Growers Supply's odds and ends – Strange plant facts and stories
To distract from the cold weather and impending end of the growing season, we took some time to look into the stranger side of horticulture, in order to discuss some fun plant-related facts and stories that many people have never heard. We have to admit, some of these are bizarre and in some cases a little hard to believe, but we promise we aren't making any of them up. We hope you enjoy our plant oddities, and if you happen to have any lesser-known fun facts or stories, let us know by leaving a comment!
A bouquet of apples?
Did you know that peaches, pears, apricots, strawberries and apples are all members of the Rosaceae (Rose) family? That's right, all of these delicious fruits that we use for pies, cobblers and more are all related to the elegant flower that we present to our loved ones. You can actually tell that these fruits are members of the Rosaceae family simply by looking at them. Plants within the rose family produce oval shaped leaves that are arranged in a spiral pattern, and flowering plants in this family tend to have a cup-like shape, so you may have already made this connection just by sight. Next Valentine's Day, feel free to skip the flower lines and head right over to a fruit stand to pick up a dozen peaches, pears or apples instead. We of course wouldn't recommend buying a dozen apples over roses on Valentine's Day, but now you'll always know that the two are in fact related.
Putting family first
Researchers have discovered that plants can actually recognize and communicate with members of their own species. Studies have shown that many plants can determine if surrounding plants are related to them or not, and if they are, they will share nutrients with one another in order to grow at a similar pace. The jewelweed is an excellent example of this. It has been found that when placed in a pot with an unrelated plant, both the jewelweed and competing plant will grow as quickly as possible in an attempt to hoard all the nutrition. However, if two jewelweeds are placed in a pot alongside each other, the two will not only grow at a reduced and similar speed, but they will actually grow smaller overall in order to accommodate for each others' nutritional needs.
This is not the only way that plants can communicate with one another however. It has also been found that a willow tree is able to warn surrounding willow trees of bug infestations. When one tree has a bug infestation, it releases a pheromone, which is tough for the bugs to digest. When this pheromone is released into the air, surrounding willow trees detect it and begin building up their own supply of protective pheromones. With surrounding trees producing the same unappealing pheromone, invasive bugs and caterpillars are forced to leave, keeping the particular set of trees safe from further damage.
The priceless tulip
Tulips are one of the most popular flowers grown. With their brilliant colors, easy care and springtime bloom, it's easy to enjoy everything about them. However, no matter how much you may enjoy your backyard tulips, you'll never enjoy them as much as the people of Holland did in the 1637. During this time, tulips became so popular in Holland that the bulbs were more valuable than gold. This time period is appropriately referred to as "tulip mania" or "tulipomania", and the bulbs of these springtime beauties were in such high demand that they actually caused the collapse of the Dutch economy. It has been reported that during this time, a collector of tulips once traded 1,000 pounds of cheese, four oxen, eight pigs, twelve sheep, a bed and a suit of clothes just for a single Viceroy tulip bulb. The tulip craze was short lived and came to an abrupt end, but the term "tulip mania" is still used by investors and financial advisors to describe a major financial bubble.
The loneliest tree
Many may know the story of L'Arbre du Ténéré, and while this story seems mythological, we once again assure you that it is very much true. The Tree of Ténéré, as it is pronounced in English, was the most isolated tree in the entire world. The next closest tree to it was an incredible 250 miles away. Located in the Ténéré region of the Sahara desert, this lone tree became a landmark for caravans and was so well known in the area, that it was actually marked on maps for a reference point. L'Arbre du Ténéré was nearly magical, a lone survivor in a land of desolation. However, L'Arbre du Ténéré is unfortunately no longer casting a solitary shadow on the barren Sahara floor. In 1973, a truck driver was allegedly driving drunk through the Ténéré region of the Sahara, and crashed into the landmark. Following the accident, L'Arbre du Ténéré was removed from its original location and placed in the Niger National Museum, where it can still be seen to this day. A metal sculpture has since taken the place of the once loneliest tree, and visitors come from all around to visit the landmark.

8 May ~ At the start of 1986 Liverpool's title challenge was stumbling as they, along with defending champions Everton, Chelsea and West Ham chased Manchester United at the top of the table. On January 12 Liverpool travelled to Watford – who they host at Anfield in the Premier League today – having not won for over a month. The Hornets, whose team included John Barnes, were comfortable in mid-table having come runners-up to Liverpool three seasons earlier.
The match was an exciting one, with Kenny Jackett firing a long-range shot past Bruce Grobbelaar to put Watford 1-0 up after 18 minutes. It took until just before half time for Liverpool to draw level, when they capitalised on an error in Watford's midfield and Paul Walsh finished into the roof of the net.
The second half saw Liverpool camped in Watford's half and it was Ian Rush, who had been going through a poor patch of form, who put his team ahead with a powerful shot after neat control in the box on 75 minutes. Five minutes before time Walsh sealed the win, though Jan Lohman did get a goal back after Grobbelaar spilled the ball a minute later.
Liverpool won 34 points from a possible 36 in the final 12 games of the season to overhaul both Manchester United and Everton and win the title, while they also took the FA Cup and Football League Super Cup (arranged as a kind of compensation for English clubs' banning from Europe) with victory over their city rivals in both finals. Watford finished 12th and were relegated two season later.

