Laura Jane Haddock, the English actress was born on 21st August, 1985, in Welwyn Garden City, England. She is the daughter of Deborah Haddock, a reflexologist, and Ian Haddock, a financier. She aspired to be an actress from a very young and moved to London with that aim.
Her on-screen debut was through the television series Plus One, in 2008. She appeared in other television series including The Palace, My Family, Honest, etc. Her notable characters in films are Meredith Quill in Guardians of the Galaxy (2017) and its sequel Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Alison in The Inbetweeners Movie, and Vivian Wembley in Transformers: The Last Knight (2017).
She played the role of Zoe Walker in the Netflix British-Spanish thriller series White Lines lastly.
Laura Haddock Religion
There is no information regarding the religion or religious beliefs of Laura Haddock. It seems like she is not interested in disclosing the details about her spiritual side. She has always kept mum in these matters, even though she played notable roles in series like Da Vinci's Demons, which depicts the conflicts in religious matters.
Laura Haddock Political Views
Similar to the religious views, the political views of Haddock also remains unrevealed. The English actress, who has worked in Hollywood too, has not expressed her opinions regarding the political situations of either U.K. or U.S.
Therefore, it is safe to assume that Laura Haddock likes to keep her opinions about the present political circumstances away from the public.
After dating for two years, Laura Haddock married English actor Sam Claflin in July 2013. The couple have a son Pip and a daughter Margot. They announced about their legal separation on August 2019, six years after their marriage. Claflin once claimed in social media that he and Haddock will retain their love, respect, and friendship, even though they have divorced.
It is being rumoured that Haddock is currently dating Tom Rhys Harries, who is her co-star in the Netflix series, White Lines.
Laura Haddock Hobbies
Haddock is very popular in social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. She has great support through her fans in social media and loves to post pictures of her day-to-day activities. Beyond acting, she loves modelling too, but does not takes that much interest in that.
From her social media posts, it is evident that she likes swimming a lot, as she often posts her pictures in pools and beaches. It seems like Haddock loves music and partying too.
• In order to study drama, Haddock left school at the age of 17 and went to London.
• Her inspiration for becoming an actor is the Hayley Mills in Pollyanna show of 1960.
• Haddock was nominated for the Golden Raspberry Awards for the Worst Supporting Actress in 2018 for her acting in the movie, Transformers: The Last Knight.
• She was called "fish face", when she was studying at school.
• She wanted to be a policewoman in her childhood.

Goodbye to rumors of a possible Nokia 9 with 8 GB of RAM
Jun 3, 2017 Nokia 9, Nokia 9 cell phone specs, Nokia 9 priec, Nokia 9 release date, Nokia 9 review, Nokia 9 rumors, Nokia 9 specs, Nokia 9 with 8 GB of RAM
Rumors have long lasted that pointed to a Nokia 9 bestiary loaded with 8 GB of RAM inside. And is that although it is not impossible, as we have already hit the market with terminals that boast of such configuration as the Nubia Z17, the Nokia 9 will be somewhat more restrained in these terms.
Nevertheless, the new top of the Finnish company will go one step ahead of the Nokia 3,5 and 6 we met in the last edition of the Mobile World Congress, something we have been able to know thanks to the last leaks of its possible Specifications from GeekBench results.
According to the results that as we say have filtered through GeekBench, it is revealed that the chipset that would occupy the bowels of this terminal would be the portentous Snapdragon 835 which would accompany not 8GB as rumored also according to Geekbench, but 4GB of RAM, configuration More than enough for such a processor.
Despite these new results, it is not impossible to rule out that the terminal with a configuration of 6 or 8 GB could reach some Asian countries, but what is clear is that Europe and America would arrive a less inflated version of the same, That for the moment Nokia seeks to take care of more aspects of its new terminals as the software that endow them with raw power.
For now we do not know the official launch date for the Nokia 9 and much less of the price range to which we can acquire it, but what we do have is the landing of the Nokia 3310 and the Nokia 3, 5 and 6, so we hope to Expect to see how the company will develop in reconquest of the mobile market.

