Vida
Maggie Gobran, muitas vezes referida como a Madre Teresa do Cairo, é uma senhora cristã copta que já viveu um estilo de vida rico, protegida da pobreza e da miséria. Apesar disso, ela ainda experimentou perseguição como cristã no Egito. Em 1989, ela desistiu de sua carreira acadêmica para se tornar uma cristã copta ortodoxa, serva consagrada, e fundou a instituição de caridade Stephen's Children, cujo objetivo é melhorar a vida dos filhos de cristãos e famílias que vivem nas favelas do Cairo e em comunidades pobres na zona rural do Alto Egito. Ela também oferece ajuda a crianças muçulmanas e bahá'ís empobrecidas.

Em 2019, ela foi agraciada com o Prêmio Internacional Mulheres de Coragem pelo Departamento dos Estados Unidos e pela primeira-dama americana Melania Trump. Em 2020, Maggie foi indicada pela BBC na lista das 100 mulheres mais inspiradoras do mundo.

The power of Augmented Reality resides in its capacity to amplify human possibility, says HELEN PAPAGIANNIS. A world-leading expert in the field, and the bestselling author of Augmented Human, Papagiannis studies the cross-realities emerging in the world today, and how they will influence everything from business to culture to behavior. AR is no longer about technology—it's about living in the real world—and Papagiannis explains how we can design enriching, human-centered experiences for our virtual future.
For the last fifteeen years, Helen Papagiannis has been working with AR as a researcher, designer, consultant, and technology evangelist. Aside from its potential to change the future of work and learning, AR transforms the way we interact with the world at large, says Papagiannis. She dives into the endless applications of the technology, showing us how it amplifies human intelligence, focuses our engagement with real spaces, and improves health and accessibility for all. Today, people living with autism can use the technology to prepare for job interviews, retail stores can allow customers to virtually try their products, and we can even lessen cognitive overload with "calm" technology such as responsive garments. A highly experiential medium, AR is updating everything from the way we translate language and travel to foreign countries, to the way we experience culture. On her website XRGoesPop, Papagiannis introduces us to the discipline of XR— Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, and Virtual Beings—and documents how it permeates art, fashion, music, games, and celebrity. But for all her optimism, Papagiannis is not blind to the challenges of implementing this new technology. Alongside the fascinating opportunities, she also examines and reveals the ethical issues that arise, and how companies, cities, and individuals can adapt.
For her tireless work in the field, Papagiannis was invited to become a member of the World Economic Forum's Global Future Council on Virtual and Augmented Reality. There, she works alongside leading experts to challenge assumptions, develop new ideas, and inform decision-makers around the world on how to reshape global systems. In addition to her role on the council, Papagiannis is an Executive Member of the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS) and a judge for the Webby Awards, the leading international award honoring excellence on the Internet.
Papagiannis has presented her interactive work and Ph.D. research at global conferences including TEDx, ISMAR (International Society for Mixed and Augmented Reality), and ISEA (International Symposium for Electronic Art). Her TEDx talk was featured among the Top 10 Talks on Augmented Reality and Gamified Life. Papagiannis is also the author of Augmented Human, an insightful guide to the fast-moving technology and how anyone can take advantage of it. Previously, Papagiannis was a member of the internationally renowned Bruce Mau Design studio where she was project lead on Massive Change: The Future of Global Design, an internationally touring exhibition and best-selling book examining the new inventions, technologies, and events changing the world. Papagiannis was named among the NEXT 100 Top Influencers of the Digital Media Industry. She is the former Chief Innovation Officer at Infinity Augmented Reality Inc. and Senior Research Associate at York University's Augmented Reality Lab.
"I had no idea how big augmented reality could be, and how big it is at the moment. This was a keynote that kept making me say "wow". It's one of my favorite keynotes of all time, and Helen just did an incredible job."
John Hinchliffe, Instructional Design Expert at UAEU
"On behalf of CANARIE and all of our National Summit guests, I want to thank Helen for an excellent presentation that beautifully set the stage for the rest of the event. Her content and presentation style were perfect and I sincerely hope our paths cross again in the future."
Kathryn Anthonisen, VP of External Relations at CANARIE Inc.
Augmented Human How Technology Is Shaping the New Reality
Our digital future is no longer a distant promise, but a rapidly growing industry with real-world clout. Consider Facebook's $2 billion acquisition of Virtual Reality headset maker Oculus and their new AR campus of 400 people, Microsoft's recent release of HoloLens2, and the 1.25 billion raised by Epic Games this past year. In this truly cutting-edge talk, Dr. Helen Papagiannis helps us understand the significance of Augmented Reality (AR), and how it is further being organically integrated into our everyday lives. What opportunities does AR present for business, design, and culture? How can we contribute to and help define this new technological era? And how will it forever change the way we live, work, and play? With great gusto and up-to-the-minute examples, Dr. Papagiannis leads us head-on into our virtual future.
XRGoesPop Understanding the Future Across Multiple Realities
We live in a world of multiple realities—Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, and Virtual Beings. From this evolution emerges the growing discipline of XR, defined by Dr. Helen Papagiannis as analysis "across realities." As in her brilliantly interactive website XRGoesPop, this talk offers a fascinating and cutting-edge look at the way these cross-realities are permeating contemporary culture, from high, to low, to pop (and everything in between). In her trademark nimble speaking style, Papagiannis documents how these extensions of reality are informing and advancing culture though art, fashion, music, games, and celebrity. Don't think that this is simply about art and entertainment. Rather, as Papagiannis articulates, popular culture is a mirror into which we can track trends related to commerce and politics. What does XR mean to you and your business? Papagiannis will ask you all the right questions, helping you discern the realities you should be preparing to explore.

