The Heysen Trail
Re-Routes on the Heysen Trail
Map 2: Kuitpo Forest to Tanunda (Sept 2014)
Re-Routes of the Heysen Trail
Occassionally, due to weather or maintenance issues, it is necessary to realign sections of the Heysen Trail. Minor reroutes, necessitated by such things as sand blowouts in coastal areas, protection of native vegetation, erosion control, or requests from landholders, are also frequently carried out.
Logging operations in forests can sometimes necessitate the rerouting of the Trail. These reroutes often have to be done at short notice, and it is important to follow these reroutes, as it is dangerous to walk in areas where logging operations are in progress.
1. Re-route at Knott Hill Reserve (Kuitpo Forest), September 2021
This is a temporary re-route
View pdf map showing re-route
Forestry SA advise that logging operations in the Knott Hill Forest Reserve will impact on the Heysen Trail and The Onkeeta Trail. The Onkeeta Trail is completely closed.
The Heysen Trail has been rerouted to pass along the eastern edge of the plantation, using some of the southern sections of the Onkeeta Trail and the eastern sections of the Willunga Basin Trail. Look for reroute markings on these trail posts.
Forestry SA anticipate that logging operations will be complete by the end of October 2021.

2. Trail closure caused by the Cudlee Creek bushfire, June 2020
This reroute/closure has been removed – the trail through to Cudlee Creek was reopened in April 2021. However Grandpa's camp remains closed.
Forestry SA has closed access to the Heysen Trail in the vicinity of Cudlee Creek, with the affected section shown on this exclusion zone map.
It covers sections of the following maps:
Heysen Trail Sheet Maps 2B & 2C and
Southern Guidebook Map 3.6.
The exclusion zone commences at the eastern exit of Montacute Conservation Park (Grid Ref 983 377) and concludes when the trail leaves Forestry property at Snake Gully Rd (GR 014 402).
All walkers are advised to avoid the area. Trail closure signs have been erected by Forestry SA.
Unfortunately the excluded area included Grandpa's campsite. The campsite has been reopened however the rainwater tank is contaminated with ash. Until it is replaced, the water is not fit for consumption.
3. High Water Crossing Alternate Route entering Morialta Conservation Park, February 2021
When entering Morialta Conservation Park from Norton Summit:
when the creek water level us low, there is a 140m long low water crossing, and
when the creek water levels are high there is a 1.6km long high water crossing alternate route along Colonial Drive and Colonial Track
4. Temporary Re-Route Around Sampson Flat Fireground, July 2015, Updated August 2017, Suspended 2021
Updated 29 Aug 2017: the temporary re-route has been removed, the trail has been restored to its original alignment, with a small re-route crossing North East Road. The Aug 2017 re-route has been suspended, please refer to the 2021 temporary re-route.
Following the January 2015 Sampson Flat Bushfire the Heysen Trail has been re-marked through the fireground, from Nugget Road to near Kersbrook. A temporary re-route is in place from Chain of Ponds to Kersbook.
5. Reroute of the Heysen Trail near Chain of Ponds and Sampson Flat fireground, August 2017, Suspended 2021
This re-route has been suspended, please refer to the 2021 temporary re-route. During the restoration of the Heysen Trail to the pre-Sampson Flat fireground route, the trail has been improved and re-routed where it crosses North East Road at Chain of Ponds.
6. Reroute of the Heysen Trail near Chain of Ponds where it crosses North East Road, Early 2021
This re-route was marked in early 2021 to allow for a roadwork upgrade of the junction of North East Road and South Para Road.
It was expected to be a temporary change until the roadworks were completed in June 2021.
The route shown in purple is the Heysen Trail in Chain of Ponds crossing North East Road.
UPDATE December 2021. Due to land access issues related to SA Water property, the trail has not returned to the original route. Further options are being investigated.
CAUTION: The re-routed trail now crosses North East Rd about 50 metres from the crest of a hill which makes for a dangerous road crossing. This is a dangerous crossing as the speed limit on the Chain of Ponds Rd is 100 km/h.
Please be extra cautious when crossing the road.
7. Reroutes in Mt Crawford forest, August 2020
The Heysen Trail has been re-routed in Mt Crawford forest in three places:
The main trail (which is the route along the southern then eastern side) has been re-routed off of Chalks Road
The alternative trail (which is the route along the north-western side) has been re-routed via Warren Reservoir to Centennial Drive
When the South Para River water level is high, avoid the main trail crossing (marked #3, upstream to the east) and walk 900m downstream to cross the river on the Mount Rd bridge (marked #4, downstream to the west)
8. Re-Route returning the trail to Tower Hill, avoid closed Freemans Hut, and Re-Route near Mt Crawford Summit, April 2016 (updated May 2018, updated November 2021)
Freemans Hut on the Heysen Trail near Mt Crawford has been closed due to a land sale, and the trail re-routed to continue north along the Wirra Wirra Peaks ridge line.
[update May 2018] The trail has been re-routed away from Tower Road, to the east to follow Wirra Wirra Road to the north to meet Corryton Road.
[update November 2021] Following successful negotiations with landholders in the area, the Heysen Trail has returned to the route initially adopted in 2016 following the closure of the trail to Freemans Hut.
After the descent from the Wirra Wirra peaks, the trail again follows Tower Road in a northerly direction for a kilometre. It then crosses a fence into private property. The trail follows the fenceline for another kilometre before reaching the summit of Tower Hill, which affords spectacular views in all directions.
The trail continues along the fenceline until reaching the Ross Fire Track where it turns in an easterly direction along an unmade road reserve. This section of the trail continues until it leaves the road reserve at the junction of Wirra Wirra, Trial Hill and Corryton Park Roads.
[update May 2018] The Heysen Trail climbs over the summit of Mt Crawford. There is now a river crossing on stepping stones near the base of the summit. When river water levels are high, use the route west over the road bridge.

Billy McNeill took over from Jock Stein as manager of Celtic on 29th May 1978 and immediately embarked on a pretty successful period in the post. Under his control, Celtic won the League title in 1978/79, 1980/81 and 1981/82; the Scottish Cup was picked up in 1980 and the League Cup in 1982/83.
It was an interesting and curious time in Scottish football, as while Rangers were still picking up trophies – they had won the league in season 1977/78, just before Billy had arrived, the Scottish Cup in 1979 and 1981 plus the League Cup in 1978/79 and 81/82 – there was now the 'New Firm' for the Old Firm managers to cope with. Under Alex Ferguson and Jim Mclean, both Aberdeen and Dundee United became very difficult opponents, never afraid of the visits to Glasgow which had bedevilled previous sides from these areas.
Unfortunately for Billy, his successes on the pitch were slightly overshadowed – on a personal level – by some problems behind the scenes. He quite openly admits to having a difficult relationship with Chairman Desmond White, the obvious difference in age compounded by White's reluctance, at least in Billy's eyes, to provide the money to spend on new players. Apparently, this had been a continual problem during the five years of Billy's tenure but by the end of season 1982/83, he had had enough.
On this day in 1983, Billy McNeill headed south to take over as manager of Manchester City.

