When we sailed up the Brisbane River into Brisbane we were met by this little group of Musicians. So nice to be welcomed!
Brisbane is a beautiful city. We journeyed by water taxi from our ship up the Brisbane River beyond the South Bank Museum area and viewed downtown, beautiful homes, recreation areas, and other interesting sites along the River. The exit from the river at the South Bank area featured a beautiful array of multicolored Bougainvillea and walk- way of tropical plants. The South Bank Park area is a beautiful in which to stroll. We visited the Aboriginal Museum and walked through the library. The buildings are open air, and very inviting. All over the city the bougainvillea were proudly displaying their many colors and in the Park they are growing in a beautiful archway. Beautiful birds could be see and heard all around. One interesting bird that we saw all over South Bank and at the Brisbane Museum trying to eat food off picnic tables is a type of Australian White Ibis, a large pest to shoo away from your picnic table.

Apps make our lives easier. We now have AI personalities that connect with apps so we don't have to touch a button. There are apps for almost everything!
Here is a list of 5 interesting app ideas we wish someone would create.
1. Is It Worth It?
What the app would do: Tells you if you should get out of bed for a social event.
You know that thing you said you'd go to two weeks ago that you're now dreading? This app takes into account the people going, the weather, the WiFi availability, and your energy level.
Based on that complex algorithm it tells you if your presence and energy is worth it. It'll also give you an anxiety prediction if you don't go.
The anxiety calculation calculates how many times you've canceled in that friend group. If it's a high anxiety prediction, the "Is It Worth It" score goes up.
2. Just Me?
What the app would do: Tells you if you had a unique thought.
Have you ever been in the shower or woken up with a thought you think is unique? There are seven billion people in the world, so it's probably not.
However, this app tells you if anyone has ever written it down or expressed it in general. You'd type your idea in a few similar but alternating phrases and it searches the internet.
Then it would give you a yay or nay based on the results.
Congrats! You're only one of three people who have had this thought. You're a little unique!😛
3. Bring Me
What the app would do: Connects you with local people who are traveling to bring you back unique items.
There are bakeries in Paris worth teleporting to. Unfortunately teleportation isn't real yet.
This app would connect you with someone who lives near you, but is traveling to another location or abroad.
It would connect the two of you and you can ask them to bring you home some food item, unique piece of clothing, a type of tea, or really anything legal to transport.
The app then calculates a midway meetup point for you to meet them once they're back home.
4. Should I Stop?
What the app would do: Tells you if you're arguing about something you have no knowledge of.
When you get in an argument just turn on "Should I Stop". The advanced speech recognition does a real-time relevancy search for your argument.
Based on the correctness of what you're saying or the relevancy of your argument, it tells you to stop or not.
You're getting over your head in this argument – you should stop. It would then give you a few phrase suggestions to end the conversation with dignity.
5. Fake Mom
What the app would do: Practices hard conversations with your mom.
Pick your mom with FM's personality picker: choose her argument type, political views, etc.
Once you build your fake mom, text her conversations you need to have in real life. "Mom, I have two kids on the way and I ghosted their moms".
Fake mom then gives three likely responses to your confession, helping you prepare for the conversation in real life.
Apps Ideas That Need to Be Made
Alright. We have to admit that some of these apps ideas might be a little over the top – like the idea of creating an AI mom for Fake Mom.
Other app ideas, like Bring Me, are very practical and realistic. You could easily make that app idea a reality.
However, with hard work and determination, all of these apps ideas are truly possible.
The only question is, will you be the one to put the hard work in?
If you would like to discuss an above app idea or you have your own amazing app idea you'd like to discuss – contact us here today!

