Elementree Kindler Splitter and Mallet SetThe Elementree Kindler provides a safe, efficient and effective means of splitting kindling or small logs. By simply driving a piece of wood up to 150mm in diameter and 200mm long, down through the splitting blades with the supplied dead-blow mallet, the Kindler produces four pieces of kindling or small logs each and every time perfect for getting the fire going, feeding log burners, pizza ovens, barbecues, outdoor firepits or just making Kindling easier!
The Elementree Kindler is supplied with a 1.6 Kg dead blow rubber mallet.
Specification Elementree Kindler Splitter and Mallet Set:
* Kindler weight: 4.7kg
* Overall weight 6.3kg
* Kindler dimensions; 31.5cm H x 26.5cm W
* Kindler is supplied in a rigid carton with labelling and instructions
* 1 Year Warranty
The British designed and manufactured, Elementree Splitter and ElemenTree Kindler have been born of an idea that the homeowner gets a bad deal when it comes to firewood production and we have endeavoured to provide a solution. Our products are designed and built with the aim of revolutionising the home fire wood production market by increasing output, and ease of use for the consumer.
There are currently many ranges of bulk output log splitters for the professional, but with this comes an inevitable large investment aside from the unsuitability for the small firewood producer. What are the alternatives for the homeowner who regularly produces their own firewood? The splitting axe which can be dangerous, hard, heavy work or perhaps an electric log splitter with continuous lifting of heavy logs onto the unit?
These methods generally produce two split logs or pieces of kindling with each turn so repetitive lifting and double handling is required.
With our innovative design, the Elementree Splitter and ElemenTree Kindler bridge the gap between the basic axe and the expensive machinery, both in price and in our labour saving concept.
With no similar product available on the current market and boasting a European registered design, the ElemenTree Splitter and the ElemenTree kindler offer homeowners an exclusive, fast and effective solution to keeping their log shed fully stocked. By manually driving logs and kindling down through the splitting blades with a rubberised mallet, the risk to the user is greatly reduced, plus handling of logs is kept to a minimum whilst quadrupling the output quantity. The tried and tested design requires so little effort that it appeals to all, from the experienced to the occasional user. This is a fantastic product for anyone wishing to split their own logs or kindling and feels the satisfaction from doing so.
19.12.2018 - S.Day writes: "Just wanted to say i was very impressed with how quickly this arrived, its a neat little thing and should be the perfect present for my dad who has 3 woodburners in the house and constantly has to scavenge kindling from the hedges. Dads an engineer, I think he will appreciate the simple genius of the design."

A new paper published in the journal Trends in Food Science and Technology states that food safety professionals should use social media as a communication tool. The research paper was produced by FoodRisC, a food benefit and risk communication organization in Europe, and is titled "The Use of Social Media in Food Risk and Benefit Communication."
About two billion people worldwide use the internet. Monitoring social media can help professionals understand consumer perception of food issues. Social media can also give public health officials real time insight into outbreaks as they develop. Unfortunately, miscommunication can also occur through this outlet.
The paper states that "food risk communicators need to be present and pro-active on social media to increase visibility for the general public and key opinion formers, to establish themselves as credible interactive sources of information, and to enable timely communication with the public."
Crisis situations, such as food poisoning outbreaks and major recalls, are particularly ripe for misinformation. While active involvement with social media takes time and effort, it can be a productive tool to educate the public and communicate about real food risks. Nothing replaces direct communication with the public.

Non-synonymous mutations in the gene encoding vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1) are responsible for resistance to anticoagulant rodenticides in rodents. Detection of resistant individuals is crucial to implement effective management plans and guarantee the success of eradication campaigns. Resistant individuals of the house mouse Mus musculus have been reported in several European countries and in North America. However, to date no data is available for M. musculus domesticus in Italy. In this study, we sequenced the three exons of the VKORC1 gene in 30 mice from the Pontine Archipelago, currently subject to an eradication campaign of invasive rodents. We recorded the presence of a mutation known to confer resistance to rodenticides (Tyr139Cys) in one individual (3.3% of the total samples set). Our data represent the first record of a resistant M. musculus domesticus in Italy.

A Book Report
Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry is a famous historical fiction by Mildred Taylor, an African American writer. It was published by the Penguin Group in 1991, including 276 pages. It mainly tells us the conflicts between black and white and how black fought against racism.
The main characters of the fiction are as follows: Cassie Logan (the narrator), Cassie's Papa (David Paul Logan), Uncle Hammer, the Wallace Brothers and TJ. Five main events are included in it. First, Cassie's teacher gave the broken textbooks to the black students while the white got the good ones. Second, TJ set Cassie's brother Stacey up by claiming that Stacey cheated on an exam. Third, Lillian Jean's father, a white guy, insulted Cassie just because Cassie complained about the service in his store. Fourth, Papa burned the cotton field to save TJ's life when TJ was almost killed by the white. In terms of the setting and time period, it happened in 1933 during the Great Depression in Mississippi. The most useful thing I learned from the fiction is that we should say no to racism and treat people of different race equally.
On the whole, it is not difficult for me to understand the fiction. I think it is impressive and instructive. The racism mentioned in it greatly triggered my interests to keep on reading. I found so many advantages in the book. For instance, it is divided into 12 sections, which facilitate my reviewing of the whole book. In addition, there is a great deal of conversations which effectively reflect the characters' personalities. As for the weakness, if any, would be a lack of illustrations. I think it would help readers to develop a picture of the plots if the text comes along with appropriate illustrations. In my view, the author succeeded in making her writing effective. For example, the author described how the white students' school bus fell into the trap set by Cassie and her brothers in this way – "The bus rattled up the road, though not as quickly as...

