Danielle Hicks: No place like Ohm
Danielle Hicks has a sultry jazz/blues singing style. She performs, with guitarist Nate Saraceno, as Danielle Hicks and the Eight Ohm Resistance. Next date: March 9 at Molly McGuire's.
For Danielle Hicks, it's always been about following her dreams.
In Tifton, her Georgia hometown, she caught the theater bug. After high school she was awarded a scholarship to New York's American Musical and Dramatic Academy, a breeding ground for "triple threats" (performers who can dazzle the showbiz world with singing, acting and dancing).
Whatever. "I had an interest in acting," Hicks says, "but the truth is I grew up singing in my father's rock 'n' roll band.
"Also, I was a great little actress in Tifton, Georgia, but when I got up to Manhattan, I was at a school with kids from New Zealand who were doing commercials since they were 5."
By the time she graduated, in 2003, Hicks was focused on becoming a "single threat." Her teachers, fellow students and pretty much everybody else told her she was a hell of a singer.
So she showcased, played clubs and made some recordings, working a corporate job during the daylight hours. She rented a sweet one-bedroom on Manhattan's Upper East Side.
All well and good, you say. But how did Danielle Hicks become the top blues and jazz chanteuse in Savannah?
Here's how: Her sister Johnna called.
"We grew up really, really poor," Hicks explains, "sharing a bedroom in a single-wide trailer. She told me multiple times in our adult life that when I moved away, it kinda broke her heart. And that 'It was just the same old thing, but without you. And it was awful.' She'd been asking me to come home for a long time."
So when Johnna was accepted into Mercer Medical School in Savannah, Danielle took a leave of absence, sublet her apartment —at a loss—and hustled south to help with the transition.
"I think it was my seventh month of paying my Manhattan rent, and draining my 401K, that I was like, 'I am living in the South whether I want to admit it or not.' That's kinda how it happened."
She had to pay a company to empty her apartment and ship her stuff to Georgia. Hicks fanned out in the direction of the Savannah music scene, visiting open mics, networking and sitting in. She spent two years as vocalist for the blues band Jubal Kane before striking out on her own, first by fronting a small band.
This evolved into Danielle Hicks and the Eight Ohm Resistance. It's just her and guitarist Nate Saraceno, former bassist for the Eric Culberson Band.
Saraceno uses an onstage looping technique to create, on the spot, a bass, guitar and percussion background over which Hicks ladles her sexy, supple voice.
"Nate is a genius," Hicks says. "He doesn't like it when I call him that, but he is so smart. He's so quiet, but he is a very thoughtful individual. He started working on this looping, to give him a foundation to play leads, and then he took it to a whole other level when he showed up with a stand for the bass. And that has really transformed our show."
The pair's next date is Sunday, March 9 at Molly McGuire's on Wilmington Island. "I still sing some rock 'n' roll ... but I want to do a blues album, with some nice jazz influences," she explains (they've been writing songs together, many of which you'll experience at an Eight Ohm performance).
Dr. Johnna Hicks, meanwhile, graduated in 2013.
Her innate theatricality imbues Danielle's Hicks' stage persona—she sways and smiles and practically "acts" the song lyrics as an all-inclusive come-on to the audience.
After the album will come more regional shows, and hopefully a tour of the East Coast that will take Hicks back to New York City for an "I told you so" visit.
However it plays out, the new dream is to consider herself a Savannahian. "I'm 30 years old and I'm thinking about buying here," Hicks says. "I paid Manhattan rent for 10 years, now I've rented here for three and a half ... I want to travel the country behind an album I'm really proud of, but I can definitely see calling Savannah my home, sure." And now, this

Wilko "committed" to Wakefield, despite being forced to find new home
TV star Jane McDonald backs Wakefield Hospice butterfly campaign
TV star Jane McDonald has offered her support to a Wakefield Hospice campaign designed to create a display of colourful butterflies dedicated to lost loved ones.
By Holly Gittins
Thursday, 15th July 2021, 3:51 pm
The hospice's Butterfly Appeal invites members of the public to decorate a butterfly in memory of someone special, which will then be displayed in the hospice gardens.
Sharing a post by the hospice on Twitter Ms McDonald described the project as a "lovely idea" and urged her followers to get involved.
The veteran singer and TV presenter has a long history of supporting Wakefield Hospice, having previously held galas to fundraise in its name.
TV star Jane McDonald has offered her support to a Wakefield Hospice campaign designed to create a display of colourful butterflies dedicated to lost loved ones. Ms McDonald is pictured at a gala event to raise money for the hospice in 2012.
Earlier this year, she thanked her fans after they raised more than £12,000 for the charity in memory of her long-term partner Ed Rothe.
Sharing the Hospice's appeal on Twitter, she wrote: "A lovely idea to remember lost loved ones and support a fantastic charity."
A post about the project on the Wakefield Hospice website says: "For a donation of your choice you will receive a simple wooden template to decorate and a postcard with the name of the person you are remembering.
"The template is approx 15 x 12cm and can be decorated any way you wish. Find some tips on decorating your butterfly here.
"Alternatively we can decorate a butterfly for you and include it in the display on your behalf.
"You can dedicate a butterfly whether or not you have a link to the hospice, and if you've been bereaved recently or some time ago."
See wakefieldhospice.org to find out more.

