New angel tax exemption notified
in Business Law
The Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPI), on 19 February 2019, notified revised conditions to claim exemption from tax under phase fifty-six (2)(vii) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (ITA). Section 56(2)(vii) of the ITA levies a tax (angel tax) on percentage top-class acquired by way of personal corporations for the difficulty of shares at a price greater than the truthful market fee of the stocks, as computed for tax purposes.
As in step with the 19 February notification, the exemption from angel tax can be available to a startup: (a) which has been diagnosed by using the DPI; (b) whose combination paid-up share capital and proportion top rate after difficulty or proposed problem (apart from investment by way of non-citizens, assignment capital organizations and challenge capital budget, and unique businesses) does not exceed ₹250 million (US$3.Five million); and (c) which has now not invested in any specified assets (together with a constructing or land used for purposes other than its business or for renting or held as a inventory in the alternate, loans, and advances other than those prolonged inside the everyday direction of the business, capital contribution to every other entity, shares and securities, and many others.).
For the functions of the notification, an entity shall be considered as a startup: (i) for as much as a period of 10 years from its date of incorporation or registration, if it's far incorporated as a personal constrained business enterprise or registered as a restrained legal responsibility partnership in India; (ii) if its turnover for any of the economic years because incorporation or registration has no longer exceeded `1 billion; (iii) if it's miles working toward innovation, improvement or development of merchandise or processes or offerings, or if it's far a scalable enterprise model with the excessive ability for employment technology or wealth creation; and (iv) furnished it turned into not shaped by way of the splitting up or reconstruction of a present business.
An eligible entity wishing to attain recognition as a startup from DPI ought to make a web utility. The application must be observed with the aid of a duplicate of the entity's certificate of incorporation or registration (as the case may be), together with a write up about the nature of its business, how it's far operating closer to innovation, improvement, or improvement of merchandise or tactics or offerings, or its scalability in phrases of employment technology or wealth advent. After calling for such documents or facts and making such inquiries as it may deem healthy, the DPI might recognize the eligible entity or reject the utility using imparting reasons.
The exemption shall follow from the date of incorporation of the startup, regardless of the dates on which stocks are issued by it, except for the stocks issued in recognition of which an addition underneath phase 56(2)(vii) of the ITA has been made in an evacuation order earlier than 19 February 2019. The exemption will be revoked with retrospective impact if the startup invests in any designated belongings before the quiet of 7 years (starting from the give up of the modern-day financial 12 months), wherein stocks are issued at a top rate. In addition to the above, the notification also lays down the technique for obtaining a certificate for phase eighty-IAC of the ITA, which offers a 100% tax vacation for 3 consecutive evaluation years for licensed startups deriving profits from eligible corporations.

Chaudhury, Srabanti and Kou, SC and Cherayil, Binny J (2007) Model of Fluorescence Intermittency in Single Enzymes. In: Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 111 (9). pp. 2377-2384.
The intermittent emission of fluorescent light from single enzymes, quantum dots, and other nanoscale systems is often characterized by statistical correlations in the emitted signal. A one-dimensional model of such correlations in enzymes, based on a model of protein conformational fluctuations developed by Kou and Xie (Phys. Rev. Lett. 2004, 93, 180603), is formulated in the present paper in terms of the dynamics of a particle moving stochastically between "on" and "off" states under the action of fractional Gaussian noise. The model yields predictions for the short and long time behavior of the following quantities: the time correlation function, C(t), of the fluctuations of the signal intensity, the distribution, f(t), of time intervals between intensity fluctuations, and the Mandel parameter, Q(t), describing the extent of bunching or anti-bunching in the signal. At short times, C(t) and f(t) are found to decay exponentially, while, at long times, they are found to decay as power laws, the exponents being functions solely of the nature of the temporal correlations in the noise. The results are in good qualitative agreement with results from single-molecule experiments on fluorescence intermittency in the enzyme cholesterol oxidase carried out by Xie and co-workers (Science 1998, 282, 1877). The Mandel parameter, Q(t), for this model is positive at short and long times, indicating super-Poisson statistics in these limits, consistent with bunching of the fluorescent signal.


No long after updating the Q version, it is time for another QX segment to get the refreshments. The future QX is prepared to beat its rivals in 2018 auto competition. There must be a long way to develop the crossover since the company plans to add up the new high-tech elements and better power plant. To attract the potential customers, it is most likely that the 2018 Infiniti QX70 will be beautified with the new design styling. While waiting the official debut in market, the following illustrations are trying to uncover the detailed changes and improvements to the future vehicle.
The new outlook of 2018 Infiniti QX70 SUV will keep maintaining its luxurious and aggressive appearance. Much motivated to present the powerful performance and better fuel efficiency, the body structure is going to be built up with the lightweight materials. The details on the new components are still not obvious for now but hopefully the coming news will make it clearer.
Moving towards the interior, some revisions in the cabin have been prepared. Several additional systems and gadgets for the entertainment and infotainment systems as well as the premium upholstery materials will be enhanced. Standards components including climate control, heated seats and touchscreen display are also installed.
The engine unit of a 3.7 liter V6 has been selected as the main power source for the SUV. As rumored, the new QX70 might be also available in hybrid option. The current engine could produce the power output at approximately 350 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque. The engineer will consider pairing the engine with a 6-speed automatic transmission as powering the front or all wheels. Having a better fuel efficiency, the 2018 Infiniti QX70 could run at 21 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway.
The 2018 Infiniti QX70 is now undergoing the development process. Hence, we might see the QX70 SUV at the end of 2017 and be ready for the dealerships by the early of 2018. According to the latest appraisal, the base price of the QX70 starts at $47,000 and the all-wheel versions will be valued at around $48,500.

