How new tech will slow down spoofed calls in Canada
The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission says it now has tools to help Canadians determine which phone calls are legitimate and which are fraudulent.
Jeremy Hainsworth
A new tool called Stir/Shaken will allow Canadians to determine which calls can be trusted.boonchai wedmakawand / Contributed
You've likely been on the receiving end of a spoofed call.
It appears to be a local number calling, with varying messages: you've won a trip, a warrant has been issued for your arrest, your computer isn't working.
And they're irritating, part of an array of scam calls that have been targeting Canadians for years now.
Now, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) says it has tools for Canadians to determine what calls can be trusted and which from spoofed numbers can be ignored.
"Caller ID spoofing is frequently used in nuisance and fraudulent calls to mask the identity of the caller," the CRTC said.
The CRTC has introduced new technology aimed at combating those calls.
It's called Stir/Shaken and will allow telecommunications service providers to certify whether a caller's identity can be trusted by verifying the caller ID information for Internet Protocol (IP)-based voice calls.
"This new caller ID technology will empower Canadians to determine which calls are legitimate and worth answering, and which need to be treated with caution," CRTC chair Ian Scott said. "As more providers upgrade their networks, Stir/Shaken will undoubtedly reduce spoofing and help Canadians regain peace of mind when answering phone calls."
The CRTC said as service providers continue to upgrade IP networks and offer compatible phones to their customers, more and more Canadians will be able to see the effects of Stir/Shaken.
The CRTC said it's also working with the industry to develop a process to trace nuisance calls back to their points of origin.
The CRTC stressed not all calls will be verifiable due to device and network compatibility requirements, including calls that are not entirely performed over an IP-voice network.
The commission is reminding Canadians to never provide personal information such as banking information or social insurance numbers over the phone without first verifying whether the request is legitimate.

Tottenham transfer news and rumors
Willing to splurge for a star? Why not Mattia Destro?
Roma seem willing to listen to a big offer for Mattia Destro. He can play up top or on the left, and seems to fit what Poche wants. Is it that crazy?
By Kim McCauley@lgbtqfc Sep 1, 2014, 9:30am BST
Share All sharing options for: Willing to splurge for a star? Why not Mattia Destro?
John Geliebter-USA TODAY Sports
This post is part of a deadline morning series on potential Tottenham transfers.You can find all of the posts in the series right here, as well as the initial post explaining this series right here.
Once again, it's time to dive into the pipe dream realm of this series. And as far as pipe dream acquisitions go, Mattia Destro isn't a ridiculously unrealistic one. He's been linked to a move away from Roma for roughly £18m, which isn't ridiculous. His wages would be on the higher end of our wage scale, but much lower than Roberto Soldado and Emmanuel Adebayor's.
But no one knows if Roma are actually willing to sell Destro for any kind of reasonable price (they say he's not for sale), or if he wants to go to a team like Tottenham Hotspur, in a foreign country and not in the Champions League. It's possible that he could just turn us down point blank even if we did have a bid accepted.
That shouldn't stop you from dreaming a somewhat realistic dream, though.
Quick bio: Destro couldn't quite hack it as a youngster at Genoa, so they sent him to a smaller club, Siena. There, he starred, so they sold half his rights to Roma with an option to buy the rest for a good chunk of change. Destro's been impressive when healthy recently -- he was one of the most efficient scorers in Europe last season -- but he has pretty constant injury problems. He's probably best as a striker, but also very good wide left.
Likelihood he's transfered today: Small. Roma have changed their tune and started saying that he is absolutely not for sale.
Potential suitors: Previously, Chelsea were in for him, but they just signed Loic Remy. It seems extremely unlikely that they'd buy Destro too. If Juventus actually do sell Arturo Vidal, they'll have some money to burn, and could burn quite a bit of it on Destro. Other than that, his possible destinations aren't obvious.
Price if he's sold: Somewhere from £17-22m
Are Spurs the front-runners?: If he's actually available? Maybe. Though, in that Candyland Vidal scenario, Juventus would be.
The verdict - Could he be a Spurs player on September 2?: No. Roma don't need the money after selling Mehdi Benatia and replacing him with Kostas Manolas at a much cheaper price. When they say he's not for sale, they're probably not bluffing.