The fashion world can be an unfriendly place sometimes, especially towards healthy food consumption. But are things finally starting to change?
It peaked between 2006 and 2009. Anorexia and bulimia awareness, that is.
Every issue of Teen Vogue and Seventeen had an article touting a "real-life story."
The No Anorexia Nolita campaign ran in 2007, with its poster child an anorexic model, Isabelle Caro, who died a few years later at age 28.
In those years before her death, Caro experienced more fame and opportunity than she ever had before, including modelling contracts, talk show appearances, and even a publishing contract for her book, The Little Girl Who Didn't Want to Get Fat.
The media was abuzz with cries of outrage over the rake thin bodies of models on the runways, and in 2006, Italy banned models with a body mass index of less than 18 to walk the runway.
If you Google the issue today, the most recent articles you'll find are from early last year. Does this suggest that talking about eating disorders is no longer important? Is society really cured of its obsession with thin?
It may seem that way, with shows on the airwaves like TLC's Big Sexy following the lives of plus-sized models in NYC, and Glee, which featured the character Lauren Zizes, a sassy and proud plus-sizer.
But the cynic inside tells me that this curve-embracing attitude is just another way to exploit the weight taboo.
Just like the dissection of the problem of under-eating that occurred a few years ago, the treatment of the subject appears to be one full of care, concern, and a desire to help, especially in slim-down shows like The Biggest Loser*, which depicts the weight loss experience from a health and fitness perspective. But these shows nevertheless result in on-screen coverage of an overweight woman tripping and falling on a treadmill, or breaking down and shovelling ice cream down her throat.
In reality, eating disorders haven't disappeared. We've just shifted our collective focus to a different kind of weight struggle; our runways are still filled with girls who are starving.
And the fashion world is no less to blame than ever before, even though it will deny its complicity until it's blue in the face.
Dolce & Gabbana have stated that "Anorexia has nothing to do with fashion but is a psychiatric problem," while Armani said, "Even people who take no notice of fashion get anorexic."
But the truth is painfully evident. The way the fashion world has configured its precise conception of beauty – tall, lean, elegant – plays a major factor in the body images of girls everywhere.
So how do we change? There are two things we can do: renew our push to include women of all shapes and sizes on the runway, and most importantly, stop watching, and start really caring.

It is the day before the IPL final; two-time champions Chennai Super Kings will play Mumbai Indians at Eden Gardens and the operations team is trying its best to ensure that Indian cricket's alternative universe will be in smooth functioning order.
Outside, it is anything but. Three cricketers belonging to Rajasthan Royals, who lost the second qualifier, will remain in a Delhi Police lock-up as the final is played. Hundreds of miles south, an official/owner/team principal of Super Kings will spend the night of the final with the crime branch of the Mumbai Police. The day before the game, rather than strut around Kolkata with the team, Gurunath Meiyappan was brought to court and formally charged with 12 violations of three separate laws.
The most emphatic, definitive piece of news on this day before the final was BCCI president N Srinivasan telling a scrum of reporters wherever he went that he would not resign. "There is no need. I have done nothing wrong." Oh, and the final is actually going to go ahead - that information was passed on to a waiting pack of cameramen through a car window by IPL chairman Rajiv Shukla.
Right there, on this day, we saw the BCCI holding up a mirror up to itself. Not as governors of the world's wealthiest domestic T20 league, the head honchos of the world game in resources and audience. The mirror showed up an organisation, across the highest ranks of its leadership, out of touch with the requirements of reality.
Dealing with the dizzy speed at which events have moved over the past few days, damaging the credibility of the IPL itself, required sagacity and action.
What it got from Srinivasan was disdain over questions about his situation and his three-pronged existential dilemma, a conflict of interests come to horrifying life. Something has gone terribly wrong with his board's biggest tournament, the IPL team he owns and his son-in-law, whom he put in charge of that very team.
Yet the single refrain heard from Srinivasan on the eve of the IPL final was a hectoring, focused around himself and his position: "I have done nothing wrong. I am sorry. I cannot be bulldozed and I will not allow the press or the others to railroad me." This from a "man of cricket," when the cricket under his watch unravels at high speed.
At a time when police across cities in India are reeling in bookies who are then singing about cricketing criminality in full chorus, what the IPL and Indian cricket needed through Shukla and the BCCI was an acknowledgement of a state of emergency in Indian cricket and transparency about its future course of action, both before and after the IPL final. What we needed was a statement, a signal, anything to indicate that the BCCI was seized of Gurunath's arrest and its implications. What we got was silence and opacity.
The IPL now runs on such an operational auto-pilot that it found no cause to add to its "four million and counting" tweets, by assuring the outer world - the audience it feeds into and lives off - that Gurunath's arrest would have no impact on either the IPL final or Super Kings for the next two days. Until Shukla formally tossed a few crumbs of comments to television.
All the IPL has done in the 24 hours since Gurunath's arrest is, issue a code of conduct warning to Dwayne Smith, and remove the "Fair Play Award" category from its webpage. The latter with good reason: Three players and an official from the two teams at the top of that Fair Play table are at the moment in police custody, having their sense of fair play questioned.
The IPL's governing council and the BCCI's powerbrokers are, give or take a few, the same people. Those who amended the BCCI's constitution to allow board members - starting with Srinivasan himself - to have a "commercial interest" in events related to the board. No wonder, then, that on Saturday the BCCI's priorities immediately turned to tackling its power crisis and letting IPL 2013 run itself out. There was little attention given to rescuing the image of the league, to stop it from running aground, and setting it back on even keel.
Under the Srinivasan regime, the urge to control the message around Indian cricket has become so reflexive that in a time of a crisis the immediate response was to hold back giving out any message. This method may have worked in the 1970s but in a 24/7 information age it showed the board as out of touch with its audience and its time. It proved that in the board, whether controlled by Srinivasan or Shukla or any of their kind, governance and a sense of responsibility remain truly shipwrecked.

Arrogant Bastard Ale (473ml Can)
This is an aggressive beer. You probably won't like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to appreciate an ale of this quality and depth
Tasting Notes
American Strong Ale
Not a style, per se, but the only logical category to incorporate the plethora of strong, stylistically vague beers coming from American micros these days. Some are related to English Strong Ales, but with more hop, while others are ultra-strong variants on the IPA theme. But no matter how varied their origins or characters might be, all are intense, potent, with generous quantities of hops and malt.

