PhD scholar recognised for sporting success
Victoria University researcher Dr Matthew Varley has taken out the prestigious Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) Robert T Withers PhD Scholar Award.
A PhD student from VU's Institute of Sport, Exercise and Active Living (ISEAL), Varley was named a dual recipient of the award for his PhD thesis on acceleration and fatigue in soccer.
The award recognises exercise physiology research that will have a substantial impact on Australia's sporting success.
"It's hard to measure the impact of your research, so to have it recognised by such an elite sporting organisation is quite humbling. I got into sports science research because of my love of soccer, so it's really exciting to know that my research translates onto the field," says Varley.
Varley's thesis focused on developing new techniques to analyse the movements performed by team sport athletes. He investigated the accuracy and reliability of popular GPS technology for measuring instantaneous changes in speed to quantify the movement of A-league players during competition.
"Our key finding was that high-intensity actions such as accelerations primarily occur at a low speed. Typically in match analysis, high-intensity activity is only considered to occur when an athlete is running at a high speed. Therefore, high-intensity activity is often underestimated in match analysis."
The award also recognised several match analysis research projects Varley conducted with supervisor Associate Professor Rob Aughey, Dr Tim Gabbett (ACU), the AIS, Melbourne Victory, Melbourne Heart and Perth Glory football clubs.
"Victoria University has provided me with an incredible level of assistance during my PhD, in terms of facilities, support staff and supervisors. The conference support offered during each year of my PhD enabled me to initiate collaborative projects with a range of researchers," he says.

This dish tasted fantastic. It is a great vegetarian dish and if you want to be extra healthy you could use wholewheat pasta and a little less cheese, either way it is yummy! Cooking your vegetables on a low flame all the way through in a small pan gives the carrots and peppers the juicy and sweet flavour that is so very delicious.
Fry your carrots and onions together in a small pan for 4-5 minutes. If you use a frying pan it will cook too quickly.
Now add your yellow peppers and cook for a few more minutes.
Now add your mushrooms and cook for a few minutes more, make sure you stir it all through together. Put your pasta into some salted pre-boiled water.
Add your garlic and stir - cook for a few minutes.
Add your few drops of lemon juice and stir.
Your pasta should be ready now.
Turn off the heat to your pan and stir in some black pepper.
Stir in your grated Parmesan cheese.
Now grate your little piece of Edam cheese on your drained pasta and stir well.
Add your yellow pepper mixture and stir well.
So you have started blogging in full swing. Pasta and stepwise pics look so nice as always.
Hello Jeena, The pasta delight looks delicious ! This dish looks fantastic, I will have ago making it and will let you know the results, not sure that it will be as professional as your but I will give it ago. I think your blog is excellent, your photos are perfect and your recipes are just out of this world, how long you been a chef ? Do you have any tips for me as I am just starting to learn how to cook.
Hi Jeena I'm so happy you're back! I've been checking your blog almost everyday waiting and you're finally blogging again! I love pasta and this dish looks easy and wonderful.

Shoppers left stranded in car park mystery
An investigation is underway after the central locking systems of at least 100 cars have been compromised in Joondalup.
Cars locking out drivers in Perth shopping centre car park

