C. 1891 Aesthetic Movement Gray Transferware Planter Wash Stand Doulton Lambeth Aquarius
Brand Royal Doulton
Here is an absolutely stunning piece dating to the late 1800's by Doulton Lambeth. This is a very rare and unusual water vessel with a lip that rested on a stand and would tilt forward to pour into a basin which sat below (see last images). It is quite large and heavy. This is the jug part of the Aquarius, in creamy white-colored earthenware which still retains its gloss finish. The vessel is decorated with gray transfer printed trailing flowers and scrollwork. The jug features a horizontal design with a large central mouth over which a short bail handle is moulded. Protruding shoulders have moulded scrolls to enable the jug to sit securely on an accompanying stand while swinging forward on wooden rollers to pour water into a basin. Charmingly , it presents the shape of a woman's neck and shoulders. It is really beautifully detailed in both form and transfer!
Circa 1890-1902
'Royle's Patent Toilet Aquarius', earthenware, Doulton Burslem, England, c. 1891.
An old advertisement from 1891 (pictured in black and white) shows a Toilet Aquarius, a new patented water container for wash stands where no muscular effort required. The water flows into the basin by simply pulling forward the handle. No lifting of a heavy jug. A Boon to Ladies and Invalids. A trouble-saver to Strong Men. The newly patented device is endorsed by the famous theatre actress, Phyllis Broughton.
Overall dimensions: 17" x 12" x 6"
Condition: No chips or cracks. There is a little typical, age related crazing present and one stress mark around the lower side that appears to have been done during manufacture.
The color are antique ad is from 1894. In the black and white ad you can see how this was used. When I found it I just had to buy it. I thought it would be gorgeous as a container for a small plant or flowers. I had displayed it setting on the back of a toilet previously. It would be pretty on a sturdy shelf as well.

The German army has faced a shortage of equipment for years, but the situation has recently become so precarious that some soldiers took matters into their own hands.
On Tuesday, German broadcaster ARD revealed that German soldiers tried to hide the lack of arms by replacing heavy machine guns with broomsticks during a NATO exercise last year. After painting the wooden sticks black, the German soldiers swiftly attached them to the top of armored vehicles, according to a confidential army report which was leaked to ARD.…To make matters worse, the broom-equipped German soldiers belong to a crucial, joint NATO task force and would be the first to be deployed in case of an attack Call to Arms

Wild Swimming for beginners
By wildswim at August 9, 2017 | 7:18 am | 0 Comment
Why go 'wild' swimming There is something slightly naughty, a little bit scary and wonderfully invigorating about leaving your wetsuit at home, and entering open water with just your skin (and perhaps a swimming costume) between you and the elements. Freed from the thermal and neoprene protection of a wetsuit, cold water immersion provides a sense of elation and

Escaping a rip is straightforward if you are a strong swimmer and remain calm. People drown from panic, followed by exhaustion, so never fight against the current. Keep an eye on a shore landmark to establish whether you are in a rip. If so, stand or wade if possible. If not, swim out of it at 90 degrees parallel to the beach for about 20m. Once out of the rip, head back

(CNN) — Statements that a Baltimore police officer charged in Freddie Gray's death gave to investigators can be used in her trial, a Maryland circuit court judge ruled Tuesday at a pretrial hearing.
Defense attorneys for Sgt. Alicia White had wanted the statements ruled inadmissible, arguing in part that her employer — the Baltimore Police Department — had required them and therefore they were involuntary and not valid in court.
White is one of six officers charged in Gray's death in April. One of the six, Officer William Porter, also is expected to ask Judge Barry Williams to rule his statements inadmissible later Tuesday.
Gray's death while in police custody sparked outrage and demonstrations, some of which were plagued by arson, vandalism and looting despite his family's pleas for peace. Authorities say Gray, 25, suffered a fatal spinal injury while being transported in a police van in April.

