Q: How to put into "f.submit" helper some HTML code? If I need to add something into link_to helper, there's a way to do that this way:
= link_to path do
 inner content

But this approach doesn't work for f.submit helper. I would need to add there some HTML entities. How to do that?

A: I'm afraid you can't. <input type="submit" /> is a button, as specified here: http://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/Elements/input/submit. HTML buttons can't display arbitrary content.
Instead you could build a link tag (or whatever tag you want) and then attach a click handler to it which will submit the form with javascript.

Google paves way for Google Photos & bids a bye to Picasa
By Suraj	 On Feb 13, 2016
Google bids a bye to its photo service; Picasa as Google photos takes over the former. In this regard, Google also shut down its official blog on Picasa on Friday thus indicating that the service will no longer be available.
On the other hand, Google Photos has been seeing better demand as it is well embedded into mobile phones. Google also finds it better to operate one efficient digital photo viewer service rather than running both Picasa as well as Google photos which more or less serve the same purpose.
In one of his posts, Anil Sabharwal, the Head of Google Photos wrote, "After much thought and consideration, we've decided to retire Picasa over the coming months in order to focus entirely on a single photo service in Google Photos," and also added, "We believe we can create a much better experience by focusing on one service that provides more functionality and works across mobile and desktop, rather than divide our efforts across two different products."
When Google took over Picasa back then in 2004, it did have a good deal of fans. It only became stagnant over the next few years and then got associated with Google+. Ever since Google launched its new app Photos in May, notifications have been reaching out to people to switch over to it.
Not surprisingly though, the new app has managed to get more than 100 million users during October itself. The additional features that the app carries and makes itself stand out of the category to which Picasa belongs to, is that it is much more advanced with an option to organize and tag images automatically. There will naturally be a transfer of user accounts from Picasa to Photos. It is indeed a matter of pride for Google as the above feature is one of its kinds.
While Picasa was built bearing in mind the computer users first, Photos is built targeting mobile users primarily. As Google promotes users to share their photos using their new app, one can sense that sense of competition that Google is trying to give Apple and Facebook which have been doing the same since some time now.
The users of Picasa will be able to have their images stores on Picasa only until May 1st this year, which is scheduled to be the last date on which Picasa works. Beyond May 1st, the service is planned to be shut down completely. People willing to have their pictures relocated to Photos from Picasa can choose to have them automatically uploaded onto Photos. Sabharwal also calls it "creating a new place" for people who use Picasa. The desktop application of Picasa will as well be withdrawn by Google from March 15.
Using a much automated service from Google is sure to bring down the tasks that the users had to do while tagging pictures and captioning them. Uploading photos seems to have just got easier.

Visualization conventions are as sticky as any other kind of convention. But stickiness isn't a proxy for goodness. We shouldn't use a graphic form uncritically just because it has become the default to represent a specific kind of data. Tradition alone isn't a good textbook.
At the bottom of this post there's a before-and-after exercise*. The original, on the left, comes from Spain's eldiario.es. Just for the record, I have mindlessly done tons of parliament charts like that in the past. The "mindlessly" part of that sentence is critical, as I was mimicking what many news infographics designers were doing.
But one day I actually tried to read the parliament-looking chart, and make comparisons. I couldn't. I needed to read every single figure to be able to mentally visualize variations.
You can see the evidence yourself. Read just one or two figures in the first chart below, force yourself not to read the rest, and then try to estimate changes accurately. Good luck with that.
So the parliament chart is nearly useless; a table would've been better. This chart is more a nice-looking abstract illustration than a visualization because a visualization should be an aid to understanding, not a hurdle.

Ceiling lamps can be directed to a particular point, for example, the retractable lamps that are placed on top of a dining table and are very practical to give right intense lighting where it is most needed. However, when using ceiling lamps directed vertically towards a particular area of a room or bedroom, we will possibly leave unlit areas, being necessary the placement of more lamps in the ceiling or another lighting.
Ceiling lamps can also be formed by different foci, which can be directed in several directions, helping us to illuminate different areas of the room or the bedroom. Check ceiling lights online price to save your money before purchase.
For ceiling lights, its best to enquire LED bulb online price in India. In principle, we advise you to make an approximate calculation of the lumens you need, in a room, we recommend that for each square meter you have 500 lumens, so you will have to choose the type of bulb depending on a number of lumens it can bring.
As for the color, warm or white, is a choice that will depend on your tastes, we advise you to choose a color that helps to enhance the primary colors that you have used throughout the decoration of the room. For example, if you have chosen warm colors, yellows, or creams, a yellowish light may help enhance the warmth effect, however, if the walls are blue, a white tone in the lighting will increase the Walls.

