Reporting & Surveillance Hotline
An infectious disease epidemiologist is available 24/7/365 to answer questions and accept notifiable condition reports.
Zika is the virus that causes Zika virus disease. The virus is mainly spread to people through the bite of an infected mosquito. It can also be sexually transmitted. Only certain kinds of mosquitoes are able to transmit the virus. About four out of five people infected with Zika virus will have no signs or symptoms of illness. The people who do become ill may have fever, rash, joint pain, or conjunctivitis (red eyes). Symptoms are usually mild and last from a few days to a week. It is rare for a person with Zika virus infection to become severely ill or be hospitalized.
Zika virus infection can cause birth defects or miscarriage in some pregnant women who are exposed early in their pregnancies. There have also been reports of Guillain-Barré syndrome following Zika virus infection. Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare but serious disorder that affects nerves and can cause a number of complications including paralysis, respiratory distress, and rarely death.
Activity in New Mexico
New Mexico has had no reported cases of Zika virus disease in 2019.
There were no reported cases of Zika virus disease in New Mexico in 2018 or 2017 and 10 reported cases of Zika virus disease in 2016. Of the 10 cases in 2016, all were in travelers who were infected abroad and diagnosed after they returned home.
2016 Case Counts by County
Bernalillo - 4
Chaves - 1
Curry - 1
Doña Ana – 1 (this person was not in Doña Ana County during the part of his illness when he could infect any mosquitoes or people)
Sandoval - 1
Santa Fe - 1
Socorro - 1
UPDATED: July 17, 2019 — Zika case data is updated on Wednesday afternoons.

Zika virus infection is mainly acquired through the bite of an infected mosquito. The mosquitoes are infected by feeding on a person who has the virus. There are only two kinds of mosquito in the United States that are able to transmit Zika virus: Aedes aegypti (the yellow fever mosquito) and Aedes albopictus (the Asian tiger mosquito). These mosquitoes are also capable of transmitting other diseases to people, such as dengue and chikungunya viruses. These two species of mosquitoes like to live near people, either indoors or outdoors, and mostly bite during the daytime. They can sometimes be distinguished by their bold black-and-white markings, which are different from the gray or brown color of most other kinds of mosquitoes.
Aedes albopictus
NOTE: If you have seen black and white mosquitoes that bite during the day in New Mexico, take a clear photograph and email it as an attachment to us at our doh-zoonoses@state.nm.us address. Please be sure to include when and where you saw the mosquito.
Mosquito bites are the main way that Zika virus is transmitted. It can also be transmitted from a mother to her fetus during pregnancy or to her baby at the time of delivery. There have been no reports of infants becoming infected with Zika virus through breastfeeding.
Zika virus can be spread through blood transfusions. Because of this, American blood banks screen donated blood and may defer certain people from donating. There is also a risk of Zika virus transmission through sexual contact. Visit the Interim Guidance for Preventing Sexual Transmission of Zika Virus page to see the latest CDC recommendations for the prevention of sexual transmission of Zika virus.
Are New Mexicans at Risk?
The two mosquito species in the United States that can transmit Zika virus have been found in some parts of southern New Mexico. If a person gets infected with the virus while in an area with Zika virus transmission and then goes to a part of New Mexico where Aedes aegypti or Ae. albopictus mosquitoes are present, those mosquitoes could become infected with the virus by biting the infected person and could then spread the infection to other people they bite. To prevent this from happening, the New Mexico Department of Health recommends that anyone who has traveled to a Zika-affected area in the previous two weeks protect themselves against mosquito bites by following the precautions listed below.
Protection against Mosquitoes at Home and Abroad
Visit the CDC Zika Virus Travel Information page for up-to-date information about where Zika virus is present. People can protect themselves from Zika virus and other mosquito-borne diseases by following these prevention suggestions:
Use an EPA-approved insect repellent. Make sure to follow the instructions on the label so that you use repellents safely.
The following active ingredients provide the longest-lasting protection:
DEET (up to 30%)
Oil of lemon eucalyptus
Para-menthane diol
Visit the following resources to learn more about insect repellents.

Anyone with thoughts about the city's plans to rezone the Royal B.C. Museum, to allow for expansion, can express them at a public hearing tomorrow (May 26).
The rezoning would allow the museum to double its floor space to expand its collections and exhibition room.
The proposal includes building a new 16-storey tower to be leased as commercial office space, as well moving the St. Anne's schoolhouse.
The plan also entails building a 300-stall underground parking lot, less than the standard generally required.
"Rezoning is critical for the long-term care and preservation of the museum's collection," said Royal B.C. Museum CEO Pauline Rafferty.
The public hearing takes place in City Hall council chambers, starting at 7:30 p.m.

Adapting My Weather Impacts Decision Aid (MyWIDA) to Additional Web Application Server Technologies
ARL-TN-0688
Jacob C Randall and Jeffrey O Johnson
My Weather Impacts Decision Aid (MyWIDA) is a software system that evaluates environmental impacts on air and surface combat systems using weather forecasts. The program ingests forecast data and references combat system environmental thresholds to determine and display the relevant impacts. MyWIDA is currently deployed on Oracle's Glassfish application server and uses Hyper Structured Query Language (SQL) Database (HSQLDB) for its database. The program is being converted to allow it to also be deployed on RedHat's JBoss application server while using Oracle's database system. One of the drivers of this conversion is that it would allow MyWIDA to be seamlessly integrated into the weather component of the Distributed Common Ground System – Army (DCGS–A), a multifaceted intelligence software suite that is a US Army program of record. All modules of MyWIDA were successfully deployed on the new application server, with modified build scripts and updated web.xml files implemented. Further, the database was created successfully in Oracle after extensive editing of the scripts used with HSQLDB. Finally, Oracle database was fully integrated into MyWIDA, enabling the program to run on any combination of application server (JBoss or Glassfish) and database (HSQLDB or Oracle).

