As the core framework of these beds is made from the best-quality solid hardwood, its body is highly sturdy and durable. Moreover, the softly cushioned upholstery protects the structure from any exertion that can cause breakage. The fabrics used in upholstering the surface are strong enough to tear apart easily. Besides all this, cleaning these beds is quite trouble-free as timely dusting or using your vacuum cleaner is enough to keep them in proper condition.
Material choice is exceptionally important and can be the final touch in the overall design of your room. Cotton is the most common choice and keeps you cool during the summer months and warm during the winter months. The benefit is that cotton is breathable.

9. Clemson: I'm taking a closer look at them tomorrow but so far, they're one of the more pleasant surprises on the season. We've been down this road before, though. Will this year be different? We'll see.
8. Oklahoma: Lost at West Virginia last night but there's no shame in that. Should have been a good experience for the young team. Wouldn't surprise me if this is the high point of the year for them.
7. Kansas: Arguably the most maddening team around. Personnel issues make it difficult to gauge them.
6. West Virginia: They are off to a nice start in the Big XII. They play an exhausting style. I wonder if that doesn't catch up to them as league play rolls on.
5. Virginia: Barf
4. Purdue: The numbers absolutely love the Boilermakers and given the weakness of the Big 14, they'll be highly rated by the numbers all year. Good test at Michigan on Tuesday. They're a decent favorite on the road over what might be the 3rd or 4th best league team.
3. Texas Tech: The Red Raiders are a damn fun team. They got their first ever win over Kansas at the Phog this past week. Schedule doesn't slow down as they travel to OU on Tuesday and then host West Virginia on Saturday.
2. Villanova: Defensive issues have cropped up. Worth keeping an eye on.
1. Michigan State: As of now, they're the prohibitive favorite to win it all.

This is a 6 minute read.

As a guide to vocabulary and why it matters this book could hardly be bettered. Although relatively short, it packs in a lot of detail. It's written from the point of view of a teacher of English, a perspective that informs much of the commentary despite an attempt to embrace other subjects as well. I'm going to review the book in terms of its usefulness for the teacher of Computing, even though it wasn't intended as such. My reasoning is that a book about vocabulary ought to be applicable to any subject.
Quigley makes the case for teaching vocabulary very well. He points out, in a very visual way, how not being familiar with just a few words in a paragraph can render the whole text — and therefore the entire lesson — incomprehensible. It turns out that in academic subjects pupils need to be familiar with at least 95%, and preferably, 98%, of the words presented to them in order to be able to infer the meaning of the paragraph. He states that pupils need to leave school with a vocabulary of at least 50,000 words, and that the vocabulary gap — the difference between the number of words known by some pupils compared to others, — is correlated with poorer life chances on a range of measures. Indeed, according to a study reported on in 2014, by 3 years of age, there is a 30 million word gap between children from the wealthiest and poorest families. (I did a double take when I read that. What it means is not that some kids have a vocabulary that comprises 30 million more words than other kids, by the age of three, which would be astonishing, but that by the age of three some children have had experience of 30 million more words than others. There's more information here: The 30 million word gap.
In this context, I don't think that Quigley devotes enough attention to the work undertaken by Bernstein in the 1970s on restricted and elaborated codes. Put simply, middle class families tend to use much richer forms of expression with their children (elaborated), for example with explanations of why an instruction has been given, than working class families.
Quigley equates elaborated code with academic talk, which suggests that pupils who have a poor vocabulary to begin with are unlikely to fare well in the school system unless something is done to address the problem. It's worth pointing out, though, that to some extent restricted code relies on shared values, so in some circumstances there is no need for elaborated code. One example might be a headline in a tabloid newspaper some years ago, "Mucky Jim" (cited by Keith Waterhouse in Waterhouse on Newspaper Style). This was clearly a reference to Amis' novel, Lucky Jim, and the newspaper in question obviously expected its readership to recognise that.
There is some good advice here. For example, the author says it's useful to focus on the etymology of words, as that can be a kind of shortcut to learning a wider variety of words.
"We may teach words like 'democracy', 'plutocracy' … but do we help students make meaningful, rich connections between those words?"
A fair question. Well, my economics teachers certainly did, and so did I when I was teaching. I suppose it's wise to be explicit about the usefulness of such an approach, but I like to think that good teachers will be doing it anyway.
More good advice is to be found in these pages. For example, I agree with the idea of developing 'disciplinary literacy'. Among the useful questions suggested to develop this is:
"What does a child need to know, do and understand to talk, read and write like [insert subject discipline requiring this knowledge, e.g. historian, computer scientist or mathematician]?"
I've always felt that my job as a teacher of Economics, and later of Computing, was not to teach Economics or Computing but how to think like an economist or a computer scientist. Apart from anything else, it tends to make learning the associated vocabulary easier because the specialised terminology is hooked onto concepts rather than presented as an abstract, disassociated, list of words.
Another good suggestion is to undertake planning with colleagues to identify the words that need to be taught explicitly. Indeed, while it's difficult to do these days in secondary schools because of the relentless focus on grades and the need to 'get through' the curriculum, I found that cross-curricular planning in this context worked very well. For example, words like loop, break, run, validation, error crop up all the time in Computing, but how are they used in other subjects? Where did they come from (etymology), and how did they come to mean what they do (for example, 'bug)?
On the subject of teaching Computing, Quigley is mistaken, I think, when he says that in Computing the perspective of the author becomes relatively unimportant. This would seem to overlook the fact that programming code is laden with the implicit biases of the people who write it. (I've already reviewed Weapons of Math Destruction, which explores this idea in great detail and in a variety of contexts, and very soon I will be reviewing Technically Wrong, which covers similar ground.)
There are some excellent suggestions, such as using cloze exercises, word-matching exercises and flashcards, to help pupils learn words. I wonder why word games were not included too: I have found word puzzles and crossword puzzles to be extremely useful in this context.
I also believe that vocabulary teaching can be aided by creating what I call a reading-rich environment, a topic I explored in Update Of 7 Reasons To Have An Educational Technology Library, but I didn't notice anything about this in the book, although it is implied.
Although Closing the Vocabulary Gap contains quite a bit of detail that is (I suggest) of dubious value to the teacher of Computing, it also contains a lot of detail that will be of tremendous use, such as the groups of academic words at the back of the book, the many suggestions given to help teachers teach vocabulary, and copious notes and references. My advice? Buy it.

