AMPERE, Andre-Marie; Jöns Jacob von BERZELIUS; Michael FARADAY; Auguste de la RIVE; Félix SAVARY.
Recueil d'observations electro-dynamiques.
Paris: Crochard, 1822 [i.e., 1823].
A beautiful copy bound in contemporary red morocco of the definitive version of this continually evolving collection of important memoirs on electrodynamics by Ampère (1775-1836) and others over the period 1820-1823, beginning with his 'Premier Mémoire', the "first great memoir on electrodynamics" (DSB). "Ampère had originally intended the collection to contain all the articles published on his theory of electrodynamics since 1820, but as he prepared copy new articles on the subject continued to appear, so that the fascicles, which apparently began publication in 1821, were in a constant state of revision, with at least five versions of the collection appearing between 1821 and 1823 under different titles" (Norman). Some of the 25 pieces in the collection are published here for the first time, others appeared earlier in journals such as Arago's Annales de Chimie et de Physique and the Journal de Physique. But even the articles that had appeared earlier are modified for the Receuil, or have additional notes by Ampère, to reflect his progress and changes in viewpoint in the intervening period. Many of the articles that are new to the present work concern Ampère's reaction to Faraday's first paper on electromagnetism, 'On some new electro-magnetical motions, and on the theory of magnetism', originally published in the 21 October 1821 issue of the Quarterly Journal of Science, which records the first conversion of electrical into mechanical energy and contains the first enunciation of the notion of a line of force. Faraday's work on electromagnetic rotations would lead him to become the principal opponent of Ampère's mathematically formulated explanation of electromagnetism as a manifestation of currents of electrical fluids surrounding 'electrodynamic' molecules. The Receuil contains the first French translation of Faraday's paper followed by extended notes by Ampère and his brilliant student Félix Savary (1797-1841). Ampère's reaction to Faraday's criticisms are the subject of several of the articles in the second half of the Receuil. The collection also includes Ampère's important response to a letter from the Dutch physicist Albert van Beek (1787-1856), in which "Ampère argued eloquently for his model, insisting that it could be used to explain not only magnetism but also chemical combination and elective affinity. In short, it was to be considered the foundation of a new theory of matter. This was one of the reasons why Ampère's theory of electrodynamics was not immediately and universally accepted. To accept it meant to accept as well a theory of the ultimate structure of matter itself" (DSB). The volume concludes with a résumé of a paper read by Savary to the Académie des Sciences on 3 February 1823, and a letter from Ampère to Faraday, dated 18 April 1823 (which does not appear in the Table of Contents), showing that this definitive version of the Receuil was in fact published in 1823. Only three other copies of this work listed by ABPC/RBH.
Provenance: Marcel Gompel (1883-1944) (ex-libris on front paste-down – Répertoire général des ex-libris français: G1896). A Jewish professor at the Collège de France, Gompel worked in the Laboratoire d'Histoire naturelle des corps organisés from 1922 to 1940, under the direction of André Mayer. In World War II he became a hero of the French resistance and was finally tortured and executed on orders from Klaus Barbie, the chief of the Gestapo in Lyon. When Barbie came to trial, the prosecutors used Gompel's case as a particularly clear and egregious example of his guilt of crimes against humanity. His superb library was stolen by the Nazis.
The collection opens with the 'Premier Mémoire' [1] (numbering as in the list of contents, below), first published in Arago's Annales at the end of 1820. This was Ampère's "first great memoir on electrodynamics" (DSB), representing his first response to the demonstration on 21 April 1820 by the Danish physicist Hans Christian Oersted (1777-1851) that electric currents create magnetic fields; this had been reported by François Arago (1786-1853) to an astonished Académie des Sciences on 4 September. In this memoir Ampère "demonstrated for the first time that two parallel conductors, carrying currents traveling in the same direction, attract each other; conversely, if the currents are traveling in opposite directions, they repel each other" (Sparrow, Milestones, p. 33).
The first quantitative expression for the force between current carrying conductors appeared in Ampère's less well-known 'Note sur les expériences électro-magnétiques' [2], which originally appeared in the Annales des Mines. Ampère stated, without proof, that, if two infinitely small portions of electric current A and B, with intensities g and h, separated by a distance r, set at angles α and β to AB and in directions which created with AB two planes at an angle γ with each other, the action they exert on each other is
gh (sin α sin β sin γ + k cos α cos β)/r2,
where k is an unknown constant which he stated could 'conveniently' be taken to be zero. This last assumption was an error which significantly retarded his progress in the next two years before he stated correctly that k = − 1/2 in his article [13], published for the first time in the Receuil. This article comprised 'notes' on a lecture [12] delivered to the Institut in April 1822 in which he surveyed experimental work carried out by himself and others since 1821 (he also published for the first time there the words 'electro-static' and 'electro-dynamic'). The full theoretical and experimental proof of the correct value of k appeared in two articles in Arago's Annales in 1822, [19] and [20], in an article by Savary [22], and in experiments with de la Rive [17] (see below).
On 20 January 1821 Ampère performed an experiment together with César-Mansuète Despretz (1798-1863) intended to support his own theory of the interaction of electric currents against a rival theory of Jean-Baptiste Biot (1774-1862) and Félix Savart (1791-1841) presented to the Académie on 30 October 1820. This was reported in article [21], the first "experimentally based semi-axiomatic presentation of electrodynamics" (Hofmann, p. 316). A small cylindrical magnet was placed at the same distance from two perpendicular current carrying wires. The Biot-Savart theory predicted that the magnet would experience no net force; Ampère's theory predicted that the magnet would experience a non-zero torque from the nearby currents. But when Ampère and Despretz performed the experiment the magnet did not move (p. 343). This defeat, together with illness and fatigue, caused Ampère to suspend his electrodynamical researches for several months. What little energy he could muster for electrodynamics was mainly devoted to correspondence.
According to Ampère, magnetic forces were the result of the motion of two electric fluids; permanent magnets contained these currents running in circles concentric to the axis of the magnet and in a plane perpendicular to this axis. By implication, the earth also contained currents which gave rise to its magnetism. It was not long, however, before Auguste Fresnel (1788-1827) pointed out to his friend Ampère that his theory had several difficulties, notably the fact that the supposed currents in magnets should have a heating effect which was not observed. Fresnel suggested that the electric currents circulated around each molecule, rather than around the axis of the magnet. In January 1821 Ampère publicly accepted Fresnel's idea.
Not everyone was convinced of the identity of electricity and magnetism, however. Humphry Davy (1778-1829) expressed doubts in a letter to Ampère of 20 February 1821 [7]. Ampère's idea of magnetism created by circulating electric currents was also in direct opposition to a theory put forward by Johann Joseph von Prechtl (1778-1854), and supported by the great Swedish chemist Jöns Jacob Berzelius (1779-1848), according to which electromagnetism was 'transverse magnetism' – whereas Ampère eliminated magnetism and showed how all the phenomena could be accounted for by the action of two electric fluids, Prechtl and Berzelius reduced electromagnetism to magnetic action. Berzelius expressed this view in his letter [3]; Ampère responded in a letter to Arago [4].
In April 1821 Ampère wrote to Paul Erman (1764-1851), professor of physics at the University of Berlin and perpetual secretary of Berlin's Royal Academy, in response to Erman's Umrisse zu den physischen verhältnissen des von Herrn Professor Oersted entdeckten elektro-chemischen Magnetismus (Berlin, 1821). Ampère declared that his electric theory of magnetism was established "as solidly as a physical theory can be, since, in only admitting it at first as a hypothesis, it serves to predict and make known in advance all the magnetic phenomena formerly known, those which M. Oersted has discovered, and the new properties whose existence in voltaic conductors I have made known. When one finds such an agreement between the facts and the hypothesis from which one started, can one recognize it merely as a simple hypothesis? Is it not, on the contrary, a truth founded on incontestable proofs?" In the same letter Ampère calmly harvested Erman's experimental discoveries as further confirmatory evidence. "The observations described in the memoir which you have been so good as to send me are all the more new proofs of it. For, if I am not mistaken, they could all be predicted according to the theory in which magnets are considered to be assemblages of what I call electric currents" (Hofmann, pp. 277-8). Erman's experiments influenced Ampère's investigations of induction in July 1821, in which he very nearly anticipated Faraday's landmark discovery of electromagnetic induction a decade later (see below).
Ampère again stressed the 'identity' of electricity and magnetism in a lecture to the Académie on 2 April 1821 [5]. He also expressed his views on the nature of magnetism in a letter to Gaspard de la Rive (1770-1834) [8]. "Perhaps in an attempt to accommodate the positivistic inclinations of some of his Parisian colleagues, or to avoid the adoption of hypotheses, Ampère normally wrote on electricity and magnetism in a phenomenological vein, eschewing noumenal questions. But there were exceptions: [an] example occurred in a letter of 15 May 1821 to the Swiss physicist Gaspard de la Rive, which was published in the recipient's journal Bibliotheque universelle. Adopting the two-fluid theory of electricity then prevalent in France, he spoke, rather in passing, of "the series of decompositions and of recompositions of the fluid formed by the reunion of the two electricities of which one regards electrical currents as composed" (p. 122). Thus at this time Ampère's aetherian framework was based on electric current regarded as de- and recomposition of fluid(s), and magnetism construed in terms of these currents rotating around each magnetic molecule" (Grattan-Guinness, p. 927).
