Diamonds have long been associated with engagement and marriage.
But a diamond that's going to be a girl's best friend doesn't necessarily have to break the bank — in part thanks to the increasingly popularity of lab-created diamonds.
Man-made diamonds offer a real advantage over the real deal: They tend to be priced about 30% cheaper on average than natural stones. And most gemologists can't tell the difference because the new breed of lab-created stones have the exact same chemical signature as natural diamonds.
The market for lab-created diamonds tends to skew younger. An emerging social backlash around natural diamonds and their drawbacks was fueled in part by the 2006 Leonardo DiCaprio movie, Blood Diamond.
The film laid bare the violence that accompanies the diamond trade and the inherently dangerous and ecologically disastrous mining practices behind the so-called 'conflict diamond' industry.
So, it's a sign of the times that the percentage of people who favor natural diamonds is shrinking. According to a 2015 study, only 45% of consumers between the ages of 18 and 35 said they prefer natural diamonds to lab-created diamonds.
The market is for lab-created diamonds is broadening every year. Consulting company Bain says production of lab diamonds is up by 15% to 20% a year, according to reports. Still, lab-grown diamonds only have roughly 2% of total market share.
However, that could change soon thanks to a collapse in production costs for lab-grown diamonds. A 1-carat lab diamond used to cost an average of around $4,000 to create in 2008. Just 10 short years later, that price plummeted to between $300 and $500 last year.
The decrease in production costs is driving a surge in discounts on the lab stones. One diamond industry analyst cited by the Financial Times noted the average discount for a 1 carat lab-grown stone compared to a natural diamond increased from 29% per cent in January 2018 to 43% by the end of the year.
Traditional players in the diamond business can no longer ignore all the buzz around lab-created diamonds. In fact, industry incumbent De Beers announced in May of last year that it would begin selling man-made diamonds with transparent pricing starting in September 2018.
With De Beer's new service, Lightbox, you'll be able to buy a 1-carat lab-created diamond in pink, blue or white for $800. Then you can have them set the stone in silver ($100) or 10-carat gold ($200), resulting in a beautiful man-made diamond ring for $1,000 or less.
As for presentation, the diamond you order from Lightbox comes in a candy-colored cardboard box. Sure, it's not exactly the famed Tiffany Blue Box, but your ring sure will be a lot cheaper.
The power of the Internet makes shopping for a man-made diamond easier than ever. Below are some options.
As always, money expert Clark Howard recommends shopping around to get the perfect lab-created diamond of your dreams.
The consumer champ likes the idea of lab-created diamonds as a way to save money, but says the decision really comes down to personal preference.
"This isn't cubic zirconia we're talking about here. These diamonds have an identical chemical makeup — not similar, identical — to a diamond that is dug out of the earth. These man-made diamonds are starting to appear in more and more retail stores and you just flat-out save money," Clark says.
If you fall into that latter category, Clark has long talked about Costco as a great place to buy your natural diamonds because of the tightly controlled markup in price.

White House expected to drop Pentagon nominee Elaine McCusker amid Ukraine fallout

Trump impeachment witness Fiona Hill gets book deal
The White House is expected to pull the nomination of Elaine McCusker to be the Pentagon's comptroller and chief financial officer in the latest staffing fallout from President Trump's impeachment, The Post has learned.
McCusker resisted the president's directive to stall about $250 million in military aid to Ukraine and her emails protesting the delay were leaked in January to the blog Just Security ahead of Trump's Senate trial.
"This administration needs people who are committed to implementing the president's agenda, specifically on foreign policy, and not trying to thwart it," a White House official told The Post.
McCusker's fate has been subject to intense interest within the White House in the wake of the Senate's vote to acquit Trump on Wednesday. It's unclear if a final decision has been made on the timing of the nomination withdrawal.
It's also unclear how the withdrawal would impact McCusker's current role as acting comptroller and CFO of the Pentagon.
Neither McCusker nor her Pentagon spokesman would comment.
McCusker would join several others dismissed over Ukraine. On Friday, Trump recalled his ambassador to the European Union, Gordon Sondland, who testified during House impeachment proceedings, and the National Security Council dismissed both Ukraine adviser Alexander Vindman, who testified, and his twin, Yevgeny, an attorney for the agency.
Trump defenders say the president lawfully stalled Ukraine aid to conduct a policy review of matters such as corruption, and deny the central impeachment allegation that he did so to force Ukraine to investigate Democrats including former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter, who was on the board of a Ukrainian energy firm.

The Trump administration fired Gordon Sondland — who testified against...
In emails published ahead of Trump's trial, McCusker repeatedly prodded the White House budget office, arguing that stalling too long would prevent the funds from being spent by the end of the fiscal year in violation of the law.
The White House budget office specified that planning to dispense the funds was allowed during the period of the Trump-ordered hold, which ended on Sept. 11.
Budget official Michael Duffey wrote to McCusker: "If you are unable to obligate the funds, it will have been DoD's decision that cause any impoundment of funds."
McCusker responded in a leaked email: "You can't be serious. I am speechless."
The Senate confirmed McCusker to be deputy undersecretary of defense (comptroller) in August 2017 and she took over the duties of her former boss, David Norquist, in July when he became deputy secretary of defense. Trump nominated McCusker to replace Norquist in November.
The senior Defense Department position comes with a $176,900 salary.
McCusker graduated in 1989 from the University of Dallas and worked three years in the early 2000s as a professional staffer for the Senate Armed Services Committee, which would have considered her nomination.
According to McCusker's official biography, she worked in the Pentagon comptroller office previously during the Obama administration and as director of resources and analysis at the headquarters of US Central Command at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida. She won the Joint Distinguished Civilian Service Award in 2017 and the Department of Defense Medal for Distinguished Civilian Service Award in 2016.

Chloe Bennet Left The CW's 'Powerpuff Girls' Live-Action Series
Posted on August 11, 2021 August 11, 2021 inCW NETWORK, LIVE ACTION SERIES, NEWSLeave a comment
The CW has lost a Powerpuff Girls. Chloe Bennet has left the Powerpuff pilot, which is presently being reworked for a possible series. In the network's initial attempt at adapting the popular Cartoon Network cartoon series into a live-action sitcom, Bennet portrayed Blossom (middle in the top photo).
Bubbles and Buttercup will be played by Dove Cameron and Yana Perrault, respectively.
According to an insider, Bennet did not sign her offer because of schedule conflicts while arranging new arrangements for Powerpuff to extend the performers' availability for the upcoming pilot cycle. In the autumn, casting for the third Powerpuff girl will begin.
Heather Regnier and Diablo Cody, the show's executive producers, are still on board. Powerpuff has been in development since 2020, with a fall 2021 release date being considered. In May, the CW concluded that the project needed to be reworked.
"The reason we do pilots is, sometimes things miss," The CW chairman and CEO Mark Pedowitz told reporters at the time. "We believe in the cast and in [writers Diablo Cody and Heather Regnier] and [executive producer Greg Berlanti] and studio Warner Bros. In this case, the pilot didn't work. Because we see enough elements in there, we wanted to give it another shot. It may have felt a little too campy and not rooted in reality. You learn things when you test things out. We felt, 'Let's take a step back and go back to the drawing board.' This is a powerful property, it engaged a lot of interest, and we want to get it right."

