I was quite certain you'd thank me.
But, as so often happens as I write, my thoughts evolved and I was myself converted. Here's what happened.
I've long divided the world into camps, tribes if you will. I've done it somewhat tongue in cheek, but still, I've done it.
Another of my many "Two Different Types of People" — Which one are you?
In my teens there were the motor boat people vs. the sailboat people. As a young career woman I realized that PC/DOS folks were different from MAC/Apple people.
When I first married, I discovered there was another way to hang TP — those who hang it so it drops off from below. Whoever heard of such nonsense?
There are the snow birds vs. the "I live to ski" folks; and dog people vs. cat people. And never the twain shall meet, except that they do.
I've floated among these various tribes over the years — except for the TP one; that one's pretty solidly fixed.
The competing tribes get deadly as we go back in history.
Think CRUSADES at the beginning of the first millennia. Then, there was that epic struggle for Catholic or Protestant dominance, following the Reformation in the early 1500s. Some think it was merely THE THIRTY YEARS WAR, but it actually lasted a few centuries.
We've come a long way, but at least we're not killing each other so much.
I could stay on this path and talk about the rise in hate crimes and the tragic deaths that have resulted in our too recent past — an important post, which I'll save for another time.
For now, I'm looking at how easily we latch onto a side, hang on to it as though our life depended upon it, and bombard the opposition with "facts." And when we do, we can't hear each other.
Dichotomies surround us. I gave you a bunch of them ranging from the totally irrelevant through the tentatively entertaining to the terribly serious. I'm sure you could add a dozen more.
They all have a few things in common and today I thought we'd pull apart what they are.
We couch them in terms of right and wrong, good and evil, for better or worse.
During the Crusades (As we in the West were taught), the Christians were the good guys.
Who the good guys were during the Reformation, the Thirty Years War, the Civil War, or in any confrontation, depends on which side you are on. Isn't that always the key?
I'm going to use the modern-day WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org debate as our politically safe example. Fellow bloggers will understand.
It's easy for WordPress.org to claim "bestness." It is the blogging platform the blogging gurus recommend, the one that plays nice with many useful plugins, the one that allows me to stay in control of my content.
It's simply the one (and only) way to blogging heaven, according to those in the .org camp. Me among them.
My first blogging guru recommended it and my initial web designer insisted upon WP.org when I threw up my hands and proclaimed I hadn't a clue how to create a website!
It's not unlike (I said to myself) saying you're Catholic/Protestant/Muslim/Jew/Agnostic/Hindi/Jain/ or Universalist Unitarian because your parents insisted on it. There's a reason religions run in families.
Seems to me we work backwards in these things. First, we discover we are standing in a particular camp. I'm standing in WP.org (thanks to my web designer girl friend). I'm standing in the Democratic Party (thanks to my mother). I'm standing in New England, USA (thanks to fate). None are perfect, but I'm pretty proud of each of these.
And then I collect the facts to help me explain to others why my blogging platform, my political party, or my region and country are the best.
The toilet paper is easier to grab when it falls from the top of the roll. Besides, it looks nicer.
Motor boats are noisy. PCs get hacked too easily.
For those actually interested in comparing the two Word Press platforms, I recommend Abby Lawson's creative post on just that. Her blog is called Just a girl and her blog.
We gather the facts that will make your conversion to MY WAY as smooth as sliding down a teflon coated playground slide.

