Elder (Sambucus nigra) is one of our most familiar trees and few plants have featured more in British folklore and traditional medicine.
The creamy-coloured sprays of highly scented flowers have been made into teas and infusions, used to flavour cooked fruit, jams, jellies, ices and form the basis of elderflower fritters. But elderflowers are most valued for the refreshing, summery cordial they make.
The abundance of elderflower cordial recipes out there reflects its long heritage of use and popularity, but this one is my favourite. It's fragrant and delicate and is super easy to make.

This fantastic, aromatic cordial has a stunning, summery flavour.
Serve with sparkling water for a refreshing drink or add to sparkling wine or champagne for a delicious cocktail.
Add a splash or two, undiluted, to fruit salads or anything with gooseberries or dilute one part cordial to two parts water for fragrant ice lollies. You could even drizzle it over lemon sorbet.
Make elderflower cream by adding a few tablespoons of elderflower cordial and a sprinkling of icing sugar when whipping cream. This livens up any recipe using cream – especially trifles, pavlovas and Eton mess.
There is often spectacular flowering, but the elderflower season is generally short. Look out for them from late May to mid-July, depending on where you live in the UK.
Freshly picked flowers make the best cordial. The flowers quickly lose their heady scent within a few hours, so make sure you have time to make the cordial after picking.
Dry, newly opened flower heads have the best fragrance. Pick them from late morning on a dry day to make sure they are not soggy with dew, and don't collect from roadsides in case they're tainted with exhaust fumes.
When you're collecting elderflowers, make sure you have permission from the landowner. See our guidelines for responsible foraging.

text: Hi, I'm a longtime casual/solo player (since 2006). If possible, I would like to see new chocographs added to Hot&Cold game as well as an increase to value of chocobuck slips (example: Morimar Basalt Field chest would yield a 20 buck slip). OR perhaps a slight chance of digging up chocobucks would be nice (like Conquest Points, Allied Notes, etc.). Thank you.

Institutions like Supreme Court, Election Commission being 'systematically captured' by RSS: Rahul Gandhi
There is a feeling among the people that one ideology is being imposed upon them, Gandhi said at an interaction with academicians.
Published: 22nd September 2018 05:39 PM | Last Updated: 22nd September 2018 05:39 PM | A+A A-
NEW DELHI: Congress president Rahul Gandhi Saturday alleged that institutions such as the Supreme Court and the Election Commission were being "systematically captured" by the RSS and said India cannot be run on one single idea.
There is a feeling among the people that one ideology is being imposed upon them, Gandhi said at an interaction with academicians here.
"(RSS chief) Mohan Bhagwat in his earlier speeches has said: 'We are going to organise the nation'. Who is he to organise the nation? The nation will organise itself. In next couple of months, their fantasy will be smashed," he asserted.

During the interaction with eminent academicians from across the country at the Siri Fort, Gandhi said there are two visions of India and the Congress' vision is that India constitutes of people who live in it.
The only way to understand India is talk to its people, he said.
Gandhi alleged that the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's vision of India is that of a "golden bird" which it views as a product. The product has to be monetised and utilised, and they will decide who will do this, the Congress chief said.
"What we are fighting is the attempted capture of this 'golden bird' by the RSS. They have understood very clearly that electoral battle for them, they can win it once, but they can't repeatedly win it. They have understood that. So, now what they are doing is that they are saying elections will come and elections will go, let us capture all of India's institutions and let us capture the golden bird with a bypass surgery," he said.
The educational institutions, the Supreme Court and the Election Commission of India, all these are "systematically being captured", Gandhi alleged.
Citing an example, he alleged, "When Mr (Narendra) Modi came to power, a person from Gujarat was chosen to head the SPG. In a short time, he left the position. He told me that he refused a list of SPG officers handpicked by the RSS, and that is why he was sent home," Gandhi claimed that the reason behind this attack on institutions was that there were monetary benefits for the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
"For me, it is impossible to lead India, without having a conversation with India. The idea is, I should be a reflection of what is in your heart," he said.
Gandhi told the professors that he knows that they were feeling under pressure and feeling that an ideology was being imposed on them.
"You feel that one syllabus has now suddenly become acceptable to every single institution in India and I want you to understand and realise that you are not alone when you are fighting this battle, this sense, this feeling that you are getting is not only in your heart, it is in the heart of every single Indian person, it is in the heart of the farmers, it is in the heart of the labourers, it is in the heart of small and medium business," Gandhi said.
A country of over a billion people cannot possibly be run on one single idea and the fact that people are allowed to express is the strength of the country, Gandhi said.
"Look at 3,000 years of India's history, we are going to win, we are not going to lose," Gandhi asserted.
Attacking the government over its education policy, Gandhi said government institutions should be given precedence over private institutions and the government should put money to strengthen them.
"There has to be space for private institutions, but the guiding light, the foundation, the super structure has to be the public education system," he said.
"The quality private institutions must look towards government institutions and say look that is an IIT that is something we aspire to, it shouldn't be the other way round," he said, adding that the government has to put money into the system.
He also recalled that former US president Barack Obama had said the real competition for America was from the engineers, doctors and lawyers coming out of India.
This was praise for the teachers of India, Gandhi said.
The Congress chief asserted that when it comes to the Indian education system, two things are non-negotiable -- teachers should be able to express and the they should be given a vision for their own future.
Gandhi said the Congress was commencing its work in drafting a manifesto and invited teachers to form a delegation and come forward with their demands.