Good Luck to Ramsgate Arts Primary from Tracey Emin
World renowned contemporary artist Tracey Emin has wished Ramsgate Arts Primary pupils good luck for the school's official opening ceremony.
The Turner Prize winner, who comes from Margate, was invited to the official opening day at RAPS on Friday 20th April 2018 – one of the school 'houses' is named in her honour.
Although Tracey will be travelling and is unavailable for the ceremony, RAPS pupils may get their own special visit from her. She told them she would "very much like to pop in to visit the art department at a later date," when she replied to them.
She thanked pupils for writing her "a lovely letter" and wished them "every success with the event and best of luck."
Head of School Nick Budge said:
"We are thrilled Tracey Emin has replied and it is brilliant that she hopes to come in and see our art department – that would be something so special for our arts school.
It is a pity she cannot be with us to mark the official opening, but we understand she has a hugely busy diary that is prepared many months in advance."
Tracey Emin is joined by three other international stars from the world of art, music, drama and dance as the inspiration for the names of the school house system.
The others are acclaimed dancer, writer and television celebrity Darcey Bussell (Bussell House); broadcaster, actor, DJ, and musician Idris Elba (Elba House); and choral conductor and broadcaster Gareth Malone (Malone House).
Mr Budge added:
"We chose the House names to reflect inspirational and innovative people from the arts world to be our 'House Heroes'.
"The children are very aware that Tracey Emin comes from Margate and that she has very close ties with the area and hopes to establish a studio in the town.
Our school has a strong link with the Turner Contemporary Gallery at Margate and we know Tracey Emin is very heavily involved with it too."
Ramsgate Arts Primary School is part of the Viking Academy Trust with Upton Junior School at Broadstairs and Chilton Primary School, Ramsgate.
Although Ramsgate Arts Primary School has been running since September, the official opening is on Friday 20th April 2018, marking the completing of the last part of the project, a dance studio.
Thank you, Ramsgate Arts Primary School, for sending us your good news. What an honour for Tracey Emin; Darcey Bussell; Idris Elba and Gareth Malone to be celebrated by your school and to inspire our next generations. It takes a great deal of hardwork, dedication, practice and creativity to have reached the pinnacles of their careers and we can all take some valuable lessons from them.
we bet you were all chuffed to bits to receive a response from Tracey Emin and we're sure that she will come to visit you as she has promised.
In the meantime, we look forward to celebrating your official launch with you on Friday 20th April 2018 – since opening for lessons in September you have been flourishing and we are excited to watch your progress. Thank you for making such a difference to our young people.
Good Luck & Congratulations!

The Native: General Elections – When Everyone Knows Everything
2010-09-16. Published in Life in Gothenburg
by Nils Pasi
There was a time when you simply did not speak openly about which political party you supported. That has changed. Today, talking openly about it is not uncommon, nor is it particularly unusual to see it mentioned in interviews in news papers and similar. There was also a time when a very large portion of the Swedish population voted in the general elections. That has not changed, although it has recently become quite popular to vote in advance, whereas it used to be done on the Election Day.
Personally, I know exactly how I shall vote. Which party I should vote for, however, I shall not say. When I shall vote, I cannot say even if I wanted to, for I have not the foggiest. And that is pretty much the way it is every year. I am not politically active, nor am I particularly interested in politics, but once every four years, I will turn on the TV, watch a couple of debates between the party leaders of some of the major parties in Sweden, and afterwards I will decide how to vote. I guess others do the same, for there always seems to be a surge of political interest around general elections. Everybody suddenly becomes an expert on all things political, and asserts quite boldly exactly what is wrong with Sweden, and how it came to be thus. Very often, you will also be told how Sweden can rectify the problems by handing over power to this or that party, or we can completely wreck the country by handing another party the seat of power.
But I find the world much more complex than that. Politicians are rarely good or evil – they are humans. And just like all humans, they have their weaknesses and faults, but also strengths and visions. No one, I would argue, decided to enter politics aiming to destroy Sweden. I would imagine a politician's work to be about as tough as it gets in Sweden, especially if the person happens to occupy a public role. They are professionals, and they all have their own ideas on how the country is best run. It is up to us, the voters, to listen to their ideas and explanations and to chose which path we think is best for our country. But frankly, I am sick and tired of hearing people assert how this and that party or politician is determined to ruin it all – it simply is not true. If this is the way it is to be, it was better when people kept their political affiliation to themselves and the voting was limited to one day. That, at least, is what I, a native, think once every four years at the Election Day draws near.

