Q: Setting content type in Jena RDFConnection Header I need to modify the header (specifically the Content-Type) of a request (eg: update) of an RDFConnection object in a Jena transaction. More precisely,  I need to add the following Header Content_Type
Content-Type = [application/sparql-query; charset=UTF-8]
in the following code
try (RDFConnection conn = connectionFactory.create()) {
  Txn.executeWrite(conn, () -> {
    conn.update(updateRequest);// HERE we want to setup the Content-Type in the header
  });
}catch (Exception e) {... }

I have setup the connectionFactory as follow
public RDFConnection create() {
    HttpClientBuilder httpClientBuilder = HttpClientBuilder.create();
    HttpClient httpClient = httpClientBuilder.setDefaultCredentialsProvider(credentialsProvider)
        .build();
    return
        RDFConnectionRemote.create()
        .destination(endpointURL)
        .queryEndpoint("query")
        .updateEndpoint("update")
        .httpClient(httpClient)
        .parseCheckSPARQL(true)
        .build();
  }

So, I still need to specify the charset of the request body in the the request header content-Type . How can I do that with JENA ?
Note: the default JENA RDFConnection setting is not sufficient because the remote endpoint still needs the explicit specification of the charset to parse my SPARQL requests containing French accents in the URIs.
Thanks in advance

A: Apache Jena 4.3.2 has a uniform interface with detailed control of HTTP requests.
http://jena.apache.org/documentation/sparql-apis/#changes
For SPARQL update UpdateExecutionHTTP.newBuilder() and SPARQL query QueryExecutionHTTP.newBuilder(), there is a builder operation for setting any HTTP headers.

Q: How to count the number of active windows open apart from that of the window manager? I would like to count the number of active windows open apart from that of the window manager I am using. I am aware that wmctrl can do this, however, when I do the following:
wmctrl -l

on my Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit desktop using unity as the window manager, the output I get is:
0x03c00002  0 stepup XdndCollectionWindowImp
0x03c00005  0 stepup unity-launcher
0x03c00008  0 stepup unity-panel
0x03c0000b  0 stepup unity-dash
0x03c0000c  0 stepup Hud
0x02c0000a  0 stepup Desktop
0x02e000b3  0 stepup How to count the number of active windows open irrespective of window manager? - Unix & Linux Stack Exchange - Mozilla Firefox
0x0340000c  0 stepup Terminal

However, I would want to ignore the windows that unity/gnome/KDE, etc. uses and count just the windows the user has opened on his own. How do I this?

A: There is no formal definition of window belonging to the window manager or "opened on his own". Technically, the window manager role doesn't call for any window: it's other parts of the desktop environment (typically called widgets) that have windows. There is no attribute on a window or on an application that says "this is part of the desktop environment".
You can run wmctrl -lx and identify the windows you don't care about by their class. I haven't checked what classes the various common desktop environments use, fill in the list as desired.
wmctrl -lx | awk '$3 !~ /^(Unity-.*|Kwin|Boringstuff)$/'

Alternatively, maybe detecting non-sticky windows will fit your bill. Sticky windows are the ones that are displayed on all workspaces. I don't know if this works with all window managers.
for w in $(wmctrl -l | awk '{print $1}'); do
  if ! xprop -id $w _NET_WM_STATE | grep -q _NET_WM_STATE_STICKY; then
    wmctrl -l -i $w
  fi
done

President Trump is ramping up his rhetoric on immigration as he prepares for a three-day campaign swing of western states.
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump said Thursday that Democrats "wanted" the caravan of immigrants making its way to the U.S., the latest example of the president putting immigration at the center of next month's election.
"They wanted that caravan," Trump said of Democrats during a rally in Montana. "It's going to be an election of the caravan."
Trump is ramping up his rhetoric on immigration as he beginsa three-day campaign swing of western states where border security has become a top issue in the upcoming election.
As another caravan of Central American immigrants wound its way north to Mexico, Trump threatened Thursdayto close the southern U.S. border – shutting off access to one of the nation's largest trading partners – if Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto did not stop the travelers.
"I'm willing to send the military to defend our southern border if necessary, all because of the illegal immigration onslaught brought by the Democrats," Trump said.
Trump's remarks – which are likely to fire up the Republican base of the party – come as the president is increasingly focused on next month's election, with campaign rallies scheduled in Montana, Arizona, Nevada and Texas over the course of the next several days.
In a series of Twitter posts Thursday, Trump also threatened to withhold aid payment to central American countries and he made a pointed demand to Mexico to stop the "onslaught" of the undocumented immigrants.
Polls show immigration, a central theme of Trump's 2016 presidential election, is still resonating with voters, particularly in the GOP.
A CBS News/YouGov poll this month found 61 percent of registered Arizona voters described illegal immigration as a "big problem," with 9 percent viewing it as not a problem. An NBC News/Marist poll pegged immigration as the third-most important issue among likely voters in Nevada, behind the economy and health care.
After speaking in Montana for GOP Senate hopeful Matt Rosendale, Trump will campaign for Rep. Martha McSally in Arizona on Friday, incumbent Nevada Sen. Dean Heller on Saturday and incumbent Texas Sen. Ted Cruz on Monday. All four have made immigration a part of their campaign.
Trump supporters, gathered for the president's rally in Montana on Thursday, stressed the importance of the issue.
Kinda Martin, 79, who arrived at Trump's rally in Montana hours before Air Force One touched down in the state, was hoping the president would discuss immigration.
"I think he's about the best hope we have right now," she said of Trump.
Martin said she believed Trump had made some progress on the issue, "but not nearly enough." Martin said the blame rested at least partly with Congress, where Republicans have a margin so slim in the Senate that Democrats can block most bills.
Trump frequently makes the same point at his rallies.
Windee Rigler of Corvallis, Montana, framed the immigration debate in economic terms.
Immigrant advocates say campaigning on the issue, driven by Trump, is growing more intense.
Trump has made immigration a central political theme for years. At every campaign rally this year the president has mentioned his proposed border wall with Mexico and has lamented the violence carried about the Central American-based gang MS-13. He has also framed Democrats as the "party of crime," citing proposals such as the elimination of Immigration and Customs Enforcement that have originated from the liberal wing of the party.
But the issue has taken on added significance both on the trail and within the White House in recent weeks.
White House officials on Thursday tried to push back on a story, first reported by Bloomberg, that Chief of Staff John Kelly and the national security advisor, John Bolton, got into a shouting match outside the Oval Office over immigration. Some within the White House have criticized Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, a Kelly ally, for not doing more to secure the U.S. border with Mexico.