Brand Associations
Volvo has so focused on the word 'safety' that it becomes more careful about the element of safety in everything they do. Volvo is famous for its subsequent marketing of different types of automobiles, which include Sedans, Station Wagons, Compact Executive Sedans, Coupes, and Sport Utility vehicles. Volvo first introduced the safety angle in the 1940s era, and it became obsessed in the 1960s. At that time, even consumers didn't care about safety, and no one uses seat belts. Volvo came up with a three-point seat belt, and with a patent right, the brand could earn millions, but it decided to share this idea with other car manufacturers.
Brand Awareness
Volvo has used the old marketing strategy for a long time, but now it has started using the new one, "Volvo Way to Market." The new marketing strategy is focusing on four main areas: marketing tools, digital leadership, dealership, and service. Volvo also organizes different car events in the U.S., Asia, and Europe. The sales of the cars rose 10% in Europe, 24% in the USA, and 11% in China in the last quarter of 2015. Overall revenue of the brand was 334.748 billion kronor, and the Net income was 21.383 billion kronor in 2017.
Brand Loyalty
Volvo is the name of authenticity, durability, and reliability for many decades. Consumers are loyal to the brand because of high-quality, affordable prices, and best safety products. The cars of the Volvo are mostly cost in between $25450 and $40800, and they are technologically advanced, too.The brand made a tremendous sales of 500,000 cars in 2015, and it was all because of the three target market regions. Most of the dominant customers of the Volvo cars are the USA, Sweden, China, and other European Union Countries.
Brand Assets
The Volvo's partners have limited freedom of choice regarding the trademark to run the company smoothly and independently. AB Volvo and Volvo Car Corporation, mutually own the Volvo brand, and only these two industrial entities use the trademark of their business.The subsidiaries of the Volvo are Renault Trucks, UD Trucks, Volvo Buses, Mack Trucks, and Volvo construction equipment. Volvo has over 2300 local dealers all around the globe, and it also has almost 100 national sales companies in more than 100 countries. The assets of the brand were 412.494 billion Swedish kronor, and the total equity was 109.011 billion Swedish kronor in 2017.
Brand Element
The company is own and preserve the trademarks of Volvo, the Volvo device marks (grille slash & iron mark), Volvo Aero, and Volvo Penta. The logo of the brand is unique, stylish, and in silver & blue color.
The brand is also focusing on maintaining the portfolio of registrations trademark, and it also has extended the scope of Volvo trademarks' protection of the company. Volvo's main activity is also to fight against the unauthorized registration of the trademarks that are similar or identical to the brand's trademarks on an international basis.

If you are going to start a new era, if you are a head coach for the first time — the head coach of the New York Jets, no less — you'd better expect the unexpected. Something unfathomable: your defense knocking a reckless Josh McCown out of the game in the first quarter with a concussion, and Johnny Football coming in off the bench and throwing a 54-yard touchdown pass as if he were back at Texas A&M, something like that.
If you are Todd Bowles, you get yourself a game ball handed to you in the locker room by D'Brickashaw Ferguson on a day when you acted like you had been there before because you showed up at MetLife Stadium with a raging Chris Ivory and an offensive line that played Bully Ball. You showed up with an opportunistic defense … but mostly because you showed up with a wise old head at quarterback named Ryan Fitzpatrick throwing the football to a wise old head at receiver named Brandon Marshall, one wily journeyman to another, carrying the rookie coach to Jets 31, Browns 10.
Ice Bowles.
"He's a calming presence," Fitzpatrick said. "He's also got a lot of fire, but you look at him on the sideline and just kind of feel at ease. He's very comfortable in who he is and in his role, and we certainly all feed off of that."
The feeling was mutual. It was Marshall's stunning strip of safety Tashaun Gipson's second-quarter interception that in the blink of an eye changed momentum and positioned Fitzpatrick at the Cleveland 9, and quickly it was 7-7.
"That play to me was the play of the game," Bowles said.
Marshall Law.
"When he caught it, first thing I thought about was getting the ball back," Marshall said.
First thing Geno Smith must have thought about was how much of a difference Marshall (six receptions, 62 yards, one touchdown) might have made for him.
"I think that play kind of shows his competitiveness," Fitzpatrick said. "Definitely owe him a soda pop for that one."
Fitzpatrick (15-for-24, 179 yards, two touchdowns, one interception) put the fizz in the halftime locker room with an efficient two-minute drive — three passes to Marshall — that culminated in a rifled 15-yard touchdown pass to Eric Decker. Jets 14, Browns 10. It was Fitzpatrick's favorite throw of the day.
"The two-minute drill, having to call that one at the line … me knowing pre-snap what Deck was going to do with the look that we got," Fitzpatrick said. "I just felt like there were a lot of things that came together on that one."
Harvard quarterbacks can figure these things out on the fly.
"He does everything right," Marshall said. "It'll take us 10 minutes to sit down and talk about everything that he does right. I just think it starts with the way he takes control of not only the huddle, but the entire building. So he's a great guy for all of us to follow. We're fortunate to have him."
An amazing trust has been built in a short amount of time between Fitzpatrick and Marshall.
"He's just played a lot of football," Fitzpatrick said. "And I think we understand each other, he understands a lot about this game, and he understands a lot about the quarterback's job, and that's very helpful for me for a wide receiver to have that."
That trust was on full display after a Marcus Williams pick set Fitzpatrick up at the Cleveland 28 early in the third quarter. On third-and-2, he got rid of the ball under duress to Marshall, whose toe-tap by the sideline got 17 yards.
Now Fitzpatrick had it third-and-goal at the Cleveland 1.
Now Marshall had a 1-yard touchdown catch in the right corner of the end zone.
Marshall: "I was kind of screaming at the coaches a little bit 'cause they took me off the field the play before, and it was a good feeling when they called me back in there. So once we saw one-on-one, I knew he was coming. It was all Fitz. [Joe] Haden jumped inside, Fitz put it only where I can catch it. That was routine."
Fitzpatrick: "The ref had kind of messed up in terms of the TV timeout, so we had to get back in the huddle. Brandon was on the sideline, told 'em he wanted the ball, I said, 'OK, let's put Brandon in, if we get the right look, we'll give him the ball.' He had a big size advantage, and he went up and got it. So that makes my job easy, to have a player like that as competitive as he is to go and make that play."
Bowles: "He throws them open. Even when they're covered, they're not covered."
Bowles' so-called Porsche is in good hands.
"So far, it's running well," Willie Colon said, and laughed.

