The Royston Crow's edition of 18th May 1906 reported on the proposal to be discussed at the local council.
The business agenda at the annual meeting of the Royston Urban District Council on Monday. The item in the agenda which will probably interest Roystonians most is the intimation that the National Refuges for Homeless and Destitute Children are contemplating the erection of a Home on the Barkway Road. It is not surprising that such Institutions should seek a healthy bracing air for their protégés, and in the neighbourhood of Royston they will certainly find it.

A year later in 1907 a local builder, Messrs Jacklin and Co., obtained the contract to build the home. The price was set at £6,435.
Situated in a commanding position on the elevated ground between the Barkway Hill and the Stile plantation, the Home afforded a magnificent view of the surrounding country across the vale of West Cambridgeshire into Bedfordshire and Huntingdonshire in front, and across the hills of the Heath to the left, while it overlooks the town below. The accommodation was for 60 pupils.
The building was completed in 1908 with the first group of 45 schoolgirls arriving in July that year.
Set in five and a half acres and of red brick, with tiled roofs, it allowed the following accommodation.
On the ground floor -
Two class rooms and day room, so arranged that they can be thrown into one large hall, about 65ft. by 20ft., for addresses, social functions, etc.
Dining-hall, with tables to seat family parties of eight, with a matron at the head of each table.
Sewing-room, a quiet room, lavatories, a kitchen, scullery, a larder, and ample stores.
On the upper floor -
Five dormitories to contain 11 to 14 beds each, with an assistant's room adjoining and overlooking each dormitory.
The matron's bedroom is in the centre, and speaking (through?) to communicate with each of the assistants' rooms.
Two lavatories and bathrooms, hot linen store, and cupboards.
There is an infirmary for eight beds, with its own ward, scullery and bathroom, and this can be entirely isolated from the main building. The out-houses from the main building comprise a well-equipped laundry.
In the 1911 census Florence Beatrice Kempster was recorded as an employee of the school.

The formal opening took place on Friday, 13th November. With the first Christmas fast approaching, the local community had arranged and collected gifts for the little girls at the school.
Its first Matron, Miss Hendrie took the opportunity to publicly thank -
"All the numerous friends' who so kindly contributed to the children's enjoyment at Christmas. In the hurry of preparation for so large a family, one is apt to overlook a personal acknowledgment of gifts received; if this should be the case, will friends kindly accept this in lieu. Miss Hendrie was much gratified by the noble response to the appeal in the "local paper" of a few weeks ago, for toys, fruit, etc., for the 60 little ones of her family, and trusts it is an earnest of future Christmases."
The girls at the school were encouraged to take part in the Royston community and in 1910, under the matronship of Miss Hughes they took part in a programme which was reported in the Royston Crow on Friday, 14th October.
"National Refuge for Homeless and Destitute Children.
"The Society purpose holding a meeting the Town Hall on Tuesday, Nov 8th, when the programme will include a cantata by the children from the Society's Home on the Barkway Road; bugle calls and hornpipe dances by from boys the Society's training ship, Arethusa, and short address by one of the secretaries, illustrated with lime-light views. Mr. D. A. Bevan, J.P., is expected to take the chair and he will be supported by Mr. A. R. Fordham."

It was during the First World War that an Australian soldier, Corporal W J Farrell of the 55th Battalion, Australian Imperial Forces convalescing at the auxiliary hospital in Queens Road, visited the site of the school and wrote this tribute:
"I had great pleasure in looking over the home, and finding out for myself the conditions under which the children live, and I may say that I never saw such a well kept home in all my visits to such institutions in Australia, and I have visited many. One thing especially that strikes one is the cleanliness of the buildings and surrounding grounds, each ward has from twelve to sixteen beds and opens out into a fire proof staircase.
"The wards are kept scrupulously clean, each child makes her own bed, and assists, if big enough, to keep the wards clean. They are not alone at night, as an adult nurse always is in a room adjoining with a window overlooking each ward. On visiting the schoolrooms, the children all rose and together and said "Good Morning", a courteous greeting never taught in homes in Australia.
"They sang different songs, and I was much struck with their beautiful voices. Altogether they are happy little band. Anyone who has visited homes in Australia and has visited this home in Royston will agree with me that there is no comparison. I wish the home all the success it undoubtedly deserves."
During the First World War women proved themselves as employees in other occupations. As a result the need to train for domestic service declined and, with the lack of admissions, the School for Little Girls had to close. It reopened in 1929 and was to become known locally as the Shaftesbury School for Boys.
Finally closing on the 31st July 1993, the land was sold for development of new homes in what is now Limekiln Close.

LOS ANGELES and TRUMBULL COUNTY – INDIEV, Inc. ("INDIEV") and Hon Hai Technology Group ("Foxconn") (TWSE: 2317) today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), paving the way for Foxconn Ohio to manufacture the first INDI One prototype vehicles.
Regarding the partnership, INDIEV founder and CEO Shi Hai said, "The INDI One is a unique vehicle and it demands the highest quality of automotive craftsmanship as well as consumer electronics manufacturing and engineering. Partnering with Foxconn, the world's leader in consumer electronics, during this exciting time in their entry into electric vehicles means that INDI One drivers will lead the way into the future of personal transit."
"Our MOU with INDIEV marks the beginning of many more discussions to come regarding the future of EV manufacturing in Ohio. Throughout this process, Foxconn is confident in its Ohio workforce to manufacture quality prototypes that will help INDIEV achieve future success," said Foxconn Chief Product Officer Jerry Hsiao. Details of the potential collaboration, beyond the prototype build, will be disclosed later as both sides remain in negotiation.
Foxconn assumed manufacturing operations at its Ohio facility after completing an Asset Purchase Agreement ("APA") with Lordstown Motors Corp. (Nasdaq: "RIDE") in May 2022. At present, the electric pickup truck production line in the facility has entered commercial production, and the tractor vehicle production line is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2023. This MOU is the newest electric vehicle manufacturing opportunity confirmed for Foxconn following the closing of the APA, with the binding provision to build the INDI One prototype vehicles at Foxconn Ohio. This MOU also serves as the first step toward delivering vehicles to customers for INDIEV, which began the development of the INDI One in 2017, and revealed the vehicle publicly in October of 2021.

