Fall has arrived with cooler temperatures and lower humidity – the perfect days to spend time outdoors. But here in South Florida, allergies persist through the fall. Living in South Florida, long known for hay fever (the common name for pollen allergies), it is important to understand pollen and other allergy causes, like mold and mold spores, as well as symptoms and treatments to relieve the effects.
As fall and winter blossoms bloom and the dreaded ragweed, fall's allergy villain, releases pollen into the late fall. Nearly 75 percent of those with spring allergies will also find themselves plagued with fall allergies as well. Pollen, the microscopic portions of plant seeds, allows plants to fertilize themselves so that even in places where ragweed is not evident, the pollen can travel hundreds of miles via the wind. Pollen is easily inhalable and the culprit behind many seasonal allergies.
Mold is another fall trigger, striking in damp areas of your home, office, or garden. Mold, tiny fungi which produces mold spores that travel through the air need food, air, cool temperatures, and water to grow. Fallen leaves and blooms in moist areas are the perfect place for mold to thrive. While everyone breathes mild spores from the air, only some people have allergic reactions to them.
If you are sensitive to pollen and mold spores, your body's immune system reacts treating them as an allergen. The result is sneezing, wheezing, coughing, itchy watery eyes, scratchy sore throat, itchy nose, runny nose, nasal congestion, difficulty sleeping and fatigue. These symptoms are often confused with a common cold, but with seasonal allergies, prevention and treatment is the key. Seeing your doctor can help discover the cause of your symptoms. After discussing your medical history and symptoms, the doctor may recommend a skin or blood test to determine your specific allergens.
Be aware of the plants in your area producing the most pollen, staying indoors with pollen is at its peak (late morning and midday).
Always check the pollen count in your area with your local weather forecasts. If you do go outside, especially when doing lawn work, always wear a mask to keep from breathing in pollen and mold spores.
If you use heat in your home, always clean your vents and change filters before turning it on for the first time in the fall. Using a HEPA filter will also help remove pollen, mold, and other allergens from the air.
Using a dehumidifier keeping your humidity setting between 35 and 50 percent.
Your doctor can also prescribe medications to help alleviate your symptoms. Steroid nasal sprays can help reduce the inflammation of your nose that accompanies your allergies. Antihistamines can control sneezing, sniffing, and itching, while decongestants dry up the mucus in nose and nasal passages to relieve stuffiness. In more severe cases, immunotherapy using allergy shots, tablets, or drops can help you to feel better. Always check with your doctor when using over-the-counter medications which may not be compatible with your conditions or current prescriptions medications.
At Urgent Medical Center, our physicians are here to help you when your allergy strikes. You can schedule an appointment online or walk in and be seen during our normal hours. In addition, Urgent Medical Center provides referrals to allergy specialists when needed within our network of trusted providers. Call on us today, and let us help you with allergy relief.


Construction works are underway on the Wyreema Water and Sewerage Project (QLD) that will deliver key water and sewerage infrastructure to the area.
The project includes the construction of a sewerage pump station and sewer pressure pipeline that will replace the existing Wyreema and Cambooya wastewater treatment facility.
Upon completion, all wastewater that is currently received at the existing facility will be transferred via the Westbrook sewer network to Council's Wetalla Water Reclamation Facility for treatment.
The project also includes the construction of a water supply pipeline from Westbrook that will connect to the existing Wyreema water supply reservoir to support Wyreema's growing water demand.
The project is expected to be completed late 2015.

On 10 December 2018, the House of Lords adjourned the debate it was holding on the withdrawal agreement and political declaration agreed by the Government and the EU during the Brexit negotiations. This debate was being held to fulfil the requirements on the House of Lords under section 13 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, which sets out certain steps that must be taken before the UK would be able to ratify the withdrawal agreement. The Lords adjourned its debate when the Government decided not to go ahead with a planned vote on the withdrawal agreement and political declaration in the House of Commons—what has become known as the 'meaningful vote'. This briefing summarises recent developments which may influence when the Lords has the opportunity to debate this matter again. It does not cover what might happen were the Commons to decide not to approve the withdrawal agreement and political declaration in a rescheduled 'meaningful vote'.
New Lords appointments: December 2020
This article analyses the new peers announced in December 2020 by the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, and the 79 peers he has appointed in total since taking office.
Judicial review: Time for change?
Judicial review involves a judge reviewing the lawfulness of a decision that has been made by a public body. Following the Government's announcement of an independent review that will consider if judicial review reform is needed, this article looks at what judicial review is, and recent debates about whether the process is working.
'Global Britain' and the British Armed Forces
The Government has used the phrase 'Global Britain' since the EU referendum in 2016 to summarise its post-Brexit foreign policy. It has said the Integrated Security, Defence and Foreign Policy Review, set to conclude early this year, will expand on its vision for the UK's place in the world. In November 2020, Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced the first outcome of this review would be an increase in defence spending over the current parliament.

Beaver Dams man jailed on drug charges after reportedly attempting to flee police
A Beaver Dams man faces multiple charges after police say he attempted to flee from a traffic stop over the weekend.
The incident took place Saturday on Pine Valley Road in the Chemung County Town of Catlin, when troopers pulled over a vehicle for a traffic violation, according to New York State Police.
The driver was unable to produce a license or registration and gave troopers a name and date of birth.
As the troopers were verifying the information, the man exited the vehicle and ran into a field with a backpack, state police said. The troopers gave chase and took the man into custody after a short foot pursuit.
Troopers were able to confirm the man's identity as Joseph McCarty, 29, of Beaver Dams.
Troopers located a large quantity of illegal drugs, including heroin, a scale and a large amount of cash inside the vehicle McCarty was driving, according to state police.
McCarty was charged with third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a felony, and seventh degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a misdemeanor.
He was also charged under the Family Court Act with failure to pay child support, along with several vehicle and traffic charges.
McCarty was arraigned and committed to the Chemung County Jail with no bail.

