Story behind the Recycled in Africa Bags:
After seeing a pile of discarded tarpaulins and banners, we thought to ourselves, it's an absolute sin that all of this P.V.C would land up being carelessly thrown away into the ocean or a landfill. Sadly to say, this is true, over 900 000 tons of P.V.C gets thrown into the ocean. So we began to think to ourselves, how can we give all of this P.V.C a second chance? Why not minimize the amount of pollution that our planet Earth is already fighting against? So we took up the challenge and decided to take waste and turn it into something that people use in their day to day lives. We found some safety belts and put them to the use of being strong handles, we then got our hands on some bicycle tubing, which came to the use as the perfect seam. By buying a Recycled in Africa bag, you are playing the role of taking 1KG of P.V.C out of the ocean. Not only does Recycled in Africa take trash and turn it into treasure by recycling, but we also create job opportunities for those who are unemployed by hiring locally, we have two trained women who seam our bags as well as two men who cut the P.V.C to perfection.
Having the highest ranked emerging economy on the continent, it's quite clear that this country at the most southern tip of Africa, paints an impressive picture. Arresting as the land is, as with many places, it is mottled with problems. The world has watched us emerge from the bitter furnace of apartheid and then noted our lack of compassion and empathy when our asylum seeking neighbours were ostracised and dehumanised by us, the very people who were forced to suffer the same breed or intolerance and inhumanity.
Clutching a bright crumpled plastic bag with loud chequered patterning of the kind seen everywhere from China to Nigeria, packed to the brim with the few material possessions they own, the refugees, nomads and wanderers march towards the hope of salvation, despite their hardships.
Unglamorous and functional, these bags have come to be known as tools of utility for those migrating from one country to another in search of a better life for themselves. I recognised a need to have a brand that resonates with these individuals whilst creating a nostalgic feeling, By repetition of the tartan pattern and colouration on the bags, Dennis reintroduced the aesthetic paired with a concept embracing the recreational everyday use of it by a broad demographic of people.
Having studied at Lisof and trained at Strangelove, worked for the likes of David Tlale for whom he headed the Exodus menswear range in 2007, Stoned Cherrie accessories department 2009 for which he designed bags for Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls, Dennis Chuene then decided to venture on his own and started Vernac bags
Vernac is short for vernacular, and a vernacular is the native language or native dialect of a specific population. An untold story needed to be told in an array of dialects of not only the people in our land, but all lands, and thus Vernac was born. To encompass the vast number of indigenous languages spoken by the disadvantaged from all over the world
In 2011 he moved to Cape Town to find a wealth of industry resources which afforded him the opportunity to create a variety of fabrications to offer product diversification. Now no longer just bags, Vernac is now a fully-fledged apparel brand with greater product offering. The bright crumpled plastic bag with loud chequered patterning of the kind seen everywhere from China to Nigeria is now available in wool as a sweater, cotton as a shirt, bull denim as a jacket, canvas as a backpack and finished off as subtle detail on hems (only visible when turned up), under collar of coats shirts and jackets as well as home wear pieces like scatter cushions.
Through progressive product growth and innovation, Vernac serves to celebrate Africans in the Diaspora as well as the rags to riches of the previously disadvantaged by making use of "the bright crumpled plastic bag with loud chequered patterning of the kind seen everywhere from China to Nigeria". Thus to have name these emblems of tortured migrating souls, Dennis, would be claiming a historic aesthetic value for personal enrichment.
Why the brand started: Ballo was started when I saw some wooden sunglasses and thought, "that's pretty cool, I reckon I could do that". I did some market research and the biggest problem I found with existing wooden frames in the market was durability. Wooden frames typically couldn't be fit with prescription lenses and would break pretty easily when put under any strain. I then started my Ballo and after 6 months of R&D with a local engineer, I was happy with styling, quality and durability. All our frames can be fit with prescription lenses and are as durable as any other quality eyewear frames. Sustainability was another core concern and we addressed this when considering materials. The materials we settled on for our frames is a combination of wood veneer offcuts (from local furniture manufacturers) and a recycled paper material, which are laminated together at 95 degrees celsius under 40 tons of pressure with a bioresin.
How I keep it local: Ballo is all about local, every pair is made in Cape Town, by locals. Even the name is local, to me anyway, Ballo comes from my last name, Barnes, and my Mum's maiden name, Gallo, combined. With sustainability being one of my core principles I aimed to source every material locally (not always possible, but we try), we make every pair of eyewood by hand with love in Cape Town (being made by hand, it follows that to increase production, we must employ more people. Luckily we have continued to grow and I'm proud to say I'm doing my little bit to combat South Africa's biggest challenge, unemployment). We also support and work with various local NGO's and NPO's on a variety of projects to give back to the local community and are embarking on a skills development and empowerment project with women's shelters in Salt River and Nyanga.
What inspires me: Natures incredible colours, diversity and adaptability. The reason I love Cape town, is our incredible proximity to nature, I can be in the sea or on a mountain in 10 minutes. I find similar inspiration in the people of our country- incredibly diverse, colourful and resourceful. Just walking down the street in Woodstock gives me great joy: smiling strangers, seeing peoples faces light up when you greet them in their native tongue, seeing women in their colorful ShweShwe prints.