This address explores a broad framework for thinking sociologically about emancipatory alternatives to dominant institutions and social structures, especially capitalism. The framework is grounded in two foundational propositions: (1) Many forms of human suffering and many deficits in human flourishing are the result of existing institutions and social structures. (2) Transforming existing institutions and social structures in the right way has the potential to substantially reduce human suffering and expand the possibilities for human flourishing.
Effectively teaching sociological theories to undergraduate students is challenging. Students often enroll in theory courses due to major requirements, not personal interest. Consequently, many students approach the study of theory with anxiety. This study examined the effectiveness of an experiential learning activity designed to teach Karl Marx's theory of alienation. Based on pretest/posttest surveys, responses to open-ended questions, and observational data, students reported that the activity helped them gain a clearer understanding of Marx.
My impression of Marx's understanding of theory and praxis is that the transition from capitalism to socialism is contingent on the historical circumstances at any given point in time. The logic of capital creates certain preconditions that set the stage for the transition, but the transition is by no means guaranteed to unfold, or unfold in a clearly predictable manner. One of the preconditions is the concentration of capital into the hands of few and the general tendency toward increasing relative poverty of workers.
More than 5,500 sociologists will convene in Montreal this August to explore scientific research relating to social inequality and many other topics, as part of the American Sociological Association's 112th Annual Meeting. This year's theme, "Culture, Inequalities, and Social Inclusion across the Globe," draws attention to the nexus of culture, inequalities, and group boundaries in order to promote greater social inclusion and resilience, collective well-being, and solidarity in Canada, the United States, and globally.
John R. Logan, "Relying on the Census in Urban Social Science" with responses from: Robert M. Adelman, "Going Small: Urban Social Science in the Era of Big Data City & Community Forum on Census Data"; Samantha Friedman, "Census Data and its Use in the Study of Residential Inequality" and Karyn Lacy, "Problems, Puzzles, and the Production of Knowledge: Harnessing Census Data in the Age of Trump"
The diversity of the U.S. urban population has increased dramatically in recent decades, yet the processes through which population diversity may be driving neighborhood change remain insufficiently understood. Building on Claude Fischer's subcultural theory of urbanism and other classic sociological insights, this article makes the case that population diversity shapes the character of place and drives the spatial clustering of artists and art organizations.
Rural America has seemingly been "left behind" in an era of massive immigration and growing diversity. The arrival of new immigrants has exposed many rural whites, perhaps for the first time, to racial and ethnic minority populations. Do rural whites increasingly live in racially diverse nonmetropolitan places? Or is white exposure to racially diverse populations expressed in uneven patterns of residential integration from place to place? We link microdata from the Panel Survey of Income Dynamics (1989‐to‐2009 waves) to place data identified in the 1990–2010 decennial censuses.
Using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics and two U.S. decennial censuses, we describe trends in blacks' and whites' exposure to other‐race neighbors between 2001 and 2011 and then identify the proximate sources of these trends. Our results show that whites experienced an increase in their exposure to black and other minority neighbors and a concurrent decrease in same‐race neighbors. Blacks' exposure to both black and white neighbors declined somewhat between 2001 and 2011, while their exposure to nonblack minority neighbors increased substantially.
This article reveals the grounds on which individuals form perceptions of disorder. Integrating ideas about implicit bias and statistical discrimination with a theoretical framework on neighborhood racial stigma, our empirical test brings together personal interviews, census data, police records, and systematic social observations situated within some 500 block groups in Chicago. Observed disorder predicts perceived disorder, but racial and economic context matter more.

On 19 October, a group of researchers from The Initiative for Cryptocurrencies and Contracts (IC3) published a report on why they believe that the Blockchain cannot ensure the transparency and integrity of the entire electoral process. In fact, the report says that the blockchain could aggravate some of the current challenges facing national elections.
The four main reasons
The researchers Ari Juels, Ittay Eyal and Oded Naor of IC3 outlined four main reasons in the Business Insider why they believe that blockchain cannot improve the election process.
One reason was the failure of computers and the Internet. They can collapse, be destroyed or hacked by malicious actors, jeopardizing the voting data. The mere possibility of it happening dilutes the trust.
Internet blackouts could prevent people from voting and systems that are not regularly updated are susceptible to hacker attacks and even if updated the system could be threatened by an undetected vulnerability.
The third concern was that a blockchain voting system would depend on computer-aided devices instead of people. Although the blockchain can safely record a vote, it is still possible that this vote could be changed by an infected device before it joins the chain.
Some developers of this new online voting system aren't supposed to make their code accessible to the public. This means that an independent party will not be able to check the code and check for security issues before the electoral system goes live.
The last issue, says IC3, is the ability to buy votes in a purely online system. Strict criminal sanctions and secret ballots currently make it difficult to bribe people for votes, but the article claims that an online voting system would make it a lot easier. People could be bribed with untraceable cryptocurrency to cast their votes in a certain way.
Online voting already in use
West Virginia introduced a blockchain-based mobile voting system, which allows soldiers stationed abroad to vote at home. West Virginia Secretary of State Mac Warner stresses that the app is safe and has undergone rigorous testing, including an audit of the code. Security measures include biometrics and facial recognition.
Also, Switzerland has successfully completed its first test of a local blockchain-based voting system. According to SwissInfo, a Swiss news agency, the Swiss city of Zug conducted a test of mobile blockchain-based voting in July of this year. Although the trial run was successful, participation was still low.


text: Just How Competent are You in Chinese? Learning Chinese does not just involve mastering the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing; there are also four types of 'competence' required in order to speak Chinese well. 1. Formal Linguistic Competence The key word for formal linguistic competence is accuracy in using Chinese. When you pay attention to correctness, you are learning formal linguistic competence. You have this kind of competence when you know and are able to say words and form sentences correctly, i.e. when you use the correct pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar. Some personality traits do this better than others. The perfectionist - who is always focusing on accuracy - does this well. However, the person who says, "Well, they get my meaning - that's all that matters" isn't bothered by those inaccuracies that so pain and haunt the perfectionist. 2. Discourse Competence It isn't enough simply to learn sentences in isolation. You must also know how to join sentences to make a complete whole that can be easily comprehended by Chinese people. You have discourse competence in Chinese, for example, when you are able to tell a story, write a letter or give a lecture 'the Chinese way'. Not only are your sentences accurate but you also know how to make them hang together as Chinese do. My own problem here is that I enjoy lecturing, logically developing my theme step-by-step. So I have to continually remind myself that Chinese enjoy stories and illustrations, and that if my Chinese audience is to feel comfortable with my approach, I must include lots of stories and illustrations too. 3. Sociolinguistic Competence When you learn to converse in Chinese, it is very important that you not only learn to speak accurately and use the correct style, but also to speak in a way that is appropriate for you according to both your status and the status of those you are speaking to, as well as the topic being discussed, and the place where it is discussed. As one person put it: "We don't just say anything to anyone for any purpose. We don't just talk at any time or in any place or by any means or in any way. We only talk to appropriate people about appropriate things for appropriate purposes. We talk at appropriate times in appropriate places by appropriate means in appropriate ways." You have sociolinguistic competence, therefore, when you know and are able to use all the social rules about who speaks what, when, where, to whom, and why. The key word for sociolinguistic competence is cultural appropriateness in understanding and using Chinese in communication. For example, people's titles are much more important in Asia than in the West. Also family members call each other by their kinship titles, not simply by their given names. From our western background, this might all seem somewhat unnecessary or strange, but we must understand that using the proper title in an Asian context demonstrates courtesy and respect. Even common greetings, such as "Have you eaten yet?" might seem silly and somewhat irrelevant to us, but if we want to become an accepted member of the community (and hopefully we do), then it is important that we greet people 'the Chinese way'. The person who is very empathetic and sensitive to other people's feelings naturally pays more attention to cultural appropriateness because they are continually trying to put themselves in the other person's shoes. The rest of us can learn to do this by being keen observers of other people's behavior and by cultivating an insatiable curiosity that keeps asking "Why?", "How?", etc.. Reading books on Chinese culture will also help tremendously. 4. Strategic Competence Finally, you must also know how to adjust your language instantaneously for maximum effect. In communication, this may mean: a) adjusting your language (e.g. by speaking more softly/loudly or faster/slower than you usually do) to make your message more effective, or b) using appropriate communication strategies in order to get around communication breakdowns, such as paraphrasing something when you do not know the exact word, or using gestures. You have strategic competence when you are able to understand and use a whole range of verbal and non-verbal communication strategies effectively. This, of course, takes time; but be observant, have an insatiable curiosity, and get excited when you discover some new facet of Chinese cultural behavior! From the beginning of your Chinese language studies, it is important, therefore, to aim to learn all four types of competencies. Be very careful not to pay so much attention to formal linguistic competence - especially if you (or your teacher) have a natural perfectionist streak - that you fail to focus on the other three. If you fail to work on all four, you will be viewed as an uncultured foreigner and fail in your goal of becoming an accepted member of the Chinese community.

