And with a median income of more than $98,000 a poverty rate of 4.5%, and an unemployment rate of only 3.6%, it's certainly one of the more successful communities in the area.

What should I teach my daughter to call her private parts?
How we refer to our daughter's genitalia is one of those seemingly harmless but ultimately meaningful choices. Some parents (especially parents of girls) find naming genitals fraught with uncertainty and discomfort. It's time to cut through the doubt and discover the best approach for you and your daughter.

since my last post we have done allsorts of things! Spent the day at Epcot, where we tried Soaring which was awesome, Katie got to go on twice since we did a babyswap and she thought it was fab. Katie also made toll house cookies which was cool (and free), we all did Imagination with Figment, and the girls had a great time playing in the fountain and getting very very wet.

Here's our summary of key events from overnight that affect New Zealand, with news that dairy prices have taken another fall, while the vote on the US' big tax reforms is still pending but expected to pass.
Dairy prices dropped another 3.9% in the overnight GlobalDairyTrade auction, giving dairy farmers a downbeat ending to a year in which Fonterra recently downgraded its milk price forecast to $6.40 per kilogram of milk solids. Average prices ended the year below the psychological mark of US$3000 per tonne, with the overall prices as measured by the GDT Index falling to their lowest level since October 2016. The key Whole Milk Powder fell 2.5%. WMP ended the year at US$2755/t, also a low mark for the year - just going under the previous low mark for it set earlier this year in March. With drought looming in many parts of the country, it's not a great start to the festive season for one of the crucial drivers of our economy.
Meanwhile the law banning overseas buyers from purchasing existing homes in New Zealand has passed its first hurdle in Parliament. Associate Finance Minister David Parker welcomed the first reading of the Overseas Investment Amendment Bill which has been referred to the Finance and Expenditure select committee.
And while our new Government is still moving ahead at pace on its 100 day plan even as we get into the shadow of Christmas, things are pretty busy across the ditch too, with Aussie PM Malcolm Turnbull unveiling a reshuffle that featured the inevitable winners and losers.
Also reshuffling are the Australian banks. They have vowed to make it easier for customers to cancel their credit cards, they will stop charging statement fees, and borrowers will be alerted when their interest-free period is about to end, as part of a new code of conduct. The Australian Bankers' Association will on Wednesday unveil a swag of changes intended to put a greater focus on ethical behaviour in an industry that has copped a backlash from government.
President Trump's sweeping tax reforms, are making their way through the legislative process.The changes are quite complicated. While the changes had expected to be cleared on Wednesday, New Zealand time, a procedural snag in fact delayed them for another day.
Wall Street dipped ahead of the vote, weighed down by an Apple-led pullback after two strong session of gains on rising hopes that the US Congress will vote in favour of the tax bill. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 58.47 points, or 0.24%, at 24,733.73 and the S&P 500 was down 4 points, or 0.15%, at 2,686.16. The Nasdaq Composite was down 21.92 points, or 0.31%, at 6,972.84. Apple fell 1.2% after broker Instinet downgraded the stock to "neutral," saying the supply-demand balance for the iPhone X suggested little space to raise sales estimates for the next quarter.
There are more signs of life in the US housing market. US single-family homebuilding and permits surged to more than 10-year highs in November, in a hopeful sign for a housing market that has been hobbled by supply constraints. The US Commerce Department said overnight that single-family homebuilding, which accounts for the largest share of the housing market, jumped 5.3% to a rate of 930,000 units. That was the highest level since September 2007. Pointing to further gains, single-family home permits rose 1.4% to a pace of 862,000 units, a level not seen since August 2007. The jump in groundbreaking on single-family housing units suggests housing could contribute to gross domestic product in the fourth quarter.
In more indications of cryptomania US securities regulators temporarily suspended trading in the shares of Crypto Company, a small firm that saw its stock rise more than 2,700% this month after signing a deal to buy a cryptocurrency data platform. In the 'real world' of crypto, the flagship Bitcoin is down again today - about 2% in the past 24 hours - at around US$18,400. Will it make US$20,000 for Christmas? Yes of course it will. Other cryptocurrencies are enjoying Bitcoin taking a breather and have seen investors piling into them in the past two days. EOS, for example is up 50% in the past 24 hours to $12.83. Mind you, Singapore is the latest place to go all killjoy on the whole thing.
*(I think I jinxed Bitcoin, people - it was down to US$16,800 by later Wednesday.)
It's been a rough year for the insurance market, with a series of natural disasters. Insurers in the specialist Lloyd's of London have added 3 billion pounds in capital following large natural catastrophe losses in 2017, the market's senior executives said. The capital has been provided "to restore capital resources to the level prior to the Q3 2017 loss events and to cover changes in capital requirements for 2018 underwriting", chairman Bruce Carnegie-Brown and chief executive Inga Beale said in an annual email to the market.
Rearranging the furniture on the decks of a sinking ship. Also in Europe, embattled furniture retailer Steinhoff International Holdings NV was pushed to the brink of collapse after it said lenders have started to cut off support in the wake of an accounting scandal that destroyed most of its value in a matter of days. As the owner of Conforama in France and Mattress Firm in the U.S. seeks a lifeline, it's still unable to assess the magnitude of financial irregularities disclosed two weeks ago, it said in a presentation overnight. A makeshift management team made a last-ditch plea to banks in London after an 85 percent plunge in the share price and the departure of the two men who built the South African company into a would-be rival to Ikea via debt-fueled acquisitions.
Getting serious on global warming in China. China said the first phase of its long-awaited nationwide carbon emission trading scheme (ETS) will focus on the power sector, as the government outlined details of what is expected to be the world's largest such programme. China's State Council approved the scheme last week and the National Development & Reform Commission (NDRC) outlined some details of how it will be implemented, marking its launch, NDRC vice chairman Zhang Yong said at a briefing. Trading will be based in Shanghai, involving 1,700 power companies and over 3 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide annually, he said.
Oil edged up towards $64 a barrel, helped by a North Sea pipeline outage, OPEC-led supply cuts and expectations that U.S. crude inventories had fallen for a fifth week. Brent crude LCOc1, the global benchmark, was up 13c or 0.2% to $63.54 a barrel.
Gold has fallen slightly overnight. It's at US$1259.20, down US$2.70 or 0.21%.
In New York 10-year Treasury Bonds were up 0.07 at 2.46%.
This morning the Kiwi dollar is marking time, down very slightly down against the American currency at US69.81 cents, slightly up against the Aussie at AU91.29c, and slightly down against the euro at 59.09 euro cents.

