So maybe the options that the debate can take place. MacBook Air 2011 MacBook Air 11 "1.6 GHz dual-core i5 64 GB (€ 949): 2 or 4 GB of RAM? Apple is never mean-spirited when she delivers machines with only 2 GB of RAM, but OS X Lion asked twice to be comfortable. It is regrettable therefore the Mac mini, but can you add memory to this machine. On the MacBook Air, the bars are welded. Should you take the expensive option (€ 100) 4 GB of RAM on the MacBook Air 11 "64 GB, thereby increasing its price to € 1 049? If you plan to keep this machine would do two years, yes.
With its array of SSD, the MacBook Air "makes" Lion OS X more fluid: lack of memory and the passage through the swap feels less. But it will eventually be felt, and you can not add RAM at that time. Problem: when you are more than € 100 for the next level in the range, which doubles the storage, trying ... From Apple in the text.
- Testing the MacBook Air 11 "mid-2011 Dual-Core 1.6 GHz Core i5
I5 or Core i7?
The question of the choice of processor is definitely one that comes up most often. The MacBook Air is the default processor with dual-core i5, one clocked at 1.6 GHz on the MacBook Air 11 ", the other running at 1.7 GHz on the MacBook Air 13" - the difference is also Intel graphics chip HD 3000 Graphics, which runs a little faster on the 13. "MacBook Air 11" 128 GB (€ 1,149) and the MacBook Air 13 "256 GB (€ 1,449), the top models of two segments, can optionally be equipped with an Intel Core i7 Dual Core 1.8 GHz.
This option will not cost less than € 150 for a few more MHz. We must always go back there again for you: what your MacBook Air will it serve? The performance gain on the MacBook Air 11 ", is about 15% - sensitive without being overwhelming. On the model 13", it is even smaller. This gain is fortunately not only the sacrifice of autonomy, which does not suffer too much.
If you absolutely need the maximum power in the smallest package possible (Xcode compilation mobility machine, slip into a backpack with the reflex on the go, working on a demo of two lanes ...), this small jump can be justified. Not sure however that for the average person, the few seconds saved is worth the € 150 spent.

- Testing the MacBook Air 13 "mid-2011 Core i7 Dual Core 1.8 GHz
MacBook Air What to choose?
This question can not call preconceived response: 11 "and 13" are machines that meet different needs. The few options available from Apple fails to convince, and one wonders if this is not done on purpose. After all, one does not choose anything other than its storage capacity on the iPad, not its processor or its memory allocation - the MacBook Air is an iPad keyboard in OS X.
But leave the premise that the entry-level model is € 1 049, not € 949: the transition to 4 GB of RAM seems essential. The Core i7 option is reserved for the most demanding ... MacBook Air as proposed by Apple machines are sufficient in themselves.

BRASILIA (Reuters) – Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro fired his health minister on Thursday after clashing with him over how to fight the new coronavirus, and again called for states to end stay-at-home orders that he said were hurting the economy.
Few global leaders have done more than Bolsonaro to play down the pandemic, which has killed nearly 2,000 Brazilians. He has called the virus "a little flu" and criticized state governors for imposing restrictions supported by health experts and the popular outgoing minister, Luiz Henrique Mandetta.
In televised remarks met with pot-banging protests in several major cities, Bolsonaro said Mandetta did not fully appreciate the need to protect jobs and he called again for a resumption of business in Brazil, Latin America's largest economy.
"We need to return to normal, not as fast as possible, but we need to start having some flexibility," Bolsonaro said. The government cannot afford emergency aid to the poor for much longer, he said.
The dispute at the highest reaches of Brazilian politics coincides with several countries debating when and how life should start returning to normal after coronavirus lockdowns, which are predicted to drive the global economy into recession.
Governors in the United States have formed regional coalitions to begin considering plans for reopening their economies, stoking friction with U.S. President Donald Trump, an ally of Bolsonaro's, who wants to see lockdowns lifted faster.
But while there are signs that the outbreak has peaked in the United States, medical experts agree that a peak in Brazil is still weeks away and it is too early to end social distancing.
"Do not think we are past a peak in growth of the virus. The health system is still not prepared for an acceleration," Mandetta warned in his parting comments at the ministry.

While Bolsonaro sharply criticized the shutdowns, the Health Ministry under Mandetta provided guidance supportive of the social distancing measures. Mandetta's daily briefings had also contradicted Bolsonaro's praise for unproven drugs.
Incoming minister Nelson Teich, asked at a news conference about the ministry's position now that he was in charge, said there will not be any "sudden changes" in policy.
However, he added: "There is a complete alignment between me and the president."
Teich, who founded an oncology group sold to United Healthcare in 2015, lacks the political experience of his predecessor, a former lawmaker who had begun to upstage Bolsonaro.
Boslonaro's popularity has slid and he faces nightly protests from Brazilians banging pots from their windows over his handling of the outbreak.
In addition to the daily 8:30 p.m. protest on Thursday, people also spontaneously began striking cookware when Bolsonaro announced Mandetta's firing.
The Health Ministry's response to the epidemic was rated "good" or "great" by 76% of Brazilians surveyed by pollster Datafolha. Just 33% of those surveyed gave Bolsonaro the same ratings.
Senator Major Olimpio, Bolsonaro's former right-hand man in Congress, praised Mandetta for sticking to scientific principles in the public health crisis and urged the new minister to defend the need for isolation measures.
"Teich has defended social distancing. If he persists in this, he will have serious problems with President Bolsonaro and won't last 30 days in office, or he will have to tear up his degree and contradict the entire global scientific community," the right-wing senator said in a video posted on social media.
The spread of the coronavirus in Brazil has accelerated to 30,425 confirmed cases, with some 200 fatalities per day bringing the death toll to 1,924 on Thursday, according to Health Ministry data, the highest in Latin America.

