Get it done. Feel good about it.
ReStore's Free Pick-Up Service is the Easiest Way to Get Rid of Your Large Unwanted Items.
What's more exciting than making your home your own with new furnishings or upgrades? Knowing you can give new life to no-longer-wanted items when they're ready to find a new home! That's where Lexington Habitat for Humanity ReStore comes in.
Donating to ReStore is easy, and you'll feel good when it's done. Why? You'll have kept reusable materials out of landfills and taken care of neighbors in need, since every ReStore donation helps Lexington Habitat for Humanity meet the need for affordable housing in Lexington.
If an item will fit in your vehicle, please bring it to our Lexington store at 451 Southland Drive. (You can do a little shopping while you're here!) If it's a larger item, we'll be happy to come get it. We offer free large item pick-up services in Lexington, Nicholasville and Versailles. Our experienced and friendly staff will collect your donation efficiently and safely without damaging your property.
To take advantage of ReStore's pick-up service for larger items,
follow these steps:
Before scheduling your free large item pick-up online, check the following to ensure a safe and efficient process:
- Review our accepted items: While we'd love to take anything you want to donate, there are a few items (like mattresses and commercial doors) we're unable to accept because they can be dangerous for our volunteers.
- Snap a photo: A picture of your item will help us plan for your pick-up. It's best to measure your item too; that's not needed for every donation, but we may need dimensions of large or unusually-sized items to ensure adequate space in our ReStore truck.
Now, schedule your pick-up online! Free pick-up services are offered Monday through Saturday, 9 am–noon and 1–4 pm.
We'll also need to know some basic details about the home or business from which the item will be removed. Our online form only takes a few minutes to complete, and it expedites pick-ups and helps keep you and our volunteers safe.
We'll review your request to be sure your item fits our donation requirements. Then we'll send you an estimated date and time frame for your pick-up, and you'll receive a detailed confirmation email.
On pick-up day, our Donation Ambassadors will call you when they're on their way. Our truck is clearly marked with the ReStore logo, so when we pull up, you'll know it's us.
When we arrive, make sure there's a clear, accessible path to the item and that, if it's an electrical appliance, it's unplugged.
Then it's time to say goodbye. Go ahead and hug that bureau if you want to. Give that chair a little smooch; we don't mind. After all, it's taken good care of you…and now it's off to its new life with a delighted ReStore shopper!
For more information on scheduling a large item pick-up, call us at (859) 252-2224 x100 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you for your support of Lexington Habitat for Humanity!

Epidural Hematoma
Last Updated: October 1, 2018
An epidural hematoma (EDH) is one of the most widely known and definitively treatable of all neurologic conditions. In almost all cases, an EDH is caused by blunt trauma leading to a skull fracture. This etiology owes its prevalence to two coinciding phenomena of human evolution. First, the pterion, where the frontal, temporal, sphenoid, and parietal bones meet, is the weakest area of the entire skull and the most likely region to fracture with a traumatic insult.
Second, the middle meningeal artery courses into the skull via the foramen spinosum and proceeds superiorly to the area of the pterion. Thus, the artery and its branches are at risk for direct insult whenever the pterion is fractured.

New Beginnings are one of only ten RoR Accredited Centres.
There are currently more than 10,000 horses registered with Retraining of Racehorses (RoR – British Horseracing's official charity for the welfare of former racehorses) as active in other equine disciplines outside of racing, including Polo, Showing, Dressage and Eventing, as well as those horses happily engaged in hacking and exercising.
The RoR runs and funds a well established programme of competitions and educational events across the country.
They provide information for owners and trainers in both the racing and equestrian industries to assist with the re-homing and re-training of their former racehorses and New Beginnings is part of this initiative.
Launched by the British Horseracing Board (now the British Horseracing Authority – BHA) in April 2000, RoR was awarded charitable status in Autumn 2000.