NZ interest rates are higher than Australia's.
Yet the NZD has been dropping against the AUD?
Is NZ no longer a haven for currency traders?
Probably falling Global Dairy futures not helping for a start....anyway, we can continue selling expensive houses to each other so it doesn't matter - right? ;-)
"European milk production was strong again in October. Austria, Greece, Spain, and Sweden have not yet reported October milk collections. Assuming that trends were similar to September in those nations, European milk collections in October were 5% greater than the prior year and up 1.1% from the record-breaking volumes of October 2015. The biggest players, Germany and France, both managed to increase milk collections by 4.9% from a year ago. Indeed, each of the top ten European dairy nations reported sizeable year- over-year growth. In sixth-ranked Italy, milk output was up 10.1% from 2016 and 9.8% from two years ago. Hopes that post-quota growth in Northern Europe would be partially offset by declines in Southern Europe have proven illusory, to the detriment of milk prices around the globe.
"Cheesemakers across the nation are relaying the same message: milk is abundant." So says USDA's Dairy Market News. Given the size of the U.S. dairy herd, how could it be otherwise?"
Remind me again, why has the cost of butter in the supermarket doubled compared to a year ago?
Buttering up to Farmers and overpaid and over inflated Fonterror staff. You are being milked.
Been looking at the US rig count; it's up by 300 YoY. We should expect to see more in 2018 if oil continues to gain.
"According to Baker Hughes, U.S. oil rig counts rebounded to a nine week high during the week ending Dec 1st. Dec 1st U.S. oil rig counts finished 0.3% above the previous week while remaining higher on a YOY basis for the 48th consecutive week, finishing up 57.0%. Dec 1st week ending crude oil production continued to increase to long-term record high levels, resulting in oil production per rig remaining near recently experienced six month highs. Crude oil production is expected to continue to strengthen throughout coming months according to drilling productivity estimates compiled throughout areas accounting for 95% of recent production gains."
"we seem to be reaching the point where, even with more debt, we are running out of cheap energy to add to the system. When this happens, the economic system seems more prone to fracture. Ugo Bardi calls the situation "reaching the inflection point in a Seneca Cliff. ...The model of the 1930s gives us an indication regarding what to expect: apparent surpluses of commodities of all types; commodity prices that are too low; a lack of jobs, especially ones that pay an adequate wage; collapsing financial institutions. This is close to the opposite of what many people assume that peak oil will look like. "
OECD warns of money laundering through real estate.....Australia (* and more so New Zealand! We don't have many of the impediments to laundering that our Australian cousins do - Stamp Duty and a Capital Gains Tax to note just 2) needs to take urgent steps to address this gaping hole in our financial system..... "the vested interests of banks, lawyers, and even law enforcement often favour turning a blind eye to foreign corruption proceeds". (AFR - tdoay)
(* My added comment)
Also in Europe, embattled furniture retailer Steinhoff International Holdings NV was pushed to the brink of collapse after it said lenders have started to cut off support in the wake of an accounting scandal that destroyed most of its value in a matter of days..
Unintended consequences:
Two weeks ago, as part of our continuing coverage of the Steinhoff fiasco in which it emerged that the ECB was the mystery and (not so) proud buyer of just issued Steinhoff (now junk) bonds (maturing in 2025 but set for bankruptcy within months) and which lost more than half of their value overnight when it the company announced it was caught in what may be a terminal accounting fraud scandal, we said that ", it seems virtually guaranteed that the banks will suffer steep haircuts on their Steinhoff exposure" and "so will the ECB, which on Friday was rumored it was considering selling its Steinhoff bonds. It is not exactly clear how this would take place, since the ECB's QE by definition only buys, not sells, at least for now." Read more and more
Maybe I am missing something but I cannot understand why there is not a far greater outcry about the Trump tax changes. My understanding is that the govt deficit last year was about $660 B, projected to drop to $400 B this year. These changes are projected to push it to well over $1 T, with some saying that the estimates are far too low. The USA has been bumping up against their legislated debt ceiling for years, so how can this not end up in disaster? Despite all his rhetoric and appealing to the blue collar workers it seems he is shafting the whole nation in favour of the ever increasingly wealthy top 1 % . Have the population become so punch drunk with his madness that they are beyond resistance?
The risk for us is that this plan could eventually plunge the USA into an economic crisis that affects the whole world (once again).
There's been plenty of outcry from economists and financial commentators pointing out it's not a great plan and will massively increase debt. But it's all written off as "fake news", the go-to these days. I think the blue collar were abandoned by the Democrats a while back, but they've certainly been sold a pup by Trump.
The Democrats might be best to purge themselves of the likes of Hilary (she's gone, but her ilk likely still remain) and reconnect with the American lower and middle classes who haven't seen much of the upside across the last decade.

