A close contact is somebody who you cumulatively spent 15 minutes with, within 6 feet of each other. If you're at a party with people you don't know, how do you know who you spent 15 minutes with, within 6 feet of? That's going to be the hardest part when you're trying to do these massive parties like this. You simply don't know.Q: Why is it important to give contact tracers accurate information?Walker: The information that we get with contact tracing and the whole process itself is only as good as the information that we're given. If you're not truthful or you're not providing all the information that you can, first of all, it's going to make it more difficult for the investigator because now they're probably going to have to use other resources, other databases. They may have to go on to social media and try to do their own investigations. Make it easier for them. There's a limited number of them. They don't have swarms of people just ready to go out after big parties like this. We have limited resources. Let's make sure when they do come to you, they're not wasting their time.

Experience's Upcoming Dungeon RPG has Some Wild Art
Lucas WhiteWednesday, January 02, 2019
Experience is a Japanese developer that is best known for its library of dungeon-crawling RPGs, including the Demon Gaze series and Stranger of Sword City. But most recently, Experience has been dipping its figurative toes into horror, with the recently-released (in North America) Death Mark, and another upcoming title that's thematically linked. Going into the new year, Experience revealed plans to go back to home base with two new dungeon RPGs in development, alongside transmedia projects for Death Mark. Now, Experience has released a couple of early art pieces for one of the two dungeon RPGs, showing off what appears to be a pretty high concept setting.
The first image shows what appears to be an amalgamation of ideas, possibly hinting at the new game's setting. It shows what looks like a castle, sitting atop an airship of sorts. An anchor is dangling from the ship, which itself is super ornate. Also, the ship has several fish-like fins. Despite the anchor just hanging in the air, the ship looks to be effortlessly gliding above a mountain range. Knowing that this is a dungeon RPG, this structure could be one of the title's dungeons, although it could just as easily be some sort of home or hub space for the heroes.
The second image is a piece of character art, which also has an otherworldly flair to it. While the character design itself could fit in the more "artsy" anime-flavored style, the character notably has long, pointed ears.
While this is all the information on either game so far, Experience has gone on record stating both titles are planned for release within the fiscal year.

Canada: unruly passenger ban upheld by Transportation Agency
Submitted by Michael Wukoschitz on 21 January, 2013 - 17:53
The claimant Guillaume Boutin filed a complaint with the Canadian Transportation Agency against Air Canada regarding a permanent travel ban imposed by Air Canada following an incident that occurred at the Cancun, Mexico airport just prior to Mr. Boutin's return flight to Montréal, Quebec, Canada, on February 29, 2012.
Mr. Boutin maintains that, while waiting in the Business Lounge at the Cancun airport, he and his travelling companion were misinformed by the Air Canada employees about the boarding announcement for their return flight from Cancun to Montréal on February 29, 2012, and that Air Canada failed to post its flight schedule, causing them to miss their flight. Mr. Boutin submits that he asked an Air Canada employee at the airport if he could arrange to have the aircraft return and, if not, to at least put them on another flight; this employee, in Mr. Boutin's view, was uncompromising, very rude and arrogant. Mr. Boutin and his companion were able to leave Cancun the following day with Air Canada but they had to pay extra fees.
Mr. Boutin advises that he received a letter from Air Canada notifying him that he can no longer travel with the carrier as he was aggressive, and therefore represented a danger to other passengers and that he had tried to grab an Air Canada agent.
Air Canada claims that when it came time to board the flight, the Concierge notified all passengers to head to the boarding gate. Air Canada adds that boarding for the flight was clearly posted on all screens in the Business Lounge but that despite these announcements, Mr. Boutin decided to stay in the Business Lounge as he was still on the phone with the hotel where he had fogotten his wallet and cell phone. Air Canada maintains that several general and personal calls were made in the waiting areas to indicate that final boarding. Mr. Boutin's name was removed from the passenger list only nine minutes before the flight's scheduled departure time, in accordance with Rule 60 of Air Canada's Tariff, which stipulates that passengers must be at the departure gate at least 30 minutes prior to the flight's scheduled departure time. Air Canada asserts that because Mr. Boutin was aggressive on February 29, 2012 and falsely declared that he missed his flight because of Air Canada employees at the Cancun airport, Air Canada decided to no longer accept Mr. Boutin as a passenger until he could demonstrate to Air Canada's satisfaction that he no longer poses a threat to the safety and comfort of Air Canada's passengers and crew.
The Transportation Agency concluded that Air Canada did not contravene the provisions of its Tariff and therefore dismissed Mr. Boutin's complaint. However, the Agency encouraged Air Canada to reconsider the travel ban imposed on Mr. Boutin because the incident in question was a one-time event.
With regard to Mr. Boutin's request for damages in the amount of CND 30,000.00 the Ageny found that there is nothing in the Agency's enabling legislation that would allow the Agency to award compensation for these damages.

Una escampadora de fems és una màquina agrícola que es fa servir per distribuir fems sobre un camp com a fertilitzant del sòl. Una escampadora de fems moderna consisteix en un remolc que va darrere del tractor amb un mecanisme rotatori dirigit per la presa de força del tractor. A Amèrica del nord també són comuns els escampadors de fems muntats en un camió.

Operació
Els primers escampadors de fems eren moguts per cavalls o grups de cavalls. Actualment hi ha també petites escampadores de fems que es poden accionar per un tractor de jardineria o per un vehicle tot terreny. Recentment també s'han desenvolupat noves versions d'escampadores, per exemple, accionades hidràulicament.