Home Business India: Mumbai lockdown spells trouble for businesses | Business| Economy and finance...
Rakesh Kumar Nayal runs a grocery retailer throughout the suburbs of Mumbai, a retailer the 55-year-old has been working for the ultimate 18 years.
"The enterprise is down by 25%," he acknowledged. "Solely these people who've our cellphone numbers place orders with us, others are using on-line firms like Grofers and D-mart. I've 5 staff and 4 hours of operations don't justify their wage or our payments. Typically the police moreover harasses us to shut the shop. We convey our shutters down and do our enterprise on this congested and airless retailer. It's slightly troublesome."
A lot of of retailers in Mumbai, India's financial capital, face comparable challenges. Worst-hit by the lockdown are outlets that deal in non-essential firms, as they aren't even allowed to open the least bit, even for 4 hours.
The $300-billion-strong (€250 billion) Maharashtra financial system went proper right into a weekend lockdown on April 4 with a night curfew, adopted by a whole lockdown launched on April 14, in an attempt to regulate the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic which is ravaging the nation.
Later the federal authorities launched that solely vital firms outlets will in all probability be allowed to open, from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m., which suggests that each one totally different firms, along with malls, multiplexes, spas, golf tools, consuming locations, bars, and sweetness parlors will in all probability be totally shut.
Effectively being Minister Rajesh Tope simply currently launched that these restrictions are extended till May 15, to "break the chain" of the COVID-19 virus throughout the state.
Lodges and shopping for malls have been shuttered for months, with literal monetary assist
Service sector going via grim future
Kumar Rajagopalan, CEO of the Retailers Affiliation of India (RAI), believes the federal authorities must allow the home provide of non-essential firms to retain some consumption and preserve these firms going.
"Residents moreover need non-food devices, amongst totally different points, every day and could also be succesful to have entry to these desires with out hardships," Rajagopalan suggested DW. "How is the federal authorities going to assist the non-essential firms financially?"
Kamal Gianchandani, president of the Multiplex Affiliation of India, wrote a letter to the chief minister of Maharashtra saying that, with no revenue coming in for eight months, coupled with the meager revenues accrued throughout the 5 months after reopening, the cinema enterprise was now going via doable bankruptcies.
"The multiplex sector was the hardest hit throughout the first part of lockdowns and is as soon as extra going to be badly impacted throughout the second part," Gianchandani acknowledged.
Malls and inns face comparable points. "Nearly 35% of inns and consuming locations keep shut throughout the state due to remaining 12 months's lockdown," recognized Pradeep Shetty, senior vp on the Lodge and Restaurant Affiliation of Western India (HRAWI). "The turnover of the remaining establishments is below 50% in opposition to pre-COVID-19 ranges. With the newest lockdown order, on the very least one different 30% of consuming locations will shut down utterly."
Gurvineet Singh, CEO of the Viviana Mall, says the Maharashtra malls have been the ultimate to be opened throughout the nation after the first lockdown, which lasted 5 months. "Now we have been merely recovering from the first wave then the second wave obtained right here in. Now we have now certainly not obtained any help from the federal authorities the least bit," Singh suggested DW.
Your total service sector in India has struggled under the lockdown measures
15% dent in India's GDP
Maharashtra is the richest state throughout the nation, based mostly on its Gross State Dwelling Product (GSDP), and represents spherical 15% of India's entire GDP. Mumbai-based rating firm Care Scores projected that spherical $5.4 billion of GDP is being misplaced in every month of lockdown.
Studying the impression of a doable nationwide lockdown, Monetary establishment of America Securities has printed a phrase written by Indranil Sen Gupta and Aastha Gudwani which says "a month of nationwide lockdown costs 100-200 basis elements (bps) (1-2%) of GDP. This poses a 300 bps (3%) risk to our 9% precise GDP growth forecast for FY22."
Asia-Pacific Financial Institutions, S&P has moreover reported that controlling the pandemic stays a key risk for the Indian financial system. "The impression of nationwide lockdowns on the financial system, counting on their measurement and scope, might probably be substantial," the report acknowledged.
Nevertheless, following Maharashtra, many states throughout the nation have launched a whole or partial lockdown to comprise the virus. For now, it's clear that the revival throughout the Indian financial system has been disrupted by the second wave of the coronavirus. It remainsto be seen how the Indian authorities will take care of the record-breaking caseload surges and the decelerating financial system.

Q: Integrability of Thomae's Function on $[0,1]$. Consider the function $f: [0,1] \to \mathbb{R}$ where
f(x)=
\begin{cases}
\frac 1q & \text{if } x\in \mathbb{Q} \text{ and } x=\frac pq \text{ in lowest terms}\\
0 & \text{otherwise}
\end{cases}
Determine whether or not $g$ is in  $\mathscr{R}$ on $[0,1]$ and prove your assertion. For this problem you may consider $0= 0/1$ to be in lowest terms.
Here's an attempt. I may have abused a bit of notation here, but the ideas are there.
Proof:
Let $M_i = \sup \limits_{x \in [x_{i-1},x_i]} f(x)$.
Notice first that the lower Riemann sums are always $0$, since every interval contains an irrational number. Thus, to prove $f \in \mathscr{R}$, it suffices to prove that, given any $\epsilon >0$, $\sum \limits_{i \in P} M_i \Delta x_i < \epsilon$ for some partition.
Let $\epsilon > 0 $ and $M  > \frac{2}{\epsilon}$. We first show that there exists $\eta(x,\frac{1}{M})$ so that $|f(x) - f(y)| < \frac{1}{M}$ if $|x-y| < \eta$. Fix $x \in (\mathbb{R} \setminus \mathbb{Q}) \cap [0,1]$. Now, consider the set $$R_{M} := \{ r \in \mathbb{Q} : r = \frac{p}{n}, n \leq M, p \leq n, p \in \mathbb{N} \}.$$ Clearly this set is finite, enumerate it as $\{q_1,\ldots, q_m\}$. So, let $$\eta(x,\frac{1}{M}) = \min_{i=1,\ldots, m} |x- q_i|.$$ We see then, $|f(x) - f(y)| < \frac{1}{M}$ on this $\eta$-neighborhood.
After we choose that $\eta$ so that $x \in (\mathbb{R} \setminus \mathbb{Q}) \cap [0,1]$, is continuous in a $\eta$-neighborhood, we see
$$ A:= [0,1] \setminus R_M \subset \left( \bigcup_{ x \in ( \mathbb{R} \setminus \mathbb{Q}) \cap [0,1]} B_{\eta(x)} (x) \right) \cap [0,1].$$
Since $A$ is compact, we may take finite sub-covering, and let $\delta = \min \limits_{i=1,\ldots,n} \{\eta(x_i)\}$. Take a partition $P_1$ of $A$ so that $\Delta x_i < \delta$. Since $R_M$ is non-empty, we can take a partition $P_2$ of $R_M$ so that $\Delta x_i < \frac{\epsilon}{2m}.$ Moreover, we see that,  on $[0,1]$, $f$ is at most $1$. Let $P = P_1 \cup P_2$. Thus,
\begin{eqnarray*}
\sum_{i \in P} M_i \Delta x_i &=& \sum_{i \in P_1} M_i \Delta x_i + \sum_{i \in P_2} M_i \Delta x_i \\
&\leq& \frac{1}{M} \sum_{i \in P_1} \Delta x_i + \sum_{i \in P_2} \Delta x_i \\
&<& \frac{\epsilon}{2} + \frac{\epsilon}{2} = \epsilon
\end{eqnarray*}
Comments?
EDITED I think I resolved the issue.