CLEVELAND (CBSNewYork/AP) — The New York Yankees have placed slumping slugger Matt Holliday on the disabled list with a lower back issue.
The move with the designated hitter was expected after Holliday tweaked his back while swinging on Friday night. He didn't play in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Cleveland Indians so he could get more treatment and be evaluated by the club's medical staff.
Holliday is batting just .136 (11 of 81) with one homer and four RBIs since July 14. Before Saturday, he had just four hits in his past 23 at-bats.
The club recalled first baseman Garrett Cooper from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to take Holliday's roster spot.
The 37-year-old Holliday is batting .229 with 16 homers and 51 RBIs in 88 games. This is his second DL stint this season. He missed the final 14 games of the first half with a viral infection.

Cleveland Browns veteran offensive lineman Joe Thomas says his 11 years in the NFL have already taken a toll on his body.
In an interview on "In Depth with Graham Bensinger," Thomas said he's already experiencing memory loss and he's sure "the damage has already been done" to his brain.
However, Thomas also has an unusual perspective on it. Thomas told Bensinger that the NFL, like all other jobs, comes with risks and that he needs to accept them in order to continue supporting his family.
"There's definitely a concern, but the way I look at it is, just about every profession in our society, there's some lasting effects," Thomas said. "It's just the way our society is set up. People have to work. So, if I was a stone mason or I was a painter or if I was building bridges or whatever, there's gonna be some wear and tear on your body and your brain and that's just the way it is.
"To be able to live the lifestyle and provide for my family that football has been able to do, to me, it's a trade-off I'm willing to accept."
When Bensinger argued some jobs have worse effects than others, Thomas replied that Bensinger's job, which involves sitting, has likely affected his hip flexors and back. Thomas also said his memory loss will affect his wife more than him.
"She's the one that's going to have to deal with it," Thomas laughed. "Cause I'm gonna be, 'Who are you? Where did I get there?'"
Thomas continued, saying he hopes being "good-natured" about it will help him going forward.
"I think from my perspective, just being good-natured about it hopefully will help. I definitely expect memory loss. I'm already seeing memory loss, and maybe that's just because of my old age or maybe it's football, it's hard to tell … It's hard to tell if it's because of football or if it's just because of you're 32 and not 21 anymore, and you've got a lot of stuff going on in your life."
Thomas said his memory loss is mostly with "short-term" things, like forgetting what he went to the grocery store for.
"I think if you really let it bug you, it can make you depressed and feel sad, like 'I don't have the memory that I used to have.' But I try to be relatively good-natured about it."
Thomas said he is concerned about the diseases that have been linked to brain injuries, naming Alzheimer's and Lou Gehrig's disease, and things like mood swings and depression that have led to suicide. However, he said he's already gone too far to worry about it too much.
"From my perspective, I can't do anything about it. This was the profession that I have already chosen and most of the damage has already been done already."
Thomas said he hopes that in ten years, medicine will have advanced and be able to help players more than some of the former players who have struggled with the aftermath of their injuries.
Certainly, Thomas' opinions differ from the numerous players who have retired early in hopes of protecting their health.
Likewise, one of the biggest problems with the NFL's concussion protocol is having players admit that they have gotten hurt or are experiencing concussion-like symptoms. Thomas' message seemingly doesn't help change the culture of admitting when a player has an injury and willingly sitting out.
Thomas' agent did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

text: My Family , Education What Is The Real Cost Of 'Free' Education For Parents? The beginning of the school year can be an exciting time, but the costs associated of preparing your child for the new school year can also be a source of real struggle for parents, due to the cost of various necessities like uniforms, books, and even 'voluntary contributions' imposed by schools. A recent survey by Barnardos has found that the cost of sending a child to school in 2019 is approximately €340 for senior infants, €380 for fourth class pupils, and a whopping €735 for first-year pupils. This puts parents under huge pressure, with 42% or primary and 47% of secondary school parents reporting cutting back on other costs, and forgoing paying bills in order to pay for school essentials. Read Next: 10 Tips For Affordable Back To School Buying Worryingly, 8% of primary and 14% of secondary school parents are also forced to borrow money to cover school costs. Despite a 5% increase in capitation fees, over two-thirds of parents are still asked to pay voluntary contributions to schools, which can range from €60 for a senior infants pupil to €115 for a first-year student. Key costs include school books, with approximately 50% of parents reporting an increase in the cost of school books this year. However, the majority of those taking part in a book rental school indicated that their contributions have remained the same. Read Next: These Back To School Tips Will Make You Feel Like A Supermum Other necessary purchases include school uniforms. Though there are some more affordable options available, 75% of primary and 95% of secondary school parents reported that they are required to buy crested or branded uniforms, which again adds additional costs. Barnardos have recommended the introduction of free school books for primary school pupils. The estimated cost of €20m or 0.2% of the education budget in 2020, would 'Move towards a truly free education system in subsequent Budgets.' Read Next: 5 Tips For Choosing The Right School Bag Suzanne Connolly, Barnardos CEO, said: "Every year for more than a decade parents have been telling Barnardos- through our School Costs Survey- that their children's back to school costs place a significant financial burden upon them … Once more it is clear from our survey that parents are stressed out, overburdened and fed up of subsidising our so-called 'free education' system. The substantial financial cost of sending a child to school means access to education is not free and anything but equal. "Developing a free education system will not happen overnight but the government must take the first step in creating a more equitable system."

