Welcome to Year 5: Marsh Harriers!
The Year 5 Marsh Harrier's have made a great start to the new school year. We have been learning to develop as writers, advancing our Mathematics and immersing ourselves in Roman life.
We began the term with our Sparkling Start, a trip to Norwich Castle where we learned about the Roman invasion into Britain. We also learned about the inhabitants of Britain in East Anglia at the time, the Iceni tribe, and their leader, the mighty Boudicca.
Our reading and writing skills are developing, with a big focus on the power of language and rich description. We are using better vocabulary in our writing and learning to plan writing to develop more detail and engage the reader.
In Mathematics we have been developing our understanding of place value. We have now applied this to addition, subtraction and multiplication questions with a focus on good written methods.
We have written Roman and Iceni Odes, experimented with rap battles between the two sides and enjoyed an educational visit to Norwich Castle. We have also been studying Greek myths and the various Gods that Romans believed in.
We look forward to more exciting experiences and will keep you informed!
Learning about electricity and circuits early this term!

A late-night bus driver in British Columbia was fired after passengers on his route got rowdy.
Being a resort town, Whistler, B.C., operates under a social contract that encourages late-night partying and provides safe, after-hours passage home. This usually makes bus drivers the front-line caretakers of rambunctious passengers, often colloquially referred to as a "zoo" by transit employees.
Tim Welsman was one of the drivers for Whistler Transit assigned to a late-night route in November 2014. At one stop, one passenger sought to distract Welsman as others, many of whom were inebriated, boarded without paying. A short time later, the culprit exited the bus and his friends began to swing and hang from the hand rails.

Registrations without entry fee or with incomplete address or personal information are not accepted.
It's possible to register at the Treviso Marathon stands located in various sports events or at our offices, at the following address: via Martiri delle Foibe 18/B – Z.I. Scomigo – 31015 Conegliano (TV).
Opening from Monday to Friday, from 08:30 to 12:00 and from 14:30 to 17:00.


Last Tuesday, July 31, at Tully Library, our Early Head Start (EHS) Department invited parents to bring their children out for free vision and dental screenings.
Four representatives from Healthier Kids Foundation, an organization that works to ensure that children have the education and resources to live healthy lives, came out to provide the screenings.
Mark Gomez, a Program Manager at the Healthier Kids Foundation, oversees the screening services. The nonprofit has been around for several years, and Gomez has been a part of the team for two of those years.
"I enjoy going out into low-income communities and offering our services," said Gomez. "Our aim is to make sure kids are healthy."
Healthier Kids Foundation has a screening team of six individuals, along with three interns. Ten case managers also offer support and guidance.
"The one thing that makes us different is we not only do screenings, we do follow up case management. So those children who we detect issues from our screenings get handed over to our case managers," said Gomez. "They call parents, go over the results with them, and navigate them through the health care system. We take them step by step on what they need to do to get care for their children."
EHS Family Services Supervisor Lynette Tia was pleased with the event.
"It was a really good turnout," said Tia. "Our goal was to have at least 12 children attend, but we had 27. They loved it...The parents were so happy about getting free screenings."

What is an analog car?
Analog is the opposite of digital. Like vinyl records and mechanical watches, an analog device doesn't need to break things down into a series of zeros and ones in order to function.
The term "analog car" is in danger of becoming a cliché, hitting automotive editors' no-go lists of over-used terms before, oddly enough, it's even definitively determined what one is. It seems the least we can do is attempt to define what analog car means before we reflexively banish the term. This exercise is of course, totally non-scientific and brutally subjective, so feel free to disagree.
Like the term "Survivor®" (which is incidentally a trademark of the Bloomington Gold organization), there seems to be a fair amount of confusion around the term. Just as an old car isn't a survivor simply because it hasn't been crushed, neither is every tactile, minimalist and responsive car an analog car merely by virtue of "feeling" old school. A 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C, for example is lightweight and delightful to drive, but it isn't an analog car by any stretch.
Analog cars are mechanically honest, which a 4C is not. As much as I love the car, it's a modern, digital car playing a carbon fiber card trick. It's equipped with a sophisticated dual-clutch, automatic transmission that apes a real manual transmission's feel (complete with automated downshift blips). Additionally, a raucous exhaust system, which tries its best to mimic a non-catalyzed, 1960s ANSA system (exhausts originally manufactured in Italy), complete with copious popping on the overrun, adds to the ruse. To a cynic, or a true analog car aficionado, the exhaust note is reminiscent of Inigo Montoya's (Mandy Patinkin) affected accent in The Princess Bride.
There's a directness requirement to an analog car, ruling out things like drive-by-wire throttles. For aviation buffs, it's the difference between a WWII-era North American P-51 fighter plane with real gauges featuring mechanical needles, and control surfaces moved by hydraulics linked directly to the yoke and rudder pedals, versus a hyper-automated, glass cockpit, fly-by-wire Airbus. Any drivers' aids beyond ABS are strictly out in an analog car.
Serious computerization is also a no-no. There are few post OBD I (On-Board Diagnostics first generation, the system that diagnoses and reports a vehicle's systems status) analog cars out there. Fuel injection isn't necessarily a deal breaker—early mechanical systems like the ones from Rochester, Bendix, Lucas, Bosch and Kugelfischer are as analog as a slide rule. Even simple, single-point, electronic Bosch D, K and L-Jetronic injection systems are still analog whereas a Bosch Motronic system that digitally controls fuel injection and ignition is not. Being able to actually wrench on the car yourself without special tools, a code-reader and a laptop is an essential part of analogness.
We also seem to reserve the term analog car (rightfully so), for the era when "digital cars" began appearing. Touting how analog a 1961 Corvette is, is like celebrating a 1950s McIntosh amplifier for having vacuum tubes – all amps did then.
Some late analog cars that we love? The original 1992 Dodge Viper might well be among the last of them. And while it may suffer from a few vintage-style affectations like the 4C – the side curtains and side-exhaust for example – the car lacked any drivers' aids (not even ABS) and initially, couldn't even be had with air conditioning.
The Porsche 911SC of 1978-83 is another late analog-era classic. Even its clutch was directly actuated via cable, not hydraulics. I suppose you could argue that the 3.2-liter Carrera of 1984-89 was a fairly analog car as well, but its more sophisticated Bosch Motronic digital engine management system and actual hydraulic clutch of the 1987-89 Getrag G50 gearbox cars began Porsche's digital slide. Later 911 generations like the 964, 993 and 996 quickly acquired the Porsche 959 supercar's intricacy.
The last analog Ferrari? Likely the 308 Quattrovalvole of 1983-85. No ABS, simple Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and easily wrenched on by owners. Moreover, major service could be performed without removing the engine. The 328 that followed, was like the 911 Carrera of Ferraris, along with the subsequent 348, began Ferrari's transition that wed the owner to the dealer or a nearly equally expensive indie shop.
Just as soulless throwaways like the compact disc and quartz watch led to an inevitable backlash and an affection for quainter, simpler technology like vinyl music and mechanical watches, the last of the true analog cars are finding a place with collectors, and values of late reflect that. Perhaps it's due to a realization that unlike vinyl records and watches that require winding, analog cars are never coming back.

