The "Kindergarten Readiness Act," requires every public school district to provide a Transitional Kindergarten (TK) program to those "young fives" (children turning five from September 2 through December 2) displaced from kindergarten by the new entry date.
Transitional Kindergarten (TK) is intended to bridge the preschool years with the conventional kindergarten year. Enrollment in Transitional Kindergarten is intended to be a two-year program to complete the kindergarten standards.
Mill Valley School District Transitional Kindergarten Program
· Enrollment in TK is voluntary (as is kindergarten) and state law requires districts to provide a minimum of 36,000 minutes of instructional time per year in these classes.
· TK will be taught by a credentialed elementary teacher who will provide instruction in all curricular areas.
· Class size is projected to be up to 30 students per class.
· Location: For the 2015-16 school year, there will be one TK class at Edna Maguire School and one class at Strawberry Point School. Due to enrollment growth and space limitations, this location is subject to change from year to year.
· Hours: For the 2015-16 school year, 8:40 AM-11:50 AM until Sept 18, then 8:40 AM-12:40 PM starting Sept 21, including a 30-minute lunch period (AM/PM schedule - subject to change based on enrollment).
· No transportation/bus service will be provided.
· The MVSD does not offer a before or after school childcare program. Please visit www.marindayschools.org to find out about child care options provided by Marin Day Schools (Bright Horizons), or contact Joanne Haight firstname.lastname@example.com
Who is eligible to be enrolled in regular Kindergarten?
Who is eligible to be enrolled in Transitional Kindergarten?
What is the Transitional Kindergarten program?
The Transitional Kindergarten (TK) year is intended to be the first year of a two-year kindergarten experience for those students who are enrolled in a TK classroom. The focus of year one of the TK program is on exposure to, not mastery of, kindergarten skills and standards. The classroom setting will meet the developmental needs of young children. The expectation is that students who are enrolled in the TK program will participate in a regular kindergarten program during the following school year.
Please note that location of transitional kindergarten is subject to change depending on enrollment growth in the District.
If you have questions about Mill Valley's Transitional Kindergarten program, please contact Barbara Kent at firstname.lastname@example.com, or call 415-389-7712

Just putting in a request for someone to find a map of East Anglia for this page. I'd like to see where it is in the UK geographically b/c many English emigrants (esp. those that came to the US) were from EA. Thank you. jengod 08:24, Jan 16, 2004 (UTC)
- I always like to describe East Anglia as the bobbly bit on the right of England. There's a fairly distintive, almost circular bulge towards the south east. (This doesn't mean a map wouldn't be useful, though) --Darac 09:50, 16 Jan 2004 (UTC)
- I don't think there is a clear definition of East Anglia, although a lot of people and organisations use the term to mean something close to the East of England region (there is one school of thought that believes the term should have been used for the government region since it's more than just points on the compass). But a historic map of the kingdom and/or any well known set of boundaries might at least give an idea. --Timrollpickering 12:16, 10 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Popular wisdom tends to point towards East Anglia consisting exclusively of Norfolk and Suffolk; Essex, occasionally included, is usually locally dismissed as "the south east".
- Just to further confuse the issue, King's Lynn is home to the College Of West Anglia! Kinitawowi 14:53, 02 Aug 2004 (BST)
- I'm wondering if it's worth mentioning that the area is publicly conceived as being flat; ask the average layman (read: non-East Anglian) what they know about East Anglia and they'll say it's flat. It's clearly developed a notoriety for it, accurate or otherwise. --Kinitawowi 14:34, Aug 2, 2004 (UTC)
Although North Norfolk has some hills that were pushed up by glaciers in the last ice age, Norfolk still has the lowest high point of any traditional English county. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Holt100 (talk • contribs) 12:37, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
Semi autonomous?[edit]
This is the first I've heard that East Anglia is semi-autonomous or has it's own regional assembly. Perhaps it's refering to the East of England regional assembly [1], which includes more than just East Anglia, has very little (if any) power, and isn't elected (and probably won't be for the forseeable future). -- Joolz 17:07, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)
>The East of England Development Agency, on the other hand, is unelected and has a great deal of power.
I've lived in East Anglia for 25 years but this is the first time I've seen a flag of East Anglia! Who are these regionalist parties who have proposed it? Come to think of it, I don't think I've heard of any "regionalist parties" in East Anglia. If they exist, they are doing a very poor job of promoting their cause! Bluewave 18:24, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- I see the flag is back! If someone can quote an authoritative source, I will believe that there is a recognised flag of East Anglia but, so far, I have seen only a vague reference to an idea by a handful of "ex pat" east anglians around 1900. I have quite a few books on east Anglia and none of them mentions a flag. Two UK flag companies (www.HampshireFlag.co.uk and www.midland-flags.com) have good online catalogues, but no mention of an East Anglian flag. Bluewave 09:11, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
>The flag you mention was invented around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. It was promoted in Norfolk, but never really took off.
It is hadly the Swedish flag in the centre but the Swedish The Swedish Lesser Coat of Arms, representing the United Kingdom of Sweden, today the Kingsdom of Sweden. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.108.40.206 (talk) 00:37, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
THE FLAG OF EAST ANGLIA Was designed in the early 1900's by George Henry Langham for the London Society of East Anglians. It is the Cross of St George of England with the banner of St Edmund, a blue shield with three gold crowns in the centre of the cross. The arms are effectively identical to the small arms of Sweden, from where the East Anglian royal dynasty, the Wuffingas, were supposed to have originated. It also appears in the arms of the borough of Bury St. Edmunds, Coat of arms of the municipality of Göteborg (Gothenburg), Sweden, and the University of East Anglia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Holt100 (talk • contribs) 12:02, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
A recent edit speaks of a "candidate for arms of East Anglia". The use of arms in England is strictly controlled by the College of Arms: it is not sufficient for some people to identify a likely candidate and adopt it. As far as I am aware, arms are granted (for a large fee) to individuals, establishments such as universities, corporations and similar bodies. I am not sure that arms can be granted to a vaguely-defined geographical area. If that did happen, it would be very unclear who had the right to use the arms. Bluewave 17:30, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
Would-be East Anglians[edit]
I was born in East Anglia and have lived here almost all my life. I would like to make some comments regarding which counties are in East Anglia, and those not.
I have always believed that Suffolk Norfolk and Cambridgeshire are what East Anglia consists of, and nothing else.
However many people who live in areas bordering East Anglia would like to share the prestige and fashionability of being within EA. So people in North Essex for example like to pretend they are in EA.
Also, because the television trasmitters extend into several counties, the regional news programmes try to pretend that EA consists of several very alien counties.
So ignore all the would-bes - East Anglia consists only of Norfolk Suffolk (and usually by most East Anglians reckoning) Cambridgeshire.
"Some people include Essex—sometimes only the northern part—and a small part of southern Lincolnshire bordering The Wash."
Regarding the comment above and this quote, I must be 'some people' as I am constantly told I live in East Anglia (Coggeshall, Essex) - however, can we have some references please, rather than 'some people this and some people that'? East Anglian Pretender 12th September 2006
Regarding the above comment also.. I'm born and bred East Anglian and have travelled the world many times over always encountering East Angles on my journeys - common conception has always been North Essex is part of EA also. East Anglian Protectorate, Feb, 2009 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.127.116.11 (talk) 22:46, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
The traditional borders of the Kingdom of East Anglia were everything North of the Stour and eveything East of the Nene. The border ran from the mouth of the River Stour to near its source where dykes or fortified ditches were built by the East Angles in the 6th and 7th centuries. There were 4 - Brent, Bran, Fleam, and Devil's Dykes of which the latter two are still quite impressive. These dykes just East of Cambridge, ran into the Fens, which at this time were an impenetrable morass. The River Nene (old course)ran through the Fens and out to its mouth in the Wash, and this formed the Northern border. If you are discussing the Kingdom of East Anglia, then it was bigger than Norfolk and Suffolk as it took in what are now parts of Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Holt100 (talk • contribs) 12:22, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
If you are referring to the borders of the ancient kingdom then it depends on the date to which you are referring, as kingdoms expanded and contracted over the course of time. If you are referring to anything else then there has never been any official definition. (Various bodies have made definitions for their own purposes, such as the statistical regions mentioned in the article, but these definitions have no official status outside their own spheres of use.) Consequently the expression "East Anglia" is defined only by how people use it, and there is considerable variation in that. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:28, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
This article describes Norwich as being the only city and largest settlement in East Anglia whilst also referring to Cambridge and Peterborough as being in within East Anglia. This seems to be a contradiction as both are cities and and Peterborough is larger than Norwich.