Make sure you've latest SCCM version i.e. 1906 installed on the site, if you're planning to upgrade to latest Windows 10 version, i.e. 1909 as of this writing. If you don't have latest SCCM version install, you need to update the site first. Then ensure you've supported version of Windows ADK installed. Since this is Windows 7 to Windows 10 upgrade, we've to use task sequencing. Then download Windows 10 ISO form Microsoft Volume Licensing Center. After downloading the ISO file, extract it to a folder.
Deploying the Windows 10 Upgrade using SCCM
1. Open SCCM console, and navigate to Software Library > Operating Systems. Then right click Operating System Images and click Add Operating System Image.
2. This will open up Add Operating System Image Wizard, so browse to your ISO extracted .wim file and click Next. In General section, enter name, Windows 10 version and any comment you like to add and hit Next. On Summary section, review the information and click Next and complete this wizard.
3. Next, we'll distributed the added image now. So at Software Library > Operating Systems > Operating System Images, right click on image we just added and select Distribute content. This will open up Distribute Content Wizard, so provide the information required and complete this wizard.
4. Then add the OS upgrade package. In console, click on Software Library > Operating Systems > Operating System Upgrade Packages > Add Operating System Upgrade Packages. Provide the Data Source as the complete installation folder path under which setup.exe file is present and complete the wizard.
5. Now right click on added OS upgrade package and click Distribute Content and complete the wizard.
6. Next, we'll be creating task sequence for deploying upgrade. Under console, at Software Library > Operating Systems > right click Task Sequences and select Create Task Sequence. Choose your preferences and complete the wizard. Make sure you choose the correct operating system upgrade package here.
7. Moving on, right click on added task sequence and review everything. Although, SCCM takes care of most of things, but IMO, you should reconfirm everything.
8. Now right click on the task sequence added in step 6 and choose Deploy. This will open Deploy Software Wizard. Provide the General information and choose only one target machine. It is recommended that you deploy the upgrade to single Windows 7 computer initially. With this experiment, you can check if deployment works perfectly or not. If it doesn't works fine, you've options to rectify configuration before you deploy to all target machines. Complete the Deploy Software Wizard by adding your preferences.
9. Now log on to single Windows 7 target machine and go to Control Panel > right click Configuration Manager. On the property sheet, switch to Actions tab and select Machine Policy Retrieval & Evaluation Cycle and click Run Now. Then open Software Center via Start Menu or search. Under Applications, you should have upgrade task sequence we created in step 6 available, click on that.
10. Then click on Install button in the next screen. A confirmation prompt may appear, click Install Operating System on it.
11. Now the deployment will start, first system will download required files and restart to prepare upgrade and you'll then see actual upgrade being performed. This may take some time. Once the target machine is upgraded to Windows 10, you can configure it the way you like with SCCM.
12. If the upgrade went smoothly on one single target computer, you can go back to step 8 and configure the upgrade sequence for all machines and upgrade all of them to Windows 10.
In this way, you can deploy Windows 10 upgrade to multiple machines using SCCM.
That's it!

