Southampton seal defensive transfer ahead of Carabao Cup semi-final clash with Newcastle United
'No room for sentiment' – Steve Bruce talks Newcastle United selection and Andy Carroll's future
Andy Carroll looks to edging towards the end of his second spell at Newcastle United – but Steve Bruce says there's no room for sentiment in football as he hints at potential final home game snub for striker.

Since signing in the summer of 2019, rarely used Carroll is yet to score in front of fans, his only goal coming in the Magpies' behind-closed-doors Leicester City defeat in January.
And in recent months the Geordie frontman has been overlooked, barely making an appearance off the bench as his United contract runs down.
While many are wondering whether Bruce will allow Carroll a final farewell in front of 10,000 against Sheffield United, the head coach only has eyes for three points, not emotion and sentiment.
Newcastle United's English striker Andy Carroll warms up ahead of the English Premier League football match between Liverpool and Newcastle United at Anfield in Liverpool, north west England on April 24, 2021.
"The one thing I can't be is sentimental," he said.
"I want to win the two games. I want to get to 45 points.
"There is no room for sentiment when we've got two big games. We want to finish well."

As President Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un sit down for their historic meeting, there may be another person in attendance. Take a look back inside the friendship of former NBA player, Dennis Rodman and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Rodman, always there to save the ball.
He's one of those people who think any publicity is good publicity; just like our president.
Rodman and Tubby Boy Kim Jung Un are secret lovers...We all know who plays the female in this relationship!!
I have my reservations about Dennis Rodman but I have to admit that there's something special about his relationships with Kim Jong-un and President Trump.
As long as Rodman is here, the world is safe from nukes. lol.
This deserves a biopic. One of the strangest friendships in human history.
I want to have a house nigro, too!
"We go skiing" lmao I can imagine Kim and Dennis skiing and laughing and having a ball..
Socrates You are nothing and i mean nothingggggggg but a disgrace to socrates. And a disgrace to yourself!!
Blu Are you smoking crack with rodman? Lmao. Probably the most ignorant comment on this video.
Blu Show me the "peace".
All the CIA and Pentagon do is warmongering and false flag operations.
Was Dennis Rodman wearing eye makeup in the beginning?
You are beautiful Dennis Rodman!
Reminds me of Dave skylark..
Trump is right. Dennis was a great rebounder. Lol.
Let me tell you about Rodman. One word. Genius.
Former Chicago Bulls NBA Player Dennis Rodman, saves the world from nuclear holocaust.
Kim Jong Un: I have have black friends too!
Continued violence and predatory perpetrators of Organized Stalking, Orwellian Electronic KKK-Nazism crimes...Electronic Harassment V2K Gang Stalking here in Oregon's Willamette Valley & throughout The Nation and elsewhere: and, on Whom All's Dime!?!…: www.pactsntl.org The PACTS Store + etc.// Youtube.com Survivor Electronic Harassment V2K Gang Stalking (Crimes Against Humanity); +, U.S. Senate Hearings on Gang Stalking (and Dr. Daniel Lebowitz' the same)// Facebook Derrick Charles Robinson + All of his Fb Friends in full and including David Voigts, More.// StopEG.com started in Europe's newer rise of Nazism. // www.Splcenter.org in detail since at least their Spring 2013 article on Meth-Trafficking & Nazism (North Korea's also doing it and Hitler's people invented the toxic synthetic Scourge. Complain to The United States Senate in unison + To The United Nations Secretary General and entire Assembly + To their Defenders of Human Rights Office today. Even exactly right now the USA is Failing To Stop Organized Stalking Covert Weapons Assaults violence being run on Americans & Others to only Destroy. Youtube.com U.S. Army intelligence Officer, Julianne McKinney, Talks About Targeted Individuals & Gang Stalking Crimes (& as a prelude to Genocide which the reverse-Berlin Walls of Trump-Pence would facilitate by entrapping Americans, et al)..gross Civil & Human Rights Abuses and Violations on international levels + totally an affront to Democracy & To The USA's Constitution & To The American Way Of Life. God Help us All & most especially the Children.
I bet hes the reason Trump got there.
He's like the only fat guy from North Korea.
It's more than a Friendship. It's a Bromance.
Poor Dennis. If only he knew Kim is only using him to get to Jordan and Pippen.
How do they understand each other?
Atleast we'll also remember two clowns having met.
Y'all see the Eric André interview?
Rodman....a sincere heart in a world of crazy politicians...giggles. Back to World Cup now.
This is very Moving. I'm overjoyed that Dennis is such a diplomatic and EZ going American. He's a special person - Its EZ to see that God can use anyone to make a difference. Praise God for President Trump being as open minded as he is because we need open minded people who think ONLY they know how to get things done. We are BLESSED. Let us simply Give Thanks.
Kim Jong-un is a filthy evil murderer. Dennis Rodman is completely insane and needs to be medicated!
Dennis Rodman is the best guardian on the NBA..
...more faux news...they're ALL actors!!
Dennis Rodman will be 100% support by Mr. Kim Jong Un to be the next US president. it will total seal their frienship between US and N. Korea😘.
I knew i should of hade a 9mm for breakfast .
Raise your hand if, in the 90s, you ever thought Dennis Rodman would end up an ambassador for America.
Koreans dont.give a pot coin about no black folks in America..he sould be doin for his peeps here..trump dont give a crap about black foljs an when asked.about Rodman.?he politly make a joke of him.??i like dennis he plays good ball..thas like says ..stay in your lane..your a clown.Dennis you have no place here..either way trum or kim..aint gonna let POT COIN.GROWN pot there..LMAS..guy is an alwsys was a clown...all the rich celebs.a world speakers now..F$&!

'I considered shutting myself off from the world': Former Oakham rugby prodigy on going viral on YouTube
He was subject to a plethora of negative comments after a video of him went viral in 2015
Tyrese Johnson-Fisher' talent was exposed to millions on YouTube as a 15-year-old, playing rugby for Oakham School (Image: supplied)
It's 2015 and Tyrese Johnson-Fisher had just played in the semi-final of the NatWest Schools Cup for Oakham School under 15s.
It was a game that 15-year-old Johnson-Fisher's side won comfortably against Bishop Wordsworth's School.
He had scored four tries for his team but these were not just any normal tries; they displayed not only his lightning speed but also his bulldozer like physicality as he ploughed through the opposition.
Johnson-Fisher wasn't just you're average 15-year-old rugby player, he had first played football and athletics before he moved out to Dubai with his mum aged 10.
The talented sportsman was part of the Leicester Tigers academy until he was 18. (Image: supplied)
It was there in Dubai that he played football for Al-Wasl - Diego Maradona's academy. However, progression there was limited and along with his family, he moved to Oakham School to pursue dreams of becoming a professional sportsman.
"Sport was going to be my expertise so I thought I would look at places that facilitate that.
"I played three different sports growing up, football, rugby and athletics.
"In athletics, I was a sprinter, but I did everything. I was top 20 for long jump for my age and top 10 for 200m.
"I was part of Maradona's academy called Al-Wasl and I was progressing really well. But when it comes to the first team in Dubai you can only have two foreign players playing at the same time.
"Football is still my favourite sport. Football is the sport I love but I love playing other sport as an escape almost."

