Fabulous Fictional Foxes
By UbuzzAdmin 4 years ago
Mysterious, clever and beautiful – there's something about the fox that has always captured our imaginations. Throughout history, the fox has appeared in all cultures. Japanese folklore gives us the magical shapeshifting kitsune, while Canadian legend describes the fox as either a cunning trickster or a wise elder.
Even the modern-day phrase 'sour grapes' can be attributed to the wonderful fox. One of Aesop's fables tells the story of a fox who could not reach some grapes on a vine and thus dismissed them as horrible anyway.
Here are some more examples of our love for the fox and how he has made such an impact on our popular culture and literature:
The Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi
In this book, the fox is seen as a conman who plots with a cat to kill Pinocchio and steal his money. The 1940 Disney film changed this negative depiction to have the fox attempting to convince Pinocchio to join the puppet show and go to Pleasure Island instead.
The Road to Oz by L. Frank Baum
In the 1909 book, Dorothy goes back to Oz via Foxville, a town of foxes with human characteristics led by King Dox. The king finds Dorothy's companion to be very smart indeed and so transforms his head into that of a fox.
Fox In Socks by Dr. Seuss
The 1965 Dr Seuss story is the fun, non-sensical rhyming genius that you'd expect from Dr Seuss. This Mr Fox is cunning but only in the way he tries to tie your tongue in knots!
The Fox and the Hound by Daniel P. Mannix
The author spent more than 12 months studying wild foxes before writing this 1967 novel. He also lived with a mated pair which were incredibly tame. The novel is a sad tale of hunting and the terrible impact of urbanisation on wild animals, however after Disney put their spin on it, it became a lovely tale of friendship through adversity. Immortalise the animals dear to you with a Bronze Wildlife Sculpture from www.gillparker.com
The Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl
Still much-loved today, Mr. Fox and his friends are one of Roald Dahl's greatest creations. Telling the tough tale of a fox dealing with farmers whilst trying to be a great dad and friend – we are given a more sympathetic view of the plight of a being a fox. The 2009 film was a huge hit.
Disney's Zootopia
This action-packed, fun film features the fox Nick Wilde and the rabbit Judy Hopp as the main characters. To begin with, you see a typical portrayal of a fox – a cunning trickster only out for his own gain. However, don't judge a book by its cover as Nick Wilde reveals a more likeable, sensitive side too!

The Choice, or the illusion of one? General Election 2015
July 30, 2014 August 23, 2014 by rev0107, posted in Newell News International
I was invited today to attend a Labour speech featuring the Shadow Chancellor, Ed Balls, who was there to discuss 'the choice' facing UK voters in next years general election, a Labour future versus the Tory threat.
Surrounded by banners reaffirming the Labour position of One Nation ahead of Scotland's bid for freedom and independence, the gallery of Labour supporters took their seats and awaited the Shadow Chancellor's arrival. His speech (which can be found in full here) focused heavily on debunking Tory claims on their recovery plan. In his speech he states: "Last Friday we learned that our economy has, at long last, got back to the size it was before the global financial crisis. The fact that Conservative strategists are desperate to persuade us all that this is a significant moment for celebration is revealing. Not only is it two years later than the Chancellor's original plan said, and three years after the US reached the same point, it's also the case that, as our population has grown, GDP per head won't recover to where it was for around another three years – in other words, a lost decade for living standards." Quite why or how any politician can be crowing about an economic recovery when we have; food banks, 1 in 4 now described as working poor, 1 million children in poverty, zero hour contracts, low pay or no pay workfare slave labour camps in Tesco and all in the sixth largest economy in the world? Balls made the startling claim that wealth trickles down. It doesn't, it bubbles up. This is reinforced later in the speech when he states: "And new analysis today from the House of Commons Library shows that under David Cameron working people will have seen the biggest fall in wages of any Parliament since 1874. It's set to be the first time since the 1920s that people are worse off at the end of the Parliament than they were at the beginning." This comes at a time not long after the UK received the largest orders of private jets anywhere in Europe. The recession has not been bad for everyone, for some it has been an opportunity to makes significant financial gains, not least those private firms circling around the NHS for a slice of the billion pound industry that is the sickness and health of the very people who built it in the first place.
