Over the years, the Joker has become one of the most iconic villains of any medium, and on the big screen in particular, we've seen some extremely memorable portrayals of the Clown Prince of Crime. From Jack Nicholson's take on the character back in 1989's Batman to Heath Ledger's Academy Award winning work for The Dark Knight, whenever Mr. J shows up, it's always worth taking notice of, and that's usually because of the individuals chosen to bring him to life.
While nowadays we're most familiar with the two aforementioned actors' work in the role, if things had turned out differently, we may have seen John Lithgow in the purple suit. That's right, the actor flirted with the part at one point in his career, ultimately choosing to turn it down – something he still regrets to this day. And really, can you blame him?
In an interview with Vulture this past weekend, Lithgow revealed that he was in the running to play the Joker in 1989's Batman and was apparently the top choice. This was actually before Tim Burton even got involved, as Tremors' Joe Dante was originally going to direct. That version of the project never got off the ground, obviously, but Lithgow says that turning down the offer wasn't the smartest thing he's done.
Interestingly enough, he got another chance to play the part when Burton came on board, though according to him, the audition didn't go too well. In fact, as he tells Vulture, it was one of his worst ever.
Of course, everything ended up working out, as Lithgow has forged an extremely successful career for himself while Burton's Batman went on to become one of the greatest comic book movies of all-time, boasting an iconic performance from Nicholson as the Joker that earned the actor much acclaim – not to mention a massive payday.
Still, it's hard not to wonder what Lithgow could have done with the role. We've seen him play deranged villains many times in the past and there's no doubt he would've made an excellent Joker. That being said, could he have done as good a job as Jack? What do you think? Sound off in the usual place with your thoughts!

Q: How to get count in Django for a model two foreign keys away I have three modles in my Django app as follows:
class City(models.Model):
    city_name = models.CharField(length=50)

class Area(models.Model):
    city = models.ForeignKey(City)
    area_name = models.CharField(length=50)

class Person(models.Model):
    area = models.ForeignKey(Area)
    person_name = models.CharField(length=50)

I require cities in order of their population (i.e. Person basis). How is it possible with Django?

A: Use annotate to count population.
City.objects.annotate(population=Count("area_set___person_set")).order_by("population")

London: 60 Things to See and Do (Part 1)
June 14, 2018 by Jen Lyons 11 Comments
Arguably one of the greatest cities in the world, London is bursting at the brim with things to see and do.
Having lived in London for two years and spent a lot of that time being a tourist, I know a fair bit about the city and what attracts people to it. So, I have challenged myself to come up with a list of 60 things to see and do in London.
This list is completely random and not in any order but will included the more obvious well trodden sights along with some you may not have heard of.
Even if you have visited London before, I hope you find something on this list that will make you want to go back for more!
Built in the 17th Century, this beautiful (inside and out) cathedral is one of the most recognisable sights in London.
The impressive dome, modelled on St Peter's Basilica in Rome, rises 118 meters to the very tip of the cross on top and is one of the highest domes in the world.
Climb up into the dome for spectacular panoramic views of London or head down into the crypts to see the tombs and memorials of some of the UK's greatest heroes.

The rest of the park is taken up with sports facilities, an Open Air Theatre, London Zoo and Primrose Hill.

There are a number of famous landmarks within the park including Serpentine Lake where you can hire a row-boat, Speakers' Corner and the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fountain along with countless statues.

The Changing of the Guard takes place in the forecourt at Buckingham Palace and is a colourful spectacle of British pageantry.
Lasting about 45 minutes, the ceremony is basically as the name states, a changing of the guard. The royal band provides the music as the guards (and band) march and move into various formations before the guard is officially changed.
The guards, or Household Troops as they are formally known, have had the job of guarding the Sovereign since 1660.
From time to time this privilege is extended to regiments of the British Army, with most of these men having served overseas.

Certain parts of the palace are open to the public such as both the King's and Queen's Apartments, various ever-changing Royal exhibitions and the lovely formal gardens.
Recently renovated, it is lovely inside and out with one of the nicest grand staircase I have seen. If you can, come in spring time to see the garden all in full bloom.

The Museum of London tells the story of, well, London (who'd a thought it). It contains more than two million objects in its collections and holds the largest archaeological archive in Europe.
Documenting London's history from prehistoric times to the modern-day, its collections form a series of chronological galleries. These galleries contain artifacts, pictures, models and diagrams focusing mostly on archaeological discoveries, the building of the city, urban development and social and cultural life.
A lot of the displays are interactive making it interesting for all ages.

The Natural History Museum is a very cool place. It specialises in life and earth science specimens comprising some 70 million items within five main collections, botany, entomology, mineralogy, palaeontology and zoölogy.
Because the museum is so old (1881), many of the collections have great historical and scientific value, including specimens collected by Charles Darwin.
Some of the biggest attractions include its exhibition of dinosaur skeletons including the large Diplodocus in the central hall and the mammal exhibit including the giant Blue Whale that takes up an entire room and is impossible to photograph in its entirety.
You could easily spend a whole day getting lost in this museum.

