Paula Hannigan Heather Brown Is a well-known author, some of his books are a fascination for readers like in the Under Construction book, this is one of the most wanted Paula Hannigan Heather Brown author readers around the world.
3.25 starsI know kids , especially boys are mad about construction and I think this book is cut, but I am living in a construction boom once small town keeps growing. From one stop light growing up towell I stopped counting after 8. To mom and pop stores to Big boxes Progress is fine but I am tried of Construction. my once pristine from the library view out the window to the mountain is now marred by a "TRACTOR SUPPLY STORE" Sign.d it just makes me sad! But boys will like this book so read on!
When the signs go up and the big machines come out, you know something's under construction.This was another gift from super cool Auntie to The Boy (2), and considering that the sight of a digger will set him up for hours, this was a guaranteed win. Every page is full of things to look at and point out, and it does seem a bit sign-obsessed, but it's also educational, so it's pretty great all around. This one often ends up in hand when it's time to pick a book to take into the crib.
This book was not very interesting to me yet. I do not know many things in the pictures, mom says that's OK because I learn about it from the book but that is not as fun for me. also this book is all about signs and words on signs and I just don't care about that yet. maybe some day when I am older.1/7/17 there is a cat in this book! I like to find him on the pages. and in the last page there is a car and a ball and a choo choo!
My son loves this book, but it is definitely not my favorite. I personally do not find the story very engaging. And the pictures are so-so. The one thing I DO like about this book is that all of the vehicles in the pictures are labeled. So, as someone who is not super familiar with construction vehicles, at least I know what to call them when I read this book with my son!


How is the rental agreement made in Jaipur, Rajasthan?
Review what clauses and terms are to be included in the agreement and prepare a draft document.
Print the draft on stamp paper of state-approved value.
The definite measure as such does not vary much from that of other states in India. It begins with the occupant and proprietor discussing what would be the rent, maintenance charges and what conditions should be included into the agreement.
This is carried by either one of the party approaching a legal lawyer to make the final version of the agreement. The lawyer then locates a stamp vendor and he gets the deed printed on stamp paper of whatever value the State Law requires. Both parties who are involved sign on the document, along with their two witnesses. The deed is afterward gets registered at local sub-registrar office.
Moreover, these ways are widely inculcated, the cost may vary depending on what the lawyer charges his fees.
Pre-Requisites of stamp duty charges.
Stamp duty is a tax that is levied to make any document legally valid. If in case somebody fails to pay the required stamp duty, the penalty for it will incur an additional fine up to ten times the actual stamp duty. The stamp duty charges for Rajasthan are 5% leasing a property with duration less than 20 years & it changes as per the direction of Government from time to time..
The requirement of Stamp Papers.
Rajasthan announced the issuing of stamp papers as early as 2011. After that, many centers across popular states have come up with issuing an e-Stamp paper. Also, the e-Stamp papers are available, some sections still resort to conventional Stamp papers, especially in the lesser developed cities.
Registration of The Rental Agreement.
Registration is a process to stay safe from forgeries and frauds. If a document is registered, it means that the entities that are been mentioned in the document are the ones who have duly signed the documents and it also helps to prove that the document has not been forged. Registering a document for a property can provide details about feuds/ pending cases about it.
The charges for Registration in Rajasthan of the rental agreements are charged at 1% of the value.
Rental Agreement of 11 Month: Among one of the most common types of rental agreements, this agreement is used mostly always for residential properties. The term for this contract is 11 months as the name describes with the option to renew should depend on both parties wish. Registration and notarization are usually escaped for this agreement.
Commercial Lease: Commercial leases are signed only for business purpose. It could be between an individual and a business or between business and business. Both ways, this kind of lease do not have the standard format as it depends upon the needs of the business. The commercial lease also incur some huge money being paid upfront and also sometimes high rent charges. As this is much like a business deal, registration and notarization are never looked out.
Long Term Lease: Long-term leases are signed for residential purpose. The term of the lease is quite longer than a year. This lease may require some amount in a lump sum to be paid quickly although the amount is refundable and is kept in the form of deposit.
Late payment penalty: It is ok for the owner to charge a fine if the tenant has made any delays in making rent payments. Further nature of actions of such a penalty has to be mentioned clearly in the rental agreement.
Maintenance charges, Rent, and security deposit: The total amount for each of the expenses must be entered separately in the contract so that there is no chance of any confusion.
Food Culture: If the owner wishes to prevent the non-vegetarian food and the consumption of alcohol/ narcotic drugs in his property, it shall be done through the contract.
Pets: If the owner does not like entertaining pets in his area, he is expected to mention that in the contract. If such a clause is not included, you cannot do anything if the tenant has kept the pets.
Breaching the contract: If either party disagrees from the contract or breaches it or tries to alter it , the consequences of the same must be mentioned out in lease agreement.
Another amount which can be collected from the tenant, with in view of his intention of blocking the property of the tenant. Once the owner collects the token money in advance, the property is to be considered been booked for the tenant. The owner must then remove the advertisement to generate more interests from different tenants. The money is usually nonrefundable and among them any of the party wants to back out after paying the token money in advance they will have to compensate for the losses incurred by the other party.
There are various process for the registration but it depends upon the borrowers also nowadays the government has simplified the process and due to this, the fraud happening with the properties are decreasing in number.

