This page is dedicated to my co-author Robin Kerrod who sadly passed away in September 2005. It was a privilege to know Robin, who was an inspirational writer and an inspirational friend.
My first book The Way Science Works – which I co-authored with astronomy and children's author Robin Kerrod - is a highly illustrated introduction to physics and chemistry for children aged around 9-14. There are five main sections: Looking at Matter, Atoms and Elements, Forces and Energy, Heat and Sound, Light and Colour, and Electricity and Magnetism.
The Way Science Works was published by Dorling Kindersley in association with the Science Museum in April 2002, and contains over 60 experiments for budding young scientists to try at home. I demonstrated some of these experiments during the launch event in Ottaker's bookstore at the Science Museum in London, and was helped by plenty of enthusiastic volunteers from the audience! I also gave the same talk with demonstrations and audience participation for patients at Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital in London. Read more...
In May 2003, The Way Science Works was shortlisted for the Junior Prize in the Aventis Prizes for Science Books. The pictures below were taken at the Award Ceremony at the Science Museum on 25th June 2003. They show (first image below) my co-author Robin and I collecting our award from broadcaster Carol Vorderman and Chief Executive of Aventis UK Pierre Chancel, and (second image below) Robin and I with the other shortlisted authors for the Junior Prize (from left to right): Nicholas Harris, Nick Arnold and Tony de Saulles, Sally Hewitt, myself and Robin, Dr Frances Dipper (the winner) and Sholly Fisch.

This surely is the most charming front door in Sunbury. Pomfret Cottage has always enchanted me when I have walked past. It is a grade 2 listed house which is thought to originally date from the Restoration Period with later additions from both the Queen Anne and Georgian Periods. 'Pomfret Cottage' got its name from the 1st Lord Pomfret who is said to have lived at 'Pomfret House' and to have owned the surrounding land.
It was rented or borrowed by Edward VIII, Prince of Wales for his visits to Monksbridge.
There are a multitude of features, taking you back to the time when the building comprised two cottages. There is a first floor drawing room which has three floor to ceiling sash windows. You will find wood panelling, coving and imposing fireplaces. Befitting a properly of this type, there is also a walled garden.
What a gem!

Value of online Question Answering (Q&A) communities is driven by the question-answering behaviour of its members. Finding the questions that members are willing to answer is therefore vital to the efficient operation of such communities. In this paper, we aim to identify the parameters that cor- relate with such behaviours. We train different models and construct effective predictions using various user, question and thread feature sets. We show that answering behaviour can be predicted with a high level of success.

Millionaire Ronaldo backs Blatter 'slave' outburst
Cristiano Ronaldo believes FIFA president Sepp Blatter was right to controversially describe him as being treated like a "modern-day slave" by current club Manchester United.sports Updated: Jul 11, 2008 10:43 IST
Cristiano Ronaldo believes FIFA president Sepp Blatter was right to controversially describe him as being treated like a "modern-day slave" by current club Manchester United.
Ronaldo was responding to Blatter's comments made earlier in the day, in which the head of world football insisted the player should be allowed to join Spanish giants Real Madrid if he wants to.
"I completely agree with the FIFA president," said the player currently resting in Portugal after undergoing an ankle operation.
He added: "The president is correct, but I do not want to say more."
Real Madrid are believed to be prepared to offer around 85 million euros for the 23-year-old and pay him nine million euros on a five-year deal.
Ronaldo, a boyhood Real fan, has consistently been linked with a move to the Spanish capital since the end of last season after scoring an impressive 42 goals last term as United won both the Premier League and Champions League.
"There is no agreement with Real Madrid and I still don't know where I will be playing next season," Ronaldo said on Thursday, adding that he will be out for "10 to 12 weeks" to recover from his operation.
Wading into the protracted wrangle over the player's future, Blatter said that the current practice of tying players to long contracts amounts to "modern slavery".
And he urged Manchester United and Real Madrid "to sit together" if Ronaldo wants a move to the Spanish club.
"The important thing is we should also protect the player," Blatter told Sky News.
"If the player wants to play somewhere else, then a solution should be found because if he stays in a club where he does not feel comfortable to play then it's not good for the player and for the club.
"I'm always in favour of protecting the player and if the player, he wants to leave, let him leave."
Blatter believes the issue raises questions about the way transfers and contracts are dealt with in the game.
"I think in football there's too much modern slavery in transferring players or buying players here and there, and putting them somewhere," he continued.
"We are trying now to intervene in such cases. The reaction to the Bosman law is to make long-lasting contacts in order to keep the players and then if he wants to leave, then there is only one solution, he has to pay his contract."
United issued a swift rebuke to Blatter's outburst, insisting that all their players were happy to sign contracts with the club and knew the consequences of entering into such an agreement.
A United spokesperson said: "All our players - like at other clubs - enter into their contracts after an open and free negotiation.
"Most of whom do after taking advice from a FIFA-registered agent. Many do so on a number of occasions and enjoy long and successful stays at Old Trafford."
UEFA's communications director William Gaillard, who serves as special advisor to European football governing body president Michel Platini, was also unimpressed by Blatter's outburst.
"It would be useful to remind people that slaves in all of the slavery systems never earned a wage," said Gaillard.
In contrast, Gaillard fears the Bosman ruling, which allows for free transfers at the end of contracts, has given players the upper hand and contributed to spiralling wages.
"It seems that both clubs and players are trying to negotiate an exit before the player is free," Gaillard said.
"It is a consequence of the Bosman ruling - there is nothing we can do about that. It is obvious that today players have a lot more power than they did 20 years ago, undoubtedly, and agents have a lot more power than they did 20 years ago.
"It is true that salaries are spiralling out of control.

