capable of surviving the winter and infecting the young wheat in spring. Breeding from plants possessing mechanical or other advantages tending to prevent the attacks of fungi is, however, as Dr. Appel suggests, likely to prove one of the most fruitful methods of controlling disease in plants.
THE Journal of the Royal Horticultural Society (vol. xl., part 3) contains several useful horticultural papers, and one of particular interest on the double stock, its history and literature, by Miss E. R. Saunders. The double stock is referred to first by Dodoens in 1568, and is figured by de l'Obel in 1581. Speculations as to the origin and mode of production of double stocks have been varied and frequent, and it is only owing to the Mendelian methods of analysis that light has been thrown on the subject. It appears that there are two fundamentally distinct types of single stocks—one of which gives rise only to single stocks, and the other which yields both doubles and singles, the proportion of doubles being from 53-57 per cent. How the doubles arose from the race of singles some two hundred and fifty years ago is unknown, but the ratio of doubles to singles yielded by these singles appears to be constant for all strains. In these ever-sporting singles it has been proved that all the pollen grains and some of the ovules lack a
factor which produces singleness, and by the mating of such deficient pollen grains and ovules together the double-flowered form results. It has further been found that the double-flowered seedling grows more strongly than that of the single-flowered plant.
An official guide to the Botanic Gardens, Dominica, has recently been issued (price 6d.), to which we would direct the particular attention of all interested in botany and in the tropical economic products of the world. The guide consists of some forty-four pages, with a good index, a map of the gardens, and a number of interesting illustrations. The area under cultivation is now about 60 acres, and consists of the garden proper of 44 acres, with experiment grounds and nurseries. In the latter are raised the lime, cacao, mango, Para rubber, coffee, and other plants, which are supplied at cost price to the planting community, and it is here that the grafting of cacao, limes, etc., and other experiments are carried out which have made the Dominica Gardens renowned. To the botanist, however, the garden proper is the more important feature. Here may be seen a multitude of interesting and useful trees and shrubs remarkably well grown and displayed, and in the guide particulars of the various plants and notes on their economic value are given. In 1892, a year after the garden was formed, Mr. Joseph Jones was sent out from Kew, and has now been curator for thirty-three years. It is to his skill and devotion that Dominica now possesses for its size one of the finest tropical botanic gardens in the world. Mr. Jones is to be congratulated on having produced so excellent and useful a guide, which will be much appreciated.
DURING the past seven years the Canadian Government has published several reports on the peat bogs of the Dominion and the efforts it has made to develop
the peat industries (v. Nos. 30, 71, 151, and 154). A report now before us ("Investigations of the Peat Bogs and Peat Industry of Canada, 1911-12," by A. v. Anrep; Department of Mines, Canada, No. 266, Bulletin No. 9) deals with the amount and the quality of the peat contained in nine bogs situated along the line of the River St. Lawrence in the province of Quebec. It gives surface and section-maps of the bogs, and includes a detailed examination of the quality of the peat over the whole range of the bogs, which cover an area of about 34,000 acres. The portions of the various bogs suited for the manufacture of peat-moss litter on the one hand, or peat fuel on the other, are indicated on the maps which accompany the report. The author also considers in detail the engineering and commercial problems connected with the utilisation of the peat in primarily of local interest, one cannot fail, on reading the case of each bog. Although the report is it, to be struck with the contrast between the thoroughness with which the Canadian Government is grappling with the peat question and the apathy of Interesting statistics of the peat industries of the Irish Government towards the same problem. Sweden, Denmark, Holland, and Russia are given. Apart from the fact that Russia uses from 2 to 4 million tons of peat fuel yearly, it is of some interest,
especially to Irishmen, to learn that the Holmgaard factory at Naestved, in Denmark, uses about 5000 tons of peat briquettes yearly in the manufacture of glass.
THE Royal Observatory at Hong-Kong has issued its report for 1914, dealing with meteorological, magnetic, and time observations. The principal features of the weather during the year are said to be the absence of violent typhoon winds, the relatively high temperature in January, February, and March, and excessive rains in July, September, and November, with a relatively dry August, and a rainless January. The highest temperature was 94° on August 31, compared with 97° for the previous thirty-one years, and the lowest temperature was 47° on January 1, compared with 32° in previous records. July was by far the wettest month, with a rainfall of 26.31 in., and the total for the year was 100-22 in. The greatest wind velocity for any hour was forty-two miles on September 3, and the greatest squall velocity on the same day was at the rate of forty-eight miles an hour. A map of the Far East and the Daily Weather Report is regularly issued, containing observations from about forty stations in China, Indo-China, Japan, and the Philippines. A daily weather forecast is also given for Hong-Kong and district, the Formosa Channel, the south coast of China between Hong-Kong and Hainan, and the south coast of China between HongKong and Lamocks.

An important paper on the preparation and digestive properties of papain is communicated from the labora tory of organic chemistry, Bureau of Science, Manila, by Mr. David S. Pratt; it is published in the Philippine Journal of Science (vol. x., p. 1). Papain is the name given to the proteoclastic enzyme elaborated by Carica papaya, L., and is secreted in the milky latex that forms a prominent characteristic of the plant, The methods in use for preparing and drying the latex are described in some detail, and its digestive activity studied; suggestions are made for standardising the methods of evaluation. Although the market is in a way a limited one, the possibility of establishing a papain industry in the Philippine Islands should receive attention, as it does not necessitate a large investment of capital, and the time required is short balore returns may be expected.