The last two weeks have been a little jumbled with more snow/freezing cold temperatures making things interesting. Some daycares were receiving indoor visits with the blue tub (mentioned in my previous blog post!) and indoor games while others were heading outdoors to build animal homes and go for nature walks. Regardless of what we were doing: fun, learning, and connection to nature were of the utmost priority!
The animal homes were a super cool activity to build with the children. Some of the homes that were built included: birds nest, squirrel hotels, bear dens, bunny holes, fox dens, mouse holes. In this activity the children form animal homes out of the snow for the animal of their choice. Sometime it is effective to let the children go on their own, other times it is a good group activity involving the whole group in one home or splitting the group into pairs. It really depends on the number of children you have and the various dynamics that exist in each group. Play it by ear and see what works best for you. This was a fun activity to do with the copious amount of snow that we had fall over the last 2 months, but it would also be super interesting in other seasons when there are different items to pull together. As you can imagine, it is important to remind children to not source materials from living branches and trees and to not be destructive when we borrow materials from nature. That is why the snow was pretty great... you can move that stuff around pretty harmlessly!
where would the animal (s) eat?
where would the animal (s) store it's food?
where would the animal (s) sleep?
where would the animal (s) play?
where would the animal (s) get their food?
Although it is mostly just a fun, imaginative, creative game... This activity really encourages the children to consider the life of animals in the wild. Naturally, the children start to ask questions about the animal (s) whose homes they are building while they are simultaneously connecting to and building a relationship with nature. I recommend this activity to anyone interested in engaging children in a fun and creative game that encourages the natural inquisition of children. In this activity, the children are learning about what they are engaged in and engaging in what they are learning in. It is quite neat!
The indoor visits are surprisingly engaging as well. Though they do not have the same intensity as the outdoor ones do, it can be super interesting to get the children to think about the nature that is inside and to be aware of how we use nature to create things that are inside.
Another fun indoor activity is animal sounds. Being indoors is a good opportunity to get children to listen to and make various animal sounds so that when they do go outside, they are thinking about and listening for those sounds. You can also get them to think about the sound leaves make when they rustle and waves make when they crash on the sand and the wind makes when it howls through the buildings. It is also super cute to get them to make the animal sounds after they listen to them. Most of the children really enjoy this opportunity to be vocal and expressive and make noises that they would not normally make! It's a really fun and engaging way to learn and be aware of nature!
We had some really great support from the community and, as you can imagine, got to see lots of the "Wild Children" in PEI. . The face painting was a major hit... there were butterflies and tigers and spidermen like you wouldn't believe! The hoola hoops were a genius addition to the evening and should probably be at any event that ever happens. The bands and musicians that came out were all so awesome and really made the event come alive with their entertainment. The dance was another aspect of the evening that really gave the event its heartbeat and featured some of the wildest little ones you've ever seen! Thank you also to Tony and Marion for organizing some very fun country style dance! The food (despite the hiccup in getting started- sorry about that!) was super yummy and a great treat! The wildlife display, aside from being a very logical thing to have at a fundraiser for children to get into nature, was almost always being touched and oohed and awed at and was most definitely a favourite among the little ones! And the silent auction was a great success that featured so many amazing items from the island community. The volunteers were so wonderful and made the event run so smoothly! We really appreciate all of the help and support from the community and hope that everyone had a Wild Time!

This one will be short and sweet. Here is my version of the floral camisole top inspired by my Spring/Summer wardrobe.
I made version 'D'. I used a beautiful floral georgette from Gorgeous Fabrics that has lots of bright colors. I spent $22.50 on the fabric. This went together quickly and easily. The georgette is sheer but the bodice is lined and the bottom has an overlay over it. My only gripe is that it is a little low cut and I hate wearing strapless bras! I ended up wearing this with a cotton camisole underneath.
This is how I wore it out for the first time. I paired it with my Burda Safari Jacket.
My husband and I were able to get away for a little while for a date. We went to a public auction and then to a wine bar afterward.
This is one of the last items I am making for the warmer weather. I still have the jackets and pants from my Spring/Summer wardrobe project that will transition nicely into Fall so I am working on those next. I don't know about where you are, but Fall is in the air over here!
I really like your top! I'm a sucker for happy colors.
Totally love this. Awesome fabric choice. You always look so cute in everything you wear. You have such great style.
Wow this is so pretty I love the fabric. Both outfits look amazing. I love the safari jacket I bought this one too I will have to check out your version!!


