National selector John Inverarity has ruled out making an Ashes SOS call to retired Test batsmen Ricky Ponting and Simon Katich if skipper Michael Clarke's back problems continue.
Inverarity said on Tuesday he was "confident" Michael Clarke would be fit for the five Tests against England starting on 10 July. However he confirmed a shadow batsman would be called in if the skipper remained under an injury cloud.
Australia will look from within for any reinforcements, with thoughts of calls to experienced Test campaigners and in-form county championship run-makers Ponting and Katich dismissed by the head selector.
"I think they've both retired from international cricket," Inverarity told AAP. "The answer is no."
Ponting made 192 on his first-class debut for Surrey this English summer, while Katich averages over 50 this county season.
Former captain Ponting hasn't completely shut the door on a return if asked, although he's played down the prospect.
However, his former team-mate Michael Slater told the BBC Ponting would answer the call.
"If they said, 'we are desperate Ricky, we want you', I'm sure he would put his hand up," Slater said.
Inverarity said Ponting and Katich weren't on the list of standbys which is believed to include the likes of ODI captain George Bailey and Australia A middle-order batsman Steve Smith.
"We've got our players on our standby list should anything happen," Inverarity said.
"The opportunity is there [for players to score runs over coming weeks]. We're keen to see that, absolutely."
Bailey's averaging 45 in one-day cricket and is also highly regarded as a leader.
However the Tasmanian said selectors would only be interested in runs on the board.
"The other stuff doesn't matter. It's about performance," Bailey said.
"I don't think they'll be sitting there thinking about leadership and poise. They'll be thinking, if we're a batter down, who can score the most runs against what is going to be a very good bowling attack.
"It was a good start the other day [55 against England in Champions Trophy]. Of course I'd love to [play in the Ashes]. That's what I strive for is to be around that Test squad to play Test cricket."
Clarke remains in London seeking treatment from a specialist on his troublesome back and is expected to miss the entire Champions Trophy.
There's a growing sentiment Clarke could also be in doubt for the all-important Test series, but Inverarity is optimistic.
"I'm confident he'll be right for the Ashes. I'm confident but one never knows," he said.
"Nobody works harder than Michael. His preparation is extraordinary."

The Sleaze-A-Saurus knew that evil yogurt would, one day, conquer Humanity. Just a matter of time, really.
What do you get when the subversive directing and writing talents of Larry Cohen (It's Alive!, God Told Me To) are combined with "A-picture" actors Garret Morris, Danny Aiello, Micheal Moriarty and Paul Sorvino slumming it up on the set of a B-movie production?
You get one of your old pal the Sleaze-A-Saurus's all-time favorite bad movie: The Stuff (1985) which went on to become an inspired staple of late night television unleashed by Roger Corman's New World Pictures.
In the Stuff, an intelligent virus is unleashed on America in the form of a popular desert that people just can't seem to get enough of...The picture's tag-line: "Are You Eating It Or Is It Eating You?" sets the viewer up to unwittingly examine the paradigm of consumer culture while watching some very respectable special effects that include men and women regurgitating what appears to be vast oceans of intelligent marshmallows as the product they love to consume consumes them.
A former FBI agent turned industrial saboteur(!), David "Mo" Rutherford (Micheal Moriarty of Troll), is hired by the leaders of the suffering ice cream industry, as well as junk food mogul Charles W. "Chocolate Chip Charlie" Hobbs (Garrett Morris), to find out exactly what the Stuff is and destroy it.
His efforts reveal that the craze for the dessert is far deadlier and much more evil than anyone had believed – the Stuff is actually a living, parasitic, and possibly sentient organism, and it gradually takes over the brain, mutating those who eat it into bizarre zombie-like creatures before consuming them from the inside and leaving them empty shells of their former selves.
A young boy named Jason (Scott Bloom) discovers the Stuff is alive and sees how it affects his family. He gets arrested for vandalizing a supermarket in trying to smash displays of the Stuff, attracting the attention of Rutherford, who comes to his aid. Rutherford also manages to charm Nicole, an advertising executive who becomes his partner and lover when she sees the effect of the Stuff.
The trio infiltrates the distribution operation, which is actually an organized corporate effort to spread the Stuff on the basis of eliminating world hunger, and destroy the lake of Stuff with explosives. Paul Sorvino co-stars as Colonel Malcolm Grommett Spears, a retired right-wing soldier who leads a militia in battling the zombies and transmitting a civil defense message for Americans to break their addiction to the Stuff by destroying it with fire. The Stuff addiction is ended and Rutherford, Nicole, Jason, and Col. Spears are hailed as national heroes!

