Rugby is the only sport in the world where you have to advance the ball to the other end of the field in order to score, but you're NOT allowed to pass the ball forward. Therefore, the only way to get the ball there is to go forward yourself: run forward, attack the opposition, create space, and gain territory while working with your supporting players to maintain possession of the ball. When coaching or watching young kids play rugby for the first time, "go forward" is something you'll hear a lot!
In Rugby4Good terminology, Go Forward should also be relayed off the field. It is a great meta-theme for any Rugby4Good program or organization. Go Forward as we define it is to "Strive to improve, to experience growth, and to never give up". This is a powerful message for a young person who may be facing adverse conditions on a regular basis. You (they) can't control everything, but you can strive to be a better person, to make the most of your opportunities, to listen, to learn, and to develop. Combine this inquisitive desire for self improvement with a little grit and you have someone that is Going Forward!
Equally, Go Forward is a running theme in our social enterprise that can be applied to any business. We are continuously developing our curriculum, training programs, and overall program framework to intentionally maximize our youth development objectives. We work closely with our program partners to collaborate around achieving positive educational outcomes for our participants and on-going development opportunities for our respective staff. We regularly measure & evaluate our outcomes within a framework designed to achieve long-term social impact. In doing so, we face numerous challenges along the way around funding & budget cuts, space limitations, and policy changes, but we also identify and create opportunities determining ways to keep going forward.
Set an aspirational goal that is achievable in an ideal world.
Identify your base-line. (Where are you now in relation to your goal)?
Identify the steps you need to take to achieve the goal and set a time-line.
What resources do you need to achieve each task?
Who and what can help you secure those resources for each task?
Start going forward with task #1.
If you believe in your original goal, make it happen & don't give up!

Q: Nginx upstream unix socket keepalive? Do I need to add any additional configuration to enable keepalive to my PHP-FPM backend?
    upstream php_backend {
            zone upstreams 64K;
            server unix:/var/run/php-fpm.sock max_fails=1 fail_timeout=2s;
            keepalive 10;
    }

        # Pass off php requests to PHP-FPM
    location ~* \.php {
            try_files       $uri =404;
            access_log      /var/log/php-fpm/example_access.log;
            include         /usr/local/etc/nginx/php-fpm.conf;
            fastcgi_pass    php_backend;
    }

In the following Nginx guides, when you don't use unix sockets you must add :
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header   "Connection" "";

Source :
https://www.nginx.com/blog/avoiding-top-10-nginx-configuration-mistakes/#no-keepalives
https://www.nginx.com/blog/avoiding-top-10-nginx-configuration-mistakes/#upstream-groups
Is there any additional config I need to add when using a unix socket?

A: You will need to change keepalive_timeout value in nginx.conf.
In linux (Debian) it is located in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:

And restart your server with: sudo service nginx restart.
You may also restart fpm after any change in config with sudo service  php7.4-fpm restart. (It is php7.4-fpm in may case)
To see all available services use systemctl list-units --type=service --all

Government will bring back Online Safety Bill in autumn, says minister
July 14, 2022 3 Mins Read United Kingdom
The Government will press ahead with the Online Safety Bill, despite delaying the proposed legislation's progress through Parliament until a new prime minister is in place in the autumn.
Cabinet Office minister Kit Malthouse said the Government had made a manifesto commitment to act on the issue.
But he acknowledged the Bill could face amendment amid concerns among some Tory MPs at the impact on free speech, while some campaigners want more to be done to protect children from the threat of online sexual abuse.
I haven't heard anybody yet in the leadership or elsewhere say they want to scrap the Bill entirely although obviously, as there always is with legislation, (there will be) debates about nuance and complexity
Cabinet Office minister Kit Malthouse
"That manifesto commitment needs to be fulfilled. Whoever is our new glorious leader, they will have to bear that in mind as they contemplate the legislation in the autumn," Mr Malthouse told BBC Radio 4's The World At One.
"I don't think there is a single person in either the Commons or the Lords who wants to do anything other than strengthen the protection for children online.
"As normal with legislation, it will be adjusted by amendments with the Government in the driving seat so we can satisfy that manifesto commitment.
"I haven't heard anybody yet in the leadership or elsewhere say they want to scrap the Bill entirely although obviously, as there always is with legislation, (there will be) debates about nuance and complexity."
It comes after Downing Street confirmed the Bill would be delayed because of limited parliamentary time before the summer recess.
The delay had sparked a row among MPs and campaigners over what should happen with the Bill.
Andy Burrows, head of child safety online policy at the NSPCC, said the delay would mean "families continue to pay the price for the failure and inaction of tech firms".
In contrast, former MP Ruth Smeeth, now chief executive of the free speech campaign group Index On Censorship, said the delay was "great news" and meant the "fundamentally broken Bill" could be given a "rethink" by a new prime minister.
That view has been supported by Tory leadership candidate Kemi Badenoch, who said if elected leader she would "ensure the Bill doesn't overreach" and that the Government "shouldn't be legislating for hurt feelings".
But this view has received pushback from within the Conservative Party.
Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries, who is spearheading the Bill and backing Foreign Secretary Liz Truss to be the next leader of the Tories, replied to Ms Badenoch: "Which part of the Bill legislates for hurt feelings, Kemi?"
Tech minister Damian Collins – who is backing Penny Mordaunt as the next Tory leader – said Ms Badenoch was "completely wrong" on the issue.
"Tell me where in this Bill there is any provision that requires the removal of legal speech. Instead, for the first time, we can set safety standards online based on our laws. Why would you want to stop that?" he asked.


