Achna is one of the largest and productive villages of the red villages in the district of Ammochostos surrounded by the villages Kalopsida, Acheritou, Avgorou, Ormidia, Xylotymbou, Pergamos and Markassyka.
The original name of Achna was Athna. According to the Archimandrite Kprianos it was said that Agios Kendeas lived in Athnan actually referring to Achna. This tradition is based on the fact that the Holly cave was the residence of the saint for quite a while. There is also the witness that states that the name of the village was Athna on the Venetian map of Franco in 1570. There it is mentioned as Atna however this must have been a typographical error.
Achna, with the original name of Athna is first seen on historical documents of the Frank period during the 15th century. It was a small village which was owned by the royal house of the Louzinians. It is not mentioned how many residents it had. During the end of the Turkish period (around 1850) it is mentioned in the catalogues of Talaat-Effendi that there were 31 residents who paid taxed. If we calculate according to the data given by Mas Latrie that for every 14,120 tax residents there are 74,000 souls that means that the residents in Achna were about 162. In 1878 Cyprus was given to England by the Turks and there we begin to have the first official inventories of the exact population.
During 1850 there were 162 residents during the Turkish period. In 1881 there are 407 during the inventory of the English there is an increase of 245 residents, about 151% in 30 years. It seems that the increase is due to other reasons rather than an increase in births. It seems that there is an increase due to the arrival of the surrounding villages of Tracheia, Pilatou and others.
During 1911 the population is 742 residents. Again there is an increase of 335 people within 30 years, which is 82, 30%. This means that other villagers are continuing to move to Achna. In 1930 the residents are 1238. There is an increase of 496 residents within 20 years that is 67% which is again due to the constant relocation of other villagers. In 1946 the residents are 1986. Here there is an increase of 748 residents in 15 years, that is 60, 42% which is because of the intake from the other villages.
During 1960 the residents were 1833. There is a decrease of population of about 153 residents within 15 years that is 7.70%. The decrease in population must be due to the migration mainly to England from the harsh years of the freedom of EOKA 1955-1959 as well as the end of WWII.
During 1973 the residents were 1971. The first inventory of the Republic of Cyprus showed that there was an increase of 138 residents during 13 years that is 7.52 %. This still did not reach the normal number due to the fact that some residents who were scientists, teachers were stationed outside of Achna.
During 1991 there were 1900 residents. There is a decrease of 71 residents in the 18 years of occupation during the Turkish invasion of Attila. 1991 1900. Some of the residents went to other parts of Cyprus or left to go abroad.
It was Wednesday on the 28th of August 1974 when the cry 'Go go, the Turks are coming'. All the mothers ran to get their children and the son tried to get his parents out of the village. The mothers gabbed one piece of clothing while they heard the machines of the Turkish tanks while they were in the field between Makrasyka and Kalopsida taking over the village. The residents of Achna who had welcomed the thousands of refugees in their village where now experiencing it themselves. Wednesday, the 28th of August 1974 was the day which killed thousands of souls of Achnioton.
The history of the village begins in 750 B.C. Excavations were done in Achna village during 1882, four years after the island passed from the Turkish hands to the British hands. The archaeological excavation brought many findings to light. The altar of Aphrodite, Artemidos, Apollona and Pana, ancient tombs many idols in terracotta were found of the Hellenistic period as well as other items.
Today in Agia Marina there is a lookout. Many houses have been destroyed and weeds have grown everywhere, not only due to the war but also through time. In the cemetery the tombs have been lost in the weeds and the crosses have fallen over. The bank hasn't received clients for 42 years and Lambrakis shop is deserted. It still waits for the footballers and their fans to come from the stadium.
Before 1974 it was a virgin forest in which the British soldiers sometimes did training in. The shepherds of Achna would find shade under the trees when they worked there. All of this until the 20th of July 1974. The forest of Achna was transformed into a refuge area for thousands of refugees who went there to be saved, as they were chased down by the aeroplanes and the solders of Attila. From the villages of Mesaoria and the Amochostos district, even from the Kerynia district people ran with the clothes on their backs for the forest of Achna because it was British base and that they would be safe there. So the pine trees, the eucalyptus trees and the orange trees became the refuge for the hurt and the chased refugees of our country. On the 30th of August 1974 the Turkish tanks went into the village along with Turkish soldiers. The Achniotes were the last refugees of them all and they also found refuge in the forest which kept 60 to 80 thousand refugees. It was later called Dasaki of Achna.
In the forest of Achna, Cypriot and foreign reporters of the media reported astonishing scenes of human pain and misery which made their way around the world. Children who slept nearly naked on the ground. Elderly people and children were fed canned food for months. Elderly people who slept on the wet ground without a blanket to cover themselves. Women dressed in black crying for their killed or lost children and did not have a piece of cloth to wipe their tears.
In 1976-77 the primary school operated for the regugees in the Dasaki Achnas. The classrooms were storerooms with tin roofs. The classrooms were few and so some classes moved or were mixed for example the teacher taught grade three and five in the same class. The United Nations, the Red Cross and other organisations sent children presents during Christmas and Easter. There was also food for the children which included rice pudding, milk, cheese and canned meat. For many children between 1976-1982 the presents which they received at school were the only ones they received.
A Community primary school operated in Achna before the British occupation of 1878, but the large building of the boys' school was built around 1880. It could fit 150 students. As it is witnessed by the Blue Book of the British government of 1899-190, there were 27 boys and 4 girls and the school was for both genders. It is unknown which 4 girls went to school with all those boys. Within the teachers of the school was Niko Oikonomides, the accountant of the Archbishop. He was the brother of the principle's mother. The principle was Konstantinos Spyridakis who later on became the Minister of Education in Cyprus. The all girls school was built around 1905 in the church square of Agia Marina. It was a small room which could accommodate 50 students at the most.

