High school football playoffs don't start for nearly three weeks, but Cretin-Derham Hall says it is in postseason mode.
The Raiders, who lost two of three games to start the regular season, have won three in a row after a 32-14 thumping of Stillwater on Friday night in a Suburban East Conference game at Pony Stadium. D'mitri Walker rushed for 174 yards on 23 carries and scored two touchdowns to power a Raiders attack that didn't let up until the final horn.
Max Jackson scored on a long touchdown run and threw for another score as the Raiders knocked Stillwater (5-1) from the short list of unbeatens.
Cretin-Derham Hall (4-2) had losses to East Ridge and Mounds View in Weeks 2 and 3, respectively. But the Raiders' winning streak has put them in position to grab a No. 3 seed when section play begins.
"This is big as we build toward the postseason," Raiders coach Mike Scanlan said. "We are trying to position ourselves for the seeding process, and we did a good thing here. When we lost those early games, we figured that we'd have to win out. So far, so good."
Mounds View, which lost its first game of the season 21-0 to Menasha, Wis., on Friday, remains undefeated in conference play. The Mustangs play at East Ridge, also undefeated, next Friday for not only the conference championship but also to stake a claim to the top seed in the section playoffs. The loser likely gets the No. 2 seed.
Mounds View finishes at Stillwater on Oct. 15. If the Mustangs defeat the Ponies and the Raiders win out over Roseville and Woodbury, Cretin-Derham Hall would have the edge over Stillwater in a tiebreaker for the No. 3 seed.
The No. 3 seed is important because it means that team won't have to potentially play No. 2-ranked Rosemount in a crossover game in the second round.
"We knew this game had some seeding implications," Stillwater coach Beau LaBore said. "We need to get back at it and finish strong."
The Ponies were without Zach Knox, the leading rusher in the conference entering Friday's games with 673 yards and 10 touchdowns. He is out with a concussion, and LaBore hopes to have him back in a couple of weeks.
"When you lose a runner like that, someone that has carried the ball for us 517 times over his career, it is tough," LaBore said. "You've got to find a way. We were unable to do so."
Cretin-Derham Hall seized the momentum from the start and did little wrong in building a 19-0 halftime lead. All of those points came on their first three possessions.
Leading 13-0, the Raiders caught the Ponies off-guard by using an onside kick late in the first quarter. Cretin-Derham Hall recovered in a massive pile of bodies, and a handful of plays later, junior running back Kenneth Udoibok scored from five yards out for a 19-0 lead.
"We played the best game of the season because we played like a team," Walker said. "Everyone was doing their part and playing at a high level. This is how we want to do things the rest of the way."
Walker chewed up most of the yards by himself on a four-play, 53-yard drive capped by his 11-yard scoring run. He finished with 112 yards on 11 carries.
About the only miscue he had was a fumble during a short run on the Ponies' first possession. But right there to scoop up the ball was Jackson, who zipped around the left end for a 58-yard touchdown run.
Stillwater perked to life in the second half with two touchdowns, but Cretin-Derham Hall punctuated its dominance with a 19-play 80-yard drive that took 10 minutes, 45 seconds and was capped on a 5-yard pass from Jackson to Aitor Flood.
"Things are looking good now," Scanlan said.
After impressive Summer League, undrafted Naz Reid gets multi-year contract from Timberwolves
As a long, eventful draft night neared its conclusion last month, Gersson Rosas and his staff were working the phones. Having already acquired Jarrett Culver and Jaylen Nowell, the Timberwolves had one specific undrafted prospect on their radar they knew they wanted, and badly. That player was Naz Reid. The highly rated, incredibly skilled 6-foot-10 recruit out of high school...
Karl-Anthony Towns believes Timberwolves' budding culture is 'something special'
Karl-Anthony Towns didn't feel the need to lobby Gersson Rosas in favor of Ryan Saunders during the Timberwolves' head coaching search a couple months ago. Because, Towns thought, the decision was "more of a no-brainer." "The talent he possesses as a coach and as a motivator and as a communicator, I think he's the best communicator in all the NBA,"...
Long snapper Austin Cutting, a seventh-round pick by the Vikings in April's draft out of Air Force, has been cleared to play this season in the NFL, a source told the Pioneer Press on Thursday. A decision was reached Wednesday, although the Air Force Academy has yet to make an announcement. Cutting, taken with the No. 250 overall pick, is...
Eddie Rosario's big blast leads Twins to victory
Trying to protect a two-run advantage with a pair of runners on base, Athletics manager Bob Melvin turned to his bullpen with one out in the seventh inning, summoning reliever Yusmeiro Petit.

CHICAGO — At an annual showcase that features each Big Ten program's best players, the Gophers might have brought their third-leading rusher this fall to the conference's football media days Thursday. But that was the type of production expected out of Mo Ibrahim a year ago, and once Shannon Brooks and Rodney Smith suffered season-ending knee injuries, Ibrahim rushed for...

CHICAGO — Gophers football coach P.J. Fleck reveled Thursday at Big Ten media days that West Virginia had more than a courtship with Minnesota offensive coordinator Kirk Ciarricca.