Nothing beats a British Pub for a pint and a bite to eat. Here you can enjoy a range of local and international ales while eating traditional pub food such as bangers 'n' mash, fish 'n' chips and the most popular Sunday roast.
Traditional pubs are usually small with intimate seating areas, small doorways and well-worn wooden furniture. They have character to boot.
Becoming increasingly popular over the last 15 years or so, is the gastropub. Slightly more upmarket than a traditional pub, expect to find a variety of local and international beers mixed in with hard to find craft beers. The menu is more upmarket too, with modern twists on the traditional pub meals and fusion style dishes. The setting will likely be more modern too.
Everyone who lives in London has their local or favourite pub that they frequent regularly. Having lived in London for nearly two years I developed my favourites. Here are a few of those that I hope you try out when visiting London.
The Leinster Arms – Small, friendly, traditional pub with a great classic menu including a delicious variety of sausages.
The Red Lion – This tiny pub, located in a passageway off Pall Mall, is mostly frequented by local wealthy gentlemen and is a great place to stop for a pint after a day of sightseeing.
The Windsor Castle – A locals pub a few minutes walk from Notting Hill Gate. Tiny doors, intimate seating areas, beer garden and delicious food.
The Kings Arms – Located in the lovely back streets of Waterloo near Southbank, The Kings Arms is a quintessential ale pub complete with prop up bar. There are lots of different ales to try and a great menu including pub classics and Thai food.
Why not book a a historical pub walking tour with a local!
Traditional Afternoon Tea @ The Ritz
What could be more British than a traditional afternoon tea. And the best place to partake in this simple British tradition is The Ritz.
Served in the spectacular Palm Court, you get the choice of several varieties of tea and a delicious menu of sandwiches and sweets including cucumber sandwiches and scones. It is truly an unforgettable experience.
Address: 150 Piccadilly W1J 9BR
Nearest Station: Green Park Tube Station
Hours: Sittings at 11:30, 13:30, 15:30 & 17:30 everyday
Booking are essential and can be made here.
Portobello Rd Market
One of London's most notable street markets is Portobello Rd Market. Located in Notting Hill, a short walk from Notting Hill Gate, finding the market on a Saturday is simple, just follow the crowds of people walking from the tube station.
Weekdays are all about fresh produce and you will find it much quieter. Friday and Saturday is known for its second-hand clothes and antiques, with Saturday being the busiest day where you will have to fight your way through the crowds to explore this incredibly popular market.
Along the road there are lots of places to eat including food stalls, pubs and quite a few vegetarian cafes.
Address: Starts crn Westbourne Gr & Portobello Rd
Nearest Station: Notting Hill Gate Tube Station
Hours: 8am-6.30pm Mon-Wed; 8am-1pm Thur; 8am-6.30pm Fri, Sat
While in the area, check out this 2-hour guided walking tour of Notting Hill including Portobello Rd.
London has some great shopping opportunities from markets, small boutiques, department stores, high-end and of course popular big name brands.
Oxford St shopping starts at Marble Arch and runs down to Tottenham Court Rd and about half way along Oxford St you will find Regent St which runs down to Piccadilly Circus.
There are also lots of arcades and laneways to explore off these streets. On Oxford St visit popular department stores such as Selfridges, John Lewis and Marks & Spencer to find everything and anything or sample delicious foods from their food halls.
Along with these department stores you will find all the big name fashion and accessories brands such as Zara, H&M, Primark, Dorothy Perkins, Forever 21, Monsoon ……………I could go on for hours.
Head down Regent St for a more upmarket shopping experience. Brands like Levis, Ted Baker, Timberland and the Apple store can all be found here along with the famous Hamleys Toy Store.
Also just off Regent St is Carnaby St, where you will find upmarket Liberty Department Store and one off boutiques and designers.
Nearest Station: Marble Arch, Bond St, Oxford Circus, Tottenham Court Rd & Piccadilly Circus Tube Stations

Regent's Canal
The Regent's Canal provides a link from the Paddington arm of the Grand Union Canal to the Limehouse Basin and the River Thames in east London.
A great way to explore this canal is on a canal boat trip from Little Venice to Camden Lock. The canal boat cruises along leafy fringes of Regents Park, London Zoo and through the dark and mysterious Maida HIll tunnel, finishing in Camden Lock.
You can do a one-way or return journey in either direction and it makes for a great day out when combining it with a visit to Camden Markets.

Nearest Station: Paddington, Warrwick Ave or Camden Town Tube Stations
Hours: Summer departures on the hour from 10:00 to 17:00, less frequent in the Winter
Technically I am cheating here because London Walks offers more than just one thing to do in London. Choose from 100's of walking tours in and around London. Each walk lasts about two hours, always depart from near a tube station and are guided by an expert London guide who will dazzle you with stories, myths and give you a history lesson or two.
I have done about a dozen or so and have walked away from each one a very satisfied customer.
Each tour is themed and there will be something to interest everyone including hidden London, Palaces, Camden, a ghost walk of the City, The Beatles, Kensington, war-time, Soho, pubs, I could go on for hours.

OMG!! I have visited 90% of the above places during my short 3 months official visit. I have also visited places apart from these like the shopping streets, Brighton beach etc 😛 I miss London 🙁 What a wonderful city 🙂 🙂
Wow you did a lot in 3 months Laks. There is so much to see in London, it's an incredible city. Stay tuned over the next few weeks for lots more London and Great Britain. Thanks for stopping by!
I lived in London for ten years but I'm sure there's still going to be a fair few of your top 60 that I haven't done! One is the Houses of Parliament but have that lined up for next month.
Now that I have written out my full list of 60 things I honestly think I could have gone to 100. There is so much to do there. I will be interested to hear about your experience with the Houses of Parliament as I wasn't able to visit due to not being a British citizen. Thanks for stopping by Lucy!
Awesome. Thanks for sharing. It was really helping me to explore in London.
That's great! Have a nice time there.