The now 20-year-old from Croydon had played rugby in Dubai before his move to Oakham.
But it was whilst in Leicestershire and Rutland that he found his first breakthrough into the public eye.
The semi-final of the Natwest Schools cup was recorded by England Rugby and they published a video of Tyrese's highlights from the match on their YouTube channel.
To date that YouTube video has over three million views and you can still watch it here.
"For me, it was just a shock because rugby doesn't get that same attention as football for example.
"So I thought I didn't know if there was a chance for me to show my skill on a world level.
"It was just humbling to be in a position that my name was out there."
"I never asked to go viral"
However, along with the praise and there also came a barrage of negativity that would be difficult for any 15-year-old to deal with.
"It was extremely humbling and I felt it was a good opportunity but it was difficult at the same time because I had to deal with a lot of negativity," he said.
"People telling me who I am and who I'm not. I never considered giving up sport but I did consider shutting myself away from the world.
"People would say that they look up to me and ask me for advice in one message, but in another message, there was someone telling me I'm not good enough and I'm never going to make it.
"I never asked to go viral. it was as much of a shock for me to see myself on England Rugby. But it's something that I'm learning to deal with as I get older.
"But at the end of the day, I'm blessed that I did go viral because maybe I wouldn't have had the opportunities that I did."
Now nearing the age of 21, Johnson-Fisher is chasing a dream of playing in the NFL. (Image: supplied)
Tyrese was part of the Leicester Tigers academy until the age of 18 when he left to play American football - a sport he thought would showcase his raw talent as an all-round athlete.
In 2017 he accepted a scholarship in the sport from Coastal Carolina University. But in 2019, he was pulled back to rugby in England by Bristol Bears, who offered him his first-ever professional contract.
He made one appearance for the Bears, who play in the Premiership, but left after a six-month stint at the club.
In total, the 20-year-old has left the sport three times, first in 2015 to focus on athletics, then again in 2017 before finally calling it a day earlier this year.
"I just feel as though I'm the best version of myself and that American football shows my raw ability.
"With rugby, I never really could be still and relax; there were so many bits that I needed to work on.
"I have full confidence in myself as athlete and I know that with God's guidance, my talent will shine through.
"I have one aim and one aim only of getting to the NFL, so now it's go time it's time to make the dream a reality," he finished.
The former Tigers academy player has recently signed for Garden City Community College in Kansas as a running back.
He has no plans to return to rugby, the sport that fired him into the spotlight.

Can large tires and low inflation pressures solve all your problems?
Producers view soil compaction as a prevalent problem – a problem to be avoided, if possible. There are several main theories on how to avoid or manage soil compaction.
Considerable effort has been taken on the part of equipment manufacturers to do two of these, by increasing tire size and reducing inflation pressures. This lowers ground contact pressures so there is less soil rutting and compaction.
The last two days saw record numbers of pork producers and industry professionals in London. "A Platform for Success", the 16th annual London Swine Conference (LSC) continued to build on the growth of recent years. Registration topped 400 this year for the sow day and over 250 for wean to finish. Sponsors and attendees from industry continue to be impressed with the number of primary producers who attend LSC.
Attendees were encouraged to think beyond their own business to consider the future of agriculture and food production in our changing culture. Other big picture issues discussed included antimicrobial resistance and the changing business structure of the North American hog industry.
On-farm topics dealt with barn management, health, nutrition, genetics, fertility and much more. Information was presented from leading researchers, academics and front line farm managers to blend the theory with applications on the farm.
One popular session by consultant Elaine Froese discussed planning for business transfers from generation to generation. Attendee comments included "This event was helpful, now to get the family on board" and "hoping to stop becoming a referee".
Conference proceedings are available online at www.londonswineconference.ca along with proceedings from all past conferences. New this year is a Highlights page that will share photos and comments about the conference in the next few weeks.
The London Swine Conference began in 2001, and continues as a joint effort of the University of Guelph, Ontario Pork, the Ontario Pork Industry Council and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs. Its main aim is to provide a forum for the exchange of credible, science-based information for decision makers and influencers in the pork industry, to encourage the exchange and adoption of knowledge for the betterment of the industry.

