By 1907, the US had seen gondola in many places. Fairs and expos in places like Chicago and St. Louis had brought gondolas to the continent. Established operations in places like New York's Central Park contributed to the popularity of gondolas. Not surprisingly, there were folks who got caught up in the excitement but either didn't have access to Venetian boats or just figured they could make do with something similar.
In 1905, someone set up a sort of permanent "mini-fair" called Paragon Park in Nantasket Beach, Massachusetts for people who might want to visit an expo or world's fair without travelling far or fighting the crowds. These vessels were part of the attraction, and appear to have been modified canoes or other double-ended boats, with enhancements on both bow and stern (notice them in white). It also appears that the gondoliers wore uniforms reminiscent of Navy dress whites. I wonder if they sang to their passengers. | 2019-04-18T20:51:43 | http://www.gondolagreg.com/2008/02/postcard-history-lesson-nantasket-beach.html |

Workers who are burying Ebola victims in Sierra Leone have gone on strike over the non-payment of their weekly risk allowances.
The Ebola virus is extremely contagious and remains active in the corpses of victims, as it is transmitted via contact with infected blood, bodily fluids or organs. Because of this, only specialised teams are allowed to dispose of the bodies.
Grave diggers, who cover the capital Freetown, have been burying between 17 and 35 bodies each day. Teams have around 12 members who earn around $100 (£62) each per week.
Tamba Nyandemoh, one of the workers, told Reuters: "We have decided to stop working until they pay us our weekly risk allowance."
He added that they have not been paid for two weeks.
Sierra Leone Deputy Health Minister Madina Rahman said teams have been paid up until to the end of September and are only owed money from the beginning of this month. She said the wages will be paid this week, but did not comment on the demand for risk pay.
The strike has sparked fears that the outbreak could worsen in the country, which saw 121 deaths in a single day last week.
Without the grave workers, infected bodies will be left in the street, increasing the risk of the virus spreading.
The World Health Organization recently voiced concern over the "unprecedented" number of healthcare worker deaths in the outbreak. Across West Africa, over 120 aid workers have died and many more have been infected.
William Seo Lamin, a member of the NGO Health Alert Sierra Leone, told Euronews that since May there had been over 60 deaths among public health workers in Sierra Leone.
"I think that is very serious, it's really discouraging, and more has to be done if we are to reduce the number. But I will tell you for free, the number is going to rise."
The Ebola outbreak, the worst since the virus was discovered in 1976, has killed over 3,400 and infected over 7,400. The majority of cases and deaths are in West Africa, but cases have been recorded in the United States and Spain.
This week it was reported that a Spanish nurse, named as Teresa Romero Ramos, is the first patient to become infected outside of Africa.
She had been part of a 30-member team at the Carlos III Hospital, treating the Africa-based missionaries Manuel Garcia Viejo and Miguel Pajares. Ramos is said to have caught Ebola because she did not have an adequate protective suit. | 2019-04-20T20:21:19 | https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/ebola-outbreak-sierra-leone-grave-diggers-strike-over-demand-danger-money-1468990 |

Joshua Homme & Scott Reeder File Federal Lawsuit Against Kyuss Lives!
Kyuss members Joshua Homme and Scott Reeder have filed a federal lawsuit against their former bandmates John Garcia and Brent Bjork citing trademark infringement and consumer fraud over Kyuss Lives!
Kyuss was a Rock band from Palm Desert, California featuring Joshua Homme, Scott Reeder, Brant Bjork and John Garcia. They captured attention in the early 90s by releasing five full length albums and a series of singles. Kyuss ended with a split LP with Queens of the Stone Age. It acted as a transitional album as the original lineup of Queens of the Stone Age featured exclusively members of Kyuss.
In 2010 John Garcia toured under the moniker “John Garcia Plays Kyuss”. Due to Joshua Homme having no desire to do any sort of reunion, the rest of the band reformed with the name Kyuss Lives! Kyuss Lives! spent 2011 touring the world and there is talk of a new album. All of this may be in jeopardy after Homme and Reeder filed federal suit against Garcia and Bjork for the rights of the Kyuss name. | 2019-04-20T04:37:29 | https://music.mxdwn.com/2012/03/11/news/joshua-homme-scott-reeder-file-federal-lawsuit-against-kyuss-lives/ |

I love a pun. What is not to love?! Tweaking a phrase to create layered meaning is a damn fine use of anyone’s time. A good pun tickles the back of your head, it inspires mental gymnastics as you crane to create several links in you brain at once.
My mum, ever the ideas woman, wanted to open a shop selling nautical second hand items. The shop title: Nauti secs. Don’t deny that didn’t raise a snicker at least!
Newspapers love a pun. The erstwhile Channel 4 show ‘The Big Breakfast’ lauded the ‘Pun of the Week’ segment, a spot enormously enjoyed across the UK.
There is the famous kebab van in Bristol called ‘Jason Donnervan’. I challenge anyone not to applaud that work of genius.
And finally: the Halal butchers named ‘Halal, is it meat you’re looking for?’. The more tortured the better.
It is a truth puniversally acknowledged, that a human in possession of a sense of humour must be in want of a laugh.
Ricky Gervais has called them the “lowest form of wit”.
Presumably as sarcasm is the highest in his opinion, opening up the ground floor for a new loser. Even if you despise them, you cannot get away from them. They have more uses than just to make people gasp, snigger, groan. They have political validity. They can be crushingly painful.
Yes, dear reader, a pun can have weight. And this light-hearted look at the joy of punnery has indeed taken a turn. We all know those puns that deal with and flip the meaning of borderline offensive ideas, but the myriad ways in which meaning is imbued can be used to change the world, to revolt and reclaim power. Somewhat ironically, when looking at Orwell’s dystopian fiction ‘1984’, you can see puns at play.
Within the world of the novel, language is stripped of nuance, simultaneously creating an eroded selection of words that can mean many things, or only one thing when necessary. When expressing agreement, happiness or consent, “Good”, “plus good” and “double plus good” cuts out any room for exaggerated excitement.
It dulls the senses and keeps the protagonist and proles in line. Joyous expression is so individual – remove the nuance, you remove the individual. The destruction of creative language in the book curbs the minds of the people we meet, it is entirely chilling, and an incredibly viable tool.
In 2014, China actually banned the use of puns in the media, announcing that puns could incite “cultural and linguistic chaos”.
Further research into the use of puns in China found the use of ‘May 35th’, an alternative phrase which is used when discussing June 4th and the massacre at Tiananmen Square. May 35th is classic misdirection. It is seemingly a non-existent date, but add the first 4 days in June to the 31 days in May however, and bingo!
Censorship of such phrases has been rife, with the internet in China becoming devoid of such alternatives as 8×8 or 82, anything that related to the number 64, or the forbidden date 06/04. Even the collection of Chinese characters 占占点 (which has no real combined meaning) has been banned because they look like tanks.
These are examples of what is known as a micropun. Their use allows discussions around topics the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) aim to stamp out of collective memory.
Puns are a beacon, in this instance. They are a weapon of revolt, a creator of underground communities. On the surface, they are beautiful little mind games forming eddies of understanding rippling across your intellect. Pun and poetry are equally powerful means of rebellion, creation and persuasion.
The pundemental joy of wordplay is a successful tool of funny, intelligent people around the world. Upon learning the myriad ways in which the pun can inform, create rebellion, conjure laughter, and just generally connect the world, I have far more respect for it than I do for those who mock it.
A tip of the cap to you sir!
All cards are by the punderful Hello Lucky!

If somebody ban you for 24 hours, is there a way to get unbanned?
Programs...? Turning the internet ''off'' and turning back on...?
What are the methods that would work?
If you have a dynamic IP, you can disconnect the modem, and then reconnect it and your IP will be changed.
Which chat room?Who banned you?You can contact the admin,and let him unbanned your account.
Try changing the ID, if that ain't solve the problem, change your NIC.
They probably banned you for a reason.
Its probably a pretty good one too.
That still don't explain why you were banned.
LMAO. I got banned from MySpace so I ain't judging you. Swearing that is retarded. Only reason I don't do it much here is because that's one thing that gets you banned.

One eZ Publish best practice is storing static strings or ids as settings variables loaded in templates instead of storing static strings or ids within templates.
You should review your template files and move these static strings or ids into a settings file and make reference to the custom settings variables you define.
This example should show clearly a basic example of how to store your custom variable contents within a settings file and access them in a template. | 2019-04-22T08:17:11 | https://ezpedia.org/learning/dealing_with_static_strings_or_ids_within_template_files_using_custom_settings_files |
Cal/OSHA’s Indoor Heat Standard is continuing to move forward but the standard will miss its January deadline. That said, the standard is likely to be finalized and adopted in the first quarter 2019. On October 24, 2018, another proposed draft was published, which can be found on the Cal/OSHA website. This latest draft addressed many of the concerns raised by stakeholders and seems to simplify the standard which is now similar to Cal/OSHA’s outdoor standard which can be found in Section 3395. Below are some of the changes addressed in this latest version of Cal/OSHA’s Indoor Heat Standard.
The standard now applies to “all indoor work areas where the temperature equals or exceeds 82 degrees F.” This is an increase in temperature from the prior drafts, but the issue of duration of exposure to this temperature is not addressed. Also removed in this latest version is the list of industries subject to this requirement so one is left with the impression that all employers must comply with some elements of the standard. If, however, the indoor temperature is equal to or above 90 degrees F, or employees wear clothing that restricts heat removal, or employees work in a high radiant heat area, the employer is subject to all requirements of the standard.
Several changes to the definition of terms are made in the latest draft. One newly worded definition is to “cool-down area” which now means an area shielded from direct sunlight and other high radiant heat sources and is open to the air or provided with ventilation or cooling. The cool-down provision is further described below.
The definition to “indoor” has been changed as well. It now seems to refer more to a building. One of the earlier drafts included vehicles, which has been removed.
Similar to the outdoor heat standard, this standard required a cool-down area and a provision for water. Verbiage for the water requirement is similar to the outdoor heat standard. Concerning the cool-down area, this standard states that the area shall be accessible “at all times” and be large enough “to accommodate the number of employees on recovery or rest periods, so that they can sit in a normal posture fully in the cool-down area without having to be in physical contact with each other.” Depending on the size of the work force, this cool-down area may be quite large.
Much of the standard dealing with assessment and control measures has been re-written. Employers will be required to take an initial temperature or heat index measurement and follow-up measurements “when they are reasonably expected to be 10 degrees or more above the previous measurements. Interestingly, although the signed bill (SB1167) which required Cal/OSHA to adopt this standard specifically spelled out the use of the ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV), this draft version, like the previous drafts do not mention the TLV at all. It is unclear why Cal/OSHA is avoiding inclusion of the TLV in its standard. One can only presume that if the employer makes a heat stress determination based on a wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) as indicated by the ACGIH and finds the reading within acceptable levels, that does not necessarily means the employer is within the limitations of this current Cal/OSHA standard. We hope that Cal/OSHA adds the provisions of the TLV, which is a health-based standard. NIOSH has a similar recommended exposure limit for heat stress also based on the WBGT so we believe it only makes sense to add WBGT to the assessment section of the standard.
We’ll keep you posted as this standard moves forward. | 2019-04-21T23:21:04 | https://www.thecohengroup.com/article/update-caloshas-proposed-indoor-heat-standard/ |

Arnaldur Indirdason’s Icelandic thriller series, featuring Inspector Erlendur, continues with this look into his early days as a detective in Into Oblivion, an aspect first explored in last year’s acclaimed Reykjavik Nights. The CWA Gold Dagger Award winner is the only author to win the Glass Key Award for Best Nordic Crime Novel two years in a row, and with good reason.
The book opens a few years after Erlandur decides he wants to be a detective. It’s 1979 and the year springs to life, the mood set by the music, clothing and social mores of the era. The detective is working with Marion Briem, an older, more experienced detective, when the body of man is found in a blue lagoon known for its healing waters.
Examination reveals that the man has fallen from a great height and died before his body was moved to the lagoon. Could he have fallen from a plane? The only immense height in the area is an aircraft hanger on the grounds of the controversial US military base nearby.
When it becomes apparent the base is involved, Erlandur and Briem find themselves tiptoeing around the base to investigate after the US powers that be have stalled their investigation and denied them access to the hanger. It will take an unlikely accomplice to help them get to the bottom of the man’s death, thwarted by a rogue CIA agent.
As the action unfolds, Erlandur also takes it upon himself to run a parallel cold case investigation. A young teen went missing on her way to school, her body never found, and as both cases heat up, the young detective finds himself in his element, conducting interviews and following slender leads to find resolution.
Another hit that gives insight into what made Erlandur the detective he becomes.
England’s rural Derbyshire is the setting for Sarah Ward’s debut mystery, In Bitter Chill, introducing introspective DI Francis Sadler, DC Connie Childs and their team. It promises to be the best of police procedurals, where the mystery is strong and setting as stark as the killings being investigated.
Thirty years ago two young children were kidnapped on their way to school. Rachel Jones was found wandering hours later, but her companion, Sophie Jenkins, never surfaced and no trace of her body was ever found.
On the 30th anniversary of what is surely Sophie’s death, her mother commits suicide, which reopens the cold case in hopes the original team overlooked something that might lead to resolution of the case.
Rachel has become a genealogist and a local history expert who lives quietly and would continue to do so but this reopening of the case on the heels of Mrs. Jenkins suicide disrupts the peace Rachel has created, bringing reporters at her door. Worst of all are her efforts to remember details of that horrific day, when the girls were coaxed by a woman into a car with disastrous results.
Then a former teacher of Rachel’s is found strangled in the same woods where the girls went missing, and suddenly no one in the area feels safe, least of all, Rachel Jones. As Sadler and Connie investigate the new and old cases, they uncover secrets long kept buried as the threat rises.
Ward does a nice job of letting the setting become another character, and gives us enough of the inner lives of Sadler and Connie, as well as Connie’s closest competition in the team, the almost-married Palmer, to make readers look for the next installment of this team. Destined to be a series readers will seek out.
Sarah Ward: I was living and Greece at the time I wrote the book and having a bout of homesickness. It was incredibly hot, and I kept myself cool by thinking of the Derbyshire winter. It seemed natural to use that area, but Stephen Booth has stolen a lot of the popular places! So I made up a fictional town surrounded by the real ones and that’s worked well. I think being at some remove helped me write it, too, although having lived there I obviously know the area well. In the winter the tourists have gone and it’s deserted and feels isolated but very beautiful.
Auntie M: That certainly comes through, the majesty of the area as well as its bleak isolation. What about the sequel, which I hear is written and will be out next year? What it easier or tougher to write?
SW: I was back in Derbyshire by then and it seemed a bit harder to remove myself from the area as I wrote. It’s such a lovely area, with the Peak District National Park owned by private landowners. I’m quite proud of the fact that it was the first national park, this jewel of nature surrounded by South Manchester, Sheffield and Nottingham, great industrial areas.
AM: After you chose the setting, what prompted this particular storyline?
SW: I had a very similar incident happen to me when I was twelve and walking to school. A woman stopped and asked me to post a letter for her, which I did, and then wanted to drive me the rest of the way to school. I didn’t get in her car, but she was persistent until she finally drove off. I never told my parents about it, either. But years later I wondered what would have happened if I HAD gotten into that car . . . so I made the story revolve around two younger girls who had gotten into the car with the woman.
AM: Was there a kind of release in writing it down, exploring that episode?
SW: To a degree, but the most surprising thing about exposing secrets, which the book revolves around, is that people come up to me all the time at signings and tell me their secrets, completely without prompting. It’s usually family secrets of some kind, so I suppose the book has struck a chord with them.
AM: What about the relationships of Sadler, Connie and Palmer?
SW: I have a story arc planned, oh yes, but I’m not giving away secrets except to say there’s a surprise there–you’ll just have to read the next one to see what’s happening!
Lynda LaPlante’s newest DCI Anna Travis novel, at close to 500 pages, could encompass two stories and then some. The London detective finds herself heavily embroiled in a case of suicide which is reopened after a criminal awaiting trial claims he has information that proves the man was murdered. With too many suspects to count, and far too many toes to step on, Travis is treading lightly when she’s handed a partner from the US, FBI profiler Jessie Dewar, part of the same exchange program that finds Travis seconded to an FBI course in the US.
Dewar’s brash approach soon ruffles feathers in everyone from suspects being interviewed to members of Travis’ team. It’s an uneasy alliance, even as Travis realizes Dewar has solid information to contribute.
Auntie M has a love-hate relationship with these books. La Plante’s dialogue with its lack of contractions often sounds stilted and formal. Yet there’s no question the author of the Prime Witness series has a knack for complex plots and that is certainly on view here. You’ll notice Auntie M keeps reading the series, because despite the reading flaws, the stories are compelling and the cases far from simple.
Always on the side is Travis’ boss, Langton, with whom she has her own complicated history. And there will be the potential for Travis to finally have some kind of private life after the death of her fiancé two years ago. A storyline in the US is conveniently cleared after Travis gets on the case, and it remains to be seen if she will return to the US in future entries in the series.
Auntie M is a huge fan of M R Hall’s series featuring Coroner Jenny Cooper and her complicated life. He gets inside a woman’s head well and writes in a believable voice. The cases are complex and yet have the ring of truth, and along the way, readers learn what constitutes the real job of a coroner.
In this outing, it’s the cold period between Christmas and New Year’s when Jenny is called to an horrific scene: a house has burned to the ground and it’s later discovered that three members of the family were inside; two daughters and stepfather Ed Morgan. With evidence of shotgun injuries to the three bodies, it is felt that Ed killed the girls and turned the gun on himself after starting the fire. But what has happened to his young son with wife Kelly, who was off premises at work that evening?
It’s a complicated case, made all the more so by some witnesses withholding information and others not realizing how important their information may be. And how does it tie in to the disappearance ten years ago of another young girl from the same village? There will come a time when Jenny isn’t certain who she can trust and that includes members of the police force who are supposed to be helping her investigation.
Add in the twists of Jenny’s personal life, and the return of her assistant after an accident from she sustained in the last book, helping to save Jenny’s life and that of her son, and it all adds up to a complex and compelling read.
Auntie M is surprised more readers haven’t discovered this always-satisfying series. Give it a try if you haven’t yet found the delightful and compelling novels in this series. | 2019-04-18T15:04:30 | https://auntiemwrites.com/tag/cold-case/ |