Iowa university leaders denounce Virginia 'terrorism'
Aug. 15, 2017 7:59 pm, Updated: Aug. 16, 2017 2:39 pm
The presidents of Iowa's three state universities this week each denounced the racism and violence displayed last weekend in Virginia.
As students started arriving for fall classes, Iowa State University Interim President Ben Allen and University of Northern Iowa President Mark Nook issued statements to their campuses.
University of Iowa President Bruce Harreld and other UI executives met individually with students in the diverse Iowa Edge program, and then with other students moving in on campus.
'As President Harreld has said previously, we will not tolerate anything but a safe and inclusive campus for students of all backgrounds," said UI spokeswoman Jeneane Beck. 'No one should feel that their race or any aspect of their identity makes them a target."
ISU's Allen, in a campus letter Monday, said he was appalled by the white supremacists' actions he described as 'abhorrent." He said ISU's senior leadership has been meeting to 'reassess our approach to campus climate."
Those discussions involved training for campus leaders and enhancing campus security, according to the letter. A previously-scheduled meeting for Thursday will incorporate the Charlottesville, Va., events 'into our leadership development," according to Allen.
UNI's Nook, similarly, charged his campus with being vigilant against attacks on 'the core principles of our democracy" and 'the core principle of a university - academic freedom, which cannot exist without free and open expression, unbridled by hatred, intimidation and violence."
'As a university community, we cannot look away from these tragic events and pretend that they don't affect us at UNI or that they can't happen here," he wrote. 'These racist acts of terrorism were intended to intimidate and silence others. We can never allow such acts to occur without a response, especially when those acts come under the guise of free speech."
At the UI, Beck said Vice President for Student Life Melissa Shivers and Interim Chief Diversity Officer and Associate Vice President Lena Hill wanted to meet with arriving students to get a better sense of what resources and support to provide, since many just arriving were not yet on the university's email.
Iowa's public universities in the last academic year experienced numerous reports of hate speech and racism - including a spike around the 2016 election.
The three universities at the time affirmed their support for a diverse and international student population on campus.
This week, Allen and Nook reiterated that in their messages.
'Next week, when classes begin, Iowa State will welcome students, faculty and staff from all across the country and around the globe," Allen wrote. 'We value people of all races, ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations, abilities and backgrounds. Hatred, racism and bigotry have no place at Iowa State University."

Man accused of murdering wife 'boasted' of sexual prowess to her friend, court told
9:39pm Aug 16, 2019
During trips to South East Asia, accused killer John William Chardon would have sex with teenage girls and in the United States he would sleep with sex workers, only to return to his Gold Coast home to reveal all to his wife.
His trial has also heard that hours after he says Novy Chardon packed her bags and left her family behind in 2013, Chardon asked her best friend if her husband pleased her in bed - and boasted of his sexual prowess.
The 71-year-old is on trial in the Brisbane Supreme Court after pleading not guilty to murdering his 34-year-old wife in February that year.
John Chardon has been committed to stand trial for the alleged murder of his wife Novy. (AAP)
Her body has never been found but she has not left the country, seen a doctor or used her bank accounts since.
Ms Chardon's last known contact was with her friends on the night of February 6.
When friend Frederika Wong went to the family's Upper Coomera home the next day to find out why she wasn't answering her phone, Chardon propositioned her for sex.
Ms Wong told the court Chardon asked her whether her husband could please her sexually, before boasting of his own performance.

"He asked if my husband makes me happy," Mrs Wong told the court today.
Novy Chardon was last seen on February 6, 2013, but her body has never been found despite an extensive search and a $250,000 reward. (AAP)
"I didn't know what to say."
She left the house after that.
One after another of Novy Chardon's friends took to the witness box on Friday, detailing a marriage in free fall and a woman who wanted out.
Ms Chardon had met, fallen in love with and married Chardon within a matter of weeks in 2000.
"She genuinely, genuinely loved him, and she did say he was a different man when she met him," friend Deborah Manduapessy testified.
But as the years passed, Ms Chardon told Ms Manduapessy of verbal abuse from her husband, becoming anxious and suffering increasingly regular panic attacks because of his affairs.

"She told me that he's been sleeping with other women, and that he is sleeping with children in Indonesia and the Philippines, not young children, 16 and 17-year-olds, and showing their pictures," she said.
When she confronted Chardon about what had happened in the days after Ms Chardon vanished, he said his wife was "greedy" and an "evil person".
It was then Ms Manduapessy reported her as missing.
In the years she had seen eyelash technician Jane Elizabeth Padden, Ms Chardon spoke of being unhappy in her marriage and her want for a divorce.
She also told her about the other women.
"She told me that when he went abroad he would have girlfriends in the Philippines, when he went to America that he used prostitutes," Ms Padden told the court.
Ms Chardon fell in love with a younger man when the couple separated in 2012, but was later devastated when he left her.
The court heard she bought a secret house in her home country and told relatives she was afraid.
The trial will resume on Monday.

Der Freizeitsportclub Dynamo Windrad e.V. ist ein in Wehlheiden gegründeter deutscher Sportverein mit Sitz in der Kasseler Nordstadt, der zu den größeren Vereinen in Nordhessen zählt. Der Verein entwickelte sich von einer Randerscheinung des "alternativen" Sports zu einer festen Größe im bundesweiten Vereinswesen, was jedoch weniger auf sportliche als auf sportpolitische und -kulturelle Erfolge zurückzuführen ist.

Geschichte
Der Verein wurde 1982 von einer Handvoll Freizeitfußballer in Kassel gegründet. Ziel war die Beantragung von städtischen Spielflächen zur dauerhaften Ausübung des Fußballsports, den sie bis dahin in Parks und auf Bolzplätzen ausübten. Darüber hinaus wollten sich die Gründer von bestehenden Fußballvereinen "alternativ" absetzen. Gehalten hat sich bis heute zum Beispiel die Tradition, dass der Ball beim Anstoß zum Gegner gespielt wird, was ein Symbol für das Miteinander im Sport und die Absicht eines fairen Spiels darstellen soll. Während des Rechtsstreits um die Aufnahme in den Hessischen Fußball-Verband unternahmen Vereinsmitglieder Reisen in die DDR, die Sowjetunion, nach China und Kuba. Das Angebot wurde 2001 um eine Segelsportabteilung erweitert.