My New Year's Resolution was to learn to play an instrument and I've always loved the violin. Since it's on the brain, why not share one of the key inspirations for my obsession of this instrument.
Lindsey Stirling is a funky,contemporary artist that plays some of the most unique and mesmerizing tunes on a violin that I've ever heard. Lindsey has such a specific sound that she can be recognized almost immediately by any of her fans.
Shatter Me is such a universal album because it can be played at work, during a workout, or while reading which is amazing. Plus she's super adorable and quirky which makes her stand out as an artist, but also brings a cool vibe to an instrument normally associated with classical sounds. Not that there is anything wrong with classical (huge love for classical) but it can limit the draw to some listeners who enjoy other genres.
She too does some rad covers and collaborations with other artists. Here's a taste of her talents with John Legend in All Of Me.
Hopefully this opens you up to a new genre or we can love her together!
Lindsey Stirling's music is the best. She came to our town to play and it was so awesome.


As my artistic journey deepens, I continue to stumble across blogs and articles about women, careers and motherhood. I should be clear: art is not my lively-hood, it is a passion and hobby I've returned to again and again over the years. In a way, because my other roles (Mother, ECE-assistant, yoga instructor, etc) are more urgent, my role as an artist often falls way behind the other ones. I'm slowly working on changing this, in hopes that my hobby can one day be apart of my business (yoga, wellness, art).


The race for the December Crown Club honors was as close as it's ever been. For the first time, two franchisees tied for the highest dollar amount of new business signed this month. Congratulations to both of our December Crown Club Winners, Ramone Spears from Jani-King of Charlotte and Martha Puechner from Jani-King of Phoenix. Martha is a long-time Jani-King franchisee with several awards under her belt and Ramone is a first-time Crown Club winner and relatively new franchise owner in the Jani-King system, purchasing his unit franchise in July 2015.
Puechner, one of Jani-King Southwest's highest grossing franchisees, has been an excellent mentor to other franchisees and continues to be recognized for her efforts. In 2005, Jani-King of Southwest created an inspiration award in her name which is given to a local franchise owner each year who has overcome challenges to succeed.
Congratulations to all of our 2015 Crown Club winners and also to our two December winners!


Rumours of a Married At First Sight affair have been in the headlines. And secret texts may just prove it.
The couples meet each other for the very first time at a fun, flirtatious and dramatic dinner party. Catch up on a brand new season of Married At First Sight with the recap to end all recaps.
Rumours have been mounting that controversial stars Ines Basic and Sam Ball "cheat" with each other on the series, and a preview that aired at the end of Sunday night's episode showed Ines messaging Sam and expressing her attraction.
"Hello," the text said. Ines was also shown looking at a shirtless photo of Sam on her phone.
"Ines tried to contact me. It's a sticky situation. Where do I got from here? I don't know," Sam said in the preview.
Ines is paired with Perth businessman Bronson Norrish on the show while Sam is matched with Lizzie Sobinoff, and both have expressed they're not happy in their arranged marriages.
On the morning after his wedding to Lizzie, Sam flew overseas to attend the funeral of his ex girlfriend's mother and didn't contact his new wife for days.
The secret communication between Ines and Sam comes as no shock to viewers — with Ines hinting heavily at her attraction to Sam early on.
"He's so hot, I could really see us hooking up. It is an experiment and we're here to experiment. So, we'll see what happens," Ines told a camera at the end of Sunday night's explosive commitment ceremony.
The night ended in shock when Ines' husband Bronson used the C-word to describe his wife in front of the show's experts.
"I'm not calling her a c**t. I'm saying she acts like a c**t," he said, describing her verbally abusive behaviour.
The couple has been together one week, and Ines' treatment of her husband has drawn the ire of viewers.

including the things that work." Whether a call by Coomes to abandon a trumpet in favor of a tripped-out guitar, or a killer drum beat evolving from a simple exercise pattern, or even a coincidentally connected artistic inspiration from Alejandro Jodorowsky, the tarot and a photograph of pets, there was no shortage of eureka moments during the making of Untethered Moon.The album begins with the hard-hitting trio of "All Our Songs,""Living Zoo,"and "On the Way,"songs that are as complex and compelling as anything on previous Built To Spilloutings. Ripping solos, warm tones, vague and familiar Martsch themes of subconscious connection, human commonality and memory, Neil Young influences—it's all there. "Never Be The Same"is a song from Martsch's past, redone and encouraged byCoomes, while "C.R.E.B."is a meditation on the scientific process of forgetting. The album ends with the eight-minute standout "When I'm Blind,"with solos echoing in and out of a drum-tight jam held down to perfection by the new guys. All in all, it's the unmistakable sound of Built To Spill, but with a new energy that hearkens back to Martsch's beginnings all those years ago in Twin Falls, Idaho. Two decades on a major label and even more as a successful musician, the fire and focus haven't changed forMartsch in the least. "We like making music and that's why we do this. Of course if everyone else hates this record, we'll be bummed. We are trying to make music that people will enjoy.

Aphylinae – podrodzina pluskwiaków z  podrzędu różnoskrzydłych i rodziny tarczówkowatych.

Pluskwiaki o drobnym, wypukłym ciele długości od 4 do 5 mm. Przednia krawędź ich głowy leży niewiele bardziej z przodu od ich oczu złożonych. Aparat gębowy ma kłujkę sięgającą ku tyłowi poza biodra ostatniej pary odnóży. Boczne brzegi przedplecza i półpokryw są ostre i tylko nieco rozpłaszczone. Tylno-boczne brzegi przedplecza są głęboko wycięte, odsłaniając boczne części śródplecza i zaplecza. Większa część przykrywek zasłonięta jest silnie powiększoną tarczką. Na sternitach tułowia brak jest rowków. Odnóża wszystkich par mają trójczłonowe stopy. Odwłok ma powiększone i ku spodowi skierowane laterotergity, ustawione poprzecznie w linii przetchlinek trichobotria oraz pozbawiony jest przylgowatych struktur, co odróżnia go od podobnych Lestoniidae. Genitalia samców mają paramery złożone z dwóch stawowo połączonych odcinków. Samice odznaczają się uwpuklonym zbiornikiem nasiennym o zesklerotyzowanej ścianie środkowej.

Podrodzina ta jest endemiczna dla Australii. Przedstawiciele rodzaju Aphylus występują głównie pod korą eukaliptusa kamaldulskiego i upodabniają się do występujących również w tym siedlisku chrząszczy stonkowatych z rodzaju Paropsis.

