Original study
Morehen, J. C., Clarke, J., Batsford, J., Highton, J., Erskine, R. M., Morton, J. P., & Close, G. L. (2019). Development of anthropometric characteristics in professional Rugby League players: Is there too much emphasis on the pre-season period?. European Journal of Sport Science, 1-10. DOI: 10.1080/17461391.2019.1695953
Click here for abstract
The pre-season period is regarded as the optimum time to increase training volume to make meaningful changes to body composition for athletes. Despite this importance, there are currently no data quantifying the changes in body composition over this period in both academy and senior rugby league players. Such data may help youth players from gaining mass too quickly and in senior players, if meaningful changes aren't made, time may be better spent developing other key areas of the sport.
Hence, the aim of this study was to: 1) track the changes in body composition during three consecutive pre-season periods in elite academy players, and 2) assess body composition in elite senior players at the beginning and end of a single pre-season period.
Eleven male rugby league academy players (age = 18 ± 1 yr) and ninety-three male first team senior professional players (age = 25 ± 6 yr) had whole body DXA scans to assess total mass, total body lean soft tissue mass, fat mass, and body fat percentage. Players were also weighed and height measured.
Senior players were split into positional groups: fullback and winger, centre, halfback, hooker, prop, back -row.
Academy players
Trivial change in height from start of year 1 to end of year 3 pre-season.
Trivial change in total mass from start to the end of pre-season in either year 1, 2, or 3.
Collectively, this resulted in a small 2.7% increase in total mass from year 1 to 3.
Trivial change in lean mass from year 1 to 3, collectively resulting in a small increase of 4.3%.
Trivial change in fat mass and body fat percentage from year 1 to 3.
Senior players
Trivial changes in total mass, lean mass, fat mass, and body fat percentage from the start of pre-season to the end of pre-season in all players and all positional groups.
With little change in body composition seen in senior players, perhaps time could be better spent on other aspects of the sport to improve playing ability. For example, resistance training could be scheduled 4x/week. Two of those days could be "low" stress days where simple hypertrophy work is performed compared to strength/power work on the other two days. One or both of these "lower" stress gym sessions could be replaced with contact skills, ball skills, or top-up conditioning.
Day 1: Contact/wrestle skills (e.g. underhook fighting, clamping, approach to tackle).
Day 2: Lower-body strength/power.
Day 3: Hypertrophy work for smaller players, top-up offfeet aerobic conditioning for others + ball skills.
Day 4: Upper-body strength/power.
This way, extra time is spent on important facets of the game and will allow you to work more closely with sport coaches, hopefully building a stronger relationship between the S&C and sporting programs.
"The S&C profession is slowly moving away from the idea of lifting is the answer to improving all physical capacities outside the gym. Sure, performing some strength/hypertrophy/power work has its importance, but a heavier emphasis on technical/ tactical and in turn, speed of play, will likely always trump the ones primarily focusing on getting stronger and bigger at the expense of time spent training their sport.
In doing so, we allow ourselves to collaborate to a greater extent with sport coaches and move away from the idea of the S&C coach does their thing and the sport coach does theirs. Rather, it's a joint effort to get the most quality out of each session without hindering the following days practice."

I'm having trouble stopping command line builds. I have a set of 3 command line builds one after the other. My first command line build step is making a call to "docker build -t <image_name> ." For some reason if I try to stop the build via the TeamCity UI, the build step does not terminate. However, when the docker build command finishes, TeamCity does stop the the overall build and prevent the second step from kicking off Does anyone have some insight on this? What is the supported behavoir? Is there a special way I can call docker build so that it properly stops?

A German TV program entitled "Your Cheap Fashion – Our Misery"  has reportedly featured H&M's links to child labour and labour exploitation in Uzbekistan and Bangladesh. According to the report, young 12 year old children work up to 14 hours a day in factories for miserably low wages to supply H&M, which offers its products with slogans like "fashion and quality at the best prices." It is also worth mentioning that the allegedly authoritarian Uzbekistan government makes huge profits from cotton export.
Along with several other major clothing makers, H&M has been criticised for how they treat workers in Cambodia, where hundreds of employees at a plant run by a supplier of the Swedish fashion giant mysteriously passed out in August. On top of this, H&M declared that they no longer use sandblasting to fade their jeans products. However, a new report reveals that regardless of whether a brand has 'banned' sandblasting or not, both manual and mechanical sandblasting is still commonly used. Sandblasting has been proven to cause fatal lung diseases, including silicosis.

