Women's History Month: Lena Edwards promoted natural childbirth
I could have written about Lena Edwards Madison either last month during National Black History Month or this month for National Women's History Month. I chose this month because I had other African-Americans I wanted you to know about last month.
Two weeks ago, when I wrote about Norman Francis, I said that he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom—the country's highest civilian honor. So did Lena Edwards, from President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964.
Lena Edwards was a medical doctor, an obstetrician. She became renowned as a public speaker on public health, and as an advocate of natural childbirth. She spoke frequently against both abortion and sterilization, before the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision in 1973.
She was born in 1900 in Washington, D.C., the daughter of a dentist and oral surgeon named Thomas Edwards. Her mother was a homemaker. She was valedictorian of her high school class in 1917, and then entered Howard University in Washington. She completed her undergraduate work and then graduated from Howard University Medical School in 1924.
She must have been a popular student because she was elected president of the Howard University chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta sorority while she was there.
She also met Keith Madison, a fellow student in the medical school, and they married after their graduations. They had six children together between 1925 and 1939. However, she and Madison separated in 1947.
After their graduation from medical school, they moved to Jersey City, N.J., and entered separate medical practices. Lena served the European immigrant community and the poor. After six years, she joined the staff of Margaret Hague Hospital in Jersey City, but because of her race and gender, was not admitted to residency in obstetrics and gynecology there until 1945.
She moved back to Washington in 1954 and taught obstetrics at Howard University Medical School. She continued her advocacy for natural childbirth, but she refused to accept an offer to chair the obstetrics department because of her objections to teaching methods of abortion.
She was medical adviser to the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs and the chair of the Maternal Welfare Committee of the Urban League in the District of Columbia.
In 1961, Edwards had another change. She left Howard University Medical School and moved to Texas where she helped found Our Lady of Guadalupe Maternity Clinic in Hereford. It was during this time that she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. She worked at this mission for Mexican migrant workers until she suffered a heart attack in 1965. She returned to Washington where she worked at the Office of Economic Opportunity and Project Head Start. She retired in 1970.
While rearing her children and serving in all these capacities, Lena Edwards was also a devout Catholic, attending Mass every day. She had a great devotion to St. Francis of Assisi and the virtue of poverty. She became a secular Franciscan, and in 1967 was awarded the Poverello Medal for exemplifying the ideals of the founder of the Franciscans.
Lena Edwards died in 1986, at age 86, in Lakewood, N.J. †

Q: Element is not removing from vector after convert from json to vector I have a data model like this:
    public class Person {
        String name = "";
        Integer id;
        public Person() {
            name = "";
            id = new Integer(0);
        }
    }

First I have created 2 objects and added in a vector. Converted the vector into json string. After doing some checking again I have converted the json string into vector. Inside the vector it's showing the correct number of elements and data. But when I am trying to get position of one object it's returning -1. Even using vector.remove() I am unable to remove the object. If I don't convert the vector into json string it's working fine. Following is my code:
        Gson gson = new Gson();
        Vector vecResult = new Vector();

        Person person = new Person();
        person.name = "ABC";
        person.id = new Integer(1001);

        vecResult.add(person);

        Person person2 = new Person();
        person2.name = "DEF";
        person2.id = new Integer(1002);

        vecResult.add(person2);

        String json = gson.toJson(vecResult); //successful

        Type token = new TypeToken<Vector<Person>>() {}.getType();
        Vector<Person> vecResults = gson.fromJson(json3, token); //vecResults got 2 objects
        int pos = vecResults.indexOf(person); //returning -1
        boolean isRemoved = vecResults.remove(person); // returning false

A: You need to override following
boolean equals(Object obj)
int     hashCode()

Your code is not working because Vector#remove uses following for getting index.
public synchronized int indexOf(Object o, int index) {
    if (o == null) {
        for (int i = index ; i < elementCount ; i++)
        if (elementData[i]==null)
            return i;
    } else {
        for (int i = index ; i < elementCount ; i++)
        if (o.equals(elementData[i]))
            return i;
    }
    return -1;
    }

Please note default implementation for equals is as follows
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
    return (this == obj);
    }

A: Your Person class doesn't override equals() (or hashCode()).
When you serialize to JSON and then deserialize, that will create new instances of Person - which are entirely non-equal to the original ones as far as indexOf and remove are concerned. They happen to have the same name and id values, but that doesn't automatically make them equal.
Override Object.equals() and Object.hashCode() for whatever meaning of equality you want (just name? just ID? both?) and it should be fine.
Note that it's generally better to make fields private, and provide property getters/setters.

A: remove() tries to loacte the object via the equals() method. By default this is the object identity. Generate an explicit equals() method for person (in eclipse you can just generate one using all fields).
(When overriding equals() you also need to have a matching hashcode() method)

1962 Nicholas 2022
Nicholas R. Donato III
April 20, 1962 — July 3, 2022
Hopewell Junction, New York
Nicholas R. Donato, III, age 60, passed away suddenly on Sunday, July 3, 2022. Born in North Tarrytown, NY on April 20, 1962 to Nick and Sophie Donato. He is survived by his 2 sons, Michael and Nicholas Donato (Teresa), as well as his beloved fiancé, Maureen Athow. Additionally, Nicky had one brother, Kenny Donato (Teresa) and one sister, who was also his best friend, Pam Donato-Hustis (Davey). His nephew KJ Donato, nieces Danielle, Marie and Amanda Donato, and his Godchild Alyssa Hustis also survive him, as well as his cousins Johnny and Jimmy Somers (Julie) and the mother of his boys, Camille Donato. He is pre-deceased by both of his parents, his nephew Christopher Hustis, and his beloved Labrador, Bella.
Nicky was a member of Teamsters Local 456 and worked at Peckham Industries, where his energetic personality will be sorely missed. Nicky grew up in Ossining NY and graduated from Ossining High School in 1980. He was on the hockey team and was an avid hockey fan. The NY Rangers were his favorite team..so much so that he named his lab puppy "Ranger." He was also a long time, dedicated Yankee fan. He loved being outside, working in his pristine yard and enjoying the comfort of his pool.
Nicky was best known for his larger than life personality and everyone said that he lit up a room the minute he entered. He always had a story to tell, usually with a funny ending, and usually at his own expense. Nicky had countless friends with whom he kept in touch with…from his school days, to his men's softball league and hockey teammates. He was a loyal friend and would help anyone if they needed it. Nicky was a wonderful friend, caring neighbor and people instantly loved him the first time they met him.
The loss of Nicky will be a difficult one to all who knew him because he left an indelible mark on so many lives. To them, the world will seem less funny, smaller and a little bit sadder, knowing that Nicky's bright light has gone out. His memory will live on through the numerous stories people will tell of his antics, surely bringing a smile to faces who share even the smallest of recollection.
Friends are invited to call at the Clinton Funeral Home, 21 Parrot Street, Cold Spring, NY on Thursday from 5 to 8 PM and Friday from 4 to 8 PM. Funeral services will take place at 1 PM, Saturday, July 9 at the Clinton Funeral Home with graveside services immediately following at the Cold Spring Cemetery. Nicky will be laid to rest inside a family mausoleum, beside his nephew with his mother there as well.

