Q: StatusBar not always updating I am relatively new to MVVM, and I am trying to code up a basic Status Bar for an MVVM WPF application.  I think I have the gist of things, but for some reason, the status bar does not always update, and I am not sure why.
In my ViewModel, I have a basic property that I update when I change a status message:
public string StatusMessage
{
    get { return _statusMessage; }
    set
    {
        if (value == _statusMessage) return;
        _statusMessage = value;
        base.OnPropertyChanged(() => this.StatusMessage);
    }
}

My OnPropertyChanged method (which I have in a base ViewModel class that implements INotifyPropertyChanged) looks like so (got this idea from Gunther Foidl; wish I could claim credit for it because I think it's slick but I'm not quite that smart):
protected virtual void OnPropertyChanged<T>(Expression<Func<T>> exp)
    {
    MemberExpression me = exp.Body as MemberExpression;
    string propName = me.Member.Name;

    PropertyChangedEventHandler handler = this.PropertyChanged;
    if (handler != null)
    {
        handler(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propName));
    }
}

At any rate, this all works great for all of my controls except one.  On my MainWindow.xaml file, I have a StatusBarItem control bound to the above property, like so (the rest of the XAML has been trimmed for space reasons):
<StatusBarItem Grid.Column="0">
    <TextBlock TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis" Text="{Binding Path=StatusMessage}" />
</StatusBarItem>

When I run my application (which hits a couple of DBs in addition to generating a document from template and a bunch of other fairly resource-intensive stuff), some, but not all, messages show up on the status bar.  I have debugged and verified that the messages all make it into the StatusMessage property, above (and the ensuing private variable), they just don't seem to be refreshing in the UI.
I have looked at several examples that use BackgroundWorker instances for ProgressBar controls, but haven't seen any for StatusBarItem controls, and am not really sure how to translate one to the other.
I have also used Tasks before in previous C# 4.0 and WPF apps, and figure it's probably a good way to go, but I haven't really been able to figure out how/where to designate the UI task (I've always done it in the code-behind for the MainWindow before, but I'm striving for a zero-code-behind to stay in keeping with MVVM here).
I'm pretty sure that a multi-threaded approach is the way to go; I just don't know enough about one approach (I know a little bit of this and a little bit of that) to make it work.  I did see a couple of posts that used the older threading approach directly, but I pretty much stayed away from multithreading programming until I started using Tasks with .NET 4.0 (finding them a little easier to comprehend and keep track of), so I had a bit of trouble making sense of them.
Can anyone take pity on me and point me in the right direction, or suggest further debugging I can do?  Thanks!

A: 1)Reflection based binding can be source of error sometimes because of inlining. Try to see what happens if you notifypropertychanged with simple string instead of reflection.
2) if you are using multi threads there maybe a chance that you setup StatusMessage not from UIThread in that case it won't be able to update UI, you could invoke setter code on UI Dispatcher to see if that helps
3) check whether binding works , in constructor of xaml form modify StatusMessage directly on VM and see whether the change is shown on UI without invoking multithreaded service calls which introduce additional variables to simple textblock - string binding
4) if that doesn't help you could create a simple xaml form with single textblock bind it to your big viewmodel and see what happens, if nothing works you can begin cutting VM class to make it simpler so binding eventually starts to work and you find an error
5) if you think that statusbar is the problem see if single textblock without statusbar (extract xaml part from your example) works

A: Somewhere the notification does not get through.
I would try :

*

*Add a dummy valueconverter on the textbinding so you can set a breakpoint and see if you are called

*Dispatching the property set to set the value at a "better" time - that is sometimes nessesary.

Dispatching the set might do the trick.

Thug beats man with wine bottle 'for holding another man's hand' in latest Birmingham hate attack
October 11, 2021 EditorComment(0)
John-Paul Kesseler was victim to an unprovoked homophobic attack after holding another man's hand in public (Twitter/@jpkesseler)
A man was smashed over the head with a wine bottle and struck with an iron bar in the latest homophobic attack in Birmingham city centre.
John-Paul Kesseler was left with blood pouring down his face after being targeted in the early hours of Sunday (October 10) as he returned to his hotel with a friend after a night out.
Kesseler believes he was targeted for one reason and one reason only – "for holding another man's hand".
"There was a bloke standing outside his car and he noticed us," he told BirminghamLive. "He said we shouldn't be holding hands and I said: 'What's the problem?'
"He started getting aggressive and reached into his car for an empty wine bottle. I wasn't really thinking we were in any danger, so wasn't paying any attention and thought: 'Let's walk away'.
"I didn't notice him coming and the next thing I knew, I felt bashed round my head. I felt I was bleeding, I could feel blood dripping down my clothes. I was a bit dazed.
"I immediately called the police and the bloke went into his car and grabbed a pole. He started coming at me with this pole. I put up my arm up to block him and the pole hit my arm."
After that the attacker fled the scene in his car, leaving Kesseler bleeding by the road.

"God f**king damn. I am so angry right now," he tweeted after the attack. "Just outside of the gay scene, our supposed safe space, these cretins feel emboldened enough to do this."
"The worst thing about what happened tonight wasn't, weirdly enough, the bottle round the head, it was the people who saw it happen then try to justify it with, and I am quoting: 'Yeah, but we don't agree with that LGBTQ stuff'."
Police and ambulance crews attended quickly and Kesseler spent several hours at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Fortunately his injuries were not serious – though others among Birmingham's LGBT+ community have not been so lucky.
The city has seen a spate of anti-LGBT+ hate crimes in recent months, including a gay couple who were beaten with glass bottles and a trans woman who was stabbed on her own doorstep. A victim of another suspected homophobic attack earlier this month came close to losing his sight.
West Midlands Police previously said it was stepping up its patrols following the attacks. Responding to the latest incident, the force said: "We are investigating after a man was assaulted in a homophobic attack in Birmingham in the early hours of yesterday morning (10 October).
"The 38-year-old man was walking along Holloway Circus, Birmingham when he was approached by another man who attacked him with a glass bottle and an iron bar.
"He was taken to hospital to be treated for injuries to his face and arm and has since been discharged. We have taken an initial statement and have arranged to take a full statement later today (11 October).
"CCTV of the area is being reviewed as our investigations continue.
"We understand that experiencing a hate crime is extremely distressing and upsetting and we want to reassure anyone who is targeted that we will listen, their report will be treated with sensitivity and we will take action."
Birmingham MP Shabana Mahmood also condemned the rise in hate crimes and said she had demanded "swift action" from West Midlands Police.
"Deeply concerned to learn of another attack on a member of Birmingham's LGBT+ community near Hurst Street. There is no space for this type of hatred in our city," she tweeted.
"Last week I wrote to West Midlands Police regarding the rise in attacks taking place in the Gay Village and called for swift action. Will raise with Chief Constable Dave Thompson to ensure those in Birmingham can feel safe once again."
Deeply concerned to learn of another attack on a member of Birmingham's LGBT+ community near Hurst Street. There is no space for this type of hatred in our city. 1/2
— Shabana Mahmood MP (@ShabanaMahmood) October 11, 2021
Kesseler said the force's response to the attack had left him "heartened", but highlighted that other victims haven't had the same treatment from police.
"Birmingham Police have been proactive in dealing with this," he tweeted on Monday (11 October). "There are obviously issues regarding the rise in homophobic attacks in and around the gay scene, with a change and/or increase in preventative measures needed, but their reaction to this has left me heartened.
"That said, finding out that Matt [Brooks], after his attack a week and a half ago in a high he nearly lost an eye, wasn't contacted until [LGBT+ activist] David Nash made enquiries on his regard, is very concerning.
"Very thankful to [Birmingham Pride director] Lawrence Barton for inviting me to speak with him and the superintendant for Southside, where we were able to ask what measures were going to be taken and how they planned to regain the trust of our community.
"I believe their sincerity, but more needs to be done."

