Joe McGann to replace Jimmy Nail in principal casting announced for Sting's The Last Ship Musical
Principal casting has been announced for the UK premiere of The Last Ship musical by Sting – which is to premiere in the UK at Northern Stage in Newcastle on 12th March 2018, before embarking on a major UK and Ireland tour. The casting of Joe McGann (Jackie White), Charlie Hardwick (Peggy White), Richard Fleeshman (Gideon Fletcher) and Frances McNamee (Meg Dawson) has today been announced.
Joe McGann will now take on the role of Jackie White, despite the previous announcement that Jimmy Nail would be playing the role he originated on Broadway.Nail said: "I was very much looking forward to appearing in Sting's The Last Ship, particularly here in my home city. Sadly that's not to be. I would like to thank the production in allowing FACT, the charity of which I'm a patron, to benefit from the planned gala charity event. To anyone who has purchased a ticket, please, go see the show and give this vessel the launch it so deserves. You'll hear some of the finest musical works ever composed for the stage."
Karl Sydow, producer of The Last Ship, said: "After protracted negotiations carried out in good faith we regret to announce the production's offer of employment to Jimmy Nail has been withdrawn. All at The Last Ship thank him for his generosity and enormous contribution during what has been an eight year journey."
Joe McGann is perhaps best known for his lead role as Charlie Burrows in the comedy series The Upper Hand. Theatre credits include Elf (Plymouth Theatre Royal/Bord Gais Energy Theatre, Dublin, Dominion Theatre, West End and Lowry, Salford); The Rise and Fall of Little Voice (UK tour); Calendar Girls (three UK tours), Oliver! (London Palladium), Fiddler On the Roof (UK tour, 2008), Nathan Detroit in Guys and Dolls (UK tour, 2006).
Charlie Hardwick played Val Pollard from 2004 to 2015 and again in 2017 in the ITV soap opera Emmerdale. Stage credits include Hyem (Theatre 503/Northern Stage) and Double Lives (Live Theatre).
Richard Fleeshman has been acting since the age of 12 when he played the role of Craig Harris in Coronation Street for four years.A talented singer-songwriter, his stage roles include Sam Wheat in Ghost the Musical, a part he originated and played in the West End and on Broadway, Sky Masterson in Guys and Dolls (UK tour) and Bobby Strong in Urinetown (original West End production).
Frances McNamee recently appeared alongside Kelsey Grammer in Big Fish (The Other Palace). Other stage credits include The Mother (Tricycle), Love's Labour's Lost, Love's Labour's Won (RSC), Punishment Without Revenge (Arcola/Theatre Royal Bath/Belgrade Coventry), Pride and Prejudice (Regent's Park), A Midsummer Night's Dream (Royal and Derngate), The Borrowers (Northern Stage), Epsom Downs (Salisbury Playhouse), The Phoenix of Madrid, The Surprise of Love (Theatre Royal Bath) and Les Misérables 20th anniversary gala performance (West End).
Lorne Campbell, Northern Stage's artistic director, said: "I am delighted to be welcoming Joe McGann, Charlie Hardwick, Richard Fleeshman, Frances McNamee and the rest of the company to Northern Stage for The Last Ship.Alongside some wonderful old friends of the company, we welcome some remarkable new performers from across the UK. We are all hugely excited to move into rehearsal and to bring this incredible score and epic story to audiences across the UK and Ireland."

Claire Wardle, a research fellow at Harvard's Shorenstein Center, created a glossary so everyone has a shared vocabulary to discuss "fake news" and the spread of bad information online.
In an article that originally appeared in Harvard Business Review, we explain what scholars know to date about the reach and impact of bad online information and what works to prevent and stop it.
A new study suggests political candidates may win slightly more support from bilingual Latinos if they speak Spanish in their ads. But they stand to lose significant support from voters who only speak English.


The Wine Advocate - This wine will likely be a major superstar with about 10-15 years of cellaring. It was one of the more closed and difficult wines to penetrate and one of probably only a dozen or so 2010s that I only had one chance to taste from bottle, but it is loaded with fabulous raw materials. The 2010 is a profound effort, but it needs to be forgotten for at least a decade. This opaque purple wine offers up notes of caramelized black currant and black cherry candies intermixed with some very high class, subtle vanillin and toast. Hints of licorice, mocha and perhaps even a touch of chocolate are also present in this full-bodied, super-duper, concentrated, classic wine, which has everything in perfect proportions. But in the finish, its whoppingly big tannins kick in and basically announce that drinking this wine now would be infanticide. Look for this wine to last for at least 50+ years.
Jancis - Very dark and glowing crimson. Savoury and dense and lively. Lip smacking. Lots of sweetness and nerve. Well done! A very firm thread and great integrity. Lovely texture. Much more sweetness than I would expect for a 2010. Racy and charming but with real density.
Parker - This wine will likely be a major superstar with about 10-15 years of cellaring.