I'll start by defining some terms, then describe what variance features C# 2.0 and 3.0 already support today, and then discuss some ideas we are thinking about for hypothetical nonexistant future versions of C#.
As always, keep in mind that we have not even shipped C# 3.0 yet. Any of my musings on possible future additions to the language should be treated as playful hypotheses, rather than announcements of a commitment to ship any product with any feature whatsoever.
Today: what do we mean by "covariance" and "contravariance"?
T is bigger than U.
T is smaller than U.
T is equal to U.
T is not related to U.
For example, consider a type hierarchy consisting of Animal, Mammal, Reptile, Giraffe, Tiger, Snake and Turtle, with the obvious relationships. ( Mammal is a subclass of Animal, etc.) Mammal is a bigger type than Giraffe and smaller than Animal, and obviously equal to Mammal. But Mammal is neither bigger than, smaller than, nor equal to Reptile, it's just different.
Why is this relevant? Suppose you have a variable, that is, a storage location. Storage locations in C# all have a type associated with them. At runtime you can store an object which is an instance of an equal or smaller type in that storage location. That is, a variable of type Mammal can have an instance of Giraffe stored in it, but not a Turtle.
This idea of storing an object in a typed location is a specific example of a more general principle called the "substitution principle". That is, in many contexts you can often substitute an instance of a "smaller" type for a "larger" type.
Now we can talk about variance. Consider an "operation" which manipulates types. If the results of the operation applied to any T and U always results in two types T' and U' with the same relationship as T and U, then the operation is said to be "covariant". If the operation reverses bigness and smallness on its results but keeps equality and unrelatedness the same then the operation is said to be "contravariant".
That's totally highfalutin and probably not very clear. Next time we'll look at how C# 3 implements variance at present.
I'd love to hear that there are plans for covariant return types in future versions of C#. That's something I've sorely missed from C++ (specifically for virtual methods in abstract class factories).
Sorry to disappoint, but as I will discuss in part four or five of this series, odds are good that we are not going to get to covariant return types on virtual overrides in the hypothetical future next version of C#. We may, however, make certain variant reference type conversions legal. Hypothetically.
@AdamM : it is possible to return a subclass from a virtual method override in C++. Isn't this what you were referring to?
I think it's highly misleading to refer to types as being 'bigger' or 'smaller' than each other. They're not, in any canonical sense. They're supertypes and subtypes, and the subtype relation just happens to be a partial order — and there are many other partial orders over types. It's like saying that sets are bigger, smaller, equal or not related to other sets simply because the relation of is-a-subset-of happens to be a partial order. Replacing 'bigger' and 'smaller' with 'supertype' and 'subtype' in the above article makes it an order of magnitude clearer and more obvious.
No, it is not highly misleading. Your characterization of bigger/smaller is completely wrong in a world with variance in the type system.
Let me be absolutely crystal clear on this: SMALLER does NOT mean "is a subtype of". Absolutely not. The whole _point_ of my introducing a new term rather than using an existing term is to call attention to the fact that they are different.
Yes, a subtype is always smaller than its supertype, but introducing variance into the type system causes types which are NOT supertypes or subtypes of each other to have "smaller than" relationships. Conflating the two is wrong and misleading, which is why I was careful to not do so.
Read the article more carefully. I never said that "smaller than" means "is a subtype of". Rather, I said that "smaller than" means "is assignment compatible with", which is very different in a world with variant types.
If you still don't believe me, think about this. Is string smaller than object? Since C# supports covariant array types, yes it is. You can store an object of type string in a variable of type object. Now, answer me this: is string a subtype of object? Absolutely not! string's base type is System.Array, not object.
No, string is not smaller than object… because arrays have bidirectional data transfer they are neither covariant nor contravariant. The fact that C# treats array types as covariant breaks type safety and forces runtime type checks on array store operations, which would not otherwise be necessary.
Now IEnumerable<string> is, using your terminology, smaller than IEnumerable<object>… But there is also a subtype relationship present. There is not "derivation" in the .NET sense, but it IS a subtype. The fact that base type/derived type is no longer the only relationship that creates supertype/subtype status is why variance with generics is so important.
Ben, apparently you and I are using the same terms in different ways.
I am doing my best to be precise here. Let me state this again so as to be sure I am clear.
1) I am defining "covariant"/"contravariant" as "preserving/reversing a smaller-than relationship between types".
You are defining them to mean something else — I think you are defining them to mean "preserving/reversing a smaller-than relationship between types in a guaranteed-at-compile-time-typesafe manner"
Now, you are free to define those words any way you like, but that is not the standard way of defining "covariant" and "contravariant". For the rest of this series, I will stick with my definition.
2) I am defining "smaller" as "assignment-compatible in the CLR type system".
You are defining "smaller" to mean something else, since you are claiming that string is not smaller than object but IE<string> is smaller than IE<object>. Neither of those claims are true in the CLR today for my definition of "smaller", so therefore you must either be mistaken or you have some different definition of "smaller".
I'm not sure what your definition of "smaller" is exactly, though again, it appears to have something to do with the ability to determine type safety at compile time.
Again, you are free to use any definition of "smaller" you want, but this is the definition I have chosen for the purpose of this series of articles, so for the rest of this series, we'll stick with that.
And finally, you and I are using "subtype" to mean different things. By "subtype" I mean "is on the transitive closure of immediate base type". I am not sure what your definition of "subtype" is.
Your argument that array covariance in CLR/C# leads to runtime checks is entirely correct, as I pointed out in today's article. But that there are cases where this is broken does not mean that it is not covariant.
Again, you are free to define "covariant" as "guaranteed type safe covariant" if you want to. That is not how I am defining "covariant" for the purposes of this series of articles.
> I am defining "smaller" as "assignment-compatible in the CLR type system".
Thank you for finally defining this term. That helps tremendously.
You're welcome. I thought though that I had defined it already, in boldface. "At runtime you can store an object which is an instance of an equal or smaller type in that storage location."
I had the same misunderstanding tonight as other readers. In the literature I've read on type theory for programming languages, writers often take a type to be a set of values (that is, a subset of the set of all possible values), so when you started saying things like "T is bigger than U" I assumed you were talking about set containment, especially since you gave it the properties of a partial order (so we knew you weren't talking about cardinality.) When I came to your comment "At runtime you can store an object…" I took it as an important (hence the boldface) comment about the C# runtime system, but not a definition.
Welcome to the Thirty-Fourth issue of Community Convergence. This is a time when the team is in transition.
I have been wanting for a long time to do a series of articles about covariance and contravariance (which I will shorten to "variance" for the rest of this series.) I'll start by defining some terms, then describe what variance features C# 2.0 and 3.
You defined "smaller" as "assignment-compatible in the CLR type system" which includes "is a subtype of" relationship. I always thought of assignment-compatibility as: the right hand side value (RHS) must be of the same type or a subtype of the variable on the left hand side (LHS). Because of this, I do not get the definition of "smaller". Can you give me an example where the RHS is neither of the same type nor a subtype of the LHS? It would greatly help me understand variance. Thanks.
It would be helpful if you would make it more clear what inherits what.
Hi Eric, you say: At runtime you can store an object which is an instance of an equal or smaller type in that storage location. That is, a variable of type Mammal can have an instance of Giraffe stored in it.
Isnt Mammal the "smaller" object?
I like your use of the words small and large to describe relationships!


Jehoiada organizes the temple workers, Joash is anointed king, Athaliah is put to death, and the people rejoice.
3: and the entire assembly made a covenant with the king in the House of God. He said to them, "The son of the king shall be king according to the promise the LORD made concerning the sons of David.
14-15: Then the priest Jehoiada ordered out the army officers, the chiefs of hundreds, and said to them, "Take her out between the ranks, and if anyone follows her, put him to the sword." For the priest thought, "Let her not be put to death in the House of the LORD." They cleared a passage for her and she came to the entrance of the Horse Gate to the royal palace; there she was put to death.
16-17: Then Jehoiada solemnized a covenant between himself and the people and the king that they should be the people of the LORD. All the people then went to the temple of Baal; they tore it down and smashed its altars and images to bits, and they slew Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of the altars.
20: He took the chiefs of hundreds, the nobles, and the rulers of the people and all the people of the land, and they escorted the king down from the House of the LORD into the royal palace by the upper gate, and seated the king on the royal throne.