On Tuesday, legal advocates for reproductive rights filed lawsuits on behalf of multiple women and medical professionals against three states that have passed abortion restrictions since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year.
Three lawsuits in Idaho, Tennessee, and Oklahoma name eight women, four OB-GYNs, and an Idaho medical institution. The plaintiffs' attorney, the Center for Reproductive Rights, claims that despite having serious pregnancy complications, the eight women were denied access to abortion services.
State abortion regulations, according to two cases filed in Tennessee and Idaho, jeopardize the lives and health of expectant women in addition to impeding doctors' ability to practice medicine morally. The lawsuits ask state courts to halt their anti-abortion legislation and to explain its "medical emergency" exceptions.
The Center for Reproductive Rights stated in a news release that "the unclear language and non-medical terminology in these bans have left doctors uncertain when they are legally able to provide abortion care." It isn't clear how ill or close to death a patient must be for a doctor to step in.
A woman in Oklahoma is suing the Oklahoma Children's Hospital in court. When Jaci Statton learned that her pregnancy was not viable, her doctor urged her to get an abortion. According to Statton's complaint, the hospital turned her away from their emergency room despite knowing that the pregnancy was fatal without treatment, in violation of the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA). Hospitals with emergency rooms are mandated by EMTALA to treat people who are experiencing medical crises.
The legal challenges on Tuesday are a response to a comparable case that the Center for Reproductive Rights brought earlier this year in Texas.
A judge recently determined that Texas's abortion restriction was too harsh after 15 plaintiffs in all asked for clarification on the medical exemptions in the state's abortion statute. Officials from Texas, however, challenged the decision, putting the injunction on hold.
Nancy Northup, president and chief executive of the Center for Reproductive Rights, said in a statement: "The Supreme Court's unjustified reversal of Roe v. Wade has repeatedly resulted, in multiple states, in women being denied abortion care when they face serious complications in their pregnancies." No one should have to wait until they are close to death to obtain life-saving medical attention, yet that is exactly what happens when doctors are compelled to practice under the threat of punishment.
"Abortion bans across the nation are exposing pregnant people to risks of death, illness, and injury, including loss of fertility," continued Northup. "The women who are standing up here today survived, but it is only a matter of time before someone does not."
Dr. Emily Corrigan has observed doctors being compelled to leave Idaho and work in other states since it is illegal to conduct or attempt to perform an abortion there.
Corrigan said that the state's hospitals frequently receive people who have been refused access to emergency medical care as a result of Idaho's abortion statute. She continued by saying that numerous people must also travel "hundreds of miles out of state" in order to have the surgery.
In a statement, Corrigan stated, "I have cared for thousands of expectant patients over the course of my 16-year career as an OB/GYN and routinely treat patients with pregnancy difficulties, including by providing abortion treatment. But because Idaho's regulations are so broadly worded, it's impossible to say whether I can continue to deliver the same level of care I did before without risking harsh penalties.
Jennifer Adkins, another plaintiff from Idaho, claimed that she was expecting her second child when an ultrasound showed that her unborn child had issues with a high mortality rate and that it was probably not possible for her to carry the pregnancy.
Doctors warned Adkins that if she didn't miscarry, she would likely experience life-threatening illnesses as a result of the baby's diagnosis.
Adkins had to travel to Portland, Oregon, in order to access abortion care due to Idaho's restrictive abortion regulations. She could only make the choice after receiving funding from two abortion funds.
"When I found out that my baby was not expected to live and that my life was in jeopardy, it was devastating… Adkins stated in a statement, "But the fact that I couldn't get the abortion care I desperately needed in Idaho merely added to our sorrow. "We struggled to raise the money to travel for an abortion. No one is deserving of this suffering.
One of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit against the state of Tennessee, Nicole Blackmon, claimed she was overjoyed to learn she was expecting in the summer of 2022, only months after her 14-year-old son was fatally shot in a drive-by shooting.
Blackmon, however, was dealing with chronic health issues in addition to melancholy and anxiety brought on by the recent death of her son. The baby would probably not survive since several of its major organs were developing outside of its body, according to a 15-week ultrasound.
Due to Tennessee's immediate prohibition on abortions following the Roe decision and the fact that Blackmon could not afford to go outside of the state for the procedure, Blackmon was unable to have an abortion. She gave birth to a stillborn child at 31 weeks.
Blackmon stated in a statement, "I was forced to carry a baby for months that was never going to live because of the state's cruel laws." "I was sentenced to suffer mental and bodily anguish while also knowing that I would give birth to a stillborn child.