The first ever Dennis Eagle spreader lorry is set to be featured on the children's TV show Blue Peter on Thursday 7 February.
The new vehicle has been named Blue Peter and given a special livery to mark its adoption by the ever-popular TV show, which has been broadcast for more than 60 years.
The vehicle, which was ordered by Doncaster Council and delivered just before Christmas, features a Dennis Eagle Elite 6 chassis with low-entry cab and was bought for use as a super-safe construction tipper by day ' but also a specialist spreader for winter maintenance.
It takes 15 minutes to switch functions and is enabled by the Econ QCB system which enables a range of attachments to be added including a 6cm2 spreader unit and a snow plough.
Blue Peter presenter Lindsey Russell visited Doncaster Council with a film crew to report on how the council undertakes vital work to keep the road network safe and working in icy winter conditions.
The show itself is scheduled to be aired on Thursday February 7th at 5.30pm on the CBBC channel ' Sky channel 613 (HD) and 646, Freeview 201 and 204 (HD).
The Elite 6, which was originally designed as a refuse collection vehicle, caught the eye of Doncaster Council's Highways Operations Manager Gary Willmot because of the outstanding safety it provides in urban environments.
He said: 'When I saw the Dennis Eagle Elite 6 at the NEC commercial roadshow I wondered if the company could adjust it to suit our needs? I was already aware that the company had adapted its refuse collection chassis to be used as a tipper, l but I needed more.
'We needed to find a multi-purpose solution that would suit the varied works we provide in Doncaster. We were able to negotiate adaptations that met our specific needs. The end result provided extra room for passengers and ensured the ongoing safety of our staff out on the highway.
'We have been proud to be able to work together and create this vehicle and hope it will benefit other service providers in the future'
The vehicle is powered by a Volvo 280bhp engine and is set up in 4x2 configuration featuring full air suspension on both the front and drive axles. This ensures a smooth and efficient ride on difficult terrains for both the driver and up to three crewmembers. The ride height can also be raised at speeds up to 15kmph so off-road approach and departure angles are not compromised.
Although originally developed for the waste and recycling sector, the vehicle is becoming increasingly popular in the construction industry for which Dennis Eagle helped develop the Construction Logistics and Community Safety initiative ' better known as CLOCS ' to reduce injuries and deaths caused by work-related road risk.
As well as meeting the CLOCS nationwide standard, the Elite 6's low-entry cab provides several safety features, most noticeably the low driver-seating position and panoramic windows that allow the driver and other road users ' including cyclists ' to clearly see each other.
Dennis Eagle sales support engineer Charlie Everitt, who helped develop the vehicle to meet Doncaster Council's specific needs, said: 'It was clear from the spec that they needed a vehicle that was robust enough to cope with the worst winter conditions, which the Elite 6 takes in its stride. In addition to that, the high level of visibility and direct vision the cab provides is unrivalled and very attractive to urban truck operators in an increasing variety of niches, from waste management to construction and now winter road maintenance.
'It was an exciting new project for Dennis Eagle ' it's the first time we've fitted a gritter, snow plough or demountable body to an Elite 6 chassis ' but it seems to work beautifully and adds to the Elite 6's growing reputation for enhanced safety'

Household & DIY Hand Tools Market, Industry Analysis,Trends and Forecast 2017 – 2026
By adopting a DIY approach, consumers are executing the common upkeeps of their households through the use of manual tools. Manufacturers of hand tools have been capitalizing on this trend by offering a wide range of household & DIY hand tools. While the demand for household & DIY hand tools gains subtle traction, manufacturers are concerned with the growing market penetration of DIY power tools. Moreover, production of household & DIY hand tools is becoming complex as market players are expected to offer these tools at cheap prices. This has stepped the profit margins for manufacturers, and cost-effective procurement of raw materials continues to curtail large-scale production of household & DIY hand tools.

Change Leaders in Philanthropy Fellowship
We are now accepting applications for the 2020 fellowship program. Please submit your application before 11:59 p.m. EST on Monday, August 10, 2020.
The Change Leaders in Philanthropy Fellowship is a 10-month peer cohort program for senior executives who are responsible for developing and guiding key change efforts in their organizations.
Program participants will explore what it takes to lead transformational change through an individual, organizational and ecosystem lens. Participants will convene in-person and virtually with one another to learn, share resources and apply insights to their work in real-time.
Why is GEO leading this cohort?
This fellowship program began as a part of Grantmakers for Effective Organization's larger Leading Change in Philanthropy initiative and is a response to requests from executives to have more support, resources and guidance on how they can lead organizational change efforts. In addition to creating a supportive community where executives have the assistance and guidance they need, the program also helps participants identify best practices and recommendations for creating organizational conditions that support nonprofit success.
With this fellowship, our goals are to:
- Create a supportive community where executives have candid conversations and learn with one another about leading change within organizations to support nonprofit success.
- Increase participants' knowledge, skills and efficacy for implementing and guiding organizational change.
- Identify best practices and recommendations for creating organizational conditions that lead to smarter grantmaking. These practices, informed by fellows' experiences and related research, will be shared broadly with the field to support other leaders and build greater knowledge of leading change in philanthropy.
Who is eligible to participate?
Eligible participants in the Change Leaders in Philanthropy Fellowship are senior executives who:
- Work at grantmaking organizations that are GEO members,
- Report directly to the CEO, and
- Are responsible for leading and/or supporting change in their organizations.
Preference is for only one participant from each organization, but we are open to having two or more participants from one organization if all fit the criteria above and are working together on a change project at their organization.
What if I don't report to my CEO?
We recognize that organizations have different reporting structures. Participants should have enough organizational authority and influence to own and lead an organizational change effort.
What are the time commitment and participant expectations?
Because learning communities rely on the active participation of its members, we expect all participants to remain consistently engaged with the program. Participants must make the following commitments:
- 3 three-day, two-night retreats. Location and dates are still being determined for the 2020 fellowship.
- An estimated 3-4 hours a month, which includes preparation for and participation in monthly 90-minute video conference calls.
- Occasional one-on-one check-in calls with the program facilitators.
- Occasional interaction and discussion with colleagues as needed.
- Proactive and engaged participation throughout the fellowship that advances group learning and ensures the fellowship meets individual and collective expectations and needs.
What is the fee for the program?
For members with an annual grantmaking budget greater than $25 million in grants, the price of participation for the 2020 - 2021 cohort is $5,700. For members with an annual grantmaking budget of less than $25 million in grants, the price of participation is $3,200. Please note that fellowship participants will have to pay for travel and lodging for the retreats.
In order to remove prohibitive barriers to participation and assemble a more inclusive cohort, GEO may be able to offer a modest scholarship (up to a maximum of $2,000) to a handful of fellowship participants. Requesting financial assistance will not affect acceptance into the fellowship. Though we cannot guarantee that we will be able to meet every need, we will work to do as much as we can for all accepted participants.

Our Legal Videographers | Harrison, NJ
As for the other seasoned professionals who are a part of our team, those include experienced legal videographers. Some attorneys can't resist the temptation to cut corners when it comes to videotaping a deposition or other hearing. In reality, you want professional legal videographers who have been trained to film in a legal setting, who understand the importance of lighting and camera position, and who utilize the kind of specialized equipment that can capture the quality of audio and imagery you're looking for. Perhaps there are some occasions when you might be able to get away with cutting corners; but when things don't go exactly as planned, that's when you'll appreciate having a seasoned professional working with you—the kind of individual who has the resources to maintain a certain amount of redundancy, for example.
After all, you never want to finish a deposition and find that the video you recorded is unusable. As you know, video can be a powerful tool in a legal proceeding, particularly when matters reach the trial stage and issues are argued in front of a judge or jury. That's why if you need a court reporting service to record and transcribe your deposition, you want to make sure that it employs expert videographers utilizing state-of-the-art technology that can capture the most subtle details, including body language, facial expressions, and the kind of gestures that might be indicative of witness coaching. A single gesture or facial expression can help buttress a settlement negotiation or courtroom argument.
Also, if you require editing services, our editors are every bit the equal of our videographers in terms of quality and experience.