Història
La primera escampadora automàtica plenament operativa va ser dissenyada per Joseph Kemp l'any 1875 qui va fundar l'empresa J.S. Kemp Manufacturing Co. a l'estat de Nova York als Estats Units. El 1906 va vendre el seu disseny a l'empresa International Harvester

Joseph Oppenheim de Maria Stein, Ohio va ser l'inventor del sistema d'estendre els fems àmpliament (widespreading manure spreader)

Oppenheim, era un mestre d'escola en un poble i el preocupave que els nois de l'escola sovint deixaven d'assitir a classe perquè feien la feina d'escampar i carregar fems manualment, i per això, inventà aquest sistema d'escampar fems automàticament. El 18 d'octubre de 1899, Oppenheim començà a produir la maquinària amb el seu sistema que va anomenar comercialment "New Idea".

This article takes you through the FAQs about A level retakes - just click on the + to expand the questions you are interested in.
And if you want to talk options through just contact cife or a cife college. We're the experts!
Which A levels can I retake?
We're in the midst of big changes to A-level specifications and exams (see our article on new A-level exams), and the class of 2018 have taken most of their exams in the new linear A levels, but some in the old (= 'legacy') modular A levels. You probably know what sort of exams you took (and you might have sat a mixture of 'legacy' and 'linear' exams). If in doubt, look at the lists in our article on the new A level and GCSE exams.
You can retake any of the A levels sat in summer 2018, whether they were new linear, or old modular ones. If you sat a modular A level this summer you can retake the same modular exam in summer 2019. If you sat a new linear A level, you can retake that too. If you want to retake an A level you took earlier than 2018 life is a bit more complicated: you may find you can only retake the subject in its new linear form (see more on this later).
What are the rules about retaking a modular A-level?
If your modular A level was in a subject being examined for the last time in summer 2018 (ie it is an 'Other subject' – see 'new A-level and GCSE exams' article for a list of these) summer 2019 is the very last time any retake module papers will be set, and only retakers who took the full modular A level before can enter for the summer 2019 modular exams.
The exam boards will recalculate your modular A-level grade taking the best marks you have achieved for each unit, no matter when or how often those units were taken (so long as all the units came from the same exam specification). You might think it better to retake all the units anyway, but bear in mind that you'll still have to work hard to improve a unit you have already done well in. cife colleges have a lot of experience in helping students work out what to retake and what to leave.
What about retaking the new linear A-level specifications?
If you took a new linear exam in summer 2018 you can retake it in summer 2019, but you have to retake the whole exam. The only exception to this is coursework, which you won't be forced to redo – you can ask for your old coursework mark to be 'carried forward'.
What if I want to retake an A level I took before 2018?
If it was a 'Phase 1' or a 'Phase 2'A level subject (see 'new A-level and GCSE exams' article for a list of these) you can now only take the new linear A level in that subject. Your old module marks won't count towards the linear exam, and you will need also to redo any non-exam components such as practical work. All other modular A levels will still be available in summer 2019 (but only if you sat the whole modular exam in the subject before), and you can carry forward module marks even if they are several years old.
What's the point of retaking A levels?
The main reason is to get onto a degree course which requires better grades than the ones you've got. Going to university is expensive and it's important to make sure that the money you have to pay out for three years of higher education gets you the best possible degree. Students often comment that pride is involved too: "I don't want to compromise my plans and I want to prove that I'm better than the grade I got".
When is retaking a good idea?
Retaking A levels is a serious option if you haven't got the grades for the course of your dreams, and you are confident you can improve on the results you've already got. Our page on retake courses gives a detailed guide to how to work out whether retaking makes sense in your own case.
Changes in the rules let universities admit more students with high grades. If you can get those grades your prospects of getting a place at a very good university have never been better, and the benefits of retaking become greater.
Do universities accept A-level retakes?
Yes, in almost all cases. A few will increase their standard offer, but most appreciate that students who retake are highly motivated and, because they have overcome disappointment, will work harder on the degree.
Getting an offer as a retaker is tougher for very competitive courses – medicine for example, or law at Russell group universities. cife colleges can give you objective advice on what is and isn't possible, and on how to submit an effective new UCAS application.
As a first step, ring up the admissions officers for the degree courses you want, and ask them whether they would consider you with retakes. Be ready to discuss why you missed the grades and why you know you can do better. They should welcome your enquiry and give you an honest answer.
Will I improve my A-level grade?
Most students who retake A levels improve, and it's not uncommon for a student to get several grades higher. Our page on retake courses goes through how to work out whether retaking will bring you better grades.
If you know why you didn't get the grade you wanted (for example, you were ill, or you didn't work hard enough, or you panicked during the exam) you can make sure that doesn't happen again when you retake. If your teachers tell you you've got the ability to do better, you probably will. Take examples of your work to a cife college to get a frank and independent view of its quality and potential.
What about getting an exam remark?
There are pros and cons to asking for a remark (now called a 'review of results'): you might upgrade, but you might go down as well, and even priority remarks take time. Visit our page on getting a remark of an A-level or GCSE exam for full details of how to decide whether to get a remark. You'll also see how to get copies of your exam scripts. If you decide to retake it is definitely worthwhile doing this: the marked scripts will help you sort out what went wrong, which is the first step to improvement.
Where can I retake A levels?
Joining a cife college course specifically designed for retakers is likely to be a better option that just repeating your last year at school. School is not an option at all if the subject you want to retake is a modular subject because the school's final-year class will be studying the new linear A level. On a specific modular A-level retake course you can be sure of covering everything you need rather than just working at A2 units. Furthermore, in a new environment, with different teachers, you will see your work through fresh eyes and feel you are moving forward again. That is what cife colleges are all about.
If the exam you took was a linear one, you should find that a retake course will take you back through all parts of the linear exam, not just the second-year work.
Do I have to spend a whole year studying to retake?
It's true that the exams are only available in May / June, but it's entirely possible to take time out for a few months and then start studying in 2019. That will cost you less and enable you to enjoy some GAP year benefits, but you'll be short of time to do the thorough overhaul needed for a substantial improvement. You will lose knowledge and study habits during the layoff, and getting back into study-mode will take at least a couple of weeks. Easter 2019 is likely to be too late to get back on track and make the improvements you want.
Each person's case is different, and the pros and cons of retaking can be difficult to work out. cife colleges are happy to talk options through to help you map out your best strategy.
One thing is really clear: you need to come up with a plan as soon as possible after you get results. As mentioned below, UCAS applications need to be made well before Christmas 2018, even if you're not starting study again until 2019.
What about entering for the exams?
If you join a cife college, it will deal with exam entries for you, but if you are studying on your own you will need somewhere to actually take the exams. You can't enter for the exams just by contacting the exam board: you must enter via a 'recognised centre'. Your old school may be willing to enter you for the exam (but don't just assume they will), and most cife colleges can help by entering you as a 'private candidate'. Exam entries need to be made early, by mid February 2019 for the summer session. You may be able to enter later than this, but it can get very expensive.
What happens to my old linear A-level result when I retake?
When you retake a linear exam you'll get a new grade which is decided entirely by the marks you get in the retake exam – there's no 'carry forward the best mark' option as there was for modular A levels. You can ask for internal asessment marks (eg practical endorsement grades) to be carried forward so you that you only have to redo the written exam papers when you retake a linear a level.
What happens to my old modular A-level result when I retake?
When you have finished taking all the units required by a subject specification, the best marks you got for each unit were 'cashed-in' (or 'aggregated') to give you an overall grade. Your old school will have requested that cash-in for you automatically. When you retake units and want to get a new and improved grade, you simply get the college you retake with to ask for a new cash-in.
When that happens, the exam board will issue you with a new grade based on the best results you've got for all the units taken, irrespective of when you took them. The rules about your best result for each module counting have not changed. The new A-level grade replaces your old one.
Is it worth retaking AS exams?
That depends if you sat a modular A level or a linear one. In modular A levels AS counts for 50% of the A-level grade, so it makes sense to get the highest AS marks you can, especially given that AS exams are gnerally easier than the second year modular A2 exams. Retaking AS modules may well be a good idea in this case. Even so, you need to go through the 'should I' process described on our retake courses page. You will need to study for the AS retakes alongside the A2, and take the exams in the same summer session. That's an extra load you need to be confident you can cope with.
In linear subjects, AS doesn't count towards your A level result at all, so retaking it won't help improve your eventual A-level grade. The new linear AS exams do count towards university entrance, but not if you've already got an A level in the same subject. All in all, the case for retaking linear AS exams is thus pretty difficult to justify.
If you have taken AS exams at the end of the first year, and the results are a mess you face a real struggle in upper sixth, and you may even find that your school insists you change your programme in ways you're not happy with. In that case you might have to consider restarting the sixth-form, or changing to a college which will provide the extra support you need (see our page on final-year A-level entry to cife colleges).
Who will do my UCAS reference?
To be effective your UCAS reference needs to cover your past, to explain why the grades you got were not the best you can do, and it needs to justify better grade predictions for the future. It may be that your old school can do all this for you, but the most effective reference is one in which your old school and your retake college co-operate in writing a new reference with information from them both. cife colleges are very experienced in facilitating this, and it's certainly something to ask them about if you visit to discuss retakes. Check out our 'Six top tips for an outstanding UCAS form' for more about references.
Obviously your new college can't write a reference if it hasn't taught you at all. This poses a particular problem for students who want take time out and start retake work at their new college sometime in 2019. Putting in a late UCAS form isn't a good idea, so you will still need to apply for university in autumn 2018, using your old school for the reference. It's vital to know that the reference they give will be supportive and that they are happy to predict the grades you need. Do discuss this with a cife college if you're worried about it.
Can I study something new at the same time as retaking?
What's possible with GCSE retakes?
You can resit GCSE exams in November 2018, but only in English Language and Maths. If you want to retake any other GCSEs you will have to wait until summer 2019 to do so.
All GCSE subjects became linear years ago, so you will have to take the whole GCSE exam, not just the bits you need to improve. Re-submitting old coursework is possible, subject to conditions.
Just to complicate matters further, GCSE exams are also being changed to introduce new grading systems, less coursework etc (see our article on the new A-level and GCSE exams). The government has promised one last retake opportunity in a limited range of legacy GCSE specifications, which (except for Maths and English) will be in the summer following the last 'legacy' exam session..

