Here is the latest information for parents/carers from the DfE.
Below is an example of a home schooling routine. It is only one example and is by no means a definitive list of what to do. it is however, a guide as to how a day might be spent with your child. It needs to be adapted to suit your family and their individual requirements and obviously younger children would have a different end to the day.
Mrs Boyes would like all the children to have a go at writing a short story to link in with International Children's Book Day on the 2nd April. It can be about anything you like and as imaginative as you want. You can email them to school, post them to school or even take a screen shot and email that. The teachers will read them all and one person from each class will receive a prize. Good luck and enjoy writing!
The Friends of Hertford Vale School have asked us to send you this letter. Thank you.
Below is the update sent out to parents/carers on 31st March 2020.
Hello to you all.
We thought a message was in order seeing as it's been a couple of days since the last update.
We haven't had any new advice or news from the DfE other than the information sent out on the 24th, which we passed onto you. We have attached the latest poster from Public Health England on how to stop the spread of the virus in school and thought it might be useful for you to look at.
At the moment, the staff are in school on a rota basis due to the drastically reduced numbers. They are in good health and are missing the children. An empty school is a strange place indeed.
We have been carrying out extra cleaning duties as you would expect and all areas are being disinfected when they have been used so that the staff in school the following day are entering a safe working environment.
We have no idea how long this situation will continue and like a lot of you, we are looking forward to when life returns to something considered more normal. However, in order to keep everyone safe we will carefully follow instructions from the DfE, Public Health England and NYCC. If there is anything we need to pass onto you all we will do so straight away.
As you may be aware, the phone lines are not working in the village at the moment so if you need to get in touch please use the school email address or the text service.
Thank you,
Andrew Barber.
Hello to you all.
The DfE has just sent out an update. The arrangements for schools have not changed and we have been instructed to carry on for the rest of the week as we have yesterday and today.
NYCC has been in touch to tell us the same and that they are closely monitoring the number of children and staff in each school. We are in daily contact with NYCC and will pass any relevant information onto you as it comes through.
If you are contacted by anyone other than us about free school meals, please ignore it. We have been informed that there is a scam circulating asking for bank details. Please do not give any of your personal details out to anyone.
School is very quiet and we are missing the daily buzz of children, parents and staff. However, keeping safe is the main priority and following the Prime Minister's speech yesterday, the message is very clear in terms of staying at home.
If there is any news from the government or NYCC over the evening or tomorrow, we will be in touch. Until then, take care and look after each other.
We wanted to say a huge thank you to all the parents and carers in our school community. The response from people has been extremely sensible and as a result the numbers of children due to come in this week are very low. Your thoughtfulness towards others will inevitably help keep the spread of the virus to a minimum in our community. We will keep you up to date of any further news from the DfE.
Take care and stay safe.
Thank you.
Here is a list of websites and apps that you can access from home. It is an initial set of resources that are available at the moment. Things will change as the situation progresses and we will be in touch, Thank you.
Just a quick update on the school closure from tomorrow - 23.3.2020.
The attached information is from North Yorkshire County Council. It states that sending children into school next week is a last resort and that they should be kept at home if at all possible. Please think very carefully before bringing your child in tomorrow.
Thank you.
Dear Parents/Carers.
We are currently preparing a list of resources for you to access at home whilst the school is partially closed.
This list will consist of mainly free resources that you can share with your children. It will not be a definitive list and there will be many other resources you will see online and hear about but it will give you varied activities to have a go at.
We will send this list out as soon as possible in time for Monday for those children who will not be in school.
Thank you.
Dear Parents/Carers.
We have been asked by North Yorkshire County Council to remind parents/carers that the GOV.UK website says :
'…….. the government has asked parents to keep their children at home, wherever possible, and asked schools to remain open only for those children who absolutely need to attend'
North Yorkshire County Council has also issued some advice and says :
'It is vital to understand that we MUST keep the numbers of children school to a minimum so we minimise the risk of Coronavirus spreading back to loved ones at home. We must remember that the children in school are to be the most vulnerable and possibly the most at risk- being children of the frontline workers. The more children, the more risk to the teachers and their families too and therefore to the community at large. Therefore, we are sure you understand, we are putting strict checks in place to keep pupils to an ABSOLUTE minimum.'
Thank you for letting us know if you are on the key worker list and intend to bring your children in on Monday morning. If you have not informed us of your intentions, we are assuming that your children will not be in on Monday morning.
Please do not bring your children in on Monday without having informed us first as the provision will not be in place.
We are working with parents/carers on an individual basis and want to be as clear as possible about what we can and cannot do during this difficult time.
We will follow government advice carefully to ensure that all members of our school community are protected as much as possible.
Thank you for your understanding and for following the information the government has issued to you as parents/carers.
Dear Parents/Carers,
Following the release of the governments Key Worker list last night, we are now better placed to move forward with our plans for next week.
North Yorkshire County Council have asked us for a list of parents who fall into one or more of the key workers categories.
The advice from NYCC is still
- If it is at all possible for children to be at home, then they should be.
- If a child needs specialist support, is vulnerable or has a parent who is a critical worker, then educational provision will be available for them. But, there is no requirement for parents to take up the offer of a school place
We now need you to tell us if you think you are classed as a key worker. We also need to know if you will be accessing the provision in school as some key workers have already told us that they will not be sending their children in. Information from central government has yet to be released as to whether one or both parents/carers need to be on the list to be able to access the provision in school.
We are aware of most families and their individual needs but you might feel that you are eligible after reading the list. We will need to know what your current employment is and at some point we may need proof of this for our records.
If you could please let Mrs Blogg know this information by 1pm via the school email on email@example.com then we can make arrangements for Monday. You can also text the school on 07786 207779 with the same information.
As usual the information that school needs from the DfE is not totally clear so we will be in touch should things change during the day.
The main thing we need from you at the moment is to know if you think you are on the key worker list and if you will be sending your children into school next week.
Thank you.
Dear Parents/Carers.
As we said yesterday, we are waiting for the Cabinet Office to inform the DfE about which parents will be on the 'Key Worker' list. Until this list has been released, North Yorkshire County Council cannot make any final plans for the next few weeks. Like you, we are waiting for clarification from central government on what yesterday's announcement means and how it will affect the children and school community.
However, school will be open as usual tomorrow. If your child is exhibiting any of the symptoms of the Covid 19 virus, please follow the guidance we sent out yesterday.
When the DfE informs NYCC of the 'Key Worker' list, they will then in turn give us some further guidance and we hope this will be during the working day tomorrow. As we have said before, we will pass any news onto you as soon as we have it ourselves.
Below is the latest information from the DfE that came out this afternoon.
Thank you.
Dear Parents and Carers.
We thought it best to send an update following the government's news briefing this afternoon. Both the Prime Minister and Education Secretary have announced school closures from this Friday. Since then we have received communication from the local authority advising us that they will be meeting tomorrow to discuss the Prime Minister's briefing.
The implications of what was announced needs to be worked through over the next two days and North Yorkshire County Council have asked us to be available to provide essential information. This will allow them to create a plan which we will then pass onto you. We will use the usual means of communication, the school website, school app and the text service to communicate new information.
We understand that you will want to know what is happening but in order for the local authority and school to be able to plan ahead we would appreciate essential calls to the office only. Every member of staff will need to focus on the children, planning ahead and your support in this will be greatly appreciated.
As soon as we know anything, we will pass this information onto you. We have done our best to get information out to you all as soon as possible over the last few weeks and will continue to do so.
