The weather is glorious, the oranges are sweet, and the countdown is on for the 2019 Regional Australia Bank, Bingara Happy Days Orange Festival.
This year's event will have festival goers dancing in the street as it again takes on the "Happy Days" theme, celebrating the nostalgia and music of the 50s and 60s.
The weekend of events commences on Friday, July 5 at 12pm, with the annual Orange Picking Ceremony on Finch Street, in front of the Bingara RSL club.
The trees have produced a bumper crop of fruit this year which is sure to meet the approval of even the most discerning orange connoisseur.
The 'Orange Police' (aka Bingara Central School students) have done a fantastic job of keeping the oranges safe and secure for the picking, and have recently placed signs on each of the trees informing visitors of the sacred Orange Picking tradition.
On Friday night the fun and frivolity kicks off with a special screening of 'Grease' at the Roxy Theatre, with all funds raised going towards the 2020 festival.
The fundraiser will be a night the whole family can enjoy with 50s fun for everyone!
The Roxy café next door will be serving retro diner classics such as milkshakes and hotdogs, and participants are encouraged to sing and dance along during this nostalgic film classic.
For those who really want to get into the spirit of the evening, there will be prizes for the best dressed, so don your leather jackets, poodle skirts or jeans with turned up cuffs.
On Saturday, the retro fun continues with vintage car and fashion displays, screenings of 50s and 60s documentaries and TV shows in the historic Roxy Theatre.
There will be Rock n Roll music to get your toes tapping with performances by 'Darlin and The Midnight Delights', Shelley Minson and Band and the fabulous Miss Ilona Harker, as well as kid's rides and entertainment, and rock n roll dance demonstrations.
For those with a will of stone and a stomach of steel, don't miss the Orange Festival milkshake slurping competition. There are three age categories: 8-11 years, 12-16 years and 17-97 years.
The competition kicks off at 1pm on the main stage. The contestant to slurp through their milkshake in the fastest time will be crowned the winner.
Following the festival, the Bingara RSL club will be hosting a 50s and 60s Dance Hall from 7.00pm until late with legendry retro DJ Grizzly Adams, as well as dance demonstrations and instruction from the New England Rockabilly Rockers.
Even if you have two left feet, Grizzly guarantees he will get you rocking. The fun doesn't end there: Sunday, July 7 will see the Bingara Sporting Club host a retro beers, bowls and barbecue from 1.30pm.
Join in for a relaxing afternoon of lawn bowls with participants encouraged to once again don their safari suit or their leathers and go retro for the afternoon.
The final event in this action packed weekend is a live music and dance cabaret at the Roxy Theatre. Swing through the retro eras with this riotous performance featuring the fabulously sassy, sugary delights from Candy Shop Show Australia.
Sugar, Sugar is a musical journey with a twist, which plays homage to some of the best artists of the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s.
With colourful high-energy dance numbers, beautiful vocals and plenty of audience interaction it will be one hell of a party and a fantastic way to cap off a great weekend.

The NCAA announced Sunday evening that Florida State would be one of 16 teams to host a regional in the 2016 NCAA Tournament.
The Seminoles are 37-19 (16-10 ACC) so far this season and had a strong showing in the ACC Tournament winning three games and reaching the Championship Game, before falling to Clemson 18-13. After losing four of their last five conference series to end the regular season, FSU put their hosting chances in doubt heading into the post-season. The 3-1 week in Durham, NC likely helped save the Seminoles' outlook with wins over NC State, Georgia Tech and Miami.
Pairings and seedings will be announced Monday at 12 pm., with a selection show to air on ESPNU.

There are many people who are not happy with the shape and size of their nose since birth. They want to get it improved so that it can appear in harmony with rest of the facial features. This is when you can prefer undergoing nose surgery in Delhi, a cosmetic procedure which has transformed the lives of many people across the globe. There are many people who benefited from the rhinoplasty surgery.
As a matter of fact, you would come across many people who will share their story of getting rid of bumps, curves and hooks on their nose. There is no doubt at all that rhinoplasty surgery in Delhi has gotten the reputation of being performed only for vanity, aesthetic and cosmetic reasons, and in many cases that is what the procedure is all about. However, there are a few other reasons too for which a person might prefer undergoing this surgery and they might have got nothing to do with aesthetic or vanity.
More than cosmetic or vanity
Many patients undergo nose job for addressing physical aftermath after an accident or injury, correcting deformities or correcting a nose that is not structured properly for allowing optimal breathing. Congenital deformities of nose are related to a palate or a cleft lip and need surgery that is usually performed on kids or teenagers suffering from this condition. Some might also require a subsequent surgery for correcting deformities related to a previous plastic surgery of nose.
In addition, lifestyle choices such as the cocaine abuse can cause destruction of the cartilage and nasal septum leading to the collapse of the nose, thus need for surgery arises. This is extremely difficult to reconstruct. There are many patients who have severely deviated septum and struggle to even breathe. Such patients do not undergo nose job surgery just for cosmetic purposes. In fact, that might be additional perk for many people.
It is true that patients who ask for nose surgery mostly have a cosmetic concern. However, it is important to know that reconstructive and cosmetic surgeries are not black and white terms. In some cases, rhinoplasty is combined with septoplasty or other such procedure.
Different nose surgery procedures have different results. Also, the cost of nose surgery varies from one procedure to the other. There are many people who worry about the nose surgery cost in Delhi. The cost every surgery is different depending on the procedure, approach and method chosen along with the experience and expertise of the surgeon chosen. In a nut shell, rhinoplasty is much more than a procedure performed for aesthetic and vanity reasons. It is performed for medical reasons giving person a new lease of life.