A: For an alternative approach, choose $N \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $1/(N+1) < \epsilon/2$ and let
$$B_N = \left\{1,\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{3},\frac{2}{3}, \ldots, \frac{1}{N}, \ldots, \frac{N-1}{N} \right\}.$$
If $x \notin B_N$, then $f(x) \leqslant 1/(N+1) < \epsilon/2$.  With $m = \#(B_N)$, choose a partition $P = (x_0,x_1, \ldots, x_n)$ where $n > m$ and $\|P\| < \frac{\epsilon}{4m}.$  There are at most $2m$ subintervals such that $[x_{j-1},x_j] \cap B_n \neq \varnothing.$
Let $M_j = \sup_{x \in [x_{j-1},x_j]} f(x).$
Then, the upper sum satisfies
$$U(P,f) = \sum_{j=1}^n M_j(x_j-x_{j-1}) = \\ \sum_{[x_{j-1},x_j] \cap B_N \neq \varnothing} M_j(x_j-x_{j-1}) + \sum_{[x_{j-1},x_j] \cap B_N = \varnothing} M_j(x_j-x_{j-1}) \\ \leqslant 2m \cdot 1 \cdot \frac{\epsilon}{4m} + \frac{1}{N+1}(1-0) \\ \leqslant  \epsilon.$$

A: I just wanted to note that using Lebesgue's criterion for Riemann integrability, the proof is easy:
The criterion says that a bounded function on a compact interval $[a,b]$ is Riemann integrable if and only if it is continuous almost everywhere (the set of its points of discontinuity has measure zero).
Since the rationals have measure zero, it is enough to show $f$ is continuous in at all irrational points.
Let $x \in \mathbb{R} \setminus \mathbb{Q}$. Then $f(x)=0$. Suppose $x_n \to x$. We need to show $f(x_n) \to 0$. We can assume W.L.O.G that all the $x_n$ are rational. Since a sequence of rationals with an irrational limit have denominators going to infinity, we get the desired result.
Admittedly, Lebesgue's criterion is a rather "heavy gun" to use here, but for those who already know it, it is very nice:)

A: The lowest sums are easily seen to be zero. We are going to prove that with a suitable selection of the partitions the upper sums tend to zero. For this, take $p$ a prime number and let $k=\max \{n \mid 1+\frac{n(n+1)}{2}\leq p\}$. So $p=1+\frac{k(k+1)}{2}+q$, where $0\leq q< k+1$. We consider now the partition $P=\{0<1/p<2/p<...<(p-1)/p<1\}$ and let $m_i=\sup\{f(x)\mid x\in [(i-1)/p,i/p]$; $i=0,1,...p-1\}$. Now we reorder the sequence $M=\{m_1,m_2,...,m_p\}$ in decreasing order (not strictly) to obtain the finite sequence of $p$ terms $R=\{1,....1/p\}$. $1$ appear as the supreme in the subinterval $[(p-1)/p,1]$ and $1/p$ as the supreme in the subinterval $[0,1/p]$. Then we have
A-) If $a<b<p$ and $a/b\in [(l-1)/p,l/p]$ then $a/b\in ((l-1)/p,l/p)$. In other words, with the above conditions $a/b$ can not be of the form $n/p, n<p$ because if so, $p\mid bn \Rightarrow p\mid b$ or $p\mid n$ which is absurd since $b,n<p$. This prevent $1/b$ from being the supreme of two consecutive subintervals. For example if $p=4$ then $1/2$ is the supreme in the subintervals $[1/4,1/2]$ and $[1/2,3/4]$ and we don't want this to happen. That's the reason for which we choose p to be a prime number.
B-) As a consequence of A-) we have then that $1/b$ could appear at most $b-1$ times in the sequence $M$ (or $R$). Therefore, the first $1+k(k+1)/2$ terms of $R$ can be upper bounded (not strictly) term-to-term by the sequence $\{1,1/2,1/3,1/3,1/4,1/4,1/4,...,1/(k+1),...,1/(k+1)\}$ (note that in fact there are $1+1+2+...+k=1+k(k+1)/2$) terms). For the remaining $q$ terms we can take $1/(k+2)$ as an upper bound. Then we have
C-) $$U(f;P)\leq \frac{1}{p}[1+1/2+2/3+...+k/(k+1)+q/(k+2)]=\frac{1}{p}[1+1-1/2+1-1/3+...+1-1/(k+1)+q/(k+2)]=\frac{1}{p}[k+1-S+q/(k+2)]$$ where  $S=1/2+...+1/(k+1)$.
Since $S>0$, $p>\frac{k(k+1)}{2}$ and $q<k+1$,then  $$U(f;P)<\frac{1}{p}[k+1+q/(k+2)]<\frac{2}{k(k+1)}[k+1+q/(k+2)]=\frac{2}{k}+\frac{q}{k(k+1)(k+2)}<\frac{2}{k}+\frac{1}{k(k+2)}$$
If $p\rightarrow \infty \Rightarrow k\rightarrow \infty \Rightarrow \frac{2}{k}+\frac{1}{k(k+2)}\rightarrow 0$. So we have proved that if $p\rightarrow \infty \Rightarrow U(f;P)\rightarrow 0 $

Canadian Foreign Policy: The War on Independent Thought
Two stories this week highlight Canada's rapidly decaying capacity to think, engage and act on foreign policy issues. The first was the Globe's story Canadian Aid Groups Told to Keep Quiet on Policy Issues, the second is Paul Well's detailed and devastating account of the implosion of Rights and Democracy, an NGO run by the Federal Government which has seen its entire staff revolt in the face of the political efforts by government to reset its policies.
Both stories hint at a common pattern – that through bullying, funding decisions, appointments and any other means at its disposal – the conservative government is seeking to ensure that any voice in Canada that engages international issues aligns itself with the government's opinion. In short, this Conservative government is seeking to recentralize Canadian foreign policy. It is an effort that cannot succeed, but in which the attempt will devastate Canada's influence in the world and negatively impact our capacity to act on the global stage.
Because in the 21st century a country's foreign policy capacity – especially a small country like Canada – does not spring solely from the size of one's military and the influence of one's diplomats. Rather, influence springs from the capacity to tackle and address – increasingly complex – problems. Military might and diplomats can be deeply important but they are increasingly a smaller piece of the puzzle. The real question is, how does a state marshal all the resources and talents at its disposal and focus them on a problem.
In the 19th century the answer was easier. Military might and diplomats were the only tools and so control over these tools – the capacity of a single person (the PM) or group (cabinet) to focus the energy of the state on a problem – was the essence of international influence. But today this is no longer the case. Many of the critical relationships, expertise for addressing problems, volunteering capacity and even funding, lie beyond the control of the state. More importantly, public opinion has become an essential part of any effort. In this world, where the state is only one of many actors, and is one that is frequently looked upon with skepticism, how does one marshal this network or foreign policy ecosystem and attempt to focus it on a problem?
This is the great challenge facing government's everywhere (especially those of smaller countries where resources outside of government are essential).
The conservative response – outlined above by the Globe and Paul Wells – describes an effort to assert control over these non-state actors and opinion shapers. To bully them into line and force them to not only cooperate with but mimic the government's priorities.
This strategy will not work.
Over the short term the talent in Canada's foreign policy network will simply balk. The best will leave for other countries which will seek to engage them on policy, not declare war on independent thought. Today we risk the great "hallowing out" of our foreign policy capacity (and thus international influence) not because the quality of our diplomats or military will decline, but because the quality of our NGO sector will decline.
Moreover, this sector's international influence depends on independence. Other states and public opinion more generally will not respect Canadian organizations that are seen as merely puppets of the Canadian government. Indeed, expect these types of organizations to see their influence wain to a point where they become insignificant on the international stage. In short, there will be fewer Canadian voices and they will all carry less weight.
Finally however, the ecosystem will adjust. Already many Canadian organizations that work and engage in international issues find it cumbersome to work with Government. People I speak with often eschew CIDA grants since the reporting mechanisms they come with are often more expensive to implement than the value of the grant. Now that Government money is linked with political interference and meddling, an increasing number of organizations will avoid engaging the Canadian government altogether. The result? A NGO sector that is actively hostile – or at best indifferent – to the government and a diminished capacity to coordinate action, research and policy across the Canadian foreign policy ecosystem. In short, the Canadian government will have no more control over internationally focused resources, but it will have shrunk the country's collective influence.
In a networked world you can't control the network, you can only seek to influence it. This government's actions are a case study in how to lose credibility and sacrifice capacity. If, however, they don't want a Canada that engages in the world, perhaps, in their mind, it is all worth it.