School is open as normal tomorrow and we greatly value your cooperation in working to provide a safe and calm atmosphere for the children.
Thank you.
Here is the latest information from the DfE. Please take time to read through the information. Thank you.
You may be aware that the Welsh and Scottish governments have announced that their schools will be closed by Friday of this week. As yet, our government has not made an announcement in terms of what their plans are for schools in England.
The Education Secretary Gavin Williamson has said he will make a statement later on today. Depending on what is in his statement we will need time to process the information in school tomorrow. Once we are aware of our plans based on this announcement, we will communicate with you via the app, website and text service.
It has been said before, these are unusual times and we are acting on advice from central government as soon as possible. Today the DfE has not communicated any further information on the coronavirus. Therefore we are acting on yesterday's information in terms of what to do if you suspect your child displays symptoms associated with coronavirus.
Unless we say otherwise, school is open as usual tomorrow. Thank you for your continued support.
Here is the latest information from the DfE. Please take time to read through the information. Thank you.
Here is the latest information from the Department for Education (DfE). It was sent out this afternoon. The advice from North Yorkshire County Council (NYCC) is also based on the same information.
Schools are remaining open at the moment and unless your child has the symptoms described in the attached advice, they should still come to school.
As information comes into school we will share it with you as soon as possible. Communication is essential in situations such as this and we will endeavour to do our best to let you know what is happening.
This evening is the first of the parent/carer meetings this half term.
If you have an appointment with your child's teacher this evening, please use the main entrance and wait in the school hall for the class teacher to come and get you. This system worked well last term and feedback from parents said it was preferable to waiting in the corridors.
We will also be asking you to complete a quick questionnaire about the school. This can be done before you see the class teacher, afterwards or you can complete it at home and send it in later. These are anonymous and will help us to know what you think about the school and if there is anything we need to focus on in the future.
We are looking forward to seeing you tonight or Monday 2nd.
The Department for Education (DfE) has issued updated information and advice on the Coronavirus. Public Health England advises that the risk to individuals in the UK remains low and the GOV.UK website has all the information released as of today. Thank you.
Below is some information sent to schools from the Department for Education (DfE). The attached flyer is displayed in the school foyer for you to look at if the download does not work.
You should not be unduly worried about the possibility of your children catching the Coronavirus.
There is no reason why your children should not continue to attend their early years, school or further education setting as normal.
We recognise that some families or children may be planning to travel to China during the forthcoming half term period. If so, please refer to the FCO's latest travel advice via the link below.
The end of term Easter Worships will be taking place in St Peter's Church, Willerby this year. Due to the amazing number of parents/carers who attend each service, we will be holding two separate services to accommodate everyone.
The Key Stage 1 children in Mrs Kenyon's and Ms Wiles' classes will have their Easter Worship on Monday 30th March at 1:45pm.
The Key Stage 2 children in Mrs Boyes', Miss Dodds' and Mr Palmer's classes will host their Worship on Wednesday 1st April at 1:45pm.
We will walk the children down to St Peter's church in time for the start of the service and walk them back to school afterwards. Children can then be collected from school if parents/carers would like to, otherwise the children will stay in school until the end of the school day at 3:20pm.
Reverend Tim Parker will lead the services and we look forward to seeing you at St Peter's Church.
We have been asked by Scarborough Borough Council to pass this information onto families in case they are interested in entering the competition below. For further information please follow the link
Please could parents/carers leave a message with the school office if there is a change of person collecting your child? In order to keep all the children safe, we need to know if there is a change of plan on a daily basis.
Most parents are very good at letting us know if someone else will be collecting their child by leaving a message on the phone, sending a text to the school or speaking to someone in the office.
However, we have recently had some confusion at the end of the school day when there has been a change of plan and staff were not sure who was collecting the children. By keeping us up to date with who will be collecting the children, we are better placed to keep them safe.
Also, if you wish anyone to be added to your list of designated adults who can collect your children, please let Mrs Blogg in the office know and we will add them to the names on our files.
Thank you.
Tomorrow is party day for all the classes in school. Mrs Kenyon's, Mrs Boyes', Miss Dodd's and Mr Palmer's classes can wear party clothes if they would like. This is essentially non uniform so there's no need to buy anything special and the children can also wear school uniform if they would prefer. The Key Stage 2 children do not need to bring anything in for their parties. Mrs Kenyon's and Miss Wiles' classes have already had some information about their parties but if you need any clarification please contact the school office.
Can we also please ask that the children wear sensible shoes so that they are safe when playing outside.
Thank you.
Below is the lunch menu for the Spring Term.
Here is the poster for the non uniform day on Friday 22nd November. The Friends of Hertford Vale School are requesting that children bring something in for the Christmas Fair chocolate tombola stall taking place on the 6th December in school. The children do not need to bring in any money, just a small chocolate gift. Thank you
Below is the poster for the Friends of Hertford Vale Christmas Fair taking place on Friday 6th December. We hope to see you then.
The school app and website calendar have been updated with dates for the run up to Christmas.
Below is a letter sent out to the parents/carers of the children in Mrs Kenyon's class and Ms Wiles' class. A paper copy is available in the office should you need one.
There will be a chance for you to attend the second of our whole school open mornings this half term. The school will be open for parents/carers and the community on Friday the 25th October. You will be most welcome to look round all the classes between 9:00am and 10:00am, spend time with the children and see what has been happening this half term. We look forward to seeing you next week.
The Friends of Hertford Vale are hosting a movie night on Wednesday 23rd November. The £2 entrance fee can be paid at the door on the day.
Dear Parents/Carers.
As you know, this Friday is the whole school open morning for you to have a look round the school. It is also the Macmillan coffee morning and our special 30th Anniversary picnic for the children at lunch time. You will be most welcome to spend time in school from 10:15 to 11:30am.
We are hoping that the coffee morning is as successful as last year but we need your help to do this. If you would be able to help out during the coffee morning or bake something to sell we would be most grateful. We are looking forward to the visit from the Bishop of Hull and would like to welcome as many people to look round the school, enjoy a cake or two and to spend time with the children. Your cake donations can be brought into school at any time this week.
If you have a half hour to spare by helping with the refreshments on the day, please let Mrs Blogg in the office know. We are hoping to see as many of you as possible you on the day from 10:15 to 11:30am.
Thank you,
Andrew Barber.
As part of our healthy eating curriculum, we are encouraging children to bring in healthy snacks for playtimes and in their packed lunches. Children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 receive free healthy snacks as part of their five a day due to a government scheme. Unfortunately, the older children do not receive free fruit and vegetables but are welcome to bring in healthy snacks for morning playtime if you so wish.
Chocolate and sweets are not recommended as a healthy school snack. Please also be aware that some snacks which are marketed as healthy may be misleading. One example is fruit rolls as they contain roughly 37% sugar which is nearly four times that found in an apple, so careful reading of the ingredients is advised.
If you are unsure about what to put in a packed lunch, our guidelines are on the website under the 'Policies' tab. If you require any guidance on what is classed as a healthy snack, please ask us in school and we will be more than happy to advise you.
Thank you.
The Friends of Hertford Vale School are holding a summer fair after Sports Day on Friday. The children's sports events will start at 1:45pm on Friday and the summer fair will be held after the races have finished. Feel free to bring your own chairs for watching the races. We're looking forward to seeing you all on the day.
Dear Parents/Carers.
Thank you to those parents who park considerately when droping and collecting their children from school. We are still witnessing a small number of cases where cars are being parked on the zig zag lines on both roads next to the school.
This poster was created by children at a school in Huddersfield as part of a safety campaign. We thought it was a very graphic way to remind us all as to why the lines are there and to reconsider where we leave our cars before, during and after the school day.
Thank you for your support in keeping the roads safe around school and to being considerate when parking in the village.
Andrew Barber.