Don't multitask (for goodness' sake). It's amazing – the powers of applying your entire brain to the task at hand. So, don't have your phone in sight just in case you miss a text. Hide it or switch it to airplane mode for the time being. Don't have other windows open if you're using a computer or tablet to study. Conjure up that (old-fashioned?) image of the solitary student bent over a book in a quiet library – that method really works. You owe it to yourself to concentrate when you're studying for important tests.
Take occasional breaks. Give yourself a short rest at least every couple hours if you're in a marathon study session. Stretch and take brief walks in the sunshine, if possible; perhaps take a lap around the building. At the very least, physically move away from your desk for a bit.
Listen to New Age music. As a student, I've always preferred Classical as background when getting down to business; but recently, I've realized New Age – the kind of soothing music one hears at a spa while getting a massage – also can be excellent music for concentration. Personally, I find it most efficient to check out CDs from the library's New Age section. I grab what looks interesting, and later usually discover I don't like some of the albums, but I find others excellent for calming the anxious mind.
Stay grateful. Keep in mind if you're studying for finals, you're in a group of lucky people enjoying the opportunity to earn an education. So even if the going seems rough at times, remember you're partaking in a precious gift.
Good luck! –And for more Finals goodies, including study tips, click "exams" on this blog's word cloud . . .
Just in Time for Finals: Terrific Test-Taking Tips!
So I pass this along as something you certainly may practice on your own: next time you have a test (and with end-of-semester looming, that's likely to be soon), try it. Write your own little set of test questions, and better yet, form a study group where several of you write homemade tests on your own, and then share, taking turns answering the questions. (Do be aware the questions themselves might need clarifying and revising, as the article discusses).
In the process of writing tests for yourself, you're forced to go back through your class notes and materials, and are likely to hit upon many of the major concepts you need to know. Then, after you've taken a number of college-level tests and exams, you're likely to get better at anticipating test questions, and will find this activity even more effective.
Good luck and happy studying!

My character sets the tone for who Death is/has become. She helps the audience to fully understand and embrace the Death character. She has been friends with Death since the beginning of time, and as much as they disagree with each other they need each other to survive.
Playing "Life" as such ... how do you even prepare for such a role, and what did you draw upon to bring your character to life?
I really focused on the playful relationship that my character Life had with the character Death (played wonderfully by Mike Sciabarrasi [Michael Sciabarrasi interview - click here]). I built the character from that point and really just had fun with it. Mike played the character so brilliantly - it was a lot of fun working opposite him!
I had heard so many great things about the director Adam Steigert's first film Ombis (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2224383/) [Adam Steigert interview - click here], so I added him on Facebook and stalked his every move. True story. Luckily for me he was familiar with my work so when he was casting next he reached out to me and I quickly accepted the role!
What can you tell us about your director Adam R. Steigert, and what was your collaboration like?
Besides that I stalked him to get hired? Lets see, he's got these wonderful ideas and is such a hard worker. Hes very passionate about his projects, and very connected to those that he works with. He's definitely smarter than the average bear and really understands all aspects of the film making process. Working with Adam was great - he allows actors to really find there character and then adjusts as necessary.
I actually love the humor in the film, its very dark which is similar to my own. It's that humor that effects you on multiple levels, really intelligent and witty. I know my horror fans are really going to appreciate it!
Yes please! My directorial debut Truth or Dare has started its festival run and is getting a great reaction from audiences. It's a graphic, violent torture film :) I act in it too! I am so honored to have won BEST FEATURE FILM at the Arizona Underground Film Festival. I am looking forward to more screenings!
Just that you are awesome! THANK YOU so very much for all your continued support!


Is astronomy.fm also available over the internet?
Right in the middle is the LISTEN LIVE option.
Cool! That's firm evidence that they liked what you did and do!
Re: Astronomy(space pirate style lol!)Radio an update !
Well I've now got my foot in the Door as I'm Co-presenting on 2 shows. Nearly every friday night at 1am UT, I'm on The Event Horizion and once a month on the 3rd Sunday of the month I'm on Under British Skies ..... so would love to have my friends from here taking part in chat or even on the Event Horizon show!


Often, community is the best medicine.
The traditional treatment for depression—medication and talking to a professional therapist—can be incredibly helpful. But it's missing a vital component: community and connection. Depression isolates, and convinces the person suffering that he's alone in his struggle. Every year, over 35,000 men succumb to the despair and loneliness, and die by suicide.
Face It support groups help to break down this illusion of aloneness. In an informal setting that feels more like a hangout than therapy, men receive support from guys who truly understand what they're going through. Not because they have a Master's degree in social work or PhD in psychology but because they've experienced depression first hand. They've endured the sleepless nights and waking-nightmare days. They've been there.
Many men start attending a group unsure if they're even suffering from depression—they only know that they feel terrible. Through hearing others' stories and sharing their own, new group members learn to identify their feelings. They hear what's helped the other guys feel better and move forward. For men who have overcome depression, group offers a chance to support men who are still struggling, and to solidify their own recovery.
Groups are always free—there's no health insurance to navigate or copays to cough up. Our generous donors and community partners make this possible.
Do you or a loved one want to join a Face It support group? We host several groups that meet every other week. Call us at (651) 200-4297, and we'll find a spot for you. For more free depression resources, visit Connector Plus.


As a Christmas gift LHFC are raffling an Everton ball signed by the 17/18 Team, which was donated to Liverpool Homeless Football Club by Everton FC in April 2018. As an organisation we reached out to Everton FC this year asking for a donation to raise money for Liverpool Homeless Football Club. With the demand for help this winter increasing we thought it would be the perfect time to conduct a raffle with all proceeds going to the homeless and less fortunate in Liverpool this Christmas.
All tickets will be 50P each.
With a SPECIAL OFFER of 15 tickets for only £5.00.
The Raffle will be drawn on Wednesday 14th November at the Christmas Market stall and the ball will be sent out before Christmas with the letter of authenticity from Everton Football Club.
Many thanks to the club for donating the signed ball and also many thanks in advance for all who support this great cause.