Drama club pupils research the topic and are an integral part of the devising process, from writing the script to staging. They then perform in school assemblies and on the field at lunchtimes, so other pupils can learn from them. They have been roaring successes.
We research the issue and type up the script.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9" round cake pan with foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
Make the cookie cake: Beat butter and sugar with a hand or a stand mixer until creamy. Beat in egg and vanilla, then mix in baking soda, salt, and cream of tartar. Slowly mix in flour. Stir in M&Ms and sprinkles.
Press batter into prepared pan, pressing more M&Ms onto the top as desired. Bake for 19-22 minutes or until the edges are just turning a light golden brown. It's better to under bake this dough than over bake it. The cake will continue cooking a bit as it cools so err on the side of underdone for the best tasting cookie. Let it cool completely before frosting.
Make the frosting: beat butter until smooth, then slowly beat in powdered sugar until crumbly. Add salt and vanilla, then add 1 teaspoon of heavy whipping cream. Beat until smooth, adding another teaspoon of heavy whipping cream to get a spreadable texture.
To frost: use a 1M tip and a ziplock or piping bag to decorate the cookie cake. Top with more sprinkles and M&Ms.

- It was about 6 15 AM in the Bay Area. I saw white ball at 9 o clock to the sun. The ball was very bright, but as the Sun was going up, so the bowl slightly down and fading. I hope tomorow will be like today, for my confirmation.
- Kacper, on godlikeproductions Message Board
- The 9:00 position would have it just directly to the left of the sun, so right were Planet X would be with the Red Persona getting bent up. Mercury is also to the left but is very close to the sun, only a few degrees away so I'm not sure if he could have been seeing that at all.
- Steve
- You said it was to the 9 oclock of the Sun? Well Venus was at the 2-3 oclock of the Sun and about 30 degrees or so above the horizon. How high above the horizon was it?
- Farwalker
- It was about 6:15 AM . The sky was very clear ,and the sun was right above the horizon. I was looking at that for about 5 minutes. The distance of the white ball was about 5-6 diameter of the sun direcly to the left. I was astound. This is a whole true so help me God.
- Kacper
- Attention debunkers, my computer planetarium shows Venus approximately 20-30 Sun diameters to the 2 oclock of the Sun. This is no where near where this guy is reporting this. Mercury is still below the horizon at this point in time. There is nothing on the star charts where this person said. Also, people are beginning to see white in Planet X, I guess it depends on the angle and the conditions for the White Persona to show.
- Farwalker
- Regarding the debate on the moon and sun´s position at sunrise in San Fran: First of all the moon is new right now. Only a tiny crescent sliver may have been visible at moonrise the past couple days. Secondly, yesterday on April 30, the moon rose to the right side of the sun per USNO azimuth statistics for that date in the Bay area. That would be the 3 o´clock position relative to the sun, not the 9 o´clock position. Don´t know what he saw, but if he saw something at 9 o´clock position it shouldn´t have been the moon.

Creating the perfect UX workshop bag — — UX Collective
✔ Love stationery
✔ Love workshops
This is a great guide to workshop essentials. I'm impressed that this kit contains a wider variety of materials, and yet seems so much smaller than the workshop bag we use at work. Maybe we rely too much on mountains of sticky notes!
I'd be tempted to add planning poker cards to this list. Planning poker is usually thought of as a technique for estimating work in agile projects. But it can also be used as a prioritisation technique in workshops.
Wedding health and safety nightmares
On our wedding day I discovered that getting married is actually quite a dangerous business. Here are a selection of the health and safety nightmares we encountered that day. Read full articleComment
The paint-scraping myth: Why the story behind Mercedes' special livery isn't true — — RaceFans
Spoilsports! 😉
In all seriousness, I'm impressed at the effort Mercedes have put in to celebrating 125 years in motorsport and their 200th F1 race.
While having all the team personnel (including mechanics!) dressed up in 1950s-style outfits looks fun, it surely must be distracting. Watching the mechanics working on the cars in the garage with their baggy overalls dangling all over the place, I had to think some of these mechanics must find it all annoying.
Lewis Hamilton certainly seemed to find his special gloves annoying during free practice 3 yesterday when he tetchily requested his normal gloves as the session was about to start.
As for the livery, Toto Wolff said:
"I can tell you it's definitely not making the car lighter… In all the briefing sheets prior to this weekend the engineers pointed out 'too heavy stickers'…"
I'm sure it's a small thing, but I've always wondered if thick stickers have an effect on aerodynamics. If you look at the photos on the RaceFans article, you can actually see how thick some of the decals are.
I'm sure they wouldn't do it if it was a problem. But surely thick stickers would be more of a factor than matt paint?
What is co-design? — — Beyond Sticky Notes
I've been thinking and reading a lot about co-design recently (as well as doing some of it too). This website, Beyond Sticky Notes, has provided me with even more food for thought.
I am particularly struck by the table describing various approaches from transactional to transformational. In this model, "Anything 'centred' — human, user, patient etc." is little better than "Designer as expert". Meanwhile, what I thought of as co-design may actually be more like participatory design. There's so much more to do.
But one line of warning is familiar to any good user experience practitioner, and is worth repeating until the cows come home.
Co-design builds long term commitment. By contrast, consultation often gives the illusion we've bought people on board — only to have them then fall overboard. With consultation, we pay later — often in costly, public and damaging ways."
Make sure you also see Mindsets for co-design, another enlightening article on how to do co-design better.
This website is in support of a book due to be published in 2020. I am now looking forward to it.
Thanks to Alison Wright who retweeted the latter article and brought it to my attention.
Apple contractors 'regularly hear confidential details' on Siri recordings — — The Guardian
Apple contractors regularly hear confidential medical information, drug deals, and recordings of couples having sex, as part of their job providing quality control, or "grading", the company's Siri voice assistant, the Guardian has learned.
Looks like Apple's big claims on privacy are — like most things from Apple — a superficial marketing line.
Rainbow — Battles
Their single Atlas may have got the most attention, but for me it was Rainbow that was the centrepiece of Battles' extraordinary 2007 album Mirrored. It mixed cartoonish melodies with prog rock hardness.
I first came across Battles on the release of EP C/B EP, a compilation of their early EPs. Hearing SZ2 for the first time was hugely exciting. It felt like exactly the music I was looking for all along, without ever knowing it.
So even though Mirrored was their first album, it already represented a surprising change in direction. The chin-stroking post-rock had been superseded by Pinky and Perky vocals.
It was confusing. But listening to it for a second time, it felt as vital as their early material. In time, more so.
Their live performances were genuinely mind-boggling. They did things with live loops and sampling in ways that no-one else dared.
At the height of their powers, Battles made music in a way no-one else was making it. Watching them live was like watching four people walking a tightrope simultaneously. It could go wrong at any moment, and watching them push themselves and cope with it or recover from going wrong was a marvel.
Brian Eno counted himself as a fan:
When you see a band you really like, the reason you really like them is because you wish you'd had that idea. And I saw them and thought, "dammit, why didn't I think of that?"