I’m not one to adhere rigidly to the idea of drinking seasonally: reds when it’s cold, whites and rosés when the weather heats up. This is textbook nonsense that makes it seem as if temperature is the only consideration in choosing a wine.
But this is winter, a time to hunker down. For many, that means seeking pleasure in long, slow cooking.
In Manhattan, where I live, the idea of a hearth may be fanciful, but the warmth of the oven or stove, with a bubbling pot of beans or a simmering stew, serves the crucial figurative function.
The sorts of deep, soulful flavors that come from blends of herbs and spices, long braises, and meats and birds roasted on the bone require specific sorts of wines. Most often they are reds, but not just any sort of red. These foods demand staying power and the ability to stand up to robust flavors.
Yet they must also fulfill the fundamental roles of providing refreshment and enhancing meals without overpowering them. This means wines that are balanced and energetic, substantial rather than ethereal, yet not blusterous or domineering.
Here are 20 red wines that meet those requirements, not ranked in any particular order. All are in that $15-to-$20 sweet spot where price intersects with quality and distinctiveness to yield great value. You can certainly find plenty of sound wines for less than $15, but chances are they will not be as interesting.
For more than $20, you can start to add in wines that may fit the bill from more highly regarded regions, like the northern Rhône, Priorat, even Burgundy, though pretty soon you could be spending a lot of money.
Staying in the $15-to-$20 range requires searching outside the status areas, and trying wines that often come from little-known regions, are made from grapes that are not celebrated, and are frequently in limited production. If the wines are more familiar, like California cabernet sauvignon or Oregon pinot noir, they will often be made from young vines, or come from surplus grapes that were sold off.
What you won’t find here are fabricated, artificial products made with technological shortcuts or grapes that come from inappropriate areas, which permit production of cheap bottles in great quantities.
This means that most people will be able to find only some of these wines. As always, ask for other recommendations at the best wine shop nearby.
The Shebang series, moderately priced wines from Morgan Twain-Peterson’s excellent Bedrock Wine Company, offers modern versions of California field blends. This spicy, gutsy wine comes from multiple vineyards and appellations, includes many grapes (with probably a lot of zinfandel and carignan), and mixes several vintages. The result is a delicious, long-lasting red with flavors of licorice, herbs and red and black fruits.
Camp’s group of moderately priced Sonoma wines comes from Kenny Likitprakong’s Hobo Wine Company, which makes very good wines from all over California under several labels. This young cabernet is bright and well balanced, with a touch of earth and tannins that simply let you know they are there. It’s easy to enjoy right now, especially with juicy braised meats.
Good, moderately priced pinot noir from California is tough to find, because most of it comes from areas not well suited to the grape. Searching for well-priced pinot noirs is far more rewarding in Oregon, where land and labor costs have not accelerated out of control. This one from Les Brebis, a small producer in the Willamette Valley, is direct and without the sort of artifice often found in inexpensive pinot noirs. Its earthy flavors of red and black fruits and herbs pair well with pork, chicken and salmon.
Why, here’s another one, also from the Willamette, and quite different in style from the Brebis. It’s made from organic and biodynamically grown grapes, and is equally elegant in profile. It’s a little more floral and herbal, and it has a meatier character, with a deliciously savory edge. Try it with hearty soups.
Yet another side of cabernet franc, this one comes from Wölffer Estate on the South Fork of Long Island. It’s rich and expressive, more in the Bordeaux style than the Loire, less subtle, more open and welcoming. It’s balanced and earthy, and though the tannins are still a bit firm, it will go well with a meaty stew.
San Diego? Seriously? While the San Diego coast is more readily associated with beach volleyball and Navy bases, San Diego County is also home to a small wine region with some surprisingly good producers. Vesper Vineyards makes this fruity, smoky, well-balanced carignan tempered by citrus highlights.
Foxglove is the reliable value arm of Varner Wine, which makes fine chardonnays and pinot noirs. Foxglove expands that range with moderately priced wines like this Paso Robles cabernet, which is bold and intense yet not at all a fruit bomb. It’s juicy and balanced, and will go well with steaks and chops.
An earlier version of this article misstated the name of the importer of Fattoria La Rivolta Aglianico del Taburno. It is T. Edward Wines, not T. Edwards Wine. | 2019-04-25T04:54:39 | https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/12/dining/20-red-wines-for-winter.html?ref=dining |

On the weekend of 24th -25th June, the Brownies had a great time at Copeland Cottage Maer on Pack holiday 2016.
We did craft activities based around the Peter Pan theme, and we also tried the blindfold trial, grass sledging, toasting marshmallows, a tinker-bell treasure hunt, and playing in the park.
We split them into 3 different groups and did chores ranging from cooking to cleaning the toilets, which the girls loved!!
Sleep — well, all I can say is WHAT SLEEP!? (especially the first night!) On Saturday evening the girls entertained us with their skills, ranging from Japanese, to dancing, gymnastics and singing. | 2019-04-21T07:11:23 | https://www.halmerendmethodists.org.uk/news/brownies-pack-holiday-2016.html |
You do not need to be the "Indiana Jones" of the Internet to find clients on Google. Instead, you can start your quest with some solid steps that greatly increase your odds of finding success.
Who are they? Make a profile of your ideal client including location, income or revenue range, number of employees, and web sites that are most frequently visited. You can start by profiling current customers through surveys or conversations.
What are you selling? Take a hard look at the way you present your products and services online. Is the content designed to attract your customers? Research how your clients may search for your products and services. Consider acronyms, nick names, and potential misspellings.
Why would they buy from you? As part of your marketing strategy you should look at the problems that your clients encounter and how your products or services solve those problems. For example, a med-spa can help to relieve stress or beautify someone. Use these reasons in creating your search criteria.
How do your competitors sell? Scout your competition and find out how they are approaching your market. They could be the lowest price or they could have more personalized services. It is important to understand their approach so that you can come up with a better or more unique method.
When should you make contact? Reaching out to clients should be done sooner rather than later. Gather as much information as you can up front, then move forward to offer your services.
What is a qualified lead? Online leads can vary greatly from a casual visitor to a seriously interested prospect. Note the information that you need in order to determine a qualified lead before it's handed off to the sales team.
Are there tools to use? There are abundant tools to use for finding clients on Google. Hubspot is just one example of a powerful tool set that can help you in this search.
Do clients find you? With high quality content and a strong SEO strategy, you may find that clients are coming to you instead of you having to spend time searching.
Should you use a marketing partner? In many cases, a marketing partner can help to accelerate your work while generating real ROI. | 2019-04-23T14:36:29 | http://www.seldonmarketing.com/blog/topic/finding-clients-on-google |
After working as an interpreter for over 25 years both in Taiwan and in California, NCTA member C.J. Phillips retired at the beginning of this year. Her résumé is a long and distinguished one. She worked as the chief translator and editor at the National Central Library and National Museum of History in Taipei, Taiwan, from 1980-1985, and as a freelance translator and editor before starting work in 1997 as a registered Mandarin interpreter for U.S. District Court in San Jose and for the Santa Clara County Superior Courts. C.J. translated statements made by Democracy Movement leaders following the Tiananmen Massacre for the San Francisco Chronicle in June 1989, and also did work for the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, among others organizations. Visit C.J.’s website, www.cjphillips.com, for more on her amazing career.
While an interpreter, C.J. was an active member of NCTA, as well as the Bay Area Court Interpreters (BACI) and the National Association of Judicial Interpreters and Translators (NAJIT), and is known among her colleagues for her mentoring of younger Chinese interpreters, her presentations at workshops and lectures on interpreter issues, and her work for interpreters’ benefits and rights. C.J. is married to Chinese scholar and author J.H. Huang. They have one daughter, Deborah.
Is your imminent retirement to be a clean break, or do you anticipate still dabbling in translation and/or interpretation?
C.J. Phillips: This should be a clean break from court interpreting, although I still have a few old cases and good clients that will keep me from going completely to pasture. I have some private translation work that will keep me busy, too. This mainly will be translation of classical Chinese works.
What has been the proportion of interpreting to translating over your career, and which activity do you prefer or find more fulfilling?
About 50-50, and I enjoy both types of work very much. From the standpoint of immediate gratification, I got a lot of pleasure out of working as a court interpreter, since I was able to work directly with people. From an intellectual standpoint, translation is wonderful because it gives me time to think about my work and hone it until I’m satisfied with the results. I’ve been very lucky in that I’ve worked in both fields from the very beginning.
I have heard Taiwanese acquaintances say that the simplified written Chinese, dominant on the mainland, is ruining the Chinese language. Do you see it in such stark terms, and do you believe traditional written Chinese can survive whatever eventual reunification there is between China and Taiwan?
I don’t know whether simplification will stand the test of time, but both forms are widely used in the Chinese-speaking world. However, even though government-mandated simplified forms remain the standard in Mainland China, they generally are not understood in the areas that still employ traditional characters. Some of this has to do with politics, but much of this has to do with how a culture evolves. One thing many people forget, though, is that not all the characters were simplified; in fact, only less than ten percent, or around 2,800, so it is only a small fraction.
The Chinese government has a new policy now of “yong jian, ren fan,” meaning that while simplified characters should remain the norm, people should begin to recognize the traditional forms, too. The problem is that while the evolution and sources for traditional script remain very clear, the synthetic creation of the simplified forms cut the language off from its cultural roots. China’s 5,000-year-old history is too closely intertwined with its written language for the traditional forms to be blithely discarded. And the Chinese people I know generally agree with this.
What I’ve found encouraging is that more and more people—particularly the intelligentsia and the young—have returned to traditional script. I’ve even seen everyday people come to the U.S. from Mainland China and start picking up traditional characters so that they can read the paper, watch Chinese television with the subtitles on, and be more a part of the local Chinese community. Of course, the media and the Internet have helped a great deal, too. But I haven’t seen this interest flow in the other direction!
As to which form will last, perhaps the two forms will evolve together into a new form. Who knows? Only time will tell.
I see on your website that you have experience in movie subtitling. Does the recent boom in Chinese martial arts/fantasy cinema represent the kind of Chinese cinema that is also popular in Asia, or are these films directed more toward a Western audience?
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was a hit, as have been films in the same vein such as Hero and House of Flying Daggers. Cross-cultural action movies such as the Matrix series, Shanghai Knights, Tarantino’s films, and so forth have also proved to be big at the box office, but then again, so have all the other big movies we’ve enjoyed here in the U.S.
I imagine you have traveled widely. What are some of your favorite places on Earth?
In no particular order: San Francisco, Chinese Turkestan, Xi’an, Tainan, Beijing, Vancouver, and the Big Apple.

SPOILER ALERT: Dinna read unless you've read chapter 98 in A BREATH OF SNOW AND ASHES.
So wow. Where to start? Malva a ho. A big, fat, DEAD ho. And I canna feel bad about it. Not one bit. What I can feel bad about is Claire's ridiculous and annoying need to GET INVOLVED in every crisis that is better off left alone. Case in point - trying to save Malva's dead bairn. Although - she's a doctor - I get it. How could she see that belly move and NOT try to save the baby? I was with her on that. But I'm thinking she should have run to the house - gotten someone - ANYONE - as a witness - and said "OK I'm going to cut into this dead Malva I just found in order to try to save her baby. Capice?" And she would have had an alibi. But no - she just slices right in with her Swiss army knife and once again - Claire's in deep doo-doo.
How POWERFUL was that standoff scene with Jamie and Claire at the big house? Holy god. I love how Claire is just able to shoot someone and go about her business of hiding in the house and making a bite to eat for Jamie.. and no one cares at all. Why isn't anyone taking her to jail for THAT?
And speaking of jail. Or Gaol. Um, YUCK. Mrs. Ferguson would have been told PRONTO that she should keep her damned hands to herself. I mean, really. I couldna have even stayed in the bed with her after that - roaches or no.
And is it me or do people just go into labor all around Claire - at opportune times? It's fascinating! "Oh wow - I hate being in jail - it's stinky and I'm bored". "Shriekkkkkk!" "Oh look - I can get out and hang out by the hearth and deliver a child! That will take a good couple of hours. Excellent!"
Here's a scene I want to see in ABOSAA: The Movie: Jamie running after the carriage as Claire and the Governor are riding down the street. Oh. My. Holy. Ever. Loving. God. I DIED! SO heroic. And Ian's all "Um, hullo, Uncle Jamie? Your damned HAT fell off and now the whole world and maybe even Jupiter knows it's you, ya DUMBASS." That was tremendous. Poor Jamie. He's all panting and shiz. It reminds you he's now old, just like the rest of us.
May I just say, I love your longer entries! I mean, the books are a thousand pages, right? Plus your writing is never boring.
And it's true that for me, as much as the hair, as much as the assault, is seeing Claire being stoned by these toothless fools. It just killed me! I haaaaated it. Sometimes I also haaaate seeing Claire act so stupidly - she knows how things will play out! She knows that if anyone sees her trying to save Mulva's baby they'll think she killed her! She's from BOSTON in the 70s now, basically! But she goes on anyhow.
And I love the abosaa: the movie scene. But can I say, Jamie will never be old! (um, not to me :-))) Even old Jamie is most vibrant and youthful than most young people.
And Mrs. Ferguson's hands? God, Claire has had to suffer so many indignities. Wild!
good call on getting a witness for the c section. That would have solved alot of problems. The standoff at the house was HOT.
Ferguson, here we thought she was doing Claire a favor by saying she was the forger when actually being a forger was more terrible and worth a hangin than a murderess.
Did love the scene of Ian in the woods following Jamie and Claire when they were taken. Or how about when Ian found Jamie in the shed near the water. How many times can I say it, I LOVE IAN. He is what Jamie was to me in his younger days. HOT AND SEXILIOUS!!!!
The scene where Jamie runs after Claire's carriage is IMHO one of the funniest in the whole book. I just love Ian's reaction. Priceless!
Poor Jamie; his heroic instincts are as strong as ever, but his body isn't always quite up to it anymore.
Thanks Sirena! You are verra sweet, lass.
Shannon - good point about the forging charge. Here we thought she was lucky. HA! Can you believe it would have been worse than murder? They made it seem like she'd have gotten off really easy. Somehow I don't think Brown knew that.
I also love, love how DG is so talented at giving us a back story for so many characters, from Mrs. Ferguson to the gaol keeper's wife (I forget her name). She takes the most innocuous little details and makes each character unique and almost three-dimensional. Thinking of Ian running through the woods tracking Jamie and Claire - love it! It takes his years as a Mohawk and makes them almost worthwhile.
I also loved the scene where Jamie runs after the carriage. What I really love is after Ian yells at him and Jamie tells Ian that he sounds like Jenny and needs to be shut up. Too funny!
I am also with you on the whole c-section thing. I was like, "Claire, what the hell are you doing???? You know everyone already thinks you're a witch or something!" Just imagine what people would have said if she had actually been able to save the baby!
Looking forward to seeing you all during our chat tonight!
I kept thinking that. I thought "What in god's name are you going to do with this baby?! Raise it as your own?! How gross would THAT be?! The Ridgers would REALLY have a chat session about the Frasers THEN!"
I wish I had discovered you earlier when I first started the series, but I'm just going back in your archives and reading the posts as they correspond with where I am (I'm almost finished with ABOSAA)!
I just read the part where Bree catches Jem singing "Folsom Prison Blues" and then he lowers his voice and says "Hello. I'm Johnny Cash." Oh, so adorable and heartwarming! And it made me happy to hear that Roger is singing again!
WELCOME Blue Moon Magnolia!!!! We are thrilled to have you here! Keep on reading! You always have friends here! :) PS - you are almost finished ABOSAA! Then Echo and then you're finished until Book 8 comes out! Woot woot!
I'm reading the pay where Claire and Jamie are being taken, are staying at an inn and talking about standing trial. Claire says she has never been on trial. Does a witch trial not count? That bothered me.
I have really been enjoying these posts as I am reading. Better five years late than never!
Hi Carol and co. Oh I'm weeping for Tom Christie :,-(. For me he is the hero above all in this section. I just can't believe that Claire didn't realize that he was inlove with her all along. I did when he was in her surgery and they shared some intimate staring contest or whatever. I NEED who rid the world of Wee Ho, the sequel and who the baby daddy was.
A movie scene I would love to see? Jamie appearing from a cloud of smoke as he made his way to Claire on the boat. My heart absolutely melted. | 2019-04-25T22:15:57 | http://www.myoutlanderpurgatory.com/2010/03/gaol-sucks.html |