National Geographic Pitches the Power of Storytelling, and Returning Franchises
The Disney deal is looming, but it's 'business as usual,' said CEO
National Geographic came into this year's upfront intent on touting the success of its global rebrand from fall 2016 and nothing—not even the looming Disney-Fox deal, which could see it move to a new company next year—will cause it to lose focus.
So the network stuck to the game plan during Wednesday night's upfront event, which it called "Further Front," held at a five-story SoHo townhouse that it turned into the Nat Geo House.
"A year and a half ago, we embarked on this new strategy to really elevate our programming and ensure that we are the world's leading destination for premium content around science and adventure and exploration. And that transformation has taken hold," Courteney Monroe, CEO, National Geographic Global Networks, told Adweek. "Our upfront slate reaffirms our commitment to that big, bold, creatively ambitious, premium content, as well as our commitment to using the power of storytelling to change the world and amplify topics that matter."
In this upfront, Monroe is hoping for more brand partnerships along the lines of Breaking2, the documentary National Geographic produced last year with Nike. The special, which aired ad-free in September, followed three of the world's top distance runners as they spent a year refining their training with scientists from the Nike Sport Research Lab with the goal of becoming the first person to complete a marathon in under two hours.
"That is a great example of a brand who had never advertised with us before," Monroe said of Nike. "We can have very unique conversations with advertisers about harnessing the power of the full National Geographic portfolio to amplify their brand's story." Between the network's global reach, its digital and social footprints and National Geographic magazine "what we can bring to bear, to amplify both our own stories as well as the stories of our brands, is unrivaled in the marketplace."
National Geographic is heading into the upfront with several returning franchises, including Season 2 of Mars, Season 3 of The Story of God With Morgan Freeman, another season of StarTalk (with Neil deGrasse Tyson), a new season of Cosmos (called Cosmos: Possible Worlds, also with deGrasse Tyson hosting and airing next spring) and a third season of Genius, which will focus on Frankenstein author Mary Shelley (the Picasso-centric Season 2 is airing now).
Monroe said that Story of God, Mars and Genius are National Geographic's three most-watched series in network history.
In addition to those franchises, National Geographic announced several new shows and specials as part of its upfront slate:
- Valley of the Boom is a six-episode limited series about the '90s tech boom and bust of Silicon Valley. Monroe said it will be a scripted/unscripted hybrid series, like Mars; roughly 75 percent of it will be scripted and other 25 percent will use documentary footage and new interviews with the real players. The series will focus on the creation of the Netscape internet browser, theglobe.com (a social network precursor to Facebook) and Pixelon, which pioneered video compression technology. "The tone is very much like The Big Short, where we're breaking the fourth wall and having a lot of fun with the material," said Monroe.
- Scripted series The Hot Zone, from executive producer Ridley Scott, is based on the Richard Preston bestseller about the Ebola virus and the efforts to prevent it from spreading to the human population.
- The six-part docuseries Hostile Planet looks at the world's most extreme environments and reveals how various animal species survive and thrive in them. "It's beautiful, epic, natural history, but told with a very specific lens, which is the changing and very hostile planet, and how that is impacting species and their ability to thrive," said Monroe.
- Feature documentary Free Solo chronicles the world's foremost free climber, Alex Honnold, who scales massive peaks without ropes (or "free solo". Last June, he was the first person to free solo climb the rock face of Yosemite's El Captian. "You know how it ends, and still, there are parts where you actually can't watch. It's visually spectacular and an unbelievable chronicle of unparalleled human achievement," said Monroe. The documentary will get a festival run and limited theatrical release before having a global premiere on National Geographic Channel.
- Following last year's Earth Live, Yellowstone Live will be a four-day event showcasing the wildlife of Yellowstone National Park.
- The special Apollo will recount the story of the Apollo space program, leading into the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission.
"This is now a continuation of strategy that's working really well for us, and we're really excited about what we have," Monroe said. While National Geographic is sticking to its TV rebrand strategy from 2016, on Monday the company announced that its 130-year-old magazine will be getting an overhaul.
When it comes to the looming Disney-Fox merger, Monroe reiterated what she previously told Adweek: She, like the other networks involved in Disney's pending $52.4 billion acquisition of 21st Century Fox (including ABC, Fox and FX), won't alter her upfront strategy, given that the deal could take another year to close.
"It's such an exciting and energizing time at National Geographic," she said. "We have no shortage of work to do as we head into the upfront. So it really is business as usual. I think our brand would fit very snugly with Disney, if that's what ends up happening. But for now, we are very focused and not allowing us to get distracted."
"This year's upfront is going to operate exactly as is," Joe Marchese, president of advertising revenue for Fox Networks Group, which includes National Geographic, told Adweek in February. "We have to operate that way for practical reasons as a business, but also because with these other companies, who knows what the future holds?"

An Important Part of the Whole
I've noticed something very interesting about people when it comes to describing their physical features. Everyone tends to point out what they believe to be their major defects first. We live in a culture that puts so much emphasis on the wrong thing, and I admit this affects us all. We measure our success, or lack there of, by that of another. The way that we view ourselves in light of gifts and talents, when it comes to our purpose and calling, is usually very negative. Yet all of those thoughts are totally irrelevant when we begin to believe what the Word of God has to say about us.
We are all members of one body; therefore, we each have a specific purpose that God designed for us to fulfill. God made everyone for a special and unique reason. Not only is every individual unique, but also God's purpose for him or her in this life is necessary. Consider what the Bible says:
"If the foot shall say, because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? And if the ear shall say, because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. And if they were all one member, where were the body" (1 Corinthians 12:15-19).
Here's what I love about this scripture: God has placed every member in the body as it pleased Him. He is absolutely pleased with the way you and I were designed. He isn't going to take away the talents and gifts that He intended for us to share with others. They are without repentance. To me, that says we are created with intent. The God that created us in His image is not ashamed for the way that He made us as individuals.
Since God was so intentional with the way He created us, imagine how it make Him feel when we choose to believe that our purpose is less significant than that of another. We are all created in His image. In the same respect, we shouldn't boastfully think that the gift God has given us is more important, or should be preferred over another. Psalms 133: declares, " Behold how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. For there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore" (1, 3).
I think the Book of Acts sets a great model of how we should live as the church. I can imagine how they all felt as they gladly received the Word of God. We are told that they had all things in common, continued daily with one accord in the temple, and went from house to house breaking bread and eating their meat with gladness and singleness of heart. I'm positive that some possessed more resources than others, but because of their singleness of heart they served together with gladness. Lets adopt the same mindset.
Praise God that your purpose is necessary. No one else is exactly like you, therefore, without you, something would be missing. The body of Christ has been given a specific mission and your role is important. Simply examine who you are, and identify your God given gifts, and you will have taken one gigantic step toward finding your purpose in life.
Lord, Your body, the church is fearfully and wonderfully made. We praise you for making each one of us a part of your body. Thank you for giving us all a purpose to serve in your Kingdom, as you fill us with your Spirit to do your will. Amen!

