The term "holiday" is nowadays synonymous with the word "vacation." Many people look forward to their days off in order to do what they truly enjoy, especially with the stressful lives that many workers face in the modern world. However, what if someone were to take a day off in order to explore the beauty of Rome, fall in love almost instantaneously, and have the time of one's life just because of the yearning to escape the monotony associated with being sheltered? That complex question resulted in an Oscar-winning screenplay that forms the plot of what is now considered one of the greatest romantic comedies ever made. Feel free to join Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck as they take viewers on an adventurous holiday around one of the most beautiful cities in the world!
This is the film that earned Audrey Hepburn her only Oscar. Hepburn rose to fame almost instantly even though this was her first major leading role. Gregory Peck also delivers a charming performance as Joe Bradley nearly a decade before winning the Oscar for playing Atticus Finch in the celebrated classic To Kill a Mockingbird (1962). The acting is superb, the costumes are gorgeous, and the film almost won the "Best Picture" Oscar.
Roman Holiday is no ordinary romantic comedy. It was the first American motion picture filmed in Italy without the usage of Hollywood back-lots. It was also the film that earned Dalton Trumbo his first Oscar even though he had to deal with the controversial blacklisting that occurred in the 1950s that directly affected Hollywood screenwriters. The American Film Institute also acknowledged this film in June 2008 as one of the "Top 10 Romantic Comedies of All Time" (specifically at #4). Indeed, Roman Holiday continues to delight audiences while also introducing them to one of the most legendary films ever produced in the history of cinema.
Roman Holiday is indeed one of the most iconic romantic comedies ever filmed. Its influence on pop culture is so indelible that there was even an episode of Disney Channel's The Suite Life of Zack and Cody entitled "Boston Holiday," which was basically a parody of this beloved screen gem. Therefore, if someone were on a holiday, they might as well just call it a "Roman Holiday" (pun intended) by watching this film. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the splendor of Rome from the comfort of your home. Have fun!

PURPOSE: To perform baseline T(2) mapping of the hips of healthy volunteers, focusing on topographic variation, because no detailed study has involved hips. T(2) mapping is a quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that evaluates cartilage matrix components. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Hips of 12 healthy adults (six men and six women; mean age = 29.5 +/- 4.9 years) were studied with a 3.0-Tesla MRI system. T(2) measurement in the oblique-coronal plane used a multi-spin-echo (MSE) sequence. Femoral cartilage was divided into 12 radial sections; acetabular cartilage was divided into six radial sections, and each section was divided into two layers representing the superficial and deep halves of the cartilage. T(2) of these sections and layers were measured. RESULTS: Femoral cartilage T(2) was the shortest (-20 degrees to 20 degrees and -10 degrees to 10 degrees , superficial and deep layers), with an increase near the magic angle (54.7 degrees ). Acetabular cartilage T(2) in both layers was shorter in the periphery than the other parts, especially at 20 degrees to 30 degrees . There were no significant differences in T(2) between right and left hips or between men and women. CONCLUSION: Topographic variation exists in hip cartilage T(2) in young, healthy adults. These findings should be taken into account when T(2) mapping is applied to patients with degenerative cartilage. J. Magn. Reson. Imaging 2007;26:165-171. (c) 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

by Scott O'Connell
WORCESTER – Assumption College on Friday broke ground on a new health sciences building, the campus' second new building in three years and a reflection of the school's recent expansion toward STEM-based programming.
The 41,000-square-foot facility, which will be built behind the campus' Emmanuel d'Alzon Library, is expected to cost $13 million and open in the fall of 2020. The entire project, which will also include improvements to a nearby parking garage, will cost around $22 million, according to college officials.

Jeffrey I. Snyder
Partner, Assistant General Counsel
jsnyder@bilzin.com
Area of Focus: Business Finance & Restructuring
"[He] is one of those rare attorneys who brings the perspective of the law along with good common sense and business judgment," -Chambers USA
GET TO KNOW Jeff
Jeffrey's deep knowledge of bankruptcy and debtor credit laws and previous work as a financial analyst bring a wealth of business and legal insight to his practice. He guides landlords, secured and unsecured creditors, bankruptcy trustees, receivers, debtors, asset purchasers and others through a broad range of bankruptcy matters, receivership proceedings and out-of-court restructuring and workouts.
In 2019, Jeffrey was appointed to the Local Rules Advisory Committee established by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida.
Jeffrey also enjoys appellate work, handling chiefly bankruptcy appeals in federal court. He argued in front of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit on behalf of a secured creditor in the Sagamore Hotel bankruptcy case. Jeffrey secured a decisive victory with a reversal in the case.
How do you work collaboratively with other practices in the Firm?
A significant amount of what happens in a bankruptcy is driven by non-bankruptcy law. We are dealing with real businesses, with complex issues. On any one matter I may involve colleagues from Real Estate to Corporate to Litigation — these are colleagues who I know personally and who sit right down the hall. I am not turning to someone from New York who I met at a retreat three years ago. My partners are really my partners.
Are there any lessons from your legal career that influence your work today?
Over the years there have been some cases that surprised me in what we were able to accomplish — cases that I thought were difficult to impossible. But we were able to work something tremendous out, and those cases ended up being valuable experiences for me. I have learned through those experiences, particularly workouts, that even the toughest matter can be solved by pursuing different angles and working creatively and doggedly to get to an outcome.
For which appellate work are you most proud?
I handled major aspects of the Sagamore Hotel bankruptcy. We represented a secured creditor and litigated a contested bankruptcy, a contested confirmation, and side litigation over lender liability issues. The case went through bankruptcy court and was appealed at the federal district court and in the Eleventh Circuit, where we secured a reversal in favor of our client. I primarily wrote the briefs and argued the appeal at the Eleventh Circuit. We turned the tide of the case, and eventually secured a favorable settlement.