NE of the many optical instruments which the English opticians have allowed the Germans to supply almost entirely is the saccharimeter. This instrument used to be made by Browning, but in late years nearly every instrument purchased in England has come from Berlin from the firm of Schmidt and Haensch, who make several designs of large and small instruments. It is therefore a pleasure to find an English firm-Messrs. Bellingham and Stanley, of London-making a saccharimeter which introduces valuable improvements on the German design. The one to which we refer is of the half-shadow type with quartz compensating wedges, but instead of the usual long wedge of which the movement is read direct by a scale and vernier, this one has a short wedge of larger angle. The wedge is moved by a screw, and the movement is read on a large drum with an open scale and sliding pointer.
The whole length of the scale is some 2 ft. instead of 1 or 2 in., and it can thus be read with great ease.
In instruments making use of a quartz wedge of the usual length (about 3 cm.), the scale is nearly always uneven, and unless calibrated introduces errors amounting to several tenths of a degree Ventzke. According to Landolt this is due to the quartz, which he describes as "a poor material optically"; he says that one seldom finds faultless plates, and that a pure wedge 3 cm. long is rare. Hence the value of the short wedge of Bellingham and Stanley which is less than half the usual length. The advantage of such a wedge, even if the quartz is not of special quality, is greater than would appear at first sight, since the field is due to the average effect of the whole of the light passed through the wedge, and this average will vary evenly through the small change of area of the wedge due to its movement, and thus the scale will be regular in spite of variations in the quartz; also it is easier to get repeated readings, owing to the greater ease with which the setting can be made with the fine adjustment given by the series, as compared with the usual rack and pinion motion. In fact, the
The optical work is of the first quality. The dividing line is sharp and clean, and the field evenly illuminated, that adjustment for equality can be made without ambiguity, and with corresponding accuracy. The makers calibrate the scale at a number of points by direct reading against a a polariser rotated on a divided circle. In the instrument examined the divisions were in half degrees "Ventzke" (of which 100 corre. spond to 34-68° of arc, for sodium light at 17.5° C.), and it was easy to estimate to tenths of a degree, i.e. to less than three minutes of arc. The design and workmanship were all that could be desired. The same firm is also making refractometers of the Abbe and Pulfrich type and other optical instruments.
OUR OVERSEAS MUSEUMS.
HE British Museum, the parent and model of the museums scattered throughout our Empire, stands alone in that it has no journal of its own wherein to record the work done by its staff, though from time to time special memoirs and reports are published by the Trustees. There is much to be said for the publication of a museum journal, and not the least important of its functions would be to afford the general public an index of the magnitude and scope of its work, which can now only be estimated by laborious compilation from the annual "blue-book or the publications of the various learned societies.
A measure of the nature of the work performed by the staff of a properly organised museum can be gauged by a survey of the journals and "records" relating to the museums of our colonies and of our Indian Empire. For the most part the contents of such journals are of necessity of a highly technical
character, as, for example, the series of papers in the "Records of the Indian Museum" for April. If any of these are to be chosen for special mention it must be the profusely illustrated "Contribution to a Knowledge of the Terrestrial Isopods of India," by Mr. W. E. Collinge, describing a collection of species new to science from the Madras Province of Southern India.
The Journal of the Federated Malay States Museums for March contains a valuable paper on the zoology of Koh Samui and Koh Pennan by Messrs. H. C. Robinson and C. Boden Kloss, and another on the plants therefrom by Prof. H. N. Ridley; while the April number contains a most interesting summary of Malay filigree work by Mr. I. H. N. Evans.
The thirteenth report of the Sarawak Museum contains a complete list of all the mosquitoes known from Borneo. The material for this was collected by the curator, Mr. J. C. Moulton-now on active service in France and determined by Mr. F. W. Edwards, of the British Museum.
The Report of the South African Museum contains a brief summary of the acquisitions of the Geological Department, some of which are of considerable importance, as, for example, the remains of a small dinosaur from Bushmanland, apparently allied to the Cretaceous dinosaurs, and which throw light on the age of the old land surface in the north-west of the Cape Province.
The Records of the Albany Museum for May contains seven papers, one of which, on the fleas infesting various wild South African mammals, may prove of more importance than would appear at first sight. All these institutions appear to be in a flourishing condition, but this is evidently far from true of the Rhodesia Museum, Bulawayo, which, in its thirteenth annual report, complains bitterly of the lack of funds. So seriously has its income fallen off that it has been necessary not only to reduce its staff, but to suspend even work necessary to ensure the well-being of the collections. We trust that better days are in store for the Albany Museum.
ENTOMOLOGICAL WORK IN CANADA. ECENT publications of the Entomological Branch of the Canadian Department of Agriculture illustrate the wide field of the activities of Dr. Gordon Hewitt and his staff and the advances they are making in our knowledge of the control of insects.
In the Canadian Entomologist for March, 1915, Dr. Hewitt discusses the hibernation of the house-fly in a paper that is of very great topical value at the moment in this country; he finds that the maggots pupate at depths up to 2 ft. below and away from a manure heap, where this is situated on sandy loam; he finds also that the flies emerge from this situation. Discussing the hibernation of the insect, he reiterates his belief that it is as the adult that they live over the winter in northern latitudes.
In the Transactions of the Royal Society of Canada for September, 1914, Dr. Hewitt describes observations on the feeding of the stable-fly, Stomoxys calcitrans, which will be of value to those seeking to fix the rôle this insect plays in the dissemination of disease, notably of infantile paralysis.
A circular of the Department of Agriculture contains the instructions to importers of trees, plants, and other nursery stock into Canada; it explains clearly and simply what the importer has to do, and reprints the text of the Act. Another circular deals with the control of locusts in eastern Canada; the author, A. Gibson, uses the term locust for grasshopper, whereas
it is better restricted to the migratory grasshoppers; but the circular is for popular use, and the term is probably so used in eastern Canada.
The most interesting point is the value of adding lemon juice to the poisoned bait for killing the insects; the method originated in Kansas, and works well in Canada.
In Bulletin No. 9 Mr. Gibson deals with the Army worm Cirphis unipuncta, an insect which caused a loss of 50,000l. in Ontario alone. He emphasises the great importance of co-operation among farmers in dealing with outbreaks promptly and thoroughly by means of trenching, poisoning, and rolling. It is possible that something better could be done with moth trapping on the "Andres Maire" system, which has proved successful elsewhere. The bulletin is a thoroughly practical, useful piece of work, and the Department evidently has the confidence of the farming community in Canada.