Gardner, Peters, Sullivan, Rosen, Cortez Masto Announce Bipartisan Legislation to Strengthen Transportation Industry Workforce
Washington, D.C – U.S. Senators Cory Gardner (R-CO), Gary Peters (MI), Dan Sullivan (R-AK), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), and Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV)announced they introduced bipartisan legislation to expand career opportunities throughout the transportation industry. The Promoting Service in Transportation Act would direct the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to deploy public awareness campaigns highlighting job opportunities in the transportation sector to help fill existing and future workforce shortages. A similar measure was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives by Representatives Rick Larsen (WA-02), Don Young (AK), and Angie Craig (MN-02).
"Colorado's growing population and economy demand our transportation systems keep pace," said Senator Gardner. "Pilots, bus drivers, truck drivers, technicians, and more are needed to support Colorado's transportation priorities, and this bipartisan legislation is aimed at helping connect workers in the Centennial State to transportation job opportunities."
"Michigan is a hub for transportation, trade and logistics. As our world becomes increasingly interconnected, supporting jobs in the transportation industry is even more vital," said Senator Peters. "This bipartisan bill will help recruit pilots, drivers, technicians and service professionals throughout the transportation industry and build a diverse workforce with the skills needed to succeed in today's economy."
"As a frontier state with major communities separated by hundreds of miles, rivers and mountain ranges, Alaska knows how important it is to have a robust and capable workforce to transport our goods and people," said Senator Sullivan. "Without a vigorous and skilled transportation labor force, all aspects of life and our economy come to a halt. I'm glad to join Congressman Young and Senators Peters, Rosen, Gardner and Cortez Masto in putting forward legislation to fill these critical gaps in service, and promote great career opportunities for pilots, air traffic controllers, mechanics, truck drivers, and countless other transportation professionals who keep our state and country humming."
"The transportation sector faces workforce and diversity challenges that we must address now," said Senator Rosen. "We need to work on innovative ways to ensure we will have a workforce prepared for a 21st century economy. This bipartisan bill will work to raise awareness of jobs available in the transportation industry, such as airline pilots, flight engineers, and flight attendants, while also working to increase diversity in these fields. I will continue to support legislation to help attract the next generation of transportation professionals."
"The transportation sector can provide many good-paying jobs for hardworking Nevadans, and I'm proud to cosponsor legislation that will help promote this important career field and ensure that we're attracting the next generation of diverse workers to the industry," said Senator Cortez Masto. "I'll continue fighting in the Senate to ensure that all Nevadans have access to job training and career opportunities."
The Promoting Service in Transportation Act would authorize the development of public awareness campaigns that highlight the importance of and address the need for professional truck drivers, mechanics, railroad workers, air traffic controllers, pilots, and other transportation professionals. The legislation would additionally emphasize the importance of diversity in filling vacancies.
The bill is supported by the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA), Air Line Pilots Association, International (ALPA), Aeronautical Repair Station Association (ARSA), Professional Aviation Safety Specialists (PASS), Transport Workers Union (TWU), Association of Flight Attendants (AFA-CWA), the Aviation Technician Education Council (ATEC), National Air Transportation Association (NATA), Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU), Truckload Carriers Association (TCA), Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA), Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA), American Trucking Association (ATA), National Air Traffic Controllers Association (NATCA), International Association of Machinists & Aerospace Workers (IAM), and the Helicopter Association International (HAI).
Cory Gardner is a member of the U.S. Senate serving Colorado. He sits on the Energy & Natural Resources Committee, the Foreign Relations Committee, the Commerce, Science, & Transportation Committee, and is the Chairman of the Subcommittee on East Asia, the Pacific, and International Cybersecurity Policy.

Porter Ranch Gas Leak
Coverage of the natural gas leak at SoCalGas Company's Aliso Canyon facility.
SoCalGas to Pay $8.5M Over Porter Ranch Gas Leak
Published Feb 8, 2017 at 12:35 PM
Southern California Gas Co. reached an $8.5 million settlement today to resolve a lawsuit filed against the utility by the South Coast Air Quality Management District over the four-month leak at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility in Porter Ranch.
The settlement of the lawsuit, which was filed in January 2016, includes funding for a AQMD-sponsored health study on the impacts of the leak.
"Consistent with the commitment we made last year, SoCalGas has agreed to fund AQMD's health study. We are pleased to have worked with AQMD to settle this and other matters," according to a statement from the utility.
According to AQMD, $1 million of the settlement will go toward the health study.
"We are pleased to immediately kick off the process for an independent health study," said Wayne Nastri, AQMD executive officer. "This study will build upon existing health information and help inform the community about potential health impacts from the gas leak."
Another $5.65 million of the settlement amount will cover emission fees related to the leak, $1.6 million will reimburse AQMD for air-monitoring costs and $250,000 will cover legal fees.
Of the $5.65 million for emission fees, $1 million will be used to fund a "renewable natural gas production project" to demonstrate the viability of renewable gas, potentially reducing the need for underground natural-gas storage, such as that done at Aliso Canyon, AQMD officials said.
Porter Ranch Gas Leak Affecting Pets: Vet
A four-month gas leak at the Porter Ranch facility from October 2015 to February 2016 spewed 109,000 metric tons of methane into the air and displaced thousands of residents.
Officials with the state Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources and the California Public Utilities Commission have recommended that gas injections resume at the facility, but at reduced amounts and lower pressure levels than those requested by SoCalGas.
State regulators held two public meetings last week on the proposal to allow the utility to resume injecting natural gas at Aliso, but one of the meetings was cut short due to shouting by hundreds of San Fernando Valley residents who want to stop the re-opening.
Outrage Builds in Porter Ranch Over Gas Leak
A judge in November approved a $4 million settlement that resolved criminal charges against SoCalGas, with the utility pleading no contest to a misdemeanor count of failing to immediately report the leak, which began Oct. 23, 2015 and was capped in mid-February 2016.
That settlement requires SoCalGas to install and maintain an infrared methane monitoring system at the Aliso Canyon site -- estimated to cost between $1.2 million and $1.5 million -- and to retain an outside company to test and certify that the monitoring system and real-time pressure monitors to be placed at each gas well are working properly. It also required the hiring of a half-dozen full-time employees to operate and maintain the new leak-detection systems.
The agreement also called for the company to revise and adopt new reporting policies for actual and threatened releases of hazardous materials to the appropriate agencies, and mandates training courses on proper notification procedures for all of the utility's employees who work at natural gas storage facilities within Los Angeles County.

