The harsh reality of sexual violence must be highlighted not hidden
Naomi Dickson
The distressing details of domestic and sexual abuse are not ones we wish to dwell on. But ignoring this harsh reality would fail those who are suffering without a voice. Turning a blind eye gives space for this despicable behaviour to flourish.
Just as news of teenage murders and vicious knife attacks make us uncomfortable, this issue needs to be highlighted, not hidden.
Every day, my team lives through the disturbing details of abuse retold by women who finally raise their voice to ask for help and support. Indeed, it's unpleasant. It's stomach-churning. It takes place every minute of every day in homes in all communities.
Throughout our lifetimes, one in four women will be affected by domestic abuse. One in five will be survivors of sexual violence. Jewish women are no different.
And last weekend we saw newspapers full of comment about the relationship we have with our neighbours. Jewish Women's Aid along with other domestic abuse charities endorsed a joint statement explaining: "It's not for us to judge what happens in anyone's relationship, but it is for us all to take action if we are concerned about someone's safety. "Don't walk on by if you are worried. Ask if they are ok. Tell someone. Call the police."
Earlier this month (June), we launched the Dina Service – a new sexual violence support programme for Jewish women and girls, aged over 16, across the UK.
Thanks to funding from Comic Relief and financial support from the community, we're planning to provide the service for at least two years. It includes free counselling, a dedicated helpline, and one-to-one independent sexual violence advocacy in North London.
This week we received a complaint from a mother. She was unhappy about the way a survivor had shared her harrowing story in the Jewish News. She claimed the content was "highly sexually explicit" and accused us of using an "advert" in a family newspaper to grab attention. "Being so vulgar and descriptive is simply not necessary in this forum", she wrote.
I'd argue a newspaper is exactly the forum to explore and challenge attitudes towards what is often perceived a taboo issue. Too many women and children have suffered in silence for far too long. The research bears this out - Jewish women wait on average 11.5 years before seeking help.
We've also seen an increase in women reporting sexual violence. Just in the last three weeks, the number of people contacting our services has doubled. It's not necessarily the result of more women being at risk of abuse but that perhaps more people are aware and now confident to come forward.
The survivor's story was not an advert, as the mother claimed. It's unfortunately real-life. It happened to another mother in our community and she courageously shared her suffering with us all to highlight the devastating and degrading nature of domestic abuse and sexual violence.
The Jewish News put a clear warning at the top of the story: "Editor's note: The following article contains discussion of domestic and sexual violence that some readers may find upsetting"
To dilute the content of the survivor's story is a betrayal of what she has experienced. We cannot brush challenging issues under the proverbial carpet. To do so, would not only be a flagrant injustice to all those victims who have suffered, but also enable the perpetrators to continue with impunity.

The -SkipErrors parameter of the Distribution Agent, which allows you to skip errors of a certain type. The transaction with the error is not committed, but subsequent transactions are.
The sp_setsubscriptionxactseqno stored procedure, which allows you to skip one or more transactions that cause errors. This option is not available for non-SQL Server Subscribers.
Under typical replication processing, you should not experience any errors that need to be skipped. Errors should be skipped with caution and with the understanding of what the error condition is, why it is occurring, and why the error or specific transaction needs to be skipped rather than resolved. If transactions committed at the Publisher are skipped at the Subscriber, the two nodes will not be completely synchronized, which can lead to additional errors.
By default, triggers execute with the XACT_ABORT setting ON. If a statement within a trigger causes an error while the Distribution Agent is applying changes at the Subscriber, the entire batch of changes will fail, rather than the individual statement. In transactional replication, you can use the -SkipErrors parameter of the Distribution Agent to skip statements that cause errors. If -SkipErrors is used with XACT_ABORT ON, the entire batch of changes is skipped if a statement causes an error. Unless you require XACT_ABORT to be set to ON in triggers, we recommend that you set it to OFF if you are using the -SkipErrors parameter. To set the option off, specify SET XACT_ABORT OFF in the trigger definition. For more information about XACT_ABORT, see SET XACT_ABORT (Transact-SQL).
Execute sp_helpsubscriptionerrors at the Distributor after the Distribution Agent stops. This stored procedure returns the column xact_seqno, which contains the log sequence number (LSN) for each failed transaction.
Execute sp_setsubscriptionxactseqno, specifying a value for the parameter **@xact_seqno**. If you want to skip all failed transactions, specify the largest LSN returned by sp_helpsubscriptionerrors.
For more information, see sp_setsubscriptionxactseqno (Transact-SQL) and sp_helpsubscriptionerrors (Transact-SQL).


Transitional Kindergartner Jasmin Varela on left writes her name on a seed pot with some help from PTA member Catlan Brinsley. Kids from William McKinley Elementary school in Burbank work on creating a large teaching garden. This was sponsored by the American Heart Association.
At McKinley Elementary School on Friday, children poured soil into new garden beds as they prepared to plant their first winter garden of broccoli, onions, sweet and bitter lettuce, cauliflower, herbs, peas and carrots.
The garden beds, soil and tools such as gloves, shovels and rakes were all awarded to McKinley after parent Jamee Tingley wrote a grant to the American Heart Assn. last year.
The organization gave the school the equipment and seeds for the garden with the promise that students will cultivate fruits and vegetables for at least the next five years, said fellow parent Shari Wendt, who helped oversee children pour soil and plant seeds with other PTA members.
"We're going to teach kids to love kale," she said.
McKinley's PTA is still seeking donations for a chain-link fence to protect the garden's future harvest.
By March, the school plans to plant its summer vegetables, anticipating that the summer garden and its tomatoes will be ripe by the time school resumes in August.
The school's fifth-grade science academy will also use the garden to study photosynthesis, and by January, McKinley will establish a gardening club.


