Curious about how to become an au pair in the UK? Read on to hear about American au pair Amy's experience working for an English family, and her tips on how to best find a family and visa.
When people decide to au pair, often the main motive is to develop their foreign language skills. As someone who miserably stammered her way through the minimalist of Spanish classes, this was not true for me. I figured it would be hard enough to try to manage and care for someone else's children in English, let along struggling to do it in a different language.
I was lucky enough to find a lovely host family in England, where I spent six months caring for a family with four children.
I had an amazing experience and would recommend au pairing to anyone. Here is my step-by-step guide on how to become an au pair in the UK.
I wanted to go to the UK or Ireland because I didn't want to struggle with the language in addition to the other challenges of au pairing. However, as a US citizen, obtaining a legitimate working visa is a challenge.
US citizens can stay in the UK for up to three months as a tourist without a working visa, but if you choose to be sneaky at immigration you run the risk of being deported and being banned from travel in all Schengen countries – obviously, this is not something I would recommend!
Fortunately for me, I was eligible for BUNAC, a program that helps college students and recent grads obtain visas for limited employment. When I was an au pair, nine years ago (yikes!), my BUNAC visa allowed me to work for six months in the UK wherever I could find employment. It cost about $400 and was a relatively simple process done via mail.
Now, the BUNAC program seems to be completely different. The price has doubled and the program has become stricter, requiring you to obtain an internship before traveling to the UK. To be honest, looking at the options out there, it's incredibly difficult to get work as an au pair if you are a US citizen only. Canadian, Australian, and New Zealand citizens have more options (check out the Tier 5 Youth Mobility Scheme for a complete list of eligible countries). If you are a dual citizen, check the visa requirements for both nationalities.
If you have any tips or recommendations for getting a visa to au pair in the UK as a US citizen, please leave them in the comments section!
Due to the complicated visa issues, many au pair placement agencies don't offer services to US citizens. Instead, I turned to au pair databases.
These websites work a lot like dating websites – you make a profile, the host families make profiles, and then you both can do filtered searches to find a good match.
I used GreatAuPair.com and was quickly in contact with several families. Putting time into your profile here (just like on a dating website!) is really important.
Add lots of details, highlight any childcare experience, and upload a lot of photos. Consider how you're presenting yourself – you want to seem responsible but also like someone children would enjoy spending time with.
I found most families were looking for someone to come in the next 1-3 months, so know your timeline and be prepared to make commitments when you start searching for a family.
This is probably the most important stage. You want to find a situation where everyone involved is happy and comfortable. Be clear about what you can offer and what you expect.
I know it's very exciting to be planning a big life change, but don't necessarily jump at the first person who offers you a position.
I had a host family from Ireland who was interested but wanted me to stay longer than my visa would have allowed. I could have agreed to be sneaky, to change from my BUNAC visa to a tourist visa, but that wasn't something I was comfortable with.
Take the time to really get to know the family. Schedule a Skype or phone interview to get a feel for their personality but also request expectations in writing to limit confusion.
Will you be expected to drive the children anywhere? Are you going to be responsible for preparing meals? What are the hours and will there be any overnight babysitting? Are there any additional responsibilities besides childcare?
It wasn't until I was in the car with my host family for the first time that I found out their au pairs also cut the grass! It wasn't a big deal, but you want to minimize the number of surprises and hiccups that happen as you transition.
Also ask for references! See if they will put you in touch with the current or previous au pairs. If they are hesitant, that says a lot. The au pairs will give you another perspective, not just on the family and workload but also on daily life and social aspects of the specific situation.
…and make a photocopy of your passport.
Two days before I was supposed to fly home, I lost my passport. The day before my flight back to New York, I had to travel to London to apply for an emergency passport at the US embassy. I was very lucky to walk out three hours later with a new passport.
Having a photocopy of my lost passport was key – I might have been stuck at the embassy for hours or had to change my flight without that wrinkled piece of paper that had been forgotten in my suitcase for the last six months.
On another note, don't use your passport to get into clubs.
Au pairing can be a complicated thing. Your work and home life is blended. You are going to have all sorts of challenges and new situations and surprises and the children are definitely going to test you.
My host parents were incredibly wonderful, friendly and cheerful and fully supportive of my role as an authority figure. I also was careful not to overstep any authority bounds and to consult them as much as possible.
Not only are you responsible for health and welfare of little ones, but you want to make sure you feel comfortable in your new home. The more you bond with your host parents, communication will be easier, you'll be more of a team, and they really will become like family.
Just because you might speak the language, don't treat your experience like home! Make sure you're getting out and about.
Explore the country and take advantage of budget flights all over Europe! I had a week off while my host family was visiting in-laws and I went to Copenhagen, Venice, and Prague.
Expect there to be some culture shock and confusion. Sometimes it's more confusing when you have the same word in your languages but it means different things! I'm not sure I ever got used to "pants" being underwear and "pies" including everything from fruit pies to Shepard's pie.
Thanks to my time in England, I have a lasting love of British pop music, an affection for the Norfolk coast, and a disdain for drinking my tea with sugar.
I had an exceptional time au pairing in England and would recommend it to anyone who is considering it! If you have au pair-ed or is thinking about au pairing in the UK, share your advice and questions with us.

Au pairing can be scary. After all, you're choosing to move to a foreign country and live with a family you've never met. It's not easy.
Which is where this guide comes in. My guide will walk you through every step of how to become an au pair.
I've always been so intrigued by the concept of being an au pair! If I hadn't fallen into a media career very early on, perhaps I would have pursued this method as a way to travel overseas!
I'm just curious as to how your internship with the BUNAC program interfered with being an au pair. Was it a struggle to maintain both?
I'm an American who did both their undergraduate degree and masters in England. I'm looking for a way to remain in the UK for at least another year or so. Is it at all possible these days? I know from experience the visa process is incredibly challenging.