Social Media in Sports Public Relations: Guest Post by Gina Yeadon
Social Media has become a useful tool for conveying communication in our world today: a unique platform that merges communication by informing the public in an engaging way and gives them the ability to interact with the information that has been brought to their attention.
While effective in relaying information, storied forms of communication, like television, radio, and print do not facilitate immediate reactions and engagement to the information. Our generation has become so heavily attached to the Internet and social media, because it represents a form of communication that is trendy, fun, and convenient for anyone to have a voice about the information that interests them.
In the world of sports, social media has become an incredibly valuable tool used to inform and engage the public, and the industry itself has benefited greatly. Teams and players can be easily promoted as a tool to generate public interest, and sites like twitter and facebook have become integral to the growth. Because communication happens in real time, sports news and player information have the capacity to be exposed almost instantaneously.
The attractiveness of social media has caused a high demand of information being released where people want to access the information when it happens, enabling reliance by sports fans and supporters to be kept up-to-date on sports news that interests them. Engagement by fans, across the world, is constantly growing; so social media has created an even greater interaction and interest in sports, especially from the younger generation.
Additionally, social media has enhanced many key highlights in sports: the use of Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram has a powerful and engaging effect especially at big sporting events like the Super Bowl. Super Bowl XLVII is an example of one of the most social events that takes place every year. Compared to the 13.7 million tweets during the 2012 Super Bowl, there was a skyrocketing 24.1 million tweets sent out pertaining to Super Bowl XLVII. The game had set a new record for tweets-per-second and the half time performance starring Beyonce generated 260,000 tweets-per-minute.
During the Super Bowl, Instagram was a very useful platform for the Oreo brand and its image. Their post, which was a unique real time advertisement, combined with their proactive promotion of the game before its start, increased Oreo's Instagram presence exponentially. For an event of this magnitude, which has always been known for its high-stakes, premium television commercials, this unconventional-yet very effective form of advertisement ignited an interaction with the audience, and an ongoing conversation still being discussed today.
A sport like Major League Baseball, which generally attracts an older audience, is currently using social media to relate to a younger demographic. Major League Baseball created the MLB Fan Cave to do so. The MLB Fan Cave is an online space, mlbfancave.com, and physical space in New York City which functions as a tool to promote the game and promote its star players. Nine diehard baseball fans from around the country were chosen to live in the MLB Fan Cave and watch all 2430 games of the regular season. They are seen as social media correspondents for real-time updates and stories that are happening in the game. MLB also hosts concerts, celebrities, art openings and more which connects baseball to pop-culture, in-turn broadening the fan base of the cave and the game.
Concepts like the MLB Fan Cave and Oreo's real time advertising during the Super Bowl are just two examples of the large steps that the sports industry is taking in social media. In today's age, we are not only talking about game highlights or current standing but also off-the-field insights and behind the scenes stories. The conversation never stops and there is something for everyone.
Great post Gina. Really found it interesting to see how social media is starting to become woven into sports. It is even seen that hashtags are put on the bottom of the screen during the events.
Great post Gina. Really found it interesting on how social media is starting to become woven into the world of sports. It seems that now a days a sporting event can't go on without encouraging viewers to tweet about the event using specific hashtags that run on the bottom of the screen. Look forward to reading your next post.
Gina for president!
Great post. Social media and real time advertising are the way marketing is moving and the sports industry has definitely seemed to embrace these methods to create an enjoyable experience for the consumer.

Robert Pattinson Had a Pretty Weird Strategy for Avoiding Paparazzi During Twilight
How "American Horror Story: Cult" Relates to the 2016 Election
Producer Alexis Martin Woodall cleared things up.

Head's up, American Horror Story fans: Cult is about the election, but it's also not about the election. Allow us to explain.
It feels like this season has been teased forever, but first, let's quickly review what we we know: Ryan Murphy previously hinted that it would deal with the 2016 election. "Well, I don't have a title," he told Andy Cohen back in February, "but the season that we begin shooting in June is going to be about the election that we just went through. So, I think that will be interesting for a lot of people."
But at Wednesday night's Television Critics Associate panel, American Horror Story executive producer Alexis Martin Woodall explained that the election won't literally be front and center next season. She said, "When Ryan had to make the announcement originally that the season was going to deal with Trump, I think it's more about what's going on in our world around us," meaning that the election and its aftermath will inform the show, not be the show. So, probably no fictionalized debates or anything.
What we do know for sure about season 7 is that Emma Roberts is coming back, as are Evan Peters and Twisty the Clown; New faces to the franchise include Billy Eichner, Alison Pill, Billie Lourd, Colton Haynes, and Lena Dunham. Evan and Sarah Paulson will play a pair of Michigan-based lovers named Kai and Ally, according to TV Line; their love story will be the foundation of the season. There are lots of clowns. There are lots of bees. (Hive mind! The workers blindly following the will of the leader! We get the thematic connections already, Ryan Murphy, we are smart, please give us a good season of television!)
But Woodall also teased some other interesting tidbits about what we can expect from Cult: In addition to the "streak of paranoia" running through the new season, she said she'd describe it as "bloody tension, a well-cooked meal, an exciting trip to a grocery store. It is true to our brand, which is you are going to be in a whole new world all over again, and fall in love with these really special characters and hate yourself for watching it before you go to bed."
Don't say they didn't warn you. American Horror Story: Cult premieres on September 5 on FX.

