Run over 2m2f on the Newmarket Rowley Mile course the Cesarewitch Handicap is one of the most popular betting races of the season. Along with the Cambridgeshire Handicap, that is run 2-3 weeks earlier, the two races are generally known as the Autumn Double and both contests are always ultra-competitive.
We take a look at the best stats ahead of the 2018 renewal that will hopefully allow you to whittle down the big field – this year run on Saturday 13th October. Did you know 12 of the last 16 winners returned a double-figure price in the betting, while we've seen just three winning favourites since 1993?

Just 2 winning favourites since 1993
Run over 2m2f, the Cesarewitch is one of the main flat handicap betting races of the year and with 20+ runners each year then it's a race the bookies love to get stuck into. Twelve months ago though it was the punters that came out on top as the well-backed Withhold rewarded favourite backers and gave the champion jockey – Silvestre De Sousa – his third winning ride in the race since 2013!
With the race being first run in 1839, it's a contest steeped in history and that also means bundles of decent trends to have on your side – let's take a look at the last sixteen renewals and see what patterns standout.
When trying to whittle down the runners a good place to start is the AGE of your fancy. Horses aged 4 or older have won 15 of the last 16 runnings with Darley Sun (2009) being the only 3 year-old to win since 1999. Last year we saw another successful 4 year-old (Withhold), so that's three of the last five winners aged four. However, it's still worth noting that 10 of the last 16 winners were actually aged 5+. Therefore, in its current state the age stat really only rules out the 3 year-olds in my book.
Fitness heading into the race is another key thing to look for. Horses that come here having raced within the last 2 months are the ones to concentrate on – 13 of the last 16 tick this particular trend, while don't be too concerned if your main picks are further down the betting market. Since the year 2000, 14 of those 18 winners returned a double-figure price. We've even had two 50/1 winners, including Grumeti in 2015, and two 66/1 returns in the last six renewals!
If we stick with the betting side of the stats, then, considering the competitive nature of the race, we've actually seen three winning favourites win the race since 2006 – which is a 25% strike-rate, plus the market leaders also have an fair recent record of hitting the frame (top 4) – 8 of the last 16 (50%).
Being a handicap then weight carried is another trend to look at. A massive 13 of the last 16 winners carried 9-1 or less – including last year's winner – while coming here off the back of a promising recent run is other obvious plus – this is also supported with 11 of the last 16 winners running fourth or better in their most recent race.
Punters might also think that with the race being run over a trip of 2m2f then the draw isn't a big deal – wrong! Having a good starting position can set horses up nicely in the race and this is backed-up with 9 of the last 16 winners being drawn 12 or lower – suggesting that having a good early position and also saving ground and energy, is another big advantage over this gruelling distance. Also, note horses in stall 1 as we've seen three of the last 16 (19%) landing the gold medal.
Having raced at Ascot, Chester or Doncaster last time is another trend to look with 8 of the last 16 renewals having been won by horses in action at one of those three tracks, while 8 of the last 16 winners had previous experience at the Newmarket (Rowley Mile) track.
Finally, being run over one of the longer trips on the flat, then it's no real shock it's a race that often attracts trainers that are better known for their National Hunt horses. 7 of the last 16 winners supports this with Philip Hobbs and Nicky Henderson being the most successful jumping yards in recent years – Hobbs landed the prize in 2006 and 2014, while Henderson took the honours in 2003 and 2008. The Alan King stable is another to have on your radar, having won the race in 2015 with Grumeti at a stonking 50/1, while these races are also targeted by top Irish handler – Willie Mullins. He saddled the third in 2018 and will be a shock if he's not firing a few bullets at the prize again in 2019.
TQ VERDICT: Another big field to unravel here for the ultra-competitive Cesarewitch Handicap. A lot of key trends to note too, like 15 of the last 16 winners being aged 4 or older, while 13 of the last 16 had raced in the last 2 months and also carried 9st-1lb or less in weight. Leading jockey, Silvestre de Sousa is also a man to note as the pocket Brazilian has ridden three of the last five winners, including the last two. He rides the Neil Mulholland-trained VIS A VIS (e/w). This 4 year-old ticks a lot of the main trends too and gets in with just 8st 9lbs to carry. He's won his last two, including beating another of today's rivals – Just In Time – by an easy 2 ¾ lengths last time out at Kempton. He's been freshened up for this with 2 months off and despite being 8lbs higher here looks a progressive stayer that should have more to come. The Willie Mullins yard are also out in force with the likes of Stratum, Limini, Low Sun, Whiskey Sour and Uradel coming over and all four have big chances. Stratum was unlucky in-running in the Ebor last time out and would have surely be involved that day had he not been hampered a few furlongs out. He's a huge player, but poor value in a race like this. Limini is a big name in the jumping world but on the flat is also making her name for herself after winning 4 times from 9 starts and has also only been out of the frame once from her 9 runs on the level. She looks set to play a big part too. Stars Over The Sea was an easy winner of the trial to this race last month but is up 4lbs for that and might not be able to get an easy lead this time. So, the other three at bigger prices that interest me are PRECIOUS RAMOTSWE (e/w), UBER COOL (e/w) and HERE AND NOW (e/w). The first-named is sure to be popular with Gosden and Dettori teaming up again. She adds a bit of class to the race after running well in Group company the last three times and despite her big weight could be interesting now upped in trip. She's only had 8 career runs so will have more to come and even though the 2m2f trip is a big unknown, connections must feel she'll get it. The yard won the Ebor for the first time this season and will be looking for another first in this race. Uber Cool comes from the Jane Chapple-Hyam yard and heads here having won three of his last four. He found the Queen Alexandra Stakes at Ascot in June a bit too far (2m5f) but returned to win well at Yarmouth last month and with only 8st 11lbs gets in here with a nice racing weight. Finally, Here And Now was a fair fourth at Chester last time out but I think the key to him is the step back up in trip. He won well the time before at York over 2m after travelling really well through the race and I expect the long straight to suit him a lot better than the tight turns of Chester did last time out. Add in that the Ralph Beckett team are in good order at the moment then everything looks in place for a good run.

