Midweek Walks –Wednesday 19 Sept 2018. Next walk: Thursday 18 October Askrigg.
Taking heed of the long term weather forecast I had sent out a warning of my own to say that the walk to Bowlees- High Force and Low Force was probably not a safe idea. I did suggest that a low level walk might be a better option and with that in mind I planned catching the bus from Broken Scar, alighting at Gainford and then walking back to Broken Scar. I was not too surprised that there was nobody else at ED Walker Homes at 10.00 as several of my regulars had phoned to say that they had other arrangements. I decided that rather like The Windmill I would not close and consequently caught the X76 at 10.19 to Gainford. Several other walkers got out at Gainford but nobody seemed to be going my way. The Post Office in Gainford has closed so my thoughts of buying some Murray Mints to accompany me came to naught.
I set off past the Doctors Surgery having noticed the mileage indicator on the wall near the bus stop – had not noticed that before – wonder which way they went to London ? perhaps over the Bridge at Piercebridge? Turning onto the Teesdale Way I passed the field were our friend ‘Tom’ kept his horses but no Tom nor his horses, just the little pony with diabetes – I hope that all is well ? The notices on our gates are well and nice and clean. The track beside the river has received some attention and it is now rather boxed in with fences on both sides all the way to Piercebridge. There seems to have been some clearing out of the undergrowth on the river side and the river views are really exquisite at times. Saplings have been planted and these are protected with sacking – they do not look to have taken very well – perhaps the dry weather ? I had hoped to have my elevenses at ‘the seat’ – you know the one opposite Snow Hall but there was a guy sitting there reading his paper – he said that he had been there for an hour – must have been a slow reader because his paper was the Daily Mirror!
Just before Piercebridge there was evidence that some trees had been blown down but not with this storm because there were men cutting up the bigger branches. I crossed the road just before the bridge and walked down to where there are the remains of the Roman Town – I was going to have my elevenses in the town ruins but there was another man sitting on a seat here (No sign of the Daily Mirror) so I had to make do with a stone which was part of the walls. English Heritage have placed some information boards around the site and around the fields surrounding the site. I have never had time to read these before but spent time amusing myself looking at the writing and the illustrations. The pictures of the town and also the latrines were quite amusing.
I have never had any problem getting from Piercebridge to High Conniscliffe before but today I could not find any route which did not have new notices claiming –‘No Through Road – No cars’. It was getting a bit windy so I decided to cut my losses and I accessed the road which was not too pleasant as there was a lot of traffic and a lot of dust being blown around. I am sure that there used to be the outlet to some sort of water pipe below the road at this point but I also failed to find that !! The clouds were building as I reached High Coniscliffe and I decided to lunch in the Church Lych-gate. Church of St Edwin – only one in England dedicated to this Christian King of Northumbria who was killed in 633 AD – well at least someone remembered him. It started to rain as I left High Coniscliffe so I put on my waterproof trousers and top – always difficult to get on trousers whilst wearing boots. No sooner had I got my trousers on than it stopped raining but the same cannot be said for the wind. The river beside the track was beautiful as it raced its way down towards the east coast. The track is also quite firm because of the long period of dry weather and I made quite good progress. The wind was really gusting as I went through the trees which are a feature of the walk at this point and falling leaves and small branches rained on me as I hurried along. I wonder why I met nobody – possibly because of the windy conditions. To my left I could see the A67 in the distance and there was Merrybent and at last the bridge below the A1(M) – I hoped that nobody would throw a bottle out of their car window as it passed – there did not seem to be much protection from the road.
Just before Low Coniscliffe there are some woods and several of the trees have notices – one from the Darlington Trout Club declares that ‘No Grayling to be killed’ seems a bit extreme for a Government Minister of Transport. The wind was getting more damaging and the final bit of track before Low Coniscliffe was almost impassable because of fallen trees. Fortunately I knew where I was and I emerged through the final recently fallen tree just where the steps go up to meet the road in Low Coniscliffe. Just a couple of fields and then to the ‘Baydale Beck’ and then the main road back to Broken Scar not forgetting the Pumping Station which will open one weekend soon.

Jaenen, Cornelius J.. "Capitulation of Montréal 1760". The Canadian Encyclopedia, 30 August 2017, Historica Canada. https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/capitulation-of-montreal-1760. Accessed 23 April 2019.
