La rue Nguyễn Huệ  (en ) est une rue du  de Hô Chi Minh-Ville au Viêt Nam.

Présentation

La rue va de l'hôtel de ville de Hô Chi Minh-Ville à la rive de la rivière de Saïgon. Elle est parallèle de sa voisine la rue Rue Đồng Khởi.

Jusqu'à la fin du  , cette rue était le principal marché aux fleurs printanier des habitants de la ville pour la fête du Têt.
Cette rue était alors connue sous le nom de Marché des fleurs Nguyen Hue.
Après les vacances du Têt de l'année 2004 , la rue du marché des fleurs Nguyen Hue s'est transformée.
Les scènes d'achat, de vente, de marchandage ont disparu, la rue des fleurs est soigneusement fleurie pour le plaisir des touristes du printemps.
Et à partir de cette année, à l'occasion du Têt, la rue Nguyen Hue porte le nom de rue des fleurs Nguyen Hue.

Histoire

La rue était à l'origine un canal qui amenait l'eau de la rivière de Saïgon à la citadelle de Saïgon construite en 1790.
Au début, le canal s'appelait Kinh Lon (ce qui signifie "grand canal") car c'était un canal important pour que les bateaux puissent aller directement en ville.

En raison de la circulation intense des marchandises, Kinh Lon s'est progressivement pollué, obligeant les colons français à combler ce canal, et en 1887, avec ses chemins de halage il deviendra un grand boulevard nommé boulevard Charner.
Cependant, les Saïgonais de cette époque l'appelaient souvent du nom populaire de rue Kinh Lap (ce qui signifie « le canal rempli de terre »).
En 1956, le gouvernement de la république du Viêt Nam a rebaptisé cette voie en boulevard Nguyen Hue qui reste son nom jusqu'à nos jours.

Congo Square and Jazz Heritage
Mar 24, 2016 | History
Jazz and Heritage Festival is less than a month away and has gotten bigger than ever. This event now attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors to New Orleans but had its humble beginnings in Congo Square, right outside of the French Quarter in what is now Louis Armstrong Park. Congo Square was originally the gathering space for New Orleans' slaves on Sundays. Slave owners in Louisiana, being from French and Spanish decent had a more laid back attitude towards slavery than their protestant British counterparts in the colonies. In New Orleans, slave owners followed the Code Noir, a set of rules and regulations, which explicitly stated that slaves would have Sundays off. This time was used socializing, singing, dancing, and of course making music! Congo Square continued to be a designated congregation area for song and dance, and in 1970 the first Jazz and Heritage Festival was held in that very spot! Many people are convinced that this old stomping ground is actually the original birthplace of jazz.

