A new bike scheme has been launched in Doncaster to support residents to access employment, training or college.
The Access to Wheels scheme, coordinated by Doncaster Council and local partners, will help people who may be finding it difficult to get to work or training sites by providing them with a reduced priced bicycle to ease travel problems to and from their destination.
South Yorkshire Police and JE James Cycles will be supplying the second hand bikes while Hayfield Wheelers Cycle Centre will be carrying out any necessary maintenance.
Residents can source the bikes at a reduced rate as well as safety and security equipment such as cycle helmets, bike locks and lights. They can also increase their safety awareness and cycling confidence while out on the roads by taking part in an accredited cycling safety qualification delivered by Pedal Ready. One of the first people to access the scheme was through Doncaster's Stronger Families programme which helps families to tackle various issues they may be having including finding employment.
David Hamilton, Director of Adults, Health and WellBeing, said: "It can be tremendously frustrating for people who are looking for employment, training or further education but are unable to get to colleges or work locations due to various transport barriers. They may not have access to a car, can't afford the daily travel costs or their local bus doesn't suit their shift patterns.
"The Access to Wheels scheme gives people an alternative travel option which will help them to get to where they need to be that is not only cost effective and cuts commuting costs but also has both health and environmental benefits."
For more information about the scheme, please contact Dean Wiffen, Sport and Physical Activity Development Officer, Doncaster Council on 01302 735403 or Kirsty Thorley, Public Health Improvement Officer, Doncaster Council on 01302 734570.

Apparently I work in the Ministry of Education....how so? Because I have a pdf copy of the SEA results in my possession. Results that are only supposed to be released tomorrow, July 6th. The Ministry, in a clumsy attempt to cover up the fact that there had been a security breach claimed there was no leak and the only people who knew in advanced that they had passed, were the 20% of students covered in the Concordat Agreement between the government and denominational schools. SPLAAAAT!!! Yep, that's the sound of shit hitting fan! Grim Tim is currently bellowing like a wounded ox calling it an act of sabotage. And instead of calling in the police to do its job....because there is a section that deals with cyber crime, he is instead calling on Action Jack....I guess Jack going to issue orders to the police service again. More constitutional breaches in the making? But who cares, right? We supporting the government hardcore regardless of the shit they do, and anybody who criticise them hadda be PNM!!!!
A Hindu teacher spat in a student's face earlier this week. And according to news paper reports this isn't the first time she has misbehaved. I can assure you that had it been a Hindu child that this had happened to the uproar and public outcry over it would have been great....because Sat Maharaj knows how to make an issue into an ISSUE. We'd have known who the teacher was, he'd have called for the teacher's immediate resignation and firing, and all manner of dire warnings would have been issued. I have to wonder though, what causes a teacher, any for that matter, to spit in a child's face and if this unnamed woman's action was an act of frustration or prejudice?
The Minister of Health has recently gotten Cabinet approval to do away with Nursing Council Exams. Minister Khan has cited a high failure rate, among other reasons for removing the exam. But I don't know if he has indicated to anyone that removing the exam means that pretty much anyone can now enter the nursing profession, or huge numbers of nurses can be imported from a foreign country without having to meet any local standards, requirements or face any board. When you hear about the mass importation of foreign nurses remember I said it was going to happen. The Nursing Council is currently taking him to task. But I am wondering if it will go anywhere. One of the worst things to happen to this country is the large Parliamentary majority Kamla's All Fours' team got. They now run roughshod over the Parliament making and breaking laws as they damn well please!
Apparently nobody clear on who bring Shaq to Trinidad, first Jack and Kamla implied that two Ministries, Sport and National Security, brought him down for a joint crime initiative. Now Moonilal the Court Jester is saying a private businessman paid for Shaq's trip....who is the businessman? Does he pay taxes? Private Citizens supporting Crime Initiatives now? And Action Jack is now supporting Moonilal saying Shaq's visit didn't cost us a cent! This government turn mouth too bad. Is always multiple stories with them that they can never quite get straight.
Doh worry, by Saturday we will hear that nobody paid for Shaq's trip, he paid for it himself...and by Sunday it'll be that Shaq got off his plane by accident and decided to mop a drop from the PM to Beetham Gardens. What we are sure of though, is that somehow we being lied to and DE Vice Cyah Done!

China wasn't invited to Singapore summit – but got everything it wanted
Not so long ago, China was written off as a bystander to landmark events with regards to North Korea.
Marginalised and some would say irrelevant, Beijing was seen as a witness to an unstoppable rapprochement between North Korea and the United States which reached a dramatic climax in Singapore.
But Xi Jinping, the Chinese president, didn't need an invite to this week's historic summit to ensure his interests were represented and his objectives achieved.
He got everything he would have wanted.
The end of "war games" and a hint that US troops would be withdrawn from the Korean peninsula would remove two barriers to China's attempts to project its power across the region.
Meanwhile, a softening of sanctions will only improve trade with its neighbour.
China has long called for the end of military drills carried out by the United States and Seoul, as the first part of its "dual suspension' strategy", which Beijing believes will ease tensions on the Korean peninsula.
The second part of the strategy – Pyongyang halting its missile tests – had already become a reality in recent weeks as North Korean leader Kim Jong-un seeks to present his country in a less belligerent light.
Undoubtedly, the end of US military exercises in South Korea is a major concession for Pyongyang. In addition, Mr Kim does not appear to have given anything in return.
But the drills are also aimed at China.
Beijing views them as a significant part of the US strategy to contain it and a constant reminder Washington has a major role in the region.
googletag.cmd.push(function() {
The potential withdrawal of more than 28,000 troops from the Korean peninsula would leave the path clear for China to assert itself as Asia's dominant superpower.
So when US President Donald Trump said he would end the drills, China's vision for the future of north-east Asia was beginning to take shape.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said the agreement in Singapore showed China's "dual suspension" proposals were practical.
Sensing the momentum was swinging in China's favour, state media were also positive. "If the US stops joint military exercises with South Korea, it will be a big step forward on the Korean Peninsula," the nationalist 'Global Times' newspaper said, adding dual suspension becoming a reality would signal "a new leaf will be turned over".
"With a cooling down of military activities, less US military participation, and possibly an eventual US troop withdrawal, the peninsula will completely walk out of the shadow of the Cold War," the newspaper added.
Mr Trump's vow to end the drills – which he called "provocative" – was apparently made without first consulting Japan and South Korea.
Seoul's Blue House spokesman said: "At this moment, the meaning and intention of President Trump's remarks requires more clear understanding."
Such confusion among US allies in Asia is also a major win for China.
It is likely that during Mr Kim's two visits to China in the weeks leading up to the Singapore summit, he discussed with the Chinese president goals that would benefit both Beijing and Pyongyang – including the end of US drills.
And what other mutually beneficial policy adjustments could have been discussed by the two leaders?
North Korea is desperate for the US to halt "maximum pressure" sanctions which are crippling its domestic economy. China, which has resumed its traditional close relationship with North Korea in recent weeks, would be more than willing to soften the economic measures.
More than 90pc of North Korean overseas trade flows through China, and Mr Trump's administration is giving mixed signals on whether sanctions can be relaxed. Mr Trump said in Singapore that the China-North Korean border was "maybe more open than it was when we first started. But that is what it is".
Sensing an opportunity, even before Mr Trump had left Singapore, China's Mr Geng reminded the world that if Pyongyang was seen to have turned a corner, then "sanction measures can be adjusted, including to pause or remove the relevant sanctions".
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is scheduled to visit Beijing today to provide "an update" on the summit, the diplomat said.
Mr Pompeo also said he will seek to "underscore the importance of fully implementing all sanctions that are imposed on North Korea".
His comments might suggest the US won't give up on pressuring Mr Kim's regime just yet.
But in the current climate, they could also be seen as an indicator that a confident China might need to be reined in as it increasingly gets what it wants with regards to North Korea. (© Daily Telegraph, London)