Film review: 'Mirrors of Diaspora' tells the story of artists exiled from a land lost to war
Netflix's latest Arabic original 'Dollar' stars Lebanese icon Adel Karam /node/1526916/lifestyle
'Dollar' is set for release on Aug. 8. (Supplied)
DUBAI: Netflix's latest Arabic original is set to hit TV screens on Aug. 8 and is called "Dollar," the streaming company announced this week.
The drama is set in modern-day Lebanon and stars Lebanese film veteran Adel Karam — who starred in "The Insult," which was nominated for an Oscar in 2018 — and Algerian-Lebanese actor Amal Bouchoucha.
The fast-paced series tells the story of advertising mastermind, Tarek (Adel Karam), who is tasked with coming up with a million dollar idea for the launch of a new bank. He's got it, but will only share his idea with the CEO. Something's off and the bank's hard-hitting young CFO, Zeina (Amal Bouchoucha), can sense it. The series follows the situation as Zeina tries to piece together exactly what is going on.
Helmed by Syrian director Samer Berkawi, the director behind such regional hit shows as "Al-Hayba" and "Half Day," the series was produced by Cedars Art Production - Sabbah Brothers and written by Hisham Hilal.
It is latest Middle Eastern series to join Netflix's cadre of shows and growing roster of Arabic-language productions, but marks a shift from the streaming company's penchant for Arab thrillers such as "Paranormal" — Netflix's first Egyptian drama, based on the best-selling Arabic horror series by late Egyptian author Ahmed Khaled Towfik — and "Jinn," which told the story of teenagers battling supernatural powers and faced backlash over its portrayal of young people in Jordan.
Despite the drama, on and off the screen, "Dollar" will premiere on Aug. 8, with all 15 episodes available to watch immediately.
Director Berkawi lauded the versatility of his cast in a released statement.
"I'm truly excited to be working with Netflix on our new series 'Dollar' and am confident that the show will appeal to Netflix's audiences worldwide. This project is an exciting one, bringing together themes of suspense and drama that showcase Amal Bouchoucha's onscreen talents, as well as Adel Karam's versatility beyond the comedy that he is known and loved for," he said.
"Dollar" will be subtitled in 20 languages.

Mori é um termo usado para se referir coletivamente a duas línguas de Celebes Central:  Mori Bawah e  Mori Atas. Às vezes, um terceiro idioma, Padoe, também é incluído.

História do termo
Originalmente, o termo 'Mori' se referia apenas a certos clãs que viviam no curso superior do rio Laa em Celebes Central, ou seja, os atuais Mori Atas ou povo 'Mori Superior'. Após a imposição do domínio colonial holandês no início do século XX, o nome foi estendido para incluir os povos que viviam a leste ao longo do curso inferior do Laa e na bacia hidrográfica de Tambalako (hoje Mori Bawah ou 'Mori Inferior'), e ao sul, para os povos ao redor Lago Matano (incluindo o Padoe). Embora as línguas dessas áreas fossem diferentes, as pessoas compartilhavam uma cultura semelhante, e naquela época também estavam unidas sob o poderoso governante Marundu.

Nos dias atuais, a situação se inverteu. Hoje, 'Mori' em seu sentido restrito refere-se principalmente à língua Mori Bawah, e ainda mais especificamente ao dialeto Tinompo, que as autoridades coloniais promoveram como um padrão em toda a área..

Classificação e convergência
Usando o método histórico-comparativo da linguística, Mead demonstrou que há uma divisão de línguas antiga que atravessa a área de Mori.  Mori Atas e Padoe estão mais intimamente relacionados com a língua língua lolaki do que com Mori Bawah, enquanto Mori Bawah compartilha suas afinidades linguísticas mais próximas com  Bungku e outras línguas da costa leste de Celebes, como  Wawonii e  Kulisusu. Essas antigas associações são claras a partir de padrões de mudança de som compartilhada e também são aparentes em conjuntos de pronomes.

Por exemplo, a tabela a seguir lista os pronomes independentes em cinco idiomas. Desta tabela, pode-se ver que os pronomes independentes de Mori Bawah se assemelham aos de Bungku, enquanto os pronomes de Mori Atas e Padoe são mais próximos aos de Tolaki.

À luz de tais diferenças, é improvável que as línguas Mori Atas e Mori Bawah sejam inerentemente inteligíveis. No entanto, por causa de laços culturais, comércio e mistura de suas populações através da imigração local, os Mori Atas e os Mori Bawah estão pelo menos familiarizados com as línguas uns dos outros, e as línguas têm convergido em termos de suas palavras, como pode ser visto em percentagens relativamente altas de similaridade lexical compartilhada.

I have this theory. That when I pour myself the most perfect hot cup of tea and get ready to sit down to read last Saturday's paper (yes, I am always at least a week behind), inevitably the baby will wake up or the doorbell will ring or some telemarketer will call.
Same thing goes when you have a perfect meal ready at the firehouse, inevitably the alarm will sound and we're rushing off to a call. Of course the meal will be there when we get back (that is if the stand-by crew hasn't poked, sniffed and prodded at it or snuck in a bite or three) but it's not the same when you have to nuke it and wolf it down before the next call comes. It's worse when you're in the midst of making a meal.... remembering to shut off the stove is a good move but even then meals are often ruined upon return..... boiled pasta sitting in a pot for hours is about as appetizing as wallpaper paste, and chicken is either bone dry or raw... which of course no one wants to eat because salmonella isn't our friend. The record for my crew for meal interruptus is five calls.... We sat down to eat at 6 pm and it was close to 11 by the time we could eat. I have learned since then to carry some power bars in my bunker gear.
I know firefighters often come under criticism for sounding like spoiled babies about a missed or ruined meal but just like in a nuclear family, sitting down to break bread is important for bonding, sharing a story or a joke and just unwinding. And it gives a great opportunity for the rookies to shine and fit in.... if they can cook, bonus points... if they can't, dish duty is always welcome.
So, I am going to start and hopefully finish my cup of tea right now.... let's hope my theory proves incorrect and Maiya stays asleep.