Stick Dinner ( スティック゠ディナー, Sutikku Dinā) is an Amateur Hunter who is hired to survey the country of Kakin Empire with Kite. He comes from the same town as Spinner. Stick is in charge of dinner. According to Kite, he and his fellow Amateur Hunters in the former Kakin Empire Wildlife Exploration Team have excellent potential to be Pro-Hunters.[1]
Stick sports a big afro, while wearing a white and blue sleeved T-shirt with a Jenny symbol on the top left side of the shirt and red pants with a pattern of stars going down the sides.
Stick comes off as a jolly person, constantly found smiling/laughing and likes saying puns in his sentences.
Stick grew up with Spinner in a mining area where the Small-billed Swans lived. When it was designated to be a mining area, they started to protest. Only Kite took them seriously, buying the whole area for them.
Chimera Ant arc
Stick along with his fellow Amateur Hunters survey the country of Kakin to find new species of animals. He and the other Amateur Hunters are left in shock and awe when they find out Gon is the son of the legendary Hunter Ging Freecss, and that he and Killua are Pro-Hunters. The Amateur Hunters then introduce themselves and Stick when introduces himself, he also details he's in charge of dinner like his last name and laughs about it. After they all enjoy a meal together, it's decided that with the help of Gon and Killua to scavenge for more species of animals before their contract expires within a month. As Gon and Killua search for new species of creatures, Spin and Stick observe their progress. Spin praises them on how they manage to unconsciously find new species, while Stick claims it's a skill they have and laughs, but also mentions it's also their instinct and luck.[1]
With their exploration in Kakin completed, Kite and the Amateur Hunters report their findings to the Kakin Zoologist Wong. In thanks for their hard work, Wong informs the group that the Southernpiece Auction House obtained a strange part of an amazing and unknown species of the sort, and they're now hiring Hunters to find and capture a live specimen. Thanks to Wong's influence Podungo with the other Amateur Hunters, Gon, Killua, and Kite manage to see the part of the unknown species at the Auction House. After examining the part Podungo expresses interest in analyzing the piece and Mon volunteers to stay behind to help her. So Stick along with the rest of the group go to a beach located near Yorknew City in order to find more clues about the whereabouts of the creature, but find nothing. Podungo later contacts Kite and informs him the part came from a Chimera Ant Queen. Upon hearing this although he laughs about it, he states concern over that kind of insect.[2]
Sometime after the search on the beach Stick and the group do some research on 10 or more people that have gone missing in the last 6 months and come up with nothing. So when Kite asks where the part was found Spin finds out it was found in the Mitene Union near NGL. When the group arrives at the NGL Border Stop the group are meet by two representatives of NGL.[3] After various screening and examinations performed to exclude any visitors not meeting the NGL conditions, the only people who meet those conditions are Stick, Podungo, Gon, Killua, and Kite. When the group enter NGL, they all rent horses and take along two NGL Interpreters as guides.[4] Though after some time in NGL Kite and the group get an S.O.S. message from one of Ponzu's bees detailing the Chimera Ants' nest location and for someone to contact the Hunter Association. Kite sensing immediate danger sends Podungo and Stick back to the border to get help.[5]
Stick is later seen somewhere outside of NGL, with Banana, Lin, and Spin as Banana gives a detailed explanation about the Chimera Ants social structure and how/what the Queen does after she gives birth to a king. Stick notes how it'll be a tough road for them ahead.[6] Spin mentions that Stick and her come from a small mining town that was purchased by Kite.[7]
13th Hunter Chairman Election arc
Stick is seen once again along with the other Amateur Hunters, Kite, and Koala waving goodbye to Gon, after he visits Kite.[8] Stick along with his fellow Amateur Hunters, Kite, Koala, and Gon visit Spin's hometown and spectate a large flock of Small-billed Swans fly into the sky.[9]

From Amaro Tan to High SchoolOctober 29, 2018
Ambra and Jorida graduated from the Amaro Tan School in Pogradec in June. Although you would not guess it by looking at them, both girls come from desperately poor families. By successfully completing ninth grade, they have already attained a higher level of education than most girls from their Balkan Egyptian and Albanian communities. But they aren't done yet. Ambra and Jorida were awarded full scholarships to the private, college preparatory Nehemia High School in Pogradec, and started tenth grade there this fall.
A Right To Play and Have FunOctober 02, 2018
The theme of Amaro Tan's 2018 summer camp was "I have rights." This may seem like an unusual theme for a summer camp, but for the children of Amaro Tan, it is a vitally important one.

Kate O'Beirne has more on the story behind the story of the Navy Cross awards:
When I called the Department of Army, I was referred to its "awards branch." There I was told that no information about soldiers' medal exploits was available. The "awards" office had no information on the first Distinguished Services Crosses awarded since the Vietnam War. It was recommended that I call the individual duty stations of individual decorated soldiers. At Fort Bragg, I was told that I would have to be able to identify a decorated soldier by name before a citation detailing his actions could be tracked down. The public-affairs office appeared unaware of any recent award ceremonies for service in Iraq. My updates to Col. Rynedance on the dead-ends I was encountering were met with a detached response.
You would like to think that the Army is being modest and does not want to promote itself. But, given the complete lack of media coverage of the heroes, I think it is more serious. If the military isn't willing to promote itself, why should the media. At the same time, shouldn't the media be more responsible?