"Brother" Eli Johnson
June 17, 2009 by Keller
This is my second installment where I tackle the accusation that Joseph Smith was a rake (Ken Jennings wouldn't say so either.) before he ever received a revelation about plural marriage. I am partial to Dan Bachman's theory that section 132 was received in stages as he lays out in "The Ohio Origins of the Revelation on Eternal Marriage" in a JMH 1978 article. Critics have likewise turned to the Ohio period to frame Joseph Smith as a sexual predator before the revelation was made public. Clark Braden, in his 1884 debate with an RLDS apostle pursued this agenda. He claimed that the [March 24,1832] tar and feathering was brought about by Eli Johnson's brotherly outrage of Joseph Smith's impropriety against Eli's sister, Marinda Nancy Johnson. I am going to present some new information about Eli Johnson, but if I don't make much sense please see the following links for background information: 1 2 3 .
Clark Braden's account is hopelessly garbled, but that doesn't deter many critics from Fawn Brodie to Grant Palmer from using him as a source to tar Joseph Smith's character. Braden's family lived in the right area at the time of the incident, but Clark himself was just an infant. As will be seen, it is likely that his informant was not Eli Johnson. Furthermore, as Dale Broadhurst, one who sympathizes with Braden's promotion of the Spalding theory, observed from his numerous published errors that "Clark Braden was prone to exaggeration and 'loose' quotations of others assertions, comments, etc. The allegations and proofs offered in his speeches should be read with that fact in mind."
The moderator at the Braden-Kelley debate was Arthur Deming, the son of a Jack Mormon sheriff. Minor Deming had made many enemies for the protection he gave the Saints after Joseph Smith's martyrdom and died shortly after. Young Arthur became bitter against the Mormons, essentially blaming them for having to serve an apprenticeship (as orphaned or fatherless teens were often made to do) to learn a trade that turned out to be useless for him. Arthur Deming also prefaces his collection of anti-Mormon affidavits as being a consequence of the debate. "Mr. Braden, the opponent of Mormonism, was unable to satisfactorily prove some points he claimed, and he engaged a party to collect evidence to sustain his position. The party did not accomplish much and I undertook the business."
So a year later Deming followed up on the tar and feathering account with Newell K. Whitney's hostile brother who had never embraced Mormonism and who had remained in the Kirtland area. Deming received a very different story from the Rev. Whitney, one that presents a more plausible motivation.
He stated that one of the party who tarred and feathered Sydney Rigdon and Jo Smith at John Johnson's, in Hiram, O., informed him that Rigdon said to their assailants he presumed they were gentlemen, but Jo Smith fought until overpowered. A doctor present offered to castrate Jo and said he would warrant him to live. It was not done. Several of Johnson's sons were of the party. They were angry because their father was urged by Jo and Rigdon to let them have his property. He finally did give them some of it, and moved to Kirtland and kept tavern, and his son Luke became one of the first Mormon Twelve Apostles.
By any historical methodology for weighing sources, Deming's account trumps Braden's. While both are extremely late. the latter is of unknown provenance and hence even less reliable. The former is third hand ( Johnson brother -> unidentified mobber ->S. F. Whitney -> Deming) unless the unnamed mob snitch was John Johnson Jr. The falsifiable errors Deming makes are less severe. Contra Braden, Marinda had no brother named Eli. Working against Deming, is that at most only one of Johnson's son's (not several as claimed) could have been in the mob. However it will take some argumentation to establish that fact. Let's look at each of the relevant members of the immediate Johnson family to see where their sympathies were at.
Marinda Nancy Johnson
While she (much) later became a plural wife of Joseph Smith, she wrote unsolicited in her diary that Joseph never behaved improperly towards her. "Here I feel like bearing my testimony that during the whole year that Joseph was an inmate of my father's house I never saw aught in his daily life or conversation to make me doubt his divine mission."
John Johnson Sr.
John Sr. came to Joseph's rescue when he heard the commotion, but got clocked when mistaken as a mobber by a fellow rescuer. David Whitmer miraculously healed his broken bone. Later John Sr. faithfully served on the high council, which is inconsistent if he suspected Joseph behaved in an untoward manner with his daughter.
Elsa Johnson
Earlier Joseph had healed her arm, an act that ironically helped convert one of the mob's leaders Ezra Booth for the time being. She helped clean the tar off of Joseph Smith and hence can not have been sympathetic to the mob's aims.
Lyman Johnson
Whitney failed to note that Lyman was also called to be an apostle, in addition to Luke. This is in itself makes it highly unlikely that either Lyman or Luke harbored any ill feelings towards Joseph Smith. Lyman also has an alibi, he was on an eastern mission for much of 1832. According to the Saints without Halos website's chronology, he was with Orson Pratt continuously from Feb. 3 to Nov. 8. More importantly a source that trumps either Braden or Deming by being earlier and only second hand and having no (as yet) falsified information likely stems from this mission, but I have yet to see any Braden apologist adequately deal with it. From Orson Pratt we have:
At a meeting held in Piano, Illinois, Sept. 12,1878, Apostle Orson Pratt explained the circumstances connected with the coming forth of the revelation on plural marriage. He refuted the statement and belief of those present that Brigham Young was the author of that revelation [Section 132 in the Utah Doctrine and Covenants]; showed that Joseph Smith, the Prophet, had not only commenced the practice of that principle himself, and further taught it to others, before President Young and the Twelve had returned from their missions in Europe, in 1841, but that Joseph actually received revelation upon that principle as early as 1831. He said, "Lyman Johnson, who was very familiar with Joseph at this early date, Joseph living at his father's house [near Hiram, Ohio, beginning in September 1831], and [Lyman] who was also very intimate with me [Orson], we having traveled on several missions together, told me himself that Joseph had made known to him as early as 1831, that plural marriage was a correct principle. Joseph declared to Lyman that God had revealed it to him, but that the time had not come to teach or practice it in the Church, but that the time would come." To this statement Elder Pratt bore his testimony. (Historical Record 6:230 cited disapprovingly in Price)
If Orson Pratt's recollection is correct, than it isn't possible to claim that Joseph was accused of being a womanizer (specifically in the cases of Fanny Alger and Marinda Johnson. Eliza Winters is another story, but it also falls flat.) before he received a revelation on plural marriage. Like Braden and Deming, Pratt can be dismissed as being late and agenda driven. But why should we reject Pratt, but accept the weaker Braden source? I hope that the historians who take the minority, contrarian view, championed by Signature will one day coherently address that question.
Luke was called on a mission at the same time as his brother in section 75. His first companion, William McClellin, fizzled out after a short while so he returned and was reassigned with Seymour Brunson. Luke was also gone during the tarring according to Saints without Halos' chronology. Luke 's 1858 account is thus second hand, but over 25 years earlier than Deming and Braden. It is clear that his loyalties lie with Joseph Smith and his parents and not the mob in his account. He makes an error in dating it to Fall of 1831, but offers information not found in Joseph Smith's history. Noticeably telling is the absence of any mention of his brothers being involved or a motive behind the attack. However, I don't want to make too much of an argument from silence.
Olmsted Johnson
Olmstead also does not seem to be a mob participant. In Joseph Smith's history he was just visiting the Johnson farm. Olmstead failed to convert to Mormonism and soon went traveling. "He went to the southern states and Mexico, and on his return, he took sick, and died in Virginia." Although, the history is vague about the timing of the visit, Olmsted is out of the narrative before the tarring incident is covered.
John Johnson Jr.
There is really only two reasons I am aware of that may point to John Jr. being a member of the mob. The first is that he is included in a list of apostates that has other known members of the mob. That list is sandwiched in between Olmsted's visit and the tarring incident. The second is that Deming's theory of motive regarding property becomes tenuous if at least one son wasn't worried about his inheritance. Other apostates would not feel as threatened that a plot was afoot to deprive them of their property. As I allude to earlier, the property motive is much more plausible for the mob's extra-legal maneuvers than accusations of sexual misconduct. Attempts to harmonize the two extremely post-hoc justifications run the risk of Occam's wrath. However, I believe an even more plausible explanation, if one had to just pick one, is religious bigotry. To do this, I will now look at some Johnsons who were uncles rather than brothers of Marinda.
Uncle Edward Johnson
An Edward Johnson also appears on list of apostates, but beyond that, there may be no reason to connect him to the mob's activities. Looking at John Johnson Sr.'s genealogy, he had a brother named Edward who moved to Portage Co., Ohio around 1831 and he may be the apostatizing Edward. John Sr. had moved there (in Hiram) around 1820, but the rest his brothers and sisters appear to have maintained residency in New Hampshire.
Uncle Eli Johnson
It is clear that there was an Eli Johnson at the tarring who was in charge of the tar bucket. It may be that a second uncle, Eli, tagged along with Edward on his move to Ohio for awhile. He was also known for his religious persecution of those differing from his Calvinist/Presbyterianism worldview. He hated Universalists with their idea of no Hell, so it is real possibility that Joseph and Sidney's vision of the Degrees of Glory set him off. So he does fit a mobber profile, if this is our man.
Eli was partially blind, fond of drink, disgruntled, the village tale-bearer, and lived in outhouses (apparently not a big property owner). He is known to have lived his last 50 years in Battleboro, NH (1809-1859), posing further difficulty for him being in Ohio for long and being Clark Braden's source. He would have been around 50 when Joseph was tarred and feathered and not easily mistaken for Marinda's brother.
Let us just say if this Eli Johnson is your star witness, your Joseph Smith history has major credibility problems. If this isn't your Eli, than Eli is not a relative and it is even less likely that he would be aware of a sexual impropriety that apparently didn't bother the Johnson family and was denied by Marinda herself.

