How to make the most of the festival day-by-day and sip through the week stylishly.
Got your wristband strapped on and your app downloaded with all the bars? Here's how to get the most out of London Wine Week, day-by-day.
Kick off LWW in style and unleash your inner sommelier at a fun pairing dinner with WSET. Put yourself in the hands of WSET's wine experts and dine on a meal of beautifully crafted Thai cuisine whilst learning how the major flavours in your food affect your enjoyment of wine and break down the skill of deciphering a wine list. Grab a ticket here.
Head over to Devonshire Square after work to pick up your festival pass and explore all the fantastic wine pop-ups. You'll see the Freixenet Vintage Van, serving its brand new prosecco as well as the Viva Portugal Bar celebrating all wines Portugese, the Container Bar from Wines of Argentina channeling Latin American vibes and the Vins de Provence Pop-Up pouring delicious rose wines from the south of France. Once your done sipping here head out to explore the local bars serving wine flights and sip + snack pairings.
Wednesday night is all about the bars! Pick an area and plan your evening around what you'd like to sip on and don't forget to include a sip + snack to keep you going. Why not head to the City and try wines paied with artisanal cheeses and meat at Searcys at The Gherkin, a Spanish wine flight at Humble Grape Fleet Street, fried oysters and Reisling at Hawksmoor Guildhall or (and?) a trio of white and red wines and little-known grapes from Slovenia, Croatia and Lebanon at Bread Street Kitchen. And that's just one area!
Start your Thursday off with free glass of fizz at Honest Grapes Unfiltered pop-up inside Oliver Sweeney's flagship store in Covent Garden. Simply flash your festival pass for your freebie and you'll also get a goodie bag to take home. They'll also have a selection of their favourite wines to try, buy and discuss as you meet the Honest Grapes team in-person and on tour. Once you've had your complimentary aperitif we've got two dinners tonight for you to pick from.
Treat yourself to a beautiful Champagne dinner with Pol Roger as they serve up a number of vintages in magnums, jeroboams and methuselahs all paired with a dish from The Beast menu, offering guests a unique gastronomic experience, featuring Norwegian King Crab and hand-selected dry-aged Nebraskan Angus Beef.

Q: Is it possible to have a 'fake top' iframe in a Cordova app? I'm developing an app that will often be opening external URLs if users click on them within the app. I'm aware that I can use the InAppBrowser plugin to show external webpages within my app, but the webpage will then take up the whole screen. I'd prefer to have my own UI around the webpage.
If I were using atom-shell or node-webkit I'd do this using a webview or iframe nwfaketop, is there anything similar available for Cordova?

A: If there aren't any X-Frame-Options to disallow it, you could just use normal HTML iframe to show the page. This way, you can do it exactly as you wish.
If there though is restrictions like this, you are stuck with using InAppBrowser. But as you know, it will create completely new WebView to show the third-party website and thus it will take the whole screen. There is still a way to achieve this by using the methods available for the plugin such as executeScript, addEventListener and close. This way, you can inject some HTML (executeScript) with button on the top of the page (for example top bar with back button) and when that button is clicked (addEventListener), close the window (close).

Home Entertainment Movies Chow off GREEN HORNET
Chow off GREEN HORNET
Asian film superstar Stephen Chow is no longer directing the GREEN HORNET movie, although he will still star as sidekick Kato. The reason given is "creative differences."
And so, our interest in this movie went from 100 to about -10. In shape, Seth Rogen, or not.

Knew it was too good to last–Absolutely no way the Weinsteins would've been hands-off enough for Chow
Evie 12/19/2008 1:32 pm At 1:32 pm
Oh boy yeah that totally super sucks. WTF people, LET CHOW DO WHATEVER HE WANTS.
Bill 12/19/2008 1:45 pm At 1:45 pm
What a skane. It could have golden.
What a skane. It could have been golden.
Firefly 12/19/2008 1:52 pm At 1:52 pm
Well, Chow directing GREEN HORNET had my interest, but now I'm out. The casting of Seth Rogen never sat well with me — he's just not the right guy for the role. Kind of how I felt about Keaton as Bruce Wayne/Batman, since further confirmed with Bale as Batman as to how miscast he was in that role.
Hollywood rarely seems to get it right. Just how they could be convinced to cast Seth Rogen as the Green Hornet (or Jack Black as Green Lantern, as once tossed around) amazes me.
Karen 12/19/2008 2:01 pm At 2:01 pm
Geez, no kidding. I'd watch Chow-directed paint drying, knowing there'd be something awesome about it at some point. But Seth Rogen as Green Hornet without Chow's magic touch? No thanks.
tom 12/19/2008 4:55 pm At 4:55 pm
Thank the gods….now if they can just ditch Rogen – maybe someone can make a decent Green Hornet movie.
Kenny 12/19/2008 5:36 pm At 5:36 pm
DAMMIT! A Chow directed – well, anything directed by Chow is awesome, but a Chow directed Green Hornet could have been the best superhero movie ever.
Franklin Harris 12/19/2008 8:36 pm At 8:36 pm
"Creative differences" means Chow refuses to direct a script that sucks.
Mark Coale 12/19/2008 9:20 pm At 9:20 pm
Do people just want a Van Williams type to play the Hornet?
(nerd fact: Williams played the director of the Green Hornet TV show in the movie Dragon.)
Rafael 12/20/2008 9:55 am At 9:55 am
Nathan Fillion as the Green Hornet, Tony Jaa as Kato. Director who can forget the camp – that was serial tv limits, and knows how to capture the cool. How difficult can that be Hollywood?
Firefly 12/20/2008 10:39 am At 10:39 am
I agree with Rafael, how difficult is it for Hollywood to use some freakin' common sense in making these creative decisions? I mean, Jack Black as the Green Lantern?! What were they thinking? Are these guys high??
(Um, actually, on that last question…..)
Why? 12/20/2008 12:07 pm At 12:07 pm
Sounded like a dog when Rogen announced his involvement and intent to make a comedy. At least Chow knows to get out while he can. Perhaps Chow would not disrespect the memory of Bruce Lee with the obvious comedic treatment that was planned. Now all Moritz has to do is get some serious writers in on this and do it the right way like the last two Bond and Batman films. The Hornet is not a comedy its a gritty crime story, the sooner they get that through their heads the better off they will be!
rich 12/20/2008 11:29 pm At 11:29 pm
Since Van Williams was just right for the part, I'd have no problem with that. Since Seth Rogen would be wrong, I have a big problem with that.
Cary Coatney 12/22/2008 4:44 pm At 4:44 pm
Just to clarify Why? about the producers intent to make the movie into a comedy:
If you chance upon listening to episodes of the original radio series – there was always a bit of comic relief when fumbling ace reporter for the Daily Sentinel Mike Axeford would always blow things out of proportion when it came to reporting on the Green Hornet's so called 'criminal activities'.
rich 12/23/2008 2:39 am At 2:39 am
Cary …
You said it … there was A BIT of comedy. So, Seth Rogen is wrong for the Green Hornet … because that implies MAINLY COMEDY.
James 12/29/2008 6:48 am At 6:48 am
According to Rogen, they were going to play it straight with funny moments (a la Iron Man?) until Stephen Chow came on board and leaned in a more comedic direction. So who knows where it'll end up.
I'm still interested – as great as Chow is, it sounded like the language barrier was proving problematic. Especially if Rogen and Goldberg were attempting their usual improvisational voice.

The objective here was to unload the big bags containing the components to supply the distribution assemblies.
The big bags placed at height were opened so that the components could be poured into a vibrating corridor to extract them to a forklift supplying a vibrating bowl already on site.
This equipment has been set up in order to assay a fair amount of parts in the distribution system.


