Monday, 08 October 2012
Organisations in the New Forest running services for children and young people, including a counselling services, a youth support group and children's day care places, have been given a cash boost thanks to grants from Hampshire County Council totalling more than £18,000.
The funding is part of more than £200,000 awarded to projects countywide and agreed by Councillor Roy Perry, Hampshire County Council's Executive Lead Member for Children's Services at his recent decision day. The grants for a range of services across the county have been made from three funding streams: Children's Services Integrated Grants, Youth Support Services Grants and the New and expanding Places and Sustainability Grants for Services for Young Children.
The recipients in the New Forest are:
- Parent Link, £2,700 to help support Extended Colors, a club for young people with severe learning difficulties between the ages of 19 and 25
- It's Your Choice, £4,970, to help fund a youth counselling service
- 30 day care places in Blackfield, £10,767
The package of grants also includes more than £46,000 awarded to organisations working with children and young people in a range of countywide projects. Those projects are:
- Youth Options, £12,535 for post adoption support
- Wessex Children';s Hospice, £5,000 to provide activities and support to children whose siblings have life limiting illnesses
- Southampton Rape Crisis and Sexual Abuse Counselling Services, £14,206, to help fund a young people's counselling programme in Hampshire
- Family Lives, £5,934 to help provide a family support programme in Hampshire
- Andover and District Mencap, £8,722 to help an activity club for young people with learning disabilities and a Duke of Edinburgh award scheme
Making a real difference
Commenting Councillor Perry said:
"I am pleased that we are maintaining high levels of support to the voluntary sector to provide a range of services for children and young people.
"These grants will enable the voluntary sector to continue to develop a range of services, support, and recreational opportunities across the county to meet the needs of children, young people and their families.
"The recipients of these grants have all demonstrated that their projects make a real difference to the lives of children and young people.
"As part of the County Council's statutory role to ensure sufficient early years education provision is available in Hampshire I am pleased to agree the grants to providers to support the development and sustainability of places within pre-school and day care provision."

