Stories of this Canadian girl's adventures exploring Europe & beyond...join me!
bath, somerset...5 must-sees and a mistress named popjoy
The honey-coloured houses welcomed me first, as I left the train station and began the walk through town to the inn we were going to be staying in for one night in Bath.
An easy 1.5 hour train ride, this day trip from London should be on your list, not just because it's a pretty town, but because it is full of the most interesting history going way, way back.
Pubs are ubiquitous here, and with names like 'The Raven', The Griffin', 'Home of the best pie!', 'Local Ales!' they offer the most wonderful invitations to stay and rest for a while, which we happily took advantage of every 2 hours or so.
A large plaque caught my attention in the centre of town, dedicated to Beau Nash. With a mistress named Juliana Popjoy how can anything go wrong? The so-called 'King of Bath', Nash and his mistress, Miss Popjoy (could there be a better name for a mistress?), ruled the town in the late 1700's.
The organized "entertainments" and made Bath the 'it' place to be, not just for its healing waters, but for fashion and fun. It is said that Miss Popjoy's ghost occasionally pops by (pardon the pun) to check if guests of Bath are being entertained to the degree she and Beau Nash would have approved of, over 200 years before.
So, in order that you are as entertained as I was on my recent visit (no mistresses involved), here are the five must-sees in Bath, along with a little story:
Royal Crescent
The Royal Crescent is where I experienced Jane Austen. I could absolutely imagine her walking the lawns overlooking Bath, and the hilly countryside, as she contemplated her next book or wrote her sister letters. The Crescent was never her address in Bath, when she began spending time here in the late 18th century. Her family didn't have the means for such a home (few do), but the energy here feels romantic and storybook...just like Jane.
A fascinating architectural feature of the Royal Crescent is the uniform, terraced housing which one sees from the front, which completely betrays the chaos and unevenness from the back. This design is apparently common in Bath and bears the whimsical name of "Queen Anne fronts and Mary-Anne backs".
Add to this the fact that the sloping lawns in front of the crescent are cut by a ha-ha, and Bath could really be straight out of a novel (not surprising that it's the setting for so many). A ha-ha is an actual term for the ditch, which on one side is a steep slope of lawn, betraying the other side which is a stone wall. The effect is one of a continuous green slope. Ha-ha!
Much quieter than, say, Piccadilly Circus, this circus on the north-end of Bath, easily walkable from the centre of town, is a residential square...but yet a circle...and surely not for your normal resident. A completely round circle of elegant townhouses, with 3 entrances into in, the circus was designed in the mid-1700's by John Wood, to mimic Stonehenge.
The Royal Baths
Be prepared to spend quite a bit of time here if you are inspired by the stories of the past, like way in the past (AD 43). The 3D holographs which appear in the many excavated rooms of the bath describe in detail the normal routines of the Romans, and the importance of these communal places... to catch-up with each other, to visit and share experiences, to rest and rejuvenate together, through hot, cold and healing waters.
At the end of the self-guided tour you can taste the earthy, mineral water for yourself and ponder the worth which was placed upon it over the past hundreds, if not, thousands of years. There was even a Royal Mineral Water Hospital!
Founded in the 7th century, the Bath Abbey is home to thousands of people who were buried under the cathedral's stone floor, with over 800 stone tiles dedicated to prominent city members hundreds of years old. The current abbey, which sits on the remains of a Norman cathedral, has been undergoing gentle excavations and reconstruction in order to stabilize the ground beneath, which has deteriorated due to the crumbling bones of upwards of 6000 people. Walking over the engraved stone floor, I felt like a trespasser, treading upon the gravestones of long-gone souls.
Pulteney Bridge across the River Avon
I saved the best for last, in my opinion. As you walk across the bridge it feels like you're walking along a cute lane, with quaint storefronts and a tourist or two (huh!). But, peeking around the side and looking over the waist-high stone wall, you see a construction so beautiful, with the greenest of waters flowing beneath its rounded arches. And, then there is the River Avon...which brings every book-lover's heart to swoon.
Now, back to Miss Popjoy, because I just can't resist. Her paramour, Beau Nash, was a dandy. This is a word that we should absolutely bring back into colloquial language. Do you know what the definition of a 'dandy' is? I didn't! But, oh does it make me laugh.
A dandy, historically, is a man who places particular importance upon physical appearance, refined language, and leisurely hobbies, pursued with the appearance of nonchalance in a cult of self. (wikipedia)
Mostly, a dandy was a man pretending to be more than he was...an impersonator of the upper classes while actually coming from a much lower class. Essentially, a betrayer...a ha-ha.
By all accounts, Beau Nash was the Kanye West of his time. A fashion innovator, a host of great balls and parties, a bundle of chaos mixing himself up in politics, nobility and the normal folk, and crossing boundaries and pushing limits. Nash was bewondered by many, achieving a high-flying life of women and influence, leaving his last mistress so distraught upon his death that she lived most of her remaining years in a hollowed-out tree. Now, that is what I call leaving a mark on someone! Alas, Miss Popjoy was joyful no longer.
Either along the cute lanes, among the imposing historical sights, or inside the cozy pubs, a trip to Bath will no doubt leave you entertained, and possibly even inspired.
- For tickets from London Paddington to Bath Spa - 1.5 hour trip one-way www.trainline.com
- Bath is very walkable, with all the sites easily reachable on foot. You don't really need a hop-on, hop-off bus or tour. Stop for a pinto or pie in any of the great pubs whenever you need a refreshment
- If you stay the night, I highly recommend The Griffin Inn...so cozy, with excellent pub fare, run by super-nice people www.thegriffinbath.co.uk
- Where to eat, The Raven has the best pies (IMO) having won awards for them! And it has the coolest history. Ale and pie...what could be better! www.theravenofbath.co.uk
- We skipped going into the thermal bath in Bath, because let's face it, it's super expensive (36 Pounds for hours, on a weekday). So, we toured the Roman Baths instead (18 Pounds, on a weekday), and were not disappointed! It was an incredible experience, so interesting and pretty. So, if you have to pick one or the other, go with the original :) www.romanbaths.co.uk