As its name implies, the shrew-faced squirrel has a long, tapered snout that causes it to superficially resemble the common tree shrew. The long snout, along with reduced upper incisors and a long tongue, is an adaptation to help the squirrel catch and eat insects on the forest floor. The tree shrew, by comparison, has a wider gape than the shrew-faced squirrel, and a longer but less bushy tail. The resemblence between the two species is so close that the people of the region call them by the same name, tupai.
The shrew-faced squirrel is a medium-sized squirrel, about 7.5-9.5 inches in length for the head and body, with a tail about 4-5 inches long. The back fur can be reddish brown or olive brown, with white or yellowish white fur on the belly.
Although not considered a rare or threatened species, the shrew-faced squirrel is secretive and rarely seen. It nests primarily in hollow logs where females give birth to and raise one or two young which are born blind and hairless.

BUSS: Brewer Drain "C"
Hazard Level: ?
|Main Tunnel Clearance: 5.5'
|Tidal Coverage: yes
|Known # of Tunnels: 1
|Hazards: flood release gate
|Construction Materials: Cement
|One of our agents first spotted the drain while waiting in line at the all-you-can-eat buffet at Millers. (yes, sewer crawling weirdos might be eating next to you and you'd never even know it... hows that make you feel?). It is a rather boring drain, hardly worth exploring. It starts off with a short section of 5.5' RCP, which goes for about twelve or so feet before coming to a small ractangular room with a large round flapper gate on the opposite wall. There are no manhole covers or anything of interest in the room. Running water could be heard beyond the gate and we may try to explore this drain further, but going through these kind of gates is not our idea of a good time.

Skintown: 'I honestly never saw it as a film'
Actor Ciaran McMenamin speaks to Fiona O'Brien about his debut novel Skintown, plugged as the Enniskillen version of Trainspotting, and how it has already secured a film deal
"It all started with a true story that happened to me as a teenager. It's one of my favourite pub stories and I just went about developing it and Skintownwas born," says Ciaran McMenamin.
The Fermanagh man, who has lived in London for the past 17 years, but is considering a moved out to the country, has made a living as a professional actor for the past two decades, but is preparing for the release of his first novel. Some would be forgiven for thinking that as an actor McMenamin was penning a story that he envisioned on the big screen or stage, but that is far from the case, and he maintains it was a book he wanted to create as opposed to developing a script that he could act in.
"At school, my strength was always creative writing, but then I got into drama and pursued my artistic projects that way.
"I always wanted to write and it's only in the past few years that I started to seriously work on putting pen to paper. I've actually got my third novel near enough finished now too."
Skintown follows the story of Vinny Duffy, a teenager looking to make enough money to get out of hometown Enniskillen. It is never overtly referred to in terms of the period it is set, but McMenamin cleverly uses the news and events around the main character to give a historical backdrop of The Troubles in the early 90s.
"It doesn't affect the human relationships in the book, but it is , important obviously in how the characters interact with one another. It's just there in the background.
"Growing up in Northern Ireland at that time was the same in terms of the music we listened to and that rave scene as others growing up in Glasgow, or Liverpool or Manchester had. We just had a bit more complication in the background."
National identity
The book begins with Mc- Menamin's own real-life experience, which he uses as an anecdote to this day.
As a teenager, he was approached by a girl he knew to pretend to be her boyfriend so that two older, drunk, hard-men Protestants could give her a lift home, but so that she would not be on her own.
"We're in the back of a car belonging to the men our mothers told us to never get in the back of a car of. I close my eyes and wonder how many girls will come to my funeral," it reads.
When the girl was dropped off, McMenamin started to fear for his life, but after the car crashed on the way home the drivers struggled to get out of the mess and started to be friendlier towards him as his comic relief and quick thinking made them warm slightly.
"It's obviously been slightly exaggerated for effect, but that's sort of how it was. When you share an experience like that, and also humour, that sectarianism gets slightly forgotten. I still see that girl from time to time when I'm at home. I'm thinking of leaving a copy of the book at her front door."
The novel is very funny and very sharp. But while heavy on humourous and cutting dialogue it also has moments of quite pensive prose.
"Although it is dialogue heavy, it wasn't my intention to make it as a film or TV programme or a play.
"I just wanted to get that brilliant Fermanagh quick wit in there. It is so sarcastic and so cutting how they speak at home, that it takes me a while to catch up with it when I visit the pubs back there.
"But once I'm back in it, it's great. My wife finds it very strange. And the way that the people can say so much in the least amount of words possible.
"Why say five words when you can just use three to get your point across? "So 'shut the f*k up' becomes 'f**k up'. It's brilliant."
It was only when McMenamin's film-producer friends read the book that he thought it would make an ideal basis for a script.
"I couldn't see it at all. But he's convinced me and he is working on it and wants me to write the script which is nice.
"He didn't want to lose Vinny's voice by giving it to someone else and it's nice that I will still have that control over it. And I think a story like this can only really be done as a small independent film. It wouldn't work on a large scale I don't think."
The story follows Vinny, who is struggling on benefits after getting laid off from his job in the local Chinese. When his new hard-nut Protestant friends offer him a business venture, he does not let the aspect of a bit of drug-dealing come in the way of his vision to make enough money to avoid the terror he felt with sectarian rivalries in the town.
"Skintown was just a working title at first because that is the nickname we have for Enniskillen at home. But then it stuck because of all the other sort of metaphorical connotations with the word too."
Vinny's mother and father provide comic and historical relief in the book, and apart from a few references to casual relationships with girls, the book is really fraternal.
"One of the first reviews that came back said it was like a love story between a teenager and his best friend, and I suppose it sort of is.
"If you are a male at that age your best friend really is the main love in your life, and I think once the heist and drama side of the book is finished, that really shines through towards the end."
• Skintown is published by Doubleday Penguin for £12.99
Check out the Soundtrack
Vinny, the main character in Ciaran McMenamin's debut Skintown, has already checked out; he has a dead end job in a town that is going nowhere fast and he is living for the weekend and his next freshly rolled joint.
Music is one of his few escapes, a constant backdrop to his life when he has little else to hold onto. The publishers have released the soundtrack as a playlist on Spotify, in an ultra milennnial-savvy marketing move.
"When we did a few focus groups there was one reader in particular who could not comprehend the soundtrack, as it were," says Ciaran. "She couldn't get her head around the fact that teenagers in the early 90s would be listening to The Who, and said we should change it.
"But I held firm, I had to. You are inspired by your parents' music. Vinny grew up listening to his dad's Leonard Cohen LPs and his mother's Neil Diamond records.
"And he was so like me as a kid in loving the rave scene, but not the music. He liked The Who and old bands like that. I listened to the Stone Roses over any of that hard dance stuff. It would be like saying that no one in the 90s would be listening to The Beatles.
"Me and my wife listened to the playlist through the other night. And it really works. It's a brilliant mix tape of everything, and it really brings me back to that time of my life in the early 90s."