Everything about Canadian singer Mappe Of is wrapped in mystery. His real name, while not exactly a state secret, is never mentioned anywhere on his website or press releases. Likewise Mappe Of's debut album, A Northern Star, A Perfect Stone, out July 28, which is just as ethereal and vaporous as the album's smoky and smudged cover art.
Musically, Mappe Of is hard to pigeonhole into a genre label. The fingerpicked acoustic guitar that anchors every song is straight Americana. The swelling synth backgrounds and synth-laden vocals on some tracks are pure Bon Iver. The random noises, such as what sounds suspiciously like a morse code signal on "Cavern's Dark", evoke memories of Thomas Dolby's more atmospheric cuts, like "Budapest By Blimp."
Lyrically, Mappe Of is even more opaque. While his songs are filled with wandering vagabonds, a dying man slowly losing his memory, cats in Adelaide, and plenty of people struggling to find their place in a world singularly cruel to the mentally ill or just eternally odd, it takes multiple listens to get there. The lyrics on A Northern Star, A Perfect Stone play like a fever dream, with snatches of coherence interspersed with vague references that dance at the corners of understanding, glimpsed peripherally but never fully seen.
Mappe Of also keeps the surprises coming with his strange choices of instrumentation. There is no traditional drum kit on any of the songs, but plenty of percussion offered subtly by the guitars, bones, and hands beating upon whatever surface is at hand. Elsewhere, Mappe Of brings in instruments like horns, a kalimba, and an autoharp. The songs border on discordance, but never quite fall over that precipice, only enhancing the sensory overload.
Is A Northern Star, A Perfect Stone one of the best albums of 2017? Probably not. But it's one of the most intriguing. In its press release, Mappe Of stated his goal was to "create a setting where you can lose yourself. The ideal record for me is where you can lie back on your bed and listen to the thing front to back and be taken somewhere." And in that goal, Mappe Of has been very successful.

