TAMESIDE'S historic Central Library and Art Gallery is to close to the public and be converted into council offices under new plans.
Town hall chiefs want to move the library service into the new Tameside One building on Wellington Road, part of the multi-million pound Vision Tameside project.
But art lovers will be left without an alternative to the Central gallery in Ashton once its doors close in January.
Relocating the library facility out of the Grade II listed building on Old Street means it will be made 'redundant', according to plans submitted by the council.
Officers say the move comes as part of the borough's 'wider rationalisation' of its library service, and Tameside One offers easier access to more residents.
The proposal by the authority is to convert the 125-year-old building into offices to house 150 council staff, as a way of 'conserving' its heritage.
The library was originally built from money bequeathed by George Heginbottom JP and designed by architects John Eaton and Sons in Victorian Gothic style.
Proposals to offset the loss of gallery and art space in Tameside are due to be discussed by executive cabinet at Dukinfield Town Hall.
As part of the plans, the opening hours of the Astley Cheetham Art Gallery in Stalybridge will be increased to ensure residents have access to exhibitions after the closure of the Central building.
The gallery is currently open just two Saturdays a month, which would rise to 17 hours a week once a redevelopment of the gallery is complete.
In the cabinet report, Tameside's head of environmental development Alison Lloyd-Walsh states that once reopened it would see an 'enhanced visitor experience and more artworks on show'.
The redevelopment would consist of new flooring, seating and lighting, investment in moveable display walls and repainting the gallery.
But bosses say it is their 'hope and ambition' in the long term, if funding can be secured, to have a space for arts and exhibitions in Ashton town centre.
The plans drawn up for the redevelopment of the Museum of the Manchester Regiment on the ground floor of Ashton Town Hall includes two spaces for art to be displayed.
One space would display the Harry Rutherford collection currently held at the Central building, and the other would be a changing exhibition space for local and regional artists.
However, when the redevelopment can take place will be subject to what capital funding can be allocated to the scheme.

While the It Was Tuesday family is taking the holidays off, I am busy putting together assets and resources for our upcoming January/February season.
The month of January has five Tuesdays in it, and February has four, which means we are once again going to have to have a week off in order to maintain an eight week season. I usually try to have a week off at the halfway point, which in this case would be January 31st. BUT, we also have Valentine's Day landing on a Tuesday as well.
So, please, take the time and cast a vote for which week you would like It Was Tuesday to take off.
Update: Poll is closed

Hello, i need help with data visualization. I need to visualize a lot of data. You need to do it in 2d and 3d modes.
It is desirable that I was able to quickly switch between modes. Can anyone give me a tool where I can do this?
I understand that my question doesn't quite match the theme of the forum. But I hope someone can help me.
What tool can be used to visualize data in 2D and 3D modes?

Doing the jobs Americans won't do.
(Hat tip: Vox Popoli)
Denver Colorado is about to smell worse than piss-soaked shit-stained San Francisco. The city voted to essentially decriminalize public urination and defecation and the reason is as liberal as it gets. The city is now becoming a giant toilet to help protect illegal aliens from deportation. Denver is not only a sanctuary city for criminal immigrant scumbags but also now a sanctuary for human waste.9 News reports that the Denver City Council voted to lessen the penalties for certain crimes including pissing, shitting, and whoring in public. Under the old law, these offenses were punishable by up to a year in jail and a $1000 fine. Under the new law, these disgusting acts will carry no fine whatsoever.Here's a fun list of things Denver will no longer consider to be a serious crime:Sitting or lying in the public right-of-way
Unauthorized camping on public or private property prohibited
Urinating or defecating in public
Curfews and closures
Storage and loading