A growing number of motorists have had a problem getting into their own car after parking on the north side of Lakeside Joondalup shopping centre.
The reason behind the spate of bizarre incidents that have affected dozens of drivers parked near Chemist Warehouse in recent days is baffling.
Mitchell Kingston says his wife found herself in a tricky situation on Thursday as she tried to get into her car using her keyless entry device, which usually disables a car's immobilizer without the need for a key.
"Once she got back to her car, she could not get back in," he said.
"Her car and keyless entry and ignition connection had been completely disconnected."
She contacted a local Ultra Tune mechanic who managed to get her moving again and she inquired if this was a common occurrence.
"He (told her) in the last week there had been days where 20-plus car alarms in the area would start going off and people were locked out of their cars," Mr Kingston said.
"They had helped over 100 people regain control of their car and the drivers were told to move out of the area and park elsewhere so it didn't happen again."
Mr Kingston said he returned later in the day to thank the mechanic and it happened again - he witnessed the mass alarms going off for himself.
"I called Lakeside Joondalup and they said to me the matter has been given to the police as there is a hacking device in the car park somewhere," he said.
Joondalup Police said they were aware of the issue but 'no evidence of criminality' had been identified.
Lakeside Joondalup posted a statement on its Facebook page on Friday morning, saying that WA Police don't believe suspicious activity is involved.
However, shopping centre management has increased security patrols in the area where most of the reports are coming from.
The Australian Communications and Media Authority has told the centre's management the cause of disruption could be as simple as an internet modem.
Or could it be a doorbell?
A similar incident occurred in 2017 on a section of street in the Melbourne suburb of Carlton. Cars were being towed because people suddenly couldn't get into them.
But when they reached the mechanic, no problem was found.
An investigation found a constant signal at the same frequency as car key remotes was interfering.
The culprit turned out to be a faulty doorbell at a dentist on the street.
Ultra Tune Joondalup's Gary Bourne told 6PR his staff had been helping people out since Tuesday last week but he had no idea about the cause.
"We've physically helped 40 or 50 people unlock their cars and we've been contacted by at least 100 people," he said.
After the first case, Mr Bourne said his own staff had been affected by the issue.
"That night we went to leave the building ourselves and we couldn't get into our own cars," he said.
Several readers have confirmed that the problem has been going on since at least last week.
Kim Pou said last Friday she pushed the button on her key after returning to her car and was surprised when it didn't work.
"So I used the key to manually unlock and my alarm went off," she said.
"I was locked out for about 25 minutes before I actually managed to get into my car.
"I honestly thought maybe my key needed a new battery so I went and got that all changed."
However, Lijo John said it couldn't have been a battery in his case - he was driving a brand new car.
"I was unable to access my car near Chemist Warehouse last week," he said.
"My remote access just wouldn't work and it's a brand new car. I had to use the manual key, which set the alarm off and I couldn't disable it for a while."

Things are chugging right along at our house. We're currently sleeping in the living room while the four bedrooms upstairs are being dealt with. At first it felt like camping or something and it was exciting. Now...not so much. The electricians were in yesterday and are coming back tomorrow, and I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they're finished by then. They did an unreal amount of work yesterday - I am so glad we decided to hire this job out rather than tackle it ourselves. What they did in one day would likely have taken us at least a week.
Unfortunately I don't have any pictures to share. The power is cut off upstairs, and the furnace is blowing dust around like you wouldn't believe. I tried to take a couple of pictures yesterday with my phone when I got home from work but all you could see were dust particles.
Once the electricians are done, some foam insulation is going up over the barn board (you can see what I mean by barn board in pictures from this post), and then we'll be ready for drywall. There is no way things could be moving along so fast if it weren't for Mike's dad and brother. They've been working their butts off to help us get this house fixed up while Mike and I are at work and I will be forever grateful. We're crossing our fingers that everything will be ready for mud by the time we leave to BC for the wedding. We'll be out of the house and the pets will be out of the house so it'll be easy for the guys to come in and mud and sand and mud and sand and mud and sand. I'm glad we're hiring that job out, too.
As for the new house, if all goes according to plan we close on February 12th. We have some paper work to figure out before then, since we aren't going to be the only owners of the property, but I'm not expecting that to be a problem. It kills me that I can't show pictures of the new place yet. I drive past it every single day on my way to work and IT'S SO PRETTY.
Ta ta for now...hopefully sometime soon I'll be writing a post that includes pictures.


TREE-MENDOUS EFFORT: Disney recording artist Shannon Saunders, centre, with green-fingered enthusiasts, from left, Duncan, seven, Scarlett, 10, Angus, 11, Thomas, 12, and Abi,10.
BRINKWORTH singer Shannon Saunders has marked a year since she was crowned the winner of a Disney Channel talent competition by planting trees to promote England's woodland.
The 17-year-old topped a public vote last September after winning the hearts of Disney Channel viewers across the country.
As well as performing at a live concert in London's KoKo Club music venue, and staging a private gig for friends and family at home, Shannon won the chance to sing the theme music to Disney's film My Camp Rock 2.
Since then she has performed a track on the soundtrack for Disney's 50th animated feature film Tangled, a global hit last year based on the fairy tale Rapunzel.
Shannon said: "My Camp Rock 2 was just on the Disney Channel but Tangled was released in cinemas.
"I got the honour of recording the song at the Abbey Road Studios.
Having finished her diploma in songwriting at the Institute of Modern Music in Bristol in June, she is eschewing university to focus on her music.
Last month the former Wootton Bassett School pupil took part in the Disney Friends For Change campaign at England's largest new native woodland at Heartwood Forest, Hertfordshire.
"I'm thrilled to be part of this initiative to help encourage kids to and help make a difference in their communities," she said.