Excuse me while I let out a little laughter. Okay, I'm back.
UFC featherweight titleholder Conor McGregor has garnered much attention for his utilization of movement expert Ido Portal. In fact, I spoke with Portal about his coaching of "Notorious" prior to his title win over Jose Aldo at UFC 194 last December.
McGregor's opponent, Nate Diaz, has wasted no time in attacking the Irishman for playing games of "touch-butt with that dork in the park" ahead of their welterweight headliner atop the UFC 196 pay-per-view (PPV) card, taking place tonight (Sat., March 5, 2016) in Las Vegas, Nevada.
"[The guy] with the ponytail and I'm the one who ain't got no training partners? I don't think so. You seem to have it all figured out when you're fighting midgets. You got sh-t," Diaz said at the final press conference (transcribed by FOX Sports).
Both the McGregor and Diaz camps nearly came to blows following a staredown at the exact same press conference, prompting security to intervene. Well, someone better hold Portal back because the Israeli fitness coach is about to bust some heads.
So I still didn't get it, Nate Diaz, first it's you who were doing some movement training already back in the day but…
Posted by Ido Portal on Thursday, March 3, 2016
Portal has been in the corner of McGregor dating back to his second-round knockout of Chad Mendes at UFC 189 in July 2015. It's completely within reach to say Portal has played a role in the success of the Dubliner, but anything more than that, I'm just not sure.
Portal claims to see a stark difference between the 145-pound version of McGregor and the 170-pound version. Time to see whether or not the steak diet produces the same ….View full article

Personalized property management
Thrillist believes in letting the world know what's ours. Unfortunately, standing constant vigil over our possessions can get tiring; and, while the stench of our pee is bio-chemically unique, most people just don't have the skills to differentiate it from their own. Searing our mark with a branding iron, on the other hand, is unmistakable, permanent, and most importantly, fun. To secure your own customized branding iron, Thrillist suggests commissioning one from Ranch Irons, specialists in the art of personalized property management.For $199 or less, Ranch Irons can implement virtually any design into a stainless steel branding head: Your name. Your mom. Even a depiction of Scott Baio during a moment of deep, unguarded sadness. Once you settle on your design, you can accumulate possessions comfortably, secure in the knowledge that your brand will notify borrowers and thieves of the certainty of bloody retribution.Thrillist ordered a "Scowling Mr. T" brand. We use it to:
- Pity the fool.
- Decorate other peoples' children and pets.
- Personalize steaks at parties, then personalize the face of anyone who dares ignore our mark.
- Designate everything in the fridge as our own -- including the "Special Homesick Meatloaf" our roommate had his mom ship him when he learned he had herpes.
Sometimes Thrillist takes our branding too far. Like when we drunkenly threaten to brand our women, only to have them mace us and run off with the few unbranded objects we have left. But then we just squint tearfully at everything else we own, looking for that angry, mohawked head. When we find it glaring back at us, we think: "Damn, it sure is good to know that all this crap belongs to me."

Metal tree
The parish has luckily set up a very handy alternative tree in the middle of the arable fields between our village and Sontheim. As there isn't a wooden tree for miles around, it fulfils an essential purpose. The parish has also gone so far as to attach a doggy poo bag dispenser and rubbish bin.
The post also has a blue sign showing the area is a "water protection area" as it is the area where the parish water supply comes from a deep well. The designation means there are restrictions as to what the land owners can do, in particular here, what the farmers can do with fertilizer, slurry, insecticides etc.
Walking back to the car, saw the police had set up a mobile speed trap, at the point we would get on a normal road. Drove slowly past them but they were looking down the main road and as feared didn't see my pass to drive without a seatbelt. As I then turned on to the main road just three meters from them, one of the two officers spotted the law breaking and was in such a state of shock at the cheek that he couldn't react. However I stopped on the other side and flashed the pass. He laughed and said he couldn't believe his eyes that someone could be so stupid.

Stats: Firmino closing in on goal landmark
Roberto Firmino is nearing a goalscoring milestone for Liverpool.
The No.9 goes into Sunday's away game at Cardiff City two short of recording his 50th Premier League strike for the Reds.
A second-half header against FC Porto in midweek took Firmino's overall goal tally for the club to 66 in 189 appearances.
Read on for more pre-match facts and figures from LFC statistician Ged Rea…
Xherdan Shaqiri scored his first goal for Liverpool in a 4-1 victory at Anfield in the reverse fixture back in October - a game in which Virgil van Dijk captained the Reds for the first time.
That was the third Premier League meeting between the clubs, with those fixtures having produced 18 goals. The Reds won the two games in 2013-14 3-1 and 6-3 respectively.
That 6-3 success in March 2014 was Liverpool's last trip to the Cardiff City Stadium. Luis Suarez scored a hat-trick that day, with Martin Skrtel (two) and Daniel Sturridge also on the mark.
There has never been a 0-0 draw in 33 games played between the sides in all competitions and the Reds are two goals away from registering 50 in league matches against Cardiff.
Liverpool have won 26 league games so far this season - in only three previous campaigns have they won more. They won 27 in the Second Division in 1904-05 (34 games) and in 1961-62 (42 games). Only once in the top flight have they recorded more victories (30 in 1978-79).
Thirty-four Premier League outings this term have seen the Reds amass 85 points. In only nine seasons (converted to three points for a win) have they totalled more, and a win on Sunday would see them hit their joint-fourth-highest ever points tally (based on three points for a win).
Jürgen Klopp's team are unbeaten in their last 17 games in all competitions, winning 12 and drawing five. They have won eight in a row since the goalless stalemate with Everton in early March.
In seven of their last 10 fixtures, Liverpool have scored at least once in the final 10 minutes.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Cardinals are promoting RB Bronson Hill to their active roster with RB Kerwynn Williams suffering cracked ribs last weekend.
- The Cardinals announced that they've signed LB Gabe Martin off the Saints' practice squad and waived S Harlan Miller and OL Vinston Painter.
Hill, 24, wound up signing on with the Bills as an undrafted free agent out of Eastern Michigan back in August of 2015. He lasted just a few weeks in Buffalo before he signed on to the Bears practice squad at the start of the 2015 season.
Hill had brief stints with the Dolphins, Saints and Bengals before signing on to the Jaguars' practice squad at the start of last year. Unfortunately, Jacksonville elected to cut Hill loose shortly after this year's draft.
The Vikings signed Hill to a contract during the preseason and later added him to their practice squad at the start of the season. The Cardinals signed him to their taxi squad last month.
In 2016, Hill appeared in three games and rushed for 11 yards on two carries and no touchdowns.