Map discussion[edit]
Yorkshirian recently added this new version of an old map to this article; it was removed by Deacon of Pndapetzim and re-added by Yorkshirian. I'd like to replace it with this map instead, which doesn't use boundaries. The changes were made to several articles, so to centralize discussion, please post at Talk:Mercia#Map if you have an opinion. Mike Christie (talk) 02:43, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
869 or 870?[edit]
King Edmund was killed by the Danes in 869 according to the King Edmund article, but in 870 according to the present article. Which is it? I believe the correct date is 869. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle regularly places the New Year in September, so the entry for A.D. 870, which describes Edmund's death, probably refers to the winter of 869. Eroica (talk) 14:19, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
Project Proposal[edit]
A new project Wikiproject Norfolk & Suffolk has been proposed. If interested please visit Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Proposals#Wikiproject_Norfolk_.26_Suffolk and show your support. Thank you. MortimerCat (talk) 08:29, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
Essex not in East Anglia[edit]
I've lived in Essex, and I've lived in Suffolk, but nobody I know has considered Essex to be in East Anglia. You could not say that Ilford or Romford are in East Anglian. I think its mostly eastate agents who would like the northern end of Essex to be in East Anglia. The character of people in Essex is different - more abrasive and outgoing, more Eastender. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 13:11, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- Ilford and Romford are East London NOT Essex so this is irrelevant.
- This seems to come up quite often! The problem we have, I think, is that there simply isn't a settled formal definition - government uses East of England rather than East Anglia. But there is plenty of circumstantial evidence for including northern Essex - for example, the East Anglian Daily Times circulates at least as far as Colchester. And (although personal experience is not an admissible basis for saying something in Wikipedia, I add this to balance your contrary assertion) I live in the very northernmost part of Essex (I can see Suffolk from the window) and nobody around here would say they weren't in East Anglia, I believe; they look to Ipswich as the local "big town" every bit as much as to Colchester and far more than they do to Chelmsford, say.
- If we had to be precise, I'd say the border (where people cease identifying as East Anglian) is probably something like a line running from Haverhill to Clacton. But we don't need to, and indeed shouldn't, decide that ourselves for the article.
- What we should do is ensure that the article comments on the vagueness of the definition (it already does) and also, I suggest, change Essex in the lead to parts of Essex. As you say, nobody would seriously propose Ilford to be part of East Anglia, even if further north the debate is very real. Barnabypage (talk) 13:32, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- Ilford is as East London as Bethnal Green. Hasn't been Essex for 50 years, get with the times!
- You admit that you live in North East Essex. People from that area would love to share in the prestige of being in East Anglian. The circulation of the East Anglian Daily times is no indication of any boundary since you can buy copies of newspapers from neighbouring counties in many places. I used to be a householder in that part of Essex but it still wasnt in East Anglia. If however the border with East Anglia could have magically have been moved south to include me then I would have got a large capital gain - which I think motivates much of the discussion regarding Essex. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 13:37, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- Someone has changed "sometimes Essex" to "sometimes parts of North Essex" in the last few minutes. I would agree with that change, since it at least excludes the Eastend. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 13:40, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- The someone was me, and please don't be ad hominem as to my motives in editing Wikipedia.
- The point about the East Anglian Daily Times is that there isn't a clear-cut boundary like a county boundary. It is a region without a universally-accepted official definition and in usage the meaning of the term spills over county boundaries.
- Here is a bit of a source for a definition, not perfect but a lot better than nothing for now. The Centre [of East Anglian Studies] was established at UEA in 1967 to develop and encourage the study of all aspects of the archaeology and history of Norfolk, Suffolk and the adjacent areas of Lincolnshire, Essex and Cambridgeshire. Barnabypage (talk) 13:51, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- I have now amended the lead to accurately reflect what seems to be the usage situation: that Norfolk and Suffolk are the "core" counties nobody disagrees on, that Cambridgeshire may be included in whole or in part by some users of the term, and that parts of Essex and/or Lincolnshire (but never the whole of those counties) may also be included by some users. I've sourced it to the CEAS Website, which will have to do until someone comes along with a better source; the books I have on East Anglia all contradict one another on the definition, but only give it in passing, so I think what we need to look out for is a good source which actively discusses the nomenclature issue. Barnabypage (talk) 14:16, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- Here are some better sources - "better" in that unlike the CEAS source they are overtly definitions, not "better" in that they make things any clearer!
- SOED: Norfolk and Suffolk
- Britannica: Norfolk and Suffolk; "loosely" Cambridgeshire and Essex
- Encarta: Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, and Essex Barnabypage (talk) 19:25, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- Some guide books, such as AA touring guides for example, have included Norfolk and Suffolk in the midlands, which is blatantly untue. So they are not to be trusted. 184.108.40.206 (talk) 20:57, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Encarta: Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, and Essex Barnabypage (talk) 19:25, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
(edit conflict) The "definition" is supported by the first reference. Would you now like to contribute towards actually improving the article—maybe even getting it to GA status? Chrisieboy (talk) 19:30, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- But why do you propose ignoring Britannica, Encarta, the Centre of East Anglian Studies and huge amounts of usage? Nobody disagrees (as far as I can see) that Norfolk/Suffolk/Cambridgeshire is the only official definition but that is for a fairly narrow statistical purpose. Our job here isn't to arbitrate the varying definitions; it's to reflect what reliable sources have to say about that definition.
