Q: Setting Form bounds exactly when shadow is displayed I'm stuck trying to display a form matching a certain rectangle if the form has the slight shadow effect of windows 10 - instead of the form itself, setting the Bounds seems to set the size including the shadow so the form is smaller than the rectangle:

What I tried:

*

*setting DWMNCRP_DISABLED when I set the Form bounds and turning that back afterwards

*switching off the CS_DROPSHADOW flag (for good measure, shouldn't apply here)

*setting ClientSize after setting the bounds - not good as that means it will be offset from the right corner pos, and I'm not sure how to get the size of the shadow

Only windows 7 throught to windows 10 support is needed.

One of the problems of lack of control of the quality of the video on Netflix is that you do not know what resolution is watching. Then you wait a few seconds for the video to get a good quality and … should already be in 1080p, right? No. In fact, not all browsers support Full HD on Netflix. And it's likely that your not support.
On this page, Netflix details what are the browsers that support the service and what is the maximum resolution that they run the video. If you use Chrome, Firefox or Opera, fuen: your favorite series are being viewed in 720p resolution and a maximum bit rate of 4420 kb / s.
In the case of Safari (OS X 10.10.3 or higher), Internet Explorer (!) And Microsoft Edge, the maximum resolution reaches 1080p, with the latter running at 7,500 kb / s. These three browsers account for only 14% of the audience Our site.
This information came to light by a blog post from Microsoft and confirmed by PCWorld. From the secret menu of Netflix, which allows the user to set the video quality and statistics (Control + Alt + Shift + D), you can see the resolution at which the video is running. In tests, the screen showed the 1080p resolution for Edge, while Chrome only came to 720p.
Now a curiosity: remember that battery test that Microsoft has made between the four major browsers, showing that Edge can increase your life by up to 70%? So. According to Microsoft, because the Edge has run video at 1080p in the tests, it can deliver a high quality content while they spend less battery. Palmas to Microsoft.
If you do not want to even change the browser, there is still hope: you can download the application Netflix for Windows 10, which also displays content in full HD.

Christ Jesus desires truly to redeem our human nature. To do so, He takes it upon Himself to be tempted as we are tempted. How does He do this? He goes off into the wilderness. The wilderness or desert is a place that most men think ought to be free of all real temptation. Jesus shows us that it is precisely in the wilderness that man is tempted by Satan on all levels.
Second, Jesus is tempted to pursue the good of His soul at the expense of His body. This is the temptation to anger and sloth. The angry man throws himself down in frustration and exasperation because he is not sooner rewarded for his obedience to God and for the holiness of his life. Throw yourself down, the Devil exclaims. If your body is of secondary importance to the good of your soul, throw your body away, down, disregard it, and abuse it. For if you are the Son of God, you don't much need it anyway! Here Christ is tempted, as before, to sever a particular faculty of human nature from the just and good operation of the whole man. There he surrendered the body to the soul. Here he will care for the body through the soul. Both are essential if the whole of human nature is to be redeemed. The Second temptation ought to be a warning against thinking that what we do with our bodies is of no consequence. The whole of man is a gift from God. The body and the soul must work together in unison to obey God and to keep His commandments. The body is the soul's workshop. In it, man learns to embrace and perfect God's goodness. In the body lies hidden and concealed all manner of goodness that the soul can generate. Here is where sloth comes in. The slothful man disregards his body in another way. He throws his body down in failing to care for it, nourish it moderately, keep all toxins and poisons from it. The slothful man is too spiritually lazy to love his body in the right way. Having embraced anger to no avail, he sinks into a slothful insouciance. But Jesus teaches us that, first, the soul must bring principles to bear upon the body's appetites. Next, the soul is to use the body as a vehicle through which to share God's goodness with others. In both cases, the soul is to honor, respect, and perfect the body because it is a gift from God.
Third, Jesus is tempted to deny the good of His body and soul and to embrace spiritual independence from God the Father. This is the temptation of pride and envy. Pride feels that it ought to be what it is not. Thus through envy, it begrudges God who and what He is. Not content to worship God for His goodness, the proud and envious man is determined not only to have what God has but to be God. This is the temptation to be as God is without God. Jesus is tempted to sever His Divine Nature as God's eternal Word from God Himself. Here He is promised all the Kingdoms of the world if only He will fall down and worship Satan –the principle of disobedience, division, and isolation from God. This is the hardest temptation of all since it means the full and complete determination to be as God. And while Christ is indeed God's Eternal Word made flesh, the resultant creature must be related to God appropriately as a human being. And thus while Christ may be tempted to resort to the Divine Nature in order to conquer, rule, and govern others, this is a prerogative that is suitable to Heaven alone. What we mean here is that if Christ is to fully redeem human nature, He must find the unity between His two Natures –as God and Man, through reason and the will. This means that the Divine Nature, as always present to Him within His one Person, must be freely chosen or willed in response to human reason's vision and knowledge of it. Thus Christ chooses not to sever Himself from God's Word, fully conscious that the Word is absolutely derivative from the Father. So as one Person, His human nature chooses to submit to the Divine Nature, which Nature is always what comes from the Father and is generated to return to Him. Thus any independence of man from God in Jesus Christ is rejected completely. The Person of the Son is thus established as Son of God.
Summary: From Christ's temptations we learn the truth about our way back to God. Our way back to God is Christ Himself. In and through Him, we are invited to fight temptation and to supplicate the merciful presence of the Holy Spirit to assist us in this endeavor. Through Christ, we also learn that temptation will be common to our human predicament. Temptations are not evil in themselves. They can be useful in our pursuit of God's goodness. They challenge us to rely, with Jesus, absolutely and completely on God's power to generate virtue in our lives. Want and poverty might tempt us to unbelief. We think that if the Son of God is true to the Father, He ought to eradicate world hunger and poverty. Surely, if the Son of God is true to the Father, we and all others ought not to suffer from any want. We forget that if we trusted in God, He would care for us. So we are tempted to turn stones into bread when we ought rather ingest the Word of God with Jesus. The body's good will be looked after by God if our souls are right with Him. Next, we are tempted to throw caution to the wind as Satan brings our imaginations up to the pinnacles of spiritual importance. We have submitted our bodies to the good of the soul. Now we are rewarded for our devotion. And while we are being elevated, it seems permissible to throw down our bodies. Surely God will rescue us for our devotion. And, besides this, the devil hates the good angels. Good angels do come and minister to devout men. They are sent by God to help the faithful. Satan cannot bear it. So he attempts to provoke us to prove their power as guardians and helpers. This we must resist. The good of the soul is not found in tempting God or his good angels. The good of the soul is found in the body which must suffer not only its own temptations but those of others. For man, the good of the soul is found in the body. Finally, we are tempted to sever ourselves –body and soul, from God completely. This is the diabolical sin. This is the temptation to decide for ourselves what is right and what is wrong, when something is right and when it is wrong, how it is right and how it is wrong, where it is right and where it is wrong, and why it is right and why it is wrong. The problem is not with the questions. The problem is that we try to find the answers without the rule and governance of God's Absolute Goodness. It is at best sophistry. It is at worst demonic. Let us with Jesus, through body, soul, and spirit submit our lives to our Heavenly Father, to His rule and governance, and all good things shall be added unto us.

