August -- Humanizing Royalty and Power, Resilience in Darkness
The illustration of the Little King is by Michael Sowa.
Most of the great works of juvenile literature are subversive in one way or another: they express ideas and emotions not generally approved of or even recognized at the time; they make fun of honored figures and piously held beliefs; and they view social pretenses with clear-eyed directness, remarking - as in Andersen's famous tale - that the emperor has no clothes. Alison Lurie
Tales of Wonder and Kings
Power and painful events often went together, and for centuries, people found some relief in tales of wonder that humanized the king. Here are three tales that range from centuries long passed to a metaphor for today.
The photo of the King Arthur sculpture is by Emily Whitfield.
Sharing Life With a King
The narrator of the book Little King December (1993), by Axel Hacke, lives alone, works in an office, and gets occasional visits from the Little -- about three inches tall -- King. They have conversations about their different worlds. The King has experiences, insights, and questions about life. -- Here is an excerpt:
"'What do you keep in those boxes?' I asked.
'My dreams,' said King December.
'Your dreams?'
'All my dreams. One dream per box.'
'But how do you dream your dreams if you close them up in boxes?'
'In the evening, when I'm going to sleep,' said the king,' I take a box from the shelves, put it by my bed and take the lid off. Then I go to sleep and I dream. In the morning when I wake up I stay in bed for a bit and think about the night. Then I put the dream back in the box and put it back on the shelf. What did you dream about last night?' he asked. . . ."
All those from the world of the Little King, including royalty, are born small, and with time become even smaller until they can no longer be seen. When a king is born, they can write, have high mathematical ability, and have a very good memory. With each day these faculties decrease and they no longer remember or worry about past problems.
The illustration is by Michael Sowa.
The folly and arrogance of royalty, and the fear of the ruled to speak up, has never been better demonstrated than in Hans Christian Andersen's wonderful story of The Emperor's New Clothes.
"The emperor marched in the procession under the beautiful canopy, and all who saw him in the street and out of the windows exclaimed: 'Indeed, the emperor's new suit is incomparable' . . .'But he has nothing on at all,' said a little child at last. 'Good heavens! Listen to the voice of an innocent child,' said the father, and one whispered to the other what the child had said. 'But he has nothing on at all,' cried at last the whole people."
As Maria Tatar wrote, Andersen's story is timeless, universal, and enchanting.

Children and Adults Alike
"Andersen combined humor, Christian sentiments, folklore, and original plots to form tales which amused and instructed old and young readers at the same time. More than any other writer of the 19th century, he fulfilled what Perrault had begun: to write tales such as 'The Ugly Duckling', 'The Little Mermaid', and the 'Princess and the Pea' which could be readily grasped by children and adults alike."
Jack Zipes... Oxford Companion to Fairy Tales
The King Was Fooled by a Cat
The Marquis de Carabas, a creation of a boot wearing trickster cat, has been reinvented by Neil Gaiman as a major character in his novel, Neverwhere. In this world, created by Gaiman, the Marquis is the ultimate trickster and a major player with amplified characteristics of the cat known as Puss in Boots. The concept of the master trickster is centuries old. The mythic character Puss in Boots was the original creator of the Marquis de Carabas.
A written version of the story of Puss in Boots was first published in sixteenth century Italy by Giovanni Straparola in his collection of stories, The Facetious Nights (1553). Many other versions have appeared, most notably, in collections by Giambattista Basile (1639), and Charles Perrault (1697).
I think of people in time gone by, in a largely rural world, hearing the story of Puss in Boots, embellished for local consumption by storytellers in taverns, farmhouses, and the many gathering places of people in early times. Their difficult lives were ruled -- often cruelly -- by people with power: kings, nobles, clergy, and tax collectors. Puss in Boots was a story where a cat -- who could manipulate royal power through imagination, bravado, and words -- provided an occasion where even the peasant farmer, had an opportunity to laugh at the powerful.

A Profound Resonance
"Whether or not you believe in Bettelheim's Freudian take on storytelling, it is unquestionable that the best stories have a profound resonance within our subconscious minds. Some of the Grimm tales transparently address our darkest fears, but in a sense, all mythic storytelling is about addressing uncertainties and anxieties." Tim Lott The Guardian

My Return to Elizabeth Hand -- Resilience in Darkness
I have come back to Elizabeth Hand after being disturbed by the wild ride and conflicting thoughts I experienced from reading her novel Waking the Moon (2094). I am glad that I came back.
Waking the Moon involves the reader in visions, transformations, vendettas, bloody mayhem, spiritual chaos, fear, chilling awakenings and more. Hand is an exceptional writer, but I wasn't ready for this book. I also felt that there were sections that were over written. However, the writing was terrific.
I had previously read some terrific short stories and a novella with interesting characters in very real settings, where something was amiss. At some point, the fantastic became real. I was aware of something erie and dark revealing itself.
I was initially guided in large part by Hand's many awards. In fact, my introduction to Elizabeth Hand was the Nebula and World Fantasy Award winning, Last Summer at Mars Hill (1994). The protagonists are all well written and interesting and two of them are facing death. Mars Hill is a very old, weathered, spiritual colony and summer retreat on the coast of Maine. And there are sometimes apparitions. The reader is fully engaged by events and Hand's ability to give them life.
"I'm very interested in exploring the edge And I'm interested in people and artists who live on that Edge." Elizabeth Hand
Prose Poet of the Fantastic
Elizabeth Hand is one of American literature's finest prose poets of the fantastic. Her novels are powerfully lyrical, suffused with visionary agony and dreamlike eroticism; in her hands, myth reattains the nightmare energy of its origins, staining the present and the future with atavistic hues of blood. Nick Gevers in "Apocalypse Descending" (2002)
Patti Smith had a huge influence on Elizabeth Hand and her writing. From the extraordinary short story, The Erl King to the Cass Neary series, the heyday of Rock and Roll and Metal music plays a major role.
Here is a link to Patti Smith singing Because the Night at her induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
I try to maintain a balance between having a vision of the world that many readers do not experience for themselves, trying to give them enough grounding in the world we are all familiar with, so they don't feel that they are completely lost in Faerie. From an Interview by Cheryl Morgan.
The Fierce Quality of Elizabeth Hand's Writing
Below is an excerpt from an excellent review of Generation Loss by Elizabeth Hand, the first in a series of well-received turning point novels for Hand. There are now four successful books in the series revolving around the life journey of Cass Neary, a middle-aged noir antiheroine.
I am currently reading Generation Loss. Elizabeth hand won't let go. Graham Joyce (below) explains:
"Cass (Scary) Neary is a casualty of the punk rock generation, one of the minor figures in the vital but dangerous explosion of energy that characterized the New York scene in the late '70s. Some people played at punk while others lived it. Cass lived it and barely limped out of it. . . . Cass is a deeply unsympathetic principal character, a sour anti-hero who weeps without even acknowledging it to herself. That you don't want to give up on this unsavory and resistible figure is a testament to the fierce quality of Hand's writing. Her precise observations and eye for movement in the shadows are what make Cass worth watching; the desperate and declining trajectory of the burnt-out protagonist's soul keeps us rooted."
Excerpted from a review by Graham Joyce, The Washington Post
Good Writing and the Unconscious
"When it comes to writing fiction, I think the unconscious and subconscious parts of our selves are smarter than the more conscious controlling parts—because that front brain, the conscious brain, is constantly trying to please people (or, if you're a different kind of person, trying to bother people), and so the front of the brain is like a fatigued hostess. . . It's addled. So you have to get past that part of the brain. And then you can get on to something a little less self-solacing and less deformed by what you want to see and want to hear. One has to move past the stage of writing a comfort blankie for one's self—although writing itself can be, in a serious and not easy way, a kind of comfort."