In the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, Agra is a city located on the banks of the river Yamuna. It is the city of Taj Mahal, one of the wonders of the world. Because of being a well-renowned tourist spot in India, this city has all the modern facilities related to food, fashion, traveling, medical treatments and much more. Hair Transplant is one of those latest medical facilities that are being offered in Agra at affordable prices along with efficient results.
Hair Loss can occur due to a variety of reasons, but the most common one is Androgenic Alopecia and it is also known as Male Pattern Baldness. It is a hereditary problem that occurs mainly because of family history or we can say due to genes. Other reasons for hair loss may include hormonal changes, menopause, inappropriate diet, trauma or accident, scarring and improper hair care. Women having a low intake of folic acid and iron can have greater risks of experiencing hair loss.
Hair loss is generally progressive, so you need to be very careful while choosing the best hair loss treatment for you. It is very important to maintain the health of your hair because hair loss can also affect the confidence of a person. So if you too are facing these devastating issues, then make sure that you remain strong emotionally, physically and mentally in order to take the right decision for yourself.
Hair transplant is increasingly socially acceptable; however, the surgical procedures always require extra care and skills to be performed accurately. There are two primary methods to perform hair transplantation, which are:
Both these techniques vary only in the extraction procedure of the hair grafts. The implantation of hair follicles is identical in both of the above-mentioned hair transplant methods. Also, the results offered by both the procedures are natural and long-lasting.
Considering the best among these two techniques is based on the requirements and condition of the patients. However, the major difference that makes the FUE method better than FUT is the scarring. FUT leaves a linear scar while FUE is almost a scar-less procedure. In FUE, there are very tiny dots on the donor area that are easily covered by the existing hairs. Because of being the latest and minimally invasive technique of hair restoration, FUE is comparatively more expensive.
The hair transplant surgery generally starts by giving local anesthesia to the patients. The local anesthetic procedure will numb the surgical area and the patient will not feel any major pain or discomfort throughout the whole procedure. The further hierarchy of hair transplant involves the following steps:
As we have mentioned above, the extraction of follicular units can be performed by one of the two techniques – FUE or FUT. In FUE, it is performed by harvesting the individual grafts from the donor area; while in FUT, the surgeons harvest a small strip and afterward, the dissection of individual grafts takes place.
After the extraction of hair grafts (by FUE or FUT method), the follicular units are stored at low temperatures. Then the doctor will perform slitting on the recipient area where the grafts need to be implanted. After preparing the scalp for implantation, the surgical team will place the extracted hair grafts one by one in the recipient area with the right angle, depth and direction.
PRP therapy is a hair loss treatment method in which the Platelet-rich Plasma from the human body is taken and re-infused to the bald areas of the scalp to transplanted hair growth at a fast rate. PRP additionally mends the injuries quicker and helps in the fast recovery after the surgical hair restoration.
Cost is the major factor that we consider while going for hair transplantation and it is the fact that we usually get attracted towards the most affordable option. But we need to make sure that the quality level is high and we could get expected hair growth results. HBY is one option that will return complete value to your money by offering you satisfying outcomes at a reasonable cost of hair transplant in agra.

Second-cut silage programme to maximise yields and quality
Learning from the 2018 fodder shortages, Glanbia Ireland has developed a second-cut silage programme to help farmers maximise their fodder reserves for this coming winter.
There are many fertiliser products available to farmers for use on second-cut silage. Glanbia has also developed a calculator which will enable farmers to grow the best possible crop of grass for each individual field.
It will ensure the farmer can balance the specific nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) requirements for each field, taking into consideration the off-take from first and second-cut silage.
It is important to note that 90% of silage ground is deficient in either lime, P or K. Two cuts of silage takes off over 30 units of P and 180 units of potash which needs to be replaced.
It was especially difficult to get these levels out this year with challenges in slurry application. If P or K are deficient, nitrogen efficiency can be less than 50%.
When deciding what type and quantity of fertiliser to apply, make sure to examine your latest soil sample results and allow for the following:
- Crop P & K off take;
- Slurry quantity applied / P and K already applied;
- Sulphur required and sulphur already applied;
- Estimated second-cut silage closed time and quantity of N to be applied.
What fertiliser should I use for my second cut and how much should I apply?
A crop of second-cut silage – i.e. 5t/ha (dry matter) – will remove up to 20kg/ha of P and 125kg/ha of K.
To grow a crop of second-cut silage, you will require the above levels of P & K (unless Index 4) and also 80-100kg/ha of N and 8-16kg/ha of sulphur (S).
If pH is low, lime should be applied; either grow lime or granulated lime should be used.

