As far as I can tell this function is not available as of 126.96.36.199 (Aug 2019). If I select a single point in a table and then use a map to zoom to selection, then it zooms out the whole world. It should maintain the current scale and pan to place the point at the centre of the view. Another compounding issue is that for rare flora and fauna, the coordinates for observations are often truncated, so stacks of points are present at locations which have coordinates with round numbers (usually degree or 0.1 degree precision). It seems that if I select a point using the table, which happens to be in a stack of points and it is not the top point, then there is no red selection mask. In combination, these issues make it really hard to find points of interest.
Got a system half worked out. Firstly I have to select the stack of points on screen using Ctrl-click and drag. Then I can Alt-click on the stack to show the records pane and can select 'move to only selected records' option. Using this combination, I can cycle through the records in the stack. I can also use a filter on 'Selected' records. This lets me investigate the contents of one stack at a time.
What I would like to be able to do is see how many stacks have Square-tailed kites. I though that I could use thematic formatting to make different icons for selected records.
I tried to make a query like
SELECT * FROM [qrySpeciesLocationsWitheld] CALL Selection([qrySpeciesLocationsWitheld],true);
That I could create a dynamic layer on but don't know how to make it work. If I could create the layer, I could put it on top of the layer with the stacks and then see stacks that contain the species of interest.

Then I can Alt-click on the stack to show the records pane and can select 'move to only selected records' option. Using this combination, I can cycle through the records in the stack. I can also use a filter on 'Selected' records.
There's an illustration of the above technique in the Example: Edit Covered Objects topic.
The basic problem is that stacking multiple points on top of each other using identical symbols is a good technique for breaking a visual user interface that depends on items of interest being visually separate.
It's a bit like police asking a witness to pick the robber who mugged them from a lineup of suspects, but then putting a bag over all the heads so the witness cannot see their faces: that breaks the visual user interface upon which the lineup depends - you cannot identify that which you cannot see.
If you have a data set that gives coordinates for rare flora with truncated coordinates that have too low resolution to show where the rare flora are located, well, that may be useful for some purposes, such as aggregating counts of flora per region or per country, but it's no longer useful for identifying specific locations of individual examples.
There are ways to extract what you can out of such data. For example, you can write SQL to generate summaries that show locations of co-incident point objects and attach to each such location a count of the number of coincident points. Create a bigger, green point for such locations and use that as a layer under your other points layers. That will highlight locations where you have "stacks."
Another technique is to use different symbology for different items within a stack. For example, suppose you have an oak, a pine, and a linden tree at exactly the same location. Use a long, skinny triangle for each in a thematic format that rotates each to a different angle and colors each differently.
The result of the stack will be symbols that do not completely overlap but which instead are visible by virtue of their different rotation no matter where they are in the stack. To get more emphatic differences, you could also vary the Move and offset parameters in addition to Angle for each different symbol in the thematic format, so they are offset away from each other at different angles and thus not overlapping at all.
How to do such thematic rotation is illustrated in the Example: Point Style using Move and Rotate topic.
Thanks Dimitri,
I got close with the use of thematic formatting to show items hidden in the stack of symbols but it does not work. The orchid is at the bottom of a stack of 46 symbols. It does not matter than I assign a 20 point dot to the orchid to make it expand out beyond the margins of the other symbols, it still does not draw.
I have also tried selecting the points in the drawing and pasting them as a new drawing but I get a table rather than the drawing I want.
I have also tried just writing a select query and selecting only one species, which works but I can't get a drawing based on the table to show any features, even though the query returns rows with a geom column.
I am also wondering how to get a filter applied to a table to reflect in the drawing based on that table. That is if I filter for one species, surely the dependent table should respect that filter.
I am currently working on a guess machine no my own, so I am using viewer and not my machine which has a licensed full version of manifold. I also thought that if I could create a couple of valid use cases for viewer, I could spread a few copies around the ESRI dominated company I work at.
Steep learning curve over here!

If several points are on top of each other in the same drawing, rendering is going to omit some, that's on purpose. We don't have a way to specify which ones to omit vs which to keep at the moment, that's on the wishlist for future additions.
What specifically does not work with writing a query to select specific points and creating a drawing based on that? If you provide a sequence of steps you are following, we can look at it. Alternatively, post a MAP file with a drawing, say which points you want to keep vs which to hide, and we can show how to do that.
If you have a filter applied to a table and you want it reflected in a drawing, you can (a) invoke View - Filter - Filter using Query in the table window to express the filter as a query, this will open a new command window, (b) invoke Edit - Save as Query in the command window to save the query text as a query component, (c) create a drawing based on that query (right-click the query component in the Project pane, select Create - New Drawing, etc).
PS: When you create a drawing based on a query, do you specify the coordinate system of the geometry field? The coordinate system that the field is going to use is shown in the New Drawing dialog. You should set it to the same coordinate system as for the original table.
I have a similar situation. We track mobile homes by their address. In a mobile home park all the homes have the same address with a different box number. I use BatchGeo to locate the addresses, export results from BatchGeo to Google Earth, and import the kml file to Manifold 8. For me the coincident points has not been an issue, because I don't necessarily care that there are multiple points at the same location as long as a search for the ID number sends me to the right address.
A subset of the data I am working with is posted below. It is publicly available BioNet data supplied by the State of New South Wales Australia. To see the issue, import the data and make a drawing from it and then select all the 'Sooty Owl' records. I have attached a screen clip of the the result below.
In response to Adam's comment that not all points are rendered. I think that is fine as long as the selected points are rendered on top of the non-selected points. That way if any selected point is rendered, it will be obvious that the stack of points contains at least one selected point.