Why we are having the wrong debate on Afghanistan
Why is it that we continue to see the Afghanistan mission through the lens of peacekeeping, as opposed to peacebuilding? This fact seems to underlie and shape the entire debate – forcing us to ask the wrong questions and driving all our political parties to poorly thought out solutions.
Take, for example, the new Liberal position that insists on a non-combat role. As Rosie Dimanno points out in a recent Toronto Star article the number of Canadian troops killed in combat in Afghanistan last year was 0. 12 were killed by improvised explosive and 11 by roadside bombs and land mines. In addition there have been deaths from accidents. But there has not been a single combat death since Sept 3. 2006. One is forced to ask… why insist on a non-combat role? It is because this is what we'd like the mission to entail? Or because this is what the mission does entail. Although we may wish it, we are not peacekeeping. Our troops are not positioning themselves between enemy combatants in an effort to prevent them from fighting. This is peacebuilding – we are one of the combatants and we should not pretend otherwise.
The risks of pretending we are peacekeeping however, are significant. As she points out:
If Liberals are trying to spare Canadian lives – by venturing passively, ducking into calmer territory and promoting reconstruction in the absence of a secure environment – an anti-combat insistence is utterly without merit.
But it might get Canadian troops killed. An enemy that knows troops won't fight back, can't fight back because of political handcuffs slapped on half a world away, is an enemy given a blood-embossed invitation to attack at will.
Her article may be alarmist, but its central argument is correct. As General Lewis Mackenzie confirms, denying our troops the capacity to take advanced actions to protect themselves – or the NGO's and aid workers attempting to rebuild Afghanistan – is sheer folly. Our polticians owe it to both the public and our military to be honest about what this mission requires of us.
Which brings us to a second distortion. In a peacekeeping mission one would want to know other countries are participating. A broader coalition means more countries are fostering international pressure to end the conflict and bring their peacekeepers home. Again, however, we are not in a peacekeeping mission. Either we believe an unstable Afghanistan is a threat to our national interest or we don't. If it is a threat, why does it matter what our NATO allies think? Did we, prior to the second world war, wait to see who else signed up before committing to action? Of course not. The cause was important enough for us to commit ourselves. Nor, after 1943, did we say "we've done our part, time for someone else to step up."And yet this is precisely how we are presently framing the issue.
As a result our national debate over Afghanistan actually undermines our efforts to solicit support. Our politicians end up treating Afghanistan as a duty – something, like peacekeeping, we do to maintain for humanitarian reasons, or to buttress our reputation within NATO or the United States. Not once in the last few months has Afghanistan been described as an imperative. But few, if any countries, are willing to put their soldiers in harms way out of a vague sense of obligation to an international body. Countries – and Canada should be among this list – should put their soldiers in harms way with enourmous trepidation, and usually only when they believe vital national interests are at stake. By telling our allies "it's someone else's turn" we risk conveying that we really don't believe this mission is vital. If it were, we'd be asking them to work along side us, not replace us.
At present, it appears the majority of our allies don't believe a stable Afghanistan is essential to global peace and security. This is either because it isn't, or because we've failed to convince them. This is a difficult assessment to make and I'd be foolish to claim that I know the answer with complete certainty. That said, I suspect – as Paul Wells points out – our diplomat efforts to make the case have been weak at best.
Canada must decide for itself if we think a stable Afghanistan is critical to the stability of the international system and thus, in turn, our national interest. Sadly, I've heard little of this in the discussion among the political parties. And yet addressing this underlying question would not only be the more honest approach, it might cause the "are we in" or "are we out" debate to simply disappear.

For fine Thai dining with a difference in Boston Spa, diners head to Thai Jantra up on the HIgh Street. Proudly sourcing local ingredients from Yorkshire suppliers, Thai Jantra's impeccable menu of Southeast Asian specialties draw foodies in from around Wetherby and Leeds. While grass-fed Aberdeen Angus beef and outdoor-reared saddleback pork are de rigeur in this Thai restaurant's dishes, there's also a completely organic wine list to tackle, making Thai Jantra one of the best places in the area to eat exotic.
Vegetable spring rolls with plum sauce.
Tiger prawns marinated, wrapped in spring roll pastry and deep fried.
Spring rolls, prawns in pandan, marinated chicken satay,vegetable baskets and spicy Thai fishcakes.
Fab restaurant. Great ambiance and fresh, authentic Thai cuisine. I have never been disappointed when eating here. Large menu choice and very tasty food. Overall a great experience.
Had a fantastic evening at Thai Jantra. Staff were lovely and food was delicious. For a Wednesday night the restaurant was busy too. Altogether a great experience. We will be back!
Set in an old coaching house on Boston Spa's historic High Street, Thai Jantra are traditional in more ways than one. The food is superlative Southeast Asian and Thai, and the ingredients used in each and every dish are traditionally Yorkshire. We've mentioned the sustainably farmed meat that Thai Jantra go to great lengths to source, and the totally organic wine list – but even the eggs and dairy products that the kitchen stocks are 100% organic and the greens are as fresh as can be, sourced similarly from local growers. This all adds up to a superlative dining experience that attracts a lot of custom from Wetherby, Leeds, and further afield.
Combining elegant European-style restaurant service with the exotic flavour and colour of Thai cuisine, Thai Jantra excels where other Southeast Asian restaurants fail. The atmosphere at their central Boston Spa premises is incredibly authentic – the perfect backdrop to a lunch or evening meal that draws from a long, extensive menu. Thai Jantra's great value three-course meals are ever popular, while highlights from the a la carte menu include the regularly changed up Thai Jantra mixed starter platter, ideal for sharing and getting an idea of the restaurant's offering, classic Thai soups, traditional Thai beef and lamb dishes made using meat that has been hung and aged for at least 28 days, and naturally reared pork dishes like the moo kata, chargrilled saddleback or old spot pork served sizzling and garnished with a piquant lemon, garlic and chilli sauce.


