Don't think there's a time warp when hundreds of classic cars are sighted on Border streets this weekend.
The 27th annual Chryslers on the Murray has attracted vehicles and drivers from "absolutely every state and territory of Australia", according to Rod Taylor, one of the show co-ordinators.
"Quite a few of them put their cars on the ferry and come over from Tasmania," he added.
Mr Taylor, of Albury Wodonga Chrysler Club, said pre-entries on Thursday had reached 565, already 40 up on last year.
Another 300 or so could enter on the day, as happened in a record 2018.
"The amazing thing is we're probably running at 15 to 20 per cent of new vehicles, who haven't been here before," he said.
Two years ago 747 cars set a new benchmark, which was broken with 853 entries the next year.
Friday night's Great Reveal, an addition to the 2019 program, sees owners unveil their newly restored Chryslers and talk about them.
"There's a five-minute limit, some would never shut up at all," Mr Taylor said with a laugh.
On Saturday morning the cars will be judged in their various categories, about 50 different sections that are generally based on vehicle model.
"They either look to see how well it's been restored or if it's been modified, how well it's been engineered, the workmanship," the organiser said.
The Chryslers go on public display on Sunday at Gateway Lakes between 8am and 3pm in a family-friendly event that includes face painting, children's rides, a swap meet and shaded areas.
"No matter what you're into, or what era you're familiar with, there's something there you'll find quite interesting," Mr Taylor said.
Lauded as the biggest Chrysler show in the southern hemisphere, the Border event continues to grow through word of mouth and repeat participants.
At the end of the weekend, thousands of dollars will be donated to the Thurgoona, Bonegilla and Kiewa fire brigades.
"Because they help us run the show," Mr Taylor said.
"We couldn't do without them, we just haven't got the manpower.
"We're actually the smallest Chrysler club in Australia running the biggest show."
Discuss "Chryslers drive by the Murray en masse as record beckons"

We usually get tired, feels weak, and becomes restless once in a while. But, for people with anemia, these are more or less what they experience every day. When one suffers from anemia, he or she gets tired easily from working, feels dizzy for no reason, and is generally overcome by fatigue.
Sangobion IRON+ (Ferrous Gluconate+Vitamins & Minerals) has always been serious about fighting iron deficiency anemia. To accomplish this, Sangobion is launching a new campaign, Sulong Dugong Pinoy.
Dr. Corazon Zaida N. Gamilla, University of Sto. Tomas Hospital's Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology chairman, who discussed the importance of healthy blood in supporting the functions of the body, the prevalence of anemia, its symptoms, and ways to prevent and treat it.
Also present was Dr. Christie Monina Nalupta – Director of the Philippine Red Cross - National Blood Services, who graced the event to support Sangobion's vision of a healthy blood nation.
Meanwhile, the Marketing Director of Merck (makers of Sangobion IRON+), Ming Arroyo-Cunanan, focused on the brand's relevance and big plans.
"We have been helping men and women from across the country fight anemia with Sangobion, and I'm happy to say that we've been successful. That's why we think that now is the time to start elevating the brand's purpose. It's more than just treating anemia, it's about maintaining healthy blood to empower every Filipino. Our vision is a blood-healthy Philippines." Cunanan said of Sangobion's plans this year. Singer and actress Sarah Geronimo, who has been part of the Sangobion family for two years now was also there.
Check out the teaser for the new Sangobion TVC below:
"There really are a lot of amazing things coming for Sangobion." Sarah enthusiastically told the crowd. "I'm inviting everyone to join us sa Saturday, April 8 po, at the SM Mall of Asia Music Hall for the Sulong Dugong Pinoy Blood Health Event sponsored by Sangobion of course, and supported po ng Philippine Red Cross." Major activities like the official TVC premiere will take place, all to kickstart the Sangobion Sulong Dugong Pinoy campaign.

On April 23, 2017 marks another of raising the public's consciousness about environmental issues and health and fitness for National Geographic, which celebrates its eighth straight year of holding Earth Day Run. Presented by the channel and its partners Cherifer Premium and World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF), Earth Day Run 2017 aims to continue the tradition of being one of the biggest running events in the country, expecting scores of running enthusiasts and Eco Warriors to register and run for the environment. The event will be held not only in Manila but simultaneously in the cities of Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore and Taichung, an initiative that was adopted last year and effectively spread the vision and advocacy of Earth Day Run across Asia.
At Earth Day Run 2017, National Geographic will be celebrating eight years of social awareness through fitness with special program features using the hashtag #8withEDR. With the hopes of mobilizing all the Eco Warriors of previous Earth Day Runs, this year's event welcomes all previously registered participants with VIP treatment and special loyalty perks to be enjoyed on the day of the run. Participants from previous Earth Day Runs will be given priority placement in front of the starting line at the beginning of the race and can claim their loot bags and finisher shirt at a special express booth. They can also make use of a special warm-up and cool down tent before and after the race to condition themselves and recover in comfort.
This year's new participants can also join in the celebrations for Earth Day Run's eighth anniversary by visiting the 8 Years of EDR Gallery at the race village and learning about what the event has accomplished over the years, including the environmental and social initiatives it has benefited with the help of its registered runners. Visitors to the gallery will learn how their participation at Earth Day Run has made a significant impact on certain communities in the Philippines as well as how their actions as individuals can affect the environment.
Earth Day Run 2017 in Manila will be held at the SM Mall of Asia grounds, where participants can join 5K, 10K, 21K and 42K categories. The event encourages and welcomes all types of Eco Warriors to take part, from fun-runners of all ages to the serious marathon runners who regularly compete. This year, Earth Day Run will also be sporting new features for its runners. As a special treat, all race kits will come with LED shoelaces, serving as a badge of pride and as a safety precaution for Eco Warriors running at night or before sunrise. Prizes will also be given to costumed runners who showcase their creativity by coming in their best ensemble made from recycled materials. Finally, to make each Eco Warrior's voice heard in this run for the Earth, advocacy banners will be hanging above the finish line so that each runner can grab them as they cross to make a shout-out for the environment, keep as a souvenir, and use for all their post-run selfies to amplify the message of acting now to save the environment.
Last year, Earth Day Run participants ran to benefit such causes as saving the Irawaddy dolphins at the Malampaya Sound Research and Conservation Project in Palawan; giving the Earth Hour or "Gift of Life" village in Monreal, Masbate sustainable solutions that reduce carbon footprint; conservation of the Marine Protected Area and coral reef in Apo Reef in Occidental Mindoro; and beefing up reforestation efforts in the Ipo Watershed in Bulacan, which supplies Metro Manila with fresh water. Registered runners at Earth Day Run 2017 will not only experience a fun day of outdoor fitness by joining this year's event, but will also be doing their part in contributing to National Geographic's environmental efforts.
"Earth Day Run 2017 will be the biggest version of the race yet, with more expected participants from Manila and four other cities across Asia. We're also excited to look back on our eight years of environmental advocacy and share and celebrate with our runners the positive change that they helped make possible through the years by joining Earth Day Run. We hope that Earth Day Run 2017 not only brings communities of running enthusiasts together for the common cause of saving the environment but also that it amplifies the important message of doing your own part today to help stop climate change and commit to sustainable solutions to save our beloved planet Earth," said Charo Espedido, Director and Head of Content and Marketing at FOX Networks Group Philippines.
Interested runners of all ages can join National Geographic's Earth Day Run 2017 by registering at natgeoearthdayrun.com and from March 1 to April 16, 2017.

