During the process of creating a web design for a client, we are almost always asked if we do computer repairs or computer network troubleshooting or virus removal or something along those lines. Although we know a little about handling those types of requests and we always try to help our clients with their problems, those fields are certainly not within our area of expertise.
So, in an effort to provide our clients with enhanced, comprehensive technical service, I have been looking around for just the right person to handle everything from network administration and computer repair to installation of printers and virus removal.
I am proud to announce that Jaredd Bell will make a perfect fit for this position. He and I have been working together on several projects for the past month or so and he has certainly impressed me with his abilities but most importantly with his attention to detail and superior customer service.
Our clients can rest assured that they will receive the same level of professionalism and quality that they have come to expect from Crystal Coast Technologies, Inc. In fact, here is a testimonial from one of our first clients that have taken advantage of our new service.
In the past, Jaredd served as Network Administrator for Marine Federal Credit Union in Jacksonville NC and IT Administrator for Atex Technologies in Pinehurst NC.
We are going to offer on-site computer tech support, including things like PC cleanup, computer hardware installation, network troubleshooting, and data backup solutions from New Bern to Emerald Isle and Morehead City to Jacksonville, NC. If you are out of that area, please contact us because we may still be able to travel to your location or, we are setup with the ability to access your computer remotely and can fix many issues that way. See our price list (opens in PDF) for a complete breakdown of what we offer and the costs.
If you want more details or to setup and appointment, contact us for all the details.


There is really only one reason why Richard Taylor and David Wood's 2011 theatrical version of the 1953 L.P. Hartley novel, The Go-Between, should be occupying a commercial theatre on Shaftesbusy Avenue, and it can be neatly summed up in two words: 'Michael' and 'Crawford'.
Without the attachment, and indeed apparent championing, of this genuine theatrical giant (who for some unknown reason still doesn't have a knighthood) I doubt it would have got within fifty miles of a London theatre.
You see the problem is, for all its charm, and an excellent cast, it's just not a musical.
OK, it is on a stage, and people are singing, and there's music, but structurally this is a play, and as a play shorn of the additional elements of music and singing it would probably make a perfectly acceptable – and I suspect faithful – adaptation of the source material.
However, musicals operate on a higher plane, and the work involved in turning the source material into a functioning piece of musical theatre is far greater than simply setting all the dialogue to music.
That work just hasn't been done here.
Instead what we're left with is an evening of often beautifully sung vocal arrangements seamlessly stitched together – the show is almost completely through-sung, with a few dialogue scenes – which pass before our eyes without ever being particularly engaging.
Rather like looking out of a train window as you travel through East Anglia: the view's lovely but featureless and, after a while, just a bit…well…boring.
The story concerns a sixty-three year old man, Leo Colston (Michael Crawford, seventy-four but for some reason playing it like he's eighty) who 'for a reason never fully explained'– to quote the show that made him a worldwide star – goes off into the attic and starts rummaging through a trunk, coming upon his diary from fifty years previously when he was thirteen and spent three weeks at a country estate in Norfolk and acted as the titular messenger between two illicit lovers, Marian (Gemma Sutton), and the socially-unsuitable-but-attractive-when-wet-in-a-Mr-Darcy-way local farmer, Ted (Stuart Ward).
The story then skips back and forth between the older Leo, and his young self (alternating with young players but portrayed at this performance by the astonishingly good William Thompson who at thirteen is already a fine singing actor).
The younger Leo (who 'for a reason never fully explained' has a copy of the same diary in his pocket which is half the size of that the older Leo takes from his trunk) interacts with the family at 'the big house' on the estate as the older Leo either watches – Crawford is on stage in almost every scene – commenting on the action, interacts with his younger self or, rather confusingly, 'for a reason never fully explained', argues with him.
Anyway, what happens, happens. I won't give away the plot. Let's just say there are some inconsistencies of time and tense which don't help with the narrative and when 'the big event' occurs (off stage!) you'll forget about what's happening on stage anyway and spend two minutes trying to figure out exactly what it was.
The whole is accompanied by Musical Director Nigel Lilley on an on-stage grand piano which I at first thought I'd grow to dislike, but actually works very well. The music is simultaneously ever-present and unobtrusive which focuses you back onto the characters although this only serves to point up the fact that without the dramaturgical work having been done to turn this play into a musical, you don't really have any emotional capital invested in any of them. One observes without feeling engaged.
The set is static, and as my partner pointed out, is strikingly similar to that used in the 2008 Michael Legrand musical, Marguerite, which played for a few months and closed early at The Haymarket. That was a stinker. This isn't a stinker, just a disappointment.
Cast includes: Michael Crawford, Gemma Sutton, Stuart Wood, Issy Van Randwyck, Stephen Carlile, Julian Forsyth, John Addison, Jenni Bowden, Silan Wyatt-Barke, and alternating child actors.

Ripen Late Season Tomatoes on the Vine
This is interesting. British gardening expert Chris Beardshaw how you ripen tomatoes on the vine after lifting the plants. This short video (1:12) shows Chris clearing a glasshouse at the end of the growing season. There are still many green fruits on the vines.
Nothing wrong with leaving the green fruits in a bowl with a banana to make them ripen, or leaving it on a windowsill. But according to Chris, nothing tastes quite as good as tomatoes ripened on the vine. He offers an alternative: ripening the fruit on a vine which has been remove the soil.
Chris heads for the shed, where he hangs the plant upside down. The theory is that the moisture and nutrients from the plant will filter down the plant and somehow get to the fruit. It's worth a try if you want to make the most of a vine that you have dug up but which still has green fruit on it.


The "I Told You So" Moment….
The research is clear…."The latest findings from Technorati's 2013 Digital Influence Report show that "consumers are turning to blogs when looking to make a purchase." The full report is worth your time to read!
So this is a "shout-out" to all the bloggers out there…..Keep sharing great content! You have influence! People are listening and responding!
My name is Tom Burns, and I'm proud to be part of the blogging community! Connect with me on various social media channels at http://www.kimtag.com/nashvillesmart Seller of things essential to life as we know it…..
One of my co-workers found this video and shared it in our sales meeting this morning. I laughed all the way through it! And everyone else did too!
Then the fun started…. All day long my co-workers would say "Tom Burns" in a funny voice as they passed me on the sales floor. Some of them have android or iphones, so with "hand in pocket" they would be standing near me and press "play" on the video and I would start hearing my name!
Of course, as soon as the meeting ended I immediately posted the video to twitter, facebook, and linkedin, and e-mailed it to my family!
What a great way to help people remember you! Can you think of ways you might use such a video?


