Home National News President Trump charged with 'incitement of insurrection' in wake of U.S. Capitol...

CLEVELAND — The House of Representatives impeached President Donald Trump, charging him with "incitement of insurrection" for a speech lawmakers said spurred the riot at the U.S. Capitol and making him the first commander in chief to be impeached twice.
The House Jan. 13 voted 232-197 to charge Trump, voting largely along party lines following two hours of debate.

Ten Republicans joined all 222 House Democrats to approve the measure, one week after the violence.
House leaders planned to submit the article of impeachment to the Senate immediately after passage. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, has said the body would not take up the case before the inauguration of Joe Biden Jan. 20.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-California, opened two hours of debate by saying Trump was "a clear and present danger" to the nation and should be removed from office.
Momentum for impeachment built quickly in the days following the invasion of the Capitol by Trump supporters. Democrats expressed a desire to hold Trump accountable for actions during a Jan. 6 rally near the White House that they believe incited a violent mob.
On Capitol Hill that day, members of both chambers of Congress — gathered to affirm the election of Biden as president and Kamala Harris as vice president — were rushed into lockdown as rioters roamed the Capitol and vandalized offices.

The violence angered Democrats and Republicans, who felt their lives were endangered. However, the parties largely held differing views on how best to respond.
Democrats pushed for Trump's immediate removal from office, saying he continues to pose a danger to the country during the final days of his presidency. They began drafting an article of impeachment while calling on Vice President Mike Pence and the Cabinet to take steps under the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office.
Late Jan. 12, the House of Representatives adopted a resolution formally asking Pence to invoke the amendment. The measure passed 223-205, but is largely seen as symbolic because Pence later rejected taking such action.
While agreeing that the invasion was criminal in nature, Republicans argued for a different course of action, urging steps be taken to unify the nation. They claimed that impeachment would contribute to deeper partisan divides throughout the country.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-California, was among several Republicans throughout the day who called for forming a bipartisan commission that would investigate the security failings at the Capitol and develop recommendations to prevent future attacks.
A day before the House vote, members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the body of senior uniformed leaders at the Pentagon, condemned the riot as "a direct assault on the U.S. Congress, the Capitol building and our constitutional process."
The eight military leaders also affirmed Biden will be sworn into office Jan. 20, becoming the country's 46th commander in chief.
The memo was a rare step for the joint chiefs as they have sought to keep the U.S. military out of the bitter political debates that have engulfed the nation in recent years.
In addition, the military leaders said they mourned the deaths of the two Capitol Police officers and others connected to the events.

"We witnessed actions inside the Capitol building that were inconsistent with the rule of law," the memo said. "The rights of freedom of speech and assembly do not give anyone the right to resort to violence, sedition and insurrection."
The tone of deliberations on the impeachment article was civil in contrast with the rancorous debate in December 2019 that resulted in Trump being impeached the first time. The Senate acquitted Trump of charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress Feb. 5 following a three-week trial.
The new impeachment resolution cited Trump's repeated false and unsubstantiated claims that he won the November election. It also referenced his speech to supporters during a Jan. 6 rally near the White House after which participants marched to the Capitol. A large contingent violently breached security, disrupting the constitutionally directed action to affirm Biden as president and causing members of Congress to go into lockdown.
In the speech, Trump urged his supporters to continue the fight against the 2020 election results and "demand Congress do the right thing."
"I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard," he said.
The House's article of impeachment also said Trump's conduct earlier worked to "subvert and obstruct" certification of the election results. It particularly described Trump's Jan. 2 call with the Georgia Republican secretary of state urging the official to "find" enough votes for the president to win the state.
"In all this, President Trump gravely endangered the security of the United States and its institutions of government," the resolution says. "He threatened the integrity of the democratic system, interfered with the peaceful transition of power, and imperiled a coequal branch of Government. He thereby betrayed his trust as president, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States."

NASA to astronauts: Rain delays likely for return

(AP) -- NASA warned space shuttle Discovery's astronauts Sunday to expect rain delays as they wrapped up their two-week mission and got ready to come home.
Discovery and its crew of seven were scheduled to land Monday morning at NASA's Florida spaceport.
Shuttle commander Alan Poindexter said Sunday that he enjoys spending extra time in orbit and doesn't mind if Discovery can't make it back to Earth until Tuesday.
Mission Control promised to keep monitoring the weather in case the forecast improved. In the worst case, Discovery could always aim for the backup landing site in Southern California on Tuesday.
Poindexter and his crew are returning from the International Space Station after stockpiling it with supplies, science experiments and extra spare parts, including a tank full of ammonia coolant. It took three spacewalks to install the tank.
Providing Florida's weather cooperates, Discovery will crisscross much of the United States during re-entry, zooming in from the Pacific Northwest. For safety reasons, NASA typically prefers to bring a space shuttle home from the southwest, up over the South Pacific, Central America and the Gulf of Mexico.
It's a lesson NASA learned the hard way in 2003, when Columbia shattered over Texas during re-entry. All seven astronauts were killed, but remarkably, no one was hurt on the ground by the wreckage.
Since then, only one other shuttle mission has ended with a continental flyover, back in 2007.
Before Discovery's April 5 liftoff, NASA altered the flight path to maximize the astronauts' work time in orbit without wearing them down.
The rare U.S. flyover - weather permitting - was going to provide a streaking light show for those beneath the flight path. For Monday's first landing opportunity at 8:48 a.m., Discovery would zoom over British Columbia and Alberta, swing down over Montana and the Dakotas, and pass over Sioux City, Iowa, and the middle of Missouri. Then it would come down over the eastern border of Arkansas and Tennessee, then over northeastern Mississippi and Alabama, southwestern Georgia and almost directly over Jacksonville.
The second opportunity, 1 1/2 hours later, would have the shuttle crossing over Washington state and passing over more of the heartland.
Of course, a landing in California would scratch all this.
Only three shuttle flights remain. Pilot James Dutton Jr. said that was on his mind as he flew Discovery away from the International Space Station on Saturday.
"Definitely as we were backing away from the space station yesterday, there were a lot of oohs and aahs on the flight deck," Dutton told The Associated Press in an interview. "It was just absolutely beautiful to see that manmade creation up there, floating above the Earth."
He added: "The shuttle has made a huge contribution to space exploration."
The astronauts said they've been keeping up with news about NASA's change of course. President Barack Obama outlined his exploration plans during a visit Thursday to Kennedy Space Center, promising astronauts would head to an asteroid by 2025 and Mars by 2035.
"It's cool to think that we're back in the exploration business," astronaut Dorothy Metcalf-Lindenburger told the AP.
Metcalf-Lindenburger, 34, a former high school teacher, said she's from a generation that did not get to witness the Apollo moon landings. So she was excited about the previous administration's effort to return astronauts to the lunar surface.
"But an asteroid is quite a challenge" and could save the planet from the kind of destruction and extinction that occurred in the past, she noted.
"Wherever we go out in our solar system, from a teaching standpoint, I really hope that students are engaged in learning math and science, and taking as much advantage of the technology we have," she said. "We should always try to be a leader in this."

