TWO more areas of Greater Manchester are to be switched to a single, daily postal delivery, the Royal Mail revealed today.
On Monday, homes and businesses in Prestwich and Ashton under Lyne are to follow east and south-east Manchester, where first and second posts have been replaced with a single service.
Royal Mail managers insist there will be no changes to delivery times for businesses and many householders won't notice any change either.
Deliveries are guaranteed before noon and people who want to pick up their mail earlier can arrange to collect it direct from the delivery office from 8.30am.
The changes will mean reducing the 97-strong workforce at Prestwich by nine and cutting staff at Ashton by five to 108.
Bosses claim there will be no compulsory redundancies and the cuts will be made by not filling vacancies and not replacing people who retire.
Postcodes M25 and M45 - Prestwich and part of Whitefield - will be affected in north Manchester and OL5, OL6, OL7 and SK15 in the Ashton area, which cover Ashton north and east, Hurst and Mossley.
The announcements follow a week of wildcat strikes which have cost the Royal Mail millions of pounds and dented hopes of returning to profit after recent heavy losses.
Jim McNicholls, Greater Manchester branch secretary of the Communication Workers Union, said members were happy with the changes.

Chiefs' Andy Reid roundup: cor

nerback situation
Mitchell Schwartz Jersey
, safety Ron Parker's return and more Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid opened up the regular season on Monday (Labor Day) with his first press conference, as the Chiefs prepare to take on the Los Angeles Chargers next Sunday at 3:05 p.m. Arrowhead Time.Let's round up the big takeaways from Reid.Reid is OK with the Chiefs beginning the season with an especially young cornerback room.Tremon Smith is one of five Chiefs cornerbacks.Denny Medley-USA TODAY SportsThe Chiefs are going with Kendall Fuller (23), Steve Nelson (25), Orlando Scandrick (31), Tremon Smith (22) and Charvarius Ward (22) in the cornerback room to start the season. Take out the elder statesman in Scandrick and that is a median age of 23. "We do have a couple new, younger guys," Reid said. "I do like them. I like what I saw from them with the addition of Tremon Smith, [it's] a good, young nucleus with that group. Again, a lot of confidence in Al (Harris) and Emmitt (Thomas) to give them an opportunity to grow. I'm good with the whole cornerback situation."I like what we've got there."Reid acknowledged during the presser that in today's NFL, defenses have three cornerbacks on the field "73-plus percent" of the time, and at least for now, that means Fuller, Nelson and Scandrick for the Chiefs.After calling starting safety Eric Berry day to day (more on that here), Reid detailed the thought process of bringing Ron Parker back after a quick stint with the Atlanta Falcons.Ron Parker will probably start, whether the Chiefs like it or not.Photo by Peter Aiken/Getty ImagesRon Parker played with the Chiefs from 2013-17 but was cut this past offseason due to his contract number. He's back in Kansas City after it didn't work out in Atlanta.Pro Football Focus rated Parker the No. 76 safety in the league last season."I thought Ron really actually had a good camp

," Reid said. "You know, he had that high-ankle sprain last year with us and I thought it slowed him down a little bit. He powered through it because that's Ron. I thought that you could see that he wasn't as limited during the preseason (Remember, the Chiefs played in Atlanta) as he labored through that thing last year."He knows the system, the scheme—he can come in, he's a good communicator. We've got a lot of trust in him." I liked the Chiefs' move to bring in Parker, as they desperately need some veteran consistency at the safety position with Berry's status up in the air. Parker is familiar with Bob Sutton, and the Chiefs obviously think Sutton can get the most out of him.In a surprise move, especially for Reid, the Chiefs kept only two quarterbacks on their initial roster—Patrick Mahomes and Chad Henne.Reid and his QBs.Jason Getz-USA TODAY SportsReid is very much a routine guy, so it was a bit surprising to see him make the move to cut Matt McGloin on Sunday, keeping just two quarterbacks on the active roster. "We had some good, young players that we wanted to keep, and so we made a decision there," Reid said. "Brett (Veach) and I talked about it. It is a first time. First time for everything. We looked at the percentages—I think there is 17 or 18 teams somewhere, you could double-check, but there's something like that in there that are doing it and have done it
Laurent Duvernay-Tardif Jersey
, and so we thought we'd do that and see how it worked, but it was in order to keep some of the young guys."Cutting McGloin made room for offensive guard Ike Boettger, who the Chiefs claimed from the Buffalo Bills."I like [him], I know he's big. A big guy," Reid said of Boettger. "If you have the chance to meet him, you'll see what I'm saying. He's got huge hands on him and a big body. He was a two-time team captain. He's got good leadership. I know (Buffalo Bills offensive line coach) Juan Castillo well, so I know he's been coached well."Boettger's addition makes 10 total offensive linemen on the Chiefs roster.Relax, Kent."We kind of like the guys that we got there," Reid said. "We've kept 10 before. You can't have enough of those guys, but again, everything in this thing is fluid, so I mean, right now, everybody's feeling everybody out and going, so I can't tell you what is there today is there tomorrow. I can't say that, but I like the guys that we have."I anticipate the Chiefs cutting one of the 10 offensive linemen after watching them during this week of practice—the Chiefs kept only two tight ends and will need a free roster spot when Demetrius Harris returns from his one-week suspension next Monday."We're OK with [two tight ends]
Ron Parker Jersey
," Reid said. "We kept an extra runner, too, than we normally do. We're with Demetrius in this situation that he's got. When he comes back next week, we'll have our three and feel pretty good with that. Right now, we're good enough to get through a game, I think."The extra runner the Chiefs kept was Darrel Williams, who they have under club control until 2022.There's a new No. 31 on the Chiefs.Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports23-year-old Darrel Williams joins the Chiefs' five-man running back room, also made up of Kareem Hunt, Spencer Ware, Damien Williams and Anthony Sherman.Similar to two quarterbacks being low for Reid, four running backs plus Sherman is high."He's one of those guys who came up through and showed us that he can play at this level and be a good running back," Reid said. "He's got room to grow. He's a tough runner—a little bit in Ware's mode in that he's strong in the core, he's got good hands. He's smart. Those are things you think you know but until you get him here and see, it's not for sure."We tell them to make our decision as tough as they possibly can make it, and he did that, so when Brett was sorting everything out
Allen Bailey Jersey
, that was something he had to think about because we normally don't keep that many backs. He deserves to be there and that's how he went about making that decision."I am a big supporter of the move to keep Darrel Williams, but I don't expect him to be active much in 2018 unless there is an injury. That being said, injuries happen to running backs all the time, so Darrel Williams will be expected to prepare like a starter should that happen. The Saints obviously have a bigger officiating complaint than the Chiefs do today. But Andy Reid took issue with a couple of calls in the Chiefs' loss to the Patriots on Sunday.The first was obvious: Officials botched a roughing-the-passer call on Chris Jones.Jones was called for hitting Tom Brady in the head on a fourth quarter incompletion. Jones never hit Brady in the head, and CBS rules analyst Gene Steratore said during the broadcast it was a bad call.Instead of facing a third-and-seven at their own 28, the Patriots got 15 yards and a first down. They scored a touchdown on the possession to go up 24-21."I saw our quarterba