- The fact is that the reader who comes here to be told that East Anglia undisputably encompasses all three of those counties and ends at their borders is being misled, and it makes it a less good article, not a better one, to imply that. The honest thing to do is to acknowledge the vagueness of the term.
- On consensus - I agree there was no consensus for my precise rewording. But there is no consensus for the summary removal of Essex from the definition, either; it looks like it's been there quite a while without howls of dissent.
- So can I suggest something along these lines (in haste, so I am sure somebody can phrase it more elegantly):
- Although the only governmental definition of the region is as comprising the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, the term is frequently used to also include parts of northern Essex, and occasionally southern Lincolnshire. Its extent into Cambridgeshire is also debated.
- How about that? Barnabypage (talk) 20:00, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- "Sometimes" would be far more accurate than "frequently". 126.96.36.199 (talk) 21:00, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
There are parts of north Essex and Lincolnshire that look like nearby East Anglia, but that dosnt mean they are in East Aglia. I bet parts of France look like neighbouring Germany or vice versa. And they have each others newspapers available for sale in the border regions. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 21:34, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- Agreed the newspaper issue was a bit of a distraction! But the discussion has now moved on to the fact that reliable sources define East Anglia in different ways. They don't, as far as I know, disagree on where the border of France and Germany lies. That's the problem here - it's not a clearly-defined area which people with agendas are trying to extend through Wikipedia, it simply doesn't have a universally accepted definition. (I've even seem some definitions including Bedfordshire! But since that seems the least common addition of them all, maybe it's one we can ignore for now...) Barnabypage (talk) 21:43, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- The definition is a historical one and is not really supported in todays boundary splits. The real problem is the date at which you consider the area definition.
- There have been many definitions to date which have spread the area. The general accepted 700-800 AD regional definition would have been North folk and Suouth folk (of the East Angles) down to the river Stour boundaries and along the Ouse the boundaries in the West following the (now diverted) river. At this time the areas you are concerned about, namely Essex, would have been part of the East Saxon's kingdom (Essex - "East Sax").
- The region of east anglia is the area that was controlled by the east angles, and that is fairly well defined ... the usage of the counties in various maps showing cambridgeshire and others is normally because these counties are shown in full rather than the small parts of them that lie within East Anglia.
- Post 1900 there has been a tendency to include parts of Essex, but that is normally down to regional wants as government voting maps show Norfolk and Suffolk in the midlands
- Chaosdruid (talk) 22:24, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- There is this map which shows it in basic detail from 800 AD - the real problem is what is East Anglia now ? If we accept that one of the historical areas is the crrent one (and not something arbritary such as "the one from East Anglian TV News showed it covered North London" etc)...Chaosdruid (talk) 23:31, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
- Exactly. The article is East Anglia, not Historic definitions of East Anglia. It is only sensible that it reflects the current variation in definitions. We are, after all, here for the reader who might come along wanting to know what East Anglia means... Barnabypage (talk) 01:07, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
Interestingly I found this obscurity - the Roman Catholic Diocese of East Anglia is pretty close to the smaller more compact version...Chaosdruid (talk) 03:21, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
If you want to move North Essex from East Anglia, you'll have to assume that the well known paintings of Constable and Gainsborough are not set in East Anglia. [Special:Contributions/18.104.22.168|126.96.36.199]] (talk) 22:06, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
- Its absurd to say "move it from East Anglia", as it's never been in East Anglia. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 10:17, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
- Some would be in East Anglia, some not. Both Constable and Gainsborough lived in Suffolk. Near the border. Constable was only a few feet north, in fact the machinery part of Flatford Mill which belonged to his family either straddles the border or is inches to the north, as its been a while since I've been there but I recall there is a river lock to the south where I believe the border is. Gainsborough lived in Sudbury, Suffolk, where Gainsborough's House is. Sudbury is in Suffolk, but near the border. Constables painting The Hay Wain is painted from the Suffolk side of the river. Essex can be seen over the other side of the river. Willy Lott's Cottage seen on the left is still there, so it is easy to identify the exact viewpoint. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 10:51, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- Quite. But the article is still a mess in this respect: Essex is highlighted in the map but not mentioned anywhere in the text, although Colchester is. The poor reader is going to be very confused. Can we try to come to some consensus on how we refer to the "arguable East Anglian-ness" of parts of Essex in the lead para? Any suggestions? Barnabypage (talk) 11:19, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
- The first paragraph seems OK. Why mention Essex at all? Only people who live in north-east Essex would desperately like it thought that where they live is in East Anglia, but nobody who lives in Suffolk or Norfolk thinks that it is. The pink Essex ought to be removed from the map. An analogy would be if a lot of vocal people in Britain tried to persuade Americans that Britain was actually the 51st state and went on and on about it, tweeked a map, did a lot of would-be-crafty insinuation and implication etc in Wikipedia to lobby to that end that end as a slippery-slope tactic. But that would still not make Britain part of America. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 20:26, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Quite. But the article is still a mess in this respect: Essex is highlighted in the map but not mentioned anywhere in the text, although Colchester is. The poor reader is going to be very confused.