Written by Tools Mirror in Blog Last Updated December 15, 2022
Nail guns are an invaluable tool for many professionals and DIYers alike. They are great for quickly and easily driving nails into hard surfaces, with power, and precision. And while every nail gun is different, there is one question that many users have: how far can a nail gun shoot? This is an important question to consider when making sure the nail gun is the right tool for a particular job.
In this blog post, we will discuss the factors that determine the maximum range of a nail gun, and how to maximize the range of a nail gun for a given job. We will also outline the safety considerations users should take into account when determining the maximum range of a nail gun. By the end of this post, readers will have a better understanding of how far a nail gun can shoot, and be better equipped to choose the right tool for the job.

Deciding Factors For Nail Gun Shooting Distance
1. The Length Of The Nails
2. The Type And Power Of The Nail Gun Being Used

5. The Air Pressure Of The Nail Gun
How To Maximize The Range Of A Nail Gun

Do nail guns go through bone?
What is the most powerful nail gun?
Can a nail gun shoot through concrete?
Final Takeaways
A nail gun is a powerful tool often used in do-it-yourself projects, as well as in commercial and industrial construction. But how far can these powerful tools shoot? Generally, the distance that a nail gun can shoot depends on the type of nail gun, the type of nails or staples being used, and the hardness of the wood it penetrates through.
Standard nail guns usually fire nails in a straight line and can reach distances ranging from 1/2 inch to 4 inches in length into the wood. However, some powerful nail guns can go further.
If you shoot a nail in the air (though it is nearly impossible as most of the nail guns need to press the muzzle to shoot), it may travel a distance of about 50-100 yards.
Usually, nail guns are designed to shoot at short distances and not for range or high velocity. Most of the standard nail guns can shoot nails up to a distance of 2 to 3 feet. Some specialty nail guns (like air-powered or powder-actuated nail guns) are designed to shoot nails further and may be able to shoot nails up to 10-20 feet.
It is important to remember that the greater the distance the nail gun is set to shoot, the more power it will require and the more likely it is to cause injury if not used properly.

A nail gun is a powerful tool that can fire a nail at speeds up to 1000 feet per second. The speed at which a nail gun shoots depends on the type of gun, the type of fuel used, and the size of the nail.
Most commonly, a nail gun can shoot three 16-penny nails per second at a speed of up to 400 feet per second. This speed is more than enough to quickly and efficiently finish a job.
A nail gun is an essential tool for any home improvement or construction project. Its ease of use and speed make it a great choice for carpenters, contractors, and DIYers alike. It is important to use the right type of nail gun for the job and to always use safety precautions when operating a nail gun.
Among the many factors that will determine how far a nail gun can shoot, the length of the nails is particularly important. A longer nail will be able to penetrate deeper into the surface, allowing it to shoot farther.
On the other hand, a shorter nail will require greater pressure to make it penetrate the surface, limiting its shooting range.
Moreover, longer nails may also be more likely to cause damage to the material being nailed, depending on the type of materials. Therefore, when choosing a nail gun, it is important to consider the length of the nails it can use.
When determining how far a nail gun can shoot, the type and power of the gun is an important factor. Nail guns are available in different types and sizes, from small handheld units to larger, more powerful machines. The type of nail gun used will affect the maximum distance a nail can be fired.
For example, a pneumatic nail gun is typically more powerful than a battery-powered one, and therefore will be able to fire nails further. Also, the size and gauge of the nail can make a difference; nails with larger gauges and larger heads will be able to travel further than smaller ones.
The angle of the nail gun is important when determining how far it can shoot a nail. Depending on the model, the angle of the gun can range from 15 to 30 degrees. The higher the angle, the further the nail can be shot. When using a nail gun at an angle, it is important to consider the direction of the nail, as it should be aimed in the direction of the target. The angle of the nail gun will determine how far it can shoot a nail, so it's important to adjust it properly.
The type of surface the nail gun is shooting into is an important factor in determining how far it can shoot. Generally, the harder the surface, the farther the nail gun can shoot. This is because the harder material provides less resistance to the nail being fired, allowing it to travel further.
On the flip side, softer materials can absorb more of the force from the nail, causing it to slow down and travel a shorter distance.
The type of nail being used can also affect the distance the nail gun can shoot – for example, thicker nails will not travel as far as thinner nails. It's important to be aware of the surface the nail gun is shooting into and make sure it is capable of shooting into it.
Knowing the air pressure of your nail gun is incredibly important for achieving the desired shot distance. The air pressure of the nail gun is measured in PSI, or pounds per square inch. The higher the PSI output, the more powerful your nail gun will be, and the farther your nail can shoot.
Generally, the range of air pressure for a nail gun is between 70 and 120 PSI. It's important to adjust the pressure to the correct level for your desired shot distance. Too little pressure will result in a weak shot and too much pressure can cause damage to the nail gun or the surface you're nailing into.
Using a nail gun correctly and safely is essential to ensure that the job is done correctly. To maximize the range of a nail gun, it is important to use the right size nails for the material being used; the nails should not be too big or too small.
Additionally, it is important to make sure that the nail gun is calibrated and adjusted properly. The depth adjustment should be set to the correct depth for the material and the air pressure should be regulated according to the material being used.
Regular maintenance of the nail gun is also essential to ensure that it is in proper working order.
Following these steps will help maximize the range of a nail gun and ensure that the job is done safely and efficiently.
Nail guns, or nailers, are tools that can be used for a variety of construction tasks. While they are effective tools and can be quite dangerous, they are not typically used as a weapon. Nail guns are limited in the amount of power they can produce and the nails they fire are lightweight and often not long enough to cause serious damage to another person.
Also, nail guns are usually designed in such a way that you cannot shoot nails in the air. To shoot a nail, you must press the muzzle of the nail gun on an object first.
Due to the limited power and special design, a nail gun is not a suitable weapon for self-defense either. As such, it is important to note that the use of nail guns as weapons is not recommended and is not typically permitted.
Nail guns are widely used for construction and carpentry work, but there are many questions about their potential to penetrate bone. The answer is that nail guns when used correctly, can penetrate bone depending on the size, type, and angle of the nail.
Generally, a nail gun will only penetrate bone when the nail is fired at a very sharp angle, with a large diameter and a blunt tip. It should be noted that this is not recommended and doing so risks serious injury. Working with nail guns always requires caution and safety measures should always be followed to ensure that the nail does not penetrate bone or any other body part.
Among different types of nail guns, pneumatic framing nailers or air-powered nail guns are the most powerful and you may able to shoot up to 20 feet distance with this type of nailer.
Yes, you can shoot nails through concrete or steel. T-nailers or powder-actuated nail guns are high-velocity nail guns. To fasten wood to concrete walls or metal sheets you may use this type of gun effortlessly.