Veronica Velarde Tiller, shown in a scene from "A Thousand Voices," a PBS documentary about Native American women, created a guide to contemporary Indian tribes.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Historian and researcher Veronica E. Velarde Tiller, a Jicarilla Apache, has taken a long time to tell her story.
She's told and published the stories of her tribe and the 567 federally recognized tribes across the country, in her encyclopedic "Tiller's Guide to Indian Country," a third edition just released this month.
The book, first published in 1996 and updated about every 10 years, provides a profile of each tribe, so that agencies and corporations, including the federal government, will know a little before they negotiate. It has been used by many, including the U.S. Supreme Court and cited in the court's findings.
National expert LaDonna Harris, a Comanche and president emeritus of Americans for Indian Opportunity, says in the book's introduction that Tiller has helped the entire country become aware of contemporary Indian tribes.
Harris praises Tiller's wide-ranging research and writing, saying she has captured the transition of many tribes from relocation and termination to economic success: "Veronica Tiller has virtually singlehandedly stepped forth to provide material to fill that gap in curriculum materials for virtually every corner of America," she says, adding the guide should be available to governments, schools and libraries.
Veronica Velarde Tiller, right, attends the American Indian Film Festival in San Francisco earlier this month with her husband, David Harrison, left, and actress Irene Bedard, center. Tiller accepted the Best Documentary Film award for Silver Bullet Productions of Santa Fe for "A Thousand Voices." Bedard narrated the film.
Now that Tiller has shepherded a third edition through to publishing, she plans to write her memoir.
She started telling parts of her story in "A Thousand Voices," an award-winning PBS documentary about Native American women in New Mexico.
Tiller, who went to boarding school in Dulce, N.M., shared some of those memories in the film.
"Today I couldn't think of the idea of my kids being separated from me when they were only 6 or 7 years old and putting them into an institution known as a boarding school. You might as well put them in prison," she says.
Tiller, who has two grown daughters, one in California and one in Colorado, survived boarding school and then took a job cleaning and helping an Albuquerque family so she could attend Valley High School. She went straight to the University of New Mexico, with the help of a tribal scholarship, after graduating from Valley in 1966.
Veronica Velarde Tiller, about 14, wears her ceremonial Jicarilla Apache dress in this 1964 photo.
She remedied some of that ignorance, when her graduate school dissertation was published as a book about the Jicarilla Apache.
She says after New Mexico became a U.S. territory, the Jicarilla were moved around New Mexico, before being resettled in northern New Mexico, near their original lands.
She says her great-grandfather, Huerito Mundo, was one of the leaders who brokered a deal that allowed the Jicarilla to return to the north central part of the state.
She also plans to write a biography of Velarde.
She grew up on the reservation and when she was 5 her father died. With eight children, Tiller says her mother had a hard time even though they lived on a ranch. Part of their difficulties stemmed from tribal customs.
She met her husband of 30 years, David Harrison, on a research trip to Washington, D.C., and discovered she was much more suited for research and writing than teaching in Utah.


Last week Dr. Roy Spencer treated us to the latest UAH Global Temperature Update. Overall, the "global average lower tropospheric temperature (LT) anomaly for October, 2018 was +0.22 deg. C, up a little from +0.14 deg. C in September".
Dr. Spencer was kind enough to include in his post, as he usually does, a chart with the actual figures from his ongoing research. The entire post was mirrored here at WUWT.
I now believe that if I had asked an even simpler question – such as, What do you mean by mass, or acceleration, which is the scientific equivalent of saying, Can you read? – not more than one in ten of the highly educated would have felt that I was speaking the same language. So the great edifice of modern physics goes up, and the majority of the cleverest people in the western world have about as much insight into it as their Neolithic ancestors would have had.
Infinite Rise? For the past several weeks TWTW has discussed recent studies and reports claiming accelerating sea level rise. A questionable example included a report from NOAA and was cited by the state of Rhode Island in its litigation against oil companies – "The State of Narraganset Bay and Its Watershed 2017." In the Technical Summary, Figures 1 & 2 (pp. 76 & 77) show the decades-long sea level trends in Newport and Providence, RI, of 2.78 +/- 0.16 mm per year (1.1 inches per decade) and 2.25 +/- 0.25 mm per year (0.9 inches per decade), respectively. These come from the established NOAA publication "Tides and Currents." (Newport is at the mouth and Providence at the top of Narraganset Bay) Then, Figure 3 (p. 78) shows NOAA projections of a rise of up to 11 feet in Newport by the end of the century (extreme case)! How did a rise of 10 inches per century, with an error of about 10%, turn in to rise of 11 feet by the end of the century (280 mm per century to 3352 mm per century)? This increase in rate of rise is more than 10 times that being measured.
As a car buyer, would you be willing to pay anything significant to get a vehicle with 0.011% better gas mileage? As a businessman, does a 0.011% change make a difference to your plans? Would you change your neighborhood of 20+ years for a 0.011% decrease in security risk, particularly if you knew it could reverse itself shortly thereafter?
Just to be sure we're thinking realistically about the magnitude of 0.011%, we can also express it as only 110 in a million.

