Founded in 2006, the Doddington Hall Conservation Charity (no. 1114539) aims to conserve and enhance the natural and historical environment of Doddington Hall, Gardens and the wider Estate for the greater enjoyment and education of the thousands of visitors now and in the future.
The Conservation Charity's first project is to raise funds to save two sets of late seventeenth century Flemish tapestries that have hung in the Holly Bedroom and Yellow Bedroom at Doddington Hall since the 1760s. The tapestries depict 'Scenes from Rural Life' and 'The Trojan Wars'. They were already antiques when they were nailed to the walls of the bedrooms and part of a fascinating early example of a 'retro' or antiquarian decorative scheme. They are also rare survivors of cheaper, 'off the peg' tapestries of this period – the finer ones tended to be better looked after and have survived in much greater numbers.
Thanks to a ground-breaking joint project between Doddington and Lincolnshire County Council along with funding from the Heritage Lottery Foundation, The Mercers' Foundation, Dulverton Trust & Lincolnshire Community Foundation, The Laura Ashley Foundation, the Veneziana Fund along with numerous local individuals and groups, the Holly Bedroom tapestries were taken down, cleaned and conserved before being finally returned to the walls in June 2016.
The project was made possible with support from students and staff at the University of Lincoln's conservation courses, and Bishop Grossteste's Heritage Education course. Many of the conservators who have worked on the project are alumnae of Lincoln University.
The conservation of the Yellow Bedroom tapestries is now being carried out in the Drawing Room of Doddington Hall. This allows visitors to see and learn about the conservation project first-hand. To visit the hall and see the conservation in action, please check the Opening Times and Admissions page for seasonal opening hours.
The conservators have written a series of blog posts about the work which can be seen here
Weekly images, videos and updates on the project can also be found on the Instagram page here
Follow us on the blog and Instagram: @conservation_at_doddington
Many thanks to our kind supporters for enabling us to carry out this much needed conservation work

The Swedes under Rehnskjold had not been idle. Reinforcements had been gathered from each garrison and force-marched to join the main army. Rehnskjold's force now consisted of 9 battalions of infantry in two brigades (Horn and Sparre) and two brigades of horse, (Krassow and Hummerhjelm). Although outnumbered the Swedes were the more experienced force and keen to avenge the check that they had received at Ogilvy's hand. Reaching the Russian position, Rehnskjold deployed his force with Krassow's horse on the right wing, then Horn's infantry, Sparre's infantry and finally Hummerhjelm's horse. His plan was to make a general advance, probing for a weak spot then use his horse to break the enemy line.
Above is an overview of the table before the action started.
|Menshikov's cavalry
|Repnin's brigade of infantry
|The Swedish foot prepare to advance
|Krassow's horse drive off the Russian dragoons
On the Russian right, Menshikov's dragoons had regained the initiative. Recovering from their initial combat with their Swedish opponents, they advanced against the Taube and Skansa regiments. Once again the Semyonovsky regiment provided supporting fire and this helped the Sibersk Dragoons overcome the Skansa regiment and drive from the field. An indecisive melee between the Taube and Czarinski regiments resulted in both withdrawing disordered. A Russian advance against the Swedish left wing seemed a realistic prospect. Ogilvy decided that he should commit his Horse Grenadiers to help Densov drive off Krassow's horse and thereby relieve the pressure on his left. His confidence had been boosted when the 1st battalion of the Smolensk regiment had delivered a deadly volley to drive back the Swedish Grenadier battalion in disorder, just as it prepared to charge.
|The infantry prepare to charge
|Artillery support can prove decisive
On the Russian left, Ogilvy's Horse Grenadiers had, by their presence, caused Krassow to pull back his leading regiments. Sensing the opportunity for an attack, the Horse Grenadiers moved forward, but in doing so exposed their flank to Ducker's regiment of horse. They charged forward anticipating an easy victory. However, against the odds, the Russians held their ground and drove off their opponents. With Denisov's dragoon regiments still attempting to recover from their earlier drubbing, Schlepin ordered 1st battalion Tula to advance and drive off the Swedish horse with musketry volleys. Meanwhile Schlepin's remaining battalions were beginning to waver under the unrelenting pressure from the Swedish foot. Rostov's brigade were ordered forward to support them, but all these battalions were untried new recruits.
|The Horse Grenadiers charged in flank
|Sparre's infantry press on
|Hielm strike home
This was a nicely balanced game. When we broke off for lunch, it seemed as if the Russians, having weathered the initial Swedish attack, had the advantage. However when we resumed and the Russian lines became more disordered, the command structure began to break down and the Swedes regained the initiative.
The wider frontage (fighting across the table, rather than along its length) meant that artillery did not become too powerful. Unfortunately this also meant that there was not the same depth available for retreats etc.