The biggest thing to come out of today's talk was a commitment to abolish the bedroom tax during hastily finished question and answer (cut short on purpose for his obvious delay), though my particular question was reserved for closed doors and off the record. The Shadow Chancellor kindly reminded us at this point (as if we did not already know) that it was not the fault of teachers, doctors, nurses or police for the economic recession (like most politicians omitting the fire and rescue service), but due to the poor regulation of the banks. He didn't, however, go so far as to apologise for the Labour party bailing out the banks in 2008 whilst crying out 'too big to fail' and condemning the children he spoke of aiding in the future this morning, to a life time of austerity and cuts to pay for it, nor did he say that the problems the NHS are suffering are nothing to do with immigration. No, I guess that may have been too much to ask for but then we should always be mindful that whilst the largest transference of wealth from the poor to the rich took place on Labours watch with the banking bailouts, Ed Balls was busy the morning 1 million people marched against austerity in 2011, telling us all on the BBC that the cuts were too quick and too deep. He did not call for a position of no cuts. This rhetoric was backed up by Ed Milliband on the stage at Hyde Park when he repeated the same tired message. You couldn't make it up.
The problem with Labour is best summed up by John Pilger, who wrote after Thatcher's death that her greatest achievement was not in changing the philosophy of one party but of two, meaning that on Labours return in 1997, her political ideology was accepted as the way things had to be; PFI's, academies, NHS privatisation, Fire service privatisation – NPA 60 – cuts, ambulance service decimation, ATOS and a whole list of other stuff all started or took place on Labours watch last time around. What is their position now? More austerity, more cuts and likely more bailouts when this mini bubble bursts. Where is this choice and what is it exactly? How can anyone be expected to re-affiliate or support a party that left half the world burning on a 21st century crusade led by war criminal Tony Blair, a party that gave our NHS away to vultures in the private sector, a party that gave our children's future away to the banking cartels, a party that says: "Don't look at me, let's talk about immigration, the EU and anything else other than what we've done and will do!" Even though these things are as irrelevant to the issues society has as the public services he commended today (minus the fire and rescue service of course) This is not the Labour Party of the people, like the Conservatives, it is one that is mired by big business and corporations, it's biggest backer not the unions that formed it, but the media moguls and military interests that shape our world.
To say we have #TheChoice would actually be laughable if it wasn't so serious. We have greater choice of coffee than in our political spectrum. Firefighters in Spain and the UK say 'Rescue people, not banks.' Can or will the Labour party say the same come 2015?

Are we all living under a type of Stockholm Syndrome?
July 28, 2014 by rev0107, posted in Newell News International
This week the news was buzzing with headlines that the UK was back to the pre-recession levels of financial prosperity and that our recovery was outstripping the world. Yes really.
The BBC newspapers gushed as they talked over the newspapers for the day, even smirking as Murdoch chip paper The Sun claimed it was its army of readers that helped save the UK and that we had all suffered along the way to ensure economic recovery, working longer hours for less pay in the process. When I look around however, I do not see a recovery, I see people struggling between pay checks, increased levels of homeless people, food banks and shutters down on a previously busy high street.
Do we really believe this to be true? If so, we must all be suffering some form of Stockholm Syndrome.
The term Stockholm Syndrome is most associated with Patty Hearst, a Californian newspaper heiress kidnapped by revolutionary militants in 1974. She appeared to develop sympathy with her captors and joined them in a robbery. She was eventually caught and received a prison sentence. Today it may well be used to describe the pacification with which the public seem to be accepting the austerity measures which have left 1 in 5 people in the UK being described as below the official poverty line and experiencing life as a daily struggle. We supposedly have the sixth largest economy and yet people in the UK are going to bed hungry, unable to break the cycle, now labelled the 'working poor'. Now somehow in these times of Orwellian double think we have been patted on the back and congratulated for turning the country around and are expected to be grateful. How is it that we have become so conditioned that we adore our oppressors, so much so we are prepared to sit back and vote all over again for it in 2015?
The only people who have seen their fortunes changed for the better are the economic terrorists that created this recession in the first place, the bankers and their corrupt friends in politics.
Whilst we have lost swathes of public services to privatisation, had pay cuts & freezes, experienced pension robbery, lost homes, taken on zero hour contract work and rely on food banks – privates jets sales have increased… You couldn't make it up! So next time the media thanks you for working longer hours for less pay, sacrificing your pensions, suffering pay freezes, inflation, gas price hikes etc – remember that the people who caused it are having a fracking jolly. Wealth bubbles up, it doesn't trickle down.
We mostly seem to accept austerity as a necessity, with few really challenging it in any way. 50,000 people marched through London on June 21st to stand up against austerity but after the event there were more than double that using credit cards on Oxford Street, artificially stimulating the economy, moving from one shopping experience to the next. So long as we continue to shop and pay our taxes it must be assumed that they are happy for a minority to march. We need to cultivate and nurture a lifestyle of civil disobedience and resistance to the ongoing ideological austerity we are being torn apart with and break free from this Stockholm Syndrome. We have everything to gain and nothing to lose.