Essex has got more in common with the Eastend than with Suffolk. I propose renaming Essex "Greater Eastend" to reflect the character of its inhabitants. Lol. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 11:03, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- It's quite worrying that some "contributors" believe there's "prestige" in being East Anglian, especially if it only encompasses the 2 counties of inbred farmers.
In the article, it says that parts of East Anglia are semi-arid. I have seen two contenders for the title of "driest place in the UK", St. Osyth and Clacton-on-Sea, and neither of those places are even close to being semi-arid. For now, I will not remove the statement in question, but I would love some examples of places classified as semi-arid, with climate data. If I don't see any within a reasonable amount of time (at least 1 week), I will remove the statement, as looking at what are called the driest places in the UK, seeing as they're not close to being semi-arid, this statement seems patently ridiculous. 1brettsnyder (talk) 23:13, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
- Statement removed 1brettsnyder (talk) 03:12, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
- Last time I was around St Osyth, I recall walking though a lot of lush knee-high grass. So not semi-arid. Edit: although on second thoughts maybe that was just because it was near water. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 20:50, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
Confused with Eastern England[edit]
Maybe much of the confusion about which counties are or are not in East Anglia comes from people thinking that Eastern England is the same as East Anglia. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 10:14, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
"West Anglia" definition[edit]
I notice there are various institutions, such as universities and railway organisations, which use the phrase "West Anglia" in their name. Is this a formally defined region of East Anglia, or a bordering region? Or is it just local authority publicity jargon (like "1066 Country" for Hastings)? I think the article could benefit from a brief paragraph explaining the difference between the terms "East Anglia" and "West Anglia", for the benefit of most of us Brits who grew up believing there was 'no such place' as West Anglia! :-) Butcherscross (talk) 13:28, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
- I know it may sound a little idiotic, but it seems to me that most of them are using it to get back at East Anglia (EA) for not including them lol. West Anglia, for these strangely named companies etc., seems to be the area to the west of East Anglia down to the outskirts of London. For example the College of West Anglia has a campus in King's Lynn (in EA) and one is Cambridge (not EA), the West Anglia line (of the railways) is a Cambridge and Stansted from London service and the West Anglia battalion of the boy's brigade is Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes.
- I suppose they all sound better than they would otherwise be called ("The Middle & East Saxony and South & Middle Anglia Railway line" or the "South Anglia and East Saxony College") and it's competition for East Anglia.
- Maybe we should invade them and make one great big Anglian empire, oh, hang on, isn't that what England is? Chaosdruid (talk) 01:25, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
Essex revisited[edit]
I'm aware that the whole Essex-in-East-Anglia issue raises strong feelings. However, I really think we do need to revisit it: the article is currently very confused on this matter, with Essex omitted from the lede but mentioned in several places elsewhere as if it were the part of the region. Can anyone think of a constructive way forward with this, bearing in mind the long discussions above? Barnabypage (talk) 16:20, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- I've suggested creating WikiProject East of England and merging the current 3 projects in this area : Wikipedia:WikiProject East Anglia, Wikipedia:WikiProject Bedfordshire and Wikipedia:WikiProject Hertfordshire. The discussion can be found here.Wilbysuffolk (Talk to me!) 21:02, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
- Essex is part of the East of England governmental region, but it certainly isn't part of East Anglia, either culturally or historically, and it isn't mentioned in the article. The map needs to be changed.Gymnophoria (talk) 19:00, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
Need a section in article about the differing definitions of East Anglia[edit]
I recall the article used to have a reasoned and good discussion of the different opinions about what is and what is not in East Anglia, but looking at the article today I cannot see anything about this. I was indeed shocked to see "Large sections of East Anglia (including parts of Lincolnshire)....". That's the first time in my life I can recall seeing or hearing that Lincolnshire is in East Anglia! Could also include mention of confusion with East Of England region.
As East Anglia has a lot of prestige, then people in areas bordering East Anglia are motivated to include their area within East Anglia.
Everyone agrees that both Norfolk and Suffolk are indisputably in East Anglia. Most people would agree that Cambridgeshire is in East Anglia. People living in northern Essex like to claim that it is in East Anglia, although I personally would not agree, and without doing a survey I would expect that everyone living in Norfolk and Suffolk would say that northern Essex is not in East Anglia. I've never heard of any group of people claiming that any other area is in East Anglia.
The claim that Lincolnshire is in East Anglia must be due either to someone confusing East Anglia with the Eastern Region, or someone doing some soapboxing. 18.104.22.168 (talk) 09:20, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
- Do you mean this section:
- It includes the counties of Norfolk and Suffolk, with part (or all of the pre-1974) Cambridgeshire. Some people include Essex—sometimes only the northern part—and a small part of southern Lincolnshire bordering The Wash.
- which I found in an edit from about 2008. It's not referenced - I seem to recall there was more about what the region is and so on as well but I can't find it by picking out odd edits every now and again.
- I did, however, look for some definitions. I can find Oxford dictionaries, Meriam-Webster, Collins and Enc Britannica all of which seem to suggest that Norfolk and Suffolk are the core of the region but that it also contains parts of Cambridgeshire and Essex. This would, perhaps, support the pre-1974 Cambridgeshire element from the section above. It would also be sensible to include northern areas of Essex - the area south to Colchester certainly.
- This is all a bit unfortunate as it would seem that we have the "wrong" definition here - the inclusion of Peterborough might be spurious and the exclusion of northern Essex almost certainly has - which ends up having all sorts of impacts on other pages in the project.
- There is, obviously, some cross over between the idea of East Anglia and the East of England, but this is confused by government statistical areas changing - the old Economic planning regions, Standard statistical regions and Civil defence areas would seem to be closer to the current definition we have here - although that's obviously been arbitrarily decided by someone at some point in the past - whereas Redcliffe-Maud provinces would seem to be where the idea of including bits of Lincolnshire have come from (for all of this (and more) see Historical and alternative regions of England).
- I've no idea how to deal with this, although a section about the definitions and so on would seem to be a good idea and we have a number of sources there which are clearly suitable to use. It's reasonable to assume that it's going to be debatable and that there's no clear and obvious defining line that can be drawn on a map outside of the clear inclusion of Norfolk and Suffolk. Blue Square Thing (talk) 11:16, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
- Exactly. Our goal here should be to give due coverage to the lack of a single, clear-cut definition, rather than trying to achieve one ourselves. Barnabypage (talk) 12:19, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
- Although it creates an issue for us. Do we, for example, include the University of Essex and Stansted in this article (and others dealing with similar coverage such as Transport in East Anglia)? And if we do, where do we draw the line within Essex and Cambridgeshire? Is the M1 in East Anglia or not?
- My gut feeling says to include all of Cambs and Peterborough in such articles and to specifically include north-east Essex locations, but you just know that's going to cause issues! It would be helpful if we could get some sort of working criteria. Blue Square Thing (talk) 14:37, 15 August 2013 (UTC)
- Maybe for Talk page purposes we could achieve some kind of consensus on dividing the world into three parts: 1. definitely EA (Norfolk/Suffolk), 2. EA by some definitions but not all (e.g. parts of Cambs and Essex), 3. not EA by any sane or mainstream definition (for example, I don't think anybody seriously contends that southern Essex, or northern Lincolnshire, would be part of EA).
- Then the article could focus on 1., cover aspects of 2. in a little less detail, and not bother with 3.?
- Not an ideal solution, I know, but in the absence of a real-world consensus on what EA actually encompasses, it might be better than nothing and at least allow us to move forward with making the article reflect the real world a bit better. Barnabypage (talk) 17:54, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
- BTW it's interesting to see how the editors at Central Europe handle this and also to read some of the talk page discussion at Midwestern United States. Doubtless there are other examples of regions with less-than-clear-cut definitions, these are just two that sprang to mind. Barnabypage (talk) 11:25, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
Cambridgeshire in East Anglia[edit]
Similarly to Essex, Cambridge should not be included as generally people do not consider Southern Cambridge and, without a doubt, Huntingdonshire as being part of EA. As with Northern Essex, only the Fenland and parts of East Cambridge are historically considered part of East Anglia which is the minority of the county. Therefore this page and map should be revised to the true boundaries. 18.104.22.168 (talk) 23:02, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
Article name[edit]
This article is mis-named. East Anglia, in normal English usage, refers to Norfolk and Suffolk, or to the ancient kingdom, not to statistical region that most people will never have heard of. DuncanHill (talk) 13:19, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