Apple CEO Tim Cook Warns About Tech's Downsides
Apple CEO Tim Cook struck a worried but hopeful tone today in his commencement speech at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
He called on the graduates, likely including plenty of future tech leaders, to find purpose in their work by putting human needs front and center. But he also acknowledged society's struggles with technology's downsides.
Cook began his 20-minute speech on an upbeat note, describing the common ground between his company and the venerable university.
"MIT and Apple share so much. We both love hard problems. We love the search for new ideas, and we especially love finding those ideas, the really big ones, the ones that could change the world."
But Cook suggested that while MIT grads could expect to accomplish great things, a deep sense of meaning may be the hardest thing to achieve in the end. He described his own long struggle to answer the big questions: "Where's all this going . . . What is my purpose?"
Get Data Sheet, Fortune's technology newsletter.
"I kept convincing myself that it was just over the horizon, around the next corner," he said. But through 15 years of career advancement, meditation, and religious and philosophical quests, Cook said, "nothing worked, and it was really tearing me apart."
Cook found his answer when he joined Apple in 1998 under CEO Steve Jobs. He connected instantly with the company's uniquely clear and decisive mission.
"It was just that simple: serve humanity. It was in that moment, after 15 years of searching, something clicked," Cook said. To illustrate that mission and its challenges, he told a more recent story about rebuffing a shareholder who objected to Apple's unprofitable environmental initiatives. According to Cook, he ultimately told the critic that he "shouldn't own Apple stock."
Cook called on the new MIT grads to marshal their skills to help tackle issues from cancer to inequality to climate change. But he cautioned that "technology alone isn't the solution. And sometimes it's even part of the problem." Among the problems bred by technology, Cook cited were "threats to our security, threats to our privacy, fake news, and social media that becomes anti-social." He continued that, "Sometimes the very technology that is meant to connect us, divides us."
As an alternative, Cook reiterated Jobs' frequent dictum that technology should be guided by the insights of the humanities and liberal arts. "If science is a search in the darkness," said Cook, "then the humanities are a candle that shows us where we've been, and the danger that lies ahead."
Though the road ahead is fraught, Cook said he is "optimistic, because I believe in your generation, your passion, your journey."
Cook's speech wasn't all grim warnings and grand challenges. He also worked in mild jabs at both Windows computers and President Donald Trump, applauding MIT pranksters who had "obviously . . . taken over the President's Twitter account. I can tell college students are behind it because most of the tweets happen at 3 a.m."