TxDOT Commission earmarks $34.2 million for Vidor Loop
Submitted by Sharon Brooks on August 3, 2017 - 4:14pm
After decades of discussion, the Texas Transportation Commission of the Texas Department of Transportation has authorized Orange County to move toward construction of the controversial Vidor Loop, or FM 299, earmarking $34.2 million for the project from TxDOT's pass-through toll program.
According to Item 7 on the commission's July 27 agenda, the commission was to "consider authorizing the executive director or designee to negotiate and execute a pass-through agreement with Orange County for construction of FM 299 at a new location from the intersection south of Walden Road and FM 105 to Conner Road (also called Center Road) and FM 105, for a distance of approximately 6.2 miles."
The TxDOT commission authorized the 2009-2010 pass-through program call for proposals Dec. 16, 2010, and Orange County submitted a proposal to construct FM 299 under a pass-through agreement. May 26, 2011, the commission selected Orange County's proposal as providing the best value to the state and granted conditional authority to the department to pursue negotiations if staff were unable to successfully negotiate any of the top proposals listed above Orange County. At the commission's Sept. 29, 2011, meeting the commission was advised that there was funding available for Orange County's proposal under the 2009-2010 program call. Nov. 29, 2011, the department notified Orange County that it could begin negotiations on the financial terms of a pass-through agreement, which were subsequently completed and are reflected in the Minute Order.
July 27, nearly six years after Orange County was notified that it could begin negotiations, Benjamin H. Asher, director of the Project Finance, Debt and Strategic Contracts Division at TxDOT, told the commission Orange County was ready to move forward with the $64 million construction project.
During the meeting, Asher told the commission, "The Orange County Court voted to move forward with the project in October 2016. Given the time between the program call and the decision to move forward, the county will be required to start construction by June 2019. Staff recommends approval."
The Orange County Commissioners Court did vote to move forward with the project last year, but many cities in the county passed resolutions in opposition to the construction of the roadway, with some representatives citing the county's financial difficulties over the last several years as a reason for the county not to invest in such a project.
Vidor Mayor Robert Viator spoke out against the proposed roadway on multiple occasions. He approached the Transportation Commission on July 26 to explain why.
"When I look through your list of…eligibility considerations, 'local public support for project' (is on the list)," Viator said. "This project has been around well over 20 years. I started getting involved with it roughly six years ago. Every meeting we've had … has been attended with large opposition. The public support for this program is minimal at best."
Viator pointed out that five cities in Orange County unanimously passed resolutions in opposition to FM 299, indicating a lack of support from the majority of the population.
"Those five cities represent approximately 53 percent, more than likely a little more, of the county," Viator asserted.
The mayor pointed to a lack of traffic congestion in the city as a reason the Loop is unnecessary, in his opinion, commending TxDOT for efforts to improve previously poor conditions.
"Years ago, when this project was dreamed up, FM 105 was a two-lane highway, and going north, it was, at times, pretty dangerous. … They expanded 105 – two lanes going each way with a turning lane in the center. The work you're doing on I-10 through our area, the work you did where I-10 crosses Highway 90 has relieved some railroad traffic issues we had on the south side of Vidor. Expanding to six lanes on the interstate going toward Beaumont and the Neches River Bridge is some outstanding work that I believe is going to be completed probably by the end of the year. We thank you for those benefits because it has really helped our situation. Because of that, I can look at you and tell you, we don't have traffic congestion in Vidor, Texas."
Viator said he was also concerned about the expense of the project and the ecological impact the road's construction could have on the wetlands it would run through.
"If you go ahead tomorrow and decide to move forward with the project, you're looking at spending $34 million — (that's) what you're reimbursement to the county will be," Viator reasoned. "That's $34 million, and you have a lot of projects where it could be used. I just don't see spending it on a project that goes through what the (Army Corps of Engineers) has deemed as perfect an example of wetlands as you'll ever see. In fact, one of the Corps' comments in some form back in 1998 is that this project actually has 'a snowball's chance in hell of getting a permit.' That's actually the quote in their answer. In 2013, the EPA declined the permit. So it faces major, major environmental issues."
"The need for this road is just not there," Viator concluded.
Texas Conservation Alliance Executive Director Janice Bezanson also spoke in opposition to FM 299. She said her organization and others have formed the Coalition Opposed to FM 299.
"There are eight organizations within this coalition," Bezanson described. "Together, we total a membership of 87,000 Texans. We are very much opposed to this, and there's a long list of reasons why this project should not go forward."
"The environmental impacts would be severe," Bezanson continued. "I don't know how many of you have been to the Big Thicket National Preserve, but it's one of the most biologically diverse places in the entire world, absolutely gorgeous. It is an element of the National Parks system, and it is an economic driver for this region of $7.9 million a year. This proposed loop would go for two and a half miles right along the boundary of the Big Thicket National Preserve, sometimes coming as close as 340 feet.
"Almost the entire loop is through wetlands, and these are wetlands of national importance. These are very significant wetlands within the 100-year floodplain of the Neches River. Because of the wetlands and because of the floodplain, this road would have to be elevated. It would have to be built up, which could cause all kinds of interesting changes in the hydrologic regime of the area. The Fish and Wildlife Service has expressed a lot of concern about flooding issues."
Bezanson said she believed the majority of the public is in opposition to the project.
"When we started forming this coalition, we got a tremendous response from local people," she asserted. "They're very concerned about it. They really don't see why it needs to happen. They think it's going to be detrimental, and it's going to be very, very expensive. We're talking about a county that only has about 85,000 people, and the average income is about $25,000. This is a huge amount of money for them to be fronting and for them to paying their portion of it."
Bezanson said if the commission chose to vote in favor of the agenda item, "We specifically request that the controlled access policy be strictly enforced, that there be no waivers granted for access points, interchanges, access roads, because that would greatly increase the impacts on the wetlands. And, we would request that you designate this as a private developer project so there would be a competitive procurement program for who it is that builds this project.
"What we really ask is that you just say 'no' to Item 7 tomorrow."
At the July 27 meeting, Orange County Commissioner for Pct. 4 Jody Crump spoke in favor of the Vidor Loop.
"I'm an absolute advocate of this project. This project has been around for many, many years. It started out as a dream, and slowly through the decades … coming to fruition. The wheels of the government turn slow.
"Talking about mitigating traffic congestion and economic development moving forward – I think that's what this project does. I think it addresses it very specifically."
Crump said the city of Vidor did experience congestion regularly, an argument to the mayor's comments to the commission.
"There's about 87,000 vehicles a day that pass over Interstate 10," Crump estimated. "We're that small bedroom community just inside the Louisiana border and just before you get into Jefferson County and Beaumont, Texas. We have a lot of individuals that peel off at that interstate, come onto that main street thoroughfare, and the congestion is pretty substantial there, especially in the mornings and afternoons and those times of the days. A lot of those vehicles come through.
"We see this as an opportunity to do both things – to relieve that congestion right in that area … but also the idea of creating this additional corridor 299, it creates that area for economic development. It opens that area back up."
Crump said environmental concerns were "not a problem."
"We know there's some environmental issues out there," Crump remarked. "We're sensitive to that. … TxDOT has this wonderful process and protocol in place that's been used for many, many years. We'll follow every criteria that's set in place. We're not going to shortchange the system or bypass anything. We'll be completely transparent."
Commissioner Jeff Austin said the commission had received numerous letters, both "pro and con," about the proposed project. He said the pass-through toll program is "a tool we don't use anymore" but lauded its success in other counties, like Montgomery and Titus. He said the commitment had been made years earlier, and a vote for the proposal would make good on that commitment, pointing out the proposal must clear some hurdles before construction could begin.
"This minute order is going to allow us to follow through on our commitment," Austin said. "Just because we do our part approving this, this does not mean this road is going to be built. This project still has to go through the environmental concerns and get all the other financial structures in place, which means if they don't start construction by the end of June 2019, then this commitment goes away."
The commission voted unanimously in favor of the project.
Following the vote, Viator said he hoped the project would never see the light of day in spite of the commission's approval. He said he was disappointed and felt like the TxDOT commissioners and local county commissioners were not representing the public's interest. And, he said, that led him to a big decision.
Vidor Mayor running for commissioner
Viator revealed he is running for Pct. 4 Commissioner in Orange County in 2018 against incumbent Jody Crump, who has already announced his candidacy.
Viator said it is "time for change," and expressed concern that the current Commissioners Court is not accurately representing the citizens of Vidor and the surrounding area.
In a statement to The Examiner, Viator said, "A lot of the time you hear people complain that elected officials are not listening to the will of the people on a federal or state level. It's a sad state of affairs when local officials choose only to represent special interests or a small portion of the population. It's time for a change, and it's time 'we the people' of Pct. 4 are represented - not just the special interests or select few."
Viator said when people refer to "the Vidor community," that community encompasses many more people than live within the incorporated area of Vidor. He said he often received calls from people who say they are Vidor residents but actually reside within the unincorporated area in west Orange County.
"My biggest frustration as mayor is... when you are the mayor of Vidor, about 50 percent of your calls are from people you are not elected to represent," he explained. "I understand they are part of the Vidor community, but I don't have any legal authority to represent them. So, in trying to help them with issues they have, you're hands are tied (as mayor). That's been the biggest frustration I've had the whole time I've been mayor."
He said as a mayor who strives to help the citizenry, it is upsetting when he is unable to help. Viator said he believed he can better represent the Vidor community and all Pct. 4 residents as county commissioner.
"I do not feel like we've been represented well," Viator expressed. "I feel like a small group of people is influencing our representatives, who are supposed to represent all of us. How can I make represent the people that I haven't been able to over the last 5 and half years or so? The only way I can do that is to move up to the next level."
Viator will face Crump for the Republican nomination in the March 2018 primaries.