As far as Ampère was concerned, "The physical theory of electrodynamics was now complete. Given the concepts of the ether and the electromotive force of matter as Ampère had formulated them, all the observed effects could be explained; not only explained, but subjected to mathematical analysis. The combination was a potent one and the accuracy of Ampère's calculations and the depths of his insight led many to embrace his theory. Ampère, however, was not satisfied with merely creating a model of electrodynamic action. By 1821 he was intoxicated by his vision and convinced that his electrodynamic molecules really existed. They must, then, also explain other areas of physics and chemistry.
"In his 'Answer to the Letter of M. van Beck' [i.e., van Beek] [11], published in October 1821, Ampère turned his attention once again to the problem of chemical combination … What determined whether a reaction would take place and if so, with what violence, was the electrical condition of the participating molecules. To explain the mechanism of chemical combination, Ampère had recourse to another analogy; molecules were not only like voltaic piles, but also like Leyden jars. The facts of electrochemistry proved "that the particles of substances are essentially in two opposed electrical states." In order to preserve its electrical neutrality, each molecule, therefore, decomposed the ambient ether to attract the electricity of the opposite sign. Ampère did not say if this was why each molecule was surrounded by electric currents but his use of the Leyden jar analogy would appear to rule out this possibility. The molecule, presumably, had both an inherent electrical charge and electric currents associated with it. It was the inherent static charge that caused chemical combination; the resultant combination of the two electricities gave rise to heat and light and both the material and energy relations of reactions could be understood in terms of the same mechanism … There can be no doubt that he took his own theory seriously as a general theory of matter. Nor was he alone in this. During the 1820's Becquerel in Paris and Auguste de la Rive (1801-73) in Geneva used the electrodynamic model in their researches in electrochemistry" (Williams, pp. 150-1).
Late in 1821, however, Ampère's satisfaction with his theory of magnetism was seriously challenged by Faraday's discovery of electromagnetic rotation, a development which thrust Faraday immediately into the first rank of European scientists. "In the autumn he had to face a powerful criticism from Faraday, whose paper 'On some new electro-magnetical motions' came out in a French translation [9] in Arago's Annales, soon after its appearance in a London journal. A seminal paper in Faraday's contributions to the topic, it announced that continuous rotation could occur if a pivoted cylindrical magnet moved around a fixed wire, and also if a pivoted wire moved round a fixed magnet. In October he sent to Ampère and [Jean-Nicolas-Pierre] Hachette (1769-1834) one of his pieces of apparatus, and Ampère demonstrated its working to the Académie in November.
"From the theoretical point of view, the chief challenge to Ampère's view was Faraday's conviction that such motions could not be explained by theories based on inter-molecular forces. Faraday's alternative, drawn from this and other experiments, was to give preference to curved 'lines of force'; but Ampère was anxious to preserve his own approach. Accordingly, when the translation was prepared, he had a set of appendicial notes [10] made by a new helper, Félix Savary, polytechnicien of the promotion of 1815 and thus one of Ampère's old students, and in 1821 principally a geographer by profession. Ampère added his name to these notes to indicate his agreement with them. In his second note Savary rejected Faraday's implicit claim in the paper that the rotatory motion could be taken as a 'primitive fact' in electromagnetic phenomena, and in the next note he showed how that motion could be explained in Ampère's terms" (Grattan-Guinness, p. 928).
"In his original article describing the discovery of a continuous rotation of one extremity of a current-carrying wire around a magnet, as well as the rotation of one extremity of a magnet around a current-carrying wire, Faraday stated the following: "Having succeeded thus far, I endeavoured to make a wire and a magnet revolve on their own axis by preventing the rotation in a circle round them, but have not been able to get the slightest indications that such can be the case; nor does it, on consideration, appear probable." Ampère, on the other hand, considered that this new kind of motion might be produced in the laboratory. He was also the first to obtain it experimentally. He communicated his discovery to the Academy of Sciences of Paris in 7 January 1822 [14]. In order to obtain continuous rotation of a magnet around its axis, Ampère initially floated it in mercury by the help of a counterweight in its lower extremity. By closing the circuit, a constant current flowed vertically downwards through the upper extremity of the magnet, leaving laterally along its lower portion and going through the mercury. When this constant current was flowing through the magnet, it rotated around its axis relative to the ground" (Assis & Chaib, p. 123). Ampère wrote to Faraday in April 1823 describing these electromagnetic rotation experiments [24].
In the letter to van Beek [11] described earlier, Ampère described an experiment, suggested by Fresnel, to decide whether in a ring of copper macroscopic currents would be induced by a nearby coil or magnet. A first trial in July 1821 produced a negative result which fitted well into Ampère's theory of molecular currents. When he repeated the experiment with a more powerful magnet in August 1822, however, he indeed obtained an effect, and realized that this was the induction of currents by magnets. But as a consequence of his struggle with Faraday's rotations, he concentrated on his magnetic theory. Although the positive result of the induction experiment again opened the way for both interpretations of magnetization, it did not provide any positive hint concerning which of them should be preferred. Thus Ampère declared only that the result did not refer to his theory, and decided not to pursue it further. A decade later, when Faraday again discovered electromagnetic induction and gained great publicity, Ampère bitterly complained about his former disregard of the result.
Between 1821 and 1822, Gaspard de la Rive, van Beek and Faraday performed some experiments showing that the poles of a cylindrical magnet are not located exactly at the extremities of the magnet, as was predicted by Ampère's theory. These experiments forced Ampère to modify his conception of microscopic currents. In a letter addressed to Gaspard de la Rive, dated 12 June 1822 [15], Ampère included [a figure which] presents the equilibrium configuration of the microscopic currents around the particles of the magnet, due to the interaction of all microscopic currents. That is, due to the collective interactions between the small current-carrying loops, the planes of these molecular currents should no longer remain orthogonal to its magnetic axis … This final conception of molecular currents presented by Ampère, with their planes inclined relative to the axis of an uniformly magnetized bar, is accepted in its essence up to the present time" (Assis & Chaib, p. 105).
As described earlier, Ampère had concluded in his article [13] that the constant k in his law for the force between current carting wires should be equal to −1/2. This implied, however, that two collinear and parallel current elements should repel one another when both currents flowed in the same direction towards the same point in space. Sceptical about this prediction, he performed with Auguste de la Rive, in September 1822, in Geneva, an experiment to test it [reported in [17], pp. 284-5] … This experiment has received several names in the literature: "Ampère's floating wire experiment", "Ampère's hairpin experiment" and "Ampère's bridge experiment." Ampère himself gave a very clear description: "Two very interesting electro-magnetic experiments have lately been made by M. Ampère, in the laboratory of M. de la Rive at Geneva. M. Ampère had been induced, from his mathematical investigations, to expect a repulsion between two portions of an electrical current passing in the same direction, and in the same right line, or that every part of an electrical current would repel the other parts, a result which may be comprehended by conceiving an endeavour in the current to elongate itself. The experiment which M. Ampère has contrived to illustrate this action of the current consisted of dividing a dish into two parts by a division across the middle, and filling each division with mercury, a piece of wire was then bent into the form of the letter U, but the curved part was bent to one side, so that the two limbs of the wire might lie on the mercury one on each cell, and the bent part pass over the division without touching it. The wire was covered with silk, except a small portion at each extremity, by which the communication was established with the mercury" (Assis & Chaib, p. 145). "Ampere and Auguste de La Rive reported that as soon as a current was sent through the circuit, and regardless of the direction of this current, the originally stationary floating wire was propelled across the mercury pool away from the terminals connected to the power source. Ampere immediately attributed this phenomenon to repulsive forces between collinear pairs of current elements, that is, pairs in which one member is an element of the current in the mercury flowing between the bare end of the wire and the adjacent terminal, and the other is an element of one of the linear segments of the wire. Interpreted in these terms, the experiment represented a striking confirmation of the prediction Ampère had made to the Académie three months earlier. The importance Ampère ascribed to this demonstration was promptly reflected in the way he publicized it. For example, in sharp contrast to his ambiguous and incomplete descriptions of induction, the text he composed for his verbal report to the Académie includes a thorough and accurate account of the floating-wire demonstration" (Hofmann, pp. 317-8).
In his article [22], Savary provided further support for Ampère's conclusion that k = −1/2 by analyzing an experiment carried out in 1820 by the chemists Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac (1778-1850) and Jean-Joseph Welter (1763-1852). "Initially they utilized an unmagnetized steel ring which did not interact with a compass needle. If this ring was broken into pieces, its pieces also had no influence upon the magnetized needle. They then coiled a toroidal helix around this ring and a constant current flowed through it. The current was then turned off and the helix was removed out of the ring. The ring did not interact with a compass needle placed nearby. However, when the ring was broken into pieces, each piece did now interact with the magnetized needle. Each piece behaved now as a small magnet. That is, each small piece of the ring was magnetically polarized with a North and a South pole, so that it became magnetized" (Assis & Chaib, p. 149). Savary showed that the results of this experiment were possible only if k = 1 or −1/2, and as previous experiments by Ampère had shown that k could not be positive he could conclude that k = −1/2. "Savary's contribution was well publicized by Ampère. He wrote several complimentary reviews for influential journals and wrote to la Rive that Savary's presentation of his work to the Académie marked "a kind of epoch in the history of dynamic electricity"" (Hofmann, p. 321).