A perfect day for me starts early, as the sun rises so shall I. A hot cup of Rooibos tea with raw ginger slices, a lemon wedge, and a touch of honey with the dunk of a home made rusk is what kick starts my engine. A healthy diet leads to a healthy outlook on life in my world, which results in effective creativity and the needed energy.
I like to be busy and generally always have things occupying my time, whether it be working on new designs and managing my businesses, searching for another perfect remote getaway with untouched waves, or spending time with my family, I always have things to get stuck into and keep my passions alive. The balance between all of these is the key to a healthy lifestyle and mind. They are where I find my inspiration and vital to my success. The lifestyle I live is the essence of what my brand is built on and essentially stands for.
Many of the products I create come about due to a personal need in my day to day life. I am always analysing the structures and make up of the things that surround me, and how they could potentially be improved. Very often there are things I need or desire in my world, which do not exist. This is generally my starting point, and where things begin to take shape. Ideas will begin to bounce around my mind, in and out, eventually the strong ones remain and the weak ones lost. From here the sketch pad comes out and the conceptual ideas are are transported onto paper, reworked and understood, before being dialled into the computer and refined for prototyping, and then production.
Some of my most recent creations consist of an tablet stand, which is a simple single part that allows for horizontal and vertical orientation of the tablet and multiple screen angles.
A clean three part laptop stand that encourages a better posture through ergonomics and keeps your laptop cooler by encouraging air flow under and around your device, it then packs up into a compact and durable form.
Laptop and iPad sleeves that protect your devices, and offer an exterior compact storage pocket made from upcycled advertising billboard mesh.
'Amped' speaker is a natural wooden amplifier for your smartphone that requires no power other than the sounds of your phone. The sound is channeled in a particular way through the wooden form, which results in an amplified sound output.

Super Meat Boy's initially day of sales on the Nintendo Switch had been apparently "shockingly close" to how the activity performed when it was initially released on Xbox 360 back again in 2010 in accordance to the game's developer.
The platformer debuted on the Switch last Thursday together with a lot of other online games like Furi and Escapists 2. While some online games have experienced a tendency to promote far better on Nintendo's handheld than other platforms, probably thanks in aspect to much less level of competition from the scaled-down all round activity library, Workforce Meat was even now astonished by the numbers it noticed. "Super Meat Boy on Switch initially day sales arrived shockingly near to it is debut on Xbox 360 back again in 2010," the studio tweeted yesterday. "That's. nuts."
how to have two of the same apps android
Unlike some ports that have arrive with new modes or small expansions, the Switch variation of Super Meat Boy isn't even all that various from individuals that did so perfectly on Pc and other consoles over the last 8 several years. Exterior of a new two-player splitscreen method exactly where individuals can race just one a further, the game's the same. Whether it is a further illustration of individuals getting inclined to re-buy everything the moment it gets released on the Switch, or individuals are merely completely ready to revisit just one of the great indie online games of the last 10 years, the reception so significantly caught the developer by surprise.
Not long following the activity initially arrived out, Workforce Meat's Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes mentioned how substantially they experienced worked by themselves into the ground in get to launch in time for Microsoft's "Game Feast" marketing on XBLA through the slide of 2010. They even advised that Microsoft betrayed them by not supplying Super Meat Boy the marketing force they considered experienced been agreed to and that it deserved because it was to be an Xbox special for the initially thirty day period it was out. At the last minute, Double Fine's Costume Quest finished up released the same week and Super Meat Boy by no means acquired major billing on the retail store web site, edged out by a Mazda 3 ad.
Even with all of that though, the activity went on to be a surprise strike and finished up offering over 100,00 copies by the conclude of the calendar year. It did even far better on Pc, finally likely on to promote over a just one million copies by 2012. That's partly why the game's ongoing achievement on the Switch no doubt arrived as these types of a shock. Even Nintendo diehards who by no means owned a PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, or Xbox One would have experienced enough time to look at it out just one the activity arrived to Wii U (admittedly way way too late) in 2016. At $15 on Nintendo's eShop, the game's rate hasn't even moved because it is initial release. The Xbox 360 launch even benefited from $5 discounted through its initially handful of weeks, producing the parity between sales then and now that substantially unanticipated.
The Switch though has seen a quantity of ports promote far better than anticipated. Even with now getting out for over a few several years, the Switch variation of Shovel Knight sold far better than any of the other versions at launch in accordance to its developer, Yacht Club Online games. Ponder Boy: The Dragon's Trap, Forma.8, and other online games have seen related achievement. SMG Studios noted in September that Dying Squared sold more on the Switch in the initially a few days than all other platforms it released on mixed, when the same thing transpired to the Zelda-like exploration activity Oceanhorn. And then there was SteamWorld Dig 2, Immage & Form's motion platformer that sold 10 situations more on Switch than on Steam.
For Workforce Meat's aspect, the developer tweeted that if its following activity, Super Meat Boy Forever, a sequel with 6 new story chapters and twice as several bosses as the initial, continues this pattern it may possibly even believe of production its individual Amiibo just like Yacht Club did. In the meantime, a actual physical variation of Super Meat Boy on the Switch is meant to get there as perfectly at some place.

