Engineering Education Scheme
The Engineering Education Scheme is a 6 month EDT Programme which links teams of six Year 12 students and their teacher with local companies where they work on real, scientific, engineering and technology projects. Students will be working together to complete the 6 month STEM project in teams of up to 6 students, together with support from their teachers and a supporting company STEM mentor.
Can I take part?
Ideally you should be studying AS level Maths or Further Maths, preferably with a science and/or technology subject such as Engineering. You should also have a genuine interest in science, engineering or technology, or a serious desire to discover more about it, and be able to work effectively as part of a team.
Complementary subjects such as Business Studies, Economics, IT and a foreign language are also valuable.
The selection process
As there are only six places available, we ask students to apply and provide answers to the following questions:
- What first sparked your interest in engineering?
- Describe an engineering project you have worked on. What was its purpose? Was it successful? On reflection, would you change anything?
- If you have not previously worked on an engineering project, describe and explain a piece of engineering that has inspired you.
What happens in the programme?
The project will require about 100 hours from you in total, which works out about 2-3 hours a week, in addition to the time spent at the university Residential Workshop – so please be prepared to devote time to it!
All teams will attend a launch event where they will meet their STEM mentor and be introduced to their potential project. Over the 6 months the project runs, teams will work to solve the challenges set to them. Teams will also attend a residential workshop at the University of Bath midway through their project, where facilities will be available to manufacture models and prototypes. This enables teams to provide 'proof-of-concept' for their ideas.
At the end of the 6 months there will be a Celebration and Assessment Day where students will:
- Exhibit their project work;
- Deliver a comprehensive 15 minute presentation of their solution to a team of assessors;
- Respond to 10 – 15 of minutes detailed questioning by the assessing panels.
Benefits of the programme
- Opportunity to apply P16 studies within a practical context
- Work related learning focussed on innovation and enterprise
- Experience university life and gain a greater awareness of possible career opportunities
- Opportunity to meet professional and graduate engineers, scientists and technologists from a variety of engineering projects, highlighting the multi-disciplinary nature of engineering
- Experience of teamwork, interviews, presentations, project management and writing technical reports
- Opportunity to apply for BA Crest Award at Gold Standard
- Gain Industrial Cadets Gold accreditation

Way up here in Northern Vermont, we all appreciate the talents of SUVs and Crossover vehicles, they make the difficult weather months much more bearable and the summers more full of adventure. Here at the Automaster on Shelburne Rd, we are extremely excited for the release of Honda's updated CR-V model. This long running crossover has been a perennial favorite up north so when Honda revealed the first image of the 2015 CR-V our excitement began to grow rapidly.
Seen below, the image itself doesn't offer a great deal to extrapolate from but we can all appreciate the cosmetic changes that can be seen in the image.
Our eyes immediately caught the new shape of the bumper and the consequent changes to the fog lamps, all of which make the vehicle look more focused and cohesive. Above this, the new, sleek headlights stand out, accented by a single chrome bar that connects each head light and again unifies the whole front end.
Despite only being cosmetic changes, this image gets us excited to see what changes were made to the vehicle's performance as well. We won't have to wait too much longer because on September 30th Honda is expected to drop all the details on the 2015 CR-V in advance of the October 1st on-sale date. Keep checking in here online, or come into our location at 3328 Shelburne Rd and browse our available models. Either way we'll make sure you get into the Honda that suits you best.

One of the greatest certainties in our lives is that everything is constantly changing. Sure, you can keep a consistent daily routine in your personal life, but the world is always moving forward. In our previous blog, we mentioned the meaning behind our theme for this year's Spirit & Place Festival, R/Evolution. Essentially, the definition of both evolution and revolution centers around the idea of change. We wanted to dive deeper into the meaning of both and explain why change is essential for growing our community.
When we think of evolution, a common association comes from the theory Charles Darwin posed in the 1800s. According to Live Science, he believed that people change over time in order to adapt to their surroundings. "Over time" are the keywords that separate an evolution from a revolution. An evolution doesn't happen overnight. We didn't go straight from traveling by horses to flying in jets. That happened with progress made over many years of trials and turbulence. Some things are easier to accept if we are exposed to changes in a manageable, less overwhelming form. This is why evolution is beneficial for specific changes in a community.
Sometimes, people are looking for a large change to happen very quickly, which is how a revolution occurs. This way of change often stems from a strong disdain for how a business, government or community worked before, according to Alpha History. In many cases, a revolution is what happens if there is not a steady evolution in an organization.
As is common with some historical revolutions, the current leadership is often opposed to such change because the current way of doing things already benefits them. This is why many revolutions turn violent – a lot of conflict and controversy can result from swift changes. But not all revolutions have to be vicious. New information can provide the clarity we need to revolutionize the way we live, which is why some people say the era we live in today is part of a technological revolution, according to an article in the Huffington Post. The growing knowledge and access to technology is meant to improve our lives, and improving the lives of a community is the main goal of a revolution.
Change can be intimidating, but it is also necessary for progress. The purpose of evolution and revolution is to adapt to the changing world around us. Hopefully knowing more about these two ideas make them less overwhelming and perhaps inspire you to seek out changes that can enhance your community.