Latest Findings Show Number of Addicts in America Doubled in Recent Years
According to the latest National Survey on Drug Use and Health, about 16.5% of people aged 12 or older in the U.S. in 2021 (46.3 million people) met the criteria for addiction and needed substance use treatment. This is significant news because, in years prior, the reported figure for addicted Americans was closer to 19 to 21 million people.
Drug Use and Addiction: The Financial Burden to Communities and Individuals
Anyone who has loved an addicted person knows: Addiction comes with enormous costs. Some of these costs are emotional and mental. The addicted person suffers from the overwhelming compulsion to use drugs and the physical sickness and deterioration that accompanies the use of alcohol and drugs like heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine.
When It Comes to Addiction, the Words We Say, Matter
Words have power; they can inspire and heal, or they can hurt and destroy, so let's chose our words wisely.
Recession, Poverty, and Substance Abuse Leads to a Drop in Life Expectancy in Great Britain
A headline in the New York Times reads, "Shortchanged: Why British Life Expectancy Has Stalled." With just a glance at the headline, I was hit with a wave of deja vu. Then I remembered I'd written about this subject before, except in the context of American lifespan stalling and receding.
Deaths from Drugs, Alcohol, and Suicide at All-Time Highs
Dying is just a part of the life cycle. But the circumstances under which people die can be significant, especially when avoidable. Death rates from drugs, alcohol, and suicide are at all-time highs. These death rates are higher than they ever have been since recording for such deaths began in 1999.
Addiction in the World
When we examine drug and alcohol addiction as a severe humanitarian crisis, the first place we're going to look is within our own families. We'll check close to home, as this is the area that impacts our lives the most.
Why Are Some Addictions Taken More Seriously Than Others?
The subject of drug and alcohol addiction is riddled with stereotypes and stigma. Our negative view of addiction and addicts is actually a big part of the reason as to why we have such a terrible drug problem. We refuse to confront this problem as the health crisis that it is.
The Mechanics of Opioid Addiction
"The opioid epidemic." We hear this line on the news, on social media, in discussions within our communities, and so on. It is a well-known fact at this point that the United States is struggling with an opioid epidemic.
The Need to Humanize Addiction
When we look at significant illnesses like cancer, diabetes, MS, heart conditions, dementia, Alzheimer's, and so on, our hearts go out to those who struggle with such illnesses. We feel strongly for them and for the struggles they inevitably face.
What Are the Most Addictive Drugs in the World?
It's no small task to measure the addiction potential of a substance. But researchers still put in the effort do this in order to furnish us with valuable information about different drugs. That information can help us greatly in addressing the drug crisis that our nation is mired in.

Netflix is developing 'Altered Carbon' and 'Pacific Rim' animes so maybe we can have nice things
I love the Takeshi Kovacs novels. However, I fucking hated the Netflix adaptation of Altered Carbon. Man, I hated it so fucking much. But, hope blooms eternal. 'Cause they're developing an anime based off of it, and I got high hopes. Oh, and a Pacific Rim anime is coming too!

'Altered Carbon' Trailer: Netflix's cyberpunk adaptation drops February 2, 2018
Altered Carbon is one of my favorite books of all time, and I've been equal parts terrified and excited about Netflix's forthcoming adaptation. However, I'm completely fucking stoked after watching this trailer.
Joel Kinnaman cast as lead in 'Altered Carbon' adaptation for Netflix
A big question regarding the upcoming Altered Carbon adaptation for Netflix: how are they going to handle a series where the main character is constantly switching bodies (or as they're called, sleeves)? I'm not sure. Especially if they go big name with the initial casting, which they have (sort of) done, casting Joel Kinnaman as Kovacs.
(Fave) Cyberpunk novel 'Altered Carbon' is becoming Netflix series
Holy fuck. Altered Carbon is one of my favorite novels of the last…ten years? Cyberpunk detective noir? (Which may be redundant?) And now it appears that the novel is becoming a television series courtesy of Netflix.
Monday Morning Commute: Ravioli Sauce & Used Diapers
…I can relate, man. Or how about fifteen slices of pizza on a Friday night? Or two pounds of Laffy Taffy while refreshing Tumblr for nine hours on a Saturday evening? None happened this previous weekend, all of happened at one point in my life. This isn't about shaming, though. It's about coming together as a bunch of flesh-sacks trying to make it on this Blue Marble. This isn't about wallowing. It's about embracing the absurdity, the rot, the excess, the loneliness, the glee, the victory, the defeat.
This is Monday Morning Commute.
Opinions Vary: MAKE MINE CYBERPUNK
As a member of the OL Collective, you no doubt traipse about in generated worlds. While the best of these worlds are well-distinguished from one another, they can be sliced into distinct categories. There are Utopian worlds, worlds filled with magic, worlds filled with superheroes, and other worlds filled with dragons. In fact, some are Utopian worlds filled with superheroes wielding magic and thrashing dragons. Mix-and-match. Whatever. And so on.
However, I reckon that we all have our favorite slice of the generated-world nonsense that comes from enjoying the arts and farts. So I'll ask you gals and guys: what is your favorite kind of fictional world? And does it come from a specific source?
Me? My favorite are there them cyberpunk dystopias, specifically that of Richard K. Morgan's Altered Carbon and its sequels.
Playboy and Virgin Want to Build A Night Club IN SPACE.
Now I don't go to night clubs, but this is one I'd kill to attend. A night club in space. This is something out of Neuromancer or Altered Carbon, and that gets my loins writhing.

Richard K. Morgan's Altered Carbon is one of my favorite books. Ever. The spiritual successor to Neuromancer with a whole lot more fucking, it milked my cyberpunk glands with capable hands. I've known that it was getting a movie adaptation for a while now (Morgan actually sold the rights to the book for $1 million, which enabled him to become a full-time writer. Good for him, man) but now its getting fast-tracked.
Monday Morning Commute: DESTROY APATHY!
Spark a cigarette and pour a drink – you've made it home after the first day of the workweek! Congratulations! You've only got to get through that 9-5 shitstorm four more times until the weekend! And from there it's only a few more decades before you either retire into poverty or die! Ta-dah!

Every casino incentive is bound by policies or has limitations of some kind. Many of all, from my point of view, you need to take notice of the turnover demands, that is, the number of times you need to transform the incentive quantity before you can withdraw your profits. However, you can likewise discover casinos without turnover demands. You can discover nearly any kind of sporting activities betting you can visualize someplace in the Silver State.