Latest from Erik Soderstrom
With great trepidation, I tuned into Thursday night's episode of NBC's The Night Shift, knowing the plot would center on a mass school shooting and dreading slogging through a predictable story line. Imagine my surprise when conservatives not only weren't the predictable, caricaturized villains commonly found flinging lead on network television, but were instead the victims of an amped up, coordinated anti-speech mob attack.
When Islamic extremists attack a military awards ceremony on a primetime television show, you can bet that within a few episodes it will be made clear that the suicide-vested attackers shouting "Allahu Akbar" will be absolved. The terrorism was just an act, theater for the witnesses and victims meant to distract the populace from the real attackers. In Shooter, the real perpetrator is our very own government—and possibly the United Nations.
For an hour, Mr. Mackey sat on my screen chanting "Guns are bad, Mkay." Just minutes into the June 11th comedy special, all was clear: gun owners are "dumb people" with small—what drives liberals' constant fascination with human sexual anatomy—who are being led like mindless sheep by the big, bad NRA. Although he never mentions the Brady Campaign or any of Michael Bloomberg's bevy of anti-gun organizations, Klepper dutifully repeats their dogmatic hypothesis: all Americans already support a liberal wish list of gun restrictions which would sail through Congress but for the NRA's meddling.
The May 17 episode of NBC's reliably liberal Law and Order: Special Victims Unit quickly picked up the mantle of anti-Christian media, portraying Christians as humorless stiffs who believe rape can cure homosexuality. The episode centers on Ann Davenport, a small town girl from Indiana on a church trip to New York City. While the group is meandering through Times Square, Ann has the audacity to reach out to her lesbian friend Lydia who left Indiana at 16 to move to the city.
The opening of the May 3 episode of Law and Order: Special Victims Unit was eerily reminiscent of the actual scandal from which the episode was cribbed. Comet Ping Pong pizza parlor was exchanged for the "Coral Dragon" Chinese restaurant, but the basic story was identical. Intrepid conspiracy theorists uncovered a secret code in hacked emails that detailed a Congressional child sex ring. Countless victims were being held in the restaurant's non-existent basement, just waiting for a brave "self-investigator" to rescue them.
"This thing you're doing, it's not a cause. … There is no change, Jas. You haven't changed anything." Those lines from an exasperated Kent (Idris Elba) on the April 23rd episode of Showtime's Guerrilla epitomize the failure of British black power activists' violent actions in this series based in the 1970s.
Showtime's newest series, Guerrilla, premiered Sunday night to bring the rise of the British black power movement in the 1970s to the small screen. The show is tailor-made to feed the worst assumptions about police brutality and institutional racism. At least in the series premiere, the police are depicted as irredeemably corrupt, wantonly abusing their power to terrorize Britain's black community, the embodiment of the modern Black Lives Matter movement's most virulent rhetoric.
The latest episode of ABC's Designated Survivor made it abundantly clear that the conspiracy element of this show is merely a thin patina of intrigue allowing the writers to wipe away Republican congressional majorities and fantasize about the "progress" they could be making in the wake of a massive crisis. The April 12 episode doubled down on last week's anti-gun rhetoric, mentioning "background checks" once every 3.8 minutes.
The Wednesday, April 5, episode of ABC's conspiracy drama, Designated Survivor, may as well have been written by the Brady Campaign, or any one of Michael Bloomberg's consortium of anti-Second Amendment organizations. For those unfamiliar with Kiefer Sutherland's new role as President Tom Kirkman, he seems to have done a complete 180 from his days as 24's Jack Bauer.
In a dramatic episode on Monday night, Quantico finally righted a colossal historical atrocity. They handed the White House to America's first (unelected) female president. After watching terrorists murder his wife, President Todd resigns and hands the reigns to his far more qualified running mate, Vice President Claire Haas. But even before she can begin, Haas is besieged by doubters.
When the lead actor, Walton Goggins, told Yahoo TV his character Rip Taggart "is a war criminal," the editorial direction of the History Channel's new fictionalized drama, SIX, should have been clear. History's new series artistically blurs the lines between American soldiers and the terrorists they fight, conveniently sweeping aside ideologies with a wand of relativism that turns cold-blooded murderers into righteous crusaders and blames Americans for inspiring foreign terrorism.
In Tuesday night's episode of USA's Shooter, Bob Lee Swagger (Ryan Phillippe) finally locates the actual bullet used to assassinate the Ukrainian president, a vital piece of evidence in his quest to clear his name. The bullet is essentially undamaged, the audience learns, and it's unlike any other bullet on the market. In a scene reminiscent of the notorious Die Hard Glock 7, viewers are told this bullet was illegally manufactured from "hardened polymer."
In an episode titled "#StayWoke," ABC's newest crime procedural, Conviction, went all-in on Black Lives Matter talking points. Within the first five minutes of the episode, various characters claim that white defendants get a pass, black demonstrations are called "riots," but when whites riot it's called a "demonstration," that "justice is clearly not color-blind," and that the black defendant at the heart of the episode was railroaded by an all-white jury in Albany.
In an overt nod to the continued liberal outcry about North Carolina's House Bill 2, Law and Order: SVU took up the transgender cause once again on Wednesday in the episode "Broken Rhymes" by depicting an innocent male to female transgender getting brutally beaten and raped in a public restroom.
Thursday night's Notorious, ABC's navel-gazing news media drama, called out Brian Williams in an episode that revolved around the lead character Julia George's (Piper Perabo) disgraced former mentor, Dana Hartman. The former anchor was canned after it came out that she had fabricated an interview for her show. The fake interview led to the assassination of its real-world subject and Julia turned her in to the LA Times and the fallout ended Hartman's news career.
Last Friday's episode of Hawaii Five-0, "Ke Ku 'Ana," is full of embarrassing falsehoods and other anti-gun propaganda. Kyle Kane is a deranged father who blames gun culture for the mass shooting perpetrated by his son, so he holds a room full of hostages at gunpoint to send a message. Left unstated: Kyle's son obtained his firearm through a straw purchase, a process that is already illegal and carries a sentence of up to ten years in prison and a $250,000 fine for the purchase alone even if the illegally purchased firearm were never used in another crime.
Ever eager to do their part this election, Family Guy decided to wade into the 2016 presidential election on behalf of Hillary Clinton by including the "Trump tapes" as part of last night's episode, "American Gigg-olo." Crammed into a plot that spent most of its time following striking pilot turned male prostitute, Glenn Quagmire, Family Guy's writers weakly shoehorned the embarrassing video into the episode by cutting in audio as if the show's main character, Peter Griffin, had also been aboard the Access Hollywood bus during the hot mic incident.
Gun owners in America should be applauding Last Man Standing's portrayal of gun owners and "gun culture" in Friday night's episode, "Boyd will be Boyd." The ABC sitcom hit all the right notes, putting gun safety front and center and showing how shooting sports can bring families together.
The series opener of CBS's police drama, Blue Bloods, gave a perspective on officer-involved shootings often overlooked in the current media climate: the police officer's. The episode, "The Greater Good," opens with the District Attorney Robert Lewis (Michael Imperioli) reopening an investigation into Danny Reagan's (Donnie Wahlberg) shooting of an unarmed serial killer.
In its season two opener, NBC's big box store comedy, Superstore, continued its sharp left turn left. At the end of the show's first season, a majority of Cloud 9's employees went on strike after the store manager was fired for "suspending" an employee, with pay, who had just given birth in the store because the corporate office had refused to offer maternity leave to its associates.

Empty military boots and helmets marked the space where the fallen airmen might have stood.
EGLIN AFB � Empty military boots and helmets marked the space where the fallen airmen might have stood.
They might have straightened their spines, pulled back their shoulders and raised their arms in rigid salute as the honor guard marched by carrying the American flag through the heavy, humid air.
But those airmen are gone, lost in a terrorist bombing at Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia on June 25, 1996.
On Tuesday, dozens of people gathered at a memorial honoring the 19 American men killed in the attack, showing that although gone, they are not forgotten.
See photos of the ceremony. >>
Twelve of the airmen were members of what is now the 33rd Fighter Wing at Eglin. Their faces are etched into the memorial�s stone wall. A sword, eternally engulfed in flames, stands tall out of a rock in front of the wall, which also shows the names of the seven airmen from Patrick Air Force Base who were killed.
�It has been 17 years since that tragic day,� Col. Todd Canterbury, current commander of the 33rd Fighter Wing, said during the ceremony. �Despite the years, the flame of remembrance we see here continues to burn bright, signifying their service still matters.�
About 15 family members of those killed in the attack attended the remembrance.
Airman 1st Class Joseph Rimkus, 22, died after the building he was in collapsed in the blast. His younger brother, James Ryan Rimkus, who was 20 at the time, attended the ceremony for the first time in his life, although he lives nearby in Valparaiso.
�I really haven�t properly grieved yet,� he said. �This is so hard. I feel him right here, in my chest.�
James Rimkus had joined the Navy and was in boot camp when he received word that his brother had decided to join the Air Force. They enlisted two weeks apart.
His brother�s death tore him apart. He left the Navy shortly after and struggled for many years to deal with the loss.
�I leaned on him more than I thought I did, until he died and I realized just how much,� he said.
Shyrl Johnson traveled to the memorial from Central Florida to honor her late husband, Staff Sgt. Kenneth Johnson, who left behind two sons � one 2 months old and the other 4 years old.
His sons, now grown, sat at their mother�s side.
�To think of this day every year is hard,� she said. �But when you are surrounded by people who haven�t forgotten, that makes it a little better.�
The airmen were deployed in support of Operation Southern Watch, which was tasked with patrolling the no-fly zone over Iraq after the Gulf War.
On the evening of the attack, a large truck drove as close as it could to one of the compound�s buildings and detonated in a huge explosion.
Across the base, Lt. Col. Brian Henson, a maintenance officer on his first deployment, was working the late shift on the flight line.
He saw what he thought was lightning and heard what sounded like thunder.
�How is there a thunderstorm in the middle of the desert?� he thought.
Then he realized they�d been attacked.
They wanted to run to the building to find their friends, their brothers, to dig through the rubble.
But they had to stay put. There was no one else to do their job.
�This is it,� he said they thought at the time. �This is all we have.�
He said there was no time for sadness, for fear, for shock. They kicked into gear, preparing the flight line and the jets for what was next.
�We could have been raging, but we knew this is a part of the job, this is the risk we take,� Henson said. �Our job is to maintain and persevere.�
The rest of the airmen came to them; they didn�t know where else to go. They set up a makeshift barracks in the flight hangar.
He remembers visiting with the wounded.
�These poor 23-year-old kids, cut to pieces, glass everywhere,� he said. �I will never forget seeing that, they were just asking about everyone else, their roommate, their friends.�
Many returned to work.
�We were hurt, but not broken,� Henson said.
It wasn�t until days later when he got off the plane at Eglin that he was able to let down the strong shell he�d been carrying since the attack.
�That was tough,� he said.
Hundreds of people were on the flight line to greet them, the last of the airmen to return after the bombing.
�To see the outpour of welcoming, that�s when I broke down,� Henson said.
Although it was his first deployment, he said the attacks did not deter him from his service.
�I signed up to be a part of something through thick and thin,� he said.
Henson was the guest speaker at Tuesday�s ceremony. He has just been stationed again at Eglin for the first time in more than a decade. He serves as program manager for the B61 nuclear weapon modernization program.
He said he was honored to be a part of the ceremony, and remembers well what the families of the fallen went through in the days immediately following the attack.
�I want them to know that that day is never going to be forgotten and the faces that they see on these stones were never lost to the 33rd.�

Azhar's filmmakers have cancelled the plan to release the teaser on the day of IPL 8 finals in Kolkata. Reportedly, some sources cited the reason of 'security concerns' (or insecurity to the movie) due to which the filmmakers had to drop the idea. Featuring the serial kisser Emraan Hashmir and Prachi Desai in lead roles, observing the story of former Indian cricket Mohammad Azharuddion, 'Azhar' is directed by Anthony D'Souza.
An online publication quoted the director saying,
There couldn't have been a more apt timing and venue for us to launch the teaser. However, we have now been told that there are certain technical issues due to which we won't be going to Kolkata and instead, launch the teaser in a studio here during one of the pre-match shows. Anthony D'Souza
It is produced by Bala Ji Motion Pictures, the CCO of production house, Tanveer Bookwala stated,
Azhar has an incredible fan base in Kolkata. Now comibe that with Emraan's fan following and the response to this idea would have been overwhelming to say at least. In the mist of this, security did become a big concern and we had to pull out. Not teaser launches are allowed in the matches. They (the team) will now be in the studio during the IPL finale. Tanveer Bookwala
Now that BBCI disapproved the application of Balaji to launch their teaser, the teaser is expected to release with an upcoming release at the box office.
The director further added, "Not this month, but the teaser will be attached with the next release at the Box Office next month."
Azhar portrays the living legend Azharuddin's life story, who earned fame and name with cricket in Indian and overseas. Emraan will play Mohm. role and Prachi as his wife. Another actress is yet to join the cast who will represent the alleged affair of Mohm. to Sangeeta Bijlani. It will be the first biopic of the year.

The cancer centre is a part of the Virga Jesseziekenhuis (580 beds). The oncology units are very closely located in the hospital. The radiotherapy unit comprises 3 linear accelerators, the hospitalisation medical oncology 30 beds, haematology 17 beds, large outpatient clinic, aferese unit and the palliative care unit 7 beds.
The physicians involved in the care for oncology patients are radiotherapy-oncologists (3), internal medicine-medical oncology (2), internal medicine-haematology (4), called "Limburgs Oncologisch Centrum" and palliative care (1 full-time physician). The physician involved in palliative care is a general practitioner with extensive palliative care training (first training in the U.K. in 1988) and full time experience for 10 years, training other doctors in palliative care. Together with a psychologist and 2 nurses he is member of the palliative support team on the oncology wards. There is a very closely and daily interaction between all engaged physicians, in this manner oncology patients are treated by a multidisciplinary team. There is a dedicated and well-trained nursing department for oncology patients, most nurses follow on a regular basis education for oncology nursing. The nurses working on the palliative care department are dedicated only for providing palliative care.
In a recent national survey for primary care physicians, our oncology centre was quoted as 4th best oncology centre nationwide. Our centre's goal is to provide integrated and personal care for all cancer patients, based on high quality cancer care.
A special unit provides clinical trials to our patients, we were the first centre in the region to provide oncologic rehabilitation and we offer services for all tumour-types. Special attention is given to the psychosocial support, close cooperation with the general practitioners. A multidisciplinary breast cancer unit exists complying to the EUSOMA guidelines.
Supportive care is a special point of attention: laser unit for treating mucositis, scalp coolers. The radiotherapy unit offers brachytherapy and stereotactic irradiation. The haematology unit offers a full service including auto-transplantations.

We call for golden beets, but regular beets work just as well in this flavorful salad. You can also use a mixture of both for a colorful, pretty platter.
How to Make It
Preheat oven to 350°.
Leave root and 1-inch stem on beets; scrub with a brush. Place beets, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon garlic, 1 teaspoon thyme, and 1 teaspoon tarragon in a large bowl; toss gently. Place beet mixture on a jelly-roll pan. Bake at 350° for 1 hour or until beets are tender. Drain and cool slightly. Trim off beet roots; rub off skins. Cut in half. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
Combine vinegar, sugar, shallots, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon garlic, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1/2 teaspoon tarragon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and oregano in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add vinegar mixture and onion to beet mixture; toss gently.

Don't turn left on to Arden Avenue from Woodrow Road in Staten Island.
At least, that was the directive from a new sign on the corner. An NYPD officer chose the intersection for enforcement and wrote tickets to drivers in November.
But, as the NYC Department of Transportation confirmed to PIX11 News, that sign was unauthorized.
Drivers contacted Councilmember Joe Borelli who asked NYC DOT and NYPD to check on the sign. It was removed and Councilmember Borelli documented it on his Facebook page.
Drivers say they will use a letter from the city to prove there was no traffic infraction at the corner. But one driver tells PIX11 News he was found guilty of the charge in court and paid the $125 ticket.
You can appeal rulings from traffic court within 30 days with the New York Department of Motor Vehicles and the information is available here. Drivers are also allowed to present a case and evidence.
A media representative for that department told PIX11 News the judge on at least one of the cases was not available for comment.