But in the finish, its whoppingly big tannins kick in and basically announce that drinking this wine now would be infanticide. Look for this wine to last for at least 50+ years. Proprietor Denis Durantou has been on a hot streak, and is one of those perfectionist proprietors who seems tortured by their compulsion to do everything so well. Believe me, as a wine drinker, you want people like Durantou making the wines!
Decanter - Undoubted power and concentration. Rich, dense and profound but reserved. Layered fruit on the palate. Bigger structure than '09 although a touch awkward at this youthful stage.

Ethan: What's your name?
Alex: Alex Hakes
E: What does LGBTQ mean to you?
A: LGBT means an expression of people. Individuals that have found their own identity. Who live their lives in a certain way, that might not be morally acceptable for others. But these individuals are comfortable with it; they were born like that, there's no way "to fix it." LGBTQ pretty much means individuals living their life, being open, and free susceptible to judgement but they don't really care.
E: Is it hard to find a date?
A: No, kind of, yes. Here in Wayne county the gay community is not really prevalent, especially here at IU East. Being a college student, and not venturing out much is kind of hard to find someone, it's kind of hard.
E: Does your family know, if so what do they think?
A: They know; my mom is very accepting of it. Coming from a Spanish, or Latino household. Being gay and being Latino weren't too common. Growing up in Puerto Rico a majority of the population is Catholic, and in Catholicism you can't be gay and live your life. When I told my mom, I thought she was gonna be pissed, she was going to be mad at me, disappointed. But no, she was completely okay with it. She was just reassuring me that she loved me no matter what I did.
E: Are you religious and how does religion relate to homosexuality to you?
A: Yes, I am very religious, I believe that god is the center of my universe, and everything I do is for him. Primarily with religion and homosexuality, a lot of people see a barrier I guess between the two subjects. But personally, I don't see anything standing in my way of loving the creator who created me and the entire universe and believing in him.
E: What do people first think of you?
A: People first think of me that, they don't see me as a gay person. They see me as, they don't think that I'm gay. They think that I'm, I don't know. They just don't think that I'm gay and once I finally tell them they're like sister-shook. They're like, "woah, what the fuck". Once I tell people they're perfectly okay with it.
E: Is there any advice you'd give for starting LGBTQ teams or really just people…
A: Right, Right, Right. Yeah, just love yourself. I grew up, it was hard for me to find myself and actually love myself and once I did I became a totally different person. I became a lot happier, I became a lot more open with myself and other people, I became someone who everyone could be around, and I would make them laugh just because I'm so much happier because I found my true identity and my true self. For those kids that's just growing up just know that there's someone out there that does love you and does accept you and you should do whatever it takes to find them.
E: Do you consider yourself a part of the gay community?
E: Why is that?
A: I don't have a strong tie with the gay community. In general I would say, not just talking primarily about Wayne County, Richmond, but within Indiana itself. I don't really, a lot of gay people attend like the pride parades. I don't really find that interesting to me. I don't really find that enthralling. I tend to just keep me and my sexuality to myself and within other like if I were to have a partner I would with them obviously. I just keep it under wraps, you know?
E: Who would you consider to be your homosexual role model?
A: My gay role model, okay. Gay role model… Ru Paul, just because he's so open and loves himself and does everything for the community that's most possible. [Pauses] Dylan Geick. He is a wrestler from Columbia, very social media present. He is a social media influencer. He is an athlete and being gay. He was completely okay with it. His was very loving for it and I really relate to him because I was an athlete. I played baseball for four years and everyone loved me for it. Once I became gay they really accepted me and I just really relate with him.
E: Anything else you feel you want to add to this?
E: Alright, thank you.
A: Nada mucho.

Calibration-free sensing and vector imaging of microwave and THz fields sustains a large range of applications, for which atomic vapor cells have shown to be a powerful tool. While other techniques using e.g. miniaturised antennas require calibration, the radically different "atomic physics" approach offered by vapor cells relates the microwave or THz field strength to an atomic frequency measurement. Because atomic properties are given by nature and precisely known, the technique is intrinsically calibrated. Results using Rydberg transitions for electric and ground-state hyperfine transitions for magnetic field measurements, hold an enormous potential for the development of high-resolution and low cross-talk devices for imaging of microwave fields in industry and science but also in emerging applications of microwaves in medical imaging.
Objective: in macQsimal, partners will work closely together to design and develop microwave and THz sensors and field imaging device demonstrators based on Rydberg transitions for E-field and hyperfine transitions for B-field detection, combining frequency tunability with high spatial resolution and sensitivity, kHz bandwidths and low cross-talk. Furthermore, partner will design and develop a miniaturised quantum-enhanced single-channel microwave field detector demonstrator platform for the exploration of quantum enhancement strategies.