Local group Base have been crowned winners of Leicester's Best Dance Crew 2012 – the biggest annual urban dance competition in the region! With eight members, aged 17-24, the Studio 79 crew won the judges over in a high energy routine. Second place went to TXS, also of Studio 79. Third place was awarded to Influence, of Addict Studios.
Ten dance crews performed at Curve Theatre on Sunday 12 February 2012, in the sold-out event run by 2Funky Arts. Leicester and Leicestershire's most talented crews battled it out to win the trophy, as well as a stonking £1000 prize. Dancers performed for a panel of professional judges and were scored on a range of categories, including synchronicity, musicality and originality. The event also featured a jaw-dropping performance from Gingerbread Man, who has previously appeared on Got To Dance (Sky One).
Addict - last year's winners - have gone onto perform as part of high profile dance shows such as Street Dance (Channel 4), Britain's Got Talent (ITV) and Got to Dance (Sky1).

Who is Olive Branch?
Olive Branch Ministry is a faith-based harm reduction outreach organization, based in the Foothills of NC and was founded in 2009 by Michelle Mathis and Karen Lowe.
Olive Branch partners with local human service organizations, faith communities, hospitals, mental and public health agencies, and private corporations and citizens to work with those in need of harm reduction services.
Our desire is to extend hope and extend life through non-judgmental interactions with those we are called to serve.
What is Harm Reduction?
The following information is cited from Harm Reduction Coalition:
Harm reduction is a set of practical strategies and ideas aimed at reducing negative consequences associated with drug use. Harm Reduction is also a movement for social justice built on a belief in, and respect for, the rights of people who use drugs.
Harm reduction incorporates a spectrum of strategies from safer use, to managed use to abstinence to meet drug users "where they're at," addressing conditions of use along with the use itself. Because harm reduction demands that interventions and policies designed to serve drug users reflect specific individual and community needs, there is no universal definition of or formula for implementing harm reduction.
However, HRC considers the following principles central to harm reduction practice:
Accepts, for better and or worse, that licit and illicit drug use is part of our world and chooses to work to minimize its harmful effects rather than simply ignore or condemn them.
Understands drug use as a complex, multi-faceted phenomenon that encompasses a continuum of behaviors from severe abuse to total abstinence, and acknowledges that some ways of using drugs are clearly safer than others.
Establishes quality of individual and community life and well-being–not necessarily cessation of all drug use–as the criteria for successful interventions and policies.
Calls for the non-judgmental, non-coercive provision of services and resources to people who use drugs and the communities in which they live in order to assist them in reducing attendant harm.
Ensures that drug users and those with a history of drug use routinely have a real voice in the creation of programs and policies designed to serve them.
Affirms drugs users themselves as the primary agents of reducing the harms of their drug use, and seeks to empower users to share information and support each other in strategies which meet their actual conditions of use.
Recognizes that the realities of poverty, class, racism, social isolation, past trauma, sex-based discrimination and other social inequalities affect both people's vulnerability to and capacity for effectively dealing with drug-related harm.
Does not attempt to minimize or ignore the real and tragic harm and danger associated with licit and illicit drug use.
Just recently, the OORT mailed some of the purple index cards with encouraging letters to the folks who have been resuscitated by Narcan/Naloxone in our community.
Your support and contributions will enable us to extend hope and extend life. Your generous donation will fund our mission.

KEMP'S NEW STRENGTH
DREW KEMP admits that the constant support from Great Britain has helped him deal with the mental side of speedway.
The Ipswich prospect has shown flashes of brilliance for his country after one-to-one advice from former World Champion Jason Crump and psychologist Jeremy Holt.
Kemp, 19, shows so much dedication for the national team and has benefited greatly from the GB Academy in recent years..
He revealed: "The mental side of speedway is very much a big aspect of my career. I've struggled psychologically for the last few years. Essentially struggling to accept losing.
"That has affected me in the past. Last year at Ipswich when I had a tough time, having someone in the pits with me like Jason (Crump) really did help.
"I was also lucky to get his one-to-one advice at the Great Britain Academy days with ATPI, that really has made a huge difference to me.
"Jason has also come to my workshop and to have someone of his ability and experience as part of the GB set-up is amazing."
Kemp had an indifferent 2021 campaign, hampered by having to switch clubs during the season. But he produced a couple of dazzling displays for GB including 15 points in the European Under-19 Pairs in Gdansk, Poland.
He added: "When I ride for Great Britain I feel like there is less pressure. I seem to put less pressure on myself.
"I don't know whether it's because when I race on the continent for GB, it's on tracks that I seem to like.
"In Gdańsk in the European Under-19s Pairs I think I won every race bar one. I can't put my finger on it but I feel more relaxed racing internationally.
"It's not the best thing, but it does show that I have those performances in me.
"But I need to be consistent on all tracks. That's why I've chosen Poole and Wolves this season, that's the ideal learning curve for me."

