One of the chief reasons I moved from the NYC area to San Diego was a change of commute.
After spending 1/2 my career on the PATH, various busses, subways or LIRR, I'll take the comfort of my car over those options 95 percent of the time.
Yeah, NJ Transit make an 18th century stagecoach ride across the Sahara Desert seem like a walk (ride?) in the park….
When I grew up, my old man cursed the Long Island Rail Road every day he was forced to take it. So did everyone else.
Today I take NJ Transit occasionally to the airport or a client. That is just enough to make me think the LIRR is a paragon of on-time trains and caring, involved customer service.


and Kadri Barclay, Head of Marketing at LIFT99.
As a serial startup founder myself, my view on investing is different from what the average investor seeks. Money is just a commodity. Investors' advice, connections, know-how, and dedication are much more valuable to a startup than money.
Dashbird is still in very early stage. They have a long road ahead. But I strongly believe it's a road of success. That's why LIFT99 is backing up Dashbird and lending its connections and resources to help Dashbird take flight.
What exactly led to this decision, you may ask?
It all starts with the team, especially the founders. I have no doubt that Dashbird has assembled a winning combo with Taavi, Mikk and Annika.
I have known Dashbird's CEO Taavi for more than two years. In fact, I first wanted to hire him myself - he is a wicked engineer. But Taavi obviously had other plans.
When I met the other two founders, I was even more amazed. Dashbird's CTO Mikk is the first programmer to leave Starship Technologies. The fact that Starship was his most recent home base, is impressive on its own - Ahti Heinla has built a team of rock stars over there, taking over the world with their rolling robots.
Lastly, Annika - before Dashbird, she had been leading Toggl's marketing efforts and later moved to be the CEO of Teamweek. Under her lead, Teamweek's revenue grew by 100% in 2017. She has a proven track record of scaling and growing companies.
Most importantly, the founders have known each other for six years. They know their rough edges, as well as individual strengths. There are no hidden cards. During my first dinner with Dashbird, I was intrigued by the social chemistry of this founding trio.
So taking into account the social aspect as well as the competency, we have a match made in heaven - two highly technical co-founders and someone who knows everything about the market, are exactly what an ambitious startup needs.
After following their progress for half a year, I was very surprised by how fast they were making progress. Each and every week took them leaps ahead from where they had been the last time we met. Most importantly, whatever connections and advice I was putting on the table, they were keen to pick up, consider, and act upon.
This drive to learn and move, with the gas hit to the floor, is simply crucial for any startup founder. And before you ask - yes, they've been tracking all KPI's weekly (another thing that many startups fail to do in the craze of speed and constant change).
After they joined the LIFT99 community, I've had the privilege to witness their workstyle. Their excitement about their startup is obvious - the founders often finish their "days" at 2 AM. It reminds me of Pipedrive's early days when I woke up in middle of the night, just to check how many new signups we have.
It also emphasizes the unique culture of LIFT99 - it's a place where founders help other founders. It's been very motivating to witness how they've been helping others since the day they joined LIFT99, just as I have been helping them. Dashbird's founders have got the X-factor, characteristic of the entire LIFT99 community.
I have to admit that my tech stack skills are very low. But I'm very good at finding the right person for any particular question. So, to understand the serverless and dev tool market, I asked advice from my old friend, the most talented engineer I've ever met, Pipedrive's co-founder Martin Tajur. He took a deep dive with me into Dashbird's business model.
What did Martin conclude? Let's just say that a few days after our talk he got back to me saying he wants to invest in it himself. The serverless market is huge and it's growing very fast. Which means that investing in brilliant solutions, with strong teams behind them, is a smart move!
Let's come back to Earth for a moment. However excited anybody is about any idea or a team, in the end, every startup has less than 10% chance of survival. Big players are dominating the serverless market. The odds are what they are.
At the moment, Dashbird is only monitoring the AWS Lambda (Amazon Web Services). Our numerous talks brought up question like - what happens if Amazon develops a similar tool? Or anybody else?
Only time will tell for sure, but what I have witnessed is that the Dashbird founders are very sober about the possible risks. It gives me confidence to know that their vision of where they want to head is very clear. Now it's only a matter of making smart moves, fast.
So why exactly am I on this journey with Dashbird? As I said, money is just a commodity. It's needed to get things moving, but at the end of the day, it does not bring home the win.
Personally, the really important question was - can I have a real impact on the future of this determined startup? Are LIFT99 and my own network and know-how relevant for Dashbrid so they could move to the next level, as fast as possible, and keep on scaling?
After skimming through my network in Silicon Valley, New York, London and Berlin, I found 30+ strong influencers to introduce them to. Each and every one of those connections could grow into a key player laying the foundation for Dashbird's future. Mikk, Taavi and Annika are holding all the potential in their hands but at the moment, the initial feedback from these matches has been very exciting.
To make the final call, I had just one question left to ask myself - if I didn't already have my own startup, would I join Dashbird? Well, yes! Yes, I would.
Whatever the financial outcome, helping the people behind Dashbird succeed, and spending time with these inspiring founders, who are dreaming of making a difference in this world, is already enough of a win for me and the LIFT99 community.
We expect great things from you, Dashbird!

The 14th National IARNA Conference took place on the 1st of October, in the beautiful 4 star Mullingar Park Hotel in County Westmeath. The theme for the Conference was "Sharing Successful Practices". IARNA invited nurses to present on their posters in a session of the same name. This is to encourage nurses to celebrate and share successful, evidence-based changes to practice that have had a positive impact on their patients and on care delivery in Anaesthetic and Recovery Room Nursing.
In a change from last year, booking moved to online only. This was to avoid disappointment as the Conference grows, and to facilitate an online database of members so that we can share new developments with all attendees.
Despite a few teething problems this was a great success and the Conference was well attended. It is important to note that to facilitate timely certification and receipts, it is really important to make sure we have your own correct email address and to add info@iarna.ie as a contact to avoid mail going to spam.
The Conference poster is also available to download here! The poster can be pinned to a noticeboard or posted around your place of work and is a convenient way of notifying your work colleagues about the event.
Poster submissions are now closed, you can still check out the the guidelines here.