With the recent election, a number of people have discovered that our society is heading in a "bad direction." Marxism, an ideology that has trashed every place where it has ever been applied, is on the rise. Socially, Americans have little in common with each other. The country is broke and in the hands of bickering maniacs.
To many voices on the right, it seems like this recent outrage exploded out of the wall at the behest of Barack Obama and his minions. He converted our country overnight into this land of descent. In their view, we are all innocents who have been ambushed by this sudden Marxist, multiculturalist, and Statist golem of hatred.
However, this is short-sighted and forgets that for the last century, many people have been resistant to the conditions which made Barack Obama an inevitability. Most of them were not on the right, and almost none of them were coherent, so they amounted to protest and art and nothing more.
Like the parents of a delinquent teen who find themselves, after sixteen years of ignoring some unmet need of their child, facing a police investigation, we are denying the lengthy backstory to our current dilemma. We should have seen this coming, but we denied it because those who spoke of it were generally oppositional to our society.
From 1890 to 1999, most conservatives have fallen into a party line of freedom, liberty and free markets. They advised us even as things were getting bad to put our heads down, work hard on our stuff, and ignore what others were doing.
They forgot one thing, however: civilization inherently distributes impact of its policies to all of its members. If not direct cost, socialized cost. If not that, by foreclosure of future options based on the decisions we have made today. Civilization regulates what options are available to us.
This conservative ideology of rugged individualism carried us through many tough times because it encouraged personal responsibility and, as a result, allowed us to shrug off parasites. It never protected against social decay, however, and that context influences society as a whole, neatly ensnaring the rugged individualists.
Probably the most emblematic symbol of this conflict was the 1950s in America. On the surface, life was perfect: war won, economy booming, kids everywhere, wealth abundant. Under the surface, "problems remain": ethnic conflict, class resentment, pluralism causing resentment, working women agitating against the family, misery and boredom.
The latter two are the most important. In the great postwar boom, everyone became a slave to the dollar. Mainly because if you didn't want to slave, there's another guy right over there who does, and he'll take your place. You'll end up selling apples in Central Park, buddy.
The fact is that we've made a miserable society. Modern life is ugly, harshly competitive, rewards the wrong people, pollutes everything it touches and is driven by the capricious trends and whims of special interest groups. Most people experience days of grinding boredom in redundant jobs where the bad behavior of others is the norm.
This situation is not new. People have been loathing our society for a century or more and with good cause. With each succeeding generation, the rot has become more complete. It finally found a perfect host in the Baby Boomers who starting in 1968 made it an official state religion and required talking points for the social elite.
All of the gnarly frustrated art which has come out of America and Europe during these years, from Hemingway to Burroughs to Houellebecq, has shown us what we have been fighting hard to remain in denial of: our society is rotting from within through lack of shared values, goals, hopes, dreams and/or quests. We are directionless.
The result is a society where commerce and trends have dominated everything and rendered all of it to the level of obligation. Democracy and freedom (etc) were supposed to help us escape unnecessary obligation. Instead, we've created more of it, by giving freedom to everyone so that they can abuse it and also sell themselves at a low price per pound.
Conservatives have failed to succeed in this environment because of our attitude of defending society. It's popular to say that we shouldn't pick any one political party, or ethnic viewpoint, but what about society as a whole? We shouldn't defend it just because it's what's left of what we once loved.
Instead, we should recognize that this collapse has been a long time coming. Since 1789, or the Enlightenment, or maybe it's a trap that has been with humanity since the beginning. It has rotted us away and made life miserable for many generations, and with each one we get more twisted and bitter and pass it on to our kids.
The only way out is to reform society. People should work less, and think more. They should not be forced to burn away their time on redundant or superfluous tasks. The goal should be quality of life, not quantity of people, dollars or warm bodies enthusiastic about some transient idea or another.
If our goal is to conserve, our enemy is society. We must vanquish it so that we can preserve values and common sense. That this involves re-starting civilization is a foregone conclusion. So why are conservatives defending the status quo, and compelling us to more obligation to it?

"Good Bait" is a jazz composition written by American jazz piano player and composer Tadd Dameron and by  band leader Count Basie. It was introduced in 1944 and was popular in the 1940s and 1950s.

Form
Good Bait uses the changes to "I've Got Rhythm" (Rhythm changes) transposed up by a fourth as its bridge.

Find out exactly what the groomsmen have to do on the big day.
Last week we focused on the girls. Now it's time for the guys..
This is our straightforward, practical advice for the best man and groomsmen at a wedding. Share this with your future husband, his friends and be sure to pin the post at the bottom for future reference. Now you can take comfort in the fact that your whole bridal party knows what's going on.
Sometimes, guys don't realise what a big deal it actually is to be asked to be a best man or groomsmen. One of the first questions my fiancé's friends asked him when they were asked was, "what does a groomsman actually do?" Because naturally, they all want to know what's going to make them so special!
The truth is, you're going to be both usher and supporter as you help the groom on his big day and make sure he has the best time ever. Follow these simple guidelines to get yourself off to a great start.
The best man usually acts as the groom's personal assistant. This can range from helping him with his speech to helping him decide what to pack for his honeymoon!
Work together to sort out your accommodation for groomsmen that might be travelling from out of town.
The best man usually organises the stag do, but the other groomsmen can get involved too! It's also customary that the cost of the event is divided between you. And be sure to choose something the groom would actually love to do.
Make a note of all the events leading up to the wedding and attend them. For instance, if the wedding is in a church, there will usually be a rehearsal the week before so you know where you need to stand.
The night before the wedding, make sure the groom has a relaxing evening and gets to bed at a decent time.
Make sure the groom has a great breakfast to start the biggest day of his life.
Get him to the church on time! Plus, make sure you're aware of the photographer's plans – they will usually visit where you're getting ready to get some natural shots.
Arrive at the ceremony within good time.
The most important job for groomsmen is to usher guests to their seats. Usually only immediate family have allocated seats and other people can pick and choose.
The best man is usually in charge of carrying the bride's ring, so be sure to keep it safe until vows are exchanged.
Again at the reception, usher people to their seats and direct them to the restroom etc.
Greet suppliers and offer your help carrying flowers and assisting people with transport.
Dance with the bridesmaids and especially the bride during the reception. The bride will be just as happy you're a groomsman as the groom!
The best man does usually have to make a speech. Try to make it more about the bride and groom as a couple.
Show people where they can put cards if they are only attending the evening reception.
The best man usually offers a wedding present to the bride and groom. Feel free to team up with the other groomsmen and bridesmaids for this. This way, you can get them something that will blow them away!
A fun job…decorate the getaway car!
And most importantly, enjoy yourself. This is the happiest day of your best friend's life and you're playing a key role. Have fun and embrace every minute.