PPC said it would spend US$80m on a cement mill in Harare, Zimbabwe, to be commissioned in 2016.
The new mill, to be funded by a corporate loan, is expected to boost operating efficiencies. The company is planning to close less efficient mills at its Bulawayo factory.
Last year, PPC announced it would also construct a clinker plant in Mt Darwin in northern Zimbabwe and a cement mill in Tete province, Mozambique.
Market slowdown
In an interim trading statement released earlier this week, PPC said a slowdown in the Zimbabwean economy has led to muted domestic growth in cement sales. Increased efforts to export product from Zimbabwe to neighbouring countries boosted cement sales volumes from its operations over the first half of the current fiscal.
However, PPC chief executive Ketso Gordhan noted noted that there is huge potential in revamping Zimbabwe's infrastructure and addressing significant related bottlenecks. Under the Zimbabwe Agenda for Sustainable Socio-Economic Transformation, the government has devised a programme which includes an 'Infrastructure Cluster' focussed on the rehabilitation, upgrading and development of key infrastructure and utilities comprising power generation, roads, rail, aviation and water.

"To manage and (eventually) reverse the opioid epidemic, state Medicaid programs should now take a deeper look at the role prescribing plays…",
"The drug industry was more than willing to meet the need of increased opioid administration and more than willing to advance its usage…..
Adding to this pressure to overprescribe powerful analgesics was the decision by Medicare to adjust payments to hospitals according to their Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) surveys. This naïve thought put medical treatment on par with any other commodity. But, medicine is different—often patients have an erroneous view of what is in their best interest. Thus, they may be dissatisfied with appropriate medical decisions. In response, many hospitals have fostered a hotel-like approach to please patients.
This practice has led to patients being discharged with a plethora of powerful analgesics to assure hospitals receive excellent scores.
These series of missteps by the medical establishment, the government and public desire has led, in our nation, to drug overdoses (primarily opioids) as the leading cause of accidental deaths." (A)
"In a recent letter to the Health and Human Services inspector general, Johnson noted that opioid problems appeared much worse from 2013 to 2015 in states that expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act than those that didn't, based on Census data and statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention…
Overall, overdose deaths per million residents increased twice as fast in Medicaid expansion states than in non-expansion states.
Correlation doesn't automatically equal causation, but Johnson provides reason to think it exists in this case. Based on police comments, he reports someone with a Medicaid card can obtain up to 240 oxycodone pills for as little as a $1 co-pay. Those pills can then be resold for $4,000 on the black market.
It's not unreasonable to think some people will exploit the system for fast cash, especially since others (taxpayers) foot almost all up-front costs." (B)
"We need a plan. Now that the President has labeled this as a national health emergency, we need to act on this momentum to effectively combat this crisis….
Addiction is an illness, and we must start treating those struggling with substance abuse like patients.
Part of this approach must include improving access and use of treatment and recovery services, offering support to people who have become addicted, and using research data to prevent high-risk populations from ever encountering opioids. And we need more post-treatment rehabilitation programming that reintegrates recovering patients into society.
And importantly, we need to focus on prevention and improve education and training for the physicians and healthcare professionals who are on the front lines of this crisis. Similarly, we all need to understand the dangers of opioid abuse and the risk of addiction and overdose.
Federal money should go towards funding innovative solutions– (C)
"Following on the heels of last week, advocates, social service providers and people with a history of drug use staged a protest on Thursday at the office of Governor Andrew Cuomo to raise the visibility of the epidemic of overdose raging across the state and demand bolder political action.
Protestors called on the Governor to: 1) guarantee universal access to sterile syringes, naloxone, buprenorphine and methadone to every New York State resident struggling with a heroin or opioid addiction; 2) mandate that every Office of Alcohol and Substance Abuse Services (OASAS) funded program at least offer buprenorphine and/or methadone to people using opioids; 3) support the creation of safer consumption spaces, also known as supervised injection facilities.
New York State does need to ensure immediate access to drug treatment on demand for all its residents, but to tackle the overdose crisis it must also ensure that the treatment offered adopts evidenced-based approaches that work. Additionally, many New Yorkers, especially those in rural counties, have limited or no access to proven public health interventions like sterile syringe access, naloxone, buprenorphine or methadone, leading them to continued heroin and opioid use." (D)
"Physicians are increasingly being asked for pain medication and some struggle to determine how to prescribe appropriately. It may be obvious that a patient needs some pain management after a procedure or while managing a painful condition. And it might be clear that an endless supply of opioids puts a person at high risk for addiction. But how much is enough? How much is too much? Three tablets? Six? 12?…
Practicing Wisely™, a new initiative aimed at developing measures of clinical appropriateness, does just this. States can use the program's opioid measures to track variation in physician prescribing behavior for specific cases of opioid use, such as prescription rates following a C-Section. Comparing physicians' prescribing patterns to the prescribing patterns of like-specialty physicians, performing the same procedure on a similar patient population can help to identify physician outliers. That is, physicians whose prescription rate deviates constantly from the rates of their peers for a given type of opioid use. Importantly, physicians can gain insight into how their peers are responding to demand for opioids and can consider any adjustments to their own behavior that might be more in line with what is typical among a similar population.
To manage and (eventually) reverse the opioid epidemic, state Medicaid programs should now take a deeper look at the role prescribing plays, and they can tackle the "gray" area of appropriate prescribing through the deployment of appropriateness measures."(E)
"In the wake of President Trump declaring the opioid epidemic "a national emergency," Express Scripts, the nation's largest pharmacy benefit manager (PBM), has rolled out a new opioid management program that will limit the number and strength of opioid drugs to first-time patients…
Express Scripts' Advanced Opioid Management solution is expected minimize early exposure to opioids while helping prevent progression to overuse and abuse, while ensuring access to medication patients need.
In a pilot study, the PBM observed a 38% reduction in hospitalizations and a 40% reduction in emergency room visits after educating patients about the risk of opioid use. An educational letter was also sent out to providers who showed high prescribing patterns and held counseling calls. Among this subset, a 19% decrease in the day's supply of opioid dispensing during six-months of follow up, was observed.
Meanwhile, the American Medical Association (AMA) has found fault with the program, saying that treatment decisions should be left to physicians and their patients.
Here are 7 things to know about Express Scripts' program to limit opioids:.." (F)
"Three local library systems are training staff in the use of the opioid overdose antidote naloxone and others are considering the move as more government agencies are joining the fight against Maryland's opioid epidemic.
Library staff in Harford, Carroll and Anne Arundel counties have begun to offer training in administering naloxone, also known by its brand name, Narcan.
Meanwhile, library systems across the region are giving patrons access to a database of ebooks, audiobooks and other resources on addiction, recovery and the opioid epidemic, part of an effort to make libraries a greater resource for people confronting drug abuse." (G)
"Mr. President, if you are serious about stopping America's opioid crisis, instruct Attorney General Jeff Sessions to have the Department of Justice join in these legal actions, bringing the investigatory and legal weight of the FBI to battle the multibillion-dollar pharmaceutical opioid industry and the largest distributors and retailers of the drugs. Don't waste federal resources on isolated overprescribing doctors and puny drugstores — the states can handle those cases. Tell Sessions to nip this tsunami in the bud by going after entities that garner more than a billion dollars a year off opioids. Tell Sessions to nip this tsunami in the bud by going after entities that garner more than a billion dollars a year off opioids.
Stop the export of America's opioid crisis.
Stop the import of fake and copycat foreign-made opioids. " (H)
"Dr. Leslie Blackhall handled that case and two others at the University of Virginia's palliative care clinic, and uncovered a wider problem: As more people die at home on hospice, some of the powerful, addictive drugs they are prescribed are ending up in the wrong hands.
Hospices have largely been exempt from the national crackdown on opioid prescriptions because dying people may need high doses of opioids. But as the nation's opioid epidemic continues, some experts say hospices aren't doing enough to identify families and staff who might be stealing pills. And now, amid urgent cries for action over rising overdose deaths, several states have passed laws giving hospice staff the power to destroy leftover pills after patients die." (I)

