Attend Board meetings on a regular basis via the agreed-upon meeting methods.
Occasionally be available on short notice or for important Board business, electronically or in person.
Be responsive to highly important or critical items raised by the Chair or Liaison (both defined below), including attending urgent or emergency Board meetings, to provide a quorum and conduct voting or other necessary actions.
Strive to conduct Board business transparently following the principles of the open source way.
The CentOS Governing Board shall include two named roles: a Chair and a Liaison, which shall be present at all times on the Board. The Board is responsible for appointing one Board member as Chair. Red Hat is responsible for appointing the Liaison role to a Board member, who must be a Red Hat employee.
Organize and run the Board meetings.
Be the coordinating and lead voice for the Project.
Coordinate the Board to set direction and articulation thereof.
Focus on helping the Board to reach consensus.
Guide the Board in transparency and practicing the open source way in leadership and decision making.
Provide the perspective and insights to the Board on Red Hat business (including potential legal, ecosystem, and security concerns) by acting as the interface for various Red Hat constituencies.
Allow for the Board to bring concerns or perspectives from the community to Red Hat.
The Liaison may be requested by the Board Chair to escalate a decision beyond the Board in some cases when the Board cannot reach consensus. This is discussed in the section on The Role of the Liaison.
The Liaison is required to be a Red Hat employee, which will enable this person to be an effective bi-directional conduit between Red Hat and the CentOS Project. The Chair, however, can be anyone selected by the Board from among its members. The Liaison may be rotated at any time to an alternate Red Hat employee who is a Board member. Newly appointed Board members may also hold the Liaison seat. The Chair and the Liaison cannot be the same person.
The Board will operate under the principles of meritocracy, having the Board be driven by a consensus-based decision model. This model fosters an active healthy debate that furthers the Project while recognising its relationship to Red Hat's product source, the new formal relationship with Red Hat, and preserving the viability of the key upstream that feeds it.

Tiger on the move, gets new practice area
Woods lost in the first round two weeks ago at the WGC Match-Play Championship. (REUTERS)
Published Tuesday, March 08, 2011
Former world number one Tiger Woods is moving into a new home in Jupiter, Florida, that features a custom-built practice facility, the 14-time Major champion said on Monday on his website.
In the first blog posting on his website since just before the one-year anniversary of a sex scandal that led to divorce and the loss of millions of dollars in endorsement deals, Woods revealed his upcoming move from Orlando.
"Pretty soon, I'll be moving into my new home in Jupiter, Fla," Woods wrote. "I'm excited about that and even more excited about my new practice facility. It's phenomenal."
Woods lived in Isleworth, a private community in suburban Orlando, when he crashed a vehicle in the early morning hours after the US Thanksgiving holiday in 2009, setting off the chain of events that led to revelations of multiple mistresses.
Woods purchased property in Jupiter in 2006 and 2007 and ahead of his upcoming move has designed and overseen construction of a short-game practice facility to work on his golf game.
"It features four greens, six bunkers with different depths and kinds of sand, a video center and a putting studio," Woods said. "If no wind is blowing, the longest club I can hit is a 7-iron. It's also set up so I can hit shots out of my second-story studio."
Woods needs all the help he can get with his game. He has not won a title since returning to golf after a five-month hiatus at last year's Masters, working with coach Sean Foley on changes in his swing motion.
"My swing is still a work in progress and it takes time to get comfortable with everything," Woods said. "It's hard to implement all these changes. I just have to keep moving forward.
"I'm light years ahead of where I was at the end of last summer. The biggest thing is understanding what shot to hit and how to adjust my ball flight. Thanks to Sean Foley, I have a much deeper understanding of how to do this than ever before."
The next chance for Woods to end his drought will be this week at the $8.5 million World Golf Championships Cadillac Championship at Doral.
"When will I win again? Whenever it happens, it happens," Woods said. "I'm just going to keep trying to progress."
Woods has won the event six times, but only one of those triumphs, the most recent in 2007, took place at Doral. In all, Woods has won three times on the Blue Monster course.
"I'm looking forward to playing again this week at Doral, where I've had good success in the past," Woods said. "It's one of the tougher courses we play, especially when the wind blows. There are some good risk-and-reward holes, so you can get it going if your game is sharp."
Woods is coming off a first-round loss to Thomas Bjorn two weeks ago at the WGC Match-Play Championship, becoming the first bracket top seed to be upset in his opening match.
"Obviously, it was pretty frustrating," Woods said. "I hit two terrible pitch shots on the back nine and have worked hard to change my release with my chipping. We'll see if it pays off at Doral."
Woods also said he was excited about American Davis Love and Spain's Jose Maria Olazabal being named US and European captains for the 2012 Ryder Cup.
"Davis is a great guy and it will be a bunch of fun to play for him," Woods said. "We've played on many teams together and he's always been pretty laid back. I'm curious about that -- to see how he leads.
"Of course, first I have to make the team."
Of Olazabal, Woods noted, "Ollie was a tremendous competitor and someone I have the utmost respect for. He has taught me a lot and I will always be grateful."


As all experienced livestock owners know, branding horses or cattle is almost an art form. Whether you use a hot or freeze brand, a specific calculated amount of time for holding the iron against an animal's skin is required. Too much time burns a brand right to the skin – too little time means you may have to try again. And "touching up" a brand isn't an easy task. Trust me.
Freeze branding is a technique in which a supercold branding iron, properly applied to the animals hide, kills the color pigment producing cells. The result is white or colorless hair – instead of colored hair – at the brand site.
Our vet Dr. James Foley preps one of our mares for nitrogen branding.
We always get a vet to do our brands. The reason for this is because then we can have the animals sedated in case they decide to try and move around. Our W E Quarter Circle brand goes on the left hip for our horses and on the right rib cage for our cattle. It has taken us a few years to get the brand perfected for horses, but we're pretty happy with it now. Recently, L & H Branding irons even helped us design a smaller W E Quarter Circle brand for the horses which is approximately 2 inches high, as opposed to our old iron which was almost an inch an half taller. The W E Quarter Circle brand has been in Clay's family for many years.
First, we clip a small patch of hair from the hindquarters, where the brand is set to go. Then our vet, Dr. James Foley sedates the mare and applies surgical lube to the area to help hold the cold in. Meanwhile, the iron has been sitting in liquid for several minutes to try and get it cold evenly throughout.
According to L & H, branding times vary according to the metal in the irons (all times shown below are for L & H brass freeze branding irons) and the age, skin thickness and color of the animal. Branders should calibrate their freeze branding irons by branding the recommended times and keeping accurate records of times and results.
This is what the brand looks like immediately after application.
An hour after application, the branded area starts to swell.