OCALA, FL – Ocala Health announced today that Ocala Regional Medical Center and West Marion Community Hospital have been recognized as a 2013 Top Performer on Key Quality Measures®by The Joint Commission, the leading accreditor of health care organizations in the United States. Ocala Regional and West Marion were recognized as part of The Joint Commission's 2014 annual report, "America's Hospitals: Improving Quality and Safety," for attaining and sustaining excellence in accountability measure performance for Heart Attack, Heart Failure, Pneumonia, and Surgical Care. Ocala Health's hospitals are among 1,224 hospitals in the United States to achieve the 2013 Top Performer distinction.
The Top Performerprogram recognizes hospitals for improving performance on evidence-based interventions that increase the chances of healthy outcomes for patients with certain conditions, including heart attack, heart failure, pneumonia, surgical care, children's asthma, stroke, venous thromboembolism and perinatal care, as well as for inpatient psychiatric services and immunizations.
Both hospitals were recognized as Top Performers in 2013 for 2012 performance data on accountability measure data for Heart Attack, Heart Failure, Pneumonia and Surgical Care. Ocala Regional and West Marion are among only 712 hospitals to achieve the Top Performer distinction for the past two consecutive years.
To be a 2013 Top Performer, hospitals had to meet three performance criteria based on 2013 accountability measure data, including:
- Achieving cumulative performance of 95 percent or above across all reported accountability measures;
- Achieving performance of 95 percent or above on each and every reported accountability measure where there were at least 30 denominator cases; and
- Having at least one core measure set that had a composite rate of 95 percent or above, and (within that measure set) all applicable individual accountability measures had a performance rate of 95 percent or above.
"Delivering the right treatment in the right way at the right time is a cornerstone of high-quality health care. I commend the efforts of Ocala Health for their excellent performance on the use of evidence-based interventions," said Mark R. Chassin, M.D., FACP, M.P.P., M.P.H., president and CEO, The Joint Commission.
"We understand what matters most to patients is the quality and safety of the care they receive. That is why we have made it a top priority to improve positive patient outcomes through evidence-based care processes," said Randy McVay, CEO, Ocala Health. "Ocala Regional and West Marion are proud to be named among the Top Performers as we recognize the knowledge, teamwork and dedication of our staff and physicians at both hospitals."

I talk about how the Fed is making problems worse by selectively bailing out companies and I give examples of actual free markets. If the stock market is just guaranteed to always go up and guys like Warren Buffett predict the Dow is just going to keep going to 1,000,000, is that really a market – or is it one of the biggest long cons in history?

Research shows that poor password practices account for 63% of data breaches. A password management servicer is a third party solution that helps organizations mitigate this risk by creating a secure, master password for users throughout a network.
The Importance of Proper Password Practices
The 2016 Verizon DBIR report stated that 63% of data breaches were caused by poor password practices. Nearly 75% of online users depend on a single password across all their accounts. Stealing a user's credentials is the easiest way for hackers to open the doors to your network, and poor password practices can put savvy attackers one move away from doing just that.
Are your passwords putting your organization in this predicament?
You and your other users may think it's clever to use a loved one's birthday or other personal information as a password. But in reality, these passwords can be easily guessed and stolen. Meanwhile, we all know how frustrating it is to constantly create and remember new passwords, and how difficult it is to compel your team to do this when they're busy handling other key responsibilities.
There are countless articles and tips on how to create the perfect password. But rather than giving this crucial task to each individual user, implement a password manager that does the heavy lifting for you.
What Does a Password Manager Do?
A password manager is a third party that creates a master password for users throughout your network. Once users are in the system, they receive personalized access as determined by administrators and the password manager. Using a password manager mitigates the risk of your users trying to keep track of multiple passwords, or creating passwords that will be easily stolen. Password managers enable users to exchange the time spent entering, recalling or changing multiple passwords for a password they can trust.
Unique passwords are stored based on the policy of the password manager—important information to know when choosing which is best for you. However, it's common for password managers to store this information in a database or in a cloud that can only be accessed by top administrators.
What Is Using a Password Management service Like for Your Team?
In the nascent stages of password management, all current passwords are entered into the system. If, for example, a user has created a password for his email, that password is stored in the password management system. The next time the user logs into his email, he simply enters the master password, and the password manager automatically pulls up and enters the original email password. When users need to create a new password, they simply use the master password, which in turn automatically generates a unique password that cannot be "guessed" by hackers. Users can enter the master password on their smartphones, home devices or on the go—a major perk for today's increasingly global workforce. This process can be even simpler if your password manager is installed as a browser plug-in.
Administrators do not have to be tech-savvy in order to use and make changes to the password manager. Most interfaces have been designed to be user-friendly, and customer service representatives can guide administrators through changing master passwords or restricting information.
More cyber security Advantages of Password Management service
But password creation isn't all that a password manager does. It's only the beginning. A password manager can also help your organization:
- Automatically update data across the network
- Control distribution of password and information sharing
- Require that passwords are created according to best practices (passphrases, complex passwords, etc.)
- Identify current passwords that are too similar or too simple
- Alert users of compromised websites or accounts—and change passwords within minutes
- Provide optional two-factor authentication for added security
- Store important information and documents such as credit card numbers, software licenses and photos
A password manager minimizes the time and effort of keeping your network safe. If you're not using a password manager yet, it's time to explore how this tool can help your users access all the information they need to be productive—without the hassle or responsibility of remembering and creating multiple hacker-proof passwords.