Afghan Buddha destruction revealed
Photographs from Afghanistan have confirmed that the country's third largest giant Buddha statue has been reduced to rubble on the orders of the country's Taleban government.
The 16-metre long reclining Buddha at the temple in Tape-Sardar in Ghazni province was reportedly destroyed last week alongside another famous statue depicting Buddha with his foot on a calf.
The fundamentalist Taleban authorities had ruled that the statues were anti-Islamic.
In a separate move, the Taleban ordered the slaughter of 100 cows to atone for what it called the "delay" in destroying the statues.
Reporter expelled
The Taleban's Voice of Shariat radio said its supreme leader, Mullah Mohammad Omar, had ordered the slaughter of 12 cows in Kabul and at least three each in 29 other Taleban-controlled provincial capitals.
The Ghazni statues had survived the rampages of the 11th Century Ghazna emperor, Sultan Mahmood Ghaznawi, who destroyed numerous Indian temples and referred to himself as an idol breaker.
Despite repeated international appeals to save Afghanistan's heritage, on Wednesday the Taleban confirmed that the Bamiyan Buddhas had been completely levelled.
On Thursday, BBC correspondent Kate Clark arrived in Pakistan after being expelled from Afghanistan for broadcasting what the Taleban described as "biased" reports of the Bamiyan statues destruction.
Clark said she believed the main reason for her expulsion was her filing of a report in which she said most Afghans opposed the statues' demolition.

A prolific and hardworking session man as rock evolved from R&B during the 1950s, Baker played with such legendary acts as Ray Charles, Louis Jordan and Ruth Brown. His guitar work helped drive such R&B chart-toppers as Brown's "(Mama) He Treats Your Daughter Mean" and Big Joe Turner's "Shake Rattle and Roll." The Who's Pete Townshend studied his methods, and Rolling Stone's David Fricke ranked Baker No. 53 on his list of the 100 greatest guitarists of all time.We have his revered jazz guitar method books:

During the first week, part of our training was the afternoon visit to the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA), with the purpose, among others, of understanding better the difference mediation and arbitration.
As indicated in the pertinent memo, from the Clingendael we would take Bus 18 of the public transport to go to The Hague Central (Den Hag Centraal), and from there we would take Bus 22 to go to the PCA. We were accompanied by two interns, Maxim and Melanie, who would serve as guides.
While we were still walking toward the Clingendael bus station along with our two guides, Damien mounted the bus which left us all! (Public bus leaves and arrives at every station at a particular time, and the driver never reopens the door once closed for departure from one station to another.)
Naturally, Maxim and Melanie were very much worried, thinking that Damien would get lost in The Hague Central, or worse still, in his way to the PCA. Since Day 1 – Orientation Day – Maxim's favorite maxim he would share to us is this: "If you have difficult question, ask Sharon!" Sharon, by the way, is the training's overall facilitator who had been in contact with us from the very beginning.
Under this situation wherein one of the trainees potentially gets lost in the urban jungle of The Hague during a chilling winter afternoon, Maxim had no option but to dexterously follow his own maxim. He immediately grabbed his mobile and phoned Sharon: "Hello, Sharon! Damien mounted the bus which left us. He is now alone in The Hague Central. Do you have his number? How about his Facebook account? Is there any other way to contact him?"
Trying to assure Maxim, Sofhie whom we fondly call "Mama Clingendael" or "Mama Cling" for short, said, "Don't worry, Damien is adult enough to know his options. Either he would immediate alight at the next bus stop and wait for us, or get back to Arendsdorp and relax." (Arendsorp Complex is our momentary detention center whose de facto warden, Mr. George, is responsible for initiating its infamous two-level sensor-operated door.)
Worried and making the wildest speculations on what would happen to Damien, we all mounted the next bus.
As the bus reached the next station, we were all happy to see Damien, shivering notwithstanding his thick winter garment, just waiting in the said station.
"Look, Damien is here!" we all exclaimed.
In spite of the gloomy winter, Maxim's face brightened once again. So was Damien's.
Inside the bus on our way to The Hague Central, I noticed Melanie memorizing our names, making many rehearsals therein. Since then, she has been able to memorize the names of all of us 20. I'm sure, the name "Damien" was the first registered in her mind and could not be erased even by the strong wicked storm that swept the whole Netherlands and some neighboring countries the following day.
Since then, everytime we would take Bus 18 as a group, we would simultaneously ask, "Is Damien around?"
This is one reason why we named our group "Bus 18 Batch".
1. To be the first is not always good.
2. Always remember that the Bus has specific time to leave and arrive at a given station.
3. While serving as tour guide to a group, never allow anyone to go ahead or be left behind without your explicit consent.

I didn't realize it was still a thing…
Many of you may have forgotten, but Nintendo actually launched its Wii U console in two flavors originally- the 32GB 'Deluxe' set that is pretty much standard now, and the 8GB 'Basic' set, which was $50 cheaper, didn't come with Nintendo Land, or a subscription to Nintendo Network Premium, and included a white console instead of the black one.
Over the last few years, the 32GB Deluxe console has increasingly grown to become the de facto default Wii U console on sale everywhere- I suppose the 8GB Basic one was never technically discontinued, but it's almost impossible to find. However, that changes soon, at least in Japan- Nintendo has confirmed that it will be discontinuing the SKU in the country entirely. However, if Japanese gamers still want a white Wii U, they are in luck, because white Wii U Deluxe systems will soon be available instead.
Nintendo also confirmed to VideoGamer that it plans to continue to sell the Basic set in the rest of the world for now, so I guess if you're in a pinch, looking to save $50, but really want a Wii U, you still have the option.

|London, 1808. General Collection, Beinecke Rare Book and
Manuscript Library, Yale University.
Donald A. Yerxa: What are you attempting to do in The Church in the Long Eighteenth Century?
David Hempton: This is a general history of worldwide Christianity in the so-called long 18th century (roughly 1680 to 1820). I adopt a consciously global perspective on the identity and manifestations of the church and try to move beyond emphases and topics that are rooted mainly in Europe. In a sense I have written two books for the price of one. Book one seeks to "map" world Christianity in all its manifest diversity—Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, and multiple indigenous varieties. I also try to address the thorny problem of missionary motivation in the early modern period before choosing sites of "encounter" between European Christians and the wider world in North and Latin America, the Caribbean Islands, India, China, and Africa. Book two deals with more conventional themes such as the Enlightenment, the evangelical revival, the rise of religious toleration and antislavery sentiment, the French and American Revolutions, secularization, and much else besides. Even here, I try to offer some fresh interpretations of some much-studied episodes in the history of Christianity.
Yerxa: What are some of the topics that come to the fore in your survey of global Christianity that would not be particularly present in a study of European and/or North American Christianity?
Hempton: One way to answer that question would be to look at how the field of ecclesiastical or church history has changed since, for example, the volumes of the Pelican History of the Christian Church first appeared in the 1960s. The Pelican series has stood the test of time for half a century, but obviously much has changed since then. For example, Gerald Cragg's excellent volume, The Church in the Age of Reason, 1648-1789 (1960), deals mostly with the ecclesiastical history of Western Europe, and especially the intellectual challenges posed by the Enlightenment. Since then, shifts in intellectual culture associated with postcolonialism, postmodernism, and feminism and changes in historical methods ushered in by the growth of social, cultural, and global history have transformed the way we think about early modern religion. In particular, religious encounters between European Christians and native peoples throughout the world can be interpreted no longer merely through the eyes of Europeans. Hence, I deal with complex manifestations of Christianity among indigenous people, slave cultures, and other civilizations. . . . read more at Project Muse>>>