Diagnosing a patient with abdominal pain can be challenging. Causes can range from anxiety to life-threatening reasons. There are some symptoms that are more serious and can be considered alarm symptoms. These include weight loss, intestinal bleeding, anemia, fever or symptoms that occur after you have fallen asleep. If any of the alarm symptoms are present; you should be seen by a doctor as soon as you can.
Pain can be associated with a change in bowel habits. If the pain is relieved by having a bowel movement or associated with a change in the frequency or appearance of the bowel movements, try to correct the change in the bowel movements. If the pain is continuous, seek medical attention to try to determine the cause and to start treatment.
Did you know that allergies affect nearly 20% of the U.S. population? The term allergy applies to an abnormal reaction by your immune system to a substance that is usually not harmful. Allergies come in a variety of forms and vary in severity from mildly bothersome to life-threatening.
No one knows why some people develop them, but heredity seems to play a role in their development. Allergies may flare up and subside throughout your life. The immune system protects the body from foreign substances by producing antibodies and other chemicals to fight against them. Usually the immune system ignores harmless substances, such as food, and fights only dangerous ones, such as bacteria. A person develops an allergic reaction when the immune system cannot tell the good from the bad and releases chemicals like histamine to attack the harmless substance as if it were a threat. Histamine produces many of the symptoms associated with allergies. Some of the hundreds of substances that may trigger allergic reactions range from pollen to pet dander to penicillin.
Allergies can't be cured outright, but a variety of treatments are available to relieve the symptoms. If your allergy is severe, see your doctor and get immediate treatment.
Burns can be caused by scalds (hot water, coffee or cooking fluids), coming in contact with hot objects (flames or stoves), chemicals, electricity, or overexposure to the sun. Burns are classified by how badly or deeply the skin is damaged.
First-degree burns are the mildest and are limited to the top layer of skin. The skin is red and tender but there is no blistering. There may be minor swelling. Healing time is 3-6 days.
Second-degree burns involve layers below the top layer. There is more severe pain and redness and blisters form. The healing time varies with the severity of the burn, but is usually closer to 2 weeks.
Third-degree burns are the most serious and involve all the layers of the skin and may involve tissue below the skin. These types of burns can look waxy or white, leathery or charred. There is little or no pain with this type of injury because the burn has damaged the nerves. This injury is often treated by a skin graft.
For first-degree burns, run cool water over it for 3-5 minutes. Keep it clean and use cool compresses and a loose dressing over the next 24 hours. An antibiotic cream applied 2-3 times daily will also help prevent infection. You may take acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain.
For second and third-degree burns, remove clothing from the burned area and run cool water over the burned area for 3-5 minutes. Cover it with a loose dressing and see a doctor promptly. Do not break any blisters. You may take acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain.
Bruises are caused by blood leaking out of blood vessels and into the skin. They can be caused by trauma or illness. If caused by trauma, it can be accidental or caused by abuse. It is important for physicians to determine what has caused the bruising.
The presence of bruising is closely related to the person's age and ability to walk. If someone can walk, they are more likely to bruise from accidents. Persons that cannot walk will most likely bruise from other reasons. Abuse is a cause of non-accidental bruising.
Medical conditions can also cause bruising. Hemophilia, Mongolian spots, infection, and some metabolic diseases are a few of the possible medical conditions. If you cannot easily explain why you or a family member has bruising, it is important to see a doctor to help determine the cause.
If your eyes are itchy, red or crusty more than usual in the morning, you MAY have pink eye. Pink eye, also known as "conjunctivitis", is caused by inflammation or an infection in the eye. It's called pink eye because the white of the eye becomes red or pink when you have it. You can also have drainage, itching or pain with it. Make sure you see a doctor right away because pink eye can spread very easily and it must be treated early. The best way to NOT spread the infection is to wash your hands often. Any time your hand touches your hair or face, the infection can get on your hands, so WASH THOSE HANDS! And STAY HOME for a couple days until the eye clears up. This lessens the chance of friends or co-workers getting pink eye, too.
Use over-the-counter or prescription cough medicine to relieve your cough symptoms. Of course, see a doctor if you have an infection that won't clear up, or suspect allergies or asthma.
A laceration is a cut to the skin. If the cut is not deep, a "butterfly" band-aid may be all that is necessary. Be sure to keep the wound clean and as dry as possible. If it gets wet, pat it dry with a towel. If possible, blow dry the area to make sure it is dry. You can put an antibiotic ointment on the cut and cover it to protect it from infection and further injury.
If the cut is deep and you cannot stop the bleeding or if you cannot keep the edges of the cut together, you should be seen by a doctor within 6 hours of the time of the injury to be evaluated for the need for closing the wound. If you wait longer than that, there is an increased chance of infection by closing the wound. If the doctor determines closing the wound is advisable, it may be done by sutures, staples, tissue adhesive (glue), or steri-strips (similar to a butterfly band- aid). Special situations arise when animal bites are involved. Any type of animal bite (and human bite!) should be evaluated by a doctor as soon as possible. These have a very strong chance of getting infected.
Did you know that ear infections are more likely to occur after a cold or other upper respiratory infection has been present for a few days? During a cold, throat infection, or allergy attack, the eustachian tube that connects the throat and the middle ear swells and prevents air from entering the middle ear. This creates suction, which pulls fluid into the middle ear space. The fluid becomes trapped there, allowing viruses or bacteria to grow and cause infection. This condition is called otitis media. Ear infections are most common in children ages 8 and younger, since their ears have shorter, softer, and more horizontal eustachian tubes, which are more easily blocked. Symptoms include ear pain, fever, drainage from the ear, irritability, loss of appetite, vomiting, difficulty sleeping, and possible loss of hearing. Nonprescription pain medication, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Motrin), may be all that's needed. But always see your doctor to determine if further treatment may be necessary.
A fever is a high body temperature that is the body's normal and healthy reaction to fighting infection and other illnesses, both minor and serious. Most people have an average body temperature of about 98.6°F. A temperature of up to 102°F can be helpful because it helps the body fight infection. Most healthy children and adults can tolerate a fever as high as 103°F to 104°F for short periods of time without problems. Children tend to have higher fevers than adults. The degree of fever may not indicate how serious the illness is. With a minor illness, such as a cold, you may have a temperature, while a very serious infection may cause little or no fever. It's important to look for and evaluate other symptoms along with the fever. A fever without other symptoms that lasts 3 to 4 days, comes and goes, and gradually reduces over time is usually not a cause for concern. When you have a fever, you may feel tired, lack energy, and may not eat as much as usual. High fevers are not comfortable, but they rarely cause serious problems. In general, a fever can be treated with ibuprofen (Motrin) or acetaminophen (Tylenol). Both medications help control pain and fever.
Did you know that the flu and the common cold have similar symptoms, but are caused by different viruses? Influenza or "the flu" develops when a flu virus infects your respiratory system, including your nose, throat, bronchial tubes, and possibly the lungs. (A cold virus usually infects only your upper respiratory tract: your nose and throat.) Flu symptoms are generally worse than illness caused by the common cold. Primary symptoms of flu are fever, fatigue, aches and pains, chills, and cough. The flu is usually at its worst for three to four days. About 24 to 72 hours after you're infected, you become contagious. STAY AT HOME while you've got the flu. You'll recover quicker if you get some rest. There is no one treatment for the flu, but cold and flu medicines, decongestants, saline nasal sprays and lots of fluids all help to ease symptoms.
A broken bone is also called a fracture. Most fractures happen as a result of an injury. Not every injury results in a fracture. How do you tell if something is broken? In most cases of a fracture there is pain, swelling and a deformity.
If you suspect a fracture, you should seek medical attention immediately. Call 911 if there is a serious head, neck or back injury; or if the broken bone comes through the skin.
Get to a medical facility and don't eat anything, in case surgery is needed.