THE SUPPLY OF OPTICAL GLASS.
THE subject of the supply of optical glass and the needs and opportunities offered to the optical trade, by war and after-war conditions, still continues to attract the attention which it deserves. On July 16 an important conference was held at the London Chamber of Commerce between the Court and representatives of the Spectacle Makers' Company and The representatives of the chamber and of the trade. conference was convened by the company, and the chair was taken by the master, Sir J. F. L. Rolleston, M.P. There were also present Lord Southwark, president of the Chamber of Commerce, Viscount Hill, Sir William Hart Dyke, Sir Marcus Samuel, Dr. R. M. Walmsley, and others. The chairman opened in the proceedings, and the course of his speech explained how the debate in the House of Commons on optical matters which was initiated by Sir Philip Magnus on May 19, and in which several well-informed members, including the chairman, were prepared to take part, was interrupted and practically closured by the Prime Minister's very important announcement on "Coalition Government." He also referred to various matters to which we have directed the attention of our readers as they
arose.
Lord Southwark, in opening the discussion, referred to the fact that he was not only the president of the chamber, but also a past-master of the Skinners' Company, which is so closely associated with the Northampton Polytechnic Institute and its work. He emphasised the importance of concerted action and the help which the City companies could give, and referred also to the valuable assistance which could be rendered by the chamber. In the discussion which followed, it was understood that the remarks made by trade members should not be reported. Dr. Walmsley, who was called upon to speak early in the debate, explained the points referred to in his letter to the Times of April 28, and indicated the importance of the opportunities which have now arisen for the recapture of those branches of the optical instrument trade which were so heavily handicapped before the war. He pointed out that this was worthy of a very earnest effort, and he referred particularly to the value of the trade in the employment of highly skilled labour, which forms so important an item in the production of complicated optical instruments, such as microscopes, etc. He also dwelt upon the necessity for training designers and computers. The importance of the spectaclemaking branch of the trade was fully insisted upon, and eventually it was decided, on the motion of Lord
Southwark, at the suggestion of Sir William Hart Dyke, to appoint a joint committee of the Spectacle Makers' Company and the London Chamber of Commerce to study the questions at issue in all their bearings.
THE GOVERNMENT SCHEME FOR THE ORGANISATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL
WE gave in our issue of May 20 a detailed report
of speeches made in the House of Commons when the Government scheme for the formation of an Advisory Council concerned with industrial and scientific research was outlined by Mr. J. A. Pease, then President of the Board of Education. Since that time Mr. Arthur Henderson has succeeded Mr. Pease at the Board, and he has just issued as a White Paper (Cd. 8005, priced.) a statement of the need and nature of a scheme which will secure scientific foundations for national industries in the future. The paper is here reprinted.
(1) There is a strong consensus of opinion among persons engaged both in science and in industry that a special need exists at the present time for new machinery and for additional State assistance in order to promote and organise scientific research with a view especially to its application to trade and industry. It is well-known that many of our industries have since the outbreak of war suffered through our inability to produce at home certain articles and materials required in trade processes, the manufacture of which has become localised abroad, and particularly in Germany, because science has there been more thoroughly and effectively applied to the solution of scientific problems bearing on trade and industry and to the elaboration of economical and improved processes of manufacture. It is impossible to contemplate without considerable apprehension the situation which will arise at the end of the war unless our scientific resources have previously been enlarged and organised to meet it. It appears incontrovertible that if we are to advance or even maintain our industrial position we must as a nation aim at such a development of scientific and industrial research as will place us in a position to expand and strengthen our industries and to compete successfully with the most highly organised of our rivals. The difficulties of advancing on these lines during the war are obvious and are not under-estimated, but we cannot hope to improvise an effective system at the moment when hostilities cease, and unless during the present period we are able to make a substantial advance we shall certainly be unable to do what is necessary in the equally difficult period of reconstruction which will follow the war. (2) The present scheme is designed to establish a permanent organisation for the promotion of industrial and scientific research.
It is in no way intended that it should replace or interfere with the arrangements which have been or may be made by the War Office or Admiralty or Ministry of Munitions to obtain scientific advice and investigation in connection with the provision of munitions of war. It is, of course, obvious that at the present moment it is essential that the War Office, the Admiralty, and the Ministry of Munitions should continue to make their own direct arrangements with scientific men and institutions with the least possible delay.
(3) It is clearly desirable that the scheme should operate over the kingdom as a whole with as little regard as possible to the Tweed and the Irish Channel.
The research done should be for the kingdom as a whole, and there should be complete liberty to utilise the most effective institutions and investigators avail able, irrespective of their location in England, Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. There must therefore be a single fund for the assistance of research, under a single responsible body.
(4) The scheme accordingly provides for the establishment of :
(a) A Committee of the Privy Council responsible for the expenditure of any new moneys provided by Parliament for scientific and industrial research;
(b) A small Advisory Council responsible to the Committee of Council and composed mainly of eminent scientific men and men actually engaged in industries dependent upon scientific research.
(5) The Committee of Council will consist of the Lord President, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Secretary for Scotland, the President of the Board of Trade, the President of the Board of Education (who will be vice-president of the Committee), the Chief Secretary for Ireland, together with such other Ministers and individual Members of the Council as it may be thought desirable to add.
The first non-official members of the Committee will be:-The Right Hon. Viscount Haldane of Cloan, O.M., K.T., F.R.S., the Right Hon. Arthur H. D. Acland, and the Right Hon. Joseph A. Pease, M.P.
The President of the Board of Education answer in the House of Commons for the sub-head on the Vote, which will be accounted for by the Treasury under Class IV., Vote 7, "Scientific Investigations, etc."
It is obvious that the organisation and development of research is a matter which greatly affects the public educational systems of the kingdom. A great part of all research will necessarily be done in universities and colleges which are already aided by the State, and the supply and training of a sufficient number of young persons competent to undertake research can only be secured through the public system of education. (6) The primary functions of the Advisory Council will be to advise the Committee of Council on :
(i) Proposals for instituting specific researches; (ii) Proposals for establishing or developing special institutions or departments of existing institutions for the scientific study of problems affecting particular industries and trades;
(iii) The establishment and award of research studentships and fellowships.
The Advisory Council will also be available, if requested, to advise the several Education Departments as to the steps which should be taken for increasing the supply of workers competent to undertake scientific research.
Arrangements will be made by which the Council will keep in close touch with all Government Departments concerned with or interested in scientific research and by which the Council will have regard to the research work which is being done or may be done by the National Physical Laboratory.
(7) It is essential that the Advisory Council should act in intimate co-operation with the Royal Society and the existing scientific or professional associations, societies, and institutes, as well as with the universities, technical institutions, and other institutions in which research is or can be efficiently conducted.
It is proposed to ask the Royal Society and the principal scientific and professional associations, societies and institutes to undertake the function of initiating proposals for the consideration of the Advi sory Council, and a regular procedure for inviting and collecting proposals will be established. The Advisory Council will also be at liberty to receive

