Born in Glasgow, Scotland on October 2nd 1944, Willie Morgan was one of the illustrious group of players who played in the famous No. 7 shirt for Manchester United; included in the official line up of United's "Magnificent 7's" along with George Best, Bryan Robson, Eric Cantona and David Beckham, and achieving a lasting place in the football hall of fame.
Willie was signed for United by Sir Matt Busby in 1968 for then a record fee of £117,000 and was already the first footballer in the world to have his own official fan club. Willie captained Manchester United and was an international star, who was capped twenty one times for his country, reaching the finals of the world cup in 1974.
In 1972 after playing against Brazil Willie Morgan was voted 'The Best Right Winger in the World' and for Willie, Manchester United will always be the greatest club in the world.
Most people would agree that Sir Matt Busby knew a thing or two about football. So when he needed a player to further improve the side that had just won the 1968 European Cup, he set his sights on someone special. That player was Willie Morgan. Sir Matt broke the British transfer record to bring Morgan to Old Trafford, moving George Best over to the left wing to accommodate Willie on the right wing and giving him the mythical number 7 shirt previously worn by the inimitable Best.
An instant hit with the Old Trafford crowd, Morgan became a terrace idol in his own right. He was the first player in the world to have his own fan club and was twice voted player of the season in a team of bona fide living football legends, including Denis Law and Bobby Charlton.
But how did a miner's son from a small village in Scotland make his way to the pinnacle of the football world, while striking up lasting friendships with show-business celebrities such as Tom Jones, Rod Stewart and Johnny Mathis off the field?
In On the Wing: My Autobiography, Willie Morgan entertainingly recounts his remarkable journey in life and football.
"Over the years my music and travels have brought me many lasting friendships, and none more important to me than my pal Willie Morgan. As a world-class athlete Willie is a world traveler and like myself, a golfer. So we hit it off right away. My big surprise came later when after years of touring Great Britain in concert, and many many golf outings with Willie, he asked me to host a golf tournament in Northern Ireland. This is when I became aware of his great interest and support of children's charities. Behind this fun and loving football legend was a dedicated and passionate supporter of underprivileged young people.
"Willie has been a valued supporter of the NSPCC since 1986, and we were delighted to make him an NSPCC Patron in 2015 in recognition of his incredible commitment towards our work.
In 1986 the 'NSPCC Howard Keel Golf Classic' was established by Willie himself, for which he had sole responsibility for securing the celebrities, much of the event logistics and liaison with the sponsors. The celebrity golf day took place at Mere Golf Club, Cheshire and was followed by an exclusive fundraising dinner, raising thousands of pounds each year. The event very quickly became the highlight of our fundraising calendar, and over a 26 year period the event generated over £1m for NSPCC in the North West, this is a staggering testament to Willie's commitment and passion, and his support has truly changed the lives of hundreds of children, young people and their families living across the region.
He remains an advocate of the NSPCC and ChildLine to the present day and on behalf of all those young people, we cannot thank him enough for his initial vision and commitment to establish such a wonderful annual event."

Villanueva de La Vera Historical Site
Unique traditional architecture
This is one of the most easterly towns in the county of La Vera, and was declared a Historical Site in 1982.
It has unmistakable Roman traits. There are remains of a pre-Roman settlement on Castrejón Hill, as well as a dolmen on the outskirts of the town, providing evidence that the area has been home to humans since ancient times.
Walking around the historic centre of Villanueva de La Vera is a real treat. The town's traditional architecture results in beautiful houses that make use of a kind of timber framing. The houses are built based on a timber frame filled with brick, adobe or stone.
Because this is a relatively fragile construction system, the town plan is organised around large groups of houses that tend to be deep and narrow.
Large blocks are thus formed, with dead-end passageways where the entrances to the houses are located. The houses in Villanueva are characterised by having two or three storeys, often with walls clad in planks with windows and wooden balconies almost always on the upper storey.
All the houses have a similar layout: the ground floor was used as a stable, cellar or henhouse, while the bedrooms were on the first floor and the kitchen on the second.
There are also several examples of homes where the ground floor walls were built using ashlar masonry.
Three monuments stand out in terms of the religious architecture: the Parish Church of Nuestra Señora de la Concepción, from the late 16th century and built using masonry and ashlar; the ruins of the Parish Church of Santos Justo y Pastor; and a small 18th-century hermitage built using masonry and ashlar, with an entry door protected by a lintelled portico with Tuscan columns.

Q: Count of a Summary Field I need to get a count of a summary field in Crystal reports desktop. I know Crystal will not allow me to do this, so I need a workaround.
I have tried RunningTotals to no avail. Here is the setup. This example show that there are several records for the related table and there are several occurances of a valueIfPerformed of 1 - what I need to get a count of 1 for that group - not the actual number of times performed. If a group has all zeros then 0 if there is at least one 1 then 1.

