Grave () ist ein Ortsteil der Gemeinde Land van Cuijk in der niederländischen Provinz Noord-Brabant mit 12.482 Einwohnern (Stand 1. Januar 2021). Bis zum 1. Januar 2022 war er eine eigenständige Gemeinde. Ihre Gesamtfläche betrug 28 km², zu ihr gehörten die Kleinstadt Grave und die drei kleinen Bauerndörfer Escharen, Velp und Gassel.

Geografie
Die kleine Hafenstadt Grave liegt im äußersten Nordosten der Provinz an der Maas, südwestlich von Nijmegen. Die John-S.-Thompson-Brücke führt über die Maas nach Wijchen und weiter nach Nijmegen.

Geschichte

Die alte Festungsstadt Grave, die schon um 1250 Stadtrechte besaß, war im 14. Jahrhundert Sitz der Herren von Cuijk oder Kuyk. Johann von Cuijk ließ die Stadt 1285 ummauern. Das strategisch bedeutende Grave war zwischen 1300 und 1550 oft ein Zankapfel zwischen dem Herzogtum Geldern und dem Herzogtum Brabant. Am Anfang des Achtzigjährigen Kriegs wurde die Stadt durch den Herzog von Alba für Spanien in Besitz genommen. 1568 eroberten sie die Truppen des Prinzen von Oranien unter Sander Turck, aber Alba nahm sie noch in demselben Jahr wieder. 1577 verjagten die Bürger die spanische Besatzung, aber 1586 erstürmte der Prinz von Parma die Festung erneut. 1602 fiel Grave schließlich in die Hände von Moritz von Nassau und wurde so Teil der Republik der Niederlande. Der Festungsbauer Menno van Coehoorn entwarf eine neue Befestigung, die trotz erfolgreicher Belagerungen durch französische Truppen 1672 und 1794 bis 1874 bestand.

Während des Holländischen Krieges (1672–1678) kam Grave im Juli 1672 nach mehrmonatiger Belagerung auf zwei Jahre in die Hände der Franzosen. Die Stadt war im Jahre 1674 von einer 4.000 bis 5.000 Mann starken französischen Garnison besetzt. Ab Juli 1674 wurde die Stadt von einer 16.000 Mann starken Streitmacht von Niederländern und Brandenburgern unter der Führung von General Carl von Rabenhaupt belagert. Die Franzosen verfügten über genügend Geschütze sowie einen großen Schießpulvervorrat und verteidigten sich unter der Leitung des Marschalls von Chamilly vehement. Die Belagerung machte kaum Fortschritte, aber im Oktober gingen die Vorräte der Belagerten zur Neige. Nachdem der Fürst Wilhelm III. von Oranien mit frischen Truppen am 9. Oktober zu den Belagerern gestoßen war, einigte man sich am 27. Oktober 1674 auf den freien Abzug der Franzosen. Beide Seiten hatten hohe Verluste zu beklagen; die Belagerten über 2.000, die Belagerer 7.000 bis 8.000 Mann.

Im Lauf des französischen Revolutionskriegs wurde Grave Ende 1794 vom französischen General Jean-Charles Pichegru nach zehnwöchiger Belagerung durch Kapitulation erobert. Am 16. Mai 1814 ergab sich die dortige französische Besatzung den Alliierten.

Grave hatte, vor allem im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert, oft durch Überschwemmungen der Maas zu leiden. Es liegt nicht weit vom Gebiet Beerse Overlaat, das bis etwa 1920 oft absichtlich dem Wasser preisgegeben wurde.

Während des Zweiten Weltkriegs war die Maas-Brücke im Rahmen der Operation Market Garden auf Seiten der Amerikaner von Einheiten der 82. Airborne-Division heftig umkämpft. Weil "Grave" auf Englisch "Grab" bedeutet, wurde es für die Operation kurzerhand in "Graawi" umgetauft.

I think it was the edges of stamps that first attracted me to them. Then came the awareness of old stamps. Man, I have loved old stamps ever since I was a kid. I also loved mailing things. I had pen pals plus. I think that may have started with a girl scout badge or two. I love to look at the stamps on eBay. My favorite haunt is Sea Jay Stamp and Coin. I also have a passion for stamps from foreign lands. I love the Israeli stamps above. I would love to blow up the noise pollution one and post it in my window.