In C++, you can declare an attribute or a method as "protected". Which means that it is private, but subclasses can still access them.
This makes just as much sense as saying you only get access to these attributes if you wear a funny yellow hat.
Encapsulation has the advantage that you can change the implementation of a class without changing the API. If you write a library, that means you don't break your user's code if you change some internals.
However your users can not only instantiate your classes, but they can also inherit from them. Which means they can put a funny yellow hat on. There is no restriction as to who can inherit from your classes. Which makes protected attributes part of the public interface.
So, if you want to change the implementation of a class, you can't change how a protected attribute or method works, and what data it stores. If you do, you break all subclasses. Which not only exist in your own source tree, but in your user's source tree too. If you think that changing the implementation will also change protected attributes or methods, make them private.
So if protected methods are essentially part of the public API anyway, why not declare them as public? Why require your user to wear a funny yellow hat (aka declare an inheritance relation) while using your class? There is no good reason.
When seasoned C++ programmers hear that, they often respond with "but if I declare my private data as private a subclass doesn't have access to it! How can it work properly?". The answer is simple: You must provide a sufficiently powerful public API. Your users will be grateful.
One more thing: people often come up with an analogy to the real world, and claim that your kids also have access to your house or flat. This analogy is broken, because in the real world the parents have to take actions to get children (or give somebody the same status as your children). In the programming world, every outsider can write a child class of your classes.

EYG Top 10 Famous Actors with Actor Parent(s)
Posted on December 4, 2019 by Doc
It is a new Top 10 list this week and it is an interesting twist. The Top 10 Famous Actors with Actor Parent(s). There were way more than I thought as I scrolled through the long list of possibilities at IMDB.
Oh, I am also going to list the parents' names and choose one film that I would consider my favorite of the oeuvre of that actor.
#10. Bill Skarsgård, (Stellan). It. Pennywise himself kicks off the list at number 10. His father is Stellan Skarsgård, who appeared int he MCU. Bill Skarsgård had huge shoes to fill when he took over for EYG Hall of Famer Tim Curry as Pennywise the Dancing Clown and he hit it out of the park. Even though It Chapter II was not quite the awesome film that I hoped it would be, Bill was not the issue. I am excited to see what else Bill has up his sleeve.
#9. Jamie Lee Curtis (Tony Curtis/Janet Leigh). Halloween. The original John Carpenter horror classic, Halloween saw the debut of the wonderful Jamie Lee Curtis. She has had a great career after this, and I almost considered Trading Places as the film that I liked best from her. Her return in the new version of Halloween was probably the best part of that film.
#8. Emma Thompson (Eric Thompson/Phyllida Law). Saving Mr. Banks. Emma Thompson as another actor whom I had some difficulty picking a favorite film because, no matter how the film may be, she is always great. I wound up picking Saving Mr. Banks, a Disney movie where she played the original creator of Mary Poppins, P.L. Travers.
#7. Sean Connery (Jason Connery). Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. He was James Bond. He was Indiana Jones' father. He was Alan Quartermaine (okay, that one was not so great). Sean Connery was always tremendous. I picked his role as Dr. Henry Jones Sr. because I love that movie so much. I considered The rock too, but Last Crusade just is one of my all time favorites.
#6. Josh Brolin (James Brolin) Avengers: Infinity War. Thanos himself. Josh Brolin has made me a fan of him with his performance as the Mad Titan. And of course, Avengers: Infinity war was Thanos's movie. He was legitimately the protagonist of that movie… and he won! Who would have ever guessed that they would allow that to end one of the largest in scale films the MCU had ever produced? Brolin was amazing in the film and should have been considered for more awards than he was.
#5. Jeff Bridges (Lloyd). The Big Lebowski. Jeff Bridges is one of the great actors of our time. He has been in so many unbelievable movies and he is always fantastic in all of them. I picked what was probably his most iconic role and one that I just saw for the first time this past year. The Big Lebowski was great and Jeff Bridges was a special performer.
#4. Kurt Russell. (Bing Russell). The Thing. Here was another actor that caused me to go to IMDB to look for exactly which of his long list of films would be my favorite. And while my favorite of his may be Guardians Vol 2, I chose The Thing because of how iconic it is. Another John Carpenter film that is just as brilliant now as it was back in 1982.
#3. Carrie Fisher. (Debbie Reynolds/Eddie Fisher) Star Wars. Our Princess. Leia herself is in at number three. Carrie Fisher had a tough life but we all loved her so much because of this movie and this movie trilogy. Leia developed over each one, whether it be her relationship with the scalawag, Han Solo or her learning of a long lost twin brother in Luke, Princess Leia never faltered. Another EYG Hall of Famer, Carrie Fisher's loss will definitely be felt in The Rise of Skywalker.
#2. Michael Douglas. (Kirk Douglas). War of the Roses. Michael Douglas is always great. I considered Ant Man in this role for his perfect portrayal of Hank Pym, but he is more of a secondary character there and in The War of the Roses, he plays a perfect jerk that both loves and hates his wife, Kathleen Turner. This film showed both Douglas's skill at drama, but also dark comedy. His timing was perfect.
#1. Robert Downey Jr. (Robert Downey Sr.). Avengers: Endgame. Thank you RDJ. Without you, the MCU may never have been successful. And then, you decided to tear our hearts out in Endgame with your final scene. Few characters can be said to be cast to perfection, but Tony Stark is someone who I cannot imagine anyone else ever playing. Always remember, Robert that we love you 3000.
Honorable mentions: There were a bunch of them. I almost put Kiefer Sutherland on the list from Stand By Me. I found out that the one and only Dr. Strange Benedict Cumberbatch fit into this category. Domhnall Gleeson is an actor who may see more of in the future. Matthew Broderick was perfect as Ferris Bueller (and Matt put him on his own list because of Ferris). Ben Stiller's Mister Furious had me considering him too. I was not sure if his father Jerry was a movie star or more of a TV star. I loved Laura Dern too, but I was not sure which film I would have chosen for her. Another star of the future is John David Washington, son of Denzel and star of the great BlackKKlansman.