"Free Keyword Research Tools to Find Your Niche"
From Wikipedia the definition of keyword is: An index term, subject term, subject heading, or descriptor, in information retrieval, is a term that captures the essence of the topic of a document.
When someone wants to find something related to his problem or question, he types in a keyword or better yet a keyword phrase. More experienced internet users type in specific, narrow phrases that define what they are looking for.
You have read that you need to create a blog...now is the time. You have heard that having a blog attached to a website, or just having a blog will bring you traffic. That's true, but if you want to be successful, you need to compete in a niche that isn't overcrowded...and more importantly, you really have to like the niche you are going to be working in you will be thinking about, writing about and dreaming about it for some time.
I can't help you with whether you will love the niche. That is a choice that I cannot help you with. However, I do have something to say about overcrowded niches.
Overcrowded means that if you do a search in say, "internet marketing", with quotation marks, you will see there are about 39,200,000 results in Google. I am going to tell you, that you cannot compete in that broad niche.
You will have to find a smaller portion of internet marketing to compete in.
You may not like these suggestions, but if you keep digging long enough with the proper free tools, you will find a niche where there isn't too much competition. You don't want to go too far afield, though. If you choose a niche that is too small, you won't have enough traffic.
Where did I come up with these niches? One of the free keyword tools that I use is the Google External keyword tool. (You will find it on the list.) These particular suggestions show that they don't have a large number of people searching for these terms.
You will be spending hours and hours promoting your blog, so make sure that you do a good job of researching your niche. Use MANY of the free tools that I list to help you to absorb, think, study and wallow around because this is an important topic.
I have seen, many times, that people spend three to six months in a particular niche and make no progress. Finally, you realize that you cannot compete with a long-established site if it is in a broad niche.
Don't waste your time working and promoting, until you have defined a small, but important area in which to concentrate your efforts.
I suggest that you use these tools listed and spend about two weeks or so researching. This is probably as important as finding a soul-mate. It may take lots of searching, but you will have the tools with which to do the searching...that's easier than finding a soul-mate.
After all, if you don't have a strong desire to communicate in a particular niche, it will be work. If you love your niche, it isn't work.
Because of space limitations, the Monster List of Free Keyword Tools are at my website.

Q: JHipster Master-Detail UI Is there a way to generate master-detail form in JHipster?
I have generated two entities:

*

*Order

*Item (many-to-one to Order)

and I would like to have CRUD for Items in the Order form.
Thank you.

A: You have all the CRUD code for both entities. You will need to change your controller and the template for your order so that you can be able to perform CRUD operation on item from the order page.

How did you "use" it the first time?
5 humus and seeds of oat, then humus for speeding up. Now it eats humus before being seeded, but does not give the percent ratios.

...you ... need to seed it again, like, every time, how else would you determine what you want this time one the field?
If you can't seed it, check if the upkeep is at 600%, then a crow messed up the field, in that case you'll need either cabbage seeds or a seedbag to be able to hold enough in hand for seeding.
Sigh, I know I need to seed it again and I have the upkeep on 600 percent. So I just need more seeds then?
TheGoth wrote: Sigh, I know I need to seed it again and I have the upkeep on 600 percent. So I just need more seeds then?
So, that means that if your field is at 600% you will need 6 TIMES the amount required for a 100% field.
According to the list above, you would need 90 seeds of Cabbage or Potato, or 300 seeds of all other crops.
Planting seeds requires that you have all the seeds in your hand to plant. That means that you either need to use a single stack of Cabbage or Potato (90 needed, maximum stack size is 100), or you need a planter's pouch with 300 or more of any other seed.
BTW, the same applies to HUMUS. If you need 5 Humus for a 100% field, then you need 30 Humus for a 600% field.
Fertilizers work the same regardless of the field Upkeep.
Note it will drop from 600% to 100% upkeep after planting, so you don't need to reduce it with a million woodchoppings from 600%, but just from 100% again as if it was a new field.
Wow, my problem is that I just logged in to play my character and it turned out that I was in the farmer's house completely naked. All the inventory disappeared, clothes. Besides everything else is in place, all the crates intact, full of what I collected and produced so far, there is only homestead that disappeared to. I do not understand what happend. How to report this to the game creators?
Looks like yes, I found traces. What can I do now, unfortunately, low level.
You still have your character and some of your things. What you need to do now is rebuild. Maybe move to a different location, maybe your defenses were poor and need to be better. Definitely next time you should remember to fill your claim stone, as only an empty stone can be destroyed.