BBC diversity training scheme with new group is Stonewall 'in all but name'
Concern over broadcaster's partnership with Involve UK, whose owner boasts online about being a 'proud ambassador' of the LGBT charity
By Ewan Somerville 20 November 2021 • 5:37pm

The BBC has been accused of subscribing to Stonewall "in all but name" as it joins a new transgender training scheme run by an ambassador of the controversial charity which celebrates its backers.
The corporation last week quit the charity's embattled Diversity Champions scheme, which advises workplaces on pronouns and gender-neutral facilities, citing impartiality concerns.
It was the latest in a string of high-profile public bodies to exit the 850-member programme, after disquiet that employers pay £2,500 a year or more to be lobbied to open women-only spaces to males and drop words such as "mother".
However, amid a revolt from LGBT staff over the move, Tim Davie, the BBC's director general, has now promised to begin an alternative partnership with a group called Involve UK.
The Telegraph can reveal that the group is founded and run by Suki Sandhu, who said online he is "proud to be a Stonewall Ambassador". The Stonewall website said that its ambassadors are "a group of our closest supporters, giving £1,800 a year or more".
Here's a mid-week question for you. ⬇💡
Keep reading for details on how we can help you cultivate an LGBT+ inclusive environment and help you to support your LGBT+ employees in their career development. 🏳🌈🏳⚧
1/8 ⬇ pic.twitter.com/2hlXhqXG7M
— INvolve (@INvolvePeople) November 17, 2021
Involve UK said it aims to "truly shift the dial when it comes to creating an inclusive and diverse business". One of its main functions is a list of "LGBT+ role models" for employers to learn from, which celebrates Stonewall in a glowing light 25 times.
Mr Davie told staff that "the BBC can not be impartial when reporting on public policy debates where Stonewall is taking an active, campaigning role", which led to an angry Zoom call where the BBC's head of news told staff to "get used" to hearing different viewpoints.
However, campaigners have accused the broadcaster of "Stonewall in all but name", while a senior Tory MP told the BBC it "should know" that "far-Left organisations disguise intent".
Guidance on using honorifics
Guidance documents by Involve UK make numerous interventions on trans debates. This includes reviewing honourifics – common examples of which are Mr and Ms – and advocating for self-identified gender, a stance shared by Stonewall which feminists say is relegating biological sex to irrelevance and distorting statistics.
One Involve UK guide, titled Championing a Trans-inclusive Workplace, said: "Examine your application and recruitment processes; what honorifics are available on applications? How are job descriptions written? In your employee surveys, is there a free text option to allow people to self-identify?"
The guide added: "Another important question to ask is how are you engaging with clients and customers? Can they self-identify? What honorifics are in place when they sign up to services or use your products?"
Meanwhile, Involve UK's role model list celebrates executives for working with Stonewall, celebrates high positions on Stonewall's controversial Workplace Equality Index league table which the BBC has quit, and praises people for being Stonewall ambassadors.
Involve UK also provides advice to workplaces on "active allyship", "Active Cultural Advocacy", including microaggressions, systemic racism and white privilege, and urges employees to "call out" language not deemed to be "inclusive" enough.
From the frying pan into the fire?
Maya Forstater, the co-founder of campaign group Sex Matters, stressed that such training must reflect the Equality Act 2010, which protects biological sex by law but not gender identity.
She said: "The BBC should beware of signing up to another unaccountable scheme, which might turn out to be Stonewall in all but name."
Kate Harris, the co-founder of the Stonewall breakaway group LGB Alliance, said: "Our concern is that the BBC doesn't jump from the frying pan into the fire. Involve UK takes a similarly controversial approach to LGBT issues as Stonewall."
She added: "Will Involve UK be upholding the right of lesbians to define themselves as same-sex attracted adult human females or not?
"For the sake of the BBC, its reputation and its audience, it must be open about the exact nature of the relationship and how it will safeguard its editorial independence."
Nolan Investigates Stonewall
Available now on @BBCSounds pic.twitter.com/hk7biW9bLU
— Stephen Nolan (@StephenNolan) October 14, 2021
The latest revelations come after BBC staff told Stephen Nolan, the investigative reporter, how they were too "frightened" to speak out on gender issues because of Stonewall's involvement.
Sir John Hayes, the chairman of the Common Sense Group of 50 Tory MPs, added: "It's increasingly clear that Stonewall represents the worst of woke militancy. Organisations are beginning to wake up to that although far too slowly, with many government departments now disassociating themselves.
"For years the far-Left has used 'front organisations' to disguise their intent. Frankly, the BBC should know that."
Mr Sandhu said: "We are delighted to be working with the BBC and helping to support their activity in creating an inclusive environment for LGBT+ employees through our talent development programmes.
"Our primary focus is on advising and assisting organisations to create more inclusive workplaces and we are passionate about promoting role models in business to break down barriers and inspire the next generation of diverse business leaders."
The BBC, which says it will continue to work with Stonewall on relevant projects, has also teamed up with a group called Global Butterflies, which uses a "Genderbread Person" diagram to illustrate gender identity spectrums.
A spokesman declined to say how much the Involve UK partnership cost. They said: "The BBC is fully committed to being an industry-leading employer on LGBTQ+ inclusion and we are proud of our lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans staff.
"We have set out the specific reasons for leaving the Diversity Champions programme and the Workplace Equality Index and we have also been clear we will continue to work with external organisations, including Stonewall, on relevant projects to develop our own policies and practices to support our LGBTQ+ staff.
"As part of this we have partnered with INvolve UK - a global network championing diversity and inclusion in business - to ensure we stay connected to industry best practice."

These LHS Grads are Headed for Careers in Health Care
This initiative is supported by a group of community partners including front row left to right Jeanne Leydon, CEO of Mary Immaculate Health Services; Odanis Hernandez, project manager, LHS; and Susan Almono, assistant director, Merrimack Valley WIB. Back row left to right George Moriarty, executive director of workforce development and corporate relations, NECC, John Silva, president/CEO, GLFHC; Derek Mitchell, Lawrence Partnership; Jeff Riley, Superintendent, LPS, and Michael Fiato, headmaster, LHS.
Northern Essex Community College is a partner in a new pilot program that will prepare 16 Lawrence High School seniors for careers in health care.
Thanks to an alliance between six of the largest health care providers in the Merrimack Valley, these students will have free training for jobs in health care over the summer, jobs waiting for them in the fall, and the opportunity to continue their education, while working in the health care field.
The six health care employers that have made this commitment are Greater Lawrence Family Health Center, Holy Family Hospital, Lawrence General Hospital, Pentucket Medical Associates, Mary Immaculate Health Services, and Home Health Foundation. Each employer will pay for certified nurse assistant (CNA), Home Health Aid (HHA) or medical assistant training for one to four students, starting in mid-June, and provide jobs once the training is completed.
At an event launching the pilot program on Tuesday, June 6, John Silva, president/CEO of GLFHC, shared why his organization felt it was important to support this initiative. "There will always be jobs in health care," he said. "We want you to develop a career, hopefully one you will love."
Once students have completed the initial training and are placed in jobs, they will be encouraged to continue their education in health care. "This is a great opportunity to enter the health care field. The plan is to create a career pathway so you can create long term goals," said George Moriarty, Northern Essex Community College's executive director of workforce development and corporate relations.
Northern Essex Community College will provide the CNA and HHA training and the Lare Institute will provide the medical assistant training. Other partners include the Merrimack Valley Workforce Investment Board, Youth Works, and the Lawrence Public Schools. The Lawrence Partnership facilitated the program.
These recent LHS graduates will be stepping into careers in health care, thanks to a new community partnership.
Lawrence High School has been expanding learning opportunities for students, said Jeff Riley, superintendent of schools, through initiatives such as Early College, work study, internships, vocational learning, and, now, this pilot program. "We want to connect students with the needs of the local workforce."
Recommended by their guidance counselors, students were selected after a rigorous process that included testing and interviews with multiple healthcare employers.
Derek Mitchell, executive director of the Lawrence Partnership, hopes this program will become a model for other programs in other fields.
"This is a pilot program which, if successful, will be replicated in other industries which have workforce gaps and are looking to hire," he said.
To learn more contact Derek Mitchell at dmitchell@lawrencepartnership.org.