Aspen Journalism honored with 11 awards in 2021 Society of Professional Journalists contest
Wide range of work recognized including four first place awards
by Aspen Journalism Staff May 4, 2021 June 9, 2021
Aspen Journalism won 11 awards in 10 categories, including first place honors for best beat reporting and best extended coverage, in the Society of Professional Journalists' 2021 Top of the Rockies contest.
Competing in the small newsroom category with entrants from Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico and Utah, and judged by journalists from SPJ's Oregon and Washington chapters, Aspen Journalism's awards covered a broad range of topics and formats. The awards included four first place honors, four second place honors and three for third place.
"It's an honor to have so much of our work recognized," said Aspen Journalism Executive Director Brent Gardner-Smith. "I'm proud of the list of journalists who were recognized, and especially proud that Heather Sackett won three first-place awards for her reporting on our Water Desk. The recognition shows that our nonprofit journalism model can produce truly outstanding reporting, and of course, none of it would occur without the ongoing support of our donors and funders, so we also consider these awards to be in their honor."
The following is a complete list of Aspen Journalism's recognitions from the contest, which included about 25 other newsrooms with five or fewer employees, according to contest administrators. Aspen Journalism is staffed by two full-time journalists, and works with numerous freelance reporters roughly equivalent to one additional full-time journalist.
FIRST PLACE AWARDS
1st Place Beat Reporting
Award winning beat reporting: The Water Desk, covering the upper Colorado River basin.
Water Desk Editor and Managing Editor of Aspen Journalism Heather Sackett is honored in this category for a group of more than six stories from one reporter on a particular beat. With Sackett's 42 water desk stories written in 2020, complemented by another 23 from freelance reporters, we had plenty to choose from in submitting our application. We submitted six stories for consideration covering a range of issues including demand management, the Grizzly Creek Fire's impact on downstream endangered fish and a ballot question raising taxes to fund the Colorado River District.
"Deeply researched, full of clarity, the author displays a knowledge and ownership of their beat," contest judges wrote in the award notification.
The Aspen Journalism Water Desk focuses on water management in the Roaring Fork and Colorado river basins and the stories are published on our website and by newspapers covering headwaters communities including The Aspen Times, Glenwood Springs Post Independent, Vail Daily, Steamboat Pilot & Today, Summit Daily News, Craig Press and the Sky-Hi News in Granby.
1st Place Extended Coverage
Award winning series: Quarry operators near Marble push aside creek, violate federal law
A quarry operator near Marble rerouted a high-mountain creek to fill in the natural stream channel in order to build a new road, and did so without securing the proper permit from the Army Corps of Engineers, in violation of the federal Clean Water Act. Water Desk Editor Heather Sackett broke the story, which came to light after the same operator in October 2019 spilled some 5,500 gallons of diesel fuel out of unsecured tanks near the path of that new road. While the 1,500-foot diversion around a ridge may have spared Yule Creek and the Crystal River from the impact of the spill, concerned citizens are urging the Army Corp to require serious compensatory mitigation for the damage done by moving the creek. Sackett wrote five stories about the issue in 2020, following the determination that a violation of federal law occurred and the resulting fallout, which continues to make headlines in 2021.
Again, the judges: "True ownership of a topic, explored over and over again with each new development is on excellent display in this series."
1st Place Legal News
Award winning series: Water court fight over the need for White River storage project
Aspen Journalism submitted four stories from Water Desk Editor Heather Sackett's coverage of a proposed dam and reservoir that would store water from the White River.
"A comprehensive and thorough look at water rights through the lens of a proposed White River storage reservoir. The reporter made what could be a dry topic an interesting read," noted the judges.
Coverage included the news from the beginning of the year that state engineers had serious questions about the proposal, followed up by a report in October that the case was headed to a water court trial. Through an open records act request, Sackett obtained deposition transcripts laying out the record for the court and just as the year was coming to a close, she covered a critical ruling that later forced the parties to come to a settlement, which granted water rights for the reservoir. The stories were published by The Aspen Times, Steamboat Pilot & Today, Vail Daily, Craig Press and Rio Blanco Herald Times.
1st Place Information Graphic
Award winning story: Western Colorado water purchases stir up worries about the future of farming
Aspen Journalism Water Desk Editor Heather Sackett and Luke Runyon, who covers the Colorado River basin for northern Colorado public radio station KUNC, published an investigation in May into a New York-based hedge fund's purchases of a large amount of agricultural land in the Grand Valley. They found that Water Asset Management, which describes itself as involved in water investments that "solve quality and availability issues," had spent $16.6 million buying up 17 parcels encompassing 2,222 acres of irrigated agricultural land in the communities of Fruita, Loma and Mack, west of Grand Junction. The graphic, created in collaboration with the reporters on the story by Caitlin Ketel, a former public radio journalist with expertise in GIS mapping, identified each parcel on a map, included photos of the properties and linked to information about each sale. This interactive graphic used information from public property records and each parcel was photographed by freelance photographer Bethany Blitz.
"This excellent interactive graphic provides essential context and complements the story it is part of quite well," the judges wrote.
The story was part of a series on water investment in the West, produced by KUNC, KJZZ in Arizona, The Nevada Independent and Aspen Journalism.
SECOND PLACE AWARDS
2nd Place Pandemic Reporting
Award winning story: Nonresident COVID-19 cases are a significant part of virus' footprint in Pitkin County
This story, by Aspen Journalism Editor Curtis Wackerle and data journalist Laurine Lassalle, presented the most detailed early local reporting on how many people tested positive in Pitkin County for COVID-19 who were not county residents. The project, which relied on compiling data from public records requests and comparing already-available case count data, played a role in Pitkin County increasing public disclosure of so-called out-of-jurisdiction cases. It was also published by The Aspen Times.
2nd Place Agriculture or Environment News
Award winning story: Study finds small number of jobs lost under demand-management program
Water Desk Editor Heather Sackett covered an important aspect of the demand management debate, which is what impact temporarily fallowing fields in agricultural communities in order to send more water to Lake Powell would have on employment. While some jobs connected to agricultural work would be lost, the payments to water rights holders would add jobs in other sectors of the economy. Some water managers say negative impacts could be greater if these payments are given to absentee, out-of-state owner-operators because the money won't stay in the Western Slope's agricultural communities.
The story ran in The Aspen Times and Steamboat Pilot & Today.
2nd Place Agriculture or Environment Feature
Award winning story: How a high-elevation irrigation study in Kremmling could help Colorado avoid future water shortages
Freelancer Sarah Tory — also a High County News correspondent — wrote this piece about a Grand County rancher involved in a demonstration project to study the impacts of various water-saving strategies. The results of the study could help the state of Colorado figure out whether it should implement a demand management program, which would pay irrigators to leave water in the river to send to Lake Powell.
The story ran in The Aspen Times and the Sky-Hi News.
Aspen Journalism also won third place in the Agriculture or Environment Feature category for another story (see below).
2nd Place Feature Photography/Videography
Award winning story: Big annoyed mountain lion in tree, from below
Elizabeth Stewart-Severy, who at the time was the editor of Aspen Journalism's Connie Harvey Environment Desk, took this photo of a mountain lion in a tree, as part of her reporting on a story — which also won an SPJ award — about expanded mountain lion hunting near Aspen.
THIRD PLACE AWARDS
3rd Place Enterprise Reporting
This story, with reporting by Heather Sackett, Luke Runyon and Brent Gardner-Smith, required lots of old-fashioned shoe-leather: multiple trips to the Grand Valley, knocking on doors, tracking down and cold-calling potential sources and poring over public records. The work turned up that New York private equity firm Water Asset Management had spent $16.6 million buying up 17 parcels encompassing 2,222 acres of irrigated agricultural land in the communities of Fruita, Loma and Mack, west of Grand Junction. These facts were the backbone around which the rest of the story was built.
3rd Place Politics Feature
Award winning story: Boebert, Mitsch Bush dueling to wrest the reins of CD3 race amid COVID-19
Freelancer M. John Fayhee spent six weeks following the campaigns of Lauren Boebert and Diane Mitsch Bush in the the fall of 2020, as they were competing for votes to represent the 3rd Congressional District. He authored a profile of the race full of context and perspective from political insiders across the vast district spanning the Western Slope. The story was published in partnership with Aspen Daily News.
3rd Place Agriculture or Environment Feature
Award winning story: Mountain-lion hunting expands near Aspen
Elizabeth Stewart-Severy, who at the time was the editor of Aspen Journalism's Connie Harvey Environment Desk, joined an early morning hunt near Woody Creek to document the opening of new terrain to mountain lion hunting. The story was printed in The Aspen Times and an audio version aired on Aspen Public Radio.