New car, overseas adventure, home renovation, upcoming wedding, baby on the way...there's plenty of reasons to take out a personal loan.
So if you're looking for a loan that will help you pay for your upcoming expense without breaking the bank, this guide is for you. We'll run you through some of the top ways to land yourself a cheap personal loan deal to help you keep more money in your pocket in the long run.
Headline rate: When you begin your personal loan comparison you'll soon notice that there are two main types of interest rates that will be displayed next to the product information. Firstly you'll see the headline interest rate, which is the rate you will be charged by the lender for taking out the loan. While this is a good indication of whether the personal loan is a competitive package, don't forget to check with the comparison rate is.
Comparison rate: By law lenders need to show the comparison rate next to the headline rate. The reason is because it gives you a better idea of how much the personal loan really costs when some of the fees are merged with the headline rate. But keep in mind the comparison rate only uses a set equation e.g $30,000 paid back over 5 years. So you may want to run the numbers using our personal loan repayments calculator to ensure the personal loan is the best for your scenario.
Looking for a low interest loan? compare below.
Application fee: Payable when you apply for the loan, a personal loan upfront fee could be anywhere between $0-$700 depending on the provider. Generally, the reason lenders may charge an upfront fee is to cover some of their administration costs e.g running a credit check on you. If a loan comes with a high application fee, you'll want to ensure that the savings you make from the low interest rate (and or competitive features) are worth it.
Ongoing fee: The same applies for any regular fees that you'll be charged over the life of the loan, as these could add up to big bucks in the long run. But thankfully, with most providers the ongoing monthly fee isn't too dear sitting at around $10.
Break cost fee: Some fixed rate loans these days come with an extra repayments facility, which allows you to pay extra on your loan ultimately meaning you will pay it off sooner. But the thing you'll need to watch out for is fixed rate loans can come with a break cost fee, which is a pricey fee charged if you try to pay off the loan early.
Extra repayments: Finding a personal loan that comes with the option of making extra repayments should be high on your priority list. For example, say you take out a loan for 5 years and score a work promotion after 2 years but when you go to make extra repayments, you discover that the loan doesn't allow additional payments. That would be more than a frustrating scenario! So when you look for a cheap personal loan deal, make sure it allows you to make fee free additional repayments, so you have the flexibility to pay the loan off when you come into extra money.
Redraw facility: Let's give you another scenario. You make extra repayments on your loan but then bam your car breaks down and you need to throw down a few thousand for repairs. If you don't have the cash handy, a redraw facility allows you to draw upon the additional repayments. Just keep in mind while a redraw facility can come in handy, you will end up paying more in interest and will extend the life of the loan by redrawing.
Flexible repayments: Some personal loans only allow you to set up your repayments monthly. So if you get paid weekly or fortnightly it's worth taking the time to check that the cheap personal loan also comes with repayment flexibility e.g allows you to choose between weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayments. It might even be a thrifty option to set up your repayments fortnightly, as you'll pay back a month moreover a year period. Let's run some numbers. There are 26 fortnights in a year, so if your repayments are $500 you will pay back $13,000 over a year. By comparison paying $1,000 over 12 months you'll only pay back $12,000.
For the borrowers out there that own assets like expensive household items, property or a car, did you know you may be able to use these as security for the loan? Putting up an asset as collateral means if you forfeit on the personal loan the lender can seize the asset and sell it to recover their loss. This obviously makes you a less risky borrower. In return you'll get a much cheaper personal loan deal.
For instance, at the time of writing one major bank was offering a competitive 8.49% interest rate with its secured loan, by comparison its unsecured loan had a much higher rate of 13.75%. To really put things in perspective, our personal loan comparison calculator shows on a $15,000 loan the lower rate loan would save you $2,364 in interest over a 5 year period.
Another method you could use for scoring yourself a cheaper personal loan deal is bringing some of your other banking products to the table like your credit card, savings account or bank account. You may find the lender will be willing to bring down the interest rate or wipe the personal loan application fee for borrowers that bundle.
Are you comfortable with managing your personal loan online? Then it's worth considering a personal loan from a challenger brand. Today there are many online only personal loan and peer to peer providers offering competitive personal loan deals to Aussie borrowers.
Without the huge costs that the banks incur like paying dividends to shareholders and the cost of branch upkeep and staff, these lenders are able to pass on cheaper personal loan deals than the big banks.
Step 1: Use a comparison tool - See what's out there in the market by punching your details, like how much you're looking to borrow and how many years you want the loan for, into our personal loan comparison calculator.
Step 2: Create a shortlist - Our personal loan calculator allows you to select the products you like and compare them side by side. As mentioned above, don't just compare the deals by the headline interest rate, but also check the comparison rate to ensure you're hunting down the cheapest deal for you.
Step 3: Kick off your application - Once you've found a personal loan deal that you're happy with, click on the 'go to site' tab to be taken directly to the provider's website to fill out your application online.