This Fashion Friday! Celebrating John Smedley.
John Smedley, the oldest manufacturing fashion factory in the world is celebrating their 232nd year on BBC! Having survived throughout the years we can see why it has been described as the 'Rolls-Royce' of knitwear.
The ever evolving fashion industry has been hard to keep up with but John Smedley have remained an independent British manufacturer throughout the centuries. They have adapted to fit the more relaxed and casual fashion industry but still have managed to keep a touch of the classic by the neckline styles and fit.
The Sea Island cotton is a wonderful material, the look and feel just scream "luxury!" at us. Even in photo, we can see how the material gives the fitted polo shirt an interesting texture. Described as looking like 'waves' the finely made shirt does not feel stiff and it feels great on. The neckline is classic and reminiscent to the more relaxed period of the sixties. We invite you to our John Douglas Showrooms on Chestergate, in the Heart of Macclesfield to make your own judgement!
We also have some beautiful Merino and Cashmere blended sweaters that are guaranteed to add a more luxurious feel to your ensemble. Much like the Sea Island cotton shirts, John Smedley focuses on bringing you practical and comfortable wear whilst retaining the elegance of a 'luxury' fashion item. The darker tones of navy, plum and black are perfect for the winter season but also for those who would like to maintain more of a muted look.
Here at John Douglas we are always focused on bringing you comfort, practicality and style. The name 'John' is not the only thing we share, we also share our values and ethos.
So, please be sure to tune into the BBC1 Breakfast Business News, live from John Smedley and to also pop into our John Douglas Showrooms for a look yourself.
We look forward to seeing you!

*I grew up in a family that was scarred by domestic abuse, so this story hit home. It also literally renewed my spirit and faith. Read it, and you'll feel it, too.
Melisa Dohme was stabbed 32 times in the face, neck, and arms by her ex-boyfriend back in 2012. When emergency worker Cameron Hill came to her aid, she was so covered in blood that he couldn't discern her facial features or the color of her hair.
Hill jumped into action, carrying her from an ambulance to a helicopter for the first of a series of life-saving surgeries and procedures. She survived, and ultimately made a full recovery.
Hill reconnected with Dohme 10 months later at a luncheon in her honor.
"I didn't even want to open my heart up to anything," Dohme said. "I was afraid, but then I met Cameron."
The connection was mutual, and after four years of dating, the couple got married a few weeks ago.
"It was a full circle moment," Dohme said. "I spent the worst and the best day of my life with Cameron."
"It was beautiful," Hill said. "I married the girl of my dreams. Her strength was unbelievable. That was the first thing I fell in love with."
"It's unbelievable where my life's come from and where I am now," Dahme said. "For so long, I felt when looking at myself, that I wasn't myself and I always had something wrong with me. I didn't want people to always have to give me sympathy."
"Cameron was so great, he would always just be there for me…in every way, even if I was really upset or had a really rough day. He's my best friend, we've been such a team through [my healing]. I wouldn't want to be with anybody else! Life and love after abuse is possible."
In case you're wondering, Dahme is planning to write a book and is dedicating the rest of her life to advocating for other domestic abuse survivors. And the cowardly, abusive ex-boyfriend who stabbed her 32 times? He's serving a life sentence.
Sometimes, stories really do turn out like they're supposed to. Sometimes, folks actually live happily ever after. All the best to this happy couple!

