\section{Introduction}
Which theory is the most beautiful one to explain the late-time cosmological acceleration? Dark energy, e.g., quintessence \cite{Caldwell1998} or phantom \cite{Caldwell2002}, is a simple model. However, this mysterious matter is undetectable in the local gravitational systems, and thus, its existence lacks direct verification. Modified gravity is also a good candidate (see \cite{Capozziello2011,Nojiri2011,Clifton2012,Nojiri2017} for reviews). One can couple new fields to the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian or add higher-order geometric terms to the action. But current mainstream modified gravities are not good enough to replace Einstein's theory. The problems come from observations and aesthetics. Many simple models, e.g., $f(R)=R+\alpha R^2$ theory, can be directly ruled out by observations \cite{Clifton2012}. In order to fit all known observations, one has to construct complex structures for the Lagrangian, e.g., the Hu-Sawicki model \cite{Hu2007}. This always makes the theory not so charming, even though it fits the data well. Another aesthetics problem is that, in order to explain the late-time acceleration, classical theories generally need a parameter related to the Hubble constant $H_0$. This may be a potential factor that makes theories suffer from the coincidence problem. We believe if a pure geometric gravity does not introduce any $H_0$-related parameters into the Lagrangian and can behave well in various gravitational applications, then it is comparable to previous theories.

Pure fourth-order gravity \cite{Tian2018} seems to be a good choice. However, combined with Eq. (8) and Eq. (27) in \cite{Tian2018} and $\rho_0=\mathcal{O}(H_0^2/G)$ from dimensional analysis, we obtain $\sigma_i=\mathcal{O}(c/H_0)$, which is inconsistent with the explanation of \cite{Tian2018} that $\sigma_i$ is the size of fundamental particles. Deser-Woodard nonlocal gravity \cite{Deser2007} is a pure geometric theory and only introduces dimensionless parameters in the Lagrangian. This theory could explain the late-time acceleration, but gives $\Psi\neq\Phi$ in the weak field limit [see metric (\ref{eq:04}) for the meaning of $\Phi$ and $\Psi$] for the general formalism \cite{Koivisto2008}. The Cassini mission gives $\Psi/\Phi=1+(2.1\pm2.3)\times10^{-5}$ in the Solar system \cite{Bertotti2003}, and recently, $\Psi=\Phi$ has been confirmed at the Galaxy scale \cite{Collett2018}. We believe a good gravity theory should give $\Psi$ that exactly equals, not close, to $\Phi$ \footnote{Similar to $f(R)=R+f_1R^2+f_2R^3$ theory, setting $f_1=0$ in \cite{Koivisto2008} is not a good way to achieve this goal. Otherwise, one has to analyze the weak field limit on a more complex background, e.g., a de Sitter metric.}. One thing should be mentioned here, the Deser-Woodard nonlocal gravity could suppress the growth rate of a large scale structure formation \cite{Nersisyan2017b,Park2018}, which is in better agreement with observations, and this good property may be related to the fact that $\Psi\neq\Phi$ in the Deser-Woodard theory. If we require $\Psi=\Phi$, we may lose this merit. However, $\Psi\neq\Phi$ in modified gravities may not be the necessary condition to suppress the growth rate. Generally, the evolution equations of cosmological scalar perturbation in modified gravities and general relativity should be different. It is reasonable that different evolution equations give different growth rates. In this paper, we focus on constructing a gravity theory that not only explains the late-time acceleration, but also gives $\Psi=\Phi$ in the weak field limit. Detailed analysis of the large scale structure formation for the new theory will be presented in future works.

To our knowledge, the $\Psi=\Phi$ issue has not been discussed in the follow-up works on the Deser-Woodard nonlocal gravity (recent developments can be found in \cite{Deser2013,Maggiore2014,Nersisyan2016,Nersisyan2017a,Nersisyan2017b,Park2018,Vardanyan2018,Narain2018,Kumar2018} and references therein). In this paper, similar to the pure fourth-order gravity, we will construct a new nonlocal theory that makes $\Psi=\Phi$ through the combination of scalar and tensor modifications. In addition, we will present comprehensive calculations on the weak field limit, gravitational waves, and cosmology for the new theory. We take same the conventions as \cite{Tian2018}.

\section{Field equations}
The action takes the form
\begin{equation}
  S=\int\dx^4x\sqrt{-g}\mathcal{L}_G+S_{\rm m}.
\end{equation}
where $\delta S_{\rm m}=-\int\dx^4x\sqrt{-g}T_{\mu\nu}\delta g^{\mu\nu}/2$ and $T_{\mu\nu}=(\rho+p/c^2)u_\mu u_\nu+pg_{\mu\nu}$ for the perfect fluid. We start from the following Lagrangian:
\begin{gather}
  \mathcal{L}_G=\frac{1}{2\zeta}\left(\alpha_1R+\alpha_2R\Box^{-1}R+\alpha_3R_{\mu\nu}\Box^{-1}R^{\mu\nu}\right),
\end{gather}
where $\zeta$ is the spacetime-matter coupling constant, $\alpha_i$ is dimensionless parameter, and $\Box$ is d'Alembert operator. Without loss of generality, we can fix one parameter. However, in order to facilitate the discussions on completely abandoning Einstein-Hilbert action, we restore all $\alpha_i$. Note that the above Lagrangian can be regarded as a special case of \cite{Nersisyan2017a}. However, our motivations and work details are completely different. $\Psi=\Phi$ is our core, and this is not mentioned in \cite{Nersisyan2017a}. In addition, \cite{Nersisyan2017a} shows that a general tensor nonlocal modification will lead to an instability problem in the evolution of the Universe. But the tensor part $R_{\mu\nu}\Box^{-1}R^{\mu\nu}$ that we are considering does not bring the instability problem to the theory \cite{Nersisyan2017a}. In the Lagrangian, $R_{\mu\nu\rho\lambda}\Box^{-1}R^{\mu\nu\rho\lambda}$ is unnecessary because of Eq. (6) in \cite{Nersisyan2017a}. Variation of the action with respect to the metric gives the field equations
\begin{widetext}
\begin{align}\label{eq:03}
  &\alpha_1G_{\mu\nu}+\alpha_2\left[2g_{\mu\nu}R-2\nabla_\mu\nabla_\nu U+2UG_{\mu\nu}+(\nabla_\mu U)(\nabla_\nu U)-\frac{g_{\mu\nu}}{2}(\nabla^\lambda U)(\nabla_\lambda U)\right]\nonumber\\
  &+\alpha_3\left[R_{\mu\nu}+g_{\mu\nu}\nabla_\alpha\nabla_\beta U^{\alpha\beta}
  -\nabla_\mu\nabla_\alpha U^{\alpha}_{\ \nu}
  -\nabla_\nu\nabla_\alpha U^{\alpha}_{\ \mu}
  +2U^{\alpha\beta}R_{\mu\alpha\nu\beta}
  -\frac{g_{\mu\nu}}{4}\Box(U_{\alpha\beta}U^{\alpha\beta})
  -\frac{g_{\mu\nu}}{2}R_{\alpha\beta}U^{\alpha\beta}\right.\nonumber\\
  &\left.+(\nabla_\nu U_{\alpha\beta})(\nabla_\mu U^{\alpha\beta})
  +\nabla_\alpha(U^{\alpha\beta}\nabla_\nu U_{\mu\beta}+U^{\alpha\beta}\nabla_\mu U_{\nu\beta}
  -U_{\mu\beta}\nabla_\nu U^{\alpha\beta}-U_{\nu\beta}\nabla_\mu U^{\alpha\beta})\right]
  =\zeta T_{\mu\nu},
\end{align}
\end{widetext}
where $U_{\mu\nu}=\Box^{-1}R_{\mu\nu}$, or in a localized form $\Box U_{\mu\nu}=R_{\mu\nu}$, and $U=U^\mu_{\ \mu}$. One thing should be mentioned here, $U_{\mu\nu}$ is not a new tensor field, but a nonlocal form of the spacetime geometry. Energy and momentum conservation can be directly derived from Eq. (\ref{eq:03}).

\section{Meeting observations}
As a primary requirement, the new scalar-tensor nonlocal gravity should be able to explain the main phenomena in the Solar system (Newton's gravity and $\Psi=\Phi$), gravitational waves (speed), and cosmology (the late-time acceleration).