Namensstreit
Mit der Anmeldung des Vereins Dynamo Windrad im Hessischen Fußball-Verband (HFV) begann ein Rechtsstreit über die Namensgebung des Vereins. Der HFV wollte den Namensteil Dynamo nicht gestatten mit der Begründung, dass es sich um eine politische Aussage handele, die Sportvereinen per definitionem nicht zukomme. Dynamo erinnerte nach Meinung des HFV an die Namen von DDR-Vereinen und sei in der Bundesrepublik nicht statthaft.

Dynamo Windrad reichte Klage ein und stritt mit dem HFV bis zum Oberlandesgericht Frankfurt am Main, wo der Verein den Rechtsstreit verlor. Das Oberlandesgericht entschied, der Namenszusatz Dynamo werde "von der ganz überwiegenden Mehrheit der Bürger, denen das internationale Sportgeschehen nicht völlig gleichgültig ist, ganz spontan dem kommunistischsozialistischen und damit politisch linken Lager zugeordnet". Eine anhängige Klage vor dem Bundesverfassungsgericht wurde 1989 zurückgenommen. Zeitweilig trugen die Spieler Trikots, auf denen ein Adler aus dem DFB-Wappen stürzt.

Ein Aufnahmeversuch in den Deutschen Turn- und Sportbund der DDR scheiterte 1988, weil nur DDR-Bürger dort Mitglied sein dürften.

Die Anerkennung als Verein im Sportbetrieb erfolgte erst 1990 nach der Wiedervereinigung, nachdem ab 1991 mit Dynamo Dresden ein Verein mit dem Namensbestandteil Dynamo in der Fußball-Bundesliga spielte.

Veranstaltungen
Dynamo Windrad ist heute in der bundesweiten "alternativen" Fußballszene bekannt und setzt sich in Veranstaltungen regelmäßig mit Themen wie der gesellschaftlichen Bedeutung des Fußballs, Rassismus und Fremdenfeindlichkeit sowie Fußballsatire auseinander.

Dazu zählen insbesondere auch die Großveranstaltungen, die der Verein in den letzten 20 Jahren durchgeführt hat. Neben den jährlichen Kasseler Freizeitturnieren im Fußball (Bolz-Masters im Sommer und Iron Cup im Winter) und im Volleyball wurde die Bühne des Freizeitfußballs in Richtung internationaler Begegnung und Austausch geöffnet. Zur Deutschen Alternativ Meisterschaft im Freizeitfußball 2004 (DAM 04) in Kassel wurden erstmals internationale Teams zur Teilnahme eingeladen. Zur bislang größten Veranstaltung Dynamo Windrads wurde die 2006 in Kassel durchgeführte BOLZ-WM, bei der in zehn Tagen fünf Fußballturniere für über 120 Mannschaften mit Teilnehmern aus über 20 Nationen veranstaltet wurden.

Der Verein veranstaltete von 1993 bis 1997 das Kasseler Bluesfest im Gebäude der früheren Ingenieurschule. Die Wanderausstellung "Satanische Fersen", die in Kooperation mit dem Verein Caricatura entstand, wurde 1994 in Kassel und anschließend in 15 deutschen und französischen Städten gezeigt.

And, just like that, it was (almost) over! 2018 is rapidly drawing to a close, and I'm sure we all look eagerly forward to spending some well-deserved time off with our families.
What a year it's been! Essentially, 2018 in South Africa has been a year of polar opposites, with both good news and disappointing news seemingly the order of the day. On the whole, though, we at SANY/Bobcat remain optimistic about the future of this great country. We keenly await the 2019 elections, after which we think that meaningful change will begin to emerge. So it may be a long, hard road ahead, fraught with many challenges, but at least our country is no longer charging over the edge of the abyss as we seemed to be prior to December 2017.
In the midst of all this uncertainty, the one thing that remains consistent is SANY/Bobcat's commitment to excellence. Are we there yet? No. Will we ever get there? Probably not. After all, 'excellence' implies absolutely no slip-ups or dropped catches – something that I've yet to see in any business, in any part of the world. But a commitment to excellence is key, as this will bring us ever-closer to perfection.
On this note, I'd like to thank my wonderful, committed team, who have pulled together so tightly this year to ensure that we continue along our march towards excellence. We've filled critical posts and, importantly, replaced staff where we thought we were weak. In particular, we have made some excellent changes and appointments within our aftermarket team, in recognition of the fact that this is the most important aspect of our business. A great business, after all, is about having the best people. And this is our relentless task: We shall not stop until we have the best possible people in each role in our business. Without this, how can we possibly strive for greatness?
In closing, I would like to thank all of you, our loyal customers, for your support for both the Bobcat and SANY brands this year. We do appreciate the business you give us. Without you, quite frankly, we wouldn't have a business. We understand that there are options out there, and so we are always grateful when you choose to work with us.
I wish you all of the very best over the Festive Season. Have fun and relax and, most importantly, enjoy the time that you spend with your loved ones. After all, this is the most precious time of all!

Basic Psychology Used Unethicly
By Donald P. Jane on 09-16-17
Narrator Needs to go
I really wanted to like this book and I really wanted to be interested in it, but the damn narrator was incredibly distracting. The whistling sounds he does on every S sound is way too overbearing. I was trying to pay attention to the information in the book, but soon thought I was listening to a shitty version of Whistle While You Work by one of the seven dwarfs having a stroke. Seriously, get rid of the narrator.
Imperfect Justice
Prosecuting Casey Anthony
By: Jeff Ashton
Narrated by: Jeff Ashton
It was the trial that stunned America, the verdict that shocked us all. On July 5, 2011, nearly three years after her initial arrest, Casey Anthony walked away, virtually scot-free, from one of the most sensational murder trials of all time. She'd been accused of killing her daughter, Caylee, but the trial only left behind more questions: Was she actually innocent? What really happened to Caylee? Was this what justice really looked like?
Surprisingly Compelling -
Why She Went Free
This book is proof as to why I was not surprised Casey Anthony got away with murder. Before the verdict came out, I told people she was going to be found Not Guilty because the prosecution failed to prove Casey Anthony murdered her child. I'm not bashing the prosecution because this book covers how hard their case was, what little they really had to run on evidence wise, and the circus that allowed a dimwit jury to let a child killer go free.