How to change the piezo igniter on a Jetboil Flash
Disclaimer:The guide below is based on my own experience of performing this task. I am not an engineer, nor do I claim this to be an approved method of performing this task. Anybody following this guide does so at their own risk, and at risk of invalidating the warranty of their product/s
I eventually found a replacement piezo at the Cotswold Outdoor store in Betws y Coed. As always, I find the staff at this particular store extremely helpful and knowledgable! Whilst working out how to replace the igniter unit I thought it would be worthwhile taking some photos and making this into a tutorial blog post…
A word of warning here – there are two type of spare igniter available for the Jetboil: the older type for the PCS/GCS and newer type for the Flash/Sumo/Zip etc. They look similar, but the one for the Flash has a flexible white wire instead of a stiff ceramic tube.
Step 1 – Disassemble Burner
The burner assembly has two main halves – a metal ring with attached burner, and plastic lower moulding with gas control valve and igniter housing.
The burner (make sure it is cold and disconnected from gas canister!!) can be pushed down and rotated in an anti-clockwise direction (grip plastic housing securely). The burner will separate from the lower control valve (the connector is a little like a bayonet light bulb fitting)and then the plastic upper ring will come away from the lower plastic housing.
The white/grey wire will then hopefully slide out of the ceramic tube that runs through the burner unit.
Step 2 – Remove old igniter
The old igniter cable will probably be quite brittle, so take care. You may need the old cable to calculate the length of the replacement one.
Step 3 – Prepare and fit new igniter
The new igniter will have an insulating sheath all the way to the end, unlike the one you have just removed. I laid them side by side an calculated how much insulating sheath to remove. The sheathing can be removed carefully with a sharp knife, but be very careful not to nick or damage the wire underneath.
Fit the igniter module in the plastic housing, ensuring there is a positive 'click' from the two plastic retaining clips.
Step 4 – Reassemble unit
Once you have stripped the wire, inserted the new igniter and cleaned out any crud then gently thread the wire up the ceramic tube in the burner.
Finally, bend over the top 4mm or so of the exposed wire end so it just overhangs the edge of the ceramic tube. By bending the white wire as it exits the ceramic tube underneath you can make sure this doesn't move around too much. Make sure no exposed parts of the wire touch any of the metal parts of the burner – the way it works relies on there being a gap between the end of the wire and the surface of the burner.
Step 5 – Test ignite
If you now press the igniter you should see that familiar blue spark that shows it is working properly. Then attach a canister and test ignite.

Once I promised myself that I would keep up with all the "technological innovations". Of course, it is not possible that the clearest example was my ignorance of the creature called TikTok. Do you know?
TikTok is a social platform that allows you to create short, some seconds videos using a very convenient mobile app. You may ask how this differs from Snapchata, YouTube, IGTV (!) and similar? The answer, however, comes as little surprise: form.
How to get Free Musical.ly Followers?
More information you get on this website : https://freemusicallyfollowers.online/
TikTok is primarily vertical video*, which arises from an extensive music database, in the system, various components (such as filters or duets), as well as trends and problems created by the company, the participating community of young people. But before we get to it, a brief history. The Tiktok app was created in 2016 in China and functioned under the name Douyin. Two years later Tictoc took over and teamed up with musical.ly, who was famous for primarily lipsincing**. This led to TikTok very quickly "acquiring" more than 500 million users worldwide (data from September 2018).

100In1Day Global
100In1Day was started in 2012 by a group of design students in Bogotá, Colombia who intended to launch six urban interventions that would maximize the potential of their city.
Over beers they decided to be more ambitious and launch 100 urban interventions that would take place in one day.
On May 26, 2012, over 250 urban interventions took place in Bogotá, and a phenomenon was born. It has since spread to over 31 cities around the world.

text: Hi all! Im new to the US from Canada, and have had several people tell me their opinions of the new Obamacare program, but none of them worked in healthcare. Coming from Quebec, where healthcare is free (well, if you dont count the stupidly high taxes), and healthcare workers are overworked from hospitals being understaffed and overfilled by patients coming in with everything from a hangover or the sniffles and up. Im wondering if anyone here has noticed a difference in your work conditions, or what kind of a change you expect to come about as Obamacare is implemented more fully. Thanks for the input, I guess Im just trying to get an idea of what to expect when I start working! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Complete Story
In Wake of Deadly Shootings, Nonprofits Aid Local Communities
The Dayton Foundation has created a fund to assist those impacted
Two deadly mass shootings in different states over the weekend created much debate, mourning, and discussion—and, on a local level, ways for nonprofits to step up and help however possible.
In El Paso, Texas, where a 21-year-old man attacked a Walmart on Saturday in a suspected domestic terrorism incident that killed nearly two dozen people, one organization is assisting in a big way: Vitalant, a nonprofit network of community blood service providers, has accepted hundreds of donations from local residents.
While the organization has reached capacity for walk-ins in Texas, it is still accepting appointments, while regional arms are also assisting with efforts. The organization is also working with Lyft, which will offer free trips to Vitalant facilities in the El Paso area to anyone donating blood.