If you met Sam Pizzo today, there wouldn't be any doubt that he's a well-dressed man. As a Sales Consultant and Team Leader for Tom James, one of the oldest manufacturers of custom suits out there, it stands to reason that he's got to look good. When we sat down to talk about everything from style to life goals, we didn't expect to learn more about Sam's own personal style journey, but we sure are glad we did.
Sam Pizzo poses in front of a Chicago skyline. Photographed by Madeleine Hettich.
The top floor lounge of Sam's apartment building was a study in modern comfort. Large glass windows looked out over Chicago's impressive skyline as natural light streamed over the contemporary seating arrangements and bar. Our voices echoed slightly as we chose our seats and sat down to talk.
Sam's blue pinstripe suit and light purple shirt complimented each other nicely, especially now that the bright surroundings highlighted the richness of their color. Little details like a patterned pocket square and nice watch made it clear that he really knew how to dress.
Whenever I meet people this put together I usually expect them to have possessed those style senses their entire lives. When a person looks like they've got it all figured out, the final image is so pristine that it's difficult to see the work that gets put into it. Everybody cultivates their taste as they get older, and it makes sense for people to learn style just like they learn everything else.
In the Beginning, There Was . . .
Photos of Sam Pizzo before he worked for Tom James. Photos provided by Sam himself.
To learn more about Sam's own style journey, we started by looking back on some of his older dressing habits.
Can you tell us anything about college age Sam? Did he dress well?
Wow, how did those choices come about?
It's kind of comforting to know that even those of us who look the most polished have made a few fashion missteps along the way. I for one may or may not have worn tie-dye tee-shirts and old sports shorts to class during my freshman and sophomore years. I may have even refused to buy new shoes until I had worn multiple holes in the pair I already owned.
This is all rumors and hearsay, of course, there's no photo evidence of such travesties ever occurring. I've made sure of it. I'm sure everybody reading this has at least one past fashion choice that makes them cringe a little. We all start off a little ignorant of fashion, and that's OK. What matters is that we learn as we mature, like Sam.
When you set out to start changing your style, it's good to find a place to start. Usually, this is where a style role model comes in. It's important to find someone whose way of dressing appeals to the person you want to be. It can be a character on a TV Show, a celebrity or even a friend. Here at GREY, we're looking at Sam, not only because he's on top of men's fashion, but also because he worked hard to get there.
When did you eventually change your mind about dressing?
Was your style immediately changed when you started working there or did it take time?
Well obviously your style has changed since then, what was that like? Did it happen all at once?
Now that you've reached your current point, what's it like to get dressed in the morning?
To be able to consciously create your personal image is a skill, and skills can be learned. We all start off shaky when it comes to style and fashion, but if you set out to develop your taste you can learn to dress in a way that lets people see you for who you know you are.
And the Moral of the Story is. . .
When all is said and done, not everyone grows up making amazing trendsetting style choices. I'd hazard a guess that nobody does (I certainly didn't). Style is a skill that anyone can learn if they take it seriously. Sam Pizzo is one of the best-dressed men in Chicago, and if he admits to a few faux-pas, then we can too. As long as you learn from past mistakes, then people like Sam can help you move forward.

Eventually, it became the Cadillac Series 6200 in 1959 and remained like that until it was renamed to Cadillac Calais for the 1965 model year. The Series 62 was also marketed as the Sixty-Two and the Series Sixty-Two. Excluding export sedans and chassis only, the Series 62 offered an all-time record of nine body styles.

Jetconnect's third Boeing 737-838 ZK-ZQC Katherine Mansfield entered service on Thursday 22-October-2009 as QF25 MEL-AKL.
Thursday 08-October-2009 saw ZK-OJE operating the NLK flight return to AKL due strong cross winds.
The airbus A320 routes, (Trans Tasman and Pacific Islands) which have been flown by Zeal320 Ltd have been operating under the NZ7XX/8XX codes a throw back to the Zeal/Freedom Air days/codes. Air New Zealand have now reverted back to the NZ1XX/2XX codes, inline with their other international codes.
Pacific Blue (Aust) have changed their flight codes from VBH0XX/1XX to VBH40XX/41XX, this change only applies to flights operated by VH registered aircraft and not ZK registered ones. Hence BNE-WLG-BNE is now DJ4068/4069 instead of DJ68/69, while CHC-BNE-CHC DJ83/84 remains unchanged.


Home How Roundup Works Why is Roundup effective?
Thanks to advanced weedkilling technology, honed over many years in the agricultural industry, Roundup is one of the effective weedkillers on earth – yet extremely safe, too, when used responsibly in accordance with the instructions.
Incorporating a smart systemic action, Roundup is absorbed through the leaves of a weed and carried down to its growing points. The only damage done is to the weed, as Roundup actually deactivates upon contact with soil and is then degraded into it by micro organisms. In other words, Roundup maximises the impact on the weed, at the same time as minimising the effect on the surrounding environment.
Roundup's ability to deactivate upon contact with soil means that, once it has dried on the targeted leaves, you can let the children and pets loose again in the areas where treatment has taken place.
Additionally, because it's absorbed immediately into the weed and degrades in the soil, Roundup allows you to go ahead with new plantings the very next day, if you wish.
The same combination of high efficiency and utmost care and concern for safety extends to the packaging and design of our products. For instance, the broad range of Roundup Ready to Use products, including Pump 'N Go and Pull & Spray, incorporates ingenious spray heads with child resistant nozzles and drip guards. Designed to spray downwards, they afford a greater level of accuracy when targeting individual weeds, even in areas where there are plenty of other flowers and plants.

Here is a very handsome and elgant solid gold watch by the fantastic watchmaking firm of Piaget.
Made in 18ct yellow gold, this watch weighs a very impressive 146.7 grams, and feels wonderful and solid on the wrist. Not only is the case and band 18ct yellow gold, but so is the dial - solid 18ct gold.
Fitted with a fully jewelled quartz Piaget movement, it is a "back-set" watch, meaning that there is no crown at the traditional 3 o'clock, rather the crown is one the reverse, making this aspect alone a great talking point.
Piaget make superb watches, and this is one Piaget Polo watch that will always be admired.
Measuring 21cm in length, this is one of the most elegant watches by Piaget that you will ever find.


This sculpture was found during an archeological dig in a the ruins of a Roman village, dated from the first century. The mystery of this unusual statue is that it is not congruent with Roman iconography, techniques or materials. The figure has an abstract human shape, with arms wrapping around the base and stretching to the face, with crude lines inscribed to roughly indicate fingers, of which there are only four. on each hand. Similar lines mark out the features of a basic face.
The fingers are oddly elongated and resemble flippers as much as they resemble hands. The head's unusual shape combined with the flapper-like hands and fingers, have caused some to speculate that the work is evidence of extraterrestrial visitors.
Some speculate that the sculpture itself is created by these visitors, an example of their own art. Others surmise that the item was created by a citizen of the village, who was given materials to create a portrait of these unusual visitors.