Artist's Statement : All three pieces are based on a series of photographs I took while visiting the Hart Silversmiths in the Cottswolds, UK, and they are intended as a kind of triptych. Mr. Hart is a third-generation artisan, whose shop is the only surviving business from an early 20th-C utopian experiment that was intended as a way to bring poor Londoners to the countryside, giving them new skills and a better life. The small workroom I visited was filled to the brim with fascinating bits and pieces that naturally formed beautiful still-life compositions. The scarred wooden benches and the many tools, gleaming with the patina of decades of handling, all spoke strongly to me of the beauty of imperfection—even in these machined, but now worn, elements of the silversmith's art.
BIO: Now retired from teaching, I am delighted to have the time to travel widely and to work in my home studio in Chicago. Currently, I am taking photography classes and working privately with a drawing teacher. I am fascinated by what makes photography Art and by how photographic images change as they are translated into other media, such as graphite drawings. In my Wabi-Sabi Tool Series, I am exploring how to express in graphite the many textures and surfaces of the well-worn tools I discovered strewn about the 100-year-old workshop of Hart Silversmiths in England.

With expanded coverage in this new edition, The Elements of Legal Style features additional sections, many more examples, and a thoroughly researched appendix that contains 80 major statements on prose style--what it is and how to attain it.
Inspired by Strunk and White's The Elements of Style, this book clearly (often wittily) explains the full range of what legal writers need to know: mechanics, word choice, structure, and rhetoric, as well as all the special conventions that legal writers should follow in using headings, defined terms, quotations, and many other devices. Garner also provides abundant examples from the best legal writers of yesterday and today, including Oliver Wendell Holmes, Clarence Darrow, Frank Easterbrook, and Antonin Scalia.
If you want to make your writing clearer, more precise, more persuasive, and above all more stylish, The Elements of Legal Style offers the surest--and the most enjoyable--means to that end.

One of the first things you probably learned about individual retirement accounts (and perhaps investing in general) is the value of time. The longer you give your investments to grow, the greater your account value will be. This is particularly true in the case of tax advantaged accounts such as IRAs.
IRA for children: the problem. Unfortunately, many individuals wait longer than necessary before they set up their first IRA. When someone waits until they're age 25 or 30 (or even later) they're missing out on a decade (or more) of growth opportunity. The good news is that there is no minimum age requirement for opening an IRA. The only requirement is that the account owner have at least as much earned income as they seek to contribute in any tax year, so we can help our children start their own IRAs if they have earned income.
IRA for Children tip #1: The Lasting Importance of a Summer Job. A teenager's first summer job can be extremely important to developing their character and strengthening their work ethic. And, of course, having the ability to earn their own spending money – and make the connection between working hard and being able to enjoy the fruits of that labor – is an invaluable lesson.
But take a minute to think about the benefits of starting an IRA with some of that money. A 15 year old who opens a new IRA with just $1,000 of their summer earnings can expect for that single, relatively small contribution to grow to nearly $50,000 by the time they're ready to retire (assuming an 8% annual rate of return).
IRA for Children tip #2: Which Dollars to Contribute to the IRA. Keep in mind that an individual only needs to have earned income during the same tax year that they want to contribute. The dollars they earned don't need to be the exact same dollars that go into the account. So, for example, if your teenager earns $1,500 next summer then they're eligible to open a new account (or contribute to an existing account if they previously set one up) and contribute $1,500. Their contribution can actually consist of their own money, plus money that you provide, so long as the total is not more than their earned income for the year).
IRA for Children tip #3: Consider the Roth IRA. Because your child is likely not to have a significant tax bill based on their summer earnings, the immediate tax deductible nature of a traditional IRA is going to be largely (or entirely) inapplicable. In general, a Roth IRA will be the preferred structure for a teenager opening an account.
IRA for Children tip #4: Explaining Options. If the concept of an IRA or the long term timeframe is a bit too difficult to explain to your child, you can explain how they could take penalty free distributions from their accounts for various reasons, including paying college expenses or for up to $10,000 for a down payment on a first home.
You can't simply set up an individual retirement account on behalf your children – the rules governing IRAs very clearly prohibit this. They need to be the account holder, and meet the earned income requirements themselves. But that doesn't mean you can't help them get their own accounts started. They may not understand exactly why it's so important to do so, but they'll certainly thank you when they're older.