Wedding Registries
Over the years, wedding registries have taken on a completely new form. Couples are seldom picking out fine china and matching monogrammed towels anymore, rather opting for experiences and more custom pieces for their home.
Dinnerware for entertaining guests, happy hour related gifts and honeymoon funds are the currently the most popular type of gifts that couples are registering for.
With so many options for every couple's needs, the registry can be overwhelming.
Here are some of our favorites!
Wayfair recently launched their Wedding Registry. They have beautiful ready-made registries, such as boho, modern and timeless classics to choose from, as well as specially curated collections inspired by Style Me Pretty, Joss & Main and many others.
Wayfair also has a mobile app, which allows you to access and manage your registry from anywhere. You can add new items, remove items you no longer want and track gift status.
They also have the option for group-gifting, so your friends can go in on larger gifts together!
What we love about Zola, is that it is not just a registry. The website has a planner that helps you figure out how many gifts you should add to your registry according to your guest count.
They also have pre selected registries, like Gifts Under $25, Fun and Adventure and Unique gifts.
You can also add monthly wine subscriptions, monthly massage subscriptions, and other experiences including cooking classes, sunset cruises and golf lessons. The best part is that they are customized to your home city.
For the couple that has everything they need, there is now a flower subscription service that sends the recipient beautiful blooms every month or week. Flower Muse offers many varieties of flowers and you can customize packages as well.
Finally, you may not be sure of what you need, or what you want- You may even be thinking of a relocation. Card Avenue is a gift card registry with hundreds of options from restaurants, retailers, online stores and credit card gift cards.
A gift card registry gives you the freedom to take the time to shop around and get the gifts your really want!
These are just some of our favorite places to register. Hope they help with the registry process!
Fall Weddings in New York
Fall in New York is easily one of the most beautiful seasons. It's welcome by picturesque foliage, coveted fall fashion collections, and a refreshing warmth from New Yorkers enjoying the cooler weather.
Every season has it's own sense of beauty and along with all there is to love about the fall season, it also comes with unexpected conditions.
Some things to keep in mind while planning your New York fall wedding:
1. Rain and cold temperatures are expected as we move into winter.
Be prepared for these conditions by planning ahead, watching the weather, and having a contingency plan with your venue and vendors.
Ask your venue coordinator what the plan is and follow up and confirm this plan the weeks leading up to your wedding.
If you are having an outdoor wedding, reserve tents so that you are not left without any cover.
Having outdoor heaters and blankets for guests in a lounge area still allows guests to keep warm and be able to enjoy themselves. Adding a s'mores station will keep your guests entertained as well.
2. Keep your guests in the loop
Keep in mid that your guests might not be familiar with the venue and inform them by indicating whether your wedding is indoors or outdoors on your invitations so that your guests can dress appropriately.
3. Holidays and Sporting Events
Fall season means back to school, holidays and football season to many. Check a calendar and plan ahead. If your wedding falls on a day where there may be a big game on, your guests might be distracted by tvs, ipads, iphones, etc.
Jewish holidays, thanksgiving and other extended weekends throughout the fall might make attendance difficult for some of your guests.
4. Take advantage of fall season favorites
The season has so many rich colors and flavors to offer. Use classic fall favorites, such as pumpkin, cider, pies and hot chocolate to your advantage in your decor and desserts. Your guests will truly enjoy having a medley of fall favorites to chose from.
Hope these tips were helpful- Feel free to leave your own tips below!

