Irons Striker Signs On Loan
Harrogate Town have today completed the loan signing of Scunthorpe United forward Noel Burdett.
Burdett will join up with Simon Weaver's squad until 1st January 2018, providing another attacking option in the absence of Simon Ainge and Dominic Knowles.
The 19-year-old has been at The Irons since the age of nine and has been versatile enough to feature as a striker and midfielder for the League One club, before signing a professional contract in Summer 2016.
Scunthorpe born Burdett has been involved with The Irons' development team regularly over the last two seasons and has been on the first team bench on occasions.
Burdett enjoyed a prolific loan spell at Evo-Stik South side Frickley towards the end of 2016 where he notched nine goals in 13 appearances.
The talented attacker then made a loan move to National League North outfit Gainsborough Trinity until February 2017 and will be looking to once again link up with Jordan Thewlis, only this time in a Town shirt.
We would like to thank Scunthorpe United and welcome Noel to the club; we look forward to seeing him out on the pitch.

Home tortures Lingchi – The death by a thousand cuts
Lingchi – The death by a thousand cuts
China is famous for its tortures. The lingchi isn't one of the most famous methods of execution, but it surely is one of the most terrible. The prisoner would be tied on a wooden pillar, then cut in various areas of his body, that would be subsequently removed.
Story of the death by a thousand cuts
Lingchi is better known as "death by a thousand cuts" and, as the name suggests, it was a method of torture and execution, in force in China since 900 AD, which made many cuts and the removal of flesh from the victim.
The term literally means "slow process" and it derives from an expression that indicates climbing a mountain slowly.
This torture method was used for those guilty of serious crimes such as treason, massacres and the killing of parents.
It could be inflicted on people who were alive, as a form of torture and capital punishment, but also on corpses as a sign of humiliation, and in both cases this occurred in public places.
The victim was tied to a pole and the executioner proceeded inflicting numerous cuts and removing portions of flesh.
Sometimes the victim was given opium as an act of piety, to put them into a state of unconsciousness state.
Despite the name is "death by a thousand cuts" scholars believe that the cuts inflicted before the victim reached their death would have been far fewer, about a few dozen. This is because after this amount of wounds a victim would die.
From the literature we have regarding this topic, such torture did not last more than 15 or 20 minutes.
Lingchi, between legend and truth
Lingchi is very often associated with China, but it has often been mythologized and described as worse than it actually was.
The common belief is that the victims, after being tied to a wooden pole, first had their eyes plucked out, then they had the nose, ears, fingers and genitals mutilated.
Subsequently large portions of flesh from the shoulders and thighs were removed.
The truth is that, according to what we have been told by explorers of China such as the Australian GE Morrison, this torture was inflicted post-mortem or, otherwise, after the victim had been drugged with a lot of opium.
Abolished in 1905,it became unusually popular in the West only from 1910 onward as a symbol of the death penalty in China.

While the St. Joseph Lighthouse just made an appearance in my 2014 roundup, sometimes you can't have too much of a good thing. Speaking of good things, there's a webcam at the St. Joseph lighthouse that allows you to look in on this incredible scene whenever you want!
View John's photo bigger on Flickr and see more in his Great Lakes Lighthouses slideshow.
PS: Also a shout-out to Michigan in Pictures regular John McCormick whose 2013 pic of the St. Joseph Light has (according to USA Today) "gone viral" as the face of the Polar Vortex!
Lots more lighthouses on Michigan in Pictures.
Simply amazing and so beautiful!
great shot. what kind of lens did you use?

This standing stone is called the Stone of Destiny and sits atop the Hill of Tara, where the High Kings of Ireland were crowned. Legend has it that the stone roared three times for authentic candidates for coronation. In May 2014 the stone was vandalized and covered with a dark, thick-glossed paint.