Of course I have high blood pressure, there's people like Tony Blair walking free in the world!
Common questions such as 'don't you have high blood pressure' usually make me laugh but this mornings well-earned lay-in has been interrupted after deciding to look into what the Middle East Peace envoy and war criminal Tony Blair has been up to as the death toll in Palestine passes 1,000.
SKY BREAKING NEWS…
Blair's wife, Cherie, celebrated her 60th birthday this week and so he hosted a £50k birthday party for her with special guests such as Bobby Davro providing the entertainment. Whilst I am still fresh off the back of my Richard Feynman rant earlier this week I do not know if I particularly begrudge ben this war criminal spending a birthday with his wife, especially one as significant as 60 (it may be his last before he ends up in the Hague?) but I do question why this megalomaniac is busy making speeches in London about progress and leadership, 20 years on from taking the New Labour hot seat whilst Gaza burns and children die? He was allegedly crowned Middle East Peace envoy due to his exemplification of peace during his tenure as UK Prime Minister which is lamentable considering his religious doctrine is responsible for the destabilisation of the world that we are seeing today, his modern-day crusade with George W. Bush.
Many would call in to question his validity of such a position, some have called for his sacking after finding his work in the are negligible to date. We should also remind ourselves that this peace envoy is the same man crying out for intervention recently in Syria and who continues to state that the massacre that is unfolding in Gaza is justified as Israel has the right to defend itself. A closer look at Blair's relationships makes for sickening reading. He has long been a support of people that we now call despots, such as Gaddafi and Assad but evidently at those times they were bastards but they were 'our' bastards so that was okay.
It also appears that Blair, during his time as peace envoy, has been instrumental in brokering deals in Palestine for large corporations. According to Channel 4's Despatches, Blair helped persuade the Israeli government to open up radio frequencies so that cell phone company Wataniya Mobile could operate in the West Bank, as well as a large development for a gas field off the coast of Gaza which is run by the British Gas Group. Both these contracts are for British Gas Group and Wataniya Mobile are major clients of Blair's financiers, JP Morgan. It just goes to show that their saying is right, the right relationship is everything, you couldn't make it up!
Tony Blair's only interest in the Middle East is what he can squeeze out of it financially for both himself and his pay masters, that's all his crusades have ever been about. In the meantime children continue to pay the ultimate price as the Israeli Defence Force bombs rain down on the open air prison that is Gaza and the West sits by idly watching.

The body camera is a tool I use in my work, usually in remote locations without the possibility of onlookers, questions, confrontation, conversation. Wearing the camera in the context of my normal routine in my neighborhood, at my deli, in my coffee shop, riding the subway, grocery shopping makes me nervous- vibrate with excitement and fear. Reading while on the subway quickly became a kind of escape from staring eyes- it has become an element of the project. Reading while filming helps to maintain a centered focus and a way to provide context to what might be another mundane video feed.
In today's video you'll see a young woman visibly affected. Her subtle reactions are incredible- she is having her own internal battle trying to be at ease with a lense half-hazardly pointed at her for what feels like forever.

Minor League Baseball: Former Catawba closer Blanton enjoying the pinstripes
Published 12:00 am Monday, August 6, 2018
By Mike London
JON C. LAKEY / SALISBURY POST file photo Catawba's Bryan Blanton closes out the game against Lincoln Memorial at Newman Park on March 19, 2016.
mike.london@salisburypost.com
PULASKI, Va. — Catawba's baseball team was still good in 2018, still won another South Atlantic Conference crown, but coach Jim Gantt can't help but wonder how strong the Indians would've been if catcher Zac Almond and closer Bryan Blanton hadn't been drafted after their junior seasons.
Catawba doesn't often lose juniors to the draft, but Almond, who combines a brawny bat with a powerful arm, and Blanton, who is fearless and throws in the 90s, were special Division II players.
Signed by the Arizona Diamondbacks after the 2017 draft, Almond is crushing the Pioneer League this summer. He's tied for the league lead in homers (9), tied for fourth in RBIs (37) and seventh in batting average (.336).
Meanwhile, Blanton, a New York Yankees farmhand, is wearing pinstripes in Pulaski, Va., an advanced rookie league. He's learning every day as he makes the transition from college fireballer to crafty pro.
Blanton, who came to Catawba after a stellar, three-sport career at Albemarle High, was picked in the 21st round in 2017 and signed quickly. The Yankees offered $50,000.
"Sure, I would love to have played my senior year at Catawba, would have loved playing with all the guys another year," Blanton said. "But I got a little money signing as a junior, and I wouldn't have gotten anything like that if I'd waited until my senior year. I've been able to start paying back student loans and I'm a lot further along now, with this being in my second pro season, instead of my first. Signing was the best decision for me."