This London baths alternative was suggested by a friend. If we had more time/forecast wasn't lightning we would have done it for the fun, maybe next visit when we have more time to tick of these things to see and do in London. […]

The AeroBed Classic Double Airbed is one of the more popular inflatable airbeds from Aerobed. It is portable, lightweight, can accomodate two people whilst giving superior comfort that helps you get a good night's sleep.
For maximum flexibility, effortable inflation in under 1 minute and even faster deflation, you can be assured of being able to put up last minute guests quickly and easily.
Unlike the raised airbeds, which can be heavier and more bulkier to carry around, the Aerobed Classic Double is an inflatable mattress airbed which means it is closer to the ground but this makes for a lighter and more portable air bed. Quite handy for you to take with you if you are going to be staying over the night at someone's house and don't want to have to sleep on a settee.
The Aerobed Classic rolls up into a portable carry bag and can be stored away in a cupboard until you need it. It is simple to get out and inflate and even quicker to deflate and clear it away out of site, leaving your house clean and tidy with no mess and no obvious signs of extra guests having stayed the night.
For huge social get togethers such as at Christmas time, having a raised air bed double at home means you can easily have people staying over for the night. No need for your guests to rush home at midnight, and it makes even more sense to put up your friends or family if they have been drinking.
If you have young children, you'll find that for them, sleeping on airbeds is a bit of an adventure and you might have to give into them and let them sleep on an air bed instead of you!
If you have a young family, it might be an idea to get the blow up beds for kids as well as getting air beds for adults.
How Safe Is Your Aerobed Classic Double Airbed?
This is a valid concern as many who have not slept on an air bed before will be concerned about the weight these air beds can take.
Aerobeds have undergone stringent testing and are made from heavy-duty and durable vinyl with electronically welded seams. They are touch and long-lasting and have been tested to 295kg.
Unlike a traditional bed, you can adjust the firmness of your self inflating air bed at the touch of a button using the One Touch comfort control. You can have this as soft or as firm as you want, whatever feels right to your body.