\subsection{Weak field limit}
A metric gravity theory should recover Newton's law of gravitation in the weak field approximation \footnote{In this paper, we do not consider MOND [M. Milgrom, \href{http://dx.doi.org/10.1086/161130}{Astrophys. J. {\bf 270}, 365 (1983)}] things.}. Furthermore, considering the observational constraints \cite{Bertotti2003,Collett2018}, we demand that the theory gives $\Psi=\Phi$ for the following perturbed line element:
\begin{equation}\label{eq:04}
  \dx s^2=-c^2(1+2\Phi/c^2)\dx t^2+(1-2\Psi/c^2)\dx\mathbf{r}^2.
\end{equation}
The background is the Minkowski metric, in which $R_{\mu\nu}=0$. Therefore, we can choose $U_{\mu\nu}=0$ for the background. In the weak field limit, i.e., in metric (\ref{eq:04}), $\Phi$ and $\Psi$ are first-order infinitesimals. Omitting the second-order infinitesimals, we obtain $R_{00}=\nabla^2\Phi$ and so on for metric (\ref{eq:04}), where $\nabla^2$ is the Laplace operator. Taking into account $\Box U_{\mu\nu}=R_{\mu\nu}$, we know $R_{\mu\nu}$ and $U_{\mu\nu}$ should be regarded as first-order infinitesimals in the weak field limit. This makes terms like $UG_{\mu\nu}$ to be second-order infinitesimals and can be ignored in Eq. (\ref{eq:03}). So the field equations can be written as $\alpha_1G_{\mu\nu}+\alpha_2\left[2g_{\mu\nu}R-2\nabla_\mu\nabla_\nu U\right]
+\alpha_3\left[R_{\mu\nu}+g_{\mu\nu}U_0-\nabla_\mu\nabla_\alpha U^{\alpha}_{\ \nu}-\nabla_\nu\nabla_\alpha U^{\alpha}_{\ \mu}\right]=\zeta T_{\mu\nu}$, where $U_0=\nabla_\alpha\nabla_\beta U^{\alpha\beta}$.

Contraction of the field equations gives
\begin{equation}\label{eq:05}
  -\alpha_1R+6\alpha_2R+\alpha_3(R+2U_0)=\zeta T,
\end{equation}
where we have used $\Box U=R$. Because Christoffel symbols vanish at the Minkowski background, we have $\nabla_\mu({\rm tensor})=\p_\mu({\rm tensor})$ except for the metric tensor $g_{\mu\nu}$. The source is assumed to be static \cite{Tian2018}, which implies $\nabla_0({\rm function})=\p_0({\rm function})=0$ for the left side of field equations. Thus, the $00$ component gives
\begin{equation}\label{eq:06}
  \alpha_1G_{00}+2\alpha_2\bar{g}_{00}R+\alpha_3(R_{00}+\bar{g}_{00}U_0)=\zeta T_{00},
\end{equation}
where a bar means background. In addition, $\nabla_\mu({\rm tensor})=\p_\mu({\rm tensor})$ means the covariant derivative indices are commutable, i.e., $\nabla_\mu\nabla_\nu({\rm tensor})=\nabla_\nu\nabla_\mu({\rm tensor})$. Applying this to $\Box U^{\mu\nu}=R^{\mu\nu}$, we obtain $\nabla_\mu\nabla_\nu R^{\mu\nu}=\nabla_\mu\nabla_\nu\Box U^{\mu\nu}=\Box(\nabla_\mu\nabla_\nu U^{\mu\nu})=\Box U_0$. The Bianchi identity gives $\nabla_\nu R^{\mu\nu}=\nabla^\mu R/2$, and then $\nabla_\mu\nabla_\nu R^{\mu\nu}=\Box R/2$. So, $\Box(U_0-R/2)=0$. In the static case, the general spherically symmetric solution for $\Box({\rm function})=0$ is $c_1+c_2/r$, where $c_i$ is constant. We expect the mass element has negligible effect on the areas far away from it. This boundary condition at infinity, which has been widely used to eliminate the increasing mode in the classical massive gravity's Newtonian approximation \cite{Clifton2012}, gives $c_1=0$ [note that a nonzero $c_1$ means a term almost similar to the cosmological constant appears in Eq. (\ref{eq:06})]. As we analyze the weak field limit, all functions should be analytical in the whole space. This condition requires $c_2=0$ \cite{Tian2018}. Then we obtain
\begin{equation}\label{eq:07}
  U_0=R/2.
\end{equation}
For the source, the only nonzero energy-momentum tensor is $T_{00}=\rho c^4$, and the trace $T=-\rho c^2$ \cite{Tian2018}.

Substituting metric (\ref{eq:04}) into Eqs. (\ref{eq:05})--(\ref{eq:07}), and eliminating $\rho$ and $U_0$, we obtain
\begin{equation}
  (\alpha_1-8\alpha_2-3\alpha_3)\nabla^2\Psi=(\alpha_1-4\alpha_2-\alpha_3)\nabla^2\Phi.
\end{equation}
If $2\alpha_2+\alpha_3=0$, then $\nabla^2\Psi=\nabla^2\Phi$, i.e., $\Psi=\Phi+c_1+c_2/r$ for the spherically symmetric case. The boundary conditions at infinity (perturbations vanish at infinity) and $r=0$ (perturbations are nondivergent in the whole space) require $c_i=0$. So, $2\alpha_2+\alpha_3=0$ gives $\Psi=\Phi$ in the weak field limit. This result also means $\Psi\neq\Phi$ in the general Deser-Woodard nonlocal gravity. Substituting $\alpha_2=-\alpha_3/2$ and $\Psi=\Phi$ into Eq. (\ref{eq:06}), we obtain
\begin{equation}
  2(\alpha_1+\alpha_3)\nabla^2\Phi=\zeta\rho c^4.
\end{equation}
Comparing with Poisson's equation $\nabla^2\Phi=4\pi G\rho$, we obtain $\zeta=8(\alpha_1+\alpha_3)\pi G/c^4$. For the case $\{\alpha_1=0,\alpha_2=-1/2,\alpha_3=1\}$, $\zeta=8\pi G/c^4$. In this case that completely abandons the Einstein-Hilbert action, there are no unknown parameters appearing in the Lagrangian. As we soon see, this simple case also behaves well in gravitational waves and cosmology.

\subsection{Gravitational waves}
Here we focus on the speed of gravitational waves. Observations give tight bounds on the graviton mass and the absolute speed \cite{GW150914,GW170817}. We expect that the new theory gives the speed of gravitational waves equal to $c$. Similar to the $f(R)=R+\alpha R^2$ theory \cite{Liang2017}, the contraction of the vacuum field equations is enough for this analysis. For simplicity, we choose the background to be a Minkowski metric. But the boundary condition at infinity used in the weak field limit analysis is unavailable here, and thus, Eq. (\ref{eq:07}) is unavailable. What we can obtain is just $\Box(U_0-R/2)=0$. Applying $\Box$ to Eq. (\ref{eq:05}), and setting $T=0$ and $\alpha_2=-\alpha_3/2$, we obtain
\begin{equation}
  (\alpha_1+\alpha_3)\Box R=0.
\end{equation}
This means no massive polarization exists and the speed of gravitational waves equal to $c$ in the new theory.

