Air source heat pumps are considered as a lower energy alternative to the conventional boiler systems that are installed in the majority of homes in the UK. They work in much the same way as ground source heat pumps apart from the fact that the heat is extracted from the external air rather than the ground. They fall into two categories, air-to-air or air-to-water, depending on whether either air or water is used in your heat distribution system in your property.
There are many advantages to having an air source heat pump installed. Firstly they reduce the cost of your heating bills from the outset. The air source heat pump does need a little electricity to run but you will still save money on your energy bills. They are much cheaper to run than electric heating and also gas and oil boilers. They also use natural energy so you will be saving the environment, making them environmentally friendly compared to other forms of heating.
All depending on what system you are replacing in the first place, your household could see a reduction of between £130 and £610 on your annual heating bills. A £5000 system installed in your home would pay for itself within nine years.
There is hardly any maintenance required because once they are installed into your home the heat pumps virtually look after themselves. Little or no maintenance is required after installation. You will not have the maintenance costs that come with a standard boiler and the need for an expensive plumber to call out if anything goes wrong.
Air source heat pumps are one of the least expensive forms of renewable energy systems available. On average it is thought that a typical family home can expect to pay around £400 to £500 per year on supplying electricity to the system, less than half what a standard electricity bill to a traditional heating system is, around £1200.

Being in this industry requires an entrepreneurial spirit, flexibility and a drive to achieve. Personal trainers aren't just selling a service; they're selling themselves as the purveyors of that service. This can lead to the perception that success in gaining clients equates with success as a person. And since there is often an undeniable relationship between ego and income, when the scale tips toward equating income with being "better," the unfortunate result is that some personal trainers become quite destructive. Ego can be a dangerous aspect of personal training and far too often has been the downfall of good trainers.
In the beginning, novice trainers are full of energy, excitement, determination and drive—these are the typical characteristics they bring to a facility when they are fresh from school or certification. And when they arrive, these goal-oriented, humble and approachable trainers are the new flavor of the month. Typically they pick up clients with ease as their energy draws people in and business begins to blossom. They accumulate income as the message spreads through word of mouth, and soon they are struggling to control the waiting list. This is the point where it can all go belly-up if ego takes over and sensibility and humility go out the window!
While it is all well and good to accept that income follows people with a lot of self-confidence, the question becomes, how do you keep the ego in check? Here are seven tried and tested ideas to keep your team solid, stable and, most important, grounded!
It is important for any trainer to set short-, medium- and long-term outcome goals. These goals can then be broken down into day-to-day action steps (process goals) to ensure that the trainer stays motivated and focused. By achieving process goals, the trainer will attain her outcome goals. Trainers who have no goals or focus, who "fly by the seat of their pants," run the risk of being swept up in the excitement of the initial big bang and then flaming out quickly. Being inexperienced and unstructured is a recipe for a short career.
Mentoring a new trainer will help an experienced trainer stay grounded and connected with the basics—the initial systems and structures, the recruitment process for new clients and the uncertainty that comes with this starting phase. By revisiting the process through the eyes of an apprentice, the mentoring trainer will stay in touch with the hard work and drive that it took to become successful.
Personal trainers who give back to the facility where they work tend to have a vested interest in the organization; they feel connected to it. By taking on responsibility, they turn their focus outward rather than on the self. For trainers who have no connection to the "bricks and mortar," looking outside themselves can be harder. Get staff involved through marketing and promotions. Change floor layout, train novice staff, present workshops to other members and clients, and maintain a fairly open and transparent approach to the way the facility is run.
Solid, accurate records of income, client numbers and statistics help track increases and common mistakes. I have found that as trainers become more focused on details and documentation, they become more business oriented. There is something humbling about seeing numbers (money, clients, time, etc.). This exercise can help trainers see the value of having controls in place, for both business and attitude.
A trainer-director meeting for its own sake is absolutely pointless, but a structured, goal-oriented, supportive forum to discuss issues and concerns, go over client scenarios and bounce around marketing ideas is critical. The exchange also establishes a solid connection between director and trainer, and with open communication channels, the director can more easily address any concerns relating to a trainer's business attitude.
As trainers start out, they work hard to establish a real connection with their clients. Thanks to friendly smiles and good eye contact, each individual has a specific relationship with the trainer. If, over time, smiles decrease and eye contact diminishes to the point where the trainer is more focused on generating business and driving revenue, then the client may notice the change, possibly without knowing exactly what is happening or why it's occurring.
When the trainer loses a couple of clients because of this detachment, she may realize that her focus strayed from the clients, but the mistake has been made; those particular relationships are now gone and the trainer may need to expend a lot of energy combating a reputation of being arrogant and just "in it for the money." Maintaining client-trainer relationships requires far less energy than creating new ones to take their place, especially when the trainer's reputation is at stake.
Personal trainers have a lot of influence in the club or studio, and clients identify their trainers as knowledgeable and reliable sources of fitness information. While there are radical variances in the competency levels and qualifications of trainers, there is no denying that they are looked up to as authorities. Trainers need to recognize their role and the responsibilities that come with it. While trainers may not know every member in the facility, the members certainly know them. Once trainers understand the elevated profile they hold and work toward elevating their profession, the ego will become secondary to the goal-oriented and focused attitude expected of a fitness leader.