Here's the Best Note-Taking Strategies for Each Type of Class
By Michelle Adams | Shenandoah University
Although most of us aren't too fond of the activity, we spend a lot of our time in college taking notes. Whether you're trying to get down everything your professor says in lecture, or you're studying straight from the textbook, here are some of the best note-taking tactics that won't just make it easy for you to review the information: they'll help you learn as you go!
Strategy #1: Outline
Are you taking notes from a textbook or a PowerPoint presentation? Then this is the strategy for you! When the concept you're learning is linear, or involves many headings with several details, outlining keeps you super organized.
At times, however, it can be difficult to outline while keeping up with your professors' lectures, so it may be beneficial to download their visual presentation beforehand, and do a rough sketch of your outline prior to class starting. Alternatively, you can use outlining as a way to study what you just learned by reorganizing your notes into one after the lecture!
A post shared by Klaudia (@sixtyninejournals) on Mar 10, 2017 at 2:22am PST
Strategy #2: Concept Web
Are you talking about a lot of broad, unrelated concepts? Do you think better in abstract pictures than in a linear flow? Try using a concept web!
There are several different ways of creating a web, from literally making circles and connecting them with lines, to just having several "clouds" of thoughts floating around the page. Depending on what works for you, it may be better to do this one on unlined paper, or with several different colors!
The point is that you aren't restricted by the rules of outlining or another method – you are free to connect your concepts however makes sense to you!
A post shared by StudyLikeElle (@studylikeelle) on Feb 24, 2017 at 6:51am PST
Strategy #3: Cornell Method
This is one of the most popular methods of note-taking, and it's often taught in schools and orientation classes as one of the best.
This strategy involves dividing your paper into three sections: first, draw a line near the bottom of the page (leave about five lines of space) to divide your sheet into two parts. Then, divide what is now the top section of the page into two columns, with a thinner one on the left, and a thicker one on the right. When taking notes, you will essentially use the outline method with the big column on the right, and on the left, you'll write key words or questions that you have. This helps you find the information when you need it later. Finally, at the end of the lecture, you'll summarize the page in the bottom section.
This works best if you have a lot of notes - or a disorganized professor - but you still want to outline!
A post shared by jennalice (@litpapers) on Dec 14, 2016 at 6:35pm PST
Strategy #4: Side-By-Side
Perfect for math, language, or music students, this strategy is fairly similar to the Cornell Method, but it's used a little differently.
You'll divide your paper down the middle vertically, and use the two sides together. If you're a math student, you may put an example problem in the left column, and the steps to solving it on the right. If you're in a foreign language class, you may want one column to be translations of the other. Essentially, if you are ever comparing two concepts, or you have a need to draw diagrams on one side that need to be explained on the other, this is a great way to go!
A post shared by chloe✨ 嘉颖 (she/her) (@chloeisntstudying) on Feb 5, 2017 at 12:13am PST
If you prefer to take notes on your tablet or computer, you can still use most of these strategies! With a little set-up, you can make a word processor template with two columns, for the Cornell Method and the Side-By-Side, or use pre-existing templates to make an Outline. There are even programs that allow you to make webs online, or you can get a free-drawing app to work right on your tablet.
Whichever note-taking strategy you choose, make sure you make it personal to you by adding your own shorthand and putting things in your own words, and feel free to adapt any of these tactics to better suit your learning style. Making it yours makes the information a lot easier to remember, and it'll help you make sense of everything when you go back to study for the big test!

Students talk lack of vegan food options
The Torch spoke with four students who aim to maintain their vegan lifestyles
GINA PALERMO
Sophomore Anna Evseev is a vegan and is a disappointed in her lack of food options at the University.
Isabella Bruni, Chief Copy Editor
While St. John's has vegan food options for students, the question remains, how substantial are they?
Vegans do not eat or use animal products and it is well known that people who choose the vegan lifestyle may have a difficult time finding foods they can eat.
Some St. John's students have resorted to finding food off campus to meet their dietary needs. Some have even moved off campus.
"I currently don't live on campus, but my precious two years living in the dorms certainly prevented me from living that lifestyle," Hannah Pruzinsky, a junior physician assistant major, said.
"Sure, it's possible to throw together a jumble of different vegetables at Monty's and occasionally stumble across something good.
However, there's no consistency. Every day you swipe in is a mystery as to what you'll be able to eat, and that's why moving off campus where I wouldn't be locked into a plan came in handy," she added.
In the Marillac Cafeteria, Burger King (veggie burger), Freshens (salad), Subway (veggie delight), 2mato (pasta with marinara sauce) and Sono (rice and burritos) have some type of vegan option.
The D'Angelo Center also has its fair share of vegan food from The One Sushi (sushi), Green Street Grille (veggie burger), Mondo (veggie sub and salads), Tong (steamed rolls) and Salty's Pretzel Place (pretzels).
Montgoris is fairly unpredictable, despite having a vegan station, and the Red Storm Diner can only offer vegans a small salad and just recently a veggie burger.
Being a commuter, Anna Evseev, a sophomore psychology major, finds the lack of options "stressful and annoying" when she's hungry between classes.
Dineoncampus.com tells students what type of food is at locations on campus, but it is not always accurate or does not tell exactly what food is there.
"The school does need a change, I signed a petition last semester [for more vegan foods] and I don't think it went through," Evseev said about not hearing news from the petition she signed.
Sophomore communications major, Talia Nanton, talked about the main dining hall for resident students, Montgoris, and her predictable meal, "I can only get soup or make a salad and that's not enough."
"I've been eating off campus more often since becoming vegan," Nanton, a vegan of three months, said.
"I'm done with being pushy, three months ago I was probably more angry," Ceci Sturman, a junior English and government major, said on her feelings about the few vegan options.
Sturman argues that people with a special diet, like vegan or vegetarian, should not pay the same meal plan prices as other students.
"That's terrible … or even allow us to opt out of paying for the meal plan," she said.
Sturman has also recently found out about the campus dietitian.
"If only her role was advertised better and she had an office in Monty's," Sturman said. "I didn't even know about her until an athlete told me."
Sturman said she thought it was "unfair" that her role isn't advertised more so that students can be able to utilize her.
She added that, "She knew a lot about veganism so it was helpful."