Ahead of the event that's scheduled, the company has announced its new 'UH OH' customer protection program, which will be available to US customers who purchase the new HTC One M9 or a new HTC One M8 after April 10, 2015.
The program makes owners of a new HTC flagship eligible for one free replacement within the first year in the case of a cracked screen, water damage, or carrier switching. Additionally, customers who don't pick up 'UH OH' within the first 12 months will receive $100 towards the purchase of a future HTC One smartphones.
HTC 'UH OH' Protection provides consumers who damage their new HTC One M9 with an untimely fall onto the pavement or into a toilet with a free phone replacement within 12 months of purchase. Consumers who don't opt for 'UH OH' Protection with their M8 or M9 within the first 12 months of buying the device will receive a $100 credit towards the purchase of a future HTC One smartphone.
According to HTC America president Jason Mackenzie, "While other smartphone companies look at uh-oh moments as a way to profit off of you, we are focused on adding value to owning an HTC One."
How do I use HTC's Uh-Oh protection
In that unfortunate moment you damage your brand new smartphone, you can call can call HTC Care at 1 (866) 449-8358, and an HTC Care team member will arrange a replacement phone shipped out to you overnight. If you backed up your smartphone before the accident, you'll be able to restore its contents from the cloud via HTC Backup.
However it is important to keep in mind that there will be limiations to the replacement, so it is important to read the the service's terms and conditions beforehand. For example, you won't be applicable for replacement if the device's IMEI number has been made illegible, if you modified your phone (likely includes rooting your device), or you handled your smartphone recklessly.

Author Melissa Landers is so excited to launch STARFALL, the second and final book in the Starflight duology! This story picks up shortly after the first book ends, but now Cassia and Kane are the main characters, with Doran, Solara, and the rest of the Banshee crew pitching in to help take down an intergalactic mafia. (You know, just an ordinary day in space.) And while saying goodbye to characters is never easy, we think she gave the crew a proper sendoff with plenty of humor, heart, and action. She hopes you love STARFALL as much as we do!
Haven't read the first book? You're in luck, because for a limited time, Starflight is on sale for 99 cents in all e-formats. Now you can binge read the entire duology in one sitting!
Meanwhile, Kane and the rest of the crew of the Banshee plan a desperate rescue mission. But when they arrive on Eturia, Cassia isn't exactly in need of heroics—she's claimed her birthright as Eturia's queen, but has inherited a war-torn planet simmering with rebellion. Cassia must make alliances, and Kane, the bastard son of a merchant, isn't a choice that will earn her any friends. Kane knows he will never find someone to replace Cassia—and is certain she returns his feelings—but how can he throw away his own promising future waiting on a queen?
When the outer realm is threatened by the dangerous Zhang mafia, Cassia, Kane and the rest of the Banshee crew uncover a horrifying conspiracy that endangers the entire universe. In the face of unspeakable evil, Cassia must confront her own family's complicated legacy on Eturia and decide once and for all who her real family is.
Check out book one! Its on SALE!

Corzine's firm admits to using clients' money, fed says
WASHINGTON -- MF Global, the securities firm led by former New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine, admitted using clients' money as its financial troubles mounted, a federal official says.
An MF Global executive admitted that to federal regulators in a call early Monday, after regulators raised questions about the company's books, according to an official familiar with the conversation.
It is not clear where the money ended up or what it might have been used for, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to discuss an investigation by federal regulators.
Government rules require securities firms to keep clients' money and company money in separate accounts. Violations can result in civil penalties.
MF Global filed for bankruptcy protection Monday, after a big bet on European debt threatened to topple it.
The investigation of MF Global Holdings Ltd. is preliminary. A formal investigation by the company's main regulator, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, requires a vote by its five commissioners.
It isn't clear whether the violations could lead to criminal charges. At a news conference, Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara would not comment on whether a criminal investigation is under way involving MF Global.
Earlier Tuesday, the head of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange said that MF Global had violated rules requiring it to keep clients' money in separate accounts.
Craig Donohue, CEO of CME Group Inc., which operates exchanges where derivatives are traded, said MF Global was "not in compliance" with requirements set by CME and the CFTC.