I'm a book lover. Always have been, always will be. For me, the physicality of a book—the tactile qualities of holding it in my hands, the smell of the paper and ink, and the sound of turning the pages—it is part of a complete experience that I never want to give up. And I'm not the only one. Although e-readers have taken part of the book market, readers still prefer physical books and physical books outsell e-books.
I don't own an e-reader, but I do a lot of reading on screens, usually on my computer. Compared to even ten years ago, an enormous amount of important scholarship for the art historian is on the internet. I still conduct good and thorough research using printed books, but it's amazing what is available with a few taps of the keyboard.

I'm happy to say that Ginzametrics is no longer a one-man band. Over the last month, two new hackers have joined me, making us a band of three. I'm going to do longer intros and fill out our bios on the site when I get a chance, but I briefly want to introduce Nick Allen and James Somers.
Nick is a Common Lisp (and now Rails) hacker from Berkeley, with experience at two different startups in the Netherlands, Poland and India. Just prior to Ginzametrics, he was responsible for multi-million dollar projects building mobile networks for the Defense Industry.
James is a Rails hacker from NYC with a voracious appetite for mathematics, philosophy, economics and literature. Previously, he was the CTO at BookTour.com and also writes for The Atlantic.
You'll start to see Nick and James on this blog regularly and the three of us are already making massive improvements to Ginza. More to come!

Why in the World Scones?
In May of 2013 I had the pleasure of accompanying my friend Alison back to her homeland for a 'grand tour' of the English and Welsh countryside. We motored through Kent, took high tea in London, walked the Wiltshire countryside, and settled down for a week in the Cotswolds. Everywhere we went, we sussed out the best food via social media, and religiously sampled the local ales and cheeses. We also focused on touring as many prominent gardens as we could, always sure to stop in the ever-present tea room. Absolutely. Glorious.
Anyone who knows me knows I adore great gardens. I feel somewhere between this world and the next when I walk in them. I took away something unexpected from this particular trip though - a love of great scones. I returned to my Colorado hometown and never quite forgot them. The snowflake texture, the buttery essence, and that one ingredient that caused them to hover above the earth - Devonshire cream. Accompanied by a perfect cup of tea. We've nothing like this here. Nothing.
The scones here are satisfying, don't get me wrong. Some quite good. But ... they're cakey. Or they're doused with a achingly sweet glaze crust, and they become a triangular, hole-less doughnut at that point. They're somehow still bound to this earth, like a good biscuit. They make you want coffee with them to balance their density, which is why Starbucks serves them. I decided to embark on a quest to find a recipe that replicates those scones - over there.
I knew I began to hit the target after about a year of trying different recipes. I grew a little too close to the subject matter and needed objectivity (I wish you could have seen the quizzical looks I've received when I've discussed my scone nerdiness with others). I began to bring my latest experiments into the office, with very encouraging reactions. I would casually deposit a scone on a colleagues desk, usually on a Friday. I would get a "thanks!" and our conversation would turn to the task or issue at hand. Sometimes I'd head off back to my office. Almost without exception, my test subject would drop what they were doing, pause, eye-widened, and say something to the effect of "that's a scone?! omg, that's the best damn scone I've ever had!"
And that's without the Devonshire cream. Which is an excellent start. But, I conjectured, there is a very good reason that the classic pairing of scone + devonshire cream is absolutely ubiquitous across the UK (they call it a "cream scone" and it always is served with good tea). I think we are missing the ball over here. Time to change things. Time to fill that afternoon energy dive most of us suffer. We fill it rather horribly now - with more coffee (not as nice in the afternoon somehow), sugar, etc. I cannot emphasize enough how immensely satisfying it is to cuddle a warm cup of lightly caffeinated great tea and tuck into a light-as-air cream scone during that daily valley.
Office Salvation. Here's hoping you share in the experience.
6/4/2019 03:00:14 am
I am not very familiar with the process of preparing scones. I have been baking for about five years now, however, clearly, I still have much to learn. Today, I just want to progress my skills in the track that I see fit. Scones may be a simple dish to bake, but it is something that I need to practice doing. I plan to follow this recipe of yours and I hope that I find success on baking some scones.

Learning Sites' Vari House model has been selected by Simon & Schuster Corp. as the only virtual world to appear on their new public school education Website.
"One of the leading companies dedicated to the educational aspects of 'virtual worlds' is Learning Sites." London Daily Telegraph
"Perhaps one of the most accessible archaeological worlds on the Internet is the Vari House, created by Learning Sites Incorporated....