Martin Forums | 2010-11
The Martin Forums for the 2010-2011 academic year included lectures by Consul General Kiyokazu Ota, Keith Haskell and Jawed Zouari. The press release for the events are below.
Consul General Kiyokazu Ota | East Asia: Present Crisis and Future Opportunities
Consul General Kiyokazu Ota of Japan to Speak at Martin Forum
Kiyokazu Ota, consul general of Japan in Seattle, Wash., will visit the University of Idaho Monday, April 11, to present a Martin Forum.
His discussion, entitled "East Asia: Present Crises and Future Opportunities," will take place at 4 p.m. in the Idaho Commons Whitewater Room, 875 Line St. in Moscow.
Ota notes that East Asian economies have achieved a lot of development over the past few decades. Future opportunities continue to emerge in East Asian countries, and both Japan and the U.S. need to position themselves to take advantage of these markets.
Political challenges exist as well. For example, the Cold War ended in Europe, but continues in East Asia. North Korea is armed with nuclear weapons and is showing military aggression. Ota will address how the U.S. and Japan are going to handle the current dictatorship in North Korea, as well as diplomacy efforts with other countries.
In addition, Ota will discuss the role an ever-growing China plays in regional and international politics and economics. The U.S. and Japan, he suggests, have common challenges and opportunities vis-à-vis China.
"We are pleased to continue our relationship with the consulate in Seattle, and that Consul and Mrs. Ota are visiting the Palouse at this time," said Bill Smith, director of the Martin Institute.
The Otas also will visit Washington State University and the mayors of Moscow and Pullman, Wash. This is the only public presentation for Ota during his visit.
Keith Haskell | Building a World Future with BRICs
Former British Ambassador Keith Haskell Speaks at Martin Forum
On Building A World Future With BRICs Diplomat suggests learning Portuguese; US losing influence
Reprinted with permission by the Moscow-Pullman Daily News
(Oct 7, 2010)
The United States emerged as the world's dominant superpower with the collapse of the Soviet Union at the end of the 20th century, but it's now facing competition from a handful of developing nations that may become serious rivals within the next 20 years.
"The question is, which other countries will stake out the most convincing claims to become great powers alongside or not too far behind the United States?" asked Keith Haskell during his Martin Forum lecture Wednesday evening at the University of Idaho in Moscow. The annual forum is sponsored by the UI's Martin Institute and Martin School of International Studies.
Haskell's 38-year career in the British diplomatic service includes ambassadorships to Peru and Brazil. The latter is one of the four BRIC countries that will increase in global importance over the coming years, he said. BRIC stands for Brazil, Russia, India and China.
The United States' global influence is decreasing with international worries about the country's demand for oil and its sky-high budget deficit, Haskell said. He said the unique balance of power in the 21st century offers the four BRIC countries the opportunity to use their potential to fulfill the particular conditions needed to become dominant superpowers.
Those conditions include free elections, freedom of speech for media and individuals, an independent and efficient judiciary, low corruption, access to natural resources, a well-educated population, technologically advanced companies and low degrees of threat from internal or external religious, ethnic or frontier disputes in addition to a low risk for natural disasters.
"You might be surprised to realize that China fails most of these tests," Haskell said to quiet laughter among audience members. "It is undemocratic, hostile to freedom of speech and corrupt. It has relatively few natural resources within its borders. Even water is running short, which is why it has formed alliances with some of the least savory resource-rich regimes in Africa."
He said China is known for imitation rather than innovation and the practice of cutting corners and sacrificing quality to save money. In addition, 6 million Chinese residents graduate from college each year, but about 2 million of them are without advanced jobs to match their degrees, he said.
However, "China's main asset is its sheer size," he said. "No country which contains 20 percent of the world's population can ever be unimportant."
India's similarly massive population is complemented by a stable democracy and many well-educated people, Haskell said, but it has extensive governmental bureaucracy and corruption. It's a leader in technology but lacks abundant natural resources, and it faces internal religious and ethnic conflicts plus tension with its neighbor, Pakistan.
Haskell said Russia has plenty of natural resources and the technology to use them but is becoming increasingly undemocratic, repressive and corrupt.
"Many people in Russia hanker for a return to the old days of Soviet hegemony and the (two-superpower) world of the '50s, '60s and '70s," he said.
That leaves Brazil as the leader of the BRIC pack, he said. Its democracy seems firmly established 25 years after the end of military rule, its media is free and lively and it has varied and vast sources of natural resources, such as minerals, oil, gas and agricultural products like soybeans, coffee, sugar and beef.
He said Brazil's diplomacy style is relatively laid back and lacks arrogance, and it has no significant ethnic or religious tensions within the country or with its neighbors.
It falls a little behind in education, and its judicial system can be slow, but it's already the de facto leader of South America and has cultural ties to Africa, extending its influence.
"If you aspire to surf on the wave of the future, it might not be a bad start to learn Portuguese," Haskell said.
The forum is sponsored by the University's Martin Institute and Martin School of International Studies.
In addition to the forum, Haskell also guest lectured in several classes at the University of Idaho and Washington State University, met with the International Affairs Club and the Martin Scholars, and had office hours for students who wish to chat about international affairs.
Martin Forums on international topics are part of the educational and outreach missions of the Martin Institute. The institute was founded to advance research and teach about the causes of conflict and peaceful resolution.

Jawed Zouari | Democratic Revolution in Tunisia
MOSCOW, Idaho – Jawed Zouari, a former Fulbright scholar and visiting professor at the University of Washington, will present the University of Idaho's next Martin Forum on Thursday, Feb. 17, at 5 p.m. in the Student Union Building Ballroom, 709 Deakin Ave. in Moscow.
Zouari spent two years in Tunisia during his Fulbright Scholarship teaching courses in international relations, public policy and research methods at the School of Law and Political Science, University of Tunis. He also presented papers at conferences in Cairo and Tunis and organized a conference on Globalization and Democratization in North Africa at the University of Tunis.
His lecture, "Democratic Revolution in Tunisia: Effects on Egypt and Beyond" will be followed by a question-and-answer session. The event is free and open to the public.
Zouari's extensive knowledge of regional politics in Northern Africa constitutes a unique opportunity for the Moscow community to understand the crisis that has engulfed the Maghrib," said Kodjotse "Ro" Afatchao, associate director of the Martin Institute and the Martin School of International Studies.
Zouari, a tenured faculty member at Seattle Central Community College, has taught interdisciplinary courses in Political Science and History at SCCC since 1993. He has also taught Political Science and History at several colleges and universities, including the University of Washington, Seattle University, and the University of Tunis. He is currently a visiting professor at the University of Washington.
He has a bachelor's degree in political science and modern languages from Portland State University, a master's degree in international studies from the Henry Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington, and a doctorate in history from UW. His master's thesis focused on "The Effects of Ben Ali's Democratic Reforms on the Islamist Movement in Tunisia", and his doctoral dissertation focused on "European Economic Expansion in North Africa during the 19th century."
Founded in 1979 by Boyd and Grace Martin, the Martin Institute advances research and teaching into the causes of conflict and peaceful resolution. The institute administers an interdisciplinary undergraduate major in International Studies including offering courses, speakers, and sponsors a lecture and discussion series on international topics.

Choi ends title drought, as Ko takes over No. 1
With a weight off her shoulders, Choi Na-yeon savors victory at the LPGA Coates Golf Championship on Saturday, local time, at Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club on Saturday, local time, in Ocala, Fla. Choi won her first title in more than two years. [AP/NEWSIS]
Choi Na-yeon of South Korea won the first tournament of the year on the LPGA tour for her first title in more than two years, while Korean-New Zealander Lydia Ko tied for second place and became the youngest player ever to move to the top of the world rankings.
Choi was clearly caught up in the emotion of her first victory since late 2012. She topped the PGA money list in 2010 and won the 2012 U.S. Women's Open, but had fallen out of the world top 15.
"I was so nervous out there,'' said Choi, who recorded her eighth U.S. LPGA Tour victory. "I waited so long for this moment.''
Choi, one of the game's elite players before the two-year victory drought set in, admitted the pressure to succeed wore her down to the point that she stopped reading Korean sports websites and considered downgrading her mobile phone plan so she could not download stories about her.
"I had a lot of stress,'' Choi said. "Even if I was in the top 10 or top five, not many people would say you did a good job if you finished as runner-up. They say you are a loser and that hurt me a lot.''
With a victory practically in her grip, Ko had to settle for half of the spoils on Saturday - though it represented a significant piece of golf history nonetheless.
After reclaiming the lead late in the final round, the 17-year-old Ko double-bogeyed the 71st hole in the inaugural Coates Golf Championship to lose by a shot to Choi.
However, Ko became the youngest player of either gender to climb to world No. 1, breaking the record set by Tiger Woods by almost four years.
As the ramifications of the distinction finally took hold, the sting of defeat at Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club wasn't quite so bad. The notion of celebrating, which first set her back for a moment, didn't seem so crazy after all.
"It's going to be good,'' Ko said. "I was here to focus on the tournament itself, but I guess I got a great outcome at the end of the day, too.''
After leading by as many as four shots on the front nine, Ko trailed Choi by a shot as they played the par-3 15th. With Choi facing a 6-footer for birdie, Ko slammed in an improbable 60-footer and Choi three-putted for a two-shot swing.
The teenager's lead didn't last long. Ko drove into a fairway bunker, then fanned a hybrid shot into a stand of pine trees down the right side of the 17th hole, scrambling to make a double bogey.
As the steadier Choi finished with a 4-under 68 and 16-under total, Ko had to salvage a par on the 18th to finish in a three-way tie at 15 under, but it was good enough to secure a piece of the record book.
Woods, previously the youngest golfer to reach No. 1, was 21 years, five months, 16 days when he reached the top in 1997.
Ko reached the mark three years, eight months, 14 days earlier.
The men's rankings date to 1986 and the women's list is nine years old.
"It's a nice consolation, if you want to call it that,'' said Ko's swing coach, David Leadbetter.
Ko finished with a 71 to match Jessica Korda (66) and Ha Na Jang (70) at 15 under.
Ko, whose pulse rate seems to be frozen at about 75 beats per minute whether she's making an eagle or double bogey, hardly seemed derailed by the 71st-hole meltdown. Her indefatigable nature is her biggest asset, Leadbetter said.
"We sent her to anger management school to learn how to get angry,'' he said with a laugh.
As for Ko, her ascent seemed ordained when she won her first tour title as an amateur at age 15, the youngest in tour history.
"I can't say I'm surprised,'' American star Stacy Lewis said of the new No. 1. "It was just a matter of time.''
Ko, a native of South Korea who moved to New Zealand as a youngster, unseated Inbee Park in the top spot.
"She's probably the straightest player out here,'' said Park, who tied for 17th. "The golf gets easier if you hit the ball straight and you can roll the ball in.''