Should we shake hands during the church service?
Recently, I've come across a couple of suggestions that churches discontinue the long-standing practice of a hand-shaking and greeting time during regular services. I've heard several reasons presented for stopping the practice: 1) It makes visitors uncomfortable. When a stranger comes to the service and they have 50 people want to shake their hand in 5 minutes, it can be really disconcerting. 2) It spreads germs. People, especially in the winter, are very conscious about touching someone else's hand during flu and cold season. 3) It takes up too much time in the service. The service is already long enough and that 3-5 minutes of extra time is extraneous.
I'm of the belief that churches should have a greeting time during the service. There are several reasons which I'll briefly explain.
First, the concern over the comfort level of visitors comes from an extra-bibilical philosophy regarding the very purpose of the church. My doctoral dissertation explored the growth of the 1st century churches in the book of Acts and so I have personally spent a massive amount of time studying the Biblical purpose of the church, not only in the historical descriptions of Acts, but the explicit prescriptions in the epistles. As concisely as possible, the purpose of the church gathering is for the spiritual edifying and practical equipping of believers in Christ for the glory of God (Ephesians 3:14-21, etc.). The "Great Commission" was the instruction to go into the world to proclaim Christ, it was not a "great invitation" to the world to come into our assembly. The chronology is that a person trusts Christ by faith, and then they are added to the church. There are exceptions, such as in 1st Corinthians 14:23 or when the children of believers grow up in the church, but the general rule is that the church assembly is the place where believers are equipped for the work of the ministry. The basic design is that evangelism takes place outside of the church walls and edification takes place inside the church walls. Our goal is not to make the church gathering more comfortable for unbelievers, our job is to take the good news of the gospel to them. Once they have received Christ, the fellowship of the church will be the next step, beginning with public identification through immersion.
I'm not saying that we shouldn't care about the feelings of visitors to our services, but I am saying that we should not let the church growth philosophy eliminate practices which actually have their foundation in Scriptural principles. If it can be proven that a hand-shaking and greeting time is Biblical and beneficial to believers, it should be practiced, even if it is a little uncomfortable for visitors.
Second, a physical greeting among believers, is a Biblical mandate. Culturally, we have moved from the practice of an "holy kiss" to a handshake; the particulars of its usage are certainly open to various applications. However, on several occasions, the apostle Paul instructed believers to greet or salute one another with an holy kiss (this was the ancient practice of a loose hug or the gripping of the other's shoulders while touching cheeks). To the believers in Rome he commanded it (Romans 16:16); both of his epistles to the Corinthians hold such a command (1st Corinthians 16:20; 2nd Corinthians 13:12), as does the first epistle to the Thessalonian believers (1st Thessalonians 5:26). The apostle Peter also gave this instruction to the scattered Jewish believers to whom he was writing (1st Peter 5:14). The nature of this physical kiss (greeting) was described by Paul as being holy or sacred; it was called the kiss of charity or love by Peter. Intrinsically, it was spiritual.
Third, there is incalculable pastoral value to a physical greeting. When I grasp the hand of each of the people in our assembly, it is similar to the practice of the ancient shepherd that would touch the sheep with his rod as they passed into the fold (God used this illustration in Ezekiel 20:37; Jeremiah 33:13). We are a small church of 50-60 on a given Sunday, but I still make it a point to shake the hand of each person who is there during our services. I know if there is someone who is absent, I'm able to look each person in the eye and greet them individually, I can usually tell if someone's demeanor is joyful or discouraged, often someone will mention a prayer request to me – the personal benefits for me in our greeting time are varied. There was even a time when the refusal of someone to shake my hand indicated very clearly that there was approaching conflict which would need to be addressed.
Fourth, the benefit of the physical contact between believers is tangible. The same things that I mentioned as they related to the pastor are true between individuals. They recognize among themselves who is absent and who is present, they can sense the happiness or sadness in one another, they can smile and encourage one another with genuine eye contact. It is a time which either strengthens relationships, ministers grace, or reveals a fracture which needs to be healed (it is difficult to sincerely look someone in the eye and shake their hand if you are at odds with them). An intentional time of greeting produces interaction that may not happen if people only communed when they happened to bump into each other. Frankly, I'm convinced that it is an activity of a healthy church and preserves a healthy spirit of mutual love and care.
Fifth, a purposeful time of greeting is a strong deterrent to ethnic, social, class and gender divides. James specifically warned of claiming to posses faith in Christ and at the same time maintain a biased partiality towards others. The book of Ephesians reveals how God formed the church from two groups with an historically strong animus. Jews and Gentiles who received Christ were formed into one new and unified entity, the church. A strong church is a group of diverse people joined together in Christ. A scheduled corporate mingling and greeting makes partiality difficult to maintain.
Sixth, it helps merge and weld generations. I love to shake the hands of the little children. I'm encouraged to see the mature adults lean down and greet the young children, or to address the teens as a brother or sister in Christ. Again, an incidental occurrence does not produce this same camaraderie. Furthermore, without the scheduling of it, it probably wouldn't happen.
Finally, a few thoughts regarding the concern of seasonal sickness or the idea that it requires too much time. We have sanitizer available for those who feel they should use it. There are also people who will refrain from the actual physical contact if they are sick or fear getting sick. Regardless, they do not refrain from the fellowship, they will still face each other and greet each other in the same manner as if they were actually shaking hands. Regarding the additional time in the service, the value of the interaction is worth the time it adds to the meeting. There are other things I would eliminate (like the announcements) before I eliminated the greeting time.
The more I meditate on this practice, the more I see it's value. I encourage pastors and churches to give careful consideration to this activity, which I'm persuaded has a Biblical foundation and will be facilitating greater communion of the believers in the church.
Blest be the tie that binds/our hearts in Christian love!/The fellowship of kindred minds/is like to that above.
Before our Father's throne/we pour our ardent prayers;/our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,/our comforts and our cares.
We share our mutual woes,/our mutual burdens bear;/and often for each other flows/the sympathizing tear.
When we asunder part/it gives us inward pain;/but we shall still be joined in heart,/and hope to meet again.