If you're coming to Norfolk and want to experience the natural world, you just have to see the seals. There's nothing better than getting this close to nature. The seals are very inquisitive and often pop up and swim around the boats which can usually sail close to the basking seals on the beach - a great opportunity for taking pictures.
The colony at Blakeney Point is made up of Common and Grey seals and in recent Winters has been the biggest colony in England, with around 2500 pups.
Common seals have their young between June and August, and the Greys between November and January. They are fed on their mother's milk for three weeks before heading into the sea for the first time.
The Grey pups are born with beautiful white fur coats and large black eyes making them a very cute sight. Bull seals fight for territories with mating taking place soon after pupping making it quite a dramatic place to be.
Grey seals are the larger of the two species, with large speckles on their coats and longer pointed heads with parallel nostrils. The Common seals have a more rounded face with 'v' shaped nostrils.
Trips go from Blakeney harbour and Morston quay, usually lasting about an hour, or two in the summer when the boats might land if tides and light make it permissible.
Blakeney Point is a four-mile sand and shingle spit, with its distinctive blue-painted Lifeboat House, is part of a National Trust reserve. It is accessible by foot from Cley car park, but the westernmost end will probably be fenced off from April to mid-August to protect nesting Terns.
In the summer you might see Common Terns, Sandwich and Little Terns and also Arctic Terns. Many of them begin to arrive from West Africa in April and breed into the season. They make a small scrape in the shingle where they lay their eggs.
On the sands you might also see Oyster Catchers, Ringed Plovers, Turnstones and Dunlin. During the winter months, you might see numbers of duck and geese including Mallard, Widgeon, Teal, Pintail, Pinkfooted Geese. Greylag and Brent Geese usually arrive from October onwards.
There are also seal trips from Hunstanton to see the group of Common seals in the Wash, aboard amphibious vessels, The Wash Monsters. This area has a large expanse of shallow tidal sandbanks and is fed by four tributaries.
There is a significant colony at Horsey and you might also see seals turning up in the water or on the beach around the Norfolk coast, in Wells harbour or on the sandbanks at Holkham, or you might spot them bobbing around at Sea Palling and other beaches on the eastern coast. Please, if you are watching the seals by land with your dog, please ensure Fido is well controlled – dogs and seals do not mix.
There are also Summer trips from Great Yarmouth central beach to see the colony at Scroby Sands.
The seals travel on land at just 3 or 4 miles an hour but can reach 30 to 40mph when swimming submerged!
They'll give you a wave!
The best and recommended way to see the seal pups is by boat from Morston Quay. The pupping area is fenced off with no access for visitors giving the seals space to give birth and to raise their pups. It is possible to walk but with an arduous six mile round trip on loose shingle with no facilities, it is not recommended. Beans Boat Trips and Temples Seal Trips both run seal trips during the pupping season departing from Morston Quay. These are popular so please contact the providers in advance for times and bookings.
Always keep your distance from any seals you may come across. Please do not try to take your photo with any seals as mothers are protective and males are very territorial which could result in serious injury to you or the death of a pup.
If you do decide to visit on foot then the team would prefer dogs to be left at home but if you wish to bring them then please keep them on a short lead at all times.
Please respect fence lines and any advice given to you by National Trust.