100 Days: The Resiliency of the Kenyan Physician's Strike
Authors: John Purakal, MD, MSc Former Chief Resident
The wheels of my suitcase were the only audible noise in the corridors of Kenyatta National Hospital. On our first day in Nairobi, as we made our way through the clinics to the lecture hall, a shortcut led us to the Accident & Emergency (A&E) Department. Preceding our trip, we had heard stories about the A&E department for months. As an emergency physician, I was interested in seeing how the internists who staff the A&E–without formal emergency medicine training–handled the most critical patients. However, on this morning, day 38 of a countrywide doctor's strike, the A&E was a skeleton of its usual self. There was just a spattering of military paramedics in full fatigues, with assault rifles strapped to their backs, performing basic suturing and first-aid. Similarly empty were the operating rooms, medical wards and the medical school campus at Kenyatta National Hospital. An identical scene was present at every public-sector hospital across the country.
An estimated 5,000 members of the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Union (KMPDU) who work in public hospitals across Kenya went on strike on December 5, 2016. This was a result of broken promises made to physicians in the 2013 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) by the Kenyan government. This agreement promised that the government would provide physicians improved work environments, allowances for paid/unpaid leave, a research fund, insurance coverage, safety regulations, hour restrictions, over-time wages, and improvements in medical equipment. The CBA ensured 400 new residency positions and the recruitment of 1,200 physicians a year for four years in order to offset Kenya's dismal physician-to-population ratio, which is at best estimated at 1:5000. Most notably, the physicians were set to procure significant (300%) raises, totaling a minimum gross wage of Kshs 447,000 ($4,300 USD) and Kshs 1,276,000 ($12,500 USD) per month for the lowest and highest paid doctor, respectively. The CBA, was agreed upon on June 27, 2013. It was expected to be enacted on July 1, 2016, but this was never carried out by the government. After five months of warning, the KMPDU took to the streets in protest of this failure.
The union's distrust of the government is not without reason. The Abuja Declaration, established between African Union countries in 2001, pledged to set a target of allocating at least 15% of their annual budget to improve the health sector. Kenya's current allocation is 2.7% of their total annual expenditure. In 2016, a leaked internal audit surfaced revealing a quarter of the 2015 national budget ($4.4 billion USD) went unaccounted for, with over $50 million of that sum coming from the national health ministry's fund. In addition, during the three years leading up to the strike, the Kenyan government repeatedly voted to raise their own annual salaries and benefits, with legislators reportedly making up to $14,000 USD per month.
Further widening the chasm between the two sides are the transgressions of the Kenyan government since the strike began: threats to hire scab physicians from other countries, failed "compromise" deals with the union at a fraction of the original agreement, and even imprisonment of seven KMPDU leaders. Many newspaper articles have taken the stance that the Kenyan people are suffering, while the "greedy doctors" demand higher wages. All the same, it is difficult to imagine truly unbiased coverage by media outlets, which are strongly influenced by government leadership (who happen to be up for re-election on August 8, 2017). Social media is even playing a role, as the government has been accused of paying fake bloggers to create the trending hashtags "#greedydoctors" and "#mybaddoctorexperience."
Strewn amidst the contention are the patients, quietly dying outside of the forty-seven empty Kenyan public hospitals that normally provide care for the majority of the country. There are countless stories of young women dying from pregnancy-related complications, cancer patients' health deteriorating because of missed treatment sessions, and prescriptions that are unaffordable outside of the unionized hospitals. Without emergency services running in the public sector, critically ill patients are left to watch their disease processes play out unless they are among the minority who are able to afford care at private hospitals. The private hospitals, many of which have facilities that rival our own hospitals, are running normally, staffed by physicians who are largely unaffected by the strike. These facilities, capable as they may be, are not affordable to most Kenyans, and are now experiencing critical levels of crowding due to the affluent patients who have switched out of necessity.
These physicians are overworked, underpaid, and forced to practice medicine in conditions that would frustrate the most altruistic of us in the U.S. Our work in Nairobi introduced us to many remarkable interns and students, who have united in solidarity to support the KMPDU even though their training has been disrupted and their career trajectories are in question. The current situation has left many in the union feeling voiceless, wondering if the desired reconciliation is worth the incurred injustices. And yet, they persist. They continue their fight for the rights of their patients and each other. Faced with the threat of imprisonment and losing what savings they have, instead of seeking work abroad, they peacefully march on. These protesting Kenyan physicians are truly inspirational. These stalwarts have taught me a great deal about resilience and fighting for what is right when your principles are in jeopardy.
A physician once told me that practicing medicine in East Africa is like "trying to eat soup with a fork." It is a simple enough analogy, yet this "one step forward, two steps back" theme can be seen in many facets of healthcare in the U.S. as well. On the eve of our arrival to Kenya, over forty million people were without access to care because of the strike. That same day, the United States Senate voted to begin the repeal of the Affordable Care Act, which has provided insurance for twenty million people since its rollout.
On March 14, 2017, day 100 of the strike, the government and union agreed to increased wages in exchange for a return to work for the physicians while negotiations continue regarding the rest of the CBA. Conversely, our leadership in the U.S. has proposed the American Health Care Act, which would have implemented substantial cuts to Medicaid and subsidies that help earners making less than $40,000 a year in efforts to cut the national deficit. An estimated 14 million people would have lost insurance in 2018 under this new plan. As of mid-April, the current administration has been unable to pass this version of their healthcare act.
Aside from healthcare reform, the current administration has proposed a $5.8 billion cut to the National Institutes of Health budget, which funds scientific research in the U.S. This, along with overwhelming disregard of facts by our current administration, led to over 500 cities across the world hosting rallies in support of science on April 22, 2017.
The political climate and rhetoric on Capitol Hill, now more than ever, demonstrates the need for effective leadership to represent the best interests of our patients. It is not a fight for our own quality of life that is needed here, but for those we treat.
In the years to come, we will need physicians, scientists, policy-makers, and hybrids thereof to lead a concerted effort to grow the voice of our disenfranchised patient partners. If those of us who represent the voiceless through advocacy need inspiration and strength in the face of the challenges ahead, let us look no further than the resiliency of our Kenyan colleagues.

Eranthis hyemalis es una planta de la familia Ranunculaceae, la familia del ranúnculo, que se encuentra en Europa. La planta es pequeña, pero tiene flores grandes, amarillas, en forma de platillo. Se conoce comúnmente como "acónito de invierno" o "perdición del lobo". Esta planta crece de un tubérculo y tiene un hábito bajo. Todas las partes de la planta son venenosas cuando son consumidas por los seres humanos.

Descripción
Planta viváz, con raíces cortas, tuberculosas. Tronco de 1 a 20 cm., desnudo, lampiño. Hojas lampiñas, desarrollándose  después de las flores, 1 a 2 radicales, orbiculares pennatifidas. Involucro similar a las hojas, sobrepasando la flor y el fruto.

Las flores amarillas, solitarias y sésiles en el involucro.  Sépalos de 5 a 8, petaloides, caducos, pequeños pétalos de 5 a 8, muy tubulosos, de 2 labios, folículos de 5 a 8, libres, sobre 1 fila. Pedunculillos, divergentes, arrugados transversalmente, a pico igualando la mitad de su longitud.

La floración en Europa ocurre ya a mediados de febrero, siendo junto a las campanillas de invierno o al azafrán silvestre, una de las primeras plantas en hacerlo. Las flores suelen durar alrededor de una semana. Las flores se cierran durante la noche y el mal tiempo, y vuelven a abrirse durante el día. En este proceso de apertura y cierre, los pétalos crecen en longitud.

Distribución y hábitat
Su hábitat preferente son los lugares húmedos y boscosos. En Europa central, desde Francia y Suiza a Serbia.

Usos
Planta silvestre de los bosques, se utilizan cultivares en jardinería como tapizante cubre suelos, y está muy valorada como planta ornamental por el hecho de su follaje verde claro y las flores amarillas que aparecen extremadamente temprano en primavera (febrero a marzo).

Taxonomía

Eranthis hyemalis fue descrita por (Carlos Linneo) Richard Anthony Salisbury y publicado en Transactions of the Linnean Society of London 8: 304, en el año 1807.