Regarding converting the filter to a query and then creating a drawing on the query, I did this for 'Sooty Owl' and the query returns the correct numbers of rows but the drawing is empty. I am setting the projection to be the same as that which was set for the original layer (lat-long).
I agree with Dimitri about changing the data model but that approach also requires writing queries that can support drawings.
Attachments: StacksMap.mxb
that approach also requires writing queries that can support drawings.
True, and that can seem daunting at first, but it is one of those things where, as the adage has it in some cultures, "the eyes are afraid but the hands do the work." It looks scary but it turns out to be simple if you just do it.
Creating a drawing from a query is easy: it's the same as creating a drawing from a table: right-click the query and choose Create - New Drawing and the dialog is the same as for a table.
OK, so that leaves writing a query from which a drawing can be created. That's easy too. All you need is a query that includes a geom field from the table(s) it uses.
For your task, you want a query that grabs only selected items from the original table (or drawing... same thing). That's a one line, simple query:
SELECT * FROM CALL Selection([Mexico Table], TRUE);
Every step for using the above query to create a nicely-styled drawing is simple but to help out when you do it the first time every step is covered in the Example: Create a Drawing from a Query topic. I recommend downloading the Mexico example map and then repeating the example.
Here's your setup for your task: the original drawing with many stacked points is your lower layer in the map. Above that in the layer stack is the drawing created from the query above, styled so that any points in it are big and brightly colored and can't be missed.
When you select points in your original drawing's table, they automatically appear as points in the drawing created from the query above any stacked points, because they are created by the query in a drawing layer that is above the original, full of stacks, drawing.
Using a query is a simple way to put selections above any stacks, using the data model as is. So it is limited by the data model. For example, if you select in the table two or three species which happen to have observations at the same spot you could end up selecting two or three points in the same stack.
That will generate two or three co-located points in the query results, and thus in the drawing created from the query. The query-generated drawing will show a bright dot at that location, but you won't know if it is just one point there or a stack of two or three co-located points.
I can think of various contortions (like using more than more drawing generated from a query when you want to simultaneously select more than one species...) to deal with that. But so long as you have a data model that stacks many points at the same spot, there will be inelegance involved.
Thanks Dimitri, your advice is correct. Now everything works and I can't make it not work. But until now the opposite was true. Sometimes it is my error - I was using double quotes on strings in WHERE clauses, other times I have no idea and the issue seems to just go away by itself. Below is a screenshot of an attempt that did not work.
Attachments: DynamicDrawing.JPG
I can see at least one problem with the drawing linked from a query in the MXB file attached - it is lacking coordinate system and so renders in the wrong place compared to the rest of the data.
If you open the MXB, qrySpeciesLocationsWitheld is the data table, qrySpeciesLocationsWitheld Drawing is the drawing for that table, Query is a query with SELECT ... WHERE ... 'sooty owl' from that table, and Drawing is a drawing for that query. However, the coordinate system of qrySpeciesLocationsWitheld Drawing is set to EPSG:4326 (with the axes being YX, not forced to be XY, this is fine for now, but something to keep in mind as well), you can see that if you open the drawing and then go to the Contents - Component pane. And the coordinate system of Drawing is not set to anything and so it uses the default pseudo-Mercator. When these drawing are overlaid on top of each other, data goes to different locations, the coordinate systems should be the same but they are not.
To fix this: open Drawing, go to the Contents - Component pane, click the coordinate system picker button, select Assign Initial Coordinate System - Edit Coordinate System, select the EPSG tab, type in the filter '4326', select the EPSG:4326 system in the list, *uncheck* Force XY at the bottom of the dialog (because the coordinate system of the original data uses YX, we have to be the same), then click OK. Now, if you open qrySpeciesLocationsWitheld Drawing (or Map, which is a map component that has a single layer for that drawing), and drop Drawing into it, the objects in the two drawings are going to overlap (set some formatting to tell the two drawings from each other).
Thoughts: we should perhaps add means to set the coordinate system of a component to that of another existing component. This would simplify things.
There is one more gotcha - if you open Drawing on its own instead of dropping it into an existing map, it does not know where to zoom to because it does not know where the data is because this is a query and not a table, and there is no telling what the bounding box of data in the query is without reading all its records and this could be slow so we don't do it automatically. So, when you open Drawing, the screen is empty. Worse, if you click Zoom to Fit, the screen remains empty, we still don't know where to zoom. You have to right-click the layer tab at the bottom and select Zoom to make the window go "ok, fine, I am going to read through all data and find where it is" and finally zoom to the data. We will make Zoom to Fit do the same thing as Zoom in this case.
Regarding adamw's reply: I didn't expect the rendering optimizer to eliminate points on top of each other, so sorry for the bad advice. But it makes sense why the rendering optimizer does that. Even if it didn't, a stack of 46 symbols would be a challenge.
In cases where you have very many data points in a stack, I suppose it is time for a different data model, because visually what you have now is no longer "normal form" with so many at one spot. It's like having a table of Employees where there are two fields, a department field and a names field. The department field has a list of departments like Sales, Personnel, Manufacturing, etc., and the names field has a list of the names of each employee in that department, like Sam Jones, Tom Wilson, Janet Kline,... and so on.
That's a mess for data organization, not normal form, because you have so many employees colliding at the same "spot", that is, the same record. So you have similar issues trying to pull out an individual employee, to trying to pull out one record from many that collide at the same spatial location.
The right way to organize such a company grouping is to have a table of Departments, where each department has just one record and an ID, and then a table of Employees, where each record is one employee name and that table includes a field called Department which gives the department ID for that employee. At any time you can JOIN to get a table with a list of employees by department, etc. See any of Chris Fehily's books for a discussion of how you save lots of time and hassle by organizing data in normal form.
In your task, your new data model you might call places of interest (POI?). Each place where there is at least one record is a place of interest, and that place of interest has an ID. Places of interest are unique, no duplicates.
In addition you have a table of observations. Each observation has the flora name and other data, and one of the fields is the place of interest where that flora item was observed. So you could have ten records for orchids and each would be different, because it would have a different place of interest. At any time, for any place of interest you can generate a list of whatever was observed at that place of interest, and for any flora item you could generate a list of all places of interest where it was observed.
Such extractions of data are very simple queries that select what you want, and drawings can be dynamically created based on those, so you don't care about 46 collisions at the same spot, since your drawing dynamically shows you only what interests you, using a technique like that in the Example: Create a Drawing from a Query topic.
A small note:
Points copied from another drawing can be pasted into another drawing. Pasting them into the Project pane pastes a table (from which a drawing can be created if you want). See the Copy and Paste between Drawings topic for various copy/paste combinations and illustrated, step by step examples.
If I select a single point in a table and then use a map to zoom to selection, then it zooms out the whole world.
? Right-click on the layer's table, choose Zoom to Selection. That does not zoom to the whole world, just to the selected point. I'm glad you found a solution, but the above is so off that it merits some discussion.
A map consists of layers, each of which is a drawing, image, or labels layer. When you select a record in a table for a geom that is a point, there will be a corresponding selection in the drawing created from that geom.
To zoom to that selection, you have to right-click onto the layer tab for the drawing that is created from that geom and then choose Zoom to Selection. This is a good thing, because it allows you to have different selections in different drawings that may be in the map and then zoom to the selection for the layer of interest.
The above is a pretty simple deal, but there are, of course, ways to force unexpected results. I can think of two, one of which is simply inattentiveness that can happen to any human person, and the other is a result of one of those dark practices that can catch the righteous unaware:
1. Is only one record selected?
Ctrl-click in a table toggles the selection status of a record. It's like Ctrl-clicking a file in Windows Explorer to toggle whether it is picked or not. Toggling selection of a record with a Ctrl-click does not de-select all other selected records. When picking records out of a table, people sometimes select multiple records and then, because they see only one record selected in the view, forget they have selected others as well. [Personally, I think the Status Bar should show a "Selected: " readout when something is selected (but not show it if zero items are selected) in a table or window. ] To be sure you can always clear the selection with a Select None or a Shift-Ctrl-A shortcut.
Anyway, if you have multiple points selected and those are widely spread out, a Zoom to Selection might give the impression of zooming to the whole world. That's not wrong, it's just the system doing what has been commanded.
2. The Dark Side of the Force: Multipoints. The documentation discourages the use of multipoints for the very good reason that they often cause chaos. If the single record you selected is a multipoint, when you issue a layer tab context menu command to Zoom to Selection, you of course will get what you commanded, a zoom to a display that encompasses the entire multipoint.
There are times when it is easy to convince oneself that for a specific, limited purpose, using multipoints is a good idea. For example, when creating point equivalents to areas so you can have multiple geoms in the same record you might want to use a multipoint. The main geom is an area, another geom has the centroid of the area, a third geom has the bounding box of the area as an area and a fourth geom might have the bounding box of the area as a multipoint, with what seems to be a "point" at each of the four corners of the bounding box. Select that record and Zoom to Selection in a layer that is the drawing made from the bounding box multipoint geoms and you get a Zoom that displays the extent of the bounding box.
If the bounding box is big, it can seem you've zoomed to the whole world. There are plenty of military data sets, evolved from data originally created for very primitive hardware, where there are such multipoint artifacts.
It should maintain the current scale and pan to place the point at the centre of the view.
I respectfully disagree, as what you describe would be a "Pan to Selection" and not a "Zoom to Selection." The current command is really a "Zoom and Pan to Selection", but the Zoom part of it is an essential part.
Consider a thought experiment to see why:
You have a layer that shows tens of thousand points, say, fire hydrants in a big city, or all oak trees in a big mixed forest area. You have a view that shows a few thousand of the points. You pick one of them in a table, and then in the drawing you right-click on the layer tab and choose Zoom to Selection. If it pans while maintaining the current scale, you can get an imperceptible shift in the display given the very many points in view. In contrast, if it also zooms to center the selected point, you can see it better.