Hi Guys,
Due to some problems I encounter with TC. I want to roll the server back to a restore point just after the latest upgrade when things worked fine. on even before the upgrade if that upgrade was the problem.
My idea is to save backup the database and then link it up to the TC after I manage to get TC to work properly.
So I will save the backup on storage that will neot be affected by the roll back.
My question is. If I did this succesfully, will it be possible to link the database that I backed up again to the fixed TC instalation?
Could there be any issues for example with template and so forth that will make it a problem? I guess to be safe I could use the current state to come back to if anything fails. But it will be interesting to here others's input before I go and spend another 40 hours to do something that may not work.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello, in addition to the backup of the database, you should make a backup directory tc_data and all volumes

OK, folks.....LOVE this card BUT what a bugger to make! LOLOL! The gal that pinned the one that I originally saw didn't really give instructions on how to do this. A friend of mine pinned this first and told me to look at it. After a few tries, I finally figured out how to do the pleated doily in the background. I took one of my Martha Stewart punches and punched the upper and lower border strips from ivory cardstock. Then I cut 2 2" strips of ivory vellum and punched one edge of both strips. Am not sure how the other person did this, but I glued the strips together at one end. Then I scored the whole length every 1/2" with my scoreboard. Next step I folded the whole strip in pleats. I then took an embroidery needle and ran a long running stitch along the unpunched edge of the strip. The whole strip was gathered which pulled it into a circle. The difficult part was gluing that circle onto an ivory circle punched from cardstock. I used my Beacons 3-1 glue since it's a heavier glue and glued it down.To keep it in place, I took my ceramic mug that holds my cutting tools and put it on top of the glued-down circle. I left it there while I went out and cut our 2 acres. When I got back down to the craftroom, it was dry. I found the flower in my collection, had done it a while back using one of EK Success's flower punches. The tag is from one of the newer Spellbinder sets, can't recall the name. The ivory is mounted on a base card of Bazzill Sunflower gold cardstock. Whew, this is longest post I have done in a while! HA! Til Monday....

At every turn we are bombarded with news of almost every crisis happening in every corner of our globe. Like no other time in history, we live with the constant awareness of what's happening around the world as carnage of every kind is paraded in front of our eyes. With this newly acquired awareness comes a foreboding sense of urgency to do something about it. We want to make a difference, but how?
I do not profess hope in governments to get things right. They are hopeless and incapable of seeking the kingdom of God or following the teachings of Jesus. Nations will not get this right. The church, however, must get this right!
We feel the weight of the world like never before. We want to express solidarity with victims around the world, and social media makes it possible for us to feel like we are making a difference. We know, however, that words and sympathy fall short of making any real difference. I think the courageous way of Christ moves us beyond our carefully crafted words and expressions of sympathy to the most practical expression of God's love at work within us: to love our neighbor.
So what can we do?
1. Pray. Prayer affirms our trust in God, frees us from the captivity of our fears, and welcomes God's work within us and through us. Through prayer we are waging a "fight" that counters the violence of our age (2 Corinthians 10:3-5) and preserves us from the shallow deceptions of retribution and revenge. It is not a wasted or useless act but a demonstration of our faith in God over the dominating values of our world.
2. Give. What difference can I make? On my own, not much, but together with all of God's people, we can feed the hungry, shelter the refugee, and facilitate the reconciliation of enemies. If you are looking for a reputable agency to entrust a financial gift, I recommend giving through Brethren Disaster Ministries to the Emergency Disaster Fund (www.brethren.org/edf). Through trusted partnerships, BDM is caring for victims of violence throughout the Middle East, Africa, and in Europe.
3. Love your neighbor. Perhaps a love for the refugees of the world can be best demonstrated by welcoming and adopting refugee families who find themselves living among us here. World Relief is a leading Christian agency serving refugee and asylum-seekers in the Kent area. They continuously need volunteers to serve as the face of hospitality and friendship for these marginalized people. You can learn more at www.worldrelief.org/refugee-resettlement.
4. Seek peace & pursue it. To abhor hatred and violence around the world begins by despising it in our own hearts. Justice and peace begin at home. We must cultivate the kingdom of God within us and trust God so that our lives are not dominated by hatred, bitterness, or strife. The worst of evil's atrocities begin with the deadly spark of hatred in the human heart. Let's guard our hearts and minds in Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
I am not an expert in foreign policy and will not spend much breath pretending to be. Like many believers, I simply want to know Jesus Christ and live faithfully as his. He leads us to a faithful response.

The highest-rank governance body of the company adapts to the new shareholder structure
The Abertis' Board of Directors has approved today a series of changes after the successful tender offer on the company executed by German group Hochtief.
The new Board composition adapts to the new shareholder structure of Abertis with the incorporation of ten new proprietary directors representing Hochtief, owner of a 78.79%-stake of Abertis, and the exit of the five proprietary directors by Criteria Caixa, including Salvador Alemany, president of Abertis until today, who has been replaced by Marcelino Fernández Verdes, proprietary director proposed by Hochtief.
Other five independent directors have resigned too. Thus, three independent directors remain in the Board.
New Abertis' Board of Directors
After the reorganization announced today, the Abertis' Board of Directors is composed of:
-10 proprietary directors by Hochtief, owner of a 78.79% of Abertis:
-3 independent directors:
-1 executive director: José Aljaro, confirmed in his position.
Marcelino Fernández Verdes, new president of Abertis
Marcelino Fernández Verdes (Oviedo, 1955) is a Civil Engineer by the Escuela Superior de ICCP of Barcelona (Barcelona School of Engineering).