Control your self doubt.
Stop putting energy into wishing your life was any different, into wishing bad things didn't happen, instead focus 100% on what you have. I want you to ask yourself 'When was the last time I let self doubt get in my way? When did I let my mind take control of my actions? Were you happy with the results?' Self doubt has a way of getting under you skin. it will take over your body if you can't control it. It destroys the mind, soul and the heart, we all have those inner voices inside our heads that tell us we are not good enough, not strong enough and incapable of doing the things we dream of. Often, these feelings of weakness or incompetence stem from childhood and become ingrained in our very being. There is so many ways to get rid of self doubt but the main thing is to live in the present. Most of the time we reflect on previous memories and experiences that results in self doubt, but if we were to focus on the now you can move forwards.
Looking beyond the negative.This might be the thing that is holding you back. We spend way too long focusing on the bad stuff, worrying and stressing. I am telling you now there is so much more to life than that! Albert Einstein once said "Stay away from negative people. They have a problem for every solution." No matter how much you try to fix someone sometimes the problem can be unfix-able, the rejection you may get shows their aren't willing to develop as a person and you are better off without them. Yes we all have bad times, we all have them moments when we need to just cry but what is important is that you can move on from it, any bad or negative situation you need to be able to let go of it and not live your life in the past.
Remember why you started.
Ever felt like quitting? What about when you fail, how does it make you feel?
Having that feeling of giving up and surrendering is ok but what you need to make sure you do is not allow yourself to give in. The best way to remind yourself not to give up is remembering why you started, remembering that every bit of pain you have ever felt is worth it because it's built you up and made you stronger. There is a quote that I love that Chris Burkmenn said "If you can remember why you started, then you will know why you must continue."Just reminding yourself of the reasons you started your journey will help you to regain them positive, inspiring thoughts and remind yourself why you wanted this. If you keep the reasons for your goals fresh on your mind, they will help keep you motivated when you feel like quitting. Keep your mind focused on the reasons that you started. Keep your mind focused on the benefits of continuing.
Believe everything happens for a reason
I have always believed in this and that you are where you are meant to be. You might not always end up where you thought you were going to, but you will end up where you are meant to be. I believe whatever you experience it happens for a reason whether it be heartbreak, pain, happiness or love it happens so you can learn a valuable lesson from it. You may not always understand straight away but when you look back in a few years you will realise why you had to experience certain things in order to live the life you live.
You can't have the pleasure of success without suffering through the pain of defeat. Even when these are tragedies outside of our control, there is a reason for them. The reason we have to experience things like heartbreak, lose and disappointment is because it prepares us for life. You life is a journey and everyday you will progress, nobody because something overnight it takes work and that's why we have to experience all these different emotions to prepare us.
Now people get the wrong impression of meditation, they think it's women in yoga pants, legs crossed and making random sounds. But there is a deeper meaning to it, a deeper understanding. Yes meditation will make you feel less stressed, it will make you feel more creative and more positive, more focused. I can't deny that I experience this when I meditate , however it isn't like this at first. Most of you might think when you first meditate you will instantly feel like a different person, well it isn't always that easy. I can remember when I had my first meditation class back in secondary school and at first I felt confused on how I felt, like I think after my first session I expected to instantly feel uplifted and more happy but I didn't really know what to think. Meditation comes with practice, it is a skill that you will only be able to do when you have really learnt to understand the meaning behind it, and what a lot of people don't know if that the first thing Monk's are taught in their meditation classes is how to breathe. Now breathing is key! So yes meditation will make you feel more positive but remember it's a skill so it will come with practice and hard work.