This in-depth examination of Bundy's life and his killing spree that totaled dozens of victims is drawn from legal transcripts, correspondence and interviews with detectives and prosecutors. Using these sources, new information on several murders is unveiled.
A REAL Monster
By Gayle on 10-20-14
Great comprehensive account of Ted Bundy and the terrible crimes he committed. It is disheartening to be taken through all the young lives that were ended by this sadistic twat. Of all the people ride the lighting, Bund was perhaps the most deserving. In some ways the story of Bundy is frustrating in the fact someone suspected he was involved in the murders and could have stopped him earlier, but because they failed to act, several more young lives were extinguished.
The Hunt for D. B. Cooper
By: Geoffrey Gray
Narrated by: Geoffrey Gray
That was the note handed to a stewardess by a mild-mannered passenger on a Northwest Orient flight in 1971. It was the start of one of the most astonishing whodunits in the history of American true crime: how one man extorted $200,000 from an airline, then parachuted into the wilds of the Pacific Northwest and into oblivion. D. B. Cooper's case has become the stuff of legend and obsessed and cursed his pursuers with everything from bankruptcy to suicidal despair.
Unsolved mystery with many layers...
By Joel D Offenberg on 10-06-11
There Better Be a Sequel
Overall, this was a really well done book. It does not claim to know who D.B. Cooper is and fairly examines the strongest contenders, but it is left unfinished. I wish the Author would have added a few chapters narrowing down the suspects and finally picking one, even if it is only the Author's opinion. I will add this though, if there is not a sequel, the ending of the book is total bullshit. Also, I will add my opinion, that Joe, Duane's wife, if making her story up. I find it convenient that one: her husband cannot refute anything she says because he's dead; and two: he supposedly told her all of these things about D.B. Cooper which she claimed to know nothing about and didn't make the connection, then suddenly after his alleged confession, she becomes an expert on the case and sees connections everywhere. I personally find the transition suspicious and think it's her way to gain attention.
Great, but Only if You are Ready
I'm not into self help books, but sometimes it is nice to read advise and maybe get some pointers. I picked up this book with that mindset and was pleasantly surprised. It is a nice mental kick in the ass. If you are not into some tough love or willing to accept responsibility for your life, this book will be of no use to you. If you really need a kick in the ass or even just a light tap to get you motivated, read this book.

The Invisible Painter recently carried out a full internal refurbishment and single story extension at a residential property in Kelfield Mews, Notting Hill.
This project took 1 year to complete. Our team were required to create a single story extension to the rear of the property and conduct a full, high-spec internal fit out. As the photos show, the final results were exceptional.
In addition to the full high-spec fit out and rear extension, The Invisible Painter was given the task of raising the height of the roof and digging out the ground floor. These are dirty jobs, but they have made the mews house much more suitable to modern living requirements and the sense of space has improved enormously.
From the outside, its looks remain traditional, which is important as it blends in with the rest of the properties on Kelfield Mews.

Johann Philipp Franz Hyazinth von Kesselstatt (* 18. September 1754 in Trier; † 20. Juni 1828 ebenda) war Domkapitular in Trier und Archidiakon in Karden.

Leben

Herkunft und Familie
Im 13. und 14. Jahrhundert kam die Adelsfamilie von Kesselstatt in den Raum Trier. Sie stammte ursprünglich aus dem hessischen Raum, deren gleichnamiges Stammhaus bei Kesselstadt lag. Aus der Familie sind zahlreiche Persönlichkeiten hervorgegangen, die in Kirche und Staat wichtige Positionen innehatten.
Johann Philipp Franz Hyazinth von Kesselstatt wurde als Sohn des Karl Friedrich Melchior von Kesselstatt (1692–1751) und seiner Gemahlin Maria Isabella Theresia Antoinette Raitz von Frentz geboren. Seine Schwester Klara Luise (1726–1746) war mit Johann Hugo Franz Graf von Metternich-Winneburg verheiratet. Sein Bruder Hugo (1727–1796) war kaiserlicher Landhofmeister und Geheimrat.

Wirken
Im Jahre 1762 wurde Johann Philipp Domherr in Trier und erhielt 1783 die Ernennung zum Domkapitular. Der Trierer Erzbischof Clemens Wenzeslaus übertrug ihm am 24. Oktober 1793 das Archidiakonat Karden. Nach der Besetzung des linken Rheinufers durch die Franzosen wurde Johann am 6. Juli 1795 zum Domdekan in Koblenz-Ehrenbreitstein gewählt. Mit dieser Wahl verzichtete er auf das Archidiakonat Karden.

