when I read something about Black women runners. I took a mental note and thought one day I'll run something and went about my day. At the top of the year I met Shonda, my college friend for lunch, and she brought along another friend. Turns out, that friend belonged to the same organization I was reading about; Black Girls Run! I told her I was interested and in March I laced up my tennis shoes and went to my first Black Girls Run! I couldn't run to the mailbox at the time, but something inside told me I could do this and I listened.

POETRY Competition
Since 1994, National Poetry Day has engaged millions of people with poetry through a range of live events and web-based activities for people young and old throughout the country. To celebrate verse and encourage students to demonstrate their poetic flair, MPW Library decided to launch their first college-wide poetry writing competition in autumn 2013. The event attracted entries from all corners of the college, from Year-10 students to staff members.
Entrants were invited to write on the theme of Water, inspired by Coleridge's Mariner's famous cry: "water, water, everywhere". The entries were judged by an independent reader and awards given to each of the category winners. Prizes of £20 book tokens were awarded to Darius Amrolia (under-16s), Kolya Stubbs (over-16s) and Richard Martin (staff).
As well as staging the competition, we marked National Poetry Day in October with a trip to enjoy readings by big-name poets at the Southbank Centre, an outing which we hope will become an annual fixture in the college calendar.
Darius Amrolia's winning poem in the under-16s category is printed below and will appear, with the other poems, in a printed anthology compiled by the Library. Hopefully this will help to inspire others to enter next year's competition.
Water is the elixir of life.
Water can transport itself, bringing clean water to those who need it.
Water is forever changing, from the steam from your kettle to the ice in your Coke.
Water is a boomerang: when it leaves it always comes back.
Water can bless and caress you or it can batter and curse you.
A city takes centuries to build but it can fall in seconds.
Many have lost their lives to water: from a lack of it and too much.
Water is a transparent, colourless, odourless, tasteless, liquid and yet our lives depend on it.
Water is all this and more, but in the end it's just 2 hydrogens and 1 oxygen.