Beautiful Star Bread for today, the day the Church remembers the Patriarch Abraham.
And He took him outside and said, "Now look toward the heavens, and count the stars, if you are able to count them." And He said to him, "So shall your descendants be." Genesis 15:5
This seemed an ambitious bake for me but I really wanted to pull it off. I used Nutella in this bread instead of the cinnamon butter called for but if I ever make it again the cinnamon must be tried.
Do you ever suspect a recipe might be cursed? I almost gave up on the one. I mismeasured my flour but caught that before I went any further…thankfully. Then the dough after combining everything was so crumbly. I added milk but thought it might be ruined by this point but thought it wouldn't hurt to just see what happened.
However what happened was just more frustration. I spilled all the egg whites for the wash, broke the parchment paper box trying to rip some paper out, then my flour container fell all by itself out of the pantry. I let this dough rise for a LONG time. It actually did do some rising to my surprise.
It cooked up well enough and smelled pretty good and at least Martha had fun licking the Nutella covered spoon. Maybe it's a winner anyway.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over daily movements, we do like to keep an eye on market changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
Although less than half of all public stocks advanced Wednesday, both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 Index (SNPINDEX:^SPX) ended at or near record highs. With earnings season still in full swing and majorly influential economic data coming out tomorrow, the S&P 500 managed to tack on 7 points, or 0.4%, to end at 1,770. Tomorrow, Wall Street will look to GDP and jobless claims figures for a measure of how well the recovery is coming along. Relentlessly optimistic as today's markets are, there were still a handful of big decliners mixed in with the winners Wednesday.
Shares of department store retailer J.C. Penney (OTC:JCPN.Q), which have been wildly volatile the entire year, slumped 7.3%, as investors seemed to recall the doubts that have driven shares down more than 60% in 2013. J.C. Penney's stock was reinvigorated recently by comments from CEO Myron Ullman, who expressed confidence in the company's upcoming holiday sales numbers last week. The comments sparked a brief rally in shares, giving shareholders hope that their hellish ride was over. For long-term investors, however, the best way to approach J.C. Penney is probably with severe caution, as liquidity concerns still abound.
Chesapeake Energy (OTC:CHKA.Q), which has also been pushed and pulled by CEO-related issues in the past year, fell 6.8% Wednesday. While the oil and natural gas company looks to be in the midst of a turnaround, Chesapeake's third quarter report didn't quite cut it for investors today. Earnings beat expectations, with earnings per share rising from $0.33 in the same quarter last year to $0.43 in the most recent period. With operating cash flow also jumping more than 20%, today's decline seems to merely be the result of lofty production expectations.
Finally, big-box electronics retailer Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) dropped 5.3% Wednesday. The fall comes on a day with a dearth of major developments regarding Best Buy's core business. With earnings set to be announced on Nov. 19 and shares having posting 250% gains in 2013 alone, it's not unlikely that some investors are getting the jitters and taking gains. While Best Buy doesn't have any net income in the last 12 months to speak of, it is the dawn of the holiday season, every retailer's favorite time of year.

I'm working on a 2d game for iOS. The sprites I use are imported with FilterMode: point and Format: truecolor, vSync is off in the quality settings. I'm putting the camera position in Update on rounded pixels and still on iPhone 6 I get a little flickering on the edges of the sprites. For example when the camera moves, some vertical lines switch between a width of 2px and 1px very fast. Putting the camera on rounded positions helped on my iPad 2 but not on my iPhone 6.
I use a script to set the camera size like this:
int height = Mathf.RoundToInt(targetWidth / (float)Screen.width * Screen.height);
GetComponent<Camera>().orthographicSize = height / pixelsToUnits;
And here is how I put the camera on rounded pixel positions (it follows the character):
private void updateCam(){
float newX = RoundToNearestPixel (transform.position.x, 100);
float newY = RoundToNearestPixel (transform.position.y, 100);
Camera.main.transform.position = new Vector3 (newX + 6, newY, -15);
public float RoundToNearestPixel(float unityUnits, float pixelToUnits)
float valueInPixels = unityUnits * pixelToUnits;
valueInPixels = Mathf.Round(valueInPixels);
float roundedUnityUnits = valueInPixels * (1 / pixelToUnits);
return roundedUnityUnits;
Any ideas why it's still flickering? I'm working with Unity 5.2, xCode 7.1 beta and iOS 9.
Thanks! Stefan

Writer, actor and director Sharon Horgan has rightly enjoyed plenty of success for the excellent Catastrophe – and her work has now earned her an exclusive two year deal with Amazon.
It gives Amazon and its streaming services a first refusal option on any programmes that Horgan wants to make, via her own production company, Merman. Amazon also gets the rights to remake any previous Merman projects, of which Catastrophe is one.
There's no word yet on which projects in particular Horgan will pursue at Amazon. We'll let you know when we find out, though.

The U.S. Print Management Market: Growth through Innovation
 Jul 9, 2019
Keypoint Intelligence – InfoTrends' Customer Communications Advisory Service recently published an analysis piece exploring the U.S. print management market, its workflow challenges, and projections for growth. This blog focuses on the growth opportunities. Please read the full analysis if you're interested in learning more about the workflow challenges.
Sometimes known as "marketing execution services," "brand deployment," and "marketing print management," the print management market is a slice of the broader customer communications ecosystem that sees enterprise clients outsourcing print and related spending to a third-party provider (also known as a distributor or broker) who leverages a network of manufacturers to procure the company's printed marketing materials and promotional products. Through consolidated purchasing, print management providers offer cost savings and upgraded efficiencies that in-plants struggle to match, as well as a wider array of products, applications, and expertise than a single print manufacturer can manage.