College is one of life's most transformative experiences. Freshmen arrive on campus each fall curious, excited and sometimes a little nervous about the road ahead. By graduation, they're often completely different people.
We asked four seniors at the end of their undergraduate careers about how the college experience had changed them and what it has meant to have that experience at Carolina.
A McBee, S.C., native, Youngblood majored in international business and accounting at the South Carolina Honors College. He will attend graduate school in international business at the Darla Moore School of Business.
The first thing that struck me about moving into the Honors dorm — it was a lot more diverse than where I was coming from. McBee is very, very small, and there wasn't that much diversity.
Ben Youngblood: "My first two semesters taught me it's not about how smart you are. It's about how hard you work."
I felt like I was going to Hogwarts in the Honors dorm. I made friends from different parts of the state, the country and the world. It was a very positive experience.
My biggest fear when I got here was that I wasn't as smart as I thought I was.
It's more than raw intelligence. My first two semesters taught me it's not about how smart you are. It's about how hard you work. That was comforting. In the Honors College, there are some legit geniuses, and I don't think I'm one of them, but with a lot of hard work, you can do anything.
I'm most proud of my senior thesis. I collected interviews with Latino migrants in Columbia and the surrounding area. Documented, undocumented, wealthy, poor. I wrote a brief history of Latino immigration to the state and country. Sharing stories can change perspective.
In McBee there are a ton of migrant workers, and some of my friends were the children of migrant workers. I saw a lot of issues in the system they were part of. Growing up in that environment made me realize there are lot of beautiful people behind the numbers we see on the news.
Studying abroad was my biggest challenge. I went to Guadalajara, Mexico. I was the first student to do that. Not only were the classes challenging — the university was tough and the classes were in Spanish — but I experienced a lot that was challenging and emotional. That was rewarding.
One of my favorite classes was a lab science, my first semester, with Claudia Benitez-Nelson. She is an amazing person. She knows how to push students in an encouraging way. I never felt discouraged. I just wanted to impress her.
Another favorite was my international business class with Daniel Ostergaard. He's an extremely intimidating guy in class, but he will stay in his office until 10 at night if people need to talk. He is what a professor should be. I also learned a ton in his class.
Do as much as you can to make connections with professors. Go to office hours. Talk to these people and create a bond you can carry forth. I wish I would have done that more. I have no regrets from college except maybe that.
A Spartanburg, S.C., native, Williams majored in broadcast journalism. She is considering job offers at TV stations in several states.
I'm good at two things — arguing and talking. My mom, my entire life, told me I need to be a lawyer because I can win any argument I get into. I'm really into politics. So coming into college, I decided to do political journalism.
The first weekend of college I fainted from heat exhaustion at my nephew's pee wee football game. I got a concussion from my fall and had to have a knee brace and walk around on crutches for my first two or three weeks. It was interesting learning where my classes were on crutches.
Jada Williams: "I've realized I enjoy journalism more than politics. I'm in love with local news. I love Columbia and I'd love to stay here."
My biggest worry was being away from home. I grew up with nine older siblings. We're very close. It was weird for me knowing I was going to get dropped off and be an hour and a half away from my mom, but I still talk to my mom multiple times a day. If I have a question, I Facetime or call her.
My first two years I didn't go out enough to make friends. I held onto a high school relationship. Once that ended, making friends came naturally to me.
I'd tell new students that there will come a point where you decide to stay in Columbia instead of choosing to go home over the weekend.
My junior year I had an internship that opened a door for me. I worked on Hillary Clinton's primary campaign. From August until March, I met celebrities, I drove in the motorcade, I ended up helping with the advance staff. I became accustomed to sitting in a room and having conversations with Secretary Clinton. I remember calling my mom and telling her I just brought Secretary Clinton lunch and we sat in the holding room chatting.
At the age of 20 I did things that are ridiculously cool.
One night I had to pick up Angela Bassett and Vivica Fox from the airport. It was me and one of my bosses from the Clinton campaign — in my 2006 Altima. I had two celebrities in the backseat of my car. I remember asking them about a song from the '90s and we started talking about music.
I had another internship with WACH-Fox. I've realized I enjoy journalism more than politics. I'm in love with local news. I love Columbia and I'd love to stay here.
A sport and entertainment management major and Easley, S.C., native, Rice will be an account coordinator at Jackson Motorsports Group in Greenville.
I'd tell my freshman self to take advantage of the time you have. The amount of resources and opportunities and connections and friendships you can make are limitless. If you step out of your comfort zone, it can take you to some really cool places.
College is the perfect balance of freedom and responsibility.
Logan Rice: "I would argue the change from a newborn to a 2-year-old is physical. The change you make from freshman to senior year is spiritual and emotional."
They say it's the college experience. Make sure you experience the college experience.
I remember when I came to tour campus. I was sitting with my parents after the tour on a bench on the Horseshoe. I remember saying, "This is where I'm going."
Move-in day was a mix of nerves and excitement. I walked the route to my classes three times before the first day of classes even started.
Everybody has that fear of "Am I going to fit in?" Looking back, that's a hilarious question. Relax and be yourself. Everybody is rushing around the first few days. I remember constantly thinking, "Is this somebody who is going to be my friend?" Relax. You're going to make friends.
The "I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing" feeling happened my sophomore year. I switched majors from music to sport and entertainment management.
Sure enough, mothers know best. When I was in high school, my mom saw the sport and entertainment management program and told me it was something I should look at.
In sport and entertainment management, the faculty are people who have lived it. The knowledge and experience and contacts they have are amazing. I want to go into sports marketing because of Dr. Khalid Ballouli's class. He had a way of making it all tangible.
College is the most growth you experience since birth. I would argue the change from a newborn to a 2-year-old is physical. The change you make from freshman to senior year is spiritual and emotional.
Being able to hang out with 11,000 of your best friends at a football game, or freaking out and jumping in a nasty fountain because your team is in the Final Four — I'll miss that.
A class I didn't think I would enjoy so much was choir. I had no expectations, but Dr. Alicia Walker is fantastic. She made such an impact on me. That class shaped me. The power of music in that class helped me through some interesting parts of my life. And we sang at Carnegie Hall.
A North Myrtle Beach, S.C., native, McCarthy majored in management and marketing. She has accepted a job with Aspen Square property management and will begin a trainee program in Massachusetts after graduation.
I'm in the TRiO program, so I got to move into South Tower a day early my freshman year. I remember it being overwhelming, but in a good sense. You walk into this room that's an empty box, and that's what you're working with for the next year.
Lauren McCarthy: "On campus, you feel like you're invited. It's home."
I was pretty grateful about the fact I even got to go to college so I took advantage of everything I could.
After I was accepted, I started talking with Althea Counts (TRiO associate director). She was a lifesaver. I know I'm so lucky. College is expensive. Just the fact that I'm able to afford it through scholarships — I don't take that for granted.
Freshman year, I was almost too involved. But freshman year was also the best year of my life.
My biggest fear when I got here was failing. I was afraid I wasn't going to be successful. But I was determined I was going to do college as best as I could and not take it for granted.
Freshman year I worried about what other people thought more than I did later in college.
I'm most proud of my involvement with Relay for Life. We've raised so much money. My mom has breast cancer — she got it my senior year of high school. It was great to go into a group and connect with other people who understand.
Go abroad. I'd never been out of the country. I thought I was going to another planet when I got on that plane. But it taught me so many life lessons.
My junior year, three of my girlfriends and I were in a two-bedroom. I lived in the living room. Now, every time I see a bed in the living room, I remember when I lived next to the kitchen counter. I think, "Wow, that was so college." I wouldn't do it again, but I'm glad it happened.
I care about this place because USC cared about me. It gave me opportunities. I'm thankful for all the mistakes I made and learned from, and all the opportunity I've been given.
I'll miss the feeling you get on campus, especially when you see someone you know. On campus, you feel like you're invited. It's home.