Burma's Minister for Home Affairs Lt-Gen Kyaw Swe told reporters on Monday that prisoners under investigation for recent attacks on border police in Arakan State are being treated in accordance with the law.
"There are currently 16 individuals in custody and the ICRC can come look at them anytime," he said, referring to the International Committee of the Red Cross, which monitors treatment of prisoners.
Speaking to reporters outside of the Maungdaw Township government office, the army-appointed minister said there was "no unlawful conduct, no torture" involved in the interrogation of people suspected of involvement in the attacks, which began on 9 October.
"What I want to say is we are strictly following the law — we will not do anything that is not in accordance with the law."
He made the remarks amid concerns expressed by human rights advocates about the number of people who have been killed over the past week.
At a press conference held in Naypyidaw on Monday afternoon, Deputy Home Affairs Minister Maj-Gen Aung Soe said that 30 "terrorists" — 28 men and two women — had been killed so far.
"Since the first day of the incident to the date, there have been five deaths among the Tatmadaw [armed forces] servicemen, and nine among the police, including one officer. In addition, a police official and two other ranking personnel were also injured," he said.
The press conference, which was joined by a delegation of senior government officials who went to Maungdaw last week, included Information Minister Pe Myint, Deputy Minister of Defence Maj-Gen Myint Nwe, acting Foreign Minister Kyaw Tint Swe, Deputy Border Affairs Minister Maj-Gen Than Htut, and Police Chief Zaw Win.
Kyaw Swe, the home affairs minister, also told the reporters that police Brig-Gen Maung Maung Khin, who was commander of the Maungdaw border police at the time of the attacks, had been replaced.
"Police Brig-Gen Thura San Lwin has been assigned duty as the [new commander of border police in Maungdaw]. The Home Affairs Ministry rewards those who perform well, but also punishes the incompetent," he said.
He also vowed to continue with efforts to secure the area in the wake of the attacks, regardless of concerns about mounting casualties.
"The police force in coordination with its brother organisation the Tatmadaw [armed forces] will protect every inch of our land from invasion. You may include that in your report," he said.
While reiterating that the security effort would be carried out lawfully, he added that local residents "must abide by our rules when they are in Burma" — implying that people living in the area were not rightful inhabitants of the country.
"Otherwise they should get out," he added.

How can I answer this question in SQL?
"List of 10 sufficient employees in X corporation".
car(price, manufactor.id, color, createdbyid, creationdate),
manufactor(name, id),
employee(id, name, salary)
What do you mean by sufficient employee?
the employees with lower salary than others and who have created more cars than others(createdbyid)
Based on tables you have listed, I don't see any relation between employee and car.
Hi all.
Can you pls explain detail about sql
**Links removed by Site Administrator so it doesn't look like you're spamming us. Please don't post them again.**
To list the top 10 employees in SQL, you can use a SELECT statement with an ORDER BY clause and a LIMIT clause. The ORDER BY clause is used to sort the results based on a specific column, and the LIMIT clause is used to limit the number of rows returned.
Here is an example of how you can list the top 10 employees based on their salary:
SELECT * FROM employees
ORDER BY salary DESC
This will return the top 10 employees with the highest salary.
lower salary AND more cars? Which has priority? Sort by number of cars then by salary and limit to 10?
Build an aggregate query that counts cars by employee then join that query to employee table. Do sort and limit in that query.

A recent report from research firm RNCOS shows that the Indian cosmetic sector is expected to post a compound annual growth rate of 18% 2011–2014. Cost-conscious consumers in India are changing their mindset about cost versus quality of products. More and more consumers do not mind spending extra on beauty care and health care products, due, largely, to an increase in income at every level of society leading to more disposable income. Indian consumers are willing to buy more expensive products if they offer greater results.
Additionally, due to media exposure and the growing number of online retailers, the gap between urban buyer's aspirations and those in the rural areas and smaller towns is closing. This has led to an increased demand for brands such as Dove and Pond's in smaller towns and some developed rural areas, according to to a market research undertaken by Hindustan Unilever (HUL). Previously, the reach of these brands were primarily confined to tier I and tier II cities.
Additionally, HUL's research showed that the deodorant category in the rural and small town areas posted growth rate of 40% (for comparison, the skin care category growth rate is 20%), which is greater than the overall growth rate of the Indian deodorant market. HUL and other consumer product goods companies operating in India—including ITC, Godrel Consumer Products and Marico—have noted in various reports and news releases that Indian consumers are looking for value and considering cost second. If their chosen products deliver the value they are seeking, then today's Indian consumers do not mind spending extra.

First Timothy 2:9: "In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;…."
If we examine the word itself, we see two main parts—"shame" and "face." Therefore, "shamefacedness" is the ability for one's face to show shame, someone who can be bothered by things inappropriate. Strangely, it does not trouble some individuals to be vulgar and crude. They utter obscenities with ease, behaving in the most uncouth ways—even in public. This is all they know, as they grew up with such "normal" behavior. Thus, to them, it is outlandish to act polite and modest, proper and decent.
Women are the primary audience in 1 Timothy 2:9, although men should certainly be cautious about their conduct as well. When dealing with members of the opposite sex who are not our spouses, there should be restraint and discretion, bashfulness, or regard. There should be "shamefacedness," especially as pertaining to how we dress.
By the way, the Greek word rendered "shamefacedness" in 1 Timothy 2:9 is aidos, found one other time in the King James Bible. It is in Hebrews 12:28, so translated "reverence:" "Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:…." Whereas 1 Timothy 2:9 is respect toward others, Hebrews 12:28 is respect toward God.