I enjoy being a primary care provider, as it allows me the opportunity to build relationships with my patients.
I enjoy being a pediatrician. I find that playing a positive role in a child's life is a privilege. I also enjoy being a primary care provider, as it allows me the opportunity to build relationships with my patients, help them in their times of need, and assist them in maintaining their good health. I started at Durham Pediatrics in 2007. I believe the team approach I have experienced here provides an excellent model for patient care. I have also valued the camaraderie I have experienced with my colleagues at Durham Pediatrics. On a more personal level, my interest in pediatrics first became evident when I observed how my brother's pediatrician helped him when he was diagnosed with hearing impairment. I enjoy being a father of both a son and a daughter, and our family enjoys movies, music, and sports.

Insights into IFRS 16: Lease incentives
Louise Kelly 29 Oct 2020
Granting lease incentives is a common way to encourage a new lessee to sign up to a new lease contract and fill vacant premises. Lease incentives may take various forms depending on the negotiation between the lessee and the lessor.
When accounting for lease incentives in accordance with IFRS 16 'Leases' from a lessee perspective, questions may arise in how to identify a lease incentive and when the accounting treatment changes depending on how the lease incentive is granted. This publication aims to resolve these lessee accounting questions.
IFRS 16 defines lease incentives as:
Payments made by a lessor to a lessee associated with a lease, or the reimbursement or assumption by a lessor of costs of a lessee.
The Standard and the Basis for Conclusions do not elaborate on this definition. In addition, IFRS 16 does not provide guidance on the various types of arrangements between the lessor and the lessee that may satisfy this definition.
In our view, even though not clearly stated, we believe the definition could suggest that an analysis similar to the IFRS 15 'Revenue from Contracts with Customers' guidance relating to the consideration payable to customers could be applied.
Accordingly, any payments made to or on behalf of a lessee within the context of the lease contract should be considered as an integral part of the net consideration of the lease and therefore be accounted for as an incentive. This is to the extent they are not made for:
the transfer of distinct goods and services or any other asset from the lessee; or
the costs incurred by the lessee on lessor's behalf.
In addition, we believe the former interpretation SIC 15 'Operating Leases—Incentives', which dealt with such type of transactions under IAS 17, is helpful in delimiting the scope.
SIC 15 stated all incentives provided in consideration of the agreement for a new or renewed lease had to be recognised as an integral part of the net consideration agreed for the use of the leased asset, irrespective of the incentive's nature or form or the timing of payments. We think this is still true under IFRS 16 and therefore similar accounting considerations with respect to the definition and scope would apply.

Q: I have been divorced for over a year now, and share joint custody of my four teenagers. Aside from losing almost everything in the divorce because I could not afford a lawyer, I am having trouble with disrespectful kids.
My ex gets angry when things don't go his way. My children are beginning to treat me the same way. They get mad at me if I can't do what they want. It usually has to do with money. They never ask their dad for things they need or want, so they ask me, when I say I can't afford it they get mad and make me feel like I'm a bad mom.
Yet they tend to feel sorry for their dad, even though he has just about everything and makes double the amount of money that I do. I do try and give my kids everything I can even though I am having financial problems.
Am I doing something wrong? I need help dealing with this. Any suggestions?
A: There are a lot of layers to be addressed in this question, and I don't think my quick reply here will do it justice. But I'll tackle some of the issues, and hopefully that will help. Please let me know if you'd like to schedule a consultation. I will work with you on a sliding scale if necessary.
Okay, let's dive in. First and foremost, you'll need a lot of support to help you cope with this situation. I hope you have some friends or family members who can be good listeners, so you can unload some of the stress that you are feeling by talking about it. Joint custody alone can be a big challenge. Throw in money trouble, and the stress goes off the charts. They don't need to solve the problems for you -- just listening to you as you vent will help you lighten your load.
Kids don't need everything. They do need your love, attention, time, and energy, as well as food, shelter, and education, of course. But if you can't afford the latest video game or designer jeans, they are old enough to earn some money and acquire these things themselves. So please don't feel that part of being a good mom is working your fingers to the bone to give your kids everything they ask for! It's okay to say no as often as you need to.
I'd leave their dad out of this equation. If they ask for something that you cannot afford, just say, "I'm sorry, honey, that's not in the budget. Let me know if you want my help brainstorming a way to earn the money so you can buy it for yourself." They may get upset, but that's okay. You don't need to justify anything to them. All you need to do is let them know what you will and will not purchase for them. The rest is up to them.
When you are venting to your good listener, be sure talk about your fears that the kids are becoming like their father. Talk about how their reactions remind you of him, and how uncomfortable that is for you. Talk about how hard you are working, and how tired you are, and how great it would feel to have some appreciation for all that you do.
Keeping all that stuff inside is what makes you vulnerable to thinking you are not a good mom. Your kids don't need to hear it, but you do need to release those feelings. Let some of that out, and you will remember that you are doing your best in a hard situation. And when you remember that, you will feel solid again, which puts you in a much better position to help your kids find an alternative way to get what they want.