FDA Inspections and 483 Observations
Share This Post
Title 21 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations, Part 211 (21CFR211) is entitled, "Good Manufacturing Practices." These regulations are known as "GMPs" and are legal requirements for all manufacturers of drug products regulated by the FDA. The FDA enforces the law through routine inspections of drug manufacturing facilities.
FDA inspections may be conducted without prior notification by the FDA. Each inspection begins with inspectors identifying themselves and presenting their credentials along with a Form 482 notice of inspection. If a drug manufacturer is out of compliance with GMPs, an FDA inspector will issue observations of non-compliance on form number 483.
During an FDA inspection, a company can request daily meetings with FDA inspectors to address daily observations. These meetings can provide the opportunity to avoid a 483 observation by addressing the specific observation while inspectors are present (if possible). The daily meetings also serve as a way to avoid any surprises at the end of an inspection.
During the inspection, a company can also request to annotate any 483 observations made during the audit with their own comments. This can be very important in providing a complete understanding of each issue to personnel at the FDA district office who will review the 483 observations. Annotations and responses to 483 observations should communicate recognition of the seriousness of each observation and the company's firm commitment to compliance.
After an FDA inspector formally presents a 483 to the company (at the end of the inspection), it is advisable to meet with subject matter experts and department management responsible for mediating each specific observation. It is crucial to take the time to determine the root cause of each observation and then form a comprehensive plan (including a realistic time frame) for remediating each observation. A comprehensive, well-reasoned response can prevent further action from the agency (e.g., the receipt of a warning letter). The head of the facility or site head of quality should sign the response to the 483.
When each observation has been remediated, a comprehensive explanation must be sent to the FDA with evidence of compliance. For example, an observation may cite lack of a cleaning SOP for a certain piece of equipment. Along with the explanation of how the company is now in compliance, a company should send an effective SOP with records demonstrating that personnel have been trained and the equipment has been cleaned according to the new SOP (demonstrating that the company is now operating according the SOP). Cleaning validation documents and analytical chemistry/microbiological test results from rinse samples must be sent demonstrating that the cleaning process produces effective and repeatable results.
When all 483 observations have been corrected to the FDA's satisfaction, the FDA will provide the company with an Establishment Inspection Report (EIR).
The FDA requires data from calibrated instruments and validated processes to ensure that the data is valid. Objective, science-based data provides inspectors with an understanding of whether a facility is operating in a state of compliance with FDA requirements. In one 483 observation an inspector wrote that the head of quality's statements were "occasionally found to be inconsistent with observed information." The inspector was compelled by the data, not the statements of the head of quality. In this particular case, the 483 was followed by a warning letter. Warning letters, court ordered injections and consent decrees can all be avoided by presenting well-documented science-based compliance data in response to FDA Inspections and 483 Observations.

Jim B's Misty Turquoise LS6 convertible
This car was still owned by the original owner when it was found about 5 years ago. The owner still had all the paperwork with the car including the POP. The new owner hired us to restore the car after calling me to fly to Canada to authenticate the car. A build sheet was found during the restoration proving even more about the heritage of this car. It is 1 of only 3 known LS6 convertibles in the extremely rare color of Misty Turquoise. It needed a very extensive restoration to bring it back to its original glory.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hdCmIM8MQI

LAOIS FORWARD GARY Walsh took to Twitter last night to take issue with the way he was unceremoniously cut from the county panel.
Walsh was substituted at half-time of the 2 – 21 to 2 – 10 loss to Dublin in Kilkenny on Saturday.
In a screengrabbed statement last night, he admits he allowed frustrations get the better of him at that moment, letting 'a few fucks' out. But added that he was 'gutted' to miss the chance to represent his county in the qualifier stage of the All-Ireland senior football championship, starting with Armagh in Portlaoise next Saturday.
"I'm even more frustrated now as I have given up time with my son, girlfriend and family for the last eight months to be tossed to the curb, it was like the phonecall cost no thought."

tonlé designs and makes comfortable, wearable clothes that are as original and beautiful as the people who make them. We adhere to principles of transparency, fairness, and waste reduction in everything we do, from the big stuff like wages, down to the little things like the materials in our buttons.
tonlé's unwavering commitment to the environment can be seen in every aspect of production, particularly in our innovative zero-waste design process. Like a chef sourcing local fruits and vegetables for a seasonal meal, our design team can often be found combing through literal tons of fabric cast aside by large manufacturers to find the highest quality remnant fabrics. But we don't stop there. Our designers work side by side with our production team to create collections that incorporate even the smallest scraps of our own waste. We're proud that our entire production leaves 0% waste, as compared to a typical factory, which can average up to 40%.
tonlé employees earn well above the local minimum wage, and are provided with benefits and extensive training. We take job creation a step further by offering career opportunities to employees, where entry-level makers can move up to managerial roles. Instead of a traditional assembly line model, our workshops are set up with team structures, where team members work on different types of products to improve their skills and contribute more creatively. We want to foster an environment where our employees enjoy working, feel confident to rebuild their lives, and can express themselves freely.

This is Fredrik and José. Two of four members in the punk band Twopointeight. I met them outside the Fredrika Bremer school in Handen a few days ago. It was while they were students here, in the mid 1990s, that they formed the band. Their self titled album was released in 2005. They told me that they had been rehearsing their new songs, and that they now were ready to go into a studio and record their forth coming album. If you want to know more, check out their MySpace site. And if you like what you hear, you can buy their debut album at Threeman Recordings. I read a review of the album where they were described as the Swedish version of Rancid.

The parents' guide to what's in this TV show.
What parents need to know
Parents need to know that Glitter Force Doki Doki is a Japanese anime series about human girls who team up with a representative from a royal kingdom to assume magical powers and battle an evil force that threatens them. There are many short-lived battles in which the girls face off with other people and with gigantic creatures born of people's negative emotions, and physical contact like punching and kicking is common. Injuries are rare, but characters often are in peril. The Glitter Force members represent individual character strengths like wisdom and compassion, and viewers see how those influence their actions for the better. On the downside, there are some body image issues to consider in how the girls dress to go into battle, with very short skirts and tight bodices that accentuate their thin frames.

Really Great
A Positive, Happy-go-lucky anime
This show is cute... Continue reading
Doki Doki!
What's the story?
In GLITTER FORCE DOKI DOKI, when the kingdom of Splendorius is attacked by the evil Mercenares, Princess Marie (voiced by Yuka Imai) goes missing, leading a warrior named Mackenzie (Stephanie Sheh) to travel to Earth to look for her. With magical Glitter Charms, Mackenzie (aka Glitter Ace) seeks out compatriots to become the Glitter Force and help her find the princess and end the cruel grip on her homeland. She finds kindhearted Maya (Debi Derryberry), who becomes Glitter Heart; Rachel (Cassandra Lee Morris), who becomes Glitter Diamond; and Clara (Melissa Fahn), who becomes Glitter Clover. Together Glitter Force faces off against Mercenare generals and the Distains they create with people's negative thoughts.
Is it any good?
This anime series is big on girl power and emphasizes how a group benefits from individuals' positive characteristics being put to good use. The most prominent example is in Maya, a do-gooder who puts others' needs before her own even before she assumes a Glitter Force alter ego. Once transformed, she's able to act fully on her compassion and throw herself into the cause of finding the princess and restoring peace to Splendorius.
Glitter Force Doki Doki has a lot of what young girls tend to like: fantasy, magic, powerful female characters, and the idea of far-off kingdoms and royalty. Unfortunately, though, it also has some images that are less than perfect for impressionable girls, including twiggy teens whose outfits are designed to show off their long legs and tiny waists. Ultimately, you must decide whether the good outweighs the questionable in this generally well-conceived anime series.
Talk to your kids about ...
Families can talk about why character is important. Are you influenced by first impressions when you meet someone new? Are you a good judge of character? What positive qualities do others respect in you?
How do the characters in Glitter Force Doki Doki demonstrate the importance of teamwork? Is every member of the group on equal footing, despite their differences? Which Glitter Force member is the leader? Is leadership essential to success?
Kids: Are you affected by how characters in TV and movies look? When they're cartoons, is their appearance always realistic? Do you think very much about how you look or the clothes you wear? What are your favorite features?