At the other end of the spectrum, there is a possibility of a herpetic flare up taking a sinister turn and leading to herpetic encephalitis. It is estimated to affect at least 1 in 500,000 individuals per year. The mechanism of this is not fully understood, but it is believed that the infection occurs through direct transmission of the virus via nerves from other parts of the body to the brain. In such cases, a person may complain of fever, headache, and lethargy, followed by confusion or delirium. In some cases, some people even develop seizures. This requires immediate medical attention and treatment.
For mild infections, self-care may be adequate for treatment. Other treatments termed "home remedies" are not considered cures but can ease or hasten recovery. These remedies include aloe vera gel, cornstarch paste, and tea or mint leaves. A cool compress may reduce pain. There is no cure for the infection. People with severe infection symptoms, especially children, should be evaluated by a medical caregiver.
A herpes infection is caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). It has 2 main types, including HSV-1 and HSV-2. While HSV-1 can cause oral herpes, HSV-2 can be responsible for genital herpes. Oral herpes is also known as cold sores or fever blisters. It mainly occurs on the lips, around the mouth. Genital herpes is usually referred to as herpes. It mostly affects the genitals and anal area. Genital herpes is considered to be a sexually transmitted disease. It's extremely contagious and can be spread through sexual intercourse.

Patients with genital herpes have reported that outbreaks or episodes typically diminish through the years. Early prodromal symptoms, or warning signals, that are followed by outbreaks. These prodromal symptoms often include mild tingling or shooting pains in the legs, hips and buttocks, and can last from 2 hours to 2 days. After the prodromal symptoms occur the blisters develop into painful red spots, which then evolve into yellowish, clear fluid-filled blisters after a day or two. These blisters burst or break and leave ulcers that usually heal in about 10 days. In women, blisters can develop inside the vagina and cause painful urination.

Until the 1980s serological tests for antibodies to HSV were rarely useful to diagnosis and not routinely used in clinical practice.[39] The older IgM serologic assay could not differentiate between antibodies generated in response to HSV-1 or HSV-2 infection. However, a glycoprotein G-specific (IgG) HSV test introduced in the 1980s is more than 98% specific at discriminating HSV-1 from HSV-2.[40]
Although herpes treatment is helpful, there is no cure. However, in most cases, outbreaks become fewer, less painful, and weaker over the course of a few years. If you have herpes, you can take certain medications to help manage the infection. Using herpes treatments is usually very effective in speeding up the healing of sores and preventing them from returning frequently.
Condoms offer moderate protection against HSV-2 in both men and women, with consistent condom users having a 30%-lower risk of HSV-2 acquisition compared with those who never use condoms.[49] A female condom can provide greater protection than the male condom, as it covers the labia.[50] The virus cannot pass through a synthetic condom, but a male condom's effectiveness is limited[51] because herpes ulcers may appear on areas not covered by it. Neither type of condom prevents contact with the scrotum, anus, buttocks, or upper thighs, areas that may come in contact with ulcers or genital secretions during sexual activity. Protection against herpes simplex depends on the site of the ulcer; therefore, if ulcers appear on areas not covered by condoms, abstaining from sexual activity until the ulcers are fully healed is one way to limit risk of transmission.[52] The risk is not eliminated, however, as viral shedding capable of transmitting infection may still occur while the infected partner is asymptomatic.[53] The use of condoms or dental dams also limits the transmission of herpes from the genitals of one partner to the mouth of the other (or vice versa) during oral sex. When one partner has a herpes simplex infection and the other does not, the use of antiviral medication, such as valaciclovir, in conjunction with a condom, further decreases the chances of transmission to the uninfected partner.[14] Topical microbicides that contain chemicals that directly inactivate the virus and block viral entry are being investigated.[14]
Herpes symptoms commonly show in or around the mouth. Sores may also occur at the back of the throat, causing the lymph nodes in the neck to swell. Mouth herpes is very common in children, as their parents or relatives can pass it on to them easily by a greeting or goodnight kiss. To get a better understanding of oral herpes, let us take a look at its causes.
In fact, "atypical symptoms" are the reason that so many people don't know they have herpes. Their reality is nothing like the scary images that pop up when you Google image search the term. Atypical symptoms include things like nerve pain, achy muscles, itching, and tingling. Some women I talked to reported being misdiagnosed with frequent yeast infections or bacterial infections before receiving their herpes diagnosis. "With your first episode, you can have fever, fatigue, and flu-like symptoms," says Cullins.
Herpetic whitlow and herpes gladiatorum	Herpes whitlow is a painful infection that typically affects the fingers or thumbs. On occasion, infection occurs on the toes or on the nail cuticle. Individuals who participate in contact sports such as wrestling, rugby, and football (soccer), sometimes acquire a condition caused by HSV-1 known as herpes gladiatorum, scrumpox, wrestler's herpes, or mat herpes, which presents as skin ulceration on the face, ears, and neck. Symptoms include fever, headache, sore throat, and swollen glands. It occasionally affects the eyes or eyelids.
Herpes virus type 3 is also known as varicella-zoster virus which causes chicken pox. This virus can also lead to a recurrent infection called herpes zoster or shingles. It occurs when the virus becomes reactivated after causing chicken pox and infects the skin. So if you have had chicken pox as a child, you may get shingles afterwards. Shingles and chicken pox cause blisters anywhere on the body. They are contagious and can be spread by direct contact with fluid from the blisters.
Signs and symptoms of dehydration usually warrant going to a hospital's emergency department. Infants, especially under 6 weeks of age or if the infant appears to slow urine output or decrease fluid intake, should be evaluated by their pediatrician or in an emergency center if oral sores appear. Individuals with immune suppression (for example, patients undergoing chemotherapy, HIV patients, or cancer patients) should contact their doctors if they suspect a HSV-1 infection.