Fort Worth,
Father shares harrowing story after daughters nearly drown
"It's not like you see in the movies, there was no splashing, no yelling"
The father of two little girls taken to Cook Children's after a non-fatal drowning incident says even when you think you are doing everything right, something terrible can go wrong.
The family, which has requested to remain anonymous, shared their story with Checkup Newsroom in hopes of preventing tragedies to other families.
"It was just a normal day at the pool," said the girls' father.
They were at a community pool on a recent July afternoon. The two girls, ages 5 and 6, had been playing in the water for less than 5 minutes when their brother decided he wanted to get out.
"All three were in my line of site. I watched my son get out of the pool. I took my eyes off the water for a matter of seconds to give him a cookie. When I looked at the pool again, I thought they were still playing."
The father said he thought the girls were playing a game to see who could hold their breath the longest. He wasn't too concerned since both take swim lessons twice a week and spend many hot afternoons in the water. He says he saw one girl jumping up and down, but the other stayed submerged. That's when he jumped in.
"I grabbed her and started screaming for the lifeguards. Then I realized my oldest daughter was in trouble too."
More than a dozen lifeguards rushed to their aid, along with a parent who also happened to be a nurse. Both girls were given CPR while another parent took their brother to get a popsicle so he wouldn't have to see what was going on.
"It happened so fast. The entire episode couldn't have taken more than 15 or 20 seconds," said the girls' father. "It's not like you see in the movies, there was no splashing, no yelling. There were adults right there that didn't even know they were in trouble."
Unfortunately, this is something emergency room physicians and nurses hear all too often at Cook Children's. Already this summer, 24 children have been admitted to the hospital for drowning and two have died. Over and over again, parents say they didn't know their child was in danger because they didn't see or hear anything.
"This is a huge issue in our community, especially in the summertime," said Dana Walraven, community health outreach manager for Cook Children's. "Parents may not realize how quickly children can drown, that's why we teach 'layers of protection.'"
Layers of protection are safety techniques that have proven to be effective ways to prevent drowning.
100% adult supervision while children are in and around water
If you are alone with your child, stay with your child. Get in the water with your child and be in arm's reach.
Swim with U.S. Coast Guard-approved life vests. Don't use floaties filled with air.
Learn to swim at any age.
Learn CPR.
Install a fence on all sides of a backyard pool or spa. Secure the fence with a self-latching gate.
Use alarms that can be put on children's wrists.
Update pool/spa drain covers.
Follow pool rules and signs.
Install door alarms to alert adults when a child is entering the pool area.
The father who shared his story about his daughters says the depth of the pool played a big part in their close call.
He says he believed the pool was two and a half feet of water, but it actually became deeper in areas.
"My youngest daughter is fearless. She swam into the deeper area without me realizing it. Her older sister saw what was happening and was trying to help."
He says if he had known the water became deeper, the girls would have been wearing their life vests.
"I'm one of the lucky ones. I got there in time to get them out. The lifeguards did a great job. I could have easily been planning a funeral right now for two little girls."
Both girls were released from the hospital just one day after the incident. Their father says both are doing great and even had a plan for what they wanted to do once they were able to leave Cook Children's
"When we left the hospital, the girls (as a family) wanted to go to thank the lifeguards for everything they did for us. My youngest response was "after we thank the lifeguards, can we go swimming?"
Lifeguard Your Child
Did you know that Texas is #1 in the nation for child pool drownings, or that drowning is the leading cause of accidental death for children ages 1 to 4? This year, Cook Children's is asking all parents to #LifeguardYourChild around water. For more information about how to protect your children around water, including where to find swim lessons and what to look for when purchasing a life-saving device, visit our drowning prevention website.

Wine makes an excellent pairing for history, don't you think? Discover Budapest old and new through its stylish wine bars, ruin bars, and underground hangouts on this very special private tour. Enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of the city's bar scene in the most eclectic part of Budapest, accompanied of course by the best Hungarian wines and local finger foods.
Get ready to discover the best wine venues and ruin bars in Budapest! Your own private local guide is excited to share their favourite city stories with you, paired alongside some of the best Hungarian wines.
We'll start your evening adventure in the main junction of the city and wander over to the Old Jewish ghetto to discover the coolest local hangouts by night. Beginning with classic spritzers, moving on to easy-going whites, and following those up with dark, full-bodied reds. And of course, Budapest's night scene wouldn't be complete without a traditional Hungarian drink to top it all off!
After your welcome drink and short stroll through the city's streets, we'll head over to the former Jewish quarter to learn the rich history of this neighbourhood, often known as the Soho of Budapest. In line with its late 19th-century elegance and the 21st-century lifestyle, our Budapest walking tour continues to a local wine-lovers hangout with a cool cellar ambiance. Over a glass of white, we'll explore the importance of wine to local Hungarian culture.
Our final stop will be at a place you couldn't find on your own — off the beaten track, this locals' favorite venue serves the best variety of reds in the city. We wouldn't let you miss out on this hidden gem! After your private tour, you may want to stick around the neighbourhood for another drink and a late-night bite. Be sure to ask your local guide what other watering holes make them happy!


How many nickels are in 54 dollars?
Here, we will show you how to calculate how many nickels there are in 54 dollars.
First, calculate how many cents there are in 54 dollars by multiplying 54 by 100, and then divide that result by 5 cents to get the answer.
Note: We multiplied 54 by 100, because there are 100 cents in a dollar, and we divided 5,400 by 5, because there are 5 cents in a nickel.

Wellzesta's Director of Sales, Mark Lenox and Evangeline Wilds, Client Success Specialist at the LeadingAge GA/SC Annual Conference.
Technology is defining the future of senior living. Tech was discussed in multiple sessions on innovations like big data, smart gadgets, and interactive booths, like Wellzesta's, at the trade show. Many who stopped by our booth mentioned that "going digital" was a priority for their communities as they looked to the future.
Wellness programming is essential. Rather than viewing wellness as an "add-on," communities are now viewing it as integral in their residents' daily lives. Wellness programming will not only boost sales, but it will help current residents remain healthier longer - and help them achieve their potential as well.
Wellness is for everyone. It can be a part of daily life for residents from Independent Living all the way to Memory Care. However, it is crucial to understand the way that residents learn in various cognitive states in order to effectively help them participate and find purpose in wellness programming.
Cyber-security is a concern. As hackers find new ways to infiltrate databases, it's more important than ever that staff stay alert to threats and communities ensure that networks are secure and data is protected. Privacy has always been a top priority for Wellzesta, and it is for our partners, too.
Relationships are crucial. Seems obvious, but as I met so many passionate people who are committed to providing the best for their residents, I was reminded of the power of personal connections in the lives of those we serve.
We had a great conference - thanks to all who attended and shared your stories with us. I look forward to connecting again!

It is important that you have appropriate restrictive covenants in your contracts so that when staff leave the organisation your business interests are protected.
Types of restrictive covenants
A restrictive covenant could prevent the employee for a certain time from going to work for a competitor or setting up in competition. Other restrictive covenants might prevent the employee from trying to solicit (poach) clients or staff for a certain period – or deal with clients, whether the employee poaches them or not.
The general rule is that a restrictive covenant is only enforceable if it goes no further than necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the business. Whether the clause is enforceable will depend on the circumstances. Factors which might be relevant could include the type of business involved, the seniority of the individual concerned, their access to clients and confidential information and the length of the restriction.
The important thing to remember is that the employer cannot rely on a restrictive covenant if a less onerous one would have adequately protected its business interests. Let's take for example a restriction preventing the employee for 6 months from poaching customers who they were involved with in their last year. It may sufficiently protect a company selling widgets if within those 6 months the company has had enough time to secure the client relationships through a new salesperson. In those circumstances, an additional restriction prohibiting the employee from joining a competitor is likely to be unenforceable because it would go beyond what was required.
There will be some situations though when a non- competing restrictive covenant might be justified – say because of the difficulty in policing a non-poaching restriction. It may be necessary if the employee is very senior and has had access to highly confidential information. It could be argued that merely being at a competitor would damage their former employer, and that the former employer's clients will follow the departing employee to their new company irrespective of other restrictions.
Think carefully about the seniority of the employee involved, what you need to protect, geographical scope and the industry norms.
Make sure that the duration of the restrictive covenant is no longer than necessary because the Courts are not able to substitute the length for a shorter period.
It's often appropriate to reduce the length of the restriction by the period of any garden leave as the employee would usually be away from the business during that time.
Regularly review the appropriateness of the restrictions and individual circumstances. An employee may start in a junior role without the need for restrictions. Later, however, they could be promoted into a senior role. You couldn't then unilaterally impose restrictions but an employee could, for instance, be required to agree to them, as part of a pay increase or bonus award.
Define all terms.
When it comes to drafting restrictive covenants it's always best to seek legal advice.

