LOWELL — The Lowell Spinners arrived at LeLacheur Park for the start of the final homestand of the season looking to pick up ground in the New York-Penn League pennant chase.
But in the opening game of a crucial three-game series against the Stedler Division-leading Tri-City ValleyCats, the Spinners continued to fade away in the race for a playoff berth.
Oscar Campos had two hits, including a home run, and drove in two runs as Tri-City blanked the Spinners, 7-0, before a crowd of 2,995 Wednesday night.
The Spinners (34-36) trail Tri-City (38-31) by five games in the Stedler Division standings with five games left to play. Lowell entered play Wednesday three games off the lead in the wild card playoff standings. However, there were five teams ahead of the Spinners in the wild card race.
"We go about our business the same way every single day," said Spinners manager Corey Wimberly. "That's the same thing I preach every single day. We can't really control what else happens. But we just go out there and have fun and play hard and live with the results."
Tri-City pitchers Brett Conine, Ernesto Jaquez and Austin Hansen combined on the three-hit shutout. Jaquez allowed one hit and one walk while notching three strikeouts in 3.1 innings en route to earning his first win of the summer.
"I think they did a really good job pitching tonight, hats off to them," said Wimberly. "They made pitches when they had to. We just didn't get any timely hits."
Lowell wasn't able to build off Tuesday's 7-0 win over the Connecticut Tigers. The Spinners have lost eight of their last nine games.
Tyler Esplin paced Lowell's offense with two hits, including a double. Korby Batesole had a single and walked.
"It's baseball," said Wimberly. "It's not that easy. It's really easy looking from the outside. But it's not as easy as we think. We expect those guys to go out and give their best effort, and I felt like tonight they did."
Lowell only trailed 2-0 heading to the eighth. Carlos Machado (single), Austin Dennis (sacrifice fly) and Campos (double) drove in one run each as Tri-City broke the game open with three runs in the eighth, increasing the ValleyCats' lead to 5-0. Tri-City scored two runs in the ninth to complete the scoring.
The ValleyCats took a 2-0 lead on an RBI single by Deury Carrasco in the fifth. Carrasco had three hits and scored two runs.
With one down in the second, Campos launched a 401-foot home run to left to give Tri-City a 1-0 lead. The homer was Campos' third of the season.
Lowell received a strong effort on the mound from starting pitcher Yorvin Pantoja (4-3). Pantoja gave up five hits and two runs while striking out four in five innings.
Game 2 of the series is scheduled for Thursday at 6:35 p.m.

Pokémon Trading Card Game: XY Primal Clash Launch
On the 3rd February I went to the Pokémon TCG Primal Clash launch at the Loading Bar in Dalston, along with Action Ash to check out the new decks on offer for release the following day.
The new booster packs and theme decks introduce more than 150 new cards and are called Earths Pulse, fighting and lightening Pokémon, and Ocean's Core, fire and water Pokémon. An interesting feature that they have introduced in this new expansion is 'Primal Reversion' shown in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. This is just like mega evolution except instead of the trainer using energy from people and Pokémon, they use energy from nature. The Pokémon also needs a particular orb to be able to use Primal Reversion, the only two Pokémon that can use this at the moment are Kyogre and Groudon and by using the blue orb for Kyogre and the red orb for Groudon they can evolve into Drizzle and Drought.
There are also twelve new Pokémon EX cards, two new Mega Evolution Pokémon, Ancient traits which are very similar to abilities, over thirty trainer cards, four full art rare Ultra cards, and two special energy cards.
We walked into a packed room full of Poke-players, Pokémon cake pops, Pokémon pizzas which received a warm welcome at the last event, and even a Pokémon cocktail that the team put together which was a great addition to the evening.
After having a few games and familiarising myself with the new decks I got the opportunity to have a chat with Samuel Mclewee, second placed winner in 2014's UK TCG Masters Tournament;
Hey Samuel, it's lovely meeting you. So when did you first start playing the Pokémon Trading Card Game?
Well, I started collected the cards at 4 years old, but I have been playing professionally since 2008
What inspired you to go pro and how did you find out about it?
Mainly my brothers, and one of my brothers played Pokémon as well. We're very competitive against one another. I found out about playing professionally by looking on the back of the booster packs and looking on the official website for tournaments. I attended tournaments in Crawley along with my brother and it all took off from there.
What is your favourite Pokémon card?
It has to be Charizard
What is your favourite Trainer card?
Scramble Switch
What would you suggest to be a good ratio of cards for a deck?
This doesn't apply to all games or decks but I generally go for the 13 rule. So 13 Energy, 13 Supporters, 13 Pokémon, and the rest Trainers
What does your training consist of?
To train I play against my brother a lot, and I also play in my local league which my brother and I set up in Shoreham-by-Sea
After the event I received a Pokémon goody bag consisting of; a tote bag, an Ocean's Core deck, two booster packs, a Tomy toy, a T-shirt, and a guide on the origin of the game.
The Loading Bar is a brilliant place to meet new people, play a huge variety of games, or just chill out and have a drink. I went to this event on 'Tabletop Tuesday' and the place was heaving so this would be a great opportunity to learn to play, or join in some great tabletop games and drink some very interesting game based cocktails.
I recommend these decks and boosters highly, they're full of great new cards, and there are some brilliant additions to building your current deck. You get online codes inside of booster packs and decks so that you can unlock cards to play in the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online at www.pokemon.co.uk/tcgo. The PokémonTCG Online is also now available for iPad via the Apple App Store.