He is also president of the Executive Committee of Hochtief AG and executive president of Australian group CIMIC.
Salvador Alemany, first executive in the creation of Abertis and promoter of 20 years of growth
Salvador Alemany (Barcelona, 1944), economist and chartered accountant, closes today a long period in which the Abertis Group has transformed itself from a Spanish company with hardly any international presence into the world leader in the infrastructures industry, managing more than 8,600 kilometres of toll roads in 15 countries of Europe, America and Asia.
The outgoing president of Abertis started his career in the toll road sector in 1998 when he was appointed Acesa's CEO. Under his management, Acesa lead the merger with the concessionaire Áurea and the tender offer on Iberpistas, which resulted in the creation of Abertis Infraestructuras. The company made its début in the Spanish stock market in June 2003.
In his 20 years at the top of the company, Salvador Alemany has boosted dialogue and cooperation with the Administrations to find road infrastructures financing solutions through PPP's. He has also done an intense work for the recognition of the infrastructures' value for society, as they promote economic growth, employment, cohesion of territories and the union of citizens.
The Abertis' Board of Directors has thanked him for his great dedication, the services rendered and the diligence in the performance of his position, wishing him all success in his new professional stage.
Salvador Alemany is, at present, President of car-parks company Saba, Trustee of La Caixa Banking Foundation, Trustee of the Institut Guttmann, and President of the Board of Trustees of the Gran Teatre del Liceu de Barcelona.

How to dispose of placentas that may carry hepatitis and HIV; how to be able to clean sheets and cloth when they may only have rainwater cachement; how to filter the water they have so it is drinkable; how to be able to have mattresses that can be cleaned and how to clean with something like bleach that will kill all viruses and bacteria, but perhaps is not so toxic to breathe and be in contact with for those who use regularly.
Here one must really be extremely aware of what you choose to use and throwaway! An interesting point, is that in Rwanda, they have outlawed plastic in the whole country. When you arrive, they confiscate any plastic bags you have with you at the airport. Every Saturday is designated a cleanning day. Everyone must clean their houses and their yards. "It is a very clean country" said the stewardess when I asked for more clarification about the plastic bag announcement before we landed there (en route to Uganda).
Anyway.. If anyone knows of ways that other clinics do gentle births with limited water, few disposables, and little laundry, please let me know! IT seems that everything we do here is by our own ingenuity, as is true of the way all people live here. but I'm sure others have already figured this out! Somewhere!
A Little Girl
I don't have a lot of time to write on this computer, and internet connection can fade out at any moment, like the electricity and the water.
Today another bit of reality struck. A young girl, perhaps 12 or so, came in with one of the volunteers, Christine, from the clinic to visit Brigitte, another German volunteer who is now laid up with potential malaria or typhoid. Brigitte was too ill to visit, and so "D", the bright eyed wide-smiled beautiful girl sat at our table as Marva the midwife and I ate lunch. She had a bright scarf with silver sequences wrapping her head, she lit up our hearts with her smile. Are you going to school, I asked? Today is the first day back to school after a 3 month break for all those who do go to school. No, she said, she is going home today…. She continued, "but I am not studying now. My mother, who paid for my school is dead." "Oh, how very sad, " I said. She nodded and swallowed. Apparently, she came here with her sick mother 3 months ago in November. Her mother died and now she is being sent home.
" Who will you stay with? " I asked. "My stepmother." Her face became grim. "But she abuses me," she said. She tried to hold back tears, touching her eyes. "It must be scary then to go back there. " She nodded. I didn't know what else to say. Of course, I wanted to grab her and not let her go back there, conscripted now to a life of likely abusive servitude to the step mother. I ran through numerous scenarios.. adoption, finding a home, taking her away, talking to Dina whose organization is helping 5 poor go to school. But there are 1000's, 10,000's of children also in this predicament.
"Do you read?" Marva asked her. "Yes." "What books do you like?" "I like science," she replied. " My favorite book was a story about the earth." But she will not likely ever be able to continue her interest. Instead, she will do chores for her stepmother, and be bought by some man, who will cause her to have one child after another, to prove his status and wealth. It is an ancient traditional belief, said the Ugandan midwife. From long ago, it was a symbol of wealth to have multitudes of children, and multiple wives who bear them and care for them. The wife herself is not important… only in that she bears plenty of children. Birth control can only be done in secret, if she has the means and access, but nothing permanent without a man's consent.
I tried to come up in moments with any potential possible scenario of rescuing "D" from her certain fate of servitude and abuse to her step mother. I thought of adoption, of just grabbing her and having her stay here, or contacting Dina whose organization is paying for 5 poor children to go to school. She was too cute, too bright, too open, to end up in this situation. But there are 1000's, no 10,0000's of children all in the same predicament. Their fate is sealed and there is really nothing I can do. Only to be kind. In that moment though, I did not know what else to say. I was trapped by my own emotional sinkhole.
"D" left, and I sat and cried over my lunch remains as I watched her walk away into the life that she knew, too, would be terrible.
The issues is too prevailing, too big for me to be able to really do anything at all, but just share in the kindness that also prevails amongst most of the people I am meeting.