\subsection{Cosmology}
Here we focus on the flat homogeneous isotropic universe, which can be described by the flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker metric,
\begin{equation}\label{eq:11}
  \dx s^2=-c^2\dx t^2+a^2\dx\mathbf{r}^2.
\end{equation}
The energy-momentum tensor $T_{00}=\rho c^4$, $T_{0i}=0$, and $T_{ij}=\delta_{ij}pa^2$. We assume
\begin{equation}\label{eq:12}
  U_{\mu\nu}={\rm diag}(f_1c^2,f_2a^2,f_2a^2,f_2a^2),
\end{equation}
where $f_i=f_i(t)$. Substituting metric (\ref{eq:11}) and Eq. (\ref{eq:12}) into $\Box U_{\mu\nu}=R_{\mu\nu}$, we obtain
\begin{align}
  -\ddot{f}_1-3H\dot{f}_1+6H^2f_1+6H^2f_2&=-3\frac{\ddot{a}}{a},\label{eq:13} \\
  -\ddot{f}_2-3H\dot{f}_2+2H^2f_2+2H^2f_1&=2H^2+\frac{\ddot{a}}{a},\label{eq:14}
\end{align}
where $\dot{}\equiv\dx/\dx t$ and $H\equiv\dot{a}/a$. The above equations show $f_i$ is dimensionless. Substituting metric (\ref{eq:11}) and Eq. (\ref{eq:12}) into Eq. (\ref{eq:03}), we obtain
\begin{widetext}
\begin{align}
  &3\alpha_1H^2+\alpha_2\left(2\ddot{f}_1-6\ddot{f}_2-12H^2+\frac{9}{2}\dot{f}_2^2+\frac{1}{2}\dot{f}_1^2
  -12\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}-3\dot{f}_1\dot{f}_2-6H^2f_1+18H^2f_2\right)
  +\alpha_3\left(\frac{3}{2}\dot{f}_2^2+\frac{1}{2}\dot{f}_1^2+\ddot{f}_1\right.\nonumber\\
  &-3\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}-\frac{3}{2}Hf_1\dot{f}_1-\frac{9}{2}Hf_2\dot{f}_2
  +12H^2f_1f_2-12H^2f_1+\frac{3}{2}\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_1-\frac{3}{2}\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_2
  -\frac{1}{2}f_1\ddot{f}_1-\frac{3}{2}f_2\ddot{f}_2+3H\dot{f}_2+6H^2f^2_1\nonumber\\
  &\left.+6H^2f_2^2-9H^2f_2\right)=\zeta\rho c^4, \label{eq:15}\\
  &-\alpha_1\left(H^2+2\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}\right)+\alpha_2\left(-3\dot{f}_1\dot{f}_2+6H\dot{f}_2
  -2H\dot{f}_1+4\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_1-12\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_2+2H^2f_1-6H^2f_2+12H^2+\frac{9}{2}\dot{f}_2^2
  +\frac{1}{2}\dot{f}_1^2\right.\nonumber\\
  &\left.+12\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}\right)+\alpha_3\left(\frac{5}{2}\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_1
  +\frac{3}{2}\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_2-2\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_1^2-2\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_2^2
  +\frac{1}{2}f_1\ddot{f}_1+\frac{3}{2}f_2\ddot{f}_2+3H\dot{f}_2+4H\dot{f}_1-4H^2f_1^2-4H^2f_2^2+H^2f_2\right.\nonumber\\
  &\left.+2H^2+\frac{3}{2}\dot{f}_2^2+\frac{1}{2}\dot{f}_1^2+\ddot{f}_1+\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}
  -4Hf_1\dot{f}_2-\frac{5}{2}Hf_1\dot{f}_1+\frac{1}{2}Hf_2\dot{f}_2-4Hf_2\dot{f}_1
  -4\frac{\ddot{a}}{a}f_1f_2-8H^2f_1f_2\right)=\zeta p c^2. \label{eq:16}
\end{align}
\end{widetext}
The equation of state reads $p=w\rho c^2$, and $w=0$ for matter, $w=1/3$ for radiation. These five equations form a complete set of ordinary differential equations. One can directly verify the energy conservation equation
\begin{equation}\label{eq:17}
  \dot{\rho}+3H(\rho+p/c^2)=0
\end{equation}
can be derived from Eqs. (\ref{eq:13})--(\ref{eq:16}). In addition, substituting Eqs. (\ref{eq:13})--(\ref{eq:14}) into Eq. (\ref{eq:15}) to eliminate $\ddot{f}_i$ and setting $\alpha_2=-\alpha_3/2$, we obtain
\begin{align}\label{eq:18}
  3\alpha_1H^2&+\alpha_3\left[3H^2(f_1+f_2)^2-3H^2(f_1+3f_2)\right.\nonumber\\
  &\left.-6H\dot{f}_2+\frac{1}{4}\dot{f}_1^2+\frac{3}{2}\dot{f}_1\dot{f}_2-\frac{3}{4}\dot{f}_2^2\right]=\zeta\rho c^4.
\end{align}
Values of $\{f_1,\dot{f}_1,f_2,\dot{f}_2\}$ at one time point can be regarded as boundary conditions. Equation (\ref{eq:18}) imposes limits on these boundary conditions because $\rho$ should be positive. We can use Eqs. (\ref{eq:17})--(\ref{eq:18}) instead of Eqs. (\ref{eq:15})--(\ref{eq:16}) to study the evolution of the Universe. Taking the derivative of Eq. (\ref{eq:18}) with respect to $t$, and substituting Eqs. (\ref{eq:13}), (\ref{eq:14}), and (\ref{eq:17}) into the result to eliminate $\ddot{f}_i$ and $\dot{\rho}$, we obtain
\begin{align}\label{eq:19}
  \frac{\ddot{a}}{a}&=\frac{1}{\alpha_3[(f_1+f_2)^2-f_1-3f_2+1]+\alpha_1}\cdot
  \left[-\frac{1+w}{2}\zeta\rho c^4\right.\nonumber\\
  &\quad+\alpha_3H^2\left(f_1^2+f_2^2+2f_1f_2+f_1-f_2-2\right)\nonumber\\
  &\quad+\alpha_3H\left(\dot{f}_1-3\dot{f}_2-2f_1\dot{f}_1-2f_1\dot{f}_2-2f_2\dot{f}_1-2f_2\dot{f}_2\right)\nonumber\\
  &\quad\left.+\alpha_3\left(\frac{3}{2}\dot{f}_1\dot{f}_2+\frac{1}{4}\dot{f}_1^2-\frac{3}{4}\dot{f}_2^2\right)
  +\alpha_1H^2\right].
\end{align}

In order to explain the late-time acceleration, we expect a matter-dominated universe owns accelerating expansion solutions. Equation (\ref{eq:19}) meets our expectations. For example, in the case $\{\alpha_1=0,\alpha_3=1\}$, setting $\{H=H_0,f_1=0,\dot{f}_1=2H_0,f_2=0,\dot{f}_2=0\}$ at $t=t_0$ gives $\ddot{a}/a=H_0^2/2>0$ and $\rho=H_0^2/(8\pi G)>0$.

For the radiation-dominated universe, we know the horizon problem disappears if the expansion is accelerating. Equation (\ref{eq:19}) shows the radiation-dominated universe also has accelerating expansion solutions. For example, in the case $\{\alpha_1=0,\alpha_3=1\}$, setting $\{H=H_0,f_1=0,\dot{f}_1=2H_0,f_2=0,\dot{f}_2=0\}$ at $t=t_0$ gives $\ddot{a}/a=H_0^2/3>0$ and $\rho=H_0^2/(8\pi G)>0$.

So far, we have proved both the matter and radiation-dominated universe can be accelerating with suitable boundary conditions, i.e., values of $\{f_1,\dot{f}_1,f_2,\dot{f}_2\}$. Observational data can constrain these values. In addition, we should explore physical origins of the desired boundary conditions. For simplicity and beauty, we suggest readers focus on the case $\{\alpha_1=0,\alpha_2=-1/2,\alpha_3=1,\zeta=8\pi G/c^4\}$.

\section{Conclusions}
In this paper, we propose a new nonlocal gravity theory, which combines the advantages of the pure fourth-order gravity \cite{Tian2018} and Deser-Woodard nonlocal gravity \cite{Deser2007}. This is a pure geometric theory with second-order differential field equations in the localized formalism, and no parameters related to $H_0$ appear in the Lagrangian. The theory recovers Newton's gravity and gives $\Psi=\Phi$ in the weak field limit. The speed of gravitational waves equals to $c$. For cosmology, accelerating expansion can be obtained with suitable boundary conditions in both the matter and radiation-dominated universe. Especially, the above good properties also exist in the simplest case $\{\alpha_1=0,\alpha_2=-1/2,\alpha_3=1,\zeta=8\pi G/c^4\}$.

Extension of our work is possible. Combined with the result in \cite{Tian2018}, we conjecture there should be a large class of operators $\widehat{O}$ that make the theory with the following Lagrangian:
\begin{equation}
  \mathcal{L}_G=\frac{1}{2\zeta}\left(R_{\mu\nu}\widehat{O}^{-1}R^{\mu\nu}-\frac{1}{2}R\widehat{O}^{-1}R\right)
\end{equation}
behaves well in local gravitational systems, gravitational waves, and cosmology.

Your ultimate women's health checklist for Hong Kong
By Localiiz Branded | 7 September 2022

Despite a rising awareness surrounding shared familial responsibilities and the gender gap, women continue to make up the majority of primary caregivers. But when the primary caregiver is busy caring for others, what about concerns for their own health?
Women's health is a subsection under regular check-ups with tests designed specifically for a woman's body. On top of standard procedures you would expect from a body check-up, like blood tests, women's health check-ups also feature scans that detect early onsets of medical conditions, such as cervical and breast cancer.
To remain at peak health, Matilda International Hospital, a private healthcare service provider located on Victoria Peak, recommends getting a comprehensive health check annually or every two to three years, depending on your age. We asked the doctors at Matilda for their knowledge on everything you need to know about women's health.