Quiksilver True Wetsuit
Last updated on November 15th, 2015 at 12:07 pm
We love nothing more than a novelty product from Asia, and we think we've found our favourite in a long long time. Introducing the Quiksilver True Wetsuit – a two piece suit that is designed to be used on the waves as well as the boardroom.
Combining office and casual wear, the two-piece suit is made from neoprene and even comes complete with shirt, as well as either a neck tie or bow, depending on the grandeur of the occasion. Every element offers a totally waterproof solution to addressing that difficult work/leisure balance.
Quiksilver Japan suggest the True Wetsuit is designed to be as effective in a meeting as they are on a board, with a suit constructed from a combination of 2mm jersey neoprene and lightweight water repellent fabrics. In fairness, the suit looks fair more stylish than you could have ever imagined.
Quiksilver will release three styles to cater for all levels of business occasion: The Office Smart wetsuit is composed of a Black jacket and trousers, as well as white shirt and a monochrome striped tie. Nice and simple.
The Casual Friday does what it says on the tin and is a little more playful with a sophisticated Petrol Blue suit that comes with a Blue and White striped neck tie. The final option is the Party tuxedo, which is a Black suit, complete with a bow tie, pocket square and even stylish wet-look winged lapels.
Annoyingly for all of us, the Quiksilver True Wetsuit will only be made available in Japan for now, and will set surfers back around £2,000. So you're going to have to be a seriously avid surfer to fork out for one. It's still a brilliantly bonkers idea. Check out the video below to get a feel for it.

Just What Exactly Is Motivation?
What exactly is motivation? Everyone does not always define motivation the exact same way.
Some people describe motivation as a mental force that drives a person to accomplish an end such as finishing a project or saving for retirement. Either way you look at motivation it is something every entrepreneur needs in their toolbox of personal characteristics to become successful.
Some people say that motivation is why some individuals do one thing and others do something all together different. Motivation is often discussed in terms of setting and achieving goals and also what determines the behaviour of a human being.
Motivation is sometimes defined in terms of feelings that push a person to achieve a given objective, goals, or accomplishments
Often motivation is believed to be the reason that a person chooses to do anything in particular, whether it be applying for a specific job or taking a chance by asking someone out on a date. It takes courage and a change mindset to be self motivated. Some people have just a burning desire to be successful, while others move their energy into another direction.
In the realm of psychology, motivation is closely connected to behaviour in terms of the initiation as well as direction, intensity and persistence of it.
Motivation has to do with having the interest in doing something and then having the willingness and ability to see it through to completion.
Motivation however is not the same as emotion or personality. Motivation is instead a dynamic and temporal state of mind.
A person who is motivated can be motivated to accomplish a long-term goal or a short-term goal and both have value.
Sometimes a motivated individual will break a long-term goal down into a series of smaller short-term goals in order to make the end result easier to reach for and attain.
The motivation to work towards any given goal can change and often times circumstances make it necessary for a person to modify their level of motivation.
An individual's personality on the other hand is basically a permanent part of the characteristics of the person that does not change.
Aspects of a person's personality include such things as whether the person is introverted or extroverted, modest, conscientious, shy, loud and so on.
Emotions are temporary states that a person finds themselves in in order to cope with immediate circumstances, such as feeling sad, happy, frustrated, confused, anger and being in a state of grief.
Emotion does not automatically correlate with behaviour whereas motivation does.
Motivation is often broken down into two categories, that of intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation.
Intrinsic motivation occurs when the desire to do something comes from within a person and there is no obvious external incentive for it to take place.
Engaging in a hobby for pure enjoyment such as painting, making toy models, stamp collecting, scrap booking etc. are examples of intrinsic motivation. A great deal of research studies have been conducted on intrinsic motivationsince the 1970s.
Extrinsic motivation is when there is an external factor present that serves as an incentive for behaviour.
Motivate yourself, and be like the bamboo tree. I am doing it and the energy is catchy for others.
Here is to succeeding in any path you choose………..
Gordon Wat
This is commonly viewed in workplaces where employees are motivated by their superiors by being offered tangible rewards such as extra money or a promotion.