Q: How to send a Javacript variable to an ASP.NET controller using Ajax? So I have created a method on another page of my web app that uses $.Ajax in the Javascript section of my page to retrieve data being returned from a function in my ASP.NET controller for that page/view, and now I am trying to create a new section that will take a parameter being given to the ASP.NET controller from the Javascript script and it will return some data based on the parameter being given.
Here is my Ajax query so far:
function testFunction(){
    let selectedDateJS = getSelectedDate()
    let customGraphData = $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: '@Url.Action("GetCustomGraphData", "Graph")',

        success: console.log("success: "+success),
    })
}

And then here is my controller function in ASP.NET:
public async Task<JsonResult> GetCustomGraphData(string selectedDate)
{
    DateTime selectedDateDT = Convert.ToDateTime(selectedDate);
    // if selectedDate is NOT a working day:
    if (!bh.IsWorkingDay(selectedDateDT)){
        // Do something if the date being selected on the form IS NOT a working day.
        return Json(null);
    }
    else// else, if it IS a working day :
    {
        CustomGraphVM selectedDatedata = await GetCustomData(selectedDateDT);
        return Json(selectedDatedata);
    }

}

I tried using a data: 'myDate', addition to the Ajax query under the url part but it didn't send anything (null was returned on the string selectedDate parameter of my ASP.NET controller function, but it was returned as null.
Also if it makes it easier, I am parsing a date to the controller from Ajax, and the date is in the format 'yyyy-mm-dd'.
The reason why I am doing this in $.Ajax and with Javascript as opposed to doing it with the ASP.NET is because I am trying to make a dynamic update on the view - and this worked great previously with my GET request that just returned a fixed value from the controller.

A: If you are passing data via AJAX then you want to match the name you gave your parameter.
function testFunction(){

    let selectedDateJS = getSelectedDate();
    let customGraphData = $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: '@Url.Action("GetCustomGraphData", "Graph")',
        data: {
           selectedDate: selectedDateJs
        }
        success: console.log("success: "+success),
    });
}

Remembering Daniel 'DanYo' Hoyer, Phoenix Hip-Hop Artist and Podcaster
Four Live and Virtual Concerts to Check Out This Weekend
Jimmy Webb, Musical Instrument Museum, 2/1/13
Glenn BurnSilver
Glenn BurnSilver | February 2, 2013 | 9:30am
Jimmy Webb @ Musical Instrument Museum|2/1/13
It's always interesting hearing an alternate version of a popular song. That's one of the appeals of live music. But that version is especially worthwhile when it's the original version by the original artist.
Such is the case at a Jimmy Webb concert. A prolific songwriter, Webb amassed an array of hits in the 1960s and 1970s--all performed by other artists. Tonight at the Musical Instrument Museum Webb demonstrated how those hit songs were intended to sound before each recording artist put his or her own touch on it--many earning Grammy Awards.
-Songwriter Jimmy Webb Scored Big Hits -- For Glen Campbell, That Is
Perhaps best known among the Webb-song hit makers is Phoenix's Glen Campbell, and Webb praised him several times during the evening.
"How lucky I was to have him interpret my music," he said. Three songs Campbell scored hits with were performed--each to rousing applause--including "Galveston," "Wichita Lineman," and "By The Time I Get To Phoenix." Under Webb's deft touch at the piano these songs were "transformed" from the radio-friendly versions to the emotional powerhouses they were originally imagined as.
"Galveston" ebbed and flowed like the bay's tides, capturing all the original longing of the displaced Vietnam vet central to the story, while "Wichita Lineman" carried that everyday housewife longing to new levels of desperation and desire, the tinkling keyboards sounding like a lonesome telegraph line. "By The Time I Ger to Phoenix," carried all the heartache of separation, right down to the minor key phone ringing that went forever unanswered.
Between songs Webb entertained the sold out crowd with assorted tales of career development, unlikely success, debauchery, meeting then-President Bill Clinton, and other oddities that cemented relationships with many of the artists he worked with and led to in some cases song formation. Webb, for example, filled in for Johnny Cash at a Farm Aid concert, singing Cash's part of "Highwayman," this performance's opening number. Webb explained hanging out and while the state song, "Oklahoma Nights" with Vince Gill, a fellow Okie--"It's OK to say Okie now," Webb assured the crowd, "but if you said it to my dad, he'd have hit you." He followed this "that strange Jimmy Webb song," "Up, Up and Away," a Top 10 hit for the Fifth Dimension. Webb put a lot of effort into the song, pounding hard on the piano, but it was needed to push the "regularly" up-tempo soul hit along. Webb also worked his way through Art Garfunkel's hit "All I Know," Frank Sinatra's "Didn't We," as well a show closing "MacArthur Park."
For many of the songs there was almost a show tune or piano lounge quality far removed from the pop hits heard back in the day on the radio. But there was a little too much talk. While the anecdotes with delivered in humorous fashion, some went only longer than the songs he was introducing. A few more songs--Webb has some many to choose from in his 50-year career--would have been nice.
But, it was also nice to get inside the songwriting process and creative inspiration behind these iconic songs--you just can't make that kind of stuff up. It's a worthwhile trade-off when one considers few in recorded history have been able to make up songs like Webb--the proof is on the radio.
Critic's Notebook: Last Night: Jimmy Webb, prolific hit songwriter
Personal bias: Many of his hit songs were in regular rotation as a kid. "Wichita Lineman" was the first song I learned on the guitar.
The crowd: With the exception of some teens/20s dragged undoubtedly by parents, I was the youngest person in attendance.
Random notebook dump: He's the consummate showman in love with the limelight--but he can tell a good tale.
Overheard: On the way out the door: "With all those stories about drinking and drunkenness, it's a good thing he stopped or he'd be dead for sure."