Abortion is a major cause of economic loss to the goat industry. Coxiella burnetii the causative agent of Q fever is an important zoonotic agent known to be prevalent worldwide. In the present investigation, we detected the presence of Coxiella burnetii by the modified Ziehl Neelsen method of staining and its DNA by trans-PCR assay in the placenta obtained from the aborted goat. We also ruled out other common causes of abortion in this case. Based on a literature survey, this is the first report on the direct detection of Coxiella burnetii from an aborted goat to be reported from India.

Settlement of the Arlington area dates back at least to the 1840s. After the May 24, 1841 battle between General Edward H. Tarrant (Tarrant County is named for him) and Native Americans at the Village Creek settlement, a trading post was established at Marrow Bone Spring in present-day Arlington. The rich soil of the area attracted farmers, and several agriculture-related businesses were well established by the late nineteenth century.
Arlington was founded in 1875 on the Texas and Pacific Railway as a market town for surrounding farms. A Presbyterian minister, Andrew Hayter, was asked by the railroad company to survey the area that became Arlington, he is credited with laying out the first town plat. Originally named Hayter, the city was re- named in 1877 after General Robert E. Lee’s Arlington House (in present-day Arlington County, Virginia).
After the arrival of the railroad in 1876, Arlington grew as a cotton-ginning and farming center, and incorporated in 1884. The city could boast of water, electricity, natural gas, and telephone services by1910, along with a public school system. By 1925 the population was estimated at 3,031, and it grew to over four thousand before World War II.
During this period before the war, Downtown Arlington was the center for business, commerce and community. It had as many as five gins to process cotton and other crops, and became the site of large produce sales and served as a distribution center for shipment to other towns. Besides agriculture, another early source of revenue was the mineral well in the center of town. Though it was dug as a public water well, it yielded mineral water, from which medicinal crystals were produced and sold. The water was also bottled for sale, and a sanitarium was built for using it to treat illness.
Arlington began its quest as a visitor destination when Arlington Downs was built in 1933, a racetrack that drew thousands of visitors until pari-mutual betting was declared illegal in Texas in 1937. The railroad helped define the town early, and this area of the original town was active with one and two-story brick buildings housing a mix of businesses, churches, and government services. The automobile and the growth to come would shape dramatic changes in the coming decades.
Following World War II, Arlington welcomed troops back with thousands of new homes in previously-undeveloped areas, and the City began feeling the effects of growth and change. 1951 was a turning point year for Arlington, with the announcement of the Bell Helicopter plant and the General Motors assembly plant fueling new employment in the area. 1951 was also the year that the frame structure over the historic mineral well at Center and Main Streets was demolished, signaling the end of an era.
Automotive and aerospace development gave the city one of the nation’s greatest population growth rates between 1950 and 1990. Arlington became one of the “boomburbs,” the extremely fast-growing suburbs of the post-World War II era. U.S. Census Bureau population figures for the city tell the story: 7,692 (1950), 90,229 (1970), 261,721 (1990), and 359,467 (2004 estimate). Tom Vandergriff served as mayor from 1951 to 1977 during this period of explosive development. Six Flags Over Texas opened in Arlington in 1961, and in 1972 the Washington Senators baseball team relocated to Arlington and began playing as the Texas Rangers, firmly establishing Arlington in the Dallas-Fort Worth area as a major sports hub for the region.
During these decades of enormous growth, cultural values in America placed more emphasis on the new, and emerging improvements in road construction and neighborhood design paved the way for the urban sprawl and center city disinvestment that has dominated the last two decades in Arlington. Many of the early buildings dating from the turn of the century through the 1930’s were torn down during this urban renewal phase of history. Downtown Arlington today includes newer public and private buildings dating from the 1970’s and 1980’s, and a few remaining historic buildings. While the lost architecture can never be rebuilt, we can learn from our past and build on what’s here today.

O2 chief executive Ronan Dunne is exploring a debt-fuelled £8.5bn management buyout attempt following the collapse of CK Hutchison’s takeover bid for the mobile operator, The Daily Telegraph can reveal.
The Irishman, 52, has been approached in recent weeks by potential private equity sponsors aiming to carry out what would be the largest UK leveraged buyout since before the financial crisis. Executives at O2’s Berkshire headquarters are running the numbers to weigh whether it would be feasible for Mr Dunne, who has led O2 for eight years and previously served as its chief financial officer, to take it independent, sources said. | 2019-04-20T00:31:41 | https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/05/15/o2-boss-mulls-management-buyout-in-wake-of-hutchison-deal-collap/ |

Thus, while the plural boys refers to a set where every member is a 'boy', the associative Tanaka-tachi does not refer to a set where every member is a person named 'Tanaka', but to a group of people only one of whom has this name. In some languages, associative reading may be available only for a very small set of nouns, as in Spanish, where the few examples include: mis padres 'my father and mother' lit.
The status of 'associativity' as a feature Despite being a grammaticalised category in some languages, associativity does not seem to have any repercussions for syntax, and therefore there are no grounds for considering it a morphosyntactic feature. However, when we consider other mismatches of agreement, the associative no longer requires a special explanation. Unserdeutsch gilt als die einzige deutschbasierte Kreolsprache.

Furthermore, a related construction, labelled 'similative plural' has been reported for some languages.

By the same token, -Var nominalisations are more clearly represent cases of indirect borrowing, as evidenced by the greater number of types which have corresponding simplex forms, and by the greater probability that the simplex forms are more frequent than the nominalisations. However, an anaphoric personal pronoun referring back to the referent of the singular noun will be plural. Dieses Buch leistet einen Beitrag zur Erforschung der Generativen Grammatik.

English Heritage initiated a major organisational review last year and one of the work streams within that review was to look at options for a number of properties where we charged admission but where the income generated did not cover the expense of manning and opening that property. Bayham Abbey was one such property that fell into that category as it has been operating at a financial loss for a number of years.
As we did not want to get into a situation where we had to close properties we took the decision at the beginning of this year to turn Bayham Abbey into a free site from the 1st April, removing the manned presence but the also the admission charge. The fact that the majority of the ruin at Bayham is external viewing only made this relatively easy to achieve and ensure that there is continued public access to the property.
A second phase of work within the organisational review is about to get underway and this will be to look at ways in which we can animate free sites such as Bayham Abbey through the use of volunteers, this work is due to report back in June. | 2019-04-25T07:48:53 | http://www.lamberhurstvillage.co.uk/Pages/Leisure-National%20Trust |
Windscreen damage remains a hazard and reality experienced by all South African motorists. Although windshield damage can result from a variety of causes, the most common is flying rocks and debris cast off from the loads of commercial trucks as well as debris projected from road surfaces under construction.
We have all experienced the small annoying chip on our windscreens. This might not trouble motorists much and can be easily fixed! It is however when the chip becomes a crack running across the windscreen that we need to consider whether it is indeed time to replace the windscreen.
In this section we would like to consider what the National Road Traffic Act stipulates about windscreen safety and why we need to look beyond the legal requirements and also focus on what is required for safety on the road!
(c) unless, in respect of a motor vehicle which, according to the registration certificate thereof, was registered for the first time after the year 1958, such transparent material is safety glass and every pane thereof is permanently marked with the name or trade mark of the manufacturer thereof or the trade name of the glass and is clearly identifiable as safety glass by a permanent mark indicating it as such.
(ii) was registered for the first time on or after 1 January 1987, consist of acrylic or polycarbonate plastic material.
(c) if, from 1 January 2000, any material or film, with a textured surface, displaying a picture or graphics is applied to the rear window that covers more than one-eight of such rear window, or windscreen or a side window.
(4) The provisions of subregulation (3) (a) (ii) shall not apply to an ambulance or a hearse or to windows complying with SABS ECE R43.
(e) which is a motor cycle, a motor tricycle or motor quadrucycle unless it is fitted with a rear-view mirror on the right side of the handlebars thereof, and such cycle shall also be fitted with a rear-view mirror on the left side of its handlebars.
(b) contemplated in subregulation (1)(d) shall be either flat or spherically convex and have an average radius or curvature of not less than one comma eight metres.
What is Legal is not necessarily what is Safe!
It is important to recognize that the National Road Traffic Act only stipulates what is required in terms of the quality of windscreen used and the need to ensure visibility for the driver. It does not make it illegal to drive where the crack is not in the view of the driver and does not obstruct his vision. Even though driving with a cracked windscreen might not be a ticketable offence it should not be construed that doing so is safe as well!
The Windshield/ Windscreen is an integral role in a car’s support structure. While during the course of normal driving an imbalance or imperfection in this structure might not be apparent, it can become deadly during a crash or collision.
In most vehicles the windshield is designed to transfer the impact of a front-end collision down through the front of the car into the chassis, helping to minimize the impact’s effect within the interior, protecting passengers. A cracked windshield can shatter under the pressure of a collision, allowing the impact of the collision to move horizontally through the car, significantly increasing the danger to passengers.
The windscreen also provides vertical support, preventing the car’s roof from crushing. During a rollover accident, a cracked or chipped windshield can allow the roof to cave in, causing potentially serious injury. Statistics overwhelmingly indicate the danger and increased risk to passengers in a rollover accident during which the roof crushes.
While seatbelts are the primary means for protecting passengers from ejection during a collision, the windshield also plays an important role. For unbelted passengers, or in situations where the seatbelt is faulty, broken, or severed in the course of the accident, the windshield can provide a final measure of protection ensuring that the passengers remain within the interior of the car. Even a minor chip in the windshield can cause the window to shatter on impact, allowing passengers to be ejected from the vehicle.
In addition to distributing the impact of a crash, the windshield provides support to the airbags, particularly those on the passenger side. When the airbag deploys during an accident, it expands outward and compresses against the windshield before pillowing out to support the passenger.
A faulty windshield cannot properly absorb the force of the inflating airbag, and can shatter, diminishing or negating the effectiveness of the airbag.
The windscreen needs to be recognized as an important component in vehicle safety. Given the dangers which can result from a damaged windshield, it is important that cracked or chipped windshields be repaired by a qualified technician as soon as possible. | 2019-04-25T00:06:22 | https://www.arrivealive.co.za/cracked-windshield-safe-driving-and-the-law |

While summer may be winding down, it doesn’t mean that your car can’t get hotter than a demon’s breath! Thank goodness for the invention of air conditioning. In the case of winter or just generally colder days, you car’s heating system is designed to keep you warm and comfortable. Likewise, you car’s air conditioning system is for keeping you nice and cool and comfortable in particularly heated days. These two systems share a lot of the same parts.
Today as an ode to our hot summer days we’re going over how air conditioners work as well as why they’re important.
Evaporator, lines, accumulator ad the same HVAC components for heating.
Much like how the heating system works, the AC is based in the internal combustion engine. Combustion generates heat and that heat exits your vehicle via the exhaust system. Any gets dissipated and regulated by water and coolant (antifreeze) which is always moving through the engine block and radiator. That’s why your car has a water pump.
All together this entire process simultaneously cools off the engine while allowing heat to be generated throughout the cabin.
After your car’s engine is warm enough, a thermostat system regulates the coolant temperature. This works via a valve which controls the flow of hot coolant that goes through the heater core. It’s a system of cables combined with electronic actuator that manage everything.
Some vehicles still use the simple rotary knob and lever system to control in internal climate and position of the airflow. Others electronics and digital or touch screen controls but the process and purpose remains the same.
It’s actually your blower motor and fan that’s changes the climate of your car. You basically adjust the different speeds and rate at which the air enters the cabin. That is how the heat becomes cold you’re your typical modern car passes all the air through a cabin filter designed to clean pollen, dust, smog, mold spores, dirt and so on from the air in your car.
Your air conditioner and heaters don’t just keep you cool or hot, they keep you breathing cleanly.
Remember to always have your car’s heating and air conditioning systems inspected regularly. You shouldn’t have to wait for coolant or refrigerant leak or improper heating or cooling. Other telltale signs could be inconsistent air flow or volume into the cabin and unusual smells. Any of these signs could mean it’s time to take your car to the shop.
Air conditioning and heating systems eventually break down over time. That’s why companies like us, Endurance often offer plans to help finance the repair of AC/Heating. Don’t let those repair bills get extra heated, any ASE certified technician can and should inspect your vehicle’s heater and air conditioning systems at least once a year. Be doubly sure to replace your vehicle’s cabin air filter as your manufacturer recommends.
If your heater and air conditioning systems are well maintained you should not only have peace of mind on the road, but that drive should be safer and way more comfortable! | 2019-04-21T20:42:16 | https://www.endurancewarranty.com/learning-center/rewind/air-conditioner-comfort-cars/ |

The award-winning author, whose psychology books have been translated in five languages, wrote these marvelous poems over a period of fifty years for her children and grandchildren. Many of them were at the request of the grandchildren who urged "Grammy" to "write a poem about my cat," "about men from Mars," "what happens when you tell a lie" or "write a poem about being jealous of a kid at school."
Funny, weird, clever and sometimes thoughtful poems. Meet the brave little triplets, the philosopher frog, the Moogly Mugfords, and even a six-foot spider.
What could happen if your pet dog turns out to be a grizzly bear, if you play with the dragon, tell a lie, know all the answers to all the questions in the world, or try to tell your friend your funniest joke.
What makes that scary sound at night? See the monsters last fight, hear the cat's dreadful duet and even meet the coolest guy in school.