If you know us at 02GEEK you know we pride ourself with a detailed approach to education and building our platform on our student requests. One of our latest students asked us why aren't we making more dedicating Mobile Development Training for Android and iOS. We decided to take on that challenge. We started building a library of easy to navigate training from the ground up (from 0 to geek). Enabling anyone to become a Mobile Developer in just hours. We've been experimenting with this title and with 25 – 5 star reviews we know we hit the mark.
As such we pulled out our AIR course from the Labs Department and moved it up into its own category as our way to show our commitment to the topic. We've released part 2 of our Mobile Development course as well. We are planning to release another 2 episodes in the next coming month.
Instead of me yapping about what will be in the course check out our new promo for it that covers everything we will be learning in parts 1 through 4.

Long-term imaging reveals behavioral plasticity during C. elegans dauer exit
F. Preusser
A. Neuschulz
J.P. Junker
S. Preibisch
BMC Biology
BMC Biol 20 (1): 277
BACKGROUND : During their lifetime, animals must adapt their behavior to survive in changing environments. This ability requires the nervous system to undergo adjustments at distinct temporal scales, from short-term dynamic changes in expression of neurotransmitters and receptors to longer-term growth, spatial and connectivity reorganization, while integrating external stimuli. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans provides a model of nervous system plasticity, in particular its dauer exit decision. Under unfavorable conditions, larvae will enter the non-feeding and non-reproductive stress-resistant dauer stage and adapt their behavior to cope with the harsh new environment, with active reversal under improved conditions leading to resumption of reproductive development. However, how different environmental stimuli regulate the exit decision mechanism and thereby drive the larva's behavioral change is unknown. To fill this gap and provide insights on behavioral changes over extended periods of time, we developed a new open hardware method for long-term imaging (12h) of C. elegans larvae. RESULTS: Our WormObserver platform comprises open hardware and software components for video acquisition, automated processing of large image data (> 80k images/experiment) and data analysis. We identified dauer-specific behavioral motifs and characterized the behavioral trajectory of dauer exit in different environments and genetic backgrounds to identify key decision points and stimuli promoting dauer exit. Combining long-term behavioral imaging with transcriptomics data, we find that bacterial ingestion triggers a change in neuropeptide gene expression to establish post-dauer behavior. CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, we show how a developing nervous system can robustly integrate environmental changes activate a developmental switch and adapt the organism's behavior to a new environment. WormObserver is generally applicable to other research questions within and beyond the C. elegans field, having a modular and customizable character and allowing assessment of behavioral plasticity over longer periods.

Will Your Smartphone Replace Your Digital Camera?
Although, the newest array of smartphones such as the HTC EVO 4G plus the Nokia N8 sport impressive megapixel numbers, although megapixels aren't the last word in quality. To be resourceful and proficient, your photo-taking device needs megapixels, along with a first-rate lens, an equally adept image processor, and a genuine flash. Photo quality is bread and butter to digital camera's, so together all of these components must perform at a high level. The majority of smartphones, with their inexpensive lenses, less costly image sensors, and purely rude LED flashes, just cannot challenge a reasonably priced compact point and shoot digital camera.
Cell phones and digital cameras, alike, run the breadth from unwieldy and weighty to slim and feather-light. Conversely, a digital camera necessitates extra thought before being taken out on a road trip, be it for portability or for safety. Alternatively, a cell phone is designed to go into a pocket and robust enough to be dealt with in that manner. For a professional photographer, the subject of move ability is a non-issue. Although, for all the rest of the public, hauling two separate devices of somewhat similar functionality is just not in the cards.
Yes, there are numerous quality compact digital cameras pretty much the same in size as a smartphone, such as the Sony popular Cybershot cameras, but, if there's only room for a single device carried on your person, odds are it will be a smart cell phone.
A big advantage of a single-purpose camera compared to a multi-function smartphone. Digital cameras contain the room to house optical zoom lenses with astonishing quality and precision. For instance, the Nikon's CoolPix P100, features an optical zoom with 26x and faultless image quality. The majority of smartphones do not even contain a zoom feature. The ones that might have any type of zoom, use a nominal optical zoom of about 3x, and most often it's a software-originated digital zoom that's right next ro worthless on the average, low-aspect cell phone.
Smartphones take advantage of the cell phone's connectivity strength with family and friends and with internet by employing, among other things, geo-tagging, GPS location information added to your pictures, automatic-uploading to on-line media sources, and integrated in-device editing.
Along another vein, the strong suit of digital cameras is photo-centric, embrace features such as face and smile detection, auto red-eye removal, double screens for simple to do self-photos, and an excess of picture and quality fine tuning. A crossover in functionality is starting to happen between the different devices amplifying, especially in consideration for HD video capture, and internet-connectivity, although the top characteristics should be decided by just how you plan on using the device.
A compact point and shoot digital camera is ideal for those of you that want to capture new sights, or photography is a hobby, for whom photo quality and adaptability are important. of course the downside is reduced portability plus the need for higher skill in managing the pictures. However, the smartphone camera, provides a more casual rationale, for instance, acquiring a random photo on an evening-out with your friends, but is lacking in all but just a few basic image modifications.
For all the expediency plus portability of the smartphones, they're outdone by the superior quality of images and feature-rich-sets featured on even middle-range compact digital cameras. Top-end cell phones possibly might be an adequate alternative to the low-end digital camera for not so challenging point-and-shoot photo shooting, but this value disappears minute you make an attempt to capture a better quality image in a not so ideal situation. The bottom line is, a smartphone camera is only a sales point and pulls that off quite well. After saying that, I can't help but wonder how ljust ong it will take before these smartphones become adequate quality cameras and HD recorders to be serious competition to supplant the real digital cameras.
Whether you employ the smart phone or a point and shoot digital, Vistaview can help you with a decision on which gadget is best for you. Check out Vistaview for specifications plus reviews of the newest gadgets and gear.