Q: Mybatis foreach iteration over list of integers within a complex object parameter I am using MyBatis 3.2.8 in a Play Framework 2.3.6 Java project. I've been struggling for several days with iterating over a list of integers that is passed to a MyBatis mapper within a complex object parameter. Here is my setup:
I have a class called EventFilter in EventFilter.java:
public class EventFilter {
private String beginDate;
private String endDate;
private List<Integer> closestCountry;
private List<Integer> territorialWaterStatus;
private List<Integer> vesselCountry;
private String closestCountryInClause;
private String territorialWaterStatusInClause;
private String vesselCountryInClause;

public EventFilter() { }

public EventFilter(JsonNode jsonNode){
    this.beginDate = jsonNode.get("beginDate").asText();
    this.endDate = jsonNode.get("endDate").asText();
    this.closestCountry = JsonHelper.arrayNodeToIntegerList((ArrayNode) jsonNode.get("closestCountry"));
    this.territorialWaterStatus = JsonHelper.arrayNodeToIntegerList((ArrayNode) jsonNode.get("territorialWaterStatus"));
    this.vesselCountry = JsonHelper.arrayNodeToIntegerList((ArrayNode) jsonNode.get("vesselCountry"));
}

public String getBeginDate() {
    return beginDate;
}

public void setBeginDate(String beginDate) {
    this.beginDate = beginDate;
}

public String getEndDate() {
    return endDate;
}

public void setEndDate(String endDate) {
    this.endDate = endDate;
}

public List<Integer> getTerritorialWaterStatus() {
    if(this.territorialWaterStatus.size() > 0) {
        return territorialWaterStatus;
    } else {
        return null;
    }
}

public void setTerritorialWaterStatus(List<Integer> territorialWaterStatus) {
    this.territorialWaterStatus = territorialWaterStatus;
}

public List<Integer> getClosestCountry() {
    if(this.closestCountry.size() > 0) {
        return closestCountry;
    } else {
        return null;
    }
}

public void setClosestCountry(List<Integer> closestCountry) {
    this.closestCountry = closestCountry;
}

public List<Integer> getVesselCountry() {
    if(this.vesselCountry.size() > 0) {
        return vesselCountry;
    } else {
        return null;
    }
}

public void setVesselCountry(List<Integer> vesselCountry) {
    this.vesselCountry = vesselCountry;
}

}
This is referenced as a type alias in my mybatis config file:
<configuration>

<typeAliases>
    <typeAlias type="models.Event" alias="Event"/>
    <typeAlias type="models.EventFilter" alias="EventFilter"/>
    <typeAlias type="models.Country" alias="Country"/>
</typeAliases>

<environments default="development">
    <environment id="development">
        <transactionManager type="JDBC"/>
        <dataSource type="POOLED">
            <property name="driver" value="org.postgresql.Driver"/>
            <property name="url" value="jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/mpmap"/>
            <property name="username" value="postgres"/>
            <property name="password" value="dbpw"/>
        </dataSource>
    </environment>
</environments>

<mappers>
    <mapper resource="EventMapper.xml"/>
</mappers>
</configuration>

I have a mapper that takes an EventFilter object as its parameter. It should then check if the beginDate, endDate, closestCountry, vesselCountry, and territorialWaterStatus are set. If they are it uses them for the WHERE clause:
<select id="getEventsWithFilter" resultType="Event" resultMap="EventResult">
    SELECT ev.id, to_char(ev.occurred_on, 'YYYY-MM-DD') AS occurred_on_date,
        to_char(ev.occurred_on, 'HH24:MI:SS') AS occurred_on_time,
        ST_X(ev.location) AS longitude, ST_Y(ev.location) AS latitude,
        COALESCE(co01.name, 'Unspecified') AS closest_country,
        COALESCE(co02.name, 'Unspecified') AS territorial_water_status,
        COALESCE(co03.name, 'Unspecified') AS vessel_flag_country
    FROM event AS ev
    LEFT JOIN country AS co01
        ON co01.cow_id = ev.location_closest_country_id
    LEFT JOIN country AS co02
        ON co02.cow_id = ev.location_water_status_country_id
    LEFT JOIN country AS co03
        ON co03.cow_id = ev.vessel_flag_country_id
    <where>
        <if test="#{eventFilter.beginDate} != null and #{eventFilter.endDate} != null">
            ev.occurred_on >= #{eventFilter.beginDate}::timestamp AND ev.occurred_on <= #{eventFilter.endDate}::timestamp
        </if>
        <if test="#{eventFilter.closestCountry} != null">
            AND ev.location_closest_country_id IN
            <foreach item="id" index="index" collection="#{eventFilter.closestCountry}" open="(" separator="," close=")">
                #{id}
            </foreach>
        </if>
        <if test="#{eventFilter.territorialWaterStatus} != null">
            AND ev.location_water_status_country_id IN
            <foreach item="id" index="index" collection="#{eventFilter.territorialWaterStatus}" open="(" separator="," close=")">
                #{id}
            </foreach>
        </if>
        <if test="#{eventFilter.vesselCountry} != null">
            AND ev.vessel_flag_country_id IN
            <foreach item="id" index="index" collection="#{eventFilter.vesselCountry}" open="(" separator="," close=")">
                #{id}
            </foreach>
        </if>
    </where>
    ORDER BY ev.occurred_on ASC;
</select>

I have the mapper linked into an interface as follows:
    public List<Event> getEventsWithFilter(@Param("eventFilter") EventFilter eventFilter);

And I am calling it with a MybatisMapper helper class that generates my session as follows:
public static List<Event> getEvents(EventFilter eventFilter) {
    MybatisMapper mapper = new MybatisMapper();
    SqlSession session = mapper.getSession();
    EventMapper eventMapper = session.getMapper(EventMapper.class);

    List<Event> events;

    List<Integer> li = eventFilter.getClosestCountry();

    try {
        events = eventMapper.getEventsWithFilter(eventFilter);
    } finally {
        session.close();
    }

    return events;
}

The Problem(s):
The beginDate and endDate work completely fine by themselves. But I'm having the following problems with the integer lists:

*

*The if statement checking if the list is null seems to be getting
ignored, or evaluating to true when it should be false.

*The integer lists are appearing to be passed as null into the IN clauses.

*If I comment out the integer list IN clauses, and just to beginDate and
endDate, it works completely fine. However, if I leave the integer
list IN clauses, the query doesn't fail, but it returns an empty
set, as if to say "WHERE column IN ()".

Here is the console logging printed by Play and Mybatis when the mapper/query are executed, along with the EventFilter printing its contents. They're a little lengthy so I put them in pastebin:

*

*When I pass three countries for each of the three integer lists: http://pastebin.com/aWcXyikh

*When I pass only the beginDate and endDate: http://pastebin.com/CeCv256g
This became a little longer than I wanted it to, but thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

A: I finally got it working. The only thing I ended up having to change was addressing the parameter lists in my XML mapper without the surrounding curly braces.
So instead of:
 <if test="#{eventFilter.closestCountry} != null">
        AND ev.location_closest_country_id IN
        <foreach item="id" index="index" collection="#{eventFilter.closestCountry}" open="(" separator="," close=")">
            #{id}
        </foreach>
    </if>

It should be:
<if test="eventFilter.closestCountry != null">
            AND ev.location_closest_country_id IN
            <foreach item="id" index="index" collection="eventFilter.closestCountry" open="(" separator="," close=")">
                #{id}
            </foreach>
        </if>

Which is odd, because addressing strings in the passed object works with either method - i.e. #{eventFilter.beginDate} is the same as eventFilter.beginDate.
A very subtle difference, but I hope it helps someone save some time in the future.