If you Google "Great Leadership" you will get over more results than you can filter through – I actually find that fascinating. So much knowledge to be had at our fingertips and so many people writing about the topic of Leadership, yet we complain about the lack of leadership (within our companies, communities, government) on a daily basis. How can we have all these ideas and opinions about what makes a great leader, yet perceive a serious lack of it?
I decided to do a little research on the subject, just enough to get a feel for the overall thoughts of what makes a great leaders and why we believe there aren't any out there. In my own completely unscientific approach, I read the top 10 search results for two search phrases: (1) Lack of Leadership and (2) Great Leadership. The following is a summary of what I found – click on the terms above to see what I saw – it's a fascinating view of our world.
Just because someone has a title, a corner office, or millions (billions) of dollars, does not necessarily make them a great leader. Here are 5 themes I picked up from reading about poor leadership.
1. Loving the title, not the team: As I read several articles about bad leadership, one theme that kept coming back (in various phrases and words) was the concept that many people in leadership positions start to love "how other people perceive them" (i.e. suckups or strangers), more than how their team perceives them.
2. Managing UP: An area of great concern, to those being lead, is whether a leader is more concerned with their own career or how they look to the organization, than individuals within the team. If your leader is more concerned with making a show of what "they've done" rather than what the team or individuals have accomplished – it is a signal to you as a team member about the value to you bring to the table. Poor leaders make sure they get the credit, but never the blame.
3. Poor leaders beget poor leaders: It may not come as a surprise, but poor leaders usually hire poor leaders. Regardless of who is doing the hiring, all the things that make up great leaders, will be the exact things that turn off a poor leader – and one of the hallmarks of poor leadership is not allowing someone else to be in the spotlight.
4. Decisions … poor leaders can't make them: A ripple effect of the list of poor leadership traits in most, if not all, poor leaders is their inability to make a definitive decision by themselves. They are caught in the cross-hairs of their own personality – on that razor's edge of Success and Failure – when this one decision can make or break their standing within the organization. It's a tough place to be, but this one thing is a tell-tale sign of bad leadership.
5. All Talk, No Action: On the heels of #4 above, is another easy sign of who is the real leader and who isn't. There is a saying "You can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk?" – roughly that translates to … you sound very good when you talk, you know all the words, the catchy phrases, the industry jargon, but can you really put it together and make things happen? Poor leaders may be great talkers – either one-on-one, in team meetings, or standing at a podium – but that does not equate to being able to actually lead anyone and get the right things done, at the right time.
It has been said Great Leaders are not made, they are born. That may or may not be true, maybe there is a genetic disposition to being a great leader – I'll let those genetic engineers figure that one out. What I do know, you can spot the real leader in most groups – but being a leader and also being great are two different things. The following 5 themes seem to crop up in most discussions about great leaders and leadership.
1. Know the difference between Management and Leadership: Great leaders may or may not be great managers – which is why there are positions such as "Chief of Staff", "Chief Operating Officers" and any number of similar roles. Great leaders are notoriously poor administrators. They hate the paperwork and established processes. They are doers, and those just get in the way of doing. That being said, they understand the importance of administration, process, coloring between the lines – so many will demand their teams follow those same things they dislike.
2. Want to work with great people, which translates to hiring great people: Great leaders are not afraid to hire talented people, even if those people could be great leaders themselves. I was looking for a quote to go along with this one. What I found out, is that those people who are successful and recognized leaders, will always talk about hiring great and talented people. The flip side of that coin is they also don't want to work for poor leaders themselves. They have an innate ability to recognize poor leadership and understand how it will affect them (and their teams).
3. Provide vision, then get out of the way: One of the key attributes of a great leaders is their ability to either create or translate a vision into "what it means" to the people who will actually do the heavy lifting. They are there to facilitate and motivate their teams, that starts with having a vision – without it, a leader will be just another corporate-drone, repeating what they are told. How the work gets done is not as important as getting it done. Everyone has goals and timelines – great leadership help to position those as motivators, rather than detractors. Making a push for year-end numbers is a fact of life in business, but having the sales leader "whip" his sales people to perform doesn't need to be part of it.
4. They're just good people: This may seem obvious, but it's not. Think about all those "bad" bosses you've had in the past – what names would attribute to them. Now, think of all those wonderful bosses (or other people that lead something which you were involved) and what names would attributed to them. We are all human, but a really great leaders is a "people person" they care about you, they care about what they are doing and how they spend their time, they care about hitting the numbers or goals set in front of them – in general they care. And that caring nature is one of the things that pushes them into the great category.
5. Lead from the front: This is my catch-all theme. But if your leaders isn't willing to get their hands dirty, roll-up their sleeves and just help "get it done", they won't be around when things go wrong. You can tell a great leaders by two things (1) the quality of the people that follow them and (2) the number of leaders they "create". Trust, Faith, Belief are all words that a great leader will inspire – and in most cases, that means when times are bad, they help, they assume responsibility, and provide the necessarily guidance to move through it. Great leaders may have failures, and when you talk to them, some of their most animated stories will be about those failures – but they are not defined by the failure, rather they are defined by what happened next. You can always tell great leaders, they stand tall and proud, up front and center.
Sometimes all you have is a gut feeling about one person versus another. Whether you are hiring them, or they are hiring you – eventually, you will know what kind of leaders they are. No one can hide their true selves forever. There are times when you just know, because they have that "It" factor, you just want to be around them. If you find someone like that, count your blessings. It's much more rare than we would like to believe.
I have to admit it, the internet is a wonderful thing, especially when you are just meandering along, following random links, not specifically looking for anything. And BOOM, you see something that looks interesting, and you get sucked into a subject, you had not expected to be sucked into. That happened to me this morning – all of a sudden, I was sucked into reading about Gamification of business (both in the world external marketing and internal support). I was fascinated – I remember reading about game theory a few years back and now here was this information about using the idea of "games" to engage our customers and employees. I guess at the end of the day, all of us are "gamers".
What makes up gamification? Well think of any game, from physical games to online games – what are the characteristics that make up your favorite games?
1. Rewards – we all like to be rewarded. Some games are either "win or lose" type games, others include points, some include badges or new abilities – but rewarding someone for something is key element in the use of games (and in gamification).
2. Competition – at our core, we like to compete. Games give us that competitive feeling, and in some games, we not only compete against someone (or something) but we also compete with the clock, creating a sense of urgency along with the sense of competitiveness.
3. Increase Difficulty – humans like rewards, we like competition – but we also get bored easily. Games (especially computer/video/mobile/online games) give us new experiences, harder challenges, and of course, better rewards and bragging rights. All to keep us engaged.
4. Feedback – the best games keep us informed of our progress – what we have done, where we have been, and more importantly, where we might be headed (but only a glimpse). Feedback, whether is through menus, onscreen dashboards, auditory – is an important aspect of gaming to keep the player pushing forward and not giving up too soon.
5. Social – as we have seen over the past few years, providing a social element is critical to the success of games – and it is critical to the success of gamification. Since we are not so connected to our social media, the success of Facebook and mobile games have proven that we humans like to brag about our experiences – especially when we are winning.
But how are Businesses using gamification?
The following are examples I have found (with links provided) to companies and organizations utilizing games, gamification, and gaming theory to engage their customers and/or their employees.
FoldIt – Problem solving applied to protein molecules. Result: over 240,000 players registered for the game and competing viciously against each other. A solution to the structure of the M-PMV was found in 10 days, creating a major breakthrough in the AIDS research field.
Recyclebank – Rewards users for doing everyday things that are good for the environment, such as learning how to cut back on water consumption or purchasing greener products – specifically, those with the Recyclebank logo.
Slalom Consulting – Seattle-based Slalom Consulting had 2,000 employees in offices around the United States. To improve internal communications, the company decided to create a mobile application that would help employees learn the names and faces of their colleagues. To encourage participation, the application included a "leaderboard" showing who had the highest scores, says CEO Brad Jackson. The tactic backfired. "We found that only 5% of the people truly cared about being at the top of the leaderboard," he says. The prizes – gift cards – weren't enough, either. One tweek, creating "teams" to compete – made all the difference. Participation went up to 90%.
There are any number of ways to apply it to your business – only your imagination is the limit. Here are links to three resources I found (but do a Google search to find your own).
So what are your thoughts? Let me know below in the comments.
I can't tell you how many articles I've read about how the world of business is changing; or why your "old school" ways of selling are just not working anymore; or if you're not working the social channels into your marketing, success will be elusive at best.
It's 3am again and I woke up in a cold sweat. That uncomfortable feeling gripping my stomach, wrenching it into knots. No sense fighting it – so I swung my legs over the edge of the bed and stumbled to the bathroom. As I flipped the switch, it was like being slapped in the face as the darkness blinked away. The first sight was my reflection in the mirror, with a slight disgusted shake of my head, I reached down, turned on the cold water and splashed some on my face. It was going to be a long day … as many had been over the past few months.
Launching a new business or new product is never easy, although it is significantly easier than pivots and re-launches. Either of those is filled with more dread, more stress, more pressure, than doing something new and exciting. It's easy to stay excited about a "game changer", bouncing out of bed with new ideas, talking to partners and potential customers, telling them how "great this will be when it's launched". That – well frankly, is easy.
As soon as I heard about the merger, my mind started reeling – because things like this usually get my mind engaged – it's so much fun to speculate about "What Will Happen"? And this one … well, LinkedIn wasn't going to be purchased for a few bucks, even with their stock price down for the past few months.