Dear Jack (can we call you Jack?),
Thanks so much for your unsupported musings article on the ridiculously wittily phrased 'anti-bloke bias' in academia. It is always rage-inducing refreshing to see a bloke mansplain explain privilege to wimmin.
Let's start with the opening, Jack (can we call you Jack?)
To even ask the question risks raising the hackles of many who still see sexism as a huge problem faced by women in the academy…
Problematic canine metaphors aside (bitches, anyone?), consider our hackles raised, Jack.
Other, less woke, wimmin than ourselves might dismiss this opening claim, but once we saw the quality of your data, it gave us 'paws' for thought. We'd never thought about the silencing of men's voices in academia. Consider, for example, the one (that's right – one) 'bloke' that makes up your article's empirical foundation, pulled with little contextual explanation from a wider study that's actually looking at support for BME academics.
"Departments have some kind of fear of some men – that's why I have been held back," said the academic, quoted anonymously in the study.
This is groundbreaking investigative journalism, Jack (can we call you Jack?) – a much-needed and welcome corrective to the overwhelming evidence of established bias against women in academia (like, we don't know, maybe all the stuff on women's continuing under-representation in academic posts – especially women of colour, or journal citation bias, or gender bias in teaching evaluations – well-established patterns that you've actually written about).
As political scientists, we're always interested in new and exciting methodologies – so we've replicated your approach of acquiring a single data point by engaging one woman in a 'hushed conversation' in a corridor (we can't reveal any further information for ethical reasons, bound as we are to the standards of our field).
Turns out, we've all worked with that guy (or someone like him). We've seen with our own eyes former male colleagues fighting back against their own marginalization through brave acts of resistance – drawing penis pics on staff meeting agendas, groping or propositioning younger female colleagues (shout out to the woke dude who sent one of us a text from the audience at the PSA Conference last year while we were on a panel asking us for sex), or publicly expressing that women taking maternity leave were 'entitled' and unproductive. For those men that don't have the political capital to take a direct stand, more indirect forms of resistance are available to you – through who you cite, who you hire, who you promote, and who you give administrative responsibilities to.
Fight the power, dudes, fight the power.
Yours in privilege,
Meryl Kenny & Elizabeth Evans