BRUSSELS (Sputnik) - The recent attack on Syria conducted by three Western countries was a "serious excess" in a political sense despite its negligible military effect, а member of the European Parliament from Italy told Sputnik on Tuesday.
"The missile attack was more like a fireworks. But, politically, it was a serious excess, definitely not motivated," Mario Borghezio from the Lega party, who is a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the European Parliament, said, adding that there was no evidence that chemical weapons had been used.
The politician added that the Western nations had shown disrespect for international law by attacking the Middle Eastern nation.
"In fact, we do not see the necessity and, above all, the urgency of the bombing, especially in the absence of a UN mandate, against a regime that has contributed to the defeat of the Islamic State [terrorist group outlawed in Russia]," the politician added.

Lead In Soil May Be An Overlooked Threat To Kids' Health
By Eliza Barclay
Published April 5, 2013 at 12:41 PM CDT
Industrial cities like Detroit have high levels of lead in the aging housing stock and in soils. Researchers found that the amount of soil lead in Detroit that gets suspended in the air correlated with the levels of lead in kids' blood.
Lead poisoning in kids is hardly the problem it used to be, now that we've stopped using lead in house paints and gasoline. But the lead that lingers outside and in old homes is still dangerous if kids are exposed to it.
According to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 535,000 kids between 1 and 5 years old in the U.S. have at least 5 micrograms of lead per deciliter of blood, the amount that doctors say is enough to cause learning and behavior problems. The new analysis of 2007–2010 data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey appears this week in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
The numbers haven't improved much since the 1990s, and some researchers now say that may be because the CDC is focusing too much on education about one source of exposure: lead paint.
"There has been a lot of effort put into education and remediating houses with lead paint," Shawn McElmurry, a civil and environmental engineer at Wayne State University, tells Shots. "But it hasn't been successful at reducing lead exposure. We need a more holistic approach that also deals with contaminated soils."
While homeowners have learned over the years how to better manage old, peeling lead paint, the lead that was in gasoline was deposited on the ground and is still scattered throughout soils in many postindustrial U.S. cities. Kids still play in that dirt, and little kids may even eat it on occasion.
In a February paper published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, McElmurry and a team of economists and urban health specialists argue that the seasonal fluctuation of children's blood lead levels seen in industrial cities like Detroit indicate that kids are exposed to lead from contaminated soil that turns into airborne dust in the summertime.
Here's their reasoning: Earlier studies have shown that in many cities, including Boston, Chicago and Washington, D.C., there's more lead in the air in the summer — because of wind, humidity and other factors. The researchers also knew that the average amount of lead in kids' blood in Detroit is higher in the summer.
So when they plotted the lead in the air and blood lead levels together, they found a high correlation between the lead in the air and blood lead levels in children in Detroit.
Sammy Zahran, a demographer who studies environmental risks at Colorado State University and co-authored the study, says the findings demonstrate that contaminated soil in yards, playgrounds and elsewhere may be just as big a threat to children's health when it comes to lead.
If peeling paint were still the main problem, Zahran tells Shots, we would see higher blood lead levels in the winter, when kids are indoors more and could be exposed to more lead-based paint. Instead, he says, his research found that lead and soil in the air "were moving together, lockstep in time" at similar levels to the lead in kids' blood.
But McElmurry cautions that kids are still getting sick from lead paint. "Lead paint in the old housing stock is still there, and we know that lead can get into soil from car emissions and degraded paint, but right now the CDC's focus on paint is just too narrow."
So what's the answer to the soil problem? CDC spokesman Jay Dempsey tells Shots that parents need to "eliminate or safely control all sources of lead in a child's environment." But Zahran argues that the government may also need to play a more active role.
"If we're serious about minimizing risk, we may need to devote public dollars to cleaning up these areas that children frequent," says Zahran.