Michigan leads nation in PFAS. It will lead cleanups, too, U.S. reps say
Joel Kurth (Email)
Michigan PFAS chemical threats
MACKINAC ISLAND – A report this month found Michigan leads the nation in sites contaminated with toxic chemicals known as PFAS, and the state's bipartisan delegation in Congress has introduced a flurry of legislation to increase testing.
Among the federal bills: one to provide the U.S. Geological Survey with $45 million to develop new standards to detect PFAS, and another would test for at least 30 strains of the chemicals.
PFAS, shorthand for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, was used for decades in non-stick and water-resistant household products like Teflon and firefighting foam. The Environmental Working Group, a Washington D.C. nonprofit advocacy group, this month released a report showing that Michigan has 192 PFAS sites, roughly a third of the 610 locations identified nationwide in 43 states.
"In order to move on this issue, we have come together," U.S. Sen. Gary Peters, a Democrat, said ata media briefing Wednesday on the porch of the Grand Hotel at the Detroit Regional Chamber Mackinac Policy Conference.
He was among congressional members who pledged to fight PFAS and the spread of Asian carp in the Great Lakes. Some members of the delegation plan a fact-finding trip to Illinois on July 1 to learn about efforts to keep Asian carp from entering the lakes from the Illinois River. A non-native fish, the carp are "voracious and often outcompete native fish for food and habitat," according to a report from the Great Lakes Sea Grant Network.
"The safety and security of our water is vital to the safety and security of everything we do here [in Michigan]," said Rep. Jack Bergman, R-Watersmeet.
Bergman and Peters were joined by Democratic U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow; Rep. Fred Upton, R-St. Joseph, and Democratic Reps. Debbie Dingell of Dearborn, Brenda Lawrence of Southfield, Andy Levin of Bloomfield Township, Haley Stevens of Rochester Hills and Elissa Slotkin of Holly.
They announced legislation to require the EPA to set a standard to determine how much PFAS is dangerous.
The agency has set a lifetime health advisory for PFOA and PFOS at 70 parts per trillion, but federal research recently made public suggests exposure could be harmful at much lower levels.
The advisory, however, is nonbinding. At some Michigan sites, officials have detected PFAS levels below the threshold, while higher levels at sites such as the closed Wurtsmith Air Force Base in Iosco County have prompted warnings not to drink groundwater of eat deer or fish killed in the area.
"The folks in Oscoda have waited too long for a national standard," Peters said. "The EPA is moving on this too slowly. This is an issue that needs to be dealt with swiftness."
Slotkin, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, told Bridge Magazine that Congress may soon allocate money for PFAS cleanups in Michigan including Wurtsmith.
"The military has a responsibility and we are about to literally next week mark up the 1,000-page Pentagon budget and you will see quite a bit about PFAS," said Slotkin, who sponsored the legislation to require PFAS testing at municipal water systems.
She said Michigan has the most identified PFAS sites in the nation because "we are testing" and "ahead of the game."
"Michigan will be the place where we come up with innovative cleanup solutions because we don't have a ton now," Slotkin said.

Aristotle is attributed with the expression "Excellence is an art won by training and habituation." This is demonstrated every week in the sporting community. The best athletes in the world will tell you that they are always training in order to stay in top form.
Check the resources made available by your company. Many companies offer training courses to assist in employee development. Often, these courses are overlooked or even unknown.
Outside resources may also be available through the company. Check with the HR department to understand the available options for tuition reimbursement.
Express your interests to your management. Based on their experience, they may be able to recommend specific courses that can directly benefit you in achieving your goals.
Once you have a clear understanding of what is available to you, design a personal training plan that will take advantage of those resources and execute on that plan to enhance your skill-set.
Topics such as these have provided benefits to all of the various roles I have taken in my career as a manager and as an individual contributor. Before I could register for any courses, my management always wanted me to make sure there was enough room in the budget to cover the costs.
It should be noted, however, that most managers are focused on achieving quarterly goals and milestones. It is very possible that employee development may not be at the top of their priority list. In my own experience, while I knew my management continued to support me, I found that I needed to be willing to take the initiative in my own training. Thus, it is important that each individual proactively pursue their own personal development.
Be proactive in pursuing the development of your skills. Create a plan, review the resources available to fulfill that plan and execute on it to manage your personal development.

Contributors are responsible for obtaining permission from copyright owners if they use an illustration, table, or lengthy quote (100+ words) that has been published elsewhere.
OJPH uses a blind review process. Reviewers will be given a template to fill out for each paper and will be asked to submit reviews within 3 weeks. Reviewers will provide a recommendation to the editor; however, it will be up to the editor to make the final decision to reject, revise and resubmit, or accept based on the reviews received. If authors have the option to revise and resubmit, the revision will be due 2 weeks after the decision is received.
Reviewers will be asked to comply with the competing interests disclosure policy specified below.
For Editors, Articles Editors, and Peer Reviewers: Editorial personnel avoid all financial relationships, personal, political, or intellectual entanglements, that might constitute a conflict of interest or that could be construed as establishing a particular bias that might influence one's judgments.
Scientific publishing is a highly competitive enterprise. The number of manuscripts rejected far exceeds the number accepted at most journals. Requiring editors to remain conflict-of-interest free assures rejected authors that bias or potential bias did not enter into the editorial decision to reject their manuscript. Similarly, readers have the right to know that the choice of articles, choice of reviewers, and choice of editorial or commentary writers was made by senior editorial managers whose judgment was not influenced by financial conflicts of interest or ideological bias.
Enforcement: Conflict of interest disclosure relies on the honor system. Editors do not have the time, resources or inclination to serve as financial auditors or ideological arbiters. Successful disclosure policies depend on the good will and integrity of editors, authors, and peer reviewers.
Most cases of a failure to disclose relevant conflicts of interest arise because someone brings it to the attention of the editors. In such cases, editors should investigate the allegation. If true, editors should determine the cause of the failure to disclose a relevant conflict. The editors may wish to consult their editorial board.
In all cases of failure to disclose a relevant conflict of interest, editors will publish an editor's note that becomes part of the permanent record of that article. In those rare cases where editors uncover a willful desire to hide financial conflicts of interest, the editors will consider appropriate penalties, such as refusing to allow that author to publish in the journal for a specified period of time.