Tigne Point is located in Sliema, in one of Malta's most upscale areas, on a 30-acre coastal peninsula. Its location means that the views are spectacular. Just across the water lies Valletta, Malta's capital city, which is surrounded by bastions and houses a multitude of Baroque architecture. Tigne Point is a project that offers a variety of options. It comprises of around 400 residential units, leisure facilities, restaurants, boutiques and an open piazza. Just off this piazza is The Point, Malta's largest mall, hosting over 50 brands, including Debenhams, New Look, Nike and Aldo, and a large supermarket. The ultramodern business centre that is situated at the north side of Piazza Tigne is undergoing construction at the moment.

Helios Gómez-Rodríguez, né à Séville en 1905 et mort en 1956 à Barcelone, est un peintre et dessinateur libertaire espagnol.

Biographie
Promoteur, membre fondateur et premier président du Syndicat des Dessinateurs Professionnels de Barcelone, créé dès l'été 1936 pour défendre la république par l'affichisme militant, Helios Gómez est l'un des représentants les plus emblématiques du graphisme ibérique de la première moitié du . Il était artiste à la fois peintre et révolutionnaire, mais aussi communiste libertaire et poète.

Né à Séville d'une vieille famille gitane rurale et prolétaire, il gardera jusqu'au bout un fort sentiment identitaire gitan et andalou (les Roms sont appelés "Gitanos" en Espagne). C'est au cours des années 1920 et 1930 qu'il a formé sa conscience politique d'abord dans les milieux anarcho-syndicalistes et libertaires des deux grands foyers anarchistes de la péninsule ibérique, Séville et Barcelone, puis des avant-gardes européennes des capitales de l'exil, Paris, Bruxelles, Amsterdam, Berlin, Vienne, Moscou et Leningrad.

Adolescent, il avait fait son apprentissage technique et politique comme ouvrier peintre céramiste dans l'une des nombreuses usines sévillanes, tout en suivant des cours à l'École des Arts et Métiers de la ville, et comme militant de la Confederación Nacional del Trabajo, organisation syndicale fondée en  par les groupes et fédérations libertaires réunis en congrès à Séville. Dès lors, sa carrière de graphiste dans la presse et les organes de gauche à la fois contre la dictature de Primo de Rivera et en faveur de la justice sociale, puis contre le franquisme, constituera l'élément fondamental de son engagement.

Reconnu pour ses dessins politiques avant-gardistes en noir et blanc, il travaille, expose et publie ses œuvres à Madrid et en Catalogne où il s'est établi en 1926, puis sur les lieux de ses exils successifs, à la suite des multiples arrêts d'expulsion qui l'obligent à chercher refuge en France, en Belgique, en Hollande, en Allemagne ou en URSS.

Combattant sur les fronts artistique et militaire pendant la guerre civile espagnole, il est commissaire politique sur les fronts de Mallorca, Madrid et Andújar puis milicien à la culture dans la  division, columna Durruti et il aurait notamment recruté un bataillon de cavalerie gitan. En 1939 il doit se réfugier en France : c'est l'un du demi-million d'exilés de la Retirada. Il est interné dans les camps de concentration en France et en Algérie française où il est déporté. Fuyant les tortures du camp de Djelfa, il obtient un sauf-conduit pour rentrer en Espagne en  et il reprend son combat dans la clandestinité. Arrêté sans jugement ni condamnation, il est incarcéré huit ans à la prison Model de Barcelone et meurt peu après.

En 1950, il a peint des fresques en hommage aux prisonniers et à leur sainte patronne, qui est également celle de la ville : la Vierge de la Mercé, dans une cellule attenante aux cachots des condamnés à mort. La cellule servit d'oratoire et reçut le nom de "Capilla gitana" (Chapelle gitane) en raison du registre d'inspiration romani qui caractérise tous les personnages représentés. Cette œuvre-manifeste existe encore, bien que recouverte et donc en grande partie cachée par une couche de peinture décidée sous prétexte d'hygiène par l'administration pénitentiaire dans les années 1970-80. Elle peut encore être restaurée mais le bâtiment panoptique, symbole de la répression, bien qu'inscrit au patrimoine architectural de Barcelone, est menacé de démolition depuis le printemps de 2007. Cette disparition signifierait la perte à tout jamais de la Capilla gitana. C'est sous la chape de plomb des années franquistes et muselé par la censure qu'Helios Gómez a créé, dans la solitude de la réclusion, contre le silence et le mensonge, ce corpus demeuré ignoré jusqu'à sa découverte fin 2004.

L'Associació Cultural Helios Gómez déploie de grands efforts depuis des années pour populariser dans le monde entier l'œuvre si riche et multiforme de l'un des plus remarquables artistes du peuple rom. Son site  donne accès à une intéressante iconographie.

Graduates' exhibition interrogates what it means to be human
Feb 26, 2019 | 0
"Graduates", an exhibition by final year students from the Department of Fine Arts at the University of the Free State, recently opened at the university's Johannes Stegman Gallery. Precious Mamotingoe Lesupi reports on the pieces set to interrogate the broader concept of what it means to be human.
Final year students from the Department of Fine Arts showcased various artwork which depict their unique experiences of what it means to be human.
Dr Nadine Lake, lecturer in Gender Studies at the UFS, described pieces of the exhibition as ones which "remind us of the importance of rethinking familiar concepts". These include, among others, education, feminism and language. Graduates, according to Dr Lake, therefore assist us in taking a step beyond the usual frames of representation and recognition that we have failed to critique deeply in our search for "a more humane experience of everyday life".
Walking about, a couple of pieces stood out for me and spoke volumes to these various themes.
On feminism, Micaela Balie used floral metaphors to explore sexuality. Her artwork "Woman Flower" is comprised of mediums such as tea stains, pencil drawing and embossing to re-appropriate the floral metaphors in order to promote feminism. On her quest to "trying not to be too obvious" with her artwork, Balie used tea stains to comment on menstruation and make it pretty as it is socially seen as disgusting. As she comments on sexuality, she aims to inspire women to obtain acceptance of their sexuality through her artwork which has also helped her "explore her own sexuality".
"Can you heal by seeing someone mimicking a Sangoma's sacred dance?" is the main inspiration behind "Rea Dumela" an artwork by Nkatso Motaung. Motaung channeled her alter ego "Plastic Tshehlana" into her pursuit of spiritual healing in the gallery by observing and exploring a sacred dance. Motaung grew up in a family of Sangomas, with both her mom and sister being Sangomas. Her connection to the ritual dance stems from a young age and her goal is to take the spirituality that comes with it into the gallery space.
A comment on identity, language and culture was thoroughly represented in four artworks by Bontle Tau. She questions whether the French colonial culture she has been exposed to should become her own and explores theories of identity using self-portraits.
Tau, who has a "multicultural, multilingual identity" said that her reasons for specifically using French were that it is the most aesthetic Latin language with what she considers "the prettiest structure" and that she was exposed to the language in her undergraduate years of study. Sans identité (without identity) is one of her artworks that strives to illustrate an effort for authenticity in a newly found cultural identity that she feels is not supposed to be hers.
Teboho Mokhothu uses slavery as the main metaphor for the education system in "Liberation of mind", an artwork that comments on the current South African education system as well as the history of education since early colonialism. The furniture that forms part of the installation represents the yoke that was used to tie down slaves. The year-long project also includes a thought provoking metaphoric visual representation of the current education system. The piece stresses the inherent restrictions of the South African education system and the psychological oppression students face. The artwork also aims to "provide commentary on the Fees Must Fall movement".