FRANCE: Islamophobic Witch Hunt: 34 organisations call on EU leaders to take a stand
Freedom of association, Freedom of expression, Initiatives and campaigns
FEMYSO, Islamophobia FR
Call published by the European Network Against Racism (ENAR) on 30/11/2021
France is engaging in a full-blown Islamophobic Witch Hunt by targeting racialised communities and organisations in Europe. Over the past months, the French government has launched countless administrative procedures to shut down Muslim-led organisations, mosques, schools, and even Muslim-owned "snack bars". Despite a complete lack of evidence or judicial process, it did so by claiming "Muslim Brotherhood" affiliations.
Following France's latest attacks against FEMYSO, ENAR and 33 civil society organisations are expressing solidarity with the youth-led Muslim civil rights organisation. The attacks began shortly after FEMYSO met with Helena Dalli, the EU Commissioner for Equality, to discuss the challenges experienced by young Muslims in Europe. With the French presidency in Europe looming, civil society organisations fear that this oppressive trend poses a threat to Europe's values and unity if left unchecked.
Karen Taylor, Chair of the ENAR Board, said: "The actions carried out by the French government are deeply concerning. Not only do they contradict the EU's values of equality, diversity, democracy, and disregard the rule of law, but they are also deeply divisive and dangerous for society."
In practice, France's strategy consists of silencing the voices that criticise its discriminatory policies, using the excuse of possible incitement to hatred as a basis to portray racialised organisations as threats to the Republic, rather than the state's victims. In the case of Muslims, France also uses conspiracy theories to justify its anti-democratic actions without proof.
France is using Muslim Brotherhood conspiracy theories as its boogeyman to attack organisations that defend human rights. On the one hand, Muslims, who are already heavily discriminated in France, are being further demonised; on the other hand, those that organise to denounce this are targeted. Organisations such as Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and Ligue des Droits de l'Homme have already called out France's discriminatory policies on multiple occasions.
Two weeks ago, France pushed its weight against the Council of Europe for the publication of a campaign focused on discrimination against Muslim women wearing headscarves. French politicians are now applying the same pressure on the European Commission.
Karen Taylor concluded: "Europe's civic space is shrinking quickly and this pattern should be concerning to all civil society. In France, organisations focused on Islamophobia were the first to be targeted, but we are already seeing other organisations suffering similar attacks in their efforts to address structural racism. If we allow this pattern to continue, the French state may eventually decide that the denunciation of all forms of discrimination, such as police brutality or xenophobia, is dangerous. We are calling on European Leaders to recognise this urgent threat and firmly condemn this approach now before it's too late."