Planet F1 is my favourite F1 website. Their editorials are perceptive and entertaining, and usually fairly accurate. Highlights are the race previews and reviews.
used to be a pay only site, but has now opened up its news pages to the public. It is an excellent source of F1 and MotoGP news, and also reports on other series. The subscription service (~$50/year) includes a weekly online magazine which has gone sharply downhill since the departure of Nigel Roebuck in January 08.
ITV's F1 website is an endangered species now that the BBC is taking over UK F1 broadcasting from 2009, but the features from Martin Brundle, Mark Hughes, and David Coulthard are always worth a read.
F1.com is the official F1 website and its main attraction is live timing for all sessions during a race weekend. The technical articles about F1 cars are definately worth reading too.
Racing Underground has a huge catalog of motorsports videos for download via BitTorrent. This website has let me watch all the series that aren't screened in the US: Aussie V8s, WRC, A1GP, BTCC, plus a lot of F1 videos. You need to register for an account (which is free) and set up a bit torrent client (like utorrent) but it is pretty easy. You might need a bit of bandwidth too, most of the vids are >600Mb.
I spend a lot of time at nogripracing.com, which is a relaxed and friendly sim-racing community. My user name is hardjack79 (it is a partial contraction of my first and last names, if you were wondering, and I'm kind of stuck with it now). The forums at nogrip are generally free of dickheads and the downloads sections for GTR2 and GTL are very well populated.
I sometimes wonder what my life would have been like if I hadn't stumbled across BATracer. It is a "Free Racing Manager Game" where you compete in a season of one of a dozen motorsport series against other people from all over the world. You usually have a team-mate (a friend or a soon-to-be-friend) and you adjust parameters for strategy, setup, and driving style to determine how your driver will attack the next qualifying or race session. Then once a day BATracer calculates the session and the next time you log on you can check out how you did and prepare for the next session. It has entertained me for almost 3 years now and I've put many dozens (I hope its not more) of hours into trying to estimate the game parameters out of race and practice data -- it is pure crack for a data analysis junkie. And its completely free. Unbelieveable.
I have been beta-testing a racing wheel by Fanatec since March, and I'll eventually publish a review and some tips for it. It is a beautiful wheel, and I've been having a lot of fun playing GT Legends, GTR 2, and Richard Burns Rally with it. Fanatec have been working hard to make the wheel even better and the final product is shipping as I write this (May 2008). The wheel is called the Porsche 911 Turbo Wheel, and features exceptional belt-driven force feedback, 900 degrees of rotation, clutch pedal, a 6+1 shifter and a sequencial shifter, and wireless connection with the PC.
ATI Tray Tools by Ray Adams is an awesome free application for ATI Radeon video cards. It can overclock, tweak, and monitor the hardware, and is a very easy interface for changing the driver settings and can load special graphics profiles when you start different games. Hidden away in the profiles menu is an option for enabling tripple buffering, which has let me play my games with Vertical Sync enabled without worrying about dropouts when the fps drop below the refresh rate. This is one of the best downloadable applications I've ever come across. It is also bundled with every Omega driver (which I find give me a few extra, badly needed, fps).
VLC Media Player is great for all the right reasons. It is incredibly small, free, community developed, feature rich, runs on almost all platforms/OS's, has no advertising, is safe, and most importantly it runs almost any media format/codec you can throw at it: streaming media, audio, video, subtitles,... I've even pointed it towards an .iso file and it played that without a blink. The stock interface is very simple, but even that can be skinned.
is another amazing small (215kb!), well coded, and well documented application. Utorrent is a free bit-torrent client with all the necessary features and I have put it to good use since discovering Racing-Underground.com in 2007. There is a beta available (balloons out to 260kb) which adds a web-interface so that you can control your torrents from afar.