Art Basel is a leading international contemporary art fair at which art professionals, collectors and enthusiasts come together to network and do business for one week each year.
Roche Bobois was fortunate enough to work on Elle Décor magazine's Concept House, the Modern Life Concept House, for the 2015 event.
The two top floors of an impressive duplex in the heart of Miami's Wynwood Arts District were completely redesigned and redeveloped for the occasion.
This environment provided the perfect inspiration for designer Sam Robin when creating the master bedroom suite, using some of Roche Bobois most iconic pieces including the Furtif desk, Transpace wall unit, Brio bed and Lady B armchairs. Prominently featured as the bedroom backdrop, artist Alex Turco created custom artwork to complement the sleek and luxurious setting and to contrast with the concrete wallpaper that is exclusive to Roche Bobois.

CADTalk utilizes a configurable framework to standardize the integration between CAD/PDM software and SYSPRO. That way you will have the flexibility that you need without the downsides of custom built solutions.
CADTalk can directly read the native CAD file formats. It is very common for companies to have a Manufacturing Engineer or downstream production person entering stock codes, structures and routings in SYSPRO. Using CADTalk, those users will be able to directly read the native CAD formats from their engineers or outside customers without requiring a full license of the CAD software. In addition to the above supported CAD Systems, CADTalk also supports reading any text based file format such as xml, csv, fixed width, or delimited file.
Sometimes users need to make manual changes to the Bill of Material or items before they are transferred to SYSPRO. CADTalk provides an interface that has been engineered to be the quickest and most intuitive BOM editor you have ever used. In fact, most users prefer CADTalk over the structures and routings screen in SYSPRO! Here are just a few of the things you can do with the CADTalk editor.
Add existing or new Structures to the BOM.
CADTalk is not limited to just a single level BOM! Users can open up an entire assembly and translate every level of the CAD assembly into a fully indented BOM for SYSPRO.
Don't worry about creating all those stock codes before creating the structures and routings. CADTalk can do that too! If an item doesn't exist in the SYSPRO, CADTalk will create the stock codes along with the structures and routings.. Users also have to ability to edit all stock code fields (including custom form fields) within the CADTalk user interface prior to transfer.
Users can view CAD Images directly inside the user interface. These images can also be sent to the SYSPRO multimedia.
CADTalk can edit existing stock codes and their structures and routings. Need to make a edit why not use CADTalk's cutting edge BOM editor to make the job simple. Want to create a new item quickly? You can do that too!
CADTalk supports all the fields that you need to create stock codes, structures, and routings in SYSPRO, including custom form fields! CADTalk also supports multimedia. Also, all of these fields can be mapped from any CAD property including custom properties!


Howdy! Welcome to the Department of Health and Kinesiology at Texas A&M University.
The Department of Health & Kinesiology has outstanding faculty, staff, students, and facilities and has been consistently recognized as one of the nation's largest and best programs in our field. Our faculty and students are actively engaged in the practice and study of physical activity, sport and health that is making a national and international impact.
The department is comprised of four divisions including Health Education, Kinesiology, Sport Management, and the Physical Education Activity Program (PEAP). Department majors prepare for careers in allied health, athletic training, applied exercise physiology, basic exercise physiology, community health, clinical exercise physiology; dance science, motor behavior, motor neuroscience, school health (teacher certification), sport management, sports pedagogy (teacher certification), and sports physiology. Our allied health, motor behavior, basic exercise physiology, and applied exercise physiology programs provide relevant preparation and opportunities for students to take necessary pre-requisites for seeking entry into professional schools like nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, dentistry, and medicine or graduate study in our fields.
The department also has minors in coaching, dance, and sport management; emphases programs in sport conditioning and sport leadership; and, offers health & fitness activity courses that serve all students at Texas A&M University. The department is home to one Institute, three Centers, and 17 research and teaching labs that conduct basic and applied research designed to improve quality of life in healthy and diseased populations ranging from children to older adults. Undergraduate and graduate students are actively engaged with faculty in research and service activities.
The department has become a university leader in a number of areas including being ranked first at Texas A&M University in class count (over 1,700 per year) and student enrollment (3,948 majors and about 430 minors). The department generates over 98,000 student credit hours and 205,000 weighted student credit hours each year, which consistently ranks us among the top three departments at the University. According to the latest National Research Council (NRC) ranking of doctoral programs, our doctoral program in Kinesiology was ranked as high as 2nd nationally (the highest rated Ph.D. program at Texas A&M) and other national organizations have ranked our Health Education and Sport Management programs among the top programs nationally. The National Academy of Kinesiology recently ranked our doctoral program in Kinesiology tied for 7th nationally with the University of Florida.
We are very proud of the contributions our students, faculty, and staff have made in positioning our department as not only the largest in the nation, but also one of the best! We hope that our website helps you gain insight as to the many outstanding faculty, programs and activities within HLKN.