From Washington to China, a pouring of grief for former President Aquino
August 2, 2009 12:14 pm
By Gloria Jane Baylon
MANILA, Aug. 2 Condolences from the White House in Washington, D.C. to foreign missions such as the Chinese Embassy in Manila keep pouring for the late former President Corazon C. Aquino, first woman Head of State of the Philippines and the icon of reinvigorated democracy in the country.
United States President Barack Obama, who met with Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo just two days before Mrs. Aquinos demise, said the former Presidents courage, determination, and moral leadership are an inspiration to us all and exemplify the best in the Filipino nation.
President Obamas condolences were issued through White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs.
He said Aquino had a crucial role in Philippine history, moving the country to democratic rule through her non-violent 'People Power' movement over twenty years ago. Her courage, determination, and moral leadership are an inspiration to us all and exemplify the best in the Filipino nation.
"On behalf of the American people, the President extends his deepest condolences to the Aquino family and the nation of the Philippines.
The Chinese government and the Chinese people feel deep regrets over her death," Chinese President Hu Jintao said in a statement of condolence sent through Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu.
"Mrs. Aquino is an outstanding leader of the Philippines, and she is also a good friend of the Chinese people," Hu said.
The Chinese Embassy, represented by Ambassador Liu Jianchao, said they are deeply saddened, and expressed that the Philippines lost an inspiring statesman while China, in sharp grief, bereaved of a sincere friend.
An embassy statement said President Aquino made great efforts in developing China-Philippines friendly relations. Her vision would be remembered and her contribution would be long cherished by China and the Chinese people. May she rest in peace.
From U.S. Department of State Secretary Hillary Clinton came "deepest condolences" with a personal touch, as she mentioned how "Bill (husband and former President Bill Clinton) and I were inspired by her quiet strength and her unshakable commitment to justice and freedom."
"Cory Aquino was beloved by her nation and admired by the world for her extraordinary courage after the assassination of her husband, and later, during her service as president.
"She helped bring democracy back to the Philippines after many years of authoritarian rule with a faith in her country and its people that never wavered.
"Like millions of people worldwide, Bill and I were inspired by her quiet strength and her unshakable commitment to justice and freedom. We join the American and Filipino people in honoring her life and memory."
U.S. Ambassador Kristie A. Kenney extended condolences for the U.S. Embassy in Manila, saying President Aquino's example and memory will inspire generations to come.
"Our deepest sympathy, thoughts, and prayers are with the Aquino family and all those who, like us, loved her.
After her husband was assassinated in 1983, President Aquino's determined leadership of the peaceful 'People Power' revolution restored democracy to the Philippines. Her courage in the face of tragedy and the peaceful restoration of democracy made her an icon for freedom-loving people everywhere. President Aquino's example and memory will inspire generations to come."
Cory worked closely with the U.S. Embassy in the annual Ninoy Aquino Fellowships for public service and journalism.
"We will deeply miss her personal warmth and her tireless zeal on behalf of talented Filipinos emerging as leaders in those fields."
The United Kingdom reiterated its condolences, after falsely sending one earlier in the week while Mrs. Aquino was still hovering between life and death at a Makati City hospital. It had apologized for that faux pas, sent by former Foreign Office Minister Lord Malloch Brown, who worked closely with Mrs Aquino during her election campaign.
This time, Foreign Minister of State Ivan Lewis, MP, extended the British government's condolences to the Aquino family.
Brown added: "I received the news of Corazon Aquino's death with great sadness. As an advisor in her campaign against President Marcos, the privilege of working with Cory and watching her was one of my life's greatest lessons in courage, leadership, the art of politics and humanity. The way she and all her family made such friends of me as an outsider is something I have always treasured."
British Ambassador Peter Beckingham added: "I had the honor and pleasure of meeting former President Aquino on several occasions, when we were able to discuss her visits to London and her interests in members of the Filipino community in Britain, especially those serving in the Church. Those discussions left me with an overwhelming sense of her grace, charisma and compassion. The Philippines has lost a wonderful leader who is widely admired in Britain for her courage and inspiration."
In a note verbale to the DFA, the European Union transmitted a message from EU President Jose Manuel Barroso to President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, expressing the deepest sympathy in Aquino's death.
On his part, Ambassador Alistair MacDonald, head of the EC Delegation in Manila, said his heartfelt condolences and deepest sympathy go to the family of President Aquino, and to the Philippine nation, on this very sad occasion.
In 1986, President Aquino became a beacon of democracy in the Philippines, and an inspiration for many others around the world. Throughout her Presidential term, and notwithstanding a number of severe challenges, she never flinched in her determination to ensure that the Philippines would not veer from its democratic path." (PNA)