Regular screenings
A women's health check-up involves screenings that should be conducted on a regular basis, which can detect any early onset of disease. Breast cancer is one such example; as the most common type of cancer for women, all women over the age of 44 are recommended to consider breast screening via a mammogram. It allows the physicians to see if a patient has abnormal tissue changes or lumps, which are signs of breast cancer.
Those with personalised risk factors—such as nulliparity, the presence of a history of breast cancer among first-degree relatives, and prior diagnosis of benign breast disease—should conduct mammography screenings every two years. However, if you should perceive anything as abnormal, then you should contact a doctor for advice on whether a physical examination or a breast imaging or scan is needed.
Another standard screening is the pap smear, which checks for your cervical health. The Hong Kong Department of Health recommends for people aged 25 and upwards with sexual experience to schedule regular pap smears once every three years.
During this procedure, a physician will carefully remove cells from the cervix with a small brush and have the cells checked for any abnormal changes that may indicate cervical cancer, infections, or inflammation. It may sound invasive, but a check-up keeps you safe from complications down the line, and you shouldn't feel anything more than a pinch.
Other medical imaging exams
Ultrasounds play an important role in a health check-up. When women go through a pelvic ultrasound, it allows for a quick, non-invasive look at a woman's pelvic organs and tissue, such as the uterus, ovaries, and cervix. Those who are ticklish should be mentally prepared, but otherwise, you should not feel any discomfort during the procedure.

Like many medical check-ups, women's health check procedures include drawing blood for lab tests. While this is not everyone's favourite part of a check-up, it is an important step, as it yields results that show what is going on inside your body on a more detailed level.
A typical women's health check-up would involve testing for anaemia, liver function, renal (kidney) function, and more, depending on the programme. At Matilda International Hospital, women's health check-ups also include tests for blood sugar, cholesterol (also called a lipid profile test), and urinalysis, as well as a general health check, which includes baseline blood pressure, body weight, BMI, and reviews for past medical history. A full STD (sexually transmitted disease) test is also available upon request.

We've all heard of the HPV vaccine, something that every child over the age of nine should receive, but what exactly is it? The HPV vaccine prevents the body from contracting the human papillomavirus, a series of viruses acquired through sexual skin-to-skin contact.
HPV can affect both men and women—the virus is found in more than 99 percent of cervical cancer. It is also linked to cancers in the vulva, vagina, anus, and oropharynx, and can also lead to genital warts, penile cancer, and anal cancer in men. HPV screenings should be considered for women aged 30 and onwards, as part of cervical cancer screening. Still, the vaccine is the best way to prevent contracting and passing on HPV once someone becomes sexually active.

Matilda International Hospital has you covered with four women's health assessment programmes in two locations—the Peak and the downtown clinic in Central—which include a head-to-toe examination of baseline parameters, a vision check, and a full physical examination.
Well Woman Lite offers preliminary tests for a woman's general well-being, including breast and pelvic examinations, blood tests, urinalysis, and pap smear.
Suppose you're looking for ways to improve your lifestyle. In that case, Well Woman adds to those procedures with advice on common women's health issues, such as family planning, as well as a 2D mammogram (for those over 44 years old) or breast ultrasound.
If you'd like a more extensive investigation of what's going on in your body, check out Well Woman Plus, which is the most comprehensive women's health assessment that Matilda Medical Centre has to offer. The programme has everything we've mentioned above, plus an upper abdominal ultrasound, tests for Hepatitis A & B, thyroid function, and more.
For something a little more extensive, head to Matilda International Hospital at the Peak for Well Woman Premium. On top of everything we've mentioned, the plan also includes procedures such as a DEXA bone scan and testing for hormones and tumour markers. As a cherry on top, the package comes with a private room, where you can enjoy a fantastic sea view and a complimentary deluxe breakfast after your check-up.
For your next women's health check-up, you'll be in safe hands at Matilda International Hospital. As one of Hong Kong's best private hospitals, Matilda is known for its range of comprehensive women's health assessments, as well as its specialised wards for maternity, orthopaedics, surgery, and ear, nose, and throat. Matilda's newly developed facilities, state-of-the-art equipment, and treatments from the top specialists in Hong Kong ensure that you receive the best care available during your visit.

Q: ngFor inside ngFor I have Angular + Firebase app.
In one of my components i get elements from Firebase DB and binding them into template with *ngFor:

{{ comment.text }}

But every comment also have answers list:

How can i bind answers inside my loop, for example, something like this:

{{ comment.text }}

     {{ answer.text }}
   </div

This structure does not work and return error:

Cannot find a differ supporting object '[object Object]' of type
  'object'. NgFor only supports binding to Iterables such as Arrays.

A: The answers property is an object. You must convert it into an array, before displaying it in your *ngFor loop.
component.html

{{ comment.text }}

     {{ answer.text }}
    answers[key])
  }
}

If you want to keep the key, you can merge it into the object in the map call as well.
export class Component {
  toArray(answers: object) {
    return Object.keys(answers).map(key => ({
      key,
      ...answers[key]
    }))
  }
}

A: Below code worked for me; Angular 7 Ionic 4;
  <ion-item (click)="navigate(oB.ogretmen_id)" class="OgretmenOzellikler" color="primary" *ngFor="let oB of ogretmenBilgi">

            <ion-label>

{{oB.ogretmen_ad}} {{oB.ogretmen_ad}}

                <ion-label>{{oB.ogretmen_brans}}</ion-label>

                    <ion-icon name="bookmarks"></ion-icon>{{key.ders_ad}}

            </ion-label>
        </ion-item>

Self-assembly of surfactants and polymorphic transition in nanotubes
Noriyoshi Arai, Kenji Yasuoka, X. C. Zeng
We study self-assembly and polymorphic transitions of surfactant molecules in water within a nanotube and the effect of water-nanotube interactions on the self-assembly morphologies. We present a simulation evidence of a cornucopia of polymorphic structures of surfactant assemblies-many of which have not been observed in bulk solutions-through adjusting the water-nanotube chemical interactions which range from hydrophilic to hydroneutral and to hydrophobic. The ability to control the morphologies of surfactant assemblies within nanoscale confinement can be used for patterning the interior surface of nanochannels for application in nanofluidics and nanomedical devices.

Q: Punctuation question: quotation marks around names in dialog? If you refer to a name alone and not along with a person in dialog, do you put single quotation marks around it?
E.g., "Yeah, I agree with you there. 'Jon' is pretty common, but the same could be said of 'Jeffrey,' too."
E.g., "I could go with the name, Jon, sure, but I prefer 'Jeff' instead; or maybe since my last name's Thomas I'll go with 'Tommy.'
Made up examples, but they convey what I'm iffy about fine I think. Thanks for the feedback!

A: You can use quotations or possibly even bare, but I think the best option would be to use italics, since that's more common for when talking about words as words (in this case, it's a name as a word):

*

*"Yeah, I agree with you there.  Jon is pretty common, but the same could be said of Jeffrey, too"

*"I could go with the name Jon, sure, but I prefer Jeff instead; or maybe since my last name's Thomas, I'll go with Tommy."

I would do the same inside or outside of quotation marks, though.

May 19 (UPI) -- Filmmaker Woody Allen has released on social media a trailer for his romantic comedy A Rainy Day in New York, starring Timothee Chalamet and Selena Gomez.
Also featuring Elle Fanning, Jude Law, Diego Luna and Liev Schreiber, the film was completed in 2017, but its U.S. release was canceled by Amazon following intense media and industry scrutiny of Allen for decades-old, sexual-abuse allegations lodged by his daughter Dylan Farrow.
He has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and has not been convicted of any crime. He recently filed a breach of contract lawsuit against Amazon pertaining to the film's release and the cancellation of other projects he had set up at the company.
It is scheduled to open in Italian theaters on Oct. 3, The Hollywood Reporter said.
"The official trailer for A Rainy Day in New York," Allen wrote without further comment in a weekend Facebook post.
The message accompanied a 90-second preview that shows college students, played by Chalamet and Fanning, heading into Manhattan so the young woman can interview a famous director.
She ends up getting ensnared in film-set drama, while Chalamet lands a role in a movie and is conflicted about kissing an actress played by Gomez in a scene.