Not all joint pain is from arthritis. It may be hard to tell if the pain is coming from the joint or the area around the joint. A physician needs to determine if the pain is coming from the joint or from the surrounding area.
Start exercising – but start off slowly. The "no pain, no gain" phrase is not good advise.
If you smoke, quit! This helps bone health.
Heat or ice may provide temporary relief.
Medications can help, but ask your doctor before starting any medicines for this; even over-the-counter medications have side effects.
Most people have had pain in their muscles at one time or another. Most of the time, it is caused by an injury (see sprains and strains); sometimes it is not the result of an injury. The common reasons for muscle pain, not due to an injury, are overuse, diabetes, infection and a group of diseases called connective tissue diseases.
If pain is the only symptom, treat it with rest and an over-the-counter pain medicine (acetaminophen, ibuprofen or naproxen sodium) if your doctor has not told you to avoid them. There are warning signs associated with pain that can indicate a more serious problem which may require medical attention. These warning signs include: swelling, lumps or bumps, redness, warmth, numbness or a change in the color of the skin (to red, pale or blue). Be sure to see a doctor promptly if any of these warning signs are present.
The faster you get treatment, the faster you'll recover from pneumonia. So see your doctor as soon as you exhibit symptoms. Doctors typically prescribe a 5 to 14-day course of antibiotics to treat pneumonia.
Poison Ivy is one of several plants that can cause a skin rash called contact dermatitis. Other plants that can cause the same reaction include poison oak and poison sumac. Not everyone that comes in contact with the plant will develop a rash, but up to 80% of people will.
These plants can be found everywhere, including your backyard. When the plant is bumped, torn or brushed up against, it releases a chemical called urushiol. Once the oil is released, it can easily get on a person's skin, causing the rash. The oil can be transferred from one person to another or through the air if someone burns the plants. Your dog can come in contact with the plants and bring the oil home to you.
The rash can begin as soon as a few hours after contact or as long as 5 days later. If you suspect you have come in contact with the plant, be sure to wash yourself (shower is preferred over a bath), your clothes and all tools you have touched since the exposure to make sure you don't continue to spread the oil. You can try oral antihistamines to help with the itching, but chances are high that you will need some form of medication from a doctor to get rid of the rash. If you have a fever with a rash, seek medical attention as soon as you can.
Healthy skin is a protective barrier between the inside of the body and the environment outside the body. A rash is an area of skin that is not normal. Abnormal skin may result in a breakdown of the protective barrier usually provided by the normal skin.
Some rashes are localized to a certain area and may have many different causes. Generalized rashes affect most of the body and are usually associated with a virus or an oral medication allergy. Rashes can be caused by skin irritation, infections, exposure to an insect or parasite, or chronic medical conditions. Some rashes itch. Some may be painful. Some may have no abnormal feeling to them. Some are flat, and some you can feel are raised. The treatment of any rash depends on its cause.
Shortness of breath may feel like you can't catch your breath or you may have a feeling of tightness in your chest. There are many possible causes.
Infections such as bronchitis or pneumonia may be at fault. Being a smoker makes you more likely to be short of breath. Asthma can cause breathing difficulty. Congestive heart failure, stress and panic attacks can also cause you to feel short of breath. There are less common reasons, such as lung cancer, blood clots, or air leakage from the lungs and scarring.
If you are experiencing breathing difficulties, it is important to see a doctor. How soon you have to be seen depends on how severe the difficulty is. In the meantime, if you smoke, stop! Also avoid strong chemicals and smells that can bother your lungs.
Sinuses are air-filled spaces within the bones of the face and head. They can become congested during an infection (viral or bacterial) or from allergies. Sinusitis causes facial pain, headache, drainage (either from the nose or down the back of the throat), and may cause a fever.
Home care includes steam and plenty of liquids to make the drainage flow more easily out of the sinuses. Heat can be applied to the areas of facial pain. Use acetaminophen or ibuprofen to control pain and fever. Sometimes a decongestant nasal spray (Afrin® or Dristan®, for example) can help relieve pain and pressure in the sinuses. You must follow the instruction on the label and DO NOT USE FOR MORE THAN 5 DAYS. Oral decongestants with pseudoephedrine or phenylephrine can help relieve drainage and pressure, also.
The vast majority of sinus infections are viral. Viral infections cannot be treated with an antibiotic; your body has to fight off the infection. If bacteria cause the sinus infection, an antibiotic may be helpful. If symptoms are worsening after the fifth day of illness, if you have a fever after the fifth day of illness, or if your symptoms are not any better within 7-10 days, there is a greater chance of the sinus infection having a bacterial cause. These are clues that you should seek medical attention.
Warning signs of a more significant sinus infection include: severe headache; neck stiffness; drowsiness; confusion; swelling of the head, eyes, nose or cheek; vomiting; or blurred vision. Contact a doctor promptly if any of these occur.
Did you know that a severe sprain can act like a broken bone? Sprains occur when ligaments get stretched too far. Mild sprains occur when the ligament is simply stretched. Severe sprains occur when the ligament fibers are torn. This type of injury tends to hurt right away. There is swelling and bruising and it hurts to use that part of the body. Because sprains and broken bones can look the same, it's advisable to get checked by a doctor soon after the injury occurs. Keep the injury part elevated above your heart and keep ice on it. If there is no broken bone, rest and acetaminophen or ibuprofen for the pain will be the best medicine.
Two types of insects will sting people and other animals – "Vespids" and "Aphids". Vespids are attracted to bright colors and strong odors. They can attack repeatedly for no reason at all. Examples of vespids are wasps, yellow jackets, hornets and fire ants. Aphids usually sting only in defense. Examples of these are honeybees and bumblebees.
Stings can be very mild with only slight redness and swelling, requiring only cold compresses and over-the-counter pain medicine, such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Stings can also be very severe and possibly life-threatening. These more serious reactions develop larger local reactions and if they are progressing after 48 hours, they may be infected. These types of reactions can be treated with elevation, cold compresses, ibuprofen or naproxen, and antihistamines (for itching).
The most serious allergic reaction to a sting is called an "anaphylactic reaction". This can result in severe hives, flushing, and difficulty breathing. This type of reaction is best treated in an emergency room and you should call an ambulance to get you to the nearest emergency room.
Strains occur when muscles get stretched too far. These occur most commonly in the back, neck and legs. Pain may begin immediately or several hours after the injury occur. The area will be tender and swollen and may be bruised. The first thing to do if you experience a strain is to stop using that part of the body. Rest and acetaminophen or ibuprofen for the pain is the best medicine.
Did you know that these are NOT symptoms of Strep throat: coughing, sneezing, a runny or stuffy nose? Strep throat is a bacterial infection that irritates and inflames the tissues in the back of the throat and the tonsils. This in turn causes a sudden, severe sore throat. A Strep infection may also cause a headache and abdominal pain. Less commonly, strep throat can cause a red skin rash, vomiting, loss of appetite, and a general feeling of discomfort or illness. You're considered contagious when you have the symptoms; you're usually no longer contagious within 24 to 48 hours after starting antibiotics. However, if you don't seek treatment, you may continue to be contagious for 2 to 3 weeks even if your symptoms go away. So make sure you see a doctor right away if you suspect a Strep infection.
Urinary tract infections can affect the kidney, bladder, prostate or urethra. (Only bladder and kidney infections will be discussed here.) When most people speak of a urinary infection, they are talking about a bladder infection. Bladder infections are also called cystitis. This causes burning with urination, a constant urge to urinate, and a need to urinate more frequently, often in amounts smaller than usual.
Home care includes drinking lots of fluids to flush the bacteria out of your system and some people drink cranberry juice to help fight the bacteria that are present at the time of an infection. If these measures don't eliminate the problem, seek medical attention.
A kidney infection is a more serious infection because the kidney can become scarred by this infection. Warning signs for this include: nausea, with or without vomiting; fever; and back pain. If you experience these symptoms, seek medical attention promptly.