US Treasury Hits Out at EU Tax Probe Into Apple, Starbucks, Fiat, Amazon
In a remarkably strident report, the US Treasury has criticized the European Commission's tax probe into Apple, Starbucks, Fiat (now Fiat Chrysler Automobiles), and Amazon, claiming that it should not be able to collect back-taxes on the companies in Europe.
EU Competition Chief Set to Probe Google Tax Breaks
The European Commission launched a series of investigations into the companies for using making use of benign tax arrangements in Ireland, Luxembourg and the Netherlands in order to reduce its tax bills on profits made in other EU member states.
However, in a sign of tensions between the US and Brussels, the US Treasury report said that the Commission had changed its approach to the tax arrangements, classing them as "State Aid," which is banned under EU rules.
"[The] Commission is seeking to recover amounts related to tax years prior to the announcement of this new approach-in effect seeking retroactive recoveries. Because the Commission's approach departs from prior practice, it should not be applied retroactively."
"Indeed, it would be inconsistent with EU legal principles to do so. Moreover, imposing retroactive recoveries would undermine the G20's efforts to improve tax certainty and set an undesirable precedent for tax authorities in other countries," the report said.
EU Lawmakers Threaten Multinationals with Sanctions Over Tax Probe
The heavyweight intervention in EU affairs — amid rising opposition to US firms using aggressive tax measures to reduce their tax bills in EU states — comes at a critical time, as the US is trying to push through the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) trade deal.
The strong language in the report backing the US-based companies will be seen by many critics of TTIP as a further sign that the US is using the trade agreement to favor US firms doing business in the EU. There has already been criticism of the US side attempting to water down strict EU standards on food and pharmaceutical safety, the environment and workers' rights.

On June 11, 2014, the Commission initiated an investigation of advance pricing arrangements provided by the Irish tax authorities to Apple regarding the attribution of profits to an Irish branch of an Irish company that, under Irish law, was treated as non-resident for Irish tax purposes because it was not managed and controlled in Ireland. The Commission has not issued a final decision; however, its preliminary view is that the arrangements constitute State aid.
On June 11, 2014, the Commission initiated an investigation of advance pricing arrangements provided by Dutch tax authorities relating to the transfer price of royalties paid by a Starbucks affiliate in Netherlands to its UK affiliate, as well as the prices paid by a Dutch manufacturing affiliate to a Swiss affiliate for roasting coffee beans. The Commission has issued a final decision that the arrangements constitute State aid. The decision is on appeal to the EU General Court.
On June 11, 2014, the Commission initiated an investigation of an advance pricing arrangement provided by Luxembourg tax authorities to a Fiat financing company based in Luxembourg. The Commission has issued a final decision that the arrangements constitute State aid. The decision is on appeal to the EU General Court.
On October 7, 2014, the Commission initiated an investigation of advance pricing arrangements provided by Luxembourg tax authorities relating to the transfer price of royalties paid by an Amazon Luxembourg affiliate. The Commission has not issued a final decision; however, its preliminary view is that the arrangements constitute State aid.

COVID-19 curbs China's power in Indo-Pacific, risks of war 'significant' - report
December 5, 2021, 6:40 a.m. ·2 min read
People wearing protective masks walk on a street, following the new cases of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), in Shanghai
MELBOURNE (Reuters) - The coronavirus pandemic has weakened China's power in the Indo-Pacific, and the region's deepening security uncertainties present a "significant" risk of war, the Lowy Institute said in a report on Sunday.
U.S. allies in the region and key balancing powers such as India have never been more dependent on American capacity and willingness to sustain a military and strategic counterweight in response to China's rise, said the Sydney-based foreign policy think tank.
At the same time, Beijing has sought to dissuade Southeast Asian countries from joining the U.S. coalition, while upgrading its military exchanges with Russia and Pakistan as well as North Korea and creating as such a formidable trio of China-aligned nuclear-armed powers in the region.
"Whether the emerging balance of military power contributes to deterrence and strategic stability in the Indo-Pacific is an open question," the report said.
"The depth of hostilities, the breadth of U.S.–China competition and the presence of multiple potential flashpoints means the risk of war is significant."
The impact from the pandemic has undermined the overall region's prosperity, weakening China's comprehensive power.
"Beijing is now less likely to pull ahead of its peer competitor in comprehensive power by the end of the decade – this suggests that there is nothing inevitable about China's rise in the world," the report said. "It appears very unlikely China will ever be as dominant as the United States once was."
The think tank said Australia, whose relations with China have deteriorated significantly in recent years, has weathered China's growing power better than most U.S. partners - but is growing more reliant on Washington.
In 2018, Australia banned Chinese tech giant Huawei Technologies Co from its 5G telecommunications network. Relations worsened last year when Canberra called for an independent investigation into the origins of the coronavirus, prompting a series of trade reprisals from China.