The monoamines are slower-acting and more localized in distribution than the amino acids, and are known to be released from non-synaptic sites. Monoamines are synthesized from a single amino acid (hence mono-amine). There are two broad groups of monoamines: catecholamines and indolamines. Among the catecholamines are dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine, all synthesized from tyrosine, which is then converted to L-dopa and dopamine. Among the indolamines are serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, or 5-HT) and melatonin.

If you are an entrepreneur or a small business owner it may be necessary to meet with clients on a regular basis. However, if you run a home-based business you may not want to hold your meeting in your living room or dining room. This is especially try if you are a stay-at-home-parent who manages a business in-between home schooling your children. This is where Starbucks comes to the rescue.

What I and millions of others have learned is to simply map out a list of Starbucks coffee houses and hold our meetings there.
Starbucks coffeehouses can be the quintessential meeting spot for hipsters, suits, blue collar workers, college kids and business people. Most Starbucks locations come with ample seating for two, handicapped seating and room for parties of four or more to gather. While tables and chairs are furniture staples you'll find plush sofas and armchairs in some coffee houses, too. If you arrive at a convenient time you can bring your Macbook, Netbook or iPad, find an empty wall-jack and work until your heart is content.
The din in most Starbucks is tolerable. Most people tend to keep their conversations within their group and respect others' need for quiet. This usually makes it easy to speak with and listen to whomever you are meeting. Of course, every now and then you'll encounter a loud-talking cell phone user. If this happens for a prolonged time it's best to just find another seat.
As a director I've held auditions in Starbucks several times. The first time I met with a voiceover actor at a Starbucks in the marina. It was summertime and I sat outside. He road his motorcycle right up to the entrance, parked, and we chatted for three hours. Even with commuter traffic nearby we were still able hear each other well. When rush hour traffic died down it was even more quiet. The second time I met with a blonde actress whom I later hired for a role in my film Broken Hearts Club. We sat together and read lines from a break-up scene. It felt awkward at first because a nearby patron actually thought we were breaking up!
Another plus to holding your meeting at Starbucks is that they are everywhere. You can pick a spot convenient to both you and the person you're meeting just by visiting the Find A Location link on the Starbucks website.
Starbucks may be famous for coffee but they have a full menu of other complements. Every store has juice, bottled water, sandwiches, and salad. If you have a sweet tooth you'll find lots of bakery goods. Starbucks even has hot breakfast sandwiches.
Two other very important details for a successful meeting are: 1) a bathroom and 2) WiFi. Without these two items your meeting might crash and burn. It's a necessity to have a bathroom nearby if you're going to be drinking coffee all day. Most bathrooms are clean and tidy.
When I made my movie in 2007 I arrange time to spent four hours with my actors. We met in the lobby restaurant of a hotel. I picked a spot local to all my actors because I live in a more suburban area. While there I ordered coffee, appetizers, and a cocktail. Over the course of four hours many people stopped by and we talked over a cocktail or coffee. It cost $100 plus a 15% tip.
I learned an important thing about Starbucks when I was in New York. Space comes at a premium, and in New York City (Manhattan) many Starbucks coffeehouses do not have much room for seating. I discovered this when I planned two meetings with filmmakers in the city, arrived at Starbucks and there was no place to sit. If you're not sure about seating simple call ahead and find out for sure.
I've created a checklist of things you should do before you decide to hold a meeting at Starbucks. Following these suggestions should help make your transition from home office to Starbucks office an easy one!
Follow Starbucks on Facebook and Twitter to get notified of special events, free drink giveaways and promotions.
Use Find a Store on Starbucks.com to select the most convenient Starbucks location.
Call the store to make sure it has ample seating.
Recharge your cell phone and computer (laptop, Kindle or iPad) the night before.
Plan to arrive 15-20 minutes early so you can order coffee, get the best seat in the house and immediately connect to Wifi.
Pick a table near an electrical wall outlet.
To save money, order tea or brewed coffee (I prefer Komodo Dragon or Sumatra) instead of the fancy espresso drinks.
Bring your Starbucks card or make sure it's reloaded before you arrive.
Remember, you're in a coffeehouse. Have fun. Drink coffee!

The Wallflower Wager by Tessa Dare
On August 29, 2019 By DebbieIn Historical Romance, RegencyLeave a comment
'….Where was I?'
'At Almack's for your grand social debut, eating dry biscuits
and hiding a hedgehog in your pocket.'
They call him the Duke of Ruin.
To an undaunted wallflower, he's just the beast next door.
Wealthy and ruthless, Gabriel Duke clawed his way from the lowliest slums to the pinnacle of high society–and now he wants to get even.
Loyal and passionate, Lady Penelope Campion never met a lost or wounded creature she wouldn't take into her home and her heart.
When her imposing–and attractive–new neighbor demands she clear out the rescued animals, Penny sets him a challenge. She will part with her precious charges, if he can find them loving homes.
Done, Gabriel says. How hard can it be to find homes for a few kittens?
And a two-legged dog.
And a foul-mouthed parrot.
And a goat, an otter, a hedgehog . . .
Easier said than done, for a cold-blooded bastard who wouldn't know a loving home from a workhouse. Soon he's covered in cat hair, knee-deep in adorable, and bewitched by a shyly pretty spinster who defies his every attempt to resist. Now she's set her mind and heart on saving him.
Not if he ruins her first.
Hi everyone. I am beyond excited and delighted to welcome you to my stop on the Wallflower Wager blog tour!
The Wallflower Wager is part of the Girl Meets Duke series, and is Penny's story. Gabriel Duke and Lady Penelope Campion meet when she breaks into an apparently empty house to catch a runaway (flyaway?) parrot. And it just gets better, sexier, and funnier from here.
Penny is an amazing heroine. She's spent the time since her disastrous debut in rescuing all kinds of animals. However, she's now forced into finding homes for them when her aunt decides to give her one last chance to re-enter society . If she doesn't, then she will have to return to the family home to become a spinster aunt. She's apparently scatty, naïve, ditzy – but hidden underneath is a truly strong character with a caring heart.
Gabriel is…he's…what can I say about a hero this wonderful? He's from the slums, self made, and as sexy as hell! Called the Duke of Ruin because he financially ruins members of the aristocracy, he decides to help Penny with her aunt's wager, because he knows that having a real 'Lady' living next door, will add value to his house. He's apparently got a heart of stone, but it soon becomes clear he's got integrity, as well as morals.
They both have secrets, both are scarred by their past, and lonely. Yet, they are equals and so perfect for each other.
This review wouldn't be complete without mentioning Delilah the parrot. I have a sneaky affection for her – she's such a brilliant creation. The interaction between them had me in stitches.
It is a glorious caper of a book! Tessa Dare has the rare ability to write real romantic comedy. It's effortless, unforced, and done in such a way that you really will cry with laughter. The interaction between hero and heroine veers between witty dialogue and sexy shenanigans, but always with that underlying spark of real, sensual, attraction. It's breath-taking!
The Wallflower Wager is the first Tessa Dare I've ever read. I loved it! So much so, I went and bought the first two in this series.
*Don't buy this if you are a traditionalist, and don't like 'modernised' language and characters.