In Gramarye, where everyone who is anyone is a witch, and where Rod Gallowglass has only just begun to learn of the awesome powers he possesses, a battle between worlds has begun In the fight to preserve freedom, Rod is about to learn if his strength will be enough to save his precious world and all democracy from destruction Reissue.
Fun addition to " Spite of Himself" and the start of a lengthy series with several spawns. "Start" because while The Warlock in Spite of Himself was first, and A Wizard in Bedlam technically second, this kicked off the broader arcs. I read it long ago, but it came back as I went through it again. Nice memories.
In this 3rd book of the Warlock Series by Christopher Stasheff, Rod, Gwen, and 3 of their 4 children are whisked away to another world where True Magic works. Poor baby Gregory is left at home in Gramarye without his Momma and how are they to get home.
I found this one quite unexpected, but both enjoyable and interesting. I almost want to read it again to see if there was anything I missed. I'm sure I will be rereading it at some point. This series is fascinating me.
This was a good one in the series. I could hardly put it down.
Don't really remember the series but I did read lot of them.
Entertaining.A quick and easy read.

Q: How to Dispose() after every HTTP request using Scoped Service in OnModelCreating()? I have a multi-tenant app and for every HTTP Request it should validate the Headers for the property AccountId.
Global query filters are a good way to isolate tenants mentioned in .NET Core Docs but it doesn't list how you can dispose state after each request.
Here is an example:
ApplicationDbContext.cs
Has a global query filter for Account entity using AccountId injected by the FooHeaderService
private readonly IFooHeader _fooHeaders;

public ApplicationDbContext(IFooHeader fooHeaders) : base(options)
{
    this._fooHeaders = fooHeaders;
}

protected override void OnModelCreating() {
    FooHeaders foo = this._fooHeaders.GetFooHeaders().AccountId;

    // or using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure
    FooHeaders foo = this.Database.GetService<IFooHeaders>();
    Guid fooId = foo.AccountId;     // MUST DISPOSE BETWEEN REQUESTS!

    // Global Query Filter
    modelBuilder.Entity<Account>()
        .HasQueryFilter(filter => filter.AccountId = fooId)
}

FooHeaderService
Gets the Headers for AccountId
public class FooHeaderService : IFooHeaders
{
    private readonly FooHeaders _headers;

    public FooHeaderService(IHttpContextAccessor contextAccessor)
    {
        _headers.AccountId = contextAccessor.HttpContext?.Request
             .Headers["accountId"].ToString();
    }

    public FooHeaders GetFooHeaders() => _headers;
}

Startup.cs
Register FooHeaderService as ScopedService
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    services.AddSingleton<IHttpContextAccessor, HttpContextAccessor>();
    services.AddScoped<IFooHeader, FooHeaderService>();

    services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>();
}

Issue
Without properly disposing, the variable fooId = AccountId inside OnModelCreating() persists between HTTP Requests (very dangerous stuff!).
How do you dependency inject FooHeaderService into OnModelCreating() and dispose state for each HTTP Request cycle?

A: Look at the sample here:
https://github.com/dotnet/EntityFramework.Docs/blob/master/samples/core/Querying/QueryFilters/BloggingContext.cs
OnModelCreating only runs once, so you can't resolve a particular AccountId there.  Instead pass a service into your DbContext constructor that allows you to get to the AccountId.  You actually already have done that, you're just not using it in OnModelCreating.
So this should be
public ApplicationDbContext(IFooHeader fooHeaders) : base(options)
{
    this._fooHeaders = fooHeaders;
}

protected override void OnModelCreating() {

    // Global Query Filter
    modelBuilder.Entity<Account>()
        .HasQueryFilter(filter => filter.AccountId = this._fooHeaders.AccountId)
}

That way every Request gets a new DbContexts (since it's scoped), and every DbContext has different IFooHeaders to plug into the global query filter.

A: You can use the HttpResponse.RegisterForDisposal method:
HttpContext.Response.RegisterForDisposal(fooId);

Stalking website vows to launch next week
A new celebrity-stalking website that tracks its victims in real time is launching next week, despite having been repudiated by Twitter.
Justspotted.com applies natural language filters to data from Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare pull out celebrity sightings. It then monitors the movements of 7,000-odd celebrities, tracking them on a world map. The site will also aggregate news stories about celebrities.
The company denies that the site will be much help to real stalkers. "The information isn't real-time enough for you to run over there and see them," founder and CEO AJ Asver told Hollywood Reporter.
But unless the victims are particularly fast eaters, that won't be the case, as the information published can include restaurant names.
Twitter, aghast at the idea, has dissociated itself from the venture. The last thing it wants to do, after all, is jeopardise its relationship with celebrity tweeters such as Ashton Kutcher and Lady Gaga.
It says it's terminated the deal giving Justspotted access to its firehose data feed of public updates. But Justpotted says it doesn't need this, as its system can aggregate tweets by scraping, using the publicly available APIs.
Asver says he has lots of ideas about how to monetize the site – including getting celebrities themselves to pay to promote their movies and even the products they endorse.
Somehow, we don't think the A-listers are likely to be doing a lot of that sort of thing.

Der Schramberger Eberhard-Friedrich-Walcker-Preis ist ein Musikpreis für professionelle Nachwuchsorganisten. Er wird alle vier Jahre im Rahmen eines internationalen Wettbewerbs in Schramberg vergeben. Als einziger Orgelwettbewerb weltweit ist der Walcker-Preis auf die deutsch-romantische Orgelliteratur bezogen und wird auf historischen Instrumenten gespielt.

Geschichte und Beschreibung

Ausrichter des Wettbewerbs ist der Verein Schramberger Orgelkonzerte e. V. Der nach dem renommierten Orgelbaumeister Eberhard Friedrich Walcker benannte Preis wurde erstmals im Jahr 2001 vergeben. Danach fand der Internationale Orgelwettbewerb Schramberg ab 2004 jeweils im Abstand von vier Jahren statt.

Der Veranstaltungsort Schramberg im Schwarzwald wurde gewählt, weil sich dort mit der 1844 erbauten Walcker-Orgel in der Kirche St. Maria und der Späth-Orgel (1925) in der Heilig-Geist-Kirche zwei romantische Denkmalorgeln befinden, die sich hervorragend für die Austragung eines solchen Wettbewerbs eignen.