text: Hi! We are Bootyard! A Ruby on Rails Web Development and Web Design shop based in the Philippines. And this is our Weekly Roundup where we talk about the hardest problem we faced this week, the solution to that problem and the lesson we learned while solving the problem. One of my tasks in LinkHunter for this week is to upload list of links instead of keywords in creating campaigns. This new feature is user feedback. In current campaign creation, we are using keywords to find relevant websites. These keywords will be used by GoogleSearchEngineAPI to search and response websites with details like titles, snippets, URL, etc. that will be used to display in website list. In this case, instead of keywords, we will upload list of links in creating campaign, so this means we don't need to call the `GoogleSearchAPIEngine` because we have already website list. Now our problem is on how to pull the website details like titles, snippets, URL, etc. To solve this problem, we need the help of metainspector gem. So what is metainspector gem? metainspector gem was developed by Jaime Iniesta. metainspector gem is a ruby library for web scraping purposes. And response with its title, meta description, meta keywords, links, images, etc. The hardest problem that I worked on this week is to how to import an images of SEO Tools in SEOStartupGuide website. I added the created folder under the /spec/support/ directory. Added the code in the rake file. Then open a terminal, then under the SEOStartupGuide folder run: rake seo_tools:import Make sure to have a correct naming in images so that there will be no conflict when importing. For this week, I was working on a task for our company website here at Bootyard. Bootyard has a website and a Youtube channel that aims to help visitors know more about the company. The tasks involves pulling videos from our Youtube channel and then adding them into our website so that visitors can watch them directly from there. For this, I installed Yt Rails gem. Yt gem is a gem that helps developers easily add Youtube integration into their apps. This gem is developed and maintained by Fullscreen Media. Yt gem is very easy to use and well-documented and I was able to easily pull the Youtube videos from our channel and then add it to the website. This week, I was working on a client project HURR. HURR is startup based in the UK. The problem I faced was regarding payments. Specifically Stripe Connect. Since HURR is based in the UK, we can't use a specific Stripe Account which is the Express Account. What are Express Accounts in stripe? With the Express accounts, you can onboard users quickly so that they can get paid immediately. An Express account uses OAuth. So you just need provide a link to the user from Stripe and then Stripe handles all the necessary actions they need to do to get the bank details from the user. However, Express Accounts are only available in the US. Since HURR is based in the UK we had to use Custom Accounts. Which means, we have to: 1. Properly identify the location of the user or the country. 2. Create the stripe account using the API. 3. Do the identity verification using the Stripe API. That's it for our Weekly Roundup. See you next week!