Sometimes you do not have to venture too far from home to go travelling!
Recently I have been exploring Melbourne, a city where I lived for almost thirty years, but rarely had time to get to many of its best offerings, as a traveller there myself. Here's some suggestions for anyone exploring this vibrant, friendly city.
Begin exploring Melbourne at the public transport hub of the historic Flinders St Railway Station in the heart of the city. This station not only gives you access to the entire suburban rail network, opposite on both sides run Melbourne's iconic trams.
Opposite Flinders St station, you will find the City Square, including the Melbourne Information Centre, The Potter Gallery, exhibiting many wonderful works of Australian Art, whilst a short walk over the Prince's Bridge will lead you to the Melbourne Arts Centre, including performing arts theatres and the National Gallery of Victoria, for blockbuster exhibitions and a fabulous collection of international art. Both the Potter and National Galleries have free admission.
Besides the City Square is the Burrong Mar walk along the Yarra river. Keep going and you will get to the Melbourne Cricket Ground, home of the 1956 Olympics, Australian Rules Football, Cricket and the Sports Museum. Cross the bridge over the railway line and you come to the Melbourne Tennis Centre, home to the Australian Open, every January, with courts for hire should you want to play where the tennis greats have played.
The nearby Melbourne Botanic Gardens are truly glorious and provide a relaxing afternoon or morning. The botanic gardens are ideal for a picnic too. Alongside fabulous collections of indigenous and exotic plants, they are home to an abundance of birdlife, including black swans. Beside the gardens is Melbourne's wonderful observatory.
Head to the Victoria Market for a wonderful array of fresh produce, inexpensive street food and the cheapest souvenirs in town. The market mirrors the multicultural nature of Melbourne's population and is always a great place to see Melbourne's residents going about their lives.
For food, head to Lygon Street. Originally the Jewish Quarter of town, during the 1950s and 60s the Italian Community established itself here and restaurants opened in abundance. Lygon St remains amongst the best places in Melbourne to find fantastic Italian cuisine, but has since been joined by many other local ethnic groups. Here too, you will find Readings Bookshop, and opposite, the Nova Cinema, screening foreign and arthouse films, as well as a few blockbusters. I spend a lot of time in Lygon Street, when I return to Melbourne!
St Kilda, will get you to the beach, the very cool Village Bell shopping drag, Linden Art Gallery and Melbourne's Red Light District. However St Kilda is also famous for wonderful Eastern European delis and cakes and the Luna Park amusement Park. St Kilda's small botanic gardens are also worth a visit. On Sundays an Art and Craft Market runs along the beach front of the Esplanade. A small colony of little penguins can be seen at dusk near St Kilda Pier.
Close to St Kilda is Prahran, thesedays centre of Melbourne's gay and lesbian community. Lots of fantastic shopping here, from designer labels, to antiques great delis and the quirky as well as the neighbouring suburbs of Armadale and Toorak, the most exclusive address in town!
Possoms can be viewed nocturnally climbing up and down trees at the Exhibition Gardens, adjacent to the World Heritage listed Exhibition Building and Melbourne Museum at the Northern end of the city. The Museum itself is well worth a visit. A key exhibit is the legendary Phar Lap, the taxidermied remains of a race horse that became a public favourite during the 1930s Depression, but was poisoned when he raced in the USA. As well as Phar Lap, there are galleries worth exploring, from indigenous species and habitats, to Australian social history, even indigenous mega fauna and dinosaur remains on display. Don't miss the gallery relating to Victoria's indigenous people, for both traditional lifestyles and contemporary achievements!
The Melbourne State Library, has ever-changing free exhibitions. Tours of the library itself, including the impressive reading room are held regularaly. The same is true of Parliament House. Both buildings showcase Melbourne's arhitectural heritage and provide ample evidence that here, were the richest goldmines in the history of the world. Highly recommended if you have time, or visit during winter and want great places to visit indoors!
Catch a train out to Ferntree Gully and see the wonderful temperate rainforest and ride on the heritage train, Puffing Billy.Lovely hikes through the Dandenongs, specialist gardens such as Tulip and rhodedendrons in season.
One of my favourite suburbs is Brunswick. Go here for the best Middle Eastern food at very reasonable prices, as well as more interesting shopping. Contrast Melbourne's orthern suburbs, with those of the more affluent East!
Melbourne boasts one of the world's truly great zoos, with not only a wonderful collection of animals, it showcases plants as well and has an incredible record for its breeding program of endangered species and prides itself on public education on endangered ecosystems and wildlife conservation. It has a very good collection of native animals. However if native animals are your top priority, head out to its annex, Healesville Sanctuary, or the Ballarat Wildlife and Reptile Park, who specialise in Australian animals.
Melbourne has also established a world reputation for graffiti art embellished laneways, home to great eateries and coffee, upbeat fashion and general vibe. Don't miss De Graves St, or Hosier Lane, off Flinders St. Yes, Melbourne is a city that loves its food. Lively bars can also be found in this area. Don't miss a quick drink at Young and Jackson's hotel, opposite Flinders Street Station. Here you will discover the famous and once contraversial portrait of Chloe, now something of a local icon!
Expect friendly and obliging service everywhere. Tips for such will be appreciated. Contrary to popular belief, Australians do tip for good service and wait staff and those in the hospitality industry will appreciate rewards for ther efforts. Their wages are very low. If you do experience nonchalant or inefficient staff, let them know why you will not be tipping!
Melbourne is a safe and easy city for solo travellers. It is also a wonderful city, for anyone who enjoys walking. It has regularly been voted the "world's most liveable city" due to its extensive parklands, green spaces, size and laid back lifestyle, with a wonderful food culture and passion for accessible and innovative Arts. It's public transport system is generally excellent, with trams, trains and buses running until after midnight. Melbourne is also awash with festivals, from the International Comedy Festival every April, Moomba in March, White Night light festival in February and Spring Racing Carnival from October to mid November. a mecca for horse racing lovers and fashionistas alike.
Inside Melbourne's Town Hall, you will find yet more changing exhibition space, as well as a Half Tix agency, where you can purchase cheap unsold tickets to performances held the same day; great way to access Melbourne's great live theatre and comdedy scene. But the tiny La Mama theatre in Carlton, is another matter altogether. This twenty seater gem launches new Australian works. Book via their website. La Mama is a must if you love live theatre. Though not every performance will be brilliant, many are and experiencing such an intimate venue, where the actors and audience are in each other's face is memorable in its own right!
When planning travels to Australia, always remember it is a huge country. Unless you have several months you are best to plan to limit travels to one or two geogrphical areas. A combination of Melbourne, including trips to Phillip Island to see the little penguins, driving the Great Ocean Road, doing the round of wineries on the Mornington Penninsula or Pyrennese region together with Sydney and The Blue Mountains could be done in two weeks, preferably three!


All soils have the capability to perform multiple functions simultaneously, but the delivery of each function varies across soil types, land uses and climatic regions. To add to which, there is a fragile interaction between soil management and the delivery of soil functions, pushing the system to deliver one function at the cost of all others, results in an unsustainable system. It is however unlikely that all functions will be delivered maximally in any given situation. Can we propose an optimum, with e.g. three out of the five functions to ensure future sustainability?
Soil biota provides services that are beneficial to the productivity and sustainability of land use systems. This symposium aims to discuss how land use systems affect soil biodiversity in Europe and how soil biodiversity (i.e. the performance of functional groups) feeds back to soil functions and ecosystem services. Knowledge is mounting that a sustainable intensification of land use needs to include the conservation of processes and functions run by soil biota that are essential for self-preservation considering services provided by soil biota including soil biodiversity. The joined European agricultural policy including soil and biodiversity conservation is asking for surveys throughout Europe. The strong progress in developing methods for biodiversity determination in soil and the quantification of biota specific impacts should be mirrored by the contributions. Moreover, transversal interactions with socio-economical sciences should lead to the development of tools to assess soil management as a social-ecological issue.