Blanton was automatic as the closer whenever Gantt made calls to the bullpen. In his three Catawba seasons, Blanton was 6-3 with 25 saves. He struck out 116 batters in 84 innings. There wasn't a lot of mystery to Blanton. He wanted the ball with the game on the line, and he came in firing bullets. He had a quality breaking pitch, but he could just blow most D-II hitters away with velocity.
After he signed and reported to a Yankees' rookie team in the Gulf Coast League last summer, Blanton shocked everyone by being even more successful than he'd been in college. He was lights-out from the start. In 16 relief appearances, he posted five saves and allowed just one earned run. The really startling stat was that he struck out 19 batters in 16 innings, while walking zero.
"I'd kind of struggled a little bit late in my career at Catawba, but as soon as I got to Florida and threw my first bullpen, everything clicked, and I didn't miss a spot," Blanton said. "I made up my mind that I wasn't going to walk anyone. If a count went to 3-and-1, I threw the ball down the middle and took my chances. And it was pretty easy not to walk people in that league. The hitters were aggressive, young kids. If they saw a fastball on those first two pitches, they were swinging."
Blanton, a 6-foot, 190-pound right-hander, was promoted to Pulaski late in the 2017 season.
Back in early April, he'd hoped to open the 2018 season with the Class A Charleston RiverDogs in the full-season South Atlantic League, but the Yankees weren't convinced he was ready to make that jump. He was retained in extended Spring Training until the short-season Appalachian League got started in June. That's when he reported back to Pulaski.
"I was in good shape when I went to Spring Training this year, but I really wasn't game-ready," Blanton said. " My pitches weren't quite sharp enough, but I'll learn from it. Next year, I'll be game-ready when I report."
The months in extended Spring Training were boring. There were lots of workouts, intrasquad games and practices, but there were no crowds and no one was keeping score.
"The biggest thing I did in those months in extended Spring Training was work on my slider," Blanton said. "I was throwing a slider that was 80-81 mph and a curve that was 77-79, and over time, they had morphed into being very similar pitches. Now my slider is 84-to-86 mph. So there's more difference with the curve. That's worked well for me."
Blanton, 22, also throws a changeup. He works on it every time he throws a bullpen, but it's still his fourth-best pitch. He doesn't use it a lot. Not yet.
There are advantages and disadvantages to being part of the Yankees farm system.
The Yankees are a win-at-all-costs organization that will trade prospects, even potential stars, for veterans who can help them win now at the major league level. So a player such as Blanton, as much as he'd love to pitch in Yankee Stadium some day, realizes there's a better than 50-50 chance that he'll be swapped to another organization at some point. It's more likely that his opportunity is going to come with someone other than the Yankees.
"They make that clear to us from the start," Blanton said. "They tell us every time we get to pitch, we aren't just pitching for the Yankees, we're auditioning for the other 29 clubs. Every time we pitch, it's a chance to show other clubs what we can do."
The Yankees are exceptional at identifying talent in the draft and developing that talent.
"Every pitching coach I've worked with really knows what he's doing," Blanton said. "The Yankees do a great job with the draft, and there's just unbelievable talent stockpiled in this organization. There are two guys on my team (including mega-prospect Luis Medina, a 19-year-old from the Dominican Republic) who can throw 100. There are a bunch of other guys throwing mid-90s."
Most of Pulaski's pitchers, catches and coaches are Latins, so the semesters of Spanish that Blanton took at Albemarle High and Catawba come in handy. Communication isn't an obstacle.
There are 17 pitchers on the packed Pulaski roster, but Blanton has been able to carve out a role in the bullpen because he can get loose faster than anyone else.
"When one of our pitchers gets in trouble in a hurry, I'm the guy they usually call on," Blanton said. "I can throw two pitches in the bullpen, and I'm warmed up, so that's been my role."
He's experienced his ups and downs this season. These are pros, not college players, and mistakes — thigh-high or waist-high pitches or pitches that get too much of the plate — are hit hard.
"At this level, those mistakes aren't turned into homers like they would be in the majors," Blanton said. "But they are base hits."
Blanton's strongest stats have been his strikeout and control numbers. He's fanned 15 in 14 innings, while walking three.
Blanton's record is 0-3 this summer, but that's because he's been on the wrong side of a new rule that's being employed in all the minor leagues this season. If a game goes to extra innings, that next inning starts with a runner already standing at second base. Officially, it's scored as if the runner reached second base via an error. That means the pitcher isn't charged with an earned run, but that pitcher can still be tagged quickly with a loss if he gives up a single — or maybe a groundout and a sacrifice fly. Blanton was in a hole, with an 0-2 record, after he'd thrown just 23 pitches this summer.