Single handed fly fishing rods are the traditional and most used fly fishing rod at all! Their undisputed advantage is that they are light and very comfortable for fishing and casting with them! Lightweight single handed fly rods with the AFTMA 1-6 markings are mostly made with a cigar-type handle that the hand easily adapts to, and the rods with this type of handle are usually predestined for finer river fly fishing. Rods in the AFTMA 7 and more category are mostly with US type of handle. In this type of handle, we easily deny our thumb and achieve good stamina in long casts on still water or when casting with a heavier streamer.
Nowadays, mainly 4-piece fly fishing rods are manufactured in different lengths, categories and designs. If you have a problem when choosing from our extensive assortment of quality single handed rods, do not hesitate to contact us! We are very happy to advise you when choosing your fly fishing rod!

Have a read of Letter of the Month in the latest edition of Shooting Gazette ('Driven shooting's finest journal'):
He wants the British game-shooting industry to emulate the NRA, one of the most ridiculed and dangerous bastions of far-right lunatics on the planet? And this is the star letter?!
Perhaps those Dubarrys should be swapped for a pair of jack boots.

Video game streaming has come of age at E3 2019, and GameCentral has played both competing services, but which one seems the best?
Although the idea has been bubbling away for years, the ability to stream a video game direct to a TV or mobile device, without the need for any additional hardware, is something that only began to seem like a viable reality this year. Both Microsoft and Google announced their services a few months ago and both were available to play at E3 – although neither were given quite the prominence you might have expected.
Project xCloud
Microsofts approach to the next generation of gaming is a multi-faceted one. There will be a new console, codenamed Project Scarlett, but theres also Project xCloud that will allow you to stream games directly to a mobile device (although only Android at first).
Theres actually two sides to the service though, with the first being the ability to stream games from your console and the other not requiring you to own any console or game yourself. Both options will be getting separate betas later this year, although at the moment Microsoft is not saying exactly what the threshold is in terms of the speed and reliability of your broadband connection.
Microsoft were very careful to emphasise that xCloud (which is just a codename) is a multi-year project and its going to take some time before everything is running as smoothly, and is as widely supported, as something like Netflix.
In terms of what we saw at E3, the Project xCloud display was surprisingly small – with just a handful of playable units. The tech did seem to work flawlessly though, with Microsoft showing off Xbox One controllers with smartphones attached to them by a simple grip. Games such as Forza Horizon 4 and Halo 5 seemed to work flawlessly, with no visible difference to playing on a console in terms of resolution, latency, or graphical quality.
The problem is that in the controlled conditions of E3 you cant really trust anything. The controllers were attached by wires to the stand and there was probably a hundred other ways to fake the demo beyond just that. Not that we think Microsoft were faking it, but theres almost no point evaluating any of the streaming services until you can play them at home in considerably more uncontrolled conditions.
Google Stadia
Technically Google werent at E3, which seems odd given the service is due to launch this year and so far theyve only had two livestream events. Instead they were holed up at what seemed to be a retro games shop a few blocks away from E3 itself.
Here we were able to play a version of Doom Eternal running on (via?) Stadia, which was a useful comparison as wed only just played a non-streaming version at a recent Bethesda event. Again, it would have been simplicity itself to fake the demo, although it was clear that this version of Doom was considerably less complete than the PC version wed played earlier.
Stadia games are not streamed PC (or console) titles but are unique versions of the various games created specifically for Stadia. Although theres no hardware at the players end of things Stadia is a new format in every other sense and the version of Doom Eternal on display was pretty buggy, with broken artificial intelligence and a moment where we got immobilised by the shadow of an in-game object (which sounds cool now weve written it down like that, but was actually just a common or garden glitch).
Most importantly though the game was only running at 1080p, and whether it was the TV screen or not the textures looked a lot muddier than wed seen previously. What was very impressive though was that it was ruRead More – Source

Finding the Best Event Center in Atlanta GA
You need to check on different factors before you can locate the best event center in Atlanta GA. To organize the best event, you need to work with the best events organizers. The space where you will have the guests also matters. If a certain number of people would be expected in an event, then you need to consider a venue where there are enough seats to accommodate all of them. There are also other aspects of the venue you need to check out such as the air conditioning and the general comfort of the people who will attend the event.
Here are tips to locate the best event center Atlanta GA:
Check on the fees. It does not matter where you would like to have an event. Places such as Marietta GA have set rates for the event organizers. You need to compare the process before making a decision on a given space. There are some venues which are known to work well for corporate meetings in Cobb County. You can start by checking out their prices before you proceed to book given event space. It will offer you a general idea of what you would have to pay before you can proceed and make your payment.
Location of the venue. If you intend to hold an event in a given place in Atlanta GA, then you need to go for venues which are located in the given area.