In March we went to Harry Potter world. The kids loved it.
After that trip Tim and I bought the box set of all the Harry Potter books. Tim began reading a little bit to the kids every night. We have made it through the first two books now. Because of this, It should come as no surprise that Michael wanted to be Harry Potter for Halloween.
It timed out rather perfectly that we finished the 2nd Harry Potter book the weekend before Halloween. We made a weekend out of it. On Friday we made wands. On Saturday we went for a hike through the Dark Forest to look for clues of Aragog. And then on Saturday night we laid out a bunch of drink mixes and let the kids mix their own "potion drinks." I filled tiny cauldrons from the dollar spot at Target with "every flavor beans" and we had a Harry Potter movie night. We pulled out the bean bag bed, spread out blankets and cuddled up and watch Harry Potter battle Aragog and the Basilisk.
There couldn't have been a better lead up to wearing a Harry Potter costume. Michael was in character the minute he put on his cloak and grabbed his wand.
I made the cloak by altering a grim reaper pattern. The tie was ordered from The Tie Bar. The dress shirt was from Christmas last year and the sweater was thrifted from Once Upon a Child.
He was a great Harry Potter and I am excited to report that he wants to be Harry Potter again next year. Yes! Costume for 2015 done and done!

Jacob Eason's learning on the job as Georgia's starting quarterback was there for all to see week by week, game by game as his freshman season played out on the big stage of the SEC.
How he approached the position the six days of the week that weren't gameday while learning the "ins and outs" as he called it happened mostly behind the scenes.
"I've grown a tremendous amount, I feel it," Eason said after Georgia's 31-23 Liberty Bowl win over TCU.
For a five-star recruit, Eason's 55.1 percent completion percentage and uneven play may not have lived up to all the hype, but his first college season came with an offensive line that was inconsistent and an offensive coordinator in Jim Chaney who moved upstairs following a 4-4 start after running backs Nick Chubb and Sony Michel met with him about wanting to get the ball more.
The game began to slow down for Eason, according to Chaney, at about the eighth game of the season, which was against Florida, a 24-10 loss.
Eason's three worst games in passing efficiency (South Carolina, Ole Miss and Florida) came in the first eight games and his two best as a starter came in the final three (Louisiana-Lafayette and TCU).
"I'm comfortable with where he is," Chaney said before the bowl game. "His progression on team coverages is not quite where it needs to be yet, so we'll work continuously on that in the offseason as we approach spring football. There's development everywhere that needs to be done in Jacob's growth. His development from under center, seeing defenses is key for our progression."
Eason, who arrived in Athens a year ago this month, said that's an area he has improved already.
"Coming in at the beginning of the season seeing different defenses change before a snap, try to mess with me as a young quarterback," he said. "Definitely now I feel a lot more comfortable just because of the film work and the on the field work starting against our own defense, switching up stuff a bunch. Now I feel a tremendous amount better than I did at the beginning of the season."
Georgia coach Kirby Smart made a couple of national radio appearances last week to talk mostly about his former team, Alabama, playing a rematch with Clemson in Monday's national championship game, but he also was asked about Eason.
Smart said he met with him days earlier.
"I really think he's grown from start to finish," Smart said. "There were bumps in the road and there were times I questioned had he gotten better, had he done this better? If you look at the very start, all the way back to the North Carolina game to the very end in the bowl game being able to help get people lined up, decision-making, understanding formations, coverages, protections, he's come a long way."
It may not be a big jump and there were setbacks—like the two interception game against Georgia Tech when he completed just 14 of 27 passes, but Eason did complete 58.9 percent of his passes in the last five games compared to 53.1 percent in the first eight.
"He's learned to work throughout the fall," Chaney said. "Early on, it was good. Then, it got better and it got better and it got better. He's seen the benefits around working your issues. I've always said to outwork your fleas. When you're not sure of something, go to work. I believe that's what he's done here in the last month and it's really good for him. In the last five or six games of the season, he really put a lot of time in. He understands the importance of the game right now I think. Sometimes when you're young, there's a lot of stuff flying at you out there. It's tough to put yourself in those positions."
Eason will have the next couple of months before spring practice to look at what he did right and wrong in 2016 in a season in which he threw for 2,430 yards with 16 touchdowns and eight interceptions. He led the team to game-winning drives at Missouri and Kentucky and had a season-long 77-yard completion in the bowl to Isaiah McKenzie on a play he scrambled away from trouble.
All of which came after arriving from Lake Stevens High in Washington state and living the fishbowl life of a celebrity. He was well-known before stepping foot on campus as a college student.
"There really is such a thing as southern hospitality," Eason told the Everett (Wash.) Herald-Net last week. "Everybody has been so welcoming and I've made so many new friends in a short amount of time. The weather I could do without, with the (summer) heat and humidity, and then it gets pretty cold in January. But other than that, I'm loving it down here."
Eason will get to experience extremes this week with a low Monday of 25 and the forecast high Friday of 72.
Inside, he can watch game tape to examine what he can do to be better in 2017.
"I've definitely got a lot better at watching film," Eason said following the bowl win. "I've gotten a lot better (knowing) exactly what to watch, what keys to pick up on. That's a lot of credit to coach Smart, coach Chaney and Greyson Lambert and everybody in that quarterback room teaching me that stuff."
Lambert's college career is over. Eason's is still only 13 games old after an 8-5 season, the last 12 with him as the starter.
"I think he recognizes his deficiencies and areas he has to improve in," Smart said. "We're going to do everything we can to make sure he grows as a quarterback mentally. He took the challenge head on and he's very responsive to those challenges."