Die Evangelisch-Lutherische Weihnachtskirche in Bethlehem gehört zur Evangelisch-Lutherischen Kirche in Jordanien und im Heiligen Land. Pastor der Kirche ist seit Juni 2017 Munther Isaac.

Geschichte

Ludwig Schneller initiierte ihren Bau und der Evangelische Kirchenbauverein ließ die Weihnachtskirche bauen. Architekt der Kirche war der deutsche Architekt August Orth. Der Bau begann 1886, finanziell unterstützt von Amerikanern deutscher Herkunft. Der Bau war 1891 vollendet, aber die Kirche konnte wegen einer fehlenden Genehmigung der Regierung in Istanbul, dem Sitz des Osmanischen Reiches ihre Arbeit nicht aufnehmen. 1893 besuchte Kaiserin Auguste Victoria Istanbul und erreichte, dass die notwendige Genehmigung erteilt wurde.

In ihrer Geschichte wurde die Weihnachtskirche mehrfach beschädigt. Im Sechstagekrieg wurde sie bombardiert, das Kirchendach wurde beschädigt. 2002 wurde sie wiederum durch Kriegshandlungen in Mitleidenschaft gezogen. Im Februar 2004 zerstörte ein Erdbeben die Befestigung des Turmkreuzes.

Baubeschreibung
Die Kirche ist ein Baudenkmal des deutschen Historismus.

Die Kirchenfenster sind mit Glasmalereien ausgestattet und mit Bibelzitaten in Deutsch beschriftet.

Q: Adding a different putExtra to an intent for each dynamically created button I'm creating buttons dynamically to a linear layout and after a button is clicked it goes to a new activity.  I want to pass along a string with information about which button was clicked with that activity as a putExtra. For some reason the intents that I add to the each buttons onClickListener get overwritten so it only sends the string of the last button and not the one that is clicked:
    LinearLayout l = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.allOptions);

    for(int i=0; i<currentOptions.size(); i++){
        Button newButton = new Button(this);
        SortingGroup s = currentOptions.get(i);
        newButton.setText(s.getName());
        sortGroupName = s.getName();;
        newButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(),CategorySelector.class);
                intent.putExtra("sorting_category_name",sortGroupName);
                startActivity(intent);
            }
        });
        l.addView(newButton);
    }

A: Add the sortGroupname in ArrayList and setid() for buttons
ArrayList<String> names=new ArrayList<>();
set id for buttons

newButton.setId(i);

Add names to arrayList
names.add(s.getName());

OnClick Listener like this
@Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(),CategorySelector.class);
            intent.putExtra("sorting_category_name",names.get(v.getId()));
            startActivity(intent);
        }

North London gymnast seeks support
Published: 7:13 PM January 19, 2018 Updated: 1:56 PM October 14, 2020
Hendon's Amaranta Chavez is an aspiring rhythmic gymnast (pic Daniela D'Amato) - Credit: Archant
Hendon's Amaranta Chavez has dreams of becoming a world-class rhythmic gymnast and a Just Giving campaign has been created to help her in that quest.
The 16-year-old trains with the London Academy of Gymnastics and Dance (LAGAD) in Muswell Hill and is among the top five elite gymnasts in Great Britain.
But the costs of training and competing at the top level make it hard for her to attend tournaments.
Jessica Shenton, director of LAGAD, said: "Our former head coach came running into my office one day and said you have to come and see this girl, she is just so talented.
"We were blown away by her potential. She is just exquisite to watch and is absolutely driven to do her best.
"She has great talent, dedication, determination and drive, but not enough money and this fund would allow her to train without the fear."
Chavez trains up to 20 hours per week, but coming from a single-parent household, she has had to miss vital sessions and competitions at times.
Mum Therese added: "The travel, training and competitions nationally and internationally cost a lot of money.
"I try and support her but we need to raise more funds to allow her to access all the training she needs. This would lift a lot of financial pressure."
Amaranta said: "My dream and main aim is to win medals for my country internationally at competitions like the World Championships and World Cup. If I have enough funding I would love to be able to train towards the Olympic Games."

Even after implementing a data analytics function, many internal audit departments struggle to provide larger insights to business executives. The results are too often esoteric, narrow or complex. Because of this challenge, investments in data analytics technology can fail to deliver a sufficient return on investment.
This fundamental problem has led to the meteoric rise in the use of visual analytics and dashboarding tools. Visual analytics is not simply depicting data in graphs and charts. Visual analytics is a method of interactive data exploration, allowing you to see the results of the analytics, and then further explore and analyze the reasons behind the results. Visual analytics is a means for understanding data, enabling you to leverage data to come to informed conclusions.
Focal Point specializes in helping companies integrate and build customized dashboards in Tableau, the industry standard in visual analytics. Focal Point will assist clients by presenting them with a diverse range of solutions, services and analytics to help them gain a better understanding of their data – visually. Focal Point helps organizations go beyond spreadsheets, organizing and displaying data in a way that adds real and significant value to internal audit.
Focal Point has data analytics experts and dashboard designers that work specifically with Tableau. These experts are experienced in assisting with integration, configuration and deployment of Tableau. Focal Point can assist in an outsourcing or co-sourcing capacity.
Using tools such as Tableau for visual analytics can have far-reaching positive impacts on your organization. As it becomes the standard interface through which internal audit and executives interact with data, its potential only grows.
Meaningful exploration. When executives and other employees are given self-service access to the visual analytics, they are able to answer many of their own questions without the direct involvement of the analytics team.
Cost savings. Aside from the opportunity to more easily identify fraud, waste and abuse, visual analytics can reduce the burden of reporting for your data analytics staff. Generating reports requires substantially less effort and the opportunity to explore the data minimizes follow-up report requests.
Efficient analysis. Visual analytics can take many traditional reports and display them side-by-side for comparison and analysis or combine data for visual representations of correlations. Performed manually, these processes can take far longer and still not deliver the intended results. Furthermore, advanced visual analytics gives users the opportunity for near real-time analysis, empowering executives to make the right decisions quickly.
Value to executives. Visual analytics gives executives and auditors a powerful tool to ensure that the data being gathered and analyzed delivers strategic and significant value for the organization.