We've had performance hybrid Mercedes coupes, convertibles, saloons and estates - here's the SUV!
Did you see Dan's drive of Mercedes-AMG's new E53 estate last weekend? If not, then go and check it out, then come back here (except you won't, because fast estates are better than SUVs, so once you've seen that why would you want this?) Anyway, Merc has put the powertrain from that car in this: the new GLE 53.
It's the same twin-turbo 3.0-litre inline-six as Dan sampled, putting out the same 435hp and 383lb ft to all four wheels via the same nine-speed automatic transmission. The unit's party piece is once again its EQ Boost 48V onboard electrical system. Fitted between the engine and transmission, it not only powers an electric compressor which works to eliminate turbo lag and improve efficiency, but also provides a range of mild hybrid functions. These include a power boost of 16 kW and 185lb ft of torque, energy recovery, 'gliding mode' and the GLE's imperceptible start/stop function.
In this installation the set-up results in 0-62mph in 5.3 seconds and an electronically limited speed of 155mph. Helping keep all that performance in check are a whole host of systems including AMG Active Ride Control for the suspension, AMG Dynamic Select drive programmes, Sports Steering and high-performance brakes. There's also a selectable AMG Performance Exhaust system to "make the driving experience even more emotional."
To set it apart from less sporting models visually, the GLE 53 gets an AMG-specific radiator grille with 15 vertical strips, making it "immediately obvious that it is part of the AMG family." There are also 20-inch light alloy wheels - with seven alternatives up to 22-inches available - as well as a chrome-plated front splitter, diffuser strip and tailpipes. Should that all sound a little blingy, the optional AMG Night Package undoes it all, making everything - including the mirror covers, window frames and roof railing - black.
As for why such a thing needs to exist at all, Tobias Moers, Chief Executive of Mercedes-AMG, explained: "As the inventors of the performance SUV, it is important to us to continue to be at the top with the new generation of the GLE when it comes to innovations, driving dynamics, individuality and design. The first step here is the new Mercedes-AMG GLE 53 4MATIC+, with which we offer our customers more power than the predecessor model as well as our fully variable all-wheel technology. Not least of all its striking radiator grill shows our new GLE 53 as a fully-fledged member of the AMG family." Jolly good. Next.
So how much more does it cost than the E53 estate? Call me old fashioned but I'd rather have the E class all day long.
Would the AMG suspension negate the E Active body control from the regular GLE?
It looks like pretty coo tech, and as far as SUV's go I think the GLE is attractive.
Definitely agree on that ..... better dynamics and better looking (objective obvs), but contrary to the flow of the market right now where everyone seems to want these massive SUV's... Only downside of the wagon seems to be that MBUK don't offer rear seat entertainment for them!


Officials from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice were presented with what had to be one of the most surreal predicaments of each of their professional careers when they came into the possession of nearly $18,000,000 worth of cocaine on Friday, September 21. What was most shocking about the experience is how it came to unfold - with the donation of a shipment of bananas that had been used to move the drugs.
In the body of a Facebook post that the TDCJ put up on its page hours after the ordeal went down, it was explained that two sergeants from the department's Scott Unit had been sent to retrieve a couple of pallets filled with the fruit, upon it being offered to them from Ports of America in Freeport. According to the official who fielded the call, the port was looking to get rid of the shipment because its contents had already begun to over-ripen.
When the sergeants arrived they were led to the two pallets and the 45 boxes stacked on top of them. However, before taking off, one of the sergeants noticed how much heavier a particular box was in comparison to the others, he saw reason to investigate. Sure enough, upon digging to the bottom of the first box he re-opened, and then moving on to a second and third - the sergeant realized that the bananas had been resting over bundles of the white powdery stimulant.
All-in-all there were reportedly 540 packages bearing $17,820,000 on the pallets. The finding led to the TDCJ involving the Drug Enforcement Administration and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection in the investigation into where the narcotics could have come from.

What's obvious about free will?
Let's roll back the age-old debate on whether we have free will and start again, this time knowing we evolved.
First, we have to believe we've conscious free will. When we're asked to make a considered choice or decision we become aware we're free to choose between options that appear in consciousness. If we reject all such options as if we had no free will we can't give a considered answer. And if we want a considered response from someone else most of us want that person to arrive at it through conscious mental operations. If they say, "That isn't my conscious response, just a knee-jerk reaction," we may say, "No, I want your considered opinion"—we assume they can manage the conscious mental operations of coming up with options, weighing those options, arriving at a conclusion, and expressing that conclusion in words. All philosophizing aside, the simple truth is we can't function together without assuming we all have free will. Believing we don't isn't a practical option.
It's also obvious that evolution is capable of "dealing in" the kind of intelligence, consciousness, creativity and free will we as a species possess. Non-living matter doesn't display those capabilities. And merely being alive can't account for them; other living creatures don't seem to have them to the degree we do. The platform required for the exercise of those capabilities took hundreds of millions of years to develop. They evolved. Evolution can "deal in" conscious mental operations.
The best grounds for discussing free will therefore lie not in logic, nor in material science, but in figuring out what it means that evolution can "deal in" mental operations.
Why are our conscious mental capabilities so little dealt with in thinking about evolution? Does Positivism still proscribe reference to volition of any kind? If so, our evolutionary theories will remain divorced from common sense.


Cute and cozy hotel in perfect location!
My colleagues and I decided to stay an extra night in Madrid,after a week of work. We wanted to be more central than our previous hotel (where we worked) - so decided on the Bergantin. What an amazing little gem. Gorgeous cobbled street, beautiful staircase leading up to the 4th floor where the hostel is. Perfectly clean and comfortable little rooms. The lady at reception upon checkin was so lovely - she understood English, which helped a GREAT DEAL! She really accommodated us when we left our bags on the day of check-out to go sightsee - as we were in and out to get warmer clothes. Stunning hostess. Upon departure later the day, there was a young gentleman, who was not as friendly and more interested in his cell phone. We asked if there was a bathroom to use before we go to the airport, as we've been on the bus the whole day. Unfortunately he did not seem bothered to help. BUT that said, the rest of the staff were great. A little noisy with pub goers late at night and early morning, but we were too tired to care about that too much. I would ABSOLUTELY go back here again.