ActionAid | Missing Pathways: The Role of the Land Sector in Ambitious Climate Action
ActionAid was a vital part of the working group within CLARA that drafted "Missing Pathways: the role of the land sector in ambitious climate action" released in October of 2018. This report sought to highlight the many opportunities for action in the land sector that are in keeping with truly ambitious climate action, and that support rather than undermine basic human rights.
With support from One Earth, ActionAid pursued its advocacy objectives around climate action in the land sector, with a particular focus on raising the human rights and food security concerns around BECCS. They were able to deepen their work around the Climate, Land, Ambition and Rights Alliance (CLARA) paper, as well as engage with the IPCC Special Report on Climate and Land.

Since our first report last year, Lemonade Insurance, a technology reboot scheduled to offer peer-to-peer insurance products, has launched in four states, offering landlords and tenants insurance in New York, California, Illinois and New Jersey. Lemonada's groundbreaking use of technology and its alternative business model can prove disruptive to the insurance industry.
6 by approving a claim for a stolen jacket in three seconds.
The Lemonade's business model also differs from the traditional insurance company. Most insurers deduct the difference between the premium amount and the amount paid out for claims. Lemonade winnings by taking a premium deduction of premium. The company uses another part of the premium for reinsurance and other expenses. Any remaining premiums that are not used to pay claims are then donated to charities. Policyholders can choose from several charities where Lemonade donates the remaining grant. The policyholders who choose the same charities are grouped together and the remaining premiums for each group are given to the selected charity of that group. In the first year, the total remaining premium to charities amounted to about $ 53,000, which was about 10% of Lemonade's revenue from September 2016 to June 2017.

The Breaking Apart of South African Families
2263 WordsFeb 25, 20189 Pages
South Africa has long been known for the racist policies that were implemented by the government during apartheid. In reality, many of these policies were introduced before apartheid, and thus South Africa today is affected by centuries rather than just a few decades of racism. The racial practice and policies of the nineteenth century that developed out of South Africa's mineral revolution were then carried into the apartheid era, and are of particular importance for black South African families. The desires of the white population to have sufficient labour and to monitor it while reserving urban areas for whites occasioned the government to create restrictive laws starting in the late nineteenth century which were carried into apartheid. These laws and practices broke apart the South African black family and has resulted in enduring consequences for black families and South Africa. With the mineral revolution, African men began to leave their families to go and work. From the beginning of European and African interaction in South Africa, the whites have been dependent on African labour, the mineral revolution merely intensified this. It also led to an agricultural revolution in order to feed the workers. African labour was cheaper than white labour and so they were desired by employers. This demand for cheap labour led to an availability of jobs which tempted some African men to migrate to these areas of work. There was continually a shortage, however, and the government
Chinua Achebe 's Things Fall Apart
Western views of African culture have often been those of disdain. Some books about Africa have set out to change the typical Western views of African culture, but others have upheld these negative views of African culture. Through each of their novels, Alan Paton, Chinua Achebe, and Joseph Conrad approach the topic of African culture and Western views on it differently. Chinua Achebe shows through his book, Things Fall Apart, that he is disapproving of Western views towards African culture. This exchange

Q: Why is this UNION like a struct? I came across some code (it's in a library from Microchip) which has a union.
All was good, until I saw it assigned values to different members of the union right after each other.  My immediate thought was "They are over writing the same location..."
Then I decided to do a test.  By every measure I thought I understood, this union should be one byte (8 bits).  But it's not...  it's 4 bytes.
#pragma pack(1)
typedef union _STATUS
{
    BYTE Val;
    struct {
        unsigned BC8 : 1;
        unsigned BC9 : 1;
        unsigned BSTALL : 1;
        unsigned DTSEN : 1;
        unsigned INCDIS : 1;
        unsigned KEN : 1;
        unsigned DTS : 1;
        unsigned UOWN : 1;
    };
    struct {
        unsigned BC8 : 1;
        unsigned BC9 : 1;
        unsigned PID0 : 1;
        unsigned PID1 : 1;
        unsigned PID2 : 1;
        unsigned PID3 : 1;
        unsigned : 1;
        unsigned UOWN : 1;
    };
    struct {
        unsigned : 2;
        unsigned PID : 4;
        unsigned : 2;
    };
} STATUS;
void PrintIt() {
    printf("Size of UNION is %d \n", sizeof(STATUS));
}

It should be the largest of any member, which each member is only 8 bits.
The code that caught my eye and made me investigate this is:
STAT.BC9 = 0;
STAT.BC8 = 0;
STAT.Val |= byteToSend;

Which the third line merges into the values from the first and second.
So I wanted to test it, it's coming out as 4 bytes, not one.  I even tested it in a few different compilers (hence the #pragma usage for MS Visual C).
Each member is exactly 8 bits, and the last two struct overlap to place the PID values in the same memory location.  And yet this is 4 bytes every way I use a compiler to evaluate it.
Is there something in the behavior of adding structs to unions?
Any explanation is appreciated.

A: While not explicitly specified in the C standard, bitfield will typically occupy a unit corresponding to the base type they are declared with.
In this case all of the bitfields are declared as unsigned.  This type is probably 4 bytes on your system so the bitfields occupy a unit of that type.
If you change the types of the fields to unsigned char or uint8_t they should take up only one byte.  Note that this assumes your compiler allows using these types for bitfields, although most do.