The bibliographical complexity of this work is a direct result of Ampère's modus operandi: "His work was marked by flashes of insight, and it often happened that he would publish a paper in a journal one week, only to find the next week that he had thought of several new ideas that he felt ought to be incorporated into the paper. Since he could not change the original, he would add the revisions to the separately published reprints of the paper and even modify the revised versions later if he felt it necessary" (Norman). Our version of the Receuil is more extensive than the most complete copy owned by Norman, and is probably that alluded to in the note to item 45 in the Norman catalogue: "Another, probably later version, has been noted with additional pages 361-378, plus an additional page of errata (p. 383) and ten instead of nine plates." This copy additionally has pp. 223-236, which are missing from the Norman copy and to which the additional plate refers.

In respect of the Cyprus Investment Scheme (CIS) an option to invest a maximum of EUR 500,000 in special Cyprus government bonds is given.
Bear in mind that these bonds can only be purchased by natural persons as per the terms of the bonds.
The special Cyprus government bonds are issued by the Public Debt Management Office of the Ministry of Finance, through the Cyprus Stock Exchange (for and on account of the Republic of Cyprus).
The issuance is governed by the Public Debt Management Laws of 2012 and 2016 and the Public Debt Management (Collective Action Clauses) Regulations of 2012. Article 7 (2) of the Public Debt Management Laws of 2012 and 2016 specifies for which purposes the proceeds from the issuance of the bonds are used after they are credited to the Consolidated Fund of the Republic.
The terms of these bonds are determined by the General and Special Issue Terms of the Government Bond of the Republic of Cyprus.
The Cyprus stock Exchange maintains a Registry of Holders and the bonds (after three years of their issuance) may be listed on the Cyprus Stock Exchange for trading, if the Ministry of Finance so decides.
The bonds are issued in series. Each series is issued on the first business day of each month.
0.75% (annual coupon for series 8) x 20 days : 365 (in the year 2018) = 0.04%.
Therefore, if a person has purchased EUR 1,000 of series 8 special government bonds and has held these for 20 days in 2018, they will receive EUR 40 (1,000 x 0.04) in interest.
The bonds may be transferred for EUR 100 or multiples thereof. Moreover, the bonds can be pledged.
Bonds held by minors cannot be transferred or pledged unless otherwise so provided through court order.
In the event that the holder of the bond is a domiciled Cyprus tax resident, Special Contribution for Defence of an amount of 3% will be withheld from the interest on the bond.
The relevant authorities do not charge fees for adding a holder on the Registry of Holders or for the issuance of the relevant certificate.
Moreover, any agreement in respect of the transfer of bonds is not subject to stamp duty.
On maturity the bonds are repaid at their nominal value, unless they have not been cancelled previously (either through buyback or through bond exchange).
The capital and interest in respect of the bonds shall be debited from the Consolidated Fund and shall have the same order of priority as any other public debt of the Republic of Cyprus.
If agreed between the bond holder and the Public Debt Management Office, the bonds may be redeemed or exchanged prior to their maturity and cancelled according to the Specific Terms of the series.
Applications for government bonds must be submitted from the 1st business day of the previous month until the 20th day of the previous month (if such is not a business day, then the last day preceding the 20th day of the previous month which is a business day should be followed).
Applications can be submitted personally with the Cyprus Stock Exchange or sent by mail (Cyprus Stock Exchange, Lord Byron Avenue 71-73, 1096 P.O. Box 25427, Nicosia).
In the event that documents are send by mail, note that these should be sent in original and that any signatures on the documents should be certified by the Embassy of Cyprus in the country of residence of the applicant. The copy of the passport should be legalized by "Apostille" by the issuing country. In the event that the issuing country has not signed The Hague Convention, then the passport should be stamped by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the issuing country, stamped by the Embassy of Cyprus in the issuing country and counter stamped by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cyprus.
In all cases, please note that all documents should be (translated) in English.
By banker's draft issued in the name of the Accountant General of the Republic. Such should be accompanied by proof on which the applicant's name and the account number from which the bank draft was issued, appear.
Note that on the Form 1A, the nominal value of the bonds for which the applicant wishes to apply should be indicated. The bonds are allocated at their nominal value and bonds should be purchased for a minimum of EUR 1,000. Anything beyond this minimum should be a multiple of EUR 100.
Moreover, the bonds may be purchased jointly. In such case the forms will need to be signed by all applicants.
The Cyprus Stock Exchange will accept an application if such is complete but will inform the applicant at a later stage (after the issue date of the bonds) in writing whether the application has been (partially) approved or (partially) rejected.
The application is reviewed by the Public Debt Management Office of the Ministry of Finance.
In the event that the application has been (partially) rejected, the funds paid for the bonds will be repaid (after the issue date of the bonds).