The eccentric What The Film Festival returns with 7 hour movie marathon
June 21, 2017 Sonya Davidson Arts, Film
Film lovers of the obscure, the outliers, and the outsiders films should take note of this upcoming one-day only Festival. On Saturday, June 24th, the Royal Cinema (608 College Street) will host a 7-hour marathon of short and feature films that goes beyond traditional and conventional genres.
Peter Kuplowsky, the new 'Midnight Madness' programmer for the Toronto International Film Festival spearheads the programming for this 3rd edition of the WHAT THE FILM FESTIVAL produced with The Royal Cinema's Laser Blast Film Society.
Pushing outside the boundaries, the film festival will include the following feature films:
BLOODY MUSCLE BODY BUILDER IN HELL: Directed by Shinichi Fukazawa (Japan), Canadian Premiere.
This Japanese remake of The Evil Dead took 20 years to recreate. First (and only) time writer/director/actor/editor/cinematographer/special effects creator Shinichi Fukazawa's deliriously named film is a winking homage to Sam Raimi's THE EVIL DEAD, transplanting the story of hapless folks getting besieged by anarchic evil spirits from a cabin in the woods to a traditional and claustrophobic Japanese home. Unfortunately for the vengeful ghosts, one of the hapless ain't so helpless, as they happen to be the titular BODY BUILDER (portrayed by the director himself), and have brought along some barbells to this spook-a-blast brawl. Shot on grimy Super 8 in 1995, but only completed and released in 2014, Fukazawa impressively distills his love supernatural splatter to a lean 62 minutes, while colliding a familiar barrage of low-fi gore, stop-motion monsters, and verbatim Evil Dead one-liners without ever feeling like a rehash. In era of remakes and reboots, it is the rare cover that remixes its source into something fresh and surprising; a treasure of a cult film that desperately deserves an audience so that it can swallow their souls.
SYLVIO: Directed by Kentucker Audley, Albert Birney (USA) Canadian Premiere.
A downtrodden debt collector named Sylvio Bernardi becomes an overnight celebrity after he trips and inadvertently smashes up the set of a public-access television show in the middle of a broadcast to the delight of its audience. Recognizing the audience's hunger to see more comical wanton destruction, the show's producer and host (Kentucker Audley) invites him to be a regular guest. Sylvio accepts the opportunity, but only in the hope that this platform will permit him to expose the world to his true passion: performing micro-narratives with a hand-puppet of a balding middle-aged man named Herbert Herpels. Oh, and Sylvio is a gorilla that wears sunglasses; did I not mention that? Based on a popular VINE channel that chronicled the banal struggle of a working-class primate across 814 six-second clips, SYLVIO conjures up an absurd, but legitimately heartwarming (and coherent) satire and idiosyncratic character study that remarkably transcends its humble social media origins.
SHE'S ALLERGIC TO CATS: Directed by Michael Reich (USA), Toronto Premiere.
When a dog groomer (Mike Pinkey) who aspires to be recognized in Hollywood for his avant-garde video art asks out the girl of his dreams (Sonja Kinski, granddaughter of Klaus) and she accepts, he panics at the thought of inviting her over to his rat infested apartment. His anxiety leads him to illicitly procure a cat to help rid his apartment of the vermin… but oh god… the title of this movie… THIS WILL NOT END WELL! Funded entirely by working as a body double for one of the DAFT PUNK robots, Michael Reich's incredible debut feature is a Linklater meet-cute soaked in an experimental VHS aesthetic that gradually escalates into a full-on Lynchian fever dream that dares to call out the disturbing nature of William Huyck's HOWARD THE DARK and make a DVD copy of Frank Marshall's CONGO look devastatingly sexy.
Short Films include:
THE CURE: Directed by Mike Olenik (USA), Canadian Premiere
A hypnotic sci-fi soap opera that collides the idiosyncratic private lives of both humans and aliens in a parade of sublime slow-zooms and kitschy feline totems.
CYBERTRONIC WARRIOR: Directed by Steven Kostanski (Canada), World Premiere
Director Steven Kostanski (The Void, Manborg) has partnered up with Transformers rockstars The Cybertronic Spree to lend his creative vision to their first original anthem, "Cybertronic Warrior." Taking inspiration from Japanese mecha anime, TV and video games such as Robotech, The Super Sentai series, and Cybernator, this video follows the band through a dangerous space fortress filled with evil cybernetic life forms hell-bent on their destruction. They'll have to load their courage files to make it through. But will they all survive?
LA TRISTESSE DURERA TOUJOURS: Directed by Vinny De Ghoulie, (USA), Canadian Premiere
Vinny De Ghoulie returns to WHAT THE FILM FEST with what may very well be his 8 ½ – a maddening deconstruction of his own process culled from the remnants of a feature film he mounted, but failed to to realize. As amusingly bemusing as it is devastating.
For ticket information visit WHAT THE FILM FESTIVAL website. Limited number of wristband tickets for the entire marathon ($25) includes entry to the post-festival party and festival poster. Individual tickets for each feature $10.