Die fünfköpfige Jury unter dem Vorsitz von Ludger Lohmann, Professor an der Musikhochschule Stuttgart, ist jeweils prominent und international besetzt. Zu den Juroren zählten bisher unter anderen Guy Bovet, Hans Fagius, Peter Planyavsky und Jacques van Oortmerssen. Die Preisverleihung findet im Schramberger Schloss statt.

Pandemiebedingt konnte die Veranstaltung im Jahr 2020 nicht turnusgemäß durchgeführt und 2021 nicht nachgeholt werden. Der Sechste Internationale Orgelwettbewerb Schramberg fand vom 18. bis 27. Mai 2022 statt.

Preise
Der Walcker-Preis ist mit insgesamt 10.000 Euro dotiert, die auf drei Preisträger verteilt werden:

 1. Preis: 5.000 Euro ("Eberhard-Friedrich-Walcker-Preis")
 2. Preis: 3.000 Euro

This entry was posted in Closed, Extended Team, Middlebury Community Interest and tagged Meetings, notes on September 1, 2017 by Joseph Antonioli.
The proposal for the ACTT called for an evaluation at the one-year and two-year marks. The one-year evaluation was designed to assess the Team's activities so that changes could be made. The evaluation was also designed to have as few survey questions as possible, some of the evaluations questions are designed to be answered with collected data. A brief survey was shared with Core members, Extended Team members, and members of the Project Teams.
We now have a searchable database of the web-based services that support academic work, with infrastructure dependencies. Now that budget decisions are being made, services are moving from pilot to production and enterprise phases, the information in the database needs to be updated.
When Moodle was launched we saw a decrease in use from Fall to Spring. This year we saw an increase in Canvas use.
Some faculty used Canvas in the Fall but did not use it in the Spring, and vice versa. Also, faculty did not use Canvas for all of their courses. This may mean that faculty are thinking critically about whether Canvas supports their teaching on a course by course basis. The CTLR-sponsored a number of Canvas-based workshops.
Panopto is not just a streaming media service, it also offers expanded functionality for screen capturing, broadcasting, and media discussion. A CTLR-sponsored workshop used Panopto for flipping the classroom activities.
The videoconferencing evaluation used an interesting method. 4 services were used in one hour in a round-robin style. The Team was able to quickly determine the top choices. The pilot of Zoom was so successful, and the platform so popular, that we needed to expand to a campus-wide license before the end.
A handful of classes used RStudio Server this year. DLA-sponsored workshops on DATA were delivered, and a Data Study group was created.
The company has let us know that they will be launching a cloud-based version of RSTudio Server.
We had a 75% return rate for the survey. All of the Core Team and most of the Extended Team took the survey. Some may have mis-identified themselves.
Many members of the ACTT serve on multiple teams. There are four members that serve on the Core, Extended, and Project Teams.
Most members find the published information useful for their jobs.
The majority of members in all roles believe that the information shared at meetings is useful for their jobs. 25% are Not Sure, which seems high. Some more investigation is needed.
Note from Discussion: Some may be feeling unsure about the usefulness because of their own participation in some of the discussions. We should look for ways to craft the discussions so that everyone feels they are able to participate.
Some feel that the multiple points of view are very valuable, otherwise they would be receiving one point of view, or a filtered point of view, from individuals. The Team has done well at being inclusive in its information gathering and sharing.
This question is flawed, since members were not asked if they had a role on the CTT. It is expected that Core members that served on the CTT would see no change, new Core members would see an increase. Extended Team members that served on the CTT would see a decrease, new members would see an increase. Some follow up questions will need to be asked.
The projected number of Extended Team meetings was one per month. The average is very close, however it is noted that most of these meetings occurred in the fall as recommendations were crafted for budget proposals.
Note from Discussion: Some noted that the weekly meeting creates efficiencies, they are meeting collectively with people that they would meet with individually anyways.
Some comments were broken up, with an attempt to group ideas based on content.
Notes from Discussion: There are outstanding questions about the relationship of the ACTT and ITS Governance/Priority Setting. We also identified future projects: WordPress sites and MiddCreate; Moodle Archiving; Panopto Rollout; Canvas LTIs.
Joe will post the notes from this meeting.

Transgender Delegation Makes DNC ''Especially Historic''
2012 Dem Convention boasts largest-ever number of transgender delegates
By David Aaron Moore/QNotes
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The 2012 Democratic Convention proved to be reflective of the country's "melting pot" moniker in multiple ways. The number of LGBT delegates is historical and record-breaking: 486 in total and from every state in the country – a dramatic upswing from the 288 on board for the 2008 convention.
"When you consider what it has been like in the past, it's amazing," said Barbara Casbar Siperstein, the first transgender member of the Democratic National Committee and a "super delegate" from New Jersey who participated in selecting Charlotte as the site for the convention. "This year is the first time there have been so many delegates from the trans community, so it makes it an especially historic moment for us."