Big Cat Updates The best time of day for the Keepers to see Kewlona bobcat is breakfast time – look ...
Big Cat Rescue is Caring for Big Cats and Ending the Trade
Join us in the freedom fight for exotic cats! They were designed to live free; not in cages. The number one cause of abuse is the practice of posing with big cats and their cubs because it creates a flood of discarded cats that serve no conservation value and end up dead or in conditions that are often even worse. You will find us to be completely transparent in our values, care of our 60+ wild cats, and finances.
Big Cat Rescue Update
We are SO grateful and thankful for your continuing support of our cats and sanctuary!
2018 will go down in our history as the year our rehabilitation program for wild-born native Florida bobcats was bursting with bobcats – 12 total, including a record 8 orphaned kittens. We began 2018 rehabilitating and later releasing four adult bobcats (Cooper, Teuci, Aphrodite and Noel). In the spring we took in three orphaned bobcat kittens from two rescues and gave them names befitting St. Patrick's Day (Clover, Lucky and Shamrock). And this summer we rescued five more orphaned kittens from four separate rescues and gave them patriotic names (Alpha, Bravo, Echo, Foxtrot and Tango). As of Feb. 2019, all but three of the 12 have completed our rehabilitation program and been released back into the wild to live free…where they belong. We hope to release Alpha, Bravo and Tango early next year.
This year we will put your year-end donations to good use for our rehab bobcats. Florida is very hot and humid so we would like to purr-chase a number of shade trees to go around the perimeter of the two newest rehab enclosures as well as around our rehab recovery building (where injured bobcats recover after surgery).
Thank YOU so much for your amazing support of our sanctuary and cats! It is only because of your financial support that we can continue to rescue abused, neglected and abandoned exotic cats and rehabilitate injured and orphaned wild Florida bobcats.

Sit-in at Quinn Group HQ
QUINN Headquarters in Derrylin was taken over by Quinn employees, business people, local clubs and groups yesterday morning (Tuesday, April 26) following a protest at the site.
QUINN Headquarters in Derrylin was taken over by Quinn employees, business people, local clubs and groups yesterday morning (Tuesday, April 26) following a protest at the site.
"We are here today to look after the property of it's rightful owner until he returns," spokesperson for the Cavan -Fermanagh- Leitrim Border Area Community Action Group, Pauric Donohoe told the Leitrim Observer yesterday afternoon.
By Fiona Heavey
The new action supporting growth and job retention in the Quinn group organised a protest outside of Quinn Headquarters yesterday morning but it took an unexpected turn when the large group of over 700 protesters took over the Quinn Group Headquarters with a sit in.
Proprietor of Supervalu stores in Ballinamore, Ballyconnell and Centra in Belturbet, Pauric Donohoe told the Leitrim Observer, "It is customary in this area for the people to stand by their neighbour when evicted." He said they will not leave the building until Sean Quinn tells them to. He said the group were not impeding any work at the group and by lunchtime yesterday "nobody has told us to go." Mr Donohoe said "we have the support of the staff." When asked how long the sit in could last, Mr Donohoe told the paper "it could be days." He said "we have a legitimate reason to be here."
The organisers had prepared a letter which they wanted to hand into the new directors on their first day in the group, they entered the Headquarters followed by the large crowd. The directors were not there and the security men asked to be allowed out unharmed and they were brought out. The group went on to set up a sit in and many group employees did not return to work but stayed in the building.
In a statement to the paper, the group said they "demand that Quinn management be reinstated to ensure local commitment and for Quinn Insurance to be retained with the Quinn group and operated as detailed under the Quinn Proposal."
"We want Anglo out. We want the bondholders to restructure the Quinn debt as per prior agreement," they stated. The group want to retain the jobs in the Quinn Group, the creation of more jobs as per the Quinn proposal, repayment of the Quinn debt in full and the preservation of the local communities.
The group had earlier pledged to organise a "series of protests" over the coming weeks "about the injustices being perpetrated on this area and about the threats to our economy and our communities as a result of this ill considered action." Reports of power outages and disruption to computer services at the Quinn Group has impeded normal business at the various sectors of the Quinn Group over the past week.