Josip Skoko to present Mark Viduka Medal
staff writers 1446604906
Australian football great Josip Skoko will present the Mark Viduka Medal to the best player in the Westfield FFA Cup Final 2015 as part of the post match ceremony on Saturday night.
Skoko will present the medal to the player adjudged the best in the Westfield FFA Cup Final 2015. Viduka will not be in the country to present the medal himself, however Skoko is a more than fitting person to present the medal on behalf of one of his close friends and former Socceroos team mates.
From the time he left North Geelong for Europe through to his final year at Melbourne Heart in 2011, Skoko had a decorated playing career.
The midfielder made 52 appearances for the Socceroos and scored nine goals, arguably the most memorable being when he scored the winner in a friendly against Greece in front of a crowd of over 95,000 at the MCG in 2006.
Skoko made four appearances in the FA Cup during his time with Wigan Athletic, while he also played in Cup competitions in Croatia, Belgium and Turkey, as well as featuring in the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup.
The Mark Viduka Medal is awarded to the player adjudged to be best afield in the Westfield FFA Cup Final 2015.
The voting process for Saturday night's Final will comprise a panel of three judges – Socceroos Head Coach Ange Postecoglou, FFA Head of National Performance Luke Casserly and Skoko, who will allocate votes on a 3-2-1 basis.
Adelaide United's Spanish striker Sergio Cirio was the recipient of the inaugural Mark Viduka Medal last year.
Tickets to the Westfield FFA Cup Final 2015 are still available. Click here for details. The match will be broadcast LIVE and exclusive on FOX SPORTS 505.

Q: How to replace a missing month using jquery? This is my json_encode output
  $result = '[{ MFG_NAME: "ABC", CONCATED_MKT_SHARE: "01-OCT-14|0.59" },
        { MFG_NAME: "XYZ", CONCATED_MKT_SHARE: "01-OCT-14|0.87" },
        { MFG_NAME: "ABC", CONCATED_MKT_SHARE: "01-NOV-14|0.25" },
        { MFG_NAME: "XYZ", CONCATED_MKT_SHARE: "01-NOV-14|0.67" },
        { MFG_NAME: "ABC", CONCATED_MKT_SHARE: "01-DEC-14|0.10" },
        { MFG_NAME: "XYZ", CONCATED_MKT_SHARE: "01-DEC-14|0.03" }]';

This is what I have done in jquery
 $(function () {
   var data = new Array();
   data = <?php echo $result; ?>;
   var MFG_NAME = [];
   var DATE = [];
   var MKT = [];

data.forEach(function(item) {
var parts = item.CONCATED_MKT_SHARE.split("|");
var i = MFG_NAME.indexOf(item.MFG_NAME);
if (i == -1) {
    MFG_NAME.push(item.MFG_NAME);
    DATE.push([parts.shift()]);
    MKT.push([+parts.shift()]);
}
else {
    DATE[i].push(parts.shift());
    MKT[i].push(+parts.shift());
}
});
});

There are some months missing for ABC and for XYZ. Is there any way to replace the missing months with the month that has missed, so that I get all 12 months and also 12 mktshare values replacing the concatenated value with 0

A: You could do something like
$(function () {
    var months = ['JAN', 'FEB', 'MAR', 'APR', 'MAY', 'JUN', 'JUL', 'AUG', 'SEP', 'OCT', 'NOV', 'DEC']

    var data = new Array();
    data = JSON.parse('[{"MFG_NAME":"ABC","CONCATED_MKT_SHARE":"01-MAR-14|0.74,01-APR-14|0.58,01-MAY-14|0.21,01-JUN-14|0.22,01-JUL-14|0.24,01-SEP-14|0.96,01-DEC-14|0.21,01-AUG-14|0.34"},{"MFG_NAME":"XYZ","CONCATED_MKT_SHARE":"01-MAR-14|0.44,01-MAY-14|0.82,01-JUN-14|0.71,01-AUG-14|0.22,01-JUL-14|0.24,01-SEP-14|0.96,01-DEC-14|0.21,01-AUG-14|0.34"}]');

    var x = 0;
    for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
        var mfg = data[i],
            share = mfg.CONCATED_MKT_SHARE;
        for (var j = 0; j < months.length; j++) {
            if (share.indexOf('-' + months[j] + '-') == -1) {
                share += ',01-' + months[j] + '-14|0.0';
            }
        }
    }

    var dlen = data.length;
    var cmname = new Array();
    var cmdate = new Array();
    var crank = [];
    var mktshare = new Array();
    for (i = 0; i < dlen; i++) {
        cmname[i] = data[i].MFG_NAME;
        shar = new Array();
        shar = data[i].CONCATED_MKT_SHARE.split(',');
        shlen = shar.length;
        shrk = new Array();
        shard = new Array();
        for (j = 0; j < shlen; j++) {
            shaak = new Array();
            shaak = shar[j].split('|');
            shrk[j] = shaak[0];
            shard[j] = parseFloat(shaak[1]);

        }
        cmdate[i] = shrk;
        mktshare[i] = shard;
    }
});

