A large number of them sacrificed their lives in a war that had nothing to do with them or their motherland.

Sarojini Naidu's poem The Gift of India is concerned with two main themes: a celebration and demand for accounting Mother India's gifts to the West and a tribute to the Indian soldiers who were martyred in the battlefields of the First World War.
a)As mentioned in Naidu's poem, the rich gifts that Mother India gave the world are the raiment, grain and gold. This refers to all the resources from agricultural productions to priceless metals which the foreign colonisers took to their country while they were ruling India.

Q: Ubuntu Trusty ppa package install not working We have had several ppa packages which normally worked (java8, php7, etc...) which appear to be now not working, and by not working I mean the packages are just not present when trying to install them.
Here is example from java8:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
 Reading package lists... Done
 Building dependency tree
 Reading state information... Done
 E: Unable to locate package oracle-java8-installer

If I run sudo apt-cache policy i can see that the ppa is listed:
500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
 release v=14.04,o=LP-PPA-webupd8team-java,a=trusty,n=trusty,l=Oracle Java (JDK) 8 Installer PPA (DISCONTINUED),c=main
 origin ppa.launchpad.net

I know it says discontinued in the ppa, but I would except there to be an error on installing the ppa not just the package missing. Is there updated instructions on how to install java8 or other packages from ppa's (I also have the same issue with php7 from the ondrej ppa). My guess is this has something to do with trusty being EOL recently.

A: If you look at this web site you'll see the reason why you can't get it the normal PPA way, and how to get it another way... and here's a partial quote...

The Oracle JDK License has changed for releases starting April 16, 2019.
The new Oracle Technology Network License Agreement for Oracle Java SE is substantially different from prior Oracle JDK licenses. The new license permits certain uses, such as personal use and development use, at no cost -- but other uses authorized under prior Oracle JDK licenses may no longer be available. Please review the terms carefully before downloading and using this product. An FAQ is available here: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/overview/oracle-jdk-faqs.html
Oracle Java downloads now require logging in to an Oracle account to download Java updates, like the latest Oracle Java 8u211 / Java SE 8u212. Because of this I cannot update the PPA with the latest Java (and the old links were broken by Oracle).
For this reason, THIS PPA IS DISCONTINUED (unless I find some way around this limitation).

Q: Write to output stream and read from input stream PHP I am trying to achieve something like i can write to some stream and read from input stream such as
$fh = fopen('php://output', 'w');
fwrite($fh, 'Hello World');
$input = file_get_contents('php://input'); // outputs ""

I understand that when we write to output stream it basically prints out the stuff and never reach to the point where php://input can have the data. But I could not find any example to achieve this.
Basically I want to test something based on the data received from input steam but not sure how to give data to input stream.
Thanks

A: Not entirely sure what you want to achieve, but if you want to read from php://input, you might need to look at stream_get_contents or other things that work on streams such as fread() and fwrite() etc.

Even if you're not, you may find the following brief history of birds entertaining.
The evolution of birds is thought to have begun in the Jurassic Period, with the earliest birds derived from a clade of theropoda dinosaurs named Paraves. Birds are categorized as a biological class, Aves.
The earliest known isArchaeopteryx lithographica, from the Late Jurassic period, though Archaeopteryx is not commonly considered to have been a true bird.
The raven-sized animal in the photo above lived about 150 million years ago and had feathers identical to that of modern flying birds. But Archaeopteryx also had sharp teeth, a long bony tail and clawed fingers.
At 7 feet long and 3 feet tall, Beipiaosaurus is one of the largest known feathered theropods the group of swift upright dinosaurs from birds are thought to be descended.
Like Archaeopteryx, Microraptor was about the size of a crow and had teeth, claws and feathers on all four limbs that it may have used to glide between trees.
As of the mid-2000s, new fossil and molecular data provide an increasingly clear picture of the evolution of modern bird orders, and their relationships.
A 2008 study published in Science examined DNA sequences from 169 species of birds that represented all of the major extant groups. The findings may necessitate a wholesale restructuring of the avian phylogenetic tree.

We recognize the boys for their accomplishments, give out tons of awards, and the boys perform skits and songs from camp. We also present the annual Geronimo DVD at this Court of Honor. Bring the whole family - all are welcome!
Thanks to everyone who helped with donations for our Troop trailer. We were able to get the new trailer just in time to take the boys up to Camp Geronimo for summer camp this year. All of your support is greatly appreciated!
Our troop trailer was involved in an accident over the summer and the costs to repair it are more than the trailer is worth.
We are raising money to replace our 20+ year old trailer with a newer, lighter trailer to haul our troop's gear to our various campouts throughout the year, to upgrade some of the older gear and to cover the costs to equip and operate the trailer.
To make a donation, visit our GoFundMe site here.
Coming soon! Make sure you get signed up for Merit Badge Roundup online.
The cost per Scout is only $5 if you pre-register. You can take up to three different merit badges (maximum of two Eagle required badges).