The Lochmore Legacy: The Epilogue, Final Thoughts, and A Huge Thank You!
On August 20, 2019 By DebbieIn Historical Romance, Medieval, Regency, Scotland, Victorian2 Comments
Secrets of a Highland Warrior contains a beautiful epilogue by Janice Preston. It's poignant, emotional, and it brings us full circle. I'm so glad this was included because I felt it brought the whole series together, and provided closure. And honestly, it is so emotional I didn't just have a lump in my throat, I really did cry.
The Lochmore Legacy has been a stunning series from start to finish. The authors have been outstanding. Every single one. Each story is a testament to their ability, skill, and excellence, and they've all brought the uniqueness evident in their other books, and which makes each one an auto-buy author. I've loved each story for its own sake, but also for the underlying mystery running through each one. A mystery which was actually revealed more as each subsequent book moved us back in time. It really has been a joy to read.
I have to say a huge thank you to everyone involved in this collaborative series: Mills & Boon for the concept, all of the editors and above all, the amazing authors who brought it all to life with such breath-taking skill.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!

Secrets of a Highland Warrior by Nicole Locke
On August 20, 2019 By DebbieIn Historical Romance, Medieval, ScotlandLeave a comment
'Are we done now?' she asked. 'I have more to read and you are in the way.'
The key to his past…
…lies with the enemy sharing his bed!
Part of The Lochmore Legacy: a Scottish castle through the ages! Rory Lochmore had expected to wage battle, to claim land and finally secure his standing within his clan… Instead he won a wife. A McCrieff wife. Their convenient marriage could unite the two long-feuding clans forever. But can a political alliance give way to a passion strong enough to stand the secrets of the past?
Well. Here we are. The final part of the Lochmore Legacy. I really can't believe it's finished. This series has been wonderful from start to finish. I will be doing a separate post to somehow bring together all my thoughts on this series, and this will include the epilogue at the end of Secrets of a Highland Warrior.
So. Secrets of a Highland Warrior. The last book in the Lochmore Legacy series, but in a way, it's the start of the mystery. It is a marriage of convenience/enemies to lovers story, but it's also not that straightforward. The McCrieffs and Lochmores have been enemies for generations, and this enmity has recently been exacerbated by the grant of 'McCrieff land' to the Lochmores by Edward I of England. The McCrieffs have ignored all Lochmore communication about this, and as a last resort, Clan heir Rory Lochmore goes to the McCrieff stronghold. Once there, it becomes clear that this 'visit' has been engineered by Frederick McCrieff, second in command to the Clan Chief, so that he can arrange a marriage between his daughter, Ailsa, and Rory.
I loved this book! It's got everything: danger, secrets, intrigue, mystery, romance, complications, warring Scottish clans, an absolute dream of a hero …..
Ailsa McCrieff is a wonderful heroine. She's the clan healer, caring, sensible, and very intelligent. However, she's certainly no pushover – she's also very feisty and wields a mean set of shears! She's a perfect match for Rory.
Rory Lochmore is a pure dream of a hero. He's strong, muscular, gentle, and thinks on his feet. Yet, underneath all this, he's also very insecure. However, these insecurities don't detract from his attraction, rather they add to it.
I first came across Nicole Locke through her 'Lovers & Legends' series, and in Rory and Ailsa's story, she's brought all the things I love about her books. There's lots of snark, sparring, banter, and warring between the couple. Her wonderful descriptions, accurate sense of the age, clan life and warfare, her ability to weave in a sense of intrigue, and danger, all combine to build up tension, heighten our emotions, and serve up a truly satisfying read.