There's a feeling that I will never be able to put words to. It's a feeling that actually makes it hard for me to write about my trip to Australia. The feeling of absolute bliss and travel wanderlust that makes you long for that moment to happen again and again, but it's also the feeling of knowing that it won't ever come back, not in the same way.
I stepped out of the Melbourne airport after 30 hours of traveling to be greeted by a tall Aussie boy who I met last summer in Whistler, spent many warm mountain nights with and had some epic adventures with in Hawaii. He, like myself, prefers to be in the wilderness, and so with nothing but a glance at the city as we sped by – that's where we headed.
If there's one thing I can say for sure about traveling – it's to take the road less traveled. It holds a promise of untouched terrain, minimal traffic and the most authentic experience with a country.
The first beach I laid eyes on was southeast of Melbourne, on Phillip Island. It was stunning and magnificent, and all of the things I wanted to see when I got to Aus.
That was the start of the feeling – the start of the magic.
Victoria is known as the 'granny state' and as we cruised down the highway we were warned by sign after sign to "take a rest or die," (believe me, it said that). Taking the sign's advice, we found our first campsite off a dirt road that we had to 4WD down, as per recco of a camping app that gave reviews for free spots in epic locations.
Pulling up beside sand dunes and hopping out of the truck to watch the sun set behind the trees and lay a canvas of colour over the ocean was my stunning first evening experience in Australia.
– and cue the feeling.
The next few days we spent driving, stopping in odd tiny towns for food and fancy coffees, sleeping by the mouth of the snowy river, cooking jaffles and listening to the fish jump all night, and more 4W drives on remote roads to find epic camp spots.
Waking up beside the ocean, staring up at clouds moving swiftly through the sky, listening to ocean waves land on the shore is quite possibly my favourite way to start a day. Frolicking along beaches where no one else was and admiring oddly shaped shells and creatures that washed up along the rock shoreline. The simple life and the simple things are the good things.
It's the quiet moments that bring me so much joy when I travel – the way the grass blows in the wind, or how the sun hits the water and creates a reflection. It's the smell of trees, or how a cloud reminds me of a unicorn, or the way the sand feels between my toes.
Something about the unknown road and the way less taken… and Australia and the bush – resonated in my soul, it was a life force.
It created an even stronger desire to live simply and appreciate all of the small things that make up the bigger picture. This introduction to the South East Coast of Australia set me up with a pace for my whole trip – sheer simplicity of the present moment.

Who or what is Vape Wild? This new company from Dallas, Texas, is growing quickly. They claim theirs is "one of the fastest growing online vapor companies in the U.S." with a 24-hour turnaround on most orders.
They make e juice with high-quality ingredients from the United States, a wonderful introductory fact in a world where e juice is under scrutiny. Vape Wild also carries cheap e juice. They anticipate and answer your question before you even get the words out: How can they sell vapor juice so cheaply?
Arrangements with wholesale companies allow Vape Wild to cut some excellent deals and spread the love by keeping costs low. It is no trick and they do not sacrifice quality in order to undercut the competition. You could say other e juice is simply overpriced.
Vape Wild also claims to provide an excellent setting to work in. Employees have fun but work hard. They take customer service seriously but still enjoy what they do. This atmosphere spreads over into pleasant exchanges with clients.
Enjoy top-class benefits and service at Vape Wild. Their policy is to provide total customer satisfaction in an attempt to help people do away with tobacco in their lives. Shipping is free for orders above $30. The rewards program allows consumers to earn points when they spend money; points to use in place of money on future orders. Every order over $15 arrives with a free bottle of e juice too.
Sometimes it is simply too hard to pick a single bottle of e juice or even two of them. Stop torturing yourself and buy a sample set: either the Holiday pack or an assortment of any 6 flavors. Both kits cost $16.99 and contain 60 ml of e juice in plastic bottles.
The Holiday pack contains Gingerbread Man, Frappapow, Butterbeer, Pumpkin Spice Latte, Snickerdoodle, and Sugar Cookie e juices. Frappapow tastes like strong cappuccino plus caramel.
Specify your vegetable glycerin/propylene glycol (VG/PG) blend: up to 80% VG or as little as 20%. Pick a nicotine amount between 0 and 24 mg with lots of increments in between so you can slowly cut back on nicotine if you are trying to do that: they don't judge at Vape Wild.
It's a blend of Densuke Watermelon, Wagyu Beef, Red Iranian Saffron, Matsutake Mushrooms, White Alba Truffle, and moon dust. Read the rest of the listing and have a good laugh at the expense of certain pretentious e juice labels before you move on to real e liquids.
Cereal e juices are all the rage right now. Take a spin with Captain Munch, Crunch Berry, or Rice Krisps for $2.99 (10 ml). You can also add an extra 50% of flavoring. Some of the fruits of their labor are (S+C)2 or strawberries and cream, BaeBae Cakes (blackberry and blueberry), Banana Candy, and Blue Blizzard blueberry-menthol.
If you prefer to inhale your drinks, try a Blue Lemon Squeezy, Crème de Menthe, Jamaican Me Crazy (molasses and coconut rum), or Peach Tea. Top tobaccos include Peace Pipe, Reds, and USA Blend. The last one is smooth but full; Reds is also rich and smooth; and Peace Pipe is sweet and light.
You can pick up a few pieces of hardware and accessories at Vape Wild. There are Aspire, Uwell, Joyetech, and Kanger items in stock.
It's always easy to see how much a product costs and what it is: dawdling over an item brings up the Quick View. Look up further information when you click on a product. I love this feature which makes browsing faster.
The Uwell Crown is $29.99. Buy the eGo One starter kit for $39.99. The Kanger Subox Nano costs $56.99. Kanthal wire, Japanese Organic Cotton, replacement coils, and battery cases are also on the list.
Since the e juice mentioned above is made to order, it isn't steeped when customers receive it. In this section, items are pre-steeped and ready to go in their 30-ml amber glass bottles which protect contents from the effects of UV rays.
The six items are (S+C)2, Circus Bear (banana and strawberry custard), Fruit Hoops, On Cloud Custard, Smurf Cake (Blueberry Cream Pie), and Sweet Complexity (loads of fruits and other flavors). The price per bottle is $9.99 except the last one, now on sale for $7.99.
What would make a person ditch their current e juice brand and switch to Vape Wild?
Price is an excellent incentive. Another is the chance to get 10% off your order by subscribing and to receive email coupons. Military personnel receive a discount. Vape Wild has already initiated giveaways; can the next one be far behind?
There is a rewards program designed to keep your custom which supplies 10 points per dollar spent. Once you have accumulated 1,500 points, receive $5 off or save up less than twice that number of points for double the reward. Refer a friend and earn the same rewards for every dollar he or she spends. Buying e juice has never been cheaper: has Vape Wild gotten your attention yet?