Channing Dungey, First African American to Lead Major Network
Channing Dungey (file photo)
Disney/ABC Television Group shook up its leadership last week, naming Channing Dungey as its new president of ABC Entertainment, making her the first black person to ever lead a major broadcast network.
Dungey, who was the executive vice president of ABC drama development, helped develop series such as Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, Quantico, Criminal Minds and Once Upon a Time.
"Channing is a gifted leader and a proven magnet for top creative talent, with an impressive record of developing compelling, breakthrough programming that resonates with viewers," said Ben Sherwood, co-chair of Disney Media Networks and president of Disney/ABC Television Group.
Dungey replaces Paul Lee, who stepped down from the position. Some industry pundits said Lee has clashed with Sherwood in the past.
"Leading ABC has been a fantastic experience," Lee said. "I'm especially proud of the incredible team I built and the strategic, creative vision we established and successfully executed for both the network and studio."
Dungey began her career as a development assistant for Davis Entertainment at 20th Century Fox. She worked as a story editor at Steamroller Productions, working on films such as Under Siege and On Deadly Ground. She later moved to Warner Bros., working on films including The Matrix, Twister, City of Angels, Space Jam, Heat and Bridges of Madison County.
She went on to work as senior vice president at the Material film production company, becoming president in 2001.
She joined ABC in 2004.

KELIS FILES FOR DIVORCE FROM NAS
In why can't we just stay together news, Kelis has filed for divorce from her husband of just over four years, hip-hop star Nas, according to several news outlets.
"I can confirm that she has filed for divorce," Kelis' rep told inquirers. "We request the media to respect her privacy during this very difficult time."
The "Milkshake" singer reportedly filed for divorce on Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court, citing irreconcilable differences as well as verbal abuse and infidelity.
Kelis, who is pregnant with the couple's child, is asking for spousal and child support.
Earlier this month in an interview with MTV News, Nas offered no hints that the couple's marriage was in trouble.
"She's great man. She's doing good," he said of his pregnant wife. In fact, he said the two were working on coming up with names for their first child together. "Yeah, [we are deciding between] a few baby names," Nas told MTV. "It's kind of hard.
"I've been thinking about kinda putting something online: 'Choose his name,'" he continued with a smile. "You get a couple stacks for that. We take care of you for that. You win something real. But we're thinking now."
The couple tied the knot in Atlanta in January 2005.
Let just hope that these are just pregnancy hormones that are making this happen and that the two can work it out. I would really hate to see another black child grow up with parents who don't love each other.

Programme Support » 7. Human Resources » 8. Induction and orientation
On arrival/commencement, ensure all staff complete the Entry interview form, complete any required administration forms (including a RED form) and are issued with identification cards, per diems, equipment, etc.
Use the orientation checklist to ensure all new staff receive orientation, including:
CARE's values, structures and systems
CARE's programme and emergency response
the Code of Conduct, and material for gender and diversity, prevention of sexual exploitation
safety and security briefing
orientation to the staff member's role and job requirements.
Upon commencement or arrival to the CO, any new staff member must complete an entry interview with the CO Human Resources Manager. See Annex 21.32 Entry interview form. Any additional administration forms including a RED form should also be completed. Where applicable, staff should be issued with identification cards, per diems and equipment as soon as possible before deployment to the field.
8.1 Staff identification cards
All emergency personnel must be issued with an identify card for personal identification. This is required for security reasons and to deter unauthorised persons from entering the CARE CO or other work premises. Please refer to Annex 21.13 ID card-template.
The CO must ensure a proper and thorough orientation for new staff arrivals to enable them to operate effectively in a challenging environment. This effort is usually rewarded with increased staff effectiveness and positive morale.
Internal staff who are assigned to the emergency may be familiar with CARE but will still require an induction to their new position and an understanding of the change in pace, the different structures and procedures that apply in an emergency response. A new staff member appointed to CARE will need to be equipped with knowledge of CARE (management structures, systems, programme activities, management style, values and culture), and essentials on safety and security. This information will enable all employees to represent CARE appropriately to all key stakeholders, to donors and the communities we work with, and to work safely in a challenging environment.
The CO orientation process for emergency staff has been modified to suit the constraints of an emergency response. The orientation is based on the individual requirements of the post, and should be completed in the first week of employment. It is delivered by the CO Human Resources Manager and the staff member's line manager. Although the employee may be given documents and policies to read, the induction process should be completed in person.
For national and international staff, refer to Annex 21.33 Country Office orientation checklist, and Annex 21.34 Orientation documents kit. These outline the recommended format and lists essential documents that should be forwarded to the staff member. Also see Annex 21.35 CARE Sri Lanka orientation presentation, for an example of an orientation package developed by a CO during a large-scale emergency.