The Aerobed range of airbeds has a bigger selection of airbeds such as the Aerobed Classic Double which looks like the standard mattresses that are low to the ground. The main advantage to using an Aerobed is that it comes with a special pump that inflates the Aerobed in just under a few minutes.
Classic Aerobeds are great for sleepovers and for impromptu get-togethers. You can easily fit several or more of them in your family room or den when you need to accommodate some unexpected guests. These Aerobed Classic airbeds are also great for dorm rooms or for sleepovers. Keep one on hand in your college room for those times you have extra guests.
Airbeds are perfectly portable and lightweight which makes them easy to transport and carry with you in your vehicle. If you ever need to use it you'll have it on hand. You can bring it with when you travel to a friend's home and will always have a place to stay on their floor using your air mattress. Stay on your air mattress after a late night out or after going to a party. Self-inflating airbeds give you a comfortable night's sleep no matter where you are.
Families love Aerobeds, too. You won't need to keep a whole room devoted to guests when you have Aerobeds. They are a cheap and quick alternative to having a spare room, complete with normal bed, just for guests.
Choose an Aerobed style that provides you with the temporary bed that you need to make your guests comfortable. Typically the best style for occasional guests is the Raised Aerobed. The Raised Aerobed is styled much the same as a traditional bed with the height being comparable to that of your regular mattress and box spring combination. This height is easiest for people of all ages to get in and out of.
If you have kids you know that they love to have sleepovers. There is a style of airbeds for kids that are designed so that your child can take these to sleepovers and won't need anything else, no duvet or pillow required because these are all built in to the Ready Beds.
Many people still tend to use sleeping bags if they are going over to stay at someone's house and for many children on sleepovers, the sleeping bag was deemed the perfect solution because of its lightweight. However, airbeds have come a long way in the last 5 years especially and you will find that the newer style of airbeds, especially for children are super light and easy to carry, even for little hands.
If you have ever slept in a sleeping bag you will appreciate that it really doesn't offer much in the way of cushioning you from the hard floor. An airbed is a better choice than a regular sleeping bag because the sleeping bag doesn't provide any support for the back. Tots and small children can use airbeds for kids which are perfect to take on holiday too.
Air mattresses are especially good for taking on camping trips. There are special airbeds that are made for outdoor use. These beds are made of a more durable and thicker material so they can withstand more rugged use. There are several styles of Outdoor Aerobeds to pick from including a style that is designed to be rugged yet lightweight for use in backpacking.
People have long kept spare bedrooms for guests that visit for an overnight stay. Inflatable beds are the best solution to the modern lifestyle.
Today you can use extra rooms in more functional ways that allow you access to the space until you have overnight guests. When guests arrive you simply need to inflate the bed, add some clean sheets and your room is instantly transformed into an overnight haven. The inflatable airbeds are the perfect choice to help transform your room into a guest room that people will envy.
There are many inflatable beds to choose from but when looking for a good choice for your guest room the Aerobed range of airbeds is among the top picks. Aerobeds are well known for their comfort and durability, two features that are important in choosing guest beds. In the past people have used pull-out sofa beds, also called convertible sleepers, however these can be quite uncomfortable. In fact many people have found that the sleeper sofa is not comfortable as either a bed or a sofa, making it a poor choice in the long run.
Airbeds are temporary sleeping solution and come in the form of an inflatable mattress or blow-up bed that you can easily store in a closet until it is needed.
Most airbeds are easy to inflate and comes with their own pump that allows you to inflate the bed in a matter of just a few minutes. Airbeds are so versatile and come is handy especially if you entertain a lot and tend to have many overnight guests. They are also a great way of accomodating far flung family and friends who come to visit you for special get togethers at Christmas time, for instance.
When looking for airbeds, remember that they come in different sizes so you can get a few of them for use throughout the home. For example you can choose the Ready Beds for kids for use in your children's rooms for when they have a friend sleep overnight. Keep a few of the twin size (single person size) on hand for sleepovers. They can easily be inflated as needed for use in the TV room or den.
Aerobeds come in a variety of styles and sizes. You can choose the one that is best for your particular situation. For general guestroom use the Premier Raised Aerobed is the best choice. These beds have two joined sections that make the bed rise almost the same as a traditional bed. This is a good all-around choice because some older individuals may have trouble getting in and out of inflatable beds that sit close to the floor. The Raised Aerobed makes a perfect choice when you want to provide your guests with a luxurious and comfortable sleep experience.
Aerobeds provide a good night's sleep because they are some of the most comfortable beds of any type that you'll find. Aerobeds are inflated beds that give you the back support that you need exactly where you need it most. The bed comes with a remote inflation comfort control that lets you easily adjust the feel of the mattress to your own preference with just a touch of the hand. In fact many people are so impressed with the wonderful night's sleep they get on an Aerobed that they use it as their everyday sleeping mattress.
The Raised Aerobed is not only comfortable but is also very easy to use. Keep it rolled up and tucked away in its special case that allows it to fit into any closet. The Aerobed is made of premium materials making it durable yet comfortable. The Raised Aerobed comes with a washable fleece cover and uses standard sized bed sheets. There is a 3-year warranty on the Raised Aerobed ensuring that you'll have a bed you can count on for years to come.
If you prefer something as comfortable but a little cheaper, then opt for the mattress type of airbeds, which are closer to the ground such as the Aerobed Classic Double airbed.
With so much variety around for the choice of airbed, you will easily be able to find the right airbed, at a price that is affordable for you and still be able to put up your guests with ease.
If you're wondering how to find an airbed that is the best for you then you first need to determine what it is you are after.
The best place to begin is to determine what your main use for the airbed will be.
Will you be using the airbed as an extra bed for overnight guests?
Are you looking for single airbeds or double airbeds?
Do you prefer raised airbeds or inflatable mattress type airbeds?
Do you want the airbed for adults or Ready Beds for kids?
Will you want to use the airbed outdoors?
There are airbeds that are perfect for every situation. Choosing the right airbed will ensure that you get a durable and reliable airbed that will be easy to use and will provide you with a great night's sleep.
When it comes to airbeds the most famous name is Aerobed. While other brands often attempt to provide similar features there is no other inflatable mattress that is as reliable and as feature-rich as the Aerobed. The Aerobed has a simple design yet is highly rated as one of the best portable beds available on the market. Aerobeds are made with high quality materials. They always strive to provide the best products possible at competitive prices.
Price isn't the main factor to consider when choosing an airbed. You need to consider value for your money. While there are probably some air mattresses that are less expensive than the Aerobed these are of inferior quality and likely won't last long as the more durable and rigourously tested Aerobeds. However, it depends on what your are intending to use the airbed for.
If you want a cheap and temporary sleeping solution for extra friends who are coming over to stay, you can get a great quality and reasonably priced Intex airbed. If you want an inflatable bed with the height of your everyday bed and want a bit more luxury, then you might be interested in the Aerobed platinum airbed.
You'll end up replacing your cheap airbed several times while an Aerobed is still going strong. That's because an Aerobed is made to last and is a dependable purchase.
When choosing an air mattress another big consideration is comfort. Most other air mattresses simply inflate and that's it. The Aerobed can come with special controls that allow you to adjust the firmness of the mattress to suit your own tastes. The Aerobed is thus able to provide you with the exact level of comfort that is best for you giving you a better night's sleep than most traditional mattresses can give. If you want the utmost in comfort choose an Aerobed model.
You want an air mattress that is easy to use. Cheap air mattresses need to be blown up using a hand pump or worse, your own air power. Instead you'll want an air mattress that can be inflated quickly and effortlessly. The Aerobed comes with a patented air pump that fits into the bed to give an almost instant inflation. Some model pumps are battery operated while others are electric. Once the bed is inflated you'll want to be able to remove the pump. When you're ready to put the bed away you need a quick way to remove the air. Aerobeds can be deflated just as quickly as they were inflated.
Storage is always important when it comes to choosing an airbed. Aerobeds come with their own storage bag. Simply roll up the deflated Aerobed and place it into the storage bag. Now the small sized bed can be stored in almost any location including a closet. Avoid other beds that can't easily be stored once they are out of their original packaging.
Hopefully, this article will have helped you in deciding what type of airbed might be the right choice for you.
Yes, some people actually do though it probably is not recommended to use these inflatable beds as a permanent sleeping solution.
Many people use an Aerobed as a temporary solution only to discover how great it is as their regular bed. They then decide to keep using their Aerobed and simply don't go back to their regular traditional bed for a while. Of course, over time, the inflatable mattress will deflate slowly and will need to be inflated again.
Why do so many people want to leave their old beds for the Aerobed? The short answer is comfort.
inflatable bed that comes in a variety of styles and sizes to suit anyone's needs. Many people use the Aerobed as a guest bed when they have unexpected company. The Aerobed is a huge comfort improvement over the futon, sleeper sofa, floor or sleeping bag. In fact self-inflating beds are so comfortable that many people that sleep on them for the first time, perhaps at a friend's house whilst staying over the night, want to go home and purchase one for themselves. They are a useful item to have spare in the house in case of any last minute weekenders.
Its not just the Aerobed range of airbeds that are so comfortable but also many other leading and well-known brands such as Intex and Coleman too. When it comes to Aerobed airbeds, you can easily customize the level of firmness or support that you get with the bed.
You can inflate the bed to a firmness that you like the best. Many models also come with a remote control that allows you to adjust the firmness with a simple touch control. You can adjust the comfort level while you're in the bed until you find the exact level that you prefer. The Aerobed is a much more affordable option to the expensive air control beds that you may have seen advertised.
Aerobeds make a great choice for regular sleeping. They are easy to set up and take down when needed. They are perfect for taking with you on a trip, to visit friends or even when you move. The Aerobed is an easy alternative to a bulky traditional mattress and box spring combination that quickly wear out. Aerobeds are great for your back. They provide the spinal support that doctors recommend while sleeping.
Proper back support helps you to reduce or completely eliminate back pain. Even some people who have suffered from chronic back problems have found that the Aerobed gives them the support they need to get rid of their pain forever. The key to helping your back problems lies in the support of your spine while sleeping. Most traditional mattresses just don't give you the support that your back needs.
Most people have long ago forgotten what it's like to get a real night's sleep. Discomfort makes us toss and turn while we search in our sleep for a position that will keep us feeling good. The Aerobed gives you that comfort simply and easily. Once you sleep on an Aerobed you won't want to go back to your old mattress. You'll wake up refreshed and renewed. That's why many people actually do give up their traditional bed sets in favour of sleeping on an Aerobed on a regular basis.
For little toddlers there are many great alternatives for inflatable beds for kids such as character themed beds for kids or safe travel beds with sides to ensure that very young children stay snug and inside their beds instead of toppling out.
Generally speaking, many people who experience sleeping on an airbed for the time time are amazed by how comfortable and supportive the inflatable mattresses of today are. And whilst many sleep soundly like a baby, it is only a temporary sleeping solution and over time will not offer your back as much support as a conventional bed.
For this reason alone, you should never really use air beds in the place of your everyday bed.
Airbeds Or Floor: Given the Choice, What Would You Prefer?
Given a choice, which would you pick as being the best for you? Sleeping on the floor, or sleeping on an airbed? Well, sleeping on an airbed, of course! Who would not want to sleep on something that is infinitely more comfortable than the floor?
Keep in mind that sleeping on an airbed automatically creates a barrier—a soft one—between your body and the ground. Usually, the ground is not particularly soft, so sleeping on an airbed is definitely the preferred choice for anyone to pick.
For example, if you were going camping, there are several different models of AeroBeds airbeds that you could pick from that would give you support. One of these is the AeroBed Active Double which is perfect for family camping trips as it can inflate in less than 1 minute and deflate in a super speedy 15 secs.
Another is the AeroBed Explorer Single which has Quadra Coils built into it, and can be used while camping in a number of places.
Airbeds are comfortable and will help you sleep at night, if you buy the right kind, that has built in support in it. There are plenty out on the market that do not have support that is very good in them—and in the long run, they will not help you sleep as well.
AeroBed has another set of airbeds made for the indoors, of course. As an example, one to look at would be the AeroBed Platinum Raised With Comfort Zones. This airbed has built in an air coil system of comfort zones, and inflates to the height of a regular bed. Due to the air coil system, pressure points are eliminated, so you will sleep quite well.
However, due to the fact that air does expand and contract because of warmth and cold, airbeds can sometimes tend to deflate very slightly overnight, although this is not always the case. Some will do so more than others and the deflation rate will also depend on when you inflated the airbed in the first place.
Filling up an airbed, depending on the model, is not particularly difficult. Some models have pumps that are automatic, some are pumps that you have to pump yourself—yet others are pumps that you have to charge using your car battery.
When you or your company lies down on the airbed after it has been inflated, it will be quite full. However, due to the pressure that your bodies create on the bladder that an airbed truthfully is, some deflation will occur.
Deflation does happen in any airbed, no matter what any manufacturer claims. Pressure from the body or bodies lying on the airbed forces the air to leak out, just a tiny bit, while sleeping. AeroBeds, the company, does provide a minor repair kit with each of its airbeds, just in case something happens.
The deflation may not be as severe as if there was a rip in the airbed from an animal putting a hole in it, or a pin hole for example.
Air Beds As Regular Beds: Is It Possible?
Many people look at the price of the typical coil mattress and boxsprings, roll their eyes and want to cry. At the same time, the same people vow to find a solution that is cheaper, and hopefully much more comfortable, too.
Memory foam mattresses are one option, but there is an even better option in terms of money—airbeds. Airbeds are easy to maintain, put up and take down so that you have extra room to work in when you need it, and—best of all—fairly cheap.
There are quite a few airbeds on the market now, and some are not worth the effort of buying—in regards to comfort. On the other hand, there are some, such as the Intex Raised Queen airbed that really are are great quality inflatable beds. Handy for extra visitors.
For example, buying an airbed off the shelf at your local supermarket or discount store is probably not going to give you a lot of comfort. Yet, taking the time to go shopping at camping stores or even a high end sporting goods store will give you a better product comparison than at the other two places.
Even better, shopping online at Amazon.co.uk will give you plenty of airbeds choices and you can easily compare different brands and prices. We often find that Amazon has the best prices around a lot of the time and regularly offer FREE shipping on selected items.
However, there are consumers who are in need of beds that will provide them with support for their backs, but still at a good price. So, the question is—is this possible? Truthfully, the answer is, it depends on the type of airbed that you purchase.
Some of the airbeds that have been cheaply purchased will come with a pump that you have to pump up and down in order to get the air into the bed itself and that doesn't insure that it will be very comfortable to sleep on. Others will be a bit better than that, and have pumps that you will be able to plug into a wall, and get a more even air distribution.
Be willing to spend a bit more for your airbed and look for one that has some type of support system built into it. Something like a Quadra-Coil system found in the AeroBed range of beds, for example.
When looking into the Quadra-Coil system, it is interesting to note that it ensures a stable, even sleeping surface. Not only does it do that, the air distribution throughout the airbed remains equal, so there are no floppy corners or sinking middles.
Knowing this for a fact makes one want to climb right on, and test out the AeroBed inflatable beds just to see what they feel like. Additionally, knowing that these beds will fill up to a nice, thick twenty three centimeters, one knows that there will be plenty of support the body to sleep on.
This leads to another thought—the AeroBed Classic Double is able handle weights of up to 300 kgs.
How many other airbeds are capable of handling that kind of weight?
Checking out the AeroBed Classic Double even further leads one to discover that the ease of setting it up, and taking it down, would make it a breeze to use. Simply attaching the pump to the opening on the side, and flipping a switch yields full inflation in less than sixty seconds.
For those who want to let a little air out to make their airbed just a bit softer, then simply press a button, and that matter is solved. Relax, sleep, and then get up and open the valve—fifteen seconds later the bed is deflated. How simple is that?
People who would like to use the AeroBed classic double as a regular bed can do so, for a few days. We are not sure how long you will be able to sleep on an inflatable bed for and whether long term use of these types of beds, might cause you back problems later on.
However, for a few days, sleeping on an airbed poses no problem at all.
Simply remember that the air in the room in the evening is usually cooler, so the air will expand more in the bed as it fills up. As it warms up, the air will contract a bit, and the bed will shrink.
So, yes, it is perfectly possible to use an airbed as a regular bed for a few days and still be just as comfortable. With just a little bit of adjustment, you can really enjoy it, too.