RINO Senator Thad Cochran: I Grew Up Doing 'All Kinds Of Indecent Things With Animals' (Video)
Thad Cochran: I Grew Up Doing 'All Kinds Of Indecent Things With Animals' – Big Government
Sen. Thad Cochran (R-MS) provided his latest head-scratching comment in public, this time joking he engaged in illicit activities with animals as a child.
"[We'd] get back [to the Pine Belt-Hattiesburg area of Mississippi] as often as we could because it was fun – it was an adventure to be out there in the country and see what goes on," Cochran said of his childhood and how parts of his family lived in the central part of the state. "Picking up pecans, from that to all kind of indecent things with animals."
The audience laughed at that point, video published by the Jackson Clarion-Ledger shows. Cochran's facial expressions did not change, nor did his stance or demeanor. "I know some of you know what that is," he continued. "The whole point of the story is not just coming here to visit cousins and get to know aunts and uncles better, you absorb the culture and you know what's important to people here. I feel very comfortable here and have an identity with this area of the state that's different than any other."
Cochran made the speech at the Forrest General Hospital in Hattiesburg, an area of the state known as the Pine Belt where his primary challenger, conservative state Sen. Chris McDaniel, massively over performed in last Tuesday's primary.
The Clarion-Ledger's Geoff Pender described Cochran's comment as "a joke, apparently about harassing wildlife or livestock."
Cochran's campaign spokesman Jordan Russell didn't return a request for comment about specific details on what types of "indecent things" Cochran did "with animals" as a child, but Russell did brush it off to the Daily Caller. "I'll check with my political correctness department and get back to you," he told that publication.
This could hurt other Republicans, Tea Party News Network's Scottie Hughes said in an email to Breitbart News. "It's funny, politicians like Cochran would have been the first to scream foul at this type of comment," Hughes said. "They would have said he was insensitive, an embarrassment and cruel to animals. Yet do we see those like the senators who raised funds for Cochran at the NRSC this week coming out and denouncing his comments and withdrawing their support? Of course not. Maybe birds of a feather do flock together."
FreedomWorks, a Tea Party group backing McDaniel, has argued that the GOP establishment's support of Cochran in the runoff could jeopardize the entire effort to win back the majority in the U.S. Senate.
The night after McDaniel got more votes than Cochran in last Tuesday's primary, FreedomWorks president Matt Kibbe called on the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) to ask Cochran to concede the election to avoid a runoff.
"If the NRSC's mission is for the Republican Party to win in November, they should encourage Thad Cochran to concede," Kibbe said then. "Last night's primary numbers proved that Mississippians want new leadership in the Senate. Why don't we all focus our resources on defeating Democrats in November?"
In response to that statement, NRSC spokesman Brad Dayspring told Breitbart News that while the GOP establishment group agrees that its "focus is on defeating Democrats" and its "goal is winning a Republican majority," he argued that FreedomWorks' "goals are at times at odds with that."
"Differences of opinion are fine and part of the process," Dayspring said in an email at the time. "Look, last night's result was basically a statistical tie which results in a runoff. It is surprising that a 'grassroots organization' based in Washington DC seemingly wants to discount voters and the election process. Instead demanding any candidate concede, grassroots organizations typically encourage voters to participate in the process. It's weird."
The NRSC has – with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's blessing – doubled down and gone "all in" for Cochran in the runoff. McConnell held a fundraiser for Cochran at the NRSC where several senior Republican senators attended earlier this week, raising more than $800,000 for Cochran.

The Obamas Are Staying In DC; Where Will They Live?
Possibly his toughest decision post-White House.
By Kari Costas
Getty + Lambert
There's been plenty of speculation as to where President Obama and his family would live at the end of his term. Would they return to their old haunt in Chicago? Would they head to New York, where Malia is rumored to be attending school this fall? Or would they settle down in Palm Springs?
Turns out, the Obamas won't be venturing far from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in 2017. According to The Washington Post, the Commander in Chief plans to stay in the Washington area so daughter Sasha can finish high school.
While we doubt the family will end up on an episode of House Hunters anytime soon, it's safe to assume they'll look at properties in one of the leafy upper Northwest D.C. neighborhoods by Sasha's school, Sidwell Friends.
With that in mind, we've culled some of the most desirable listings in the Northwest. With Obama's net worth valued at roughly $2 to 7 million, we're assuming cost won't be much of a factor. Scroll down to view five D.C. properties befitting the POTUS and his family.
2401 Kalorama Road NW
As the oldest mansion in Washington D.C., this property is certainly fit for a former President. Built in 1754 in Massachusetts, the 6-bedroom Colonial was then moved to the affluent Kalorama neighborhood in the 1930s. 11 fireplaces means the family is well-equipped to handle D.C.'s next Snowzilla.
Price: $8.75 million
Massachusetts Avenue Heights
3120 Woodland Drive NW
Built in 1928, this 6-bedroom, 7-bathroom brick Georgian features vaulted ceilings, a gourmet kitchen and plenty of formal rooms for hosting elite guests like the Clintons, who own a home steps away on Observatory Circle.
This gated Beaux Arts estate might be a bit too opulent for the Obamas, but a second kitchen and staff quarters means ample room for the family's security detail. The 7-bedroom, 10,300-square-foot home also features a 12 seat theater that might entice Sasha to start hosting sleepovers.
Price: $12 million
3035 Chain Bridge Road NW
The appeal of this 7-bedroom 1940s home is its privacy. Surrounded by the lush Battery Kemble Park, the Italian-style estate features gorgeously landscaped grounds for some peace and quiet in the big city.
5063 Overlood Road NW
This deceptively grand home is the perfect option if Barack and Michelle want a change from D.C.'s largely Federal and Georgian-style architecture. Designed by celebrated architect Robert Gurney, this modern 6-bedroom home features floor to ceiling windows and contemporary finishings.
6035 Ramshorn Place
McLean is home to some of the government's biggest players, and while the down-to-earth Obamas may want to take a break from politics after his term, there's no denying the President would enjoy the putting green and sport court in this 15,300-square-foot home.
Price: $5.9 million
Potomac, MD
9001 Congressional Court
The suburbs have their perks — in this case, an elegant 7-bedroom estate boasts a batting cage and spa lanai, as well as a guest cottage to accommodate the family's famous friends. But we have a feeling the indoor basketball court would be the selling point for the sports-loving POTUS.