Takson ten wprowadzony został w 1906 roku przez Ernsta Evalda Bergrotha i bywał klasyfikowany w randze rodziny. Należą tu 3 opisane gatunki, zgrupowane w 2 rodzajach:

 Aphylus Bergroth, 1906
 Neoaphylum Štys & Davidová-Vilímová, 2001

In Radical, David Platt's plea for Christians to take back their faith from the American Dream resonated with readers everywhere. Now, he asks how a gospel-centered vision might reshape our priorities as the body of Christ? How might well-intentioned Christians actually prevent God's people from accomplishing God's purpose? And, how can we best unleash the people of God in the church to carry out the purpose of God in the world?
Writing to everyone who desires to make an impact for God's glory—whether you are an involved member, a leader, or a pastor—Dr. Platt shares six foundational ideas that fuel radical obedience among Christians in the church. With compelling Bible teaching and inspiring stories from around the world, he will help you apply the revolutionary claims and commands of Christ to your community of faith in fresh, practical ways.
-Mark Dever, Senior Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington D.C.

Conversations on a Bench
BBC Radio 4, October (date to be confirmed), produced by Adam Fowler.
A Long Way Home: one programme of a series of two. Anna Scott-Brown talks to passers by — residents and visitors — on a bench by the harbour in the Northumbrian seaside village of Beadnell. Beadnell is said to have one of the highest percentages of holiday homes in the country, and the decline of its traditional inshore fishing means that its character is changing rapidly. My specially-commissioned poem, which draws on Anna's interviews, weaves these issues together with themes of tidal and seasonal change:
Intricately tangled in a mesh of light,
Minutely local, intimate, belonging
Here, Now, and every ripple travelling
To the hottest desert, to the polar ice,
From a time before speech to time after counting...
Britain at Low Tide
Channel 4 TV, 2017, date to be announced.
'Britain at Low Tide is a mixed menu archaeology format produced by Tern Television. In every episode, presenters Tori Herridge and Alex Langlands will strip back a different area of our coastline to tell a new story of our nation's extraordinary maritime, industrial and natural history. Using the latest technology, Britain at Low Tide will reveal one of the richest historical treasure troves on Earth. In the series, Herridge and her crack team of specialists will visit three coastal archaeological hot spots including: a lost pier and a WW1 seaplane launch site in Northumberland; The Maldon Barge Graveyard in Essex; and the very first lifeboat station in the country at Formby Sands in Lancashire.'
The 'lost' pier is here in Beadnell. It was rediscovered about 10 years ago by former National Trust Archaeologist Harry Beamish and myself, from Robertson's 1759 plan of Beadnell, as part of a series of public walks we devised for Northumberland Coast AONB. You can read about it on p.18 of my book, Limekilns and Lobster Pots.
Here's one of my photos in which you may be able to detect its L-shaped outline:
As well as drawing the attention of archaeologists to the old pier, I spent a morning filming other coastal archaeology at Beadnell for the show, which will air in 2017.
My connection with the programme comes via CITiZAN (Coastal and intertidal Zone Archaeology Network). Archaeologists Megan Clement and Andy Sherman visited Beadnell earlier this year and we spent a couple of enjoyable days exploring the village's rich industrial archaeology, and recording a fishermen's hut which was once the village Reading Room. You can read my report on the hut here:

We met up with John and Carol for our tow to Portsmouth. We were visited at the dockside at 10.00pm by our daughter and husband. We slept overnight in the corner of the car park just outside the control gates.
8.45 Mont St Michel ferry for the crossing to Caen. Calm crossing and enjoyed meal in the restaurant. Arrived 3.30pm in Caen port and by 7.30pm arrived at Club Maine Marine, Spay, just south of Le Mans to be met by Jacques Robert manager of Club Maine Marine plus crews of Annie Rose and OAP (Grey Owl having launched at Le Mans not having received our itinerary! Grey Owl couldn't travel downstream due to work being done on the first lock).
Enjoyed a drink in the club and presented M Robert with a club burghee. Due to a misunderstanding, Ali ended up (with Bill, John and Carol as passengers) driving for the first time in France following Mme Robert to a creperie at 10.30 after most had had a few drinks!
Cost of parking at Spay (including launch) was 4 Euros per night. – total of 100 Euros for all parking including leaving car there all through the holiday.
Bernard arrived at Spay with his trailer at 10.00 and all the men left with trailers for Mayenne, where trailer storage had been arranged at Camping St Leonard for 5.10 Euros a day for all 5 trailers! (following negotiations by Bill with the Tourist Board). Bill drove them all back, dropping Bernard in Le Mans and arrived at 2.15pm when we set off for Le Mans on water following trip to the Supermarket. M Robert gave us all Club Maine Marine burghees to fly and stickers.
Walked to town, and cathedral and saw the layout for the new tram system. Before leaving town, travelled on the river to the limit of navigation – much waving from people as there are not many boat movements on this part of the river.
Quiet night – awoke to sun. Very good epicerie. Left 11.00 to the new pontoons at La Suze sur Sarthe – ideal moorings. Ate at the St Louis restaurant with a very good 15E 50 menu: a promising start to our gastronomique trip! La Suze a very nice town.
Sun again. Followed Snapdragon down who left early to meet up with friends. 2.20 on to Malicorne, arrived 3.30. No problem mooring. Town and pottery no more interesting than our previous visit so on to Parce, where we had an evening barbecue.
Parce is a lovely old village – everyone very friendly. English steam boat moored by mill. Saw watercolour exhibition by Ray Toombs of Somerset! Left in sunshine for Solesmes and moored on new moorings by the park. Creperie wouldn't accommodate 10 people so booked at La Boeuf Fermier where we ate in 2002. Another language problem when we expected 'galettes', but as per the menu we had 'galets'which were pebble shaped burgers – but lovely! Had coffee on chairs in the park.
Overcast and breezy so on to Sable for shopping and petrol. Moored on nice small park in Pince sur Sarthe – no shops, but a beautiful field of flowers by the small cemetery. BBQ in warm occasional rain. A local tree was freed from weeds around its base!
11.00 to Brissarthe to shop where we stopped for lunch. Nice piece of river – but nothing else. Chateauneuf had very little, except restaurants. Ate under a willow tree alongside 'camping cars' – very hot evening.
Very hot again and stopped at Cheffes for lunch under the shade of a tree then on to Briollay for the evening. Lots of families, so moved on and moored bow on at end of village. Very tidy village with flower-lined streets. Lots of frog noise in the night and Matchbox moored at other end of village and saw lots of coypu – very large rats! Rain, thunder and lightning during the night.
Awoke to rain which continued all morning, but a welcome relief to heat. Arrived at Angers in sunshine for lunch. Moored on Quai de Tabarly – no toilet emptying facilities as camping car park had been removed for new theatre development. Into city and rode on the Petit Train and saw their plans for a tramway. Ice cream on pavement café and walked around town. Very interesting 'rice display' in the new theatre centre where 1 grain represented 1 person, by 'Stan's Café' of Birmingham. In the evening had fantastic wok meal at the 'Rouge Tendance' on the 5th floor of this building. Quite a lot of road noise during the night.
Sunny morning in Angers, but decided to leave to get away from road noise. Petrol sought near lock down towards the Loire and captain of Tophyl fell in the mud getting back on board. Good job petrol in containers, floats. Tophyl, Snapdragon, Annie Rose and Matchbox off to Bouchemaine for lunch. Matchbox went onto the Loire which was quite strong! Photocall by Bernard at Angers before leaving for the Mayenne. Thunderstorm while we were in the first lock, and lockkeeper kept us locked in as it is forbidden for them to use a lock in a storm. Night at Juigne – improved weather. Nothing in village, but used BBQ and ate on Snapdragon and played Rummikub (others had moored downstream as moorings very limited).
Left Juigne 10.30 for Grez Neuville where we moored on Nicols pontoon (fee payable). Lazy day reading until into creperie for evening. Very quiet night. Matchbox left us in the morning so they could complete the trip before going home a week before us.
10.00 left to go up the River Oudon to Segre stopping at Lion D'Angers for shopping. After first lock swung at anchor for lunch then 2 more locks to Segre. Met Matchbox coming the opposite way at last lock. Sadly mooring on pontoons was 'privee' but moored along wall and had barbecue on grass. Here the river splits into the Oudon and the Verzee, which Snapdragon explored to their limit. Amazing artwork in church perched on the hill, but as with the church in Lion D'Angers, much building work needs doing. Also funny models spaced around the rivers.
Back to Lion D'Angers after exploring town, and moored beside the Hippodrome for a barbecue (made mushroom, ham, egg galettes – lovely!) 2 young boys offered to move from their place on the bank so we could moor together – what a nice country! Raised a glass to Paddy as we remembered his last trip on Jig and how we had retrieved Jig from the slipway here in 2002.
Left Lion D'Angers at 11.30 – overcast and cool. Swung at anchor for lunch then on to Chenille Change halte nautique where we visited the mill which is not only capable of producing flour but also produces electricity for 14 local houses: most of the weirs on the Mayenne as we travel up have their own generators on the weirs. Beautiful village – seemingly owned by local cartel that runs the restaurant, hire boat business, campsite and mill: well-loved church with amazing grotto on the hill. Ate at the Table de Meuniere – excellent 'classy' meal.
It is noticeable that above Chenille Change the towpath is good for cyclists and walkers where the area Maine et Loire changes to Mayenne: a large amount of money is spent by Mayenne to provide this facility.
Sunshine cleared away the clouds for a fine morning. On to Menil for lunch and again moored at anchor by weir as moorings crowded with boats. Arrived at Chateau Gontier after a very large Mayenne Conseil General flag obtained in 2002 from the Conseil offices was erected on the roof of Snapdragon much to the amusement of onlookers. Moored on pontoons by Capitainerie near swimming pool. Explored old town and church – plain but beautiful. Bought take-away pizza and ended night on Snapdragon.
Returned downstream in sunshine to moor at the beautiful Jardins de Frome to go to supermarket. Off at 2.00 upstream towards Mayenne and the start of manual locks. Weather forecast not good, and being a Monday the creperie alongside La Benatre lock (as recommended by Ian) was closed so carried on to Port Rhineguard as there was nowhere suitable for 5 boats to moor on this stretch. Port Rhineguard moorings full of boats at the local boatworks, so moored bows-on to bank and had a barbecue. Agreed in view of weather reports would carry on to Laval in the morning.
Overcast but not raining so left at 11.00 and as one bike had a puncture, OAP's Brompton for 8k to Laval. As we approached Laval so it started to rain. Managed to moor on pontoons at halte nautique in Laval but even the restaurant here was closed due to bad weather. Watched DVDs brought over from the UK, the abysmal 'Brokeback Mountain' and the better 'Last Emperor' as rain fell constantly from 3.00pm. Walked into town in the evening and returned to chat with man from boat 'Noisette' from Club Maine Marine who advised us of bad weather in the channel the next day.
Rained some of the night – but the promised storm never arrived! Feast of the Assumption so very few shops open, but many that had been closed for the summer were to open tomorrow. Chateau only open pm, so after watching a Nicols boat having trouble getting under the Pont de l'Europe due to rise in water levels (it hit twice!) we visited chateau for a guided tour. Had a meal in Le Taverne Maitre Keiter – Tourist Information having found that this was the only place with room – which was excellent meal and service. Returned and chatted to people from 'Noisette'.
Sunny morning – bateau lavoir closed until afternoon, so walked to church – not very attractive. Moved off pm in company with a day boat (English from Redruth who used Tesco promotion for £40 Eurotunnel deal to get there) and canoes accompanied us to mooring at St Jean, which were reserved on Fridays for the trip boat – but were empty for us on Thursday! Alongside an unopened camping car field complete with hot showers, toilets and a lit and covered barbecue area. We spent ages getting the fire going and we enjoyed a communal barbecue and fruit salad, followed by a game of 'Chronology' and silly party games. The lights in the barbecue area even came on as it got dark! Evening not spoiled by a couple of heavy showers.
This section of river is quite different after Laval: lower banks, very rural. All day we only met 4 boats – and they were in 1 lock travelling together! We had a lot of interest from locals and tourists (some English). Met 2 of the daughters of the baker Mr le Peculier and saw the Panda used to help Paddy in 2002 – and they certainly recalled the incident.
Mist soon cleared and we set off at 9.00 for 4km and 1 lock cruise into Mayenne. Arrived 10.00 and visited Tourist Information to thank them for their help in arranging the trip, then to the market and met Mme Le Peculier and thanked her for her help in 2002. Afternoon with men to the campsite to get cars via Snapdragon, and two got their trailers. Carol took Snapdragon back to Mayenne. David drove Tophyl crew back to Spay (56km) to get their car. Barbecue on quay in the evening but ate on Snapdragon as it was cold!
Rainy and grey. Pompiers on quay practicing using hoses and rescue boat (causing waves – so asked to slow down – which they did!) We drove to the Gallo-Roman town of Jublains – fascinating! Showery weather though. Retrieved Grey Owl with no difficulty and they slept on the quay that night as they were leaving at 6.00 am. The rest of us ate at the Grand Hotel – not much better than in 2002!
Cloudy – visited supermarket for wine etc – retrieved trailers from camp-site. As soon as we started to retrieve the boats the heavens opened and it didn't stop raining while we did it: thankfully no problems! All ready to go by 5.30 – GPS took us all on different routes (Tophyl's and OAP's being out of date in places). Arrived at Ouistreham around 8.30 and ate at the restaurant near docks. Atrocious weather overnight – rain and wind.
Ferry (Normandie) left at 9.00am. Sea slightly choppy – but not raining. All survived the trip back and we all ate in the restaurant – we had the buffet. On arrival in England we all went our separate ways – Tophyl travelling to Pewsey for their daughter and husband and friends to use on K and A until Bank Holiday Monday.
An excellent, relaxing 3+ weeks on superb, quiet waterways, with good weather, `super food and really good company. Roll on retirement!
Next story What a GRAND WESTERN IWA trailboat festival!!