Over the holiday break, the JV and Varsity boys' and girls' teams played in the Emerling Holiday basketball tournament. The following are the results:
Varsity Boys Basketball, Coach Greg Miller
The holiday season was great for the Springville Boys Basketball team as they won the Emerling Tournament against neighboring North Collins. Prior to this, the Griffins started the season 0-3 against all division teams including Pioneer, Lakeshore, and Cheektowaga. However, their winning ways began with a victory over division rival East Aurora on Dec. 22, with a score of 58-47.
Leading the way for the Griffins was junior point guard Mason Goodridge. He totaled 23 points along with 3 assists and 5 rebounds. Following Mason was Adam Pruitt, with 20 points and 6 rebounds, and Tyler Kostelny with 11 points and 4 assists. The team played very well against East Aurora both offensively and defensively. The team came out aggressive attacking the bucket every chance we had, and putting a lot of pressure on EA.
Following the impressive division win over EA, the Griffins entered their home tournament with a record of 1-3. In the first game against Cattaraugus-Little Valley, Springville had one of their best team performances. They had contributions from most of their players and that helped as they won 66-50 over Catt LV. Leading the way was Goodridge with 21 points, followed by Kostelny with 17 points. Again the team succeeded on both ends of the court, especially with strong defensive play by Matt Sion, Austin Lux, and Alex Francisco. Other scorers included Pruitt with 9, Mike Place and Tyler Attebery, both with 5, and Zach Parker with 4.
In the second game of the Emerling Tournament, the Griffins took on North Collins, and came out on top, 53-42. Leading the way for the Griffins was Goodridge with an impressive 32-point night. Along with strong play by Pruitt who had 10 points and 6 rebounds, and Kostelny with 6 points, before getting injured and leaving the game. The Griffs were able to keep a strong lead throughout the game and came out on top. Again, this win was a team effort and all players had a role in the win. The team played extremely well even when faced with many challenges. Tournament players from Springville included Adam Pruitt and MVP of the tournament was Mason Goodridge.
The team opens up 2018 with an away game at Starpoint on Tuesday, Jan. 2. Following this, the team will have a home stretch of five games through the first half of January.
JV Boys Basketball, Coach Dave Broom
In last week's basketball tournament, the boys JV won the first game against Catt. Little Valley 45 to 26. Austin Boies had 15 points and Eric Copeland had 11 points. We lost to Pioneer in a hard fought championship game 52 to 38. Austin Boies had 24 points and Alex Elkins had 6 points. Austin Boies and Eric Copeland were selected to the all tournament team.
Girls' Varsity Basketball, Coach Bob Gainey
The Varsity Girls Basketball team played host to their annual Emerling Holiday Tournament over the Holiday Break. The girls opened play against MEC and came away with a 39-24 victory. The girls controlled the game early behind Leah Frank's 10 first-quarter points, who ended up leading all scorers with 12 points on the evening. The stifling defense of the Lady Griffs was on full display as they forced a season-high 22 turnovers. Sydney Rosati and Ivette Lewandowski each scored 8 points, Grace Zabawa added 4 points, Nyah Solly, Mackenzie Engel and Ryan Stedman each scored 2 points with Jess Engel rounding out the scoring with one point.
The girls played in the championship game one day later against the undefeated West Seneca East Trojans. The girls played one of their best games on the year, but fell short in the end. Once again, Leah Frank started the team off hot in the first quarter scoring 10 of her 12 points in the first 8 minutes of the game. That quarter saw some great back and forth action between both teams. The girls were down by 4 points at halftime and as many as 13 points in the third quarter. The girls tightened up their play led by the sharp shooting skills of Ivette Lewandowski and some big shots made by Ryan Stedman.
The team took a two point lead in the 4th quarter after Kelsey Zabawa finished a beautiful low post move. Unfortunately, West Seneca East got the best of the Lady Griffs in transition as they repeatedly got out in space and finished at the basket to bring home the win. The girls lost 57-47, despite the score the girls made massive strides with their scoring and rebounding. Scorers from the game included: Leah Frank (12 points,) Ivette Lewandowski (19 points,) Ryan Stedman (6 points,) Kelsey Zabawa (4 points,) and Nyah Solly, Grace Zabawa, and Mackenzie Engel all finished with 2 points apiece.
JV Girls Basketball, Coach Chris Mathewson
The Springville JV Girls Basketball team finished in 2nd place in the Emerling Holiday Tournament over break.
The girls posted a first-round win over MEC (Middle Early College) 56-18. Meghan Rehrauer led the Griffs with 20 points followed by Gracie Attebery with 10 points and Cora Boundy with 9 points.
In the 2nd round, the Griffs continued to apply defensive pressure resulting in numerous steals but were unable to convert their offensive chances losing to WSE (W Seneca East) 42-21. Meg Rehrauer again led the Griffs with 8 points with Cora Boundy adding 6 points. Both Meg and Cora were selected to the All-Tournament team.