A: try this
<if test="eventFilter.closestCountry != null">
        AND ev.location_closest_country_id IN
        <foreach item="id" index="index" collection="eventFilter.closestCountry" open="(" separator="," close=")">
            ${id}
        </foreach>
    </if>

A: I'm using MyBatis v. 3.4.6.
My case:
@Mapper
public interface CorsoMapper {
    List<CorsoEntity> elenco(Filtro filtro);
}

public class Filtro implements Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = -8357822764110641974L;

    private String codice;
    private List<String> codici;

    public String getCodice() {
        return codice;
    }

    public void setCodice(String codice) {
        this.codice = codice;
    }

    public List<String> getCodici() {
        return codici;
    }

    public void setCodici(List<String> codici) {
        this.codici = codici;
    }
}

SQL:
<select id="elencoCorsi" parameterType="it.blabla.Filtro" resultMap="corsoMap">
    AND CODICI IN
    <foreach item="c" collection="codici" open="(" separator="," close=")">
       #{c}
    </foreach>
</select>

It works without using "index" attribute.

Q: Power amplifier design for increasing output current and reducing output impedance of a function generator When I use a function generator to feed a common mode LC filter (L = 200 μH in common mode, C = 2nF) with 1 MHz, 10 Vp-p, I observed that the function generator was unable to supply that much load.
So I am planning to design a power amplifier (basically, a current amplifier) with the following specification:

*

*Frequency range: 0-10 MHz (or at least 0-5 MHz)

*Output voltage: 10 Vpp

*Maximum output load: at least 2 A

The input current is expected to be very low as it will be fed from a simple function generator (max. output current is not specified in the function generator manual, but I think it should be less than 30 mA).
If you have any idea about how to design one, please suggest!

A: A Class AB should do fine. Make sure, the opamp has enough GBW product.
The transistors must be well cooled. Small emitter resistor can help to avoid bias current runaway. Class AB is not easy with heat playing a role, but I believe that Class D will be even harder in this case and Class B will ruin your nice generator waveforms.

Tarutyne (; ) es una localidad en el Raión de Bolhrad del Óblast de Odesa del sudeste de Ucrania. Es el centro administrativo del Raión de Tarutyne.

Historia
Tarutino fue fundada en 1814 por inmigrantes alemanes como un pueblo en el apartado 3. Los inmigrantes establecidos aquí provenían principalmente de la región del norte de Alemania. Entre ellos se encontraban unas 500 personas de Prusia, 250 de Polonia prusiana y el 90 de Mecklemburgo. Sólo cerca de 70 eran de Wurtemberg. Por lo tanto, se hablaba en el pueblo alemán. Al elegir una ubicación, la fuente de agua fue crucial para su establecimineto. Originalmente, el lugar fue llamado por instancias de la Federación de Rusia "Elisabeth", más tarde renombrado a Tarutyne. Esto se debe a una batalla victoriosa de los rusos contra Napoleón durante la Guerra Patriótica de 1812 en el pueblo de la provincia de Kaluga Tarutyne.

La localidad pertenecía al Imperio ruso hasta 1918, luego pasó al Reino de Rumanía y en 1940 fue tomada por soviéticos. Entre 1941 a 1944 fue ocupada por Rumania, después de lo cual formó parte de la RSS de Ucrania, y en 1991, ya como parte de la actual Ucrania.

Life at Pemberley: "Walk The Line"
Husband and I went to see "Walk The Line" last night. I had heard it was an amazingly good movie and it was even better than I knew it would be. Everyone should go see that movie. It has two of my favorite actors in it and they are incredible.
We left the movie theater even more in love with each other than before because of watching the love story of Johnny and June Carter Cash. What a wonderful and true story! If you haven't seen this movie, you should go see it!

2018 is proving to have brought Direct to Consumer "D2C" strategies mainstream. Brands like Casper, Brooklinen, and Lola, to name a few, have made D2C business models their battle cry, cutting out the middleman to lower cost for customers, creating simple straightforward value that increases their bottom line.
Customers now have a more tailored brand journey, which a third party can't mess up with outdated technology or hidden shipping costs.
Now more than ever, consumers are socially conscious. Brands, whether multi-national, multi-billion-dollar or single-person start-ups, are increasingly aware that alignment with positive causes is not only good for the planet, but also for their bottom line. Take Versace for example, who recently announced – No Fur for fashion.
Whatever your brand, business or startup, it's important to know why you are in the game in the first place; and those values should be in line with your cause for activism. Sincerity to yourself and your customers is key.
If you're unclear, start with "why" and work your way out. Some of you already imbue values which you are not employing in your strategies; take a step back and assess your message to the market.
Not sure how I can help.
Brands can damage the planet in many ways, and its people and consumers are holding brands responsible for their actions. Studies found that consumers no longer find the traditional brands desirable, especially in the "luxury" market. Instead, brands making conscious efforts are capturing the hearts and minds of consumers.
So, how can traditional, especially luxury brands, adapt and stay relevant?
By seriously engaging with issues like inclusion and diversity, greenhouse gas emissions, raw materials, and product design, or labor issues, brands can build winning brand strategies.
Collaboration enables you to trade your skills to open doors to a wider audience. Collaboration in the fashion world is now standard practice; key partnerships last year include Adidas x Yoshi Yamamoto, Public School x Jordan, Louis Vuitton x Supreme, inter alia. Yet the possibilities extend well beyond the world of retail, with apparent collaboration in hospitality and co-working spaces like Spring Place & Eleven Madison Park or Dirty Lemons and Sweet Greens.
By assessing your capabilities and seeking out new potentials for creativity, you can create new possibilities for your brand.
One thing is for sure, wonderful things are on the horizon with great areas of opportunity in the instability. Being flexible and able to adapt while remaining authentic will bring forth new relationships and opportunities.
Have an idea? I can help.