FX: Stimulus Talks, Brexit and New Global Virus Restrictions
Daily FX Market Roundup October 12, 2020
The most important drivers of forex flows this week will be stimulus talks, Brexit negotiations and new virus restrictions in Europe and Asia. Based on the continued gains in US stocks, equity traders are completely unfazed by the possibility of things going awry. Currency traders on the other hand are more skeptical with USD/JPY falling for the second consecutive trading day and high beta currencies like euro and the Australian dollar slipping lower. The losses are small which suggests that forex traders are still trying to decide if its wise to go against the move in stocks.
The primary reason why stocks are strong is because regardless of who wins the November 3rd election, investors expect a major stimulus package. Now, the sooner the House agrees to a deal, the more durable the equity market rally. President Trump hopes to boost his chance of reelection by providing stimulus quickly but according to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the White House's latest proposal is "grossly inadequate." So its highly unlikely there will be agreement on a big stimulus package before November 3rd but Treasury Secretary Mnuchin and White House Chief of Staff Meadows are hoping for a quick win with a vote to approve the use of untapped Paycheck Protection Program funds.
The unpredictability of stimulus headlines, leaves data and Fed speak as the only scheduled catalysts. The US calendar is busy this week with inflation, retail sales, manufacturing data and the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment report due for release. Federal Reserve Presidents are also expected to speak every day this week. Although wage growth slowed in the month of September, a further recovery in spending is expected. The same is likely for manufacturing but inflation will remain low. Consumer sentiment will be interesting because even though stocks rallied, confidence could take hit from the abysmal performance by both Presidential candidates at their first debate and Trump's contraction of COVID-19.
Meanwhile the overall strength of sterling is impressive considering the looming Brexit deadline and rising virus cases. Prime Minister Johnson made it clear that he is ready to walk away if there is no agreement with the European Union by Thursday. The main issues are fishing rights and state aid. The EU wants the UK to follow its state aid rules and give their fishing fleets full access to UK waters. Extending the October 15th deadline is also an option but regardless of whether that happens if an agreement is not reached this week, sterling will crash lower. The economic outlook for the UK is grim. The government introduced a 3 tier lockdown plan that will weigh heavily on growth. The majority of England is at a medium level where groups are limited to 6 people and pubs and restaurants are forced to close at 10pm. A high level would restrict any mixing of households and a very high level would involve the closure of all pubs, bars and gyms. The city of Liverpool has been placed on very high alert.
Many Eurozone nations are in a similar boat with coronavirus cases surging across Europe. France reported nearly 27,000 new cases in one day this weekend. The continent is experiencing a full blown second wave and countries with cases far fewer than France, such as Germany and the Netherlands have announced restrictions. Spain declared a state of emergency in the Madrid region that would limit travel outside of Madrid and six other areas – there's already a curfew in place for bars and restaurants. No matter how you look at it, the Eurozone economy will be hit hard by the second wave. National governments are reluctant to move back to full lockdown despite cases being much higher than March but local citizens may take matters into their own hands and stay home. The Australian and New Zealand dollars traded lower on Monday while the Canadian dollar rallied after last week's better than expected labor market.