Danny, Silvio dropped, Vieirinha, Eliseu Called
November 7, 2011 / Sam Biggers
Due to injuries, Silvio and Danny have withdrawn from the Portuguese training camp ahead of the team's crunch play-off games against Bosnia. Silvio had been slightly injured while on duty for Atletico Madrid, and appears to not have recovered in time. Danny also has had similar problems, so he was also withdrawn. Called up as replacements for the attacking midfielder and the wing back are Vieirinha and Eliseu. This is Vieirinha's first call for the Portuguese National team, and it is one that is thouroughly deserved. The winger/attacking midfielder has been a revelation in Greece over the past few seasons after leaving Porto. Many have called for his inclusion in the squad, so his inclusion is a welcome one. Eliseu's inclusion is a welcome one too. The left winger-cum-left back has excelled in his new position, most notable during the team's 5-3 win over Iceland, where he recorded one goal and two assists. Though neither of these players will most likely see playing time, they are assets for the team coming from the bench.

#History, #Demography and the #Environment: Looking Back, Going Forward: LSE Academics Reflect on 2015 and Look Ahead to 2016
LSE academics reflect on a key story of 2015 along with what they expect from 2016.
Dr Joanna Lewis – Assistant Professor in Imperial and African History, Department of International History
In 2015, once again, events in Africa define the historical conversation between ourselves and our sense of our own humanity. First, in September, a new human ancestor was discovered in caves deep in South Africa. Homo Naledi could be among the first of humankind (genus Homo) living in Africa three million years ago. Before this discovery, it was believed only Homo sapiens experienced love and compassion enough to bury their dead. Not so. Meanwhile in July, global society mobilised to an unprecedented fever-pitch when Cecil, a lion in Zimbabwe, was killed for sport by a US game tourist after bribing officials. Mass hatred was expressed for a man who could inflict a slow, painful death on an animal. Yet it also provided a moment to reflect on why similar outrage was not expressed for the 147 victims of an Islamist terrorist attack in Kenya in the previous April.
Speculation will continue in 2016 about the identity of Robert Mugabe's successor as Zimbabwe leader Credit: GovernmentZA via Flickr (http://bit.ly/1JjZzpE)
2016 will possibly see Zimbabwe and South Africa take centre stage again momentarily. President Mugabe looks increasingly frail and South Africa's domestic tranquillity looks near to fade-out. But world attention is likely to refocus quickly more north again. Post-colonial historical hang-overs now look so last century, with European bilateral relations focused on countries generating economic migrants and rogue terrorists. The colonial past might be dead but it is not buried either.
Dr Bronwen Manby – Visiting Fellow, Centre for the Study of Human Rights
The adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals in September 2015 and the outcome of the COP21 Paris climate talks that took place in December 2015 are perhaps the two most important developments at global level, each with a potentially profound impact on Africa.
@BronwenManby
Dr Elliott Green – Associate Professor, Department of International Development
My main story for 2015 was the release in July of the 2015 revision of the UN's World Population Prospects, which was the first revision of UN demographic data since 2013. The report confirmed the ever-upward trend in African population as a result of the continent's stalled fertility transition, with an update in the projection for African population in 2050 (medium variant) by around 90 million people (from 2.39 to 2.48 billion). What is interesting is that the higher estimates of the African population do not come from the most populous country in Africa, Nigeria, whose projected population has been adjusted downwards from 440 million to 399 million in 2050. Instead they come from countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo (adjusted upwards from 155 to 195 million) and Angola (adjusted from 54 to 65 million). Thus the worrying trend is not only that Africa is experiencing explosive population growth but that much of this growth is coming from highly unstable, unequal countries with a long history of violence like Angola and the DRC.
My most anticipated story for 2016 is the effects of El Niño on Africa, especially in southern Africa. The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a periodic weather event that leads to warmer surface water temperatures in the Pacific but can lead to unusual rain patterns throughout the world. The 2015-2016 ENSO is predicted to be the strongest El Nino since 1997, when massive floods affected large parts of eastern Africa. This time around there are worries that the ENSO will lead to below-average rainfall over the 2015-2016 summer months across many countries in southern Africa, and could sharply worsen food access among already poor households in such countries as Malawi and Zimbabwe.
The views expressed in this post are those of the authors and in no way reflect those of the Africa at LSE blog or the London School of Economics and Political Science.