Q: Understanding how WebJobs run I am struggling to answer this question for myself so can anyone answer it for me. How, exactly, do webjobs get run? By this I mean does the Azure framework manage access to the WebJob and are multiple instances run in separate processes?
I am under the impression that I get 12 or 16 parrallel instances by default. Is this correct? So if three messages are placed on a queue, that my webjob is triggered by, they will all run in parrallel.

A: AFAIK, when you scale out multiple instances, the webjobs will run on the instances in parallel in separate processes. But there are prerequisites of it,

*

*The webjob should be continous and not Manual/Scheduled.

*For this to happen correctly, you need to be running in Standard mode, and have the Always On setting enabled.

Note: If you use TimerTrigger in your webjob, it will not scale out. Refer to this article.

Behind the scenes, TimerTrigger uses the Singleton feature of the WebJobs SDK to ensure that only a single instance of your triggered function is running at any given time. When the JobHost starts up, for each of your TimerTrigger functions a blob lease (the Singleton Lock) is taken. This distrubuted lock ensures that only a single instance of your scheduled function is running at any time.

For more details about the issue, here are two similar posts for you to refer, 1 and 2.

HomeTummy TuckAverage Cost of Tummy Tuck: Can You Afford it?
There are various different procedures that a person can choose from, but if you are someone who is dealing with fat around the tummy area and you are not sure what to do about it, then it is the tummy tuck that you are really going to want to consider. Now it is really just a matter of whether or not you are going to be able to afford the mini tummy tuck cost or the basic average cost of tummy tuck.
While you can easily find out what the average cost of tummy tuck is, you do have to realize that this is just going to be an estimate, and the only way to get an actual pricing of what you are going to need to pay for this procedure, is if you go into a surgeon and ask them what the average cost of tummy tuck is going to be for you.
What Is Average Cost of Tummy Tuck?
Okay so you have seen what the average cost of tummy tuck is and you are willing to pay it, but is this procedure really right for you? Just because the results can be great, you do have to remember that this is still a procedure and there are possible risks and complications that you are going to need to be aware of.
It is important that you really think it over and determine whether or not this is something that is right for you, and make sure that it is something that you do really want to go through with and that you are not just making a random decision here because that is really not what you want.
You will want to take the time to find a qualified surgeon, and make sure that you know their history and more than anything you are going to want to take a look at their before and after pictures. This will be the best way for you to tell what sort of a surgeon they are and what type o work they do.
This way you get to see for sure whether or not they are someone that you would trust yourself in the hands of for a procedure like this.
As long as you can afford the average cost of tummy tuck then it is up to you if you want to go through with it, but of course you will need to get your doctor to sign some forms.


On the weekend of 10th June, 358 farms up and down the UK opened their gates to the public for LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming) Open Farm Sunday.
Germains were proud to support this event at Park Farm, Thorney which received over 12,500 visitors across the weekend and Worth Farms, Holbeach which has 2,300 hectares of arable farm. As a prominent supporter of agriculture events Germains encourage the engagement of the UK's future farmers into the community.
This event was first introduced by LEAF in 2006 with the aim to educate and engage local communities on the 'story behind our food and how farming affects our everyday lives'. The event has now been running for 13 years and had over 2.2 million visitors to farms across the UK.
As well as educating the next generation of growers, Germains aim at Open Farm Sunday was to encourage more people to build Ladybird Houses for their gardens. Ladybirds are beneficial insects as they can eat 50 or more aphids a day, hence perfect in any garden! Click here to learn how to make your own Ladybird House!
Along with Germains seed matching games there was a wide range of activities for the public to participate in, including a tractor safari, The Sheep Show and watching tractors that drive themselves!
Showcasing our technologies at this year's event offered a valuable opportunity to engage with British farmers and share our story on how we drive innovation and produce higher yields for UK farming.
Germains is continuing to support educating the importance of farming by attending Kids Country events and we look forward to next year's Open Farm Sunday which will return on 9th June 2019.