The history of web hosting may be said to have begun in 1991, around the same time, too, that the internet and the World Wide Web have invaded the lives of the people. Web hosting has, however, markedly improved since that time on.
Advanced modes of communications such as the email, for instance, may have started long before that, of course, but admittedly, it was only in the 1990s when things started to change remarkably. During this time, there were no longer commercial restrictions, and the internet became an avenue for individual people to have their websites seen over the World Wide Web through a system called web hosting, something which was not made possible before. It can be said, then, that the history of web hosting began during that time only.
The period of 1991 was a period of great change for the internet, and web hosting in particular. The change that happened during this time is called the revolution of electronic commerce. This is the time when companies began to realize the profitability of the web hosting market and the potentials of having a web site of their own. Before that, only universities and big companies, perhaps, are able to have their own websites, but the history of web hosting opened new opportunities even for individual persons to have a website.
Initially, not everyone knew how to use web hosting to his advantage. Understandably, being new in the market, the idea of web hosting was quite difficult to grasp. For one, web hosting was very expensive back then, so not everyone had the opportunity to hire the services of a web hosting company so his website could be seen all over the internet. Back then, too, web hosting, used to be a very complicated procedure, often described in technical terms that were too difficult for a layman to understand and grasp. Fortunately, the concept of web hosting became less complex as the years went by. Maybe, this was largely because there are more types of web hosting services available now. In spite of this, however, the need for technical companies to operate the system are still apparent even to this day. The cost of web hosting, too, decreased considerably over the years. In fact, there are many web hosting companies now that offer their services for free.
Another change that web hosting has undergone through the years has something to do with the rent of space. In the past, computer companies would only rent out the space right from their own servers to host web pages, but nowadays, thousands upon thousands of individuals are able to offer similar services as well.
Nowadays, it is easier to understand what web hosting is all about. The concept of web hosting significantly improves with the passing of time. As detailed in the history of web hosting, the business of web hosting has, indeed, undergone tremendous changes through the years, all of which have created a huge impact in the industry.

Q: How can I shift individual cells in XY-pic without shifting the corresponding row/column? I'd like to create a figure using XY-pic in which one cell actually spans two rows (like \multirow).
Should look something like:
1,1       1,3
     BIG
2,1       3,3

With arrows from 1,1 and 2,1 to BIG and from BIG to 1,3 and 3,3.
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[all,cmtip]{xy}
\usepackage{multirow}
\begin{document}
\begin{equation}
\xymatrix{
1,1 \ar[dr] & & 1,3 \\
2,1 \ar[r] & \multirow{2}{*}{BIG} \ar[ur] \ar[r] & 2,3 \\
}
\end{equation}
\end{document}

I feel like there is a modifier on the element (some kind of *+5pt{BIG}) that would work, but I don't grok the Xy-pic user's manual. I did find some black magic that would shift the cell up but also increased the space between rows. Thanks for the help!

A: Use three rows and reduce the spacing between them:
\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage[all,cmtip,pdf]{xy}

\begin{document}

\xymatrix@R-1pc{
  1,1 \ar[dr] && 1,2 \\
  & BIG \ar[ur] \ar[dr] \\
  2,1 \ar[ur] && 2,2
}

\end{document}


In the digital age, many aspects of daily life are consistently being updated, remodeled and improved, often for the sake of increasing a person's options. Transportation has transformed rapidly in both nature and scope over the last few decades. As companies like Uber and Lyft grow, the health of public transportation may fall further into jeopardy.

Somebody have had this problem while is uploading the bootloader??
You're using an incomplete board definition that omits the upload.tool parameter, or you're using a board definition from pre-1.6 days with a modern version of the IDE.
For most common use cases, there's a modern board package available, usually through board manager - if you tell us what you're bootloading, we can point you to the right one. Unfortunately a lot of pre-1.6 tutorials that tell people to modify boards.txt (which nowadays you should never be doing) are still being used, when the correct solution is to use an existing board package.

Have you ever gone on a vacation despairing why you left your pet at home? Finding out that there are different people on the same holiday together with their dogs. Many individuals now like to go on a holiday with their dogs, so can you! Just have a note of these things before you decide to take your furry friend with you on vacation.
Many dogs love to travel with their owners, but this is not correct for each dog. To travel happily and safely your dog ought to be health, able to cope with new surroundings, ought to be house-trained and enjoy traveling. A stressed dog will neither enjoy the trip nor will let you enjoy it and cause trouble. A happy and well-behaved dog, on the contrary, will make you enjoy the trip.
All the pet owners love their dogs, and it is very difficult to leave your dog behind when going on a holiday, even if it's in their best interest. However, if you have planned activities that don't involve your dog or you intend to visit places which don't welcome pets – then its best that you call a trusted family member or friend and ask them to keep your dog for you in your absence, or you may hire a pet care-taker or get a boarding kennel. But if you're planning to be relaxing at a lake or take long walks on track then you can take your dog with you.
How Are You Planning To Travel? – Many men and women who travel with their pets traveling in their own automobiles and for good reason so that they can check on their dogs. But if you are travelling exhaustive plane, then you have to leave your dog alone for some time since he'll be flying in the cargo where you won't have the ability to check him.
What Are The Pet Policies At The Cruise Line? – Pet policies are different in each cruise line, so once you make your reservation check on the pet policies of that ship. You want to check whether they allow the dog to keep in the cottage or are there any additional charges if you are accompanied with more than two puppies.
All these things are essential and you want to pay attention towards them when traveling with your dog. Don't forget to do the cleanup of your dog's mess, as many cruises will appreciate you for this and welcome you again.