DreDDup definitely has made Fabryka forum alive once he jumped in with pictures and his own band free songs and albums download links as well as information about the Serbian industrial scene. Thinking of Serbia I recall wars but also beautiful landscapes. With no doubts there are more rock or industrial bands orientated, tho so far only Laibach or Borghesia have been noticed worldwide.
DreDDup's music is an excursion towards a beat industrial style with a lot of broken rhythms and changes. I have no idea if this chaos was made on purpose, but of what I'm sure is that their music is based mostly on heavy electronics. Eighteen songs it's a big number for one CD (or rather a download file which I was suggested to grab from the band). Some of the songs touch Godflesh tunes (Not From Here), others are beat and distorsions orientated with samples borrowed from classical music (probably a cello in Jungle Grey (feat. Shark)). Never Tell and Jinkeez both have punk vibe, WR may be liked by the fans of EBM music, Generation Devastation (metalic mix) touches industrial metal style as well as Reedemer and Defiant.
Amongts the tracks with mixed atmospheres I would pick up If There Is..., as the most interesting one with a variety of cool samples in the background and a woman back singing, whose voice actually reminds me Lisa Gerrard's from Dead Can Dance. No idea if Lisa was sampled from DCD albums or DreDDup grabbed a girl with a similar voice for the song purpose. The final effect sounds interesting. From the whole album mostly Inside Out sounds somewhat easier to listen to, reminds me Bile's ventures.

Longstowe is a civil parish and small rural village of nearly 200 residents in South Cambridgeshire, England,  west of Cambridge. The population was measured at 205 at the 2011 census. It is situated on the western side of the A1198 road (Ermine Street), running for about a mile along the B1046.

History
Seventeen people were counted at Longstowe for the 1086 Domesday Book. An area known as 'Town Green' around 1800 may have been the centre of the medieval village which had spread to the south by the middle of the 13th century.

Most of Longstowe's woodland had been cleared by the end of the 13th century, although  were held by the lord of the manor in the 16th century, in addition to furze and heath. The manor was purchased by Anthony Cage the elder in 1571, and he established 'a little park for deer and a warren for conies' around the new house. The acreage of the manor's woodland grew by the end of the 18th century. Until inclosure in 1799, agriculture was carried out in three open fields.

The Varsity Line passed through Longstowe parish to the south of the village although the Great North Road was not important to the village; the settlement reached it only in the late 19th century. The Old North Road railway station was built just over the boundary in Bourn parish and opened in 1862 and encouraged development in the east of the parish.

Longstowe once had three pubs although only the Red House now remains. The Three Horseshoes Inn, built in 1865 and closed in 2001, was renamed after Golden Miller, the Cheltenham Gold Cup and Grand National-winning racehorse which was trained by Basil Briscoe at Longstowe Hall.

In 1801, 175 people lived in the parish; the number rose to 296 in 1891 but dropped again to 218 by 1961.

Governance
Longstowe is represented on the South Cambridgeshire District Council by two councillors for the Gamlingay ward and on Cambridgeshire County Council by one councillor for the Gamlingay electoral division. It is in the parliamentary constituency of South Cambridgeshire in the House of Commons.

Geography
Longstowe is 12 miles (19 km) west of the county town of Cambridge, 11 miles (18 km) south-west of Huntingdon and 47 miles (75 km) north of London. The eastern boundary is marked by the A1198, formerly the Roman Ermine Street (or Old North Road), along which Arrington lies to the south and Caxton to the north. The parish borders Great Gransden in Huntingdonshire. The B1046 runs through Longstowe from Little Gransden in the west to Bourn in the east.

The parish has an area of 1,537 acres (622 hectares) and ranges in height from 50 metres above sea level in the east, to 79 metres in the south-west. The soil is heavy clay with a subsoil of strong clay. It was said in the 17th century that the village was 'unhappy for the want of good water... having neither springs nor brooks to supply that defect'.

Demography
At the time of the 2001 census, Longstowe had 193 residents living in 73 households. All described themselves as White; 73.6% were Christian and 26.4% did not follow a religion or did not state one.

Landmarks
Longstowe Hall is an ancient mansion purchased in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I by the Cage family, who rebuilt it; it was acquired by William Arthur Briscoe in 1906. It stands in a park of about 175 acres (70 hectares) and is now used as a venue for weddings. A lych gate near the church lists the names of the Longstowe men who served in World War I; 'RIP' is inscribed next to the names of those who died.

Religious sites
The parish church is dedicated to St Mary the Virgin and is set back from the road. The current brick building was built in 1863–1864 on the site of the original church which blew down in 1719. The church comprises a chancel, nave, north chapel, south porch and a low embattled western tower containing one bell.

The west window was erected by Mrs. Rushton in memory of her three brothers; she presented a peal of six tubular bells in 1898; after her death two others were added in 1903 as a memorial to her. The small chapel on the north side was built by Captain Sidney Stanley; the stained glass east window is a memorial to John Sharp of Manchester and his wife, Dorothea, and was presented by their children in 1864. In 1904 a memorial window was erected to Mrs. Sharp. The oak lych gate was erected in 1896 by the widow of the Rev. James Rushton M.A., who was rector at Longstowe between 1852 and 1895. A rood was erected in 1920 as a memorial to Longstowe men who were killed in World War I.

Recreation
The village supports a successful cricket club with both A and B teams competing in the Cambridgeshire leagues.