Not every blogger needs saving (except maybe those on Blogspot?).
Perhaps they like the path they are on. Perhaps they are perfectly content in their WordPress.com world. Or Blogger, Weebly, or Tumblr, or Squarespace platform. Who am I to tell them otherwise?
Perhaps they have no books to sell, no services to celebrate. Perhaps they have no plans to monetize their blog (blogger jargon for making money from your blog).
Perhaps they don't really need a website, they just need a place to blog from.
Perhaps they are capable of figuring out how to create a blog site on their own. I do give those bloggers a lot of credit.
We're not talking immortal souls here, thank goodness, but it seems to me the thrust is not dissimilar. I get this notion that MY WAY is the RIGHT WAY — my politics, my country, my blogging platform — and look down on the other, the ignorant, the foreigner, the misguided, the heathen, or the innocently misinformed.
It's the belief that it's my duty to either set them straight, make them see the light, or put them in their proper place.
How easy that has been these past two years.
What is it in me that feels so compelled? Why can't we talk dispassionately when we disagree?
I have a theory. Care to hear it?
AND WE'LL DO THAT NEXT WEEK.
In the meantime, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the fun dichotomies you've identified. Or anything else you care to comment on.
NOTE: I'm changing my hosting service this week. Please bear with us if things go a bit wonky. I shall return.
I once heard that "the mark of an educated person is the ability to see both sides of an issue without" bursting a blood vessel or hurting anyone else in the opposing tribe. I made up the ending, but you get the idea.
My blog began as a wordpress.org and then migrated to a .com because I wanted to sell my book on my blog. Also, I didn't want to contend with annoying ads that WordPress may choose to air on my platform.
A good quote for this post, Marian. I'd heard it more as the ability to hold two competing ideas at the same time. But I like your "without popping a blood vessel" ending. Much more visual. Must be the writer in you.
You are now on WP.org. Welcome to the fold. Our web addresses read .com. I think that's just to keep their brand simplified (for them). I was totally lost for the first few years I was blogging here. Now I'm only partially lost.
I really wish they'd change their name for one of them.
Hi Merril. Your dotCOM blog sits on the WordPress server. So they control the content, the speed your site loads with, and a few other things (like maintenance, security). And you don't have to think about it much, if at all.
Mine (still WP, but from their dotORG, even though my URL says dotCOM) does not. I own the content and therefore must find my own server (since I choose to NOT put one in my basement). These hosts (fancy word for the folks who do put servers in their basements) are easy to find and vary in quality and cost. I've had a great one (TechSurgeons), but will now go to a lower cost host (Blue host) for a few years and see what happens.
I needed a website when I first started, so I could talk about my book and a few other things (see the LEARN MORE page). So, I needed the greater flexibility that the .org folks offered.
I'm still confused in a number of ways with the two WPs. But I'm trying to just ignore the confusion and press on. For one thing, those with WP.com sites can just follow me via WP, they don't have to subscribe. So, I can't capture their emails or mail them the extra things I mail to subscribers. Many I don't even know about, as I discovered recently when I clicked on something I hadn't noticed before. One can spend a lot of time wandering in the WP wilderness.
Until now I wasn't aware that I was in a war! I'm a hobby blogger, with no wish to monetise my blog, no books (or anything else) to sell, so a plain vanilla WordPress.com site suits me fine. I wouldn't want to be bothered with plug ins or any other paraphernalia anyway, so I'm happy that I have a fairly presentable site with minimal effort. I think you'd have a hard time converting me to anything else. Horses for courses, I guess.
Hi Clive. You are the perfect example of what I came to understand in the course of this particular post. I'm glad you spoke up. There's always another side to be heard. And of course, as always, the best way to end a war is to stop fighting. My question though, still, is how we get into these tug of wars where we want so badly to be proven right. My husband thinks it's evolutionary. We'll see next week.
Cheers from across the pond.
Tea trolley? Is that like a butler cart? Either one is a very civilized way to gather. I'll have Scottish Breakfast tea, please. Decaf if possible.
Well, I have a Blogger blog – and I couldn't be any happier with it if I tried. It has never gone down, it has never glitched, I can run ads and monetize when and where I like. It has cost me nothing (other than buying my url so I don't have the .blogspot part in it). I have a lovely theme that cost me much less than a WP theme. I don't have to pay someone to run my blog or troubleshoot – because it doesn't have troubles. I don't have to worry about Gutenberg updates either. I also own every single word I write and don't have to pay anyone if I want to move it anywhere down the track.
I'm so glad to have a Blogspot blogger weigh in. Thanks, Leanne. And I'm very glad you're happy with it. Your blog is easy to read and maneuver around in. That's not what I've usually found, but that's more a design issue.
I'm now chuckling because it took me awhile to figure out how to respond to your "chips …. with no tomato sauce." CULTURE ALERT! We call them french fries with (or without) catsup. Which really are weird words, huh?
I chose the WordPress debate mostly because I've been hearing lots of chatter about how one is far better than the other and it seemed folks had gotten a bit of lather up around it. I had myself early on; which piqued my curiosity. My main point in this post has been that lather. There are always opposing points of view and knowing how we get so invested in our position is, I think, an important piece of self-discovery.
The Internet is filled with "my way is better" articles and gurus and links. It's been good to get to hear from those who actually use these competing platforms. I thank you.
What is it about marriage that makes us debate silly things? For us, it is CVS vs. Walgreens. Also whether the top sheet is pulled to the top of the bed or folded over the comforter artfully. Fun post, thank you!
Terri Lyon recently posted…What can white people do to support racial justice?
That's a good one, Terri, the folding of the top sheet. If it'll help, you could blame it on the amygdala. 🙂 I'll say more on Wednesday.
"In the original plans for the Internet, the .net TLD would designate sites dealing with network infrastructure. Through the mid-90s, this restriction was enforced, with .net addresses designated to "hold only the computer of network providers," such as Internet service providers and Web hosts. Today, however, .net addresses have no such restriction, and while some network companies continue to use .net addresses, the TLD is also open to anyone as an alternative to .com.
So, you have good reason to be confused. The extensions simply don't mean what they used to mean. The www had become like our old wild west in many ways. Hang on tight.
This sounds so very technical to me. It's not the language, although English is my 3rd language as I am a native French speaker, just the contents. My daughter helped me create my blog – it was quick. The longest was finding the name of the blog. She placed it on blogspot and even with minimum knowledge about the internet I have been able to blog coming up on 10 years and placing all my photos with no problems. Of course I have the same heading and am afraid to change it without my eldest daughter's help who is now living up north. I do not try to sell anything either, have nothing to sell. Yes I do – thousands of our second-hand books, but that is another story.
Hello Vagabonde, and welcome. It sounds like you've found the right blogging combination for you. I envy anyone who has a family member they can rope in. And, I'm impressed that you are fluent in three languages (for you are definitely fluent in English; congrats. I speak it well ONLY because I grew up with it. I can't imagine how difficult it is to learn. well, yes actually. I can.) The only other language I can speak fluently is piglatin (that's a joke).
This post is more about our compulsion to be right, to be in the "best" group or tribe, to know where we fit in. I'll say more about that tomorrow in the follow up (Part II). I hope you'll come back. Curiously, I used WordPress, because I thought it'd be less contentious than other choices. But we all do love our blogging platforms, it appears.

He commented on here more than a few times. My thoughts go out to his family. It seems this happens more on the blogosphere than other online communities I've taken part in over the years. It's a shame. The wonderful thing about the internet is, you're immortal; it forgets nothing.
In Triticale's case, it's wonderful. For some others, the permanent memory that is the Internet holds their shame forever.
In any event, sad news.


After all those failed Olympic bids, all those years working off the image of dark satanic mills, all that droning on about the fun-loving 'vibrancy' of whacky 'Madchester', it was finally time to deliver.
And, last night, it did.
Before the Queen, 38,000 occupants of Britain's most futuristic stadium, 4,000 international athletes and an estimated television audience of one billion, Manchester kicked off the largest sporting event in our history with a monstrous bang.
Sporting titans from Beckham to Redgrave, lavish pyrotechnics, incessant dance music and a very ill but very brave little girl dragged the emotions of this tough old city in every direction.
The Commonwealth Games may not be the Olympics. The Salford docks may not be Sydney Harbour. But try telling that to Manchester last night.
Host cities traditionally wheel out thousands of dancers dressed as trolls or exotic birds to depict some lofty theme about human existence. Or lay on a pageant of national history and icons. Not Manchester.
There was to be absolutely no reference to Lowry, looms or Coronation Street. They went for a nightclub theme instead.
The gyrations paused briefly for the Head of the Commonwealth as she arrived to rapturous Jubilee applause (mindful of the Black Rod affair, Tony Blair had wisely decided against any 'muscling in' and was already seated).
Then the getting on down resumed as the 400 marshals for the athletes' parade appeared. In the past, they would have marched on in blazers. Last night, they boogied on in tracksuits to the tones of S Club.
This was surely the least formal parade in sporting history. No sooner had the athletes completed their lap of honour to deafening pop music than they moved inside the track for a giant disco.
If ever there was a vivid illustration of the diversity of the Commonwealth, this was it.
From the athletic armies of Canada and Australia to small, skirted battalions from the South Seas, and Gavin Lee, a high jumper who constitutes the entire team from tiny Montserrat, they all had their moment.
Here, among so many Olympic heroes, there were names and places to test the most experienced commentator. How many, I wondered, could pronounce, let alone recognise the flag of, Niue. But what a joy to see them here.
Not only are they the smallest Commonwealth country ( population: 1,500), not only is a member of their rugby sevens team called Lovely Spencer Metric Ikitoelagi, but many people wondered whether they would turn up at all as the phone lines to Niue have been down for three months.
It was an enchanting spectacle, a heaving riot of colour with Bermuda in red shorts, Gambia in green robes, the Cook Islands in garlands and flower shirts and so on.
Finally, the grooving gave way to gravitas. The official baton - the Commonwealth's equivalent-of the Olympic flame - appeared in the hands of an acrobat dangling from a balloon 150ft above. It was handed to a series of sporting gods before reaching the last in the line.
Having defied her terminal heart condition to become a fundraiser and mascot to the England football team, Kirsty Howard was to hand the baton, which had travelled 60,000 miles through 23 Commonwealth nations, to the Queen.
Hand-in-hand with David Beckham and with her oxygen tank trailing behind her, the six-year-old did it beautifully. Tears and cheers all round.
Then the Queen duly declared the ten-day sporting extravaganza open. And there was nothing for it but to let the party go on. A cast of thousands of ordinary Mancunians took to the floor, dancing to weird special effects. Suddenly, all their clothes began spurting jets of water from hidden tubes.
'It's supposed to illustrate what an extraordinary thing it is to be Mancunian,' explained artistic director David Zolkwer.
Only Madchester, I reflected, would bother to bring along its own rain on the off-chance the real thing did not materialise.