The Infinite Jukebox is the result of feeding a song into The Echo Nest (a music data service) where it is decomposed into individual beats. Paul Lamere then created an algorithm to analyze each beat and match it to other similar beats in the song. Lamere explains the use of this data by stating that “[the] information is [then] used to create a detailed song graph of paths though similar sounding beats. As the song is played, when the next beat has similar sounding beats there’s a chance that we will branch to a completely different part of the song. Since the branching is to a very similar sounding beat in the song, you (in theory) won’t notice the jump. This process of branching to similar sounding beats can continue forever, giving you an infinitely long version of the song.” Just one example of the interesting uses for music data. | 2019-04-18T20:25:33 | https://antelopeasdocument.wordpress.com/2012/11/16/the-infinite-jukebox/ |

There are many reasons why people want to lose weight, it may be because of their health, but there may be more personal reasons for wanting to change.
"If I lose weight I will be able to fit into smaller dress size"
"Losing weight will mean that I won't need to take the medication for my diabetes"
"The pain in my knee will be reduced if I lose weight"
If you are overweight, spend a few minutes thinking about what losing weight would mean to you.
It’s often easy to focus only on the positive things that can come from losing weight. But often there is a cost too, as you will need to change behaviours that you enjoy or have been doing for a long time.
Thinking through the pros and cons realistically will help you to anticipate the things that might make your plans difficult to stick to, so that you can think ahead of ways to overcome them. | 2019-04-19T05:26:37 | http://www.weightconcern.org.uk/node/70 |

You’ve probably heard of the new kind of corporation that’s using business as a force for good. NPR, The New York Times, Entrepreneur Magazine, Fortune, the Atlantic Monthly and many other major media outlets have covered these Benefit (B) Corporations.
Yet, even with all of the media coverage, many consumers and even investors still wonder what sets B Corps apart from other businesses, how much difference B Corps make and whether it’s possible to make a profit while doing what’s right.
B Corps are for-profit companies certified by the nonprofit B Lab to meet rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. Globally, there are more than 2500 Certified B Corps from 50 countries and over 130 industries working to redefine success in business.
Adding verification to this pledge, Certified B Corps get audited by the nonprofit B Lab on numerous criteria “for social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency,” B Lab explains. Certified B Corps must be incorporated as a Benefit Corporation or Public Benefit Corporation (not a C or S Corp) with the applicable government organization (the state level in the U.S.), which provides the company with the legal protection to consider all stakeholders, not just shareholders. This is critical, since traditional corporate structures compel companies to put shareholders ahead of other considerations, including social or environmental values.
Ultimately, what makes a B Corp different from and more impactful than a traditional corporation that’s trying to do good (by giving away some money every year, volunteering, etc.,) is that for B Corps, doing what’s right is the reason that they exist. It’s built into their legal structure, their mission, and their values. It’s why the investors bought into the company. It’s why employees and customers stick around. And it’s what’s required of B Corps during the B Lab annual audits.
Facilities Management Services PBC (FMS) was one of the first B-Corps in Kentucky. Scott Koloms, President and owner of FMS, envisioned “a company that worked just as hard making the world the world a better place as it did being efficient and profitable. We want to show that positively affecting people’s lives beyond a pay check and positively affecting communities can lead to long-term financial success…for everyone.” FMS drives a number of social benefit programs including food-access initiatives, college-level educational opportunities, paid volunteer time and financial literacy assistance for its employees. Further, FMS works to create healthier, safer and cleaner neighborhoods where it does business. In the end, FMS enjoys lower turnover and consistent growth thanks to like-minded customers that believe in and share FMS’ values.
B Corp Eminence Organic Skin Care makes skin care products free of parabens, animal by-products, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfates, harmful colorants and fragrances, mineral oils, petroleum, and other harsh cosmetic chemicals. Its farmers follow crop rotation, companion planting, composting and other techniques to keep the soil and planet healthy. Additionally, as explained in its B Lab profile, the company gives back by working with nonprofit Trees For The Future to plant trees and create new food sources in developing countries, and has planted more than 10 million trees so far. The company also established the Eminence Kids Foundation to provide organic meals to sick children worldwide.
Thrive Impact Sourcing describes itself as an IT talent incubator delivering locally sourced IT solutions to clients. What sets this B Corp apart is that it partners with a non-profit to provide free training to unemployed and low-wage workers and then offers full-time positions with the company after successful training. “By engaging with us, clients contribute to growing a local talent pool of IT professionals to close the skills gap in our marketplace, while meeting critical business needs,” explains the company on its B Lab page.
Doing the right thing wins employee and customer loyalty for B Corps, which, in turn, affects the company’s profits in a positive way.
Koloms says that FMS has an easier time with employee recruitment, lower employee turnover, and more engaged employees. The company’s turnover went from 120 percent to 69 percent in 2.5 years since implementing the B Corp mission — phenomenal compared to the industry’s average turnover of 250 percent. He also says companies have hired FMS specifically because of FMS’ B Corp status.
A simple way for you to be the change you want to see in the world is to support B Corps with your business. “Buy from certified B Corps. You can find a list of Kentucky B Corporations on B Lab as well as a worldwide listing,” Koloms says. As of January, 2018, there were five Certified Benefit Corporations and six Public Benefit Corporations in Kentucky.
If you would like to learn more about socially conscious business models consider becoming Canopy-Certified. Canopy can help you make the most impact through your business. Its mission is to create a one-stop shop with all of the resources you need, including access to mentors, nonprofit partners, social investors and Kentucky’s influencers.

Summary dissolution of marriage offers a quicker, simpler way to divorce in Ohio.
In Ohio, there’s a faster way to get your divorce through the courts so you can get on with your life. It’s called dissolution of marriage, or simply dissolution. The only catch is that you have to get along well enough with your spouse to settle all property, spousal support, and parenting obligations without the court’s help.
How is Dissolution of Marriage Different From Divorce?
Dissolution has the same legal and practical effect as divorce: it ends the marriage. The primary difference between the two has to do with the reason for ending the marriage. For a divorce, you must have a legally accepted cause for why the marriage broke down. Also, you need to support this cause with your own and another witness’s testimony.
Causes for divorce, (sometimes called faults) range from having an affair (adultery), to willful absence for one year (abandonment), to imprisonment, among others. You can still get a divorce, however, when the marriage simply didn’t work. There are two no-fault causes – incompatibility, and living apart without interruption for one year – that allow you to do this without alleging any particularly bad behavior by your spouse.
For a dissolution, you don’t need to have any reason other than not wanting to be married anymore. If you happen to have a legal cause as well, then you can still file for dissolution. You just don’t need to declare and prove the cause. The trade off for this short cut is that the two of you must be able to settle, without the court’s involvement, every issue that arises from ending the marriage.
These issues include all property divisions – both assets and debts – spousal support (alimony), and attorney’s fees. If there are children of the marriage, then the spouses must also agree on custody arrangements, parental rights and responsibilities, visitation, and child support.
While deciding how to settle these issues, the spouses must trade financial and other information voluntarily. If you suspect your spouse is underestimating the value of the marital home, for example, then you can still hire an appraiser to give you a fair figure. You can’t, on the other hand, force your spouse to disclose information because there is no subpoena power available during this process.
Who can File for Dissolution of Marriage in Ohio?
You can file for dissolution once you meet two qualifications. First, you must be an Ohio resident for at least six months. It does not matter if your spouse lives in another state or if you were married outside of Ohio. Likewise, the duration of your marriage does not make a difference. What counts is the residency of one spouse.
Second, the spouses must be able to agree, in writing, on every legal issue that results from ending the marriage. This written agreement – called a separation agreement – must be filed with your petition for dissolution. If your spouse won’t sign the separation agreement, or if the two of you continue to fight over parenting rights or whether to sell the valuable antique you picked up during your honeymoon, for example, then you may need to file for divorce instead.
How do I File for Dissolution of Marriage in Ohio?
After signing the separation agreement, the spouses must attach it to a joint request (called a petition) for dissolution and file it with the court. If both of you have been Ohio residents for at least six months but you live in different counties, then you can file your petition in either of your home counties. If only one of you has the required Ohio residency (at least six months), then you need to file your petition in the home county of the resident spouse.
How Long Will a Dissolution of Marriage Take to Complete?
It depends, mostly, on how long it takes for you and your spouse to finish your separation agreement. Once you’ve done that, the process is relatively quick compared to a divorce where there could be numerous hearings to resolve disputes along the way. After you complete and file your separation agreement and petition, a court will set a hearing any time between 30 and 90 days.
At the hearing, both of you must appear and testify that the agreement was voluntary and that you are satisfied with it; that you have both made full disclosure of your assets and liabilities; and that you both want the marriage dissolved. If the two of you convince the court that you agree and wish to end your marriage, then the court will grant your dissolution and issue an order requiring you to follow your separation agreement.
Can I Request Alimony and Child Support in a Dissolution of Marriage in Ohio?
Yes, but your spouse will have to agree to it. Also, you may have to wait longer to receive some sort of alimony or child support payment than if you had filed for divorce. This is because in a divorce action, a court can make temporary orders awarding reasonable alimony and child support while the divorce is still pending. This is not so with a dissolution.
A court does not make temporary orders in a dissolution action. This means that you have to wait until the end of the process, when the court approves your petition for dissolution, before any agreed upon support payments go into effect.
For more on Ohio divorce and related laws, see Divorce and Family Laws in Ohio. To read more on the divorce process in Ohio see these two articles, Ohio Divorce: What You Should Know and Contested Versus Uncontested Divorce in Ohio.
If you would like to read the law on dissolution, you can find it in the Ohio Revised Code Sections 3105.61-3105.71.

First, welcome to my website!
If you are curious to know how I found my treasure and how you can find yours… then continue reading.
Just like many people, I had suffered for a long time from severe digestive issues. I turned to doctors, experts, and other people for advice but all in vain. Even worse, I couldn’t eat at restaurants or at my friends’ places. Simply because I was too nervous about the pain accompanied by digesting the meal, especially the very cheesy and delicious one. Needless to say, this attitude made people form false impressions about my personality starting from; “You’re not nice”, “You will die alone”, and “You are anti-social”. Despite using various types of traditional medications to lessen the soreness, nothing seemed to work out. As if my body was reacting against any traditional prescription. Each year, my problem had only worsened until my twenty-eighth birthday when I came across my TREASURE (and it could be yours, too).
As a surprise, my friends threw the most fascinating party where all kinds of food were prepared and well-served. Oh, I forgot to mention that the list of the food I was allowed to eat consisted of around ten items only. My doctors and I worked to exclude most types of food as a way to have a pain-free day.
However, on my birthday, there was no room not to eat by making excuses or even leaving the party early as I was used to doing in other people’s parties or gatherings. I am sure you all know the person who is never able to live the moment at ease. Well, I was that person. Instead of enjoying my birthday desserts, I was extremely anxious about what could happen. After two hours, I decided to leave the party due to my stomachache. Everyone was in shock. I sincerely apologized and headed toward the gateway with so much bitterness and sadness. How could a supposedly-simple problem ruin my best memories?
One of my friend’s co-worker called my name as I was walking outside and said; “Have you tried the DigestZen?” Obviously, the man had struggled with indigestion and understood exactly what I was going through.
When I arrived home, I googled the name and found some awesome bits of information. Next day, I gave it a go. After all, I had nothing to lose and the problem was actually destroying my best life moments.
On the very same day, magical results popped up. No more pain. I was able to enjoy my time after each meal. Food was no longer a source of anxiety and stress. It didn’t only solve my digestive issue, it transformed me as a person; I became more confident, sociable and outgoing.
However, one stumbling block was finding a solid, rich and reliable resource to depend on through my journey of learning about essential oils. I had to search for months just to understand some tips or techniques.
That is exactly why I decided to create a website to gather everything you actually need to know in order to benefit from essential oils. Simple. Magical. Transformational.
I don’t only share with you some invaluable information but an experience I believe each one is going through. Each person has one tiny problem blocking the way from reaching a comfortable life. When solved, magic happens.
I write about the most effective tips, techniques as well as uncover some secrets about essential oils. In this website, I provide information that will inspire you to a bright life using essential oils!
FINALLY, LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF.
I am 35 years old working as an IT engineer and this website is basically a place to access simple tips and wholesome techniques into essential oils.
Spreading the word about the significance of the natural oils is my first one value. I am here to answer some of your questions and guide you to your own treasure—which might be next to you.
I am happy to say that now I definitely enjoy my birthday surprises. | 2019-04-25T12:03:10 | https://www.123essentialoils.com/about-me/ |

PD is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. Most of the PD cases are idiopathic (no cause).
A small proportion of cases can be attributed to known genetic factors.
Other factors such as environmental toxins, herbicides, pesticides and fungicides have been associated with the risk of developing PD no cause in proven.
PD is non genetic disorder.
15% of individuals with PD have a first degree relative who has the disease.
At least 5% of people are now known to have forms of the disease that occur because of a mutation of one of severe specific genes.
Plantations in specific genes have been shown to cause PD.
These genes code for alpha-synuclein(SNCA) parkin(PRKN), Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK 2 or dardar in), PTEN- induced putative kinase 1 (PINK 1) DI-1 and ATPI3A2. In most cases, people with these mutations will develop PD. With the exception of LRRK2, they account for only a small minority of cases of PD. The most extensively studied PD related genes are SNCA and LRRK2 and Glucocerebrosidase (GBA) have been found to be risk factors for sporadic PD- Mutatoins in GBA are known to cause Gauchers disease.
Genome-wise association studies which search for PD mutated alleles with low penetrance in sporadic cases have now yielded many positive results.
The role of the SNCA Gene is important in PD because the alpha synuclein protein is the main component of Lewy bodies.
SNCA is expressed throughout the mammalian brain, and enriched in presynaptic nerve terminals. Missense Mutations of the gene (in which a single nucleoid is changed) and duplications and triplications of the locus containing it have been found in different groups with familial PD.
Missense mutations in SNCA are rare.
Multiplications of the SNCA locus account for around 2% of familial cases. Multiplications of the SNCA have been found in asymptomatic carriers, which indicate that penetrance is incomplete or age dependent.
Level of alpha synuclein expression correlates with disease onset and progression with SNCA gene triplication advancing earlier and faster than duplication.
LRRK2 gene (PARK 8) encodes for a protein called dardarin.
The name dardarin was taken from a basque word for tremors because this gene was first identified in families from England and the North Spain.
A significant number of autosomal dominant Parkinsons Disease cases are associated with mutations in the LRRK2 gene.
Mutation in LRRK2 are the most common known cause of familial and sporadic PD, accounting for approximately 5% of the individuals with a family history of the disease.
There are many different mutations described in exists for a small number.
Mutations in the PINK 1, PRKN and DJ1 may cause mitochondrial dysfunction an element of both idiopathic and genetic PD.
Of related interest are mutations in the progranulin gene that have been found to cause corticobasal degeneration seen in dementia.
This could be relevant in PD cases associated with dementia.
Mutations in GBA are known to cause Gauchers disease.
Incidentally both gain of functions and loss of functions GBA mutations are proposed to contribute to Parksinsonism through effects such as increased alpha synulcein level.
PD is thought to result from a complex interaction between multiple genetic and environmental factors, though rare managerial forms of the disease do exist.
Mutations in 6 genes (SNCA, LRRK2, PRKN, DJ1, Pink1 and ATP13A2) have been shown to cause familial Parksinonsism.
In common variation in 3 genes (MAPT, LRRK1 and SNCA) and loss of function mutations in GBA have been well validated.
Parkinsons Disease affects movement, producing motor symptoms, non-motor symptoms, which include autonomic dysfunction, neuro-psychiatric problems (mood, cognition, behavior or thought alterations) and sensory and sleep difficulties are also common.
There are four motor symptoms which are considered cardinal in Parkinson’s disease.
This symptom is most apparent and well-known in 30% of patient with PD don’t have tremors at disease onset. Most develop it as the disease progresses. It is usually a rest tremor. Maximal when the limb is at rest and disappearing with voluntary movement and sleep.
It affects to a greater extent the most Distal pact of the limb and at the onset typically appears in only a single arm or leg, becoming bilateral later. Frequency of PD tremor is between 4-6 hertz cycles per second. Pill rolling tremor the tendency of the index finger of the and to get into contact with the thumb and perform together a circular movement.
It is stiffness and resistance to limb movement caused by increased Muscle Tone, excessive and continuous contraction of muscles. Rigidity is uniform (Lead-pipe rigidity) or ratchet (Cogwheel rigidity). The combination f tremor and increased tone is considered to be at the origin of cogwheel rigidity. It may be associated with joint pains, frequent. In the beginning it is asymmetrical rigidity, neck is affected shoulder muscles prior to the muscles of the face and extremities. Rigidity affects the whole body and reduces the ability to move.
It is associated with difficulties along the whole course of the movement process, from planning to initiation and finally execution of a movement. Performance of sequential and simultaneous movements is hindered. Bradykinesia is a very disabling symptom in the early stages of the disease. Initial complaints are problems when performing daily tests which require fine motor control like writing, sewing or getting dressed.
Clinical evaluation is based in similar tasks such as alternating movements between both hands or both feet.
Bradykinesia is not equal for all movement or times. It is modified by the action activity or emotional state of the subject, to the point that some people are barely able to walk yet can still ride a bicycle. Generally people with PD have less difficulty when some sort of external cue is provided.
It is seen in the last stage of disease, leading to impaired balance and frequent falls, then to bone fractures. Up to 40% may experience falls and around 10% may have falls weekly, with number of falls being related to severity.
Festinating (rapid shuffling steps and forward flexed pasture when walking, speech, swallowing disturbances, including voice disorder may be seen. Mask like face expression or small handwriting may seen.
Parkinsonism word is used for a motor syndrome. The main symptoms are tremor at rest, stiffness, slowing of movement and postural instability.
It means Parkinsonism with no external identifiable cause. In recent years several genes that are directly related to some causes of Parkinson’s Disease have been discovered.
The term Familial Parkinson’s Disease and Sporadic Parkinson’s Disease can be used to differentiate genetic from truly idiopathic forms of disease.
Usually classified as a movement disorder PD also gives rise to many non-motor types of symptoms like sensory deficits, cognitive difficulties or sleep problems.
Parkinson’s Plus Disease are primary Parkinsonism’s which present additional features. They include Multiple System Arophy, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration and dementia with Lewy Bodies.
In terms of pathophysiological part, PD is considered a Synucleiopathy due to abnormal accumulation of alpha synuclein protein in the brain in the form of Lewy Bodies, as opposed to other disease such as Alzheimer’s Disease, where the brain accumulates Tan Protein in the form of Neurofibrollary Tangles.
The most typical symptoms of the Alzheimer’s Disease, dementia, occurs in advanced stages of PD, while it is common to find neurofibrillary tungles in brains affected by PD.
Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) is another synucleiop that has similarities with PD, and especially with the subsets of PD cases with dementia. | 2019-04-22T01:01:01 | http://www.modernhomeopathy.co.in/blog/author/nikhilesh/page/4/ |
The unwarranted consumption of alcohol is becoming a problem on a universal scale, resulting in numerous societal problems upsetting all walks of life. In northern Ireland the Chief Medical Officer ? Dr Michael McBride has identified the widespread use of alcohol amid the younger generation. In Northern Ireland children as young as 11 are drinking and by the age of 16 it is believed four out of five teenagers will have had an alcoholic drink of some type. Dr McBride hints that the motive behind so many young people turning to drink in Northern Ireland is to raise their social and sexual confidence and called on better awareness of the damage that alcohol can do. Unfortunately extreme consumption of alcohol among teenagers is having a negative impact on communities across Northern Ireland mainly in urban areas.
Within 2 years child crime has risen by almost 20% mainly fueled by alcoholic consumption involving children as young as seven. In contrast, burglary, vehicle crime and criminal damage have seen little or no rise while alcohol-related offences have shot up by as much as a third. In Northern Ireland The Garda youth diversion programme has been put in place to lessen this anti social behavior with some positive results. Children suspected of crimes under this system are given the option to redeem themselves by compensating or saying sorry to victims.
Around 60-70% of the children have not re-offended inside the first year after being accepted into this scheme. Obviously these problems are not confined to Northern Ireland and around the world countries are taking their own steps to reduce the social effects of alcohol-related incidents. In recent years millions have been invested on an yearly basis by drink companies in Kenya on measures to tackle alcohol abuse, underage drinking and drink driving.
Sales in of alcoholic beverages have increased rapidly and these companies have invested a lot in campaigns to try and stem the sometimes negative effect. Advertising, warnings on bottle labels and bartender training are just some of the ideas that have been put into action. The National Alcohol Beverages Association of Kenya (Nabak) working with The Pubs Entertainment Restaurants Association of Kenya (Perak) have been directing the drinking habits of Kenyans by persuading alcohol selling outlets to endorse sensible drinking. The result has been very positive seeing in a significant downward trend in underage drinking following recent campaigns. Other countries are using other methods in their attempt to control alcohol abuse. Australia has introduced restrictions in its Northern Territory, and in some towns photo identification must be shown when buying alcoholic drinks.
These new procedures have not gone down well with everyone and some publicans have been subject to abuse, but on the whole the general consensus amongst retailers is that this is a decisive move in the fight against the rising social problems connected with alcohol.