Nursing Excellence Your Stories TeleICU Continues to Evolve
Nurse Story
TeleICU Continues to Evolve
At the bedside, when teleICU came to my unit I was very skeptical. But after seeing for myself what those extra nurses brought to the table … it turned out to be the best tool to care for our patients.
Lisa-Mae Williams
Lisa-Mae Williams is a nurse leader at the forefront of teleICU practice and a member of the task force that crafted the recently published "AACN TeleICU Nursing Practice: An Expert Consensus Statement Supporting High Acuity, Progressive and Critical Care." It offers a fresh perspective on this evolving area of healthcare and updates AACN's benchmark teleICU nursing guidelines first published in 2013. Williams' career has evolved with the subspecialty — from bedside to teleICU nurse to nurse leader — and she brings a front-line perspective to the statement's real-life scenarios, recommendations and practice model framework.
I'm operations director of telehealth and eICU at Baptist Health South Florida in Miami. I've been a nurse for 16 years, with 10 of those in telemedicine.
Why did you decide to become a nurse?
I don't think I had a choice. Growing up in Jamaica, I was always the 4-year-old taking care of all the other children in nursery school. I think I was born to be a nurse. I've never wanted to do anything else. I've geared my entire life around healthcare, so it wasn't a decision. It was more this is what I am, so this is what I'm doing.
What was your most meaningful nursing experience?
It was as a critical care nurse several years ago in the surgical ICU. A gentleman was nervous about having open-heart surgery. I had never prepped a patient before. I talked to him that first day, then picked up in the morning and even went with him to the OR. It was unusual for me to actually see a patient prior to open-heart surgery. His family was there and I told them, "I'm going to be here. We have a plan. We talked about everything." The surgery went over by several hours. They had trouble restarting his heart. The family was there, and everybody was very nervous and anxious, so I waited. The gentleman was a thin man, and he came out very swollen, at least three times his weight. I didn't recognize him. And I kept thinking to myself, how am I going to let the family see him like this? We weren't able to save him, but the part that really impacted me was how to bring dignity to him in that state, that he didn't look like himself and then bringing the family in to see him. That was the most difficult experience but also rewarding because the family was so thankful.
You're defending your doctoral dissertation soon, right?
Yes! I actually defend in the next couple of weeks. [laughs] Now, I'm telling you, I'd better do well! I'm so excited to finally be almost done. Yay! I actually used the original AACN teleICU guidelines and model of success as the framework for my study. [NOTE: Williams successfully defended her doctoral dissertation, "TeleICU Nursing Practice to Prevent Failure to Rescue of Patients in Critical Care With a Diagnosed Hospital-Acquired Condition," earning a PhD from the Medical University of South Carolina.]
What attracted you to teleICU?
The ability to impact patient care with the available technology. In the ICU and at the bedside, you're running around, in procedures, dealing with family members. In the teleICU I'm able to step back and survey the situation. I have time to assess trends and provide a synopsis of what's going on to my bedside counterparts. I like that investigative type of nursing — putting the picture together to relay pertinent information in real time.
How did you prepare for this newer form of practice?
When I began 10 years ago, there wasn't much out there to prepare you for working in teleICU. There was nothing in the literature, no certification. Folks didn't understand how a teleICU nurse practiced nursing. It's been an emerging subspecialty of critical care for the past few years, but now it's evolving. Today, there's an opportunity to learn about teleICU and prepare for working in that environment. Certification also plays into the teleICU setting, because those nurses tend to be the most experienced resources of specialty knowledge for their bedside counterparts.
In your 10 years serving in teleICU practice, what has changed?
I have seen a lot change over the years but mostly in the level of understanding what teleICU is all about, and what it can contribute to the patient care environment. There's still a lot of education needed. The biggest change I've seen among teleICU nurses is moving from that reactive "needing permission" mindset to becoming a more proactive part of the team, seeking to prevent clinical compromise or decline and trying to catch things earlier. [Bedside nurses] have become more accepting of their [teleICU nurses'] interventions and recommendations. The trend I'm most pleased with is the teleICU's impact on patient outcomes, mortality, length of stay and compliance to best practices. Also, in many teleICU settings there's a central hub, bringing different hospital critical care units together under one umbrella for a standardized approach to care. That's what I see as people and institutions grow more comfortable with the technology.
What was your role in crafting the AACN teleICU nursing consensus statement?
I worked with the task force on writing the exemplars that accompany the consensus statement. We looked for exemplars that really showed how expanded the role of teleICU has become and scenarios where teleICU nurses are collaborating beyond the ICU — in transport, helping with telestroke patients or other types of health services. We looked at how teleICU nurses participate in disaster management, so there's a hurricane exemplar. The whole idea was to show that the scope of practice really had moved beyond what we first thought and outlined in the original AACN guidelines.
How will the teleICU nursing consensus statement advance telemedicine?
It shows that AACN is invested in teleICU nursing. They not only took the lead by defining the first teleICU nursing practice guidelines but now have come back, revisiting it years later to ensure that it's still in line with what we are practicing, and updated it to reflect what's current. This is such a relatively new extended specialty within critical care, but the most exciting part is showing the value teleICU brings to critical care nursing and validating it. For teleICU nurses who have difficulty articulating their practice, here are experts who feel that this is important enough to produce a consensus statement that has evolved over time to reflect what teleICUs are actually doing.
What would you tell a nurse who will now have teleICU assistance?
I would tell that nurse it's nothing to be afraid of; teleICU nurses are their best friend. They are experts in critical care. They are there for their benefit and for the patient, and they're interested in the best outcome for the patients. They are not there as big brother watching. They are there as an extra set of eyes to surveil vitals and support them as they care for their most vulnerable patients. We're partners. At the bedside, when teleICU came to my unit I was very skeptical. But after seeing for myself what those extra nurses brought to the table — the available technology and time they had to assess trends and really delve into what's going on — it turned out to be the best tool to care for our patients.