Q: Align two charts-areas one on top of the other I have a Windows Form Microsoft Data Visualization application. I have one chart, with two chart areas and two series. I stack one on top of the other.
The series I am loading are time-series. So the x-axis index is DataTime for both. The two series more often than not have different y-value ranges. For example, series-0 might go from 20 to 80, while series-1 might go from 140 to 245. Since the series x-axis are identical because the data start to end are the exact same dates, I would like the two charts to line up visually.
Problem is, the label used on one series only has to fit a number of length two, while the label used to fit the other series has to fit a number of length three. So the chart is offset just a little to the right for the series going from 140 to 245 than the series going from 20 to 80.
I don't know how to tell the chart control to make the label of the y-axis be at least a certain amount, so that a label of two numbers and three numbers will take the same amount of space.

The cadets rush out the door and run toward an NCO, shouting in pain. They work quickly, placing a tourniquet on an arm, checking for heavy bleeding, then carry their comrade uphill. Once behind cover, they continue to move and communicate. Bandages, gauze and muscle memory wrap wounds.
The Civil Affairs Soldiers are hot-desking again. NCOs are getting blood types, officers are scheduling sync meetings and the top-floor shipping container-turned office is what U.S. Army Spc. Andrew Paget calls the New York Stock Exchange.

The Shakespeare Band presents the spine-tingling stuff of the Bubonic plague in the 17th-century. Shakespeare lived during the time of the Black Death and this had a profound effect on his plays and on the music of his time. We use authentic instruments, including the lute, hurdy gurdy, recorder and flute, and Renaissance guitar to play the music of 16th-century composers, including John Dowland, broadside ballads, and other tunes from the Renaissance. By combining our music with soliloquies delivered by our actress, you will be transported into an emotional portrait of Shakespeare's time that is as potent now as it was then. The ballad tunes in Shakespeare's plays were well known to his audience and we are delighted to bring them to life once again. Join The Shakespeare Band as we explore both the lighter and the darker side of Renaissance music.
Greensleeves: The Story of Anne Boleyne-through song and verse
Anne Boleyn was the second wife of Henry VIII and the mother of Elizabeth I. Henry's desire to divorce his first wife and marry Anne helped bring about the English Reformation. She was the first English queen to be publicly executed.
Please Join us in the Chapel to hear intimate music and recitations of song, verse and letters directly related to Anne's life.

Their music and Soliloquy Program combines music that was likely used in Shakespeare's original productions with text from the corresponding scripts. The program is an embodiment of early music research that identifies the songs Shakespeare alludes to in his plays; it is intended to be a small scale recreation of the multi-layered, sensual experience of Shakespeare's original patrons.
When Shakespeare's plays were realized on the Elizabethan stage, they were full of popular music of the day. Shakespeare used music to frame the emotion of a scene, to joke with the audience, and to imply meanings. The original audiences at the Globe had an elevated experience: music, a powerfully evocative art form, was used in conjunction with Shakespeare's sublime poetry. A modern audience misses much in the omission of this musical dimension.
Through lute and soliloquy, the audience is transported into an emotional portrait of Shakespeare's time that is as potent now as it was then. Music, a universal language, opens a doorway to a rediscovery of Shakespeare's poetry.
Specializes is The music of Shakespeare's time and takes the audience on a journey of lutes songs and Lute solos by John Dowland and original tunes referenced in Shakespearean plays as well as music popular during the English Renaissance. The duo features voice and lute, a combo that was commonly employed in 16th and 17th century England. This is an authentic, delightful doorway into the sounds native to Shakespeare as he wrote his famous works. additional Based in Cincinnati, we are happy to travel to your area.

At first I thought it must be a joke. I really did. But, that's not Rob's style. The text read 25 RED-THROATED LOONS at Wickham Lake. Really? You've got to be kidding me. I was pessimistic about them sticking around until I got out of work, but somehow they did. I arrived just after 6 pm and I have to say that they did not disappoint. I enjoyed an amazing evening watching these beautiful birds make their way around the lake. They must have been quite comfortable since, with the high winds, the water was extremely rough. I was really curious to see what they would do as the sun started to set, and at 7:10, all but six of the RTLOs took flight. After several laps around the lake, gradually getting higher and higher, they departed, heading west-northwest. Shortly after, I headed out, leaving the lake to the remaining 6 Red-throated Loons. I wonder if they will spend the night?
So amazing! I love the shots of the Loons in the light of the sunset. It must have been hard to hold stead in that wind to take a photo.
Beautiful photos Matt! I was just there about 20 minutes ago, and there was a group of 6 loons close together. A pair of cormorants (there were quite a few scattered around the lake) flew in and landed right among the loons.
Yes, they were still there. Stopped by after work again at 7 am. I counted 5 and had fun watching a pair of males buffleheads competing for a female.
Also had a river otter swim along the edge keeping an eye on me.