It has to be awesome being an artist. All you have to do to get girls naked is tell them that it's in the name of art. We all learned that lesson early when Leonardo DiCaprio pulled the move on Rose in Titanic, so what are we all doing here sitting at a desks? Photographer Ben Watts took the hint and ran rode with it in his latest project for treats! magazine.
For his "Breaking Away" editorial, Ben used some colorful Big Shot Bikes and a few smokin' hot naked girls to create a real life wet dream. These girls have no reservations about liberally using a bike pump, stroking handlebars, and doing a conga line.

Quairós - Vela (CD inc. shipping)
Quairós - Vela (CD inc. shipping)
"The band's playing sounds fine, tasty and functional. Ideas are being developed in an interesting way, and the titles have been shaped like songs, which is not always given in the free improvisation scene." – Toni Honkala, Riffi
Markus Pesonen Guitar
Tom Arthurs Trumpet
Miles Perkin Contrabass
Janne Tuomi Drums and Percussion
The quartet propose something of the finest of what is rapidly emerging as a new form of real-time composed/improvised music-making – unlimited by concept or dogma, and proposing beauty and sensuality as opposed to the mechanical coldness and harsh juxtapositions of earlier forms. These are four musicians listening and reacting at the highest level - reveling in both the range of influences available to them and also in the depth with which these are explored. As well as being unapologetic jazz musicians, all are experienced composers, and they bring these experiences in form and detail to their extemporisations. Roots are clear – traces of reductionism, spectralism, European jazz history, Americana and electro-acoustic music remain – but in a way entirely personal to these four individuals, and their combination in this group.
QUAIRÓS is a band with a fresh and commanding sound, and a group who transmit a quiet intensity and warm humanity with a clarity and joy otherwise rare in today's improvised music.

window in the heartA whole lot of what I have been doing in this space is trying to trace the lines of this disease: "This is where cancer is, and this is where it is not." A useful practice, over this long last two years.
That need, I think, is wrung out of me. The lines, at any rate, are fading.
This time two years ago, Thomas had been sick and then sicker and sicker. We had thought his ear tubes would make a dramatic change, but a week after the surgery he stopped using a bottle and would only nurse, weakly, mostly for comfort.
I couldn't put words on it then, but I began to have the sense of heavy, electric dread that precedes a tornado. I remember laying him down for a nap, early, and actually stepping outside to check the sky. He was diagnosed a couple of days later.
We have come back to that season. He is losing his balance. He hurts. There are a dozen small things that have already slipped by without us counting them. He is holding his head to the side.
A couple of weeks ago, Thomas and I watched Paul Simon get his Library of Congress award on TV. We were both transfixed by Allison Krauss and Jerry Douglass's version of my old favorite, "Graceland." We both danced on our tiptoes, and I have been singing bits of the lyrics this week, when I could sing:
"There is a girl in New York City
Who calls herself the human trampoline
And sometimes when I'm falling, flying
Or tumbling in turmoil I say
Oh, so this is what she means
She means were bouncing into graceland
And I see losing love
Is like a window in your heart
Everybody sees you're blown apart
Everybody sees the wind blow . . ."

Chris Smither - The Call Me Lucky tour
Joining Chris will be The Suitcase Junket (Matt Lorenz)
Chris Smither returns to Ireland to support his newest record, Call Me Lucky.Recorded at the gorgeous Blue Rock Studio in the Texas foothills, Call Me Lucky features Smither's first set of new originals in six years.
Released in March 2018, Call Me Lucky is packed with Smither trademark songs that offer commentary on the human condition with a wink of an eye and pulls from deep in the soul and a couple of surprise covers that remind us of Chris' deftness as a song interpreter as he makes the songs his own.
Joining Chris will be The Suitcase Junket (Matt Lorenz) who also played on Call Me Lucky. A young American songwriter and musician, The Suitcase Junket will play a short opener set of his music that is rooted in the salvaged sounds of mountain ballads, blues manifestos, American juke joints and back porches; it's that and his road-worn voice rising over the grind of a tube-amped dumpster guitar, and the wild double pitches of throat singing that drew Chris to Matt's music.
The Call Me Lucky tour will definitely satisfy Chris Smither fans as Chris performs songs from the new record as well as digging deep into his back catalogue of favourites. As fans from around the world continue to fill concert halls, music clubs, and festivals,
Reviewers including those from the Associated Press, NPR, Mojo, and The New York Times agree that Smither remains a significant songwriter and an electrifying guitarist - an American original - as he draws deeply from folk and blues, modern poets and philosophers.

Branded T Ranch Wedding {Devin & Lauren}
We've said this time and time again: destination weddings are one of our favorite things to capture!!! It's a completely different element for us, different lighting, landscape is not what we're used to seeing everyday in Colorado and we get to hang out with the families for at least a day or two (sometimes MORE) before the festivities really begin. Destination weddings will always have such a special place in our hearts.
Amazingly, we met this incredible couple in Colorado. As Lauren passed our booth at the Rocky Mountain Bridal Show, she stopped, came back and said, "Will you go to Texas?" HECK YES we'll go to Texas! Why not, warmth, big bugs, rattlesnakes, wasps the size of humming birds (truly)...OF COURSE WE'LL GO!
After a Rocky Mountain winter engagement session, we couldn't wait to enjoy a little warmth on their wedding day and boy was it warm. Humidity in Texas during the summer is no joke I tell ya! I think we were soaked before we started photographing their wedding. However, we could run like champs thanks to that 7k foot elevation adjustment! LOL
Do we even talk about their venue.... This place was INCREDIBLE!!! Gorgeous beams, rich woods, stone work, incredible landscaping and ZEBRAS all over the place!!!! Yes, exotic animals everywhere you looked, truly a photographers dream!!!!
To Devin & Lauren, thank you, thank you, thank you for trusting us to capture your destination wedding. The joy you bring one another has been a blessing to capture! Enjoy every moment and pray that this day is just the beginning of a joy filled life! We hope each photo brings you back to the moment, smell and love from your day!