Maintain analysis, and also, you will certainly have the ability to choose the best online supplier website for you in no time at all! I would love to reveal the necessary benefits and drawbacks they need to bear in mind when picking a gambling site deal without a down payment.
Given that you do not need to transfer any kind of actual cash, you do not have that much to shed, as well as in my point of view; the pros surpass the disadvantages. Of program, not every 188.8.131.52 little thing is glowing with a no down payment benefit either; there are advantages and disadvantages. Nonetheless, no down payment benefit for gamers from Canada can still have turnover needs comparable to a conventional welcome perk. The casinos established these problems to stay clear of bonus offer misuse. Likewise, it is important to check out the terms, as well as problems as well as turnover, needs well before you pick a deal. 1000 CAD, as well as 500 free, rotates; this seems appealing; however, before you occupy such a deal, you must constantly check out the terms initially. Nonetheless, there are excellent deals for every single gamer's heart, from cash to cost-free rotates, cashback, and also extra.
Numerous casino players search for a free deal when you do not need to down actual payment cash and still reach wager for actual cash. Decreasing restrictions – for instance, from 100 euros down payment restriction monthly to 50 euros – is instantly feasible, as it would certainly lower the danger with it. There are several internet pc gaming websites without down payment bonus offers. What are the various kinds of no down payment casino benefits? The overall sector deserved $50 billion in 2019 and is anticipated to expand at an 11.5% CAGR by 2027. In the UK, selecting gambling will certainly enable individuals to put wagers on prospects, while lotto game wagering is lawful in the UK. Listed below, I will certainly detail and describe the various casino deals.

This has been discussed before. I think that the network should have a difficulty adjustment mechanism in case no new blocks are solved for -- say one day.
However, probably this is not that large of a risk, as there are many different pools, and setting one up is not that hard. Look at pirate bay. Their servers were seized, and how many days of down time did they have? I think the current pools are already seeing DDOS attacks quite regularly, and they still manage to keep going with minimal down time. One could also think of hiding pools with Tor.

Coffin carrying body of slain Pakistani student killed in Texas school mass shooting arrives home
The body of 17-year-old Pakistani exchange student Sabika Sheikh, who was killed in a mass shooting at Texas high school, arrived home for funeral in Pakistan's southern city of Karachi early on Wednesday (May 23).
Sheikh was killed with eight students and two teachers when a gunman attacked Santa Fe High School in Santa Fe, Texas. Students said the teenaged boy charged with fatally shooting 10 people, Dimitrios Pagourtzis, opened fire in an art class shortly before 8 a.m. on Friday (May 18).
A Turkish airliner, brought the coffin of Sheikh from Texas and was received by family members and officials of the U.S. Consulate at the airport, local media reported.
The body was transported to her residence, where bereaved family and mourning relatives were present. Her father, Aziz Sheikh, and her uncle Abdul Jaleel Sheikh accompanied the body from the airport to the residence in the ambulance.
Sabika was part of the YES exchange program funded by the U.S. State Department, which provides scholarships for students from countries with significant Muslim populations to spend an academic year in the United States. She had been due to return to Pakistan on June 9, at the end of the school year.