Overview of CHM's Collection
Culture & Heritage Museums is a family of museums in York County, South Carolina. Though there are four different CHM sites, the collection for all sites is managed by the Collections & Archives Staff whose offices are located in the Historical Center of York County in York. CHM sites have been open to the public as early as 1950 and have a vast collection ranging in material and subject matter.
The Anthropology collection, also referred to as the Ethnographic collection, started in the 1950s along with the natural history collection. It was a collection of Catawba pottery but grew to also include African Ethnographic material. Over the years, the collecting range grew to also include materials from all over the world, such as South America, Asia, and Australia. Some items in the collection include masks, primitive weapons, wall hangings, jewelry, ceremonial costumes, baskets, vessels, furniture, tools, and musical instruments.
The archaeology collection consists of artifacts found at Historic Brattonsville during various archaeological projects over the years. As items are unearthed at all CHM sites due to restoration or construction projects, they are cataloged and added to the collection. Items in the collection include bricks, projectile points, bullet shells and casings, earthenware fragments, metal fragments, building fragments, and flatware.
The Historical Center of York County was established in 1989 to serve as the repository for York County records. Along with the county records, a major donation of family genealogies compiled by Joseph E. Hart Jr helped establish the Archives Collection. Since its creation, the collection has grown to also include family papers, historic photographs, local business records, local newspaper publications, rare books, and church records. All archival materials, along with a large collection of library books, are available for public access in the non-lending public Search Room. The Archives Department also maintains education and local surname files to assist with research requests that are received via phone, email, or walk-in visit.
In 2006, the Southern Revolutionary War Institute (SRWI) was added as a special archival collection to house and make available the research of Revolutionary War Historian Bobby Gilmer Moss. The Moss Collection includes Patriot and Loyalist military records of those who fought in the Southern Campaign. Since its creation, the collection has grown to also include the Lyman C. Draper Manuscript Collection, the Cornwallis Papers, and the published papers of Henry Laurens and Nathanael Greene. All collections, as well as a number of published books about the Revolutionary War, are available for public use in the non-lending public search room in the SRWI.
Aside from a couple random pieces of artwork, the art collection started in 1982 with the purchase of two ceramic jugs from the 1982 South Carolina Crafters Guild Third Annual Juried Exhibition and a donation of twenty dog prints by J. Lee Settlemyre. The collection continued to grow through small donations until the early 2000s when artwork was acquired from a wide variety of sources, including a number of local art shows.
In the late 1970s, artist and illustrator Vernon Grant loaned his artwork, magazine covers, advertisements, children's books, sketches, video recordings, and papers to the Museum of York County where it was used in a number of exhibits. The artist passed away in Rock Hill in 1990, with his wife passing away in 2001. In 2006, two of the artist's children donated the large collection to CHM on behalf of their late father. The Vernon Grant Collection makes up about 85% of art collection, making CHM the premier destination to see Grant's artwork. In 2010, the Main Street Children's Museum opened, turning the illustrator's artwork into life-size, hands-on exhibits for young children to explore through creative play.
Prior to 1997, the Museum of York County, Historic Brattonsville, and the Historical Center of York County were three different organizations that had very different collections. In 1997, all three sites merged creating the Culture & Heritage Museums, thus bringing all three collections to form one large collection of historical artifacts. Items vary in age, dating as far back as the Revolutionary War to more modern items made at the Celriver Plant in the early 2000s. More recently, a large collection of historical items were transferred from the Museum of Western York County due to their dissolution and closure in late 2021. Items in the CHM's collection include multiple wagons and buggies, a 1921 Anderson Motor Co. Model C car, antique furniture, medical tools, home goods, quilts, coverlets, clothing and accessories, and farm equipment, among other items.
The Natural History collection started in the 1950s with the creation of the Stans African Collection, consisting of African taxidermy mounts donated, collected or funded by Maurice Stans (1908-1998), as well as his family and friends. At one point in time, the Stans African Collection was considered to be the largest collection of African hooved animals in the world that included a number of record class specimens. With a more focused mission, the collection has grown to include a number of Carolina Piedmont specimens, whether the species is extinct, endangered, or still abundant in the wild. The collection consists of a wide range of specimen types including taxidermy mounts, study skins, fluid preserved specimens, skeletal remains, rocks and minerals, fossils, and casts.

Today Rome burned. You have seen the videos, the photos, the comments. Many students were peacefully protesting for their future. And there were protesters who had nothing to do with the student crowd. Like the hundreds of men clad in black, coordinated in their actions. This guy here broke down a signalling post and used it like a leverage to open up the iron grate of the building.
Tear gas, cars in flames, police vans exploding. A vista of Rome that you won't find in tourist guides. The Grand Tour of agents provocateurs, with clear orders: discredit peaceful protests. To torch a police van you need skills and some practice, possibly every Sunday, during football matches.
Ministers asked for "repression". These are the same people who gave us Bolzaneto, G8 in Genoa. To tar everyone with the same brush: mission accomplished.
You know how it ended, the government survived the no-confidence vote thanks to those MPs who got their mortgage estinguished or a brand new apartment, courtesy of the Prime Minister. As Der Spiegel writes tonight, it's the triumph of operetta. Grotesque.
Colin Crouch quotes Italy as being the forerunner of post-democracy. Maybe he's wrong, after all. Here we're talking about tribal pre-democracy.
In the meanwhile the country crumbles down. GDP is in comatose state as tax receipts are, partly for lack of growth, partly for world-class free-riding. The government survived the no-confidence vote, Italy is in a deep self-confidence crisis: economic, social, moral. Its youth, its civil society, and even more its opposition are confused and stoned. This is Berlusconi's nutrient broth.

Justice select committee unable to recommend Criminal Cases Review Bill be passed
The Justice select committee has released its report on the Criminal Cases Review Commission Bill and is unable to recommend that it be passed. It has recommended some amendments to the bill.
The committee received 33 submissions and heard oral evidence from8 submitters.
The bill would establish an independent Criminal Cases Review Commission to review suspected miscarriages of justice. It could review convictions and sentences and could refer them to the appeal courts if it would be in the interests of justice to do so.
As introduced the bill states that the appointment of a commissioner familiar with te ao Māori would be desirable. The committee recommends amending clause 40 to a requirement that at least one commissioner is familiar with te ao Māori.
The committee recommends amending clause 11 to expressly recognise that the commission's primary function would include investigation in addition to its review function.
Clause 12(1) should be amended so that the Commission is empowered to initiate an inquiry into general matters that have arisen in the course of performing any of its functions or duties, rather than just matters that have arisen while the Commissioner was reviewing a conviction or sentence.
Clause 15(3) should be amended to make it clear that the commission's procedures are to be consistent with the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi.
Clause 20 should be amended to make it clear that courts should treat a referral from the Commission as a first appeal against the conviction or sentence.
The bill as introduced does not explicitly allow the commission to disclose information in order to prevent or lessen a threat to public health and safety. However, this type of disclosure would be permitted under the Privacy Act 1993, Information Privacy Principle 11(f). New paragraph (g) should be inserted into clause 35(2) to allow disclosure if it would prevent or lessen a serious threat (as defined in section 2(1) of the Privacy Act) to public health or safety or an individual's life or health.
The committee proposes several changes to the bill in relation to privileged or confidential information including providing separately for claims of confidentiality and privilege buy removing reference to confidentiality from clause 37 and inserting new clauses 37C to 37G to provide for confidential communications and information.
As introduced the bill exempts the commission for certain requirement in the Crown Entities Act 2004, for example having to prepare a statement of intent (clause 43) and a statement of performance (clause 44). The committee believes that these exemptions could limit Parliament's ability to adequately monitor the commission's performance and so recommends removing clauses 43 and 44 and inserting a new clause 43.
The National Party does not support the bill and its members believe that the Government should consider reforming existing structures of criminal justice first.