During the summer of 1760, British forces advanced up the St. Lawrence River from Québec, down the river from Lake Ontario and down the Richelieu River, driving the French and their First Nations allies back to the island of Montréal. In August the Seven Nations of Canada, France's Aboriginal allies, came to terms with the British at Oswegatchie. The Canadian militiamen began to return home as James Murray had the farms of those who continued to fight burnt down. Governor Vaudreuil called a war council on 6 September and the senior officers recommended that he negotiate terms of surrender with General Jeffrey Amherst, whose combined forces were now in sight of the unfortified town.
The terms Governor Vaudreuil accepted were much harsher than those imposed the previous year when Québec capitulated. They implied the surrender of the colony of New France. The first three articles denied the French army the usual honours of war. The colonists were given the choice of removing to France should the colony remain in British hands after the signing of a definitive treaty of peace. Private property rights and the civil law according to the Coutume de Paris were guaranteed, as was the freedom to practice Catholicism. Article 40 guaranteed the rights of France's native allies to their property and missionaries. Historians have been everlastingly grateful that Vaudreuil also asked that the archives of the French administration be protected.
In addition to transferring control of Canada to a British military regime, the terms of the Capitulation of Montréal had additional importance in international law. Lord Mansfield, Lord Chief Justice of England, ruled in 1774 that the articles of capitulation had the force of an international treaty unless specifically rescinded.

My approach to life and work could be kindly described as scattered so I’ve always been a touch envious of people who are truly passionate about one thing. When that focus is aimed at celebrating and promoting their community, it’s a beautiful thing. When they’re in the food industry, it’s also delicious.
This fall, that delicious thing is Farm to Table: Celebrating Stratford Chefs School Alumni, Recipes & Perth County Producers (Andrew Coppolino, Blue Moon Publishers).
Andrew Coppolino is the editor of Waterloo Region Eats, a food blog that I spent way too much time reading while I should have been writing this review. He’s also a food columnist for CBC Radio Waterloo, has written for a host of other respected food publications, and makes regular contributions to Eatdrink’s Waterloo Region & Wellington County editions. As far as I can tell, he only takes time out from writing about food long enough to eat food.
Coppolino is a champion for innovative cooking done by knowledgeable chefs using the best local products available. In Farm to Table he brings together a number of people who love this idea as much as he does. He introduces the reader to the Stratford Chefs School and the Perth County producers who are affiliated with it.
Joe Mandel of The Church, Jim Morris of Rundles, and Eleanor Kane of The Old Prune began the school in 1983. They knew they needed good local talent and saw an opportunity to retain the chefs that worked during the November to March off-season in Stratford. Instead of being laid off or moving on, these chefs were now able to teach, giving local budding chefs the opportunity to train with the best. Students were able to gain valuable experience in the kitchens of the three founding restaurants.
SCS has always focused on the relationship between the farm and the kitchen, recognizing the importance of local, seasonal ingredients that allow chefs to express the nature of the region in their dishes. It’s about more than food; it’s about respect for the work involved in producing high quality products.
SCS is a not-for-profit organization that offers well-rounded programs to prepare students for many aspects of the food industry. I love that it also offers recreational workshops for adventurous home cooks and a one-week exploratory course for those who want to find out what the industry demands and offers. The school produces chefs, food entrepreneurs, writers and photographers.
Terry Manzo is one of Stratford Chefs School’s first graduates and has been a professional freelance photographer for 30 years. The book is full of her vibrant, energetic photos. Many of the shots look deceptively casual until you notice the brilliant use of light and shadow that makes subjects seem to glow.
Each recipe in Farm to Table is the result of the pairing of a chef with one of his or her favourite producers and includes a profile of both.
Author Kathleen Sloan-McIntosh owns Black Dog Village Pub & Bistro in Bayfield. With SCS graduate Nathaniel Beattie as executive chef, Black Dog works to expand the farm-to-table concept in Huron County. Gerhard Metzger has run Metzger’s Meat Products Inc. in Hensall since 1990. He works with local farmers to provide specialty cuts for restaurant and retail sales. Sloan-McIntosh uses Metzger’s pork to create Char Siu Pork Shoulder. It’s simply tender bits of pork shoulder slow cooked in a sweet, spicy, Chinese BBQ sauce and garnished with green onion and sesame seeds. The dish can be served as a main course or in lettuce cups as a fun appetizer.