Note: The Roundhouse is closed. But chef Luke Dale Roberts has announced that he's opening up something new called Salsify in this spot in October 2018.
The Roundhouse Restaurant commands first prize for position, a haven in the greenery of Table Mountain above busy Camps Bay, with elevated views that stop you in your tracks. In the 1800s Lord Charles Somerset used the building as his hunting lodge. Minimal decor in the restaurant is unfussy, classic and classy.
Chef Dylan Laity spent four years at Aubergine getting a solid foundation before becoming sous chef at the Roundhouse, and a year later was promoted to executive chef. Humble, he claims that the success of the restaurant is a team effort – "It is my job to stimulate and motivate my team to cook the food that I have thought and dreamt about." Service is slick and Dylan bravely claims that people are more important in creating a good restaurant experience than the food.
Inspired by his passion and love of food, stimulated by books, the world of food and YouTube, he simply wants diners to enjoy his food, and is not chasing awards. "We are just doing what we love to do." When he is not cooking he is surfing, believing that balance, on the plate and in life, is of utmost importance. It clears his head and gives him space to think.
Dylan's ingredients of choice are seafood or anything acidic, and he considers truffles and caviar a real treat. The first three dishes on the eight-course tasting menu really resonate with him. The watermelon with quail egg, balsamic vinegar and aged parmesan illustrates his creative genius. The watermelon is cooked and smoked, and cooked again to replicate a beef carpaccio, ideal for vegetarians. The salted ostrich with walnut, blueberry, coriander seed and purple carrot comes a close second, the yellow fin tuna with kohlrabi, peas and gelled bonito stock is equally adventurous.
Dylan does not change the menu for the sake of it, but allows dishes to evolve. He takes advantage of the seasons by brining and fermenting ingredients to change their flavour profiles, and to be able to present it out of season with a different slant. His cuisine is natural with maximum respect for the product. His eyes light up when he talks about his travels to Asia.
For a special occasion this chef stays at home, chooses to braai and simply adds bubbles!
Try Rumbullion below the Roundhouse, where children can play and parents can relax with the calming view of the ocean over pizzas, picnics and other light meals.


Many customers feel left alone after completion of the plant.
Some don't have complete documentations of their plant.
Standard solutions lead to standard performance – or less.
From the many different individual plant problems we have developed a thorough understanding of cause and effects. We have seen interactions caused by grate design changes which lead to a completely unexpected new wear pattern or deteriorated combustion.
and less damages to the tube systems in the superheater.
In the recent years we have developed new grate bars for a number of OEM's – due to the focus on grate enhancements Breiding is known to have more experience in enhancements than the OEM's themselves. Why?
We can transfer our know how from changes at one system to other systems from different OEM's. We have seen and fixed problems, – we have seen what worked – and sometimes what did not work.
According to the customer´s individual wear patterns, our design team optimizes grate bars.
We generate savings in unit costs – e.g. doubled width leads (compared to two single grate bars) to a decrease of weight/cast iron needed for the casting process.
Air flow systems are adapted to fuel characteristics in order to increase the efficiency of the incineration and the durability of each bar.
Patented claws connect grate bars to each other.
Grate bars cannot lift out of line.
No displacement of individual grate bars out of the normal working position – no jamming of entire grate steps by lifts of individual grate bars.
Easy assembly! Bundling by connection rods becomes redundant.
Air gaps are constantly fixed and kept open – a homogenous fire is established.
The patented labyrinth seal is for furnaces with very fine fuel.
The overlap prevents from uprising bars.
It minimizes ash leakages through the grate.
No air passes the overlap – no torch fire effect!
Changes in the portion of nickel and/or chrome enhance the service life of wear parts.
Torch fire effects destroy grate bars as nozzles burn out. Ceramic is the solution!
Our research to increase the durability of grate bars has lead us to the idea of matching two efficiently proven materials (which usually exclude each other!): ceramic and heat resistant cast iron within one wear part!
The Problem: Nozzles are urged with ash, slag and fuel. The remaining active nozzles experience increasing air volumes passing through. This leads to high air speed and increasing temperatures: the feared forge-fire-effect takes place. The primary air cannot pass the nozzles in a controlled manner – the grate bars are rendered unusable within a short time. Nozzles burn wide open.
Result: Unscheduled downtimes and short frequencies of grate replacements.
Our goal: Unscheduled downtimes and short frequen-forge-fire-effect needs to be increased!
Our Solution: the ICeramiGX® !
Why ICeramiGX®? It's a symbiosis! The molded ceramic eliminates the specific weak point of the grate bars. The ceramic nozzle can resist up to 1,800° Celsius! The burnout of the nozzles is avoided!
The ICeramiGX® is a suitable alternative to water-cooled grate bars as well!
The ICeramiGX® is a resistant and – compared to other systems – cost-effective alternative to water-cooled grate bars. Complex and fault-prone equipment can be dispended. We accompany your deconstruction – either zones or complete grates – to air cooled systems using the ICeramiGX®.
A flexible, modular grate bar adapted to the individual needs of the grate.
Each combustion chamber has its own unique wear pattern and thus different needs. These characteristics have a high impact on the efficiency of the combustion and the lifetime of the grate.
Plant-specific wear patterns depend on the fuel, the boiler configuration and the facility utilization.
There is no solution "one grate bat fits all". Standard solutions lead to standard performance – or less.
We analyze the individual situation of the grate.
We look for recurrent (wear) patterns.
We discover the potential areas of concern.
The new design is adapted to the customer's individual needs and consists of multiple single components.
Conventionally operated grate bars had to be replaced as soon as one area of the bar was worn out. Now, only the given area is replaced and the rest of the bar can still be reused.
You receive a flexible, modular grate bar.
The grate bar is adapted to your individual needs.
You only order the components that have to be replaced. Thus, the purchasing budget can be reduced by up to 80%.
The components can be casted in different materials. It is possible to strengthen weak points by using more resistant alloys and save budget on components where higher alloys are not needed.

Every person has gotten grief for one or more of the decisions they make in their life. I get chastised more often than not. Especially by my pops.
One of the many controversies that I pummel throughout the day is the common misconception that mothers can not also be functioning stoners.
My mother once told me that she knew corporate executives that kept freezers full of top quality buds and had you not known them on that personal level, you'd never have guessed they were closet stoners.
So why is it ok for mama to have a glass of wine at the end of the day, (or middle, you do you girl!) but, unacceptable that I choose marijuana as my vice?
Women have asked me many times, "why not a glass of wine, or two?" Why not relieve your stress the way normal women do?
Who is anyone to say what is normal?
When I smoke marijuana it calms my frustrations. It gives me a moment to myself to clear my head and remember that it's all going to be ok.
Here's the misconception, I'm not lazy.
I walk my kids to and from school. Make sure homework is done, rooms are cleaned, meals are cooked and smiles are on. We are still productive while I am stoned. And I'm always stoned. I have been for the last 15 years.
Food tastes better and mommy doesn't yell.
For me, wine is not the answer. Sure it'll possibly put me in a better mood. It might calm my nerves. There's the expectation to wait until kids are in bed, because WHAT IF, I drink too much and create behavior my kids shouldn't be exposed to. There's also the possibility I'll have a horrible hangover. Or throw up, ugh. Even a mild headache is an inconvenience I don't want to deal with at 8am trying to get three kids out the door.
My mother was a wine drinker. That fancy box wine with the spout sat in our fridge. I don't ever remember thinking anything about it other than it was nasty.
Parenthood doesn't mean we lose ourselves as individuals.
Having children didn't make every woman decide that wine was no longer appropriate. They decided mama needed a glass of wine to take the edge off the day. Expecting a parent, or any human, not to want to take the edge off the day is hypocritical. Because we all deserve that self care.
I hope someone can read this and change their perspective on the medicated mama. My kids and I are happy and healthy. And the joint I'm smoking is why the dinners I create taste so bomb.
Smile at a stoner. Were probably already smiling.