Helping to take care of your jewellery - some general guidelines and do's & don'ts
Sterling silver is one of the precious metals with a cool stylish look. It is also a natural characteristic of silver to tarnish. To remove the tarnish clean with a specialist cleaning cloth or fluid.
Yellow gold is a precious metal with warmth and lustre. It can be kept clean and lustrous with a specialist cleaning cloth or fluid. Periodic specialist cleaning and polishing by your jeweller is also recommended.
White gold is a precious metal that is both beautiful and popular. The white lustre is enhanced by rhodium plating (rhodium is a member of the platinum family) which with general wear will fade over time. Therfore white gold requires a higher maintenance to retain its lustre. To restore the white lustre re-rhodium plating periodically is required. This specialist procedure can be carried out by your jeweller.

I was cruising along this semester running four distance classes, one of which was still in development and another which was in redevelopment and two that were in need of several updates. I was driving at full speed and worked my way up to a 31 hour week - from home with two kids in the midst of snow days. A couple weeks later, I found myself on a second week of insomnia (constantly waking throughout the night), down probably 5 lbs in my weight with no appetite for anything other than peanut M&Ms, sitting in the doctor's office with extreme dry mouth, a cold, and my resting heart rate bouncing between 89 and 117 bpm, and I had "wonky" looking tonsils. This was after pacing the house in circles, the yard in circles, the cul-de-sac in circles.
I was absolutely convinced I was no longer qualified to do anything - anything at all - except maybe fold laundry. I was wrecked with anxiety and an immense fear of watching my life play out. I have never felt so inadequate, hopeless and helpless in my life - not even in postpartum depression. Something just snapped and no deep breathing or rational thought could fix it. It's blowing my mind that it came on so suddenly and strongly. Once I reached out for help from my doctor, I spent three days crying. If you walked up to me or called me to ask how I was, I cried on you. I'm now four weeks past the onset of this meltdown and befuddled by what occurred. As I've sought to process it all, there are several truths I've had to face.
1. If you ask God to draw near, he's not going to leave you hanging. His presence may not be what you expected. It may be in the phone calls with friends you haven't spoken to in months but show you grace in answering the call and helping you sort it out. It may be your dad visiting from out of town to help you come unwound. It may be asking your mom that hard question, "If I didn't do this or if I wasn't accomplishing anything but that, would you still be proud of me?" and seeing that just as you love your own nose-pickin' kids who've not added a thing to their resume, your mom loves you the same. It may be in your spouse's quiet presence as he takes on the load of caring for the kids while you pace the halls. It may be that God shows up by giving you the strength to call the doctor and make the visit you know you need to make. For me, it was all these things. I found Him in sunshine, on the recumbent bike at the YMCA, in the handfuls of spinach in my smoothie, in discussions with my sisters, and in notes from my son.
2. The constant striving and pursuits are all garbage, and it is absolutely okay that they are garbage. Philippians 3:8 states, "What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ". I don't mean to minimize the work we do to pay the bills or the work we do for higher purposes, but in the shadow of the fullness that comes from knowing Jesus, they are nothing more than a burst of foul wind. As I began to decompose those feelings of purposelessness and inadequacy, I was confronted by the fact that for so long I've sought to inject meaning and purpose into what I do, and it took being stripped of all passion and goals to rediscover passion in Jesus. I've sought meaning, and what I should have sought was Him.
3. I carry a lot of fears that come from failing to believe that God will not withhold his goodness from me. Psalm 84:11 states, "For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless." Here's the caveat (for me at least): when I start to fear that I'm missing out (whatever that ideal life/work/calling/relationship combination might be), I walk far from a blameless path and I do miss out on his goodness. I don't know what "good thing" from that passage actually is. I suspect that it has more to do with dwelling in the presence of God rather than a vacation home at the beach or material blessing. Either way, the soul turned towards Jesus knows no lack.
4. I have to eat and sleep and exercise my physical body, or else I will fall apart. These are daily goals. No matter what my long-term goals may or may not be, I still have to approach each day as a singular step in this journey. As a woman who has chosen to forgo a typical career of people with my level of education to stay home and raise children, I have to carefully assess whether the standards I hold for myself are fair for me. Sometimes, in fretting over what this choice looks like for the next 30 years and feeling like I am doing nothing well, I forget those daily goals and to celebrate the blessings around me.
Here's the amazing thing - through being leveled, I am more aware of my utter dependence on Jesus than ever before. I'm no closer to finding answers about my life's direction, except that I want to be where He is. For now, he has me carrying on carrying on. There's only a couple weeks until this semester ends and the public pools start to open and the freckles start to pop out on my forearms. I actually enjoy teaching, I just need to make sure to establish a better balance next time around. I also need to be daily reminding myself that though society's goal for its members is to be educated and functional parts of the nation's workforce, God's goal is that we know and be reconciled to him.