Seating capacity of the social events and weddings venue. You need to check on the number of people who can be accommodated in a given venue. If you have a lot of guests who will attend the big day, then it is very crucial to look for a place where they can be fully accommodated. Check on the quality of the seats available at the venue from where you can make an informed decision whether the venue can serve you well.
Other services offered at the event. In an event, you will as well need other supporting services. For instance, your guests will require readily available first aid providers if it is a big event. In any meeting which will take several hours, you will as well organize for catering services so that your guests can be served food. Check on the price of the food as well as other items you will need in the event. The service providers should be fully equipped to offer you all the necessary services required in a meeting. You can ask about the quality of food served among other services before you hold the event in a given center.
Located in Marietta GA, The Mansour Conference Center is one of the best event center in Atlanta GA

In about three weeks we depart for 17 days for a certain long, skinny Asian nation that was the focus of an awful lot of people's attention — and an awful lot of bombs — from the early 1960's till the mid-1970's. I turned 18 in 1971, during which time Vietnam was the place to avoid going to for my demographic cohort (and just about everyone else). The war's peak years — as measured by the number of American soldiers deployed there — were 1967-1969; that era saw roughly a half million US troops on the ground. By 1971 that number was down to about 150,000, which was pretty good news to me and my fellow 18-year-olds. The draft worked on a lottery system based on your birthday; you were assigned a number between 1 and 366 (for leap years!) and each year Uncle Sam announced that everyone with a number below some threshold would be called up. In the peak years the highest number that they reached was 215, i.e. nearly two-thirds of 18-year-olds! But by 1971 they were only getting down into the 80's or so, and my number was something like 126. So I did not come particularly close to being declared cannon fodder and having to get out out of it by limping into the draft board on my non-existent bone spurs.
(Fun personal historical fact: when I registered for the draft upon turning 18, I did not have my own car and so my mother — who was dead set against the whole thing — drove me to the draft board. The registration office was on the 3rd floor; I took the stairs and Mom took the elevator. A few minutes later I hear an alarm bell ringing. Mom is stuck between floors on the elevator, and the fire department has been called. Thus did my introduction to the Selective Service System become a Marx Brothers comedy.)
Anyway, these days there are still tons of Americans on the ground in Vietnam, only now we shoot money at them and they don't shoot back, which works out pretty well for everybody. And oddly, the numbers echo 1969: in 2018 there were roughly 600,000 American visitors to the country. It's one of the leading tourist destinations in Asia now: 2018 saw 15 million international visitors, about half of them from China and South Korea. (For reference, the population is about 95 million.)
As we have five times in the past seven years, we are once again traveling in a group of 16 people organized and led by Overseas Adventure Travel (OAT), who do this sort of thing awfully well. They'll be taking us pretty much down the whole length of the country, as you can see by our route, marked in blue on the map. (The blue line is a little misleading since some of the legs are by air; the country is about 1000 miles long.)
Our itinerary is:
- Hanoi
- Halong Bay
- Hué
- Hoi An
- Nha Trang
- Dalat
- Ho Chi Minh City (neé Saigon)
There are assorted side trips to villages and such along the way, and our stay at Halong Bay includes an overnight boat cruise. I'll provide details about all these places as we come to them, internet access permitting.
This, of course, is assuming that we get there at all. One additional fact that I have not yet bothered to mention is that in order to adjust to the 11-hour time difference we are currently scheduled to spend 3 nights en route in …. wait for it …. Hong Kong, currently the site of more than a little unrest as everyone attempts to piss off the Chinese jus-s-s-s-st enough but not too much. At the moment I am content to let OAT sort that all out, either by (1) sending us straight to Hanoi; (2) diverting us to, say, Singapore instead of HK; or (3) adding a special Tear Gas Cultural Event to our itinerary. Stay tuned, and we'll all find out together!

Happy Thanksgiving to you, your family and your friends from Second Chance to Live. I am honored to have you at my table. You are always welcome around my table. I have been thinking about the topic of being thankful, of having gratitude and being content. My willingness to learn from my circumstances provides the experiences upon which I am able to take advantage of the opportunities that are given to me. As I am able to take advantage of the opportunities that are presented to me through my experiences I am being led in the direction of my destiny. Although I may not presently comprehend how my circumstances, experiences and opportunities are leading me in the direction of my destiny I have learned to trust the process.
Looking back over my lifetime I have come to appreciate the value of my circumstances, experiences and opportunities because they have been preparing me to live the life I have imagined. Apart from those events I would not be living my destiny. Through my experience I have come to accept that my contentment and gratitude is not found in the outcomes but amidst the process. I have come to realize that my ability to be thankful is connected to a decision that is not dependent on any outcome. More times than not, when I am invested in specific outcomes my ability to be thankful – in the moment — is stymied. In my experience specific outcomes frequently become distractions to thanksgiving and gratitude.
I was once again reminded of this reality several months ago when I was contacted by an organization. One of the organizations executive directors asked me to become a guest author for a mini magazine that they were set to launch. At the time of our initial discussion I was told that the potential readership of the magazine would be in excess of five million readers. Needless to say, I was thrilled with the potential and increase in readership of Second Chance to Live. Nevertheless, after the mini-magazine was released to the various databases within their network my readership did not increase, but remained at the same level as before the release of their mini-magazine.
As days turned to weeks my readership did not expand or increase. Consequently, I found myself discouraged and questioning the content of Second Chance to Live. With time I came to a realization. Because I emotionally invested myself in specific outcomes I lost sight of gratitude. The outcome became more important than being grateful for the potential of over five million individuals reading my article, Traumatic Brain Injury – Activities of Daily Living. The outcome became the focus and a distraction as I allowed discouragement to rob me of the joy of being thankful for having the opportunity to be published in the mini-magazine. My awareness enabled me to let go of the outcome.
When I let go of specific outcomes I am able to benefit from the power of humility. Humility empowers my ability to recognize that I am merely a conduit or channel of the gifts that I am privileged to posses. I am merely a passenger of the grace of God as I move about and have my being. When I exchange outcomes for humility, I am able to relish in my footwork and be satisfied. Humility sets me free from the negative influence of discouragement. Humility empowers my capacity to be thankful for the circumstances that life offers, which in turn create the experiences that prepare me to take advantage of opportunities — as those opportunities become available. My willingness to let go of specific outcomes enables my ability to be thankful.
You have my permission to share my articles and or video presentations with anyone you believe could benefit, however please attribute me as being the author of the article (s) video presentation (s), and provide a link back to the article (s) on Second Chance to Live. In the event that you have questions, please send those questions to me. All questions are good questions. Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you. Copyright 2007-2015.