I'm looking for a bit of info on the Catalogue Visibility Options Extension for WooCommerce before I buy it. I've tried contacting WooThemes, but haven't had any response.
Will this extension hide the prices of variable products as well as simple products? I've tried using code to hide the prices until the user has logged in, but it still shows the prices for variable products after the user has selected the variables.
If this extension does what I need it to, I will go ahead and buy it, but at the moment, I'm still a little unsure.
I look forward to your responses.

I'm looking to turn an image into an Add to Cart button. Basically I've got a page wich displays 3 images (representing 3 different products). What I'd like is that when you click on either of them, the corresponding product will be added to the cart and the user will be redirected to their cart (I assume this will redirect itself with the use of the "Redirect to cart after adding a product to the cart (on single product pages)" option enabled in the Woocommerce backend).
Not sure where I found this snippet of code but I've tried adding a
<a class="button add_to_cart_button product_type_%s"> to the image but no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

by Julie Snyder
Your baby's moving around now. Once kids start crawling, walking and running, they're more likely to get hurt.
Most of these injuries aren't serious, but a fall or other accident might result in bleeding.
"My 22-month-old daughter had never had more than a scrape or bruise until yesterday. She fell and her top tooth went through her bottom lip. The amount of blood that was pouring out scared me," Leanne says.
If something like this happens, what should you do?
What to do when your baby is bleeding
Any time a blood vessel breaks, bleeding occurs. Sometimes it's just a drip; other times it can be quite dramatic and frightening, spurting or pouring out, even when the injury isn't life-threatening.
Apply firm pressure directly to the wound. This action almost always stops the bleeding. When you slow the flow of blood, it allows time for a clot to form and the healing process to begin.
Stop the bleeding
For severe bleeding call 911 or your country's emergency response number. Act quickly if your baby appears to be in shock or has lost consciousness. Raise the part of the body that's bleeding to reduce the blood flow to that area.
✓ Apply firm pressure to the cut with a cloth, bandage or your fingers. Hold into place for five to ten minutes.
✓ If blood soaks through the bandage, place a clean on over the soaked one and continue to hold pressure
✓ Don't take the bandage off to look. Releasing the pressure can loosen the clot and start the bleeding again.
Do not use a tourniquet to stop the bleeding. It can cause permanent damage to an arm or limb. If you're not able to control the bleeding with direct pressure, call 911.
Tend the wound
Once the bleeding stops, you can clean and bandage the wound.
✓ Gently wash the cut with water and pat dry
✓ Bandage the wound (antibiotic ointment may be used)
✓ Change the bandage daily
✓ Watch for signs of infection
If there's an object in the wound
✓ If possible, swab or wash small object out of the wound
✓ Leave a large embedded object in place
✓ Apply firm pressure on either side of the object. If bleeding doesn't stop, call 911.
✓ Lay your child down
✓ If the bleeding stops, gently cover the wound and object with a sterile dressing
✓ Build up the padding around the wound until it is higher than the object
✓ Bandage without pressing on the object
✓ Take your child to the hospital
Caring for the scar
The scar continues to heal and change for over a year. Apply sunscreen or cover the wound with sun-blocking clothing. The pigment in the skin may change if you expose the scar to direct sunlight, making it more obvious.
When to call the doctor
If you baby has any of these symptoms, contact your doctor.
• Bleeding doesn't stop after applying direct pressure for 10 minutes
• It is a deep puncture wound
• The wound is on the hands, face, neck or genitals
• An animal or person bit your baby
• The wounds shows signs of infections such as redness, drainage, increased swelling, worse pain or your baby develops a fever
Have you had a scare when your baby fell or got a cut? Were you able to stop the bleeding at home?

U.S. can afford to help children in dire straits
Thinking about the tragic situations that have initiated the 50,000-plus child refugee problem on our Southern border, a reflection on the exodus from Iraq after our invasion puts the current situation more in focus. The countries surrounding Iraq, all of which are geographically smaller and economically poorer than Texas, had to absorb 2.5 million people fleeing the violence in their home state. Now, it's reported that present-day life in Honduras and El Salvador is more than twice as dangerous as Iraq was during our incursion.
Corrupt governments and drug gangs have pushed parents to do the unthinkable: send their children on a thousand-mile journey to an uncertain outcome in a foreign country, often on their own or with some stranger of dubious credentials, for a fee that represents most of the families' assets. Because of our laws, unaccompanied children who arrive from countries other than Mexico and Canada must have immigration hearings before being sent back. This could take years, after which the majority will be sent home. Perhaps the parents know that eventually their kids will be forced to return, but hope the intervening time will be long enough so that things will get better in their towns.
I also find some irony in the fact that one of the first American casualties in the Iraq conflict was a soldier who was not a citizen, but had come to the United States from Guatemala at age 14 – he, too, unaccompanied by an adult.

Fifth-gen iPad schematics leaked?
Schematics of Apple's fifth-generation iPad have allegedly been leaked, according to a new report. The fifth-gen iPad will apparently be 169.48 mm wide, as compared to the fourth-gen's 185.8 mm width. It appears the height will be reduced to 240 mm from 241.3 mm, and the fifth-gen iPad will be 7.5 mm thick, a notable drop from the previous incarnation's 9.55 mm thickness. As long expected, the next iPad will more closely resemble the iPad mini's design.
Notably, this new report also notes "main elements of the device, including the home button," will stay "largely" the same. There is no mention of Touch ID on the device, though a recent report suggests the second-generation iPad mini will have the feature. [via AppleInsider]

What is the difference between a Masters in Fine Arts and a masters in Visual Arts?
An MFA is the type of degree, like a bachelors in arts (BA) or masters in science (MS). Visual Arts would be the focus or major. So you would get a MFA in visual arts the same way you can get a BA in English or an MS in physics.

SEOUL, March 27 (Yonhap) -- North Korea on Wednesday blasted the memorial speech given by South Korean President Park Geun-hye to mark the third anniversary of the sinking of a warship that left 46 sailors dead.
The spokesman for the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland said in a question and answer session with the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) that Park's remarks made at Daejeon National Cemetery, 164 kilometers south of Seoul, on Tuesday represented "an unpardonable provocation against the DPRK and a blatant challenge to it."
The DPRK stands for the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the North's official name.
The official said Park slandered the social system in the North by talking about "hunger" and "isolation" and "let loose a string of confrontational rhetoric."
Park urged the communist country to change for the better to take care of its people and said that it must immediately abandon any thought that nuclear weapons will protect its regime.
"The only way North Korea will survive is if it voluntarily lays down its nuclear weapons, missiles, provocations and threats and transform into a responsible member of the international community," she said.
The North's committee in charge of holding talks and engaging in inter-Korean cooperation also said the claims that the North is responsible for the sinking of the Cheonan are a fabrication of the truth.
A probe conducted by international experts concluded that a North Korean torpedo probably fired from a submarine sank the corvette on March 26, 2010, although Pyongyang has persistently argued it had nothing to do with the incident.
"The sinking case is a hideous farce orchestrated by the group of (former President) Lee Myung-bak as part of its moves for confrontation and war against the DPRK." the official told KCNA, adding that the truth of the case has already been brought to light.
He claimed that the new administration occupying South Korea's presidential office Cheong Wa Dae is repeating the same confrontation racket of the proceeding regime.
"(Such remarks) clearly show that the present regime is a confrontation-minded regime little different from the Lee Myung-bak regime," the official said, and pointed out that Pyongyang warned against Park's "venomous remarks" made in the past.
He said that South Korea is now warned again that heightened confrontational frenzy is pushing the DPRK's patience and self-restraint to the limit.
The official said Park should act with discretion and that inter-Korean relations are at an all time low, increasing the danger of an all-out war on the Korean Peninsula.