Building GDPR compliance into your website build.
The full GDPR set of regulations are complex and cover a lot of different requirements that will affect most areas of your business. However most marketers don't need to know every aspect of GDPR, as their role simply doesn't have that wide a scope day to day. The guiding principles are vital for all marketers to understand however and they do need to know in detail how GDPR affects them and their role in a lot of detail. If you do need to understand all aspects of GDPR then we'd recommend starting with the Information Commissioners Office (ICO) itself and the Data Protection Network, a really great source of no nonsense independent advice on what it all means and just how to interpret the content on the official sites!
So it's no surprise that as a specialist web development agency for Drupal 8 our clients are asking us what GDPR means specifically in terms of planning, building and managing their website.
This is our quick guide to get you started:
Useful terminology
The controller is responsible for the lawful processing of data in a transparent way. This might be you, your agency, or any person or organisation responsible for deciding how data is collected, stored and used.
The processor is the organization that stores, manipulates or destroys the data. This is often a 3rd party so care must be taken that partners are also GDPR compliant.
The requirement (unless exempted) for companies to get consent for all data being captured. Consent should be at the point of capture and not coerced in anyway.
Legitimate Interest
An option for companies who don't have implicit consent where it is in the interest of the customer that their data is captured, processed and used.
Soft Opt-in
When there was no explicit consent but it is reasonable to expect that data is captured and processed. For example if you were to sell something online via ecommerce. However it only relates to specific use that relates to the purchase made.
3rd Party
An external entity that supplies, stores or manipulates data on your behalf.
Audit trail
The ability to clearly demonstrate where all data you hold was originated, how it has been used and what consents are attached to the data.
Privacy by design
A principle used by the ICO which states that privacy should be built in to all digital services from the beginning including vitally securing the data from "breaches".
Key decisions for GDPR and your website
Are you B2B or B2C?
This is a very important distinction when it comes to GDPR as the scope of legitimate interest widens considerably for B2B companies. For example Clause 47 of the GDPR legislation clearly states, "The processing of personal data for direct marketing purposes may be regarded as carried out for a legitimate interest." but remember that it has the important caveat that you also comply with other relevant laws (data protection, EPCR etc.)
How do you capture your data?
Consent, transparency and valid use are the three key factors here.
Firstly you must make sure that you get clear active consent (Customers make an active opt-in choice rather than the widely used opt-out). It must also be freely given and so it shouldn't be done in order to receive a service. If that is the case then you need to capture the data under another provision such as legitimate interest.
Secondly that you are transparent about why you are asking for the data. This should be at the point of capture and easy to find/read (i.e. not hidden in hard to find T&C's). If this isn't clear it invalidates the consent.
Finally you must have a valid use for the data. For example if you don't need to know when someone is born then you shouldn't be asking for that information.
There are exceptions to implicit consent that can apply in certain cases. For example, if you are capturing data to fulfil a legal requirement then, then as long as you say so, you don't need implicit consent to do so.
For more information see the ICO guidelines on consent.
How do you process your data?
Do you know what actually happens to data once you have captured it? Most marketers initially think they do but often they only have half the picture. Especially in larger organizations there are often background processes in place that copy, backup, append and share data into different systems with little or no audit trail. There was usually very good reasons for doing so like having a unified customer record or enabling cross-selling across different business areas.
This is not allowed under GDPR. You cannot assume that permission in one area of your business for one specific reason gives you a carte blanche to use that data across your organization.
There are too many ways data can be used or abused to outline them all here, but we would recommend to all our clients that you begin with a proper audit of all our data flows so you really understand how you process data. You might be surprised.
Where and how is your data stored?
Again there are some very significant requirements within GDPR which this article summarizes well. From our perspective we want to highlight one that is often overlooked when building websites - data security.
If you're capturing data, especially sensitive data then you have an obligation to make sure there can be no data breach. The ICO has already indicated that this is one area which it will be particularly robust on in terms of prosecuting bad practice. Why?
Because once data gets into the wild (offline) its value increases exponentially and the potential for harm increases. Criminals buy and trade data on the dark web and build complete profiles of individuals that they can then use for criminal activity.
It's therefore vital that when planning digital services that you bake in security from the get-go. From choosing the right technology (Its one of the reasons that Drupal is so widely adopted by the security conscious, including https://www.whitehouse.gov/, to making sure you have robust and frequent testing in place security should be front and centre.
You also need to plan for regular updates and patching as security is a moving target with new techniques and/or weaknesses arising all the time.
How do you manage your data?
Companies often take a capture then milk dry approach to data, often linked to spray and prey marketing techniques. Even companies following some aspects of best practice in terms of data usage fail when it comes to data management.
One key aspect of GDPR is that consent is time limited. Consent must expire. That means if you capture data you must have a valid use for that data AND that use must have a time limit. What that time limit is will vary depending on circumstance.
For example if you captured data around a sale event then when that sale ends your consent should end. On the other hand if you captured data around insuring a product for 24 months then you can probably argue that 24 months of consent is reasonable. However you approach it assuming unlimited consent is no longer an option.
Can customers easily access the data you hold on them?
One aspect of GDPR that's often overlooked is the right of customers to access, amend and delete any data held on them (with some exceptions where it's a requirement of the service your provide).
While this access has been available previously (Data protection, right to be forgotten etc.) awareness post GDPR is likely to be much higher and requests increase significantly. There are data activist groups who have publicly stated that they will be "testing" how companies comply.
Clearly you need to make sure this process is not a burden on your business and while there are many ways to manage this requirement we advise most of our clients to look at enabling self-service by creating online access to their "account". This has a lot of advantages over and above simply administrating data. For example it lays the building blocks for creating or expanding new digital services and business models. The best companies don't see GDPR as a limiter and instead see it as an opportunity to invest in technology that will in turn drive business growth.
Do you understand the rights of your customers?
It's valuable to reiterate that customer rights are at the heart of the GDPR legislation. According to GDPR all data should be:
- processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent way
- collected for a specified, explicit and legitimate purpose
- kept up to date
- limited to what is necessary
- not allow for the identification of an individual for longer than needed
- be stored and processed in a secure way
These golden rules match closely the principles listed above but they are important to list separately as these 6 points are what will be messaged to consumers post launch and what their expectations of you as a business will be.
Wider guiding principles to consider
There are three other principles that we think are key even if they are not explicit in the actual law.
- Direction of travel - The ICO has indicated that for most companies direction of travel is more important that 100% compliance come May 2018. This is not a ticket to complacency. You will need to have processes in place to properly capture, protect and allow access to your data going forward and you will need to have assigned roles such as a data controller for direction of travel to be a legitimate defence. Where the ICO seems to be indicating some time for full compliance is around historical data/partnerships/audit trails etc. which they understand can be complex.
- Being customer centric - Great companies and great marketers already understand that customers should be a the heart of any data strategy and that holding customer data is a privilege not a right. If you genuinely think about your customers first (who doesn't want to only share the data that's needed, wants to give permission before doing so, wants to know it's going to be used only for that purpose, will be stored with care and can be accessed when requested!)Be customer centric on all things data and you won't go far wrong in terms of compliance with GDPR. Your customers, your business and your profits will all thank you too.
- Future proofing - This is unlikely to be the last data/privacy legislation coming down the line. PECR we already know is being replaced by new ePrivacy regulations in the next 12 months and there will be updates as the operating environment changes. For this reason if no other its vital that companies take a proactive approach to data and see it as an opportunity to deliver world-class digital services and not as a quick win to drive sales volume from quarter to quarter.
We're very much from the camp of opportunity when it comes to GDPR. Smart companies make smart decisions with data and use it as a competitive advantage and don't see it as just another set of administrative tick boxes. Customers respond positively to transparency.

