Newcastle University is committed to raising awareness of Meningitis and Septicaemia and to keep you informed on what steps you can take to protect yourselves against this.
Meningitis is the inflammation of the membranes that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord and can be caused by different organisms, including bacteria and viruses. Some bacteria that cause meningitis can also cause Septicaemia (blood poisoning).
University students can be more vulnerable to contracting Meningitis as you come together from all over the world - to live and study in one place, as such your bodies can be exposed to bacteria and viruses which it may not have been before.
The early symptoms of meningitis are similar to many other common things, such as the flu, or maybe excessive alcohol consumption and it is easy to mistake meningitis for something else and therefore it is important to be aware of the symptoms so you can look out for yourself and each other.
It is vital that you prioritize protecting yourself from meningitis by receiving the MenACWY vaccine through your Newcastle local Doctor. This vaccine is FREE to any student who is under 25 and who is attending university for the first time. Any student who falls outside this category can still get this vaccination at a small charge. If you are in financial hardship and need help with the costs of this vaccination, please contact Student Financial Support.
For more information on Meningitis, please visit https://www.meningitisnow.org/how-we-help/campaigns/uni/supporting-students/

Question by
Mary57 (75)
I have a gold pieces that is marked 800.
Answer by
redmamaof5 (188)
A gold piece marked 800, is actually silver with a gold finish. This is a very rare and hard to come by piece of jewelry!
Answer by
ferfer72 (2623)
It means that the gold is 80% gold. When you buy gold, it usually isn't made up of 100% gold. 100% gold is 24 karat. 80% would be four-fifths of 24, which is 19. 2. You'll find that a lot of gold bought in Europe is marked with a 750, which is 18 karats.
Answer by
Vanasatchy (816)
When 800 is marked on a gold piece it means that it is 19. 2k and has 80% of gold in it. The karat differs from country to country and value also differs.
Answer by
KimberlyB (61)
Gold pieces have usually a marking of either the carats or how many parts pure gold per thousand parts. This also allows you to know that the gold piece is real gold,and not a fake.
Answer by
mani (813)
The marking of 800 means it contains 80% gold. It may be French 19k gold. In European gold jewelry it is marked as 18 k then it is meant that gold content in it may be 18 out of 24 parts gold

Our Past Picks
These are the weekly picks provided by the Jupiter Broadcasting podcast, the Linux Action Show.
This site includes a separate picks lists for the "Runs Linux", Desktop Apps, Spotlight Picks, Android Picks, and Distro Picks.
Steam Machine Launch Date
November 10, 2015: May it forever be known as "Steam Day"—the day Valve will officially unleash its suite of Steam Machines, Steam Link, SteamOS, and the Steam Controller. Sure, it's almost exactly a year later than anticipated, but…well, if you want one, this is when you can get one. Officially.
"Unofficially," you can get a Steam Machine and Steam Controller as early as October 16, provided you're in the market for Alienware's model. Preordering through GameStop ensures you'll receive Alienware's Steam Machine (which Valve previously referred to as "a console that encapsulates the full potential of what a Steam Machine should be") almost a month early.
HP Enterprise will be all-in
What's the latest enterprise IT company to proclaim its love of open source? HP, that's who – or, more specifically, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, one of two companies that will emerge once HP splits this November.
Speaking at the HP Discover conference in Las Vegas this week, CTO Martin Fink said open source will be central to how HP's enterprise incarnation conducts its business.
"We have taken this very, very seriously and we are all-in on the notion of open source," Fink said, adding that even game-changing big bets like the Machine will be backed by open source software.
"I want to stress something here: It is not called HP Grommet. It is called Grommet," Fink said. "It is HP's contribution to the IT industry to bring consumer-grade capabilities with an enterprise user experience framework so that all of you can take advantage of it."

Chip to be $20 not $9

On my question how then Next Thing Co. sell this computer for $9 Allwinner response is:
"CHIP 9$ computer launched a big advertising campaign to promote their new development board, their actual cost is higher than 9$. After the Kickstarter their computer will sell for 39$."
So, sorry guys to break your dreams for 1Ghz SOCs costing $1, maybe in future this would be possible, but not now.