...the stress can have a negative impact on the kidneys.
Women seem to be most vulnerable. Not only does this mean they may need to urinate more frequently, but also, as outside information disrupts the energetic flow of emotions related to fear, fright, and shock, the impact on the female seems to be that their foundation of security begins to crumble.
Don't get me wrong- women aren't weak. In fact, I believe they're stronger than men. This could be due to their sensitivity, their heart connection.
But fear has always been used as a powerful way for the few to control the many. It lowers life force, and therefore our communication with the cosmos.
And I can't help but wonder lately if much of what is being barked out by journalists, educators, politicians is being deliberately aimed at women.
We are EXPLORING, connecting teachings. From this, we may have the opportunity to participate in a reformation. We can begin to have an awareness of different forms of conflict, stress, and then visualize how things will be once these areas are balanced out.
The SRC4YOU can be a guide, a tool to help us channel our own self-healing intentions.

Bad Boys II
144 min. distributer. Director: Michael Bay. Cast: Martin Lawrence, Will Smith, Jordi Molla, Gabrielle Union, Peter Stormare.
In most respects, Bad Boys II improves upon its generic predecessor Bad Boys. But the casual misanthropy and aggressive "humor" cancel out the up-shifted action and newfound confidence, making Bad Boys II the sort of fast-food audiences not-so-secretly crave though they know it's not good for them.
Director Michael Bay and the unexpected screenwriting duo of Ron Shelton (Bull Durham) and Jerry Stahl (Permanent Midnight) chase their own tails with dispriting calculation. Though the film is in every respect more elaborate than the original by its exponentially larger budget, fancier action, and general multiplicity of villains, gross-outs, and climaxes, these elements also make Bad Boys II even more transparently loud, stupid, and overlong (at a whopping two hours and twenty-four minutes).
The plot finds Miami buddy cops Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) narc-raving-mad over the Ecstasy operation of Cuban-born "Johnny" Tapia (Jordi Mollà). Tapia's mortuary front allows him to smuggle drugs and money in coffins and hollowed-out corpses, and allows Bay to pathologically indulge himself with corporeal antics, like rooting around in internal organs, ogling big-breasted cadavers, and running over stiffs in an extended freeway chase. Joe Pantoliano returns as the amusingly exasperated Captain Howard (a cranky captain--where do they come up with them?!). Not content with one heavily accented villain, the filmmakers add a Rastafarian baddie and a Russian mobster played by the ubiquitous Peter Stormare.
I suppose one can't get sidetracked when there is no track, but Bad Boys II does its darndest, with distracting, prominent product placements, long riffs joking about Smith and Lawrence as apparent homosexuals, and a theme of male overprotectiveness of women (in separate plot threads, Marcus frets over his undercover-cop sister and his dating-age daughter). All of the above feels perversely pitched at the so-called "urban" audience and, worse, all shades of under-age. Though the film is rated "R" (and many have suggested it deserves an NC-17 for its glamorized, fast-car, slo-mo shoot-'em-up brutality), the target audience clearly skews below the 17-year-old belt.
Smith and Lawrence have comic charisma, baleful though it may be in its aggression. But Bad Boys II is less a film than a meandering action demo reel--with its flying Klansmen, tumbling cars, and spinning dolly shots--or crypto-right-wing "policemen of the world" Americana (check out the bombastic Cuban finale). For all this, it's difficult to keep a straight face at the token moments of human drama--it's as if Smith and Lawrence have their fingers crossed below the frame. For the sake of truth in advertising, the franchise's blank refrain "It's what we do" should be replaced by Smith's climactic holler "Alright, everybody start shooting at somebody!"

Ambrosia apples are prized for their crunchy texture, juiciness, and flavor. This variety has a low acid content, which is easier for some people to digest. Also, Ambrosia apples do not oxidize as rapidly as other varieties, thus making it a good choice for salads and other fresh dishes.
Ambrosia means "food of the gods" as described in ancient Greek mythology. Apple growers Wilfrid and Sally Mennell discovered the original Ambrosia apple tree as a "chance seedling" in their orchard in the Similkameen Valley of British Columbia in the early 1990's.
A few years later the Ambrosia apple was introduced publicly at the annual Apple Festival in Vancouver, British Columbia, and achieved instant popularity. Farmers in many of the world's prominent apple growing regions, including North America, Europe, Chile, and New Zealand, now produce Ambrosia apples for a worldwide market.


Welcome Scooter. I've been flying since 11/17. A 1.4 foil is a good place to start. I've got a 1.4 Prism Snapshot that is pretty fast and fun.Don't fly it much anymore but it is something I'll keep.Biggest drawback is most smaller foils need 8 to 10 mph to get going. When I first joined the forums I went with the advice get the best you can afford and justify.So I got a Premier Widow ng(full size).Worked my way up to the higher end kites since then. I still have a pretty inexpensive kite called the Nighthawk(3/4 size) made by Premier. It's a blast, fast, needs smaller light inputs and is very tricky. Even though it's not in the same league as some of my other kites I still fly it a lot cause it is so much fun.No longer produced it's evolved into the Wolf ng.Lots of differing opinions here. Think we all agree though that you should get to flying your new dual ASAP. Your missing out on all the fun .
Hi, Scooter, and welcome to the forum.
A small foil, 1.2 or 1.4, can be had complete and ready to fly for well under $100 and is a good place to start. The chances with a framed kite are that you'll break something before having enough control to not be crashing anymore. Google and visit a kite shop near you.
Welcome Scooter. I too am in the sunshine state and recently got back into kiting last November. I chose a different path and jumped to a quad line kite. It does feel good to get out and fly again with a renewed interest. Good luck and have fun.
Thanks. Makatakam this is the way I was leaning. Just didn't know if it was the right progression.
Well it's official I'm a pilot not a string holder..I tracked down my local kite store and purchased a a 1.8 m dual line stunt kite.
Went to fly today thought might be perfect... Alas I have mastered the solitarily launch and the crash. I really think there just wasn't enough wind. But I also know that I have lots to learn. My longest flght was maybe two minutes.this is probably stretching.it a few seconds.
Alas I have mastered the solitarily launch and the crash.
Sorry to burst your bubble but crashing and NOT breaking a framed kite really is a skill. When first starting I'd throw 1 or both lines away moving forward. Now just before crashing I can lessen the impact a lot by turning or flaring a kite.Although at times pretty ego bruising you have to learn to laugh at making the same mistake over and over. All the sudden click there it is. Some things quicker than others and it's different for everyone.There's a trick called the Cascade. Year into it I still struggle and most times don't look to good. Some days are better than others. When first learning at times I would wrap a line from the roll up around the wing. Thinking I had a single tip wrap(Insane) I would yank the kite opposite way of spin to exit. That breaks the lower spreader.Broke 5 or 6 LS on different kites before I could see what I was doing wrong.Even after that I broke another. Got a high end vented kite that doesn't skip a beat till winds start going well over 30 mph.Had some really hard crashes in the upper wind range and never broke it. Couple weeks ago winds were around 20 mph. Feeling the groove I was doing tricks from the edge to center trying to get the moxy to trick at center. Just off center before full power tried the Cascade. CRACK!! Been months but danged if I didn't make that same mistake again.Had a spare spreader so kite wasn't grounded. Pretty ego bruising and I don't think I've laughed about it AT ALL!!!! Doesn't look like you'll have any good winds for your foil until Wednesday. When winds are hitting 12/13 make SURE you have the kite weighted down before you walk back to launch. Kite could self launch and some of the resulting scenarios are not good at all.
Thanks for the encouragement . I am glad I am not the only one that has had learning pains. At least on my first day I did experience. That OMG moment that will keep me hooked for a long time.. One part adrenaline 2 parts fear where else can one fine that on the first day.
It is possible to blow out cells in a foil. I've crashed a lot and haven't done it yet, you'r results may vary. When you crash nose down the air has no place to go and the fabric can RIP and give out.
You could go to a single skin foil kite like a NPW (NASA power wing), dfo or flysurfer peak. No cells to burst.
Love foils and lots of people start there. Find a flyer nearby and you will progress really quickly with a little help. Lots of smiles when I pull a foil out and fly with my grandkids. Nice thing is they crash and go 99% of the time. Breaking kites is a right of passage and held in great esteem by peers, especially if on film!
Thanks Erica I'll keep an eye out for busted cells hope I don't cross that bridge for a long time.
Thanks Mike I'll catch up with some body pretty soon just wanted to get at least one flight in before I get an audience 😀.
Hi yawll. Sorry I haven't been around for a few days but the wind has been better. So I've been taking advantage of it. I have been getting a bout an hour a day of fly time and have progressed so that I can keep the kite up for about 15 minutes till I try something above my skill level. Crash. Today I was able to to recover 3 or 4 times after a crash with out a reset. What a difference a bit of breeze makes. Keep flying . Thanks for the all the advice and guidance.
So my latest inquiry is: Is there a noticeable difference between a brandname dyneema line like the one sold by prism and a dyneema line sold on ebay? (I know dyneema is a brand name. but you get what i mean).