Oldham and Scunthorpe. When ownership goes wrong
All About Walsall
Gensanx123 3 December 2022 18:03 #1
Feel sad for the supporters of both these clubs. I would expect both to be gracing National League North next season. Appalling re Oldham. Remember them in the preniership and 2 fa cup semi finals in the 90s
Bags10 3 December 2022 18:43 #2
Could have easily been us two years ago.
Makes us realise how well of a job so far that Trivela have done.
Belphegor 3 December 2022 18:48 #3
Let's not forget the guy that did the deals to rid us of Boner and then bring them in.
Bluejay 3 December 2022 19:21 #4
Hope Scunthorpe's new owners can turn it around , hate to see clubs like Scunthorpe in the trouble they are.
For years nothing said Division 3 football like Oldham v Walsall on a wet February night , now look at them , it could so easily have been different for us.
In all three cases Scunthorpe, Oldham and ourselves the new ownership are promising the reunification of Stadia and club
Thinks are looking good at the moment. Agreed. But if you look at the tragic decline of Oldham this started with American ownership. 2 unkown Americans Blitz and Mazal dream in wanting to own a football league club. The sale to abdallah compounded things and now a glimmer of hope emerges with a local businessman taking over
Im just stating facts of what actually happened here. Scunthorpe. Not really sure
chunkster 3 December 2022 19:44 #6
My brother in law hails from Scunthorpe, and has been a lifelong fan alongside his dad, as you say a proper club with proper fans
SaddlerHQ 3 December 2022 21:39 #7
Oldham have actually changed ownership since their demotion which had fan backing so would've thought they'd have picked themselves up but looks like Stockport they need one more relegation before totally re-setting. Appointing Unsworth as manager wasn't a great move at all.
Scunthorpe have totally messed up. I can remember them sacking Graham Alexander when they were about 5th in league one with 10 games left, that was only 5 years ago!
Scunthorpe actually had 3 or even 4 sessons in the championship since 2006

Not really. There's been a lot of panic and hyperbole but it was never really on the cards.

Always think in league 2 that you're far too close for comfort to disaster .
Let's get back to our natural home of Div 3
longdogs 3 December 2022 22:38 #11
Scunny are in freefall. They won 5 of their last 60 league two matches, and 3 out of 22 in the national league this season. For the second time this season they're on a run of six consecutive defeats, and their season is shaping up to be a replica of last year. It's difficult to see how they can turn this round.
JumboTrudgeon 3 December 2022 22:46 #12
longdogs:
They won 5 of their last 60 league two matches,
Their last victory was over us wasn't it? I might be wrong but I didn't think they won again after finishing off Matt Taylor.
That's correct, they drew 3 and lost 13 after beating us.
And they'd lost 7 or 8 in a row before that win over us as well.
They were relegated with us in 2019.
Laundryman 4 December 2022 10:27 #15
And they played a sub-standard team on the last match of the season, let Bristol Rovers score a bucket of goals and get promoted on goal difference over Northampton.
I had forgotten Scunny were in the Championship as recently as 2011. We can say what we like about successive Walsall owners but none has ever let us slide that far down.
chunkster 4 December 2022 10:35 #16
No but we have come uncomfortably close
Laundryman:
Yes, there really should have been a stewards enquiry into that one.
Gensanx123 4 December 2022 11:38 #18
Football clubs generally lie in the sole power of one or 2 individuals. Totally wrong. Should be community owned. Oldham were sold the Abdallah dream, Scunny the Swaann dream, we have the Boycott dream.
Belphegor 4 December 2022 12:07 #19
Hopefully Trivela will sell out to The Wet family at some point then
latviancheese 4 December 2022 13:16 #20
There isn't really much of a quality gap between league two and National league anymore I think it's always a shock to clubs who go down.
Nor is there much of a financial gap so unless your Wrexham or Salford you can't just use clout to get to the top. Half of that league probably spends just as much as a league two club.
If your already in unserviceable debt territory it's a recipe for disaster. Let us never go there, it's a long dark road back