Seeing Kabaka Mwanga as never before
- Written by Christine Nabasumba
Title: The Triangle.
Author: Nakisanze Segawa.
Publisher: Mativile Publishers.
Number of pages: 366
Year of publication: 2016
Genre: Historical fiction.
Price: Shs 30,000.
Reviewer: Christine Nabasumba
Available: Book point at Bugolobi Village mall and Aristoc Bookstore
Looking around for something unusual about Uganda, I came across The Triangle, a debut fiction novel by Ugandan writer, Nakisanze Segawa. The young author retells the history of a man who so much of what we know about, could actually be biased against him.
By exploring Kabaka Daniel Mwanga's personality, and the circumstances around him, we get to learn much about his office and its troubles. Through Kalinda, the first character, and in whose perspective you first meet the arrogant, have-it-all pipe-smoking Mwanga, you sense Mwanga's fear regarding the huge responsibility placed upon him as top authority of a powerful kingdom.
You also meet Nagawa; Mwanga's other wife, who senses disdain from Kalinda, but could not figure out why a mere page treats her like crap. Like any married woman at the time, she is desperate to not only give Mwanga an heir, but to also have a child of her own.
Her co-wife, Kaddulubaale, who is also Mwanga's first wife, already has a son with Mwanga, but the first son to the Kabaka (as Buganda's traditional goes) can't be heir, which gives Nagawa some hope.
However, the 1888-89 religious war leads to Mwanga's overthrow and exile in Magu and then Nkore. While in exile, Mwanga and his wives live like paupers. The refugee life of a powerless Mwanga pushes Nagawa into the arms of the Nkore prince Barigye.
The third major character is a white missionary called Reverend Clement. Just like all missionaries, he is a watchdog for the colonialists. In the beginning of the book, he does his Christian duties, encouraging Baganda, including Mwanga's pages, to become Christians. This doesn't go well, especially when some of Mwanga's servants start to disobey him and take on the Anglican priest as their superior leader.
The book also explores Mwanga's age. And it is obvious to the reader that Mwanga was after all not the, big-eyed, big-bearded giant of a king common history portrays him to be, but, rather, a naive young man, probably a teenager, who couldn't control his hormones.
The book explores Mwanga's complex sexuality, his hobbies and where his passion fell. It explores him as a father, a husband, and a king. It is a great book that reflects history perfectly, but remains entertaining.