BOSTON (AP) — Microsoft said late Saturday that dozens of computer systems at an unspecified number of Ukrainian government agencies have been infected with destructive malware disguised as ransomware, a disclosure suggesting an attention-grabbing defacement attack on official websites was a diversion. The extent of the damage was not immediately clear. The attack comes as the threat of a Russian invasion of Ukraine looms and diplomatic talks to resolve the tense stand-off appear stalled. Micros

So far this week I've had two rehearsals for Sunday's Bach cantata at St John's - Tuesday was a piano rehearsal, learning the notes and how it all fits together, then tonight we had our run-through with the orchestra. Graham always puts together a great collection of instrumentalists and this week's cantata, Bleib bei uns, denn es will Abend werden, uses the oboe da caccias (oboes da caccia?) owned by the church. Add an oboe and a bassoon for continuo and it's a wonderful reedy sound.
We only heard two of the soloists tonight, Robert Macfarlane, the tenor, and Nick ? a wonderful sounding bass who is also singing in the next Gombert concert. Sunday morning promises to be a most excellent performance.
Tomorrow afternoon we have a rehearsal for the Brumel Earthquake mass to be performed as part of the Ensemble Gombert concert the following Saturday. So I'm keeping myself out of mischief.


I swear I'll go watch some LFN after this and stop spamming the flist, but I just got email that the interview I mentioned a month or so back has been posted, so I thought I'd, er, well, spam the flist and let you know. slovobooks, you'd specifically wanted to know when that was up, so there ya go!
Oh dear god. That would be a mutant power that would need to be *stopped*. With force - it'd be like gremlins, only without the cute and fuzzy stage.
What a GREAT interview! I haven't seen the Cate Dermody books yet. I know Harlequin lines don't tend to be in my local bookstore except for the most recent releases. Is there somewhere you could recommend getting them?
Your "useless mutant ability" wish is precisely the same as mine, particularly as I mull over my next hair color choice, and sometimes wish my hair was longer.
And that, right there, is probably the main reason Tonks is my favorite Harry (ha! Originally spelled that Hairy) Potter character.

Mourinho: It's funny that Klopp had to backtrack
Following Manchester United's purchase of Paul Pogba, Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp went to the press with a holier than thou attitude, claiming he would leave football before overseeing fortunes spent in the transfer market.
Other clubs can go out and spend more money. I want to do it differently. I would even do it differently if I could spend that money. The day that this is football, I'm not in a job any more.
Liverpool went on to spend a remarkable £155 million last season and this summer have spent a further £160m. These totals include them braking the world record fees for a defender and a goalkeeper when signing Virgil van Dijk and Alisson.
Following Manchester United's pre-season win over AC Milan, Jose Mourinho was asked about Klopp's hypocrisy.
I think if you have the money, if you invest well, is better than to have it in the bank, because the interests are very low! The problem is you have to invest well and honestly I think they did very well because every player they bought are quality players and I'm happy for them.
And I'm also happy to smile and to see that, you know, you can change your opinion and change as a person. Is funny. But that's okay.
But maybe this season finally you demand that they win. You, I think, you have to be fair and now you have to demand and say the team with investments, who are making investments that they started making last season, not just this season, last season.
That you made in January, that you make now, that will probably be the record of the Premier League this season, I don't see another team getting close to that level of investment, a team that was a finalist in the Champions League, you have to say you are a big candidate. You have to win.

Mourinho: Darmian wants to leave

Hendrix knightsmith July 26, 2018
Mourinho would be the last person i'd ask about investing money !
But yes, Klopp is a hypocrite
WeAreUnited July 26, 2018
Well said Jose well said
Klopp what can you say, he backtracked, ate his words and now is suddenly a changed man!!
ScholesScoresGoals July 26, 2018
What's funnier is that he talks about 'changing opinions', as if what he said originally wasn't some attempt to set out his fundamental footballing principles - an adherence to old school philosophies - to endear himself to LFC fans (and the football world in general).
No, Jurgen, it wasn't a throwaway comment, don't act like it was. You've been found out, mate.
Ezzerguru July 26, 2018
Ok great. We all agree about Klopp but where does Jose stand on 'us' winning things, especially the big two trophies.
Zana July 26, 2018
Klopp is hypocrite as Trevor said!!
What cracked me up though was Jose's dig at Ashley Young, earlier in his press conference.
Mobi July 26, 2018
What did he say?
When one of the journalist asked him about Valencia'a fitness and availability of alternative right back, Jose replied in a more saryrical tone that Young is still in holiday, and he doesnt fancy when he will be back from holiday.. that was funny indeed.
CarrickLegend16 July 26, 2018
He wasn't having a dig. He was saying AY is an option if he chooses to cut short his holiday otherwise Darmian will be an important player.
His quote
"Ashley Young is a possibility to play right-back, but is on holiday. I don't know if he fancies to be back for that and put himself to be available for the team or stay on holiday"
"Victor Lindelof is a possibility, he is not a right-back but is a possibility, he starts training next Monday. I will send people to Manchester to train with Victor, it makes no sense for him to come to the United States.
So if Matteo leaves he leaves because the right offer arrives and if he stays, yes you are right, he can be important for us."
I'm not sure if Young has a choice, the PFA insists the players have minimum 3 weeks (21 days) off. That is why Fred can only join training tomorrow as he has been out for 20 days.
C16,
But Fred (if he exists) didn't even kick a ball .
Pansies, the lot of them !
CarrickLegend16
Correct that is the quote, but if you listen to hos tone of his voice there is something of crtical and satyrical purpose of his talk, it seems always like a dig for the absentee of Ashley Young... it might be my own psychoanalytic perspective for Jose, but anyway it sounds funny...
Is Mou fucking daft? He's asking one of the oldest, most injury-prone players in the squad to come back early from holiday after his first full season in ages and a good WC run ... all to fulfill some false sense of commitment to the cause?
You couldn't make it up.
Ashley mate, if by some insane chance you're reading this, stay on holiday - you've earned it.