NDP Leader Jack Layton died early Monday morning after announcing just weeks ago that he was fighting a new form of cancer, and just months after leading his party to its most successful federal election result ever.
Layton was 61 years old.
The New Democratic Party issued a statement Monday on behalf of Layton's wife Olivia Chow, and his children Sarah and Michael Layton.
"We deeply regret to inform you that The Honourable Jack Layton, leader of the New Democratic Party of Canada, passed away at 4:45 a.m. today, Monday, Aug. 22," the statement said.
"He passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by family and loved ones."
Layton's death is not only heartbreaking in how quickly it came after he announced his illness on July 25, but that it came so soon after what is considered Layton's greatest political achievement.
After an entire life spent in politics -- first as an academic, then as a city councillor, then in federal politics -- Layton had been riding a wave of popularity ahead of his death. It was his personal popularity that many credit for the NDP's "orange crush" in the 2011 federal election. Buoyed by his party's success, Layton had even put the prime minister's office in his sights for the next election.
Now, with his death, those dreams come to an end and put the very future of his party into doubt.
While not everyone agreed with Layton's socialist views, there were few who didn't respect the man's passion and work ethic.
The politician who had once been a scrappy city councillor with a brash, sometimes strident style, matured into a federal party leader renowned for his dedication.
Layton's colleagues say he was a master politician who knew how to both work a crowd and work out compromise within his team. All the while, he seemed to never abandon the causes he held most dear: poverty, the environment, public transit, workers' rights.
In the 2011 election, voters who had once seemed a little wary of the camera-loving politician appeared to finally connect with Layton, embracing his energy, his no-nonsense approach and his promises to represent the average Canadian in Parliament.
Many voters, particularly in Quebec, said it was Layton himself that drew them to vote for his party and push the NDP into official Opposition status.
Layton had likely dreamed of reaching the higher echelons of power his whole life. He had been steeped in politics from an early age, growing up in Hudson, Que., under a father who was a cabinet minister in Brian Mulroney's government and who became the Progressive Conservatives' caucus chairman.
Layton's grandfather too was a cabinet minister, under Maurice Duplessis' Union Nationale government in Quebec, and his great-great-uncle was one of the Fathers of Confederation. The Layton political legacy continues today, with his son, Mike, now a Toronto city councillor as well.
Layton became student council leader in high school and was voted by classmates as most likely to become a politician. He went on to study political science at McGill University and received his PhD in Political Science from York University.
He briefly aligned himself with the Liberals while at McGill but, impressed by Tommy Douglas's opposition to the War Measures Act, he turned to the NDP in 1971.
Layton married at 19, wedding his high school sweetheart, Sally Halford. They had two children: Mike, the Toronto city councillor; and Sarah, who works for the Stephen Lewis Foundation.
But his marriage to Sally dissolved in 1983, shortly after Layton decided to leave behind life as a politics professor at Ryerson University (then called Ryerson Polytechnical Institute) and make a run for Toronto city council.
A few years later, Layton met Olivia Chow, who was then a school board trustee, and married her in 1988. She ran for Toronto city council in 1991, the same year that Layton decided to make a bid for mayor. Layton lost badly to June Rowlands; but Chow won her council seat.
Many have credited Chow, an ambitious politician in her own right, as being one of Layton's greatest assets, acting as both his closest adviser and his soulmate. Former Toronto city councillor Howard Moscoe told The Canadian Press he always thought of Layton and Chow as a single political-family unit.
"They were so good at playing the council," he said earlier this year. "They were kind of meant for each other."
Together, Layton and Chow became Toronto's political power couple, fighting for public transit, the homeless and sustainable urban development. As councillors, they were often accused of grandstanding, once wearing black gags to protest being silenced by other Toronto politicians when they attempted to object to a deal with Shell Oil.
Layton loved to spend time in the outdoors with Chow and cycled to work every day while in Toronto and worked out in the House of Commons gym every week while in Ottawa. NDP MP Pat Martin once said that Layton and Chow even thought of their work as recreation.
"I've never met anybody so perfectly matched to a life in politics," Martin said of Layton.
But Layton did have some brushes with controversy. In 1988, he came under fire when it emerged that he and Chow were living in a housing co-operative subsidized by the federal government, despite a combined income of $120,000. Toronto's solicitor cleared the couple of any wrong-doing, and the couple soon left the co-op and bought a house in Toronto's Chinatown.
In the 2011 election, three days before voting day, it emerged that Layton had also been caught up in a sting on a Toronto massage parlour. Layton insisted he had entered the salon seeking a legitimate shiatsu massage and didn't know the place was used for "illicit purposes." Police chose not to charge him in the sting.
Despite the scandals and Layton's failed 1991 mayoralty bid, his ambitions didn't falter; they simply shifted. In 1994, he decided to make a run for federal politics, vying for a seat in the riding of Rosedale. Again, he fared badly, finishing fourth.
He pressed on with his Toronto city council duties, but in another example of his trademark energy, he also took on work as well as the head of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, where he said he broadened his understanding of the priorities of towns outside Toronto.
Along the way, Layton also penned three books; "Homelessness: the Making and Unmaking of a Crisis" in 2000; "Speaking Out: Ideas That Work for Canadians" in 2004 and "Speaking Out Louder" in 2006.
He ran again for MP in 1997, this time in the riding of Toronto-Danforth but lost yet again, to longtime incumbent Liberal, Dennis Mills. Layton was finally able to make his move into federal politics in 2003 by taking over as leader of the NDP from outgoing leader Alexa McDonough. He grabbed a seat in Parliament a year later, in the 2004 election.
In that first federal election campaign in 2004, Layton insisted to reporters without any irony that his aim was to increase the party's standings from 13 seats to 150. The party earned 19 seats. But the NDP was able to win 15 per cent of the popular vote -- its best result in 16 years.
Layton's flamboyant leadership style seemed to re-energize the party following the staid leaderships of McDonough and Audrey McLaughlin before her. He was constantly in front of the microphone, moving easily between English and French, always ready with the quick sound bites that had made him famous in Toronto.
But Layton stumbled in that first federal campaign when he accused then-Liberal prime minister Paul Martin of being responsible for the deaths of homeless people because he had failed to provide funding for affordable housing.
He managed to smooth out his edgy persona during the 2006 election campaign and consistently scored well in leadership polls, with voters giving him high marks in the areas of principle, honesty.
Queen's University political scientist Jonathan Rose told CTV.ca during the 2006 campaign that voters seemed to respond to Layton because of his tireless campaigning and infectious energy.
"He has all the hallmarks of what we demand from traditional leaders: a clear persona, someone who has a high trust level, and someone who is able to articulate clearly what they believe," Rose said.
Layton added 10 more seats for his party in the 2006 election, and then again in 2008, when the party's seat count rose to 37.
Throughout the 2008 election campaign, Layton opened every speech with the eyebrow-raising declaration that he was running to be prime minister. Longtime friend Peter Tabuns said at the time that Layton was never anything if not an optimist.
"He is one of the most optimistic and hopeful people that I know, and I think that gives him a lot of strength to get through tough times," he told CP.
Those tough times were soon to come, when Layton was diagnosed in early 2010 with prostate cancer. Layton chose to push through it, taking to the hustings for the 2011 election campaign with the save fervour as ever. He even suggested the illness gave him further motivation.
"People that go through serious illness – you can either go one way or the other. You can either become despondent about it all. Or it kind of rejuvenates you, makes you focus on what's important," he said in an interview with Metro news.
The election began as a traditional two-horse race between the Conservatives and the Liberals, but at some point after the leaders' debate, Layton surged. Layton was suddenly no longer the third-place outsider; he was being embraced as the candidate of hope and change for those opposed to the Conservatives.
Election Day brought what became known as the "orange crush": 31 per cent of the popular vote for the NDP, 59 seats in Quebec, as well as 44 other seats across the country -- the party's best showing ever.
Former Progressive Conservative prime minister Brian Mulroney told CTV News afterwards that he believed Quebecers embraced Layton because they thought of him as one of their own.
"He's always referred to here as, 'Our boy, Jack, a good guy,'" Mulroney said.
Ahead of the 2011 campaign, many had said that with four elections already behind him, if the NDP didn't make big strides, this would likely be Layton's final federal election.
In fact, it was Layton's last campaign. But not for the reason that anyone would have ever predicted.
"I like my steaks how i like my women. Bloody and all over my face"
"Its like sex, but with a winner!"