ZURICH, Aug 30 (Reuters) - A group of logistics services companies has bought a 35% stake in the Swiss Federal Railways cargo unit, SBB Cargo AG, in an effort to move more goods to trains from roads and return the government-controlled freight business to a profit.
Planzer Holding AG unit Swiss Combi AG, Camion Transport AG, Bertschi AG and Galliker Holding AG bought the stake, the railway said on Friday. That leaves government-owned federal railway company SBB with a 65% holding.
No purchase price was disclosed and the transaction must be cleared by competition regulators, with a decision due early next year.
SBB Cargo calls itself Switzerland's biggest goods transport company and handles nearly 30 million tonnes of freight a year.
It has trimmed jobs since 2018 after posting a loss, prompting SBB Cargo to focus on automation and digitalisation as it sought to reduce the 2,200-person workforce by 800 by 2023.
The Swiss government announced last December it hoped to sell a minority stake amid efforts to return the business to a profit by 2020.
"The combined logistics abilities of these partners will strengthen rail freight transport and contribute to shifting cargo from the streets to the rails," SBB Cargo Chief Executive Nicolas Perrin said. (Reporting by John Miller; editing by David Evans)

The ultimate guide to greener living
via WordPress 4ho.me/2ymzV4M
Not only does greener living directly impact the environment, when done correctly huge savings can be made to your annual household expenditure too. There are so many different ways you can incorporate greener living into your home, from having a water meter installed to discontinuing using plastic carrier bags. Here are a few pointers to get you on the road to greener living.
Be energy efficient
The energy used to fuel our homes is not only one of the biggest household expenses – it's one of our biggest contributions to climate change as individuals. Thankfully there are a few tricks to cut both, from simply turning down the thermostat by one degree to installing loft insulation which could knock up to £225 off your annual energy bill.
Turning off lights, taking appliances off standby and implementing timers will all help reduce monthly outgoings. Contact your energy provider and ask for a smart meter, which will allow you to check in near real time where your household is using the most energy and what it costs. It comes in particularly handy if you're renting with friends and split the cost of your utility bills.
Save water
With access to clean and safe drinking water literally on tap, it can be hard to identify with the need to actively try and save water. However, according to Water Wise the UK actually has less available water per person than most other European countries. Installing water efficient products will not only reduce outgoings, but you'll be directly cutting down the energy used in treating and pumping waste – making a positive impact on the environment.
As toilet flushing, baths, showers and running taps are the biggest culprits in terms of water consumption, install a 'hippo' in the toilet cistern to save up to 3 litres of water with every flush. It's also a good idea to fix dripping taps and fit showers and taps with aerated heads. Outdoors, a water butt is a welcome addition to any garden instead of a hose attached to the mains.
Leave the car at home
It can be so tempting to jump in the car and nip down to the local shops rather than brace the weather and endure a 10-minute walk. However, cutting down on unnecessary short journeys will not only greatly reduce your carbon footprint but will save you money on petrol and parking costs. What's more, it's a great way to sneak some exercise in to your daily routine.
When buying a new car, look for newer, more energy efficient models. While cutting your carbon emissions, they'll also save you money on vehicle tax and petrol costs.
Grow your own
Whether you only have space for a few raised boxes or house your own vegetable patch at the bottom of the garden, growing your own food doesn't have to be a daunting task. Hydroponic gardening is perfect for growing fruit and veg indoors with a quick turnaround. With practice, while you may still need to pick up supplies from the local supermarket, you'll be one step closer to self-sufficiency.

Bill Gates' commitment to plentiful nuclear energy for the world (Peter Kotecki, Business Insider) USofA01.Dec.2018
Bill Gates has a clear vision of a better world through working together for peace, prosperity, plentiful energy, good education, strong economies and respect for the environment. This requires advanced nuclear power technologies which he is spending billions of his hard earned fortune on to develop. Will the politicians and regulators stop holding nuclear back?
Vagisha Nidhi, Lecturer, Department of Nuclear Science & Technology, Mody University of Science & Technology, India: This PowerPoint Presentation is for education about things related to nuclear energy, nuclear medicine and nuclear science in India.
Paul Driessen, senior policy analyst for the Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow: On the global stage, despite Herculean efforts by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and activist groups to redefine 'climate change' and conjure up scary hobgoblins, the obsession over global warming, 'green' energy and the Paris climate treaty has hit the rocky shoals of reality. Despite well over $150 million spent by billionaires Tom Steyer, Michael Bloomberg, George Soros and multiple environmentalist groups, hard-green voter propositions were resoundingly defeated in the 2018 US elections.
Dangerous radioactive waste sits on Great Lakes shores (Keith Matheny, Detroit Free Press) USofA05.Nov.2018
Keith Matheny, writer for the Detroit Free Press: Again, the Detroit Free Press is out to spread inaccurate fearmongering about nuclear power and used fuel. The city of Detroit is an economic and urban disgrace to the United States. Few businesses want to locate there. Many of the children living there receive marginal education. After World War II cities in Asia and Europe rebuilt to very high standards and got strong economies going. The United States has let Detroit fester with many abandoned industrial, commercial and residential buildings for more than half a century. Nuclear waste is among some of the easiest waste to secure, manage and store, in part because of its compact nature. Nuclear waste management would bring revenue, jobs and education opportunities to areas that are now a wasteland. The economic benefits would last centuries.