MAIHA 2019: A Race To The State House Of Assembly Haruna Dodo Picks ADC Ticket By Haruna Yusuf
The recent news reports about Maiha local government area of Adamawa state, were on the legitimacy of the monarchy in Jalingo-Maiha District: how the stool was robbed and how it was restored to the legitimate heir: how the imposter claimed to have the backing of the state governor engaged in romance with the contempt of court attempted to instigate violence for anarchy: how the imposter was subdued by the relevant security operatives and eventually, how the judiciary would interpret the silent action of the governor against the court order to approve the appointment of the legitimate heir.
Maiha was said to be in search of peace, legitimate leadership and adequate representation against injustice with impunity.
Now is about political permutations in Maiha, where two candidates have indicated interest of being elected into the state house of assembly, could go for ADC primaries.
Alh. Tijjani Maksha the party's marksman in Maiha who initially told the electorates that he would not contest and Alh. Haruna Muhammad Dodo who nurtured the support of the teeming youths that would not tolerate hypocrisy.
ADC was commended for adhering to the "not too young to rule philosophy in Adamawa state. Little wonder the encouragement of the capable young men with intellect and strength to be at the vanguard, serving as the voice of the exploited, oppressed and misrepresented voiceless.
Typical of the proverbial payback time, the youths, among the teeming electorates in Maiha local government area of Adamawa state, invited Alh. Haruna Muhammad Dodo to represent the LGA as a legislature with the state house of assembly.
The electorates were reported to have raised money for the ADC nomination form to be able to convince the young Dodo into joining politics because they have tested and trusted the capacity and capability in him
The not too young to rule Dodo, was a cashier with the Maiha local government authority before transferring his service as a lecturer with the Adamawa state polytechnic having been equipped with postgraduate knowledge and character.
Haruna Dodo, the youths in Maiha have revealed, sponsored so many indigent indigenes of Maiha for secondary education and diploma programmes.
The impact of Dodo family, commended for humanitarian services, was said to be additional advantage to the young Dodo.
Haruna Dodo, having collected the expression of interest and the nomination form, told the newsmen that the misrepresentation was what irked the electorates to lure him to the daunting task.
Young Dodo said that his connections, both within and outside the country in addition to his experiences in public service, which was not by accident, would be of great benefit.
"Grassroots need fictional education, effective and efficient healthcare system among other essential amenities.
"Maiha is like left abandoned. The electorates are asking whether they have representatives at all and where they are, should there be any.
"This is the riddle that the electorates want me to work on and Insha Allah, if given the opportunity, Maiha will not be disappointed," the not too young to rule Dodo said.
It would appear that the issue of SAK would not be accommodated in the community having a unified votes because the byproducts of SAK have humiliated the party that brought them and would still want to ride on the party to win.
Ambassador Adamu Muhammad Dodo an authority in investigative journalism reported to the Periscope Global Investigate that
"Maiha LGA devastated by misrepresentation, destroying the bridge leading to peaceful coexistence; a metaphorical neglect of bridge linking towns, villages and districts with other LGAs
It was not easy, especially during rainy season, for newsmen on investigative mission to Maiha local government area of Adamawa state, Nigeria.
The roads were summarily tough and rough. The area seemed to be left abandoned. The voiceless were disappointed by the would be representational voices.
It was time for declaration soliciting for yet another ruinous tenure, another neglect, another damnation, or so the sage would be pleased to be heard explaining when he would be insisting to be allowed to ask the individual roles of the would be seekers of mandate for 2019 election in resolving conflict surrounding the monarchy in Maiha.
Some youth group guided by a seeming radical ringleader would round up a somewhat dramatic show of shame; demeaning fame, lamenting that it was either a lawmaker who could not even in chorus, join in chanting "nay" or "I" for either of the opinions to be pronounced as "having it", either based on "majority have it" or at the discretion of he who finalised the decision on passing, to have thought of initiating a bill favourable to his constituency, such as road rehabilitation even the like in Mubi, a functional hospital with adequate manpower and machine and qualitqualitative education in addition to other skills acquisition and empowerment programmes.
Or the representatives who knew abroad, Abuja and only Yola better than where they were mandated to represent. Those who would rather pretentiously, think back by calling back home when they would want to launch a come back; another mandate, kitted in the gown of lies, deceit and incapability they were to admit as not in anyway amounting to weak and wickedness.
Or those around the accounting officer of the state, having a portfolio but lacking the initiatives, the skills and spirit of and in uplifting their constituency over and above self.
"When and where you see the retrogressive elements unite for a common goal, is when the overambitious want to have their constituency degenerate into anarchy occasioned by somewhat superimposed dissension aimed at divide and rule, typical of the crisis associated with the monarchy in Maiha, when they ought to have concentrated in cementing relationship, building bridges for mutual coexistence and harmonious relationship as much as when they ought to have taken seriously, the measures in addressing the issue of collapse bridge, the tough and rough roads" The seeming radical ringleader would remark.
Maiha bridge; the bridge linking Mayo Nguli to Mbilla, Belel and Sorau districts of Maiha LGA and Jabbi-Lamba in Girei LGA is almost about to collapse. The voiceless are looking for a voice that could be heard when this issue is presented.
"Is the Adamawa state governor not from Maiha local government area? You only need to call to his attention, when those who ought to have, who could but couldn't." A newsman turned analyst would advance an advice.
excerpt from Ambassador Dodo.
Hajiya Hapsatu Dahiru would corroborate that "there are three bridges in this condition, Lokuwa in Mubi, Buladega and this one in Mayo Nguli and if not mistaken the bridges were build by the same company. Adamawa has become Over Seas territory of Nigeria due to bad roads as if there are no representatives from here."
It was the kind maze that the young Dodo would salvage Maiha from