Dip your toe in the stock market for 5% returns: How to invest in funds for dividends... it really isn't as tricky as you think
- Investing in shares through funds can deliver an income return
- By taking a little more risk you could give your income a significant boost
- You don't need to be an expert because professionals can pick the shares
You've sniffed out the best savings rate for your cash. Almost every penny is sheltered from the taxman's grasp. But after years of low rates, you're still struggling to plug the gaps in your income.
It's the same story for millions of beleaguered savers.
So where can they turn? For many, the answer will be taking a little more risk by investing in shares.
Dipping a toe in the stock market may sound scary and complicated, but it really doesn't have to be.
Take the plunge: Investing in shares may sound complicated but by taking a little more risk you could give your income a significant boost
By investing in shares, you're simply backing companies you think will do well — and sharing in their success.
And you don't need to be an expert, either, because there are professionals to pick the shares for you.
All you have to worry about is finding a fund manager who'll maximise your returns.
Before you start, you need to be certain you could stomach losing some of your cash.
Financial advisers typically say you should aim to leave your investments for a minimum of five years (or, ideally, nearer ten) to ride out the bumps in the markets. If you can't commit to that, investing is not for you.
The benefit of investing in a fund, rather than individual shares, is that your money is pooled and spread across potentially 50 or more firms (although some funds are more focussed than this). Then if one company crashes, you won't lose nearly as much.
Fund jargon explained
Open-ended funds are the most widely invested in product.
Most of these will come with two different classes of fund Inc and Acc.
These stand for income - the class which pays out dividends to investors - and accumulation - the class which reinvests those dividends in the fund.
If you want to take dividend payouts choose the income version, if you want to reinvest them choose the accumulation version.
However, not all funds are right for income-seekers.
Some aim only to make money grow quickly, rather than paying out regular sums. These are known as growth funds.
Others invest in big companies that pay hefty dividends (the profits firms choose to pay out to shareholders).
These so-called equity income funds are ideal for savers starved of interest, as they typically pay out twice a year.
But they are not just useful for those looking to draw an income, they can also help build wealth. Reinvesting those dividends over the years means that returns compound up, and this can deliver a big boost to investment performance.
Some funds will tell you the returns they aim to deliver. For example, star income fund manager Neil Woodford will next launch a fund that in the first year aims to produce an income of 5p for every £1 invested at that launch.
That's the same as a 5 per cent income — or £500 on £10,000.
Overall, Mr Woodford aims to deliver an income of a fifth more than the yield of the FTSE All Share — a list of around 600 companies on the London Stock Exchange.
At current rates, that would mean an income of 4.2 per cent a year, but this could easily change.
Mr Woodford has yet to reveal which shares he'll buy for the Income Focus fund, except to say many will be UK-listed firms. The first quarterly dividend payment will be made in August 2017.
Elsewhere, wealth manager Hargreaves Lansdown has just launched its own fund aiming to pay 3.9 per cent.
The HL Select UK Income Shares fund invests in 30 companies including Unilever, the company behind Marmite and Dove soap, fashion firm Burberry and Guinness-maker Diageo.
The fund also aims for growth, and so will help your pot grow.
Other popular funds don't set the income they aim to pay.
John Monaghan, at investment research firm Square Mile, tips the Henderson Global Equity Income fund, which is currently paying out around 3.3 per cent a year.
More than £20 of every £100 in the fund is invested in computer giants such as American firms Microsoft and Cisco and pharmaceutical firms such as Roche, the largest maker of cancer drugs in Switzerland.
The fund has handed out £2,330 in income on a £10,000 investment over five years.
Mr Monaghan also recommends the Schroder Income Maximiser fund, which targets a hefty annual yield of 7 per cent.
It invests in out of favour companies, which can be more risky. He says this is not a fund for the faint-hearted.
More than £3 in every £10 is invested in UK financial companies, with HSBC the largest holding. It has paid £4,053 on a £10,000 investment over five years.
Mark Dampier, of Hargreaves Lansdown, recommends the J O Hambro Equity Income fund, which yields around 4.6 per cent and has a strong record of increasing payouts each year.
As well as oil, financial and mining firms, it invests in smaller companies such as Hollywood Bowl, the popular tenpin bowling operator. Over five years the fund has paid out £3,190 in income on £10,000.
New deal: For example, star income fund manager Neil Woodford will next launch a fund that in the first year aims to produce an income of 5p for every £1 invested
You could also consider investment trusts. These are similar to investment funds, in that they have a manager picking what they see as the best shares, but are structured as companies that are listed on the stock exchange.
You buy into investment trusts by purchasing their shares. However, the investment trust's share price could be lower or higher than the sum of the parts it owns, known as a discount or premium to net asset value. This relationship can depend on whether a trust's investing style, management or the things it invests in are in or out of favour.
How to get advice
If you're not confident about choosing the investments on your own, get independent advice.
You can find a local adviser through unbiased.co.uk's service or call 0800 023 6868.
One useful feature of investment trusts is that they can deliver a steady income, even in times of crisis, by squirrelling away up to 15 per cent of their dividends each year. That means they can top up income in bad years.
It's allowed some trusts, such as City of London Investment Trust, to pay increasing dividends for 50 consecutive years. These trusts with long histories of raising payouts are known as dividend heroes, which you can see a list of here.
Mr Dampier tips Standard Life Equity Income Trust, which yields around 4 per cent. Its largest holding is Newcastle-based Sage, one of the world's largest payroll software companies. The fund has paid out £2,567 on a £10,000 investment over five years.
If at any point you don't need the income from investment trusts, you can reinvest the payouts. This means you buy more shares with your dividends, which in turn means your could receive more dividends in future.
What about a tracker fund?
In an active fund, a manager picks shares, bonds or other assets that they think will beat the market.
A passive or tracker fund will instead seek to mimic a set index - and not try to beat the market.
The active fund manager is aiming to use their skill and expertise to beat a benchmark, or deliver a greater reward for less risk.
They research investments and make decisions on what to buy or sell, and when to do it.
In contrast, passive funds will buy every member of a certain index – for example, a stock market index such as the FTSE All-Share – with the aim of replicating its performance.
There is no human element trying to find the best investments to buy or sell.
This means that a passive fund won't beat the market, but neither will it make mistakes and buy the wrong things, leading it to substantially underperform.
The return should be the same as that index, minus fees. These fees tend to be small, as index investing is a low-cost endeavour and traditionally doesn't come with all the management, research and marketing expenses that active funds often do – nevermind the high fund manager salaries.
A FTSE All-Share tracker fund, which invests in the broad UK stockmarket, should deliver similar income to that index, which was 3.48 per cent at the end of February.
The HSBC FTSE All-Share index fund has ongoing charges of just 0.07 per cent and pays 3.45% income.
The BlackRock UK Equity Tracker has ongoing charges of 0.06 per cent and pays 3.42% income.