With winds up to Bf 7 in the days running up to the weekend, it was good to see a ridge of high pressure move into the bay of Biscay, Sunday promised a blue Sky, light winds and calm seas.
The boats were on the beach at dawn, and we enjoyed a stunning sunrise.
The Previmer swell forecast showed up to .5 meter swell, and was accurate for most of the trip. As we approached La Banche the sea became shallower and the waves became a little larger but no significant difference to the forecast.
We paddled on a bearing direct to La Banche, and with lots more time on our return with the flood planned to return via the 'Grande Charpentier' lighthouse. We reached La Banche just before the Flood commenced, time for some biscuits and hot blackcurrent.
Both 'La Banche' and the 'Grand Charpentier' mark the dangerous shoals that lay in the Loire estuary.
Well worth mentioning is the article written by Rob Mercer in Australia covering Kayak Sailing Safety, it's an excellent text which has given me plenty of food for thought.
Another day with a depression just off the West coast of Brittany, with consequent high winds forecast. However a window of some gentler Bf 3 to 4 winds in the morning were predicted, later to rise to Bf5 by late afternoon.
The wind was filling the sail nicely and I was much more relaxed, and starting to understand how the sail was working.
With the rudder up Sailing Close Reach was fast but I noticed a lot of sideways drift (Leeway) When I dropped the Rudder I founbd by turning into the wind I could counteract the Leeway, as I turned closer to wind the Sail would not fill so well and I needed to pull the mainsheet in tighter. I was then able to sail somewhere between Close Reach and Close Hauled, there was a loss of speed from 7Kmh down to 5Kmh.
Allowing the boat to turn away from wind, and letting the mainsheet out to fill the sail gave me a sharp increase of speed, not so noticable when looking out at the horizon, but when looking at the coast zooming past, it was quite amazing.
I have today understood the term to Gybe, that is turning the boat downwind causing the sail and boom to cross the boat and fill on the other side. The first time it 'happened' it was quite unexpected and unsettling, the sail crossed the deck rapidly and filled quickly with a snap, needing a good support stroke on that side !
I soon learnt that tightning the mainsheet and bringing the sail in closer reduced the shocks effect of the Gybe.
It was another fun day, wind speeds at the start were 12Km per hour rising up to 23 Km hour at the end. When the 'White horses' appear, I know it's time to land.
My first choice to test out the new Flat Earth rig was my local beach at Villes Martin, Magic Seaweed was predicting Bf4 along this stretch of coast all morning, I was a bit concerned that this may be a little high for a first outing…. I've never sailed before !
The sun was shining, a bright 18°C I parked the sail for launching and was soon paddling forward into the wind.
Having put some distance between myself and the shore, before I even thought about sailing I practiced raising and lowering the sail, all was fine everything running smothly.
I headed straight into the wind then pulled the mainsheet to allow the sail to fill. Then I noticed in my haste during the setup, I had assembled the boom joint upsidedown leaving the sail twisted, so back to the beach to correct it.
Again once on the water I headed off into the wind and raised the sail, pulled the mainsheet bringing the boom in closer and the sail filled nicely turning me to Port and I was Sailing !
This post is not an instructional post … but is here to give me a record which I can refer back to when I find I need to do the job again.
So, by way of introduction I have previously glassed on a keel strip but this was over a year ago. I was very content with the results and I believe the materials cost about 50% less than having the work done on a paying basis.
I used 200 grams of resin to lay the tape on, and finished the keel strip with 300 grams of pigmented 'Flowcoat' I used a 2% mix of Catalyst working outside on a bright clear day at 18° C.
I took the skeg out, and the cable I replaced some 3 months ago was in perfect condition. My boat had a Valley cable skeg with a stainless steel flat tape cable. It required continual maintenance, the manufacturers even had a video demo on their website. The problem was rusting.
as the 3mm cable for the skeg, I also ordered this 4mm PVC covered Stainless Cable with the fittings to enable me to rig up a good Security cable for locking the boats up. I made up a 6 meter length which gives plenty of scope for securing multiple boats. It is a great deterrent with its highly visible red coating.