Miami On Star Watch As Will Smith, Martin Lawrence Film 'Bad Boys 3'
By Lisa Petrillo April 3, 2019 at 6:12 pm
Filed Under:Bad Boys 3, Lisa Petrillo, Local TV, Miami News
MIAMI (CBSMiami) — Miami is on star watch as 'Bad Boys 3' begins filming across the Magic City.
Actor Will Smith on the set of Bad Boys 3 filming in Miami on April 3, 2019 (CBS4)
CBS4 cameras captured one of the stars of the film, Will Smith, on the set outside the Broadmoor Hotel on 7450 Ocean Terrace Wednesday morning.
The filming will continue at the Broadmoor Hotel through Friday April 6, according to film permits filed with the City of Miami Beach.
The scenes being shot there include "interior and exterior fight scenes with simulated gunfire and other special effects." There is also a permit through April 6 for Collins Avenue between 41st and 87th Streets.
WEB EXTRA: Will Smith On Set Of 'Bad Boys 3' In Miami Beach
On Friday April 5 and Monday April 8, the crew is set to film at Jose Marti Park at 351 SW Fourth Street in Little Havana between 3am and midnight each day. There will be filming in the gym, the pool area and the dance room.
The City of Miami permit states the scenes will include "simulated gunfire and gunshot wounds."
Several streets around the park will shut down Thursday as well as on Sunday and Monday.
The closures are SW 5th Street between SW 4th and 3rd Avenues and SW 3rd Avenue between SW 6th and 5th Streets, Friday through Monday. The park and surrounding streets will be open Saturday, the off day for cast and crew.
The following weekend, the filming will cause some traffic headaches for anyone driving to or from Miami Beach as the westbound lanes of the MacArthur Causeway shut down on April 14 between 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. There will also be intermittent closures on the eastbound lanes. Motorists are being asked to use the Venetian Causeway or the Julia Tuttle Causeway to get between the mainland and Miami Beach during this time.
This is the second time the filming of a 'Bad Boys' movie has shut down the MacArthur Causeway. It happened during the filming of 'Bad Boys 2' in 2002 during a wild explosive car chase scene. It was a thriller on screen, but the headlines were all about the standstill traffic for days .

South Florida film industry folks and those at the Greater Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau are happy to see big budget films shooting again in town despite the state shutting down tax incentives a few years back.
"The fact that we have film and production returning to Miami with a big movie, we are very excited as a Convention and Visitors Bureau. There is tremendous economic impact from our understanding. In 8 days they will be spending an estimated 10 million dollars," said Rolando Aedo, Chief Marketing Officer at The GMCVB.

You should also remember the movie set is not accessible to the public, but there are still onlookers who managed to catch a glimpse of the A-list stars and they don't mind enduring some street closures and inconveniences.
"I'm not from here, I'm from Argentina, so it's a good opportunity to see something fun here. It's very exciting," said a fan named Teana.
"It's just amazing how so many people sit around for so long and nothing happens and then boom it breaks loose and a lot happens," said fan Doreen Hyman.
"Did you see Will Smith?" asked CBS4's Lisa Petrillo. "No, I Saw Martin Lawrence and I'm staking it out," she said.
"A lot of people are complaining saying they are blocking the streets. Come on. Miami should be a film hub, It's such a beautiful place. We should support the arts here and it's so wonderful here on camera," said onlooker Victor Altomare.

No debe confundirse con el sistema electrónico de atención médica Alberta Netcare.Netcare (Network Healthcare Holdings Limited) es una compañía sudafricana de atención médica. Es el mayor proveedor de atención médica privada (por delante de LIFE Healthcare, formalmente conocido como Afrox Healthcare y Mediclinic International) tanto en Sudáfrica como en el Reino Unido. Adquirió una participación de control en el Grupo General Healthcare del Reino Unido en 2006 y proporciona servicios al Servicio Nacional de Salud a través de su filial General Healthcare Group. El presidente actual es Meyer Kahn.

Historia
Netcare se estableció en 1996 y figuraba en la JSE Limited (Johannesburg Stock Exchange) el mismo año. Inicialmente se expandió al Reino Unido en 2001. En 2002 ganó el contrato The Ophthalmic Chain en Kent, Merseyside, Cumbria, Lancashire, Hampshire y Thames Valley, para llevar a cabo 44.500 extracciones de cataratas en un período de 5 años y el contrato de £ 2.5 mil millones para el Greater Manchester Surgical Center, una instalación de 48 camas en el Hospital General de Trafford para proporcionar 44.863 procedimientos electivos durante 5 años con un programa de diagnóstico valorado en £ 1 mil millones. En 2004, firmó un contrato para llevar a cabo 41,600 operaciones de cataratas para el NHS en sitios en todo el Reino Unido, incluida Cumberland Infirmary.

La compañía adquirió una participación de control en General Healthcare Group, el grupo de hospitales privados más grande del Reino Unido con 50 hospitales, en 2006 por £ 2.2 mil millones. Esto llevó el número total de hospitales de Netcare a 120 con más de 11,000 camas, 510 quirófanos y 37 farmacias. GHG tenía una compañía subsidiaria, Amicus Health, que licitaba por contratos del NHS. Tenía contratos con el Hospital Stracathro para 8000 episodios de cirugía electiva en ortopedia, urología, cirugía general y gastroenterología entre 2006 y 2009. La compañía utilizó unidades móviles Vanguard Healthcare para tratar a pacientes con cataratas del NHS en todo el Reino Unido. Las unidades móviles de cataratas en Cumbria tuvieron tasas de falla 6 veces mayores que las de las instalaciones locales del NHS.

6 pacientes que fueron atendidos en el Royal Hospital Haslar en Portsmouth en 2006 demandaron después de operaciones defectuosas de cadera. Netcare culpó a un solo cirujano deshonesto que desde entonces había sido excluido de la operación y dijo que se trataba de "un incidente aislado".

En 2010, cinco médicos de Netcare, dos miembros del personal de la unidad de trasplantes y el director ejecutivo fueron acusados de presuntamente participar en un sindicato internacional de comercio de riñones en el que se pagaba a brasileños y rumanos pobres para que donaran riñones a israelíes ricos. La compañía se declaró culpable de realizar 109 operaciones ilegales entre 2001 y 2003. Admitió haber recibido 3.8 millones de rand (£ 342,000) del sindicato. Netcare KwaZulu, en la provincia oriental de KwaZulu-Natal de Sudáfrica, pagó 7,820,000 rand (£ 704,000) en multas.