The Globe Theater is an amazing structure, with seating for many, which holds an interesting history.
The Globe Theatre has a unique structure. The theater was created by Shakespeare, "Globe Theatre was an early open-air English theater in London. Most of the great English playwright William Shakespeare's plays were first presented at the Globe"(Seidel). The Globe Theatre is the largest amphitheater in London. Shakespeare mentioned his theatre in his play, "In the play Henry V, Shakespeare called his theater a "wooden O." It was a large, round (or polygonal) building, three stories high, with a large platform stage that projected from one end into a yard open to the sky. In the back wall of this stage was a curtained-off inner stage"(Anderson). The Globe Theatre is a very large building , which has performed many shows. The theatre is full of secrets, "Flanking the inner stage were two doors for entrances and exits. Above this inner stage was a small balcony or upper stage, which could be used to suggest Juliet's balcony or the high walls of a castle or the bridge of a ship. Trapdoors were placed in the floor of the main stage for the entrances and exits of ghosts and for descents into hell"(Anderson). The theatre’s secret ways are used by actors to get in and out quicker.
The theater had seating for many people to enjoy the performances. The audience were disrespectful during the shows, "The crowds that went to Shakespeare plays at the Globe were about as well-dressed, attentive, and well-mannered as your typical audience at a Marilyn Manson concert. Most people ended up in "the yard," where there were no seats. Roughly 1,000 people could stand there, but lots more crammed in"(Cohen). The 1,000 people were very rude and wild during the performances. There were different seats for different prices, "Woman had to be accompanied by men, no matter where they sat. Expensive seats held by the wealthy cost a 6-penny fee and included a cushion, a roof covering, and the best view of the actors. Prestigious seating was called the Lord's Room, and it allowed for seeing and being seen. One-penny "seats" were in the yard." The richer got better seats and the poor got worse seating. The Yard is an area of seating for the audience, "refreshments available: hazelnuts, apples, and ale. There were no seats, but a penny (an entire day's wage for a typical grounding) would get you a seat on the stairs leading to the galleries. Another penny would buy you a cushion. If it rained, you got wet"(Cohen). At least the people in The Yard had the opportunity to purchase food and drink and enjoy the show. The audience weren’t always respectful, "Unlike today, Elizabethan theater was a rowdy event, and the Globe's audiences were more like spectators at a sporting event than respectful and passive observers. Equally vocal and enthusiastic in their support and their criticism, audience members cheered their favorite actors and threw garbage at those they did not like"(Hager). The people watching also, cheered the actors they like and were disrespectful to the actors they did not.
The Globe Theatre was a great place for shows, but it had a bad history. The theater was attacked more than once, “Globe Theatre, London playhouse, built in 1598, where most of Shakespeare's plays were first presented. It burned in 1613, was rebuilt in 1614, and was destroyed by the Puritans in 1644. A working replica opened in 1997”(EBSCO). Some people were against the theater, so they attacked it. The theater was opposed by many people, "Puritans closed the Globe (and other theatres in London) in 1642 because the theater was drawing a bigger crowd than the church. Convinced theater was immoral, the Puritans made it illegal, and the Globe was torn down in 1644"(Cohen). The Puritans thought the theater was getting too much attention. The building had to be rebuilt multiple times, "In 1613, during a performance of Shakespeare's Henry VIII, a cannon shot during a staged battle ignited the thatched roof, and the Globe burned to the ground without serious casualties. Within a year the theater was rebuilt, this time with a tile roof, and it continued to host performances until 1642 when the Puritan government, strongly opposed to all forms of entertainment, shuttered every theater in London. The Globe was torn down two years later." A cannon shot at it and then the Puritans shut it down, so builders keep having to rebuild the structure.

Yamaha Motor Europe showed off the race-ready YZF-R6 during the EICMA International Motorcycle Exhibition in Milan last night.
Inspired by YZR-M1 technology with the distinctive R-Series design, the showcasing of this full-blooded racing machine was Yamaha’s first step in preparing its customers and racers for what’s to come in the next year, when the YZF-R6 will chase glory in the 2017 FIM Supersport World Championship.
GRT Yamaha Official WorldSSP Team’s Lucas Mahias and Federico Caricasulo as well as Kallio Yamaha Supported WorldSSP Team’s Niki Tuuli and Sheridan Morais attended the EICMA Press Conference to get a first glimpse of the 2017 YZF-R6.
This new middleweight Supersport bike is incredibly similar to their racing bikes for next season due to the championship’s regulations that only allow very subtle alterations made to the consumer bike’s cylinder head, gearbox, suspension, rear shock, front fork, electronic system and brake rotors.
Having won the FIM Supersport World Championship three times in the last seven years (2009: Cal Crutchlow / 2011:Chaz Davies / 2013: Sam Lowes), the YZFR6 has already proved it’s competitiveness but that hasn’t stopped Yamaha from taking it one step further with the new 2017 model.
As the YZF-R6 is to re-enter the WorldSSP Championship in 2017, Yamaha have completely restyled the 600cc Supersport bike with a radical new look to match its ambitions. The new design is clearly inspired by the latest generation MotoGP and WorldSBK models – the M1-type central forced air intake, recessed LED twin headlights and new YZF-R1 style tail just being three examples – giving the bike an intense look that’s instantly recognizable as being a member of the R-series family, while its own unique character still shines through.
The YZF-R6 is known for its light handling, agility and speed. Yamaha’s Supersport design team has been working relentlessly to push the performance in each of these areas and their hard work has paid off. A new front cowl, windscreen and a low drag front fairing, developed using some of the key elements from the YZF-R1, give a significant improvement of 8% in aerodynamic efficiency. Additionally, the YZF-R6 also comes with a new slimline magnesium rear subframe that’s 20mm narrower at the front, allowing the rider to tuck in more closely to the tank for a more streamlined rider position, while a newly designed seat and rear subframe make it quicker and easier for the rider to shift his body weight.
The YZF-R6 has always been a frontrunner, both in terms of getting the results on track and being the first to adopt innovative technology. Besides being equipped with a Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) and a Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake (YCC-I) for a high degree of controllability in a wide range of conditions, the new YZF-R6 comes with an advanced Traction Control System (TCS) that is adjustable by a switch on the handlebars. The YZF-R6 also comes equipped with a new Quick Shift System (QSS) for even faster gear changing.
This system is similar to the design used on the YZF-R1, and instantly cancels drive torque when an upshift is detected – enabling full throttle clutchless upshifts for outstanding acceleration through the close ratio 6-speed transmission.
Other outstanding bike features of the YZF-R6 displayed at EICMA include the full race fairing (consisting of a two-piece front and single piece seat), an Akrapovic Evo full Titanium exhaust, dual Brembo T-drive front brakes (disc Ø 320 mm), single Brembo rear brake (disc Ø 220 mm), telescopic forks (Ø 43 mm) front suspension with Ohlins Cartridge kit, and threaded Pirelli Diablo tyres (front: 120/70 ZR17M/C, rear: 180/55 ZR17M/C) as per championship regulations.
Alongside the genuine accessories, the showcased racing features are all available through the official Yamaha dealer network. | 2019-04-25T20:25:03 | https://www.mcnews.com.au/2017-yamaha-yzf-r6-in-race-trim/ |

I have just finished teaching Explain Pain 3 (EP3) seminars in the United States with Lorimer Moseley and Mark Jensen – many thanks for the enthusiastic support from the US for what more than one participant referred to as ‘countercultural’ material – notions of education as therapy, self treatment, alternatives to medication and minimising treatment are certainly not mainstream.
As I left Seattle, the conference manager, who had become quite interested in the material present passed me recent data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Opioid deaths had passed 30,000 in 2015 and the recent heroin boom increased further with ongoing attempts at restricting traditional opioids. For the first time, there were more heroin deaths than gun homicides.
A sobering end to my trip. Maybe crisis will evoke change?
I would say that there’s nothing that will actually change. Have you noticed the shift in any acknowledgement of the scientific method? By the way, laxatives are already being touted for opioid use.
In my estimation, the battle is already over. The absence of any use of “pain science” began this.
I suspect until we humans, en masse, start to better understand ourselves and what drives our behaviour, substantial change in such a context may well be very difficult. Having said that, there are countries around the world which deal with these issues arguably far better than others. So are there any reasons why we can’t learn from them ?

The rally in oil prices that began after oil prices hit a 13-year low in January remains intact. This is in spite of the multiple failed attempts of key-oil-producing countries to reach an agreement on output ceilings. The price of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) oil basket hit a nearly-seven-month high of USD 45.6 per barrel on 2 June. Although this represented a 7.3% gain over the same day of the previous month, oil prices are still down 26.9% on an annual basis.
The 2 June OPEC conference resulted in another unfruitful attempt to reach an agreement on oil production. That said the members were under little pressure this time to take any action as oil prices have been on an upward trend in recent months. Moreover, attendees determined that supply and demand are gradually converging and that the crude market is undergoing a rebalancing process. Behind the scenes, the main debate was weather the cartel should agree on a general oil production freeze for all OPEC countries—a move defended by Saudi Arabia and its Gulf allies—or reestablish country-specific quotas as Iran and some financially-strapped nations suggested. The next OPEC conference is scheduled for 30 November.
Oil prices are gradually recovering some of the ground lost in recent years as declining oil-related investment is finally translating into lower oil supply. Moreover, other factors such as militants’ attacks on oil facilities in Nigeria, fierce fighting around oil terminals in Libya and a wildfire in one of Canada’s principal oil regions are also adding upward pressure on oil prices. On the other hand, healthier demand from some emerging markets, particularly India, as well as developed nations is boosting overall demand.
OPEC pumped 32.44 million barrels per day (mbpd) in April, which was up from the 32.25 mbpd extracted in March. According to the latest OPEC Monthly Oil Market Report, April’s increase in output mainly reflected much stronger production in Iran, Iraq and the United Arab Emirates. On the other hand, Kuwait and Nigeria recorded significant production declines in the same month. Saudi Arabia produced 10.13 mbpd in April, which matched its output in the previous month.
FocusEconomics Consensus Forecast panelists expect oil production in Saudi Arabia to average of 10.14 mbpd this year. In 2017, our panel of analysts sees crude output remaining broadly stable at 10.17 mbpd.

Significant health care disparities exist in the United States. Nurses can play an important role eliminating these disparities. International immersion experiences for undergraduate nursing students may provide long-lasting enhancements in cultural competency and improvements in professional practice. The purpose of this descriptive qualitative study is to explore how a faculty-led international immersion experience for undergraduate nursing students in public health nursing has influenced cultural competency and how this is perceived to have impacted the individuals' current professional practice. Campinha-Bacote's (2002) Process of Cultural Competence in the Delivery of Health Care Services served as a theoretical framework for the study. Participants were sampled based on their experiences in either Bangladesh or Uganda from 2011 to 2013 as part of an international immersion program for undergraduate nursing students. Participants were asked to provide a written response to three prompts. Analysis was guided by the method developed by Colaizzi (Polit & Beck, 2012). Seven individuals agreed to participate. The data collected was somewhat limited in terms of depth, but it did reveal the themes of positive personal and professional development as well as the self-perceived enhancement of one's cultural competency. These findings are discussed within the context of the literature reviewed. Finally, the methodology of this study is reflected upon and recommendations are made for a follow-up study. This study supports the idea that an international immersion experience for undergraduate nursing students is an overall positive experience and can benefit professional practice as well as enhance one's cultural competency. However, more research is still needed to assess specifically how professional practice is benefited and to what extent these benefits are maintained overtime.