Guide to Generation Names: Which Generation Are You?
As generations come and go, the United States of America has defined different groups based upon values, partialities, and traits of their time-period. Because of this, people have begun to identify themselves similarly, whether they are Baby Boomers or Millennials. Still, some people struggle with understanding this vast oasis of these generational characterizations. Learning to take in this mass of information can be challenging, but know that generational names are here to stay. Comprehending generational names really will have an impact on your one way or another.
The History of Naming Generations
Historians believe that generation naming began in the early 1900s. One of the first individuals to coin generations was the writer Gertrude Stein. She gave writers and painters of the 1920s, like Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Pablo Picasso, the name "The Lost Generation". All of these creative men left the comfortable confines of their own countries to become enlightened in the country of France. These artistic individuals were all born around 1900 and were involved in the bitter battlefields of World War I. From Stein's phrase, others hopped on board to define different generations.
Theorists like William Strauss and Neil Howe used their 1991 research to name and identify generations in the 20th Century. This study called "Generations" named individuals who fought in World War II as the "G.I. Generation," or the "Government Issue Generation." The famous newscaster, Tom Brokaw, gave his name for this generation, calling them "The Greatest Generation," which seems to carry more weight involving this time-period and conversation.
What are the 6 generations?
As one of the newest generations, Generation Z is known for heavy media consumption. It is estimated that 41% of individuals born between 1995-2015 consume at least 3 hours online per day. Most of this consumption happens on a mobile device because it was the first place they learned how to use technology on a grand scale. Most Generation Z individuals get their first cell phone by the time they turn 10-years-old. Currently, Generation Z has an age range of 4 to 24 years of age. Generation X parents and a country constantly at war shaped their very existence. They are given other names like the Homeland Generation, iGeneration, and Post-millennials. Of the United States population, they make up 25% of the people.
Generation Y, or Millennials, are known for their media consumption, which involves mainly television. Over the years, Netflix has become more of a staple for these individuals. When it comes to shopping online, statistics say that 32% of Generation Y buys on a computer over a mobile option. With multiple accounts through different social media platforms, Generation Y has a solid online presence. This generation was born between 1980 and 1994. From ages 25 up to 39, Generation Y makes up 95 million people in the United States of America. Other names for this generation include Echo Boomers, Gen We, Gen Y, and Gen Me. The events that shaped this generation include 9/11 and The Great Recession.
From 1965 to 1979, this group of individuals is categorized as Generation X. Ranging from 39 to 53-years-old, Generation X accounts for 82 million people in the United States of America. Much of Generation X's media use comes in the form of magazines, newspapers, radio, and television, where they watch 165 hours on average per month on average. They are also quite knowledgeable when it comes to social media like Facebook. Most spend an hour per day on different social media outlets. Also known as the MTV generation or Latchkey generation, Generation X came about right after the Cold War and can feel lost between two giant generations surrounding them.
The Baby Boomers are the last generation that still has a plethora of individuals that have not perished yet. From 1944 to 1964, the Baby Boomers were born and now are between the ages of 55 to 75-years-of-age. In terms of media use, Baby Boomers are the top consumers of media like television, magazines, newspapers, and radio. Additionally, over 90% of Baby Boomers have Facebook. This generation was born either at the tail end of World War II or just after. They were also a part of the Hippie movement and at the heart of the Cold War.
The next generation, the Silent Generation, was born from 1925 to 1943. Their current age average is right around 80-years-old. Being called the Silent Generation had more to do with what their parents expected of them. As children, the Silent Generation was supposed to be quiet, respectful, and stay out of the way. With most retired at this point, only a few Silent Generation individuals work minimal hours. Even though many in this generation are technology challenged, the Silent Generation had a major impact on music, movies, and politics. It is estimated that there are still 24 million people alive who were born a part of the Silent Generation.
G.I. Generation
The last generation of the 20th Century is called the G.I. Generation, or the Greatest Generation. Born between 1900 and 1924, the G.I. Generation lived through the Great Depression, as well as many fighting in World War II. There are just over 2 million individuals left in the United States of America. A published Washington Post article recently estimated that the last G.I. Generation member will die in 2046, due to medical advances and improved life expectancy.
Why are generations named after letters?
Because the first generation to use a letter was Generation X, the alphabet soon followed. The reason why theorists used Generation X was that it helped identify a generation that had unknown characteristics. Over time, the name stuck with novelists, sociologists, and even the musician, Billy Idol. Generation Y was an easy choice, as it followed Generation X, but Generation Z may signify the end of letters for generations, just like the alphabet ends.
How do generations bank?
From generation to generation, individuals bank different, based on the period they were born. For example, Baby Boomers like to go to branches but are alright with mobile and digital transactions as well. Generation X individuals like to research their financial options online, but they prefer person-to-person transactions. This has a lot to do with loyalty for Generation X. On the other hand, Generation Y cares less about loyal banking, so they shop around and care deeply for quality customer service. They do, however, trust superior brands like Windows, Apple, and Google. Lastly, Generation Z looks to be more conservative financially, looking to stay away from debt, while looking for fantastic debit card options.
What are the next generations going to be called?
As of now, it is unknown what the next generations are going to be called, but one is starting to rise. Generation Alpha is starting to gain traction for babies born between 2016 and 2025. Currently, there are over 2 million individuals born in the parameters of Generation Alpha. Theorists are not starting over in the alphabet, but rather are looking forward to seeing this generation extend into the 22nd Century. Only time will tell if this name continues to connect with what the future has in store.

What starts out looking like a scene from a Wes Anderson film quickly turns into what, as NME points out, could double as a part of Stanley Kubrick's The Shining peppered with bits from A Clockwork Orange—and if you've seen either of those movies, you'll understand why the below Ben Chappell- and Aaron Brown-directed video feels a bit unsettling.
"Four Out of Five" can be found on the just-released Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, which introduces a new sound for the Arctic Monkeys. We recently spoke with frontman Alex Turner to hear all about the album's departure from 2013's AM sound, and you can hear some of what he had to say below.