Mrs Sommersby's Second Chance by Laurie Benson
'I don't want to be beholden to any man again. It's why I will never marry again and place my future in the hands of a husband.'
'She was everything he could ever want in a woman and that thought frightened him down to his soul.'
She's played Cupid for others
Now she's met her own unlikely match!
Part of The Sommersby Brides. Widowed society matchmaker Mrs Clara Sommersby thinks handsome self-made businessman Mr William Lane is just the man for her neighbour's overlooked daughter. He's successful and confident, if somewhat emotionally distant, until suddenly―shockingly―his attention turns to Clara herself! She thought her days of romance were over, but is this dashing younger man intent on giving her a second chance?
Hi everyone. I'm thrilled to be part of another blog tour. This time, I'm delighted to welcome you to my stop on the Mrs Sommersby's Second Chance blog tour!
Mrs Sommersby's Second Chance is the fourth book in the Sommersby Brides series, but although some linked characters appear in this book, don't worry, you won't be left scratching your head saying 'huh?'. It is very much a stand-alone if you haven't read any of the others, (and why haven't you?)
So, on to the book proper. Set in Bath, it's the story of Clara Sommersby, widowed aunt of the Sommersby girls of books 1-3. Now she's on her own, it might be assumed that Clara will be bored and lonely, but she has a secret which is unknown to even her closest friends. A secret which could ruin her and her nieces if it got out. She owns a hotel which in those days was scandalous. She meets William Lane over a glass of spa water, and there's an instant, and mutual, attraction between them. However, William is in Bath on business, and is determined to buy Clara's hotel from the assumed owner.
Clara is a total joy as a heroine. She's fun, shrewd, but real. She still carries some baggage from the past, which is why she's determined never to hand over herself, or her business to another man, ever again. She's also realistic about her 'charms', and her age.
William is a self made man. He's serious, hard working, and intelligent. However, his heritage/upbringing, (he's a foundling), has caused him to protect himself by developing a very hard shell indeed. He has a huge chip on his shoulder which Clara delights in trying to knock off every chance she gets. It's wonderful to watch.
Laurie Benson has the gift of writing unconventional characters in a way takes our preconceived ideas, turns them upside down and inside out, and hands them back to us completely transformed. And we are the richer, more fulfilled, for it. She makes us care! She accurately reflects the fears, insecurities, and very real choices that are peculiarly associated with second marriages – particularly those embarked on in later life. Her love for the period shines through every word, as she brings the regency to life with a humour, and vividness that's breath-taking.
Finally, this is a very different kind of Romance in that the heroine is older than the hero, (Clara is 45, and William is 37). Don't let it put you off. It is a wonderfully gentle, and tender read, yet still has all the emotion you'd expect.
Laurie Benson is an award-winning author who writes flirty and frisky Regency romances. She began her writing career as an advertising copywriter, where she learned more than you could ever want to know about hot dogs and credit score reports. Now, she is happy to put that behind her and spend her time writing stories that take her and her readers on a romantic adventure. When she isn't at her laptop avoiding laundry, Laurie can be found browsing antique shops, going on ridiculously long hikes, or sitting in her car on the school pickup line. She lives with her husband and two sons in a house filled with testosterone—even her bunny is a boy.

Reclaimed by Her Rebel Knight by Jenni Fletcher
On August 1, 2019 August 10, 2019 By DebbieIn Historical Romance, Medieval, PlantagenetLeave a comment
'No! You said honesty was important to you, too. You said that you didn't have any more secrets!'
Married to a perfect stranger
Reunited with her warrior husband
When Constance inherited her father's lands she had no choice but to marry cold-hearted Matthew Wintour. He left her for the battlefield without even a wedding night. Five years later Matthew has returned―a valiant knight! But Constance is no longer a frightened girl. And this time she must reach out to discover the honourable man behind the armour and what pleasures await them in the marriage bed…
Hi everyone. I'm delighted to welcome you to my stop on the Reclaimed by Her Rebel Knight blog tour! I'm really thrilled to be part of this.
I really loved this book! Both for the storyline, and the time in which it is set. Reclaimed by Her Rebel Knight is set in the reign of King John, amid the backdrop of the barons revolt and the Magna Carta.
The hero, and heroine were married five years earlier, only they have never exchanged so much as a single word. Ever! Matthew left England as soon as the wedding was over, while Constance was sent to live with her uncle. The story begins as Constance's life is once again disrupted, because Matthew has returned for her. However, the tables are soon turned, when Constance begins to disrupt the barriers he has carefully constructed around his heart.
Constance is a wonderful heroine. She's hurt and bewildered by what she sees as Matthew's rejection and abandonment of her five years ago. Orphaned, torn from the home she loves, married to a man who she thinks only wanted her inheritance, it's not surprising she's angry. Nevertheless, her integrity and sense of honour, together with her underlying strength, resilience, and courage enable her to treat Matthew better than she feels he deserves.
I fell in love with Matthew right from the start. His surprising offer at the beginning proves he is trustworthy, and causes him to stand far above the other men. He is honourable, loyal, and determined to do the right thing, regardless of what it could cost him. He does make many mistakes with Constance because of the secrets he's keeping, but in spite of all this, his own sense of honour, integrity, courage, and strength are always apparent.
This is such a powerful story. We get a wonderful sense of that tentative, sometimes fearful, and intricate dance of two people who are learning to know, and trust one another, as they journey together towards healing, and wholeness.
Jenni Fletcher is one of the best Medieval romance authors I have ever read. She knows her history, her research is extensive and thorough, yet it isn't intrusive. She creates a vivid and authentic sense of the time, by seamlessly weaving her knowledge into the book in a way that's reminiscent of Nora Roberts. Ms Fletcher's characters fairly leap off the page, and draw you into their lives – you really do care what happens to them. Her ability to write very evocative, vivid, and moving stories, her understanding of emotion, and what it means to be human, her ability to write flawed characters with skillful compassion, all combine to make Ms Fletcher one of Mills & Boon's best. A definite auto-buy author.

She studied English at Cambridge University before doing a PhD on Edwardian literature & psychology at Hull. She has been nominated for 3 RoNA awards and has a day-job teaching creative writing.