Creating learning environments in public spaces.
There is a 6 - 8 minute gap between every train that enters the underground metro station at Cubbon Park, Bangalore. How do we turn the wait into an opportunity to learn and share?
The 8-minute project is trying to activate the wait time between two trains. It is imitating the form of mini workshops by creating learning environments for the people taking the metro day in and day out. This intervention is about pedagogy in public spaces. And how general public can be offered creative thinking by using the metro-transit as a classroom, making the process of learning accessible and informal to all in a shared site such as the Cubbon Park Metro Station.
We are calling for entries for this project. Shoot a silent video and share it with us - from cooking to making a zine to everyday hacks and more and watch others learn from you in the metro station. We expect silent videos with text if necessary. (no sound). It can range from a minute long to 8 minute max.
and send it to mail@natashasharma.co in with your contact details.
Why is it called the The Wait-Time project?
As the project is trying to teen-age with the commuters during the wait between the trains at the metro. The name marks this interaction and is specific to site and time.
What is the project trying to say?
How will the project realise itself on site?
Through projections on the platform or other pause areas during the wait time between two trains.
Does it have to teach something?
The intent of the project is for the commuters with different socio - economic background to chance upon works that is informative/ can teach something/ can make them aware of something / can show them creative ways of doing something. There is space for humour and quirk, but its always nice to be sensitive with what you want to display in a public space.
Does it have to be a video that is shot?
Not necessarily, it can also be a slide show, a set of images put together, an animation, stop motion, gifs. Something that is mainly directed visually.
No, in order to not hinder with the announcements at the station the videos are intended to be silent. Text, graphic or actions can help direct the video.
Does the video/ images/ slide show have to be of any particular dimension?
10 x 12ft area on the platform.
It can be from 30 seconds to 4 minutes long.
(even more if you like) All the content will be projected in continuous loop in the gap time between the two trains.
Of course, your name/ your company's name will be projected and mentioned under the title of your video. I will do the formatting.
It's a continuous entry. We select and play it at every next run on site.
I don't live in Bangalore city, but I really want to see how people interact with the projections.
I will definitely document it for you and send it to you for the amazing contribution you've made to the project.

* Goodies Thoughts - Web Site Functionality.
Goodies Thoughts - Web Site Functionality.
I continue, this week, with my overview of the early stages of a web site's development with a few thoughts about functionality. In case you've missed the last few newsletters you can find the in the Goodies To Go archive at http://www.htmlgoodies.com/letters -- I started this little series in January of this year (2003) with a look at The Importance of Design.
Functionality seems frequently to bring to mind interaction between the site and the site visitor. While this may be a part of the topic, and is something I'll talk about in a minute, it's not the start of it. To determine the most important aspect of a site's functionality requirement, ask the question "what is this site's purpose?" The purpose describes the function the site must fulfill. For example, a site might be to describe a company and its products. It could be to sell some tickets or perhaps it's to show off Johnny's pictures. In each case, the site's purpose describes the function it must perform. Its quality of functionality is determined by how well it performs that function.
I labor the point a little because it is all too easy to be distracted by an aspect of "functionality" to the extent where the primary purpose is obscured. In the above examples, for instance, the ticket sales site might involve some validation, some interaction, some storage and recollection of orders, etc. In trying to accomplish all these things it is easy to forget that what you really have to do is sell tickets. Focus on ensuring that numbers are entered where numbers are required, dates are valid and dollar amounts are calculated and forget to mention the name of the performance for which you are selling the tickets and the site's functionality is about zero, no matter how technically wonderful it might be!
The first golden rule of function is "be quick and to the point." Don't subject your visitors to flash and pizzazz on the way to your grommet sales page. Take them there right away and ask them "A bag of a dozen, or a box of one gross?" Fewer clicks equals much better. Also is this category is the reminder to optimize graphics before including them in a page. If your JPG looks more or less the same compressed to 10K bytes as it does compressed only to 15K, use the higher compression (the smaller file) -- smaller files load quicker. Quicker equals much better.
The second golden rule is "think like your visitor, not like yourself." If you went on a trip to Chicago, London and Sydney and now are putting the photos onto a gallery site, don't label them "First", "Second" and "Third" because that's the order in which you visited the cities. You know that, but your visitor will have a much easier time understanding "Chicago", London" and "Sydney"!
The third golden rule is "assist, don't constrain." If they have typed "1.6" in your quantity field, don't say "Invalid Quantity". Say something like "Please enter only whole numbers in Quantity." Remember also, courtesy rocks! My example here is so much better than "Enter only whole numbers in Quantity." As your site visitors, they are guests in your home. Treat them as such! A little humor can sometimes help too. Used sparingly, and always with careful taste, it can help your visitor to relax, feel comfortable and have a better overall experience of your site. After the above error message (the one that includes "Please"!) we could add "By the way, the system prefers larger numbers!" Be careful though, not to trivialize what you are trying to do.
On the technical side, the real secret to interactive functionality, or any type of technical "specialty", is to keep it simple. Simpler equal much better! As you look at adding some new function to your page, ask yourself if it really adds to the site's ability to fulfill its purpose. If it sort of does, sort of doesn't, ask yourself if the site might actually be a little better off without it. That's often the case. We see something new and neat, and want to incorporate it into the site, but on reflection, we see that the site is just fine without it. Remember, simpler equals much better.
Next week, I'll be closing this series with a discussion about maintainability.
A. I notice that you are using internal styles on your pages (the styles between the <style> tags in the <head> of your file). If you use an external style sheet, and reference it in the head instead (by using the <link> method) then that should reduce the reloading, since the external style sheet will be downloaded into the cache.
actually have style support turned off.
the page such that the style supporters will not be aware of nor be distracted by the message. The non supporting viewers are directed to an appropriate link which only they can see.
Q. I am trying to find a way to make it so that a drop down menu can be displayed on all my web pages. I wish to have the main code at one page so that if I make a change on the main page it will show on all the other pages containing the drop down menu. Please refer to my website for an exampleof the drop down menu I am refering too!
A. If you are referring to your "Store Categories" menu, you can use a js file.
3. Cut and paste your complete form code, including the form tags, into the space between the double quotation marks - " in item 2.
5. Remove all carriage returns from the js file so that if you disable word wrapping, you will see one long line of code.
You can insert this script into any page where you want the menu to appear.
To make changes, you need only edit the js file.
It did a great job of putting the list into three bulleted columns, but for some reason, in doing so, the font size shrunk. The rest of the page is font size="3". I tried changing the height, putting a font size command in the TD brackets, and a few other places, but I just can't seem to get it to work. I searched the HTML Goodies site but couldn't find an answer. How do I change the look of the writing within a table?
A. You should be using a style sheet to control your font sizes. This way you can designate the size once, in the style sheet and everything on the page will stay consistant.
Now take a look at all of your lists.
Q. How do I allow somebody to download a file from my web site?