Newport Jazz Festival: Jamie Cullum at the Newport Jazz Festival article
Jamie Cullum, who has played guitar and piano since age eight, developed an avid interest in jazz from his older brother. He was inspired by piano icons Oscar Peterson and Dave Brubeck and spent some of his formative years living in Paris, where he honed his abilities performing in jazz clubs. Cullum will perform selections from The Pursuit, his first album in four years, as well as some of his favorite jazz standards and his own originals. His latest music embraces the full range of his diverse talents and far-flung musical passions. While it covers more stylistic ground than anything he's done previously, the album offers the same musical fluency, emotional commitment and lyrical wit that helped to make Cullum's prior releases Twentysomething and Catching Tales international crossover hits selling more than four million combined copies worldwide. He recorded his first album, Heard It All Before, at age 19, followed by Pointless Nostalgic.
After spending two years touring in support of Catching Tales, Cullum retreated from the spotlight and spent much of the next two years working on a variety of musical and non-musical endeavors. He and his older brother and frequent collaborator, Ben, joined forces for a dance music project, "BC vs. JC," that found the brothers creating melodic dance music in clubs across England. Jamie also contributed to albums for Pharrell Williams, the Count Basie Orchestra, Japan's Soil & Pimp Sessions, Norway's Beady Belle and France's Camille, as well as spent time as a Goodwill Ambassador to Ethiopia for UNICEF. Cullum's highest profile side projects saluted his courtship with Hollywood, beginning with the animated Disney feature Meet The Robinsons, in which Jamie was the singing voice of Frankie The Frog. He followed with his vocal on the Golden Globe-nominated "Best Original Song" from the John Cusack film Grace Is Gone, and culminated in his co-writing and performing with Clint Eastwood for the Golden Globe-nominated "Best Original Song" from 2008's Gran Torino. Now, he's back on the road celebrating The Pursuit at concert across Europe and the United States.
Eighteen-year-old Grace Kelly's career is definitely on the fast track. Wynton Marsalis (who performs on the Fort Adams Stage on Sunday) was so impressed with her three-night stand as guest of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra in November 2008 that he invited her to join the ensemble at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. Harry Connick, Jr. heard her in a master class and invited her to sit in with his band and she has been a featured guest on NPR's Piano Jazz with Marian McPartland. In addition, Grace has received numerous honors including The Boston Music Awards' "Outstanding Jazz Act," WCVB-TV's "Five Bostonians to Watch," Downbeat Critics Poll's youngest ever "Alto Saxophone Rising Stars," the Boston Phoenix's "Best Jazz Act in Boston" in the 2009 Best Music Poll (for the second consecutive year) and three ASCAP Young Jazz Composers Award. To this astonishing list of credits, Kelly adds Mood Changes, the fifth release on her PAZZ label. The album mixes six standards with four Kelly originals. She is particularly excited about the strides that Mood Changes reveals in her band leading skills. "There's nothing like playing my own music with my own band," she acknowledges. She also enjoyed critically acclaimed success on her previous album, Gracefulee, which has dominated the DownBeat Student Awards over the past four years. A student at Boston's Berklee College of Music, Grace enjoys "… playing all the time and just living music all day." Her College is also represented at the festival by the Berklee Global Jazz Institute Septet on Saturday afternoon.
George Wein made history 56 years ago when he started the festival era with the Newport Jazz Festival. Along with his company, New Festival Productions, LLC, Wein continues to present the best in established and rising stars, this year including Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea Freedom Band with Kenny Garrett, Christian McBride & Roy Haynes, Ahmad Jamal, Wynton Marsalis, Maria Schneider Orchestra, Chris Botti, Jason Moran's Bandwagon, Jon Faddis Quartet, Gretchen Parlato, Fly, Julian Lage Group, JD Allen Trio, David Binney Third Occasion Quartet, Darcy James Argue's Secret Society and many more

The restoration and augmentation of the bells at All Saints Roos in 2012 was the result of a wonderful effort involving the B & D, ringers from across Yorkshire and beyond, and the local community.
The bells are well loved within Roos. We have an established Sunday service band but are keen to ensure that we make provision for the future. Thanks to the ITTS scheme, our teaching of young learners is proving to be very successful. We now have a queue of under 12s waiting for us on Tuesday nights wanting to get the bells up! The Church has strong links with Roos C of E Primary School and so it seemed right that the children should be a part of our decision to augment to eight. Years 5 & 6 enjoyed a fabulous afternoon at Taylors Bell Foundry in Loughborough on June 26th. They got to hit bells with mallets, carried a bronze ingot and thanks to James Blackburn and Bill Purvis , watched a demonstration of the Carter Ringing Machine. All of the children came up the tower, where our young ringers were able to demonstrate their skills to their classmates.
The afternoon culminated in watching the two new trebles for Roos being cast. Coverage by Radio Humberside earlier in the day added to the excitement, and the children were fully aware they were witnessing history in the making.
The trip was made possible by financial support from The Archbishop of Yorks Mission Fund and the Ann Watson Trust. Whites of Appleton Ltd will be installing the new bells at the end of September.
The service of dedication conducted by Revd Giles Galley will be on Saturday, November 1st, to which all members are warmly invited.
Albert Lowery of Hedon was recently made an honorary life member of the B & D. His fellow ringers at Hedon are proud and delighted for him. Those present at the meeting at Market Weighton will have heard Keith Everingham describe the faithful service Albert has performed ever since learning to ring in 1966.
Not only that, he has made boxes and notice boards for other local towers. We at Roos have benefitted from his skill and generosity. Visitors to Hedon should note that Albert has painstakingly re cemented every step up the tower that is why they are so level.
Albert decided that he wanted to mark his Life Membership by ringing a quarter peal on a working bell. He has done this just once before at Hessle in 2003. The band was carefully chosen and Albert duly rang the treble to a quarter of bob doubles on the back six at Hedon his home tower.
This achievement at the age of 81 was celebrated with a glass of wine at the foot of the tower.
Congratulations Albert and Well Done.
A Service of Thanksgiving for the Restoration of the Bells And the Dedication of the New Treble Bell
Conducted by the Most Revd and Rt Hon the Archbishop of York
Dr John Sentamu
September 23rd 2012
The visit of the Archbishop of York Dr. John Sentamu to conduct our service of dedication and thanksgiving was a wonderful end to our project. The service was well attended by members of the community and ringers from the B & D and the Yorkshire Association. Readings were given by Rev Giles Galley (Psalm 150) and churchwarden John McWilliams (Philippians 4 v3-7). Helen Audley read the poem Sabbath Bells by John Clare. Children from Roos Primary school sang Jesus Love is Very Wonderful.
The Archbishop was on good form and gave an amusing address around the subject of Psalm 150. He said that the Roos PCC cannot plead poverty anymore because he now knows we can raise lots of money when we have to!
Brian White from Whites of Appleton officially handed the bells over to the churchwardens who asked the Archbishop to bless them. This he did with a great flourish and made a very good job of chiming the new treble. Helen Audley then rang the treble up and members of the Roos Sunday Service Band rang some rounds and call changes on the 6.
John Atkinson, James Blackburn and Roddy Horton then rang a course of Bob Minor on handbells which captivated everyone present.
The service concluded with some fine well struck ringing from Barrie Dove, Mike Robson, John Atkinson, Andrew Bicknell, James Blackburn and Gary Audley.
We then adjourned to the Roos Memorial Institute for a massive afternoon tea prepared by church members, Roos WI and Alan Lavender. Peter Cook had another bell cake made similar to the one at the recent B & D meeting at Withernsea. Even the Archbishop took photos of this with his mobile phone!
Andrew Bicknell and James Blackburn received a vote of thanks and gifts from the Roos PCC and ringers for all their hard work.
Peter Cook presented Helen Audley with a bouquet, card and letter saying that a commemorative tree is to be planted in the churchyard later in the year.
Highlights from the proceedings were broadcast on BBC Look North later that evening and the event has been well covered by the local media. It was a truly memorable occasion.
On June 25th, Graham Clifton form Whites of Appleton arrived in a heavily laden truck containing the steel girders, the new frame, all our wheels, the 3rd of the 6 to be hung in the new frame .and OUR NEW TREBLE!
The aforementioned truck then got horribly stuck in the mud in the churchyard, so we unloaded everything apart from the bells, but the truck still had to be towed out. Graham, ably assisted by James Blackburn and Andrew Bicknell masterminded the operation up in the bell room. Gary Audley was also up there with his thumb on the button of the electric hoist. Further down was Peter Cook and the rest of the Roos team were on the ground floor. Mention should be made of PCC member Brian Rannard who came on Monday morning to simply to video us unloading the truck and ended up spending three days working really hard.
The Lavender/McWilliams catering corps rose magnificently to the occasion. Roos bell workers never go hungry! Monday evening, the entire team plus partners celebrated bell day with a meal and a few beers at the Hare and Hounds in Burstwick. Watching our new bell being raised up the tower on Tuesday was a momentous occasion. Roos is now a 6 bell tower! We are not finished yet as the new girders had to be concreted in. Whites will be back on July19th/20th to finish off.