JASON ALDEAN WRAPS 2018 HIGH NOON NEON TOUR WITH "CONCERT FOR THE CURE" MARKING OVER $4.1 MILLION RAISED IN SUPPORT OF THE FIGHT AGAINST BREAST CANCER
"Country's Biggest Entertainer" (Rolling Stone) Ends 2018 Touring Season with More Than 20 Sell-Outs Including Braves' SunTrust Park, New York City's Madison Square Garden and Nashville's Bridgestone Arena
NASHVILLE, TN – Oct. 5, 2018 – After wrapping his 2018 HIGH NOON NEON TOUR this past weekend, current three-time CMA nominee Jason Aldean celebrated his annual "Concert For The Cure" at Jason Aldean's Kitchen + Rooftop Bar in Nashville consummating more than $4.1 million for Susan G. Komen chapters across the country. Last night, the avid supporter towards the fight against breast cancer put the spotlight on Susan G. Komen Central Tennessee by presenting $459,509, which was raised by a portion of ticket sales from his 2018 tour. Survivors and fans alike were treated to an intimate performance by Aldean with personal stories about his history and commitment to helping beat the disease.
"All year long on the road, we hear stories from fans about how they've been affected by breast cancer," said Aldean. "It's crazy how just about everyone is close to someone who is or has fought this horrible disease. Thank you to the fans, Omaze and the TC Restaurant Group for their support last night and we're going to keep doing our part in hopes that we never have to lose someone to breast cancer again."
Closing out this year's headlining run, the three-time and reigning ACM "Entertainer of the Year" made sure he "brought a party with him" (Des Moines Register) to each tour stop including the 20 sold-out shows such as Atlanta's new SunTrust Park, New York City's Madison Square Garden and Nashville's Bridgestone Arena. Ushering in seas of fans with featured specials guests Luke Combs and Lauren Alaina, "Country's biggest entertainer" (Rolling Stone) demonstrated why he is a "musically muscular, big-tent entertainer" (The Atlantic).
Aldean is only the second Country act in history to score four consecutive chart-toppers on the all-genre Billboard 200 albums chart with his current GOLD certified album REARVIEW TOWN, which follows six previous LPs that achieved PLATINUM certification or better. Following his 21st career No. One and multi-week chart topper "Drowns the Whiskey" featuring Miranda Lambert, Aldean recently released his follow-up single to Country radio "Girl Like You," serving as the third release from his record-breaking eighth studio album. He continues the momentum behind the multi-week chart topper and RIAA's only PLATINUM Country song released in 2018, "You Make It Easy," as he blends together sensual rhythms with powerful vocals.

'Healthy towns' will be part-designed by the NHS
Lucy Trevallion
Ten new 'healthy towns' will be designed to help reduce childhood obesity, provide dementia-friendly environments, reduce falls, and promote exercise and healthy eating
Ten new 'healthy towns' will be designed to help reduce childhood obesity, provide dementia-friendly environments, reduce falls, and promote exercise and healthy eating, Simon Stevens, chief executive of NHS England announced.
Speaking at The King's Fund in London, Stevens described the new towns as "some kind of idealised version of Amsterdam" to deal with three core problems: the health gap, care gap and money gap.
He recognised that this country desperately needs more affordable housing and it is "a huge missed opportunity if NHS is not involved in designing health into the built environment from the start" as "all too often the NHS has come too late to the party".
The towns, stretching from Darlington to Devon, will include fast-food-free areas near schools, green spaces, dementia-friendly streets, and action to reduce falls of older people due to the built environment, and "tackle these things at source" he said.
Stevens will try to "design out the obesogenic environment for our kids, and design in support for independent living for older people and enable new ways of technology-enabled primary and community care right from the get-go."
"We want children to have places where they want to play with friends and can safely walk or cycle to school – rather than just exercising their fingers on video games. We want to see neighbourhoods and adaptable home designs that make it easier for older people to continue to live independently wherever possible. And we want new ways of providing new types of digitally enabled local health services that share physical infrastructure and staff with schools and community groups."
The towns will be designed in collaboration with expert clinicians, designers and technology experts in order to help create environments that promote healthy lifestyles.