Recurrent outbreaks of genital herpes may happen, with some patients having four to six outbreaks in the span of a year. Compared to the first infection, subsequent recurrences are less painful and occur in shorter periods than the first infection. There are some patients, however, who don't have another outbreak for many years or even once more during their lifetime.11
Your healthcare provider may diagnose genital herpes by simply looking at your symptoms. Providers can also take a sample from the sore(s) and test it. In certain situations, a blood test may be used to look for herpes antibodies. Have an honest and open talk with your health care provider and ask whether you should be tested for herpes or other STDs.
You are not alone .... Yes take valtrex ....I take mine every day I found out in July and I didn't have outbreak like others on here have. I had my first experience just this week of going to bathroom and when urine hit the sore I almost passed out. It got better but now I an having awful lower back pain. I am taking it one day at a time. I am still learning all I can and a lot has been from this site. You have all on this site to support you. You really need someone besides this to talk to I will be on here so you have me to talk to I am old enough to be your Grandmother yep Grannys got it too .
So, if you have unprotected sex with your partner, you could be infected, too. Any form of sexual contact (oral, vaginal and anal sex) can put you at risks" the doctor said. Even when you use condoms or dental dams during sex, you can possibly contract HSV. In fact, condoms cannot provide 100 percent protection against genital herpes. Directly touching your partner's genitals can also make you become infected. This happens when your partner develops visible herpes sores on their genitals.
Pain, sore lips, burning sensation, tingling, or itching occurs at the infection site before the sores appear. These are the early symptoms (prodrome). Sometimes these symptoms happen prior to the appearance of sores, bumps, pimple-like lesions, or blisters (herpes or herpetic stomatitis). Thereafter, clusters or groups of painful blisters (also termed fever blisters) or vesicles erupt or ooze with a clear to yellowish fluid that may develop into a yellowish crust. These blisters break down rapidly and appear as tiny, shallow gray ulcers on a red base. Fever blisters are smaller than canker sores. A few days later, they become crusted or scabbed and appear drier and more yellow.
The frequency and severity of recurrent outbreaks vary greatly between people. Some individuals' outbreaks can be quite debilitating, with large, painful lesions persisting for several weeks, while others experience only minor itching or burning for a few days. Some evidence indicates genetics play a role in the frequency of cold sore outbreaks. An area of human chromosome 21 that includes six genes has been linked to frequent oral herpes outbreaks. An immunity to the virus is built over time. Most infected individuals experience fewer outbreaks and outbreak symptoms often become less severe. After several years, some people become perpetually asymptomatic and no longer experience outbreaks, though they may still be contagious to others. Immunocompromised individuals may experience longer, more frequent, and more severe episodes. Antiviral medication has been proven to shorten the frequency and duration of outbreaks.[79] Outbreaks may occur at the original site of the infection or in proximity to nerve endings that reach out from the infected ganglia. In the case of a genital infection, sores can appear at the original site of infection or near the base of the spine, the buttocks, or the back of the thighs. HSV-2-infected individuals are at higher risk for acquiring HIV when practicing unprotected sex with HIV-positive persons, in particular during an outbreak with active lesions.[80]

Q: what does !~myVar do? I'm trying to read this code:
  var cloneKeys = Object.keys(base).filter(function ( k ) {
    return !~noCloneKeys.indexOf(k);
  });

What does the !~ do here? I've never seen it before, and it's difficult to search. From the expressions and operators reference it looks like a combination of a logical operator and a bitwise operator, but that doesn't really make any sense to me.

A: It is a (very unreadable) short form of noCloneKeys.indexOf(k) == -1.
~value = binary inverse, ~(-1) => 0
!value = boolean inverse, !(0) => true

To keep your fellow developers mentally sane, please write == -1 or < 0...