AC/DC have just issued a statement on the passing of rhythm guitarist and founding member, Malcolm Young. With reports breaking in 2014 of him battling dementia, Young stepped down from his duties and his nephew Stevie Young taking up the mantle for the Rock or Bust album in the same year and the subsequent tour in 2015 and 2016.
AC/DC's statement reads as follows:
It is with deepest sorrow that we inform you of the death of Malcolm Young, beloved husband, father, grandfather and brother. Malcolm had been suffering from Dementia for several years and passed away peacefully with his family by his bedside.
Renowned for his musical prowess Malcolm was a songwriter, guitarist, performer, producer and visionary who inspired many. From the outset, he knew what he wanted to achieve and, along with his younger brother, took to the world stage giving their all at every show. Nothing less would do for their fans.
Malcolm is survived by his loving wife O'Linda, children Cara and Ross, son-in-law Josh, three grandchildren, sister and brother.
While thanking all for their overwhelming support and heartfelt condolences, the family ask that you respect their privacy during this time of heartbreak and grief.
For those wishing to send messages to the family please visit the Sydney Morning Herald Malcolm Young Memorial website which will be available next week.
The family have asked instead of flowers to send donations to The Salvation Army.
It's hard to find a rock fan who doesn't like AC/DC and whilst the limelight may have been on Angus and Bon Scott and then latterly Brian Johnson, it's undeniable that AC/DC wouldn't have sounded the same without him and would likely have been much less successful without his hand at the helm.

MPs have voted to defeat Lords amendments to the government's plans for reforming judicial review.
The House of Commons tonight voted by margins of 66, 36 and 33 to remove the amendments and instead voted for a concession offered by justice secretary Chris Grayling last week.
That amendment will go back to the House of Lords for a vote on 9 December – a period referred to as 'ping pong' between the two houses of parliament.
The Lords voted last month to reject plans to make parties automatically pay costs for cases in which they intervene.
Under Grayling's amendment, interveners would be liable for costs if their evidence and representations have not been 'of significant assistance' to the court.
Costs would also be imposed if the intervener has behaved 'unreasonably' and if a significant part of their evidence is on matters that are not necessary for the court to consider.
During a debate to a near-empty House of Commons, Grayling said he was 'baffled' by continued opposition to his plans, which form part of the Criminal Justice and Courts Act.
He said the legislation would stop challenges being made on 'technicalities', adding: 'If you're a government minister you're confronted by the prospect of judicial review virtually every week'.
His amendment would allow parties to continue to bring justified judicial reviews, but prevent those made simply to delay decisions made legitimately by parliament.
Grayling said: 'If a group can find a clever enough lawyer, almost any government decision can be judicially reviewed.'
Conservative MP Geoffrey Cox said he opposed the government amendment and warned permission hearings will turn into a 'detailed and cumbersome process'.
Cox was one of two Conservative MPs, along with Zac Goldsmith, to vote against the government. Andrew Turner abstained.
Sarah Teather was the only Liberal Democrat MP to vote against the government, while newly elected UKIP MPs Douglas Carswell and Mark Reckless also joined the opposition.
Shadow justice minister Andy Slaughter said the attempt to impose retrospective costs created 'impossible hurdles' for charities and not-for-profit organisations attempting to intervene on someone's behalf.
He added: 'In rejecting the lords amendments, the Tory-led government is savagely attacking the rights of the individual citizen to take on the state in court, opening the door for unlawful governments to avoid scrutiny.'

What are the Best Debt Consolidation Companies in Tallassee AL
Who has the best Tallassee debt consolidation services?
Tallassee consolidation services offer a way of taking multiple debts and taking them all and wrapping them together into one payment. So if you have 5 different Tallassee loans, each with a different interest rate and length, a Tallassee debt consolidation loan will pay these off and then you will be left with one Tallassee loan with a total on the loan of all the paid off loans. The best part is that these types of Tallassee consolidation loans typically have lower interest rates than the ones you are getting rid of.
What is the best place in Alabama to find Tallassee credit consolidation lenders?
Search online for the best debt consolidation lenders in Tallassee AL. The reason the best place to find Tallassee debt consolidation lenders in Alabama is because you will be able to find the right Tallassee lender for you. Your local Tallassee banks may not specialize in the right Tallassee consolidation loans for you or have Alabama lending standards that are too stringent. By searching for the best Alabama debt consolidation loans online, you can assure yourself of getting the right Tallassee loan.
More On Debt Consolidation Loans in Tallassee AL
As I said above, prior to the credit crunch we had basically "easy money" whereby the Tallassee banks were encouraged to lend to pretty much anyone in Alabama with a pulse. As the economy tanked and their Tallassee debts mounted, a large portion of these people who got easy credit are now looking for Tallassee debt counseling programs. These Tallassee loans can be obtained but they are just like any other Tallassee loan. Your Alabama credit rating, your ability to repay the Tallassee loan, an availability of collateral to secure the loan and the current Tallassee bank policies on Alabama lending will determine if you get a Tallassee consolidation loan or not.
Where Is The Best Tallassee Loan Consolidation Service?
As I discussed above, the typical Tallassee loan consolidation service usually has a lower interest rate than the standard Alabama loan that is putting you in the poor house. Be aware that just because you are in trouble with your Tallassee monthly payments, does not mean that you will automatically get Tallassee loan consolidation.
Where Can I find The Best Tallassee Debt Consolidation Help?
I spoke of collateral before and this is a big aspect of why Tallassee debt consolidation lenders may give you Tallassee loan consolidation. Unsecured Tallassee loans are the riskiest loans to give by a Alabama lender. This is because if the Tallassee loan is defaulted on, the bank cannot get the money back. By requiring collateral to provide security on a loan (as some Tallassee banks do for Tallassee debt consolidation loans) the bank reduces their risk for the loan. A secured Tallassee loan allows the lender to offer the loan to you and then to offer the Tallassee loan at a reduced interest rate. Be careful to make sure you pay off the Tallassee credit card consolidation loan on time. If you were required to put up collateral and you default, the Tallassee bank will take that collateral as a way to recoup their loss.