Any resident of Southaven is likely to have countless questions about individual bankruptcy, but one of the biggest is usually: is filing for bankruptcy right for me? There are pros and cons to any financial decision, personal bankruptcy included; like any major move, filing for bankruptcy is an action that can prove extremely beneficial, if done for the right reasons.
Anyone even pondering bankruptcy is likely to have a need for debt relief. Bankruptcy generally isn't for those who have a few credit card bills that they could tackle if they saved more and spent less. Rather, bankruptcy is an option for those who need genuine protection from creditors whom they cannot repay. Issues like unemployment can lead to bankruptcy, as bills pile up and eventually grow to an unmanageable size. While people struggle to pay their regular bills, these debts will continue to grow and bankruptcy can become a viable and appropriate solution.
Bankruptcy helps residents by legally eliminating their obligation to pay certain debts - this is done through what is known as a discharge. It's important for residents to know that the type of bankruptcy they file - either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 - will determine which debts are discharged. It's also key for debtors to understand that not every type of debt can be discharged. For example, alimony, child support and student loans are usually not dischargeable under personal bankruptcy law. Finally, debts that have been taken on after a person has filed for bankruptcy may also be non-dischargeable under an individual's bankruptcy plan.
Still, many types of debt that Mississippians cope with every day are indeed dischargeable under the debtor's plan. Bankruptcy can discharge some or all of a person's credit card debt and also can help a person hold on to his or her car or home. In addition, bankruptcy offers important legal protections. For example, bankruptcy puts an end to creditors' harassing attempts to contact a person and also halts attempts to garnish one's wages and seize assets.

Washington, DC, Feb. 3 2010 – Yesterday the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, National Black Chamber of Commerce and U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce held a teleconference to discuss a joint letter they submitted to the FCC's Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on net neutrality.
The U.S. Pan Asian Chamber of Commerce also endorsed the letter, wherein the groups challenge the FCC's claim that codifying Internet openness principles will help to expand broadband networks. The chambers thanked the FCC for its transparent process but recommended the focus turn toward broadband expansion and adoption rather than regulation.
"Broadband access is critically important to the economic growth and success of small businesses," says Justin Nelson, president, National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. "But invasive network regulations stagnates the expansion of broadband infrastructure which is needed to meet the growing needs of small businesses in an increasingly interconnected world."
The chambers agreed that broadband networks and services encourage innovation and job creation. They want the FCC to aim for policies that lead to more investment in broadband networks so more consumers and businesses can benefit from high-speed Internet access.

The recent revelation that Hillary Clinton did not use an official government email address during her four years as Secretary of State teaches us important lessons about having a sound business email policy.
The intersection of business email policy and information security was brought to the forefront recently, when during a House Committee investigation into the attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi, it was discovered that former US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton used her personal email account for government business correspondence.
Rather than using an official state department email account, Clinton sent email messages from a personal account during her four years as US Secretary of State. Making her case even more interesting is the fact that she did not use a commercial email platform like Gmail or Yahoo, but, according to TechTarget, used her "own domain on a personal server, believed to be housed at or near the Clinton family residence in Chappaqua, New York."
The issue for most businesses is not their employees using a personal email server like Clinton did, but rather using a commercial platform like Gmail, Yahoo, Verizon or Comcast for work-related correspondence on personal accounts.
When employees use personal email accounts for work-related correspondence, it takes control of the information away from the business and leaves it vulnerable to security breaches. It also means that the company does not have the ability to retain copies of the correspondence, something that is often required by industry regulations. When it comes to a business email policy, the two driving forces behind it are compliance and security.
Secure Email
One of the biggest concerns with Clinton's use of personal email was information security. As the Secretary of State, her correspondence likely involved sensitive information. While she claimed there were no security breaches on her email server, if employees are using personal email to relay sensitive information, then their business is at the mercy of that employee's personal email provider to utilize the proper security measures.
Michael Young, IT Security Engineer at Miles Technologies, says that one of the main driving forces behind a company email policy is to help mitigate some of the risks associated with using a personal account. "By bypassing corporate email and corresponding through personal accounts, employees are placing both themselves and the organization at significant risk," he says. "Intentional or not, it creates a serious lapse in accountability that can lead to big problems."
The other main concern with Clinton's personal email account usage was compliance with the Federal Records Act. In 2014—after Clinton's tenure as secretary of state had already ended—an amendment to the act was signed banning the use of personal email accounts for government correspondence. According to experts, the previous language of the amendment did not explicitly ban this, which is why Clinton may not face legal ramifications.
Recently, the State Department increased its effort to abide by federal record-keeping practices, and, according to the New York Times, "Mrs. Clinton's advisers reviewed tens of thousands of pages of her personal emails and decided which ones to turn over to the State Department. All told, 55,000 pages of emails were given to the department."
While different industries have their own regulations and requirements, in order to maintain compliance, many businesses must keep all email correspondence archived and stored in case it is needed. For example, an e-discovery ("any process in which electronic data is sought, located, secured, and searched with the intent of using it as evidence in a civil or criminal legal case") may require a business to provide records of correspondence as part of a legal investigation.
If individuals are corresponding via their personal email accounts, their company cannot control whether those messages are being properly backed up and archived. Not only are backups pertinent for compliance purposes, but they can also protect your company if you are hit by a virus or ransomware like Cryptowall 2.0. If you do not have backups for recovery purposes, then you cannot recover from such attacks.
Security and Convenience
So why did Clinton decide to use her personal email account for government correspondence? According to her, it was a matter of convenience. "I thought it would be easier to carry just one device for my work and my personal emails instead of two," Clinton said in a recent press conference to address the situation.
Whether you are the secretary of state or an employee of a local small business, you want to be able to do your job productively even if you are outside of the office. Security vs. convenience is always an area businesses have to balance, and when it comes to mobilizing a workforce, areas like mobile device management and data loss prevention become important concerns. Should your email policy strictly forbid usage of personal email in all scenarios, it is imperative that your employees can easily access your corporate email from anywhere so they are not tempted to use personal emails because of convenience. Almost all mobile phones can be configured to allow access to both personal and business email accounts.
Companies invest in their business e-mail infrastructure to keep their communications safe and secure, but those investments will be wasted if users are not abiding by the policies. If your company does not have a clear-cut policy for email usage, take actions to develop one and share it with your employees.
If your in-place policy is unclear, ambiguous or your employees simply do not know about it, take the time to educate them. Going forward, make sure a discussion of the email policy is highlighted as a part of your new employee onboarding process so all employees are aware of it. Your employees could be violating a policy or putting your company at risk without even knowing it. Don't let that come back to bite you.
What are your experiences with a business e-mail policy? Do you have one in place? If so, what are some of the challenges involved with enforcing it? Share your thoughts with us in the comments below.
If you have any questions about creating an effective email policy or maintaining information security for a mobilized workforce, contact us today to speak to an experienced IT Advisor.