At a recent lunch I got into a discussion about the current tensions within the Liberal Party, and more particularly the extent to which they were due to what a friend called the 'irresponsible' behaviour of Mr Abbott. I had written about Mr Abbott's situation before, and offered some of that comment at the lunch. My friend would have none of it. Mr Abbott should have left Parliament at the first opportunity, and if he stayed, should have maintained a dignified silence. My view, set out in the conclusion to the essay linked above, is that, 'He ought to be allowed to say what he thinks without his automatically attracting the 'naughty boy' label by doing so.' His address to the Centre for Independent Studies on 29 June is a good example. He does not say anything adverse about the Turnbull Government, says that he should have been more forceful when he was PM, and offers an interesting discussion of the options about submarines. But the media comment was about yet another attack on Mr Turnbull.
Other matters intruded into that my conversation, but I have thought about it since, and devote this essay to whether there is any rule or convention that should, most of the time, guide former PMs in their behaviour after their fall from power. There is, as it happens, no formal guide, and there are of course different reasons for the fall from power, and of course different outcomes as well.
You can lose an election, where the losing leader offers his resignation (not always taken). You can be defeated in a party-room vote, as happened to Mr Hawke, and later to Mr Rudd, then to Ms Gillard, then to Mr Abbott. Ms Gillard manoeuvred Mr Rudd into agreeing that whoever lost the vote would leave Parliament. She lost, and perforce left. He left shortly after his defeat at the polls some months later. R. G. Menzies resigned in August 1941 when he felt that the government's position was unworkable, probably anticipating a vote against him in the joint party room. He was replaced as leader by Billy Hughes, and by Arthur Fadden as Prime Minister. But he didn't leave Parliament, and indeed returned to power in 1949, for another sixteen years or so, retiring as PM and from his seat at a time that he chose.
I think the same goes for Australia. Mr Abbott appears to have no greater interest in life than parliamentary politics. Mr Rudd had his eye on a UN post, or so it was said. In any case, it was plain that he saw the world, rather than Australia, as his oyster. He is presently, or was in February, the president of the Asia Society, a think tank based NewYork which I once visited and spoke at. Ms Gillard is a sort of roving adjunct professor, but for the most part stays out of focussed comment on Australian politics. John Howard has joined the ranks of the international former political captains, having failed to gain election as president of the International Cricket Council. Paul Keating thunders from time to time in the prints, radio and television. Bob Hawke recently launched, or was at the launch, of a beer in his name. Malcolm Fraser had a property in Victoria to return to. There's not much of a pattern there.
So, let us to return to Mr Abbott. If the Liberal Party were a strong, united and confident party, then Mr Abbott might well be a senior member of its Government, as former PM Sir Alec Douglas-Home was in the Heath Government. It is not. I cannot be sure how much of what I read, see and hear is the work of the press gallery, but it seems to be the case that the Liberals now have two streams or factions, a 'progressive' faction and a 'conservative' one. Mr Turnbull is very much of the progressive camp, while Mr Abbott is very much of the conservative group. The latter faction is not even conservative enough to satisfy Cory Bernardi, who left the Liberal Party altogether to form a Conservative party, which apparently has some supporters within the Liberal Party, though no one yet has come out to join him.
If we set aside Mr Abbott's understandable crossness at having been displaced by the man he earlier displaced as Leader of the Opposition, and his feeling that the current Government is just 'Labor-lite', what ought he to do? It would be difficult indeed to sit on the back-benches and maintain a dignified silence. He could do it if he thought that after the electoral shambles in 2019 (assuming such an outcome), Mr Turnbull would resign, and he (Tony Abbott) would valiantly pick up the reins again, as Menzies did after 1944. He is young enough to put in a couple of terms waiting to return to office.
His difficulty is that he has ideas and he wants to share them. Like Kevin Rudd in a similar position, he has support from discontented back-benchers, and in the present case from the true conservatives within the party. They look to him for leadership. And as I wrote in my own essay, whatever he does, whatever he says, journalists will point at yet another example of destabilisation. It's not an easy path.
Those who want the business of government to proceed in an orderly way because they are part of it or have been part of it, find all this inter-party feuding detestable, if only because while it is going on Ministers are distracted from their real work, whicb is getting policy discussed, developed and put into place. For them Mr Abbott should leave Parliament for the good of the nation, or if he must stay, become the first Trappist MP, speaking only when it is absolutely necessary.
I see no reason why Mr Abbott should remain silent, and there is certainly no convention, let alone rule, to suggest that that is the proper thing for him to do. Indeed, we are used to Labor heavies quarrelling with one another, and using the State and Federal conferences of the Party, not to mention those of the ACTU and the major unions, to argue out their positions. It may not be what we are used to in the case of the Liberal Party, but I see no better alternative at the moment. Nor can I see why it is OK for Labor but somehow wrong for the Libs.
My summary is that what we are seeing is a further example of the crumbling of the old two-party system. The Liberal Party was always a coalition of 'liberals' and 'conservative', 'dries' and 'wets', held together by the reality or prospect of power. You can say comparable things about the ALP. At the moment the ALP can simply shut up and watch its opponents strangle themselves.
For both sides governing is not the fun it used to be. Too many issues are unsolvable, too little money is available, there are too many demands on the public purse and too many single-issue lobby groups. No leader can bring the warring factions together, not Mr Turnbull and not Mr Abbott. What we may be seeing is the move towards two new parties, a Liberal Party and a Conservative Party.
It won't happen now, but it might when non-Labor is in Opposition.

Mental Health and Work: Australia
Tackling mental ill-health of the working-age population is a key issue for labour market and social policies in OECD countries. OECD governments increasingly recognise that policy has a major role to play in keeping people with mental ill-health in employment or bringing those outside of the labour market back to it, and in preventing mental illness. This report on Australia is the ninth and last in a series of reports looking at how the broader education, health, social and labour market policy challenges identified in Sick on the Job? Myths and Realities about Mental Health and Work (OECD, 2012) are being tackled in a number of OECD countries. It concludes that policy thinking in Australia shows well-advanced awareness both of the costs of mental illness for society as a whole and of the health benefits of employment. However, challenges remain in: making employment issues a concern of the health care services; helping young people succees in their future working lives; making the workplace a safe, supportive psychosocial environment; and better designing and targeting employment services for jobseekers with mental ill-health.

Pope Francis Will Not Receive Pompeo in His Visit to Italy
Pope Francis at the Saint Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, April 9, 2020. | Photo: EFE
According to experts, relations between the Vatican and the U.S. have experienced an extraordinary hardening in recent days.
Pope Francis Sunday announced that he will not receive the U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who will visit Italy next week, because "that could influence the U.S. election campaign."
Pope Francis Demands To Reduce Sanctions Against Countries
Although in October 2019, The Pope received Pompeo at the Vatican, the Holiness assured that "on this occasion, I will not meet with political personalities amid electoral campaigns to avoid any kind of manipulation."
The Pope's refusal came after Washington criticized a China and the Vatican's agreement renewal regarding the appointment of Chinese Catholic bishops.
"I will fly back to Brazil hoping I can have the same drive as Pope Francis to fight for a better world," @LulaOficial said. https://t.co/rOtrL2rq56
— teleSUR English (@telesurenglish) February 15, 2020
"Two years ago, the Holy See reached an agreement with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), hoping to help China's Catholics. Yet the CCP's abuse of the faithful has only gotten worse. " Pompeo tweeted last week.
The Holy See "should renounce to the agreement since it would jeopardize its moral authority," he added.
On September 29 and 30, Pompeo will visit Italy to attend a symposium on the advancement and defense of religious freedom organized by the U.S. Embassy in the European country.

Trey Songz fans may not have been anticipating a new project, but Trigga has delivered a surprise release. On Wednesday (Jan. 11), the R&B crooner unleashed Anticipation III, a collaborative effort with his artist MIKExANGEL.
Up next for Trey is Tremaine, a new album that follows 2015's Trigga Reloaded and 2014's Trigga. In December, he revealed what fans should expect from his forthcoming material.
AIII arrives shortly after Trey and MIKE teamed up for a remix to PARTYNEXTDOOR's "Come and See Me" and after his collaborative Trappy New Years project with Fabolous. It follows less positive news, too. Last month, Trey was arrested at a Detroit concert and charged with felony assault on a police officer and aggravated assault.
Listen to Anticipation III below.