TechsPlace | Search Engine Optimization – three words that have become commonplace in the current landscape of marketing due to the sheer level of importance they hold right now. After all, search engines have become so prevalent in the internet space that it has become the need of the hour for businesses to understand the relevance of sites like Google and see to it that their ranking on these search engines is at a respectable level. This, in incredibly simplified terms, is what SEO is all about – adopting certain marketing practices that help improve the visibility of the website on search engines which, in turn, improves overall traffic.
However, simply knowing about the concept of SEO doesn't ensure that your marketing strategies will witness breakthrough success. Here are some things that a business needs to keep in mind if they wish to optimize their SEO practices and make the most of their investment in this particular marketing strategy.
Get an understanding of how SEO works: It's honestly surprising as to how many businesses skip this crucial step. After all, it's imperative to attain some basic knowledge about SEO before one can choose to practice this strategy from the get-go. Learning the basic concepts and then educating oneself about more complicated terminologies is the preferred course of action to take. Google actually has a starter guide that will help immensely in this regard, along with a few courses to understand the more complicated aspects of this strategy.
Understand Search Engine Marketing (SEM): One might think that Search Engine Marketing and Search Engine Optimization are two different things, which is right to an extent. However, at the same time, someone can also argue that they're two sides of the same coin. Therefore, it's imperative to ensure that a business understands the various strategies that fall under the umbrella of Search Engine Marketing. Knowing about these strategies and executing them to a T is a sure-fire way to ensure success for your entire digital marketing strategy, including SEO.
Track and analyze the metrics: SEO is all about the numbers, which makes it essential for businesses to understand exactly what makes this strategy tick. This is where SEO metrics come into play. Everything from keywords, hits, rankings, and whatnot play a critical role in measuring the effectiveness of your SEO strategy. If a business wants a respectable ranking on a Search Engine Rankings Page (or SERP for short) for their website, then these metrics should be analyzed at all times for greater effect. Google Analytics is probably the best and most popular tool in this regard.
Stay updated about the rules: There are no such things as hard-and-fast rules in SEO. The algorithms that govern the functioning of search engines keep on changing all the time. Becoming an SEO expert mandates the need to stay up-to-date with these ever-changing rules so that the SEO campaigns being carried out presently don't become irrelevant. Something as simple as reading up on SEO news outlets and figuring out what Google is up to will go a long way in this regard.
Becoming an SEO expert is by no means an easy goal to accomplish, but keeping the above things in mind will go a long way in attaining this achievement. With the sheer importance that SEO holds in the current day and age, it's vital to ensure that the strategies revolving around this aspect of digital marketing are correctly and efficiently executed.

"Every film [I made], I tried to interest myself in it by doing something not previously done in film technique," was the credo of native New Zealander Len Lye (1901–1980, born Leonard Charles Huia Lye). His path to becoming an eclectic modern artist – experimental filmmaker, kinetic sculptor and photographer, poet and theorist – was determined in his childhood when, following his father's early death, he moved in with his stepfather, a lighthouse keeper: the constant sight of the sea sparked a fascination in young Len for wave patterns and nature's multifaceted forms, which became driving forces in his creative work.
Lye's family did not have enough money to pay for his university studies. Instead, he educated himself autodidactically at the public library and in part-time courses at art school. He would remain a visionary loner: it is hard to place his works in the usual art-historical categories and he never gained a wide audience, although he did become an important inspiration for other artists in film and sculpture. His move to England in 1926 allowed him to gain a foothold in the local avant-garde visual arts scene and he soon began working with film. With its unusual fusion of modern art and the indigenous traditions of his home country, Tusalava (1929) marked his impressive debut.
Commissioned by the British post office's innovative GPO Film Unit in the 1930s, Lye was able to produce a series of groundbreaking, largely abstract short films, including A Colour Box (1934) and Rainbow Dance (1936). With their intoxicating use of the new possibilities afforded by color film stock and animation, they form the core of the first program of this cycle of Collection on Screen. The second program combines his equally imaginative and mind-blowing live action films produced during World War Two for the British Ministry of Information along with the further innovations of his late work: in 1944, Lye relocated to New York and developed more methods for continuing his experiments. In both his work and his unorthodox appearance, Len Lye embodied the concept of joy in experimentation like hardly any other 20th century (film) artist.
His unique films have long been a part of the Austrian Film Museum's collection, which is also home to his study materials, the focus of the third program in the cycle. (Christoph Huber / Translation: Ted Fendt)
This program was originally scheduled to take place on November 27 and 28, 2021, but was postponed due to Corona.