Studying STEM at Varndean College
LeafletCentre Flyer
Through our teaching, we encourage students to move on to higher level STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) courses and into a STEM career. These students would hopefully go on to work on some of the biggest developments of the 21st Century. Who knows where they will end up; even the sky itself is no longer a limiting factor.
We are very proud to have been given government funding to build a new £2.9m STEM centre, which is due to open here in February 2020, and hope to continue our promotion of STEM with even greater numbers of students.
STEM subjects are the foundations of the industrial and corporate world. Students who study these subjects will gain a diverse and comprehensive skill set. As such, these subjects present a high currency for universities and are also sought after by a wide range of employers.
STEM skills are essential and not only contribute to the UK's manufacturing and research output, but they also offer exciting opportunities in emerging technologies. The promotion of these subjects by government is intended to 'help empower future generations through science, technology, engineering and mathematics to grow a dynamic, innovative economy.'
Varndean College is particularly keen to encourage a greater involvement in STEM by all students and, in particular, we want to see more female students studying and working in this area. We will be running Women in STEM events this coming year.
We offer a range of STEM subjects: Natural Sciences (Biology, Chemistry and Physics) as well as Mathematics and Computer Science. New for September 2020 we will also be offering a Level 3 BTEC Diploma in Engineering. The rigorous academic framework of these subjects, combined with the requisite technical and practical skills developed during the course of study, make them ideal choices for those with enquiring minds and are the foundation stones for a number of important career routes.
At Varndean College, through our challenging and engaging teaching, we hope to inspire and motivate the next generation of scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians.
Computer Science is a subject that spans theory and practice. Through the study of this subject, you will become a confident programmer using different coding languages to solve problems. You will learn how to apply computational thinking to decompose larger problems into smaller ones and use a range of techniques to solve them. You will learn how computers work and how encryption allows the safe transfer of private data over public networks. You will also learn about security issues such as hacking and how viruses are spread.
Many students choose to study Computer Science and related subjects at degree level. Popular choices include computer science, robotics, artificial intelligence, computer forensics, software engineering, networking, digital media, web development, e-business and computer games design. Some students move onto foundation degrees or HND courses. Apprenticeships are also increasingly popular with the many technology firms in the Sussex area.
Creative and aesthetic, technical, organisational and interpersonal, analytical and communication, and organisational and teamwork skills.
Maths plays a valuable role in technology and the economy. It is used to solve real world problems and can open up solutions that were previously not understood. It is a system of reason and logic used to explain the universe and is both practical and creative. Pursuing an education in maths equips you with skills that are highly valued in most careers. Mathematical ability is very highly regarded by both universities and employers.
Maths qualifications are considered essential or desirable for a whole host of degree subjects including virtually all sciences, economics and related courses and many social science courses. There is a national shortage of mathematicians, and employment prospects are good. To get some idea of careers open to those studying Maths at A Level and beyond, look at the careers section at Maths Careers.
Problem solving, logical thinking, conceptual ability, analysis and interpretation of data, research skills.
Studying Biology at Varndean College gave me a firm foundation in the subject enabling me to complete a BSc in Biology at the University of Bath. Currently I am working for the University of Arizona in Phoenix researching the effects of traumatic brain injury on children and adolescents in pre-clinical model.
Tabitha Green, Varndean College 2013-15, Bsc Biology with Professional Placement at University of Bath
The field of biology is a complex and rapidly evolving science. It helps us understand the behaviour of living systems from the level of cells to whole organisms and ecosystems. The study of biology can include areas such as advanced genetics, evolutionary biology, plant biotechnology, tropical medicine, marine biology, animal and human physiology, zoology, microbiology, forensic biology, environmental biology, molecular biosciences and neuroscience.
If you are fascinated by life and living processes then biology is the subject for you. It will help you to develop a much more detailed scientific knowledge and understanding of the subject.
Many students go on to degree courses in Medicine (with Chemistry A level), Nursing, Physiotherapy, and Biological Science degrees. It is essential for Medicine related and Biological Sciences but is also highly valued for subjects such as Law. This subject can lead to careers in the biotechnical services.
Data analysis (including use of IT); problem solving; producing balanced ethical arguments; scientific literacy; teamwork.
Chemistry has a worldwide impact. As a fundamental physical science it has a lasting effect on our planet; trained chemists will be needed to help tackle the challenges society faces in changes to environment, food security and energy supply. Almost every new technological change and important discovery has its foundation in Chemistry.
Chemistry is the key to influencing life and making the world a better place in which to live. It provides the basis for medicine, agriculture, food technology, environmental science, forensic science and many other fields. Having a chemistry qualification is like having an open flight ticket to any destination in the world!
Many students go on to degree courses in Chemistry, Biochemistry, Medicine and medically related subjects, Food Technology, Environmental Science, Agriculture, Law and Forensic Science.
Chemistry graduates earn around 30% more during their career through having intellectual, communication, organisational, interpersonal, research, numeracy and IT skills.
Physics explains how the universe works as simply as possible. From Quarks to Quasars, Physics is all about understanding and predicting nature. You will look at how our world (and beyond) behaves and try to make sense of it. You will enjoy Physics if you want to find out about life, the universe and everything, develop models to explain how the world we live in works, sharpen your problem-solving skills and see how physics is used all around us. You will discover that our ideas of how things work have changed over the centuries; scientists are not always 'right'. A theory only lasts until an experiment proves it wrong! Then we need a new one.
Many students go on to degree courses in Physics, Astronomy, Mathematics, Engineering, Research, Financial Management, Law, Medicine and numerous other fields. Physics is an in-demand subject in the UK and, indeed, worldwide.
Analysis, problem-solving, communication, modelling, research, mathematical skills, evidence-based decision-making.
I chose Varndean because it felt really friendly, like the teachers actually cared about getting to know you as a person. They know how to create a real sense of community and are able to offer personalised help, which meant I never felt lost in the crowd.

Georgy Maximilianovich Malenkov (Russian: Гео́ргий Максимилиа́нович Маленко́в, Georgij Maksimilianovič Malenkov, 8 January 1902 – 14 January 1988) was a Macedonian-Russian politician in the Soviet Union and the Premier of the Soviet Union after the death of Joseph Stalin in March, 1953 until February, 1955. Malenkov served as the Premier (official head of government) of the country while Nikita Krushchev was the First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
He formed a team with Nikolai Bulganin, Vyacheslav Molotov, and Lazar Kaganovich, and together they tried to throw Khrushchev out of power. Krushchev eventually won the battle for power, and in 1957 Malenkov was forced to leave his position in the Party Politburo. In 1961, he was kicked out of the Party and forced to move to Kazakhstan.
Along with Krushchev, Malenkov was one of a few important members of Stalin's group of partners (called the "inner circle") who died a natural death, and was not executed.
Together with Lavrentiy Beria & Krushchev, Malenkov began the process of destalinization, completing the process in 1961.

FRIENDS FOR-FEATHER – Man and Magpie hit it off
in Animals, Bizarre, Cute, Most Popular
A man has become best friends with a magpie after rescuing the garden bird from the clutches of a cat at just two weeks old.
Peter Redwood-Smith, 21, became a devoted adoptive father to the black and white bird named Pica after saving it when it fell out of its nest.
He has hand reared and nurtured the tiny chick and the bird now happily sits on Peter's shoulder throughout the day.
The bird is capable of flying away now and can come and go as he pleases – but instead has chosen to stay close to his friend's side.
Peter, from Rayleigh, Essex, said: "Pica has free roam and he follows me from room-to-room.
"He's started to pick up a few little tricks now and he will try to steal things.
"He will run off with a number of things, he takes money quite a lot like five pound notes and coins.
"He's even tried to run off with a pair of scissors and will hide things around the shop.
"But when I call him he comes to me and he tries to speak to me as well.
"Apparently they are very clever and have the intelligence of a five-year-old."
Peter has even set up a YouTube channel and Facebook page where his fans can keep up to date with the pair's latest adventures.
He rescued the bird almost six weeks ago when it had no tail feathers and was so weak it could barely stand.
Peter feeds him a number of different things including duck, chicken, pheasant, meal worms, crickets and locusts.
The shop owner added: "I found him right outside my shop and brought him.
"There was a cat just outside and Pica was so tiny he couldn't have outrun the cat.
"It's very lucky he was saved just in time otherwise he would almost certainly have met an untimely end.
"I have hand-raised Pica and looked after him. I had to feed him by hand so that he could build up his strength.
"I am just trying to give him the best life I can, he's a lovely little bird. He's very friendly."
Pica has flown away twice but has returned to his adoptive dad not long afterwards.
He goes outside for up to two hours a day where he forages for food such as earth worms.
Magpies are known to be clever and inquisitive garden birds which pick up all sorts of things to explore them – and they can even recognise their own reflection in a mirror.
But the birds are also a nuisance to other garden birds as they eat songbird eggs and chicks.
Their natural diet is quite broad as they eat insects, mice and other small rodents, as well as berries and fruits.