"Will she, or won't she?" Here is a question that has dominated the tabloid newspapers in Britain these past few weeks, as Cheryl Cole, a presenter of the 'X Factor' talent show and formerly of girl band, 'Girls Aloud', decides whether to leave the show and seek her fortune in the United States. She has already made a small fortune here!
If she does depart these shores, it will be because the brains behind Britain's most popular TV show, her fellow presenter, Simon Cowell, has persuaded her that the "America has got talent" show is her next logical step. If she does, she will also follow in the footsteps of another Brit, Piers Morgan, who has just stepped across the pond – and into the venerable shoes of Larry King over at CNN.
And if she does, I will not watch the 'X Factor', when it returns to our screens, as the Swallows depart, next autumn.
As Cheryl Cole and her fellow judges presided over the final "X Factor", last weekend, some twenty million Britons tuned in to watch the show. Translated that is a quarter of the population of this small island, and is remarkable for many reasons – not least because all of the naysayers had long ago written off the collective national experience of switching on to a show in their millions. It happens because "X Factor" is live, and because in these dark and depressing times, the Saturday show, at peak time, is an exercise in escapism par excellence. I guess our experience is a common one. We all gather on the sofa, fire burning in the grate – and switch on.
Does "X Factor" show case original talent? Well, yes in a way. Does it encourage original music and original musicians? No, not really. There is something altogether predictable about the line up of boys bands and others, all singing from song sheets that are not their own. But, hey! Who wants to be an old misery! The punters love the show – and they, like me – love Cheryl Cole.
Not that I have met her of course, or even seen her from a distance. I love Cheryl though because she is incredibly attractive, graceful and clearly lacks side. I also love Cheryl because she comes from South Shields, a working class town in the North East of England, which was also once home to my grandparents. In fact Cheryl hails from what we here in Britain call a "very ordinary background". Her family live in a council house, and Cheryl has been known to react when others have referred disparagingly to her humble background. And since she cannot do any wrong in my eyes, I quite understand.
Her home town of South Shields must be incredibly proud of her. Once upon a time most people there worked in the Wearside shipyards, or at Westoe Colliery, whose huge headgear I still remember as a child. South Shields has also been home to one of Britain's first immigrant communities – the descendants of Yemeni and Somali sailors who first settled in the town two or three hundred years ago.
People who live in South Shields and the other North East towns the cluster along the coast are known throughout the World as 'Geordies'. Warm, friendly, their accent is deemed the most trustworthy of any English accent according to a variety of market surveys, which may explain why we hear the Geordie accent in more and more advertisements. Cheryl Cole is as Geordie as they come, which for all of the reasons I have mentioned should immediately recommend herself to an American audience.
Except that I suspect many Americans will simply not be able to comprehend much of what she has to say at all. This you see, is a difficult accent for foreigners to understand Two earlier Geordie missionaries to America, comedians Ant & Dec couldn't appear without strap line translations. Which may of course be a fate that awaits our Cheryl?
This cannot be allowed to happen! The fragrant Cheryl must remain here! I feel a campaign coming on. And if she allows herself to be persuaded into taking elocution lessons, this would be the ultimate betrayal.

Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP)
Back to school the perfect time to talk online safety
As holidays end and a new school year begins, young people will once again be spending more time socialising, sharing and exploring their creativity online.
There's never been a better time for parents and young people to talk about staying safe online, which is why the Child Exploitation and Online Protection CEOP Centre have released an enhanced new app, ClickCEOP, to provide support and advice on online safety.
Everyone on Facebook in the UK can have direct access to CEOP's advice and reporting centre ClickCEOP – from their homepage. The app provides the very latest help on online safety as well as a dedicated facility for reporting instances of suspected grooming or inappropriate sexual behaviour.
CEOP has historically seen increases in public reports at this time of the year via the online ClickCEOP button, from a range of online services popular with young people. Last year, public reports to CEOP across all networks and sources increased by 35% between August and September.
ClickCEOP is a free, independent service that provides all users with direct one-click access to not only help and advice on issues such as cyberbullying, viruses, hacking etc, but also the chance to report any threats direct to CEOP.
Access to ClickCEOP is provided via an application that users can add or bookmark so that it appears on their Timeline. This is not only a constant source of help and reassurance for them but also as a strong visual signal to their friends, family and others that they are in control online.
In 2011, social networking accounted for more than 20% of all time spent online, in part driven by the growth of Facebook which is now used by over 30 million people in the UK. As well as knowing how to access the advice and guidance available within Facebook's Family Safety Centre at facebook.com/help, it is important that children and parents also know how to quickly report direct to the Centre and use Facebook's reporting tools.
Peter Davies, Chief Executive at the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Centre, said: "ClickCEOP has been enormously successful at giving young people and parents easy access to support when something happens online that makes them feel uncomfortable or when something goes wrong.
"I'm extremely pleased with the collaboration with Facebook that has led to the development of the app and I'd urge all Facebook's young users and their parents to download it. We continue to have a positive dialogue with Facebook and many online providers around ensuring online environments are as safe as they can be for children.
"Children's safety online is everybody's business. It is only through industry, police, parents and young people themselves that we can all keep safe online."
Simon Milner, UK Director of Policy at Facebook, said:
"Nothing is more important to Facebook than the safety of the people using our service, young or old. The start of a new school year is a great time for teenagers and their parents to visit our Family Safety Centre at facebook.com/safety and ClickCEOP to get tips on how to keep safe while enjoying out service. We're proud to work with CEOP to promote their excellent advice and support for our users."