Applecare - "No issue is found with the product"?
Discussion in 'Mac Basics and Help' started by Mr. Monsieur, Sep 18, 2009.
So...I received my new MBP about two weeks ago and I've been running it through its paces. Among other things, I've been keeping an eye on battery life and was finding that it was consistently holding a charge for only about three hours (even with the monitor dimmed and the keyboard backlighting turned off). Now...if it had been anywhere in the ballpark of the "up to seven hours" Apple advertises, I wouldn't have worried about it...but less than half?!
So I called Apple and they had me recalibrate the battery...which didn't seem to have any effect. I called them back and they just sent me a box to send the computer back to them.
So...here's the question...in the email they sent to me, it reads: "Please note that if you decline service because the repair is not covered by Apple or no issue is found with the product, a diagnostic fee of no more than $100 USD may be charged." Has anyone had any experience with Apple using this loophole? I'm wondering now if when they say "up to seven hours," they mean with the computer in sleep mode? My latest battery test suggests that it's now holding a charge up to four hours...still woefully short of the seven, but perhaps they'll be like, "you said it only holds a charge for three hours, but it's holding it for four now, which is sufficient for us..."?
That's why they say "up to" seven hours, not "at least" seven hours. Your mileage may vary. While 3 or 4 hours may not be acceptable to you, it's "up to" seven hours. If a battery falls too far short of Apple's expectations, they could replace it, but you're certainly operating in a "grey area" where they could tell you that your battery is not defective.
you should ask Apple how long your battery should be good for. Ask them if that 7 hours is in sleep mode....ask them what you should expect and under what conditions. Ask them if 3 or 4 hours meets their acceptable standards for new batteries under the way you're using it, and if they say "no" then you you shouldn't expect them to say they can't find a problem and want to charge you....and be sure to document who told you what just in case you have to hassle about it later!
That's one of the problems trying to deal with Apple over the phone, whether it be over a warranty item or not. Walk into an Apple store with the same problem and chances are they'll give you a new machine especially since that one is only two weeks old.
BTW, I believe even MacWorld tests on the new 7 hour battery found that it didn't yield 7 hours. Like the other post stated: "Your mileage may vary."
Thanks for your responses, folks!
So...we'll see how things go from here!