The rooftop is among the most significant areas of your whole property. Which means that it must be maintained by professionals which have experience and may provide roofing services that provide the greatest quality level. Attempting to select a roofing professional just by flipping with the Phone Book isn't advisable. You have to make certain that you simply take more care and consideration when you're selecting a roofer to cope with the next installation or repair project. Roofers aren't the same, meaning you need to be aware of useful tips where you can select the right roofer to do the job.
Fundamental essentials three tips which are most useful when you're attempting to select a roofer:
Have They Got Experience?
The factor you need to be most worried about when you're selecting a roofer is the quantity of experience they have. It's highly suggested that you select a roofing contractor that's been around not less than 5 years. What this means is that you'll be in a position to easier evaluate the kind of status the roofer has simply because they have adequate experience and will be in business lengthy enough. You won't ever wish to be the guinea pig for any roofing contractor that's been running a business for a few years, or fewer. It is advisable to employ a roofing contractor that's been there and seen everything before. They are generally, the roofers that offer the very best roofing services.
Referrals Might Help
One factor that you could depend on when you're searching that roofer to employ is really a referral. Which means that you need to ask buddies and family, in your area, that they choose once they require roofing services. This will help you to employ a roofer you know will perform a good job and provide you with an interest rate that you could afford. If you're searching to help make the best decision that's most informed, it may be beneficial to inquire about referrals from the roofer that you are looking at hiring. This can make sure that you are earning a sensible decision.
Estimates Matter
It's also vital that you employ a roofing professional that provides free estimates. This will allow you to check rates for several different roofers and permit you to pick the roofing contractor that provides probably the most value for you. Please make certain that estimates are apples and apples. You might find different roofing companies offer different solutions or materials. That to be the situation, decisions must element in greater than cost. Ultimately, you would like the very best job then your best cost. Roofs really are a lengthy-term investment.

Just when you think it's safe to buy your little kids toys the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) and that gem of a Chairperson, Nancy Nord, decides to interpret a law that benefits stores not kids. I got this from Moms Rising …
Remember in August, we celebrated a major victory in banning the sale of toys containing the toxic chemicals phthalates starting on February 10, 2009? Well, put the champagne back on ice because we just learned that the CPSC is misinterpreting the law and saying that stores can continue to sell down their inventories of these toxic toys as long as they were manufactured before the February deadline.
Tell the CPSC to stop monkeying around with our kids' health and get these banned children's products out of our stores as the law intended. Send a letter to CPSC Acting Chairman Nancy Nord: www.momsrising.org/really_ban_phthalates
Phthalates, plastic-softening chemicals, have been linked to serious health problems including early puberty (a risk factor for breast cancer), birth defects and testicular cancer. The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) was intended to ban sales of these toxic toys starting on February 10, 2009. Congress clearly intended the law to implement a full ban, so that parents would be confident that no toy on any store shelf contains toxic phthalates, and children would no longer be put at risk. Yet now the law is being interpreted as that it's okay to sell toxic toys as long as they were manufactured before the February deadline. This monkeying around with our kids' health isn't cool. No toxic toys should be sold after that February deadline at all.

February, 2008
Hungary yesterday backed a planned Russian gas pipeline crossing south-east Europe, a move that risks angering Budapest's western partners and could threaten the prospects of Nabucco, a rival pipeline supported by the US and the European Union. Ferenc Gyurcsany, the prime minister, announced the move during a visit to Budapest by Dmitry Medvedev, Russia's first deputy prime minister and likely successor to the president, Vladimir Putin. The deal is expected to be signed in Moscow on Thursday. The Hungarian decision puts Gazprom, the Russian gas monopoly, in a strong position to build its proposed $10bn-plus (£5bn, €6.7bn) Southstream pipeline, which would bring gas from Russia across the Black Sea and into the heart of the EU. Having secured the support this year of Bulgaria and Serbia, Gazprom has now obtained agreements for most of the route to Italy, the pipeline's main destination. It is also in a position to build a link to Austria, central Europe's gas hub, where the Russian group already enjoys close links. Gazprom has yet to decide whether to build a separate connection from Bulgaria across Greece and the Adriatic to southern Italy.
Mr Gyurcsany and Mr Medvedev denied that Southstream was a threat to Nabucco, a rival western-backed route that would bring gas from central Asia to Europe via Turkey. Mr Gyurcsany said: "It's in the interests of Hungary to have both pipelines crossing Hungarian territory." The Hungarian section of the pipeline will be owned by a 50-50 joint venture between the government and Gazprom. Mr Medvedev said that for Russia the diversification of routes was important. Moscow is building Southstream and a Baltic Sea route called Nordstream to reduce its dependence on its current principal pipeline running through Ukraine. However, Nabucco's backers are concerned that Southstream is gaining big commercial advantages by signing gas supply deals, leaving Nabucco in a weaker bargaining position. A US official said: "It's important to remain focused on the clear Euro-Atlantic priority, which is Nabucco. It's understandable that countries want to have as many pipelines crossing their territory as possible. But it's a flawed approach because sequencing matters, and you want to put into place some diversification before deepening your dependence on a primary supplier."
The EU is in an awkward position, because while its collective gas policy is to encourage diversification of supply away from Russia, leading EU members, including Germany, France and Italy, have signed bilateral deals with Gazprom. * Mr Medvedev showed support for Serbia yesterday after what he called Kosovo's "illegal" western-backed declaration of independence last week. "We proceed from the understanding that Serbia is a single state with its jurisdiction spanning its entire territory ," he said.