We believe that we are one. If we can help, then we will.
Our story began in South Africa in 2010 through a chance encounter between Maria Gaba, a woman with a flock of hungry children, and our founder Jen Kyna.
Maria had for years been struggling to take care of a growing number of abandoned children from her local community. With so many mouths to feed she sought help from others and when Jen literally ran into Maria's friend at an airport help had been found!
Maria's story resonated so deeply with us that we were compelled to do something. Maria saw it as her responsibility to keep the children safe, having extricated herself from a life of abuse and domestic violence so she started a day care centre that ensured kids were safe in her care.
A spark becomes a flame, and a little support turned into a lot.
What started with small donations of clothes, books and food from friends quickly turned into an actual foundation that provided sustainable vegetable gardens, sewing rooms, a community centre, a creche, an orphanage and safe housing.
Maria and the children no longer need to suffer through hunger and abuse. Thanks to our supportive Kindling community, they have their basic needs met and a thriving, sustainable community has emerged from the love and energy invested in the township of Windmill Park (30mins SE of Johannesburg). Children are fed, safe, sheltered and are enrolled in school.
In extending this big heartedness to others, we discovered we felt good ourselves. We felt conscious, deeply respectful and responsible; suddenly the good starting spilling over.
We believe that we are one with this community. If we can help them, we will.
We're now inspiring others to join us, whether it be helping Maria to drive the growth of another community in need, or driving positive change for the existing community, like helping to fund a counseling service for those who have suffered trauma, sending a child to school to give them a better future, or funding equipment to support the community bakery to continue providing food to the hungry.
We're always on the lookout for the next Maria - someone who is willing to give selflessly in service to others - and when we do, we'll be right there to help them start something good too.

New ideas sought for Japan's youth development
Nobuyuki Uenoyama, head of the J.League's technical committee, says the league has to face up to the fact that it has a serious problem with its youth development. "Most of the people who trained the Samurai Blue into who they are today are high school teachers," he told Shinichi Chubachi of the Asahi Shimbun. "Our J.League training system has many issues regarding instruction and its ability to produce players."
Twenty years ago, when the foundations of the current professional structure were laid, clubs were required to establish training structures that many at the time thought would take over as the main suppliers of professional talent in the country. It has not worked out that way, says Uenoyama: "We are gathering good players, but they are not developing very well."
J.League youth teams are difficult to get into, but once players are accepted they often stay on their teams during their three years in junior high school and three years in high school. J.League officials are aware of the "comfort" factor inherent in such a culture, but say that they can't do anything about the problem because of fears about the reaction from players kicked off the teams.
One team, Kashiwa Reysol has formed partnerships with 10 nearby clubs with teams for elementary school and junior high school players, and has established a system where promising players will be brought into Kashiwa's youth teams. Kashiwa will assist players moving down from its youth teams by helping them join one of the 10 clubs.
"There may be complaints and misunderstandings, but I hope to proceed with the plan while deepening understanding with all parties involved," said Tatsuma Yoshida, head of training at Kashiwa Reysol.

Are There More Americans in the NLL?
The NLL is growing, and good portion of its growth is happening in the United States. The league has long been relatively short on Americans, but are there more in the NLL now than before?
Going back to 1987, the NLL has never had 14 teams like it will in the upcoming 2021-22 season. Back in 2020, the league had 13 competitors, which matched peaks that were also seen in 2002 and 2007. The most stable period in terms of number of teams from year to year was from 2012 to 2018 when the amount remained at nine.
NLL fans know that time frame was loaded with franchises moving, so "stable" has to be taken with a pretty big grain of salt. But purely in terms of total teams, and more importantly player spots, it was pretty locked in for a while.
So, that brings me to looking at the number of Americans who are aiming to crack NLL rosters as we speak. In theory, they have the best chance they've ever had right now. The logical question becomes, do they really? Are there actually more American lacrosse players in the NLL now than in past years?
To figure this out, I looked at the day one rosters for those 13-team seasons in 2007 and 2020 (I left 2022 off because sadly the NLL.com stats database doesn't go back that far). By comparison, I also checked on 2016 when there were just nine teams, and it became a very hard time to be an American player trying to find a home in indoor lacrosse.
I chose 2016 because it was after the large exodus of American veteran indoor players as they prepared for the 2014 FIL World Lacrosse Championship, and it was also right after the 2015 World Indoor Lacrosse Championship when USA Lacrosse took over from US Indoor Lacrosse in managing the US Senior Men's Box Lacrosse team. That year stands out, because you had still-in-college Blaze Riorden alongside Casey Powell as his indoor career was winding down, but also players with little-to-no NLL experience, like Drew Snider and Matt Abbott, playing with NLL regulars such as Ryan Hotaling, Kevin Buchanan, and Brett Manney.
So how did things break out year-by-year, and how are we looking now?
2007 (13 Teams)
Rochester – 4/18: Chris Schiller, Regy Thorpe, Scott Ditzell, Pat Cougevan
Colorado – 6/18: Mike Law, Josh Sims, Jamie Hanford, Brian Langtry, Tom Ethington, Dave Stilley
Buffalo – 0/18
Portland – 2/18: Jed Prossner, Ryan Powell
Arizona – 0/18
San Jose – 3/18: Tim Booth, Steve Holmes, Eric Martin
Philadelphia – 8/18: John Christmas, Kyle Sweeney, Marc Morley, Keith Cromwell, Dan Marohl, Shawn Nadelen, Kyle Fiat, Jake Bergey
Edmonton – 0/18
New York – 15/18: Erik Miller, Casey Powell, Brendan Mundorf, Bobby Horsey, Matt Alrich, Brian Tower, Jarett Park, Ryan Boyle, Rich Brzeski, Bryan Barrett, Joseph Ghedina, Jeff Spano, Nick Schroeder, Kevin Galbraith, Roy Colsey.
Chicago – 3/18: Bill McGlone, Zach Heffner, Chris Panos
Minnesota – 0/18
Calgary – 0/18
Toronto – 0/18
Total – 41/234 (17.5%) of Game 1 rosters were American
What really jumped out to me on this list was not that there were a few NLL teams with no Americans in Game 1 (although Arizona was a little surprising), but seeing the New York Titans all the way up there at 15 of 18 players being American. It's hard to imagine the Riptide pulling that off this year despite an already American-heavy roster. Also, 2007 Edmonton had zero Americans while being coached by Paul Day, who is now the head coach of the American-heavy Philadelphia Wings.
2016 (9 Teams)
Vancouver – 1/18: Chris O'Dougherty
Rochester – 2/18: Joe Walters, Joe Resetarits
New England – 5/18: Ryan Hotaling, Kevin Buchanan, Brett Manney, John Ranagan, Brian Megill
Georgia – 3/18: Joel White, David Earl, Mitch Belisle,
Colorado – 1/18: Greg Downing
Saskatchewan – 0/18
Total – 12/162 (7.4%)
I knew things were right in these years, but I didn't think they were THIS tight. In just nine years, the NLL lost about a quarter of its teams, and the number of Americans also reduced by about the same margin. Going from 41 down to 12 is a huge drop, especially when you figure that fielding a national team with those numbers inherently means you cannot put together a squad of current professional indoor players. This was a period when plenty more Americans were in training camps to start the year, but when those final rosters came around, they were regularly on the outside looking in.
https://twitter.com/LacrosseBucket/status/934483651395506176
Toronto – 1/19: Tom Schreiber
Rochester – 0/19
New England – 4/19: Brett Manney, Joe Resetarits, Joe Nardella, Dave Emala
Georgia – 1/19: Matt Dunn
Colorado – 1/19: Tim Edwards
Halifax – 1/19: Cory Becker
San Diego – 4/19: Connor Fields, Mark Glicini, Eli Gobrecht, Garrett Epple
New York – 6/19: Connor Kelly, Mike Manley, Kieran McArdle, John Ranagan, Cody Radziewicz, Gale Thorpe
Philadelphia – 6/19: Matt Rambo, Trevor Baptiste, Blaze Riorden, Isaiah Davis-Allen, Liam Byrnes, Kevin Buchanan
Total – 25/247 (10.1%)
The raw number of Americans going from 12 to 25 from 2016 to 2020 is incredible. It's also notable that several names were on rosters last season but weren't on that Game 1 roster that is the basis of comparison, including Mikie Schlosser, Joel White, Alex Woodall, Myles Jones, and Greg Downing.
But from where the number was in 2007, there's a long way to go. So, what do we have in store now?
Even just a few seasons back, most Americans coming out of college had zero box experience or any plans of playing pro in the @NLL.
Times have changed.
We'll rank the 40 best Americans available in the 2020 NLL Draft.
Outside of a couple, they've all played box. A lot of box. pic.twitter.com/dIfSedMFzX