LETTER: Railway owner weighs in on Hantsport aboiteau issue
Nova News Now
Published: Sep 10, 2018 at 11:18 a.m.
Updated: Sep 10, 2018 at 11:41 a.m.
To the Editor and the Community of Hantsport,
I write in reference to the August 8th town hall meeting regarding the Halfway River aboiteau. During this meeting, government officials made several claims that misrepresented the railway's position. I am writing to clarify our position on this matter. We are in agreement with the citizens of Hantsport that the Province should fix the washout and aboiteau. In fact, we have been requesting that the Province give attention to this growing problem for over 10 years.
The Deputy Minister of TIR told those gathered at the meeting that the Province cannot fix the aboiteau because it's located on land belonging to the W&H, and that TIR "can't go on private property." First, the aboiteau is embedded in the Halfway River, which per the Water Act and later the Environment Act is exclusively owned by the Province. The river cannot be owned by the railway or any other private individual or business.
Second, if TIR needs to access the railway's adjacent property in order to fix the washout, the railway has always stated, and will state again, that the Province has our full and express permission to access our property for the purposes of fixing the washout of the Halfway River.
We have repeatedly given them permission to access any railway land as is necessary to fix the washout. We requested – on record – that the Government address this very issue and conduct maintenance of the aboiteau (as they do for nearly all of the other 225+ aboiteaux in the Province) over 13 years ago in 2005. Most recently, in a joint meeting with various stakeholders, we offered to participate in a solution to fix the washout and contribute up to $100,000 to the effort, the total cost of which was estimated by an engineering firm to be under $200,000. Instead of working with us to solve the problem, the Province chose to issue an Emergency Directive against me personally with potential penalties of $200,000 per day and 1 year in jail for unsafe rail operations, as we all know the railway is not currently operating. TIR then sent a letter to our insurance carrier stating that TIR is preparing to levy a claim of $7 to $10 million against the railway to fix the problem by raising the 101 connector and rebuilding the bridge. Why would a government wish to spend $7 to $10 million of our tax dollars to fix a $200,000 problem?
We are complying with the Directive even though we are objecting in the Courts to its authority. We have complied with every requirement and our Engineering firm applied for a permit with the Province several months ago which still has yet to be approved as of this writing. We feel that the Province has put us in an impossible, no-win situation by one Provincial department demanding we fix the washout and another Provincial department not granting us a permit to do the work.
We have spent significant amounts of time and money fighting to preserve this line until the need for freight rail returns. It is the right thing to do and is good for preserving business opportunities and jobs for Hantsport and the surrounding communities. We watch global gypsum markets very closely as gypsum has long been the lifeblood of this railway. Over the past 4 years synthetic gypsum production has sharply declined (due to increasing coal power plant closures), and U.S. wallboard producers have rapidly grown imports of natural gypsum. In 2018 gypsum imports have surged by 30%, the largest one-year increase in over a decade, and volumes have begun to surpass pre-recession levels. As many may know, Knauf of Germany is buying USG – a very positive development by a private company which sees the strategic value of these gypsum mines. The Fundy Gypsum mines will soon need to be restarted to meet this surging demand, but they can only be economically viable with freight rail directly serving the port in Hantsport.
We believe our patience will pay off with the revitalization of the railway, the mines, the port, and the return of hundreds of jobs to the region. If the railway is abandoned, any hope for the return of these businesses and jobs will be lost. We are invested in the creation of jobs for the Hantsport community, and wish our representatives would be as well.
We respectfully ask citizens to reach out to your government leaders and ask them to stop trying to fight and effectively expropriate the railway, and instead work with us by fixing the Halfway River washout and help us preserve rail transportation for the economic benefit of Hantsport and the entire Annapolis Valley.