My Boyfriend's Back: Blu-ray Vs. TNT TV Version
TV Version
In April 15, 2000 at 1:15 am, on TNT Monstervision, an alternate version was aired. This version had contained some deleted and alternate scenes. These deleted scenes had expanded on the story line and explained the backstory of a character. None of the deleted scenes would appear on the DVD or Blu-ray. This version dubs over the swear words and would even contain re-shot scenes for just one swear word. The quality is also much lower when compared to the Blu-ray.
Difference Report:
The TNT TV version contains a deleted scene with Eddie saying goodbye to Johnny. He said he wished it was him, but then later backtracks and says he was just kidding.
TNT TV Version:
The TNT TV version contains an alternate and shorter scene of Johnny and Eddie talking about how Missy isn't interested that Johnny is alive again.
The TNT TV version contains a deleted scene. Missy's father asks who it is, and Missy lies that it's one of her friends. Missy tells Johnny to leave, as her father will go berserk if she learns that she is dating a zombie. She kisses him and leaves. Johnny puts his ear in his pocket and drives off. The TNT TV version also shortens the shot of Johnny staring at Missy as she leaves his car.
The TNT TV version contains an extended scene, with Johnny apologizing to Dr. Bronson for knocking on his door so late. Dr. Bronson asks what's his problem.
The TNT TV version contains an alternate and longer scene. Johnny visits Murray at the cemetery. Murray scolds him for coming back to him. Johnny explains to Murray that his ear had fallen off on his date with Missy. Murray tells him not to worry about it, as he will dead eventually. Johnny and Murray end up getting into an argument about whether Johnny is dead or undead. Murray then scolds him about knowing everything and Johnny apologizes. Murray tells him to sit down. He explains that there are three levels of being dead, which are dead, undead, and really dead. He says that once you die, you can be undead. Once you're dead, you become really dead. Once you're really dead, there's no revival. Murray then offers Johnny to stay with him for his last day. Johnny declines, and Murray thinks it's for Missy. Johnny then says that he had became undead because of her. Murray tells him that if he wants to live long enough for the prom, he should talk to someone. The Blu-ray has Johnny gluing his ear back on. He asks Dr. Bronson what to do with the rest of his decaying body.
The TNT TV version removes some footage of Maggie warning Johnny that he will die tomorrow if he doesn't start cannibalization. Johnny asks how she knows, and she replies that she just knows.
The TNT TV version contains a longer shot of Brenda Bodine telling viewers to check in for a special report about zombies.
The TNT TV version contains two additional shots, one of Big Chuck warning Johnny that he'll do the same thing he did to the other zombie and one of Johnny asking who the other zombie is.
The TNT TV version contains a deleted scene. Johnny and Eddie pay a visit to Maggie's house. Maggie explains that her husband had also came back from the dead. A mob had lit Maggie's husband on fire after he ate twelve people. Maggie tries to warn Johnny to leave the town immediately. Johnny says that he's in love. Maggie warns him again, saying that he'll die a painful death. Maggie asks Johnny if he's really in love with Missy. Johnny replies yes, even to die twice for her. Maggie asks if Missy loves him back. Eddie replies that she did until he ate Chuck. Johnny asks Maggie how to make Missy love him like how Maggie loved her husband even though he ate all her friends. Maggie tells her the story of when she and her husband first moved into the town. She and her husband had only started with two bricks and one cup of cement. They were homeless for the next eight months, but they were still happy. They were able to save enough money for a doorknob. Seventeen years later, they were finally finished building the house. Eddie interprets the story as love takes years to build. Maggie clarifies that the house wasn't completely finished. There was a window ledge that wasn't complete. When her husband died, he came back to her house and finished the ledge. He then proceeded to eat her twelve friends and then would be killed by the mob. Johnny thinks she's trying to convince him to go to Missy's house and build a ledge near her window. Maggie says that's not the point. She says that women love a man who can complete tasks. She advises him to tell Missy that he came back the dead just to be with her.
The TNT TV version contains an alternate and longer scene with Shelly suggesting to Dr. Bronson the idea of eternal youth. The swearing is completely removed and re-filmed in the TNT TV version.
The TNT TV version shortens a shot of Johnny saying "No this is it".
The TNT TV version contains a deleted scene. Missy tells her father that she will have to kill her in order to kill him. Johnny gets up and asks for one favor. Missy's father tells him to shut up. Missy tells him to go ahead and Johnny attempts to say something. However, he is unable to say anything, as his vocal cords have decayed. Missy tells him to whisper it, but he can not. He attempts to explain what he wants through charades. The crowd is able to guess that he wants three words. Johnny points to his nose and his ears, which he rips off. He then taps his knees. The crowd guesses random words. The crowd finally is able to guess the word "please". Johnny begins to act out the second word. The crowd continues to guess, with Murray guessing "please, knees, nose". Missy corrects him and says that the second word is "one". Johnny begins to act out the last word, with the crowd continuing to guess wrong. Missy finally understands the last word, which is "dance". Missy realizes that Johnny only wants one dance. Johnny collapses again and Missy goes by his side. Missy's father orders to get away from Johnny.
The TNT TV version contains an extended scene. Johnny wonders why the robber didn't knock over the coffee. The judge acknowledges that error and asks Johnny if he may continue. He then says that what was supposed to happen was the robber was going to slip on the coffee and get knocked out by Eddie. There was supposed to be no loss of life in the incident.
The TNT TV version contains three additional shots, one of Johnny walking away from the court and two of the judge ordering the next person and banging his gavel.

Q: ListView rows getting clipped Newbie Alert
I'm populating my ListView with rows that are using ConstraintLayout. I thought that the row heights would be adjusted automatically based on the content, however that doesn't seem to be happening. Should it?
My Fragment code:

</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

Output:

I tried to setMinimumHeight on the inflated view, but is that in SP or pixels or points or what? I tried values of 35 and 105, but it didn't change anything.
How do I get my ListView rows to size properly?

A: Like the iOS constraint system, you want constraints from the top of the container view down to the bottom. None of the objects in the ConstraintLayout have constraints to the top or bottom of the parent.
Add a constraint from the top TextView to the parent and a constraint from the bottom TextView to the parent and this will let android size the row properly.

Many neuropsychological theories agree that the brain maintains a relatively persistent representation of one's own body, as indicated by vivid "phantom" experiences. It remains unclear how the loss of sensory and motor information contributes to the presence of this representation. Here, we focus on new empirical and theoretical evidence of phantom sensations following damage to or an anesthetic block of the brachial plexus. We suggest a crucial role of this structure in understanding the interaction between peripheral and central mechanisms in health and in pathology. Studies of brachial plexus function have shed new light on how neuroplasticity enables "somatotopic interferences," including pain and body awareness. Understanding the relations among clinical disorders, their neural substrate, and behavioral outcomes may enhance methods of sensory rehabilitation for phantom limbs.