Archeology, Rome History
Roman Plumbing: Overrated
Ancient Rome's toilets, sewers, and bathhouses may have been innovative, but they didn't do much to improve public health.
Though the ancient Romans may be more well-known for things like military prowess and leafy hats, they have also been lauded for being awesome at toilets.The book 100 Ideas That Changed the World cites the flush toilet as one of those ideas, and calls the Romans "ahead of their time" for their adoptions of public toilets.
"After the collapse of the Roman Empire, toilet technology came to a bit of a standstill," the book reads.
The Romans did build many structures seemingly dedicated to improving sanitation—in addition to public toilets, they had bathhouses and sewer systems like the giant Cloaca Maxima in Rome.
"They [also] introduced legislation so that towns had to clear away the waste from the roads and things and take all that waste mess outside towns," says Piers Mitchell, a paleopathologist at the University of Cambridge. "You'd expect those things to improve the health of the people that lived there as a result."

Neighborhood restaurateur predicts brighter times ahead for city's dining establishments
by Dan Murphy • February 18, 2021 • 0 Comments
While the first month of 2021 brought paltry earnings for many of the city's already struggling dining establishments, one well-established neighborhood restaurateur foresees brighter times on the horizon for them.
"January certainly was bleak, but with the news of the vaccines, the election finally being over, and, most importantly, the lifting of the 9:30 curfew, along with allowing 40-percent capacity, it has been tremendously helpful," said Babak Bina, who, with his sister, Azita Bina-Seibel, owns and operates Bin 26 Enoteca on Charles Street, as well as jm Curley and its steakhouse, Bogie's Pace, in Downtown Crossing – all under the BiNA Family Hospitality umbrella. "It's sad that many restaurants in and surrounding Boston, and across the country, have gone out of business permanently. However, I feel those of us who somehow or another have hung in there will benefit in the months and years to come."
Bina understands both the 9:30 p.m. curfew and 25-percent capacity that were temporarily imposed on restaurants in the city and across the state came as a necessary and well-advised response to the surge in COVID-19 cases following Thanksgiving, but, he said, that did nothing to lessen the blow for these dining establishments.
"It was certainly prudent by the state and city government," he said. "Nonetheless, it was still devastating."
Moreover, Bina realizes that no restaurant can ever recoup business they've lost so far to the pandemic, especially during the holiday season, which, he said, has traditionally been boon times in his industry.
"We really didn't have much of a holiday season," he said. "Holiday parties – those were nonexistent – along with gift cards, and the second thing that has carried us through January in the past is New Year's Eve, which give us hibernation money, and we didn't have any of those. That's why many restaurateurs decided to shut down after New Year's Eve for possible reopening in the spring."
But even in the face of diminished revenues, BiNA Family Hospitality's restaurants have remained open to accommodate their loyal clientele.
"We made a conscious decision to keep Bin 26 and jm Curley and Bogie's Pace open after meeting internally between ownership and management staff," Bina said. "We felt strongly that we want to live by the motto of being there for our guests when they want to come and dine out."
One promising sign for the future, he added, is that "many restaurants have hit the ground looking for available space to rent."
Bina said, "Just on Beacon Hill, we have a few happenings related to restaurant concepts that will become public knowledge very soon."

The Presidential Developing or the Primary executive Home, known as Rashtrapati Bhavan in Hindi, is the formal property of the Primary executive of Native indian. This wide house is in the European end of Parliament Street in New Delhi, the investment of Native indian.
The Rashtrapati Bhavan is one of the biggest personal homes of any Head of the State in the world in terms of its size, vastness and its elegance. This outstanding piece of the English era was the property of the Viceroy of Native indian until the season 1950 and was known as the Viceroy's Home.
The spectacular structure of Rashtrapati Bhavan was developed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, a English architech, along with Primary designer and Primary Professional Hugh Keeling and many Native indian companies.
The Rashtrapati Bhavan was formally inaugurated in the season 1931 and was designed at a cost of 877,136 pounds (Rs. 12.8 million). The Rashtrapati Bhavan was designed with a floor area of 200 000 sq ft and has four surfaces and 340 bedrooms. There are over 54 bed bedrooms together with additional housing for visitors in the Primary executive Home. The entire building was construted using 700 thousand rocks and three thousand cubic legs of rocks. Remarkably, there were hardly any metal used to create the Rashtrapati Bhavan. Another exciting fact about the Rashtrapati Bhavan is that the property, which was expected to have finished in four decades took a rather quite a while of over 17 decades to get finished and just after one season of its achievement, Native indian got its freedom.
The Rashtrapati Bhavan of Native indian is perhaps one of the best known typical monuments of the country and one of the most significant success of Sir Lutyens. It is a magnum opus of balance, self-discipline, summarize, color and balance. Master Irwin was the first tenant of the Developing. The structure of the Home includes Mughal and European structural designs.
Towards free airline of the Rashtrapati Bhavan, can be found the huge Mughal lawn developed again by Sir Lutyens. This wonderful lawn has blossoms and plants, along with sequence of eye-catching features that make it all the more eye-catching. The Mughal Garden is home to plenty of charming blossoms such as some types of unique flowers, which simply brighten up the atmosphere. The lawn reveals for public every springtime during the months of Feb and Goal among limited security.
The Rashtrapati Bhawan can be achieved through cabs or autoriskshaws from any part of the city. Get into to the Rashtrapati Bhavan is prohibited without authorization and the allows to visit the Bhawan can be acquired from the wedding celebration office on Raisina Street.

Is RegTech the new FinTech? The number of startups aiming to simplify regulation processes with technology is certainly on the rise. One of those startups is Alyne.
Founded in 2015, the company not only makes technology risk management more cost effective for heavily regulated industries such as the finance sector, but also makes it easier.
They focus on topics such as cyber risks, data protection and compliance for concerns and medium-sized businesses. According to a study, the market volume is expected to grow to approximately 35 billion euros.
Software as a service (SaaS) solutions are used, for example, to help a German bank simultaneously verify whether several dozen IT suppliers are actually following cyber and data protection guidelines. The process runs automatically on the platform. It is scalable and can be used intuitively, which means the bank no longer needs to maintain or compare hundreds of Excel tables.
The only aspect that remains a major challenge for the startup is sales. Finding the right contact person in a company – be it the information officer, security officer or risk officer – can take a long time. This is where the founders make use of their extensive network.
The four founders got to know one another more than ten years ago while they were all employed by a large consulting company. Over the years, their paths continued to cross. One of their former employers is now a customer and one of the startup's partners.
Alyne provides a clear overview with a focus on user-friendliness.
Alyne is also successful when it comes to content marketing. The company has already been able to win over several customers with the company blog and additional articles. One of the most compelling elements has been their 'Manual for your first 100 days as an IT security officer.' Readers identify with the advice, and often stay on board with the startup after running through the features of the trial version.
He mentioned that employees are the most limiting factor, because they are forced to find additional time for testing.
The keyword here is employees, with the RegTech startup planning to make some major changes in the near future. In order to scale up and advance their sales and product development, the four founders are currently in the midst of their first round of financing. While initial discussions based on personal contacts were conducted in Spring 2016, Alyne was brand new on the market at that point, and it was much too early for a financing round.
said Sulistyo. The ongoing exchange of information with investors has intensified over the last few months. And now?
added the founder. After all, the day-to-day business has to keep functioning alongside meetings with investors.
Until now, the startup has been entirely self-financed. The four founders have yet to receive a paycheck. However, they have been able to cover the initial investments with their monthly turnover. Some additional, quite lucrative, orders are also within reach.
At the moment, however, the largest investment is the time that the founders are putting into developing their business. They quit their jobs in mid-2015 and have been without a fixed income ever since – something that is not easy in Munich, especially since two of the founders have children.
What motivates a person to start a company under these kinds of conditions? One incentive is wanting to create real added value by making an excellent product. Another reason is the desire to do something of your own.
The founders agreed, "If we don't do it now, we never will." The four have known each other long enough to really appreciate what each has to offer. The team constellation also seems to be impressing potential investors.
Alyne's acceptance to the London-based Techstars Accelerator has also been helpful. The network of established FinTech accelerators should help them gain a stronger footing in the UK market. Being a part of the program also attracts international attention.
Sulistyo revealed that they have already had a call from a VC in Silicon Valley. Even if it was still much too early on in the game, having these kinds of contacts can be useful in the long run. While the first round of financing should hopefully come to a successful conclusion before long, the four founders are far from resting on their laurels.