The fate of the Tories now rests with a new leader — Jo Swinson of the Liberal Democrats — — New Statesman
Why the new Liberal Democrat leader Jo Swinson may be more pivotal to the future of the Conservatives than Boris Johnson is.
[W]hile the Liberal Democrat revival is taking Labour's votes, it is costing the Conservatives more seats. Of the 82 seats that the Lib Dems hope to make their major targets, just three — Sheffield Hallam, Leeds North West and Streatham — were won by Labour in 2017.
On Jo Swinson, for what it's worth, I'm very pleased that she is the new Liberal Democrat leader. I voted for her this time, and actually I really hoped she would become leader when Vince Cable did (although I recognise it wasn't the right time for her).

Top tasks surveys have identified what really matters to students using Learn — Website and Communications Blog
As part of our programme of user research in support of the Learn Foundations project, we have carried out a top tasks survey to understand what students need when accessing course materials online.
What we found was that students value three items much more than everything else. Those items are all to do with lectures.

The elements of a better user experience in Learn — Website and Communications Blog
As part of the Learn Foundations project, we have carried out a programme of quantitative research to ensure a user-centred approach to solution development.
The Learn Foundations project team wanted to develop a new template using a user-centred approach. This template would be designed to introduce more consistency between different courses in Learn. But it also had to support a diverse variety of needs across different courses, supporting different schools, colleges and teaching needs. It also had to be developed quickly.
We took inspiration from a classic user experience diagram to ensure this new template could be built on firm foundations.
This post introduces the steps we took. Forthcoming posts will describe each step in more detail and some of our key findings.
Why this is a bad time for Red Bull to drop their leading junior talent — — RaceFans
It's good to see this issue getting some more attention, from none other than Dieter Rencken. I've been saying this for years.
If the aim of the Junior programme is to develop F1 drivers such situations point to something seriously amiss with the selection process. In 20 years and over 350 grands prix, just three alumni – Sebastian Vettel, Daniel Ricciardo and Verstappen – won grands prix. Of these only Ricciardo can be considered a fully 'homegrown' product of Red Bull's system, the other two having been schooled elsewhere.
Dan Ticktum's meltdown was seemingly brought about by the high-pressure environment of Red Bull's driver programme. But this just the latest in a very long line of failures.
It's easy to say this from the outside, but if I was a driver with some talent I would steer well clear of the Red Bull programme. The list of unnecessarily ruined careers is far, far longer than the successes.

The return on investment of design-led change — — FutureGov
How design can be used instead of traditional change management methods.
In the same way that design-led change isn't just about hiring designers, it also shouldn't be thought of as a specialist or localised resource (like a design team). Creativity and thinking about design as a state of mind is more a competence that should be part of the fabric of every 21st-century organisation.
My thinking on this has changed a lot over the years. In the past I might have thought that having a strong design team was the way forward. But that's just creating another silo.
Now I see the real job as finding ways to empower the entire organisation to think like a designer, and help them make the right decisions for the right reasons.
Vexations — Erik Satie
Erik Satie's Vexations is shrouded in mystery. It was not published during Satie's lifetime. It's thought it was composed in 1893. But it went undiscovered until 1963, when John Cage first performed it publicly.
It is just three lines long, but is accompanied by this ambiguous instruction (translated from French):
In order to play the theme 840 times in succession, it would be advisable to prepare oneself beforehand, and in the deepest silence, by serious immobilities
While this is usually interpreted as an instruction to repeat the music 840 times to complete a performance, it's not clear if this was actually Satie's intention.
The tempo instruction is "Très lent" — very slow. In the words of Wikipedia, this "could mean anything".
Cage's first performance lasted over 18 hours — longer than he had estimated. The CD recording I own lasts only 23 minutes — a tiny fraction of the full experience. The liner notes to that CD flags up the following:
A 70 minute performance (40 repetitions) of Vexations by Alan Marks is available on the CD Vexations (LTMCD 2389)…
Despite the repetitive nature of the music, it never seems to get boring. There is something disturbing yet irresistible about it. I always imagine falling very slowly towards an uncertain destination. It feels like being trapped in an Escher painting.
This piece predates muzak and ambient music by at least 50 years. The CD liner notes say it "provided minimalism with an important historical precedent." It even predates Dada.
This YouTube video contains a full performance, albeit one performed seemingly too fast.
You don't hear this on adverts quite as often as Gymnopédie 1…

I had this whole post worked up in my head about the election (yes, I know, surprising), but then I picked up Jane from daycare today, and immediately changed my blog topic for today.
You can't see it too clearly in these pictures, but she is all scraped up under and above her left eye. I got the dreaded "accident report" (we've gotten three of these in the past couple of weeks!) when I picked her up, which detailed how she slipped and fell out on the playground today, basically giving herself a rug burn on her face (yes, they have a rug in the playground, I'm not sure why). She took it like a champ though, and didn't even cry. I wanted to cry when I saw her, however!
You must admit, it gives her a bit of that "don't mess with me" aura, though.

Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SP)
Mangaluru, Jun 9: The long-awaited flyover at Thokkottu which limped along for eight long years has finally been completed. Its inaugural has been planned for June 10. But there is no indication that it will be opened on that day. But at the last minute, questions about the scientific aspects of the flyover are being raised. As such, there is doubt about the flyover getting inaugurated as planned.
After several years, when the bridge is ready for inauguration, discordant notes about the flyover being unscientific are being raised. The critics say that the road bend at the place where the flyover ends can wreak havoc. In fact, the flyover was to continue and end at Kapikad, but for the benefit of people of Ullal and tourists visiting it, the flyover has been made to end at the spot where three roads meet where one of the roads leads to Ullal.
Thokkottu Flyover - File Photo
Another point of danger envisaged is near Naganakatte. The platform, dedicated to the serpent god, was planned to be removed. But because of the obstruction by devotees, it has been retained. At this point, both the highway and service road meet each other. As vehicles coming at high speed on the main road and others coming from service road join here, it can pose danger to vehicle users, it is said.
Minister, U T Khader, has come up with the suggestion to build a flyover from the service road to the road bend at Ullal as two-way traffic on service road is not possible. He said that the MP and officials of the department have agreed to this suggestion, and a final decision would be taken at the meeting being held on June 10. In the past too, the space below the flyover was to be closed as per the original sanction. Sensing that it would be disadvantageous for the local businessmen and locals, Khader had intervened. Therefore, the flyover design had to be revised, which took about a year more.
Former vice president of the zilla panchayat, Sathish Kumpala, noted that minister Khader had undertaken Padayatra about the flyover not having been completed, before the election. He accused the minister of staging another political drama now after the flyover is completed, after remaining silent all these years.
This looks like an unwanted situation where the completed flyover is not allowed to function for petty reasons..
Don't worry Mangalore buddi less jeevis.. your elected MP will take 5 years more.. deal with it!
Tarikh pe tarikh ...........Magar jantha ku insaf kaab milega Nalinana
Better to inaugurate this when the flyover is fit and travel worthy.
Congress should cash on this and question Nalin and BJP. Where is Mithun Rai? and also rest of the Congress leadership? Will they wake up on in 2024 ?
Now every year June 10th will be celebrated as FLYOVER day in Mangalore as our MP's dream fulfilled
NO.1 MP busy in celebrating every where and people are garlanding him , for what? rest of the time he will be sleeping in circuit house, hats of to people of DK.
i Dont think its Nalins problem now..Where were the people who objected now after the completion.?
Nalinanna will say Thokottu flyover will only be reopened when 1$ = 15 rs.
Bega inauguration malple... Ijinda karba pura gujuri dakul kander
Everyone including Khader changed the design to suit their needs and now blame NHAI for delay and design
were is nalin last time he came thier gave some speach i tulu and we wil do lblb
Year not yet mentiond, keep our fingers crossed.
Fake promises
Nganakatte, grotto, shrine, gudi can block the highway expansion? Did not the honorable SC order the DCs to implement its orders to remove all these obstacles on government land?
Only voting time MLA MPS get active finish work after vote know one thier .voted people has to do the work .......
While passing thokkottu chant MODI s name and coming back chant GHADKARI s name and vote NALIN.... Five years will go like anything....
Mr. Khader has a valid point regarding the flyover. It's a complete fault of highway engineers who designed the road. The root cause of this problem is lack of experience and lazyness. Present structure of thokkottu flyover welcomes more accident. I am going to blame the engineers whoever approved this structure without visiting the actual work site.
NKK had said few days ago that the flyover will be operational from June 10 onwards. He was 100% right. Its us who misunderstood the statement. He never said it will be in 2019. It may be in 2100 or 2500 or might get delayed for couple of more years, due to "some" technical issues.
No Problem, No Hurry, Don't worry Mr. Kateel !!!!! There is 5 years time period extended for you!!! " tab takh Peteelu bajateh rehna"
The pump well flyover will be d a heritage site by UNESCO by the end of this year if not completed.
This seems to be latest news !!! Let's have a inauguration date planned. If it's a success then we celebrate
There will be latest news every month Madam.Keep the champagne ready on first of every month, celebrate on the last day of every month, expecting a new date of inauguration on the next month!!!
No point criticising guys! Does not matter even if its another 5 years. Nalin Kateel or BJP has nothing to lose . The cong will help them win . When there are 3 weeks for election, a ' Lallu' will be fielded as candidate and he will be called a 'Tiger'. Thats it.
CONgress is full of 2 legged 'CIRCUS TIGERS' .....Good at 'Tipu Jayanthi' only...Absolutely shameless fellows...What else you expect Voters to do them than this ???......Tak...Takk...
We have already waited 8 years, another 8 will not make much difference.I don't know why these so called Engineers/politicians don't get all people together and decide what is good and possible initially itselfand not leave it only in the hands of politicians and engineers only.
Nalin Kumar, can only deal with cow's incident.
It will open soon and anti Nalin keep your burnol and Ice cube ready....
Who planned ???
No surprise. Nothing much is going to happen, same was the case last 10years. People still believe in such politicians.
Don't worry Dear, Gadkari is here.
Now where is our No. -1 M.P........
Not opening as planned? It's okay, mangalore has learnt to live without a flyover for 8 years. We'll learn to live for another 5 years, until Mr. Kateel's tenure gets over. Then the people will know how they wasted their votes.
Good for all those who voted for Kateel in the name of Modi.
We will vote for Modi again in 2024.
"Thokkottu flyover not to be inaugurated on June 10 as planned?" What's so surprising!!😂