Kenny Miller: No reason Rangers can't win Cup with current form
Morpeth denied by late Stalybridge equaliser
Mixed emotions for Newcastle United's Siem de Jong
SIEM de Jong left the field with mixed emotions after making a goalscoring comeback for Newcastle United.
Monday, 27th April 2015, 1:16 pm
Newcastle's Ayoze Perez celebrates his goal
De Jong – who had surgery on a collapsed lung in February – netted late in Saturday's 3-2 defeat to Swansea City.
While the 26-year-old was relieved to finally be back on the pitch, he was bitterly disappointed at a result which left the club teetering above the Premier League's relegation zone.
De Jong – whose last competitive goal had come for former club Ajax against Cambuur in March last year – will top up his fitness tomorrow with a run-out either for the club's Under-21s away to Derby County or in a behind-closed-doors fixture.
But he will NOT be fit enough to start away to Leicester City on Saturday.
United head coach Carver said: "I'm not sure he's ready to start, but he could get longer than 20 (minutes) at Leicester."
De Jong – who had a long spell out earlier in the campaign with a torn thigh muscle – has labelled this season as the "worst" of his career because of his injuries.
But he could yet make an important contribution to a team which has struggled for goals in the absence of the suspended Papiss Demba Cisse.
De Jong volley a cross from Jack Colback past Lukasz Fabianski two miuntes from time.
"I was glad that I put it in," he said. "I'm glad to be back on the pitch. Hopefully, next time it'll be for the points."
Reflecting on his comeback, de Jong added: "The most important thing was to get points, and we didn't.
"I feel sad about that, but a little bit happy about being back on the pitch. It's not about me, it's about the team."
Carver felt de Jong's comeback was the main positive to come out of the the club's seventh successive defeat.
"The shining light was getting him back on the pitch," he said. "You saw the quality he has got."

October 2014 | Just Mi!
First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Halloween baby...my little sister!
Now, it's time for FabHER Friday!!!
I hope everyone has a safe weekend! Enjoy yourselves and wrap up...the chill is coming!
What to put in your gym bag in preparation for the gym!
A few weeks ago Femme Fitale Fit Club hosted this link up. I thought this was a great topic...so I wanted to talk about what's in my gym bag!
(1) I use this notepad to write down the exercises I do each time I work out. I have every workout I've done since June 2nd (2014). Writing down the exercises allows me to track things like how much weight I'm lifting; how many reps I'm doing with the weight I'm lifting; and it allows me to plan future workouts. I was working out last year before I moved but the notepad I was using definitely got lost in the shuffle. Here's an old post though!
(2) When I first started working out, I was playing around with the weights and unintentionally hurt my left knee. Something's out of whack and now and when I lift anything over about 90 pounds I have to wear the wrap around my left knee. When I lift even heavier weights (anything over about 150), I wear the wraps around both knees, for safety measures. The wraps take some pressure and stress of the weights off the tissues around the knees. You kind of have to get a feel for the wraps and learning when it's time for you to wrap. You don't want to wrap too early because you're trying to strengthen your knees/legs. They can't get stronger if you're preventing them from feeling the weight! It's still best to err on the side of caution!
(4) This is something that I've had to invest in as I started lifting heavier weights. I don't know if it's the position I hold the bar or if my back/shoulders are just not built for that type of weight, but I needed something to take the pressure off my shoulders. After squatting, my shoulders would be the sorest things on my body, not my legs. Before the pad I was putting a towel between the bar and my back, but that wasn't stable enough. So I bought the bar pad, which takes some of that pressure off and has helped me lift more weights! Safety is always key!!
~I always bring water and I some times bring a gatorade. Gotta stay hydrated!
~When I go to an actual gym, I some times use my iPod. When I'm at home, I use my computer and a Bose speaker. The acoustics in the garage are great. Some use music to get pumped up, but I actually prefer the quiet. I'm a concentrator, so I talk to myself as I'm working out. I don't rely on the music to get my hype. Some times the music distracts me...because I'm too busy dancing...lol!
~I some times drink a pre-workout, but I don't get the "desired effect" from it, so I rarely use it.
I know it sounds like I'm tugging a lot to and from the gym, but I like to be prepared. It also helps that I work out at home the majority of the time, so things are easily accessible.
What are some things you carry in your bag that aren't in mine?!
Hi guys!! FabHER Friday is here again!!!
We're here to connect ladies in the blogosphere to one another. We all know how fantastic it is find great blogs that you can add to your list, so why not link up?! You can share posts of your choosing, old or new. Pick a fave, share, and hop around to the other links listed!
I look forward to reading everyone's post and I hope you all have a beautiful weekend!
How has my workout changed?
I was reading some of my posts and thinking to myself, "Mionna! Why are you so wordy?!" So, this post won't be long at all!
As you can see, I've been doing some work. I haven't been to a gym in a while, but I'm still making my squat rack work for me.
I know my next couple of updates will be a little light because the holidays are coming up and I'll be doing a lot of traveling. This is the time of year when I wouldn't be surprised if most people's workouts get a little light when they should be the heaviest! LOL. However, I'm going to keep myself motivated!!
What are some things you do to keep yourself motivated?!
Since cutting out some of the unhealthy foods I eat, I've fallen into a rut of cooking the same foods often. A friend inspired me to spice up my regular old spaghetti recipe...so that's exactly what I did!
1. Sauté the diced onions in a little olive oil. I like to season my onions with a bit of salt, pepper, and onion powder for some extra flavor.
2. Add the sausage and allow the sausage the onions to cook together.
3. Before removing that mixture from the pot, add the carrots and allow them all to cook for a few minutes.
4. Remove the mixture from the pot, brown, and drain the ground beef. I seasoned the beef with salt and pepper only. I didn't want to add different seasonings since I was using so many new ingredients.
5. Combine the sausage/onion/carrot mix with the ground beef and add as much or as little spaghetti sauce as you'd like. I used half of a 45 oz. jar.
6. Add sugar and stir. I usually don't use sugar, but my mom does so I knew this would be a small but perfect addition.
7. Simmer for about 20 minutes.
9. Add spinach and parmesan then stir. The cheese is supposed to make the sauce creamy and rich.
10. Add about 3 tbsp. of pasta water into the spaghetti sauce. This is supposed to bring the flavors together and improve the texture of the sauce.
10. Add butter before serving the sauce. This is supposed to make the sauce rich and smooth...a tip from the professionals!
You want to talk about some good spaghetti?! THIS was some good spaghetti. Introducing a few ingredients to the pot turned boring spaghetti into Amazing Spaghetti! The portion sizes of this recipe are little on the small side. I usually cook a larger pot of spaghetti, but I didn't think I would want to eat spaghetti all week. I cut the portion sizes in half but I was still able to get 4 significantly sized portions out of this. Next time I'm definitely making a bigger pot! Also, if you want to make a homemade spaghetti sauce, these instructions would work well for that!
Well hello to you all!! You know what today is right?! FabHER Friday!!!