Holi-The Festival of Colours
The main day, Holi, also known as Dhulheti, Dhulandi or Dhulendi, is celebrated by people throwing colored powder and colored water at each other. Bonfires are lit the day before, also known as Holika Dahan (burning of Holika) or Chhoti Holi (little Holi). The bonfires are lit in memory of the miraculous escape that young Prahlad accomplished when Demoness Holika, sister of Hiranyakashipu, carried him into the fire. Holika was burnt but Prahlad, a staunch devotee of god Vishnu, escaped without any injuries due to his unshakable devotion. Holika Dahan is referred to as Kama Dahanam in Andhra Pradesh.
Holi is celebrated at the end of the winter season on the last full moon day of the lunar month Phalguna (February/March), (Phalgun Purnima), which usually falls in the later part of February or March.

Reserve Mortgage
A Reserve Mortgage is a secured overdraft facility on a Mortgage Current Account, where you borrow against the equity in your home. The Mortgage Current Account operates like a normal current account. You'll receive a chequebook, debit card and will also be able to set up standing orders and Direct Debits.
The amount of Mortgage Reserve that may be available for your use will be the difference between the outstanding balance on your Woolwich flexible mortgage at any particular point in time and up to a maximum loan-to-value of 90% on your property.
The loan-to-value on your property is the total amount outstanding on your mortgage loan at any particular point in time expressed as a percentage of the lower of the purchase price or our valuation of your property. For example, if the total mortgage loan is £80,000 and the lower of the purchase price or our valuation of your property is £100,000, the loan-to-value is 80%. In this instance, if 90% of the lower of the purchase price or our valuation of your property of £100,000 is £90,000, you could apply for a Mortgage Reserve of £10,000 (£90,000 less £80,000), or a lower amount if you wish.
The maximum limit we may offer you upon initial application is £20,000. Applications for a Mortgage Reserve are subject to status. A Mortgage Reserve is repayable on demand and must be repaid by the end of the mortgage term. A charge over your property is required as security.
For Woolwich flexible mortgages, interest is charged on a Mortgage Current Account at the Woolwich Standard Variable Rate except for Offset mortgages where interest is charged at the Offset mortgage rate. For Offset mortgages only, interest due on a Mortgage Current Account is charged to the Main Mortgage account (for interest calculation purposes).
All borrowing on a Mortgage Reserve is on an 'interest only' basis.
You can make payments to reduce the capital amount outstanding on your Mortgage Reserve at any time.

U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Deputy Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency David Rodgers has awarded approximately $6.6 million in competitive-selected grants for innovative state-level energy efficiency and renewable energy policies and projects.
The DOE-supported, state-led projects will focus on building utility-scale energy capacity from renewables and demand reduction, as well as advanced building energy codes.
DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy and Office of Electricity Delivery and Electric Reliability selected nine projects for states to create and implement a policy and regulatory framework that would enable gigawatt-scale clean energy capacity, whether through renewable energy or demand-side reductions.
While no cost share was required, state partners will contribute up to $1.8 million for the projects ranging from regional protocols to evaluate, measure, verify and report demand-side resource impacts to reports addressing key barriers and incentives for building transmission for renewable energy.
Individual state proposed projects for gigawatt-scale clean energy capacity are as follows:
– Colorado will develop a report addressing key barriers and incentives for building transmission capacity for renewable energy. The report will include a set of policy recommendations to address permitting, siting and related environmental issues that represent major barriers to the development of renewable energy and transmission expansion within the region ($397,000).
– Georgia will build on a variety of ongoing activities to create the infrastructure that will enable Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina to integrate clean energy supplies into their electricity portfolio ($257,459).
– Hawaii will establish a policy framework for renewable energy for the grid infrastructure using innovative demand-site management, electrical storage, smart-grid technologies, and electrical transmission and delivery technologies. The grid infrastructure will be specific to the island of Oahu, where over 80% of the state's population resides ($500,000).
– Michigan will develop statewide infrastructure to support Pay-As-You-Save and implement up to four pilot projects under this plan. The grant will be used to create the framework, regulatory environment and policies to make it possible to achieve at least 1 GW of new energy capacity either through demand-side reductions or distributed renewable energy. This strategy will provide consumers with the option to finance cost-effective energy efficiency and renewable energy measures through a tariff on their utility bill, using a portion of energy cost savings to pay for the capital and financing cost of improvements ($491,100).
– South Carolina will seek to overcome existing barriers for coastal clean energy development for wind, wave and tidal energy projects. The grant will be used to develop studies on transmission, resource validation and regulatory barriers. The grant will also establish the South Carolina Coastal Clean Energy Regulatory Task Force to create a regulatory environment conducive to wind, wave and tidal energy development in state waters ($492,648).