So apparently a trading a two and a five year old in Ghana for seventeen fifteen to eighteen year olds in Portugal does not equal a vacation. I was absolutely exhausted this week. I don't have too much to report, because I'm not real sure about what has happened. I'll see what I can do though.
After getting in at 9:30 and home after 11 I was not worth a whole lot on Tuesday. I was happy to be home though and it was good to play with my kids for a bit in the afternoon. Bed time however was missus reality slapping me in the face with a cast iron frying pan. Maddox completely flipped out when we had to take the toy that he got in his Kinder Egg away from him. He just wouldn't put it away at bed time, so we did. KABOOM! I think his little brain exploded or something because it was on like Donkey Kong for the next forty five minutes or so. Kickin and screamin and runnin and slammin doors and holy guacamole. I've tried to block it from memory as best I could. At one point when he was banging on the door and kicking walls and such I asked if he thought he would be able to explain all the noise to our upstairs neighbor in the morning. He got real quiet for a second and I thought I had finally found the kryptonite. Wrong. He paused just long enough to consider it and decided it was not an idea that worried him. Went right back into action. Eventually he just wore himself out I think. I do know that he finally went to sleep. They look so cute when they sleep.
Josie. Sweet Josie. Except for when she decides she doesn't want something and then screams at the top of her lungs. Yeh, that's the phase we're in right now. But let's continue with Tuesday night. Relative to Maddox she went down pretty easy. She was tired, but it still involved an extra rocking session, like babies and lullabies not like Van Halen. So anyway, we get a relative early bedtime ourselves and it seemed as though recovery might be on the horizon.
Enter Sandman. 10:37. I've almost reached that happy place of deep sleep when it all begins. Josie wakes up screaming. Not crying, screaming. Night terror. Holy blanket busters Batman that scared the bejeezes out of me. So Robyn takes a shot at consoling her. (Oh she's sick at this point by the way. Robyn, not Josie. Aches, itchy throat, run down. Possibly could it have been from exhaustion after a week alone with the kids?) So it's just like the old days when Maddox used to get them. Looking you in the eye with blank eyes crying and screaming. Nothing we could do but wait it out. And wait it out. And wait it out. And wait it… sorry. You get the idea. What seemed like four hours later, she finally settled down in our bed between us. That always makes for a good night's sleep. For some reason she instantly turns sideways when she falls asleep in our bed and she won't get under the sheet, just the blanket. So I get a foot in the back/face and a sheet that I can no longer pull completely over me. But they are so cute when they're sleeping.
So Wednesday was a little better.
The rest of the week was afternoons of playing in the pool and shooting for early bed times. Things got better and we made it to tonight. The always lovely Friday night. Took the kids out for pizza tonight at the Escapade. No Janet Jackson, just pizza. Maddox had asked if we could go out for pizza again since it had been a long time. So we did. The place was just at the end of our road so mighty convenient and it turned out to be pretty good and we only broke one glass. Josie is still trying to work out the physics behind using a straw.
So I think we've made it back to the regular routine. It was tough on all of us for me to be gone as long as I was. I think Tuesday was about a readjustment. At least the Maddox part. I'd rather not think that Josie had night terrors because I came home. We've got the usual weekend routine going. Soccer Saturday in the morning for Maddox and pick up soccer for me on Sunday afternoon. Some groceries and pool time somewhere in the middle there.
Oh, well and this weekend we also get our car fixed up. Robyn got hit I think Monday before I got home. Nothing serious. A guy backed into her on the street and it poked a good hole in our bumper. So he's coming to pick it up tomorrow to go get it fixed. Yeh, that's just kind of how it works here. There isn't a Maaco to take it too. Who knows where he takes it or how they fix it, but most likely it will come back looking like they did something to it. He's the driver for one of the families at Lincoln so there's that weird web of the kid in the car knew Robyn from school and Robyn knew the kids parents. Its an interesting place that way.
Oh, I forgot two things. These actually happened while I was gone, but I need to include them any way. First is a major mile stone. Maddox lost his first tooth! He's got a good story for it too. He lost it while at the National Theater watching a Ghanaian production of the Lion King. Come on now. Robyn said he was really excited when it fell out. He had been worrying over it for about two weeks. I hate I missed it. Apparently there were some really interesting conversations between him and Josie when he got his payment from the tooth fairy too. Funny.
The other isn't quite as big, but just one more pretty cool thing about where we live and work. Sunday Robyn was exhausted so she took our friend Julie, who just so happens to be Robyn's boss as well, oh, and my former boss, up on an offer to go to the beach. They ended up at a pool, but hey. So when I called that afternoon to talk for a minute, Julie answers the phone because Robyn is in the pool with the kids. Funny. It took a bit to process what was happening there. Apparently, as there is photographic evidence, Josie and Julie got to be buds in the pool. Funny. I love that those types of things happen with some regularity here. The principal of the secondary school, my boss, has bought Maddox popcorn and ice cream for after school snacks a couple of different times. He even came over to Maddox and me the day before I left and offered, to Maddox, to walk him to class in the mornings if he wanted him to. And it was genuine. Now not everything is all rainbows and plates full of fresh baked cookies with a tall glass of ice cold milk, sorry, I lost myself there for a minute, but it is a pretty good place to be. (As long as you don't mind the daily blistering heat, dodge the mosquitoes, don't drink the water and drive really carefully). Thankful.
Sunset over the Sahara on my way home.
King of the bleachers. Maddox hangs out and watches soccer while we have meetings or swim or whatever.
Josie and her knew doll Ama. The waiter at the Escapade helped name her.
She's got her purse and her doll. Its gonna be a good night.

I've long held that good code is like poetry (and I'm far from the only one). Everything should have a purpose, and if you ever repeat yourself, there should be a good reason. With various high-level coding languages, you can enable or even automate incredibly complex tasks with relatively little effort, and it's done by building on the foundations of lower-level machine languages, mid-level operating systems.
And since all that work has already been done, programming for a high-level language should feel a little like playing golf. I have all of these set tools at my disposal, now how do I get to the goal with the lowest number of moves?
One of the things I've seen consistently in new programmers, and something I observed in myself when I first started dabbling, is a misunderstanding of exactly how useful arrays can be, or even how to use them effectively.
Or objects, and even other arrays. Most textbooks and classes will also tell you that you can iterate through all of these elements to analyze or manipulate the data.
But, despite a very accurate and broad definition, that doesn't begin to touch on the core concept behind why grouping these elements is important, and what exactly they can enable. Let's start more simply and get larger as we go.
Then we would end up with something completely different, making something possibly unique with a preset grouping of data.
The game has combat, dynamic histories for encountered enemies, random weapons, quests, and a leveling system all built around arrays and random access to them.
But as a concept, random access only has limited use on an everyday basis outside of small subsets of programming like encryption work.
But that's still not everything you can do. We recently implemented stronger password security in our business, and part of that came down to a password rating system. A few years ago, I probably would have hardcoded my tests and just run them one at a time by calling them the traditional way, but if you think about it, wouldn't it be better to build an array of functions and run them sequencially, allowing the rules to be dynamic and easily changed over time?
And you don't have to name your functions if you're comfortable using anonymous ones. With this approach, a semi-random number generator, and some conditional logic, you can put together a basic AI relatively quickly.
Here at Armor, we use arrays for just about everything. If you see a piece of code without a loop of some kind over something we've pulled from the database, you're either looking at a static page or a relatively minor piece of our framework. We use arrays for passing back search data, for analyzing visitor statistics, for importing and converting old database schemas, building out navigation trees to search them for bad links, file browsing, and so much more.
And I think that's the disconnect. On its own, a grouping of data is relatively useless, but by linking that grouping to an access or manipulation concept, like looping, random, or indexed access, it opens a lot of fundamental doors that aren't inherently obvious when the concept behind an array is explained. And that seems to be where most people I'm interviewing get caught up. Arrays and Loops as concepts are not important on their own, they are foundational. They are tools that allow us to build much more complex functionality on top of them.