Where Does the Madness End?
"A Utah company has stopped selling a kit that encases Glock handguns in Lego blocks, amid uproar and after the Danish toymaker demanded it cease and desist. . . demanding it stop producing the Block19.
Marketing the "Block19" as a "a childhood dream come to life", Culper Precision introduced it on Instagram, saying: "We wanted the second amendment to simply be too painful to tread on, so there was only one logical solution."
Red, yellow and blue blocks made the original weapon barely visible, disguising it as a child's toy.
Selling the kits for $549 to $765, the company enticed adult gun users to buy the gun "made out of the Legos you got from Santa. . . According to a report from the nonprofit Everytown for Gun Safety, the period from March to December 2020 saw a 31% increase in unintentional shooting deaths by children of themselves or others, compared with the same period in 2019.

Dog Wisdom from a Six Year Old
Dogs, Bonding and Children


When someone you love is in a wheelchair, and when getting jostled hurts them, you become acutely aware of cracks in the sidewalk. This summer my father, Steve (Pisti) Hajnoczky was in Rockyview hospital for several weeks.
Visiting him there I'd walk past these seams in the sidewalk leading up to the hospital doors, noting how the smoothed surface would not only ease transportation, but also how the gestures and splatters looked like bold abstract expressionist paintings. Photographing the sidewalks was a great way to breathe a little art into the regular walks to and from the parkade.
My desire to make art, or to find it on the sidewalk, comes from my dad. One of my earliest memories is of him explaining different ways to look at a painting. My second book of poetry, Magyarázni, was inspired by him, and by a chest he carved with beautiful Hungarian folk-art motifs.
In addition to carving, sculpting, and painting, he loved to spot art everywhere—from his bed he appreciated how beautifully the sun cast shadows on the Rockyview, and he asked me to take this photo for him.
When chemo's side effects prevented my dad first from driving and later from walking, it was my great pleasure to take him to galleries around town so that we could appreciate the shows there together.
When he couldn't paint independently, it was a joy and honour to collaborate with him on his eyeSnowScape painting series.
We had the chance to show our work at Loft 112 and Shelf Life Books (with thanks to Lisa Murphy-Lamb, Adrienne Adams, and Will Lawrence). Getting the chance to meet and connect with other art and poetry lovers put my dad over the moon. I started my Instagram account @ateacozyisasometimes to share our collaborative pieces (website coming soon).
My dad and I made new works together, along with my sister Julya, up until his last days in July.
Since my father's passing I've taken great comfort not only in appreciating his art, but also in reflecting on how he encouraged both my sister and I in all our artistic pursuits (check out her work @obscuralucida). My dad showed me that living a creative life is about taking the time to spot the beauty in the people and world around you, sharing your passions with others, and doing what makes life feel resplendent. Whenever I pick up a pen to write, a brush to paint, or the camera he gave me, I feel his love still.
Thinking about my dad, it feels like art is a gift we give each other. Let's give generously.
Helen Hajnoczky is a Calgary-based scribbler and scrawler. Hajnoczky's first book, Poets and Killers: A Life in Advertising, was nominated for Expozine's best English book of the year award and her chapbook, Bloom and Martyr, was the winner of Kalamalka Press' 2015 John Lent Poetry Prose Award.
Her newest book, Magyarázni, pairs Hungarian folk-art visual poems with written poems exploring first-generation cultural identity, and the experience of growing up with a parent who came to Canada as a refugee.

Feature Length Documentary
Inmate #1: The Rise of Danny Trejo Review
By Figures 'n' Films on July 12, 2020 • ( Leave a comment )
Let me kick this off nice and simple for anyone who doesn't want to read the whole thing and just needs that little push over the edge to watch this thing… Do it! This is absolutely the best documentary I have watched and if I could give it more than 5 out of 5 stars I would!
Best documentary I have seen is a bold claim! I've seen documentaries about drugs, gangs, murderers, professional wrestling, animals, the environment, cars… The list goes on an on, as documentaries are one of the most diverse types of films or shows out there – you can find a documentary about just about anything! So what sets this one apart?
For starters, there's the subject matter.
Danny Trejo is an exceptional human being. Just spend 2 minutes on his social media and you will find a man who is always helping out with food drives, donating his time, stopping for fans and just generally being the pillar of the community anyone could hope for.
But guess what!
He get's even better! In this documentary you see all of the work which he does (although it's a shame that the huge amount he has done through the COVID-19 outbreak hasn't made it in to the film) – there's a lot of work with addicts, alcoholics and inmates… All things which are close to him. Through this film you find out just how close those subjects are to him. From spending time in San Quentin prison for a life times worth of robberies to taking heroin when he was just 12 years old.
The fact that he's a bad boy shouldn't come as a surprise… He plays the part so damn well, because that is, or at least was him and I for one thank Hollywood for making this man a star. Not only has it given us a chance to see him in action, but it has given him a chance to do the work which he does.
The man himself isn't the only thing which makes this documentary great… Although his absolute level of honesty throughout does help massively. You don't leave wondering whether he's hiding anything… Which is what makes it so incredible that you still leave thinking of Danny Trejo as the hero who rescued a child from a car wreck (which also didn't make it in to the documentary), rather than the terror who robbed shows with a hand grenade!
Danny admits that he doesn't feel like he will ever likely make up to society for what he has done. I think if you watch this film you'll agree with everyone around him that he's made the biggest effort anyone could ever hope for and that rehabilitation is absolutely possible.
The way the story is told through his own words, interspersed with friends and family members, all telling the same big story helps to solidify this as a true account of his life, and I have to say that there is no one in the show whom you don't want to listen to… There is no one boring or unbelievable – they did a really great job of choosing who should help him tell his story.
We start off with him coming and taking a seat in what looks like a commercial building, but we spend much of the time on the street… in his neighborhood, as if he's showing us around the community he is so proud to be a part of… It feels like a chat amongst friends rather than a cloudy window in to the best parts of a celebrities life, as many of these films often end up as.
Absolutely love this and I hope a lot of people take the opportunity to learn something from this film!