A baby pram is one of the most important buys you will need to make for your baby. However, because you will find a great amount of prams on the market to buy, it is very important that you look for a product which is both comfortably and safe for the little one. This article provides handy details so that you can make a good buy.
Baby prams come in many different kinds for instance conventional prams, lightweight 'strollers', flat-folding, umbrella-folding, three-wheeler and double pushchairs simply to name a few.
For making the perfect decision, it is essential that you just get rid of the several offered alternatives so that you can concentrate specifically on what you would like.
– What exactly are your needs as a parent?
You never ever want your baby to be uncomfortable, therefore make sure that the positioning and cushion of the seat offers higher level of comfort to your little one. For a newborn baby, a reclining position is ideal because it's easier for them to rest straight.
To create it portable, producers have created various possibilities, like, lightweight strollers, flat-folding and umbrella-folding. As the pram has to fit through your house, vehicle and entrance doors ensure that you have checked out the size of product prior to buying. This can avoid you getting a large pram that you just cannot benefit from.
For your baby's protection and well being it's crucial that you just purchase a pram that is strong enough to hold them. It can be also essential to understand if you are planning to utilize it regularly or just one or two times yearly. If you intend to utilize the pram to take your baby from your vehicle to the stores then the needed longevity and strength will be much higher.
A baby pram with fixed wheels is a common pram that can be used on almost any challenging road with snow. It's an ideal pram for your child as it is more durable, the wheels have a broad base so they can go on any kind of terrain. The baby pram with swivel wheels can be adjusted and can move in small spaces like shops or narrow streets. The lock mechanism on the rotating wheels is the improved feature that allows the pram for the child to move offside sometimes.
– You'll find baby prams that have a feature of rotating baby 's seat both facing you or away from you. A new born baby feels secure if he / she is facing you whereas a toddler is excited to see the traffic and other people while sitting on the pram. Thus, you can change the seat unit depending on your convenience and comfort of your child.
In case you are the parents of twins or maybe two little ones having not much age difference, well then a double pram that is also noted as twin pram could be handy for you. It gets very simple to accommodate twin babies in a double pram which is either next to each other or in the same line (front and back).

In recent years, higher education institutions have made efforts to attract people who are either in the labor market or unemployed to the educational system. Accordingly, the participation of nontraditional students in postsecondary education has been increasing over the years in Portugal, including working students and working student parents. This growing phenomenon has received relatively little empirical attention since few country-level studies have been conducted targeting the combination of school with other life roles with a nontraditional student population enrolled in postsecondary education. The current study investigates the combination of school with other life roles for nontraditional Portuguese students enrolled in postsecondary education. Participants were 73 working student parents (enrolled in full-time undergraduate programs). Structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis was used to test the model. The coexistence of school-family conflict and school-family enrichment was found. Gender differences on the antecedent variables of school family conflict and enrichment were also found, emphasizing the advantage in examining conflict and enrichment experiences simultaneously and by gender when investigating school and family relations. Implications of the findings and suggestions for future research are discussed.

I love Melissa McCarthy, I think she's hilarious! The Heat with Sandra Bullock was the first of her movies that I had watched four or five years ago. I love that movie. Another one of my favorites is Identity Theft with McCarthy and Jason Bateman. I have yet to see Life of the Party and I am looking forward to it coming out on Blu-ray/DVD! The movie looks really funny and as much as I enjoyed some of her other movies, I am confident I will enjoy this one too.
or Own It Early on Digital HD on July 24!
So who else is ready to see this movie? I know my husband and I are! Make sure to pick up your Blu-ray/DVD when it releases or own it on digital soon! Let us know if you are looking forward to it!
Disclaimer: I was not compensated for this post. However, I will be receiving a free review copy of the movie for an upcoming review from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. All opinions are my own.

Q: CakePHP 2.x GROUP BY within Containable I am going nuts trying to find a good solution, either using the set::extract() or something. I want to add a GROUP BY within my containable:
$params = array(
    'conditions'=>array(
        'Project.id'=>$ProjectId
    ),
    'contain'=>array(
        //Gets the User Who owns the Project
        'User'=>$user,
        'Bid'=>array(
            //The User Who owns the Bid
            'User'=>$user
        ),
        'ProjectType',
        'Os',
        'Comment'=>array(
            'To'=>$user,
            'From'=>$user,
            'group'=>"Comment.from_id"
        ),
    ),
);
//debug($params);
return $this->find('first',$params);

I do not want to hack to get around this issue - is there an easier way to do this?

A: For anyone else that stumbles on this via Google, it looks as though GROUP BY conditions for containable queries aren't supported in Cake 1 or 2, so a manual join would be required if grouping is a must.