In total, there are 13 openly trans delegates. Several took time to speak directly with QNotes. Here's a look at who they are and some of their thoughts on President Obama, Charlotte, their role in the convention and their hopes for the future:
Dr. Dana Beyer
Beyer is a retired eye surgeon and the executive director of Gender Rights Maryland. She admits the recent passage of Amendment One was a disappointment, but it doesn't diminish her respect for Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. "I know that Mecklenburg County and other metropolitan areas voted no, so I don't think Amendment One makes Charlotte any less progressive than it was." Beyer spoke of President Obama with reverence: "He's done more for the LGBT community than any previous president. I can't be anything but grateful to this administration."
Kylar William Broadus
As an African-American transman, Broadus feels his role as a Missouri delegate is unique. "Overall, my part of the community is relatively invisible. People don't even realize we're out there. I think my presence allows us to address issues regarding race and increases visibility for transmen."
Of Obama, Broadus said, "He has led us through one of the most difficult times in American history. I think we owe him another four years to repair the damage by the previous administration that took them eight years to create."
Janice Covington
A Charlotte resident since 1973, Covington is the chair of TransCarolina, a sitting member of the HRC Carolinas steering committee and a busy LGBT activist (since 1990). She's proud of her election as a delegate, because it required her to cross cultural differences. It was a strategy that paid off: "I think a lot of the people who voted for me had never even seen anything like me before," she joked. "But they got to know me, they came to like me and then they elected me. Afterwards we all hugged and cried together. It was a great time."
Covington is confident North Carolina will eventually have to overturn Amendment One, her state's constitutional amendment banning marriage equality. "It will take some time and we'll have to get a Democratic majority again, but I know we can accomplish it if we all work together." She also said she hopes to run for the U.S. Congress in the future.
Michigan delegate Amy Hunter is from Kalamazoo. She runs Equality Michigan Pride PAC, and is extremely happy with the accomplishments President Obama has made for the LGBT community and for the country as a whole. "The broader conversation about equality for all of us makes for a compelling narrative," Hunter said in the pages of The Detroit News.
Cris Land
This was Land's first DNC. He's a resident of Columbia County, Ore., and the chair of the Columbia County Democratic Central Committee. In addition to numerous other responsibilities as a trans activist and a member of the Democratic Party, he also works as a management consultant. "I am honored to go to Charlotte as a trans man elected as a Congressional District Delegate," he noted on the Trans United for Obama website.
Daria Lynn Lohman
From Arizona, Lohman was an alternate delegate, though that didn't make her experience in Charlotte at the DNC any less exciting. "This is my first National Convention and I am very excited to be here," she wrote on Trans United for Obama. A resident of Phoenix, she is a Vietnam Veteran and active in PFLAG.
Arthur Murillo
A delegate from San Francisco, Murrillo's credentials are impressive. He was elected as a delegate to the 2004, 2008 and 2012 Democratic National Conventions and his campaign experience includes work for President Obama, Hillary Clinton and John Kerry.
Lesley Rebecca Phillips
An at-large delegate from Massachusetts, Phillps attended the '04 and '08 conventions as a volunteer. She also confirmed that she attended the 1964 convention (for President Lyndon Johnson) while still a student. In 2008 she was one of the first transgender individuals to be elected to the Democratic State Committee in Massachusetts.
Marissa Richmond
An at-large delegate from Nashville, Tenn., Richmond also serves as the president of the Tennessee Transgender Political Coalition. In 2008, she was the first transgender individual to win an election in that state. This past March, she was re-elected to a third term. For President Obama, she is full of praise: "He's done a good job with the economic challenges he was handed when he took office. He's an intelligent and thoughtful man, truly with the best of intentions for all Americans. He deserves our support for the next four years."
Diego Manuel Sanchez
Sanchez is another at-large delegate from Massachusetts. He has been active in the Democratic Party since 1988 and works as a staffer for openly gay Congressman Barney Frank. On the Trans for Obama site, he wrote, "As a lifelong active Democrat, I'm honored to be working for victorious elections of Democrats everywhere, including President Obama, to lead our country towards LGBT and other equality."
Jamie Dianne Shiner
A resident of Green Bay, Wis., this was Shiner's first opportunity to serve as a delegate and her first Democratic National Convention. She was happy to confirm her active involvement with Fair Wisconsin, an effort to fight that state's anti-marriage amendment, and her work for the Obama Campaign in 2008. On a personal note, she hopes to get elected to the Democratic National Committee in the near future.
Barbra Casbar Siperstein
Siperstein is an executive committee member of the DNC and the deputy vice chair of the New Jersey Democratic State Committee. In addition to being the president of the New Jersey Stonewall Democrats, she's a published author, small-business owner, veteran and a grandparent. She holds one particularly important distinction: In 2009 she was appointed and confirmed as the first transgender member of the Democratic National Committee.
Sipperstein was impressed with Charlotte and how the convention was handled. "There are a lot more delegates at this convention than at any other city previously," she offered. "What I've seen so far has been tremendous."
As for the man she is here to support, Sipperstein said, "Considering what he started with – he was left a mess – I'm definitely impressed with his accomplishments. We have work to do, but I'm confident the country will realize we can't return to the past."
Melissa Sklarz
A delegate from the state of New York, Sklarz was recently elected president of the Stonewall Democratic Club of New York City. In 1999, she became the first transgender person elected to office in New York when she became the judicial delegate for the 66th Assembly District. In her biography on Trans For Obama, she touts the importance of transgender individuals coming out: "Trans political power can increase with increased trans visibility."
Meghan Stabler
A delegate from Texas, Meghan Stabler is a business executive, transgender advocate and LGBT activist. Another noteworthy fact: She's a member of Obama's 2012 LGBT Leadership Circle. Born in England, today she is an American citizen and was very excited about the friendly Charlotte residents she encountered during the convention. She's effusive about her support for President Obama and the importance of winning this election. "This isn't about one singular issue," Stabler said. "Who wins this election will set the tone of this country for the next 20 years because they'll be appointing the next judges to the Supreme Court. That's why it's paramount we rally to support our president."

GOP Candidate Claims to Help People "Escape" Homosexuality
Congressional candidate Leon Benjamin has compared LGBTQ people to people with bipolar disorder and drug addicts.
By John Riley on January 18, 2023 @JRileyMW
A Republican candidate for Congress found himself being confronted over a more than decade-old Facebook post in which he compared members of the LGBTQ community to people who are "sick, disease," suffer from bipolar disorder, or are addicted to drugs.
Leon Benjamin, the Republican Party's nominee for Virginia's 4th Congressional District, appeared on MSNBC's The Sunday Show last weekend, during which he was confronted by host Jonathan Capehart, a gay man, over the post.
In the post, which was posted in January 2011, Benjamin, a senior pastor at New Life Harvest Church, encouraged people to bring those in need of salvation to an event at his church.
Pope Francis Condemns Laws Criminalizing Same-Sex Relationships
Pontiff blasts anti-gay laws while reaffirming Catholic teaching that being gay is sinful, but "not a crime."
Pope Francis, the head of the Roman Catholic Church, has condemned laws around the world that criminalize same-sex relationships.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Francis called on Catholic bishops to welcome LGBTQ people into the church, even as it stands by its opposition same-sex marriage, gender-nonconformity, and out-of-wedlock sexual activity.
"Being homosexual is not a crime," Francis told the AP. "It's not a crime. Yes, but it's a sin. Fine, but first let's distinguish between a sin and a crime.
"It's also a sing to lack charity with one another," he added.
Did Gay Republican George Santos Hide His Marriage to a Woman?
Divorce records uncovered by The Daily Beast appear to show that the congressman-elect did not disclose a previous heterosexual marriage.
By John Riley on December 22, 2022 @JRileyMW
George Devolder-Santos, the Republican congressman-elect from New York, who claims to be the first out gay Republican elected as a non-incumbent, allegedly concealed his marriage to -- and divorce from -- a woman.
Santos, who was elected last month to represent parts of Queens and Long Island beginning next year, came under fire earlier this week after a New York Times article alleged that he had fabricated parts of his résumé and biography, including his work history, educational background, business dealings, real estate holdings, and even his purported Jewish heritage.