Calcio tactics through time – Carlo Ancelotti's Milan (2001-2009)
Billy Wilkinson
Carlo Ancelotti – AC Milan (2001–2009)
UEFA Champions League: 2002–03, 2006–07
UEFA Super Cup: 2003, 2007
FIFA Club World Cup: 2007
Serie A: 2003–04
Coppa Italia: 2002–03
Supercoppa Italiana: 2004
Carlo Ancelotti's Milan was perhaps one of the most unique tactical sides to have dominated the early 21st century. Under the eyebrow raising Italian, Milan won two Champions League trophies, tying Barcelona for the most Champions League trophies won in the 00's. Milan made it to a third final, yes, Istanbul in 2005, but I'll try to bring that up as little as possible.
Ancelotti's reign spanned eight years, so it was natural his team went through several transformations. Arrigo Sacchi arguably had the biggest influence on Ancelotti's managerial career. Sacchi emphasised the beautiful way of playing football. With an emphasis on possession, domination and attacking football, Ancelotti understood the importance of control. There is one ball in a game of football, if you have that ball, the other team can't score, and they can't attack. Playing in midfield under Sacchi, no player understood this better than Carlo Ancelotti. It was under Sacchi that Ancelotti began to grow his obsession for central control, something that would shape his Rossoneri sides.
There is another man that Carlo Ancelotti owes a great deal of debt to, Carlo Mazzone. The now retired manager coached Brescia from 2000-2003. Andrea Pirlo was sent on loan to Brescia (his former club) from Inter Milan in 2001, it was a meeting that would change Pirlo's career. The Italian maestro was regarded as an attacking midfielder in his early career. Mazzone believed this to be a waste of Pirlo's vision and passing range, not to mention the fact that his slight frame would only limit him. Mazzone deployed Pirlo in front of the Brescia back four, as a deep lying playmaker who would dictate play. Pirlo at first was confused regarding the position change but kept his trust in Mazzone. Pirlo only played ten games for Brescia during that loan spell but Mazzone's transformation of Pirlo was something that would change Italian football as we know it.
In the same summer that Ancelotti became Milan manager (2001), Milan splashed €17m to bring Andrea Pirlo to the red side of Milan. Even then, Milan probably did not know that Pirlo would define Ancelotti's teams.
The Milan team that started the 2003 Champions League final against Juventus.
My word. What an absolutely beautiful team. It's not just the stars and big names that make this Milan side attractive, but from a tactical point of view, this team just worked beautifully like a well oiled machine. Pirlo's ability to control the edge of the middle third was unparalleled in world football at the time. This meant Gattuso and Seedorf acted as wide midfielders to add width to the notoriously narrow 4-3-1-2. Of course, width in today's game leads you to think of wide players, which Gattuso was not, but the width of Seedorf and Gattuso opened up the middle for Pirlo, and especially Rui Costa, to operate. It's all about space.
The modern attacking fullback was just starting to become a focal point of the beautiful game, but against Juventus, Milan operated with a mainly flat back four. Costacurta covering at RB even though he spent his career as a centre back. You know how in science there are chain reactions? Costacurta not being a right back that could push forward meant Gattuso was emphasised as a vastly important player. An all round dominant central midfielder, and not the slow, defensive midfielder he became known as later in his career. Rui Costa would naturally drift over to the right hand side to account for a lack of attacking prowess down that flank due to Costacurta's inability to bomb forward, forcing Seedorf to move into the occupied central space.
Speaking of Rui Costa, what a dream role he had. Playing behind one of the most dominant strikers in the early 21st century in Andriy Shevchenko, who was complemented by the poaching excellence of Pippo Inzaghi. Shevchenko's mobility, movement and status (defenders would often prioritise marking Shevchenko over Inzaghi) meant when the Ukrainian was being bombarded by defenders, his Italian teammate was able to supply the goals. It's still arguably one of the greatest one-two punches in European football.
The introduction of Jankulovski (2005) and Cafu (2003).
Brazilian right back Cafu and Czech left back Marek Jankulovski arrived in 2003 and 2005 respectively. Ancelotti was buying into the modernisation of the full back in modern football, and he bought the best right back in the world and an astute left back. This again evolved Ancelotti's 4-3-1-2/2-1. The two midfielders accompanying Andrea Pirlo would not have as much wide responsibilities, only when the field needed to be stretched against compact teams. In fact, Gattuso (mostly) must've loved playing in front of Cafu.
Cafu was the definition of a shutdown player. There was little need for anyone to drift over to the right hand side, either to help in an attacking or defending sense. The Brazilian's stamina, spatial awareness all around demi-God status made him an integral part to the narrow 4-3-1-2. Jankulovski himself was an incredibly underrated left back. Superb going forward in his time at Napoli and Udinese, he did not have to contribute as much in an attacking sense due to the all-round effectiveness of Milan's attack.
Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree.
The 2004 Scudetto winning team.
The team that avenged Istanbul in 2007.
The famed Christmas tree formation ('cause it gets wider as you go down the field, god damn it, guys) is something that will forever be associated with Carlo Ancelotti. Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite, better known as Kaká could be considered the catalyst for the Christmas tree formation. Arriving in 2003, Kaka cracked the starting line-up within months of arriving, playing behind Shevchenko, Inzaghi or Tomasson. Due to Pippo Inzaghi's injuries during the 03/04 and 04/05 season, Ancelotti looked to utilise a one striker formation. He had a surplus of midfielders, and Rui Costa (Seedorf moved into his position after he departed in 2006) and Kaka began to feature behind Andriy Shevchenko.
Kaka was everything. There isn't a single role that can define Kaka in his prime. The silkiest of enganches, the ruthlessness of a shadow striker, he was unstoppable. On the way to the 2007 Champions League final, Kaka scored 10 goals and assisted a further 5 in 15 games, his finest continental year. His performance at Old Trafford against Manchester United remains one of the most breath-taking games in the history of the Champions League.
With one of the best players in the world at their disposal, the midfield of the Christmas tree changed purpose. No longer did Seedorf and Gattuso have to do a staggering amount of running to help Pirlo facilitate and Rui Costa create. Kaka could do it all on his own. Now the midfield was focused more on control. It comes full circle. Milan won the Scudetto in 2004 and the Champions League in 2007 with their heavy control midfield, but of course, there's one event we have to talk about. Sorry.
The failure of control in Istanbul.
Sorry. Sorry to bring this up. Some Milan fans may be thinking "Istanbul? I don't recall." Whelp. That's probably because you've repressed the memory deep into your subconscious. Yeah, that's why you wake up in cold sweats at night. It's easy to just pass of the 2005 Champions League final as some kind of anomaly. Oh it was destiny. Oh there was nothing we could do. There is one thing a controlling midfield struggles with, and that's momentum.
Space is the second most important thing in football, is momentum a real thing? Well, it's not quantifiable. It's a bit of everything, mentality, self-belief, fear from the side of the opposition. Liverpool seized control in midfield and thus seized the game, once the game was tied at three apiece; the trophy was never going to be heading to Milan.
As Johan Crujff says, every disadvantage has an advantage. Ancelotti noted Milan's lack of defensive muscle in midfield with both Seedorf and Gattuso aging. Enter Massimo Ambrosini, who offered some defensive help alongside Pirlo and Gattuso, while Seedorf moved into a more advanced role in the 4-3-2-1. And of course, Milan got their revenge two years later in the 2007 final as an Inzaghi brace secured Milan's seventh European title in Athens.
What was different about Athens?
For some bizarre reason, Ancelotti has been considered quite a rigid manager, but his tactical flexibility in the 2007 final is something to be admired. Milan played with the handbrake on due to events two years prior, but Ancelotti did his best to manage his men.
The game started off in Ancelotti's favoured 4-3-2-1, going up against Liverpool's 4-2-3-1 with Javier Mascherano and Xabi Alonso sitting deep, providing excellent blocks against Seedorf and of course, Kaka. Liverpool's Steven Gerrard was also given the responsibility of being the focal point of attack and pressing Andrea Pirlo to disrupt Milan's control.
Liverpool's intent was clear. Let Alonso and Mascherano sit back and launch counter attacks through Gerrard into wide areas occupied by Liverpool wingers Jermaine Pennant and Boudewijn Zenden. Liverpool knew if they went toe to toe with this Milan side, they wouldn't be as fortunate as they were in Istanbul.
Ancelotti's adjusted 4-4-2
Ancelotti switched to more a 4-4-2 shape in the defensive phase. While Seedorf and Gattuso aren't exactly known for the defending in wide areas, simply having an extra body to beat for Pennant and Zenden limited Liverpool's counter attacks. In the attacking phase Seedorf moved up the field to help Kaka break down Liverpool's Masch-Alonso pivot. It was little adjustments like this that helped Ancelotti overcome his team's psychological deficit going into the game.
It's worth noting how much of a role Oddo played, constantly bombarding the right flank to give John Arne Riise a torrid time. Not just Oddo, of course, but Pippo Inzaghi stuck just to the right of the defence like glue. The Norwegian left back was defensively suspect and couldn't keep up with the Italian's elite movement. Which is perfectly illustrated for the second goal – here.
A closing word
In today's Italian game, we might not even see a manager last eight years at an elite club again. Carlo Ancelotti is one to be admired, only one Scudetto was delivered but Mancini and Mourinho's Inter are nothing to scoff at. Three European Cup final appearances and two cups brought home is an incredible record in modern football, even more incredible considering it was three trips in five years.
In such a tactical league such as Serie A, space is at a premium. However, Ancelotti knew how important space was to domination and winning games, and he utilised it like his mentor, Arrigo Sacchi. The tactical evolution Ancelotti went through with reverting to focusing on two attacking midfielders supporting a single striker rather one attacking midfielder supporting two strikers. Ancelotti found the best way to utilise the control and domination his Milan teams had, the team needed extra penetration as teams became more and more compact.