How Managers can keep women in Engineering
/ 28 June /
The under-representation of women in Science, Technology and Engineering (STEM) remains a worrying trend globally. This gender disparity is particularly evident in Engineering where women make up only about 10% of the workforce in the UK, the lowest in Europe.
It is generally agreed that this imbalance stems from a lack of interest of young females in STEM. Yet, perhaps an even bigger problem is the seeming inability of the Engineering space to retain a good number of females who venture in the area.
Hence, beyond efforts made to improve the involvement of young females in Engineering, it has become necessary to make the workplace more appealing for female engineers. A good first step to achieving this is to kill gender stereotype in the workplace.
Thanks to many years of male dominance in engineering, it is very common for the technical skills of female engineers to be frequently questioned. Men tend to take on the intense part of a project while females are left to deal with the less demanding and unexciting stuff regardless of their skill level. This sad trend that often leave women feeling incompetent and unmotivated can be traced back to the social conditioning in our homes and schools.
According to this HBR survey, Rachel had this to say about her experience as an engineering intern. "One thing that really bugs me about being an intern and a young girl is that the people whom I work with don't take me seriously. Not everyone does this, but a fair amount of the older men in my working environment treat me like I know nothing."
Yet females maybe even more than their male counterparts, desire to have a strong sense of purpose in their career. This is why managers must put in extra work to change the culture of gender stereotyping that is typically present in the workplace. Female engineers should be given a chance to work on challenging projects that can help them improve their skills and boost their confidence.
Also, in an environment where female engineers constantly strive to prove themselves, It is not unusual for them to often doubt their own skills when faced with challenging technical tasks. It is, therefore, necessary that the system in the workplace supports women by providing frequent feedbacks without undue criticisms whilst also giving them room to stretch themselves and build confidence.
It is also important that organisations make deserving females visible in the workplace by putting them in leadership positions. This can be a great source of motivation for newer female employees who join the workforce --knowing that there are women at the helm who successfully combine their societal responsibilities as females with their careers, can help warm their psyche and help them feel at home. This is, in turn, will translate into better work performance and reduce the likelihood of losing more female engineers.
In the end, every business will benefit from having a fine mix of male and female employees-- gender diverse teams have been proven to perform better. Hence creating a conducive environment for females to thrive in the workplace should be a priority for every serious organisation.