Nintendo PlayStation sells at auction for 'only' £276,900
March 06, 2020 Gaming, News, PC Gaming
The Nintendo PlayStation is still not exactly pocket change (pic: Heritage Auctions)
Despite talk of it selling for millions of dollars the rarest console ever made has gone for less than many expected.
The world's rarest, and most expensive, video game console now has a new owner, but they paid less than expected for it when the auction for the Nintendo Play Station ended this week.
Especially once Oculus VR creator Palmer Luckey entered the bidding, there was speculation that the console could sell for millions, but in the end it went for just $300,000 (£230,700) or rather $360,000 (£276,900) once all the auction house's fees are added on.
The console had been owned for years by American Terry Diebold, who unknowingly bought it amongst a job lot of dinner plates and cutlery from defunct banking company Advanta… for only $75 (£57).
The connection with Sony and Nintendo is that ex-Sony exec Olaf Olaffson used to work at Advanta, and he seems to have taken the console with him to the new job, then presumably forgotten about it or not realised its importance.
The console is one of around 200 prototypes created in the mid-90s, when Sony was working with Nintendo to make a CD-ROM drive for the SNES.
Nintendo backed out of the deal at the last moment, once they realised how much intellectual copyright ownership they were signing over to Sony, and so the console never went any further than the prototypes.
Of course the general concept, and the name, was then used by Sony alone to create their first ever commercial video game console.
It's more than possible that other prototypes have survived but this is the only one known to exist and be in private hands.
More: Gaming
Whether Palmer Luckey won the auction is unknown, but he hasn't mentioned anything about it again on Twitter and he doesn't seem the type that would've kept quite about it if he had won.
When the console was in Diebold's hands he used to tour it around fan conventions to show it off and prove it still worked and was able to play various SNES games, but it remains to be seen what the new owner will do with it.
There certainly doesn't seem to be any sign a museum has bought it, which means the legend of the Nintendo Play Station will once again fade into history…

NABJ/NAHJ Virtual Convention
By Victoria Garcia Unzueta September 30, 2020 Conferences, HBW, Uncategorized
[By: Victoria Garcia Unzueta]
Earlier this August, HBW gave me the opportunity to attend the National Association of Black Journalists/National Association of Hispanic Journalists (NABJ/NAHJ) Joint Convention in Washington, DC. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, my plans were shifted around and I ended up becoming part of history by attending the first-ever virtual NABJ/NAHJ Joint Convention.
NABJ/NAHJ 2020 Convention Lobby

Partnered for the first time, NAHJ and NABJ came together to host a week full of information, networking, and community. Though Covid-19 has affected our daily lives in many ways, it didn't stop both organizations from hosting an event which helped bring together countless journalists of color. Not only that, but they also crafted panels and presentations designed to help journalists through these unprecedented times. With sessions exploring topics from how to cover Covid-19 within our communities to mental health and self-care, this convention helped build a guiding tool for journalists to use as we navigate our new reality. There were also panels addressing the social unrest our country has faced and how we as journalists can cover them while staying true to our identities and the people around us, which was extremely valuable and helped address some of the concerns that come from being both a person of color and a journalist.
NAHJ panel
As a relatively new Hispanic journalist, being part of NAHJ has helped me immensely. Being able to attend so many panels that featured Hispanic women allowed me to see a level of representation I'd never seen before and helped reaffirm my belief that I belong in this industry. Seeing some of the journalists I've admired for years, such as Lester Holt and Jose Diaz-Balart, was the icing on the cake. I was able to see people who looked like me doing the work I want to do and it gave me a sense of hope and reassurance for the future.
NAHJ morning.
Apart from all the great learning and work building I did, I also had a lot of fun attending the convention. The first night I attended the Convention Kick-Off presentation sponsored by Disney, which featured a live DJ, special Disney presentations, and panels with the creators of Soul. I then spent the week live tweeting the event, which proved to be a great way to network in such unusual times. With a simple Tweet about my traditional Mexican breakfast one morning, I made friends with another NAHJ member and bonded with many others who shared a similar connection. Though it felt silly, putting myself out there and staying true to my identity helped me find a community and make connections that I would not have otherwise made. Concluding the week was bittersweet, as I was grateful for the experience but sad to see it end. To wrap up the convention NAHJ hosted the "Gran Baile", a virtual reimagination of the big dance party to close off the convention. A live DJ provided music and NAHJ provided a platform which gave us a chance to end the convention as a community, enjoying good music and even better company.
Victoria Garcia Unzueta at NAHJ/NABJ 2020
In the end, being able to attend this convention helped me grow as not only a journalist but as a person as well. I built connections, made memories, and prepared myself for a future in a growing industry. Though there's still work left to do I am thankful to be part of something bigger than myself and I'm grateful to help add #MoreLatinosInNews.