As part of Caledon's SL5B celebrations, Radio Riel continues its series of programmes of The Music of Caledon with a day of Renaissance and Early Music — focusing primarily on lively and exciting modern interpretations, such as you might find at a Renaissance Fayre today, rather than more traditional presentations. As a result, today's show consists of fairly noisy and gleeful performances by modern artists in which, from time to time, traditional instrumentation is augmented, or sometimes replaced, by modern instruments. The result is a selection of musical fun and frolics from artists including Philip Pickett & Richard Thompson, Ashley Hutchings, Mince Pye, Wolgemut, Gryphon, Circulus, and of course Corvus Corax (though we'll hold off on the dance remixes on this occasion).
Today's programme is presented by Elrik Merlin and replaces the previously advertised programme from Magnatune, which will now be broadcast on Wednesday, presented by Edwina Heron.
Rocked-up Renaissance music is an ideal accompaniment to the steampunk/Victorian world of the Independent State of Caledon. Tune in as you explore the Caledon SL5B exhibit at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Second%20Life%20Birthday, simply by pressing Play on your embedded music player. The programme can also be heard by tuning in directly to our Main Stream, http://music.radioriel.org/.

There are so many windows that people pass by and see. Think of the first thing people see when they look at a storefront; They see windows all around. Stop and think are you taking advantage of your windows? Windows can be used as an artistic and innovative display that improve your business. Here are 5 reasons why you should use window graphics and how they can benefit your business.
1.Promote Brand Awareness
Brand awareness is a great way to familiarize the public with your brand. The name of your brand is more than just a name, it's a place where people come for a specific service, product, food or experience. Logos and slogans can be applied onto windows and are a great way for people to recall your company and the core values that your brand stands on and delivers.
Covering your windows with graphics allow people who pass to see and recall your logo and brand. Which results in promoting brand awareness and invites them in having another option to have in their life.
2.Mark your location
Not only do window graphics bring brand awareness, they mentally mark a visual point of where your business is located. Graphics on your window also bring the attention of customers to your location. You can go bug with marking your window with graphics, Graphics that are only shown at your business. Original graphics are the best graphics to use instead of generic artwork, make sure to work with a graphic designer/artist to bring attention to your brand.
Some may say they already have a fascia sign out front or above their door but window graphics are more customizable and can be changed every season or month with different graphics.
3. Inform visitors where the entrance is
Leading visitors to the entrance of your business is a great way to use graphics. Customers may get lost and try to enter your building through a door that's an emergency exit or because your location is very big; therefore there should be graphics of arrows/text directing them how to get in. This will prevent your customers from having a bad experience of embarrassment or aggravation. First visits are always a make it or break it for most customers. So start their experience on a good note filled with being welcomed and content.
4. Promote products and sales
When the season changes, so does the weather as well as the need for different products and services. Most businesses offer different promotions at different times of the year. Using window graphics that promote your new or best products with special promotions on them will increase the number of sales for your business. Studies show that sales and reduced prices items motivate people to come inside your business even when they were not planning to.
5. Privacy
Window graphics are a great way to add privacy in and out of your business. Perforated films are a one-way view that can be applied to your window so only customers or workers inside can see through the window to the outside. This is popularly used at gyms or office places. If you want viewers to be able to look through the window both ways but have limited sight, get frosted window graphics. These are perfect for meeting rooms and a settle way for light to shine in through windows. Another choice would a crystal film which allows vision to be blocked both on both sides of the windows.
get your window graphics with speed pro east bay
Window graphics are a great way to upgrade your business's windows. Whether the graphics are big or small contact us to help you with the project. We provided high-quality materials with a great team that'll go above your needs and expectations.

No matter which app you choose, you can access a massive collection of songs.
However, some exclusive albums are only available in Apple Music. For example, you cannot find Taylor Swift's 1989 on Spotify until June, 2017, yet the ablum has been available since November 2014.
Winner: Enjoy high-profile album in Apple Music.