High asset divorce for Lauer after "Today" show departure
On behalf of The Law Office of Jennifer J. McCaskill, LLC | May 17, 2018 | High Asset Divorce
Many New Jersey residents are aware of the ongoing divorce between former television host Matt Lauer and his wife of 20 years, Annette Roque. The couple split following allegations against Lauer of inappropriate sexual behavior within his workplace. Those accusations also led to his departure from a lucrative position as longtime host of the "Today" show, as well as a high asset divorce.
The couple have weathered previous marital difficulties. Roque file for divorce in 2006, but withdrew that petition a mere three weeks later. Reports suggest she also considered divorce in 2014. It appears that the recent allegations of sexual improprieties became the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back.
As they navigate their divorce, the parties will need to come to terms on how to divide their significant fortune. It's estimated that Matt Lauer earned in excess of $100 million over his time at NBC. In recent years, his salary was rumored to be nearly $25 million per year. The couple own three homes, and also have minor children.
There is no mention of a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement in place, which leaves the parties to negotiate the terms of their high asset divorce. Very often, celebrity couples reach an agreement outside of court to avoid their information becoming part of public record. However, there are also instances in which a couple simply cannot come to terms, and must turn to the court for guidance on property division and child custody matters. If that is the outcome in this case, New Jersey residents may learn far more about Matt Lauer's role as husband as well as his financial standing both prior to and after his television career.

Trump rushed to John Hopkins with severe burns
Donald Trump is said to be in a stable but critical condition this morning after being rushed to hospital suffering from self inflicted third degree burns to almost half of his body.
Fact checking website Politico said;
"It's hardly surprising that Donald's pants caught on fire at the debate last night. We checked and more than 50% of what he said was a complete lie, 45% of what he said was, if we're charitable, half true and 5% was actually true. Trousers can't deal with that kind of heat, we're lucky nobody else got burned."
It seems the fire started when Donald was asked what his position had been on the war in Iraq. Donald said he was against it. When the moderator Lester Holt had stopped laughing he said;
"The only time when you spoke publicly about the Iraq war was on Howard Stern's radio show and you said you were in favour of it."
To which Donald replied;
*whoomp*
Unfortunately Mr Drumpf is expected to make a full recovery and is currently having skin grafted to his buttocks taken from his enormous ego.

It's not so long time ago we've posted a blog about technical benefits of JPEG2000 and how it could be integrated with Adobe Premiere as a plugin.
We at Comprimato seen a lot of interest in such use of JPEG2000 for post-production or video editing. Especially how to enable local UltraHD video editing when your CPU, GPU, memory or disk IO is the limiting factor. Thanks to JPEG2000 format, we were able to convert theory into Adobe Premiere Pro (and Nuke Foundry VFX) JPEG2000 plugin which allows resolution switching in real-time. You can open any JPEG2000 image sequence or MXF in JPEG2000 and then use the Adobe UI below to control actual resolution of the video during playback or seek.
The effect of this plugin is simple. You can open master 4K, VR or even 8K which you can't normally play smoothly in Premiere, then select 1/2 (or lower) resolution and do your post-production work with video in 2K or HD smoothly. All the changes you make during editing/VFX will be obviously applied to the original master file only. There is no need of proxy-file rendering or additonal disk storage space and it's all done in real-time. The tool reads only data realated to the particular resolution when playing or seeking, but it can instantly show video in full resolution when paused.
What if my video master is not in JPEG2000?
We are already running beta program for some time and now we are opening it to the wider audience. We would like to see how users work with this tool, how much it helps and if there are any new features to add or issues to fix.
If you're working with 4K video but you don't have a fast enough hardware for it, or if you would like to edit 4K even on MackBook Air, our plugin could be the answer for your problem. The beta program is for free, so give it a chance and sign up today.
Can we expect this plugin for Davinci Resolve ?
Davinci Resolve is on our roadmap. I can't commit to specific date yet by now but we would like to add such support. What is the type and format of the video you're currently working with?
yes we will be at NAB.

Serving suggestion: serve with salad for a light and healthy snack, or with pasta for a more substantial meal.


