FT: Liverpool 3-1 Manchester United
Sadio Mane 24′ Xherdan Shaqiri 73′, 81′ // Jesse Lingard 33′
Mourinho: "They [Liverpool] are a better team than us."
"The players gave everything"…
"I am tired of looking at Robertson, he makes like 100 sprints per minute. Absolutely incredible."
"Liverpool deserved their victory but it's hard for my players to work as hard as they did and then lose"
"I think we can [claw back gap to top four, 11 points]. What gives me that belief? We played away to Liverpool, Chelsea and City, the three best teams apart from Tottenham. We can get more points in second part of season."
"We have lots of players who are always injured. And not just with me, before me. When you are permanently injured, physicality is hard to get."
Comparing LFC to his Porto: "The best team in defensive transition. They fought like dogs."
"I'm more than happy with the players' effort and attitude on the pitch. I assume the responsibilities for the defeat. They gave absolutely everything."
Man of the match? 🔴
— The Anfield Talk (@TheAnfieldTalk) December 16, 2018
Liverpool have come away from Anfield back on top of the Premier League table exorcising the demon that is Jose Mourinho with an amazing team performance.
Xherdan Shaqiri is the man of the hour with his quick-fire brace firing Liverpool back into pole position in the title race.
Two brutal deflections but two well deserved goals see Liverpool beat Manchester United for the first time since 2014. IT TRULY IS CHRISTMAS.
The goal that Manchester United scored was an obscenely lucky one that was gifted to them by Alisson who fumbled a cross into the path of Jesse Lingard.
90+2′ It's YNWA
You'll Never Walk Alone now has it's turn on the lips of those inside Anfield.
90+1′ Just three added.
90+1′ "Don't sack Mourinho"
The chant that rings around Anfield is one in support of the Manchester United manager…
90′ Henderson with a shot
Also over the bar. Liverpool just ticking down the seconds.
89′ 33 to 5
Attempts for the two sides tonight. Liverpool with 33 and United only managing five… Liverpool battering them.
87′ Not long now
Liverpool are quite happy just to sit back and see the game out, remember this would be the first time since 2014 that Liverpool beat United.
85′ United's final sub…
Juan Mata comes on for Jesse Lingard. No Pogba at all today. Hmmm.
84′ Fellaini…
with the worst shot of the evening. Closer to the corner flag than Alisson.
Jordan Henderson replaces Sadio Mane.
83′ Wijnaldum shoots again
Straight at De Gea again. Liverpool well on top now and cruising to all three points.
79′ Manchester United sub.
Anthony Martial is coming on for Ander Herrera.
Also, it took Shaqiri all of 144 seconds to score.
77′ Anfield rocking
Allez, Allez, Allez is rocking around Anfield as Lee Dixon claims that it's the loudest he's ever heard Anfield. It's bouncing inside the stadium.
76′ Lingard.
He takes a first time shot and absolutely skies it. Jeers from all round Anfield directed at the 26-year-old child prodigy.
75′ Wijnaldum drives
He pushes forward and forces a shot wide with his left foot. It's a huge fifteen minutes for the Reds now.
71′ Fabinho shot
Fab thumps the ball towards goal, De Gea catches the ball easily.
70′ A nervy final 20 awaits
Shaqiri finally comes on for Keita and there's less than 20 minutes left now. Jose Mourinho's game-plan being executed to perfection.
68′ Wijnaldum shot
67′ Shaqiri coming on…
It's Naby Keita coming off for Xherdan.
A brilliant header from Andy Robertson denies a certain United goal and a clear header for Fellaini.
Thirteen corners for Liverpool so far and literally nothing happening from any of them.
62′ Two corners
Two corners in quick succession come to nothing, United standing their ground well.
59′ Salah being marked out
United are doing a number on Mo Salah today, he's being marked out of the game completely.
58′ Weird Clyne stat:
Clyne shots in the last two minutes: 2
Clyne shots in the rest of his Liverpool career: 2
58′ And again…
Clyne goes for another but this one's out for a goal kick.
57′ Clyne shoots
Clyne tries one from about 35 yards and it gets deflected and out for a corner.
54′ United time-wasting already…
Bailly goes down following Firmino's shot and takes two whole minutes to realise that it was his back hurting and not his head.
52′ Vital De Gea save.
Firmino with some amazing footwork finds himself in shooting space and De Gea gets down so quick to deny Firmino. Keita's follow up is blocked.
50′ Frustration
The trick for Liverpool here will to be not to get too frustrated at the fact that United will try and hold out for a draw at Anfield. Chances will come with pressure.
48′ United back to a four
United have gone back to a more traditional back four with the introduction of Marouane Fellaini.
46′ Back underway
Liverpool are attacking the Kop in the second half, they'll be hoping that it will provide the extra boost needed to get the victory.
Fab Fabinho
Best player in that half? #LFC
— The Anfield Talk (@TheAnfieldTalk) December 16, 2018
Only 97% of the vote…
United substitution
Maraoune Fellaini is coming on for the second half…
First half fan reaction
Liverpool active but missing quality in the box. Will probably be punished in the second half. Martial gets the winner.
— United Fan forever (@longgone2298) December 16, 2018
Should be winning… we are to casual with 1-2 around box, also not liking Keita on right but they are there 4 taking
— Hasinio05 🐪 (@MrMaker14) December 16, 2018
Liverpool aren't exploiting United's left wing enough. Darmian not strong in a 3 man defense and Dalot still in the accustomization phase. Why convey most of your attacks on the wing against Lindeöf who's been their best defender all season long?
— Maxi (@MaaxiAngelo) December 16, 2018
That's exactly why Fabinho should start over Henderson every game. Fabinho sees an opportunity for a goal, whereas Henderson would have passed that ball sideways.