About Association for India's Development
Association for India's Development is a volunteer movement promoting sustainable, equitable and just development. AID supports grassroots organizations in India and initiates efforts in various interconnected spheres such as education, livelihoods, natural resources including land, water and energy, agriculture, health, women's empowerment and social justice.
AID is effective
AID's holistic vision enables it to address underlying causes rather than just responding to symptoms, by using powerful tools for bringing out change, such as campaigning against corrupton, in addition to constructive and creative work through various projects.
To give an example, AID has supported alternate energy projects such as solar, wind, micro-hydro and pedal power to light up homes and schools in remote tribal villages. Typically it costs AID about $100-$200 to bring electricity to an unelectrified household through such project work. Thus to create infrastructure and bring lights to 1000 households, it takes $150,000 or so.
On the other hand in Srikakulam district villages at a cost of only about $3000, nearly a 1000 households got electricity via AID, after people fought the Rs 1000-2000 bribes that officials in the electricity department were taking per connection. A day wage labourers earning Rs 60-80 per day can pay their monthly electricity bill, but not bribes to get the initial connection, and this was the bottle neck that AID understood, fought and got rid off. Thus while alternate energy projects are needed for tribal villages where there is no grid, fighting corruption is cost effective and addresses the causes behind lack of access to electricity, in villages in the plains where there is grid infrastructure.
By realizing that nearly 50% of school going children, even in the 5th grade, are not able to read, starting with Tamil Nadu and expanding to other states, AID is improving reading skills of children in tens of thousands of schools by creating interesting reading material, working with government schools by providing training to teachers and creating libraries as well as enabling group learning of children from one another through creative activities.
Through out the AID site you will find a deeper understanding of issues, courage to face injustice and commitment for change through projects and campaigns, an approach that causes large scale transformation, due to its sheer efficiency. Your support as donors and involvement as volunteers goes a much longer distnce the AID way.

Goliath...6 cubits or 4 cubits?
If the average man of Israel was about 5'.4", then you would expect some of the much taller than average would be in the low 6' range. Saul being taller from his shoulders (not head) than the tallest of the tall would have been likely 7' – 7.5' tall. He was THE giant of Israel. Still with Goliath being close to 9 ½' tall compared to Goliath, Saul would have been a shrimp and knew better than to take on a giant greater than 6 cubits (Saul not having the faith of David).
If we go by a 4 cubit Goliath, this would put him around 6.6' at best. He would definitely been shorter than Saul.
Now, if Goliath was 4 cubits, than Saul would not likely have exceeded 3 cubits and since Saul was taller at the shoulder(1st Samuel 9:2) than any other Israelite, the "tall" Israelites would have been 2.5 cubits with the average Israelite at 2 cubits which is around 3 feet tall. NOT!
But there is more… 1 Samuel 17 gives the weight of the armor of Goliath which would have been about 200lbs(90kgs), not counting the spear whose iron tip would have been around 15 lbs or 7kgs. Add to this the rod of Goliath's spear being as a weaver's beam and there is no way a 4 cubit man would be able to fight in battle under this weight. For a 6 cubit and a span warrior, this would be no problem.
You will notice that no knowledge of Greek is needed to deal with this issue.
Such ridiculous scholarship of the ESV casts doubt on their ability to deal with any important issue honestly.

Production Planning and Inventory Control system is used to manage the manufacturing processes. Most MRP systems are software-based, while it is possible to conduct MRP by hand as well. An MRP system is intended to simultaneously meet three objectives: 1) Ensure materials are available for production and products are available for delivery to customers. 2) Maintain the lowest possible level of inventory. 3) Plan manufacturing activities, delivery schedules and purchasing activities. The major problem with MRP systems is the integrity of the data. If there are any errors in the inventory data, the bill of materials (commonly referred to as 'BOM') data, or the master production schedule, then the outputted data will also be incorrect (colloquially, "GIGO": Garbage In, Garbage Out). Data integrity is also affected by inaccurate cycle count adjustments, mistakes in receiving input and shipping output, scrap not reported, waste, damage, box count errors, supplier container count errors, production reporting errors, and system issues. Many of these types of errors can be minimized by implementing pull systems and using bar code scanning. Most vendors of this type of system recommend at least 99% data integrity for the system to give useful results.
Understanding these MRP requirements, Harinya offered the solutions to meet the MRP requirements and managing the Warehouse Inventory efficiently with the Work Order process using Project & Job allocations, so that the company's production batch can be scheduled, all the purchase & sales transactons can be tracked and the estimated and actual revenues can be calculated.
A Help Desk is an information and assistance resource that troubleshoots problems with services or products. Corporations often provide help desk support to their customers via a toll-free number, website and/or e-mail. There are also in-house help desks geared toward providing the same kind of help for employees.
Understanding these CRM & Help Desk requirements from various business sectors, Harinya offered customized CRM solutions and Help Desk Support software, so that the corporate companies can efficiently manages their leads and customers and generating the opportunities for sales & marketing.

I am born in a Christian family in Orissa State, India. My village and community being reached by some Canadian Baptist missionaries at least 70 years before were saved and trained to look after the church. They have established almost more than 40 church through out my district each village a church.
I would be the fourth Christian generation to my community. My great grand father was the first pastor of my local/ mother Church. My parents were godly and active in church.
Well, being born in Christian family I did not know that I am not a Christian till I become 20 years old.
Once it happened I had stolen Rs.100/- ($ 2.5) from my father's pocket and had spent more than half of it. The day passed by, but till we sit for the evening family prayers I did not know that my father already knew I had stolen.
Usually he often tells me or my sister to read a chapter from the Bible. But that day my father himself read from the Bible a chapter, Proverbs 4. He read so calmly, systematically and clearly that every words of that chapter touched my heart. And I know in me some ting going to happen. Then my father asked me whether I have stolen the money or not. I was just silent and scared. The words of the chapter were still pricking my heart and pointing my sinful life.
Then my father said me that he is going to pray whether I confess and accept my mistake or not. But he was waiting for my Yes or No. I could not hold any more I cried for my sinful life, fallen on my parent's feet and asked pardon from them. As My father then prayed for me and I could realize and understand that I am a new person. And I prayed inside me and accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior.
It was 16th September 1993 evening around 8 pm I became child of God.
Even after the born again experience still I was very much weak and fallen into many temptation and sins. It was then my father realize that I as young man should make my way clean but how (Ps. 119: 9 – 10). He directed me to go and learn Bible and be trained for the God's service.
I joined in Eastern Theological Collage & Seminary, Noida, India and completed my B. Th. in the year 1998 and was serving the Lord in the till 1999. Beside my B. Th. studies I could gain many diverse ministerial experiences such as pioneering evangelism and church planting in several parts of the North India. It was after my 4 years of study and ministry I return home back.
As I prayed for the future ahead of me God directed me for further study in Asia Evangelical College & Seminary, Bangalore, India. In 2000 I completed my M.Div and serve there as dean of the students and assistance professor for a year about.
God began to use me for bigger task and achievement. I came to realize God has gifted me with teaching and preaching talents. I was blessed in serving the Lord as dean of Academic Studies in Asia School of Evangelism & Theology, Bangalore for about 4 years.
After that I happened to marry Siwi, who was my classmate in M. Div studies and was serving the Lord as missionary and teacher in Nepal for 4 years. In 2005 we got married and settled in Bangalore.
We as family joined with International Ministries Fellowship – India, Bangalore as missionaries to International Students and serve the Lord among the students from the various countries there for a year. My wife loves children and to serve among them. We then joined a Children's Home run by New Hope Ministries, Bangalore, for a year.
God blessed us with a daughter, Rachel, in 2006.
As a family we struggled and had to face a lot of challenge. My daughter was just few months old, and had no house to stay for months together. Then God helped us to take a house on rental base. I had to face a lot challenges financially to care my family. I then decided to work in secular fields and do ministry beside. As answer to our prayer God gave job to work at night in Maple Suites Service Apartment, Bangalore as Front Office since 2007.
Meanwhile, God graciously given an opportunity to serve a local new born church, Maranatha Fellowship, Bangalore of my friend, Pastor Venu Gopal as an assistance pastor.
Meanwhile God enabled me to develop my own ministry TARGET FOUNDATION, a Mission to reach Orissa with the gospel of Jesus Christ and transform the lives of my won locality, Orissa State.
God has been faithfully using me and my family to win many souls of Orissa.
I need your prayer supports and partnership in this vision and mission of mine for God's glory.