Youngsters receive special permission to play John Lennon song to reflect on lockdown
Young musicians in Oxfordshire have been given special permission to share a unique virtual performance of John Lennon's famous 1970s song "Imagine" that they put together during lockdown.
Oxfordshire County Council's Music Service approached the ex-Beatle's estate with the project and were thrilled to be given permission for their performance which will be shared on social media on July 3 and will be allowed to remain live until October 3.
Individual musicians had their own part in the piece recorded and they were then pieced together to re-create the familiar chart-topping 1971 song which came from an album of the same name. The video can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/Yk51u-vmjr8
Jessica Gray, Area Manager from the Music Service explained: "The recordings took place during a time when the social restrictions were starting to ease, but we still could not meet together to rehearse or perform. The message within the music, about unity, is fitting at this time as we all start to look forward to a time when our all members of all our ensembles will be able to meet together to make music again. We hope people enjoy the recording when it goes live.
Councillor Neil Fawcett, Oxfordshire County Council's Cabinet Member for Community Services and Safety said: "A lot of hard work and planning has gone in to this and the virtual nature of the performance is a reflection on the way our lives have changed since March 2020. I encourage people in Oxfordshire to take a look at this performance when it goes live and enjoy the musical skills of our young people and another example of the ingenuity and creativity of our highly-regarded music services."
Flautist Emma Lee took part in the performance. She said: "This was my first virtual orchestral recording and it is definitely more challenging compared to choral recording. I'm glad to be part of this experience knowing that the part I contributed may be small but significant when we piece the music together and listen as everyone plays in perfect harmony. This has been a difficult year, but I believe we will get through all the tough times as long as we work as one.