Sean Collins is the executive Chef at The Red Rabbit, a worker-owned restaurant in downtown Stratford where they strive to do everything as well as possible and seem to have a blast doing it. Max Lass of Church Hill Farm aims to provide “high quality, humanely raised pork, lamb, beef and fowl”. This family-owned farm completes the farm-to-table loop by collecting vegetable trimmings from restaurants and mash from craft breweries to feed to the animals. Collins gives us Charcoal-Grilled Church Hill Farm Lamb with Herbs and Freekeh. Freekeh, the grain of young durum wheat, roasted and cracked, makes the stuffing for a butterflied leg of lamb that is then grilled to perfection.
SCS is a national success because it is a local champion. It teaches professionals and amateurs alike that the heart of any good dish, fruitful business or successful restaurant is the relationship between people and place. It’s the magic that happens when all these good things come together to be greater than the sum of their parts.
Recipes excerpted from Farm to Table: Celebrating Stratford Chefs School Alumni, Recipes & Perth County Producers reproduced by arrangement with the Publisher. All rights reserved.
Gerhard Metzger, Metzger’s Meat Products Inc.
Choose a large, oven-proof baking dish for the pork. Add the pork chunks to the dish along with the olive oil and sliced onion. Add salt and pepper and toss together thoroughly. Use heavyweight aluminium foil to cover the dish snugly. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour. After an hour, pull the dish from the oven, remove the foil and add the prepared sauce to the pork. Stir this mixture well into the pork and the liquid that has accumulated: it is important not to drain this liquid.
Return the dish to the oven and continue to bake for another 30 minutes. Then, give the mixture another stir and return to the oven for another 30 minutes. At this point, test a piece of the pork to see if it is done to your liking – it should be tender but not falling apart. If it is as you like it, remove from the oven, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onion and serve with butter lettuce. If you continue baking, be careful not to overbake, otherwise the pork will become too dry.
*freekeh is harvested grains from green durum wheat that is roasted and dried to create its unique smoky flavour.
The night before prepare the lamb: spread lamb out on a cutting board or sheet pan and season generously with pepper and cumin on all sides. Return the seasoned lamb to the fridge and let it sit for 2-12 hours (roll it up to save space).
To make the stuffing, add the butter to a large skillet and cook over medium heat until just bubbling. Add the pancetta and cook until lightly crisp. Add the onion and garlic and cook until translucent. Add the cooked freekeh, salt and pepper and lemon. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Stir in the eggs, panko and fresh herbs and taste to adjust seasoning as needed. Refrigerate overnight.
The next day, light the charcoal and let it burn until it has created a nice bed of coals in a charcoal barbecue or fire-pit with a rack. Have a second pile of burning charcoal ready to replenish the fire, if needed. If using propane, preheat the grill to medium heat. In the meantime, finish the lamb. Remove meat and stuffing from the fridge and spread the lamb onto a metal tray or in a roasting pan. Season generously with salt. Spoon the stuffing in a row slightly off the centre of the meat to form a cylinder, almost from end to end. Roll the meat over and shape it into a cylinder with the seam on the bottom. Tie the cylinder tightly with 4 or 5 pieces of butcher twine, tucking any stuffing back into the cylinder. Season the outside of the meat with salt, rub lightly with olive oil and set aside.
When your grill is hot enough that you can’t hold your hand over for 5 seconds, carefully place lamb roast on the grill. Grill on all sides until golden brown and slightly charred (about 2-4 minutes per side). With a probe thermometer, check internal temperature every 10-15 minutes. Roast until the thermometer reaches 135-145F (57-63C). If internal temperature is not reached and the surface of the meat is getting too dark, simply push coals to one side and continue cooking over indirect heat until finished. If using a propane barbecue, turn burners off on one side and move lamb to that side and close the lid. Remove the roast to a platter, cover with foil and let it rest for 15 to 30 minutes (or longer).
Remove the string and carve the lamb with your sharpest knife. Serve with fresh sugar snap peas sautéed in butter, your favourite mustard and crumbled local feta.