Having premiered her Hannah Montana movie earlier in London, Miley Cyrus went out last night looking very comfortable casual. She even took a few moments to chat up an unidentified fan (?) before heading into Nobu Park Lane.
What a fabulous life, no?
So what was the young man talking to Miley about? What would YOU say to little Miss Cyrus if you had the chance, and 30 seconds?
It's Bieber for Radio One!

Q: Ruby on Rails - Render form for model when I render an partial for my model I'm using:
<%= partial @my_model %>

Automatically it looks for the file ..view/my_models/_my_model.html.erb
I really like this notation because it feels the right way!
My Problem:
Now I want a notation to automatically look up for the edit partial.
Is there a way? Until now I used
<%= partial 'edit' %>

This is ok, but I have a lot of subclasses for my model and I liked the way that it automatically looks up in the right subclasses view folder for the template.
Until know I have to look for the class for my model and then call
<% if @my_model.class == FirstSubClass %>
    <%= partial 'firstsubclasses/_edit.html.erb' %>
<% elsif @my_model.class == SecondSubClass %>
    <%= partial 'secondsubclasses/_edit.html.erb' %>
<% end %>

I prefer one line :) Any ideas?

A: Try:
<%= partial '#{@my_model.class.name.tableize}/_edit.html.erb' %>

tableize is a method of ActiveSupport::Inflector, which includes some other cool naming manipulation methods.

Q: sending a string from QT to Arduino I'm trying to send a string from qt application to arduino , at first I sent a simple character and it's worked, but when I try to take a string from my Linedit and send it to the arduino via serial port , it show me an error:

erreur : no matching function for call to QSerialPort::write(QString&)

this the code
void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()

{
QString envoi ;

envoi = ui->lineEdit->text();

/* ui->label->setText(envoi); */

  serial.setPortName("com17");

    serial.setBaudRate(QSerialPort::Baud9600);

    serial.setDataBits(QSerialPort::Data8);

    serial.setParity(QSerialPort::NoParity);

    serial.setStopBits(QSerialPort::OneStop);

    serial.setFlowControl(QSerialPort::NoFlowControl);

    serial.open(QIODevice::ReadWrite);

    serial.write(envoi);

}

A: There are three write methods available in QSerialPort all of which are inherited from QIODevice
qint64 QIODevice::write(const char * data, qint64 maxSize)
qint64 QIODevice::write(const char * data) // equivalent to QIODevice::write(data, qstrlen(data));

and lastly
qint64 QIODevice::write(const QByteArray & byteArray)

You have a couple of possibilities to make your write call, the most simple to me seems
serial.write(envoi.toUtf8());

which uses
QByteArray QString::toUtf8()

You can also use convoluted things like
serial.write(envoi.toStdString.c_str() );

which would then use the write(const char * data) method.
Let me know if this helps.

OK, my kids love superheroes. Comics, games, toys and movies. Lub it. Yet while they're aimed at directly in marketing, the main movie isn't really OK for them to view.
12a for Iron Man. F F S.
In this digital age is it TOO much for the movie companies to have different versions for the cinema and on DVD. As a parent I'd love to be able to pop in the U version of spidey3, for example, knowing that the dodgier bits are missing and it's OK for them to view.
After all we have a board of certification who check each scene of the movie, if they can identify 3 or 4 scenes which push from U to PG, 4 from PG to 12, then thats a pathetic 8 changes required to broaden it's market. Once thats budgeted in at the start, for a film AIMED at kids, it would become the norm and make folk like me much much happier.
Then the cinema could have a morning version which is more family friendly, cut rate for families and a post midday screening of the regular version. Everyone wins!
Now I've got the prospect of taking my youngest (at 4) to a 12A, I'm not thrilled about it but he loves the character and I reckon I'll do it. But take him out if he's scared, cover eyes/ears during more suspect moments. Sit at the back of the hall so it's not filling his FOV.
But it's very very annoying that we are expected to shell out for all the associated toys for these franchises, but they won't customise the actual main event for the actual buyers!
Spiderman and superman have really been ok for the kids, only dodgy bit was venom taking over Peter Parker in his sleep. But batman, the new batman stuff is a headfuck. I can only imagine the one due out will be worse. Yet batman and robin suits are aimed at pre12s, bloody double standard shite.
I'm sure I'll burn in hell for taking him, but he can build a pan dimensional suit of armour and come rescue me.
Labels: TalkThought
Yeah, I've been in the same situation with my nippers (now 5 & 9). e.g. Pirates of the Caribbean (Also 12a iirc).
In my case they haven't even seen the DVD yet. They were younger when it came out obviously. As of now I'd let the 9yo watch it, but 12A really does mean 12, unless you have a reason to think that your kid would be OK with it. 8 is often banded about as an absolute minimum. But four...hmmm.
Personally, I'd like a 18 Iron Man who's an alcoholic like the comics :)
Coincidentally, I posted a vaguely similar comment on a forum this morning. My son is 5 and a half, and has seen the Ironman trailer on TV. He's really keen to see it, but it's a 12A. That in itself isn't a problem. He's watched other 12A films (for example, Spider-Man was a 12A at the cinema, and is a 12 on DVD IIRC). The problem I have here is that I don't know the content of the film. When my son saw Spider-Man, I knew the content in advance, since I'd seen it. He's seen all the Harry Potter films as well, but I knew the stories and had seen the films before him in some cases. With Ironman, that's not the case, so I'm facing either taking him in "blind", or going to see it once on my own, then again with him if it's suitable. It's irritating, since as you say these films - the merchandise at least - are pitched at young kids.
The pbbfc provides more info than the regular bbfc site
http://www.pbbfc.co.uk/filmDetail.asp?filmID=923
Having seen Iron Man at the cinema now, I'd say this: there is no way a four year old should be allowed to watch this film the first half of the movie has some very strong issues for a seven year old tooThe first half of the film has regular violence, frequent death, several scenes of torture, pain, heart surgery, one scene of Stark bedding a blonde, images of injuries, scenes of graphic paralysis, and lots of guns, explosions and destruction. This stuff just isn't right for young kids. No question.The second half of the film is superhero-movie-by-numbers, and wouldn't be too much beyond a wide-eyed 7-year-old.Multiple versions of the same film or franchise dilutes the art. Why should good material be wasted on the lowest common denominator? Screw your kids, I want decent material turned into a decent film!