Sibling sexual abuse
Welcome to Learn on the go, a Community Care Inform podcast where we discuss what the latest research, practice models and policy guidance mean for your practice. This episode is about sibling sexual abuse. We spoke to Anna Glinski, deputy director, knowledge and practice development, at the Centre of expertise on child sexual abuse (the CSA Centre, for short) and Stuart Allardyce, a director of the Lucy Faithfull Foundation with responsibilities for Stop It Now! Scotland, who is one of the authors of a report the CSA Centre published in January: Sibling sexual abuse: a knowledge and practice overview. https://www.csacentre.org.uk/knowledge-in-practice/practice-improvement/sibling-sexual-abuse/ The discussion explores key themes from the report, including why sibling sexual abuse can be particularly challenging for social workers to work with, how practice can deal with the fact that both the child who has been harmed and the child who has harmed are children, supporting parents who often feel a 'grenade' has gone off in the family and struggle with shame, denial and blame, and working with the family as a whole. Anna and Stuart explain how work in these cases can actually be very hopeful in providing a window to make a significant positive difference in the lives and longer term outcomes for children and the family. Stuart mentions the confidential Stop It Now! helpline. As well as supporting anyone concerned about their own or another adult or child's sexual behaviours towards children, or about a child who may have been abused, professionals can call the helpline for case advice.

Anti-racist social work practice
In this episode, we discuss anti-racist social work in the context of the Black Lives Matter protests that have swept the US and the UK in response to the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis at the end of May. In the UK over the past ten years black people have accounted for 8% of those who have died in police custody, while accounting for only 3% of the UK population as a whole. Black people are four times as likely to be detained under the Mental Health Act as white people. And research has found that there are significant inequalities in the proportions of children from different ethnic groups in the care system. Our expert guest today is Dr Kish Bhatti-Sinclair, Reader in Social Policy and Social Work at the University of Chichester. Kish is known for her work on social work, race and racism. Towards the end of the episode, we also hear from Sarah Blackmore, executive director of strategy, policy and engagement at Social Work England. The episode covers: - What anti-racist practice is, and how it differs from anti-oppressive practice. - How anti-racist practice has developed in social work and where we are now. - How social workers, team managers and leaders can take action in the context of their own practice.

Not particularly "real food," but I figured I'd document how I make Christmas lasagna.
My family of origin is half Italian, so we always had manicotti and stuffed shells for Christmas. When I grew up and had a kid, I decided to do something similar. We always had leftover turkey in the freezer still, so no sense doing another anyway.
But being a lazy sort, I decided ricotta in pasta would be much simpler with lasagna noodles than stuffing manicotti shells. So that is what I was aiming at with my lasagna; it's not traditional with bolognese sauce and ragu. I made a pot of meatballs and sweet Italian sausage on the side. I was going for a cheesy ricotta thing here.
It also let me participate more fully in Christmas. I'd make homemade sauce a few days before, cook the meatballs and sausage a couple days before, assemble the lasagna and garlic bread and make a giant salad the night before. That way, I could be in the living room where all the action was all day, only having to pop in the kitchen long enough to reheat the pot of meatballs and sausage and throw the lasagna and garlic bread in the oven.
This is what has been "traditional" wherever I've lived and whoever was showing up for the holiday my entire life; the few occasions I showed up to someone else's home for the holiday, I brought a lasagna.
My recipe makes 2 lasagnas, as that's what a one pound box of noodles makes. With larger groups, I just do that. For a holiday like this one, with just me and my husband, I froze the second one for another time. But I've also halved the recipe; you just have to get the smaller container of ricotta and remember not to cook all the noodles.
Ingredients matter. You want to use whole milk ricotta and whole milk mozzarella, not the part-skim stuff - this recipe is intended to be amazingly yummy, not low-fat! If you want a low-calorie dish, don't make lasagna.
And no, you cannot substitute cottage cheese, which is a perfectly fine food, but not in lasagna.
You want a mild-flavored sauce, not something with intense flavors, to let the cheese shine through. If not making my own, I buy a mild marinara.
The herbs are fine to use dried if you don't have fresh. I prefer using flat-leaf parsley; the curly stuff taste like nothing to me. I also prefer to only use dry oregano, even if I have some growing; it tastes more flavorful to me.
I made this when hubby first came down from Canada to visit me. This is how good it is: the man married me!
In large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the ricotta, 1/2 cup of Parmesan, and all the herbs and mix well.
Cover with foil and bake about 45-50 minutes at 350. If you like the top layer of cheese browned, remove foil for last 5-10 minutes of baking.
TIP: If you despise part of the noodles becoming crunchy, as my husband does, make sure the noodles are FLAT on top (some lasagna pans have curved corners, you have to sort of tuck the noodle under). Save a bit of extra sauce to make sure the noodles are well covered, and consider foregoing the baking with foil off.

This heightened state of awareness reached using highly skilled relaxation techniques allows the therapist to then make appropriate suggestions.
Hypnotherapy is widely endorsed as a treatment for habit breaking, stress related issues and for a range of long-term conditions, and in recent years has been gaining steam in the medical world after a recommendation from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recognised hypnotherapy as a treatment for Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