From Music Muso : Back when I was a callow youth, I remember The Blow Monkeys as being one of those smooth 80s bands with a big snare drum sound, plenty of horns and a good looking frontman with an interesting name. Much as a friend of mine is going to hate me for saying this (The BM's are one of her favourite bands) I knew a couple of their singles and wasn't sufficiently interested to find out any more. Their new album "If Not Now, When?" is released on April 6th and MusicMuso was given a copy to check out.
Having been asked to review this album, I wasn't expecting great things for precisely the reasons that the press pack sets out: The Blow Monkeys are strongly associated with their 80s hits – "Digging Your Scene" and "It Doesn't Have to Be This Way". I didn't think that much of those two white soul-boy styled singles but on listening to the opening track – "OK! Have It Your Way", the requisite Blow Monkeys horns were still present but this had more of a stomp to it and….. wait….was that a rock riff I could hear? I thought I was listening to a lost Primal Scream track – it reminded me of "Rocks Off" in both feel and tempo whilst retaining an originality of its own. I had to check that I was listening to the same Blow Monkeys that I remembered – a really strong opening track. Yes I was listening to the right band – so let's try the second song – "The Sound of Laughter"….. opening with a riff that mixes Status Quo, Slade and T. Rex, it's another really good glam rock song – am I really hearing this right? This is the Blow Monkeys, right? How come it's so good? The third song – "All That Glitters" changes the pace a little but it still fairly rocks although the piano is a little more to the forefront - but it's a wonderful ballad-style groover. "Think Again" starts with some weird synth noises, one of a few nods to their 80s years before the rhythm section locks into a tight groove before the full band kicks in with – check this out – hammond organ and dirty sleazy guitars, yet another winner of a tune. "The Guessing Game" follows and is another glam rock style tune – the boys are obviously giving free rein to the music that would have provided the sound track to their formative years. It has a riff that is reminiscent of "Blockbuster" and unsurprisingly as Bowie admitted to nicking it – "The Jean Genie". Halfway through and this album is starting to sound like it could be an earlier contender for album of the year.
The second half of the album begins with "The Sun is in The Sky". It starts life as a gentle, piano led ballad but gradually increases the layers, sounding not unlike some of the more mellow output of the likes of The Stones. "Stay Now" is also a slow ballad-y type of song, with almost a country feel to it. Like the rest of the album this sounds like a guitar based band – not like the keys/sax version of the 80s at all. Similar to Snack Family (reviewed late last year) – this wouldn't sound out of place being played live in a smoky basement. "Shadow Boxing" hints at their heyday a little, with its insistent cowbell, sounding like a sample from a Roland drum machine but that is forgivable because the rest of the song is a sleazy grinder with some lovely lowdown guitars and sax. It's another highlight in a really strong album. The penultimate song is the title track which references early Bowie and T. Rex again – another strong song. The album closes with another slow based song – "The Lions of Charing Cross" which features acoustic guitars and a fair bit of side stick drumming. It's the longest song on the album, weighing it at just under 7 minutes and to be honest is the only criticism I have of the album – and that's only because I think it's a half decent song that outstays its welcome.
I didn't expect to like this album that much and was a tad worried how to word a review to that extent - but I was more than pleasantly surprised to be completely blown away by it. Anyone into their rock/glam rock really needs to give this album a try and whilst I can pick out bits of all the glam rock hall of fame (Slade, T. Rex, The Sweet Bowie and even a touch of Queen) I hear this more as an influence than a direct rip-off of ideas. I almost think they would be better off trying to market this as a new band rather than as The Blow Monkeys due to a lot of people having (incorrectly, like myself) got them pegged with one style of music. Apparently The Blow Monkeys are in a rich vein of form and lead singer Dr. Robert claims (like every other artist releasing "new product") thinks this may be the best thing they've ever done. On what I hear, he may just be right this time – but with songs this good further investigation is most definitely required.

Stevenson's Joyce Bai wraps up impressive freshman season
By Rich Mayor
Pioneer Press |

Eager to make an emphatic first impression on Stevenson golfers and coaches, Joyce Bai stepped up to the first tee at the Patriots' preseason tryouts.
Four shots later, the freshman was still on the tee at Crane's Landing Golf Club in Lincolnshire. Bai had hit four consecutive drives into the woods, considered a hazard at the tryout, well left of the fairway.
She finished the hole with an 11, and her high school career was off to a less-than-rousing start.
"I was terrified. I was shaking," said Bai, who lives in Buffalo Grove. "When the first ball went out, I thought, 'OK, it's OK, I can bring it back.' But then the second one went out. Third and fourth did the same thing.
"I'm shaking all over and after that hole, all I'm thinking is, 'I got an 11, I got an 11.' So I was calculating in my mind how many pars I'd have to get to get a good score. And thank God I got it back."

What caught the attention of coach Emma Degen wasn't necessarily the four errant shots off the tee — "you're excited to see her, then she puts four balls away on the first hole, all the sudden you're not looking at her too much," Degen said — but the final score of that particular round.
After the initial 11, Bai overcame her nerves and finished the nine-hole round with a 44.
"That's when I knew she was a real deal," Degen said.
Bai's first high school golf season concluded Monday, Oct. 10, at the Class 2A Buffalo Grove Sectional at Buffalo Grove Golf Course. She fired an 82 in ideal conditions, just three shots off the state-qualifying score of 79. Bai, the lone Stevenson representative at the sectional, finished in a tie for 23rd place.
"Joyce doesn't believe she's as good as she actually is, so she walks around at these tournaments thinking, 'Oh wow, I'm playing here with all these good people, and they're so much better than me,'" Degen said. "She doesn't believe she can always keep up with those kids, but obviously she has, and hopefully in the future she'll realize how good she actually is.

"Three years left and shooting an 82 at sectionals? You can't be mad about that."
Bai made perhaps her greatest mark this season at the Vernon Hills Cougar Classic on Saturday, Sept. 10. Degen was tending to other players and helping score the event, so she didn't spend much time on the course with Bai. In the few brief conversations the two had, Bai, as she often does, expressed pessimism about her play.
So Degen was surprised when a gaggle of Stevenson players ran up to her yelling about Bai's score after the meet concluded. Bai had fired an even-par 72, good enough to win the tournament and push the Patriots to a team victory.
Bai also finished third at the North Suburban Conference tournament on Wednesday, Sept. 28, further displaying a quiet confidence and well-rounded game that will serve as her foundation for the next three seasons.
"She's a kid that I don't need to worry about," Degen said. "I don't need to worry about her practicing in the offseason because she absolutely loves to practice. You don't get a lot of kids like that, who really just love to go to the range, and I think that's going to really pay off next season, especially after making sectionals.