It is important to remember that nail guns are powerful tools and should be used with great care. Different types of nail guns, depending on their design, can shoot nails anywhere from two to twenty feet or beyond. It is important to ensure that the nail gun is set to the correct pressure and that the user is wearing the appropriate safety gear while using the nail gun. Following these precautions can help to ensure that the nail gun is used safely and effectively.


Well, its a tough life!
I am hiding in the Happy Medics kitchen whilst he and Kim work on the tea (read dinner) for tonight.
obviously not a staged photo! - What is Kim chopping??
Its nearly 100 degrees outside and I dont do heat very well.
Yet again, the curse of my transatlantic travel hit again and saw me delayed at Chicago O'Hare in the terminal for 2 hours, then sitting in the plane on the tarmac for the following 3.5 hours. All in all, it took 28 hours to get from door to door, which leaves me feeling more than a little tired, but very happy to be back with my U.S extended family.
Look at the top of this page and it is likely that there is a advert for the (Hi, Justin pushing Mark aside to say hello…Hello!) upcoming filming of the next three episodes of 'A Seat at The Table' These epiosdes are being brought to you with the assistance of Zoll and Penwell and the contents of the shows can be found here. You can click the advert or click here for the chat room which will be open from 1pm Pacific time which is actually a great time of 9pm UK time.
I am very excited about having the opportunity to discuss some interesting topics with some influential folks in the EMS industry and the Police force.
Remember though, you can be part of it also by logging in to the chatroom where you will be able to hear the audio and pose your questions and thoughts in real time at your own 'seat at our table'.
We would love it if you could be part of it and have your say.
Justin saying 1 - 1, or is it something else??
« A comment to make me think….
Could the picture be a reference to a recent soccer match?
we all know what justin is really saying in that picture…..

Кейси Айкфелд (; 15 ноября 1989, Гаррисберг, Пенсильвания, США) — американский каноист-слаломист, участник двух летних Олимпийских игр, двукратный чемпион Панамериканских игр, многократный призёр чемпионатов США.

Спортивная биография
Заниматься греблей Айкфелд начал уже в 2 года под руководством своего отца, а с 5 лет стал заниматься гребным слаломом. В 8-летнем возрасте Кейси стал самым молодым участником национального кадетского первенства. С 14 лет Айкфелд стал участвовать в соревнованиях в составе молодёжной сборной США. В 2006 году Айкфелд стал вторым На Панамериканском чемпионате в соревнованиях одиночек. В 2008 году Кейси Айкфелд дебютировал на летних Олимпийских играх в Пекине. Айкфелд принял участие в соревновании двоек. Его напарником стал Ричард Пауэлл. В квалификационном раунде молодые американские гребцы не смогли оказать достойную конкуренцию более опытным соперникам и заняли предпоследнее 11-е место.

В 2011 году Айкфелд стал двукратным обладателем серебряных медалей Панамериканского чемпионата, а также стал вторым в личном зачёте и третьим в соревновании двоек на национальном чемпионате США. В 2012 году по результатам многоступенчатого национального отбора Кейси опередил Бенна Фрейкера и получил возможность выступить на своих вторых летних Олимпийских играх.

На летних Олимпийских играх 2012 года в Лондоне Айкфелд выступил в соревнованиях каноистов-одиночек. По итогам первой квалификационной попытки Кейси показал 8-е время, но штраф в 2 секунды, полученный по ходу дистанции откинул его на 10-е место. Тем не менее этот результат давал право выступить в полуфинале. Однако не самое лучшее прохождение второй попытки не позволило ему улучшить собственный результат, при этом в итоговой таблице его смогли обойти трое гребцов, в результате чего Айкфелд откатился на 14-е место, которое не позволило ему продолжать борьбу за олимпийские медали.

Летом 2015 года в программе Панамериканских игр состоялся дебют гребного слалома. Соревнования каноистов в рамках Игр прошли для Айкфелда триумфально. Американский гребец стал чемпионом, как в соревнованиях одиночек, так и в двойках вместе с Девином Макивэном. Этими победами Айкфелд также принёс американской сборной две лицензии на участие в летних Олимпийских играх 2016 года. В сентябре 2015 года Кейси был близок к своей первой награде на взрослом чемпионате мира. Как и три года назад на Играх в Лондоне Айкфелда подвели 2 штрафные секунды, которые он заработал во время финального спуска, в результате чего американский гребец вместо заслуженной бронзовой медали, завоевал лишь 4-е место, отстав от 3-го на 0,21 секунды.

There's always some concern over entrusting a parcel of any value to a shipping company, and a corresponding sense of relief on learning of its safe arrival. But if you're supplying products sensitive to humidity, light or temperature such as pharmaceuticals, food or electronics, it's not just a passing uneasiness –your business viability depends critically on vulnerable shipments that arrive safely, without having been damaged in transit.
Fortunately, the rise in IoT technology has facilitated an affordable solution; the TrackerSense system. This comprises small, sealed GPS trackers that can be dropped into a parcel just before shipment, and an intuitive web portal that shows the tracking history, current location and environmental data of shipments anywhere in the world, enabling full tracing capability.
As the TrackerSense modules are often single use, it was important to select a SIM card connector that is compact, robust and cost effective. GradConn has helped TrackerSense achieve this, with their economical 2FF Push-Pull Mini SIM Card Connector, type CH03-AL. The connector is offered with 6 or 8 pins. It has full IEC68 approval for a range of environmental characteristics, yet is available at a price point sufficiently attractive for TrackerSense's low-cost, single-use module production.
The low-profile height facilitates the module's compact design, while its metal frame provides additional support for the SIM and reduces warping from heat. It also distributes contact pressure more evenly.
GradConn is a multinational company with a presence in the UK. Consulting with their local engineers at the outset of a project is always worthwhile, as they can help find the best balance between cost, performance and ruggedisation. They can also produce custom solutions if they offer the most cost-effective approach.
Andy Hamlin, Sales Manager at GradConn, comments: "We were glad to help TrackerSense as we relish projects like these - not least because we are now seeing increasing demand for innovative solutions from the asset and package tracking sector."

Q: Is a method that has a method call in one if its parameters called tail recursive? I am studying tail recursion and I am not sure I am getting the definition right.
I saw this post's best answer (link)
  and am wondering if the method sum(int x, int num) is considered tail-recursive in the following example:
public class tailrecusiontest {

    private static int total;

    private static int add(int num)
    {
        total+=num;
        return total;
    }

    public static int sum(int x, int num) //THIS METHOD TAIL-RECURSIVE?
    {
        if(num == 0)
        {
            return x;
        }

        return sum(add(num), num-1);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.print("" + sum(0,4));
    }
}

I.e: What is stopping me to create an object and have call a method ( add(int num) in my example) that will handle the data, give back an output and, by definition, call it the method tail-recursive?
I am asking this question because an assignment is asking me if I can make a method "tail-recursive", and wonder how far the definition of tail-recursion extends.
This means that I can create any method and pass in the values then call it tail-recursive

A: Your method meets the definition of tail recursion, but Java itself does not have the tail recursion optimization. That means that you will still have a N-sized stack and return through it 1 by 1.