Hall of Fame Inductee: Mark Millon
By Chris Rosenthall | Feb 16, 2022
I learned to play lacrosse in a place we called The Pit, a half-grass, half-dirt practice field at the bottom of the hill behind my old high school. During individual practice sessions at The Pit, I sharpened my attack skills by practicing a series of moves, each one named after the person I'd seen do it so well I had no choice but to try copying and pasting directly into my own game. A quick step just barely above GLE, followed by a low-to-high rip towards the opposite corner? That was my Rob Kavovit, almost always followed by a jog to the softball field to retrieve my ball. Practicing Jesse Hubbards meant running about eight yards upfield, tossing the ball to myself, curling back to the middle and firing an underhanded bouncer, a re-creation of the overtime game-winner that beat UVA for the 1996 NCAA championship.
Finally, I'd jog over to the wing, sprint towards the cage, break my invisible defenseman's ankles with a hard right-to-left split, wrench my back like a golfer and unleash a slap-shot-esque lefty rip with all my might. That was the Mark Millon, the shot that won gold for Team USA back in 1998, puzzled MLL goalies in the early 2000s, and inspired a faithful legion of lefty imposters along the way.
Before we continue, let's clarify something about Millon's game: That shot may be instantly recognizable, but he was far from a one-note attackman: Mark Millon could initiate an offense from any part of the field, and he was downright surgical with either hand. Furthermore, he was especially skilled in the deadly art of the exclamation point dodge, sprinting from X, blowing by his defender and launching a fadeaway jumper, which, like every other shot he took, was unleashed with every single fiber of his being. That being said, his wing dodge was something different - when you saw him pull his defenseman out to the wing like an alligator dragging its prey into the water? You could practically hear that poor guy whimpering for backup.
With an Iversonian motor and seemingly endless ability to bounce back from bone-crushing late body checks, Mark Millon was the gold standard for attackmen who would most likely never find themselves larger than the person hired to stop him. He was a master of stick protection, understanding when and where to accelerate, and manipulating his angles on the field, a man so dangerous it wasn't even considered all that brash that he titled his instructional video "Offensive Wizardry." Not "Helpful Hints," not "Tips and Tricks," but "Offensive Wizardry." It's just the kind of game that Millon had - the man could make magic happen, and with his help, perhaps you could too.
His Bayhawks fell to the Long Island Lizards in the 2001 championship, but in typical Mark Millon fashion, he picked himself up and bounced back with a vengeance, leading the team with 63 points (44g, 19a) and earning the first of back-to-back Offensive Player of the Year honors the following season. When it came time for the championship rematch, Millon dished out the first assist just 22 seconds into the game, scored the game's second goal shortly thereafter, and four goals and an assist later, was named championship MVP in Baltimore's 21-13 victory. Clearly someone who enjoys some good payback, Millon was traded to the Boston Cannons two years later, the 2005 Co-MVP responding by scoring a record 14 points in his first game against his former team. Stepping away as Major League Lacrosse's all-time leading scorer, Millon played his final complete season in 2006, and while he's known for being one of the greatest offensive players the game has ever seen, his legacy has also been secured as one of its most prolific teachers - not only through his signature instructional camps, but through those of us who simply watched his moves and immediately ran outside to break them down until sunset.
Regardless of how the knowledge has been passed down, Mark Millon's influence remains easy to identify all over the modern lacrosse landscape. For every exclamation point from the likes of Jordan Wolf, or ankle-breaking wing dodge from Grant Ament, rest assured that many of today's greatest attackmen began their journeys in similar fashion: All alone on their local fields, just practicing their Mark Millons.