We are currently running two verticals; Health Innovation Program and Makerspace. Our objective is to provide an inclusive environment for our members to learn, collaborate and build their business.
The Health Innovation program at Impact Hub Accra is focused on creating a vibrant, pan-African health innovation ecosystem through a diverse offering of health-related programming, including hackathons, pitch competitions, and social enterprise acceleration. Led by director Emily Sheldon, the Health Innovation program partners with the government, industry, academia, and health sectors to improve health outcomes in West Africa through the lens of entrepreneurship.
In August 2016, the Health Innovation program hosted Health Hack Accra, the first health innovation hackathon in West Africa. The hackathon, which brought together over 125 participants, provided teams of 3-6 entrepreneurs 48-hours of work space, internet, meals, mentorship, and workshops to prepare their best solutions to major health challenges throughout Ghana. The Health Innovation team is currently incubating four startups from Health Hack Accra in the Merck Entrepreneurial Development Space (MEDspace), located at Impact Hub Accra.
Key partners for the Health Innovation program include Merck, Hack for Big Choices, the Yale School of Management, the Turner Family Center for Social Ventures at Vanderbilt University, Facebook, and more.
A makerspace is a 21st-century digitally-connected community workshop and lab open to entrepreneurs and anyone interested in learning, designing and making together in a collaborative environment.
They complement Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM) fields to drive innovation and support entrepreneurship through new product development.

As important as the project content are the relationships and collaborative precedents being set. In all of our activities, the Center for Rural Partnerships has this question in mind: how can we, as an outreach instrument of Plymouth State University, cultivate the kinds of collaboration and brave discourse that will facilitate the effective use of our combined assets?
Though ready cash is always a challenge for a public institution, PSU is deep in other kinds of resources. Part of our mandate is to make these resources available to our regional constituencies. Pretty words, but meaningless unless we can do so in ways that have meaning and value for the region we serve. The relationships we develop as part of the Coös County Outreach Initiative help us be better responders by providing insight into what is actually wanted and needed by community partners.
CCOI is intended to be, among other things, a departure from the classic model of university-community engagement. Instead of marching in with an agenda, even a really well-intentioned one, our mission is to be alert to critical needs and aspirations among established partners and those who are new to us, to assess how we might be instrumental–do we know someone with expertise in a particular area? have we got experience with the nuts and bolts of a specific process? can we make introductions between groups and organizations who share similar goals and have complementary assets? can we help outline what stands between a community and a desired outcome? can we facilitate success? In other words, our operating posture is: how can we help?
To date, CCOI has been a live learning lab for the Center as we grow to embody the mission of the University, as well as our personal aspirations. Through its successes, as well as the places where we didn't quite hit the target, we have come to understand our capacities, potential, and strengths more clearly. The Center's first five years have been identity-challenging and identity-shaping. Nowhere is this more evident than CCOI.
Amid these pages, you will see plain descriptions of our efforts to date, as well present plans and future visions. We appreciate your interest and look forward to your feedback!

"I feel that without cultural hybridization, the world we live in would not be anywhere near as interesting and integrated as it is today. By studying this phenomenon through iconography and material culture we can better understand how the melting pot of cultures from Europe, Africa and Asia shaped modern day Brazil as well as other countries worldwide."