When we were approached by our member, Deer Park Hotel, to organise a FAM trip, we were delighted as the venue and grounds look beautiful and we were thrilled to be given the opportunity to showcase this 18th century manor house. The Deer Park team held their plans very close to their chests; only when we received a beautiful silk boxed invitation, created by our member ER Stationery (complete with Ferrero Rocher), did we realise quite what they had in store for us.
This invitation was sent to the great and the good of the wedding industry inviting them to join us to experience some Devonshire hospitality.
The day arrived, and fellow member, Caledonian Club in Belgravia had very kindly offered to host us as the pickup point. They welcomed us with teas, coffees and pastries, before having a show around of this wonderful historical private members' club. This central London venue has the most beautiful staircase, and some wonderful architectural features which make it a sought-after wedding venue.
After our show around, it was time to board the coach. Deer Park had thought of everything - placed on each seat was a goody bag full of sweet treats and water to keep us going on our journey.
On arrival at Deer Park, we were welcomed with homemade pizzas made in the hotel's outside pizza oven (very popular with wedding parties) and homemade cider. Photographer Venetia Norrington was also there, ready to capture the whole event on camera.
After our pizza, we all felt quite excited and intrigued by MD Mark Godfrey's announcement that a spot of duck racing was about to ensue! This 'entertainment', provided by Chris Farris Events, involved us choosing a duck to back and encourage (with the use of our duck whistles!). The ducks were dressed in their finery ready for us to make our choices. We were split into two teams and competed against each other - it was so much fun! Whilst one team enjoyed the duck racing the other team had a show round of the Deer Park grounds and the walled garden, after which we swapped. After the duck racing and stroll, a Devon tea was laid on for all to enjoy, and of course, this incited the obligatory discussion of jam or cream first - in Devon it's jam first!
We were then treated to a spin around the property and its surround in some of Deer Park's classic cars, a very elegant 1925 Phantom Rolls Royce and The Packard V12 (also known as the gangster's car!).
It was then time to retire to our rooms to get ready for the evening celebrations. The evening began with cocktails and canapés, and fabulous entertainment by Natasha Day who sang some of the most beautiful arias. We were then invited into The Orangery for dinner, which had been dressed with wonderful florals by Poppy's of Exeter. The fabulous setting was further enhanced by Natasha now singing, accompanied by a grand piano.
We enjoyed a delicious three course dinner with vegetables from the Deer Park vegetable garden, fine wines, and some wonderful conversation with industry colleagues. The evening's lively bonhomie was suddenly interrupted by the appearance of the Devon and Somerset Fire Drums (made up of local Fire Brigade) which made for quite a spectacle.
After dinner, everyone was invited into the library for a nightcap and more lively conversation.
The following morning, after a hearty breakfast, we were joined by our guest speaker Janet Mohapi-Banks, who gave an interactive presentation, 'Presenting Yourself Well In Business' - this certainly fired us up ready for our journey back to London.
After a quick look at some of the luxury accommodation available at the hotel (we had to wait until the overnight guests had checked out – obviously!), it was then time to say our goodbyes to the Mark and his wonderful team. A team who had done all they could to ensure our stay was an enjoyable one and that we saw Deer Park and its facilities and potential in all its glory – we certainly did!
As we boarded our coach back to London, we were all the handed little picnic baskets with freshly made sandwiches and a bottle of champagne, to sustain us on our journey back. A thoughtful finishing touch to what was a memorable and enjoyable stay at Deer Park.

Stand with Elizabeth Warren: Sign to DEMAND Congress pass Automatic Voter Registration >>
Connie, this is important:
Right now, more than 50 MILLION eligible Americans are currently not registered to vote.[1]
Democrats introduced the Automatic Voter Registration Act of 2017 to automatically register EVERY eligible voter — but Republicans REFUSE to pass it!
We need 5,000 progressive signatures from 95124 to get behind this bill RIGHT NOW before it's too late:
|Stand with Elizabeth Warren: Demand Congress Pass Automatic Voter Registration >>
Most of these eligible voters are young people, low-income Americans, and minorities — all of whom tend to vote Democratic if registered!
By making voter registration automatic, we could permanently engage previously disenfranchised Americans in our political process.
Benefits of Automatic Voter Registration
We need a federal law to guarantee that everyone is registered to vote, regardless of their race, income, or voting record.
But with Trump DETERMINED to pass discriminatory voting laws, we're terrified that EVEN MORE Americans will be blocked from the polls.
But we can't do this alone. Grassroots supporters like you need to keep beating the drum if we're ever going to implement national automatic voter registration.
Do your part for 95124 now to DEMAND Congress pass Automatic Voter Registration now:
Thanks for standing up for what's right,
– Progressive Turnout Project

Here's another portion of a screenshot from Sid Meier's Pirates!:
That guy third from the left is almost drowning in the grass...
Civilization 4 has an unnecessary 3D engine, too. I hope we don't see this same kind of graphics faux pas there — I'm already unimpressed by the screenshots...
Anyway, back to Pirates!. I finished my first game of it today (almost a year after buying it, but I only got around to playing it last week). It's pretty good. From a gamer's point of view, I like the open-endedness, I like the wide variety of things to do, I like the way the genre has been realised in a somewhat tongue-in-cheek fashion. The game as a whole is very enjoyable. It features several mini-games at various points, though, and some of these are better than others (and I was better at some than at others). I'm excellent at the dance-with-the-governor's-daughter routine of matching movement to music, I'm pretty damned good at the attack-a-town-from-the-land strategy sub-game, I'm so-so at the sneak-into/out-of-the-town mazey sub-game (which I dislike — it's like a stripped-down version of Pac Man, which I don't enjoy even when it isn't stripped-down) and I totally suck at duelling. Sadly, duelling is the one crucial skill I needed...
The game annoyed me somewhat with its attitude to saving: you couldn't do it in a town. You couldn't even load a saved game in a town. This meant that on occasions I had situations like the following when I wanted to duel a criminal, but he was holed up in an enemy town. To get into the town meant attacking it, which entailed a 10-15 minute strategy game. Inside the town, I went to the inn but couldn't speak to the bartender unless I beat an annoying captain hitting on a barmaid. If I succeeded there, I then got to fight the criminal. The criminal would have some super-fast attack or defence that made it hard for me to beat him. If I lost, I got thrown in the jail. But hey, I had a skeleton key and automatically got the chance to escape via the maze sub-game! Except if I didn't manage to then I was back in jail. But guess what? There's a second chance to escape that presents itself! The smart thing to do here was not take it, because then I merely lost some months in jail but not many seconds of real time. when I was released, I could sail from the port, and was at last in a position to reload my original arrival at the town. I could then spend another 25-30 minutes trying my luck against the defending armies, the annoying captain and the criminal again (and the maze, if I failed in either of the duels).
The climax is supposed to be where you find and defeat the evil nobleman Montalban who kidnapped your family. To fight him, you have to find his hideout and then attack it (as it's like a town). When you've done that, then you get to fight him. This is all well and good, except if you suck at duelling like me (not having grown up playing beat-em-up games on consoles) and can't get the special move combinations to work, you siply can't defeat him. I must have taken him on a dozen times in 20-minute interludes (because of the battle you have to fight to reach him) and I'm not sure I managed to hit him even once. He has lightning-fast reactions and lightning-fast attacks. OK, well I also have lightning-fast reactions (in real life, hence in the game) but I don't have lightning-fast attacks. If my character does a high chop or a low slash, it takes 2 time units; if Montalban does one, it takes 1 time unit. The fact I couldn't beat the guy was my one disappointment with the game. Maybe I'll play it again but stay at the easy level the whole time instead of getting to swashbuckler as quickly as possible...
Hmm, now shall I return to Port Royale 2, or the games of Morrowind or Neverwinter Nights I have in stasis? I've played both right through before but they're still fun. Hmm, I have a Railroad Tycoon 3 I've yet to try out, and a Jowood RPG compiliation with Arx Fatalis on it. I'm reluctant to try this, though, because I played Gorasul (also on it) until I downloaded a patch to fix the word wrapping in the speech bubbles and it started demanding a non-existent CD key from me; I wouldn't want the same thing to happen with Arx Fatalis when I install whatever patches are necessary to play it.
Maybe I'll just finish the Civilization 3 game I'm testing out my new Ganymede map on...