Rained out, I hustled my electric hedge trimmers and extension cords downhill under the pavilion. Darn, all I needed was thirty more minutes to prune my last three rows of lavender shrubs.
I was much younger when we planted that west plot in 2008. What glorious work and fun it was to break new ground—to make a vision happen with tribes of women who helped develop my lavender farm.
Now my hinges hurt when I bend. And the old lavender plants aren't as supple, either. They've grown woody and brittle, succumbed to neglect, Queen Anne's Lace and other native seeds.
But I see signs of life, empathize with green leaflets in the shrubs' crown, so I'll give them another season in hopes they bloom.
For bees love lavandula angustafolia, commonly known as English lavender. My new bees will appreciate lavandula's flowers come July. Talk about nectar flow.
I ordered only one bee package this year. After beekeeping three hives last summer and fall, I'll avoid losing numerous hives again in one swoop.
I've learned it's best to let go something you love in small portions, like we do belongings of a departed loved one. Sue, a good friend, lost a toddler son, then years later a teenaged daughter. A few weeks ago when I visited Sue, she led me upstairs to her daughter's bedroom, freshly painted and decorated with new and old things left behind.
We stood on hallowed ground alive with memories, love, and courage. And profound sorrow.
Every parent, pet owner, and grower of plants and food knows the disappointment in losing what we've nurtured with all our mind, strength, and spirit. Yet, we realize everything has a lifespan.
In my neck of the woods, lavender seldom celebrates a tenth birthday. Of the three lavender fields we planted, only two partial plots remain.
After dinner featuring our fresh asparagus with cashews, I determined to finish those last three rows, rain or shine.
Walking up the hill I waved to our neighbor Ron. His tractor clanked away tilling the soil where he had removed hundreds of Grosso shrubs a few days prior. Yep, Grosso means "big", so we hired a pro for the job.
Ron's lost two sons, "boys" who worked by his side in their landscape business. I imagine he misses them most this time of year.
At the sight and scent of turned soil I envisioned a new field of Big Blue Stem and Indian Grass swaying in the wind—less maintenance in the long haul. That's the plan.
Yet, one never knows what the future holds. As one dream is fulfilled and fades, another steps on stage in passing.
Dear Reader, the rain held off until the old girls stood shorn and delivered of dead wood. I have a feeling this is their last summer with us. I see Big Blue Stem and Indian Grass instead.
This I believe: for every loss there is a gain. God, grant us grace and eyes to see it.

3 Reasons Chipotle's Business Is On Fire
Jul. 21, 2014, 4:12 PM
Chipotle Instagram
Chipotle is thriving.
Shares are soaring after the company reported earnings that exceeded estimates.
The company's strategy has helped it overtake competitors, Brian Sozzi at Belus Capital Advisors wrote in a note to clients earlier last year.
Chipotle is even eroding McDonald's market share despite being a much younger company.
Sozzi shares a few reasons why Chipotle is dominating.
1. Sticking to a classic menu. While McDonald's and Taco Bell tack on new menu items to entice customers, Chipotle has stuck to the same menu since it opened. The menu at McDonald's has grown 70% since 2007, Bloomberg reported last year. Chipotle does a few things really well, making it easier to execute and reduce customer wait times.
2. Making lines faster. Chipotle has aggressively worked to reduce wait times during peak periods. Meanwhile, McDonald's is struggling with the longest drive-thru wait times in decades. Competitor Panera Bread has also dealt with a customer-service issues, and has replaced some workers with kiosks. Overloaded menus make it difficult for operations to run smoothly, Sozzi says.
3. Emphasizing an ethical menu. Chipotle is eliminating GMOs from its menu and has long boasted about its antibiotic-free meats. As a result, "people feel better about eating at Chipotle and share with others, personally or on social media, that positive experience," Sozzi writes.

The definition of an arrest is the processes of removing an individual's personal freedoms as a either a precaution in a criminal investigation or a punishment for a crime.
It is also carried out in order to present the arrested person (arrests) to a procedure as mandated by the criminal justice system.
Who Legally Can Make an Arrest?
According to United States law, the police, army personnel and other governing bodies have the authority to carry out an arrest. With the exception of North Carolina residents, all American citizens can also arrest a criminal suspect with whats called a citizens arrest.
The first thing that has to happen in order to be legally arrested is you have to be suspected of a crime. The arresting officer must explain first tell you the offense that you are being arrested for, then you have to be read your Miranda rights. Depending on the situation you may, or may not, then be handcuffed.
You will then be brought into the local police state where you will be held for further question. After you are questioned, you will then be searched thoroughly and the police will have access to your possessions while you are under their custody.
If a crime has not been officially charged to you, you may only legally be detained for 24 hours.
Once in custody, you will want to be aware of your Miranda rights in order to prevent any maltreatment or abuse from your local police department.
You have the right to be silent.
You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, then one will be appointed to you.
If you are being questioned, you have the right to stop the examination at any time until you have had a chance to speak with your attorney.
If you are sick or injured, you have the right to medical assistance.
You also have the right to contact someone regarding your whereabouts.
If you happen to get arrested, make sure not to make any threats, panic, or get into an altercation with the arresting officer. The most important thing to do is to make sure to be on time to all of your court mandated hearings.
If you have been placed under arrest, make sure that you know your rights. You must be aware of what legally can be tolerated from law enforcement, as you will not want to be taken advantage of.