Volvo Trucks to debut new models at IAA 2018
Created: Wednesday, 29 August 2018 06:20
Volvo Trucks will be introducing new solutions at the IAA Commercial Vehicles show in Hannover, Germany, from 20-27 September 2018
During the international exhibition for mobility, transport and logistics, Volvo Trucks will showcase its latest developments in the field of alternative drive systems. In addition, an innovative automation project will be on display, said the Swedish truck manufacturer.
Volvo Truck's introduction of the latest products at the IAA comes ahead of the company's objective to start selling electric trucks in Europe in 2019. At the IAA, Volvo will showcase the Volvo FE Electric. According to the company, the model is a waste disposal truck with a body that has been built in collaboration with Faun, Europe's leading manufacturer of refuse truck bodies.
"Electric mobility is an important part of our long-term commitment to sustainable urban development and zero emissions," said Claes Nilsson, president of Volvo Trucks.
Electric trucks are much quieter and cleaner than their diesel-engined counterparts and are ideal for use in indoor terminals and environmental zones, said Volvo. "There is significant market interest in trucks with electric drives. A large number of potential customers have enquired about the opportunities that the new technology has to offer and what this means for their businesses," stressed the company.
LNG trucks
Volvo will display the new Volvo FH LNG during the exhibition. The product, running on liquefied natural gas (LNG), is for regional and long-haul heavy goods transport and produce 309 or 338kW.
Volvo explained that the LNG trucks have the same power output and the same driveability as the diesel-powered models. At the same time, the CO2 emissions of the long-haul truck model are between 20 and 100 per cent lower than diesel vehicles, depending on the fuel used.
On the Hall 17, Stand A05, Volvo will provide information about the company's automated driving project, which is being presented to the general public for the first time. There will be a separate area devoted to the new Volvo Connect customer portal, which has recently been announced and will be on display for the first time at the IAA.
Volvo has created the Volvo FH 25 Year Edition to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the market launch of the Volvo FH in 1993. Two models have been available since June 2018 including the Volvo FH and the Volvo FH16.
Some of the prominent Volvo Trucks vehicles that will be on show at the IAA 2018 include Volvo FH 25 Year Edition, 4x2 tractor unit, D13 with 540 hp, Globetrotter XL cab, I-Shift dual clutch, Volvo Dynamic Steering Volvo FE Electric, Globetrotter cab, Volvo Dynamic Steering FH16, 8x4 heavy-duty tractor unit, Globetrotter XL cab, Sleeper cab, Huttner timber body with Palfinger crane at the back, Meiller three-sided tipper body, Volvo dynamic steering, I-Shift, Steered tag axle and others.

A new car is a great time to buy one.
But you're not going to buy it if you don't know what kind of fuel you need, or if you want to pay extra for a cheaper fuel.
The fuel selection of most modern cars and SUVs are designed to meet a certain standard, with the average petrol-to-gasoline conversion of 4.4% and the average diesel-to, say, petrol conversion of 12.6%.
But what happens when you want a gas-electric vehicle that will run on any petrol, diesel or hybrid fuel?
What's the best petrol/diesel hybrid car?
The answers to these questions depend on your needs.
What you need to know about petrol vs diesel hybrid carsThe fuel choice of a petrol/electric hybrid car is generally pretty simple: it has a plug-in hybrid powertrain, which produces electricity, which is then converted to fuel, which then produces electricity again.
It's a good idea to get a gas hybrid car if you can afford it.
It is also a good time to consider buying a gas engine.
There are two major types of petrol engines: regular (regular petrol) and hydrogen fuel cells (HFC).
Regular petrol engines use diesel fuel and can be used in a variety of vehicles, including cars and buses.
A HFC engine is a different story.
It uses liquid hydrogen, which makes up 70% of the fuel in modern cars.
The hydrogen fuel cell (HMC) engine is much less common.
It doesn't have any fuel to convert to gasoline and is designed to produce electricity by burning hydrogen.
Most of the petrol engines used in petrol and diesel cars have two cylinders.
The gas engine has a single cylinder, the hydrogen fuel-cell is a single-cylinder cylinder.
The difference between the two is that the fuel cells can be swapped out as needed.
The diesel engine is not an engine that uses diesel fuel.
It requires diesel fuel to run, and diesel is expensive.
In order to be profitable, diesel engines must be able to make a profit at some point.
If you are looking for a petrol engine that will be profitable when the engine is running, then look at an HFC.
The HFC is a more fuel-efficient engine.
The main advantages of the HFC over the regular petrol engine are lower maintenance costs, greater range, and a higher power output.
It also has the added benefit of being lighter, making it ideal for short journeys.
A car without a HFC has to be refueled, which can take up to an hour.
A petrol engine with a HMC will have a fuel cell mounted on the back of the engine, which means you can swap it out as you need it.
For most petrol cars, the HMC is the cheapest of the three options.
If, however, you want an electric car that will have an even more powerful petrol engine, then go for a diesel engine.
Diesel engines are much more expensive than petrol engines, but can also be used for short distances, making them ideal for long journeys.
A petrol/hydrogen hybrid car can have a range of up to 30 miles, and can also charge in the car, using the battery.
It will also have a gas motor, which will provide electricity to the battery as it charges.
A diesel hybrid car has a range in the neighbourhood of 40 miles.
The range of a diesel hybrid engine is similar to a petrol-electric hybrid.
In a diesel car, there is usually a petrol or HFC powertrain.
In petrol engines with hydrogen fuel, there are usually two types of engines: the diesel-hydrogen engine (DH), which produces the electricity that powers the electric motor, and the hydrogen-electric engine (HE), which supplies the electricity to recharge the battery when it's full.
In the diesel hybrid, there's usually a diesel-electric motor in the back.
Diesel hybrids are usually more fuel efficient than petrol hybrids because diesel fuel can be replaced during charging.
Diesel and petrol engines are also similar in how the battery is connected to the electric drivetrain.
They are also very similar in weight.
A Diesel car with a petrol drivetrain can be around 30% heavier than a petrol car with the same engine.
It can also have more power, as well as more fuel economy.
Fuel economy in a diesel diesel hybrid is about 60% better than petrol cars.
A hybrid diesel hybrid has a top speed of 60 km/h (37 mph).
It has about twice the range of petrol and petrol hybrids, and about four times the fuel economy of petrol.
It weighs about 3,600 kg (5,100 lbs).
A diesel diesel engine has an engine displacement of around 3,200cc.
It produces around 535 kW (636 hp).
A petrol diesel engine produces about 1,300 kW (1,350 hp).
The fuel efficiency of a Diesel engine is about 62%.
Diesel engines have a lower average

Does the name Russell Bevan ring a bell? Well, it probably does to most wine-geek denizens of the internet. Russell (and alter ego Bacchus) was there at the start, when wine-based bulletin boards and discussion groups emerged from their cocoons.
A rabid wine fan from the time he could buy wine (actually, even before), Russell wanted to learn everything he could about the subject. Eventually, he found many others across the country like himself who were thoroughly into wine. Before long, Russell found himself leading groups of thirsty geeks on extended wine tours of his favorite region, California. These tours became the things of legend, and soon other geeks were doing likewise, exploring and indulging their passion in the California grape scene.
So, where did all this crazy passion for wine lead Russell? Right into winemaking. When he was offered a ton of high-quality Cabernet fruit from a very respected source in Napa Valley, Russell jumped at the chance and made his first Bevan Cellars Cabernet. And where did that lead him? The winemaking job at this same source – Showkett Vineyards. Fast forward to today, Russell leads some of the same friends on a new adventure, hand-sorting through grapes in an all-out effort to make a "yummy" wine.
Join us as we talk with Russell about the early days, the present challenges, and how he and his inspiration Victoria realize a dream of what must seem like the perfect life.
Nice program with Russell guys-he is a great guy and full of information.
Just so we're all perfectly clear here, I do not like "thin, weak, insipid wines" but rather a large variety of wines that have great character and show a sense of place.
Although, "yummy" isn't bad either.
'Nice job guys; you had your work cut out for you with Russell and you handled it well. BTW, just how many bottles did you guys open?
Do I have to answer about the number of bottles?
Jim, FWIW, I have bought many wines you have tasted and liked. So far, you have never failed me.
That's because you like weak, thin, insipid wines, too.
Its a movement . . .
I enjoyed the program. It sounded more like I was listening in on a party.
You were having way too much fun.
I really enjoyed this particular show. In fact I enjoyed it so much that I listened to it twice, the second time with a nice bottle of wine!
John, you are always welcome to jon us.
John, as you can see from the picture above, we take these interviews quite seriously.
Although I haven't finished listening to it yet, I've really enjoyed it. It makes dull and monotonous workouts tolerable.
" Debotchery was a big part of my intruduction to the wine world and i've never left" awesome! 35 minutes in and i'm still awake…it's as though i'm hearing a coversation at the next table over, one i'd love to be apart of. jealous, envious and motivated in Spokane.
Russell's a great guy but I still love Gary Vaynerchuk and his hard hitting style for wine reviews. I know the world of wine is better off by having both of these guys representing it!! Thanks for posting this interview!!