Gazprom announces another 25% gas cut to Ukraine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Udz7AZNVO8g
Medvedev, Gazprom's chairman and a close ally of the current President Vladimir Putin, has vowed to follow the policies of his mentor, who has been often accused by the West of using energy as a tool of intimidation. Yushchenko, who has managed to improve ties with Moscow in the past months, has major political differences with his former ally the current Ukrainian prime minister, Yulia Tymoshenko, whom he has accused of failing to keep to gas payment schedules. Both Ukraine and Gazprom said deliveries to Europe were running normally, but Deutsche Bank said this could change should Gazprom cut volumes further. "We view the current situation as a major challenge to Gazprom's status as a reliable gas supplier to Europe," it said. "In the long run, this may have an impact on European consumers' preferences as they try to diversify sources of gas away from Gazprom," said Pavel Kushnir from Deutsche Bank.
Ukrainian state firm Naftogaz said it would guarantee transit to Europe as long as it had enough gas for local needs. "Naftogaz reserves the right to introduce appropriate, asymmetrical actions to defend the interests of Ukrainian consumers," spokesman Valentyn Zemlyansky told journalists adding that mild weather and sufficient reserves would allow Ukraine to cope for now. Not everyone in Ukraine was convinced it could do so. "Reductions will firstly affect production areas with round-the-clock operations, like steel and chemicals," said Anatoly Kinakh, head of the Ukrainian Union of Industrialists. "They will hit equipment and quality of output so it cannot go on for any length of time. There is no basis for any suggestion that we could live for a month on our reserves."
Gazprom's cuts started with a 25 percent supply reduction on Monday as it says Kiev owes $600 million (300 million pounds) in unpaid bills and had not resumed negotiations since last week. It followed up with another 25 percent reduction on Tuesday evening. Ukraine will get around 70 million cubic metres of gas a day, 50 percent of usual levels. By comparison, Gazprom's supplies to Europe currently run at around 360 mcm a day. Though all of Gazprom's exports are reaching Europe, Ukraine said the firm had paid no transit fees for gas going to Europe since December, a statement denied by Gazprom.
Yushchenko last month clinched a deal on arrears and supplies with Putin, but that appears to have unravelled after a visit by the more strident Tymoshenko to Moscow. Tymoshenko opposes the existence of any intermediaries in gas trade. "Everything is linked to the fact that Tymoshenko is now in power and her attempts to eliminate intermediaries from the gas trade. This is what has caused the increased tension," said Volodymyr Fesenko from Penta, a Kiev-based think tank. Tymoshenko, who last week said the gas cutoff would never happen, made no comment on Tuesday. Diplomats say most key Gazprom decisions are taken personally by Putin, who is set to be prime minister under Medvedev, who will be inaugurated in May.

Ukraine's state gas company Naftogaz said Tuesday that it may reduce gas supplies to Europe if Russia cuts gas deliveries to Ukraine by another 25 percent. "Naftogaz recognizes that it can guarantee uninterrupted gas transit to Europe, but we reserve the right to take appropriate action if Ukraine's energy security comes under threat," Naftogaz said in a statement. The statement came on the same day when Russia's natural gas company Gazprom said it will cut gas deliveries to Ukraine by another 25 percent as of 8 p.m. Moscow time (1700 GMT) Tuesday, following a previous 25-percent cut Monday. Gazprom spokesman Sergei Kupriyanov said Monday Ukraine had consumed without Russian authorization around 1.9 billion cubic meters of Russian natural gas from the beginning of this year, worth some 600 million U.S. dollars. The gas row was triggered after the two sides failed at the last minute to sign a deal, under which they would agree that Ukraine would pay its debt for Russian gas deliveries and that a new delivery scheme would be worked out. In the statement, Naftogaz also called on Gazprom to resume negotiations to achieve a mutually-beneficial agreement. Ukraine sits on the main transit route for Russia's gas exports to Europe, where yearly a quarter of Europe's gas comes through Ukraine. A similar dispute between Moscow and Kiev sent jitters into European customers in 2006 as Gazprom cut all gas supplies to Ukraine.

Corinna May
This biography of a living person needs additional citations for verification. (August 2008) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Corinna May (born 6 October 1970 in Bremen, Germany as Corinna Meyer) is a blind singer from Germany. She is best known for competing in the 2002 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "I Can't Live Without Music".
From an early age she was interested in music due to her father's love of jazz. She also sang in a school choir and a gospel choir. After several talent competitions, May could release her first album in 1997; a jazz album, produced by herself. Two years later, she released an album called Wie ein Stern (Like a Star).
Her final breakthrough came in 1999 with the German preselections for the Eurovision Song Contest. She won, but her song "Hör den Kindern einfach zu" ("Just listen to the children") was disqualified because it was already released on an album by someone else. Her second try was in 2000 with the song "I Believe in God", which finished in second place.
She entered again in 2002 and this time won with a definite place in the final. With the song "I Can't Live Without Music" she represented Germany in the Eurovision Song Contest 2002. She was not very successful however, reaching only 21st place.[1]
In March 2006, she made a guest appearance at that year's German Eurovision preselection, singing "I Can't Live Without Music" in a medley of past German Eurovision entries. She also accompanied comedian Hape Kerkeling in a rendition of Italian Eurovision winning song "Insieme". In October 2006, the album Jetzt wie noch nie was released. Following this, she was released from her recording contract due to poor sales.