The Lowdown: Christmas day dining
Don't the vast majority of restaurants close on Christmas day?
Not anymore, apparently. According to OpenTable, 2016 saw a 43% increase in bookings on Christmas Day compared to the year before. The online bookings provider says it is probably down to families preferring to spend more quality time with each other.
Or maybe no one could decide whose job it was to peel the spuds...
Actually, maybe no one wanted spuds at all. OpenTable also found that although the classic turkey dinner was still the most popular choice on Christmas day, Italian, Indian and French cuisines were all in the top choices for festive bookings between 24-26 December.
Curry? Isn't that what the turkey leftovers get made into the next day?
Not at Dishoom. The Bombay café concept restaurant is serving shared meals to emphasise community bonds, with a turkey raan at the centre. A whole turkey leg is cooked slowly with spices, and served with Bombay potatoes, masala winter greens and cranberry chutney.
No sprouts? It's hardly Christmas without them…
If it's sprouts you want, you could try Palatino's festive menu, which features antipasto of sprout, pecorino and finocchiona (fennel salami), followed by goose leg, and rounding off with panettone bread and butter pudding.
So we're guessing we should leave the vegans at home, then?
Not necessarily. Essence Cuisine have got them covered. The Shoreditch-based vegan restaurant is serving a chia seed caviar on a cracker with smoked carrot 'gravlax' and 'faux gras' (whatever that is), as well as a chestnut and porcini stroganoff with squash tagliatelle and walnut parmesan. Chelsea's Rabbit and its sister restaurant The Shed are serving a vegan menu including endive with artichoke mud and thyme; beetroot crisps with pear and sorrel; and oak smoked potato with quince.
Yikes. We expect you'll have to pay a little extra to book a meal on a day almost everybody besides the kitchen gets a day off?
In some places, you can expect a hefty price tag. Christmas lunch will run you £269 per person at Galvin at Windows and a whopping £375 per person at Marcus Wareing's eponymous restaurant at The Berkeley Hotel. Most of those do include a glass of bubbly, mind.
Think we might put that M&S turkey order in after all…
If you're short on cash but still want the whole roast, Soho crisp-and-dip specialist HipChips will be serving a whole Christmas dinner in dip form. Think Charlie and the Chocolate Factory's three course dinner only with a Yuletide theme. The line-up includes smoked salmon and pickled cucumbers, a traditional turkey dinner and a sweet Christmas pudding and brandy sauce dip.
As long as you can eat them whilst getting drunk on Bailey's, arguing about which film to watch and losing at Monopoly, we're in.

Do you feel stuck in your path to personal and spiritual growth?
I don't even pretend to try to fit in.
I honestly believe our spiritual happiness lies in being our most authentic.
Fitting in is overrated.😜
Even if you get really good at it, whatever you think you win as a result isn't really a prize worth winning. So let me say this: Fitting out is hard, but fitting in is harder. You know that already, because there have been plenty of times in your life where you've stood at the crossroads of trying to fit in or be yourself.
*🦄 Are you longing to move forward with authenticity? (You're tired of holding back who you really are.)
*🐚 Do you feel stuck in your path to personal and spiritual growth?
*🔥 Are you afraid of coming fully into your power?
*💔 Is your inability to finish healing the cause of emotional reactions like anger, fear, anxiety or confusion?
I would love the opportunity to hold space for you.
Maybe you've been seeking that place where you could "fit out" and strengthen your most authentic self. Well, let's do that together. It's my reason for being.

Especially you fellow Blue Rays, and those of you hiding in the "spiritual closet." I am here to support you coming into your magic and sharing your message with the world. ✨🌟✨
❤ We can do this in a One-Person Transformational Retreat.❤
Let me customize a personal retreat just for YOU. Over the last 10 years I have helped many people like you.
🌈 My private retreats are an adventure into the soul, supporting your spiritual growth by removing stuck obstacles, and teaching you new healing modalities (some you likely have never tried before.) I will help you unlearn self-sabotage and replace it with self-love.
Think of this as is a Soulful VisionQuest or a modern day "walk about" to reconnect to deepest self-love and inner harmony. 🦋
***All done in a beautiful place such as Italy, Bali, Ecuador, Australia or other high vibration locations for 3-4 nights.
My twenty years as a Transformation Mentor, Light Leader, and Spiritual Teacher help me to know your story and help you re-frame it in a way where peace and inner joy again become your narrative. 🙏 You re-remember to love yourself, love your day, love your life!

I'm afraid to even look at the date of the last blog. I know it's been a long time. Even here, so far away from everything, it is easy to get caught up with daily life. The quiet moments to reflect are few and far between these days, and once the rhythm of writing about ones day is broken, it is so hard to get back again.
When I left off, I was in the throes of paperwork madness in an effort to export coffee to Chicago. There were two more days of nightmares to wade through including a perky drug-sniffing Cocker Spaniel named Bingo at the airport. When the clerk at the TACA freight office stamped my air-bill and handed me the final and last document, it was hard to believe it was all over. The boxes flew the next day and arrived in Chicago on the 4th of July. The coffee has all but sold out, and I have another order.
I was spent after a month of learning the ropes of exporting which probably had something to do with the silence these past weeks. That, and a very nasty cold which has had me down for three weeks. Yesterday, for the first time, I recognized myself. This is not a rabbit hole I wish to fall down into again.
Does anyone remember those electric fly swatters that looks like a tennis racket? I used to have one when I lived in Chicago and they were great during the summer for frying up loads of mosquitos. I found one down here last year, used it for a while, and then forgot about it. I pulled it out yesterday to see if it still worked and then left it by my desk. Well...my $3.50 purchase sort of saved my life tonight.
I was going through my closet while hunting down a particular black dress to wear tomorrow for my cacao meeting. I have about 8 black dresses and I was flipping through them, I noticed a grayish spot on one of the dresses. I went back to it and was about to rub my finger on it when I realized it wasn't a spot at all, but a very large black scorpion. I grabbed a flashlight and my handy-dandy electric tennis racket/bug fryer and yelled out for Vigil and Evers in case I wasn't successful. If I got bit, I really wasn't sure if I could drive myself to the hospital before whatever was going happen to me would begin. I nudged the scorpion and he fell onto the racket with my finger pushing the "on" button. He danced and sparked, his nasty little tail swinging around madly, and then he was still. Evers and Vigil were so amused by it all, they wanted to look for another one, just like kids. I gave the racket and jerking scorpion to them to get rid of outside. I told Evers and he, Juana, and I are going to take everything out of the closet and give it a good shake tomorrow afternoon.
There has been an influx of critters, but only because I bought a shop-vac and had Evers vacuum the attic and then spray. The critters fled their cozy quarters and headed downstairs. I had not thought to check the closet for new tenants until tonight.