A second day of tutorials with International Red Cross managers in Nairobi. We look at their assignments: cultural diversity within the Red Cross, humanitarian advocacy in the information age, and bilateralism within the Red Cross.
Later, we relax in the tropical night watching startlingly beautiful dancers dressed in white silk at an Ethiopian restaurant.
Up early to see Red Cross work in Kisumu on Lake Victoria. I need to see the work to be a helpful tutor. I am met by the Red Cross branch. They explain the local challenge: a 30 per cent HIV/Aids infection rate.
Jacqueline, a nurse caring for 600 sufferers in their village homes with basic medication and nutrition, answers questions with informed authority.
We make courtesy calls on a dynamic Asian mayor (Henley graduate) and a concerned provincial commissioner. From there we go to Kabuor, a tiny village. We meet an HIV/Aids self-help group who explain their problems: no health, no energy, no work, no food, no family. Frederick, the meeting's organiser, died yesterday. Will we pay our respects? Esther, a pretty eight-year-old, runs in: her parents are dead and she is HIV positive.
We meet the Village Council and Parent Teacher Association. Kabuor Primary School has 300 children; 105 are orphans. Grandmothers take the strain. These dignified people are straightforward: "We are sorry to have to say this, but please help us."
The children demonstrate their HIV/Aids learning with stunning chants and dances. A local puts some money in the shirt of the lead dancer. We take the hint and follow, joining in the dance - everyone laughs. It is the best shake-down I have ever enjoyed. We see Esther spying through a hedge. Her grandmother can not afford the school fee. We call her across. A colleague later sorts out the fees.
We go to Frederick's parents' home. We walk past the skeleton of branches that were as far as he got in building a new home. Frederick's elderly parents and two daughters stand in silence by his wasted body. Jacqueline leads us in prayer and commemoration. I kiss his mother and the children and leave something with his father. There are tears as Red Cross staff recognise the grim eye of the storm in this silent, devastated hut.
I pack up and fly home.
I work on my orations for Lancaster's honorary graduands.
I present them to our royal chancellor. We enter in colourful procession. Academics bask in the pleasure of families celebrating success. Our honorary graduand Satish Kumar responds, speaking of relating the local and the global. I think of Frederick's daughters and their future.

It depicts crime and corruption seeping into the very fabric of society and destroying everything it touches. It's really quite wonderful. It can also be a bit of a tough slog. It doesn't hold the viewer's hand, so you really have to pay careful attention to navigate the maze of characters. It's immensely rewarding if you do though.

But then the second half of the film shifts into this kind of related story of a soldier lost in the forest and haunted by the ghost of a shapeshifting shaman. It turns into a beautiful piece of cinema that complements and totally added a lot more layers and complexity to the events of the first half of the film. It's challenging but very rewarding.

KMA gets over GHC66K to make Kumasi clean and green
An initiative by the Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly to keep the city clean and green has received a boost with a donation of GHC66,950 to the Assembly.
The donation by the National Investment Bank followed a request made by the KMA to the bank to support the initiative dubbed "Keep the City Clean and Green".
Head of Corporate Affairs of the bank, Mr Charles Wordey, who presented the cheque, said the donation is in line with the core objective of the bank in protecting the environment and the community they operate.
"That is what motivated us to be here to support the initiative of the assembly to keep Kumasi clean and attractive," he added.
He said it was unfortunate that Kumasi, which used to be the Garden City of West Africa has lost its glory, one of the reasons, he said, pushed the bank to partner the assembly in restoring that status.
Chief Executive of KMA, Mr Osei Assibey Antwi expressed gratitude to the bank for its kind gesture and called on other corporate entities to emulate to also support the initiative.
He said the assembly has two flagship programmes that would need support to implement.
Mr. Assibey Antwi said aside the sanitation project, there is a youth and sports development programme that seeks to revive sporting activities in the metropolis.
He has thus called for more support to help the assembly implement these programmes.

Things That You Might Like To Study
There are plenty of options to select from when it comes to choosing something to study and make a career out of. One of the most popular areas of study is business studies. Lots of people within South Africa have realised that there's a need for individuals to start their very own businesses if they wish to truly uplift the country and make a difference and offer people job. Is this something you would want to do though?
A course in business administration is not a simple course to complete. There are plenty of aspects of managing a business that you'll want to learn. There is hardly any practical work involved with this kind of course but there is lots of theory that you will have to memorise and be able to reproduce and use in your exams. This is definitely not a program that each person will love or be in a position to pass. It really is essential for a person that is planning on running their very own business at some stage in the future though. For more information on business studies go to
You have to know how to run a business before you begin one. This is exactly what a course in business administration will teach you. Obviously, it will only be able to give you the tools to make use of. You will have to figure out how to apply them to your situation and how to cope with unique problems that you may encounter. Absolutely no course is able to cover each and every aspect of business administration which will crop up every once in awhile. They can really only cover the most typical events and how to cope with those. It's still an excellent course to take and try to take full advantage of.
If yoare going to be starting a company of your very own then it's smart to make sure that you take courses that may help you with the management aspect of things. You can always employ people to do the sales and stock procurement and that kind of thing, but the preliminary management is going to fall to you to do because you will need to make the choices that set your company on its way. If you don't know what needs to be in place and what kind of tax needs to be paid and all that kind of thing you can quickly find themselves in a lot of difficulty.
It's far better to have more knowledge than you'll need when it comes to beginning a business. You need to be ready for as much as possible and also the best way to do that would be to learn as much as you can regarding running a business before you jump in head first. You will have a much better chance of making a success of the company if you know what you're doing from and administrative point of view compared to if you are going blindly through the motions of keeping things running smoothly.