NYT: Book Questions Clinton Donations
From:jschwerin@hillaryclinton.com To: HRCrapid@googlegroups.com Date: 2015-04-19 23:08 Subject: NYT: Book Questions Clinton Donations
Book Questions Clinton Donations By AMY CHOZICK <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/c/amy_chozick/index.html>APRIL 19, 2015 http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/20/us/politics/book-questions-clinton-donations.html?_r=0 The book does not hit shelves until May 5, but already the Republican Rand Paul has called its findings "big news" that will "shock people" and make voters "question" the candidacy of Hillary Rodham Clinton <http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/04/13/us/elections/hillary-clinton.html?inline=nyt-per> . "Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich," by Peter Schweizer — a 186-page investigation of donations made to the Clinton Foundation by foreign entities — is proving the most anticipated and feared book of a presidential cycle still in its infancy. The book, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times, asserts that foreign entities who made payments to the Clinton Foundation and to Mr. Clinton through high speaking fees received favors from Mrs. Clinton's State Department in return. "We will see a pattern of financial transactions involving the Clintons that occurred contemporaneous with favorable U.S. policy decisions benefiting those providing the funds," Mr. Schweizer writes. His examples include a free-trade agreement in Colombia that benefited a major foundation donor's natural resource investments in the South American nation, development projects in the aftermath of the Haitian earthquake in 2010, and more than $1 million in payments to Mr. Clinton by a Canadian bank and major shareholder in the Keystone XL <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/k/keystone_pipeline/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier> oil pipeline around the time the project was being debated in the State Department. In the long lead up to Mrs. Clinton's campaign announcement, aides proved adept in swatting down critical books as conservative propaganda, including Edward Klein's "Blood Feud," about tensions between the Clintons and the Obamas, and Daniel Halper's "Clinton Inc.: The Audacious Rebuilding of a Political Machine." But "Clinton Cash" is potentially more unsettling, both because of its focused reporting and because major news organizations are expected to pursue the story lines found in the book. Members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee have been briefed about the book's findings, which have already made their way into several of the Republican presidential candidates' campaigns. Conservative "super PACs <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/c/campaign_finance/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier>" plan to seize on "Clinton Cash," and a pro-Democrat super PAC <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/c/campaign_finance/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier> has already assembled a dossier on Mr. Schweizer, a speechwriting consultant to former President George W. Bush and a fellow at the conservative Hoover Institute, to make the case that he has a bias against Mrs. Clinton. And the newly assembled Clinton campaign team is planning a full-court press to diminish the book as yet another conservative hit job. Mr. Schweizer and a spokeswoman for HarperCollins, which is owned by News Corporation and is publishing the book, declined to comment. The timing is problematic for Mrs. Clinton as she begins a campaign to position herself as a "champion for everyday Americans." From 2001 to 2012, the Clintons' income was at least $136.5 million, Mr. Schweizer writes, using a figure previously reported in The Washington Post. "During Hillary's years of public service, the Clintons have conducted or facilitated hundreds of large transactions" with foreign governments, he writes. "Some of these transactions have put millions in their own pockets." Continue reading the main story The Clinton Foundation has come under scrutiny for accepting foreign donations while Mrs. Clinton served as secretary of state. Last week, the foundation revised its policy to allow donations from countries like Germany, Canada, the Netherlands and Britain but prohibit giving by other nations in the Middle East. Mr. Schweizer's book will be released the same day former President Bill Clinton <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/c/bill_clinton/index.html?inline=nyt-per>and the Clintons' daughter, Chelsea, will host the Clinton Global Initiative gathering with donors in Morocco, the culmination of a foundation trip to several African nations. (A chapter in the book is titled "Warlord Economics: The Clintons do Africa.") There is a robust market for books critical of the Clintons. The thinly sourced "Blood Feud," by Mr. Klein, at one point overtook Mrs. Clinton's memoir "Hard Choices" on the best-seller list. But whether Mr. Schweizer's book can deliver the same sales is not clear. Mr. Schweizer writes mainly in the voice of a neutral journalist and meticulously documents his sources, including tax records and government documents, while leaving little doubt about his view of the Clintons. His reporting largely focuses on payments made to Mr. Clinton for speeches, which increased while his wife served as secretary of state, writing that "of the 13 Clinton speeches that fetched $500,000 or more, only two occurred during the years his wife was not secretary of state." In 2011, Mr. Clinton made $13.3 million in speaking fees for 54 speeches, the majority of which were made overseas, the author writes. Among the connections he tries to draw is a $750,000 speaking fee to Mr. Clinton by the Swedish telecom company Ericsson and a State Department list of new sanctions on Iran that did not include telecom. Mr. Schweizer, president of the Government Accountability Institute, is the author of the 2013 book "Extortion: How Politicians Extract Your Money, Buy Votes, and Line Their Own Pockets," and "Throw Them All Out" about elected officials receiving insider stock tips. -- Josh Schwerin Spokesperson Hillary for America @Josh Schwerin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "HRCRapid" group.

The popular Orpington Food Festival is back this year with more to tempt the taste buds.
It began on Monday, September 2 and runs until Sunday, September 8.
The festival is organised by the town's business community, Orpington 1st.
A spokesman said the week-long celebration will feature a series of events and a number of restaurants are running special festival offers, highlighted in a festival brochure which has been distributed to thousands of households and is available to read online.
Orpington 1st BID manager, Chris Travers, said: "We have a thriving restaurant scene in Orpington with some much-loved and long-established eateries as well as some exciting new additions.
"Flavours of Orpington is a great chance to celebrate the range we have and to encourage residents across the borough to take a fresh look at what's on offer in Orpington town centre."
The festival concludes with a weekend of free to attend events in Orpington's Market Square.
Foodie Friday on September 6, Chris says, is a mouth-watering selection of food stalls and a pop-up bar is accompanied by a delicious line-up of live music.
Then it is on to Saturday Showcase where chefs from some of the town's favourite restaurants prepare delectable dishes live in a specially installed demonstration kitchen.
There's a collaboration with Churches Together Orpington to round off the week with a free barbecue and family entertainment at the Sunday Social.
Orpington 1st is the Business Improvement District for Orpington, a not-for-profit limited company established in 2013.
Its aim is to improve the town centre and is funded and led by town centre businesses.
Its range of projects includes the creation of free events like Light Up Orpington at Christmas, a live screening of the royal wedding in 2018 and the Food Festival, now in its third year.
Executive director Sharon Baldwin said: "Leisure and hospitality have become increasingly important to town centres in recent years so we're delighted that Flavours of Orpington has proved so popular. We are really looking forward to welcoming everyone."