Public Ethics Law: Regime for presents made to Public Officers
On November 18, 2016 the Executive Branch issued Decree No. 1179/2017 (the "Decree") (published on the Official Gazette on November 21, 2016), which implements article 18 of the Public Ethics Law – Law No. 25,188 (the "Law"). This article establishes that "Public Officers cannot receive presents, gifts or donations, assets or services as a result of their work or in the performance of their public duties…", and adds that "in the case that the presents are courtesy or diplomatic custom, the applicable authority will regulate its registration and establish in which cases said assets will be incorporated into the State's assets, either to be destined to health, social action and education, or to historical and cultural heritage."
In the first place, the Decree creates a "Register of Presents made to Public Officers" and a "Register of Trips financed by third parties" which will operate under the scope of the Anti-Corruption Office, the applicable authority, of the Argentine Ministry of Justice and Human Rights. Information from these registers is found on the Secretary's Office website.
The Decree establishes as a general principle that any individual who performs governmental functions is forbidden from receiving presents, gifts or donations of assets or services, including the free use of them, as a result of their work or in the performance of their public duties. Under the Decree, a gift given as a result of work or in the performance of public duties means a gift which would not have been given if the individual was not a public officer. However, there are a few exceptions to this prohibition:
Presents made by way of diplomatic custom, that is, recognitions received by governments.
Presents received for courtesy, provided they are commonly made.
These presents must be registered in the "Register of Presents made to Public Officers" and cannot come from individuals or entities that:
perform activities regulated or audited by the agency where the public officer performs his/her duties
manage or exploit concessions, authorizations, privileges or exemptions granted by the agency or body in which the public officer performs his/her duties
are contractors or suppliers of works, goods or services for the agency or body in which the public officer performs his/her duties
make decisions or actions on behalf of the agency where the officer performs his/her duties
have interests that may be significantly affected by a decision, action, delay or omission from the agency where the officer performs his/her duties.
In addition, presents must be incorporated into the State's assets in the event that, at the moment of the delivery, (i) the assets´ market value is greater than $4.000, as established by the Decree; or (ii) the asset´s institutional value represents the relation with the State or organism who gave it and is received as diplomatic custom.
With regard to payments of travel expenses financed by third parties, the Decree establishes that public officers may accept them only under certain circumstances:
For the organization of conferences, courses or academic or cultural activities
When payment does not arise from governments, entities, individuals or agencies who are forbidden from giving gifts to public officers
When their acceptance is neither incompatible with public officers' functions nor forbidden by special rules.
The public officers that receive these benefits must register them in the "Register of Trip financed by third parties".
Finally, the Decree entered into force 60 days after the publication in the Official Gazette.