Let's stick with sport for a minute because we're going to have a look at a really intense game called squash. It used to be really popular back in the 1980s but since then it's fallen even further behind other racquet sports like tennis. Tash caught up with some up-and-coming squash players who think the game is awesome and are on their way to be a big hit.
I really like Squash.Squash is very good for our Health.
I like the look of Squash and I hope that I get to give it a go one day.
NATASHA THIELE, REPORTER: This is the speedy game of Squash! To be good at it, you need to be fit because it takes lots of short bursts of energy to get around the court.
Curtis and Bianca train a couple of times a week. They're gearing up for the Australian Junior Nationals in October. Most kids their age are more familiar with a tennis racquet than a squash racquet. But for them, this is the best game around.
BIANCA, SQUASH PLAYER: I really like playing squash because it's like a fast-paced game and I've met lots of people through it.
CURTIS, SQUASH PLAYER: There's not a huge amount of young kids that play, but with just a few more school programs and that kind of stuff, we should get the sport going.
There are lots of ideas about how squash started. One theory is that prisoners started playing a similar game to squash in their cells and in prison yards. The sport was eventually developed in England and turned into something like the game we see today. For a while in the 1980s, squash became really popular but it's faded away a bit since then.
So what do you need to know about squash? Let's start with the ball. Before the game starts, the rubber ball needs to be warmed up. That can be done by hitting it a few times really hard or to save time; a ball warming machine like this can be used.
REPORTER: To give you an idea, the cold ball shouldn't bounce as much as what the warmed up one will, so let's check it out.
In competitive games, the ball can reach speeds of around 300 kays an hour! A squash court is a bit like a cube. Professional courts are made out of glass so spectators can watch from all angles. You need to hit the ball between the top line and the bottom line of the wall. Once you've hit it, the best idea is to get back to the T-shape in the middle of the court. It's the best place to attack from. Like tennis, the ball can only bounce once. To win it's the best of 5 games. It's also important to concentrate on where your opponent is, otherwise you could get hit!
CURTIS, SQUASH PLAYER: I've been hit with the ball a couple of times, it hurts a little but you'll get over it pretty quick and just general sport injuries like a torn muscle can occur just with any other sport.
Although squash is a sport in the Commonwealth Games, it hasn't made it to an Olympic level. It's something clubs and players have been pushing for over the years. And if it does happen, these guys will be going for gold!
The war in Libya has been headline news for the last week as rebels fought for and gained control of the capital ousting dictator Colonel Gaddafi in the process. It's been an epic struggle for the people of that country that has been brought to us each night by reporters risking their lives as they travel with the rebel army. But why do reporters put themselves in such danger all for a story.
Qantas has been in the news recently as it plans to cut lots of jobs. Among the staff affected will be the Qantas pilots. But other than sitting up the front in their smart uniforms what do pilots actually do? Well, as Kirsty found out behind every safe flight is a whole lot of maths.
Often people try to change the way they look. It might be a new hair-style or trying to grow big muscles at the gym. But there's one part of your body that can also change shape depending on fashion. It's your feet. Experts are worried that kids cramming their toes into the wrong kind of footwear could lead to some big problems for their feet. Here's Tash.
How do you feel about getting up in front of a large group of people and giving a speech? Well most of us would dread it. But a film about a King who felt the same way has inspired kids to make their own voices heard. The school has a special connection to the Oscar-winning film 'A King's Speech' and now they're using that connection to try to bring back a dying art.

Democratic Senator Harry Reid is proposing a "green" power grid that the Federal Government would have authority over, including where to build the lines and who would pay for it.
The Senate's top Democrat on Thursday proposed new federal authority to build special power lines that carry renewable energy -- like solar and wind power -- from remote places.
"Reforming our energy policies to build a cleaner, greener national transmission system -- an electric superhighway -- must be a top national priority," Reid said in a statement.
So the Federal Government would be able to dictate where these power lines would be installed and, not only that, who would pay for them. Don't want a new power line going up over your house? Too bad, oh, and you're paying for it.
Once again the Federal Government, under the Democrats, presumes to know best. This is bound to raise issues of states' rights.
Additionally, in a video on Reid's web page , he explains that this legislation is necessary so that White Pine County can export the energy they generate via solar power to Reno and Las Vegas. How about if it makes financial sense for White Pine County to export energy, or if the local energy company sees an opportunity, that they pay for the new power lines necessary to get the electricity where it is needed? Why does the Federal Government need to pay for this?
Also, as an electrical engineer (in addition to being a brilliant political and economic commentator), I want to let Harry Reid in on a dirty little secret that we engineers try to hide from the public: Energy is energy. Whether it comes from renewable sources or coal-burning plants, the end result is electricity. There's no such thing as special "green" power lines. There can be more efficient energy production, but a power cable is a power cable is a power cable. The power line doesn't care whether the energy it is carrying was produced by hydro, solar, coal, natural gas, burning old newspapers, or a million hamsters running on treadmills.
There are certainly issues with the unreliable fluctuations of power generated from wind turbines and solar panels; and if there is an expectation that the new power generation will generate more power than the current grid can handle then certainly you need more capacity.
But there's nothing "green" about the power lines themselves unless you paint them that color.


Chiropractic for Lower Blood Pressure?
According to a placebo-controlled study, chiropractic adjustment can substantially lower high blood pressure.
25 people diagnosed with early-stage high blood pressure partook in an eight week study where half the group received chiropractic adjustments and the other half received faux adjustments. None of the patients took blood pressure medicine during the study.
Compared to the faux-treated patients, those who got the real chiropractic adjustments saw an average 14 mm Hg greater drop in systolic blood pressure (the top number in a blood pressure count), and an average 8 mm Hg greater drop in diastolic blood pressure (the bottom blood pressure number).
Before and after X-rays showed that chiropractic adjustments were able to realign the Atlas vertebra at the top of the spine, which in turn worked to bring blood pressure down to significantly more acceptable levels. Some scientists suggest that injury to the Atlas vertebra may trigger internal signals that make the arteries contract and increase blood pressure.
If you or someone you know is treating high blood pressure with costly medication, perhaps it's time to give chiropractic adjustments a try. With a few simple adjustments, you may be on your way to a healthier, improved quality of life.


We're in the mood for a little something, so we're declaring Small Bites Week: We're serving up a week's worth of tasty, relatively heathful appetizers, no utensils required.
First up, a sweet and savory dip we couldn't stay away from. And that's OK, because it's pretty darn good for you: no added fat or sugar. Its rich, vibrant color is a nice alternative to the family of onion, ranch, sour cream dips. This went over well with kids and adults -- my 5-year-old would eat this with a spoon. Me too.
This sweet, healthful dip pairs beautifully with celery and jicama, but I like it best with homemade whole-wheat pita chips (recipe follows). You can use roasted red peppers from a jar, but it's easy enough to make your own. Makes about 2 cups of dip.
Combine all ingredients in the work bowl of a food processor and puree. Refrigerate four hours to overnight.
Wash and dry sweet bell peppers. Slice in half and remove seeds and membranes. Lightly spray a baking sheet with olive oil and lay peppers cut-side down. Broil for 10 to 20 minutes until pepper skins are charred and blistered. Transfer hot peppers to a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Wait at least 15 minutes, then remove peppers and slip off blistered skins. Use peppers immediately, store in refrigerator (I don't know how long they keep -- ours disappear within days), or freeze.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut whole-wheat pitas into 8 wedges, then split each wedge in half to form 16 triangles. Spritz with olive oil spray or brush lightly with olive oil; squeeze a few drops of lemon juice over them and sprinkle with sea salt. Lay pita wedges on a baking sheet and bake for 5 to 7 minutes, until crisp and lightly browned. Store in an airtight container.