"I've seen a lot of tired kids in class," Otis Vacratsis said. "They're not paying attention, have their heads on their desks. Sometimes I see them sleeping."
Public school board survey finds too many sleep-deprived high school students
A survey of high school students in the public board found nearly half of them are getting six or fewer hours of sleep each day.
The findings were part of the Greater Essex County District School Board's biennial School Climate Survey released Wednesday.
"If a student is not sleeping, how can they come to school to learn if they're tired," said Wendy Iatzko, a member of the survey committee and vice-principal at William G. Davis Elementary School.
"We found students are sleeping significantly less as they get older. We need to do more to educate people on the importance of sleep."
The Canadian Paediatric Society recommends eight to 10 hours of sleep daily for those 13 to 18 years of age. For elementary school-aged children the recommendation is for nine to 11 hours.
Of the 7,175 high school students to participate in the survey, 47.8 per cent reported getting between seven and eight hours of sleep each day. Only 6.9 per cent of students get nine or more hours of rest.
Another 36.3 per cent get five to six hours while nine per cent of students get four or fewer hours of shuteye.
"I'm not really surprised," said Otis Vacratsis, a Grade 9 student at Kennedy.
"Kids our age use our phones at night. Sometimes it's doing homework because we've been doing other stuff and didn't get it done.
"I've seen a lot of tired kids in class. They're not paying attention, have their heads on their desks. Sometimes I see them sleeping."
At the elementary level, nearly one in five Grade 7 and 8 students got six or fewer hours of sleep a night.
In Grades 4 through 6, 11.4 per cent of students got six or fewer hours of sleep.
Research shows a lack of sleep causes a host of health problems, including shorter attention span, poor memory, higher risk of acne, negatively impacts diet and increases irritability and aggressiveness.
Iatzko pointed to another finding in the survey that supports the blame being directed towards the overuse of technology for students' sleep issues.
Half of all high school students report they are spending four or more hours watching TV, using a computer, a hand-held device or playing video games on school nights.
Forty-two per cent of Grade 7 and 8 students reported using such devices for four or more hours while 27 per cent of Grades 4 to 6 students did the same.
Blessing Blessing, a Grade 9 student at Kennedy, admits many students are addicted to their cellphones.
"I'll sometimes communicate on my phone with my friends at 10, 11 or 12 at night," Blessing said.
"I'm not surprised in this electronic age that the number (not getting enough sleep) is that big. It's technology that's most responsible."
Sara Haidli, a Grade 9 representative on Kennedy's student council, said she's taken to turning her phone off at night.
"I have friends who are up at 2 a.m. and some pull all-nighters," Haidli said. "They'll post Snapchats of what they're doing.
"They'll make sure we know they've been up until 5 or 6 a.m."
Michael Moore, also a Grade 9 representative in student government, gets seven to eight hours of sleep and is an early riser.
"I like to go on my computer to read the news," said Moore, who gets up about 5 a.m.
"Different people can function on different amounts of sleep, but I'm surprised so many are getting less than six hours."
In addition to phones and electronics, Moore said student jobs also consume valuable time. It can be later shifts keeping students out or having to catch up on your studies after you come home from working after school.
"There are just so many distractions for kids these days," Moore said. "I've seen kids fall asleep in class. I've seen kids get angrier quicker than normal because of lack of sleep.
"It impacts in a lot of ways."

Welcome to Virginia Wine Country™
Wine Tour Party Planning by a Connoisseur
Experts in the wine business since 1977
Our Official Accommodation Partner.
Please click the logo to start your reservation in Wine Country or allow us to do it for you.
How to Plan
For Your Budget
Flights: Rates vary based on when booked
Accommodations in Wine Country range on when you book. The sooner the better.
Average rate: $150 to $200 per night for a 4 star property. Visit our recommended accommodations we like in Wine Country.
Transportation: Ranges based on service and type of vehicle and time used. Average rates are as follows:
Sedan: $50 an hour*
Limo: $95 an hour*
Mini Coach: $125 an hour*
Deluxe Coach: $150 an hour*
Other custom limos such as Hummer limos and specialty are customized to your request.
Wineries: On average ranges from $5 per person for a flight of wines. Groups range from $5 to $15 depending on what you want. ( only the wineries can collect for fees for alcohol of any kind, yes tastings are alcohol!)
While we do email the wineries already on your behalf for groups 8 or more, some of you may want something more special or a VIP activity. Remember, alcohol/wine is not included– so travel with small amounts of petty cash since some wineries charge differently for tastings or flights of wine to taste, some even paired with hors d' oeuvres! Wineries can vary from a few wines to a dozen wines to taste at different packages. Be careful how much you drink/consume, please. We also always recommend you buy a bottle of wine or two from each winery – makes a great gift or perfect to enjoy with new friends. Wine is very personal! What one guest may want to do is different from every other guest. Some just want to try reds, some whites, some a little of everything, and many don't even do tastings at every winery anymore. In fact, many of our customers report that they just taste one wine such as a Cabernet, and then decide to buy a glass or bottle, and they don't get charged for that tasting before they make a purchase. In other instances, after the first winery, some of our guests just want to buy wine by the glass or a bottle and sit on the patio of the winery to relax. So, as you can see – this varies greatly. Most important is to just have FUN, Cheers!