Pavelko was elected to the Football Federation of Ukraine (FFU) executive committee in 2003, and served as FFU vice-president from 2012 to 2015.
He was elected as FFU president in March 2015, and re-elected for a five-year term in June 2017. He was elected to the UEFA Executive Committee as a member at the Ordinary UEFA Congress in Rome in February 2019.


The case for the importance of lab testing marijuana and strict regulations for all substances sold to the public just became clearer in the Midwest. While marijuana is a Schedule 1 drug placing it in the most restricted category of substances in the country, people will work around the laws and one of the best examples is synthetic marijuana. Three people recently died in Illinois after consuming synthetic marijuana purchased from convenience stores and more than one hundred others have been hospitalized with blood in their urine, coughing up blood, internal bleeding, bloody noses and gums since March 10, 2018. The synthetic marijuana they consumed was tested after the fact and toxins found in rat poison were discovered. Hospitals in Maryland, Missouri, Indiana and Wisconsin have also all reported similar cases and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has notified doctors around the country that similar symptoms could be linked to the tainted fake marijuana.
States like Nevada where marijuana has been legalized, and where Las Vegas dispensaries and other cannabis outlets state-wide are mandated to have all cannabis tested before being sold to the public, are not likely to be as vulnerable to the tainted synthetic marijuana since the natural tested plant is available to the adult public.
However, synthetic marijuana can be found in convenience stores and are often referred to as Spice, K2 and Kush. States that have not legalized adult-use cannabis, such as Illinois, are more likely to see these products purchased since there is no supply of natural cannabis available outside the restricted medical cannabis program. While authorities will ban certain synthetic marijuana, the CDC says manufactures work around the law by relabeling the products and changing the makeup of the synthetic marijuana.
Unfortunately people will do a lot to products to try and make them more appealing to the public and a lack of oversight can let tainted products filter into stores to be made available to the general public. Natural marijuana can be exposed to pesticides and fungus can grow on the plants as well, which is why lab testing marijuana is important.
The goal of lab testing of any sort is to ensure the public that the products they are consuming are free of toxins that cannot harm them. Pharmaceutical companies obviously work on creating synthetic drugs, including ones that mimic the effects of cannabis such as Syndros. However, the pharmaceutical industry is regulated and rigorous testing should prevent the public from being exposed to harmful toxins. Products like K2 and Spice do not see the same level of regulation though.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) - The Winnipeg Jets are finding their stride following a nightmare start to the season.
Patrik Laine and Tyler Myers scored 3:13 apart late in the second period to help the Jets beat the Vancouver Canucks 4-2 on Thursday night.
The Jets opened the schedule with an embarrassing 7-2 loss on home ice to the Toronto Maple Leafs before falling 6-3 in Calgary to the Flames.
Josh Morrissey and Nikolaj Ehlers, into an empty net, also scored. Connor Hellebuyck made 31 saves, and Bryan Little had two assists.
Daniel Sedin and Christopher Tanev scored for Vancouver, and Jacob Markstrom stopped 16 shots.
Laine made it 2-1 with 4:29 left in the second. He took a feed from Little and fired a shot low to the glove side on Markstrom. The goalie was partially screened by Canucks defenseman Michael Del Zotto.
Winnipeg defenseman Dmitry Kulikov hit the post on the next shift, and Myers made it 3-1 with 1:16 remaining in the period when he finished off a short-handed 2-on-1 rush by ripping a shot past Markstrom's ear.
Hellebuyck, who stopped 37 shots in the Jets' 5-2 road victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Monday night, got his blocker on Bo Horvat's chance in front earlier in the power play to keep his team up by one.
NOTES: Canucks winger Brock Boeser, who scored four goals in nine games after signing at the end of last season, made his season debut after sitting out Vancouver's first two games. … Sedin's goal was the 188th of his career at Rogers Arena/GM Place, putting him alone in first place ahead of Markus Naslund (187).
Jets: Host Carolina on Saturday night.
Canucks: Host Calgary on Saturday night.

I shall go to see the new film but the original cannot be beaten! I'm not keen on sport and the Olympics so when there is nothing I want to watch guess what I've been watching? the one and only Swallows and Amazons original! I love it. Glad you have a part, if small, in the new one! Pam Moore age 79
So glad to hear you've been watching the film. Forgive me, I forget, but have you managed to get a copy of 'The Making of Swallows & Amazons' or the ebook?
Kevin Burn
Brilliant – I love it when film makers do this sort of thing! We're going to Keswick for a week at the end of August, so hopefully we'll see the new film 'on location', as it were. I'll be taking the DVD of your version as well, so looking forward to a S&A themed week!
(We went to see the new Star Wars film at the Alhambra there at New Year and when Catbells and the lake appeared, there was a big cheer in the cinema!)
Ah! You'll have to tell the producer. Have a wonderful time on Derwent Water and let me know what you think if the new film – in detail.

Q: Erro com "babylon" ao executar npm run dev em projeto Vue Não sei se realmente tem alguma relação com o problema, mas troquei de sistema ontem, saindo do Windows 7 para o Ubuntu 20.04. No Windows, utilizava o Vue sem problemas. Instalei ele hoje no Ubuntu, mas sempre que tento abrir um localhost, o terminal retorna o seguinte erro:
{ parser: "babylon" } is deprecated; we now treat it as { parser: "babel" }.

*

*A versão do Vue instalada é a 4.5.13. Não ocorre erro algum com vue init.

*A versão instalada do Node é a 16.9.1. Recebo um aviso de que ele crasha sempre que o erro ocorre, mas é momentâneo.

A: Encontrei a solução! Caso alguém precise:

*

*Siga o caminho pastaDoProjeto\node_modules\vue-loader\lib\template-compiler e acesse index.js.

*Você provavelmente encontrará o seguinte código:
  if (!isProduction) {
    code = prettier.format(code, { semi: false, parser: 'babylon' })
  }

*Simplesmente altere babylon para babel e salve.
Essa solução funcionou pra mim, espero que funcione pra você também.