For authentic Jamaican fare, Sattdown Jamaican Grill in Studio City is a must-visit. Chef/owner Tony learned to cook from the best: his grandmother. She prepared meals for nearby villagers in their native Jamaica, and he would be by her side.
Jamaica’s signature sauce is jerk, originally designed to cure meats before there was refrigeration. The staple ingredients are garlic, thyme, scotch bonnet peppers, allspice and onion. It is spicy and oh so slightly sweet, and Chef Tony’s is amazing.
Clearly, this place has a loyal following. The servers are affable, and seemed to know many of the customers. Chef Tony is jovial, and comes out of the kitchen to chat when he can.
In the mood for meat, and eschewing the curry goat, this reviewer opted for the jerk oxtail, and was not disappointed. The meat was tender and moist, and the sauce was divine, with the precise amount of kick. Accompanied by fried plantains, steamed veggies and rice and peas, (actually red beans) it was heaven on a plate. And a healthy portion, too, so a to-go box was in order.
Sattdown Jamaican Grill is located at 11320 Ventura Blvd. in Studio City. Call (818) 766-3696 or visit sattdownjamaicangrill.com for complete menu and hours of operation. | 2019-04-24T00:52:28 | https://tolucantimes.info/entertainment/restaurant-review/sattdown-jamaican-grill-brings-caribbean-flavor-to-studio-city/ |
Pokémon Maize is an ambitious hack that overhauls Pokémon Red Version and brings a whole new experience to the player. I've been working on Maize periodically for nearly four years now, so it has a lot of new features! The current release is Beta 2.2, which is essentially a revamp from Beta 1. There are tons of new features and gameplay that wasn't in Beta 1, and the Beta ends after 4 badges in Pyrite City. Keep reading below to see what new things Maize's Beta 2.2 has to offer.
I decided to stick with a traditional Poké-storyline. An organization known as Team Quarry is excavating vast amounts of materials from the ground in pursuit of building a mighty city to be the center of their empire (or something like that). While wielding your trusty broom, you set out on an adventure to become a Pokémon master. Explore the region of Boldor while you attempt to thwart Team Quarry and tolerate your ridiculous childhood acquaintance.
Q:"Why didn't I receive the Town Map?"
A:Your rivals sister didn't give it to you. You can acquire it later on.
Q:"Why aren't my Running Shoes working?"
A:You need to press and hold the B button. You also need to acquire them from somebody in Agate City.
Q:"Why won't my Item Stone evolve my Slowpoke/Magmar/etc.?"
A:Those Pokémon aren't in the game. Please see the list of new Pokémon in further down in this thread.
Q:"Why isn't my Ring working?"
A:Items like the Shield Ring or Scouter only work when they are equipped in the top slot of the inventory. That means that only one special item can be equipped at a time. When in doubt, read the in-game item descriptions by selecting them in the items menu.
Q:"Why can't I find the Old Rod?"
A:It's in Agate City. Just look harder.
Q:"What is the main character holding in his hand?"
Please note that not all of these items are obtainable in Beta 2.2. They are all fully functional in the game, though.
The current release of Maize is playable through 4 badges, the last of which is in Pyrite City. You can download the .ips patch from the link provided above, and then you'll need to apply the patch to the Pokémon Red Version (english) ROM using a .ips patcher program, such as Lunar Magic.
2.2 - Nuzlocke NPC gives a Clefairy instead of Paras. Various bug fixes. Added Shiny Pokemon, Shiny Ring, and Shiny Ball.
2.1 - Added NPC who gives you HM-compatible Pokemon in Nuzlocke mode to prevent player from getting stuck. Fixed Basalt Cave ladder placement.
2.0 - Complete overhaul of beta 1. Rebuilt entire project using the pokered disassembly. Added many new features.
1.2.1 - Fixed evolution bug that calculated new stats incorrectly.
1.2 - Finished Pyrite City. Added Honchkrow. Fixed growlithe evolution bug. Fixed starters' evolutions' growth rates.
1.1.2 - Added Nostalgia-filled building and Pyrite City Outpost. Fixed some typos.
1.1.1 - Bug fixes: pokedex now correctly displays caught/seen status; Growlithe no longer evolves by level if the battle is finished with Mareep; PP UP now works; fixed shared map data for Jade Village house and Pyrite City house.
1.1.0 - Fixed future-gen attack animations. Finished Ma(i)ze house in Pyrite City. Squirtle is obtainable.
1.0.0 - Initial Release. Playable through 4 badges.
If you think you or somebody else belongs on this list, please let me know! I've probably forgotten to mention some individuals.
Look's amazing, keep it up the good work.
I'm not a fan of 1st gen but looks cool.
If you used Swampert's mart editor, it uses the hex value for the wrong PP UP.
The real PP UP has an ID of $4F, and there is another item with the name "PP UP", but it can't be used and it has an ID of $32.
Swampert's mart editor uses $32.
Anyway, this looks really cool. I'll try this out tomorrow.
EDIT: HAHA, I love your new Town Map script!
Whaaat? 1st gen is the bomb! Thanks, though!
I didn't use the mart editor, but I made the exact same mistake. It's good to know that this is a well-known thing. The reason I haven't fixed it yet is because I can't remember exactly where in the game you acquire the PP UP..... I'll find it on my next playthrough, though.
I see you're just another typical RPG protagonist bursting into others' homes without permission!
Ah yeah, you posted it also here!
I played also the Demo: it's enjoyable and it offers things which aren't expected in the most common "minor" hacks of Red\Blue.
You put also a GivePokemon-like script, right?
Generally this game seems to be very cool and promises to be nice, keep the good work up mate!
Thanks for playing! Yeah, nobody seems to post on the thread at pokecommunity. Plus, this place seems more relevant for Gen 1 hacks, so I figured I would come over.
What script is the "GivePokemon-like script" referring to? There are several scripts in the game that I'm especially proud of.
Cool hack! I always like when people insert custom music in their hacks.
It all looks neat from what I can see, but the player overworld sprite doesn't seem to fit into the rest of the game. I think it's the style of the hands, they usually have little ball hands.
Can someone make it in .jar please?
Cool. So good that you have added the dark-steel/type. And some more pokemon and moves. Will you also add a second region in te upcoming betas?
I'm sorry to report this, but I was still in the middle of the second dungeon when I caught a 26th Pokémon (Abra) and then the Pokédex got extremely glitched up.
In the Pokédex, there is a Pokéball still next to the correct Pokémon that I have caught, but some of them are not marked as "seen" (as in, some have a Pokéball next to a row of dashed lines).
So my "owned" data is still correct, but now it says I have seen 119 Pokémon. I can see the new Pokémon in the Pokédex up to Murkrow, but after that, the seen Pokémon are completely random (repeats of old Pokémon, glitched Pokémon). And I can scroll down to 203 before the game freezes.
I don't know what caused this. It could have been from catching a 26th Pokémon, it could be that Abra is broken, or it could have been coincidence. But the Pokédex worked completely fine up until now.
Also, wasn't the limit of Pokemon set to 164?
If so, the limit of Pokedex entries probabilly has to be set to 164 instead of a higher number.
I experimented some of those problems in the early developement stages of my hack too, but then I fixed them.
80C, of course I would have considered those options.
The reason that this is unlikely is because it worked for so long with zero problems, even with catching 2nd gen Pokémon, like Murkrow.
Maybe that still occours because ShantyTown didn't changed Oak Rating System yet (it's not hard to figure out) or maybe because the Flags were repointed in a location that may interfere with other flags such as badges, pokemon in the party etc.
Haha, I just realized something mid-sentence.
Hm, now that you mention it, the game told me I couldn't throw a Pokéball because Box 1 was full, so I went to change boxes and then caught Abra.
So I actually had 6 Pokémon in my party, 19 Pokémon in Box 1, and then the glitching started when I had 1 Pokémon in Box 2.
a game with a new storyline and music.i like it!
A couple people have mentioned that the player's overworld sprite doesn't fit in. I kind of agree, but he's the main character from another game called Anodyne, so I don't want to change him at all... I guess I could try and change him to be more Pokemon-like, but I'm not exactly gifted in the artistic realm of things.
I don't know much about this process, but here is a thread describing how to make one.
Now, regarding this pokedex bug... I fixed the first (and simplest) issue, which was that you could scroll 8 pokedex slots past the last-seen pokemon. It was simply an off-by-one error in the pokedex viewing routine.
Danny, thanks for providing me more info with how you noticed the caught/seen bug start. I initially thought there was a super easy fix to it, but that didn't turn out to be true.
EDIT: I also just found the bug you described about the girl standing in a bookshelf. Apparently, the map of the school in Viridian City and the room where you acquire EEVEE in Celadon share the same map data... Guess I'll have to fix that, too.
EDIT2: I just discovered that the bug is related to switching boxes.
I released a new patch (beta 1.1.1) with lots of bug fixes. I believe I've fully resolved the pokedex caught/seen bug. You can read the list of changes in the changelog in the first post!
Just a little question: Does the newpatched game work with the savefile of the old game?
I'm not sure. I haven't tested it. If I had to guess, I would say "yes, it works".
I've made some progress in Pyrite City the past few days. I completed a building which will let you experience maximum nostalgia.
I also finished the Outpost in Pyrite City. You get your first Moon Stone there.
Wow, i like it nice work.
Wow, this just looks like another game!
TMOTW have reason, looks like an game that happen in the space, or something like that.
I'll accompany others - that screenshot does look interesting!
I haven't tried out this hack yet, but I may do that eventually. Haven't been that into playing others' hacks although I like following updates on some specific hacks. There are so many I would like to try out (not talking about pokemon specifically, mainly hacks of other games) but then again, there are things I prefer to doing that. | 2019-04-19T18:41:30 | https://hax.iimarckus.org/topic/3990/ |
The management of MAGO KLANGATELIERS is also co-founder of the association Audiogate – Association for the Promotion of Austrian Music, which has been active on both RADIO ORANGE and OKTO TV since 2017.
The program “Newborn – The Bands of Tomorrow” on RADIO ORANGE presents bands who speak and make music live in the radio studio. We already had artists like Voodoo Jürgens, Seiler and Speer and Ankathie Koi. Bands who contact us also have the opportunity to apply for the program “In the Basement” on OKTO TV. The concept is to visit the bands in their rehearsal rooms and to interview them in their “natural environment” as well as to film during a live performance.
Audiogate gets you on the stage! Our events are charity events. So far, we have been successful in St. Anna Childhood Cancer Research and the Crypt. Do you also want to do something good next to a music production? Then check back regularly with us for the next events.
Without the assurance and the recording of the high quality of your music, you can not perform with us either. Therefore, it is necessary to send us a recording of your music in studio quality to us.
As part of the TV and radio projects, the MAGO KLANGATELIER mainly works behind the scenes. We take care of the audio editing in our concert reports (post-production), are also interviewers at concerts, part of the conception, provide audio equipment and are part of the filming crew. | 2019-04-20T14:15:18 | http://klangatelier.at/en/tvradioevents/ |
Imagine you’ve just come back from lunch and a network outage has brought your company to a standstill. You look over to your senior network engineer’s empty desk and remember he’s enjoying a vacation on the pink sands of Bermuda. Your team doesn’t have enough knowledge about the part of the network that’s effected — only the senior engineer does — so your team begins sifting and scanning through network data to find the issue.
There’s no common knowledge repository. All network diagrams and reports are kept on someone’s personal drive or buried in email threads, making it nearly impossible to troubleshoot an outage in real time.
The network hero as a single point of failure. If there’s only one person who has the expertise (the “network hero”) and his or her knowledge is not shared among other team members, network management and troubleshooting becomes exponentially more difficult.
No one can know everything. Consider the common issue of a slow application. There could be a number of reasons for slowness, from network latency to an under-powered app server. The network is part of a larger collection of interdependent pieces, and no one engineer can know everything about it all. Knowledge-sharing among engineers and teams is crucial.
The goal here isn’t necessarily to hire an entire team of CCIEs (though that would be cool), it’s to arm engineers with the knowledge and tools they need to address incidents and work across knowledge silos. We need to avoid teams being paralyzed because one person is unavailable, like in the case of the vacationing engineer. Or worse, what if the network hero retires or gets another job? All that critical tribal knowledge walks out the door with him. The answer is to break down barriers and make information easily available to create an entire team of network heroes by developing a culture of collaboration and knowledge-sharing.
NetBrain directly addresses the issue of knowledge-sharing and collaboration both on the incident and infrastructure level. One of the core functions of Executable Runbooks is to enable teams to digitize best practices, policies, procedures and anything else that might be otherwise living in someone’s head, on handwritten notes or in a departmental playbook.
Codify your troubleshooting tribal knowledge into Executable Runbooks. Making this expertise executable empowers every engineer on your team to be a “Network Hero” who can solve the tough problems.
Executable Runbooks can be used to automate repetitive tasks, such as network troubleshooting steps and compliance checks — without having to write a single line of code. Runbooks make knowledge transfer not only possible but quite easy.
When you get down to it, a Runbook is a series of steps or tasks. Exactly what those steps would be depends on what you want to do. Think about our network hero in Bermuda: based on his experience and tribal knowledge, he’d go through a methodical series of steps to pinpoint the issue. Problem is, of course, that only he knows where and what to check for probable causes, and only he knows which steps need to be taken and in what kind of logical, sequential order.
That’s where Runbooks come in. Each step he would take is delineated in the Runbook, and the associated task is automatically run with a mouse click. For example, your network hero might first rule out the most common causes — say, an interface speed or duplex mismatch. If that’s not it, he’d look for other usual suspects like high interface utilization. If he sees something there, he then follows certain steps. If he doesn’t find trouble with high memory of CPU utilization, he takes another troubleshooting route.
With Runbooks, all the network hero’s decision-making process is documented in “if-then” branches so the next best steps are automated for anyone on the team to follow. In the Runbook below, each successive step is a Qapp that performs one specific task.
Build “if/then” branches into Runbooks to automate next best steps for anyone on the team to follow – e.g., if errors are increasing on an interface, check for a duplex mismatch.
Or maybe the next step is to issue various CLI commands to collect and analyze data. Runbooks enable you to automate CLI commands across multiple devices in one fell swoop, and then visualize the output within the context of the problem at hand right on a Dynamic Network Map.
Automatically issue CLI commands across multiple devices simultaneously and get the relevant data – like HSRP active/standby status or QoS queue drops – displayed right on the map.
So, instead of relying on your network hero to be available 24×7, incorporate his or her expertise into automatically executed procedures with runbook automation tools. Runbooks can be customized to any workflow, and — best of all — you don’t need to write any complicated Python scripts. The NetBrain drag-and-drop visual programming environment allows you to codify network knowledge into lightweight applications. It’s automation without coding.
Check out how easy it is to use and build a Runbook in Matt Speidel’s blog post How Executable Runbooks Work.
Codifying tribal knowledge is just one way NetBrain automation makes the life of a network engineer easier.

Hi My name is Chris Lewis...I am a professional tennis instructor.
My background in tennis spans over 45 years. I was the Number One ranked junior tennis player in the world in 1975, winning Junior Wimbledon and finishing runner-up in The US Open Juniors the same year.
As a pro, my best performance was making the Wimbledon Final in 1983, losing to John McEnroe.
I was the winner of three singles tour events, the finalist in seven others, as well as winning eight doubles titles and a finalist in eight more. My career high singles ranking was nineteen, achieved in 1984.
My coaches were two of the best in the history of the game - Harry Hopman and Tony Roche.
After I retired from the Pro Tour in 1986, I soon became heavily involved in tennis coaching. In 1989, I began working with the German player, Carl-Uwe Steeb, whose ranking climbed from 100 to a career high of 14 during the time we spent together.
From 1991-1993, I spent three memorable years coaching and training Ivan Lendl, one of the game's all-time greats.
From the beginning of 1997 to the end of 2005, together with my brother, Mark, I was the Coach/Manager of Auckland Tennis Inc's Junior Development Program.
During this time, I have worked extensively with Auckland's best young players, including Marina Erakovic, GD Jones, William Ward, Sacha Jones and Sean Berman.
I have recently moved to California, where I own Tennis-Experts, the online tennis equipment specialists, and where I am also continuing to pursue my passion for tennis, concentrating my efforts on helping aspiring young players become the best they can be.
And if you'd like to know more about the phenomenal junior tennis program I'm now involved with at The Woodbridge Tennis Club in Irvine, Orange County, you can click here to find out about the facility, the staff and some of the best young junior players in Southern California.
Again, I am Chris Lewis from New Zealand. And I welcome and invite your questions. | 2019-04-20T20:15:44 | http://www.expert-tennis-tips.com/about-expert-tennis-tips.html |

At least 447 Christian missionaries have “died violently” in the first 17 years of the third millennium, the Fides news agency announced in a special report Saturday.
Five bishops, 313 priests, three deacons, 61 religious men and women, 16 seminarians, three members of institutes of consecrated life, 42 lay people, and four volunteers were killed while carrying out missionary work, Fides said.
“This figure is undoubtedly low since it refers only to the cases of which we have received confirmation,” noted Fides, the information service of the Pontifical Mission Societies.
The Vatican synod for bishops which is currently taking place in Rome focuses on young people, and the Fides report paid special attention to young missionaries who have died for their faith.
“Accepting the mission implies the willingness to risk one’s life and to travel the way of the cross, in the footsteps of Jesus, who firmly set out on his journey to Jerusalem to offer his life for humanity,” stated the synod’s preparatory document.
The report profiles twelve young Christian missionaries, from a diversity of backgrounds, who were violently killed in the first 17 years of the millennium.
One religious sister profiled in the report, the 22-year-old Dominican Sr. Lita Castillo, was stabbed by two attackers in Chile as she slept in the dormitory with her fellow the nuns, along with another 19 religious sisters who were beaten and wounded. The assailants poured flammable liquid over the nuns and set fire to the college. Sister Lita suffered burns over 70 percent of her body. Known for her joy, enthusiasm and dedication, she died on October 29, 2001.
Another missionary, the 32-year-old Rwandan Sister M. Reginette, was murdered in Yemen by Islamist terrorists on March 4, 2016. Sister M. Reginette was the youngest of four Missionaries of Charity murdered and disfigured by a commando of armed militants of the Islamic State who stormed the building where they helped the elderly and disabled in the city of Aden. During the terrorist attack, 12 other people were killed, including a driver, two community helpers and elderly and disabled patients, while the Superior of the convent escaped death.
A manuscript detailing the attack reported that the terrorists “smashed and destroyed” all the religious articles they could find: the tabernacle, altar, crucifix, statues, Bibles and prayer books.