When planning for a destination wedding, remember that the location, date and travel time will determine how much you will spend. Surprisingly, your $100 dollars which can be a very small amount in your country can be worth a lot in Thailand. However, before you book for a honeymoon resort in Phuket, check the exchange rates and how far your money will stretch to hold your wedding and honeymoon in the popular tourist island.
Your $100 dollars will go very far in Thailand particularly in the island of Phuket. However, deciding on the location for your destination wedding and honeymoon is not always about money because location will dramatically affect the mood of your wedding. However, Phuket is usually crowded with tourists and you might not want a wedding at the beach. The better option is an enchanting forest backdrop, lush landscape and water features for the wedding of your dreams. All your wedding and honeymoon photographs will be spectacular and will be the envy of all your friends.
Weather is another factor when choosing the location of your destination wedding. The problem though is favorable weather correlates to peak tourism season. When there are crows of tourists, rates are higher in hotels and wedding venues. The solution is to make reservations immediately after you have decided on the date of the wedding and the location. Usually, you and your guests will be able to save money because early bookings made directly through the hotel website mean special discounts.
It is very likely that you will spend less to wed and spend your honeymoon in Phuket compared to your own country where you will be spending in dollars, pounds or Euros. Even if you factor in the airfare, hotel accommodations and other expenses it will still be cheaper because you will only invite the people closest to you.
A honeymoon retreat in Phuket is ideal for an intimate wedding and honeymoon because of the captivating surroundings and elegance of the enchanting forests. You can have a choice from charming cottages and villas in the tropical getaway that is far from the hustle and bustle of city life.


Hot on the tail of news about our London meeting on November 18 to launch the NoMAD instrument to measure implementation using Normalization Process Theory, comes the publication of our overview of systematic reviews of professional behaviour change interventions in healthcare.
An important question is why there are so many negative trials of behaviour change interventions that link beliefs and attitudes with intentions. We often see that these intentions are not translated into behaviour change, or that if they are, behaviour changes are temporary. This seems to be true across a range of important translational problems – from operationalizing guidelines and care plans through to implementing telemedicine systems.
Mark Johnson and I looked at 67 systematic reviews of professional behaviour change interventions and coded them against the constructs of NPT. We showed that interventions that are successful are more likely to be include a greater spread of the activities defined by Normalization Process Theory. In particular, our overview suggests that collective action and reflexive monitoring components are crucial to successful behaviour change interventions.

When we bought our house in Sweden in September, we knew the first thing we wanted to do was remodel the kitchen.
It had a large, freestanding fireplace that kind of blocked the door as you entered.
We knew it had to go! Let me tell you, it was one heavy dog!
There was a lovely window that let in a lot of light, but it was so big, that there was no room to put a counter under it.
And the sink and stove were right next to each other. I thought it would be nice move the sink under the window.
There was an island and two floor to ceiling cabinets on the left in this photo….
…one of which held the oven.
And on the opposite wall was a huge refrigerator and huge freezer! It was all quite cramped.
We decided to take it all out!
Right down to the bare walls.
So that's what we did!
It's amazing what you uncover in an old house, like an old doorway, layers of old wallpaper and signs of a chimney fire!
I loved looking at the old wallpapers, and tried to preserve a little of each. This is the oldest and original, from 1930 when the house was built.
This one, which has orange in it, was next. It almost looks like old linoleum.
There was this rather plain basket weave.
My color scheme for the new kitchen is white, gray and red, so imagine my delight when I found this one in those very colors!
Tearing out a kitchen is a big job–and we did it in two days–then headed back home.
Of course we were anxious to get back and start on the new kitchen, but that had to wait.
Do I see a new fabric line in the makin???
Do I see new fabrics in the future? I saw several that I would buy from you!
I SEE A TRIP TO THE DUMP IN THE FUTURE!!!


When you've been sitting on an uncomfortable bus for eight hours, arrive in a new city late at night and realize you left your newly purchased souvenirs at your last hostel (or made another inevitable travel mistake), it's pretty dang easy to get the travel blues. Getting bummed out and just wanting to feel the comforts of home during your (mostly) awesome solo adventures is part of the game and WILL make you stronger (just think about the movie Wild). Sometimes, you'll be lonely in the middle of nowhere, or too sick to go meet people at a cool hostel. You'll need to cure your solo travel loneliness, well, alone. So take a deep breath and prepare for these times by packing these eight anti-loneliness items. You'll feel close to home in no time, promise.
1. Make a feel-good favorites playlist. Blasting Beyoncé is sometimes the only option, especially for miserably long plane rides or noisy, overcrowded buses. It's incredible how much music can affect your mood and transport you back to some of your favorite memories. So before you leave for a solo adventure, take a couple of minutes to put together a playlist with some of your all-time favorite songs, complete with tons of feel-good tunes and definitely a few guilty pleasures. We won't judge you for putting "Wannabe" on that list. The Spice Girls are forever relevant.
2. Write a letter of intention to yourself. Before packing your new sundresses, sit down and write yourself a letter or a list. Include the reasons why you're traveling and who supported you in your decision. Pack this somewhere safe and take it out whenever you need to regain your confidence. Sometimes the open road toward adventure can be more like a labyrinth of emotions, so remembering your initial passion and support system in times of struggle might help to rev up your I-can-do-this attitude.
3. Pack your favorite tea. The little comforts and reminders of home mean a lot when you're on-the-go. Pack a few bags of your favorite calming tea for a really simple, yet completely calming pick-me-up. There's just something about a hot mug in your hand and subtly sweet tea leaf aromas to help soothe the soul. Most rooms have electric kettles, so put on some comfy clothes and just chill.
4. Place pics of friends and fam around your hotel or dorm bed. Sure, smartphones are perfect for storing thousands of photos, but there's nothing like having a couple of printed photos of your favorite moments or people tucked away for moments of need. The physical prints bring back a comforting nostalgia, and can be a fun way to share your story with new friends. When you're staying somewhere for an extended time, set up your photos along the window's ledge or against a mirror to make your accommodations feel a bit more familiar.
5. Break out the inspirational letters. Before you leave for your solo adventure, ask a few of your closest friends to write you a short, inspirational note. When you're feeling down, there's nothing better than breaking out the letters and having the people you love remind you of how brave, adventurous and adored you are. So, yeah, you're not asking for pure reality here, but there absolutely is truth to the praise your friends lather on you in your goodbye note, and their thoughts will get you through the times you question what the heck you're doing alone in a treehouse in Laos.
6. Splurge on nicer accommodations. Okay, so this isn't something to take with you, but a plush, clean bed in a quiet room is something material that'll definitely make you feel a whole lot better. Sometimes your body is tired after a super rough train ride, you've caught a cold or you haven't actually gotten a full night's sleep in weeks thanks to your party-loving hostel dormmates. That physical exhaustion can drag you down. So treat yo'self to a little R&R. Take a long, hot shower, throw on that fluffy robe and flip on the TV. You'll be less lonely in no time.
7. Seek out a little taste of home. Sometimes loneliness on the road isn't a lack of other people; it's missing your favorite things about daily life back home. Think about what material thing you love at home that you haven't had on the road. Red wine? Put down that $1 Sapporo for a night and indulge in a glass of red wine. Don't go a day without Oreos? Hunt them down, or get something comparable to satisfy your sweet tooth.
8. Send a postcard. Missing your friends and family will probably happen. Instead of sitting around and wishing they were there, go out and find the prettiest postcards you can. Sit at a cafe or park and write about what you've seen so far, then be sure to mail it! Taking a moment to allow yourself to miss people, but turning it into an adventure, will make the whole experience much more memorable. Plus, your postcard recipient will get a thoughtful souvenir, and that's one less refrigerator magnet you have to bring home.
What's in your anti-loneliness toolkit? Let us know how you keep your spirits up while traveling @BritandCo.