Army commanders to deliberate on situation in Ladakh at 4-day conference
New Delhi: Top commanders of the Army will extensively deliberate on the border row with China in eastern Ladakh as well as on a slew of long-pending reform measures like cutting down on ceremonial practices and non-military activities to ensure a rational distribution of resources, at a four-day conference beginning October 26, official sources said.
Besides reviewing the security challenges facing the nation, the Army commanders will attempt to finalise various reform measures recommended by separate internal committees in utilisation of resources while at the same time focusing on enhancing operational capability of the 1.3-million strong force, they said.
The conference will be chaired by Chief of Army Staff Gen MM Naravane and all top commanders will attend it, the sources said.
Some of the proposals to be on the table at the conference include discontinuing or at least bringing down the scale of the Army Day and Territorial Army Day parades, cutting down on various ceremonial practices and reducing the number of officers' mess within individual peace stations, the sources said.
Similarly, the top Army brass will also examine a proposal to bring down the number of guards at official residences of senior officials and another one on reducing the number of CSD canteens if several such facilities are operating within one station, they said.
Another proposal on the table for discussion would be to ask various units to cut costs on celebrating Raising Day and Battle Honour Day.
"These proposals have been part of overall reform initiatives in the Army. The proposals are based on several internal studies conducted by separate panels in the last few years to suggest reform in the force," said an official.
"The key idea behind the proposals is to ensure efficient use of scarce resources. The exercise is aimed at ensuring rational distribution of resources," he said.
A number of other proposals will also be discussed at the commanders' conference under the transformative reforms being implemented to make the force leaner and meaner as well as to enhance its combat capabilities.
Last year, the government approved the first batch of reforms in the Army which include relocation of 229 officers from the Army headquarters, creation of a new post of deputy chief for military operations and strategic planning.
The defence ministry has already approved creation of a new information warfare wing in keeping the needs of the future battlefield, hybrid warfare and social media reality.
The Army headquarters had instituted four studies with an aim to boost the operational and functional efficiency of the force, optimise budget expenditure and to facilitate the modernisation process.
The first study on 're-organisation and right-sizing of the Indian Army' was focused on the operational structures to make the force efficient and future-ready by taking into account the operational situation on western and northern borders.
The commanders will also extensively deliberate on the situation in eastern Ladakh, where the armies of India and China have been locked in a military standoff for over five months.
Both sides have held multiple rounds of talks to resolve the row. However, no breakthrough has been achieved so far.
The commanders are also expected to review the overall security scenario in Jammu and Kashmir. PTI

This month we are celebrating pearly whites, and with that comes our patient of the month!
Jack Healy is one of our dapper seniors who this month was in for a dental.
We initially saw Jack for a general check-up, arthritis injection (synovan) and a dental check where a small fracture was noticed. Before we could even think about treating this fracture we needed to check that Jack was healthy on the inside, so we booked him in for a Pre-Anaesthetic blood test. The results came back all normal and shortly after we conducted his dental treatment under Anaesthetic.
Jack was very brave during his stay with us, especially since we ended up having to extract a few teeth. Jack was given pain relief before, during and after his Anaesthetic to ensure he never felt any pain. After a short recovery, he was up and about and looking ready to go home and lie in the sun and grass with his more comfortable and healthy smile!
Did you know that over 85% of cats and dogs over the age of four have some form of periodontal disease; and with that comes not only bad breath, but pain and in some cases, infection. If left, periodontal disease can progress rapidly and the issues associated with it can make your pet pretty unwell.
Luckily, there are many ways owners can help prevent or maintain good oral hygiene from home.
At Carlton Vet Surgery we are all about prevention and will always help out with creating a dental hygiene plan for you and your pet, which may include a scale and polish to help keep things on track.
For starters, here at Carlton we offer free dental checks - this gives us a chance to have a good look at your pets mouth so we can assess if it's time for a clean, polish, extraction or maybe a new diet such as the Hill's t/d or Royal Canin Dental.
Mouths can be very sore when things aren't right - everyone reading this has probably experienced some kind of tooth ache - which is why it's important to maintain good oral hygiene for ourselves and our pets.
After all, having a healthy mouth will help your pet stay happy and healthier for longer - and who can say no to that?!
What can you do from home? Easy - there are a multitude of options available to help you maintain your pets teeth and gums.
After a dental we recommend two post-operative checks: one at day three afterwards and one at day 10 - this is to ensure that the mouth is healing correctly and that there are no signs of irritation.
In some cases, like Jack's, soft foods will have to be temporarily offered - this is to help prevent infection and to let the mouth and sutures have enough time to heal and to allow for any new crowns to set firmly in place.
If you feel that your pet has pretty gnarly 'round the clock' breath, then give us a call or drop in today to book in a Nurse or Vet Dental Check!