What is the Planning Commission?
How can I check the zoning of a piece of property?
How do I rezone my property?
How do I open a business in my house (City of Glasgow)?
Were do I obtain private deed restrictions for my subdivision?
How do I subdivide my property?
What is the minimum lot size in Barren County?
What is the population of Barren County?
Why do Communities Plan?
The Planning Commission is an appointed body that coordinates community-planning efforts and makes recommendations to local legislative units. The Joint City-County Planning Commission of Barren County was established in 1972. The Commission is made up of 13 representatives appointed by the following legislative bodies:
Barren County – 5 representatives
Cave City – 2 representatives
Glasgow – 5 representatives
Park City – 1 representative
To verify the zoning of a property, you will need to provide the Zoning Administrator or Building Inspector with a precise property address and cross street information or closest intersecting roads. The Zoning Map can be found online at http://jccpc-ky.com/documents/zoning-maps/.
The Maps contained on this site are representations only and are not intended to replace the Official Maps. Click here for disclaimer.
Rezoning requests must be reviewed by the Planning Commission and City Council based on the adopted Comprehensive Plan and its potential impacts on the area.
Applications may be approved if they comply with the Comprehensive Plan or if the applicant proves/Planning Commission finds the existing zoning is inappropriate and the proposed zoning request is appropriate, and/or there have been major changes of an economic, physical or social nature within the area which were not anticipated at the time the Comprehensive Plan was adopted.
(Please contact the Planning Commission office for complete details.)
A Concept Development Plan showing how the property is to be used is required for most rezoning requests.
This is typically referred to as a Home Occupation and is regulated by the Board of Adjustments as a Conditional Use.
Home occupations are limited to professional office or customary home occupations, which shall be those occupations that the Board of Adjustments finds to be non-objectionable in residential areas of the City, conducted within the principal building but only by a person residing in the dwelling, provided that tools or instruments used in the pursuance of these occupations are ordinarily found in the home and that not more than 25% of the total floor area in any dwelling unit is devoted to such use.
No displays or change in facade such as an unusual looking window or door shall indicate from the exterior that the building is being utilized in whole or in part for any purpose other than a dwelling. Click here for Board of Adjustments Application.
The Planning Office does not keep deed restrictions on file for subdivisions because they are beyond the enforcement jurisdiction of the Planning Commission.
In most cases deed restrictions are recorded in a miscellaneous book with the County Clerk's Office (270-651-3783) and noted on the recorded deed.
Subdivisions are classified into two categories: Major and Minor.
Minor Subdivisions of five (5) lots or less with no new street construction, including the improvement or widening of existing streets, or no major construction of site improvements shall require only approval of the Administrative Officer.
Please Note: Any series of Minor Subdivisions totaling five (5) or more lots from the parent tract shall comply with the Water Supply and Fire Hydrant Requirements of County Ordinance #148 and Article 7 of the Subdivision Regulations.
To initiate review of a Minor Subdivision Plat the developer shall submit the following documents to the Planning Commission's Administrative Officer:
Application and applicable Fees
The original mylar copy of the Minor Subdivision Plat
One (1) blue line print of the mylar
One (1) copy of the mylar on letter size paper (8-1/2" x 11")
One (1) copy of the mylar on legal size paper (8-1/2" x 14"), or 11" x 17"
Major subdivisions of property include the division of six (6) or more lots, a subdivision involving new street construction or the improvement or widening of an existing street, and a subdivision involving the major construction of site improvements.
Major subdivisions require review and approval by the Planning Commission. All applications for major subdivisions must be submitted by the filing deadline and include an application, appropriate fee, and eight (8) copies of the plat. See the Subdivision Regulations for all development requirements.
The local District Health Department Environmentalist may determine the required minimum lot area for a new subdivision of land based on site evaluation or other health factors.
However, in no case shall a lot not served by public sewer be less than one hundred twenty-five (125) feet wide at the front yard setback line and twenty-five thousand (25,000) square feet in area.
Lots served by public sewer shall be at least seventy-five (75) feet wide at the front-yard setback line and seven thousand five hundred (7,500) square feet in area.

Perfect now lets start defining the final color and shading for our image with a color balance layer on top adjusted as shown.
Followed by a levels layer with these settings.
Grab the brush and a big soft tip as shown.
Softly mask off the darkening effect of the levels layer as shown here.
And now we continue with a Curves layer adjusted as indicated here.
In this case fill the mask with black and just paint in the effect of the curves layer, that lifts the blacks with a small soft brush.
At this point it is a good idea to go back to the hair layer and paint in a bit more as shown.
Then in sections like this where we practically cut the hair we need to place it back on top the painted layer as shown here.
Perfect! now lets make a color fill layer right on top of the painted hair and select this dark red for it.
Fill in the mask with black, set the layer to multiply and select this brush tip shown here.
Enable pen pressure on transfer from the brush palette and with white mask in some dark blood on the hair.
Create a new layer as shown here and choose this brush tip at about 4px.
Now use this brush to paint in some more veins on the chest area, and hand. On the chest area you might want to make the brush a bit larger at the beginning and smaller at the ends.
Next up lets create another levels layer on top and adjust it as shown.
OK we are close to finishing our tutorial so now lets just dial in some final adjustments and dressings to the image. Lets start by adding another curves layer on top and adjust it as shown here.
Grab the big soft brush tip and mask off as shown.
Lets create yet another color balance layer and this time choose this dark brown.
Set the layer mode to overlay and reduce the opacity to 38%; then mask off as shown here.
Great now open up this texture and bring it over in a new layer; then scale it a bit to cover the whole image.
Then desaturated the layer, invert it and set the layer mode to overlay. Finally create a mask for it.

Der Äskulapstab oder Asklepiosstab ist ein von einer Schlange umwundener Stab und wird auch als Schlangenstab bezeichnet. Ursprünglich war er ein Attribut des Asklepios (deutsch: Äskulap), des Gottes der Heilkunde in der griechischen Mythologie. Heute ist er das Symbol des ärztlichen und pharmazeutischen Standes.

Ähnliche Symbole sind der Hermesstab in der griechischen Mythologie oder die eherne Schlange des Mose im Alten Testament. Der Hermesstab bzw. Merkurstab ist gewöhnlich jedoch kein Symbol, das in der  Medizin benutzt wird, dennoch wird auf Grund einer Verwechslung der Hermesstab im US-Medizinwesen als Symbol geführt.

Das Unicodesymbol des Äskulapstabes ist U+2695 ⚕ Staff of Aesculapius und befindet sich im Unicodeblock Verschiedene Symbole.

Ikonographie

Asklepios

Asklepios (auch Äskulap genannt, nach der lateinischen Namensform Aesculapius) war der Sohn von Apollon (Gott des Lichts und der Heilung) und der thessalischen Fürstentochter Koronis. Er wurde von dem heilkundigen Kentauren Cheiron erzogen und in der Heilkunde ausgebildet. Weil er als Arzt einen Toten wieder zum Leben auferweckte, erzürnte er Hades, den Herrscher des Totenreiches. Auf dessen Drängen wurde er von Zeus mit einem Blitz erschlagen, weil er sich erdreistet hatte, dem Willen der Götter entgegenzuwirken.

Dargestellt wurde Asklepios meist als bärtiger Mann, der sich auf einen Stab stützt, der von einer Schlange (Natter) umwunden wird.

Die Schlange
Asklepios soll zu seinen Lebzeiten, bei Wanderungen oder auf dem Weg zu Kranken, immer eine Äskulapnatter dabei gehabt haben, die sich um seinen Wanderstab ringelte. Einige Darstellungen zeigen sogar die Verehrung von Asklepios selbst in Schlangenform. In den griechischen Heiltempeln, die dem Gott Asklepios geweiht waren, wurden Schlangen gehalten.

In vielen Kulturen weltweit wurden Schlangen mit Göttern in Verbindung gebracht (vgl. Symbolik und Mythologie der Schlangen). Seit Menschengedenken gilt die Schlange als ein bedeutendes mystisches Wesen; so entwendet etwa der Gottkönig Gilgamesch im gleichnamigen Epos einer Schlange das lebenspendende Zauberkraut. Im Altertum wurde sie schließlich zum Symbol der Heilkunde. Ihre Charakteristika "Verjüngung durch Häutung", "Scharfsichtigkeit/Wachsamkeit" sowie "Heilkraft" (aus Schlangenfleisch wurden Pharmaka hergestellt) machten sie zum Sinnbild ärztlicher Tugenden und zeigten so die Vorzüge der Medizin.