When you start to develop PowerShell modules it is relative easy. Just add a folder under
(Split-path $profile) + '\Modules'
say MyMod.
Then put a file MyMod.psm1 into it
Write-host "mymod loaded"
When you type ipmo Mymod, which is the alias for Import-Module you get
mymod loaded
With rmo Mymod , which is the short for Remove-Module you get rid of your module.
To check that it is removed, you can type
gmo or gmo Mymod, which is the alias for Get-Module
Now you shouldn't see it anymore.
Here I'm not going to tell you, what to put into your module file.
Best link for this I know is this post from Bruce Payette.
My focus here is, how to organise your system, when you have written something usefull and uploaded your module to some project.
I guess that you checkout your module from the project to some place, which is not in your modules folders. To ckeck where your system searches for modules just type
$env:PSModulePath -split ';'
Next I tried to be clever. I put the following into my profile:
$env:PSModulePath += ";\D:\MysharedProject\modules"
Now I can load the modules from this project by simple calles of ipmo myModule.
It really took some time to discover that I was too clever.
I'm using ISE for nearly all my PowerShell task and some time ago I discovered the menu New PowerShell Tab with the short-cut CTRL+T.
Each time you invoke this, you get a new PowerShell session and your PowerShell Profiles are executed.
But all these PowerShell session live in your current Windows session and each time the PSModulePath variable of the Windows environment will be modified. It gets longer and longer.
OK here now my final solution, this is the start of my profile.ps1
write-host "================== generall ($env:USERDOMAIN.$env:username) ==========================="
$AdditionalModulPathes = @(
# "D:\MyCopyOfSomeProject\Modules"
foreach ($path in ($AdditionalModulPathes| Get-unique) )
if (($env:PSModulePath -split ';') -notcontains $path)
$env:PSModulePath += ";" + $path
# $env:PSModulePath -split ';'
Now I modify the evironment only once.
And here is the location, where I select whether I use the stable release, the current development version or my own unpublished work.
I hope this give you some ideas.
BTW: ISE-Cream has reached release 0.1
If you are thinking about extending ISE, take a look at it

Representatives National Resource Center
The Upsides and Downsides of Selling Your Products
and Services through Manufacturers' Reps
Advantages of Selling through Manufacturers Rep:
Costs Are Back-Loaded: Other than your investment in recruitment, support tools, and training and orientation, all other costs of selling through manufacturers' reps are back loaded. You pay your manufacturers representatives a commission on paid invoices. When business is up, you pay more in commissions. When sales are down, the cost of your manufacturers' reps decreases.
You Inherit the Reps Customer Base: Reps come with an existing base of accounts that have been buying from that rep for years, maybe decades. No newly hired company salesperson has that going for him!
Reps Create Synergy: A rep has an existing account thats developing a new line of products that require the parts you make. You might never have found that prospect on your own.
Reps Provide Field and Competitive Intelligence: Reps are out there on the front lines every day, and they are street-smart. They can be an excellent source of industry and competitive intelligence, and a resource for product improvements and new product development.
of Selling through Manufacturers Reps:
Reps Are Independent Businesses: Just as you have little influence over what customers or resellers do with your products, reps will do what they believe is in their best interests. That can, however, work to your advantage!
Reps Have Shared Loyalties: You will never get a reps complete and undivided attention because reps must split their time and resources among several principals. That means you must compete against your conventional competitors, then compete for each reps time, talent and resources against his other principals!
Give Up Considerable Control: If you need control (for
example, you sell through distributors, and you need to know where your
products are going and what they are holding in inventory), you will not
likely get that type of enforcement and feedback from a rep. Better hire
a direct sales force!

An astronomer filmed an asteroid crashing into the Moon (video)
Tuesday, February 25, 2014 Unknown No comments
A spanish astronomer says he witnessed an asteroid the size of a refrigerator that breaks into the Moon, the biggest lunar impact caused by an asteroid ever recorded .
The event has been seen by Jose Maria Madiedo , a professor at the University of Huelva
On 11 September 2013 Madiedo operated two telescopes to observe the Moon, when he saw a flash in the Mare Nubium, an old basin full of dark lava .
Light was briefly almost as bright as the North Star , says Royal Astronomical Society ( RAS ) .
It would have been visible to the naked eye for anyone who happened to look at the Moon at the time, in good seeing sky.
There was a long response , with a duration of eight seconds - the longest and brightest ever seen on a lunar impact .
"At that moment, I realized that I saw a very rare and extraordinary event ," said Madiedo to the society.
Madiedo and his colleagues have calculated that the rock has a mass of about 400 kg, and a diameter of between 60 and 140 centimeters. It hit Mare Nubium to about 61.000 km per hour.
The speed was so great that the stone has melted on the impact and vaporized, leaving a thermal glow visible from Earth like lightning , and formed a crater of 40 meters in the lunar surface .

Your toys or kids will have their very own 13' separate garage and living area, while you can enjoy the main living/kitchen combined space or sleep soundly in the master bedroom. There is a rear Happi-Jack power bunk above two fold-up sofas with a table beneath, and a side man door in the garage. You will be able to close off this space with the glass patio doors between these two areas to watch TV or eat dinner. The cook in the family will enjoy all the kitchen amenities, and everyone will appreciate being able to get cleaned up in the full bathroom.
With any Triton fifth wheel toy hauler by Dutchmen RV you will enjoy the luxurious interior as well as the garage features including the spring assist ramp door, the 30 gallon gasoline pump station to keep your toys fueled all weekend long, the Tuff ply garage flooring for durability, and 2,500 pound tie downs to secure your toys on the go. Inside each model there is an LCD HDTV, upgraded residential furniture, solid surface countertops, and a stainless steel kitchen sink. You can be an active and adventures person but love the details of fine living in a Triton fifth wheel toy hauler. It's time to stop dreaming about adventure and luxury, and start living it!
Like most: We went on our first trip this past weekend. It was amazing! We are so very happy with the coach we purchased!
I just want to thank Noah for all that he has done for us. We truly appreciate the friendly and helpful service he gave us. - Lori from Lapeer, MI

inspired by green hydrangeas
Friday, July 9, 2010
Three months have gone by since I've posted anything on this blog, but two jobs, planning a wedding and moving into a house have taken up most of my time. I've returned with new ideas, projects and big inspiration! Let me renew this blog with the ultimate of inspiration - an inspiration board. I'm always amazed by how someone can take one, two or three graphics and create an entire design theme. After some time saving my favorite graphics online, falling in love with one sheet of paper at Paper Source, I finally created what is ultimately the inspiration board for our wedding next year. I'm sure we'll change our minds a few times, but this is what inspires us.