A: C has the concept of implicit type. So unsigned will declare an unsigned int. But it gets weirder. The same goes if you only use const or static/auto.
const x = 5; // Declares a const int variable
static x;    // Declares a static int variable
const static unsigned x = 5; // Declares a const static unsigned int variable

What you want is an unsigned char.

It should be the largest of any member, which each member is only 8 bits.

It should be at least that size. Nothing prevents it from being bigger.

A: *

*It will not compile as you have duplicate member names in anonymous structures.

*You do need to pack it if you use 8 bits type for your bitfields.

typedef union
{
    unsigned char Val;
    struct {
        unsigned char BC8 : 1;
        unsigned char BC9 : 1;
        unsigned char BSTALL : 1;
        unsigned char DTSEN : 1;
        unsigned char INCDIS : 1;
        unsigned char KEN : 1;
        unsigned char DTS : 1;
        unsigned char UOWN : 1;
    };
    struct {
        unsigned char BC81 : 1;
        unsigned char BC91 : 1;
        unsigned char PID0 : 1;
        unsigned char PID1 : 1;
        unsigned char PID2 : 1;
        unsigned char PID3 : 1;
        unsigned char : 1;
        unsigned char UOWN1 : 1;
    };
    struct {
        unsigned char : 2;
        unsigned char PID : 4;
        unsigned char : 2;
    };
} STATUS;

int main(void) {
    printf("Size of UNION is %d \n", (int)sizeof(STATUS));
}

https://godbolt.org/z/zsfhnGeWd
Remember that some compilers will pack to the type you specify (chibicc for example).

A: While dbush was answering, I was adding my own answer as well, after digging deeper.
I would describe it as:
The "unsigned" implies an "int"  So you are defining the first 8 bits of an integer storage.
typedef union _STATUS {
BYTE Val;
struct {
    unsigned char BC8 : 1;
    unsigned char BC9 : 1;
    unsigned char BSTALL : 1;
    unsigned char DTSEN : 1;
    unsigned char INCDIS : 1;
....
} STATUS;

When limiting the size to unsigned char, the union is now actually 1 byte.

After a gripping debut, 'When They See Us' closes viewers' eyes
The series focuses on the five teenagers of color were wrongly convicted of raping a female jogger in Central Park in 1989.
By Chris Byrd • Catholic News Service • Posted June 7, 2019
NEW YORK (CNS) — Highly anticipated but hugely disappointing, the four-part, four-and-a-half-hour limited series "When They See Us" is currently streaming on Netflix. The first three episodes each run an hour, with the finale running 90 minutes.
Robert De Niro and Oprah Winfrey are among the executive producers of the series, as is acclaimed African-American director Ava DuVernay ("Selma"), who helmed and co-wrote the program. The series recalls one of the more notorious and still controversial cases in the recent history of American jurisprudence: the 1989 Central Park jogger rape and assault.
On the evening of April 19 that year, 28-year-old Salomon Brothers investment banker Tricia Meili (Alexandra Templer) went for a run in the park. She was brutally raped and beaten and left to die.
Scores of African American and Latino teenagers from Harlem also were in the park that night. They were seen harassing and attacking white bike riders, and their behavior was later described as "wilding."
When Linda Fairstein (Felicity Huffman), the head of the sex crimes division of the Manhattan district attorney's office, arrives at the crime scene, she initially determines one man assailed the runner. The prosecutor changes her tune, however, when she learns that the young men who were wilding were in the park at roughly the same time as Meili.
Convinced these "animals" had something to do with the crime, Fairstein orders detectives to interrogate the adolescent boys — who were going to be released to family court — in order to connect them to the felony.
As DuVernay presents it, an overzealous investigation resulted in a group of youths, ages 14-16, being targeted as the principal suspects in the attack: Antron McCray (Caleel Harris), Kevin Richardson (Asante Blackk), Yusef Salaam (Ethan Herisse), Raymond Santana Jr. (Marquis Rodriguez) and Korey Wise (Jharrel Jerome). Collectively, they were forever tagged as the "Central Park Five."
The first two episodes concentrate on the investigation, arrest and trials of the quintet while concluding installments illustrate their struggles to cope after being convicted.
Without any physical evidence to link the youths to the crime, the state largely relied on their videotaped confessions which — as portrayed here — were riddled with inconsistencies, contradictions and falsehoods. The show makes it plain, moreover, that these juvenile admissions were coerced by deceptive and violent detectives without any concern for the rights of the accused.
The nature of their supposed crimes made the boys, who were convicted in separate 1990 trials, prison pariahs. Mentally challenged and ill-suited to life behind bars, Wise suffered more than the others. His refusal to confess to the crime disqualified him from being paroled, and his vulnerability subjected him to multiple beatings by fellow inmates and prison guards.
Though somewhat justified by the context of the story it tells, the graphic violence on display in "When They See Us" occasionally seems excessive. The show's script also is peppered with strong off-color language — including, unsurprisingly, some racial slurs.
Depictions of mild sensuality and mature themes, including narcotics trafficking and transgenderism, are among the other factors that suggest an adult audience.
Viewers should bear in mind that the series reflects DuVernay's version of contested events. As was the case with "Selma," critics will likely fault the director for inaccuracies in the plot. Police and prosecutors also may push back against the depiction of their behavior.
After a gripping opening episode, "When They See Us" falters, moreover, losing its hold on viewers, perhaps even alienating some of them. Though they may be sympathetic to the plight of the main characters as they return to society, viewers will grow weary of their internecine quarrels.
Overall, what might have been a story of redemption and vindication winds up being a slow slog through a great deal of misery.
Byrd is a guest reviewer for Catholic News Service.

        {
          "permissionname": "Testpermission 3"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

`
I've checked the jsonata documentation but cannot find a good way to achieve this.