Even the Trump Administration realizes that a nation of HAVES VS. HAVE NOTS is UNAMERICAN and betrays the promise of freedom and liberty championed by the Constitution. More to the point, throughout world history po'folk have a tendency of taking out their frustrations on the ruling class and dismantling the unfair and rigged systems that only benefit the status quo. To that end, one of the most informative debates of the 2020 election season will bring arguments about the Trump Economic Boom Vs. Rising Income Inequality. It's one of the very few discussions worth having given that younger voters are seeing a legit choice betwixt socialism vs. capitalism.
Remember that 70% of millennials say they'd vote for a socialist because they don't get a lot of news about formerly working-class people forced to eat pets in Venezuela and simply think the economic debate won't have any impact on the prices of avocado toast. It might.
And all of this brings us to the problem of Clark Hunt.
As far as NFL owners goes, he's pretty good. He has clearly made smart decisions and seems to genuinely care about his team and Kansas City.
However . . . He was born into his good luck and inherited the team and his vast fortune. Like it or not, Clark Hunt isn't a model for unabashed, work-to-eat capitalism that plays well on social media forums.
In a tough election year as American class-stratification grows more distinct and obvious, there's no denying the privilege enjoyed by Clark Hunt. The backstory of an NFL owner might not mean much to football fans more concerned with tailgating and touchdowns but when informed denizens of the discourse REALLY talk about the impact of a Super Bowl win on Kansas City, the question of "equity" is bound to arise. Accordingly, the so-called economic benefit MIGHT help local biz but certainly boosts the bottom line of this fortunate son.
Again, Clark Hunt is a pretty decent owner but the financial reality is that the Kansas City Chiefs are propped up by taxpayer cash that continues to support one of the greatest inheritances in American history and broke-ass locals should probably remember as much when cheering for "the home team" next Sunday.