What is the difference between physical optics and geometric optics?
Physics Refraction Advanced Optics Applications
Aritra G.
Geometric optics is when we treat light as a single beam (A ray) and study the properties. It deals with lenses, mirrors, phenomenon of total internal reflection, formation of rainbows, etc etc. In this case, the wavelike properties of light become insignificant as the objects we deal with are very huge as compared to the wavelength of light.
But, in physical optics, we consider the wave like properties of light and develop the more advanced concepts on the basis of Huygen's principle. We would deal with Young's double slit experiment and consequently with interference of light which is a characteristic of waves. We also deal with polarization and Diffraction which are also typical wavelike properties. Diffraction happens only when the obstacle's size is of the order of the wavelength of light. Maxwell's electromagnetic theory put the wave theory of light on a very firm footing. It is to be noted that reflection and refraction are explained by physical optics as well.
That's the basic difference was this.
In the later half of the 19th century, properties of radiation was discovered which could only be explained considering that radiation was comprised of discrete packets of energy. (Light is also a radiation).
So, whether a wave or a particle description is best depends on the situation.

GOING ON A SCHOOL TRIP!!!!!!
I pull out the well used argument that my smallest child, when I am around will, instead of spending her time with the class and really getting into the school trip and getting the full experience, will want to spend her time with me clinging to my leg, and not make the most of the trip.
A bit like a magazine with a photoshopped naked picture of Justin Bieber in it, you aren't buying it either, are you?
Let us never forget the great child abduction issue I experienced the last time I accompanied a group of children on one of these trips. I had five children to look after on a school trip that was all about public transport, this entailed taking a group of six year olds on buses, the London Underground and a sodding BOAT!!!!!!!
This was never going to end well was it?
I was on the bus with five little darlings when I saw one of my charges stroll off to join another group, (Little MONSTER) I ran over to him and began to tell him to come with me, I turn around and my group of children had all been distracted by something shiny and wandered off in different directions, the child who had wandered off just looked at me with sheer terror in his eyes and began to walk off with the other group, I was telling him to come over here, (I did everything but offer him sweeties to join me) I started to gently steer him away from the group he had joined and suddenly I look up and THERE is the child from my group where I left him.
THIS IS NOT MY CHILD, it is a copy, a duplicate sent to confuse me... Ok, a twin, and this child doesn't know who I AM..... he thinks I am stealing him...... (I am pretty glad I didn't go down the sweetie route now) Back away, Kellie, back away. no NOT like that, you just look guilty.
THIS IS WHY I SHOUDN"T BE ALLOWED TO SUPERVISE ON SCHOOL TRIPS. (That and I never really get a chance to enjoy the obligatory shop visit at the end of the trip - "Take that rubber out of your nose" "You have 50p and that Limited Edition print is £250, please put it back" "Why do you want marbles?" "If you buy that replica set of arrows your mother is going to KILL me"
So if there is no post up tomorrow morning, can someone check every corner of the room, just to make sure I am not still there, rocking.
And can someone come back to me on those wine cartons, ASAP.
Any tips for surviving a school trip?
hahaha! You're braver than me....Good luck!
Ah I love school trips! You get to go to nice places for free ;) Good luck though!
2) Have a sign around your neck saying " Help me I'm in charge" This will lead to either hilarity amongst the adults or total horror so you get let off and can go home.


The earthquake in Nepal created a horrific disaster. Lots of families are homeless. They need shelter, somewhere to live. Now.
Rotary shelter boxes are the answer. The Rotary Club of Kenilworth has already paid for one. It will provide a family with a temporary home for months. Each box contains a special family tent, blankets, tools, a cooking appliance, water purification kits and other life necessities. It costs £580.
The Shelter box system was founded in 2000 by the Rotary Club of Helston in Cornwall. It has sent many thousands of shelter boxes to disaster areas world wide ever since. Stocks of boxes are held in strategic points internationally for rapid delivery.
Shelter box response teams are in Nepal - they were in place within 48 hours to help organise the use of boxes. Rotary always works directly on the ground in disaster areas. If your readers would like to contribute to the cost of a shelter box, they can send their donation to The Rotary Club of Kenilworth, 6 Mayfield Drive, Kenilworth, CV8 2SW (cheques payable to the Rotary Club of Kenilworth).

You get $86,400 a day and you're "Fine?" How about Astounded, Excited or Triumphant?
My friend Byron in Boise, Idaho (USA) told me of a way I can access $86,400 a day, for life. He sent me this gift right as I was writing this post about how to inspire folks to live a little. To discover inner states beyond "OK" and "Fine." To be motivated to wake up and notice (and maybe sniff) the roses. He told me how I can access this gift today, even in the face of another ordinary, cereal-and-toast, off-to-work, home-again-too-late, TV-and-dinner-and-bed sort of day.
What a gift! So, I thought I'd share it with you.
Each morning your bank deposits $86,400.00 in your private account for your personal use. However, this prize has rules, just as any game has certain rules.
Rule #1 ~ Everything you didn't spend during each day would be taken away. You may not simply transfer money into some other account. You may only spend it. Each morning upon awakening, the bank opens your account with another $86,400.00 for that day.
Rule #2 ~ The bank can end the game without warning. At any time it can say, "Game over!" It can close the account and you will not receive a new one.
Or maybe astonished at your luck; relieved at no-more-money-worries; eager to get out and spend; excited about the possibilities; anxious that the game may end without you fully participating; elated at the wanton generosity; longing to make things better for someone else; deeply compassionate for the wider world which now, perhaps, you can help.
Not sure you can find enough good words to describe your inner bliss? Click here ~ Parrott Emotions Tree 2001 ~ for a fabulous list of emotions you can easily sort through.
Wow – what a high!
You can imagine feeling so alive, so vibrant, so present as you take care of yourself, your family and those around you. You'd spend every cent every day since you couldn't save it. You'd be quivering with the challenge and responsibility for how to make your daily investments of dollars.
What if I told you this was not a game, but reality.
To access your prize, just substitute "Time" for "Dollars".
Each morning you wake up to another 86,400 seconds as a gift of life.
At the end of the day any unspent seconds will not be credited back to you. You'll have the memories for how you invested your seconds yesterday. You'll have the excitement of a whole new 86,400 coming tomorrow – you hope. But the living of these seconds – that's your own wild and juicy ride.
Notice you're alive! Notice what words you'd use to describe how you feel in these seconds of alive. Are they variations on themes of love, joy, gratitude and surprise? If so, great. Get specific about how great you feel, pay attention to what helps get you to those states, and tomorrow – when you have your next 86,400 second installment – do these things some more.
PS: If you feel bad in the face of your 86,400 seconds see "I Feel So Bad".
Tomorrow: "I feel like you should…" If this is how you've been talking about your feelings, it's time to learn how to be more honest and effective.