Robert Huth incoming? - AVFC - Aston Villa Fansite, Blog, & Forum..
Home General Villa Robert Huth incoming?
It is no secret that after letting Tommy Elphick go out on loan, we have been left short in the centre back department. It leaves James Chester as the only recognised Centre half in the first team. Reports are now suggesting that Robert Huth could be that man to help fill the void.
It appeared that we had also missed out on John Terry but he publicly turned down a move to Spartak Moscow yesterday. I won't get too bogged down with that rumour though as I believe we have read it all.
Instead, I will turn my attention to another defender being linked with a move to Villa, Robert Huth.
The former Leicester and Stoke defender is probably one of the better free agents out there. And if you are to believe reports we are looking to get his services for the rest of this season, at least.
The big German is available on a free after being released by Leicester in the summer.
The 34 year old had a decent spell during his three years at City. He played an integral part in their title success three years ago. Huth is exactly what I picture when I think of your typical centre back. A no-nonsense player who should at least add some solidity to our back line.
He isn't afraid of a strong tackle or throwing his head in front of anything that moves and that's the kind of player we need to slide into the team. For a big man, he's also not so bad with his feet – so hopefully the days of dodgy backpasses to Orjan Nyland are over.
Although it is not ideal I believe Huth is one of the best that are currently available. He is an out and out centre-back who has had success. His signing would also surely signal the end of Mile Jedinak playing alongside Chester.
What do you think of the potential signing of Huth? Has he still got it or will he just slow is down as we challenge for promotion? Have your say in the comments section.
Previous articleA Grealish or Bruce Weakness?
Next articleDoes Bruce deserve more time?
If Robert Huth is indeed under consideration, why then haven't we wrapped up a deal during the international break? Surely the past couple of weeks provided the opportune time to get him on board?
Defensive ticking time bomb yes it is and as we haven't signed anyone yet let's hope it doesn't go off this week end. We have the best attack in the league, so let's hope they can score more goals than we concede, now I read that Bruce is considering letting De Laet out the on loan, which planet is the guy on. By the time Terry has made his mind up most of the decent free agents will have been signed up.
Lets get Huth or Collins on board. I think Terry has had long enough now and seems he will choose the highest bidder. Time to move on I reckon.
Huth is better than nothing…and at the moment Villa have nothing…!!
Bruce's time is over. The time has come for him to go..!!
Yes, Huth could be the answer but why having we got him or another in within the international break.

Q: Symfony 2.4/FOSUserBundle - is there a way to hook into the login process programatically? I have a working project that uses the FOSUserBundle to handle all things user related, including logging into the system.  Now, I'm building an API, and would like users to be able to log into the system by sending their credentials via JSON over HTTPS.  I'd also like to be able to use the _remember_me cookie.
So, I need to be able to send either those JSON-decoded credentials or the _remember_me cookie to the FOSUserBundle login mechanism, but I'm not quite sure how to do it.  Any suggestions or nudges in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

A: You need to create a custom authentication provider and a security factory. This is quite an advanced task, but there's a tutorial here that can help you. http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/security/custom_authentication_provider.html
When you create your factory class (implementing the SecurityFactoryInterface) make sure you assign getPosition() to http. The several authentication factories will be called in a strict order depending on their position, so bear in mind that the remember_me position - that takes care of the remember me functionality (provided it is enabled in your security.yml file) - will kick in earlier than the http authentication you are about to implement.
Besides the tutorial above, you can take a look at and study the following built-in authentication factory that can provide useful information:vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Bundle/SecurityBundle/DependencyInjection/Security/Factory/HttpDigestFactory.php