A: You can do conditions within contained items:
'contain'=>array(
    'Comment'=>array(
        'To'=>$user,
        'From'=>$user,
        'conditions'=>array(
            'group'=>"Comment.from_id"
        ),
     ),
)

The first thing you noticed at Celine's showroom presentation today: the wall of accessories. In addition to reorienting fashion in a more minimal direction with her ready-to-wear, Phoebe Philo ushered in a new era of small, understated bags when she launched her boxy, shoulder-strap Classic bag last year. For Resort, she's added a new, larger Classic bag to the lineup, as well as fluorescents and exotic skins. The designer's approach, whether to It bags or to clothes, is evolutionary. Just because the rest of the world has latched onto her vision and even tried to give it a handy label—"utility chic"—doesn't mean she's ready to hare off in a new direction. On the evidence of this showing, she remains committed to building an iconic wardrobe, and there's little doubt that in the short time she's been at the French luxury goods house, she's designed some iconic pieces.
The natural jute Philo used for Spring's popular A-line skirt and high-waisted, flaring pants reappeared here in the form of a collarless coat with subtle gold buttons and a sleeveless shift with not-so-subtle zips above the breasts. Her full trousers were cut in crisp white cotton and paired with a matching tunic (she also showed the look in tobacco brown). Her familiar evening all-in-one was demure in front and daring in back, with a low V cut. And the peplumed army jacket that you saw all over the front rows has been extended into a coat. An off-white silk satin halter gown suspended from a brass necklace summed up the collection—and Philo's MO—rather nicely. It was a subtle knockout.

I think people over think food. I think they worry about too many seasonings, too much futzing and are too concerned with timing, and coordinating courses.
I think cooking, and food, are about joy. Simple is always best. My friend has a recipe for chili that he proudly states includes in excess of 38 ingredients. Really? Why? There is no way it all matters, no matter how complex and sophisticated you consider your pallet, there's no way that number of ingredients matters.
Friday night, beautiful weather in Austin, Texas. Husband won't be home till close to 8, as per usual, and Connor and I will die of hunger before then. Enter fajita night.
There are few things a BBQ grill won't enhance. I have a gas grill but am just as happy to use charcoal.
When I was at the store today I picked a family pack of chicken thighs (boneless and skinless) and a I had a couple of breasts I'd boned out a few days ago.
In a big bowl I tossed all the chicken with some salt, pepper, a little oil. If you want to be chef-y, add cumin and garlic but I just wanted the flavor of chicken and the flavor of grill :) In another bowl I tossed a couple red peppers, a green pepper, 2 zucchini cut length wise and 3 onions, cut n/s (through the stem so they stay together.
Preheat grill to 10,000 degrees. Hot hot hot!
Char the vegetables and toss them back in the metal bowl with a cloth over them. When you're hungry later, peel them, slice them and throw them on a tortilla with, oh look at that chicken! Grill it high and hot hot hot. Flip it a few times, let the edges get good and crunchy, crispy. Toss the whole pieces of chicken and onions in another oven dish and cover it with foil.
Cook some tortillas, slice the meat and add some vegetables. You will be very, VERY, happy and it didn't take any time at all, didn't matter when anyone could sit down, this is one of those 'it waits for you' meals. Most excellent.
It's all happily sitting and waiting, I have some fresh tomato and some beautiful avocados what I'll slice up and add when I make the tortillas. Ah, grilled dinner in the palm of my hands. You'd hardly know it's only for 3!
The veggies all slices up... I love the charred ends of the onions. Connor is a purist, meat, cheese, sour cream. I'm a little bit of everything sort of girl. The grilled zucchini rocked!
I showed Sherry, as we had fajitas tonight too that she made.