I wrote last time that if we want to see multiplication we need to create three structures:
- The DBS -- for evangelism. This is the normal entry point for non-Christians.
- The Gathering -- for ongoing discipleship. This involves 20 to 80 people getting together for worship, building community, stengthening individual believers and outreach. Some non-Christians will prefer to join here where they can watch without a lot of commitment.
- The Team -- for leadership training. Equipping people to lead the Gathering and start new DBS groups
In our movement we have four DBS leaders who have a total of seven DBS groups.
Last week we had our second Team Meeting. I wanted to keep the meeting to 90 minutes, so I wrote out an agenda following the CASA outline.
C- Caring for one another
I had a pretty good handle on how things were going for the team, but there were some major changes in their lives that I wanted everyone to hear about.
A - Accountability
Three of the members had been on trips outside the city. I wanted to hear how God opened up doors for them to talk about Jesus.
I was concerned about how two members of Carrie's group were going, so we talked about this for awhile.
S - Select
I chose to do a Discovery Bible Study on Psalm 69:7-12. Many believe this Psalm talks about Jesus teenage years.
Our leaders have also been looking at the Life of Christ and how He built a movement. We discussed lesson 5 and thought about how being a carpenter would have prepared Jesus for ministry. Then we thought about how current jobs are helping prepare us for ministry.
A - Application
We are seeing the need to raise up more prayer for our movement. I asked each member to find four people outside of our group who will pray for them on a regular basis. That will be easy for some and a real stretch for others.
The last question I always ask is "When do you want to meet again?" Our calendars are very full, and we need to be flexible. We try to meet every four weeks.
Do you have a team to work with? I'll give you some ideas next time on how to bring a team together.

Personal Protection Equipment (PPE)
Effective PPE is vital to provide the protection your workforce requires in order to work safely and ensure that all employment laws are complied with. The range of PPE equipment from Protec Direct provides protection against most hazards that are faced within the workplace from head to toe.
PPE Regulations and the law
The Personal Protection Equipment at Work Employers are legally required to provide protection equipment for employees that face hazards in their natural working environment and must minimise or reduce any potential danger which may be encountered.
When providing PPE, employers must ensure that it is readily available and make it clear where the equipment can be found. Just having PPE on-site is not enough.
The range of PPE available from Protec Direct
Protec Direct provide an extensive range of personal protective equipment from head and face protection to safety footwear, the range provides protection when working in almost every industry and environment.
- Head Protection – Providing a wide range of safety helmets, bump hats and accessories for industries where head safety equipment is compulsory.
- Safety Glasses – For industries where eye protection is mandatory and there is a high risk of eye injuries, the range from Protec Direct will provide the safety required.
- Face Protection – From browguards to visors, the range of face protection protects against chemical splashes, metal impacts and other hazards.
- Hand Protection – Gloves, armguards and protective sleeves provide protection from a vast array of hazards that could cause injury to hands.
- Safety Footwear – Safety footwear includes boots, trainers and anti-slip footwear to provide protection for employees.
Specifying the Correct Personal Protective Equipment
Specifying the correct PPE is vital to ensuring employee safety and should only be used as a last resort where other methods of minimising the risk to employees have already been considered.
If PPE is still required, it should always be provided free of charge, carefully selected and any faults should be reported immediately. In addition the equipment should be periodically tested or replaced in line with manufacturer recommendations.
European Standards And Regulations For Personal Protection Equipment
- The Personal Protective Equipment Regulations (2002)
- The Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations (1992)
Employer Requirements
- Maintenance of equipment is vital to ensure it performs as intended and that any faults are repaired
- Ensure that all PPE is stored in the correct conditions and is accessible to all employees
- Where more than one item of equipment is being worn, ensure that they are suitable for use together and are compatible

Steve Basilico, Owner
Steve Basilico began his landscaping career in high school, as an employee at Mulhall's – where he stocked shelves, organized inventory and, under the guidance of the Mullhall family, learned to appreciate the artistry and technical expertise that goes into the landscaping process.
After spending time in the armed forces, Steve studied Environmental Science at the University of Nebraska Omaha, where he gained invaluable insight on planning, geography, topography and more. It was while he was at UNO that his own business picked up pace, and Outdoor Oasis came to be.
Over the years, Steve's offerings have grown – from an initial focus on water features to today's broad range of services – based on trends, new resources and the changing needs of his customers. His expertise, as well as that of his team, has grown too. Outdoor Oasis places a priority on continuing education and keeping certifications up to date, ensuring the services you receive include the latest techniques from some of the best people in the industry.
Outside of Outdoor Oasis, Steve is involved in the Omaha community and enjoys spending time with his two children, Alex and Adriana, who both attend St. Stephen the Martyr School.
Steve and his team at Outdoor Oasis have been landscaping our home and lake house for the past seven years and we could not be happier with the great ideas, expertise, and professionalism that they have continually provided.
Outdoor Oasis absolutely nailed my landscaping project this summer. I wanted to remove a huge pile of dirt (covered in enormous weeds) that was crowding my AC and change it to an attractive yet low maintenance area of my yard. Steve responded immediately and came out the next morning to take a look at the site. Steve had some excellent suggestions and delivered an estimate the same day. Two days later I had exactly what I wanted, complete with river rock, a flagstone path to the water spigot, and something I hadn't experienced: a level AC. His crew discovered that my AC platform was sinking into the ground and they raised it! The entire crew were professional and friendly. This was the best experience I've had with a landscaper. I recommend Steve and his crew at Outdoor Oasis.
Our company has enjoyed working on several projects with Steve and Outdoor Oasis, including a paver project at my home. They are a great group to work with and we will definitely be using them again in the future.
Steve and his team have designed and completed many projects for us at our home and business. They are good people with great ideas. We love the natural and warm design approach to the beds and stairs at our home and the clean, modern landscaping at our place of business. I highly recommend Outdoor Oasis.