I read this at the most perfect time of my life. I just recently (2 weeks ago) ended a relationship where i found myself putting my wants and needs in the rear, and put all of my focus on helping an individual who needs to find themselves. I missed out so much on being catered to and wanting the same care and affection i gave, but i was not receiving.
This gave me such an awakening that I most definitely needed. Hurting people hurt people, and one cannot not love another being if they do not value or love themselves.
Thank you so much for this Alyse ! You are most definitely a ray of sunshine.
Needed this… my relationship of 3 years just came to a sudden end. I know it's a good thing because I don't want to be in a relationship where I'm not appreciated, but that doesn't make it any easier. Time to work on myself and filling the void by finally learning to love me for who I am.
I am a long time you tube follower of raw alignment. Love your videos so much. This little number here relates with me today. I truly believe everything happens the way it's suppose to and it's so funny because I popped over here about the coloring book but, found myself reading this and it's exactly what was suppose to occur.

Q: need basic rspec help for testing class behavior and command line output I've spent 3 hrs starring at this and need some help.
I'm pretty new to RSpec and I'm trying to write test for my behavior of a class called "game"
I want to test that when called game.play sends a 3x3 grid to the output....that's all I want to do. I have the RSpec book and I'm trying real hard to figure this out but I'm stumped.
I've marked the places I think are key as "FIXME"
here are my test so far...
require_relative '../spec_helper'

# the universe is vast and infinite....and...it is empty

describe "the game class" do
  it "must output a 3x3 game grid on the CLI" do
    player_h = double('human', :player_h => "X") # FIXME - do I stub or mock this?
    player_c = double('computer', :player_c => "O")# FIXME - do I stub or mock this?
    game = Game.new(player_h, player_c)

    #FIXME - how do I get the line below to read this as if it where coming from SDOUT on the cli?
    should_receive(:puts).with("a #{$thegrid[:a1]}|#{$thegrid[:a2]}|#{$thegrid[:a3]} \n")
    game.play
  end
  it "must have a human player" do
    pending "human is X"
  end
  it "must have a computer player" do
    pending "ai is O"
  end
end

and here is the class I'm building this test for (yes I know that's backwards...I should be writing the test and THEN the code...but like I said, I'm a noob at this...the entire game code is already written...I'm really just tying to understand RSpec now.)...
require_relative "player"
#
#Just a Tic Tac Toe game class
class Game
  #create players
  def initialize(player_h, player_c)
    #bring into existence the board and the players
    @player_h = player_h
    @player_c = player_c
    #value hash for the grid lives here
    $thegrid = {
        :a1=>" ", :a2=>" ", :a3=>" ",
        :b1=>" ", :b2=>" ", :b3=>" ",
        :c1=>" ", :c2=>" ", :c3=>" "
    }
    #make a global var for drawgrid used by player
    $gamegrid = drawgrid

  end
  #display grid on console
  def drawgrid

    board = "\n"
    board << "a #{$thegrid[:a1]}|#{$thegrid[:a2]}|#{$thegrid[:a3]} \n"
    board << "----------\n"
    board << "b #{$thegrid[:b1]}|#{$thegrid[:b2]}|#{$thegrid[:b3]} \n"
    board << "----------\n"
    board << "c #{$thegrid[:c1]}|#{$thegrid[:c2]}|#{$thegrid[:c3]} \n"
    board << "----------\n"
    board << "  1 2 3 \n"
    return board

  end
  #start the game
  def play
    #draw the board
    puts drawgrid
    #make a move
    #alternate player turns
  end

end

Any guidance is much appreciated.

A: IIRC in the RSpec book they pass in an IO object, which is mocked in the tests, but it should also work if you expect STDOUT to receive the puts:
STDOUT.should_receive(:puts).with("foo")

What is in your lotions and potions?
Ever wonder what is in your skin care products and makeup?
Often while the ingredients are listed it is hard to tell what is what and what it can or may do.
There is a website which is dedicated to explaining and listing what is in our lotions and potions.
Washington, DC — Most people think that the ingredients in personal care and cosmetic products are safety tested before they are sold. But there is no such requirement in federal law.
To help consumers make informed decisions about their products, Environmental Working Group (EWG) is re-launching its popular Skin Deep website, the only online source for assessing and comparing the safety of personal care products. Skin Deep, first launched 3 years ago by the EWG, generates more than 1 million unique page visits a month. Skin Deep 3.0 is a dramatic upgrade of the database, both in the number of products assessed and the sophistication of EWG's safety reviews. This newest version evaluates the safety of nearly one-fourth of all personal care products on the market.
Skin Deep fills the information gaps left by an industry that markets thousands of products with ingredients that have not been assessed for safety by either industry or government health experts. By law, the government cannot mandate safety studies of cosmetics products or their ingredients, and only 13 percent of the 10,500 ingredients in personal care products have been reviewed for safety by the cosmetic industry's own review panel. For virtually every product on the market, safety decisions are made behind closed doors, guided by an industry-funded panel, without the benefit of peer-review or independent pre-market safety testing.
I found it intresting to plug in some of the things I have used on myself and my kids and see what it throws up. Mind you it's not that long ago women would be rubbing lead and arsenic on their faces and putting deadly nightshade drops in their eyes so I know that the 'beauty' industry has always been dodgy.

Cult French covers band Nouvelle Vague are set to have a very busy time later this year. The group are releasing a new EP in September, going on tour in November and are gearing up to release a new album. Led by Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux – and very often accompanied by a variety of talented female vocalists – their upcoming new LP I Could Be Happy promises to feature a host of punk and post punk standards recorded in the group's distinctive new wave, bossa nova style.
'Athol-Brose' has also been chosen to help tease I Could Be Happy in a new, short video. The teaser trailer shows clips of Liset Alea and the band rehearsing and later recording the luscious cover at the Studio Saint Germain in Paris, giving a taste of what to expect from the record. Watch below.
In addition, the band are heading out on tour later in the year. Two UK and Ireland dates have been confirmed so far, taking place in November. Details below.

I am attending a wedding in one of the small towns of India . The whole affair is very traditional and not the big tamaasha ( spectacle), Bollywood style , which seems to have become quite a norm thses days .
The ceremonies are attended by family and close friends and they start a few days before . From the bride's side –every evening we gather together to sing Bunni ( bridal) songs which are folk songs teasing the bride ( bunni) and and are peppered with motherly advice . They are accompanied by lots of clapping and dancing by the family . There is the official Sangeet , the day Mehendi ( Henna ) is put on the palms and feet of the bride , her friends clap, dance and sing . All these are accompanied by plenty of feasting .
The young ladies of the house are dressed in their finery with jewels and zardosi embellished skirts and veils on the day of the wedding ---but they pale in front of the Bride –who is dazzling , yet demure in her attire of red and gold .