A: You can use the reduce operator to group by a role as described in the Grouping docs here, and then map it to your desired shape:
{
  "name": name,
  "roles": payload{
    role: permission
  } ~> $each(function($permissions, $role) {
    {
      "rolename": $role,
      "permissions": $permissions.{ "permissionname": $ }
    }
  })
}

Bonhams Announces New Chantilly Concours Sale in France
Bonhams brings black ties and collector cars to an evening auction at the Chantilly Arts & Elegance on September 5 in Chantilly, France.
The Arts & Elegance event debuted in 2014 on the grounds of Château de Chantilly. A crowd of around 10,000 took in the delights of the Concours d'Elegance competition for modern concept cars and the Concours d'Etat for classic cars from around the world. Publisher Martin has been invited to return as a judge and is looking forward to the concours and the new auction.
The event also plays host to fine art exhibitions, fashion shows, live music, lifestyle exhibits and equestrian activities. Chantilly is home to Chantilly Racecourse and the Living Museum of the Horse, in addition to boasting the largest racehorse-training community in France.
"We're delighted to announce this brand new and exclusive motoring sale, taking place on the luxurious grounds of the Château de Chantilly. The event perfectly complements the motoring auction calendar, and will offer an additional sale for our European clientele," said Philip Kantor, Bonhams European Head of Motorcars.
"The concept is to offer a bespoke 'salon' style auction, offering a limited number of very fine examples of collectors' motor cars, perhaps thirty or so carefully selected lots for the 'black tie' evening auction. Our partner, Peter Auto, has embarked on an innovative approach with Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille, creating a new style of Concours, and Bonhams is delighted to be part of it."
Patrick Peter, President of Peter Auto, said: "Bonhams is famous the world over for its auctions, in particular those featuring collectors cars, so we're delighted that this renowned company will associate itself with our Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille event in addition to its presence at Spa Classic. The organisation of such a sale in September in Chantilly confirms the momentum generated by the event only a year after it was held for the first time."

William Trickett (Dickinson Chronicles)
William Trickett was born on June 9, 1840 in the English Midlands town of Leicester. When he was very young his family moved from England to Philadelphia where he lived until he entered Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania in 1866. Two years later he was awarded his bachelor of arts degree. Upon graduation in 1868, Trickett assumed the role of principal of the Dickinson Grammar School for one year, followed by service for two years as adjunct professor of philosophy at the College. He earned his master's degree from Dickinson in 1871 and, immediately following, left to tour Europe for two years.
Trickett returned to Dickinson, teaching modern languages for a year, but in 1875 he was among the three faculty members whose contracts were not renewed by President James McCauley. Trickett then began to focus his energies on the law, and in 1876 he was admitted to the Cumberland County Bar Association. In 1890 he received an honorary degree in law from DePauw University, and in that same year he was selected to serve as dean of Dickinson Law School. Trickett would retain this position until his death on August 1, 1928. Trickett Hall on the campus of the Dickinson School of Law is named in his honor. He never married.

Gamaliel Bailey was born in Mount Holly, New Jersey, United States. He was an American journalist, working primarily in Cincinnati, and Washington, D.C. An abolitionist, he supported journalism that promoted the cause, persisting despite violent mob attacks on his offices in both cities during the 1840s. He graduated from the Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, in 1827. In 1831, he moved to Cincinnati, where he set up a medical practice. He also lectured on physiology at the Lane Theological Seminary. In 1843 he launched a daily paper, the Herald.

While many people consider the revving engines of a high-end European vehicle to be the hallmark of a great car, a growing number of consumers are looking into ways to minimize their impact on the environment. It's no longer just the fringe groups, either – recently, the entire country of Germany voted to ban gasoline and diesel vehicles by 2030! With the world trending towards more responsible and sustainable energy sources, but a vast amount of modern life dependent on motorized transportation, one field is pulling out far ahead of the rest: electric cars.
The term "electric car" might conjure up images of tiny smart cars, puttering along behind the luxurious European brands that you love. But over the last few years, ground-breaking research has led to massive innovations in speed, style, and sustainability, and nearly every major auto manufacturer now has some stakes in the game – including the ones that have reputation for engineering, luxury, and power.
BMW is one such brand. Known for their sleek designs and finely tuned engines, BMW got to work designing an all-electric, emission-free vehicle that wouldn't compromise on quality…and the end result is the BMW i Series. These BMW i Electric Cars are turning heads and dropping jaws. They are truly high-end cars that you could swear had all the power of a regular gasoline engine.
The BMW i3, a locally emission-free vehicle designed for city driving, is a great example. It is engineered to complement city life, with its small size and 200+ km range off a single charge of its high-voltage 94 Ah lithium-ion battery. One of its most incredible features is its regenerative braking system, which – instead of using friction to stop, creating unwanted waste particles, heat, and wear – converts the motion of the car into stored energy, which is then fed back into the battery system and can used to extend the range even farther. Since the BMW i3 has excellent acceleration, that means every time you stop at an intersection or parking lot, some of the energy you just used is given back, to be used again.

Apple has had a somewhat clean record in the area of exploding devices unlike Samsung and the Note 7 Drama but they have been caught up in a few unfortunate circumstances lately. After the Apple Systems Hacking, there seems to be an exploding battery issue.
An iPad exploded at the Apple Store in Amsterdam on Sunday as a result of an overheated or leaky battery, as reported by Dutch outlet AT5. No one was injured, although three people at the store were treated for respiratory problems after the event.
It is not clear if the ipad burst into the flames or was a suttle incident. The Apple staff at the store quickly placed the device in a container filled with sand. The iPad is said to have continued to emit vapors of some irritating substance, which affected three people.
The city's fire brigade subsequently arrived on the scene, and the Leidseplein store was evacuated. Business resumed by 3PM, and customers were allowed back in.
This is not the first time an apple device has exploded. Back in January, an iPhone battery overheated and caused the handset to explode at a showroom in Zurich – causing minor burns to a repair worker.