That being said, I couldn't stand this album on the first listen-through. It was too schizophrenic, too far removed from their previous albums (which, really, I should have expected—their sound changes with each new album). I was disappointed and more than a little bit heartbroken, but I decided to give it another try that same night.
That's probably the best decision I've ever made. After the second listen, I couldn't stop. I listened to it again, and again, and again; I think I probably listened to the complete album seven times that night. Absolutely flawless musical moments are rather hard to find, but they abound on Strawberry Jam. The high points of the album, in my mind, are For Reverend Green and Fireworks. The raw emotion of the first song, matched with a simplistic, driving beat reminds me of another Animal Collective song: We Tigers (which, incidentally, might just be in my top five songs of all time). The song culminates with someone screaming "For Reverend Green! FOR REVEREND GREEN!" over and over, turning these words into pure noisy sonic perfection. The beat continues, shifting ever-so-slightly, and dives straight into Fireworks, a complete stunner of a song. In true Animal Collective fashion, the song has several distinct parts, each blending together to create a song that's more than a song; it's a story with a life of its own.
As a whole, this is a solid album— its genius is much more consistent than Feels, with just as much creativity and innovation as I've come to expect from them. Animal Collective and I, I'm glad to say, are still very much in love.

Beloved Dallas Spanish teacher elected as president of prestigious national language organization
KERA | By Bill Zeeble
Published December 8, 2021 at 1:31 PM CST
Akash Patel teaches Spanish at Dallas ISD's Ignite Middle School. He's president-elect of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages.
Akash Patel will helm the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. Patel's twin brother died in a plane crash in 2018, and is the inspiration for a nonprofit that connects students, educators and global citizens.
A Spanish teacher at Dallas ISD's Ignite Middle School was elected as the next president of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. He will assume the role in 2023.
The organization has a membership of more than 13,000 and presidents serve 3-year terms.
It's the latest accomplishment among many for Akash Patel, a 30-year-old, multi-lingual instructor who grew up around vineyards in the city of Nashik, in western India.
At age 18, Patel and his twin brother headed to Iowa State University on scholarships.
Akash planned to study nuclear engineering, "because that's the stereotype for folks like me who are from India. You can either be an engineer, a lawyer or a doctor, or, quite frankly, a disgrace to the family. My twin and I both knew that that was not our calling".
Setting their own course
Their calling was to do the American thing, and —like Huckleberry Finn — light out for the territory. Leaving Iowa State and their scholarships behind, the twins bought a used vehicle on Craigslist, and drove to Oklahoma City.
They enrolled in the local community college. Akash got an associate's degree in liberal studies and was recruited by the small University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma "in the middle of nowhere, Chickasha," to become a teacher.
"They're like, Mr. Patel, you'll be the perfect fit. We need more diverse teachers in rural communities of Oklahoma. Surprisingly, I started student teaching in small towns like Rush Springs and Ninnekah, where people had never seen someone like me who spoke six languages and had traveled to over 50 countries.
"So I saw that spark in the eyes of the kids when I shared with them my stories of working with elephants or with sea turtles or my travel experiences around the globe. And the kids were moved. They were like, 'Wow, who is our teacher? Where is he from?'" Patel recalled.
Patel took their curiosity, the power of stories as well as his ability to tell them and pumped up student interest in different cultures and countries where people also spoke Spanish. At the same time, he realized it helped increase empathy and dispel stereotypes, including his own.
"Teaching in these small, rural communities gave me perspective," said Patel. "I had stereotypes of Oklahomans like, you know, when I first came to Oklahoma, I thought outside my airplane window I would see cowboys and teepees. But to my surprise, I didn't see any."
Patel said that showed him we all have stereotypes.
"Folks have stereotypes of me. I had stereotypes of Oklahomans, but that's when I realized I had a gift, and I saw a gap in global education. We can dispel these stereotypes through conversations, through dialogs."
Forging connections
Patel came up with an idea that would eventually become the non-profit he founded, The Happy World Foundation. He named the foundation for his twin brother, Anand Happy Patel, who died in a plane crash. Patel asked friends he'd made in his world travels and online communities to meet his students in class —all via the internet.
"I started inviting hundreds of my friends from Germany, from Ghana, from India, from Antarctica, to video-call my students in these rural communities," said Patel.
His students would stand up with a map and ask questions of Patel's friends and locate the visitor's home country.
"That's where my idea for a nonprofit was born," said Patel. "I created a database, which today is called the Global Connect database.
Today, The Happy World Foundation has 1,200 volunteers from over 150 countries and their video call classroom is in all 50 states of the United States for free.
Patel hopes the non-profit and his infectiously positive outlook on the world will inspire fellow language teachers to connect with their own students in increasingly creative ways, just as his global video-visitors program inspired his students.
When Patel learned his brother had died, his students quickly rallied around him and his family.
"In the three or four weeks that I was gone from teaching, my students, from a turn-around campus in Dallas, raised over $1,500 for my family for the funeral," he said. "We refused to accept it. When we gave that money back, the students allocated those funds to what's now called the Happy Meals for the Homeless program that since 2018 has donated over 30,000 meals for the homeless."
Coming back from pandemic-era learning loss
Patel says as the incoming president of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL), he's ready to help foreign language teachers tackle the task of making up pandemic-created academic losses, and using instructors' newfound knowledge of teach-at-home tools like Zoom or Teams, all in an effort to shrink the globe just a little more.

Texas struggled to teach students learning English before COVID-19. The pandemic made it worse.


Mallrat, aka Grace Shaw, is back and poppier than ever on new single 'Nobody's Home'. The 20-year-old Brisbanite teams up with Future Classic artist Basenji – another local up-and-comer readying for a big 2019.
'Nobody's Home' is a vibrant and weirdly cheerful expression of longingness and falling in love, and could solidify Mallrat and Basenji's names on the airplay chart once and for all.
The layered textures speak to Mallrat's signature sound, while Basenji's arrangement of glossy synth tones makes this one a must-hear for fans of electro-pop.
ARIA Gold single 'Groceries' turned out to be a massive hit for Mallrat in 2018, placing at #7 on triple j's Hottest 100 and peaking at #80 on the TMN Hot 100.
Basenji's 'Mistake' ft. Tkay Maidza went as far as #83 on the chart, but it's obvious that both he and Mallrat have a lot of room to grow with this single outside of the alternative realms.