Detailed:
-1 == binary 11111111111111111111111111111111 (assuming 32 bit integer)
~(-1)   ==   00000000000000000000000000000000
!(~(-1)) == !(0) == true

A: This is the combination of two operators not ! and tilde ~.
Tilde (bitwise Not) - ~:
This operator performs -(input + 1) (it actually is flipping bits, but I think that this is a nice beginner way to think about it). So in the case of indexOf(), which returns -1 if the input is not found, tilde will convert -1 to 0. For all cases where the input is found, tilde will convert a 0 or greater value to -1, -2, -3, -4, etc.
Not - !:
This is a boolean operator that inverts the input. Or in your case will invert any 0 to true, and any non zero to false.
So if we combine them, we are saying give me 0 for any instance where indexOf cannot find the input, and invert it to true. For all other valid inputs return false.

How Are Asian Americans Reacting to the News From Ferguson?
By P.C. EditorOctober 24, 2014No Comments
One of the few times Ferguson was mentioned (in passing) was in this panel, "Do Asian American Journalists Have a Stake in Ferguson Story?" Pictured (from left) are Hansi Lo Wang (NPR), Shefali S. Kulkarni (PRI), Ernabel Demillo (CUNY-TV), Emil Guillermo (AALDEF) and moderator Phil Yu (Angry Asian Man). Photo by Gil Asakawa
By Gil Asakawa
I just got back from a week in Washington, D.C., attending the Asian American Journalists Assn.'s annual convention. I sat in on a lot of interesting (and some not-so-interesting) sessions about social media and journalism, about why it's important to cover the Asian American Pacific Islander community, and lots of other current topics in the news.
But one topic was barely mentioned as part of the panel discussions: The death of 18-year-old Michael Brown, an unarmed African American man who was shot by a local police officer in the small town of Ferguson, Mo., a suburb of St. Louis.
He was killed on Aug. 9, and for the next week — during the AAJA convention — the tension in Ferguson between protesters and law enforcement has been front and center in the news.
The scenes during the first nights, when local police showed off their military hardware and went after protesters with tear gas, evoked nothing less than the civil rights era of the early 1960s, the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago or anti-war protests on college campuses across the country and the deadly volley of gunfire that killed four students at Kent State University in 1970.
That night led to a brief peace, when the state's governor assigned state patrol to take over for the overmilitarized local police force. The state troopers are led by an African American Ferguson native who chose a community-based, nonconfrontational approach to calming the neighborhood.
But tensions and violence resumed after a bungled announcement of the name of the police officer who shot Brown, and the next night, the governor announced a curfew. The National Guard was called in.
It's been a huge ongoing breaking news story, and it's not over yet.
It's easy to assume that the original shooting, the heavy-handed military reaction and curfew are racially-based. The suburb of Ferguson is mostly black, but the local police department of 53 officers only includes three black officers. That's why images from the civil rights struggles —marchers being attacked with water cannons and snarling police dogs — come to mind with little prompting.
These parallels should have all of us, including AAPIs, thinking about the state of race relations in America, both then and now.
But at the AAJA convention, conversations about Ferguson were private conversations among attendees, not on panels. I heard Ferguson mentioned twice, once in a panel about covering the Asian American community and then by Jose Antonio Vargas, the Pulitzer Prize-winning Filipino journalist who's an undocumented immigrant.
Richard Prince, an African American columnist for the Maynard Institute, an organization for training journalists of color, attended the AAJA convention and wrote a column titled "Do Asian American Journalists Have a Stake in Ferguson Story?" that calls out the lack of reaction to Ferguson.
I don't have an easy answer why Ferguson wasn't the official buzz at our convention. The programming was decided months ago, and the organizers weren't prepared to fold in an all-new topic in an ad hoc fashion; "people here are focusing on jobs and career, and you tend to be in a bubble" at conventions (according to AAJA's president, Paul Cheung).
But when I think about it, there haven't been many instances of Asian Americans protesting and marching as a group. Individuals have been involved in political activism — some high-profile Japanese Americans were involved in the civil rights movement, for instance, and marched alongside black leaders (and even with the Black Panthers). There were protests during the era that established Asian American studies in universities. And there were protests after the Vincent Chin murder in 1982, arguably a pivotal moment when an "Asian American" identity came together. But there weren't mass protests when Japanese Americans were rounded up and sent to concentration camps during World War II.
Maybe our cultural values keep us from such public displays of anger and frustration, until we're pushed too far.
I wish the speeches at the gala dinner mentioned Ferguson more than just by Vargas. It would have been cool to change a panel on the fly and turn it into a discussion of Ferguson. I hope we as a group didn't keep quiet because we think this is "not our problem." I know we don't.
It would be a real shame if as a community, Asian American accept this injustice meekly, like our own community accepted incarceration.
Because that was terribly wrong, the same way anti-black violence was wrong, the same way crackdowns on Vietnam war protesters was wrong, the way Vincent Chin's murder was wrong and the way Michael Brown died was wrong. And we should call out what's wrong in the world.