[CHICAGO] – Cook County State's Attorney Kimberly M. Foxx today hosted a roundtable with transgender advocates from Howard Brown Health and the Chicago House, a social service agency. Victims of anti-transgender violence are overwhelmingly women of color, according to GLAAD. The group discussed sexual assault, police accountability, and developing a more streamlined process to report hate crimes. A photo from the roundtable can be found here.
"We acknowledge that violence disproportionately affects this population, which makes them vulnerable," Foxx said. "Today we took an extra step to learn about specific challenges for transgender women of color and how my office can be helpful in improving their safety. I look forward to working together to address their concerns."
"We appreciate State's Attorney Foxx's proactive outreach to our community and desire to help," said Reyna Ortiz, TransSafe Coordinator for the Chicago House. "We were able to share our experiences with a law enforcement official in a safe environment at today's roundtable and that's something we don't take lightly."
"Violence not only perpetrated, but willfully dismissed by those in power based on gender expression, race, or any other identifying factor should be met with the utmost accountability," said Channyn Lynne Parker of Broadway Youth Center. "We as the Trans-Community of Chicago, stand grateful for the opportunity, to be heard by such a believing champion for our safety, Kim Foxx. We look forward to the continued investment in our community, for not only trans-people, but for all of Chicago."
Howard Brown Health exists to eliminate the disparities in healthcare experienced by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people through research, education and the provision of services that promote health and wellness.
Chicago House and Social Service agency serves individuals and families who are disenfranchised by HIV/AIDS, LGBTQ marginalization, poverty, homelessness, and/or gender nonconformity by providing housing, employment services, medical linkage and retention services, HIV prevention services, legal services and other supportive programs.