Fifth Fatal Shark Attack In Western Australia Since September 2011
Posted on 16 July 2012 . Tags: Shark Mitigation System, Western Australia
Western Australia Minister for Fisheries Norman Moore
WA To Look At White Shark Protection Status
Fisheries Minister to seek Federal Govt research on white shark protection
WA dealing with an unprecedented spate of shark attack fatalities
Call for a review of the protection status for white sharks
Fisheries Minister Norman Moore today announced he will be writing to the Federal Government this week urgently seeking clarification about the white shark's status as a protected species, following the fifth fatal attack in Western Australia since September 2011.
"It is absolutely tragic that in just 10 months, five people have lost their lives to white sharks." Mr. Moore said.
"Each attack has resulted in severe or sustained injuries with no chance of survival for the victim."
The Minister said the State Government was spending $13.65 Million on a range of initiatives to deal with shark safety awareness, responses and research.
That funding package included $9.9 Million over five years for Surf Life Saving helicopter services in Perth and WA's South-West, $2.05 Million over five years for the Shark Response Unit and its projects and $1.7 Million to fund four major shark research projects.
"There is no documented level of fatal attacks attributed to white sharks in such a short time and geographic location, anywhere in the world, than what we have experienced in WA and further action is necessary to deal with it." Mr. Moore said.
"One critical piece of information missing is an accurate estimate of white shark populations in Australia. Through latest genetic work published, we know that white sharks occur in Australian waters in two sub-populations: East Coast and New Zealand; and South Australia and WA."
White sharks have been a protected species for more than a decade, since International Union for Conservation of Nature identified them as vulnerable. The Federal Government's White Shark Recovery Plan was released in 2002 and reviewed in 2008. That review found insufficient evidence to confirm an increase in species abundance.
Mr. Moore said the WA Government was urgently requesting the Federal Government share with WA what research data its agencies possessed that could be used for white shark population assessments and any outcomes of population assessments that might have been undertaken in the past by the Commonwealth.
"We need to know if there has been any update on the status of the white sharks and the sustainability level at which the Federal Government will lift protection. I would also like to know if the Commonwealth is considering revising any policy." Mr. Moore said.