Protesters on both ends of the health care debate squared off in competing rallies outside the Columbus, Ohio office of district Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy (D-OH), who says she is undecided on her vote for the bill.
A wrinkled, kneeling man holding a stick crawled up to a group opposing the effort with a sign saying he has "got Parkinson's" and needs help.
"Police on foot and bicycles kept a close eye on the crowd that stretched along Olentangy River Road. Several loud exchanges occurred as some protesters got in each other's faces, but no physical clashes were reported," the paper added.
The scenes were reminiscent of the heated town-hall protests across the nation last summer when supporters and opponents of health reform clashed.
This video is from Columbus Dispatch, broadcast March 16, 2010.
The Columbus Dispatch caught health care protesters in Ohio jeering at a man with Parkinson's Disease Tuesday.

There is only one thing we should be doing and that is making solid offers based on the numbers.
Some real estate investors are worried about "offending the seller" with their low offer. What? There is only one thing we should be doing and that is making solid offers based on the numbers.
There is a saying that goes something like this; "If you don't feel at least a little bit uncomfortable about your offer, you've just offered too much".
Many real estate investors especially folks that are new get a little "squirmy" when they reach the actual number they should be offering on a property. They will then go back and look at the numbers to see if they can raise that offer a little bit to a number that they think the seller will like a little bit better and doesn't make them squirm when they say it out loud. Getting this new number often involves what I like to call "eraser math".
Eraser math is when you start erasing the numbers that should be on the paper and putting down numbers that ease the "squirmy factor" in your offer. I am here to tell you that is almost always a mistake.
When you are putting together an offer on a property there is only one thing that should be happening; you have to let the numbers do the talking. It's always about the numbers.
Making solid offers is not about falling in love with a property, or trying to find a way to "make it work". Now I am not talking about normal negotiation. What I mean is that you should have an absolute MAO or maximum allowable offer. If you have to start fudging the numbers; raising the anticipated ARV or lowering the repair estimates to make the numbers work that is eraser math, and it is always a bad idea.
Investors all have a little different way or method of doing this, so I'm not really going to go into this part of the equation. The thing you need to know is that you must get really good at nailing your numbers. You need to be completely accurate and this takes a little practice.
I am a wholesaler and my investor buyers are almost always rehabbers or landlords. If I have a house to sell to a rehabber, I have to know what he will need to spend on repairs before I can ever make an offer. The folks on my cash buyer's list always do their own rehab estimates. But I have to know what those costs will be too.
This is also true for the landlord buyers on my list. They may not update the kitchen today or put that roof on today that will be needed in the next 12 months, but the bill will eventually come due. The numbers for my offer are generally the same for both rehabbers and landlord buyers especially since I'm not always sure who that buyer will be.
If you are presenting deals to other investors and you don't have your numbers right, your credibility will go right out the window. This skillset is a must in our business.
What is a realistic ARV for this property? Don't look at that oddball high comp. Look at what most properties are selling for, and only compare like properties within a half mile range of your property.
What will the repairs likely be? Get your number and then add a little more. Things always take longer and cost more than you expect. This brings up another point; learn to expect the unexpected especially for rehabbers. Ask yourself, "What else can come up"? The older the property, generally there will more of the "unexpected" that will show up.
Know the market conditions in your area. If you are a rehabber or a wholesaler selling to a rehabber, look at the days on the market for properties like yours in that area. If the days on the market are longer, folks will be looking for a little larger spread to cover holding costs. This won't necessarily be true if it is a seller's market where there is a low inventory and properties are moving quickly.