The movable soccer goal should also have all exposed corners and edges rounded with a radius of no less than 3mm. The following warning should also be placed along the crossbar with the upper case letters being at least 25mm high, and the lower case letters at least 12.5mm high.
"WARNING - ALWAYS ANCHOR GOAL - NEVER CLIMB OR HANG ON CROSSBAR. Unanchored goals can tip over causing serious injury or death."
Note: This regulation does not apply to indoor soccer goals or soccer goals supported by a sleeve set in the ground.
When goals are not in use, they must be locked into a position where they can not cause injury to other field users or obstruct Council staff from undertaking maintenance such as mowing.

young new york artist jane moseley is reclaiming her weirdo status
We talk to the downtown artist about scary movies, painting zombies, and finding the fantastic in the Romantic.
Google Jane Moseley and you might come away with a certain impression. There's the dreamy fashion video for a Rodarte collection. The party pics and portraits in fashion magazines, which bring to mind a young Jennifer Connelly. The weird thing is, none of this fits with the stuff that comes out of Moseley's mouth. "I'm one of those sad cat people," she jokes as I pet Human, one of her three feline housemates. "I much prefer their company to going out."
Dark humor is Moseley's M.O. on canvas, too. In one recent painting, abstract forms are speckled with Zombie temporary tattoos. Nearby, in a corner of her East Village apartment sits a collection of wizard staffs, fashioned out of branches and crystal balls. "I watched a lot of horror movies when I was a kid," she notes. Plus, "I'm making a joke on the minimalist painted wood trend."
Moseley, 27, is one of those young artists on the cusp of downtown celebrity but in search of something bigger. Unlike many of her peers, she's not interested in the traditional path via it-girldom. "My art doesn't have much to do with my persona," the L.A.-native tells me. "The idea of a young attractive person in New York who hangs out with certain people is very commodifiable... but it could also be the reason you don't get taken seriously."
If Moseley has opinions about the artist as commodity, it's because she's been one. When she first moved to New York after graduating from Bard in 2009, Moseley fell in with the Still House Group, a buzzy, mostly male collective. Soon, Moseley was being asked to do the occasional modelling gig. The money was good—better than the retail and restaurant jobs she worked otherwise—but hard to keep separate from her art. "I regret a lot of the things I said 'yes' to when I was younger," she says. "Especially the ones where it's like, the merging of fashion and my art and I'm wearing a little monkey suit being like, this is my art! Here's my soul! Take it."
There's a certain type of artist who manages to parlay such opportunities into professional success. Jeanette Hayes and Aurel Schmidt come to mind. But they also tend to deal with particular themes—identity, celebrity, self-image—that link their work and their personas. Moseley's art, meanwhile, is about the ways we escape ourselves. Hence the references to sci-fi, horror, and fantasy.
One recent series, currently hanging in her apartment next to the wizard staffs, juxtaposes 19th century Romantic painting and video game fan art. "I'm arguing they're the same," she says, pointing out a 3D Lord of the Rings rendering that sits atop a Caspar David Friedrich landscape. "There's this fundamental human need to create immersive worlds."
Fantasy worlds can be repulsive, too. The zombie tattoos on Moseley's paintings are meant to recall STDs, and the art world's fraught history with them. (The women of Picasso's Demoiselles D'Avignon, for instance, were disfigured by syphilis, some have argued.) "The human body is gross," Moseley says. "We have zits and hair and secretion and mental illnesses. There's so many parts of us that are terrifying, like the natural world."
Moseley credits a fascination with the macabre to her father, Bill Moseley, the cult horror film actor, who first showed her films like Candy Man and A Nightmare on Elm Street. "Growing up, I would try to sit through the scariest movie I possibly could without acknowledging I was scared," she recalls. "It was some challenge myself to prove I was cool and hard." Moseley's first-grade sketchbook is hands-down the weirdest I've seen. There's Rocky Horror Picture Show sketches, X-rated bondage scenes, and clowns. "If I were a clown I would kill people," reads one drawing.
When I meet Moseley at her apartment, she's wearing a Transylvania University hoodie, bought with her dad at a horror convention at the Kentucky college. "My interests haven't really evolved," she jokes. But when she first moved to New York, it took her a moment to integrate them into her work. Certain genres of art are more marketable, and the financial pressure of living in New York makes it tempting to cater to them. "People are attracted to work that isn't earnest or direct," Moseley says. "If it's ambiguous, or minimal, or design-y, they connect with it and buy it."
Eventually, she realised that her favourite kind of work "is mostly unaffected by the art world." These days, she doesn't try to sell every piece, and she's thinking of moving to L.A. in search of more space. If they pile up and collect dust for a little while, that's OK. "Art shouldn't be a young person's game," she says. "Maybe the best work I'll make will be 10 years from now."

The Importance of "Staying Rooted" in These Times – Xicana Ph.D.
Remembering who I am has meant for me to remember my roots. Our roots are what hold us steady no matter what may come our way. They remind us to keep growing up and if we need a reminder of how strong we are, we can kneel down to remember there are lessons in the ground we stand and walk upon. Inside of these veins contain years of experiences, including memories of those who came before us reminding that we are always stronger than we think we are.
I present a number of writing workshops, but most recently this past week at UCLA and in April at a conference called Adelante Mujer Latina in Pasadena, CA, I present a workshop with the same name as this post "staying rooted".
Both of these recent experiences reminded me how important our stories are. How important it is to be in community. How important it is to speak. I am reminded daily how important remembering who we are is on a day to day.
In my classroom I have a wide range of students with different life experiences. Many have gone through and continue to struggle with difficulties, losses, and challenges, but I also see and share the joy that arises from knowing and taking pride in oneself. The slow awakening of a part of them that has been made to feel ashamed, erased, degraded, and unimportant. That is part of the hope of Ethnic Studies in our schools is to instill a sense of pride and empowerment that students will hold their heads a little higher with the knowledge that they are the ones we have been waiting for.
We are also the ones because we are still here and have a responsibility to our communities. We can't forget who we are or where we come from or think just because we have degrees or are holders of keys to gates that were locked previously that we must lock out everyone else or that somehow it makes us better, more deserving. It doesn't. We can not buy into a system that is deceptive or upholds meritocracy. That some are deserving and some are not. That is not how this is supposed to work. In a society where legacies of violence against Latinx/Mexican people in the Southwest, we are reminded this week that some things haven't changed. From 45 stating that immigrants are animals, to racists in NYC shaming people from speaking Spanish, to so much more on a weekly basis, daily basis now. How can one remember who they are when for centuries we have been called and made to believe we are less than?
I am often angry by the events occurring constantly. I was asked during one workshop recently what I do with that anger. I admitted that yes, sometimes I still get stuck. Sometimes though I get so angry I cry. I let myself now. I figure that it isn't always a bad thing to hold in my hand, bury it in the ground beneath me, let it compost and feed the ground I walk upon. It is possible for it to come out different, as something like what you read today. I write. It becomes something I grew, only because I held on to what gave me strength. That for me means being unapologetically myself, a Xicana, a mama, an educator, a writer, a poet, a mujer who is not afraid anymore to proclaim, yes I am here. I am here. I am here. You are too and these roots that hold us all here remind us who we are in times where the powers that be attempt to decide for us. We say no more.
No more lies. No more injustice. No more. We decide now.