Philcon 2022 Guests
Keith DeCandido
Principal Speaker
Keith R.A. DeCandido first attended PhilCon in 1991 as part of The Chronic Rift, a public-access TV show that covered genre issues from 1990-1994 (and was revived as a podcast in 2008). The very first convention he ever attended as a professional in the field in the fall of 1993 was PhilCon, which was right after he started working for the late Byron Preiss as his Associate Editor of SF/Fantasy/Horror. At that convention, he was on an editing panel with several other editors in the field, including the late Gardner Dozois, who pointed at the two first-timers on the panel (Keith and Warren Lapine) and said that they'd both be out of the field in five years. Warren and Keith, who both remain very active in the field, love telling that story, because it was rare that Gardner was ever that wrong…
Keith's fiction career started in 1994 with a Spider-Man short story. In the 28 years since, he has written fiction in more than 30 licensed universes from Alien to Zorro, including TV shows (Star Trek, Supernatural, Farscape), movies (Cars, Serenity, Resident Evil), games (World of Warcraft, StarCraft, Dungeons & Dragons), and comic books (Spider-Man, Thor, the X-Men).He's also written bunches of work in milieus of his own creation, including fantastical police procedurals in the fictional cities of Cliff's End (Dragon Precinct and its many sequels and short stories) and Super City (the novel The Case of the Claw and several novellas and short stories) and urban fantasy in the somewhat real locales of New York (the Bram Gold Adventures) and Key West (the tales of Cassie Zukav, weirdness magnet). He's also been involved in several shared worlds, including V-Wars (created by Jonathan Maberry), Viral (created by Steven Savile), The Scattered Earth (created by Aaron Rosenberg & David Niall Wilson), and Pangaea and Phenomenons (both created by Michael Jan Friedman).
Recent and upcoming work includes the Resident Evil graphic novel Infinite Darkness: The Beginning, a prequel to the Netflix animated series; Phoenix Precinct, the sixth novel in his fantasy/police procedural series that started with Dragon Precinct; All-the-Way House, the secret origin of the Jersey Devil, part of the Systema Paradoxa series about cryptids; Feat of Clay, the second novel in the Bram Gold Adventures, which takes place in his home borough of the Bronx, New York; the Star Trek role-playing game adventure Incident at Kraav III (with Fred Love);the urban fantasy short story collection Ragnarok and a Hard Place: More Tales of Cassie Zukav, Weirdness Magnet; the award-winning graphic novel adaptation of Gregory A. Wilson's Icarus;short stories in Devilish and Divine, The Fans are Buried Tales, The Further Adventures of Grignr, Tales of Capes and Cowls, Three Time Travelers Walk Into…, Thrilling Adventure Yarns, Zorro's Exploits, The Four ???? of the Apocalypse (which he also co-edited with Wrenn Simms), and the first two Phenomenons anthologies, Every Human Creature and Season of Darkness; and two collaborative novels: To Hell and Regroup with David Sherman, the conclusion of David's "18th Race" trilogy of military science fiction novels, and Animal with Munish K. Batra, MD, FACS, a thriller about a serial killer who targets people who harm animals.
He writes regularly about pop culture for the award-winning web-zine Tor.com and also on his own Patreon. In addition, his essays can be found in collections published by Sequart, and for the Outside In, Subterranean Blue Grotto, and Gold Archives series.
Keith is also a fourth-degree black belt in karate (he not only trains regularly, but also teaches to both kids and adults), a professional musician (currently percussionist for the parody band Boogie Knights), and a professional editor of more than 25 years' standing (though he usually does it sitting down). Find out less at his mediocre web site at DeCandido.net.
Charles Urbach
Artist Guest of Honor
Charles Urbach is an award-winning writer and colored pencil illustrator with 30 years experience in design, publishing, and illustration. He began work in graphic design in 1991 just as the technology of design was moving away from traditional cut and paste techniques into digital technologies. While working for regional publishers across New York State, he earned a bachelor's degree in illustration from SUNY Fredonia, with an emphasis on colored pencil drawing, traditional painting, and traditional printmaking. By combining techniques learned in the academic and professional worlds, Charles developed a practical and unique approach to artwork that combines pen and paper drawing skills and digital editing during the sketch phase, with colored pencil techniques for the final artwork. The result is a wide array of hand drawn Prismacolor pencil artwork that has all the visual depth and sophistication of traditional paintings.
His subjects, like the techniques employed in its making, are a blend of ancient and modern. His work explores fantasy, science fiction, young adult, horror, and surrealistic imagery by drawing on a rich tradition of historical, spiritual, literary, and mythological sources. Like a traveler on a journey, his work ventures into varied territories, not resting for long in any specific genre or subject matter. As a result, his art is recognized for its celebration of diversity and dynamic visuals that appeal to many different audiences and age groups.
Charles' published work includes hundreds of illustrations for the tabletop gaming industry, book covers for authors including Timothy Zahn, cover/branding art for major gaming conventions including Origins Game Fair and Gary Con, and graphic design/concept work for the corporate world. Projects have included miniatures designs for Wizkids' Heroclix, illustrations for "Magic: The Gathering," "Star Wars," "Legend of the Five Rings," and artwork for many other games and properties including "Esper Genesis," "Das Schwarze Auge," "Infinite City," "Doomtown Reloaded," "Noble Treachery," "A Game of Thrones," "Call of Cthulhu," "Lord of the Rings," and a multitude of others. Clients have included Wizards of the Coast, NECA, Sony Online, AT&T and many other game publishers and independent clients. Among his accomplishments, he is a multi-time ASFA Chesley Award winner and his work has won awards at Gen Con, Dragon Con, CONvergence, Origins Game Fair, Jordan Con, PhilCon, MarCon, Chattacon, and many other events. Charles is a frequent Guest of Honor, panelist, and teacher at conventions and gaming tournaments throughout North America and Europe.