Rappel Error—Ropes Uneven, Rappel Off End of Rope, No Helmet, Colorado, Eldorado Canyon
Colorado, Eldorado State Park
Just Another Girl's Climb (5.12) on Lower Peanuts Wall begins on a ledge about fifty feet off the ground requiring a scramble for access. On September 6, a forty-two year old male experienced climber had lowered his partner who unsuccessfully attempted a lead on this route back down to the ledge. The victim then decided to scramble to the top of the route and rappel down. The victim ran his rope through the fixed anchor and successfully rappelled for the first forty to fifty feet until he rappelled off one end of the rope. The victim then fell about twenty to thirty feet down to the ledge where his partner was still positioned. The victim fell to the ledge and continued falling the additional fifty feet to the ground. The victim did not check to see if the ends were even nor did he tie knots in the ends of the rope prior to rappelling. He was not wearing a helmet. The victim suffered multiple abrasions and lacerations over his body as well as severe fractures to his shoulder and left leg.

(Editor's Note: Reports from Eldorado Canyon and a few other locations in Colorado were received for 1997 following publication of last year's ANAM. They have been put into the data. Among these incidents, of which there were eight, were two fatalities, one caused as a result of not wearing a helmet, and the other due to an ice climber not being anchored. Five of the incidents involved injuries that could have been prevented by wearing a helmet. One serious injury resulted when a belayer was using a figure of eight for a device in the same manner as it is used for a rappel. The friction was inadequate, and the rope passed through the device, causing the climber to drop to the ground. Another fall was the result of an experienced climber tying in only to the elastic pan of his harness. He survived a long fall, but suffered serious head injury and seizures.)

How does Fantasy Football, an afternoon in Vancouver; a place called the SteamWorks Brewery; my wife Jessica, a very handsome Dermot Mulroney look alike bartender; and a meaningless game between the Denver Broncos and Oakland Raiders turn out to be the best 3 hours of my life? I'll try to explain.
Most guys might be upset if their wife was sitting right next to them at a bar enjoying their beer tasters while drooling over a bartender that looked just like Dermot Mulroney. Well for the record I truly enjoyed it! And, not in a weird creepy way. First off, let me just say that the look alike winner was actually an extremely nice guy and someone I would be friends with. He did me a favor hitting on my wife because it allowed me to casually interact while really keeping my focus on Darren McFadden, who was on my fantasy team and torching the Denver Broncos defense! On an unrelated side note my Killer Bs did go on to win their 2nd Fantasy Football Championship….I'm just saying!
My wife and I escaped Los Angeles to Vancouver, Canada not really knowing what to expect. We had read the travel books and done some research but you never really know what its going to be like until you get there. What an absolutely charming place that we discovered, and if you have read previous blogs it's a place I would actually move to. The people are extremely friendly; I had forgotten what it was like to say hi to someone passing by on the street while living in Los Angeles. The air is clean and so is the ground, Vancouver offers such a unique vacation experience around every corner. You can go from night life, to trendy, to the great outdoors all with in about 15 minutes walk from each other. From Gastown, to China Town I absolutely love this city and I also found the beer is pretty damn good too. Make sure you go to the Granville Island Brewery which I will touch on in more detail at another time. This is all about the Steam Works Brewery.
Forget the fact Jessica was in love with the Bartender, he was so kind and friendly he helped us to have an amazing afternoon. He started off by setting us up with a tasters mat, and then proceeded to put 8 tasters down for us to enjoy. The best part about tasters is if your wife doesn't like one you get to have it for yourself! The Steam Works Brewery will offer you a very unique beer called the Espresso Stout made will real coffee. That beer is a must try, it's like nothing I have ever tasted before. You will also get to enjoy the Lions Gate Lager, Coal Porter, Signature Pale Ale, Empress India Pale Ale, Herocia Oatmeal Stout, Ipanema Summer White, and the Pumpkin Ale. All beers are hand crafted and brewed right there on the site. Next time you are in Vancouver and you've got a fantasy football player that you need to check on stop by the SteamWorks Brewery they will treat you right!
Steamworks Brewery, Vancouver
In Gastown, on our way to enjoy a beer!