Less Blogging – More Writing!
I will not be posting very often for a while, because I will be focusing on writing RIP and completing the spy novel, set at the beginning of the Cold War, which is set to be published sometime late in 2016 or early 2017.
However, I will still be sending out my quarterly newsletter, so if you want regular updates, subscribe to the Lazlo Newsletter now.
How to Write a Good Book – Post 4. Structure
So Rudolph is desperate to guide the tractor on Christmas eve, but his nose won't glow properly. Erma makes him an enormous apple pie to make him happy and promises him a good night in bed afterwards. She wants that new TV!
How do you you get the structure of your story right?
For your first draft, don't worry about structure. Just get the story down. It will come out chronologically, that is, with the events in the order in which they happen. They may not stay this way, but that's fine for now. Too many writers worry about writing a blockbuster with their first draft. You won't. All writers have to write a second draft, so don't try and avoid it.
Second draft
By now, you will have the basic story written, and hopefully the characters will be starting to interact naturally and seem real. You will also have enough ideas to keep the reader's interest, but the pace may be uneven and the first few pages may seem a bit bland.
All stories, including those of Tolkien, J K Rowling and plays by Shakespeare, have a beginning, a middle and an end. In plays, these are called the first, second and third act. But they can be subdivided. Your story needs to have this basic skeleton:
Optionally, a twist
Ending or denouement
What is a hook?
The hook is really what happens on the first page, and probably in the first paragraph or even the first sentence. It is the bit that hooks a reader into wanting to read the whole story. Research has proved again and again that when a potential reader sees your book description, likes that and then decides to read the first page (as they almost always do in a bookshop, or on Amazon), they will decide within a few seconds, thirty at the very most, whether they want to read the rest or not.
That is all the time you have to really grab them! So make your first paragraph, and if possible, your first sentence, really grab them. Make it unusual, even odd, and make sure it contains some emotive words. For instance, have a look at this first draft of the first sentence of our Rudolph and Santa story:
Santa asked Rudolph to meet with him. He then proceeded to tell Rudolph that he has lost his sleigh, so they will have to hire a van. Rudolph says okay but he has to check with Erma, because he told her he should always check any changes to his working conditions with her. ….
That is okay, but it's not going to make somebody want to read the rest of your book. Let's try again:
The telephone rang in Rudolph's apartment.
"It's for you Rudolph!" his wife, Erma, yells up the stairs. "It's Santa. Says its urgent!"
Rudolph turned away from the bathroom mirror and ran to the phone.
"My nose will never glow properly again!" he told himself.
"Rudolph! Is that you?"
"Yep, it's me Santa."
"I've lost my sleigh! It's Christmas Eve. You know what that means?
"I will have to use a van! That means I don't need you!"
"I can't pull the sleigh? Okay. Wait, Erma is trying to tell me something."
Erma tells her husband. "Your union rules say you have to deliver the present. That means you have to drive the van!"
Now this is much better. First of all there is a lot of dialogue. Readers tend to prefer dialogue. They want the characters to show them what's happening. They don't want the narrator to tell them. It's called 'show, don't tell,' and is an important trick for story-telling. Basically people want to work things out for themselves. Good writing should have at least 50% dialogue, or monologue.
You can see also that there is a sense of urgency and tension with the dialogue. And already we can see that Erma is going to be instrumental in the events that follow.
The Climax
How do you write a climax? First of all, you should work out in your head what sort of climax it is. If its action, then you will need to use many more action words like 'ran,' 'desperately lunged,' 'screamed,' 'screeched to a halt,' etc. Try to use shorter sentences at this part of the story too; it makes for more tension. By now the reader should have had all the insight they need into the main characters' emotions and motivations, so you can spend much less time on this. Focus on the action and make the reader anticipate the moment of climax by building a scene of terror or dramatic tension or scenery.
On the other hand, your moment of climax might simply be psychological. If you are writing an emotional love story, it might be the scene when the man finally proposes to his long lost love. Draw it out. Use lots of warm phrases like 'heart burst with happiness' or 'finally she knew she had found true love.'
In our story it might be that Rudolph delivers all the presents on time and gets a big bonus from Santa. Not only can they get a really good wide-screen TV but he can take Erma on the honeymoon they never quite had (due to heavy work schedules at the time).
A story doesn't need to have a twist, but a twist can leave the reader feeling, 'Wow! That was a great book!' so you might want to try it.
There is not much I can tell you about the twist, except that you should have planned it from the start and given readers small clues that something peculiar might happen. And then when it comes, it must be as big a surprise as possible. They will feel cheated if they either anticipated it, or if there have been no clues whatsoever that something was coming. Leave them gasping or saying "Wow!" and you have a fan for life! A really good example is the twist at the end of The Sixth Sense and. In our story it might be that Rudolph's father was actually a farm reindeer, and so Rudolph turns out to be the best tractor driver ever!
The Ending or Denouement
It might seem a bit obvious to say a story needs an ending, but it does need to be structured. It needs to leave the reader with the message you worked into the story (see the Themes tutorial) and don't forget the character needs to show that they are changed of have learned something. You might also need to explain the twist a bit. But if you know there will be a sequel, you might not want to explain anything, but simply put the twist in the last sentence and leave the reader desperate to read the next book (as I have done in The Synchronicity Code). This is the moment when you want all the strands to come together so that the reader says, "Ah! Ha!". Then they will be satisfied and want to read your next book.
As I mentioned at the beginning of this tutorial, you might need to address other matters of structure during the second draft.
The second draft is really where you take the first editing step; structural editing. If you are paying a very good editor, they will suggest these changes to you. But what is structural editing?
If you have a lot of background and character building to get into the first chapter, it's going to seem slow to some readers. Other readers won't even buy the book, unless they get a feel for how good the climax is going to be. Fortunately, you won't need to worry about this once the reader has read a few of your book. But how do you get round this problem with your first book?
I have found that sometimes it helps to take a preview out from just before the climax and put it in near the beginning or even before Chapter One. For instance, in Ordo Lupus and the Temple Gate, the climax is a confrontation between the main character and his arch enemy. Fortunately for us, he has recorded what happened on a tape-recorder, so his wife can set down the events. This is done in the form of a small insert, in italics, at the beginning of each chapter. In this way, I feed the reader a taste of what is to come later, and make them want to read more. Judging by the reviews, this technique seems to have worked quite well.
Take a Tip From the Movies
Lastly, I have discovered some very useful techniques used by movie makers. You might not want to try these ideas at all, but here is the structure for Gladiator. See how it develops the tension and keeps the watcher glued to the screen? You might want to try something similar with your books, especially if they are action adventures.
A film should start with a scene that shows the main character doing what he/she does best
Then comes the opportunity
And then the new situation