"United will be happy with a point now"
United will be happy with point now
— . (@alad12346) December 16, 2018
Chances are, he's right, United may well be happy with a point now but Jurgen Klopp will most certainly not be.
First half player ratings:
Alisson – 5 – mistake for the United goal uncharacteristic of him but nevertheless.
Nathaniel Clyne – 6
Dejan Lovren – 6
Virgil van Dijk – 6
Andy Robertson – 7 – always gives 110% and that's the exact case here.
Gini Wijnaldum – 6
Naby Keita – 7 – trying to make things happen, running around a lot and getting on people's nerves. Does well to survive a challenge from Lukaku.
Fabinho – 9 – our best player in the first half. Created the goal and has been absolutely everywhere too. He's pressed, he's passed and he's even had a shot or two. World class performance from Fabinho so far.
Mo Salah – 6
Sadio Mane – 8 – breaks his eight game scoring duck with a fabulous finish. Could have had a second.
Roberto Firmino – 6
HALF-TIME: Liverpool 1-1 Manchester United
45+1′ Two minutes added.
45′ Stagnating a bit here.
Nothing really happening at the moment, Liverpool enjoying possession in midfield. Trying to make something happen before half-time but nothing's getting through United's high-block at the moment. Fabinho has a got out for a corner.
42′ Alisson save.
Herrara tries his luck from distance and Alisson is equal to it despite an awkward deflection.
41′ A bit unsure now.
The Reds are probably looking forward to half-time now. United are much more into this game since the goal and Jurgen Klopp will want to get his lads in and calm them down a bit.
39′ Lukaku booked.
A wild challenge on Naby Keita sees Romelu Lukaku booked.
37′ Fabinho shining
Some really good press from Fabinho, he tries to play Mane through but nothing comes of it. The Brazilian has been our best player so far today.
34′ Absolute gift.
Liverpool will have to show some character now to get back into the lead. Shocking from Alisson but the Reds need to pick themselves up straight away and get back to it.
33′ 1-1.
Jesse Lingard equalises for United thanks to an error from Alisson.
30′ Pushing for a second
Liverpool haven't settled for their one goal advantage. The Reds are fully pushing for a second goal here, not letting up pressure on United. At. All.
28′ Lovren over…
The resultant corner falls to Dejan Lovren after the ball pinged around in the box a little. The Croat can only launch the ball over the bar.
27′ Dalot booked.
Diogo Dalot is the first player booked this evening thanks to a heavy challenge on Andy Robertson.
SADIO MANE PUTS LIVERPOOL AHEAD AGAINST UNITED! Fabinho plays an absolutely loving chip pass into the box taking every single Manchester United defender out of the game. Mane breaks his EIGHT game goalless duck with an amazing finish. De Gea had no chance.
22′ Control
Liverpool firmly in control here, no chances in the last few minutes but Fabinho had a lovely tackle on Jesse Lingard and Andy Robertson shows his unmatchable work ethic to track back and win the ball back for the Reds…
Liverpool have had nine shots here in the opening 20 minutes… United have only one.
19′ Catching our breath.
Finally a chance to catch our breath here as the last few minutes have been dominated by some end-to-end midfield action. No clear-cut chances for either side just yet but the Reds look much more likely.
16′ Exactly what we expected to happen
Manchester United have set-up at Anfield exactly how we expected them to and the Reds are facing little surprise and as a result of that they are well equipped to deal with what United are offering here.
15′ Salah…
Salah tries his luck now, with his shot going well over the bar. Liverpool desperate for something to happen early here…
12′ Fabinho mis-hit…
Mane drives straight at United going past them like a knife through butter but the Senegalese winger plays the ball back to Fabinho who mis-kicks his shot absurdly.
11′ What a frantic start
It's been a manic start to the game at Anfield with Liverpool absolutely hammering United back into their own box. Chances for both sides (kind of).
United get a reprieve after Liverpool fail to capitalise on their third corner of the game.
9′ De Gea again…
De Gea forced into another save. This time it's Fabinho with the effort that comes off a useless clearance from Lindelof.
8′ BIG Virgil
Huge cheers for today's captain as Virgil van Dijk makes easy work of out-muscle-ing Romelu Lukaku
Firmino forces a good save from David De Gea, with Mo Salah going down on the rebound but nothing given by the referee.
Typical world-class performance from De Gea against us incoming?
4′ United goal ruled out.
Liverpool escape as United have a goal ruled out for offside. Lukaku penalised and it was a perfect decision from the linesman.
2′ Corner to LFC…
An early corner after Salah picks out Firmino. However it comes to nothing…
Underway at Anfield… stay tuned for all the matchday coverage.
Chris Smalling has been injured in the Manchester United warm up! Eric Bailly will now start for United with Phil Jones taking the position on the bench…

Mourinho expected to park his figurative bus…
Liverpool fans are collectively expecting United to play a very negative game at Anfield today. It's the same tactic that United have employed each time that they have played the Reds in the last few years.
What else would you expect from Mourinho, though?

Liverpool's unfortunate record vs United
Liverpool haven't beaten United in the League since 2014. Victory in the Europa League in 2016 sating the appetite for victory against the Red Devils temporarily.Embed from Getty Images
Jurgen Klopp will be seeking to get his FIRST EVER win against United in the League, with the latter side always settling for nothing more than a draw.Embed from Getty Images
It's been a tough fixture every time that it's come up for Liverpool in the last few years and the added pressure that a victory would send Liverpool back top won't be helping the dressing room atmosphere.
The only consolation is that Liverpool are most certainly a team on the rise, whereas United are dwindling under Mourinho, playing football that is not attractive and not even getting results anymore.
Only 25 minutes until kick-off.
Arsenal lose…
Arsenal have lost 3-2 to Southampton to end their long unbeaten run. Liverpool loanee Danny Ings scored a brace against the Gunners as Southampton climb out of the relegation zone with the victory.
There aren't any real implications on today's game with Arsenal losing other than the fact that United could close the gap between them and Arsenal from eight points to five.

Record setters?
Liverpool have the chance to set a club record today. Should the Reds avoid defeat, they will set the club record for games unbeaten in the Premier League. The current tally of games if 17, tied with that of Rafa Benitez's Liverpool side through 2008.
Embed from Getty Images
Liverpool are lining up as follows: Alisson, Nathaniel Clyne, Virgil van Dijk, Dejan Lovren, Andy Robertson, Gini Wijnaldum, Fabinho, Naby Keita, Roberto Firmino, Mo Salah and Sadio Mane.
United: David De Gea, Victor Lindelof, Chris Smalling, Matteo Darmian, Jesse Lingard, Ashley Young, Diogo Dalot, Ander Herrera, Nemanja Matic, Romelu Lukaku, Marcus Rashford.
The statement of intent is clear from Jurgen Klopp. A very positive and attack minded midfield consisting of Keita, Wijnaldum and Fabinho is something that fans have been yearning for.
Jordan Henderson's omission is surprising but Jurgen Klopp may finally be ready to fully integrate both Fabinho and Keita into the starting line-up more consistently than he has done in the past months.
Nathaniel Clyne starts at right-back as expected after both Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold have both gotten injured in the last couple of weeks. It's time for him and Dejan Lovren both to step up.
Manchester United's biggest story in their line-up is the fact that Paul Pogba only makes the bench. This could be a sign of things to come from Jose Mourinho's team though. They line-up ready to play the expected high-block system that Mourinho has frequented when playing against Liverpool in recent years.
The front three is as normal for the Reds, but fans will be hoping that Sadio Mane can find his shooting boots after missing a plethora of chances against Napoli in midweek.

the show/hide details button (and menu command) isn't working. Trying the menu command several times eventually got the details view to disappear, but then I couldn't bring it back again. The "details" item in the "view" menu is always checked...regardless of how often I try and toggle it.
another minor thing...if I edit a field or multiple fields directly in list view (i.e. by single clicking on a field, instead of going into the edit screen) the field previously changed is "greyed out". Sometimes 3 or 4 fields are greyed out while I'm making an edit or addition. No big deal so far, as they revert to normal after i'm done editing. I can send a screen shot if I'm not explaining it well.