In Beautiful New Film Test, a Dancer Confronts the First HIV Test
Test, writer-director-producer Chris Mason Johnson's second feature film, is set in the San Francisco of 1985, early in the AIDS epidemic, and follows a young dancer as he struggles to navigate both the dance world and the increasingly unfriendly world outside. In the studio, taunts of "Dance like a man!" thwart Frankie's (dancer and first-time actor Scott Marlowe) attempts to transition from understudy to lead in his modern dance company. Out on the streets, he faces antigay slurs and the looming questions posed by the advent of an HIV test. Risk and paranoia complicate Frankie's budding romance with veteran dancer Todd (Matthew Risch), and Test provides no easy answers.
Johnson himself performed in ballet and modern dance companies early in his career before transitioning to the film industry, where he was worked as an executive and script editor. He has also taught screenwriting and film production at Rutgers University, Amherst College, and California College of the Arts. Earlier this week, he answered some of our questions about the making of and inspirations behind Test.
HIV Plus: You were a dancer at around the same time that Test is set. Were your experiences in the dance world your inspiration for the movie?
Chris Mason Johnson: I was a teenager in the mid-to-late 80s ... so I was there during that whole era. So yeah, I drew from my own experience. If you're a novelist you just sit down to write, if you're a painter you just paint, but if you're a filmmaker you're dependent on all these other people and money to do your work. I was like, "I want to make mine personal. I want to just do it. I don't care if I get the seal of approval from the industry." Then I turned to what was most on my mind. This project had been germinating in my mind for literally 10 years, and it had taken all kinds of different forms. But basically I wanted to deal with the dance world in those early years of the epidemic. For a long time I just didn't think this story was worth telling. Who wants to hear about me, who wants to hear about this? And so I was really nervous. [But] it was something that I really had a desire to tell and had for a long time, and I think the time was right.
Frankie (Scott Marlowe, left) walking down an unfriendly San Francisco street.
A lot of films about the AIDS epidemic focus on activism and people who took a political stance, but you chose to focus on regular people who were living through the crisis instead. Did you think it was time to portray a different perspective?
Yeah, that's exactly right. The movies that they've made so far have either had a political angle or politically motivated characters, or they've been deathbed narratives, which is understandable. But this is not a movie about being sick; this is a movie about the fear of being sick. That was the dominant experience. Even people who later became positive, of course, still went through a phase of not knowing and being afraid. So they had a universal sort of existential experience, and I hadn't seen that represented at all. [Test is] not another movie about people getting sick and being sick. Not to knock those movies. We needed those. But this is a smaller angle that has just been overlooked.
Todd (Matthew Risch) looks up at Frankie as they take a break from a party.
The title, Test, applies to a variety of themes. We see Frankie's dance skills tested in rehearsal and onstage, and we feel the gay community's anxiety over whether to embrace the newly available HIV blood test. Toward the end of the movie, you pose a question about the test of monogamy. How do you think the atmosphere depicted in Test contributed to the growth of monogamy, and has the impact of that change reached to today?
It's a complicated issue and a complicated question. I am obviously all in favor of gay civil rights and gay marriage and all that, as we all are. It's fantastic. But also, there was this moment when people got pushed into monogamous behavior maybe a little earlier, though for different reasons, than might have been otherwise, because of the epidemic. My point with all that is just to complicate the history, to remember all the contradictions and to ... remember the details. I don't want to draw any broad conclusions. I think the early epidemic as it's depicted in the movie ... it was all about shaming. And I think our trajectory since then as a community, both positive and negative, has been to reject that shaming and to claim some dignity and respect. AIDS shaming is still a powerful thing in a lot of communities, but in the time that the movie depicts, it was overwhelming. So I think that's moved in a positive direction, but there's still a lot of work to do.
In the movie Frankie is told during rehearsal to "dance like a man," an idea that haunts him as he strives to join the main dance company. Was that something you experienced yourself? Why did you choose to include it in Test?
"Dance like a man" was something I definitely heard in the rehearsal studio. I was trying to represent something that was real, that phenomenon in the dance world. The problem is, people aren't careful enough or smart enough to separate out the performance of gender, which is masculinity/feminity, from sexual identity. So you get these guys who are basically being told "be less gay," and that's the wrong message. The message is, in this dance, it's a dramatic scene with a man and a woman, and we need to believe you desire the woman. That's a difficult acting challenge that has nothing to do with who you are. Also, I found a really interesting resonance with the early AIDS epidemic because in those early years, when the press and the public really scapegoated and shamed, there was this sense of "you're worthless, you deserve to die" and "you had this coming," etc. There's a weird overlap with "dance like a man," "the way you move is no good," "who you are is wrong." So Frankie sort of had it coming from all sides. I definitely just wanted to shine a little light on that issue, which still exists, and I think that ... we still don't know how to deal with it.
TEST Trailer from Serious Productions on Vimeo.
Scott Marlowe, who plays Frankie, portrays the dichotomy of fear and desire brilliantly throughout Test, and I was surprised to learn he's a dancer who had never acted professionally before. How did you come across such a talent?
I found him in San Francisco, and we worked together for six months, workshopping, developing scenes. I taught him acting technique, and he was just really naturally talented at it. I think that was a real discovery with Scott Marlowe. And I think his dancing is really relatable for people. Most people say [they] don't know much about dance ... but then they still know what they like. And I think the way he moves, it just appeals to a broad audience. And that's not always true. It goes back a little bit to that "dance like a man" thing, actually. There's just something about the way he moves. It's not like he's trying to be straight or he's trying to butch it up at all. He's just kind of naturally masculine in a way that appeals to gay and straight, and that isn't fake.
Frankie (front) leads a modern dance choreographed by Sidra Bell for Test.
Test centers on a beautiful dance that you and [choreographer] Sidra Bell worked on together. The dance, featuring the main male cast of professional dancers, strikes a uniquely eerie tone. What ideas and images did you draw from to create the choreography?
Well, the choreography, I wanted to do several things. The thing that most movies that deal with this general subject do is that they take the sex out and they take the eroticism out. That's kind of understandable, because it's very difficult to deal with disease and sex simultaneously. But what the dance offered was an opportunity to put all the eroticism back in: the male body, they're shirtless, they're vulnerable, they're beautiful. In terms of the image motif, we worked with all of these sort of creepy, morbid gestures that we lifted from some paintings by Egon Schiele, who was a Viennese painter. It's kind of a visual metaphor for the whole situation. You have the sexiness and the eroticism and the naked bodies, and it's all men, of course. But then you also have this sort of weird creepy edge to it that represents the sort of paranoia and fear of disease.
How did you pick the perfect music for both the dances and for the Walkman that Frankie constantly listens to?
There's an original score that Ceiri Torjussen [film composer] made, and ... he did a great job. Usually, you finish the movie and then the composer watches it and scores it. But we did all the dancing in two weeks ... and he was doing the music at the same time. So that was much more like a theater dance experience than a typical movie experience. And then for the '80s music, [it] was just fun to find these great things like Bronski Beat and Laurie Anderson. Really emblematic '80s things, not the usual clichés. We wanted to make choices that felt ... iconic but were not so overused.
If you could soundtrack your own life, how would it sound?
Well, I think some of it would sound a lot like Frankie's soundtrack. I would definitely have Laurie Anderson. I would definitely have Tchaikovsky's Serenade. And also just lots of world music. because when there's no lyrics I can really just float. Lots of bossa nova. I would have a bossa nova–scored life.

There are 144 comments on the Politico story from May 20, 2012, titled Gay activists to Obama: What's next?. In it, Politico reports that:
President Barack Obama 's embrace of same-sex marriage was a major moment for gay-rights advocates - historic, emotional, a cause for celebration and more praise for an administration with a strong record on these issues.

Seriously? Obviously no one ever taught you how to make a point. Or form an argument. And I'm also willing to go with "was hugged too much as a child."
Anyway, real quick...animals can't communicate with humans in English. They can grasp commands for treats, sure, but recognition is a little bit less complex than an open discussion about pursuing a relationship. Even if America was fine with this, the issue of consent would never be off the table.
Humans don't have that problem, what with the vocalizing their desires and needs and such.

The 'Gays' are everywhere. I suppose one of the reasons guys are having sex with other guys is the heifer females are too big and smelly to have sex with. There are so many obese young women it's frightening. Like Morrison said the world on you depends that life will never end. You female hogs had better loose weight, take a bath, and study up on being sexy or these young guys will all be huggin the pole.

Whenever I encounter a fanatical nut like you, Bob, I have to wonder if you're in the closet. Are you secretly gay, do you just hate yourself and what you are? Is that why you're so hysterical?
It's not uncommon. A lot of gay Chrsters are in the closet.