Wang, W., A. N. Kravchenko, T. Johnson, S. Srinivasan, A. J. Smucker, J. B. Rose, and M. L. Rivers. 2013. Intra-aggregate pore structures and Escherichia coli distribution by water flow within and movement out of soil macroaggregates. Vadoze Zone Journal 12: DOI: 10.2136/vzj2013.01.0012 .
Differences in intra-aggregate pore characteristics induced by long-term differences in land use and management influenced distribution of Escherichia coli. Pore characteristics that affected E. coli distribution and retention within the aggregates were porosity, presence of large and medium pores, pore tortuosity, and maximum flow rate.
Soil aggregates are an important structural component of the soil matrix that could harbor Escherichia coli and provide an environment for its survival and water flow reentering. Knowledge of the exact pore locations within soil aggregates obtained using X-ray computed microtomography opens new opportunities for understanding microorganism movement within the soil matrix. The first objective of this study was to assess E. coli spatial distribution within soil macroaggregates and its potential for leaving the aggregates with the saturated water flow. The second objective was to study the relationships between the distribution and movement of E. coli within soil aggregates and the aggregates' internal pore structures. We studied aggregates from the top (A) horizon of conventionally tilled (CT) and no-till (NT) corn–soybean–wheat rotations and native succession vegetation (NS) treatments at NSF Long-Term Ecological Research site, southwest Michigan. The results confirmed that E. coli movement in soil aggregates was mainly driven by water flow via capillary forces. E. coli redistribution was most pronounced in CT aggregates, followed by NT, and was almost negligible in NS aggregates. Pore characteristics that positively contributed to E. coli redistribution through the aggregates were the maximum flow in the aggregate centers and the ratio of the maximum flow and pore tortuosity. The E. coli retention in the aggregate's centers was positively related to porosity, percent of medium and large pores, and pore tortuosity.

Q: I need help on creating columns with aggregations The following problems are based on the tables presented below where users have certain transactions. Keep in mind that the primary key of the Users table is on both the User ID and Site ID columns.
Users
User ID Site ID     Name
1        1          Arthur
2        1          Aaron
2        2          Brett

Transactions
Transaction ID  User ID Site ID Transaction Type    Transaction Date  Amount

9                  2       1         Sale              12/1/2016        30
10                 2       1         Sale              1/1/2017         30
11                 2       1         Sale              2/1/2017         30
12                 2       1         Refund            2/7/2017

   [enter image description here][1]-30

Write a query that will return a table with the following columns:
  User ID, Site ID, User Name, Total Sales, Total Refunds, Net Amount Collected

A: Check the query below.
SELECT
  t.UserId,
  t.SiteId,
  u.Name,
  sum(IIF(transaction_type = 'Sale', 1, 0) * isnull(Amount,0)) totalSales,
  sum(IIF(transaction_type = 'Refund', 1, 0) * isnull(Amount,0)) totalRefunds,
  sum(isnull(amount, 0)) NetAmount
From Transactions t
inner join Users u
  on u.UserId = t.UserId and u.SiteId = t.siteId
Group by
  t.UserId,
  t.SiteId,
  u.Name

A: You seem to be looking for conditional aggregation :
SELECT
    u.user_id,
    u.site_id,
    u.name,
    SUM(CASE WHEN t.transaction_type = 'Sale' THEN t.amount ELSE 0 END) total_sale,
    SUM(CASE WHEN t.transaction_type = 'Refund' THEN t.amount ELSE 0 END) total_refund,
    SUM(t.amount) total
FROM
    users AS u
    INNER JOIN transactions AS t
        ON  t.user_id = u.user_id
        AND t.site_id = u.site_id
GROUP BY
    u.user_id,
    u.site_id,
    u.name

A: If this was my homework question, I would add an overall total as well.
SELECT
     t.UserID
    ,t.SiteID
    ,u.Name
    ,SUM(CASE WHEN t.TranType = 'Sale' THEN t.Amount ELSE 0 END) AS tsales
    ,SUM(CASE WHEN t.TranType = 'Refund' THEN t.Amount ELSE 0 END) AS trefunds
    ,SUM(t.Amount) AS Total
FROM Transactions t
JOIN Users u ON u.SiteID = t.SiteID
             AND u.UserID = t.UserID
GROUP BY
     t.UserID
    ,t.SiteID
    ,u.Name
UNION
SELECT
     999 AS UserId
    ,999 AS SiteID
    ,'TOTALS:' AS [Name]
    ,SUM(CASE WHEN t.TranType = 'Sale' THEN t.Amount ELSE 0 END) AS tsales
    ,SUM(CASE WHEN t.TranType = 'Refund' THEN t.Amount ELSE 0 END) AS trefunds
    ,SUM(t.Amount) AS Total
FROM Transactions t

This will get a result that looks like this:

Note: I didn't think ahead and make the two ID columns Varchar, my easy fix was the 999 that you see to keep the order I wanted.

Q: Git status reports the branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master', but git push rejected When I enter git status I get the following:
On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'

But then when I enter git push I get this:
! [rejected]        master -> master (fetch first)
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@bitbucket.org:FoxRocks/pams_amo.git'
hint: Updates were rejected because the remote contains work that you do
hint: not have locally. This is usually caused by another repository pushing
hint: to the same ref. You may want to first integrate the remote changes
hint: (e.g., 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

I am hesitant to simply git pull from the repo because I don't know what the differences are. I read another post that said I should enter git fetch origin followed by git diff master origin/master but neither of these commands return anything at all. I added -v thinking I would get more information, but it didn't.
Am I misunderstanding what it means by "up-to-date with 'origin/master'"?

A:
Am I misunderstanding what it means by "up-to-date with 'origin/master'"?

Probably, yes. origin/master tracks master on the remote origin but it is still just local and does not stay up to date with the remote automatically. So you can be up to date with  origin/master but not with master on the remote origin. When you try to push, the discrepancy is revealed.
To sync them, git fetch. Now git status might change its tune! Try it and see.