March 1932, New York. Dan Shackelton is an Irish migrant. Like many of his fellow countrymen, he has found work on the construction site of the Rockefeller Center. He is to replace Ryan Murphy, a worker who died on the site. Dan works with a quiet, broad-shouldered man named Giant who is in charge of informing Ryan Murphy's family of the news. But Giant decides not to say anything. Instead, he sends a substantial sum of money accompanied by an unsigned, typewritten letter. When he receives a response from Ryan's widow, Mary Ann, Giant writes to her again, tangling himself up in a web of lies. Little by little, the enigmatic Giant starts to come out of his shell, until one day, when Mary Ann shows up in New York with her two children, ready to join her husband.

Innovative technologies streamline inventory operations and improve customer service.
A new generation of innovative management tools is giving forward-looking retailers improved control over their supply chain, warehouse and store inventories while taking customer service to new heights.
Technology is driving both disruption and opportunity, says Katie Kean, an IBM global consumer industry vice president and chief technology officer. "It is technology that has enabled nontraditional competitors, such as nimble born-in-the-cloud entrants, to take market share from established brands by being able to quickly pivot to meet the ever-changing needs of the consumer," she says.
But more and more, the real competition no longer involves brick-and-mortar stores versus online retailers. Instead, the competition is among retailers that can improve inventory operations to optimize multiple channels. Multichannel retailers are managing their operations to serve customers in ways that online-only merchants can't match. One innovative approach, Kean notes, involves optimizing the supply chain and managing inventory to predict and manage demand at a local level. "This enables a retailer to meet the needs of the consumer even before they know they want it," she says. "This requires technology to combine multiple types of data — from both inside and outside of the organization — to uncover new, actionable insights."
Integrating online and in-store inventory management allows retailers to blur the line between the competing shopping models, enabling them to offer customers the best of both worlds. In whatever ways customers prefer to shop, the most effective retailers meet their needs. Top retailers can offer in-store pickup of online sales, or store-based sales associates can have items shipped to a customer's home if they're out of stock in a particular store.
Mobile devices and apps are also tools that retailers use to compete against online merchants. Tablets, for example, give retailers the ability to improve customer loyalty and derive more meaningful insights based on what happens on the store floor, says Jeremy Witikko, Cisco Systems' global retail business development manager. "Retailers can use wayfinding to pick online orders that are being fulfilled from the store floor faster with less labor," he says. An app instantly compares the list of items needed to their locations in the store, giving the picker an optimized path to follow.
Meanwhile, efficient management at the point of sale (POS) helps retailers better organize and optimize their entire inventory. As items are sold, they can be ordered and replaced as needed. "Many companies have a 'sled,' or adapter, for mobile devices that allows them to be transformed into a mobile point of sale (mPOS) device, allowing store associates to process sales in place, improving the customer experience," says Michael Brewer, retail and hospitality product marketing manager for Aruba Networks.
Asset tracking helps store managers understand just how many products of a particular type are currently on the sales floor at any given time, and also the average number of days on the floor for each item. "When this data is processed through an inventory analytics platform, retailers can get deep insights that help them make better, more profitable merchandising decisions, such as what 'stale' inventory should be transferred to another region where it might sell better," Brewer explains.
Parker estimates that most retailers have an inventory accuracy of about 60 percent. With the explosion of omnichannel commerce, retailers need to know in real time exactly what products they have available and how they will be delivered: at the point of sale, in-store pickup, to the customer's site and so on. "To enable these use cases, retailers must increase their investment in processing, networking and storage," he says.
"Retailers need a robust, pervasive, secure network infrastructure that's capable of supporting not just operational technologies, but also technologies that elevate the customer experience, such as location-based services, that can provide real-time, contextually relevant experiences," Brewer says.
Brewer also recommends investing in cloud and in-store edge processing technologies, as well as cloud application and storage services. "For real-time analytics and insights, edge computing — or the ability to perform data processing at the edge of the network, near the source of the data — is a must," he says.
Surveillance cameras focused on distribution centers, store inventory areas, sales floors and other theft-prone locations create a permanent, continuous security record. Many retailers also integrate cameras into foot traffic, analytics and other solutions to boost security, staff productivity and sales.
RFID tags attached to merchandise at manufacturing, or upon its arrival at a distribution center, allow retailers to track products as they move from one stage of the supply chain to the next.
Poor stock control typically leads to misplaced merchandise and revenue-robbing discrepancies. A strong and reliable inventory management system makes product tracking almost effortless while enabling retailers to pinpoint security weak spots.
Downloadable mobile apps, such as SAP Mobile Inventory Manager, allow staff to conduct accurate physical inventory counts with a mobile phone or tablet, enabling on-the-spot discovery of missing items.