"Spring-Serenity Duvall and Leigh Moscowitz provide a sophisticated and accessible analysis of news coverage concerning 'every parent's worst nightmare'—and in doing so expose the myths and moral panics rooted in gender, race, class, sexuality, and nation that shape U.S. cultural views of innocence, family and childhood, as well as deviance and crime. Their book goes well beyond the common criticism of news organizations that they afford outsized coverage to white, middle- and upper-class girls who are abducted, thereby ignoring children of color and those who do not fit the preferred profile. Instead, Snatched provides nuanced readings of the news to generate fresh insights into this horrific crime."

Our Eco Garden
The Market Garden
At school we are very lucky to have a great outdoor learning environment to promote learning through all of our senses. We have a thriving vegetable plot and a greenhouse behind the hall, which is planted up annually by different groups within school. Our produce, which usually includes potatoes, onions, rhubarb and strawberries, is then put by the front gate each week for our school community to enjoy. All donations are used to buy seeds, compost and other necessary equipment to replenish our stocks for the following year.
Gardening Club
Usually from Easter through to the Autumn, we run a Gardening Club after school. Activies enjoyed include planting up seeds, creating hanging baskets and maintaining beds around the school. As well as a love of being outdoors, the children develop new skills through different learning opportunities, and hopefully acquire a life long love of gardening (and maybe even their own 'green fingers').
If you would be interested in becoming involved in any of the above activites or helping to maintain our garden areas, you would be most welcome. Please contact Mrs Broomhead through school or via email (firstname.lastname@example.com).

Edward Thomason registered his mark some time between 1803 and 1807. Jackson records work of his in 1817 and 1828. These tongs are dated 1813/14 and are very plain and un-remarkable. One curious feature of these tongs is that they are marked with the clipped duty mark. Jackson records that this mark has been replaced by a full oval duty mark by 1812. Clearly they were still using the clipped duty mark for some time after this.

Thanksgiving is Near
Most the leaves are down and collecting in scattered heaps in front of our lawns; the weather is unusually warm for this time of year but just wait; This won't last long.
We are starting to think of deer hunting, recipes sharing and gathering our families and friends in honor of Thanksgiving.
In fact, that's how Thanksgiving began was from the first successful harvest between the Native Americans and the Pilgrims arrival off The Mayflower in 1621. The men went hunting and produced various fowl and several deer for the first thanksgiving meal. The bounty was seasoned with traditional Native Americans spices and flavors.
It was George Washington, in 1789, who issues a proclamation encouraging citizens to use this time to show gratitude for our newly gained independence. Finally, in 1863, it took Abraham Lincoln's proclamation of Thanksgiving as a national holiday. This came about at the height of the civil war. He asked all war-weird Americans to help one another heal through the expression of gratitude. Lincoln marked the last Thursday of November as the day of Thanksgiving.
We have been taught to use the approaching holiday as a time to reflect on achievements, lessons, and improvements over the past year. We also gather closely with family and friends to express our gratitude for one another's support and friendship.
So to continue this year with the Thanksgiving tradition we have included the links below to help you find fun activities with your family and friends.
Please use the links to search fun activities with family and friends at Thanksgiving
We wish you FUN and LAUGHTER at your THANKSGIVING Gathering!

Uncle Irvin: Does more mean better?
By Richard Gaw
Looking at the Nov. 3 municipal election, it seems to me that a record number of new candidates are eager to be a supervisor, borough council member or school board member. There seem to be candidates challenging each other for every open seat.
One would tend to look at these statistics and come away with the conclusion, like Washington and Harrisburg, that the general public is not satisfied with the accomplishments of their local leaders and are demanding change. Americans need to shed their thin skins and throw out non-achievers – now more than ever.
Whether you support Donald Trump or not, his opinion is that a large majority of our elected officials and candidates are really not qualified for service because of a lack of mental quickness and intelligence.
Concerned citizens need to spot the dull-witted and keep them from taking office, too.
Southern Chester County did its thing on Tuesday. Let's hope the results pan out for better government.
(Uncle Irvin's column is his opinion only, and is not a news story.)

At a briefing following the meeting of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Elzhan Birtanov, the Minister of Health, announced that his ministry is preparing the concept of a draft law to regulate the retail prices.
"The concept of the draft law on regulation of retail prices for drugs has been elaborated. We will start to discuss it in the near future. The discussions will be first held in the Public Council and later in the National Chamber of Entrepreneurs and the media," said the minister.
He added that the document must pass through all cycles of public discussion.
"We plan to submit it to parliament this fall. We hope to adopt it by the end of the year and set fixed maximum retail prices for all drugs from January 1 2018," said Mr. Birtanov.
The minister also informed about the procurement of medicinal products for provision of guaranteed free medical care. The funds currently allocated for these purposes amount to 90 billion tenge.