Made a few tools for myself this weekend. On the left is a carver's mallet that I turned on the lathe from a piece of red oak firewood I had laying around. I forgot how much I love using the lathe! I'm going to have to make some more projects on that soon. Later that morning Carter came out to the shop and asked me to teach her how to turn a pen. I forgot to take a photo of it though - hopefully I'll take one soon and post it here. The second photo shows a pair of hand planes I made this weekend. The bigger one is a standard block plane made from cherry with a bubinga sole and a walnut wedge. The smaller one is a chamfer plane made from hard maple (center) and morado (cheeks). For that one, I even made the blade myself from some O1 tool steel. I still need to cut the wedge down a little shorter on that one - it's pretty tall right now. I've also got a long jack plane that I'm working on, but it's not finished quite yet.
I don't drink, but I like the idea of craft beer. Recently I found out that there are lots of small bottlers that make root beer in the bottle, and I've been sampling all of the ones I can find locally. I think I've tried about twelve different types so far. My favorite to date is probably Bulldog (9th from the left). The weirdest one so far is the Bundaberg (the short, stout bottle - 2nd from the right) - it was really fruity. I found a cool place online called "The Root Beer Store" that stocks more than 100 varieties at reasonable prices - the only issue is the shipping is a killer. Glass bottles filled with liquid are just really expensive to ship. Which is too bad - but for now I'll just stick to what I can find around here.
I built this keepsake box recently as a proof-of-concept for an idea I saw online. The top is some burl veneer (I don't remember the species), the main body of the box is black walnut, and the skirt and legs are curly maple. Inside, if you look carefully you'll find a tiny hole. Poke something into that hole (like a paperclip) and one end of the skirt will pop out - revealing a secret drawer below the false bottom.
A few weekends ago Lori, the kids and I met my sister and her kids at Bedrock Gardens, in Nottingham, NH. This place was really cool - I wish I had taken more pictures. It's basically a 20-acre garden in the middle of the woods, with all kinds of sculptures everywhere you look. They're only open two weekends a month - we'll have to get back there sometime and take more photos.
This little project uses a Raspberry Pi and an 8x8 Neopixel grid from Adafruit. I've got some scripts running on it that let me control it via the Amazon Echo. We can say things like "switch the mood lamp to green", for example It's working, but I still need to come up with a way to keep the port served up permanently - right now I would need to log into it and restart the server any time we lose the power.
We've got a friend who paints, and she gave us this painting recently. I made the frame for it out of a piece of walnut that hand a big knot in it, that I haven't been able to figure out what to do with. It worked perfectly for this project. This is now hanging in our bedroom.
After shopping for a bluetooth speaker lately and being somewhat shocked with the prices of anything better than a toy, I decided to try building my own. This one is made of oak and mahogany, and has a 4 inch full-range driver. I found an off-the-shelf little board (for around $20 or so) that handles all of the bluetooth details. It sounds great. The range is a little low, but that may have to do with having to receive through 3/4 of a inch of red oak. I can probably only get around 10 feet away and still have it work - but I can live with that. We put it on this shelf in our living room. It really looks pretty nice over there.
I built this shelf a few weeks ago, based on one I saw online while surfing for inspiration. I love how this design provides lots of little nooks and crannies, with varying elevations for displaying things. We've been slowly acquiring things to put on it as we come across them - we've still got room for more, but we're in no rush. All of the joints are reinforced with biscuits - which a couple of the joints really hard to get together. I actually broke one joint while trying to assemble it, but I was able to repair it and if you didn't know where to look for it you'd probably never see it.

Q: Yii Framework: Empty variables after form validation fails I have a form with two input text fields:
<input id="ModelName_test_0" name="ModelName[test][0]" type="text">
<input id="ModelName_test_1" name="ModelName[test][1]" type="text">

These input fields get generated with the following commands:
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'test[0]'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'test[1]'); ?>

Now, when I submit the form I see the values in the POST request. However, when the form submit fails then I can not get the values back into the input fields. Printing the model it shows that there are no values for $test; - is this because $test is an array in the form?
Even after the validation all values are still assigned to the variables:
if($model->validate()) {
   echo "
";
   print_r($_POST);
   return;
}

This returns:
[ModelName] => Array
        (
            [test] => Array
                (
                    [0] => myFirstInputField
                    [1] => mySecondInputField
                )
        )

So the values are in the POST but after the failed validation they are gone and I get empty variables:
[ModelName] => Array
        (
            [test] =>
        )

The variable test is declared safe in the validation rules.
What I want to achieve is:
If the validation fails put the entered values back into the appropriate input text fields.
Any pointers in the right direction would be helpful :)

A: The problem is, that CHtml::activeTextField expects a model and one of its attributes as parameters. If the attribute is named test then have $form->textField($model,'test');. After your form is submitted, either test doesn't have any values or it is an array (check this to confirm, either echoing it's value or doing a print_r on $model->attributes).