Life IS beautiful, isn't it? I don't mean that its always sparkly and shiny, but that in everything we go through we can always appreciate the opposite situations – the contrast causes us to savour each think in "real time". There is beauty in joy and beauty in sufferings, though it is hard to see it when we go through the worst of times. When we do we are able to see the supportive people in our lives, and to have empathy for those who might be going through the same situations at some point. Ok, enough about the why I chose this theme. I'm making this card for this week's The Paper Players #382 sketch
I chose my middle section first - this lovely panel by Bo Bunny and added this sentiment from Forever in Time, stamped in versamark on cardstock, then cut with a Simon Says die. I backed the first panel with a pink sparkle paper and then a thicker vertical glitter cardstock in a dark grey. I placed all this atop a die cut cardstock embossed with a Darice folder. My final touch was the small heart I affixed next to the sentiment, punched out of a bit more of the Bo Bunny panel.
I hope your day is passing by as creatively as mine!

The success of the creative economy depends on the vision of its artists. At the fringes of mainstream feature films and television commercials, there is video and performance art. At the edges of mainstream music, there are audio-visual festivals taking audiences to their sensory limits. On the margins of engineering, there are do-it-yourself makers and Hackers. And so on.
More than any other sector, at the very heart of the creative economy, media artists engage with new technologies with a sense of play. Inspired by the powerful possibilities afforded by new technologies, media artists open up to new ways of thinking about, of doing technology. The stuff of Media Arts today encompasses online communities, game play, distributed and open source technology development, mixed or augmented reality experience, assistive technologies, cyborg bodies, and other as yet unimagined territories of invention.
From the very small DIY projects, to the spectacular events altering our sensorium, to virtual communities of technologists and creators, the Media Arts today remind us of technology's potential to elicit wonder. They are where technology – and human beings – come to play.

Good Morning!
John 19:31-37
31Since it was the day of Preparation, the Jews did not want the bodies left on the cross during the sabbath, especially because that sabbath was a day of great solemnity. So they asked Pilate to have the legs of the crucified men broken and the bodies removed. 32Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who had been crucified with him. 33But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34Instead, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once blood and water came out. 35(He who saw this has testified so that you also may believe. His testimony is true, and he knows that he tells the truth.) 36These things occurred so that the scripture might be fulfilled, "None of his bones shall be broken." 37And again another passage of scripture says, "They will look on the one whom they have pierced."
Passover falls on the 15th day of Nissan, in the Jewish calendar. That is sometimes a Saturday (measured from sundown on Friday to sunset on Saturday), in which case the Passover Sabbath (Friday evening to Saturday morning) is especially holy. The synoptic gospels say that Jesus ate the Last Supper with his disciples as a Passover meal, which would mean Passover was on the Thursday, and that the religious leaders were concerned about having the body removed before the Sabbath. But John says that meal was a preparation meal, and that the Passover occurred on a Sabbath that year. In this way he is emphasizing Jesus as being the Passover Lamb, given us for salvation. Whichever was the case, all agree that the religious leaders wanted the bodies taken down before the Sabbath began. It is interesting that again Pilate yields to them. It was the custom among Roman conquering armies to leave bodies on the cross as a warning to the populace.
The religious leaders asked Pilate to have the legs of those on the cross broken so they would die more quickly. A person dies of crucifixion by asphyxiation, when they are no longer able to push up and expand the chest to breathe. Breaking the legs would hasten that process by making pushing up from the feet impossible. It was a cruel death. And so, the soldiers went to break the legs of the men, but when they came to Jesus, they saw that he was already dead. Jesus had said, "It is finished" and given up his spirit. He had finished his work and died to this life. We can speculate that he died quickly because of the severe flogging and blood loss, but to the writer here, Jesus died quickly because his work was finished and he chose his own time to do so. The writer then says that the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once blood and water came out. This emphasizes Jesus' true humanity and the reality of his death. "He who saw this" is likely John, again unnamed, but in this gospel the only one of the disciples who remained at the cross. He testifies to this so that we also might believe.
"These things occurred" – the failure to break his bones fulfilled (completed) scripture: the Passover Lamb was given whole – none of its bones was broken; or perhaps he refers to Psalm 22:16,17, "I can count all my bones". And then he also quotes Zechariah 12:10, "And I shall pour out a spirit of compassion and supplication on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that, when they look on the one whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly for him, as one weeps over a firstborn." John wants his community (and future readers such as ourselves) to understand two things in this passage – that Jesus was truly human and he truly died, even though John has spent much of the gospel telling us of Jesus' divinity. He holds the paradox together here. And secondly, that these things happened by Jesus' choice, in order to fulfill the scriptures, and for the salvation of humankind.

This post is slightly NSFW so I am going to put the picture below the cut – that is what happens sometimes when blogging lingerie. 😛
Better things to do than work.
I have been playing around with mesh heads again, still trying to learn to love them.
I did fall in love with the skin appliers at Insol though, they are gorgeous – and what I am using today in this post.

This will probably be my last post before Christmas, I have been busy with all the holiday shopping – and still must wrap ALL THE THINGS.
Stockholm & Lima recently released some body wraps in several colors though that I wanted to show off while everyone still has time to go grab them before Christmas. Who doesn't want to be a little human present? 😛
There are also wrist and ankle ties that are not shown here, but they match the giant bow.
ALSO – my panties are free from Erratic as a recent group gift. It's a very sexy lingerie set ( top is included as well ) and it comes in 2 colors. You can see it better – here – on Erratic's Flickr.