Q: How to change multiple same name input element in Wordpress post with jQuery? I can change Wordpress input element with different name. As for example the following input element:
<input class="wpProQuiz_button" type="button" value="Start Quiz" name="startQuiz">

can be changed with the following jQuery code:
jQuery("input[name='startQuiz']").attr("value", "Start Mock Test");

Question:
How can I do the same for the following with  same name input element in Wordpress?
<input type="button" name="next" value="Next" class="wpProQuiz_button wpProQuiz_QuestionButton" style="float: right;">

<input type="button" name="next" value="Quiz-summary" class="wpProQuiz_button wpProQuiz_QuestionButton" style="float: right;">

I have use the following for the above two input element like :
jQuery("input[name='next']").attr("value", "Next");
jQuery("input[name='next']").attr("value", "Test-summary");

But it is not working. How can I do this?

A: use jQuery selectors:
jQuery("input[name='next']:first-child").val("zzzz");
jQuery("input[name='next']:nth-child(2)").val("qqqqq");
and take in mind "float:right" :)

1. Player agency is key to telling compelling game narratives; however, designers must offer choices that make sense in relation to the player's gameplay and narrative decisions thus far.
2. The player should also have opportunities to evolve their personality as the game goes along—but they should have to work for character change.


In the world of competitive stepping, they are the team to beat. Off stage, the Gentlemen of Vision are growing up in struggling working class suburbs. Ferguson is their backyard and their reality. In many ways, they are like countless kids from tough homes and neighborhoods, but they have a bond, a brotherhood, and a leader whose dedication is rock solid but his love is tough. Gentlemen of Vision founder Marlon Wharton has built the team's winning tradition by acting as both stepping coach and life coach. He demands from them time, discipline, good grades, and a clear plan for a future after graduation. The film depicts the struggles and successes of team members during GOV's 2015-16 season. For many, this is their senior year; as steppers their goal is to win the two major national competitions; as young men, their goal is to survive and move on to achieve their dreams.

International Visitors Programme Encounters with Dutch design
Rashiq Fataar (South-Africa) / September 2014
Rashiq Fataar inside The New Pavilion
In collaboration with the Consulate General in Cape Town and the INTI (International New Town Institute), Rashiq Fataar from South Africa was invited to the Netherlands to expand his network and gain new ideas and knowledge.

Rashiq Fataar about his visit
Q: What is the aim of your visit to The Netherlands?
A: My aim of this visit is multiple, but my particular aim is to learn how to build Future Cape Town in the next few years as an institution, and to be exposed to the innovative approaches of different organisations. Ultimately this may be in the form of building last collaborations and partnerships with experienced, and established Dutch organisations and person in the urbanism sphere.
Q: What is your view on current Dutch urban development and architecture. What insight do you bring back?
A: Design in all its forms is respected in Dutch society, and is embedded in urban development and architecture. The way in which research by design , while a newer approach, has openly tackled challenges is something I hope to bring back. In South Africa we should begin by building a larger understanding of the need for design in improving our cities and communities, and research by design has the opportunity to build greater awareness of the role all parts of society can play and inspire people about the future of their city.
Q: What can you say about state of urban development in your country at this moment, are their differences, similarities with Dutch urban development?
A: I think South Africa has learnt from the first two decades of democracy and has made significant inroads to provide basic services and infrastructure to those excluded for decades by apartheid. However, South African cities remain fragmented, disjointed and unequal and a major shift in how a city is planned and developed will need to be implemented in the coming decade. The Dutch urban development has shown many innovative ways that government can begin to achieve its goal with different parts of society, working collaboratively to tackle urban development challenges e.g. the relation between IABR and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Environment, such that tackling challenges uses design in a genuine way.
We know that cities are the future and that people have a key role to play, and it will ultimately be strength of collaborations and shared knowledge that will jointly building better cities in South Africa and the Netherlands. We now have to go beyond borders and work together to understand the needs of different cities in a cooperative rather than a competitive way.
Q: Any specific projects, buildings or people who you have encountered during your visit to the Netherlands that made a lasting impression on you and why?
A: I was inspired by all of my meetings with people and organisations thus far, in terms of their approach to design, their processes and how their institution relates to each other parts and sectors of society. Pakhuis de Zwigjer resonated with the way Future Cape Town hopes to work in future, and their ability to use different platforms, techniques and approach to broader the dialogue about city development. I have always been a fan of OMA/AMO, and I am inspired by their range of work around the world, and specifically how AMO have worked on master plans for different cities with different issues. In terms of my work own work, meeting ZUS and learning about their approach to urbanism, and placemaking was inspirational useful to begin to apply in Cape Town.
Q: What would you like to achieve in five years and how can this visit contribute?
A: Over 5 years we are aiming to build a more sustainable organisation, which can play a more pro-active and strategic role in the urban development of Cape Town and other cities, expanding opportunities for citizens to become a part of the process to improve the future of their city.

Go Home, Sarah Palin. You're Drunk.
Former Alaska governor and current ??? Sarah Palin, who has a rare condition that renders her incapable of improvement, appeared on Megyn Kelly's show on Fox News yesterday. And it was... even more of a shitshow than most Sarah Palin appearances. Even Megyn Kelly — tough, no-nonsense host Megyn Kelly — had trouble reining her in. Let's watch.
Here's just part of Palin's completely incomprehensible rant in response Kelly's opening question. For your convenience, I've bolded the winning Wingnut Bingo words in case you're playing along at home.
Palin: AS FOR ECONOMIC COMPETITORS! Corporate tax rate, the second highest in the industrialized world. Now that empowers our competitors.
If you haven't won BINGO after that you should request a new card.
Palin's always been fast and loose with both grammar and facts, but does it seem like she's even more, uh, unhinged than she was when she first barged onto the national scene in 2008?
She's like what happens when you put a bunch of paranoid right wing talking points in the microwave and then accidentally hit 10:00 instead of 1:00 and then you walk away and forget about it and 6 minutes later, you're like what's burning? OH NOOO! and you run to the kitchen and your delicious Annie's Organic Mac N' Crazy has turned into molten hot inedible magma.
You guys, John McCain thought she'd make a good Vice President. Remember when his campaign team spent a weekend trying to help her cram for her debate with Joe Biden? In retrospect, that doomed effort seems almost adorably naive. Sarah Palin, frowning with concentration over index cards containing facts she'd never learn. Even 5 years later. God. What a world.