Hundreds attend post-election climate-justice discussion

Event gathered community members to advocate for clean-energy policies, climate justice
Minnesota communities can continue advancing clean-energy policies despite Republican election victories, leaders of local environmental nonprofits said Monday.
The state will need to replace 70 percent of its electricity-generation capacity in the next 20 years, said Timothy DenHerder-Thomas of the Minneapolis nonprofit Community Power, which supports clean-energy policies. While certain actions may not be feasible in a Republican-controlled state legislature, there is plenty of action Minnesota can take, he said.
"Action on climate change isn't something that's going to hurt our communities," said DenHerder-Thomas. "This is the best thing that we could be doing for our communities."
DenHerder-Thomas was among the nonprofit leaders who spoke at Monday's post-election climate-justice event at Plymouth Congregational Church. More than 350 people attended the event, which was hosted by a coalition of 10 environmental and liberal nonprofits.
The nonprofits organized the event to provide a space for community building, processing and planning for advancing climate justice under a Donald Trump administration, said Patty O'Keefe of MN350.
"It would be easy to look at what Trump said about climate change and feel climate action is a lost cause," O'Keefe said. She added that there are a lot of "levers" for advancing local, municipal and state policy that don't rely on the federal government.
Trump said last month that he has "an open mind" on climate change but has called it a "hoax" in the past. He has also promised to scrap the Obama Administration's Clean Power Plan, which aims to cut carbon pollution from existing power plants, "cancel" the 2015 Paris climate agreement and "save" the U.S. coal industry.
In Minnesota, the share of electricity produced by coal dropped 22 percentage points from 2000 to 2015, while the share of electricity produced by renewables increased 15 percent, according to the Commerce Department. The state is on pace to exceed its renewable energy standard of 25 percent by 2025, according to the department, and is expected to increase its solar-power generation 15 fold this year.
DenHerder-Thomas said Community Power wants to see a stronger focus on energy efficiency. He noted a desire to build an electrical grid based on renewable energy while "doing it in a way that is long term more cost effective for the community."
DenHerder-Thomas led a breakout session Monday during which people discussed clean-energy action ideas such as pushing cities and government agencies to install solar and energy-efficient components and pushing for more alternative transportation.
Other leaders talked about the importance of finding common ground with people with whom they may disagree. Ulla Nilsen of MN350 said a majority of people support action on climate, noting the importance of creating an emotional connection when discussing the topic.
"Imagine the number of people out there who are waiting to be asked, waiting to be engaged," said Kate Jacobson, program director of MN350. "If we want to engage more and more people, we have to talk to each other."

Fed weighs new interest rate cut
WASHINGTON – Disappearing jobs, burrowing consumers and skittish companies are reasons for the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates and brace the tottering economy.
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and his colleagues open a two-day meeting Tuesday afternoon – their last before the November elections – to make a fresh assessment of economic and financial conditions and decide their next move on rates. Their decision will be announced Wednesday.
It is all but certain the Fed will cut rates – for the second time in this month alone. The big question: Just how low will the Fed go?
Investors on Wall Street and many economists are betting the Fed will slash its key rate by half percentage point to 1 percent. A few, however, however, think the Fed will opt for a smaller, quarter-point reduction to 1.25 percent.
"I'm torn," Stuart Hoffman, chief economist at PNC Financial Services Group, said about the size of the cut. "Clearly, the economic outlook has weakened," he said.
Whatever the size of the rate cut, commercial banks' prime lending rate for millions of consumer loans would drop by a corresponding amount. The prime rate is now at 4.5 percent and is used to peg home equity loans, certain credit cards and other floating rate loans.
Under either scenario – a half percentage point or a quarter point cut – both the Fed's key rate and the prime rate would fall to their lowest in more than four years.
In grim news, consumer confidence plunged to its lowest level on record. The Conference Board reported Tuesday that its index dropped to 38 in October, from 61.4 in September. That bunker mentality makes it more likely shoppers will retrench even more, throwing the economy into a tailspin.
Underscoring one of the big stresses Americans are under: the value of homes – people's biggest asset – dropped by record amounts.
The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller 20-city housing index released Tuesday showed a drop of 16.6 percent in August from the year ago, the largest on record going back to 2000. The smaller, 10-city index, fell 17.7 percent, the biggest decline in its 21-year history.
The Fed hopes that lower borrowing costs will entice people and businesses to spend again, which would help revive the economy. The Fed also hopes that other actions to shore up the U.S. financial system – along with lower rates – will help get credit flowing more freely again. So far, though, the central bank's steps haven't been able to turn around a panicky mindset.
The Europeans also are weighing another rate cut.
With a U.S. recession seen as a foregone conclusion, any Fed rate reduction would be aimed at relieving some of the pain.
The Fed probably will hold the door open to additional rate reductions when it acts on Wednesday, economists said. The Fed's last scheduled meeting of the year is Dec. 16.
Many predict the economy contracted in the third quarter by around 0.5 percent when the government reports Thursday on the economy's performance. If that estimate is correct, it would mark the biggest decline in economic activity since the third quarter of 2001, when the country was suffering through its last recession.
Nervous consumers are expected to have cut back sharply in their spending during the third quarter. If that proves correct, it would mark the first drop in consumer spending since late 1991, when the economy was coming out of a recession.
It can take at least six months – often longer – for the Fed's rate cuts to make their way through the economy. The Fed's previous rate reductions, however, were blunted by the fact that credit became much harder to get as banks hunkered down.
Employers, meanwhile, are likely to keep cutting back on hiring. The unemployment rate – now at 6.1 percent – is expected to hit 7.5 percent or higher by next year. Whirlpool Corp., the nation's largest home appliance maker, announced Tuesday that it will cut about 5,000 jobs by the end of next year. After the last recession, in 2001, the unemployment rate rose as high as 6.3 percent in June 2003.
A housing bust, a credit clog and a financial meltdown have collided, imperiling the U.S. economy and the global economy. Problems started out in the United States but have spread to other countries in Europe, Asia and elsewhere.
Earlier this month, the Fed and other central banks joined to slash rates, the first coordinated move of that kind in the Fed's history. That dropped the Fed's key rate down to its current 1.50 percent. It also marked an about face for the Fed, which had halted an aggressive rate-cutting campaign in June out of fears those low rate would worsen inflation. The Fed started signaling rates probably would go up to fend off inflation. The Fed shifted signals back to a rate cut when the economy worsened and the inflation threat lessened.
European Central Bank president Jean-Claude Trichet said Monday a rate cut next month is "a possibility" as moderating prices for oil and other commodities damp inflation pressures. The ECB joined the Fed in early October in cutting rates. Its key rate is at 3.75 percent.