Suggesting that a player was not good enough to make the 1927 New York Yankees is hardly an insult. The original Murderers Row is widely considered the greatest club ever to take the field. Spud Davis' first opportunity to break into the major leagues was with the '27 Yankees, and while he did not make that club he did go on to have a very good major-league career, including playing for a World Series winner with the St. Louis Cardinals.
Virgil Lawrence Davis was born December 20, 1904 in Birmingham, Alabama, the son of John and Kate Davis. According to the 1910 census, the Davis family lived in the household of Kate Davis' mother Zillah Schwinn in the Jefferson neighborhood of Birmingham. The household listed ten different people (including Spud's sister, Helen) with six different last names. By 1920 Virgil's family lived in a different household in Jefferson as the step-son of George Hanlin, who by this time was married to Virgil's mother. Whether John Davis passed away or was separated from Kate Davis is unknown.
Davis did not make the roster of the legendary team, but Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis ruled that the Yankees had too many players out on option. Landis then subjected a few of the players, including Davis, to waivers where they could be claimed by another team, and Davis was snagged by the St. Louis Cardinals.
Spud played the 1927 season for the Reading (PA) Keystones of the Class AA International League, an affiliate of the Chicago Cubs. Catching almost every day, Davis hit .308 for the season, his last minor-league action for 20 years.
Davis made his major-league debut on April 30, 1928 as the Cardinals played host to the Reds. He started behind the dish for the Redbirds, opposite Bill Sherdel on the hill. Davis went 0-2 at the plate before Ray Blades pinch hit for him. Davis' next game on May 8 was a 15-4 shellacking of the Phillies in which Davis recorded his first hit, run, RBI, and walk in the major leagues.
After only those two games with the Cardinals, Davis was traded on May 11 to the Philadelphia Phillies with two other players for a package of three players highlighted by catcher Jimmie Wilson. While Davis left the pennant-winning Cardinals for the 43-109 Phillies, he didn't mind the switch, saying many years later that he was happy to go anywhere that he could get a chance to play2 Spud hit his first career home run on with the Phillies on June 8, taking Sheriff Blake of the Cubs deep for a game-winning three-run shot in the bottom of the eighth of the Phillies' 6-5 win. Davis finished his rookie season hitting .280 with three home runs and 19 RBIs for the last-place Phillies, who finished 51 games behind the Cardinals squad he had begun the season with. Davis split the catching duties for the Phillies with fellow rookie backstop Walt Lerian.
Lerian and Davis again split time behind the plate for the Phillies in 1929. Spud appeared in 98 games, hitting .342, his first of seven straight seasons at or above .300 and ten seasons overall throughout his career.
Davis became the Phillies' primary backstop in 1930, not so much because of his play but because of tragedy. Just weeks after the conclusion of the 1929 season, Walt Lerian was killed in Baltimore when a delivery truck jumped a curb at a trolley stop and caught him as it ran into a building.
From 1930-33, Davis was one of the best offensive catchers in baseball, averaging a .333 batting average with ten home runs and 63 RBIs. While the Phillies of this era struggled in the standings (finishing above .500 in 1932 for the only time between 1918 and 1948), the team routinely put up impressive offensive numbers, no doubt helped by playing their home games in the hitter-friendly confines of the Baker Bowl.
Davis had one of his best years in 1933. He hit .349 for the Phillies while playing in 141 of the team's 152 games. Davis' batting average was good enough for second in the National League and third in all of baseball, trailing only each league's batting champ, teammate Chuck Klein in the National League and Jimmie Foxx of Philadelphia's other major-league team. in the American League. Spud's .395 on-base percentage was also second in the NL, again trailing only Klein.
Despite his tremendous success with the bat, Davis was not seen as an exceptional defender. He struggled with weight issues, thus making catching more difficult, and routinely ranked among the league leaders in stolen bases allowed. Likely because of how many runners attempted to steal against him, Davis also routinely ranked among leaders in runners caught stealing. He did lead the league's catchers in fielding percentage with a .994 mark in 1931, committing only three errors and contributing 78 assists from behind the dish.
The 1930's era St. Louis Cardinals have gone down in history as the Gashouse Gang, the scrappy, unkempt squad known for its antics as much as its play. Colorful characters such as Pepper Martin, Dizzy Dean, and Leo Durocher filled the roster. The Gashouse Gang was not just colorful, however- it was really good. The Cardinals won the National League pennant in 1930, and won the World Series in 1931 and again in 1934.
Like many ballplayers, Davis was superstitious. For a few days in July of 1934 he asked pitcher Dazzy Vance to recite a Seminole prayer over his bat before going up to hit. One game when Vance was in the bullpen, Spud went hitless. For the next game, in Boston against the Braves, Vance performed the ritual for Davis before his at-bats in the second and fourth innings, and Davis got two hits. Vance was in the bullpen for Davis' fifth-inning at-bat, and Davis grounded out with two runners on. Seeing that he was likely to come to the plate in the seventh, David begged reserve infielder Pat Crawford to take his bat to the bullpen for Vance to perform the ritual. "Much against his better judgment, (Crawford) carried the Davis war club out to the bullpen for the Vance Seminole medicine.6 Vance willingly quit warming up for a minute, stroked the bat affectionately and muttered the words of the Seminole chiefs. Crawford, feeling very foolish, carried the bat back to the dugout and the happy Davis strode to the plate with the bases filled and whacked a single through the box. Two runs scored on the base hit of the Seminole medicine." Davis had three hits, two RBIs, and scored two runs in the 5-3 Cardinals victory.
Davis caught 94 games for the Cardinals in 1934 but made only two appearances in the seven-game World Series victory over the Tigers, both as a pinch hitter. He singled in both at bats, and following his hit in Game Four was pinch run for by Dizzy Dean. Dean was subsequently knocked unconscious when he was hit in the head by a throw by Detroit shortstop Billy Rogell. Dean eventually came to and started on the mound for the Cardinals the next day.
At the end of the 1939 season Davis was about to turn 35 years old and had not had a particularly successful season since the 1935 campaign in St. Louis. Around this time Frankie Frisch, Davis' old teammate and manager with the Cardinals, took over as the skipper of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Frisch's first move after taking the reins was to purchase Davis from the Phillies.
As a 12-year veteran of the major leagues, Davis had carved out a decent living for himself in Depression-Era America. His 1940 U.S. census record indicates that he earned greater than $5,000 for the year (around $85,000 in 2013 dollars) and that he had other sources of income than just playing baseball. Spud, his wife Helen, and son Virgil, also had a live-in housekeeper, another sign that the Depression was not as severe for the Davis clan as for many American families.
Davis spent two seasons with the Pirates, regaining his .300 form with (hitting for ; note-Davis hit .307 with the Phillies in 1939.) a .326 average in 99 games for Pittsburgh 1940. At the end of the 1941 season he was released from the active roster with the understanding that he would have a role in the organization, whether as a coach, minor-league manager, or scout.10 Two months after his October release Spud was named a coach on Frankie Frisch's staff, a position he would hold through the 1943 season.
In 1944, with the U.S. involved in World War II across Europe and the Pacific, the supply of young men available to play major-league baseball was diminished. As such, the Pirates needed a catcher and found one on their own coaching staff, as Spud Davis strapped on the tools of ignorance once again and resumed his playing career at age 39 after a two-year absence. Appearing in 54 games as a backup to starting catcher Al Lopez, "Old Folks" (as Davis was referred to in the Pirate dugout) again hit over .300, logging a .301 average in 93 at-bats.11 After one more season on the field during the similarly war-affected 1945, Davis retired back to coaching for the 1946 season. It proved to be his last with the Pirates, as Frisch was let go as manager late in the season and Davis served as the interim skipper for the Pirates' last three games.
Davis made one more foray into major-league baseball, joining his old pal Frankie Frisch as an assistant coach when Frisch took over as the permanent manager of the Chicago Cubs for the 1950 season. He remained with the Cubs until the conclusion of the 1953 season, two years after Frisch's departure.
After being let go by the Cubs, Davis retired to his hometown of Birmingham, living on his baseball pension and a bit of money he had saved from his career in the game.13 He was inducted into the Alabama Hall of Fame in 1977. He remained in Birmingham from the time he retired until his death on August 14, 1984 at the age of 79, after which he was buried at Birmingham's Elmood Cemetery.

Q: Scala, Collection.searching with user-defined implicit Ordering[] I need to perform binary search on an array of custom case class. This should be as simple as calling the search function defined in scala.collection.Searching:

As you can see, if the collection on which I call the search method is an indexed sequence, the binary search is performed.
Now, I need to create my custom Ordering[B] parameter and I want to pass it explicitly to the search function (I don't want for it to take any implicit parameter inferred from context).
I have the following code:
// File 1
case class Person(name: String, id: Int)
object Person{
  val orderingById: Ordering[Person] = Ordering.by(e => e.id)
}

// File 2 (same package)
for(i <- orderedId.indices) {
  // orderedId is an array of Int
  // listings is an array of Person
  val listingIndex = listings.search(orderedId(i))(Person.orderingById)
  ...
}

I get the following error:

Type mismatch. Required: Ordering[Any], found: Ordering[Nothing]

So, I tried change the implementation in this way:
// file 1
object Person{
  implicit def orderingById[A <: Person] : Ordering[A] = {
      Ordering.by(e => e.id)
  }
}
//file 2 as before

This time getting the following error:

Type mismatch. Required: Ordering[Any], found: Ordering[Person]

Why does it happen? At least in the second case, should it convert from Any to Person?

A: Follow the type specifications.
If you want to .search() on a collection of Person elements then the first search parameter should be a Person (or a super-class thereof).
val listingIndex =
  listings.search(Person("",orderedId(i)))(Person.orderingById)

Or, to put it in a more complete and succinct context:
import scala.collection.Searching.SearchResult

case class Person(name: String, id: Int)

val listings: Array[Person] = ...
val orderedId: Array[Int]   = ...

for(id <- orderedId) {
  val listingIndex: SearchResult =
    listings.search(Person("",id))(Ordering.by(_.id))
}

A: I'll add a bit just to elaborate about your error. First, please note that Searching.search is deprecated, with deprecation message:

Search methods are defined directly on SeqOps and do not require scala.collection.Searching any more.

search is now defined on IndexedSeqOps. Let's look at the signature:
final def search[B >: A](elem: B)(implicit ord: Ordering[B])

When you call:
listings.search(orderedId(i))(Person.orderingById)

The result of orderedId(i) is Int. Therefore, B in the signature above is Int. The definition of Int is:
final abstract class Int private extends AnyVal

A is Person, because listing is of type Array[Person]. Therefore, search, is looking for a common root for both Int and Person. This common root is Any, hence you are getting this error. One way to overcome it, is to define an implicit conversion from Int to Person:
object Person{
  val orderingById: Ordering[Person] = Ordering.by(e => e.id)

  implicit def apply(id: Int): Person = {
    Person("not defined", id)
  }
}

Then the following:
val listings = Array(Person("aa", 1), Person("bb", 2), Person("dd", 4))
val orderedId = 1.to(6).toArray

for(i <- orderedId.indices) {
  // orderedId is an array of Int
  // listings is an array of Person
  listings.search[Person](orderedId(i))(Person.orderingById) match {
    case Found(foundIndex) =>
      println("foundIndex: " + foundIndex)
    case InsertionPoint(insertionPoint) =>
      println("insertionPoint: " + insertionPoint)
  }
}

will produce:
foundIndex: 0
foundIndex: 1
insertionPoint: 2
foundIndex: 2
insertionPoint: 3
insertionPoint: 3

Code run in Scastie.