A: In simplistic terms, tail recursion is a type of recursion where the recursive call is the final instruction in the function.
Based on that simple definition, your sample code is tail recursive because the recursive call is the last instruction.
That said, this question feels like a duplicate since you're essentially asking what tail recursion is and several posts on SO have done justice to that. For further reading on tail recursion see 'What is tail recursion'.

On 1 January 1999, the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) was created. The currencies of 12 member countries of the European Union (EU) were first irrevocably fixed and then replaced by one European currency, the euro, earlier than the deadline of 1 July 2002. According to Article 2 of the Maastricht Treaty the aim of EMU is to promote 'sustainable and non-inflationary growth respecting the environment, a high degree of convergence of economic performance, a high level of employment and of social protection, the raising of the standard of living and quality of life, and economic and social cohesion and solidarity among Member States.' From this one may expect a positive relationship between EMU and the social environment.
As "the Anthropocene" emerges as a geological term and environmental analytic, this paper examines its emerging rhetorical topology. We show that Anthropocene narratives evince a macroscale division between an "inner" and "outer" environment. This division situates an Anthropocenic environment that matters in the surface zone between Earth's subsurface and the extraterrestrial "outer spaces" that we address here. We review literature in the sciences and social sciences to show how contemporary environmental thinking has been informed by understandings of Earth's broader planet-scaled environmental relations. Yet, today's Anthropocene conversation draws analytic attention inward and downward. Bringing in literature from scholars who examine the role of the extraterrestrial and outer environmental perspectives in terrestrial worlds, we suggest that Anthropocenic theorizations can productively incorporate inclusive ways of thinking about environments that matter. We argue for keeping "Anthropocene" connected to its spatial absences and physical others, including those that are non-anthropos in the extreme.
Putting the Right Price on Marine Environments?
The flow of ecosystem services from coral reefs, seagrass meadows and mangrove forests sustains the livelihoods of billions of people worldwide. Faced with the global degradation of marine and coastal ecosystems, policy makers are increasingly focusing on ecosystem service valuation techniques to encourage conservation and sustainable use of marine resources. Here we provide a review and synthesis of the available information on economic valuation techniques as applied to tropical marine habitats. Our study demonstrates the high variability and lack of consistency in outcomes from these studies. We conclude that, if the concept of ecosystem goods and services is to make a positive contribution towards managing the impacts of humans on the environment, then economic valuation approaches must reflect the inherent limitations of economic theory whilst emphasizing the complexity and heterogeneity of the natural environment and human decision making.
This article approaches environmentalism as a way of positioning ourselves in relation to the world around us. It traces transformations in how two prominent North American environmental groups—the Nature Conservancy and the Sierra Club—conceptualize environmentalism's objects, objectives, and ideal human-environment relationship. Historical narratives highlighting how and why these organizations have redrawn their conceptual maps demonstrate that while mainstream environmentalism's prevailing topology once placed humans apart from and above the environment, the contemporary movement appears to be approaching a more inclusive vision that admits humans as an integral part of the environment. Yet because including human activities and concerns within environmental agendas is neither free from pragmatic problems nor invulnerable to ideological challenges, the article also considers how the same broad conceptual trends that have facilitated the reconceptualization of human-environment relationships may also concurrently complicate it.


At an Opening Service in the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King on Sunday afternoon, 3 February 2019, Archbishop Malcolm McMahon inaugurated Synod 2020 with the words of the proclamation, 'I hereby decree the convocation of a Synod for the Archdiocese of Liverpool to be held from 17–18 October 2020. This will be known as Synod 2020.' At the Service, which concluded with a 'Liturgy of Light and Sending', the 500 members of the Synod were commissioned for their work.
Homily preached by The Most Reverend Malcolm McMahon OP, Archbishop of Liverpool, at the Service for the Opening of Synod 2020 from 3pm on Sunday 3 February 2019 in the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King, Liverpool.
On my desk I have a statue of St Joseph holding a pair a of turtle doves, the modest sacrifice of the poor. This was the offering that Mary and Joseph made when they journeyed to the temple in Jerusalem to fulfil the Law of Moses in Mary's purification and Jesus's presentation. It reminds me that we are to be the Church of the poor, poor people as the servants of the poor. Jesus was a poor preacher with nowhere to lay his head, and it is with that in mind that we step forward together on the road to Synod 2020.
In the Gospel reading from St Luke which we have just listened to, Mary and Joseph after the completion of their rituals were met by an old man named Simeon. He is described as a holy man, devoted to prayer and waiting for the consolation of Israel. He was part of a group known as the 'quiet ones', who sought in prayer the hope of salvation. They had no interest in political or military solutions to the sorrows of their people. They chose prayer as the best route to the future hope.
The Holy Spirit filled this man and revealed to him that he would see the Messiah before he died. The Spirit brought him to the temple that day and led him to the couple who held Jesus in their arms. He took the child into his own arms and began to sing. The song he sings is the death song of an old man, but it is filled with hope because he has completed his purpose in life by seeing Jesus. He found the child in the arms of poor people making the offering of the poor. In the sunset of his life he encountered the sunrise of the poor. In the evening of his life, he was fortunate enough to behold a new day.
And what does Simeon prophesy? What does Simeon say when he picks up Jesus into his arms? Simeon doesn't say I have seen the Messiah; instead he says, I have seen God's salvation. And this salvation is not just for the Jews but for all people. And then he goes on to explain that many will be divided over Jesus. He will be a sign of contradiction: many will listen and follow, and many will reject Him, to the point Mary herself will be wounded in her heart because of what happens to her Son.
From Simeon he heard the first human hymn that was composed out of love for him. Simeon could go in peace because he had seen the Saviour of the world.
Let us reflect now where we are up to in our journey to Synod 2020. We have been the quiet ones. We have prayed as an Archdiocese for over a year, quietly before the Blessed Sacrament. We hold in our arms the 'salvation which has been prepared for all the nations to see'. We are the poor making an offering in the Mass of the poor Son of God, and we pray that we will have our eyes opened and our ears unstopped so that we can see further and hear more acutely as we form our vision for the Church in Liverpool. We have learnt that it sometimes takes the vision of an old person to show us that what we sometimes see as old and worn out is often the beginning of something new. The sun is not setting on the Catholic Church in the Archdiocese of Liverpool, but a new day is breaking, a new dawn is rising. This view is the vision of Simeon and it has to be our view too.
Maybe we can ask Simeon, the prophet, to help us remove the evening and the night from our eyes and see brightly as we enter upon the road together towards Synod 2020. As we hear Simeon's song our vision is changed. When we listen to each other our vision will be changed too. We believe that because we are baptised the Spirit of God lives in us; that is the spirit of Jesus whom Simeon cradled in his arms; that is why this change will happen within each of us. God's spirit can change words into understanding, sounds into sight and song into a clear vision of the future.
It is with confidence then that we can look to the future as walk together on the road ahead of us.
When Gregory of Nyssa comments on this passage, he says that it was only when Abraham did not know where he was going that he knew he was going the right way. We are all sons and daughters of Abraham, so maybe the same is true of us. We often do not know where we are going, but maybe that is when we know we are going in the right direction.
Let us return to Simeon: we are not to be downhearted by Simeon's prediction that there will be suffering and pain in store for Jesus, and that Mary will suffer as a result, just like any mother. It takes another old person who happened to be passing by, a prophetess called Anna, to cheer us up. We may surmise that she had a great smile on her face as she embraced Mary and Joseph and praised God for their child and spoke of Jesus to all who looked forward to the deliverance of Jerusalem.
We can learn from Anna that to speak of God to others is to praise him, and in praising him we will be filled with joy.
The journey ahead towards Synod 2020 may seem long and arduous, and there will be many diversions and setbacks, but with the hope of Simeon and Anna in our hearts we will come to a new vision for our Archdiocese and it will be transformed into the Church that we are called to be.