Philip Greenfield in the American Record Guide (March/April, 2002), "The Zamir Chorale of Boston has become America's foremost Jewish choral ensemble." Kevin Gabriel in The Worcester Telegram and Gazette (March 25, 1996), "Jacobson led polished performances that emphasized clarity and balance. And the chorale's professionalism was everywhere evident, particlularly in its unflagging attention to detail."

Is the stock market holding Janet Yellen hostage?
Normally the financial markets dance to the tune of the all-powerful Federal Reserve.
But now the tables have turned. The Fed's decision last week to delay raising rates was caused at least in part by turmoil in the financial markets.
It looks like now the Fed is being held captive by the market -- and its temper tantrums.
"It's not just that they're being held hostage. They've actually volunteered to be hostage to the markets," said David Kelly, chief global strategist at JPMorgan Funds.
All of this is fanning fear that Fed chief Janet Yellen and her colleagues may be trapped at near-zero rates -- the level at which they've been since the height of the financial crisis in 2008.
Even though we have not been in a crisis scenario for some time, the Fed has hesitated to lift rates. There's always been some reason.
In the last couple of years, the hesitation was fueled by fears that it might kill a fragile economic recovery.
Today, the stock market is scaring the Fed. That's a dangerous thought, given how volatile and unpredictable it can be.
Related: The Fed did nothing. What now?
Market forces not economic fundamentals driving policy?
U.S. and global markets plunged in late August over signs that China's economic slowdown was deepening. The fear was that China, long the world's engine of growth, could derail the global economy. At one point the S&P 500 was down nearly 13% from its July peak.
So, though Yellen sounded mostly upbeat about the U.S. economy, she explained the move by specifically pointing to "volatility in financial markets" caused by global growth worries.
Some investors and Fed watchers were startled by the Fed's rationale. They believe it shows outside forces, not economic fundamentals, are now driving policy.
"In nearly 50 years of analyzing the Fed, I've never seen anything like this," said David Jones, a former Fed economist who is now president of DMJ Advisors.
People forget that the Fed itself helped fuel this summer's market volatility. Deep uncertainty over when the rate liftoff would occur regularly spooked investors.
Frustration over the Fed's vague rate hike plans helped cause the Dow to drop almost 300 points on Friday.
The irony is that the Fed seems to be helping cause some of the market turbulence that is keeping it from raising rates.
"We are concerned about this vicious cycle in which more market volatility leads the Fed to delay, which in turn causes more volatility," said Roger Aliaga-Diaz, senior economist at Vanguard.
Michael Block, chief market strategist at Rhino Trading, puts it more bluntly: "The FOMC...and the rest of us are trapped."
Incredibly, even Yellen doesn't rule out this idea of the Fed being stuck in a vicious cycle.
The Fed chief was asked by a reporter last week if she's concerned the central bank "may never escape" from extremely low rates.
While Yellen called this an "extremely downside risk" that she doesn't anticipate will happen, she also admitted she "can't completely rule it out" either. It was not a comforting answer from the world's most powerful woman.
Related: Negative interest rates...in the U.S.?!
Yellen stressed that "the Fed should not be responding to the ups and downs of the markets and it is certainly not our policy to do so."
The problem is the Fed is increasingly being perceived as doing just that -- instead of relying on economic fundamentals to make decisions.
All of this speaks to a credibility problem as investors weigh whether a rate hike will come next month, in December or not until next year.
"Perception is everything. She said October is in play, but can you believe her?" asked Jones.
So how does the Fed get back in control of the situation? One option is to suggest an October rate hike is coming and then follow through and actually do it, even if the market doesn't like it.
That would certainly show that the Fed isn't scared of the market and is confident in the American economy's ability to overcome global headwinds.
An October rate hike would "reduce uncertainty, help the equity market and the economy," said JPMorgan's Kelly.

Q: Having trouble passing variables from my database to my website using Django 3 I am still a newbie to django and have recently begun on a project with numerous models. the problem is whenever i want to pass a variable from my database to my website templates when i run the site i do not see my variables, they just appear empty. for example if i have 10 object variables under a certain model, when i use a for loop to iterate through the objects within an ordered list(html) all i see on the rendered page are empty bullet points. am lost need help!!!
Example Notice model
    from django.db import models
    from django.utils import timezone
    import datetime

    class Notice(models.Model):
        headline=models.CharField(max_length=150)
        notice_text=models.TextField()
        publication_date=models.DateTimeField('date published')

        def __str__(self):
            return self.headline

The view
    class Home_pageView(generic.ListView):
        template_name = 'Notices/home_page.html'
        context_object_name = 'notice_objects'

        def get_queryset(self):
            return Notice.objects.all()

The template
    {% if notice_objects %}

    {% for item in notice_objects %}

{{ notice.notice_text }}

    {% endfor %}

    {% else %}

No notices are available.