Sean Day 'fivefer' plus fine knocks by French and Greenway see Exmouth 2nds to victory
PUBLISHED: 08:46 20 June 2018 | UPDATED: 08:46 20 June 2018
Exmouth 2nds thrashed hosts Sandford 2nds, beating the Mid Devon men by 200 runs.
There were two key innings for the Maer men and both came from players that had appeared in the 1st XI seven days before.
After James Horler (39) and Harrison Folland (8) had been returned to the Creedy Park pavilion, Callum French struck 73 and Lawrence Greenway hit 88, with the Exmouth score 162-3 when French was third man out.
Luke Davies joined Greenway and the pair added 120 for the fourth wicket before Greenway fell just a dozen runs shy of a century.
Davies saw Sean Day (8). Sam Goodier (10) and Ryan Schaufler (0), all come and go before he ended the innings unbeaten on 34 with Greg Mark, not out one, at the other end and Exmouth closed on 306-7 after their 45 overs.
The new ball for the Maer men went to Sean Day and claimed two early wickets, hitting the stumps and then landing a leg before decision to send back both openers.
Alex Craib then claimed a quick-fire double and suddenly, Sandford were four wickets down with just 48 runs on the board. That was soon 73-5 as Callum French got a leg before decision in his favour. From thereon there was precious little resistance as the home team lost wickets at regular intervals, finishing on 106 all out.
Lawrence Greenway and Callum French, with his second wicket, had success before Sean Day returned to wipe out the tail. James Horler secured a couple of stumpings and took a catch to complete a fine shift behind the stumps, but, post tea, it was Day who took the plaudits with his 'fivefer' return seeing him with figures of 5-17 from 8.4 overs. Callum French (2-25) and Alex Craib (2-27) both bagged a couple of wickets and the Lawrence Greenway wicket came at a cost of one run in a two over spell.
The win, a sixth in seven D Division East games for Exmouth 2nds, leaves the Maer men in second place, just a point behind leaders Heathcoat. On Saturday (June 26), Exmouth 2nds travel to fifth placed Upottery 1st XI.
● The Exmouth third XI were in H Division East action at Acland Park against Feniton 2nds.
Feniton batted first and powered their way to an imposing 260-6 with the Exmouth wicket taking bowlers being Sam Austin (1-43), Rory Craib (1-42), Jack Ottaway (1-42) and Jon Austin (1-17).
In the reply, Roger Wensley top scored with 67 and there was an unbeaten 34 from Julian Page, batting at number eight, as Exmouth were bowled out for 244 and so lost the match by a margin of 24 runs.

Dan Enos defends himself against report he ditched Alabama without warning
Dan Enos sent a tweet on Thursday to defend himself against a report saying he ditched Alabama without warning.
Enos served as Alabama's quarterbacks coach last season and was seemingly in line to become the offensive coordinator replacement for Mike Locksley, who had already accepted Maryland's head coaching job. Then Enos left to take a job as Miami's offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach under Manny Diaz.
According to a report from The Athletic's Bruce Feldman, Enos cleared out his stuff seemingly in the middle of the night and left without notice. Nick Saban didn't learn of Enos' departure until the coach did not report to the first staff meeting after the loss to Clemson in the championship game.
Enos sent a tweet disputing the report. He says he would never leave without notice and that he moved on because it was time for him.
I would never leave an employer without telling them I was doing so. No ghosting here. Nothing but respect for CNS and Alabama. Bottom line, business is business and it was time for me to exit. Wish all the best to RTR, CNS and the program.
— Dan Enos (@CoachDanEnos) January 17, 2019
Enos' decision to leave is surprising because he seemed to be set for a promotion within the staff. But like he said, he felt it was time to move on. He might have some work to do to repair his relationship with Saban after this.

Free radon test kits at Health Department
In support of National Radon Action Month, the Trumbull Health Department urges residents to learn more about radon — a leading cause of lung cancer — and to test for radon in their homes. To help promote testing, the Health Department has a limited number of free testing kits. To receive a free testing kit contact the Trumbull Health Department at 203-452-1030. The department is offering one free test kit per address while supplies last to Trumbull residents during the month of January. Results of test will be returned to the Health Department, which will notify the homeowner.
Radon is an invisible and odorless gas that can enter homes through cracks in the basement floor or from well water. Prolonged exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. Only one in five homes has a radon problem. But the only way to know is to test it.
Testing involves placing a small device placed in the home for at least 48 hours and then sent to a laboratory for results. If levels of radon are high, the Connecticut Department of Public Health strongly recommends that homeowners enlist a radon mitigation professional to help lower the levels.
Radon exposure at any level poses some health risk. Radon mitigation professionals are trained to reduce radon in homes using ventilation and depressurization systems and other techniques. As with many home repairs, the cost of radon mitigation varies, and the service may cost $1,200 to $1,500. A list of radon professionals is available at ct.gov/dph/radon.
Testing kits can also be purchased at the American Lung Association website or by calling 1-800-LUNG-USA or 860-289-5401 to order a testing kit. The American Lung Association of the Northeast is offering a radon test kit and information packet for $14.50.
For more information about radon and radon testing, visit the Trumbull Health Department, trumbull-ct.gov/thd.