See you next time when we discuss 5. Varying the Pace.
And if you are wondering about the third draft, this will come later, in tutorial 6. Editing.

Birthday: A Poem
I am feeling a bit introspective this week due to the death of a friend recently. So here is a poem.
Why are birthdays so profound?
The years sound out like death bells,
For the lost, those that shot,
their load too soon,
Those that fell, the hours spent waiting,
The messages not sent, the letters not written.
The times you betrayed yourself,
Not wanting to climb the mountain.
I feel lost and found,
At least I know I can wait,
The time has come to do,
Something great for those I love,
I cannot abandon hope,
That I have one last shot, of straight, dark rope,
to pull us through the rotten defile,
and take us over the final mile.

Here is the latest news…
I have just finished editing an illustrated novel for a very talented new writer. It's very exciting work and I can't wait to see the finished product but it is all top secret at the moment. I will announce the book here when it's published.
New Novels
I have the basic framework for two scifi novels in my head and of course there is the second Wartime novel and the third installment of the Ordo Lupus series, both of which are with publishers and agents. I am hoping for to get signed but, if not, I will publish myself. If you want the very latest on release dates, competitions and free offers, sign up for the Newsletter. The next issue will go out in late September or early October.
It's no secret that I am working hard on a new novel. It's a romance set between the end of WWII and the Korean War and a work of literary nature, a genre I have only dabbled with in the past with The Ice Boat. The genre is highly competitive and readers expect an extremely high standard. Think Shakespeare, Dickens, Thomas Hardy, The Brontes, George Elliot, Jane Austin, D H Lawrence and Harper Lee and you will see what I mean. I don't know who would qualify for that from 21st Century writers. Answers in your comments please! Best answer will get a free copy of my next published novel!