The psychology behind shapes and colors
So, how does this work?
Rob Postema
Design influences the way we perceive the world, the way we feel and the choices we make. Design is an act of communication, often tailored to the receiver's psyche, culture and background.
For centuries people have been using shapes, colors, typography and compositions to create stories, architecture, prints, products, identities and experiences that have influenced and defined cultures around the globe. Shapes, objects, colors and typefaces speak to us in several ways.
We can see symbolism and meaning by our associations and personal experiences, because of its context, but also on a subconscious level.
To communicate to your target audience effectively as a designer, having knowledge of the psychological principles of human behavior can be very helpful.
I've been a visual designer for a number of years now. As a designer that mostly designs websites, apps and other online services, accessibility and usability are very important.
For example, it's essential that I make sure there is enough contrast on the buttons and that I use elements and layouts that the target audience is comfortable with.
But my fascination with design lies in another area of my craft: Using shapes, colors, typefaces, compositions and symbolism to influence the way the end-users feel about a certain company or product. Today I would like to focus on the first two: Shapes and colors.
So, how does this work?
Our brains are hardwired to derive meaning from shapes, which have a bigger impact on our subconscious than you might think! Shapes have associations that can be used by a designer to set the mood and visualize a backstory.
For example, shapes can be applied to typefaces, cartoon characters, compositions and logos.
Triangles can be perceived as being edgy, defiant, powerful and having a purpose. The evil character in a cartoon, for example, will usually be built up by triangles.
They will have pointy noses and sharp edges. Because of these characteristics, your brain will interpret this character to be powerful, edgy, mischievous, and a troublemaker.
Triangle shapes in typography can have an aggressive look & feel, because of their sharp angles. You can also associate triangles as a symbol for the great pyramids, which portray power and wealth. Companies that want to portray masculinity and stability often use this shape in their logo.
Circles can be associated with being friendly and non-threatening. In a cartoon, the friendly characters are usually built up by circular shapes. A circle has no beginning or end and it has no edges. Curves in general are seen as more feminine compared to their sharp-angled cousins.
You can also associate circles and spheres with the world we live in or the circle of life. In this sense, they can symbolize community and unity. Circular shapes and rounded corners in typefaces can make a text feel fun and friendly.
Companies often use circular shapes in their logo to portray a feeling of security, continuity, and protection.
Squares and rectangles, mainly because of their sturdy, solid appearance and symmetry can be associated as being strong, stable, balanced, professional and efficient. Because of these associations, superheroes and powerful characters in cartoons are often built up by square shapes.
Companies that want to be seen as professional and reliable will often use this shape in their logo or use a typeface with these characteristics in their brand guide.
Personalities of shapes and colors
Even the direction of lines can make an impact on your perception. Horizontal lines can come across as calm and progressive, and having a sense of community. They can symbolize a horizon or progress, which conveys a feeling of rest and tranquility.
Vertical lines, on the other hand, are more often associated with strength, height, aggression and masculinity. Diagonal lines can be symbolic for decline or progress.
Colors have an enormous impact on us. Colors can make a design look and feel cheap, expensive, homemade, natural or exciting. But colors don't only affect us psychologically, also physically.
They can be used to stimulate our appetite, make us calm, agitate us, they can even raise our blood pressure! The meaning of a color can be learned or be biologically innate and can vary depending on the color's shade, tint and hue.
But contrary to popular belief, independent colors do not have one symbolic meaning.
For example: it's easy to conclude that a red button is associated with negative feelings and a green button with positive ones.
But it's not as simple as that. Yes, we all consciously and subconsciously derive meaning from certain colors, but how these colors affect us depends on numerous factors. The meaning we derive from colors depends on our age, gender and circumstances.
It also differs widely from culture to culture and often stems from religion, spirituality, social environment and historical events.
The color red for example. Seeing the color red can stimulate your appetite. It's no coincidence that most fast food restaurants use the color red in their brand identity. Studies have shown that being surrounded by the color red can have a stimulating effect on our body.
It can even influence our breathing pattern, pulse, blood pressure and muscle tension. If we are overstimulated, we can become agitated and aggressive. If you have no stimulating colors around you, it can have the reverse effect.
Being in a completely white environment for longer periods of time can lead to anxiety, sleeplessness and nervousness. In western culture red is known for warmth, energy, passion and love.
But also, for warnings and negativity. But coming back to symbolism and historic events, in Russia people will be reminded of communism and revolution. In Asian countries, brides usually wear red on their wedding day, because here the color is symbolic for happiness and prosperity.
The color green can be associated with finance, ambition, envy and greed. But also, with nature, fertility and harmony. By being surrounded by too much green, a person can become lazy, moody and depressed. On the other hand, not enough green can cause feelings of apathy and boredom.
Yellow-green can stand for jealousy and cowardice.
How do we use this information?
There are many textures, color schemes, typefaces and objects that people will associate with a certain mood, taste or period in time.
This powerful tool is used by designers to communicate backstories and add context to designed products or services. If colors and shapes have so many meanings, and are symbolic for so many emotions, how do I know how to use them? It all depends on context: who is your audience, and what message do you want to send.
Design is all about storytelling. It's about creating an experience for the users that fits the market you are in and the strategy of a company, service or product.
Whether it is true or not, we can convince you that a product has a rich heritage, is progressive and modern, or comes from a certain region.
Because designers have the power to make a cheap product seem expensive or make a villain look trustworthy, ethics and morals come into play.
Guiding users to a certain outcome, warning them or giving them a backstory to your brand are ways of manipulation that are mostly harmless, and even beneficial.
You can argue if it's ethical to exaggerate how organic or exclusive a company or product is. But when you look at propaganda for example, it can be frightening to see that mass manipulation can have dangerous consequences.
Graphic design is very powerful. It's a fine balance between esthetics, research and strategy. A professional designer can help you create a brand your customers can trust and tell the stories that need to be told.

History stands testimony to the fact that no power on earth, no matter how cruel and barbaric that be, no matter how prolonged it may be has ever succeeded in curbing the freedom sentiments of any nation and every oppressor has a definite and tragic end if fought with unity, sincerity and dedication. Our oppressor has crossed every limit and every degree of brutality to subjugate us, said chairman All Parties Hurriyat Conference, Syed Ali Geelani, in a telephonic address to the mourners of the shaheed Zeenat-ul-Islam at Shopian today.
Syed Ali Geelani reiterated his pledge to take the movement to its logical end and will never allow any body to barter the precious blood of martyrs. We need to be aware of this and we are duty bound to safe guard their sacrifices and should desist from such activities which prove detrimental for our movement, he said.
He said that deceitful slogans of development, prosperity or material gains can never be a substitute for freedom. Pro-Indian politicians have turned into political leaches, sucking every drop of our blood to satisfy their masters in Delhi.
He said that election drama and the multi faced political stooges pose as our saviors to fetch them votes in the name of roads, electricity and water, but in reality they are the people who strengthen the unholy bond of slavery so nation as a whole should desist from any support to them.

Top Louisville Software Development and IT Consulting Company Prosoft Nearshore Launches New Website and Introduces "Number8" Brand
October 27, 2017 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Louisville, KY October 27, 2017 Louisville, Kentucky-based software development consulting firm Prosoft Nearshore has undergone a total rebrand to unveil a new name, logo and company website that supports its growth as a leading provider of software development consulting services.The new brand, Number8, better reflects the company's unique position in the broad spectrum of software development consulting services. Number8 derives its name from the fact that most of its clients use a software development methodology known as "scrum" which has short timelines and relies heavily on collaboration. Scrum takes its name from the "scrum" that occurs in a rugby game after a dead ball, when players huddle together to start play. In a scrum, each player's position is named for the role they play. Names like Hooker, Prop, Lock, and Flanker are descriptive because each player's task is clearly defined, except one. The player at the rear of the scrum has to react to the ball and has many different roles to play based on the outcome of the scrum. Because of this, his position couldn't be named by the task he performs. They just call him by the number on his jersey, Number8.
In a rugby scrum, the Number8 has to be strong, fast, versatile and very smart. Similarly, Number8 consultants are not just experienced developers; they are versatile and communicate at a high level directly with the client and with end users of the software. They're involved in design, development, testing, implementation and planning. "We have a different approach than the traditional off-site staffing model", says Number8 President, David Easterling. "Rather than having an off-site team that performs work to the specifications that are sent, our guys augment our clients' scrum teams pulling from the same queue, helping them increase velocity immediately, with very little communication overhead and no need to change existing processes."
The new Number8 website features detailed information about the company's history, services, engagement model and leadership team. This includes a "Why Number8" video that explains the reason the company chose the Number8 brand name.
Additionally, prospective Number8 software developers can also view and apply for current career opportunities.
Other features of the Number8 website include:
If you have questions about Number8, the services they offer, or employment opportunities, call Number8 directly at 502-890-7665 or complete the form located on their Contact Us page.
Number8 is a rapidly growing software development consulting firm with U.S. headquarters in Louisville, KY, and nearshore locations in Costa Rica, Honduras and Bolivia.