The Twelve-Year Streak Lives On….
The interrogation's intensity — calling into question my punctuality and credibility — nearly broke me. My breathing grew shallow. My face froze in a familiar "There's-no-credit-card-in-my-back-pocket-to-pay-for-all-these-bagged-groceries-and-Oh-God-look-at-that-huge-line-of-exasperated-shoppers-behind-me" expression.
Is it possible that I am mistaken? Have I overstated my case?
A ninety-percent bus stop success rate is admirable. Likely something Everett's Head of School would point out in front of a couple hundred super-impressed parents at an upcoming All-School Assembly. Eighty-five percent probably means inclusion in a congratulatory remark in the next school newsletter.
Why did I feel the need to throw down the gauntlet and lay claim to supremacy? To risk snatching defeat from the jaws of easy victory?
Is it because I can't bear the thought of losing yet another argument to my 11 year-old? Or because I resist any further chipping away at my eggshell-thin patina of parental invincibility? Or because, honestly and objectively, I fear I have achieved so little in my life that this feels like, well, a major achievement? All of these are true, at least in part, to be sure.
But mostly, my tight fists and their white knuckles clutch at the end of a rope; a fading connection between father and sons.
After all these years of harried, stressed, often argumentative sprints to the bus stop just around the corner, I realize now that our morning ritual will not last. I've begun the migration from numbly going through the motions of the daily schlep to recognizing the feeling of yet another schlep falling through my spread fingers. Looking down at my hand, holding far fewer schleps than those piled in the seemingly bottomless mound at my feet the day when my now 16 year-old scrambled up the kindergarten bus steps for the first time. So many years ago, suddenly.
There will come a time when 7:43am no longer jolts the adrenals, slowly receding back among all the other unremarkable minutes in a day. When no Beadling boy climbs those three black, rubberized steps that had seemed to shrink in size from one school year to the next. When no Beadling parent strains to glimpse through tinted windows a familiar, hat-wearing silhouette shuffling back through the rows in a southerly direction. When I look down to see that my hand is empty. When I am left only with my own, increasingly fleeting recollections, and a handful of iPhone photos hastily taken along the way.
But for now, the streak lives on.
Everett Baker Beadling is in for a big surprise. He won't know what hit him. Couldn't possibly have seen it coming. Simply not a sufficient number of neural connections in his developing brain as of yet to compete at this lofty level. My brain and his mother's brain combined boast 200 trillion synapses; Everett's a paltry 100 trillion. Pfft, this is gonna be like taking candy from a baby. That is a terrible analogy, actually, since my own instinct for self-preservation overrides anything so reckless and suicidal as taking Everett's bag of remnant Halloween candy.
But we are not above deploying blatant, ugly bribery with Everett from time-to-time in order to achieve what we believe to be ends sitting squarely in Everett's own self-interest. When I say "we," in this particular case I mean "I." Hilary must maintain plausible deniability on this one, just in case our sophisticated plot — I mean my sophisticated plot — falls flat, requiring a separate battle plan to be drawn up and executed by a separate commander.
Most parents set lofty life goals for their children, imagining a "sky-is-the-limit" future. Hilary and I simply want our 6th grader to steer clear of type 2 diabetes and stay properly inoculated. Is this too much to hope for?
Apparently so, as Everett has proclaimed a standing prohibition on shots of any kind for any purpose, whether the shots purport to be painful or painless. We don't even utter the word "shot" around the house, for fear of triggering a fainting spell or Grand Mal seizure on Everett's part. It's like the one person in the hypnotist's audience who is hooked, dropping to the ground like a rag doll upon the invocation of the secret word. Saying aloud "shot," or anything that rhymes with "shot," and you will hear Everett crumple to the carpet with a "flummpf" in another room. This poses a real problem this time of year, in particular, since Hilary keeps trying to add "Get Everett a flu shot" to my to-do list.
Then there is exercise. Well, any physical movement, really. Anything requiring more metabolic processes and involving a higher caloric burn rate than those associated with binge watching "The Flash," or "Stranger Things," or pretty much any things, whilst sitting dead still on the living room couch. Add in the seasonal, bulging, orange pillowcase of Milky Ways and Nerds and Gobstoppers surgically attached to Everett's wrist, and you can start to appreciate our concern for his spiked insulin levels. We wouldn't dare flush his Halloween treats, but we would love for him to move his arms and limbs on occasion in order to stave off Gangrene.
Alas, my timid suggestion the other night that Ev play in a winter soccer league was not well-received. Sitting at a restaurant's dinner table on Chestnut street, he reacted as though I told him he arrived on our doorstep from outer space and then farted on his pizza. Shock and disgust. He nearly bolted out of the restaurant and sprinted off into the night, maybe to our house, maybe to who knows where.
So no flu shot, no futsal.
But now everything has changed. Due to the sudden serendipity of some new mobile phone program at my wife's work, we have ourselves a bargaining chip: A near-obsolete-but-brand-new-to-you iPhone, just waiting for a new owner who is just about to turn 12 years old. Most parents would bestow such a big moment gift with pomp and circumstance. Proud smiles. High-minded speeches.
At least this is the plan. Wish me luck.
Just about a year ago. Seems like yesterday. Still working on all this stuff, it ain't easy.
I woke up crying, and for a moment or two, couldn't figure out why.
The last time I woke up choking back tears was the morning after my grandmother died in a small Upstate New York hospital bed surrounded by family. Years ago, now. How strange to experience profound sadness as the first emotion of the day. And these are not two isolated, unconnected incidents. Because my grandmother — my inspiration for starting this little blog — taught me how to make lemonade from lemons. Hence, "The Lemonade Chronicles." So, good people, it's time to make some lemonade. Here, squeeze this lemon, stir it up, and maybe even drink some along with me….
Attention Shoppers, Daylight Savings in the Bubbling and Boiling Beneath Department!
All this writing is getting in the way of my writing. I have been revising the living daylights (pun intended, sort of) out of my "Lemonade Chronicles" book manuscript for the past few weeks. That process is pretty much all-consuming, it turns out. And it does little to soothe the savage beast when it comes to actually churning out new content and releasing the pressure valve on what bubbles and boils beneath.
People like me experience great difficulty in keeping their ideas to themselves. I know — we know — that our ideas are, objectively speaking, highly unlikely to hold more merit than those of anyone else. Moreover, we are downright mystified by normal people's ability to contain their own ideas, never uttering a peep, not poised to burst at the seams, completely uninterested in unleashing their thoughts on the world the moment those thoughts take an even vaguely coherent form. Shoot, I rarely even have the patience for the coherence stage; let 'er rip! The start of this blog post is a fantastic case in point….
The more I write, the more I must come to grips with the fact that I have little else other than words. For example, I have a need, an apparently compulsive need, to scratch them nightly into my too-small journal until my hand muscles cramp. Actually, I push beyond the cramps, which may explain the illegible handwriting. On the plus side, no need for a secure padlock on one's Daily Journal, if one's Daily Journal bears chicken scratch incapable of being deciphered or decoded by anyone. I even get pissed at myself, muttering curse words surrounding by my first and/or last name, when I revisit some now thoroughly unclear thought crampedly-scrawled only last week. What the hell is the point of all this writing, if even the writer can't read it?
I realize this book "revising" process is an absolutely necessary stone along the path to getting one's book published. So I'm hopscotching on the mossy thing with the best of them. River-dancing on top, even. Big smile forced across my face. Look at me! I'm writing a book!
Except that it feels like I'm not writing.
So I've resolved to pull my attention from the two overflowing shoeboxes holding book drafts 1A and 1B and, when inspired, crank out a little something new here and there. Again, I remind you that this drivel is drivel. No better than your drivel. But I can't function, it seems, without driveling on a regular basis. Like the mushy jack-o-lantern on my neighbor's railed front porch, I gotta be free!
And so, with that, I have some bad news: We've been saying it all wrong. To our mates, to our children, to our co-workers, and to our neighbors. Some of you have even involved your postal carriers in this, I know. It's "Daylight Saving," not "Daylight Savings." My wife dropped this bomb on me Sunday morning, crushing my fragile position as our household's Commander of Words. So you can thank my wife for setting me — and thus all of you — on the righteous path of straightness and narrowness. Sitting here now, I'm reasonably certain that neither "straightness" nor "narrowness" are proper words. But I am so out of actual writing shape, I don't care. I was up at 3am working on my godforsaken book. So I haven't the energy nor the patience, nor any of the other necessary ingredients, to tidy this up. And to add insult to injury, not only have I now been officially dethroned as Resident Wordsmith by my missus, I have also come to the painful realization that I have actually achieved no daylight "savings" of any kind. Ever. Nothing.
But at least I feel a little bit better now regarding the Bubbling and Boiling Beneath Department.

Free Your Mind (Indie Exclusive 2LP Turquoise Vinyl)
In 1973, Amnesty recorded five hard, vocal funk numbers alongside some ballads and a handful of demos based around nothing more than guitar accompaniment. Only two songs were ever released; Amnesty's biting, difficult-to-categorize prog/rock/soul/funk stretched far beyond Indianapolis's bounds and the band didn't have a label to take them to the next level. Finally made available thirty three years after they were recorded, these songs are funk arranged with dangerous complexity and performed with precision – arguably the most unique funk to originate from Naptown, and some of the best music of its kind.