North Korea – The Korean War
Kim Jong-un – Supreme Leader of North Korea
First of all, because this is a post which includes information about air warfare, I would like to extend my heartfelt sympathies to the families of victims from the terrible Shoreham Air Show crash on Saturday.
I am working hard on a new book. I don't want to reveal the plot but I will give you a clue:
With all the tension between North Korea and South Korea at the moment, it's sad for me to think that my father fought for the United Nations trying to push back the oppressive North Korean regime when it invaded the South in 1950. Lim Jong-un has taken over from his father now but sadly, the regime still starves its citizens and shakes its fist at other countries. Of course the conflict has a complex history and if you don't know much about it, here is what wikipedia says about the Korean War:
The Korean War (in South Korean Hangul: 한국전쟁, Hanja: 韓國戰爭, Hanguk Jeonjaeng, "Korean War"; in North Korean Chosungul: 조국해방전쟁, Joguk Haebang Jeonjaeng, "Fatherland Liberation War"; 25 June 1950 – 27 July 1953)[31][a][33] was a war between North and South Korea, in which a United Nations force led by the United States of America fought for the South, and China fought for the North, which was also assisted by the Soviet Union. The war arose from the division of Korea at the end of World War II and from the global tensions of the Cold War that developed immediately afterwards.
Here are some interesting facts about the Korean War (1950 – 1953):
The Korean War was the first military action of the Cold War.
There are still more than 7,000 U.S. soldier missing in action from the war.
Although the British Army was present on the ground, the RAF had no squadrons based in Korea. They did however suffer casualties because pilots exchanged with pilots from the United States Air Force (USAF) and the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), both having squadrons present.
The North Korean pilots flew many MiG-15s, generally reckoned to be the best jet fighter at the time. I outclassed by a large margin the RAF's best jet fighter, the Gloster Meteor, which may have been a reason the RAF did not want to send its squadrons there.
The RAAF did however send it's own Meteors, making its pilots sitting ducks.
Even the USAF's best fighter, the F-86 Sabre, was no match for the faster and more agile MiG-15 for the first year of the War. Later updates allowed the American fighter to deal with the Russian jet on a more equal basis.
The Russians denied they had their own pilots in Korea but it is highly likely that they did. None were ever take prisoner to prove this.
The MiG-15 used a copy of the Rolls Royce designed Nene engine. The British had give the Russians 25 Nene engines in 1946 as a political gesture of good will, believing it would take the Russians too long to copy the engine for them to be threat. The Russians tricked the British and worked out the secrets so fast that they had the MiG-15 flying within 2 years. It went on to be the most successful jet fighter of all time, thanks mainly to the British-designed engine, while the British never used the engine themselves in large numbers. Some MiG-15s are still in service today with the The Korean People's Army Air Force (North Korean air force).
The Korean War took a heavy toll—up to a total of 5 million dead, wounded, or missing, and half of them civilians.
North Koreans who were born after the Korean War in the late 1950s are on average about 2 inches shorter than South Koreans.
During the Korean War, the South Korean government provided women for its troops. According to one account, the government standard of performance for such women was to service at least 29 men a day. Intercourse should not last longer 30 minutes so the prostitute could move on to other men and make the maximum daily profit. There is heated and ongoing debate about how much the U.S. military was involved in providing prostitutes for its men.
The U.S. Army used approximately 1,500 dogs during the Korean War and 4,000 in the Vietnam War.
There were 7,245 American POWs during the Korean War. Of these, 2,806 died while in captivity and 4,418 were eventually returned to military control. Twenty-one refused repatriation.
An estimated 86,300 Korean War veterans are women, making up 7% of the estimated number of all female veterans.
According to the 1990 Census, of the 4.9 million Korean War veterans in the U.S., 4.5 million (92%) were white; 339,400 (7%) were African American; 30,400 (less than 1%) were American Indian, Eskimo, or Aleut; 39,300 (less than 1%) were Pacific Islander; and 35,000 were of other races. There were an estimated 133,500 Hispanic (who may be of any race) Korean War veterans.
The world's first all-jet dogfight occurred ruing the Korean War on September 8, 1950.
The United States still keeps troops in South Korea in case North Korea ever attempts to invade again.
The capital of South Korea, Seoul, changed hands four times during the Korean War. It was first captured by the North Koreans on June 28, 1950, and then retaken by UN forces that September. The Chinese seized the city in January 1951, but gave it up two months later.
One of the most brutal battles of the Korean War was the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, fought from November 27 to December 13, 1950. What made it different from other fierce fighting was the intensely cold and bitter weather. Temperatures dropped to -54° F. One survivor of the battle designed a bumper sticker that read: "Once Upon a Time Hell Froze Over. We Were There.
Up until WW II, Korea had been one nation, known as the Korean Peninsula, and was part of Japan. After WW II, the winners of the war divided it into two countries. The Soviet Union took the northern half, and the U.S. took control of the southern half. It was divided at the 38th parallel.
In occupied areas of North Korea, the North Korean Army executed every educated person (such as those who held education, government, and religious positions) who could lead a resistance against North Korea.
One of the very few films that deals seriously with the Korean War's political causes is The Year of Living Dangerously, starring Mel Gibson

Sometimes advertisements (ads) are unavailable to watch in games. We're working to make sure ads are always available to all our players.
What benefits do ads have?
Can I still get benefits without ads?
You can! You can still earn currency in other parts of games, which can also reduce your wait times.
Why are the ads missing?
This happens because of problems with network connections, ad providers, and regional outages.
We can't guarantee that there will always be ads available because some ad providers target certain devices, regions, and platforms. They might do this to promote a certain product. If your device is older, or not as popular as the latest flagship models, you may get a lower amount of ads.
We're working to make sure that ads are available for all players everywhere.
Since we rely on advertisers to promote their products, the number of ads may seem inconsistent as we work through making them available to everyone.