Opportunities for teaching and learning are everywhere. Language is also everywhere. Given this scenario, it drives me crazy when I hear someone say: "this is a horrible tool"; "I don't know how this could be used for teaching",or "this is just a game".
I have always been an advocate to the fact that a good teacher and a good speech therapists will not need specific tools to teach students. Well, specific tools that do the work for you are great because they guide us on the teaching experience; however, we must not forget that a tool is JUST a tool and it was not designed to replace you as a therapist or a teacher.(Please note I am not at all discrediting the advantages of apps for learning ; as I have created 21 of them myself).
The explosion of apps for children with special needs, has pushed us to want tools that do more and betters things all the time. I am afraid we may be forgetting to use our creativity to transform any "useless" app into a great tool for learning. It all starts with the need to motivate the students to want to learn; what better way to do that than using something that already draws their attention? I have decided to start this series on "from useless to learning apps" with one of the biggest game apps of all times: Angry Birds!
If you are not already hooked into Angry Birds, or are afraid of loosing your prestige because you downloaded it, you may find a good excuse for downloading it or owning it on this post. The idea behind Angry Birds is that the birds need to hit the pigs to move on to the next level. You may have noticed that in order to win the greatest number of stars you may need some strategic thinking prior to sending your birds out there.
I see that Angry Birds can be used in so many different ways to teach students new vocabulary, the use of coherent language, basic question/answering skills and even story telling skills. You will just need to adjust the level of scaffolding needed to get into the skills you are trying to get into.
As a parent, instead of prohibiting your child from playing the game, consider having activities your child needs to complete prior to or after moving on to the next level.
Here are some ideas I was able to come up with on how even Angry Birds can be used to promote learning.
1. If your student/child is already familiar with Angry Birds, get him to explain the whole game to you. If you are working on writing skills, this can even be a written assignment.
There are several questions that can be used to get students to use language just by talking about the game itself.
2. You and the child can play one or several levels together; however the child has to describe their strategy to getting to the pig prior to playing the level. If you are with a group of students; how about having each student think out their strategies separately and get them to discuss which strategy is best and then put into action?
d. Adjective: used when describing the areas & targets in which the birds must land.
Maybe students can take turns to guide each other using key words to complete the levels.
3. Select a level and ask the student to play it once, then ask them to describe their strategies verbally or create a written material that describes their strategies.
When teaching students to describe activities using coherent language (a skills that can be very limited in children with language disorders) we want them to follow an order…" you first did this.. then that". You can use each level on Angry Birds to teach that skill. The game has an order in which things happen. You can guide students to describe it step by step which you guide them. You can both sit together to reproduce the steps he describe on the same level and even think out better ways to achieve the same goal.
Excellent post- great analysis there. We are SO on the same page!
I agree! I was using angry birds as a reward system for the last 5 min of therapy, then I realized the plethora of language capabilities this game holds. I continue to use it, but now as a therapy tool…and the kids are HIGHLY motivated!!
Glad to see someone especially of all the people an SLP (just kidding don't throw darts at me thinking out of box.
I am sure your kids won't stop talking about the angry birds with all the language they can muster to describe it.
Exactly!! Well put!!! A tool is just that – a TOOL. It does not replace the expertise and skills of a professional . . . there are many ways that one could turn a cardboard box into a therapy activity . . . it's the professional that guides the usefulness of the tool!!
I have teachers tell me all the time that they don't want the kids using these "useless" game apps, however, like you, I hear a lot of language every time I sneak a game in with my students. I have used similar strategies like the ones you listed with all different kinds of students (artic, language delayed, stutterers) … it just plain works! Thanks for the nice post. I totally agree!
I love that you are writing on this topic! It is so important to see the iPad and all its great apps as being instructionally relevant! The fun part is clear! The real magic is in the teaching!
This is wonderful! I was truly resisting downloading Angry Birds, which is wildly popular among my elementary school aged children's friends because I thought it was most likely a mind-numbing, useless game. You have shown me the light! I always love your posts Barbara! You give such valuable insight and wonderful strategies! Bravo!
I too think these types of apps are great. Thank you for writing about it. I have used games like Angry Birds with my students with autism. Not only is it an incentive, but it also gains the interest of peers. It is not always easy to find a medium of exchange between my students and their peers. Angry Birds has been a great way for one of my nearly non-verbal students to show he can enjoy (and be good at) the same game as his classmates.
Using this game for middle school kiddos, it is great for use of procedurals, turn-taking with a group, course-specific vocabulary such as in math–arcs, obtuse angles, acute angles, arches, diagonals, and a plethora of sequential terminology. The game can be used as a barrier game to assist with describing and have one student describe the scene to another student using information such as setting, specific coloring of scene, as well as what Barbara mentioned, use of the prepositions, adjectives and adverbs. There can also be the use of prediction for students to guess what will happen if……. This can also be used for articulation (The harrassing bird came crashing through the air and went through the rubble.) This can be used for fluency and the student has to use a strategy to explain their strategy or make up a sentence about the scene before they can send a bird into the air. There is a myriad of language activities that can be used if you use your creativity. Angry birds just happens to be a motivating one!
Oh please tell me yes – I have to find a way to recoup the hours I have spent playing this game! Now I can say that it's research into a reinforcement tool that is also a language stimulation resource!! Thanks for the justification…!
How about having the kids practice sounds as the birds are flying? For example, students can say "sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss" until it hits a tower. Just had that thought as I was reading this. You could split the blue birds into three sounds like /t/ /t/ /t/ or /p/ /p/ /p/.
One of the reasons why I love being an SLP – we can make anything a learning experience! Describing strategies what worked, what didn't, why, and what could you do are great ways of promoting language and critical reasoning. Excellent idea!

Building Bridges Instead of Walls
Pontiff Reflects on the Fruits of Meekness and Humility During Morning Mass
January 24, 2014 00:00ZENIT StaffVatican Dicasteries/Diplomacy
Meekness and humility are crucial to fostering dialogue. This was the central theme of Pope Francis' homily this morning. Through these virtues, the Pope said, one follows the example left by Christ who humbled himself until the end.
The first reading today recalled King Saul's persecution of David. Although David had an opportunity to kill David, he chose the path that leads to dialogue and makes peace.
"Meekness is necessary in order to dialogue, without shouting," the Pope said. "It is also necessary to think of the other person has something more than me, and David thought of this: 'He is the anointed one of the Lord, and is more important than me.' Humility, meekness. In order to dialogue, it is necessary to do that which we ask for today in prayer, at the beginning of Mass: to do everything for everyone."
Even though dialogue is difficult, the Holy Father said that it is worse to "create a bridge" with an adversary while holding a growing anger in one's heart. A Christian, however, has the example of David and Jesus who through an act of humility, conquers hate.
"Jesus has done it: he humbled himself until the end, he has shown us the way," the Pope said. "And it is necessary that too much time doesn't pass. When there is a problem, as soon as possible, in the moment in which it can be done, after the storm has passed, come together to dialogue, because time makes the wall grow, the weeds grow and impede the growth of the grain. And when the walls grow, reconciliation is very difficult. It is very difficult!"
Echoing sentiments he expressed several times, the 77 year old Pontiff said that there is no problem if "a few plates fly", whether in the family or in a community. The important thing is to look for peace as soon as possible. The Holy Father also emphasized that it is better to build a bridge rather than a wall, like the Berlin Wall that divided Germany for so many years. "Even in our hearts, it is possible to become like Berlin and build up a wall against others."
"I am afraid of these walls, the walls that grow everyday and encourage resentments and hate," the Pope said.
Concluding his homily, Pope Francis called on the faithful to follow the example of David who chose the path of dialogue with humility, meekness, and sweetness.
"Today", he said, "we can ask Saint Francis de Sales, doctor of sweetness, that he give all of us the grace to build bridges with the other. No more walls." (J.A.E.)