RoCat is the portmanteau "ship" name representing internationally recognized teaching artists, Robert LaWarre and C.A.Traen. (Rob + Cat = RoCat) We have recently relocated to the Memphis area, Cat from Las Vegas and Rob from Orlando, and Team RoCat is eager to join and contribute to the arts community of Downtown Memphis.
LaWarre and Traen each have over a decade of teaching experience and their first conversations bonded them together by their shared personal and spiritual callings to ceramics education, sharing their work, and connecting with future collaborators to help others reach their goals.
These shared aspirations led to fruitful collaborations teaching joint workshops abroad as well as representing local and national arts organizations including National K12 Ceramics Foundation, National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA), and International Ceramic Artists Network (ICAN).
Together, LaWarre active since 2006 and Traen since 2012, have earned more than 40 national and international awards, taught workshops, exhibited, and are collected in the United States, Germany, Netherlands, France, Italy, Croatia, China, India, Taiwan, Korea, Austria, Slovenia, England, and Canada.
Each have had their own levels of success with their work internationally most notably with Traen being awarded the Silver Prize for the ICMEA Emerging Artist exhibition in Fuping, China and the Plata Argenta at the 38th International Ceramics Biennale in Gualdo Tadino, Italy and LaWarre honored with the Silver Prize at the Taiwan International Gold Teapot Prizeand taking the Gold Prize for theMungyeong International Chasabal Festival in Korea.

I've been lucky to spend three Thanksgivings in a row in the Free State of Jones at my mom's table. She has really perfected the art of the turkey day meal and I have perfected the art of eating it. But this year my sister will be watching the Macy's parade in person, so it looks as if it may just be my brother Big Al, Lucas, Graham and me at her side.
It will be a bittersweet moment, for my sister will certainly be missed along with my niece and nephew and brother-in-law, but there will be no fighting over deviled eggs. It's astonishing how a 95-pound woman can take down deviled eggs — stealthily, I might add — and hoard crescent rolls like a squirrel hoards nuts. (Nobody wants crescent rolls anyway. It's so dumb.)
So, here is how this year will go. Big Al and I will fry up about a half-dozen turkeys for friends and neighbors. But if we fry up a turkey for you we will keep the giblets. At the very least we get the liver as tribute. Separately, we fry up livers and douse them with ketchup and hot sauce. While each turkey is being fried, we'll throw the football. Timers will be set. Propane will be exhausted. Birds will be delicious.
This year I intend to do the dressing here and bootleg it across state lines. My mom handles the rest. Casseroles, desserts and all cold items will come from her kitchen. Maybe we can experiment a little this year.
For the most part, I hope to stick close to tradition. Maybe a crescent roll moratorium is in order. Here in Mobile, though, you have plenty of options to take the family out for many fantastic meals. Let's see what's in store for the non-DIY crowd.
The Battle House
The Battle House's Trellis Room is proud to present its Thanksgiving Brunch Buffet in the Crystal Ballroom, and this may be tough to beat.
Start yourself off with a spinach salad with hard-cooked eggs, house-cured bacon and sliced mushrooms or a Caesar with Kalamata olives, red onions, eggs and house-made croutons. If those don't sound appealing, you might be forced to try the shrimp remoulade salad with organic spring mix, grape tomatoes, hearts of palm and chilled jumbo shrimp — with house-made remoulade, of course.
After your greens, visit one of the three carving stations. House-smoked turkey breast with turkey demi-glace cannot be skipped on turkey day. Slow-roasted prime rib with freshly shaved horseradish sauce sounds delightful. Glazed smoked ham with pineapple chutney is a must.
Dressing, sweet potatoes, cranberry salad and a mac-and-cheese station with shrimp, lobster, tasso, bacon and jalapenos are amped-up normal sides. Haricots verts and Spinach Madeline put the hoity in the toity.
Wash it down with pumpkin cheesecake, apple cobbler with crème anglaise or pecan pie.
Price is $59 per adult, half price for children ages 6-12 and children under 6 eat free. For reservations, call 251-338-5441.
Fairhope Inn
Across the bay the menus sound sweet, too. First course at Fairhope Inn is a choice of roasted butternut squash, apple and fennel soup or fall mesclun mix with poached pears, candied pecans, Gorgonzola, grape tomatoes and roasted-onion balsamic vinaigrette.
For entrees the choices are roasted turkey with a Conecuh sausage stuffing, cranberry sauce and gravy with haricots verts or bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin with a sausage lentil cassoulet and apple demi-glace. A third option is cornmeal-seared red snapper with whipped sweet potatoes, haricots verts and hollandaise.
Tiramisu, pecan pie a la mode and pumpkin cheesecake are the desserts. Adult plates are $40. Good luck deciding.
Also available is a kids menu with chicken fingers or small turkey, macaroni and cheese, green beans and ice cream for $20. Call for reservations at 251-928-6226.
Grand Hotel
Plans for Thanksgiving at Point Clear's Grand Hotel Marriott Resort are humongous. The day buffet is unreal. Let's begin with the soup. Red curry shellfish, lemongrass, ginger, wild mushroom, thyme, tarragon and brandy sounds exquisite.
I believe I counted 10 different salads.
The displays are far too many to mention, but include cold smoked Gulf fish, Alabama oysters, PEI mussels, littleneck clams, pork belly and blue cheese, Robbie's Tabasco and Gulf crab, artisanal cheeses and crab legs.
Stations have pecan-smoked tomahawk prime rib, Black Hills Farm porchetta and a whole hog stuffed with Conecuh sausage, herbs and Covey Rise Farm apples.
Entrees include traditional items but grab you with sweet-tea-brined roasted turkey, smoked turkey neck gravy, steamed crab legs with butter, butternut squash mezzalune, red chili molasses sweet potato with melted marshmallows and sorghum-glazed root vegetables.
The desserts are far too many to list. As a matter of fact, each section of this menu has more than I can fit. The price per adult is $64.95 and $32.50 for children ages 5-11. Call 251-928-9201 for reservations.
Go out or stay in, either way everybody wins. Pass the deviled eggs, please.

For instance, let's say you're making a custom cart, and you want a light on the front. Could you parent a light_dynamic to the cart, so that as it moves around the light swings around and illuminates various things?