Just to "Evens" things up a little, Chris Evans also is a breath of fresh air in the morning when Radio 4 has depressed me about the state of the world. We may have lost the sobriety of earlier BBC presentations, but there are horses for courses and Chris Evans does have his place. On a personal note, I am fed up with the entire Radio 4 take on the wedding this morning, less pomp and circumstance and more what we could expect from a lady of colour, anyone would have thought this was a political marriage rather than a marriage of two young people who love each other.
I agree totally Julie. I have heard some of the most vapid and far fetched statements imaginable this morning. All part of course of the curse of the presenter who has to fill every second with something. Two middle aged people (round about 35 qualifies as middle aged if you think about the Bible's three score and ten) are getting married. End of story! Needless to say, this house will, as far as possible, be a wedding-free zone for the rest of today.
Mr and Mrs Tiz are inspecting Cornwall for a week, they've picked good weather!
An interesting article from Glossop Heritage Trust, i assume a lot of it would also have applied to Barlick ?
Thanks for that link Bodger - very interesting.
Bodge, Barlick would be very similar but worth pointing out that this is a relatively prosperous budget. Income could vary a lot and have a look at Reach in Rare Documents for reports of living in poverty, there were plenty of them and they didn't fare nearly as well.
The inquest on the last Royal Wedding is still running. Every detail will be picked over and analysed to death.
How many weddings have we had in the last 50 years? Roughly one every seven years so nothing new there.
30 June 1978: Prince Michael of Kent was married to Baroness Marie Christine von Reibnitz at the Wiener Rathaus in Austria.
12 December 1992: Anne, Princess Royal, only daughter of Queen Elizabeth II was married to Commander Timothy Laurence at Crathie Kirk.
19 June 1999: Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, youngest son of Queen Elizabeth II, was married to Sophie Helen Rhys-Jones at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle.
29 April 2011: Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, second grandson of Queen Elizabeth II, elder son of Charles, Prince of Wales, and second in line to the throne, was married to Catherine Elizabeth Middleton at Westminster Abbey.
See THIS for the latest evidence that the High Street is poorly, Marks and Spencer's are in trouble and closing stores down. I see that one is in Stockport, I can remember when they, Woolworth and British Home Stores were the anchors in the High Street. This is a knock on of the closures, these large flagship stores attracted the footfall and remember that their business rates are a major part of local council funding. The problem is of course bad management and the growth of internet shopping. Not a heathy sign!
Internet shopping isn't a problem, it's a solution! The past is gone, the big stores have had their day. Move on!
China. That doesn't invalidate my point that the growth of E-shopping is one of the factors leading to stores on the high street being unprofitable. It's a matter of opinion whether the race to the bottom on the internet is a good thing. We see the growth of monopoly and inevitably lessening of choice especially if you are not computer literate and there are many who aren't. Not everyone has a bank account and credit card for instance. They are completely locked out of the brave new world.
Stanley, you're old enough to have got over "brave new world" it makes the cut for different and more complicated but not much else in my book.
I have Pluggy but I'm thinking about other people who haven't got there yet and the effect it is having on the high street and council income.. In case you haven't noticed things are deteriorating fast!
A letter from British Gas which suggests they are not talking to each other! Incompetence reigns, OK?
See THIS which is old news but is an indication about a worrying rise in extremist views in Germany. Anti Semitism seems to be on the rise.
Add the extreme views being expressed by the new Italian government and there seems to be a trend developing that indicates a shift to the Right. Very disturbing for old farts like me who have long memories!
A very good response from an old GP mate of mine in America about the anti migraine drug. Knowledgeable friends are a boon at times!
It's not as simple as that, China. Shopping online is OK for some things but for many others the consumer wants to be able to try out the item in a shop and be able to discuss it with the shop staff face to face. It's also a common mistake to think that everything is cheaper online when you can often find the same price or better in a shop or get it discounted by simply asking them to do you a a better price. You can build up a relationship with a real shop that you can never do with Amazon and the like. And another important factor - lots of people enjoy going to shops and combining it with a visit to the coffee shop or restaurant. I know some people are going into the shop simply to see the item they want then going home and buying it from, say, Amazon online. But that retail model isn't going to survive. The High Street or retail park shops aren't going to survive if everyone started doing that - but I don't believe they will, shopping is too attractive for most people, even it it isn't for me!
Stanley's right about the serious decline in shops but it's more to do with the economy than anything else. People in Britain aren't spending so much, either because they can't or won't. The Government is hiding it or just blind to it but we're in bad trouble. Part of it is definitely blindness but due to a paradigm shift which is making our economic forecasting and national statistics not fit for purpose. That's another story and I'll go into it in more detail elsewhere...once I've recovered from my holiday!
Thanks Ian, we had wonderful weather, just right for walking the beaches and cliffs. I'm sure my legs are an inch shorter. I'll put a few photos up once I've got them sorted!
A falling down drunk youth staggering about Valley Gardens this morning in sunglasses..... Whatever turns you on.
Bands on the Square has been a much improved event this year, a ban on bringing your own drink has stopped nearly all of the antisocial behaviour that was seen last year. The local constabulary reported just one arrest, at the event, on Saturday and the confiscation of 41litres of alchohol at the entrances.
From personal observation the event was calm and people were there to enjoy the music (not drink as much as possible and fight one another), day three today so an early finish with the exception of the volunteers who will be out clearing up.
The tribute to Allan Parkinson yesterday was emotional and fitting, past and most recent members of Dark Horse played a 45 minute set of Allan's original material to an appreciative crowd.
...and the confiscation of 41 litres of alchohol at the entrances.
I take it the booze was voluntarily given up to be returned on leaving. Although virtually teetotal myself I have not problem with people enjoying a drink at this sort of event. Generally speaking it adds to the overall atmosphere making it more relaxed friendly.
Very reasonably priced drinks (alchoholic and soft) were available at the venue, cold water and cordial was free. The restriction was on taking in your own and was part of the licence conditions. The confiscation would have been from anyone unable to provide ID if they didn't meet the 'challenge 25' requirements, anyone else would be refused entry.

Windows Store accepting PEGI 18 games today
By Naren Hooson, Thursday, 13 December 2012 07:15 GMT
After announcing initially that the Microsoft Windows Store would not be accepting games with mature content, it has today announced it will begin accepting PEGI 18 rated games.
Polygon reports, saying that Windows Store guidelines in October stated that games and apps with a rating over PEGI 16 wouldn't meet certification requirements for the store, and therefor excluding them from being released on the Windows market place.
In Europe this meant that games such as Mass Effect 3, Dishonored, Deus Ex and The Walking Dead would not be made available on the store. Guidelines were changed later that month to accept "mature" content for the Windows 8 Marketplace. Today is the first day PEGI 18 games can be submitted to the store.
The Witcher 2 and Grand Theft Auto 4 have been announced by Microsoft as coming to the platform soon.
In a blog post, the director of program management for the Windows Store, Ted Dworkin said. "In welcoming PEGI 18 games into the Store, we again reinforce two principles — flexibility and confidence —fundamental to the Windows Store. We recognize that people have come to expect and appreciate rich gaming experiences on Windows and this includes games rated PEGI 18. We also want to ensure that every customer using the Store can browser and acquire apps with confidence."
This follows the announcement in October that the restrictions would be relaxed.

Lines are often the most neglected aspects of a fisherman's tackle. They "seem" to frequently cost "relatively more" than the other equipment such as rods, reels etc because they have a much shorter shelf life than other items just mentioned. Some of us still own and fish with equipment that is 20/40 years old, in fact not as a matter of necessity, rather more due to the sense of pleasure and pride one gets from using old reliable unbeatable gear. Today the business motive is not focussed as it was in the 50/80's on quality at any cost. Today we live universally in the throw-away world where materials used in the mass market items are inferior to that used in earlier times. Consider the cheapest entry level reels from the 40's on, they are still quality devices.
Even starting from the more primitive attempts at fishing before rods and reels were de rigour, the hand spun natural materials of hunter-gatherer societies and the cat gut of our grandparents generation, did wear out and had to be cared for to make it last.
In the last 50 years or so normal monofil lines however, irrespective of cost, either then or now, were meant to be replaced because they did wear out. Let us not even consider the cost of sophisticated braids and gel spun lines for the moment.
Lines are exposed to harsh environments such heat and cold, dust, salt, corrosive or less then perfect Ph waters, rough abrasive surfaces of sand and rock, twisted and stretched incredibly (we hope) and frequently stored in a tightened state in less than suitable circumstances. Fly lines once again due to their relative high costs are more likely to be treated with a little more care and concern and may even experience the privilege of being rewound and stored more gently. Much more care needs to be exercised with matching the fly line type and also choice and purchase of lines due to line weight specification needed for a particular rod as it is the line that takes the fly on its journey to the mouth of a hungry fish rather the heavier lure used with casting and spinning rods.
Knots are a subject of many books but general fishermen tend to have their favourite few such as the blood knot and fly fishermen their own again. With the invent of the new finer, stronger lines, we all had to adapt in order to take advantage of their attributes. Even manufacturers had to adapt the hardware with tougher coating to avoid wear from these tough new lines.
ABU fishing lines such as Abulon I have had very little to do with ; I guess primarily because it was not available or actively marketed where I lived in rural Australia. Anyone very knowledgeable on this subject and who wishes to contribute and document this aspect of ABU for the website, I would greatly appreciate.
Balance between line thickness and lure weight below is all important!
Early flylines from ABU had a useful phamplet enclosed.
These can be braided, fused or co-polymer lines.
They each have advantages/disadvantages in regard to castability, knot strength, flexibility, abrasion resistance and experience will tell if the line suits your usage.
I like the new Berkley Fireline Exceed for ease of casting.
Another recent line! believed to be reliable, efficient and cost effective Fireline Stealth Camo Braid in 125yd spool of 20lb (9.1kg) strength. Review to follow after using it for a while!