It's time to think about how we will implement assisted dying in Scotland - Shona Elliott
The Scottish parliament is in the midst of debating legislative changes that could allow Scots to choose to die for the first time.
By Shona Elliott
22nd Nov 2021, 4:55am - 2 min read
If the Assisted Dying of the Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill lodged by Liberal Democrat MSP Liam MacArthur is passed, it will give some terminally ill adults the right to end their own lives.
This is not the first time Holyrood has broached this divisive issue.
Assisted dying remains a divisive issue in Scotland.
Food hygiene ratings in Edinburgh: the takeaways and sandwich shops which passed inspections in December 2022
Assisted Dying: Scots remain divided over controversial bill to introduce assist...
Similar bills were brought forward by the independent MSP Margo MacDonald and Green MSP Patrick Harvie, but both measures failed to get enough political support and did not become law.
With high profile politicians, such as Ruth Davidson, now publicly supporting a bill they previously opposed, there appears to have been a significant shift in political opinion which could help push Mr MacArthur's bill through.
Even if this bill fails to pass, I think it is extremely likely that Scotland will legalise assisted death for some terminally ill adults in the near future.
Statistics suggest that Scots have long been in favour of this and that it's politicians - not public opinion - who have delayed changes to legislation.
According to Dying in Dignity Scotland, 87 per cent of the country support assisted dying for terminally ill adults. This includes people of faith and people with disabilities.
This is not to say we have arrived as an unanimous moral standpoint on the issue, many still stand firmly opposed to its introduction.
Assisted dying is an inherently emotive topic and I do not believe our society will ever stand in universal agreement.
However, looking at overall public opinion in Scotland as well as trends across the Western world, I find it hard to imagine Scotland's future healthcare system without some form of assisted dying.
With that in mind, I wonder if it would not be more prudent to move our attention away from inconclusive ethical debate and instead turn discourse towards tackling the numerous practical hurdles of implementing a model of assisted dying in Scotland's healthcare system.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles FC has acquired Brazilian defender Danilo Silva on a five-month loan from Internacional.
Silva made five MLS appearances in 2005 with MetroStars under current LAFC coach Bob Bradley before moving back to Brazil. He spent seven seasons with Dynamo Kiev in Ukraine before returning to Internacional last year.
Silva appeared in Champions League matches and won two Ukrainian League titles with Kiev.
His arrival will bolster the back line of LAFC (10-5-6), which has climbed into second in the Western Conference standings in its impressive debut season.
LAFC lost starting midfielder Mark-Anthony Kaye for the season with a broken ankle last week.

W mowie potocznej znane są też inne nazwy i określenia nadawane temu wzgórzu: "Złota Góra", "Zagłębiowska Jasna Góra", "Zagłębiowski Olimp", góra "Tabor" oraz Wzgórze Przemienienia Pańskiego (do XVII w.)

Geologia
Góra Świętej Doroty to ostaniec, stanowi pozostałość progu środkowotriasowego, podobnie jak Góra Gołonoska w Dąbrowie Górniczej (335 m n.p.m.). Wysokość względna progu w jej obrębie to 90 m, natomiast wielkość zrzutu uskoku będzińskiego u stóp wzniesienia wynosi od 150 do 200 m. Szczyt pokrywa warstwa wapienia. Na wschodnich stokach wzgórza zaczyna się krótka i wąska rynna, która uchodzi do doliny pra-Przemszy w Gzichowie. Wzgórze osiadło na skutek szkód górniczych.

Historia
Historia tego miejsca sięga czasów kultury łużyckiej (XIV-III w. p.n.e.), kiedy to na wzgórzu znajdowała się osada mieszkalna i pogańskie miejsce kultu. Udokumentowano grodzisko na wzgórzu pochodzące z wczesnego średniowiecza.

Wzniesienie jest częściowo zabudowane, zwłaszcza od strony południowo-zachodniej (od strony dawnej cementowni). Na szczycie wzgórza usytuowany jest zabytkowy kościółek pw. św. Doroty z 1635 roku.

Grodzisko
Według legend dotyczących początków miejscowości, na wzgórzu Dorota istniało grodzisko. W czasach pogańskich miało być siedzibą jakiegoś władcy panującego nad krainą leżącą pomiędzy Przemszą a Brynicą. Pośrodku grodziska miała stać świątynia, gdzie znajdowały się białe kapłanki pod opieką starca, kapłana. Tutaj zbierała się cała starszyzna na narady, tutaj gromadził się lud na doroczne uroczystości i tu szukał schronienia ze swym dobytkiem, gdy zagrażał najazd wroga. w razie niebezpieczeństwa palono w sąsiedztwie grodziska stos, na znak trwogi.
Grodzisko, prehistoryczne miejsce obronne, ubezpieczone było wysokim wałem, usypane z ziemi i otoczone głęboką fosą, być może z rzeki Przemszy lub Brynicy. Według zapisu w kronice gminy Grodziec z 1934 r., można spostrzec ślady wału ziemnego, otaczającego plac w formie owalnej. Plac w stosunku do wału jest kotliną – szerszą w zachodniej stronie, węższą we wschodniej. Konfiguracja wałów wskazywałaby, że są to ślady legendarnego grodziska. Grodzisko było swego rodzaju strażnicą nad całą okolicą pokrytą gęstymi borami i lasem. Strzegła ona jedynej wówczas drogi, jaką stanowiły nurty zasobnej niegdyś w wodę Przemszy. Wykopaliska znalezione u stóp wzgórza, potwierdzają tę hipotezę.

Ochrona przyrody i turystyka
Część wzgórza (bez części szczytowej) oraz jego okolice objęte są ochroną jako Obszar Chronionego Krajobrazu "Wzgórze Doroty", powołany w 1993 r. Planuje się powiększenie tego obszaru o część szczytową wzgórza. Walorami przyrodniczymi są dobrze wykształcone zarośla śródpolne, tzw. czyżnie, oraz pozostałości muraw kserotermicznych. W drzewostanie dominują brzozy brodawkowate, robinie akacjowe, buki, dęby, jesiony, klony.

Prowadzi tu turystyczny Szlak Husarii Polskiej (czerwony) (pomija jednak źródełko z kapliczką usytuowane na terenach rolnych). W latach przed II wojną światową licznie wędrowali tu harcerze zagłębiowscy, a w ruinach kościoła składali przyrzeczenie harcerskie.
Przez wzgórze przechodzi też europejski szlak Via Regia.