Lately I have been giving a lot of thought to organization. More specifically, the organization of my schedule or how I spend my time. The presenting problem here is that I am CONSTANTLY in a hurry and feeling overwhelmed by all that I have on my daily list. I have experimented with creating a daily schedule with time alloted for each of my daily/weekly tasks. I have considered getting up before the sun to add more hours to my day. I have even tried planning my meals for an entire month at a time (ala Simple Mom). These all felt like they might be useful tools or ways to get on top of things, but all of them add more weight to my "to do" list.
Earlier this month I started working on my New Year's goals and plans. I also began taking a five-week online class on "dreaming big" (Mondo Beyondo). I have been spending some time journaling and making lists. Pondering what I would really like to invite into my life and how to make room for those things. Sometime around the end of last week, the hum of "hurry, hurry, hurry" stopped. I began to notice that many of the things that I am hurrying to do are things that would go unnoticed (by me or anyone else) if I completely flaked on them. This realization hit me like a ton of bricks. Because I'm afraid of getting behind the tidal wave of life, I have been burning a ton of energy trying to get ahead of things that either don't need to be done or can wait for awhile. The moment that I realized what was happening, I closed my laptop and went off to do something useless and and indulgent...like reading a magazine or watching TV.
So here's the deal, I am still working on drawing all of this out of my psyche and sorting out what I really want to spend my time on. In the meantime, some things still need to get done, right? Like, I don't know, cooking and eating? That's a good one to keep on the list. Related to cooking and eating, I have gotten a few requests for meal plans. Because I'm not in full-on control freak mode right now, I'm planning my meals but only a few days in advance. Because I know lots of people out there struggle with this same thing, I'll share three things: my current "process", my meal plan for a few days (I only plan for dinners), and a resource for those who find meal planning to be (and I quote a friend here), "the bane of their existence".
My current meal planning "process"
Dig around in the pantry and fridge to come up with a list of what I have on hand. This works best if I do it the same day that I receive my CSA box so I know what fruits and veggies I have to work with.
Create a list of as many meals as I can that can be made with what we already have.
If the list has fewer than three or four meal ideas, I add a couple more simple dinners or recipes and then pick up the required ingredients at the grocery store.
I sometimes make double batches of freezable meals (e.g. lasagna, enchiladas, etc.) so that I have an easy meal waiting for a busy night. I also freeze extra sauce or other ingredients that can be repurposed for another meal.
Thursday: Sunshine veggie burgers with baked sweet potato "fries"
A good friend of mine owns a meal planning company. She offers a few different plans that are as affordable as $14.95 for an entire year. No matter where you live or what your budget, she can help!
What's next today? I might start a load of laundry...or maybe I'll just kick my feet up and have a cookie.

Kath Merrifield chosen as new director of UME
Mon, 26th September 2011
The Rev. Kath Merrifield, minister at the Brighton-Kogarah Uniting Church, has been chosen by the Synod of New South Wales and the ACT as the new director of Uniting Mission and Education (UME).
Chairperson of the Nominating Committee, the Rev. Karyn Burchell-Thomas, said Ms Merrifield was supremely qualified for the position and would bring a fresh, but not uninformed, understanding of the Synod to her new role.
"We believe Kath will fulfil the role with skill and grace, responding to the call of Christ, managing the dynamics of change, moulding the people together with a sense of vision and enthusiasm that takes the equipping, the education of the people of God for mission into new and exciting expression; a prophetic presence, grounded in reality, inspired by God."
Ms Merrifield holds a Bachelor of Science from the Australian National University (ANU), a Bachelor of Laws (Hons) with the ANU and a Bachelor of Theology with United Theological College.
Prior to being in ministry she was on the personal staff of Justice Brennan in the High Court of Australia and a legal advisor in the Commonwealth Attorney-General's Department.
She also worked for TEAR Australia and was responsible for 60 families living in ten countries.
Ms Burchell-Thomas said Ms Merrifield was cool under pressure and had been responsible for evacuating 30 people from Cambodia during a violent coup, caring for them while in Thailand and resettling them back into Cambodia when things had settled down.
Her work in Asia had opened her eyes to poverty and its causes and sparked her conviction that people's needs are to be attended to holistically and that the church should willingly embrace the hard edges of life.
In her application for the position, Ms Merrifield wrote, "I am passionate about the Uniting Church and its unique approach to being Church in Australia today. I love the way the church is prepared to wrestle with the challenges of the changing shape of mission and the place of the church within the community.
"The Uniting Church occupies a very special place in the life of the community, a space which can be claimed and enhanced with a strong approach to education and creative approaches to ministry and mission."