Management of the slot is classically simple because the function keys of the control panel are quite standard:
1. Select Lines button helps you to select a certain number of game lines.
2. Bet Max option activates the game at the maximum bet.
3. Spin button activates the rotation of the slot reels.
4. Plus Sign and Minus Sign will allow you to adjust the value of the coin.
Unique symbols and features of the 5 Reel Drive slot
5 Reel Drive free casino slot also contains special characters that help the user, making the gameplay more diverse and memorable.
The Road Sign – the road that winds and takes the traveler away to new adventures – is the Wild symbol of the slot. The function of the wild symbol is well known – it helps in creating prize combinations, replacing "bad" icons for the user. It should be remembered that a wild symbol cannot replace the scatter symbol of a gaming machine.
The scatter symbol is represented in the form of Police Car. It is not tied to the active lines and can be deployed in absolutely arbitrary cells of game drums. It is worth noting that the appearance of three or more scatter symbols on the screen of the 5 Reel Drive gaming machine promises to receive good payments, which the the payout table will certainly tell the user.
The most valuable gaming symbol is a light caught by the wheel at the speed limit. If the user is lucky enough to collect a complete "set" of such spoiled rubber on the active line, then he expects to receive the maximum payout of the gaming machine.
Other pictures on the online device 5 Reel Drive bring such multipliers:
· donuts with coffee – 6, 13, 50;
· blueberry pie – 7, 18, 70;
· cola – 9, 20, 120;
· fried potatoes – 10, 30, 300,
· hamburger – 13, 60, 600; Dice – 7, 15, 80, 700;
· Beauty Machine – 8, 15, 90, 800;
· Auto Handsome – 10, 25, 150, 900;
· The Truck of the Trucker is 12, 25, 200, 1000;
· The racing wheel and the start flag – 12, 40, 500, 10000.
Automatic machine description summary
The thematic slot machine 5 Reel Drive surely appeals to avid motorists and fans of racing. The presence of special characters makes the journey along the federal route of Success even more interesting, and colorful game pictograms bring a touch of humor, positive and love of life to the gameplay.

What Layar does is superimpose icons for food or fun over the view through your phone's camera. Point up the street and see what there is, or go the other way to see if there's something more interesting.
Not only does Layar give you the skinny on local food choices, but there's a ton of free and paid "layers" that can get you the weather, the local Wiki, You Tube and even Space Invaders! Layar will bring out the inner geek in you faster than an Intel i7 can calculate your GPA.
There is way too much in Layar to fully give it justice in a short review like this, so take it for a spin and see where it will lead you. Chances are you'll find something new in your town or some neat place hiding, non-descript like, that will become your new haunting ground.
Ratings :
Speed (4/5) – add coment hereThe app itself is very snappy, that slow part is waiting for data, especially if you're out and about and not on wi-fi.
Features (35/5) – add comments hereThe app is fully packed with layer upon layer of fanciful good stuff, a lot paid and even more free.
Theme (23/5) –add coment here The overall look and feel of Layar is good. There are grey-scale tabs at the top and a mixed bag of colors for each layers icons on a white background with black text that is easy to read at a glance and very easy to comprehend.
Overall (3/5) –add coment here Layar is "the next big thing" for smartphones. It's polished enough now but there is always room for improvement and the future of this type of app is very bright indeed.
- Easy to use on the go. Makes finding an eating or drinking establishment fun and fruitful.
- Fun use of camera and layering technology to put the augment smack dab into Android Land.
- It's a great way to wow your friends and learn more about your surroundings.
- A little overwhelming at first glance with all the Layer choices.
- Tough to find local layers in the US (At least in St. Louis!)
- Not all layers work in all cities.The negatives of the app in point form
Conclusion: Round up conclusion of and the functionality of the app The Layar Reality Browser is a functional, albeit gimmicky, app that surely has a place in the "wow factor" of Android-dom but also serves a great purpose in helping you find places to eat, play and drink with a fun form and function. It's augmented reality. Really.