Reports | AI for Good, Economics | January 30, 2020
The Windfall Clause: Distributing the Benefits of AI
Report written by Cullen O'Keefe, Peter Cihon, et al.
Published by The Future of Humanity Institute, University of Oxford. 65 pages.
Over the long run, technology has improved the human condition. Nevertheless, the economic progress from technological innovation has not arrived equitably or smoothly. While innovation often produces great wealth, it has also often been disruptive to labor, society, and world order. In light of ongoing advances in artificial intelligence ("AI"), we should prepare for the possibility of extreme disruption, and act to mitigate its negative impacts. This report introduces a new policy lever to this discussion: the Windfall Clause.
What is the Windfall Clause? The Windfall Clause is an ex ante commitment by AI firms to donate a significant amount of any eventual extremely large profits. By "extremely large profits," or "windfall," we mean profits that a firm could not earn without achieving fundamental, economically transformative breakthroughs in AI capabilities. It is unlikely, but not implausible, that such a windfall could occur; as such, the Windfall Clause is designed to address a set of low-probability future scenarios which, if they come to pass, would be unprecedentedly disruptive. By "ex ante," we mean that we seek to have the Clause in effect before any individual AI firm has a serious prospect of earning such extremely large profits. "Donate" means, roughly, that the donated portion of the windfall will be used to benefit humanity broadly.
Motivations: Properly enacted, the Windfall Clause could address several potential problems with AI-driven economic growth. The distribution of profits could compensate those rendered faultlessly unemployed due to advances in technology, mitigate potential increases in inequality, and smooth the economic transition for the most vulnerable. It provides AI labs with a credible, tangible mechanism to demonstrate their commitment to pursuing advanced AI for the common global good. Finally, it provides a concrete suggestion that may stimulate other proposals and discussion about how best to mitigate AI-driven disruption.
Limitations: There remain significant unresolved issues regarding the exact content of an eventual Windfall Clause, and the way in which it would be implemented. We intend this report to spark a productive discussion, and recommend that these uncertainties be explored through public and expert deliberation. Critically, the Windfall Clause is only one of many possible solutions to the problem of concentrated windfall profits in an era defined by AI-driven growth and disruption. In publishing this report, our hope is not only to encourage constructive criticism of this particular solution, but more importantly to inspire open-minded discussion about the full set of solutions in this vein. In particular, while a potential strength of the Windfall Clause is that it initially does not require governmental intervention, we acknowledge and are thoroughly supportive of public solutions.
Next steps: We hope to contribute an ambitious and novel policy proposal to an already rich discussion on this subject. More important than this policy itself, though, we look forward to continuously contributing to a broader conversation on the economic promises and challenges of AI, and how to ensure AI benefits humanity as a whole. Over the coming months, we will be working with the Partnership on AI and OpenAI to push such conversations forward.

We'd all like to think road safety messages have started to sink in for Australian drivers. The majority follow the rules by sticking to the speed limit, obeying traffic signs and ignoring phones and other hand-held devices while behind the wheel.
However, a shocking stat released by finder.com.au shows that 70% of Aussies have admitted to risky activities while behind the wheel, such as texting and driving with their eyes closed. Distracted driving is one of the most common contributing factors to road accidents in Australia, which have a total economic impact of around $27 billion per year.
But distracted driving is not the only thing leading to auto insurance claims and losses, according to a news.com.au report. For those drivers who do follow the rules, there are still a number of obscure things that could catch them out and result in costly, potentially catastrophic, road incidents.
Ignoring the rules when it comes to train crossing could be a potentially fatal error of judgement. Data released by the Australian Rail Track Corporation shows there are an average of 166 collisions between trains and people or vehicles, including 35 fatalities, every single year in Australia.
There are strict rules to protect people, some of which have caught drivers out. For example, if you cross after a train has passed but the lights are still flashing then you could be slapped with nearly an $800 fine. Fines vary between states but are generally between $200 and $500, alongside a number of demerit points. All such fines and penalties have an impact on auto insurance premiums.
In certain states, it's illegal to display signs on cars because they're seen as a distraction to other drivers, and perpetrators will be fined an average of $50. Car insurance expert at finder.com.au, Bessie Hassan, said that although fines like this may seem over the top, they're there to reduce road accidents.
All drivers must stop for at least three seconds at a stop sign before proceeding. It's an easy rule to break, and the fines and penalties can be quite stinging. For example, in NSW you can be fined $337 and three demerit points for not stopping for long enough at a stop sign.
It will also cost a driver three demerit points in Western Australia and Victoria, and fines of $300 and $322 respectively. ACT has the highest fine at $419 with three demerit points, followed by South Australia at $419 and three points.


Evie has officially turned five. She has been talking about her birthday forever and what to have as her special birthday supper. In the end she chose cheese pizza and sprinkle cake. I made Sally's funfetti cake (www.sallysbakingaddiction.com). Check out her website she has a lot of yummy treats, we follow her religiously for recipes and the delicious pictures, Evie has a whole list of what she wants to make from there, most involve sprinkles. Sally loves sprinkles and I am pretty sure that when Evie is an adult she too will still love sprinkles.
The cake turned out great and was even better a day or two after, got a little moister. If I make that cake again, I will definitely do it a day or two ahead of time.
Here is the cake, we covered it nonpareils but left the number 5 un-nonpareiled. Is that even a word?
There are even sprinkles inside the cake, double the sprinkle concentration!
She got her own binoculars for birdwatching, some new books and more of her favourite coloured pencils to add to her collection.
The birthday party with her friends was also a lot of fun. It was at a cooking school and the children, in little chef hats and little aprons made pizza, fruit snacks and decorated cupcakes. Everyone had a great time, it was lots of fun and extremely cute.