The Cowboys are 10.5-point favorites at home against Minnesota, with the over/under set at 47.5. The last time the Cowboys were favored by 10.5 points was in Week 13 last year, when they hosted the Eagles in a game for which the over/under at the time was set at 44.5.
In that game, the Cowboys entered the fourth quarter trailing the Eagles 24-17 before pulling away for a final score of 38-33. Will Sunday's game be an equally wild affair?
Here's what some prominent pigskin pundits foresee for the game:
Name (Cowboys accuracy) |
Pick | Score | Comment |
Michael Smith, Pro Football Talk (6-2) |
27-13 | The Cowboys' defense may be shellshocked after what Calvin Johnson did to them on Sunday, but there's no way the Vikings' terrible passing game is going to make big plays in Dallas. The Cowboys will probably only need to win eight games to win the NFC East, and they'll earn their fifth win on Sunday. | |
Peter Schrager, Foxsports (6-2) |
34-17 | The Cowboys gave up an eye-popping 623 yards of offense in Detroit last week -- the 11th most in league history -- and have now lost three different games in which they've had leads in the fourth quarter. And yet, they're on Cloud Nine compared to the Vikings. Minnesota gave up 182 yards rushing last week and the Packers scored on all but one of their drives. The Cowboys are desperate for an easy opponent after that heartbreaking Lions loss. The scheduling gods did them a favor here. | |
Don Banks, SI.com (6-2) |
34-17 | How's that Monte Kiffin hiring working out for you, Cowboys? Dallas is on pace to give up 6,760 yards, almost 1,100 yards more than the Cowboys allowed in 2012, when that total set a franchise record and helped cost Ryan his job. Now New Orleans' defensive coordinator, Ryan has helped the Saints play dramatically better after they allowed a league-record 7,042 yards last season. | |
Mike Florio, Pro Football Talk (6-2) |
35-17 | Adrian Peterson returns home to Texas to face a team that could really use him. Even without him, they have enough firepower to defeat a Vikings team that could be worse than the 3-13 edition from 2011. | |
Sam Farmer, L.A. Times (5-3) | 31-14 | The Vikings have no solid answer at quarterback, and that will haunt them all season. Despite late-game miscues, Tony Romo has mostly played well for the Cowboys, who should prevail at home. | |
Todd Archer, ESPN Dallas (5-3) | 30-23 | Nothing will come easy for the Cowboys just because that's who they are and the St. Louis Rams do not appear on the schedule again. The Cowboys have played well at home this year, and that will continue Sunday. Dez Bryant's passion will lead to two touchdown receptions and a big hug for quarterback Tony Romo. | |
The Other ESPN Guy (5-3) | 35-31 | Ben Goessling: The Vikings simply dont match up well with a team with the kind of prolific passing game the Cowboys have, especially with all the injuries Minnesota has in its secondary. Short of Adrian Peterson dazzling in his return to his native north Texas, the Vikings could be headed for 1-7. | |
Pete Prisco, CBS Sports (5-3) |
34-17 | The Vikings are struggling in a big way. The passing game is horrible, and so is the defense. The Cowboys, meanwhile, are home after two road games, including a tough loss last week at Detroit. They rebound in a big way here. Dallas rolls behind a big game by Tony Romo. | |
Elliot Harrison, NFL.com (5-3) |
30-13 |
The sky might not be falling in Dallas, but the Cowboys' fan base is certainly sick of seeing colossal failures in the late moments. A matchup against a struggling Vikings team might seem like it will be a great elixir, but at the end of the day, a Cowboys win will have proved nothing; Dallas needs to show it can close the door on a solid club. Still, in matchups like these -- particularly at home -- the Cowboys generally play well enough to get everyone talking again. Josh Freeman will probably get the call at quarterback for Minnesota, but whoever starts, the offense has to make good on vertical throws. The Vikings have completed just five passes that have traveled more than 20 yards in the air. And Greg Jennings has been a nonfactor, catching all of, well, one ball last Sunday. | |
Vinny Iyer, Sporting News (5-3) |
42-14 | Let's relax on the Cowboys. They're still 4-4 with three big division wins, so they're still in control in the NFC East. That goes for you, too, Dez Bryant. He should just be able to chillax and give the cold shoulder to the Vikings' reeling secondary with his size, strength, speed, etc. November is the money month for Tony Romo, and his warmup for the Thanksgiving feast begins here. Pretty sure the Vikings would love someone like Romo with their QB enigma | |
Greg Cote, Miami Herald (4-4) |
34-20 | I wonder. Does Dez Bryant's game preparation during the week involve yelling at people? Vikes were weighing whether to start Christian Ponder or Josh Freeman, but I doubt it matters unless Adrian Peterson — with only 150 yards during the past three games — gets untracked. Cows should get RB DeMarco Murray back and keep Purples winless on the road. Tony Romo has best November record of any QB in Super Bowl era (21-4) and should be fantasy-big against a weak secondary. |
All 11 pundits above like the Cowboys for the win, the table below summarizes a couple of other pick 'em panels where the predictions are also quite lopsided.
Rank (LW) | Site | Cowboys | Vikings | Cowboys Season Pick Accuracy |
1 (1) | Yahoosports | 2 | 0 | .812 (13-3) |
3 (2) | Pro Football Focus | 8 | 0 | .734 (47-17) |
4 (4) | USA Today | 7 | 0 | .714 (40-16) |
5 (5) | Dallas Morning News | 8 | 0 | .656 (42-22) |
6 (8) | CBSSports | 9 | 0 | .628 (44-26) |
7 (6) | Foxsports | 4 | 0 | .625 (20-12) |
8 (6) | NFL Around The League | 5 | 0 | .600 (24-16) |
9 (9) | Inside the NFL | 3 | 0 | .562 (9-7) |
Total | 60 | 0 | .682 (320-149) |
So there you have it, folks. Nobody is picking the Vikings. The Cowboys are expected to win easily and by a large margin.
Which probably just means that it's not going to be easy and it's going to be a tight game.