We've got all weekend! I hope you all have a great one!
Let's start this post off by giving me a round of applause for making it this far. If you remember this post, then you understand where I'm coming from.
Here's the real. I paid for this hair and it's on my head, so I have to make sure it's maintained properly. I questioned myself about what I wanted to do with it. My thought was, let's get past my birthday without looking crazy first, then I'll make some decisions. Goal Accomplished!
I don't put products in the hair because everyone (knowledgeable about sew-ins) says products will weigh it down. The stylist said natural oil from my hair would eventually spread throughout the sew-in and I'm guessing that's what's happened because it seems the hair has become "weighed down".

I'm currently watching these Nats!!
I unintentionally tasked my boyfriend with doing something special for my birthday weekend. I hadn't planned anything and the only goal I had was to get 'dressed up'!
Friday night we enjoyed a comedy show at DC Improv. There was a comedic MC, two comedians and the feature comedian Bobby Lee. I don't know if you guys used to watch MADtv, but he was one of the cast members (during the Key & Peele era). All of the comedians had enough joke in them to make me laugh, so I was pleased with the night.
Each morning included breakfast. If you know me, you know I love breakfast food at any time of the day!! Most days my body can't always make it up in time to enjoy some of the breakfast places I like but I guess that's why birthdays are special. I found my signature breakfast sandwich for when I'm on the go...and of course, I had my fave...IHOP!!
The weather during the work week before my birthday had been drab. You could tell autumn was nearing by the consecutive days of 70-something degree weather. I'm a Fall baby, so this is prime time for me but I was a bit worried about what Saturday would look like. Thank goodness God saw fit to kiss my cheeks with beautiful sunshine!!
I won't share all the details of my beautiful birthday but my boyfriend is an amazing planner. Saturday included some shopping at Tanger Outlets but the highlight was some of our night time plans. I finally got to ride the new ferris wheel at the National Harbor!! We also stayed at the harbor for dinner at Bond 45, an Italian steakhouse. After having one of their steaks, our standards for steak (and asparagus and spinach) have been set pretty high! Their cookies need a little work...lol...but over all the food amazing!
My family and friends showered me with love and well wishes. I'm so appreciative for being a thought on people's minds...especially on a Saturday. I've always felt like my birthday was one of the best days of my year and people who help make it even more special have a special spot in my life for that year!! It kind of helps me put into perspective my relationships with people but not to the point where you have no place if I didn't hear from you. I know things come up and people get busy, etc. etc. etc...but I appreciate being thought of! Who doesn't?! So thank you for all the Google+ messages, emails, text messages, FB messages, IG comments, twitter shoutouts, and anything else I might have forgotten!! You all are the BEST!!
Also a great big muah to my babe!!
P.S. Don't forget to come back tomorrow!!

Water barriers are an extremely important part of home waterproofing. They will keep moisture out of your home, thus improving your home's energy efficiency. Here are some tips on how you can install one in your home.
It really depends on the budget you have for the project. You can buy a cheaper vapor barrier, that it's made from plain plastic, or you can choose a high quality barrier that will not let water pass through it and will also protect your home from mold and mildew growth.
The best place to install the vapor barrier is under the foundation. But this can be done only when the house is built, or after, but with great costs.
Other places where a vapor barrier can be installed is in attics and crawlspaces. Humidity can built up easily in these places and they are a great home for mold and mildew.
Before installing the vapor barrier, you should clean the surface and most of all dry it. This will help the vapor barrier adhere to the different surfaces.
The next things that you need to do is make the necessary measurements. Add two inches to your measurements to make sure that the vapor barrier will be larger than the surface.
Roll the vapor barrier on the surface of the walls or floor and use a staple gun to fix it.
To seal the overlaying sheets of vapor barrier use only special tape.


Frederick Murray Nankivell was born on 24 May 1853 in St Kilda Melbourne and died in 1900 in United States of America at age 47. Frederick married Barbara Mary Atherton in 1887 in Heidelberg, Victoria. Barbara was born in Hamburg, Germany.