In 90 degree weather, students often opt to dress lightly for the day. Whether choosing to wear a t-shirt or shorts, students' outfits are guided by the dress code, rules that are not one hundred percent benefiting students.
The official school website lists some prohibited articles of clothing, ranging from gang-related garment to distracting jewelry. These guidelines, however, divert most of their attention to female clothing.
Shoulder-revealing tops, along with tank tops with straps less than two inches wide, are not allowed. Although these protocols are meant to prohibit "clothing which disrupts the educational process," they are not often seen being enforced in extreme situations. Female students often receive warnings when their shorts may be too short or when their tank top straps are too thin, but male students do not seem to have as many dress codes pertaining to them. Male students can often be spotted wearing tank tops on campus, but they are not dress-coded as often as female students.
These guidelines are in place to ensure a safe and distraction-free environment, but for students, getting dress-coded can be embarrassing. Students are sometimes forced to change into loaner clothes because of coming off as inappropriate, but the majority of others experience this simply because they decided to adjust to the hot weather. With classes already being challenging enough for some students, being forced to take a trip to the office to change not only cuts into their learning time, but it also humiliates them.
Weather often influences what students wear and they should not be punished for wanting to feel comfortable in their school environment. Freshman Alondra Zubiate was forced to change into loaner clothes once, with many other times resulting in warnings. These incidents have led her and other students alike to become paranoid on a daily basis. When they walk by advisers and authority figures, these students feel the need to keep their jackets on no matter how hot the weather might be. This sense of paranoia should not exist, as rules should invoke a sense of safety, not fear.
Rules are set in place to refrain students from presenting themselves in an obscene or inappropriate manner, but many situations applicable to these codes are generally creating more distractions. Students usually have an understanding of the code, but when they do get dress-coded, wearing loaner clothes around the school and facing their peers might cause more chaos than compared to straps thinner than two inches. Either way, dress codes should not exist simply because a student's shoulders may distract others from a lesson.
Students should not be able to wear anything their hearts desire, but they should be able to feel comfortable in school. While still regulating these rules, students should not be worried about their clothing choices interfering with their education.

A call for lung cancer screening
Many Colorado residents may be unaware that lung cancer is the leading cancer killer of men and women in the U.S. Here in Colorado, it is estimated that in 2018 alone, 2,560 people will be diagnosed with lung cancer, according to a report by CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians. One of the reasons that lung cancer is so deadly is that it is often diagnosed in later stages, after the disease has already spread.
As a pulmonologist, I have seen firsthand the impact that this terrible disease has on families and residents of Colorado.
More needs to be done to raise awareness of lung cancer and the availability of lifesaving lung cancer screening. That's why I encourage residents who smoked or still smoke to visit SavedByTheScan.org to take an easy lung cancer screening eligibility quiz and learn if they may be at high risk and eligible for screening.

Problems with non-profits serving homeless
There is a problem with the non-profits that serve the homeless and elderly in Denver. Even though the unemployment rate is low and the economy is good, at least some of these organizations are struggling to meet their commitments to the poor. Arapahoe House closed and this summer the Salvation Army closed an adult rehab center.
The solution lies in the boards of directors of these organizations. There are professional business managers on all these boards. I implore these leaders on the boards of directors to act immediately.

Seeking "kinder and gentler"
The Trump administration is considering the denial of a path to legal status for immigrants whose family members may for even a short period of time receive public benefits such as health care treatment or emergency food supplements. Such persons would be labeled a "public charge," a mean-spirited, disparaging term often applied to immigrants and the poor by those seeking to deny them the dignity that all persons deserve.
In stark contrast, millions of Americans viewed the moving television coverage of the state funeral for former President George H. W. Bush, where numerous speakers spoke of our 41st president's courage, integrity, and dedicated service while reminding us that it was his desire that we become a "kinder and gentler nation."
It is inconceivable that the imposition of severe penalties upon the most vulnerable members of our society will move us closer to Bush's noble objective.

Hoping logic will prevail on border wall, shutdown
Good Grief! Did you watch the showdown on television in the Oval Office? Our esteemed Democratic leaders, who are supposed to be quick thinkers, missed a great opportunity to catch President Donald Trump in two of his many contradictions. If the Mexicans are going to pay for the wall as he has proclaimed many times, then why does he need $5 billion to build the wall? If the media is the enemy of the people, then why did he want so many media people in the Oval Office for the meeting? Oh well, maybe next time they meet, logic will prevail.