A major resort in the one of the world's most extensive ski areas, the Portes du Soleil.
A big, pretty mountain town that's popular with young, lively snowsports lovers.
Has an offering of over 100 restaurants, which serve up every type of cuisine.
Morzine is a picturesque, old-style Savoyard town with plenty of character and excellent skiing on its doorstep. It's part of the Portes du Soleil ski area – an intermediate skier's heaven that covers over 650km of piste, spans two countries and includes well-known resorts like Avoriaz, Les Gets and Châtel. Or you can beat the crowds and head to the Mont Chéry area, where you'll find some good, challenging runs a little closer to home. Morzine itself is large, with lots of shopping and evening entertainment, so there's plenty to do off the slopes.
Most of the accommodation here is made up of hotels but several of these are bed and breakfast giving you the opportunity to sample some of the local restaurants. If you prefer to enjoy the views from your hotel then we'd recommend the Hotel Le Viking located on the piste at the top of the Pleney lift. If you want to feed the family on a budget we'd recommend Etale which offers enormous pizzas as well as generously sized Savoyard dishes.
We've rated Morzine an Eco Aware resort, which means it's doing its bit to prioritise the environment. Our Eco Aware system rates resorts according to their policies on building, energy-saving and recycling, and on their reduction of fuel, traffic and waste.
Morzine has also been certified as adhering to the ISO 14001, a set of internationally recognised environmental management standards.
A vast selection of over 100 restaurants, from value-for-money bistros and pizzerias to top-quality gourmet establishments. They're generally very strong on Savoyard specialities, as well as the usual ski resort staples like pizza.
• La Grange – A cosy wood-clad dining room and heart-warming local food - from snail, mushroom and parsley parcels, to wild boar stew and duck shepherd's pie. There's also yummy raclette and fondue, including chocolate fondue.
• L'Atelier, Hôtel Le Samoyède – In a class of its own, this Michelin-starred restaurant offers exquisite dishes like open lobster ravioli, Charolais beef fillet and praline éclairs. The 7-course set menu is recommended.
• Mamma's – Cheap, fast food made with fresh ingredients - choose from pizzas, burgers, fish and chips, Thai curries, noodles and more.
• La Rotonde – Delicious cuisine, beautifully served by the excellent staff. The menu is one of the largest and most varied in town, and includes all-you-can-eat fondue, raclette and pierrade.
• L'Etale – Possibly the busiest eatery in resort, they serve a wide range of pizzas, pasta and meat dishes, as well as classic pierrade, fondue and raclette.
Morzine is a large town that's full of life. The nightlife here attracts a younger crowd, but it's far from rowdy. Make sure you try the local liqueur - Green Genepi - which is made from Alpine mountain herbs.
• The Dixie Bar – There are three bars inside this venue - an Irish bar that's famous for its Guinness and live music, a Spanish bar that sells San Miguel and tapas and a British bar that houses a pool table and Sky Sports.
• The Cavern Bar – In the middle of the village, this venue is ideal for both après and after-dinner entertainment. The prices are reasonable and there are happy hours on top of that, and there's even an opportunity to whip out your signature moves.
• Café Chaud – Tucked away and out of sight, this modest bar turns into a full-blown party soon after the sun goes down. The music ranges from jazz to house and drum 'n' bass and there's even a darts board if you're feeling competitive.
• Le Pléney has blue and red runs from every lift and the runs to Les Gets are great for intermediates. • Stop for lunch on the mountain at Mont Chéry - the views of Mont Blanc are incredible.
Our friendly airport team will meet you on your arrival and get you on your way to resort. Crystal reps will be available when you get to Morzine to ensure that you have everything you need to hit the mountain on the first day. If you need anything during your trip, just check our free Crystal Ski Explorer app to find out where they'll be, and come and have a chat. If you need assistance, you can call the Crystal team 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
As well as having links to the French Portes du Soleil resorts of Avoriaz, Les Gets and Châtel, Morzine also has relatively quick links to the Swiss resorts of Champery and Les Crosets. Though Morzine doesn't exactly have an ideal position on the Portes du Soleil circuit, a quick bus ride to Ardent and then a chairlift to Les Lindarets can take you to the French-Swiss border, and over into Champery, in no time. The circuit is ideal for those keen intermediates who want to explore as much of the region as possible and who want to try the gorgeous Swiss food - Chez Coquoz is a favourite offering a modern Swiss menu and a top-notch Valais wine list.
First-time skiers are well catered for in the Portes du Soleil area. Avoriaz has perfect nursery slopes next to the resort and Morzine has gentle nursery slopes at Le Pleney.
The Portes du Soleil is a fantastic area for intermediates. The skiing starts on your doorstep and for those who want to venture further, there is the entire Portes du Soleil circuit, with 650km of runs.
The Portes du Soleil area has some of the most challenging skiing in France. There are over 20 black runs, including some of the biggest moguls in the world on the 'Le Pas de Chovonette' at Avoriaz, not to mention endless off-piste possibilities and the hair-raising World Cup Downhill from the top of Les Hauts Forts.
Take to the tracks and explore 5 different cross-country ski areas. The Manche Valley area is known for being pure backcountry, Super Morzine is the biggest area with lots of high-altitude slopes which are accessible for all abilities, and the Montriond Lake is a tranquil route in the valley. All trails are free to use, other than if you need to use any lifts.
The Nyon and Chamoissiere peaks are the highest points in Morzine and the best for powder enthusiasts. Nyon has a multitude of lines down the face of the mountain beside the pisted runs, and it's easy to venture as little or as far as your experience allows from these lines. Chamoissiere, however, is a huge unpisted bowl. You can hike up higher for a greater drop into the bowl, if you fancy, too. What's more, both these areas can be accessed by lifts.
Family pass: To qualify for a family pass, all members of the family should have the same surname or provide proof they live together at the same address.
Lift pass coverage: Local lift pass covers all lifts in Morzine and Les Gets. Area lift pass covers the Portes du Soleil.
Usual hours of instruction: Start times vary in high and low season.
For complete beginners only and includes a 6-day local lift pass, 6 days equipment hire (including helmet for children) and 6 mornings tuition.
Includes a 6-day area lift pass, 6 days equipment hire (including helmet for children) and 6 mornings tuition.
The Portes du Soleil boasts breathtaking panoramic views and some of the world's most extensive and varied skiing. Avoriaz's high altitude and north-facing slopes ensure excellent snow, perfect when combined with the scenery and charm of the villages of Morzine and Les Gets. Access between Avoriaz and Morzine have been made even easier this year with the construction of brand new 'Prodains Funitel' a high speed lift to replace the old cable car linking the two resorts.