Listen-to-Earn – You Can Now Earn Bitcoin For Listening To Podcasts
A Bitcoin facelift is being given to the podcasting business model.
Mobile payment company ZEBEDEE announced its cooperation with the "listen-to-earn" podcast platform Fountain on Tuesday in an effort to broaden its reach beyond gaming. This would enable podcasters and listeners to earn Bitcoin via the app.
"With this partnership, we're supporting a new type of business model and economic activity, not just for the payments space, but in general," Ben Cousens, ZEBEDEE's chief strategy officer, said in a statement.
ZEBEDEE, a gaming company focused on Bitcoin that was established in October 2019, publishes games through a mobile app. Bitcoin Chess and Bitcoin Scratch, a digital scratch-card game with mobile game company Viker, are two new play-to-earn games that ZEBEDEE just released.
Play-to-earn games allow players to play online and earn incentives that have real-world worth.
With a direct connection between podcasters and their audience and the ability for listeners to earn Bitcoin for each minute they tune in, listen-to-earn seeks to accomplish a similar goal for podcasters.
The listen-to-earn strategy tries to only spend money on listeners who truly want to listen rather than a costly and extensive advertising campaign.
"When money moves as seamlessly as information, or in this case, audio, it just opens up a world of possibilities, and we're happy to be pioneering what that means in the podcasting space alongside Fountain," Cousens said.

Hornets maintain their lead at the top
PUBLISHED: 09:33 21 January 2011
Rugby Hornetsv Avon
HORNETS needed a much improved performance this week to overcome an in-form Avon side.
They were then punished for early errors when Avon opened the scoring through their winger, but the conversion was missed. It wasn't until 22 minutes in, that Hornets woke the scorers, via a Paul Sheppard penalty.
The attacking play had now gained a little more edge and a foray into the visitors' 22, Hornets piled on the pressure and following good hands in the backs, Tom Bradley touched down.
Avon hit back with a penalty which they kicked to bring the scores level just before half-time.
After the break, there was 20 minutes of play that would have blown away any side. The spectators only had to wait four minutes before Bradley crossed for his second, following a back row move that saw Chris Disney break, pass to Bradley who completed a one-two with Stu Vinnicombe to beat the full-back before scoring. Sheppard was successful with the extras.
Next on the score sheet was player/coach Phil Hogarth, with Hornets continuing to attack they found themselves camped on the Avon line before scrum-half Sean Disney popped a short pass to Hogarth, who crossed out wide for his ninth try of the season.
From the kick-off, Hogarth caught cleanly and popped the ball to Chris Disney, who flattened a couple of defenders before passing to Greg Speller about 40 yards from home.
The No 8 then showed great pace to beat the winger and full-back to score the bonus point try. Sheppard converted and Hornets led 27-8.
Three minutes later, Adam Vaughan crossed to score what is undoubtedly the try of the season. Awarded a penalty in their own 22, Disney made a break in the middle of the park to get behind the visitors defence.
From here, forwards and backs interlinked, before Vaughan took the final pass to score the try. The conversion was missed, but Hornets had now shown what they can do and how quickly a game can be won.
Avon didn't give up though and credit to them as they came back and from the kick-off got themselves into a position where their fly-half could kick a drop goal. They then won a line-out and spun it wide for their winger to score a converted try.
Chris Francis was then driven over the line by the pack to score Hornets sixth and seal the game.
Although Avon did manage a further score in the dying minutes, bringing the final score to 37-25, Hornets kept a 13 point lead in the league.
On Saturday, Hornets travel to second placed Chard for what will undoubtedly be the toughest test of the season. Kick-off is at 2.30pm and support will be much appreciated.
Avonmouth RFC III 7 pts
Hornets RFC III 43 pts
Hornets Thirds original fixture was to play host to Minehead, but unfortunately they could not raise a side, therefore Hornets quickly obtained a game at Avonmouth.
From the start, Hornets showed the same grit and determination as last week, with forwards Dave Geddes, Dave Jones and Sam Baker carrying the ball well, dominating the line-outs, rucks and mauls.
Hornets scored their first try through full-back Connor Hull. Further tries came from winger Rob Owen, centres Steve Edwards and Joe Beaney and the final score of the half was by flanker Sean Steadman. Owen kicked three conversions to finish the first half 31-0 up.
After the break, Owen went over for his second of the game, which he also converted. After a few substitutions for Hornets, Avonmouth scored a consolation try, but Hornets were rewarded with the final try of the game when the ball was moved wide through the backs, where Dominic McCabe off loaded to Hull to score.
Man of the match was awarded to Sam Baker.


Introducing Deer Hunting Secrets by Joe Pineland - it is all about hunting and taking	"Big Trophy Sized Bucks". Click on the link and I guarantee you will become more excited about your next whitetail deer hunting outing.
Why most of what you hear about new scents, chemicals the latest expensive equipment and clothing is mostly hype.
Prevent being made by deer before even seeing them.
How to think like a deer, I found they are smarter than you might think.
Over a hundred more topics every hunter should know about and use.
The Pope and Young Club, a spin off from the National Field Archery Association's was founded in 1961 by Dr. Saxton Pope and Arthur Young as a nonprofit bowhunting and conservation organization.
They realized bowhunting needed an improved image even though as the club points out that "The bow has fed and nourished generation after generation for almost all of the past 50,000 years" and that it might even be the third most important discovery which made possible the continued survival of mankind, right after Fire and Speech.
Through nurturing all bowhunting not just whitetail deer	and promoting conservation (they patterned it after the existing prestigious Boone and Crockett Club) the P&Y Club has lifted bowhunting from an almost forgotten hunting method to the great standing it enjoys today..
Dr. Pope, along the way, wrote a book entitled "Hunting With the Bow and Arrow" which is one of the five free bonuses offered by outdoorsman Joe Pineland along with his all encompassing book (discussed above) "Deer Hunting Secrets".
DIY Hunting and Outdoors recently organized a new full time research department which has been charged with finding the best value products and new information for our readers.

My objective with this code is to create a page with a dropdown menu (named LabListDropdownMenu in the code) that includes the names of some cities, then, based on the selected city, the ListView should only show the widgets (named LabInfoWidget in the code) of the labs that belong in that city. In order to do that, i'm trying to change the visibility of the LabInfoWidget by using booleans in order to accomplish that.
The problem: I select the items in the DropdownMenu and it changes the booleans values correctly, but it doesn't seem to alter the widgets visibility. I searched in many places but I cannot figure out what am I doing wrong. Does anyone know if am I missing something here?
Thank you for your help!