Battle Wizard (1977)
Directed by Pao Hsueh-liGenres - Action | Sub-Genres - Martial Arts | Run Time - 73 min. | Countries - Hong Kong | MPAA Rating - NR
Share on
Synopsis by Jonathan Crow
Pao Hsueh-li spins this wild, eye-poppingly bizarre kung-fu period epic adapted from Jin Yong's 2,000-page tome Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. Two decades after getting his legs whacked off by Prince Tuan Ching-tun -- who used a rare Yang Chi technique that fires bolts of lightening from one's fingertips -- the nefarious Wong Po-yen seeks vengeance on the Prince's son, Tuan Yi (Danny Lee), an earnest young scholar with no discernible martial arts skills. One day while strolling in the country, Tuan Yi happens upon Cheung Ling-ar, an unusual lass who can wield snakes into weapons that can explode heads. When Wong's men catch up to them, Ling-ar tells Tuan Yi to find the legendary swordswoman and Yang Chi master Mou Wan-ching (Tin Lei) who has the habit of killing every man she meets. Because Tuan Yi told her of impending danger, Wan-ching spares his life. He returns the favor when she gets a near-lethal dose of poison from a demon. When he drinks the blood of a giant killer snake, Tuan Yi is suddenly in possession of fantastic kung-fu abilities. Later, Tuan Yi and Wan-ching's wedding is thwarted when Wong -- who is now ambulatory thanks to a pair of metal stilts -- captures the couple with plans to serve them up to his giant man-eating, kung-fu fighting monkey.

Words by Adam WardSeptember 17, 2016
In this post, I'll will give a brief overview of what Composer is and how you can start using it in your projects. I will also run through an example of how we combine Composer into our WordPress development at Atomic Smash.
Composer is a PHP dependency management tool. This means it can manage any packages, plugins, libraries, themes etc that you require for your project.
Imagine you are working on a project and pushing your code to a repository, you don't want to also store all of your projects dependencies in your repo too. This is where Composer comes in – it allows you to declare all of your dependencies in one file. When another Developer starts to work on your project, all they need to do is clone your repo and run Composer on their computer to install all of the dependencies required and at the versions you specify for your project.
This can seem a little confusing at first but it's almost certainly something you will require and encounter at some point as a Developer. I'll run through an example and hopefully the advantages of using Composer will become much clearer.
In order to start using Composer in your project, it must first be installed on your machine – the Composer doc's do a good job of explaining how to get started – getcomposer.org
To use Composer in your project, you first need to create a 'composer.json' file in the root of your directory. This JSON file is where you declare what dependencies you require and even the version number.
# Make a new directory and cd in to it
$ mkdir project-example && cd project-example
# Create your composer.json file
$ touch composer.json
If you open the composer.json file we just created in your text editor you can start to list out the dependencies your project requires. Here's an example of how to do this…
"name" : "example-project",
"description" : "Composer file for my amazing website",
"authors" : [
"name" : "Adam Ward",
"email" : "[email protected]",
"homepage": "http://www.example-project.com/"
"require" : {
"monolog/monolog" : ">=1.20.0"
Monolog is a example of a PHP package we are declaring to Composer, that we need for this project. Monolog is a package that sends your logs to files, sockets, inboxes, databases and various web services. You can find more packages at https://packagist.org/explore/
Now we are ready to install Composer within our project. Head back to your Terminal window and enter the following…
# Make sure you're in the project-example directory
$ composer install
Composer will now run in your terminal window and install any of the packages we have declared within our composer.json file. Great! We're up and running with Composer. Now hopefully you have a better understanding of how Composer works, lets have a look at how to use it with WordPress.
I am assuming that you're already comfortable with WordPress and how the file structure works. There's a couple of key things to remember when working with Composer –
Composer can only install dependencies into a project if they have a composer.json file. This is an issue, as most of the plugins in the WordPress plugin directory do not have a composer.json file. Luckily, the team at Outlandish have created a mirror of the WordPress Plugin directory called https://wpackagist.org/, which means we can declare any WordPress plugin in the official plugin directory.
Another thing to remember, WordPress itself can be installed via Composer and declared as a dependency. WordPress also doesn't have a composer.json file in it's core, which means we need a workaround for this too. There's a few WordPress clones already out there with a composer.json file added, probably the most common of these and the one we use at Atomic Smash is https://github.com/johnpbloch/wordpress.
It's become fairly common practice to install WordPress in a sub directory. Not everyone prefers this method but I find it much easier to keep the core WordPress files separate from my theme files. This method does mean you need to make a couple of changes to your root directory, which I won't go into in this post but if you do prefer installing WordPress in it's own directory, you'll need to add the 'extra' declaration, as shown in the example below, which tells Composer where to install WordPress.
Below is an updated version of our composer.json file, which is set up to work using the methods above.
"name" : "example-project",
"description" : "Composer file for my amazing website",
"authors" : [
"name" : "Adam Ward",
"email" : "[email protected]",
"homepage": "http://www.example-project.com/"
"type" : "project",
"repositories": [
"type": "composer",
"url" : "http://wpackagist.org"
"config" : {
"vendor-dir": "vendor",
"secure-http" : false
"require" : {
"johnpbloch/wordpress" : ">=4.2",
"wpackagist-plugin/wordpress-seo" : "*",
"wpackagist-plugin/simple-page-ordering" : "*",
"wpackagist-plugin/wp-mail-smtp" : "*"
"extra" : {
"wordpress-install-dir" : "wp"
Here's a breakdown of what we're doing in the above example –
Depending on your experience with WordPress and whether or not you're familiar with Composer, it could feel like there's a huge amount to take in from this post. Even if you feel like this method is a bit overkill for your current setup/project, it's still worth getting to grips with Composer and trying it out in a couple of projects as it's very likely you'll need it in the future.