SUPPORT UKRAINE! BAN RUSSIAN AND BELORUSSIAN WOOD NOW!
SUPPORT UKRAINE! BAN RUSSIAN AND…
To all friends of Ukraine all over the world
Joint statement of Ukrainian, Belarussian and European environmental and human rights NGOs and activists
Russia, along with Belarus, is waging an aggressive war against Ukraine. The Russian military are firing missiles and bombs on urban settlements, killing hundreds of Ukrainian defenders and civilians, including children. The EU has called Belarus "the other aggressor in this war" and "complicit in the attacks" on Ukraine. The terrible toll of deaths and injuries will grow in the coming days, as fear, grief and anger continue to spread throughout Ukraine.
But we are not helpless.
Both Russia and Belarus rely heavily on the export of timber and wood products. In 2021, the export of timber and wood products from the Russian Federation was $13.9 billion USD. Western countries are the major markets for this wood, either directly or indirectly, including the United States of America, the European Union (EU), the United Kingdom, as well as countries such as Japan and China. Wood from these regions is used to make buildings, paper, clothes and furniture, and to fuel your power plants.
The financial resources the Russian and Belarussian governments gain from wood exports help to equip the Russian invaders, fuel their tanks and produce their bombs. Therefore, consuming Russian and Belorussian wood and timber products means supporting death and destruction in Ukraine.
Besides all the other demands for support for Ukraine's government, we, Ukrainian, Belarussian and European environmental and human rights NGOs and activists, appeal to all the governments of countries friendly to Ukraine: please, ban import of all types of Russian and Belorussian timber and wood products (including all paper products, furniture and furniture parts, pellets and sawn wood) now! While new sanctions on Belarus, announced by the EU in response to the Ukraine invasion, now include wood it is not clear that it includes all timber-both raw materials as well as higher processed goods like furniture.
We also appeal to international certification schemes, namely FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), SBP (Sustainable Biomass Programme) and PEFC (Programme for Enforsement of Forest Certification): please, wake up and terminate all forest management and chain of custody certificates for forest concessions and companies from both Russia and Belarus with immediate effect. Not a single stick of wood from these countries is sustainable when it is used to finance overwhelming destruction of a peaceful country.
We also affirm our support for all those affected by this attack, including those stranded at the Ukraine's border and denied safe passage because of the colour of their skin.
We need your support right now! Please, stop Russia and save the free people of Ukraine!