The results of the consultation held between 19th September and 23rd October on whether Potton Town Council should take a loan to help fund Potton Hall for All have been counted and verified. The residents were asked two questions and the majority response to both questions was 'Yes'. This gives Potton Town Council the go ahead to apply to the Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) to gain borrowing approval for a £500,000 loan from the Public Works Loan Board towards the cost of building the hall. Thank you to everyone who took part, whether online or on paper.
Potton Town Council met on the 3rd November 2020, at the meeting the town council agreed to apply for Borrowing Approval from the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government for a £500,000 loan towards the cost of Potton Hall for All project. In advance of making the decision, the town council were advised by Central Bedfordshire Council on Friday 30th October 2020 that Potton Town Council's tax base for 2021-22 will be 2217. The increase to the tax base means that the precept increase will remain the same, but the increase to a band D household is now lower than was specified in the Community Consultation which took place between 19th September and 23rd October 2020.
The resolution from 3rd November 2020 town council meeting:
It was resolved to seek the approval of the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government to apply for a Public Works Loan Board (PWLB) loan of £500,000 over the borrowing term of 15 years for the part funding of Potton Hall for All project. The council tax precept has been increased by £52,271.00 (17.8%) for the purpose of the loan repayments and increases in the costs of the other services with effect from 2021/22: this is the equivalent of £17.26 per band D household (12.4%) (of which £12.88 (9.3%) for loan repayments and £4.38 (3.1%) for other services). The town council consulted on pursuing a PWLB loan and the associated precept increase prior to making the decision to apply for a PWLB loan.
The Potton Hall for All Community Consultation took place between 19th September and 23rd October 2020.
Potton Hall for All is the name for the new purpose built community facility that is planned for development in Potton. The planning for this exciting new space is run by a registered charity (also called Potton Hall For All) – and we share more about the project and the features and benefits of the space here. The Potton Hall For All building really will be a Hall for All; with versatility suiting a range of uses for every function, group and task – unlike no other in the town.
Potton Hall for All has entered a new phase this autumn!
A new community engagement campaign in partnership with Potton Town Council took place in Potton from 19th September to 23rd October 2020. Residents were able to confirm whether they were in agreement for the final funding proposal and help make Potton Hall for all a reality by filling in a short consultation response form.

There was a time when advertising an upcoming event, whether it was an annual conference, a half marathon or a grand opening, used to be pretty straightforward - print up some fliers, maybe get a spot on the local radio station, send out a few postcards and hope word-of-mouth works its magic. People would show up. Hopefully, they enjoyed themselves, learned something or made a purchase. When the event ended, they went home.
Now, thanks to the onslaught of social media, event marketing has entered a whole new realm. In today's hyper-connected world, we RSVP via Facebook and livetweet conferences, and connect with other attendees via the official hashtag. Social media has opened the door to never-before-seen levels of attendance, engagement and buzz, which is great news for event marketing. The only thing limiting your event's success is how effectively you implement these powerful tools.
To help you market your next event with social media, we're put together the following ten tips. Some of them are specific to a particular platform, while others can be used across multiple accounts. By implementing these ideas, I guarantee your next event will be a success—online and in real life.
If you're a business or brand, it can be hard to get your Facebook posts in front of your audience's faces. This is why simply posting about an event isn't enough—you have to also create an actual event for it. Facebook will automatically connect the event to users' calendars and send reminders an hour before it begins, which makes your life a whole lot easier. Make sure you follow best practices when creating your event, such as giving it a clear title, writing a thorough description, and adding the exact location. This will help people find your event and encourage them to RSVP.
As powerful as creating a Facebook event can be, it isn't enough all by itself. This strategy only helps you reach Facebook users—what about all those people on Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat? What about your company blog? You need to also post about your event on these platforms as well, especially if you want maximum reach. You'll also have to make sure you don't simply cut and paste your event into a tweet or photo. Create platform-specific ads and posts that will perform well in each medium. For Twitter, that means hashtags and concise information. For Instagram, it means a great custom photo and a snappy caption.
A picture's worth a thousand words, and eye-catching images will capture your audience's attention more than anything else. You can use photos to build buzz around an event by showing the people who will be involved, the location where it will take place, the freebies and prizes you'll be giving away, and the snacks and beverages you'll be serving. If this is an event you've held before, use the best images from past years to create buzz for this one. While all social media platforms are unique, the one thing they all have in common is that great photos increase engagement. So go ahead—show people what a good time they'll have at your event, and they'll be much more inclined to come.
Remarketing ads are shown to people who visited your website in the last thirty days. This is really effective for events because often, people who are interested in your event won't necessarily buy tickets or register on the first try. Sometimes they want to gather information so they can think about it. The problem is that the world is full of distractions, and they might forget to return to your site. By showing remarketing ads, you can keep your event in front of their eyes and on their mind, making them more likely to bite the bullet. Don't want to show your ad to people who actually bought a ticket? Set the ad to exclude certain website visitors, such as those who viewed the "thank you for registering" page.
If you've planned or attended a wedding in the last two years, you know that the wedding hashtag is almost as important as the wedding vows. The same goes for any big event. Hashtags are great because they help aggregate social media posts from the event across all platforms and encourage attendees to stay engaged and involved in the conversation—sometimes even after the event has ended. Another bonus? Encouraging people to use the hashtag will result in more user-generated, which you can re-share at a later time.
If your event will feature speakers, include their Twitter handles in their bios and other promotional materials. This will encourage attendees to follow them on social media. In some cases, people will even tweet at the speakers while they're talking, or follow up with them later to ask additional questions. It's a great way to encourage deeper engagement among your attendees and add value to their experience.
Video is huge right now, so filming the event is a must. The most popular social media platforms all offer the ability to livestream, so choose one or two and go live! Facebook Live, Instagram Stories, and Snapchat are all great places to post snippets of the fun while it's happening. This allows you to share the experience more widely, so that even people who couldn't make it can still feel involved and included.
Snapchat allows users to create Geofilers for special events that last a specific amount of time. If your event will take place at your store, you can create a Geofiler for just that day. Snapchat has some premade filters that you can edit with your information, but it also allows you to upload unique graphics, such as your logo or hashtag. These Geofilters can be as cheap as $5, depending on how big of an area you want to cover, and are a fun way to encourage attendees to share their experience with their networks.
Your event may be over, but the work continues! A few days after your event is the perfect time to thank those who attended for being a part of your successful event. Email them a great image of the fun and include a selection of the best tweets, posts, and pictures from the hashtag. Don't forget to add a link to a survey they can fill out while the event is still fresh in their minds. This is a great way to get valuable feedback and highlight those who attended with a little social media love. Include a call to action, such as links to your social media accounts, which make your next event even bigger and better.
I hope these tips gave you some solid ideas for using social media to market your events. If you need additional help ensuring that your next event is a success, contact Sage Island and our team will use all our tools to help spread the word.