to make the stuffing, add the butter to a large skillet and cook over medium heat until just bubbling. add the pancetta and cook until lightly crisp. add the onion and garlic and cook until translucent. add the cooked freekeh, salt and pepper and lemon. remove from the heat and let cool slightly. stir in the eggs, panko and fresh herbs and taste to adjust seasoning as needed. refrigerate overnight.
the next day, light the charcoal and let it burn until it has created a nice bed of coals in a charcoal barbecue or fire-pit with a rack. have a second pile of burning charcoal ready to replenish the fire, if needed. if using propane, preheat the grill to medium heat. in the meantime, finish the lamb. remove meat and stuffing from the fridge and spread the lamb onto a metal tray or in a roasting pan. season generously with salt. spoon the stuffing in a row slightly off the centre of the meat to form a cylinder, almost from end to end. roll the meat over and shape it into a cylinder with the seam on the bottom. tie the cylinder tightly with 4 or 5 pieces of butcher twine, tucking any stuffing back into the cylinder. season the outside of the meat with salt, rub lightly with olive oil and set aside.
when your grill is hot enough that you can’t hold your hand over for 5 seconds, carefully place lamb roast on the grill. grill on all sides until golden brown and slightly charred (about 2-4 minutes per side). with a probe thermometer, check internal temperature every 10-15 minutes. roast until the thermometer reaches 135-145f (57-63c). if internal temperature is not reached and the surface of the meat is getting too dark, simply push coals to one side and continue cooking over indirect heat until finished. if using a propane barbecue, turn burners off on one side and move lamb to that side and close the lid. remove the roast to a platter, cover with foil and let it rest for 15 to 30 minutes (or longer).
remove the string and carve the lamb with your sharpest knife. serve with fresh sugar snap peas sautéed in butter, your favourite mustard and crumbled local feta.

‘Living Reconciliation’ shows how God calls us to live in a renewed relationship with him, looking outwards with him in love to others in the diverse world he has created. (That is my understanding of one purpose we can take on for Lent).
Sometimes people ask:”What is this life all about?” ‘Living Reconciliation’ answers that question for those who are searching, because it acknowledges our vulnerability, offers hope, and a way to live.
We cannot ignore local, national and international conflict realities of our time. ‘Living Reconciliation’ is active mission that involves us in conversation and listening with an open mind to gain better understanding of ‘the other’.
York has a tourist industry attracting many international and national visitors, some of whom come into St Martin’s in the city centre. As a form of outreach and mission to visitors, each month, (or during a season such as Lent), we provide a pew prayer leaflet that visitors can use if they wish, and take away. On the reverse is printed the Coventry Litany of Reconciliation.
St Martin’s York is a church with a ministry of Reconciliation and a place of pilgrimage.
Often known as St Martin le Grand and most famous for the clock overhanging York’s main shopping street, St Martin dates from at least the 11th century and was one of York’s main parish churches and the civic church. It was largely destroyed by bombing on 29 April 1942. In the 1960s the surviving south aisle and tower were incorporated in a rebuilding on a smaller scale under the direction of the leading church architect George Pace. It was re-hallowed in April 1968 with a dedication to peace and reconciliation. It is open daily.
St Martin’s dedication to peace and reconciliation, and as a shrine of remembrance, originates from its re-hallowing in 1968 after being bombed in an air raid in 1942. By an extraordinary coincidence, 11 November, which is marked nationally as Remembrance Day, is also the feast day of St Martin of Tour, patron saint of soldiers and of this church in Coney Street. More recently, peace and reconciliation at St Martin’s has generated not only from world events, but also from the many prayer requests left in the church by visitors from all over the world, as well as from those who may find it a quiet space for regular, private prayer.

Dynamic strain measurements were made near the exit end of a complex freeway bridge. The bridge is called “complex” because it is supported by six piers. The piers support I-beams, which, in turn, support the bridge pavement. Dynamic strain produced by vehicles was measured through changes in resistance and reluctance in the steel I-beams through the use of a complex-reluctance bridge (CRB) as a sensor. The strain patterns were measured solely on the exit span of the bridge. However, strain patterns produced by vehicles as much as three spans away were detected in these preliminary experiments. Strain patterns from bridge oscillations were always present, and a crude averaging technique was used here to emphasize vehicle strain behavior. The height of compressive peaks occurring in the exit span when the vehicles were in the next-to-last span fell into two distinct groups. One of these groups seemed to indicate loaded vehicles, and the other seemed to indicate unloaded vehicles. The heights of the tensile peaks generated when articulated vehicles (those having a hinge or pivot connection) were in the exit span did not exhibit such a clear division. Another characteristic that separated the two groups was the occurrence in one group of what appeared to be a large compressive spike superposed in the middle of the tensile peak when a loaded vehicle was in the exit span. Speculation here is that this spike resulted from a coupling of bridge oscillations with vehicle oscillations, which would also be influ-enced by vehicle velocity, although no velocity meas-urements were made. As the experiment was being set up, a loud sonic pulse was generated by a vehicle passing over the exit span, which was consistent with part of the exit span on the concrete block rising off the block and coming back down. Unfortunately, that did not happen again during the period when data were obtained, so the strain signature associated with the sonic pulse could not be registered. However, the compressive spike in the middle of the tensile peak appears to predict behavior consistent with this unusual event. In the following sections, a brief description of the CRB sensor and its behavior appropriate to measuring the transition between static and dynamic strains is presented. This, in turn, is followed by the display of dynamic strain patterns of automobiles, nonarticulated vehicles (single-unit vehicles), and articulated vehicles (tractor trailers). Finally, speculation on the possible origin of the loud sonic pulse is presented.