"Unix is different for SSI than ASP that you pointed him to for the tutorial and it also depends on if he is trying to call up that info in a cgi or php scripting. Since Unix is the platform for 80% of the web pages out there, I thought the reader should have this information as well.

Brewer boys advance to A North finals with win over Skowhegan

Two tightly contested regular-season games between Brewer and Skowhegan seemingly set the stage for a third clash of the titans when the teams met again during Wednesday night's Class A North boys basketball semifinals at the Augusta Civic Center.
Only one titan emerged, as second-ranked Brewer rolled to a 58-30 victory over the third-seeded River Hawks to advance to Friday night's regional final against top-ranked Nokomis of Newport.
To be honest, I didn't really expect this kind of a game," Brewer junior forward Brady Saunders said. "I knew if we stuck to our game plan we'd be all right but I didn't expect to win by that much."
These teams split their two regular-season encounters, but Brewer controlled the backboards against the taller River Hawks in their tournament matchup and forced 24 Skowhegan turnovers while improving their record to 18-2.
"A big part that gave us an edge was our defense and our intensity," Brewer senior point guard Colby Smith said. "The first two times we played they were able to get what they wanted against us inside the paint, but this time we really limited them to what they could do on offense."
2022 Class A North boys basketball bracket
Saunders paced Brewer's offense with 19 points on 9-of-13 shooting from the field, while Smith added 11 points, junior forward Brock Flagg chipped in 10 points and six rebounds, Aaron Newcomb scored eight points and Ryder Goodwin finished with six.
Kyle LePage, one of three Skowhegan starters standing either 6-foot-5 or 6-foot 6, had 10 points but frontcourt teammates Adam Savage and Collin LePage were limited to four points apiece and the River Hawks collectively managed just 11 points after intermission.
Some of Brewer's defensive success stemmed from the perimeter, where Saunders and Smith used their quickness and long arms to challenge the Skowhegan guards before they could work the ball inside.
"They're a great team, they have a lot of good plays and that's their specialty, so we tried to speed them up in this game and we were able to get some turnovers from that and it led to transition and a lot of points," Smith said.
Saunders had 10 points and three steals in the first half as Brewer built a 31-19 lead.
Skowhegan had some early success on the offensive boards, with both Kyle and Collin LePage each cashing in as the River Hawks moved out to an early 6-2 lead.
"I don't think coach Goodwin was happy with that," Flagg said.
Brewer then took a 10-8 lead with eight unanswered points, two apiece by Flagg, Smith, Goodwin and Saunders, and maintained a 14-10 edge at the end of the opening quarter.
Saunders converted a steal into a layup to open the second quarter and fed Flagg for a fast-break layup to extend the Witches' lead to 18-10.
Brewer then followed the game's lone first-half 3-pointer by Skowhegan's Payson Washburn with a three-point play inside by Aaron Newcomb and a mid-range jumper by Saunders to extend their lead to 23-13.
The Witches later took their biggest lead of the half when back-to-back offensive rebounds led to Flagg making two free throws and a follow-up shot.
Flagg finished the half with eight points and four rebounds for Brewer, while Smith had six points and three assists.
Skowhegan stayed within 36-23 midway through the third quarter before Brewer scored 11 straight points to put the game away.
The run began with a steal and free throw by Smith, then Saunders scored on a layup and a jumper from the top of the key to make it 43-23.
Flagg fed Cameron Hughes for a layup and Smith capped off the run with a layup on a goaltending call against the River Hawks to make it 47-23 with less than two minutes left in the third period.