In April 2017, Georgetown University implemented a free and confidential screening for sexually transmitted infections. The screening, now offered once per semester, has had encouraging results. Over 70 people attended the April screening, and over 250 attended the one offered this November. This growth mostly is most likely the result of the administration's expansion of services offered at the event. Last spring, only HIV testing was offered, but the screening has since been expanded to include testing for chlamydia and gonorrhea.
The demand for the screenings is clearly large already, and as Georgetown students increasingly expect such services, awareness and interest will only rise.
A free and confidential screening event once a semester is an excellent start, but offering screenings only once a semester constrains the number of students they can accommodate. Georgetown should offer free, confidential and comprehensive STI screenings at least three times a semester to demonstrate its true commitment to student sexual health on campus.
STI testing is vital to student health care. Half of all sexually active individuals are expected to contract an STI by age 25, and half of new STI cases that occur each year affect people between the ages of 15 and 24, according to the American Sexual Health Association.
Even with these staggering statistics, ASHA reports only 12 percent of young people have been tested for STIs in the past year. Undiagnosed and untreated STIs can have serious health consequences, including an increased risk of pelvic pain, ectopic pregnancies and infertility.
Although the Student Health Center offers appointments for STI testing and treatment, these appointments can often be far from free — and far from confidential.
The cost of a comprehensive STI screening at the Student Health Center can vary greatly depending on a student's insurance coverage. With university health insurance, an STI screening appointment only requires a $10 copay, but all other insurance plans have their own associated costs.
Beyond the cost of a screening at the Student Health Center, many students may not want to get tested there for privacy reasons. If students are on their parents' health insurance, they risk their parents learning about their sex lives through a health care bill in the mail. As a result, students may choose to maintain confidentiality at the Student Health Center by paying out of pocket. However, paying without insurance coverage can cost hundreds of dollars and is thus not an option for many students.
Alternatively, students can get reduced price or even free screenings at various locations around Washington, D.C., such as Whitman-Walker, a community health center, and Planned Parenthood of Metropolitan D.C.
However, the best, most convenient option for students is to get tested for free on campus. To maximize the safety and health of the student body, Georgetown should expand the number of free and confidential screening events offered each semester.
Moreover, Georgetown must host STI screenings with a variety of dates and times. With only one free event per semester, there is a significant possibility many Georgetown students — between classes, work and meetings — will not be able to attend because of other commitments. The Student Health Center should host numerous screenings per semester so as many students as possible can take full advantage of the offered service.
Student attendance also depends on robust advertising. As these events become more standardized, students will know to expect and look out for the screenings. Until then, STI screenings should get their own campuswide email, just as flu shots do.
This ask is far from extraordinary. Stanford University offers "free and anonymous HIV testing, counseling and education" for students every single weekday, according to its website. Having a few screenings per semester is easily achievable for the administration and is well worth the increased costs. Screenings can catch STIs early, before they become a serious problem. Prevention is much cheaper than the inevitable treatment costs of more serious STIs. More importantly, a knowledgeable student body will lead to a healthier student body.
Providing one free screening each semester is a gesture, but hosting multiple screenings demonstrates a true commitment to student health.

Her Late Nascent Soul Realm aura gradually dispersed. Her Peak Profound Earth Grade phoenix wings had sparked the interest within countless experts. Qu Shun and Imperial Concubine Zi were surprised by the spiritual equipment she possessed!
Because even they would find it difficult to obtain such high quality spiritual equipment. Perhaps not even Divine Transformation Realm experts would be able to hurt her when she is equipped with those pair of phoenix wings…
Only the Earth General of the Lie Tu Tribe was seething with anger.
At first glance, he already realized that that pair of phoenix wings once belonged to the general of his tribe, Xu Ri…
Lu Bei murdered Xu Ri and he gave my general's wings to his wife as a gift to make spiritual equipment… Hehe. What a "romantic" Lu Bei… He shall die paying for it!
Lu Wan'er had no idea how many eyeballs she had attracted at the moment she revealed herself, how many people coveted her phoenix wings and her alluring body nor whether someone harbored hatred towards her and trying to scheme against her…
At the same time, Lu Wan'er did not have any idea that she had caused innumerable men to admire Ning Fan to have such beauty as his wife when she said 'I'm Lu Bei's wife'.
With a wife as beautiful as her, what else would the husband ask for?!
However, she was not concerned about them at all. Deep inside her, she still had a hint of embarrassment. After all, it was her first time admitting that she was his wife in front of one hundred thousand demon cultivators…
The women of the demon clan were always bold. But this time, Lu Wan'er seemed to have acted overly courageous.
Lu Sheng laughed while gently shaking his head. Since his sister was head over heels in love with Lu Bei, he would not stand in the way. The only worry he had was whether it would be risky for Lu Wan'er to participate in the fight representing Ning Fan.
There are only 55 places for Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to compete. But the number of Peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators participating are too many…
With the Peak Profound Earth Grade phoenix wings, Lu Wan'er's speed is now comparable to that of a Divine Transformation Realm expert. In other words, she should not be facing any life-threatening danger in the fight. However, she is still just a Late Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Being able to move fast does not mean that her attacks are strong. As such, it's still uncertain whether she could seize the platforms from other Peak Nascent Soul Realm participants and upgrade her own…
On the contrary, Lu Daochen did not worry much about her.
When he caught sight of the phoenix wings, he immediately wore a relieved look but in the next second, he let out a sigh, feeling ashamed of himself.
"What an excellent pair of wings. They are actually a combination of the attack, defense and speed enhancements. It's beyond my capabilities to forge such equipment… With this pair of wings, Wan'er would be able to withstand a Divine Transformation Realm expert and protect herself… Besides, with the help of the other seven Demon Generals of my Luo Yun Tribe, it won't be hard for Wan'er to upgrade her Spirit Platforms to the purple grade…"
Lu Daochen secretly passed down a command to his seven generals and permitted Lu Wan'er's action.
With that spiritual equipment, she was qualified to compete and strive for the chance to enter the second round!
As such, even if Ning Fan was late, he would still be qualified to participate!
In the middle of the arena, 25600 white grade Spirit Platforms floated in midair like flowing clouds.
Some of the cultivators began to rub their hands in excitement while some slightly bent down their back, as if they were getting ready for a sprint because the first match was finally going to begin!
As long as Lu Daochen uttered "start", all demon cultivators would have to dash towards the center of the arena and get on a white grade Spirit Platform.
In other words, when the match starts, only the first 25600 demon cultivators would be able to obtain a white grade Spirit Platform while the remaining cultivators would be disqualified!
Lu Daochen's voice reverberated across ten thousand li* away! Meanwhile, his body transformed into a cloud of green smoke and floated above.
When his voice was heard, one hundred thousand beams of light dashed towards the arena. The Divine Transformation Realm experts displayed their Instant Shift and almost immediately, every one of them were already standing on a white grade Spirit Platform.
Among the 145 traces of Divine Transformation Realm experts, Lu Wan'er moved in a trace of purple fiery cloud. Her speed was not any weaker than them and she also managed to occupy a white grade Spirit Platform for herself.
Inwardly, she felt a hint of joy.
As long as I have the phoenix wings, I will surely be able to help Ning Fan preserve his right to participate.
However, there was something she did not tell anyone else… The phoenix wings were indeed strong. That spiritual equipment could be said to be her best creation in her entire life. But it was also because of its strong power that she was unable to completely refine it by herself…
She had been waiting for Ning Fan to help her refine the pair of wings. Unfortunately, before the day Ning Fan come out from his seclusion, she had no choice but to activate this spiritual equipment in order to maintain his place in the match.
She felt a sharp pain in her heart and her face turned pale. No one knew how painful it would be to forcibly activate the phoenix wings…
However, she did not back off because of the pain she felt. Her current identity was Ning Fan's wife. She might not have an idea of how much bitterness and agony he had experienced in his previous journeys, but she understood that if she could not endure that pain, she would not be qualified to become his woman…
One breath, two breaths… When ten breaths had passed, the 25600 white grade Spirit Platforms were all occupied by demon cultivators.
Among them, there were 145 Divine Transformation Realm experts, 1900 Peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators and the remaining were all Late Nascent Soul Realm cultivators!
After everyone had set their feet on their respective Spirit Platforms, a light formation was activated at the center of the arena and stretched to a radius of five thousand li* long, encircling the cultivators within.
At the moment when the light formation emerged, the demon cultivators who were not standing on Spirit Platforms were instantly teleported outside the arena.
Each of the demon cultivators were stunned as they stared at the light formation after being sent outside of the arena.
Some of them refused to give in as their Spirit Platforms were seized by others due to carelessness and tried to break the light formation in order to dash into the arena again. But no matter how they attacked the formation, every single one of their attacks were easily deflected.
Any Nascent Soul Realm attack would not be able to even shake the formation. Even if it was a direct attack from a Late Divine Transformation Realm expert, the formation would not be completely shattered.
"A Mortal Void Realm formation! This Lu Daochen actually established such a terrifying formation on the Cloud Platform!"
Qu Shu's eyes widened for the first time and began to have a different opinion towards Lu Daochen.
This person's cultivation level might not be high, but his mastery in the Dao of Formations is far beyond my imagination.
Rumor has it that he is a brilliant man of wide learning. Formation, pills, divination, spirit augmentation, equipment refinement and so on. He is extremely proficient in every aspect. The rumor is really true after witnessing his capabilities myself. It's no wonder this person was chosen by the Spirit King Palace… Apparently, I've underestimated him earlier.
To the cultivators within the arena, the emergence of the light formation meant that the first match had finally begun!
The 25600 participants must go through a chaotic fight and seize each other's Spirit Platforms. By the end of the match, there would only be 200 participants left in the arena with purple grade Spirit Platforms!
Just as the light formation appeared, each and every one of the demon cultivators floating in midair of the arena initiated attacks at their opponents beside them!
Outside the Cloud Platform, a shadow of a man flashed past. When the mist in the air gradually dissipated, a young man who was clad in white robes revealed himself. His appearance was quiet and stealthy, not drawing any attention from the crowd.
Looking at the fights happening on the Cloud Platform, he put on a forced smile.
"I really didn't expect to accidentally ignite the power of True Yang while mastering the Parting Sun Spear and caused my second divine star, Eroding Yin, to gradually become completely full. Because of that, I was delayed for three days and missed the first match… Judging by the looks of it, Wan'er is participating on my behalf…"
The corners of his lips curved into a heartwarming smile.
Lu Wan'er treats me really well.
After witnessing Lu Wan'er's techniques, he felt a little less worried.
That spiritual equipment made from the fire phoenix's wings did not just enhance one's ability to fly. It also enhances one's offense and defense. The rapid speed of the wings would produce a wall of flames for protection while at the same time creating a sea of flames to inflict damage on her enemies.
A few Peak Nascent Soul Realm experts were already knocked out from their Spirit Platforms due to the attack of the sea of flames…
"After eleven years, Wan'er has gotten stronger…"
Ning Fan smiled. But in the next second, his smile faded and his eyes turned solemn.
A gust of wind blew past and it made one feel uneasy…
Among the participants, there was a silver-armored Demon General who shot Lu Wan'er a quick glance.
Although it was just a glance, his eyes were filled with … killing intent! At the next moment, his eyes became indifferent as usual.
"That man seems to be one of the Demon Generals from the Upper World under Wang Xiao's lead… That look… Is it just a wrong impression…" Ning Fan frowned and muttered to himself.