Art can have its own voice: an active or a passive voice. The difference in voice in language is determined by subject of sentence. If it performs the action it is active and if it receives the action, then it is passive. Did you eat it (Active) or was it eaten by you (Passive). The issue is how the action occurs.
If a painting has an active voice it can be found in the same way. What is the subject of the painting and does it make the people who view it want to stand and look longer, as compared to a passive voice which evokes just a shorter look.
Bold textures, vivid colors and strong contrasts, like those found in oil painting, present active subject areas. Smoother textures, more neutral colors, and less bold colors all create relationships that express passive areas.
Sometimes a painting is either all active, or all passive, but sometimes an artist may blend and present two types of expressions in the same work. It is tempting to take a quite peaceful setting and add something bold.

This Advent, I cannot help but think of Bain when I read daily devotionals about waiting. From Easter until now, that's almost all we've done is wait. Wait for results, appointments, lab works, surgery, and a final answer. We are now waiting for his next appointment, which we hope will finally provide answers. He's being tested for autism and other causes for his development reversal. After that, more waiting. In January we'll get the results. This Advent, we wait for the baby in the manger. This past year, we have spent our time waiting for results.
Emmanuel, God with us, is not something we've had to wait for. God has been with us each and every step of the way. God has always been present, Christ has shown us hope, and the Holy Spirit has advocated for us. We've received many miracles and lots of grace. I have never had such a deep understanding about Advent or the birth of Jesus until I had to spend so much of my year grasping for hope. I honestly do not ever think I appreciated Christmas itself before this year. It's always represented family, giving, and the time of year that even the Grinches do good deeds. This year, it really is about Jesus.
It is about the hope for families like mine. It is about the joy we find even in treacherous waiting, it is about the grace and mercy we receive when we fall from hope's embrace. Jesus, the baby born to a lowly couple, denied room at the Inn. Jesus, the refugee. Jesus, the hope for mankind. Christmas has become so beautiful to me this year in its depth and texture.
My hope for everyone is to find the blessings in the waiting. Come thou long expected Jesus.
You can find more of Bain's story here.

Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time (B)
The era of the Apostles was no different from our time today. People then worshiped stars, the human body and the unknown. They worshiped stars and worldly things as if they were solutions to problems and difficulties. They worshipped the human body as if it were the only pleasure in the world. The worshipped the unknown as if it would protect them from their fears. Today people worship technology, progress, wealth and power as if they will stay forever in this world.
God showed Job that He (God) was always in control of all things and was the refuge of people who humbly come to Him. He questioned Job:
Who shut within doors the sea, when it burst forth from the womb?… I set limits for it…. and said: Thus far shall you come but no farther, and here shall your proud waves be stilled!
God still shows us the same condition. We can also ask ourselves related questions. Has money solved the problems about money? Love of money is still the root of all evil. Did any bailout solve the problems of the economy? Consent to abuse of money and bailout have heightened the abuse of access to money. Have the popularization of contraception and the pro-choice movement and the legalization of abortion solved the problems of population and the rights of women and of the family? Popularization of contraception has only fostered promiscuity, and abortion has degraded man and woman into instruments of commerce and sexual abuse. Has the legalization of marriage of the same sex solved issues on constitutional rights? It has degraded the dignity of marriage. Have wars solved differences among nations? They have perpetuated killing of innocent people, made the production of weapons a lucrative business and made the strong more arrogant. (And many others.)
At all times the Word of God brought about order into the world. At creation the Word of God brought life to the world and to man. The Word of God stopped Abraham from killing his son as sacrifice to prove His fidelity, and promised him innumerable descendants. The Word of God broke the bonds of the Israelites and brought them out of Egypt. The Word of God split open the sea so that the Israelites could be liberated from the Egyptians. (And many more.) The Word of God was born to us at Bethlehem, performed miracles, healed the sick, raised the dead and promised eternal life to all who would remain faithful. In the Gospel today, the Word of Jesus calmed the sea and calmed the fear of His Disciples.
In our highly technological society, we need to learn to accept our fears and limitations and our dependence on God. Progress, technology and science are not gods. They crash. But we tend to see them as OUR creation and we become very dependent on them. They have become so attractive that they become for us the modern temptation of Adam and Eve who were seduced by the devil that they would become gods. Progress and technology have become imbedded in our lives, just as we glorify advertisements, movies and TV scripts, and other campaigns that idolize them. And as they crash, we also crash.
God continues to give us opportunities to recognize Him as God and to realize that we are creatures and should be dependent on Him. He gives us all the opportunities in our responsibilities and relationships, in hardships and trials, in aspirations and inspirations. Just like the Apostles in the boat, it is going to Jesus that we discover the greatness of our life and the power of His blessings. It is in being faithful to Him, despite the difficulties we experience, that we can calm the storms of our life. It is in our love for Jesus as we see Him in the light of His revelation of the Father that we can walk according to His ways.
In prayer, we come to Jesus, and Jesus comes to us and works in us and through us. It is the school where we learn the beauty and wisdom of God's suffering for love of us. Prayer is an exercise that strengthens us in faith, hope and love for Him. Prayer also opens our hearts to the needy and the suffering, as they are instruments of our salvation. For at the last judgment, the Son of man will say: "Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me" (Mt 25:40).
We thank the Lord for the Eucharist, for He fills us with the power of His Words and the vitality of His Body and Blood, so that we are able to carry our crosses in life and face God in His glory.