Plagiary: Wednesday Workshop
Plagiary
Wednesday Workshop
No, plagiary has nothing to do with the plague, though it might do in certain circumstances, especially if a plagiarist is plagued by lawsuits from others who think that the thief has benefitted financially or unfairly from the theft.
What is plagiary? The Merriam-Webster dictionary suggests the following, and I quote, with references:
Plagiarius, the Latin source of "plagiary," literally means "kidnapper." "Plagiarius" has its roots in the noun "plagium," meaning both "kidnapping" and "the netting of game," and ultimately in the noun plaga, meaning "net." The literal sense of "plagiarius" was adopted into English; in the 17th and early 18th century, a kidnapper might be referred to as a "plagiary," and, in the legalese of the time, kidnapping was "plagium." But "plagiarius" also had a couple of figurative meanings – "seducer" and "literary thief." It is the latter that has made the most enduring contribution to the English language. A "plagiary" could also be one who commits literary theft (now usually referred to as a "plagiarist") or the act or product of such theft (now, more commonly, "plagiarism").
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/plagiary
From the above definition, we can conclude that plagiary is theft, the stealing of another person's work, and, above all, the presenting of that work as if it belonged to the plagiarist. In other words, creators create: they are not meant to steal and misrepresent.
Does plagiary matter? Of course it does. By its very definition, theft, it is one of the Ten Commandments, and therefore something to be avoided: Thou shalt not steal. However, as with all things, the gravity of the crime depends very much upon the circumstances. In academia, where creativity and original thought is the 'name of the game', the theft of intellectual property is considered by the gatekeepers of the purity of knowledge to be a very serious offence. That is why so many universities so carefully define plagiary / plagiarism and place such stiff academic penalties on the plagiarists who offend. By extension, certain professions, such as journalism and science (in the broadest sense, the creation, protection, and distribution of knowledge) must hold to very strict rules on the subject of intellectual theft.
The article on plagiarism in Wikipedia [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism ] opens several horizons. It stresses that academia (with its spin off into scientific and industrial research) and journalism (with its theory of scooping) are the two biggest areas in which plagiarism is considered offensive. Plagiarism, the article stresses, more than anything else, is re-quoting other people's material while claiming it as one's own and without citing the sources from which it was taken. This quickly leads to the infringement of copyright and this is a much more serious and complicated legal matter, as the article points out.
As for literary and artistic plagiary, this is a very different kettle of fish as artists seem to borrow from each other in the most curious of ways. Molière, for example, proudly announced that, as for his artistic material, "Je le prends où je le trouve." This roughly translates as "I take it from wherever I find it." In his day and age, imitation was a favorite rhetorical device, and the imitation of other people's work was considered more like flattery than theft. Miguel de Cervantes, in the Don Quixote, that most original of novels, took the first sortie of the famous and ingenious knight almost word for word from an earlier entremés (short play to be performed in the interval between the acts of a longer play) entitled El entremés de los romances. This is not so much 'Homer nods' as Homer 'carries a gun and holds up a local bank'. Do we cry plagiary or imitatio when the similarities between the play and the novel's opening are such that for a long time people attributed the Entremés de los romances to Cervantes and referred to it as his early work?
I follow the Spanish tradition and often use lines and words from other authors in my own work. However, I think that what I borrow is in most cases well enough known for it not to need quote marks, nor to need identifying. Though Lovers Be Lost and Broken Ghosts, two of my book titles, come directly from Dylan Thomas's poetry. However, I quote the verses in the opening pages of each book and Dylan Thomas's name is clearly attached to them. If, however, I write "Rage, rage against the dying of the light" … or "Rage, rage … " against anything, I think personally that the attribution should be clear as should the literary dialog that I am starting within the text. Similarly, if I write that "July is the cruelest month, because we expect the sun and it is always raining", then surely the reference to T. S. Eliot is clear as well, and so is the attribution and twisting of his ideas. I have used the phrase "Jack Pine Poems" before now, without referencing Milton Acorn, but most Canadian poets will be aware of the origin of the term without my writing "following in the footsteps of Milton Acorn and his Jack Pine Sonnets" ….
To further complicate the matter, plagiarism is a hydra, and its many heads may take a multitude of forms. Wikipedia suggests that there may well be a whole epidemic of what might be called 'literary borrowings' that verge on plagiarism; there is, for example, a touch of 'literary theft' about all of these: "plagiarism, literary theft, appropriation, incorporation, retelling, rewriting, recapitulation, revision, reprise, thematic variation, ironic retake, parody, imitation, stylistic theft, pastiches, collages, and deliberate assemblages."
However, as the Wiki points out: "There is no rigorous and precise distinction between practices like imitation, stylistic plagiarism, copy, replica, and forgery. These appropriation procedures are the main axis of a literate culture, in which the tradition of the canonic past is being constantly rewritten." The quote marks show that this list is lifted bodily from the Wikipedia article.
What I would underline most strongly is that "the canonic past is being constantly rewritten." Literature is, to a large extent, a writer's dialogue not only with (in my case) his own times, but also with the way other writers have seen the world and written about it. And not just written about it: think of the geometric expansion of oral literature. We hear so much, so much is repeated, words and phrases slip in and out of common usage. There is usually a prime over, an original author, but when a word r a phrase slips into what might be called 'common usage', then plagiarism takes a turn in a different direction.
"To borrow from one author is plagiary, to borrow from many is research," as Oscar Wilde is rumored to have phrased it. As a result, what is considered to be a can of worms in academia, science, and journalism, may turn into an interesting and not necessarily a dishonest practice in the artistic world. How about the erotic cowboy novel that I am thinking of writing? I am going to call it Fifty Shades of Zane Grey … how many copyright laws am I breaking with that little joke? None, in my opinion, yet given a competent lawyer and two or more clients greedy for money, and virtually anything can be turned into a fertile battleground for legalistic dispute. Hopefully, the pitiful pennies that I own and the innocent and innocuous literary discourse that I exchange with other authors, many of them long dead, will not bring on a flurry of lawsuits.
"Where there's muck, there's money," as a famous Yorkshire millionaire once said. So quit mucking about with even the possibility of plagiary, check your sources, and, if in any doubt at all, make sure that you add those quote marks and those references. And remember, it's better to be safe than holding up your hand in court and saying "I'm very, very sorry, M'Lud."