We all are aware of how SEO is important for any business to rank their website on search engines, and how basic keywords can increase their visibility online. SEO is one of the top most effective techniques to grow your business exponentially. In fact, it is the first step in Digital Marketing!
Being a professional Digital Marketer or as an entrepreneur, everyone wants their website on the first list. And yes, all this is possible with a little hard work involving business related keywords optimized in websites, ads, emails, and more. But obviously, this technique has been implemented for years, so what are the new things we need to follow. New years will always bring new trends and updates that world depends on. Let's find out some of the top SEO techniques to follow this 2018!
Mobile users everywhere! Their strength has increased enormously due to the need for minimalism. Yes! We all can't take our PC and laptops everywhere, and we do need something small and pocket-friendly to email, call, check the weather, contact people and etc. So, when the world is more into using their phones, why not make your website mobile-friendly?
52% of the internet users use their mobiles to visit a website. 1/3rd of the mobile users prefer their mobiles over desktop or laptop to access the internet. So, basically, when the number is huge, it is quite clear that you need a mobile-friendly website.
A mobile-friendly website is easily usable on the phone. The colors, fonts, images fit perfectly on any screen size. Mobile users usually get irritated and leave the website it isn't responsive. According to study, 46% of the users report problems if the website isn't mobile-friendly. And due to this, you will definitely get bounce rates!
Some of the marketers and entrepreneurs give much attention to keywords and keyword optimization but ignore return on investment. Your SEO should not just only focus on keyword optimization to bring your website to a rank, but should also be focused on how to sell your products online. You need to get something when you are spending on your campaigns. For this, you need to stay focus and analyze the metrics. You can further re-create your website content, implement A/B testing, use creative ad campaigns, and etc.
The most effective way to increase your ROI is to maintain an active blog, create effective email marketing, create social media ads, and more. In this way, you can increase your ROI. You will get more than what you spend.
You don't just have to have a website and optimize it with SEO and maintain various social media platforms. You can also increase your brand awareness by maintaining a forum (Quora), creating an event on event websites, and also, by creating ads on ad websites. This is Off-page SEO and yes, it will help you create backlinks, but will also, help your brand increase its visibility.
You can use Quora and participate in questions related to your business. You can even maintain a blog on Quora and write engaging content on it. The more you answer on various questions (related to your business), the more people can get in touch with you, understand your business, and may even want to buy your service/products.
The best form of marketing is to conduct a regular checkup on your website. You should go through each webpage and analyze if it is optimized with SEO and content. You should analyze the bounce rates using Google Analytics, and create new ways to decrease bounce rates on web pages with new content, design, and images.
You need to be sure that each web page is working and has no 404 errors and broken links. If your content is overpopulated with keywords, try to decrease them and make it simpler as possible. Regular checkups will give you great benefits with your SEO work.

John Robert Shadwell (April 1919 – 25 April 1942) was an English first-class cricketer and British Army officer.

Born in Hampshire in April 1919, Shadwell was the son of Frederick Charles and Elsie May Shadwell. After attending Royal Military College, Sandhurst as an officer cadet, he was commissioned on 24 January 1940 as a second lieutenant in the 1st Battalion, Wiltshire Regiment, which at that time was stationed in Madras for coastal defence duties as a result of the outbreak of the Second World War.

Shadwell appeared in one first-class Madras Presidency match for Europeans against Indians at the Madras Cricket Club Ground on 12 January 1941. He scored 2 runs but was dismissed both innings. On 25 April 1942, Captain Shadwell died of illness at Sagar and was buried at Kirkee War Cemetery, Pune.

Copland teachers reinstated
Three suspended teachers' union reps at Copland community college in Wembley won an important victory last week when they were reinstated and all charges against them were dropped.
The headteacher at the school, Sir Alan Davies, the deputy head of finance, Dr Richard Evans, and the school accountant and legal advisor, Columbus Udokoro, have now been suspended.
Auditors are investigating allegations that senior staff received almost £1 million in "unlawful" bonuses over the past seven years.
One of the reinstated union reps, Hank Roberts, had previously spoken out about the payments and believes that this lay behind his suspension on a "trumped up charge".
Hank said, "I would like to thank all my colleagues in the school and in the unions locally and nationally that stood firm in the face of attempted intimidation.
"It is right to whistleblow when wrongdoing is uncovered. It is necessary to ensure that whistleblowers are protected from trumped up disciplinary charges and actions aimed at silencing them. I hope that my and my colleagues' action will encourage others to step forward."

On the basics page the shutter speed or exposure time was described as the amount of time the camera lets light in. We know the shorter amount of time we let in light the darker the picture will turn out. What we want to concentrate on for exposure time is what effect on the contents of the picture will be. Remember we can change the ISO settings on digital cameras at will, adjusting how light or dark a picture turn out is easy.
stopped. Fast shutter speed. When you look out the side window of a car at 70 mph, the world is a blur. Slow shutter speed. The sample picture shows the fast exposure on the left, catches the individual drops of water. The one second long exposure on the right makes the water appear to be long unbroken streams. When shooting with a flash, an exposure of 60 (1/60th second) is standard. If you are shooting with the camera in your hands and not on a tripod, you will want faster exposure times. If you are shooting anything with action, you need faster exposures to prevent blurring.
Most cameras give the ability to freeze time with extremely fast shutter speeds of 1/3200 of a second or faster. These high speeds were used to take the pictures of fire posted on this site. The far opposite is the bulb mode, in which you must manually close the shutter after minutes if you choose. Bulb mode is used for night photography and special trick shots.
Move your camera's mode selector from 'Auto' to 'S'. This setting is usually referred to as 'Shutter Priority'. The camera will allow you to set the shutter speed manually while automatically setting your aperture. This makes it easy for you to warp time in your pictures. Remember you must use a tripod with slow exposures.
The classic 'fluffy' water fall. Set your camera on a tripod focused on an area of splashing water in a stream. The long exposure time will allow multiple splashes to blend into one, giving that 'fluffy' look.
Long red lines of tail lights. Set your camera on a tripod, looking down on a busy highway. With a nice long exposure, all the cars will blur together and you will only see the path the cars took as a set of streaked red lines.
A crisp detailed look at the top of a cresting wave. On a nice sunny day at the beach, use a fast exposure and tight zoom to catch the tiny droplets of mist peeling back off a toppling wave.