Case Summary: When a dead body is found in the house of a man Olinsky knows, things get personal in the Intelligence unit. And after Lindsay receives flowers that weren't sent by Jay, concerns arise.
Review | Analysis: "Some Friend" was an acute example of how intriguing this show can be. It's admirable to want to genuinely set a strong example for someone in order to help them improve their lives. But if that person doesn't respond the honorable way, how do we respond that shows our character? The Intelligence unit and almost everyone who works for law enforcement does so because they selflessly seek justice, and while things don't always go as planned, with the exception of Voight they've often reacted in ways that have been admirable.
Alvin Olinsky hasn't been the focus of Chicago P.D. too often and when he is, the episode is always memorable. Olinsky's empathy has been a bright light in a dark world, and "Some Friend"gave that light the opportunity to shine beautifully.
Backstory is always the most remarkable type of story telling.
Case Summary: When an operation goes south at Jay's second job, Terry loses his life. The Intelligence unit questions Brianna then learns the facility was bugged. And we get a little bit more on Jay's past.
Review | Analysis: Episodes that challenge the characters always manage to be the best. "Forty-Caliber Bread Crumb" took a man away from his family, and as he grieved for his friend, Halstead also dealt with the horrific return of war memories. At this point it's no surprise that the reason I've chosen to review this series is because of the friendships — the subtle moments where we get to see the people behind the uniforms. And these are also the episodes that allow actors to challenge themselves with some of the most gut-wrenching performances.
I may be biased here, but episodes centered around Jay generally tend to be incredibly intriguing. And because we've wanted backstory on his character for the longest time, it was delivered in ways better than I had expected. It's always made sense to me that details of his past couldn't be revealed due to the fact that it's anything but easy to open up and talk about them. And while a lot's been left to our imagination, it's nice that we're still able to get fragments.

With over 58 booths at the Pegasus Hotel, this year marks the second annual 'Women in Business, Expo'.
The event is now an annual feature of the Sonia Noel Foundation for Creative Arts (SNFCA), in collaboration with the Women's Association for Sustainable Development. The two-day expo ends today (March 26, 2017).
However, the Minister did admit that there are still cultural and institutional barriers that exist within society and can impede women from achieving their full potential.
"If women are healthy and educated, their families will thrive. If women have a chance to work and earn as full and equal partners in society then families will thrive and when families thrive, communities and nations will thrive," added Minister Ally.
SNFCA Chair, Sonia Noel, encouraged the women to aim for 'relationship capital' in addition to having a positive attitude to boost their succession level.
"We (women exhibitors) all have to grow, we have talented people in here, talented people all over the world. But don't tell yourself talent is all. It is not, without the right attitude, it's not going to take you anywhere. So, I always encourage people to be blessed with the talent but don't think you 'all of that' just with the talent, it's the attitude that will get you there," explained Ms. Noel.
This year's event also featured several motivational speakers on ways the women can capitalise on networking opportunities, vital for the development of women in business and also on a personal level.
According to the Chair, the mission of SNFCA is to create access for talented individuals, not only in Guyana but through the wider Caribbean.
During the upcoming weekend, several of the exhibitors will he heading to neighbouring Suriname to participate in the 2017 United Business fair.