We've already told you that Deep Silver will bring Killer is Dead to Europe (and XSEED to USA), and few days ago, finally something has moved. The german company released a series of trailer on YouTube, subbed in all the European languages. You can enjoy the English version below, but you can find all other languages on Deep Silver YouTube Channel.
We also remember that Deep Silver decided to put both Japanese and MULTI5 (en, fr, it, ger, spa) audio in the European version of the game, and we really appreciate this fan-driven choice.
Killer is Dead will be released worldwide on Summer 2013 on a TBA date.

Wagner's DIE MEISTERSINGER VON NÜRNBERG at San Francisco Opera
If, as the saying goes, brevity is the soul of wit, then how astonishing is it that Richard Wagner's comic-opera Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg somehow manages to be witty in spite of a running-time of over five hours. Of brevity, of succinctness, Wagner knew nothing. As in all his operas, here Wagner rambles on as if he had all the time in the world – and his audience's world --at his beck and call. He belabors every dramatic issue and even manages to belabor some of the admittedly beautiful musical issues he explores in Die Meistersinger. Yet, somehow, Wagner brings it off admirably in this opera. To this day, Die Meistersinger remains Wagner's most accessible and most popularly acclaimed opera.
However much the listener might wish that Wagner would simply "get on with it," one almost has to admire the way, in Die Meistersinger, Wagner sets up a conflict between conservative respect for hidebound tradition, on one hand, and creative innovation, on the other. Likewise, one can't help noticing that, in this conflict, the aristocratic but displaced newcomer to Nürnberg, Walther von Stolzing, offers the creatively innovative element while the stolid bourgeois guild members of the Mastersingers represent the backward-looking provincial community stuck in old, out-of-date models. And all this at a moment in history -- mid-16th century Germany -- at a time when Martin Luther's theses were challenging the old aristocratic Catholic order and the bourgeoisie was on the rise all over Europe.
What differentiates Die Meistersinger from all of Wagner's other operas, however, is the fact that here his characters are no mythologized, larger-than-life abstractions, as are the Dutchman and Senta in Der Fliegende Holländer; both of the principals in Tristan und Isolde; Venus, Tannhaüser and Elizabeth in Tannhaüser; Lohengrin and Elsa in Lohengrin; and, needless to say, all the characters in the Ring cycle and in Parsifal. Here, however, in Die Meistersinger, and only here, Wagner's characters are not superhuman gods, heroes or cold, albeit often overheated, abstractions. They are full-blooded human beings drawn from life, with all the complex web of good, bad, and ambiguous characteristics common to us all as human beings.
In Die Meistersinger, the pivotal character is Hans Sachs. A truly historical figure, Hans Sachs of Nürnberg was a 16th century poet, composer of songs, and playwright, who was well-loved in his native city. To this day, a statue of Hans Sachs stands in a main square of Nürnberg. In Wagner's Die Meistersinger, Hans Sachs occupies a central position between the hidebound conservatism of the Master-singers' guild and the romantically inspired innovations of Walther von Stolzing.
In this San Francisco Opera production, Hans Sachs is sung by English baritone James Rutherford, who makes his debut here. Compared with other singers I've heard in this role, such as James Morris and Bernd Weikl in San Fran-cisco, and the great Theo Adam in Munich back in 1969, James Rutherford was an adequate but by no means outstanding Hans Sachs. While I can't fault his singing, Rutherford's baritone lacked both the power and the depth needed to make this role stand out as it should. On the other hand, tenor Brandon Jovanovich as Walther von Stolzing turned in a superb performance, his voice ever supple though perhaps not as robust as usual because, as we learned from