As I sit writing this, I am surrounded by a kitchen which has been pulled apart. Units have been removed and the contents of these strew here, there and everywhere. Deciding to refurbish the kitchen was such a great idea at the time. Now, I'm not so sure!
Up to now, cooking in the kitchen hasn't been an issue, despite the mess. However, the stove and oven will soon be removed which could have potentially left us in a pickle. One thing we didn't want to do, during this time, is to turn to ready meals and take aways. A slow cooker was one option but we're not the most organised so we wanted an option that didn't need planning hours in advance. That's where the Sensio Home Steamer came in handy.
The Sensio Home Steamer is a stainless steel food steamer with 3 stackable pans. Allowing up to 60 minutes cooking time, an assortment of meat, fish, vegetables and rice can be cooked healthily, maintaining nutrition and flavour.
With a capacity of 6.8L, the steamer is ideal for family meals. You can cook the whole meal together to save time. Alternatively, add the tiered pans one by one. The pans can even be stored in the fridge or freezer ready for cooking.
To begin using the steamer, pour water into the base. There are min/max water line indicators and the booklet included will help decide how much water you need.
Once you've filled the base, you are ready to go. There is no heating time needed. Just set the dial for the amount of cooking time required and the steam starts immediately. I found this extremely handy because it saved waiting time.
As I was cooking vegetables which needed different amounts of cooking time, I stacked my pans one by one. I have to admit, I was a bit scared removing the lid to add the next pan but the steam did not pour out like I expected. Although, do remember to use a towel or oven gloves!
Once the time runs out, the dial should sound a bell. Personally, I wouldn't rely on hearing the bell as for somebody with partial hearing, the bell was non-existent. I asked my husband, the ears of our house, what he thought of the bell and his response – "what bell?" – says it all! However, this is a very small niggle.
The majority of the food cooked perfectly. It was the correct texture and had kept its flavour. I even felt that the carrots tasted better than when we boil them. However, the asparagus was a little on the…floppy side. Three out of four ain't bad though!
Cleaning the pans was straight forward and took no effort at all. And there is a removable drip tray for easy cleaning. They're dishwasher friendly too. The only issue for me was the heating device in the base. Living in an area with hard water, the heater ended up covered in limescale which took a little more effort to get off.
Once finished with, the steamer can be collapsed so that it is compact and stored away easily.
I was a little bit sceptical about the Sensio Home Steamer as I had read a couple of negative reviews. Having tested it myself, I have to say I disagree with these. The steamer was sturdy, easy to use and worked a treat. I loved that I could easily store it away and that the pans were robust (I accidentally dropped one and it survived unscathed!).
The steamer offers a great alternative for healthy cooking!
Tip: Add chicken broth, white wine, herbs or spices before steaming to add flavour to your food.

Bingham Set To Keep Central Midfield Place
Boss impressed with Billy's Luton performance
Crewe Alexandra boss Steve Davis has suggested that midfielder Billy Bingham will retain his place in the starting XI.
The midfielder made his first start at Luton at the weekend since the defeat at Cheltenham at the end of August & impressed as The Alex gained a valuable draw at the much-fancied Hatters.
Bingham came into the side after James Jones left the camp to link-up with Scotland Under 21's for their double-header & the boss has hinted that Jonah may have a battle on his hands to get back into the side.
Steve said: "Billy did well on Saturday & has done enough to keep his place. I don't envisage any changes in that department.
"I told Jonah before he left that I was pleased for him getting the call-up, but that he could come back & not have a place. He understood that & said it's fine & that he was prepared to fight for his place.
"That's the sort of attitude we want, but he understood by going & being away that if somebody came into the side & did well then they would stay in the team.
"That's just me. I always think that if you play well then you deserve to stay in the team. I have no favouritism with anybody."

Adelaide has had many nicknames over the years, from 'the Athens of the south' (a nod to the Mediterranean climate and lifestyle) to 'the 20-minute city' (because getting around just isn't a problem). Adelaide is also famous as Australia's home to great food, the arts and new ideas.
What visitors most notice, however, is the sense of light and space, and the range of things you can do in a day without feeling rushed. That's what makes Adelaide a great convention city, and why both Lonely Planet and The New York Times rated it in the top 10 places to see in 2015.
It's an easy city to enjoy, whether you prefer five-star dining, quirky laneway bars, exploring the bustling Central Market, cycling in the parklands, strolling in the picturesque Adelaide Hills or relaxing on a stretch of white sandy beach just 20 minutes (that figure again) from the CBD.

The town of Sitges is located 37 km to the south of Barcelona, and its beaches and streets retain the beauty that inspired a whole generation of catalan artists in the late 19th century. We recommend you visit the modernista-style mansions and museums, and soak up the atmosphere of its pavement cafés and leisure attractions.
Terrassa, 28 Km west of Barcelona, modernista architects created factories and public buildings, as well as luxurious houses. The town has transformed its industrial past into museums and tourist trails. Sant Llorenç del Munt Natural Park is located just 5 Km from the town centre.
In the city's old harbour, the Port Vell, L'Aquàrium de Barcelona is the world's most important marine leisure and education centre dedicated to Mediterranean undersea life.
Standing on La Rambla, the Gran Teatre del Liceu has been an important hub for the arts and social and political movements in Barcelona during the different phases in its chequered history. However, it has always reemerged, more splendid than ever. We invite you to discover its thrilling history!

Q: How to avoid TypeScript modules resolving from parent directories of the project instead of node_modules? I have a module that is installed in node_modules, and want to import a file from it.
I also have a locally installed version of this module in a parent directory to the one where my project is.
For some reason, when I do import { something } from 'my-module/myFile', it actually resolves it not by going in node_modules, but by taking my local version of that module that is stored somewhere else in my machine, in a parent directory.
Why does TypeScript resolves modules outside of the directory it's being built in? How could it even find my module outside of its own folder and not just find it in node modules?

A: Starting with ECMAScript 2015, JavaScript has a concept of modules. TypeScript shares this concept.
Modules import one another using a module loader. At runtime the module loader is responsible for locating and executing all dependencies of a module before executing it. Well-known modules loaders used in JavaScript are the CommonJS module loader for Node.js and require.js for Web applications.
You mention node_modules so I'm guessing you are using Node.js. "moduleResolution": "node" in your tsconfig.json file.
From Node.js docs:

If the module identifier passed to require() is not a core module, and
does not begin with '/', '../', or './', then Node.js starts at the
parent directory of the current module, and adds /node_modules, and
attempts to load the module from that location. Node will not append
node_modules to a path already ending in node_modules.