ProHealth Care is the first health care system in Wisconsin to use an advanced wireless therapy to help women who experience incontinence better manage the condition.
Clockwise from upper left: The Axonics Therapy sacral neuromodulation device for bowel and urinary urgency incontinence includes a miniaturized rectangular neurostimulator that is placed under the patient's skin in the lower back, a handheld remote, a round battery recharging system and a small square wireless receiver for the charger.
Urgency urinary incontinence, sometimes called urge incontinence, is a sudden, intense urge to urinate followed by an involuntary loss of urine. Bowel incontinence is involuntary leaking of stool.
According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, urinary incontinence affects twice as many women as men due to pregnancy, childbirth and menopause. More than four in 10 women 65 and older have urinary incontinence. Bowel incontinence is also common in older adults.
"Patients who experience urgency urinary incontinence or bowel incontinence often limit their activities, which affects quality of life and can be socially isolating," said Sarit Aschkenazi, MD, a urogynecologist with ProHealth Medical Group. "Wireless sacral neuromodulation therapy is for patients who have already tried lifestyle changes, physical therapy and medication."
The therapy uses a stimulator implanted under the patient's skin on one side of the lower back to provide discrete, imperceptible and continuous electrical pulses that help the patient maintain bladder and bowel continence. The device gently stimulates sacral nerves in the pelvis that control the pelvic floor muscles, sphincter, bladder and lower bowel.
A non-surgical trial of the therapy is conducted first. Once it is confirmed that the therapy is efficiently treating urgency and incontinence symptoms, the stimulator is implanted during a short surgical procedure. The patient uses a small handheld, programmed remote to adjust the strength of the stimulation.
Wireless stimulation therapy implants for incontinence have been in use for two decades. Advances in the new device are:
A pocket-sized handheld remote that is 60% smaller than previous implant remotes.
FDA-approved magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility.
A longer-lasting, 15-year rechargeable battery using wireless technology.
Dr. Aschkenazi said that in the past, the implant was not MRI compatible. Patients expecting to need MRI imaging would often opt out of this treatment. In addition, the prior device was not rechargeable and had a life span of about five years.
Leona Joslyn of Waukesha began the therapy in November and is very pleased with it.
"I have a lot of symptoms that go along with bladder problems," she said. "Before I had the implant I was really going through a lot of bladder protection products.
"I don't feel anything at the current setting on the implant, but I have a little device to turn up or down the strength of the signal," she said.
Leona said the device is easy to recharge – it requires recharging for one hour about every two weeks. She's pleased to know that it can stay in place during an MRI.
"It's so easy," she said. "I kept waiting for the next good thing to come out, and this is one of them."
ProHealth Care providers work with insurance companies to help provide documentation needed for coverage of incontinence treatment.

NMR's M2C Program Helps Veterans Transition to the Civilian Workforce | NMR Consulting, Inc.
HUNTSVILLE, Ala., May 20, 2015 – NMR Consulting (NMR), a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), hosted its third successful Military-to-Civilian (M2C) Transition Assistance Program on Tuesday, May 19, 2015. 12 veterans and transitioning service members met at NMR's Huntsville office to receive one-on-one advice from experts on their résumés, social media profiles, and interviewing skills.
NMR, an information technology and program management company, created the M2C Program two years ago. Workshops are held throughout the year in both the Washington Capital Region and Huntsville, Ala. Since its founding, more than 75 veterans and transitioning service members have participated. "The workshop with all the insights and…tips was truly inspiring, and I did learn a lot. You turned me into a 'new' job seeker," said one of the May 19 participants.
The May 19 event was hosted in partnership with Still Serving Veterans, a well-known Huntsville-based non-profit that empowers veterans and their families to optimally transition into post military lives.
For more information about NMR's M2C Program, visit www.nmrconsulting.com/programs/m2c/.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Still Serving Veterans works to empower veterans and their families to optimally transition into post-military lives through workforce development, assistance obtaining all the benefits and services they have earned and deserve, and quality referrals to existing local, state, and national services. SSV staff is comprised of veterans and civilians with expensive experience working with veterans and their families. Staff interacts daily with veterans, works with veteran businesses, and coordinates employment opportunities with the 450 SDVOBs in Alabama. SSV staff also attends, and are member of local interagency meetings so that they might address the health and human service needs of Madison County. As a member of the North Alabama Veterans Fraternal Organizations Coalition (NAVFOC), SSV conducts monthly meetings with each agency to communicate the needs of veterans in Madison County and beyond. SSV also partners with OneStop Career Centers, the Department of Veteran Affairs, and the local Vet Center, whose mission is to provide counseling to veterans.

Russia to Develop New Attack Drone
Is Russia finally catching up with the West when it comes to drone technology?
Russian Deputy Defense Minister Yuri Borisov recently announced that a new long-range unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) will soon be made in Russia, according to Sputnik News. The article further notes that this new drone will be able to conduct reconnaissance missions and also be capable of attacking targets. "We are finalizing research and development work related to the drones that will solve an array of tactical, operational and strategic tasks," the deputy defense minister elaborates.
He further notes that this new combat drone, developed by several Russian aviation firms, including Sukhoi and Tranzas, will be used by the Russian Defense Ministry and the Federal Security Service (FSB). However, Borisov refused to provide the public with technical characteristics of this latest addition to Russia's burgeoning UAV program.
In 2012, Vladimir Putin announced that "unpiloted aircraft are being used more and more actively in armed conflicts; and I must say, they are being used effectively." He added, "[W]e need the full line, including automated strike aircraft, reconnaissance drones and other systems… It is imperative to involve best engineering and science bureaus and centers in this effort." Russia has allocated around $12 billion through 2020 for its UAV development program, which appears to be gaining momentum as of late (e.g., the Altius 001 UAV). In November 2014, Russia also announced that it will build a drone base for military reconnaissance just 420 miles off mainland Alaska.
On January 23, Russia Today broadcasted that the Russian United Instrument Corporation (UIC) (a branch of Rostec Corporation) has constructed two prototypes of the "Chirok" drone, a hybrid amphibious UAV for civilian and military use, and is prepping them for test flights. The article notes that this new drone may first appear in public at the MAKS-2015 air show at Zhukovsky Airfield near Moscow on August 25-30.
Russia Today notes the Chirok's "outstanding stealth capability" and states that the drone has "enough inner space to fit the weapons, such as small-size guided missiles or high precision bombs, internally, so that they won't interfere with aerodynamics and stealth characteristics." The operable range is 2,500 km, and the maximum cruising altitude is reported to be 6,000 meters. The drone also needs no runway for take-off.
However, a 2014 Jamestown Foundation report underlines that statements by domestic Russian arms suppliers "fly in the face of a recent report released by the Russian Foundation of Prospective Research (RFPR) (…) which asserted that UAVs represent an 'area of technology where [the Russian defense industry has] insufficient competencies.' The RFPR further noted that optics and electronics systems for light aircraft were an area of 'low competency.'"
The report further explains, "The development of these advanced UAV systems, in fact, represents a considerable technological challenge for the Russian defense industry, and there are serious questions about whether it can be accomplished without Western cooperation and technological know-how."
Overall, Russia's UAV program still lags behind Western efforts in this field and it will take a few more years for Moscow to catch up. "Russia and China's capabilities are quickly developing. By the end of the decade, if certainly not before, we have intel that shows they'll have the potential to develop the capability to produce a predator drone on par with American standards," notes a IHS Jane's analyst in an article for The Guardian.