West Midlands does have administrative signifcance. The North Downs and South Downs are specific proper names. How is this question anything but opinion-based, or intended to spark discussion? Please edit the question to include justification that it is not. – Andrew Leach♦ Apr 29 '15 at 15:42
I disagree with @Andrew Leach. Amongst the agencies that put these terms in print, there's a broad consensus, in line I think with Chris Harland's reply. – David Garner Apr 29 '15 at 16:02
@AndrewLeach Your action I believe answers my question. You are saying it is 'primarily opinion based', which is what I am getting from people who have provided more specific answers. And, yes, sorry about the West Midlands. – WS2 Apr 29 '15 at 16:25
In the UK in proper English, North,South, East and West always have capital letters. – bamboo Apr 29 '15 at 17:38
@bamboo I've just done a search on today's edition of The Independent, and the only places where west is given a capital W is where it forms part of a proper noun e.g. West Sussex, West Baltimore,West Riding, West End. Otherwise where it appears in simple text it is not capitalised e.g. southernmost of the Hebridean islands off the west coast of Scotland. I am, however, interested in what you say. Is this something you were taught at school? – WS2 Apr 29 '15 at 18:04
Firstly, I would say that where you are using "isles of Scilly", it should definitely be "Isles of Scilly" as that is a specific place name.
However, after that it is, I'll admit, a grey area. Personally, I think that you are correct with south coast, west country, north Norfolk coast and East Anglian heights. But I believe that western Isles would be more acceptable and think that the North and South Downs should be capitals as they are referring to actually geographical place names. Also, Derbyshire Dales should be capital as you have for the Yorkshire Dales above.
Of course, if you use them in the manner that you have I don't think anyone can really criticise you because, as with the use of the apostrophe, English is a fluid language and changing all the times. I think some of your places without capitals merely reflect the more modern (almost txt speak style) that is growing in the language.
Chris HarlandChris Harland
Very good answer. Clearly it can largely be a matter of individual discretion. – WS2 Apr 29 '15 at 16:23
Well, some of them show up in a Google search for the terms.
The Disability Rights UK publication Holidays 2012 in the British Isles: A guide for disabled people uses the terms,
Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Merseyside.
North, South and West Yorkshire and the East Riding of Yorkshire and Kingston-upon- Hull districts.
South East Scotland
Edinburgh, Falkirk, the Lothians and the Scottish Borders.
The area that formed the counties of Glamorgan and Gwent including Cardiff and Swansea.
You could also look at the Wikipedia articles "List of counties of the United Kingdom" & "Regions of England", but I guess you already have.
Marius HancuMarius Hancu
These places are not counties. They are regions that have no political or administrative significance, a bit like New England, the Rocky Mountains, or the great Lakes region, would have in America. My attention was drawn to the dichotomy of whether to use capitals by another OP who asked about 'east coast*. It seems clear that a lot is left to the writers discretion. – WS2 Apr 29 '15 at 16:21

THE reason women live roughly four years longer than men in Australia is not solely down to their reduced rate of obesity, risky behaviour and smoking. According to research published today, it's down to genetics.
Both men and women have mitochondrial DNA but researchers from Monash University in Melbourne and Lancaster University in Britain found only females were immune to mutations carried in the mitochondria, which is found in every cell of the body.
This ''evolutionary quirk'' means males are more susceptible to the mutations, negatively affecting their life expectancy.
''A significant genetic difference in lifespan between men and women can be traced back to the mitochondria,'' said the Monash University evolutionary biologist Damian Dowling.
The Bureau of Statistics says a girl born today can expect to live to almost 84 while a boy is expected to live to 80.
Mitochondria are found around the nucleus of cells. Often described as the powerhouse of cells because of their responsibility for producing energy, mitochondria have also been tied to the ageing process.
While both sexes have mitochondrial DNA, only the mother passes it on to her children.
''It's this strict maternal inheritance of mitochondria that has allowed mutations to creep in to mitochondrial genes that are harmful to males, while having no simultaneous effect on females,'' Dr Dowling said.
Published in Current Biology, the study took into account the tendency for men to lead riskier lifestyles than women.

No relief yet for CBI director Ranjit Sinha in the guest list controversy, the Supreme Court has sought the assistance of the Special Public Prosecutor in the 2G case. The SC has also agreed to hear lawyer-activist Prashant Bhushan's plea on why he can't name the whistleblower who provided him the list.
The Supreme Court on Monday sought the assistance of Special Public Prosecutor in the 2G case to decide a plea filed against CBI director Ranjit Sinha in the visitors' list controversy.
The apex court directed that all the documents including the CBI's file notings and visitors' register of the director's residence be given to the SPP.
The view of the SPP has to be considered as any order by the court would have ramification in the 2G cases, the Supreme Court said.
The court also agreed to hear lawyer-activist Prashant Bhushan's plea against the SC order that he name the whistleblower who provided him the guest list. Bhushan's NGO, Centre for Public Interest Litigation (CPIL), tendered an unconditional apology before the court for its inability to reveal the name of the whistleblower.
Last week, he had informed the court that he could not name the whistleblower, as this would endanger his life.The CBI chief however argued that the identity of the mole should be disclosed before the apex court. The court will hear the case further on October 10.
Providing no relief to Ranjit Sinha, the SC turned down his plea that the case filed against him should not be heard and be dismissed. Bhushan had alleged that the visitor's list at the CBI chief's residence showed that he frequently met the accused in the 2G and coal scam cases, and hence the probes were compromised.
The CBI chief told the court that there had not been any interference by the agency in any of the probes.

Innovative technology strategies are transforming the financial services landscape. From mobile technology and process automation to blockchain and fintech alignment, these digital efforts are changing how organizations are meeting consumers' changing buying preferences and conducting business. For instance, much of the transaction processing, matching, reconciliation and moving of information between different parties will be a thing of the past. Likewise, with the growth of fintech services, many financial services organizations are faced with a new competitor, or ally. Do legacy financial services businesses replicate the disruptive technology within their own institutions or partner with fintechs to join forces through collaborative arrangements? These changes open up new opportunities to serve consumers, increase efficiencies and lower costs.
However, with opportunities and change, newer technologies and innovation can also usher in risks. Cybersecurity and data governance are two areas where financial services companies continue to struggle, especially when using third-party technology providers. Unfortunately, too often, a breach in a security-weak third-party can evolve to an enterprise-wide cyberattack resulting in costly business interruptions and reputational damage.
Keeping up to date on the advantages, risks and challenges digital transformation offers will remain important for all financial services organizations.