Tax › Tax Events › KPMG TaxRadio › TWIST - This Week in State Tax › TWIST - December 14, 2020 › California: Change in Ownership Occurred When Nature of Stock Ownership Changed
California: Change in Ownership Occurred When Nature of Stock Ownership Changed
A California Court of Appeal recently addressed whether the transfer of real property between legal entities triggered a reassessment for property tax purposes. The taxpayer at issue was a Revocable Trust that owned all the voting stock in a corporation. The Trust and several other individuals also owned non-voting stock in the corporation. In the transaction at issue, the corporation transferred real property to the Trust. The Trust's beneficiaries did not include the persons who owned the non-voting stock in the corporation. Under California Proposition 13, property is generally assessed annually based on purchase price adjusted for inflation not to exceed two percent per year, unless there is a change in ownership (or new construction). A transfer of real property will generally trigger reassessment at the property's fair market value. However, an exception to this rule provides that a change of ownership does not occur when there is a "transfer ... between legal entities ... that results solely in a change in the method of holding title to the real property and in which proportional ownership interests of the transferors and transferees, whether represented by stock, partnership interest, or otherwise, in each and every piece of real property transferred remain the same after the transfer." The Los Angeles County Assessor determined that a change of ownership had occurred when the property was transferred and reassessed the value of the property. The taxpayer appealed, arguing that the statutory "proportional interest" exception applied because its ownership interest in the corporation did not change as a result of the transfer. That is, the Trust owned 100 percent of the corporation's voting stock before the transfer and 100 percent of the corporation's voting stock afterward. The Board of Assessment Appeals reversed the assessment, agreeing with the taxpayer, and held that only the voting stock should be analyzed when determining whether the exception applied. After a trial court ruled in the Assessor's favor, the Trust appealed.
At issue before the appellate court was whether the term "stock" as provided in the statutory exception referred to only voting stock or all classes of stock. If the definition of stock referred to all stock, then there would be a change in ownership, and thus a reassessment, because the individuals who owned non-voting stock before the transfer did not own any stock in the corporation after the transfer. The Trust argued that the term "stock" in the statute meant only "voting stock," and the terms "stock" and "voting stock" appeared to be used interchangeably both in the tax code and a property tax rule promulgated by the California Board of Equalization. The court, rejecting this argument, determined that the legislature intended to use "stock" in a general nature and "voting stock" in a more specific manner. In the court's view, the use of the terms demonstrated that the legislature knew to refer to "voting stock" when defining ownership interests and deliberately chose a different test for purposes of the change in ownership exception. The court also rejected the Trust's argument that the term "stock" was ambiguous. The California tax code specifically identified various categories of stock, and by using "stock" in the statutory exception, all classes of stock were contemplated. The court also noted that the statutory exception must be read in light of section 60 of the tax code, which provided that "there is a change in ownership of real property when there is (1) a transfer of a present interest in real property, (2) including the beneficial use thereof, (3) the value of which is substantially equal to the value of the fee interest." The court observed that after the transfer of the real property, the non-voting stockholders lost their previous economic interest in the real property. As such, a change of ownership had occurred. In a strongly worded dissent, Justice Baker said that in "resolving an issue of statewide importance," the majority opinion authorizes the reassessment of real property in a manner inconsistent with the legal view of the Board of Equalization — "the entity responsible…..for instructing county assessors on correct property tax assessment methods….The majority upends these reliance interests with unpredictable and, at least in some cases, unfair consequences."

The fact that Jacksonville castings can present great opportunities for aspiring entertainment talent is not widely known. Many people know that Jacksonville is the largest city in Florida and the third most populated city on the East Coast, after New York City and Philadelphia. Located on the St. John's River and the Atlantic Ocean, Jacksonville is also the largest deepwater port in the southern United States.
Less well known is that Jacksonville can also be a great place for new talent to explore castings in modeling, acting and all other entertainment possibilities too. Often chosen for on-location shooting by many film and television studios, moviemakers have long been attracted to Jacksonville's warm climate, exotic locations, excellent rail access, and low-cost labor, earning the city the title of "The Winter Film Capital of the World". As a result, many feature films, television programs, commercials, print projects, voice-overs, videos and infomercials are casting daily in Jacksonville. You can find casting calls for extras, actors, dancers and models of all ages, body types, looks and experience levels in Jacksonville.
Casting calls in Jacksonville might be plentiful but in order to tap into those resources you'll have to build up a network first. Research the local Jacksonville scene thoroughly, focus on your particular talent interest and start connecting. Don't forget to look at the local newspapers and look online too. You can search Jacksonville casting calls right now by browsing our website and finding what jobs are available in your field of the entertainment industry.

Hey guys! Today I'm gonna share with you some responses to our art assignments, starting with embarrassing objects. And boy, are they embarrassing. Jeff Oppenheimer's assignment asked you to create something that makes you feel uncomfortable out of a material or group of materials.
Now, John and I guessed that many of you would use the body as a point of departure, and we were right. Like, high-waistedpantaloons shared with us this series of images and GIFS, and a text that recounts the unfortunate digestive disorders that have resulted, through no fault of her own, in hemorrhoids.
She's explained that she's not afraid to talk about the disorders, but she would never say a word about the hemorrhoids. She says there's just something so discomforting about having to apply a cream to them, having to acknowledge them directly. That is what is embarrassing, having to acknowledge my own brokenness with actual physical contact, and then being left to wait it out. There's no cure for this condition, only management, so the embarrassment will never end. I mean, what to say? It's incredibly evocative and effective, and the unendingness of the application is nicely mirrored in the cyclical foreverness of a GIF.
And then we had pointtothesky, who also used foodstuffs to represent the human posterior. They say they wanted to, quote, "create a sculpture that celebrated something that I am embarrassed about, which is my cellulite and stretch marks."
I like to think of this sculpture as perfectly imperfect, just as my own body is. The female body is amazing, and I want to move past the idea that something so normal as cellulite and stretch marks are, quote, "flaws."
I love that the list of materials for this one specified strawberry jelly so you can basically taste this thing as well as feel that gelatinous texture as you're looking at it. It's such a good combination of feelings, of both repulsion and seduction.
Flapjackmcricecake made this terrifically terrifying backyard installation about the embarrassment not of breastfeeding, but of the paraphernalia for expressing and bottle feeding. They say, "I suppose without the baby, it all becomes so clinical. Thoughts turn to machines and bodily fluids instead of natural care and nourishment."
I mean, the sadness of that horrible, looping contraption succumbing to gravity. And it's so judiciously shot from below. And you can hear just a brief baby noise in the background. The inhumanity of such a thing -- bravo.
We have another empty garment from Iamdonutwizard, who said, "I think we all think we're fat or skinny or thin or thick. I've always hated when my Nan would comment on it. So, I took a pair of shorts and made a flag." The darkness here is excellent, as is the floompy drape of those well-worn shorts. And turning it into an object of public-facing pride is such a marvelous act of ownership. I salute you.
Kenton Visser gives us whitey tighty and says, "There's something uniquely embarrassing about underwear, the garments that cover up our bodies' most shameful regions. In a way, underwear is more embarrassing than nakedness." And it's not just about the drawers here, that hang so expertly about the stick legs. It's those tiny little papier-mâché socks, propping up the whole construction that really made it work for me.
Minnesbeta shared this splendid object, so masterfully photographed as if being encountered in a low-fi horror movie. Minnesbeta says, "hair is only allowed in certain places." And oh, boy, this one really made my spine tingle. The material that covers the handle is shaped and pricked with such attention to detail, the hairs emerging so regularly from the pore-like impressions. And that hand just out of reach. Shivers, all I can say is shivers. And I mean that as an extreme compliment in this case.
Tyler Graham shared with us his process of creating this thing in his bathtub. You see him open a condom, unfurl it, and then begin to fumblingly stuff it with coffee beans. He wrestled with this awkward combination of incompatible materials, and you can just feel the sticky frustration of it. Then he ties it off in this gross knot, and there we have it. It's peculiar and unpleasant, and for me, the awkward performance of making it is embodied in this abject little object.
Evil baby


If you look closely you can clearly see and object in the sky, right in the midst of this thunderstorm. If you type in search bar on the home page you will see multiple UFOs that have been filmed during thunder, one of the best ones to view occurred in Boliva, there were multiple UFOs throughout the country on the same day which give this video some credibility.
A UFO was caught on tape during a thunderstorm. In this footage, you can see what appears to be some type of disc shaped craft hovering in the lightning of the storm. At the end of the video the object can be seen moving furthur in the distances as the lightning lights up the sky.


The goal of the CCC church school program is to be a safe and comfortable space for children to explore their relationships with God. We help them learn about the teachings of Jesus and the Christian tradition. Most importantly, we teach them how to apply those lessons of love to their own lives.
All children in preschool through grade six are welcome to come to church school. It runs from September through May during our regular worship service at 9:30am.
Families start the service together in the sanctuary. Partway through the service, the pastor calls the children to the front for a special message. After that, they are dismissed to their church school classes. (The first Sunday of each month is Communion; the children leave a little bit earlier so they can come back to be with their families for Communion.) Parents are welcome to attend with their child if they would like.
We use Group Publishing's "Buzz" curriculum for our classes. These are dynamic lessons filled with games and singing and moving around. They make learning about God's love fun and engaging.
Pilgrim Fellowship aka PF is open to any youth in grades 7-12. We meet at the church on Sundays (unless an event is planned and advertised to be elsewhere) from 6.00-7:30pm.
Please join us … you can come every week … or when you can fit it into your schedule!!
We offer these programs in alternate years to 8th and 9th graders.
Confirmation is the time when a young person decides whether to join the church.