How do I clean my cat cave?
They are easy to clean, hand wash in lukewarm water, press out any excess water and re-shape while wet, then leave to dry naturally.
What are the cat caves made from?
Our caves are made from the highest quality soft merino wool. The dye used on the wool is a veggie based dye that is 100% natural and organic.
How is the wool sourced and what is the process?
The wool is sourced from New Zealand and imported into Nepal where the wool is cleaned and dyed. No chemicals are used in the process.
How long does it take for an order to arrive?
Please refer to our shipping policy page for further details.
I ordered more than one item, but only received one... where's my order?
Some of our items ship separately from different locations so please do not worry if you do not receive all your items at once, they are on the way.
The hole is too small for my cat, what can I do?
You can cut the hole larger for your cat if you wish, all you need is a sharp pair of scissors. Just to note you will not be able to return the item if you cut the hole larger.
How is my parcel sent and do I need to sign for my order?
Please note that all Cat Caves and Wool Toys are sent via courier. Therefore you must provide a valid phone number for the courier company to contact you. You will also be required to sign for your parcel. We cannot deliver to a PO box so please ensure the address is a physical address.

All our transactions are in USD. If your payment method is based in a different currency you may be charged an international transaction fee by your bank or card issuer. The exchange rate will be decided by your bank or card issuer.
Will I be charged customs or taxes?
All prices displayed on our website are tax-free in USD, which means you may be liable to pay for any VAT, tariff, duties, taxes, handling fees and customs clearance charges required by your country for importing consumer goods.
We do not collect this beforehand, and cannot give you an estimate of the cost - charges vary around the world.
As an international consumer, please do your research to ensure there are no surprise charges when clearing your package through customs, and to have an idea of what the additional cost may be.

Installing Django on a shell hosting account
Django can only be installed on our shell hosting accounts. This is because setting up Django requires you to install some Python packages. Django also needs to be configured from the shell by running commands, making it impossible to do on your own if you have a non-shell hosting account.
Start by logging into your shell
account. Change to the directory where you want to install Django.
Typically this would be either the root level of a website directory
tree such as
~/www/example.com, or a subdirectory of a
website, such as
Installing Django dependencies
Before we can install Django, we need to install a Python module called 'flup'. Flup allows Python to work with FastCGI, which is a way of executing server side applications. Assuming that you are in the directory where you want to install Django, make a directory called installation (you can remove this later) and then change directory into it.
mkdir installation cd installation
Once you are in the installation folder, you need to find the
latest version of Flup.
Look for the newest version of 'flup-x.x.x.tar.gz', where the x's
represent a version number. Once you find this file, right-click on the
name of the file and copy it's link to your clipboard. You then need to
switch back to your terminal and download the file using the command
wget [link you just copied to the clipboard]. Once the file
has downloaded, use the command
tar -xzvf
flup-x.x.x.tar.gz, to extract the files from the tar.gz
archive. Change directory into the flup-x.x.x directory that has just
been extracted using the command
cd flup-x.x.x.
To install the Flup module, use the command
python setup.py
install --user. You won't have permissions to install the
module system wide, which is why the
--user option is used.
This means that the module is only installed for your user.
Before continuing, change directory up a level to the installation folder, using the command
cd ...
Installing Django
Assuming that you are now in the installation folder, you need to find the latest version of Django from here. Right-click on the download link for 'Django-x.x.x.tar.gz' under 'Option 1. Get the latest official version'. You then need to switch back to your terminal and download the file using the command
wget [link you just copied to the clipboard] -O django.tar.gz. Once the file has downloaded, use the command
tar -xzvf django.tar.gz, to extract the files from the tar.gz archive. Change directory into the 'Django-x.x.x' directory that has just been extracted using the command
cd Django-x.x.x.
To install Django, use the command
python setup.py install --user.
You now need to change back into the directory that you would like to create your Django site in. Assuming you are in the 'Django-x.x.x' directory, you will be able to do this will the command
cd ../... You can now remove the installation directory using
rm -r installation.
Creating a Django project
It's now time to create a Django project. You can do this using the command
python ~/.local/bin/django-admin.py startproject [project name]. If you use the command
ls, you should see that a folder has been created with the name of your project.
Creating a .htaccess file
Create a
.htaccess file to tell the Apache web server to
execute FastCGI scripts.
AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ django.fcgi/$1 [QSA,L]
The FastCGI script
Create the
django.fcgi script that we just told
Apache to run.
#!/usr/bin/python import sys, os # Add a custom Python path to your project directory. sys.path.append("[project foder]") # Switch to the directory of your project. os.chdir("[project folder]") # Set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable. os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "[project name].settings" from django.core.servers.fastcgi import runfastcgi runfastcgi(method="threaded", daemonize="false")
You can find the full path of your project by changing directory into
your project folder using the command
cd [project name] and
then running the command
pwd. Replace each [project folder]
with the output of the
pwd command and replace [project
name] with the name of your project.
You need to run the command
chmod 755 django.fcgi, which
effectively means that only your user is allowed to read, write and
execute the script, and that anyone in the same user group as you, or
any other users, can only read and execute the file. This is needed
because FastCGI will not execute the script if other users/groups have
write access to it. You will also need to change the permissions of the
directory which contains the FastCGI script. Assuming you are currently
in the directory containing the FastCGI script, you can do this using
the command
chmod 755 ..
Your first Django-powered page
Open up a web browser and head over to the site where you have just installed Django. You should see a page with the title 'It Worked!'.
Further reading
The Django Project have a collection of introduction tutorials that will take your new site further. We suggest you keep reading there!

The well-fed black hen has taken up residence behind the electronic billboard at Glendale Community College for at least two months.
The chicken has dodged animal control officers several times by attempting risky flight maneuvers into traffic at Verdugo Road and Mountain Street.
The brazen bird was walking into the intersection, forcing cars to swerve around it.
Startled by traffic, the chicken quickly turned around and went back to the sidewalk.
Ricky Whitman, spokeswoman for the Pasadena Humane Society, says the chicken is creating dangerous traffic conditions for drivers.
Animal control officials say without the extra food, the bird would become weak enough for them to catch it.
They say tranquilizers are out of the question because the chicken is too small.
Why did the chicken cross the road?