Mata is shit on either wing and has lost his legs, Pereira is shit period, Lindgard is a #10(and shit), Gomes is a #10 and just a kid and Chong is a kid(and shit). None of these are CF's either. Rashford has been incredibly good lately playing from the LW and is not suited as a CF, neither is James.We actually dont. We have Martial, Rashford, James, Greenwood Mata, Pereira, Lingard and you could add Gomes and Chong as well since they are part of the squad as well. All of who has occupied one of the three attacking positions this year.
Add to this (hopefully) a Sancho in the summer and I still dont see how adding another prospect will add up in minutes played.
We are stacked with young talent upfront already. Money needs to be put in someone who is ready like Sancho and the rest in midfield, midfield and midfield.
Not getting Haaland because we might get Sancho is daft. Why not both?

'Knights of the South Bronx'An inspirational life changing movie
By Tranquilpen, 7th Feb 2012 | Follow this author

Posted in WikinutReviewsFilm & TVFamily
In the early hours of this morning I came across a truely magnificent inspirational TV movie of 2005 vintage the value and impact of which was almost as phenomenal as being being struck by lightning....a very rare occurrence, finding such a powerful life lesson on a low-budget TV movie and at 2am. in the morning.
- Meet The Knights
- Endearing Quotes From The Movie
- Even Mundane Lives Need Strategy
- Here Are The Five Lessons I Have Learned:
Meet The Knights
So, when I stumbled across this rare gem which is called Knights of the South Bronx, I was pondering on the most apt words to describe it to you, my reader, whom I have come to value and appreciace imencely.
If I were to call it a work of art would be demeaning it somehow with a cliche. I knew that I just had to have a copy so I phoned local rental shops and came up empty handed in my hunt for the movie: "Knights of the South Bronx."..until now that is.
I am trying to foster the love among the poor kids in our community, for the game of chess and the countless,invaluable life skills it teaches everyone who ever dared to pursue it. All of the schools have started up the first term in January but a lack of books and teachers, are seeing many kids hanging around idle and feeling dejected and unworthy. So very much like the kids from the movie. Soon the ever present negative forces like drugs, alcohol and teen violence which feeds on people with low self esteem, starts to kick in.
My own children are grown up and following different career paths in Ireland and England so this concern of mine is not for them in this regard, but for the droves of teens hanging around the malls in our neighborhood. The few that I know and have spoken to, as well as the daily headline news on TV which confirms government's inability to provide the means with which to deal with a key human right ensconced in our constitution, namely: "The right to education."
Over the years I have seen the rules of the chess game successfully applied to real life situations. After much searching online, I wasn't able to find a single movie trailer to share with you. However, I did find the movie trailer online for free so you can now watch it for yourself. In7Eh6LicTLUw[/yt] this trailer you'll also find some compelling quotes from the movie as well as some useful notes about the real inspiration for the film, Mr. David MacEnulty upon whose work as a teacher with a vision, this film is based
Endearing Quotes From The Movie
I hope you enjoy watching this movie as much as I did. And if you do, please share this link with anyone you think would "get it", you know, the "Aha moment" out of it, just the way you did. To watch 'Knights of the South Bronx'...full movie feature for FREE
Just click the link below and watch the Online 90-min video of 'Knights of the South Bronx' for free.