Monday Movie Day Reviews
The White Ribbon (2009): From the extremely slow fade-in to the equally slow fade-out, The White Ribbon is a mystery. It does not resolve. It is uncomfortable and off-putting, at times forcing the viewer at an arm's distance. Yet it is also an absorbing narrative, filled with passion and sentiment, drawing the viewer into the midst of it. It is both objective and subjective, engaging and aloof, a masterful paradox of a film that will leave your questioning your own sense of judgment and faith.
Strange and disturbing events begin to escalate in a tiny German village in 1913. A wire stretched between two trees causes the village doctor's horse to trip, breaking the doctor's collar bone in the fall. Someone put the wire there. We don't know who did it. Other terrible things begin to happen. A woman falls through an attic floor and dies. A child goes missing and is found severely beaten. A barn is burned in the night.
The events are revealed with somewhat cold objectivity by the film's narrator, the village school teacher telling the facts years after the events occurred. He offers little speculation, choosing to narrator simply what happened without offering explanation as, he admits, he simply doesn't have any. His own story centers around an awkward romance of a 17-year-old nanny to the baron who employs most of the village. They are innocent enough, but something about the entire film's tone makes their own actions suspect. In fact, no one appears innocent in this village. Everyone has a secret, a temper, a growing arousal to violence that boils under the surface. Especially the children. They have a shrewd look in their eyes, a look that exudes a loss of innocence. These are the children who will grow up to be the adults in Hitler's Germany. What could possibly shape an entire culture to the point that it would allow itself to be ruled by such a man as Hitler? They are not as innocent as they appear.
Or maybe they are. Perhaps my own perceptions are not so objective. That is exactly filmmaker Michael Haneke's point. There are so many moments in the film where I had jumped to my own conclusions about what was occurring--or about to occur--in a particular scene, only to realize that my perceptions were entirely wrong. A coffin is shown pulled on a cart. Who is in it? We're never shown, but I have a hunch. Is my hunch correct? I don't know. Who is to say? Does Haneke even know? Does he even know who perpetrated the crimes?
Look at the boy below, wearing a white ribbon on his arm, placed by his father (the village pastor) to remind him to remain pure and sinless in his behavior. Is this boy a victim or a criminal? Innocent or guilty? How do you know? What is his story, his thoughts, his emotions, his wounds, his insecurities, his dreams? How do you know you're correct?
That is what makes this film so entirely unique--it invites the viewer to draw a number of their own conclusions which dramatically affect the entire perceived narrative. Thus, the "objective yet subjective" praise I lauded earlier.
On a deeper level, The White Ribbon forces to ask the question, "why do bad things happen in our world?" What is the proper emotional and logical response to disaster, especially when those bad things are completely out of our control? Who is responsible for tragedy in our world? Us? Chance? The devil? God? Sin? Or a strange combination of all these elements? What causes an entire nation to bring about a tragedy like the Holocaust? Why did massive earthquakes kill thousands in the past few weeks? Haneke suggests that we may have our perceptions and our answers that allow us to sleep at night, but we can never fully know. This is not to suggest that there is no objective truth, but that sometimes the truth is far too mysterious and paradoxical for our minds to fully comprehend. God is like that. This is why we needed the incarnation, God revealing the truth in a Person, for us to begin to understand.
Haneke shot this aesthetically beautiful film in color, then drained the color out of it to create a somber black-and-white tone. It is fitting, for this a film that is morally grey, a film where the answers lie just beyond our reach and we must simply come back to what matters most--faith.

Glad you liked it. The more and more I think about it, the more it creeps up on my top ten of 2009 list. I think it's at least in the top three now.
I had a long discussion about the movie with a board member of the Seattle International Film Festival. He got to attend the Q&A with Haneke last year. He said that every question about the story was answered by Haneke as "I don't know. Is that what you think?" =)
Joel Mayward March 2, 2010 at 6:32 PM
Cam, I'd put it in my top 5 of 2009, but not sure where. I think the film demands a second viewing. It sticks itself in your mind, and you find yourself thinking about it at random times throughout the day, wondering if you're putting the pieces together correctly.
I also appreciate the spiritual elements of the film, including the puritanical pastor of the village. Haneke raises a number of questions about faith and morality, especially about our perceptions about people around us and the darkness that resides in their hearts.
I'd also highly recommend Haneke's film "Cache" if you haven't seen it yet. It is equally troubling, frustrating, and wonderful.

The shrimp fried rice is always good but the chicken and asparagus was not a great choice. It wasn't even eaten.
Food was amazing like always.
Food is amazing like always!
We love Szechuan! Our order was ready to go, exactly right, and delicious.
The dumplings and egg roll were cold when they got here.
comforting and flavorful, awesome customer service too!!
All of our food was really good. Order was ready when I got there, it was hot and fresh.
Always great! My order was delivered within 30 minutes of ordering.
Easy process, fast delivery, food was hot and tasty.
Everything was delicious however I ordered online and asked for my food to be delivered at my lunchtime which was at 4pm and they delivered it at 1pm. I was devastated because I love my food hot and fresh and when my lunchtime came it was very cold. the driver offered to take it back, however I didn't want to inconvenience him.
Food was delicious. Delivery was quick! Will definitely order again!
Best Chinese food in Oklahoma City!!!
This is our favorite authentic Chinese restaurant. The duck with peppers is our number one dish we always order.
Delicious, high-quality, quick delivery, all around good service.
90% of the time they deliver SUPER fast and the food is just excellent. It's the freshest and most delicious Chinese food I've had in the city. I will be ordering from Szechuan exclusively.
Didn't bring one of the orders of white rice or dipping sauce for the dumplings. BUT, after calling they delivered the missing items AND the food is always amazing! Will always order from Szechuan!
fried rice was really good, chicken was a little dry, crab rangoon only tasted like cream cheese. Will order from here again.
The BM app does not have a "Fried Rice" option button for menu item C21. This caused significant confusion.
Szechuan Bistro is absolutely delicious. We love their dumplings and soups. They are very kind and their restaurant is clean and beautiful.
They are the freshest, best tasting Chinese food I've had in the city and their delivery is impeccably fast. Fast, fresh, and quality food is hard to find. They nail it!
I love their food but our order was missing the won tong soup. The rest was wonderful.
The food is good, it arrived hot, and quickly. But it arrived without flatware, not even chopsticks. I have no fork to eat this delicious food with. Awkward.
Shrimp fried rice was very good. Did not care for the fried chicken wings.They were hard and dry. I did not like the Jumbo Fried Shrimp because of the cornmeal coating. They also were a bit dry.
Did. Not receive rice.. food was good. Took over an HR.. I understand that.. but they are usually way quicker than the estimated time.. and I didn't receive the steamed.rice that should come with the general chk. It made me choose which type..
The layout was great, the smells coming from the place great. The process was seamless, in and out. The food was very very very good. The only problem that I found was to be my own. I'm used to requiring extra soy sauce. But it wasn't necessary here.
Super easy to order. Loved this website. Will definitely use them again!
Food is really great and location is pretty convenient. Was able to get it immediately when I got there with no waiting.
I did need to double check the order (a take-out)--and there was a mistake that needed to be corrected (a dish mix up). If I had ordered for delivery, there would have been no recourse. The vegetable dumplings were a rather vivid green and a bit flavorless. The other dishes, though, were quite tasty and attractive.
Food was great as always and ready when I arrived. Ordering and paying through the app was easy and convenient.