This was written by Conference Minister Rev. Bill Worley for the July 18, 2018 eNews conference-wide email.
One of the goals of the PSEC 20/20 vision plan was the formation of a Member In Discernment Academy. That goal had its Genesis in consensus about the crisis of leadership that affects all levels of our community and culture and particularly the church. I have said, and will continue to say, that we must change the way we identify, train and support church leaders if we intend to change the world for good and for God.
This past weekend seventeen Members in Discernment (MIDs) traveled to The Kirkridge Retreat Center in Bangor, Pennsylvania with with seven currently serving ministers. The purpose of the weekend was to connect MIDs with each other, some of the best practitioners of parish ministry, as well as conference staff and members of Committees on Ministry. In workshops and role plays and worship, we addressed the challenges of preparing for ministry, the need for crystal clarity about the call to ministry, and how to meet gaps in preparation for serving in various ministry settings.
I learned many things. First, our MIDs have an incredible heart for the gospel, a deep care for people and a strong desire to bring their giftedness to the brokenness of the world. Second, I learned that currently serving clergy folks understand and are equipped to train MIDs as well as any seminary faculty. Third, I learned that Members In Discernment do not have the full support of the church and that needs to change. Finally, everything that we need to meet the leadership crisis of the church is already in the church if we work together. I cannot tell you how excited and hopeful that makes me!


I have Aspire Federal Union credit card and I like it but the thing is it does not give much rewards, one point per dollar. I want a credit card that will give me more rewards, points or cash back. Do you have such card?
One point per dollar spent is a pretty much standard reward that is offered on most reward credit cards. If you want to earn more, you can look at the credit card offers from Barclays. Their credit cards can offer a bit more than a standard one point per dollar reward. If you are not afraid of changing categories that can give two or three times more rewards and ready to sign up every time a category changes, then you may get interested in Discover credit cards. Also, many credit card issuers have their own online portals where you can earn more rewards or save more on your purchases.
I would appreciate an answer to my questions as to why when I had a Sunoco fleet card and canceled it, why can't I get a regular Sunoco credit card?
As noted below i have had a Sunoco Fleet credit card and canceled it and would like to replace it with a regular Sunoco credit card and I am told that my credit doesn't warrant it, why?
We would recommend you to check your credit reports and credit scores to make sure your credit score hasn't dropped down. When you cancel a credit card it may cause a decrease of your credit score because you lower available credit limit by doing this and as a result, it can increase your credit utilization ration, which causes credit score drop.

Open versus proprietary in software and systems
Opening the ILS/LSP: Steps Towards a Fully Customizable Infrastructure:
""Library Systems and services are at a point where they can be refined to meet the unique goals and needs of specific institutions. In spite of these impressive capabilities, library systems sometimes lack the flexibility afforded by the full interoperability across multiple libraries, vendors, and platforms necessary to ensure peak performance.
The traditional centerpiece of our systems environment, the ILS or LSP, is at a crossroads between allowing the kinds of systems interplay libraries need and the barriers created by contractual issues, technical barriers, and closed infrastructure. This session will highlight specific integration and interoperability concerns with commentary from members of the university, consortia, and vendor communities. The session will also emphasize the benefits of open systems for libraries and vendors, and how NISO could play a role by considering applicable standards through a dedicated working group.""
Expediting Access with a Browser Add-on: Open Source vs. Commercial Approach:
""Providing quick and easy access to the library's paid resources for researchers has been an ongoing challenge for libraries. One attractive means to achieve this is a web browser add-on, because it has the advantage of being available exactly when and where scholars and researchers spot and try to obtain the full-text content of research materials while online.
LibX, a free and open-source browser add-on developed at the Virginia Tech in 2005, was widely adopted and used by many libraries for more than a decade. But recently it has become defunct due to the lack of development efforts and general support from the wide library community. Now, some libraries have started licensing and implementing commercial products instead. Even though these commercial add-ons and LibX all aim to facilitate and expedite access, there are some distinct differences in their approaches.
In this session, I will (a) explore those differences in the open-source vs the commercial approach, drawing examples from LibX and Lean Library and (b) discuss what may be the ideal user interface design and the feature set for a browser extension that meets the users' research needs, delivers great user experience, and advances the library's goal at the same time.""

Microsoft had worked with Apple Computer to develop applications for Apple's January 1984 original Macintosh, the first mass-produced personal computer with a graphical user interface (GUI) that enabled users to see user friendly icons on screen. Windows 1.0 was released on November 20, 1985, as the first version of the Microsoft Windows line. It runs as a graphical, 16-bit multi-tasking shell on top of an existing MS-DOS installation. It provides an environment which can run graphical programs designed for Windows, as well as existing MS-DOS software. Its development was spearheaded by the company founder Bill Gates after he saw a demonstration of a similar software suite known as Visi On at COMDEX.
Despite positive responses to its early presentations and support from a number of hardware and software makers, Windows 1.0 was received poorly by critics. Critics felt Windows 1.0 did not meet their expectations. In particular, they felt that Windows 1.0 put too much emphasis on mouse input at a time when mouse use was not yet widespread; not providing enough resources for new users; and for performance issues, especially on systems with lower computer hardware specifications. Despite these criticisms, Windows 1.0 was an important milestone for Microsoft, as it introduced the Microsoft Windows line. Windows 1.0 was declared obsolete and Microsoft stopped providing support and updates for the system on December 31, 2001.
Microsoft began developing a graphical user interface (GUI) in 1981. The development of Windows began after Microsoft founder Bill Gates saw a demonstration at COMDEX 1982 of VisiCorp's Visi On, a GUI software suite for IBM PC compatible computers. In 1983 Microsoft learned that Apple's own GUI software—based in part on Xerox PARC technology–was much more sophisticated, and decided that its own product would be different.
Microsoft first presented Windows to the public on November 10, 1983. Requiring two floppy disk drives and 192 KB of RAM, Microsoft described the software as a device driver for MS-DOS 2.0. By supporting cooperative multitasking in tiled windows when using well-behaved applications that only used DOS system calls, and permitting non-well-behaved applications to run in a full screen, Windows differed from both Visi On and Apple Computer's Lisa by immediately offering many applications. Unlike Visi On, Windows developers did not need to use Unix to develop IBM PC applications; Microsoft planned to encourage other companies, including competitors, to develop programs for Windows by not requiring a Microsoft user interface in their applications.
Many manufacturers of MS-DOS computers such as Compaq, Zenith, and DEC promised to provide support, as did software companies such as Ashton-Tate and Lotus. After previewing Windows, BYTE magazine stated in December 1983 that it "seems to offer remarkable openness, reconfigurability, and transportability as well as modest hardware requirements and pricing … Barring a surprise product introduction from another company, Microsoft Windows will be the first large-scale test of the desktop metaphor in the hands of its intended users".
From early in Windows' history Gates viewed it as Microsoft's future. He told InfoWorld magazine in April 1984 that "Our strategies and energies as a company are totally committed to Windows, in the same way that we're committed to operating-system kernels like MS-DOS and Xenix. We're also saying that only applications that take advantage of Windows will be competitive in the long run." IBM was notably absent from Microsoft's announcement, and by late 1984, the press reported a "War of the Windows" between Windows, IBM's TopView, and Digital Research's Graphics Environment Manager (GEM). Microsoft had promised in November 1983 to ship Windows by April 1984, but subsequently denied that it had announced a release date, and predicted that Windows would ship by June 1985. Deemphasizing multitasking, the company stated that Windows' purpose, unlike that of TopView, was to "turn the computer into a graphics-rich environment" while using less memory. After Microsoft persuaded IBM that the latter needed a GUI, in April 1987 the two companies announced the introduction of OS/2 and its graphical OS/2 Presentation Manager, which were supposed to ultimately replace both MS-DOS and Windows. In November 1987, Windows 1.0 was succeeded by Windows 2.0. Microsoft supported Windows 1.0 for 16 years, until December 31, 2001 – the longest out of all versions of Windows.
Version 1.01, released on November 20, 1985, was the first public release of Windows 1.0.
Version 1.02, released in May 1986, was an international release.
Version 1.03, released in August 1986, included enhancements that made it consistent with the international release like drivers for European keyboards and additional screen and printer drivers.