Fun Online Worm Game for Kids & Family
Oil Worm is a bright and bubbly kids' game where you have to guide your oil worm through the forest while collecting stars and avoiding obstacles, to get to the next level. This wiggly worm travels at high speeds and has fantastic jumping capabilities! In order to pass each level, you need to avoid the bad and dangerous barriers by springing up into the air at the perfect moment, and trying to land elegantly on safe ground! This fast-paced, fun-filled, worm-jumping adventure is hours of addicting entertaining! Have a go; see if you can control this crazy little creature! Good luck Worm Master!
OK, you have to guide this slick and slimy character over the hills and through the scary forest. Most of the time the oil worm crawls (like all worms). This is automatic. Here's where you come in! You can make him jump – blast off up into the air! You need to try and collect as many stars as possible and avoid all the dangers. Earn 2 points for collecting silver stars. Earn 5 points for collecting gold stars. Dangerous obstacles to avoid are: falling into an orange abyss, running into fire and running into a ghost. Jump up and over to avoid obstacles! To avoid ghosts, you can either jump over them, or since they float, you can sometimes go under them. You only encounter ghosts when you get to levels 6 and 7. Every time you fail to avoid an obstacle, you lose oil from your oilcan. You add oil to your oilcan when your worm runs into one of the small oilcans scattered throughout the game. Every time you pass a level - oil is automatically added to your can. Keep a sharp eye on your oilcan level - because once this runs dry, it's game over for the funny little worm! OK ready for some super slick and slimy work capers? Enjoy!
How To Play: There are seven fun levels to play and you earn bonus points for completing a level quickly. Try and earn enough points to reach the next level before you run out of oil! To Jump, you can either use the left button on your computer mouse (and click anywhere in the game screen) or press the (UP) arrow key on your computer keyboard. You can see your Oil Can Level, Score and Time Bonus at the top of the game screen. To pause the game, click on the "Pause" icon located in the top right corner of the screen.
Tips: Try to land on bubbles! When you land on a bubble, the worm bounces from bubble to bubble and does not fall into the abyss. This is important when there is a very wide abyss. The only thing you need to do is land on that first bubble. The rest of the bounces will happen automatically. Happy crawling and bouncing Little Critter!

The State of Kansas' proof-of-citizenship law, which has generated controversy and led to suggestions that the state would set up a two-track registration system, is finally seeing some movement on the implementation side. The Lawrence Journal-World reports that the state Department of Revenue is finally able to share documents which may help some voters escape the "suspense" list:
Election officials reported Monday they are using a recent release of documents to whittle down the number of registrations in what is called "suspense."
The Kansas Department of Revenue recently sent to the Kansas Secretary of State's Office approximately 6,100 Division of Motor Vehicle records that contained citizenship documents, according to a memo from the Kansas Secretary of State's Office.
"These records should reduce the number of 'suspense' records due to lack of proof of citizenship," the memo stated.
The Secretary of State's Office did not have information on how many incomplete voter registrations these documents cleared up, but Douglas County received its batch of 438 records Monday afternoon. It processed 50 of the records and was able to finalize the registrations of 16 people, according to Douglas County Clerk Jamie Shew.
The problem, as Johnson County's Brian Newby explained a while back, is that the state's ability to process proof of citizenship lags behind the requirement that voters provide it. As a result, some Kansas voters haven't made it onto the rolls:
A new law took effect Jan. 1 that requires people who are registering to vote to show proof of U.S. citizenship such as a birth certificate.
Supporters of the law, including Secretary of State Kris Kobach, minimized the hurdle this would produce, but 18,054 voter registrations are incomplete because of the lack of proof of citizenship.
Some have alleged that people who have applied for driver's licenses and voter registration have fully complied with the legal requirement for both but have been thwarted by a faulty computer system.
Now, however, the state agency with access to those documents is finally making some of them available to election officials:
Revenue Department spokeswoman Jeannine Koranda said the process of moving thousands of documents to the secretary of state's office was worked out recently with the department's private contractor MorphoTrust.
"As you know, in 2008, everyone getting a new Kansas driver's license has been required to show proof of legal presence such as a birth certificate, passport or green card. In 2011, the department began scanning those documents," Koranda said in an email.
"The department isn't pulling out information for people who registered to vote specifically, we actually don't keep records of who registered to vote in our offices. We are working with MorphoTrust to go through our historic data, all the records collected since 2011, and convert it into a readable format that can then be sent securely to the Secretary of State's office.
"We are not sending over personal information, simply the information already sent over for voter registration purposes and verifying what document we captured. The Secretary of State's office can then use the information to help complete voter registrations," Koranda said.
Here's hoping that the new program is successful; whether or not you agree with proof of citizenship, it is truly unfortunate for voters – and the election officials who serve them – when individuals who have done everything required of them are still kept in "suspense." I'll be curious to see how well these documents help registrants escape the suspense list and make it onto the rolls.
This is also an important reminder of the key role of implementation in election policy; legislators at every level need to remember that simply enacting a law is rarely enough – especially when the law requires state and local agencies to share data when they rarely (or never) have before.