OK, this is kind of a silly question but can someone tell me how you type a horse's name and it links it straight to the horse instead of posting the entire link?
There is a button you can press in the options bar above where you are typing your responses. It is in the middle-leftish area and looks like chain links. You give it the link and type in what you want the words to say and it will format it for you.

Crew Dragon docking gives space station its first long-term crew of seven

SpaceX's Crew Dragon Resilience spacecraft glided to a smooth automated docking Monday night at the International Space Station, delivering four astronauts to join the three-person crew already on-board, boosting the size of the lab's long-duration crew to seven for the first time.
The space station has typically been staffed with six long-duration crew members since 2009, expanding from two- and three-person crews during construction of the research outpost. A seven crew member increase the scientific output of the more than $100 billion research complex.
"We look forward to a significant amount of time on orbit, a significant number of months we'll be able to increase the amount of science, the amount of research, the amount of technology development we can do with the additional crew members," said Joel Montalbano, NASA's space station program manager.
NASA astronauts Mike Hopkins, Victor Glover, Shannon Walker, and Japanese astronaut Soichi Noguchi monitored the Crew Dragon's automated final approach to the space station Monday night. The commercial crew capsule — named "Resilience" by the astronauts — docked with the station's Harmony module on autopilot at 11:01 p.m. EST Monday (0401 GMT Tuesday), capping a 27-and-a-half hour flight to the space station after launch Sunday night from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
"SpaceX, this is Resilience, excellent job right down the center," Hopkins radioed SpaceX mission control in Hawthorne, California. "SpaceX and NASA, congratulations. This is a new era of operational flights to the International Space Station from the Florida coast."
The Crew Dragon flight — designated Crew-1 — is the first of at least six operational crew rotation missions to the space station contracted to SpaceX by NASA. In a two-day review last week before the launch of the Crew Dragon, the space agency formally certified the capsule, its Falcon 9 rocket, and ground systems for regular crew flights to the space station, punctuating a multibillion-dollar development and test program that lasted more than a decade.

A few hours later, Hopkins and his crewmates opened the Crew Dragon's forward hatch and floated into the space station's Harmony module. Space station flight engineer Kate Rubins, Russian commander Sergey Ryzhikov, and cosmonaut Sergey Kud-Sverchkov greeted the Dragon crew.
The seven astronauts and cosmonauts make up the space station's Expedition 64 crew, and they will live and work on the research outpost until April, when they will prepare to return to Earth after a fresh crew arrives.
Seven-person crews will be the norm through the rest of the space station's lifetime. The life support system on the research lab has been capable of accommodating seven crew members for years, but the station's crew size was limited by the number of seats available on Russian Soyuz spacecraft.
From the retirement of the space shuttle in 2011 until this year, the Soyuz was the only vehicle capable of ferrying crews to and from the space station. Each Soyuz has three seats, and the Russian segment of the space station typically had two Soyuz capsules docked at a time.
With SpaceX's Crew Dragon spacecraft now providing crew transportation services — and Boeing's Starliner expected to be ready for astronaut flights next year — Russia's space agency has cut the number of Soyuz crew launches from four to two per year.
NASA paid Russia for Soyuz seats while there was no U.S. spacecraft available to launch and land with astronauts. With the Crew Dragon's development complete, and the Starliner nearing readiness for crew missions, NASA is ending its purchases of Soyuz seats.
NASA is working on an intergovernmental agreement with Russia to continue flying U.S. and international astronauts on Soyuz flights in exchange for arranging seats for Russian cosmonauts on Crew Dragon and Starliner missions to the space station.
The Starliner and Crew Dragon spaceships are designed to launch and land with four astronauts. Combined with a three-person Soyuz crew, that allows the space station's crew complement to go from six to seven.
A big benefit of the added crew member will be to increase the space station's capacity for scientific research.