Call for Applications: The Architectural Imagination(Online Course)
in: Training | 03.05.2020 | 211
Architecture engages a culture's deepest social values and expresses them in material, aesthetic form. This course will teach you how to understand architecture as both cultural expression and technical achievement. Vivid analyses of exemplary buildings, and hands-on exercises in drawing and modeling, will bring you closer to the work of architects and historians.
The first part of the course introduces the idea of the architectural imagination. Perspective drawing and architectural typology are explored and you will be introduced to some of the challenges in writing architectural history.
Then we address technology as a component of architecture. You will discover ways that innovative technology can enable and promote new aesthetic experiences, or disrupt age-old traditions. Technological advances changed what could be built, and even what could even be thought of as architecture.
Finally, we'll confront architecture's complex relationship to its social and historical contexts and its audiences, achievements, and aspirations. You will learn about architecture's power of representation and see how it can produce collective meaning and memory.
Architecture is one of the most complexly negotiated and globally recognized cultural practices, both as an academic subject and a professional career. Its production involves all of the technical, aesthetic, political, and economic issues at play within a given society. Join us as we examine how architecture engages, mediates, and expresses a culture's complex aspirations.

The Church of Scotland parish of the North Isles of Shetland has been without a full-time minister for over four years; a fact that comes to the attention down in Australia of the Rev Lachlan Ness.
Lachlan decides that here is a challenge fit for his particular talents, and lets it be known that he would be available in Shetland for a time, and would do his best to help the parish obtain a full-time minister. His offer is accepted.
He and his wife Janet travel to Aberdeen, Scotland, from where they cross hundreds of kilometres of wild North Sea and arrive in Shetland in a snow storm in the early spring of 2008, unaware of the many adventures that await them among the warm-hearted folk of the North Isles, Britain's remotest islands.
Lachlan (described by one reviewer of his first book "A Kangaroo Loose in the Top Paddock" as 'an Australian James Herriot) once again finds himself caught up in the lives of his parishioners as well as their four-footed companions. There was Angel, the ankle-sized dog that managed to savage Lachlan's ear, Wee Wee the giant pig and his companion Pooh-Bah the cat, and many others.
Then there was Muckle Malcolm and the mysterious encounter with a mythical trow, and the eccentric Lucy McNere who had her father photographed in a most unusual location, and Doreen the plump femme fatale, and many others, as well as all the gracious folk of the parish of the North Isles who filled Lachlan's and Janet's lives with warm and unforgettable memories.
As well, Lachlan and Janet explore just about every corner of the North Isles, which Lachlan describes graphically, so this heart-warming story is a "must read" for those who may want to visit the North Isles and discover for themselves the remarkable beauty that abounds in the ancient islands of Shetland.
Very disappointing. It could have been so much more but it was just a we went here and we went there. Very little about the culture of the Shetlanders and even less about the people themselves.
5.0 out of 5 starsCharming and Real.
Charming, charming, charming!! Just loved this dear memoir of time as an interim pastor on the Shetland Islands. I felt the winds blow each time the author did. Each one of the Shetlanders' character gets etched in your mind as well. I was sorry to see their time end in Shetland and thought for sure, they'd even forgo their beloved Australia to continue on. The Lord's plans are not always ours tho.
Seeing the people and places of the Shetland Islands through the eyes of an "incomer" was interesting and often entertaining. Reading this book made me want to learn more about the Shetlands and has made me consider visiting the islands the next time I visit Scotland.
I great tale of the lifestyle and hardships faced by dedicated people, mixed with humor and sorrow and the description of the typography and farming was an eyeopener. For this book too I did a Google Map search and followed Lachlan's sojourn to all parts of the three islands of his parish - a boy's own adventure.
What can I say, other than I love to read and I am easy to please.


The Football of Loos, which was kicked between soldiers of the London Irish Rifles during a Great War battle, will be at Portman Road on Saturday as Town mark Remembrance Day ahead of the game against Preston North End.
At the time of the Great War football was actively encouraged among troops for fitness, competition and to build camaraderie and it was not uncommon for soldiers to carry balls with them.
But before the Battle of Loos in France on the Western Front in September 1915 the high command, after hearing rumours of footballs featuring in the forthcoming assault, ordered that they all be confiscated and destroyed.
However, Rifleman Frank Edwards of the London Irish Rifles kept a deflated ball down his uniform front and just before the whistle was blown he blew it up and as the command came hurled it over the top to the call of "Play on the London Irish!".
The ball was kicked between Edwards and his team-mates Micky Mileham, Bill Taylor and Jimmy Dalby as they advanced and even when the the line was halted, to keep in contact with units to their left and right, the ball was kept in play.
The London Irish assaulted the German trenches, cleared through three lines and won the day. They held the line for three days before being relieved.
The endeavour was made that much harder as the men were wearing respirator hoods as the British had deployed gas as part of the assault. The gas had stalled as the wind had faded and the soldiers had to fight through it.
Edwards was wounded in the thigh and was aided by Mileham, who in turn was wounded while attending to him. However, they both made it to the regimental aid station and survived the war.
The ball itself was recovered from the German wire and is now kept at the Regimental Museum at the headquarters of the London Irish Rifles, Flodden Road, Camberwell, London.
Colchester-based Town season ticket holder Tony Robinson (pictured), a former corporal in the London Irish, looks after the ball when it is taken to events in the role of Ball Major and has appeared with it on TV on a number of occasions.
"The ball will be in the FanZone for supporters to have an opportunity to view this unique Great War artefact which has featured on the Antiques Road Show and QI, "Robinson told TWTD. "The ball is supported by donations, which will be welcomed on Saturday.
"The ball represents teamwork. In the military the individual is an essential part of a team which is working in life and death situations. As in football the roles performed by each player are essential to winning the game, the same applies that even in the biggest battle the role of a single soldier can win or lose the day.
The ball will be in the FanZone from midday on Saturday - where donations can be made to the London Irish Regimental Museum - and subsequently will form part of the club's on-pitch Remembrance Day commemorations prior to kick-off, while London Irish Regimental Association chairman Peter Lough will be interviewed on the pitch at half-time.
What a great honour for our club to have this at the ground for our closest game to Remberance Day.
I will certainly go to the fanzone with my 13yo son and make a.donation.
Well done to whoever organised this.