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo vowed to hold Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his government "accountable for their corruption," as he wrapped up a 4-nation tour of South America in Colombia on Sunday.
Details: Pompeo made the pledge after meeting with Venezuelan migrants near Colombia's border with Venezuela. He called on Maduro to lift his aid blockade. "Mr. Maduro, open these bridges, open these borders," he said, invoking President Reagan's 1987 "tear down this wall" speech in Berlin. "I hope that you will care enough when you see the horror ... to change your ways and to leave your country."
Context: The Washington Post reports Pompeo responded testily earlier at a Lima press conference to a question on whether Peru might consider speaking with Maduro if Western sanctions left the refugee and humanitarian crisis in a worse state. He said it "showed an incredible lack of understanding" before blaming "the Russians, the Cubans" and Maduro.
The big picture: The U.S. sanctions are designed to deprive Maduro of assets and pile pressure on him to resign. They have crippled the country's oil industry. Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) said last week the U.S. "must consider the use of military assets to bring aid to the people of Venezuela."

Q: Conjugate Hyperpriors I heard it was possible to have a Bayesian model with likelihood, prior and hyperprior that has a posterior of closed form, by choosing a conjugate prior and conjugate hyperprior. But I struggle to imagine how that would work, except for models where likelihood and prior are the same.
E.g. when I have a Normal-Normal model, a Normal hyperprior would probably result in a Normal posterior. But how would that work for other distributions? For example, could a Dirichlet prior and Multinomial likelihood be enhanced with a conjugate hyperprior?

Monday's Connector: Bob Bradley
American football coach, Bob Bradley is fresh off his team's tough defeat at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, but still maintains that he is proud for how his side have done.

The 52-year-old manager of the American national soccer team took the U.S. side unbeaten through the group stage matches with a win against Algeria and draws against England and Slovenia.
In the second round, the American team played a tough Ghana side and the game went into extra time with the Ghana team eventually claiming victory with a 1-2 win.
"I thought at 1-1 we had a chance, but we didn't have enough freshness against all of Ghana's power," Bradley said.
"We have a great squad. We're proud but also disappointed not to have gone further."
Bradley took over managing the team in December 2006 and quickly took his team to a number of wins in friendly matches against teams like Mexico.
In his first year as manager, Bradley took the U.S. side to an impressive record of 12 wins, one draw and five losses.
One of the highlight's for the U.S. side came in 2009 when the team finished in second place in the Confederations Cup. The Americans even managed to beat the world's number one ranked team and European champions, Spain.

Future Connector: Namgyal Lhagyari
Born and raised in India, Namgyal Wangchuk Trichen Lhagyari is the only direct descendent of the first Dharma king of Tibet, who was crowned in 617 AD.

As part of the Tibetan royal family, the 17-year-old has spent all his life in exile.
In June 2004, Namgyal was coronated during a ceremony presided over by Tibetan spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama.
He is celebrated for being the descendant of the great Kings of Tibet.
Namgyal has just finished his high-school education and is about to head for a university in the United States.
However, before he furthered his education, Namgyal wanted to tell the story of the Tibetan people through their eyes.
As a result he has been working alongside the BYkids non-profit organization – which aims to match the world's youth with experienced filmmakers to cover globally relevant issues.
It has led to the production of "My Country Tibet," a new documentary in which Namgyal, who conducted his own interviews, speaks with Tibetans about how they live their lives and balance their religion with their sense of identity.

I Feel Cheap and Hurt Cos I Gave my All.
Good morning ma, your advice to people pushed me to discuss with you. I am 26 years old in a relationship with a guy of 40 years old just for three months. We ended it two weeks today because right from the onset he said he likes me and he wanted us to go into the relationship. I agreed but after then he told me that he likes a woman with a big breast, a woman that is fair, a woman that is tall and has straight legs and I don't have those things he mentioned.
I asked him what he was doing with me since that is what he likes, he told me that God knows the best, he claimed to be born again that he need God's conviction before he will marry me. Though he is not my kind of man in terms of looks but every time and day I spent with him I grow loving him the more, everything a woman does for her husband, I did for him, I treat him like a king he is and he appreciates it.
Two weeks today, I went to spend a night in his place, we got talking and he said he is worried about me that God has not given him conviction about both of us getting married. I asked him if the both of us should split, he said he doesn't know, I now told him let us split because I am not the kind of woman he want.
He concurred immediately, I felt cheap. It hurts me because I gave everything to the relationship and I still love him. Please tell me what to do and that night he told me that his father asked him to look for a lady from his place and marry.
When you are dating a baby boy in an old man's image, this is exactly what you get because he can't tell exactly what he want, and at the same time won't have the courage and the conviction to go for what he feels that he need.
It's painful that you felt that he was in love with you even when he openly made mockery of your personality and his own maturity as an individual.
Though 40, such a man is a disaster waiting for any lady who doesn't see beyond his facial outlooks and sweet tongue.
If he's really a born again Christian as he claimed, he won't touch your breast let alone having sex with you. Instead he will pray, get convictions, then properly get married to you before having sex with you.
I'm trying to help you understand that what you feel that you cannot do without actually doesn't have the virtues and the attributes of a responsible and focused man. He's a liability that cannot figure out his identity and seems to be confused at the moment.
You don't need to feel cheap or have low self esteem of yourself but learn from this and move on with your life.
I mean I'm wondering when a man who is still breastfeeding from his parents at 40 will start walking or stand out as an individual.
Just thank God that it didn't last beyond three months, else it would have been worse than this.
Cheer up, be strong and trust God for your own husband. I feel that you deserve better than him.
By love ambassador at 2:08:00 PM
Why do you think he is single @ 40 it's because he is immature. Although 40 but he is 15 plz wait for your man and 4get diz baby boy
kaima10 July 4, 2016 at 8:28 PM
He has already seen someone to marry and has started the process. He told you that just to prepare your mind for his exit. You were just a fling. Wise up and move on.