New Adams Radials on their way!
Hello and welcome to the latest instalment of Engine Shed. As mentioned in previous editions, new product samples have been thin on the ground for the past few weeks due to the effect of Chinese New Year, when the majority of our factories shut down for the holiday. However we've still been very busy in the Hornby development department working on 2017 and 2018 model releases, and we're glad to say that the flow of 2016 production samples is now beginning to resume.
Look out for the next Engine Shed in two weeks time where we will be unveiling a host of new production samples which are due to arrive any day now. However, what we do have to show you this week are the final approval samples that we've just received of the three new Adams Radial locomotives, due to arrive in mid-July.
Adams Radial Class 415
The Class 415 4-4-2T tank engine was introduced in 1882 by William Adams, the Locomotive Superintendent of the London South Western Railway. Developed from the earlier, rebuilt LSWR 46 class, the Class 415 locomotives differed by having larger diameter radial wheels, spoked bogie wheels and shorter side tanks, the main body of water being carried in a well tank beneath the bunker.
As the LSWR workshops at Nine Elms were running at full capacity, the manufacture of the Class 415 was outsourced to four engineering companies - R. Stephenson & Co, Neilson & Co, Beyer Peacock and Dübs & Co - who constructed a total of 71 locomotives between 1882 and 1885.
The Class 415s were originally employed to carry London suburban traffic on the LSWR, however the introduction of the Drummond M7 from 1895 led to them being shifted to rural branch traffic, and by Grouping in 1923 only 30 locomotives made it on to the Southern Railway's stock book. However, three 415s remained in service on LSWR's Lyme Regis branch line until 1962.
Only one Adams Radial remains in preservation, No. 488, on the Bluebell Railway, which was scanned and measured by the Hornby development team in 2014. The results were then compared to the historical plans we hold, allowing us to include as many variations as possible in the final tooling.
Measuring up Class 415 no. 488 at the Bluebell Railway
Adams Radial final samples - first look
So, without further ado, we're proud to unveil some pictures and video of the final approval samples of our latest Adams Radial locomotives.
R3333 BR 4-4-2T Adams Radial 415 Class - Early BR
R3334 BR 4-4-2T Adams Radial 415 Class - Late BR
R3335 LSWR 4-4-2T Adams Radial 415 Class - LSWR Preserved
The new Adams Radial locomotives, and the Limited Edition Lyme Regis Branch Line Train Pack are scheduled to arrive in mid-July - for further information visit the Adams Radial category page.
Well, that's it for this edition - as always if you have any comments please do let us know on Facebook, Twitter or on our Official Forum.
See you next time

With the country now under a foot of water we have probably chosen the worst weather to start working on the decks.
However, the rain does highlight how rain runs of the deck where it pools and where there are weak spots.
Rain diversion
After nights of research on google looking at roofing supplies and rain harvesting I have come up with an idea to seal the roof using roofers flashing around the edges of the deck and a rubber roofing paint/sealer Isoflex and simple diversion with strips of one by one sealed with a wood hardener sealed with the isoflex.

Cook wins Class 3A state high jump
Liberty High School senior Lauren Cook had never cleared 5' 8" in the high jump in a track meet.
Sure, she had cleared it in practice, far from the pressures that come with meet competition, but clearing that at a meet was an entirely different story.
That is, until May 13.
On the biggest stage of her career, Cook not only cleared that height to take home gold in the Class 3A state high jump but also sailed above 5' 9" - just for kicks - at the UIL state track and field meet on the campus of the University of Texas.
"It's just really surreal," Cook said after the meet. "It still hasn't even hit me yet."
Cook scratched her first to attempts at 5' 8" and knew she'd have to settle for second should she fail a third time.
"I just gave it my all," she added. "I just told myself that I'm a senior, and I wanted to represent Liberty well. Then, I cleared my mind and put it all out there."
Cook admits she was nervous, even a little intimidated, competition at the highest level a high school athlete can reach.
"I really had to get myself mentally focused," she said. "I just warmed up a couple of hours before, pictured myself in Liberty, and I realize not many people get to compete at this level, so I better make the best of it."
At first, the goal was to just do well at the Region III meet, but those aspirations changed as the season progressed.
"I never ever thought I would got past Regional, but it just built up," Cook said. "It's all still just very surreal. "
Cook hopes to compete in the high jump in college.
A shiny gold medal from the state meet ought to help with that.
"I've talked to a couple of coaches, but I haven't made any commitments yet," she said.

I love Cabo San Lucas because it's only about a two hour flight from Los Angeles and it really has some great resort escapes. But, next time you plan a trip to Cabo…rent a villa in Pedregal. I went with a group of girlfriends and it was a heavenly experience. You can rent a home with spectacular views, hire a chef to cook the local cuisine, have the spa come to you, save money, never see a tourist and still have a five star experience. Is there anything better?