According to The Council for Responsible Genetics, there have been almost five hundred cases of individuals who have been turned down for employment or other positions or who have lost insurance due to genetic abnormalities.
However, a part of the Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act (GINA) came into effect this week.. GINA will give Americans more protection from health insurance discrimination based on their personal genetic information. GINA also prohibits insurance companies from basing coverage eligibility or premium costs on DNA tests. Insurance companies are now also banned from requesting that health insurance policy applicants undergo genetic testing or screening.

ARC Review | Only Mostly Devastated by Sophie Gonzales

Genre: Young Adult, Contemporary

ARC from Edelweiss
SIMON VS. THE HOMO SAPIENS AGENDA meets CLUELESS in this boy-meets-boy spin on Grease
Summer love…gone so fast.
Ollie and Will were meant to be a summer fling—casual, fun, and done. But when Ollie's aunt's health takes a turn for the worse and his family decides to stay in North Carolina to take care of her, Ollie lets himself hope this fling can grow to something more. Dreams that are crushed when he sees Will at a school party and finds that the sweet and affectionate (and comfortably queer) guy he knew from summer isn't the same one attending Collinswood High.
Will is more than a little shocked to see Ollie the evening of that first day of school. While his summer was spent being very much himself, back at school he's simply known as one of the varsity basketball guys. Now Will is faced with the biggest challenge of his life: follow his heart and risk his friendships, or stay firmly in the closet and lose what he loves most.
| Book Review |
When I read that Only Mostly Devastated was a boy-meets-boy spin on Grease, I was all in. This book was such a fun play off the movie. When Ollie's family decides to stay in North Carolina to help out his ill aunt and her family, he is shocked to find that his summer fling, Will, is one of his new classmates. And that he is nothing like the boy Ollie remembers. He was gentle and kind over the summer, but as one of the class jocks, he is more flippant and sarcastic. This frustrated me as much as it frustrated Ollie, but also like Ollie, I had all the hope in the world when Will would give him a glimpse of the boy he'd been. I really liked the friend group. The girls were of course as feminist as could be, and while it felt like overkill at times, it still was fun. I do wonder why Ollie would be friends with girls who really weren't very nice to him at times. I know he was new and wanted a place to fit in, but even after he met new people, he still hung out with them. I did like them in the end, but it's almost like he hung around them the whole book just to have it all come together at the end, but because Ollie couldn't see what was coming, I'm not sure I feel like it was worth it. As for Will's friend group, they weren't very aware of what was going on around them or the way they talked about people, but I think they were completely ignorant vs. purposefully being jerks, and in the end, I liked them and the fact that they became more aware. For other secondary characters, I really loved Ollie's family dynamic so much. They were really close and there for each other, and this whole story arc broke my heart even while it left me smiling.
This story really was a lot of fun, albeit with serious issues cropping up. But that's reminiscent of life – smiling when you can, making the most of every moment, and dealing with the hits as they come. I will say that while the tick tick ticking of social justice boxes wasn't as prominent in this book as other YAs, there was still an 'all Republicans are bad' that left my eyes rolling. I'm as sick of both sides going after each other in books as I am in real life, even with snide comments. At this point, it's starting to feel tropey, which feels a bit dangerous to me. And while, to me, it reflects the immaturity of a character, it's starting to feel like a reflection of an author's immaturity as well.
Having said that, I really enjoyed this book and had a blast reading it. And it's probably not good form to say this, but I feel like this was everything I wanted What if It's Us by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera to be. If you're looking for a fun way to while away the afternoon, you can't go wrong with Only Mostly Devastated.

A m/m retelling of Grease? That is fabulous. Good to know about the rah, rah feminists and the political jabbing- I'm over that, too.
Yeah. The political jabbing gets to me. It's so divisive. And in YA, it just feels even more disconcerting.
Wow with MM retelling of Grease this should be so good 😉 I am glad you loved it!
It was very good! 🙂
Wow! I see why you wanted to read this one. That MM retelling of Grease thing pulled me in, too! I might have to read this one since you liked it so much (despite the feminists).
Yeah. The blurb was irresistible. Honestly, the young women in this book weren't that bad. It's just – do we have to take offense at everything a man says? Have we even lost the ability to take a joke? The hardest part for me is when it feels like someone purposefully takes something out of context.
ratmom says:
That sounds like a really good book. Glad to hear you liked it.
I feel like I have watched Grease so many times, I can just see the movie in my head. This sounds like one I should add to my wishlist. It sounds fun even if it has a few issues.
Politics in books really can be a bit too much these days, so that's a shame. I'm glad you enjoyed this one overall though. I have a copy to read soon.
Book Sniffers Anon📚 (@_Kristin315_) says:
This sounds like it would be such a cute read. Although, I think my eye would be twitching like mad at all the political jabs. I'm glad that you still enjoyed it.
I love Grease so this book really appeals to me. I'm glad to hear it was a good read for you. 🙂