Using Toolkits to Provide Access for Students with IEPs and to Support Individual Reading Goals: Grades 1-8
Sunday, December 8 - Tuesday, December 10, 2019
Grade: 1-8
Featuring: Colleen Cruz, Jen DeSutter, Mandy Ehrlich, Hannah Kolbo, Natalie Louis, Alissa Reicherter with Janet Steinberg
Recently, a noted Universal Design for Learning expert implored teachers to focus on learning variability, not disability. While many agree with that notion, the challenge of embracing variability comes in the practical day-to-day know-how and time to meet the needs of each student. This institute was designed to both embrace variability and equip participants with the knowledge and resources to respond to the needs of each student as an individual and the class as a whole.
Participants will have an opportunity to look at their current students' IEPs and lay them alongside their curriculum. From there, presenters will explore the ways teachers decide when and if a student needs support. Participants will also study a variety of ways to not only create tools as scaffolds for students, but also to create strategies for removing those scaffolds when the time is right to ensure student independence, interdependence, and agency.
One of the great joys and challenges of teaching a diverse group of learners is that in order to reach every student, the teacher must figure out how to maximize student independence, while keeping in mind each child's individual learning needs as well as the demands of that grade's curriculum. That's why this year, we've designed a new mini institute about supporting students with IEPs that will especially focus on ways the components of balanced literacy can provide access for students with IEPs and help support students' individual goals.
During this institute, you will have the opportunity to dig deeper into the workshop model in order to take advantage of every component that can help you best facilitate student growth. You'll learn how whole-class read alouds and shared writing can help ensure all students have access to the grade-level curriculum. You'll see demonstrations of shared reading and interactive writing and get tips for how to use these methods in small groups that engage students with meaningful work and that help you target their individual goals. And, you'll hear the Project's latest thinking about lean, engaging phonics small groups that provide repeated practice with key phonics principles within the context of reading and writing workshops.
This work will be most successful when embedded in a cohesive curriculum, so you'll get opportunities to explore ways in which the Up the Ladder: Reading (fiction and nonfiction) and Up the Ladder: Writing units of study can be tailored to support the diversity of your students.
Looking across a whole child's needs, whether those needs are in the realm of language production, memory, processing, or emotional development, and then trying to balance those needs with the very real need to develop strong reading skills, can be daunting. This institute aims to leave you with armfuls of strategies, tools, plans and ideas, while tapping into technology as a resource to fuel your literacy work with students for the rest of the year and in the years to come.
This institute will take place at the Teachers College campus.
Teachers College, Columbia University

10th March 2016
On Tuesday they performed a dress rehearsal to a specially invited audience from the Parmoor Tea Club, Frieth Pre-School and our EYFS and KS1 pupils.
The children certainly sang their hearts out, remembered every line and worked as a team to ensure all the set changes happened smoothly. Well done Years 3 and 4!
Our Lower Key Stage 2 pupils were superstar performers this week! They treated us to three wonderful performances of a musical version of Dick Whittington.
The school received a lovely message following this performance:
"We must say how much we and the rest of tea club enjoyed Dick Whittington. It was all so good, the children above all with their singing and speech. Staff had obviously worked so hard backstage to produce what is definitely one of the very best performances we have ever seen at the school. As you know that is a lot of performances going back many years, very well done, everyone!"

Former White House employee who had served 11 President dies of Covid-19May 22, 2020 14:06
(Image source from: cnn.com)
Ex-White House employee who has worked under the reign of 11 US President died at the age of 91 because of Covid-19 complications.
Wilson Roosevelt Jerman, who is one of the longest serving employees of the White House, died at the age of 91 this month because of the complications. He has worked under various positions including that of a cleaner, doorman and even a butler from 1957 to 2012.
"I want the world to remember my grandfather as someone who is really authentic," said Jerman's granddaughter.
She further said how her grandfather had just one teaching that he has given everyone. He always said everyone to be themselves and that is what helps you to carry on your legacy. That is exactly what his family abide by.
Jerman had served 11 US presidents and started working in the White House as a cleaner under the reign of Dwight D Eisenhower. He was later promoted to the position of a butler under the administration of John F Kennedy when he impressed first lady, Jacqueline Kennedy with his work.
Another granddaughter, Shanta Taylor Gay, reported to CNN that her grandfather retired from his services in the White House in 1997 but later returned in 2003.
Even former US President George W Bush and first lady, Laura Bush has referred to Jerman as a dedicated man. They said that Jerman was the first person they saw after they woke up and the last person they say before their retired to bed at night.
Jerman left working in White House in the year of 2012 under President Barack Obama as maitre d'.
People who have met Jerman have time and time said that he was a very quiet and stern man. He has a very giving nature and never fussed or complained about anything at all. He had always lived a blessed life.
"Considering that we aren't able to grieve normally - physically together, [the photo's inclusion] is one way we are able to feel connected to his success and to feel connected to so much that he promoted around authenticity and building relationships, which equals building trust," said one of the granddaughters.