China is the world's largest soybean market. Their biggest exporter: the United States.
But a potential 25 percent tariffs on American soybeans means there may be an opening in China for Canadian producers.
"Soybeans is an export market for us, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a 100 per cent export, so if we have more opportunities it never hurts to get to new markets or more markets," Dustin Klym, the owner of Condie Seed said.
Soybean has exploded across Saskatchewan. In 2016, just 250,000 acres were being seeded. This year, it's expected to be 800,000 acres. Of the $2.5 billion of Canadian soybeans exported last year, $250 million of that came from Saskatchewan.
"It's an expanding crop because it's something new and interesting, and a lot of people are trying to grow it. It felts well for a lot of agri-nomic issues that we have currently," Klym said.
Just because there's potential to expand into China, doesn't mean Saskatchewan producers will be able to take advantage.
"It certainly produces opportunities for Saskatchewan producers, but we also have to be on the defensive, in that the United States will be looking for other markets to ship those soybeans, and will be competing with us in those other markets, most notably Japan," explained Chris Dekker, CEO of Saskatchewan Trade and Export Partnership.
Canadian producers are approaching the developments with cautious optimism, while there's interest in growing and new markets, Canada is still a small player on the world stage; Brazil, Argentina, and of course America dwarf Canadian exports.
Though the tariffs aren't official yet, Dekker says they could still impact seeding decisions.

With a 10 year old, who's entering middle school soon, I am in well preparation for the changes that will be coming along. One thing I remember during the 6th grade was I was caring more about my appearance. My son has a pretty simple cook. Gray fitted pants, high-top vans, and a graphic tee. My son will never go to school in basketball shorts (God Almighty, Hallelujah!!!)
With my pre-teen turning the corner, I know he'll probably what to add to his current wardrobe. I love being my the personal stylist to my children, but they are entitled to their own style. So I stumbled upon HotKeyGaming.
From hoodies, hats, and even phone cases, this site has apparel for the simple minimalistic gamer, who loves graphic tees, but just toned down, where it's not too crazy.
If you have some young boys, who are in need for some time graphic tees. HotKeyGaming is the place to shop!