Growing evidence shows that preschool attendance increases young children's readiness for school by improving cognitive and social-emotional development and this can have lasting benefits beyond primary, especially for socially and economically disadvantaged students. However, there is less evidence on how many years of preschool are needed for the most cost-effective impact. The study in Bangladesh will measure the impact of starting preschool a year earlier, at age four rather than age five, giving children two years of preschool instead of one. The Government of Bangladesh has emphasized preprimary education as part of the development of children and currently offers one-year preprimary education to five-year old children. The results will help Bangladesh decide whether to move forward with recommendations in the national education and early childhood policy programs to increase preschool to two years.
Research area: Education
Country: Bangladesh
Evaluation Sample: schools
Timeline: 2016 - 2019
Intervention: preschool
Researchers: Johannes M. Bos, American Institutes for Research; Najmul Hossain, Data International; Marianne O'Grady, Save the Children; Josh Sennett; Kaitlin Carson; Shinsaku Nomura, World Bank Task Team Leader (TTL)
Save the Children has been running a one-year preschool program in 25 centers in Bangladesh's Meherpur district since the end of 2014. With the expansion of the program in 2016 to an additional 50 new centers, an opportunity was created to include a randomized control trial to measure the benefits of a pilot program adding an extra year of preschool.

Viewed from space the sun is supposedly a 'peach pinkish' colour, while the sunlight that hits the Earth is white. So why is the sky seen as being blue?

Fans of Counting On know that the Duggar family follows a set of super conservative rules that include no physical contact or kissing before marriage, modest clothing only for the women, no modern music, movies or television, and no social media until an engagement. Another family rule does not allow body modification of any kind, which means no tattoos or piercings. But, Jeremy Vuolo, Jinger Duggar's husband, didn't seem to get them memo about no tattoos.
Surprisingly, there is some body ink in the Duggar clan, but it belongs to people who aren't immediate family instead of those who were born into it. None of the original 19 kids have tattoos (that we know of), but there have been rumors.
The Duggars' opposition to tattoos comes from a verse in the Bible – a book the family attempts to follow to the letter – that states "Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print or tattoo any marks upon you: I am the Lord."
According to Romper, one Duggar-through-marriage that has tattoos is Vuolo, who has ink on the inside of his upper right arm which appears to be a line of text. Many believe it to be a Bible verse, but no one has actually been able to read it.
However, Jinger has recently posted a plethora of pics of the 30-year-old wearing short sleeves, and the tattoo has seemingly disappeared, which leads fans to believe he got it removed.
Jinger is known as the "Rebel Duggar," and her husband is not like the men her sisters married. He has a history that features a "bad boy streak," that includes an arrest in 2008 for physically harassing a police officer.
The former professional soccer player also attended a secular college and admitted to "partying" and "drinking" while getting his higher education.
Vuolo questioned Christianity many times during his upbringing but now refers to himself as a "born-again Christian," which means that he re-dedicated himself to the religion.
Another member of the family with permanent ink is Amy Duggar, also known as Cousin Amy. She and her husband, Dillon King, got matching tattoos back in 2016 that read, "Rest in the storm."
Amy, the first cousin of the famous 19 kids, took pics of her trip to the tattoo parlor and shared them on Instagram with a caption explaining the ink. She wrote that she and her husband would focus on God's promise and presence to enjoy shelter from the storms of life.
As for members of the immediate family, Jill has pierced her nose and experimented with body art by rocking henna tattoos, but it doesn't seem like she has any permanent ink yet.
Jeremy Vuolo and Jinger Duggar return with new episodes of Counting On later this summer on TLC.