Vulnerability assessment is the process of identification and classification of security holes (vulnerabilities) in a computer, network, or communications infrastructure. In addition, vulnerability analysis can forecast the effectiveness of the proposed countermeasures and evaluate their actual effectiveness after they are put into use. They are usually conducted using mainly automated tools. In comparison with the penetration testing, vulnerability assessment does not try to exploit the identified vulnerabilities in order to prove their truthfulness and impact on the business.
During the part of the automated testing our team uses software tools like Nmap, Nessus, Nexpose, OWASP Zap, Nikto and more.
In conclusion Vulnerability assessment aims to: Define and classify network or system resources and assign relative levels of importance to the resources. Identify potential threats to each resource and develop a strategy to deal with the most serious potential problems first. Definе and implement ways to minimize the consequences if an attack occurs. After all, the discovered vulnerabilities are described in report.
Our Baretzky and Associates Experts holds various certifications in ears such as CEH, OSCP, CCSA and more. The Vulnerability Assessment can help you comply with GDPR and is an absolute necessity if you are under GDPR regulations compliance.

I.What Was Your Initial Experience In Asha Kiran?
1) Not knowing how to teach and having a very low patience level, adjusting with special children was very difficult. Every child has a unique problem and this made the job very difficult. Many times it crossed my mind to quit the job but always God held me back.
2)On the first day, I still remember, how I wept at home after seeing Davis getting settled in school. I felt I can’t come back to work here. I also felt that I can’t teach or make the students understand the vast subject which I was teaching. I also regretted for teaching Maths and also wished I was teaching a much easier subject.
II.How Is It Different Now?
1) My perspective to life has changed. I have learned to accept and realize that life has to go on. I believe what you get you must return and therefore I want to work and teach these kids. They are most definitely special to me. I have learnt to respect, love and accept.
2) I have become more confident as a person.
3) It is not only teaching to them but it’s become a time of learning more life values, not only personal, but also for the betterment of my family and society.
III.How Have You Grown As A Person During Your Tenure In Asha Kiran?
1)Changes in the perspective, becoming more patient, a happy new world every day.
2)My interpersonal relationship improved. Insight to develop my personality.
3)Asha Kiran has helped me in identifying my hidden talents and helped me to bloom as a more confident and independent person.
4)I would say I wasn’t quite like what I have become in the past few months. I have matured as a person and learnt the importance of life, love and respect. The kids have taught me to be a happy person, a better person and a complete person.
5)I have learnt a lot from my students. I have become more patient, empathetic and self motivated.
IV.What Have Your Children At Asha Kiran Taught You?
1)That their being naughty or having tantrums don’t extend beyond a few minutes and similarly my being upset with them should never extend beyond a few seconds. Since their love for me is unconditional all the time, my love should reciprocate this too.
2) Unconditional love and Pratham has taught me to be patient and deal with my own emotions.
3)Learnt to listen to others patiently and accept every individual as they are.
8)I love to work with my kids. Each kid is different and every day I am experiencing new things from these kids. They are for me like a pearl, very precious to me. Patience, happiness and so many things they are teaching me every day.
V.What Have Been Some of Your Learning’s Through Team Work at Asha Kiran?
1)Sharing, Compromise, new ideas, easy way of learning/ gaining knowledge.
2)Each one has a talent and it has to be valued. I can’t be alone; I need a society and friends to stand by me. I need help and my dependence on God and others. To do the best and leave the rest to God. To be focused in what I have to do. Help wherever needed.