    {% endif %}

As I have already mentioned, when I run the above code all i get are empty bullet points corresponding to  the number of notice objects I have in my database.
I also have another model called question in my project and with that one if I use the same code the variables render properly but I don't seem to notice any difference between the two models but maybe you guys can spot any irregular differences. Otherwise all my other models besides the question model render empty bullet points on my site. I even thought my database was the issue so I changed from postgresql to mariadb and to sqlite but nothing changed.
Question model
    from django.db import models
    from django.utils import timezone
    import datetime

    class Question(models.Model):
        headline=models.CharField(max_length=150,default=None,null=True)
        question_text=models.CharField(max_length=200)
        publication_date=models.DateTimeField('date published')
        def __str__(self):
            return self.question_text
        def was_published_recently(self):
            now = timezone.now()
            return now-datetime.timedelta(days=1) <= self.publication_date <= now

The view
    class Home_pageView(generic.ListView):
        template_name = 'Polls/home_page.html'
        context_object_name = 'latest_question_list'

        def get_queryset(self):
            return Question.objects.all()

The template
    {% if latest_question_list %}

    {% for question in latest_question_list %}

{{ question.question_text }}

    {% endfor %}

    {% else %}

No polls are available.

    {% endif %}

Thanks for your help in advance guys.

A: In your views,write a very thin line structure like.
 class Home_pageView(generic.ListView):
    template_name = 'Notices/home_page.html'
    model=Notice

similar case for question list view,
In your HTML template,
 {% for something in object_list %}
 {{something.notice_text}}

A: You loop using the reference for item in ...  then instead of item you refer to notice - this explains your empty bullet points.
Rewrite your template as:

{% for notice in notice_objects %}

{{ notice.notice_text }}

{% empty %}

No notices are available.

{% endfor %}

And note you don't need the if if you use the empty tag ...

Arthur Reginald French,  baron de Freyne, né le  et mort le , est un aristocrate et soldat britannique, tué durant la Première Guerre mondiale.

Biographie
Il est l'aîné des deux enfants de sa mère, morte deux ans après sa naissance. Son père se re-marie, et aura onze enfants de sa seconde épouse. C'est l'arrière-grand-père d'Arthur Reginald French, nommé lui aussi Arthur French, un grand propriétaire terrien anglo-irlandais dans le comté de Roscommon en Irlande, qui avait été anobli et fait baron en 1851.

En 1902, Arthur Reginald épouse Annabel Angus, la fille d'un tavernier, et se brouille ainsi avec sa famille. Il la quitte peu de temps après, mais sans se réconcilier avec les siens, et part à New York en janvier 1905, affirmant qu'il compte travailler sur le ranch de son oncle dans le Nouveau-Mexique. À la place, il disparaît volontairement, laissant derrière lui ses biens personnels dans un hôtel de New York, et s'engage comme simple soldat dans l'Armée de terre des États-Unis. Il est déployé un temps aux Philippines, sur lesquelles les États-Unis ont imposé un protectorat à l'issue de la Guerre américano-philippine. En septembre 1913, à la mort de son père, Arthur Reginald French devient le  baron de Freyne et revient au Royaume-Uni pour prendre possession de son héritage, dont un siège à la Chambre des lords.

Il intègre l'Armée britannique à l'entame de la Première Guerre mondiale. Fait capitaine dans le  bataillon des South Wales Borderers, il meurt de blessures reçues à la bataille de la crête d'Aubers, dans l'Artois, le . Inhumé au cimetière militaire britannique à Souchez, il est l'un des quarante-trois parlementaires britanniques morts durant la Guerre et commémorés par un mémorial à Westminster Hall, dans l'enceinte du palais de Westminster où siège le Parlement du Royaume-Uni. Ses demi-frères Edward, Ernest et George sont également morts à la Grande Guerre. Arthur étant mort sans descendance, c'est l'aîné de ses demi-frères, Francis Charles French, qui lui succède au titre de  baron de Freyne.