MO Zachary says:
Dear Joanna Lewis, as an African, I am grateful for the compassion regarding the massacre of 147 students in Kenya by terrorists. It requires a keener eye and an open mind to note the social prejudice in this world comparing it with the reaction and support that France received in her trying times. Concerning Mugabe, we are sad that a bold African leader is growing frail. We understand the West may hate him for reclaiming back the land of African people that was robbed by British South Africa Company.
Dear Elliot Green, it is true that population of Africans has been growing, not in the past decade, but throughout history unless in circumstances where the Western world has intervened to disrupt that natural process. In 2015, there was an attempt by WHO and Bill Gates Foundation to sterilize Kenyan women within reproductive age. We will be glad to have a population expert probably from LSE to look into the matter. I hope you are aware of the claim that the world is running out of resources as false. Instability in Africa is an engineered geopolitical agenda, initiated by TNCs and local Elites they support while siphoning resources out of Africa. Despite these problems that the Western world Corporations has put us in, we have adapted, survived and multiplied. Our problem is not population, Africa is very big and resourceful. Our problem is your corporations and governments that must manipulate us to survive.
Dear Bronwen Manby, I am an environmentalist and a student of sustainability. Climate change is a fishy agenda, especially in the developing countries. It is clear even from this post that there is not much ways you can attach Africa with it. I wish more energy and resources was spent on investigating environmental pollution, over-fishing in African Maritime borders, dumping of e-waste and other defective products in Africa , illegal logging in Congo Forest to supply demand for timber in the developed world and the list goes on and on.

Doctors urge governor's office to solve 'desperate medical supply shortage'
Kate Masters
Gov. Ralph Northam speaks at a news briefing in March 2020 on the spread of COVID-19 in Virginia and the state's response. (Ned Oliver/Virginia Mercury)
Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam is facing growing calls from doctors to address a statewide shortage of personal protective equipment spurred by the COVID-19 pandemic.
More than 100 doctors across the state have signed a letter, released Saturday, calling on Northam and Health Secretary Dr. Daniel Carey to "solve the desperate medical supply shortage that is thwarting our efforts to control this pandemic before it reaches the point of no return."
Among the most-needed supplies are basic protective garb — including surgical masks, respirator masks, gloves and disposable aprons — and testing kits. Testing for coronavirus remains limited throughout the commonwealth, and doctors in Virginia are experiencing the same shortages of essential supplies, such as viral culture media and sample swabs, as other areas of the country.
"For weeks we've been told those tests are just a few days away," the letter reads. "It's now clear that without your intervention they will not be here in time, if ever. We know the federal government has failed, but we need state and regional leaders like you to be part of the solution."
Dr. Paige Perriello, a pediatrician in Charlottesville, said she was inspired to write and distribute the letter after the success of her own local mobilization efforts. The practice where she works — Pediatric Associates of Charlottesville — has spent at least the last week rationing personal protective equipment in preparation for an expected rise in COVID-19 cases. In coordination with what she described as a "loosely affiliated grassroots effort," Perriello put out a community call for more gear.
It worked. Perriello said closed dental clinics began sending in face masks, schools began sending in googles and safety glasses, and local sewers began hand-sewing masks and other facial protection. One person even sent in a welder's mask. She's also been inspired by stories of luxury perfume makers who have agreed to make free hand sanitizer for the French government.
"I think there's an opportunity for bold leadership here," she said. "And continuing to watch and wait for what comes in doesn't feel like enough for us on the front lines. The letter was not meant to be critical, but hopeful that we can do better."
Shortages in other states have become increasingly critical as coronavirus-related hospitalizations continue to rise. In New York, one of the hardest-hit areas on the East Coast, doctors at a Brooklyn hospital told the New York Times that they were reusing masks for up to a week.