The space station's U.S. segment, which includes contributions from Europe, Japan, and Canada, now has five crew members with the arrival of the Crew Dragon Resilience mission. There are currently two Russian cosmonauts on the station, but Russia plans to have three cosmonauts flying on the complex again next year, bringing the long-term mix of crew members to three in the Russian segment and four in the U.S. segment, including astronauts from the other international partners.
"One of the cool things about having the Commercial Crew Program is we're able to double the amount of crew-tended science and research and technology development we do on-board the International Space Station," Montalbano said. "With three (U.S. segment) crew members, we were averaging about 35 hours a week of crew-tended science research. With a fourth crew member, that person's time — the equivalent time — is dedicated to science and utilization and research.
"So we'll be able to do 70 hours with the 4 crew members," Montalbano said. "That kind of sets the standard for us as … we continue to develop the International Space Station, continue to use, and allows us to do not only the science and research we have, but technology demonstration that will help us with the Artemis program."
The Artemis program is NASA's program to return astronauts to the moon's surface, build a small space station in lunar orbit, and establish a continuous human presence at the moon.
"The amount of research that we can get done, and the things that we can get done with just one or two more people is more than just one or two more people's worth of science," Walker said.
With five astronauts living and working in the U.S. section of the space station, there might be challenges in scheduling the crew's daily activities. For example, teams will have to ensure all the astronauts have time each day to use the station's exercise equipment, Walker said.
"There's the comm (communications), the video loops, all of those feeds," Hopkins said in a pre-flight press conference. "When we're doing experiments and things like that, a lot of the investigators want to be able to see what we're doing real-time, and now all of a sudden potentially you could have five different people working on five different experiments on the International Space Station. So do we have the resources that enable that? I think that is certainly going to bring some challenges with it."
The U.S. segment also has four bunks, and a new sleeping station may not arrive at the outpost until after the Crew-1 astronauts depart next year. Hopkins plans to sleep inside the Crew Dragon Resilience spacecraft.
"I think there's a tradition that oftentimes in the shuttle days, the commander usually slept in the cockpit," Hopkins said. "So, at least for me, it just felt right that was where I needed to be. If any of us were going to sleep there, I felt like it should have been me."
The astronauts have a busy schedule ahead of them, with numerous scientific experiments, arrivals and departures of U.S. and Russian cargo freighters, and maintenance tasks.
Hopkins, Glover, Noguchi, and Rubins plan to perform a series of spacewalks early next year to ready a European science platform for service outside the space station's Columbus module. The spacewalk tasks also include an upgrade to a communications system associated with the European Columbus module, and some work on Japan's robotic arm.
Other items on the spacewalking checklist next year include preparations for new solar arrays to be installed outside the space station, according to Kenny Todd, NASA's deputy space station program manager.
Ryzhikov and Kud-Sverchkov are also gearing up for a spacewalk outside the Russian segment of the space station Wednesday.
While Hopkins and his crewmates are full-fledged members of the space station's Expedition 64 crew, their mission also includes some checkout objectives on the Crew Dragon spacecraft.
The Crew-1 mission is the first time four astronauts have flown on a Crew Dragon spacecraft — and the first time a four-person crew have been inside any capsule in orbit. Past space missions flying on crew capsules have carried no more than three astronauts, while NASA's space shuttle accommodated as many as eight astronauts.
Hopkins and his crewmates will fly nearly three times longer than astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken did on their Crew Dragon test flight earlier this year, pushing the capsule close to its 210-day maximum mission duration.
"Bob and Doug's mission was the developmental test mission," Glover said in a pre-flight press conference, referring to Crew Dragon's Demo-2 mission. "As soon as we hit Day 64, that's going to be the first time that a Crew Dragon at the space station his hit that milestone, and every day after that will be new territory."
"In general, I think it's more of an operational checkout than development testing," Hopkins said.
The start of SpaceX's operational crew rotation flights signals a new era in commercial spaceflight. NASA and private sector officials hope it will ultimately lead to more access to low Earth orbit for regular people, commercial space stations and habitats, and a growing space economy.
Paying passengers will initially have to be wealthy or well-funded, with a Crew Dragon seat priced at around $55 million.
"The big milestone here is we are now moving from development and test and into operational flights," said NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine.
NASA has spent $6 billion over the last decade helping companies develop new commercial human-rated spacecraft. In 2014, the space agency selected SpaceX and Boeing as partners to complete development of the Crew Dragon and Starliner crew capsules.
SpaceX has signed agreements with NASA valued at more than $3.1 billion to cover design, testing, and six operational flights of the Crew Dragon spacecraft.
Hopkins, 51, is a native of Missouri and a colonel in the U.S. Air Force. He served as a flight test engineer before his selection as a NASA astronaut in 2009, then completed a 166-day expedition on the space station in 2013 and 2014. NASA named him to command the first operational Crew Dragon mission in 2018.
Glover is the mission's rookie, and he is set to become the first Black astronaut to live and work on the space station for a long-duration expedition. The 44-year-old U.S. Navy test pilot was born and raised in Southern California, graduated with a bachelor's degree in engineering from Cal Poly, then flew F/A-18 fighter jets before joining NASA's astronaut corps in 2013.
Shannon Walker was born in Houston and earned a bachelor's degree, master's degree, and a PhD in space physics from Rice University. Walker, 55, was a flight controller and integration engineer on the space shuttle and space station before NASA selected her as an astronaut in 2004. She logged 163 days in orbit on the space station in 2010.
Noguchi, 55, is the most experienced astronaut on the Dragon crew. With Sunday night's launch, Noguchi became the third person to blast off from Earth and fly into orbit on three different types of spacecraft, joining a small club with legendary NASA astronauts Wally Schirra and John Young.
He previously flew on a space shuttle mission and launched on a Russian Soyuz rocket to the space station. The Crew-1 mission is Noguchi's third spaceflight.
The next Crew Dragon mission is tentatively scheduled to launch March 30 with an all-veteran crew led by NASA commander Shane Kimbrough, pilot Megan McArthur, Japanese astronaut Akihiko Hoshide, and European Space Agency astronaut Thomas Pesquet. They will ride the same Crew Dragon Endeavour capsule that Hurley and Behnken flew earlier this year.
A fresh three-man team of Russian cosmonauts will launch around April 10 to replace Rubins, Ryzhikov, and Kud-Sverchkov, who are slated to land in their Soyuz capsule in mid-April. Then Hopkins and his crewmates will leave the complex and head splashdown in the Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Mexico some time around May 1.