means staying within your family or household bubble -
and avoiding gatherings outside of your household.
View Mayor Techel's message here.
The City of Napa wishes you a
safe and healthy 4th of July!
** Please remember:
Fireworks are ILLEGAL in Napa County. **
For the Health & Safety of Our Community: Wash Your Hands, Cover Your Face, Avoid Gatherings
With the 4th of July holiday weekend coming up, it is important that you continue to protect yourself, your family and our community from COVID-19. Normally we get together to celebrate with family and friends. However, this year is different.
COVID-19 is still present in the community and the risk of contracting and spreading COVID-19 still exists. It is important to take the proper precautions to ensure that we can keep our businesses open and avoid another economic shut down, the loss of jobs and additional family hardships.
Important steps you can take to prevent the spread of COVID-19:
Wash or sanitize your hands regularly and avoid touching your face
Wear a face covering. Face coverings are now required when inside any public place or business, and outside when 6 feet of distance between households cannot be maintained.
Avoid gatherings and parties with people from outside your household. This is critically important, as many recent positive COVID cases in Napa County are a result of families and friends gathering amongst households.
Thank you for your continued compliance with shelter at home orders and for keeping our community safe.

To report compliance issues, please email [email protected]
Napa County Jurisdictions Establish COVID-19 Compliance Task Force Coalition
Due to an increase in COVID-19 cases, the Cities, Town and County of Napa are establishing a COVID-19 Compliance Task Force Coalition to ensure the public health and safety of our residents, employees, and visitors. This is necessary to keep Napa County in good standing with the State of California and prevent the potential closure of our critical businesses, restaurants, tasting rooms and hospitality industries.
The increase of COVID-19 cases statewide, and more importantly locally, require Napa County jurisdictions to undertake more aggressive actions to minimize the spread of COVID-19 via the Napa County COVID-19 Compliance Task Force Coalition.
The Napa County COVID-19 Compliance Task Force Coalition's first mission is to achieve compliance through education, however, steps will be taken to ensure the public health and economic vitality of our respective communities.
Each Napa County jurisdiction has assigned staff to work with the County and monitor COVID-19 complaints as they are received. Complaints will be reviewed and addressed based on risk including but not limited to:
Failure to maintain physical separation
Failure to wear face coverings
Failure to comply with Jurisdictional Compliance Orders https://www.countyofnapa.org/2813/Shelter-at-Home-Order
If a business fails to comply with a County or local jurisdiction directive, they are subject to civil and administrative penalties, up to and including fines, temporary restraining orders and revocation of use permits.

Reminder: Fireworks are illegal in Napa County.
Fire Marshal Reminds Residents That Fireworks Prohibited in Napa
The City of Napa reminds residents that the sale, discharge or possession of fireworks, even the so-called "safe and sane" variety, is illegal in the cities of Napa, American Canyon and Calistoga, the Town of Yountville, and all unincorporated areas of Napa County.
Firecrackers, bottle rockets, Roman candles and other devices that explode, move along the ground, or travel through the air are classified as dangerous fireworks and are banned throughout the State of California. Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code section 12721 and Napa Municipal Code Chapter 8.04, Fireworks found in the city will be confiscated and persons found using or possessing fireworks may be issued a citation. This warning also applies to fireworks purchased elsewhere and brought into Napa.
In 2011, an estimated 17,800 reported fires were started by fireworks across the nation. These fires resulted in an estimated 40 civilian injuries and $32 million in direct property damage. In the same year, 9,600 fireworks-related injuries were treated in U.S. hospital emergency rooms. One-quarter (26%) of the victims of fireworks injuries in 2011 were under age 15. Sparklers, which can reach temperatures of more than 1,000 degrees, are responsible for most injuries involving children under the age of 5. Further statistical information can be found at the California State Fire Marshal website.
For your enjoyment, the Club of Napa Sunrise Rotary will be celebrating 4th of July virtually by traveling the City and doing live interviews (social distancing, of course) and showcasing businesses, families and neighborhoods. For more information, please visit https://www.napa4thofjulyparade.com/

The draft report represents LAFCO's independent evaluation of the availability and adequacy of municipal services provided by the 14 local government agencies that provide potable water, recycled water, and/or wastewater services in Napa County. This includes making determinations on a series of factors as required under State law that include infrastructure capacities, financial ability to provide services, and alternative service delivery options. LAFCO will use the MSR to inform its decision-making as it relates to fulfilling its planning and regulatory responsibilities in facilitating orderly growth and efficiency of service provision.
The draft report is available to the general public for review on LAFCO's website here. LAFCO invites any interested member of the public to submit written comments on the draft report through July 20, 2020 at 1:00 PM. Written comments on the draft report will be incorporated into a final report that will be adopted as part of a future public meeting. Written comments should be submitted by email to Jennifer Stephenson at [email protected].
The draft report will be presented at a virtual workshop on July 13, 2020 at 2:00 PM. All interested parties are encouraged to attend the workshop and provide verbal testimony.