July 29, 2020harmon.ie Posts Strong First Half of 2020
What a difference 6 months make… Who could have predicted back in January the global lockdown, the sheltering in place mandate, and the immense impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic.
During the last six months, the global business community has learned to work from home, compressing the slow marathon to the digital workplace into a brisk sprint for the finish line. In the words of Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, "We've seen two years' worth of digital transformation in two months."
During the last six months, we have seen the rapid adoption of Microsoft Teams, going from just north of 10 million users at the top of the year to 75 million daily active users by April. And as workers hunkered down at home, tools like Microsoft Teams became lifelines to the remote workplace. The ability to check in with colleagues, customers, suppliers, and partners via virtual meetings and chat became the fuel that powered the remote working engine.
While at home, workers have had to become self-sufficient with technology, as they could no longer turn to colleagues in the next office or cubicle, or on-site IT staff for advice.
During this crisis, harmon.ie has been a godsend for organizations who rely upon Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, and Outlook to run their businesses. For the remote workers who need to be self-sufficient, harmon.ie makes it easy to capture, classify, and share emails and documents with colleagues. Now, with the added reliance of Microsoft Teams, harmon.ie has become more important than ever, because harmon.ie empowers organizations to run smoothly in the new, remote business environment.
Some key harmon.ie milestones achieved during the last six months, include the following:
New customers now benefit from harmon.ie's ability to connect remote business workers. New marquee customers added in 2020 include Arthur J Gallagher Services, Manulife, EBN BV, as well as Business Development Bank of Canada, EPA Victoria, and a host of other government agencies from a variety of nations.
Acceptance to the Microsoft Content Services Partner Program, deepening harmon.ie's relationship with Microsoft.
Announcement of new customer case studies including the story of how harmon.ie helps Drass Technologies in their mission to supply live-saving COVID-19 equipment to hospitals worldwide.
As we look ahead to the second half of 2020, harmon.ie will continue to make "the right thing the easy thing" for business users of Microsoft technologies, so they can focus on business instead of manipulating the underlying tools.


Being a violin teacher is one of the most valiant and rewarding of the professions. It is not only a career to uphold but also an enjoyable vocation of imparting the art of music to students. In order to become an effective violin teacher, you must be ready to take the challenges that come with it.
You must understand that there are different kinds of students, different levels of mastery and different degrees of grasp. In order to evaluate their individual capacity, give them a preliminary assessment. Nevertheless, whichever class they belong, you ought to start with the basics. Introducing them to the theory of music helps deepen their understanding and as well as establish greater passion for playing violin.
Be patient as you deal with the starters. Some of the basics that you must introduce are conducting, proper position, proper hold of bow, tuning of the violin, precise intonation, key signatures and finger patterns. The vibrato should also be introduced early. These are important things that students need to know in order to move to the next higher level.
You also have to be picky especially in the rhythm. Starting students must learn to count and to begin with the consistent tempo first. Make sure to set discipline about their goals and time management.
Look back to the time when you were also just learning and refresh what teaching style worked more effectively and try it to your students now. Do not depend on one reference book only; instead make use of repetitive etudes too.
Most importantly, build a friendly learning environment where the students can feel free to approach you and where you can also encourage them to boost their potentials. Make sure that you attend to their queries to the best of your knowledge. Giving the right motivation will help students intensify their passion in playing the violin.
Being a violin teacher necessitates creativity, open mindedness, flexibility, enthusiasm and passion. Keep in mind that teaching is also learning—a never ending process. It can also be helpful to enhance your own ability by taking a degree in music, advanced violin lessons and regular practice.
Additionally, exposure to different violin mentors will provide you insights on how to be efficient in teaching. You can also seek for their suggestions on which literature and method books are effective with the kind of students that you handle. Be acquainted with the different violin techniques as well as their differences from each other. And take part in violin performances, as they will give you greater advantage and exposure. In this manner, your students will also see how you put to practice what you teach them.
Finally, make sure to pursue your own music studio where you can independently hold demonstrations and recitals. As you encourage your students to goal for growth in the field of playing violin, you should also pursue your own growth as a violin teacher. There is nothing more gratifying than in seeing your hard work pays.