The monthly update for our most dedicated supporters from Gidi Kroch
Model Partnership with Eshel Yerushalayim
Over the past two years, Leket Israel has worked closely with Eshel Yerushalayim, a nonprofit organization (NPO) that is part of the larger Colel Chabad religious charitable network, to carry out the Israeli government's tender in produce parcel distribution. The joint initiative targets 10,000 of Israel's poorest families, by providing the families with food parcels assembled and packed full of nutritious produce by Leket Israel volunteers and supplemented with dry good by Eshel Yerushalayim. Recently, the project has reached a point where Leket Israel's volunteers are also now packing dry goods supplied by Eshel Yerushalayim. Leket Israel's manager of the initiative, Avivit Gurevitz, is in constant contact with Eshel Yerushalayim's representative to ensure the project's success. In February, Leket Israel opened a new hub adjacent and working together with Eshel Yerushalayim's "Pantry Packers".
In addition to its joint work on the government tender, Leket Israel also maintains a longstanding relationship with Colel Chabad sponsored "Eshel" soup kitchens throughout the country including in Dimona, Ashdod, Yerucham, and Ramle-Lod. Leket Israel supplies these NPOs with weekly deliveries of fresh produce as well as hot meals sourced on dedicated meal collection routes from prominent hotel chains, businesses, caterers, and IDF army bases. The dedicated routes, involving an intricate network of dozens of suppliers and NPOs, use paid drivers operating leased refrigerated vans to transport the rescued food safely and quickly to benefit thousands of needy people daily. Rescued food collected on the routes is delivered either directly to local soup kitchens or to a distribution hub, often a large soup kitchen with the necessary capacity to store the food overnight in refrigeration for subsequent use on site the next day. A portion of the meals staged at the hubs are also typically reheated and delivered off-site to a range of other nearby NPOs.
In its attempts to establish a meal collection route in Tzfat, Leket Israel further expanded its partnership with the Colel Chabad group, by entering into an agreement with Eshel Binyamin Tzfat to act as a meal distribution hub for the region. Leket Israel was offered assistance by Menachem Blau, Eshel Yerushalayim CEO, to introduce Leket Israel and its successful record as an "Eshel" partner to help advocate for the partnership in Tzfat. Eshel Binyamin, an established soup kitchen in Tzfat, serves hot nutritious meals daily to 120 elderly, disabled, and poverty-stricken families at its walk-in location and regularly prepares dozens of food and care packages to help Tzfat's poor.
As part of the agreement to serve as a hub, Eshel Binyamin is in the process of renovating its kitchen in an effort to increase its capacity. Within 8-10 months it is expected to be able to safely handle an estimated 500 meals daily. To support the effort and cooperation, Leket Israel is providing the NPO with an industrial refrigerator and oven. At full capacity a route driver deployed to the Tzfat region can collect about 500 meals a day from a variety of sources including military bases, corporate cafeterias, and hotels. Of the meals, 120 would be used for on-site consumption and the additional 380 stored in refrigeration overnight, reheated the next morning and then distributed to additional sites. Locations for off-site distribution will include the Lasova after school clubs for children at high risk, public housing for the elderly, last chance high schools catering to the needs of at risk youth, and other NPOs serving those of extreme low socio-economic status.
Leket Israel also operates a prominent meal collection route in Jerusalem. However, after more than three years of successful development and expansion of the project's operations in the Jerusalem region, some logistical changes were made to help facilitate even greater efficiency and increase capacity. As a result, Leket Israel also recently entered into a new and promising partnership with Eshel Yerushalayim. In the spirit of the strong ongoing cooperation and success with Eshel Yerushalayim, not only in Jerusalem with the government tender project, but with its branches in other regions of the country (all receiving significant food support from Leket Israel), the Jerusalem NPO has entered into a mutual agreement with our organization to serve as a meal rescue hub for the region.
To ready its facilities, Eshel Yerushalayim invested in the renovation of their soup kitchen in Jerusalem. Leket Israel supplied Eshel Yerushalayim with two high capacity industrial ovens to facilitate the reheating of the approximately 600+ meals delivered daily by its drivers for both on-site use by the eat-in soup kitchen and off-site delivery. The off-site locations, some as far as Pisgat Ze'ev and Neve Yaakov, include shelters, residential centers for the elderly, last chance schools for youth at risk, and an additional soup kitchen operated by Eshel Yerushalayim. The food is rescued from nearby IDF army bases, prominent hotels, government offices, the Knesset, and the Israel Electric Company.
The next hub both organizations will partner with will be in Kiryat Ata, in the North. An agreement had already been signed and joint operations are planned to begin early April.
Leket Israel is most pleased with the mutual investment and significant leveraging of resources, as well as the model of cooperation it has established with Colel Chabad and its "Eshel" branches throughout the country. The Win-Win Situation created is based on firm social and economic benefits. Through food rescue, Eshel Yerushalayim can now purchase less food and reach more recipients, thus creating a larger social impact. Leket Israel has found a leading organization in Israel that can support the volume of rescued meals and a partner in other arenas promoting food rescue in Israel. The cooperation also illustrates how apolitical (nonreligious) and religious organizations can work together for the benefit of needy people of all backgrounds.

Jillian Bearden, first female transgender cyclist to ride in a pro U.S. peloton, emerges as beacon for other trans athletes
Stats on Bearden's performance before and after hormone therapy bolster case the trans athletes have changed more than their names
SALIDA — Less than three years into her transition from Jonathan to Jillian, pro cyclist Jillian Bearden has once again found serenity on her bike. Now, using studies and stats collected during her long career, she's helping prove that transgender athletes change more than their names, they change their biology.
Bearden has watched her performance ebb since beginning hormone-replacement therapy in 2015. As testosterone fades and estrogen grows, her fastest times on favorite climbs have slipped into what she calls "the gutter."
It was tough realizing her hard-earned power, developed over more than a decade of elite-level bike racing, was waning.

SEOUL, KOREA - Hyundai Motor and Kia Motors saw their combined market share in Europe fall slightly last month.
According to the European Automobile Manufacturer's Association (ACEA), Hyundai Motor and Kia Motors achieved a market share of 6.5 percent in Europe last month, down 0.1 percentage point from 6.6 percent a month ago.
Hyundai Motor's market share there remained unchanged at 3.6 percent, while that of Kia Motors fell to 2.9 percent in September from 3.0 percent a month ago.Hyundai Motor sold 45,140 units last month, up 5.8 percent year on year, while Kia Motors 36,553 units, up 4.0 percent year on year.
For the January-September period of this year, Hyundai Motor sold 326,285 units, down 0.3 percent from a year ago, while Kia Motors sold 272,600 units, up 5 percent year on year.
Despite the increase in their monthly sales, their market share in Europe fell since their sales growth was lower than the average growth of the European car market which was estimated at 6.1 percent.
In the meantime, Volkswagen sold 299,592 last month in Europe, enjoying a 6.2-percent positive growth. Peugeot Citroen Group, Renault, and Nissan also savored a positive growth of 9.9, 10.3 and 16.6 percent, respectively.