an announcement between Acts II and III, he was singing with a cold. Rachel Willis-Sørensen sang the role of Eva Pogner, and while she was certainly not on a par with Cheryl Studer in this role, she sang with a clear, bright soprano and good German diction. Mezzo-soprano Sasha Cooke and tenor Alek Shrader were a perfectly matched couple as Magdalene and David, each singing beautifully and endowing their roles with great dramatic presence. As Eva's father, Veit Pogner, Estonian bass Ain Anger was another standout performer. His supple bass and dignified demeanor made his character a believable burgher offering his daughter in marriage to the victor in a song-contest presided over by the Master-singers of Nürnberg. Baritone Martin Gantner was an appropriately ridiculous Beckmesser, the pedantic town clerk who lusts after Eva and therefore corrupts his role as judge (or Marker) of Walther's attempts to win acceptance to the Mastersingers' guild. The character of Beckmesser, by the way, was originally named Hans Lick in Wagner's first draft of Die Meistersinger. In thus naming this character and endowing him with a critically conservative attitude in musical matters, Wagner was satirizing the noted Viennese music critic Edward Hanslick, who had resoundingly criticized Wagner's earlier operas. Die Meister-singer has too many characters to credit all of them in a review, but one more singer, bass Andrea Silvestrelli, deserves mention for his fine performance as the Night Watchman.
Making his company debut in Die Meistersinger was English conductor Sir Mark Elder, who presided over about as taut a performance as this often flaccid opera can hope for. Particularly beautiful was the Act III vocal quintet when Hans Sachs, Magdalene and David, and Walther von Stolzing join with Eva in praising Walther's newly created song, which will ultimately win him the approval of the Mastersingers, admission to their guild, and Eva's hand in marriage. The Opera Chorus under the leadership of Ian Robertson sang beautifully. This was a new production of Die Meistersinger, actually a co-production with Lyric Opera of Chicago and Glyndebourne Festival Opera, conceived by David McVicar, who decided to set the opera in Wagner's youth (early 19th century) rather than the time of Hans Sachs (mid-16th century). I can't say I approve of this choice, but the sets provided by Designer Vicki Mortimer were pleasant to look at. Co-directors Marie Lambert and Ian Rutherford did their best to keep things moving even in the longwinded passages where little happens. Oh, if only Wagner had an editor!
Die Meistersinger continues through December 6.

This page gives you a brief introduction to this WordPress Block Reference. The blocks.wp-a2z.org website, a sub-domain of wp-a2z.org, is a catalogue of Blocks that have been developed for the WordPress Block editor aka Gutenberg.
To catalogue WordPress blocks delivered by WordPress core and plugins.
A complete reference of blocks would list all the known blocks and their source components: core, plugin, theme, or otherwise. This will always be a work in progress; the number of plugins that offer blocks is growing daily.
To partially satisfy, if only briefly, the following requirement:
Building a WordPress.org directory for discovering blocks, and a way to seamlessly install them.Item 8 – 9 Projects for 2019, Matt Mullenweg
This website is prototype of a directory. The basic process of documenting blocks is.
- Choose a plugin to be included in the directory.
- Install it.
- Register it, creating a summary of the blocks it delivers.
- Automatically generate Block CPTs and associated meta data for those blocks.
- Manually edit the generated Blocks CPTs
- Go to 1.
This semi automatic registration of each block will help us to build an index that may make block discovery easier. The custom taxonomies will allow the Block catalogue to be viewed from a range of viewpoints.
This solution will not help with the seamless installation. It will only help you identify the blocks you might want and the components you'll need to deliver them.