Movie Quote Characters:
Richard Mason: Businessman turned teacher (Ted Danson)
Renee: Pupil 1
Kenya: Pupil 2
Jimmy: Pupil 3
Dawson: Pre-schooler
Arnie: (Mason's disabled chessplayer friend in a wheelchair)
Jimmy's Dad: (In prison, serving a sentence, he hasn't seen
Jimmy in years.)
Quotes from: 'Knights of the South Bronx'
Mason: "Everything starts with how you think. I mean, playing chess is like taking your brain to the gym. When you get that brain muscle all pumped up, nobody and nothing can defeat you."
Renee: "Yeah, sure."
Mason: "If you can win a game of chess, nobody can call you stupid."
Renee: "For real?"
Richard Mason: "Yeah, for real."
Renee: "I'm in."
Kenya: "What are these little guys with the round heads? They look like they got candles on them."
Mason: "These are pawns. You send these out to do the dirty work. Some people think that they're dispensable, that they'll do what they're told, y'know, but if they get creamed, nobody cares if you lose them or not, but actually, the pawn is the bravest piece on the board. It may look small and weak, but the truth is, the pawn fears nothing."
Arnie: "Any chess player worth his salt will tell you a loss is nothing more than an opportunity. An opportunity to get better, and learn something. What were your mistakes? What did your opponent see that you missed? How did they exploit your weaknesses? If you answer those questions for yourself, I guarantee you, next time you'll be a stronger player."
Kenya: "Well, I already know why I lost."
Mason: "Why's that?"
Kenya: "It was that gold chain with the stones on it. I'm thinking, why can't I have that sparkly necklace. It must have cost 300 dollars. And next thing I knew, her and her bling jumped me."
Mason: "So you let yourself get distracted. You let something unrelated pull you out of your game."
Kenya: "I guess."
Mason: "You let the environment of the room take over the environment of your mind. Now we've talked about this."
Arnie: "Rich, can I say something? Look, guys, I know what it's like to feel different. But this game, it's not about the colour of your skin, it's not about whether or not you can walk, and it's certainly not about how much money you've got in your pocket. It's about what you've got up here and in here and that's it."
Arnie: "Hey little man, you won a trophy. What kind of game did you bring?"
Dawson: "Ninja, I brought my ninjas."
Mason: "What do you mean, Dawson?"
Dawson: "Ninjas. All of my pieces got Ninja names. All got Ninja faces. When I'm stuck in a move I see my Ninjas come to life."
Jimmy: "So you just imagined?"
Dawson: "Oh, it's real. It's always real. I call them and they come. And let them tell me what to do...I am a Ninja Warrior! When I play chess that's who I am."
Mason: "Okay guys, we've got a mission. We've got a tournament in three weeks...And guys, you're gonna have to each one of you find your Ninja. Your secret warrior, you,'know, the one that lives inside your heart. You guys have to look inside you, at that thing that scares you. Because inside what scares you, is what saves you, every time. Find it, name it, teach it how to play chess. Alright, okay, let's get to work."
Jimmy's Dad: "When you get angry, people play you out of position. That's the same thing that happened to me. Instead of checkin' my feelings, and looking at all my