Hi guys,
This time, I planned to surprise my badi with a trip to Kalanggaman Island, Leyte. It recently circulated around my social media and I thought, maybe we should go. The island looks great, and I hope he will like it there. I didn't tell him where we'd go, though. He threw a bunch of guesses, and he actually got it right(but i just put on a poker face).
The boat ride going to the island from Palompon costs 3,000 php for the round trip. The boat can accommodate 10 people, so it would be better if you can find other people to join you and split the fee.
NOTE: This trip only accounts our adventure. It is not the best way to go there. For a guide, please click on the TL;DR button below.
Kalanggaman Island is found in Leyte. So the first step is to go there. We went there by getting on a Roble ship bound to Ormoc. Roble has several sections to choose from depending on your budget. The Economy class tickets are around 400 php. The double bunk beds for this section are found on the deck and in open air. The whole deck is shared by the passengers, so there's no privacy. The next section, the tourist class, is at 550 php. These are similar to the economy but on an airconditioned room. The cabin section is at almost 1,000 php per ticket and it is good for six people. The V.I.P. Room is for two and costs 2,000 per room. We bought tickets for tourist before hand. In the port, we paid for the terminal fee at 25 php each.
The whole duration for the trip going to Ormoc is 6 hours. We decided to just kick back and relax. The beds in the tourist section were a bit small for comfort, but the soft rumbling of the ship and the cold air lulled us to drowsiness. It was already 10 P.M. when the boat departed and most passengers on board were sleepy as well. After securing our stuff, we rested and closed our eyes. The ferry was scheduled to arrive in Ormoc at 4 A.M. When we arrived, we decided to stay for an hour since vans going to Palompon start appearing at 5 A.M.. We were on our way to the ship's canteen when we found a dear friend aboard.
On the other side of the Ormoc port is the terminal. There were already food stalls open outside where we ate breakfast and bought a canister of butane. You can can bring your portable stove with you to Kalanggaman island but remember, when boarding from ports, you're not allowed to bring the gas-filled canisters.
We then took a van going to Palompon. The fare is at 110 per person for the 1 hour 30 minute ride. The van will stop at the terminal which is right next to the public market. You can buy meat, fish, bread and drinks there. We bought 2 kilos of pork (one for Korean-ish style barbecue and the other to be grilled), some junk food and bread, coal, and drinks. The market is already bustling with people in the early morning.
After buying food, we took a pot-pot(pedicab) to the tourism office for 5 php each. But the funny thing is, the Tourism office was so close! You can just walk there for less than 5 minutes.
We entered and were greeted by the staff. They were friendly so you can go ahead and ask them your questions. The entrance fee for the island differs between a child, an adult, a senior, a local, and a foreigner. You can check our TL;DR for the rates. As for an overnight stay of 2 non-local adults, it costed us 225 per person.
There were people already around when we arrived. A group of 6 had the same plans; staying overnight and going home early in the morning. We were lucky!
We merged and split the 3,000 php pump boat fare for a round trip. Remember, you can't group up if you have different plans. If you are staying overnight, then you cant join other people that will go home on the same day. If it had only been the two of us, we could have paid 3,000 php, but between 8 people, we had a huge discount: 375 php each! Before leaving, the staff oriented us with what to do. They gave us 2 garbage bags: clear for biodegradable and black for non. She said that we need to bring those bags back when we get back to the island. They will look for it and collect it for proper disposal.
Going to the island from the main land takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours.
You'll gradually see the island grow in front of your eyes as you approach the island. Just moments before we arrived, we saw the gorgeous white sand beach with it's tail-like sand bar. The sky was so clear and blue, it was mesmerizing. It was worth the wait.
We got off with our stuff. The staff also gave our group 2 5-gallon containers filled with tap water. This water is not for drinking. It's for washing hands, plates and the like. It is not enough to use for bathing too, so we used it sparingly.
There is no potable water on the island. There is no electricity as well. There were bathrooms with seawater if you want to bathe and remove annoying sands and for your flushing needs. There were cottages for rent. An open cottage costs 500 php. They also rent out plastic recliner chairs for 50 php each and tables, and chairs. They have grilling areas at both sides of the island, a volleyball court, and a small store where you can buy sodas and alcoholic drinks(no ice sold).
At 9:50 A.M., there were already people around. I'm guessing that they stayed the previous night. We hurriedly looked for a perfect spot to set up our tent. The camp-able area is a few meters way from the seashore. There were a lot of potential camp sites that are under trees. The trees are scattered around the place. There are Talisay trees, tall coconuts and the short stumpy ones. They are your main source of shade. The weather was too nice to us. The sun was glaring above , so the trees' shades were very welcomed. We chose the spot between two coconut trees.
There was a security staff on the island and other staff assigned to help the guests.
After setting up the tent, we prepared the meat for lunch and dinner.
After everything was prepared, we took a powernap under the shade.
Lunch Time
From here on, the fun begins.
The night was clear...at first. The stars were amazingly visible. We began stargazing with the SkyView app for iOS. There were a lot of people who stayed on the island and camped with us.
We ate a late dinner because we were still full from lunch. At around 10 P.M., we saw that the sky was transforming as well. It darkened. We decided to call it a night and went to rest inside the tent. The next day we took a quick dip in the neverending sea. The sandbar was all ours.
We were picked up by the boat at 8:30 A.M. We found out that there was a Ferry from Palompon port going straight to Cebu. It was scheduled to depart at 9:00 A.M., but when we got there, they said that it would wait until 10 A.M. So we went to take a quick shower in the Tourism Office(for free). We hastened up, hoping we could still reach the ferry, but when we found the ticketing office, it started to move.
Our only option was to go back to Ormoc and take a SuperCat to Cebu. We went back to the terminal(which was in front of the Palompon Port) and took a van going back to Ormoc. When we got there, we bought tickets for 600 php each going back to Cebu.