It's hard to pinpoint an exact genre on No Miracles Here. Spanning theatre, music and storytelling, it carves out a new innovative, devised genre far away from the realms of musical theatre. With the stage set up in a concert-like setting, the production revolves using live music in collaboration with theatre to create a story. In the way that musical theatre is dialogue interspersed with showtunes, this is a concert interspersed with dialogue. The plot follows the band's frontman, Ray, through a dance marathon to combat his feelings of isolation and depression, where the key rule is simple: don't let your knees hit the ground.
The style developed through No Miracles Here is honestly an article in itself. It blends theatre and music, blurring and stretching the line between the two, creating seamless natural progressions between the two forms. The almost-constant soundtrack proves an engaging and interesting backing to a show, giving an unending rhythm and pace to the action. It is impossible to determine where the theatre ends and the music begins, whether we are in one form or the other and, ultimately, it doesn't matter. No Miracles Here doesn't feel like a mash-up of two genres, it feels like a cohesive, consistently stylised story and the bottom line is, it works. An inventive, successful style gives the show a genuinely refreshing feel. It's always a joy to see something new, in this case, a genre which had never even occurred to me as even being possible.
"it is impossible to determine where the theatre ends and the music begins"
The composition, choreography and vocals involved are all strong. Harmonies are crisp, dancing is energetic and the music is catchy and interesting. However, there are occasional stumbles. The acting occasionally falters and the writing sometimes feels stilted, but the music brings everything back on track and keeps it moving through the production. Dealing with themes of isolation and depression may initially seem a daunting and heavy subject, and there are intense and emotional moments, but they never become gratuitous. No Miracles Here does a brilliant job of keeping an upbeat pace, exuding energy and becoming intoxicatingly fun.
Overall, No Miracles Here is a supremely enjoyable production. Well-crafted music underpins an exciting and emotional story within a refreshing and inventive genre. Incredibly original and undeniably fun, No Miracles Here is certainly worth a watch.

Our region is blessed with one of the finest orchestras in the worldthe Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. When not performing in the 1800's architectural masterpiece Music Hall (it's only about about 20 minutes from AiG), the orchestra travels the world to perform (including, in recent years, various European countries and Japan).
Some of the orchestra members are good friends of AiG. One is the concertmaster, Tim Lees. The concertmaster, I am told, is something of an assistant to the conductor and is considered the "chief" among the musicians. For example, Tim helps maestro Paavo Jarvi select music, represents orchestra members in their dealings with management, and plays first violin. Tim, still a relatively young man for such a prestigious position, is a 1992 graduate of the well-known Eastman School of Music.
More importantly, Tim has a love for the Lord (and serves as a leader in his church, the Bible Chapel of Delhi Hills in Ohio, where some AiG staff attend).
Tim dropped by AiG on Monday morning and toured the museum, and then played some wonderful hymns for us on his violin, while his wife Mary Ellen accompanied him on the keyboard. Many staff told us that it was one of the most inspirational staff meetings we have ever held. For me, it reminded me of my father. My father played the violin and he also sang in church in duets and quartets. Tim played two hymns that I remember clearly as two of my fathers favorites. I could almost hear my father singing his part as Tim so beautifully played these famous hymns.
Listen to two particular pieces Tim played Monday morning to our staffand also Tims important introductions.
Also, to find out more about this great orchestra in AiG's backyard, go to www.CincinnatiSymphony.com. In fact, when you come to the Creation Museum next year (to open, Lord willing, May 28), try to time your visit when the symphony is performing. Not only will you have a most enjoyable time, but youll see Tim in action as the concertmaster.
Mally and I (and other AiG staff members) attended the special memorial service for Dr. Charles Wagnerhe was our pastor in Northern Kentucky for nine years before he retired a couple of years ago. We have many fond memories of this great expositional Bible teacher. He also was a great support for AiG. A number of us reminisced about the life of Dr. Wagner today. I thought I would share one such remembrance with you.
When we were having the rezoning battles of land for the Creation Museum a number of years ago, Dr. Wagner attended many of the public meetings and publicly supported AiG. At one of these meetings, a very liberal minister (who wore a large cross around his neck) spoke against us. At the end of this meeting, Dr. Wagner went up to him and said, you ought to be ashamed of yourselfyou should take the cross off. This liberal minister never forgot thisand just about every time he was quoted in the newspaper concerning AiG and the Creation Museum, he said something like one of their group told me to take my cross off. This liberal minister will always remember Dr. Wagner! And we will always remember him tooespecially for his in-depth Bible teaching and his uncompromising stand on the authority of the Word of God.
Well, thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying.