Freddie Mac has priced its second offering of multifamily structured credit risk debt notes nearly eight months after introducing the securities in May.
The notes, which are expected to settle on or around Dec. 29, are designed to reduce taxpayers' exposure to mortgage default risk by passing on a portion of the credit risk to private capital markets credit investors.
The $43.1 million SCR Notes Series 2016-MDN2, Class B, are linked to the credit and principal payment risk of a reference pool of multifamily mortgage loans backing state and local housing finance agency tax-exempt bonds for which Freddie Mac provides credit enhancement. The notes are not backed by the reference pool itself.
Wells Fargo is serving as the sole structuring agent, lead manager and sole book runner.


text: The On-Time Discharge Toolkit Tools to help you break gridlock and relieve capacity pressures Toolkit|April 3, 2018 Members across the globe continue to struggle with patient flow: beds are full, patients wait too long in the emergency department, and demand continues to grow. These problems are not new, and most hospitals have spent years working to improve efficiency. Unfortunately, we hear all too often that leaders struggle to sustain improvements, and as a result performance slips. Effective discharge practices are the bedrock of efficient patient flow, and we have designed a new toolkit to help leaders pinpoint how they can improve discharge processes to embed meaningful change. This toolkit helps indicate how to sequence activities so that they build on each other. The tools and resources help address common discharge delays in the acute setting, from setting a predicted date of discharge to assembling a care team to proactively plan for patient discharge need.

(CBS) — The 17-month-old Joliet Township girl who went missing in April and was found dead two days later beneath a couch in her home died of suffocation, the Will County Coroner's Office says.
The toddler died of asphyxia and her death is classified as a homicide, the coroner said in a news release issued Friday.
The conclusions are based on "police investigation, scene photographs and a complete autopsy examination with ancillary radiologic, microscopic and toxicologic studies," the office said.
Crosby's death has been controversial because state child-welfare agency representatives had deemed the girl was doing all right shortly before she went missing April 25. She was found dead April 27 in her Louis Road home underneath a couch.
Authorities said the child and her family had been living in squalid conditions.
The rental home later burned down to the ground.
For months, authorities have been pressured by community activists to make some movement on the case. The Will County State's Attorney's Office issued a statement Friday that Semaj has not been forgotten.
"The tragic death of this little girl has had a profound impact on all of the prosecutors and investigators involved in this case," the statement said.