Ten Second Review
If you need a car that blends into the background, look somewhere else. Nissan's Juke is a small SUV that's sold like hot cakes because it makes a visual statement. The second generation version keeps the design extreme but adds more space, smarter looks, extra equipment, greater efficiency and plenty of personalisation options.
There's nothing quite like a Nissan Juke, part SUV, part sports coupe, part hot hatch - with a few bike and rallycar genes thrown in for good measure. It sounds an unpromising mix but against the odds, Nissan has made it work and in the original version of this car, defined once and for all what the market's smallest breed of crossover-class car should be like. Here's the second generation model. What was most amazing about the original Juke was that a company the size of Nissan could build it. The usual procedure is for a maverick designer to come up with just such a concept only for company heads to shelve it, for customer clinics to reject it or for marketing pressure to water it down. Somehow the earlier Juke survived all of these potential trapdoors and this MK2 model remains singularly the most distinctive family car on sale today.
Driving Experience
The Juke range kicks off in second generation form with the 1.0-litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine we've already seen in Nissan's Micra supermini, with either a six-speed manual gearbox or an all-new seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, replacing the CVT transmission previously offered. Power stands at 115hp with up to 200Nm of torque available on overboost. Nissan claims 0-62mph in 10.4 seconds for the manual and 11.1 seconds for the DCT automatic variant, with both topping out at 112mph. Expect a plug-in hybrid version to be added in due course. At the wheel, long-time Juke owners will find the driving position is massively improved - there's at last a reach-adjustable steering wheel and smart Monoform sports seats are standard. In the manual model, the gear lever now sits more purposefully on the centre console and operates with a shorter throw. Plus of course there's plenty of driver-assistance technology, primarily Nissan ProPILOT, the brand's semi-autonomous driver aid. This is capable of controlling the throttle, braking and steering while driving in a single lane on motorway-style roads. It's optional on N-Connecta trim cars and standard from Tekna grade upwards. In addition, the Juke gains intelligent automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, speed-limit and traffic-sign recognition, lane-keep assist and rear cross-traffic alert.
Design and Build
Yes, the Juke does still look like either something dredged up from the abyssal depths of the ocean or a fun, friendly and futuristic little runabout, depending on your perspective. Whichever camp you're in, you have to hand it to Nissan for not losing its resolve and watering this design down. Buyers of the original model will recognise this second generation version with its exaggerated wheel arches, rising window line, strong shoulders and a squat rear end. The full-LED circular headlights placed high on the front bumper reference those of the original Juke's, and feature a new Y-shaped signature. Above them sit new, slim LED daytime running lights that flank the nose and a narrow grille. This MK2 model is 35mm wider and 75mm longer nose to tail than before, but most significantly, the wheelbase has increased by 105mm. It certainly appears a larger, more spacious car. The cabin delivers on that promise, with rear knee room increasing by 58mm and headroom growing by 11mm. Sitting on top of the revised fascia is a new 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, while some cars will also be available with a seven-inch colour driver-information display within the instrument panel. Out back, the hatch is 131mm wider than before and it accesses a boot that's now 422-litres in size, an increase of 68-litres over the first generation model.
Market and Model
Juke pricing starts at about £17,400 for a base 'Visia' model, but another £1,600 is needed for the mid-range 'Acenta' trim level most will want. The popular 'N-Connecta' version costs from around £21,000, while plush 'Tekna' trim costs from around £22,500. 'Tekna+' is the top version. Scope for exterior personalisation has always been key to Juke ownership, so this MK2 model can feel very bespoke if you want it to be. It's available in 11 different colours, with wheels ranging from 16-inch steel rims with covers to 19-inch alloys. Top-spec Tekna+ cars are available with contrasting finishes on the roof and mirrors, too. Buyers will also want cutting-edge media connectivity, so on-board Wi-Fi now appears, as do TomTom maps with live traffic and a voice-controlled Google Assistant. The NissanConnect remote services app is now compatible with the Juke, allowing owners to interact with their cars from wherever they are via their smartphone. Three optional interior schemes in orange, white or black introduce leather and Alcantara upholstery, too. All cars from Acenta grade upwards get the latest eight-inch infotainment unit as standard, while every car gets cruise control with a speed limiter function and high beam assist.
Cost of Ownership
The second generation Juke is looking to retain its predecessor's reputation as being inexpensive to run and should deliver on that promise thanks to an all-new 1.0-litre three cylinder engine and a 23kg reduction in weight, despite this model's increase in size. The weight improvement is down to the use of more lightweight, high-tension steel in the body, plus the introduction of a new CMF-B Nissan/Renault Alliance platform, shared with one of its closest rivals, the second generation Renault Captur. All of this should mean a competitive set of running cost stats. From the manual model, expect a WLTP-rated combined cycle fuel figure of 47.9mpg and a WLTP-rated CO2 figure of 135g/km. Service intervals will come round every 12 months or 12,500 miles, depending on which comes soonest. As part of any Nissan dealer visit with your car, you'll be provided with a free courtesy vehicle and a video health check for your Juke that you can watch on your 'phone or computer. Nissan also provides a three year, 60,000-mile warranty as standard and that can be lengthened to four years but with the same mileage cap. This recognises that most drivers of small SUVs tend to cover lower distances, but aims to give added peace of mind for those looking to keep their car for longer. And in case of any problems, there's breakdown assistance with roadside help included with the car's protection package.

Canada's winters can be extremely harsh, so it is little wonder that so many of its citizen head south, just like its famous geese, for the winter. However, before you join the hoards of snowbirds flocking to the southern U.S. to enjoy some warm, sunny weather, there are a few things you should know.
Length of Stay
According to the Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada website, Canadians are allowed to stay in the United States for a maximum of 182 days, approximately six months, during every twelve-month period. Be very careful when determining how long you have stayed in the United States. Every day you have entered the U.S. during a 12-month calendar year will count towards your total number of days.
Why is the number of days you stay in the United States important? Because if you go over the six-month threshold, you will be liable to pay taxes in both Canada and the United States, which could be a huge financial burden, especially for snowbirds, who are typically retired senior citizens.
Supplementary Medical Insurance
If you are a snowbird who is planning to spend an extended period of time in the United States, you should definitely look into purchasing supplementary travel medical insurance. While your Canadian provincial health plan does provide some minimal medical coverage for travelers, it does not cover nearly as much as you will more than likely need if you were to get in an accident or get sick while in the United States.
Although you may be tempted to try and save money by not purchasing supplementary medical insurance, don't do it. You will definitely regret this decision later if you should get injured or sick while in the United States. Hospital bills in the U.S. are exorbitant and you could quickly find yourself hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt before you know what hit you.
In addition, your premiums for a supplementary health-care plan can usually be claimed on your tax return as a medical expense.
Check Your Provincial Health Plan Coverage
Before shopping for supplementary health plan insurance, check with your province or territory to see what out-of-the country medical expenses your provincial health plan covers. That way you will know exactly what type of additional coverage you will need.
What to Look For in a Supplementary Medical Insurance
You should look over any supplementary health insurance policy carefully before committing to one. Some plans may not cover pre-existing conditions.
If you are a snowbird who migrates south on a regular basis, try to find a company that can offer you annual multi-trip coverage.
The snowbird lifestyle is a wonderful one that allows you to enjoy the best of both the United States and Canada. It is always important, however, to take the necessary steps to ensure that your travels won't end up costing you in the long run.