Lisa Nielsen: The Innovative Educator: Classes a la carte - I like this!
According to a recent article in Reuters, my former boss John White is disrupting traditional schooling with a model that I like because it puts students first and gives them MANY more choices and flexibility beyond the traditional walls of the school or classroom where so many students are currently trapped today. The model is being implemented in a handful of states and allows students to build a custom curriculum by selecting from hundreds (now, maybe thousands later) of classes offered by public institutions and private vendors as long as they take just one class at their local school.
Students, for instance, could study Russian with an online private tutor, business in a local entrepreneur's living room, geology at a college, Suzuki violin from a certified studio, construction with opportunities developed by their workers' union, physical education by playing on the neighboring school's basketball team or in a community youth sports program, and SAT prep with a national firm like Kaplan - with taxpayers picking up the tab for it.
Especially teacher unions whose members may have to reinvent what they do or lose their jobs. This, however, could become another benefit. A New Orleans teacher is creating an entrepreneurship course she will offer to children. Under this model teachers are driven to provide offerings students will find valuable.
Scare tactics from the naysayers include warning of students who don't have technology access outside of school. This would not be an issue as students still have access to school and library resources and several vendors provide both technology and access.
Arizona state Senator Rich Crandall asks who would be responsible for making sure his daughter stayed on track to earn her diploma or took challenging classes. Yikes! The easy answer is, um...well, YOU, the PARENT. But assuming, as so many politicians do, that parents aren't capable of this, I'd ask Crandall if he's seen our nation's dropout rates lately. About 1/3 of our children are dropping out of school. American schools are not doing such a great job of this. Aside from that, this model does not imply the person currently doing this work at schools would change. Schools employ guidance counselors / advisors who do this work.
The student benefits have the potential to be tremendous. In addition to providing students with a level of choice never before available in traditional schools, other benefits could include things like transitioning more local school staff into those of advisors / guidance counselors as they do in Big Picture Schools and repositioning school spaces from various cells where teacher, text, and test is king to community spaces where students and others can gather for resources and a learning commons.
The abolishment of the one-size-fits all assessment such as we're seeing with this model in Michigan where they will not require all students to take the same standardized tests.
The program is already rolling out in some states and in the planning stages in others. This will not only be one program to watch, it could be one to lead the way to the disruptive innovation that will transform learning in meaningful ways for our children.
Editor's note: This isn't a new idea. Check out this piece from 20 years back in Wired magazine.
This is not playing out so well on Diane Ravitch's blog. A la carte in Louisiana is a radical shift to privatization.


Flu season 2018-2019 is here and so is the flu vaccine!
Influenza is a viral infection that can cause fever, body aches, cough and sore throat, far worse than just a bad cold. A serious life threatening complication of the "flu" is pneumonia.
The best protection against flu for newborn babies is vaccination of their mothers who can pass along the immunity even through the womb.
Northwest Women's Clinic gives Flu Shots by appointment only. Schedule a nurse visit for a flu shot or talk to your doctor or midwife about protecting yourself this season.


Top 5 Highs Of 2010 | Almost there..!
I know it's been almost 3 weeks that 2010's ended, and I promised a post about my 2010. So, after being 2 weeks late, here it is. Haha. Forgive me please.
As all of you may know, I'm an avid acoustic guitar player + singer and I upload my covers at Youtube. It's been a passion for me since I first liked my own recording voice. Hahaha. Sound vain and sick, but I consider it as a gift and I like to share my gift with the world. HAHA. enough nonsense please Lorenzo. I really put myself out there when I auditioned for my campus' talent search. I joined last year, but didn't made the cut to my disappointment. This time around, I made it to the finals. Thank You Lord.
What makes this the list-topper in my Highs of '10 is the ultimate euphoric sensation I engaged into performing on the grand stage of Chancellor Hall and I did my ultimate best for my song. I told my roomate earlier before performing, it's about proving myself rather than really trying to win it. I did it. personally for me.
PCCG was the camp that made me enlarge the circle friends I had in Semenanjung. This is where my leadership quality shown. Been planning this big event with other excos of PCC, especially with the PD from my campus, my ex-roomie – Jeremy. It was an awesome camp. The activities were sooo awesome, the people were amazing, and and I got to dance during the Expo nite. Click HERE for the video :D. Then, I met a special someone in that camp 🙂 Hmmmm, oh2, and got closer to my wingmen during the camp. Ho yeah! ahaha.
3 pix that I love.
I just can't simply pick anymore. Too many great moments that made my 2010 an awesome year. 2010, was also a time for family. I had my grandpa and uncle passed away this year, which was very very hard for our family. But, I got closer to my mum's side of the family during the short un-precidented gathering.
Also had great moments ending the year with family trips, getting to know my cousin's boyfie (Gay, sia ckp pasal ko ni), the Xmas dinner, Xmas after party, the 3 weeks of non-stop alcohols, New year Celebration, Family Treasure hunt which I planned with my uncle. Now, I only got 3 more days to spend with em.
Also, I met up with my high schools friends during the semester breaks. got those people I haven't seen for a long time such as Alvin, Ivan, Aiman, Melyn, etc etc. Also, during the June break, I made a cover of AJ Rafael's When We Say with Anthea and Kenneth. Gosh, these moments are so damn precious.
I can't think anymore :(.
I just hope that 2011's gonna be more awesome or at least equally par with 2010. Well, if life gives you lemon, Make lemonade! And, may this year be a blissful year for me especially in the relationship and friendship department.
← Result of a crazy semester.

SANAA (AFP) - Saudi Arabia, Germany and Italy became the latest countries to withdraw embassy staff from Yemen on Friday as an exodus of foreign diplomats gathered pace due to growing insecurity.
Long on the front line of the war against Al-Qaeda, Yemen has descended into chaos since Shi'ite militiamen, known as Huthis, seized Sanaa in September and ousted the government last week.
Riyadh, Berlin and Rome said they had temporarily closed their missions in the capital Sanaa.
"Due to the deteriorating security and political situation in the Yemeni capital, Saudi Arabia has suspended all embassy operations in Sanaa and evacuated all its staff," said the Saudi foreign ministry.
The United States, Britain and France have rushed to close their embassies over security fears, with US staff destroying top-secret documents and sensitive equipment before pulling out Wednesday.
The Netherlands followed suit the next day.
The Huthis said Western powers had no reason to shut their embassies, insisting security was solid in the capital.
"The situation is anything but stable," said a German foreign ministry spokeswoman, calling the ouster of the government by the Shi'ite militiamen "unacceptable, dangerous and with consequences for the region".
"We decided yesterday to temporarily close the embassy in Sanaa and the personnel departed the country early this morning," she said.
The Italian foreign ministry said: "We hope mediation efforts led by UN envoy Jamal Benomar will create security conditions allowing a return of diplomatic personnel to Yemen as soon as possible".
The latest embassy closures came a day after remarks by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who warned Yemen was falling apart.
"Let me be clear: Yemen is collapsing before our eyes. We cannot stand by and watch," Ban told the UN Security Council in New York.
The instability has been seized upon by Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), which is expanding its foothold across the country.
AQAP fighters overran an army camp in southern Shabwa province on Thursday, that left 12 troops and 15 militants dead, military officials said revising an earlier toll of seven killed.
The militants also seized a large quantity of armour and heavy weaponry, including dozens of tanks and army vehicles as well as artillery pieces, an military official said.
They later handed back control of the camp following tribal mediation but kept the weapons, local government officials said.
UN RESOLUTION DISCUSSED
On Friday, suspected AQAP militants also shot dead an air force pilot in the southern Lahij province, a local government official told AFP.
Since seizing Sanaa, the Huthis have pressed into central and southern provinces and clashed regularly with AQAP and local Sunni tribes.
Last week, they dissolved parliament and declared a "presidential council" after Western-backed leader Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi resigned over what he said was an ungovernable situation.
Ban at the weekend called for Hadi to be fully restored as president, following talks with King Salman in Saudi Arabia, which has described the Huthi power grab as a coup.
UN special envoy Benomar said Yemen had reached "a crossroad".
"Either the country will descend into civil war and disintegration, or the country will find a way to put the transition back on track," Benomar told the Security Council by video link from Sanaa.
Following closed-door consultations in New York, Britain said it would work with Jordan on a resolution to outline the Security Council's stance on Yemen.