Now, if you were an NBA GM and had to choose a point guard to build your franchise around going forward with no other information to go on besides these two tables, which one would you choose?
Let's call them Players A, B, C, and D. Just to be clear, this is not a trick question -- you can't really go wrong. Between them, the four players have been selected to 21 All-Star Games and 16 All-NBA teams. Without knowing anything else, most GMs would probably choose Player B, and it would be a wise choice: Player B is the Point God, Chris Paul. Most would probably shy away from Player C, and even with some of the shine coming off his star lately, we're still talking about a 5-time All-Star in John Wall. So that's the range.
Let that sink in for a moment. We tend to write the book on these highly-touted prospects way too quickly, especially if they disappoint us early on in any way. In Fox's case, he shot up draft boards after some spectacular performances as a freshman at Kentucky, in particular when he dropped 39 points and eviscerated Lonzo Ball in a Sweet 16 victory over UCLA. When Kentucky lost to UNC in the Elite Eight, it was reported Fox (and fellow one-and-done Malik Monk) were seen sobbing uncontrollably in the locker room afterward, in spite of (or perhaps because of) the knowledge they were both on their way to untold NBA riches. [Contrast this with the attitude of, say, DeAndre Ayton, the 2018 no. 1 overall pick, who put up an unforgivable stink bomb of an effort in his lone NCAA Tournament game vs. SUNY Freaking Buffalo, and then announced he would go pro IN THE LOCKER ROOM IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE GAME.] Even with these pieces of evidence staring us all in the face, we debated endlessly before the draft about whether the best NBA point guard in the class would be Lonzo Ball... or Markelle Fultz.
Fox was drafted fifth overall in 2017 by the perennially crap-tastic Kings, and his narrative began to be written for him. Despite his blazing speed, eye-popping athleticism, fiery competitiveness, and genius-level feel for the game, De'Aaron was knocked by scouts for his shaky outside shot and wiry build, and it was thought going to such a dysfunctional organization in Sacramento would more or less put the brakes on his career before it ever got started. The narrative was cemented further when Fox struggled out of the gate in his rookie season. He shot poorly from virtually everywhere on the floor, validating concerns about his shot mechanics and his ability to handle NBA length and physicality. He rated as not just a below-average player as a rookie, but a sub-replacement level one, and the whispers that the Kings had burned another lottery pick on a bust grew a little louder.
What the haters did not count on was Fox's maniacal competitiveness and desire to improve his game. He has come back in his sophomore season a totally different player. The numbers above speak for themselves, and handing him the reins to the offense in Sacramento has been the key to unlocking their fast-paced, spread-out style (2nd in pace, 5th in per-game scoring, 3rd in 3P%). The Kings have ridden this offensive wave to a surprising 19-16 record, good for 8th in the ever-changing Western Conference standings. Fox's shooting has improved from every level of the floor, and in particular from deep, where he is up to 39.3% (vs. 30.7% last year) on 3.1 attempts per game. This massive jump in efficiency from the perimeter has created the defensive gravity to allow his previously suffocated drive-and-kick game the necessary breathing room which, along with the concurrent improvement of sharpshooter Buddy Hield -- as well as the addition of veteran stretch-4 Nemanja Bjelica -- have all contributed to the quantum leaps in Fox's scoring and assists.
Fox just became legally able to buy a beer about a week ago, so we are still years away from his peak, and there are naturally a number of things for him to improve about his game. The Kings' organizational mandate to push the pace probably contributes to Fox's weak-looking individual defensive metrics, and expecting him to live up to CP3's defensive reputation (an unfathomable NINE All-Defense selections) is unreasonable, but a player with De'Aaron's combination of length, quickness, mental acumen, and commitment to improve should eventually turn into a borderline elite defender, or at the very least, a well-above-average one. In accordance with league-wide trends, he'll need to continue to work on his pull-up game to become a lethal go-to scorer in crunch time scenarios. The organization hopes he can develop a seamless pick-and-roll/pop chemistry with 2018 no. 2 overall pick Marvin Bagley III, as the interconnected ceilings of the duo will ultimately determine whether this version of the Kings tops out as a contender or just an also-ran.
There will be kinks to work out and growing pains to endure. None of the hurdles feel too high for De'Aaron to clear. For the first time in a great many moons, the future of the Kings looks bright, and it starts with the All-NBA potential of Fox.
As for those other three sophomore point guards we discussed earlier? Paul and Westbrook each made their first All-Star team in their third season, while Wall suffered injuries and didn't get there until his fourth. So if Fox is pushing the West's elite PGs for a spot on the roster next year, don't say I didn't warn you. And oh yeah, over this year plus the next four, the trio will earn a combined $554 million, so chances are Fox will end up pretty well compensated for his efforts, too. Way to go, youngblood.

"I'm furious for what you are doing for Bernie Sanders," says one caller in a message to a DNC official. "He's getting way too much influence." (Photo: Pixabay/CC0)
On Top of Emails, Leaked DNC Voicemails Show Money Buying Access
'Messages highlight the relationships between donors looking for favors and goodies, and the party officials trying to bring in money to their coffers'
Jon Queally
Just before President Barack Obama delivered his speech to the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night, new reporting on the so-called "DNC Leak" by WikiLeaks unearthed a large batch of voicemails contained in the files which give additional texture to a scandal that has loomed large at this week's event in Philadelphia.
Though many of the voicemails (see the complete list of audio files here) are rather innocuous in their content, CNN reports how other "messages highlight the relationships between donors looking for favors and goodies, and the party officials trying to bring in money to their coffers."
And as The Hill reports:
One caller with an Arizona area code called to blast the DNC for putting Sanders surrogate Cornel West on the platform drafting committee.
"I'm furious for what you are doing for Bernie Sanders," another caller says in a message. "He's getting way too much influence."
"What I see is the Democratic Party bending over backwards for Bernie," adds the caller, who threatens to leave the party if the DNC doesn't stop "coddling" the Vermont senator.
It appears, as Politico also notes, that the voicemail files are not part of a new dump, though many outlets reported it that way, but rather an overlooked section among what WikiLeaks first published last Friday.
But as this news segment on ABC News from Wednesday helps show, the leaked emails—coupled with some of the more telling voicemails—reveal how big money and political favors help capture influence within the Democratic Party:
As Common Dreams has reported this week, the DNC leak has deepened divisions between the more progressive wing of the party which backed the campaign of Bernie Sanders and the establishment wing that largely controls the party apparatus and put its full support into making sure Hillary Clinton was selected as the nominee.

Appeals Against Sentence
Home / Appeals Against Sentence
Dec 21, 2017 DWCrime Line, Crime Social
In this article, we consider appeals against sentence from the Crown Court to the Court of Appeal. The appeal process can be complicated depending on the individual case, but here we outline the basics.
Early Indications
We ensure that all of our clients are given an early indication of the likely sentence range, depending on whether there is a guilty plea or conviction after trial.
In some cases, we can be relatively precise as to what might be expected, in others, the range can be quite broad, and in rare cases, it can be 'anyone's guess' only because the case is so unique. But generally speaking, mainly where there are sentencing guidelines in place, we are very good at letting clients know the likely outcome.
But, things do not always go to plan. The evidence may change during the case making it a lot more serious than originally thought (and it can go the other way as well), or the Judge may take a different view of the case, or, and this happens a lot, the Judge falls into error and makes a mistake when sentencing.
In all cases, following sentence, there should be clear advice on appeal. This will normally be given verbally, but you can have it in writing if you request that. In more complex cases it is usual for the advocate to set out in writing why an appeal is or is not appropriate.
If an appeal is advised, we will discuss this with you and take the next steps. Likewise, if an appeal is not thought to be viable.
What are the grounds for appeal?
There is a margin of appreciation in sentencing, which means that the Court of Appeal will not interfere merely because it would have sentenced differently.
There are 13 distinct grounds for appeal, but they conveniently break down into two broad labels. For the court to intervene the sentence must be either
Wrong in principle, or
Manifestly excessive
All appeals are considered initially by a Single Judge, who decides whether the case has merit or not. If that Judge refuses leave to appeal, then we will discuss the next steps with you.
If I am told not to appeal, can I ignore that advice?
Yes, you can. However, this should be discussed with us in advance because there are risks in proceeding with a meritless appeal. A court can impose costs, and also in some cases make a 'loss of time' direction, which means that release from prison will be delayed (14-42 days normally).
How long does an appeal take?
This depends on the complexity of the case and the listing requirements of the court, but appeals are typically heard within six months of being lodged with the court. If a person has received a short prison sentence, there is a procedure to expedite an appeal, and in some cases, they can be heard within a few days.
Can I get bail pending an appeal?
Only in rare cases will the court grant bail pending appeal, the usual remedy it to expedite the hearing in those cases where this approach is merited.
Where is the appeal heard?
Most appeals are held at the Court of Appeal in London, although occasionally the court sits at regional Crown Court centres. If you are in custody, you will typically be present via video-link, or if on bail you can attend the hearing in person.
Court of Appeal judges will hear the case, and you will be represented by an advocate at the hearing. In some cases, the prosecution is also present, but not always.
When will I find out the result?
In most cases, the result is announced at the end of the hearing. If complex issues are involved, then the decision might take a few weeks longer.
If you didn't represent me, can you advise on appeal?
Yes, we would be happy to discuss your case. For all criminal law related advice please contact us on 0117 902 8003 or info@danielwoodman.co.uk