Mars-Bound Instrument Detects Solar Burst's Effects
The Radiation Assessment Detector, inside the mission's Curiosity rover tucked inside the spacecraft, is measuring the radiation exposure that could affect a human astronaut on a potential Mars mission. It has measured an increase resulting from a Jan. 22 solar storm observed by other NASA spacecraft. No harmful effects to the Mars Science Laboratory have been detected from this solar event.

Trump Administration Ignores Pedophilia To Win Tax Vote
Trump administration officials have gone from bad to worse. In a vile partisan display, Kellyanne Conway, senior advisor to Donald Trump, expressed the White House's support for Republican pedophile Roy Moore.
Conway's shameful remarks were shared during the morning television program, Fox & Friends. When asked by one of the Fox hosts, "So, vote Roy Moore?" Conway replied, "I'm telling you that we want the votes." Without hesitation, despicable words came flooding out of Conway's mouth. She didn't pause to consider the implications or pretend she needed to consult an administration handbook on how to answer the question. Conway indicated that a tax vote win was more important than protecting children from sexual predators.
Conway instantly realized the severity of her error. She attempted (inartfully) to dance around her endorsement of the Alabama pedophile by deflecting to allegations of misconduct by Minnesota Senator Al Franken, but it was too late, Conway couldn't 'unring the bell.' Her infamous, "We want the votes" line was played on every news program the rest of the day. Despite the Republican Party already abandoning Moore, before Monday morning, the White House's position was a mystery. In addition to the national Republican Party, the Young Republican Federation of Alabama, and more than four dozen evangelical pastors have called for Roy Moore to step down.
From Republican leaders in the U.S. Senate like John McCain and Mitch McConnell to Attorney General Jeff Sessions, nearly every prominent Republican has demanded that Roy Moore step down. Almost every Republican that is, except one – Donald Trump. As Conway informed, for the Trump administration, earning a victory on tax reform supersedes past tribulations even when those tribulations involve pedophilia.

Must ... resist ... making "No. 2 if by sea jokes." (Somebody give that Associated Press writer a raise!)
An outhouse next to the home of famed Revolutionary War figure Paul Revere is being excavated, and workers from the City of Boston Archaeological Program are posting the results on Instagram.
They are working in the yard of Boston's Pierce-Hichborn House, built in 1711, next door to the Paul Revere House and once owned by a cousin of his. It's now one of the earliest remaining brick structures in the city.
No, the excavated space isn't full of what you think -- no centuries-old human waste has been, uh, flushed out. But diggers have found parts of colorful dishes, a broken clay pipe, 17th-century pottery and more. And if they do find any you-know-what, they could use it to learn about the diet and possible diseases of early colonists.
The mix of discarded items from different time periods tells the team the privy was deliberately filled in with "random yard debris" sometime after 1840. So what we think they're saying is that someone decided to take a dump -- er, make a dump, that's MAKE a dump -- in what had been a privy.
On Friday, the team discovered the privy wasn't as deep as expected, comparing the news to the 1986 moment when Geraldo Rivera opened Al Capone's vault and found it all but empty. That might sound like crappy news, scientists. Urine trouble? Nah, they still seem flush with enthusiasm.
But did the famous rider and silversmith actually use these facilities? Maybe, if only to get away from his many kids.
"Paul Revere might well have come over here for dinner and used the bathroom," Boston city archaeologist Joe Bagley told the AP. "He had 12 kids in his own little house next door. It's easy to imagine they didn't stay cramped up in there all the time."
Hey, there's more than one way to seek relief.