This wine beautifully encapsulates the Delmas style: profound aromatics, exquisite texture, fantastic complexity, and superb length. Captivating aromatics of kirsch, huckleberry, wild flowers, white pepper, crushed rocks, fine talcum, exotic tea, and smoked game. The palate shows precise balance with complex notes of blueberry, raspberry, kirsch, roasted herbs, truffle, white pepper, and bacon fat. The long finish reverberates with notes of dark chocolate, kirsch, baking spices, and cedar. With proper cellaring, the wine will gain complexity each year and should reach maturity in approximately 8-10 years, and hold for approximately 15+ years. However, cellaring may be a very difficult task as this wine is virtually impossible to resist: a feminine beauty with charm, grace, poise, and substance... quite simply, wow!
We strongly recommend opening Delmas Syrah a minimum of 2-3 hours before enjoying and decant if possible.
Enjoy slightly cool (60 degrees).
This wine has a captivating bouquet of huckleberry, blackberry, violets, white pepper, garrigue with subtle hints of black olive, smoked meat, and smoldering incense. Like the 2014 Delmas Syrah, this wine has exquisite balance coupled with a seductive texture. The wine shows incredible complexity on the palate: blackberry, raspberry, stony minerality, white pepper, dark chocolate with nuances of nutmeg and roasted herbs. The elegantly long finish echoes tones of huckleberry, white pepper, espresso, and truffles. While this wine will pair beautifully with a variety of dishes, it is also a wine for contemplation and reflection. The refreshing acidity and structure suggests good aging potential. With proper cellaring, the wine will gain complexity each year and should reach maturity in approximately 8-10 years, and hold for approximately 15+ years.
Very complex bouquet of damson plums, violets, blueberry, blackberry, garrigue, black olive and smoldering incense. This is a wine of exquisite balance and seductive texture. The beautifully ripe tannins and lively acidity provide the framework for successful aging. The aromatic complexity follows through nicely on the palate: blackberry, raspberry, bacon fat, sage, white pepper, allspice, dark chocolate, and stony minerality. The protracted finish echoes violet-like floral tones with hints of blueberry, espresso and truffles. This wine will satisfy the intellect as well as the palate. It will likely gain in complexity each year, reach maturity in approximately 8-10 years and hold for approximately 15+ years.
The 2013 Delmas Syrah offers a beautiful deep purple color with complex aromatics of smoldering incense, violets, minerals, black plum and black raspberry with nuances of sage, white pepper, bacon fat and vanilla. It is unmistakably rich and seductive on the palate with flavors of blackberry, truffles, spice, scorched earth, bacon fat, dark chocolate and minerals. Hints of espresso, white pepper and stony minerality linger beautifully on the finish. This terroir-driven wine possesses all of the characteristics of a great wine: complex aromatics, beautiful initial attack, layered mid-palate, long length and exquisite balance. Properly cellared, this wine will reward the patient collector; it will likely gain in complexity each year and reach maturity in approximately 10 years. It should provide excellent drinking for the next 15-20 years.
The 2012 Delmas Syrah has a lovely brilliant purple color with gorgeous aromatics of violets, minerals, black raspberry and incense. Adding to the aromatic complexity are subtle nuances of lavender, thyme and vanilla. The palate offers equally dazzling complexity: blackberry, black raspberry, dark chocolate, lavender, black pepper, espresso, earth, minerals and truffles. The fine-grained, supple tannins and high level of glycerol contribute to a rich, seductive mouth feel, while the lively acidity refreshes the palate with each sip. This terroir-driven wine exhibits great length with a stony, mineral- dominant finish. The wine is enjoyable now but will benefit from proper cellaring; it will likely hit maturity in 8-10 years.
The gorgeous aromatics showcase a beautiful expression of terroir – laden with notes of crushed rock, mineral, earth, truffle, incense, smoked meat, sage and lavender. The palate presents a decadent texture with cashmere-like tannins. Earth, crushed rock, red cherry, blackberry, black pepper, smoked meat and hints of mint gently unfold across the palate, culminating in a seductively long finish. The wine is concentrated and dense, without any sense of heaviness; it is the epitome of grace and elegance. Properly cellared, this wine should evolve beautifully for the next 12-15 years.
The wine exhibits beautiful structure, complexity and length. The enticing bouquet offers kirsch, blackberry, earth, truffle, vanilla and a hint of lavender. The palate's silky texture and very fine tannins envelop flavors of blackberry, black cherry, black pepper, vanilla, mint, minerals and earth. The resonant, silky, mineral-driven finish lingers for well over a minute. This elegantly structured Syrah is a testament to the unique terroir of "The Rocks District" within the Walla Walla Valley AVA.

Q: Formula to rank data in a new table from another one I have a table of transactions by industries (industrias) for 2 years (2017 and 2018) and from them I want to create another table in which only appear the first 4 industries that have more transactions (name of the industry and next to the number of transactions) and in a 5th row appear Other industries which add the number of transactions of the industries that were out of the ranking. (that is, the sum of all the other industries that did not reach the ranking). If there are industries that have the same amount I just need to sort them alphabetically.
What would be the formula for the "otras industrias" in the output? because it have to has the sum of the all other ones that are not in the top of the ranking.
INPUT:
Industrias                                  2017    2018
Acero, metalurgia y producción industrial    2       5
Aeroespacio y Aeronautica                    3       2
Agro                                         5       3
Agua y sanitización                          6       0
Alimentos y bebidas                          7       0
Armas y Municiones                           8       6
Automotriz                                   4       6

DESIRED OUTPUT:
Ranking 2018
       Industry       N° transacctions
1°  Name of industry          x
2°  Name of industry          Y
3°  Name of industry          Z
4° Otras industrias           w

A: For "Industry", this will handle ties since you're ranking integers:
=INDEX(INPUT[Industrias],ROUND(MOD(1-LARGE(INDEX(INPUT[2018]+(ROW($C$2)-ROW(INPUT[2018]))/(COUNT(INPUT[2018])+1),),[@Rank]),1)*(COUNT(INPUT[2018])+1)+1,0),)
Number of transactions will be simply:
=LARGE(INPUT[2018],[@Rank])

A: The simplest solution that I can work out is..