Bulgaria's worldwide reputation for high quality medical education is built on a solid commitment to excellence and foundations of exceptional medical research. It should come as no surprise, thus, that hundreds of graduates of Bulgarian Medical Universities are innovators in their fields, leaders in their communities and envoys of distinction in their specialty the world over. Better yet, Bulgarian Medical Degrees are recognized globally and enjoy a high reputation in the medical community. Undoubtedly, the Bulgarian Institutions' high prestige, combined with Bulgaria's particularly low cost of living, render Bulgaria an ideal and, by extension, well-sought after academic polestar for prospective international students of medicine.
More specifically, Bulgarian Medical Universities offer English and Bulgarian taught programs in Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursery and Midwifery. Additional programs offered only in Bulgarian include Physiotherapy, Dietetics, Public Health, HealthCare, Medical Rehabilitation & Ergotherapy, as well as studies that lead to the professional credentials of Dental Technician, Medical Laboratory Assistant, Assistant-pharmacist, Public Health Inspector, Technical Dental Assistant, Physiotherapy Assistant, Radiology Assistant, Social Worker, and Medical Cosmetics, among others.
Medicine is a 6-year taught programme, with instruction exclusively in English, starting with undergraduate degree-level courses that lead to a Master's Degree in medicine upon graduation, whereby the professional qualification of "Physician" is awarded. After this, graduates must pursue specialization via residency practice for 4 to 6 years, whether in Bulgaria or elsewhere. Possession of this Degree entitles the holder to practice medicine in any EU or non-EU country around the globe. English taught courses in Medicine comprise 10 semesters and 1 year (310 calendar days) of state clinical internships. More specifically, the program consists of 2 years of pre-clinical study, 3 years of clinical study and the last year of clinical practice (internship). Hence, the aforementioned first 2 years of medical school focus on the fundamentals as well as science courses, while clinical studies and training examine the application of biomedical science precincts mastered during the first 2 years of medical school, and the last year of medical studies focuses exclusively on practical training. The final assessment of knowledge and expertise acquired by the medical student upon completion of the programme is made by the State Examination Board via comprehensive theoretical and practical examinations. After this, the student must continue with their specialization via residency practice which, if completed in Bulgaria, may be government-funded, sponsored, or self-funded for EU students including Bulgarians, or self-funded for non-EU students, and is completed with the State Specialty Examination after the Ministry of Healthcare has announced residency positions for which students apply through their universities.
Dentistry is a 6-year taught programme, instructed entirely in English, starting at an undergraduate level and leading to a Master's Degree in dental medicine. Optionally, graduates may choose to specialize for 3-4 years, whether in Bulgaria or abroad. The curriculum includes training in Dental Medicine for 5 years (ten semesters), as well as 2 required practical training sessions that span 30 calendar days (each training covers 150 hours) after the 6th and the 8th semester. Before graduating, students are required to complete 1 year of pre-graduation practice (135 working days or 1080 hours). Theoretical training is conducted via obligatory courses, electives and facultative disciplines in the form of lectures, seminars, practical exercise and self-training. Practical training takes place during the training semester before graduation, and includes internships and rotation, as well as therapeutic activity and instruction in clinics. In order to graduate, students are required to pass the State Final Certification Examination.
Veterinary Medicine studies typically last 5 and a half years, and the language of instruction is English. Starting with courses that focus at an undergraduate level, the programme leads to a Master's Degree in veterinary medicine. Optionally, graduates may choose to specialize in a field for 3-4 years, whether in Bulgaria or abroad. The curriculum includes 10 semesters of training and 1 semester of a pre-graduation internship culminating with the successful completion of state examinations. More specifically, the programme covers theoretical and practical knowledge of specific clinical subjects, such as animal species, internal, infectious and invasive diseases, toxic and metabolic disorders and finally, impairment by radiation and unfavorable environmental effects on organisms, to name but a few. In order to graduate, students are required to pass the State Final Certification Examination. Graduates have thorough knowledge about diseases common to both man and animals and are able to contribute to the protection of human health through their veterinary practice by helping minimize the incidence of zoonosis. Graduates usually opt for the following professional areas: Veterinary healthcare in districts that are in need for rotating veterinary care or private offices and clinics, Mass-scale industrial food production, Production and distribution of veterinary medicine, veterinary tools and equipment, feed and feed additives, or may opt to become teachers themselves.
The Pharmacy programme lasts 5 years, commencing with undergraduate level courses and leading to a Master's Degree upon graduation. Subsequently, candidates may choose to pursue specialization in a particular area for 3 years, whether in Bulgaria or abroad. Courses are taught entirely in English, while training comprises 9 semesters and 6 months of pre-graduation practical training. Typically, the academic program focuses on 39 subjects. In particular, after their 5th semester, students can choose from additional specializations in Industrial Pharmacy and Clinical Pharmacy. In order to graduate, students are required to pass the State Final Certification Examination on five subjects (pharmacognosy, pharmacology, pharmaceutical chemistry, pharmaceutical technology and social pharmacy) or to prepare and defend a Degree thesis.
The programme in Nursing lasts 4 years, with courses and practical training taught exclusively in English, and leads to a Bachelor's Degree in Nursing. The curriculum consists of 7 semesters that focus on theoretical and practical study at the Medical University and the University hospital, and 1 semester of state clinical practice or internship. Courses focus on a wide range of theoretical and clinical knowledge in the form of lectures, seminars, educational workshops and individual work. More specifically, theoretical knowledge is acquired through compulsory and elective subjects within the approved study plan stipulated in the academic calendar, while the choice of courses pertaining to clinical knowledge is based on clinical training. Lastly, graduate practice takes place with a focus on specific nursing clinical specialties. This degree entitles the holder to pursue further studies at a Master's level in Nursing or related medical fields, either in Bulgaria or abroad.
The programme in Midwifery lasts 4 years, with courses and practical training taught entirely in English, and leads to a Bachelor's Degree in Midwifery. The program consists of 7 semesters, during which students focus on both theoretical and practical study, and one semester of either state clinical practice or an internship. Academic training includes theoretical and clinical courses in the form of lectures, seminars and individual work. The curriculum is structured in such a way so that student training includes advanced clinical and specialty hands-on experience, besides its intensive theoretical focus. Training received in the Midwifery programme incorporates all modern medical advances and necessary knowledge pertaining to obstetric and gynecological practices, so as to advance students' education with an all-encompassing experience on related subjects. Typically, graduates of midwifery programmes have a solid theoretical and practical training of midwifery, and are entitled to work in obstetrics and gynecology hospitals besides departments of preventive medicine, as well as related medical and scientific research institutes. This degree entitles the holder to pursue further studies at a Master's level in Midwifery or related medical fields, either in Bulgaria or abroad.
In general, tuition fees for EU and non-EU students of English taught programs offered by Medical Universities in Bulgaria range between 2,500–6,000 annually. Specifically, studies in Medicine cost between 5,000–6,000 per year, studies in Dentistry approximately cost 6,000 per year and studies in Veterinary Medicine cost range from 2,500 to 3,300 per year. If English is not a candidate's mother tongue, they will either have to submit an internationally recognized certificate of competency in the English language, take an English test or go through a preparatory course to learn English. The preparatory course lasts 9 months and costs between 2,190–3,504, depending on the programme and University academic calendar regulations.
Postgraduate medical study (specializations and doctoral degrees) is offered for free for all EU students after they successfully pass an entrance examination, but non-EU students pay tuition fees in the vicinity of 3,650, depending on programme requirements and the University.