Cooling is one of the keys to great PC performance. Even menial computing tasks tend to Considerably heat up the interior components of even the best build. Hence, after figuring out how many fans or what fan size you need, it is time to find the best one.
In this brief article, we list the 6 best 140 mm case fans in 2019.
Corsair has been around for a long time and is known for their cooling products. This time, they offer a low-to-middle range case fan in the form of the ML140 Pro LED. We suppose that the "ML" in its model name stands for magnetic levitation, which is the technology that this fan uses.
The main benefit of that feature is that it reduces noise a lot, and as an avid computer nerd, you know how problematic and awful noise can get. The rotor has a customized design. According to Corsair, this rotor form allows for a balance between high airflow and high static pressure.
The only problem we are hearing about is that some users were sent loud fans. However, such reports are few and may thus refer to isolated issues only.
We like this neat fan from Corsair because we believe it gives great value for money. If you do not use your PC too intensively, then this may cut it for you. Its features are by no means advanced, but it does the basics well.
We have another budget case fan on the list. This one from Thermaltake has been making the rounds recently and getting good reviews. For an affordable case fan, this model is surprisingly cool and efficient, as many would agree.
It utilizes a technology called concentrated compression blade (or simply CCB). According to the manufacturer, this feature is designed to address intensive cooling requirements by focusing the inner circle of air outward.
Meanwhile the so-called wind blocker frame is meant to attain high static pressure. The best thing is that it comes with a 3-year warranty.
In general, this case fan appears ideal for any PC builder on a budget. Similar to all other products on the market today, this model has its share of imperfections. However, we think that the Pros still outweigh the Cons.
As a high-end case fan, the MasterFan Pro 140 sure delivers a lot. We think this is an ideal choice if you are looking for a good, high-performance case fan and have some cash to spare.
First, this model is available in numerous variants, which is good news if you are looking for a particular design that matches your build theme. The RGB colors themselves are customizable, so you can make everything look synchronized.
According to the company behind it, this case fan uses a certain silent cooling technology. This appears to be working wonderfully because noise is nearly nonexistent here. It also has a high-tech smart sensor to prevent jamming. Literally, how cool is that?
Expensive case fans are not for everyone. This model is recommended for serious builders. The colors are customizable, the fan is quiet, and overall efficiency is good.
According to the company behind this product, this case fan reduces the level of noise by as much as 24%. The airflow is reported to be "12/14 40.6/51.1 CFM." The fans themselves come in multiple colors, which is great when you are going for a certain build theme.
Just like the other fan from the same manufacturer in this list, this model makes use of the technology called concentrated compression blade, which forces the inner (weaker) circle of air outward. Consequently, the outer section pressurizes and compresses the air.
One unique feature in this product is the anti-vibration mounting system, which are really just rubber pads built through mold injection. These pads protect the four corners and offer an 80% coverage.
If you have been building PCs for a little while and are climbing up the fan ladder just now, it may be high time you tried this model from Thermaltake. It is not too cheap but not too expensive either and offers neat features.
The noise level of this case fan model from Corsair is merely 24 dBA, and airflow is at 67.8 CFM. The static pressure is up to 0.84 mm/H20, and the fan speed can reach 1150 rpm. It needs merely .1A to run, and the colored rings come in red, white, and blue.
This is a low-to-middle-end fan model that falls under the Quiet Edition product line. It comes with mounting screws and a voltage step-down adapter. All it needs is a standard 3-pin fan connector.
The only recurring complaint we see so far is the one about the blades. Apparently, they can break even during installation if not handled properly. This is surprising, Considering how case fans are supposed to withstand harsh operation environments to begin with.
We love the look of this case fan from Corsair. Moreover, as promised, it is indeed a silent fan. The only apparent issue at this point is that there are isolated reports about the blades breaking off easily. However, these complaints are low in frequency.
For a very affordable fan, this model has a generous warranty (2 years). However, we figured there would be very little to fix if there was very little in the product to start with. Do not get us wrong. This can actually be an advantage.
Just to go over the specs of the NZXT FN V2 case fan, it measures 140 x 140 x 27 mm and has a speed of 1000 rpm. However, air flow is merely 50 CFM, which is leagues away from that of other models.
According to the manufacturer, this case fan has a noise level of only 21 dBA, which is admittedly impressive.
If you are looking for a case fan that looks good and can be matched with any theme while keeping expense at the lowest, we suggest that you go for this.

BBLOC History
Director: Aubrey Budd
Musical Director: Ian Peters
Sadly Ricky suffered a heart attack and was unable to continue with the production and Aubrey Budd subsequently took over. Aubrey had worked as a Dancer, Artistic Director, Choreographer and Actor in West End shows and on TV. He was also a Lecturer at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.
The Echo called it a ' classy and slick show ' which was ' a credit to amateurs '
Massive scramble in the interval for Props and Stage Crew to get rid of any water that might have escaped onto the stage in the 'Singin' in the Rain' number.
Simon Leaton who played Cosmo Brown, fell and dislocated his shoulder while rehearsing for 'Make 'em Laugh' [it certainly didn't have that affect on him!]
Barry Howard took over as President
Director: Ricky Price
Musical Director: Mike Reynolds
Ricky's second production of 'CAROUSEL' for the company – this time with traditional scenery.
' They just seem to get better and better! Regular BBLOC audiences have come to expect shows of the highest standard and this production is no exception. It could easily have been staged in the West End and held its own among the professional ranks. ' [Echo]
Gary Wilmot came to meet the company and give them some tips from his experience in the show.
DID YOU KNOW? When the war was declared in 1939 and all theatres closed as a precaution, 'ME AND MY GIRL' was the first show to re-open, with afternoon performances. The Lambeth Walk became a dance craze when simple dance steps were put together by Adele England of the Locarno Dance Circuit, which had 300 venues and bands. Part of the song's success was that it was danced in a group with no partners as such, which was a great asset when the men started to go off to war shortly afterwards.
Director: Judi Campbell
It was the Southern area amateur premier of the show, produced once again by Judi Campbell.
Another tap dancing show for the company. We even had to build a new floor in the rehearsal hall which then had to be taken up and relaid in the Pavilion for the show!
A 'Tapathon' in Bournemouth Square raised more than £2,300 for Children in Need
In spite of the film version being screened in Westover Road the week before, the show was a great success. Marred only by Brenda Baker's fall from a piece of scenery as she was playing Mrs Pearce.
' From the leading players to the humblest chorus members, these enthusiasts can turn their hands – in their spare time, it must be remembered – to a performance which would rival anything on the West End stage. ' … ' The theatre we're told, is in the doldrums. Not with performances like these to see it's not! ' [Echo]
Mr Cinders
Another autumn production at the Regent Theatre. Vivian Ellis's role-switching update of the classic fairytale was produced by Michelle Guy.
'This production wouldn't disgrace a professional stage and lives up to the sentiment of its best-known song to 'Spread a little happiness'. Certainly the first night audience went home very happy' . [Echo]
Although it was written in 1929, Mr Cinders enjoyed a modern resurgence when Sting recorded 'Spread a little happiness' and 'She's my lovely'.
The week at the Regent ended on Sunday with a company concert – 'MAGICAL MUSICALS' - in aid of the World Wildlife Fund.
A new venture for the company which saw the production of a smaller show in the autumn at the Regent Theatre, Christchurch, providing an opportunity for the youngsters to take principal roles in a smaller theatre. Judi Campbell, who was Brighton-based, produced for the company for the first time. Judi trained and qualified as a teacher of speech/drama/dance and for many years ran her own stage school in Brighton. She is an examiner in speech/drama. Many of her former pupils are now working professionally in theatre and TV. She also performed in and directed many and varied productions over the country, including pantomime.
The Pajama Game
The show received a disappointing 'crit' – with the exception of Sid's duet with himself!
The show ended, as it did in 1974, with the final exit from Anatevka, a bare stage and no curtain calls.
Comparison of the 1974 and 1992 programmes reveal 15 names of performers and helpers common to both.
Production costs: 1974 £7,800 - 1992 £32,000
The company adopted a Guide Dog for the Blind and called it Golde.
A financial success and well received by audiences