Phylogenetic analysis of the L and HN gene of ophidian paramyxoviruses: Brief report
J. Kindermann*, A. Kübber-Heiss, P. Kerschbaumer, N. Nowotny
Two reptilian paramyxoviruses, isolated from a neotropical rattlesnake (neotropical virus, NTV, ATCC VR-1408) and a bush viper (bush viper virus, BVV, ATCC VR-1409), respectively, were analysed to determine their taxonomic position among other reptilian paramyxoviruses investigated previously by Ahne et al. [7]. A 679 bp long region of the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) gene and a 627 bp long region of the large (L) gene were reverse transcribed, amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequences were compared to mammalian paramyxoviruses belonging to the genera Respirovirus and Rubulavirus. The deduced amino acid sequences revealed 58.9 to 62% homology for the partial L protein and 41% to 47.1% homology for the partial HN protein. For phylogenetic analyses, a 518 bp L gene and a 352 bp HN gene fragment were used, both generating similar trees consisting of two distinct main groups, and some intermediate isolates. BVV clustered within group "b" while NTV clustered together with the intermediate ophidian paramyxovirus isolate Crot2-OH90.

N2 - Two reptilian paramyxoviruses, isolated from a neotropical rattlesnake (neotropical virus, NTV, ATCC VR-1408) and a bush viper (bush viper virus, BVV, ATCC VR-1409), respectively, were analysed to determine their taxonomic position among other reptilian paramyxoviruses investigated previously by Ahne et al. [7]. A 679 bp long region of the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) gene and a 627 bp long region of the large (L) gene were reverse transcribed, amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequences were compared to mammalian paramyxoviruses belonging to the genera Respirovirus and Rubulavirus. The deduced amino acid sequences revealed 58.9 to 62% homology for the partial L protein and 41% to 47.1% homology for the partial HN protein. For phylogenetic analyses, a 518 bp L gene and a 352 bp HN gene fragment were used, both generating similar trees consisting of two distinct main groups, and some intermediate isolates. BVV clustered within group "b" while NTV clustered together with the intermediate ophidian paramyxovirus isolate Crot2-OH90.

Q: NMinimize calling an own defined function I want to call an own defined function through NMinimize. For the sake of simplicity, let us define the problem as follow:
radpatt[x1_] :=
   (Print[x1];
   x1
   )

NMinimize[{radpatt[xx], 0.1 <= xx <= 1.1}, {xx}]

If you run the above-listed instructions, you will notice that x1 is not number as soon as the function radpatt is called by NMinimize, but it is equal to xx. This causes me an issue because in my original problem x1 needs to be a number just at the beginning of my own function. Any ideas?
Many many thanks in advance.

Life is calm and composed when your heating system, air conditioning system and plumbing are functioning correctly. However, when any of these systems break down, our life turns topsy-turvy. The common problems you might come across throughout the year with your HVAC and plumbing systems can be resolved with help of qualified and experienced technicians.
Let's face it!! The most common plumbing issue we all face is noisy toilets. It is unimaginable for a common man to think the toilets would be the source of concern in a home, residential complex or commercial buildings. The abnormal sounds after flushing are due to a damaged valve and are easily fixed by an experienced plumber.
Running toilet is one of the most commonly reported plumbing issues. Running toilet means, water is continuously running even when the toilets are in use. The continuous flow of water id due to defective flapper that leads to water wastage. The plumbing repair service in New Jersey fixes the defective flapper to prevent the continuous flow of water in the toilets.
Awful smells coming from the toilet compel us to call a plumber. The plumber fixes the burst pipe, wax ring and adds more water to the bowl to limit the offensive smell.
The odor coming from the bathtub may be due to its infrequent use or leaking trap. The dry traps also emit odors. When called, the plumber repairs the broken or the leaking trap.
The drains when blocked, pose problems for your bathtub. Call a plumber to get rid of accumulated debris, hair, fat, and soap scum clogged in the drain pipe.
Non-functioning garbage disposals and low water pressure produce the bad odor. The garbage disposal stops functioning due to a faulty motor, clogged blades or a blocked drain. By fixing either of issues, the functioning of the garbage disposals is restored. The plumber inspects sink installation and repairs defective and damaged aerators.
*In winters, the rain on the top of the heat pump unit freezes or a leaky gutter drips on the top of the unit or at times the unit submerges into the ground. Due these reasons, the heat pump does not reach the right temperature. Even though you have set the thermostat of the heat pump at 700F, the temperature never crosses 650F. The plumbing agency replaces the old unproductive compressor and the reverser valves and service the heat pump. The servicing of the heat pump restores normal functioning of the heat pump making your winter morning a pleasant one.
* Heat pumps are noisy especially when installed outside. However, they are louder when the fan blade hits something, motor needs rewinding or the compressor needs repairs. Licensed plumbers from New Jersey, restore the proper functioning of the heat pump and reduces its noise.
* A plumbing company gets the highest number of calls for the non-working of humidifiers during summer. The technicians clean the humidifier to run it properly and efficiently. Regular maintenance and repair of the HVAC systems through certified technicians helps in smooth running of the systems.
We pay least attention to Plumbing and HVAC repair. However, it is so important to understand the plumbing system and hire services of experienced and licensed technicians to take care of and protect the system. The quality fixtures and the services help in smooth running of the systems. Protect your family by hiring a professional plumbing company that understands your needs.