Do I have to be a good skater to join Team Rainbo?
No, you don't. In fact maybe you just started skating, that's fine. We've had many members who have showed up barely able to stand on skates. Many of them have gone on to be excellent skaters. If you're willing to work at learning, we're willing to teach you.
Do I have to race to be on Team Rainbo?
Nobody is required to attend races, but we certainly encourage you to do so. When you attend an event, you don't specifically have to "race" – you can skate to attain your own goals, such as finishing the event. The point of going to a race is not only the event itself, but also the participation in going with your team and enjoying the event as a whole.
At some races we have team dinners and spend time relaxing and going on easy skates as well. Finally, actually learning how to race and participating to do your best is a great thrill and a whole lot of fun.
What are practices like?
Outdoor practices are loosely structured. You'll generally fall in with a group that you can skate with, or you'll start with a challenging group and fall back to another group. We start with an easy warmup and proceed to skate for about an hour in pacelines, pushing each other. If you drop off a particular paceline, that's fine. You can skate with another group or even skate alone for awhile if you wish (although we encourage you to skate with others).
If you are not comfortable with pacelines (or don't know how to skate in them yet) that's not a problem. There will be people skating that are not drafting with whom you can skate and get both tips and a good workout.
Indoor practices are much more structured and geared toward refining technique. You can read more about indoor practices here.
What are inline races like?
Races are a lot of fun, first and foremost. At any event there are many different groups of skaters, from the elite pros to the recreational skater. Most events start off in "waves" where the most skilled skaters leave first, and the recreational skaters leave last. This allows you to skate with people at your level without fear of either getting run over or getting caught in a group that is too slow.
Many races have multiple distances, they are not all marathons. Some races have 10 milers, or half-marathon distances. The skating scene is made up of really friendly people and events are very upbeat. You'll find people cheering you on who you don't even know, and people are always ready to lend a hand if you need it. The bigger events have expos where you can see equipment and other skating goods and services. The end of the races is just like a running race, where there is food and drink followed by the giving out of prizes.
What kind of equipment do I need?
First and foremost – a helmet. Nobody skates with Team Rainbo without a helmet! You need skates of course, any kind will do to start. When you skate with the team you can get all the skate equipment advice you'll need. We do recommend wrist guards and knee pads if you are a beginner, and many of our most experienced skaters still wear them. Nothing else is required, although we would suggest wearing a wicking type material for shirt/shorts instead of cotton so you'll be more comfortable. You are not required to wear a skinsuit or the two piece lycra. You can if you want, but it is not a requirement.
Will there be coaching available?
Coaching is a team effort at Team Rainbo. We have a large group of very experienced skaters, some of which have been skating for decades, any of which can step in and advise you at any time. Cale Carvell (the team founder) will often skate up and down the pack and give out tips and advice. If you are coming out to practice and skating with the team, you'll get all the coaching you'll need. Indoor practices are specifically coached by Tom Sidor and are more structured, featuring specific skating exercises and drills.
What are the age ranges of skaters on the team?
No matter what your age, you'll fit in. We have skaters that are pre-teen and skaters that are well into their retirement years – and everything in between!
What happens if I fall?
Like any sport, inline skating has its share of risks, and falling is the primary risk. We all fall at some time or another, that is why we require and wear protective gear – especially a helmet. At some point you will fall down, but the most likely result is that you'll brush off your pride and your scrapes and get up again, little worse for wear.
The tougher falls happen at higher speeds with the more experienced skaters. Because they can be skating in excess of 20 mph, suddenly hitting the ground at that point can be interesting. The most likely results of such falls are generally "road rash" which can be both painful and a badge of honor. You can also end up with some fairly painful bruises, or in the worst cases, a broken bone. The best thing we can do to minimize the risks of a fall in inline skating are wear the proper protective gear and learn proper skating technique.
What does it cost to join?
For new members it costs $120 in dues, which includes $60 for a team uniform (your choice of skinsuit or a jersey/shorts combination). You also get a free team T-shirt. Thereafter, if you are not getting a new uniform for that particular season, then dues are $60.
What is the benefit of joining a speedskating team versus skating by myself?
Aside from the obvious cameraderie of a team and meeting new people with a like passion as yourself, there are many benefits. First and foremost, you'll learn from some of the best and most knowledgeable skaters in the country. Team Rainbo is well respected in the skating community, and many skaters to not have access to a team like Rainbo in their location.
There's no substitute for training with people who are better than you. You may be a beginner or you may have some natural talent, but training with a team of experienced skaters will benefit you in many ways. You'll become extremely fit, skating is an excellent workout. And you'll learn how to race and work with other skaters in a pack, something you cannot do on your own and something that is vital to our sport. Lastly, you'll enjoy the friendly people who make up Team Rainbo.

what are some good acting casting websites/apps?
3 Answers
- Katrina E.Lv 79 months agoFavorite Answer
Community theater websites list upcoming auditions. In some cities there may be a website listing all the upcoming open auditions in the area. The website of your local film commission may list opportunities for local independent films or extra work.
In the US, there are some websites like Actors Access, Backstage and Casting Networks for actors. Most casting calls are for low-to-no-pay jobs like student films and extra work in larger areas. There are some fees involved in submitting.
Understand that mainstream movies, TV shows and other professional work is cast through agents not websites. People invest a lot of money in their projects and they trust that investment to trained and experienced professionals so they're not searching the public for the "right" person. Most professional work is union meaning preference is given to actors who are members of actors union like SAG-AFTRA or AEA. Understanding how the business end of the industry can help you avoid scams.

You can apply for non-union jobs found on those websites to help you get some experience and build a resume and show reel.

Real auditions are found mainly through genuine agents.
And no-one is ever interested in auditioning a beginner.
Get a few years of training and stage experience and you'll gradually learn all the basics about a career in acting, as well as acting itself.