Q: Xamarin Forms iOS UIImagePickerController not shown when called from a modal page (formsheet) I'm currently trying to get this example work:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/app-fundamentals/dependency-service/photo-picker
However on iOS, the UIImagePickerController is not showing up. I already have figured out, that this is because the calling page is a modal page (FormSheet). I set this properties for the modal page.
<Style x:Key="ModalPageStyle" TargetType="ContentPage" BasedOn="{StaticResource DefaultPageStyle}">
        <Setter Property="Shell.PresentationMode" Value="ModalAnimated" />
        <Setter Property="ios:Page.ModalPresentationStyle" Value="FormSheet" />
    </Style>

When I change the page back to a normal page (by removing the Style), the UIImagePickerController works fine. However I need to call it from the modal page.
I already tried to set the root ViewController to fullscreen.
public Task<Stream> GetImageStreamAsync()
        {
            // Create and define UIImagePickerController
            imagePicker = new UIImagePickerController
            {
                SourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.PhotoLibrary,
                MediaTypes = UIImagePickerController.AvailableMediaTypes(UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.PhotoLibrary),
                ModalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationStyle.FormSheet,
            };

            // Set event handlers
            imagePicker.FinishedPickingMedia += OnImagePickerFinishedPickingMedia;
            imagePicker.Canceled += OnImagePickerCancelled;

            // Present UIImagePickerController;
            UIWindow window = UIApplication.SharedApplication.KeyWindow;
            var viewController = window.RootViewController;
            if(viewController.ModalPresentationStyle != UIModalPresentationStyle.FullScreen)
                viewController.ModalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationStyle.FullScreen;

            viewController.PresentViewController(imagePicker, true, null);

            // Return Task object
            taskCompletionSource = new TaskCompletionSource<Stream>();
            return taskCompletionSource.Task;
        }

However the result is the same.
Is there anyway at all to show the UIImagePickerController from a modal page?

A: Thanks to @Cheesebaron I could fix the problem.
This is working on my end.
public Task<Stream> GetImageStreamAsync()
        {
            // Create and define UIImagePickerController
            imagePicker = new UIImagePickerController
            {
                SourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.PhotoLibrary,
                MediaTypes = UIImagePickerController.AvailableMediaTypes(UIImagePickerControllerSourceType.PhotoLibrary),
                //ModalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationStyle.FormSheet,
            };

            // Set event handlers
            imagePicker.FinishedPickingMedia += OnImagePickerFinishedPickingMedia;
            imagePicker.Canceled += OnImagePickerCancelled;

            // Present UIImagePickerController;
            UIViewController currentController = UIApplication.SharedApplication.KeyWindow.RootViewController;
            while (currentController.PresentedViewController != null)
                currentController = currentController.PresentedViewController;

            currentController.PresentViewController(imagePicker, true, null);

            // Return Task object
            taskCompletionSource = new TaskCompletionSource<Stream>();
            return taskCompletionSource.Task;
        }

Thanks for helping out!

Elsa Felicya Gasser-Pfau (* 6. Juni 1896 in Krakau, Grossherzogtum Krakau; † 25. August 1967 in Zürich) war eine Schweizer Ökonomin, Wirtschaftsjournalistin und Managerin.

Frühes Leben
Elsa Felicya Pfau wurde als Tochter des Hersch Ber Pfau in Krakau geboren und wuchs dort auf. Nach dem Gymnasium in Krakau musste sie als Frau, um studieren zu können, 1913 nach Zürich übersiedeln. Sie studierte Rechtswissenschaften und Nationalökonomie bei Eugen Grossmann (1879–1963) und Manuel Saitzew. Sie wurde 1920 oder 1921 summa cum laude zum Dr. rer. pol. promoviert. Elsa Gasser war dann Mitarbeiterin im Statistischen Amt in Zürich. Sie arbeitete ebenfalls als Handelsjournalistin und Redaktorin bei der Neuen Zürcher Zeitung. 1924 heiratete sie Joseph Beat Gasser.

Einfluss bei Migros
1925 lernte sie Gottlieb Duttweiler im Dolder Grand Hotel kennen. Der Kontakt kam durch einen ehemaligen Kollegen vom Statistischen Amt namens Paul Meierhans zustande, und man diskutierte ökonomische Themen. Duttweiler hatte Gassers Artikel gelesen und stimmte mit ihren Meinungen zum Schweizer Detailhandel überein. Zunächst gab Gasser bei Migros ohne Anstellungsvertrag entscheidende Impulse. Von 1932 bis 1958 arbeitete sie als rechte Hand Duttweilers, zunächst als volkswirtschaftliche Expertin und Beraterin, später als erstes weibliches Mitglied der Verwaltung der Migros.