Der Stab
Auch zur Bedeutung des Stabes gibt es viele Theorien. Einerseits wird der Stab als Zepter oder Herrschaftssymbol verstanden, andere Forscher vertreten die Ansicht, er wäre ein einfacher Wanderstab, den Asklepios stets bei sich trug. Da er als Verbindung zwischen Himmel und Erde betrachtet wurde, hatte schon der Stab allein magische Kräfte.

Von klassischen Archäologen wird darauf hingewiesen, dass Asklepios sich in der gleichen Haltung auf seinen Stab stützt, wie der freie Bürger der Polis, der sich aufs Verweilen in der Agora einrichtet. Solche Darstellungen findet man vielfach auf antiken Grabstelen. Hierin und in der Art wie er sich in Abbildungen den Menschen zuwendet, unterscheidet sich Asklepios grundsätzlich von den Darstellungen der olympischen Götter.

Doch schon Jahrhunderte bevor die Asklepios-Kulte beschrieben sind, wird von Heilungen berichtet in Verbindung mit einer Schlange an einem Stab: Die eherne Schlange aus dem 4. Buch Mose kommt als Ursprung des Symbols in Betracht.

Der Stab ist ein persönliches Attribut des Asklepios. Es gibt Abbildungen des Asklepiosrituals (vgl. unten) mit Schlangen, aber ohne Stab. Hygieia, die Tochter des Asklepios, wurde mit einer Schlange dargestellt – ohne Stab.

Theorie des Medinawurmes

Eine Hypothese zur Herkunft des Symbols bringt den Äskulapstab mit einer im Altertum und heute noch gebräuchlichen Praxis zur Entfernung des Medinawurms (Dracunculus medinensis) in Verbindung. Dieser zwischen 30 und 120 cm lange Wurm befindet sich im letzten Stadium seines Lebenszyklus unter der Haut des Menschen und bohrt sich von dort eine Öffnung nach außen, über die er seine Larven abgibt. Zur Entfernung des Wurmes wird dieser dann auf ein gespaltenes Holzstäbchen gewickelt, wobei täglich maximal 10 cm aufgewickelt werden dürfen.

Die Wurm-Hypothese stammt von dem deutschen Hygieniker Reiner Müller. Für die Behauptung, es handle sich ursprünglich um einen Wurm, fehlen jedoch zeitgenössische bzw. frühgeschichtliche Belege. Medinawürmer waren zwar im Alten Ägypten bekannt, jedoch nicht in Griechenland. Der Ursprung des Symbols wäre nach dieser Hypothese somit nicht in Griechenland zu suchen.

Ein Medinawurm ist etwa einen Millimeter dick. Eine Schlange, wie sie auf den Asklepios-Darstellungen zu sehen ist, hat eine etwa hundertmal größere Dicke, ihr Gewicht wäre etwa um den Faktor 10.000 größer. Entsprechend sind auch die zum Aufwickeln des Wurms verwendeten Hölzchen viel kleiner als der Stab des Asklepios, und die Art der Aufwicklung sieht anders aus (vgl. Abbildung). Der Medizinhistoriker Bernd Grün hält mit Erna Lesky die Medinawurm-Hypothese für widerlegt.

Geschichte

Das Asklepiosritual
Das Asklepiosritual etablierte sich ab dem 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr. bis zum Ausgang der Antike zu einem der erfolgreichsten Kulte. Die Patienten legten sich im meist außerhalb der Stadt gelegenen Asklepiostempel zum Heilschlaf (siehe Enkoimesis) nieder. Im Traum erschien ihnen dann der Arzt und empfahl Diäten und andere Behandlungsmethoden zur Heilung. Manchmal wurde der Patient im Traum auch von einer Schlange besucht oder gebissen und dadurch geheilt. Die sibyllinischen Bücher empfahlen anlässlich einer Seuche 291 v. Chr. die Kultübertragung von Epidaurus nach Rom, wobei die Schlange als Begleittier, Helferin und Wahrzeichen dargestellt wurde. Hier bekam Asklepios den lateinischen Namen Aesculapius.

Asklepios und Apollo als Götter der Heilung
Asklepios unterscheidet sich von seinem Vater, dem Apollo, als Heilgott. In den Kulten der Antike durften sich die Kranken dem heiligen Bezirk des Apollo nicht nähern, dem des Halbgottes Asklepios schon. Dadurch wurde Apollo, der Gott des Lichts, zunehmend Konzepten der göttlichen Fernheilung, Asklepios denen der tätigen therapeutischen Praxis zugeordnet. Noch zu römischen Zeiten standen die beiden Kulte nicht in Konkurrenz, Asklepios und Apollo wie auch die Salus wurden auf der dem Asklepios geweihten Tiberinsel verehrt – bei der Pestepidemie von 180 v. Chr. in Rom etwa stellte man Statuen aller drei Heilgötter miteinander auf. Später (ab dem 2. Jh.) wird dem Asklepios der Telesphorus, der Genius der Genesung, beigestellt.

Während aber die Verehrung der beiden anderen Gottheiten schon um die Zeitenwende verschwand, erhielt sich der Kult des Asklepios – in seiner Symbolik bis heute. Wiederaufgegriffen wurde der apollinische Aspekt der Heilkunst etwa wieder von Paracelsus, bei ihm aber in negativer Deutung der mystischen Heilung ().

Heraldik
In der Heraldik (Wappenkunde) wird der Äskulapstab in Familien- sowie Kommunalwappen abgebildet. In Streitkräftewappen findet das Symbol ebenfalls Verwendung.

Chris Froome and Sky ready for 'tough' Tour de France team time trial
Chris Froome is hoping to keep hold of the 2015 Tour de France race lead after Sunday's team time trial, but expects a strong challenge from Tejay van Garderen's BMC squad
Nigel Wynn July 12, 2015 10:13 am
Team Sky on stage three of the 2015 Criterium du Dauphine
Tour de France leader Chris Froome has said that Team Sky are ready for today's key team time trial stage in Brittany, but predicts a hard fight to retain the yellow jersey – not least from overall rival Tejay van Garderen and his BMC squad.
The undulating TTT route from Vannes to Plumelec finishes with a 1.7-kilometre climb, Côte de Cadoudal, which will drain riders of any energy they have left after nine straight days of racing. The TTT stage usually appears earlier in the race, so fatigue and injury will play a part in deciding the outcome of this key stage.
Froome said that several Sky riders kept something back during Saturday's stage, mindful of the effort required today: "We really did try and approach the stage quite conservatively as a team given in the back of our minds we have the team time trial tomorrow," said Froome after Saturday's stage to Mûr-de-Bretagne.
Chris Froome on stage eight of the 2015 Tour de France, where he finished in eighth place
"That's really quite an important stage for us. That's a day where half a minute could be won or lost depending on how it goes.
"It's going to be tough, especially with BMC breathing right down my neck and Tejay right there. But we've got a really strong group of guys for the team time trial and hopefully we can be up there with the best."
BMC are the current team time trial world champions, and won the Critérium du Dauphiné TTT in June, where they beat Sky by a significant 35-second margin to unseat Sky's Peter Kennaugh from the race lead.
BMC's line-up includes stage one winner Rohan Dennis, who was also the rider that took the lead from Kennaugh in the Dauphiné. This time, they are riding for van Garderen who goes into the TTT just 13 seconds behind Froome in the general classification.
The team time trial stage nine is far from flat: pacing will be key to setting a good time
"With the team I have and what they have shown so far, I think we are pretty confident," van Garderen said. "We are just going to go out there and ride as hard as we can. We have four world champions in that discipline on the team, so we will put out the best performance that we think we can."
Both BMC and Sky have so far not suffered the loss of riders through injury that has affected other teams, notably top TTT performers Orica-GreenEdge. The Australian squad won the Tour de France TTT in 2013, setting a new record for the fastest average speed of any Tour stage in history – an astonishing 57.841kmh.
This year, however, Orica has lost Simon Gerrans, Daryl Impey and Michael Albasini to injury in the opening week and are down to six men. One of those – Michael Matthews – is suffering from broken ribs, despite continuing in the race. Each team must finish with five riders, leaving Orica with little margin for riders dropping out or falling back.
Etixx-QuickStep and Trek Factory Racing are also without their time trial powerhouses Tony Martin and Fabian Cancellara, both of whom withdrew from the race due to crashes while in the race lead.
The Tinkoff-Saxo, Movistar and Astana teams of GC contenders Alberto Contador, Nairo Quintana and Vincenzo Nibali have fared better. Movistar in particular have a contingent of strong time trial riders, including British national champion Alex Dowsett and Italian TT specialist Adriano Malori that could provide an upset.
After the TTT, the riders travel south for the race's first rest day on Monday before tackling the Pyrenees.