I teach art classes to kids during the summer from my studio. Last week I had this really talented boy Lex, take one of my camps for the first time. He just summers down here and when he and his mom came in she asked him to tell me about his "Mom Mom". He went on to tell me she is a professor at The University of The Arts. I told him that was so cool, as it was where I received my Masters Degree in Art Ed. His mom said they knew that as they read my bio, and told me her name is Barbara Suplee.
There are maybe 3 teachers in my college past that I remember (meaning made an impact on me, I have a select memory); Michael Kendall, color theory teacher at Montclair (deceased), Susan Rodriguez, U of A and Barbara Suplee, U of A . So this was a "cool" moment, It really made my day.
Lex knew his art, styles, mediums, and that impressed me. He also shared that Mom Mom was taking him to Europe to visit Le Louvre. Nothing makes me happier than hearing that a child is being taken to any museum let alone Paris. I am going off subject but, the greatest education is found in experience not just from a history book.
That last day of camp, as Lex got out of his mom's car, an older woman got out of the passenger side. I thought to myself, perhaps it's Barbara? Sure enough it was. I hugged her and of course knew she didn't remember me, but claims she did… I do that too, with this memory. No teacher really remembers every kid… Maybe Ted (but i'll write about him at a later date).
That "cool" factor was over the top at the moment, my favorite university and one of my favorite professors walking into my studio, taking the time to float my ego. We chatted a bit and I was so thrilled. Class went on and when Lex was leaving he gave me a little hug and whispered, "You were the best art teacher I ever had." And I responded, "Well that's cause your Grandma taught me so well."
Bon Voyage Lex and family! Enjoy the forever life changing experience The Louvre will have on you. May you teach someone the love of culture one day and may they forever be grateful for you as well.

Drinking heavily
As anyone who's suffered a hangover knows, alcohol doesn't do your body any favors. It's particularly rough on your complexion. Heavy drinking causes dehydration, which can lead to dullness, wrinkles and dry skin. It's also may trigger flare-ups of skin conditions such as acne, rosacea, eczema and psoriasis. In some people, alcohol dilates the tiny blood vessels near the skin's surface, creating a flushed appearance. And it robs the body of vitamin A, which helps the skin renew and repair itself [source: Magee] through the production of collagen. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, women should drink no more than one alcoholic beverage per day, while men can consume up to two drinks [source: U.S. Department of Agriculture].

Four pregnancy birthing ball exercises
Got a birthing ball but no idea how to use it? We've got four exercises to ease back pain and tension
Birthing balls are great for pregnancy, as long as you know what to do with them. In fact, doing just a few birthing ball exercises every day can be enough to alleviate pregnancy back pain, relieve upper body tension and generally leave you feeling a whole lot better.
Pregnancy and post-natal fitness expert Dr Joanna Helcke shows us four moves that can help:
Seated waist twist
This is both a postural and mobility exercise, keeping the spine nice and supple all whilst helping to promote strong posture and an opening out of the chest area.
In pregnancy, posture is greatly affected by the increasing weight of the bump, often causing the shoulders to round forwards and this exercise counters this.
The rotational element also helps with stiffness in the back – a common problem as the bump grows and movement becomes more restricted.
Child's Pose
Child's pose is a deeply relaxing position to be in but as the bump grows in pregnancy it becomes hard – or even impossible – to perform this exercise with hands on the floor.
Placing the hands on the birthing ball allows for that extra space needed by mums-to-be all whilst relieving any build-up of tension through the back, neck and shoulders (all common during pregnancy).
Postural strengthener
The resistance band lateral pull down is another fantastic exercise for encouraging good posture in pregnancy, countering the effects of a heavy bump and, in turn, staving off pregnancy aches and pains.
This exercise does all the right things for pregnancy: it opens out and releases tension in the chest area all whilst tightening and strengthening postural muscles in the back.
Seated rotation
Another excellent exercise for maintaining spinal mobility in pregnancy.
One of the key effects of a growing bump is a general lack of mobility throughout the back and a reduction in range of movement makes one more prone to injury.
So an exercise such as this one – done gently and within each person's range of movement – is the perfect antidote.