The Canadian Cycling Association is pleased to announce that it has entered into a public - private partnership with B2ten that will focus on the women's national track cycling program.
The initiative will deliver unique support in the areas of performance analysis and testing, while also providing the team with the training resources required to underpin top performances at the 2012 London Olympic Games.
"The expertise and resources being brought to bear in Women's Team Pursuit allow us to create a training environment for the National Team that was not previously possible," said Jacques Landry, High Performance Director and Head Coach of the CCA. "It is now up to the athletes and professional staff to take advantage of what is being made available to mount a serious challenge in London."
Six athletes, who are not currently on the national team, have been identified and targeted through initial off-track testing and assessment. These athletes will participate in a series of training camps in Los Angeles in December and January to determine the extent to which they are able to perform on the track. Under the partnership, the Canadian track cycling team will train in Los Angeles until the summer of 2012, as international calibre facilities do not currently exist in Canada.
"Track cycling races are typically won by hundredths of seconds or mere millimeters," said Anne Merklinger, Director of Summer Sport for Own the Podium. "Lending this additional support will provide Canadian athletes the resources needed to gain on the world's best and, ultimately, bring home medals for Canada."

Pueblo schools must give more authority to management group, state board says
By Nic Garcia

As local news deserts become the norm, Chalkbeat remains 100% committed to the communities we cover. Get our Colorado education stories delivered to your inbox.
The State Board of Education on Thursday gave an outside nonprofit group significant authority in efforts to improve three Pueblo schools.
The group, Achievement Network, or ANet, will have the power to determine the schools' schedules, tests, and teacher and leadership training.
The board also ordered Pueblo City Schools to submit redesign plans for two of the schools — Bessemer Elementary and Heroes Academy — under the state's innovation law. That would give the schools flexibility from some state and local policies.
A third middle school, Risley International, already has innovation status.
Thursday's final plan is not far off from what Pueblo officials had originally suggested to improve student learning. But the board, concerned with high turnover among teachers, principals and district leaders, pushed to give ANet more authority.
Pueblo officials at a meeting earlier this week described its relationship with ANet as a "partnership." But state board members challenged the idea of giving Superintendent Charlotte Macaluso, and not ANet, final say on a variety of issues.
ANet "needs to be the ultimate decision-maker," board member Joyce Rankin, a Carbondale Republican, said Wednesday.
Dalton Sprouse, a spokesman for the 17,000-student district, said officials would review the board's decision with its lawyers.
"There's still some clarification that we need. We'll be working on that throughout the day and the coming weeks," he said. "But for the most part, we're excited that we get to move forward with our innovation plans and with the partnership with have ANet."
Under Colorado law, low-performing schools and school districts that fail to improve student learning within five years face state-directed improvement plans. The state board's decision to approve the Pueblo plan was the last it will consider this year.
A year ago, Pueblo was expected to be the state's greatest challenge, with more than a dozen schools on the state's accountability watchlist for persistent low performance. A last-minute boost in test scores saved most of the city's schools — and the district itself — from state intervention. That left the three schools the state board considered Thursday.
Throughout the spring, the board directed most of the state's low-performing schools and districts to either develop an innovation plan or contract with a third-party to take over some operations of the schools or districts. In the case of Pueblo, it did both.
The state could have taken more aggressive steps, but didn't. Officials could have ordered that a charter school take over a failing school, or forced a low-performing district to either split up or merge with a nearby high-performing district
The scope of each state-ordered innovation plan and partnership agreement varies widely between school to school. Pueblo's management plan is one of the most specific about the authority the management organization has, and had the most input from the state board.
"I feel as though we've all learned together," said state board chairwoman Angelika Schroeder, a Boulder Democrat. We've tried to be true to the intent of the legislation. There's an element of faith to all of this — the commitments that are being made to us, work that is going to be done by outside vendors that is going to helpful to school districts. But I'm optimistic."
Schools and districts that met with the state board this year will have either one or two years to show improvement or face more drastic direction from the state.

Tome 4 Ceteri Medici
Edited by: Alain Touwaide
Part of the multi-volume work Greek Medical Manuscripts - Diels' Catalogues
Volume 2-4 in the series Medical Traditions
The medical literature of ancient Greece has been much studied during the 20th century, particularly from the 1970s on. In spite of this intense activity, the search for manuscripts still relies on the catalogue compiled in the early 1900s by a group of philologists led by the German historian of Greek philosophy and medicine Hermann Diels. However useful the so-called Diels has been and still is, it is now in need of a thorough revision. The present five-tome set is a first step in that direction. Tome 1 offers a reproduction of Diels' catalogue with an index of the manuscripts. The following three tomes provide a reconstruction of the texts contained in the manuscripts listed in Diels on the basis of Diels' catalogue. Proceeding as Diels did, these three tomes distinguish the manuscripts containing texts by (or attributed to) Hippocrates (tome 2), Galen (tome 3), and the other authors considered by Diels (tome 4). Tome 5 will list all the texts listed in Diels for each manuscript in the catalogue. The present work will be a reference for all scholars interested in Greek medical literature and manuscripts, in addition to historians of medicine, medical book, medical tradition, and medical culture.

Q: Mercurial authentication caching? My Mercurial server requires https authentication for pulls. How can I cache my authentication information on the client without exposing a plain-text password on disk?
I'm looking for something like using sudo with mercurial and ssh authentication but for HTTPS.

A: have you explored Mercurial keyring?
It supports HTTPS and comes bundled with the latest version of TortoiseHg. If you don't have TortoiseHg, you can install it like any other extension as well (although I recommend TortoiseHg if you're a Windows user).

A: You can put an [auth] section in your ~.hgrc:
[auth]
foo.prefix = hg.intevation.org/mercurial
foo.username = foo
foo.password = bar
foo.schemes = http https

Or you can always use a URL with authentication info in it, which is as valid in mercurial as it is in your web browser's URL bar:
http://user:pass@host.com/path/to/repo/

which you'd put in your repo's .hg/hgrc file's [path] section.