Mosaic tiles are very versatile. They are frequently used as kitchen and bathroom back splashes but are also beautiful for decorative accents and even waterline tiles for swimming pools.
At Travertine Warehouse our mosaic tiles make the perfect accents for any room. Mosaic tiles usually come in 1×1, 2×2, or freestyle design and are on a 12×12 mesh for easy installation. This mesh backing makes mosaics a lot easier to be manipulated and cut for intricate designs or tight places. We carry a variety of travertine, marble and onyx mosaic tiles to fit any design.
For a more polished or formal look, an onyx mosaic tile can add just the right touch, and can be used almost anywhere especially alongside the polished marble tiles. Travertine mosaics with their tumbled finished look will definitely be ideal for a kitchen back splash, shower wall, or for tub surround with any finished flooring tile that you might choose. For example, they will give the room a nice contrast if you choose a filled honed finished travertine flooring. For a more rustic look for your brushed, chiseled travertine flooring, the tumbled finished mosaic will definitely enhance that old world look that you might be seeking.

Dateline: WATERLOO–A team of scientists and engineers at the Perimeter Institute in Waterloo, Ontario has invented a technique for converting American leaders' hypocrisy into fuel to power an interdimensional starship.
Thorsten Dillydally, leader of the team of researchers, was led to his hypothesis after sitting through press coverage of the Russian hacking of the Democratic National Committee's emails, which tilted the election towards a Trump victory of the presidency in 2016.
"I noticed something strange about the coverage," said Professor Dillydally. "The hypocrisy was off the charts. I mean literally, I pointed my chutzpah meter at the television and the meter blew up in my face. It dawned on me that effrontery of that magnitude was scarily powerful. The trick was to harness it for some greater good."
The professor theorized that "ordinary hypocrisy occurs when someone pretends, say, to have never smoked even though they've actually smoked maybe a few times in their life. But what if someone has the gall to declare she's never, ever smoked even though she's smoked literally a trillion times, has cloned herself and forced the clones to smoke at all hours of the day, has in fact twelve cigarettes dangling from her mouth at the very moment she says she's never smoked, and on top of all that is the very inventor of the modern cigarette and owner of all cigarette companies?
"When the ratio between what's said and what's factually so is 1:1,000,000,000,000, the energy levels are potent indeed, meaning they're cosmically significant. That is, when you say you've never done something, but you've actually done it at least a trillion times, there must be some untold form of energy that could support such an awesome display. Or so we hypothesized."
In the case of Russian meddling in the American election, the professor set about reading something he calls "books," to confirm his suspicion that important information was being left out of the corporate media reports of the event.
"It turns out," said the professor, "that while both Democratic and Republican politicians as well as the pundits and Washington press corps were busy playing the victims of Putin's assault on their democracy, the United States is the world champion in subverting elections. For decades, the CIA and American Special Forces have spread disinformation and orchestrated coups or assassinations in almost every country on Earth. From the stage-managing of foreign elections in client states, the bribery of foreign leaders, and the orchestrating of coups in the Philippines, Italy, Lebanon, Indonesia, Vietnam, Guyana, Japan, Nepal, Laos, Brazil, Guatemala, Bolivia, Chile, Portugal, Jamaica, Panama, Nicaragua, Haiti, Bulgaria, Albania, Russia, Mongolia, Bosnia, Iran, the Congo, Ecuador, Greece, and most other parts of the world; to Washington law firms' support for dictators in oppressing their people and marginalizing their opponents; to using the NSA to spy on the EU, UN, World Bank, and IMF; to vitiating America's own elections by gerrymandering, voter suppression, and demagoguery, no country's meager resume of covert activities comes close to the digest of America's accomplishments on the subject of subverting democracies."
Indeed, researchers at the Perimeter Institute learned that the American government wasn't content with picking winners and losers just in our present timeline, but funded a project for building a time machine so that CIA operatives could travel to the distant past and to alternative realities to spy on foreign human and alien leaders and to meddle with their countries' elections.
Confirming that the Chutzpah Ratio of one-to-a-trillion held in the case of the American political class's response to the Russian hacking, Professor Dillydally still lacked a technique for harnessing the awesome energies he assumed could only have been responsible for such lopsided hypocrisy. While watching the news coverage, the professor "noticed that the American officials who feigned to be aghast that any country would stoop to such an unholy feat of diabolism, to tamper with another country's election, invariably cried as they did so."
Posing as janitors, the researchers collected samples of those tears at press conferences, analyzed them under an electron microscope and made their breakthrough discovery: swimming and thrashing amongst the water, lipid, and other molecules were tens of billions of miniature crocodiles.
"These 'crocodile tears,' as we've come to call them were the key," said the professor. "They're like the singularity in a black hole, great masses compressed to a tiny size, thus containing enormous potential energy which we tapped to create our interdimensional fuel."
The team's starship is set to launch to realms unknown on April Fools' Day, 2020.