ENDANGERED SPECIES SPOTLIGHT: Slow Loris
Disclaimer: This post may contain affiliate links. All hosted affiliate links follow our editorial policies.
Photo courtesy Rainforest Rescue
SPECIES: Slow loris (genus Nycticebus)
CURRENT RANGE: Tropical evergreen rainforests across Southeast Asia
CURRENT THREATS: Deforestation and the illegal animal trade
WHERE YOU CAN SEE THEM: In Southern Asia (from India east to China and the Philippines) and zoos all over the world
Slow Lorises are a group of several species of primates, varying in colour from grey to white depending on their range, with dark rings around their eyes and a stripe running down their back. There are eight valid types of Slow Soris, each with their own variation in colour. Their strong grasp (with both hands and feet) make them accomplished climbers, albeit unhurried. They can grow up to 38cm tall and range in weight depending on the species, from 250g to 2 kilos. Because they're nocturnal and live in trees, during the day you'll usually find the slow loris curled up in a tight ball high in the branches, with their head between their thighs. They stir around sunset and walk slowly on all fours, usually alone, through the forest, the males having a larger range than the females. They're the only primate in the world with a venemous bite, releasing a flesh-rotting poison that can be fatal to humans.

Why are they endangered?
Due to the cute and cuddly, teddy-bear like face of the Slow Loris, they've been high on the list of animals poached for Asia's illegal pet trade for a long time. Search for the Slow Loris on YouTube, and thousands of videos will pop up of people tickling their pet loris and giving them props to hold. Poachers remove the animal's teeth either before taking them to the market, or at the point of sale at the buyer's request. They're then thrown in cages and exposed to daylight and baking heat, where most of them die before they are sold. The Slow Loris is also know as "the animal that cures 100 diseases," and is often killed for use in traditional Asian medicine. Deforestation is putting the Slow Loris at an even greater risk. Just 10% of the forest is left on Java, the main island in Indonesia, which has resulted in a massive decline in the slow loris population there. These problems have grown so severe that the three new species of Slow Loris discovered in December 2012 have already been put on the IUCN Red List.
What's being done to save them?
International Animal Rescue has set up a Slow Loris center in West Java, which was featured in the BBC Natural World documentary Jungle Gremlins of Java in 2012. The center treats, rehabilitates and socialises around 100 Slow Lorises, which have either been surrendered by their owners or confiscated from the illegal poaching trade. There are a few other projects around the world working to help the species, such as The Little Fireface Project and Change.org. In January 2013, Rainforest Rescue presented a petition with nearly 50,000 signatures to the Indonesian Embassy in Berlin, protesting the illegal trade of the Slow Loris. They spoke to the deputy ambassador about the problem of poaching, leading him to admit that while there are environmental laws in place, violations happen far too often. The petition will now be forwarded to the Indonesian government, and action will hopefully be taken from there to protect the species. –Emma Jane Higgins

I have not finished my degree yet but I knew that I wanted to go back at some time to finish. I had been in the food industry for years, then decided that I loved cooking so wanted to open my own food truck and call it Hot Mess. I had the food truck for 2 years and decided that I loved cooking for enjoyment not for money. Then I got into management with a company in Events. I liked it but I wanted out of the food industry so I decided to take a leap and come to Fort Worth and get into something new, but did not know what that would be. Here I am now.
I was never drawn to the field I just needed something to help me get on my feet. I love to be independent and sales can be a job where it takes 100% of you to get it done and I like that. I have friends in the field but it was never discussed what it entailed. Once I saw what the school could give me and the opportunity that would be presented to me after school and the income of the field I jumped on it.
It took me 1 month exactly to get a job in the field after school. I was discouraged because I was told that since I didn't have a degree it could take 6 months to get a job and that's a long time. I will say that despite what I was told I had to drive myself daily to stay positive and really push myself to get a job. I knew that since I didn't have a degree I had to really show what I had that was better than a degree in the sales field.
I did. That the money I spent would be a waste. That I had not been in college and that environment in over 5 years or more and it would be hard. I can see how it can be hard but I had a mindset that I would give my best daily and work hard. I had to drive an hour to school every morning and an hour half back and sometimes 2 hours. That took up my study time.
I decided that I was going to just see what it had to offer and would go ahead and go through the acceptance process. I was not sure the entire time if this was something I wanted to do. After I had gotten the call that I was accepted I decided that this was something I wanted to look further into and that I was willing to make the investment in the school to help me with my job looking process.
I looked forward to every day of class. I loved my instructor, Rick Prentiss. I wouldn't want any other instructor ever. The courses had so much information to learn, but for me it was fun! I don't think that I would have done as well in the class as I did if it was with any other instructor and I can't express that enough. He was patient, he was very knowledgeable and had so many good stories and examples of everyday life in the medical sales field.
I had a phone interview with the 2 Senior Reps of Medex first and then was asked to come and meet them in person as well as the 2 owners at a Restaurant. It was me with 4 men in the interview. I was over prepared for the interview thanks to all of Scott Binder's information. I have never walked into an interview and been more confident that I was the one for the job than I did in that moment. I had my Business Plan ready to hand out, I had my closing line for asking for the job down, and I knew walking away from my interview I had done great job. The preparation from Placement Services helped me get the job.
I truly feel like my Business Plan 30/60/90 is what landed me the job. It was the time I spent learning their company and making my plan around their goals and values. They were blown away that I had the Business Plan ready to present to them before I left. I would encourage everyone going into an interview to have a Business Plan prepared and with them because too many people think it's not worth it. WRONG!
I am still new into it but I am helping the Senior reps with their cases, making sure they have everything they need, and that all their sets are stocked and ready for each case. I will be in training for the cases as well as in sales training for about 6-12 months. Once I have completed the training I will then have my own territory.
The most valuable thing I took away from the school was the advice to always be prepared for things to change and not go the way they were expected. To be ready for something to come up last minute and just to always be prepared.