This ebook will challenge your status quo.
This series on hospitality has been growing inside my heart for a lifetime.
Because really, isn't it the ache of every human heart—to be known, to be loved?
You will be challenged to rethink how you live your life and how your view your 'neighbor'.
Go on a 31 day journey with me as we dig deep and discover the heart of hospitality and learn what it really means to be open and giving to others.
If you're my mother or my most loyal readers and are ready to make the purchase, you can do it, for $5, the price of a latte!
(This ebook is largely taken from material I wrote on my blog as a 31 Day series last October.
I have added content and edited the original posts to be better suited for an ebook.)
If you aren't sure it this ebook is for you, read on!
This work is born out of heartache. When we lost our house to fire 2 years ago, I wasn't sure I'd ever recover.
I sat in our driveway and watched our dreams burn to the ground.
I grieved so many things and felt loss like I'd never known.
I cried out for answers. Why us? Why this?
But our suffering isn't lost on our Father. It's only His grace in disguise.
And He will twist every heartache into joy.
While we worked hard to rebuild the bricks and mortar, He went to work on our stone hearts.
The truth is, we don't have to lose everything to feel our poverty. We sense it in the depths of our souls.
It's all just rubble. And our card houses teeter on disaster. We're all a mess, house fire or not.
We know we need someone——-someone who knows us and loves us in spite of ourselves.
That is the hospitality of scripture.
That is the warm welcome we receive from Christ himself.
Hospitality isn't about inviting people into our perfect homes, it's about inviting them into our imperfect hearts.
It's about learning to live from that vulnerable place where we open ourselves to love.
And ultimately, it's about Him—-The perfect Host who provides for everything we sinners need, right down to the best wine for the wedding feast.
This ebook is for anyone who has felt his own poverty and known the redemption of being loved anyway.
This is hospitality, on purpose.
On the practical side, we'll explore everything from how to set up a baking center in your kitchen to how to set up your guest spaces,
and even some tips on what to wear to be a well-appointed hostess.
This book includes a few of my favorite recipes and is loaded with photos. It's over 100 pages and 18,000 words long.
31 Days to a Heart of Hospitality
is my manifesto, of sorts. It will lead you into more meaningful relationships with all the people in your life, not just your occasional guests!
This ebook is the equivalent of a long chat with me on my screened porch, where I tell you a
few secrets that I've learned about welcoming people into my life,
after many years and much trial and error.
This ebook started out as a 31 Day series on my blog but I've added about 25% more content, including a chapter on Children and Hospitality, which is my favorite of the whole series.
To sample the book, you can read Day 1 here.
If you decide to purchase the book and are blessed by it, I would be so honored and humbled if you'd share the book with your friends and family
via your blogs, Facebook, Twitter, and even by good ole' fashioned word of mouth.
After many, many hours of writing, editing, cooking, writing some more and editing some more,
I'm so happy to be able to offer this to you in a printable, easily accessible version.
I hope you enjoy it!
What others are saying—
from Marie at The (Not Always) Lazy W:
" Edie's heartfelt book on hospitality is a must read. In thirty one warmly written installments, she illuminates the depth and breadth of this all-important aspect of humanity, this indispensable but often ignored chapter in homemaking. She writes with great intelligence and free flowing emotion about the purpose of hospitality. About the importance of opening our homes- our very selves- to others. They need it, and so do we. And she points to the relevance of some timeless domestic habits to our modern culture of convenience.
Her ideas sparkle with spiritual fervor. And as if that's not enough, each sub topic is drenched and enlivened with colorful, textural, enticing photos of the people and adornments of her private world, treats in which her blog followers take much delight! If you have so far regarded hospitality as an obligatory sweeping of the floor and putting out of the "good" soaps… Or, worse, if you have seen it as a chance to exalt yourself and demean others… then please treat yourself and your loved ones to this delicious little slice of grace. Southern grace, for sure, but also that lasting Grace we all crave.
Edie will reenergize your soul for loving others, and it will reinspire you to open your home."
And Laura Kooistra from Liberty Farm Chronicles
Always truthful, sometimes tough, and endlessly tender, Edie picks up her pen once again to touch the hearts of her readers. Her capacity to present fundamental big picture ideas at the same time as offering accessible practical help make her 31 Days to Hospitality series a life changing read. Most importantly perhaps, Edie doesn't offer us exhaustive "to do" lists, (although I have definitely adopted some of her suggestions), she stroke after stroke inspires and convicts me to admit my need for you, pray that you need me too, live in humility with myself first, and proceed to cultivate hospitality in my spirit before I make a single menu plan. Edie's characteristic effervescence infuses this series with a sense that she's got you right where she wants you – on her porch, sharing a sunset, and a joined hope for redeeming this precious life. Together.

About the author:
After leaving her career as a family physician in 2006, Edie has found her sweet spot, her life's work, at home. Like her favorite Greek hero, Odysseus, her homecoming has been full of joys and trials and plenty of hard work—-as she has seeks to live a full, authentic and creative life with her family. She cooks and cleans and homeschools and gardens and crafts and reads and dabbles in bird-watching and star gazing. She's obsessed with cowboy boots, banjos, monograms and cornbread, and is Southern to the core. Her faith journey has had similar twists and turns as she has struggled through legalism and mysticism to finally find her true home in the orthodox christian faith, where the grace of God in Christ, has become her life's manifesto. She documents her faith journey, her insatiable appetite for classic literature, her love for C.S. Lewis, her obsession with art and design, and her Southern chic decorating style on her blog, lifeingrace. Her home was recently featured in January's issue of Better Homes and Gardens, after her family rebuilt their home and life following a devastating house fire. She writes with wit, passion, and honesty, and hopes to inspire women to love and care for their homes and families, in the midst of the often despairing hardships that life canbrings.