GlaxoSmithKline will update the product label for Advair with a new warning that tells doctors to limit the use of the drug only to patients who are not controlled on other asthma drugs, or have such severe cases.
This follows a 26,000 patient study that found a higher death rate in patients treated with salmeterol, one of the ingredients in Advair. The death data were already in the label in a black-box warning, but now the label also includes tells doctors to restrict use of the powerful combination asthma drug to patients who really need it.
"[S]almeterol] one of the active ingredients in ADVAIR DISKUS may increase the risk of asthma-related death. Therefore, when treating patients with asthma, physicians should only prescribe ADVAIR DISKUS for patients not adequately controlled on other asthma controller medications…or whose disease severity clearly warrants initiation of treatments with two maintenance therapies," is on the label now.
There is also a new label for Serevent.

A-G Sued Over Constitutional Amendment
Marietta Brew Appiah-Oppong
The proposed amendment of certain aspects of the 1992 Constitution could be in jeopardy following a suit filed against the Attorney-General by Professor Stephen Kwaku Asare.
According to the Professor of law, the President has no power to set up a commission to initiate amendments or draft amendment bills to the Constitution as is currently being done.
He therefore, filed the suit at the Supreme Court challenging the executive arm of government for what he described as 'the President's usurpation of Parliamentary powers and misappropriation of Article 278(1).'
The plaintiff wants a declaration that 'the Constitution Review Commission of Inquiry Instrument, 2010, C.I. 64 is null, void and of no effect as it contravenes the letter and spirit of Article 289(1) of the 1992 Constitution, in that the effect, if not the intended purpose, of C.I. 64 is to usurp powers that the 1992 Constitution expressly, exclusively and specifically conferred to Parliament.'
He wants another declaration that the powers granted to the President under Article 278(1) to 'appoint a commission of inquiry into any matter of public interest' does not include the power to establish a commission to review and propose amendment bills to the Constitution where such powers to review and propose amendment bills to the Constitution have been expressly, exclusively and specifically conferred to Parliament.
The plaintiff further wants a declaration that Article 278(1) does not grant the President 'an all-purpose commissioning power' but only gives him the power to commission an independent inquiry to investigate and establish the truth relating to an entity's affairs, activities or some specific occurrence that is in the public interest.
Prof. Asare is praying the highest court of the land to declare that the Constitution Review Implementation Committee (CRIC) set up by the President to finalize amendment bills for both the entrenched and non-entrenched provisions is alien to the Constitution, among other reliefs.
Summary Of Particulars
Professor Stephen Kwaku Asare
It is the contention of the Plaintiff that 'the Constitution can only be amended by its terms' and added that 'Parliament is the sole body that can initiate, consider and propose amendments to the Constitution.'
'Parliament's power to amend the Constitution is not only plenary and exclusive, but also cannot be delegated to or usurped by the President… The President's role in constitutional amendment is limited to the ministerial task of giving assent to bills properly passed by Parliament,' the plaintiff averred.