Iconic motorcycle designer Massimo Tamburini's final creation will soon go into production. Production of the track-only Tamburini T12 Massimo has commenced and only 12 units will be made. Each motorcycle will command a startling price tag of USD 1 million (Rs 6.6 crore), making it one of the most expensive motorcycles to ever go on sale. The final price is a 'bit-off' from the estimated USD 3,60,000 (Rs 2.39 crore) pricing that was reported in 2016.
The styling of the bike as expected is sporty and sharp, with aerodynamics playing a vital role in its form. There's slight resemblance between the MV Agusta F4 and the Tamburini T12, especially the cut in the fairing to expose the bike's engine case and base.
Powering the motorcycle is a (claimed) 230hp in-line-four motor sourced from the BMW S1000RR SBK, handpicked by Tamburini. According to him, the BMW engine was the best four-cylinder motor on sale at that time, especially given its performance and reliability in SBK racing. The bike tips the scale at just 154.5kg (dry weight). To keep weight under check, the headstock and the gorgeous single-sided swing-arm are made from magnesium and all the body panels on the bike are crafted from carbon fibre. Other elements contributing to its reduced weight include a custom-built titanium exhaust system from Arrow and forged magnesium wheels from Marchesini.
The bike employs a patented bespoke trellis chassis as the structural rigidity of the frame. It can be adjusted without altering any components. Details about the patented system haven't been revealed but the brand claims that steering axis rake, trail and triple-clamps offset can be adjusted. Talking about cycle parts, it seems that if a racing team's parts bin was raided to create this superbike. Its suspension hardware consists of MotoGP-spec Ohlins units on both ends and anchorage is provided by MotoGP-spec (for the period) Brembo's top-of-the-line radial-mount calipers, rotors and master cylinders with quick-release lines by Staubli. It also gets Motec engine management and the instrument cluster looks like a straight lift from a MotoGP machine. Being a track-only bike, the Tamburini T12 features Pirelli slick tyres for setting some blistering fast lap times.

The History of An Era is part of a more expansive project that is John Hemmer Archive. The seed of the archive is the story of singer/performer, John Hemmer, his community and collection of memorabilia. He and his cohort entertained during the midcentury nightclub era in New York City and beyond. The project centers around a documentary, John Hemmer & the Showgirls and additional documentation of performer experiences. These recollections are captured in the film, oral history videos, the digitizing and cataloging of personal materials and written articles. These histories are also expressed through live panel discussions taking place at libraries, museums and festivals. The John Hemmer Archive seeks to become part of a formal institutional collection. Its mission is to make available to future generations, the opportunity to learn and celebrate mid-20th century live entertainment and the performers who delighted thousands of patrons before popular culture changed the nightlife society landscape forever.

When a property release is requested, all personal property must be released. The inmate can choose anyone to release the property to, including their bondsman, attorney or public defender, probation officer, and even their caseworker.
A property release is called a Tank Order and must be issued and signed by the inmate. Before picking up property the person who has been given the property rights must go to the jail in Durango where the incarceration took place. They must pick up the Tank Order and then go to the Fourth Avenue Jail to pick up the personal property because it is stored there.
The property will then be released by the jail to the person designated, but they must first show proper ID. Accepted forms of ID are a Department of Motor Vehicles identification card or current/valid driver's license.

When a parent/guardian is arrested, a natural parent or relative will attempt to be located by the arresting officer so that they can take the child/children.
If a relative cannot be found, the child/children will be taken in by Child Protective Services (CPS) until a family member can be located. Child Protective Service Hotline is available 24 hours a day at 1-888-767-2445.
Once a family member contacts CPS, the representative will take their information over the phone and will have a CPS worker contact the family member as soon as possible. A meeting with CPS will be arranged at that time.

Checks must be in U.S. currency, payable to the inmate, and include the inmate's name and booking number. Privately run jails or prisons may also issue checks for the inmate and will be accepted. The full amount of the check has to be deposited in the inmate's money account. Do not send cash in the mail.
U.S. Currency, Cashiers Checks, or U.S. Postal or Western Union money orders may be accepted at any Sheriff's Office jail for deposit into an inmate's money account. It can be deposited at the local kiosks in the visitation lobbies or to the visitation officer during visiting hours as well. Checks and money orders must include the inmates name and booking number. Proper identification is required. Wet, soiled, or altered forms of money will be rejected.

The juxtaposition of vinegar beetroot and silky-smooth quark really makes this sweet-and-salty marriage a forever love that simply can't be beet!
Preheat oven to 400°. Divide beets between 2 large sheets of foil. Drizzle ½ Tbsp. olive oil over beets on each sheet; season with vinegar, kosher salt, and pepper and wrap up foil around beets. Roast on a rimmed baking sheet until tender, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool slightly and transfer the residual beet/oil/vinegar liquid into a large bowl. Then, using a paper towel, rub skins from beets (they should slip off easily). Crush beets with the bottom of a small bowl (it's alright if they fall apart).
Meanwhile, whisk quark and lemon juice together and place in refrigerator.
Heat 3 Tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions, season with kosher salt and pepper, and cook until nicely charred, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to the large bowl (which has the residual beet/oil/vinegar liquid from the previous step), add ¼ cup mint and 2 Tbsp. dill, and toss to coat. Generously smear quark on each plate, neatly place the beets & onions and drizzle the juices from foil – this is the lovely red combination of vinegar and beets. Add the dill, salt, and pepper. Serve at room temperature.