What Is WhatsApp? Here's Everything about WhatsApp You Need To Know
By OnlineNews Sunday, May 31, 2020 Comment Edit
WhatsApp is a text and voice messaging application that was launched in 2009. It has become incredibly popular ever since, largely thanks to its features and flexibility. As a free service, WhatsApp allows messages and calls on desktop and mobile devices.
Part of what makes this app attractive is that it works on various phone and computer operating systems, which helps with messaging. You can also take advantage of Wi-Fi and mobile data to make individual or group calls.
Here is everything you need to know about WhatsApp.
How does WhatsApp work?
WhatsApp relies on data to send messages, like iMessage or BBM, so it doesn't interrupt your monthly text allocation.
Global reach vs competition
WhatsApp says it serves more than 2 billion people in more than 180 countries, with more than 500 million daily active users. WhatsApp Messenger is now the leading mobile messaging application in 112 countries, while Messenger is the leading application in 57 countries. The app dominates in India, Germany, Russia, and the UK. Despite its considerable virtues and impressive statistics, WhatsApp is not the only game in town. Competitors for the app include Line, Imo, Kakao Talk, WeChat, Kik, and Viber Messenger. WhatsApp generally takes a broad approach to reach as many people as possible around the world. According to a Market Intelligence Insights report, WhatsApp is gaining popularity compared to its competitors, even outperforming its own Facebook brother Messenger.

Figures gathered by eMarketer predicted that 52% of the US Hispanic population. USA He would use WhatsApp by the end of 2019, and he estimates that the platform's Hispanic user base has expanded to 32 million in recent years, driven by its financial advantages and wide acceptance. in Latin America. eMarketer predicts that growth within this population will continue until 2023, when 47 million Hispanic Americans or 70.7% of that population will be on the WhatsApp platform.
Easy Chat and Calls on Most Platforms
WhatsApp is platform independent. You don't need to have the same brand of phone as the call recipient or be on a specific platform - the app works with iPhone, Android, and Windows phones, and Mac or Windows desktops or laptops, which you can use to send and send receive messages, but don't make calls. Like any other SMS messenger, you can start a conversation with an individual or a group and a video chat with up to four people. The iOS version also has in-app support for playing videos from Instagram and Facebook. You can also share your location, transmit your status to your contacts, share contacts, set custom wallpapers and notification alerts, email chat history, use the camera to take photos and videos from the app, and simultaneously transmit messages to multiple contacts. You're always online so you never miss messages, but even if you lose notifications while your phone is off, the app saves recent messages for when you reopen the app.
Like iMessage for iPhone, WhatsApp has a simple interface that displays your chats in text bubbles with a time stamp and notifies you when the recipient has seen your text.
WhatsApp can identify the people in your contact list who are currently using the app, so you never have to add them manually. You can also invite people who do not have WhatsApp or who do not connect with other users you know but who are not in your contact list. WhatsApp allows you to create work groups, friends or family to communicate with up to 256 participants. The application allows you to change your background and send your GPS location to an interactive map. You can write a status message that will last up to 24 hours or until you change it. You can block contacts from the application or send the information of a friend to another user within the application.
The application has a search function that allows you to search by keyword, group, contact name or phone number. You can also search for keywords in a conversation. WhatsApp is interoperable with Google so you can save a copy of your message history on Google Drive or, if you're not on Google, in your phone's memory. If you lose critical messages, you can re-download and reinstall the application to find your lost messages.
WhatsApp uses the cellular or Wi-Fi connection of your phone to facilitate messaging and voice calls to almost anyone on the planet, alone or in a group, and is especially good for families and small collaborative work groups. The application allows you to make calls and send and receive messages, documents, photos and videos. WhatsApp is completely free, without fees or subscriptions, because it uses the 4G, 3G, 2G, EDGE or Wi-Fi connection of your phone instead of the voice minutes or the text plan of your cell plan. If you are connected via Wi-Fi, it will not affect your data plan either. Its popularity is sustained by its support for free calls around the world, even if the people who chat are not in the same country.
Mobile updates for 2020
After 2018, WhatsApp has not introduced new core features, but continues to modify and improve existing features. More recently, WhatsApp instituted a new privacy setting that gives you more control over group messages, particularly who can add it to groups. Administrators can send you a private invitation through Settings> Account> Privacy> Groups. There are three options available: All, My Contacts, and My Contacts, except. My Contacts is restricted to the people you have in your address book who can add it to groups and My Contacts except it offers even more control over which contacts can add it to a group. Administrators who cannot add you to a group can send a private message via chat to invite you to a group. The invitation expires in three days.

New call waiting features allow you to choose to accept an incoming WhatsApp call while you are on another call. Chats screen layout has been updated to make it easier to read your messages and you can send messages directly from the Braille keyboard through VoiceOver mode.
WhatsApp has a number of advanced security features. It has end-to-end encryption, just like Apple's iMessage and Signal. All messages that flow through the platform are secured so that only the sender and recipient can see them. This means that WhatsApp was unable to read your message, even if you wanted to. The application does not store your personal information, and only the people you approve as contacts can send you messages. As with an increasing number of Internet services like Google and Facebook, WhatsApp uses two-factor authentication, which allows you to enter a second access code sent to your phone by text message to access your account. However, group messages may conflict with some privacy settings, as if you have blocked someone, they may still appear in a group message that you can see.
web.whatsapp.com
WhatsApp Web is a desktop version of the mobile application that works within standard Mac or Windows browsers (except Internet Explorer). But it does not offer all the services available in the mobile application. Everything you do on the web will sync and appear on the iPhone or Android app, so all your chats will sync, but the web version doesn't offer calling features. A commercial version allows companies to access WhatsApp to interact with customers.
Disadvantages of WhatsApp
WhatsApp doesn't have many downsides from a user perspective, but there are a few. First, you can only communicate with people who have the app, so it can be a bit tricky for friends and family to download and learn another app, especially when they feel like they can text you right now without it. Although the calls are free, it is also possible to accumulate data charges, so users should proceed with caution. Also, with WhatsApp, you cannot call 911 or other emergency services.