WASHINGTON – There not being nearly enough discussion of chariot racing in American politics, it is worth recalling the story of the Greens and the Blues. These were the two main racing teams of the Byzantine Empire, and they generated considerable sporting enthusiasm. A clash of their fans in the riots of the year 501 took perhaps 3,000 lives. According to the judgment of many historians, these teams did not originally have political definitions. Blues, it seems, hated Greens mainly because they persisted in being Greens, and vice versa. But over time, the teams became identified with politicians and religious movements.
This is hardly a constructive model for dealing with excessive factionalism. But the example points to the danger of viewing politics as a team sport. Citizens can engage in civil discourse and productive compromise. Rabid fans can only be appeased by victory.
The most common form of criticism I receive from conservatives when I point out the tension between Trumpism and actual conservatism is that I am helping the other side in a win-or-lose contest. This approach to politics is cultivated by President Trump, who emphasizes solidarity with his political and cultural team to draw attention away from his own incompetence, ignorance and ideological heterodoxy. Much of his public rhetoric is in the form of trash talk, which many Americans seem to prefer to the boring language of policy disagreement or to the highfalutin language of shared aspiration.
Trump not only enjoys negative polarization, he depends on it. If your political reference points are decency, character and a commitment to the common good, the president is an ongoing disaster. If you believe that politics is the zero-sum struggle between cultural teams or tribes, then you want the most vicious bully on your side. There is no serious argument for Trump based on his own virtues. He only makes sense if politics is a cruel and bitter game.
The implications? At one level, a politics based on team loyalty ceases to serve political purposes. It may be entertaining – to those who find democratic decline a hoot – but it makes the building of working coalitions to confront specific problems more difficult. Anyone who wishes to cooperate with elements on the other side on, say, education reform, or health reform, or entitlement reform is viewed as giving aid and comfort to the enemy. If the main standard in politics is the victory or loss of the tribe, then the task of passing laws to make conditions better becomes secondary and suspect.
The prevalence of team groupthink has undermined the political functions of a variety of institutions. Think of the judicial confirmation process, which has been a spectacle of raw partisanship for decades. Senatorial deliberation on qualifications and temperament has devolved into a conflict waged by competing political campaigns.
This source of strength also makes America especially vulnerable to identity politics of left or right. When the overarching identity is weakened by declaring human differences to be primary, or when some subgroup of lighter-skinned people claims exclusive ownership of our national ideals, something rare and valuable moves toward history's disturbing norm of tribalism. It is playing with a form of fire that has burned time after time, through nation after nation.
These are the stakes when citizens become fans and turn the honorable calling of democratic politics into a destructive game.
After reading the March 22 letter, "Trump launches tacky tweets against war hero, McCain," I have two things to say to the letter writer: First, thank you for your service. My husband was a United States Marine Corps captain, two tours Vietnam veteran, who unfortunately passed away last year due to medical issues that were a result of exposure to Agent Orange.
In Buffalo Amazon Flex this past weekend has started delivering Amazon packages.
Previous to this for over half a decade the United States Postal Service (USPS) and its unionized letter carriers delivered these packages.
If as a customer you notice a change in the delivery location of your package this is due to private couriers are not authorized to place mail and/or packages in a USPS mailbox.
If letter carriers find items in a mailbox with no affixed USPS postage, they are required to return the items back to the post office and the USPS is required to charge the sender postage due for the item(s). This may delay the delivery of your Amazon items.
It's nice that Terry Pegula and his friends are trying to decide what kind of stadium Buffalo can afford.
But how about asking the city taxpayers what they would like by giving them the chance to vote on it, a new stadium or better roads?
Let's see where our priorities should really be.

Drug dealer Dario Carboni jailed for killing pensioner with car after fleeing crash
Dario Carboni, 25, pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of former paratrooper Kenneth Kiley after the 75-year-old followed him on foot to take down his insurance details
A drug dealer who killed an Army veteran by running him over with his car moments after the pair were involved in a crash has been jailed for nine years.
Dario Carboni, 25, pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of former paratrooper Kenneth Kiley after the 75-year-old followed him on foot to take down his insurance details.
Carboni had been on trial at Bristol Crown Court accused of murder but after 10 days of evidence pleaded guilty to manslaughter.
The jury heard that Mr Kiley was a passenger in a Toyota Yaris driven by his wife Marion when a blue Vauxhall Corsa driven by Carboni collided with them on a roundabout near their home in Swindon on the evening of July 8 last year.
Carboni failed to stop and drove away into a cul-de-sac while Mr Kiley got out on foot with a pen and paper, telling his wife he intended to find the driver and take their details.
Minutes later, at around 8.48pm, Mr Kiley was fatally injured by the Corsa.
Neighbours described hearing a man shouting, followed by "screeching tyres" and then a "loud thud", before seeing Mr Kiley lying in the road.
They described finding a pen and a folded receipt from Marks & Spencer on the ground by Mr Kiley.
Witnesses ran to help the pensioner and he was taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford with injuries including a skull fracture, but died the following day.
The Corsa was abandoned in a nearby street where Carboni and friend Patrick Cunnington were seen getting out and running away, having been in Swindon selling cannabis as a part of a "county lines" operation.
Stephen Kamlish QC, defending, said Carboni "panicked" after the initial collision and wanted to get away because he was banned from driving.
He read to the court a letter Carboni wrote to the family of Mr Kiley apologising for his actions.

The secret life of a crown court judge
"Every day I think about what happened that day and the devastating consequences of my actions for the family of Mr Kiley he has left behind," he wrote.
"I am shocked and ashamed by what happened but not stopping to help Mr Kiley I am truly sorry for.
"I want to say how sorry I am for causing so much pain to Mr Kiley's family."
Judge William Hart formally directed not guilty verdicts on charges of murder and causing death by dangerous driving.
Passing sentence, the judge said of the former University of Hertfordshire student: "You were very keen to get away from the collision, whether or not you were responsible for that collision.
"The reason for that was that you and Patrick Cunnington had been dealing cannabis in a county lines drugs operation.
"Mr Kiley had done what any honest, decent person would have done in the circumstances which was to get out and try and exchange details.
"He was the sort of man who would have done that regardless of who was at fault for the first collision.
"You didn't try to stop or swerve around him and that was down to your choice to drive the way you did.
"You took the obvious risk that a collision was going to happen and you were reckless as to whether harm was to be caused.
"What makes the loss of Mr Kiley so poignant was that it was so needless.
"Despite your background and despite all the opportunities you were getting in your life, you allowed yourself to stray from an honest world into the seedy drugs world."
Carboni, from Tottenham, north London, had already pleaded guilty to driving while disqualified and was banned from driving for eight and a half years and ordered to take an extended driving test.
Mr Kiley, who had been married for 48 years, served with the Parachute Regiment, the Intelligence Corps and later the Army reserves.
In a statement, his family, including widow Marion and sons Adam and Matthew, said: "Almost a year after Ken's death, his loss still leaves an enormous hole in the lives of our family and friends.
"Ken's death has devastated his wife, family and friends and has left an enormous hole in all our lives, which we are still coming to terms with, both in practical and emotional terms.
"Our mother, now in her late 70s and coping with Parkinson disease, has spent the last six months trying to rebuild her life without Ken.
"We feel this sentence is deserved and justified. Our family and especially our husband and father deserved justice and this sentence has gone some way to achieve this."