How to start a full Mac virus scan
How to scan a specific Mac file or folder for viruses
How to remove viruses found on Mac
What to do with any items Antivirus finds
How to access the Antivirus Quarantine
Getting started with Antivirus for Mac
The Antivirus feature detects and removes malware, viruses, Trojans, worms, and other major security threats from your Mac.
Antivirus for Mac is built into the Internet Security plugin. To start using Internet Security, open MacKeeper -> select Internet Security from the left sidebar, and click Launch Internet Security.
Next, you should see Antivirus and Adware Cleaner in the right panel. If you are using Internet Security for the first time, you'll have to enable Antivirus first—just click Launch Antivirus.
Antivirus will start enabling. It may take a few moments.
Once Antivirus is successfully enabled, you can start using it. On the welcome screen, you should see the date of the last virus database update and the Antivirus engine version.
How to start a full Mac virus scan
To check your Mac with macOS antivirus, do the following:
- Step 1. Open the Antivirus feature, and click the blue Start Scan button in the right panel
By default, Antivirus scans your Mac's home folder for malware and viruses.
- Step 2. Wait until the scan is over
Antivirus will show you which files are being scanned at the moment as well as the number of threats detected. This number can grow as MacKeeper uncovers new threats.
You can see the entire path to the scanned file by hovering the cursor over the path to the file.
Important: The total time needed for the Mac virus scan depends on the number of files, their size, and overall Mac performance speed.
How to scan a specific Mac file or folder for viruses
Running a custom virus scan is a good idea if you connect an external USB drive or download any new files on your Mac. Here's how to scan a specific Mac folder for viruses:
- Step 1. Open the Antivirus feature, and click Custom Scan below the blue button in the right panel
- Step 2. Choose the folder or file you'd like to scan for threats—click the + icon, select the folder, and hit Open or drag the folder into the MacKeeper window
- Step 3. To scan several folders or files, hold down the ⌘(Command) key and select the folders you'd like to scan.
- Step 4. To remove an item from the custom scan list, click the ✖cross sign next to the item's name, and confirm it by clicking Remove on the confirmation window
- Step 5. Scan all the added folders or files by clicking the blue click Start Scan button
- Step 6. If you want to stop the scanning the selected items, click Stop Scan
How to remove viruses found on Mac
Once the Mac virus scan is over, you'll see the results on your screen. If your Mac is safe, you'll see the following screen.
If MacKeeper Antivirus detects any malicious items, you'll see their full list on your screen.
What to do with any items Antivirus finds
You can either delete the infected items or move them to quarantine. For security reasons, we recommend deleting all infected items.
- Check if infected files are important for the system
If you suspect that the file marked as infected is important for an application or the macOS system, you can put it into quarantine. To check if the infected items are important for the system, you can check their location by pressing ^(Control) and clicking the file then selecting Reveal in Finder.
- Decide if you want to delete or quarantine the files
If the file is located in any user folder (Downloads, Documents, Pictures, Music, Desktop, Trash etc.), feel free to delete it.
If the file is located in any other folder, you may quarantine it to avoid the app or system misbehavior. Quarantined files cannot damage the system as they are blocked.
- Select the infected files to delete or quarantine
By default, MacKeeper selects all detected items. If you want to manually review each one and go through item-by-item, deselect the Check All checkbox, and select the items you want to delete or quarantine.
- To delete infected items, click the white Delete button at the bottom of the list and confirm it in the confirmation window
Next, you'll see a "Deleting Completed" message. Note that if you didn't delete all infected items, you'll see the Proceed button. Click it to continue with the remaining items.
- To quarantine infected items, click the blue Quarantine button at the bottom of the list.
- Once you're done with deleting or quarantining all found items, you can click the Restart button. This starts a new Mac virus scan to make sure your Mac is safe.
How to access the Antivirus Quarantine
The files you put into quarantine don't disappear. Here's how to access them:
- Step 1. Open Antivirus and click the Review button
- Step 2. Click the white Restore button to take the infected file out of quarantine—note, it might affect your Mac's security
- Step 3. Click the blue Delete button to completely remove the selected file from your Mac

text: It was the first time for Dr. A and Mei-Shun to meet with each other this year. The former told the latter that if today's test results were fine, their appointment would be made every three month. How nice it sounds! The longer a patient can be relieved from memories of any disease, the smaller pressure she/he would have. And it would mean seasonal visits to a hospital — quite normal for Japanese in good health, living in a country of 春夏秋冬=spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Learning a distributed version control system is kind of a revelation. If you're like me you've probably gone through the following progression. You started off with SourceSafe. You thought, wow, how did we ever get things done without version control?
Sometime after that you switched to cvs. If you were like me you probably thought. Wow, I can't believe we ever put up with all those locks and only allowing a single person to edit a file at once. How stupid was that?
A few years later you might have switched to subversion or svn. At the time I remember thinking. Wow, how did we ever live without atomic commits?