Q: Format SQL query by php implode function I'm using Nette Framework and I have this commands in action:
    $id = is_array($id) ? implode(', ', $id) : $id;
    $this->database->table('manufacturing')->where('id', $id)->update(array('trash' => '1'));

When I select 4 rows in my Grid and call this action to delete items, it will generate this SQL code:
UPDATE `manufacturing`
SET `trash`='1'
WHERE (`id` = '31, 32, 33, 34')

But I need code like this to update all rows:
UPDATE `manufacturing`
SET `trash` = '1'
WHERE ((`id` = '31') OR (`id` = '32') OR (`id` = '33') OR (`id` = '34'));

Is possible to do with implode function? Thank you.
edit:
when I made this:
$id = is_array($id) ? implode(' "OR" ', $id) : $id;

it will do this:
UPDATE `manufacturing`
SET `trash`='1'
WHERE (`id` = '31 \"OR\" 32 \"OR\" 33 \"OR\" 34')

A: you can directly pass the array in the where function, it will be transformed to a id IN (1,2,3,xxx) automaticaly.

Xiaomi Mi 4 takes on the market with steel
Juan Carlos Torres
As expected, Xiaomi revealed today its next flagship, the Mi 4 and as expected, the it boasts of the best in class specs, save a few here and there. Proving past rumors and leaks right, this Chinese manufacturer has indeed tried to give the Xiaomi Mi 4 a more premium personality, by utilizing a slightly heavier but definitely sturdier stainless steel material for its body.
Let's get the tech specs out of the way. The Xiaomi Mi 4, unsurprisingly, boasts of top of the line hardware, though there are some areas where flagships from major brands do better. While we may all probably wish for 2K screens, the Full HD resolution on this 5-inch panel, made by Sharp and Japan Display Inc (JDI), is just right for its size. Considering very few devices run on the latest Snapdragon 805, the 2.5 Ghz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 is still pretty much at the top. And with 3 GB of RAM, things are guaranteed to run fast and smooth, at least up to a certain point.
But it is the design of the Xiaomi Mi 4 that bears noting. Not many employ the use of steel for its devices. Although it is more durable, it is a bit more expensive, heavier, and harder to get right. But when done well, the quality of craftsmanship shows, as seen in the iPhone and some of Sony's high-end Xperia phones. Xiaomi has managed to keep the weight down to 149 g, not exactly the lightest but an achievement nonetheless. That said, there is one part of the Mi 4's appearance that might raise a few eyebrows. When leaks revealed that the company would be returning to more rounded corners, the photos hinted at a design more similar to Samsung's devices. The final product shown on stage today, however, reveals one that could be mistaken for an iPhone.
But an iPhone, at least by default, would not have the customization options that the Xiaomi Mi 4 has to offer, particularly in terms of back covers. Taking a page from Motorola's book, the company will be making available a variety of swappable covers, not just of varying colors but even of different textures, including wood, fabric, leather, and even marble. The default color options, however, are black and white. Xiaomi also has two internal storage options available, of course with different prices. The 16 GB model costs 1,999 RMB, around $322, while the 64 GB has a price tag of 2,499 RMB, roughly $402. Xiaomi has a rather interesting launch schedule for the Mi 4, starting July 29 on China Unicom, August for China Telecom, and September for China Mobile 4G. Now all that remains is the biggest questions of them all: will it ever land on the US?

El Museo de Anatomía Comparada de Vertebrados (MACV) es un museo perteneciente a la Facultad de Ciencias Biológicas de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid destinado a la formación del alumnado en el campo de la zoología, cuenta con una gran cantidad de ejemplares reunidos gracias a la donación y colaboración tanto de profesores como de alumnos así como de ayudas recibidas por determinadas entidades públicas y privadas, disponiendo de ejemplares únicos por su rareza o características peculiares.

Historia
Destacada colección que comenzó a formarse en la década de 1970 como material de apoyo en la Cátedra de Zoología de Vertebrados del Departamento de Zoología, contando, en sus orígenes, con una modesta colección de ejemplares adquiridos en las últimas décadas del siglo XIX.

Gracias al interés de Francisco Bernis Madrazo, que se interesó por la colección ya deteriorada por el paso del tiempo y al trabajo continuado de profesores y alumnos, se produjo el desarrollo del Museo de Anatomía Comparada de Vertebrados.

Colecciones y actividad
De la inicial y pequeña colección formada por ejemplares naturalizados, huesos, cráneos, esqueletos y preparados anatómicos diversos, en la actualidad presenta una muestra extensa añadida de morfología y anatomía comparada de vertebrados.

El Museo posee catalogadas más de 8000 piezas: esqueletos, animales íntegros (conservados en líquidos) y envueltas tegumentarias (pelos de mamíferos, plumas de aves y escamas de peces), siendo la colección más completa la de animales íntegros que supera las 600 especies diferentes.

Los tres grandes objetivos de este museo se pueden definir en primer lugar en una clara vocación docente; también como elemento de referencia para estudios de la Sistemática, Biomecánica y Ecomorfología de vertebrados y como instrumento de sensibilización social respecto a la ecología y el medio ambiente.