Any kind of item with its benefits and also disadvantages, and in addition to integrated solor LED street lights. If we understand its shortcomings at the start, we can pick much more reasonably.
Presently, there are two main reasons why incorporated solor LED street lights can not be extensively promoted: high prices and unstable quality.
As time goes on, the cost will certainly become reduced and also reduced, yet the origin of the trouble is not that the integrated solorLED street lights will certainly win the marketplace if the cost is as low as an average lights, due to the fact that the integrated solar LED street light is mainly used for federal government job and the govenment highly worry the lighting task top quality.
Integrated solar LED street lights should get on on a daily basis, as well as the lights time is relatively long. If the top quality is bad, not just the citizen are not satisfied, however the administration as well as maintenance of integrated solor LED street lights is also a huge job, so the integrated solor LED street lights requires its lighting ratio to be among the vital specification. Then the following key steps must be taken when the integrated solor LED street lights starts to be acquired.
The first is the light decay test record when buying, which is a crucial component.
When bidding process, every company will offer light decay examination report for various units, and some provide their very own business self-inspection report, however also some third-party screening record. Although the examination causes the report are good, the actual genuine light decay is very different. Everyone recognizes it, so just how can we understand the reality?
The light decay examination report from Designated Authority certified by the Semiconductor Union is qualified. The street lighting made use of by the road illumination has high power and also generates a big quantity of warmth. Two issues can be clarified by light decay examination: light decay certified as well as power supply depends on standard. If a integrated solor LED street lights cannot up to standard in the laboratory, can it still have good performance when traveling?
After passing the light decay test for integrated solar powered street lights residential LED street lights, the framework is a large trouble. This issue is rarely discovered in the sector. This is one of the main reasons why the incorporated solar LED street lights will create large light decay. As most of us understand, the nation's smoke location is so large that it not just creates bodily harm to people, it additionally triggers huge light decay for integrated solor LED street lights, especially in the northern regions where there is much dirt and haze, and after a brief duration of exterior usage, the surface of the whole integrated solar LED street light is covered with dirt and its cooling result is considerably minimized. This is one of the major culprits that integrated solar LED street lights are not known to every person.
Inning accordance with this scenario, the lighting design should be clear. Dual the warmth dissipation location, because there is no solar street light administration division will clean up the radiator in a timely manner, can only rely upon rain rinse in the lasting use, after boosting in location, it also leaves sufficient area to minimize the reliable warm dissipation as a result of air pollution.
There is a barrel result for light degeneration of solar energy light, there cann't have a short board, light degeneration has actually troubled everybody for so many years, the trouble here is that you do a good work of lights radiators can resolve the light degeneration.
No, every person utilized to discuss using low-power chip cannonball-type packages. High-power chips cannot. And also say the chip's power is also big to dissipate warmth, this is not the instance. The COB plan warmth is a lot more concentrated. To address the issue of heat transmission, it can be fully made use of with light weight aluminum brackets or copper brackets. Nevertheless, light degeneration is more difficult to control. The reason is that excellent option of radiator does not necessarily resolve the problem of light degeneration. There is a huge misunderstanding in light source product packaging. Silicon gel of COB light can not be also thick and must be packaged as slim as possible, so about dissipate warm from chip luminescent surface easily. It is the reason why the light decay of the COB light is not well regulated.


The name "home theater" was coined as a direct affront to movie theaters as in, "You can watch at home with the same level of enjoyment as if you were going out to a movie theater." But the reality has always been about comfort and convenience: watching at home means watching what you want when you want. But in order to do that, a big TV with a good sound system is needed. That wasn't so easy to acquire back in the day, but with big screen TVs so reasonably priced, pretty much any room can become a "home theater" and be worthy of the name.
But like any technology that has grown in leaps and bounds, some misconceptions have taken root. These misconceptions about home theater can keep you from enjoying the best picture and sound possible. So lets put a stop to three misconceptions right now.
The brilliance of a HDMI cable is that it can transmit not just high-definition video but multichannel audio as well. This is both convenient (removing the need for separate audio/video cables) as well as practical (since the connection looks unlike others and just works via insertion/gravity rather than any locking mechanism). But while digital ensures that if the cable's wiring is working a picture is seen, the requirements of bandwidth needs today require a high-speed cable. This makes inexpensive models less likely usable and so should be avoided. Additionally, the cost of a HDMI cable can be quantified by its construction — how well it will hold up physically. This means that not all HDMI cables are the same, since the quality of how they are made affects their overall use over time. This can be especially true when greater lengths are needed.
There's no question that a surge protector will help protect electronic devices plugged into the AC line -- the power "grid" is undependable at best and even minor surges can be problematic to electronics depending on electrical power to operate. That includes power "spikes" too — both can cause damage over time (and invisibly). But it's also true that AC power is "dirty" and can negatively impact both video and audio by degrading the quality subtly. To avoid that, a power conditioner will come in handy. What this does is take the AC power and conform and adjust it so that whatever is plugged into it benefits from a stable and "clean" current. This can only improve on the video (i..e., the TV picture) and the audio (i.e., the amplifier, sound bar, etc.). Best part is that you plug your devices into the power conditioner and then forget about it -- other than making some adjustments to the conditioner itself, there's nothing else that needs to be done. And yes the power conditioner has surge protection too.
It's understandable that reading a manual laced with technical jargon can be annoying — pretty much every amplifier (i.e., audio/video receiver) is full of this because there's so many options and adjustments that can be made. But unlike a sound bar, an amplifier can adjust the sound coming from multiple speakers so as to make them provide a balanced sound — basically making the speakers work together. So adjusting the speakers to benefit the listening position makes complete sense — if only it wasn't such an issue to have to adjust each individually. That's where the manual comes in, since most amplifiers include a microphone that, placed at the listening position, works with the amplifier to automatically do the adjusting through a series of tones. It's fast and painless (unless you stay in the room while the tones blast out) and improves on the sound immensely. It should be done.
Having a home theater means that you want the best possible picture and sound that you can get. Eliminating the misconceptions that can keep you from having that is a simple but necessary step that is well worth doing.

Q: Inheriting Generic classes with restricted TypeVar Consider a simple pair of generic classes:
T = TypeVar("T", str, int)

class Base(Generic[T]):
    def __init__(self, v: T):
        self.v: T = v

    @property
    def value(self) -> T:
        return self.v

class Child(Base[T]):
    def __init__(self, v: T):
        super().__init__(v)

x = Child(123)
reveal_type(x.value)

While using T = TypeVar("T") works as expected. The restricted TypeVar as shown yields the following errors:
error: Argument 1 to "__init__" of "Base" has incompatible type "str"; expected "T"
error: Argument 1 to "__init__" of "Base" has incompatible type "int"; expected "T"
note: Revealed type is 'builtins.int*'

Note that reveal_type still works.
Another difference, is that the restricted TypeVar requires the type annotation for self.v assignment whereas the unrestricted does not.
In the full use-case, I actually have Callable[[Any], T], but the issue is the same.
This is with mypy 0.910 and Python 3.9.7.

A: Bounding T to an Union[int,str] should do the job:
T = TypeVar("T", bound=Union[str, int])

class Base(Generic[T]):

    def __init__(self, v: T):
        self.v: T = v

    @property
    def value(self) -> T:
        return self.v

class Child(Base[T]):

    def __init__(self, v: T):
        super().__init__(v)

x = Child(123)
reveal_type(x.value)
y = Child('a')
reveal_type(y.value)

A: This seems to happen anytime you call super() and pass the a generic restricted TypeVar argument to any function not just init. On those cases, I believe we can ask mypy to leave this poor thing as it is, by including # type: ignore in those lines:
   ...
   super().__init__(v) # type: ignore
   ...