Hi Roger, very good overview of the subject. Thank you for your feedback and research on the subject – following what seemed like a simple question…
Steve C. , August 12, 2017 at 2:04 pm
It was always a 'hot topic' in academia, often for the wrong reasons. I am so glad you brought it up as a question. It's an important topic.

In Canada, we own what we create. It is ours … and that is something special, very special.
That is a good speciality of ur Canada.

A full and fascinating explanation of your subject, Roger. I do wonder from time to time, when I think I am creating some original phrase or image, whether or not it is something I have dredged from my unconscious from years ago and might originally have been someone else's creation.

Леопольд Васильевич Брант (иногда Бранд, Брандт) — действительный статский советник, российский беллетрист, литературный критик и публицист школы Ф. В. Булгарина. Активно сотрудничал с политической и литературной газетой «Северная пчела», издателем-редактором которой был Ф. В. Булгарин. В меньшей степени известны его статьи и заметки из журнала «Сын Отечества». Большая часть журнальных фельетонов размещалась под псевдонимом «Я. Я. Я.».

Биография
Брант отрицательно оценивал как натуральную школу (критически высказавшись об альманахе «Физиология Петербурга» (1845) Н. А. Некрасова), так и, например, творчество Лермонтова (образ Печорина, по мнению Бранта, породил «целую фалангу людей будто бы недовольных современной жизнью, собой и всем окружающим, действительно же весьма счастливых…»). Бранту принадлежат также статьи о повести В. А. Соллогуба «Тарантас» (1845) и др. Отдельно были изданы брошюры «Петербургские критики и русские писатели» (1840), «Опыт библиографического обозрения, или Очерк последнего полугодия русской литературы, с октября 1841 по апрель 1842» (Санкт-Петербург, 1842), где упомянуты с критическими замечаниями 70 сочинений, и «Несколько слов о периодических изданиях русских» (1842), представляющие профессиональный интерес для историков литературы XIX века.

Как писатель Брант опубликовал «Воспоминания и очерки жизни» (1839), повести «Аристократка; быль недавних времен» (1843) и «Жизнь, как она есть» (в 3 частях, 1843, название корреспондируется с фразой Белинского о «Евгении Онегине»: «Пушкин взял эту жизнь, как она есть, не отвлекая от неё только одних поэтических её мгновений; взял её со всем холодом, со всею её прозой и пошлостью»).

Проза Бранта подверглась резкой критике В. Г. Белинского. Вместе с этим, Брант активно участвовал в литературном кружке Белинского.

По словам А. Ф. Кони, Брант «имел [по фигуре] отдаленное и карикатурное сходство с Наполеоном I», чем гордился, намекая окружающим, что «[Наполеон] ночевал в доме его родителей и что мать [Бранта] отличалась чрезвычайной красотой и произвела на Наполеона сильное впечатление».

Белинский про Бранта
«Мы пересказали всё содержание романа г. Бранта, всё… как оно есть, не упустив почти ни одной черты; остальное в нём — болтовня, водяное, многоглаголивое и бесцветное распространение пересказанного нами. Мертво, вяло, скучно, пошло!

Г-ну Бранту не удалась критика, не удались повести, и он вздумал написать роман с "веселенькими" похожденьицами и — очень кстати — с Наполеоном и Гёте; но и этого не сумел сделать… такое несчастие! Роман его принадлежит к той литературе, которая называется по-латине literatura obscena; но если б в этой грязи было хоть сколько-нибудь дарования, мы бы поздравили г. Бранта и с таким успехом…»

Белинский В. Г. Рец.: «Жизнь, как она есть. Записки неизвестного, изданные Л. Брантом. Санкт-Петербург. 1843. В тип. К. Жернакова. Три части. В 12-ю д. л. В I части — 236, во II — 230, в III — 260 стр.»
Опубликована в журнале «Отечественные записки» в 1844 году, цитируется по: Белинский В. Г. Полное собрание сочинений. — М., 1955. — Том 8, стр. 138.

Literatura obscena — порнографическая литература.

Брант про Белинского
«Один из них, тот, что пониже ростом, немного косой, с лицом, свороченным в одну сторону, главный критик энциклопедии, человек не совсем глупый и не без некоторых сведений, но с такими превратными понятиями о вещах и с таким странным, ошибочным направлением ума, что лучше было бы для ближних и для него самого, если б он был совершенным глупцом и невеждой».

Из повести «Жизнь, как она есть».

В полемических целях «энциклопедией» беллетрист назвал журнал «Отечественные записки», коммерчески успешно издававшийся А. А. Краевским.

Брант про Лермонтова
«… породило целую фалангу людей будто бы недовольных современной жизнью, собой и всем окружающим, действительно же весьма счастливых…»

Из газетных оценок образа Печорина («Северная пчела», 1847, 2 октября)

Detail from self-published book, age 5-6, by yours truly, assisted by my brother Neal.
It's something I know now, as a published author long in the tooth, but I understood it even when I was a kid, drawing my first books, telling the words to any sibling who'd transcribe them for me. I could draw, just didn't yet have the ability to write the words.
The art is taken from a book I made as a young boy, miraculously stored safely away in the attic by my mother. You see, long before I got my current gig, I used to make books and sell them to my friends and neighbors.
We all agree that would make a crummy book!