November 1, 2016
NAPOLEON, Ohio – An Ohio manufacturer of railroad track repair kits routinely exposed its workers amputation risks and other serious injuries as they serviced and maintained industrial core machine mixers, an inspection by the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration has found.
Acting on a complaint, OSHA inspectors found Railtech Boutet Inc. failed to develop procedures to power down and lockout operating parts, a process known as lockout/tag out. The agency cited the Napoleon-based employer for one willful, and 11 serious safety and health violations following its July 2016 investigation. In addition to the machine hazards, inspectors found workers exposed to air contaminants such as silica, noise and other hazards. Railtech Boutet faces proposed OSHA penalties of $159,631.
"All too often, OSHA finds employers are complacent with machine safety features and bypass them to speed production," said Kim Nelson, area director of OSHA's Toledo office. "Additionally, employers working with processes that can expose workers to silica, noise and other corrosive material must have procedures in place to minimize and monitor such exposure to ensure the long-term health of workers."
OSHA's inspection found the company failed to:
Conduct air monitoring for contaminants such as silica.
Implement a hearing conservation program.
Install gates and guardrails to prevent falls at ladderway openings and around dangerous equipment.
Guard operating parts of mixing equipment.
Cover electrical junction boxes, unused openings in circuit breaker panels.
Install an eyewash station near corrosive material.
Develop a hazard communication program and train employees about hazardous materials in use.
Store flammable liquid properly.
View current citations here.
Railtech Boutet Inc. has 15 business days from receipt of its citations and penalties to comply, request an informal conference with OSHA's area director, or contest the findings before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
To ask questions, obtain compliance assistance, file a complaint, or report workplace hospitalizations, fatalities or situations posing imminent danger to workers, the public should call OSHA's toll-free hotline at 800-321-OSHA (6742) or the Toledo Area Office at (419) 259-7542.
Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, employers are responsible for providing safe and healthful workplaces for their employees. OSHA's role is to ensure these conditions for America's working men and women by setting and enforcing standards, and providing training, education and assistance.

pillowcase dress pattern free sewing,If you rest on your part or stomach, there is definitely a great chance your cushion is leading to wrinkles on your encounter. These wrinkles, called rest lines, are common, however preventable. In this article, I will clarify how sleep placement can increase wrinkle formation on the face and various ways to decrease or remove these aging results. Custom Pillow Covers
Surrounded By Assholes Pillow Case
If you regularly are located on your aspect or tummy, or lay in the fetal placement while sleeping, it's very most likely that your face is broke into your cushion on a regular basis. This "face smushing," as I like to call it, causes your pores and skin to scrunch-up or wrinkle, especially around your eyes and cheeks. After years of sleeping like this, driving your skin into this position night after night, you will form wrinkles on the face or deepen wrinkles that had formed already. If you prefer one side over the other while sleeping, you'll start to notice that the wrinkles on that side are more pronounced. celestial pillow case waterproof.