Heart-Shaped Box
By Joe Hill
Narrated by Stephen Lang / 11 hours 3 minutes
"Wild, mesmerizing, perversely witty….A Valentine from hell."
—Janet Maslin, New York Times
The publication of Joe Hill's beautifully textured, deliciously scary debut novel Heart-Shaped Box was greeted with the sort of overwhelming critical acclaim that is rare for a work of skin-crawling supernatural terror. It was cited as a Best Book of the Year by Atlanta magazine, the Tampa Tribune, the St. Louis Post Dispatch, and the Village Voice, to name but a few. Award-winning, #1 New York Times bestselling Neil Gaiman of The Sandman, The Graveyard Book, and Anansi Boys fame calls Joe Hill's story of a jaded rock star haunted by a ghost he purchased on the internet, "relentless, gripping, powerful." Open this Heart-Shaped Box from two-time Bram Stoker Award-winner Hill if you dare and see what all the well-deserved hoopla is about.

Girl Wants Boyfriend To Meet Her Parents, He Realizes He Slept With Her Mom Weeks Ago
Well that must be pretty awkward!
Every guy knows that nerve-wracking feeling of meeting their girlfriend's parents for the first time. No one knows what to expect during such meetings and sometimes, all you hope for is that it wouldn't be awkward at least.
Well some guys can be pretty unlucky. Case in point, this 21-year-old Reddit user shared his disastrous experience when he realized that his girlfriend's mom was the same woman he had previously slept with.
The story began when he went out with friends to watch a rock show.
He confessed in a Reddit post that has since gone viral:
"A couple of months ago, I was at this nice rock bar with a live band; drinking with a big group of work friends.
"I notice a blonde woman has glanced over a few times so I go up to her, make some small-talk and ask for her number as I couldn't really leave my friends. We text a little bit but nothing came of it."
Eventually, the two met again, took time to drink, and ended up sleeping together at her place.
He realized she was "a lot older" than him but decided not to give it much thought.
Several weeks after that, he met a 19-year-old lady on Tinder and they quickly hit it off.
She later invited him to their home so she can introduce him to her parents. Just imagine his shock and surprise when they ended up in the same door where he previously had a hook-up.
"My heart sank when I watched this lovely girl turn to face me, say 'This is me', while gesturing to the same door that I went through for a cheap one night stand."
To this guy's credit, he immediately admitted to her about it right there and then.
"She was shocked. Very shocked when she realized that I wasn't joking when I got her mom's name right.
"I knew she was level-headed from our first few dates so thankfully she actually understood and didn't attack me for it.
"We do agree we can't keep seeing each other (duh) but I really did like her, which can be rare for me, so it f***ing sucks.
"She didn't mention her parents marriage and I don't want to ask. I also don't know how the house was free a couple of months ago. All I know is I f****d up."
Fitness Trainer Draws Comics That Accurately Depict The Struggles Women Face In Staying Fit
The struggle is real when it comes to fitness!
Although everyone knows the importance of staying fit, the unfortunate truth is that only a few actually make the effort towards making it a part of their lifestyle. Getting into shape is never easy and requires a lot of sacrifice. That's why some people who have started hitting the gym and eating healthy eventually decide to stop and go back to their old ways.

Preacher Saying Women Deserve Rape Gets Hit With Baseball Bat And People Say He Deserved It

- The news went viral after it was shared on social media where people reversed usual victim-shaming lines to refer to the man.
- An innocent woman was arrested for the attack and immediately got the support of fellow women and the LGBTQ community.