The rise of the unicorn, from medieval tapestries and magical horns to frappuccinos and picture books - Garry Parsons
Unicorns are well established members of the picture book bestiary, but where did they come from and how long are they staying?
The unicorn, it seems, has origins in all sorts of places, from Chinese mythology to early Christian folklore, as well as sources being found in India and Persia.
The Hindu epic, Mahabharata tells of a human bodied unicorn called "Gazelle Horn" which has to be lured from the forest by the King's beautiful daughter in order to guarantee rainfall over the kingdom.
The Chinese unicorn, Ch'i-Lin, also lives alone in the forest. It's body gives off light and it has a voice like a monastery bell. Ch'i-Lin is the very meaning of benevolence and wisdom and is so allusive that it is only seen when the kingdom is ruled virtuously.
Unicorn Cake!
Unicorns were a special fascination in the West during medieval Christian times. Still depicted with a fiery wild nature, they were also imbued with a loving spiritual benevolence. They were imagined in art as a metaphor for Christ.
This medieval unicorn, also aloof, rare and solitary, could only be coaxed from the forest by a virgin, where it willingly allowed itself to be captured. This 'capture' is interpreted as as the Spirit's willingness to be incarnated through the body of the Virgin Mary.
Virgin and Unicorn 1602 - Domenichino (1581 -1641)
So the general idea of the unicorn is that it of a wild, solitary creature, capable of great strength and speed and a creature that cannot be simply captured alive, unless by lure or trickery or it's own willing desire to be united as Spirit with matter. Most importantly, it has magical powers and is distinguished by a single horn in the centre of the forehead.
The Unicorn in Captivity - Tapestry 1495 - 1505 Brussels
Pulling our search for unicorns back from the mythological a little, is Elasmotherium sibiricum, otherwise known as the Siberian unicorn. Elasmotherium went extinct an estimated 39,000 years ago. Related to the five surviving species of rhino we know today, only twice as big (weighing 3.5 tonnes and standing 2.5 metres high) in Elasmotherium's day, there were as many as 250 different species of this ancient rhino.
Elasmotherium sibiricum
What's fascinating about this animal is that it went into extinction around the same time that Neanderthals went extinct, meaning that they would have been sharing Eurasia with both modern humans and Neanderthals. Clearly though, it wasn't all rainbows and sparkles for Elasmotherium, so where does our modern unicorn come from?
danaisabellaa
Throughout the medieval period and long after, the unicorn and especially the horn, was thought to hold magical powers. In the 16th and 17th Century, trade in unicorn horn powder was thought to hold the ability to detect poison or purify contaminated water as well as healing wounds and illness. The horns were not unicorn horns of course but the tusks of narwhal or elephant. Nevertheless, this trade in 'magical' horn gave the unicorn a commercial value as well as mythical and perpetuated the unicorn's reputation for being rare and elusive - a creature you would know about but never saw and would certainly never capture.
Gradually however, the belief in the unicorn horns magical abilities to heal began to be met with scepticism, as did the belief in it's actual existence, and so the enthusiasm for the mythical creature waned and the golden age of the unicorn for this period came to an end.
The Narwhal's tusk used as evidence for the existence of the unicorn
It wasn't until the rediscovery of the Lady and the Unicorn tapestries in the late 19th Century that a new spark of interest developed for the unicorn.
The Lady and the Unicorn tapestries were a series of six woven hangings, created in the style of mille-fleurs ("thousand flowers") made in Flanders from wool and silk. The tapestries are now considered one of the greatest works of the middle ages in Europe. Each of the six tapestries includes a noble lady depicted with a unicorn on her right and a lion to her left, and have been attributed as the inspiration for the French Symbolist painter, Gustave Moreau, in his canvas 'The Unicorns'.
Later still, during the 1950's, Jean Cocteau designed a ballet inspired by the tapestries, and so the unicorns presence came to the surface of popular consciousness once more.
The Lady and the Unicorn Tapestries - Musee de Cluny - Paris
The Unicorns - Gustave Moreau 1885
Racing forward to the modern era, the unicorn also made it's mark for the LGBTQ community with it's fusion of the rainbow flag (created by American artist Gilbert Baker) and becoming a joyous symbol of diversity and acceptance and appearing on T-shirts, flags and banners at pride events around the world.
Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino
Unicorns get a real boost from the popularity of 'My Little Pony' in the 90's but it's not until later that the mythical beast begins to make a real significant cultural comeback.
Fuelled by social media and the arrival of the Unicorn Frappuccino from Starbucks in 2016, unicorn fever takes off exponentially a year later with My Little Pony; The Movie, voiced by Zoe Saldana, Emily Blunt and Kristin Chenoweth, becoming a huge hit at the cinema box office and propelling all sorts of unicorn merchandise into the mainstream market.
My Little Pony - The Movie
Instagram feeds become flooded with the new, vibrant, glitter effused, pastel coloured sparkling unicorn colours that we are familiar with today - a magical universe away from our worn out friend from the past, Elasmotherium.
Vibrantandpure
From unicorn toast and unicorn beauty products (complete with with make-up tutorials on youtube) to unicorn inflatables, unicorn cakes, unicorn eyelashes, unicorn nails, unicorn slippers, unicorn onesies and of course...unicorn picture books!
A selection of unicorn picture books from Dad Suggests
So regardless where the latest unicorn fever has come from, it is certainly alive in our minds and galloping wild through our imaginations. The latest golden age of the unicorn is well and truly underway and looks like it is here to stay... for a while at least.
So celebrate National Unicorn Day on 9th April with a sprinkle of glitter and a slice of unicorn cake!

Cast : Ian McKellen, Milo Parker, Laura Linney	Screenplay : Jeffrey Hatcher	Release : June 19, 2015	Director : Bill Condon	Genre : Drama, Mystery	Country : UK | USA	Stream Now	Rob's Rating : Tim's Rating : Bang for your Buck :
Mr. Holmes (2015)
Posted by Tim Brayton Posted on Jan - 5 - 2016 15 Comments
A review in brief
There are certain casting choices that are so ineffably perfect that it's impossible for the reality to match up to the fantasy one concocts upon learning of them. "Ian McKellen as a geriatric Sherlock Holmes in 1947" is, for me, one such bit of casting, and sure enough, Mr. Holmes (for that is the movie in which that marriage of actor and character takes place) turns out to be far less exciting in practice than in theory. This is at least in part because it's not really the "old Holmes solves one last case, despite being a long-retired country gentleman" scenario that one might hope for, but the bigger part is what replaced it: "an old man fighting hard against the loss of his memory painfully, and with only some success, reconstructs a series of not particularly interesting events that transpired decades earlier, while being somewhat annoying to the people responsible for taking care of his 93-year-old ass".
This is, if nothing else, not a tremendously difficult challenge for McKellen to meet. Sure enough, his portrayal of a cantankerous, doddering old man is flawlessly done, but also somewhat generic. This is for McKellen exactly the same kind of exercise that The Last Station was for Helen Mirren or Philomena was for Judi Dench: a slightly complicated but basically standard-issue role that doesn't require much from the British acting legend who needs to do little more than recite lines in a sufficiently prickly tone to win loving applause from the kind of audience that can be relied upon to watch these movies.
It's even less of a challenge for Laura Linney, heartbreakingly underused and damnably ineffective as the put-upon housekeeper, Mrs. Munro, irritated by Holmes's behavior while her young son Roger (Milo Parker) falls under the old man's spell. Stuck with no arc and a terrible accent, Linney is an active detriment to the film, throwing cold water on the pleasant momentum it's sometimes able to build up. It doesn't help that her character has a tendency to force the movie into its most uninteresting directions; it's the very definition of a thankless role, and Linney sinks to its level.
Still, Mr. Holmes ends up being at least a little bit charming. Bill Condon's direction (in what is, for all intents and purposes, a remake of his McKellen-starring Gods and Monsters) is lighthearted in ways that Jeffrey Hatcher's solemn adaptation of Mitch Cullin's novel isn't, particularly in the flashback segments set in the '20s - not that the film makes particularly good use of either of its time periods. Watching McKellen play-act dementia could quickly turn into a dreary exercise, but Condon is exactly the director to keep the actor focused on creating a truthful character without it becoming a grim agony. It's the perfect movie to watch on cable with your dad with only minor regret; worse fates have befallen Sherlock Holmes, though I'd much rather watch the campy '40s-style Holmes picture that puts in a cameo appearance.