Snoop Dogg goes on 'Nemo's Advice' , as he uses his delightful choice of words to describe the marital conundrum that is Kim Kardashian in his own inimitable style. Watch video below!
The first advice is you dumb ass nigga, you shouldn't have tried to wife the bitch man, She's not that type of a hoe. She gets around man, you see when Reggie took the bitch to Africa, she was because they have bigger dicks than his. He didn't know how to act after her, they sent his ass to Miami. Ray J the only nigga that bounced back from the bitch man. She's cold-blooded. I'm pretty sure she have a book of the month. Talking bout all the niggas that she got and how she played 'em. So my advice is: look, you can't make a hoe a housewife. Don't try to re-invent the wheel. Let her do what she was born to do: Hoe. Punk bitch.

In today's world, it would be unfair if I say a girl is not equal to a boy.Rather I'm proud to say that let alone being equal, girls are much more forward in their ambitions and in achieving them.India is one of those countries who are gender bias.We all know this.According to a survey that I read somewhere, morocco and India are the two countries that score around 40% in gender-biased intolerance.Nothing that we should be proud of. Also, India is a country where dowry is still practiced.
In India as soon as a girl is born even before congratulating the new parents, people in their minds have this alien thought that forces them to start calculating the new parent's income to get their outcome of how much dowry they would be able to pay to the girl when they marry her off.I mean seriously? Yes, it is true.We have had such people in all our families, right?
So as we all are aware that DOWRY is the practice where the bride's father is supposed to give gifts to the girl and her new family.Well, it's just not a gift nowadays, it's much much more than that.This practice has been carried on since forever I feel.Long time back when people did not have many sources of money and mostly everybody's profession was farming, this tradition started.And because the girl could never inherit her father's assets, everybody expected the father to gift her whatever he wanted to on her marriage.
Earlier it was restrained to certain gifts or necessary household items.But today it has become a sort of business.I have often heard people saying"you don't need to buy this, you are getting married" which means they will eventually get it from the girls family.Dowry is something that should have been abolished a long time back.Why is it always that the father who is already giving his daughter away expected to give so much more to the grooms family? If people say that it is something that your daughter will use, But it is also something that the daughter's husband will also use.So why in the first place is it the bride's family's responsibility.If it is for the betterment of the newly married couple, so that they get all comforts of life then why doesn't the grooms family to take the initiative to give half the things.
Dowry is a social evil that is slowly eating up the society.What a day would be when fathers no more have to worry about getting a daughter married as soon as she is born and just live that moment as they would had it been a son.

Kaiser Permanente's local mental health services were strongly criticized Wednesday evening during a public forum in Santa Rosa aimed at spotlighting laws that require insurance providers to offer equal coverage for both mental health and physical health conditions.
A majority of the at least 40 speakers who addressed a panel, which included state and federal health care officials, blasted Kaiser, saying the HMO had failed to provide adequate and timely mental health services.
Jessica Birrer, 34, of Santa Rosa said she has suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder for 12 years. Birrer said she has not received sufficient care from Kaiser mental health professionals, whom she has seen only three times in the past two years, twice related to medication services and once for therapy treatment.
"I have done everything I can to receive the treatment that I need," Birrer said. "Until I get the treatment I need, I won't give up on myself. As far as I'm concerned Kaiser has given up on me."
One Santa Rosa father, who later asked that his name not be used, said his 28-year-old son, who suffers from a mental condition that renders him highly delusional, "should have been treated more promptly" by Kaiser. He said his wife also has struggled to get individual psychotherapy from Kaiser.
"I will say Kaiser does some good things. I have a new hip that I'm very happy with," he said. But Kaiser's mental health services, he said, are not on par with their physical health care.
The forum Wednesday, which was hosted by Sonoma County Supervisor Shirlee Zane and U.S. Rep. Mike Thompson, D-St. Helena, gave people the opportunity to share their experiences with the local mental health care services.
The forum focused on what are known as mental health parity laws, both state and federal, which require health plans such as Kaiser's HMO to provide mental health and substance abuse services at the same level as the plan's medical and surgical services. These mental health parity requirements have become a priority under President Obama's Affordable Care Act.
The public forum panel included Brenda Grealish, chief of the mental health services division of the state Department of Health Care Services; Sherrie Lowenstein, deputy director for legislative affairs at the Department of Managed Health Care, which regulates HMOs; 4th District state Assemblywoman Mariko Yamada, whose district includes parts of Sonoma Valley and Rohnert Park; and Bonnie Preston, policy and outreach specialist for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Thompson, who moderated the forum, credited Zane's local efforts at raising awareness about the need to get health plans to provide better mental health services, in compliance with parity laws. Thompson said one in five Americans will experience some form of mental illness.
"The big rub is the access to treatment," said Thompson, adding that mental health has been the "stepchild of health care for way too long."
Zane, whose husband Peter Kingston was treated by Kaiser shortly before his 2011 suicide, was the driving force behind Wednesday's forum. She has publicly accused Kaiser of rationing mental health services by providing insufficient one-on-one psychotherapy.
She said her office has become a "sounding board" for many local residents concerned about inadequate mental health services.
Kaiser officials have met with Zane about her concerns and expressed sympathy for her loss. But they have also characterized the HMO's efforts to treat larger numbers of mental health patients as part of a "crisis" that is taking place nationwide. In addition, Kaiser officials have pushed back at the notion that one-on-one sessions with a therapist are a "gold standard" and more effective than group therapy, which the HMO recommends to many of its patients.