Sima Electronics was founded in 1980, born of a passion to offer consumers an alternative to mass market audio products. Sima products (as they were then called) quickly gained a reputation for outstanding value for money, and were consequently highly regarded by afficionados and enthusiasts. Although the earliest products were aimed strictly at professionals, the audiophile community rapidly took note of the sonic excellence, and most models of the 1980s were used in home environments. The passion for music, company philosophy and the engineering excellence evident from the company's early years paved the way for success.
The 1990's saw the introduction of the Celeste series of products, and the company was reorganized into Simaudio Ltd. Our original "Renaissance" circuitry for amplification was first implemented at this time. These famous oval-faced products became instantly recognizable for both their elegant appearance and transparent sonic signature. Stereophile Magazine gave the W-4070 Power Amplifier a benchmark review for its sub-$1,500 price, calling it "a remarkable achievement at any price" and awarded it a position in their coveted "Recommended Components".
After years of research, Simaudio launched its reference-grade series of audio products, aptly named the MOON Series. Utilizing many new in-house developed technologies and building on the immensely successful Celeste products, the MOON series was considered by many to be the pinnacle of what is achievable when innovation meets technological creativity.
With the rapidly increasing popularity of high-performance Home-Theater systems, Simaudio introduced the MOON Titan multi-channel amplifier, the first amplifier in our MOON A/V Series. Bringing years of award winning amplifier design "know-how" to the table, our design team created one of the very first high powered multi-channel amplifiers with a thermally interconnected chassis to ensure exceptional sonic performance across all channels at all times. The Titan has earned a universal reputation as the finest amplifier of its kind and can be found in countless reference grade multi-channel systems worldwide.
To celebrate our 25th anniversary in 2004, we recognized the success of the Nova and Eclipse Disc Players, P-5 preamplifier, W-5 power amplifier and i-5 integrated. To that end, we ran a special production of 250 special units of each model, and became the MOON Limited Edition series. Each model featured circuit enhancements to raise the performance bar in addition to special cosmetics. Owning one is much like owning a unique piece of history.
We introduced the MOON Evolution series as the new flagship range. Years of research and know-how went into cultivating these extraodinary products. Listening to feedback from consumers, dealers, and countless listening iterations and engineering time went into the design and execution of the MOON Evolution products. A product line that embodies life-like sonic performance, luxurious styling, unique flexibility and intuitive ease-of-use; A combination unprecedented in the world of high-end audio.
Addressing the other end of the price scale, a new series of MOON components became a reality. The "1" series offers an unprecedented level of performance at a cost that was previously unattainable in the world of high-performance audio. This significant milestone is due largely as a result of our many years of successful R&D, allowing us to offer what is commonly referred to as "trickle-down technology", albeit augmented by our manufacturing know-how in Boucherville, Quebec.
We've brought the MOON Evolution series to the next level with the introduction of multi-channel components. The level of performance offered here, simply put, raises the bar to a previously unimaginable level and redefines what is commonly referred to as the State-of-the-Art. The MC-8 Multi-Channel Power Amplifier is considered by many to simply be the finest home theater amplifier ever created. It picked up where the Titan left off…and greatly surpassed it.
We began 2010 by celebrating our 30th anniversary. To mark this significant milestone we produced a limited edition run of 30 units of each of the MOON 600i Integrated Amplifier and MOON 750D CD Transport/DAC. These 30th Anniversary models featured a high gloss Ferrari red chassis, polished chrome faceplates, legs and accents. The 750D was the very first true 32-bit asynchronous DAC available in the consumer marketplace and was met with very high global acclaim. In addition, each of these 30 highly coveted pieces were sold with a 30-year warranty.
The first MOON Network Streamer is introduced. Poised and ready for the future, the technology is given the name MiND ( for MOON intelligent Network Device). MiND technology offers, beyond streaming that is also available from others, a level of control and performance unmatched by others.
Company management and ownership is passed on to the next generation: Simaudio is now owned by a small group of long-time employees who have shaped the image and reputation of the MOON brand.
With an unchanged philosophy, a new energetic leadership team and a vision, MOON by Simaudio will continue to exemplify exceptional customer service, innovation, and engineering excellence.

House Speaker Tillis defends pay raises
Tillis says his critics do not understand a business model and that he ramped up staffing as the session continued. He hired key staffers on probationary terms, paying them less at first.
"It's a business concept called a probationary period, where you bring somebody in at 75 percent of what their role typically pays until they prove that they're actually going to be in that permanent position," he explained.
Seven staffers received raises ranging from $5,000 to $35,000.
"If he thought they were not going to be satisfactory employees, then why would he hire them in the first place?" critic Doug Jackson asked.
Jackson started a website, Telltillis.com, as a petition.
"What we want is for him to give this raise money, the money that he wound up spending on raises, we want him to give that back to the taxpayers," Jackson added.
Not all critics go that far, but the criticism isn't just from the left.
"Politically, it just doesn't work, it was a misstep," said Mitch Kokai, John Locke Foundation.
Kokai says if nothing else, giving hefty raises to people already making six figures or close to it was a tone deaf decision.
"In some respects, in politics, perception is reality, and the perception was, ok, state agencies, you can take all these cuts but my people, they're going to be living high on the hog," he added.
However, Tillis says even after the raises, his staff still makes less than their counterparts in the state and on the governor's staff. When asked if he thought the raises or their timing was tone deaf, he replied, "The only regret is that I didn't convince the governor and the other branches to do the same thing."
Tillis says he will still have spent 15 less on staff than his predecessor and the end of the year.
"I'm perfectly content with the numbers," he said. "I'm very proud of my financial performance. I believe the speaker's office is going to have the best performance in terms of cost for work done than you've seen in modern times here ,and we'll see this at the end of 2011 when we're summing all this stuff up."
So far, he has spent more but he stands by that claim, saying he'll hit those numbers largely by ramping down staff in quieter times. In a couple of weeks after redistricting, it'll get much quieter at the Legislature.


Speaking at the decoration of 107 newly promoted officers, in Osogbo, Oluwasemire urged the officers to exhibit high level of professionalism in their dealings with inmates.
A statement made available to newsmen in Osogbo by the Command Public Relations Officer ASP Olusola Adeotan stated that the 107 officers are part of the promotions recently announced by the Controller General of Prisons, Mr Ja'afaru Ahmed.
Oluwasemire commended the leadership of the Controller General of Prisons for the reforms and progressions of personnel in Nigeria Prisons Service under him and urged the newly promoted officers to reciprocate the gesture.