Talking to a professional
I think I mentioned previously on this blog that I went to see a grief counsellor about 3 or 4 months after Liane's death. It didn't work out. In hindsight, I hadn't processed half enough of what I was feeling at the time. I was doing it to tick a box on the road to trying to make sense of it all and in my newfound battle against grief. I left her room having got very little out of the experience but determined to find someone else at some stage down the line.
I have recently found that professional to talk to and it is equal parts upsetting, relieving, fascinating and needed. I come out of a session feeling lighter. I feel like our conversations are unpredictable and fluid. I feel like I've bonded with the counsellor and that we have a lot of work to do together in the future. Maybe most importantly I feel like she is somebody who knows about these types of journeys and can be a knowledgable and welcome crutch for me.
Therapy is new to me. I'm lucky that way. I am grateful I have found a therapist I trust and feel comfortable with - I know many aren't as lucky. What I didn't expect from it is how much it can give me, how much I can get from it. I really hope it stays this way.

The Turnbull Government should show leadership and help the NT Government replace the notorious Don Dale youth prison/
The Northern Territory Government today announced it will close Don Dale – the youth prison renowned for the systemic abuse and mistreatment of Territory children.
Shahleena Musk, a Senior Lawyer at the Human Rights Law Centre, said the closure couldn't come soon enough and urged the Turnbull Government to help fund the creation of safe, home-like facilities built for children.
"We're talking about kids at the crossroads. We need to do all we can to help them get their lives back on track. It is well and truly time we closed the dark chapter of Don Dale. But to do this we need both the NT and Turnbull Governments to do everything they can to ensure no child is ever consigned to such a brutal environment again," said Ms Musk.
A Royal Commission into the Protection and Detention of Children in the Northern Territory was held last year following the ABC's Four Corners revelations of children at the Don Dale youth prison being hooded and tied to chairs, stripped naked and tear-gassed.
In its response last week, the Turnbull Government failed to provide the national leadership and funding required to fix all states and territories broken youth justice systems.
"Rather than passing the buck, Prime Minister Turnbull should support the Northern Territory to do what actually works to help rebuild children's lives. We're talking about small, home like facilities close to families and communities - facilities that help children develop and thrive. The Turnbull Government needs to put its money where its mouth is," said Ms Musk.
The recommendations of the Royal Commission into the Detention and Protection of Children are relevant to all states and territories because they detail how to prevent abuses and modernise youth justice systems so that they serve a positive purpose by helping children to succeed in life.
"We owe it to the kids that were abused to get this right and make sure history is not repeated. All states and territories should be following the NT's lead by closing their super-max youth jails and replace them with small age-appropriate facilities. The only thing more horrifying than the abuses we saw in Don Dale would be a failure by governments across Australia to do everything they could to ensure these atrocities never happened again," said Ms Musk.

Abstract Background. Cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYAs; 15-29 years old) is relatively rare but its incidence is increasing worldwide. To define the extent and nature of the AYA patients, this population-based study was performed to explore trends in cancer incidence, survival and risk of second primary cancers in AYAs. Material and methods. Data from all AYAs diagnosed with cancer between 1989 and 2009 were obtained from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. Age-standardized incidence rates with estimated annual percentage of change (EAPC) and five-year relative survival rates were calculated. Relative survival was used as a good approximation of cause-specific survival. All analyses were stratified by gender, five-year age group and calendar period. In addition, Standardized Incidence Ratios were determined to evaluate the risk of second primary cancers. Results. 23 161 AYAs were diagnosed with cancer between 1989 and 2009. Since 1989 the cancer incidence has increased significantly from 28 to 43 per 100 000 person years in males (EAPC: 1.9) and from 30 to 40 per 100 000 person years in females (EAPC: 1.4). The most frequently diagnosed cancers in male AYAs included testicular cancer, melanoma and Hodgkin's disease, whereas in females melanoma, breast cancer and Hodgkin's disease were the most frequently occurring cancers. Five-year relative survival rates were 80% and 82% for males and females, respectively. Over time, the five-year relative survival increased from 74% to 86% and from 79% to 86% in males and females, respectively. The risk of developing a second primary cancer was increased three to six times in males and two to five times in females, depending on rules for counting second primary cancers. Conclusions. Although the overall survival has improved over time, the progress made in AYAs for specific cancers is still less compared to improvements made in children and adults. This and the increasing incidence and high risk of second primary cancers warrants further research.

The mechanic has informed you that the cost to replace your gearbox is more than the value of your old car. In addition, it needs a new timing belt, brakes, and new tyres. At this point, it's just not worth putting more money into it, and it's time to recycle.
Every year in Britain approximately two million old cars and vans are scrapped. Recycling a vehicle includes many steps that ensure that it is destroyed properly and in an environmentally friendly way. This includes disassembling and using parts for other purposes. This not only helps the environment but can provide you with a small profit.
So how does one go about recycling an old car that is way past its prime? And what happens to it? Let's have a look.