Judgement Night – March 31
Motopoint Arena, Cardiff
James Wade v Gary Anderson
- Wade was without a game last week due to the fact he played twice in week two. His last match was a 7-4 win over Robert Thornton in week 7 which was also his 3rd consecutive win following successes against Chisnall and van Barneveld.
- Wade has averaged over 100 in each of his last 3 matches; he has averaged over 100 in 4 consecutive Premier League matches before but that was back in 2008 in his debut season.
- Wade has only failed to have a checkout of 100 or more in 2 of the 8 matches he has played so far. In his last 4 matches he has had a total of 8 three figure checkouts.
- At the weekend he suffered a defeat in his first match at the German Darts Masters, losing 6-4 to eventual semi-finalist Joe Cullen.
- Anderson made it 6 wins in a row when he defeated Chisnall 7-4 last week. It was another consistent performance from him with his scoring being the impressive feature, his cover shots in particular working very well.
- The run of 6 wins in a row is the best Anderson has ever had in the Premier League and means he has now won 10 of his last 12 matches in the competition.
- Anderson had the highest weekly checkout last week with a 144 finish, this was the first time he had the highest weekly checkout since April 2014 and meant he was the 7th different player to have the highest weekly checkout from the opening 8 weeks.
- In the Euro Tour event last weekend he averaged over 106 in beating Gurney 6-1, then followed this up with a 101.66 average in the defeat of O'Connor. But he surprisingly exited in the quarter-finals when he was whitewashed 6-0 by Joe Cullen having only averaged 79.17.
Head to Head
Anderson has a big lead in their head to head win record having won 26 and lost 11 (they have also drawn once). Wade has failed to win in his last 10 matches against Anderson and has lost 9 of those matches. The last 4 matches have all seen Anderson pick up comfortable wins with Wade winning a combined total of 10 legs to Anderson's 36.
Recent meetings between Anderson and Wade have been very much in favour of Anderson and it's hard to ignore these facts when analysing this match. There is no doubt Wade is capable of beating Anderson but it's how much he believes it after such a run that may be a factor.
I think Anderson will edge this game, my betting preferences are: Anderson to win with Wade winning at least 4 legs and also Wade to have a checkout of over 96.5 during the match.
Michael Smith v Phil Taylor
- Smith sits at the bottom of the table following his 7-5 defeat to Robert Thornton last week. Smith trailed 5-2 in that match but managed to haul himself level at 5-5. He then had a dart at a double to take a point but Thornton stepped in and hit the winning double to take the crucial two points.
- Smith has to win or draw to keep alive his chances of avoiding elimination, his fate though is really out of his own hands as if both Chisnall and Thornton win whatever Smith does in his game doesn't matter.
- He managed to hit 4x 180s last week for the third time in this year's Premier League, during his first 4 matches he managed a total of 7x 180s in his last 4 matches he has managed a total of 14.
- Smith had a good run to the semi-finals at the German Darts Masters at the weekend; he defeated de Graaf, Wilson and White before losing to Peter Wright. It was the furthest he has progressed in a ranking tournament since reaching the Grand Slam semis last November.
- Last week Taylor drew his second match in a row, his 6-6 draw against Wright extended his unbeaten run to 7 matches and he is level on points with van Gerwen and Anderson at the top of the table. Whilst Taylor will have been relieved to take a draw against MVG in week 6 he will have been disappointed to let the lead slip against Wright having led 6-4 he missed 4 darts to seal a 7-4 win before Wright took the final 2 legs.
- Taylor posted another average of over 100 last week which was the seventh week in a row he has done so. Overall he has had an average of over 100 in 11 of his last 12 Premier League matches.
- His highest checkout last week of 141 was his highest in this year's competition and it was in fact his highest Premier League checkout since week three last year.
- Taylor wasn't in action at the weekend, he didn't enter the tournament, haven chosen to skip both of the opening two Euro events.
Head to Head
In their past meetings Taylor has won 9 matches with Smith winning 3 times. Five of their encounters have been on the TV stage with Taylor winning 4 of these, Smith's most famous win over Taylor came at the World Championships in December 2013.
This is a crucial match for Smith as he needs to pick up a positive result to keep alive his hopes of staying in the league, the task ahead of him is very difficult though with Taylor on a 7 match unbeaten run in the league and he has averaged over 100 in each of those 7 matches, Smith's highest league average has been in the mid 90's so he will need Taylor to regress or he will have to improve.
I expect Taylor to be too strong for Smith and I am predicting a 7-3 or 7-4 win which will end Smith's participation in this year's Premier League though I am sure he will be back in the future.
Dave Chisnall v Peter Wright
- Chisnall is without a win since the opening week and has now lost each of his last 5 matches following a 7-4 defeat to Gary Anderson last week. Chisnall's average against Anderson was 100.01 but missed doubles proved costly as he finished with a checkout percentage of 21%.
- In each of the last 5 weeks his opponents have averaged over 102 and his opponents have hit a combined total of 11 three figure checkouts in those matches.
- This is the second time he has lost 5 Premier League matches in a row; he lost 5 in a row during the 2014 season.
- The fate of Chisnall is out of his hands as if Thornton wins his match even a win for Chisnall wouldn't be enough. But on the other hand if Smith was to lose or draw and if Thornton loses a draw for Chisnall would be enough to take him through. So all Chisnall can do is try and win and hope results work in his favour.
- Chisnall lost in the Last 16 at the German Darts Masters last weekend. He was defeat 6-4 by the unseeded Chris Dobey, it was a below par performance from Chizzy as he averaged 89.68 but his opponent was very impressive averaging over 102 and hitting 7x 180's.
- Wright ended a run of 3 consecutive defeats with his 6-6 draw against Phil Taylor last week, though he is still without a win in his 5 matches. It certainly must have felt like a point gained against Taylor, he was 6-4 down and was grateful that Taylor missed 4 darts to win 7-4, Wright took out a 111 checkout to take the game to a final leg and went out in 13 darts in that final leg to snatch a point.