almost didn't make an entry for this months challenge at Scrapbook Boutique, although the photograph was very sophisticated and leant itself to a wide range of interpretations...think anniversary, birthday, wedding etc. I just was lacking inspiration. Last evening however, the lads decided that they wanted to move all my crafting supplies into the bright, sunny computer room and all their computer gear into the dark, dingy windowless garage I had been using for the past couple of years! Well, was I likely to say no? I think I had done quite a bit of whinging about the terrible lighting conditions that I was trying to make videos in...they started to cost lighting etc and suddenly the move was under-way! YAY!
I was rudely awoken this morning by Pig just before four am as he thought he might want to go outside for a walk, I had been asleep since 1230 am after all...since then it has been all systems go getting it organised. I let the lads sleep until about seven o'clock, wasn't that generous of me?... made them tea and got them moving. It is now late afternoon and all is done.
Tim is happy...he now has his own desk, his (my) laptop all set up with two screens and I no longer have the frustration of having him set up all over the living room every evening - a definite win/win!
Chris will have his space to himself (when Tim isn't sharing it) and will be able to speak freely once more when engaging with his mates online...I am sure I cramped his style no end when I was sharing with him.
But, best of all...I have a space all of my own...I can craft, video, (in the daylight), work at my uni assignments etc without interruption or interference!
So, anyway, Chris did something magical to our internet connection when he was setting himself back up in his new cave, with the result that we had NO internet connection at all. After several hours he managed to speak to someone who helped sort it out and I can now get on with the assignment I had intended to commence this afternoon...except that while I was waiting I made a birthday gift tag for Tim's sister's birthday because she does meet some of the parameters of the SBB September challenge. Tim usually doesn't say until the last minute if he wants a card made for someone, so I can feel smugly content that there is something ready and waiting for him that should fit the bill, at least where his sister is concerned!
Having made the tag I need to get it posted here on my blog in order to get it loaded onto the SBB site before anything else happens with this little network of ours...so it looks as if the uni assignment will just have to wait another day.
here is the pretty challenge photograph...lovely colouring!
and here is my take on the challenge...a Happy Birthday tag for someone special..
I added a pink chain, a large pearl drop and some pinky crystals to a small silver pin and added them to the back of the tag...if attached to a nice bottle of local bubbly they will clink deliciously as it is being delivered.
.I used sticky back canvas, a lace stamp from WPlus9 (Chantilly), clear embossed the image onto watercolour paper and used Victorian Velvet Distress Ink to highlight the embossing, a row of pearls and some stained seam binding, a large TH grungy tag, some SSS word dies layered double for stability, some tiny vintage text roses, a larger pink and glimmery rose I made a while back and a teeny golden dragonfly complete the tag.
My window...it is lovely to be able to see the day while working, even if it is not a spectacular view...but I can see the birds in the bird bath, always and endlessly amusing!
First of all I want to say terrific blog! I had a quick question that I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your head before writing. I have had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out. I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints? Many thanks!
Looks like you have been just a little busy... Your room looks fabulous and great view or no, it is great to have a window (hope it helps with the lighting for the videos - I got my hubby to change the lights in my room to LED and it helped a treat but I still have a couple on the desk over where I create) Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful tag with us at Scrapbook Boutique!
Wonderful tag. Bet she likes it.
What a wonderful new space with great natural light and all your toys!
Beautiful tag. Love what you have added to the back. Hope you enjoy your new scrap space. Thanks for joining in at Scrapbook Boutique.
Di that is wonderful news that you have been relocated to your own brighter space in your home - woohoo! It looks great too. Love that gorgeous tag which is just perfect for the SB Sept Challenge.


Eight years ago, Anne Elliot was persuaded that her family's honor was more important than her own happiness. She has suffered ever since. Now the man she turned away has returned. Can Captain Wentworth forgive Anne, or will he be charmed instead by the beautiful Louisa? Will Anne be persuaded to marry her cousin, or will she find the strength to follow her heart? The extravagance of Anne's foolish father, the greedy plotting of false friends, and a near-fatal accident bring danger into Anne's safe world. Their hearts assailed by resentment, regrets and rivals, can Anne and Captain Wentworth now reach across the void that separates them to love each other again?