Want to Learn Table Calculations? Here's How! RHSD - The Anatomy of a Nested Table Calculation. The twittersphere & inter-webs are abuzz with help understanding Tableau Table Calcs.
Among the more recent, these are my favorites: And fully two years ago now, Jonathan started to compile this list of resources for all skill levels: Want to Learn Table Calculations? Here's How! Moving average of running total table calculation. Breakthrough.
After I modified Shawn's version of the sales workbook with my forumlas, I found the results were almost the same. Then I realized that's because there are order events for every day, and the date format is set to date, which means the columns of the table are exactly days, so the window calculation units are days. Whereas in my data, my events are plotted in datetime rather than date, which means there is not a 1:1 relationship between columns and days, hence the need for all my formulas. When I switched my data from datetime to date, everything got smoother and I had events for almost every day so my units are almost 1:1.
My formulas are still required for when there are days with no data, though if this is rare, and you're only concerned with window averages, the effect is minimal. Here's what my data looks like now, compare to the first picture I posted above. Jonathan's Teachings re: Table Calculations &am... This came from a thread I didn't want to lose: Taking a step back here, the question is about comparing across records in the underlying data in order to filter out Email IDs that belong to list 123, then count the remaining Email IDs per List ID.
This kind of problem is a great practice for me to explain, so I'll take a little extra time to walk through the steps involved to reach a couple of solutions. A distinct record (row) in the data is made of the Email Address and List ID. So if we want to exclude certain Email IDs based on the presence of a List ID for that record, we have to look across records. In order to make Tableau do that (there's no single magic function to do that kind of filtering, like the other BI tool you mentioned, Roopa) we need to work with the three calculation levels in Tableau: - Record (or row) level. . - Aggregate. Jonathan's Teachings re: Table Calculations &am... Calculating sum of requests within a zip code r... Hi Florian, To understand what is going on here requires some understanding of how Tableau computes totals.
Joe Mako shared an nice perspective on this with me and it is a very helpful perspective for this example, so I will do my best to paraphrase (I pinged him just in case I got something wrong). Think of the grand total as a separate worksheet, where the only difference is that the dimension you are totaling across isn't present. In your situation, that means zip code isn't there. The problem with that your calculations, in particular the filters, depend on the full granularity of zip code. My approach to forum questions sometimes reminds me a bit of the tv show Mythbusters. GROUPBY DISTINCT MAX Tableau 9. For more info on the three levels of calculation, I suggest you watch this Think Data Thursday on Setting up for Table Calculation Success, most of it is very applicable to working with Level of Detail calcs: Fundamentally, there are three levels of calculation in Tableau: - record level: The calc is computed for each and every record in your data source. - aggregate: This is SUM(), MIN(), MAX(), etc. and the calculation is computed at a specific granularity.
In the case of a view, the granularity uses the dimensions in the view (this is a simplification when it comes to blending) - in SQL terms, all your dimensions are part of the GROUP BY of the aggregation. For a conditional or top filter or computed Set, the granularity is the chosen dimension. Table Calculations - Why apply them 'By Cell'
A question I was recently asked by an in training Tableau User was 'Why would I apply a table calculation by cell?'.
Top 10 Tableau Table Calculations. This page shows 10 powerful examples of Tableau's Table Calculations.
Most require writing a simple formula of some kind. RHSD - Master Tableau Approach. In an earlier post, titled Master Tableau Concepts, I have summarized and added color to a talk by Joe Mako in which he highlighted the advanced concepts that a master practitioner can use to achieve flow by working with instead of against Tableau.
This was an excellent talk which he also gave as a repeat at TC14. In this new post, Master Tableau Approach, I'll summarize & add color to a TC14 session from Bethany Lyons and Alan Eldridge, titled Jedi Level Calculation Techniques. Today's topic is the thought process used by a master practitioner when deciding which technique to employ when answering a complex question using Tableau. While introducing his own TC14 session, Dashboarding at the Edge of Impossible, Dustin Smith described the Tableau Jedi not as the person who knows every tip and trick. He instead described a Jedi as the person who knows how to best approach the problem. Rank Question. True.
It is always interesting to see several solutions to a problem. This is curious because of the different partitioning required. Using a table calc across date field turns on domain completion (densification) so you get the same set of dates for every employee. This is a problem (and often a very confusing one), since the max date is then the same for every employee but since this isn't necessarily a record in the original datasource you end up getting a null for sum([Result]). Matthew's solution works around this by formally including the Employee dimension in the partitioning, but restarting the calculation for each employee. For the tie breaker, I added a third solution that uses the same partitioning as Matthew's, and also uses Rank.
A Jedi (Filter and Table Calc) Trick. Let's say we would like to rank our Sub-Category of Products by Sales and have the ability to remove/hide certain Sub-Categories without this affecting our rank calculation or average reference line.
Well, this is not as straight-forward as it seems! Try it yourselves in the below viz, if you de-select the Office Machines from the filter, the rank and the average sale reference line will both recalculate. This is actually working as intended as when we remove the item from the Quick Filter we are actually removing it from the query that Tableau sends to the datasource. Average Number of Records per Hour per Weekday. Hi Bill, I'm working on my Think Data Thursday presentation for next week and found your post and it's a really good example of some things I'll be presenting, so I'm going a little long in my write-up here. I also do appointment analysis, so I'm not unfamiliar with this kind of problem. In Sheet1 of your view you had turned off Aggregate Measures, so what Tableau is doing in SQL terms is something like: SELECT weekday(date), hour(date), row_num, Number of Records. At the Level – Unlocking the Mystery Part 1: Ordinal Calcs.
There was a Tableau forums thread on At the Level awhile back where Matthew Lutton asked for an alternative explanation of this somewhat puzzling table calculation configuration option, and I'd promised I'd take a swing at it. Plus, I've been deep into book writing about shaping data for Tableau, and a taking a break to write about obscure table calc options sounds like fun! (Yes, I'm wired differently.) Table Calculation Fundamentals.pdf. Tip0911.pdf. Want to Learn Table Calculations? Here's How! Transition Matrix. I'm with Noah. Doing the work outside of Tableau to give yourself a Row ID that you could join on or even to set up some slightly-complicated SQL to do the same using a date will make life so much easier in Tableau that I believe it's worth the effort. I'll explain how the LOOKUP() is doing what it does in your Table Calc view, then explain why a working table calc solution is more difficult to put together.
Tableau makes working at different levels of granularity really easy, right up until the point that we need to pay attention to them and then it's not much help. In the Table Calc view, there are two levels of granularity that are important, the granularity of the raw data (where Date & Name are the dimensions that determine what makes a unique record) and the granularity of the view (the distinct combinations of values of the dimension(s) are on Rows, Columns, Pages, and the Marks Card). Want to Learn Table Calculations? Here's How!
How to Have Sets with Your Secondary (Data Sources) Tableau Sets can turn incredibly complicated interactions into a few mouse clicks that can reveal patterns in your data. However, if you've ever created a Set in a secondary data source and tried to use it across a blend in a primary, this is what you see: Lots of grayed out items that can't be touched. It's like you're at a party and have just met the hot-babe-of-appropriate-gender-of-your-dreams and they are totally into you, but only at the party, and not back at your place. However, like many things in Tableau, with a little creativity you can get what you need, and there is a way where you can have your Sets anywhere you want. If you're not familiar with sets, then I suggest you start with Hot. For this post I'll attempt to avoid any more jokes about sets and show you how you can get jiggy with use sets from blended secondary data sources, and probably learn a bit more about data blending on the way.