Recent Reviews of Shared Office Space in Kawaguchi
A typical suburban city of Tokyo's metropolitan area, Kawaguchi has a fluctuating population depending on the time of day. Many of its inhabitants run to the big cities for work during the day, but there is a new intrepid breed that are hanging out in the coworking spaces that have recently opened their doors. This urban area is cloaked in apartments with numerous train stations and bordered by the Tokyo wards of Kita-ku and Adachi-ku with the Arakawa River running across its border to the south.
Japan is changing its view on entrepreneurship and its tech savvy youth are not afraid of the stigma of failure any more, thanks to the media hype surrounding startups. Startups were Plan B in case you couldn't get a job, but today many are leaving their corporate positions to found their own companies or to join other startups. Japan does lag behind China and Silicon Valley, but the future holds a more positive outlook. The stability of corporate or public sector jobs does not hold the same allure and youth who were once risk-averse are now taking entrepreneurship to another level.
The government is offering incentives to startups bolstering the creative tech scene plus there are numerous successful founders mentoring the youth of the city. Today tech savvy youth are not jumping on trains in the mornings, but heading to their local coworking space to get their stuff done on their own terms.

Andy Borowitz at the New Yorker reports on the disappointment and disenchantment of Trump's supporters. They do not want him to stop with Muslims.
NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report)—The billionaire Donald Trump's proposal to ban Muslims from entering the United States has sparked deep disappointment among his supporters, many of whom had hoped he was planning to ban a sizable number of other religions.
In conversations with likely Trump voters across the country, reactions ranged from disenchantment to a sharp sense of betrayal as supporters tried to make sense of his decision to ban members of only one faith.
But some still have faith in Trump's long term aims.
... Tracy Klugian, a Trump supporter from Bismarck, North Dakota, said that voters who were upset with the billionaire for banning members of only one religion were "freaking out over nothing."
"People need to understand that he's banning Muslims first because they're the most obvious religious group you'd want to ban," she said. "I'm sure once he's President he'll get to all the other ones."

Crazy Will Stevenson has become THE man to turn to if prospective grooms have a slot on their stag become free late on.
He has clocked up 31,000 miles in just three months – taking in Ibiza FIVE times, Munich, Budapest and others – all accompanied by his pet badger Seth.
He pays only the cost of changing the name on flights, but has spent a sobering £10k on boozing across the 16 stag dos.
And his holidaymates are all total strangers.
So how, and why, did rave-lover Will embark on the epic booze mission?
The 35-year-old, from Nottingham, bid online to go to Budapest in June because he had a "spare weekend".
He said: "It first started when I bid on a place on a stranger's stag do in June.
"One of the groom's mates dropped out, so they auctioned his seat.
"I had a free weekend and was thinking about going to a festival but thought this would be a laugh.
"I never expected to win, but the day after the auction closed I was going to Budapest with 22 lads I'd never met before.
"It was a bit scary to start with but once we got to know each other it was a great laugh."
Since then he has jetted off to Amsterdam, Ibiza FIVE times, Munich, Rome, Barcelona twice, Magaluf twice, Gran Canaria, Tenerife, and even Blackpool.
The 35-year-old's exploits caught the eye of Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills, who covered the trip on his show.
Since that exposure, Will has been inundated with requests from grooms asking HIM to join them on their pre-nuptial blowouts.
He added: "The last few months have been absolutely non-stop - I feel like I've spent the last 12 weeks either partying or in airports.
"Some of the stags overlapped, especially in Ibiza, so when one group was leaving I'd be staying behind for more madness.
"I used up my holiday allowance pretty quickly but fortunately my job is quite flexible."
Will's mascot Seth the Badger has stayed with him throughout, having joined him at festivals and concerts before the madness began.
After gaining notoriety at a George Ezra concert with the hashtag #seththebadger, Will chronicles his crazy antics on his Twitter, @Willhasabadger.
On his travels, Will has partied with superstar DJs David Guetta, Pete Tong and Axwell and Ingrosso.
He said: "At first Seth created a bit of tension.
"Before that first stag, the other lads found my Twitter and noticed I carried a badger around.
"In their Facebook group they added me to they'd made a few comments about it being weird.
"But we got past that, and he's become a focal point in his own right."
He's not giving up on his stag do plans anytime soon.
Three more are in the offing, including ones to Las Vegas and Melbourne.
And incredibly, booze-mad Will is scared of flying, despite having already gone round the world in distance on his stag do travels.
He added: "Believe it or not, but it is true - before I fly I hate the thought, but a few vodkas in the airport settle my nerves.
"I never tell the stags before I go on, then it's too late."
How party-mad Will clocked up the air miles
Nottingham to Budapest return: 2,400 miles
Nottingham to Madrid return: 2,400m
Nottingham to Barcelona return: 2,100m
Nottingham to Magaluf return: 2,500m