Even Mundane Lives Need Strategy
Chess is actually a mirror of life. It is strewn with opportunities and struggles everywhere and it has the abillity to teach us a whole lot about life. Even a mundane kind of life needs strategy. The rules of life that can mate you or allow you to squeeze out of a very tight spot; and even when you are completely destitute, life can give you a precious opportunity that seems way too good to be true and actually allows you to win.
The perfect example of being penniless and becoming one of the largest companies in the word is Google. Mere days from having to either grow or quit, they get their first big break with a check from someone that just spoke to them for a few minutes and trusted them with $100,000, they did not even have a company formed at that time,and couldn't even cash the check.
They were tiny when Yahoo suddenly decided to invest $100,000 in them that allowed them to grow amazingly and even left Yahoo way behind. At every twist and turn they were minutes from being mated yet life gave them the power to out maneuver and conquer their opponent. Even while frequently making huge mistakes along the way and fighting against overwhelming odds they endured and went on to become the gigantic number one company on the planet!
A chess game, as I have explained is strewn with imperfections. In fact what it is, is a whole series of mistakes upon mistakes on both sides. It allows us to extract many life lessons from it. I have selected these five points that chess has taught me. The game develops closely to that of Google's pattern and of course very much like the course of our own personal lives. life is a series of decision and many of our decisions lead to grave mistakes and also ingenious corrections!
Here Are The Five Lessons I Have Learned:
1. Most of the time things look worse than they are.
If I believe in intimidation in the game, I would have been intimidated as a human being. Often hope can mislead you and doom you but many times it can be your savior. The dividing line is exeedingly thin but sometimes it may even lead to success. Often situations appear a lot worse than they really are and if you remain focussed and keep persivering, you may just find the opportunity you need to win!
2. Even if you make mistakes there is usually a way to recover.
Life has absolutes and chess teaches this too. When you reach a mate there is nothing you can do to prevent it from happenning and when there is a solid forced mating attack there is nothing you can do to avoid it and so, chess is proof that there are absolutes in life, granted, very few, but there are. However, short of these few absolute situations, there are usually ways to recover from even major mistakes.
Recovery often seems like luck rather than skilled maneuovering such as when your opponent makes a stunning amateurish mistake or when something you had not considered seems to happen by "accident". Whatever the recovery situation, it can happen with just one move, even if you did not notice that the ball rolling slowly towards that situation had already started rolling much earlier. Whether it is luck, or by divine design, many many mistakes can be recovered from in life. Quitting too early, can be as bad as not knowing when to give up but life gives you many chances and so does chess!
3. Do not be intimidated even when facing long odds, often the odds can be wrong.
This one is really a repeat of lesson number 1, but it cannot be emphasized enough. Never resign too soon, giving up too soon may make you lose more than just the game, especially if it teaches you the wrong thing or lowers your confidence. When in doubt, complicate your strategy which gives you time and makes it easier for your opponent to make a mistake. Face down long odds with unwavering confidence, and often you can cut them down to your size!
4. Remember even computers make mistakes and humans even more so.
Everyone and everything can make mistakes. Even Grandmasters make huge blunders and even an amateur player may beat a Grandmaster, only once in 10 million times but it has happened and it will happen again. People make mistakes, people are human,and to be human, is to err. Always trust in yourself and work to reduce the advantage your advisary has over you.
For example,sometimes people who did not even have money for food can live like kings through strategising against the onslaught of life's misadventures-I can surely attest to that! Similarly, in chess, do not ever give up too soon and you will win more often than you dreamed you could!
5. Respect It But Never Ever Fear The Game Of Life
All these rules, boil down to this one. In one particular game I recall, I was young and just starting out in the game of chess my opponent, a local junior champion was relentless never gave up his perhaps pre constrewd notion to mate. I wanted to, resign from the game many times but continued because as I continuede to match his moves a tiny chinc in my opponent's armour was starting to appear, it had off course been there all along but I was too frightened to break out of the box I mad placed myself into.
I made many mistakes and even if he was a stronger player I started betting on him making a mistake by complicating the game and then he made that silly little mistake which cost him the game. Life is not predictable and often seems worse than it really is because usually we look at it through the fog of our fears and misperceptions.
There are definitely times to give up, but never panic, don't fear and run away, but examine the situation carefully and if there is really no hope then do the right thing. However, if there is even the tiniest glimmer of hope, make things hot for your opponent and pray for a mistake-they will happen more often than the odds say!