Ende der 1940er-Jahre war sie eine treibende Kraft bei der Einführung der ersten Selbstbedienungsläden 1948 in der Schweiz. Innerhalb kurzer Zeit initiierte sie 1950 die Übernahme der Buchgemeinschaft Ex Libris. Dabei war auch sie es, die sich 1952 dafür aussprach, ebenso Schallplatten in das Sortiment von Ex Libris aufzunehmen. Ebenfalls 1950 gab sie die Empfehlung, neben Nahrungsmitteln auch Gebrauchs- und Haushaltsartikel ins Sortiment aufzunehmen. Gasser stieg bis in die Managementebene des Migros-Konzerns auf und war dort lange Zeit die einzige Frau. Sie sass in der Leitung der Stiftung Im Grüene und der Gottlieb-und-Adele-Duttweiler-Stiftung. 1957 bis zu ihrem Tode 1967 wirkte sie in der Verwaltung des Migros-Genossenschafts-Bundes. Sie verfasste zahlreiche Zeitschriftenartikel zu den Themen Konjunktur, Preisentwicklung, Detailhandel und industrielle Beziehungen.

Auch in der Publizistik bei Migros war Gasser als Autorin beteiligt. So half sie Duttweiler als unterstützende Ghostwriterin oft beim Verfassen der Texte.

Duttweiler bezeichnete Gasser als geistige Mitbegründerin von Migros.

Q: Bijectivity of sinx on the interval $[-\pi, \pi]$ to $[-1, 1]$. how can I prove that sinx is a bijective map from the domain $[-\pi, \pi]$ to the co-domain $[-1,1]$. I had no problem proving that using the graphical representation of sinx, but rigorously could not.
Any help

A: $\sin$ is not a bijective map from $[-\pi, \pi]$ to $[-1, 1]$. If it was, then $\forall a,b \in [-\pi, \pi]$, $\sin(a) = \sin(b) \implies a = b$. However notice that $\sin(-\pi) = \sin(\pi) = 0$ and $-\pi \neq \pi$. Therefore we have a contradiction.
Restrict yourself to $[-\pi/2, \pi/2]$ and then you have bijectivity.

A: Let $f(x)=x/2$ from $[-π, π]$ to $[-π/2,π/2]$is a bijection.
Let $g(x)=sin x $ from $[-π/2,π/2]$ to $[-1,1]$ is a bijection.
Taking composition of these two function.
The required function is $h(x)=sin(x/2)$.