Given that they are two of my great passions, there was always going to be a Bread & Beer class when I launched One Mile Bakery Hale. This unique course celebrates both things, and explores the relationship between the two in a hands-on full-day class.
Dan Doherty, who blogs as Manchester Food Tourist, came along to the first Bread & Beer class and recommended it as one of his food & drink Christmas gift ideas for 2018 – read his review here.
Come and learn to bake with brewer's yeast, adding flavours from spent grain from a brew, hops and malt extract. We also make a gorgeous sourdough barm bread (using an authentic beer barm as a sourdough starter), and an ale bread using ale as the liquid and brew-able malted grains. This will be made with malted flour from Walk Mill. My own beer will be served as an option alongside wine with a delicious two-course lunch featuring stunning local, seasonal produce.
To book a Bread & Beer class, or any of the other courses, visit the classes page for dates, information and availability. All classes are reduced from £125 to £99 during January 2019, so this is an excellent time to get baking!

The Forbidden Billionaire: The Sinclairs, Book 2 (Unabridged)
- $11.99

Publisher Description
All of Jared Sinclair's wealth still can't ease the pain from his terrible childhood...or his guilt over a recent tragedy. Unable to forgive himself, the billionaire property investor buries his emotions, toughens his skin, and becomes a notorious womanizer, refusing to commit his heart to a woman when he's convinced she wants only his wallet.
But ever since Jared arrived in Amesport, Maine, he's been intrigued by Mara Ross, the petite and sexy shop owner who asks nothing of him. When Mara's store is purchased without her knowledge, she stands on the brink of losing her home, her livelihood, and generations of family history. Then the irresistibly persuasive Jared proposes a business deal to Mara...and soon draws her into a steamy, sensual affair, convincing her that he's anything but cold. However, when a revelation shakes Mara's fragile trust to the core, Jared must finally confront the truth about his past.
In The Forbidden Billionaire, J. S. Scott brings the next chapter in her passionate Sinclairs series to life.
Customer ReviewsSee All
Broody Jared is SO Much More!
Broody Jared is SO Much More!
This is #02 in the The Sinclair's Series.
HEA with No cliffhangers!
These are about the members of the Sinclair family. The characters are all involved in each others lives and stories so I would HIGHLY suggest you read them in order.
Content Advisory: There is sex, dirty talk, and lust fueled cursing.
Up to this point Jared has been Moody and Broody ! I had mixed feelings going into this story. On one hand he has been a d*ck and not yet redeemed himself for a HEA. On the other hand, I want to know what crawled up his bum and died because there has to be a story there. I was sure it was the after effects of his horrid father, but it turns out there is so much more!
Mara Ross is suffering from financial woes! Dolls are in her blood but not exactly profitable these days. The town doll shop has been in the family for generations as well as the apartment above it. Needed repairs have not been made in a long while and when she tries to get the landlord to finally fix it, she is informed that the plans are for destruction rather than updates. She doesn't have any family left to turn to, so she ends up accepting help from an unlikely source.
Jared Sinclair is number four in the Sinclair line. This makes him the the youngest brother, but still older than Hope. His story starts off rather dark, as he apparently has some guilt issues that are being remedied with booze. Now five years later, he finds himself obsessed with the little shop girl in the run-down house. He can't stand to see her hurt and offers to help with the situation. Of course he doesn't mention that HE is the landlord that she is having issue with. He follows her to the farmers market and discovers her other more flavorable talents. He recognizes this to be her ticket out of financial woes and his ticket out of guilt.
There are things that Jared did that I had completely contributed to another sibling. Maybe I heard wrong in the past 3 stories, maybe I didn't. All I know is that those things alone could redeem him, but it doesn't stop there. Deep down he is a family man at heart who truly loves his siblings and would do anything for them. He brings that truth and loyalty to the table which makes him worthy of his HEA.
Lots of side character action to get excited about if you have been reading or listening in order. Dante and Sarah have their wedding which Mara gets to participate in. Future heros and heroines are introduce. Beatrice is up to her match-making ways for she is determined to have the whole Sinclair clan hitched by Christmas. This series just keeps getting better!
J.S. Scott has made a family to fall in love with. I look forward to listening to Evan's story!
Elizabeth Powers narrates this story with great consistency. She does well with all character types.
Normal speed is fine, however I listened at 0.90x. It worked better for me.
Ebook obtained through the Kindle Unlimited Program.
Audiobook obtained through the Kindle Unlimited Program.
Another Winner from J S Scott
JS Scott's Sinclair books are fabulous and I love each and every one of them so far. If you want passion, hot Alpha male and HEA this is the book for you. This is another winner from JS Scott.
The Forbidden Billionaire is Jared Sinclair's story. The story opens up with a glimpse of Jared's past and why he is so distance about getting into a serious relationship, but Mara has gotten under his skin. Mara is the owner of a failing doll store as the store is falling down around her literally and figuratively.
Mara is down and out when the store, which is also her home, is burned down to the ground. Jared puts her up in his guest house, but she ends up more in his house or he is in the guest house. The relationship is based on physical attraction, but you can see that Mara is melting Jared's heart and healing his wounds. The reader is treated to passionate scenes, which JS Scott writes to perfection.
Love never comes without its problems and yes, Jared and Mara hit a bump in the road, however; the reader gets the HEA.
This story also gives a sneak peep on Evan's personality, which I can't wait to read about his past and future in the next book. You are treated to the gathering of the entire Sinclair's clan in this story, so you continue to see how their lives are progressing.
I highly recommend this book to readers who love romance, passion, erotica, alpha males and HEA.
Jared Doesn't Disappoint!
Jared has a dark secret and a lot of guilty. Mara Ross is about to lose her home and her store. Jared is drawn to Mara. Loved reading how these two lost souls find each other and heal each other. Mara helps Jared realize love is out there and she wants only him and not his money. Jared learns to let the guilt go and opens his heart to Mara. Read it!!