Why I'm proud of Red magazine
Editor-in-Chief Sarah Bailey reflects on 18 years of Red magazine
The day I walked into my Editor-in-Chief's office at Red will always be one of the highlights of my professional career.
As I said in my first Editor's letter I was already a Lifer. I'd read the magazine since its first issue (and written for it too, see what my assistant Lucia found in the vaults); and arguably a couple of mortgages and maternity leaves, crises, highs and everything-in-betweens later, the brand had never resonated more powerfully for me.
Here was a title that really touched women's lives with its smart, funny, empathetic writing and sumptuous visuals. I'd scaled some giddy heights as a journalist - editing Elle magazine, working with Glenda Bailey on Bazaar in New York - but the connection which Red had, and continues to have, with its community of readers and online users was incredibly potent and exciting. I've said this before, but it reminded me of the intimate and passionately-engaged dialogue we had with our readers when I was working on teen mags in the very glory days of youth publishing: it mattered.
What continues to make me proud? Our Grown-Up Intern programme - in place before I got on board - but good God how prescient and smart. Everything Red does to empower women returners and mid-life career reinventions fills me with pride.
I'm beamingly proud of the Teen Mentoring project of which this blog is just a tiny part, because the emotional health and futures of our teenage girls should matter to every woman. (And frankly I expect to learn masses from our teenage contributors myself).
I'm still very proud of the first cover we shot on my watch - Sofia Coppola - how pleasing it was to celebrate a woman who was neither a model, nor an actress on our front cover.
I am proud of all our editorial coups and curveballs: Loo Brearley on the road with Miriam and Nick, Gillian Anderson and Jamie Dornan's electric shoot together, Jamie and Jools Oliver's first ever joint cover, Red's Happiness Day making the front page of The Huffington Post... Too many moments to mention, though Red asking David Cameron if he was a feminist on his campaign train was probably the headiest journalistically.
Mainly I'm wildly proud of Red's editorial team as I never cease to learn from the copy they produce as I pour over it in my favourite reading chair in my office. So much has changed since the first issue of Red hit the shelves in the boom days of Blair's Britain and, for sure, publishing can feel like a high wire act at times, but it is quite spectacular to work on content that can make me laugh and cry and want to change the world, sometimes all in the space of the day.

Cuba Hotel Bombings
News articles related to Luis Posada Carriles since 1997
The Miami Herald, August 14, 1997, "Cuba Bombs Stir a Wild Guessing Game" by Juan O. Tamayo.
Two KGB-trained Cuban super-soldiers who turned against Castro. A CIA-trained exile bomber. Young and secretive malcontents in Havana's security forces. Or a highly visible group of aged exiles in Miami.
Those are some of the suspects named in stories, circulating on both sides of the Florida Straits, on those possibly responsible for a recent spate of bombing attacks on Cuban tourism.
Murmurs of more bombings, everywhere from theaters to playgrounds, emanate daily from Cuba, almost always impossible to confirm yet adding to the deep anxiety permeating Havana and Miami these days.
Few details are publicly available on the eight bombs confirmed since April 12:
Two exploded and one was disarmed in Havana's Melia Cohiba Hotel; three exploded at the Nacional and Capri Hotels and an unidentified hotel in the beach resort of Varadero; and two went off in Bahamas and Mexico City, in front of two Cuban government-owned travel agencies.
The last bomb at the Cohiba on Aug. 3, plus the Nacional, Capri, Varadero and Mexico City bombings were all low-power blasts, apparently lacking shrapnel and designed to terrify rather than to wound or destroy. Only three slight injuries have been confirmed in all the bombings.
But the first Cohiba bomb on April 12 and the Nassau blast Aug. 3 were more powerful, forcing the hotel to close its damaged discotheque for two weeks and blowing a basketball-sized hole in the concrete floor of the Havanatur office.
Cuban security officials have told visitors the first Cohiba bomb was made of C-4, a powerful plastic explosive developed for the U.S. military but sold around the world. There's no word on the type of explosive used in the other blasts.
Trigger mechanisms also are unknown, though it's presumed they involve timers since the bombers otherwise would have been forced to light fuses in plain sight in hotel lobbies.
Three of the bombs exploded on Saturdays the 12th of the month, in April and July.
Amid such paltry evidence, it's not surprising that speculation on who's behind the blasts has ranged from the more reasonable suspects in Havana and Miami to the intriguingly wild.
One version told by people close to Cuba's ruling hierarchy involves two Cuban army officers, KGB-trained and highly decorated veterans of the Angola war, who grew disenchanted with President Fidel Castro.
One was described as a lieutenant colonel in his early 50s, an expert on explosives and booby traps. The other was described as a captain in his mid-40s who has been on several foreign intelligence missions.
They are said to have gone underground in October -- at the same time as an unreported theft of explosives in central Matanzas province -- to wage a bombing campaign against the Castro government.
Skeptics say that if such renegades exist, they probably would go after bigger targets, such as government ministries or Castro himself, rather than Cuba's tourism industry.
Another version has Castro ordering the bombs as an excuse to cancel Pope John Paul II's visit to Cuba in January. Skeptics say Castro would be unlikely to endanger his profitable tourism industry just to block the pontiff's visit.
A third version has the bombs as the work of Luis Posada Carriles, a Cuban exile trained by the CIA in explosives and security but who is now in his 60s and has seldom been seen in public in the past decade.
Jailed in Venezuela but never convicted for the 1976 terrorist bombing of a Cuban jetliner in which 73 people died, Posada escaped in 1985 and was reported to have helped Nicaragua's anti-Sandinista guerrillas.
Honduran human rights activists blame him for 41 small bombs set off by the so-called Central American Solidarity Movement in Honduras in 1995 to protest President Carlos Roberto Reina's plans to reduce the size of the armed forces.
Skeptics say it would be difficult for Posada, who left Cuba soon after Castro came to power in 1959, to operate on the island with as much mobility and impunity as the bombers appear to have enjoyed.
Three groups have reportedly claimed responsibility for the bombings -- though none is considered credible -- and Cuba has offered no evidence to support its charge that the people and supplies used in bombings ``came from the United States.''
One claim, for the July 12 bombs at the Nacional and Capri, came from the previously unknown Internal Resistance Army, which described itself as a group of young anti-Castro renegades in the army and security forces.
The second came in a note delivered Wednesday to El Nuevo Herald in which a group calling itself Comandos Mambises claimed responsibility for the Cohiba bombs and the bombing of Havanatur in the Bahamas.
"The Comandos Mambises not only combat the [Castro] tyranny on its own ground but also have gone abroad,'' the note said.
The third came from Alpha 66, a Miami-based group that advocates armed struggle against Castro. Alpha first reported that one of its "cells'' inside Cuba had claimed the Nacional and Capri bombs, but later backed down, saying it had provided only ``the broad intellectual inspiration'' for the bombers.
Two people are known to be jailed in Havana in connection with the bombings, though the Cuban government has declined to comment.
One is a Cuban woman from Hialeah arrested in early May, while visiting a brother, after police claimed they had found traces of C-4 within the weaving of her macrame handbag. The other is a man, described only as being neither a U.S. citizen nor of Cuban descent.