2022 (14 Teams) – What's Next?
With the addition of Panther City to the mix, every team had to reshuffle the deck going into this weekend. But the question at the root of everything is, will there be enough spots?
It's hard to imagine a drastic turnaround from last season to bring the numbers from 25 up past 2007's 41. But that doesn't mean American box is failing. On the contrary, 2007 was benefiting from several years of more teams in the league to allow teams to draft more American players from the get-go. That's exactly where teams are sitting right now.
But with training camps happening as we speak, we can't say for sure how many Americans will actually be on these Game 1 rosters. What we can say is that more have opportunities than we've seen in well over a decade. No matter how you look at it, there is plenty of optimism surrounding both the expanding NLL and opportunities for field-first players to learn the box game and excel at the professional level.
Ryan is originally from the Central New York area and has a lacrosse problem. After roaming various men's leagues in the Upstate New York region, he relocated to the Greater Boston area where he does much of the same. When not playing, he spends his waking hours following the sport across all levels, watching games, driving to games, and coaching youth lacrosse. He also specializes in stringing lacrosse sticks poorly.

Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga - What we know so far
Over the weekend we got a sneak peak of the new Eurovision film by Netflix, 'Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga' through the release of the first single 'Volcano Man'.
For those in Australia it featured in Saturday night's 'Eurovision 2020: Big Night In!' on SBS. Over the last few days snippets of information have been revealed into what we should expect form this comedy. We run through what we know so far…
What is the 'Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga' about?
The film is a feel-good comedy about two Icelandic small-town singers Lars Erickssong and Sigrit Ericksdottir who get an opportunity of a lifetime to represent Iceland at the the Eurovision Song Contest.
'Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga' is directed by David Dobkin, who has previously directed Shanghai Knights which starred Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson and Wedding Crashers which featured Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn. The film has been written by Will Ferrell and Andre Steele.
Who will star in the film?
The film stars:
Will Ferrell as Icelandic singer Lars Erickssong
Rachel McAdams as Icelandic singer Sigrit Ericksdottir
Pierce Brosnsan as Lars's father Erick
Dan Stevens as Russian singer Alexander Lemtov
Demi Lovato as Katiana
Many others are also expected to take part in the film including siblings Natasia and Jamie Demetriou, Graham Norton who will play himself, and Icelandic stars Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, Björn Hlynur Haraldsson, Nína Dögg Filippusdóttir and Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson (who featured in a couple episodes of 'Games of Thrones').
Dan Stevens (shown above) as Russian singer Alexander Lemtov, Lars and Sigrit's competitor at the Contest
Where was it filmed?
Filming had begun last year in the United Kingdom and Iceland. Will Ferrel and Rachel McAdams were also seen at the dress rehearsals of the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Tel Aviv, Israel.
Who are behind the songs that will feature in the film?
So far it has been revealed that music producer Savan Kotecha is involved. He has most notably produced music for Westlife, Ariana Grande, Usher, The Weeknd, Britney Spears, One Direction and Demi Lovato.
The first single release 'Volcano Man' was sung by Will Ferrell and My Marianne aka Molly Sandén. Molly Sandén is a Swedish singer who has previously participated at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2006 and at Melodifestivalen in 2009, 2012 and 2016. Rachel McAdams is shown lip-syncing to Molly's vocals in the music video.
'Volcano Man' was written and produced by Christian Persson and Gustaf Holter. Both songwriters and producers have collaborated before for Alex Aris, Steerner and Lisa Ajax. A couple years ago the duo had joined Universal Music Publishing Scandinavia.
Here are a list of the songs we know will feature in the film so far:
'Volcano Man' by Will Ferrell and My Marianne
'Lion of Love' by Dan Stevens
'In the Mirror' by Demi Lovato
'Jaja, Ding Dong'
'Double Trouble'
When will it be released?
'Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga' was set to premiere at the same time as the Eurovision Song Contest 2020. But since the Covid-19 pandemic and cancellation of Eurovision its release was back.
The soundtrack will be out on June 26.
The film will be shown exclusively through the streaming service Netflix from June 26.