Glasgow's Red Road tower block housing complex was constructed by the Glasgow Housing Associating (GHA) between 1964 and 1969, with the intention of providing a modern housing community for a whopping 5000 residents.
Under the leadership of architect Sam Bunton, the simple housing blocks were built up to 25 and 31 stories high—the tallest residential housing structures in Europe, measuring 292ft (89m).
Initially, Red Road was a seeming success: a modern live/work community with shops and pubs and even an immense underground bingo hall(?!) By the depression of 1970s, the housing community was in a dire state.
Anti-social crime, vandalism and frequent burglaries, picked up—echoing the the nearby low-rise Blackhill housing community that was plagued by ruthless crime gangs.
At this point, it was also discovered asbestos—used in large amounts to ensure the structural integrity of the buildings' steel frames—is a significant health hazard. But because of its integral role in the buildings' structure, it could not be removed until the building were demolished—and even then, safe removal would be tricky to maneuver.
Once symbolic of hope and prosperity, Red Road transitioned into a dumping ground of poverty, alienation, and crime.
Google Earth captured this video of the demolotion of one of the Red Road towers, Monday at 12:45pm. It took nearly 275 kilos of explosives to bring down the first Red Road tower block this past weekend, reports Arch Daily, "marking the beginning of a controlled demolition process that will completely remove the infamous residential complex from the Glasgow skyline by 2017."

How fake news almost destroyed two Kenyan tribes
Rumours made two tribes go to war in rural Kenya, until they learned the facts.
In August of 2012, two major tribes in Kenya's Tana River District took part in some of the worst ethnic clashes in the country's history.
The Orma, nomadic cattle-herders, and their farming neighbours, the Pokomo, have a history of fighting over water and grazing rights, but this time it was different.
Fake news and rumours incited the tribes to attack each other viciously, leaving 118 people dead and 13,500 displaced.
How did this happen and what stopped it?
On the show: Al Jazeera producer Priyanka Tilve travelled to Kenya's Tana River County to see how the tribes are coping. It includes a local, innovative solution in the fight against fake news. Our host is Mohsin Ali.

Q: MultipartFile getting set as Null with spring3 and rest cxf I am trying to upload a xls.
I have written below Rest Web service
@POST
@Path("/ui/uploadDocument")
@Consumes("multipart/form-data")
public void uploadDocument(@RequestParam("file") MultipartFile file )

I have also added below to the spring application context config:
    <bean id="multipartResolver"
      class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver">
    <property name="maxUploadSize" value="99999"/>
    <property name="maxInMemorySize" value="99999"/>
</bean>

Now I am trying to run the above using Chrome rest client and simple html code like below:
    <form method="POST" action="http://localhost/my-core/eCom/v1/catalogue/ui/uploadDocument" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    File to upload: <input type="file" name="file" id="file">

    Name: <input type="text" name="name">

    <input type="submit" value="Upload"> Press here to upload the file!
</form>

The problem I am facing from both rest client or invoking it via html code is that though the rest call is successfully called but the file(MultipartFile) is set as null.
Have I missed any setting above ?
We are using spring 3.0 and for rest support we are using apache jaxrs...
Anyones help is appreciated ...

A: I finally resolved the issue by doing the jax rs way.
Below is the code :
@POST
@Path("/ui/uploadDocument")
@Consumes("multipart/form-data")
public Response uploadDocument(List<Attachment> attachments, @Context HttpServletRequest request) {
     for (Attachment attachment : attachments) {
        DataHandler handler = attachment.getDataHandler();
        try {
     //            Creates a workbook object from the uploaded excelfile
            HSSFWorkbook workbook = new HSSFWorkbook(handler.getInputStream());
            HSSFSheet worksheet = workbook.getSheetAt(0);
            int i = 1;
            while (i <= worksheet.getLastRowNum()) {
                HSSFRow row = worksheet.getRow(i++);
                CatDefault catDefault = new CatDefault();
                catDefault.setCatId((long) row.getCell(0).getNumericCellValue());
             }
        }
     }

HTML code used to invoke is as below:
<form action="http://localhost/cat-core/eCom/v1/catalogue/ui/uploadDocument" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