I don't know what kind of cadillac health insurance policy your employer in the US was able to get for you, but I'll tell ya that in the United States of America you actually have to wait 4 or 5 months to get a doctors appointment in many cities! That's just a regular appointment! I personally had to wait for over one year to get into see an OBGYN! That leaves me going to emergency rooms for every day care AND I HAVE INSURANCE! This so-called rationing already happens in the US health care system. There is nothing to romanticize about it. Plus, the facts just don't support any delusion that the US has a superior health care system. We have higher infant mortality rates, lower death rates, higher rates of serious, life-threatening illness than most all other industrialized nations. So what if people buy supplemental private insurance policies in Canada. So do Medicare recipients here! Nothing is more disturbing to me than US citizens who irrationally believe we have a better health care system. I have Canadian friends too, and they are more than satisfied. You should really check your facts - sales taxes in Chicago and NYC are around 10%. The collective tax toll on US citizens is not really that much less than other industrialized countries - yet we get less for it! Get real.

Enlarged pores are a common skin concern that affects many people. Pores are small openings on the skin's surface that release sweat and oil. When pores become clogged with oil, dirt, and dead skin cells, they can appear larger. Enlarged pores can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, age, sun damage, and hormonal changes.
One effective enlarged pores treatment in Singapore is a carbon laser peel. This non-invasive procedure uses a laser to penetrate deep into the skin, targeting the oil glands that produce excess sebum. The laser energy also stimulates collagen production, which can help to tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of pores. Carbon laser peels are fast, painless, and require no downtime, making them a popular choice for those looking to improve their skin's appearance.
In addition to carbon laser peels, there are other non-surgical treatments that can help to shrink enlarged pores. These include chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and topical treatments containing retinoids or alpha hydroxy acids. It is important to consult with a dermatologist to determine the best treatment plan for your specific skin concerns and needs.
Understanding Enlarged Pores
Enlarged pores are a common skin concern that affects people of all ages and skin types. Pores are tiny openings on the skin's surface that allow sweat and oil to escape. When these pores become clogged with dirt, oil, and dead skin cells, they can appear larger and more noticeable.
The size of pores is primarily determined by genetics, but other factors can also contribute to their appearance. High sebum secretion, decreased skin elasticity, chronic acne, hormonal differences, sun damage, smoking, radiodermatitis, and vitamin A deficiency are some of the common causes of enlarged pores.
Enlarged pores are most commonly found on the nose, forehead, and cheeks. They can make the skin look rough, dull, and uneven. People with enlarged pores may also be more prone to blackheads and whiteheads.
While there is no cure for enlarged pores, several non-surgical treatments can help reduce their appearance. These treatments work by unclogging the pores and improving skin texture and elasticity. Some of the most effective non-surgical enlarged pores treatments in Singapore include:
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use a combination of acids to exfoliate the skin and remove dead skin cells. This can help unclog pores and improve skin texture.
Microdermabrasion uses a special device to exfoliate the skin and remove dead skin cells. This can help unclog pores and improve skin texture.
Topical Retinoids
Topical retinoids are a type of vitamin A derivative that can help improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of enlarged pores.
Salicylic Acid
Salicylic acid is a type of beta-hydroxy acid that can help unclog pores and improve skin texture.
Carbon Laser Peel
Carbon laser peel is a non-invasive procedure that uses a laser to target the uppermost layer of the skin. The procedure involves the application of a carbon lotion on the skin, which is left to dry for 15 minutes. The carbon particles in the lotion penetrate deep into the pores, absorbing dirt, oil, and dead skin cells. The laser is then used to heat the carbon particles, causing them to explode and dislodge the impurities from the pores. The laser also stimulates collagen production, which helps to tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of pores.
The procedure is painless and takes about 30 minutes to complete. Patients may experience some redness and mild swelling immediately after the procedure, but this usually subsides within a few hours.
Carbon laser peel is an effective and safe treatment for enlarged pores. The procedure can help to shrink pores, reduce oil production, and improve skin texture and tone. It is also effective in treating acne, pigmentation, acne scarring, fine lines, and wrinkles.
The safety of carbon laser peel depends on the type of laser used. Pulsed lasers, such as q-switched and Nd lasers, are generally safe for all skin types. However, patients with sensitive skin may experience some redness and swelling after the procedure. It is important to choose a qualified and experienced practitioner to perform the procedure to minimize the risk of complications.
Overall, carbon laser peel is a safe and effective treatment for enlarged pores. The procedure is painless and takes only a few minutes to complete. Patients can expect to see a significant improvement in the appearance of their skin after just one treatment.