*

*highlight all your data(including headers),

*Data > sort.

*Then tick "my data has headers",

*sort by > "2018", Order > "Largest" to smallest.

*Add Level : sort by > "Industrias", Order > "A to Z" to smallest.

Done. Hope that solves. ( :
p/s : alternatively.. you may explore to build on formula using manual text sort .

SAFE SPACE FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS
by Raise Your Voice Saint Lucia Inc
Reports Photos Share
Why do Domestic Violence Victims Stay?
By Catherine Sealys - President
When it is a viable option, it is best for victims to do what they can to escape their abusers. However, this is not the case in all situations. Abusers repeatedly go to extremes to prevent the victim from leaving. In fact, stories from our clients suggests leaving an abuser or threatening to leave an abuser is the most dangerous time for a victim of domestic violence. Out of seven domestic homicides in 2016/17 families suggests that victims were planning to leave the relationship, however they were also afraid there was no safe space to go and their abuser may find them.
Victim's reasons for staying with their abusers are based on the reality that their abuser will follow through with the threats they have used to keep them trapped: threats such as - the abuser will hurt or kill them, they will hurt or kill the kids, they will win custody of the children, they will ruin their victim financially -- the list goes on. The victim in violent relationships knows their abuser best and fully knows the extent to which they will go to make sure they have and can maintain control over the victim. The victim literally may not be able to safely escape or protect those they love.
In 2018 we worked with forty two (42) domestic violence and seventy one (71) in 2019, this is what we learnt from our interviews.
The fear that the abuser's actions will become more violent and may become lethal if the victim attempts to leave.
Unsupportive family and friends networks
Knowledge of the difficulties of single parenting and reduced financial circumstances
The victim feeling that the relationship is a mix of good times, love and hope along with the manipulation, intimidation and fear.
The victim's lack of knowledge of or access to safety and support
Fear of losing custody of any children if they leave or divorce their abuser or fear the abuser will hurt, or even kill, their children
Lack of means to support themselves and/or their children financially or lack of access to cash, bank accounts, or assets
Lack of having somewhere to go (e.g. no friends or family to help, no money for travel as the country is small and one can easily be found,
The women's support shelter was full or limited by length of stay
Fear that homelessness may be their only option if they leave
Belief that two parent households are better for children, despite abuse
Inconsistency of abuse; during non-violent phases, the abuser may fulfill the victim's dream of romantic love. The victim may also rationalize the abuser is basically good until something bad happens and they have to "let off steam."
In 2020 we need your support to expand our shelter program and to ensure every victim has a place to go.
THE BENEFITS OF HAVING A STRONG, SECURE SHELTER
While not every victim of domestic violence is female, women constitute the majority, we have not yet encountered a single man since we started working with victims of domestic violence in February 2012. We work closely with many survivors of domestic and women in particular, stay in dangerous relationships for many reasons. Many times, a chief reason is the lack of an accessible and welcoming women support shelter, woman in an abusive relationship may not feel she has anywhere else to go. Extended family may not be near or welcoming. An inability to be self-supporting can leave many feeling they are "stuck" in their situation.
A crisis shelter gives women in imminent danger someplace safe and secure to escape from harm. Friends and family may be non-existent or too accessible to the abusing partner. A crisis shelter offers a roof, meals and a location where the abuser cannot reach them.
In most cases, the crisis shelter offers much more – like a consistent, safe place to recoup from the strain of real and pending danger – not just for themselves, but for their children also. It also offers them an environment to encourage their potential, rather than crush their self-image. The shelter offers space to breathe and re-imagine life alongside those who have reached this hope for themselves. Hope for a better future can be born, and this includes hope for new opportunities for children who have witnessed domestic abuse or experienced homelessness.
Many times, it takes more than 60 or 90 days to start rebuilding a life, so we also working to offer longer-term housing so women can access other services which empower her to work toward enhanced career opportunities, including education and resources toward her own permanent residence.
Because our team works on a daily basis with those who face abuse, we have an authoritative voice when it comes to public policy. Victims may lack confidence in themselves or 'the system' but we can speak confidently and assuredly on their behalf. In this way, crisis we benefit not only those in immediate danger, but can help to protect others in the community before they are victimized. For all these reasons, and more, we hope you can see why it's so important to support a safe space for women and children who are victims of domestic abuse.
INADEQUATE SHELTER FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS
Saint Lucia has one domestic violence shelter in the north of the island, therefore, every domestic violence victims must be transportated to this one shelter, most instances the shelter is inundated because our domestic violence situation is at a critical state with no obvious support for victims including the absence of a domestic violence act.
Our initial mandate was to advocate for and on behalf of women and children who are victims of violence and lack of access to swift justice. Our work is hard and tedious because entrenched cultures make change difficult, therefore it is necessary to be persistent in our efforts to raise awareness and educate everyone on the detrimental effects of gender base violence on us as individuals, on homes, families and the country. Coupled with these responsibilities we are hosting women who cannot go to the shelter or stay at their own homes because of the threat of harm by intimate partners and partners who threaten the safety and security of their children
For the Period 2013/15 the Division of Human Services reported eight hundred and twelve cases (812) cases of child abuse, categorized as physical abuse, verbal/psychological abuse, sexual abuse and abandonment/neglect;
For the period 2013 to 2014 & 2016 the Family Court reported a total of one thousand and thirty (1039) nine cases of domestic violence, figures for 2015 were not available;
For the period 2015 the Vulnerable Persons Unit of the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force recorded 112 cases of sexual assault/rape and 52 cases of domestic violence, in 2016 the department recorded 250 cases of this total 36 were domestic violence and 214 were sexual assault and rape;
For the period 2013/16 the Women Support Shelter recorded a total of 1076 domestic violence crisis calls, there was a marked increase in 2016 reflecting a total of 435 crisis calls.
These statistics show a startling and persistent increase in gender based violence, we believe public education and awareness, increased resources (human, training and capacity building) to social services agencies is critical to minimize the high rate of gender based violence, critical legislation to provide a more equitable environment and minimize legal victimization of women and children have been pending for very, very long.
We continue to struggle for resources to assist victims while being thankful for those who support our work and vision.
A SAFE SPACE FOR VICTIMS TO BE DEBRIEFED, SHELTERED AND SUPPORTED IS CRITICAL FOR EVERYONE.
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS NEEDS YOUR DONATIONS
Over the last five years domestic homicide has risen to unprecedented levels, in 2017 we had seven domestic homicides, over the last year we have had at least three women killed by their partners and investigations revealed post death that they had been trying to leave the relationship but with no where to go.
We need an Emergency Shelter for survivors of domestic violence and their children.
Because emergency services must be available to women and children who are unsafe in their present living situation.
This proposed safe house will provide three meals per day, toiletries, and other daily essentials such as diapers and laundry facilities, but most importantly emotional and psychological support and safety.
Advocates will provide help with attaining goals, referrals to other agencies and services, and counseling. Residents and their children will be provided with several opportunities to attend support groups and other special activities throughout their stay.
Our Domestic Violence Services Program (DVS) will provide emotional and practical support to survivors of domestic violence, primarily those who will be accomondated at the proposed safe house. Our goal is to help survivors to become or remain safe and autonomous.
Legal Advocates will provide assistance and support to survivors of domestic violence as they engage with the criminal or civil legal system. These services include matters involving criminal charges against the batterer, matters involving criminal charges against the survivor, obtaining and enforcing personal protection orders, pursuing divorce and child custody issues, landlord/tenant issues, and other matters. Legal Advocates will also be available for court accompaniment to all court hearings.
We cannot continue to allow victims of domestic violence to be on their own and being killed trying to figure a way out.