Diane McNally SD61 Greater Victoria School Trustee: Democratically Elected
Copyright Diane Mcnally 2011-2017
April 2/13: Education Policy Development Committee: The Record Off The Record: Student Counselling, Not Therapy
The Record Off The Record is my own personal record of and commentary on public meetings in School District 61 (Esquimalt, Oak Bay, Victoria, View Royal and a portion of Saanich and Highlands ). "Official" approved minutes of Board and Standing Committee meetings are posted on the SD61 website under the "Board of Education" menu, generally one month after the meeting. The meeting schedule is posted on the District Calendar. Trustees are referred to by last name only for brevity; "the Board of Education of SD No. 61 (Greater Victoria) is referred to as "the Board [etc]". No audio recordings are made of Standing Committee meetings, only of Board meetings. (No record of how the audio recording decision was made, or any debate on proposed uses of and storage of the record appears to exist.) Unless attributed, comments are my own.
No In Camera meeting before this public meeting. Education Policy meetings are generally held at schools in SD61 but although the agenda specifies "Cedar Hill Middle School" as venue, this meeting was held at the Tolmie Building.

7. General Announcements: None.
8. New Business:
A. Counselling Services: (Info) Presentation by Debra Mackie, District Principal of Special Education; Deborah Courville, Associate Superintendent; Nella Nelson, Aboriginal Nations Education; Dick Brown, District Counsellor (Regulation 2127.0630: District Counsellors, last reviewed 1979, which accounts for the quaint language in Article 5: "The above regulations are made in recognition of the fact that the principal is in charge of his school…).
Some relevant SD61 links: District Aboriginal Counsellor Policy, District Aboriginal Counsellor Regulation (1999); Regulation Elementary School Counsellors K-7 (1994) [SD61 moved to a middle school model with the last school reconfigured from K-7 in 2007. SD61 has no K-7 schools]; Director of Student Support Services Policy (1991); Policy on Student Suspensions (1993).
Special Education Services in SD61 includes this description of Counselling Services: "School counsellors provide a continuum of preventative, developmental, remedial, and intervention services and programs and facilitate referral to community resources. The school counsellor's role includes counselling [though the presentation stressed "not therapy"; for that, a student is referred to an outside agency] , school-based consultation, co-ordination and education. School counselling functions include individual, group and class work to provide both an intervention and a prevention service. The focus of school counselling is enhancing the students' development, assisting with the development of an enabling school culture and empowering students toward positive change. The counsellor:
Promotes personal and social development appropriate to developmental stages
Counsels students, their families and the community to foster growth in the students' self esteem, individual responsibility, and in skills such as decision making and social skills
Ameliorates factors which may precipitate problems for students
Enhances students' educational achievement through goal setting, assisting with the development of IEP's and activities such as promotion of effective work and study habits
Provides appropriate interventions to assist students with school related problems and issues
Facilitates the goals of career education by assisting students and their families to explore and clarify the student's career options, through developmental activities that stress decision-making, personal planning and career awareness."
Some relevant Provincial level links: BC School Counsellors Association; Ministry of Education resources for counsellors and others; When Words are Not Enough: Threat Assessment for School Counsellors; September 8, 2011 Tyee article "At School, More Stressed Kids, Fewer Counsellors"; Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, Issue #10 July 14, 2010,Patrice A. Keats and Daniel Laitsch, Simon Fraser University (excerpt below):
.Keats and Laitsch in CJEAP: Contemplating Regulation of Counsellors in Canadian Schools: Current issues and Concerns [specific focus on BC schools]: "Thus, because there are no legislated qualifications for counsellors in general or school counsellors specifically, enforcement of these standards is voluntary. This is a particular concern around the master's degree in a related discipline where there may not have been any supervised counselling practicum….Since BC school counsellors are not required to be a member of any counselling organization or association, the British Columbia College of Teachers (BCCT) stands as the only regulating body in which teacher counsellors are members." [BCCT is now the Teacher Regulation Branch.]
Debra Mackie, District Principal, Special Education and Principal, Victor School (a segregated school for students with special needs):
SD61 has 9 counsellors (7.6 FTE / full time equivalent; some are part time); school counsellors are "particularly connected" with elementary schools.
All SD61 school counsellors have Master's degrees [at time of posting, no information as to which degrees are held; a "related discipline" degree is allowed, not necessarily a degree in Counselling Psychology. The Ministry of Education website does not clarify which "related disciplines" qualify].
In elementary schools counsellors are itinerant. At a school of 300 students or fewer, the assignment is one day a week (.2 FTE) They work with entire classes and are part of School Based Teams [From SD39 Vancouver School District Special Education Glossary: "A School Based Team is an ongoing team of school based personnel which has a form role to play as a problem solving unit in assisting classroom teachers to develop and implement instructional or management strategies and to coordinate support resources for students with special need within the school" (Ministry of Education – July 06). The School Based Team can be different, depending on staff and school needs. Usually an administrator, a counsellor, or specialist teachers make up part of the team which can include many different personnel].
[Campus View School Based Team, as an example: The Learning Assistance teacher coordinates the school-based team consisting of the principal, the vice- principal, the school counselor, the Learning Assistance teacher, a Student Assistant representative, outside support staff (when students in their case load are discussed) and classroom teachers (when students in their classes are discussed). The School Based Team meets twice monthly to brainstorm ideas and formulate action plans to deal with emotional behavior, academic and social concerns. Progress of special needs students is monitored throughout the year. A student can be referred for discussion by any member of the staff.]
School counsellors work to address social, emotional and behaviour needs, coordinate community services [among them, community resources which must be in place for a student to receive funding and support attached to a designation of "intensive behaviour intervention" – there are 29 forms on the district internal web page in regard to Intensive Behaviour Intervention – or "students with a severe mental illness"]
Work in elementary and middle school classrooms delivering programs on bullying and social development
In secondary schools (9-12), provide career counselling and support transitions to and from secondary school, as well as interventions related to addictions, grief, loss, depression, self-harm.
Counsellor time is set at a ratio per student, determined using estimated student enrolment with additional information from the school principal in regard to the needs of the school. Student population 300 or less = .2 FTE = 1 day, with the District allocation of time rising with increments in student population.
Some schools see a need to use some of their school budget money to top up counsellor time.
Some schools have the services of a Youth and Family Counsellor (generally graduates of a four year degree program in Youth and Child Care), paid from Community Link funding (which can also be used to buy Education Assistant time, or additional teacher time).
Deborah Courville (former school counsellor), Associate Superintendent:
YFCs in SD61 are contracted for service by Community Link through Fairfield Gonzales Community Associationand the Burnside Gorge Community Association
Community Link provides 3 YFCs who support a group of schools.
YFCs provide non curriculum related service, non teaching; often work with whole families, and are not "bound" to the school environment as school counsellors are.
Dick Brown, District Counsellor:
Among responsibilities is conduct suspension hearings, which are significantly down, likely due to early intervention.
Nella Nelson, Coordinator, Aboriginal Nations Education Department:
Twelve schools K-12 have service from Aboriginal Counsellors; four of the six have Master's degrees or are registered in a Master's program
Aboriginal school counsellors are paid from Community Link funding and targeted Aboriginal Education funding One day per week equivalent is reserved for emergent referrals.
The Friendship Centre provides a 1.0 FTE (full time equivalent) Education Liaison position for time in schools with provision of links to Friendship Centre Services, links to Surrounded By Cedar services, and Metis Community Services.
Orcherton: What about a student who has a serious issue if the counsellor is not there? There is a team on site, correct?
Horsman: Is the counsellor the first responder?
Good questions. The District provides a School Emergency and Critical Incident Response guide available for schools, apparently, from the searchable url, through Human Resources, though no link is on the minimal SD61 Human Resources Department page. School District 61 has formed a Crisis Intervention Team made up of two principals, and a number of school counsellors.
Debra Mackie: Behaviour plans are in place for students who are identified as "low incidence", including Level 3 "serious mental illness" and "intensive behaviour support". The School Based Team core members are the principal, vice principal and the counsellor.
[Safety plans deal with, among other things, who will respond on school grounds (teacher? principal? vice principal? education assistant? ), a list of behaviours to watch for in terms of escalation. and possible responses including "reactive plan", "interim strategies", protocol for restraint if a last resort, procedures for exiting other students from the vicinity, what to do if bitten, etc. Obviously, at a school, anyone who can respond and who is part of the safety / behaviour plan is teaching, possibly providing support to other students (as Ministry-funded Education Assistant support for students with intensive behaviour is not full time) or involved in administrative duties and needs to be called away to deal with the emergency.]
B. Revision to Regulation 5140.1 Child Abuse and Regulation 5140.2 Child Abuse and School District Employees: (Info: attached to agenda at end) Janine Roy, District principal of Learning Initiatives
The District Leadership Team reviews Regulations [not Policy, though DLT does review Policy through an "informal agreement" and presents revisions to the Board for approval, a process that has been going on for some time. this review was to include only "housekeeping" changes and simple non-substantive updates to Policy. On occasion one might think the revisions are more than "housekeeping". The BC School Trustees Association recognizes Policy development and review as a key part of Trustees' duties: "Trustees also assess periodically their district'€™s compliance with the policies and goals they put in place, thus monitoring district performance." Currently an Ad Hoc Committee is reviewing Bylaw 9360, General Meeting of the Board,and will make recommendations to the Board. The motion to establish this Committee specifically excluded Trustees].
First on the agenda at the Education Policy Development Meeting, December 3, 2012, the revision was sent back by the Board for further revision, as some problems were identified.
Reported consulting with stakeholder groups during this revision (Aboriginal staeholders, a parent, CUPE, Greater Victoria Teachers' Association) .
Revision takes into account March 13, 2013 updated Child, Family and Community Service Act and the BC Handbook for Action on Child Abuse and Neglect.
Presented for information only, which was surprising, as extensive discussion took place amongst trustees last time this revision was presented.
BC Handbook for Action on Child Abuse and Neglect
C. Regulation 6145.02 Supervision Requirements for Secondary School and Middle School Extra-curricular Athletics: (Info; attached at end of agenda) Sherri Bell, Deputy Superintendent:
Met with CUPE 947. The Regulation as previously written excluded CUPE and Allied Specialists from being considered a "responsible employee" for overnight volunteer trip supervision with students; only teachers were mentioned. As specified in the Regulation, the school principal has the ultimate responsibility for the situation.
Other applicable Policies: Field Trips , Attachments for Field Trip Regulation , Overnight Accommodation Policy , Overnight Accommodation Regulation .
"New Business" was 8 this time, and last time 9 was "Superintendent's Report ". Not this time. This time 9 is "Adjournment".