Wildfires poison public health nationwide
Smoke can cause asthma, raise cancer risk
By Matt Vasilogambros, Stateline.org

As wildfires continue to burn in parts of the United States, state public health officials and experts are increasingly concerned about residents' chronic exposure to toxin-filled smoke.
This year has seen the most wildfires of the past decade, with more than 56,000 fires burning nearly 7 million acres nationwide, according to the National Interagency Fire Center. While the total area burned is less than in some recent years, heavy smoke has still blanketed countless communities throughout the country.
Climate change is causing more frequent and severe wildfires, harming Americans' health, pointed out Dr. Lisa Patel, deputy executive director at the Medical Society Consortium on Climate and Health, which raises awareness about the health effects of climate change.
"The data we have is very scary," she said. "We are living through a natural experiment right now — we've never had fires this frequently."
Patel sees the effects of wildfires in her work as a practicing pediatrician at Stanford Medicine Children's Health, treating more women and underweight and premature infants at the neonatal intensive care unit when wildfires rage in Northern California.
As researchers focus on the public health impact of wildfire smoke, state health and environmental officials across the country have had to issue more air quality notices and provide guidance and shelter for residents struggling during periods of heavy wildfire smoke. And as experts have found, this issue isn't isolated to the West Coast — it hurts more residents in the Eastern U.S.
Studies show that chronic exposure to wildfire smoke can cause asthma and pneumonia, and increase the risk for lung cancer, stroke, heart failure and sudden death. The very old and very young are most vulnerable. Particulates in wildfire smoke are 10 times as harmful to children's respiratory health as other air pollutants, according to a study in Pediatrics last year.
What concerns experts is particulate matter in the air smaller than 2.5 microns across; there are around 25,000 microns in an inch. People inhale these microscopic bits, which then can embed deep in their lungs, irritating the lining and inflaming tissue. The particles are small enough to get into a person's bloodstream, which can lead to other short- and long-term health effects.
Particulates in wildfire smoke are even hindering national progress on reducing air pollution, after decades of improvement.
The federal Clean Air Act has substantially decreased the level of toxic particles from industrial and automotive pollution across the country since 1970, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes. But air pollution is expected to worsen in parts of the West because of wildfires, some researchers have found. A United Nations report earlier this year warned of a "global wildfire crisis," saying the probability of catastrophic wildfires could increase 57 percent by the end of the century.
Researchers are trying to better understand how more frequent wildfires affect human biology.
Keith Bein, associate professional researcher at the University of California, Davis, created a rapid response mobile research unit in 2017 that he deploys when there are fires around the state. He's like a storm chaser but for wildfires.
With his mobile unit, Bein can measure particulate matter in the air, take samples back to his lab and then determine their toxicology and chemical compositions. When near these fires, he said, the smoke is so bad that it feels like there's no escaping it.
"The smoke rolls in, and you get that sinking feeling all over again," he said.
Massive wildfires that tear through communities are becoming more common. The fires aren't just burning trees but also synthetic materials in homes. And with repeated exposure to different particulates, health risks are more pronounced and can evolve into chronic conditions, Bein said.
Researchers are just beginning to understand how more frequent wildfires in residential areas impact human health, he added.
"It's happening more frequently every summer," he said. "The length of the fires is growing. The public exposure to the smoke is also growing. Once-in-a-lifetime events are happening every summer. This is a different kind of exposure."
In 2020, a study in Environment International found that winter influenza seasons in Montana were four to five times worse after bad wildfire seasons, which typically last from July until September. The findings shocked study lead author Erin Landguth, an associate professor at the University of Montana.
"We know that hospitalizations for asthma and other respiratory conditions spike within days or weeks of wildfires," she said. "The thought that this could potentially lead to effects later and how that can affect our immune system is really scary."
Landguth is currently expanding her study to all Western states. She expects to find a similar trend throughout the Mountain West and Pacific Northwest. Monsoon season in Arizona and New Mexico may disrupt the trend there, she said, while air pollution is already so bad in California from smog and other pollutants that it might be difficult to pinpoint how wildfires are harming human health.
But wildfires are not just in the West, nor is their health impact geographically isolated. Some fires burn so intensely at such high temperatures that smoke rises into the atmosphere, where strong winds can carry the smoke long distances.
This was glaringly apparent in 2021 when the sun glowed red, and the sky hazed over New York City and throughout the Northeast, as smoke drifted from massive wildfires in California, Oregon and other Western states.
That smoke is hurting the health of more people in the Eastern U.S. than it is in the West, said Katelyn O'Dell, a postdoctoral research scientist at George Washington University, who released that finding in a study in GeoHealth in 2021. Wildfire smoke contributed to more asthma-related deaths and hospital visits in Eastern communities than those in the West, she and other researchers found, in part because of higher population density.
The smoke hitting the Eastern U.S. doesn't just come from the West; there are wildfires and prescribed burns throughout the country, said O'Dell.
"It's sometimes easy to feel distant from fires and their impacts when you're far from the flames of these large Western wildfires that are in the news," she said. "But wildfires impact the health of the U.S."
The next orange sunset people enjoy should be a moment to check an air quality mobile app, she said.
In Minnesota, the state has issued 46 air quality alerts since 2015, according to the state's Pollution Control Agency. Of those, 34 were due to wildfire smoke, and 26 of those were issued last year.
That took state officials by surprise, said Kathy Norlien, a research scientist at the Minnesota Department of Health. The wildfire smoke risk is not just coming from the plumes that drift from the West Coast and Canada, but also from wildfires in the Boundary Waters — a lake-filled region in the northern stretches of the state. She expects the problem to worsen in the coming years.
"At this point, we're planning for the worst-case scenario," she said. "We have not had the extent that the Western states have had. But with climate change and concern over drought and the dry conditions, planning is of the utmost importance."
She meets regularly with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and other state officials about how to get the message to state residents about the increasing wildfire risk to public health, encouraging residents to sign up for air quality alerts. State officials also have established larger community centers and buildings as safe air shelters.
The public plays an enormous role in both preventing (nearly 90 percent of wildfires are caused by humans, according to U.S. governmental data) and adapting to wildfires, many experts say.

For people living in fire-prone areas, there are nonflammable building materials for new homes and indoor air purifiers and upgraded HVAC systems. But these solutions may be too costly for some families, said Patel, of Stanford Medicine.
She counsels families about how to affordably stay safe during wildfire season, encouraging the use of N95 and KN95 masks, which were pivotal in combating the spread of the coronavirus. She also shares designs for do-it-yourself air filtration systems.
But she emphasized that wildfires will continue to rage across the country and cause adverse health effects unless climate change is reined in through serious public policy. Until then, climate change will continue to be the biggest threat to public health, she said.
"Summer used to be a time I'd look forward to," she said, "but now I look at it with dread with the heat and wildfires."