The Democratic Party Should Be Thankful For Bernie Sanders
Reno Berkeley
The Democratic Party has spent the majority of the primary season doing its best to depict Bernie Sanders as someone who has never supported it. Hillary Clinton herself has attempted to smear him as someone who was absent during the fight for progressive agendas, namely healthcare in the 1990s.
Truth be told, the Democratic Party leadership should be thanking Bernie Sanders for all of the support and help he has provided in the past. Instead, he's been cast as a pariah, a party crasher to Hillary Clinton's coronation.
Before Sanders joined the primary race for the Democratic nomination, he first had to officially become a Democrat. He'd spent he entire career eschewing the labels and identified as politically independent. Long-time members of the party took issue with his sudden change and accused him of using the party for his own benefit. The truth, however, is very, very different.
He has been a major force in both the House and the Senate since he first came to Washington DC in 1990. Clinton supporters who claim he was ineffective in Congress, they are either grossly misinformed or not being honest.
When he was first elected to Congress in 1990, Sanders was looked upon with a dubious eye by both Republicans and Democrats. At the time, it was difficult for someone who was not affiliated with a party to be effective in Congress. Bernie proved them wrong. During his time as a Representative, Sanders became known as the Amendment King. No one else passed as many roll-call amendments to legislation than he did. Many of those amendments directly benefited the American people. As Zaid Jilani of Alternet writes, the amendments Sanders got passed as a Representative were very progressive in nature.
"Sanders did something particularly original, which was that he passed amendments that were exclusively progressive, advancing goals such as reducing poverty and helping the environment."
As a Congressman, he managed to garner support from Democratic -- whom he sided with most of the time -- and conservative lawmakers.
Take the bill from 2001, H.R. 3338, which addressed recovery appropriations in response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Sanders' amendment succeeded in getting $100 million in additional funding for federally qualified community health centers to help those without medical coverage get the care they needed.
Remember the uproar about the government trying to use the USA Patriot Act to spy on American citizens' library records or book store customer lists? Bernie Sanders had an amendment for that, which prohibited funds from the bill from being used to spy on Americans.
The People's War blog lists the accomplishments Sanders has achieved in Congress, which are impressive considering he was not a member of the Democratic Party.
During his ten years in the Senate Sanders has introduced 362 bills and had three of those become law. And yes, one of those bills concerned renaming post offices. The second one to become law, however, was the Veterans' Compensation Cost-of-Living Adjustment Act of 2013, which gave veterans a cost-of-living increase in benefits.
The veterans' cost-of-living bill had bipartisan support, with nine Democrats and eight Republicans -- a nearly even split.
But while Clinton supporters criticize Sanders for "only" getting a post office renamed, Hillary Clinton's record in the Senate was no better. Out of 417 bills she introduced in her eight years in office, only three of those became law, one of which renamed a post office while another renamed a highway in New York.
Since joining the Senate in 2006, Sanders has caucused with Democrats by and large. He attended and spoke at fundraisers hosted by the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee. He paid dues to the DSCC, and for all intents and purposes, was a Democrat. The only difference was, he wasn't a card-carrying member.
Even CNN, which has shown bias against him this primary season, wrote just how beneficial Sanders has been for the Democratic party. In attendance at fundraisers were often members of the financial sectors. Although he was never critical of the financial sector in any of his speeches, CNN notes that some industry players were surprised at his presence at these retreats.
"Nobody was more surprised that Bernie was there than the donors were."
And although Sanders is critical of big money fundraising efforts he is pragmatic enough to understand it is a necessary element in running a successful campaign. In return, Sanders did benefit from from Democratic Party assistance during his campaigns.
But perhaps the biggest reason that the Democratic Party should be thankful for Sanders is how much awareness he has generated in elections and politics. For more than 25 years, Sanders was a lone voice in Congress, warning of bad trade deals, foreign wars, and a shrinking middle class. He has energized the young and old alike with his populist message. He has forced Americans to take take a good, long look at the country objectively, warts and all, and that is ultimately a good thing.
"I hold it that a little rebellion, now and then, is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical."
The Democratic National Committee missed a golden opportunity to take advantage of Bernie Sanders' popularity to begin a national dialogue about bringing the party into the 21st Century. Instead, the Democratic Party stubbornly toes the establishment line, resisting the progressive change that Bernie Sanders could usher in.

There are no visible hallmarks on either collar.
This whip came from Hooton Pagnell in Yorkshire together with two others that belonged to Julia Warde-Aldam, a previous owner of the estate.
Between the collars the grip of the whip is covered in leather with a finely stitched seam, sadly there is an inch long piece of leather missing - please see the images.
The whip has its original lash which is rather fragile.