NEW YORK, Sep 28 2018 (IPS) – With the rise of violent extremism worldwide has come the stereotyping of an entire religion. In many countries and across many borders, Muslims have been vilified for events they are just as outraged at.
Yet instead of working together to foster a common understanding and mutual respect, we have seen otherwise liberal countries shut their borders and suppress culture. At a time of extreme intolerance, it is increasingly important that we recognize the importance of working together toward shared global interests of peace and prosperity.
As an increasing number of Muslim-majority nations take a stand against extremism practiced in the name of their faith, people around the world are working across borders to promote cross-cultural understanding and tolerance.
At a time when so much of what we hear is about the ill in the world, we have a duty to celebrate the critical work that happens every day to ensure the "battle of ideas" in the global fight against extremism is not lost to those who preach violence rather than peace.
This is the work of the Global Hope Coalition, which shines a light on both the governments and the everyday heroes standing up to violence and intolerance in their countries and around the world—and those who are joining with them in the fight. At this year's annual dinner they recognize those who have taken a stand against extremists invoking religion for the purposes of perpetrating terror.
Take for example Niger, a majority Muslim country, which is increasingly at the center of a vast struggle for power in Africa's Sahel region. After the retreat of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, Niger has seen a massive uptick in extremist threats as the Sahel region has become an active theater for ISIS and jihadi terrorists.
Niger's government under the leadership of President Mahamadou Issoufou has been an outspoken critic of violent extremism in the name of Islam and has advocated a tolerant and peaceful vision of the religion. The country has worked hard to build regional alliances against terrorist groups in the Sahel region.
At a time of great challenge, when many would retrench, Niger has worked to strengthen the rule of law and the country's constitutional institutions, while respecting the separation of powers. Perhaps most heartening was the more than $23 billion from donor countries pledged to Niger at a two-day "Niger Renaissance Conference" in Paris in December 2017.
Niger is not alone.
Muslim-majority countries are standing up to extremists and proving the actions of a select few do not define an entire religion. But the global community's response has been inadequate. Largely fueled by stereotypes created and driven by ISIS and al-Qaeda, Muslims have been demonized, attacked, and shut out of a number of otherwise tolerant nations.
Many global efforts to lift up anti-extremism efforts have been nebulously structured at best and ineffectual at worst. And crucially, some wealthier western countries have failed to be shining beacons of tolerance and prosperity whose principles they were founded upon and have instead hid behind thinly veiled xenophobia. All that while continuing to expect fealty from Muslim allies.
This cowardice is not the answer – in any part of the world. Instead of turning a blind eye to good faith efforts to stand up to common enemies, the global community must rally around them like they did for Niger in 2017.
That's why governments and heads of state are only one piece of the equation. Equally important, but far less public, are the thousands upon thousands of individuals in towns and cities throughout the world working every day to stand up to extremism, fight intolerance, and work towards peace in their communities.
Just as the international community must rally around natural allies in this fight, so too must it uplift and encourage the everyday heroes and on-the-ground change makers – like, for instance, this year's Global Hope Heroes Sherin Khankan and Omer Al-Turabi. Khankan, a female imam and daughter of a Syrian refugee, has led the creation of a women-led mosque in Copenhagen to promote a tolerant, peaceful Islam true to its original precepts.
Al-Turabi is a prominent Sudanese author and academic who has become a leading voice among younger generations in the Arab world seeking peace and a liberal future for their countries.
Both Khankan and Al-Turabi have faced tremendous obstacles to their efforts – yet both have been unwavering in their efforts to win the battle for hearts and minds. There are countless more like them, and that is why Global Hope's work is so important. By providing resources and valuable organization and networking opportunities to heroes just like these, progress can – and will – take shape.
The UN General Assembly gives us an annual opportunity to reflect on what can be accomplished by thoughtful and meaningful multilateral action. This year, under existential threats to our way of life and a global order built on cooperation, the takeaway couldn't be clearer: We must choose peace, and we must stand with those who fight for it.
*Abe Radkin is International Coordinator of the Global Hope Coalition

*Today is a beautiful day because we are finally seeing the tide change to positive, enlightening music from our young people in the hip hop world that want to see a change in a trend shared in the culture of hip hop … SAGGING PANTS! The good book says, "… and a little child shall lead them."
And this one is goin' in!
Amor "Lilman" Arteaga is a nine-year-old rapping phenom who gets the crowd crunk with positive rap.
His latest project focuses on young men all over the planet that somehow think that showing half or sometimes ALL of their behind threw "saggin'" their pants is somehow cool.
There have been various explanations for the origin of this repugnant trend, but the most popular is that it started from prison culture.
The inmate would sag their pants and expose their butt to show they were available for sex. Why oh why could that catch on as a trend by straight men in hip hop (i.e. Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Big Sean, etc)
Young men on the street walk around exposing their sometimes dirty underwear and Arteaga is tired of it. He along with his dad, took the summer to write the lyrics and film the video in their Brooklyn neighborhood of Flatbush. As you will see, he has plenty of support from the community as well as local politicians and he is a really talented young man. The song, "Pull Ya Pants Up!" should be played on every radio station from here to Jupiter in an effort to kill this disgusting trend.
At nine years old, even Arteaga has sense enough to know that it is not sensible and gives a negative image of the men that choose to do it. He told Newsone:
"It's disrespectful showing your butt off," said Amor, a fourth-grader at PS 92 on Parkside Ave. "I'm always seeing boys, girls, rappers, singers — everyone is sagging out."
The video begins with him starting off the campaign with the help of Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz on the steps of Borough Hall in Downtown Brooklyn.