And for file modules:

If the exact filename is not found, then Node.js will attempt to load
the required filename with the added extensions: .js, .json, and
finally .node.
TypeScript overlays the TypeScript source file extensions (.ts, .tsx,
and .d.ts) over the Node's resolution logic.

Make sure that you are using it correctly.

A: When you import from npm, you can't import by a file name (unless you write the full path starting with ./node_modules... don't), only by package. It doesn't find one so it falls back to looking for a local file instead.
So assuming you have an actual package my-module in node_modules which has an entry point (main in package.json), which says export something, then import {something} from 'my-module' should do the trick.

Review: Where It Began by Ann Redisch Stampler
Title: Where It Began
Author: Ann Redisch Stampler
Publisher: Simon Pulse
Category: Contemporary
Release date: March 6th, 2012
Pages: 370 (e-galley)
Source: PulseIt
Sometimes the end is just the beginning.
Gabby lived under the radar until her makeover. Way under. But when she started her senior year as a blonder, better-dressed version of herself, she struck gold: Billy Nash believed she was a the flawless girl she was pretending to be. The next eight months with Billy were bliss...Until the night Gabby woke up on the ground next to the remains of his BMW without a single memory of how she got there.
And Billy's nowhere to be found.
All Gabby wants is to make everything perfect again. But getting her life back isn't difficult, it's impossible. Because nothing is the same, and Gabby's beginning to realize she's missed more than a few danger signs along the way.
It's time for Gabby to face the truth, even if it means everything changes.
I really thought that this was going to be a book I'd enjoy. I loved the summary because it makes the story sound like it's full of twists and turns, but as it turns out, not everything is what it seems. I got bored with Where It Began after the first few chapters, which mainly took place in the hospital. It felt that everything was moving very slowly; much too slow to make me want to read more, so I took a break. After reading two other books, I decided to come back to it, but this time, it was the same. Honestly, I just read it to get it over with.
For one, I didn't really like any of the characters mentioned in the story. Oh wait, maybe Huey's mom, who is mentioned twice, at most. Other than that, they all got under my skin. Gabby was so incredibly naive (and not the lovable kind, either) until the very end. Once we find out what really happened, which wasn't very shocking, the story begins to pick up...and then it ends.
Though there were many things that bothered me about the story, the number one reason I gave this book 2 stars is because of Gabby. I couldn't relate to her at all and I don't know anyone else who could. Stampler tried to make her sound sarcastic and witty (which I usually love) but it came off as bitchy and annoying. She brushes off the fact that Billy's a self-absorbed asshole who tries to control her just because he told her that he loved her. Gabby wasn't strong. She just wasn't the main character I'd hope to learn more about.
I feel like the Where It Began could have been done so much better and I do still enjoy the thought that went into the plot of the story, but it didn't live up to my expectations. That being said, the book was just okay. I wouldn't read it again and it definitely won't make it onto my list of books to recommend.

This is the first review I've read for this book and I was actually looking forward to reading it. But to me, judging by your review, it sounds like a library read . . . it's hard when you can't connect to any character. Great and honest review!

On Exhibit: The Patriot Act
September 8, 2016 September 15, 2016 by Jessie Kratz, posted in U.S. House, U.S. Senate
Today's post comes from Andrew Grafton in the National Archives History Office
New York, NY, Sept. 14, 2001 — New York City firefighters and emergency personnel conduct response operations at Ground Zero following the attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. (National Archives Identifier 24476901)
October 2001, Washington, DC.
The United States has recently been attacked by terrorists intent on killing American citizens and striking a blow against U.S. morale in the fight against terror. Millions are afraid that a further attack is imminent. The public is adamant that the federal government take action.
Out of this environment of fear, and a desire for increased national security, the Patriot Act was born.
In the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States and the September–October 2001 anthrax mail scare, public apprehension about the potential for further threats was at an all-time high.
As a result of these concerns, Congress proposed several bills to strengthen the power of federal law enforcement to preemptively apprehend terror plots. The ultimate goal was to ensure that terror threats like those on 9/11 would be detected by federal law enforcement agencies.
The first bill to make it to the floor of Congress was the so-called Combating Terrorism Act of 2001, proposed by Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) on September 19, and sponsored by a bipartisan coalition of U.S. senators.
President George W. Bush meets with the National Security Council on the morning of Thursday, September 20, 2001, in the Situation Room of the White House. Meeting with the President are, from left to right, FBI Director Robert Mueller (along the wall); Vice President Cheney's Chief of Staff Lewis Libby; CIA Director George Tenet; Attorney General John Ashcroft; Secretary of Treasury Paul O'Neill; Vice President Dick Cheney; Secretary of State Colin Powell; Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld; and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen.

The act would have made it easier for the President to mobilize the National Guard, and would have given the CIA greater authority to expand counterintelligence networks. However, the amendment was ultimately deemed not strong enough to deal with the threats at hand.
Subsequently, the House of Representatives proposed a similar but primarily monetary-based solution, the Financial Anti-Terrorism Act, which was also proposed during mid-September of that year. The act would have tightened restrictions on money laundering and forfeiture. Though not enacted as a separate law, many portions of the bill were eventually incorporated into the Patriot Act.
An Act to deter and punish terrorist acts in the U.S. and around the world and to enhance law enforcement investigatory tools, 10/26/2001, [The Patriot Act]. (General Records of the United States Government, National Archives)
A version of the Patriot Act was officially proposed on the House floor on October 2, 2001, and was passed just 10 days later. A version of the bill was approved by the Senate, but the two chambers failed to reconcile their differences.
After further negotiation and amendment, the reconciled USA Patriot Act was introduced to the House on October 23 and received the necessary votes with little delay. The Senate also took quick action on the bill, and it landed on the President's desk with votes of 357-66 and 98-1, respectively.
President George W. Bush signed the Patriot Act into law on October 26, 2001. Upon his signature, revisions were made to 10 different chapters of the United States Code, particularly those related to surveillance, wiretapping, and other counterintelligence measures.
In the years following its enactment, the Patriot Act has come under harsh scrutiny from the American public for its potential to invade personal privacy rights. Accordingly, several suits have been filed by groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Privacy Information Center.
Efforts to repeal portions of the Patriot Act have found some success, as many provisions from the act that required phone companies to turn over records of their customers have been declared unconstitutional.
However, several portions of the law have been renewed. The act was wholly extended in July 2005 with additional authorizations for the NSA. On March 8, 2006, President Bush signed another reauthorization of the Patriot Act. The 2006 act amended some parts of the NSA wiretapping capabilities but kept the majority of the law intact.
Many portions of the Patriot Act expired on June 1, 2015. Yet, following the passage of the USA Freedom Act on June 2 of that year, parts of the Patriot Act remain in effect into 2019.
The National Archives is commemorating the 15th year anniversary of the Patriot Act by displaying the original in the Rubenstein Gallery of the National Archives Building in Washington, DC starting September 15, 2016.
Come visit the National Archives and see a piece of history for yourself!