Faux News: Breaking News, Trump Hints At Civil War
In an abrupt about-face, President Trump today called on his supporters to "liberate America" from the stay-at-home orders associated with the Covid-19 crisis, which he said were concocted by Democrats and fueled by the fake news media.
"There is no pandemic," tweeted the president, "Never has been, never was, TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY. NOW!" Boarding the presidential helicopter this morning, he was confronted by several in the news media asking why he had supported these stay-at-home measures before and in fact had just issued directives for governors to proceed with a gradual loosening of restrictions. The president lashed out at the reporters, arguing that he never claimed that the country was experiencing a pandemic. "These are all lies by the fake news media. Total lies. I have said from the get-go that just like the global warming nonsense, the whole thing is a hoax. I want everyone back to work!"
"Look," said the president, "More people die each year in automobile accidents than have died in this fake pandemic. It is all an attempt to make me look bad during an election year, to hurt my businesses, and to kill the strongest economy the world has ever seen, the economy which I created basically single-handedly by the way. My supporters understand this and will have none of it. These reckless stay-at-home actions have put over 22 million Americans out of work. And so, my rallies will continue; and if my supporters want to protest at the statehouses occupied by dictatorial, Democratic governors, I say just do it. Take 'em over if you have to! Do whatever it takes to liberate these states, and the federal government will be behind you."
Vice President Pence was the first to praise the president, saying to reporters, as he typically does whenever given a chance to speak, that Trump is the "greatest ruler of all time," and that Trump's call for the end of "so called health restrictions" was long overdue. Led by Mitch McConnell and Lindsay Graham, most Republican senators were quick to fall in line, congratulating the president for his "courageous leadership." Strong encouragement also came from the Kremlin when this morning President Putin offered his support in whatever ways would help President Trump including the use of the Russian military, if requested.
It remains unclear what will happen next. Large mobs are gathering today on the grounds of most state capitols where a Democrat is governor. Many of the protestors are armed with assault weapons and hand grenades, and several in the news media have reported seeing rocket launchers. It is rumored that some of the agitators may have access to nuclear weapons. Several observers have noted that the actions appear to be planned and well organized. Some eyewitnesses to these gathering also report hearing what sounds like the Russian language being spoken.
The country remains in what has been described by many as the biggest crisis most of us will experience in our life times. Virtually all health care experts have warned that lifting the physical distancing orders now, before extensive testing is in place, will have a disastrous effect allowing the Covid-19 coronavirus to spread like wildfire. They say that the reason that the fatalities have been lower than what was forecasted is due to the rigorous distancing regulations and the closing of businesses and nonessential activities, and that deaths are likely to skyrocket if people are suddenly allowed and encouraged to go back to work.
Many in the country, especially Democratic Party elected officials, appeared to have been caught off guard by Trump's tweets and his support for the protesters, and are unclear as to how to respond. Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader Schumer are meeting this afternoon with other leading Democrats including the apparent nominee for president, Joe Biden, to develop a response to Trump's actions. If Trump orders the U.S. military to assist actions by protestors to take over local and state governments, it is not clear what the outcome will be. Attorney General William Barr is reported to have urged the president to declare a national state of emergency, temporarily suspend the U.S. Constitution, postpone indefinitely all elections, and put the country under martial law. President Trump is said to be seriously considering these options.