"Streeteasy. We had a small set of criteria: East Village only, under $3,000 (2,278.05), true 1-bedroom. I was refreshing it every half-hour, and we got super lucky because the second I saw the ad I was so close, I ran right over. There was an hour window between it being posted and me running over."
"The first thing that drew me to this apartment was how much light it had in the pictures. That was one of my biggest criteria that I need to have a lot of windows. I can't live in one of those New York City apartments that's in the corner facing the back. It's really big and the price is great but when I went to meet the landlord, because it's a rent-stabiliaed building there were no in-between people and I just really hit it off with her. She's an amazing person. Like we basically hung out for the entire hour talking about art while I waited for Ryan to come and see the apartment. And I think she kind of saw me as her daughter or something because her daughter actually lives below us and is about the same age. So I think it's the first real estate experience in New York where I didn't feel like I was getting scammed or ripped off or being treated in the typical way that you would be treated while renting an apartment in New York. "
"For furniture, I used Facebook Marketplace a lot and for home decor, I try to go to vintage shops. One of my favourite ones is called City Opera and it's sort of in Flatiron more on the east side. They have unique pieces for relatively cheap prices because everything is donated there. And definitely when we travel we try to get a lot, but I don't seek out pieces. I might see something as I'm walking and buy it."

By Suzie Alway on 14/02/2018 in Antarctica, Borneo, California, Chile, Namibia, Safari, Sri Lanka, Travel, Wildlife holidays
Rather than filling your head with an endless list of exotic places where you could enjoy a candlelit dinner for two, this Valentine's Day we've decided to look to the animal kingdom for signs of true love in the wild. We've picked out a few of the romantic rituals and cute courtships carried out by creatures around the world…
At Imagine Travel we love wildlife. If there's an animal you want to see in the wild, give us a call on 020 3797 2425 and chat to one of our specialists. We'll work our magic to give you the best chance of spotting your favourite creature in its natural habitat.
Emperor penguins breed during Antarctica's long, harsh winter and rely on one another immensely. As soon as the female lays the egg, she leaves it in the care of her loyal mate, while she embarks on a two-month journey in search of food for the family. The male keeps the egg warm, balancing it on his feet under a feathery layer of skin, until it is ready to hatch. During this time he eats almost nothing, saving his last bits of stored food for his newly hatched chick and waiting patiently for the return of his mate, who will bring fresh supplies.

Despite gathering in flocks that can consist of hundreds of thousands of individuals, flamingos usually remain monogamous for life. The male will woo the female with a series of courtship rituals and marches, and once he has worked his magic the female flamingo will take charge of the situation, selecting a location for their nesting site which her loving partner will then help her build. The female will then lay a single egg in the nest, and the two birds will take turns at incubating the egg and rearing the young chick once it has hatched.

Gibbons
Gibbons are an acrobatic species endemic to the thick forests of southern Asia. They are predominantly monogamous creatures, which is a real rarity in the primate world. Once a pair have mated, they stick together and form a strong family unit in which to raise their young. They use loud and distinctive calls to mark out their territory and keep other creatures away. Male and female gibbons will share parenting duties fairly evenly, and even spend time grooming one another.

We think otters are some of the most romantic creatures possible, as once they mate they become totally inseparable. They famously hold hands when they sleep to stop them from floating apart. As otters spend so much of their time in the water, they need a way to keep their loved ones close by. This tactic of floating on their backs and forming a raft with their bodies is used when they're eating too, and when they simply want to chill out and spend some quality time together.

Although not monogamous, we think there is something fairly impressive about the peacock's method of wooing a mate. The male will use his beautifully coloured tail to impress a prospective partner, fanning it out and showing it off in a special dance. It is believed that the females (known as peahens) choose their mate based on the size, colour and quality of his tail feathers, which can make up more than 60% of the male's total body length and feature hues of blue green, gold and even red.

Kirk's dik-diks
The Kirk's dik-dik is one of the smaller antelopes in the African bush. These graceful creatures believe in soul mates, and once they have found a mate they will stay together forever, rarely leaving one another's side. They will raise one offspring at a time, carefully preparing it for adulthood, because as soon as they welcome a new child into the world they will pack the older sibling off into the wild, where it is expected to fend for itself, find a mate, and repeat the process of its parents.

Thank you for some other informative blog. The place else could I get that kind of information written in such an ideal method? I have a challenge that I am simply now working on, and I've been on the glance out for such information.