It is not so bad as it seems because type checking will still be done on other lines, differently of what would happen if you remove the : T from the parameter on parent function or on the child function (any of those would suffice to suppress complains, but would also stop checking inside those functions as well).

Turks most spending tourists in Greek region: Report
KOMOTINI - Anadolu Agency

Turkish tourists were the highest spending foreign tourists in the Greek border regions of East Macedonia and Thrace in the first three quarters of 2019, according to the Bank of Greece data.
From the start of the year until October 2019, around 700,000 Turkish tourists visited the region and spent €136.8 million ($151 million), which makes €195 per capita.
Bulgarian tourists were second on the list of spending with a total of €117 million, even though the Bulgarian tourist number was 3.5 times higher than the Turks, more than 2.5 million.
The per capita spending of Bulgarian tourists was €43.5.
Romanian and German tourists took the third and fourth place respectively on the number of foreign tourists visiting the region.
Turkish tourists need a Schengen visa to visit the region, while the Bulgarians, Romanians, and Germans do not.
However, Greece's East Macedonia and Thrace region is not far from Turkey's largest city, Istanbul, which even makes a day-trip from the megacity to the region possible.

Most dentists will tell you that fluoride is a necessary part of tooth care, that it prevents cavities and that it's perfectly safe. But a visit to the dentist some years ago had me rethinking the safety of fluoride. We had changed dentists to one who practices both traditional Western dentistry and holistic dental care. He told us that my daughter had fluoride poisoning, thanks to the baby vitamins our pediatrician had prescribed her. He showed us the marks on her teeth – no other doctor or dentist ever mentioned them! The experience made me want to learn about the dangers of fluoride.
Fluoride is not only in toothpaste and baby vitamins. Many counties all over the U.S. fluoridate the water supply too – whether or not you particularly need it. And that begs the question, is fluoride toxic?
Fluorosis, which was what my daughter had.
An effect on thyroid (associated with low iodine levels).
It's uncertain if it affects the endocrine system.
It's also been linked to lower IQs in children as well as poor neurodevelopment.
The question then is, how much is in our water and are we getting too much if we use fluoride toothpaste as well? If your child has problems detoxing, is too much fluoride a cause for concern? Mental Health Daily reviewed currently available research on fluoride, and conclude that very high toxicity levels (far above what's in our water) are clearly damaging, but more studies need to be done on the effects of fluoride.
Finally, the World Health Organization declares that anything below 1.4 milligrams per liter is safe. How much is in your water and how much is in other substances, like vitamins and toothpaste, and do those tip the scales? Naturally, I wondered if you could do without fluoride and still have good teeth.
Is Fluoridated Water Necessary For Good Dental Care?
This article answers the question, how scientists figured out fluoride, in general, was beneficial: "Where the fluoride level was low there was a high prevalence of dental caries, yet where the fluoride level was high there was a low prevalence of dental caries but a high prevalence of dental fluorosis/enamel mottling." Without comment on the pros and cons of correlation-driven studies, it seems that the Cochrane Collaboration report contradicts this.
This is all very confusing. Since one of my children had fluorosis, both have problems detoxifying toxins and all of us otherwise have healthy teeth, we have decided to forego fluoride in our toothpaste.
What Else Is In Your Toothpaste?
Triclosan: This chemical was determined to be toxic enough recently for the FDA to ban it from bath and beauty products, but not from toothpaste. It is in fact found in Colgate Total.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS): There's some controversy on this and EWG's Skin Deep database does NOT list this as a dangerous substance but as a low hazard. It can be an irritant or allergen for some but the real issue is whether or not your toothpaste contains a known carcinogen can sometimes be found with SLS called 1,4-dioxane, a known carcinogen. I'm not sure if toothpaste SLS has this or not, and the pros and cons on SLS looked debatable to me.
Cocamidopropyl Betaine: This chemical got a high yellow rating on Skin Deep and is also an irritant that can cause an allergic reaction.
Polyethylene Glycol: This too can be contaminated with 1,4-dioxane and may have other health concerns.
Microbeads, found in brands like Crest Pro-Health, have used these little toxin-carriers that were banned by Congress last year. They must be removed by summer, 2017, so in the meantime be on the lookout.
These are not all the ingredients in toothpaste, but I won't do an exhaustive search here. Just know that your toothpaste may not be as clean as you'd like in addition to the dangerous fluoride that's included. Keep in mind, too, that small children are warned against too much toothpaste or swallowing it as it can be toxic to them.
So, what's a parent to do? For us the choice is easy. Between having fluoridated water, my daughter's past fluoride poisoning, and issues my children have with properly methylating toxins, we have made numerous changes over the years.
You may be able to do this where you live or buy a test kit.
I always feel like supplements are optional. You should be getting all your required nutrition from your food. Since this was the source of my daughter's poisoning, this area should be one of interest to parents.
Filter fluoride out of your water.
You need to make sure your system can filter out dangerous fluoride. Read about the chemicals in your water and the system we like best to remove it.
Well, actually, you want a toothpaste that is chemical free too – and doesn't taste like yuck.
Pure water is great but mineralized water can help detox your body and provide nutrients.
That's why I was happy to get samples of Dr. Sharp to review and share with you their awesome product. What did I like about it?
Dr. Sharp carries a full line of dental care, including floss.
Their products are free of fluoride, gluten, parabens, alcohol, SLS, GMOs and are vegan.
They make your teeth feel squeaky clean and shiny!
Dr. Sharp's products contain xylitol, which is good for your teeth and may repair enamel and reduce bacteria. However, I did not find a lot of studies that confirm this. If you are not reactive to xylitol, though, I see no reason not to give it a try.
He is a member of Florida Prosthodontic Association (FPA), American Dental Association (ADA), American College of Prosthodontics (ACP), American Academy of Maxillofacial Prosthetics (AAMP), and International Academy of Oral Medicine & Toxicology (IAOMT).
How do you avoid the dangers of fluoride? Which brands do you like the best? Share your best tips on getting your kids to brush and check out my post on teaching good dental care to kids with sensory processing issues.
Hi Gina! This is really important information that needs to get out to more parents.
When I started looking into the issue of water fluoridation, I was shocked by what I found. For example, several years ago, the American Dental Association made an official recommendation that parents not use fluoridated water in infant formula because of the risk of dental fluorosis. But a lot of people – including most pediatricians – don't know that. I'm glad to hear that you're considering a reverse osmosis water filter. That's a good way to get rid of the fluoride. Other effective filter media are activated alumina and bone char. I've written about fluoride and also about different types of water filters on my blog, if you're interested.
And thanks for sharing the information about Dr. Sharp's products. I'll be pinning this post!
Thanks, Marge! I agree. I also just learned about Chromium-6 AND I live in an area that might have lead. Safe, clean water is difficult in the U.S…isn't that crazy? I will check out activated alumina and bone char as well. AND we have hard water – so lime buildup. YIKES. I will definitely check out your blog. Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting!
This is an excellent write up! Thanks for sharing this information, it made the risks of flouride so much easier to understand!
Thank you Spencer! I'm glad you enjoyed the article.