On September 28th, 1957, the dancehall and reggae deejay artist Robert Russell, better known as Brigadier Jerry was born in the Papine area of Kingston, Jamaica. Brigadier Jerry is also called The General and is famous for his "cultural" lyrics. He found his interest in music at an early age, originally connecting with U-Roy and his King Stur-Gav Hi-Fir sound system. Brigadier Jerry first appeared on stage as a stand-up comedian, but he switched to deejaying for local sound systems instead.
In 1978, he joined the Rastafarian branch of the Twelve Tribes of Israel organization and proceeded to spread their message via the Jah Love Muzik sound system. By 1980, he had become one of the most popular sound system performers in Jamaica. Brigadier Jerry recorded for Studio One during the 1980s and had his first hits with producer Delroy Stansbury on the Jwyanza label in 1982. These included "Pain" (on the Answer/Never Let Go riddim) and "Gwan a School." His first album was a recording of a live performance – "Live at the Controls" – in 1983. His first studio album was "Jamaica, Jamaica," which was released in 1985. For the major part of his career, he has toured Jamaica and the world, performing over innumerable sound systems. He has recorded many albums and continues to put out an occasional single, including on the Ranking Joe label, but is chiefly a live performer.
Brigadier Jerry is known for his talent for improvising, and he raised the standards of the art with his speed and fluidity in deejay chanting. He forged a path for those who followed, focusing on subject matter that was nearly always spiritual and cultural in nature mixed with a sense of humor.
Many music historians and fans consider him to be U-Roy's greatest pupil. Other famous students of U-Roy include Ranking Joe, Josey Wales, Charlie Chaplin, U Brown and Buju Banton.
From 1988 to 1991, Brigadier Jerry lived in New York with his wife and children, and then returned to Jamaica in 1992 where he again performed on the Jah Love Muzik sound system and recorded the album "On the Road." Brigadier Jerry was a mentor to female deejay Sister Carol and actively deejayed almost all of the prominent sound systems in Jamaica. In 1995, he released "Hail Him," an album under the Tapper Zukie label, and the album "Freedom Street" on the VP label.
When U-Roy revived the King Stur-Gav Hi-Fi sound system, Brigadier Jerry joined him as his touring deejay and traveled extensively with U-Roy around the world.

Miami takes down FSU for third year in a row
Chase Nevitt
College football is home to some of the most historic rivalries in all of sports. Over the years, Miami and Florida State's outings against each other have developed into one of the fiercest rivalries in football, with the end result oftentimes defining the success of a team's season.
The Seminoles' most recent loss against Miami could have a detrimental impact on the outlook of Florida State's season, which is reflected by a 4-5 record.
On Saturday, Miami defeated FSU by a score of 27-10 in Tallahassee to earn their third straight win in the series. After the loss, second-year Seminoles head coach Willie Taggart spoke on the Seminoles' disappointment following the game.
"Of course we're frustrated with the loss," Taggart said. "To be honest with you, words aren't going to make it better right now."
Miami hit the ground running early and often in the first quarter, scoring on the 'Canes' third drive of the game off of Jarren Williams' 39-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Jeff Thomas. The 'Noles responded with a field goal converted by Ricky Aguayo just minutes into the second quarter, but that proved to be Florida State's only score of the half.
The Garnet and Gold struggled to gain any sort of momentum against the 'Canes' stout defense; this can be largely attributed to Florida State's sloppy play, as well as a plethora of pre-snap penalties. FSU committed 10 penalties, which accounted for 75 yards lost.
Graduate transfer and 'Noles starting quarterback Alex Hornibrook spoke on what the team needs to do to eliminate these costly damages following the game.
"It is something we have been harping on all season to eliminate those penalties," Hornibrook said. "We have to all take ownership of it and do a better job, because it is all preventable."
Hornibrook passed for a mere 135 yards while completing 17-24 passes on the night. FSU displayed a reluctance to throw the ball downfield, yet Miami's defense played a major role in limiting opportunities to do so. The 'Canes' defensive line was relentless, consistently forcing pressure on Hornibrook while causing him to get rid of the ball swiftly.
The Seminoles' offensive line had one of the worst performances that the group has had all season. Hornibrook was sacked nine times, which stands as a new program record, in terms of most sacks given up in a game.
With that being said, Florida State's defense did little to prevent Miami from taking over the contest.
The 'Noles' defense struggled to maintain a consistent pass rush, and ultimately allowed Williams to get into a groove that led Miami's offense to 353 total yards gained. After Florida State scored to cut the lead to seven points early in the third quarter, Miami's offense began to put the game away.
Three minutes into the fourth quarter, the 'Noles' comeback effort was lost. FSU gave up a crushing 56-yard touchdown pass, putting Miami up by two scores. Just moments later, Miami added another three points to the scoreboard and sealed the 'Canes' most important win of the season.
Looking ahead, Florida State needs to improve their play on both sides of the ball should they hope to salvage this season. FSU needs to win two games of their final three games to secure bowl eligibility for the first time in the Taggart era. The 'Noles face a ACC Atlantic division opponent in Boston College on the road next week before finishing the season against Alabama State and the top 25 ranked rival Gators. Taggart knows it's now or never for the Seminoles, and these next three weeks can help flip the script that is the 2019 season.
"We got to come ready to practice," Taggart said. "We got three guaranteed games waiting for us, and they're all important. We got to go on the road and play BC. We got to get back to work and find a way to get back."