PS on my view of the full blog, I had an ad at the bottom the said I should insist on 100% NZ pork. Do you?!?
So fun. You totally surprised me with the bait and switch! It is amazing how we "spend" our time and how we think we would like to spend out time–two different things, often!
Thanks Lisa – I was shocked when Byron sent his version to me as well. I have to say it's made a difference to my level of just feeling alive – this is it, right? Not a dress rehearsal.

Jason K. October 4, 2017 New Release
Director: Doug Liman
Screenwriter: Gary Spinelli
Cast: Tom Cruise, Domhnall Gleeson, Sarah Wright, and Jesse Plemons
I had an idea once for a movie where I'd pluck out a completely inconsequential character from a well-known film, and then base an entire story around that character. What I love most about this idea is that the film I write would stand firmly on its own two feet with no overt mention to the protagonist's connection to the larger, famous work. Only those who pick up the subtle clues would ever even be able to connect them.
I had a similar experience watching American Made. I'll admit that I am not up to date on my drug cartel history, but I do watch and love the Netflix series, Narcos. So as I'm sitting, watching, and enjoying Tom Cruise's new film American Made, I suddenly start thinking, "I know the name Barry Seal. Wasn't he in an episode of Narcos?" And then two things happened: 1. I felt what it would be like to have that revelation of realizing a frivolous character from one story is now the subject of another, and 2. I realized I knew everything that was going to happen in this movie. I loved realizing the first thing, but I was not as excited about realizing the second one.
The good news is I love Tom Cruise, and he made up for all the predictability that followed. So it turns out, yes, this is the story of Barry Seal – they guy from Season 1, Episode 4 of Narcos. Seal, played by Tom Cruise is a TWA pilot, who as America is in the grips of the Cold War during the 1970s catches the attention of a CIA agent, Monty Schafer (Domhnhall Gleeson). Seal has been smuggling Cuban cigar exiles into the states as a means of additional income, and Schafer sees Seal's activity not so much as punishable but as exploitative. Schafer offers Seal a chance to work secretly for the government, taking reconnaissance photos of South American guerilla camps and delivering bribes to Nicaraguan and Panamanian politicians and military personnel for information.
Of course, the CIA doesn't pay much, and Barry wants nothing more than to make a great life for his wife Lucy (Sarah Wright) and kids. That being said, it doesn't take long for the Columbian drug cartel headed by Jorge Ochoa (Alejandro Edda), Carlos Ledher (Fredy Yate Escobar), and an up-and-coming-kid Pablo Escobar (Mauricio Mejía) to take notice of an American spy plane running in and out of South America on a pretty regular basis. The cartel sees Seal's activity not so much as punishable but as exploitative…rinse, wash, repeat (see what I did there?).
The movie spends the rest of its focus watching Seal bounce back and forth between running drugs for the cartel and informing on "Commies" for the CIA. Meanwhile Seal just keeps getting richer, and richer and richer.
Still, the movie doesn't jive like I wanted it to. I think director Doug Liman and screenwriter, Gary Spinelli bet on the fact that most people who see this film wouldn't have seen episode 4 of Narcos. I also think they knew Tom Cruise in a plane is something people enjoy. Additionally, this marks the second collaboration between Liman and Cruise after 2014's Edge of Tomorrow, or was it called Live Die Repeat? No one knows for sure. Anyway, that was a great movie and Liman directed the hell out of it, a film which was basically Groundhog Day meets Terminator and has Cruise reporting to Brenden Gleeson. So why couldn't Doug Liman direct the hell out of a movie that is basically The Wolf of Wall Street meets Top Gun where Cruise is reporting to Dohmnall Gleeson? He can and he pretty much does. Liman gets a great performance out of Cruise, and a little birdy tells me there are at least two more Liman/Cruise joints in the works. This is good news.
What doesn't quite jive for me in this film are the circumstances, a deficit that I think mostly falls on the writing. There is a lot of coincidence and shrugging off of impossible situations in American Made. At one moment Seal is in a Columbian prison as government agents are about to raid his New Orleans home with his family asleep inside. The next moment, Seal and his family are living in Arkansas and they own an airplane hanger. It's not quite that sudden, but it's pretty close. Gleeson's Agent Schafer character is also oddly underdeveloped and while I understand his persona is supposed to be mysterious, he seems contradictory and far more dramatic than necessary. Lastly, Jesse Plemons is in this movie as a local sheriff, and I have to assume there is a cache of great footage of him on the cutting room floor somewhere because what's left of his character is barely an arc.
All in all, Cruise continues to entertain and gives more than just an action-packed performance. In a fall season where all there is to see is It for the 10th time, this is a worthy film that has far more high points than low ones. B
American Made is rated R and has a running time of 1 hour and 55 minutes.