A: The main problem is that you are calling setState((){}) method on the onChanged handler of DropdownButton, but this only rebuilds LabListDropdownMenu widget, so LabListBody is never being rebuilt.
To solve this you may pass a callback function to LabListDropdownMenu. This way, when the onChanged method gets fired, you can also invoke this callback to rebuild LabListBody.
It's kind of difficult to express it in words, so I've edited your code a little bit. I've also made some other minor edits to it:
Map _cityBool = new Map();

var _cities = [
  'City 1',
  'City 2',
  'City 3',

Ikebana, the traditional Japanese art of flower arrangement, calls for dedication, imaginativeness and love for the basic material. Ikebana aims at harmony, drawing from shape, rhythm and colour.
Guided by the same principles, Lemongrass presents the brand-new album "Ikebana" (on his own label Lemongrassmusic) which paves the way for new musical expressions and thoroughly captivates as well-measured extravaganza.
Right from the first listening you happily indulge in numerous vocal-based songs. Supported by Japanese singers Mayu Kawata and Yuko Matsuyama, all 15 tracks interweave the most diverse musical elements and styles ranging from 1970s- inspired pop and disco, French House and breakbeats up to orchestral ballads and cinematic ambient tracks.
The elaborate composition, atmospheric intensity, filigree diversity of rhythms and the ocean of sound colours make "Ikebana" an outstanding effort. With countless breaks, recurrent subtle changes in speed, an inexhaustible reservoir of sounds and samples and two extraordinary singers, Lemongrass have reached the height of their creativity. Magic!


The annual Christmas walk usually has a large turnout. Unfortunately, the weather did not live up to the fantastically cold and clear conditions we'd had the two previous weekends, and the forecast encouraged a few people to either join us for the meal only, or abandon the idea altogether. Undaunted, 25 of us still congregated at Hungerford station (Simon P turning up on the right day this year) and set off towards the common in the drizzle, almost managing to leave Richard S and his green wellies behind.
Those wellies turned out to be a sensible move. Dan had pre-walked the route and described it as muddy, requiring gaiters. However, the recent deluge of rain had added a lot of standing water and while it was fun to splash through a few large puddles, we were all brought up short by a path several feet underwater, ending in a bridge which had almost been obscured by the stream now rushing both under and over it. Some took a deep breath and waded in; others chose to skirt round the newly-made lake by detouring halfway across a field. It was while we were spread out negotiating our routes that Keyna missed her footing on the bridge and went into the water.
At first, it didn't seem to be a major problem. There was one of those ironic cheers, and Dan leaned over to give her a hand, figuring it would be easy enough to extract one small Australian from a stream. When he was nearly dragged in himself and Keyna's head went under, the rescue mission became a lot more serious. The stream's current had trapped her legs parallel under the bridge, and no amount of pulling or human chain-forming seemed to be having any effect – until Dave H leaped into the water, which came up to his chest, and managed to free her legs so that Mick could finally yank her from the water.
Once the immediate danger had passed and we were all trying to process what had just happened, the women in the group efficiently formed a human wall around Keyna so she could get rid of her wet clothes and re-attire herself in a variety of spare clothing provided by the group. (It was almost an hour later when she asked "Whose trousers am I wearing?") There was also hot coffee for Keyna and restorative mulled wine for the rest of us. Eventually we continued to the Indigo Palace at Ham, encountering another water obstacle just to ensure everyone had wet feet, where Beckie and Fiona had brought along dry clothing for the others who had gone in the river during the rescue (Dave, Bruce and Dan).
The Indian food was excellent as ever, but our late arrival and the large group meant that not only would we be finishing the second part of the walk in the dark, we'd be starting in the dark as well. Out came the head torches as we left Ham, and care had to be taken to keep the group together so as not to miss any turnings. The section through the woods was truly pitch-black. Eventually, however, we got to Bedwyn in plenty of time to finish off the mulled wine before catching the train back to Newbury. A few people went straight from the station to the King Charles and finished off the day with a few more beers, not to mention discussing the Incident of the Day. Considering we scale peaks, undertake exposed scrambles and rope ourselves to sheer rock faces, it's rather sobering to encounter our most dangerous situation for years just outside Hungerford. Everyone was OK and there were no serious consequences, thank goodness, but it was certainly a Christmas walk to remember.

UAH to host public discussion about multi-messenger astronomy on Nov. 20
NOV 16, 2017 | Diana LaChance
The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) will host a free science discussion, "Multi-messenger Astronomy: A New Era in Space Science," at 3:30 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 20, in the Student Services Building, room 112. The event will bring together a panel of astronomers to share the story behind how a small team of Alabama scientists helped identify the Aug. 17 co-detection that confirmed the origin of short gamma-ray bursts.
"The observation of the merger of two neutron stars on Aug. 17 by their emissions of gravitational waves and light across the electromagnetic spectrum, from radio to gamma rays, is the start of multi-messenger astronomy – observations by more than light," says Dr. Michael Briggs, assistant director of UAH's Center for Space Plasma and Aeronomic Research and a member of its Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Team. "These observations showed new characteristics of the short gamma-ray burst that resulted from the merger and showed that the gravity travels at the same speed as light."
The event's speakers include the following:
Julie McEnery, project scientist for the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center
Tyson Littenberg, astrophysicist at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center and member of the LIGO Science Collaboration
Colleen Wilson-Hodge, principal investigator for the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center
Wen-fai Fong, assistant professor of physics and astronomy at Northwestern University
Adam Goldstein, astrophysicist with the Universities Space Research Association at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center
Peter Veres, UAH postdoctoral fellow
Rachel Hamburg, UAH graduate research assistant
The media is also invited to conduct one-on-one interviews with participants beginning at 3 p.m. in room 114 of the Student Services Building.