On 15 January 2015, France and Singapore revised their Convention for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion (or "DTA"). The existing version ("Existing DTA") was concluded in 1974 and the new version ("New DTA") will only enter into force once ratified by both countries.
Some of the differences between the Existing DTA and the New DTA are (i) a reduction of the withholding tax rate on dividends, (ii) a new delimitation of the notion of permanent establishment, (iii) new drafting of the article regarding the Exchange of Information and (iv) the inclusion of an anti-abuse clause.
As an initial point, we note that there is no withholding tax on dividends paid to an overseas shareholder in Singapore. As a result, the provision of the DTA regarding withholding taxes on dividends will only apply to dividends paid by a French entity to a Singapore resident (individual or corporation).
- withholding tax rate not exceeding 15% if the shareholder is an individual or a company which own less than 10% of the company paying the dividends.
The New DTA will provide for a withholding tax rate not exceeding 5% the gross amount of dividends paid by a company resident of one contracting state to a resident of the other state which is a company owning at least 10 % of the company paying the dividends. The headline withholding tax rate for individuals or company owning less than 10% of the payer will remain unchanged.
A permanent establishment is a fixed place of business in a contracting state in which a company from the other state carries wholly or partly its business. Depending on the situation, revenues from a company may be partly (or wholly) taxed in the country in which the permanent establishment is located.
A company has a permanent establishment in another state if it has in this other state a fixed place of management, a branch, an office, a factory, etc.
The Existing DTA also provides that a building or construction or assembly project which exist for more than 6 months constitutes a permanent establishment. Whereas in the New DTA the definition of permanent establishment also includes a building site, a construction, assembly or installation project or supervisory activities in connection therewith, but only if such site, project or activities lasts for more than 12 months.
Furthermore, the furnishing of services, including consultancy services, shall encompass the definition of permanent establishment but only if activities of that nature continue within the other country for a duration of more than 365 days within any 15-month period.
In view of Singapore's commitment to implement the new global standard on automatic exchange of information by 2018, the New DTA will modernise the existing process. Indeed, the new article 26(4) will oblige a contracting state to use its information gathering measures to obtain information on a taxpayer upon receipt of a request by the other state. Such obligation shall be respected even though the other state may not need such information for its own tax purposes. Such obligation is subject to limitations but the New DTA clearly states that the limitations shall not be used by a contracting state to decline to supply information solely because it has no domestic interest in doing so.
A contracting state cannot also decline to supply such requested information solely because the information is held by a bank, other financial institution, nominee or person acting in an agency or fiduciary capacity.
The New DTA will also contain an anti-abuse clause in its article 28. This clause states that the benefits of the treaty shall not be available where the main purpose for entering into certain transactions or arrangements was to secure a more favourable tax position.
Other dispositions will also be amended by the New DTA, such as the inclusion of an appropriate adjustment clause on transfer pricing between associated enterprises or regarding taxation of capital gains on the alienation of shares of a real estate company.

Did you know the three stone engagement ring represents the circle of life? It was first created to represent the hidden sides of union between a man and women. My parent's wedding rings are made of three stone diamonds and now I know what holds them together is thicker than blood. But before you dive into other diamond ring styles, why don't you listen to what the experts want to say about three-stone engagement rings including its pros and cons.
What is a Three Stone Engagement Ring?
What does a 3-Stone Engagement Ring Mean?
Trinity means many things in diverse languages, religion, and cultures. It symbolizes God, Son, and Holy Spirit in Christianity; Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva in Hinduism and even Actions, Thoughts and Emotions in Trinity of Consciousness.
Simply put, three stone engagement means much more than it represents. The number three can signify the timeline of your togetherness to ideals of consciousness. Let's see everything it symbolizes so that you can select the most meaningful ring to represent your love.
When an engagement ring is made with three stones stacked one against each other, it is referred to as a three-stone ring. It represents Past, Present, and Future of your relationship including the marriage. An antique allure that sparkles with meaning, three stone rings are created to represent friendship, love, and fidelity too.
Past, present, and future is the firsthand meaning of a three-stone engagement ring. But, it's not as old as mankind. In fact, the three-stone engagement ring meaning of past, present, and future was a marketing campaign made by DeBeers in the early 21st century. That being said, it's you who should decide what the ring means.
There are three diamonds or stones in a three-stone engagement ring. You can play around the size of the diamonds with the ideals you want to project. If you want to focus on your past together, make the first diamond big and vice-versa with future or present too.
"Forever Ring" is the most popular synonym of a three stone ring. You can call it the Past-Present-Future ring or plainly 3-stone ring.
What makes three stone engagement rings better than other settings? Are three-stone rings good for engagement? Should I get three diamonds on my wedding ring? What's so special about a three-stone ring?
If you're looking for a brighter ring, three-stone is better than a one-stone diamond wedding ring, any day. It projects a brighter look with a shimmering allure. No doubt. Given that engagement ring is for life, three-stone is better.
When you select a solitaire, you have to restrict to one stone choice. You can either go for a white diamond or a colored stone, that's it. Hence, three-stone rings give more room to personalize the size to shape and color or type of the stone you want on the engagement ring.
When you add side-stones, the central rock gets more light onto it. That way, you get your money's worth and the rocks on your finger look more expensive and heavy than it really is.
Why should you avoid a three-stone ring? When not to get a three stone ring? Are three stone rings worth it? What is the problem with a 3-stone ring? Find out the expert reasons not to buy a three stone ring for engagement below.
Without a doubt, getting three diamonds instead of two is much pricier. However, with a three-stone ring, you can get a smaller diamond than a giant diamond on a solitaire and still make your ring look brighter and bigger! That way, your three stone ring will cost equal or less than the solitaire you have in mind.
Unlike cleaning one stone rings, you will have to spend thrice the time, effort and money to clean an engagement ring with three stones.
The best shapes for three stone diamond wedding rings are round, radiant and cushion cut rings. Let's look at the best Three Stone Engagement ring styles based on popularity and trend.