Unlike mainstream settings all pupils who attend Fortuna School have an Education Health Care Plan with Social Emotional Mental Health identified as their primary need. School places at Fortuna are allocated through consultation with the Local Authority Additional Needs Department.
There is a three-step admissions process, which involves everyone involved with the child.
Referral documents of prospective pupils are sent by the child's caseworker at Additional Needs to the Head of School. The Senior Management Team will then assess if, from the information received the school would be appropriate and meet the child's needs. If after discussions the Head of School and SMT feel unsure then a member of the SMT will arrange to visit the pupil in their current setting. The school has 15 working days in which to raise any initial queries with Additional Needs.
Once the school has informed Additional Needs that there is a place for the child at Fortuna School the school's Office Administrator will contact parents/carers to arrange for themselves and the child to come to school for a preliminary visit and interview.
If the family and the school are in agreement that a place at Fortuna is in the best interest of the child, the parent/carer will be sent a letter of acceptance. This will be sent within 10 working days of the interview and will have details of the child's start date and timings for the transition period.
Where no appropriate vacancy exists a member of the Senior Management Team will contact Additional Needs and inform them of the date for the next available place. Once the place has been allocated conditionally to the child through Additional Needs Fortuna School will contact parents/carers nearer the start date and put into place the admissions procedure.

India's solar sector will outperform globally despite near-term challenges, says Fitch Solutions
With Narendra Modi being tipped to triumph again in the current Indian elections, Indian solar capacity is expected to grow robustly, at 15.3% per year, on the back of continued strong government support.
April 13, 2019 Uma Gupta
India will continue to overachieve in terms of solar capacity, regardless of the results of the Lok Sabha elections, say analysts.

Indian solar power capacity will grow robustly at an annual average rate of 15.3% to reach 105.9 GW by 2028, up from 26 GW in 2018 – according to the latest report from Fitch Solutions Macro Research, a unit of Fitch Group.
"Our view is underpinned by continued strong government support for the solar sector, including aggressive growth targets, a large number of capacity tenders and the increasing efforts to establish a favorable investment environment for the technology," stated the report. "This is coupled with the government's increasing efforts toward encouraging rooftop solar installations which will ensure that distributed small-scale facilities become a supportive factor to solar growth."
Fitch analysts expect India to continue to outperform rival markets over the next decade as recent problems such as safeguarding tariffs and uncertainty over goods and services tax (GST) will have only a near-term impact.
Predicting Modi's BJP party will be victorious as part of the National Democratic Alliance in the Lok Sabha elections, the analysts said: "The strong renewables growth has been seen as a key marker of Modi's power sector reform success and we believe the Modi government will seek to overcome some of these potential rising costs through the provision of preferential policies and increased funding and subsidies." Should the elections spring a surprise, any new government would be unlikely to renege on renewables policies, they added.
No long-term hurdles
The 25% safeguarding duty applied to solar cells and modules from China and Malaysia, GST uncertainty and land availability and acquisition issues have weighed on investor confidence, however, as evidenced by a 27.8% fall in the amount of new solar capacity added last year, compared to 2017.
However, Fitch analysts believe those obstacles to solar adoption will affect growth only in the short term as developers are stalling projects to bypass the two-year tariff on east Asian products. Fitch researchers believe the new Indian government is unlikely to renew safeguarding duties after two years, due to their lack of effectiveness in boosting domestic solar manufacturing.
GST uncertainty is expected to ease in the months ahead, as developers will be able to renegotiate corresponding compensation from state commissions through power purchase agreements that offer GST relief.
Developers will be able to seek alternative sources of cheap solar equipment against a backdrop of falling prices, say the analysts. According to data from the Ministry of Commerce, the application of safeguarding duty on Chinese and Malaysian products has seen cell import volumes from Thailand and Vietnam rise significantly. Those imports have comparable prices, not surprisingly given Chinese manufacturers have set up fabs in those markets to bypass duties.
Government push buoys outlook
The Fitch analysts highlight that in the first few months of this year alone, the Indian government set up schemes to support solar – including 12 GW of new grid-connected capacity for government use; tariff policy amendments to introduce renewable power obligations; waiving inter-state transmission charges for solar and wind projects for 25 years; drawing up a new National Electricity Plan to develop transmission systems and incorporate 175 GW of renewables into the grid by 2022; and implementing the Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan program to help farmers install solar pumps and grid-connected PV projects.
That is all on top of the aggressive growth targets and large number of capacity tenders being held, particularly for the development of solar parks and 'ultra mega' solar projects.
An increasing focus on rooftop solar also has the potential to bypass the land availability and acquisition issues that dog large-scale installations, and buoys a positive long-term outlook for solar growth. The government has implemented a string of programs to promote rooftop solar which offer financial support and subsidies for residential, social and institutional PV systems.
The government has also attempted to reduce the financial risks and implementation costs associated with solar project development by improving the facilitation of concessional loans from lenders such as the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank which have committed strong financial support.
Indian banks have sought to increase the availability of loans too. For example, renewable energy and solar was established as a 'priority sector' for loans by the Reserve Bank of India and eight other public sector banks have also included rooftop solar as part of their housing lending.