Newington's Mark Glover rounds up an eventful week in politics.
Kicking off the week in Westminster was a speech from the Prime Minister designed to reassure business worried about the forthcoming Brexit negotiations. In it Theresa May outlined that the ability for the UK to make final decisions on immigration policy and no longer remain under the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice were her two red lines. The response to the speech from European spokespeople who reiterated that the four freedoms of the European Union were indivisible, meant that it looks more and more likely that the UK is moving towards a hard Brexit and that the City's concerns, chiefly around passporting and access to markets, outlined effectively by TheCityUK later in the week, may well be realised.
Tuesday saw a relaunch of a more populist Corbyn 2.0. This relaunch, which had the intention of showing the Leader of the Opposition as being more in line with ordinary people and those that supported Brexit, was somewhat undermined by a failure on the part of Jeremy Corbyn to hold his line on limits to migration and raising in his speech the prospect of 'caps on pay', without having the policy answers to support his position.
Wednesday started better for Labour as the focus was on the National Health Service and the looming crisis in hospitals caused by the onset of a particularly hard winter and the release of figures showing many NHS Trusts had missed their targets. PMQs saw Theresa May under pressure from Corbyn who devoted all six of his questions to the NHS and what is clearly comfortable ground for Labour. However, Labour's team did seem to demonstrate a lack of political insight by later in the day press releasing Corbyn's position on UK troop deployments increasing tension with Russia that made Labour's Defence Secretary, Nia Griffith, livid and gave the papers an opportunity to report something other than the NHS.
Yet the NHS discussion didn't go away and Simon Stevens, the Head of the NHS, challenged the PM in his appearance before a select committee by seeming to contradict the Government's position that the NHS was being given all the money it needs. Saying that the Government's statements were not accurate and that the NHS indeed was facing severe pressures. With the onset of extreme cold conditions over the next few weeks across much of the UK, this issue is likely to rumble on across the winter months and if Labour can keep the focus on the NHS, then in normal times you would expect them to see some improvement in their polling position.
The domestic week though was somewhat overshadowed by the forthcoming inauguration of Donald Trump as the next President of the United States and nominally leader of the free world. Questions over his relationship with Russia dominated for both him and his intended Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, who faced a Senate confirmation meeting. One thing is certain, Donald Trump captures the attention of the world at his press conferences, rare though they are.

Emergency Operations Plan
The Cabarrus County Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) addresses multiple hazards that could threaten our County and its citizens and supersedes all previous versions. The EOP uses a functional format and employs the National Incident Management System (NIMS), a nationwide standardized approach to incident management and response. NIMS establishes a uniform set of processes and procedures that emergency responders will use to conduct response operations.
This EOP establishes a framework of policy and guidance for County disaster preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation operations. The EOP consists of the basic plan and 18 functional annexes. These annexes define responsibilities and actions of County government personnel during emergency situations. The definition of the missions of each response agency reduces confusion and conflict during emergency operations and significantly decreases vulnerability of the public and their property to hazards that develop in emergency situations. This EOP (and annexes) consider planning and response activities related to children, those with functional needs, household pets, and service animals.
This EOP meets the requirements of the Department of Homeland Security state and local planning guidance, and the legal responsibilities identified in NC General Statutes, Chapter 166-A. This EOP provides all the necessary elements to ensure that Cabarrus County can fulfill its legal responsibilities for emergency preparedness.
Public Access To The Emergency Operations Plan
Those parts of the plan that deal with the preparations for and response to terrorism are for official use only and will not be made available to the public. Copies of the plan may be obtained from the Emergency Management Department at the fee charged by Cabarrus County for copies of public documents.

My passion is definitely Orthopedic Trauma. That is where I can do the most good. Being able to restore a severely injured person back to normal is why I am an Orthopedic Surgeon.
My elective practice focuses on the lower extremity. I am well known in B.C. for my advanced training in foot and ankle problems. I also perform a large number knee reconstructive procedures, including knee replacement, and knee arthroscopy.
I try to consider the entire limb – well…the entire person really – a poorly aligned femur, knee or tibia has dramatic effects on the function of the foot and ankle.