Posted In: Comic
Butterflies can even see ultraviolet light and use it for communication such as with nectar guiding and mating behaviors.
A lot of insects see in ultraviolet, and many plants and flowers have ultraviolet markings that we can't see.
I wonder what butterflies see.
I guess it's time for us dogs to get off the pity train now. So my red ball really is red after all. I always knew it was.

Today we sailed all morning, while Jeannette (our ship Cruise Director) gave a talk in the lounge about different areas on the "Romantic Rhine" River as we meandered through the gorgeous Rhine Gorge. According to our ship newsletter, the "Rhine may be about 825 miles long, but it is the 40 or so miles of the Middle Rhine Valley between Bingen and Koblenz that epitomize the romantic notion of the river." We could see quaint village after village along here; vineyards everywhere we looked; huge churches and colorful buildings; but the most exciting views to most of us were the lofty sentinels on the hills, standing watch over many of the villages. I'm talking about the castles, of course! Some were in ruins, some were not, some were in use as museums or hotels, but all were fascinating! Every time we saw that one was coming up, most on the ship would run out on the deck or up to a window to snap a few photos.
Jeannette told us that most of the castles here were built between the 12th and the 14th centuries. Then many of them were refurbished in the 19th century. She also said that the German word "burg" means castle, so anytime you hear of a city with "burg" at the end of the name (such as Wurzburg or Regensburg), you will know it has a castle, usually situated above the town on a hill. From the ship newsletter, here's some quick history of the area.
Around 1200 AD marked the beginning of construction of many of the Rhine fortresses. They were "often refined and expanded until well into the 16th century." Then during the late 1600s, French troops invaded and destroyed many of the towns and castles along the Rhine River. From 1794 to 1812, much of the area was "occupied by the French Revolutionary Army before coming under the control of Napoleon's France. Most of the remaining Rhine fortresses (were) rendered indefensible and (fell) into ruin."
In 1817 the first steamship for tourists began carrying passengers up and down the Rhine River. The late 1800s was when many of the castles were refurbished, probably in large part because of the new tourism industry. In 1992, "the Middle Rhine Valley (was) declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site."
The "first documentary evidence of a vineyard…in the Rhine Valley" points to 643 AD. The Romans introduced it into the region. It is also thought that wild grapes grew here for centuries, and then people discovered what a wonderful beverage they could make from the fruiting berry, and soon vineyards sprang up everywhere and wine became a staple. According to Wikipedia, "In the Middle Ages, wine was the only non-germinated storable drink for the common people, as beer was often expensive and of poor quality, water in urban areas was usually polluted and coffee and tea were still unknown." White Rieslings are the major wines made here, because Riesling grapes grow the best.
A well-known landmark along the Middle Rhine near the town of St. Goarshausen is a large rocky outcropping bordering the narrowest part of the river, which makes it a harrowing area for ship captains trying to navigate. Jeannette told us all about the Lorelei. Folklore has it that a beautiful water spirit or mermaid named Lorelei would sing and lure sailors to the cliffs, only to have them crash and capsize on the rocks. According to Wikipedia, "heavy currents, and a small waterfall in the area…created a murmuring sound, and this, combined with the special echo the rock produces," gave the rock its name. There is a bronze statue of Lorelei herself, which was erected in 1983, near St. Goarshausen.
Obviously, there have been many shipwrecks along this stretch of the river, but the latest one occurred in January of 2011. According to Speigel Online International, a German tanker containing 2,400 tons of sulfuric acid capsized near the Lorelei rock early in the morning. Two or the four crew members on the tanker were lost in the frigid water. The article said there were "no indications that the ship was leaking, and testing on the Rhine downstream showed no abnormalities," so that was one bit of good news.
I was unable to get a good photo of the Lorelei while on the ship, so here is one from euratlas.com:
Enjoy the remainder of my photos of the Middle Rhine River, her villages and her castles!