The Dog Days of Summer V
People used to believe that snakes went blind during the Dog Days of Summer, because it's a time when some snakes shed their skin.
That night after Ma made her scrub the floors, and after dinner of thin chicken soup with scraps of chicken from last night's dinner, the girl lay in her bed thinking about the witch woman. Maybe if she could find the woman again, she could take Papa's rifle and make the woman tell her how to make the rains come. She threw off the hot sheets and tip-toed to the open window even though there wasn't even a hint of a breeze. Staring out at the fields around the house she wondered where the woman lived. The girl hadn't ever seen the old woman before, but that didn't mean much. Marcus would've known. He always knew stuff like that. But then again he got to go into town a lot with his Pa. She only went into town to go to school. Sighing, she was about to go back to bed when she heard her Papa's voice from downstairs. It sounded like he was fighting with Ma again. They fought a lot when the rains didn't come.
She crept to her bedroom door and opened it slowly, then slid out into the hallway. When she reached the top of the stairs, she could hear her parent's voices from the kitchen.
"How dare they!" Her Ma was saying. "How dare they even think it?"
"It's been almost three months with no rain." Her Papa replied. "People was bound to start thinkin'."
"But it's absurd. She isn't even a summer child. She was born in autumn. It has to be a summer child."
"There ain't none left of proper age. Town's gotten too small."
"But can't we weather one dry year? Surely after last year's...after the rains came, the crops were bountiful and people had plenty. If we all share, we can survive one dry year." Her Ma's voice was all sharp and prickly. "And if not, why her? The Rouston's have three. Three! It isn't right."
"They ain't proper age and you know it."
"We should leave. We should've left last year."
"And go where?" Her Papa's voice was tired.
"Somewhere where we don't have to sacrifice to make the rains come."
"Hush now," the girl watched her Papa's shadow move close to her Ma's across the worn wooden floor, "there ain't no place like that. Not anymore."
The girl thought she could hear her Ma crying, but her parents didn't speak anymore, so she slipped back into her bedroom and lay down on her bed thinking about what she'd heard instead of thinking about the old woman.

The Dog Days of Summer IV
Because the star Sirius, also known as the Dog Star, is so bright, the ancient Romans thought it contributed to the sun's heat. (Farmers Almanac)
The woman smiled in a way that didn't seem much like a smile. "There's some folks think they know a way to make the rain come."
The girl wasn't sure what that meant, but it was even hotter by the lake than in the grass and she was getting mad at the woman for talking in riddles. "Do you know or not?"
The woman's not-smile faded and she opened her mouth to speak-
"Girl! Come away from there!"
The girl cringed then turned to find her father coming down the path that led from the south field and the house to the lake.
"Your mother been lookin' for you."
The girl nodded but didn't move. "Yessir."
Her father eyed the old woman warily. "You ain't talkin' crazy talk to my daughter are ya now?"
The old woman's face had gone stern. "She asked me if I knew how to make the rains come."
The girl's father frowned, his weather-tanned skin going pale, but then he turned to his daughter. "Ain't no one knows how to do that. We just have to pray to the good Lord and if it's his will, the rains will come." He was close enough to take her arm now. "Now come away home or your ma will go mad lookin' for us both." He faced the old woman once more. "You just stay away from her, you hear?"
The woman stood her ground. "Was just trying to be the girl's friend. Seems she's missing one."
The girl's father's face tinged red and he spun and pulled her toward the path without saying more.
When they were in the dry, dying stalks of the south field, the girl spoke. "Pa, is that woman a witch?"
He didn't stop or look at her. "No. She's just a crazy old woman. Stay away from her."
"She said that this plant called al-gee killed all the fish in the lake."
"See, crazy talk. The heat boiled the lake and killed them fish."
The girl frowned. "Oh."

Q: what are facets in MarkLogic I have going thru the facets topic in MarkLogic. I searched over the internet but found advanced topics of how to create and range indexes etc. But, I am lacking the basic to understand what exactly is it.
Can anyone help me explain in a normal language?

A: A facet is a grouping of records based upon an indexed term or range of values.

a constraint used for navigation on search results, providing a set of values that exist matching documents. Facets usually include a count of the resulting number of distinct values. Facets returned by a search include the counts and values needed to generate the user interface for the results. For example, a data set of articles could provide facets on author and publication date.

Think of various websites that present price ranges, sizes, and other means of filtering and categorizing the list of items on the website. They often show how many items match a given term, and allow you to click on them to apply as a filter to your search and further narrow your search.

Faceted search is a technique which involves augmenting traditional search techniques with a faceted navigation system, allowing users to narrow down search results by applying multiple filters based on faceted classification of the items. A faceted classification system classifies each information element along multiple explicit dimensions, called facets, enabling the classifications to be accessed and ordered in multiple ways rather than in a single, pre-determined, taxonomic order.
Facets correspond to properties of the information elements. They are often derived by analysis of the text of an item using entity extraction techniques or from pre-existing fields in a database such as author, descriptor, language, and format. Thus, existing web-pages, product descriptions or online collections of articles can be augmented with navigational facets.

Facets can show grouped counts of values or buckets with ranges of values (i.e. less than $25, $25-$50, $50-100, more than $100) and can be used to constrain searches with faceted navigation.
Check out this MarkLogic blog post Searching with constraints and facets that provides a brief overview and example of how to implement.