Shelby County Players continues its 30th anniversary season-long celebration with another fan favorite this weekend, "Rapunzel," the story of a princess who spends her childhood trapped in a doorless tower by a witch after her parents give her up.
"Rapunzel" is the second of five shows selected by last season's audience for the 30th anniversary season and will debut at 7:30 p.m. today at the Strand Theatre, 215 S. Harrison St.
The hour-long show returns at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and again at 2 p.m. Sunday, and returns to the stage next weekend.
Lori Soehren was asked by the artistic team to direct the show and said rehearsals have been going well despite being limited in what they could do until this week.
She said they were unable to rehearse climbing the tower at SCP Offstage because of its height and they spent the beginning of this week working those types of challenges out. There are several instances where the witch, who has trapped Rapunzel in the tower after taking her from her parents because they stole fruit, scales the wall using Rapunzel's hair. There are a couple other times where the prince does the same after discovering Rapunzel from her singing.
Soehren first joined Shelby County Players in 2009 when she portrayed the witch in the children's program, "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs of the Black Forest."
"I've always been an advocate for children's theatre so it seemed like full circle, (a) good fit to do this," she said.
The interactive show features Brooke Dennis as Rapunzel, Wyatt Schonfeld as the prince, Kit Fleck as Rapunzel's mother, Dion Lee as Rapunzel's father, Chris Cox as the witch and Letitia Clemons as the comedic dragon.
The show is child-friendly but families should be aware that cast members will be off stage, running around the aisles in the theatre at times throughout the performance and will be interacting with the crowd.
Tickets are $5 in advance and can be bought at Mickey's T-Mart at 748 S. Harrison Street or online at shelbycountyplayers.com/ticketsalesYoungAudience.html. Tickets sold at Mickey's must be paid for by cash or check.
They will also be available at the door for $6 apiece.
Shelby County Players continues its 30th anniversary celebration with "Blithe Spirit" starting in late February, followed by "The Odd Couple (Female Version) in late April and "Nunsense II" in August.


Thinking about homeschooling? Here are 10 reasons not to homeschool.
Did you know that according to the National Center for Educational Statistics, only 3% of school-age children are home schooled? Sure that may mean more than 1.5 million children who are learning outside of a traditional school setting, but still….that's a pretty low number.
For those who are considering home schooling, it can be daunting. They invariably worry about thatquestion (the one about socialization), they worry about curriculum, and they worry that their child will somehow suffer by being kept home. That's a whole lot of worry and a whole lot of reasons not to homeschool.
Look, every family is different. Every child is different. Every season in life is different. It's okay to say, "We're going to do this now, but we'll re-evaluate at the end of the year to make sure it still works for us." That's a healthyresponse.
It's also okay to look at all of the options and say, "This isn't going to work for us." Only you know what's best for your family.
The reasons we home school today are not necessarily the reasons we initially started to home school eight years ago. However, that doesn't make the initial reasons or our reasons now any less valid.
If you are still weighing the pros and cons, here are 10 reasons why you should not home school your children to give you another perspective.
1. Don't home school if you want a lot of free time.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but sometimes home schooling is like herding cats. You'll be lucky to shower every day.
2. Don't home school if your kids are vehemently against it.
When the kids are little, it's easier to home school if they have never been to public school. If, however, your kids have been in a traditional school setting and they really don't want to home school, you're going to have to weigh the pros and cons of the battles that will surely ensue. Why do you want to and they don't?
3. Don't home school if you don't believe in it.
If your heart isn't in it, save yourself and your family the agony – don't do it. You have to believe it's the right thing for your family at this time in your lives.
4. Don't home school if you're not willing to put the work into it.
Classroom teachers don't wake up every day and hope for the best in the classroom (I was one, so I know of what I speak), they plan, they prepare, and they constantly re-evaluate what they're doing.
As a home schooling parent, you have to be willing to do that. Even if you use a boxed curriculum or use an online program like Easy Peasy, you still have to plan and prepare.
If you're unschooling, you still have to do think about what your kids are learning and give them those opportunities to explore and learn. Don't shortchange yourself or your kids by thinking there's no work involved.
5. Don't home school if you don't like spending time with your kids.
I'm serious. If you're a parent who dreads the weekends, days off from school, and summer vacations, because the kids are home…you might want to rethink the whole home schooling thing.
6. Don't home school if you think all kids learn the same way.
I have three kids who all learn in different ways. As their mom and teacher, it is my responsibility (and honor) to give them materials and lessons and opportunities that will help them learn best.
That means watching, listening, and talking with them about their education. If I tried to teach all three of them the same way, we'd be a mess.
7. Don't home school if you're not willing to give up a spotless house.
You would think that if you're home all day the housework would get done. Wrong. So, so wrong.
The fact is that when you home school and work from home like I do, house work means a 15 minute sweep of the house to pick up shoes, toys, books, papers, those ~~foot stabbing~~ abundant Legos, and run the vacuum.
If you're really lucky, you manage to throw a few loads of laundry in and wipe some things down with disinfecting wipes. You know what? It's okay! Learning happens here and I wouldn't want it any other way. But if you do, maybe home schooling isn't for you.
8. Don't home school if you know everything.
One of the absolute greatest pleasures I get from home schooling is discovering and learning new things with the kids. Whether it is learning what a Viking burial mound looks like and why it looks that way (thank you, Minecraft Homeschool), or having one of them do independent research and then tell me all about Hero Rats, homeschooling gives us the opportunity to learn something really cool each and every day.
If you already know everything or you are not willing to learn, you might want to rethink home schooling. Remember…your curiosity and enthusiasm fuels your children's curiosity and enthusiasm.
9. Don't home school if you aren't willing to go outside the house for opportunities.
Now that we're a one car family, our time out is very limited. However, that doesn't stop us from finding opportunities for the kids to interact with peers while taking TaeKwon Do or art and music classes at the local community arts center.
It is great to be home, but you're going to go stir crazy if you are not willing to at least go to the library or meet up with other homeschoolers every now and then. Don't be afraid to get out.
10. Don't home school if you're not willing to learn the home school laws in your state.
Contrary to what many believe, most states have quite a few laws regarding home schooling. You may be required to declare your home schooling intentions by a specific date, you may have to submit evaluations, and you may have to be registered through a private school.
The bottom line is, you must find out the laws in your stateandunderstand and abide bythem. If you're not willing to do that, please don't home school. One uninformed/law breaking home school family can bring out the crazy in the anti-homeschool camp. Please, please learn and follow the law.
I can't tell you whether home schooling is a good option for your family or not, but I can tell you that I firmly believe it's a great option. For us, it works.
And I hope that after you search your heart and really examine why you're considering it, that it works for you too. The experience will absolutely change your world.

Q: Passing in default date for Bootstrap DateTimePicker I have a page with multiple input elements e.g.
<input data-default="2015-05-19 09:21:29" type="text" class="form-control datetimepicker">

This is my jQuery:-
$('input.datetimepicker').datetimepicker({locale:'en-gb', defaultDate:$(this).data('default')});

The default date part is not working, is there a better way to go about this?

A: [Heavily updated]. Seems to be a scope problem. $(this) refers to the initialization object, not the input being datetimepickered'
$('input.datetimepicker').each(function(i, e) {
    $(e).datetimepicker({
        locale:'en-gb',
        defaultDate: $(e).data('default')
    });
});

demo -> http://jsfiddle.net/hdhdy6w2/ or http://jsfiddle.net/hdhdy6w2/1/ with two input boxes and different dates.

A: Try this:
var dateElement = $('input.datetimepicker');
var defaultDate = new Date(dateElement.data('default'))
dateElement.datetimepicker({
  locale:'en-gb',
  defaultDate: defaultDate
});