We don't have dormitories, student unions, or a sports stadium, but we do have a rigorous curriculum and the skilled, motivated students you'd expect to find on any college campus. In the world of generator knowledge, our training programs are so thorough we decided to give them a proper name…
We named our internal training programs at CD & Power "Tall Bald Guy University" as a tribute to our founder, Chuck Uischner, a gifted diesel mechanic who launched the business in 1985.
Chuck was a big guy. Everything about him was big, even his big-hearted handshake. As old pros at CD & Power tell it, it would start with his right hand swooping down from on high to a warm and unforgettable handshake. Chuck surrounded himself with motivated people who wanted to grow with him. From the get-go, Chuck supported continuing education programs on the installation, maintenance, service, repair and safe operation of diesel engines and generators.
The Mission
Information lies at the core of what we offer customers, information formed over decades of learning, experiencing, problem-solving and mastering the operation of industrial generators and engines. It is manifest in the A-Team of men and women we field today. But, what about tomorrow? That question led us to our commitment to education and to the TBGU mission.
The TBGU mission is to stream into the work force, highly trained and tested men and women who will help protect CD & Power's competitive edge in the twenty-first century and beyond.
The TBGU Curriculum
The TBGU curriculum grew out of the Generator Genius training program we established for our work force. The program spans four tracks of study including:
- Generator
- Truck
- Administration
- Fire Truck
Generator Graduation Requirements
An overview of one track, the Generator Graduate Requirements, will give you some measure of the deep dive a four year program takes.
- Freshman Year: Forklift, Towing, Electrical Safety, Loadbank Review, and engine certifications offered by companies such as Honda and Isuzu; as well as Industrial Generator certifications.
- Sophomore Year: Instruction in Generator Hour Tracking, ATS Hours, Maintenance Procedures. Online certification programs offered by Cummins and Kohler are included.
- Junior Year: intensive internal interface with Senior Tech staff as well as EGSA certification.
- Senior Year: Advanced diagnostics of diesel engines including reviews of electrical, air and exhaust, fuel, emissions control and all the integral components that ensure safe and effective generator power.
Our graduates will continue to grow their skills as they meet real life problems under the leadership of our field supervisors. Similar levels of complexity mark the academic tracks pursued in the Truck, Administration and Fire Truck curricula.
Each CD & Power student who successfully completes the four-year program earns a special, all expenses paid vacation.
If you are a mechanic looking to work in the industrial generator field and a position opens up here, the opportunity to "matriculate" at TBGU could launch a rewarding career.
In addition, our "Generator Genius" program, consisting of videos encompassing the ABCs of industrial generator operation, maintenance and safety, is a powerful tool you can use. It's free to all. Check it out at https://www.gotpower.com/generators/generator-genius/

Girlaboutown wins Big A feature
NEW YORK (AP) Girlaboutown improved to 2 for 2 at Aqueduct with a 1 1/4-length victory Friday in the $67,000 allowance feature for older fillies and mares.
After winning here in late November, Girlaboutown ran 10th and fourth in two starts at Gulfstream Park.
The 4-year-old perked up on the return to New York, wearing down the pacesetting Full of Sugar in the lane while comfortably holding off a late challenge from Checkupfromzneckup, the 2-1 favorite.
The time was 1:46.31 for the one mile, 70 yards on the fast track with Jose Ortiz aboard for trainer Mike Hushion.
Girlaboutown, 4 for 8 overall, paid $11, $5 and $3.30. Checkupfromzneckup returned $3.90 and $2.80, and Dragonberry paid $2.50 to show.

Wow, can you believe we're less than a month away from Thanksgiving 2019, and less than two months to Christmas 2019? Before you know it, 2020 will be upon us!
November is a month of thanks and gratitude, but don't wait until Thanksgiving to express your thanks and gratitude to the ones you love. Besides, Thanksgiving is really late this year, coming on Nov. 28, two days before the end of the month! In other words, start giving thanks early!
So, with that in mind, I'd like to express my undying thanks and gratitude to Mom and Dad, who give us love, food and lots of belly rubs, to my siblings, who keep me on my toes and don't let me get away with anything even though I think I should be getting away with some things and the extended Chatterbox PR family (you know who you are), who also give us lots of love.
I know all the attention this month is on Thanksgiving, and putting away all the Halloween decorations and costumes for another year, but there are other important days, too. Such as Veteran's Day, Nov. 11; Caregiver Appreciation Day and World Kindness Day on Nov. 13; National Philanthropy Day on Nov. 15; World Peace Day on Nov. 17; Universal Children's Day, Nov. 20; and National Adoption Day on Nov. 23.
Then there are all these days around Thanksgiving that are related, but they're not on the actual day. For example, Nov. 21 is National Stuffing Day, Nov. 22 is National Cranberry Relish Day, and Nov. 29 is Maize (Corn) Day. Shouldn't they be on Thanksgiving Day?
Also, Nov. 26 is Shopping Reminder Day, as if we need that; Nov. 27, the day before Thanksgiving, is National Tie One On Day, which makes sense unless you're the cook the next day; Black Friday, biggest shopping day of the year, is the 29th, as is Buy Nothing Day —but who ever follows that? — and You're Welcome Day, which is the proper response to Thanksgiving. And don't forget Nov. 30 is Small Business Saturday, so get out there and support your local businesses!
Also, don't forget, Sunday, Nov. 3 is when Daylight Saving Time ends, so don't forget to turn your clocks back an hour, or was it turn your clocks one hour forward? I forget, but that's because I'm a dog and not a clock-watcher. I have Wakeup Time, Feeding Time, Walk Time, Play Time, Nap Time, Feeding Time and Sleep Time. That's it, no clock needed. Works for me!
(Editor's Note: It's "fall back," so move your clocks back one before you go to bed on Saturday night, Nov. 2!)