The original intention behind this blog was to begin to tell a story in public, and to provide a space for other people in similar situations to tell similar stories. The experiences of disabled and chronically ill students and academics have been discussed in public before, but to our knowledge there is no other dedicated space for disabled and chronically ill PhD students to communicate the specifics of their experiences, to reflect, and to find solidarity with others who travel along similar roads. And as those of us with disabilities and chronic illness know all to well, too often, many roads aren't as accessible as they purport to be.
Since launching with just two posts in October 2013 – one, a simultaneous call to arms and expression of having had enough with the way things were for one tired disabled, chronically ill PhD student, and the other an attempt to point students and staff at advice made available online but too frequently unknown to even seasoned Disability Support practitioners – the response has been overwhelming.
We've published twenty-four posts, with a queue of more to come, and with story after story landing in our inbox to be shared, often as part of a process of catharsis, acceptance, and acknowledgement of how things are, good or bad, for disabled and chronically ill students.
We've reached a place where, to ensure the sustained health of this thing we've made, almost by accident, we need to formulate Proper Strategies for how to keep this blog going, and growing.
We'd love your input on what you'd like us to do or be for you as those of us who make these blog wheels turn reflect on how to plan ahead, and what to plan for.
Whatever we decide that we want to be, we will absolutely need your help. We couldn't have reached the place we have now – with nearly 30,000 views for 24 posts across 106 countries worldwide – without the support that has arrived at our door from disabled and non-disabled academics alike.
Here are some of the ideas that have come up over the last few months for things you'd like to see happen.
Dedicated sections beyond the PhD – for undergraduates, post-docs, early career researchers and established academics – with editorial leadership devolved to small collaborative groups situated in those spaces that sit under the main PhDisabled editorial processes. Too often have we heard from undergraduate students that they lack a space like this to tell their stories and reflect communally on what they mean and what can be done about them.
A research section discussing the various ways that the data we're inadvertently producing and gathering via our blog and twitter feed could be used to support the community and further our goal of ending #academicableism and revealing the extent of disability discrimination within higher education. This could perhaps include relevant Calls for Papers (CFP) and Calls for Contributions (CFC) that circulate about disability and intersecting oppressions, especially those focusing directly on higher education.
Space to service our inherently intellectual predilections, to capture reflections on literature, theories, arguments, or policy developments salient to disabled and chronically ill students and academics. Perhaps this can sit under the Research section, perhaps this needs a section of its own, or perhaps it's superfluous to our purposes.
A more international focus, perhaps with posts tagged by locale: the blog's founder and many posters are based in the UK, many posts are submitted from the US, but as our readership reach reveals, the experience of being disabled or chronically ill in higher education extends far beyond these contexts, and will involve experiences of a fundamentally different character or quality to those in the US/UK, in virtue of differing disability legislation, cultural and social norms, institutional policies and their implementation, and all manner of other factors. Perhaps continental editorial teams that overlap with the aforementioned teams focused on each level of the academic journey could be an option here.
More "intersectional" content that speaks to the experience of those with disabilities and chronic illness who, in addition to dis/ableism, confront other forms of marginalization and oppression. As much as #academicableism is a differentiated experience depending on the level of academia one engages, so too is it differential depending on how and whether one occupies other marginalized identities. We're not doing it right if we're not acknowledging this, representing it, and speaking to it. We need to do much more of this.
Campaigning and activism: we do what we can here already, but there is much to be done, and resources are limited since we're all disabled, holding down jobs, trying to claw our way through the academic system. There's certainly scope for more work to be done here, but this requires planning by experienced activists and those with sound knowledge of the higher education systems targeted by campaigns.
If you think these ideas are good, bad or indifferent, or if you've any more ideas to suggest, tell us in the comments.
We'll review and collate responses and use them to frame a plan for how we move forward to keep supporting the community of which we're a part.
If you'd like to join our team of volunteers to make any of these ideas happen, or to support the current work done by our team via the blog and on twitter, send us an email to disabledphd at gmail dot com.
I am keenly interested in expanding to include those with PhDs, in particular those on non-tenure-track appointments. On international focus: I'd like to know where people are writing from, because that helps understand contexts, draw comparisons, etc. As for research and intellectual areas, I am mainly interested in the life experience in institutional settings and what grows out of that, so the more "intellectual pursuit" stuff would be less significant for me. I would want you to keep the focus on disability issues, and only consider other marginalization when it intersects for someone very directly.
Long time lurker, but new to commenting..
I definitely agree it would be good to branch out of a purely PhD focus into a broader one covering all populations involved with academia and higher education. I am a Master's student currently, but still relate to many of the stories included here and I've not found anywhere else discussing these topics. Having categories and editors for different areas seems sensible.
I like the idea of the research section. I'm sure it could become a valuable resource for anyone interested in disability issues and academia.
Being from the UK, I like the fact that many posts are directly relatable due to geography, but I'm not opposed to hearing from the rest of the world too!
Some intersectional content would be interesting, but agree with Chris that I think the blog should retain focus primarily on disability issues. It may get too wide if it broadened out fully into other inclusion/diversity areas.
As for campaigning/activism. Not sure this is something I would get involved with, but I'm sure others will find this useful.

Q: Inflection Point of Time Series and cumulative function? I am reading the paper from here: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.03.25.20043893v1
The problem is to predict the inflection point of daily Covid cases.
The method that is employed is to estimate the cumulative case as function of time $t$ as $I(t) = c t^w e^{-d t}$ (with $c,d,w$ being parameters to be estimated from data) and solving for $\frac{dI}{dt} = 0$, which gives $t = \frac{-w}{d}$.

But I do not see why the maximum point of the cumulative function would give me the inflection point.
For the inflection point, I would want $f''(t) = 0$ where $f(t)$ is the function of daily cases with respect to time $t$.
Then the function $I$ is just $I(t) = \int_0^t f(x) dx$, and $I'(t) = f(t)$, which means $I'(t) = 0$ just means $f(t) = 0$.
Where am I going wrong?