Auto-Tuning – David Archuleta Doesn't Need It
In the recent aftermath of The Gregory Brothers, a sibling band out of Brooklyn, New York, which have become a hit on YouTube with a series of videos that Auto-Tune cable newscasts and political speeches using computers to make their voices sound like whiny robots, Auto-Tune technology continues to ride a culture high. Now the voice-altering effects are migrating from recording studios to YouTube and mobile phones.
The group, which also tours as a low-fi sound band, started its series of videos called "Auto-Tune the News" during the 2008 presidential debates and has gained millions of fans in recent months.
CNN spoke with Andrew Gregory, a 27 year old member of the band, about the popularity of Auto-Tune – the trademarked name for the popular pitch correction software – and the role of technology in music and society. The following is an edited transcript of John D. Sutter's interview.
Do you ever use Auto-Tune in performances, like in your band?
We've never used it live. We're no Ashlee Simpson. But I think we've used it a little bit on our record. Pretty much on any record you listen to these days there's some level of Auto-Tune on it, even if it's a very, very small amount.
Do you think it's hurting music at all that people expect a singer's pitch to be perfect?
It means that people who can't sing as well are becoming famous singers. But I don't know, that's why I love going to see live music, because that really sorts out the real singers from the not-so-real singers.
END OF TRANSCRIPT
Interesting enough I heard back during American Idol Season 7 about auto-tuning and was quite floored. Perhaps that's why so many artist sound great on records but not in person.
We all know that David sounds so great in his live concert performances as well as his albums. This is not something he needs to use and am sure with his love of acoustical and organic sounds he will never need this technology as an artist.
The following article does reveal many artists do us this technology and it's sad we have come to this type of singing with such a high price. Are we all so critical that we can't enjoy the beauty of the pure voice; do they need enhancement? Well, I for one would prefer the kind of voice David Archuleta and, I am sure, many others give us.
Singers hit out at rise of Auto-Tune
Edward Helmore in New York – The Observer
In the decade since Cher's hit "Believe," with its distinctive robotic warble, singers have been relying on revolutionary software called Auto-Tune to correct and synthesize their wayward pitches.
But now the manipulated sound is everywhere and a backlash is building. Last week, the reigning king of hip-hop, Jay-Z, launched an attack on the process in a new song D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune). He says: "I know we are facing a recession, but the music y'all making gonna make it the Great Depression."
The song has sparked a battle with a rival singer, T-Pain, who believes so strongly in Auto-Tune that he has joined forces with its maker, a California software firm, to release a version as an iPhone application that quickly moved to the top of the sales chart. Though the pair has since cooled their language, T-Pain lashed out. "Jay-Z is 59 years old. I don't think he has the right to say what's good and what's not. I think if anything is dead, it should be him…."
Manipulating the voice, says T-Pain, is the future and a welcome change from unadorned singing which, he says, people have been doing for centuries. "Now everyone wants to be a Transformer."
But do they? Some say using machines to manipulate pitch erases the distinctiveness, resonance and emotional power of the human voice. Perfect pitch is rare, and natural flaws and imperfections are often what make a voice memorable and affecting. It is also a question of fidelity. Critics say that if every voice is corrected and anyone can achieve perfect pitch, then singing itself could lose its value. "I can't recognize real singing any more," the singer Moby said recently.
George Martin, the Beatles producer, says singers are rarely satisfied with their sound, and adding effects such as reverb are just tricks of the trade. "John [Lennon] was never satisfied with the sound of his voice," he told the New Yorker. – guardian.co.uk © Guardian News and Media 2009

June 13 (Bloomberg) -- Soybeans fell for a second day in Chicago after a government report yesterday showed U.S. production may be larger than analysts expected. Corn and wheat were little changed.
U.S. soybean output may be a record 3.39 billion bushels from the 2013-14 harvest that starts Sept. 1, unchanged from last month's forecast and 12 percent larger than the previous season when crops were hurt by drought, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said yesterday. Analysts in a Bloomberg survey expected the USDA to cut its forecast to 3.371 billion bushels as rain delayed planting. Inventories may more than double from a year earlier to 265 million bushels, the USDA said.
"Forecasts for a significant build in 2013-14 U.S. soybean carryout could put November soybean futures in a downtrend," Dan Cekander, the director of grain market analysis at Newedge USA LLC, said in an e-mailed report. "Forecasts for five to six days of drier weather next week across the Corn Belt could allow increased U.S. soybean planting progress."
Soybeans for November delivery dropped 0.3 percent to $13.0975 a bushel by 5:46 a.m. on the Chicago Board of Trade, extending yesterday's 1 percent decline.
Corn for December delivery was little changed at $5.3725 a bushel. The USDA's forecast for U.S. corn production was larger than analysts expected at 14.005 billion bushels, which will help stockpiles more than double from a year earlier to 1.95 billion bushels.
Wheat for July delivery was little changed at $6.8325 a bushel in Chicago. In Paris, milling wheat for November delivery rose 0.6 percent to 198.75 euros ($265) a metric ton on NYSE Liffe. Earlier, it fell as much as 1 percent to 195.50 euros, the lowest for a most-active contract since May 2012.
U.S. wheat output was forecast at 2.08 billion bushels, up from last month's prediction of 2.057 billion, the USDA said in a report yesterday. While drought damage late last year will reduce the local harvest, global output will rise 6.1 percent.
"The USDA expressed confidence and optimism in the upcoming crops for all three grains," Joyce Liu, an analyst at Phillip Futures Pte, said by phone from Singapore today. "They didn't do any downward adjustments or their downward adjustments were minor and way less than market expectations."

Cincinnati Reds' Eugenio Suárez OK after hit-by-pitch on left hand

Cincinnati Reds' Eugenio Suárez OK after hit-by-pitch on left hand Eugenio Suárez said he had a hand contusion, but all of the tests were negative for a break and he will see how he feels after Thursday's off day. Check out this story on cincinnati.com: https://www.cincinnati.com/story/sports/mlb/reds/2019/05/29/cincinnati-reds-david-bell-ejected-after-eugenio-suarez-hit-pitch/1278632001/

Eugenio Suárez left Wednesday's game in the 8th inning after he was hit by a pitch on his left hand against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Bobby Nightengale, Cincinnati Enquirer
After Eugenio Suárez was hit by a pitch on his left hand to open the eighth inning in Wednesday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, he needed to know whether it was on purpose.
Suárez walked toward the mound to talk to Pirates reliever Clay Holmes on his way to first base after manager David Bell and a trainer checked on him. The benches didn't clear as Suárez and Holmes had a brief conversation.
"I don't know if they are going to hit me on purpose," Suárez said. "That's why I walked up to him and asked him if he hit me on purpose. He said, 'No. Definitely not.' I just said I wanted to make sure because I don't like that pitch up and in, right on my face. He said 'No.' The catcher told me too in Spanish – he's from Venezuela – 'No, we don't want to hit you.' I just said I wanted to make sure because that hurt."