Northam addressed the concerns at his daily press briefing on Saturday, telling reporters that a shipment of protective equipment from the national emergency stockpile had been distributed to providers the day before. On Friday, Virginia Health Commissioner Dr. Norm Oliver said that the commonwealth had received close to 200,000 pieces of equipment — including respirator masks, surgical masks, and protective gowns — and would be prioritizing distribution to emergency medical responders and hospitals.
On Saturday, Carey said Virginia was "following every lead" to source more protective equipment. The commonwealth's emergency response team is tracking tips from General Assembly members, constituents, and health care providers about possible new sources of supplies, he said, and leaders are also considering whether other industries — such as industrial suppliers for mining and quarry operations — could supply items like N95 respirator masks.
"They may look a little different, but they're perfectly serviceable in a health environment," Carey said. Those efforts "haven't come online" yet though, he added.
Carey also said the state's actions needed to be complemented by a response at the federal level — a rare comment from a Virginia official. Northam has largely refrained from publicly critiquing President Donald Trump and his administration's response to the pandemic, unlike some other state leaders, including New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
"I think it's also important to say that this is a national problem," Carey said. "This will not be solved without a national solution. Otherwise we have each state grabbing for what they can."
On Friday, Trump announced that he will trigger the Defense Production Act, a Cold War-era law that enables him to force industrial companies to manufacture emergency medical supplies and sell them to the federal government. It's still unclear to what extent the administration will use the law to bolster equipment.
Virginia now has 152 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with 25 hospitalizations and two deaths. 2,790 people have been tested for the virus through the state and private labs, according to the most recent data from the Virginia Department of Health.

"I am so grateful to have been a part of Chatham's MOT program. The tight-knit community at Chatham - especially within the MOT department - made me feel supported, challenged, and encouraged. The professors genuinely wanted me and my classmates to succeed which was an empowering feeling. As a new clinician, I feel very prepared and excited because of my experiences at Chatham. "
"I am forever grateful for my graduate experience at Chatham in preparing me to provide true holistic OT treatment for others. The MOT curriculum is embedded with several experiential learning opportunities and consistently emphasizes the importance of acknowledging the connection between mental and emotional health with physical well-being. Today, I still remain in touch with several of the OT faculty members who continue to provide support in my growth as a clinician."
"Throughout my career as an MOT student at Chatham, I was challenged in ways that helped to fully prepare me for a wide range of clinical settings.

Creek Co. Sheriff: Arrest Made in Connection to Abused Dog Found in Field
18-year-old Arrested for Allegedly Mistreating Dog
The Humane Society of Tulsa Facebook page
OKMULGEE COUNTY, Okla. — Creek County Sheriff's Office has confirmed an arrest has been made in connection to the animal abuse of eight-month-old Atlas, the sweet dog who was dumped in a field with his legs strapped together and glue poured in his ears.
Officials say Creek Nation Lighthorse Police arrested 18-year-old Daniel K. Williams on Wednesday on an animal cruelty complaint.
He is being held at the Okmulgee County Jail.
It is unclear if the $10,000 reward will be awarded to an individual for any information that could have led to the arrest of the alleged abuser.
It is a felony to intentionally or maliciously "torture, destroy or kill" an animal, according to the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture. If the suspect is found guilty, he or she could face up to five years in prison or pay a fine of $500.