The massacre at Fort Hood yesterday is the second incident of violence perpetrated by an American soldier against other American soldiers in the last 6 months.
On May 9, 2009 Sgt. John Russell was being escorted from the stress clinic at the Camp Liberty base in Bagdad. He had been disarmed by his superiors and was undergoing mandatory treatment for combat stress. He assaulted the soldier escorting him, stole his pistol, returned to the clinic, and murdered five of the soldiers who worked there.
As more details emerge about yesterday's massacre and about its alleged perpetrator Major Nidal Malik Hasan, it seems the two men have some things in common.
First, neither of the men had a history of grievance or disloyalty to the military. Sgt. Russell had served for nearly 20 years without incident. Maj. Hasan had served for over 10 years and, while he had difficulties while working at Walter Reed hospital, his training director Dr. Thomas Grieger claims that in none of his work with Hasan addressing the difficulties were there any indications of disloyalty to the military.
Secondly, both men were being ordered to do something they didn't want to do. Sgt. Russell was ordered to receive stress treatments he didn't want. Maj. Hasan was ordered to deploy to Iraq and was adamantly opposed to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Military life, by definition, means obeying orders from superiors whether or not you like it – and the vast majority of soldiers live with this without resentment. Not all do, though, especially when they view what they're being ordered to do as a violation of their conscience or identity.
Thirdly, both men seemed to sense that the military had turned against them. Sgt. Russell's wife said he communicated his distress to her about being disarmed and forced into treatment by his superiors, and his dispute with them about it. Maj. Hasan reportedly complained about being harassed for his faith by fellow soldiers.
Which brings us to what may be a key difference in the two cases – the role of faith in the incidents. Sgt. Russell, it seems, did not kill his fellow soldiers out of any motivation provided by a religious perspective. The investigation into Maj. Hasan's motives are not yet complete or conclusive. Eyewitnesses report that he shouted "Allahu Akbar" ("God is Great") as he shot people. One of Maj. Hasan's military colleagues says he spoke about the need for Muslims to stand up against the aggressors (the United States) in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Many observers in the public have already concluded that Maj. Hasan's faith played a role in his actions. Some are calling for the questioning of all Muslims in the United States to determine their loyalty to the country. If that idea gains any traction in the coming weeks, we will need all the help we can get to endure the civil convulsions that will incur.
In that case, I hope that God is, indeed, great.

In 1952 Bob met and married a beautiful member of the British Royal Air Force, Barbara Lester while they were both on R&R in Goslar, Germany. Together they traveled the world as the family moved from duty station to duty station which included Ethiopia, Thailand, multiple tours in Germany, Virginia, Maryland and Washington DC. After living in Lacey, Washington for many years they moved to Whitefish in 2009.

Overview of the proposals
7.8.The Sexual Offences (Northern Ireland) Order 2008 is divided into seven parts. After an Introductory Part, the Order deals with: sexual offences which are offences because consent is absent, e.g. rape and assault; sexual offences against children; sexual offences against persons with a mental disorder; prostitution; and miscellaneous sexual offences. These are followed by three Schedules dealing with: minor and consequential amendments; transitional provisions and savings; and repeals.
7.9.Part 1 is introductory dealing with commencement and interpretation. Part 2 covers the non-consensual offences of rape, assault by penetration, sexual assault and causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent. A new definition for the offence of rape includes penetration of the mouth by the penis, together with new offences of assault by penetration with a body part (other than the penis) or anything else and sexual assault, and causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent. Part 2 also provides for new evidential and conclusive presumptions about consent, where consent is deemed to be absent unless evidence provided to the contrary, or, in some circumstances, conclusively deemed to be absent (e.g. if deception used or impersonation).
7.10.Part 3 provides a range of sex offences against a child under 16 to make it as easy as possible for any unacceptable behaviour to be prosecuted successfully. It also allows the main non-consensual offences of rape and assault to be used in cases involving children under 13 without any issue of consent being raised, e.g., if someone has sexual intercourse with a child under 13 the offence is automatically rape. It also provides that a child under 13 does not, under any circumstances, have any capacity to consent to any form of sexual activity.
7.11.Also included are provisions relating to offences where an adult is in a position of trust with a child. These offences cover all children under 18, however it is principally designed to protect young people aged 16 and 17 who, even though they are over the age of consent for sexual activity, are considered to be vulnerable to sexual abuse and exploitation from those who hold a position of trust or authority in relation to them.
7.12.Positions of trust include, for example, those employed in a residential home or detention centre or in an educational establishment.
7.13.There are provisions to cover sexual offences committed against children by family members and 'extended family' members, which reflects the modern nature of the family in society and aims to ensure that this area of sexual abuse against children, by far the most common circumstances where offending against children is found, is capable of returning a high rate of prosecutions.
7.14.The 'core family relationships' covered are: parent, grandparent, brother, sister, half-brother, half –sister, aunt, uncle, the same adoptive relationships, foster parent.
7.15.The second category of 'other family members' must have shared living accommodation or been in regular care of the child to be covered by the offence. They are: step-parent, cousins, step-siblings, foster siblings.
7.16.The third category is 'other persons' who live in the same household and who regularly care for the child. They include live-in partners.
7.17.Provision is also made for a set of offences specifically dealing with the exploitation of children through prostitution and pornography, including paying for the sexual services of a child, which provide protection for all children up to the age of 18.
7.18.The Protection of Children (Northern Ireland) Order 1978 and the Criminal Justice (Evidence, etc) (Northern Ireland) Order 1988 are amended so that offences relating to indecent photographs of children will now also be applicable where the photographs concerned are of children of 16 or 17 years of age. It also creates a number of conditions which if satisfied will mean that the defendant is not guilty of an offence, for example, if they are married to the person, or in an established relationship.
7.19.Part 4 covers offences designed to give protection to persons with a mental disorder. The offences cover situations where the victim is unable to agree to sexual activity because of a mental disorder which impedes their capacity to make an informed choice, or where it might appear that the victim had agreed to the sexual activity but because of a mental disorder which makes them vulnerable to inducements, threats or deceptions, or because they are in a relationship of care, their consent was not or could not be deemed to have been freely given.
7.20.Part 5 of the proposed Order covers offences relating to prostitution, including new offences to deal with the problem of loitering or persistent soliciting and kerb crawling. All offences relating to prostitution are drafted in gender-neutral terms.
7.21.Part 6 provides for preparatory offences, such as administering a substance with intent to commit a sexual offence, committing an offence with intent to commit a sexual offence and trespass with intent to commit a sexual offence. These offences offer protection in circumstances where the essence of the crime was of a sexual nature, rather than being the initial criminal offence itself. The common thread throughout these offences is that they apply regardless of whether the actual intended sexual act occurs.
7.22.It is also an offence for a person aged 16 or over intentionally to penetrate sexually a close relative who is aged 18 or over if he knows or could reasonably have been expected to know that it is his close relative. It is also an offence for a person aged 16 or over to consent to being penetrated sexually by a close relative aged 18 or over if he knows, or could reasonably have been expected to know, that it is his close relative.
7.23.This Part also covers miscellaneous sexual offences ranging from exposure and voyeurism to sexual penetration of a corpse. Also included is the offence of sexual activity in a public lavatory.
7.24.Part 7 provides that if an offence has been committed against someone under 16 outside of Northern Ireland, which would constitute an offence if done here, then the courts here can prosecute the offender if he resides in Northern Ireland. Part 7 also provides exceptions to aiding, abetting and counselling the commission against a child of an offence; amendment to the Sexual Offences Act 2003 and the Criminal Law Act (Northern Ireland) 1967; defines order or rule making powers by the Secretary of State; and details other minor and consequential amendments and repeals.