Belief Systems: What Do We Really Know About Them?
Quite a few of the topics I have written about are sensitive subjects in the minds of most people. As human beings, we have varying degrees of emotional attachment to the individual components that make up the very fabric of our reality. The subject of religion is one such subject, within that fabric, many people feel strongly about.
It has been written by some scholars that there are so many formalized religions throughout the world that it is difficult to count them. Each one of these "belief systems" is accepted by its members as a legitimate explanation about spiritual reality. In more simplistic terminology, it could be written that each religion believes it is correct and that all of the others are wrong.
Most of us have very minimal knowledge about the belief systems we have embraced or accepted to be reality. We have learned most of what we do know about a particular belief system from our parents or because a priest/preacher/rabbi has demanded that we do so.
Once we have accepted certain belief systems and welcomed them into our lives, it is absolutely natural for the concepts to be reinforced by the members of our immediate community. The belief systems eventually become attached to our core beliefs and from that point forward, we tend to aggressively defend such concepts until the very day we leave this planet.
I have always found it interesting to note the reactions people have when confronted with different types of information. On numerous occasions I have witnessed students, professionals and others routinely demanding a certain level of proof when assessing comments or claims being made. These individuals apparently needed the information they received to be scrutinized for a high degree of accuracy. Obviously, these folks wanted to make sure that the "claims" in question were "the real deal." Their rationale for having everything validated in such a careful manner was to satisfy personal or professional standards.
The same individuals, in other scenarios, would suddenly and without warning dismiss their high standards when assessing equally important information that impacted their lives. I found this to be especially true when the information in question was attached to a specific belief system. It has always fascinated me to watch this process unfold. An important, ancient event that allegedly took place several thousand years ago was not being scrutinized by the same people using the same set of standards because they chose to accept the ancient information via blind faith. Meanwhile, the present day claim was being assessed by them using a completely different set of standards.
I can guarantee that if I went on top of a mountain and claimed I had heard the words of a divine angel and I then reported my experience to the members of the media, I would most certainly be laughed at and not taken seriously. Another person making the same claim several thousand years earlier, with no one around to witness the miracle, is regularly given a free pass and their story/information is believed to be genuine by most people in society. Why the double standard and why do so many of us believe that miracles only occurred during ancient times?
A few years ago, one of my students asked me if I believed that life existed outside the confines of our Earth. I replied to the student in the affirmative and gave the reasons for my beliefs. The student, who was very religious, explained to me that most of the people that had written about such experiences had allegedly established communications with the supposed extraterrestrials through a medium known as channeling. The student wanted to know why I believed in something that was so ridiculous. I proceeded to answer his question by asking the young man another question that I already knew the answer to. I asked him if he went to church on a regular basis and he replied that he did. I also asked him if he prayed in church and at home. Once again he replied yes. I then asked the student if he thought someone or something was listening to his prayers and if he expected the prayers to be answered. The student paused for a moment and then responded with an affirmative nod. I took that opportunity to explain to the individual that he was sending and receiving channeled information every single time he said a prayer and perceived that he received an answer. I then asked the student if he thought the act of praying was ridiculous. The young man declined to answer me.
It might be too painful for many of us to question certain things that we have embraced in our lives and decided a long time ago were valid or not. This is human nature – the way we are wired! I think it is important that every person makes an effort to assess all information fairly, using the same set of standards regardless of whether the data is current or thousands of years old. By doing so, we will have a much better chance of attaining a truer understanding of where we have come from, where we are, and where we might be headed as a civilization. What do you think?

Trello is one of the most popular project management tools for agencies is. Trello uses boards and has focused on making this core feature as intuitive and easy to use as possible.
DoInbound is a project management platform designed by an agency for agencies.
SEPTEMBER 2018 UPDATE: We've rebranded DoInbound as ZenPilot and are no longer accepting new customers for the DoInbound software. Helping agencies with project management is still an integral piece of our mission and offering and you can learn more about our transition in this blog post and podcast episode.
Trello and DoInbound approach project management in different ways.
With Trello's board approach, it's easy to check in and see the progress you're making at any time. Depending on how you have your workflow set up, it can provide you and your team a perfect snapshot of where each project is in production and give you the insights you're looking for. You don't have to do extra digging around or running reports since it's all there in front of you.
Trello is very easy to understand and get started working on right away. You can be up and run and place your systems and processes on cards within a short period. It's ease of use is a big plus for agencies who want to have their teams working on the platform as well.
When you get into Trello, what you have is a blank canvas to work from. You need to organize the platform for your agency. For some agencies, this is easy getting all the processes in their mind onto a platform. They're able to break up projects and deliverables into easy to follow pieces and keep their whole team on the same page.
However, for some agencies, they need more of a framework. We've talked to a lot of agency owners over the years who know that they need processes and documentation but have a hard time getting it organized and set up in one place. It's never entirely where it needs to be, and in the confusion of implementation, a lot of agency owners give up on their project management platform.
That's why DoInbound is built with the proven Campaign - Deliverable - Task framework that is designed to help agencies consistenly deliver results and scale their business.
Most agency owners like having a dashboard to get a snapshot view of their entire business at any given time to see what's behind, on-time, or potential problems that need to be addressed with clients.
Running off a template means just copying another board. It doesn't allow you to scale your project scheduling in the templates.
With no central location to house templates and just copying, if you ever go back and change up fundamental pieces for how you deliver a service, you'll have the issue of having to re-work all of it across clients instead of being able to update the process in one central location and pushing it out.
A template builder ensures that across the baord your delivering the best results while saving time.
No native time tracking on cards + no opportunity to set a budgeted time for how long it should take to complete a task.
For agency owners dedicated to efficiency and ensuring that they're business is profitable, time tracking is a must. It provides that piece of the puzzle to tie the season worked to the profit created in your business.
Each new DoInbound customer gets two free on-boarding sessions to help them get set up on the platform and coaching on documenting processes, organizing them in DoInbound, and making their agency scalable, so they get the most out of the platform.
Create custom reports for clients so they can see the work being done for their business.
This report will help demonstrate to your clients with data the amount of activity on their account, so you don't have to answer what you've done for them in the past month.