Albert Lowery, a loyal and long serving member of the band at St Augustine's, Hedon recently celebrated his 80th birthday.
Albert is a stalwart Sunday Service ringer and readily gives of his time to ring for weddings and to help out at other local towers when needed. He is always on hand to welcome visiting ringers and takes great pride in showing learners and other interested parties up the tower to see the bells. He served for many years as Church Warden and still assists the Church in many paractical ways with quiet good humour.
True to form Albert didn't mention his Big Birthday, but a surprise get together was held at Hedon church and was well attended by his ringing friends and fellow church members.
A quarter peal was rung at Patrington to mark the occasion.
(HA, RW p499)
On Sunday April 15th the Roos Sunday Service band rang the 5 for the last time. Following the morning service which consisted of some very fast hymns played by the 3rd reserve scraping the barrel organist (Helen), and an obligingly short sermon from our priest, the dismantling began. Andrew Bicknell and James Blackburn systematically removed the ropes, stays, wheels, clappers, and pulley blocks assisted by the Roos Ringers and aided and abetted by the Lavender/McWilliams Catering Corp.
The following morning, Graham Clifton from Whites of Appleton arrived. Gary was promoted to being a top of the tower assistant under the instruction of Andrew and Graham. Peter was also on hand. A long day was spent taking off the headstocks from four of the bells and lowering the 2nd. The remains of the old crown staples were removed from the 3rd and 4th. All the fittings have been taken away for refurbishment.
It took Graham half a day to clean all the grease from his tools when he got back to Appleton. Meanwhile, Helen and Gill spent a horrible few hours scraping solid lumps of black grease from the bell frame and off the floor, ahead of the builders arrival.
Kemps of Skirlaugh have cut four pockets in the tower walls and constructed padstones to support the new girders. The next stage is to get the frame cleaned and painted.
The Roos Ringers and PCC are indebted to Andrew Bicknell and James Blackburn who have been brilliant.
Additionally I would personally like to thank the Roos team: Gary Audley, Peter Cook, Gill Dickinson, Diane and Alan Lavender, John and Sue McWilliams, all of whom have worked so hard and given so much.

The new treble for All Saints Roos which was cast in November is now finished and ready to leave the Loughborough foundry. Photo kindly provided by J. Taylor & Co.
Whites of Appleton Ltd will be installing it later in the year, assisted by a team of volunteers led by Andrew Bicknell and James Blackburn.
The Roos ringers are very grateful for all the help and support we are receiving.
The Roos bell was cast at Taylors foundry on November 17th. The inscription will read This bell was presented by the Beverley and District Ringing Society 2011.
A group of us from Roos and the B & D had a wonderful afternoon at Loughborough enjoying a tour of the museum and foundry before witnessing the casting. Knowing it was our bell made it very special.
We held a final major fund raising event in Roos on November 25th. Roos ringer Diane Lavenders husband Alan who has recently retired after working for 25 years as head chef at Chequers generously staged An Evening with Alan Lavender. Roos village hall was packed to bursting point for the occasion and we were treated to a very entertaining evening of cookery demonstrations interspersed with stories of his working life. Delicious food was served and a good time was had by all.
The raffle for the watercolour of Roos church was drawn and won by Pat Hardy of Roos. B & D member Gail Horton was the lucky winner of an Alan Lavender Christmas pudding. There were other lesser prizes. Including the raffle and sales of prints, the evening raised nearly £1400. Thank you to everyone who bought tickets.
So in almost exactly one year, nearly £47,000 has been raised. The B & D should feel very proud because this would not have happened without the BRF and the support and encouragement of so many members. Thank you from all of us at Roos.
Now for stage 2! Whites of Appleton start work on April 16th. If you are ready/willing and able to assist the bell hanger in dismantling the bells, or would be prepared to help with cleaning and painting the frame, or could assist in the reassembly which we anticipate will be in early June we would be delighted if you would get in touch.