The 2022 Annual Ugly Christmas Sweater Party
The most fun you can have during the holidays is by coming to the party. But if you have a really good excuse for not attending the biggest, ugliest, sweateriest bash of the season— you can still help in different ways to support our favorite charity, Operation Breakthrough!
This year's annual party is scheduled for Friday, December 2nd at The Truman, located in downtown Kansas City. Tickets are available now to the best holiday party in town. Your ticket to the party includes musical performances, holiday-themed games, costume contests, raffle prizes and more! What are you waiting for? Get your tickets now!
Who is behind the Ugly Christmas Sweater Party?
The Ugly Christmas Sweater Party began in 2005 as a small holiday gathering in Brookside hosted by Ramsey Mohsen, Scott Aripoli, and Patrick Perkins. While cleaning up in 2007, we decided to turn all of our hard work into good for others, and raise money for a charity.
When we started our search for that organization, we knew Operation Breakthrough was the right charity to benefit because of the great work they do with kids. During our first visit to OB, we met with the children who benefit from their programs. That was all it took for us to become a supporter. The whole organization is truly amazing in all of its efforts and the impact this has on the local community.
A steering committee of dedicated volunteers helps plan Party and Day festivities every year. The 2022 Steering Committee:
Ramsey Mohsen
Scott Aripoli
Tiffany Bidne
Emily Bruschi
Lindsay Clarke
Eddie Croissant
Drew Flowerday
David Greenwald
Melanie Hungerford
Maddy Ibarra
Emily Buenger
Nic Rusher
Amanda Kovac
Annie Mulvey
Cody Weyhofen
Ivette Roberson
Tara Daugherty
We're a group of friends who want to give back to our community with the goal of making a positive impact by donating as much money and toys to Operation Breakthrough as possible. Our vision for the Ugly Christmas Sweater Party and Day is to make it the biggest and best annual holiday fundraiser in Kansas City!
What is the Ugly Christmas Sweater Party you say? It's a super awesome annual ugly sweater costume party that raises money for Operation Breakthrough, and has even been featured on the Travel Channel! It includes open bar, games, raffle, costume contest, Snowball Pong, and much more! But be sure to follow us for updates on this year's party.
Interested in bringing a large group or hosting your company holiday party at our event? Contact us about bulk ticket pricing and corporate options at info@kcsweaterparty.com.
What should I expect at this party?
Glad you asked! Here is what to expect at the party:
Dance your jingly heart out listening to DJ Alex Reed dropping the beats.
Strike a pose at the gif-photo booth provided by DJ Alex Reed, then brag about your experience at the party on social media!
Trophies for the top costumes: Ugliest Sweater, Best Couple's Outfit…and more!
Awesome raffle prizes such as autographed Travis Kelce gear. Go Chiefs!
Snowball Pong. Think beer pong meets….Christmas…with a prize for the champion and all of the bragging rights.
VIP tickets include open bar *gasp* which includes select domestic drafts and well liquor (included in your ticket price, just be sure to tip your bartenders) *cheers*.
What is the dress code?
It's a costume party! So show up proudly wearing your best Ugly Christmas Sweater. It's REQUIRED. We suggest rummaging through your parents closet or making your own.
Is VIP worth it?
If you don't like open bar access at parties and donating some extra $ to charity, then no, don't do VIP. Does all of the above appeal to you? Great, a VIP Ticket is for you! You can check it out on our tickets page.
What time does the party start?
The doors open at 7:30 p.m. for all ticket holders. On the day of the party, you will need to check in at the front doors with a valid ID that corresponds with the name you purchased your tickets online.
What parking is available?
The parking lot behind The Truman has event parking available for $10 and street parking is available as well, but we encourage all partygoers to utilize a rideshare service such as Uber or Lyft.
What is "The Day" you say? The Ugly Christmas Sweater Day was created to support Operation Breakthrough's mission to aid children living in poverty in Kansas City's urban core. This Day, which has been officially proclaimed by the Mayor of Kansas City for the past 8 years, encourages local residents, organizations and businesses to donate food, toys, money, time, and cheer during this holiday season.
Ugly Christmas Sweater Day will be on December 2, 2022, but the cause lasts well beyond that. All proceeds will directly benefit Operation Breakthrough. We encourage you to don your finest, most festive ugly apparel and join us in supporting this local cause. In addition to attending the closing party, local businesses, organizations, retailers, and restaurants–large or small–may pick and choose from various options to help support Operation Breakthrough in their own unique way. Follow the link below to learn more about how you can help.
Founded in 1971, Operation Breakthrough is a local organization serving hundreds of children and families from Kansas City's urban core. With less than 50% of government funding, OB relies on donations from the community to open their doors. Their mission is to provide a safe, loving and educational environment for children in poverty and to empower their families through advocacy, emergency aid, and education. From education and therapy to a food pantry and clothing closet, all services are provided at no cost to the families.
For more than two decades Operation Breakthrough has provided Christmas gifts and holiday meals to families in need, with much support from the community. Their program is open to the community in addition to all children enrolled at Operation Breakthrough, reaching over 3,000 children in 2018! The children who receive Christmas aid all come from low-income families. Some are homeless, and many are in foster care because they have been abused or neglected in the past. Nearly all live in single-parent families living off of less than $12,000 annually.
More than 80% of the enrolled families at Operation Breakthrough live below federal poverty guidelines, most far below them.
Operation Breakthrough educates, feeds, heals and loves over 700 children daily, ages 6 weeks to 18 years. The center buses an addition 600 students to OB from surrounding schools for hands-on learning during the day, nearly double the number of children Operation Breakthrough reaches each week!
Less than 40% of Operation Breakthrough's funding comes from government sources - city, state and federal. Grants from foundations and corporate and individual donations make up the rest.
90%+: Number of graduating OB preschoolers who tested 'ready for kindergarten' the past six years, despite the national average of less than 50% for children living in poverty.