Ack! Rest Lines? I possess to get worried about sleep lines now??
custom photo collage pillowcase,The good news is, sleep lines are entirely preventable. Even if you do have wrinkles on your face right now, you can change certain habits to at least stop sleep related wrinkles from getting worse:
U shaped pillow cases australia,
If you love your pillow and sleep position and aren't looking for a change, but are still concerned about sleep wrinkles, anti-aging patches might worth looking into. They work by holding the skin flat and avoiding excessive "face smush," even if you do sleep on your side or stomach. I recommend one of two popular brands "DermaGen" or "Frownies." how to make a pillowcase into a bag.
There is also a brand called "SilcSkin" that makes a "Decollette Pad" that is made to be worn on the chest to help prevent wrinkles there. Alternately, you could roll a cloth and place it under a tight fitting tank top or soft bra to keep your chest in a less smushed up position while sleeping.
Delightful Rue Throw Pillow Case
Once Upon a Time, I thought of the ingenious idea of creating a pillow for side sleepers that supports the head and neck without putting pressure on the face. Unfortunately, my idea was so ingenious that someone had already thought of it. Darn it.
My search to see if anyone had thought of my idea is actually what inspired me to write this article. I found a handful of pillow styles online, but the pillow below is the top anti-wrinkle pillows for side-sleepers available on Amazon.

OK – this is VERY long – please bear with me…
The first time I remember noticing my "fat calves" was in my freshman year of college. I had put on the freshman 40 pounds (as opposed to the freshman 15!). My parents were quite critical of me, and they both commented "Look at your calves, they are so swollen!"
Well, as a bullet-proof 19 year old, I ignored their concern.
Years went by and as I moved into my late 20s, I really started to notice the "hump" on my left calf just above my ankle. Being totally clueless, I consulted a cosmetic surgeon about having liposuction on my calf. He was supposed to call me back after our consultation, but never did. God was protecting me from that nightmare!
Other health problems took center stage as I struggled with infertility, miscarriage, and finally the birth of my son. Then as a busy mom I just ignored my ugly fat legs and covered them up with pants. We adopted our second son, and my hectic life continued. Any time I briefly pointed my legs out to my gynecologist or internal medicine doctor, it was acknowledged as fat. Well, it did seem to "bounce back" like fat!
So here I am at 41 – helping my mom out after double knee replacement surgery. She was referred to MLD therapy at Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas and was a little apprehensive. So I went with her to her first appointment. As the therapist (Wendy) started to describe Lymphedema, I thought "That sounds like what is wrong with my leg!" Wendy kindly let me lift up my long pants and as soon as she saw my leg she said "YOU are the one who needs to be here!"
Thankfully, my internal medicine doctor realized that more attention was needed. When I went to see him, he referred me to a vascular surgeon (Dr. Dennis Gable). Dr. Gable took one look at my legs and said – yes, you have Lymphedema in BOTH legs. After ruling out any further complications with a CAT scan and vascular sonogram, Dr. Gable recommended me for therapy.
Now, I sit here 4 weeks after starting with some very good results! I have been wrapping my legs from first thing in the morning until right as I get in bed at night. Since my ankles and feet were not as affected as my calves, the bandages were digging into my ankles and keeping me awake at night -- even with extra padding.
So far, I have lost 2 liters of fluid from my left leg and 1.5 liters from my right! After reading some of the stories on this site, I feel extremely blessed that my condition has not been worse. However, I want you all to know that I am praying for your health daily. I truly believe in the power of prayer.
It is such a relief to know that I am not alone. When I start getting stressed out about the bandages and how much they are slowing me down, I remember that the alternative could be so much worse had I not discovered the true nature of my problem.
Now I am just counting the days until I get my support hose. Who knew I would be excited about that!
I hope I have helped in some small way by sharing and I really appreciate this message board. Thanks!

Based on this story, it looks like the U.S. has a lot of work to do when it comes to energy efficiency.
The U.S. ranks 13th out of the 16 largest economies in energy efficiency, according to areport released today from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy, an environmental nonprofit advocacy group.
The U.S. scored poorly for a number of reasons, including relatively low use of and investment in public transit, a high number of miles traveled in inefficient vehicles as well as high energy usage in both commercial and residential sectors. A lack of energy savings targets and efficiency standards also played a role, the report's authors said.
This poor ranking is unfortunate for a number of reasons. For one, as Tigercomm's Bridgette Borst reported in late June, a Johnson Controls energy efficiency forum concluded that not only is "energy efficiency is a great way to save money, reduce carbon emissions [and] put lots of people to work in good-paying, local jobs," it is also "one of the key four building blocks that states will be able to comply with the part 111-D Rule" (the EPA's recently-announced proposal for reductions of carbon pollution from existing fossil fuel power plants).
Second, Americans overwhelmingly support energy efficiency improvements, so this is a political "no brainer."
Third, as an International Energy Agency report in late 2013 found that energy efficiency is a "huge opportunity going unrealised," with "investments in energy efficiency…still less than two‐thirds of the level of fossil fuel subsidies."
Finally, with regard to the enormous potential of energy efficiency, see Institute for Building Efficiency's Jennifer Layke: Insights on Communicating the Enormous Potential of Energy Efficiency and Is energy efficiency condemned to be the "eat your peas" technology?, in which we note that Rocky Mountain Institute Chairman and Chief Scientist Amory Lovins has found that"adopting efficiency technologies aggressively yet cost-effectively, yield[s] at least a 12% annual real rate of return."
Given the points listed above, there's really no excuse for the U.S. to rank 13th out of the 16 largest economies in terms of energy efficiency. To the contrary, we should be pushing hard to move towards the top of those rankings, and to do so as quickly as possible.