When you're trying to lead a normal life and yet depression invades your every waking moment, the struggle of trying to pull off that charade can be more difficult than one could ever imagine.
Depression and the signs of suicide are unfortunately all too often items that go hand-in-hand.
The Negative Effects Of Stress
Stress is the "wear and tear" our bodies experience as we adjust to our continually changing environment; it has physical and emotional effects on us and can create positive or negative feelings. As a positive influence, stress can help compel us to action; it can result in a new awareness and an exciting new perspective. As a negative influence, it can result in feelings of distrust, rejection, anger, and depression, which in turn can lead to health problems such as headache...
Stress And Work Life Balance
This article should be helpful to all managers and professionals, but is aimed particularly at those whose work-life balance has been changed by the additional workload, and potential stress, of studying management development courses or professional qualifications, by distance learning or in the classroom, in order to develop their careers.
Child Victim to Survivor!
Today is International Suicide Survivors Day. As such, we'd like to illuminate one of the traumatic experiences which lead many to edge: childhood abuse.
A report of child abuse is made every ten seconds.
And these are primarily physical abuse, as most emotional abuse occurs unnoticed, even by the victim.

Exercise And Stress
Exercise may not be the most exciting word in your vocabulary, but it sure has a lot of benefits. Participating in daily exercise not only makes us healthier in general, it can diminish the effects of stress on our bodies as well. How many times have you heard someone proclaim, "The doctor says it's stress"? We occasionally laugh it off, concluding that's just what doctors say when they don't know the real answer or diagnosis. But the truth of the matter is that too much stress plays a role in many diseases.

The Bachelorette 2016 finale is still one week away, but an accidental spoiler may have just revealed who JoJo Fletcher will be selecting for her final rose.
The ABC reality series has been notoriously tight about information being leaked out by its contestants, with a reportedly iron-clad agreement that participants not talk about how the show ended. Producers even go to great lengths to keep it from the public, keeping the final couple apart and away from the public eye for weeks until the big reveal.
It doesn't always work. In fact, it doesn't ever work, given that the final pick ends up being leaked out to the internet usually before the show even premieres thanks to some well-connected insiders. But the word almost never comes directly from the Bachelorette contestants or their families — until this year.
[WARNING: Bachelorette 2016 spoilers ahead.]
That may have just happened with the Bachelorette 2016 finale, with a spoiler appearing to come directly from a contestant's family. It seemed to slip out in an interview that the brother of contestant Jordan Rodgers gave to Womanista about his connection with JoJo Fletcher.
In the interview, Luke Rodgers appeared to hint that Jordan and Fletcher are looking forward to a future together.
"Let's hope that non-disclosure agreement penalty isn't too harsh."
That Bachelorette finale spoiler would seem to match up with the other information that's already been floating around the internet for the past few weeks. Blogger Reality Steve, the aforementioned insider who has consistently been feeding information about the show's winners to the public, predicted even before this season debuted that JoJo would be picking Jordan.
Before Luke Rodgers appeared to spill the beans on the Bachelorette finale, there was still some lingering doubt about whether Reality Steve was correct. Though his sources within ABC are almost always correct, he does not have a perfect record and has been wrong about the final pick at least once.
With Luke's interview slip-up, it's looking more and more certain that Jordan Rodgers and JoJo Fletcher will end up together at the Bachelorette finale.
It may not get much further than that, however. Reality Steve noted that Jordan is interested more in the fame that a Bachelorette win will bring him than actually getting married to JoJo.
"… But just after hearing all this stuff about Jordan, I hope JoJo has developed some thick skin because she's gonna have to put up with a s*** ton of tabloid coverage blasting this guy in the next few months. I'm sure she'll stand by him and choose to believe the stories aren't true, but really? You think every single one of these girls is just gonna be making stuff up about the guy? Horrible way to start a relationship. Like I said, be careful JoJo. You're in for one bumpy ride."
Fans who want to know if the Bachelorette 2016 spoilers predicting a win for Jordan Rodgers are true will have just a little bit longer to wait. The show's final episode is set to air on August 1.

No, I'm not kidding. We all know that everything is bigger in Texas, and that in the middle of Texas is X er, oil. As a matter of face, Our Good buddy, Walt (when he bothers to show up) is something of an oil man himself these days (When good bloggers go bad and pillage our mother the Earth). As a matter of fact, there is a saying (that I just made up) that says, scratch a Texan and you'll find an oilman.
Where am I going with all of this? Well, not to Texas, where they are (apparently) trading in their HummVees for electric cars.
You Know Gas Prices Are High When Texans Start Driving Golf Carts Low-Speed Electric Vehicles Catch On;
By ANA CAMPOY
July 31, 2008
HOUSTON — In the garage where chiropractor Rick Peters once parked his Dodge pickup, two tiny electric cars now sit back-to-back next to his wife's small SUV.
For trips to work, to run errands or visit friends, Dr. Peters, 43 years old, and his wife, Kris, hop into the munchkin-size cars while their old gas guzzlers gather dust. Admittedly, it's cramped inside the miniautos, which move along city streets at just 25 miles per hour. But the Peterses are converts to their low-speed vehicles.

See what I mean? What hope is there for the rest of us now?

Headed to Disney? While you've managed all the other details of your trip, don't forget your Disney nails. Yes, along with T-shirts, souvenirs and everything else, Disney nails is a thing. But check this out! We have you covered with the best DIY tips, tools, designs and even how to find a pro salon to create the perfect Disney princess nail art.
The perfect Disney nails are going to capture the excitement of the trip and your passions for Disney. You can choose simple by adding pixie dust (i.e. glitter nail polish) or going extreme with 3D acrylic art.
DIY Tip Step 1: Decide on a design.
Choosing your design might be one of your biggest challenges once you decide to do Disney nail art. Are you channeling Mickey Mouse or The Little Mermaid? Is your design going to be Disneybounding or an actual painting?
Read More: Everything You Need to Know about Planning the Perfect Disney World Vacation
The possibilities for what Disney characters you use as inspiration for your nail art designs are endless. You can choose to tie it into a special event like a first visit to Toy Story Land in Walt Disney World. Or maybe even just a holiday like Easter or Valentine's Day. Here are a few of my favorites from Instagram for your inspiration.

Obsessed with all the Disney nails I had in the same week ? . . . . #disneynails #toystory #acrylics #acrylicnails #acrylicfill #nails #nailart #handpainted #freehand #gelnails #opi #cndshellac #gelish #missioncontrol #naillove #naillady #nailboss #nailsoftheday #nailsofinstagram #slc #slcnailtech #slcnails #saltlakecitynails #utahnails #utahnailtech #unitednailcommunity #uncnailtech #kingsroadsalon
Don't forget Star Wars and Marvel Universe are now part of the Disney family too.

?? Manicure Monday! ?? OMG aren't these nails just the cutest?! @sierrasnails_ I am in LOVE with these adorable nails with ALL my favorite Mickey shaped foods and of course my Dole Whip and Churros! ? ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #JustADisneyMom #GetAwayToMagic #ManicureMonday #SierrasNails #DisneyStyle #DisneyNails #MickeyMouse #Mickey #Disney
This nail artist took full advantage of the Marvel Universe & Star Wars for the inspiration.
Step 2: Get the right tools.
If you really want a magical manicure, then you're going to need to invest in a basic set of nail design art tools. I picked up this set below on Amazon for less than $10. It's going to last me many trips to Disney, infinity and beyond. This kit includes most of the art brushes you'll find in a salon, dotting tools, rhinestones and striping tape.
The nail polish you use doesn't have to be super expensive. However, the topcoat of nail polish should be a strong one because you'll want to keep your decorations on as long as possible.