Saudi Arabia declares all atheists are terrorists in new law to crack down on political dissidents
(http://www.independent.co.uk/)
Saudi Arabia has introduced a series of new laws which define atheists as terrorists, according to a report from Human Rights Watch.
In a string of royal decrees and an overarching new piece of legislation to deal with terrorism generally, the Saudi King Abdullah has clamped down on all forms of political dissent and protests that could "harm public order".
The new laws have largely been brought in to combat the growing number of Saudis travelling to take part in the civil war in Syria, who have previously returned with newfound training and ideas about overthrowing the monarchy.
To that end, King Abdullah issued Royal Decree 44, which criminalises "participating in hostilities outside the kingdom" with prison sentences of between three and 20 years, Human Rights Watch said.
Yet last month further regulations were issued by the Saudi interior ministry, identifying a broad list of groups which the government considers to be terrorist organisations – including the Muslim Brotherhood.
Article one of the new provisions defines terrorism as "calling for atheist thought in any form, or calling into question the fundamentals of the Islamic religion on which this country is based".
Joe Stork, deputy Middle East and North Africa director of Human Rights Watch, said: "Saudi authorities have never tolerated criticism of their policies, but these recent laws and regulations turn almost any critical expression or independent association into crimes of terrorism.
"These regulations dash any hope that King Abdullah intends to open a space for peaceful dissent or independent groups," Mr Stork said.
Human Rights Watch said the new regulations were also a setback to campaigns for the protection and release of a number of prominent human rights activists currently jailed in Saudi Arabia. It said Waleed Abu al-Khair and Mikhlif al-Shammari recently lost appeals and will soon begin three-month and five-year respective sentences for criticizing Saudi authorities.
The organisation said the new "terrorism" provisions contain language that prosecutors and judges are already using to prosecute and convict independent activists and peaceful dissidents.

Throughout my childhood, watching robots smashing each other up was pretty cool. Playing games like Zone of the Enders and Front Mission made it even cooler, and I never really got bored seeing a giant mech standing majestically in the dust of a destroyed city. So I was quite excited to play Override Mech City Brawl and, as much as multiplayer isn't really my thing these days, the prospect of punching a strangers robot through a skyscraper would have warmed my little 14-year-old heart. Unfortunately, I don't think that I didn't enjoy this game simply because I'm now 31.
Sure, smashing up a city (a city that you're actually trying to protect, at least in the story mode) is pretty fun, at least to begin with. It's initially a blast to kick giant monsters flying down a street, taking out more buildings in 2 seconds than Premier Inn lobbies by an angry Liverpool builder in a week. But it quickly wears thin for multiple reasons. It's repetitive, quite awkward to control and really really easy. Yes, the controls make it a bit of a bind, but given that you'd have to be playing the game with your tongue to die, the controls seem to be the only challenge the game actually possesses.
To be fair, the games story mode is built to be more of a tutorial for the game than anything else. Developers The Balance have positioned the game more as a party brawler and indicated that playing the game with other players would be more fun. So if you want a good single player giant robot title, this game isn't for you.
The story is over and done within a few short hours, and it's mostly text-based format of characters chatting back and forth has nothing substantial to say. You'll flit from country to country across the globe, dealing with monsters as they pop up to terrorise the cities of the world. Every so often you'll have a boss fight to deal with, but none of it ever felt challenging. It almost feels pointless to block attacks, as monsters do such insignificant damage it barely shows as a blip on your health metre before you dash away and your health recovers. I didn't die once during the story campaign, even on levels that the game indicated were 'very hard'.
Your robots limbs are each mapped to a different button. For example, slapping the right trigger button will throw out a right-kick, while a punch of the right shoulder button will throw out a right-punch. The challenge is to combine them together to deal massive damage. Unfortunately, you can only get a few hits in before your overheat metre maxes out and you can't do much else other than be on the end of a slap-down from a grotesque monsters limb. Both movement and combat feels slow and its often hard to target properly, sending you careening into a building rather than the giant monster directly in front of you. You'll eventually build up enough charge to unleash a special attack, but I often found that I'd killed the majority of the monsters before I got to that point.
From time to time a melee weapon will slam down on the battlefield from above. These range from quarterstaffs to giant frying pans, lending some variety to the battle, but I always felt that my kicks and punches did the most damage. Between missions you can add weapons to slots in the armoury, that will then pop-up during your next battle. You'll also get research points that you can use to improve your mechs stats, plus mods that will augment one of your abilities, such as giving you slightly better health regeneration.
While there are quite a few locations in the world, each with their own unique landscapes particular to that country, none of them feels awfully different, aside from the underground section in Egypt. The arenas are far too small, with most of the cities cut off with an impenetrable glowing blue barrier. As battles rage on, most of the city will become little more than a pile of dust. The game doesn't have you try and save humans or do anything other than combat the familiar monsters that assaulted you in the last location you visited. Even destroying the city means nothing, as it will have been rebuilt by the time the story makes you return to that location for the third time.
Visually, the game looks nice enough. The graphics aren't overly impressive, but they're fine. Monsters come in waves, but usually, you're only facing off against two or three. This makes it all the more baffling that I suffered occasional lag and frame rate drops, even to the point where my mech took a second to actually react.
So, while you won't find an awful lot of meat in the single player mode after a few hours of play, you can tell that the main focus was on the multiplayer mode and the variety of mechs available. There's a sizeable roster, and while they each play a little differently, it's not significant enough to make it much more fun. You can also customise your mech to your heart's content, using unlocks you gained in the games single player mode.
In multiplayer, you can fight against other players mechs in options such as one-on-ones and team battles. There's also the cool idea of multiple players controlling a single mech, with each player controlling a separate limb. This would be a fantastic way of seeing if you and your friends can actually work together, but sadly I never got to experience it. In fact, I never got to experience a single multiplayer game at all as every time I tried there were no other players available to fight against. I even held off publishing this review for a couple of weeks in order to see if I could have at least a few multiplayer matches, but I had no luck. Given the game has only been out for a month or so; having no multiplayer population, at least on PS4, is pretty much signing its death warrant on the console.
Sadly, Override: Mech City Brawl is no Zone of the Enders and it quickly wears thin. It might have some chops as a multiplayer brawler, which is what the developer is clearly intending it to be, but it's no good being a multiplayer game if you can't find any players actually playing it. It's just not varied or complex enough to be fun for more than a short while.
Thanks to Modus Games for supplying us with a review copy. Override: Mech City Brawl is available on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. We reviewed the PS4 version.