text: This paper investigates the potential to use adhesive bonding in high speed aluminum crafts with the purpose of replacing welding. By using adhesives, the higher strength of the aluminum prior to welding could be utilized thus allowing for thinner plating, in turn enabling lighter hulls. Avoiding welding would also eliminate the heat distortions that occurs today. These cost valuable production time and thereby increases the cost of the finished craft. The research question for this paper is formulated as:Can weight and/or costs be reduced by replacing welding with adhesive bonding?To answer the question a case study has been performed at Dockstavarvet where four different joints on the Interceptor Craft 16.5M have been redesigned using adhesive bonding instead of welding. A number of different adhesive types have been considered and Second generation acrylics, silicone, silane modified polymer, polyurethane and epoxy adhesives were evaluated in the text resulting in the conclusion that an epoxy is the most suitable adhesive. For this study the adhesive DP490 by 3M has been used to design the joints against Lloyds and DNV-GL rules as well as maximum shear stress in the adhesive. For each joint three different designs have been developed using FEA, allowing 20, 10 and 3 MPa of shear stress in the adhesive. FE simulations were also used to see the effects on the effective flange caused by the elasticity of the adhesive. This gave the result that with adhesives stiffer than 1 GPa the effective flange is fully utilized. To estimate the potential time savings two sample panels were manufactured, one welded and the other adhesively bonded.The result of the analysis is that in the best case, equivalent to the strength of the adhesive during the first years, around 15 % weight can be saved in the hull. However, considering long term effects such as cyclic and environmental fatigue the weight is instead increased compared to welded joints. It is also concluded that production time is saved by using adhesives and that this cost reduction outweighs the increased cost of the adhesive.

Demonstration of how name preview obscures file in list
Description of problem:
When you have a long file name, and a large number of files in a list, this issue arises.
Single click a file with a long name, and the name preview on the bottom of the window appears. Mousing over this preview, the preview expands to show the full filename. However, this obscures the last file in the list from being easily selectable, or even seen.
With shorter file names, when the preview name is moused over, the preview moves to the right of the nautilus window, avoiding the problem. With long names for files, this is not the case. This same behaviour for arbitrarily long file names would be preferred, even if it meant truncating the name.
Please see the attached screenshot for an example of what I mean.

NEWTON, NJ—Newton Police Chief Michael Richards announced his retirement on Tuesday after 30 years of service. He is set for his next endeavor, becoming the Fairgrounds Manager of the New Jersey State Fair Sussex County Farm and Horse Show.
Sparta Police Chief Neil Spidaletto has worked with Richards for years, back to when they were both detectives in their respective departments, Spidaletto said.
"Mike has always been a wealth of knowledge who possessed the right balance to succeed the positions he was placed in throughout his career. The town of Newton and the Newton Police force were fortunate to have Mike at the helm providing leadership and vision to his agency," Spidaletto said. "He exemplified progressiveness as a Chief and I have learned from him.
"Mike will be missed as our President of the Sussex County Chiefs association and for the many projects he led or were a part of besides the CLEAR program. Even with his retirement, I know Mike will continue to be part of our Law Enforcement community in this County and we welcome his input and his advice. I wish him well."
Richards began his association with the Newton Police Department as a police dispatcher in November of 1989. He worked as a Class II Special Law Enforcement Officer and as a Sussex County Sheriff's officer prior to becoming a Newton Patrolman in 1994, according to the announcement.
Richards earned the rank of Detective in 2000. From there he rose through the supervisory ranks within the department, becoming the Chief of Police in November of 2010.
In addition to his responsibilities in Newton, Richards has served in several leadership roles throughout Sussex County.
Richards leadership positions include:
- Sussex County PBA#138 President from 1999-2002
- President of the County Detectives Association from 2006-2009
- President of the County Police Chiefs' Association from 2017-2019.
In 2008, as a detective. Richards was honored with the Chief William Geffken "Detective of the Year" award for outstanding investigative accomplishments. He also helped establish Sussex County's 9/11 Memorial, dedicated in 2003 and the county's indoor firing range for law enforcement officers in September of 2005.
Richards' experience and expertise made him highly sought by service organizations in the county. He is a member of the Sussex County Public Safety Memorial Committee, as well as a board member of Ginnie's House Child Advocacy Center.
Working with the Center for Prevention, he helped create the C.L.E.A.R program in 2015, a leading county-wide effort to address the heroin/opioid epidemic.
In June 2019, Richards was recognized by PAARI with a law enforcement leadership award for his work with the Community Law Enforcement Addiction Recovery program.
Looking to the future, Richards will step into the role of Sussex County Fairgrounds Manager following the recent resignation of manager Kevin Mitchell due to personal health issues. Richards will be working with Mitchell to help make the transition seamless through the end of the year. He will begin in 2020 at full capacity.
This organization has always been important to Richards and his family. According to the release, his grandparents, Walter and Dorothea Richard, and the Richards family, were deeply involved from the days when it was held in Branchville.
His grandfather worked to establish the first permanent structure on the new grounds in Augusta, the big blue building now aptly named the Richards building, in his honor.
Richards spent his childhood at the fair each summer and then became a Fair Director a few years ago.
"Knowing the value that this organization holds for residents of Sussex County, he became immediately interested upon learning of the opening for Manager, as he wants to help ensure the continued success of this vital Sussex County institution. He looks forward to continuing to engage with the organizations and maintain the many valuable relationships he's made over his career while in his new role," according to the release.
He said he is proud to be a Newton Police Officer and proud to have had the honor of leading such a fine group of men and women. He is proud of their work in the community, maintaining and improving relationships with our citizens, our schools, the college, businesses and community organizations. He is also confident that this work will continue with the upcoming Officers prepared to lead within the department.