I recently found photos of myself as a child sitting on Santa's lap, each showing a different level of comfort or, in some cases, discomfort. I look uncertain in many of the photos. I don't remember if, as a child, I wanted to sit on Santa's lap or if I did it because I thought it was expected of me.
My daughter's photos with Santa Claus tell a very different story. Other than a photo of her as 16-month-old sitting on Mrs. Claus' lap (Santa was there, too), she is standing next to Santa in most of the photos — but is never on his lap.
Most parents seem to insist their child take a photo on Santa's lap with no regard for whether their terrified child is willing to pose with Santa or not. I've seen my share of screaming children being cajoled to sit on Santa's lap, even just for a minute, all in the name of capturing a holiday photo.
When she was younger I would take my now 13-year-old daughter to see Santa each year, but I never felt compelled to make her climb up on his lap like the other kids. If she had told me she didn't want to go see him or if she had cried once we got there, it would have been fine with skipping the visit that year.
I admit I never forced my daughter to sit on Santa's lap because when I was a 20-something newspaper reporter one of my assignments was to observe the local Santa Claus and write a feature article about his exchanges with the children. For some reason, what I observed just didn't sit right with me.
More: Sleeping baby makes for most unexpectedly awesome Santa pictures
During one of Santa's odd exchanges with a 5-year-old girl, Santa suggested to the toddler that perhaps he should bring her makeup and high heel shoes. I remember looking at the girl's mother for signs of discomfort but her mother was probably too busy snapping photos to hear the conversation. There were other exchanges that day that set off alarm bells in my head but since none of the parents seemed to notice, and I wasn't a parent myself at the time, I wasn't sure what to do about it.
Back at the newspaper office, my editor asked me about my visit with Santa. I told him I thought Santa was a creep, explained why and asked if I should do some digging to see if I could find anything odd in the guy's background. My editor told me to stick with the feature story I was supposed to write and reminded me that I had only an hour to file the story.
More: 20 Things your toddler really wants for Christmas
Fast-forward about three months from that day. The cops reporter, who had overhead my conversation with the editor about Santa, stops by my desk to tell me that the same guy who played Santa was arrested for child molestation.
That incident taught me two things:
Always trust your gut.
Never force your child to sit on Santa's lap
Now I'm not saying that every Santa is a creep. I am sure 99.9 percent of all men who portray Santa Claus are upstanding citizens. After all, shopping malls and other venues that offer visits with Santa have pretty rigorous background checks for Mr. Claus and his helpers.
But even with a well-regarded Santa, we need to be mindful of our kids and how theymight feel about sitting on Santa's lap, or even visiting Santa. And we need to accept that standing next to Santa or kneeling in front of him is perfectly acceptable.
Isn't a child who looks comfortable standing next to Santa going to take a better photo than child who looks uncertain or downright miserable on Santa's lap?
More: The baby names guaranteed to land on Santa's naughty list
One of my most cherished memories of my daughter visiting Santa was at our local nature center. Each family was given five minutes to visit with Mr. Claus and his helpers in a log cabin. Chairs were set up next the fireplace and family members were invited to sit on a chair and visit with Santa.
The photo I have from this visit is adorable. It shows my daughter and Santa sitting next to each other fully engaged in conversation. I can't think of anything more enchanting than my daughter sitting around the fire with Santa and his helpers and talking about the North Pole.
I'm glad I never forced my daughter to sit on Santa's lap. All her memories of visiting Santa are pleasant and she is genuinely happy in all our photos with Santa. If your kid is screaming, "No Santa, No Santa!" or just seems unhappy about having to sit on Santa's lap, give yourself and them a break.
More: Mom defends her 'disgusting' Christmas tree photo
Suggest they stand next to, or in front of, Santa. And, if that doesn't cheer them up, then maybe you should skip a visit to Santa this year.
After all, who wants to share or display a photo of their kid looking incredibly uncomfortable with Santa just to have that holiday moment?

One of the biggest events at the Sochi Winter Olympics is being held Tuesday, the men's half-pipe. It's one of several competitions fans will recognize from the Winter X Games. While you won't see any snowmobiles in Sochi, the Olympics do seem to be getting more extreme, mostly because of the television audience.
watching mostly unidentifiable skiers race against the clock is the stuff dreams are made of. But, for a lot of people, it's time to see what on the other channels.
The International Olympic Committee hopes the solution is to use terms like "big-air," "high fives" and "dudes on snow," therefore bringing the X Games and it's lingo to the Olympic Games.
They don't come more laid back cool than the Games' first ever gold medal winner in Slopestyle, Sage Kotzenburg. He explained some of the tricks he does on the snow to CBS News' Mark Phillips.
"I mean anything from 'dude' and 'gnarly,' 'stomp it,' 'send it,' 'spice,'" he said. "There's so much - 'rodeos,' 'double corks,' 'triple corks,' '1620s,' 'Japan grabs,' 'crails' - it keeps going on and on. It's just unreal."
He won with a "cab double cork 1260" with a "holy grail grab" and a "back 1620 Japan air."
Like the snowboard slopestyle, last night's moguls were an X-Games import. Slopestyle ski, along with the half-pipe, snow cross, ski cross, parallel snowboard racing have all been added in the hope of keeping young eyes from drifting away.
Kotzenburg told CBS News' Mark Phillips that he thinks it's "pretty cool" that these sports are in the Olympics.
"It's what everyone on the mountain's doing, all the kids, they're getting into it, they're going into slopestyle," he said. "They're going to training parks, halfpipes, and it's cool that the Olympics is showcasing it and hopefully everyone back home is having fun watching it "
It's not just cool, it's desperate business. The games have become just another professional, multi-billion-dollar sport that has to grow its audience to survive.

The U.S. has more than 28 million small businesses, and they employ nearly half of private-sector workers, according to federal data.
What they often lack is staff dedicated to tax matters. Yet this year small businesses face thorny new issues.
In particular, owners of small businesses should consider taking these three steps:

I think FScape is having its tenth anniversary in 2010! Hurray... In ten years I didn't manage to write a good documentation of this software, though...

|
Basics

|FScape is a standalone audio rendering software similar to SoundHack or SonicWorx.
|

FScape was celebrating its tenth anniversary in 2010! Hurray...