A seascape is a photograph, painting, or other work of art which depicts the sea, in other words an example of marine art.  The word originated as a formation from landscape, which was first used of images of land in art.  By a similar development, "seascape" has also come to mean actual views of the sea itself, and to be applied in planning contexts to geographical locations possessing a good view of the sea.

History
The word seascape was first recorded and coined in 1790. Smithsonian noted in 2016 that the first use it found was 1804. The term was modelled after the word landscape. In modern times, seascapes have endured partially in depictions of maritime works of art, as well as views of the sea.

Planning use

In the UK a seascape is defined in planning and land use contexts as a combination of adjacent land, coastline and sea within an area, defined by a mix of land-sea inter-visibility and coastal landscape character assessment, with major headlands forming division points between one seascape area and the next.  This approach to coastal landscape planning was developed jointly by Government environmental bodies in Wales (UK) and Ireland in 2000 to assist spatial planning for (at that time new) offshore wind farm developments.  The resulting "Guide to best practice in seascape assessment" (Marine Institute, Ireland, 2001), have since been adapted and applied in Scotland and Wales for guidance to offshore wind farm developers and for carrying out spatial planning assessments.

Meanwhile, the word has also been adopted in England  referring to the historic and archaeological character areas of the sea – a different but complementary methodological approach encompassing what lies beneath the sea surface.  This use of the word departs from the focus on scenery and visual perception, relying instead just on cognitive perception (what lies beneath the sea surface is out of sight to most of us).

The Welsh language distinguishes between 'Morluniau' (seascape in the traditional sense of a picture, view or painting) and 'Morweddau' (seascape as a distinct, geographical area exhibiting particular characteristics and qualities).  There is no such distinction in the English language.

Jardin Majorelle Marrakech, originally uploaded by laurenz.
Located in the heart of Marrakechs new city, Jardin Majorelle is a beautiful spot to somewhat relax from the other wonders of this city.
It once belonged to the painter Jacques Majorelle who also happened to be interested in botanics.
There is a small museum displaying his paintings as well as some islamic art, but possibly his most amazing work is the way brightly coloured buildings and ceramics blend with the tropical plants.
This very much reminded me of the modern glass installations of Dale Chilhuly in Miamis Fairchild Gardens.
The park was also once owned by Yves Saint Laurent.

means it is a bit later than optimal.
As for the other crops. When growing dry beans for storage, the process is different than green beans. The entire bean should be allowed to remain on the plant until the beans rattle audibly inside of the pod. The plant should be pulled, held upside down, and rattled inside a larger container so that the hulls open up. Then, the debris should be blown away from the beans with a hair dryer, fan, or air compressor. Store them in an airtight container out of the sunlight.
Lastly, squash should be allowed to fully mature, and be picked, right around the first frost.
Small space garden three sisters success!
Beans fed the corn, corn trellised the beans, squash protected the ground from evaporation.
You will see actual picking of the squash, plus the corn and beans up drying for storage. Then you will see a schematic of how I planted the Three Sisters and future plans.

La línea N3 de la empresa municipal de autobuses de Madrid es una línea nocturna que conecta la Plaza de Cibeles con Canillas.

Características
La línea, al igual que todas las líneas nocturnas de Madrid de la red de búhos, empieza su camino en la plaza de Cibeles y sus horarios de salida de la misma coinciden con los de otras líneas para permitir el transbordo.

La primera línea N3 que se creó en octubre de 1974 tenía el itinerario Sol - Moratalaz, con un recorrido similar al de la actual N8, llegaba entonces a Canillas la línea N1. En mayo de 1994, con la ampliación de la red nocturna de 11 a 20 líneas, la línea N3 empezó a realizar el recorrido Pza. Cibeles - Canillas casi igual al que hace en la actualidad.

Cuando se amplió la red de 20 a 26 líneas, en octubre de 2002, la línea mantuvo la denominación y la mayor parte del itinerario excepto al final, donde se creó un circuito neutralizado para cubrir mejor los desarrollos urbanísticos de Canillas situados en la calle Silvano y la Avenida del Machupichu.

En su camino hacia Canillas, la línea presta servicio al los barrios de Goya, Lista, Guindalera y Parque de las Avenidas (distrito de Salamanca), el barrio de San Pascual y la parte central de la calle de Arturo Soria (Ciudad Lineal). Tiene circuito neutralizado dentro de Canillas (Mota del Cuervo > Pedroñeras > Silvano > Machupichu)

Horarios

Recorrido y paradas

Sentido Canillas
Partiendo de la Plaza de Cibeles, la línea sale por la calle de Alcalá en dirección a la Puerta de Alcalá, recorriendo esta calle hasta la intersección con la Avenida de Felipe II, donde gira a la derecha para incorporarse a la misma pasando junto a las dársenas del intercambiador multimodal situado en esta avenida. Sale de aquí girando a la izquierda por la calle Narváez, y sigue de frente al final de la misma por la calle Conde de Peñalver.

Circula por la calle Conde de Peñalver hasta la intersección con la calle Juan Bravo, donde gira a la derecha para incorporarse a la misma hasta el final de dicha calle, donde sigue de frente bajando por la calle Martínez Izquierdo en dirección al Parque de las Avenidas.

Llegando al final de la calle Martínez Izquierdo, gira a la izquierda para tomar la calle Biarritz, que desemboca en la Avenida de Bruselas, ya en el Parque de las Avenidas. La línea circula por esta avenida hasta llegar a la Plaza de Venecia, donde toma la Avenida de Brasilia, que la lleva a cruzar la M-30 sobre un puente entrando en el barrio de San Pascual.

Dentro del barrio de San Pascual, la línea circula por la Avenida de Badajoz hasta la intersección con la calle Torrelaguna, donde gira a la izquierda para subir por esta hasta girar a la derecha incorporándose a la calle Condesa de Venadito. Llegando al final, gira a la izquierda por la calle Agastia y a la derecha por la calle Hernández de Tejada, que desemboca en la calle de Arturo Soria, que toma la línea en sentido norte.