Sunglasses are definitively much needed accessories. I can't imagine not wearing any, can you?
Sunglasses or shades are a form of protective eyewear designed primarily to prevent bright sunlight and high-energy visible light from damaging or discomforting our eyes. They can sometimes also function as a visual aid, mine are bifocal sunglasses.
Guess when the first pair of glasses were worn? Nope, nope and nope – the first sun blockers were made during prehistoric ages by Inuit peoples who wore flattened walrus ivory glasses, looking through narrow slits to block harmful reflected rays of the Sun.
Interesting, isn't it? The Roman emperor Nero liked to watch gladiator fights with emeralds, not a $25 pair of shades!
Men Sunglasses made from flat pieces of smoky quartz, which offered no correction but did protect the eyes from glare and reflection, were used in China in the 12th century or possibly earlier. Men only? It seems that women sunglasses were not fashion in those days!
Much later around 1752 the British James Ayscough started to thinker with tinted glass not to protect against the sun but to cure or help with ailment. The yellow / amber / brown tint was prescribed to cure syphilis! What is the color of your Ray Ban pair of glasses Sorry to hear that, just kidding you.
Starting In 1913, things go very fast when it comes to sunglasses. Crookes lenses were developed and made from glass containing cerium an UV light blocker.
In the 1920s movie stars wore pair of glasses for fashion, not function. Men sunglasses and Women sunglasses were small, round handmade of tortoiseshell or metal. Color tint ranged from dark grey to amber. Deep green shades came in the 1930s.
The public caught on to the convenience of shades, but the cost was extremely high, up to $25 a pair! That's about $316 in 2019 – how much did you pay for your Tom Ford Sunglasses?
Fortunately, the 1930s, inexpensive mass-produced celluloid pair of glasses made were produced by Sam Foster in 1929. Atlantic City beaches, NJ was where Sam began selling shades under the name Foster Grant. In 1938 it is estimated that 20 million sunglasses were sold in the US but only about 25% of American wore them to protect from the sun – Fashion, Fashion.
Today, Xiamen, China, is the world's largest producer of sunglasses, exporting 120 million pairs each year! Don't dream, your Oakley Sunglasses are made in Xiamen.
Our eyes need protection against excessive exposure to light, including visible and invisible components like UV (ultraviolet).
UV can cause short-term and long-term ocular problems such as photokeratitis, snow blindness, cataracts, pterygium, and various forms of eye cancer. Medical experts advise us on the importance of wearing sunglasses to protect the eyes from UV. Experts advise the use of sunglasses that reflect or filter out 99% or more of UVA and UVB light, with wavelengths up to 400 nm.
A pair of Sunglass that meets this requirement is often labeled as UV400 – the Royal Hot sunglasses My Small Store sells are Polarized and UV400 grade, not the common cheaper 380nm. Try our polarized aviator sunglasses with UV400 with cheaper models - huge difference.
Warning: Even UV400 rated sunglasses are not meant to look directly to the sun.
Where to get your next sunglasses?
There are many outlets such as Sunglass Hut, who sells branded shades with prices ranging from $50 on sale to $600+ for beautiful Dior Sunglasses.
Calvin Klein, an American Fashion Designer.
My Small Store does not sell any brand like Ray Ban Sunglasses, Prada, Maui Jim, Michael Kors, Miu Miu, Tori Burch, Kate Spade New York, Oakley, Gucci and others, first we think these are way overpriced and have so many counterfeit copies that it no longer means anything.
We prefer to focus on affordable brands that provide a high level of UV protection while being extremely fashionable – just look at Men Sunglasses by Royal Hot who is starting to design shades for women as well.
We honestly think that Designers come up with their own names – seriously!
Classic aviator sunglasses also call pilot have a dark metal frame and reflective or smoke lenses.
Brow Bar shades have hit the mainstream. The addition of a second brow bar that rides along your eyebrows adds a fun addition to any look.
Want more? Nah, the most important is that you love the style you pick that fits your face and your clothing style. What is important is to make sure your eyes are protected so, let look at sunglasses protection again.
Remember we should wear sunglasses for protection not just fashion.
Both anti-reflective coating and polarized sunglasses cut reflection glare. Polarized lenses are very effective water and snow reflection but also while driving. Anti-reflecting coatings reduce glare caused by light reflecting off the back surface of your sunglass lenses.
UVB rays are dangerous, making sunglasses and sunscreen a must; they don't go through glass.
UVC rays do not reach the Earth because our atmosphere blocks them (pfewwww).
The best protection are UV400 sunglasses, they protect from the most dangerous UVB wavelength and this is true for any color your choose black, blue, red and even white transparent.
Remember sun damage in your eyes is irreversible meaning that even if the sun doesn't bother you, wear sunglasses – we sell some, low price and free shipping (just saying).
Sunglasses for kids – oops, we do not sell those – why?
Because we recommend talking to a pediatrician first because your children eyes are very sensitive, you need you make sure you get the best protection adapted to your child – are we right? I know we are.
Well a long article to discuss about men sunglasses as well as women shades. Lots of information but if you have any question, feel free to contact us. Don't forget that our shop is free shipping, 30 days returns, full specs published so it makes your shopping easy.