Gene loss gave songbirds the 'pipes' for singing
November 12th, 2020 Posted by Ida Eriksen-U. Copenhagen

An effort to map the genetic material of all birds reveals their genetic material is remarkably similar and helps explain songbirds' beautiful voices.
The findings are a small part of the world's largest genome-sequencing projects on animals—the B10K—in which researchers are mapping the genomes of each of the world's 10,500 bird species.
So far, the researchers have mapped 363 genomes from 92.4% of all bird families on Earth.
In their new study in the journal Nature, the second phase out of four, they have investigated the genomic differences and similarities of birds.
"We are surprised by the similarities among avian DNA," says professor Guojie Zhang of the University of Copenhagen's biology department and one of B10K's lead researchers. "Also, birds have lost numerous genes in their common ancestor since their evolution from dinosaurs during the last more than 150 million years. This is a result of their adaptation towards being able to fly."
Genes were also lost and gained in more recent bird evolution, for example in songbirds, which are a part of the passerine bird family—an extraordinary diverse bird group with over 6,000 species.
According to the study, songbirds have lost a gene known as cornulin, which controls mechanical resilience and elasticity of the esophagus and affects their ability to sing.
The loss of this gene has permitted the esophagus to become more flexible, allowing songbirds to use the mouth and esophagus as an acoustic filter. By rapidly changing the volume of this cavity, overtones (upper harmonics) disappear and pure tones of different frequencies result.
The ability to sing with pure tones is a special feature of songbirds, according to Leopold Eckhart who is a professor at the Medical University of Vienna and a researcher on the B10K.
"Most birds communicate through sounds but songbirds are outstanding. Surprisingly, it was not the evolution of new genes but the loss of an old gene that helped songbirds to become the best singers," he says.
Most birds, reptiles, and mammals (including humans) have retained cornulin, whereas songbirds benefited from mutations that destroyed this gene. Researchers are now using the new bird genome sequences to identify more subtle changes in other genes that also contributed to the evolution of birdsong, Eckhart explains.
It is important to note that this is just one of many examples on how the bird genomes are different from each other.
The researchers in the B10K study collected tissue samples from birds in the Danish Natural History Museum, the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, and Louisiana State University's Museum of Natural Science among others.
The genomes from the tissue samples were analyzed using computer models that compare genomes to identify differences and similarities. With this method, the researchers were able to reveal hidden parts of their evolution.
"Genomes are a rich source of information that can be applied to a range of questions. We are using the data to reconstruct the evolutionary relationships among different birds and to uncover the differences and similarities in certain genes and pathways. The genomes also facilitate analyses typically done in conservation genetics that aim to preserve the viability of bird populations," concludes Josefin Stiller, a postdoctoral researcher in the biology department and a contributor to the mapping project.

Have Questions About Your Child's Development? 'Help Me Grow' Offers Free Support
Help Me Grow, funded in part by the Preschool Development Grant, supports families and caregivers that have concerns about their child's behavioral issues or developmental delays and connects them to free community-based services.
By Ashia Aubrey
Parents whose children struggle with early learning or show signs of behavioral issues or developmental delays may not know where to turn. Or they may face barriers to making sure their needs are being met and finding resources. One organization wants to help.
Help Me Grow is working to assure families that children can thrive regardless of their developmental stage. The national organization, piloted in Nebraska, acts as a framework and connection point for families and lives out its mission to "nurture every child on the path of success."
"All children should have the opportunity to reach their full potential," said Rick Helweg, the project manager of Help Me Grow.
Help Me Grow, funded in part by the Preschool Development Grant, wants families and caregivers to be supported and helps them identify any developmental, behavioral, or educational concerns they may have by connecting them to free community-based services. For example, a parent or caregiver may be concerned about how their child learns, plays, or interacts with others. A guide on the Help Me Grow website provides a milestone checklist and tips on how to talk to a doctor about it. Other resources include help for health care workers and emergency responders who need child care. Help Me Grow also offers free developmental screenings and tips on sensory milestones and toddler and preschool-age growth.
Roughly one in six children in the United States have a developmental disability or developmental delay, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In Nebraska, 2,332 infants and toddlers with developmental delays, speech and hearing language impairment, autism, and other disabilities were served through the Early Development Network in 2018–19, according to the 2020 Kids Count in Nebraska report.
"There's a lot of resources in the state of Nebraska—specifically there's a lot of resources in Lincoln and Lancaster County—but sometimes it's hard for parents to know how to access those resources," Helweg said.
Help Me Grow started in Nebraska to support children and families. Helweg said about two years went into interviewing thousands of people across the state—child care providers, health care workers, parents and families, community members, and more. The assessment revealed issues related to early childhood in Nebraska—people worked in silos, and mental health support for children from birth to age 8 was lacking. Help Me Grow wanted to get community members to work together for children's health and be a centralized access point for families.
Help Me Grow also provides local support in Lincoln and Lancaster County to families through the 211 Helpline that the United Way of the Midlands operates. The helpline care coordinator supports the caller with questions they have regarding their child. The 211 system fields questions from parents and connects them with resources on other social factors of health, like food, transportation, and housing. If parents have further questions about their child's development, they may be referred to a team of parent resource coordinators at the University of Nebraska Medical Center's Munroe-Meyer Institute, which offers therapy, treatment, and other services to children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The program is also extending its services and working with child care centers. Help Me Grow recently partnered with Educare Lincoln to connect families to the program. Helweg said they hope to have Help Me Grow associated with most health care and early child care providers in Lincoln and Lancaster County. Expansion is also on the horizon for Help Me Grow—Helweg said the program would like to have a statewide presence, from the Omaha metro area to rural Nebraska.

Conter History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
Early Origins of the Conter family
The surname Conter was first found in Cornwall in the parish of St. Clement's.
"In this town, says Hals, is that well known place called Con-or Con-dura. From which place, in all probability, was denominated Cundor or Conder, in Latin Condorus, Earl of Cornwall, at the time of the Norman Conquest, who perhaps lived or was born here. And moreover, the inhabitants of this church town and the neighbourhood will tell you by tradition from age to age, that here once dwelt a great lord and lady Condura. This Condorus, as our historians tell us, submitted to the Conqueror's jurisdiction in 1066, paid homage for his earldom, and took an oath of fealty to him. But this account has not the appearance of truth; for most certain it is, he in the third year of the Conqueror's reign, was deprived of his earldom, the same being given to Robert Earl of Moreton, whose son succeeded him in that dignity. But be this as it may, it is certain that this Condorus had a son named Caddock, by some called Condorus the second, whose chief residence was at Inceworth, near Millbrook. This Caddock died in the year 1120, and his remains now lie in the chancel of St. Stephen's Church, near Saltash." [1]
Another source claims the family was from Shropshire (Salop) where they were Lords of the Manor at Condover. In this case, the surname is descended from the tenant of the lands and large village of Condover were held by Earl Roger and Roger Venator who was recorded in the Domesday Book census of 1086. [2]