While I doubt the conversation among the neighbors who shared the same party line as my grandparents ever got as racy as it did between Doris Day and Rock Hudson in Pillow Talk, I would venture a guess that there was more than the occasional eavesdropper who picked up a ringtone that didn't belong to them and hoped to pick up some juicy gossip to share over morning coffee.
It baffled me that instead of hearing a dial tone when you picked up the receiver you might hear someone else's conversation and you couldn't use the phone until they were done, not to mention the fact that the phone might ring all day long and not a single call would be for you. In those days the pattern of "briiiings" designated the family and everyone knew which pattern belonged to whom and there was nothing to stop someone from picking up the phone "just because." I wonder if people, especially teenagers, had secret codes to keep their neighbors and parents from knowing what they were up to.
As technology evolved households moved from party lines to private lines and teen lines. I'm not sure if the person who originated the concept of a phone line dedicated to teenagers was a brilliant marketer for the phone company or the frustrated parent of a fourteen year old girl. In any case, I'm sure I wasn't alone in thanking them for my privacy and freedom from phone call time limits. (Who knew that the concept of "charging for minutes" may have originated thirty-five years ago).
I spent hours with the base of my red, white, and blue candlestick phone resting on my stomach and the phone piece propped against my ear sharing secrets and giggling dreams. We didn't have caller ID or voicemail, no one worried about having their number published in the phone book, and the biggest risk of being embarrassed was that a younger sibling was brave enough to listen in and repeat what they heard.
Our social network was our friends and their parents, we wouldn't have considered sharing personal information with strangers, and my biggest fear for an hour or two was how my parents discovered my plans and whether or not the 'bugaphone' they claimed to own was real or not. The biggest decision was whether or not to answer the phone and parents taught kids about technology not the other way around. If it weren't for my daughter, managing my landline would still be a mystery.
"Mom, do you know what the rapid beeping noise is when you pick up the phone?" Katie asked.
"The mailbox is full. No more messages can be received. Please delete old messages," the mechanical voice said.
Nowadays I when I want to share something I have a hard time deciding if I should update my status, pin it to a board, write on someone's wall, or post something to my blog (and if so, which one). I try to remember who will see what depending on which one I choose and I wonder if my automatic tweets fool anyone into thinking that I actually understand Twitter.
Then of course there are private messages, emails, text messages, Skype, and last but not least the option of an old fashioned phone call or handwritten letter to share information of a more private sort. Although based on what I see some people post and tweet I'm not sure that everyone understands they have other options.
Looking back it doesn't seem like listening for "two shorts a long and a short" to know the call was yours or the notion of eavesdropping on your neighbors was complicated or foreign after all.
This might be a great piece for AARP or a retirement type of publication. What cha' think?
This brings back lots of memories. I loved it.
Groovy phone, man! Antique Roadshow for sure!


I saw in a magazine recently some photos of three rings, (the engagement and wedding bands) I thought it was in Martha Stewart Weddings, but now I can't find the article. But there were some cool photos of the rings on rocks and plants, and just in some interesting combinations. I tried to do the same. I am really excited about the wedding bands we bought. Our rings are all from different places, and each is unique. I attempted my own photo shoot, with my point and shoot camera. Rings are a tough subject, but I think you can get the general idea.
PS – Tomorrow Rob and I will have been engaged for three months. Is that all it has been? It feels like forever (in a good way) that it is time to get married and we have such a long time to wait. Three more months. But it also feels like we've been together for so much more than a year.

Navigation and Cruising Guide
The Oswego Canal is the third longest of the canals that make up the New York State Canal System. Beginning at its junction with the Erie Canal (Three Rivers Junction) near Phoenix, NY located 6.8 SM (5.9 NM) west of Erie Canal Lock E23. The Oswego Canal runs in a northerly direction following the Oswego River passing through the towns of Phoenix, NY, Fulton, NY, and Minetto, NY until it reaches Oswego, NY and finally emptying into Lake Ontario.
When the original Erie Canal was built, it bypassed Lake Ontario in an effort to concentrate on establishing a trade route to the upper Great Lakes by the easiest route available at the time while avoiding the Niagara Escarpment. It was soon realized that a canal to Lake Ontario was needed to aid in commerce between Northern New York and Canada, so construction on the Oswego Canal was started in 1825 and lasted 4 years. The canal opened in the spring of 1829.

Navigation Season
The navigation season for the Oswego Canal is the same as for the rest of the New York State Canal System with the exception of the Cayuga-Seneca Canal. Typically, mid-May through October or November with the standard hours of operation being from 0700 to 1700 daily.
A number of locks on the Oswego Canal also have extended hours operating until 2200 daily until shortly after Labor Day when they revert back to 1700 for the remainder of the navigation season. These hours are subject to change from year to year.
A complete listing of the operating schedule is located in the right sidebar ("NYSCS Operating Schedule") and is published prior to the start of each year's navigation season.
The Oswego Canal from Three Rivers Junction to the open waters of Lake Ontario is 24.2 SM (21.8 NM).
To further break this down, the distance from the first lock O1 to the last lock O8 is a total of 20.7 SM (18.0 NM).
A complete set of distance tables can be found on the Oswego Canal Distances Page. The tables are published in Statute Miles, Nautical Miles, and Kilometers. They are available for download.
Aids to Navigation
When transiting the Oswego Canal, red markers are kept to starboard when northbound from Three Rivers Junction until reaching Lock O8. From that point the buoyage system reverses; where red markers are now kept to port until reaching the open waters of Lake Ontario.
NOAA Chart #14786, provides coverage of the Oswego Canal system. The individual charts can be viewed below:

You can view each chart by clicking on the "Chart #" above. The chart will open in a new window.
There are 7 locks that make up the Oswego Canal. Locks O1 thru Lock O8. (See photos of all Oswego Canal Locks below.)
All Lock chambers are the same; 328 feet long and 45 feet wide and offer lines, cables, pipes, or in many cases a combination of both, on the lock walls for your vessel.

NOTE: There is no Lock O4 on the Oswego Canal.
A complete listing of the (7) Oswego Canal Locks with distances, lifts, and estimated transit times can be viewed at the Oswego Canal Locks Page. These tables are available for download.
Channel Depths
From Three Rivers Junction to Oswego, NY project channel depths are 14 feet with 14 feet over the lock sills.
Bridge Clearances
At normal pool level, minimum bridge clearance is 21 feet 1.8 inches at bridge O-13 and O-13A. At maximum pool level, minimum bridge clearance is 20 feet 0 inches at O-4A (pipeline), O-7A and O-10.
For a complete listing of Cayuga-Seneca Canal bridges, guard gates, and utility crossings along with their clearances, visit the Oswego Canal Bridge Clearances Page. These tables, in Statute Miles, Nautical Miles, and Kilometers/meters, are available for download.
All lockmasters maintain a watch on VHF channel 13 (156.650 MHz). Phone numbers of each lock can be found at the Oswego Canal Locks Page.
The speed limit for the Oswego Canal except in the vicinity of the locks and unless otherwise posted is as follows:
From the Erie Canal/Oswego Canal Junction (Three Rivers) to Lock O2 - 10 mph (8.7 knots).
Lock O2 to Lock O3 - 5 mph (4.3 knots).
Lock O3 to Lock O6 - 10 mph (8.7 knots).
Speeds broken down by each canal segment and provided in MPH, Knots, and KPH can be found on the Oswego Canal Distances Page.
As a general guide, the Oswego Canal from the Erie Canal Junction at Three Rivers to Lake Ontario can be done in about 4.7 hours for a vessel capable of maintaining the posted speed limits. A vessel making 7 knots will require about 5.2 hours for the same transit. Keep in mind that all of the stars in the universe have to align for this to happen. In reality it would be best to figure on 6 to 7 hours to make the passage.
Distances between major points along the Oswego Canal can be found on the Oswego Canal - Distances Page. The distances table shown is useful in planning your transit through the canal.
NOAA Weather broadcasts can be found at 162.550 MHz (WX-1 VHF) out of Syracuse, NY (WXL31). This station provides coverage for the entirety of the Oswego Canal providing current and forecasted weather and emergency alerts.
Once in the vicinity of Lake Ontario, NOAA Weather Radio out of Rochester, NY (162.400 MHz WX-2) may provide better marine forecasts for Lake Ontario.