        Select a file : <input type="file" name="uploadedFile" size="50" />

    <input type="submit" value="Upload It" />
</form>

Okay, so I know that I haven't really blogged about Love Island, but that's basically because I've been a bit lazy with blogging over the last few months. I wrote one post about Megan and how we've all had a friend like her before, and I still stand by that. But, I did really want to share my final thoughts, so strap yourselves in for a ride, kids.
To begin with, let's address the elephant in the room; Megan. I'll be honest, I wasn't her biggest fan. What she did to Laura was nasty, but if Laura can forgive her then so can I. I feel like, out of all of this year's contestants, Megan and Laura have been on the biggest journeys. I mean, Megan is actually beaming every single day lately and it's lovely to see. I don't think she thought twice about Laura when she stole Wes, but I think we can put that down to the fact that she's never had a true friendship with a girl, and you can see how this has affected her life.
I mean, just look how much the friendship with the girls has meant to her these past few weeks. She's opened up to them and I feel like we've finally seen the true her and I am honestly so pleased for her. She even cried at all of the declarations, not just her own. You can tell how much she loves these people, and I honestly think that this is the first time she has experienced true, girl-on-girl friendship.
And, she has blossomed because of it. It's brought out a new side of her that's funny, more relaxed, and most importantly happy.
Honestly, I think that Meg's had a rough ride at times. But she has bared her insecurities on national television and, hell, that must have taken a lot. You can tell how much Wes' parents liking her actually mattered to her and I just think that she's come so far from when she entered the villa.
As for Jani, obviously I am ecstatic that they won!! The rightful winners, of course, and I cannot bloody wait for their relationship to blossom. All I'm saying is that they BETTER get their own show; it's only right, DO IT FOR THE PEOPLE! I can honestly see them staying together forever and having loads of babies and still being just as lovely and in love as they are now in like 60 years time when they've got grandkids running around, and I would probs still watch a reality show about them then, to be honest.
I find it difficult to imagine Dr Alex or Wes returning to their careers after the show, which is a shame. But, I'm sure that they will have a whole new "influencer" career to keep them busy, along with all of the other islanders, of course.
I am a big fan of Wes, actually. I wasn't keen on the whole kissing Meg like 2 mins after dumping Laura scandal, but he has definitely grown on me. I felt for him when he returned to the villa to find Meg had gone with new Alex and I feel like he has genuine feelings for Meg, plus he proper made me laugh.
As for Dr Alex, let's not go there. He showed his true colours in the end and I'm afraid that I didn't find them appealing.
Laura is another contestant that I feel like has had a real journey in the villa. Yes, she has cried a lot. There's been times when I've loved her and times when I've not been keen, but you can't deny the journey. The only thing with Laura's journey is that, whilst it has been emotional, I'm not sure we've seen much change in her. She has a tendency to get jealous very easily which is understandable, considering that she's been hurt before, but also a little sad. I mean, she got pretty jealous over Paul being paid to kiss Britney which was just a bit strange, really. But I do wish her the absolute best.
To be honest, I don't feel like I can comment on whether I think her and Paul will last or not because I don't feel like I really know the guy very well at all. He didn't get much air time and had a personality a bit like a soggy bit of kitchen roll, but he makes Laura happy and that makes me happy. I hope that they do last in the real world for Laura's sake.
Josh and Kaz I find difficult. I really love Kaz, she's a bloody spice and I can see her going on to do great things. And, likewise, Josh I find absolutely hilarious and can 100% see him with a Boohoo man deal. But, I'm just not convinced by them. Do I think that they're attracted to each other? Absolutely. But I fear that it may be lust rather than love (I really hope they prove me wrong though!!).
And, as for Alexandra, I am excited for this gal!! She's absolutely gorgeous and has a lovely heart to match; I'm already willing for her to find her perfect man on the outside!
I really wish this gal lasted longer; they did her dirty there! She's an absolute sweetheart and I watch her instagram stories religiously, I'm sure she will still do very well for herself!
Yes, I am a loyal Georgia fan. She made some mistakes but she's a human and I'm gonna keep my eyes peeled as I'm sure we will see lots from her! (I'm already considering that she may get a book deal entitled something like "the L word" or "the meaning of loyal").
Aw, our little rainbow fish. I hope he's doing good, whatever he's doing. Lots of love.
What are your final thoughts? Let me know in the comments!

City set for double Adelaide challenge
Melbourne City defender Scott Galloway says his team is prepared for the challenge of taking on Adelaide twice in the space of four days.
City host the Reds at AAMI Park in the A-League on Sunday night, before a short turnaround to face the same team in Adelaide in Wednesday's FFA Cup final.
Both teams are searching for their first A-League win - City drew 0-0 with Melbourne Victory first-up while Adelaide lost to Sydney at home.
"It's going to be a tough game, it's going to be a good game," Galloway told reporters on Wednesday.
"We play them twice in two massive games right after each other so you take them one game at a time, we want the three points in the league to really kick-start our league campaign."
Galloway won the FFA Cup with Adelaide last year and enjoyed a breakout season before crossing to Melbourne City.
"To go back there to the place I won it last year and try and take it away from them now, it's going to be great," he said.
"It's a fantastic place to go play, the atmosphere's unbelievable but if you're the travelling team going there and you get the win it's not going to be that loud.
City will be bolstered by the return of Jamie Maclaren, who missed the Melbourne derby through international duty but scored a hat-trick for the Socceroos against Nepal, then another goal off the bench against Taiwan.
"There's no question of how good a player he is and how good a finisher he is," Galloway said.
"He's been scoring goals for us all pre-season in the Cup and then he goes away with the Socceroos and he's scored four goals in two games.
"He's a quality player and he'll be fantastic to have back in the squad, especially coming into these big games."

John Graham Harper – Stuck In China
Expat RightsMon, May 25, 2020 5:48pm URL:
John Graham Harper arrived in China from Australia 20 years ago, after his father secured a teaching position in Shenzhen.
Following an obsession with bodybuilding and martial arts, Harper started training people in Shenzhen when he was 18 years old.
"I didn't even know what a 'personal trainer' means. What do you do? And my (older) brother told me, 'you tell people, do you want to look like Arnold (Schwarzenegger)? I'll make you look like that.' So, I thought that's brilliant." – John Harper
He quickly became occupied with a career in physical training, opening gyms, and co-founded White Collar Fight Night, a charity organization that holds boxing events for white-collar workers.
Harper opened a gym, Fresh, with two other partners, and was the legal representative.
He said the other two partners did not want to risk being the legal representative of the gym in case something happened —they had families.
Five years ago, they sold the gym handing it over, with the membership debt, to a new buyer. Harper said "sold" is not the correct term it was more a simple change of ownership and no money was exchanged.
"The strategy was this thing (the gym) you (the buyer) need to take this. For me that was the win." — John Harper
He added the process was thought to be straight-forward making it the end of the story.
Three years later, Harper was set to go on holiday in the Philippines, when he was detained at the airport.
"My name is on a blacklist in China, which means I can't cross the border. And the reason I can't is because I have a court case that I need to figure out." – John Harper
He thought it was a mistake, at first, but was able to trace it back to the gym. He said the court attempted to contact him by phone and by mail. He missed the phone calls, and the letters were sent to the wrong address.
By the time Harper found out, a verdict had already been given. He had to pay over 350,000 RMB to the new owner of the gym.
Harper appealed the case to a higher court. For two years he studied the law, spoke with attorneys, and started a GoFundMe to pay for an attorney.
It all came to a head when he was hosting White Collar Fight Night in 2019, and the police took him out of the ring and forced him to start making payments of 20,000 RMB a month to the plaintiff.
Harper's appeal was denied on April 27, 2020. He said he could have easily won the case if he knew about it in the early stages.
For now, he is doing what he can to make the monthly payments and is stuck in China until the full amount is paid.