I decided to catch up on some of the shows slowly accruing on my DVR… which included a BBC2 documentary about the Great Kumbh Mela, an "awe-inspiring celebration of the world's oldest religion [which] happens every 12 years at the place where Hindus believe two sacred rivers meet. For many Hindus this is their most important pilgrimage, and it happens at one of the most holy sites in India. Hindus come to cleanse themselves in the sacred waters of the river Ganges, to pray and emerge purified and renewed." The programme followed several UK-based believers (including a white lady who'd been staying at a yoga retreat in India) as they took in the sights, sounds and smells of the festival, before taking a dip in the Ganges… or not, as the case may be.
One of the participants was Shivali Bhammer, a former investment banker born and raised in London's fancy-schmancy Knightsbridge area, who is now pursuing a career as a devotional singer and dancer. She's already released two albums, The Bhajan Project and Urban Temple, which apparently went to No. 1 on the iTunes World Music chart. To quote the lady herself: "Urban Temple is a reflection of my own personal journey, merging my western background with my Indian roots. The music is the western side of my upbringing, and the lyrics are a direct result of my discovering the core of my roots and the spirituality it inspires in me. I feel truly blessed to be in this unique position and want to share it with others."
Clips from one of her videos were shown during her introduction, and she also broke out some dance moves after encountering a group of Shiva-centric singers on the street. Obviously I'm not an expert on Indian music and movement, but I thought she had a very sweet voice, and a very graceful body… and seemed admirably un-phased while chatting with naked, ash-covered Sadhus (holy men). Unfortunately, after all the build-up (which including hiring a private boat to take her out to a quieter, cleaner section of the river), she chickened out and decided against immersing herself in the karma-cleansing waters… contenting herself with a little arm-washing, and a bit of defensive rationalisation. To be fair, I totally sympathise with her (for all its sacredness, the Ganges is lousy with sewage), and would probably have done the same thing myself… it's just unfortunate for her that she had a BBC camera crew sat in the boat, filming her flip-flop… and that all the other, less-well-off pilgrims had cheerfully gone bathing in the murky brown water by the banks.
So, a good showcase for her as a performer, but I doubt we'll be seeing her presenting a Bear Grylls-style survival show anytime soon!

God: gave us grace, we hesitate…
Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV) "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast".
It has been available for years; the explanation and the attainment is readily explained yet millions choose to resist and be resistant to its completion. Grace does not require to be a 9-5 worker or do cartwheels to create a windstorm.
Grace is there and it is readily available: just walk in His love and receive it. Mercy there was grace and it is free. God thought of us way before the world came into being; start thinking about Him.

Even after the storm has passed, danger may linger.
More people die after a hurricane than during. The winds may die down, but flooding and other hazards can still abound. A wrong step could be fatal.
"The storm is bad enough," said Arthur St. Amand, the Broward Emergency Preparedness director. "The recovery is long term. It's agonizing."
Set priorities and tackle the life-threatening situations before you handle the small things.
Here's what to do - and what not to do:
-- Don't rush into anything if there's no immediate danger. Take a good look around. There could be hazards.
-- Check your family and neighbors. Treat injuries with your first-aid kit. Try to call for help if injuries are beyond your expertise.
-- Call police or utility companies immediately to report any sparking or downed power lines. Stay away from trees touching power lines. Don't bother to report interruption in electric, gas, water or telephone service; everyone has the same problems.
-- Don't touch any electrical appliances, wires or equipment unless they're in a dry area. Don't turn on anything electrical, not even the main power source in your house, until you are sure the wiring is safe. You may need an electrician to check the house.
-- Don't strike matches until you're sure no gas is leaking.
-- Be careful of sharp objects. Wear heavy boots and gloves when working in debris.
-- Don't use tap water until the local water utility, through the media, says it's safe.
-- Notify one out-of-town friend or family member that you are safe and ask that person to tell everyone else. Otherwise, stay off the phone.
-- Open all windows to air out the house.
-- Do an inventory of your supplies. How much food is left? How much water? How much more will you need in the next week?
-- Check food for spoilage. Don't open the freezer, refrigerator or ice chest often.
-- Find insurance documents and other important papers.
-- Avoid driving. Roads may be littered with nails and glass.
-- Don't overexert yourself.
-- Obey all curfews.

I am going to expose ACT Broadband for its wrong business module and terrible customer service. This is important and should be known to all broadband users that such malpractices are taking place, which impacts users businesses and their service delivery. In fact, I am shocked to know ACT broadband is involve cheating practices to make few lakh by halting Internet connectivity to regular customers.
I have been a happy customer of ACT broadband in Chennai. Everything was fine until ACT decided to cash-in popularity of the Cricket world cup 2015. On 26 March 2015 while my broadband connection disrupted in the morning, I thought to wait for half hours for auto resolution of the issue. The issue persists even after 30 minutes, so I called to customer care to get resolution on internet access failure.
The customer care representative asked me to initiate command prompt action to resolve the issue. While the issue was not resolved on command prompt action, the executive asked me to wait for four hours to correct this malfunction by the back-end technical team.
→ Terrible Customer Support
After four hours, I called again as I could not able to access Google or any other website except ACT portal home page. I was pleased with a two hours waiting request from the customer care executive. By 6:30 PM, I made the fourth call to know status of my complaint. Once again, I had repeated answer from the executive to wait for next two hours. So, I got angry and demand to have word with a senior officer.
To cool my anger, a senior officer came online and explained the reason for halted connection at my place. In his word, "due to India Australia match today, we had migrated entire bandwidth to FUP data pack buyers. Unfortunately, your access was chocked since bandwidth was not available besides FUP data pack users."
Now I could able to understand reason behind my internet connection disruption. For India Australia semi final cricket match, ACT broadband chocked network connectivity for a regular customer like me and priorities bandwidth release to those customers with FUP data pack to watch world cup match live. As a regular customer of ACT, connections were chocked just minute before match started and continue to remain stalled until 7:45 PM on 26 March 2015.
In simple word, my data and bandwidth was transferred to those customers who had a FUP data pack to watch India Australia match live. How fair is it? Shame on the ACT for cheating a regular customer. Therefore, beware of ACT Fiber net broadband and its cheating business practices. I cannot rely on a broadband company, which indulge in such unfair business practices by cheating regular customer. Also, I decided to raise a complaint to TRAI and the Telecom minister against ACT broadband cheating practices.
→ Frequent ACT Broadband Cable Cut
In Chennai, cable cut is the biggest issue with ACT broadband. In fact, cable cut issue becomes bad to worst during the month of Monsoon. Cyclone hits Chennai almost every year from November to January. Strange but the fact is Cyclone is the primary source for water in Chennai city.
Cyclone rain fills all the lakes and ponds in the city and nearby areas. That provides one portion of the water requirement by the city population. However, when Cyclone is intense, it creates enormous damage to necessary infrastructure. One of the first victims of Cyclone every year is the ACT and other broadband companies as they pass their wire through tree branches and building rooftop. Post-cyclone, network of such broadband companies would resume in three to four days since cable cut problem is in every area.
Therefore, for a constant broadband connection, it is advisable to get a broadband connection from the company like Airtel or BSNL or Jio. They have cable underground.

Current Storyline: Fictional Recap
The Collective
- "Following the Twelfth Great Jedi War and the Battle for Nancora, Darth Pravus's departure from the Brotherhood left more questions than answers hanging in the air. How would Grand Master Telaris Cantor's reign differ from Pravus' New Order, and how much would remain unchanged? Whatever the answers might be, the War taught us one harsh lesson: the Brotherhood is not as safe or secure as we once believed it. With only six clans remaining, The Collective have shown themselves to be a true threat. Even with their defeat, they do not seem deterred from their pursuit of purging the Brotherhood from the Galaxy. We will not win this fight alone or divided. As my duty as Master Archivist comes to and end, however, the rest of this story will fall to the next Headmaster. May the Force guide us forward into a stronger Brotherhood. "
- ―Farrin Xies, Headmaster Emeritus, 36 ABY
- A gathering of bureaucrats, nobles, merchants, and dignitaries is being hosted at the Dark Ascent on Arx.