CHAPTER: KAHANAT (DIVINATION) IS PROHIBITED AND IT IS FORBIDDEN TO GO TO THE KAHIN
Mu'awiya b. al-Hakam as-Sulami reported: I said: Messenger of Allaah, there were things we used to do in the pre-Islamic days. We used to visit Kahins, whereupon he said: Don't visit Kahins. I said: We used to take omens. He said: That is a sort of personal whim of yours, so let it not prevent you (from doing a thing).
This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Zuhri with a slight variation of wording.
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Mu'awiya b. Hakam as-Sulami through another chain of transmitters. The hadith transmitted on the authority of Yahya b. Abu Kathir (there is an addition of these words): I said: Among us there are men who draw lines and thus make divination. What about this? Thereupon he (the Prophet) said: There was a Prophet who drew lines, so whose lines agree with his line for him it is allowable.
'A'isha reported: I said: Allaah's Messenger, the kahins used to tell us about things (unseen) and we found them to be true. Thereupon he said: That is a word pertaining to truth which a jinn snatches and throws into the ear of his friend, and makes an addition of one hundred lies to it.
'Urwa reported from 'A'isha that she said that people asked Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) about the kahins. Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said to them: It is nothing (i. e. it is a mere superstition). They said: Allaah's Messenger, they at times narrate to us things which we find true. Thereupon Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: That is a word pertaining to truth which a jinn snatches away and then cackles into the ear of his friend as the hen does. And then they mix in it more than one hundred lies.
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Zuhri with the same chain of transmitters.
'Abdullah. Ibn 'Abbas reported: A person from the Ansar who was amongst the Companions of Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) reported to me: As we were sitting during the night with Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam), a meteor shot gave a dazzling light. Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: What did you say in the pre-Islamic days when there was such a shot (of meteor)? They said: Allaah and His Messenger know best (the actual position), but we, however, used to say that that very night a great man had been born and a great man had died, whereupon Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: (These meteors) are shot neither at the death of anyone nor on the birth of anyone. Allaah, the Exalted and Glorious, issues Command when He decides to do a thing. Then (the Angels) supporting the Throne sing His glory, then sing the dwellers of heaven who are near to them until this glory of God reaches them who are in the heaven of this world. Then those who are near the supporters of the Throne ask these supporters of the Throne: What your Lord has said? And they accordingly inform them what He says. Then the dwellers of heaven seek information from them until this information reaches the heaven of the world. In this process of transmission (the jinn snatches) what he manages to overhear and he carries it to his friends. And when the Angels see the jinn they attack them with meteors. If they narrate only which they manage to snatch that is correct but they alloy it with lies and make additions to it.
The hadith has been narrated on the authority of Zuhri through the same chain of transmitters but with a slight variation of wording.
Safiyya reported from some of the wives of Allaah's Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) Allaah's Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) having said: He who visits a divner ('Arraf) and asks him about anything, his prayers extending to forty nights will not be accepted.

Amber Rudd resigns
The Work and Pensions Secretary and Minister for Women and Equalities Amber Rudd has sensationally quit both as a cabinet minister and as a Conservative. This is how she showed her opposition to the current PM Boris Johnson and protested against his policy towards cutting ties between the UK and the European Union. Since the UK voted to leave the European Union, and David Cameron resigned, five Equalities Ministers have been either sacked or resigned, Ms. Rudd made history doing it twice. In a video statement that she recorded for the Sunday Times website, the Hastings and Rye MP said that to her mind the deal with the EU is unprepared and it surprises her in a negative way. "I knew and I accepted that the prime minister should be able to leave no-deal on the table, but what I had expected to see was a huge government-centred effort to get a deal, and at the moment there is a lot of work going on to no-deal and not enough going into getting a deal," she went on, "On top of that I've seen 21 of my colleagues, good, strong conservative MPs with true moderate, progressive values, excluded from the party, indicating that the Conservative Party that is such a force for good in this country no long"

Online Abortion Providers Cindy Adam and Lauren Dubey of Choix: "We're Really Excited About the Future of Abortion Care"
Carrie N. Baker
A range of telemedicine abortion providers are springing up in the U.S. in response to the removal of FDA restrictions on the abortion pill mifepristone—like Cindy Adam and Lauren Dubey, nurse practitioners and owners of Choix, a virtual clinic offering asynchronous telemedicine abortion services to people in California, Colorado and Illinois.
"It feels really cool that I can do this on a day-to-day basis," Dubey said. "Cindy and I are at the forefront of telemedicine abortion, teaching other people how to do it, helping more people to do it and exposing the world to this new type of care. It is incredibly fulfilling, not just being an abortion provider and not just doing it via telehealth, but being at the forefront of abortion care in a new way."
Telemedicine Abortion Provider Dr. Deborah Oyer Supports Patient Autonomy and Control: "No Different Than When They're in Clinic"
A range of telemedicine abortion providers are springing up in the U.S. in response to the removal of FDA restrictions on the abortion pill mifepristone. Meet one provider: Dr. Deborah Oyer, the medical director of Cedar River Clinics, who has seen a 79 percent increase of medication abortion since adding telemedicine abortion, versus in-clinic only before COVID.
"I cannot begin to put into words the honor and privilege of being an abortion provider. People let me into their lives in the most intimate way. In some ways, there is a little more intimacy doing a telemedicine abortion right now versus an in-person one, because I actually get to see their unmasked faces."
Online Abortion Provider Robin Tucker: "I'm Trying To Remove Barriers. … It Feels Great To Be Able To Help People This Way"
A wide range of telemedicine abortion providers are springing up across the country in response to the recent removal of longstanding FDA restrictions on the abortion pill mifepristone.
Meet one provider: Robin Tucker, a nurse practitioner of women's health and a certified nurse midwife who offers first-trimester medication abortion by phone call, video visit or online intake forms to patients in Virginia, Maryland and Maine.
"People say, this seems too good to be true, this just seems so easy, there has to be a catch."
Is It Legal to Order Abortion Pills Online?
As abortion restrictions increase, clinics close, and the cost of abortion goes up, more and more women are ordering abortion pills online and taking them safely at home, with and without telehealth support. Traffic has spiked on the website of the abortion pill advocacy group Plan C, which shares information about how to buy abortion pills online and get them by mail in all 50 states. Over the last several months, Plan C's website has had over 200,000 visitors with 88 percent new visitors. A quarter of them have come from Texas.
But is it legal to purchase abortion pills online?
FDA Lifts Some Abortion Pill Restrictions, Leaves Others in Place: "Ignores the Science and Smacks of Political Interference"
On Thursday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) lifted a long-standing requirement that physicians must distribute the abortion pill mifepristone to patients in person, but left in place several burdensome restrictions that continue to unnecessarily restrict and stigmatize this safe medication, say advocates. The decision came in response to a case filed by the ACLU on behalf of abortion providers and medical groups.
"It's purely political. These pills should not only be in pharmacies, they should be available over-the-counter. But instead, years later, we're still in a place where people think of this as a drug that is so dangerous it has to be in a black box."
Abortion Pills in Your Medicine Cabinet? Advance Provision Medication to End Early Pregnancies
Advance provision of abortion pills is a growing trend among clinicians. This model could significantly shorten the time between the decision to end a pregnancy and having an abortion, and short circuit the medically-unnecessary obstacle course that currently exists in many states for people trying to access medication abortion.
Supreme Court Refuses to Block Texas Abortion Ban—Leaving Only Slow, Arduous and Uncertain Pathways to Ending the Ban
On Friday, the Supreme Court refused to block a clearly-unconstitutional abortion ban in Texas, leaving in place S.B. 8, which bans most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy—before many women even know they are pregnant.
"It's stunning that the Supreme Court has essentially said that federal courts cannot stop this bounty-hunter scheme enacted to blatantly deny Texans their constitutional right to abortion," said Nancy Northup, president and CEO of the Center for Reproductive Rights. "For 100 days now, this six-week ban has been in effect, and today's ruling means there is no end in sight. Pregnant people will continue to live in a state of panic and uncertainty."
N.Y. Lawmakers and Activists Speak Out for Abortion Rights and Reproductive Justice: "If We Cannot Control Our Own Bodies, There Is No Democracy"

Maloney (D-N.Y.) with New York political leaders and reproductive rights advocates in front of Planned Parenthood Manhattan Health Center in New York City on Monday.
Facebook Profits from Anti-Abortion Misinformation While Suppressing Medically Accurate Abortion Facts
Social media companies are circulating anti-abortion groups' unproven and potentially dangerous "abortion pill reversal" theory, while at the same time blocking factual information about abortion pills from reproductive health groups.
"Facebook and its subsidiary Instagram are hiding vital, accurate information about abortion pills—and we won't stand for it."