As always the detail work on her lingerie is incredible.
Ever the same.
It's Friday. I am lazy. Have a picture and some credits. ❤

Lecture 1 Definitions
Corporations: The fundamental difference between a corporation and other types of business entities is that the law recognises a corporation as a separate legal person in addition to its office holders. As a legal person, an officer of a corporation is required to act in an ethical manner as set out by legislation (and the corporations / industry code of ethics).
Common Law: Unenacted laws created through reported decisions of judges in superior courts usually includes the law of equity
Civil law system: Based on Roman Law, Primary source of law is legislation (enacted), Inquisitorial E.g: Western Europe, Indonesia, Japan etc.
Civil law: (Citizen v Citizen, Organisation, or Gov't) covers actions brought by one individual against another which results in remedies for the winning party and liabilities for the losing on : emphasis on remedies – $$$$, Standard of proof is: On the Balance of Probabilities
Criminal law: (State [Gov't] of Fed [Gov't] v Accused) covers actions brought by the State [Gov't] Crown (R) on behalf of the state against a person for doing an act the State considers to be a crime and which is punishable by a penalty : Emphasis on punishment – jail, fines etc and Standard of proof is: Beyond Reasonable Doubt
Common law system: Sources of law include both legislation and judge made (case) law, Accusatorial/adversarial – E.g: Commonwealth nations (i.e. Australia, Canada) & the USA
Ethics is concerned with what is right and what ought to be and not accepting what is, as members of society.
Equity: Equity developed as a result of the growing inflexibility and rigidity of the common law – It is supplementary only; rather than a complete legal system in its own right. In the event of a conflict with the common law, equity will prevail and Equity law does not apply to all civil disputes and it has no application in criminal law
International law: is concerned with regulating the conduct between nation states-…

A world on fire
By Jim Poling Sr.
Published Nov. 22, 2018
Through snowflake-speckled windows I watch stately trees sagging beneath the weight of the early November snowfall. It is a winter picture that denies the existence of wildfires.
Yet the wildfires are there, on the television screens, in newspaper stories and photos and on social media sites. Walls of flames consuming huge pieces of California, its people and their possessions.
The images are only camera views, and they come from 2,000-plus miles away, so they are no threat and can be forgotten easily. They shouldn't be because wildfires are an increasing threat to our country, and the world.
This year alone there have been 6,845 wildfires in Canada, more than double the 25-year average of 3,000. They burned 2.2 million hectares of land and forests. Last year 5,305 wildfires burned 3.4 million hectares.
Ontario alone had 1,325 fires that consumed 276,356 hectares in 2018, and that's close to double the annual average of 757 fires burning 111,487 hectares. A July fire was close to home, burning 11,000 hectares in the Parry Sound area, threatening to shut down Highway 69.
We Canadians tend to think of wildfires as forest fires that burn bushes, trees, and cause grief to wildlife. In fact, they are becoming more of a threat to the places where we live, our homes and our other possessions.
A most recent and terrifying example is the Fort McMurray, Alberta fire of 2016. Upwards of 88,000 people in the city and surrounding areas were evacuated – the largest wildfire evacuation in Canadian history. Also, it was the costliest disaster in Canadian history.
No one died directly in the fire, however, thousands of lives were changed.
My own family history tells a lot about how wildfires change lives. My grandparents and their young family escaped from the Great Minnesota Fires that destroyed their hometown of Cloquet, near Duluth, in 1918. I remember a photograph of my grandmother holding my father and his older brother as she stood in water (likely the St. Louis River) as flames engulfed their town.
Hundreds of people died in the fires and many hundreds more lost their homes and jobs. The paper mill where my grandfather worked was destroyed. He moved the family to Canada to get work in another mill.
The Cloquet fire that changed my family history was touched off by human activity - sparks from a train. Roughly one third of wildfires are started by human activity. Lightning strikes cause the rest.
The increase in wildfires is not just a North American thing. The number of fires this year across Europe is up 40 percent on average.
With statistics showing wildfires becoming more frequent, we must work harder to reduce human causes, plus find fresh ways to control fires when they start and reduce the areas that they burn.
The best way to achieve that is to listen to the experts. There are thousands of wildfire and climate experts with the science backgrounds and experience needed to find solutions. They need to have a bigger voice in saying how we can lessen the threat.
One person who thinks he is an expert, but definitely is not, is the president of the United States who says that wildfires can be prevented by raking the forest floors.
"We gotta take care of the floors, you know, the floors of the forest. Very important," he said during a tour of the California devastation in which he mistakenly called the burned out town of Paradise, "Pleasure."
One of the scientists worth listening to is Australian David Bowman, a global wildfire expert often quoted in the world media.
"Growing cities, poor planning, recurring heat waves, more people living closer to forests and more combustible landscapes have together created a more fire-prone world," Bowman has said. Add in climate change, which is accelerating ecological instability.
"It is causing fire seasons to start earlier and finish later. We are seeing more severe, more intense and longer lasting wildfires causing more loss of life and property. Fires used to be seen as local, but we should see them as part of a global-scale phenomenon."
Wildfires are a threat to our future. We need to take that threat seriously.

Determining The Minimum Safe Flow Line For A 5 Stage, 350 Hp Variable Speed Centrifugal Pump
MetadataShow full item record
An energy survey revealed that two, a main and spare, 5 stage, 3560 rpm, 350 hp, centrifugal pumps were well oversized for their application. The pumps are used to inject waste water into several disposal wells. Due to the excess capacity of these pumps, a spill back line and control valve had to be installed and used continuously to maintain a minimum safe operating flow rate. To reduce the energy consumption, a project was proposed to install a variable speed drive on one of the injection pumps and operate it at reduced speeds as required by demand. To complete the economic analysis we were asked to determine the minimum safe flow operating speed at the rated operating speed and use this information to set a minimum flow line for all potential pump speeds. This minimum flow line was used to determine if the spillback line would still be required at the reduced operating speeds. We will present our methodology for determining the minimum safe operating flow using a simple field test method and API 610 Centrifugal Pump Standard vibration guidelines. This methodology can be readily applied to most types of centrifugal pumps.