A: I found this article on the yiiframework.com website which helped me solving this issue: http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/form.table
This is the sample code which you would put it your controller:
public function actionBatchUpdate()
{
    // retrieve items to be updated in a batch mode
    // assuming each item is of model class 'Item'
    $items=$this->getItemsToUpdate();
    if(isset($_POST['Item']))
    {
        $valid=true;
        foreach($items as $i=>$item)
        {
            if(isset($_POST['Item'][$i]))
                $item->attributes=$_POST['Item'][$i];
            $valid=$item->validate() && $valid;
        }
        if($valid)  // all items are valid
            // ...do something here
    }
    // displays the view to collect tabular input
    $this->render('batchUpdate',array('items'=>$items));
}

And this is what the view would look like:

<?php echo CHtml::beginForm(); ?>

Name	Price	Count	Description

<?php foreach($items as $i=>$item): ?>

<?php echo CHtml::activeTextField($item,"[$i]name"); ?>
<?php echo CHtml::activeTextField($item,"[$i]price"); ?>
<?php echo CHtml::activeTextField($item,"[$i]count"); ?>
<?php echo CHtml::activeTextArea($item,"[$i]description"); ?>

<?php endforeach; ?>

<?php echo CHtml::submitButton('Save'); ?>
<?php echo CHtml::endForm(); ?>

Both code snippets are taken from yiiframework.com where you can find more details on how to use 'Tabular Inputs': http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/form.table

Manuel Antonio National Park is famous for its large areas of unspoiled rainforest, teaming with rare wildlife and plants, and offering hiking, mountain biking, and many other ways to enjoy the outdoors. The park slopes down to sandy beaches and warm clear waters, where the rainforest meets the coast, and here you can enjoy surfing or simply watch colorful fish swimming around your ankles. Nearby, the small village offers the change to enjoy laid back Costa Rican life, with friendly local bars and restaurants which open until late.
Manuel Antonio Beach has long stretches of sand, clear turquoise seas, and the backdrop of the rainforest's huge palm trees. The beach never gets too crowded, and along the shore you'll see people fishing, surfing, or snorkeling along the coral reefs. Occasionally, you'll see monkeys popping out of the forest, looking to steal treats from tourist's bags, or nibbling on star fruit found in the trees. At the Finca Naturales Wildlife Refuge, you'll see all sorts of endangered species rescued from the local area, from sloths to anteaters, poison dart frogs to squirrel monkeys, and along the palm tree lined walkways you'll be able to see these creatures up close, in their natural habitat. Thrillseekers will love the ADR Adventure Park, where you can zipline through tumbling waterfalls, climb up rock faces to enjoy the rainforest views, or take the Tarzan swing across a canyon. All safety equipment such as harnesses are provided, so you'll have safe, yet wild fun.
You'll enjoy a wide choice of Manuel Antonio hotels and resorts, which combine modern facilities with the beauty of the rainforest location. You'll find hotels with treetop suites and apartments, so you have all the facilities you need while on vacation, as well as extras such as free WiFi, complimentary breakfasts, and free parking. Many hotels offer outdoor pools, as well as full service spas, private beaches, and secluded gardens where you can simply relax. You'll also find resorts that have their own restaurants and bars on-site, as well as offering childcare services, airport shuttles, and daily housekeeping.
The village of Manuel Antonio has been built along the steep cliffs, with tall, colorful buildings set close together. The streets are narrow and winding, with souvenir stalls set along the roads in-between the tall palm trees. There are tour guides everywhere, trying to grab your attention and sell you a tour to one of the many natural attractions, and stalls selling fruit freshly plucked from the trees. There's a small selection of restaurants in Manuel Antonio, with freshly caught seafood, and traditional dishes of rice and beans to fill you up after a long day of exploring.
Quepos La Managua Airport is just a 15 minute drive from Manuel Antonio, and has regular services to San José, as well as Arenal, Golfito, and some other domestic destinations. You can pick up a taxi to your hotel, or book a private shuttle to get you from the airport to your hotel in minutes. A cheaper, if slower, option is to take one of the many buses from San José, with the journey by road taking 4 to 5 hours, although offering spectacular views and a unique experience. Manuel Antonio can also be reached from other cities, with the buses bookable online and offering door to door journeys.