Space: Israel Exports Its Spy Satellites
August 4, 2012: An Israeli firm is building a surveillance satellite for Italy. This bird will weigh under 400 kg (880 pounds) and will use a 600 kilometers high orbit. The Italian satellite appears to be an improved version of the Israeli Ofek photo satellite. The first one of these went up in 1988 and the latest one (Ofek 9) went up two years ago and weighs about 300 kg (660 pounds). The Ofek 9 has a new generation of sensors that are able to see objects as small as 55 cm (twenty inches).
Israel also developed its own satellite launcher: Shavit. The first two stages of the Shavit are also used for the Israeli Jericho 3 IRBM (Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile). With a range of nearly 5,000 kilometers, the Jericho 3 can drop a nuke anywhere in the Middle East. Jericho is a 30 ton, solid fuel, two stage missile, with a half-ton payload. Israel sometimes uses launchers from other nations. Four years ago an Israeli radar satellite, TekSar, was launched using an Indian launcher. In addition to Israeli built Ofek and TekSar birds, Israeli intelligence also uses Eros B and Eros A (Israeli civilian photo satellite) for some military missions.
It usually takes two years for Israel to build a new recon satellite and then it requires ten months to plan and carry out the launching, using an Israeli rocket. The satellite launch facility is located at the same Palmahim Air Base where Jericho 3 ballistic missiles and Arrow anti-missile missiles are also based.
The Italian spy satellite will cost $182 million and be part of a deal where Italy agreed to buy an equal value of Israeli military gear as part of a deal where Israel bought $993 million worth of Italian jet trainers. Italy managed to cover this with the purchase of two AWACs and a spy satellite from Israel.

La sinagoga de Cherasco es un ejemplo todavía intacto de una sinagoga de gueto piamontés. Construido en el siglo XVIII, se encuentra en el último piso de un edificio en via Marconi 6, en la zona del antiguo gueto.

El edificio
Con el establecimiento del gueto en 1730, se construyó la nueva sinagoga, posteriormente renovada en 1797, como recuerda una placa colocada en el vestíbulo de entrada sobre el lavatorio.

Como es típico en las sinagogas de gueto, nada debería haber mostrado la presencia del lugar de culto desde el exterior. Por el contrario, el interior está ricamente decorado en estilo barroco piamontés. La sala de oración es una pequeña sala cuadrangular con muebles del siglo XVIII en madera tallada y pintada. El entorno está iluminado por grandes ventanales que dan a un patio interior. El aron de madera pintada se coloca contra el muro oriental, de modo que la congregación orante mira hacia Jerusalén; tiene puertas doradas y finamente cinceladas con las palabras de los Diez Mandamientos, está flanqueada a cada lado por columnas retorcidas y coronada por una pequeña ventana redonda. En el centro de la habitación está la tevá octogonal, en madera tallada y pintada, adornada con ocho columnas con dosel retorcido de colores brillantes. La misma tipología se encuentra en las sinagogas de Carmagnola, Mondovì y Chieri.

Las paredes están decoradas con apliques de espejos, diseños florales e inscripciones en hebreo. De la bóveda de cañón, pintado en azul grisáceo con detalles en melocotón, cuelgan numerosas lámparas de bronce. El mobiliario se complementa con simples bancos de madera oscura colocados contra las paredes. El suelo es de baldosas hexagonales grises y azules. El pequeño matroneo se asoma al salon desde lo alto, protegido por una reja de madera, enmarcada por pequeñas columnas pintadas; se accede desde el atrio a través de una empinada escalera. Frente a la puerta del templo se abre el aula de la escuela para la enseñanza de la Torá.

La sinagoga logró superar el largo período de abandono en el siglo XX debido a la desaparición de la comunidad local sin excesivo daño y alienación. Hoy el templo, propiedad de la comunidad judía de Turín, está gestionado por la Fundación DeBenedetti Cherasco 1547 que garantiza su apertura regular y se ha convertido en un lugar popular de visita. Una pequeña exposición didáctica, "Vida y cultura judía en el Piamonte en los siglos XVIII y XIX", montada desde 1984 en las salas adyacentes a la sinagoga por Giorgio Avigdor, da la bienvenida a los numerosos visitantes.

Alma Rutgers: Tesei's failure to combat bigotry
By Alma Rutgers
Updated 12:00 am EST, Sunday, January 27, 2019
Carl Higbie addresses the crowd at the Greenwich Town Hall Meeting Room in Greenwich, Conn., Feb. 26, 2014.