This was the first picture she took with her new camera. Well, it was new to her and that was good enough. She found it at a pawnshop over on 9th Street, the street of lost chances and dead ends. Nobody went to live on that street if they could avoid it. But sometimes she went there to browse the pawnshop and see what she could find. There was always something there that she could find room for in her house. But that day she didn't go to browse. She had decided she needed a camera, and the older the better. She didn't want anything digital. She didn't want her tools to be smarter than her. Sure, she had a smart phone that could take pictures, but she wanted something slower. Haste makes waste, after all, and being able to take a thousand pictures a day certainly created some bad shots. No, a roll of 24 shots was right up her alley.
She'd gotten into the mindfulness trend and decided her new hobby was going to be photography. Not that silly point and shoot business, but actually composing photos like you'd compose a sonata or sonnet. She wanted real pictures, with heart and soul.
But she ended up with pictures that were dark. They had soul, but it was of a dangerous bent. The camera never seemed to work when she tried to take a photo of a flower, or a child, or a puppy. Only when something tragic or scary happened would the shutter release, and she had no control over when that would happen.
It wasn't like she pointed the camera at that car accident. She tried to frame a shot of the roadside flowers. The shutter clicked, or so she thought. She stood up and then the car came around the bend, going 90 to nothing. It hit a pothole in the road and flipped. The passenger flew out, arms flailing and then, the camera, slung on a lanyard around her neck, took the photo.
She didn't know until she got the film back two weeks later in the mail. She'd spent the whole weekend taking photographs and none of them came out. Or rather – all of them came out perfectly – they just weren't the photos she'd taken. The camera had taken them all. All weird. All strange. All disturbing. She noticed all the strange things that were happening that weekend she chose to learn how to use her camera. But she'd not focused on them. Who would point their camera at that? A decapitated doll. A strangled snake. And worse.
She was here to share joy with the world, and her camera seemed bent on showing junk.
She took the camera back to the pawn shop. Maybe she could trade it for another? There were no other cameras there that day, and the clerk mutely pointed at the "no refunds" sign written in 48 point font taped to the cash register. But he did offer her the name of the person who had brought it in. This was against policy, of course, but she was a regular and so patient with him so he decided to make an exception as a way to appease her.
Now she had a name. Perhaps this had happened to the last owner. Worse – perhaps the last owner had done something to make this happen. She did a little research. It didn't take long to make contact. He owned a tea shop just four blocks away, on the other side of the tracks.
She decided to swing by to see what he looked like. Maybe she could get a feel for what kind of person he was. If he looked scary she would just leave. But he didn't. He looked normal. So she approached him and asked if they could talk. He was used to this. People were forever coming up to him to talk about what was going on in their lives while he was at work – mostly what was going wrong. He often used to say that he should have been a priest or a bartender instead of owning a tea shop. He heard a lot of dark secrets and confessions.
She asked him about the camera. Yes, he recognized it as is. He'd pawned it because he'd gotten a digital camera and didn't need this one anymore. No, he didn't recall it taking strange pictures. He said he'd not used it in years, having stored away at his desk. It was the same desk where he made art every day after work. Every day his customers would pour out their problems, like buckets of rocks, into his head. It weighed him down. So he'd pour out all that misery into his artwork. It left him clear to start fresh the next day. It was how he survived. It was how he stayed sane.
They realized that the camera must have picked up some of that strangeness. It had taken up the same skewed perspective of the world as all those people who had unloaded on him. Now the camera, like the people, chose to see only ugliness and deformity.

Booking a visit from a Baker Perkins service engineer can pay dividends by improving the operation of your powder coating system.
We offer complete process support over the full lifespan of every extruder. A service visit will involve checking all components on the extruder for wear including the cooling and heating system, screw parts and barrel liners. Replacing parts before they fail lengthens machine lifespan, eliminates costly down time and repair, and ensures that low running costs with high throughput and quality are maintained.
Service engineers will also troubleshoot your process. They can take action to prevent the need for double passing of products, identify and fix sources of cratering and pinholes, and eliminate pre-curing of product in the extruder barrel. They will also check that the barrel screw configuration remains appropriate to your process, and recommend improvements if necessary.
A process refinement service will advise which upgrades, introduced since your extruder was manufactured, will improve your operation.

Amazon.com description: Product Description: Reorganized into a single, tightly focused volume, the new edition of Geriatric Medicine offers practical, authoritative, and comprehensive coverage of the diseases, common problems, and medical care of older persons. The thorough revision includes new chapters on "Urinary Incontinence" and "Falls" as well as expanded discussions of rheumatic/orthopedic disorders and neuropsychological testing. Particularly noteworthy is the superb chapter on "Dementia"; written by a neurologist and a psychiatrist, it provides a remarkably complete account of the dementing disorders. The book also reviews central issues in health care systems and policies, including the unique legal aspects of caring for older persons and the rising importance of home care.