3)Cooperation, Coordination, being submissive to each other and sincere effort.

Sometimes when the mood strikes I like to wander through Coles and really thoroughly peruse the isles to see if there’s something fabulous that I just totally need. On one such days my must have item was wooden skewers, with the grand plan of making kebabs at some stage….. these sat in the drawer at home for probably close to a year before I noticed them again and thought to myself that the time is now for operation kebab!
Luckily I had some marinade in the cupboard, so I diced up some beef and left it in the Red Wine And Garlic marinade, while I cut up some mushrooms, zucchini, onions, red capsicum and pineapple. Threading them onto the sticks was a fun job and then I cooked them up in my banquest frying pan and served them with rice. I quite like some sorta sauce on meat so with the excess marinade in the pan, once I’d removed the kebabs, I poured in some pineapple juice and reduced it down a bit and it had sort of a sweet burnt taste to it, but I liked it.
An easy meal, nice and healthy and now the big question is what to have with the next lot!

The Generic Modeling Environment (GME) is a metaprogrammable, domain specific, graphical editor supporting the design, analysis and synthesis of complex, software-intensive systems. It is closely related to metaCASE tools such as MetaEdit+ or Dome. Over a decade of research in model integrated computing has led to the development of GME. The toolset has been applied to modeling and synthesizing several real world applications for both government and industry organizations.
GME has an architecture based on MS COM technology and is implemented in C++. The Core component exposes the domain-specific language specification through a set of COM interfaces. It has another set of interfaces for model access. All the other components, (GUI, browser, OCL constraint manager, software generators, etc.) are built independently around the Core. Model persistence is supported via standard database technology and XML persistence. The technologies applied throughout GME (UML, OCL, COM, XML) make it easily applicable and extensible.
The demonstration will focus on using GME to develop an integrated simulation framework for embedded systems. The UML and OCL based metamodels specifying the domain-specific visual modeling language will be examined. We'll demonstrate how the domain-specific environment is automatically generated from these metamodels. We'll emphasize how the target visual language supports such OO concepts as type inheritance and multiple aspects. The automatic extension of the model access interface will be shown. This interface makes extensive use of OO techniques such as inheritance. We'll show an example application, including its complex models and the automatically synthesized simulation and C code.

Meditation and mindfulness seems like the new buzzword: mindfulness for toddlers, mindfulness in 8 weeks, 3 days to mindful, etc! But mindfulness is actually a really old practice, and I first encountered it more than twenty years ago in the books of Thich Nhat Hanh. Also called Thay by his students, he was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Martin Luther King, Jr in the 1960’s. He teaches that mindfulness is a practice that you bring everywhere- while you’re walking, doing the dishes, etc, and not only sitting cross-legged on a mat. Relatively new, however, is learning and practicing meditation from an app.
Why learn meditation? I recommend a meditation practice to many of my patients, along with talk therapy and sometimes medication if needed. A nice run-down of the research can be found on the American Psychological Association’s website (below), but studies have found that patients have less anxiety, improved stress, get upset less often, and feel more compassionate and empathetic towards others (which, not surprisingly, translates to better relationships). There are also benefits to memory and focus, whch may be why meditation has also been found in studies recently to be helpful for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Another interesting fact: I’m reading Tools of Titans by Tim Ferris right now, where he boils down the wisdom of billionaires, Olympians, etc, and 80% of the people he interviewed have some kind of mindfulness practice!
Let me make it clear that NEARLY every app I looked at says it is the “Number one meditation app!” and “found in the pages of…” Using the app store, I looked for the top grossing and downloaded apps. I reviewed five based on this, downloading them onto my iPhone, and practicing with them. Of the apps below, Headspace, Calm, and Omvana have apple Watch support.
Headspace (www.headspace.com): app is free, subscription costs about $12.99 per month, but less if you sign up for a year or more. You get 10 free initial sessions with the app. This app had my favorite narrator, Andy Puddicombe, who had a relaxing, approachable voice. Appears to be the app most often used in research studies on using an app for meditation. Has a foundation course with three levels, then series for health,, performance, relationships etc. Cute interface, with mini-monsters.