Whether your medium is cloth, leather, or metal, you are the one people turn to for stylish clothing and hearty armor. Your creative craftiness of these materials can also be shown off on you too, should one of these outfits (or one you create on your own from these ideas ^_^) suit your style.
However, while other professions(like cooking and engineering) have a wide variety of off-hand frills and/or helms and gadgets to make whatever outfit you are wearing instantly related to that profession, having a tailoring/leather-working/blacksmithing type of outfit is rather hard to make obvious to others due to the lack of such accessories. And, even though most of the outfits I created could double for everyday general wear, posing next to profession objects around town does make them different for professional wear ^_^ .
When I was wondering what to do for tailoring outfits, I looked at what the tailoring NPCs around the various towns (Horde and Alliance) wore. For the most part, their outfits are kept simple and are in plain colors. One must also stay within the realm of cloth and light leather armor to be true to what tailors actually craft; using just tailored made armor is also a great place to start from.
The Canvas Set is a perfect example of what I feel is more "tailoring" like. The style and colors are simple, and the outfit just says "honest town-folk." I added the Heavy Linen Gloves for a nice, all-brown fingerless glove (and because I could not get a hold of the Canvas Gloves ^.^). I also used the Padded Boots instead of the Canvas Shoes because the Padded Boots look more like shoes and socks than actual boots, or just plain brown shoes (like the Canvas Shoes). These can be bought from several vendors, and are a great green and brown match, should you choose to use the Canvas Set pieces. Other sets that look like this are the Brocade Set, the Cross-Stitched Set, and the vendor-bought Heavy Weave Set.
The Conjurer's Bracers are what gives the corresponding vest its nice, darker green cuffs. However, the Conjurer's Vest looks just as lovely on its own, especially being paired up with the golden brown colors of the Gossamer pieces. The Stonemason Trousers can be switched for any other desired brown, or green, pants, as could the Walking Boots be substituted for some other footwear. The Walking Boots, however, have a nice old-English feel to them, and they add more character to the outfit.
This outfit is a variation of the one before it. You won't have to worry about finding bracers to match, as the darker cuffs on the sleeves are a part of the tunic itself. I choose not to use any boots/shoes that went over the cuff of the pants (as it looks kind of weird on female characters) and used the shoe/knee high sock combination of the Pilgrim's Boots. Other shoes for this type of look can be made with the Brewfest Slippers or the Padded Boots.
While any other black or gray pants would go with this outfit (like the Tuxedo Pants), the embroidery on the Haliscan Pantaloons adds simple fanciness to the outfit. I used the Embroidered Gloves and Embroidered Boots to add a splash of color to the outfit while still keeping the gold highlights.
This outfit is similar to what Keelen Sheets is wearing, who is also pictured in the screen shot above (just swap the Golden Filigreed Doublet for any white shirt). For an alternative to the Starfire pieces that are still purple, try the High Councillor's Tunic and Pants.
I used the Highborne pieces to continue the dark purple color of the vest throughout the rest of the outfit, the Wizard's Belt adding an elegant transition between both halves. Chest-pieces like the Dreamweave Vest, in my opinion, could match to some tailors' persona, as it includes different types of fabric all in one.
The same style can be found in a full robe.
Like the Dreamweave Vest, the Arcanoweave Robe includes a beautiful patterned fabrics of flowers off-set by the shiny, jewel like fabric along the chest and in the skirt; the hem of the skirt is fur-looking. It obviously took an expert tailor to masterfully bring all those elements together. I added Kirina's Amber Filigreed Doublet to bring out the amber tones in the "jeweled fabric", and the turquoise Arachnidian Bracelets matches the robe, as well. Other robes in this style are the Embrace of the Wind Serpent and the Robes of Volatile Power – both of which can have accessories to match.
A tailoring outfit with the Tears of Heaven off-hand frill.
Tailors need dyes to color their fabrics, so, I figured using a flask-like off-hand, like the Tears of Heaven, could represent the dye used. I know this seems like a stretch ^_^, but if this is something that interests you and you can't get a hold of the off-hand I used, other alternatives could be: Flask of Forest Mojo or the Nightglow Conconction (both Horde quest rewards), or even the Tear of Grief (Alliance quest reward).
Much like the tailoring outfits, it is best to stay within the realm of what leather-workers craft; so, leather and some mail armor items. I prefer these outfits to be in all leather…much more rugged that way, in my opinion. However, if including some mail items interests you, check out the Blacksmith section of this article for some ideas to go by – there are outfits there that consist of both mail and leather armor pieces.
This lovely leather ensemble can act as the basis for a simple tribal leather-worker, primarily due to the armbands of the vest. Because leather-working in real life includes many harsh chemicals, I choose the sturdy, thick leather look of the Metalworking Gloves to protect the crafter; the same idea applies to the boots.
The Skinning Knife is a pertinent off-hand for any of these outfits, but is more suited for a skinner's outfit. Oh well…have to work with what you got ^_^.
The same outfit only with the addition of the Red Defias Mask.
As I stated before, with all the nasty chemicals and fumes from this profession, one could even add a face mask to this outfit to protect from the unintentional inhalation of the fumes. The Red Defias Mask is a rogue only mask; however, there are plenty more helms like this one to consider. For other red alternatives look for the Bloodwoven Mask or the Outlander's Facewrap.