Suárez immediately left the game – he said his hand looked purple – for an X-ray. Suárez said he had a hand contusion, but all of the tests were negative for a break and he will see how he feels after Thursday's off day.
Against the Pirates last season, Suárez was hit by a pitch from Pirates pitcher Jameson Taillon on April 8, 2018, and fractured his thumb. The injury sent Suárez to the injured list and he missed 16 games.
Suárez was hit by another pitch from Taillon on Sept. 5, 2018. Did he brace himself for the possibility of being hit on Wednesday?
"No, I just went up there to hit," he said. "I was 0 for 2, so I just want to hit the ball and they hit me. That made me mad because nobody wants to get hit."
Holmes told MLB.com: "The first pitch of the inning, it got away from me. I was definitely not trying to hurt him or hit him. It was one of things where it's part of the game. I hope he's healthy and I hope he's good to go."
When Suárez left the game, an eventual 7-2 loss at Great American Ball Park, Bell remained on the field to talk to home-plate umpire Cory Blaser. There was a brief delay as pitcher Tyler Mahle prepared to enter as a pinch runner.
Bell later chatted with crew chief Jeff Nelson, the third-base umpire, and became more visibly upset. When Bell continued to argue after Nelson walked away, he was ejected for the fourth time this season.
Did Bell think Suárez was hit intentionally?
"Well, we know they'll do it intentionally," Bell said. "I was doing what I could to protect our players. Clearly, we're not going to get protected, so we have to do whatever we can. We have to take matters into our own hands."
There was a benches-clearing incident between the Reds and Pirates on April 7. Derek Dietrich hit two home runs that bounced into the Allegheny River and stood in the batter's box for a few seconds to watch the ball's flight.
In the at-bat following his first home run, Pirates starter Chris Archer threw a pitch behind Dietrich's butt. The pitch sparked a benches-clearing incident and led to five ejections. Archer received a five-game suspension for intentionally throwing at Dietrich. Bell (one game) and outfielder Yasiel Puig (two games) were suspended for their actions during the incident.
The Reds, who split their four-game series against the Pirates this week, will play Pittsburgh again on July 29-31.

Q: How I can save big tables as image with pandas I want to save a table with 1538 rows by 4 columns as an image,
I saw this post and tried this code:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
from pandas.tools.plotting import table

df = pd.read_csv('filepath.csv')
ax = plt.subplot(111, loc='top')
ax.xaxis.set_visible(False)
ax.yaxis.set_visible(False)

table(ax, df)

plt.savefig('mytable.png')

but what I got was this, and the goal is a big image "scrollable". Is there anyway to do It?

A: I realize you mentioned image, but I would look into trying to make it into an html page. Luckily, pandas can handle all of it for us with the df.to_html() method. Definitely take a look at the documentation which allows lots of nifty options (html classes, ids, borders, etc etc).
But as an example, it would look something like this:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(1538, 4),
                columns=['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'])
with open('dataframe.html', 'w') as outfile:
    outfile.write(df.to_html())

Then you can just open up dataframe.html in any browser.

Panthers' John Miller: Ready for Week 12
by RotoWire Staff | RotoWire
Miller (knee/ankle) is active for Sunday's game versus the Vikings, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Miller will return after a one-week absence, and he'll start at right guard Sunday.
Panthers' John Miller: Officially inactive Sunday
Miller (knee/ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Lions, Bill Voth of the Panthers' official site reports.
Miller will miss his second game of the season. Dennis Daley filled in for Miller back in Week 7 but is likely to start at left tackle in place of Russell Okung (calf), so Michael Schofield could get the nod at right guard Sunday.
Panthers' John Miller: Unlikely to play Sunday
Miller (knee/ankle) is doubtful for Sunday's game versus the Lions, Bill Voth of the Panthers' official site reports.
Meanwhile, Russell Okung (calf) is also considered doubtful, so the Panthers likely will be without two starting linemen. Dennis Daley is expected to start in Miller's place Sunday.
Panthers' John Miller: Not likely to return against Bucs
Miller (knee/ankle) is doubtful to return to Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay, Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Carolina will be without its starting right guard for the remainder of the Week 10 divisional tilt, elevating second-year man Dennis Daley into a key role. This is certainly a less-than-ideal week for an in-game injury to occur to a starting Panthers offensive lineman, as Tampa Bay's defense ranks No. 4 in sacks per game (3.2) and No. 1 in rush defense (77.9 yards allowed per contest).
Panthers' John Miller: Ready to face Falcons
Miller (ankle) is active for Thursday's game against Atlanta, Myles Simmons of the Panthers' official site reports.
Miller missed his first game of the season Week 7 due to an ankle injury, but he's now ready to reprise his usual starting role at right guard. The 27-year-old will work to pave the way for Mike Davis while also helping keep Teddy Bridgewater upright.
Panthers' John Miller: Won't go Sunday
Miller (ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints, Myles Simmons of the team's official site reports.
Miller will miss his first game of the 2020 season after he missed Thursday and Friday's practice with the ankle issue. With Miller sidelined, expect Dennis Daley to take over as the team's starting right guard for Week 7.
Panthers' John Miller: Finds new team
The Panthers and Miller agreed Wednesday on a one-year deal worth $4 million, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Miller was let go by the Bengals earlier in the day but quickly found a new team. The 26-year-old, who started 13 games for the Bengals last season, began his career with the Bills in 2015 as a third-round pick. He'll likely be in contention for a starting role as he continues his career in Carolina.
John Miller: Set to be released
The Bengals will release Miller on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Miller, who signed a three-year, $16.5 million contract with the Bengals last March, was brought in to be the team's starting right guard, but he'll now look to catch on elsewhere in a similar capacity. The 26-year-old came into the league as a third-round draft pick of the Bills in 2015.
Bengals' John Miller: Ready to rock
Miller cleared the league's five-step concussion protocol Thursday and was a full participant in practice, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Miller is set to retake his usual role as Cincinnati's starting right guard during Sunday's regular-season finale against the Browns.
Bengals' John Miller: Will miss Week 16
Miller (concussion) has been declared out for Week 16, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.
Miller has been unable to get on the practice field this week. Billy Price took over for the 26-year-old after he departed Week 15 and will likely do so again.
Bengals' John Miller: DNP on Thursday
Miller (concussion) missed Thursday's practice and still needs to clear the league's concussion protocol, Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Bengals head coach Zac Taylor deems Miller "doubtful" for Week 16, so expect John Jerry to take Miller's spot when the Bengals face the Dolphins in Miami on Sunday.
Bengals' John Miller: Remains in concussion protocol
Miller (concussion) did not practice Wednesday and remains in concussion protocol, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Miller still has a few more days before Sunday's game against the Dolphins and could easily be cleared in time to suit up. If the 26-year-old guard can't answer the bell, look for John Jerry to replace Miller at right guard.
Bengals' John Miller: In concussion protocol
Miller suffered a concussion during Sunday's loss to the Patriots, Geoff Hobson of the Bengal's official site reports.
Miller will need to fully clear the league's five-step protocol for brain injuries before retaking the field. If he's forced to miss any time, Billy Price will likely start at right guard in his stead.
Bengals' John Miller: All systems go Wednesday
Miller (groin) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Miller appears ready to return to game action after missing two games with a groin injury. His return will provide the Bengals' offensive line with a much-needed boost.
Bengals' John Miller: Won't play Sunday
Miller (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams, Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Miller's absence is a notable blow to Cincinnati's depth along the offensive line, especially with Cordy Glenn (coach's decision) also inactive.
Bengals' John Miller: Dons questionable tag
Miller (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams.
If Miller's able to play, he'll fill in as a reserve. That will be an important role since Cordy Glenn (coach's decision) won't play and Andre Smith (ankle) is also listed as questionable.
Miller (groin) was ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Coach Zac Taylor indicated earlier in the week that Miller was doubtful to play Week 7, so it's no major surprise to see him ruled out. Cordy Glenn (suspension) and Andre Smith (ankle) are also out, leaving the Bengals with minimal depth on the offensive line.
Bengals' John Miller: Doubtful for Week 7
Bengals head coach Zac Taylor suggested that Miller (groin) is very doubtful for Week 7's game against Jacksonville, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
The Bengals' already thin offensive line has sustained multiple injuries, leading to them posting historically low rushing totals. They are averaging 56.5 rushing yards per game, which is the lowest since 1946, when the Lions averaged 42.5 per game.
Bengals' John Miller: Done for day
Miller (groin) is out for the remainder of Sunday's tilt against the Ravens, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.
Miller was forced to exit Sunday's game in the second quarter with the injury, and, as evidenced by this news, is done for Week 6. John Jerry will continue to operate as the team's reserve interior offensive lineman for the remainder of the game.
Bengals' John Miller: Gets hurt Sunday
Miller is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Baltimore due to a left groin injury.
It's unclear how Miller suffered the injury, but it's serious enough for him to miss time. The 2015 third-round pick will receive more treatment, but as long as he's sidelined, John Jerry is the only healthy reserve guard on the roster.