Recalling an Early Summer Scene
Since I knew I'd probably want to do a painting of this I also took a number of photos for reference. Unfortunately because she was buried deep in foliage they turned out very dark. As I watched her I eventually discovered the male in the same tree, not close but at least in the same tree. So I took some underexposed photos of him as well.
When I began painting birds I relied on photos that I'd taken. I found a number of problems with this: I was getting my inspiration from marks on a flat surface, not from a living thing in a living three-dimensional world; I also often found myself hypnotized by the photos composition. I had a strong tendency to come pretty close to copying not just the bird, but also the composition when I painted. A slave to my photos? Not completely, since I tend to work loosely, and eventually abandon my original source. But still more indebted and limited than I liked.
So 12-18 months ago I forced myself to do real field sketches. They might be bad but they were honest. Then over the last few months I've looked to my sketchbooks for ideas for paintings, not my growing collection of photos. It's so much more inspirational to work from sketches rather than photos.
Just one problem though. Sometimes my sketches don't show much, as with the Orchard Oriole on nest. I started this painting three days ago, thinking I could get away with just using the sketch. But as I worked on it I realized I was fudging the bird. So I ended up referring to photos of both male and female more than I really liked. Still, at least for the female, the pose came from the sketch, not any photots.
I ran into another problem: heavy foliage. My guess is that this is the bane of many an artist. Birds, or other animals, are seen in habitats, many of which include leaves, or grasses which are just as bad. Some artists solve this my painting every little detail, or at least they're skilled enough to fool the viewer into thinking that they have. Others just put a few loose brushstrokes around the birds, happy with the mere suggestion on an environment. And then others try an obvious shorthand. That's what I've tried here. The thing is, I don't have a shorthand language for leaves. Each painting I feel like I'm developing one all over again. That may be why I spent three days on this. I kept changing it, veering off in various directions, trying to find something that worked.
This is done for now. I've learned something and the result I think is cohesive. Most likely I'll try this scene again, maybe next week, maybe in a year or more.
I'm happy that I've gotten to the point where I'm now using field sketches as my inspiration. There's a lot of freedom in working this way, though also, as you can see, some difficulties.

SCEC remains concerned that the state government is pushing ahead with the establishment of a motorsports precinct, starting with an off-road motorcycling facility, within the Mooloolah Logging Area. This proposal has bypassed community consultation or due consideration of more suitable alternative sites. We need to act urgently to prevent the loss of biodiversity values and an important part of a key bio-regional corridor.
Please sign the petition here. It's quick, easy and important!
Preview the petition below
Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House our opposition to the proposed location for an 'off-road motorcycling facility' in the Mooloolah Logging Area (MLA), Beerwah State Forest due to unacceptable environmental, social and economic impacts.
Concerns relate to a lack of transparency, no community consultation, environmental assessments or consideration of alternative sites. The area has significant ecological values including Matters of National Environmental Significance under the EPBC Act 1999 and Matters of State and Local Significance. Endangered and threatened species are present such as lowland subtropical rainforest, Richmond Birdwing Butterfly vines and its dependent Richmond Birdwing, Koalas and Wallum Sedge Frogs plus numerous others.
• Significant noise and amenity impacts will be generated affecting residents, businesses and wildlife. The Mooloolah Cemetery and Ewen Maddock Dam are close by.
• No justification for this facility has been demonstrated. Riding in Protected Areas (PA) may be an issue, however, many will continue to ride unregulated for free. Loss of conservation values in the MLA from direct and indirect impacts have not been evaluated against incremental impacts on PA's.
• Significant taxpayer funds have been allocated for apparent low return and limited benefit. This prioritised 'need' has not been demonstrated, particularly given a budget 'crisis'.
Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to oppose the facility and suspend the tender process on the stated grounds. Broad, transparent consultation, alternative site feasibility, robust environmental and related assessments and a cost benefit analysis must be undertaken at a minimum and made publicly available.
Please sign the petition here. Just a couple of easy steps to add your voice.. with thanks

How does ADL5801 active mixer perform when driven single-ended on both its RF and LO ports without baluns? In some applications, baluns/transformers are not preferred, due to certain requirements such as cost.
It is possible to drive the RF and/or LO ports of active balanced mixer, such as the ADL5801, without balun(s) for single-ended operation. To do this, one input is ac-coupled to ground and the signal (LO or RF) is ac-coupled into the other input. In the example shown, the unused input was ac-coupled to ground using 100pF capacitor.
As can be seen from the plot below, the mixer maintains excellent IP3 over a broad frequency range. The downside of this mode of operation is approximately 3 dB of conversion loss compared to a conversion gain of +1.5dB when the RF input is driven differentially..
The dual channel mixer, ADL5802, can also be operated in this mode.