Chopin Ballade No. 4 in F minor Op. 52 Piano Sheet Music Free PDF Download
Ballade No. 4 in F minor, Op. 52, was made up in 1842 in Paris and Nohant and revised in 1843. The work was committed to Baroness Rothschild, better half of Nathaniel de Rothschild, who had actually invited Chopin to play in her Parisian residence, where she introduced him to the upper class and nobility. Inning Accordance With Robert Schumann, this Ballade was inspired by Adam Mickiewicz's poem The 3 Budrys, which informs of 3 bros sent away by their daddy to look for treasures, and the story of their return with 3 Polish bride-to-bes.
An expression in the dominant major (marked piano) opens the seven introductory steps and leads into the very first subject of sonata-form exposition, a melody with Slavonic pigmentation. The very first theme goes through four cumulative changes with decors, counter-melodies, counterpoint, and a nocturne-like fioritura. The development of the second style and its linking with the first increases the complexity of the musical structure and develops tension. Through the intertwining and thus the simultaneous advancement of the two styles, Chopin successfully integrates using both the sonata form and the variation kind. The body of the piece concludes with a series of accented fortissimo chords, followed by a momentary calm of five pianissimo chords. This then unexpectedly leads into an incredibly quick, rough coda, written in exuberant counterpoint. Structurally Ballade No. 4 is distinctly complex.

A distinguishing feature of the fourth Ballade is its contrapuntal nature. Counterpoint is found only sporadically in Ballades Nos. 1 and 2. The 4th Ballade is musically more subtle than the other three, as most of its portions stay melancholic and extensive. Although there are some significant outbursts in the central sections of the music, the coda reveals its greatest momentum.
Of the four Ballades, it is thought about by many pianists to be the most hard, both technically and musically.
Inning Accordance With John Ogdon," it is the most exalted, extreme and sublimely effective of all Chopin's compositions … It boggles the mind that it lasts only twelve minutes, for it contains the experience of a lifetime."

The Bulldogs took the lead for good on special teams. Bacon County recovered a TCHS fumble at the Raider 15 and the visitors went backwards and had to punt on fourth down and 20 at the Bacon five-yard line. Caleb Hartley broke through and cleanly blocked the punt and the ball bounced out of the end zone for a safety giving Toombs a 9-7 lead with 10:30 remaining in the first quarter.
After the free kick and a 17-yard return by Ashlee Ashley, Toombs County started at the Raider 38 and it took five plays for the Dawgs to score. Cloud and Lynn teamed up on a 22-yard first down reception. The pass was intended for Graham and was deflected, Chandler caught the ball while on his back on the ground. D.J. Mincey finished the drive with a 19-yard TD run. D.J. darted to the outside and he broke a tackle inside the five-yard line. The Perez extra point made it 16-7 Bulldogs with 8:30 to play in the second quarter.
The Bulldogs scored their third touchdown on a one-play drive- a 51-yard touchdown pass from Cloud to Lynn. Chandler caught a slant in pass at the Bacon 45 and he veered toward the Raider sideline and ran the ball into the south end zone. Perez missed his first extra point of the season after making 16 straight. The Raiders blocked the kick giving Toombs a 22-7 lead with 6:30 to play in the half.
A defensive touchdown ended the first half scoring. Mincey picked a Brown pass and returned it 54-yards for the touchdown. D.J. ran the ball down the right hash until he got to the Bacon 27 and there he cut across the field scoring his first Pick-6 in the left corner of the south end zone. Perez bounced back and drilled the extra point to increase the Bulldog lead to 29-7 with 4:50 left in the half.
Toombs County almost scored a fifth first half touchdown in the waning moments of the half. Cloud hit Lynn with a 30-yard pass that would have been good for six, but the Dawgs were penalized for having an illegal man down field. Prior to that play the Bulldogs also dropped a ball in the end zone on a Cloud roll out throw.
The Bulldog defense opened up the second half stopping Bacon on three plays and after a 35-yard Raider punt and a seven-yard return by Lynn Toombs started at it's 47. This time it took the Bulldogs two running plays to score. Mincey picked up 13-yards and a first down and then the sophomore took another handoff from Cloud and D.J. raced 40-yards for a TD. Once again Mincey started his trip to the south end zone by going up the middle and when he arrived at the Bacon 30-yard line he saw a lot of green down the Bulldog sideline so he headed that way and once he reached the 20 he was gone for good. Perez missed the PAT and TCHS had a 35-7 lead with 9:36 to go in the third quarter.
Bacon County blocked a Toombs County punt and ran it into the end zone with 5:17 to play in the third quarter to cut the Bulldog lead to 35-14.
Toombs County scored it's final touchdown of the night with 1:15 left on the third quarter clock. The Bulldogs picked up three first downs on a seven-yard run by MIncey, a catch by Lynn and a 45-yard snag by senior Raekwon Powell. Demetrius Owens finished the eight-play drive with a two-yard touchdown run. He ran through a whopper of a hole created by Josh Jackson and Chase Miller. Perez nailed the extra point and Toombs County took a 42-14 lead into the fourth quarter.
Bacon County scored a fourth quarter TD against the Bulldog junior varsity on a touchdown pass with 3:55 to play in the game.


Microsoft should have just not released Windows Vista rather than making us bear the pain of trying to use a crappy operating system. Or at least very annoying. Problems I never had in Windows XP now show up all over Vista.
Why do I need permission when I already agreed to it when the other annoying UAC dialog popped up and asked me about it! Strange thing is that even if you are an Administrator, there are certain tasks or actions that Windows locks down.
The best part is that you do not get this error on any kind of consistent basis, it can pop up when you are trying to delete a folder, trying to copy some files, trying to install a program, etc, etc. It all comes down to not having the right security permissions.
Note that UAC (User Account Control) does not usually affect this problem, so don't go out and automatically disable UAC. If you disable UAC, you can't do things like share printers, etc., so it's best to live with it.
There are some things you can do, however, to help out with the "You do not have permission to perform this action" problem though. If it's a particular file or folder you are trying to delete, you can simply give yourself full control permissions over the file.
But before we go into that, try one other method that might be a bit faster. Go to Start, Programs, Accessories, and right-click on the command prompt and choose Run as Administrator.
Press Enter and restart your computer. Now try to perform the task again that gave you the "You do not have permission" error. If that does not work, then follow the steps below to change the file permissions.
To change the security permissions for a file, right-click on the file and go to Properties. Then click on the Security tab.
Now click on the Advanced button at the bottom and click on the Owner tab.
Click on the Edit button, click Other users and groups and type in your user account name and click Check Names.
Click OK and on the Owner tab make sure to check the "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects" box. Now select your user account from the list on the Security tab and click Edit. Click Allow next to Full Control and click OK.
Hopefully, this fixes one very annoying problems with Windows Vista. I did notice that upgrading to SP1 helped to reduce the occurrence of this error, so if you do not have SP1 installed yet, make sure to go to Windows Update. Enjoy!