By: Murtaza Ali Shah
LONDON: A Pakistani woman has alleged that she was sexually assaulted during an anti-drone march here a week ago.
The protest on 23 November was organised by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) to coincide with the start of anti-drones sit-ins and the blockade of the Nato supplies in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
The huge anti-drones protest started from 10 Downing Street and marched till the US Embassy in London. Nearly a thousand Pakistanis including a large number of women had attended the demonstration which called for an immediate end to the drone campaign against Pakistan and asked the US to stop providing any secret assistance to America's secret war on Pakistan through the use of unmanned drones.
Both the accuser and the accused, who is in his late 20s, are volunteers in the party. The woman, who is in her 30s and cannot be named for legal reasons, has complained that she was sexually assaulted during the march.
Sources within the PTI have said that the allegation is baseless and the activist who has been named in the police complaint is a "decent worker" who was leading the sloganeering on the day of the protest. The police had been told that the accused allegedly touched the woman during the march on the footpath.
The police arrived at the house of the accused on Sunday to arrest him but he was not present at that time. He handed himself in for questioning at the Charing Cross Police station in Central London on Monday afternoon where he was being interviewed at the time of filing of this report.

In June 2013 Robert "Jackson" Mueller allegedly met Taylor Swift at a meet and greet before a concert at the Pepsi Center in Denver, when he worked as a radio host for KYGO. While posing for a 'last minute' photo, Swift says Mueller 'took his hand and put it up my dress and grabbed onto my ass cheek and no matter how much I scooted over it was still there."
In September 2015 Robert "Jackson" Mueller sued Taylor Swift for slander. He claims the accusations he faced from her security after the incident resulted in his being banned from future concerts and later, his dismissal from the radio station. Mueller admits that Swift was definitely sexually assaulted but says it was by his former KYGO radio station boss, Eddie Haskell.
Swift, in turn, has filed a countersuit against Mueller. The countersuit reads,"Resolution of this counterclaim will ..serve as an example to other women who may resist publicly reliving similar outrageous and humiliating acts."
Last week (21/10) the judge ruled to keep a photo of the incident private but allow the rest of the evidence to go public, making her deposition available. In the deposition she describes the incident several times describing an experience that many women can relate to in some way or another.
"I remember being frantic, distressed, feeling violated in a way I had never experienced before." Swift says in the deposition. "A meet-and-greet is supposed to be a situation where you're thanking people for coming, you're supposed to be welcoming people into your home, which is the arena for that day, and for someone to violate that hospitality in that way, I was completely stunned."
Swift has said that in the case that a jury grants her money, she wishes to donate it to organizations that protect women "from similar acts of sexual assault and personal disregard."
This form of sexual assault is so commonplace, many women have become complacent with it, accepting it as a normality. Swift's lawsuit and influence may help many women realize that inappropriate behaviour like this is not acceptable, as well as remove the stigma and oftentimes fear of mockery that hold many women from saying anything about these incidents.
But the significance of these events are only really felt when they accumulate to a normalized mentality where men feel like the next step above that can be just as easily defended with an 'I didn't mean any harm, calm down', or 'stop overreacting/exaggerating'. Allowing ourselves to be silenced for fear of embarrassment, is allowing this person to embarrass you, and encourages them to continue to demean other women.
These small actions are compounded and justified in a society where potential world leaders use terms like 'grab 'em by the pussy'. Where men who are sentenced a measly 6 months in prison for a 14 year crime, and who only serve 3 months. A society where law only recognizes the rape of an unconscious woman with a foreign object as sexual assault, and not rape. Where the existence of rape culture is still deemed debatable.
Swift's lawsuit encourages women to make these things public, getting misogyny right where it hurts- grabbing it by the balls.

In "The Professor Is A Drag Queen," by Domenick Scudera, he discusses a course and a conference presentation (source). It is worth noting that this teacher has tenure and writes about many worthwhile points for further investigation.
Here are three quotes:
Drag, a distinct art form, brings into focus issues of identity, authority, agency, gender variance, and masculine/feminine constructs. Judith Butler states that "Drag fully subverts the distinction between inner and outer psychic space and effectively mocks both the expressive model of gender and the notion of a true gender identity." By viewing drag through this lens and by exploring the diverse and fascinating history of drag performance, students are challenged to question a gender binary and to break through social norms.
RuPaul says that "We're born naked, and the rest is drag." Upon reflection, the question at the symposium made me realize that the clothes I wear to be a professor are a sort of drag. They are my "professor drag," so to speak. I am dressing for my interpretation — or my performance — of what a professor should be. Is wearing a suit and tie to teach any different than wearing a dress and heels?
I have been more open with my students about my drag life, and other aspects of myself. Revealing more about my experiences builds a different, stronger trust between us.