The statements are appalling.
"I think stick a fence six feet high with signs on it in both English and Spanish and it says 'if you cross this border, this is the American border, you cross it, we're going to shoot you.'"
"You cross my border, I will shoot you in the face ... I'll volunteer to go down there and stand on that border for, I don't know, a week or so at a time and that'll be my civil duty."
The racism is heinous.
"Somebody who lives in my condo association that has five kids, and it's her and her husband with the five kids and the mother, the grandmother of the kids, and they don't have jobs, they're there all the time — I bet you can guess what color they are — and they have no job."
"I believe wholeheartedly ... the black race as a whole ... is lazier than the white race, period." And that black women "think that breeding is a form of government employment."
The bigotry is explicit.
"Rhode Island, land of more liberals, has just OK'ed, gay marriage ... Congratuf'in'lations, you suck, Rhode Island. Why would you do that? Go ahead and twist the knife a little, little bit more ... you are breaking the morals, the moral fiber of our country. You know, I don't like gay people. I just don't."
"I just don't like Muslim people. People always rip me a new one for that. Carl, you're racist, you can't, you're sexist. I'm like Jesus Christ. I just don't like Muslim people because their ideology sucks."
And there's the misogyny.
"Nothing gets me going like Ted Cruz, when he went off on the Feinstein Bitch about the Second Amendment and he put her in her place ... That was just fantastic. I can't stand that woman. She's another one. Her and Pelosi. I'd love to just take both their heads and smack them together a couple of times."
These are among Carl Higbie's many hateful statements made in radio broadcasts during 2013 and 2014, uncovered last year by CNN. Higbie, a former Navy SEAL who grew up in Greenwich and currently lives here, had to resign his Trump-appointed post as chief of external affairs for the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) last January when his vile statements came to light. Higbie, a spokesman for the Trump-aligned Great America PAC during the 2016 presidential campaign, currently hosts a program on America's Voice News, a digital entertainment and news network.
Why, we must ask, are Greenwich First Selectman Peter Tesei and one of Greenwich's state legislators, Fred Camillo, welcoming this purveyor of hate to Greenwich Town Hall for the launch of an America's Voice News series of town meetings?
Greenwich Time quotes Camillo as acknowledging the "horrible things" Higbie has said, but with the qualification that this was "many years ago." Camillo believes Higbie's program will encourage respectful, bipartisan discourse.
But four years, even five, is not that long ago. Moreover, as recently as June 2016, Higbie said people who receive government assistance (presumably those lazy black people that he's characterized, especially the women who "breed" for welfare checks) shouldn't be allowed to vote in the subsequent election.
In November 2016, Higbie advocated for a Muslim registry, citing the internment camps for Japanese Americans during World War II as a precedent.
I sent Tesei an email on Wednesday in my capacity as former chair of the First Selectman's Diversity Advisory Committee now headed by Pamela Toper. I expressed concern that he undermines his committee's efforts to combat bigotry and promote diversity: "I would hope that you would see it as an opportunity to reinforce the work of your diversity advisory committee by denouncing all forms of bigotry, including Higbie's earlier statements, and proclaiming that such attitudes and speech have no place in Greenwich."
In his email response, Tesei agreed with my statement, but also suggested "restorative justice and rehabilitation" for those who engage in such speech.
But is Higbie repentant?
Hardly. He walks back last year's apology and continues to say offensive things.
"... transgender is a pretend thing ..." he recently tweeted.
Tesei needs to do the right thing. He must deny Higbie the town's imprimatur.

What does joint conduct in a property sale mean?
Does this mean that both parties should have a say in what the property is marketed for?
Ive posted before on here and received advice on an enforcement order for the sale of my jointly owned house, Im not living there, my ex has been since I left in 2015.
House been on the market nearly two years. so I put an enforcement order in and the ex has come straight back with an application to buy £25K less than what its being marketed for and has made his own deductions for a fence that he repaired (after I left) so he's now saying that he can get a buy to let mortgage and will have to move out as he owes so much money and is desperate to repay family debts. So my question is how is he affording to buy my share. His accounts show company making a loss, there have been arrears on mortgage statement up till march 18, he only pays £200 child maintenance for 2 children as says this is based on his earnings making his earnings £9300/yr, it doesn't add up so I want to write to him/his solicitor and ask for him to prove his affordability before court. Is this a good idea? At least then I will have something to show CMS and if the judge does agree to allow him time to raise the funds and he does buy my share and rent the property I will at least have the proof of his earnings.
Court date is end April, I have only just been given the hearing date.


Amendments to the Motor Vehicle Act will take effect on Sunday, June 1, to clarify driver and pedestrian responsibilities for crosswalk safety.
"There is a shared responsibility between pedestrians and motorists at crosswalks and intersections," said Murray Scott, Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure Renewal. "We are confident these amendments will provide clearer direction for everyone."
The amendments were passed by the legislature in fall 2007, after an interim report by the Joint Crosswalk Safety Taskforce.
In April, the province accepted recommendations cited in the final report, including an initial investment of $300,000 over three years. The task force made 42 recommendations in education, engineering, enforcement and evaluation.
requiring pedestrians crossing a street at any location other than a crosswalk, to yield the right-of-way to vehicles.
"These amendments are part of our ongoing efforts to improve the safety of all road users in Nova Scotia," said Mr. Scott.
Motorists and pedestrians who fail to abide by the Motor Vehicle Act are subject to penalties such as demerit points, licence suspensions and fines ranging from $500 for a first offence to $2,000 for a third offence.
The crosswalk safety amendments are part of the province's legislative enforcement and awareness initiatives to improve road safety, including a ban on hand-held cellphones, doubling fines for speeding in school and construction zones, legislation to combat street racing and an integrated impaired driving enforcement unit. The legislation also supports government's priority to keep communities safe.
Amendments to the Motor Vehicle Act will take effect on Sunday (June 1st) to clarify driver and pedestrian responsibilities when it comes to crosswalk safety.
The amendments were passed by the legislature in fall 2007, after an interim report by the Joint Crosswalk Safety Taskforce. In April, the province accepted all 42 recommendations cited in the final report, including an initial investment of 300-thousand dollars over three years.
Transportation and Infrastructure Renewal Minister Murray Scott says the amendments are part of the government's ongoing efforts to improve the safety of Nova Scotians.

Nivea Men wanted to attract more men to moisturise as part of the re-launch of their Originals moisturiser range. Research tells us that the best way to change men's attitudes is to create an emotional reason to try moisturising, and the best way to change men's behaviour is to put the product into their hands. But sampling alone couldn't achieve the scale we needed, and wouldn't be enough to ensure a successful launch.
We know that when you take a little care to look good on the outside, you feel good on the inside and you're ready to perform at the top of your game. But we needed to deliver this message in a way our audience could relate to.
Taking advantage of Nivea Men's football credentials (official suppliers to the England Squad and the Dutch Eredivisie league) we dramatised the feeling you get from taking care of your skin and created our Man of the Match campaign, turning a standard sampling event into something much, much bigger in social media, online and in-store.

Miedniewice – wieś w Polsce położona w województwie mazowieckim, w powiecie żyrardowskim, w gminie Wiskitki. Położona przy granicy Bolimowskiego Parku Krajobrazowego. Sanktuarium maryjne.

Wieś szlachecka położona była w drugiej połowie XVI wieku w powiecie sochaczewskim ziemi sochaczewskiej województwa rawskiego. Do 1954 roku siedziba gminy Guzów. W latach 1954–195x wieś należała i była siedzibą władz gromady Miedniewice, po jej zniesieniu w gromadzie Guzów. W latach 1975–1998 miejscowość administracyjnie należała do województwa skierniewickiego.

Przez miejscowość przepływa niewielka rzeka Sucha, dopływ Bzury.

We wsi znajduje się barokowy kościół wybudowany w latach 1737-1748 projektu J. Fontany i T. Bellotiego, w którym znajduje się drzeworyt z XVII wieku przedstawiający Świętą Rodzinę przy posiłku. W 1677 obraz został uznany za cudowny i w 1767 koronowany.

Obok kościoła dawny klasztor reformatów (obecnie klasztor klarysek) wybudowany w latach 1692–1705. Co roku, w sierpniu, jest jednym z przystanków na drodze pątników Warszawskiej Akademickiej Pielgrzymki Metropolitalnej w drodze na Jasną Górę. Kompleks znajduje się na szlaku Perły Mazowsza w jego pętli zachodniej.