The London 12-bell competition has only run for 3 years and this year was hosted by the Society of Royal Cumberland Youths at Shoreditch on Saturday 22nd October 2011.
3 past masters of the BnD live and work in London and although all three of them are Cumberlands, they were in fact ringing for the Cornhill band which won the competition with a score of 79%, beating the hosts on 73.7% and the College Youths on 73.3%. The competition web page can be found here london12bellcompetition.org
It is a credit to the BnD that a quarter of the winning team is made up of past masters and the photo shows Roddy and Ian enjoying one of several beers after the competition with David being abstemious as he had work to do.
Well done the BnD!
Following the successful exhibition at the Treasure House in Beverley the following article appeared in the Ringing World, penned by our PRO Roasina Baxter.
At a Beverley & District Ringing Society Committee Meeting towards the end of 2009, one of the agenda items was presentation of the B&D. Little did we know then what the ensuing discussion on promoting ringing and the work of the Society in East Yorkshire would lead to! One of our members was then working for the East Yorkshire Museums Service and mentioned that the Treasure House in Beverley had exhibition space which might be available for our use.
The Treasure House is owned by the East Riding of Yorkshire Council and is home to the Museums, Archives and Local Studies Services, Beverley Art Gallery and Beverley Library. The treasures of the East Riding are presented through local history and art exhibitions.
After a telephone call and several meetings with the wonderful Beverley Curator, the Society put on a poster exhibition in the archive corridor of the Treasure House. This was entitled Bells & Bellringing in East Yorkshire and consisted of six A1 panels written and illustrated by Society members and prepared and printed by Treasure House staff. These were on display in May & June 2010. After the exhibition ended the Society was given the panels, which have been displayed at several church and tower open days in the area and are available for B&D Society members to borrow.
The exhibition was very well received and we were invited to put on a larger display in Gallery Two - an exhibition space on the first floor of the Treasure House alongside the café and leading to the art gallery. The exhibition area is 26 linear metres of hanging space together with 3 large display cases a lot of space to fill.
The Beverley Town Handbell Ringers, celebrating their 30th anniversary in 2011, joined us and provided a lot of material and a set of shiny new handbells for the exhibition. I went round towers in the area and borrowed anything that wasnt nailed down a model bell, a peal board, a bell rope, a clapper (not in use at the time!), photographs, certificates, trophies and peal books.
The Bells Ring Out! exhibition opened in the Treasure House on 25 June 2011, which co-incided with the Church and Tower Open Day at St Marys, Beverley, and was available for viewing during the Treasure House opening hours, six days a week until 10 September. Publicity was arranged by the Treasure House who provided posters and flyers at their expense, put out a press release to local papers and arranged an interview with two of the St Marys ringers on local BBC radio the day before the exhibition opened.
The exhibition was very well received and, at our meeting in early July, the Societys Committee agreed to provide the funding to hire a mini-ring for a day to enable members of the public to see ringing being done and perhaps have a try themselves. After lots of questions from the powers that be, permission was obtained to site a mini-ring on the paved area in front of the Treasure House, and the Lichfield Diocesan Mobile Belfry was booked for 3rd September to coincide with drop-in handbell workshops being run by the Beverley Town Handbell Ringers in the Treasure House that day.
Saturday 3rd September started early for the writer who was at BBC Radio Humberside studios in Hull at 07.00 for a live interview about bellringing on the early morning programme at 07.18. It was an even earlier start for John Daubner, who towed the trailer carrying the mobile belfry to Beverley, arriving at the Treasure House before 08.00 and then assembled the belfry, assisted by a team of local ringers, of varying ages and technical abilities. By about 10.45 all was in place and the bells were ready to be rung. They proved challenging to handle at first because of their light weight but, after a bit of practice, most of the ringers got the hang of them and we went on to ring some good touches of Surprise Minor, Stedman and Original as well as Plain Bob, Grandsire and lots of Rounds and Call Changes.
Society members came and went during the day, many of them fitting ringing on the mobile belfry around wedding ringing at their own towers. There was ringing for one wedding at Beverly St Mary and two weddings at Beverley Minster that day, so members of the public had the chance to hear church bells being rung as well as to see and hear the bells of the mobile belfry,. It was quite an experience for some of the ringers to go from rings of ten with 34cwt or 42cwt tenors to a ring of six with a 76.5lb tenor! The bells were rung until just before 4 oclock in the afternoon, when the Treasure House closed, attracting a steady stream of visitors during the day. The belfry took much less time to dismantle than it did to assemble and all those involved then went home or in search of liquid refreshment feeling it had been a very worthwhile (but tiring!) day.
After the end of the exhibition at the Treasure House, the Museums Service is taking the panels on tour, to be exhibited at various places such as stately homes and churches in East Yorkshire. Following that, they will be available for the Society to use. The exhibition and associated activities have certainly raised the profile of bellringing in the East Yorkshire area. The support we received from the Treasure House staff, in particular the Beverley Curator, Alison Brice, was fantastic. If other societies are looking to put on exhibitions to promote bellringing, we recommend contacting your local library and museums service to see what they can offer.
The Roos ringers would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who sponsored us for our 25 mile walk on July 9th. The amount raised including the sum we can claim through the gift aid scheme looks set to be approaching £2000 which is incredible.
It was a great team effort by B & D members who have been so generous with their time. Sarah Dawson organised the walk (The High Hunsley Circuit). Practical support on the day was given by Ann Hughes, James Blackburn, Sue McWilliams and her husband John. We couldnt have done it without their supplies of delicious food and cups of tea delivered with unfailing cheerfulness and lots of encouragement.
The walkers L to R Gary Audley, Gill Dickinson, Diane Lavender, Sarah Dawson, John Atkinson, Nick Soanes.

Crucial Game 5 goes tonight in Halifax
With their first round President Cup Playoff Series tied 2-2, the Halifax Mooseheads and Rouyn-Noranda Huskies are set to do battle one more time at Scotiabank Centre tonight at 7:00pm before shifting to western Quebec for the remainder of the series.
The upstart Mooseheads have defied the odds by fighting back to even the series against the heavily favoured Huskies. Halifax is the first team to get at least two wins against a number two seed since the current playoff format was introduced by the QMJHL in 2010-11.
Rookie goalie Alex Gravel has been a thorn in the side for Rouyn-Noranda who have managed to beat him only nine times on 169 shots. Four of those goals have come from defencemen. For a team that was used to scoring at a rate of four goals a game during the regular season they have appeared frustrated by the play of the rookie. Gravel leads the league during the postseason with a .947 save percentage. He has earned a star in all four games during the series.
It's unclear who Huskies Head Coach Gilles Bouchard will go with between the pipes after Olivier Tremblay was pulled in Game 4 for allowing three goals on 14 shots. Samuel Harvey let in five goals in the series opener and hasn't made a start since.
Rouyn-Noranda will get the services of veteran Lane Cormier back tonight after he served a three-game suspension for a high hit on Jared McIsaac in Game 1. Forwards Martins Dzierkals and Manny Wiederer will both be out with one-game suspensions this evening for a hits on Arnaud Durandeau and McIsaac.
Walter Flower will remain out with an injury for Halifax while it's unknown whether Connor Moynihan and Jared McIsaac will be healthy enough to play.
Tickets are on sale now at the Ticket Atlantic Box Office at Scotiabank Centre, Mooseheads Official Shop in Scotia Square Mall, select Superstore Outlets, TicketAtlantic.com or by phone at 902-451-1221. Service charges apply.

30 in 31: day 24: a day for Dino
Dean Martin died twenty years ago today, Christmas, 1995.
I love a zillion of his songs, from every decade and style in which he sang. So first up, here are three of a kind...and if you've never heard the third one, do give it a listen.
Next, a straight of Dean Martin quotations. An important thing to remember is that a lot of the jokes attributed to these guys came first from Joe E. Lewis and also Joey Bishop. They stole from each other like mad, and made a joke of that, too. So I picked some that only he said.
"When Frank Sinatra dies, they're giving his zipper to the Smithsonian."
"Motivation is a lot of crap."
"I once shook hands with Pat Boone and my whole right side sobered up."
"You wanna hear it straight, buy the album."
"Shirley (MacLaine) I love her, but her oars aren't touching the water these days."
Finally, a full house with two videos and three photos.
Here's a low quality but watchable video of the Dean Martin Christmas Show featuring the Sinatra family. It's worth looking at if you're interested in them. And yes, the truth is, Sinatra drank a whole lot, while with Martin it was mainly an act. Dean liked to go to bed early and hit the golf course in the morning when Frank was probably just hitting the sack.
And here's the Dean Martin Celebrity Roast of Dean Martin. It's a gasser.