Saving All My Love
Evening Update Wednesday 19 August 2020
The Mayor of Nice, Christian Estrosi, has been holding a press conference this afternoon with Christian Prudhomme, director of the Tour de France. Although mostly concerned with the organization of the Tour, the Mayor also touched upon the mandatory wearing of masks. He said that he had asked the Prefect that the decree concerning the wearing of masks be extended throughout the city and that he "intended to enforce it tonight". As regards the Tour de France, he said that riders would undergo two coronavirus tests before the start of the event. He also described detailed plans for a spectator area for 1,750 people with chairs fixed in place to ensure social distancing.
The French minister for small and medium sized businesses has said that if employees refuse to wear a mask at work, they may be subject to disciplinary action by their employer, including dismissal. Alain Griset said that the usual disciplinary processes must, however, be followed. The minister was speaking on television today after the French government confirmed yesterday that employees must wear masks at work from 1 September, with the exception of individual offices containing one person. Further clarification on the application of the rules in certain work situations is expected in the coming days. According to Sante Publique France, 24% of coronavirus outbreaks are in businesses.
Twenty-two people have gone into 14 day quarantine after a coronavirus outbreak in Isola2000. A tourist who was at a private party last Thursday in the resort tested positive for the virus. According to the local mayor, 22 contacts of the person were all traced, have gone into quarantine and will be tested again tomorrow.
The Mayor of Nice, Christian Estrosi, has asked the Prefect of the Alpes Maritime to order the closure of five bars in Nice old town. The bars have received a final administrative warning from the Prefecture after checks on the enforcement of barrier measures were made last weekend. The Mayor has already written to French Prime Minister Jean Castex asking to be given the power, on an exceptional basis, to close establishments for 48 to 72 hours in which repeated breaches of sanitary rules have been observed.
The wearing of masks will become mandatory throughout the entire city of Toulouse from this Friday, August 21. The rule will apply from 7am to 3am every day, according to the Prefect who made the announcement earlier today. Toulouse will be the first major French city to make the wearing of a mask mandatory all day in all areas of the city.
A truck carrying hazardous materials was involved in a head-on collision with a car this morning in Flayosc in the Var. A chemical risk team attended the scene but no leaks from the vehicle occured. One of the occupants of the car which was involved in the collision on the route de Lorgues was taken to hospital with minor injuries.
Access to the Gorges de Verdon has reopened today. The area had been closed yesterday because of high winds.
Inflation in the UK has risen to its highest level since before lockdown began. The Office for National Statistics said that the Consumer Prices Index rose to 1.0% in July from 0.6% in June. Increases in the price of clothing, footwear, furniture, household goods and transport were the largest drivers of the increase, with the price of food and non-alcoholic beverages falling.
New data from EU statistics agency Eurostat shows that consumer prices in the Eurozone rose 0.4% in July compared to the same period last year. Inflation across the EU for the month stood at 0.9% but varied widely across member states, with Hungary recording 3.9% and Greece recording minus 2.1%.
UK music brand NME is launching a website in Asia. The company says it will initially focus on Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines. Last year it entered the Australian market and also recently restarted physical publishing with a monthly magazine in Australia, which is its only current regular print edition. NME can trace its history back to 1952 when it launched as New Musical Express, becoming the first British publication to publish a regular singles chart.
Cycling...Chris Froome & Geraint Thomas have been left out of the Tour de France squad by Team Ineos. Froome will, however, lead the team at the Vuelta a Espana in October and Thomas will do the same at the Giro d'Italia. Froome has already announced his intention to leave Team Ineos at the end of this season.
Football... Barcelona have named Ronald Koeman as their new head coach. Koeman will leave his position as the Netherlands national team coach. He's signed a two year deal with Barcelona where he was a player for six years.
Motorsports... All ten teams have announced their intention to sign up to the new Formula 1 Concorde Agreement which will govern the commercial terms of the sport from 2021 to 2025. Ferrari, McLaren and Williams had announced their support of the revised terms yesterday and the other seven constructors have now also confirmed their support.
Cricket... Reports say that the ECB is considering changing the start times of the England against Pakistan Third Test. Earlier start times are apparently being considered as a way to make up time lost to bad weather and poor light. England head coach Chris Silverwood has said that he would support earlier starts. The Third test is due to start in Southampton on Friday.

Kenya: Race against time to save the last white rhinos
On World Rhino Day, the only northern white male left in the world is desperately trying to save his subspecies.
by Hannah McNeish

Laikipia, Kenya - As the sun rises over Ol Pejeta wildlife conservancy, spreading the purple bruise of Mount Kenya's pointed shadow across the sky, Sudan the rhinoceros leaves his pen and starts marking the territory he hopes to lure a mate into.
In March, Sudan became the last male northern rhino in the world - and the last hope for saving his subspecies by impregnating his daughter or granddaughter.
On World Rhino Day on Tuesday, Sudan and three females in the 243-hectare natural habitat in Kenya are the only remaining northern whites after they were brought from a Czech zoo, where the cold concrete and diet of bread and apples withered their chances of breeding.
RELATED: White Gold
Although his keepers say Sudan "still admires the ladies" and is willing to mate, his flesh and sperm are too weak to produce offspring.
While the average wild rhino lives up to 35 years, Sudan, 42, is alive but doesn't stand a fighting chance of winning over the females because of his arthritis and blindness in one eye.
"For rhinos to mate, they need to fight. If the male wins, [they'll be] mating. If the female wins, no mating. It's a way of approaching one another - like humans talking in bars," says Zacharia Mutai, one of Sudan's five keepers.