Liberate the sacred Buddhist site at Sarnath
- Target:
- The International Buddhist Community
- Region:
- India
- Website:
- www.bhpromo.org
The Archaeological Survey of India has usurped the rights of the growing International community visiting the Sacred site - hence depriving them of the right to worship.
According to the Buddhist Canon, the Maha-parinirvana-sutta, four sites have been mentioned as venues which should be visited by all who believe in the Buddhist faith. These places are: Lumbini, Bodh Gaya, Sarnath and Kushinagar. While Lumbini represents the place of the Bodhisattva Siddhartha's birth, Bodh Gaya is ancient Uruvela where the Lord attained Enlightenment, Sarnath is without doubt the hallowed grounds where the Blessed One turned the wheel of the Dharma in the forest where the deer lived in total freedom.
The serenity of the area made it conducive for him to preach one of the most original formulas which has survived for the last 2550 years and is still relevant today. It was here under the shade of a tree in the dense forest that he explained the Four Noble Truths and the Eight-fold Path to the five mendicants and thus settled the 'Wheel of the Law' in motion. And Kushinagar is the site which the Blessed One chose to be his 'final resting place' — the most befitting site for his 'Maha-parinirvana'.
It was actually the Buddha himself who set the course for the pilgrims to follow in one of his final instructions given to the Sangha only a day or two before his 'Great Demise'. As such, these sites most positively fall into a category far above the other venues where the Blessed One preached, lived or spent in rain-retreat. Visiting these four sites has always been the cherished desire of monks and laity alike as well as of those who, though they do not profess the 'faith', yet have a deep respect for the Buddha.
The dictionaries I have consulted in quest for the most appropriate meaning for the word Sacred have more or less defined it in similar terms. All have said: "dedicated to a god; connected with religion; safeguarded or required especially by tradition". Hence, Sarnath and its archaeological site fall into this special bracket of being a place that has special value for those who believe in the teachings of the Buddha; it is compulsory to visit it on pilgrimage and therefore is most definitely a Sacred Venue.
The trend to charge an entrance fee to Buddhist sites began in South-East Asia and it was only after India's immediate neighbour Sri Lanka made it compulsory for devotees to pay an entrance fee that India too followed suite.
But, there is a difference between India and the other Buddhist nations. None of them were ever visited by the Buddha. India is the only country where the Blessed Lord Gautama Buddha spent forty-five years teaching the Dhamma based on the philosophy of "peace, justice and equality among all beings". The area in which he preached the Dhamma is universally referred to as the Middle Land and comprised of kingdoms situated between the area of what is known today as Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and the Tarai area bordering India and Nepal. All the other Asian Buddhist countries have historical sites that date from the time of Asoka and much after. None of them have the pride of honour as India has. So when the Indian Government felt the need to follow the trend of its Asian neighbours, it needed to have defined its priorities properly. It should have sorted out the category of sites as: (a) Sacred, (b) Historical.
As all the other Asian Buddhist countries have only minor historical sites on which they levy an entrance fee, hence India too is free to do the same on its historical sites. Sacred sites are way above the others. They are the prime reason why devotees spend their time and money to visit this country. The least India should have done was to review its strict Archaeological laws (most of which were created during the era of the British rule in India and are obsolete and meaningless today). It should have liberated the site to the extent that pilgrims would not be charged an entrance fee, could perform their rituals over a period of days or weeks and go back home happy that they were treated with courtesy and given freedom to perform their rituals. For the remaining historical sites, the present entrance fee of Rs. 100 for non Indians is fine, no one is complaining. But in the case of Sarnath, what is being done at the moment is a sheer insult to the people who are referred to as Guests of India.
In the last century, Buddhism, because of its ideal philosophy has travelled from its Asian home to the Western world, where it has been more than welcomed. It has begun to be accepted as a philosophy still relevant in solving the maladies and complexities of the modern world. Hence all these people from all over the world now come to India in pilgrimage. They are without doubt the only lot who fall into the category of being the very best 'foreign currency spending' guests to the country. The least they expect is a little politeness and an opportunity to perform their rituals in a proper manner without hindrance from a Government Department.
To cite an example of how this liberty to perform their rituals without hindrance helps not only the country but also the local society, we need to examine the liberty given to the pilgrims at the Mahabodhi Temple, Bodh Gaya. Here one can perform prayer festivals and chanting continuously for a week or more without any hindrance or restrictions. Hence devotees stay there for a long period of time and whatever they spend goes to the local inhabitants who offer them services. This temple too is a sacred site and to top it, it has been enlisted by Unesco in its World Heritage list. Over the decades I have seen the hamlet, which was hardly visited by pilgrims in the past, develop into a mini-city, where in the winter months one has difficulty in finding proper lodging. On enquiring from the shopkeepers and hotel owners, one learns that the profit they earn during the winter season is more than enough to tide them over the lean summer months. While the Mahabodhi Temple represents the place of the Buddha's enlightenment, Sarnath is where he 'turned the wheel of the Law'. In Buddhist terms both have equal status, and pilgrims definitely expect to continue their rituals at this site too, exactly as they had done at Bodh Gaya. Unfortunately, this is very much out of the question!
Let's compare the two 'sacred sites'. At Bodh Gaya one can witness magnificent 'Prayer Festivals' attended by thousands of devotees. Here, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, His Holiness the Karmapa as well as a number of other outstanding Buddhist Teachers sit from the early hours of the morning till noon, and again from mid-afternoon till dusk, for a number of days in continuity, chanting or delivering discourses. On the other hand, all one can see at Sarnath are busloads of tourists being given a guided tour. At most they may spend an hour or two chanting. Nothing more than that. The site has been deprived of its spiritual relevance by a very short-sighted Governmental Administrative System.
The Sarnath archaeological site definitely needs a better deal. There are a few options that come to mind: (a) The Government of India should review its Archaeological Laws and make suitable changes in respect to its sacred Buddhist sites; (b) if such change cannot be done, then a Public Interest Litigation regarding the status of the site would allow the judicial system to offer some relief. However, there is a valuable point worth considering. The Constitution of India (Article 25-28 of the Fundamental Rights), as well as the Declaration of Human Rights, specifies that adherents of all religions have the freedom to worship unconditionally without any restrictions whatsoever.
If this article in the Constitution is considered relevant, then the Government of India, or to be more specific the Cultural Department and the Archaeological Survey of India, are without doubt violating the right to worship of the people believing in the Buddhist faith. This point needs to be challenged.
We demand that the Government reconsider its total dominance on the site and share administration by way of creating a Managing Committee comprising of Indian Buddhists as well offering the Buddhists pilgrims from all over the world the liberty to perform their rituals over a period of days or weeks and to stop charging an entrance fee.
As a Buddhist scholar, all I can do is to place the facts before the public. Action needs be taken. But who is going to help clear up the present mess and bring back some reverence to the site? Your signature and view will be valuable to us.
We, the undersigned, call for the liberation of the Sacred Buddhist Site at Sarnath.
We demand that the Government reconsider its total dominance on the site and share administration by way of creating a Managing Committee comprising of Indian Buddhists as well offering the Buddhists pilgrims from all over the world the liberty to perform their rituals over a period of days or weeks and to stop charging an entrance fee.