Florida SBDC Network, FloridaMakes Announce Partnership to Aid State's Small Manufacturers
Florida Chamber of Commerce Send an email April 29, 2022
Jacksonville, Fla. – The Florida Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Network and FloridaMakes have formalized a strategic partnership to support Florida's small manufacturers.
The partnership will provide greater access to and awareness of Florida SBDC Network and FloridaMakes training and resources for small manufacturers in Florida. The agreement will foster greater communication, cross-referrals, understanding of each other's services, and collaboration on training and programs for small manufacturers across the state.
L-R: Greg Britton, state director of the Florida SBDC Network, and Kevin Carr, CEO of FloridaMakes, with the MOU
"FloridaMakes' long commitment to strengthen and advance Florida's economy by improving the productivity and technological performance of small manufacturers compliments our mission of ensuring our state's small businesses have the expertise and resources to succeed," said Greg Britton, state director of the Florida SBDC Network. "We look forward to partnering with FloridaMakes to help more of our state's small manufacturers grow and create more jobs for Florida's families."
FloridaMakes is a statewide, industry-led, public-private partnership operated by an alliance of Florida's regional manufacturers associations with the sole mission of strengthening and advancing Florida's economy by improving the competitiveness, productivity and technological performance of its manufacturing sector, with an emphasis on small- and medium-sized firms.
"Florida is home to over 23,000 manufacturers, of which about 80 percent have 20 or less employees," said Kevin Carr, Chief Executive Officer of FloridaMakes. "This partnership will allow us to expand the breadth of services we offer the industry in order to help grow and retain small manufacturers in Florida."
Through this agreement, Florida's Regional Manufacturers Associations (RMAs), allied through the FloridaMakes network, may enter into local partnerships with Florida SBDC regional offices to support small manufacturers through local programs and initiatives.
A memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed between the organizations in Jacksonville during the Florida Chamber's Transportation Growth and Infrastructure Summit this week.

I love France #53: Book review: The Lavender Garden
Posted on June 5, 2013 by WordsAndPeace
I plan to publish this meme every Thursday.
and link your own post through Mister Linky,
at the bottom of this post.
The Lavender Garden
Publication date: June 11, 2013, by Atria Books
In full compliance with FTC Guidelines,
I received a free e-copy of this book
from Atria Books/Simon & Schuster
via Edelweiss,
in exchange for a fair and honest review.
I was in no way compensated for this post,
and the thoughts are my own.
The publisher link above will take you to a site
where you can purchase a copy.*
This book counts for the following Reading Challenges:
And another Eiffel Tower under gorgeous and well-deserved fireworks for this book on France!
Now: take a young woman, trying to figure out who her family really was, where they are coming from, as she witnesses the death of her mother.
Choose also 2 countries, France and England, 2 different time periods, Second World War and the 1990s. Then at one point get these 2 groups of people to connect. Add to that a garden where dangerous secrets are buried [beware, there can be more to lavender than the beautiful fields in Provence], plus richly characterized people, some linked with elements of romance. Don't forget some gothic points à la Rebecca, in a big old château, and oh of course the central role played by a book in The Lavender Garden.
What's the result? If you had not read the title of this post, I bet you would have answered: a book by Kate Morton. And you are right, it could absolutely be.
The neat thing is that this book is as beautifully intricate as Morton's books, but was written by ANOTHER talented historical novelist (the more the merrier, let them come!), coming from Ireland this time, not Australia.
I absolutely LOVED this book, with its focus on the French Resistance and the tough women part of Churchill's Special Operations Executive mission.
I loved the real depth of the young and old characters, how their much-layered inner conflicts were conveyed, as they are set in death and life situations. I loved the old French château (built in 1750) and its library, and its connection to the plot.
I loved some funny quirky images – see examples in the Quotations section here below.
I wanted to "kick in the b*" Emilie, just like what I wanted to do to Rebecca's narrator. But then, she actually grows in a lovely way throughout the novel, inspired by the heroism of her ancestors.
Even though I could guess most of the upcoming twists and turns, it was still extremely enjoyable. If you like historical novels set in France during Second World War, this book is a must.
"[Emilie] gazed out the window at the wisps of cloud suspended like uncooked meringues in the blue sky." p.1
"The July evening was excruciatingly hot, and Connie, in the tight-fitting bodice of her emerald-green evening dress, felt like a trussed-up chicken put on too warm a setting in the oven." p.114
The internationally bestselling author of The Orchid House takes readers from Nazi-occupied Paris to the contemporary glamor of the Cote D'Azur in an emotionally gripping novel of love, duty, and desire. With her dazzling novels The Orchid House and The Girl on the Cliff, Lucinda Riley effortlessly transported readers between distant times and locations and earned accolades from reviewers and readers around the world. In The Lavender Garden, her most powerful novel so far, she tells the mesmerizing tale of heroism and betrayal inside an aristocratic French family across half a century.
La Cote d'Azur, 1998: In the south of France, Emilie de la Martinières finds herself the sole inheritor of her childhood home, a magnificent chateau and vineyard. With the house comes a mountain of debt—and almost as many questions: What was the purpose of the secret room she finds hidden beneath the wine cellars? Why did her beloved father never speak of his decorated service in Word War II? Why has Emilie always felt at odds with her own family background?
Paris, 1944: A British office clerk, Constance Carruthers, is sent to Paris to be part of Churchill's Special Operations Executive during the climax of the Nazi occupation. Separated from the Resistance, she stumbles into a socially prominent family who entertains members of the German elite even as they plot to liberate France. In a city rife with collaborators and Resistance members, Constance's most difficult decision may be determining whom to trust with her heart.
As Emilie discovers what really happened to her family during the war and finds a connection to Constance much closer than she suspects, the chateau itself may provide clues that can unlock the mysteries of her past, present, and future. [Goodreads]
Lucinda Riley was born in Ireland and during her childhood traveled extensively abroad, particularly to the Far East to visit her father.
Moving to London she became an actress working in film, theater and television. Five years ago she designed and built a house on the island of Koh Chang in Thailand, where her father had purchased land many years before. Her passion for history combined with her love of travel, and Thailand in particular, inspired her to write her novel Hothouse Flower, published by Penguin in November 2010.
She currently lives in Norfolk and France with her husband and four children.