3 Things Africa Needs to Do Right Now to Stop COVID-19 Turning Into a Humanitarian Crisis
Africa has a "very good window of opportunity" to take action.
Why Global Citizens Should Care
The global outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic continues to put the progress made in achieving the UN Global Goals to end extreme poverty under threat as individuals, communities, and nations shut down schools, and businesses that are not classified as essential services. You can take action here to help the global COVID-19 efforts through our Together At Home campaign.
As the number of coronavirus cases in Africa increases, experts are warning that the continent has to act swiftly and decisively to stop the outbreak from turning into a severe humanitarian crisis.
The first case of coronavirus in Africa was confirmed in February in Egypt. It was followed by South Africa — which has been called "the epicentre of the pandemic in Africa" — and 45 other countries in March.
Currently, the only countries in Africa that haven't reported any cases are Lesotho, Burundi, Comoros, Malawi, Sao Tome and Principe, Sierra Leone, and South Sudan. Botswana became the latest country in Africa to record coronavirus cases on March 30.

But even before the number of cases grew to the current 4,981, African governments were announcing and taking steps to try and curb the spread of the virus.
Lesotho has closed its borders, while other countries have banned international travel and started monitoring travellers from high-risk countries like Italy, China, the UK, and the US.
South Africa is now in a 3-week lockdown. Kenya has a dusk to dawn curfew, and two of the biggest cities in Ghana and Nigeria are on lockdown.
Africa has been less severely impacted by COVID-19 than other continents, but existing issues like limited health facilities, water shortages, food scarcity, and highly-populated areas are causing concern that if COVID-19 does take hold it could spread significantly.
Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the director-general of the World Health Organisation (WHO), warned: "The best advice for Africa is to prepare for the worst and prepare today."
Here are three things that Africa needs to put in place to ensure that the outbreak doesn't turn into a humanitarian crisis.
1. Prevent new infections, treat positive cases, and get communities involved
The continent has a window of opportunity to put in place measures that will hopefully stop new infections and ensure those who are diagnosed with COVID-19 recover. This is according to Dr. Mary Stephens of the World Health Organisation's regional office for Africa.
She said Africa's best bet at containing the outbreak is breaking the chain of transmission. This essentially means that there should be effective testing, and swift action by governments to treat positive cases.
Meanwhile, Stephens added, individuals can help prevent new infections by following World Health Organisation recommended measures that include washing hands frequently, maintaining social and physical distance, and self-isolation for people who show signs of having the virus. People who test positive should self-quarantine.
Related Stories March 23, 2020 Thomson Reuters Foundation Coronavirus Crisis Reemphasizes Need For Clean Water In Africa
Washing hands with water and soap is not within reach, however, for an estimated 313 million people in sub-Saharan Africa who lack access to sanitation and clean water. Aid workers and advisors are calling on countries to use the pandemic as a reason to push for improvements to water supplies.
"We have seen from experience in other countries [like Italy, and China] that COVID-19 has the potential to stretch health systems," Stephens told Global Citizen. "Ours [Africa's health systems] are not as strong as those in Europe or the US."
Stephens said this is why the continent's response to coronavirus needs to be a partnership between leaders and communities, one where every party plays their role.
"Africa has a very good window of opportunity as the number of cases is not yet widespread,as she continued. "Our [health systems] are still coping as we have not gotten to the stage where patients are forced to stay at home because hospitals and clinics cannot accommodate them."
She added: "Let's use the opportunity to curb the spread of the outbreak. Report, test, and isolate. Let's not wait until the system is already overwhelmed."
2. A global Ubuntu plan to help economies survive
COVID-19 is already having a significant impact on the economies globally. The International Labour Organisation estimates that 86% of all employment in Africa is informal, meaning the lockdowns and curfews are significantly reducing economic activity.
Dr. Victor Oladokun, the out-going director of communications at the African Development Bank, believes that the continent needs an "ubuntu plan" — meaning a globally-coordinated financial response to the economic impact of COVID-19 in Africa. Ubuntu is essentially about togetherness, and how all of our actions have an impact on others and on society.
With governments balancing economies and the welfare of their citizens, entire industries and institutional systems find themselves fighting for survival, as Oladokun said in a statement released this week.

"Food supply chains, transportation networks, educational systems, governance, and judicial systems are either strained or barely functioning with medical services being the worst hit," he said.
He added: "Unlike any other pandemic, COVID-19 will alter the way we live, work, and socialise.The financial costs and the economic devastation are already of epic proportions. This is why Africa in particular urgently needs an ubuntu plan."
Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, meanwhile, has called on leaders of the 20 most powerful nations —as known as the G20 — to offer debt-relief and emergency funding worth R2.7 trillion ($150 billion). He said support is needed to improve health systems and cushion against the financial loss that is already being felt as borders close and nations go on lockdown.
"There is no time to waste: millions of lives are at risk," Ahmed said. "We can defeat this invisible and vicious adversary but only with global leadership. Without that, Africa may suffer the worst, yet it will not be the last."
The United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) predicts that the continent's gross domestic product could be cut by half, while countries that export oil could lose over R1 trillion ($65 billion) in revenues as crude oil prices continue to drop.
"This is a global crisis affecting the whole world. Africa, however, will be hit harder with a heavy and durable economic toll, which will threaten progress and prospects, widen inequalities between and within countries, and worsen current fragilities," ECA said in a statement.
3. Support access to quality education
Wars, poverty, political instability, and lack of infrastructure already make accessing education a huge challenge that Africa continues to battle with. Schools have also seen the impact of the lockdown to ensure social distancing, with many globally being closed, an issue seen across Africa too.
This could come with long-term consequences for many, like increased hunger for students who rely on free meals they get in schools, as well as an increase in school drop-out rates and social isolation, according to UNICEF.
At the moment, 1.3 billion learners and students globally are not able to attend school or lectures. Despite alternatives like home-schooling and e-learning platforms, these solutions are not within reach for many people around the continent.