A New Northwest Passage
3rd & 4th September 2016, by Meret:
-The last two days are a jumble in our minds and have been quite an adventure, so we're doing a joint report. –
It all began with a thick white blanket covering our boat: it had started to snow during the night. It was a very wet snow. It stuck to our cockpit cover and had to be cleaned away every ten minutes in order to see out the front. It was perfect for writing good morning messages for the kids in it. Once they were up, they were so excited they instantly made a snow owl. Noé explains in more detail: "It wasn't really a snow owl or a snow man, it was kind of both. Mmmmh… maybe a snow m-owl." By the time they had a break from school most of it had melted away again and they spent their time looking for the last few patches of snow to make snow balls to throw at me.
We had gotten an email from the Russian ice breaker Sea Adventure saying they had encountered larges ice flows to the South of Crown Prince Frederik Island. They had even seen polar bears on some of them. As tempting as it was to see polar bears again, we decided to avoid the large chunks of ice, we weren't an ice breaker after all. So we went around the North of Crown Prince Frederick instead. There were still some large pieces of ice in the North but they were few and far between. At first we hugged the coast but there we ran into another problem, the depth was way off. Where there should have been at last 30 meters there were 15. 15 meters started to get a little uncomfortable for our liking. Further more we had 4 different times for tides and had no idea what influence they would have on the currents or how strong these currents would be. After matching the time zones Dario found that two were about equal, so we went with that time as our reference. Sea Adventure had also told us they had encountered 2/10 of ice at the entrance of the strait. 2/10 is the upper limit of what you want to sail through, more gets pretty tricky. As we approached we could see ice of all varying sizes and it looked like a fair amount. All on deck it was quite fun navigating through the ice all together. "Rächts!" – "Guet so?" – "Nei, nochli! Jo, so each guet!" ("Right!" – "That good?" – "No, a bit more! Yep, that's good!")
Salina spotted a seal, so we zigzagged our way closer. It was big and fat and didn't seem bothered by us at all. Later we also saw another smaller one and some whales.
In Nome we had organized an ice pole to push away the ice if need be. We hadn't use it yet but decided now was the moment to try it out. Salina, Andri and I got ready with the pole. The piece of ice was approaching our bow on port. The pole is aluminum, 4 meters long with a pointed end. It was heavy and we got the angle completely wrong. The pole just scrapped over the top of the ice without moving it away from the boat at all. Dario quickly managed to avoid it, only just. The next one was getting closer. Having learnt our lesson we angled the pole better during the approach. And we managed to push the ice block away. But it took all our weight against the pole push it back and away from the boat. In the end we had to watch out the pole didn't pull us overboard.I'm sure in an emergency we'd be grateful to have it but it certainly isn't easily maneuverable. Reacting quickly or switching it from port to starboard, would have been difficult.
At some point it seemed we had made it through but alas a few minutes later we were heading strait for another wall of ice. On the mast Christina and Sabine tried to see openings but it was cold up there. So Instead we positioned one on the helm and one on the bow. Now, we were heading straight for Mocklin Island, a shallow area around an island and multiple rocks sticking up. The new challenge was to navigate through maze of ice and still manage to avoid this area. For an hour it looked tight, Cornelia at the bow and Christina by the helm relayed back and forth tirelessly during this time to get us past Mocklin without getting stuck in the ice. As we ate a quick dinner, we could see we had made it. The ice started thinning as Salina dressed up warmly to take on her first night watch, it was Christina's chance to get some sleep. Yes, indeed it was getting dark and there was still ice. We had all paired up, doing a night watch alone in the ice was not an option.
As I came on deck, Salina and Cornelia told me there wasn't much ice anymore. I was glad because I wasn't looking forward to ice in the dark. Salina wanted to go up front for a while, so I took my place by the helm. It didn't take long and we were back in the ice. By now it was almost dark and the darker it got the more ice there was. The ice blocks that had been so beautiful during the day became menacing objects coming towards us seemingly out of nowhere. Sabine took over Salina's spot at the bow. I was helming now to be able to react instantly. Dario had taken his usual spot at the chart table by the radar. He could see the bigger pieces of ice on the radar but only if they were either to the right or left of us. The ones dead center weren't visible as the signal of the radar was blocked by the mast and the stays. So I ended up helming this way and that to make sure we could see those too. Up on deck fog had rolled in and Sabine and I could barely make out anything. Sabine would see the ice bergs last minute, when it was almost too late to react.
For a full three hours, we had a constant stream of ice bergs coming at us. It was like a mine field and we had no intention of ending like the Titanic. None of us had slept yet and it was extremely tiring being so alert the whole time.
Sabine, who was sitting at the bow during this dark and foggy night, said it was like a nightmare roller coaster ride, where you can't tell what is up and what is down, it's all just one big blur.
Dario described this way: It was like a computer game, where you have enemies coming towards you and the further into the game you get the more enemies come at you and the faster they approach.
I knew, that whatever I saw from the helm, I'd see it far too late to react, so I blindly trusted and followed Dario and Sabine's instructions. But without any reference point to look at it was hard to stay on course, a few seconds trying to understand what Sabine was calling out and I was off by a critical 5 degrees. We had one very near miss but eventually we got out of the ice. Phew! Sabine and I decided to wake the other two, that had gotten a few hours of sleep now. There was no point in falling almost falling asleep on the bow and at the stern, better we get a few hours of sleep too and then swap with Christina and Cornelia again.
As we came down below, Dario showed us the ice chart he had only just managed to download. Victor had sent it earlier that day but it had taken a long time for us to download the large file. On it we could see exactly how we had unknowingly navigated directly into the area with the most ice. We had gone through 2/10 of ice at night at almost new moon in the fog, we couldn't have planed it any better if we had wanted to.
I got maybe two, two and a half hours sleep, then Dario woke me to come take over from Christina. The ice had mostly cleared and we had gotten 20+ knots of wind. A little later we entered the Labrador narrows, the last most challenging part of the Fury & Hecla Strait. We had timed this, so we would transit it during daylight an after the nights navigation, seeing well was a very welcome change.
All of us were on deck again apart from Dario, who was still navigating. He had not slept at all that night. We knew we had to be quite fast to make it through the narrows with the tide with us. As we approached there was still the odd piece of ice but it was easily avoided. The brown rocky coast of Baffin Island and Melville Peninsula were covered in a dusting of icing sugar-like snow. The cold wintery atmosphere made us feel like we should start singing Christmas carols. Knowing we were tight on time we set the Genoa and with no main instantly heeled over. The wind gusts, whistling through the valleys we passed, suddenly hit us and we had up to 30 knots (usually we would not have the Genoa sail out in such high winds but we had to keep our speed up). The tide still with us, we were rocketing along at 13.5 knots, 7-8 of those knots were thanks to the current. Now, Dario's rafting guide experience came in handy once again. While in the Bellot Strait we had purposefully used the eddies, now we were purposefully avoiding them. The wind coming more and more from the front, was making us adapt our course more and more towards the mainland. This is where the eddies were and around Cape Lilly there was even a counter current along the shore. Coming from an 8 knot current into a much slower current or even a counter current would cause the boat to tip, as any kayaker would surely know. The toe rail already close to the water we wanted to avoid this. Luckily, the counter current was easily spotted by the different waves. So once again made it through in the nick of time. High tide was at 12:58pm UTC, we got through at 12:56. It's hard to put into words what we felt at that moment. But I can say it was huge relief to have made it through. We all congratulated each other and had a chai and a Nutella-filled tortilla wrap in celebration. We had made it through the Fury & Hecla Strait!!! This makes Pachamama the first boat to take this route through the Northwest Passage. Of course we still have to make it out of the Arctic circle and the out of Hudson Bay thought the Hudson Strait. But it's looking pretty good and it's all very exciting. We have to say a big thank you to Victor for suggesting it in passing. It became 1st time possible this year to sail through it, because of climate change. A huge thank you and mention also goes out to Eric from Vagabond, as they were the first sail boat to go through the strait 3 days before and gave us lots of tips.
That evening we got to Igloolik and were instantly welcomed by multiple boats of fishermen and hunters. We showed them our boat and then all fell into bed exhausted from the past few days.