« What's with this Paul Jones thing anyway? | Main | The Gentleman Dancing-Master, 1673 »
Proper dress for cotillons, Boston, 1808
This short satire is really a commentary on early nineteenth-century fashion. My excuse for posting it here is that it pertains to dance history by making it clear that cotillons were still sufficiently fashionable in Boston in 1808 as to allow them to be part of a bilingual joke.
Also, it's funny, and I like it, and I'm feeling self-indulgent this month.
The excerpt below is taken from The Monthly Anthology and Boston Review, Vol. V, 1808. It is found in the December section under a column called "Silva", which seems to be a sort of literary miscellanea with a title shortened from a supposed Cicero quote starting "silvia rerum" (forest of things). "Cotillons" starts on page 657. I will include it in its entirety below with a short explanation for anyone who doesn't get the joke.
The Cotillon, or under-petticoat dance, received its name from that garment, which, to the exclusion of others was appropriated to its use. It is painful to observe that the ladies of Boston, are so far backward in the ranks of fashion, that, on those days of battle array, when they are drawn up to near and warm engagements, they have not yet ventured to assume their uniform. Is there no one of sufficient publick spirit to stand forward, and, like Ulysses, throwing off her useless rags, assume the majesty and simplicity of the Cotillon. An objection, indeed, may be raised, that, provided the external finery be removed, the expected substitute would not appear : that fashion has long since deprived a lady's person of that useless incumbrance. Without pretending to enter into the merits of this objection, or to decide, whether the garment, next but one to the skin, whatever be its quality and texture, be not the one in question, we would, with all humility, beg leave to inquire, whether Mrs. Cruft, and Miss Brown, and Mrs. _____, and Miss _____, &c. ad infinitum, are not sufficient to supply any demand, which this town and its vicinity can create. Away with such frivolous evasions.
The bilingual joke is that cotillon is French for petticoat, and the first cotillon (dance) was said to be one called "Le Cotillon" from the early 1700s. Having looked at "Le Cotillon", I think that the history of the dance form is considerably more complicated.
But the real commentary here is on the fashions of the day, the Empire-style gowns that, compared to the clothing of most of the 18th century, did look rather like petticoats. A petticoat in the early nineteenth century was not just a skirt; it had a bodice of sorts and shoulder straps as well, more like a twentieth-century slip. So while making his little joke that the cotillon should be danced ("when they are drawn up to near and warm engagements") wearing only a cotillon (petticoat), the author slips in a dig at women's dresses by implying both that women's fashions were so skimpy that they were no longer wearing petticoats ("that fashion has long since deprived a lady's person of that useless incumbrance"), and that perhaps the dresses they were wearing, no matter how fine ("the garment, next but one to the skin, whatever be its quality and texture") were in fact nothing but petticoats.
The author was not alone in observing the minimalism of fashionable dress. The 1807 caricature below, "The Fashions of the Day, or Time Past and Present", contrasts "The Year (1740) A Lady's full dress of Bombazeen" and "The Year (1807) A Lady's undress of Bum-be-seen".
"Undress" merely meant relatively informal costume, but as the 1810 Gillroy caricature below, "The Graces in a high wind", makes clear, the degree to which shape of women's bodies were visible was worthy of note, making the author's "near and warm engagements" sound less like dancing than another sort of intimate engagement.

…is to acquire AND retain customers where costs to acquire and retain are less than expenses, which leads to profits.
Boiled down to this single statement, then the most important variable in the finances is the marketing spend.
Even if your other expenses are high or way out of whack or your conversion is terrible and you can profitably acquire and retain customers, then those other expenses matter a lot less.
So, how do we know how well our marketing is working? We use the model in this post, which is a high level marketing campaign model that aggregates all the detailed costs into a few key components.
This model is probably the most important model in my arsenal and the one I use the most. It flows like a profit and loss statement with key ratios to help me quickly see how I am doing in a particular marketing or sales campaign.
Actually, this model is a more simplified version that I use, but for a very high level view, this one works great and useful to explain in this post.
How it works is rather simple. Let's dive in.
To download the spreadsheet used in this post, please scroll to the end.
This variable I set as my gross income that I want. Actually, it might be the last thing I set because I generally start with my net income and net margin goals and work backwards by putting in the variable that will get me there.
Excel's or Sheet's goal seek and goal seeker, respectively, are useful here, or you can interpolate by hand.
I always try to determine my COGS based on a given revenue range and a particular marketing channel and convert to a percentage of revenue, which makes it easy for the model to use when the other variables change.
The key here is to understand your costs for a given channel and product that you are promoting in the marketing campaign.
This is very important because marketing costs can vary dramatically for different channels and products.
This means you want to have a really good accounting general ledger and system to be able to track expenses down to the product and the channel.
I always like to look at my marketing fixed costs because they can vary quite dramatically by channel and product, so they go in this line item.
But the one variable in this whole model that I will constantly adjust based on my ad spend is the ad spend line item.
I highlighted it in blue because when I set all other variables, I find this one will continue to change the most.
This is all other costs for the business, and I mean all other fixed costs. Just lump them all into this variable.
There will be other variable costs, like product returns, but I generally just try to lump them into this line item based on the revenue range to keep the model simple.
Other P&L line items of net and profit margin are pretty simple to understand.
I always try to start with my goal net profit margin, then work backwards from there to fill in all other variables in the model.
My net profit margin goal is usually 30%.
Return on ad spend is important because it helps me compare one campaign to the next.
Do comparison only for each marketing campaign within a specific channel and by product. Don't use it to compare across different products and channels because it is not an apples-to-apples comparison.
2-4 is generally the range for breakeven for a consumer product business. If I am above that and at or below my breakeven net income, then I may need to try and work on getting my operating costs down to get it in line.
7 or above for a profitable business via digital marketing usually means I have a great performing campaign. That number is 3 or more for an analog marketing campaign.
My traffic line items specifically break down the performance for each step in my funnel through purchase.
Those performance ratios should be in line with my category.
My goal is to improve those ratios by playing with my funnel and each step in it to get better conversion.
And finally, I have my average order value, which rolls up to revenue.
Ad spend: the goal is to drive this one down, which means finding a marketing channel where the costs are cheaper over other channels (you have good marketing arbitrage).
Traffic: improve these numbers by working on your funnel to get customers to convert better in each step.
COGS and Operations: reduce these costs so that those savings flow to your net.
Average Order Value: get this number up so that fewer customers will do the job for you, which then means your traffic numbers do not need to perform as well.
This model can technically be used anywhere, even with reseller or retailers. The ad spend is any cost you pay to acquire customers.
For a reseller or retailer, that is not just the tradespend but also the margin you give to them to resell your product. Margin you give up is an acquisition cost, so I consider it a marketing expense.
When you look at it this way, the 65% margin that a retailer in a specialty channel is charging to resell your product becomes a huge expense.
But that is the way you want to look at it because if you can acquire customers for less in other channels (and you usually can), then you might want to focus efforts there.
Paying that 65% margin usually only starts to make sense when you can sell a lot of volume to get economies of scale, which takes time and cash to get to that point.
This model rolls up key performance indicator (KPI's) for a consumer product company.
Sure, there are many others you will want to track, and maybe one super metric, but they all roll into the ones in this simple model.
As long as you have robust and thorough data and accounting tracking systems in place, then it becomes quite easy to use this model to figure out what is working in your business.