|Originally FScape was meant as an add-on for Tom Erbe's SoundHack, specifically as a processor of the STFT files created from SoundHacks "Spectral Analysis". The 'F' stood for "Frequency Domain" or "Fourier Space". The original kernel is now contained in the "Spectral Patcher" module and is accompanied by many other algorithms in the fourier domain as well as in in the time domain.
|The development of FScape began in the year 2000. It leads like a red thread throughout my musical work, by conceiving sound as a 'clay', a flexible, sculptural mass. Originally it started as an extension to Tom Erbe's SoundHack, providing 'spectral operators'. Today FScape consists of around fifty independent modules for rendering audio files. From simple utilities such as separating channels, normalising, cutting and splicing sounds, through various DSP and filtering algorithms to more complex algorithmic units which take a sound, analyse it, and rearrange it in new forms. Many of the processes and their ways of parametrisation are unique.
|A peculiarity is the fact that all modules operate in non real-time. This allows on the one hand to access the sounds in a non linear fashion, but also facilitates complex calculations which even today would not be possible in real-time speed. There are many processes, however, which run hundred times faster than real-time, opening interesting applications for the embedding (using an OSC interface) of FScape in real-time improvisation or installations. For instance, in my piece «Inter-Play / Re-Sound», parts of the past improvisation—which is record continuously—are picked out, transformed and re-injected, after only a few seconds of processing, as new material for the ongoing piece.
|FScape was originally written in Java 1.1 with AWT GUI and compiled on Mac OS 8, later translated to Java 1.4 with Swing GUI on Mac OS X. It is written platform independant.
|Although many modules have close relationships with particular pieces I wrote, they nevertheless form a universal toolkit for any work on concrete sounds. FScape is used by composers worldwide and is also suitable for teaching, as the basic setup is fairly simple and some modules quickly provide rewarding results with minimum prior knowledge. At the same time, the repertoire is virtually unlimited, as the modules can be combined in ever new ways (e.g. a sound could be first translated into the Fourier domain before applying other algorithms which you would normally reason about in the time domain, or processes could be repeated over and over again).
|Beware that this used to be my "personal" tool for years so it's likely to be cryptic for anyone else. Also sorry for not yet providing a proper manual, this online help is incomplete and often out of date. So if you are not the kind of person that can spend hours on finding out how an app works, you better consider using other software.

Basics - Quick Start

|When you launch FScape a tiny window appears on your screen, the "main window".
|When you launch FScape a small window appears on your screen, the "main window". To do something useful, you will have a number of existing sound files or recordings that you wish to process. You never open sound files directly in FScape. Instead you create an instance of the desired processing module. The module has its dedicated window within which you can specify the input and output sound files.

DOUGLAS DUNN: Sky Eye and Cleave at Danspace, St. Mark's Church
Enthusiasm, in its Greek root, refers to an inspiration from deep in the bowels, animating the body with an energy that is as biological as it is spiritual. Douglas Dunn is a wry enthusiast: he choreographs with the vital genius that devotes itself to a love for life being life. But his intuition is genuine, and he knows that enthusiasm without doubtful irony falls flat. Dunn's two recent works of choreography, Sky Eye and Cleave, at the Danspace project at St. Mark's Church, explore the zones in which the body, music, and shape nonoverlap, jar, and enliven one another. Dunn highlights and exaggerates the movements you see every day, wherever you go. He is a great stylist, limning the potent expressivity that underlies human movement as such, going to the body as generating source of the dance. In his words, it is a matter of "playing off the predictable," using a familiar vocabulary to get to an unfamiliar place.
Sky Eye is aptly titled: if one were to look at the performance from a birds-eye view, one would not only see the sum of gestures and pieces that are the performance proper, but also the gaps and blank areas that keep those pieces distinct. It was left open in such a way that it could be varied without losing its particularity. Dunn invites such variation. It is often left up to his dancers to decide where, before or after a musical phrase, to place the steps he gives them, providing room for improvisation, and a level of drift. Dunn is skeptical of what he calls the "seriousness" of dancing to music; this is one way he loosens things up. He also does this by having the dancers stay on the beat so literally, with their attack so at its center, that the phrase is overstated, even ironized, calling attention to the fact of the dancing itself, as dance.
In its first conception in the 1980s, Sky Eye was an experiment with difference, juxtaposition, and with the use of music which Dunn had seldom previously used. The music's tone shifted tenor from segment to segment with little or no continuity. Fruitfully, the dancers' gestures also mismatched often. Dunn said that this is why he chose such specific music, music one could recognize as, say, "GOTHIC," "SPANISH," or "AFRICAN." Their moods didn't logically fit together. This shifting abruptness suspended the arrangement's potential, creating spontaneity amidst the un-sequenced moods. It was very full; its crammed aesthetic was part of its drive. The segments, so charged as they were at their edges with surprise, together resulted in a self-perpetuating subterfuge, the phrases energized by not fitting together, each shape making the other pop.
Cleave was a new work. Its exploration of symmetry was uncharacteristic of Dunn's choreography. Its intensity,as the title suggests (the word cleave meaning both to cut apart and to yoke together: a one-word paradox) was reached through a rather bi-polar fusion of symmetry and chaos. Its loose narrative, implying a medieval pageant in which Douglas Dunn and Grazia Della Terza played King and Queen, was a new conceit for Dunn. He successfully drew it away from the expected catharsis a narrative signals. His ability to pull textures of expression away from meaning was at work here: there was only the feel of a narrative: no plot.
A number of the movements in Cleave could be characterized as intentionally retarded, spasmodic. From this varied source of writhes, spasms, and collapses there sprung a wild, unpredictable constellation of geometric, athletic forms. The poet Anne Waldman, during a discussion after the performance, typified these gestures accurately as Romanesque. Delving into the full spectrum of raw movement, the spastic on one end, the mannered on the other, the dance pulled together a full range of both form and feeling: giddy humor together with hysteria and despair. Its euphony came from discord, and, working off of flaws, you might call the dance's process evolutionary.
Both performances abstracted language to the level of music and dance. Sky Eye had a segment in which all but one dancer were speaking in babble, while, in the background, a dancer elaborated syntax and syllable with fluid steps. In Cleave, Dunn periodically read from the Latin of Seneca and Martial: a good choice, given Latin's tendency toward the conceptual. Dancer and text merged into a sort of language-animal. During Christopher Williams's astonishing solo, his gestures were at times guided by the text's structure, and at times seemed to override it, imbuing it with physicality and frenzy. Douglas Dunn said using text with semantic meaning is new to him, perhaps a sign that he has begun to allow ideas into his choreography. Here's a snippet in English from what he read: "The leopard carries a yoke attached to his spotted neck…Ugly bison draw chariots and the great beast, bidden perform an agile dance, does not refuse its black master." One thing left open was, what, in the end, is subject to the other's will? Dance or choreography? Symmetry or spasm? King or Queen? Cleave's title would suggest Dunn has had it both ways.