Q: "git push origin master" gives weird behavior in bash script I have this simple function in my bashrc file
function aupgrade {
    cat ~/.bash_aliases > ~/bash/.bash_aliases
    cd ~/bash
    git add .

    if [[ $1 == "" ]]; then
        git commit -m "Update"
    else
        git commit -m "$1"
    fi

    git push origin master

    cd - 1>/dev/null
}

This function has a purpose, this is the expected behavior:

First, replace the content of the .bash_aliases file in the bash repository with the stdout of cat ~/.bash_aliases
Second, go into the ~/bash directory which is a git respository
Third, stage all changes
Fourth, if when calling the aupgrade function the following argument is nothing, just commit with the "Update" message, but if the user wrote an argument, like aupgrade "New commit!", commit the changes with such argument as the message, git commit -m $1
Fifth, push the changes
Sixth, go back to the previous directory

BUT, it doesnt do that, instead it just does:

First, replace the content of the .bash_aliases file in the bash repository with the stdout of cat ~/.bash_aliases
Second, go into the ~/bash directory which is a git respository
Third, stage all changes
Fourth, commit with the "Update" message although there is an argument
Fifth, push the changes
Sixth, go back to the previous directory
This is weird. This looks product of the git push origin master line. It's not a conditional problem, because when I wrote another function like this but without the git push origin master line it worked as desired.
Why does this happen? Is there any solution?
This is what set -x shows to me, it's really weird

A: So I have tested your code, and the only problem I could find is that passing your first argument as a string with multiple exclamation marks inserts the same (or previous?) command unless you escape it:

It looks like this is exactly what happened for you, but you had "set -x" ran beforehand, thus it replaced the double exclamation marks with that command.
I'd also recommend storing function arguments in named local variables for cleaner code.

90 (37)HIGHWAYS LOCAL TRANSPORT PLAN PROGRAMME UPDATE – The Director of Places submitted a report updating the Cabinet Member on the progress of delivering the current Local Transport Plan and Capital budget programmes.
The corresponding report of the following item (Minute 91 refers) contains exempt information as defined in Paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended).
91 (38) BUS SERVICES OPERATOR'S GRANT (BSOG) – DEVOLVING FUNDING TO LOCAL TRANSPORT AUTHORITIES – The Director of Places submitted a report updating the Cabinet Member on national changes to the BSOG scheme in relation to subsidised local (tendered) bus services and how it might impact on existing bus services in North Lincolnshire.
BSOG (formerly the fuel duty rebate) was a grant paid to operators of eligible local bus services and community transport organisations. The scheme helped them recover some of their fuel costs. The amount each bus company receives was based on their service mileage and annual fuel consumption. This was affected by type and size of engine. The aim of BSOG was to benefit passengers. It did this by helping operators keep their costs down and enabling them to run services that might not otherwise be profitable and might be cancelled.
The amount of reimbursement as a proportion of actual fuel duty incurred had reduced in recent years. In 2012, the DfT cut BSOG down to 61% from 81% of the total amount of fuel duty payable (from 43.21p per litre to 34.57p per litre). Bus operators took into account the amount of BSOG when deciding the tender price they would submit for the council's subsidised bus routes.
The report gave details of the allocation of the BSOG for North Lincolnshire, along with options for the method of allocating the BSOG.
Resolved – (a) That Option 1, as set out in paragraph 3.1 of the report, be approved, and (b) that officers include final recommendations on how to distribute BSOG to all registered services in a further report for consideration in January 2014 on subsidised bus services.

Many mums-to-be experience heartburn or acidity. Find out more about what causes heartburn and acidity in pregnancy and what you can do to help relieve your symptoms.
What is heartburn and what causes it during pregnancy?
Heartburn (also called acid indigestion or acid reflux), is a burning sensation that often extends from the bottom of your breastbone up to your lower throat.
During pregnancy, your placenta produces a hormone called progesterone. Progesterone relaxes the valve that separates your oesophagus from your stomach, allowing gastric acid to flow back up into your throat or mouth, leaving a sour or bitter taste.
Later in pregnancy, your growing baby pushes your intestines and stomach upwards, forcing stomach acids back up into your gullet.
How can I relieve heartburn?
Avoid fizzy drinks, chocolate, acidic foods like citrus and tomatoes, and spicy or fried foods.
Try chewing gum after eating. It stimulates your salivary glands and saliva can help neutralise acids.
If these tips don't help, talk to your pharmacist about over-the-counter treatments that are safe to take during your pregnancy. Or your doctor may be able to prescribe further treatment that will help your symptoms.