The Borough of Island Heights is a unique archaeological site being the second highest point of land on the entire Atlantic seaboard south of the Atlantic Highlands (near Sandy Hook).
Island Heights takes its name from two sources: it originally was an island. It is situated by a steep bluff rising 60 feet above the Toms River. It was originally known as Doctor Johnson's island, being included in the patent granted to him in 1680. In the century before the American Revolutionary War, it was known as Dillon's Island, probably for James Dillon, a prominent man in Toms River.
The Island Heights School District. located at 115 Summit Ave, serves public school students in Kindergarten through sixth grade. Public school students in seventh through twelfth grades attend the schools of the Central Regional School District.
The John F. Peto Studio Museum preserves this famous artist's house and studio in Island Heights. Built in 1889, the house was mostly designed by the artist and remained in his family for over 100 years. The house has been furnished to appear as during Peto's residency around the turn of the 20th century, and features reproductions of his paintings.

Indonesia Condemned Over Schapelle Corby Case
A short independent film has today been released which condemns Indonesia's imprisonment of Australian, Schapelle Corby, as unlawful under both Indonesian and international law.
Schapelle Corby: Still Imprisoned in Indonesia
(PRWEB) August 8, 2008
Miss Corby was sentenced to an unprecedented 20 year prison term in 2005 for importation of marijuana, and is still imprisoned.
The film identifies various breaches of Corby's legal and human rights, both before and during the trial. It cites specific aspects of this, and examines some of the external pressures applied to the court itself. It also points out that the drugs she is alleged to have carried had a far greater value in the country of departure than in Indonesia, hence eradicating any semblance of a motive.
It also highlights the refusal of the judiciary to accept Corby's pleas to have the evidence (marijuana) fingerprinted and forensically tested for country of origin, either of which could have immediately cleared her of any involvement. The evidence was subsequently destroyed by court order, which prevents its future use on her behalf.
The video, which is titled 'The Schapelle Corby Nightmare' can be viewed on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YR_lFMGo6H0). It is also now available from several Schapelle Corby support sites, including the independent UK based international site (http://www.schapelle.net/videos.html), which produced it.
The production team plans a series of additional films for international distribution, which will highlight further harrowing aspects of this case, and subsequent disturbing events. For more information contact prw @ schapelle.net.

So happy that I made the decision to purchase this set. I have not laundered this set yet but I don't forsee any issues since the stitching appears pretty well done. Love the new look!
Loved this item! It's light and bright. The only negative is that it doesn't fully cover the twin bed. I just position it so it correctly shows on one side.
"Does this have grey in it or is it more taupe/brown?"
It is more of a Taupe Brown.

Does Rain Affect Electric Car Charging?
Athina Eleftheriou
As the UK battles through storms Dudley, Eunice and Franklin, all in one week, we're finding more and more people asking the question "Can I charge my electric car when it's raining?"
The short answer… ABSOLUTELY.
We're all lead to believe that… Water + Electricity = BAD and rightly so, but there is an exception when it comes to electric cars.
Many people believe you could get electrocuted charging your car in the rain. More worryingly, three-quarters of electric car drivers have used domestic multi-socket extension leads to charge from the mains inside their house.
To guarantee the safest and most effective charge, you will need a home charging point, installed by a fully qualified professional, like the team at McNally EV!
Outdoor charging points are waterproof and are designed to be used in any kind of weather – we live in the UK after all where we can experience all four seasons by 5pm, so you can rest assured that your car can be charged safely and securely. Day or night, rain or shine.
Your outdoor charger will be attached to an external wall, with all cables and connecting points fully protected against any weather condition. Charging points are also designed to not produce electrical current until the charger is fully plugged in, meaning there is no risk of electric shock when charging your car in wet weather!
All of McNally's EV chargers are handpicked by our team of experts – we use only the highest quality and safest chargers in the industry, which are then installed and by our qualified installers who will talk you through exactly how to use every aspect of your new charger, including the app.
For more information on our charging points, and how we can benefit your home, office or fleet, get in touch with our friendly team of experts who will assist you through every step of your EV charging journey.