A 2019 report by the World Bank found that less than a third of Africa's population of 1.3 billion has internet access, and that it will take a R1.7 trillion ($100 billion) investment before Africa achieves universal access to the internet.
"The less affluent and digitally savvy individual families are, the further their students are left behind. When classes transition online, these children lose out because of the cost of digital devices and data plans," said the World Economic Forum.
Meanwhile, those who have internet access also have to consider the prohibitive costs of being online. "Unless access costs decrease and quality of access increases in all countries, the gap in education quality, and thus socioeconomic equality will be further exacerbated," the World Economic Forum added.
Stefania Giannini and Suzanne Grant Lewis, from UNESCO, write that to limit the cost of COVID-19 on education, countries need to tackle the digital divide through public and private partnerships that ensure that all students have access to information. This includes using TV and radio as they have a wider reach.
They also suggest a meal-delivery system that makes it possible for students who are in need to still get a healthy meal. Lastly, authorities must plan for the diverse needs of all learners during school closures.
"This is paramount for students with learning difficulties, who may struggle to work autonomously and at a distance. It may be desirable to maintain minimum opportunities for classroom learning, with small groups of special needs learners," states Giannini and Grant-Lewis.
You can take action to support the global efforts against coronavirus through our Together At Home campaign. There you can take urgent and meaningful actions like calling on G20 states to commit funding to the efforts; share the word about the WHO's COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund; and learn about the virus and how to keep yourself healthy.

Henry Cameos And Releases OST For Korean American Drama "Dramaworld 2"
There's nothing he can't do!
April 21st, 2021
Season two of the bilingual Korean American drama series Dramaworld has recently premiered in Asia. It focuses on an American fangirl who finds herself transported into the world of K-Dramas, where she finds out that her actions can determine the storylines within the dramas.
"Dramaworld 2" | Lifetime
Santa Clarita Diet's Liv Hewson returns as the lead, along with Justin Chon (The Twilight Saga, Seoul Searching). The first season, which is available to watch on Rakuten's Viki, featured a few cameos, including Super Junior's Siwon and actress Han Ji Min. The second season includes even more cameos from both Korean and American celebrities, such as Daniel Dae Kim (The Good Doctor, Lost), Kevin Woo, and On My Block's Brett Gray.

Okay, so it's not exactly around THIS town but my intention was to expand my Around the Town radius, although the original plan was to expand little by little. So, um…yeah, that brings us to this week's post on my travels to Machu Picchu!
In case you're wondering about the buffalo in my belt in the picture above, the buffalo's name is Buffalo Jack and he's my traveling companion. Jack was adopted in Fort Hays, Kansas. D1 and I were there for one of my son's band performances and I thought Jack was kind of cute. D1 purchased him for me and we started taking pictures of him in different locations in Fort Hays. It expanded from there and now he travels with me whenever I go.
Machu Picchu was built by the Incan people about 7,000 feet above sea level in the fifteenth century. According to UNESCO, "The approximately 200 structures making up this outstanding religious, ceremonial, astronomical and agricultural centre are set on a steep ridge, crisscrossed by stone terraces." According to the tour guide I had, Machu Picchu was never actually considered to be "finished". There was always ongoing work. It was called a "Lost City" because when the Incans carved the city out of the surrounding landscape they used the landscape to their advantage and carved WITH the mountain, never destroying what they didn't have to in order to build this beautiful place. There are many theories as to what Machu Picchu was used for and no one has yet to learn the real purpose of it.
Most people, when they decide to go to Machu Picchu, plan for months. They make preparations well in advance and usually go during the good weather season. That's not what I did at all, haha! I was scheduled to travel to Peru for a work meeting and whenever I travel for work I always try to see at least one interesting site in the locality I'm going to be in. That's how I've managed to see Tikal, climb Pacaya Volcano, walk the grounds of Chichen Itza, stand on the cliffs of Tulu'um, watch flamingos in Celestun and, now, climb the terraces of Machu Picchu and ascend the stairs of Huayna Picchu (okay, okay, so it was more like crawl up the stairs of Waynapicchu…no judging, LOL).
Due to some indecision no arrangements for Machu Picchu were made prior to leaving the States. D1 worked hard to help me make a tentative itinerary, since I'm a person that prefers to have a plan in place when I travel. For anyone thinking about going to MP this is NOT my recommended course of action. I strongly recommend you make your arrangements prior to leaving and definitely with a reputable tour company. You may pay a little more on the front end but you'll be more likely to get exactly what you want. If you like a little adventure, go with a tentative itinerary and wing it. It wasn't awful but a little pre-planning on our part would have allowed us more time to enjoy MP.
As popular of an attraction as MP is, there is no direct way to get to MP. From Lima (where my meeting was) I had to take a plane to Cusco, where a car picked us up and took us to a train station in Ollantaytambo (pronounced Oy-an-tay-tahm-bo).
Waiting in Ollantaytambo to take a train to Aguas Calientes!
From Ollantaytambo we took a train (I highly recommend taking the Vistadome either going or coming back if you can, it's really neat) to Aguas Calientes (known now as Machu Picchu Pueblo). We used Peru Rail because I really wanted to ride the Vistadome train. The picture of the Vistadome on Peru Rail's website is pretty misleading (it shows an almost fully glass train car but the actual train cars simply have windows in the ceiling of the car) but it's still neat to be able to look up and see the tops of the mountains.
The train ride takes about an hour and a half to get from Ollantaytambo to Aguas Calientes and the scenery was beautiful. I was able to mark another item off my bucket list in addition to going to MP…my first train ride!
On the train to Aguas Calientes!
We were served a nice little snack on the train, complete with a llama tablecloth!
When we arrived in Aguas Calientes, we located our hostel and checked in. I was pleasantly surprised with how nice the hostel was (considering it's remote location). They really worked hard to make sure we were as comfortable as possible. The only issue I had was the toilet was clogged in my room but the staff at the hostel immediately fixed it. They also offered a baggage hold for guests after check out while the guests toured MP.
We spent a little time shopping in Aguas Calientes, grabbed some dinner and went to bed early since we planned to get up before sunrise so we could (hopefully) watch the sunrise in MP. It was pretty questionable whether we would actually get to see the sunrise in MP however, because November is the rainy season and MP is so high it tends to be pretty foggy. But we took the first bus up to MP where we met our tour guide the next morning. I discovered the joys of having next to no lung capacity at all in Aguas Calientes and it wasn't getting any better in MP. What can I say, I'm a Midwest gal thru and thru. But I kept pushing onward and upward with our tour guide cheering me on until we reached our sunrise viewing location.
Unfortunately we did not get to see the sunrise. But as I said, with it being November it was pretty questionable. Our tour guide went out of his way to make sure we knew this in advance so, while I was a little disappointed, it wasn't unexpected. After the sun rose and the fog began to burn off, the tour guide took us on a two hour tour of the ruins explaining what different parts of the ruins were and how the residents of MP might have lived, worked and even celebrated. Interestingly enough, the tour guide told us that nowhere in the Incan language (that had been discovered at this point) was there a word for war or warfare and that the Incan people were known as peaceful, highly intelligent scholars and workers. The tour was great. Well worth every minute and every penny spent on the guide.
Considering we barely had a plan for our trip to MP we managed to hit the jackpot and got tickets to climb Waynapicchu, a massive mountain about 1100 feet above MP that the Incas built a trail up the side of and temples and terraces on top of. The climb up Waynapicchu is a restricted activity. There are only 400 people a day allowed to climb WP and it's done in two groups. The first group must begin their climb between 8:00am and 9:00am while the second group must begin their climb between 10:00am and 11:00am. If you don't arrive to begin your climb within the specified start time you're not allowed onto WP.
some longer and some shorter.
And for good reason. The trail up WP (and I use the term trail very loosely) is narrow and steep at times. It was a difficult climb for someone like me who hadn't make any advanced preparations physically and had little-to-no lung capacity.
Coming down the train…WHOA that's steep!
Make a plan in advance. Even if you don't stick to that plan, this is a location you really do want some type of itinerary to refer to simply because of all the different modes of travel you have to take to get there.
Everyone tells you to stay in Cusco. I preferred Aguas Calientes to Cusco, even though there was less to do in Aguas Calientes. Aguas Calientes was not only closer to MP so we were able to get up to MP to possibly see the sunrise but we were also able to relax the night before going to MP.
Get tickets for WP. The 8:00am time slot would have been my preferred time slot because we could have had time to rest afterwards somewhere and then tour the rest of MP but even if you go at the 10:00am time slot it's well worth the climb.
Take your time climbing around the ruins (and if you go) WP. Enjoy the sights and views, take lots of pictures, and don't push yourself past your limit.
Drink lots of bottled water. Avoid the tap water at all costs. Don't overdo the alcohol.
Spend the FULL DAY at MP and return to Aguas Calientes that night. Don't go back to Cusco the day you tour MP. There are tour companies that will sell you what they call a full day tour but before you purchase make sure that tour doesn't send you to Cusco immediately after touring MP. Returning to Aguas Calientes instead of Cusco will allow you more time at MP and will allow you to simply return to your hostel after exhausting yourself at MP. And you will be exhausted.
See the Sun Gate and the Incan Bridge if you can. I missed these sites at MP because we actually ended up with only a 3/4 day tour with the WP climb.
Take time to acclimate to the altitude. If you're not used to the altitude it will take its toll on you.
There is ONE bank and ATM in Aguas Calientes. And merchants charge an additional 10% to use your credit card there. Plan accordingly.
Pay attention to your surroundings. I didn't have any issues but I've heard that pickpockets work in teams and catch their victims unaware by using distractions you might not think of as pickpocketing distractions.
Above all else enjoy yourself. Machu Picchu is an UNESCO World Heritage Centre and is absolutely worth the time and effort to see. I enjoyed the time I was able to spend there and hope to go with D1 one of these days!