Debut Review: Angelology by Danielle Trussoni
Blog, UncategorizedDebut Review, Fantasy Review
Angelology: A Novel
by Danielle Trussoni (Author Website, Novel Website – great fun to page thru!)
Viking – Hardcover – $27.95 (heavily discounted at Amazon and elsewhere)
Genre: Supernatural Suspense
This is my first foray into the realm of supernatural or religious suspense. Angelology was a fascinating look at the possible fate of the offspring of Angels, referred to in the Bible as Nephilim.
Sister Evangeline is a young nun at the Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in upstate New York. A request through the mail from a young art scholar named Verlaine sends her searching through the convent archives, where she finds a fascinating letter. Verlaine works for a man named Percival, who quickly reveals himself as a monster.
I'd hate to say too much because the plot thrives on secrets, and I don't want to spoil any of them. The blurb itself gives very little away:
There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them.
Sister Evangeline was just a girl when her father entrusted her to the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in upstate New York. Now, at twenty-three, her discovery of a 1943 letter from the famous philanthropist Abigail Rockefeller to the late mother superior of Saint Rose Convent plunges Evangeline into a secret history that stretches back a thousand years: an ancient conflict between the Society of Angelologists and the monstrously beautiful descendants of angels and humans, the Nephilim.
For the secrets these letters guard are desperately coveted by the once-powerful Nephilim, who aim to perpetuate war, subvert the good in humanity, and dominate mankind. Generations of angelologists have devoted their lives to stopping them, and their shared mission, which Evangeline has long been destined to join, reaches from her bucolic abbey on the Hudson to the apex of insular wealth in New York, to the Montparnasse cemetery in Paris and the mountains of Bulgaria.
Rich in history, full of mesmerizing characters, and wondrously conceived, Angelology blends biblical lore, the myth of Orpheus and the Miltonic visions of Paradise Lost into a riveting tale of ordinary people engaged in a battle that will determine the fate of the world.
The research in Angelology was fascinating. The various characters uses angel lore derived from the Bible and other sources known as "apocrypha", which, according to Wikipedia, is books that the Christian church considers useful but is not divinely inspired. The plot also depends on a literal interpretation of Creation and the Flood, which in my experience is an unusual plot feature outside of Christian fiction. However, I would in no way categorize this as a Christian novel; rather it is a novel that treats sources such as the Bible and the apocryphal works with equal respect and relevance, along with an unexpected connection to the myth of Orpheus.
Angelology also employs a technique I'm seeing more and more often: it mixes first and third person. The first section of the novel, which is from Evangeline's, Percival's and Verlaine's point of view, is in third person. Then, after a long and enlightening discussion with a fellow nun named Sister Celestine, the point-of-view switches to Celestine's. It is a first-person account of her experience with the Second Angelological Expedition in the 40s. During this section, a series of readings from an account from the First Angelological Expedition is read, which takes place in the 900s AD. The final point of view returns to the above three, along with one or two others.
This is a very long novel, with a lot of backstory and reader education. In order to appreciate the story, you not only have to know all about the Flood, but also about the events after the Flood and the bloodlines that sprang from Noah's sons. Ms. Trussoni manages to make all this interesting and engaging — not at all like a religion lesson. I liked all of the main characters, and I even managed to feel sympathy for Percival, even though he was utterly ruthless.
One of the few problems I had with this novel was the ending. The angelologists (including at this point, Evangeline and Verlaine) must go to four separate places as indicated by four very obscure clues in the letters from Mrs. Rockefeller. Percival, who until this point had yet to succeed in a single task his family set him on, suddenly and without explanation is able to out-maneuver the angelologists at almost every turn. I could see how they were able to be betrayed at one point, but I am unable to account for Percival knowing where they will meet to find the final item. I did enjoy the final struggle between Percival and Evangaline, even though Evangeline's final fate was by now, not a surprise. I also would have liked to seen the parts that were set in the 40s feel more like a novel from the 40s. But the plot was so nonstop at this point that this is not a true critique. I just love it when authors include those atmospheric touches that make it really feel like you have gone back to that time period (a reason I love historical fiction).
The ending gave me a jolt until I realized there was probably a sequel planned. I do wish publishers would indicate whether a novel is part of a series somewhere on the cover or the title page. Although the main conflict is resolved here, there are a great many unanswered questions and one of the characters goes through a major change that only made me want to read more. And that was a good thing, because by this time, I had been reading for weeks.
Angelology was an instant New York Times bestseller, and it is easy to see why. I think Christians and non-Christians can enjoy this book, because on the one hand the treatment of Biblical lore is respectful, and on the other hand, it is not trying to proselytize. I enjoyed it, but didn't love it. If you like plot-rich novels with storylines that slowly reveal themselves over hundreds of pages, if you like secret societies with secret expeditions (and who doesn't?), and if you like stories drenched in research, then this would be a great time to catch this novel and take advantage of all the discounts. (Due to the size of it, I certainly wouldn't want to attempt to read it as a paperback.) I think Ms. Trussoni has gotten off to a brilliant start.
Ugh – I got sick!

4 Thoughts to "Debut Review: Angelology by Danielle Trussoni"
Deborah Blake
An interesting review of what is clearly an interesting book. (And an instant bestseller…sigh…I'd love to have one of those.) I guess I'm intrigued enough that I'll keep my eyes open for it at the library, although I probably won't run out and buy it.
Anne Elizabeth Baldwin
I think Deborah's right. If I spot it at the library, I'll check it out. It sounds intriguing. {Smile}
The library is a wonderful thing!
You wrote: "according to Wikipedia, is books that the Christian church considers useful but is not divinely inspired."
If you are going to write reviews, for God's sake, write with intelligible grammar! That's ARE books .. . but ARE divinely inspired.
Your review is very amateurish. Unlike the beautiful book you attempt to describe.


British chief or king. Cassivellaunus is known only from the war diaries of Julius Caesar and Dio Cassius' later derivative account of Caesar's invasions of 55 and 54 bc. Nevertheless, he may have been a key figure in south‐eastern Britain before the Roman conquest. His territory is described as beginning some 75 miles from the sea, and on the far side of the Thames. This places him in the Chilterns and suggests that he may have founded a kingdom there under the tribal name of the Catuvellauni. His abilities as a leader are confirmed by his selection by the British to lead the opposition to Caesar.


The Mayor of Poole, Cllr Lindsay Wilson, accompanied by the Sheriff of Poole, Cllr Sean Gabriel, will be observing the Two Minute Silence on Saturday 11 November at 10.55am with a short service of Remembrance conducted by the Mayor's Chaplain.