I would like to express my appreciation for the copy of Labor's literacy and numeracy policy (April 2007) sent to me recently by Sharon Bird. It contains many good ideas, with a focus on greater support in terms of education funding and staffing from the Commonwealth to the states.
I do, however, find such policies worrying when they make no reference to books, and very little reference to reading (as opposed to literacy).
Research on the impact of libraries over the last decade has shown that better school libraries — those with more books and better staffing — are associated with greater literacy development.
The seminal study in this area was done by Keith Curry Lance and his associates, who found that school libraries in Colorado with better staffing and better collections had higher reading scores, even when factors such as poverty and availability of computers were controlled. These results were confirmed by other studies that showed that states with better school and public libraries earned higher scores on the NAEP fourth-grade reading examination. In addition, Warwick Elley reported a positive association in 32 different countries between the quality of a school's library and the reading achievement of students. The Colorado results have been replicated in several other states, by Lance himself as well as by other scholars.
School libraries make a difference. Well-funded school libraries with professionally qualified teacher librarians who are experts on student reading have a dramatic impact on student literacy. Students are found to have higher reading scores, "even when factors such as poverty and availability of computers were controlled." An excellent summary of the research was done here in Australia by Michele Lonsdale: The Impact of School Libraries on Student Achievement (ACER, 2003).
Australian children are falling in the world literacy rankings (SMH, 5 Dec. 2007). Over the past decade staffing and funding for school libraries has also been declining. National statistics have unfortunately not been collected through government agencies, however a survey is currently being done by Edith Cowan University. As a voluntary survey, the statistics will be a beginning.
Want higher test scores? A school librarian can make the difference.
· What can the federal government do to collect vital statistics on school library funding and staffing nationally?
· What consideration is being made for the improvement of Australian school libraries in order to improve student literacy?

Velikiy Novgorod - one of the most ancient cities of Russia located in its North-West, near the site where the Volkhov river takes its waters from Lake Ilmen, emerged as a political center of Slavic and Fino-Ugric tribes in the mid-9th century, while as a town it was formed in the middle of the 10th century. The history of Novgorod is closely linked with all major stages in the life of the Russian state. In those times, when the statehood of Rus was just in the making, the Novgorodians invited Scandinavian prince Rurik to keep law and order, thus giving birth to the prince Rurik dynasty that ruled over all Russian lands throughout more than 750 years.
Veliky Novgorod is not accidently called a city-museum of Old Russia - no other place has preserved that number of great monuments of architecture and monumental painting. Here it is hard and sometimes impossible to define where the city ends the musium begins. About 50 valuable monuments became a part of a modern city living structure. Here you can touch a rough wall and see an ancient fresco. The history of Novgorod churches, monasteries, fortifications is full of amazing as well as tragic pages.

Golden Ring, Yaroslavl
Golden Ring is a set of ancient Russian cities north-east of Moscow which form a circle if you look at them on the map. Moscow and St Petersburg are, of course, the main attractions in Russia, but if you really want to see a true Russian life and how the most of country lives, make an effort to travel to at least couple of the cities in the Golden Ring. The 'Golden Ring' route is known for the famous old cities and towns along the way, so one of the reasons to go there is to see Russian architecture, old churches made of white stone, hear the bellring, see old fortifications, fortresses, beautiful monasteries, and learn more about history of Russia. These towns are among the most picturesque in Russia and prominently feature Russia's famous onion domes. For such trip, the 'classical' route (Vladimir, Suzdal, Kostroma, Yaroslavl, Rostov, Pereslavl-Zalesskiy, Sergiev Posad) will be the most interesting.
Also, you'll be interested in going to the towns of the Golden Ring, if you want to experience another, provincial way of life in Russia. There you can take a peek on the Russian province: more traditional way of life, not yet as much westernized, fancy, and hectic as the big cities, with some relics of the Soviet times.

Spectacular northern White Nights, Scarlet Sails celebration, Drawing Bridges of Saint Petersburg
Scarlet Sails celebration
Although the phenomenon known as the "White Nights" is not unique to St Petersburg, in no other northern city have they received such poetic and literary acclaim. What could be more romantic than a walk along the banks of the city's rivers and canals in almost broad daylight, no matter what the time of day? No other major European city can rival this experience nor the atmosphere on the streets of St. Petersburg during the summer months - lively, friendly, romantic and bustling with people throughout the night as well as the day!
The White Nights Festival in St. Petersburg, Russia is an annual international arts festival during the season of the midnight sun. The White Nights Festival consists of a series of classical ballet, opera and music events and includes performances by Russian dancers, singers, musicians and actors, as well as famous international guest stars.