Below code create a file. but that file doesn't have 'execute' permission.
so I'm not able to execute by doing ./ex.sh.
new File('ex.sh').writeAsStringSync(script_str);

Perhaps, I need to set FileStat to file. but i'm not able to find any APIs.

A: Haven't tried it but what if you try:
new File('ex.sh').writeAsString(script_str).then((final File file) {
    return file.stat().then((final FileStat stat) => stat.mode = 777);
});

A: It seems this function is not yet implemented.

More than 90 bike riders hit the highway for Tour de Chaplain – a gruelling 100km journey to raise awareness and funds for school chaplaincy in Central Queensland.
From the town of Many Peaks to Yurwun, the riders battled cold, wind, and exhaustion to finish the journey, raising more than $23,000 for 12 chaplains who work at 19 schools in the Gladstone region.
Rider and chaplaincy trainer, Bruce Dobbin, said the Tour de Chaplain was an important support for the school chaplains in the region who play a vital role in supporting students going through struggle.
"I was already keen to get involved in the event this year, but a recent story one Central Queensland chaplain told me gave me that extra motivation to crack out the lycra again and take part this year," Bruce explained.
Gladstone Central and Tannum Sands state schools chaplain Geoff Parnell (pictured in the red jersey) got a distressing call at the end of the Easter holidays from one of his school principals.
"The principal relayed the sad news that a student lost his Dad to suicide in the last few days. He pleaded for me to assist him by supporting him on the first day back to school," Chappy Geoff said.
Bruce said the Tour de Chaplain was an amazing event to be a part of, particularly knowing the vital role that chaplains are playing in the community.
"It was great to be part of a really well organised chaplaincy event which enjoyed strong support from the various communities in which the chaplains work," he said.
"The morning began with a breakfast cooked by the local Lions club in a park on the banks of Deception Creek Dam and it was all downhill from there – at least for the first 20Km.
"It was great to ride through farming country alongside other people committed to the same cause. There were many volunteers providing refreshments and cheerful encouragement along the way.
School chaplains like Chappy Geoff are passionate about helping our young people find hope it times of struggle and sadness. You can support this great work by visiting suqld.org.au/donate.

Sue Halpern '77 is the author of two books of fiction and three of nonfiction, most recently Can't Remember What I Forgot: The Good News From the Front Line of Memory Research.
The lessons of This Lovely Life -- both the one we all have been given as well as Vicki Forman's indelible memoir -- often are not the lessons we expect. You get pregnant, for instance, as Forman did, and begin to envision a future for the baby you will have. You make certain signal assumptions, even though this person, when it is born, will be a stranger. You paint the walls, collect toys, hew to the advice of books with titles like What to Expect When You're Expecting. Ontology may not recapitulate phylogeny, but for most of us, until we are told otherwise, there's a largely unspoken belief that our child's development will reprise our own.
So it was for Forman and her husband, Cliff Kamida, who were living an ordinary, pleasant life in Southern California with their three-year-old daughter when Forman learned she was carrying twins. Conception the second time around had been difficult, and had been preceded by a number of miscarriages, but until Forman went into labor prematurely and delivered the babies at 23 weeks, it had been a largely uneventful, predictable, pregnancy.
Twenty-three weeks is more than four months shy of the average gestational age. (Full-term is 40 weeks.) It's the cliff-edge of viability; abortions may still be legal. At 23 weeks the eyes are fused shut and the lungs are not fully formed. Unassisted breathing is rare. Until recently, a baby born at 23 weeks had no chance of survival, but advances in medical technology mean that that is no longer always the case. Even so, according to a study of preemies at Brigham and Women's Hospital published in 2001, a year after Vicki Forman went into premature labor, "no neonates [born at 23 weeks] survived free of substantial morbidity." Morbidity is a neutered term. Substitute instead: brain bleeds (and subsequent mental retardation), chronic lung disease and respiratory distress syndrome, impaired vision and blindness, epilepsy, cerebral palsy.
Forman, the daughter of a psychiatrist whose specialty was treating children with disabilities, knew this better than most. When it became clear that she was in labor, she instructed the doctors to let nature take its course, warning them off any interventions, telling them that there were to be no heroic measures to keep these babies alive. What she didn't know was while some hospitals have guidelines that preclude intensive care for babies born before 25 weeks, her hospital had no rules governing how care was to be allocated. That decision, it seemed, was left to whoever happened to be on call. "Let them go," she instructed the neonatologist, only to be told, "What you're asking, I cannot do." And so, against her wishes, as soon as the babies were delivered -- a girl named Ellie who weighed 1 pound, 7 ounces, and a 1 pound, 3 ounce boy called Evan -- they were hooked up to monitors, IV drips, and oxygen. The Do Not Resuscitate order Forman and her husband requested might as well have been written in invisible ink.
Ellie survived four days. Evan held on against all odds. He was blind despite numerous operations to restore his sight, had a feeding tube sewn into his stomach, developed cluster seizures that caused his body to stiffen and flail many times a day, did not walk till he was five, could not speak. Taking care of him became Forman's full-time occupation. The endless hospitalizations, the trips to this specialist and that surgeon, the hour-by-hour schedule of medications, the syringes, the feeding pump that would sometimes dislodge in the middle of the night and fill Evan's crib with formula, the oxygen apparatus that had to be taped to his face. The heroic measures offered up by the physicians to keep Evan alive were nothing compared with those of Forman and her husband as they labored, for real, to give him a life.
In some ways, Evan got better. His seizures eventually disappeared. He no longer needed a feeding tube. At three he learned to crawl. He took steps at five, and by six he was walking. When he died, six days before his eighth birthday, it was sudden, without warning, and not from his congenital heart defect, but from a gastrointestinal blockage caused by scar tissue that had built up during all those years in which he'd been fed through a tube. He had been alive, and then he was gone, and nothing Vicki Forman learned about love and patience and expectations and the inadequacy of the word "disability" went with him. This Lovely Life is her story, really, not his. It's her serrated journey from grief to accommodation to forgiveness to acceptance. So when she asks herself the question that lurks in the margins here -- knowing the doctors' eagerness "to prove all that medical science could do to save one-pound babies" while "on the other side of that accomplishment [doing so little] to help," but, even so, having known and deeply loved her son, would she still have insisted that the doctors let her babies die? -- she cannot say. She just doesn't know. In her ambivalence is her eloquence.