7th Biennial Conference of the Network "Afroeurope@s: Cultures and Black Identities in Europe": Afroeuropeans - Black In/Visibilities Contested
The 7th Biennial Conference of the Network "Afroeuropeans: "Black In/Visibilities Contested" will be held in Lisbon (ISCTE - IUL), and is an important platform for the production of knowledge in the pertinent field of transdisciplinary research on racism, black cultures and identities in Europe. It also offers the opportunity to strengthen and widen networks between scholars, activists and artists that question structural racism and are critically engaged with the production of postcolonial knowledge on european blackness and the african diaspora. This dialogue and networking is promoted through keynotes and panels, round-tables, individual speakers and artistic and cultural activities.
This conference is the result of a long collaboration between academics, writers and artists from many European universities and research institutes and from other parts of the world that gave rise to the international network "Afroeurope@s: Cultures and Black Identities in Europe". With the aim of deepening the knowledge of black populations in Europe and their contribution to society in all areas of life, the network organized conferences in different European universities: University of León in 2006 and 2009; University of Cádiz in 2011; University of London and Open University in 2013; University of Münster in 2015 and University of Tampere in 2017. We are honored to bring this debate for the first time to Lisbon, a city with one of the largest African diasporas, which has influenced literature, music, language and the Portuguese society in general in the last five centuries. The local organizing committee is composed of researchers, artists and activists from different universities and collectives from Portugal, Brazil and Switzerland.
The title of the conference incorporates the tensions, ambiguities and paradoxes of Blackness in Europe. At the same time as black histories, cultures and social conditions are made invisible in hegemonic accounts on Europe, there is a hypervisibility and presence of black stereotyping in European popular culture. Also, while the concept of race has largely disappeared from political, sociological and administrative discourses (in continental Europe), and while the disengagement with institutional and structural racism has been reframed in new capitalist post racial rhetorics, racial markers still have currency, and black bodies continue to be invoked as either tolerated guests at best, or threatening intruders at worst. The consequence is the practice of "embodying an identity that is declared impossible even though lived by millions", namely as non-white Europeans, and specifically as Black Europeans. This identity has become even more conditioned by a new mainstreaming of right-wing discourses and the tightening immigrant and refugee policies that affect people of African descent.
The conference addresses not only these relations of domination, and racial modes of exclusion, but engages primarily with the continuous contestations and resistance these in/visibilities have gone by. We turn our gaze to the disregarded histories and cultures, and inquire past, new and continuous forms of Afroeuropean political, social, cultural and artistic interventions and resistance. This implies taking into account the different positionalities within European Blackness, linked for instance to diasporic origins, language, gender, social class, citizenship status, sexuality, dis/abilities, as well as the varying geo-spatial and post-colonial historical formations.
This conference and the approved panels were organized following six thematic lines:
- Black Europe at its Intersections
- Afroeuropeans in the Arts and the Mediasphere
- Activisms, Resistances and Public Policy in late Capitalist Europe
- Black Cities: Public Space, Racism, Urban Cultures and Segregation:
- Decolonising Knowledge on Black Europe, African Diaspora and Africa
- Theorizing Blackness and Racial Europe
The Call for Papers will be open until March 15, 2019. To submit the proposals please consult the 30 open panels distributed through the 6 thematic lines:

Can You Write Our Paper Quickly?
Another concern that pupils have actually is whether or otherwise not or perhaps not a writing solution can fulfill their deadlines. The very first time most students use Write my essay, they will have invested times and sometimes even months struggling to accomplish a challenging writing project and only understand they need help once the due date is looming. Our standard due date for documents is five times, but with respect to the Complexity and length of a project, we are able to finish some documents literally within a question of hours.