'Cause who doesn't love fried potatoes.
Los Angeles is the melting pot of culture and all things fit to ride a fork, which got us hungry, and thinking about the amazing revelation of cheese melted on fries. It may or may not have started with the cheese fries, and then came great things, bigger and better. From Mexico to Canada, we a have a list of regionally inspired dishes that follow the same format: take delicious ingredients, and place them on top of fries. What better to help tackle these mountainous plates of food than a smoke to elevate ourselves to the challenge? In this list, we'll give you all the information you need to find the perfect plate of loaded fries, and also, which strain to match for the perfect pairing. Light up, and grab some extra napkins.
This unassuming 1920s craftsman house was converted into a restaurant and now sits on the corner of Broadway and Newport in Long Beach. You might find the owner Steven Massis sitting on the front porch or a group of hipsters with French Bulldogs getting down on some delicious short rib poutine. Overall, the food is southern with dashes of creole and cajun. Additionally, there are poutine dishes that will leave Canadians scratching their heads and even the burliest of men giggling over the Mac n Cheetos menu option. Start with the short rib poutine made with hand-cut fries, topped with braised short rib, caramelized onions, mozzarella cheese curds, red wine demi-glaze and topped with green onions. You better add the fried egg too!
In the mood for a drink that you can also eat? Check out their separate Bloody Mary menu that offers customizations and dozens of options to accessorize your drink with. In the dining area, you'll see towering tall cocktails balancing on trays. Your eyes don't deceive you - that is a sandwich garnish on top of that beverage. Cheers!
Weed Pairing: A couple snaps of Gorilla Glue #4 will get you in the right head space to take on this poutine plate from the Attic. Pungent smells and earthy flavors of pine confirm the recent 2014 LA High Times Cannabis Cup 1st place win. Toke this strand and destroy not just the poutine, but that Bloody Mary and the Man n Cheetos dish — without guilt.
This hole-in-the-wall restaurant is just what you need when you're craving French fries that are on another level. Not only do they have delicious L.B.C. Fries made with crispy french fries, shredded cheddar cheese, ranch, and bacon, but they also have a whole menu dedicated to a list of fries that Long Beach locals love. The Opa Fries, D.U.I Fries and the 502 Fries are also great choices if you're looking to get totally loaded. Who doesn't love turning side items into whole meals? This spot is cash only, so bring the green.
Weed Pairing: Tahoe OG is great for addressing a lack of appetite, so we recommend taking a toke before tackling your loaded fries. This strain offers an earthy, lemon taste to bring balance to the richness of the fries. Whether it's the OG or the L.B.C, you'll be couched for at least a couple hours after this pairing.
Langer's Deli has been around for more than 66 years and is considered iconic to the LA area. According to many deli aficionados, the Pastrami sandwich is considered the best in America. With over ten pastrami sandwich varieties on the menu, it makes sense, and it's only fitting that their Pastrami Chili Cheese Fries would make our list. Their crinkle fries are deep fried to a golden crispiness, then smothered in house-made chili, shredded cheddar cheese and a generous portion of some of the best pastrami that all of LA has to offer.
Weed Pairing: Girl Scout Cookies offers a sweet and earthy aroma that will launch your pastrami experience into a state of euphoria. A little goes a long way with this strain, so save some and make room for the fries.
Get off that couch and out of the house! Head over to Stir Market for an explosion of flavor with a side of cheese. The Porchetta Chili Cheese Fries are out of this world, and just might make you think that you died and went to heaven. Belgian fries are topped with chunks of porchetta, beans, melted cheese and crispy pork skin.
Weed Pairing: OG Kush brings an earthy pine scent and woody undertones to cut through the richness of the chili cheese fries. The euphoric effects of this strand will make you so happy you chose to traverse DTLA.
Celebrity Chef Roy Coi runs the menu at this joint, located in a faded mini mall. His name might ring a bell since he is known as one of the founders of the food truck movement. Order a Kimchi Spam Bowl to go along with your Ooey Gooey Fries for the ultimate munchie madness. Despite his famous name, no reservations are needed for this low-key restaurant - instead, picture picnic tables and reggae music. Dig into the Ooey Gooey fries made with beer-battered fries, sour cream sambal, Monterey Jack and cheddar cheese, cotija, chilies, cilantro and pickled garlic.
Weed Pairing: Granddaddy Purple is the perfect pairing to go with those Ooey Gooey fries. This is a great indica to calm that insanely full stomach you will experience from downing these fries and will help sidle you into a well-deserved cat nap.
This is a typical authentic taco joint expected of San Diego, but actually located in West Hollywood. Angelenos are lucky to bring that border a little bit closer to cure the insatiable carne asada appetite. Taco Love is clean, modern, creative and represents the community. Paul Kot, Marko Velazquez, and David Modelo are passionate about Mexican food and shows that you can keep it simple, and it tastes just right. Order the carne asada fries made with crispy fries, cheese, sour cream, and guac.
Weed Pairing: Trainwreck offers a sweet lemon and spicy pine aroma to those carne asada fries that you'll be consuming. Trainwreck is a hybrid with potent Sativa effects that are sure to bring out your creativity and happiness. The high THC content will help relieve what pains you, so you can focus on not spilling your loaded fries.
You might be familiar with Brothers Yong and Ted Kim, and Chef Chris Oh. They are known for winning season three of the Great Food Truck Race, a highly popular Food Network show. Seoul Sausage Company offers a new way to eat Korean BBQ. The Galbi poutine made with eight hour braised short ribs, twice-fried French fries, cheese, kimchi pickled onions and avocado lime crema - enough to make any tummy rumble.
Michelle is a local of Southern California's coastal cities. She enjoys hiking, poetry, and cured meats, but not necessarily in that order. Her favorite food is Mexican, but that's probably because it's more available than the Hungarian cuisine she grew up on. Michelle has been in the restaurant industry professionally for ten years, and unprofessionally her whole life. Her love for food translates into her writing. She received her BA in Creative Writing from CSULB and is working on completing her Master's Degree in Poetry at CSULB. If she's not at the table next to you in your favorite restaurant, then she's writing content about the next best place to find delicious cuisine.