Rajan setting his sights on table tennis triumph in Rio
A HORFIELD athlete has his sights set on joining the British table tennis Paralympic squad to compete in Rio 2016.
A HORFIELD athlete has his sights set on joining the British table tennis Paralympic squad to compete in Rio 2016.
However, in order for 27-year-old Rajan Waterman to be selected for the team, he needs to secure enough funding to compete in international tournaments. Competing internationally will help Rajan gain points on the world ranking list.
He needs to be ranked in the top 16 players for his category to automatically qualify for Rio.
Rajan started playing table tennis for fun at the age of 11 with his father.
By 14, he began training several times a week with Harry Venner, an English international who coached the Australian Olympic team.
Three years later, Rajan was involved in a car accident, which crushed his hand, leaving him with two fingers and a thumb.
But the accident did not stop him from pursuing his passion for playing table tennis. Five years after the accident, Rajan joined the Bristol table tennis academy, training five days a week.
He straps the bat to his hand, using Velcro for extra help when gripping the bat.
He has been competing seriously for four years.
Rajan said: "My inspiration was most definitely my father as he was a competitive table tennis player - like father, like son I guess.
"He also took me to watch some high level players at a county tournament and I was amazed at the speed and grace they moved with, so that was really inspirational."
He added: "My coach Choi Sze To at Bristol Table Tennis Academy has also really changed my life for the better, with her positivity and kindness - a truly amazing woman, although I wish she wouldn't push me so hard sometimes!"
Rajan has won numerous medals at the Michael Hawkesworth championships - a national competition for Paralympic athletes.
Last year, he achieved bronze in the men's open - the athlete who came second was a silver medallist in the London 2012 Paralympic games.
He recently won six events in Disability Grand Prix tournaments in Liverpool and Slough. He beat six international Great Britain players along the way.
Rajan is currently ranked number one in Great Britain for class 9 - a category for players with mild impairments of playing arm.
He trains at Bristol Table Tennis Academy, as part of SGS College, five days a week - some days twice a day.
Eighteen hours are spent on the table each week, and he fits in gym sessions around his training programme. Most weekends are spent competing in tournaments.
He said: "I have beaten the GB International world ranked number 24 on the last four occasions I have played him, so I truly believe at this moment my standard of play is within the top 15 in the world.
"If I can get funding to enter international competitions and prove to the British Table Tennis Association and UK Sport that I deserve to be on the World Class Funding Programme then I whole heartedly know that I am capable of achieving a qualifying spot for Rio and pushing for a medal position."
Over the next two years, Rajan will need to train five hours a day, five days a week in order to be a the right level to compete for medals.

Your $25 will pay for food. Gus thanks you!
Gus is a happy guy of about 18 months. He's average sized and wears a nice bi-colored coat.
Gus is good with other dogs, which was immediately apparent during his evaluation - an over zealous 1 year old jumped all over the top of Gus, and Gus didn't react whatsoever.
Gus was great allowing all the touchy feeley that goes on during the eval. We're happy to help find him a great new family. He does jump up on people, so we would suggest no small children in his future family until he is nicely trained.
Gus is a level 3 dog in the east bay. We're just getting to know him, so check back shortly for his update.

Striving to make answers to vague AskMe questions more helpful and clear
In two recent AskMe threads (Non obvious things you shouldn't say to women and a similar about men), vague and general questions were asked. The community response wandered all over the map from very good, to not so good, where individual dislikes were conflated to be something all of certain subgroup dislke (1, 2). I think this is a problem that not only degrades the tone of the site in general and AskMe in particular, but also can confuse the asker. So I'm putting this issue before the community to see if the community views this as a problem and if so, discuss ways to mitigate it. [more inside]

Someone know how we can add mew colors?
I use the JLCollection and add 140 colors more but i don't how we can change it after.
Thank you
Or someone have a color.dat with the new colors?
I don't think it ever worked correctly. Yes it will allow new colors but it seems to corrupt the exe. I only tried once so maybe it works.
Once applied they should show in cm0102.exe. Currently there are only 34
Champman0102.co.uk Facebook Page12000 followers and rising
Thank you for your answer.
If you can put the 140 colors, please send me your folder or explain me, how i can do it.
You will need to right click on your Championship Manager 01-02 folder, select Security, click Edit and change Everyone or Users to allow Modify. Is should run fine then

NOTE: This applies 32bit dlls and require site application pools to be configured for 32bit.
It's by habit that we simply browse to the directory where a DLL is placed usually "C:\Windows\system32" and type "regsvr32 mynewobject.dll" only to find that doesn't work or you receive an error.
To register a dll in the 64bit Windows follow these steps:
1. Copy the DLL to the following folder, "C:\Windows\syswow64\".
2. Open command prompt, type "cd C:\Windows\syswow64\"
3. Type "regsvr32 mynewobject.dll" and press enter.
You should receive a message saying that the component was "registered successfully". This should work when trying to register a 32bit dll in 64bit windows with 32bit application pools.
To regisister 64bit DLL's use the standard "regsvr32 mynew64bitobject.dll".