Anything still worth seeing out Renfrew way ?
Renfrew, Braehead, industrial areas, up to the Clyde. I don't know the area that well, but the shots on Google look interesting. Scrappies, old yards, and the like. Anything still worth seeing/exploring ? Or has the redevelopment swept it all away ?
all the old scrapyards down towards the river have all but gone.
Have you seen the India of Inchinnan factory. It is an Art Deco masterpiece. Wells Coates(of Perivale Hoover factory fame)had a hand in it.

I live in the exact area of the old airport but I don't know the old layout of it, if someone could help I would get pics no bother.

You'd have to do it under the cover of darkness with no reflective clothing though... Still up for it?
Why would I not be up for it? We are talking about the old Renfrew airport not the current Glasgow one are we not? There is a Tesco on or near the site now, hardly scary!
True the Tescos isn't very scary........However what was once the main runway at Renfrew Airport is now that long, totally straight, stretch of the M8 motorway just before the first Paisley exit if you are heading west.
If you want to go stand in the middle of that and take pictures I'll come and watch!
What about the area around Christies Scrappy - is that still there or has it been redeveloped?
Speaking of old airports...wasn't an old cemetery practically built over to make Glagsgow Airport's new runway? It was full of very old headstones, some of which were (I think) Knights Templars. Most of the headstones themselves were moved somewhere else but apparently there is still something to see in the vicinity. Of course you need special permission to go and have a look, or else you will get a helluva fright from the planes.
The above information was gleaned from searches on the internet a while ago and is now a part of my foggy memory, but I am almost sure the cemetery was Inchinnan (old church was there too). I was researching it because my ggg grandmother was born there.