SANDUSKY, Ohio — Cedar Point amusement park has announced the closing of the "Mean Streak," which was once the tallest and fastest wooden roller coaster in the world.
The Mean Streak has been in use for 25 years. Cedar Point says more than 26 million people have ridden the 161-foot high ride since it opened in 1991.
According to ultimaterollercoaster.com, four wooden roller coasters overtook it in the 2000 as the world's tallest wooden roller coaster, including "Colossos," "Outlaw Run," "El Toro" and the world record holder, Illinois's own "Goliath."
Cedar Point posted a farewell video on YouTube that has more than 25,000 likes.
Roller coaster enthusiast Marcus Leshock from WGN took to Facebook to share the news. He asked fans which new coaster they predict will replace the "Mean Streak."
A closing ceremony for the roller coaster will take place Sept. 16.
Information from the Associated Press was included in this report.

The meltdown in the markets is pretty big news and that will send gold surging so now is the time to buy gold! Go check out Google for more information on; – Deutsche bank collapse – Iran not taking dollars – new India/Russia/China currency agreement
The reason we suggest searching on Google is because governments just won't allow the national press and broadcasting media to report what is REALLY going on!
"If the populations of The UK, USA, Canada, Japan etc REALLY knew what was going on, there would be a rush on the banks tomorrow"
The News Story from the 11th February 2016 will Really Affect You!
Here is a summary of what is going on:
- Gold jumped over 5.5% (+£45.01/ oz) in just 24 hours as the stock markets continue to sink – The penny is finally dropping!
- Despite recovering slightly, the FTSE plummeted further, passing the 3-year low it had already set on the Tuesday.
- Gold rose over 9% (+£72.16/ oz t) this week to a 13-month high and the opinions are that the precious metal has broken out of the downward trend experienced the last five years is now strong.
- The worldwide markets have taken a beating, forced down by falling crude oil prices and faltering banks. Société Générale shares fell by more than 14% this morning after the French bank announced that it may miss its profit target this year, and WTI crude oil has dropped by 2.8% to a near 13-year low at just below $27 per barrel.
- The Hang Seng index in Hong Kong fell almost 4% this morning after being closed for the Chinese New Year, and the dollar has fallen again to a 15-month low against the Yen as Fed chair woman Janet Yellen remains non-committal on her planned interest rate hikes.
- The demand for precious metals historically demonstrates a negative correlation with the strength of the US dollar and, as is typical for this relationship, falling confidence in the US currency has seen investors flock to the safety of gold this week.
With this information it should certainly drive you to consider diversifying your investments into gold and Karatbars offers the best quality and priced gold. If you want to understand why, this video will explain Karatbars pricing.
Here's the thing… don't wait for gold to get back to £1200 per ounce and then shoot off to $2000 or $3000 per ounce and then say to yourself "I should have bought some when it was $1200"
Take stock of your life and start shifting some of your income into gold NOW. You can go online to bullion sites and buy there but one of the places we recommend is Karatbars, because its good value AND when you refer others to buy 1grams, 2.5grams or 5grams at the best prices, you benefit and could actually find your gold purchases are covered. Its a no brainer really. There is no minimum order, no fee's, subscriptions or hidden charges.
If you don't want to hold your gold physically you can keep it in storage in Germany for FREE or get Fedex delivery for just €13.50 inside Europe or €18.50 outside Europe and over 100 grams is free delivery.
Here at Click2getstarted we have been predicting that the economy and the need for gold was going to happen since 2013. There HAS to be a global currency reset and it looks like the meltdown has already started.
All we can do at Click2getstarted and Karatbars is educate the masses and give them the opportunity to protect themselves and their family. Our opinion is that gold will easily surpass $2000 per ounce, and that the current monetary system just has to collapse. The USA is in debt to the tune of $19 trillion to other countries but derivative debt is running into Quadrillions.! The fiat currency system is running out of time and cannot mathematically survive.
Take the opportunity to buy as much gold as you can afford, so that you are in possession of real money – if and when it happens.