FLOW CONTROL CIRCUITS
THE BREATHING CIRCUIT
WASTE-GAS SCAVENGERS
ANESTHESIA MACHINE CHECKOUT LIST
Equipment-related adverse outcomes are rarely due to device malfunction or failure; rather, misuse of anesthesia gas delivery systems is three times more prevalent among closed claims. An operator's lack of familiarity with the equipment, an operator's failure to verify machine function prior to use, or both are the most frequent causes. Such mishaps accounted for about 1% of cases in the ASA Closed Claims Project database from 1990 to 2011.
The anesthesia machine receives medical gases from a gas supply, controls the flow and reduces the pressure of desired gases to a safe level, vaporizes volatile anesthetics into the final gas mixture, and delivers the gases to a breathing circuit that is connected to the patient's airway. A mechanical ventilator attaches to the breathing circuit but can be excluded with a switch during spontaneous or manual (bag) ventilation.
Whereas the oxygen supply can pass directly to its flow control valve, nitrous oxide, air, and other gases must first pass through safety devices before reaching their respective flow control valves. These devices permit the flow of other gases only if there is sufficient oxygen pressure in the safety device and help prevent accidental delivery of a hypoxic mixture in the event of oxygen supply failure.
Another safety feature of anesthesia machines is a linkage of the nitrous oxide gas flow to the oxygen gas flow; this arrangement helps ensure a minimum oxygen concentration of 25%.
All modern vaporizers are agent specific and temperature corrected, capable of delivering a constant concentration of agent regardless of temperature changes or flow through the vaporizer.
A rise in airway pressure may signal worsening pulmonary compliance, an increase in tidal volume, or an obstruction in the breathing circuit, endotracheal tube, or the patient's airway. A drop in pressure may indicate an improvement in compliance, a decrease in tidal volume, or a leak in the circuit.
Traditionally ventilators on anesthesia machines have a double-circuit system design and are pneumatically powered and electronically controlled. Newer machines also incorporate microprocessor controls and sophisticated pressure and flow sensors. Some anesthesia machines have ventilators that use a single-circuit piston design.
The major advantage of a piston ventilator is its ability to deliver accurate tidal volumes to patients with very poor lung compliance and to very small patients.
Whenever a ventilator is used, "disconnect alarms" must be passively activated. Anesthesia workstations should have at least three disconnect alarms: low peak inspiratory pressure, low exhaled tidal volume, and low exhaled carbon dioxide.
Because the ventilator's spill valve is closed during inspiration, fresh gas flow from the machine's common gas outlet normally contributes to the tidal volume delivered to the patient.
Use of the oxygen flush valve during the inspiratory cycle of a ventilator must be avoided because the ventilator spill valve will be closed and the adjustable pressure-limiting (APL) valve is excluded; the surge of oxygen (600–1200 mL/s) and circuit pressure will be transferred to the patient's lungs.