Smoked Gubbeen and Pearl Barley, Cucumber, Pomegranate and toasted Almond Salad.
Even if you love all the razzmatazz, Christmas is certainly 'a bit of work' and can be a deeply stressful time for the cook or chef. This is exacerbated even further if you yourself or a member of the family have one or several food allergies or intolerances. Until relatively recently I never heard of anyone who had a food allergy or intolerance even though the Ballymaloe Cookery School has been in operation for thirty years and Ballymaloe House is celebrating its fiftieth year. The problem has really gathered momentum in the last decade. Nowadays between one quarter and a third of our students report a food allergy or intolerance on their booking form.
There is a very important distinction to be made between food allergies and food intolerance. The former can be life threatening e.g. a peanut allergy, the latter may cause varying degrees of discomfort.
The cause of all this will be the subject of another article in the New Year, but meanwhile I've had many requests for festive recipes suitable for vegetarians and diabetics, (recipes with low sugar options for those with blood sugar balancing issues) and those on a wheat free or dairy free diet.
My first bit of advice is to source as much local, organic, biodynamic and chemical free food as possible. You will be amazed at the difference that one change can make. Eat less meat but splurge on better quality. Gorge on organic vegetables and whole grains lightly cooked or in salads. You will need much less to feel satisfied, don't just believe me, try for yourself. Butter is a beautiful natural product but people who are dairy intolerant can substitute olive oil, coconut oil or some other oils in all recipes for soups and even cakes. A bottle of beautiful extra virgin olive oil is a shortcut to flavour and health.
Coeliacs or those with a gluten intolerance don't have to feel deprived; the turkey stuffing can be made with gluten free breadcrumbs, as can the delicious Gluten-Free Mummy's Plum Pudding with Boozy Sauce on my website, www.cookingisfun.ie. There's also a recipe for Debbie Shaw's delicious gluten free bread. Vegetarians will enjoy the chunky vegetable soup or watercress, blood orange and new seasons Toonsbridge mozzarella salad. How about Smoked Gubbeen and pearl barley, cucumber, pomegranate and toasted almond salad for the main course? Diabetics of course need to be careful not to cause an insulin spike. Jerusalem artichoke soup is the highest in insulin of any vegetable, this vital ingredient promotes healthy gut flora. This soup is suitable not just for vegetarians but also coeliacs and those with a dairy intolerance provided olive oil is substituted.
Medjool dates are a real treat enjoy them with blue cheese or in combination with oranges and fresh mint.
Recipes from Darina Allen's Simply Delicious Christmas published by Gill and Macmillan.
The rich West Cork pasture that the buffalos feed on gives the Toonsbridge Mozzarella its quintessentially Irish taste. A few beautiful fresh ingredients put together simply make an irresistible starter.
Toast the almonds in a preheated oven 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4 for 10-15 minutes. Allow to cool and then slice each almond lengthwise into 2-3 pieces.
Just before serving, scatter a few watercress leaves over the base of each plate, slice or tear some mozzarella over the top. With a sharp knife remove the peel and pith from the blood oranges, cut into 5mm (1/4 inch) thick slices, tuck a few here and there in between the watercress and mozzarella. Drizzle with honey and really good extra virgin olive oil. Scatter with toasted almonds. Finally add a little coarsely ground fresh black pepper and serve.
Pearl Barley is inexpensive and fantastically nourishing – lots of protein, vitamins, and minerals – some varieties are also high in Lysine. In tandem with other grains it's having a revival of interest in gastronomic circles. We also use it for pilaffs and to add to winter stews and casseroles like our Granny's did!
Cut the cucumber lengthways, remove the seeds, cut at a long angle into 7mm (⅓ inch) slices and add to the bowl.
Note This soup may need more stock depending on thickness required.
Peel and dice the avocados. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the avocado and chopped roasted hazelnuts over the soup, drizzle with a little hazelnut oil and chopped chives.
Antony Worrall Thompson introduced me to this Asian–inspired version of ceviche when he taught at one of his hugely entertaining classes at the cookery school. He used Asian prawns but we have adapted the recipe to use monkfish instead with great success. This is also a way of preserving fish in the short-term.
Trim the monkfish of all skin and membrane. Next, make the dressing. Whisk all the ingredients together in a bowl. Add the dressing, toss to coat evenly. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the other ingredients. Add to the monkfish and mix gently to combine.
Serve with a little shredded lettuce in little bowls or glasses, or in a martini glass for extra posh.
First make the tart. Place the pecan nuts in a dry frying pan and toast lightly, moving them around the pan constantly for 3-4 minutes, until they smell toasty. Allow the nuts to cool and then place them in a food processor and blend. Add the stoned Medjool dates and salt and blend until a dough is formed, which sticks together when pressed between your fingers.
Line an 20.5cm (8 inch) spring-form tin or use a round silicon cake mould, no lining required. Press the base evenly into the tin or mould. Place in the freezer to set for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, just barely melt the coconut oil in a pan over a very low heat. Place all of the filling ingredients, except the coconut oil, in a food processor and blend until smooth. Add the coconut oil to the filling while the motor of the food processor is running. Taste the filling and make sure it does not need a little extra sugar, vanilla or coffee essence. Pour it onto the set base and smooth out the top. Place in the fridge to set for 4 hours or freeze the tart for 2 hours and remove it from the freezer 30 minutes before serving.
Lastly make the espresso syrup.
Debbie is a nutritionist and teacher at the Ballymaloe Cookery School.
Mix all of the chopped ingredients (except those for decoration) together in a bowl or whizz briefly in a food processor. Shape into mini plum pudding and decorate with a little melted white chocolate, angelica and glace cherry.
Put all the ingredients in a saucepan and allow to reduce for 5-10 minutes until it reaches a light syrup consistency.
Serve the tart with espresso syrup and natural Greek yoghurt.
How easy can a delicious bite be – the blue cheese needs to be mild and meltingly ripe.

Jessica Ennis-Hill: Injured Olympic champion to miss indoor season
From the section Athletics
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/athletics/35500419
Jessica Ennis-Hill won World Championship gold in 2009 and 2015
Olympic heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis-Hill will miss this year's indoor athletics season because of an Achilles injury.
The 30-year-old Briton, who is also the world champion, is "really frustrated" but wants to be "100% ready" to defend her Olympic title in Rio in August.
The indoor season begins in Glasgow on 20 February.
"My priority has always been Rio and I don't want to take any risks in the short term," said Ennis-Hill.
"I am understandably frustrated but know this is the right approach."
Ennis-Hill struggled with an Achilles problem in 2013 and missed the World Championships in Moscow that year.
She also missed the entire 2014 season as she gave birth to her son.
Ennis-Hill returned to training in the autumn of that year and went on to win heptathlon gold at the 2015 World Championships in Beijing.