Appeal from the Circuit Court, Broward County, J. Leonard Fleet, J.
G. William Bissett of Preddy, Kutner, Hardy, Rubinoff, Brown Thompson, Miami, for appellants.
Gilbert E. Theissen of Walsh, Theissen and Boyd, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellee.
ROBINSON, STEVEN D., Associate Judge.
John Andrews, as personal representative of the Estate of Casey Andrews, and John Andrews and Lynn Andrews, his parents, individually, appeal from an adverse summary final judgment in favor of the City of Margate (City). The plaintiffs had alleged that the City, among other defendants, had acted negligently, that its negligence was a proximate cause of the accident and, therefore, it was liable for Casey Andrews' death.
While riding his bicycle to school, twelve-year-old Casey was struck and killed by a cement truck, about sixty feet beyond a Margate intersection staffed by three crossing guards employed by the City. As he approached the intersection, he dismounted and remounted, riding first across West Atlantic Boulevard and then, after dismounting and remounting again, across State Road 7, up a wheelchair/bicycle ramp, and past a light pole on the outer edge of the sidewalk. His friend, following behind, observed that, when Casey went around the light pole, he began to wobble, apparently causing him to enter the street as he crossed an intersecting sloped driveway.
None of the crossing guards, and particularly Catherine Youron, who was closest to the accident position, remembers seeing Casey or his friends passing across the intersection. It was normal for Mrs. Youron to see children riding their bicycles across the intersection. She testified at her deposition that she was never instructed by her employer, the City, that doing so was unsafe.
At the hearing on summary judgment, the plaintiffs referred in the record to a number of policy and safety documents evidencing two relevant duties. First, in the City's job description, crossing guards were to "guide children across streets at designated school crossings, to protect them from the hazards of vehicular traffic," and "to be the eyes and ears for the children, to control and guide them to and from their destinations without incident." Second, as described by plaintiffs' expert, Dr. Fogarty, in his affidavit, normal guidelines regarding the safe crossing of bicyclists require them to dismount and walk their bicycles across an intersection within the confines of a crosswalk. Dr. Fogarty then went on and developed a causal link between Casey's not dismounting and his instability at the accident position. He said, "such action allowed for the bicyclist, Casey Andrews, to arrive at the far-side curbing at a speed and under such dangerous control conditions that the curb ramp in its proximity to a Florida Power Light Company pole resulted in a `wobbling' response . . . with ultimate demonstration of control loss and movement into the street."
The question of whether a defendant's negligence is the "proximate cause of the injury is generally one for the jury unless reasonable men could not differ in their determination of that question." Helman v. Seaboard Coast Line R. Co., 349 So.2d 1187, 1189 (Fla. 1977). Bradford v. Bernstein, 510 So.2d 1204 (Fla. 2d DCA 1987), characterized the trial court's rejection of the same type of expert opinion as a weighing of the evidence as to causation. Whether the cause of an injury is proximate depends on its foreseeability. Stahl v. Metropolitan Dade County, 438 So.2d 14 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983). In Stahl, bicyclists' characteristics were described to exemplify what one with a duty toward bicyclists would be expected to foresee. It pointed out that bicyclists have certain momentum problems as they travel along, that they cannot be expected to stop quickly and that, upon encountering hazards along their way, they must sometimes detour quickly if they cannot stop.
Thus, an employee of the City, or the City that hired and trained her, could reasonably be found negligent by a jury if the employee neglected her duty to require a school child such as Casey to walk his bicycle at the busy intersection. A jury could also find that a foreseeable risk existed both within and at hazards immediately beyond the intersection. It simply cannot be said that the instant record fails to reflect the existence of genuine issues of material fact regarding "proximate cause." Thus, summary judgment was not proper.
GLICKSTEIN and GUNTHER, JJ., concur.

By spring, the Learning Express Toys store in Geneva Commons will have a new home with nearby space for hosting more outdoor events for children and their families.
The store, which presently is at 610 Commons Drive, still will stay in the mall, but is moving to a smaller indoor space, with closer proximity to the mall's new outdoor space.
Last year, the Geneva Commons mall created a new outdoor gathering space for customers where they host summer concerts, movie nights and other events.
Learning Express Geneva owner John Flanagan hopes that outdoor space soon will be host to weekly events for his store, including game nights, story times and more.
"We're going to go a little bit smaller and in a lot better location," Flanagan said. "We'll be in the center of everything at the Commons."
Flanagan says he likes his current space, which has served the store well since it moved into Geneva Commons nine years ago.
However, with its main customer base being children, Flanagan said he never liked the proximity to the busy mall drive, feeling it was a little too close to host outdoor events.
With the new space, he said, the store still will be near the drive, but it will just be a walk across the road to get to the new outdoor commons area.
In that area, there are tables, where he hopes the weekly game nights and toy trading nights will occur. There also is a fire pit and seating area, where he envisions nighttime story times near the fire.
There is a big, green space that is presently being used as a skating rink at the mall. That will be used for outdoor play dates, demos, soccer clinics hosted by local clubs, a kids' yoga clinic and more.
"We're going to try to use that as much as possible," he said.
The new location presently is being built out from two stores between Ravenna Nails at 1418 Commons Drive and Azar Jewelers, 1424 Commons Drive.
When complete, he said, it will be about 2,600 square feet, smaller than the current location, which will allow the store to be more manageable.
"It will keep our cost down having a smaller space in the mall, and our inventory lower, so overall cost-wise it goes down so we can focus on bringing in new and better products," Flanagan said.
He hopes to use some of the savings for more costumed character events and similar happenings that make Learning Express the small, local toy store that people love.
"A lot of people said don't go smaller, but I know what sells and this will be good," he said.

I've been spontaneous and extravagant, as per usual, and booked a luxury family holiday to Essouira, Morocco. It will be my fourth visit to this magical country, the last one being 15 years ago, long before the likes of Easyjet started cashing in on city breaks to Marrakesh. So it is with some trepidation that i make this return. I almost fear what I'll be met with, now that the tourists visit in drones. It is for the same reason that I won't make a return trip to Koh Samui, which was by far the most amazing travel experience of my teens, as I've heard there is now a McDonalds on the island and i can't think of anything worse.
My first visit to Morocco was nearly 20 years ago to a remote coastal town in the north of the country called Larache. I stayed with locals and lived as they did, collecting fresh 'hobz' from the communal bakery every morning, mooching around the 'medina' most days to shop for tagine ingredients and getting scrubbed to screaming point at the local hamam. Mint tea was on tap and so were the giant grilled sardines at the beach. That summer I developed a taste for the brand new culture I had discovered and wanted to delve deeper so I started studying Arabic at university in London and spent the following summer in Fez, learning both Standard Arabic and Moroccan Arabic.
In August 1999 i found myself at the Gnawa music festival in Essouira, Morocco's answer to Womad. It was a profound experience for me, a magical time i will never forget. The town fills with national and international music lovers, travelling to this hippy hangout for the intoxicating rhythm of the traditional folk music. The distinct sound of the metal maracas accompany a rolling head whose repetitive beats are said to hypnotise those who listen for long enough; locals would warn only half in jest "Lock your wives away or they fall under the spell of the music." After the festival ended each night there would be invites back to homes for continued jamming sessions and stories of witchcraft would be told in a haze of marajuana smoke , leaving us all wide-eyed in wonder. Much of the Gnawa festival is a distant memory but there are parts I recall vividly.
This visit will be somewhat different.
My family consists of husband Richard, 9 year-old August and our new addition, Olive, who is 3 months old. The boys will be chasing waves with a surfboard, and Olive and I will be roaming the souks, in search of treasures.