Washington Post: In Florida, modified sentences and 'rocket dockets' aim to ensure felons can still register to vote
This story was originally published by the Washington Post.
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Florida judges and prosecutors are working with felons and public defenders to find ways to register former inmates to vote, a process approved by voters last year that Republican legislators have made more difficult.
To work around a law passed this spring that requires individuals to pay all fines, fees and restitution before they can register, court officials in cities such as Miami and Tampa are modifying sentences and making plans to allow some debts to be converted to community service. In smaller towns, volunteers are holding fundraisers to pay off penalties for residents.
Voting-rights activists applaud these efforts but say they're worried that a patchwork of changes may confound hundreds of thousands of potential voters in the months leading up to the state's March 17 presidential primary.
"There is a lot of confusion," said Patricia Brigham, president of the League of Women Voters of Florida. "The legislature did not respect the will of the voters and did their own interpretation of Amendment 4."
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed the law in June — a change immediately affecting between 500,000 and 800,000 people who together owe more than $1 billion in charges stemming from their convictions.
Florida voters overwhelmingly passed the constitutional amendment, which automatically restored voting rights to most individuals with felony records upon completion of their sentences. The result, covering as many as 1.5 million people, represented the country's largest expansion of voting rights in a half-century.
But the GOP-led legislature added caveats. Supporters defend them as a way to ensure that criminal sentences are fully completed.
On Monday, Miami-Dade County officials announced a plan to modify sentences for felons who still owe fines or fees so they can vote. Restitution — money that offenders owe victims — is less common and cannot be waived under the new statute.
Across the state in Tampa, Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew H. Warren views his "rocket docket" strategy as a way to keep people from being trapped in the system by sums that can reach into the thousands of dollars.
"Florida disproportionately burdens poor people coming through the court system," he said, noting that expecting them to pay "excessive fines and fees" is unrealistic.
Released felons owe Hillsborough County an estimated $500 million — and typically about 3 percent is collected, Warren said. Without intervention, such as converting most felons' fines and fees into community service, he fears that thousands of "returned citizens" will never be able to vote.
"You end up with a two-tiered criminal-justice system," he said Monday. "We're trying to avoid creating two classes of voters: people who can afford to vote and people who cannot."
Of the state's 20 judicial circuits, just a few have announced any plan to help felons deal with outstanding fines so they can register.
A Restoration of Voting Rights Work Group, required in the new law, has yet to meet, even though it must be running by Thursday. Sarah Revell, spokeswoman for the Florida Department of State, said the agency "is on track to fully comply" with the law, which also mandates a report to the legislature by Nov. 1.
Neil Volz is the political director for the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition, the group that organized the campaign to pass Amendment 4. He lives in Lee County in southwestern Florida, where no system has yet been set up to help felons get past the financial hurdle.
But volunteers there are raising money to pay off some of those debts.
"There are folks trying to be creative and operate under the law to get returned citizens plugged in and registered," Volz said. "We have returned citizens across the state working with local officials to manage this."
Volz's organization offers assistance on its website for people who want to apply to have their sentences modified in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties.
Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg said in a statement Monday that his office wants to develop a system "that fulfills the promise of Amendment 4."
The American Civil Liberties Union, the Brennan Center for Justice, the Florida State Conference of the NAACP and the League of Women Voters of Florida sued the state soon after DeSantis signed the law adding those financial caveats. The groups want the state to adhere to the language of the amendment approved by voters. The amendment exempted only felons convicted of murder or felony sex offenses.
"If you're in Miami-Dade or Hillsborough and you've got officials trying to help returned citizens to register, that's great," said Brigham of the League of Women Voters. "But what if you live in a part of the state where that isn't happening?"
Democracy Wins at the Ballot Box with Voting Rights Expansion in 2018 Midterms
The League celebrates 2018 midterms voting rights victories in Florida, Maryland, and Michigan. When it came to issues of elections, voters overwhelmingly selected to expand voting rights.
LWV of Florida reaching those who care about restoring felon voting rights
This November, Florida voters will be presented with Amendment 4—a ballot amendment that would restore voting rights to people who were convicted of a felony offense, but have since served their sentences, completed parole or probation, and paid restitution.
LWV Iowa Pushes Back on Voting Purge Aimed at Returning Citizens
The LWVIA and in partnership with Brennan Center sent a letter notifying the Secretary of State (SOS) that the state voter list maintenance practices for people disenfranchised because of felony convictions appear to violate Section 8 of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 ("NVRA") and a section within the state constitution. Some of the listed voters had not been convicted of felonies and remained eligible to vote.


When: First Tuesday of every month, 7-8 p.m.
A relaxed and informal gathering for men. It's a group of men over 50 who meet for a coffee and a chat, discussing issues of interest and concern, with plenty of laughs. You are welcome to come to one of our chat groups and meet new people in a friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

JG Afrika's extraordinary depth of expertise in all facets of road engineering
Technology Paves the Way for Improved Monitoring and Evaluation
Precast concrete technology comes out tops on critical water projects
The firm has a long and impressive track record in transportation with a solid history in rail and road engineering.
Today, JG Afrika's team comprises some of South Africa's foremost road and traffic and transportation engineers, who continue to play their part in helping the country's roads authorities design efficient, accessible and, importantly, safer road networks.
Road-traffic signs in KwaZulu-Natal
For example, seasoned Engineering Technologist, John Falkner, is currently overseeing the visual audit, assessment, detailed design, procurement and construction monitoring for the provision of road-traffic signs (RTS) in KwaZulu-Natal on behalf of SANRAL.
The project entails assessing the condition of the existing RTS and replacing those that do not conform, in addition to providing new signage where required on both tolled and non-tolled sections of SANRAL's road network in KwaZulu-Natal.
"This vast 'site' includes sections of the N2, N3, N11, R22, R61 and P720. The network spans well over 2 000 km in both directions and traverses towns as far afield as Kokstad, Newcastle, Hluhluwe and Port Edward," Falkner says.
He adds that the different types of roadways on the SANRAL KwaZulu-Natal road network have made this an extremely interesting and challenging project.
The network includes freeways with multi-level interchanges, such as the N3 from Durban to Pietermaritzburg and the N2 from Isipingo to Umhlanga, while the R22 between Hluhluwe and Kosi Bay Border Post is a two-lane rural roadway that serves a large community and world-class tourism resorts.
The type and quantities of signage required for these different functioning roadways are, therefore, varied in the extreme.
Having completed the designs, Falkner also looks forward to the installation of the signs as part of the next phase of the project.
As the factory where they will be manufactured might be located outside of KwaZulu-Natal, delivering the signs (which when erected are much wider than the freeways) with their supporting poles to the hundreds of sites across the road network will be one of the biggest logistical complexities of this project.
Road markings in the Free State
Meanwhile, experienced civil engineer, Shalen Jangali, a JG Afrika Technical Director, is overseeing the firm's team of maintenance engineers deployed on another SANRAL project in the Free State.
It is one of two SANRAL trials in the country that are geared at improving the quality of road markings on the national road network by introducing performance-based marking contracts.
"The client is concerned that there have been too many instances where road markings have deteriorated long before their specified 15 year lifespan. Under this new system, payment is only made to the contractor once it has been ascertained that the paint complies with minimum standards. This approach is, therefore, expected to significantly improve the quality of markings on the road network," he says.
The line length is 500 km and 850 km on the tolled and the non-tolled roads respectively.
JG Afrika is working alongside a private company, City Markings, which is also testing a water-based paint on a seven kilometre non-performance based section of road in Welkom.
One of the biggest advantages of this road marking technology is its ability to provide improved glass bead retention to extend retro-reflectivity and evening visibility, while durable whiteness increases the conspicuity of the markings during the day.
Moreover, the water-based paint is safer to work with, easier to clean and considered a "greener" alternative to its chemical-based counterparts.
For comparison, a tried-and-tested thermoplastic paint is being applied on the performance-based sections of the project.
The project is not without its challenges, one of which is the cold winter temperatures that can reach minus eight degrees Celsius in the province.
While making working under these conditions is difficult, the cold paint also causes the pipes of the application machines to clog and careful planning and preparation is therefore required to avoid delaying the project.
A further constraint is that JG Afrika and City Markings must closely coordinate their work with other road maintenance teams operating in the province.
Road Asset Register in the Western Cape
Steve du Toit is a senior associate of JG Afrika and has a wealth of experience in road-construction management.
He is overseeing the team appointed by the Western Cape Department of Transport & Public Works to collect roads inventory data for its new sophisticated road-asset register.
The new road-asset register is a first of its kind in the country. Significantly more detailed than its predecessor, the system will provide the provincial government with an accurate measure of value of its road assets.
It is an extensive undertaking that spans about 4 000 kilometres, including all trunk, main, divisional and minor routes, in the West Coast District Municipality.
"We started with the most complex aspect of the project, namely logging and collating the numerous visible features, such as markings, guardrails, culverts and services, along the about 2 000 km of trunk and main roads. A short 23 km section of the R55, for example, has more than 600 visual features and a 12,5 km portion on the R40 has just under 300 road items that had to be verified," he says.
Many digital pages, each with up to 15 lines of visible road items, have already been generated for the trunk roads component of the project.
At the same time the company's teams also had to maintain an especially high level of precision, in built-up areas along the road network. when collating the many different visible features, ranging from road markings and traffic signals through to overhead transmission and telephone lines.
Information is pre-recorded on a tablet and verified on site by ticking set boxes on a software program. This data is then uploaded onto the Department of Transport & Public Works' central system and signed off by Du Toit.
Establishing the benchmark
The team is supported by Dr John Sampson, who has participated in many large traffic and transportation projects at JG Afrika.
One of the highlights of his long career includes being a member of the Pretoria, Witwatersrand and Vereeniging (PWV) Consortium of road planning and design experts.
The Consortium undertook the future planning for all provincial arterial roads and freeways in three metropolitan areas of the Transvaal that would eventually become Gauteng under the new democratically-elected government.
Other milestones in his long career include being head of the TTT Africa teams undertaking the transportation master plans for several new "cities" that are now coming into fruition.
These include the 600 ha Modderfontein (roughly equivalent in size to Sandton); Waterfall City, a vast development from Sunninghill all the way through to Tembisa; and Steyn City, in which JG Afrika became involved right in the early phases when this large urban node was only an idea mooted by Douw Steyn.