Dynamical Systems and Applications to Biology
Dhaka, Bangladesh
10/06/2019 to 21/06/2019
Application of Dynamical Systems to Biology is nowadays an important challenge. The goal of this school is, on the one hand to present the basic tools in Dynamical Systems to solve ODE's, and, on the second hand, to present how these tools can be used in Biology. The school will comprise two series of lectures. One theoretical one and one for applied mathematics. A large part will be devoted to exercises sessions.
The theoretical part will focus both on Symbolic Dynamics and Geometric Dynamics (mainly uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems). The applied part will make connections between the theoretical's one by using the tools presented in the theoretical courses to study the logistic family, population evolutions or emergence of epilepsy crises.

Never miss your child's vaccine – How vRemind is helping you stay on track
- +0
- +0
We often take up a cause after it pinches us personally. The story of how vRemind came into existence is no different. Nagesh Chukka missed the vaccine for his child. Feeling miserable, he checked with some of his friends and colleagues about how they tracked immunization schedules. Nagesh's colleague, Srinivas also experienced the same problem.
The technology enthusiasts thought of building a mobile app for themselves. While that did solve their problem, what hit them is that according to Unicef, India has the largest number of unimmunized children (6.9 million), a number greater than that of Pakistan and Ethiopia. More data from Unicef reveals that 30% of the deaths in children under 5 years are due to preventable diseases. Even though the Govt. of India, under its Universal Immunization Program (UIP) provides free vaccines, yet immunization coverage in India is still low. The missing link is timely vaccines. This fatality rate can be brought down drastically if the immunization schedule for preventable diseases such as diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough and measles is followed. Understanding that the problem plagues rural as well as urban India, Nagesh and Srinivas reworked their solution for the masses and came up with vRemind, an SMS based solution that helps parents and guardians keep track of immunization schedules.
The solution: Simple yet effective
It is a two pronged approach with registration and reminders.
Registration – multiple channel registration
- Sending SMS to vRemind short code (56263) with message REMIND [space] Date of birth DD-MM-YY [space] baby's name/nick name
- Registering on the website – www.vRemind.org
- Healthcare partners to enroll all birth details at the time of birth.
- vRemind sends two reminders. The first one is 7 days before the due date and the second one is one day before the due date.
Collaboration, Impact and revenue model
Apart from being an independent entity, they have collaborated with healthcare providers for reaching a wider audience. One of their partners is LifeSpring Hospitals, which has 12 branches in Hyderabad and provides low cost maternity care for the poor in urban areas. The impact has been immediate. LifeSpring saw a sudden surge in parents bringing their children for vaccination. Srinivas adds, "Initially the LifeSpring hospitals had operational challenges to accommodate the volume spike. They didn't expect that the simple SMS system can bring about such a huge change." This validated Nagesh and Srinivas's belief about the impact.
Nagesh adds, "Besides helping parents we are helping hospitals in planning and prioritizing their inventory and staff to provide immunization coverage. Our vision is to help to address challenges in vaccine supply chain; this is evident in rural and far flung areas. "
vRemind have over 10,000 subscribers and about 31,000 SMS reminders have been sent till date. According to the data, awareness about immunization increased significantly among these subscribers who have now been following the schedule. vRemind is also working with the local communities in urban slums of Hyderabad to improve awareness about immunization by organizing community reach programs.
vRemind offers provides subscription models and white labeled solutions to hospitals, which will generate revenue to sustain operations. However, vRemind will continue to send free vaccination reminders for the parents and guardians who are registered directly with them.
Srinivas tells us about the current challenges. The first one being frequent SIM change in rural areas. Second being the mobile phones network penetration and usage in rural and being non-reachable is still a challenge. Srinivas adds, "India is a diverse country and requires multi-language support for easier penetration."
Nagesh adds another interesting point, "We're often asked about why we do this for free and why did we choose vRemind as a not-for-profit. It's still hard for many to believe in the concept of "social enterprise" and its motives to address key challenges in the society."
Coming up from their kitty
They are working with a business school professor to find out the impact of their project. This will also include exploring more mediums to improve immunization coverage. Nagesh says, "We want to find out what are the other modes, be it IVR or support of multi-language or community reach programs to help improve the awareness and adherence."
Next on the agenda, vRemind hope to provide the prenatal reminders to pregnant women. Targeting the issue of Malnutrition, vRemind plans on branching into giving nutritional advice to pregnant women and to mothers with young children.
Srinivas tells us, "We are partnering with more low cost maternity and pediatric clinics to increase reach. We're also looking to partner with government organizations and international NGO's." Nagesh adds, "To improve the coverage and reach, we need to enable multi-language support and IVR support for those who can't read SMS. We're also going to focus on least immunized states on priority and improve the immunization coverage to optimal level before we aim for full immunization."
While technology is not necessarily the answer to all the problems, it has been key in breaking barriers to entry and acted as a cost effective enabler. Providing an add-on feature like timely reminder coupled with Universal Immunization Program (UIP) has the potential to break the plateau and see an exponential rise in immunization levels, which will consequently reduce mortality rates in children under 5 years. Nagesh and Srinivas plan on taking vRemind global and visualize it to be the go-to affordable mobile health platform.