Orthodontics has come a long way since the days of enduring months of uncomfortable fixed metal braces. Scientific advances now mean that many braces are almost invisible and much more comfortable.
Short term orthodontics offers you the choice of wearing a clear and sometimes removable appliance while straightening and aligning your teeth.
This is often a favourable option for adults who have professional careers and don't feel comfortable wearing unsightly 'train track' braces for months on end. The technology behind invisible orthodontics is highly advanced and may give patients a shorter treatment time, depending on their individual case.
Whitecart Dental Care's Carole McClure can now provide short term orthodontics for children who do not qualify for NHS braces. Please contact us for more information.
We offer Inman Aligner braces that can transform smiles in a matter of weeks, Six Month Smiles, a fixed appliance which, as the name suggests, straightens teeth in around six to nine months and Clear Smile Aligners that are similar to Invisalign in that they are virtually invisible clear, removeable aligners with no metal parts to irritate your mouth.
I am a 58 year old grandma but I have always been self-conscious about my smile…….not anymore! After six months of wearing an almost invisible brace I now have what I am calling, my Hollywood smile. The care and attention I received from everyone at the surgery was first class. I would encourage anyone to go for it!

Restraint and Prevention in the Ridgefield School District
CPI April 14, 2014
Image Credit: Digital Vision.
Special education staff and teachers and support staff who work in all educational environments deal with a variety of challenging and violent student behaviors every day. These behaviors can disrupt classroom time, hinder learning, and thwart the efforts of professionals who entered the education field in order to make a difference.
Two Ridgefield Press articles, "De-Escalation First: Crisis Teams Learn How to Keep Control" and "Restraint: A Last Resort but Still Used in Schools," discuss these complex issues, as well as the incidence of restraint and seclusion in Ridgefield (CT) district schools. Schools in Connecticut have been required to report on the use of restraint and seclusion since the 2011–2012 school year.
In response to the latter article, CPI president Judith Schubert writes, "I urge readers to learn from this report and support initiatives which aim to assure that schools are a place where students feel safe and supported and teachers remain motivated teaching in safe school environments."
The article focuses on how staff in the Ridgefield district deal with behavioral emergencies such as a student hitting, kicking, or causing self-injury. It quotes Ridgefield Special Education Director Karen Berasi, who says, "Our goal is always to solve the problem so restraint doesn't have to be used at all."
To achieve this, the district has implemented a variety of staff development initiatives, including training in Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® strategies for prevention and intervention. Staff such as Veterans Park school psychologist Jen Haan teach their coworkers to look out for behavioral warning signs, focus on verbal de-escalation, and re-establish communication with students after incidents. Staff are also taught how to block and move away from strikes and grabs, and how to use body positioning—only in emergencies—to limit a student's ability to injure self or others.
"School safety requires a commitment at all levels to prioritize staff development efforts which address not only 'how' to intervene in dangerous situations, but what might help prevent them," writes Schubert. Read her full commentary.

Poster: 6 Daily Mantras for a Positive Classroom


ADAMS, Mass. -- Entrepreneur Ralph Brill unveil details of his proposal for a bicycle-and-virtual reality reinvention of Adams' business district -- and a "Hobbit-inspired" Greylock Glen -- in a public discussion atop Mount Greylock.
Brill's April 6 talk was entitled: "What do Hobbits, Ilvermorny and Bicycle Shops Have in Common in the New Adams." Brill's proposal is pending before town boards and selectmen in Adams and he revealed some details in December. Brill's key argument is that the town needs to embrace the use of the former Adams Memorial Middle School as a hostel and new-media education center in conjunction with the Glen and with bicycle-oriented eco-tourism. He has even suggested the town be renamed, "New Adams" as a way of emphasizing its new focus and image.