The Low Cost of Homeownership
TheStreet.com quoted me in Why the Extra Costs of Owning a Home Are Lower Than Consumer Expectations. It reads, in part,
First-time homebuyers are often apprehensive about the extra costs of owning a house, fearful that routine maintenance and repairs will add up quickly, exceeding their original budget.
But their estimates about replacing air filters, mowing the lawn and conducting minor repairs are often much higher than average costs. Consumers have trouble estimating the actual amount and said it would cost $15,070 for home maintenance repairs each year, according to a recent survey by NeighborWorks America, a Washington, D.C-based organization focused on affordable housing.
The actual amount is more likely to be in the range of 1% to 3% of a home's value or $2,000 to $6,000 nationwide, said Douglas Robinson, a spokesman for NeighborWorks America. Even some current homeowners' estimates were above the average amount and predicted repairs to cost $12,360. The perception among current renters was even worse with a prediction of $20,503.
"The important thing to remember about buying a home is that there are costs after the purchase that go beyond the monthly mortgage," he said. "By setting up a savings plan and budget for these costs – items such as landscaping, air conditioning and heating system maintenance – a homeowner will be better equipped to take on the expenses without having to use a credit card or worse, a high-cost emergency loan."
While they might appear to be rare, homeowners annually should prepare themselves to handle at least one unexpected major emergency such as replacing the boiler or roof in the aftermath of a major storm or flooding in the basement where water needs to be pumped out immediately to protect the foundation, said David Reiss, a law professor at Brooklyn Law School. Establishing an emergency fund would help protect a homeowner when these problems arise so consumers are not forced to turn to more expensive options of debt such as credit cards.
"If a homeowner has an emergency fund, he or she will feel like a genius when it comes time to use it," he said. "The next step, of course, is to start saving up immediately for the next problem because as most homeowners know – there will be a next problem."
Some homeowners might find that chronic problems such as the leaky roof are worse than the "acute ones such as the boiler giving out in the winter," Reiss said.
"This is because we will do whatever it takes to turn the heat back on," he said. "But we learn to live with the occasional leak and end up feeling like we can ignore it. However, water damage is bad for a house and always gets worse."

On a site (I will not name it!) I was "reproached" that my papersoldiers aobut the Samurai invasion of Korea did not represent any Samurai figures. Well, they were right. Finally I've got some free time and I had time to prepare some Samurai figures. They represent the Samurai of the (Christian) Daymo Konishi Yukinaga, that with 7.000 men firstly attacked the Pusan harbour.
His crest has the black cross in white field.
The Samurai are with arches and pikes and sword. In few days I will be able to represent also with matchlocks.

Inter Goalkeeper Andrei Radu Faces Crucial Week As French Clubs Saint-Etienne & Reims Show Interest In Him, Italian Media Report
Inter goalkeeper Andrei Radu is set to cut short his loan spell with Cremonese, but faces a crucial week to decide his future amidst interest from France.
According to FCInterNews.it, the former Genoa loanee will have his loan agreement terminated due to a lack of playing time, having fallen down the pecking order at the Grigriorosso.
However, Inter have no space for him in their squad, with Alex Cordaz serving as third choice to Andre Onana and Samir Handanovic, and so are keen to send him back out on loan in the January transfer window.
To avoid being stuck at the Nerazzurri with no prospect of senior football, Radu's agent, Oscar Damiani, has been working on finding an alternative and has focused his attentions on the French top flight.
Negotiations are set to take place this week and Damiani is seeking a swift resolution, with Saint-Etienne and Reims showing an interest in Radu.
It is believed that the player would prefer a move to Reims however, with Saint-Etienne languishing at the foot of the second division.

Former Belle Vue Hotel, Trefriw
The Princes Arms Hotel was known as the Belle Vue Hotel in the era when a trip by paddle steamer from Conwy to Trefriw was one of the most popular outings for tourists in North Wales. The steamers used to tie up at a quay just over the road from the hotel, as shown in the 1890s picture (the hotel is the white building in the centre).
Victorian advertisements promised: "For the convenience of Passengers, Refreshments will be ready daily on arrival at The Belle Vue Hotel, Trefriw." For 15 years the proprietor was Thomas Dutton, an art lover who covered almost every available area of wall with paintings. Some of the Conwy Valley's talented artists had "inscribed some of their work either on the windows, door panels, or walls of the hotel", according to a press report. Many of the paintings were by Buckley Ousey, who died aged 37 in 1889. Thomas Dutton also commissioned art from John Dawson Watson, as did his sister Sarah, who owned the Castle Hotel in Conwy.
Thomas left Trefriw to run the Gogarth Abbey Hotel in Llandudno after the Belle Vue's owners sold the hotel to a London-based syndicate in 1897.
In 1909 the hotel was granted a summertime licence to serve refreshments at a new pavilion beside the quay to people who arrived in Trefriw by steamer, charabanc and motor car. Four steamers would bring up to 200 people each to the quay in high summer, and more than 100 would cross the road for refreshments in the Belle Vue – which interfered with the comfort of the hotel's staying guests.
Arguing the case for the licence, hotel manager Michael Judge said daytrippers "represented three classes, two of which he would not care to have at the hotel, although they were quite respectable". Trefriw's population, normally 700, was about 1,500 in summer, when the hotel was so busy in summer that it had to put up guests in other buildings during the village's croquet tournament.