Nene Leakes' troubled son has landed himself in hot water again. This time from a woman who claims to be his baby's mother.
Apparently, Bryson Bryant fathered a child with a woman by the name of Symone Davis. The baby boy is now a 1-year-old.
Symone contacted Radar Online to out Bryson for not taking care of his son.
"He's been dodging me left and right every time I've tried to have him served with papers to pay child support for our son, It's just pathetic. He doesn't have a stable home and jumps from place to place since NeNe kicked him out, and it's costing me time and money trying to have him served," Davis explains.
That's not the worst of it, the 27-year-old says that her baby's father spends all the money that he earns on serious drugs.
"He's on cocaine and that's where all his money goes. He gets a job for two weeks, and when he gets his check it all goes to the dope man. Then he gets another job and does the same thing. This is his cycle and it's sad because I want him in our son's life," she adds.
The troubled man has another child that it out of the spotlight. However, fans will remember on "Real Housewives of Atlanta" that needed was a proud Glam-ma.
The "RHOA" star's son has been in a string of disorder that leads back to half a decade ago when he was arrested for stealing from Walmart which Leakes addressed on the show.
In 2013, Bryson was arrested for a DUI and spent time in prison for skipping mandatory classes. Later that year, he violated probation by failing a drug test in addition to not paying fines.
In 2015 Bryant was arrested for Taco Bell check forgery. Last year, Radar published photos of Nene's son surrounded by drug paraphernalia while partying with friends.

For those who appreciate the powers of the human instrument, body, life and mind, we find a continual impulsion to develop these powers, hone and refine them, and challenge the limitations as we grow and mature. Along the way, we discover that this instrument is capable of things we could not have imagined before trying. This is what happens in daily life as people grow, educate themselves and take up various lines of development. We see in the various sports the attempt to extend and expand the capacities of the body, and in those who have taken this to an ultimate degree, we see amazing feats of strength, endurance, speed or coordination. Similarly we see the ability to develop powers of compassion, empathy, aesthetic sense, love, and strength of purpose in the life, and in the mind, powers of reasoning, memory, imagination and creativity, and the development of will power and mastery of conceptual reasoning. Sri Aurobindo observes: "all our normal life is a trying of these possibilities and an opportunity for this preparatory and tentative self-training. But life cannot ind its perfect self-fulfilment till it opens to that greater reality of being of which by this development of a richer power and a more sensitive use and capacity it becomes a well-prepared field of working."
This is an important part of human development and is a preparation for further perfections that fall outside the normal realm of mind, life and body. Just as the expression of life changes, uplifts and enhances the material substance, and the expression of mind changes, uplifts and enhances the body and the life-energy, so there is further development possible which can enhance, mind, life and body by its action. "Mind is fulfilled by a greater knowledge of which it is only a half-light, life discovers its meaning in a greater power and will of which it is the outward and as yet obscure functioning, body finds its last use as an instrument of a power of being of which it is a physical support and material starting-point."
Sri Aurobindo, The Synthesis of Yoga, Part Four: The Yoga of Self-Perfection, Chapter 2, The Integral Perfection, pp. 591-592