Well it has been a while since we last updated this website – but have been hugely busy on a variety of projects. Dangerous Ideas Southampton is growing well and tapping into that feeling that being empowered as individuals to achieve grassroots change is the way forward. The Pop Up community shop Tiger Yard opened just before Christmas 2014, selling a range of work by local artists and fair traded goods, plus offering a community venue that supports a more ecological approach to living. And we are working on mapping across Southampton and beyond so we can celebrate what is great about Southampton, including working hard to improve the development of the local social enterprise sector with Social Enterprise Link

I was helping out in the Power BI Community and I came across the following requirement.
The user had sales figures and based on the Previous month, they wanted to have an arrow showing if it was up or down. As well as if there was no data to say that there was no data. So this is how I achieved this below.
The first thing that I did was to create a Date table and link this to my table above.
This ensured that when I wanted to create my PREVIOUSMONTH DAX measure it would be simple and easy.
I did it using my blog post: Power BI – How to Easily Create Dynamic Date Table/Dimension with Fiscal Attributes using Power Quer...
Once I had my Date Table I then created the relationship between my Sales Data table and my Date Table
Next I created my Previous Month measure with the following DAX Syntax
Previous Month Sales =
CALCULATE ( [Sales Amount], PREVIOUSMONTH ( 'Date'[Calendar Date] ) )
Now in order to get the Unicode Characters I followed the very interesting blog post by Chris Webb: The DAX Unichar() Function And How To Use It In Measures For Data Visualisation, in which I learnt how to use Unicode Characters in a measure.
Next I found the following website which contained the Unicode numbers for my arrows I required.
I then made a note of the following ones that I wanted to use
The final piece was where I created the Arrows measure.
Below is the DAX Syntax with an explanation afterwards
Arrows = SWITCH(
ISBLANK([Previous Month Sales]),BLANK(),
|| ISBLANK([Sales Amount]),BLANK(),
[Sales Amount] <= 0, "No Data",
[Sales Amount] >= [Previous Month Sales],UNICHAR(9650), [Sales Amount] <= [Previous Month Sales],UNICHAR(9660),
Below is the outputted table, which is doing as what was required.
As you can see from above being able to make sure of the Unicode Characters can make your dataset that much easier to read.
You can view it here: PBI – Unicode Measures
You can download the Sample File here: PBI – Unicode Measures.pbix
Hi @GilbertQ,
Is there a way to get green & red up and down arrows?
Hi @powerrdl @GilbertQ
my way to get green & red up and down arrows and yellow diamond...
Keeping the example measure and changing unicodes
Arrows = SWITCH( TRUE(); ISBLANK([Previous Month Sales]) || ISBLANK([Sales Amount]);BLANK(); [Sales Amount] <= 0; UNICHAR(128310); [Sales Amount] >= [Previous Month Sales];UNICHAR(9650); [Sales Amount] <= [Previous Month Sales];UNICHAR(128315); BLANK() )
No unicode for green arrow up but we can use (9650) grey arrow and switch to green under column formating, select the measure Arrows changue font color to 00B200 and activate all options except Header.
Wow ! That's cool, will try and revert
Many Thanks 🙂
Hi @cerkue
I tried the red arrow but it showing up in grey. Any option need to be enabled plaese let me know.
Hi @vkomarag,
If you create a measure like Red arrow=UNICHAR(128315) and put on a Visual Card or Matrix you should see a red arrow, nothing special must be enable, check your PoweBi version.
I did the same
Red arrow = UNICHAR(128315)
i got a black triangle pointing down.
Am i missing anything?
I think that it is due to the table or matrix not being able to change the colour of the text (because the unicode is a text character)
I also did see from the Microsoft Data Insights Summit that they are going to release a quick measure for Stars, so I am certain that there will be one coming soon that will do it for arrows?
Hi Dear All,
Am totaly new with power BI I want to start this amezing program for my company .I got some basic knowldge which is required fro this .I have one main issue that I want to work with my all fellow workers.Basically I want to be an admin for my company But i have no idea how can I handel this .I have in strating more tahn 20 persons I want to share data with them I try to distribute date through Row level Security but unfortunatly am not satisfied with this system .You guys have much experince with this software.It would be much appriciated if some body can guide me properly how can I handel this issue .Is ther any other system which I can use for security or I dont need.
Waiting for quick feedback.
Hi @Imranraju_786
I would suggest watching this video first by Guy in a Cube which explains what Row Level Security is
Then once you get an understanding you can then use the tutorial below to test it out and see how it works and pieces together.https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-desktop-rls/
That should get you going.
Could you please share your .pbix file with Green and Red arrow.
Hi @Shubham
It is part of the blog post right near the end.
Here is the link also: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Apxn-69XhcAmhqpv7owSIFn0ViS7ng
hi @GilbertQ
thanks for sharing but file does not has "Red" "Green" color arrows. if you got success to implement this in .pbix file then please share with us. We will levarge the same functionality.
Here is,
all arrows(UP and DOWN) are in GREEN color..
How we can get red,yellow,green circle using unichar.like traffic signal.

Little girl worries about going to school dressed as Batman, hero dad has perfect solution
LONDON — The sign of a good parent is someone who's willing to go the extra mile for their children.
A dad who's happy to pop on a Superman costume at short notice and go out in public during rush hour probably falls into this category.
A little girl called Phoebe from St Helens, UK, recently dressed up as Batman for her school's superhero-themed fancy dress day, BBC Radio Merseyside reports. Unfortunately, Phoebe lost her nerve at the last minute.
Enter hero dad Danny Arnold. In order to make his little girl feel more comfortable, Arnold busted out his Superman costume for the walk to school.
Arnold's actions went down well on Facebook.
Soon, others began sharing similar images.
"She was worried she'd be the only one," Arnold told the BBC. "I got my Superman costume on and said don't worry Batman and Superman are best friends."
Best. Dad. Ever.