The splash-proof Sony Xperia Tablet S was first launched a few months ago, but had to be pulled from sale because of problems with its waterproof seal. It's now back on sale, and watertight, but has the delay sunk it, with numerous competitors breaking the surface since its original launch. Although it retains the same unique tapered design as the original Tablet S, it is thinner, lighter and easier to hold.
The slimmer design also looks much more generic than its predecessor, meaning it has to standout in other ways in order to impress. It certainly has a decent enough specification, having a 1.3GHz Nvidia Tegra 3 CPU, 16GB of storage, an 8-megapixel camera and Android 4.0. Although the model reviewed here only has Wi-Fi, a 3G model is available. It looks similar to other tablets, and the original Tablet S, but recessed edges hide the power and volume keys on one side and the 3.5mm headphone jack and full-size SD card slot on the other. Annoyingly, there's no video output, so you won't be able to connect the tablet to a TV. Both the card reader and the charging port at the base of the tablet are covered by plastic flaps. The charging port cover is completely removable, and could be easily misplaced or lost.
With the port covers fitted, this tablet is completely splash proof. We tipped a cup of water over the display and it suffered no adverse effects. This, along with a limited guest account feature, could make the Xperia Tablet S ideal for families with young children. Here's the Xperia Tablet S getting a good drenching Sony showed us its guest mode well before Google announced multiple-user accounts would be supported on Android 4.2 tablets. The two aren't directly comparable, however; once you enable guest mode, you can choose specific apps and widgets to enable or disable, limiting access to the internet, or features such as the camera or Google Play Store. Using a password, you can safely hand the tablet over to your kids without worrying what they're getting up to when you aren't around.

through a whole day on a single charge. It's a shame that Sony had to pull the Xperia Tablet S for so long in order to fix its splash-proof seal, as in the meantime its been surpassed in many ways by the Google Nexus 10 , which has a significantly better screen for the same money. The Xperia Tablet S's splash-proof design and family-friendly guest mode are genuinely useful features that should appeal to parents of young children, but given its high price, it's difficult to recommend when the Nexus is such good value.

Style Resolutions: Shopping Your Own Closet!
Happy belated 2017, Style Darlings! Hope you're having just as wonderful and smiley a year as I'm having! The proof is in my Instagram traffic, with a whopping 900 followers as of today! I couldn't be happier about the progress I'm making in spreading the joy of living the stylish life, one positively coiffed day at a time!
I've had a great deal of time since the holidays to consider the goals I want to achieve this calendar year, especially when so many new adventures and responsibilities are headed my way. The countless windows of opportunity are open to me in all personal and professional aspects of life, which is why this year, more than any other, will be MY year. Of course, it's possible that anyone with a keyboard and Wi-Fi connection is declaring just such ownership of 2017 (I mean, I can share)… or perhaps the public is more concerned with other crucial national / international issues regarding where our country is headed. Not to be an ostrich in the sand given the clamorous climate during this weekend's emotional marches, but I know that the best way I can be true to myself as an American woman, the woman I want to be, and the woman I want my readers to know, is to just be me, to talk about the magic that is life, love, positivity, inspiration, fashion, and all things creative—all the things that give me hope.
You may begin to wonder (if you're out there reading and wondering at all) where this Style Darling chick is going with this setup of resolutions? The title of this post basically points to "shopping your own closet" (and I'll be getting to that more directly in just a moment, so please bear with me). Well, the arsenal of style that I have packed away on hangers, stuffed under my bed, and still stored at my parents' house from over three years ago are the external representations of what I wish to express as my hopes for this year. On the inside, the strength that I've recovered from thirty three years of life experience has allowed me a much greater and more valuable inventory, if you will, of knowledge that I will claim as much as I possibly can. When I'm putting together an outfit. When I'm making my morning tea. When I'm listening to the La La Land soundtrack. When I'm tutoring students about syntax. When my hand is held while hustling through the streets of New York City. And for every lovely moment in between. That knowledge simply includes the promise that I will embrace the richness of every day. I will be present. I will speak up. I will appreciate the time I have to myself and with my loved ones. I will always be my best self; both the world and I deserve it.
In doing so, there are also some worries that make the drive to win the year a little more challenging. Among these, finances are always on my mind, which is why I'm committed to better shopping resolutions, only seeking unique and special must-haves unlike anything I currently own, as well as reinvesting and shopping my very full and fashionable closet with favorite wardrobe staples. In a conscious effort to mind my spending, I'm looking at how unexpected pieces can be played down and how basics can be styled up.
Since I have the liberty of taking my style into my hands at both of my jobs, as an educator and stylist, I'm free to explore what inspires me on social media, in magazines, from the people around me, and within my imagination. However, it has been quite the exercise in self-control since I will no longer, at the swift swipe of my credit card, buy any and every affordable sparkly thing I see online or in stores. No matter how sparkly it is. Really. I'm certainly not punishing myself for past indulgences, but in moving forward to wherever the future takes me, I hallucinate a little bit that I'll end up being a real-life Miss Havisham of the 21st century, but of the clothing hoarder variety.
And now for the moment you've been waiting for… I've also recently been very careful about what I look at when it comes to seeking out style inspiration in stores and online, because it is oh-so tempting. However, I found the below affordable and chic graphic tees (gray, cream, black, & navy) from Old Navy for $15.00. I was immediately inspired to give these t-shirts the style blogger treatment they deserve, especially since I'm all about Prosecco and Paris. Upon discovering these tops, I went on a sort-of text rant about how they should have been presented on the Facebook post I initially saw them on, but also in how they are so plainly styled on the website.
A simple pop of jewelry takes these tees to the next level, while staying true to any mix of ladylike and modern style where casual meets cool. In addition, to build a budget-friendly shopper-savvy collection, these tees are perfect for Style Darlings of any size, ranging from XS-XXL in each of the designs. As for the jewelry (filigree earrings, drop earrings, choker, & statement necklace) from Forever 21, there's no better place to shop when selecting something special, while also saving some cash instead of splurging on luxury sparkles.
To take these tees even further, think beyond your favorite pair of skinny jeans and try a sequin pencil skirt with a denim jacket, or a midi skirt and blazer. Also, when it comes to footwear, t-shirts are always compatible with ankle booties, ballet flats, strappy sandals, and knee boots. If you need further proof, just click around on Pinterest and take a fashion risk!
That's all from me. Have questions? Have inspiration you wanna chat about? Let's hear it. Happy 2017 and Happy Styling!