- 70 February 19, 2013 at 3:48 pm
On a wide variety of fronts, you are soooo right! My parents lost their place to a fire a few years before Dave, my husband, suddenly died in 11/11. Since then, hospitality just hasn't been important to me. Frankly, it's all I can do to keep the farm going along with the rest of life. Then, I "found" your e-book and am thinking…maybe it's time… I'm going to follow or sign up for your updates; life is frosty and Godly encouragement a balm in Gilead.
Thank you. - 71 February 19, 2013 at 10:45 pm

I ordered your book when you first released it. I could not find that it had downloaded, so I just wrote it off, however in reading the above comments, I see I was not the only one having problems. I have a Mac and decided it must not be compatable with your software. I thought I read someplace that you will be publishing this book in hardcover–did I dream that? Anyway, would be happy for another chance to download the ebook.
Thanks, so much.

This work presents an experimental study of hydrodynamic behaviour and mass transfer performance of ceramic foam (SiC) as column packing. Voidage of the foam studied is of 91% with 640 m2/m3 specific area and 5 PPI. Hydrodynamics experiments are realised with air-water system in counter current in a 150 mm diameter column with a packing height of one meter. Parameters studied are pressure drop for dry and wet packing, flooding and liquid hold-up. Total reflux experiments with n-heptane/cyclohexane mixture were carried out in a distillation column at atmospheric pressure to study mass transfer by determination of HETP (Height Equivalent to Theoretical Plate). The performance in terms of pressure drop per unit height and flooding are quite lower in comparison with classical packings of distillation. The pressure drop obtained is about few millibars per meter (0-10 mbar.m-1) for F-Factor from the range of 0 to 1 and liquid superficial velocities from 1 to 10 m3m-2h-1. Liquid hold-up values, measured in the same range of flow, are in a range of 5 to 10%. The possible application of foam as a packing for distillation is so demonstrated.

Lance Armstrong will answer 'honestly' during Oprah talk
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Lance Armstrong said he will answer questions "directly, honestly and candidly" during an interview with Oprah Winfrey next week. He will also apologize and make a limited confession to using performance-enhancing drugs, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.
Armstrong has spent more than a decade denying that he doped to win the Tour de France seven times. Without saying whether he would confess or apologize during the taping, Armstrong told The Associated Press in a text message early Saturday, "I told her (Winfrey) to go wherever she wants and I'll answer the questions directly, honestly and candidly. That's all I can say."
A confession would be a stunning reversal for Armstrong after years of public statements, interviews and court battles from Austin to Europe in which he denied doping and zealously protected his reputation.
Armstrong was stripped of his titles and banned from the sport for life last year after the U.S. Anti-Doping agency issued a detailed report accusing him of leading a sophisticated and brazen drug program on his U.S. Postal Service teams that included steroids, blood boosters and a range of performance-enhancing drugs.
Armstrong's interview with Winfrey is not expected to go into great detail about specific allegations levied in the more than 1,000-page USADA report. But Armstrong will make a general confession and apologize, according to the person, who requested anonymity because there was no authorization to speak publicly. Several outlets had also reported that Armstrong was considering a confession.
Armstrong hasn't responded to the USADA report or being stripped of his Tour de France titles. But shortly afterward, he tweeted a picture of himself on a couch at home with all seven of the yellow leader's jerseys on display in a room at his home in Austin. He also agreed to be interviewed there, in what the Oprah Winfrey Network announced would be a "no-holds barred" session. That's scheduled to be taped Monday and broadcast Thursday night.
"His reputation is in crisis," said crisis management expert Mike Paul, president of New York-based, MGP & Associates PR. "Most people don't trust what comes out of his mouth. He has to be truly repentant and humble."
He also has to be careful.
Armstrong is facing legal challenges on several fronts, including a federal whistle-blower lawsuit brought by former teammate Floyd Landis, who himself was stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title, accusing him of defrauding the U.S. Postal Service. The U.S. Justice Department has yet to announce whether it will join the case.
The London-based Sunday Times is also suing Armstrong to recover about $500,000 it paid him to settle a libel lawsuit, and Dallas-based SCA Promotions has threatened to bring yet another lawsuit against Armstrong to recover more than $7.5 million an arbitration panel awarded him as a bonus for winning the Tour de France. Continued...
The only lawsuit potentially impacted by a confession might be the Sunday Times case. Potential perjury charges stemming from his sworn testimony in the 2005 arbitration fight would not apply because of the statute of limitations. Armstrong was not deposed during a federal investigation that was closed last year without charges being brought.
However, he lost most of his personal endorsements — worth tens of millions of dollars — after USADA issued its report and he left the board of the Livestrong cancer-fighting charity he founded in 1997. He is still said to be worth an estimated $100 million.
Livestrong might be one reason to issue an apology or make a confession. The charity supports cancer patients and still faces an image problem because of its association with Armstrong.
He may also be hoping a confession would allow him to return to competition in the elite triathlon or running events he participated in after his cycling career. But World Anti-Doping Code rules state his lifetime ban cannot be reduced to less than eight years. WADA and U.S. Anti-Doping officials could agree to reduce the ban further depending on what new information Armstrong provides and his level of cooperation. USADA chief Travis Tygart did not return a call Saturday from the AP.
Armstrong met with USADA officials recently to explore a "pathway to redemption," according to a report by "60 Minutes Sports" aired Wednesday on Showtime.