Step 3: Practice, Practice, Practice.
There are tons of YouTube tutorials on how to do Disney nails. Watch them and take notes of what you like/don't like about each.
If you're all about Mickey and Minnie Mouse, create hidden Mickeys. Choose a base color and highlight colors to create these fun mouse ears. These mouse ears are my favorite to create because of how easy they are. First, complete a base coat in red. I wanted to try a Mickey face on one nail so I painted it white as a highlight.
To make the Mickey faces, I used the large end of a dropper to add dots to the first nail. I then used a smaller end of the dropper to go back in with the small dots at the corners of each large dot. In just a few minutes, I had the perfect Mickey heads. Finishing off the inspiration with the dots from Minnie's dress and a Mickey head on the last finger, I think this Mickey and Minnie nail art design is a perfect fit.
These Instagrammers were just as excited to feature Minnie too! Use pink and white as the base colors and go crazy with polka dots, Minnie heads, bows, rhinestones and everything else Minnie-inspired.

How to Create Disney Princess Nails
It can be hard to choose which princess you're going to be inspired by, so how about choosing all of them? I completed this design on a little girl and we used 10 different princess. To turn them into magical nails, I used the stripping tape and rhinestones from the nail kit above.

For one hand, she chose Cinderella's bow, Belle's rose, Jasmine's tiara, Tiana's necklace, and Moana's flowers. I created Merida, Rapunzel, Ariel, Mulan and finished with a Minnie bow. It took just over an hour to do but was so much fun to come up with inspiration that I'd gladly do it again.
Going to the Nail Salon for Your Disney Nails
DIYing your nails might too much. In that case, you have two options. First, you can go the semi-DIY route and buy nail decals or press-on nails. I picked up these and believe that they'd all work for Disney nails. Doesn't that pattern look just like mermaid scales?
Going to the nail salon is always going to be an option as well. Finding a nail pro who can complete a true art look isn't difficult but requires finding a nail technician with experience in freehand design.
Start by asking friends/family for referrals. If that doesn't find an experienced nail artist, consider using search terms like "freehand nail art" and your city. You can always try searching on Instagram with the search terms "#Disneynails" and "#freehandnailart". These searches are going to bring up a variety of nail artists. Even if they've never completed a Disney nail, an experienced nail artists will be able to create amazing Disney nail art.
However you choose to complete your Disney nails, we want to see them! Tag us over on Instagram so we can get inspired for our next trip.

Supercomputer predicts Liverpool will finish Premier League season on incredible 112 points
Liverpool are running away with the Premier League this year.
Jurgen Klopp's side are a massive 22 points ahead of second-place Manchester City and need just six more wins to secure the title.
But it's all to play for elsewhere. The race for Champions League qualification is heating up.
Chelsea currently occupy the final top-four spot but Sheffield United, Tottenham, Everton and Manchester United are all within touching distance.
At the other end of the table, West Ham, Watford and Norwich City are in the relegation zone, but Aston Villa, Bournemouth and Brighton are still scrapping for their lives.
- The 25 PL players with the most expensive cars
- XI of the most valuable free agents from next summer
- If all Premier League captains had real jobs
With so much still to decide, it's about time we take another look at the supercomputer which predicts the final Premier League table.
The latest update makes fantastic reading for Liverpool fans - record-breaking reading - in fact. Check it out below:
1. Liverpool - 112 points
2. Leicester - 84 points
3. Man City - 77 points
4. Chelsea - 69 points
5. Sheffield United - 61 points
6. Wolves - 58 points
7. Tottenham - 56 points
8. Man Utd - 55 points
9. Arsenal - 48 points
10. Everton - 48 points
11. Crystal Palace - 45 points
12. Newcastle - 45 points
13. Brighton - 44 points
14. Burnley - 43 points
15. Southampton - 40 points
16. West Ham - 37 points
17. Bournemouth - 34 points
18. Aston Villa - 31 points
19. Watford - 30 points
20. Norwich - 27 points
That's right, the supercomputer has predicted Liverpool will finish on a ridiculous 112 points.
To do that, the Reds would need to win all their remaining games, meaning they'll have dropped just two points over the course of the entire campaign.
Quite remarkable, yes. But not impossible.
Moving down the table, the supercomputer predicts Leicester will actually finish second ahead of Man City, by quite a significant margin of seven points.
Chelsea are expected to comfortably hold on to that final Champions League qualification spot, while Sheffield United are predicted surprise Europa League qualification.
The less said about Spurs, Man United and Arsenal, the better. Those three big teams finish in seventh, eighth and ninth respectively.
At the other end of the table, Norwich, Watford and Aston Villa are tipped for a return to the Championship.
With one-third of the Premier League season still to play, there's plenty of time for everything to change.
But given how successful supercomputer predictions have been in the past, it might be time for Liverpool fans to start preparing to call themselves the new Invincibles.News Now - Sport News