Review: Burning Ashes by H. Lewis-Foster
Australian cricketer Nat Seddon is one of the world's best bowlers. He is also gay and out to his team mates. His life revolves around cricket, his sex life around casual hookups and friends with benefits. Until he sees Scott Alverley, England's promising new batsman. On the last day of his team's "Ashes" tour of England, Nat spies golden Scott Alverley across the field and is instantly smitten. But the young man plays for his old "enemy" and Nat doesn't even know if Scott is gay.
Scott Alverley is a son of privilege. A true golden boy in coloring and heritage, all Scott has ever wanted is to play cricket and be accepted for who he is. Years of boarding school have taught Scott to keep his sexuality a carefully guarded secret until he meets Nat Seddon. Nat is everything Scott has ever dreamed of but what is a young virgin to do when he meets the experienced man of his dreams?
Scott and Nat's attraction to each other proves to be something far deeper, a real love each man expects to last. But Nat and Scott play for teams separated by more than an ocean. Constantly pulled apart by schedules and geographical residences, Nat and Scott try to make the best of it all. Until they can't. What will give in the tournament of love? Who will be the victor and win the cup of Ashes? Can they both come out on top in the contest for love?
You don't have to be a fan of cricket or even knowledgeable about the game to enjoy the love story at the heart of Burning Ashes. It's a very sweet love story that has its foundation on the playing field of cricket and crosses continents in its tale of love and the pursuit of a relationship that will stretch over the years. H. Lewis-Foster has created a very wholesome and mostly angst free tale of gay love on and off the cricket field, a game that Robin Williams describes as "baseball on valium". So its probably a good thing, especially for American readers, that an understanding of cricket and those that play it isn't necessary in order to make sense of this story. True that Scott and Nat are batsman but as long as you can relate to men whose lives revolve around a sport, both as players and as men who deeply love the game they are involved in, then that aspect of Burning Ashes becomes real.
I have to admit I still don't understand the title even after having read the book anymore than I understand cricket. I loved the author's descriptions of England and Australia right down to the way the two cultures feel about the weather and the heat. It seems all very authentic, including the affection Lewis-Foster feels for the two countries and their outlook on sports, which is a good thing considering the story will track over both continents as the men travel with their cricket teams to various matches and tournaments.
My only real issue with the story is not the game but the relationship that is built between Scott and Nat. Considering the age of the men, the relationship and their almost courtly parade towards love comes across as almost Pollyanna in tone and mildness. They meet, fall in love, separate, miss each other, come back together, make love and tell each other how much they missed each other. It's all very ordinary and sweet, everything you might expect in a tale of a first love that becomes a final one. It never becomes cloying but it also never climbs above the middling sweetness either. It takes a certain writer to elevate a story that is kind, sweet, and even toned into a book that makes even the most mundane of events dramatic and vivid in description. This is not that author or book.
If all you are looking for in a story is a lovely, sweet romance of no real depth or angst, then Burning Ashes is the book for you. It is a nice way to spend the day. But if you are looking for memorable characters, sweeping storylines, and a compelling romance, then this will disappoint in every way. Consider this recommended with reservations.
Cover art by Leah Kaye Suttle. It's a lovely cover and a good match for the story inside.

Author Interview "Quickie"
Q: What's the best tongue twister you know (without looking it up)?
Raine: A cherry stem. Wait, what did you mean? 😉
Q: Can you sing the Big Mac jingle?
Raine: I just tried and I failed epically, but I'll have you know that my husband was trying to pantomime it for me so I didn't look like a total nerd who didn't know the Big Mac song.
Q: Would you rather be a famous writer with money, or a relatively unknown writer whose book will change one persons life forever?
Raine: I have always, from my early days as a writer many years ago, wanted to write a story that would change someone's life, a book that would win a Newberry, and a novel that would be taught in high school English. But… man, some money would be nice too!!
—Full Author Interview:
• Your concept for this story is a poignant one, you might even call it bittersweet. How did this story come about?
It started as a little story I told my husband as we were cleaning the kitchen together one day. Couldn't have been more than a few sentences at most, but we both got a little choked up at the end. Never had a snippet of idea bring tears to my eyes. When NaNoWriMo 2012 rolled around and I was trying to figure out what to write, hubs reminded me of that snippet. Most Beautiful Words poured out of me in 13 days and took a year to revise.
• Do you believe in an afterlife?
I do because if I didn't, I'd be so sad. I want to believe there's more after this and I like to imagine it's a place we design ourselves—all our happiness together in one space.
• Who would you want waiting for you in the Hereafter if it exists?
My Paw-Paw, who I dedicated Most Beautiful Words to… I'd like to think he's very proud of me. He was the most amazing man.
• Who would you be waiting for?
This is a very interesting question—I think I would wait for those I had wronged, so that we could meet again in the afterlife and hug without the shackles of resentment. Sometimes there's no making amends in this life, as hard as you try, but that doesn't mean I don't want to reconnect in the future.
• Why frame out your story in this manner?
I developed Autumn as the Storykeeper first, but I didn't want this beautiful, vibrant, loving young lady to be just the Storykeeper. I wanted to show her and her life as much as I showed the love that Roy and Tommy shared. That created the first two POVs. I don't think it would have been as powerful, though, without the Valley as a third concept. In some ways it was easy to write this way, and in other ways it was like French braiding…which I am not great at. ^_~ I think it turned out well!
• Which of your characters evolved first?
Autumn and Tommy evolved together, which was really a cool chars-development concept since they're related.
• What would your afterlife look like?
Just like Burmecia from Final Fantasy IX. And if you're not a super nerd and don't know what that is, it would rain all the time in my afterlife.
• Do you believe that love transcends everything?
I think that it can if it's used right. I don't think idle love transcends everything. I think lionhearted love can transcend, even if it doesn't seem like it in the moment.
• First story you read as a child that has impacted your writing as an adult
Behind the Attic Wall by Sylvia Cassedy
• Your favorite comfort story that you pick up when you are looking for that comfort read or old friend.
Every few years, I go back to Hogwarts! I'll get all the books on audio and listen to Jim Dale for days, reliving the magic and the adventure of Harry Potter.
• What is next up for Raine O'Tierney?
I have two releases in December: X-Mas Cake (A Modern Fairytale) from Beaten Track Publishing and Bowl Full of Cherries from Dreamspinner Press, then in January the M/M romance I wrote with my husband, Alchemy Ever After comes out from Dreamspinner Press, and finally in March, my YA I'll Always Miss You is released from Harmony Ink. In the meantime, writing writing and more writing!s
Thanks so much, Raine for the great interview!