On a small, bustling farm, a resilient and steadfast pickup works tirelessly alongside the family that lives there, and becomes a part of the dreams and ambitions of the family's young daughter.After long days and years of hard work leave the old truck rusting in the weeds, it's time for the girl to roll up her sleeves. Soon she is running her own busy farm, and in the midst of all the repairing and restoring, it may be time to bring her faithful childhood companion back to life.With an eye-catching retro design and cleverly nuanced illustrations, The Old Truck celebrates the rewards of determination and the value of imagination.

Publisher's Weekly Review
In the Pumphrey brothers' debut, an old truck's maturation mirrors a brown-skinned girl's growth into adulthood. "On a small farm, an old truck worked hard," the narrative begins as illustrations reveal the family's corresponding exertion, loading bushel baskets filled with veggies into the truck's bed. As "the old truck rested," weeds slowly covering its wheels, then its body, it also serves as a vehicle for the child's imagination ("The old truck sailed the seas,/ braved the skies,/ and chased the stars"). As the young woman matures, she finishes rebuilding a tractor she began working on with her father, becomes "a new farmer," and employs the tractor in towing the truck, then restoring it. The narrative comes full circle as the old truck, now repainted and running, works hard once again alongside the farmer and her own daughter. The illustrations, created from more than 250 stamps, resonate in spare compositions and mellow earth tones. A celebration of diligence and grit, the quiet text conjures a cyclical Giving Tree--reminiscent relationship, but with a healthier, deeply loving dynamic. Ages 3--5. (Jan.)
Horn Book Review
The author-illustrator brothers tell the story of a family farm and the truck that assists with chores. As the hard-working truck ages, so does the farming couples young daughter. The two are a pair, making this story, despite the title, as much hers as it is the vehicles. The Pumphreys allow their retro, earth-toned illustrations room to breathe in an uncluttered, gently paced presentation. Rendered via a mixture of low-tech (hand carved stamps...) and high (...which are then digitally manipulated), the illustrations are infused with cheer (the farmers are always smiling) and playfulness. As a young child, the girl imagines spectacular adventures with the sturdy truck. In a series of three spreads, as she sleeps snug in her bed, we are privy to her dreamsof her and the shape-shifting truck on the ocean, in the air, and in space. As an adult, she becomes the new farmer who pulls the tired, neglected truck out of the weeds to rehabilitate it. Its refreshing to see an African American farming family depicted in a picture book, as well as determined, resilient women who farm. The final spread shows a child (who appears to be the womans daughter) on the bed of the newly remodeled truck, representing the next generation of industrious farmers.

Booklist Review
Featuring spare, simply rendered prose and illuminated by bright, lovely art, this endearing picture book follows a beloved farm truck over the years, alongside the experiences of the daughter of the farm family. On a small farm, an old truck worked hard, the story opens, as a Black family loads up the cheery red truck with produce on a spring morning and unpacks empty bushels as fall rolls in. Nightfall brings sleep and dreams, as the truck and the girl embark on fanciful adventures together, exploring ocean, sky, and beyond. However, gradually, the truck falls into disrepair, and the detailed illustrations progressively show time passing snowy bare-branch trees bloom in spring; the girl grows taller; the barn fades from red to sandy brown. Eventually, on a small farm, a new farmer worked hard, and readers see the girl, now an adult, working the farm independently and successfully restoring the truck. Then, recalling the opening scene, the Pumphreys depict the truck again being filled with produce by the woman, alongside her own daughter. The blocky, bright, folk art-style illustrations, composed of prints made from handmade stamps, judiciously use color and composition to deepen and extend the narrative, emphasizing both a sense of change as well as continuity and interconnectedness. This affectionate, pithy, and eloquent homage to farm life and, quietly, Black families running farms, a rare sight in picture books is uncommonly charming and rewards repeat readings.--Shelle Rosenfeld Copyright 2019 Booklist
School Library Journal Review
PreS-Gr 1--The Pumphrey brothers crafted more than 250 individual stamps to create splendid retro, full-bleed illustrations to accompany the saga of a farm truck's life. The red pickup is a mainstay in the family, as a young girl helps her parents with crops and critters. When the vehicle is no longer reparable, it sits abandoned near her bedroom window. She dreams of it converting into a tow for her submarine, a helicopter, or taking her to outer space. The girl grows up as the book progresses. The truck is covered by snow, then foliage, then disappears into long grasses. Many seasons later, the young woman restores the truck to assist her own running of the farm. VERDICT The simple text in this gentle chronicle of years blazes with the power of family, determination, and perseverance.--Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA
Kirkus Review
The eponymous old truck serves as the vehicle for a quiet story about farm life and hard work.Brothers Jarrett and Jerome Pumphrey created over 250 stamps to create the striking illustrations that give the book a distinct look and echo the message of hard work and persistence pouring from it. The declarative simplicity of the text is perfect for an emerging reader without betraying the strength of the story. As the book describes how hardworking the truck is, readers see the smiling, brown-skinned parents and daughter, wordlessly at work. The family can be seen loading produce onto the truck, carrying baskets back into the barn, feeding chickens, and fixing the truck. The placement of the sun on the horizon line demonstrates how long the family works each day. At night, the daughter dreams: "The old truck sailed the seas, / braved the skies, / and chased the stars." As the truck ages, so does the family; most notably, readers see the girl grow into a woman. Now "the new farmer," she tows the truck out of tall grass. She works long into the night to repair it. But dreams and persistence pay off: "VROOOOOOOM!!" This heartfelt celebration of resilience in the face of change, with a determined black woman at its center, packs a powerful punch.As the old truck stays with its family, this charming book will stay with readers.