The Ocean friend

Even when she was very small, she knew….
Where most small children might be frightened by their mother sliding under the waves in a black rubber suit and steely tank, she was not… It made her happy… It meant time… time on the shore…. he was always there with her, and with him she was always safe, never lonely… he'd entertain her even at this young age, filling tidepools with small friends, singing lullaby if she was sleepy, blowing seafoam bubbles to cover her little monkey toes with delight… If anything she was sad when her mother surfaced, and took her… she would drag her feet in the sand, suddenly so heavy… until hefted up into the baby backpack and carried away…
only once was she the slightest bit afraid… but that wasn't her fault, or his… her cousins took her clam digging on the mudflats… and waited too long on an incoming tide… The older ones had said "wait here until we come get you" (and gave the smaller ones the umbrella) she was so small and her boots got stuck. She was not afraid until the only slightly older kids started crying and saying things like they were going to drown, and then, as all little ones do when others are upset, began to worry… There they were, the younger cousins huddled under a big umbrella under grey rainy skies and the seafoam getting closer and closer to the tops of her boots. Worried that is until she realized that she could take her feet out of those rubber boots and was no longer stuck… but the older kids wouldn't move… so this was still rather bothersome, too much responsibility for someone so small to tell them to take their feet out of their boots… Finally, just as the water was filling her boots, her very big cousins (they were maybe 10 and 12? but very very big to her 3 or 4) swooped in like a team of superheros and carried the tiny ones off the mud flats… They asked why the little ones hadn't moved… silly question thought the tiny one, who's bare feet were now dangling, dripping with seafoam…
then it became a game… as she grew…. he would nip at her skirt hem, daring game with varying waves sets whilst she was playing at the interface of land and sea, she would play coy and try to stay dry… this worked fine until her mother who didn't understand the game would take her out too far in the waves …. her mother never understood why she was so upset to have the gold ribbon on her home-made gypsy skirt soaking wet… it had nothing to do with vanity… it meant she'd lost!
She grew up on his shores, embraced in his salty arms… he was her companion, mentor, entertainer… His cool salty breath created the most delightful green playground a child could ever dream of… And as she grew, he became the one she would love above all else…
And they were happy… until she was taken far far away to a very very very dry place… a place where she learned the meaning of her favorite word… A place where she'd leave her window open every night that it wasn't below freezing so she might get the tinyiest of whiffs of marine air… he would send her these small reminders as frequently as he could, but they were more often than not blocked by multiple mountain ranges… and it was hard, sometimes they were frozen long before they ever made it to her, falling as crystals with no smell… only clean smell, covering the lingering overlay of dust… the clay dust that covered everything for 2/3rds of the year, permeating the skin… every emotion became clay colored, a depressing dusty existence… waiting for one thing… And that thing, that amazing thing shared its path with danger… with his gifts would come the thunder storms, the lightning that would start the dry hills aflame, and that smoke smell would just make it all worse… dust, clay, smoke, haze…. And so the summer would creep towards fall, her hands cracked like the lake beds and bleeding from the unrelenting dry air… (she was a water creature after all!) the water table dropping so low that the wells dried up and even fish in the river were left gasping… if someone had designed a perfect purgatory, this would be it she thought on more than one occasion. and she would despair… it was like the drought of summer was evaporating her will to fight… it wasn't the heat, the heat was fine, it was simply the lack of water… and like those poor fish in the ever shallower river, she was suffocating…
until one night, a very special night each fall… when his gift, packaged up in silver mist and lighting edges finally made it past the mountains and the thirsty plains that sucked up so many before… and in her sleep, she would dream… dream of the temperate rain forest with its pine and duff and salt and sphagnum and epiphytic mosses, lichens and ferns smells… the smell of saltwater on basalt…. the smell of rain on driftwood… and the tidepools from her childhood…
and then it was there..
Petrichor!!!
that smell, the smell of the first rain drops very very far away falling on the sun beaten barren rocky plateaus… the night air carrying the hint of humidity and fragrance across the miles, his gift would finally make its way to her window sill, and he would slip inside, a sly incubus, a reminder of what lay to the west… crashing on the igneous rocks… reaching out to touch her…. riding on high cirrus clouds over the mountain range… coalescing into thunderheads…. reminding her what it meant to be alive… she would smile in her sleep, and awake just as the huge drops began their rhythmic pounding on the orange metal roof…. and she would run outside, barefoot, nightgown fluttering in the wind, without fear of lightning, and dance and run… soaking up his gift… replenishing her soul…. and then she would stand there, head back, arms outstretched, soaked to the core body and soul by the warm rain, her lovers touch from so far away… it was their word, petrichor, the smell of wet rocks, the smell of the fluid that runs through the veins of the earth… with the slightest hint of salt and …..pineapples