Hyundai is gearing up to introduce the all-new Palisade on November 28th, but that hasn't stopped the company from releasing a revealing new teaser image.
As part of the company's "Always Remarkable" launch campaign for the Palisade, Hyundai has enlisted South Korean boy band BTS to serve as global brand ambassadors for the flagship crossover. That's certainly an odd choice for an American-focused model, but the image does give us a better look at the upcoming crossover which will be unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show tomorrow afternoon.
As you can see in the image, the Palisade features a prominent grille which resides above a faux silver skid plate and plastic body cladding. While members of BTS largely hide the front of the crossover, the model appears slightly different than the purportedly leaked image that surfaced earlier this month.
In that image, the Palisade had a chrome grille surround and five horizontal bars. The official image, on the other hand, shows a mesh grille which is similar to the one used on the Santa Fe. It's possible the differences could be chalked up to different trim levels, but we'll have to wait until tomorrow to find out.
Regardless, the Palisade follows in the footsteps of the HDC-2 Grandmaster concept but adopts more conservative bodywork. The crossover also has pronounced wheel arches and a number of metallic accents.
Hyundai has been tight-lipped on specifics, but the automaker has already confirmed the Palisade will have "commodious cargo space" as well as seating for up to eight people. The company has also said drivers can expect premium materials, intuitive technologies and intelligent safety features.
Full details will be released tomorrow, but Hyundai has already announced the Palisade will go on sale in the United States next summer.

Hire company speaks out after 39 found dead in trailer
A hire company has said it is "shellshocked" and "gutted" after 39 Chinese people[1] were found dead in one of its trailers. A spokesman for Global Trailer Rentals Ltd (GTR) confirmed it owned the part of the lorry which was found on an industrial estate in Grays, Essex, on Wednesday containing the bodies of the eight women and 31 men. The refrigerated trailer was leased on October 15 from Global Trailer Rentals' yard in Co Monaghan, in the Republic of Ireland, at a rate of 275 euro (GBP237) per week, the spokesman told RTE News[2] on Thursday.
The company said it provided police with information about the person and company that leased the trailer, as well as offering to make tracking data available. Its directors said the company was "entirely unaware" the trailer was to be used in this manner. READ MORE: Essex lorry deaths: 39 found dead 'were Chinese nationals'[3]
Detectives have been given an extra 24 hours to question the driver.
A 25-year-old man, named locally as Mo Robinson, from Northern Ireland was arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in custody. Officers are to start the process of removing the bodies from the lorry – which has been moved to nearby Tilbury Docks – and take them to a mortuary so post-mortem examinations can begin. The bodies are expected to be taken in a private ambulance under police escort in several convoys to Broomfield Hospital in Chelmsford by the weekend.
Deputy Chief Constable Pippa Mills said the post-mortem and identification process will be "lengthy and complex".

The discovery echoes one in 2000 when the bodies of 58 Chinese illegal immigrants who had paid a criminal gang to be smuggled into the UK were found in a sealed, airless container in Dover. Home Secretary Priti Patel met with officers from the force on Thursday morning. Meanwhile, local dignitaries and police gathered to open a book of condolence.
Thurrock councillor James Halden said the discovery was "devastating" and it was a "very dark day" for the town. READ MORE: Opinion matrix; Divided views on how to end the people smugglers' death toll[4] The trailer arrived at Purfleet from Zeebrugge in Belgium at around 12.30am on Wednesday, and the front section to which it was attached, known as the tractor, came from Northern Ireland via Holyhead in North Wales on Sunday.
The lorry and trailer left the port at Purfleet shortly after 1.05am and officers were called around 30 minutes later after ambulance staff made the discovery at Waterglade Industrial Park in Eastern Avenue.

The deaths follow warnings from the National Crime[5] Agency (NCA) and Border Force of the increased risk of people-smuggling via Belgium and into quieter ports such as Purfleet. The NCA previously said it had a "greater focus" on rising smuggler numbers in Belgium after the closure of a migrant camp, and a Border Force assessment highlighted Zeebrugge as being among "key ports of embarkation for clandestine arrivals". The agency also warned criminal networks are suspected to have started targeting quieter ports on the east and south coasts of the UK as well as the main Channel crossing between Calais and Dover.
READ MORE: Essex lorry deaths: What we know so far as 39 bodies found in trailer[6] The day after the incident, a group of suspected migrants were seen being detained in Zeebrugge, with some of them seen trying to climb a fence into a compound attached to a truck company before they were intercepted by police.

Lorry drivers told of a "constant battle" to stop migrants trying to get into their vehicles. But port bosses insisted such trailers are "completely sealed" in the port so it was unlikely people were loaded into the container there.
But they said the cargo may not have been checked as it passed through Belgium to the UK.
Three addresses in Northern Ireland were searched on Wednesday as part of the investigation.
Councillor Paul Berry said the village of Laurelvale, near Portadown, where the Robinson family live, was in "complete shock".

In this world of mud-boggin', sand rails, school bus racing and, uh, Formula 1, a tractor race around Laguna Seca was inevitable. This was not a tractor pull, mind you, which is an entirely different thing. No, this was a tractor race around a road course, complete with a Le Mans start.
Rennsport is a celebration of all great racing Porsches, and Porsche tractors had not, as far as anyone knows, been raced before. But, if they raced them here, then having them in the paddock at the Rennsport Reunion made sense. So, they raced them. On two days, Saturday and Sunday, in the middle of the day, just after the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds roared overhead.
Yes, Porsche built tractors. Or, rather, had them built under license. The originals were designed by Ferdinand Porsche himself in 1934 at the same time he was designing the Beetle. It was called Volk-Schlepper, or People's Tractor, sort of like Volkswagen was People's Car.
As near as we can tell, actual production didn't start until after the war, either 1950 or 1953, depending on your source. The Schlepper was powered by an air-cooled diesel engine. Over the years, Porsche developed four engines, from one to four cylinders, and four models: the Junior, Master, Standard and Super. The Master was the one you'd want for racing. Various sources list it as having either 50 or 55 hp. Imagine that much power on the long front straight at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.