Digital currencies Bitcoin and Ethereum, the #1 and #2 largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, both drifted downward in weekend and early Monday trading. One Bitcoin trades for $646.57 this morning, down 0.17%. An Ether trades for $10.39, down 5.02%. Also popular alternative currency Litecoin trades for $4.08, down 0.87%.
This surprised some industry watchers, who expected Saturday's Bitcoin block halving to put new buy pressure on the currency.
As programmed within Bitcoin's software, the block reward subsidy for miners who "solve" a block successfully is scheduled to reduce by 50% every 210,000 blocks, which happens roughly every four years.
The last Bitcoin block halving before Saturday's occurred in 2012, dropping the 50 Bitcoins per block subsidy to 25 Bitcoins per block where it has remained until Saturday, when as programmed the reward was slashed from 25 to 12.5 Bitcoins per block.
Ultimately, however, the major cryptocurrency exchanges essentially shrugged in response to the halving event. 24 hour trading volume of Bitcoin, $100.2 million, and of Ethereum, $10.6 million, are both certainly well within recent normal bounds and nothing extraordinary.
HOW TO GET INTO ETHER & BITCOIN?
I frequently get asked this, and it's happening more and more often now that my YouTube videos on both currencies are increasing in viewership.
I'd recommend trying Coinbase to buy your first batch of Bitcoin. The San Francisco-based cryptocurrency services firm has more than 4 million customers, services 32 countries, and in my experience is the best overall way to buy Bitcoin with a debit card or linked bank account. From there, you can trade part of your Bitcoin balance on their platform for Ether, or from Ether back into Bitcoin, over at exchange.coinbase.com.
WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH ETHEREUM THAT YOU CAN'T DO WITH BITCOIN?
Another frequently asked question lately. Of course we are at a stage where Bitcoin and Ethereum are still both so new - Bitcoin launched in 2009, Ethereum a year ago - that we probably can't envision all, or even most, of the ways they will eventually be used by individuals, businesses, and one day even governments.
Full disclosure: Not financial advice, provided for educational purposes only. Also not intended as a recommendation to buy or sell any cryptocurrency or asset. At time of publication, I do hold some bitcoins and ethers in my long term portfolio.

I like the extra pockets on this case. I'm surprised it's not a little more form fitting to the exact size of the Launchkey. But It will work for basic transport. It's normal price seems a little bit high as well.
It's a great soft case, although it doesn't offer the protection to knobs etc. that I'd hoped for.
It broke on first outing. I would not advise on buying.
Gigging and making music on the move is a big part of many musicians' lives, so Novation makes carrying cases for our keyboards. Novation's backpack-style Soft Carry Case is the perfect way to transport your 61-key controller keyboard. This rugged nylon gig bag has plenty of room for Novation's SL MkII 61, Impulse 61 and Launchkey 61 MKII Keyboards. It also features a pocket large enough for your 15" laptop, plus additional pockets and storage compartments for cables and other gear. We put carry handles and straps on them, then added pockets that can hold up to 15" laptops, as well as cables, boxes of ProPlus and whatever else you like to carry about.
Backpack-style Soft Carry Case is the perfect way to transport your 25-key controller keyboard.

Happy hunters are sucessful hunters!
"Fair Chase" is the hunting-style throughout Alaska so hunters need to be in good shape for a confident advantage. We do use warm comfortable cabin-cruisers to spot a large portion of the wildlife so those hunters who aren't as rugged as they once were also do very well on our hunts. This adds to the adventure as much more wildlife (including assorted marine-mammals) is seen, compared to sitting/glassing/hiking on a grassy hillside much of a day.
Your eagle-eye guides, who've lived in the heart of this lush wilderness year-round for the past 2 - 4 decades, know every nook & cranny. They've provided many a thrilling hunt for both rifle and bow hunters, with many repeat & referred hunters who barely need an excuse to return.
Hunters just need to bring their weapon of choice, extra clothes, quality optics, personal items and a good attitude. We provide everything else including a 90% success-rate, spanning nearly 4 decades on north Afognak Island. For foreign hunters, we provide gratis rifles during your hunt to avoid customs and airlines hassle.
By law, all bear hunters must be guided. We take no more than 2 bear hunters at once, each with a separate guide & cabin-cruiser. There are 4 Spring & 3 Fall 10-day guided hunts. Also, by law, no flying & hunting are allowed on same day so you must arrive one day prior to your first hunting day.
10 Day Guided Hunts: For these 10 day guided hunts, we take only 1 or 2 hunters at a time, each with their own guide and cabin-cruiser.
For Spring Brown Bear hunts, reservations need to be confirmed with us no later than the previous October 30th. For Fall hunts, reservations need to be confirmed with us no later than the previous April 30th. These dates are to comply with Alaska Department of Fish & Game permit-application deadlines.

WARRINGTON Town progressed to the 2nd qualifying round of the FA Cup with a comfortable 4-0 victory at home to Burscough.
Striker Tony Gray gave the Yellows a half-time lead and added a second in the second half.
Further goals from Jack Mackreth, with his first for the club and a 90th minute effort by Richard Brodie, saw Town through to Monday's draw.
It is only the second time Warrington have progressed to the 2nd qualifying Round since their historic 1st Round proper victory over Exeter City during the 2014/15 season, when they eventually bowed out in the 2nd round proper at Gateshead.
Town are back in action in the league midweek with a trip to Hyde United and welcome Marine to Cantilever Park next Saturday, as the fixtures come thick and fast.
Town: Tony McMillan, Adam Carden, Adam Hughes, Mark Roberts (Capt) David Raven, Jack Mackreth, Robbie Evans, Tony Gray, Josh Amis, Dyan Vassallo.
Subs: Richard Brodie, James Caton, Bohan Dixon, Mitch Duggan, Jack Dunn.
Burscough: Maxwell Povey, Joshua Dunroe, Jamie Clarke, Luke Gibson, Cameron White, Daniel Brady (Capt) Gary Grier, Peter Henerty, Terry Cummins, Calvin Ekpiteta, Prince Ekpolo.
Subs: William Doherty, Matthew ward, Alberto Canache, Zaid Bangi, Lee Robinson.