Former RHOBH star Brandi Glanville has never been shy when it comes to talking about her ex-husband, Eddie Cibrian and his new wife LeeAnn Rimes.
Well, LeAnn's ex-husband Dean Sheremet is speaking out about how he handled his divorce and it might give us some insight as to why Eddie, LeAnn and Brandi are constantly feuding.
"I mean, Brandi can do whatever Brandi wants to do. Eight years ago, I got out of L.A. for that reason. I didn't want to be part of that triangle. It would've been a square if I was involved. I didn't want to be involved in the mudslinging and the bullsh*t," he said.
"Thankfully, we didn't have, as much as I wanted to have kids, LeAnn and I didn't have any children. So I didn't have to see her, and I didn't have to be in her world, kind of a world of now LeAnn trying to be the mom to the kids and Brandi being threatened," Dean told Bravo's Personal Space. "There's always gonna be some kind of bullsh*t that gets stirred up there, and for me, I was like, 'You know what, I'm going to New York. You guys can have L.A. and all the craziness that comes with it, and I'm gonna start something fresh.' And that's why I had to get out of, I stopped writing songs, I stopped doing the kind of whole music world, just because I needed my own identity. So I was fortunate that I split from them emotionally and geographically."
But as you know, Brandi and Eddie have two boys, Mason, 14, and Jake, 10.
"Everyone thinks [Brandi is] such a bitch, and she really is just one of the most sensitive souls. And she really takes things to heart. People think she just lashes out, but I think that they don't realize that she has such a sweet and innocent soul, which sounds silly because most people don't see her that way," Sheremet explained. "But the way that I know her, I think it's more of like she's the mama bear where if she feels threatened, she's gonna lash out. If she feels like someone's coming up against someone she loves or hurting someone or hurting herself where she's very sensitive and vulnerable, she will lash out at them. So that's just Brandi being Brandi. I don't think that she'll ever change, and I don't think the world wants her to change."
"You have so many people that walk around on eggshells. She's not always tactful of her timing of things, but what are you gonna do?" he shared. "I wouldn't prefer to have anyone else in my corner if this sh*t was going down, so she's a good girl."

On enjoying her favorite foods between seasons:
It gets to be euphoric, and then it's like food poisoning, you feel like you'll never eat again, and then before you know it you're pigging out with the feed bag strapped to your face. And I'm a foodie, and love food, and I travel the world for food, so I get heavy again between the show.

Sen. Ted Cruz risked his political career Wednesday night when he pointedly decided against endorsing Donald Trump from the stage of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland.
It was a stunning thing to witness. The man who finished second to Trump in the primary race, the man everyone expected to, eventually, fall in line behind Trump, the party's nominee, steadfastly refusing to do so — with the biggest possible spotlight shining on him.
Make no mistake: Cruz knew exactly what he was doing. And he almost certainly knew how much controversy it would cause.
At the heart of Cruz's gamble is, of course, the idea that Trump will lose the general election to Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president. But that's not all of it. Cruz is also banking on the idea that Trump will lose in such a way that it will cause a post-election reckoning by the Republican Party who supported him. That the GOP will wake from the fever dream of this election and ask itself, "What the heck were we thinking?" That, post-election, the thinness of Trump's affiliation with the Republican Party and loose commitment to conservative principles will be exposed in a way it simply has not been in the campaign to date.
[Trump Vs. Hillary: Where do they stand on the issues?]
And then — and this is very, very important to Cruz's massive gamble — that the politicians who stood with Trump will be tainted by their association with Trump heading into 2020. That includes House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.), Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R)— all former Trump rivals who, eventually and in their own ways, found a way to get behind the real estate mogul.
They will be on one side of the party. Cruz, he hopes, will be on the other, the one principled man left in the GOP. The man who stood up to the bully in the bully's back yard. "This is about principles and ideals," Cruz told the Texas delegation Thursday morning. "This is about standing for what we believe in."
Principle vs. politics. Standing firm vs. giving in.
[Keep up with live updates from the Republican National Convention]
That is how Cruz has to hope people come to view what he did Wednesday night. The alternative — a selfish act by a man who has always cared more about himself than his party — is certain doom for Cruz's political future on the national stage.
When you take a big risk, there are only two options: Big reward or big, fat failure. The immediate after-action analysis suggests that failure is the more likely result for Cruz, as he has been pilloried from almost every side of the GOP for his non-endorsement.
But Cruz did not make this play for the near-term. He knew that his fate depends on what happens Nov. 8 and how the outcome of that day is interpreted by the Republican Party.
Cruz is walking across a tightrope without a net, with someone — actually lots of people — shaking the wire as he walks. Even if you think, or want, him to fall, you sort of have to admire that he's willing to step out on the wire at all.

Wealth management advisors and financial planners who offer portfolio management services have a lot to be excited about these days. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) has grown more than 150% over its lowest point in 2009 and has returned tremendous value to those who have stuck it out for the long haul. The Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 closed a record high on news that factory growth is fueling the ongoing economic recovery. The DJIA closed recently over 16,500 points, while the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) reported that 69% of the companies whose shares trade on the NYSE closed higher than previously.
The needs of Baby Boomers in meeting their retirement goals as well as the required planning that members of Generation X must engage in to care for older parents while providing for their own families necessitates the need for portfolio management services.
Continued Growth Fuels Need for Portfolio Management Services
The financial markets continue to add value to investor portfolios. This increase in growth and value has increased the demand for wealth management advisors and financial planning professionals who engage in portfolio management services for their clients. CNBC recently reported that wealth management firms in the U.S. have grown to just over 28,500. These firms are comprised of 2 to 8 wealth management advisors managing $25 to $50 million in assets under management.
Why is there such a demand for wealth management advisors? For one, baby boomers (born 1946-1964) are expected to inherit $8.4 trillion, with a little more than a quarter of that amount ($2.4 trillion) already received. According to the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College, the median amount of wealth per household that will be inherited will be around $335,000 and the average more than $1.5 million. With reports that many boomers face the prospect of working longer, well past the traditional retirement age of 65, newfound wealth will require careful and thoughtful portfolio management services.
Outlook for Continued Growth
Increases in personal income and real disposable income as recently reported by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis suggest a continue demand for wealth management advisors. Five years of recovery and growth have created a robust stock market that has met and exceeded expectations for the U.S. economy. The rally that has propelled the DJIA above 16,500 points has persisted, despite a government shutdown, threatened fiscal crisis and default of U.S. debt. The outlook that wage growth will outpace inflation (the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the inflation rate for the U.S. in February 2014 was at 1.1%) will only increase the need for wealth management services.