The 2nd Annual General Meeting was held on Monday the 21st of May 2018 at Ryu Honbu Dojo.
Before the meeting, a special seminar was hosted by the RWAF and taught by Ando Sensei. Around 20 students attended this seminar including students from Poland, the Ukraine and the United Kingdom. The seminar focussed on small front and back foot movements that allow us to create a greater distance between ourselves and uke; allowing us to unbalance them and better control their movements.
After the seminar, two students from the Kairyukan in Okinawa tested for their instructors licenses.
After that, everybody enjoyed lunch together before the AGM began.

A neutrino event, identifiable by the rings of Cerenkov radiation that show up along the photomultiplier tubes lining the detector walls, showcase the successful methodology of neutrino astronomy. This image shows multiple events.
Sometimes, the best-designed experiments fail. The effect you're looking for might not even occur, meaning that a null result should always be a possible outcome you're prepared for. When that happens, the experiment is often dismissed as a failure, even though you never would have known the results without performing it.
Yet, every once in a while, the apparatus that you build might be sensitive to something else entirely. When you do science in a new way, at a new sensitivity, or under new, unique conditions, that's often where the most surprising, serendipitous discoveries are made. In 1987, a failed experiment for detecting proton decay detected neutrinos, for the first time, from beyond not only our Solar System, but from outside of the Milky Way. This is how neutrino astronomy was born.
The conversion of a neutron to a proton, an electron, and an anti-electron neutrino is how Pauli hypothesized resolving the energy non-conservation problem in beta decay.
Alpha decay, where a larger atom emits a helium nucleus, jumping two elements down the periodic table.
Beta decay, where an atomic nucleus emits a high-energy electron, moving one element up the periodic table.
Gamma decay, where an atomic nucleus emits an energetic photon, remaining in the same location on the periodic table.
In any reaction, under the laws of physics, whatever the total energy and momentum of the initial reactants are, the energy and momentum of the final products need to match. For alpha and gamma decays, they always did. But for beta decays? Never. Energy was always lost.
The V-shaped track in the center of the image is likely a muon decaying to an electron and two neutrinos. The high-energy track with a kink in it is evidence of a mid-air particle decay. This decay, if the (undetected) neutrino is not included, would violate energy conservation.
In 1930, Wolfgang Pauli proposed a new particle that could solve the problem: the neutrino. This small, neutral particle could carry both energy and momentum, but would be extremely difficult to detect. It wouldn't absorb or emit light, and would only interact with atomic nuclei extremely rarely.
Upon its proposal, rather than confident and elated, Pauli felt ashamed. "I have done a terrible thing, I have postulated a particle that cannot be detected," he declared. But despite his reservations, the theory was vindicated by experiment.
Reactor nuclear experimental RA-6 (Republica Argentina 6), en marcha, showing the characteristic Cherenkov radiation from the faster-than-light-in-water particles emitted. The neutrinos (or more accurately, antineutrinos) first hypothesized by Pauli in 1930 were detected from a similar nuclear reactor in 1956.
or they cause the emission of new particles, which have their own energies and momenta.
Either way, you can build specialized particle detectors around where you expect the neutrinos to interact, and look for them. This was how the first neutrinos were detected: by building particle detectors sensitive to neutrino signatures at the edges of nuclear reactors. If you reconstructed the entire energy of the products, including neutrinos, energy is conserved after all.
Schematic illustration of nuclear beta decay in a massive atomic nucleus. Only if the (missing) neutrino energy and momentum is included can these quantities be conserved.
In theory, neutrinos should be produced wherever nuclear reactions take place: in the Sun, in stars and supernovae, and whenever an incoming high-energy cosmic ray strikes a particle from Earth's atmosphere. By the 1960s, physicists were building neutrino detectors to look for both solar (from the Sun) and atmospheric (from cosmic ray) neutrinos.
A large amount of material, with mass designed to interact with the neutrinos inside of it, would be surrounded by this neutrino detection technology. In order to shield the neutrino detectors from other particles, they were placed far underground: in mines. Only neutrinos should make it into the mines; the other particles should be absorbed by the Earth. By the end of the 1960s, solar and atmospheric neutrinos had both successfully been found.
The particle detection technology that was developed for both neutrino experiments and high-energy accelerators was found to be applicable to another phenomenon: the search for proton decay. While the Standard Model of particle physics predicts that the proton is absolutely stable, in many extensions — such as Grand Unification Theories — the proton can decay into lighter particles.
In theory, whenever a proton does decay, it will emit lower-mass particles at very high speeds. If you can detect the energies and momenta of those fast-moving particles, you can reconstruct what the total energy is, and see if it came from a proton.
High-energy particles can collide with others, producing showers of new particles that can be seen in a detector. By reconstructing the energy, momentum, and other properties of each one, we can determine what initially collided and what was produced in this event.
If protons decay, their lifetime must be extremely long. The Universe itself is 1010 years old, but the proton's lifetime must be much longer. How much longer? The key is to look not at one proton, but at an enormous number. If a proton's lifetime is 1030 years, you can either take a single proton and wait that long (a bad idea), or take 1030 protons and wait 1 year to see if any decay.
A liter of water contains a little over 1025 molecules in it, where each molecule contains two hydrogen atoms: a proton orbited by an electron. If the proton is unstable, a large enough tank of water, with a large set of detectors around it, should allow you to either measure or constrain its stability/instability.
A schematic layout of the KamiokaNDE apparatus from the 1980s. For scale, the tank is approximately 15 meters (50 feet) tall.
In Japan, in 1982, they began constructing a large underground detector in the Kamioka mines. The detector was named KamiokaNDE: Kamioka Nucleon Decay Experiment. It was large enough to hold over 3,000 tons of water, with around a thousand detectors optimized to detect the radiation that fast-moving particles would emit.
By 1987, the detector had been running for years, without a single instance of proton decay. With around 1033 protons in that tank, this null result completely eliminated the most popular model among Grand Unified Theories. The proton, as far as we could tell, doesn't decay. KamiokaNDE's main objective was a failure.
A supernova explosion enriches the surrounding interstellar medium with heavy elements. The outer rings are caused by previous ejecta, long before the final explosion. This explosion also emitted a huge variety of neutrinos, some of which made it all the way to Earth.
But then something unexpected happened. 165,000 years earlier, in a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, a massive star reached the end of its life and exploded in a supernova. On February 23, 1987, that light reached Earth for the first time.
But a few hours before that light arrived, something remarkable happened at KamiokaNDE: a total of 12 neutrinos arrived within a span of about 13 seconds. Two bursts — the first containing 9 neutrinos and the second containing 3 — demonstrated that the nuclear processes that create neutrinos occur in great abundance in supernovae.
Three different detectors observed the neutrinos from SN 1987A, with KamiokaNDE the most robust and successful. The transformation from a nucleon decay experiment to a neutrino detector experiment would pave the way for the developing science of neutrino astronomy.
and that neutrinos aren't slowed down as they travel from the core of the collapsing star to its photospher, the way that light is.
Even today, more than 30 years later, we can examine this supernova remnant and see how it's evolved.
The outward-moving shockwave of material from the 1987 explosion continues to collide with previous ejecta from the formerly massive star, heating and illuminating the material when collisions occur. A wide variety of observatories continue to image the supernova remnant today.
The scientific importance of this result cannot be overstated. It marked the birth of neutrino astronomy, just as the first direct detection of gravitational waves from merging black holes marked the birth of gravitational wave astronomy. It was the birth of multi-messenger astronomy, marking the first time that the same object had been observed in both electromagnetic radiation (light) and via another method (neutrinos).
It showed us the potential of using large, underground tanks to detect cosmic events. And it causes us to hope that, someday, we might make the ultimate observation: an event where light, neutrinos, and gravitational waves all come together to teach us all about the workings of the objects in our Universe.
The ultimate event for multi-messenger astronomy would be a merger of either two white dwarfs or two neutrons stars that was close enough. If such an event occurred in near-enough proximity to Earth, neutrinos, light, and gravitational waves could all be detected.
Most cleverly, it resulted in a renaming of KamiokaNDE. The Kamioka Nucleon Decay Experiment was a total failure, so KamiokaNDE was out. But the spectacular observation of neutrinos from SN 1987A gave rise to a new observatory: KamiokaNDE, the Kamioka Neutrino Detector Experiment! Over the past 30+ years, this has now been upgraded many times, and multiple similar facilities have popped up all over the world.
If a supernova were to go off today, in our own galaxy, we would be treated to upwards of 10,000 neutrinos arriving in our detector. All of them, combined, have further constrained the lifetime of the proton to now be greater than around 1035 years, but that's not why we build them. Whenever a high-energy cataclysm occurs, neutrinos speed through the Universe. With our detectors online, neutrino astronomy is alive, well, and ready for whatever the cosmos sends our way. | 2019-04-19T14:24:57 | https://www.forbes.com/sites/startswithabang/2018/07/10/how-a-failed-nuclear-experiment-accidentally-gave-birth-to-neutrino-astronomy/ |

An average of five lakh Indians die every year, hoping, praying and waiting for organs. Even though they know the shortfall of organs is acute, they have no option. They continue to wait in the dark. If we officially pledge our organs, each of us, on passing, can save up to 8 lives by way of organ donation. Even in death, we can give life to those waiting in the 'dark'. | 2019-04-18T16:29:29 | https://www.ndtv.com/video/special/more-to-give-be-an-organ-donor/be-an-organ-donor-give-life-to-patients-waiting-in-the-dark-463890 |
Taken from Nicaragua News (29 September 2015) under the heading ‘Continuing drought is punctuated by heavy rains and flooding’.
On September 28, government spokeswoman Rosario Murillo reported that 284 families had been affected by the heavy rains that fell over the weekend in the Departments of Madriz, Nueva Segovia, Matagalpa, and Managua. She said that in Managua, four houses were seriously damaged, six others were at risk of collapse and 280 others had been affected in some ways. On Sept. 25, three little girls drowned in a river that overflowed its banks and carried away the pickup truck in which they were riding. On Sept. 24, two people in Chinandega were killed by lightening during a fierce thunder storm which also caused storm sewers to overflow and houses to flood.
At the same time, concern grew about the regions of the country with insufficient rainfall, especially the area known as the Dry Corridor. Government spokeswoman Rosario Murillo said on Sept. 23 that the government in September had distributed more than 30,000 food packets to homes in the region and on Oct. 5 would begin another month’s distribution. Meanwhile, Minister of Industry and Commerce Orlando Solórzano said that the Ministry was considering importing several tons of corn to avoid scarcity and speculation given the loss of a part of the first harvest. He authorized the importation of onions and carrots to satisfy domestic consumption.
Fr. Uriel Vallejos, director of Caritas Nicaragua, asked the government to declare an emergency in the municipalities of the Dry Corridor. He said, “We’re not asking for it for the whole country because it’s a sector of Nicaragua that is suffering so much in this drought.” He added that the drought is affecting 10,000 families or 60,000 people. Vallejos stated that the food that the government is distributing does not reach everyone and he said that he is preparing a letter to President Daniel Ortega in which he notes that people in the drought zone are losing their harvests and having to sell all their animals in order to survive.
Alvaro Fiallos, president of the National Union of Farmers and Ranchers (UNAG), said that in the humid zone of the country farmers have planted for the second harvest of corn and beans but “where it hasn’t rained they haven’t planted for the second harvest and if it doesn’t rain they can’t plant.” Michael Healy of the Union of Agricultural Producers of Nicaragua (UPANIC) said that this week farmers would be meeting with the government to agree on what measures to take. He said that UPANIC was proposing projects in irrigation, water storage, reforestation and biotechnology. He noted that due to the drought harvests of sugar cane and peanuts, both export crops, were down by 20%.
Martin Mowforth (MM): So, a short interview with the members of the CMO, September (11) 2015 focussing specifically on the immediate effects of the drought which is hitting this zone [The departments of León and Chinandega.]. Can you give me your names first, please?
Marina Serrano (MS): Good day, my name is Marina Serrano Tercero. I am a member of the Council of Women of the West of Nicaragua. We would like to tell you that we thank you; in truth, you have been the first that is, to find out about the situation of the drought that we are going through here in the West.
Well, we sow during two periods in the West: that is the first and the latter. That is to say that the drought has affected us throughout, in all directions. Because with the livestock, without rain there is no pasture, true? It dries and we even have limits with the milk, the curd, which is the staple food. And the corn, the beans, we also can’t harvest, we lose them. We have already lost the first (harvest) and we had the hope that as we went through the latter we might find a bit of a solution. However, we are aggrieved because I think as we continue, we aren’t going to get a second (harvest). So, this is something quite worrying, right? This is what we ask, as much to the government as to fellow citizens, that in some way they are able to help us, right? To be able, at least, to support our children. Because they are the ones most affected, the children. And us, the women, right? Because it is, practically the drought which has left us drinking the dryness, as we say in Nicaragua.
MM: Yes, Can you repeat something, the effect of monoculture, of monocultivation? Can you give me your name first, please?
Maria Jose Urbina (MJU): Good day, my name is Maria Jose Urbina, I am from Leon, and in truth one of the consequences that we are living through nowadays is the drought which we have – its effects are really traumatic; with the large expanses which we have as a result of the growth of monoculture here in León and Chinandega; and the large amount that they are sowing. Why? Because many of the small producers don’t own land to be able to work. So it’s easier to rent the land, or sell. So in this way this has helped monoculture to expand. The same as the peanut – the peanut, in spite of the fact that it is a product, it is a product for export, it has always been one of the biggest monoculture crops that we have had. However, this is also seen to be affected by the change of the drought. And all of these monoculture products have made our soil more exhausted. In León they plough large Tolibañeras [areas?], depending on the weather, because we don’t have, the means of how to [her voice fades] to give proper maintenance to what is our environment and agriculture. One of the biggest problems of the drought is that we cannot produce or sow the first crop; now we are in the period of the next season. And right now we are at that period and we cannot sow because we have the drought; it isn’t raining enough. We’ve not been able to sow and what little rain rain has fallen well we haven’t been able to do anything, for small-scale production of the small producers. Also, one of the biggest problems of monoculture is the drought of water – excuse me – the water, the water table of León and Chinandega, [inaudible] have been seen to be affected. Why? Because to irrigate the sugar cane they use huge irrigation systems which has ramifications for the water table. And this makes our water table dry out; we have dry wells, we don’t have rivers, the rivers are dry. So this is one of the great effects that we experience.
The large producers and businesses are growing, the small and medium-sized producers are disappearing every day because of the lack of natural resources and finance which we don’t have for production.
MM: I thank you, a perfect explanation, many thanks.
MM: Can you give me your name please?
Today the current problem is the drought that still affects us. With regard to its growth and value, the value of the shrimp, which is under much stress, is losing worth. I can tell you … [the voice goes and is inaudible.] and its growth falls. And no, it’s profitable, it is more costly. And this is a very hard cost.
Voice of another woman: And the harvest is also falling.
VVS: The harvest falls, it is a result of more risk [a lot of static noise – inaudible voice]. All of the parameters that it should have for us to get a product, but a product which is going to be satisfactory, I can say, for our business that we have …. [inaudible].
MM: Thank you, many thanks for everything. | 2019-04-25T09:42:26 | https://theviolenceofdevelopment.com/council-of-women-of-the-west-of-nicaragua-cmo/ |
Besides having more resources, a good reason why you could get your own web server and use it instead of a shared website hosting plan is that you'll be able to install and run a wide selection of software. With a shared account, you'll be able to use programs, which don't need root access and are not installed server-side, so in the event that you require specific software for your web sites, you can't do the installation on a shared server. This isn't the case with a hosting server of your own where you are able to install whatever you wish. The downside is that you may not have much experience and dealing with your own server is more complicated that managing a shared web hosting account where the service provider handles most things. This is why we offer an extra service for our hosting server plans called Installation & Troubleshooting and you may reap the benefits of it any time that you encounter any issues with the management of your server. | 2019-04-22T22:02:37 | https://agxhost.com/terminology/installation-and-troubleshooting/ |

Motorcycle insurance costs are an important consideration for any bike buyer. That's why MCN is highlighting some of the best cheap-to-insure motorcycles out there. This time it's the Harley-Davidson XR1200X.
The engine is the same at the standard XR1200, but the X-model has vastly improved, multi-adjustable suspension that makes a difference when riding 187kg of American muscle on our roads. It also comes in a menacing black paint scheme with black exhausts. Plus it's only group 11 to insure.
The addition of Showa pig piston forks and piggyback shocks puts the accomplished XR1200 onto another rung of the handling ladder. There’s a lot more feedback from front and rear wheels and the front end feels considerably more settled on the brakes. At the same time it is supple enough to rubbish the Queen’s crumbling highways.
It may be the 'performance' Harley, but just remember H-D's idea of sports bike performance is nothing like a 600-1000cc sports machine produced in the past 20 years. Instead simply enjoy the slow revving nature of the bike with an improved and polished ride quality.