Kiasma chair by Vesa Honkonen
Stockholm Design Week: architect Vesa Honkonen launched the Kiasma chair for Swedish manufacturer Källemo at the Stockholm Furniture Fair last week.
The assymetrical chairs were designed for for the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma in Helsinki, Finland.
They will be installed in the museum café, and will replace those designed by Steven Holl ten years ago. Honkonen assisted Holl with the design for the original chairs.
Honkonen has provided us with the original sketches, drawings and photos of development prototypes for the Kiasma chair.
See our earlier story on Honkonen's Heinola Reading Lights. The following text is from Honkonen:
In 2008, Kiasma Café's original chairs designed by Steven Holl, become 10 years old. This chair has a strong character and it has been an important part of Kiasma's image. However, ten years is a long time for café chairs.
I had personally assisted Steven in making these chairs come true. It was a long process with some artists, boat makers and casting experts helping us. Average lifespan for a café chair is about 5 – 6 years, so in 2007 it was time to create something new.
I got permission to design the chairs and develop them together with Swedish furniture manufacturer Källemo. Steven Holl gave me one piece of advice, "Light passing through the chairs is important".
I started to make sketches as cartoons, since I did not want to force the form to become visible too soon. I wanted to first find the essence, the soul of this chair. With these cartoons, where the emptiness is talking with a person, the chair found its form.
It became clear that the chair itself is the light and the leg that represents the earth, holds it.
The form wanted to have movement as well. Asymmetry started to take over. It was interesting to follow this path. Few times during this process, I was forced to change the form I had found.
These discussions with emptiness guided me always to a new form, which also followed the origin of the chair. The leg became one continuous line moving through space, holding the light in its hands.
During this process I became more and more convinced that in design, in giving form, the form itself is not so important. It is what is behind the form, the origin telling the story. It is about movement, space in between.