Title: Just like being there – Combining video with geo-spatial data by Matti Seikkula
Combining the visualisation of being there with the knowledge of where you are and with relevant information about that particular location is a powerful concept. Its potential uses include;
- Management of transport infrastructure assets such as highways and railways;
- Providing a preview for tourist and field experiences for tourism operators and emergency services;
- Providing training experiences based on real world locales;
In this presentation Matti Seikkula of Microsoft partner e-Spatial will outline some of the 'being there' experiences they are developing combining Virtual Earth, Silverlight, SQL Server 2008 and other technologies to provide a cost-effective and thin n-tier browser-based viewer that combines video, geo-spatial information and context relevant data. He will be discussing their experiences with managing customer requirements, working with the newer technologies they are leveraging and how to deal with some of the tricky architecture issues surrounding geo-spatial data representation and its synchronisation with video and back-end information stores.
About Matti Seikkula:
Matti has more than 18 years experience in systems design, software development, architecture and data modelling and over 12 years experience in spatial integration. Specializing on geo-spatial, e-Spatial have to be industry and technology independent, which means that Matti needs to maintain a constant process of research and development. This ensures that e-Spatial is always aware of the implication of new technologies, development environments and standards. Matti is also a recognized expert on New Zealand and international geospatial standards.
Matti holds a Masters degree of Computer Sciences from Joensuu University, Finland, 1990.

Texas BBQ: Meat, smoke & love (Hardback)Jonas Cramby
Hardback Published: 05/06/2014
- In stock
Click & Collect From your local shop
There is only one state in the US which lives up to the epithet 'the best BBQ in the world', and that is Texas. But what is BBQ? Traditional grilling means cooking a piece of meat as quickly as possible with a high heat, but BBQ is exactly the opposite - this is slow cooking at low temperatures. The meat doesn't dry up, but remains super juicy and slow cooking renders even cheap and chewy cuts tender and tasty. When the heat source is charcoal, wood shavings or wood, you automatically get an unbeatable spice in the form of perfumed smoke. In Texas BBQ you will get to learn all these techniques. It is a simple step-by-step guide to how to make the perfect Texas-style BBQ at home, whether you have an ordinary outdoor grill or a professional smoker. Learn about what sort of wood is suited to a particular meat, exact grilling times and smoking temperatures. But first and foremost, you will discover how to achieve a perfect, tender, juicy and smoked 'pulled pork' or 'brisket'. There are even recipes for side dishes - everything from grilled corn salad, via three varieties of Mac'n'cheese to a cheesy chile con queso. Fabulous mouthwatering photos and a fun step-by-step design will have you rushing to the grill as soon as you can.

ATLANTA (AP) - Andres Galarraga quickly showed the Atlanta Braves what they were missing last year.
Galarraga, out last season because of a cancerous tumor in his back, hit a go-ahead solo homer in the seventh inning that led the Braves to a season-opening 2-0 win Monday against the Colorado Rockies.
Andruw Jones followed Galarraga's 400-foot drive with another homer against Pedro Astacio.
Greg Maddux improved to 6-0 on opening day, allowing five hits in 7 2/3 innings. The four-time Cy Young winner struck out six and walked two - both intentionally, and is 9-2 against Colorado.
HEAD:Mets 2, Padres 1
NEW YORK (AP) - Derek Bell hit a tiebreaking homer in the eighth inning in his first game for the Mets at Shea Stadium, and New York, behind a well-rested Al Leiter, beat the San Diego Padres.
Leiter (1-0) didn't make the 7,200-mile trip from Port St. Lucie, Fla., to Tokyo for the season-opening two-game series against the Chicago Cubs and looked fresh because of it.
No longer the Mets' ace after the team acquired 22-game winner Mike Hampton, Leiter pitched like a No. 1 starter in his first game since not retiring a batter in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series against Atlanta last year. The left-hander allowed one run, five hits and no walks in eight innings, striking out seven.
Cardinals 7, Cubs 1
ST. LOUIS (AP) - Mark McGwire's aching back was the only bad news for the St. Louis Cardinals on opening day.
McGwire, who missed the last two spring training games because of back spasms, was a late lineup scratch.
His replacement at first base, Craig Paquette, lined a three-run homer in the first inning, and his replacement in the cleanup slot, Fernando Tatis, had an RBI-single, a walk and two steals against the Chicago Cubs.
Astros-Pirates postponed
PITTSBURGH (AP) - The Houston Astros and Pittsburgh Pirates have never met on opening day in Pittsburgh. Their rainout Monday night means they must wait at least a day to play the final opener in Three Rivers Stadium.
The Astros and Pirates now will play their opener at 6:05 p.m. CDT Tuesday on what originally was a day off for both teams.
It was the first opening day rainout in Pittsburgh since 1982.
Marlins 6, Giants 4
MIAMI (AP) - For one night, at least, the Florida Marlins looked a lot better than they did in 1999. Or in 1998.
Alex Fernandez outpitched former teammate Livan Hernandez, and the Marlins beat the San Francisco Giants in the season opener for both teams.
Florida won't be printing World Series tickets just yet. Last year Fernandez pitched the Marlins to victory in their opener, but they lost 16 of the next 21 games and finished with the worst record in the major leagues for the second consecutive season.
Reds 3, Brewers 3 (5, tie)
CINCINNATI (AP) - A steady rain spoiled Ken Griffey Jr.'s eagerly awaited homecoming, letting up just long enough for the slugging center fielder to get a pre-game ovation and two empty at-bats.
Then, it returned to wash away one of the most closely watched games of Griffey's life. The Cincinnati Reds blew a three-run lead and wound up tied with the Milwaukee Brewers in the sixth inning.
All statistics from Monday's game count, leaving Davey Lopes with a unusual debut as Brewers manager. This was the first time in the majors that teams opened with a tie since April 12, 1965, when the St. Louis-Chicago game at Wrigley Field was called because of darkness after 11 innings with the score 10-10.
Dodgers 10, Expos 4
MONTREAL (AP) - With one big swing, Eric Karros silenced the Montreal Expos' largest opening-crowd since 1993.
Karros hit a grand slam and the Los Angeles Dodgers overcame Vladimir Guerrero's two home runs, beating the Expos before 51,249 fans.
Dodgers ace Kevin Brown (1-0) allowed three runs on Guerrero's RBI single in the first and a two-run shot by the Expos slugger in the fifth. Guerrero later hit a solo home run.
Todd Hundley also homered for Los Angeles and Gary Sheffield added a two-run triple off Expos starter Dustin Hermanson (0-1).
Los Angeles took a 6-3 lead in the seventh when Anthony Telford walked Dodgers newcomer Shawn Green with the bases loaded and one out. Karros homered on a 1-1 pitch from Scott Strickland for his second career slam.