Chocolate Streusel Loaf is a coffee cake I converted into a loaf pan recipe. It makes two loaves of this yummy bread. A great way to eat chocolate for breakfast!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In large bowl, cream the butter and sugars together. Add eggs, sour cream, baking powder, salt, soda and vanilla. Gradually add flour and mix until the flour is incorporated into the wet ingredients. Add milk to thin batter.
Mix all topping ingredients. Grease two medium size loaf pans. Spread 1/4 of the batter into each pan. Layer the topping on top of the batter, reserving some for the top of the loaf. Spread the rest of the batter into each pan. Finish with remaining topping. Bake for 35 minutes, or until knife comes out clean.
I made this last night, since no one invited us over for dinner. Anyways the middle sunk, is that because I didn't cook it long enough? The edges were nice and brown. I think it is time for me to get a $4000 oven!

These loans no longer qualify for Biden's student loan forgiveness program
by: Alex Gangitano, The Hill via Nexstar Media Wire
Updated: Oct 3, 2022 / 05:54 AM CDT
(The Hill) – President Biden's student loan forgiveness plan was abruptly updated on Thursday to exclude borrowers with privately held federal student loans, according to Education Department guidance.
As of Thursday, borrowers with federal student loans not held by the Education Department are no longer eligible to obtain one-time debt relief by consolidating those loans into Direct Loans, the guidance said.
The department said only borrowers in the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) program whose loans are held by the federal government are eligible. The FFEL program, which stopped issuing loans in 2010, was a student loan system that had private banks manage the loans but were guaranteed by the federal government.
Borrowers with privately-held FFEL Program loans and Perkins Loans who had applied to consolidate into the Direct Loan program before Thursday — when the administration abruptly updated its guidance — are still eligible for one-time debt relief through the Direct Loan program.
It's flu vaccine time and seniors need revved-up shots
The Education Department also said it is "assessing whether there are alternative pathways to provide relief to borrowers with federal student loans not held by ED, including FFEL Program loans and Perkins Loans, and is discussing this with private lenders."
Over 4 million student loan borrowers have privately-held FFEL loans, according to NPR.
Biden's student loan forgiveness plan is set to forgive $10,000 in federal student loan debt for borrowers earning under $125,000 and $20,000 for borrowers who received Pell Grants.
Earlier this week, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reported that the plan will cost about $400 billion. It also projected that 90 percent of income-eligible borrowers will apply for debt cancellation.
The White House pushed back on the report, saying it's unlikely that 90 percent of eligible borrowers will take advantage of the program.
Biden's plan also faced the first of its legal challenges this week.
Six Republican-led states filed a lawsuit on Thursday against the administration in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, arguing the proposal is unlawful because there is no statute from Congress authorizing the cancellation of student loan debt.
Graduates from these colleges, universities have the most debt: report
Earlier this week, public interest firm Pacific Legal Foundation (PLF) filed a lawsuit against the administration, challenging it through a plaintiff who is currently paying off loans and would be subject to an expensive tax in the event of debt relief because he lives in Indiana, one of several states that considers debt cancellation taxable income.
The White House has cited the Heroes Act to justify the forgiveness program when pressed on how it will uphold in court against legal challenges.
The act allows the Education Department to waive or modify statutes or provisions related to student financial assistance programs during war or national emergencies, with the COVID-19 pandemic being a justification for debt cancellation.