The Incendiaries deals with religious fervour and faith warped into something toxic — something dangerous and violent — when Phoebe Lin is drawn into a religious group lead by the enigmatic John Leal as a result of her traumatic past and battle with depression. Will Kendall is our primary narrator in this book that focuses on three young Korean Americans; Will, who has just transferred from Bible College to Edwards University, a lapsed evangelical struggling to fill the hole in his soul where his seemingly incorruptible faith once resided. He is uncertain of his place in the world, but finds much-needed solace in his burgeoning romance with Phoebe — which makes its corruption as a result of Edwards dropout Leal, and his extremist cult, all the more heartbreaking.
Eight years after writing The Dying Light, Henry Porter returns with Firefly; a fast-moving, intelligent thriller that proves his writing and the appeal of his characters are as fresh as ever.
A Shout in the Ruins is a sprawling, richly textured epic, covering more than 100 years, that explores the legacy and ongoing effects of the Civil War. And while Kevin Powers' prose remains as sharp and assured as it was in The Yellow Birds — quite possibly my favourite novel about war — this book didn't resonate quite as strongly with me, purely because of its subject matter, and the conflict that forms its nucleus. The American Civil War isn't as transcendental — for me, at least, as a non-American with limited exposure to its history and brutalities — as the Iraq war, which was the focus of The Yellow Birds.
A Shout in the Ruins alternates between chapters set in the Civil War era and the mid-20th century. It opens with the mysterious disappearance, and rumoured death, of Emily Reid Levallois in the late 1860s, and then shifts back in time to recount the story of her life. It is a complicated novel, its narrative threads weaved together subtly, Powers' poetry rendering a brutal portrayal of Civil War-era Virginia. Various characters flit in and out of the spotlight, but each person is essential to Powers' tale, and the novel truly sings when a character is allowed an entire chapter to live and breathe on the page.
At its heart, A Shout in the Ruins is about the effects of the past on the present, and serves as a necessary reminder that some people still feel the ripples of a conflict more than 150 years old. Powers' cumulative portraits of the poor souls impacted by the Civil War — during the conflict itself, and years after it ended — is a masterpiece.

Book Review: At Peace
Choosing a Good Death after a Long Life
by Samuel Harrington MD – Grand Central Life & Style
reviewed by Damon Orion
"How do you want to die?" asks Samuel Harrington MD. "Do you want to suffer? Do you want your last conscious sensations to be the chest compressions of an emergency medical technician (EMT) separating your sternum from your ribs?"
Harrington, a graduate of Harvard College and the University of Wisconsin Medical School, served as Sibley Memorial Hospital's patient safety officer representative to the Johns Hopkins Medicine Board of Trustees. His experiences as a gastroenterologist gave him a firsthand understanding of the limitations and hazards of "assembly-line care." As such, he advises readers of At Peace to be wary of a health care system "designed to treat excessively." Using his father's story as an example of a good death, Harrington outlines steps that can be taken to avoid a medicalized death, characterized by what he calls "the state of a semi-conscious patient in an ICU or nursing home who is subjected to medical treatments beyond their direct wishes or beyond common sense."
At Peace takes a realistic look at the difficulties one is likely to encounter after age 75, presenting an overview of diseases commonly responsible for death in one's later years. For those who have come to the conclusion that an earlier death in relative comfort is preferable to a protracted one in a medical facility, Harrington discusses how to have "The Conversation" with a loved one about end-of-life wishes; explores the ethics and legalities of the voluntary refusal of fluid and food; offers advice on the preparation of advance directives; and encourages readers to create a vision of their own death. It is the author's hope that this information will "maximize the possibility that one can pass away surrounded by friends and family, with minimal suffering, uninterrupted by ineffective medical interventions, at home (if desired or possible) and at peace."

Yesterday I commented on binge-eating, and how to begin learning to prevent binge episodes. Here are some additional tips for learning to control binge-eating and ways to stop yourself during a binge.
What were your thoughts prior and during the binge?
What was the outcome of the binge?
Did your emotions increase or decrease?
Did this help you reach your long-term goals?
Do you have regrets? The guilt and shame associated with a binge-eating episode only serve to further push you into a negative coping cycle, increasing the likelihood of bingeing again.
REMEMBER: purging (throwing up) after a binge is NEVER the answer. Most of those calories have been absorbed into your body anyway. People who purge do vast damage to their internal system, retain water and appear bloated, and can have a host of potentially life-threatening medical complications.
If you notice the binge while you are doing it, slow down! Stop yourself if you can.
Think about the decisions you are making. A binge episode is not just one big decision, it is multiple decisions over time, and can be stopped at any point.
You can stop a binge after 5 bites, 10 bites, etc.
Remember that stopping a binge mid-way is better than continuing to eat everything in sight.
Think about calories over the week versus moment to moment. Less calories in today, even if over your allotment, makes a big difference at the end of the week.
What is this behavior going to accomplish for me?
How will I feel after this episode is done?
Will I feel better if I stop now?
How is this impacting my long-term goals?
How will this impact my self-talk and positive versus negative thinking?
Whenever you engage in a behavior your regret, something you wish to change about yourself and develop more personal control over, it starts with thinking about the event without placing great guilt and shame. Even if you don't realize it until it is over, thinking about what happened (even if thinking happens the next day), will make it more likely you will catch yourself sooner next time (this is true for impulsive arguments with loved ones too!). Paying attention to your mind, body, and behavior will help you learn to slowly change and control those behaviors.

Yellen Urges Congress To 'Act Big' To Prop Up Pandemic-Scarred Economy
President-elect Joe Biden's pick to lead the Treasury Department, Janet Yellen, here in 2019, is urging greater federal spending to cope with the pandemic and to help boost the struggling economy.
Janet Yellen, President-elect Joe Biden's nominee to lead the Treasury Department, made the case for aggressive economic relief, urging lawmakers to "act big" to fight the financial fallout from the coronavirus pandemic.
At her confirmation hearing Tuesday before the Senate Finance Committee, Yellen pressed lawmakers to pass the $1.9 trillion spending package that the incoming administration has proposed to keep families and businesses afloat as well as to accelerate vaccinations against COVID-19.
"Without further action, we risk a longer, more painful recession now and longer-term scarring of the economy later," Yellen said. "In the long run, I believe the benefits will far outweigh the costs."
Yellen, a labor economist who chaired the Federal Reserve from 2014 to 2018, would be the first woman to lead the Treasury Department. Her nomination has the backing of all the living former Treasury secretaries, both Democrats and Republicans.
Democrats argue that the government was too quick to withdraw support for the economy during the global financial crisis, saying it contributed to a slow recovery. But committee Republicans expressed doubts about some parts of the Biden proposal, which includes a $15 minimum wage and substantial aid to state and local governments.
"Now is not the time to enact a laundry list of liberal, structural economic reforms," said Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, the committee's chairman.
GOP critics also expressed concern about adding to the federal debt.
Yellen agreed that fiscal responsibility is an important, long-term goal. But she argued that with interest rates at historic lows, it would be a mistake for the federal government to pinch pennies at a time when COVID-19 is killing thousands of Americans every day.
"The most important thing, in my view, that we can do today to put us on the path to fiscal sustainability is to defeat the pandemic," Yellen said.
She argued that government spending is necessary not only to provide immediate help to struggling families and small businesses but also to fund investments in infrastructure, research and worker training in an effort to promote more equitable growth over the long term.
"Well before COVID-19 infected a single American, we were living in a K-shaped economy — where wealth built upon wealth while working families fell farther and farther behind," Yellen said. "This was especially true for people of color."