Kimberley Coke
This is my story...
A high-flying mother-of-two has told how her confidence was shattered when her hair fell out following the birth of her second child.
Kimberley Coke began losing large clumps of her hair in her morning shower following the birth of her child
The 35-year-old works as a restaurant concierge, booking tables for wealthy clients at some of the most famous restaurants in the world
She said: "Image is important in my job and I was really worried about returning to work with my hair so thin and lacklustre."
Celebrities who have recently suffered pregnancy-related hair loss include Abbey Clancy and Cheryl Cole;
Kimberley restored her hair by taking GROW by Hair Gain, a new supplement with a unique formula derived from organic pea shoots
Kimberley Coke, 35, began to lose large clumps of her hair after she stopped breast-feeding her five-month-old son Jonah.
She would brush out large quantities of hair after her shower each morning and her hairline became noticeably thinner.
Kimberley works as a restaurant concierge in London, booking tables at some of the most famous restaurants in the world for wealthy clients.
Her hair loss happened just a few months before she was due to return to work - and she was worried how this would affect her self-confidence.
She said: "Image is important in my job.
"I am booking the very best restaurants in the world for elite clients. They are the kind of tables where there is a waiting list for months if you have not got the right connections.
"I am out all the time meeting clients and it is vital that I look my best.
"My hormones were all over the place after having Jonah, so to add hair loss into the equation so soon before I returned to work was an absolute nightmare. I was really worried about going back with my hair so thin and lacklustre."
Kimberley, of Apsley, Herts, began taking GROW by Hair Gain - a new supplement derived from organic pea shoots, which restores shine and vitality to hair and makes it visibly fuller and thicker in just one month.
She said: "I was prepared to try anything because I was so worried about my hair. I had always been very lucky with my hair before having Jonah.
"It has always been very full and thick and I have often got compliments about my lovely long, blonde hair.
"So to see it so thin particularly at the front, and to be greeted each morning with fresh clumps of it falling out after my shower, was very depressing.
"I started taking the supplements and within a month I could see the difference and after three months it was just like it was before my pregnancy. I was stunned at the difference and I could feel my self-confidence surging as I prepared to go back to work."
Kimberley had no problems with post-partum hair loss following the birth of her first child Finlay three years ago.
All seemed fine, too, after Jonah's birth in October last year - until she stopped breast feeding.
She said: "I know post-pregnancy hair loss is a big problem but I hadn't given it a thought before the recent problems. I had been fine with Finlay."
"I breast fed Jonah immediately after the birth but I wanted to switch him to a bottle in the months leading up to my return to work."
"As soon as I stopped breast feeding my hair began to fall out. At first it was quite slow and then great clumps were coming out in my brush after my shower in the morning."
"There was a hormonal change in my body after I stopped and this affected my hair."
"It wasn't just hair loss - my hair became thinner and lank. It lost all of its natural sparkle."
"I was struggling at the time to return to my pre-birth weight. When you add a return to work into that mix, it all adds up to a lot of stress. I wasn't in a good place."
Kimberley researched a range of remedies online before another mum recommended GROW by Hair Gain after it restored her hair's strength and vitality following the birth of her son.
Kimberley explained: "My friend was a mother the same age as me with a baby son. Exactly the same thing had happened to her - she'd lost stacks of hair and her confidence was reduced to zero. "She is a health expert and found a supplement that could really make a difference. I am so lucky to have found a product which worked for me."
Kimberley's husband Jon, 35, director at a private school, is delighted her hair problems have been sorted.
She said: "Jon is a very supportive husband and obviously he was worried about me when my hair started falling out."
"He really encouraged me to be positive and pro-actively find a solution. He loves the fact that the old me is well and truly back."
A number of celebrities have spoken recently about their pregnancy-related hair loss.
Model Abbey Clancy, 32, wife of ex-England footballer Peter Crouch, began losing her hair while pregnant with her third child Johnny and she has continued to lose it since his birth in January. She said: "It does knock your confidence."
Cheryl Cole, 35, suffered post-partum hair loss following the birth of her son Bear in March 2017 and used supplements to help it to regrow. She said: "I had a bit of hair loss after pregnancy and supplements have really helped with that."
Around eight million women in the UK suffer from hair loss at some point in their lives - including 300,000 like Kimberley who have post-partum loss in the first five months after giving birth.
GROW by Hair Gain contains powerful phytonutrients which can deliver fuller, thicker hair in just one month for women suffering hair loss for a number of reasons - not just after pregnancy but due to stress, nutritional deficiencies, changes in metabolism and over-styling.
It is the only vegan, vegetarian and Halal approved hair growth supplement on the market.
GROW has been developed by a mum who went through the trauma of post-partum hair loss herself.
It has been scientifically formulated using vitamins, minerals, botanicals and aminos needed for healthy hair growth.
Now Kimberley cannot wait to return to work.
She said: "I love my boys to death but I have really missed the restaurant scene. It will be fab to return with my hair back to its best."