OMG! Does Pasta Promote Weight Loss?
Researchers are saying that it might just...
Dieters can still shed pounds while eating pasta, according to new research.
The consumption of carbohydrates has been linked to the growing obesity crisis, but researchers at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto believe that pasta specifically doesn't deserve this negative reputation.
Most refined carbs, such as bread, pastries and cake, have a high glycemic index and are rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream, but pasta, in fact, has a low index, which means consumption causes smaller increases in blood sugar levels.
Staff at the hospital studied almost 2,500 individuals who ate pasta rather than other carb-heavy foods as part of a healthy low-glycemic index diet. Those involved in the clinical trials on average consumed 3.3 servings a week - with one serving amounting to half a cup of cooked pasta - and ended up losing half a kilogram of weight in 12 weeks.
"The study found that pasta didn't contribute to weight gain or increase in body fat," said lead author Dr. John Sievenpiper, a clinician scientist with the hospital's Clinical Nutrition and Risk Modification Centre. "In fact, analysis actually showed a small weight loss. So contrary to concerns, perhaps pasta can be part of a healthy diet such as a low GI diet.
"In weighing the evidence, we can now say with some confidence that pasta does not have an adverse effect on body weight outcomes when it is consumed as part of a healthy dietary pattern."
However, the researchers emphasised the fact that these results apply specifically to a low-glycemic diet, and, therefore, more studies would be required to determine whether pasta has a similar outcome when consumed as part of other healthy diets.


text: Feeling rather miserable about myself lately, and aside from actually rejoining WW as a paying member (not as Lifetime), I'm not quite sure how to motivate myself to work out and lose weight (the 6 or 7 pounds I've gained since graduation, plus about 10 more vanity pounds). It may well come to that (rejoining WW and paying and going to meetings and weighing in, etc.), but for now I've pledged my weight-loss on the Pound-for-Pound Challenge. The thing that bothers me is that there's absolutely no accountability for it. I don't do well with the honor system…. So, I'm leaving it up to you all to hold me accountable. If I've made no progress by next weekend, I'm rejoining WW. *sigh*

The fifth international "Fascination of Plants Day" will be launched by plant scientists across the world under the umbrella of the European Plant Science Organisation (EPSO).
The goal of this activity is to get as many people as possible around the world fascinated by plants and enthused about the importance of plant science for agriculture and sustainable production of nutritious food, as well as for horticulture, forestry and the production of plant-based non-food products such as paper, timber, chemicals, energy and pharmaceuticals. The role of plants in environmental conservation is also a key message.