It took a long time to feel normal after my parents died, especially after Mom's death. But, I made it, it can happen. If anyone is reading this that feels like life will never be the same after you lose someone so close to you, someone that felt like you shared the same heart beat. You will, I promise...but it will take time. Allow yourself to take the time. Don't get wrapped up in the anger so long that it causes you to be a bitter, nasty person that cares about nothing and no one. I know a little bit about that. Even a little girl will go through the same process a 50 year old person would. Talk about it and surround yourself with people who love you. People who want what's best for you. I didn't have that when I was little. I was surrounded by people who wanted to hurt me and abuse me.
After the reveal of my Husband's addiction and going through extensive therapy my eyes have been opened to the damage that was done to me. That the lack of support, therapy, love and just being able to work through my emotions regarding my childhood has caused me to build walls around me so tall that I couldn't see the damage going on outside those walls. The damage to myself, my kids and even the secret life my Husband was living so dangerously.
Every year since adulthood I become anxious a few weeks before Easter. Sometimes it's worse then others. The past few years though I have tried very hard to stay positive. I want to celebrate her life, not grieve the loss of her. After 30 years I'm finally able to do this. I'm able to appreciate the time I did have with her. Mom was very sick, I basically watched her slowly die for 2+ years. So, I knew she was in a better place. She had left the pain behind her. But, the problem was I picked up that pain unfortunately where she left it. Sounds crazy I know. But I have done a ton of soul searching over the years. Lot's of personal therapy, journaling, EMDR, you name it...I've done it. As a child and young adult I was all alone with my emotions, my fears, my pain. It was as though I became trapped in the fear, pain and worries of those last few years. Reliving it over and over, but involving the current life situations that was around me. Because life goes on....it will not stop just because you need it to do so. And time will never rewind, trust me I have tried to. I have begged and pleaded with God for it to happen, just once. Since I was 12 I have been on medication for being Bipolar.....now I know that I was never Bipolar. I have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). After all these years I am finally working on me and learning why I deal with life the way I deal with life. Unlocking past trauma and actually working through it instead of stuffing it in a closet.
Her name was Violet, it's a Beautiful name. It's the name of a flower and the prettiest color I know. The evening sky can be Violet and early morning before even the birds want to peak their little heads up out of their beds. Most importantly Violet was my Mom, she gave me life. She carried me in the warmth of her belly and nourished my soul with every deep breath she took. She held me tight when I was scared and chased away the monsters that hid in my closet. She kissed my forehead when I was sick in bed and let me stay up late when her and Daddy played cards. She laughed wildly I guess like I do now. Even though I can't remember the sound of her voice or the smell of her perfume I know that she was beautiful with a heart of an Angel. She was so kind hearted, always doing for others and giving of herself.
She will always be in my heart. And I want her to be in the hearts of my kids too. Which is why this year I am going to share some stories with the kids and look through pictures of her with them. I want them to know about her bravery as she fought for her life. I want them to know how kind her heart was and how generous she was. I want them to never forget the person who I called Momma.

I've been testing a simple poll script that has a few advantages. These include cookies that stop people from filling out the questionnaire twice, a pie chart that gives results immediately after filling the form out (which is linked to the Google API) and a simple form based admin process that means I can create a questionnaire in ten minutes.
I should have done this ages ago really but I've been trying to learn php properly for reasons I'll cover in a minute. I thought I'd try this to see how it works. I've learned how to do a simple poll in php off my own back but the cookies and the instant results in this are appealing. Mind you, saying that, I'm not 100% sold on the cookie thing. it basically means that any given computer can only fill it out once, so groups of people can't do it in the same place. Not what I want. I may be better off leaving the cookies alone, which leaves the whole thing open to poll stuffing. I admit this may be an experiential thing with learning about interactive art generally. One of those where I'll do better next time.
One thing that's frustrating me is the fact that I can't connect to the humjam database. This is pissing me off, to say the least. I've connected to wordpress with no problems but for some reason the mysql connect script doesn't work in this. I think it may be because the server give you a specially concocted connection script to use. If this is the case, why can I use wordpress, though?
The thing that bugs me about using plugins like this is the fact that it comes with lots of php attached, most of which I don't fully understand. One consequence of this is that it's really hard to modify. What can I move around without messing anything up? I know I can't use the server's own connection script which they provide because it uses slightly different connection conventions. The server's own connection convention is annoying anyway. By many accounts the better way of connecting to MySQL is $mysqli, not $mysql_connect, which is what they give you. Nevermind. Anyway, this is why I want to learn php properly and not just use other people's scripts all the time. It will serve me well in the long run, es pecially if I'm going to do more of these kinds of things on humjam in the future.
Will hopefully blog again later on another approach to this.

Arlette Anastas, wife and mother of five, lives with her family in Bethlehem. Her husband George is an auto mechanic. With the extended family, they operated shops on the ground floor of their house near Rachel's tomb. One day in 2002, the Separation Wall went up around three sides of their house. When that happened, customers from Jerusalem were cut off, and the shops closed. George continued as a mechanic in another part of town. In recent years, the old shops were replaced with gift shops; Arlette has a gift shop in what used to be the auto repair garage. Tourists from around the world visit Arlette's shop when they come to see what life is like next to the Wall.
Arlette and George are proud of their steadfast resolve to remain in their homeland even if they don't like living behind the Separation Wall. Always positive, Arlette and George looked for ways over the Wall. As Palestinian Christians, they embarked on making baptism garments that could be sent all over the world from the town where Jesus was born. They are happy to share their faith and culture in such a meaningful way.
Children in Australia, England, Germany, Italy, Jordan, Norway, Sweden, and the USA have been baptized or dedicated in garments provided by Arlette.