Tenth years anniversary - what should we do to celebrate?
With just 10.6% of homes to go though the digital switchover, with the final ones in Northern Ireland getting there on Wednesday, 24th October 2012, there might not be quite as much to do in the future.
However, 2013 will see the start of 4G transmissions and before this Scotland, Wales and parts of England that switched first will be having another little switchover.
It does look like there will be plenty to do in the years ahead!
So, I am now making this post to ask if anyone has any constructive suggestions as to what would make UK Free TV even better in the future.
I look forward to your comments.
All questions
In this section
Monday, 21 May 2012
You have expanded the area to cover the Republic of Ireland from just the UK.
So go International with France, Europe and the world.

John Gleeson11:37 AM
At the moment I can't think of any useful ideas, but if I do I'll let you know. I just hope that I can pass on the following comments to you.
As it's the complete digital switchover later this year when the Northern Ireland region gets converted, switched over, do you know of any plans for the BBC to do a special programme commemorating the 70 odd years of analogue TV in the UK? I find a programme like this ought to be done. I dont expect ITV to do one. Perhaps there could be a very faint glimmer of hope that CH4 could! Maybe BBC Northern Island might be the place to look, which can be received throughout the rest of the UK via satellite, as that's where it all ends.
As the BBC has decided later this year to transfer all their childrens programmes to C-Beebies & CBBC to save money, why dont all their news programmes apart from the regional news, be transfered completely to their news channel, BBC News. I dont somehow see this happening as BBC1 is seen as their flag-ship channel & must still feel that they need to compete with ITV1.
Do you know if there can be, or likely to be any regional variations on BBC2 apart from those in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland? In the past when Wimbledon has been shown on both BBC1 & BBC2 when matches involving top British players have been on, the BBC in their infinite wisdom have decided that they must be shown, moved to BBC1, their so-called flagship channel. This has often happened at around 6pm when the national news, then followed by the respective regional news is on. If this were to happen now & the news programmes be moved over to BBC2 they would not be able to broadcast the regional news programmes, except in Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland. I find it difficult to accept the BBC policy for this as for many, many years now, that people that can receive BBC1 can just as easily receive BBC2. Long gone are the days when people would have to buy converters, or another TV to watch BBC2 like in the old 405/625line days. The mind boggles.

Mark Agius: Interesting. I guess I would have to look around to source all the data. The RoI was actually reasonably straightforward.
link to this comment |
John Gleeson: Your mind should not boggle. The answer is in fact very simple indeed.
The BBC provides their services over several platforms. Let's just discount analogue for a moment as it's about to get terminated.
This leaves four digital systems:
1. Freeview - a terrestrial network of 80 main and over 1000 relay transmitters, of which the BBC runs one SD and one HD multiplex;
2. Satellite - using the Astra 2N satellite at 23.5 degrees east which supplies the free-to-air feeds for Freesat, Sky and anyone with a DVB-S/S2 satellite decoder;
3. Cable - basically Virgin Media, to which the BBC supplies the "head ends" with content;
4. Online - the BBC supplies various forms of live online viewing.
The BBC does not OWN any part of the transmission system, this was sold off years ago and resides principally with Arqiva. The satellite uplinks and network are provided by BT, the satellites are owned by SES Astra and the BBC leases capacity from them.
On Freeview, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the 15 English regions (see TV regions overview map | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice for maps) have the full ability to have "local" services.
However, on satellite, each "local" service has to be carried as a separate transmission. This means there are currently:
- 19 versions of BBC One (19 SD, 1 HD)
- 4 versions of BBC TWO (all SD)
- 1 version of BBC News
- 1 version of BBC three/CBBC (shared)
- 1 version of BBC FOUR/CBeebies (shared)
- 1 version of BBC Parlaiment
As the BBC has to provide the same service on satellite, cable, Freeview and online, the possibilities are limited by what can be afford over all systems.
So, the BBC has been moving, and is intended due to budget cuts (as per BBC Trust - Strategy ) to having *ONLY* local/regional programmes on BBC One and replacing BBC TWO's four services with a single UK one, given that it has about ten minutes a day of dedicated output.
Also to correct you, the BBC is *NOT* moving children's programmes from BBC One to *SAVE MONEY*, it is just doing what was planned all along, which is to have a dedicated under-6s and over-6s set of Children's channels. The money is ringfenced.
So, just as BBC three has replaced the a few hopurs-hours some-nights a week at 6pm BBC TWO "DEF II", with a dedicated service, CBBC and CBeebies will be there from 6am-7pm each day in every home.

May I suggest a Taskforce style section which functions in a similar way to what this website: office.espadar.com (I'm not trying to advertise my website in any way, I am just showing an example to support my suggestion).
Basically, if there was any ideas about the technical ins and outs of terrestrial transmissions and changes to the EPG on Freeview etc, instead of people posting the ideas as comments on random articles, there would be a place on your website where all the ideas would be categorized and easy to find instead of searching through the articles for individual comments.
Since your website is already immensely popular, and some Ofcom employees might have secretly read the comments on this website, they are bound to notice the Taskforce section a lot more easily.
Also on this Taskforce, people would be able to post ideas into categories and vote and comment on each other's idea submissions.
Here is the source code for creating a Taskforce: tf.zip

What I would like to see is the use of BBC3 and BBC4 to show more sport and leave BBC1 and BBC2 alone. The reason is I am not of tennis or football fan I hate them.So some of my choice of programs are Eggheads mastermind and the like.Which of course are taken off.
Ps Brian I know this is something you yourself have no conrol of it is one of my ideas
All the best