Especially when there's someone familiar in the Valley who will do everything he can to keep Great-Pop from returning to her.
Most Beautiful Words Excerpt:
But Rook had no interest in waiting for permission. He'd come forward, snaking his arms around Toren's sheet-covered waist and pulling him hard against his body. "It's just a kiss," Rook breathed before he put his lips against Toren's. Should he protest? Had he protested? Toren couldn't remember. In that moment there was nothing but Rook's firm lips, gently teasing his own apart. Toren kissed back, tasting the other man, sucking at his bottom lip. Rook's mouth was intoxicating, and quite suddenly, Toren forgot why he'd ever resisted. He liked kissing Rook. But after only an appetizer's worth of his mouth, Rook pulled away. The sensation of their mouths pressed together lingered, and Toren was dumb with the moment. Lost on it. Uncertain what they'd even been talking about.
"Do you remember me now?" Rook asked.
"Mmn," Toren agreed, warmth lingering on his lips. "Rook."
Silence was his reply. The arms around his waist fell away, leaving him feeling cold.
Toren slowly opened his eyes to find he was standing alone, clutching his sheet, as Rook walked away from him toward the staircase.

Vancouver, BC: In a dramatic breakthrough in one of Canada's most notorious wrongful conviction cases, Wade Skiffington has been released on bail while the Minister of Justice conducts a full investigation into whether his conviction was a miscarriage of justice.
On January 23, 2019, the Honourable Justice Michael Tammen, of the British Columbia Supreme Court, in Vancouver, BC, ordered that Mr. Skiffington be released to live with his family in Newfoundland and Labrador while the Minister's investigation is underway.
Mr. Skiffington, age 53, has been in prison for more than 17 years for the murder of his fiancée, Wanda Martin, a crime that he vehemently insists that he did not commit. Before and since his legally dubious "Mr. Big" confession, Mr. Skiffington has always maintained his innocence. Despite being a model prisoner, he has been denied parole because he will not participate in correctional programming that he perceives requires him to admit guilt for a crime he did not commit – the classic "prisoner's dilemma" or "Catch 22". Following Justice Tammen's decision granting him bail, Mr. Skiffington expressed the hope that his seemingly interminable nightmare may finally be coming to and end.
On June 14, 2017, Mr. Skiffington filed an application pursuant to Part XXI.1 of the Criminal Code for Ministerial Review of his conviction. On June 7, 2018, the Department of Justice's Criminal Convictions Review Group (CCRG) concluded that there was a reasonable possibility Mr. Skiffington could have been the victim of a miscarriage of justice and has commenced a full investigation into his case.
Under Part XXI.1, convicted persons who have exhausted the courts' appeal process can apply for a review provided they can furnish new and significant information. The Minister can choose to turn down the application; refer it to a provincial appellate court for a fully contested appeal; or direct that a new trial be held. Previous exonerees who went through the lengthy S.696.1 process include Steven Truscott, Robert Baltovich and Romeo Phillion. To date, Innocence Canada (formally known as AIDWYC – the Association in Defence of the Wrongly Convicted) has helped exonerate 22 innocent people.
The Department of Justice's review of Mr. Skiffington's conviction is based largely, although not entirely, on the question of whether the only evidence capable of sustaining the conviction, a confession made during an undercover Mr. Big sting, can be said to be reliable when analyzed in accordance with the Supreme Court of Canada's seminal decision in R. v. Hart, rendered in 2014. If his confession is deemed to be unreliable, Mr. Skiffington's conviction cannot stand.
Wanda Martin was shot multiple times in a friend's apartment building in Richmond, B.C. on September 6, 1994. Her fiancé Wade Skiffington immediately became the subject of police scrutiny, as many domestic partners naturally are, but there was never any forensic evidence tying him to the offence and independent third-party witnesses readily established that he had a credible alibi and no realistic opportunity to commit the offence. Mr. Skiffington was completely co-operative with police in the aftermath of Wanda's homicide, providing them with multiple statements and permitting a search of his residence. Residents who lived close to the crime scene reported a man, who was not Wade Skiffington, behaving in a very suspicious manner in the neighbourhood shortly after the homicide.
Innocence Canada believes that the police investigation into Wanda Martin's murder was a classic case of tunnel-vision, a known cause of wrongful convictions, and that police failed to pursue alternative suspects and rudimentary avenues of investigation that may well have resulted in the apprehension of the person who killed Wanda Martin. Instead, with their focus solely on Wade Skiffington, in 2000, six years after Wanda's murder, police initiated a costly, intricate and violent "Mr. Big" undercover operation where they posed as gangsters - all in an attempt to coerce a confession from Mr. Skiffington. Under immense pressure, and with a genuine fear of violent repercussions if he did not tell the undercover boss what he wanted to hear, Wade Skiffington confessed to a crime he did not commit. That confession, without any corroborating evidence, and with many details that showed it to be false, resulted in Mr. Skiffington's conviction and a life sentence with no chance of parole for 13 years.
For further information or comment, please contact Innocence Canada co-counsel Phil Campbell (416-579-3321; or Tamara Duncan (778-998-7950).