Looking for a great way to improve your home and avoid moving, then York Second Story Addition is a great way to go. Over time, the average family does tend to outgrow the size of their current house. There are plenty of reasons for this. Another baby, kids that grow old enough to stop sharing a room, the need for space for fitness or other recreational hobbies or the desire to add a master bedroom suite or in-law suite are all good examples. While a second story addition can be a great benefit to you and your family, the consequences of hiring the wrong contractor can be disastrous. Call Red Oak Remodeling first and see the difference a professional can make.
While adding an additional story is more extensive and expensive than adding a custom room, it can make a lot more sense. This not only gives you the space you need now but also gives you a chance to grow and expand in the future. Not to mention, while there is more of an upfront investment, there is also the potential for a much better return because this increases the property value of your home a great deal. If you are considering adding a second story to your home call our York Remodeling Contractor to have the job done right!
Of course a job like York Second Stories is nothing that should be done by someone lacking the essential credentials. While any remodeling job should be carried out by a true professional, it is especially important when it comes to anything that could compromise the structural integrity of your house. The process is complex because it involves actually raising the roof in order to take care of the improvement.
Of course then you also have to allow room for a staircase. The electrical and plumbing must be enhanced which means making sure your current system can generate enough for a bigger house. If not, you will have to update and upgrade this as well. The good news is that by working with the Red Oak Remodeling crew you get a team that already knows all of the ins and outs of this type of work.
Don't let the idea of adding another story scare you. But also don't keep settling for less home than you want or need to have. We can help you finally have all the house you want without having to sell your home and move to another. The work we carry out is also so flawless you will never be able to tell that a second story was added on.
So let's get started today. We look forward to being the team you come to rely on for all of your remodeling tasks, including a York Second Story Addition. We can show you all of the exciting ideas and options that you have available and even assist in helping you make the best choices possible.
If you are looking for a Second Story Addition in York then please call 717-244-4711 or complete our online request form.

John Steiner (7 January 1941 – 31 July 2022) was an English actor. Tall, thin and gaunt, he attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and performed on-stage for the Royal Shakespeare Company, but was best known to audiences for his roles in Italian films, several of which became cult classics.

Early life and acting career
Steiner was born in Chester, Cheshire on January 7, 1941. He attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and joined the Royal Shakespeare Company. He acted in the role of Monsieur Dupere in Peter Brook's production of Marat/Sade. He reprised the role when the play was transferred to Broadway, and again for the 1967 film adaptation.

He found work primarily in films including and the original Bedazzled (1967) with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. In 1969, Steiner was hired to play a part in the Spaghetti Western Tepepa, and also appeared opposite Franco Nero in White Fang, directed by Lucio Fulci. In 1971 he starred in the television series Hine. In 1979 he featured in the leading role of Leo in a television production of Design for Living by Noël Coward.

He found himself in demand in Italy and moved there, appearing in a great number of Italian exploitation and B-films including police actioners (Violent Rome), westerns (Mannaja), war films (The Last Hunter), nazisploitation (Deported Women of the SS Special Section), sci-fi adventure films (Yor, the Hunter from the Future), and horror films, such as Mario Bava's Shock, Dario Argento's Tenebrae, and Ruggero Deodato's Body Count. He also became a favourite of famed Italian filmmaker Tinto Brass, featuring in Salon Kitty, the infamous Caligula, Action, and Paprika. He remained in steady demand until the late 1980s.

Retirement and later life
As the Italian film industry dwindled, Steiner retired from acting in 1991 and moved to California, where he became a successful real estate agent. Steiner later contributed to DVD extras on some of his films and gave interviews about his Italian work.

Personal life
Steiner was bisexual. During the 1960s he was in a long-term relationship with director John Schlesinger and became the basis for the character Bob Elkin (played by Murray Head) in Schlesinger's semi-autobiographical film Sunday Bloody Sunday.

He later married, and is survived by his wife of over 30 years

In addition to English, Steiner spoke French, Italian, and German.

Death
Steiner died in a car crash in La Quinta, California, on 31 July 2022, at the age of 81.

Olivia Newton-John's Famous 'Grease' Outfits Are Up For Auction, Including Those Iconic Pants
by Angela Andaloro
It's been 41 years since Olivia Newton-John graced our screens as Sandy Olsson in Grease. The memories of the film, for both Olivia and her fans, are still very fresh.
Who among us could forget the iconic outfits she donned? Now those outfits are going up for auction for a good cause.
"This is the big item, and I want all you museums to be bidding against each other," Olivia laughed as she stood next to the leather jacket and skintight pants her character wore for her end-of-film bad girl transformation. The scene was shot in 102-degree weather during a heatwave, so the jacket had to be removed between takes.
The pants also have a special story to them.
"They had to stitch me into them and I had to shoot," Olivia recalled. "So the zipper is still broken, but they're fabulous."
The 71-year-old was all smiles and spirit, showing her strength despite battling cancer for the third time. The actress said she's "feeling great." "It's been an interesting year," she explained. "It's been a year of healing."
Olivia was diagnosed with a tumor in her lower back, landing her in her namesake hospital for treatment on her 70th birthday. There, she got to see firsthand what she helped create with the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre. It only makes sense for the proceeds from the auction to go right back into the treatment center.
The auction takes place on November 2 in Beverly Hills at Julien's Auctions, but you can also bid on the over 400 personal items she's listed online.