A Blog For March
It's baseball season, and my arm is already sore.
I'm really excited about the 2 gigs this weekend. Friday night my pal Shad Blair is with me at the River Bar in the Grant Casino. That's a 10 o'clock starter. It's always a treat to play with Shad. He got me started in this stuff years ago.
Then Saturday morning, yes I said morning, me and the fellas will be at South Main Iron at 11am.
Did I mention when Shad and I get together we have a tendency to stay up extremely late. Or is it early.
This is how the rest of March goes.

Key Life Pillars
Self – Health – Relationships – Wealth – Business – Spirituality
In all of your business and life situations you are feeling, interpreting, reacting, choosing, deciding, behaving, speaking and taking action.
What is the common denominator in all of your key life interactions? YOU!
Does this sound a little or a lot like you?
- I am stuck in bad habits, or patterns of inaction, or ineffective action
- I try to create positive change but seem to keep treading water
- I am experiencing problems with reaching performance expectations and can't figure out how to breakthrough
- I have recurring negative thoughts and negative self-talk
- I am tired of getting caught up in difficult feelings without a way to deal with it effectively
- I uncover issues I don't know how to address and repeat patterns of behaviour that I know don't serve me well
- I automatically react negatively to people, situations and circumstances
- I feel that I'm actually holding myself back somehow and it's time to get out of my own way?
- I am ready to find and unleash my inner strength, take control of my life and reclaim my freedom
- I am 100% focussed on getting kickass tangible results in ALL areas of my life?
Two questions you could ask yourself are:
Am I in charge of my life or is my life in charge of me?
If I continue my day to day patterns of behaviour, will I achieve the future I strongly desire?
Let the person you are start to shine in your circumstance
- Have fun and smile
- Be filled with genuine positive energy which attaches more positive energy
- Be active, consistent and persistent in smashing your goals
- Be liberated by living will healthy beliefs that support success in all areas of your life
- Feel uplifted, powerful and confident as you navigate your business and life
- Enjoy all the most important "selfies" – self-love, self-acceptance, self-belief, self-confidence, self-esteem and self-assurance
- Feel equipped to detach from part hurts and strengthened to embrace the future
- Face challenges and opportunities with power, passion and grace
- Feel inspired and motivated to bounce back every day
- Believe, think, feel and act in ways that entirely support a positive and fulfilling life.

Hull Running Festival returns to the city for 2019 with its prestigious Hull 10K and much-loved Hull Half Marathon.
The Asda Foundation Hull Running Festival will return to the city next year on Sunday 2nd June, organisers Run For All announced today.
Following a successful debut in 2018, the festival will again include the well-established Asda Foundation Hull 10K and the Asda Foundation Hull Half Marathon – held for the first time this year.
And to add to the spirit of friendly competition, both events will include a Corporate Challenge – sponsored by MKM – in which companies will compete for the title of fastest firm in the race.
Both the routes will start and finish in Alfred Gelder Street and take in a number of Hull's cultural and historic landmarks including Holy Trinity Church and Hull City Hall.
Tristan Batley-Kyle, Run For All's head of events, said: "We were delighted with the success of the new half marathon. Combined with the 10K and the corporate challenges, it made for a great festival of running which attracted thousands of entrants and we are already looking forward to next year's event."
The 2019 Asda Foundation Hull Running Festival will be supported by Up & Running, Aftershokz, Arla Protein, Runderwear, Hull Daily Mail, MKM, Arco, Hull City Council, Hertz, Erdinger, Banana Kick, Viking FM and, title sponsor, Asda Foundation.
Mandy Rivett, Asda Foundation co-ordinator, said: "We are delighted to be supporting this festival of running. It offers a great choice of events and presents people with a wonderful opportunity to get fitter and support some excellent good causes."
Runners can choose to run for fun, for a personal challenge or to support a charity of their choice. They are especially encouraged to raise funds for one of the event's partner charities.
In 2018, a number of partner charities were handed a huge cash boost at the Asda Foundation Hull Running Festival including - Child Dynamix, Macmillan Cancer Support, Dove House Hospice, the Jane Tomlinson Appeal, Hull Homeless Community Project, Candlelighters, Hull and East Riding Breast Friends, Special Stars Foundation and Jerry Green Dog Rescue.

New illness and injury reporting rules issued by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) will take effect for most U.S. employers in 2015. Entities located in states under federal OSHA jurisdiction must begin complying by Jan. 1, 2015; entities in states that operate their own safety and health programs should check with their state plan for the deadline to comply with the new requirements.
Under the revised rule, employers must notify OSHA of any work-related fatality within eight hours, and any work-related in-patient hospitalization (excluding those for diagnostic testing or observation only), amputation or loss of an eye within 24 hours. OSHA's prior regulations only required reporting of fatalities and hospitalizations of three or more employees and did not require reporting of single hospitalizations, amputations or loss of an eye. Employers are directed to report the incident via telephone or in person at the nearest OSHA office, via the OSHA hotline (800-321-OSHA), or via electronic reporting once available on the OSHA website.
In addition to a reporting requirement, OSHA also requires certain categories of employers to maintain records of work-related injuries and illnesses. The new rule confirms that employers with 10 or fewer employees, regardless of their industry classification, are exempt from the requirement to maintain records of work-related injuries and illnesses. With the new rule, however, OSHA has subjected new categories of industries to the record-keeping requirement, while also updating the list of industries that, regardless of number of employees, are exempt from the record-keeping requirement. Entities exempt from the record-keeping requirement are still subject to the incident reporting requirement.