Sorry, 'Heneral Luna' Romanticized Strongmen
My comments on Twitter seem to have offended the director, Jerrold Tarog, and I offer my apologies for any personal hurt my words have caused. The good director has accused me of failing to do my job as a history teacher because, instead of educating students, I am "telling artists what to do." I have never confused my criticism with writ, and neither have I been under any illusions of being able to dictate artistic content to a renowned director.
But I am a citizen of the Philippines, and I seek a democratic future for our country. And to this extent, I am wary of cultural content that may aid in eroding our democratic culture. Unfortunately, intentionally or unintentionally, Mr. Tarog's Heneral Luna did just that.
In order to wash his hands of the effects his art might have on political events, Mr. Tarog imposes an unreasonably high bar on what constitutes artistic influence. On the issue of whether or not Heneral Luna helped elect Rodrigo Duterte, he dismisses critics through a challenge: "Show me a valid survey with a completely sufficient sample size that proves causation, not correlation, and we can have a conversation about this" (Of course there is no "valid survey," but curiously, Mr. Tarog still engages in a disquisition about "this" very topic).
I am wary of cultural content that may aid in eroding our democratic culture. Unfortunately, intentionally or unintentionally, Mr. Tarog's Heneral Luna did just that.
But the influence of literature and film cannot be reduced to simple causality. Stories do not cause; they pique curiosity, stimulate discussion, and reinforce/challenge worldviews. Sometimes the opinions they promote are democratic; sometimes they aren't. Yet popular stories, democratic or authoritarian, have effects. To historians that claim Rizal's novels inspired the Philippine revolution or that the film The Birth of a Nation paved the way for the re-emergence of the Ku Klux Klan, Mr. Tarog should likewise demand from them "a valid survey" that proves causation.
Mr. Tarog knows it is absurd to measure art's influences through surveys. Which is why he offers another excuse for promoting an authoritarian figure: "While storytellers must act responsibly, it is not our job to tiptoe around undiscerning viewers." In other words, blame the "undiscerning" (read: stupid) audience members, not the filmmaker.
But did an audience member have to be "undiscerning" to walk out of Heneral Luna believing that it was an endorsement of authoritarianism? Mr. Tarog argues that he portrayed Luna as a man with flaws, citing scenes like when "Eduardo Rusca tried to stop Luna from shooting the chicken vendor." I do not doubt this claim to nuance, because only the most idiotic of storytellers would portray their heroes as flawless. I never argued that Luna was Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ.
Instead of looking at chicken vendors, we should examine the film's broad narrative arch. The beats of the film follow that of the contemporary blockbuster, and in certain respects, a superhero movie. When people watch blockbusters or superhero movies, they are not expecting tragedies about the hubris of authoritarianism. Rather, they expect stories about good guys vs. bad guys.
There is a diptych of heroism at the center of the film distilled in the line: bayan o sarili. Luna represents prioritizing the nation, while his enemies thought only of self. On one side, you find, in Tarog's words, the "uncompromising and violent" Luna, who wished to fight the Philippine-American War to the bitter end. Against him were the scheming and effete "traitors" like Buencamino who wanted to surrender to the Americans. If the film didn't hammer this message, its marketing definitely did.
It's the simplicity of "bayan o sarili" that continues to trouble me. As a historian, I object to portraying those who sued for peace as "traitors." The Philippine-American war was unprecedented in its violence, causing by some estimates the death of ten percent of the population. For politicians like Buencamino to seek peace after such carnage may have been traitorous to some, but humane for others. Provincial elites and ilustrados like Luna were leading their troops—many of whom were poor peasants—into slaughter, and while compromising with the enemy may have been less glorious than dying on the field of battle (alas, less cinematic?), it was not simple selfishness.
It's the simplicity of "bayan o sarili" that continues to trouble me. As a historian, I object to portraying those who sued for peace as "traitors."
Those who "collaborated" with Americans have been pilloried for opportunism by historians from the "nationalist school" of the University of the Philippines. Its doyen, Teodoro Agoncillo, once claimed that T.H. Pardo de Tavera deserved to be shot for surrendering to the Americans. Heneral Luna dismisses these figures in the same light. But as Resil Mojares's Brains of the Nation (to me, the single most important book on Filipino ilustrados) shows, the collaboration of people like Pardo with the Americans had multiple impulses. Apart from pacifism, they believed, maybe naively, that the liberal reforms they sought under Spain would be possible under America. There's an argument to be made that the liberal reformist, Jose Rizal, who admired many aspects of American republicanism, would have agreed with his drinking buddy, Pardo.
Does this mean these people were not opportunists? No. But they were complex characters, maybe more complex than the martial Luna.
The fantastical belief, or perhaps counterfactual, at the heart of Heneral Luna is the wish for national deliverance after imperialism: if only we had beaten these Americans, if the traitors hadn't sold us out... Never mind that independence from Americans would have still ended up with elite, cacique rule. Unfortunately, nationalistic deliverance may be as fleeting as the ending criminality in 3 to 6 months. But of course cinema and electoral politics must trade in fantasy.
So did Heneral Luna contribute to Duterte's rise? Maybe not directly. But it foregrounded a strong, dictatorial leader at a time when people were sick of effete and opportunistic liberals. It also glorified a violent nationalism and dismissed pacifism as treason. Mr. Tarog cannot wash his hands of this message. If I am inquisitorial, it is only because whatever authoritarian fantasies Mr. Tarog's film may have generated are now becoming reality.
Mr. Tarog believes that my criticism constitutes "suppression." But he confuses the critic for the censor. I do not wish to chill his work on Quezon—I might even pay good money to see it (I'd love to see a House of Cards, Philippine edition). But if he uses the Philippine de Gaulle to promote another "uncompromising" vision of Philippine politics, I will once again feel obligated to take a stand.

Curriculum information and design principles
Curriculum information
Curriculum overview
Our Curriculum
At Lakefield Church of England Primary School we passionately believe that the children's needs and interests are rightly at the heart of our curriculum.
As a school we are always looking for new themes and ways to develop the experiences for our children. Since the publication of the revised National Curriculum in 2014, which we follow, we have continued to develop our provision.
We use a thematic approach to deliver the curriculum as we believe it helps children make 'links' within their learning, so aiding their understanding. Each class undertakes a theme each term, learning in our school is developed through a curriculum that is both rich and vibrant, containing many first hand experiences which help to put the children's learning into context; artists, scientists, musicians, actors, clergy, charity representatives, as well as sportsmen and women are all regular visitors to the school.
We use a number of different approaches to explore and deliver the themes to ensure we enable our children to develop all the skills they need to be confident and successful learners. We involve our children as we value their ideas and contributions. We firmly believe that children learn best when they are at the heart of the process. We want our children to be to develop an insatiable appetite for learning through hands on, creative, problem solving activities and challenges allowing them to be inquisitive and curious; through this preparing them to be ready to face the future demands of learning in Secondary School, so that they are ready to take their place as citizens in Modern Britain.
Christian Values
Our whole school Christian Values underpin how we work and play and we believe these to be central to the value of the school. We focus on our pupils developing an understanding of their role within their own community and how they can contribute beyond to British society and the world.
Life Questions
As a Church of England School we also believe in asking our pupils to think about the big questions in life. We do this through our Worship and RE lessons but we also create sessions for Philosophy for Children. It is important to us that we develop a respect for ideas and provide opportunities for our children to grow spiritually and ethically within a supportive and respectful community.
Philosophy for Children (P4C)
Members of staff have achieved level 1 in P4C with some members of staff trained to level 2 standard.
Children in Key Stage 2 (Years 3 to 6) study French as part of the curriculum using the Language Angels programme