- He has averaged over 100 in each of his last 4 matches in the Premier League, this is the best run of averages he has had since he made his Premier League debut in 2014.
- In total Wright has only won 4 of his last 20 matches in the Premier League.
- Wright reached the final at the German Darts Masters last weekend. He came up against van Gerwen in the final and lost 6-4 having led 3-1 and 4-2.
Head to Head
Chisnall leads their head to head win record with 9 wins to 5 (they have also drawn once). In their last 6 matches he has won 4 and lost 2 and he is also unbeaten in their 3 matches in the Premier League. Wright did win their last meeting which was at the World Championships back in December; it was a very tight game going to a final set with not much at all to separate the two players.
Chisnall is facing elimination and knows that even a win might not be enough to save him but all he can do is try and win and hope things fall in his favour. Chisnall has lost his last 5 Premier League matches, all his opponents have averaged over 102 in those matches which show what he has been up against but he hasn't been at his best and he didn't play well in defeat at the weekend. Wright is without a win in 5 Premier League matches and has been up against opponents in fine form too but I believe he has still been playing to a higher level than Chisnall and make Wright the favourite to win this match.
My betting preference is for Wright to win with Chisnall winning 4 or more legs.
Robert Thornton v Adrian Lewis
- Thornton gave himself a lifeline of avoiding elimination when he picked up 3 points from his 2 matches last week. He started the night with a tight 7-5 win over Michael Smith (which was his first win in this year's Premier League), and then he defied the odds to hold Michael van Gerwen to a draw, MVG wasn't at his best but take nothing away from Thornton who battled hard and pressured MVG throughout.
- Thornton could be in a position where he knows he will be safe from elimination by the time he takes to the stage for this match. Should Chisnall and Smith both lose then he will be guaranteed to avoid a bottom two finish. Chisnall and Smith both winning would put pressure on Thornton to get a positive result against Lewis.
- Thornton suffered defeat in his first match at the German Darts Masters last weekend, he lost 6-4 to Chris Dobey, it wasn't a bad performance from Thornton but he came up against a player on form and averaging over 100.
- Lewis managed to scramble a 7-5 win over van Barneveld last week in a game full of twists and turns. The finishing of Lewis gave him the edge despite van Barneveld outscoring him.
- Lewis failed to average over 100 against van Barneveld; overall he has only averaged over 100 in 4 of his last 17 matches in the Premier League.
- He lost in the Last 16 at the German Darts Masters last weekend. His defeat came against the unseeded James Richardson, Lewis wasn't at his best but he did also run into a player on fine form.
Head to Head
Lewis has a very good record against Thornton having won 18 of their 23 meetings. Thornton has only won 2 of their last 18 encounters going back to 2009. All four of their Premier League matches have gone to the 12th and final leg. Lewis has won two of these, Thornton has won one and they have drawn once.
It's a difficult match to predict as Thornton could be under big pressure to get a result or he may know he is safe already and be able to play with some freedom. The head to head stats are certainly very much in favour of Lewis so he will have a big psychological edge over Thornton. There have been enough signs in recent weeks that Thornton's confidence is returning so he should be able to push Lewis hard and I don't anticipate either player racing away so we may have another tight Premier League meeting between the pair. I have no strong preference on the match, I think Lewis might just take it 7-5.
Raymond van Barneveld v Michael van Gerwen
van Barneveld
- Against Lewis last week Barney suffered his 4th 7-5 defeat of the Premier League season. Barney scored well throughout the match but struggled to win legs when he was in a strong positon to do so and he has now lost 4 of his last 5 Premier League matches.
- On the positive side for van Barneveld he is 1 point better off than he was at this stage of last season's Premier League and he still went on to make the play-offs but on that occasion he won 6 and drew 2 of his last 8 matches and to repeat that would be some feat.
- van Barneveld wasn't present at the German Darts Masters last weekend, he failed to qualify for the tournament having lost in the qualifiers back in January.
van Gerwen
- van Gerwen drew his 2nd Premier League match in succession last week when he was held to a draw by Robert Thornton. It wasn't a performance up to the standards he had been producing in recent weeks and his match average was 97.57, his lowest of the season.
- Not only was the 97.57 his lowest average in this year's Premier League season it was also his lowest for 18 Premier League matches and only the 3rd time he had averaged under 100 in his last 19 matches in the Premier League.
- Last weekend was another weekend with a tournament win for van Gerwen; he won the German Darts Masters defeating Peter Wright in the final. MVG never hit top form throughout the tournament and Wright wasted a good chance to defeat van Gerwen having led 3-1 and 4-2 before van Gerwen ran out a 6-4 winner.
Head to Head
As you would expect there have been plenty of past meetings between van Barneveld and van Gerwen, altogether they have played 39 times with van Gerwen 23-16 ahead on matches won. Barney did win their last encounter which was at the World Championships at the end of last year, and over their last 6 matches they have shared 3 wins each.
Always plenty of pride at stake when these two Dutchmen meet on the big stage. Although van Gerwen does have an advantage on their past meetings Barney has proven he can mix it with MVG and will be motivated to beat him again. MVG hasn't looked as sharp over the past week or so, although he managed to win the German Darts Masters at the weekend he won't be as dominant as he has been this year if he plays to that level. I wouldn't rule out van Barneveld pushing van Gerwen all the way here and snatching a draw.
My betting preferences on the match are over 10.5 legs in the match and van Barneveld with a checkout of over 86.5.