Artist repurposes plastic bottles to reduce waste and create sculptures
by Cindy Gaillard
You've seen recycled art before – those tractor parts that come to life as goofy dogs or mosaics made out of plastic bottle caps.
Some of it aims to be serious artwork. Some of it aims only to be cute. Some of it falls in the middle of the spectrum. And all of it gives us a good feeling, knowing that someone, somewhere is taking the detritus of modern life and reusing it in a meaningful way.
But if asked to name the media best suited for awe-inspiring artistic endeavors, our minds might still trend toward the old standards – paint, plaster, clay, stone, glass. We support the reduce-reuse-recycle ethos and, as a result, tend to think of recycled art as function over form.
Cue multimedia artist Aurora Robson. She uses plastic bottles – thousands of them – and creates sensual, ethereal sculptures that are at once powerful and delicate.
She even made one specifically for Columbus – Quality of Mercy, on display now at Franklin Park Conservatory. And the reactions it's getting go well beyond mere satisfaction with the act of recycling.
"What's exciting to me is the practice of exploring potential, hidden potential, because this material is constantly changing," says Robson. "There are sculptures I made four or five years ago that I'll never be able to make again because the people who are manufacturing the bottles have changed their designs."
Because of that, Robson's work is constantly evolving.
Anything written about Robson will tell you she is an artist who is committed to interrupting the waste stream, which makes her a natural fit to show at the conservatory. It is her first exhibition at a botanical garden and her largest exhibition to date.
"Her message is about sustainability, it's about fighting pollution, it's about protecting natural resources," says Ellen Grevey, audience services director at Franklin Park Conservatory.
A variety of Robson's sculptures will be on display at the conservatory Sept. 9 through April 2013.
"It's really important to me to do this piece in Columbus because most people think of this problem as only a shoreline issue," Robson says.
A significant amount of pollution comes from rivers, she says, and "all rivers lead to the ocean." This project therefore focuses on the less recognized sources of pollution.
But just for a minute, forget the well-crafted (and much needed) message of cleaning up the planet, lest it eclipse the art.
For now, just look at the work. It is transformative on so many levels.
Robson is not merely re-using plastic bottles. Embracing them like precious lost souls, she first cleans the bottles. She then contemplates their shapes and cuts them to achieve different structural forms.
It's challenging to cut smooth transitions and curves, but with a little practice, Robson and her helpers – in this case, students from the Columbus College of Art and Design – find confidence with the material. Robson likens the transition of the materials to social change itself because "that really occurs usually in almost gradual and perceptible little steps."
Then Robson finds ways to marry various shapes together to make repetitive forms that serve as the basis for the larger work. She and the students use onomatopoeia shorthand to keep the building blocks categorized; their dialogue is punctuated with words like sporbs, scrapples, bugles and ruffled rattails.
The atmosphere in the working room at Franklin Park Conservatory where Robson and the students created Quality of Mercy – made from 1,030 plastic bottles gleaned from the Glen Echo Ravine in Clintonville that currently hangs in the Himalayan Biome – is like walking into an adult kindergarten class where playful experimentation is both bountiful and sacred.
Though Robson is a multimedia artist – she has taught photography and welding and also enjoyed great success with her two-dimensional paper collages made entirely out of recycled junk mail – she is also a student.
"I try to study things that are inarguably positive," she says, "taking negative energy and redirecting it." Biology is one such area of study for her.
The shape of Quality of Mercy seems organic and familiar, and Robson says she was influenced by the structure of the brain in the making of the piece.
"To experience either needing mercy or giving mercy, you kind of have to make an intellectual decision," she says.
Wondering how mercy might look while pulsing through the neurons and synapses of the brain, she made sketches and patterns to use in crafting the whole sculpture. The pink color and the undulating movement suggest delicacy, while the form seems to be open and anticipating a powerful energy.
"To me, mercy comes from the sweetest part of a human being," Robson says.
Looking at her body of work, one is reminded of the body itself – maps of the nervous system and veins and arteries, the ebb and flow of the life forces within us. The shapes are lush, playful, universal, sensual and effervescent.
By using materials that could wreak environmental damage and transforming them into alluring forms that feel so very familiar to our own existence, Robson has connected us gracefully and tangibly to one another and to the world in which we live.
And that is where her message of interrupting the waste stream becomes so powerful and so different than what we have heard before. It is a message that has never been this inspiring or simply beautiful to experience.
"Polyethylene terephthalate is designed to last anywhere from 100 to 1,000 years," Robson says, guaranteeing a nearly inexhaustible supply of material for her work.
It makes one want to pick up plastic bottles to see what magic Robson can make with them.

UPDATED: Woodfibre LNG has a new customer
My Sea to Sky calls company's announcement 'smoke and mirrors'
Jun 26, 2019 3:31 PM By: Jennifer Thuncher
Woodfibre LNG rendering
Pacific Oil & Gas Limited, parent company of Woodfibre LNG Export, announced June 26 it has signed a binding sales and purchase agreement with BP Gas Marketing Limited, for the delivery of liquefied natural gas from its Woodfibre LNG export facility in Squamish.
"We are honoured to have BP as a foundation customer of our Woodfibre LNG project," said Ratnesh Bedi, PO&G president in a joint news release from Pacific Oil and Gas, and Woodfibre LNG. "We look forward to providing BP with a consistent supply of flexible Canadian
LNG that can displace more carbon-intensive fuels."
Under the terms of the agreement, BP will receive 0.75 million tonnes per year of liquified natural gas over 15 years on a free on board basis, with first delivery expected in 2023.
In this instance, free on board means the customer takes title of the LNG once it gets on the ship, according to Woodfibre LNG.
"Woodfibre LNG is a tremendous opportunity for British Columbia and Canada to get 'clean' natural gas to growing markets in Asia," said David Keane, president of Woodfibre LNG in
the release.
My Sea to Sky's spokesperson called Woodfibre's latest announcements "smoke and mirrors."
"Woodfibre LNG still doesn't have a real customer," said Tracey Saxby, executive director of the Squamish-based environmental organization.
BP Gas Marketing Limited is not an end user of LNG, and would have to find buyers to sell Woodfibre LNG's product, which is not guaranteed," she said, adding LNG prices in Asia are still too low to be profitable at $4.8 per million British thermal units (mmBtu),"
BP Canada Energy Group ULC and Woodfire's parent company also announced they are also working on an agreement for BP Canada to provide gas transportation and balancing services.
Balancing is part of managing a pipeline customer's account with the pipeline, according to Woodfibre LNG's spokesperson Rebecca Scott. In other words, when a customer's account is balanced, the volume of the commodity that is put into the pipeline by the customer is equal to the volume of commodity taken out of the pipeline by the customer.
This would ensure "a reliable delivery of gas to the Woodfibre LNG export facility over the 15-year term," according to the press release.
Scott said she couldn't tell The Chief what other customers Woodfibre LNG has binding agreements with due to confidentiality, but she did say the company's "LNG is pretty much fully subscribed."
My Sea to Sky also opposes Woodfibre LNG and other proponents using the phrase "clean natural gas," Saxby said.
"It's time that we start calling 'clean natural gas' what it really is: a fracking climate disaster. Woodfibre LNG will increase fracking in northeast B.C. and lock us into 25-40 years of extreme fossil fuel pollution," she said.
Scott said that independent studies show Woodfibre LNG will be the cleanest LNG export facility in the world.