Indore slum dwellers knock collector's door against eviction
The Indore district administration has assured 500 slum dwellers facing eviction orders of looking into the matter and resolving it amicably, the officials said on Tuesday.indore Updated: Nov 03, 2015 21:47 IST
The Indore district administration has assured 500 slum dwellers facing eviction orders of looking into the matter and resolving it amicably, the officials said on Tuesday.
The slum dwellers alleged that they had been rehabilitated in Ramabai Nagar under an agreement with the district administration in 1995 and the eviction order only contradicted the district administration's earlier order.
However, the said order was challenged in a court by a government employees' co-operative housing society laying claim to the land. On October 26, the court directed the district administration to get the piece of land vacated and submit a compliance report by November 27.
Following the orders, the district and court officials reached Ramabai Nagar, showed residents the order and tried to raze their homes, claiming that the land belonged to the government employees' co-operative housing society.
However, on Tuesday the slum dwellers protested in front of the district collector P Narahari's office and presented their point of view. They reportedly conveyed to the collector that they were earlier rehabilitated to the locality from the banks of Kahn River near Krishnapura Bridge and CP Shekhar Nagar by former district collector Manoj Srivastava under an agreement. Narahari listened to their grievances and assured them of a rationale solution to the problem.
Social activists, who are fighting for their rights, said, "According to the agreement between district administration and Indore Development Authority (IDA), 15 % of the area in Scheme no. 140 is allotted to economically weaker sections. As per that agreement these slum dwellers were allotted land here." Each family was given 15 X 15 feet land to resettle.
Rights activist Madhuri Krishnaswami said, "A case between the district administration and a co-operative society was going on for last 20 years, which had recently been decided in favour of the latter. But during the 20 years, the slum dwellers, who will be the affected, are not made party in the case and were not even informed about the proceedings." This is completely illegal, she said.
Bharatiya Janata Party corporator from the area Sunita Solanki said, "There are about 175 units in the area, in which about 250 - 300 families are living. They did not have any clue about the court cases, and suddenly following court's orders, the administrative officials came with the orders to vacate the land. We are going to challenge this before high court."

In this YA fantasy/historical romance, an aristocratic young woman is in danger from demonic figures.
Soleil Devatt, who's about to turn 18, lives in an isolated French château with just her father, Charles; her older brother, Frederic, is away, and her mother died in a horse-riding accident two years before. In the surrounding forest live bloodthirsty, pale creatures who venture out, apparently only under the cover of darkness, to attack and kill people. Spoiled, stubborn, and beautiful, Soleil gets put off balance by the château's new huntsman, the young and handsome Taras. He's seductive, infuriating, and mocking yet concerned and helpful when Soleil is in trouble, as when she begins fainting and having unsettling visions. When Soleil's brother returns for her birthday, her cloying cousin Emiliana le Bihan also comes to visit, annoying her when she flirts with Taras. Soleil feels increasingly drawn to the woods; her visionary ability is somehow connected to it, and she knows that the creatures there want her blood. After Soleil's father has a stroke, the château's balance of power shifts, and later, with Taras injured and Frederic missing, it's up to Soleil to muster her abilities for a fiery confrontation with evil. Portera (Beasts and Roses, 2016, etc.) employs overly familiar tropes in the Scarlett O'Hara/Rhett Butler–style interplay between Soleil and Taras, who gets away with unlikely impertinence: "So, you have noticed I exist. I'm quite surprised." The book's temporal setting is murky, with revolution recent enough for escaped noble families to come under disfavor; a current "Russo" war (eight Franco-Russian wars were fought between 1733 and 1856); and bustles with ruching (fashionable in the 1870s). This blurriness particularly matters because the château's extreme isolation makes less sense in the later 19th century. The ending does have some unexpected twists in store, however, and Portera does write some effective passages, as when describing Soleil's "eerie feeling" about Emiliana perusing an occult book's engravings: "She had turned each page slowly and easily, taking in each depraved image as though it was familiar. As though she was home." A sequel is planned.
Some strong moments, but a formulaic romance and untethered timeline mar the novel.

Out of Time by REM (Warner Brothers, 1991)
Out of Time was American alternative rock band REM's seventh album. Out of Time is the album that propelled them into international superstardom. In the U.S., Out of Time spent 109 weeks on the album chart, 183 weeks on the British album chart and topped both charts. Out of Time has sold over 4 and a half million copies in the U.S.; over 18 million worldwide. Out of Time won three Grammys in 1992 (Best Alternative Music Album, Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and Best Short Form Music Video for the lead single Losing My Religion).
Losing My Religion has become REM's biggest U.S. hit. The song reached #4 on the Hot 100, their highest chart position ever. Losing My Religion hit number one in Belgium and the Netherlands while also topping Billboard's Mainstream and Modern Rock charts.
Shiny Happy People featured B-52 vocalist Kate Pierson. It peaked at #10 on the Hot 100 and #6 in the UK. This was REM's first song to crack the top 10 in the UK and their only single to reach the top ten in both countries. Shiny Happy People peaked at #2 in Ireland.
Near Wild Heaven was not released in the U.S., but peaked at #27 in the UK. It reached #3 in Ireland.
The final single off Out of Time was Radio Song. It peaked at #5 in Ireland.
In 2007, REM was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In September 2011, REM amicably split up.