Q: How to put a text input box in a dropdown? Please can someone tell me how to put a input text box in a dropdown just as this :-

this pic was using bootstrap. I dont want bootstrap just want to use html/css and javascript maybe? pleas ehelp me i stuck on this quite long.

A: Code: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/OyQYmN
HTML tags can be nested in eachother. Given this, you can change the dropdown's HTML:

An option

Another option

Something else here

to include the <input type="text">.

A: To do this without bootstrap you will have to make your own CSS that will treat a list as a drop-down.
-one way to do this is explained here http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Create-Custom-CSS3-Dropdown-Menus-CSS-Drop/?ALLSTEPS
now that you have a list that is treated like a drop down, you can add any element you want in it.

A: I created a demo that uses pure CSS3 as a dropdown menu and added an input for you. Here is the code to accomplish this, demo is at the bottom.
/* Set Dropdown Display to None*/
nav ul ul {
    display: none;
}

/* Display Dropdown on hover*/

nav ul li:hover > ul {
        display: block;
}

ul li{
 display: inline-block;
}

ul li a {
  padding: 20px;
}

ul li a:hover{
  text-decoration: none;
}

nav ul ul {
    background: #222222;
  border-radius: 0px;
    position: absolute;
}

nav ul ul li{
  padding: 15px 0;
}

nav ul ul li a{
  color: #fff;
  opacity: .5;
}

nav ul ul li a:hover{
  color: #fff;
  opacity: 1;
}

On March 1, 2016 eXtension launched Catalog (http://catalog.extension.org). The purpose of this site is to provide a clearinghouse or central listing of courses available through Campus (http://campus.extension.org) as well as courses, webinars, workshops, or ebooks that might be available throughout the Cooperative Extension System. Further, it streamlines the process of creating user accounts on Campus, and accommodates specialized pricing options for fee-based courses and webinars.
Bundled courses, where for one fee, a student can gain access to more than one course.
For users, Catalog and Campus share login credentials. However, for the new user, Catalog simplifies the process of creating a new login account by eliminating the need for email verification--one of the more frequent issues we hear about on the help desk.
At 10:00 a.m. CST on March 9 (next week Wednesday), I will conduct an orientation session or tour of Catalog and its various features, as well as discuss the process by which you can get educational offerings listed on the site. I invite you to a Zoom session (a web conference) as described in the location for this event.
This 30 minute event took place 11:00 AM, March 9, 2016 EST.

Coples' OLB 'move' means little in scheme of things
BY NICK ST. DENIS
Front-seven defenders in a Rex Ryan defense better be prepared to line up anywhere -- and to be called anything.
Multiple media outlets reported Wednesday that the New York Jets plan to move defensive lineman Quinton Coples to outside linebacker. In other words, they're just changing his title. (photo: Matt Britt, Flickr)
Coples was often lined up in the middle of the defensive line as a rookie in 2012. But Ryan, the Jets' head coach, made it clear that he prefers to use Coples on the edge moving forward.
The 6-foot-6, 290-pounder has been listed as a defensive end but has played all over the line. Ryan's defenses thrive on their versatility and confusion up front, which has defensive linemen and linebackers more or less interchangeable depending on the look.
Coples is primed for a pass-rushing, disrupt-the-offensive-line role. Now that Gang Green has a pretty stout interior prospect in first-rounder Sheldon Richardson, they can open things up for standout defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson and Coples, as well as newly acquired outside 'backer Antwan Barnes.
Interior lineman Kenrick Ellis could see and expanded role, as well.
Regardless of title, the defensive guru Ryan will put Coples and his co-workers in position to be successful. Whatever that "listed" position is, however, should be taken with a grain of salt.