India vs Australia: Team India report card for Sydney ODI – Rohit shines, Dhawan flops – Hindustan Times
January 14, 2019 - by australia - Leave a Comment
Australia fended off an explosive century from Rohit Sharma to post a morale-boosting 34-run victory over India in the first one-day international at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Saturday. The Australians made 288 for five off their 50 overs after winning the toss and restricted India to 254 for nine.
Let's take a look at how Indian players fared in this blockbuster clash at the iconic SCG –
Shikhar Dhawan – Rating: 1/10, Verdict: Very Poor
Opener Shikhar Dhawan got off to the worst start possible in his first match in 2019 as he was dismissed for a 0 duck on the first ball that he faced. The one point that he gets is for turning up for the game at the iconic SCG. The southpaw will have to put his best foot forward in the remaining two ODIs.
Rohit Sharma – Rating: 9/10, Verdict: Very good
Vice-captain Rohit Sharma continued his glorious run of form Down Under in white-ball cricket and smashed a stunning 133 to keep India in the chase for most parts of the innings. Rohit slammed his 22nd ODI ton also became the first Indian score five ODI centuries in Australia. Had Rohit managed to push India over the line, he would have gotten a perfect ten for his excellent innings under pressure.

Virat Kohli – Rating: 2/10, Verdict: Poor
India skipper Virat Kohli didn't live up to the expectations and was dismissed cheaply by Jhye Richardson for just 3 . Kohli is regarded as the chase master in ODIs but it wasn't his day and following his dismissal, the hosts knew they had won half the battle. In the field, Kohli marshaled his troops well and made some smart bowling changes to restrict Australia to a sub-par score.
Ambati Rayudu – Rating: 1/10, Verdict: Very Poor
In the last few matches, Ambati Rayudu has shown that he remains India's best bet at number four but he was way off the mark on Saturday. Rayudu face just two balls and was dismissed for a duck by Richardson and was one of the batsmen responsible for India tottering at 4/3.
MS Dhoni – Rating: 6/10, Verdict: Good
MS Dhoni came to bat up the order following a dreadful collapse and showed why he still remains an important part of the ODI setup. He put on a 137-run stand with Rohit and batted India out of trouble. Dhoni struck a timely half-century and also in the process also completed his 10,000 ODI runs. But he couldn't sustain his concentration for long and after he was dismissed for 51, Australia took control of the match once again.

Dinesh Karthik – Rating: 2/10, Verdict: Poor
The stage was set for Dinesh Karthik to put on a match-winning performance for the team and stake a claim for a seat on the plane to England. But all he could muster was 12 runs before getting castled by Jhye Richardson. With Dhoni behind the stumps and Rishabh Pant lurking around the corner, Karthik need to up his game in the remaining two ODIs.
Ravindra Jadeja: Rating: 4/10, Verdict: Average
All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja had a decent game with the ball but with the bat, he was hardly impressive. Jadeja finished the match with 1/48 and 8 runs respectively . The only reason Jadeja was in the side was because of Hardik Pandya's suspension but he needs to do more in order to give selection headache to the team management.
Kuldeep Yadav: Rating: 7/10, Verdict: Good
Once again, Kuldeep Yadav was the pick of the Indian bowlers as he ended with figures of 2/54. Kuldeep managed to get rid of dangermen — Alex Carey and Shaun Marsh — both of whom looked good in the middle. While Kuldeep was a tad expensive as he gave runs at more than five per over, his two wickets played a pivotal role in restricting the Aussies.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar: Rating: 7/10, Verdict: Good
Fast-bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar had a good match, both with ball and bat but he still ended up to be on the losing side. Bhuvi scalped two crucial wickets but game away 66 runs and proved to be a tab expensive. While during the Indian chase, the right-hander hit four boundaries and remained not-out to give some respectability to the India score as the match was effectively lost after Rohit's dismissal.
Mohammed Shami: Rating: 5/10, Verdict: Average
Fast-bowler Mohammed Shami didn't have a bad game as he was most economical India bowler. But what goes against him is that he remained wicket-less in the 10 overs he bowled in the match. Shami needs to do more considering he remains India's most experience bowler in the current squad.
Also Read: Rohit Sharma's ton goes in vain as hosts register historic win at SCG
Khaleel Ahmed: Rating: 3/10, Verdict: Poor
Young left-arm pacer Khaleel Ahmed had a torrid time in the middle as he was taken for runs by the Aussie batsmen. Khaleel was at his best and it showed in his bowling and the hosts gleefully raked in the runs off his bowling. Khaleel didn't even complete his full quota of 10 overs as in 8 overs, he had given away 55 runs at an economy rate of 6.8.

The prohibition saw scores of people secretly distilling moonshine but several countries now allow alcoholic beverages distillation at home so you as well should find professional help when building a moonshine still. ANY safe and long-lasting moonshine still will reward you with continuous minute droplets of heady alcohol that may then be filtered and flavored straight into your preferred alcoholic drink at significantly decreased rates.
There are numerous paths that may be taken to create your home distilling equipment in the form of a functional still. The internet can truly prove to be a rich source of information as well as help you to make ethanol in your own home by giving you all required assistance right from moonshine still plans to complete stills in kit style that can assist you to produce moonshine as soon as you desire. You will have to verify initially if laws in your nation permit home distillation just before taking another step in the direction of generating incredible alcohols or spirits at home. You can then start to hone in on moonshine still plans that will help to create an efficient still with all protection qualities integrated into the very design of the still.
You will have to choose between copper and stainless steel as your material of preference prior to building a moonshine still. Whilst any copper still exudes that traditional as well as regal appearance whilst also conducting heat very quickly, it's really a serious pain to maintain in the longer run since strong alcohols can easily corrode this kind of attractive metal. While stainless steel provides a commercial feel to the still and also conducts heat on a slower rate, it really is virtually maintenance free as well as corrosion free and can certainly last for years on end when designed with the right technical plans. Your home ethanol generation can even be carried out using a basic pot distillation still which is connected to the ethanol distillation column built with copper mesh or ceramic raschig rings to avoid pollutants from transferring upwards into the attached tube that is employed to carry ethanol vapors into the condensation apparatus.
A pot distillation still employing a copper container or perhaps a stainless steel milk can will be your most dependable and cheapest bet while building a moonshine still if you are a complete newbie in the world of alcohol distillation. You'll be able to construct any matching column to fit over the pot or can and then connect a copper or perhaps stainless steel tubing which coils at the other end while getting cooled down using running water through a water jacket or perhaps with cold air. This would result in the actual vapors to cool off and condense back to stronger liquid ethanol that may then become accumulated in a collection vessel situated on the other end of the coiled tubing. You may need to weld, solder, and also braze the copper or stainless steel still, and should always be technically capable to perform these procedures so as to put together a completely secure still that will last for many years on end. In case, on the other hand, you are panic stricken merely soon after looking at the actual moonshine still blueprints, then opting for a readymade still that is small and easy to maintain ought to be your easy strategy to distillation of alcoholic beverages in your own home in a totally safe and sound and competent manner.
Making moonshine in your own home can simply turn out to be an enjoyable and productive hobby since you can now generate wonderful alcohol based drinks for a fraction of the cost that you pay in liquor stores. However, the heady key to success is based on constructing a moonshine still that is rugged, safe, efficient, and also appears like a professional still in order to improve your own reputation as a master distiller during the coming nights.