What lifting the ban on poaching means for Botswana's tourism industry
Following the request of Botswana's President Mokgweetsi Masisi to review the hunting ban placed by his predecessor, Ian Khama in 2014, the cabinet ministers in Botswana have suggested that the southern African nation should lift its four-year ban on big game hunting and also allow the canning of elephant meat for pet food.
There has been rising tension over the alleged increase in elephant population, alongside concerns regarding how far they travel, with some arguing that the Elephants damage crops. The Director of the Department of Wildlife and National Parks, Otisitwe Tiroyamodimo told BBC Africa that there were many factors involved, including climate change.
"We started seeing that as soon as the rain started decreasing, the vegetation started deteriorating and then the elephants naturally migrated outside their natural range because they were getting very little water and very little feed," said Tiroyamodimo.
"The number of the elephants has increased – at the same time the human population also increased, and there has been demand for more land. Infrastructure development has also caused the elephants to migrate," he added.
However, according to the final results of an aerial wildlife survey conducted in Botswana by a charitable organisation, "Elephants without borders", it was discovered that the African country is being faced with serious poaching issues. This means that contrary to the popular opinion that the elephant population was on the increase, there has been no increase.
People living in rural areas close to the elephants, support the re-introduction of hunting, arguing that the amount of conflict has increased since the ban was introduced. Elephants can be very destructive when they encroach on farmlands and move through villages – destroying crops and sometimes killing people.
Botswana is one of the top 5 safari destinations to see elephants in the African continent. Tourism is Botswana's second largest source of foreign income after diamond mining. This, therefore, raises the question of whether lifting the ban is a wise decision considering tourism is a major source of foreign income. If the ban on poaching is removed, it might have an impact on Botswana's international reputation as a luxury safari destination which could, in turn, result in huge revenue loss.

Are you ready to take your music to the next level? We're ready to help.
We can give your music the personal attention and expertise it deserves.
You supply the talent, we'll take care of the rest.
Freedom is a simple idea, but rarely simple. Helping people create their music feeds the part of me that seeks out freedom; to create a natural, safe place for real music to happen is the true purpose behind StoneRidge.
Nathanael and Sam's journey to develop StoneRidge began with their love for music and many years of playing, and has continued through their experience and skill in the technical aspects of recording music. They are keenly aware that a great recording begins with a great song, and a great performance starts with how the artist feels.
Nathanael Josiah Stone was born and raised in the tiny town of Summers, Arkansas. He is a 3rd generation musician coming from a line of creative artists including musicians, woodworkers, and oil painters.
Sam has a Masters Certification in Production & Guitar from Berklee College of Music. Years of training and perfecting his skills as an engineer has helped shape the hardest projects.
A SPACE TO DO YOUR BEST WORK – Professional quality, flexibility, and creativity.
These are all things you'll receive at our studio, as we've put the time and energy into building noise-isolated, acoustically rich rooms that can cater to a variety of needs. Whether you need guitar, drums, or stunning vocal tracks, we've got the set-up, the gear, and the experience.
Partnering with StoneRidge begins with finding out about you: what you're trying to achieve, what your schedule and budget are like, what sounds you love, and what you want to create.
StoneRidge attracts artists who create the rootsy, natural sounds found in the Northwest Arkansas area, but Nathanael and Sam are equally comfortable in everything from classical music to hip hop, metal, and pop.
Once in the studio, you'll have access to rooms and equipment that are carefully tailored for optimal sound recording. If serving the song and the artist is the heart of the creative process, then the gear and the rooms are the ears and the brain. High-end microphones, preamps, processors and digital recording equipment combine to present your music in the best possible light.
We're proud of the work we do, but we love being able to help musicians make the most of their art. You know what you're able to invest in your music, and we know how to help you bring that vision to life.
We can do everything from a quick voice over, a solo project with session musicians, to full band producing, recording and mastering (and everything in between.) Seasoned pros and first-timers are pleasantly surprised at the value they get for their money with StoneRidge Recording.
Click the button below to get a quote, book an appointment or contact us. You can also email us on our contact page or give us a call at (479) 310-6893, we can talk through the details of your project and quickly give you a great quote.
Stone Ridge Recording pulls you into an intimate, raw session. You can smell the creativity when you walk in. We have done one recording with them. Both Nathaniel and Sam worked with us. They intentionally listened to our ideas and desire for our music. They had patience with us as we were completely new to ALL things in the recording studio. They took time as we had a lot of questions and changes throughout our recording. They helped fill in empty spaces and come up with harmonies. We felt encouraged! Nathaniel, himself, is a very talented man and knowledgeable in music and composition. We definitely recommend trying Stone Ridge out!
Stoneridge and I go way back. During that time, Nathanael has patiently watched my work grow from a single idea to a possible EP and then finally evolve into a full 12 song album. The synergy provided by Nathanael's contacts with pro-level musicians has brought my work up several notches to a more polished and professional level - something I could never do on my own. At Stoneridge I always trust my music will be produced with integrity, attention to detail and that my finished work will testify to the great reputation for excellence Nathanael's team has built over the years.
I looked at another local studio before settling on StoneRidge Recording, but when I talked to Nathanael, I felt very confident in what he was doing and decided to give it a shot. The first time I went to StoneRidge Recording, I knew I'd found my recording home. The atmosphere was peaceful, the place looked fantastic, and the equipment was top notch. Not only is Nathanael friendly and personable, he is a musician himself, and he has a great set of ears. I was 100% pleased with my finished album, and I will definitely be making a second album at StoneRidge Recording. If you are looking for a studio in Northwest Arkansas, look no further.
Nathanael Stone and StoneRidge Recording are my go to spot any time I need to record VO for film projects I'm working on. His attention to detail and the quality of the output are first rate. It's also a pleasure to be there and he's incredibly easy to work with, and the studio is relaxed and comfortable. It's the best of both worlds — quality and service.
I've recorded in several studios with several studio technicians and I believe Nathanael is one of the best. I recorded two of my most recent albums at StoneRidge and I am very pleased with both. I think what sets Nathanael's studio apart and above many others is the amount of time and attention to detail he is willing to put in for his customers. He is truly professional and honest and I would recommend StoneRidge Recording to anyone, regardless of skill level or budget.
We have been privileged to have the opportunity to work with Nathanael and StoneRidge Recording for the past few years on a number of projects. First and foremost, StoneRidge is a professional production facility that always puts the client and their needs first, yet never compromises on quality and excellence. Their friendly staff, experienced engineers, and sound recording environment help them produce commercial quality recordings at a consumer price. If you are looking for recording needs in Northwest Arkansas, look no further than StoneRidge Recording. You won't regret it!