Maarten
ter Horst
Biography
Maarten ter Horst (1987) started playing the violin at four years old. He enjoyed a rich musical development throughout his childhood, thanks to his highly involved violin teacher Koen Rens and his mother, who taught the piano at home and practised the violin with him daily. His interest in music broadened at the age of fifteen and he started composing. In the following years, this resulted in some early works for violin and piano.
After initially choosing a different direction, Ter Horst felt the urge to write music again in 2017 at the age of 30. This resulted in his two highly autobiographical string quartets, which he completed during the lockdown in 2020. The works form a personal journey of love, doubt, fighting and hope. The Helikon Quartet will record Ter Horsts String Quartets No. 1 and 2 in 2021 on the Cobra Records label.
For Ter Horst, composing is a way of sharing emotions. He writes parts that drive each other up in a quest in which dreams and longings try to reconcile themselves with reality. What stands out is the timeless, melodic musical language. With this, he shows a surprising new perspective on a classical tradition.
In the words of the Helikon Quartet: "A promising young composer with a strong personal message and gift for compositional storytelling."
Brahms and Beethoven [are] very prominent in style, design and overall atmosphere, but there is a clear Ter Horst accent. The composer can suddenly give the sweetest melody a different twist with a well-placed dissonance or a surprisingly poignant chord

If you are looking for the best prices for Cardiff Airport parking, look no further. UKACP is the place for cheap and convenient car parking.
We make your money go further with huge savings of up to 60 per cent on airport parking. We also make it really easy for you to find the best deal. Simply enter your details in the search box and we'll do the rest.
We'll show you all of the best deals for your requirements. You can order the results based on price, transfer time and distance from airport. This makes it really easy for you to compare the different car park options available.
Once you find a deal you're happy with, you can book via our website and we will send you the confirmation by email instantly via email.
This will contain your unique booking reference number and this is all you will need to enter the car park.
The confirmation email not only contains your airport parking booking reference number, it has telephone numbers, directons and arrival/departure procedures detailing what to do when you get to and leave the car park.
On site airport parking can be found at Cardiff via the official Long Stay 1, Long Stay 2 and Short Stay car parks. All have excellent security measures in place such as CCTv, security barriers and patrols and all are walking distance to the departures terminal.
Some are less than a mile away such as Airparks Park & Ride offering three minute transfers every 20 minutes. Other parking options are all of similar distance from the airport with almost the same transfer times give or take a few minutes.
All are convenient and, despite the name 'Highwayman Security Park', offer very good security features such as CCTV, security barriers, lighting, fencing and patrols.
By far the most cenvenient option, drive to departures, somebody securely parks your car for you and you just walk into the departures terminal.
At Cardiff you can use Airparks Cardiff Meet and Greet or the Airparks Return Time Saver option which means you simply park your car on arrival at the Airparks car park as normal but on your return your car will be waiting for you at arrivals so you can get home a lot quicker.
If possible, we advise booking airport parking early. You'll be able to lock in the cheapest prices and have the best choice of car parking spaces. Prices tend to increase quickly at Cardiff airport, so this is something you should keep an eye on.
But, if you're not quite ready to book your parking yet, don't worry – just pop your email into the 'Email me this quote…' box and we'll do just that.
Please bear in mind that currently not all car parks offers disabled parking facilities.
UKACP can also offer you great deals on Cardiff airport hotels with parking which are ideal if you have a very early departing flight time.
Instead of going through that mad rush down the motorway simply pre book a hotel at the airport for the night before including parking, wake up, have breakfast and fly!
Why not take a look at the official Cardiff airport website to help you plan your time at the airport. You could also take a look at our very own Cardiff Airport page and get the very latest information on things like eating, drinking, wifi, shops and various other airport services.
Easy to find and use car park, quite small but with friendly staff. Will use it again next year.
We'll definately use this car park next year, everything so easy.
So easy to find, reported to reception as said and staff parked our car for us. Bus took about 5 minutes to airport terminal. Excellent.
If you're looking for a great price for parking just outside Cardiff airport then look no further. Got reccommended this car park from friends and I'll reccommend it also.
Nice car park if you want a very quick bus transfer to terminal. Price was also good compared to some others we saw.
Got our car valeted whilst we were away for a small extra charge. Good car park if you want to be close to the airport.
Excellent car park with good online price also. We parked for 1 week and it cost a lot less than we thought it would do. Car park close to airport so no long transfers.
Used Airparks last year and they were very good. Had to wait a bit longer this time on arrival but still good.
Excellent car park with equally excellent and helpful staff.
Very helpful and close to terminal. Will definately use again.
Nice car park which had helpful staff. busses ran regular and were nice and clean. Would recommend because it is an easy car park to get in and out of.
You can compare Cardiff car parking prices, locations, transfer times, security features and read customer reviews here. Just a few clicks and you've saved time and money before you've even left the house. Feels good, doesn't it?