My connection is still atrocious but this painting by Manet, posted by Maedaz at A Small Press Life, is immensely cheering!
I adore this painting; in fact, it is my favourite by Manet. A beautifully framed copy hangs in my dining room.
It's far below zero–the chilliest temperature of the season. Since this painting makes me feel happy, content, and warm, I thought you might enjoy it, too.

Tornaújfalu () község Szlovákiában, a Kassai kerület Kassa-környéki járásában.

Fekvése
Kassától 35 km-re délnyugatra, a Bódva partján található.

Története

A régészeti leletek tanúsága szerint területén már az újkőkorban is éltek emberek. A község területén, a Drozdová dűlőben kőkorszaki kőszerszám készítő műhely és hallstatt kori cserépmaradványok kerültek elő. A Kenderföld dűlő területén a La Tène-kultúra, a római kor és a korai szláv korszak különböző tárgyi emlékeit találták. Az Alsó-Hármasholdas dűlőben a bükki kultúra és a korai szláv kor maradványaira bukkantak. A 8–9. századból származó régészeti leletek tanúsága szerint szláv település volt itt, mely az egyik legrégibbnek bizonyult a mai Kelet-Szlovákia területén. A Várhegyen egykor földvár állt, melyet szintén szláv eredetűnek tartanak. Anonymus Gesta Hungaroruma szerint a honfoglalás után a Bódva vidékét Bors vezér népe szállta meg.

A mai települést 1340-ben "Wyfalu" alakban említik először a tornai váruradalom részeként, mint Tekus ispán (comes) utódainak birtokát. Közülük Lászlót tartják a Tornay család alapítójának. A falu elődje valószínűleg a tatárjárás áldozatául esett és a később alapított települést már Újfalunak nevezték.

1617-ben a tornai uradalommal együtt a Keglevich család birtoka lett. 1578-tól több török támadás érte, járványok, háborúk pusztították. A falu a 17.–18. század fordulóján majdnem kihalt. 1720-tól a lakosság pótlására főként német lakosság települt ide. 1773-ban német-magyar vegyes lakosságú település. 1815-ben a község nevét Tornaújfalura változtatták. 1828-ban 69 házban 560 lakos élt itt. 1831-ben súlyos kolerajárvány pusztított, melyet 1862-ben, 1866-ban és 1873-ban újabb járványok követtek.

Fényes Elek 1851-ben kiadott geográfiai szótárában így ír a faluról: "Ujfalu (Torna), Abauj-Torna vmegyében, magyar falu, Tornához délre 1/2 órányira, a Bódva mellett: 539 kath. lak., s paroch. templommal. Termékeny határa mindenféle gabonát és sok kendert terem; rétjei kövérek; juhtenyésztése nevezetes. F. u. gróf Keglevics. Ut. p. Rosnyó."

1903-ban és 1904-ben két tragikus végű nagy tűzvész során előbb a Felvég, majd az Alvég égett le szinte teljesen.

Borovszky monográfiasorozatának Abaúj-Torna vármegyét tárgyaló része szerint: "Torna-Ujfalu, 79 házzal, 527 magyar lakossal. Postája és távirója Torna."

A trianoni diktátumig Abaúj-Torna vármegye Tornai járásához tartozott. 1938 és 1944 között újra Magyarország része.

1964-ben Tornaújfalut összevonták Bódvavendégivel és Tornahorvátival, az egyesített község a Nová Bodva, azaz Újbódva nevet kapta. 1989-ben, a rendszerváltást követően újra önálló település lett.

Népessége
1910-ben 470-en, túlnyomórészt magyarok lakták.

2001-ben 362 lakosából 329 magyar és 32 szlovák.

2011-ben 324 lakosából 297 magyar és 25 szlovák.

Nevezetességei
 A Keresztelő Szent János tiszteletére emelt, római katolikus templom eredetileg egy 1328-ból származó gótikus építmény, melyet – miután több tűzvész miatt is további javításokat végeztek rajta – 1780-ban barokk stílusban építettek át. Legutolsó átépítése a 19. század második felében történt.
 Klasszicista stílusban, 1772-ben épült a reformátusok temploma, melyhez csak a 19. század közepén toldhattak tornyot, és ez is átvészelt kisebb-nagyobb károkkal több tűzvészt. 1960-ban és 1998-ban renoválták.
 A két templom közti területen egy régi porta most tájházként szolgál. Itt őrzik a népi kultúra megmaradt emlékeit, használati tárgyakat, viseleteket, szerszámokat.