HotShoppy is the advertising-oriented software. They aren't exactly the viruses, but they can cause you disadvantage, and call some major problems HotShoppy can seem a good program that tells you about the most profitable offers on the Net, adds brilliant features to your browser, and performs another things. If adware will function on your machine for 5-7 days or more you will understand, that it is not actually proficient, and will try to eliminate it. But, malware can recover itself past the disposal. What is HotShoppy? How HotShoppy sneaked into your machine? How to get rid of HotShoppy? On this page we'll reply on these questions, and show you the entire info about HotShoppy.
The viruses that show you pop-ups and interfere to use the Internet can be divided on two classes: adware and hijackers. The first type affects the whole PC, putting banners and advertising on each new tab in browser and on the desktop. The hijackers act solely in the browser by manipulating the results of your search queries, showing unreliable results and redirecting you to harmful websites. Both kinds of malware have artful specifications of the advantages and profits to make you believe in their usefulness. You have to remember one thing: the longer these viruses will dwell in your system, the worse will be the state of your workstation. If you'll leave HotShoppy without supervision over time, you will see that your PC is totally clogged by various unwanted, useless or even really dangerous programs. Restarts, fatal errors, spontaneous shutdowns, low speed of response and the poor performance of the PC will appear every day. It will be helpful for the PC, if you delete the adware before the PC will appear in such awful state.
After penetrating the system adware commits some measures, to guard itself against disposal, and get ready for work. The very important thing is to create a task to restore in case of removal, and to get updating from the website of its developers. After that, undesired software starts to vary browser settings. When the home-page and pre-set search engine are modified, user always sees the infected web-page in all browsers and on any tab. After that, dangerous program switches the browser settings, responsible for advertising. The browsers nowadays have a service which allows to hide the intrusive animations, banners, pop-ups and other kinds of hype. Hijacker turns these features off, and you start to see that the amount of advertising in all new tabs is dramatically increased. Apart from the fact that virus makes you to see all the advertisement on the Net, regardless of whether they are good or not, it shows you obviously harmful advertising windows and banners. Sometimes, people just can’t surf the Internet, because when they try to visit some web-site, HotShoppy sends him to another one. So, what is the meaning of this? The meaning of these doing is to coerce the user to click on the links shown by the virus. Those links may lead to the different web-pages. Some of them sell products, some - suggest free content or services. The main thing to realize about these web-pages is: they provide benefit exceptionally to their developers. It is not necessary to specify that any purchase or load on the web-site, shown you by hijacker, can cause bad effects, such as - getting a virus. We believe, you realize that HotShoppy isn't the good program to keep in your system, and it needs to be deleted.
If you examined the previous part, the necessity of HotShoppy uninstall is apparent to you. Don't proceed to the uninstall right now: you should learn any removal technique before you begin. You have two manners whereby any adware may be removed: manual and software way. Any of these ways is worthy and provides effective uninstall of adware. Yet, there are two diversities between them. The removal in manual manner consists of many doings, and between them there are the processes with very important data. These procedures are quite familiar to the practiced user, but you browsed the Web for an answer, so you, likely are not able to delete HotShoppy and you need some help. Below this paragraph you will find the particular instruction, and the video guide on how to delete HotShoppy from your system. If you are worrying about the possibility of failure, or just want to procure the security of your laptop for many months - we suggest you to download the antivirus. Disposal with support of anti-viral tool is much faster than removal in manual mode and excludes the possibility of fault. Antivirus offers the high level of security, and the manual disposal ensures none, because you just uninstall malware, and leave the gates open for all threats. Now, the most admissible special program according to the price/quality ratio is Spyhunter, and we suggest you to try it. This antivirus is respected in many countries, and gives reliable defense. Spyhunter has the viral signature database, which gets updates daily, it does not consume lots of CPU power and doesn't interfere with other anti-viruses.
Choose HotShoppy and press button "Remove from Opera"
Download from a suspicious site. Some websites propagate the hijackers without any precautions. The advantages of such programs are common, they are: the fulfillment of certain tasks in the social networks, the enhancement of Web surfing, showing the newest unpaid media-content such as movies, music and games, providing the information about best deals on the Internet, acting download of all drivers and updates for your gear. All of these functions are already built into the browsers, or is in the list of Windows services, which means - such programs are completely useless, and the web-site that disseminates them is, apparently, malicious.
Download in the package with other tools. If you have ever used the toll-free software, you are familiar with this. You install the software, and during the installation there is a pop-up with the proposal of the installation of the browser, the new add-on for it, anti-viral program, super-useful file manager, and, maybe, some another strange, but very "efficient" tools. There's no need to make a decision because the all fields are already checked, and in most cases, it is very difficult to decline the installation of suspicious software.
In some cases user downloads dangerous software voluntarily. It is highly possible, because when the users see an alluring description of software, they decide that it is highly useful.
The e-mails are also often used, to spread viruses but the advertising programs almost don't use it. We believe that by the time you're reading these words, HotShoppy will be totally removed from your workstation. The reputable anti-viruses understand to detect a virus, but if you prefer the hand disposal - you should know all red flags of infection.
Windows boots extremely slowly. The processes that run at startup are, in most cases, the reason of long boot. On the taskbar you can see all currently launched tools, and decide which are good and which aren't.
Hype is everywhere. If the quantity of advertisement increased dramatically - it is, most likely, hijacker or adware.

Not surprisingly I don’t have any cricket news for you – unless you are interested in scarifying, fertilising, or spiking the pitch, work starts early for next season!
FINGES CROSSED – we are hoping to be able to use the Rawson for our Jumble Sale on Saturday January 18th. This is much earlier than usual as the Hall will not be useable, we assume, by the end of March. However, if it is in the hands of the new owner by January 18th we are hoping we may be allowed to use it for the last time. It is a bit of a gamble but we desperately need the funds. Please put the date in your diary and watch this space!
I am so pleased to be able to tell you that Bolney Cricket Club are now in Div 1 of the Mid Sussex Stoner League!! The excitement went right down to the last league game at Hurstpierpoint with Bolney winning in a nail biting finish. The script couldn’t have been written better for James Flower, it was his last game for the Club before moving to Leeds and he scored 104, with all of his family there to celebrate, both with him and the team. Jack Collins, ever reliable, was the other match winner taking 5 wickets for 49 runs. Many congratulations to all of the players on a brilliant season.
Next year we have applied to the League to enter a 2nd X1 team – if we are accepted this will be our first step to providing a league team for players who don’t play in the first team but would like to play league cricket and also provide a platform for our up and coming juniors. Very exciting!
On September 11th we held a juniors/parents/senior players match for a round robin Kwik cricket game and presentation of awards. Everyone agreed that it was fun and I think the children really enjoyed playing with parents. Thanks must go to the parents who were such good sports and joined in wholeheartedly – I think we had as many Mums as Dads playing!
Our Winter coaching for juniors begins during the first week in October at Downlands Community College, Hassocks from 5.30 – 7.00 p.m. This is a 10 week course and the cost is £35. At the time of writing there is discussion regarding the day, we have booked Fridays, however some people are unable to manage that date owing to other Clubs and so Tuesdays are a possibility. Anyone who would like to take part please look out for the posters stating the day, or contact me for confirmation.
As this is the end of our season we would like to thank everyone who has supported the Club and helped in so many different ways, we hope you will agree that this has been Bolney’s most successful season for many years, here’s to 2014!
So far the Club has enjoyed a very successful season, and at the time of writing, the Saturday League team is 3rd in Division 2, 24 points behind 2nd place Dormansland, who we still have to play. The top two teams gain promotion to Division 1 which would be an amazing achievement to go straight through division 2 at the first attempt. Fingers crossed!
The Sunday team has also enjoyed their friendly games and have travelled to some lovely venues, the last of which was Parham Park, a beautiful setting for a cricket ground. Our first colt has progressed to this team, playing with his Dad, Robert, we were delighted to welcome Oliver Atkins.
After a second successful summer of colts’ sessions the Club is going to hold a Family Evening with an Awards Presentation on Wednesday, 11th September from 5.30 p.m. The coach, Reg, is going to organise a series of small games (culminating in a final) on the outfield that will include colts, parents and Bolney CC senior players. Anyone would be very welcome to come along and enjoy the fun, even if you are not involved with the colts.
In order to build on the summer coaching, and to prepare the children for junior league cricket next year, the Club has organised winter coaching from 4th October until 6th December at Downlands School, 5.30 – 7.p.m. Anyone who would like to participate in this please contact the Club.
After a flying start with two wins we now have to record a tie and a defeat leaving us third in Division 2 – early days yet! Jack Collins took 6 wickets against Smallfield and James Flower and Dean Hamilton scored 70 and 58 respectively against Staplefield.
On Sundays we have been not yet been defeated and have had some very enjoyable ‘friendly’ games. Nick Ridgway scored 60 with Andrew Bennett taking 5 wickets to secure a win against Twineham whilst Steve Bowles retired on a sparkling 104 and Nick Ridgway took 5 wickets against Forest Green.
Our Juniors are as enthusiastic as ever and are progressing well with Reg at the helm. There will be some ‘friendly’ games planned for the end of the course.
We again need to thank Mark Barrow and his team at Bolney Nursery for our lovely hanging baskets again this year – they make the pavilion look so attractive and we are very grateful to Mark for the donation yet again.
At the time of writing we should have played ten games – due to the weather we have played six with one game abandoned at tea. However, the good news is that we have played two league games and won them both leaving us top of Div 2 with maximum 60 points – early days yet though. It is good to see Jack Collins back and taking 5 wickets in each of the league games, ably supported by Matt Stone who took 7 wickets.
In a friendly game against St. James Montefiore Jamie Bowles, aged 14, took 5-13 and I think that takes him into the record book. There is no sentiment for age and his Dad, Rob, had his arm twisted (by Jamie) to buy a jug – first of many!
The Juniors are doing well with a regular attendance of 25+ children attending. They are very enthusiastic and seem to really enjoy the sessions with Reg and the other coaches.
The Club will be hosting a small school’s tournament on 23rd May and Bolney Primary School , where many of our juniors come from, will be taking part. It is an ideal venue with such a large ground and it will be great to see so many children taking playing cricket.
Many thanks to everyone who supported the Jumble Sale, we made £1030 profit – helped by some very generous Club members! Thanks should go to so many people, those who helped collect, those who helped sort, those who helped sell on the day, made cakes, donated jumble and last of all everyone who came along to buy. It was a great response on what was a very wet morning which had us thinking no-one would come.
A big thank you must also go to our Vice Presidents who this year have so far donated £1100! This is fantastic support from such a small community which makes everything we try to do at the Club seem very worthwhile. The Club relies on these two fund raising events to fund all expenses at the beginning of the season. This year we have been able ask Lee and Steve Jones to decorate the exterior of the pavilion and scorebox and so we are now looking very smart for the beginning of our new season in Div 2.
Once again we had received much support for the Junior coaching 12 week course which commences on 27th April run by Reg Perrin, in association with Chance to Shine and Sussex County Cricket Club. These sessions are very popular and Reg makes sure they are fun in a learning environment. If any late comers would like to join the course please contact the Club.
At the time of writing our first two weekend games have been cancelled due to the weather – let’s hope this is not setting the scene for the summer!
The first home game will be on Saturday 13th April – weather permitting! At the beginning of the season the games are all friendlies, the first league game is 11th May against Cuckfield . All of the fixtures are on our lovely website (thank you James Staples) and it would be great to see anyone who would like to wander up to offer their support in exchange for a free cup of tea!
Coaching for juniors will begin on Saturday 27th April 10 – 12 noon for all children who are aged 7 upwards, this is not restricted to primary age and if any children, boys or girls, up to age 14 like to come along they will be very welcome. This will be for a 12 week course which will take us through the summer. The cost will be £48 for the course, for families of more than one child there will be a reduction. The course will be run by Alan Perrin (Reg) who is a Sussex County Cricket Club Coach. Please contact me for application forms as soon as possible, this will give us an idea before 27th of how many children will be taking part.
Reg will be running a session on April 20th from 10 a.m. for anyone who would like to help with the coaching. This would not mean a commitment every week, just whenever people are free, but the more people we have the better for the children. On that morning Reg would present everyone with a copy of his coaching plan for the course and discuss the ideas behind various aspects of it, also he will familiarise helpers with the equipment. You do not require coaching qualifications for this as all helpers would be under the guidance of Reg.
If you feel able to spare an hour or two occasionally please do come along on 20th. If you would like any further information or have any questions please contact us. | 2019-04-22T16:32:05 | http://bolneycricketclub.org.uk/author/secretary/page/3/ |

Mulligan’s Island is an amazing place to host your organization’s next fundraiser. Throughout the year we help development teams raise money for their organizations through our easy to use programs focused on getting your benefactors outside and having fun. These events can either be open to the public or by invitation only.
Mini-Golf Tournament: A local charity invited its members and their friends and families to come to Mulligan’s Island for a fun mini-golf tournament. Just like at a fancy country club, but far less expensive, far more inclusive, and everyone was in and out in 2 hours! The organization charged the players a premium fee, sold course hole and leaderboard sponsorships, and included a small prize back of gifts donated by local companies.
Family Outing: A regional group held its annual fundraising outing at Mulligan’s Island to raise money for its programming. The outing included unlimited mini-golf, batting cages and driving range play, as well as a tournament on our Back Nine executive course. Food was provided by Mulligan’s Island’s excellent catering group and the organizers brought in music. The three hour event was a smash hit and they booked again for the following year!
Golf Ball Drop: In order to create “a splash,” a local charity organized a golf ball drop. They sold thousands of golf balls to interested donors who could win prizes if their ball, dropped from a hovering helicopter, landed closest to the pin in the center of our driving range. Hundreds showed up to watch the helicopter drop the bag of balls and cheer on the winning ball.
If you can dream it, we can help make it happen at Mulligan’s Island. Make your next fundraiser family friendly and outdoors. If you would like more information, or are interested in scheduling a fundraising event, please call the Pro Shop (401) 464-8855 or fill out the event info request form. | 2019-04-26T09:40:20 | https://www.mulligansisland.com/outings/fundraisers/ |