Tattooist / Piercer – There are occasionally jobs available for experienced artists in Ayia Napa's tattoo studios. It is best to try and set up meetings with the managers prior to the start of the summer season which is best done by phone. Phone numbers can be found on Facebook pages or websites for each studio. You can also walk in and apply in person but there is less chance of jobs being available once the season is underway.
Watersports/ Diving – Most watersports companies in Ayia Napa are family run and so do not take on casual staff in the summer. If you have particular experience with watersports though you may be considered if they really need someone. Visit the watersports agent at the beach and ask for any vacancies. Diving companies on the other hand do often take on experienced scuba divers to guide diving trips and trial dives.
Rentals agent (Bikes, quads etc) – Some rental shops will require sales staff and occasionally mechanics. They often prefer to take people who are resident in Cyprus so that there is less chance of staff leaving mid way through the summer but if you intend to stay for the full 6 months or longer then you may be considered. This is day time work so you must be able to get up each morning (7 days a week) and be competent to deal with paperwork, collecting payments and handling vehicles. You may also need to assess damages and assist at breakdowns. Apply in person to the rental shop at the start of the season.
Boat crew / ticket sales – There are lots of boat trips that sail from Ayia Napa and some will take on crew for the summer season. Jobs available with boat companies include bar work, divers, ticket sellers (based at the harbour) and entertainers. These jobs are usually 7 days a week. To apply, visit the harbour and ask at the boats you would like to work on.
Fast Food server – Some of Ayia Napa's late night snack bars take on staff each summer to serve food. Hours can be from 6pm until 6am usually 7 days a week, but may include free food. To apply ask directly at the fast food outlet. Dealing with often drunk tourists, handling money and preparing food would be the main duties plus some cleaning up.
Transfer rep – Some tour operators and travel companies take on casual staff just to do airport runs when they are busy. These are paid on an "as and when" basis with no permanent contract but you would usually be required on busy airport days in high season. You may be needed to work back to back transfers over 24 hours so ability to stay focused and fresh are important. Apply to the tour operators' resort office with a CV and look presentable and smart.

The waiting game
Presidential contenders, ministerial hopefuls and errant state governors are all caught up in the capital's political paralysis
Three groups of ambitious politicians stalk Abuja's corridors of power, hoping for events to unfold in their favour. There are the men who would be king: former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, former military head of state General Ibrahim Babangida, former Chief of Military Intelligence, Aliyu Mohammed Gusau and former Secretary to the Federation Babagana Kingibe. All stand ready to make their bid should President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua relinquish power before 2011, as many of the capital's pundits confidently predict.

BAY SHORE — A Charlevoix man was injured in a motorcycle-deer crash near Bay Shore early today, Monday.
Charlevoix County Sheriff Don Schneider identified the injured man as Stephen Gawne, 44. Police said Gawne was transported to Northern Michigan Regional Hospital by Allied EMS where he was treated for abrasions he sustained to his right leg and knuckles on both hands.
Deputies said the crash happened at about 4:45 a.m. as Gawne was traveling north on U.S. 31 near Murray Road in Hayes Township. Police said Gawne reported that he was unable to avoid a deer that crossed in front of him.
Police said Gawne was wearing a helmet at the time of the crash.
Deputies were also assisted at the scene by Charlevoix Ambulance and the Petoskey Department of Public Safety.

Thanks, everybody for the great comments and total lack of hate mail having to do with that last post. You all continue to surprise me with your coolness. I've clambered down off my soapbox now and put it in the closet for the time being (the better to reach the top shelves!) It occurred to me that probably I should post something here and yet I have no humorous anecdotes or righteous indignation for you today. So instead, I offer this product review and subsequent stream-of-consciousness blathering. Enjoy!
Amy recently endorsed Philosophy On a Clear Day Blemish Serum over on the Advice Smackdown, which I read since I am girliness-impaired. I hadn't even been inside a Sephora until last summer. But Amy said this Blemish Serum, while ridiculously expensive, was well worth plunking down some serious cash for since it was so highly effective. And, as of recently, this sort of product has become of interest to me due to some problematic skin issues.
See, when I said that I seldom worry, I meant it. Occasionally, I will begin to worry about something and then I tell myself, "well, that's not helping" and I stop. Seriously. But sometimes, even the most "eh" of us have stress in our lives. I personally don't so much feel stress as see it break out on my face.
Ah, yes. Amy (that's Roommate Amy, not Internet Rockstar Amy) and I visited Sephora on Saturday night, where we wandered around looking for some skincare. Normally, I find that you have to peel the Sephora salespeople off with a spatula, but apparently, should you actually be looking for something, you're pretty much on your own. Amy had just picked up the box when a Sephora boy in chartreuse eye shadow (uh huh) finally came over to ask if we needed any help. We resisted the urge to hand him the nearest bottle of eye makeup remover.
Short story VERY long, Amy was right, and in my (rather limited) experience with it, this stuff is a miracle product. So should you have need of such a product, get thee to Sephora. And if not, then hooray for you, but I'm pretty sure the rest of us don't want to hear you gloat about it.

Florida International University (FIU) is seeking a business partner to develop and commercialize Antibacterial Compounds Targeting Bacterial Topoisomerase I. These compounds are derived from a novel topoisomerase inhibitor scaffold that is distinctive from other previously known topoisomerase inhibitors, thus avoiding potential problems of non-selectivity and cross-resistance.
The topoisomerase I activity has been shown to be essential for bacterial viability and infection in a murine model of tuberculosis. Tuberculosis (TB) infects 9.6 million people a year and causes 1.5 million deaths each year. The problem presented by multi-drug resistance is illustrated by the 480,000 cases of multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB) that do not respond to first line treatment drugs, with around ten percent of these cases being extensively-drug resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) that are resistant to even some of the second line drugs. Antibacterial compounds targeting topoisomerase I as a novel target may be effective against drug resistant pathogens, including MDR-TB and XDR-TB that cannot be eliminated by current antibiotics. Antibiotic resistance is also a major problem for treating non-tuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM). However, many of the small molecules identified previously as bacterial topoisomerase I inhibitors are DNA intercalators or minor groove binders, which are not considered attractive candidates for antibiotics development.
The inventors have developed compounds of different molecular structures as inhibitors of mycobacteria topoisomerase I activity and mycobacteria growth. Antibacterial assays demonstrated that these compounds are bactericidal against Mycobacterium smegmatis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The minimal inhibitory concentrations for growth inhibition of M. smegmatis increased with overexpression of recombinant M. tuberculosis topoisomerase I, consistent with inhibition of intracellular topoisomerase I activity being involved in the antimycobacterial mode of action.

Saturday night I caught Sir Thomas Allen in a recital of music by Fauré, Duparc and Ravel at the Wigmore Hall.
The first half was Fauré's La bonne chanson and L'Horizon chimérique and I thought they were great. I still had a bit of a hangover from all the merriment of Friday night so when it came to interval and everyone was bitching about how the old man was struggling through the music people started knocking back the drinks in the bar when they found out I was enjoying it.