You may know Robert Baden-Powell was the founder of the Boy Scouts and you may consider the Scouts a para-military organization. But did you know the Scouts was formed in the crucible of the Boer War?
Baden-Powell used the Mafeking Cadet Corps (12-15 y.o. boys) to "relay messages, help out in the hospital, and act as scouts and guards," thereby freeing the outnumbered British soldiers for direct fighting.
The Mental Floss Blog has a great article on this subject called Forged in the Heat of Battle: The Origin of the Boy Scouts and here's a taste:
The siege lasted 217 days, and through it all, Baden-Powell managed the town's defenses, explored enemy territory, made cannons from scrap metal, drew sketches of his surroundings, taught the cadets woodwork and camping, and organized cricket matches on Sundays. (He achieved so much that many of his troops believed he didn't sleep.) Most impressively, he also found time to edit the pages of his book, Aids to Scouting—a guide to surviving in the wilderness that would later become the first manual for the Boy Scouts.
I found it particularly interesting that the guide that became the Boy Scout manual was originally intended for new soldiers.

"Reggie, I saw you with her! Plain and simple. You can't deny it." Archie lowered his voice to a whisper, "you had your hand up her skirt!" "Archie, chill.
Midge loves it." "But, she's Moose's girl!" Archie stopped and turned to Reggie on the sidewalk and said, "do you wanna get pummeled? Awesome babe is sharing her chaste snatch smalltits and hardcore Moose caught you two together, what do you think he'd do?
You'd get punched straight up to the moon!" Archie Andrews had walked in on his good friend Reggie Mantle and their classmate Midge Klump hooking up behind Pop's the day before. Archie knew he had to confront Reggie about it. "Archie, you'd understand if you knew what I know. She is so hot! She's worth the risk. I mean, have you seen her naked? OOoooh, Arch. She has the most luscious tits! They're huge! Not to mention that ass, mmm! And Arch, the best part is, she loves to fuck!
She gets fucking wild, moans like a whore!
Plus she loves to suck cock!" Archie's eyes grew wide and his cheeks turned red. "Reggie! You- you mean you and Midge… You and Midge have done it?
Third base? All the way?" "Sheesh Arch. You are such a doofus.
Midge and I have been going at it for years. I mean really, do you think an idiot like Moose would be able to satisfy a slut like Midge?
That boy couldn't please Midge to save his life! Dumb as a post!" "Heeh heh. True Reggie. He sure is a few bricks short of a load! But I still don't get it! How'd you get Midge to go all the way with you? Why, I'd give anything to get Veronica to round even second xx sistar bradar sex sex stories story me!
You don't suppose you could… could show me how to get a girl to go third base with me?" Reggie smirked, "You've come to the right guy! Who do you want to pop your cherry? I'd bet Midge would be willing to help us out! In fact, let's stop by her place this afternoon.
I could use a little ass, and in the mean time you can watch and maybe get a turn yourself!" "Gee Reg…" Archie stammered, "I dunno… I mean, I really like Midge and all. She's really pretty, but… round third base with her?
Plus I, I- I promised Betty I'd drive her to the library later." "Don't be a wimp Arch. Come on. Let's do this, I'm opening up a whole new world for you. Just think of how you'll be able to impress Veronica! And Cheryl Blossom!" Reggie and Archie wandered down through the neighborhood until they reached Midge Klump's street. They wandered up to her house and rang the doorbell. Midge answered the door.
She smiled a half smile at Reggie. Then looked inquisitively at Archie. "Hey Archie. Reggie? What are you doing here? Moose is coming over in a couple of hours." "Don't worry about it Midge baby! We just wanna hang out." Reggie pushed his way through the door. Archie entered and smiled at Midge nervously. Reggie grabbed Midge by the hand and pulled her to the bedroom. "Midge I've been thinking about you all day.
I want you so badly." wild delights for hot chicks groupsex reality Reggie I…" Midge was wearing a thigh-length flowy blue skirt and a tight white tank top.
Her black lacey push-up bra showed through the white fabric. "Midge!" Reggie grabbed her and kissed her passionately, slipping his tongue into her mouth and winding it around with her's. He slowly snaked his hands from her waist up to her C-cup breasts. He massaged them slowly through the fabric, then brought his head down to her chest and sucked on her left breast through the fabric.
Then he ripped the white shirt over her head, reached around and unsnapped her bra, and backed her onto the bed. "But Reggie, isn't that Archie watching?" "Relax Midge. I brought him here on purpose! I thought we could give him some pointers? Show him how to do it right!" Midge looked worried. "But Reggie, I don't know if I feel comfortable " "Oh shut the fuck up Midge and take off your panties.
I'm ready for you." Midge looked annoyed but obeyed him.
She slid her tight white panties down to her knees and Reggie roughly ripped them off the rest of the way, young hotty enjoys pussy stretch girlfriend homemade them stuck on her stilletto heels.
She reached down to take off the shoes, but Reggie stopped her. "Leave them on, you look hot in them." Then Reggie pulled off his own t-shirt and took off his pants. He pulled his dick out of his boxers. Then he pushed Midge down on her knees and shoved his dick in her face. "Suck it good you dirty slut." "Oh yeah baby, give me your huge cock." Midge grabbed his cock in one hand, and opened her mouth around the head.
She sucked it in slowly. Then she licked it from base to tip. The whole time, Archie was sitting in a chair completely silent. He was speechless. First of all at how flawless Midge looked naked, and second of all how shamefully Reggie treated Midge. As if he didn't care about her at all. But Archie had to admit to himself, he was getting kind of hot. Prickly almost. He unbuttoned his shirt a bit. He was still uncomfortable and he realized his pants had begun to form a tent.
He unbuttoned his pants. Meanwhile Reggie had grown to his full eight and a half inches.
Midge sucked down on Reggie's cock. He grabbed her head she was only four inches down, and he pushed her face into his crotch. She gagged immediately on the full 8 and a half inches. Choking, Reggie held her there against his pubes. Her face turned red, and finally she relaxed her throat around his cock. He grabbed her by her short hair and yanked her throat up and down around his cock. It slid along easily once she was past her gag reflex.
Reggie sighed. "Oh yeah Bitch, that's nice. It feels so good getting my hard cock all the way down your throat.
You're a hot little slut, Midge!" Midge looked up at him, tears streaming down her face, running her mascara down. She was still being face fucked all this while. Archie sat spellbound. He didn't notice but his hand had wandered down to release his dick from the confines of his boxers. He slowly began to stroke himself.
Up and down, up and down. Reggie yanked Midge off his cock. "I'm getting too close Midge. Lay across the bed and stretch your legs as wide apart as you can!" Midge pulled her legs into the splits while on her back.
"Further Midge!" Reggie pushed her legs back even further. Then he stuck his face into her smooth pink pussy. "Mmmm, I love that you shave your pussy baby. It's so sexy bald." He licked her inner labia. Then he sucked at her clit. He used his teeth on it gently. Then he stuck his tongue into her hole, and licked all around the rim of it, sucking up her juices. He returned his attention to her clitoris.
Humming softly around it, then sucking it, then teething at it, then sucking again. Midge was clearly approaching orgasm. She'd begun to moan wildly.
Then Reggie stopped and all at once put his cock to her hole and Rammed it up her pussy! Midge screamed in pain and pleasure as Reggie filled her up completely! "AAAAAHHHHHHHHH REEEGGGGIIEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
FUUUUUUCKK MEeeeee!!!! You son of a bitch, that hurt like crazy!" Reggie just grinned and started pumping in and out of her. Archie meanwhile pumped harder and harder at his own dick.
Midge writhed around on the mattress while Reggie humped roughly into her. She was a moaner. Her moans grew louder and louder, until suddenly she screamed out loud! She bit her hand as she screamed to muffle it. She contracted and throbbed around his cock. Reggie felt her tighten around him, and it was the final straw for him. He suddenly pulled out and pumped his seed all over her body. First he sprayed onto her pussy, his hot white sperm covering her bald pussy.
Then across her tits and a little onto her mouth. The third spray went all over her face, into her eyes and her hair. She jumped up and sucked his cock into her mouth, trying to lap up the remainder of the semen, sucking it down and swallowing it. At that moment Archie blew his load moaning out loud. Reggie and Midge both turned toward him (having forgotten about him earlier).
Then Reggie pushed Midge at Archie, and she ran and kneeled down before Archie. "Pump it anywhere you want Archie!" Yelled Reggie. Archie wasn't about to say no to an offer like that. He pointed his cock at Midge's face and spurted away. He had so much sperm, that by the end you could barely recognize Midge.
Archie grinned at Reggie. "That was great Reg!" "Oh please Arch. That was nothing. When you're ready, you can fuck madlin gets her muff licked and drilled creampie brunette yourself!"