- Back at the gathering, the various leadership representatives of the Clans are present: with the exception of Odan Urr.
- Telaris appears where Pravus should be, shocking many of the gathered to different degrees.
- Telaris is the new Grand Master, and he says that in order to reforge the Brotherhood in the face of the threat that is the Collective, the Brotherhood needs to be unified.
- Telaris states that the Council will continue to bolster and support the Clans territories.
- Jac Cotelin has been replaced as Justicar by Dacien Victae diPlagia.

|The Inquisitorius are the Grand Master's covert network of agents. They represent the Brotherhood's strength outside of the Iron Legion and Iron Fleet. While not all that are enrolled are aligned with the Grand Master's visions, many compete for favor and to rise in the rankings. The Society offers various awards and incentives and is headed by the Voice of the Brotherhood.
|The Six Clans
| The six Clans of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood all hold different motivations and personalities.
Arcona, Naga Sadow, Odan-Urr, Plagueis, Scholae Palatinae, and Taldryan.
A member of each respective unit is referred to in the following manner:
Former members of Clan Tarentum identify as Tarenti.
|Arx System
|The Arx System is located in the depths of Wild Space, far away from the core worlds and isolated from the galaxy at large. The planet Arx — or more commonly simply called "Arx" — now serves as the current seat of power for the Dark Brotherhood.
|Outer Rim Territories
|The Outer Rim Territories, also known as the Outer Rim or Outer Systems, was a sparsely populated region of the galaxy located outside the Mid Rim before Wild Space and the Unknown Regions. The largest region in the galaxy, it was home to diverse worlds and rugged, primitive frontier planets. It is here that the bulk of the Brotherhood's storyline evolves.
|The former home system and planet of the Dark Brotherhood. Destroyed by former Grand Master Muz Ashen in a destructive ritual to gain immortality.
|The Dark Council
|The Dark Council serves the Grand Master of the Brotherhood, and governs the various elements of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood.
| Dracaryis Sunstrider
Fist of the Brotherhood
Character Sheet
|Supreme Commander of the Iron Legion and Navy, head of the Grand Master's Royal Guard.
| Marick Tyris
Voice of the Brotherhood
Character Sheet
|After going undercover within the Collective ranks, Marick has returned to Arx to continue to lead and direct the Inquisitorius. The Master Assassin continues bring a heightened level of efficiency to the office but faces everyday challenges as both an administrator and bureaucrat, especially when dealing with his former home Clan who still have not forgotten what he did.
| Selika Roh
Herald of the Brotherhood
Character Sheet
|Head of diplomatic relationships between the Clans of the Brotherhood, and leader of the Shroud Syndicate.
| James Lucius Entar
Seneschal of the Brotherhood
Character Sheet
|The enigmatically eccentric, ever endearing Seneschal heads up the Brotherhood's Research and Development and also maintains sovereignty over cyber security thanks to his unique artificial intelligence, Construct dbb0t. James has a penchant for riddles and rarely involves himself in political matters, claiming to serve the Brotherhood and the Galaxy at large. He is most often left to his own devices out of both respect and fear.
| Daniel Stephens
Headmaster of the Brotherhood
Character Sheet
|The Master Archivist overseeing the Shadow Academy and all of its secrets.
| Evant Taelyan
Regent of the Brotherhood
Character Sheet
|Evant was responsible for forming the Inquisitorius and using it to execute Pravus' plans to purge the Brotherhood of all he deemed undesirable. This earned him the trust of the Grand Master, leading to his appointment as the Brotherhood's first Regent. His focus has been on the creation of Arx, the new imperial capital of the Brotherhood, and establishing a base of operations for commerce and construction. Using his vast network of resources, he procures the tools for Pravus' success such as credit accounts, kyber crystals, and other material acquisitions. Evant is brash, egotistical, and absolutely loyal to Pravus. It remains to be seen what working with Telaris will bring.
| Dacien Victae
Justicar of the Brotherhood
Character Sheet
|The new Justicar replacing Jac Cotelin.
| Howlader
Master at Arms
Character Sheet
|Howlader is rarely seen in his office, but his work always seems to get done. Overseeing the ceremony and record keeping of the Brotherhood's dossiers, Howlader's allegiance seems to be more to the position he holds than to any one leader or even his home unit.
| Morgan Sorenn
Deputy Grand Master of the Brotherhood
Character Sheet
|The new Deputy to Telaris, next in line to the throne.
| Telaris
Grand Master
|The Grand Master occupies the The Iron Throne, which is the seat of power for the Dark Brotherhood. They control the Dark Council, as well as the combined [[Iron Forces]
|Iron Forces
|The Iron Forces are divided into two divisions: The Iron Navy, and the Iron Legion.
| Damon Nix
Lord Marshal
|The enigmatic strategist behind the Iron Legion looks to ensure that Pravus' plans proceed as intended. A master of subterfuge and deception, the man who had previously lead the Dark Crusades by posing as the mysterious Darth Esoteric is one of the most dangerous Sith in the Brotherhood for his unpredictable methods and lethal cunning.
| Lena Rhell
Grand General
Character Sheet
|The leader of the Iron Navy, Rhell serves as the Fist's chief advisor on naval warfare and strategy. In a dual role as a Moff, she is also tasked with the operation and defense of the Arx System.
| Atra Ventus
Combat Master
Character Sheet
|Faithful to the Brotherhood as an entity unto itself, Atra has taken to his position as Combat Master with zeal. His influence has brought a renewed vigor towards combat instruction for veterans and newcomers alike while acting as a threat assessment tool for the Inquisitorius. Still, he is challenged with gauging his adherence to ideals against expected loyalty to those in power.
| Darth Pravus
Grand Master
Character Sheet
|Former Grand Master of the Brotherhood and leader of the "New Order". Manipulative, cunning, and utterly dedicated to his vision of a clean, pure, and efficient Brotherhood.

May 13, 2016
So it has been a rather historic week for Brasil. (As an outsider I have to admit I don't always get this country, but I do love it!) It was also an historic week for the life of Bridges, as our church leadership decided to move forward, and attempt to buy the church and surrounding property. When we surveyed the church a couple of Sundays ago nearly 90% of you indicated that you would enthusiastically pray, give, and support the church in this step of faith. Thank you. Now we must put actions to our words.
In the midst of our leadership meeting the elders had the privilege of gathering around someone from our church to anoint them, and pray for God's healing, as they face a difficult health issue. They were concerned about distracting us from the business of our meeting, and I told them that if property ever becomes more important than people, or budgets more important than the Body, we will be failing as a church. I hope that during this season where we will be looking for God to provide for our church in miraculous ways, that we will never lose sight of what is most important: Loving God and loving others.