Gothic Romance in Crimson Peak
"But the horror…the horror was for love. The things we do for love like this are ugly, mad, full of sweat and regret. This love burns you and maims you and twists you inside out. It is a monstrous love, and it makes monsters of us all" – Jessica Chastain, Crimson Peak (2015)
**spoilers ahead**
One February night in grad school, it occurred to me, randomly, that I had never seen Crimson Peak (2015) by Guillermo del Toro. I remedied that by borrowing a copy from the Ohio University library; it soon became one of my favorite films of all time. Reflecting classic imagery and story elements of Gothic romances, this beautiful film opened my perspective to new forms of storytelling and art direction in horror films.
Theatrical poster for Crimson Peak (2015), dir. Guillermo del Toro
The story begins with Edith Cushing as a child on the night of her mother's funeral. A terrifying apparition bearing a resemblance to her mother comes to her while alone in her bedroom. The figure warns Edith to beware of Crimson Peak, a name that means nothing to her until much later in the story. The film fast-forwards to Edith as a young woman (Mia Wasikowska) in 1901 Buffalo, New York, on her way to present the manuscript of her first novel for publication. After a disappointing meeting with her potential publisher, Edith meets Sir Thomas Sharpe (Tom Hiddleston), an inventor and miner of red clay from England. He immediately shows interest in her writing, which sparks their connection. Following the sudden and violent death of her father, Edith and Thomas marry and return to the Sharpe estate of Allerdale Hall (also called Crimson Peak for the deep reddening of snow that occurs from the clay in the earth). Joined by Thomas' overbearing sister, Lucille (Jessica Chastain), in their crumbling family home, Edith must adjust to her new life as well as the tortured spirits that have begun to appear to her from the shadows.
Mia Wasikowska as Edith Cushing in Crimson Peak
When it comes to the romance in the story, Edith's character offers something refreshing for viewers like me who came to Crimson Peak for the spooky stuff. From our very first meeting of the adult Edith, we see that her passion lies in her writing and providing for herself from her work. She does not need a relationship, but she pursues one when it feels right. Even after they are married, Edith remains independent and does not define herself by her relationship. After her encounters with the ghosts of Crimson Peak, she looks beyond her love for Thomas to discover the truth of her new home and family. Although Thomas had darker intentions with his courting of Edith at first, their love is mutual and true by the end. This proves to be Thomas' demise, but his sacrifice at the hands of his jealous sister saves Edith's life (not to mention her everlasting soul) in the end.
One of my favorite features of the Gothic style is the role of the setting as an additional character in the story. Crimson Peak itself is a ruin of a house that is sinking into the ground from which Thomas mines their only source of livelihood. A large hole in the roof opens the house to the outside world. As the film progresses, snow falls through this opening and collects in the center of the house (my textual-analysis brain loved this detail). The cultural influences of the time indirectly bring Edith and Thomas together in New York and further dictate the interactions between and freedoms of the characters in this particular story. Check out this interview with Tom Hiddleston below, who does a much better job of explaining this stuff than I can (you are welcome):
Crimson Peak has been one of my must-watch Valentine's Day movies for the past few years. Its portrayal of romance is genuine, its nuances and challenges elevated by the saturated Gothic style by which it is delivered in this film. Not only is this film visually stunning and suspenseful to the very last second, but it also portrays varying struggles and enjoyments of humanity in deliciously dark ways.
If for nothing else, watch it to listen to Tom Hiddleston talk. Trust me.