GLWA board approves changes to water affordability and conservation program
By mmkelley on November 25, 2020 No Comment
The Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) Board of Directors recently approved an exception to its Water Residential Assistance Program (WRAP) that will assist participants financially impacted by COVID-19.
This change allows those enrolled in WRAP who are unable to make monthly payments on time due to issues related to COVID-19 to remain in the program and maintain eligibility to continue receiving monthly bill credits and arrearage payments through Dec. 31 of this year.
The Board also recently approved changing the eligibility for households from 150 percent to 200 percent of the federal poverty level, and increased conservation and plumbing repair spending per eligible household from $1,000 to an average of $1,500 (with a cap of $2,000) per customer. In addition, for the first time since the program's inception, eligible rental households are now able to take advantage of conservation and plumbing repairs offered through WRAP to help reduce their water consumption, if the landlord agrees not to increase rent for 12 months.
"This expansion of WRAP will help us reach many more households in Detroit and the participating member communities who may be struggling to pay their water bills during the COVID-19 pandemic, and beyond," said GLWA board member Gary Brown. "For example, now that households with incomes up to 200 percent of the federal poverty level are eligible, a family of four with up to $52,400 in combined income qualifies to participate. Prior to expansion, the maximum household income for a family of four was $36,450. This vote also expands what I believe is the most significant WRAP benefit — more dollars for minor home plumbing repairs to help homeowners, and now renters, get to an average monthly bill." — M.K.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- University of Florida paleontologists have discovered remarkably well-preserved fossils of two crocodilians and a mammal previously unknown to science during recent Panama Canal excavations that began in 2009.
The two new ancient extinct alligator-like animals and an extinct hippo-like species inhabited Central America during the Miocene about 20 million years ago. The research expands the range of ancient animals in the subtropics -- some of the most diverse areas today about which little is known historically because lush vegetation prevents paleontological excavations -- and may be used to better understand how climate change affects species dispersal today. The two studies appear online today in the same issue of the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology.
The fossils shed new light on scientists' understanding of species distribution because they represent a time before the formation of the Isthmus of Panama, when the continents of North and South America were separated by oceanic waters.
"In part we are trying to understand how ecosystems have responded to animals moving long distances and across geographic barriers in the past," said study co-author Jonathan Bloch, associate curator of vertebrate paleontology at the Florida Museum of Natural History on the UF campus. "It's a testing ground for things like invasive species - if you have things that migrated from one place into another in the past, then potentially you have the ability to look at what impact a new species might have on an ecosystem in the future."
"We're very fortunate we could get the funding for PIRE to take advantage of this opportunity -- we're getting to sample these areas that are completely unsampled," said Alex Hastings, lead author of the crocodilian study and a visiting instructor at Georgia Southern University who conducted the research for the project as a UF graduate student.
"You mix an alligator and one of the more primitive caimans and you end up with this caiman that has a much flatter snout, making it more like an alligator," Hastings said. "Before this, there were no fossil crocodilian skulls known from Central America."
Christopher Brochu, an assistant professor of vertebrate paleontology in the department of geoscience at the University of Iowa, said "the caiman fossil record is tantalizing," and the new data shows there is still a long way to go before researchers understand the group.
"The fossils that are in this paper are from a later time period, but some of them appear to be earlier-branching groups, which could be very important," said Brochu, who was not involved with the study. "The problem is, because we know so little about early caiman history, it's very difficult to tell where these later forms actually go on the family tree."
The new mammal species researchers described is an anthracothere, Arretotherium meridionale, an even-toed hooved mammal previously thought to be related to living hippos and intensively studied on the basis of its hypothetical relationship with whales. About the size of a cow, the mammal would have lived in a semi-aquatic environment in Central America, said lead author and UF graduate student Aldo Rincon.
"With the evolution of new terrestrial corridors like this peninsula connecting North America with Central America, this is one of the most amazing examples of the different kind of paths land animals can take," Rincon said. "Somehow this anthracothere is similar to anthracotheres from other continents like northern Africa and northeastern Asia."
Researchers also name a second crocodilian species, Centenariosuchus gilmorei, after Charles Gilmore, who first reported evidence of crocodilian fossils collected during construction of the canal 100 years ago. The genus is named in honor of the canal's centennial in 2014.
Researchers will continue excavating deposits from the Panama Canal during construction to widen and straighten the channel and build new locks. The project is funded by a $3.8 million NSF grant to develop partnerships between the U.S. and Panama and engage the next generation of scientists in paleontological and geological discoveries along the canal.
Study co-authors include Bruce MacFadden of UF and Carlos Jaramillo of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute.


Rural broadband provider Gigaclear has announced intentions to connect 200,000 customers to its all-fibre network.
The company, which specialises in building local FTTP (Fibre to the Premises) networks capable of delivering gigabit (1,000Mbps) speeds, is hoping to raise £180 million on the AIM (Alternative Investment Market) stock exchange.
Gigaclear already operates nine small networks around the UK including Rutland Telecom and Ultrafast Underriver but it wants to take it to the next level.
Gigaclear has already had to pull out of a previously-greenlit project when it emerged that BT was going to roll out superfast broadband to the Dun Valley and the Tytherlys under the the Superfast South Gloucestershire and Wiltshire scheme.
Over 400 communities have expressed an interesting in Gigaclear coming to their necck of the woods. Now the fibre provider wants to raise more cash before the UK's biggest ISP can steal a march.
While BDUK (Broadband Delivery for the UK) projects like Superfast South Gloucestershire and Wiltshire will see the majority of places connected to superfast broadband, those in the margins stand to make do with a basic service guaranteeing download speeds of at least 2Mbps.
Gigaclear's business model is based on stepping up to fill the gaps, bringing ultrafast broadband to areas that otherwise wouldn't get such a service.
While the BDUK projects will deliver a step change in rural areas, most locations will get FTTC (Fibre to the Cabinet) which provides top download speeds of 80Mbps. The distance between your cabinet and your house will also affect the speeds you actually get, as it the case with ADSL connections and the distance from your local exchange.
All of Gigaclear's connections by contrast are FTTP lines which can more or less guarantee the speeds as advertised.
The company's tariffs range from £37/month for an entry-level service that gives you 50Mbps download and upload speeds. Prices for this starter service compare favourably with most rival's superfast packages.
Seriously heavy users and small businesses who want 1Gbps download and uploads will need to fork out £75/month – not much more expensive than BT's nearest equivalent service, which provides downloads of 300Mbps and uploads of 30Mbps.