Recently, the NCAA announced yet another working group designed to help the governing body of college sports evolve as everything around it changes. This time around, Mark Emmert and NCAA Board of Governors designated a group to study issues highlighted in recent state and federal court hearings involving student-athletes' name, image and likeness.
It's another snag at crippling the forever running debate between a belief system founded under the idea of amateurism going against those who would like the labor compensated in a way the market dictates. If a proponent of the pay-to-play model, it sounds like a step in the right direction.
A single statement in this announcement, however, puts to bed any idea of this group creating a true impact in terms relative to labor compensation.
"While the formation of this group is an important step to confirming what we believe as an association, the group's work will not result in paying students as employees," said Gene Smith, Ohio State senior vice president and athletics director and working group co-chair. "That structure is contrary to the NCAA's educational mission and will not be a part of this discussion."
It can be inferred, by simply looking at Smith's statement, the NCAA isn't using this endeavor to take earnest steps forward. Instead, as literally echoed by the Ohio State vice president, it's a move being made under the guise of good faith to confirm something the association already believes.
Furthermore, and potentially more important, it's something the NCAA wants everyone to get behind.
To be Camp Crystal Lake clear: The study could result in compensation for name, image and likeness, most likely through third-party, non-NCAA affiliated organizations. However, this is a group created to monitor those specific matters of contention, all of which hover directly over skilled labor compensation affairs, without the possibility of direct pay as a solution ever being an option.
Purposely, at least presumably, it puts the working group inside a box of the NCAA's own creation. If an outright refusal to directly pay the labor prior to the group even starting its venture is the starting line, the endeavor isn't so much pointless as it is consciously drawing a conclusion beforehand, then forcing the voyage to get there — regardless of potential contrasting evidence.
On its very surface, this entire charade avoids any such theories going against the governing body's ideological belief that amateurism is good and paying players would in some way corrupt it beyond repair.
Logical minds have long argued the NCAA, as well as university presidents who use the umbrella organization to shield themselves from criticisms, hide behind an often redefined term like amateurism to avoid paying players, creating a large gap between those with all the money and power from those without it — making it increasingly difficult for the latter to obtain more of either.
In any other field drawing millions of dollars in an industrialized world, a trust created to look at issues circling around pay and labor rights would be forced to at least kick the tires on compensation playing a role in probable solutions.
And still, through magic, that argument can be moved to the wayside, as it's clearly part of the larger discussion, but not the literal flaw in the working group's starting point.
If any entity creates a brain trust, working group, or whatever else have you, but begins the campaign with a predetermined conclusion already made, every theory and discovery made along the journey is going to be for nothing and riddled with flaws.
In the scientific community, doctors and specialists don't reach their conclusion first. Rather, people working on whatever potential discovery or theory begin without an endgame. Even if there's a theory with one, those tasked to prove it begin their process by first trying to debunk the original scientist's conclusion.
The best, least problematic way to determine if something is working correctly isn't to drum up affirmations first and only. It's to do the opposite for as long as you can until it can either be proven to be a viable option or determined as a doomed model.
While college basketball, or any other money sport, has no need to function with the same standard as the scientific populace, the latter certainly highlights the former's flaws at trying to get to the bottom of an issue that's only a problem because of the laborers' status within its power and financial structure.
"This group will bring together diverse opinions from the membership — from presidents and commissioners to student-athletes — that will examine the NCAA's position on name, image and likeness benefits and potentially propose rule modifications tethered to education," said Val Ackerman, commissioner of the Big East and working group co-chair. "We believe the time is right for these discussions and look forward to a thorough assessment of the many complexities involved in this area."
That's a whole bunch of words cobbled together to form a statement. It's also meaningless if the outcome, even if only partially, is predetermined.

YAY! Images on 2018 Kentucky Humane Society Annual Report Cover!
It was such an amazing surprise to not only see my shelter pet photography on the front cover of the 2018 Kentucky Humane Society Annual report, but to also find one of my cat portraits on the back cover as well! It is rewarding to see my final images on line, but there is something really special about seeing your work in print as well.
I have been so grateful to have the opportunity to volunteer one day a week with the Kentucky Humane Society this past year. I have not only had the opportunity to enjoy spending time with the shelter dogs and cats and been able to refine my pet photography skills, but I have gotten to know many of the amazing employees and volunteers at the Kentucky Humane Society who work so tirelessly to find forever homes for companion animals throughout Kentucky. Click here to learn more about the mission and service offered by the Kentucky Humane Society.
KHS will always hold a special place in my heart, as they helped Beckett find her way into our hearts and home. I can't image our "pack" without her and she was the inspiration to my pursuit of pet photography. Find about more about Beckett on the Meet Our Team page in the About section of our webpage.

The front fairing for Transit vans is designed to mount to our Low Pro Series Roof Racks and it's a great finishing piece for your rack. Fairings are designed to reduce wind noise and drag, as well as improving fuel economy.
It features a classic fairing look - made out of aluminum and powder-coated black. This piece mounts easily to the front of the first crossbar. We recommend doing this on the ground as it's easiest to put the T nuts in on the fairing and slide it into the extrusion then tighten everything down. From there you can place the front bar where you like it at the front of the rack.