Q: Finding a word in a web page using java I am trying to search a specific word in a specific web page, I'm using Java and Eclipse. The problem is that if I'm taking a web page with almost without content it works fine, but when I'm trying in a "big" web page it doesn't find the word.
for example: I am trying to find the word ["InitialChatFriendsList" in the web page: https://www.facebook.com, if it finds the word then print WIN!!!
Here is a full Java code:
public class BR4Qustion {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        try {
            URL url = new URL("https://www.facebook.com");
            br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream()));

            String foundWord = "[\"InitialChatFriendsList\"";
            String sCurrentLine;

            while ((sCurrentLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
                String[] words = sCurrentLine.split(",");
                for (String word : words) {
                    if (word.equals(foundWord)) {
                        System.out.println("WIN!!!");
                        break;
                    }
                }
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            try {
                if (br != null)
                    br.close();
            } catch (IOException ex) {
                System.out.println("*** IOException for URL : ");
            }
        }
    }
}

A: Problem
Besides some small flaws with your code (you should use try-with-ressources and the new IO library NIO) it looks totally fine and does not seem to have a logical error.

You are facing a different problem here. When trying to read Facebook you first need to login to your account, else you will see the starting page:

I guess you think that it is enough to login from your browser (for example Google Chrome) but that is not the case. Login information gets saved inside the local storage of the specific browser you have used, for example in its cookies. We talk from a session.

Showcase
As a small experiment visit Facebook with your Google Chrome and login. After that visit it with Internet Explorer, it will not be logged in and you are reading the starting page again.
The same happens with your Java code, you are simply reading the starting page because for "Javas browser" you are not logged in already. You can just check it by dumping the content your BufferedReader is reading:
final URL url = new URL("https://www.facebook.com");
try (final BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream()))) {
    // Read the whole page
    while (true) {
        final String line = br.readLine();
        if (line == null) {
            break;
        }

        System.out.println(line);
    }
}

Take a look at the output, it will probably be the source of the starting page.

Insights
After logging in to Facebook via my browser the website sends me the following cookies:

The highlighted c_user cookie is definitely relevant for the session. If I delete it and refresh the page then I am not logged in anymore.

Solution
In order to work your Java code would need to login itself, via filling the form and submitting it (or just by sending the corresponding POST request), then listening to the answer of Facebook and saving all those cookie information. However doing this by yourself would be a huge task, I would not recommend it. Instead you could use an API that emulates a browser from inside Java, for example HTMLUnit. Alternatively you could use libraries like Selenium with which you can control your favorite browser directly via its driver interface.
The other approach would be to hijack the session. There you try to extract the relevant cookie data from your browsers local files and recreate the cookie data inside your Java application, with the same content. Also a huge task without APIs for a non-expert.

Remarks
Now, very important, note that Facebook (and also other websites like Twitter) have a public available API (Facebook for Developers) which is designed to ease the interaction with automated software. There are of course also Java API Wrapper available, like Facebook4J. So you should just use those APIs if trying to scrape sites like Facebook.
Also note that many sites, also Facebook, state in their Terms of Service (TOS) that interaction via automated software which does not use their API is treated as violation of those terms. It could result in legal consequences.
An excerpt from the TOS:

*Safety

*You will not collect users' content or information, or otherwise access Facebook, using automated means (such as harvesting bots, robots, spiders, or scrapers) without our prior permission.

The Grave House is a 1685 saltbox set back on the corner of Academy Street and Route One. On the property, GCM has created two significant gardens. Gracing the area to the rear of the home is a traditional perennial garden appropriate to the house. Bordered by a split-rail fence supporting a grape vine, the garden completes the sense of living homestead.
To the east of the home, in the wooded section of the Grave House property, GCM installed a meandering woodchip path from which one may view the wildflowers and shade plants native to New England. This woodland and fern preserve with a shaded seated area serves not only as a restful bower in the center of town but also as an educational opportunity to highlight the importance and beauty of our native plants.