Alan Titchmarsh urges public to 'buy British' plants and calls on government to reopen gardening centres to stop nurseries going bust
The industry has been hit hard by the lockdown because it is not geared up to making household deliveries of huge volumes of plants

TV gardener Alan Titchmarsh is urging the public to "buy British" plants to ensure that the "love, care, attention and skill" of our beleaguered nurseries and garden centres are not lost forever.
In an interview with i, Mr Titchmarsh said his love of gardening has hit a new high after spending so much time in his garden during lockdown.

Coronavirus testing centres near me: the full list of UK locations, and how to get a test
This has made him keener than ever to protect British growers and retailers from going bust as they reel from store closures.
"It's not xenophobia. It's just really important that we support our growers in this industry. They do a fine job – they're not in it for the money, goodness me they're not," said the ITV Love Your Garden presenter.
Love, attention and skill
Alan Titchmarsh says that even the smallest patch of earth – from window boxes to pots – can be a salve to the soul during lockdown
"The love and the care and attention and the skill that's gone into it and the information that they pass on is really worth having. Any skill or knowledge which is lost or dissipated in any form is a tragedy and we need to make sure that our horticultural industry survives and thrives. By supporting local growers you can do that," Mr Tichmarsh said.
He has spent a great deal of time of late working in the four-acre garden of his Georgian farmhouse near Alton in Hampshire.
"During this lockdown period people have really learned of the value of the smallest patch of earth, or even a window box or a pot, in lifting the spirits. Covid-19 has increased levels of alcoholism and depression but the garden has been a great safety valve for people to just get out and unwind," he said.
"Gardens, plants, flowers and trees are real and untroubled by human difficulties. I've spent over a month in my own garden and I've just had the most glorious time. And it's connected me to the earth even more. I've had the opportunity to be in it – and of it – every day, all day, and that's been a delight," Mr Titchmarsh said.
Gardening industry in danger
But if large swathes of Britain's horticulture industry get wiped out, gardening solace will be that much harder to come by in the future, he argues.
The industry has been hit hard by the lockdown because it is not geared up to making household deliveries of huge volumes of plants and other gardening products that are often bulky and delicate.
"There is huge customer demand online, it's gone exponential. But the physical logistics of putting plants into cardboard boxes and making sure that they stay upright and they don't get crushed is just hugely difficult," said James Barnes, chairman of the Horticultural Trades Association (HTA) for growers and garden centres.
"You just can't shift the volume. You're trying to squeeze 100 per cent through what used to be only 10 per cent of the industry – it's logistically impossible," he said.
Can't meet online demand
Pre-lockdown, 90 per cent of garden centre business came from physical visits to sites (Photo: Dan Mullan/Getty)
As a result, the retailers have been unable to meet soaring online demand, so they lose sales.
The growers who supply them, in turn, are having to compost most of the bedding plants they produced for sale, since they are perishable and can't be held in stock for a later date.
There were an estimated 500 million bedding plants sitting in UK greenhouses in the middle of April ready for sale – enough to cover the city of Liverpool if they were planted side by side.
A report this week warned that one in three of the country's 650 plant growers – many of which are family businesses – expect to go bust by the end of the year, even with promised government aid. And one in 10 could be bankrupt by the end of June, according to a survey by the HTA.
Calls to reopen garden centres
The Association, Mr Titchmarsh and other leading TV gardeners such BBC Gardeners' World presenter Joe Swift and Pippa Greenwood, of Radio 4's Gardener's Question Time are calling on the Government to allow garden centres to reopen, as long as they observe strict social distancing rules. They point out that elsewhere in Europe this is already allowed.
If this doesn't happen soon, so many growers will suffer that a large range of home-grown British plants may not be available for up to two years, which will increase imports and leave the UK at increased risk of infectious diseases and pests, they warn.
'The physical logistics of selling plants online are hugely difficult'
Failure to reopen the centres would also increase the risk of gardeners turning to online overseas suppliers in the shorter term when domestic suppliers can't deliver, they say.
"The grower business that supports all of the plants supplied to the United Kingdom is under catastrophic financial stress and by opening gardening centres you would help remedy that," said Mr Barnes.
Some DIY stores open
While some DIY outlets have opened because their hardware offering is classed as "essential", garden centres remain shut because their products are not regarded as such.
Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said on Wednesday that the Government's emergency scientific advisory committee Sage had looked at reopening gardening centres and concluded that the health risk of doing so remained too high.
However, the matter is "under very close review", he said, adding: "It's certainly very firmly registered that this is an important area for us to look at for the future."
21 butterflies and moths to spot in gardens, parks and woodland
Until garden centres are reopened, the public can also help support growers and retailers by using whatever click-and-collect services they offer, after the Government clarified this week they are allowed to sell products in this way.
This allows customers to place an order online, by telephone or, potentially, by post and pick the goods up at the store.
"We would encourage click and collect but it will never solve the issue of growers and nurseries having to throw away huge volumes of stock," said Mr Barnes.

The first incident -- an aggravated robbery -- happened around 1:20pm Saturday in the 2900 block of Airport.
According to police, a Hispanic male in his late teens or early 20s blocked the victim's car, exited his vehicle and took money from the victim at gunpoint.
The suspect fled with an undisclosed amount of money in a red or maroon sedan with a black front fender on the driver's side. He was wearing a blue shirt and black shorts.
A little over an hour later, police said the same suspect struck again in the 1500 block of Jones Street.
This time, it was an attempted home invasion.
Police said the suspect knocked on the door and then began kicking it when the victim refused to answer. He was unable to gain entry and he fled the scene. The victim recorded still photographs and video of the suspect's car as he drove away.
Anyone with information on the identity of this suspect is urged to call Rosenberg Police Department Investigator John White at 832-595-3720 or Fort Bend County Crime Stoppers at 281-342-TIPS.