If you just want something quick and simple, do not forget all the wonderful vendor-bought ensembles, like the Cured Leather Set. Any of the pieces in this set can be mixed and matched with other vendor bought armor, or dropped armor, for different looks.
The Warped Leather Set is an effective crafter outfit that has just a hint of flare. Blue not your color? Try a full Bard's Set (red/pink) or the Bandit Set (black/brown) for the same style.
But, if you like to mix-and-match outfits, you can not go wrong with random leather pieces that somehow pull together into a great outfit. The heavier leather chest-piece, the Scouting Tunic is off-set by the lighter Inscribed Leather Pants. And, while the belt, gloves, and boots do no share a common name, they do appear to share the same leather consistency, and also the fashionable buckle.
Another nice set for higher level players is the Arctic Set, as seen pictured above with Kirina, Braeg Stoutbeard.
Like Kamalia, I too love the Bonechewer Set; however, I do not have too many pieces of it. No worries! Pieces from the Embroidered Set look great with it as well – the light plum color blending beautifully with the red/brown of the Bonechewer pieces. I see this outfit as a more "girly leather-working" ensemble, but I'm sure anyone will look good in it.
Actually, I guess wearing a leather kilt would be more for a girly leather-worker ^_^ . If you like this look, but hate the rarity of the Earthborn Kilt, try the Orc/Tauren shaman starter kilt – the Primitive Kilt is leather, as well! I love Kirina's Toughened Leather Armor, and the gold coloring of this leather chest-piece goes great with belts like the Gossamer Belt. I used the same ol' black gloves and boots to bring out the black stitching in the belt.
Like the previous profession outfits this section, any blacksmith outfit that consists of mail and/or plate armor is right on target. However, I threw in a couple of leather/cloth pieces, because I'm sure no one smelts and 'smiths in full metal armor…that would probably get pretty hot ^_^. So, I used the mail/plate armor items as more as accents, like a belt or boots, just for the blacksmith to show off what they can make.
This outfit is perfect for those that are not able to wear mail/plate armor, but are a blacksmith by trade (LoL, oxymoron?). And, while it would make a great leather-working outfit, as well, what really sets it a part and makes it a blacksmithing outfit, in my opinion, is the Torturing Poker.
A close-up on the Torturing Poker.
This dagger is easily farmed from Interrogator Vishas in Scarlet Monastery. This NPC is close to the entrance of the Graveyard Wing, so, that makes it so much better if you do not get the dagger on your first run (It took me 2 runs to get this). Other notable "smelting sticks" are the Flarethorn, Sporeling's Firestick, Goblin Igniter (neutral quest reward), Rod of Molten Fire, and the Medicine Stick (neutral quest reward).
This outfit is similar to the previous one, however, it includes some metal armor (the Field Plate Leggings). Both of these outfit styles can be obtained using other armor pieces (i.e. the Shadowcraft Belt looks like every other belt in-game). This outfit also includes another pertinent blacksmith accessory, the Blacksmith Hammer, and is a good addition to, or substitution for, weapons like the Rod of Molten Fire.
This style is also found on the pictured Orc ladies hammering around the forge with Merlaina. For vendor bought chest-pieces with the same style as the Grizzly Jerkin (on females), try the Battered Leather Harness (dark plum/pink), or the Buckled Harness (dark violet).
The brown/black color of the Bandit Jerkin goes great with the ruddy brown color of the Nocturnal Leggings. I added Merlaina's Rose Colored engineering goggles in the outfit for extra protection – most of the blacksmith NPCs do not wear any eye/face protection (I guess they all must be bad-asses ^_^). However, I'm sure with all the molten metal flying around while hammering out armor and weapons, something is bound to fly into your face and arms. While there is a wide variety of engineering goggles to consider, there are not too many non-engineer ones. As you may know from reading any of my other articles, the Ruby Shades (not vendor sold anymore, but still pops up on the auction houses), the Blix's Eyesight Enhancing Romance Goggles, and the Spectrecles, are really the only "available" non engineering goggle options.
This outfit is more "village" like, and, I picture this more for Human/Dwarf/Gnome characters. The vendor bought Polished Scale pieces match perfectly with the Field Plate pieces. I also like the way the gloves are designed – they have a metal plate on the outside of the hand/wrist, but are leather on the inside; this makes them easy and safe to work with, but also shoes off that metal accent.
The same outfit only with the substitution of the Field Plate Leggings for the Raptorhide Legguards.
This same look can be gotten with less metal armor, as well. The Raptorhide Legguards (neutral quest reward), are leather pants that look like they are made of mail. While I am sure that there are other leather pants that appear the same way, these are the only ones I know of that share the same design/color scheme as the Field Plate Leggings.
This last outfit is more feminine, in my opinion, but can be easily adapted to fit for both genders.
The leather Imposing Vest blends in with the red portion on the mail Raider's Legguards, giving the illusion that it is one piece divided by the correlating Raider's Belt. The Amber Filigreed Doublet compliments the red and orange within the other pieces of the outfit, while also adding protection for the crafter's arms.
Hopefully, this article gave you some ideas on how to put together a "crafter" outfit (or outfits ^_^). I only used the clothing items I already had on, or were saving for, Kirina and Merlaina, so, I am sure that there are plenty of other combinations to be had with the tons of other gear in-game; it's all about what you like for your character.