Disbrow
Last name: Disbrow
Recorded in the spellings of Desborough and the variants Desbrow and Disbrow, this is an English surname which was very prominent in the history of the country during the great Civil War of 1640 - 1660. It is locational and there are two villages of which either or both may be responsible for the surname. These are Desborough in Buckinghamshire, so called from the Olde English pre 7th Century word "dwostle", meaning an aromatic plant now called 'Pennyroyal', and much used in herbal cures, plus "beorg", which may mean a castle or fortress, but can also mean a hill. The second origin is from a place in Northamptonhshire, which was originally named in Olde English as "Deoresburh", and translating as 'the strong fort'. The early recordings taken from the church registers of the city of London include Richard Desborough who married Bridget Woodland at St. James Clerkenwell, in 1722. The first recorded spelling of the family name may be that of Major General John Desborough of the army of the English Parliament in 1642. He was later the member of Parliament for Cambridge, and additionally, a 'regicide'. He was one of the fifty three people, including Oliver Cromwell, who signed the death warrant of King Charles 1st in 1648. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

St. Paul's Home for the Aged began its service to the aged in the community in 1926 and continues today with faith and enthusiasm. During these 90 years, St. Paul's Home and Apartment Community has been a leader in the field of caring for the aged in Southern Illinois.
There are ten board members, seven from St. Paul United Church of Christ, one from Trinity United Church of Christ, one from Christ United Church of Christ, and one from the community. St. Paul's Home Foundation board is composed of members from the local area.
The history of St. Paul's Home is very much like the history of the Christian Church. It's a story of God answering prayers at critical periods and sincere Christians responding to the needs of their fellow men and women at the most opportune times.
As far back as 1918, some of the caring people in the congregation of what is now St. Paul United Church of Christ in Belleville were discussing the need for a home for older men and women.
One family in the congregation decided to step out and lead the way to a happy solution to this problem of providing a good home for the aged. Walter J. Kohl, a successful businessman in Belleville, and his wife, Bertha (nee Keil) Kohl, purchased the Adam Gintz home at 1021 West "E" Street in Belleville and gave it to St. Paul's Church to be used as a home for the aged of all faiths in the Belleville area. St. Paul's Home for the Aged was officially founded on August 22, 1926.
The good news of the generous gift spread through the community. Congregations in other churches, in fact the whole community, responded with moral support and substantial gifts to help to convert the Gintz residence to a home for the aged. On June 12, 1927 St. Paul's Home opened its doors to the first thirteen residents.
From the very first month of its existence, St. Paul's Home for the Aged was recognized by the people of the Belleville area as an idea whose time had come. In 1945, 1957, 1962, 1969, and 1981 additions were added to the original building. In 1987 a new apartment building was built and connected to the nursing home.
In June 2008, St. Paul's Home became Medicare certified. This changed the licensure to 78 Skilled, 35 Intermediate, and 62 Shelter beds. This addition brought inpatient skilled rehabilitation services along and out-patient therapy, focusing on recuperation. Registered physical, occupational, speech therapist along with skilled nurses are available to assist residents in achieving maximum independence.
There has been a constant demand for services. In December 2013 construction started on a new household model nursing facility that will open in the spring of 2015. This will replace the outdated building with a wonderful new home. This setting is much like the original home, it has six households, and each is built with a hearth room, dining room, and kitchen along with a bedroom for each resident. These small households encourage relationships and allow more choices for the residents.
St. Paul's Home, now known as St. Paul's Senior Community, will continue to strive to provide a wide range of services to the elderly in a skilled and caring environment. Senior adults who have chosen St. Paul's Senior Community for retirement living have come from all over the area, including Belleville, O'Fallon, Fairview Heights, Cahokia, Smithton, Millstadt, Freeburg, Lebanon, Shiloh and other parts of St. Clair County, with some guests even moving here from out-of-state to be near their adult children. We are happy to welcome them all!

The king hires a famous comedian named Truffaldino to perform at the palace, but as soon as the prince laughs, an evil witch named Fata Morgana curses him, making him wander the world feverishly searching for three mysterious oranges. The good wizard Celio, Fata Morgana's archenemy, helps Tartaglia and his new side kick, Truffaldino, overcome several obstacles on their way to finding the oranges, and Prince Tartaglia returns home with much more than fruit.

Green Papaya Digestive Aid maintains maximum digestive action naturally, and is 100% pure.
Royal Tropic The Original Green Papaya Digestive Aid maintains maximum digestive action naturally, and is 100% pure.
From ancient Hawaii comes mature Green Papaya Powder: rich in papain, protein, fiber and high in potassium, now in concentrated capsule form.
The Green Papaya fruit are harvested at the optimal moment before fully ripened.
The Papaya is known to have an abundance of two very important enzymes that break down proteins: Papain and chymopapain.
These are proteolytic enzymes, which assist proper digestion in humans by breaking down proteins into simpler and more soluble forms.
Papain is a milky juice, which is found only in the green papaya fruit. Used internally, papain is very effective in the treatment of indigestion originating in the stomach or intestines. Papain transforms proteins into peptones, which are more easily absorbed into the bloodstream, thus facilitating protein assimilation and improving digestion. Laboratory analyses of dehydrated green papaya show that it contains approximately 8% protein (mainly enzymes), 70% carbohydrates (pectin and fruit sugar), and 5% crude fiber.
Green papaya is also rich in potassium (1950 mg per 100 gms), which is important to balance sodium levels and protect cells against harmful substances. Vitamin A, an anti-oxidant and vision aid, is also prevalent in the amount of 2000 I.U. per 100 gms. Green papaya contains many other useful nutrients and trace elements which play an important role in human nutrition.
Fasting Support.Natural Aid to Digestion.

It will remain mostly cloudy, breezy and warm on Thursday with highs right back into the mid-upper 70s and by late day/evening, a few stray storms could pop-up across the Plateau up into portions of S.E. Kentucky.
We will be Weather AWARE late Thursday night through at least midday Friday as a cold front sweeps across the region. Scattered showers and some storms will increase in coverage, but again, the severe threat looks low. These showers and storms could certainly impact the morning commute Friday and have an impact on early morning outdoor plans.
The front looks to clear the Mountains around midday Friday and we will slowly see some clearing from west to east during the afternoon and evening hours.
Brisk northwest winds will kick in as well bringing in some cooler air. Most will only see highs in the mid-upper 60s Friday afternoon and fall off into the 40s under a clear sky Friday night with a few spots in the upper 30s.

Sid Meier's Pirates!, the classic video game first released way back in 1987, has finally docked into the iPhone. This isn't its first arrival on the iOS platform, though, as it has been previously ported and launched on the iPad in July last year.
Apparently, Sid Meier's Pirates! for iPhone offers nothing new in the way of gameplay enhancements and other bonuses. It appears to be a direct iPhone port of the iPad redesign, which, in turn, was based on the Wii version of Sid Meier's Pirates! This is evidenced by the fact that the release notes for the new iPhone version and the old iPad version are pretty much identical.
As in Sid Meier's Pirates! for iPad, you get to take on the role of an intrepid Pirate Captain in Sid Meier's Pirates! for iPhone, as you control 27 ships and customize them with various types of ammunition. Using the iPhone's touch controls, you're tasked to conquer your marauding opponents, including Blackbeard, Captain Kidd, and Henry Morgan.
Sid Meier's Pirates! for iPhone is now available in the App Store for $2.99, two dollars less than its iPad counterpart's price. Note that this is another example of a developer choosing to release a separate version instead of making its existing iOS game universal. Also, there seems to be no iCloud integration for progress syncing between the two versions.