All health visitors are qualified nurses or midwives who have trained in community health. They believe prevention is the best form of treatment and their best weapon is practical advice and support.
Health visitors work in the community to promote health and care. They are particularly proactive in helping out with children and the elderly. A huge part of being a health visitor will be providing care and support for families with new children, offering advice and guidance from pregnancy to primary school.
They advise parents on breastfeeding, weaning, potty training, teething, common childhood health problems and various other issues that new parents might face. They'll also help tackle issues such as bereavement, postnatal depression and violence in the family.
Health visitors work closely with other health professionals to ensure that needs and requirements are met.
Protecting children is also a huge concern and health visitors are trained to look out for risk factors or signs that children might be suffering from abuse or neglect. In short, health visitors can be a godsend.
Entry-level nurses start on just over £20,000 per annum.
Health visitors might earn anything between £26,000 and £35,000 a year.
Those taking on a more managerial role might earn up to £40,000 a year.
Health visitors will usually work a standard nine-to-five, Monday to Friday working week.
Health visitors are trained nurses or midwives. Nurses need to obtain membership from the Nursing & Midwifery Council (NMC). In order to achieve registered status with the NMC, they must have completed a degree in pre-registration nursing.
Furthermore, all nurses are required to undergo a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. After registering as a trained nurse, nurses can then undertake further health visiting training.
Aside from the usual nursing skills, health visitors will need to be super organised and confident. Moreover, health visitors must be able to work independently. This is a particularly crucial skill as often they will have to deal with some challenging and potentially distressing situations.
After qualifying as a nurse, wannabe health visitors will then have to take an approved programme in specialist community public health nursing/health visiting (SCPHN/HV).
This is a degree-level programme and will take a minimum of one year to complete. With experience, health visitors might progress to team manager or health visitor specialist roles.

People Are Calling Out Movies So Bad That They Actually Pissed People Off, And I Agree With Quite A Few Of These Myself
"First time I ever experienced an audience booing at the end."
by Morgan Sloss
This week, Reddit user u/RedditMayne posed the question, "What movie was so bad it actually made you angry?"
Tap to play or pause GIF Tap to play or pause GIF
And there were so many great responses! Here are some of the top-voted answers:
1. Wonder Woman 1984
View this video on YouTube
"Had so much potential and failed miserably. I don't know what Patty was thinking when she made this movie."
—u/victorOS16
"It was confusingly bad. It felt like a completely different person had been put in charge of it. At least Pedro Pascal and Chris Pine seemed like they were having fun."
—u/SergeantChic
2. The Last Airbender
"Names were mispronounced, the bending was atrocious, and the actors were terrible. Such a missed opportunity for a great movie."
—u/Secure_Perception758
"This movie pissed me off for sure. Don't even get me started on the whole gang of earth benders moving ONE medium-sized boulder."
—u/DasB00ts
"It was not only bad, it was a straight-up crime."
—u/Limp_Researcher_5523
3. Suicide Squad
"The entire movie feels like a parody of what bigwig studio heads want in a movie. The soundtrack choices, the dumb one liners, the incoherent plot, and the ugly visuals."
—u/SaltySteveD87
"You can see kernels of what could have been a good comic book movie. Will Smith and Margot Robbie had good chemistry. Viola Davis was an excellent Amanda Waller… But so many bad choices forced by studio heads who wanted to duplicate what Guardians of the Galaxy pulled off, but they missed badly."
—u/nimrod1138
4. Holmes and Watson
"I heard there were bad reviews for this movies, but nothing actually prepared me for what I was going to experience when I turned it on. It was beyond stupid. I didn't laugh one time. Instead, I was repulsed and irritated. I turned it off. I couldn't continue. I was actually stressed out by how absolutely awful this fucking film is."
—u/ultravioletblueberry
"My god. This movie was so bad I'd forgotten it existed, and now I'm angry again!"
—u/BranWheatKillah
"Easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I thought it would be so bad it was good...wrong. It was so bad that when Andrew Lloyd Webber (the composer of the original musical) saw the movie, he went out and bought a dog. Seriously."
—u/squiddy947037
6. Eragon
"When I was younger, I loved the books. When I saw the movie...well, I wish I hadn't."
—u/novascotia3898
"This fucker is why my hate for books to movies has been set in stone."
—u/mugen1337
7. Mulan (the live action)
"'Yeah, let's make the main character unlikable, remove the comedic relief, and add a random witchy lady so we can do cool CGI' –the writers, apparently."
—u/MatureTeen14
"In the remake, the main character was naturally talented, versus the original where she worked hard and grew to be as strong as the other soldiers through dedication. Seeing a girl with superhuman abilities be discriminated against is a lot harder to relate to than an average, misfit girl who proves herself with courage and determination."
—u/Shallow_Thoughts23
8. Jack and Jill
"So incredibly painful that I wish I could wipe it from my memory."
—u/Gutter_Twin
9. Dragonball Evolution
"I know the director apologized for making the film. I don't care. It's not enough. That crap pissed me off, and I only ever watched it once."
—u/TheMayanArab
10. The Kissing Booth
"I get angry any time Netflix tries to recommend that movie to me. It's the worst thing I've ever watched."
—u/Simply_Epic
11. The Dark Tower
"I don't even know how you screw up something like The Dark Tower. During a time when every studio in the world was scrambling to jump on the cinematic universe train, and multiverses were starting to become a mainstream concept, why would you take a property with those concepts woven into the very fabric of the story and completely ignore it?"
—u/DrBoots
"You'd think that Stephen King's magnum opus would translate to an amazing movie. What we got was a rushed mess."
—u/GW2RNGR
12. Next
"The one where Nicolas Cage has the power to see into the future. Saw it in the theater. First time I ever experienced an audience booing at the end."
—u/originalchaosinabox
13. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
"I'd never understood how people could be so mad over movies being bad. Like how could they be that bad? Until I watched this movie in the cinema. I was furious by the time I was walking out of the theater."
—u/pyrobasis
"How could they make the movie WITHOUT Rachel Weisz and still expect the same charm? The woman that plays Evie was detestable. I was actually offended by her performance."
—u/MooseNizzle
14. The Lion King
"Everything that made the original great, like facial emotions, was taken out."
—u/FoolofEvil
"I could not stand this. I walked out of the theater. All the magic was missing."
—u/Proof-Introduction
15. Transformers: The Last Knight
"It was so bad, it made Revenge of the Fallen seem like a masterpiece in comparison."
—u/EldenRingworm
"Oof. I can't believe that Anthony Hopkins did that film."
—u/RedditMayne
16. The Percy Jackson movies
"I love what Rick Riordan (the author) had to say about the movies, LOL. Dude fucking trashed them and said that he had no control over the films at all. If he did, they wouldn't have been made how they were. Mad respect for him dissing how much they screwed up his baby."
—u/Airbender7575
"I was looking forward to it for so long, and when I finally saw the movie, it really tore me up inside. I'm 26 now, and it still haunts me."
—u/Majestic-Ad-6506
17. The Emoji Movie
"The main human character got the girl in the end because of a fucking EMOJI he sent her."
—u/8-tentacles
"I couldn't get past the concept of Patrick Stewart, a trained Royal Shakespeare Company actor, playing poop."
"It was literally a ripoff of Inside Out."
18. Dark Phoenix
"It was everything I didn't want it to be."
—u/Amphibutter
"They hired the same writer that wrote X-Men: The Last Stand. Because it's not enough to fuck up the Phoenix saga once; you gotta do it twice."
—u/Sneezes
19. And finally, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
"As soon as the opening crawl said Palpatine was back from the dead, I was apprehensive. Everything after that pretty much pissed me off."
—u/rkcraig88
"What a terrible way to end a great franchise."
—u/noonehasthisoneyet