In creating this incense we sought the ultimate in fragrance made with abundant use of agarwood from Vietnam, including the most valuable form of it, kyara.
Nippon Kodo's superior incense represents a heritage passed down to this day from the late-16th century Tensho period incense merchant, Koju, that supplied the imperial court with incense.
A collector's collection with a limited annual production run, and using the rarest of materials.
Enchanting, noble, profound, and subtle - a timeless aroma with endless breadth and evocative depth.
Savor the lasting, bewitching delight of fragrant kyara wood.
Agarwood is harvested only in a limited area of South-East Asia centered on Vietnam.
The wood of this tree is white, light and odorless, However, with sufficient time, the forces of nature and the unique functions of the wood itself bring forth the fragrant agarwood aroma treasured since olden times.
Of that agarwood, kyarais considered the most refined form of it.
Its pure, elegant aroma, which differs from tree to tree, has charmed countless people through the ages.
1. Carefully selected raw materialsAgarwood from Vietnam - and kyara - are hard to come by these days. We carefully scrutinize and rigorously select wood from the plentiful stock built up over the years in our warehouses via unique supply routes that we have forged, and use it unsparingly in our products.
2. Production environmentWe do our utmost to prevent heat from harming the sublime aromas, and therefore do our production work only in winter - the one season considered suitable for it.
3. By the hands of skilled craftspeopleTop-level artisans who cut no corners take their time in painstakingly handcrafting the matured incense.
Sense and savor the nuances of aroma born of this delicate process of creation.

Sometimes I will go back to some photos I have taken and put them in the painting. This painting wasn't in front of me, it was inside of me.
Love this beautiful painting, Linda. It has perfect balance and harmony.
I also liked what you said about the painting "was inside of you." Happens to me all the time. They really do take on a life of their own.

Republicans recapture Virginia governorate with Glenn Young's victory over Joe Biden
Benjamin Aguilar 1 year ago 3 min read
Republican candidate Glenn Young of Virginia
The U.S. Republican Party recaptured the governor of Virginia on Tuesday, backing U.S. President Joe Biden., That state defeated his predecessor Donald Trump nearly a year ago. By ten per cent, according to the predictions of the mainstream media.
Chains CNN, ABC and NBC They give the winner to the Republican Party Glenn Young, An entrepreneur with no political experience who has made parental influence in schools the central theme of his campaign and who faced Democrat Terry McAliffe, who already ruled the state between 2014 and 2018.
With more than 95% of the vote counted, he led Glenn Young's Democrat Terry McAuliffe by 2.7 points.
These elections represent the first test on the ballot since Biden came to the White House a year ago. Moreover, they are the first measure of the attitude of Americans facing the 2022 legislative elections, in which Democrats fear they will lose their majority in Congress.
Although the turnout in recent years has been favorable for Democrats, this time Virginia has chosen a Republican candidate at a time when support for US President Joe Biden is not at an all-time high. Young was able to convince his constituents by focusing his campaign on his education plans.
In a statewide poll, 56 percent of citizens suggested that Biden had not accepted his administration since coming to the White House in January this year, while 43 percent welcomed the first months of this year. Democratic Presidential Chain CBS News.
With 95% counted, Young received 51% of the vote with 1,655,000 votes., McAuliffe received 48.3% (1,570,000 votes). The New York Times.

Immediately, the former president Donald Trump celebrated the victory of the "true patriot" Young, "America First"., Whatever his campaign slogan for the presidential election he won in 2016.

Trump automatically boasted that he was "going to vote strongly" for his constituency and made Young the governor of Virginia for the next four years.
Young, however, tried to keep some distance from Trump to mobilize his supporters, but did not intimidate the traditional Republican electorate. Wealthy suburbs are concentrated in the suburbs.
McAuliffe, a centrist in the Democratic Party for decades, has yet to concede defeat.
Even before the media released their predictions, even when 90% of the votes had been counted, McAuliffe interrupted his supporters and asked that the votes be continued as "every Virgin deserves to have their voice heard."
The defeat of the Democrats did not result in the loss of the governor's office, but the defeat of Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears of the Republican Party and the victory of the Attorney General in the victory of Jason Myers.
However, the Democrats seem to have avoided the whole catastrophe, thanks to the House under the legislature, where the unfinished re-count seems to have thrown the balance at 50 seats, with no mechanism for a tiebreaker.
A few hours ago, at a press conference in Glasgow, Scotland, Biden predicted a democratic victory in Virginia and New Jersey, where no winner is yet known, but things are worse for Democrats than polls had expected.