Sue + New York City
(All photographs taken November 2010)
As photographers, it's always a blessing to catch a small break from the normal routine of weddings, engagements and portrait sessions. While we love what we do, every once in a while we need to take a breather and find an outlet to recharge ourselves both creatively and mentally. When Sue had contacted Jon a few weeks back, her email suggested shooting something along the lines of "fun.. fashion.. free spirited…crazy." Those keywords were enough to get things rolling.
Below is the culmination of the few hours we spent adventuring Harlem & the surrounding neighborhoods.
(Special thanks to Sue for being way too cool to work with. Also, thanks to Lakeshore Learning Center for suggesting the touchable bubbles we used that evening. Although our frigid fingers prevented us from successfully collecting and stacking the bubbles, y'all should try it out and share with us your experiences.)

Increased Power recoil springs are designed to offer maximum flexibility for the shooter by allowing adjustment of the recoil function to individual requirements. Optimum recoil and pistol functioning can usually be obtained by changing the recoil spring weight to meet variables such as multiple weight or velocity ammunition loads, use of compensators or porting.

Regarded as one of the best interviewers in broadcasting, Costas has spoken with the biggest names in baseball and beyond for MLB Network, including President Barack Obama at the 2009 All-Star Game; Hall of Famers Yogi Berra, Bob Feller, Bob Gibson, Reggie Jackson, Ferguson Jenkins, Don Larsen, Juan Marichal, and Tom Seaver; former managers Tony La Russa and Joe Torre, and Hall of Fame Award-winning broadcaster Ernie Harwell.
In 2011, Costas co-hosted with Tom Verducci MLB Network's landmark series "MLB's 20 Greatest Games," which ranked the top-20 games of the previous 50 seasons. The series featured interviews with key players, managers and broadcasters from each game, including Jack Morris and John Smoltz discussing Game 7 of the 1991 World Series, the No. 2-ranked game, and Hall of Famer Johnny Bench, 1975 MVP and Rookie of the Year Fred Lynn, Pete Rose, Bernie Carbo, Dwight Evans, Pat Darcy and Denny Doyle talking about Game 6 of the 1975 World Series, which was ranked by MLB Network as the No. 1 greatest game of the previous 50 seasons.
Costas also contributes to MLB Network's breaking news coverage throughout the year. In January 2010, Costas conducted the exclusive first television interview with Mark McGwire following his admission of steroid use during his playing career. Costas also secured the first interview with Sports Illustrated's Selena Roberts, after she broke the news in February 2009 of Alex Rodriguez's use of performance enhancing drugs. Throughout his career, Costas has hosted coverage of many significant baseball events, covering the American League Championship Series in 1983, 1985, 1987, 1989, 1994, 1995, 1998, 1999 and 2000. Costas covered the NLCS in 1999, and called the 1995, 1997 and 1999 World Series and the 2000 All-Star Game. From 1982 to 1989, Costas was the play-by-play announcer on NBC's Baseball Game of the Week telecasts.
Costas is the author of Fair Ball: A Fan's Case for Baseball, which received excellent reviews and made the New York Times Best Seller list in 2002. The book's net proceeds were donated to B.A.T. (Baseball Assistance Team), a charity providing financial assistance to those in need in the baseball family.
Outside of MLB Network, Costas currently serves as the host of NBC's "Football Night in America," is primetime host of NBC's coverage of the Olympic Games, co-hosts NBC's U.S. Open, Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes coverage, and hosts "Costas Tonight" on the NBC Sports Network. From 2005 to 2009, Costas hosted "Costas Now" on HBO, a quarterly one-hour sports magazine program. From 2001 to 2005, Costas hosted HBO's "On The Record," a weekly interview program. Costas also hosted HBO's "Inside the NFL" from 2002 to 2008.
Costas hosted "NBA Showtime," NBC Sports' NBA pregame show, from 1991 through the 1996 season, and was NBC's top play-by-play man for NBA on NBC game telecasts between 1997 and 2000. Costas' call of Michael Jordan's game-winning shot in the deciding Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals is considered one of sportscasting's most memorable calls of the modern era.
Costas began the popular "Costas Coast-to-Coast" nationally-syndicated Sunday night sports radio talk and interview show, which ran from 1986 to 1996. From 1988 to 1994, he hosted his own Emmy Award-winning late-night interview television show for NBC, "Later."
Costas handled regional NFL and NBA assignments for CBS Sports from 1976 to 1981, while working as the radio voice of University of Missouri basketball.
Costas has been honored as Sportscaster of the Year by the National Sportswriters and Sportscasters Association (NSSA) a record eight times, and was the youngest to receive such an honor when he won the award in 1985. Costas was inducted into the NSSA Hall of Fame in June 2012. Additionally, Costas received the Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence in Journalism from Arizona State University in October 2012 as well as the Vin Scully Lifetime Achievement Award from Fordham University's WFUV radio in May 2013.
Costas began his broadcasting career in 1974 at WSYR in Syracuse, where he attended the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University.