BRITs Critics' Choice winners album sales and biggest singles
With the 2018 Critics' Choice nominees unveiled, we reveal the success of its previous recipients.
The BRITs Critics' Choice award has a very strong track record when it comes to finding the UK's next big thing.
Between them, the ten previous winners have amassed album sales of 25.2 million, according to Official Charts Company data, with all but two scoring at least one Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart.
With Jorja Smith named as 2018's recipient of the coveted, OfficialCharts.com reveals the career album sales and biggest hits of each of its winners. No pressure Jorja...
It's only fitting that the lady who won the inaugural award should be the huge success story everyone else would love to emulate. Since being named as the very first Critics' Choice in 2008, Adele has become a global megastar, winning a host of awards and breaking records left, right and centre. In 2013 she won a Golden Globe and an Oscar to add to her BRITs and Grammys awards hauls, plus she was awarded the MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours list.
Adele at the BRIT Awards in 2008 (Rex)
Her debut album 19 was a chart-topper and double million-seller (2.4), while its follow-up 21 is the fourth biggest selling album of all time in the UK, with just over 5 million sales. Her most recent, 25, is the UK's fastest-selling album of all time.
ALBUM SALES: 10.9 million
BIGGEST HIT: Someone Like You, which Adele sang in an emotionally charged performance at the BRIT Awards in 2011. It's sold 1.6 million copies, 2 million including streaming equivalent sales.
Florence Welch and her machine practically invented a new genre of music when they were named BRITs Critics' Choice for 2009. Debut hit Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up) was first of eight Top 40 hits, including two Number 1s in 2012.
The first, Spectrum, remixed by Calvin Harris and the second Sweet Nothing, where Florence returned the favour and featured on Calvin's song. All three albums, Lungs, Ceremonials and How Big How Blue How Beautiful, have been chart-toppers, with her debut shifting 1.7 million.
ALBUM SALES: 2.9 million
BIGGEST HIT: Florence's cover of You've Got The Love, made famous by Candi Staton, was a Top 5 hit in 2009 and has sold 760,000 copies, 1 million including streaming. She even had a hit with it again the following year, in a slightly rejigged version with Dizzee Rascal, which they first performed at the BRIT Awards in 2010.
Her first hit was Starry Eyed, and Ellie Goulding has remained pretty stratospheric since then, boasting 19 Top 40 hits, including huge Number 1 from 2013 Burn. Ellie has also collaborated with other huge UK music stars like Tinie Tempah and Calvin Harris. Halcyon – her follow-up to debut album Lights – took 65 weeks to reach the top spot in January, while 2015's Delirium peaked at 3.
BIGGEST HIT: Ellie's track for the Fifty Shades Of Grey film, Love Me Like You Do, is her biggest hit with 826,000 sales, 1.5 million including streaming.
Since winning the Critics' Choice in 2011, Jessie J has landed 16 Top 40 singles, including two Number 1s and three Top 10 albums: Who You Are (2), Alive (3) and Sweet Talker (5). She also sat on the judging panel of BBC 1's talent show The Voice for two seasons, before making way for Kylie Minogue.
BIGGEST HIT: Jessie's first chart-topper Price Tag has sold 1.2 million (1.6 million including streams)
Emeli Sande's win in 2012 propelled her to enormous success in the UK. Her debut album, Our Version Of Events, spent ten weeks at Number 1 and has sold just shy of 2.4 million.
Image: Rex
She's also featured on 11 Top 10 hits, including two chart-toppers – Read All About It with Professor Green and Beneath Your Beautifulwith Labrinth. As if that wasn't enough, she's written hits for other artists too including Leona Lewis and Cheryl Cole.
BIGGEST HIT: Beneath Your Beautiful has sold over 880,000 copies. Emeli's biggest solo hit is Next To Me, shifting 695,000 copies.
Tom Odell
Chichester-born Tom Odell was the first male winner of the award, beating AlunaGeorge and Laura Mvula in 2013. Discovered by none other than Lily Allen, who signed him up to her label straight away, Tom released his debut album Long Way Down in summer last year, landing straight in at Number 1. Follow-up album Wrong Crowd topped out at Number 2 in 2016.
BIGGEST HIT: Another Love hit Number 10 in 2013 and has sold 344,000, 682,000 including streams.
ALBUM SALES: 478,000
Sam Smith broke records with his debut album In The Lonely Hour, which was released shortly after winning the Critics' Choice in 2014. The collection was the only to sell one million on both sides of the Atlantic that year and has since sold a mighty 2.3 million in the UK alone. His highly anticipated follow-up, The Thrill Of It All, also entered at Number 1 earlier this month.
When it comes to singles, Sam has landed 13 Top 40 hits, six of which have reached Number 1. One of those Number 1s is James Bond theme Writing's On The Wall - the only Bond song to top the Official Chart.
BIGGEST HIT: Naughty Boy's La La La, which Sam guests on, is his biggest seller (1 million pure sales), but when sales and streams are combined, it's Stay With Me with 1.7 million.
Singer-songwriter James Bay beat Years and Years and George The Poet to claim the Critics' Choice prize in 2015. His debut album, Chaos and the Calm, entered straight in at Number 1 and spent 32 weeks inside the Top 10.
BIGGEST HIT: Hold Back The River peaked at Number 2, which has sold 669,000 (1.5 million including streams)
Buckinghamshire-born Jack Garratt is arguably the Critics' Choice most left-field winner. A singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Jack's mostly self-written and produced first album Phase landed at Number 3 on the Official Chart in February 2016.
ALBUM SALES: 76,000
It is safe to say that 2017 was an incredible year for Rag'n'Bone Man following his BRITs Critics' Choice win. At the actual BRIT Awards themselves, he took home the Best British Breakthrough trophy as well, making him the first act to win both in the same year.
His debut album Human is the fastest-selling debut album by a male soloist this decade, and shifted 117,000 units in just seven days, that's more than Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith did with their debut albums in week one.
BIGGEST HIT: Human reached Number 2 on the Official Singles Chart and has sold 535,000, 1.3 million including streams.
The BRIT Awards 2018 take place on Wednesday, February 21 at London's O2 Arena.

Wetmore/Little Presque Isle/Harlow Lake Area Trails
Average Overall Rating
The Wetmore Landing, Little Presque Isle, and Harlow Lake area offers 19 miles of hiking trails. This area boasts a Lake Superior shoreline trail that goes along Little Presque Isle Point, a loop along Harlow Lake, and a view from the top of Hogback Mountain; one if the highest points in the Upper Peninsula. The North Country Trail also passes through this area.
The shoreline portion of the trail is a picturesque stretch of coast with both great sand beaches and rocky shoreline.
The hike to the summit od Hogback Mountain offers excellent views of the surrounding area. Hogback Mountain has an elevation of 1,220 feet, making it the second highest point in the Upper Peninsula.
Rustic cabins are available to rent in the Harlow Lake area. These cabins are open year round and can be reached via snowshoes or cross country skis in the winter.
The Wetmore Landing parking area is east off CR 550 about 5 1/2 miles north of Marquette. The Little Presque Isle parking area is an additional mile north.
Trail Segments:
Song Bird Trail Loop (1.1 miles): This segment starts at the Little Presque Isle parking area. The trail loops between Harlow Creek and Lake Superior and has ten stops with signs that interpret songbirds common in this area: sparrows, American redstarts, pileated and hairy woodpeckers, several kinds of warblers, merlins, thrushes, juncos, and gulls.
Little Presque Isle/Harlow Lake Trail Loop (6.7 miles): Use the Wetmore Landing parking area on the east side of CR 550, leave trail head towards Lake Superior and travel north on the trail along the lake, continue past Little Presque Isle Point and follow trail northwest, cross CR 550 and continue toward Harlow Lake, at Harlow Lake follow trail around the lake on the east side and up Bareback Ridge, after enjoying the views of the Huron Mountain Range and Marquette continue down trail and back to the trail head.
Hogback Mountain Loop (4.6 miles): Use the Wetmore Landing parking area on the east side of CR 550, leave trail head toward Lake Superior and travel south on trail along the lake, follow the sign toward Hogback at Hogback/Sugarloaf intersection, cross CR 550 and continue to follow trail up Hogback, at the top of trail follow the rock face up to the top of Hogback, after enjoying your accomplishment head back down the rock face and continue along trail. This segment is steep so take your time and watch your footing, after the trail flattens out you will come to an intersection, follow trail to the left, after a short distance take the first right (this trail is not marked with blue paint), cross old rail road grade and continue on trail until you reach an intersection near CR 550 (you will not be able to see CR 550 but you should be able to hear it), follow the trail left, continue on the trail until it merges with a larger trail and crosses CR 550 to the trail head.
Other trail segments are also available. See map for details
- Trail Reviews -
May 1, 2014 - reviewed by Anonymous
This trail is awesome. I haven't hike it in years, but it used to be a regular of mine. If you're going to be anywhere around Marquette, don't miss it. In fact, do this hike even if you skip all the others. Forget Sugarloaf. Unless you have little ones. I don't actually know about drinking the water, but take a camelbak or a liter with you. The easiest way to get there is to go to the Wetmore Pond hike on the right, heading north on 550. It's a loop parking system Then, catch the trail around the parking lot. There will be signs saying how far Hogback is. If I remember right, it's 1.8 miles. Follow the trail, at some point there is a fork with a sign to Wetmore. You want to go the opposite way. A great part before the peak, which no one mentioned, is an ominous hemlock stand. They are so tall, there's no undergrowth and they're gloriously quiet. You'll hit a short stint of low marsh, that may be a little wet. Then you'll cross over, start what you think is an easygoing ascent. Then the steeper stuff hits you and just when you think you need a second break, you'll see a rock face. Climb that and you're golden. It's beautiful, peaceful and perfect for any soul-searching. Or even for fun, if you're into that kind of thing. On second thought... Maybe I Gould be saying this place sucks...

Nice hike up Hogs Back today. 65 degrees in the middle of October is good for me.

We hiked up to Hogback from the Wetmore Landing parking area. The weather and trail were great. A little mucky in the low lying areas, but other than that it was clear sailing. Very little bugs. An excellent hike!

We hiked up the Bareback Ridge loop today. Wind was a little cool coming off Superior, but for the middle of November it was a beautiful day. The trail is well marked and easy to follow if you have the map or know your way around.