Oscar Shines Through
Press release from the Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust
We are absolutely delighted to be able to share this news with you today.
At the end of last year, Worcestershire and the West Midlands came together with the Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust to fundraise over half a million pounds to fund potentially lifesaving treatment for Oscar.
Sadly, Oscar had already exhausted treatment options in the UK and the treatments available were not going to be curative. It was then that his parents, Olivia Saxelby and Jaime Lee started looking for other options.
Oscar is only the second child in the world to receive this groundbreaking personalised treatment for T cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Up until now, it has only been available for children with B-cell ALL.
Oscars heart-warming Hand In Hand for Oscar campaign has showed people at their best, all working together. Today, 5 months on from receiving his Car-T cell treatment, Oscar is STILL CANCER FREE!
This incredible news is amazing, not just for Oscar, but potentially for other children in a similar position in the future. A lot more research needs to be done in this area and it is unlikely to be a routinely used treatment until a lot more testing is done, but Oscar's journey proves that it has potential.
Jen Kelly from the Grace Kelly Childhood Cancer Trust said:
"The team at the Grace Kelly Trust are so proud to have been able to have played a key part in the campaign of Oscar Saxelby Lee in fundraising for life saving treatment in Singapore. We worked tirelessly alongside a great team to make this possible and we are absolutely delighted when Oscar's mother contacted us with this news today. It is truly heart-warming."
Thank you also to everyone behind the Hand In Hand for Oscar campaign, the amazing team at Pitmaston Primary School, the Worcester News for their coverage and everyone that donated or fundraised for Oscar.
thank you.jpg

Star Wars Day: The Best 'Star Wars' Movie is the One Nobody Talks About — Watch
Most stalwart "Star Wars" fans depend on "The Domain Strikes Back" as the best passage in the establishment, and for years and years, this was a precise discernment. The arrival of George Lucas' prequels just further improved appreciation for the main spin-off in the series, which is wealthy in creative mind and interest. However, while the "Star Wars" universe keeps on extending in scope, nothing has nailed the potential outcomes of this science fiction/dream journey better compared to the enlivened 2003 Star Wars Clone Wars Yellow Ligthtsaber coordinated by Genndy Tartakovsky, but no one discussions about it.
That is halfway on the grounds that the Clone Wars story has overhauled and ventured into another series that sent off in 2008, which additionally recounts the narrative of the sensational confrontation between fighting groups that in the middle of between the occasions of episodes II and III. All but at the same time this is on the grounds that Tartakovsy's "Clone Wars" isn't in many cases seen as a film: It circulated as a progression of small scale episodes on Animation Organization going from three to 12 minutes; saw by and large, nonetheless, these portions add up to a strained, engrossing 130-minute activity experience, one that utilizes the energized medium to free the potential outcomes of the Star Wars establishment by perceiving its assets on the double. In a simply world, each Star Wars Day would honor it.
That's what the incongruity is "Clone Wars Red lightsaber happens inside the limits of Lucas' new increments to the storyline, all of which transformed a creative world into the messy adventure of a whiny youngster, and covered the energy of the universe in tasteless strategic procedures once in a while raised by a very much arranged fight. In "Clone Wars," nonetheless, youthful Obi-Wan Kenobi is a telling figure driving a considering going after against the Alliance of Free Frameworks as the Jedi's numbers have begun to fade. Anakin Skywalker is a promising devotee with the possibility to rescue the striving Jedi powers, even as his more obscure propensities have begun to surface. Yoda, Mace Windu and General Grevious all travel every which way.
In any case, for the most part, Tartakovsky utilizes these characters and circumstances to make a short of breath activity scene in which Jedi powers and creative weaponry yield an outwardly inebriating submersion into the "Star Wars" recipe reduced to its actual substance. From the initial shot of an outlined Yoda barreling into fight on a protective layer clad kybuck, Tartakovsky clarifies that his interpretation of "Star Wars" will be splendidly operatic, sensitive to the notorious idea of the material and able to push it to expressionistic limits. The adventure never eases up, however it generally comes furnished with drawing in approaches that outline the scene in striking terms and tie it into a mind boggling world.
Take, for example, the surprising six-and-a-half moment grouping in which Mace Windu independently obliterates a multitude of droids with just a lightsaber and the powers of his brain. Indeed, even as Tartakovsky carries us into the activity, moving between occupied pictures of robots and spacemen tumbling through the sand as Mace Windu jumps and slides around them, he approaches the scene around the viewpoint of a young man watching the bedlam from on a slope. The second finishes with the kid giving the tired Jedi a beverage of water, in a delicate trade that proposes a similarity to mankind hiding underneath the steady disorder. It's perhaps of the most sincerely thunderous second in north of 40 years of "Star Wars," and it happens without a solitary line of discourse.
It's additionally exceptionally suggestive of "Samurai Jack," the trendy mix of eastern and western activity customs that Tartakovsky had recently wrapped up on Animation Organization when "Clone Wars" started its run. Presently, Tartakovsky is completing the series on Toonami with a hotly anticipated miniseries that proceeds with his magnificent vision of activity based narrating. Meanwhile, "Star Wars" itself has gotten back in the saddle with films all the more definitively designed to satisfy crowds anxious to see a similar equation repeated with stunning new impacts. Yet, Tartakovsky accomplished an option that could be preferable over that: His "Clone Wars" gave watchers something they never expected, something that understood the capability of "Star Battles" beyond anything they could ever imagine, and it should be perceived thusly.