For most of its history, the telecommunications industry has been dominated by a handful of large companies. The cost of laying wires, setting up antennas, signing up customers and getting government licenses makes it hard for new players to get into a business dominated by former monopolies with deep pockets.
The wireless business is one of the few parts of the industry that has experienced sustained competition in the last two decades. But it is not as competitive as it once was. Thanks to a series of mergers, the number of national cellphone companies has fallen to four, from six as recently as 2003. Of those businesses, the two largest — AT&T and Verizon — are descendants of the former Ma Bell monopoly. Those companies together had 220 million subscribers at the end of March, compared with 103 million for their smaller competitors, Sprint and T-Mobile.
In recent years regulators have tried to keep the industry from becoming even less competitive. In 2011, they successfully blocked AT&T's proposed acquisition of T-Mobile. Now, as the Federal Communications Commission prepares to auction more wireless frequencies to cellphone companies, Tom Wheeler, the chairman, has made a smart proposal that would make sure AT&T and Verizon do not walk away with all of the licenses available.
The government licenses the use of certain wireless frequencies, also known as spectrum, to radio and TV stations and cellphone companies. Next year, the F.C.C. will make more spectrum available to cellphone companies after broadcasters relinquish some of the frequencies they no longer want. (How much spectrum is auctioned will depend on how many broadcasters return their licenses.)
On Thursday, the F.C.C. will vote on a modest provision that would reserve some of the spectrum for cellphone companies that do not control a significant number of similar frequencies. Spectrum would be reserved only if the bidding reached a certain price threshold, which would be determined at a later date. The policy would most directly benefit Sprint, T-Mobile and rural carriers. But AT&T and Verizon, which control the best wireless frequencies in the country, would be able to bid on reserved spectrum in places where they did not control more than one-third of similar frequencies.
AT&T and Verizon argue that the F.C.C. will be overstepping its authority and will be picking winners and losers if it goes forward with this plan. But in fact no more than 30 megahertz of spectrum, a relatively small amount, will be reserved in any geographic area. Congress gave the commission the power to create rules to promote competition in the wireless business. A 2012 law that deals with auctions conducted by the agency authorizes the F.C.C. to carry out rules "concerning spectrum aggregation that promote competition."
Still, it would be foolish to think that reserving a small amount of spectrum would be sufficient to ensure that the wireless business remains competitive. As in other network-based industries with high barriers to entry, big cellphone companies have inherent advantages over smaller ones. For example, they can demand better prices from technology suppliers and can afford to spend more money on their networks, all of which allows them to attract more customers and become even more profitable.
Having allowed the industry to consolidate so much already, regulators must treat future corporate deals with great skepticism. Consumers need more choices; at the very least, the F.C.C. should be working to preserve the choices they still have.