The Artistry Of Lancashire: Bonkers Clutterbucks
Lockdown has, for some, provided the perfect opportunity to indulge in creative projects often left aside until there is more time to spare. Indeed, it is outstanding how much resource has been available online to those knowing where to look. From virtual gallery tours to Zoom master classes in arts and crafts, creativity has become a new pastime for many.

I've taken time to discover more about the art world in Lancashire, as part of my own exploration of the county and what it has to offer. I have stumbled, albeit online, across galleries, craft shops, venues and of course workshops and artists galore - and now I want to share my discoveries with you, the readers, to showcase more of the Lancashire artistic talent that the county boasts.
The first stop is the delightfully named husband and wife combo of Kate and Peter, known collectively as Bonkers Clutterbucks. Based in the Rossendale Valley, the work created in the studio of their home, a former corn warehouse, extends to adorn the decor of the interior: one imagines an immersive gallery experience, a treasure trove of delight.
Platform Gallery Stall
For those unfamiliar with their work, they describe it as a collection of curios sourced from vintage fairs and flea markets; up-cycled using a diverse range of materials to create objects that draw inspiration from whimsical modes of transport, circuses, folklore and hot air balloons. Therefore, a vintage tin or another otherwise useless trinket discovered in an antique shop can be transformed into a diorama featuring an anthropomorphic animal in period costume inhabiting an enchanted forest or hedgerow.

Many could share the excitement Kate and Peter experience as they forage through the antique shops for the next knick-knack to inspire a piece of work. As expected, when working to a commission, sourcing the specific item you have in mind is a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Lockdown of course has impacted their family. It has brought some positives, such as that little bit of extra time, so sought after as artists who feel they've never enough. Peter has been shielding throughout and has been employed in his spare time in cleaning and painting the studio. Thankfully they have had a steady stream of orders to keep them busy - a big demand for creative kits for example, likely received from those similar to the couple's daughters, who've been sourcing projects online and using the household stock of art materials and fabrics to indulge their creative whims. Kate and Peter have set up full exhibition stalls at home, to hold virtual art fairs in lieu of all the cancelled shows they were set to attend.
Whilst they do have concern about how the art world will adapt to the "new normal" post lockdown, they have used the period of isolation to devise ever more innovative ideas and ways to bring their products to the market. Even mealtimes have become a daily "creative event" and their regular walks have sustained their imagination. Moorland peppered with cotton grass, dry stone walls lining deep gorges and wild garlic sprouting as the bluebells die away has provided them with a "real tonic" keeping them happy and healthy in mind and body.
Rabbit diorama
They believe that Lancashire makers are genuinely conscious of their surrounding environment, motivated to reduce plastic waste and repurpose otherwise unnecessary items. An example is the work of Thrift Design who creates pheasants, squirrels and badgers from cardboard and packaging waste. In the past decade, as well as a move towards environmental sustainability and supporting local business and economy by buying local, they feel a new bond with fellow creators through the expanded use of social media forging that connection. A decade ago they would only encounter fellow artists through annual events such as Rossendale Reveal, during which artists would throw open their studios doors to welcome in the public.
Now with events such as Etsy Made Local: Preston, Hopeful & Glorious and the Festival of Making: Blackburn, there is an established community network of mutual support and encouragement among the local artists.
Kate and Peter also draw inspiration from contemporary artists, particularly the pen and ink illustrated books of Edward Gorey, the brooding cinematic landscapes of Scottish-born figurative painter, Peter Doig, the illustrations of John Burningham which accompany his children's books and the ceramics of Devon-based Vicky Lindo. If they could invite any artist to share some quality time with them, Peter would chose Van Gogh, fascinated by Van Gogh's letters to his brother Theo, documenting his artistic journey, and Kate would invite Grayson Perry: his Monday night Art Club on Channel 4 has become a weekly lockdown staple and highlight for the family.
Kate & Peter
Kate and Peter also do large scale creative projects and commissions, sometimes funded by groups such as Mirador & Arts Council England. They collaborated with other artists on a project called Behind The Wall, exploring the history of the Standfast & Barracks print works in Lancaster which had been a temporary internment camp during WW1. They built a clock tower and time machine which was displayed at Lancaster museum. Recently they have worked with schools located along the banks of the River Ribble, one rural, one in Preston. This was a Heritage Lottery funded project with Mirador (http://miradorarts.co.uk/) exploring the history of the river, in which they created a huge board game based on the Roman settlement at Ribchester. They worked with the schools and the River Ribble Trust to promote the preservation of the river, keeping it clean.
In usual times their work can be seen in the Craft and Design Centre in Leeds City Art Gallery, or at the Platform Gallery, Clitheroe. Alternatively, you can view and purchase their work via Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/bonkersclutterbucks/) Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/BonkersClutterbucks) and Folksy (https://folksy.com/shops/BonkersClutterbucks).
For now, let the intricate and beautiful work of this talented pair arouse your own creativity and visit their website (https://bonkersclutterbucks.com/) or follow them on Twitter (@bonkersclutter) for updates and new products that I'm sure will inspire, delight and be snatched up quickly to the lucky purchasers.

Abstract. We derive a formula that expresses the local spin and field operators of fundamental graded models in terms of the elements of the monodromy matrix. This formula is a quantum analogue of the classical inverse scattering transform. It applies to fundamental spin chains, such as the XYZ chain, and to a number of important exactly solvable models of strongly correlated electrons, such as the supersymmetric $t$-$J$ model or the the EKS model.