Mutai says he often feels for "the old man" when he emerges from vigorous wooing attempts with a bloody and bloated face, or whose slumped back legs prevent him mounting and lasting the duration of a 45-minute to one-hour-long mating session.
"That's why Chinese people believe that if they have a rhino horn, they will do it like a rhino," says Mutai of a common myth that won't die.
The penchant for rhino horn dates back to 200 BC in traditional Asian medicines. In the 1990s, the demand for daggers made of rhino horn surged in the Middle East, especially Yemen.
But in recent years, criminal syndicates, primarily in Vietnam and China, have reignited and reinvented such a market for rhino horn as a trophy and tonic. It has let powder-pushers into cancer wards to sell $200 "cures", and left rhinos throughout Asia and Africa staring down the barrel of a gun.
"This is the year when poaching deaths and natural mortality overtake births," said Cathy Dean, director of Save the Rhino.

South Africa, home to 80 percent of Africa's rhinos, lost 1,215 rhinos to poachers last year, compared to an average of 13 each year between 1990 and 2007.
Two-thirds were killed in Kruger, a national park "the size of Israel" bordering Mozambique. Poachers taunt rangers from the fences, says rhino expert Julian Rademeyer.
Rademeyer says some South African private reserve owners are selling off rhinos as security costs increase exponentially with skyrocketing horn prices that are currently up to $65,000 for each kilogramme.
East Africa has been less affected by rhino poaching, but Ol Pejeta spends one-quarter of its budget on security, including binocular-toting patrol squads by day and Kenyan police who can fire their weapons by night.

Meanwhile, keepers spend three days tickling Sudan's belly as they file down his horn to make him less attractive to poachers. It's a labour of love for Mutai, who only read about rhinos in books before coming to work here.
"I heard about the prehistoric dinosaurs. When I came to see a rhino, it looked like that."
He wants them to survive "for our children and grandchildren. I want them to see what I've seen", not just in books, he says.
RELATED: The Last Rhino
If the status quo continues, however, all rhinos could disappear by 2026.
"If you have a baby this year, by the time you're choosing secondary schools, rhinos could be extinct," says Dean.
Also contributing to the threat of extinction are ongoing human activities. Last year, the World Wildlife Fund said consumers from developed countries have contributed to the decimation of the wildlife in developing countries over the past 40 years.
"I'm afraid it's just overexploitation of the planet's resources by humans. That's all it is," says Ol Pejeta's CEO Richard Vigne, as Sudan munches the protein-rich alfalfa meant to slow his extinction.

Rhino-saving solutions are everywhere, but conflicting. A biotech startup company, Pembient, is taking rhinos back to the future with a 3-D printed keratin horn that is genetically engineered to be "as pure as that of a rhino of 2,000 years ago".
RELATED: Saving the endangered white rhino
The plan to flood the market with a product that costs $7,000 per kilo, "around an eighth of the price of the original", aims to put poachers out of business.
But experimenting with a market that few understand could actually push the demand for genuine horns and drive the prices higher.
In South Africa, wildlife rangers and veterinarians have taken to sedating rhinos and removing the horn properly to prevent the brutal poaching method of hacking a rhino's face off to get it.

Proposals to farm horn could also boost the little-understood market.
"While it would be possible to preserve rhinos in a kind of farm situation - in crates or in paddocks or like cattle - that would probably be the end of populations of wild rhino," Vigne says. "Right now, we're trying to keep them alive with the price that currently prevails; if it went up, it would be impossible."
According to 2013 consumer research in Vietnam, the main market is being driven by affluent 35 to 50-year-old businessmen living in big cities and seeking "emotional value".
"Having a rhino horn is like having a Ferrari. There's no need for one, but you think it makes you look good," says Vigne. Consuming the horn, he says, "is as useful as chewing your fingernails".
In 1975, three-year-old Sudan was plucked from his namesake, where he was one of about 1,000 northern whites roaming around Central Africa before poachers bartered the rest for weapons during decades of civil war that swept through the region.
In 2005, wrangling local officials scuppered plans to extract five survivors from Garamba in eastern Congo for breeding purposes. A year later, northern whites were declared extinct in the wild.
"The moral of the story is that, unfortunately, politics and misplaced national pride got in the way of saving the northern white rhino," says Dean.
Indonesia's Javan rhinos and the Himalayan rhinos could be saved through secondary populations, but the northern white is "a doomed subspecies", as it has fallen below the critical mass of 20 to be bred back up, she says.
Fatu, 14, is the last born northern white rhino and the greatest repository of eggs for possible IVF breeding [Hannah McNeish/Al Jazeera]
The southern white rhino "went through a sort of genetic bottleneck", going from 20 animals at the turn of the century to about 14,000 now without repercussions, says Dean.
But they weren't as aged, unproductive, and closely related as the remaining northern whites - which include two females beyond reproductive age and 14-year-old Fatu, who has a damaged uterus and would be unlikely to carry a calf to the full 18-month term.
Vigne, however, is not giving up. Ol Pejeta is trying to raise $800,000 to pioneer in vitro fertilisation of a surrogate southern white rhino using frozen sperm and eggs taken from its northern relatives.
So while Sudan can die without the weight of the northern whites on his shoulders, the females, who are "simply repositories of eggs" in Vigne's eyes, have to stay alive long enough for scientists to master how to extract and store delicate rhino eggs.
For one of the world's oldest species, "it's a race against time".

Q: Inner/ Outer join in the Oracle Sql query I am trying to create a select query using joins
select distinct code from view req
inner join assoview assreq ON assreq.id_2 = req.id
where req.type_name = 'REQUEST' order by code

returns only the codes that has association like
ABC003
ABC005

But when I do a left join
select distinct code from view req
left join assoview assreq ON assreq.id_2 = req.id
where req.type_name = 'REQUEST' order by code

I get results as
ABC001
ABC002
ABC003
ABC004
ABC005

But I am looking how I can get the the code that has no association like
ABC001
ABC002
ABC004

A: Use a left join and where . . . is null:
select distinct code
from view req left join
     assoview assreq
     on assreq.id_2 = req.id
where req.type_name = 'REQUEST' and
      assreq.id_2 is null
order by code;

You can also use not in or not exists, but this follows your current logic.