When Dan and I began Benjamin Ministries to help fill a void in Christ centered bereavement in our local area, around the country and the world, we were convicted to never charge for the bereavement care packages that were carefully developed to help meet the needs for those who are in the bereaving process. God made it very clear to us that He wanted to show His faithfulness in providing the needs this type of ministry would have. For the 12 years that Benjamin Ministries has been reaching out to those in the grieving process God has been faithful. He has supplied the needs of the ministry in conjunction with the number of requests for packages.
This has become very compelling in the last few months as the Lord has sought to bring the attention of Benjamin Ministries to many more bereaving people around our great nation. From January through March Ben Min delivered its normal amount of requests ranging from 10-15 packages per month, with March seeing a total of 17 requests. When April brought requests of 40 packages, we were amazed at the increase, but blessed that the needed funds were available to deliver each package. Then came another record breaking month of requests in May when we received 92 requests. Again the finances came in to allow us to deliver each package. We are currently working on June packages and currently have the needed funds to deliver each of the 70 requests that came in for that month. Half of those packages have gone out and the next half will go out over the next two weeks. That brings us to July requests, all 133 of them, bringing Ben Min's requests to an all-time high. Well, incredibly so, the funds brought into the ministry in July were also an all-time high for Ben Min!
It is a bit unnerving to not know how or from where God will bring in the funds Ben Min needs to continue reaching out to those who are hurting with our free care packages. Not more than 5 months ago we had a surplus in our bank account and could order our materials freely as the need arose for more. I am certain that God has chosen this time and unique place we are at in this ministry to clearly demonstrate His provision to His work. He wants it to be very evident that He alone "owns the cattle on 1000 hills" and desires that we trust Him all the more.
It is boldly stated on our website and brochure that our bereavement packages will remain a free gift for as long as God provides. It is through the generous donations of those who have a heart for the bereaved that He is providing for this work…His work. Though we are currently relying on His provision month by month in this phase of our ministry, we are thrilled to see Him do what He promises…remain faithful!
As I write this, we do not have all of the funds we will need to deliver all of those 133 July requests as of yet. We will begin work on the first half of those packages by the third week of August and will need to rely on God's faithfulness once again for the second half of our July requests. As we learn how to trust Him more, we hope you will follow our mission and do the same.
He is faithful! He never fails, He is the provider of any need…the key is to follow Him and let Him lead and guide and direct, and speak to you with His still small voice. He is always speaking, but we have to be still and listen. In this fast paced, hurry, hurry, world, it is hard to be still and listen, but we must train ourselves to do so.
And remember this…you can never out give God! If you are in a position of need right now, find someone or some type of work to give to. God loves a faithful giver, and the more we give to help others, the more He is faithful to meet our needs! This is a great mystery, but so very true!
As we listen to Him, He will direct us, lead us to places we never imagined we would arrive at and show us how to grow stronger than we ever thought we could be! Are you ready for the journey?
To Him be all glory and honor and praise…Amen!

No mixing of Covid-19 vaccines, everyone will get two doses of Covaxin, Covishield, says Centre
NITI Ayog member (health) VK Paul said that there has been no change in the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for vaccination.
01 Jun 2021 08:00pm IST
The Centre on Tuesday said that there will be no mixing of COVID-19 doses in India and all people will continue getting two doses of Covishield and Covaxin according to the schedule.
NITI Ayog member (health) VK Paul said that there has been no change in the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for vaccination and two doses of the same type of vaccine will be continued to be given to everyone in the country.
"There is absolutely no change in the two-dose regimen that is being followed in India for Covishield and Covaxin. If someone has received Covaxin as the first dose, their second dose too will be Covaxin. The same is applicable for Covishield too," he said.
Paul also said that the second dose of Covishield will be given after 12 weeks and the second dose of Covaxin will be given after 4-6 weeks after the first dose.
Amid fears that a probable third wave of COVID-19 may affect children, Paul assured that there will be no deficiency in the care and infrastructure required for children who may get infected
Speaking on the possibility of mixing two vaccine doses, Paul said it is not part of the vaccine schedule so far and more research is needed on it.
Image: There is absolutely no change in the two-dose regimen that is being followed in India for Covishield and Covaxin.
"Mixing of vaccine is not the protocol yet, same vaccines (Covishield and Covaxin) are to be administered for both doses. Stick to the SOP. There's international research underway on the mixing of vaccines as the possibility of a positive effect is also plausible but a harmful reaction cannot be ruled out either. It is an unresolved scientific question, science will settle it," he added.
Amid fears that a probable third wave of COVID-19 may affect children, Paul assured that there will be no deficiency in the care and infrastructure required for children who may get infected.
"COVID-19 in children is often asymptomatic and rarely requires hospitalization. However, changes in epidemiological dynamics or viral behaviour can change the situation and increase the prevalence of infection. No undue burden has been placed on paediatric care infrastructure so far. However, it is possible that 2% - 3% of children who get infected may need hospitalization," he added.
He also said that a National Expert Group has been formed to review COVID-19 infections in children and approach the pandemic in a renewed way, to strengthen the nation's preparedness.

Alejandro Valverde injured after hitting barrier during training ride
Spanish star Alejandro Valverde receives injuries after riding into barrier during a training ride, his Movistar team confirm
Nigel Wynn January 12, 2017 12:29 pm
Ion Izaguirre
Alejandro Valverde has suffered injuries after reportedly crashing into a barrier during a training ride, and says that he can 'barely move at the moment'.
In a statement issued by his Movistar team on Wednesday evening, Valverde said that he had injured his arm and chest in the incident.
>>> Alejandro Valverde says he won't ride all three Grand Tours again in 2017
"It was a really hard blow," Valverde said. "The barriers of the housing estate went down before I was through, and I hit [it] straight with my arms and chest.
"I tried to continue with my ride, but I could carry on for only 30 more minutes, because it really hurt."

— Movistar Team (@Movistar_Team) January 11, 2017
The 36-year-old Spaniard said that he is treating in the injury with ice to try and keep the inflammation to a minimum.
"I'm putting some ice on the areas and anti-inflammatories should prevent the injury from going any further, but it could get worse tomorrow when the areas start to heal in cold.
"Happily, it seems like it's all a muscle thing, but to be honest, I can barely move at the moment."
The team says that a decision regarding Valverde's presence at today's Vuelta a España route presentation would be made prior to the event.
Last year, Valverde won La Fleche Wallonne for a third consecutive time, a stage of the Giro d'Italia and third overall, and overall victories in the Vuelta a Andalucia and Vuelta a Castilla y Leon. He also supported Colombian team-mate Nairo Quintana to third place in the Tour de France and victory in the Vuelta a España.
Valverde himself won the Vuelta a España in 2009. Last year was the first time that Valverde has ridden all three Grand Tours in the same season, and his first outing in the Giro.