Queensway Clean Up Makes Progress
By Elaine Macdonald-Meisner
Friday, October 14, 2016 @ 6:01 AM
Prince George RCMP Superintendent Warren Brown outlines crime stat comparisons – photo 250News
Prince George, B.C. – It has been 8 months since the Prince George RCMP launched what it calls the "Queensway Initiative" a concerted effort to reduce the crime that has been happening in the area of 17th and Queensway area of Prince George and it is having an impact.
At a meeting last night, RCMP Superintendent told a group of residents of the area, that police are making progress. Between January and the end of September this year, there were 539 calls for service to the area. That's up from 421 calls for service to the area during the same time frame last year, and down slightly from the 557 such calls in 2014. In 2013 during the first nine months of that year there had been 458 calls.
So while the number of calls to the area are up 28%, Supt. Brown would like to think that is because residents now feel more comfortable in making those calls "When you think something is just not right, when it makes your heart beat faster or your hair stand up, call 9-1-1" Brown added it's the calls that will help resolve the issues in the neighbourhood "We don't know what we don't know".
The good news is, with increased patrols, new programs such as the Car 60 program which deals with calls involving mental health issues, restorative justice and a number of other initiatives involving other stakeholders and agencies in the City, crime in the 17th and Queensway area is trending down. "I am still not content" said Supt. Brown "This is still a high crime rate."
Violent crime in that area of Prince George is down 50%, property crime is also down, having dropped by 36% . There have been fewer thefts from vehicles, the number of break and enters has dropped, but possession of stolen property charges have increased and drug offences have more than doubled but that is likely the result of a special enforcement project.
Residents expressed gratitude for the extra effort, noting they have seen more police patrols and police presence in the past few months, and offered praise to a young Constable Monette who joined in a game of hoops with some neighbourhood youth "Those boys thought it was really cool" said one resident, while another noted "it made me feel safe as a mom."
Yet, one woman told Supt. Brown how she won't let her 14 year old daughter walk to the 7-11 at 17th and Queensway after dark, and another said that while she has a couple of mid sized dogs, she is afraid to walk them on the street in the evening . Supt. Brown advised her to call police "We have four dogs, and they're big, and we will walk them down your street."
The residents detailed a number of ongoing issues such as spent needles, bike couriers who whiz down the alley ways "like hummingbirds" , open drug dealing and shady characters carrying new T.V's sneaking into apartment buildings at all hours of the night.
It is clear the work is far from over, and while the Superintendent says he doubts the area will ever be crime free, residents were appreciative of the efforts to not only deal with the issues in the area, but Supt. Brown's commitment to keep them engaged and involved. He called on the neighbourhood to keep the lines of communication open, "It's the squeaky wheel that gets the grease" and closed the session with a promise "We won't neglect you."

4 Most Expensive Vinyl Records
Mathew Tucker
The most expensive vinyl records are interesting because each has its own set of fans and their own set of price ranges. Depending on how much you're willing to spend on each record, you can have an estimate based on the following most expensive vinyl records:
1. The Beatles' White Album
It has long been considered that The Beatles' White Album's original vinyl record as an incredibly rare item, and in fact, it's even considered a collector's item now. The high demand for the Beatles (White Album) itself is one of the main reasons for such price.
When it comes to how much the vinyl record of The Beatles (White Album) is, the answer varies. One is to consider the different places where the album came out.
The original UK release was one-sided, which made the price increase quite significant.
The second album to come out was a double-disc, which had a bonus disc on the bottom, which contained some live songs that had previously not been on the original release.
Finally, a third album came out with three sides and a bonus disc, which added a song with no lyrics and was known as "Daydream Believer."
To give you an insight, Beatles drummer Ringo Starr auctioned his copy for USD 790,000. Now you can imagine how much the other copies are.
2. Elvis Presley's My Happiness
The vinyl record of Elvis Presley's My Happiness is a recording that has become one of the most popular recordings in history, with its famous "Happiness is a Warm Gun" chorus. It was recorded over two days, and Elvis ended up playing the entire song without a break in between.
The price of the record can be as high as $500. It's worth spending that much if you're genuinely interested in a one of a kind record that has excellent quality and authenticity. Even though the cost of such records aren't cheap, they're an investment that'll last for decades.
3. John Lennon & Yoko Ono's Double Fantasy
The vinyl record of Double Fantasy is one of those rare and hard to find records.
There are several different reasons why the vinyl record of Double Fantasy is so expensive. The first reason is that the master recording is a rarity. Thus, making the actual recording hard to find.
The second reason the vinyl record of Double Fantasy is so expensive is the number of different colors pressed, and even more than that, the sheer number of copies made. There are two separate versions of the song, and since the song has three different sections and four other songs, there are six various vinyl records that have the music from each one of the sections.
It's estimated that over forty thousand people have bought all the different versions of the song.
4. Frank Wilson's Do I Love You
There are many reasons why the vinyl record of Frank Wilson's Do I Love You is costly is that the original records have the original master tapes of the album. With such, the master tapes aren't altered, unlike its other cheaper copies.
Another reason for its cost is that the vinyl record has different parts. It has a complete instrumental track with a violin, piano, drums, and strings placed in between the songs with lyrics and soundtracks. As a result, the original vinyl record of the album is considered a collector's item.
The cost of vinyl records can be expensive, depending on its originality and rarity. Especially if it's tagged as a collector's item, expect that its price is high.
If you can't afford these collector's items, then there are cheaper copies with quality. You only need to look for a good store that offers such. Nowadays, you can even enjoy listening to these pieces using music streaming services.