Outside of Austria, save the skiers who are in the know, nobody had ever heard of Ötztal until 1991, when a couple of ramblers discovered, frozen in the ice, the mummified corpse of a sprightly megalithic man - Ötzi. This ambassador has done a great deal for the region's reputation, but he has simply brought to light of all the existing assets that make it the Mecca of Tyrolean skiing. It has more than 90 peaks over 3000 metres high, a 300 km ski area, 76 ski lifts and internationally renowned après-ski amenities which transform Sölden into Ibiza on ice every evening.
Oetz, the family resort
This is the first resort you encounter when you arrive. Oetz has preserved its small, typically historic centre with its baroque church, a few traditional fresco-decorated houses and a wonderful hostel. If you want very active skiing, Oetz is not the place as the ski area is modest with 34km of slopes, around ten ski lifts and a summit of 2020 metres. It is, however, ideal for relaxed, family downhill skiing.
For more physical activities such as snowshoeing or cross-country skiing, different organisations have guides available, many of whom speak English. Won over by the region's quality of life and having fallen to the charms of local beauties, robust men have decided to settle down in Oetz and the surrounding area. Whilst not begrudging their homeland they form a small British community which has turned to the businesses of sports, leisure and tourism. You have a good chance of coming across them in the summer when the resort takes on more of a sporting atmosphere. Oetz is in fact an important base for canyoning and white water rafting due to its location on the banks of the torrid currents of the Ötztaler Ache.
Sölden the night owl
Forty minutes by car from Oetz there is a complete change of atmosphere - a feverish and youthful one. The hardened enthusiasts of ski and board culture scale the 34 ski lifts connecting Sölden to Gaislachkogl (3058 m), Schwarze Schneid (3 370 m) and Tiefenbachkogl (3 309 m) which is over-towered by the imposing Wildspitze (3 774 m). The trend favoured here is more towards snowboarding than in the other stations, but there is enough room for everyone on the 146km area of slopes (58km of blue runs, 58km of red and 29km of black.) And you are sure to have quality snow right up until the Spring, not to mention the slopes on the two glaciers of the Tiefenbach Gletscher and the Rettenbach Gletscher.
Curiously enough, the slopes are not too congested and you don't have to queue at the ski lifts. However this is one of Austria's most popular resorts with a population of 2000 for most of the year rising to 10000 during the winter season. But it is only at the last of the cable car stops that you become fully aware of the the resort's character. This one has nothing traditional about it. It devotes itself completely to après-ski, as seen by the sudden effervescence which starts up at the end of an afternoon in the myriad of bars and clubs that Sölden is renowned for.
Spend an evening at the Schirm Bar, one of the top places for nightlife and après-ski. But best of luck making your way to the bar! The music is at full blast and the jubilant crowd (comprising largely of Germans and Dutch people) burst into song with tankards in hand: "Heit ist so a schöner Tag, la-la-la-la-la !". These cheesy songs of national glory by Tim Toupet lend themselves to Black Lace style dance moves.
Another local celebrity in the same vein is DJ Ötzi. If you were to believe the natives his hits have been heard around the planet and he has made a fortune, which is quite possible judging by the way his Tyrolean Techno is played over and again at Sankt Anton, in the heart of Sölden. This is a long way from the great era of Falco with his Rock me Amadeus, but as they say here, « er macht coole Musik »… After a hard day's skiing you obviously don't want anything more.
Ötzi, a prehistoric polar
The other Ötzi - the real one, lived 3300 years BC and had been sleeping peacefully in his glacier ever since. This was until 1991 when he was discovered in excellent condition wearing the complete outfit of a Neolithic gentleman: a leather coat, a cape made from vegetable fibres, a bag containing everything for making fire, a bow, a quiver full of arrows, a flint bladed knife and the latest of that period's technology – one of the first copper axes. In other words Ötzi was a real find and Italy and Austria came to wrangle over the rights of ownership of this illustrious ancestor. The Italians finally won and Ötzi is from now on, resting in a refrigerated glass case at the Archaeological museum of Bozen-Bolzan.
But how, in the prime of his life at the age of 45, did Ötzi die? There were all kinds of theories. Did he die of hunger? Was he caught by the snow as he tried to cross a mountain pass? Eventually an autopsy revealed the presence of an arrow in the shoulder. Ötzi had been the victim of a cowardly murder, something that evidently takes place in every era! Another strange phenomenon peddled by the media was the "Curse of Ötzi." Seven people who had approached the mummy from near or far were to die in the years that followed... However you can now visit and enjoy "Ötzi's village", an open air archaeological museum without any risk at all!
Obergurgl, at the world's end
A quarter of an hour by car from Sölden, Obergurgl is huddled up at the very end of the valley at an altitude of 1930 m. At this point there is no more road, nothing. You find yourself at the end of the world. It is quite a chic, upmarket resort which is fairly small and there is such an incredible calmness that you almost become self-conscious hearing your steps crunching in the snow. With a view over approximately twenty high peaks, the environment is exceptional and you can ski here in complete serenity over an area of 110km far from the crowds, which is almost a unique phenomena in Europe. The snow here is as exquisite, powdery and smooth as you could wish for and slippery like a silk stocking.
Obergurgl is coupled with another resort at a higher altitude, Horchgurgl (2150 m), the highest parish in Austria with a ski area that ascends to 3080 m.

Aqua Dome Spa Centre
Situated in Längenfeld, mid way between Oetz and Sölden, the Aqua Dome is the Tyrol's biggest spa. The open air baths with a temperature of 40°c and sunsets over snow covered peaks as a backdrop are an absolute must after a day's skiing. www.aqua-dome.at

Slovenia's Olive Oils Are Among the Best in the World
Olive oils from eight Slovenian manufacturers are among the 500 best olive oils from around the world. These are the data of the world famous specialized publication Flos Olei.
The oils that received the highest marks (from 95 to 100 points) include Slovenian brands Dujc, Jenko and Morgan. They are followed by olive oils Adamič – Olje Ronkaldo, Ekološka Kmetija Bem – Boris Sabadin, Ekološka kmetija Bočaj and Oleum Solis – Matjaž Bordon.
Among the seven olive oils originating from Slovenia's Istria, there is the oil produced by the Monte Rosso farm, which is geographically located on the Croatian side of the border, but belongs to the Slovenian owner.
The ranking also includes olive oils from Japan, New Zealand and Peru. The greatest amount of olive oils represented in the ranking (almost half of all claimed sorts) is produced in Italy. Croatia is also well represented (80 olive oils with 2 from Dalmatia and the rest from Istria).