The global pioneers in this area, namely the scientists led by Anton Zeilinger and Rupert Ursin of the University of Vienna and the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) are also focusing on practical applications.
The absolutely eavesdrop-secure encoding of data is possible with the help of entanglement. A future data network could be based on the transmission of quantum information. A simple intercepting, reinforcing and transmitting of a signal, like the so-called repeaters do in our traditional Internet, cannot be duplicated in the quantum Internet. This would require a type of "quantum repeater."
Now the scientists were able to realize such a repeater between stations of the European Northern Observatory located on the Canary Islands of La Palma and Tenerife. They worked with a total of four photons, of which two each originated from the same source.
In their experiment the researchers showed that the transmission (entanglement swapping) functioned over a distance of 143 kilometers in the turbulent atmosphere which actually interferes with the quantum state. "Because of this we are also optimistic that we will once be able to create a quantum cryptography network on a global scale", Ursin says. The Earth is not enough. The researchers also want to transmit entangled states from satellites.

Facade cladding systems
Titanium zinc is extremely suitable as cladding for both small and large wall surfaces. The so called traditional "roof"-systems are ideal for these façade applications. In addition, also applications in cassette form, horizontal panel systems, reveal panels and flat-lock tiles are common.
With a good preparation of a zinc cladding, it is possible for the standard and the additional systems in all its details, to prefabricate a large part (80-90%) of its material at the workshop.

Ireland's Paul Stirling to play in Bangladesh Premier League
Ireland international Paul Stirling has been picked up by the Bangladesh Premier League franchise Khulna Titans ahead of the 2019 BPL T20 tournament, starting on 5 January 2019.
Stirling, who recently returned from stints in the T10 League in Sharjah and the Everest T20 Premier League in Nepal, said:
"I was delighted to hear that the Khulna Titans were interested in me and jumped at the opportunity. Apart from being a great tournament to be part of, I'm looking forward to the opportunity of working with coach Mahela Jayawardene – one of the greatest Sri Lankan batsman of the last 20 years."
"The squad has made the play-offs for two years running, and features a range of world-class players that I've played alongside or against over the last 10 years – including Dawid Malan who I play under at Middlesex."
"The rise of T20 tournaments around the world has really added a new dimension to the international cricket circuit. The chance to play and train with - and learn from - some of the best in our sport is an experience I do not take lightly, and off the cricket field you get a little bit of an insight into different cultures. The Nepalese experience, that I've just returned from, was eye-opening. To see such enthusiasm for cricket in a nation that is not typically top of mind in our sport is encouraging for cricket's future."
The Khulna Titans franchise was launched in 2016 to replace the Khulna Royal Bengals, which Stirling's agent Niall O'Brien played for in 2012.