10/40 Coffee Makes the World Go 'Round
10/40 Coffee: Makes the World Go 'Round
There's nothing quite like living in a small town and those who live in sprawling cities just wouldn't understand the excitement that comes when a new place of business moves into town. The slower pace of life allows passerby's to gaze with wonder and speculation at what the new place will become or what the old is being transformed into. Just recently, a beloved clothing shop on our towns square, relocated across town and as the lights in the little old building went out, we all wondered what would bring it back to life. Each drive around the block, our community caught a glimpse of what would soon become 10/40 Coffee. Now, as you open the beautiful over-sized glass door, you step into a place renewed and you find yourself pleased with the opportunity to support local business while indulging in coffee that in more ways than one makes the world go 'round.
10/40 Coffee was created by a beautiful young woman named Keely Swift and co-owned with Micah and Autumn Tombley. Keely told me that she was inspired to name her new coffee shop, 10/40 Coffee, for the coordinates of the 10/40 Window. Don't worry, I hadn't heard of this either, so I looked it up and the name 10/40 makes perfect sense for what you find when you visit this coffee shop. I learned that if you were to draw a line on the northern latitude of 10 degrees and 40 degrees of the eastern hemisphere you find 90% of the world's most impoverished people and also 95% of the people who've never heard about Christianity. Keely is deeply passionate about this problem, both globally and locally. It shows the moment you walk through the door as your eyes are drawn to the paintings hung on the original exposed brick facade, paintings that have been created by our own local artists. As you look further, to the coffee bar itself, you see that the coffee provided takes things to the next level. Keely explains:
"Our coffee comes from a place in Jefferson City called Three Story Coffee. The beauty of this product is they take it a step further than the fair trade mark. They visit the farms and farmers themselves. This ensures not only the farmers are getting paid fair wages but also the farmers' employees are treated well, too.
We always have our house coffee on drip, but each month we pick a specialty drip from another country. The previous month's drip can be purchased by the pound to take home."
This month the coffee is from El Salvador. Customers are also able to participate in support by purchasing coffee by the pound to take home. As I tried the coffee for the first time today, I promise you it feels just as good warming your belly and brightening your day as it does knowing that your purchase has gone to good use. And, if your still hungry after you finish your coffee, be sure to have a bowl of soup (offered in a bread bowl if you really want indulgence), or a lighter option of fruit, ham, cheese, a crepe, or bagel. Take home a chocolate bar from Guatemala or try one from the well known sisters at A Beautiful Mess.
If you were to take a stroll around the city square you would see the places that created our little town. The places where our ancestors used to commerce, window shop, or socialize. To see it now, you catch a glimpse of our history and what home used to be like for the ones who lived here before us. At 10/40 Coffee you can create your own history or memories as you visit over coffee with someone you love, catch up with an old friend, or have a casual meeting with a co-worker. Do what makes the world go 'round in your own life, while supporting you own local community as well as the world outside your own door. We should all aspire to be more like Keely and do what we can to contribute both to home and nations beyond; economically as well as, spiritually.
Matthew 10:40 "Anyone who welcomes you welcomes me and anyone who welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me."
Be sure to check out Keely's blog to see more about her and her vision!

It's fairly easy to multiply two numbers that are close to the same multiple of 10.
The algorithm for doing it is called "Nikhilam Navatascaramam Dasata." It is part of a system of algorithms and mnemonics to remember them, collectively known as "Vedic Math", that was developed by Jagadguru Swami Bharati Krishna Tirthaji Maharaj in the early 20th century.
The easiest way to explain the algorithm is to give examples, and explain the algorithm along the way.
First find a suitable "base". Since 7 and 8 are both close to 10, we'll use 10. Write the difference between the numbers to be muliplied, and the base, off to the right:
Now add the difference between the one number to be multiplied and 10, to the other number to be multiplied. Pick either combination, because you will get the same result
Now let's try it with significantly bigger numbers, to see why this is such an advantage.
Since both numbers are close to 100, we will use 100 as our base. Write the difference between the numbers to be muliplied, and the base, off to the right. Because 100 has two zeroes, we need two digits on the right hand side.
The 87 comes from either 89 + (-2), or 98 + (-11). The 22 comes from (-2) x (-11). You can do this problem in your head. Let's try another one, to show when you need to pad the right side with leading zeroes:
The 95 comes from either 97 + (-2) or 98 + (-3). The 06 comes from (-2) x (-3). We need to pad it with a zero, because the base is 100 so we need two digits on the right-hand side.
Let's try an example where the numbers to be multiplied are a little bigger than a multiple of 10:
The 107 comes from either 102 + 5 or 105 + 2. The 10 comes from 5 x 2 (the product of the differences on the right).
Let's try another example where the numbers to be multiplied are on either side of a multiple of 10:
Uh oh, we have a negative on the right! Add it to the left hand side:
Let's try bigger numbers.
993 = 995 + (-2) OR 993 = 998 + (-5). 010 comes from (-5) x (-2) = 10, then padded with one leading zero because we need 3 digits because our base is 1000.
The method also works with multiples of powers of 10:
because we had to multiply 10 by 2 to get to the base, we need to multiply the LEFT SIDE ONLY of the answer by 2