With one Playboy centerfold set to headline a topless Vegas show, another one is following to guest star in her own risque act in Sin City. A rep for Crazy Horse Paris, the a topless cabaret show at MGM Grand, tells PEOPLE that Carmen Electra has signed on to star in a week's worth of shows in July. "She's not going topless, but she will be wearing very little. She's going to wear whatever she is comfortable with," the rep says. Carmen will star in the show in July

5 Minutes of Growth
Once again, it's 5-Minute Friday, and our word for today is "Grow". It seems a bit odd to me, since we just did "Growing" on September 23rd, but it inspired a completely different post in my head this time, so what do I know? Maybe that proves the point of thinking often about growth, right there.
With gratitude in advance to Joni Mitchell, The Counting Crows, and William Nicholson, author of the screenplay for Shadowlands, I begin.
"It's comin' on Christmas/They're cuttin' down trees..."
"A long December/And there's reason to believe/Maybe this year will be better than the last..."
Last year at this time, I was calling a hospital back home in Indiana from my apartment in Washington state nearly every day to get a report on my mother from nurses I never met. My brother was dividing his time between a lot of work, occasional meals, occasional sleep, and sitting at my mother's bedside.
I was hoping against hope that what I knew was happening would, indeed, not happen, and rejoicing that the Reaper had held off at least for one more holiday, so grateful for that on Thanksgiving that I was practically giddy. He continued to remain at bay until just after New Year, for which I was also thankful. No more Christmas funerals. I've attended too many.
No relationship in the world is like that between a mommy and her child, and two adults, each arrested at the moment when they first realized that lupus was fatal, are still wondering, finding their place without her. After several years, we found our place without Dad; I assume that we'll eventually stumble into peace without Mom, as well.
Growing up hurts like Hell.
"But you learn. My God, you learn."

*hugs* I'm sorry about your mom.ReplyDelete
Thank you, Cassandra.ReplyDelete
Amazing how the same word or thought can provoke entirely different ideas in just a few months' time. I'm sorry for your loss - I too know the pain of losing a parent. Hoping the good times will carry you through.ReplyDelete

Lots of silk fairies flying around my living room at the moment
Love and light Marie
The small, colorful fairies - so nice to see how gently they turn in the breeze and through the sunlight.
I love these little fairies. I have a kit to make them I haven't had a chance busy with 4 kids. I wanted to hang them above the baby cot. It on my craft to do list :)ReplyDelete
Thanks ladies, they sure are rather cool, cheers MarieReplyDelete

The pendant depicts the symbol 'etua (deity) or aki'ei (the crab) used in the tradition of the Marches Islands to represent the human being. The four twisted limbs represent the flexibility and liberation of the soul as the flexibility of the crab body after the mud. It therefore represents change, the transition from one life to another, eternity (in the sacred sense) and the bond with the ancestors.
The jewels of the collection GIRAMONDO are inspired by pieces of ethnic art or by details contained in them.
Materials: Sterling Silver and Ebony

I love hot food, but I hadn't yet found a good recipe for jalapeno cheese bread…until now. This was a really good recipe.
I did make a few modifications. Instead of 1/8 cup of water, I used the juice from the jalapeno jar. I also put in about 2-3 TBSP of chopped jalapenos.
Next time, I'll just make this dough. Then roll the dough flat and put slices of cheese on top. Then roll the dough into a log so the cheese is stuck inside. Baking it at about 375-400 for probably 20-30 minutes and it'll be a spicy and gooey bread.
Will keep you posted when I make it again — BTW, the idea above hasn't been tested and so I can't guarantee that this temperature and timing works. If you try it, let me know!

Students protest UC Berkeley police arrests they say were racially motivated
Students with UC Berkeley's Black Student Union demonstrated on campus Wednesday to protest the arrests of two black students the group says were racially profiled by campus police.
Nearly 100 students gathered outside the Golden Bear Cafe, where protesters lay on the ground with signs protesting police brutality.
"To think that I can walk on campus one day and that I can be targeted and harassed by the very people that are supposed to protect us — it's an outrage. I'm just angry. I'm just mad," said Reanna Norman, 18, a first-year student.
A UC Berkeley student and a student from the University of San Francisco were arrested at around 9:30 p.m. March 8 by two university police officers who stopped the two black students and their friend, another UC Berkeley student, on Upper Sproul Plaza, the BSU said in a statement posted to social media on Monday.
The BSU said the three friends were walking home from campus when police asked if they were carrying a weapon.
"They said no and when pressed the USF student did state that she had a Taser on her," the student union's statement says. "The student usually has a Taser on her for nighttime security purposes."
UC Berkeley said in a statement that stun guns are prohibited on campus, and that a struggle ensued with the two students, who were arrested after police tried to take the stun gun.
The BSU statement said the students were "forcefully searched" and "brutalized" by police officers and that one of the UC Berkeley students was "thrown to the ground," arrested and interrogated. The USF student, who was also arrested and interrogated, was never advised of her rights, the BSU statement said.
University officials, in a statement released Tuesday, said officers were responding to a report of someone carrying a stun gun near Sather Gate in the heart of campus.
One officer told the students that "due to safety concerns," the student couldn't touch her stun gun and and that the officer would have to take it, university officials said. That's when they said the struggle began, involving the officer, the USF student with the stun gun and one of the UC Berkeley students, who "sought to intervene."
University officials did not detail the moments after the pair was detained, nor did they respond to allegations of racial profiling by members of the Black Student Union.
"The campus is satisfied with reports indicating that the District Attorney has reviewed the case and is referring both individuals to a diversion program in lieu of prosecution," university officials said.
University officials noted that the incident "unfolded during a time of heightened tension and suspicion between members of communities of color and law enforcement."
Marc Fisher, the vice chancellor for administration at UC Berkeley, said university officials recognize that the "arrest has become a racial issue for some of our community members."
"We are committed to supporting a fair and thorough investigation, and to taking the steps necessary to maintain a relationship of trust with our community and our guests, while ensuring their safety," Fisher said.
On Wednesday, students said they wanted to send a strong message to the university.
"Anytime we see black students brutalized or harassed or treated unfairly by a police force it's time to organize," said Amir Wright, 21, a third-year student and senator on the university's student body. "We can't stand by silently and let these things happen."
He said community leaders had a meeting scheduled later in the day with the chancellor to discuss what the university can do to help black students feel safe.
Wright said he hopes the university will waive fees for the diversion program the two students were assigned to, and that it will provide bias and community training for UCPD.