I should have a warning label or something:
The surgeon general has determined that letting me review your crappy game can be bad for sales, not to mention what it will do to your ego.
Uncle Chestnut's Table Gype is a good example of a game where the designer would have done well to read that warning label. Alas, he was inattentive, and apparently never read reviews of stuff I didn't like. Well, Uncle Chestnut, you probably should have done a little more homework. Table Gype is rife with examples of things that make me walk away in a hurry.
For instance, the board is a napkin. I don't mean it's a board that has napkin art on it, I mean the game board itself is silk-screened onto a black cloth napkin. And this napkin does not want to lay flat, which makes the game slightly irritating to play. A napkin is what you use in a restaurant when you need to write something immediately and can't find a piece of paper. It is not a game board. I've seen nice cloth game boards, but those boards are actually cloth, not napkins. This game board looks like it was stolen from a neighborhood Mexican restaurant.
Also, if you do intend to include quotes around the outside of the board, do yourself a favor and hire a damned editor to check your work. Do not put sloppy mistakes right there on the board, especially when the only reason the quotes are there is to show that you have a fondness for GK Chesterton.
Another irritation point is that the game comes with 32 blank dice and about 200 stickers, and you have to peel all the stickers and put them on the dice. And since there are six different symbols, you also have to be really careful so that you don't end up putting two of the same thing on one die. Because then you will feel retarded, and worse, you will have spent an hour putting together your game just to decide that you would rather play Parcheesi.
And you know what? I don't give a flying hairless rat's ass about GK Chesterton. HG Wells has some stuff that would make great games. CS Lewis had awesome material that could be mined for a fun theme (I mention those two because they were writing at the same time, and they shared Chesterton's unfortunate luck of having two letters for a first name). But I have trouble imagining what makes a master of Catholic apologetics into theme fodder. I certainly have no desire to read a whole bunch of quotes, completely out of context, to explain why one side of every die is decorated with a human ear.
The final piece that makes this one of the worst-produced games I've ever seen is the box in which the entire bundle is contained. I'm sure the box was very affordable, but I still question the wisdom of using those flimsy plastic boxes that Save the Children uses to send you cheesy Christmas cards as a way to thank you for giving them ten bucks a year.
Now, here's the worst thing - this is a fun game. It would be a lot more fun if I didn't have to assemble it myself and then play it on a cocktail napkin while I read failures of subject-verb agreement, but it's actually very clever. It's like Chinese Checkers, but with dice instead of marbles, and you play it on a square grid. Your dice have to move from your home row to that of your opponent, and if you have four people playing, the middle of the board can turn into one heck of a sloppy mess.
Each face of a die has a different move it makes. The swords move diagonally. The book moves straight. The hat hops. The ear just sits there, which I guess kind of makes sense, because how the hell would a disembodied ear get anywhere at all? The potential answers to that question are more than a little creepy.
On your turn, you can move a die or roll it. If you jump over other dice, you have to roll them, which is a great strategy if your opponent has a fire about to do some immense string of jumps. It's best if you can turn it into one of those freakish ears. And then if you get your dice turned into ears, you'll want to jump them yourself, to see if you can't turn them into trees.
It will take about an hour to put the game together. Then it will take you about ten minutes to figure out how to play. It will take less than half an hour to actually play the game, unless you spend any time reading the game board or complaining about having to play on table linens. It's way more fun with four people, but it's still very enjoyable with two. It's a cool abstract with a bizarre theme, and if the components were not total bargain basement, I would be saying all kinds of nice things about it.
Look, I understand that the guy who made Table Gype might be an academic on a short budget with an immense fondness for Victorian Age literature. I can forgive a lot in a game, especially small-press stuff, but there are just too many things about this game that scream, 'I can't afford this!' Kudos to the guy for trying, but this is not a success. It's a fun game. It's just a pity that it comes in a recycled gift box and is played on a napkin.
Fun abstract with chances for strategy, planning, and quick thinking
Interesting derivative of stuff created by some literary geniuses
Seriously underwhelming components
Straight-up rookie night production
Odd choice of theme inspiration

Sony have packed some of the best tech inside this flagship device. Running on Android's Marshmallow operating system, the device's interface is elegant and simultaneously easy to use. Powered by a 64-bit octa-core processor, qualcomm snapdragon 810 chipset and 3GB of RAM, the Xperia Z5 has no trouble when it comes to multi-tasking and can launch apps in a matter of seconds.

Sony's most impressive, high-spec camera to date, the Xperia Z5 is home to a 23MP camera and a 5MP front-facing camera that fits into the design seamlessly without leaving a disruptive bump in the outer shell. Producing high-resolution images that can easily be mistaken for professional-quality photos, the handset's rear camera captures the moment perfectly even in the lowest light.
With an autofocus that reacts in 0.03 seconds, blurred images will never be an issue with this Sony handset.
Undoubtedly, Sony's stand-out feature for the Xperia Z5 is the revolutionary 23MP camera. Producing breathtaking images with immense speed and accuracy, the device has one of the best cameras on the market.

TULKAREM- The short inspirational and motivational story "Talal Ibn Adibah" which narrates the story of HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh's life starting as a refugee to becoming a global personality, was discussed and read during a special event initiated by the Cultural Salon in Tulkarem at Palestine Technical University – Kadoorie.
The reading session was presented by Dima Al Samman, a Palestinian novelist born in Jerusalem and a member of the administrative organization of the Palestinian Writers' and Authors' Union and attended by Mr. Jamal Melhem, Executive Director of Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Organization (TAG-Org) in Ramallah, Mr. Ahmed Ammar, Assistant Professor for Community Affairs and Public Relations, and poet Ulfat Abu Jarad, and president of the Cultural Salon, Ms. Asmahan Azzouni in addition to a host of invitees.
Al-Samman stated "We are tackling a very important book that talks about the life of the great man Talal Abu-Ghazaleh; the book contains rich stories on positive values for young people, and indirect messages to parents on the right way to raise their children."
Al-Samman highlighted the Ministry of Education and Higher Education's decision to distribute the book to all schools labeling it "a wise decision", especially as it brings hope and delivers positive messages during these current difficult times.
During the meeting, Mr. Melhem distributed copies of 'Talal Ibn Adibah', and "the "Dreaded Echo" in addition to other books.
'Talal Ibn Adibah' narrates the story of Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh during the various stages of his life, delivering his message to the "leaders of tomorrow" to express their dreams and aspirations, and inviting them to adhere to those dreams despite the circumstances.

Really lovely! Great fit and I love the pattern!ReplyDelete
Love this I have been coveting that fabric forever!ReplyDelete
Super pretty!ReplyDelete
It is gorgeous! You did a superb job!! I love the design too.ReplyDelete
I have this pattern and am now tempted to try itReplyDelete
I ripped that pattern in a million pieces during a gusset-related tantrum. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how that gigantic piece fit where it was supposed to.ReplyDelete
Your version looks amazing!
Thank you for all your lovely comments.ReplyDelete
Amy- don't worry too much I got help, I really wanted to cut the gusset down but wanted someone else to agree with me before I did so. I also started from the outside and did one side first, got that flat then did the other side cut it down as I went.
Stevie- If your still thinking of this fabric don't think any more, it feels so good. I am soooo glad I used it. Just watch the pattern on the fabric and try to avoid my error.