Moscow Covid cases soar to record high
Published On 18 June,2021 03:06 pm
MOSCOW (AFP) - New coronavirus infections hit a pandemic high in Moscow on Monday, tripling in just weeks and forcing Russia's capital to close its Euro fan zone and extend other curbs.
Some 9,056 new cases were recorded in the megapolis of 12 million in the past 24 hours, up from 3,000 two weeks ago and a new daily record since the Covid-19 pandemic began in early 2020, according to official statistics.
Faced with the spike, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, who has been rolling out restrictions for nearly a week, said that the city would limit gatherings and close the Euro 2020 fan zone outside of the Luzhniki stadium.
"I didn't want to do this, but we have to," Sergei Sobyanin wrote on his website.
"Starting today, we will limit mass events to a maximum of 1,000 people."
"We are temporarily stopping all mass entertainment events and we'll also have to close dance halls and fan zones," he wrote.
The move came a day after he warned that the city was facing a new wave of infections, likely because of new Covid variants.
"It's tripling, there's an enormous dynamic that we have not seen during the previous waves," he said, adding that cases jumped from 3,000 to 7,000 in just days and predicting they would pass the 9,000 mark on Friday.
Over the past week, the mayor has introduced a series of new restrictions in an effort to contain the wave of infections, including declaring a "work-free" week, closing venues, and ordering mandatory vaccinations of people working in the service industry in the city.
Also on Friday, Sobyanin extended until June 29 several measures that were announced last weekend, like the closure of food halls in malls, zoos, playgrounds, and the closure of bars and restaurants between 11:00 pm and 6:00 am.
Curbs tightened in Euro host St Pete
Russia's second city of Saint Petersburg, the country's worst Covid hotspot after Moscow, is hosting seven Euro 2020 matches -- including a quarter-final -- and is expected to see thousands of football fans from Europe.
On Monday, Saint Petersburg also announced a tightening of restrictions, including no food sales in its fan zones.
The increase in cases in Russia comes as the country struggles to encourage Russians to get vaccinated, even though the country launched a mass campaign of free jabs in December and has developed and approved four vaccines - Sputnik V, EpiVacCorona, CoviVac and the one-dose Sputnik Light.
Since December only 19 million out of a national population of 146 million have received at least one dose of a vaccine, according to the Gogov website which tallies Covid figures from the regions and the media in the absence of a national statistics office.
In Moscow, just 1.8 million out of a population of 12 million, have gotten inoculated.
Russia overtook Britain on Thursday as the European country to record the most Covid deaths with 127,992.
However the Rosstat statistics agency, which uses a broader clinical definition of fatalities linked to Covid-19, says at least 270,000 Russians have died from coronavirus.