Yesterday I went to the beautiful park by the castle Haga in Stockholm to attend a costuming picknic (wich I will tell you about in my next post). And as it was the first outing for my new striped Robe Anglaise I made sure to get some good photos of me wearing it.
So here you go – my newest gown beautifully depicted by my sister using the enviroment of the park as a backdrop.
Wearing the skirt bustled up, and paired with a long fichu.
Then I let the skirt down and removed the fichu.
My new profile picture, don't you think….
Yeah, the dressform usaly never wear anything half as well, as the person the item is made for.
Thanks, I'm really pleased how it all turned out.

Buddy Jewell appears on CMT Most Wanted Live Saturday (July 5) at 7 p.m. ET/PT.
Nice guys don't gloat, but Buddy Jewell is taking a small degree of pleasure when he considers how many people are suddenly anxious to become a part of his career. All it took was winning the grand prize in the nationally televised Nashville Star talent competition.
Jewell has already scored his first hit single with his original song, "Pour Out the Rain (Lacey's Song)." It's the first single from his self-titled debut album for Columbia Records.
To recap his story, Jewell is a 41-year-old native of Arkansas. With a wife and three children, he has earned a good living in Nashville as a demo singer. Recording as many as 500 songs a year, Jewell was in high demand among songwriters who needed to have a tape of their songs to pitch to artists and producers. Until Nashville Star, however, Jewell was never given the chance for his own deals as a songwriter and major label recording artist.
As part of the Nashville Star prize, Clint Black produced Jewell's album. It proved to be a good fit for a project that had to be recorded in just 10 days. Fortunately, Black and the record label offered a great deal of flexibility in planning and recording the album.
As a veteran of the music business, Jewell is painfully aware that getting a record deal is only one of the first of many steps in becoming a successful artist. Asked about the misconceptions most people have about launching a music career, Jewell quickly replies, "I think the biggest one is that it's all about talent. We know that's not true. I guess the other thing was that I thought talent could overcome a lot of obstacles — the age factor, in my case — and not being somebody they're gonna rush to stick on the front of GQ magazine.
"Another misconception, especially when I was out on the road, is that you could be playing somewhere like Nowheres, N.M., and somebody from one of the labels was going to stumble across you and sign you to a big record deal. More often than not, that's not going to happen. It makes sense. Every day, these guys have people bringing them a complete package here in town. Why should they go out looking for it?
The exposure on Nashville Star brought Jewell the kind of national recognition that sets him apart from other new artists. Even though he never imagined a talent competition would lead him toward his dream, he welcomes the chance.
Jewell doesn't mince words when he talks about how he'd like his career to progress.
"I want to be a successful recording artist," he says. "I want to win CMA awards and ACM awards and Grammys and have No. 1 songs that I either sang or wrote. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this record does.