Gate Theatre, 6 November – 11 December 2008
Reviewed for the London Theatre Blog
A married couple live with their son in a wholesome gated community. The neighbours are polite, there are facilities for the whole family, and at night the streetlamps play violin concertos so the family don't have to listen as infiltrators are gunned down by the gate guards.
Falk Richter's play, translated by David Tushingham, is interesting in that it portrays the fall of a dystopia from the viewpoint of the conservative. The Woman (Geraldine Alexander) is desperate to protect the status quo and her privileges from her husband and son, whom she suspects of opening the gate at night to let in the baying masses. It's through her quiet but persistent inquisitions that we are drip-fed details about the play's brave new world.
Naomi Dawson's minimalist set cages the family like zoo reptiles behind their panoramic windows, in a long, narrow room that gives Alexander maximum space to prowl and pace. She's poised – a model suburban mother – yet restless, nervous, and her insecurities flow out steadily but unstoppably. The disturbing impression is that she's borderline hysterical, but still keeps her voice down to thwart informing neighbours.
The irony is that she's as dissatisfied as her menfolk, snookered between her aspirations, received opinion and reality. She worked hard to gain entry to the community; everyone outside is willing to risk life and limb to gain illicit entry to the community; therefore life in the community must be wonderful, and any thoughts she entertains to the contrary must be denied.
The Man (Jonathan Cullen) provides a reticent counterpoint to his wife's stream of consciousness. When he eventually explains his disillusionment there's a very subtly controlled quaver in his voice, revealing a deep-set melancholy behind the evasive façade. Physically, Cullen is miscast. He looks neither old nor weary enough to justify his character's habit of catnapping through important exchanges.
As the Boy, James Lamb plays a textbook whiny teenager when the script calls for something more sinister. His mother professes more than once to be afraid of him, and Dawson has him in a hoodie, invoking a middle-class fear of rogue youths with knives and attitude. Yet on discovering the Woman has been snooping in his bedroom he is merely affronted, and under gentle questioning he pleads desperately for a reprieve.
With a sulk and a glower, Lamb could be the personification of everything the adults are hiding from, behind their panoramic window, high walls and gate. Instead he's a product of his privileged upbringing, pampered and spoiled, and his ultimate act of dissidence becomes a petty rebellion.

Special to the Grove Sun
VINITA - Craig County District Attorney Gene Haynes said Tuesday he won�t charge a Vinita doctor who was accused of prescribing more than 1,000 painkillers to a nursing instructor who later died from an overdose.
Dr. Mickey Ray Tyrrell was accused of prescribing excessive amounts of narcotics to Tammy Dawn Daniels, 35, of Vinita, who died Sept. 5, 2009. Tyrrell will have a hearing Jan. 13 before the state Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision.
�In my opinion there is no evidence of criminal violations by Dr. Tyrrell,� Haynes said in an e-mail. �A criminal charge would require proof that the actions of Dr. Tyrrell were the direct cause of death.�
Daniels died from acute combined drug toxicity from forms of the painkiller Demerol, according to an autopsy report by the state Medical Examiner�s Office.
A complaint filed by the state Attorney General�s Office states that Daniels� body �had multiple visible injection sites,� but the complaint did not elaborate on how Daniels might have injected Demerol when it was prescribed to her in pill form.
Haynes said he could not comment about the evidence, citing confidential medical information.�In my opinion the actions of Dr. Tyrrell were not the direct cause of the death,� he said.
Tyrrell, who worked for Green Country Family Medicine in Vinita, would not comment on the allegations.ing to the complaint, pharmacy records from June 2 through Sept. 2, 2009, show that Tyrrell prescribed 990 50-milligram Demerol pills and 120 20-milligram OxyContin pills to Daniels. Records show that Tyrrell noted only two prescriptions for Demerol in Daniels� chart, when he had written nine prescriptions, the complaint states.
Tyrrell told investigators he authorized the prescriptions but had no explanation as to why he documented only two of the nine.
In the last 35 days of Daniels� life, she received 630 Demerol pills and 60 OxyContin pills, an average of 18.5 dosage units per day of Demerol, the complaint states.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 31 August 2017 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows: a) Scope and basis of the financial statements The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of investments at market value and investment properties as stated in note 10, and are in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (the 'SORP'), FRS 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Ireland ('FRS 102'), the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2016. The date of transition to FRS102 was 1 September 2014. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Treloar Trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102. The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with FRS102 requires the trustees to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts in the financial statements. The areas where assumptions or estimates were significant to the financial statements are disclosed in note 24. b) Exemption from consolidation Consolidated financial statements have not been prepared because the figures for the group, incorporating Treloar Enterprises Limited, the Trust's only subsidiary, would not be materially different to those of the Trust as a single entity. The Trustees have included in the notes to these accounts the results of Treloar Enterprises Limited for its accounting year to 31 August 2017. The accounts therefore show the assets and operations of the Trust itself rather than the group as a whole. c) Fee income All incoming resources are accounted for in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Where income is received in advance of providing services, it is deferred until the Trust becomes entitled to that income. Fee income from charitable activities is split between teaching, medical and care based on breakdowns of each area provided to purchasers. d) Fundraising income i) Donations are recognised when received or when the organisation is entitled to the income and receipt is probable and measurable. Where income tax is reclaimable such income is included at the gross amount. ii) Legacies are recognised when received or when the legacy has become accurately quantifiable and has been notified to the Trust as receivable. iii) Gifts in kind (representing donations of equipment or vehicles) in excess of £250 are treated as income. The value of such donations is the fair value of the gift, usually the cost to the donor. e) Investment income Investment income is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis and is inclusive of the income tax recoverable, where applicable. f) Rental income Rental income is accounted for in the period for which the rent has been charged. g) Expenditure Revenue and capital expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis inclusive of irrecoverable VAT, where applicable. The Trust directly attributes expenditure in so far as is possible between teaching, medical and care. Support costs are those which provide indirect support to the Trust and School and College e.g. finance, human resources, facilities, governance costs and IT. Support costs not attributable to a single activity like these have been allocated on a basis consistent with identified cost drivers for that cost category such as staff numbers. h) Operating leases Rentals payable are charged on a time basis over the term of the lease. i) Tangible fixed assets The cost of tangible fixed assets includes those costs which are directly attributable to purchasing the assets and bringing them into working condition. The Trust does not capitalise interest as part of the cost of tangible fixed assets. The Trust capitalises refurbishment costs and any associated capital expenditure where such work extends the economic useful life of the building or provides new facilities. Normal repairs and maintenance costs are taken to revenue in the year of expenditure. 33