Vast and pristine, few places can rival the Faro area for wildlife, wilderness and dramatic terrain. Located in the North Yukon Plateau ecoregion, Faro is ideally situated for wildlife viewing and for a wide variety of outdoor activities such as fishing, hiking and canoeing.
The Town of Faro is a full service community, with a hotel, bed & breakfast accommodations, the Campbell Region Interpretive Centre & Tourist Information Centre, cross country ski trails, convenience stores, outdoor adventures businesses, gas station, full service municipal RV park, airport, nursing station, library, recreation centre, urban golf course, multi-use trail network, sheep viewing station, post office, RCMP, liquor store, Territorial agent, bank and the northernmost arboretum.
Faro is situated along the Tintina Trench, which is a huge valley so prominent it is clearly visible in satellite photos. Formed on an unusual geological fault, the Tintina Trench contains much of the mineral wealth that has been the life-blood of the Yukon's economy for the past hundred years. This valley also acts as a major wildlife corridor that comes dramatically to life every spring and fall during bird and animal migrations.
One of the most dramatic migrations is that of the sandhill cranes. Over a quarter million of these large birds pass overhead for days on end. The air fills with the sound of their unusual, plaintive cry as flocks glide in spiraling circles, seeking rising thermal air currents. The corridor is also noted for its many migrating tundra swans and peregrine falcons. Be sure not to miss the annual Crane & Sheep Viewing Festival in May.
Visitors to this area can expect to see moose, caribou, black or grizzly bears, wolf, lynx, fox, many bird species and Faro's own unique species of Stone sheep, the Fannin's. These sheep number only about 3000 in total and a small, distinctly colored herd of about 100 is found only near the town site of Faro. This herd may be seen from a variety of viewing facilities located within minutes from town. More information on the Fannin's sheep, together with a map of the sheep viewing stations, is available at the Campbell Region Interpretive Centre, which is open to the public from May to September.
Whether you are just passing through to discover the rest of the astonishing Campbell Region or planning to spend some time among the friendly residents of Faro, find out why it is the perfect place to visit on your quest for unforgettable experiences in the Yukon.

Meet the Biden Energy Official Who Fought To Shield China From US Solar Tariffs
Iconic American Magazine Fails To Disclose CCP Funding in Latest Print Edition
Time magazine has taken more than $700,000 from China Daily for sponsored content

Time magazine failed to disclose Chinese government funding for content published in its most recent print edition.
The magazine's June 21-28 double issue included an insert from China Daily, a media outlet controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. Disclosures on the insert label it as an advertisement from China Daily in Beijing and note that additional "information is on file with the DOJ, Washington DC." Chinese government funding for China Daily is not mentioned. China Daily registers with the Justice Department under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, a law aimed at tracking foreign government influence.
Advocacy groups have criticized news outlets for partnering with China Daily out of concerns that the organization is spreading propaganda in the West. Some companies, including the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, have ended content-sharing deals with China Daily because it is controlled by the Chinese government. The outlet has paid millions of dollars to publish content in Western magazines' and newspapers' print and online editions.
Time began working with China Daily last year. Foreign-agent disclosures filed by China Daily in May show the outlet paid Time $700,000 over the past six months, by far the highest outlay to any American news company. In addition to the print inserts, the magazine publishes sponsored China Daily content on its website, which also does not acknowledge Chinese government funding.
Much of the China Daily content does not appear to be aggressive Chinese propaganda, with many of the articles portraying life in China and Chinese culture in a positive light. But some of the paid China Daily content has drawn criticism from advocacy groups because of its clear political agenda.
Time published one China Daily article last December that touted drones made by a company called DJI for use in agriculture. The article appeared days after the Trump administration placed DJI on a trade blacklist out of concerns that the company's drones posed a national security threat to the U.S.
China Daily also sponsored content in the Financial Times, the Los Angeles Times, and Foreign Policy magazine, according to foreign agent disclosures. Two Tibetan advocacy groups criticized Foreign Policy over a series of China Daily articles last month that touted Communist Party policies in Tibet. The International Campaign for Tibet called the articles an "affront" to Tibetans who oppose Communist Party rule.
Time has not responded to repeated requests for comment about its partnership with China Daily.