Today, I share with you several of the boxes in my house. This first one is an old bottle carrier of some kind. It has been stained over, but if you catch the print in the right light, I think it says "Jack's Beverages" on the front.
See the dividers? Cool box.
Next, I think the top box came from kinfolk. But, I don't remember who. Mom? A little help if you are reading this. The bottom one...well, read the comments...Mom fills in the blanks on my waning memory. Grandma painted it this antique red color. Wouldn't have been my color of choice. But, changing it would involve work. And I hate the W word.
This next blanket box is the replacement piece for Cousin Janelle's old hope chest. Primitive. Clean lines. I like it! And it is stuffed with all my old quilts.
And now. Check out this mother of all mothers. See how big it is? It's a chippy blue color. I wax this baby and it is just awesome. More linens are stored in here. How many linens can one woman have? Well, I have a lot. For sure.
See the top? Waxed, it is just lovely.
Love the chests and the stands. If you weld a hook to the front, you would have a perfect wreath stand or a place to hang a piece of art. You might also try magnetic clips and hang photos on them. They would be cute with a welcome message outdoors on the porch. Maybe holding a chalkboard so that you could change the message? Instead of a hook, you could weld a bar across so that it resembles a music stand or easel of some sort. You could use the taller ones to hang a towel over in the bathroom. I'm not sure how helpful my ideas are, but I sure love the stands!
I like the replacement for Janelle's chest. The two you weren't sure about the origin - the top one was given to me, used, by Aunt Nancy when Terry was a baby. I used it as a toy box for many years and then it went to our lake estate to be used as a blanket box. The bottom one was Grandma Pinkey's and passed down to Grandma Riney who painted it (yuck). No telling what is under the paint. It is well over 100 years old and you can return it to me if you are planning to sell it. Then you can have it back in 10 or 20 years.
Even though the long chest reminds a little of a coffin, they are really cool. I can only imagine how many linens fit inside that thing. Good luck with those stands. I'm interested to see what you do with them.
Mom, thanks for filling in the blanks. I thought the little chest was at the lake, but wasn't sure. Glad to hear you'll be with us another 10-20 years. Let's shoot for 20+, k?
Tricia, coffin. Yes. I have heard that before! It would be fun to use, scaring (and scarring) the children at Halloween, wouldn't it?
LOVE your boxes! Especially the chippy blue one! What kind of wax do you use?
Those boxes are gorgeous! I love old things, to touch, to smell, to have, to live around. You're my kind of collector.
The stands, what were they? We are currently selling those rustic tin stars affixed to stands like these. A temporary affixing, maybe?
Thanks for coming by my place. How on earth did you find me?
Cher, I use briwax. Love briwax! All bare wood should be given briwax. It makes everything look much healthier. Wood needs love, too. Glad you LOVE 'em!
WinaW, I am not sure what each stand originally was. 3 of them have thumb screws, like they are all missing something that went down into the top. From this examination, I can see that perhaps, an s-hook would fit in the hole, and I can hang something from it. hmmm I think I found you from FringeGirl. Love your writing!
By the way, Mom. I am not looking to sell any of these boxes. I'm just showing off.
One stand might be about the right size for a paper towel holder. Sorry, that's all I've got!
I am surprised that no one has mentioned BOB who seems to like sitting on all of your wood boxes. He certainly gets around.
I can also see using the three taller ones as holders for the word "JOY" for the holidays. Print on cardstock with a pretty font, slice the top and bottom just a bit and thread over the top of the pointed rods. You could use the same idea for the smaller ones. Placeholders maybe?


I want to use the Variant Manger with C#. Has anybody done this before? Has anybody a code sample in C# to share? Thanks.
I have examples for DxDesigner and Expedition in vb.net if that will help. Get in touch; patrick at exactcad dot com , if you want them.

Dr. Deanne (Dede) Greer Orput, born on February 20, 1960 in Rockford, Illinois, to Joanne Orput and the late Alden Orput, passed away at age 58 on September 23, 2018 in Illinois. Deanne was the beloved wife of John Parker of Evanston. She is survived by her daughters, Sarah Parker and Rachel Parker; son, Nicholas Parker; brothers, Jeff Orput and Greg Orput; and sister, Kimberly Orput. She was loved by many and will be greatly missed.
Deanne was most recently a resident of Evanston; prior to that she was a longtime resident of Barrington Hills. She graduated with a PhD in Psychology from Loyola University of Chicago in 1996 and a BA in Anthropology from University of Wisconsin Madison in 1984. Deanne's hobbies included world travel, gardening and landscape design, cycling, and paddle tennis.
Deanne was fueled by family and beauty. Her smile brought so much peace into our lives. Flowers, mountains, sunsets and color... From birth Deanne was forever exploring and searching for the missing piece to complete her puzzle. "Me do it" defined that path. She traveled the world finding nourishment in other cultures, and cherished her friendships made along the way. Her children were her greatest source of strength and provided her endless joy and pride. Deanne had a deep soul which touched so many. Those who were lucky enough to truly know her, got a glimpse into the depth of love she had for others. She was driven to find nature's balance in her own life and her soul remains forever in our hearts.
In lieu of flowers, the family invites donations in Deanne's name to NAMI Illinois. The donation website is https://namiillinois.networkforgood.com/. Please enter "memorial" under "honor or remember someone with your gift" and "Deanne Orput" under "Recognize."
Friends and family can pay their respects on Saturday, September 29, at St. Mark's Episcopal Church, 1509 Ridge Avenue, Evanston, Illinois, 60201. Family will host a Visitation at St. Mark's from 1:00 - 2:30 p.m. with a Memorial Service in the sanctuary from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m.


Watch Mia Madre (2015) full movies online free.
These are hard days for Margherita, who is going through a very difficult period in her life. On a professional level first, the middle-aged film director, has started wondering whether the committed movies she has been making are really an actual reflection of the world she lives in ; on top of this, she is in conflict not only with her crew but also, and primarily, with Barry Huggins, a well-known American actor of Italian origin, who proves awfully bad and uncontrollable. On the personal level, things do not get any better – it could even be said they are worse. Margherita has just left her life partner and she has become unable to relate to her teenage daughter. As for her mother, she is now seriously ill and her doctor tries to prepare her brother and her for the worst. Which is unacceptable to the weakened woman who can find salvation only in denial of reality. Will she manage to face up to the facts and to come to terms with herself?


No trend is a good trend!
PMPA's Index of Sales of Precision Machined Products in October 2010 was 103, basically at the six month average of 103.66.
We see the lack of a clear trend as the index continues to hold within a band of 97 to 107 over the past six months as indicative of the "New Normal"- sales levels recovered to those of the beginning of the decade.
The MSCI data for October 2010 showed that distributor shipments of steel were up 15.8% more than October 2009.
The SAAR for light vehicle production reached 12.26 million, the best non-rebate fueled sales results since September 2008.
The current issues in the banking and housing sector are likely to keep our hopes of a home building recovery in check, and our industry's shipments will continue to be dominated by Automotive, Armament, Aerospace and others.
We were encouraged to see that the 3 month moving average rose slightly in October. Our shop managements continue to show their savvy; October hours of first shift worked declined .4 to 43.1 from September 43.5. Only 2% of reporting companies are scheduling a first shift of less than 40 hours.
This data explains why we remain optimistic about the Precision Machining Industry Outlook for North America in the short term.
For more information, PMPA members can download the October 2010 report here.

Q: Установить переменную jQuery Есть форма с автоматической отправкой. Вне формы есть дивы, которые имеют некое значение. Как мне скопировать в форму это значение? В какую сторону копать?
A: $('#element_id').val();   // Берет значение элемента с id="element_id"

$('#element_id2').val( 'value' ); // Присваивает полю с id="element_id2" значение value

UPD 2013-06-24:
Если не известен заранее идентификатор объекта, то можно "обернуть" все div в один какой-то общий div с уникальным идентификатором, напр. id="block_all".
Т.е.:

В консоли выведутся все нужные id.
Можно заменить console.log(divs[i].id) на alert(divs[i].id), кому как привычнее.
A: $(%form%).beforeSend(function(){
    //Доступ к данным елемента формы (input, textarea, и т.д.)
    $(%element%).val();

    //Доступ к обычным елементам
    $(%element%).html();