On Tuesday nights I meet with several other men on the patio to talk about life and faith, which I find to be very helpful to my personal journey. (Guys feel free to join us on the church patio each week at 7:29!) This past week we were considering what the Bible says in James 2:17: "Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead." I guess it was the weight of the word "dead" that really challenged me. In other words if I say I believe in God, but there are no actions that demonstrate belief, my faith is non-existent, lifeless, extinct… Action is what brings our faith to life!
So a real simple barometer of how healthy our faith is, would be to ask ourselves: "What did I DO this week to show faith?" Jesus never simply talked or taught and left it at that. He was compelled to act! He never said: "I love you", and then failed to show it. Following Jesus Christ's example of love in action can be a very radical and risky endeavor, but only as our faith is coupled with action, can we escape death and know life. Between this Sunday and next Sunday, what will you do to act in faith?
Have a great week!

April 22, 2016
I've been encouraged this past week by a verse from God's Word that says: "With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes." (Psalm 60:12) "Valiantly", now there's a word that we don't hear or use much. It means "marked by, exhibiting, or carried out with courage or determination; to be brave or bold." The thought of being "valiant" conjures up images of fairy tales, but God is not interested in our being knights in shining armor, or heroines that save the day. He wants our lives to be marked by his presence and power, so that WITH HIM, we will have the courage and boldness to give and forgive, love the unlovable, stand for what is right, defend the weak, be generous, not grumble, rejoice always…and do all of the things that we cannot do without him.
As we move into our week, I want to encourage you to take time to know God more, for only as we are "with God", can we live and love valiantly.
Enjoy the journey,
Pr. Dave
February 26, 2016
We were challenged last week to put into our own words James 1:2-4. My paraphrase went like this: "Respond with genuine joy when facing whatever trials come along, because when our faith is tried, perseverance grows. And perseverance is critical to the process of growth that leads to maturity and wholeness".
On one hand, I'm convicted by this truth, knowing that often times I choose to respond with attitudes and emotions other than joy when I encounter hard times. (I'm trusting God is going to help me change that.) On the other hand I'm encouraged by this verse, knowing that even my problems have a purpose, and that God uses the trials that I face, to help me become more like him.
I hope that life is relatively "trial free" for you right now, but as we all know, none of us can escape the problems and pressures of this world. May God's peace, presence, and power sustain us in the midst of whatever trial we face, and may a response of joy help us grow to be all that God has created us to be.
Enjoy the Journey!

So I did something last week that I'd never done before- rowing in one of those skinny little boats on the lake. It's not as easy as it looks! There's so much coordination that is required- wrists, legs, back, hands and mind all working together. Or trying to work together. Just when I felt like I was getting the hang of it, one thing would get out of balance, and everything was messed up. On top of all that, you can't see in front of you!
It's easy to see the analogies to life. I can feel at times like I have my act together, everything kind of rockin along smoothly, and then something happens that disrupts the whole journey- all the while, not knowing what's in front of me. It was a fresh reminder of how I really need to entrust every facet of my life and journey to God. Whether it's my kids, my marriage, career, or health… I need to believe that God is taking me in a direction that is the very best for my life.
I'm hopeful of rowing again soon, and I believe that over time, and with some practice, there will become a more natural rhythm to it all. I'm finding that to be true of my journey with Christ as well.
Keep "rowing"!
Pr. Dave

Ms. Mariko Kawaguchi
Ms. Kawaguchi has advised countless corporations on how to achieve a sustainable society from the perspective of corporate social responsibilities (CSR) and socially responsible investments (SRI).
I would like to draw attention to anti-corruption, in addition to those other important issues of human rights, diversity, equal pay, complaint processing systems, and the protection of customer's privacy. There is no dedicated government ministry in Japan that covers anti-corruption matters, and other countries pay much more attention to the issue of anti-corruption than we do in Japan. The UN Global Compact even has an independent provision on the issue. With globalization advancing today anti-corruption has become an even more important issue, and companies need to have a clear policy on anti-corruption and response measures in place.

Grants Office, LLC
Friday, October 15, 2010
By Vince Siragusa
October 2010 (GO Know)
Wouldn't it be nice if you could run a project by the grant maker before spending hours on a grant proposal? Needless to say, you don't want to waste valuable time and resources positioning an application with limited funding potential. Inasmuch as the applicant's time can be better spent exploring other funding avenues, the grant maker doesn't want to be inundated with applications for projects they have no real interest in supporting. Understanding the role of the Letter of Intent or Letter of Interest (LOI) is one of true time savers in the world of foundation grant seeking. This document must be as well developed as the project for which funding is warranted.
The LOI should be a concise document—no longer than two pages—that gives the grant maker some valuable insight into who you are as an organization and the important role your organization plays in the community. The document should include what you're looking to do as a program, the measurable benefits that you anticipate will be derived from your project's implementation, and why the foundation's involvement is necessary for the project's success.
Based on the presentation and interpretation of this document, many grant makers will either solicit a full application or turn down the initial proposal in favor of other LOIs that are more clearly related a project to the foundation's areas of giving. Much is dependent on this short document. Accordingly, developing a LOI should not be done in haste nor with ambiguous details. This letter is your chance to make the grantor eager to read over your full application.
Successfully incorporating LOIs in this type of grant seeking doesn't always follow a numbers game. Sending the LOI to 50 foundations doesn't necessarily improve your chance of being invited to submit an application. Additionally, applicants should be strongly cautioned to avoid canned language or cookie cutter templates. Foundations often have individual areas of focus and will only entertain project applications that they deem a funding priority.
Fortunately, many foundations will offer insight and examples of previously successful proposals. Don't be afraid to do some background on the grant maker to provide an understanding of whom and what has been funded in the past. You may be pleasantly surprised to learn how similar projects have been funded and may even find that your organization already has a relationship with the foundation's board of trustees. In your search, also be sure to verify that the foundation is currently accepting LOIs and, if so, determine how they want that information submitted (electronic or hard copy).
The foundation-applicant relationship should be based on a good understanding of the need for reciprocity for all those involved. This relationship should be a marriage between the grantee's needs fitting in with the grantor's area of giving and vice versa. As is the case with any relationship, keeping the other party happy is part of the process. A quality Letter of Interest will help you get your foot in the door by articulating the value you intend to bring to that relationship.