"Woeful. Men against boys. Only shining light was Swift who made a huge difference. No other positives whatsoever. Pathetic."
Rather think I trust a professional's view on the performance rather than the cr@p Stam spouts.
It does sound bad. All I would say is that it may be worth remembering that SUFC are no push overs. 3rd in the league and promotion contenders.
Also it does seem our away form is particularly pathetic.
Either way it's not been a good couple of months!
Been back a little while, the short trip home was possibly the best thing about it!
Anyway, we looked ok for the first 10 or so, a couple direct attacks (that came to nothing) and Barrow's pace chasing long balls looked to be an outlet......then they scored. After that there was only one team in it. That was the most frustrating thing. As soon as we went 1-0 down, we never looked remotely like getting back in to the game (even at 2-1, that just papered over the cracks). An example of this is Aluko. I thought he had a decent showing, if his job was to chase down their midfielders, make tackles and hold the ball up by the corner flag (at 2-0 down). However, clearly that isn't why we bought him. So what exactly was he meant to be doing? I could say the same sort of thing about Blackett...because he was often the furthest player forward on the left, but was then caught chasing back to defend. Equally Illori, who couldn't decide if he was play CB or as a number 10. Gunter returned to his usual Reading self and JVdB was just thuggish in the middle of the park. For me, Vito was probably our best player....but he didn't have masses to do and possibly could have done better with their first. That and Billy Sharp being the best player on the pitch summed today up. We look lost.
Much of this is obvious for the attendees and Ifollow viewers but I shall proceed none the less.
Our shape is working against us. We have too many players in our own half for too long during the games. Usually we are great at pondering about on the ball without doing anything meaningful but we struggled to do that this game. In fact we struggled to much at all until the final quarter of the game. Sheffield were a perfect match for our chosen tactics today. They pressed high and played with real intensity. They took full advantage of their set pieces and were unlucky not to score 2 more minimum for free kicks positions. Our fouling played right into their hands today allowing them to control the pace of the game, taking breathers when needed and taking quick balls at the right time. This was in stark contrast to us, who for the most part, took quick free kicks in a seemingly desperate attempt to apply some pressure or attack on the break. In reality I think we would have been better off by stopping and evaluating our position more often, perhaps passing it back and trying to get back to our calm passing at the back.
Our defenders were all over the shop today. Easily led around by the Sheffield attackers. I think our man marking left us dragged about by some simple but effective passing (not to disrespect our opponents, what they did worked but wasn't difficult) Blackett in particular struggled in this regard, with the first goal being mostly his fault as his positional ill-discipline created as much space as Sheffield would ever need down the wing. This is probably because hes not a natural LB or even a natural FB/WB. I agree we should never have changed the defensive line-up from the previous match.
The midfield was isolated and I cant blame them for anything this game. JVDB was his usual over-enthusiastic self who I was surprised didn't get a second card after making 3(I think?) obvious fouls. Edwards was more isolated given his tactical instructions but was often chasing after the ball and trying to put in tackles. He looked frustrated through out and I believe I'm correct in saying he too often lost the ball after making a fair challenge.
The last part of the second half we finally kicked it up a gear. The introduction of Swift made a hell of a difference. He created a different problem for the Sheffield defenders, in fact his introduction made it even more obvious that when we set up with a 5-3-3 we are easy to defend out of a game as there is only one attack to defend against.
The goal was taken well and for the 10ish minutes that followed it actually looked like we might get another goal (undeservedly) Clement in particular looked lively and desperate to win.
Mannone - 6 - Not good, not bad. One good save at close range but positionally was worrying a few times. His passing was standard.
Gunter - 5 - Maybe should consider switching flanks? Was often too central in defense.
Moore - 6 - Hard to think of anything he did wrong but equally hard to think of anything he did well.
Illori - 5 - Looked entirely disinterested at times. Lazy movement after a clearance while the ball was still in play.
Bacuna - ? - I couldn't quite tell what position he was playing and couldn't figure out what he was up to for long periods.
Blackett - 4 - Again better in attack than defense. Not something you want in a starting defender in a team struggling to win.
JVDB - 6 - Movement was more positive. I don't think his vision is great with many passes doing nothing for the team.
Edwards - 5 - Like a slightly worse Evans at the moment. Often hard to spot doing anything but necessary none the less.
Beerens - 6 - Took a shot from the distance in the first half and at least tried something to get a goal.
Barrow - 6 - Its hard to rank these guys higher despite the assist and the goal as the first half they were barely in the game. I like him.
Aluko - 5 - I'm marking him down because of how much he cost.
McShane - 4 - Not his fault he was the worst player to bring on. *Cough Richards Cough* Deserved yellow.
Swift - 7 - A player we have missed badly. Can see him leaving in January for a smaller fee than we would like to see. MOTM.
Clement - 6 - Shortish cameo but actually tried. something a lot of players haven't been doing.
Ref - Fook me this guy didn't like to let small fouls go. Made the awful football on display worse by penalising every tiny indiscretion.
Yes Sheffield are in better form and I think most people would say were realistically likely to win anyway but much of my bitterness comes from how poorly we played. I honestly think that was the worst performance under Stam. It might not have had any stand out moments of awful but the whole thing left me so disinterested and depressed about the future of this team (that I have been genuinely excited about seeing progress) I would have more happily watched The Big Bang Theory.
Queue everyone saying "we're not Spain"
I know we don't have the same quality players as Spain but we're not playing international quality teams. It's not an excuse. Playing tactics that require a striker while not having a striker on the pitch is an issue.
The reason why we've been struggling this season and why we were awful for 80 minutes today are so evident. We're playing a team with no balance in midfield and we signed 2 midfielders more than we needed. We're so much better in midfield with Swift, Kelly and Evans. Swift links into forward areas well. Evans breaks up play and Kelly is quick and mobile who plays good long balls forward. Maybe Van Den Berg, Swift and Edwards can work, time will tell but we looked far better when Swift was on.
We need to stop 5 at the back right now. It's negative and invites teams to come on to us. 5 at the back only works if our full backs are good at getting forward and although Blackett got good crosses in, he lacks pace. Stam has to return to a 4-3-3 vs Boro.
We've played so many different formations which means that we have players who don't know what they're doing. Aluko today in centre midfield i mean wtf? He's playing Grabbans old midfield role which clearly doesn't suit him. So Grabban plays up front for Sunderland and he's actually scoring! Wow.
FAO those bemoaning our away form.
Dont need to be a professional to know that plan A (i.e. dont play strikers but play a load of wingers) does not work and makes for nothing more than utterly pathetic football and zero threat. We all knew what to expect as soon as the lack of Bod was revealed yesterday.
Wonder if itll be the same next week or will there be an experienced striker available?
Don't get me started on home form!
The style of football that we play is not what is needed in the Championship. It is passionless, boring, predictable etc. Dutch football is on the decline. We were lucky last season to get where we did. Time for change before things get worse!
Exactly, as I said in the match thread, we were excellent against Villa playing with a false nine.