|Official difficulty

|Talk to Denulth in Burthorpe.
|Official difficulty
|The Imperial Guard raid was a failure, and Dunstan's son has been captured by the trolls!
Journey through Trollheim to the Troll Stronghold, and rescue him!
|Items required
|Enemies to defeat
Start this Quest by speaking with Denulth in Burthorpe, located north of the Heroes' Guild in the tent. After talking to Denulth, go to The cave and speak to Saba about finding another way to the stronghold, he will direct you to Tenzing's house, following the path northwest, then going southwest when you reach the wounded soldier. Once you reach Tenzing's house, climb over the stile to begin the journey up the mountain. Tenzing sells climbing boots for 12 coins each if you don't have them. Follow the path until you see some rocks to the north. Put your boots on and climb over them. Then, go east and enter the arena.
This is where players meet a huge troll called Dad. He will say that nobody goes past without defeating him. He is level 101 and uses a tree to hit with Melee. He can hit over 20 and send players flying, stunning them temporarily. Prayer shouldn't be used here but saved for the level 113 later on unless you have a prayer potion. Dad can no longer be safespotted by standing behind a spectator, but instead standing next to the western gate and attacking with either Ranged or Magic (using a halberd is a good melee alternative). When Dad is low on hitpoints, he will ask you to spare his life. You cannot attack him from here on, but he may try to hit you still. After this players will be able to pass through the exit.
The CaveEdit
Enter the cave, which will be U-shaped in the inside, and go past the level 69 and 71 Mountain trolls. Soon, you'll be at a spiral mountain. Level 68 Thrower trolls will range players here as they walk past, so you may run and activate Protect from Missiles, or you take a shortcut by climbing the rocks and cutting across to the south-west side with sufficient Agility levels. Don't climb the mountain, but make your way southwest to reach a plateau full of mountain trolls similar to Death Plateau. There's a sleeping troll called Mushroom, as well as a huge fortress, Troll Stronghold, where players must enter.
Inside the StrongholdEdit
Inside are some more mountain trolls (levels 69 and 71). From the entrance, walk south until you see a door on the west wall. Enter and go north to find Troll Generals (level 113). They wield huge granite knives and mauls, with which they can hit up to 40. This is where Protect from Melee prayer should be used because they only use melee. Kill one to get a prison key.
- Note: They can also be killed using the Hit & Run technique if you trap them near the ladder, or if the troll is standing near the table, you can hide behind it as a safespot. If you lure him out of the room and run behind the table, he will become stuck).
Prison BreakEdit
Once you have the key, go back south, east through the door, and then go to the very north end of the stronghold. Climb down the stairs, enter the locked door with prison key, and climb down again to reach jail. You'll see two sleeping prison guards called Twig and Berry. Both are level 71. If you have level 30 Thieving, pickpocket both to get cell key 1 and cell key 2. If not, kill them for the keys. You can safespot Berry from the vacant jail cell next to Eadgar's cell. The same can be done with Twig, but he must be awoken first and lured over. Free both Eadgar and Godric, then exit the prison by going south to the secret exit.
Finishing UpEdit
Head south-east and climb over the rocks, or use a games necklace to return to Burthorpe, and talk to Dunstan the blacksmith for your reward. He is located in the more north-east corner of the city.

A viscous-type dynamic hysteresis model (DHM) that is compatible with any static hysteresis model is described. In contrast to existing dynamic models, the DHM is characterized by fixed desired properties over an infinite frequency range and provides the possibility of changing the shape of the steady-state hysteresis loop. The way the DHM is combined with Maxwell equations makes it possible for the first time to separate all three components of the total loss in conducting ferromagnetic laminations. These are the static hysteresis loss, classical eddy-current loss, and the excess loss treated as a dynamic hysteresis component. The study of their frequency dependencies opens a possibility of accurate iron loss prediction based on the loss separation principle.

When viewed from a certain angle, obsession can be the most destructive creative force there is. Looked at another way, it can be the stuff of transcendent art.
Somewhere in the middle sits "33 Variations," Moisés Kaufman's often enthralling play about Beethoven's Diabelli Variations and a modern scholar's desperate attempt to understand what drove the tortured genius to compose them.
A moving production of the play, deftly directed by David Oliver and featuring a stellar cast, opened Wednesday in MusicalFare Theatre. With MusicalFare director and classically trained musician Randall Kramer at the piano, the play takes audiences between present day and 18th century Vienna, a time and place swirling with creativity and political turmoil.
It centers on a modern scholar recently diagnosed with ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease, played by the captivating Beth Donohue. The hard-charging musicologist becomes obsessed with solving the mystery of Beethoven's Diabelli Variations. Against the advice of her daughter (Morgan Chard), she travels to Vienna with her new boyfriend (Adriano Gatto) to find out what drove the great composer to create an enduring masterwork out of what was widely viewed as a substandard waltz by the ambitious but untalented music publisher Anton Diabelli (John Fredo).
If this sounds like the opposite of exciting, Kaufman imbues the potentially nap-worthy premise with the kind of smart and economical writing typically reserved for TV cop shows and Hollywood thrillers. Between interludes of the variations played beautifully by Kramer, we skip back and forth through time, from 18th century Vienna to our own troubled century, each time learning something new about the nature of creativity, genius and, perhaps especially, mediocrity.
As the conditions of Beethoven and the music scholar simultaneously decline, Donohue's character comes to learn important lessons about her subject and herself. "I have to understand why a genius became obsessed with mediocrity," she says. But gradually, as she pores over Beethoven's sketchbooks with the help of a sage Viennese librarian and friend (Ellen Horst), she realizes that her theory about the composer and her own daughter – whom she views as "a second-rate waltz" – are wrongheaded.
This production is MusicalFare's latest and most successful foray into the small but growing repertoire of plays that draw dramatic inspiration from the world of classical music. Many of these works can trace their lineage back to "Amadeus," Peter Shaffer's masterful 1979 play about the fraught relationship between Mozart and the lesser composer Salieri in 19th century Vienna, and most of them suffer by comparison.
This was true of "Old Wicked Songs," produced by MusicalFare in 2007, of Kramer's own lovely if didactic George Gershwin revue "American Rhapsody" in 2009 and the problematic "Two Pianos Four Hands." "33 Variations" comes close to the transcendent quality of "Amadeus" because of Kaufman's graceful writing, Oliver's attention to the interplay of the characters and lovely work from Gatto, Chard, Horst and Fredo.
There are only two minor missteps. The first is Brian Riggs' too caricaturish portrayal of the great composer, which has him prowling around like Fagin of "Oliver!" (a role he played wonderfully last year) and issuing raspy rebukes that strike the ear strangely. The other is designer Chris Schenk's projection work, which shows us the titles of the variations and various integral quotes in pedestrian Powerpoint style when the show seems to demand something more elegant.
Neither of these false notes do much, however, to throw off the exquisitely calibrated pitch of this excellent play.

City Neighbors Still Pissed About City's Jail Plan
posted by June 27 at 11:20 AMon
Last night, neighbors in Seattle's Highland Park neighborhood got together at the Machinist's Union Lodge in South Park and got all riled up about the city's potential plans to put a jail for misdemeanor offenders at one of two sites in West Seattle.
I wasn't at the meeting, but the West Seattle Blogwhich has been covering the hell out of this thingwas there and got some great videos of some very, very, angry neighbors.
The Highland Park Action Committee is also circulating an online petition, hoping to rally support against the West Seattle sites.
Again, it seems like there's a pretty good argument against building a new jail in Seattleor at least coming up with a regional solutionbut we'll see how much longer this drags out.
This city will hold three more meetings next month around the city to discuss the jail siting process.
Saturday, July 12, from 9 a.m. to noon, in the Wellness Center at North Seattle Community College, located at 9600 College Way N. focus: Aurora site
Saturday, July 26, from 9 a.m. to noon, in the Brockey Conference Center at South Seattle Community College, located at 6000 16th Ave. S.W. focus: West Marginal Way and Myers Way sites
Wednesday, July 30, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Seattle Center Exhibition Hall, located at 225 Mercer Street focus: Interbay site.
There will be blood.