Happy New Year, everyone! Lets kick 2017 by looking at what is up with dyotropic rearrangements. I mentioned them in the past, but still have trouble finding too many of these fascinating reactions in papers. Perhaps one of the reasons for this lack of occurrence is that substrates for dyotropic processes tend to be fairly complex. This naturally brings me to total synthesis, where the starting material complexity is a moot point. The example below comes from the lab of Professor Thomas Magauer. I met him last summer in Munich and became acquainted with his innovative program. Now that his paper dedicated to the synthesis of dictooxetane is out, you can also enjoy the rare case of a dyotropic process that has been put to good use here. In this case, an epoxide/oxetane system participates in a dyotropic rearrangement. As a result of the bond switch, the scaffold gets transformed into a tetrahydrofuran/oxetane, which represents a downhill process. Copper tetrafluoroborate was used as the Lewis acid to trigger this process.
Thanks for the kind comment, Slava.
You're absolutely right, the attractiveness of the whole transformation is somewhat diminished by formation of the two by-products. We were pretty excited by the discovery of this dyotropic rearrangement and quite frankly did not extensively optimize the reaction any further. As you might have noted, we used the hydrate of copper tetrafluoroborate, which accounts for the by-product resulting from opening of the epoxide with water (37%, compound 42 in the SI). Using the non-hydrated form of the Lewis acid would presumably avoid formation of this compound… Thus, I strongly believe the yield of the dyotropic rearrangement product could well be improved by more extensive reaction optimization.
Thanks for the feature on "Amphoteros", I always enjoy reading these blog posts!

Rhyl railway station is on the Crewe to Holyhead North Wales Coast Line and serves the holiday resort of Rhyl, Wales.

History
The station was opened to traffic on 1 May 1848, being one of the original intermediate stations on the Chester and Holyhead Railway main line along the coast. Trains could run between Chester and Bangor from the day the station opened, but it would be a further two years before the completion of the Britannia Bridge across the Menai Straits allowed through running to and from Holyhead. A two-platform station was provided by the C&HR, with a main two-storey building on the eastbound (north) side. A decade later, it became a junction with the opening of a branch line to Denbigh (the Vale of Clwyd Railway) on 5 October 1858. The C&HR was taken over by the London and North Western Railway a few months later, with the Vale of Clwyd also being leased (and later absorbed) by the LNWR in 1867 to prevent the rival Great Western Railway acquiring it and thus gaining access to the area.

Under LNWR auspices the coast line became one of the company's major trunk routes, serving several popular holiday resorts in addition to the port of Holyhead. The rapid increase in traffic led the company to quadruple most of the section between Chester and Llandudno Junction in the 1890s to provide extra capacity. This included the  to Abergele stretch in 1897 and the station at Rhyl was remodelled and enlarged as a result. The westbound platform was re-located and widened into an island with an extra loop line on the south side, new bay platforms added (along with new carriage sidings and a large goods yard) and a pair of non-platform lines laid in the centre of the station for use by non-stop trains. A covered footbridge was provided to link the platforms, along with extensive awnings to shelter passengers and two large brick and timber signal boxes built to control the new layout. These were all completed and the new layout commissioned in 1900.

Rhyl would remain a popular holiday destination throughout the 20th century, though after World War II and nationalisation of the railway system in 1948 the Denbigh branch would see its service reduced; the line eventually closing to passenger traffic in September 1955. Excursions and goods traffic would continue until the line's eventual closure to all traffic in March 1965. The 1960s and 70s would also see the main line gradually lose much of the additional infrastructure added by the LNWR as road competition and changing holiday habits led to a decline in summer passenger numbers (along with the Beeching closures of many of the line's intermediate stations). By 1976 both slow lines towards Abergele had been lifted, along with west-end bays at the station and the up slow eastwards to Prestatyn, whilst the down loop platform saw use only on summer weekends. The remaining down slow from Prestatyn, goods sidings and platform 3 line at the station survived until 1990, when they were also lifted (along with the up fast line through the station) and Rhyl No2 signal box closed. Though the latter still survives (though boarded up, it is a listed building), the site of the old platform 3 and goods yard has been redeveloped (now a supermarket and associated car park).

Only the two through platforms remain in use in 2016, along with the down through line and a pair of engineers sidings. These were formerly supervised from the former No.1 signal box, but this was made redundant in March 2018, when a new modular colour light signalling system controlled from the South Wales Rail Operating Centre was brought into use between  and Colwyn Bay as part of a £50 million route upgrade project.

Facilities
Ticket barriers are in operation at the station; the ticket office on platform 1 is staffed throughout the week. A ticket machine is also available for use and for collecting pre-paid tickets purchased online or via telephone. There are also toilets, a cafe, retail units and waiting room in the main building. Platform 2 (westbound) has a waiting shelter and canopies, but the remaining buildings there are not in rail use. The platforms are linked by a footbridge with integrated lift, so both are fully accessible for disabled passengers. Train running information is offered via digital display screens, automated announcements and timetable poster boards.

Services
Monday to Saturday:
 Transport for Wales operates an alternate hourly service from Holyhead to  and to , both via Chester,  and .