I am a serial reinstaller. That's a perfectly lawful version of a serial killer where the only thing you kill is your hard drive. It involves reinstalling operating systems over and over again, often in a rotation of different ones. On various computers since 1991 (yes, I am that old), I've run various versions of DOS, Windows 3.1, Win 98, Win XP, Win 7, Win 8.1, the old Caldera Linux, the old free-of-charge Red Hat, Debian GNU/Linux, Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Slackware, Mint, and others I can no longer remember. And it has felt like I've tried out all of those operating systems mostly for the experience of the reinstall and seeing a shiny new desktop (or, in the case of DOS and Slackware, command prompt) on my display.
That was all supposed to change this past March or April, when I decided to sacrifice my meagre savings to a brand new computer from Future Shop. And I already knew I wanted a tower (what people today call a desktop, even though it's really a tower). That decision earned me widespread contempt. The only people who still buy tower computers are avid gamers, and they build their own, because they consider prebuilt towers to be crap. But the only game I was playing was World of Warcraft, so I didn't need some kind of overclocked beast, just hardware that ran well and wasn't seven years old.
So into the local Future Shop I went, and it took me some searching to find the small tower computer section, dwarfed by the gigantic tablet and laptop section. What immediately caught my eye was a mini-tower about one foot tall and 18 inches long, weighing what appeared to be less than 10 pounds. I don't have a lot of desk space, and don't like keeping my hardware on the floor, so that was a definite selling point. The computer was an Acer AXC-605. Opinion is sharply divided on Acers, because half the people say they're excellent and the other half insist they're crap. I thought the price was right at just under $400 in Canadian bucks, so I grabbed it. I noted from the packaging that it came with a lawfully registrable version of Windows 8.1, so I thought my odyssey through various operating systems was over.
Then the sales clerk got to work on me. He obviously thought I was mentally challenged, probably because most computer people think buying a prebuilt tower _is_ mentally challenged. His sales talk made it obvious that he considered me incapable of feeding myself with a spoon and changing my own diaper. Then he finally got to the point: I was supposed to buy an aftermarket service warranty package from the store that would have cost $200, or half again the price of the computer itself. I politely declined. So then he tried to scare me by telling me that the Acer AXC-605 needs repairs an average of every six months, and each service call costs an average of $200 alone. That almost stopped me from buying the computer, but I decided there was no way he could be telling the truth. If computer hardware broke down and required replacement every six months, even idiots would completely stop buying computers and start using an abacus. So I bought the computer, sans warranty, and walked out.
Later, I had a chance to think about what he had said. I've heard stories about repair service offered at places such as Future Shop and Best Buy. It's intended for people who have trouble finding the power switch–and, from the way that sales clerk at Future Shop talked to me, he was assuming that I didn't know how to plug the power cord into the wall outlet. But I had previously taken a computer apart physically and reassembled it, and reinstalled and configured and maintained various operating systems. Back in the days of the Commodore 64, I had even written a baseball game called Cowhide, which had been from the pitcher's perspective, so I knew the basic principles of programming as well, even if I didn't really know any programming or script languages. So I figured that the people who haul their Acers in to Future Shop for "repairs" every six months are just having software or operating system issues and don't know how to do a few basic things that can keep a system running smoothly. One of them is reinstalling the operating system from scratch once in a while.
It turned out that you can't reinstall the version of Win 8.1 that comes with my computer, but you can use a 16-gig flash drive to create a factory reset disk, which can be asked to wipe the hard drive and completely replace the operating system with a brand new version exactly like the one you got when you first bought the computer. In order to use that flash drive, you have to boot off it, and that's a bit tricky to arrange. I'm not going to tell you how because I don't want lawyers from large companies threatening to amputate my financial penis, which they make a habit of doing to anyone who inconveniences them. Suffice to say that I did create the factory reset flash drive and make sure I could boot off it. But I'd also had experience with previous versions of Windows that reinstalling the operating system over top of an existing operating system of the same version can sometimes reuse data already present on the hard drive and lead to the dreaded blue screens of death, so, before using the factory reset disk, I arranged to get the installer for Linux Mint onto another flash drive, so that I could install it first in order to overwrite the data on the hard drive. For general information, Mint takes about four and a half minutes to install on my Acer, compared to about 30 minutes for a factory reset of Win 8, and, with Mint, there is much less post-install configuration to get the system just the way I like it. The problem is that several bits of commercial software simply will not run in Linux at all, and I wanted to keep using them.
Long story short, I am still a serial reinstaller. Every 10 days or so, I back up my data, overwrite my hard drive with Mint 17, then do a factory reset of Win 8.1. Getting everything done takes a grand total of about an hour and a half. It's time well spent to avoid having to drag my computer to the repair shop a mere six months after I bought it. And sometimes it's even fun to take a break from Windows and just run Mint 17 for a couple of days, as I'm doing right now.

Wander the stunning scenery of North Wales over three days of guided walks...
DurationMultiple durations available
FoodNone provided
Difficulty LevelsMultiple options available
1 - 2
Let our leaders show you the best walking in Snowdonia over a weekend of moderate guided walks. We'll take you out on two day walks over the weekend to find great trails, hidden waterfalls and caves, fantastic mountain views, and peaceful lakeside strolls.
Snowdonia is a fantastic place to go walking, so let us do the ground work and get you to the best bits. The walks will be out for the day, but we won't be summiting the high mountains or doing anything technical; this is more about having a social walk and having a great day out.
Please note unlike our regular trips this activity does not include accommodation, we also
Our Mountain Leader will collect you each day and take you walking somewhere different, giving you the chance to see the many different landscapes that make up Snowdonia.
Each set of walks is based from a particular village or town, where we know you'll be able to find accommodation. Check the dates below to see where the weekend is based.
In a nutshell:
- Enjoy three days of easy and sociable guided walks in Snowdonia.
- Discover more about the history of the area, spot wildlife, sample the local cafes and restaurants and see why North Wales is so special.
- Choose where you want to stay; there are options from luxury hotels to campsites!
- Minibus collection from each town in the morning.
- You're welcome to bring your dog on these walks, but unfortunately you won't be able to use our transport.
Snowdonia Day Walks Package Dates:
- Saturday 29th – Monday 31st August (August Bank Holiday)
- Monday 14th – Wednesday 16th September
Day 1-3
Please note: Unlike our standard residential trips were you arrive on the evening of day one. For this trip day one starts at 9am in the chosen location and the first day of walking.
On each of these days we'll collect you from the meeting location at 9:00am. From here we'll drive to the start of the walk and take you out for the day, stopping on the way so you can pick up a packed lunch. Your leader will decide the walk schedule considering the weather, and on the second two days, what the group is up for. Our main aim is to show you this beautiful part of the north-west!
In the evenings you'll be free to explore the local town either in a group or on your own. Your leader will give you recommendations for great evening meal locations!
What We'll be Doing
There are a huge range of walking options for us to choose from in the area. Each morning we'll meet up and your leader will make a decision depending on what the group feels like as well as the weather forecast.
In Betws-y-Coed we could be heading through one of the nearby gorges to visit Swallow Falls or even the Fairy Glen, or taking a trail around the hills near Capel Curig to visit the beautiful Llyn Crafnant. From Beddgelert we might walk to Llyn Dinas and admire sites from Arthurian legend before taking to along beautiful woodland trails in Nantmor, or exploring the Pass of Aberglaslyn and Cwm Llan with its views of Snowdon. Around Llanberis you'll be amazed at the remains of the slate industry, right next to the 13th century Dolbadarn Castle, with walks in the valleys of Snowdon itself and around the iconic Llyn Padarn.
If it's a nice day, we could aim higher, taking in one of the lower local peaks, like Moel Siabod, Yr Aran or Moel Eilio. Whatever we do we know you'll see something new and have a great day out.
About the Area
Snowdonia National Park includes the highest peaks in Wales, but also acres of woodland, sandy beaches and estuaries, and valleys packed with historical sites and excellent trails. The famous peak of Snowdon attracts people from all around the world, but equally as loved are the lowland paths, leading to lakes, up streams and through the famous mountain passes. The rich landscape comes alongside thousands of years of myths and legends, with Stone Age settlements, stories of King Arthur and castles of the Welsh Princes appearing on most walking routes.
Good to know:

What our members have to say...
My first Large Outdoors and (Ulster & the Giant's Causeway Walking Weekend) Irish experience was absolutely fantastic. Everything was organised perfectly and Gareth is a joy to be around. I loved every minute and will definitely book myself onto another trip. #toldallmyfriendstheyhavetocomeVanessaMember Since 2018
Well, for a non-walker it was certainly challenging but my word was it exhilarating! The feeling of achievement after every day, was just fabulous. The group we went with were all strangers on day one, but firm friends by the end of the week. The comradery on some of the tougher walks, helped me to the top…..and wow what views. Anyone thinking of doing it - don't worry….just go for it!ClaireMember Since 2016
"I didn't really know what to expect on my first ever walking holiday and wasn't very prepared if truth be known – lesson to all read the essential kit list especially waterproofs! It was great fun and what a lovely group of supportive and encouraging people, especially Gareth who did a great job looking after us all. I must admit at times I found it a bit challenging but what a great sense of achievement when we reached the top of the mountains (hills) I will definitely do this again.ElizabethMember Since 2016

It is recommended that a minimum of three-hundred words be used on each webpage to help it both be recognised and ranked by Google. These words should also naturally contain instances of your chosen keyword or term appearing. Yet for websites that choose a minimalist or streamlined website design aesthetic, adding three-hundred words into the mix can disturb this visual space and aesthetic flow. Therefore to achieve this, these words can be added across the page in select areas as opposed to one or two large blocks of text. Instead, smaller snippets of text can be incorporated to meet this minimum word count and keyword density target in the following places.
Heading / Title
Give each of your webpages a heading / title (in a large font) and add a sentence explaining this title directly underneath it (in a smaller font). For example, the heading 'About Us' can be followed with a short sentence such as 'Learn about what we do and how we do it, our team that make it all possible and our opening hours so that you can see the magic happen in store for yourself'. Not only does this brief sentence explain the outline of the page and draw readers deeper into the content; but it also adds thirty-three words towards the minimum word count target in a succinct and unobtrusive manner.
Review / Testimonial
A similar snippet of text that can be added to a webpage is that of a client review or testimonial. This is a great way to break up any blocks of text by punctuating it with some words in a different writing style i.e. as written by your clients. This text can also be added in italics to denote its different origin and purpose. Choose a short and sweet testimonial (make sure to include the name of the client, with their permission of course) to both add towards this word count and also to reinforce the message that this webpage aims to get across.
Lastly, the area at the bottom of webpages directly above the footer (and not in the actual footer) is another great place to add a few inconspicuous lines of text. This can be used to wrap-up the content of the webpage i.e. 'Now that you have seen who we are and what we do here at X, simply call us on Y or e-mail us on Z and we will be happy to help with any of your requests – big or small'. This adds another forty words towards your minimum word count goal. It also nicely wraps-up the page and can end with a timely call-to-action.
With all of the above taken into the account, you should only require less than two-hundred words to complete your webpage. These words can be rendered in more streamlined forms of text as to not clutter and disrupt your streamlined website design. At Webheads, our expert custom website designers can design any type of custom or streamlined website design for you that incorporates all of the elements needed to attract customers and retain loyal clients.

Feedback on maternity services at the Whittington Hospital
Whittington Health is planning how best to deliver services in the future. To help with this, they asked us to speak to local residents about a range of issues.
I had a complicated pregnancy and received excellent community antenatal care. The free acupuncture and physiotherapy was really good and useful, and so was the information they gave me. It would be good if they reduced waiting times at the antenatal clinics. During labour I felt like they listened to me, but they need better handover between the day and night shifts.
To gather views on maternity services we worked with Manor Gardens Welfare Trust. They hosted a focus group for new mothers who didn't have English as a first language. We also carried out phone interviews with residents who were actively engaged with Healthwatch. We spoke to 16 people about maternity services in particular, and 90 people overall.
What people told us about maternity services
- Participants reported a range of good and bad experiences. Many found staff helpful, and were very happy with the service. However some found staff rude, or said that appointments felt rushed.
- Whittington Health has plans to redesign and refurbish the maternity wing. Some participants felt that more privacy was needed, and that the rooms were very noisy. Others suggested better facilities such as a café, a bigger waiting area, a designated space for buggies, and a play area for toddlers and young children.
- It was felt that higher staff numbers would lead to better care and more attention for mothers (not just babies). There was demand for more scans during pregnancy, and longer stays after giving birth.
- There needs to be better access to interpreting on wards and within gynaecological services.
We also gathered feedback on urgent and emergency care services, digital technology, and location of services. We shared our findings with Whittington Health.