Yash, Mahida. Personal Interview.10/19/2014
For this bibliography i decided to interview a business school student with an internship (supply chain company). According to him, people who can't differentiate between informal and formal way writing will struggle in finding a corporate jobs in future. Because the place that he interned in was really professional and he had to be very watchful when he writes an email to his boss. He also is a teen and constantly messages just like us so he is also in habit of putting emojis and writing unprofessionally. He told me that when he got started with the job it was very hard for him to transition from the way he writes in every day life. He starts writing nicely but then somehow he goes back to his old habits of writing "you're" to "your". But after some practice he was able to write formal messages, its just that he had to be focused everytime he writes.

Italia's heavy, hardcore rockers Artificial Wish have just released their debut CD "Subconscious", and it is one hell of a record, packed with a hard-hitting sound. The guitars convincingly wrap around Andrea's vocals and just suck you write into the speakers.
The vocals are pretty lively and kind of come across as a more pissed-off sounding Lyzanxia meets Lamb Of God meets As I Lay Dying, but I think Artificial Wish is a much better band than the latter as they play and sing with so much conviction that it makes you listen, as if you're under their enchanting spell.
"Subconscious" is not my cup of tea, but I tell you one thing, this quintet possess a lot of potential to be quite big, more in the Century Media, Roadrunner kind of vein.
The production on this nine tracker is pretty solid and all of the instruments can be heard clearly, which also makes "Subconscious" a good listen. Check out the mind trippin' guitar rhythms, groove laden drumming and psyched vocal passages on "My Clay's World" and you will hear that Artificial Wish definitely have the talent to be unique.
Check it out and let your subconscious world burn in an artificial wish.

Chasing unicorns down a tunnel
At work we had some resilience awareness training yesterday which lasted 2 hours and was actually more interesting than it sounds. However, all we seem to have taken from this is to say "Poor planning on your part does not necessitate an emergency on mine." and the phrase "It's like chasing unicorns down a tunnel." The unicorns one was so memorable that we decided to use that – I can proudly announce I am the winner of the inaugural 'Unicorn Champion' challenge having squeezed that into 2 phone calls, several emails, and countless conversations around the office.Read More
The other week we had an 'Information Security Awareness' week at work – the Polish Cyber-security team were over and spent the week doing workshops and hosting sessions for the whole site – all very interesting stuff, and the live hacking demos were quote frightening with how easy it is to breach the security of a global corporation in minutes (literally). Then, the other day I got an email from a friend (hey Bu'er! 🙂 ) which in turn made me think "I've not blogged in a while…", so imagine my surprise when I found my blog database had been […]Read More
A blog post…from me?
Been a LONG time, but here it is – a new post 🙂 After dinner we were sitting at the table just chatting about the day and Lisa mentioned the amount of overtime I'm doing at the moment. "I know" said Kira, and looked at me, "YOU'RE the reason I wake up in the morning!" Of course, I took it the right way and said "That's the sweetest thing anyone's said to me." Do you know just how much a 16 year old can glare? 🙂Read More
A pox on the gambling revolution
Friday afternoon at work, 3 of us decided (I talked the others into it) to have a bet on the football: Hull to beat Arsenal Spurs to beat Liverpool Burnley to beat Chelsea We all put in £2 each, and with the treble, stood to get £1500 back if all results came in…sadly, none of them did. We laughed and put it down to experience – £2 each was no big deal, we could afford to take the loss. A key point here though, was I had to go into the bookies to place the bet – I refuse to […]Read More
Home media system
I previously mentioned how the household now relies on content streamed from the office (aka: Paul's Pit) to WDTV Live SMP players around the house. Nowadays, we have a number of Android TV boxes running the Kodi media centre. This gives us more options when watching TV/Movies – we can stream from the NAS drives, or stream over the internet. The one thing I've so far failed to accomplish with Kodi is to have a centrally accessible library whereby I can start watching a show on one box, and continue from the point I left off on another – this bothers […]Read More
The UK's draconian internet law
As we approach the end of 2016, there are mixed views – so many celebrity deaths this year, but more importantly, the passing of the 'Investigatory Powers Act 2016' here in the UK means the death of freedom on the internet: Broadband ISPs and mobile operators will tonight offer a collective sigh after the Investigatory Powers Bill effectively achieved Royal Asset to become an Act. The new law will force providers into logging a big slice of your Internet activity, irrespective of whether or not you're even suspected of a crime. At present ISPs need to see a warrant before […]Read More
HTC – the end of their fuckwittery
So, since my last post regarding HTC's total lack of respect for their paying customers, there has been some movement. The HTC representative (and apparent resident expert) Ian had touched upon me getting my phone back unrepaired with no charges being made – my response was that I wanted this in writing from HTC before I said yes or no. Imagine my (total lack of) surprise on getting an email on 30th June at 16:55: Dear Paul Bennett Device HTC One M9, Serial No. ************, is now awaiting shipment in our warehouse and should be returned to you within a […]Read More
The saga of the HTC One M9 phone…
Following me dropping my phone and the screen breaking 🙁 I decided to go with the manufacturer's for the repair, so after calling them and initiating the repair, I sent the phone off never once thinking this would turn into the saga it has. Being totally disgruntled with the customer service I have(n't) received from HTC, I typed up a letter for the HTC UK Executive Director (Lisa then took my letter and made it pretty): Dear Mr Blair May I start by saying that I have been a user of HTC phones since the HTC S710 back in 2008 […]Read More