That's done easiest using adb (see the ADB tag-wiki for details on what ADB is and how to get/install it on your machine). As you don't state the OS you're using on your desktop, I write how it could be done on Linux (which I work with); should be easily adaptable to other platforms:
- put all your downloaded
.apkfiles into a single folder
- connect your Android device, and make sure it's recognized (
adb devicesshould list a connected device)
- open a terminal/command prompt, and change to the directory where your
.apkfiles reside
- run
for file in *.apk; do adb install $file; done
- watch all the apps getting installed, without requiring any further interaction :)
NOTE: If you have
.apk files which have "spaces" in their names such as 'Xposed Framework', 'Adobe Flash Player' etc. then you will have to rename them, as ADB cannot handle that. Either remove the spaces altogether, or replace them e.g. by underscores. Linux provides a Perl script for that (
/usr/bin/rename) which you can use:
rename 's/ /_/g' *.apk
It replaces all
space character with
_, which makes names like this
Adobe_Flash_Player which are recognizable by adb.
Step 1. Open command prompt (CMD) and change directory to your "c:\apps"
Example: Code:
cd apps
Now you should see your path set as "C:\apps" in CMD.
Step 2. Create directory print.
In CMD "C:\apps" run: Code:
dir /s /b > print.txt
This will print all directory files and extensions but nothing else, like size and attributes into your "C:\apps" folder. Now you will see a "print.txt" file in your "c:\apps" folder. If you open it, you will see a list of all your APKs.
Step 3. Assuming you are using Notepad to view your "print.txt" file, press "CTRL+H". This will open the Find and Replace dialog box.
In Find type Code:
In replace type
adb install -r c:\
Hit enter and it will modify all the APKs with the adb install command. Save and close notepad.
Step 4. Now you need to rename that .txt extension in your "c:\apps\print.txt" to "print.bat". You need to have extension shown in windows. Google that if you dont know how to do that.
Once saved as a .bat file, simply execute and it will run through the sequence to install all your APK files without any prompts on your phone. Voila, and enjoy.
adb install -r c:\apps\com.twitter.android-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.ups.mobile.android-2.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.vavni.android.battleship-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.viclabs.myRemote-2.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.waterflea.wifiscan-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.wyse.pocketcloud-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.xrath.jmsn-2.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.xtralogic.android.rdpclient-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.xtremelabs.android.speedtest-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.yahoo.mobile.client.android.im-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.yahoo.mobile.client.android.mail-2.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\com.yahoo.mobile.client.android.search-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\hongbo.bluescreen-1.apk
adb install -r c:\apps\info.marlan.sim-1.apk

If you have apks in different folders (like if you used
adb pull) then you can use my script below:
for /r %f in (*.apk) do adb install -r "%f"
Just run it in the folder above all your APK Files and it will recurse and install all of them.
I tried this and I am getting this C:\Users\AndroidApps>adb install "C:\Users\username\Downloads\AosApp\AppName.apk" 'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. – Sujay U N Mar 13 '17 at 10:25
@SujayUN Okay, replace adb with the direct path to your adb.exe in quotes and that should work. – Pyroglyph Mar 14 '17 at 10:20
you can install apk directly from your computer to Android mobile through ADB. First download adb and install it.you can download it from here if you did not have it already.
then enable developer mode in your mobile. you can find it your settings of your mobile.
and then run this command.
adb install "path to your apk file"
for example
C:\Users\Owner>adb install C:\Users\Owner\Downloads\android-agent.apk
here my adb located is owner folder and
For windows, open command line:
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\path_to_your_platform-tools\
for %e in (*.apk) do adb install %e
So you have a problem that you have tons of apps to install and you didn't do a backup like Titanium Backup or other backup-restore app. But one-by-one installing and confirming and waiting would take forever, not to mind it's so tedious!
I tried to find an app that could do it to save me the effort, but after trying them all, none of them worked. So I was doing it one-by one and it was taking so long that I decided to just do it with ADB.
No worries, I am here to save you, if you are using Windows. You can solve this using ADB. You might not know how to use ADB so I will write the full instructions here. Don't worry, it's easy.
How to do it in Windows:
On your phone,
- Be sure your phone's drivers are installed. For example, Samsung drivers or LG drivers form the manufacturer's website.
- Go into
Settings > Developer Options(Click on
Settings > About Phone > Software > Build Number7 times to activate Developer mode)
- Turn on
USB Debugging
- Turn OFF
Verify apps over USB
- Connect your phone via a USB cable to your computer.
- On your phone select the popup that says allow USB Debugging. If you don't see it or missed it, just turn off and back on USB Debugging and it should pop up again if your phone is connected.
Now you are ready for the next step.
On your Windows computer:
- Download Android SDK Platform Tools
- Extract the
platform-toolsfolder into your computer. I recommend the root of your
C:drive, so that it is located at
- Get all your APK files you want to batch install and put them into a folder and put it into your platform-tools folder. For example, you might make a folder named "apks" located at
- Open a CMD (Command Prompt) window. (Ideally, right-click and run as administrator just to be sure. It may not be necessary.)
Now, your phone is connected and you have ADB installed on your computer, so you are ready to enter the following into your command line.
First, test to see if your device is connected.
cd C:\platform-tools\
adb devices
If your phone is properly connected, you will see something like this:
* daemon not running: starting now at tcp:5037
* daemon started successfully
List of devices attached
Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1 device
Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1 is the device ID of your phone.
If you saw that, you are successful. Proceed to do the install commend:
for %e in (apks\*.apk) do adb install %e
If it worked, success! Enjoy watching everything get installed quick. It's probably faster to do this than to manually install 300+ apks on your phone.
If you get the error
more than one installed and you saw
emulator-5556 under your device, try this (or you can skip to the end and see the way to get around this problem):
- reboot phone
adb kill serverin the CMD window
- When phone finished rebooting, type:
adb devices
- If it worked and only your phone shows, then great!
- Type again
adb kill serverin the CMD window (don't check adb devices again)
- If you still see emulator then try these instructions.
Then run the final command and watch everything get installed.
- If you get error "FAILED ALREADY EXISTS" it is because the app already exists on your phone and it won't reinstall it, it will only install apps which are not installed yet.
- If you get your phone crash and disconnect, it's because the screen timed out while it was installing. You could swipe the screen on the desktop occasionally and it should prevent it from sleeping and blocking your install making you start over.
All apps might not install because your computer is too fast for the command prompt and some might say "more than one device/emulator", while others install normally. In this case, I have a solution.
- Type
adb devices. Take note of your device ID like the
Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1in the output above.
- Specify your device ID after
See an example command below:
for %e in (apks\*.apk) do adb -s Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1 install %e
Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1Z1 is the device ID of your phone.
This is going to make sure that ADB ignores any other devices and it will prevent the "multiple devices" error.
Hope it helps!
In addition to
adb install, you can directly use
package manager from
adb shell to install apps. Place
.apk files in
/data/local/tmp and make sure files are readable, SELinux context must be
u:object_r:shell_data_file:s0. Now:
~$ cd /data/local/tmp
~$ ls *.apk | xargs -I {} pm install '{}'
Another simple root solution - though not from computer - is to use some file explorer e.g. MiXplorer to batch install apps. Select all
.apk files and tap on
Install from menu.