Home/Crime/Did Syrian refugees rape a young girl at knifepoint in Idaho?
Did Syrian refugees rape a young girl at knifepoint in Idaho?
Joe NewbyJune 21, 2016
Earlier this month, KMVT reported that a sexual assault "possibly occurred" near the Fawnbrook Apartments in Twin Falls, Idaho. The assault reportedly took place on June 2 and Twin Falls County Prosecutor Grant Loebs said there will be no charges filed in the case until the police investigation is complete.
One blog reported:
Here are the details as reported by a Twin Falls resident-
The little girl being born very premature she is less developed for her age.
The little girl was at the FAWNBROOK apartment buildings where both her parents and grandmother reside. She was playing in between those two apartment units when 3 boys (from 2 Syrian refugee families, ages 8, 10, 13) pulled a knife on her, held it to her throat, forced her into the laundry unit, stripped her naked, raped, and urinated on her. The 13 year old "coached" the younger boys as he videoed. Due to age restraint the boys could not ejaculate but did urinate on her.
THE VICTIM'S GRANDMOTHER DISCOVERED THE SITUATION AND IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE VICTIM'S MOTHER WHO CALLED TWIN FALLS POLICE DEPARTMENT.
Infowars added: "The perpetrators were three Syrian youths aged 8, 10 and 13, with the oldest boy directing the assault."
The report also said that "around 50 Syrian 'refugees' are reportedly housed at the Fawnbrook site."
But, Betsy Z. Russell reported at the Spokesman Review, that story is false:
A story that's circulating on social media and anti-Muslim and conspiracy-oriented websites is falsely claiming that three young Syrian refugees raped a young girl at knifepoint at an apartment complex in Twin Falls that supposedly is the site where about 50 Syrian refugees had been resettled – when in fact, no Syrian refugees have been resettled to Twin Falls.
The story also charges that police failed to respond to the alleged incident in a timely fashion, which local authorities also say is false.
"There was no gang rape, there was no Syrian involvement, there were no Syrian refugees involved, there was no knife used, there was no inactivity by the police," said Twin Falls County Prosecutor Grant Loebs. "I'm looking at the Drudge Report headline: 'Syrian Refugees Rape Little Girl at Knifepoint in Idaho' – all false."
The story, pushed by local anti-refugee activists who spoke out at a recent Twin Falls City Council Meeting, stems from a June 2 incident between four children at a low-income apartment complex in Twin Falls. Two older boys, 10 and 14, boys allegedly incited a 7-year-old boy to act inappropriately with a 5-year-old girl, in a laundry room at the complex.
Moreover, Russell said, there are 35 Syrian refugees in Idaho, and they're all in Boise.
Here's video of a somewhat contentious city council meeting where residents want answers:
So, what, exactly, happened?
According to KTVB:
Reports that the boys are Syrian are false, Loebs said. He said there is no evidence that the alleged sexual assault happened at knifepoint and said any online report that says this was a gang rape is false.
However, he said three boys who are not Americans by birth were involved in the reported sexual assault of a 5-year-old girl on June 2 at the Fawnbrook Apartments.
Loebs said the boys – ages 7, 10 and 14 – all allegedly participated in the assault. Only one, however, is suspected of having physical contact with the girl.
The two older boys are from the Sudan in Africa, Loebs said, and the youngest is from Iraq. Loebs said he doesn't believe they are recent refugees, but he said he doesn't know when or how they came to the U.S.
The 10-year-old and the 14-year-old were taken into custody on Friday, Loebs said. They were taken into custody a day after the prosecutor's office got the case and filed charges.
So it appears that the alleged perpetrators are migrants, just not from Syria…
There's enough outrage here to make everyone's head explode.
It seems that some of the initial details reported may have been incorrect, and the media is right to set the record straight, but it's outrageous to suggest that it's bigoted to be upset over news that a little girl was assaulted by migrants.

Sanyo Securities Company Limited was a Japanese investment bank founded in 1910 that at the end of the 80s was one of the largest banks in the country. When the bubble burst it became insolvent and ended up declaring bankruptcy in 1997; by 1999 all its operations had finished. In the boom times Sanyo Securities had its own leisure resort that could be used by its almost 5,000 employees to spend their holidays next to Lake Yamanaka. It was a hotel only used by employees.
After taking photos of the abandoned house and eating a good steak in a restaurant next to the lake we arrive with our car to the entrance of the leisure resort for Sanyo Securities employees. It has been abandoned for more than 10 years and it's the only thing left from the company; the office building that they had in Tokyo is now being used by Sumitomo.
Behind the main building we can see the entrance to what was one of the main vaults of the investment bank, most likely it was used to keep gold. We are a little bit scared but here we go!
We arrive until the end of the hallway. Even though the floor is slippery, it's quite easy to move around. A good amount of light enters through a skylight. We turn to the left and we see the first door of the bank vault. It's closed and it looks very heavy but it's easy to open. After this first door everything is pitch black; my instinct tells me that we shouldn't keep going but Carlos, the bravest of us, starts walking using his iPhone to light up the way.
Inside there is a big door that gives access to what seems to be the main vault. In the wall there are several symbols (logos) of Sanyo Securities. For some reason… none of us is brave enough to enter the room but we take some photos from the entrance.
Another one for the Sadako photo series.

Who is Janna Thomas?
Bloc Loc has been created by husband and wife team, Paul and Janna Thomas. Paul, an Australian, was an aircraft maintenance engineer and Janna, an American, is the author of Courtship Quilts; Inspired by the Victorian Language of Flowers, published by Martingale & Co 2005 and a quilt designer.
Now based in Loveland Colorado, Bloc Loc manufactures, distributes and sells their own patent pending products which are new and innovative, made of the highest quality materials by the old fashioned standard of making products which are built tough enough to last from one generation to the next!
Because Bloc Loc is the manufacturer, distributors and retail sales – mark ups are low, and the savings are passed on to you, the customer.

Most of Bloc Loc's products are available in many local quilt shops across the world.
We're a family affair in the classic tradition of quilting.
Before becoming a professional quilter, Janna was a Home Economics teacher. After finding her passion for quilting, Janna wrote her first book, "Courtship Quilts: Inspired by the Victorian Language of Flowers" in 2005. It was a Thanksgiving holiday that set her business fate. Her mother came for dinner, toting a ruler with duct tape on it, explaining that the tape stopped the rocking and slipping but she couldn't see through the tape. As an airplane engineer, Paul knew what to do to bring his mother-in-law's idea to fruition. He made a machined groove in an acrylic ruler, and Bloc Loc was born. The first Bloc Loc ruler went into production in early 2010 and they've revolutionized quilting tools ever since.
Bloc Loc wanted to bring their products into Australia with the ability to offer customers cheaper postage costs and as such Bloc Loc Rulers Pty Ltd was born in Australia.

SYFY revealed on Wednesday the show will come to an end after the ninth 10 episodes long instalment, after losing a significant amount of viewers.
Meghan and her co-star Patrick J. Adams, (Mike Ross) both left the show at the end of season seven.
The final episode of that season saw Rachel and Mike finally tie the knot , before leaving for Seattle.