La línea circula por esta calle hasta la intersección con la calle López de Hoyos, donde gira a la derecha para incorporarse a la misma durante 2 manzanas, girando después a la derecha de nuevo para tomar la carretera de Canillas, que se adentra en el barrio homónimo.

Recorre entera la carretera de Canillas hasta llegar a la intersección con la Avenida de Machupichu, donde sigue de frente por la calle Mota del Cuervo, que recorre entera girando al final de la misma por la calle de Las Pedroñeras, que recorre hasta el final, donde tiene su cabecera en la Plaza de Andrés Jáuregui.

Sentido Plaza de Cibeles
La línea inicia su recorrido en la Plaza de Andrés Jáuregui, desde la cual sale por la calle Silvano, que recorre hasta la intersección con la Avenida de Machupichu, donde gira a la derecha para tomar la misma. Al final de esta avenida gira a la izquierda para tomar la carretera de Canillas.

El recorrido es igual a la ida pero en sentido contrario hasta llegar a la Puerta de Alcalá con algunas salvedades:
 En vez de salir directamente a la calle de Arturo Soria desde López de Hoyos, lo hace circulando por la calle Navarro Amandi.
 En lugar de circular por las calles Torrelaguna, Condesa de Venadito, Agastia y Hernández de Tejada, circula por las calles Condesa de Venadito y Madre Antonia París, al final de la cual desemboca en la Avenida de Badajoz.
 Al final de la Avenida de Bruselas continúa de frente por la calle Azcona en vez de circular por las calles Biarritz y Martínez Izquierdo, que son de sentido único.

Al llegar a la Puerta de Alcalá, se desvía por la calle Alfonso XII, por la que circula hasta llegar al cruce con la calle Antonio Maura, por la que baja hasta el Paseo del Prado y gira a la derecha para circular por este paseo hasta llegar a la cabecera en la Plaza de Cibeles.

For the benefit of our skaters we ask all parents, skaters, and coaches to observe the following guidelines so that freestyle sessions can be a positive experience for all.
Freestyle sessions are designed for figure skaters to practice their routines and advanced skills. During these sessions, skaters will be doing difficult jumps and spins. If you are unsure if a freestyle session is for you, consult with your coach. All skaters must sign in and make payment prior to entering the ice. Prior to first visit to any freestyle session, a parent or coach must review the freestyle rules with the skater.
• All coaches are responsible for monitoring rules and safety on freestyle sessions, regardless of whether or not it is the skater's own coach. All suggestions or reprimands are to be received with sincere respect and courtesy.
• Rules are only to be enforced by coaches- not other skaters.
• Parents and NOT the coaches or rink management are responsible for their children and should be present during their child's session, particularly at the lower levels.
1. The following safety rules are zero tolerance. These safety rules and courtesy suggestions are subject to change as the need arises. If there are any questions please discuss them with your primary coach or a member of the coaching staff. Failure to follow rules can result in expulsion from freestyle sessions.
2. All skaters are entitled to equal use of the ice.
3. No one is allowed on the ice without skates.
4. Skaters and coaches must be courteous and respectful at all times to other skaters and coaches. Accidents happen, please use friendly and courteous language, such as, "Excuse me…" if someone is in your path of travel. Apologize if you accidentally interfere with another skater's practice.
5. Skaters and coaches must remain both cautious and alert at all times. Respect each other's space by not skating too close to another person.
6. Skaters must keep moving unless receiving instruction from a coach. If a skater falls, they must get up immediately if able to do so. DO NOT sit on the ice. If you must stop – do so only at the boards (side-walls).
7. Skaters should not stand around in groups talking or playing. All conversation is to be held at the wall or off the ice, unless a coach/skater is demonstrating something.
9. Always be aware of what is happening around you. Be mindful of skater's practice patterns; Be mindful of high level skaters passing near you at high speeds. Do not change direction without checking behind you.
10. Respect other's space. DO NOT skate or jump too close to another skater or coach. DO NOT skate too close to a skater who is spinning.

I usually carry around large oversized handbags. For those of you who also love large handbags, you'll know the black hole zone that exists within the depths of said bag. I find that keeping a small cosmetics bag inside with my must haves keep me sane, especially in public places! My current bag is by Urban Expressions and the small cosmetic pouch is by Betsy Johnson.
Do you like big purses/ handbags? How do you keep yours organized?
I try and steer clear of large bags for the very reason that they become a black hole. However, some of them are just too pretty to resist 🙂 so if I am carrying one I have everything in little cosmetic bags like you have.
I barely carry small purses. I am in love with big bags! I organize mine by putting lip gloss in a pocket, having a pocket saved for miscellaneous things (such as bobby pins) and organizing everything else in little bags like you!
My big bag is "home base" and my little bag inside is "satellite". Satellite gets to go to the bars.

Two new starters at Tuffa this month
We are pleased to welcome two new members to the Tuffa production team this month.
Kane Falconer flying high
Local lad Kane Falconer, 20, from Uttoxeter, joins us from the assembly line at JCB to work in our plastic factory. Kane is on the team running our roto-moulding oven, loading the polymer into the mould, cooking, cooling then finishing the plastic tanks into top condition ready for the customer.
Away from work, Kane plays for football for local team, Bramshall in the Uttoxeter & District Football League, but has previously played at a semi-professional level for Leek Town. Kane is a lifelong Manchester United fan – but we won't hold that against him…
Kane was pleased to get the opportunity to join Tuffa UK. "I'm really enjoying it here," he said. "The lads on the oven are really friendly and it's very satisfying to see the plastic tanks in various shapes and sizes being manufactured."
Kane Falconer (left) and Daniel Simpson in the factory.
Daniel cooking up a storm
Daniel Simpson also lives in Uttoxeter but originally comes from Kent. Dan came to us from the award-winning Denstone Farm Shop where he was a Chef. Things in the factory canteen are definitely looking up, and all the guys and girls are looking forward to the day Daniel cooks lunch for everyone!
Now Dan is cooking up a storm on our mezzanine level factory, making plastic weld tanks instead of paella or tapas!
"I was ready for a new challenge and I'm enjoying the factory environment," he said. "The plastic weld tanks are a relatively new product for Tuffa and demand is high. It's great to be part of a successful manufacturing company."
Dan is married with a 3 year old son, and in what little spare time he gets enjoys carp fishing. His record is a 27lb carp – so far – although now he is fishing at Baden Hall Fishery he is after a rumoured 50lb carp in the lake there. We'll bring you the pictures of Dan with that monster carp if he lands it.
Good luck to both of you and welcome to the Tuffa Team!