A: One way is to use MINUS operator:
select code from view req
left join assoview assreq ON assreq.id_2 = req.id
where req.type_name = 'REQUEST'
MINUS
select code from view req
inner join assoview assreq ON assreq.id_2 = req.id
where req.type_name = 'REQUEST'
order by code;

A: Just use an "IS NULL" on a column of your LEFT JOIN table
   SELECT DISTINCT code
     FROM view req
LEFT JOIN assoview assreq
       ON assreq.id_2    = req.id
    WHERE req.type_name  = 'REQUEST'
      AND assreq.id_2    IS NULL
 ORDER BY code

A: select distinct code from view req
inner join assoview assreq ON assreq.id_2 <> req.id
where req.type_name = 'REQUEST' order by code

U.S. House To Vote TUESDAY on Bill Banning Abortions After 20 Weeks
Joshua Denton
The U.S. House of Representatives has scheduled an October 3rd vote on a bill that would ban abortions after 20 weeks up until the time of birth. The U.S. House passed a similar bill in 2015. During the debate on the bill, Congressman Sean Duffy (R-WI) gave one of the most impassioned speeches for protecting the lives of innocent pre-born children.
"This is not a debate about abortion or even non-abortion, pro-life or pro-abortion," Duffy said. "Those who are even pro-abortion agree that these tactics are unacceptable. They have no place in our society, and that federal tax dollars should actually go to fund an institution that harvests baby body parts for sale is absolutely asinine."
"What do we stand for in this institution if we do not stand-up for the most defenseless and voiceless among us?" concluded Duffy.
According to Lifenews:
During the hearing on the last bill, former abortion practitioner Anthony Levatino told members of the committee the gruesome details of his former abortion practice and how he became pro-life following the tragic automobile accident of his child.
Another bombshell dropped during the hearing came from Dr. Maureen Condic, who is Associate Professor of Neurobiology and Adjunct Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Utah School of Medicine. She testified that the unborn child is capable of reacting to pain as early as 8-10 weeks. This is when most abortions in America take place.
Sadly, when it was brought to a vote in the Senate (where the Democrats then held a majority) it was defeated via filibuster.
U.S. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy hosted a press conference yesterday providing details of when the House will vote on the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (H.R. 36). McCarthy was joined by pro life U.S. Representatives Diane Black (TN-06), Trent Franks (AZ-08), Vicky Hartzler (MO-04), and and other pro-life leaders such as Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser.
The family of Micah Pickering was also present at the press conference, according to Lifenews. Micah Pickering is a miracle baby who survived after being born prematurely at 20 weeks. Today, Micah is a happy, healthy five year old.
SBA List Marjorie Dannenfelser stated the faces like Micah help bring this issue to life in many people's minds.
"Micah really is the real face of this issue," she urged. "Because it's really easy to talk about it, the abortion issue, in abstract theoretical terms. But when you really have come across … and see a young man running around full of energy and love, you realize this is not any other political issue."
U.S. Representative Trent Franks made similar references to Micah, according to Lifenews. "When Micah stands there," he said, "you can't ignore him. He's as real as it gets."
In a post press conference interview with MRC Culture Associate Culture Editor, Katie Yoder, Representative Franks also stated:
"I understand that mothers are in a great challenge in these circumstances and my heart is so deeply with them, but there's nothing liberating about taking the life of a child. It doesn't liberate the mother. It only puts her in a deeper heartache in the long run.
I'm convinced that if America will look at this as it is, and say 'Okay, what's the real question here? Does this thing kill a baby or not?' If it doesn't, then okay, it's no big deal," he concluded. "But if it really does kill a little helpless human baby, and it's done that 60 million times now, isn't it about time we changed direction?"
Representative Franks introduced the legislation back in January, and also proposed legislation in July in an effort to try to save the now deceased Charlie Gard.
Take ACTION See the list below: Call your U.S. Representatives to ask him/her to support the 20-week abortion ban. The U.S. House is scheduled to vote on the bill on Tuesday, October 3rd.
It's just that simple. Below is a list of your Congressperson's from NJ. Don't forget to make your tax deductible donation to help end abortion in our lifetime. We have not had an opportunity like this in 44 years! Give NOW!

Club saddened by death of Lady Barbara Millichip
Chairman leads tributes to Sir Bert's widow
WEST Bromwich Albion is deeply saddened to learn of the death last night of Lady Barbara Millichip, widow of former Club chairman Sir Bert.
Lady Barbara, who was 88 and passed away on what would have been her late husband's 101st birthday, died peacefully after a short illness.
Lady Barbara was a Life Member at The Hawthorns and a remained a staunch supporter of her beloved Baggies throughout her life.
News of her death brought tributes from throughout the Club today, led by Chairman Jeremy Peace who said: "We are all deeply saddened by Lady Barbara's passing.
"She was a wonderful lady and always welcome at The Hawthorns – she was Albion through and through and she will be greatly missed.
"Our deepest condolences go to her family."
Lady Barbara provided a link to one of the Club's most famous families, Sir Bert having chaired the club from 1974 to lead an Albion revival before standing down in 1983. Sir Bert was also President of the Club and Chairman of the FA between 1981-96 during one of English football's most troubled periods.
Record-holder Tony Brown, who was a key figure on the pitch during Sir Bert's chairmanship, was deeply saddened to hear of Lady Barbara's passing.
He said: "It's very, very sad news because I've known Lady Barbara for many years, going back to when I was a player here.
"Back then, we tended to meet at various Club functions and dinners and she was a delightful lady. She was a lovely person to talk to and she had that knack where, whoever she was with, she put them at their ease. She made a point of speaking to everyone and we were all charmed by her.
"With Sir Bert, they made a wonderful couple and both of them were Albion through and through. I think you could see that in the fact that even up to last season, she would still be coming to games.
"It was always lovely to meet up and chat about old times and we shall all miss her greatly."
Lady Barbara leaves a son Peter and daughter Sally and grandchildren Charlie and Jenny. Funeral arrangements will be announced later.

Q: In linux is there a way to make a file read only whilst it is opened by someone else so only they can access it at the time I'm quite new to bash scripting and i was having a look at permissions and i was wondering if there was a way to use a while loop to make it so that whilst the user is opening say
"file.txt" it becomes read only to everyone else until that file has been closed by the user again.
Is this possible in linux?

A: You might want file locking. See this page, the lockfile(1) man page, this question (which is very similar).
But I am not sure that you are right to reason at the shell script level. I'll do it inside the application, probably with lockf(3) or flock(2). You should avoid mandatory locking.
Be aware that editors might do their own file locking, or do other things than just writing files.
Some editors or programs might write a temporary file, then rename(2) it