I would LOVE to be able to move the aggregate window, either to resize it or to move it to a different monitor. Sometimes I want to be able to look to the remaining work and having to close and open the aggregate (or using the back and forward button) its time consuming.
Yeah, I agree with Cristiano!! It would be great!!
This was implemented and released on OutSystems 10!


These are hand crocheted 100% organic cotton, eco-friendly, reusable face wipes, made from super soft 100% cotton yarn they are perfect for face and eye make up removal.
These wipes are 100% waste free as they can be reused over and over, simply pop them in the wash (best in a laundry bag with similar colours at 40 degrees) and they're ready to use again!
Be kind to the environment, yourself and your purse! Colours may vary.
See my other listing if you would like to add a bar of soap to your wipes!

Q: httpChannel.setRequestHeader with httpChannel.redirectTo I'm having trouble with my Firefox-Addon.
With my extension, I'd like to redirect requests that match a certain pattern. So far, the redirection is working fine with

httpChannel.redirectTo()

Now I'd like to add / modify the request headers for the redirection (as explained here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Setting_HTTP_request_headers )
My code so far:
console.log("start");
const {Cu,Ci} = require('chrome');
Cu.import('resource://gre/modules/Services.jsm');
var httpRequestObserver =
{
    observe: function(subject, topic, data)
    {
        var httpChannel, requestURL;
        if (topic == "http-on-modify-request") {
            httpChannel = subject.QueryInterface(Ci.nsIHttpChannel);
            requestURL = httpChannel.URI.spec;
            if (requestURL.indexOf('www.3und80.de') > -1) {

                    console.log("match url");
                    newURL = 'http://www.genialschenken.de/';

/*This has no effect*/
httpChannel.setRequestHeader("X-Hello", "World", false);

                    console.log("redirecting...");
                    httpChannel.redirectTo(Services.io.newURI(newURL, null, null));
            }
        return;
        }
    }
};

Services.obs.addObserver(httpRequestObserver, "http-on-modify-request", false);

Sadly, the line

httpChannel.setRequestHeader("X-Hello", "World", false);

has no effect.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Q: Why is this SSL certificate not installed correctly? I have two domain hosted on Google App Engine which use the same SSL certificate:

*

*https://test.moveapp.co/

*https://pay.moveapp.co/
They both show the SSL certificate as working in the browsers I tested (Chrome, Safari, Firefox). However this Symantec tools claims that the "pay.moveapp.co" certificate is not installed correctly:
https://cryptoreport.websecurity.symantec.com/checker/
What is going on? It doesn't give any helpful information. It says an intermediate certificate is missing, but this is false, and it is the same certificate on both domains.

A: Both certificates are installed correctly.
Never used Symantec, but they have problems with their own SSL authority so I would never relie to them.
Easiest standalone check would be with curl (yes, it is very very strict and picky).
Another way is to use https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html
Hope that helps.

A: If you use appengine apps, then a good way to enable SSL is to use the builtin Letsencrypt certificates. You only need to verify your domain with Google webmaster tools and then enabling SSL is completely painless.


It's Sunday, the fifth day of February 2017. There's no National holiday, but family and friends all over the country prepare to spend the afternoon together for a common purpose – a winner-take-all game between the best two teams the National Football League (NFL) has to offer. After fifty-one years the Super Bowl has become a staple point of American tradition. Not only are people across the country tuning into the game, the Super Bowl has become a global event. With such a large audience comes the opportunity for revenue, and when money is involved, there's always legal issues implicated. Because this is a simple blog, I will only be able to give a brief overview of the many legal issues that arise due to the Super Bowl.
The product of a legal instrument, the first Super Bowl was played on January 15th, 1967. As a term of the merger agreement between the AFC and NFC specified, the two were to play a championship game the following year. At first, the Super Bowl was not the successful event it is today and, in fact, it didn't even sell out. Today, the Super Bowl is the most watched spectacle on television every year, and all-in-all over $15.5 billion dollars will be spent in relation to the big game.
So, where's the money coming from?
Well, there are the ads. Super Bowl advertisements are one of the defining characteristics of Super Bowl Sunday. Businesses do not hesitate to pay the enormous expense of airing a 30-second ad slot that will be seen by the largest audience television has to offer. For example, this year the average cost to purchase a 30-second time slot was around $5 million dollars. And no, that's not a typo. Incredibly, Super Bowl LI was the first time in 51 years that the big game ran into overtime. Overtime meant that Fox, the network that aired the Super Bowl this year, was able to make their profits go into overdrive. In addition to fans scoring some extra game-time, the network was able to score bonus profits. All-in-all Fox generated an incredible $509.6 million during the game.
How about attending the Big game? Just for a ticket, you better be ready to fork up at least $2,700. The price for a ticket on the 50-yard line is a whopping $9,000. With such high prices, there's a reason third-party companies are flocking to be the one that re-sell these tickets. For example, StubHub is a company that allows ticket owners to sell their tickets via an online portal. However, with any online transaction comes the chance for abuse, and many issues may be implicated.
The money isn't limited to businesses affiliated with the NFL. You can bet on the NFL always getting their "fair" share of the money. That being said, the players and coaches certainly have an incentive to play in the Super Bowl. The NFL has highly complex contracts that are filled with incentives, options, and other performance bonuses. For example, each player on the winning team will take home $107,000, and each loser will still receive $53,000.
Let's not forget Houston, Texas, the city that hosted Super Bowl LI. Houston had the potential to have over $500 million flow through its' economy. The money comes primarily from tourism revenue in the form of lodging, special events, and other entertainment. Regardless of the final number, the prospect of a city cashing in on the event draws cities through the nation to bid for the Super Bowl every year.
Any large spectacle, like the Super Bowl, draws the potential for illegal enterprises. The big culprit is illegal gambling. The American Gambling Association (AGA) estimated that approximately $4.5 billion dollars of illegal bets would be placed on the Big game. Gambling is generally illegal in the United States due to The Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act that was enacted in 1992. Shockingly, in Nevada, where gambling is legal, it is estimated that only $132 million was bet legally.
The Super Bowl is a fantastic spectacle and perhaps the best example of how sports, law, and business can be efficiently integrated to maximize all parties' profitability. It will be exciting to see how the Super Bowl landscape evolves in the upcoming years.
 Super Bowl LI featured a showdown between the New England Patriots of the American Football Conference (AFC) and the Atlanta Falcons of the National Football Conference (NFC).