Cruciferous vegetables get their name from their four-petaled cross-shaped flowers, They include bok choy, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, and the nutritional media darling, kale.
While these members of the Brassicaceae family are, admittedly, not among everyone's favorites (particularly children), the significant benefits they deliver make them well-worth eating.
To start, cruciferous vegetables contain vitamin C, beta-carotene, and plenty of fiber. But it's the other compounds these plants provide that are responsible for their most notable benefits.
As of 2013, 132 natural glucosinolates have been documented.1 The glucosinolate glucobrassicin interacts with a plant enzyme known as myrosinase when a vegetable is chopped or chewed. This reaction results in the formation of indole 3 carbinol (I3C), a compound that induces detoxification as well as estrogen metabolism.
Participants whose intake was among the top 20% had a 22% lower risk of dying over a period of several years.
The next time you are tempted to push that boring piece of cauliflower or broccoli to the edge of your plate, remember that appearances can be deceiving. Cruciferous vegetables and their numerous beneficial compounds are among the most exciting plant foods available, and their list of benefits continues to grow. And for the finicky adults who just won't eat their vegetables, broccoli, broccoli sprouts, and other cruciferous plants are available in nutritional formulas in the form of extracts.

A pair of php scripts to enable adinistrator to contact server users based on home directory or context.
These scripts were written for a Netware/OES system and will probably only be useful on those platforms. When we wish to alert users who will be affected by server maintenance it is good to be able to identify automatically all users who will be affected. This utility enables either mail of all users under a given OU (context) in the edirectory tree, or alternatively all users whose home directory environment server is located on a given server. Output can be either a list of email addresses displayed on screen for copy and paste into a chosen email client, or else to email the users directly from a form. The edirectory tree is queried by LDAP, and there is an option in the code to use a separate LDAP directory (which could be any platform) to look up email addresses, provided that the user CN is identical on both systems. It would probably be possible to adapt the code for an AD based system, but how useful this will be would depend on how your AD directory is structured.

The fascinating story of a P40 Kittyhawk aircraft that was lost in the desert for 70 years. It was discovered in 2012 only to disappear again. In 1942 Flight Sergeant Dennis Copping was tasked with flying a P40 Kittyhawk from an RAF Airfield in Egypt to a repair unit. At some point he wandered off course and disappeared into the desert never to be seen again. Quite by chance, 70 years later his aircraft was discovered. In this podcast we talk about its discovery and the course of events which followed.
Andy is joined by Tony Dyer and Tim Cornish for this episode.

Road rage victim chased by driver
Source: This is Black Country
A terrified driver was almost forced off a Halesowen road after a road rage attack involving a stolen car.
The victim was driving along Muckow Hill, on January 29 between 5.50-6.15pm, in a red Vauxhall Vectra when he was approached from behind by a blue Toyota MR2 flashing its lights and sounding his horn.
The offender wound down the window and shouted at the victim to pull over but he refused and a pursuit ensued.
Sergeant Lyn Butler said: "The MR2 passenger held a monkey wrench, leaned out of the window and threatened the victim, hitting the car, causing small dents.
"They followed for about a mile, causing the victim to be involved in a minor accident and we are trying to trace the car, stolen earlier that day from Tamworth-in-Arden."
The victim's ordeal ended when the offenders sped off and police are hunting two white men, aged between 21-24, one with stubble and a spotty face and the other clean shaven.
Anyone who knows the whereabouts of the MR2 registered K670 XJW should call police on 0121 626 8030 or crime stoppers on 0800 555 111.

Q: How to update the todo list item in reactjs? I am using react and redux to write a todolist app.
Here is my initial state:
export const initialState = {
todoList:[
    {
        taskId:1
        task: 'gym'
        completed: true
    },
    {
        taskId:2
        task: 'buy dinner'
        completed: false
    }
]
}

const todoReducer = (state=initialState,action) => {
switch(action.type){
    case UPDATE_TODO:
        return Object.assign({}, state, {
            todoList: state.todoList.map(todo =>
                {
                    return todo.taskId === action.payload.taskId ?
                    Object.assign({},todo, {
                        task: action.payload.task,
                        completed: action.payload.completed
                    }) : todo
                }
            )
        })
    default:
        return state;
}
}
export default todoReducer;

If I want to update the second task to 'buy book' and change completed to true, how can I add code in my reducer? The code above is not working now. Not sure the reason. Could anyone help?

A: Try this:
reducer
const initialState = {
  todoList: [
    {
      taskId: 1,
      task: "gym",
      completed: true
    },
    {
      taskId: 2,
      task: "buy dinner",
      completed: false
    }
  ]
};

const todoReducer = (state = initialState, action) => {
  switch (action.type) {
    case 'UPDATE_TODO':
      const { payload } = action;
      return {
        ...state,
        todoList: state.todoList.map(item => {
          if (item.taskId === payload.taskId) {
            return {
              ...item,
              task: payload.task,
              completed: payload.completed
            };
          } else {
            return item;
          }
        })
      };
    default:
      return state;
  }
};

Unit test:
const output = todoReducer(initialState, {type: 'UPDATE_TODO', payload: {
    taskId: 1,
        task: "newTask",
        completed: true
}});
console.log('output', output);

test output:
output { todoList:
   [ { taskId: 1, task: 'newTask', completed: true },
     { taskId: 2, task: 'buy dinner', completed: false } ] }