Z Miedniewic pochodził znany kardiochirurg i polityk Zbigniew Religa.

Q: How can I rotate 20 degrees off of a Vector2 direction in unity2d? I'm trying to cast a ray on Vector2.right and another ray on either side of it by 20 degrees.
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class PathFinding : MonoBehaviour
{
    public float speed = 5f;

    // Update is called once per frame
    private void Update()
    {
        //replace target.position with Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition) to follow mouse pointer
        Vector2 direction = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition) - transform.position;
        float angle = Mathf.Atan2(direction.y, direction.x) * Mathf.Rad2Deg;
        Quaternion rotation = Quaternion.AngleAxis(angle, Vector3.forward);
        transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(transform.rotation, rotation, speed * Time.deltaTime);

        if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Space))
        {
            Debug.DrawRay(transform.position, transform.TransformDirection(Vector2.right) * 10f, Color.green);
            RaycastHit2D front = Physics2D.Raycast(transform.position, transform.TransformDirection(Vector2.right), 10f);
            if (front)
            {
                Debug.Log("Hit Something : " + front.collider.name);
                //hit.transform.GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>().color = Color.red;
                Debug.DrawRay(transform.position, transform.TransformDirection(Vector2.right) * 10f, Color.red);
            }

            RaycastHit2D left1 = Physics2D.Raycast(transform.position, transform.Rotate_Direction(Vector2.right), 10f);
        }
    }
}

It's just in the last line of code that I'm having a hard time. I want to add a slight rotation to the transform.Rotate_direction(Vector2.right) bit.
I'm pretty new to programming and especially to this here so if you could explain what you do and maybe show me how to implement it that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

A: By multiplying the Quaternion behind the vector you can change its direction. In your question, you need to use Quaternion.AngleAxis.
Quaternion.AngleAxis(20f, Vector3.forward) * Vector2.right

'Game of Thrones' Showrunners Say Season 6 Won't Spoil Future Books…Too Much
Posted on Thursday, March 24th, 2016 by Jacob Hall
It's a weird time to be a Game of Thrones fan. As author George R.R. Martin struggles to finish The Winds of Winter, the sixth book in his A Song of Ice and Fire series, the HBO series based on his work has flown past where he left off. The tides have turned: book readers who used to lord their advance knowledge of certain events over show watchers now have to watch in horror as the show spoils future books for them.
Or maybe not. Now, showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss say that spoiler-phobic book fans should be perfectly fine checking out the new season. It won't spoil nearly as much as everyone suspects.
Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Benioff and Weiss (who are awfully fond of the new season) explained that the many changes that have been made during the adaptation process really come home to roost in the show's sixth season. In various blog posts, Martin has described this as the "Butterfly Effect" – the series makes a change in early seasons that changes the direction of entire storylines and characters further down the road. Benioff says that the big picture is still the same, but the changes add up and the details become completely different:
People are talking about whether the books are going to be spoiled – and it's really not true. So much of what we're doing diverges from the books at this point. And while there are certain key elements that will be the same, we're not going to talk so much about that – and I don't think George is either. People are going to be very surprised when they read the books after the show. They're quite divergent in so many respects for the remainder of the show.
Weiss adds that it's better to think of the series and the books as two completely separate entities, two continuities that just so happen to take place in the same world and deal with the same characters:
What makes the books so great is that George doesn't make meticulous blueprints for every beat of this story and then fill in the blanks dutifully going from A to B to C, fleshing out an outline. At a certain point, we realized we were going to outpace the books and we kind of chose to see it as a great thing on both sides – there's this amazing world George has created and now there are two different versions, and there's no reason we can see why you can't be thrilled and surprised and dismayed by both of these different versions of this world.
This shouldn't be too hard to deal with, as many fans have already separated "book canon" and "show canon." There's a reason there's a Game of Thrones wiki and a Song of Ice and Fire wiki. They're completely different in so many ways at this point.
So yeah, Game of Thrones season 6 will spoil some stuff and may shed some light on some major events that will transpire in future books, but the paths to those big events sound like they'll be very different. After all, many characters who are dead on the show are alive in the books and vice versa. Season five already saw several storylines completely diverge from the source material in gigantic ways – Tyrion and Sansa's storylines are entirely different from their book counterparts', for example. Still, whether you ultimately decide to watch this and risk any kind of potential book spoiler is between you and the Seven. Or you and R'hllor. You've got options in Westeros.
Game of Thrones season 6 will premiere on April 24, 2016.

Q: How to check if an element has not a div?

 etc...

 etc...

I want to check if a div.parent does not contain a child element called .childrens, so if not add div.childrens and wrapAll childrens inside this div.
This is what I tried (see this jsFiddle):
$(".container").find(".parent").each(function() {
    if(!$(".parent").find('.childrens').length){
        $(".parent").children().wrapAll("

");
    }
});

but doesn't work. What I did wrong?
Any help is appreciated! Thank you so much and sorry for my bad english!

A: You should reference each parent container separately with this. Change your code to this:
$(".container").find(".parent").each(function() {
    if (!$(this).find('.childrens').length){
        $(this).children().wrapAll("

");
    }
});

http://jsfiddle.net/6PY29/3/

A: There is no need for the each. You can use not, has, and wrapInner can solve it.
$(".container .parent").not(':has(".children")').wrapInner('

');

JSFiddle
Another way to write it would be
$(".container .parent:not(:has(.children))").wrapInner('

');

The problem with your code is the fact you are reselecting all of the .parent elements again and not using this to work with the element that is currently being referenced on that iteration. Your code would need to look more like
$(".container").find(".parent").each(function() {
    var currentParent = $(this);
    if(!currentParent.find('.childrens').length){
        currentParent.children().wrapAll("

");
    }
});

A: Instead of .parent use this
$("#container").find(".parent").each(function() {
    if(!$(this).find('.childrens').length) {
        $(".parent").children().wrapAll("

");
    }
});

A: Try this:
if(!$(this).find('.childrens').length){
    $(this).children().wrapAll("

");
}

Your updated fiddle

You have to target your current element with $(this) in your .each() iteration and you just targeted with it's className which looks for all classes available in the #container.

A: Inside of the each loop you need to use $(this) to reference the current parent element. Currently you are checking all parent elements:
$("#container").find(".parent").each(function() {
     if(!$(this).find('.childrens').length){
          $(this).children().wrapAll("

");
     }
});

http://jsfiddle.net/6PY29/2/
Also, your fiddle didn't have jQuery selected in the options so would never have worked.

A: I'd suggest:
$('.parent').filter(function (){
    return !$(this).find('.children').length;
}).each(function (){
    $(this).contents().wrapAll('

');
});

A: $(".container").find(".parent").each(function() {
    var parent = $(this);
    if(!parent.find('.childrens').length){
        parent.children().wrapAll("

");
    }
});

A: use:
$(".container").find(".parent").each(function() {
  if(!$(this).find('.childrens').length){
   $(this).children().wrapAll("

");
  }
});