I recently got engaged to a handsome young man who surprised me with a beautiful ring. After all the celebrations and congratulations, you chuckle with your fiancé because you can now call them your fiancé. Then reality sinks in. I realise we actually have to start planning our wedding eventually. What do I wear? Do I break out with some karaoke? A group dance? So many questions.
I think I'm a bit too organised for my own good since it's a while away. But alas, I love planning it's so fun. So I have asked friends and people for advice on what on earth I am doing! Along with some tips to move you closer to that dream wedding. In no particular order here are a few things which have helped me so far.
Will it be a grand ordeal or small and intimate? What budget do you need to get your perfect wedding? Taking into account the good old honeymoon afterward as well and traveling expenses. I can imagine trying to stick to a budget will save stress later on. Hopefully.
The big question is who to ask to be a bridesmaid or the best man. I definitely included my sister and also best friends who always have my back. These are the people who can listen to you stress out about wedding madness. Or asking them out of a hundred dresses which one looks the best. Then come the fun times like the hens night, cute bridesmaid gift bags, and getting ready for the day. Fabulous.
Whether it's a large wedding or a small one, narrowing down your close friends and family can help decide what kind of venue you might like. When picking your list think of whether you've spoken to them in a year. Has your fiancé met them before? Although it's tempting to invite everyone you've known since 2001 on Facebook try to think of who you're closest to. Also, are you wanting children at the wedding? I have seen a few toddlers running around at previous weddings screaming. Not ideal, but to avoid feelings getting hurt, try to organise babysitting in advance for the young ones.
Once you've decided on a day and a date now it's time to pick the venue. Deciding can be a tricky one. One thing I've tried is to email the top three places myself and my fiancé like. Then wait for the response of the packages they offer. You may need a different location for your ceremony and reception, or if it's in the same place, even better!
This is one of the hardest things we've found so far. Out of thousands of photographers who is the best one who can capture those magical moments? Depending on your style, staged dramatic poses, or more natural, this can help you choose someone who might be a good fit. Think of the theme, mood, and colour of the photos. Who stands out? Then message your top picks!
If you aren't using Instagram whilst planning a wedding, get amongst. Basically, I've started searching for bridal shops and photographers through Instagram. The more pages I follow relating to weddings the better. I've had so many sponsored adverts from wedding content which means I can research even more and stalk amazing photographers. YES. This is also how I came across our engagement photo shoot photographer!
Event: Heartfelt Weddings Showcase, at the Cordis in Auckland April 8th. Free entry but you do need to RSVP.
Event: Bride and Groom Wedding Expo in Auckland, Ellerslie Racecourse, 6th May.
Event: The Taranaki Weddings Show 2018, June 10th. Tickets cost about $20 – early bird tickets are $17.
Take along a trusted friend or family member to try dresses with you so you can get a second opinion. I bought one of my best friends to help me with mine. While there are lovely dresses, quite often other people will have worn them as well or similar. I'm getting mine custom made which is exciting (it'll have to be a surprise). If you're looking for a few ideas in Auckland check out Rue De Seine, Alma J Boutique, and Hera Couture. Most bridal shops do charge a fee to try on dresses ranging from $50-$75 for about an hour session.
If you're into vintage or quirky items to include at your wedding such as little signs, things on the table, there are some really cool websites which don't require a massive budget. DIY wedding shop has small things here and there. My wedding store is also a good one they sell wedding bubbles. Perfect.
If you aren't getting a wedding planner it can help to get a little wedding book which has all the details you'll need and checklists as well. Plus, it can help to create a wedding website so you have all of your guests in one place, accommodation for people who may be travelling, and cute photos of course. Check out minted, it's a great platform to use and free.
Also, subscribing to wedding magazines can help with inspiration like New Zealand Wedding Magazine. They have great blogs on there, competitions and style ideas. Asking family or friends for advice can help you not panic as well especially if they've already walked down the aisle.
There are many things to put together for a wedding. The marriage license, catering, makeup – ahh! Which we will worry about closer to the time. One key thing I guess is don't do it all by yourself. Enjoy the journey because the day will be a wonderful celebration with close friends and family. Oh and lots of food. Getting to show your love for each other and feeling like a princess in that dress. The countdown begins.


"You sunk my battleship." Chances are, you've said those words at least once in your lifetime. (many more, perhaps, if you were a kid before there were video games). If you are ready to teach the next generation of armchair naval combatants the rules of the classic Battleship board game, you'll find the instructions below.
Place the game board on a table or some other sturdy surface and sit across from your opponent. The bottom half of the folding board is your ocean grid, while the raised half is the target grid. Set your ships up strategically (and secretly) on your ocean grid.
Ships can be placed in a horizontal or vertical position anywhere within the grid.
No part of the ship can be out of the grid, nor can they overlap in any position with another ship. They can be next to each other, as long as their grid positions do not overlap.
You may not place ships diagonally within the grid.
Ship placement is permanent and cannot be changed once the game has started.
Hits occur when the called shot hits any part of an enemy vessel. A miss occurs when the shot misses all enemy vessels.
Track your hits and misses on your target grid, using red pegs for hits and white pegs for misses.
If your vessel is hit, track the hit by placing a red peg in the hole corresponding to the shot.
A ship has been sunk when all of it's holes have been filled with red hit pegs. The owener of the ship must announce when a ship has been sunk ("You sunk my Battleship!").
After a hit or miss has been determined, play passes to the other player who then calls their shot in the same manner.
The first player to sink the entire enemy fleet wins the game.
Once you've mastered the standard rules, try the Salvo variant. For Salvo, all rules are the same as the regular game with the exception of shot-calling. Instead of calling only one shot, call five shots at a time, marking them on your target board with white pegs (swap out white pegs for red on your hits). Your opponent responds by stating your hits and misses, including naming the type of vessels which were struck.
Whenever one of your ships is sunk, you lose a shot for each ship that has been sunk, so the game gets progressively more difficult as your fleet shrinks in size.