Escorted tour | Food & wine | History & culture | Small group
Iberia is a peninsula shared. But it's not just Spain and Portugal that divide its spoils; east meets west in heritage towns and architectural statements while a varied past is complemented by a considered present, epitomised by the region's superlative gastronomy. You'll take it all in on a rural road trip that starts with the headlines – bookending nights spent in Granada and Seville with both the Spanish and Portuguese capitals – before moving onto the region's hidden gems. There's everything from Moorish mosque cathedrals to towns that perch precipitously on the edge of gaping gorges. Along the way, tapas lunches, olive oil tastings, castle stays and Jamón Ibérico samples will bring it all to life with help from your local guides.
Day by day itinerary
Fly to the Spanish capital where a private transfer will take you to your pre-tour accommodation. The rest of the day is free to relax or explore the city at your own pace.
Stay: Superior Accommodation, Madrid
Our road continues south across the vast plains of La Mancha, where Cervantes's Don Quixote jousted with windmills. We pause in Valdepeñas to visit a local bodega for wine and tapas, before continuing on to Córdoba – our home for the next two nights.
Stay: Hotel Carlos V, Toledo
Meals: D
Continue south across the vast plains of La Mancha, where Cervantes' Don Quixote jousted with windmills. You'll stop off at Valdepeñas to visit a local bodega for a wine and tapas lunch before arriving in to Cordoba. A thousand years ago, this city in southern Andalucía was the most important Islamic cultural centre in Western Europe, echoed today in its distinctive architectural style. Your home for the next two nights is right in its historic centre.
Stay: Casas de la Judeira, Cordoba
Meals: B L
On a walking tour of Cordoba's old town, you'll step back into the days of Islamic Iberia. The UNESCO-listed Mezquita is a particular highlight; at once a cathedral and a mosque, it's regarded as one of the finest examples of Moorish architecture, combining Islamic detailing with grand proportions. You'll then have the afternoon to explore at your own pace, seeking out hidden squares and local cafés, or pampering yourself at a traditional hammam.
Stay: Casas de la Judeira, Cordoba
Meals: B
Today you'll hold court with the two great women of Andalucía, Ubeda and Baeza. Termed 'Queen' and 'Lady' respectively by poet Antonia Machado', they come replete with spectacular Renaissance palaces and a centuries-old ceramics industry. In between the two, you'll pause to taste the local olive oil delicacies in a peaceful grove before settling in to your hotel in Baeza.
Stay: Hotel Puerta de la Luna, Baeza
Meals: B D
Your first stop today is Jaen Cathedral, with its towers set against a backdrop of bucolic hills and olive groves. After some free time to explore this charmingly compact town you'll then continue on to Granada, the last stronghold of the Moorish empire in Spain before it finally fell to the country's Catholic kings in the 15th century. You'll have two nights here to unravel its secrets.
Stay: Villa Onira, Granada
Meals: B
Intricately carved archways, lush gardens and lavish interiors that host brightly coloured tiling characterise Alhambra, a truly stunning Moorish palace perched on a hilltop just outside Granada. It's a tribute to the beauty of North African architecture and one of Andalucía's finest gems. You'll take the full morning to explore it before returning to the city centre for an afternoon free. Don't miss out on the cathedral or the chance to take some time out in atmospheric cafés, hidden among architecture that tracks the city's heritage.
Stay: Villa Onira, Granada
Meals: B
Turn east to pass through parched countryside and reach Ronda. This historic town enjoys a dramatic setting on the edge of a deep canyon, providing the perfect old town plaza frame for those pinch-yourself views.
Stay: Reina Victoria, Ronda
Meals: B D
Today drive to Jerez to visit a local winery with a private gallery followed by a tapas lunch and wine tasting. Later, we visit Seville where tonight we enjoy a traditional flamenco show.
Stay: Casas de la Judeira, Seville
Meals: B
Seville is your next stop, where you'll spend the night enjoying a traditional dinner and flamenco show. This famous dance with its bright costumes and evocative guitar music is a real south Spain icon.
With its rich history, Seville demands a full day. First, a local guide will introduce you to the city's main sites including the Jewish Quarter and its impressive cathedral. You'll also stop off at Europe's oldest royal palace still in use, Alcázar de Sevilla. The rest of the day is left free; perhaps search out Roman ruins, Moorish mosaics and classical squares, or take yourself on a tapas tour, hopping from bar to bar and sampling a new speciality in each
Stay: Casas de La Judeira, Seville
Meals: B
Seville/Sierra de Aracena/Estremoz
The city rooftops disappear as we head into the great outdoors. Our first stop is Ibéricos, a farm in the Sierra de Aracena and Picos de Aroche National Park where black Iberian pigs roam. After working up an appetite, we sample the famous Jamón Ibérico, before making a visit to Castle Vila Vicosa. We continue to Estremoz to end the day.
Stay: Pestana Pousada de Estremoz, Estremoz
Meals: B D
On the last day of your tour, you'll pause in UNESCO-listed Evora to take in its unique combination of medieval churches and stately Roman temples. You'll then finish among the terracotta-roofed history of Lisbon for the tour's end.
Meals: B