Graham chasing Rally GB ahead of SRC return
Posted on: August 29th, 2017
Former class champion returning to Scottish Championship to get miles ahead of Wales Rally GB
Defending Group N and Class 9 champion Ally Graham will return to the ARR Craib MSA Scottish Rally Championship (SRC) on the Armstrong Galloway Hills Rally as a test bed for an entry to the final round of FIA World Rally Championship, Wales Rally GB.
The Paisley driver campaigned his near standard Mitsubishi Evo IX to eighth overall and second in the Challengers (for drivers without more than one top ten finish in the last decade) last year, but has missed all six of the previous rallies this season.
"We can't wait to get back out!" Graham exclaimed. "It's been twelve months since we were out on gravel and I've missed it."
The reason behind Graham's absence has been financial. He has been saving up so he can compete on the Wales Rally GB National, an event that has been won by SRC crews since 2013.
"I have always fancied the Wales Rally GB National," he explained, "but we have always been doing a full SRC season beforehand so have never had the funds to go. However, this year since I decided to take a break we have the money to go and give it a try in October."
Graham's last Scottish Championship outing was on the Galloway Hills, the event he returns on, where he finished inside the top ten for the first time in his career. He admitted it has been hard watching from the side-lines.
"It's been tough not competing in the championship, I'm not a very good spectator! Since last year we have updated the car with parts from Arnside Motorsport (AMS) such as the driveshafts and the turbo.
"However the biggest change will be the full printed wrap that the guys at Shore Wraps designed and fitted perfectly for us. We're really happy with the way it has turned out."
Graham's new livery, wrapped by Shore Wraps
Graham will once again be co-driven by Alford's Laura Stuart, the sister of SRC John Horton Star Driver Award recipient Mike Stuart. The pair are out on the Galloway Hills "as a shakedown", so that they can head into their Welsh onslaught at the end of October in much better shape.
The 2017 ARR Craib MSA Scottish Rally Championship is partnered by Pirelli Motorsport, Coltel Communications and Reis Motorsport Insurance.
The championship consists of seven forest events across the whole of Scotland, taking in over 300 competitive stage miles.
The final round of the SRC is the Armstrong Galloway Hills Rally, Castle Douglas on Saturday 9th August. Entries for the event close tomorrow.

The iPhone 7 is still an incredible phone, but it's a shame that Apple no longer makes phones as small as the iPhone SE.
Apple's HomePod speaker, which debuted in February, has brilliant sound.
4. Apple's September event was one of the most disappointing iPhone launches in recent memory.
Chalk it up to leaks, but Apple's September event, which debuted three new iPhone models and a new Apple Watch, featured absolutely zero surprises, which was very un-Apple.
Yes: The names, specs and features of Apple's new devices were leaked weeks before the event. Bloomberg accurately reported on the names of the new iPhones – XS, XS Max, and XR – and Apple blog 9to5Mac published Apple's own marketing photos of the new iPhones and Watch, which also showed up in the keynote.
Overall, Apple's September event was one of the coldest and most boring Apple events I had witnessed in quite some time.
Apple in 2017 unveiled the iPhone X – pronounced "ten," not "ex," since it represents the 10th anniversary of the iPhone.
In 2018, Apple had an opportunity to return the iPhone naming convention to normalcy, but instead decided on three terrible names for its 2018 iPhones: the iPhone XS (pronounced "ten-ess," not "excess"), the iPhone XS Max ("ten-ess max") and iPhone XR ("ten-arr").
6. The iPhone XS was hardly an upgrade from last year's iPhone X.
Apple traditionally redesigns its iPhones every two years. For the years in between, Apple typically releases an "S" variant of that phone featuring faster chips and usually a handful of standout features to set it apart from the prior-year phone.
And despite Apple's insistence that this is a work computer, the iPad is frustrating to use if you want to do actual work, since Apple refuses to let its tablet work with mice or trackpads.
This means you'll need to constantly lift your arm to touch the screen, which is still not a great experience.
The iPad Pro is excellent for niche use cases, but the architecture of iOS and Apple's own bizarre restrictions keep it from being a true laptop replacement.
Apple hyped up a "four-day shopping event" in November, which kicked off on Black Friday.
Apple's Black Friday event basically consisted of gift cards given out when customers buy certain products.
And the gift-card deals could only be applied to older models. Apple's $50 iPhone offer, for example, applied only when buying the iPhone 7 and 8 models and their respective Plus variants. The iPad gift cards couldn't be obtained when buying the new iPad Pro models. The Apple Watch offers excluded the new Series 4.
While many were undoubtedly disappointed by Apple's Black Friday event, the simple fact is that unlike many other companies, Apple does not need Black Friday to be successful.
9. Apple's new MacBook Air did not get the full redesign treatment many had hoped for.
The biggest difference is the new Retina display, a high-definition screen that's now surrounded by black borders instead of the aluminum borders from past models.
Unfortunately, that Retina display, while sharp, is woefully dim. The computer works very well, but the screen cannot get bright enough for my liking. I swear I'm not being a snob about this; go to an Apple Store and turn the brightness up to the highest setting, and tell me that's bright enough for your eyes.
My wife owns an old MacBook Air from 2014, which has just 4 GB of RAM. I told her not to bother updating to this year's model. But that's just one opinion; my colleague Ben Gilbert seems to be very happy with his new MacBook Air.
10. iOS 12 didn't feel much different from iOS 11.
iOS 12, though, didn't feel much different than the previous software, iOS 11.
The biggest changes in iOS 12 are grouped notifications, which stacks your notifications by app, and sometimes by person. There's also Siri Shortcuts, which very few people seem to use, and the new ScreenTime and App Limits features, which are actually excellent, but not really for me.
Don't get me wrong: I love that Apple is letting people set limits on their phone usage. But it's totally optional, and I don't need to put limits on my time within apps. I get those ScreenTime Digest notifications every Sunday morning, and ignore them every single time.
Last week, I asked some of my colleagues on Business Insider's tech team – who use and write about technology every single day – if anyone had tried Siri Shortcuts. Out of the 10 people in the room, one person had tried it, but she said she didn't actually set up a shortcut.
Siri Shortcuts are basically "if-this-then-that" routines you can create for Siri. You program Siri to perform a certain action if another action occurs. The idea is to help fill in the gaps in Siri's abilities by letting people make their own commands and actions.
The problem boils down to design: It's very difficult to even find this feature – and once you're there, it's not very clear how everything works. It seems like the only people who generally understand how to use Siri Shortcuts are programmers and engineers – not regular people.
Despite the many reports about new AirPods coming in 2018, this just wasn't the year.
Apple debuted AirPods in 2016 alongside the iPhone 7, which was the first iPhone without a headphone jack. We're hearing the next version of AirPods will have improved sound and water-resistance, but those are just rumors. It was a bummer we didn't get the new models this year, but here's hoping they arrive in 2019.
As for AirPower, Apple debuted that wireless charging accessory in late 2017, but offered no follow-up news on that announcement for the entirety of the next year. Here's hoping we see AirPower resurface in 2019.

Biographie

Après avoir obtenu son agrégation de lettres (1914), il entre à l'École française d'Athènes (1919). Le directeur Charles Picard l'envoie alors fouiller en Troade et y visiter le tumulus de Protésilas. Il le charge aussi d'explorer la région de Téos.

Directeur des chantiers ouverts des Manganes et de l'Hebdomon à Constantinople (1921-1923), il assure de 1924 à 1927 le secrétariat général de l'École. En 1933, il soutient sa thèse de doctorat et devient professeur d'archéologie et d'histoire de l'art à Montpellier.