How was your Explore Tour Leader?
Very knowledgeable and friendly, constantly providing info on what we were passing and insights in to the country. Great sense of humour, very good level of English and interacted well with the group socially.
What tips would you give to someone else booking this tour?
The only thing most of us agreed on was that (although to be fair it did point this out in the write-up), there was a bit too much driving. So when booking this I'd see/ask if they've reduced the travelling components a little bit. Still a great tour overall though, just be prepared for lots of time in the car, literally 3 to 5+ hours each day.
Do you have anything else to add?
I would definitely use Explore again and recommend them, it's a great, stress-free way to travel and meet new like-minded people.

The Kentucky Derby is also known as your best excuse to get sloshed on mint juleps and wear a fancy hat. With all the hubbub, it's easy to forget the actual race.
But for those who take the Run for the Roses seriously, we've recruited Jeff Siegel, HRTV analyst and co-owner of the 1997 second-place Derby winner, Captain Bodgit, to share some basic betting strategies. Aaaand they're off!
Avoid rail runners.
It may be the shortest way around the track, but think of it as the 405 (too much traffic). Only one horse since 1964 has pulled a win from the inside draw.
Find a closer.
Front-runners rarely win the mile-and-a-quarter race.
Jockeys matter.
Calvin Borel has won three of the last four Derbies. This year he'll saddle up on Twice the Appeal, a colt who would otherwise have very little chance.
Consider only horses that finished in the money in their last starts.
You'll be surprised how many long-shot Derby winners have actually improved and are in good form.
Use the "my favorite silks" angle if you get stuck.
You may lose, but at least you'll be able to locate your horse among the twenty or so stampeding in the "greatest two minutes in sports."
Now, ladies and gentlemen, place your bets.

Bonsai juniper.
Bonsai is the Oriental art of cultivating miniature trees to make them look aged. This juniper bonsai is crafted in sabamiki style where the trunk is split and the bark stripped to evoke a visual effect of deep trunk damage as can be found in old trees. It won an award at the inaugral Kuala Lumpur Bonsai & Orchid Show 2012 held at the Perdana Botanical Gardens to coincide with the Petronas Formula One Malaysian Grand Prix 2012.