Think he will do anything stop an election he thinks he will lose, and declare any election he does lose as null and void under his national emergency. Keep up the commentary Joe! Betsy
Rev Robert M Hundley says:
Thx Joe, You can almost hear Roger Stone calling DJT w a wet bottom prior to attending Detention, suggesting some equivalent to his Proud Boys & Hell's Angels routine in wh people are threatened & intimidated – standard MO for Roger, Trump's 5 yr old brain for the past 50 yrs.
Key Question: Who controls the National Guard? I think it's the Governors, & no amount of AR15, et al can stand up to the National Guard. Rest easy, these TRUMPER EVANGELICALS are a collection of wet noodles.
Did you see the joke I sent to your Messenger?
Lady: I think Trump was sent by God.
Groucho: Why, was he out of Locust?
Per NYT, yesterday's protest in Austin, Texas, was organized by InfoWars, which is located there…
This is the same group bringing us revelations like Obama used secret weapons to manipulate the weather to murder people on demand, and that IBM (for whom Bill Gates is a "front") was set up as a eugenics trust with "the expressed mission of creating a world-wide race-based system and funded Adolf Hitler."


I tried keeping a bath in my budgies' cage. In a shallow plastic box filled with water, I left some of their favorite leaves. But they do not sit or splash in it. They only either drink water from it or eat leaves, standing on its edges. How do I make them go inside the water?
We have 2 budgies that are at least 10 years old and they have never had a bath either ..They are outside in an aviary so probably have a shower occasionally !!!

I have a few Raspberry Pi computers all doing different things around my home. With the exception of my RetroPie, which I'll talk about in a different article, they were all configured and running as a headless system. So what exactly is a headless system?
A headless system is a computer that operates without a monitor, graphical user interface (GUI) or peripheral devices, such as keyboard and mouse.
I use an iMac and my TV has all HDMI ports in use making it a hassle to switch them around. This means I needed to configure and use my Raspberry Pi in a different manner.
We're going to take a look at installing and using Raspbian Linux on a Raspberry Pi without directly using a keyboard, mouse, and monitor. I am not a Windows user, so everything I'm going to demonstrate is using a Mac or Linux machine. A wild guess says that if you're messing around with a Raspberry Pi, you've already got one of these Unix type operating systems.
The goal here isn't to come up with a cool project idea. It is just to get up and rolling without a monitor. A classic use case is maybe you are creating network storage or doing something that will never need a monitor.
We're going to use Raspbian for this example, but this step should be consistent for any flavor of Linux that supports the Raspberry Pi. Head over to the official Raspberry Pi website and get the latest build. I'm going to be using Raspbian Jessie, but the Lite version might make sense as well.
After you've downloaded it you may end up with a zip, img, or tar.gz file. What you want is the img file, so if you have anything else, you probably need to extract it. My img file was downloaded to my desktop for reference in this guide.
It is very important that you recognize the correct drive in the list, otherwise you risk wiping the wrong drive. This is not something that can be undone.
Remember my Raspbian image is on my desktop. Change the if to wherever your image file is. Also change disk1 to the appropriate disk. This command is the same for both Mac and Linux. It took around thirty (30) minutes for the command to finish on my computer.
UPDATE 02/03/2017: As pointed out by some readers, the Raspberry Pi Foundation is disabling SSH by default in Raspbian as a security precaution. More information on the subject can be found here. To enable SSH, create a file called ssh and save it to the boot directory of the mounted drive before ejecting it from your computer. The file can be blank, and it has no extensions.
Assuming it finished and you didn't blow up your computer, eject the SD or micro SD card and plug it into your Raspberry Pi.
Now we need to know how to access the Raspberry Pi without using a monitor or television. This can be accomplished using your host Mac or Linux computer and the network.
Notice I used pi as the SSH username? This is the default username for Raspbian. When you've finally hit the right address, use password raspberry to complete the login.
I'm not a fan of network cables. It is 2016 and by now wireless internet is nearly as fast as wired. I'd rather my Raspberry Pi only use a power cable and nothing else. For reference, I'm using an Airlink 101 wireless USB dongle that I picked up on Amazon.
This will tell you all the available networks. We did this just to test that it is working because we probably already know the SSID of the network we want.
If you're unsure how to use VI, when you're at the bottom of the file press the o key on the keyboard, type the stuff in, then press esc followed by :wq which means write and quit. You don't have to use VI, you can use Nano if you want instead. Or technically you can use anything you want.
After a minute when you're sure it shut down, remove the ethernet cable and power the system back up. You should be good to go. Discover the Raspberry Pi on your network again using the previous step, but this time it will be through WiFi.
Congratulations, you set your Raspberry Pi to work without ever connecting it to a monitor. Now you can SSH to it and use command line Linux without issues.
You're now rocking a Raspberry Pi without a monitor! You installed Raspbian by flashing an SD card via a secondary computer and discovering the microcomputer over the network. By taking it a step further with WiFi, you now only need a single wire running from the device. With SSH you can create your own network storage or whatever else is in your imagination.
I'm personally using one of my headless units as an rsync server.