Understanding Vein Health
What are varicose veins and what are the causes?
Varicose (VAR-i-kos) veins are swollen, twisted veins that you can see just under the surface of the skin. These veins usually occur in the legs. That's because standing and walking upright increases the pressure in the veins of your lower body. However, they also can form in other parts of your body.
The primary predisposing factor for varicose veins is heredity. Other causes of varicose veins include aging, prolonged standing, obesity, leg injury or prior deep or superficial vein thrombosis. Women are more likely than men to suffer from varicose and spider veins and have a 50 percent chance of developing them in their lifetime. Varicose veins may result from increased hormone levels, blood volume and pressure from the enlarged uterus during pregnancy. Varicose veins that develop during pregnancy generally improve without medical treatment within 3-12 months after delivery.
What are symptoms of varicose veins?
Varicose veins are a common condition. Some symptoms include leg swelling, aching, pain, and itching over the vein area. Severe varicose veins can lead to wound formation.
Signs you may have varicose veins include:
- Veins that are dark purple or blue in color
- Veins that appear twisted and bulging; often like cords on your legs
- When painful signs and symptoms occur, they may include:
- An achy or heavy feeling in your legs
- Burning, throbbing, muscle cramping and swelling in your lower legs
- Worsened pain after sitting or standing for a long time
- Itching around one or more of your veins
- Bleeding from varicose veins
- A painful cord in the vein with red discoloration of the skin
- Color changes, hardening of the vein, inflammation of the skin or skin ulcers near your ankle, which can mean you have a serious form of vascular disease that requires medical attention
How are varicose veins treated?
Varicose veins are treated with lifestyle changes and medical procedures. The goals of treatment are to relieve symptoms, prevent complications, and improve appearance.
Medical procedures are done either to remove varicose veins or to close them. Removing or closing varicose veins usually doesn't cause problems with blood flow because the blood starts moving through other veins. Fortunately, treatment usually doesn't mean a hospital stay or a long, uncomfortable recovery. Thanks to less invasive procedures, varicose veins can generally be treated on an outpatient basis.
What are the long term effects of varicose veins?
Leaving varicose veins untreated can lead to a variety of serious medical conditions. Most patients with varicose veins report symptoms of itchiness, fatigue, pain and discomfort in the legs, and swelling of the skin. In most cases, these symptoms will only get worse if the patient chooses not to see a medical professional. Individuals that suffer from the condition should schedule a consultation with a board certified Vascular surgeon to learn more about their specific condition, treatment options and recommendations.
Once these varicose veins are removed what is going to happen to my overall health?
Since none of the treatment methods involve large incisions, there are no sutures to worry about. Patients will need to wear bandages and/or compression stockings for a few days following the treatment, but there is very little downtime involved. Most people are back at work within several days. Though there are few activity restrictions after varicose vein procedures, your board certified vascular surgeon will give you specific instructions about how to care for yourself properly following treatment. Your physician may have short term lifting, exercise, or travel limitations based on your history and procedure(s) performed. Click here for post-surgery FAQ
What should I expect when I come in for a consult at the CSA Vein Center of Mid-Missouri?
You can expect to be seen by one of the surgeons who trained in the area of vein diagnosis and treatment. For the office examination, you might also see our Nurse Practitioner who has been trained in the evaluation and diagnosis of vein problems. Our initial goal in is to identify and understand the causes of a patient's leg pain and swelling, and to inform them of the available treatment options. Whether or not you are bothered by the cosmetics of varicose veins, you should schedule a consultation to learn about all of your treatment options by a board certified and skilled vascular surgeon. Sometimes tests, such as an ultrasound, are done to find out the extent of the problem and to rule out other disorders.
First make sure any patient forms including medical history are filled out to the best of your ability before your scheduled appointment begins.
Physical Examination
During your appointment, our board certified vascular surgeon or nurse practitioner will examine specific areas of concern. This initial screening focuses on your family and vascular history, leg and vein symptoms, and to identify the affected areas. In order to properly examine problem areas, we will have you wear a pair of shorts or change into a hospital gown we provide.
The ultrasound is an important step in gathering information about the extent of the damage to your veins. This highly specialized examination provides our physicians with a precise map of your venous insufficiencies (i.e. damaged veins, blood clots and incompetent valves so we can tailor procedures specifically for you. This exam allows us to be able to pinpoint the exact cause of your vein related concerns and any leg pain you may be having. A portion of this exam will be done with you standing.
Physician Interpretation
Lastly, our board certified specialist will review the ultrasound findings and customize a treatment plan that will have you feeling better as quickly as possible. During this doctor visit, you'll discuss your diagnosis, treatment options, procedures and post-procedure instructions if applicable. One of our office staff can also walk you through details of cost, insurance criteria and answer any questions you may have.
What should I expect during my varicose vein procedure?
Before the procedure starts, we will obtain a set of vital signs. Your entire leg will be prepped or cleaned with a cold orange solution that smells a bit like rubbing alcohol. Your leg will then be covered in sterile drapes. Depending upon your preference, we will talk to you as much or as little about what to expect and when to expect it throughout the procedure. If you are having a laser procedure, the surgeon will start by using an ultrasound and cool gel to view your veins. During this time the room lights are turned down and most patients respond well to the calming environment this creates. Once the vein has been studied and accessed, the surgeon will insulate the vein with numbing medication, usually from around the knee to the groin. This process usually takes several minutes. Once this is completed, the laser is used to close down the vein. Most patients do not feel anything during the laser treatment, which takes about 2 minutes. This procedure is performed through a tiny incision in the leg
Once the laser portion of the procedure is completed, we will start performing the microphlebectomies if required. (For patients who do not require a laser treatment, this paragraph will describe the microphlebectomy portion of the procedure.) The microphlebectomies will interrupt portions of the visible varicose veins that sit just under the skin. The surgeon will inject numbing medication in the area of the incision(s) and then remove portions of the vein through a very small incision. You should not expect to feel anything painful once the area is numb, but it is common to feel pressure and "tugging." The incisions are too small for a suture, so steri-strip or butterfly bandages will be applied over each tiny incision. The number of microphlebectomies required will depend upon your specific situation. You may have anywhere from 1 to over 30 tiny incisions, but most patients will have somewhere between 10-15.
At the conclusion of the microphlebectomies, dressings will be placed on your leg and then your leg will be wrapped in an ace bandage, usually from the toes to the groin.
What are my sedation options for varicose vein procedures and what is the recovery process?
The choice of anesthesia is a decision made between the patient and the surgeon based upon your individual preference. In general, medical care and surgery is designed to be minimally invasive, including reduction of risks and down time. This is very much the case in vein procedures which most often can be performed fully ambulatory under local anesthesia. Click here for sedation options.
Once my varicose veins are treated can they return?
The same varicose veins will not return once removed. However, new varicosities can form. Patients who have venous disease are prone to future vein problems. Therefore, even though we remove the symptomatic veins you have today, that underlying propensity for new symptomatic varicose veins to develop over time is still there.
What makes the CSA Vein Center of Mid-Missouri different?
At the vein center of Mid-Missouri, you will be evaluated and treated by a Board Certified Vascular Surgeon, which is not an option at every vein center. You will be greated by friendly and highly qualified staff throughout your experience including the certified technicians in our Vascular lab and skilled crew in the ambulatory surgery center. Our entire team, including our billing specialists, are prepared with the experience and know how to help you every step of the way.
Will my insurance pay for varicose vein procedure?
Ask the billing team at the Vein Center of Mid-Missouri if insurance will cover any of the medical cost for your treatment. If done purely for cosmetic reasons, the treatment may not be covered. However, insurance companies do recognize that varicose veins are a medical condition that requires medical treatment. Some insurances may require a trial of conservative management such as use of compression stockings, usually for around three months. If this therapy does not improve your symptoms and you choose to move forward with a surgical treatment, our staff will help handle the insurance requirements for you, including any prior authorizations and letters of medical necessity. Every effort will be made to work with your insurance company to arrange your procedure as soon as possible. For your planning, you can expect around 4-6 weeks for this process to be completed prior to insurance approval to schedule the procedure.
To Make an Appointment
Your initial consultation gives you the opportunity to meet our team, learn more about our services and find out which treatment options will best meet your needs. To schedule a prompt appointment with one of our board-certified vascular surgeons, please call Vein Center of Mid-Missouri at 573-256-1541

Maria Ressa: My only crime is to be an independent journalist
Rappler said the arrest warrant was issued by the Pasig Regional Trial Court Branch 265 on Thursday. It was served the moment she deplaned at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport upon her arrival from San Francisco.
The media agency said she is being transported to the Pasig RTC where she is expected to post bail.
'Obviously, this is yet another abuse of my rights, I'm being treated like a criminal'
Prosecutor Randy Esteban said Rappler's executives were being charged for allowing a foreign company to intervene in the management and operation of Rappler Inc. and Rappler Holdings Corp. in violation of the Anti-Dummy Law. Only Filipino citizens can own media entities in the country.
Former and incumbent executives of Rappler posted a ₱90,000 bail on Wednesday, but Ressa was not able to post bail as she was out of the country.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) earlier revoked Rappler's certificate of incorporation, or its license to do business. The SEC said Rappler violated constitutional limitations on ownership and control of mass media entities because of funds coming from its foreign investor Omidyar Network.
Owned by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar, the Omidyar Network has since donated its $1.5-million (around ₱78 million) investment to Rappler's 14 Filipino managers in a bid to resolve foreign ownership issues.
Rappler has maintained that its foreign investors have no control over the media outfit's operations. It has decried the legal challenges as harassment and a clampdown on the free press- which obviously is not the case here.
Based on Rappler's articles of incorporation and by-laws, its funders, in which Omidyar is one of them, has the right to block or approve any changes Rappler makes within the company. A clear violation of the Philippine constitution.
Ressa is out on a ₱100,000 bail after being arrested for a cyber libel case involving a story published on its online news platform May 2012, months before the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 was passed. The news agency's chief earlier posted bail for her tax evasion charges.