Calm: meditation to relax and focus (www.calm.com): free app, subscription based at $12.99 per month, $59.99 per year. Programs and individual sessions for all skill levels. Lovely, simple interface with nature photos; a daily meditation that changes each day (on Christmas Eve, this was “festivity”), has guided and unguided meditation with nature sounds. You choose your nature sound behind the meditation, and then the meditation occurs over the top of the sound. Could be annoying for some. Friendly sounding narrator- is she smiling while she talks? Unique to this app were sleep stories- basically low key bedtime stories read to you. There are also meditations for kids. Just eight meditations are available with free app without subscription.
Meditation studio (www.meditationstudioapp.com): $3.99, 5 star rating on iTunes, ability to schedule your sessions, clean attractive interface. 200 different meditations. No subscription required. Examples: meditation for beginners, happiness, helping your change habits. Multiple different teachers, from different walks of life- meditation teachers, monks, yoga teachers, (Rodney and Colleen Yee, Beryl Bender Birch). Nice: meditations for mom, kids, veterans, first responders. Can superimpose meditation over nature sounds.
Stop, Breathe and Think (www.stopbreaththink.org): Free app, but subscription based. $4.99 per month, 10% of revenue goes to a non profit, Tools for Peace to help at risk youth learn mindfulness and meditation. Basic meditations are free. I’ve used this one for a long time, and really like it- it has K.D. Lang music on some of the apps! However, it used to be a free app that you purchased a limited number of meditations available, but has recently switched to the subscription model. Even with the meditations I purchased in the past, there are less than in the Meditation Studio app.
Omvana: (www.omvana.com): app free, meditations are charged per series or class. Store is iTunes like, with a wide variety of options for different classes available for purchase, around $3.99 to $5.99 or so, or a $7.99 per month subscription. If you sign up, you get 25 free meditations. I wasn’t impressed with the store on my Macbook air, which had several broken links and loaded samples indefinitely- the iphone version worked better. This seems to be a common theme as the iTunes reviews are either ecstatic or angry because the app and store were buggy. It crashed on my iPhone after limited use (twice). Some of the courses are kind of cheesy: “The Art of Sexual Invitation”, etc. 4.5 star rating. Integrates with the health kit.
My choice: I kept the Meditation Studio app on my phone. If I subscribed to a service, I would probably choose Calm, unless the Omvana store and app become less buggy in the future. Tell me what you think in the comments below! Have you tried any of these apps? Or do you use a different app?

Agent-based modeling (ABM) is a relatively new tool for use in electric power market research. At heart are software agents representing real-world stakeholders in the industry: utilities, power producers, system operators, and regulators. Agents interact in an environment modeled after the real-world market and underlying physical infrastructure of modern power systems. Robust simulation laboratories will allow interested parties to stress test regulatory changes with agents motivated and able to exploit any weaknesses, before making these changes in the real world. Eventually ABM may help develop better understandings of electric market economic dynamics, clarifying both delineations and practical implications of market power.
The research presented here builds upon work done in collateral fields of machine learning and computational economics, as well as academic and industry literature on electric power systems. We build a simplified transmission model with agents having learning capabilities, in order to explore agent performance under several plausible scenarios. The model omits significant features of modern electric power markets, but is able to demonstrate successful convergence to stable profit-maximizing equilibria of adaptive agents competing in a quantity-based, available capacity model.

The organised labour in Kogi state has threatened a strike should the state government fail to pay the July 2017 salaries in full on or before September 12.
The unions comprising the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Trade Union Congress (TUC) and Public Sector Joint Negotiation Council (PSJNC), in a bulletin issued on Wednesday in Lokoja described the half salaries paid to state and local government workers as “sallah gift”.
The organised labour argued that the claim by the state government that it cannot pay full salaries to workers due to a shortfall in allocations from the federation account is not tenable.
The unions pointed out that the state government had earlier at a meeting with labour leaders put the monthly wage bill at N3.1 billion but later brought it down to N2.6 billion following observations raised by unions.
“Comrades, if the monthly allocation that accrued to the State from the Federation Account without the IGR shared in the month of August 2017 stands as N2.6 billion as presented to the organised labour during the said meeting on this matter, we then wish to ask; why the percentage payment of salary even when government could further access some funds from its IGR for other government expenditure(s)?
“We wish to assure all workers that the organised labour still maintain her stance on ‘no percentage/half salary’ as proposed by government.
“Hence, the current percentage payment of 50% salary to state workers and 40% to local government workers and teachers is considered as Sallah gift as earlier stated and we urge you to see it as such”, the unions said in the bulletin.
The labour unions urged workers to remain calm, law-abiding and prayerful as they await further directives.