5 Questions with Giselle Au-Nhien Nguyen
We talked to Giselle Au-Nhien Nguyen, one of the first recipients of The Wheeler Centre Next Chapter Writers' Scheme.
Giselle Au-Nhien Nguyen is a Melbourne-based Vietnamese-Australian writer, editor and bookseller, and the Marketing & Communications Manager for the Feminist Writers Festival. Her work has been featured in publications including Meanjin, The Saturday Paper, Kill Your Darlings, SBS Life, Rookie and Frankie.
How did you first decide to become a writer?
There was never really a moment when I 'decided'—writing was just something I always did. My dad used to tell me stories he made up when I was a kid, and soon enough I was making up my own. I was a part of a program called Starfish in primary school that distributed magazines with writing by children, and I'd be so proud every time I had something included, or in the annual school magazine. After high school I fell out of it a bit even though I was studying journalism—I was a bit too self-conscious and hated everything I was producing— but eventually it came back to me, and I've been writing as a line of work for the last few years, both in literary and media spheres. It still gives me a thrill to see my name in print in publications I've long admired, and I think baby Giselle would be proud.
What project will you be working on, under during your time in the Next Chapter writers' scheme?
My proposed work is a narrative nonfiction reflection on questions of identity growing up in Australia as the child of Vietnamese refugee parents, and the tension between my privileged upbringing and my parents' disadvantaged background. I intend to bring together three separate lives—my parents' and my own—as I grapple with what it means to be a member of the Vietnamese diaspora in a privileged country, and my perennially changing relationship with family, culture and the concept of belonging.
What was your first response upon receiving the email confirming your acceptance into the program?
I was in Toronto and woke up to an email from Sophie Black asking me to give her a call. I didn't want to get my hopes up, but I've never done anything with the speed at which I put money onto my Skype account! When she told me the news, I was in disbelief, and still am, to be honest – I didn't at all expect to be chosen for the program, and I'm so incredibly humbled by it.
What will the Next Chapter mean for you and your practice?
The opportunity to have so much incredible support to develop my first full-length work is one I don't take for granted—it's rare for a writer to have access to funding and mentorship at this level, and to have been chosen from such a competitive and high-quality field is a great privilege. I'm excited for the many doors this will open for my career. At the moment I work part-time in a bookstore and freelance—the funds from this fellowship will mean that I'll be able to devote more time to my manuscript, as well as spend more time with my family for the research aspect of it.
What are you currently reading right now? Which books which inspire your work?
I'm reading Cheryl Strayed's Wild, which is a book that many people have recommended to me over the years. The way she writes about family, mortality and place is very poignant, and has given me some ideas for my own work. I read really widely for work and I find little pieces of inspiration everywhere, but THE book for me is Looking for Alibrandi – I first read it at fourteen and it turned my world upside down.
Other books that have influenced the shape of my work and practice include Maus by Art Spiegelman, Alice Pung's memoirs, Nadja Spiegelman's I'm Supposed to Protect You from All This, and more recently Vietnamese diaspora graphic novels like GB Tran's Vietnamerica and Thi Bui's The Best We Could Do. It's fascinating to me to see how different writers deal with personal and sensitive subject matter, and how they handle telling stories that belong to not only themselves, but those around them.
"I didn't at all expect to be chosen for the program, and I'm so incredibly humbled by it. "
Each year, The Wheeler Centre picks ten outstanding writers and gives them $15,000 to develop their work. They match them with a mentor and work closely with them on bringing their writing to life, connecting them with peers, publishers and readers.
The next round of applications will open in May 2019.