Nommé Directeur de l'Ecole française d'Athènes (1936-1950), il fait reprendre en 1946 les fouilles de Malia et, en 1948 de Thasos et de Délos.

Il épouse entre les deux guerres mondiales la résistante Simone Gillet, fille de Louis Gillet, académicien. Elle sera Pauline, pendant la Résistance. Ils achèteront en 1949 le château d'Assas.

Modern learning and behavioural theory-based learning programmes aimed at improving clinical practice.
Engaging, enabling and equipping your internal colleagues with the skills, knowledge and tools needed to succeed.
After many years in the pharma business, on both sides of the client – agency fence, you'd expect I'd know a thing or two about healthcare communications; and indeed I do, but I don't know it all. In fact, I never stop learning, but then who does? This passion for learning clearly extends into our Education and Enablement offering.
Our programmes, accredited or otherwise, are fully measurable and enable our participants to apply learned techniques to every-day practice.
When healthcare professionals are asked what they need, they invariably request better access to educational resources and treatment strategies. If you dig a little deeper, you realise what they're really asking for is help to do their job.
We at Indigo Medical can help you provide HCPs what they really need in the form of modern learning programmes that not only increase the knowledge base, but also improve the skill level of our participants.
Blended learning approach to engage, enable and equip medical, marketing and commercial personnel, empowering them to excel in their role.

Cobb and co in fight over will
October 13, 2002 — 10.00am
A former federal MP infamous for rorting travel expenses has been embroiled in a family dispute over his father's will.
Michael Roy Cobb, the former National Party Member for Parkes who was charged in 1998 with lying on 102 counts after he claimed hotel expenses while sleeping in his car, was recently back before the courts as the executor of Roy Stimpson Cobb's estate.
Michael Cobb was fined $14,000 and given a suspended two-year sentence after being found guilty of fraud and five charges of imposing on the Commonwealth.
In the NSW Supreme Court, Mr Cobb's sister, Barbara Anne Cobb, 69, made a further claim on the estate in November 2000 and, five months later, so did his stepmother, Kay Cobb.
While Barbara Cobb withdrew her additional claim, she opposed any order in favour of her stepmother and, as the executor of the estate, Mr Cobb became the defendant in both matters.
On Friday, Master John McLaughlin found in favour of Kay Cobb.
His judgment outlined the Cobb family history, which involved several marriages - Michael Cobb wed four times, twice to the same woman and most recently to MPTrish Worth - and disputes over farming properties in the Lyndhurst area of central western NSW.
When Roy Cobb died aged 88 in November 1999, he left a $90,000 country property called Twaddles to his grandson Nicholas, 19 (Mr Cobb's youngest child), a home in Orange worth $155,000 to his wife, farming property and cattle to Barbara Cobb and the $340,000 farm Burkeville, as well as the residuals of the estate, to Mr Cobb.
The court was told that following Mr Cobb's retirement from Parliament he concentrated on farming, earning a gross annual income of $82,800 from his own property, Woodview, as well as Burkeville and Twaddles, and $38,900 superannuation as a former MP.
Kay married Roy, her third husband and 20 years her senior, in 1993, and nursed him for two years before his death.
Master McLaughlin found Kay was due an additional $62,000 to help her relocate to Maitland to be close to her ailing mother, as well as $30,000 to acquire furniture.

How much of a fee discount do I get for being in a Circle?
Take Edward as an example.
Ed has £30,000 invested with Wealthify. The normal Wealthify management fee he pays is 0.6% per annum, which equates to £180 per year.
Ed created a Circle and invited seven of his friends. Six of them signed up to Wealthify and each of those invited some of their friends. In all, 26 people joined Ed's Circle, so now they all get a 15% discount on their Wealthify management fees and Ed now pays a fee of £153 a year.
Are my investments pooled together with other members of my Circle?
Absolutely not. Your money is invested in your own Investment Plan, not anywhere else, and your investments and their performance is in no way linked to anyone else's. Circles are simply a way to make investing more social and to get a reward for referring friends and family.
When are Circle discounts applied to my fees?
We apply your Circle discount depending on the number of invested members in your Circle on the last day of the month, at midnight. Any discount will be applied to that month's Wealthify management fee. The discount is not applied to fund charges.
For example, if you had 10 people in your circle on January 31st, you would be awarded a 10% discount on your fee for the month of January. If that went up to 25 people by the 28th February, your February fee would be discounted by 15%.
Why would my Circle discount go down?
Your discount depends on the number of people in your Circle. Members are free to leave a Circle and join another or start their own at any time. If that happens it might mean your Circle drops below the number needed for your current discount to apply.
Do I get the same discount whether I'm in someone's Circle or I start my own?
Yes. We give everyone in a Circle the same discount, no matter who created it or who invited the most members. We think that's the fairest way.
You can create a Circle online via your Wealthify account, as soon as you've signed up and started investing.
Who can I invite into my Circle?
Basically, anyone. Family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, or whoever. Your discount (and theirs) will kick in as soon as they start investing.
How do I invite people to join my Circle?
Once you've created a Circle, you'll be able to invite people to join it via Facebook, or via email if you know their address. They can then click a link to accept your invite, and once they've signed up and started investing, you'll all qualify for a discount on your Wealthify management fees.
If you have the Wealthify App, inviting people is even easier – simply share your Circles invite code by SMS, WhatsApp, or social networks.
Our app is available on both iOS and Android.
Can I invite members to join a Circle if I'm not the owner?
If I invite people to join my Circle, do they need to be approved by the Circle owner?
No, that would be too much like hard work! We think being invited is approval enough.
Can I request to join a Circle?
Yes, when someone you know shares a Circle invite via their social media account, you will have the option to request to join. Either the Circle owner, or the person who shared the link, must then approve you.
If they use the Wealthify App to share a Circle invite, it's even easier – you just enter the Circle invite code, and you're in!
Is there a maximum Circle size?
No, but the maximum discount is reached when your Circle gets to 50 people. Then again, we may introduce some bigger discount tiers later, and it could be pretty cool to have one of the biggest Circles on Wealthify – so keep expanding!
Can I leave a Circle and start my own?
Yes. But you can only ever be member of one Circle at a time. So you must leave the Circle you're in before you can join another one.
Can I create more than one Circle?
No, you can only create one Circle at a time, and you can only be a member of one Circle at a time.
If I started a Circle and then I leave it, does it close?
No, ownership will simply transfer to another member - usually the second longest-serving member. Unless you're last member, in which case, yes it would close!
What responsibilities does a Circle owner have?
If you're an owner, you'll be able to change the name, description and photo for the Circle and approve or reject joining requests. All this can be done via your dashboard in your Wealthify account.
Is any personal data shared through Circles?
Only your first name is visible to other Circle members. No-one can see your personal account details or your investments.
You can add a bio and chat to fellow members via your Circle dashboard.