Despite the ill luck in extra innings, Blanton is confident he's making progress.
"I know I'm a better pitcher than I was last year," Blanton said. "My composure is better, and I'm better at executing all of my pitches. At Catawba, I was coming in and throwing as hard as I could. Now I'm mixing it up more, working both sides of the plate, changing pitch sequences."
In other words, he's making that evolution from thrower to pitcher.
Blanton is enjoying the environment in which he's working. He plays home games in a very old ballpark. Calfee Park was built in 1935, but it was renovated and upgraded in 2015.
Pulaski is a small town in the mountains, pleasantly cool for this time of year and mostly dry. The Pulaski Yankees haven't been rained out a single time all summer.
The team plays virtually every day (only four scheduled off days), but the road journeys are short and scenic. The longest trip has been three hours.
The best thing about being in Pulaski is Blanton is just two hours away from Catawba and two-and-a half hours from home. When he gets an off day, he comes back.
"I'm enjoying pro baseball, with no regrets," Blanton said. "Every year is critical as far as my development, and I'm glad I signed when I did."

Would this city be good for a single, conservative, 21 year old?
View Poll Results: Would this city be good?
As a fairly conservative 22 year old male, I'd say you would definitely find some people sharing your views. It may be a little harder east of downtown(which is where a good deal of the younger people hang out; bardstown rd/highlands area, frankfort ave/clifton) but there are a lot of open-minded people, conservative or liberal.
Bardstown Road and some of Clifton is somewhat bohemian, with a lot of liberals, but it's varied. To make a simple generalization, I do tend to see a lot more Obama bumper stickers than Mccain, but travel a little further east (well within Louisville) and that changes quite a bit.
its pretty easy to pick your crowd here, coming from a 21/f born and raised here. once you got your place settled friends are easy to come by.
It's really all in what you make of it, anyplace that you live can be Great! Your happiness cannot depend on someone else. You have to find that inside of you.
In any case; Louisville is a friendly place you should fit in fine.


What does the restaurant industry have in common with global health organizations like PSI?
The answer is that both are using franchises. In the commercial sector, franchising refers to purchasing the rights to use a trademark in order to produce a good or service with certain specifications. In short, you can't open a curb-side shop and call it a Subway. You must first buy into the Subway franchise and become a franchisee.
In global health, franchising is applied in a similar way: an organization or the government (the franchisor) recruits private clinics to participate in their network. The clinic (the franchisee) agrees to provide specific services and deliver healthcare at prescribed high-quality standards. The franchisor then works to support franchisees in a variety of ways, such as providing training, linking to commodities, and raising awareness in the community for the services offered.
Social franchising addresses a critical issue in family planning (FP): while private providers are a main source of FP services, governments are often unable to regulate the quality of care in the private sector. Clinics also struggle to cover the cost of providing a broad range of contraceptive options.
Social franchising is considered a high impact practice (HIP) in family planning because evidence shows that it increases quality of care, number of clients, and usage of long-acting reversible contraceptives.
What are key ways to ensure high impact? After our experience with social franchising in countries like Myanmar and Uganda, PSI is learning every day how to make it even more effective.
Choose Wisely: One of the most important elements of social franchising is choosing the right clinics in the right locations. Franchisees should be/ in places that serve high-need populations and be ready and eager to expand their services.
Finance Carefully: Sufficient financing is necessary to ensuring sustainability in franchising. If donor financing is reduced, the franchise shouldn't fall apart. This involves encouraging private-public partnerships and linking private clinics with domestic health financing.
Quality Matters: Patients come to franchised clinics knowing they can expect high-quality care due to strict standards. Just as restaurants must ensure that the food they serves meet quality standards at all locations, social franchisors must ensure that franchisee clinics are held to the same high standards of care wherever they are. For example, PSI Myanmar's rigorous quality monitoring system revealed that one franchisee was treating patients poorly, and the provider was immediately dismissed from the network. This illustrates the effectiveness of performance-based incentives in some social franchises.
Be Flexible: Social franchising can be adapted and implemented in a variety of ways to work effectively in different countries. In Ethiopia, a tiered structure allows franchisees to progress and eventually "graduate" out of the system; while in Myanmar, social franchising is coupled with interventions to increase demand, including providing patients with health cards entitling them to significantly reduced costs for services at clinics.
Think Broadly: Consider a broad range of primary care services for social franchising, including but not limited to family planning services. A broader range of services will facilitate the linking of franchisees with domestic financing, which is crucial for sustainability.