Fabrizio Romano: Spurs plot new "talks" over £40m machine, he's "perfect" for Conte – opinion
Tottenham Hotspur aren't giving up in their pursuit of Sporting CP wing-back Pedro Porro after transfer guru Fabrizio Romano provided an update on the situation heading into the final week of the January window…
What's the word?
"Tottenham are not giving up on Pedro Porro deal despite Sporting stance not changing: €45m release clause or no way. Spurs will insist again this week," he tweeted.
"Last week, Tottenham proposal also included one player but it was rejected. New round of talks, soon."
The north London side are yet to make any moves this month and are running out of time to bolster Antonio Conte's playing squad, though there is still hope after this encouraging claim.
Conte needs him
Porro is a player that the Italian head coach would surely love to have at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as it would solve his ongoing right wing-back nightmare.
Ever since he took over from Nuno Espirito Santo in the dugout, finding a regular and consistent starter in the role has been tough, especially as Conte has never been convinced by either of his current options in Matt Doherty and Emerson Royal, and clearly doesn't trust young summer signing Djed Spence either.
Just a few months into his reign, The Times revealed Spurs' interest in Adama Traore, suggesting that he had been targeted to replace the aforementioned first-team duo but he would go on to sign for FC Barcelona on loan.
This time around, it seems that Porro is the man that Tottenham want, and it's easy to see why.
In the current system, Conte relies upon his wing-backs to do a magnitude of work, helping defend as per normal but also aiding the attack with creativity, which is why the Spaniard fits the bill as he has registered three goals and 11 assists already this campaign. That's more than Doherty and Royal combined.
It's also double the number of Dejan Kulusevski and Ivan Perisic combined as well, which only highlights just how influential he could be as a playmaker in this squad.
And when compared to others in the position across FBref's 'next eight' competitions over the last year, the former Manchester City gem is in a league of his own, ranking inside the top 1% for total shots, assists, shot-creating actions and touches in the opposition box per 90.
It's also why the "special talent" – as lauded by journalist Zach Lowry – is considered to be the "perfect for Antonio Conte's football" – in the eyes of the aforementioned Romano – and that is exactly why he'd be something of a dream signing before deadline day.
As such, sporting director Fabio Paratici must look to get this £40m swoop for the assist-machine over the line, with less than a week to go.
AND in other news, Forget Tuchel: 50 y/o could save Spurs again…
Aston Villa make enquiry to sign "thrilling" £20m gem, he could be Emery's new Neymar – opinion

The Progress Casting Group in Plymouth, Minnesota specializes in precision die casting and sand castings for the automotive, aerospace and defense industries.
Release agents and residual materials need to be removed from the surface of their casting molds without rounding the corners, which is important for product quality. Rounding of mold edges leads to flash on the parts, shortens the mold life and creates secondary waste and potential eye injuries from atmospheric contaminants.
The refractory coating (releasing agent), the resin spray buildup, sand casting components and core residues on the core boxes and low-pressure casting molds are currently being removed by sand blasting and manually with brushes.
The foundry began to research new cleaning methods that would remove the refractory coatings and other residual material without damaging mold vents. They also wanted to avoid uneven refractory coating, which affects the quality of the final product and speed of production.
The Progress Casting Group tested a dry ice blasting system and used it to clean their most delicate screen vents at full blast.
The dry ice blasting process is similar in concept to sand or soda blasting, where the respective media is accelerated through a pressurized air stream to clean a surface. However, that is where the similarities end.
Even at maximum blast aggression, there was no damage to the parts and the molds looked brand new.
Previously, it took two to three workers 3-4 hours to clean one or two molds. Today, it takes one worker 10 minutes to clean a mold while it remains hot and online.
The tooling supervisor estimates that they are saving $400 - $500 per mold with a dry ice blasting system.
Approximate annual labor savings: $15,340.
Approximate annual productivity gain: $92,115.
Annual net profit (5 mold machines): $106,544.
By using dry ice blasting, the foundry was able to clean their low pressure casting molds faster and more effectively without damaging the molds.
It previously took two to three workers 3-4 hours to clean one or two molds. Today, it takes one worker 10 minutes.