# rects3 = ax.barh(neutral_vals, width=.2, color='yellow', label="neutral tweet count")
ax.set(yticks=x_locs, yticklabels=t_label_lst, ylim=[0, len(x_locs)])
plt.show()

But this just causes the program to crash with the following error message: "TypeError: barh() got multiple values for argument 'width'" I'm not even sure why this error is coming up if I'm setting the width parameter to .15.
total_vals contains 35 counts, or frequencies that I'm trying to plot in the x axis. Like these are the values that I'm trying to make my bars reflect in terms of height. positive_vals and neutral_vals also contain 35 counts.
x_locs is a variable I created based on what I saw in the sample code, but that's just supposed to be the numbers 0-34. That's just supposed to indicate each of the 35 bars I'm trying to show.
What's also getting me confused is what happens when i remove x_locs. So if I just do
 rects1 = ax.barh(total_vals, width=.15, color='r', label="total tweet count")

I get this matplotlib graph, which seems to plot my "width" parameter on the x axis of the graph/makes the width parameter the limit of the x axis.

My yticks seem like they're actually displaying correctly in the order that they should be going at least, but it appears that the width is what's gettting plotted or measured on the x axis... and clearly, the graph is empty.
I get that my yticklabels are hideously long right now and I merely uploaded this code just so that it could be reproducible.
I'm not really certain at this point what the "y" parameter is actually supposed to indicate. The documentation says "the y coordinates of each bar." I initially was thinking that the y parameter was just supposed to be the counts I wanted to show, but then I saw that the "left" parameter is "the x coordinates of the left sides of the bars."
So I changed my code to
rects1 = ax.barh(y=x_locs, left=total_vals, width=.15, color='r', label="total tweet count")

And this changed the y axis correctly, but it still gave me an empty graph. I don't know what's happening to my counts/bars and why they're not showing at all.

How do I actually get the bars to show? I just have some clear confusion about how the parameters actually work for these horizontal bar graphs.

A: You were actually really close with your code; you just had some confusion about the parameters of barh.
First, let's clarify the required arguments are.
The first positional argument is y, which refers to the y-coordinates of each category. Accordingly, x_locs is a misnomer. These can be created easily, in running order: the first category at y=0, the second at y=1 and so on.
Next, you pass a variable like total_vals, but also width, and get an error.
Consider that a bar is defined by two aspects, position and size. Since all the bars are aligned with the left spine of the plot, their x-coordinates are the same, and they will be defined solely by their y-coordinates, which we have already done.
For a bar plot, we generally want one dimension to be dynamic (the one which represents some quantity), and the other to be the same for all bars. The one that is the same is height, since it is equal to the vertical size of the bar.
The other, dynamic, dimension, then, is width, and it is width that represents total_vals, positive_vals and negative_vals. Accordingly, you got that error because you were trying to specify how long each bar should be twice.
Now, let's go back to y_locs. Remember that we want 3 bars for each tick, side-by-side. This is equivalent to saying that we want each "class" of bar (total, negative and positive) to be adjusted slightly, otherwise they would overlap.
For example, we could have the bars for negative remain at the positions specified by y_loc, the ones for positive shifted downwards by 10 pixels, and the ones for total by 20. This is an implementation detail; what is important is that we recognise the need for such an offset.
Putting all this together, we get:

ax.set(yticks=x_locs, yticklabels=t_label_lst, ylim=[0 - padding, len(x_locs)])

A: I think the simples answer is just change width into height, since it's a vertical graph.

Savannas can be found throughout Hardin County. Projects in the Sac & Fox Wildlife Area and Anders Wildlife Area highlight the benefits of savanna management.
The savanna area at Anders Wildlife Areais a real gem and has a great deal of potention. The oak savanna was once one of the most common vegetation types in the Midwest but is today highly endangered. Intact oak savannas are now one of the rarest plant communities on earth. Just hiking through the area in the Fall of 2014, one could see several remnant prairie species showing through where ever there was enough light reaching the ground. This site, not too long ago, had Pasque flower documented on it by Nancy Slife, an indicator that this could withhold a high quality remnant prairie.
Starting in the Fall of 2014, Conservation managed the honeysuckle by mowing with the BrushCat. We did not want to use a great deal of herbicide on this site until we knew what sort of response we would get from the prairie. We started felling with a chainsaw all of the undesirable tree species, consisting mainly of cedar, cherry, mulberry, box-elder, and ash and created small burn piles. We also put a fire break in on the east and west boundaries of the unit as this site was planned to be burned in the Spring of 2015.
The photos below show the Anders Savanna Restoration Project from January 2015 to May 2015.
Throughout the winter, we used a mixed approach of management on the steep drainages and slopes surrounding the savanna unit at Anders Wildlife Park. Where it was feasible, we felled the trees and piled and where the grade made it difficult, we used Basal Bark treatment of brush/trees. During the last week in February 2015, the conditions were perfect for staff to get machinery (Tree-sheer/Grapple/Chainsaw) back on the site and start removing more trees. The results after just a few days of work are quite impressive. Hardin County Conservation encourages everyone to get out and check the area out as we expect a total transformation to take place among the vegetation.
Sac & Fox Wildlife Area is a mostly reconstructed prairie through its expansive valley, but has great potential for remnant prairie on its steep slopes where these large Bur and White oak trees reside. Sac & Fox is located just north of Steamboat Rock. The beautiful overlook gives a rare opportunity to see a bird's-eye view of native prairies and Oak Savannas.
Obtained in1995, Hardin County began savannah management in Sac & Fox in 2002 and began conducting prescribed burning in 2005. Below is a series of photos of the timber stand improvement project at Sac & Fox from October 2014 to May 2015. The project involved the removal of dense invasive honeysuckle.

Interpublic joins the data race with $2bn Axciom deal
Posted by: Stephen Foster in Agencies, Creative, Finance, Media, News July 3, 2018	Comments Off on Interpublic joins the data race with $2bn Axciom deal
In a sign of how rapidly things are changing in adland Interpublic is buying data business Acxion Marketing Solutions (below), with whom it's been working since last year, for $2bn after tax allowances. This is the bulk of Acxiom business although it doesn't include its LiveRamp customer operation.
IPG adds 2000 people with data on over two billion customers and 20 billions customer records. Acxiom will come under IPG's Mediabrands media arm.
One thing agency holding companies are good at is playing catch-up and, after years of being kicked around by Google and Facebook with their reams of data, the world seems to be changing. One reason is the new GDPR rules on data permission, designed by the EU to rein in Google in particular but which have opened the door for others to assemble their own data stacks. WPP may well be reconsidering its option of selling Kantar in the circumstances.
Michael Roth of IPG CEO Michael Roth says: "In a world where everything is becoming data-driven, Acxiom Marketing Solutions offers the deepest set of capabilities for helping companies navigate the complexity of creating personalized brand experiences across every consumer touchpoint. Combining AMS with a range of IPG assets will help us shape the future of our industry. Acxiom's leadership on data ethics is second to none, its business is solid and growing, and it has long played a foundational role in the marketing ecosystem."
Mediabrands boss Phillippe Krakowsky says: "Everyone knows how valuable data is, but for most businesses it remains an under-leveraged asset. There also remains a great deal of uncertainty on how best to combine data with the creation and delivery of marketing messages..with the skills and capabilities that AMS brings to our portfolio of companies, we can offer clients end-to-end solutions that we believe will change the way in which we work for brands, and accelerate the onset of outcome-driven marketing."
Another buyer could yet interrupt the party although IPG says this is a "definitive agreement." The news may spark interest at Arthur Sadoun's Publicis Groupe too. Publicis has said it's looking for a big data acquisition and, a few years ago, former boss Maurice Levy came close to buying IPG before turning his attention to merging with Omnicom, which didn't work either.
IPG's Roth will hope this deal future proofs IPG. But may also act as a trigger for a bigger rationalisation in data-driven adland.