During the summer term Plant Science researchers at the University of Bristol are hosting sixth form students from local schools for inspiring Masterclass days, funded by the Gatsby Plant Science Education Programme. These one-day events are themed around ongoing research in the Sparkes Laboratory concerning the movement of subcellular compartments within plant cells. Students have the opportunity to observe these movements on the microscopes, to learn how formulate and test hypotheses explaining the mechanisms of movement, and to engage in a debate on the theme of regulation of genetically modified crops. The workshops aim to inspire A level students to consider pursuing Plant Science courses or modules during their forthcoming University years.
Further Masterclasses are planned for the autumn term. Interested teachers or students from local schools should contact Dr Alice Baillie to enquire about booking a place.
Grab your goggles, slip on a lab coat and get stuck in to the Kew Science Festival at Wakehurst.

Have you ever wondered why clover seems to take over your lawn, despite your best efforts to grow grass in its place?"- come and find out what makes clover so clever! And come and test your senses in identifying traditional medicinal plants with a chance to win a prize!
Join us at the Natural History Museum to celebrate plants on Fascination of Plants day 2019. Chat with museum scientists and have a look at some sensational specimens to discover how amazing plants are and their importance in our planet.
Ever wondered what the plant looks like underneath the soil?
Plant roots are really important as they anchor the plant in the soil and take up water and nutrients. Unfortunately as the roots grow in the soil it can be really hard to view them. At the University of Nottingham we use X-ray vision to see roots in soil. This allows us to see the part of the plant normally hidden from view. Check out nottingham.ac.uk/hiddenhalf to see the root systems of many plants, from Christmas trees to asparagus.
To celebrate Fascination of Plants day we are going behind the scenes to show you how the images are created. Head over to our twitter page, @UoNHiddenHalf, on the 19th to get an insiders view of the facilities at Nottingham and how we create the images in the Hidden Half website.
The popular CBeebies programme 'Hey Duggee' has released an episode that is extremely appropriate for Fascination of Plants Day 🙂
Watch the video to learn with the squirrels how fantastic plants are as they travel up and down through a tall tree!
It requires a BBC login to view the video but this is free for UK-based users!

This collaborative venture between the School of Pharmacy and Life Sciences, Robert Gordon University (RGU), and Aberdeen City Council's, Duthie Park aims to engage children with science and educate them on the power of plants. Local primary school children (n=~60) will participate in sessions extracting DNA from Strawberries with scientists from RGU and discovering the Power of Plants on a Duthie Park nature trail led by the Park rangers.
Each educational session is designed to get pupils interested in plants and the importance of science in everyday life
Following from our first successful "Why are plants smelly?" event for British Science Week (10th March 2019) "Why are plants smelly 2" is our primary schools outreach event for the International Fascination of Plants Day. We invite primary schools' science groups to the University of Reading campus to join scientists from the School of Biological Sciences and the school of Archaeology, Geography and Environmental Sciences to ask: "Why is it that some plants smell so nice and sweet while others are really quite grossly stinky?!" There will be a range of activities both in the laboratory and outside on the University of Reading's prize-winning green campus. School groups will examine the different ways in which plants try to attract other organisms (e.g. pollinating bees and hoverflies) while doing their best to repel others such as insect herbivores intent on eating them! We guarantee you will leave looking at plants in a totally new way!
How essential are plants to you? Probably more than you ever realised! Meet some of the world's rarest plants and raid our food fridge to find something you'd like to plant and grow. Drop-in anytime between 12 and 4pm, try our challenges and have a go at our make-and-take activities. Find out more about science behind-the-scenes by chatting with our researchers.
Activities for the whole family brought to you by the University of Oxford Botanic Garden and Arboretum and Department of Plant Sciences.

In December the Government published a Discussion Paper canvassing options for the introduction of prohibitions on unfair contract terms in business-to-business dealings and unfair conduct.
If introduced, such prohibitions would represent one of the most significant changes to New Zealand's commercial law framework in recent memory, and could have far-reaching impacts on the way that businesses negotiate and contract with one another (see more here).
The deadline for submissions is looming, with those submissions due by 9am on 25 February 2019. Russell McVeagh has prepared a draft submission. If you would like to see a copy of that draft submission, or provide your input on that draft, please get in touch with Troy Pilkington or Joe Edwards.