Shirley has been my cutting my hair for many years. During that time, her creativity, friendly, down-to- earth approach and the quality of her work have ensured I will keep going back to her again and again obviously! My wife hires Shirley as a hair stylist as well and says no one can get her hair to look fabulous the way Shirley can. Her portfolio of custom makeup, wedding and even Halloween makeovers express her extreme talents. If you are looking for the perfectly talented Hair Stylist, I would completely recommend Shirley! I promise you will capture many new compliments.
Howard B.
Thank you for the outstanding cut you always give my hair! My hair is short and needs a precision cut, and you always do a great job. I come out of your salon feeling like a new person. Thank you also for being so friendly and flexible! Your new salon, Southern Charm, is lovely.
Sue M.
Shirley is the BEST! She wants to please you. She likes it when you bring a picture of what you want. The shop is lovely and peaceful and, of course, Shirley herself is lovely to look at!
Marie C.
I enjoy bragging to all of Shirley's clients that she has been my hair stylist longest of anyone. Shirley was my hair stylist even before she had her license, as a cosmetology student. Over the years, she has kept me looking my best. I consistently get compliments on my haircut. She is an expert with color. Everyone thinks my highlights are natural. But there's more! At one appt she told me I have the coloring of a redhead and to think about making a change. A few months later I took the plunge and my life has been a party ever since! No matter where I go everyone compliments me on my hair color and how natural it looks! I've realized redheads have more fun! Shirley is talented, professional, kind and courteous. I have sent many of my friends to her and they are all loyal clients. I pass her contact info out to anyone who compliments my hair and many have become her clients. You will be greeted with her southern hospitality and charm, walking out looking fabulous, and you may even have a bit of a southern accent! ;-)
Becky C.
The best haircuts and coloring I've EVER had! I moved to Florida and have not found one hairdresser that tops the quality of work! When I visit Virginia I make sure to get my hair done while I am there, she's just the BEST!
Marrissa B.
Shirley has been cutting and styling my hair for years. I've moved three hours from Fairfax but I still go to my marvelous Shirley. She is so talented, flexible and fun to be around. She works very hard to please her customers. I can not tell you how many times I have been stopped by strangers to ask me where I have my hair cut. I tell them Shirley at Southern Charm cuts my hair!
Sarita L.
You can count on Shirley to be professional and caring. After years of her services I highly recommend her! Most sincerely,

Automation is one of the most divisive subjects in business right now. Will machines really replace people in many of the roles we occupy in the workplace today? If so, what will become of the redundant staff— garbage heap or bigger and better things? Within the context of workforce management, will HR technology lead to full workforce automation?
Already we're seeing many company departments turning their attention to technology as a means to reduce workloads and streamline. Efficiency being the ultimate goal. But can we really envisage a time when things are 100% run by software when a team traditionally relies on human interaction, empathy and initiative in order to complete day-to-day tasks?
Human Resources is one area where these questions particularly resonate due to the responsibilities the job entails. Plenty of admin, of course, but ultimately a great HR professional needs to know not just the legalities, but also the ethical implications and personal situations of staff they are dealing with. Empathy is vital. All of which raises the ultimate question; will HR technology ever make HR departments obsolete?
"I believe that successful HR Departments are those that have used deep understanding of their staff to create efficient, technology-enabled processes that actually help their staff to do their jobs," explains Ed Hinschen, CEO of Roubler. "Having great systems and processes in place is only one piece of the puzzle - understanding your staff and ensuring your HR department is focused on supporting them, regardless of whether the issue is administrative or not, is what counts."
That certainly defines the situation, in 2019. However, according to the website Big Think, we live in an era when technology— or at least computer processing speed— is doubling roughly every 18 months. If that logic applies not just to fundamental hardware, but also software and computer learning, then surely there will come a time when HR technology will be capable of thinking and acting in the same way as humans themselves?
"I do see a time, very soon, where all administrative and transaction-based procedures are automated so that Human Resources can focus their efforts on more tangible outcomes for staff and business," says Hinschen, before explaining that this would still likely involve some limitations.
"There will always be functions that require human interaction that can't be automated - mediation, conflict resolution, HR strategy, interviewing and recruitment, professional development planning and processing of sensitive data - so there's just no way you could, or would want to automate those. Human Resources is about 'humans' after all."
If Hinschen's perspective is correct, and the world is on the cusp of introducing full workforce automation within the most basic administrative aspects of workforce management, then can we be sure this won't bring about a new set of problems arising from handing these tasks over to machines?
"With complete automation, you do risk alienating staff in a number of ways. Firstly, those not comfortable with using technology without support can disengage and become frustrated," says Hinschen.
"Secondly, some HR technology isn't great (yet!) at dealing with exceptions to rules so some staff might feel like their circumstances aren't being taken into account. It comes down to communication: HR and staff need to be made aware from the start that it's not about putting a barrier between HR and staff, it's about making life at work easier, more efficient and more effective."
Ultimately, then, we are standing on the edge of a tomorrow in which we will see increasing amounts of tasks taken off our to-do lists. Having said that, all that separates people from computers right now, whether we are talking about HR technology or any other area of automation, is likely to become more pronounced, rather than less, as artificial helping hands become more involved in the workplace.

Depression and Anxiety on the Rise
Depression has become one of the prevalent problems in the world today and is becoming a major killer as well. It's staggering that 15% of depressed people will commit suicide, and that statistic is so sad and so unnecessary. Depressive disorders affect approximately 18.8 million American adults or about 9.5% of the U.S. population age 18 and older in any given year. This includes major depressive disorder, dysthymic disorder, and bipolar disorder–all of which can be effectively treated by properly-trained professionals.

Three Christmas revellers killed in accident
Sambalpur: Three Christmas revellers were crushed under a truck when the motorbike they were riding rammed against the vehicle near Ainthapalli on a state highway in Sambalpur district today, police said. The victims belonged to Pitapalli village under Ainthapalli police station and were identified as Loka Munda (21), Adi Munda (21) and Adinyas Baba (22), they said
In another mishap, at least 12 passengers of a bus were injured, one of them seriously, when the vehicle rolled down a road near Sirol under Titlagarh police station of Bolangir district, police said.
The Titlagarh bound bus from Khariar was carrying 45 people when it hit a tree apparently due to poor visibility caused by fog and then jumped off the road at least three to four times. The seriously injured was shifted to the district headquarters hospital at Bolangir while others being treated at a hospital at Titlagarh. said.