Following the service the Mayor will lay a wreath at the Falkland Memorial in Falkland Square.
Members of the public are invited to join the Mayor of Poole Cllr Lindsay Wilson for the Annual Service of Remembrance and Parade at the War Memorial in Poole Park on Sunday 12 November 2017.

Those wishing to take part in the parade should arrive at the cricket pavilion in Poole Park by 9.45am and make themselves known to the parade marshal.
The Parade will make its way to the War Memorial, where the service will begin at 10.50am, led by the Mayor's Chaplain. The Salvation Army band will accompany the congregation in hymns, with the Service also featuring readings, prayers and the laying of wreaths. Two minutes silence will be observed following the sounding of the Last Post. This year's service will also feature a salute from a field gun which will be fired to mark the beginning and end of the Two Minute Silence. Following the service, the Deputy Lieutenant and the Mayor of Poole will take the Salute from the Parade, which will make its way from the War Memorial to the Cricket Pavilion, where it will then be dismissed.
Please be advised that there is restricted vehicle access to Poole Park for the duration of the event and free parking is available in the multi storey car park at the Civic Centre.

Study: Related Conditions Associated with ADHD Don't Impact Both Genders Equally
A study confirmed that ADHD impacts both genders equally, but suggests that related conditions do not break down evenly between the sexes. For example, substance-abuse problems are more likely in men, while related personality and anxiety disorders are more common in women.
By Devon Frye Verified Updated on March 31, 2022
Despite inconsistent diagnosis rates in men and women, ADHD is equally likely to occur in both genders. A soon-to-be-printed study supports this medical conclusion, but adds another dimension to the relationship between ADHD and gender: Some comorbid psychiatric disorders commonly associated with ADHD are far more likely in one sex than the other. Specifically, men with ADHD are more likely to have substance-abuse problems while women with ADHD are more likely to have personality or mood disorders as well.
The study was conducted in 2014 by a team from Denmark, but will be published in the November 2016 issue of the Journal of Attention Disorders. The researchers looked at 155 adults, 65 percent of whom were men. All of them had been diagnosed with ADHD and were being treated at Psychiatric Services West in the city of Herning. At the study's start, all the patients were clinically re-assessed for ADHD and screened for the presence of other psychiatric disorders.
Some of the results were fairly predictable. The researchers concluded, for instance, that men were twice as likely to be diagnosed with ADHD as women, and that adults older than 25 were less likely than their younger counterparts to have received a formal diagnosis in childhood. Most of the subjects (78 percent) were diagnosed with ADHD-Combined type, while 18 percent were primarily Inattentive and a mere 4 percent were primarily Hyperactive.
When the researchers turned their attention to comorbid conditions, however, the results became somewhat surprising. Nearly 60 percent of the subjects had at least one comorbid condition alongside ADHD, which the researchers expected. But surprisingly, men had a slightly higher chance of comorbid disorders overall — although women were more likely to have more than one.
The types of comorbid disorders differed sharply along gender lines, too. Men were three times more likely to have a substance-abuse disorder than were women — with 34 percent of those men abusing multiple drugs at once. Women, on the other hand, were more than twice as likely to have a personality disorder. Women were also slightly more likely to have a mood or anxiety disorder — though not as likely as the researchers had originally hypothesized.
The researchers were also shocked to find that there no significant gender differences between the different subtypes of ADHD. It's long been assumed that women lean heavily toward the quieter inattentive subtype — explaining why they often go undiagnosed — but in this study, men were actually more likely to be diagnosed as primarily inattentive. This could be merely the result of a small sample size that skewed male, the researchers write, but it could also indicate that our current assumptions about women and ADHD may not be totally accurate.
The results make one thing clear, the researchers say: comorbidities should be taken into account from the moment ADHD is diagnosed.
"Adults with ADHD are a highly psychiatrically impaired group," they write. "Knowing ADHD and related comorbid symptom profiles can contribute to a sharpening of the clinicians' attention toward specific subgroup symptoms and impairments and thereby to an improvement of the diagnostic precision."
On top of that, they conclude, "It can contribute to a refinement of treatment methods specifically targeted at particular subgroups."

The Makings of a Trilogy
It starts with 'The Thirteen Club'—the story of how Howard Layton's wife, Nárcissza, and her family fled Hungary to escape the advancing Russians. Its prequil, 'Love and Sand,' is a factual memoir of young navigator/bombardier Alec Layton's perilous missions against the Axis forces during his service in the Royal Air Force in the WWII conflict in North Africa. The trilogy is to be completed with 'Death of Cope Street,' which is presently in the research phase.
Click on each book for a synopsis.
Love and Sand
'Love and Sand' is a love story set against the background of the WWII conflict in North Africa. It tells the true story of young navigator/bombardier Alec Layton's perilous missions against the Axis forces during his service in the Royal Air Force.
With historically true accounts of vital military activities, including the air escorted evacuation of Greece and the offensive against the Italian Abyssinian base at Makale, it is also the first—and only—book written by an actual participant in the vital air support of the battle that changed the course of the war – El Alamein. This much needed victory at the third and final confrontation by the British 8th Army against Rommel's forces spread new optimism throughout the Allied world.
Against this riveting background of desert warfare, the author tells the story of Alec's first love, Verna; how he won her and how, through the fecklessness of youth and the uncompromising demands of military service, he lost her. Throughout his long years in the deserts of Africa, Alec longs for Verna and forever relives the day when, under continuing pressure from his military colleagues, he told her the lie that would haunt him for the rest of his life.
Desolated by his loss, Alec seeks solace in the arms of exotic beauties of the nearby cities of Alexandria and Cairo, engaging in short-lived romances and torrid affairs yet never able to ease his yearning for his first true love.
By flashing back and forth between the powerful love story that began in Alec's homeland and the gripping aerial sorties over the deserts of North Africa, the author has cleverly interwoven the two, presenting a very human story with equal appeal to both men and women alike.
Finally, 'Love and Sand' presents a never before published account of the white-knuckle Fighter Aircraft Delivery Service across the 3000 miles of the legendary Sahara Desert. In providing his personal perspective on these historic events, the author honors the skill, loyalty and courage of his fellow airmen.
Buy the book now in either paperback or for the Kindle.
The Thirteen Club
Abandoning their elegant home, their country estate and priceless heirlooms during the last days of World War II, the Ludanyi family fled their homelend. Even as they crossed the western border into the safety of Austria, the whole of Hungary was falling into Russian hands. For nearly four years, Colonel Ludanyi and his family were refugees without a country. Finally, the colonel was offered an opportunity to take care of a string of horses on an estate in Virginia, in America. But by the time they set foot on American soil, the opportunity had mysteriously vanished. Instead, the family of seven found themselves on a small dairy farm where the older children had to pitch in with their parents and work harder than they had ever worked, just to pay for the basics—food and shelter.
The Thirteen Club traces the family's steady progress during their first days in the United States. The story tells of their eventual move to New York in search of better opportunities for their children.