- This meta-analysis suggests that early menopause (EM, age at menopause 45 or >50 years, without any distinct effect on the site of the fracture.
- No such association is observed between premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and fracture risk.
Why this matters
- EM and POI are associated with an increased risk for osteoporosis. However, their association with increased fracture risk has not been established and studies evaluating their association have yielded conflicting results.
Study design
- Meta-analysis of 18 studies involving 462,393 postmenopausal women and 12,130 fractures evaluated the association between age at menopause and fracture risk.
- Funding: None disclosed.
Key results
- Women with EM had a higher risk for fracture vs those of age at menopause >45 years (OR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.11-1.66; P<.002>
- No difference in fracture risk was observed between women with POI and those of age at menopause >40 years (OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 0.72-2.09; P=.436) or >45 years (OR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.22-1.29; P=.170).
- Separate analysis demonstrated no difference with respect to nonvertebral (OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 0.79-3.5; P=.177), vertebral (OR, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.87-1.37; P=.443) and hip fractures (OR, 1.18; 95% CI, 0.95-1.46; P=.120).
- Heterogeneity among included studies.

■ The bohemian one-time home of a certain bride-to-be is now reachable by a new flight route
NO, it can't be, I think, catching sight of a woman with dark, swishy hair and a cream cashmere coat clutching the arm of a tall redhead. I glance back as the couple stroll through Trinity Bellwoods Park and wonder, giddily, if I'm in the presence of royalty.
I'm not, of course. However, this Saturday's nuptials of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have brought a frisson of excitement to Toronto, the former home of the Suits star.
It may or may not be the reason British Airways has just launched a three-times-a-week route from Gatwick to the Canadian city, joining our two nations in matrimony. Once known as Hogtown thanks to its meatpacking heritage, Toronto has seen a renaissance in the past decade or so.
Home to 230 nationalities, it is one of the world's most multicultural cities and its clutch of eclectic neighbourhoods make for a bohemian vibe. Vogue has even named West Queen West the second coolest neighbourhood in the world, after Tokyo's Shimokitazawa.
Located five blocks north of Union Station, this two-kilometre stretch is still one of North America's coolest districts. From my base at Hotel X on the waterfront, which opened in March, it's an easy stroll to Bathurst Street, where I hop on the 501 Queen streetcar to Trinity Bellwoods Park.
A self-confessed fan of celebrity haunts, I book a guided tour of Toronto's coolest district led by Tim Benveniste, originally from Adelaide, Australia, who now calls Hogtown home (free but do tip, tourguys.ca).
'This is where Meghan would walk Guy and Bogart, her rescue dogs,' reveals Tim as we stroll through Trinity Bellwoods Park. He's dignified in the face of my glee as I explain to him that we Brits have gone a bit Markle mad in the run-up to the wedding.
Next up is Nadège (cakes from £3.45, nadege-patisserie.com), a chic French patisserie where Markle came for her macarons.
We then sweep down Queen Street West, following the rumble of the red-and-white streetcars, past hip barber shops, designer shoe emporiums and canine boutiques like Timmie Doggie Outfitters, and even odd shops that sell Spider-Man bongs or witches' poison.
We stop outside Terroni (mains from £10.30, terroni.com), an unassuming Italian restaurant where Markle would apparently go bandy over the peperoncini piccanti chilli sauce.
I'm reliably informed (by Tim and Hello! magazine) that Markle lived at 10 Yarmouth Road in the Annex, a trendy residential neighbourhood north of WQW.
Keen to get a glimpse of her old manor, one night I dine out at Kay Pacha (mains from £12.65, kaypacha.ca), a new Peruvian restaurant on St Clair Avenue West in the Annex. Although my Twitter feed informs me she's in London, I still keep my eyes peeled over pisco sours and bowls of limey yellowfin ceviche — you know, just in case.
Markle aside, Toronto is brimming with homegrown talent, including Canadian rapper Drake. In March, he opened his latest foodie venture, Pick 6ix (mains from £10.30, pick6ixto.com) a beautiful teal-and-gold sports bar-cum-sushi house on Yonge Street.
Author and poet Margaret Atwood, whose dystopian novel The Handmaid's Tale is now a popular TV drama, is another Torontonian. Largely filmed in the city, the drama returns for its second series on Channel 4 on Sunday, and features Ripley's Aquarium (£17.70, ripleyaquariums.com), City Hall and the Automotive Building in its fictional Republic of Gilead.
Apart from stalking celebrity haunts, there's plenty to do in the city. The brave can tiptoe around the outer deck of the tallest building in the western hemisphere, the 553m-high CN Tower, on the Edge Walk (£128, cntower.ca), a dizzying 116 storeys above ground.
A less vertiginous option is to take a ferry to Toronto Islands (£4.50 return, toronto.ca), the city's rural escape across the bay, to explore by bike or kayak.
Alternatively, you could get to know the city through its cocktails. Toronto's bar and dining scene is vast, so it's well worth booking a walking/drinking tour by Erin and Dick, the founders of Drink Toronto (£86, drinktoronto.ca), who lead us through Ossington Village and West Queen West.
'Ossington Avenue was once the meatpacking district and up until recently it was a sketchy kinda place,' says Erin as we enter Böehmer (cocktails £8, boehmer.ca), a decidedly un-sketchy, ultra-stylish bar and kitchen, for bang-on rosemary sours.
On my last night, another informant (OK, a waiter) tells me about a bar in the Kensington Market neighbourhood that Markle allegedly frequented. Cold Tea (cocktails £7.40), one of Toronto's many hidden speakeasies, is tucked down a dark, narrow alley and signalled only by a red light.
While there may be no Markle, this buzzing urban bar is just the job for a royal rendezvous.

Harry Wicks was born in Battersea on 16 August 1905 and started work there on the railways in 1919. In 1926, after suffering victimisation for his active participation in the General Strike, he was elected to the executive of the Young Communist League (YCL). In the following year he was selected, through the YCL, to study in Moscow at the International Lenin School for party activists. This course included visits to other parts of the Soviet Union as well.
After his return to Britain in 1930, he became involved with
the British Section of the Left Opposition (supporters of Leon Trotsky
against the Stalinist regime of the Soviet Union) and was consequently
expelled from the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) in 1932. In
November and December of that year, he was sent as the delegate of the
British Section to meet Trotsky in Copenhagen.
He continued to be involved with the Trotskyist movement for
the rest of his life, becoming, at various points, a member of the
Communist League, the Marxist League, the Labour Party (between 1934-9),
the Socialist Anti-War Front, the Independent Labour Party, and the
International Socialists. He died on 26 March 1989.
The Modern Records Centre at Warwick University has now put online short extracts from a
substantial series of recorded interviews given by Harry Wicks between 1976
and 1980 to Professor Logie Barrow, the editor of Wicks's autobiography,
published in 1992 by Socialist Platform Ltd as Keeping my head – the memoirs of a British Bolshevik .The full recordings, which were originally made on twenty-eight tape cassettes, are with Wicks's papers held at the Centre.