Somaterapia o SOMA es una terapia corporal y en grupo creada en Brasil por el escritor y terapeuta Roberto Freire. Está basada en la teoría de Wilhelm Reich, discípulo disidente de Freud y en el anarquismo. La Soma entiende el conflicto neurótico —que genera conflictos y dependencias— a partir de las relaciones de poder presentes en la sociedad. Así, el anarquismo con ética filosófica busca permear la metodología de la Soma, permitiendo la identificación del autoritarismo en las relaciones interpersonales.
Además de la teoría reichiana, la Soma también adopta el aquí-y-ahora de la terapia Gestalt y los descubrimientos sobre la pragmática de la comunicación humana presente en los estudios de antipsiquiatría.

El proceso terapéutico dura en torno de un año y solo realiza sesiones de terapia compuestas de ejercicios corporales y dinámicas de grupo autogestionarias, buscando identificar los mecanismos de poder presentes en las relaciones sociales contraídas entre los miembros del grupo.

Es practicada en Brasil y en Europa por el Colectivo Anarquista Brancaleone, que reúne a los somaterapeutas en actividad y en formación, bajo la supervisión de Roberto Freire.

Somaterapia en la práctica

Colectivo Brancaleone
Se trata de un Colectivo Libertario creado en 1990, formado por los somaterapeutas. Su principal función es la de desarrollar y practicar la Somaterapia, privilegiando el trabajo en autogestión y la ética libertaria. En todos estos años de trabajo autogestionado, el Brancaleone siempre procuró reafirmar su postura radicalmente anarquista, en lo que actualmente se define como anarquismo somático, donde el placer se vuelve referencial ético en la construcción de la autonomía del individuo. Las actividades del Colectivo Brancaleone, además de los grupos de Soma se extienden también a la publicación de libros, cursos, conferencias entre otros. En 2006 iniciaron un curso de "Introducción a la Somaterapia" en la UERJ, en Río de Janeiro, llevando a la Soma a las aulas de esta institución.

Actualmente está compuesto por los somaterapeutas João da Mata, Jorge Goia y Vera Schroeder, y por los ayudantes Stéfanis Caiaffo y Marcelo Leal, todos ellos fueron formados bajo la supervisión del psiquiatra Roberto Freire.

Book Release Party 5/17/13
The Fallen Angels Book Club has only two requirements: the members must love books and have a white-collar criminal record. Hollis Morgan fits the bill. Left holding the bag in an insurance fraud scheme concocted by her now ex-husband, she served her time and is trying to rebuild her life. All she wants is for the court to pardon her conviction so she can return to law school.
After one of her fellow members is murdered in a scenario straight out of a club selection, Hollis is once again the subject of police scrutiny. Refusing to get stuck with another bad rap, she sets out to investigate her fellow club members. Is one of them really blackmailing the others? As a second member dies in yet another book-inspired murder, Hollis realizes that time is running out. Everything rides on her finding the killer--not just her career aspirations. She must identify the killer before she herself becomes the next victim. Everyone is convinced she knows more than she lets on. But what is it, exactly, that is she supposed to know?
The Fallen Angels Book Club is the first book in an exciting new mystery series featuring amateur sleuth Hollis Morgan.

Proud to be a Native San Franciscan
The past six months (or should I say years living in Dogpatch District) I've been blessed with amazing experiences I had not expected. As some of you know me well enough, I stay active in Dogpatch community since I moved here almost 14 years ago. I believe the universe wanted me to live on this side of town in San Francisco before anything was really here. I thought (and still do) volunteering every year for almost 13 years, is something great to do for the community and the neighborhood I live in. I've seen it grow and grow, almost like a child like where you want to protect it, defend it and let it grow to something so wonderful. Really, it's not me, it's the community that I fed off of over the years because of their passion, drive and determination in protecting this area - Dogpatch Historic District. Summer 2009, I was elected to be on board of Dogpatch Neighborhood Association as Member Coordinator/Corresponding Secretary. Re-elected last October 2015 f
Happy Spring Season 2015!
Poem: Eve of Spring Season in San Francisco Sunshine... ...birds happily chirp or I'd say they sing and fly around excitingly. The smell of fresh air, pretty flowers bloom and sun shinning bright in neighborhood. Runners out running along the embarcadero as I watch them from the Muni T line on my way to work. I continue to believe and have hope. I am constantly reminded to be inspired and to inspire. Stay proud of who YOU are. ~vanessa "To be interested in the changing seasons is . . . a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring." — George Santayana

FIELD SPACE IS LIMITED. Players will be taken on a first come, first serve basis. Once our limit is reached we will not accept any more registrations.
The Darien Soccer House program focuses on individual player development and the enjoyment of the game of soccer – not necessarily winning games. We believe it is important for our players, parents and coaches to embrace this philosophy. Our small-sided, continuous play model that maximizes touches on the ball has been widely copied throughout the country. Our goal is to make it a positive first experience with soccer and organized sports.
Practice- teams practice for an hour once a week after school. (See Game/Practice Times for practice days). Professional coaches instruct our players during the week.
Games- scheduled on Saturdays. Parents coach our teams. Please see our Parent Coaches guide.
4) Throw-ins and Hand Balls- If needed, Referees will instruct players on throw-ins and blow whistle on hand balls. This may vary depending on the age level or the point in the season that the match is played. Referees will try to strike a balance between taking advantage of a teachable moment, and not unduly interrupting the flow of the game.
Goals- Have fun. All players should be comfortable with the proper techniques of passing and kicking. Strength will come later. By the end of the season players should be communicating on the field more. Players should be dribbling with head up looking for passing and shooting opportunities. Teams should be able to put several passes together. There should be less throw-in mistakes.