Ansel Adams
For many of us, the history of art photography in America is synonymous with the names Ansel Adams, Alfred Steiglitz, and Eliot Porter. However, Ansel Adams helped to establish photography among the fine arts.
Adams was born in 1902 in San Francisco, lived through the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 as a child, and went on to be an esteemed photographer and land preservationist. The quintessential photographer of the American southwest, Ansel Adams' black and white photographs remain some of the most breathtaking images in the history of 20th Century landscape photography.
Adams' first portfolio of photographs was entitled Parmelian Prints of the High Sierras. This portfolio included one of the most important photographs of Adams' career called Monolith, the Face of Half Dome.
Fellow Artists
Adams worked alongside of Alfred Stieglitz, Paul Strand, and Georgia O'Keeffe in New Mexico. He became interested in topics relating to the protection of the wilderness including Yosemite national park and land preservation issues. He pictured World War II imagery and considered the landscape of the American southwest as a favorite subject.
In the 1970s, Adams' large format and iconic photographs were all the rage with collectors. His works were featured in a retrospective exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City in 1974. Ansel Adams died at age 82.

It lays the groundwork for some possible future romance between two of the characters in the sequels, but that's all. I mean, there comes a point in this book where the girls are learning some fine point of social manipulation, and you really can't tell if it's in service of catching a husband, or in service of lining someone up to stick a knife in them. The books in the series become more mature as the characters age, however. Its quirky style will draw you in! Gail Carriger's writing style is sort of a weird thing to explain. This book never quite asked me to take this stuff seriously, so I was able to roll along with it and just enjoy every joke. To see what your friends thought of this book, please sign up.

Lists with This Book. This book is really really good!
This school turns out to be a great place not only to learn etiquette and espionage, but a place of self discovery and emotional development. Especially with a name like that. So I got about a third through this book. I certainly learned a lot of etiquette just from reading this spectacular book.
Is that really efficient? Really, I did not expect espionqge to feel so young. Packed with Wodehousian humor! Our ratings are based on child development best practices. I mean, there comes a point in this book where the girls are learning some fine point of social manipulation, and you really can't tell if it's in service of catching a husband, or in service of lining someone up to stick a knife in them.
Gail Carriger is a really good writer but I was etiquette and espionage by gail carriger into the writing then the story or the characters. A cute, young adult book with a steampunk theme that takes place at a "finishing" school which isn't about etiquette at all.
Etiquette & Espionage
It is funny, frivolous and frothy. I needed to brace myself if that was the case None of that in this book. One of my favorites is when Sophronia inexplicably claims that werewolves enjoy the theater. Tea should be required for the reading of all Gail Carriger books, don't you think? It is also a place to learn what makes the people around her tick, which in turn leads Sophronia to learn more about her own inner workings and a bit of wisdom.
Honestly, I'm just so impressed with myself that I read and liked a steampunk book.
Etiquette & Espionage – Gail Carriger – Gail Carriger
Hardcoverpages. I'm not a big fan of vampires at all so that aspect was a little disappointing for me. This is the start of a great Ya Steampunk series etiquette and espionage by gail carriger intelligent quirky plot, brilliant characters with devious minds and enough spirit to get in and out of all sorts of trouble.
It will probably appeal etiqueette a female and teen audiance somewhat more that others as that seems to be the "target audience" but it's a fun book and I can recommend it as a light read. She has her own style, though I must admit that it is not my favorite for it is kind of simple and, espiobage my opinion, this would have been better with a 1st person POV. I picked this book up at my local Dollar Tree store.
Mar 14, Whitley Birks rated it it was amazing Shelves: Of course, being taught knife fighting by a werewolf is a bit more to the point, if indelicate. The author seemed to want to make her seem strong and intelligent but there was always something she said or did that made me see her otherwise.
Sophronia learns the finer points of deceit, espionage, and assassination while attending Mademoiselle Geraldine's Finishing Academy for Young Ladies of Quality. Sadly 14 year old Sophronia does not fit in. Recommended for a light summer read around the pool and, hail, you may want to read The Parasol Protectorate series first, starting with Soulless.

On __ptrace_detach(), called from do_exit()->exit_notify()-> forget_original_parent()->exit_ptrace(), the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE in thread->flags of the tracee is not cleared up. This results in the tracehook_report_syscall_* being called (though there's no longer a tracer listening to that) upon its further syscalls. Example scenario - attach "strace" to a running process and kill it (the strace) with SIGKILL. You'll see that the syscall trace hooks are still being called. The clearing of this flag should be moved from ptrace_detach() to __ptrace_detach().