About Stephen Foster
Stephen is a former editor of Marketing Week and London Evening Standard advertising columnist. He wrote City Republic for Brand Republic and is a partner in communications consultancy The Editorial Partnership.


After a trip from Sydney that I can only describe as biblical, I arrived at the Autodromo Riccardo Paletti racetrack. Located about 30 kilometres south-west of Parma, I was a little taken aback at its distance from the city itself. After all, people live in cities and it's these very same people who tend to buy tickets to bike shows. The further you place the show away from the people, the less of them tend to come.
None the less, you couldn't have hoped for a better location. Picturesque Northern Italian town with a castle. Cool river for swimming. A professional racetrack. And enough surrounding nature to mean that a decent flat track oval and an extensive enduro course could easily be cut out of the surrounding landscape with nothing more than a tractor and a bunch of perimeter tape. And unsurprisingly, the people came.
Bored of the live band? A five minute wander to the sprint races should see you right. Bored of the sprint races? A five minute stroll to the flat track will change things up. Flat track dust too much? Time for a little enduro, maybe? Whatever the case, you get the idea. Sure, Wheels & Waves offers a similar selection of goodies but here at Wildays, it's all available within a stone's throw. No need to ride across any international borders or travel any great distances. It's all right here.
The brainchild of Marco and Phonz from Italian custom shop Anvil Motociclette and supported by a few local business visionaries, the show screams 'informed moto fanaticism' from the rooftops. These aren't businessmen looking to make a quick buck. Hell no. These are riders who have sat down with a blank piece of paper, written 'Ultimate Bike Show' at the top of the page and then gone to town.
My personal highlights? Tearing around a flat track on a hired Yamaha SR400 from the Di Traverso Flat Track School. Campfire laughs with the Vagabund boys on a Saturday night. Cool beers in the cool river at sunset on the show's last day. Midnight V8 donuts with crazy Daan from Moto Adonis. And eating like a king with Dopz from Emporio Elaborazioni. Note to self: barbecued goat meat on a stick is the best beer food ever.
And the sheer amount of moto bambinos tearing around the show was a heart-warming testament to the future of the scene, at least in Italy. The Italian's attitude towards the younger generations hopping on bikes seem, to me at least, to be passionate, well-intentioned and delightfully free of that over the top 'Health & Safety' mindset that seems to pervade shows in the US, UK, and Australia. Father and unlicensed young daughter practicing their riding in a quite corner of the show? Not a problem. And their wasn't an over zealous security guard with a chip on their shoulders to be seen for miles.
The team behind the show has just announced that it'll be on again in May 2018. We're positively champing at the bit to get over there again. Take it from us, if you have the chance to make it to the next show, you'd be a total barbecued goat not to come along. Just look for the Aussie in the Pipeburn t-shirt with the smile and the liberal coating of flat track dust and make sure you say hello.
How many shows can boast of their own flat track?
The fine print: In an effort to keep things as legit as possible, we feel it's best to mention that the Wildays team paid for our trip to Parma to visit the show. Rest assured that if the show wasn't up to scratch, we'd have no problems in saying just that. We will always endeavour to give you the best reviews possible without fear or favour; Northern Italians bearing delicious Parma ham and hard cheese included.

Home Entertainment Oscar-Winner Brad Bird Takes Audiences to "Tomorrowland"
Oscar-Winner Brad Bird Takes Audiences to "Tomorrowland"
He directed the worldwide hit "Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol," the fourth installment of the Tom Cruise-starring franchise, which netted nearly $700 million globally. Before that, he won Oscars® for writing and directing the Academy® Award–winning Pixar Animation Studios films "Ratatouille" and "The Incredibles." Now, Brad Bird brings to the screen a film inspired by the visionary and pioneering mind of Walt Disney himself – "Tomorrowland."
"Walt Disney was constantly innovating," says director Brad Bird in admiration. "He was never afraid to be the first to do something. He was among the very first in animation to introduce sound and color. When he started working on Disneyland everyone thought he was insane. Disney was forever jumping out of planes and then improvising a parachute on the way down. He was excited about things like space travel; all you have to do is look at those specials he did with Ward Kimball in the late fifties to see that Walt was really excited about the idea of progress. He had a massive curiosity and `Tomorrowland' represents that."
Bird adds, "One of Disney's quotes was, 'I don't make movies to make money; I make money to make movies.' Was he a perfect guy? No. But when you look at how much he accomplished in his lifetime it's just staggering. So I view him as an innovator. He had a very proactive and positive view of the future. I like to think that this film is something that he would enjoy."
"'Tomorrowland' is a quintessential Disney movie," says executive producer Jeff Jensen, who is credited with story by with Bird & Damon Lindelof. " It is steeped in the values of Walt Disney: you're going to see some amazing special effects and very innovative storytelling. And we've tried to remain true to the spirit embodied in places like Tomorrowland and Epcot—places Walt imagined would constantly develop new ideas for the future. Walt and his work was constantly changing, constantly evolving because in his mind the future was never fixed; the future is a project that is never done."
Lindelof and Jensen wrote a detailed story draft, then Brad Bird and Damon Lindelof went out for lunch and, according to Lindelof, "It turned out that Brad knew quite a bit about Walt Disney and the hook was in. Brad and I started writing together from that point on."
It is true that writer/director Brad Bird is no stranger to the world of Disney and it isn't just from working on his previous films. When he was 11, Bird developed an interest in animation and visited the Disney Studios. Over the course of three years he finished a 15-minute animated film that came to the attention of Disney Animation, who offered to assign a mentor—the famous Master Animator Milt Kahl—to the then 14 year old. Bird stayed with a family friend in Los Angeles to take advantage of the once-in-a-lifetime offer.
Commenting on the story for "Tomorrowland," Bird says, "It's a very untraditional story and the protagonists are atypical. It's a chance to do to work on a grand scale but do something that hopefully will be very surprising. It embodies both aspects of the future—the scary and the wondrous—both of which are somewhat unknowable, so it's an interesting ride."
"Tomorrowland" promises to take audiences on a thrill ride of non-stop adventures through new dimensions that have only been dreamed of.
Bound by a shared destiny, former boy-genius Frank (George Clooney), jaded by disillusionment, and Casey (Britt Robertson), a bright, optimistic teen bursting with scientific curiosity, embark on a danger-filled mission to unearth the secrets of an enigmatic place somewhere in time and space known only as "Tomorrowland." What they must do there changes the world—and them—forever.
Opening across the Philippines on Friday, May 22, "Tomorrowland" is distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures International through Columbia Pictures.
