Q: domain of a function $f(\sin(x)) = \sin^2(x)$ what's the domain of f where
$$ f(\sin(x)) = \sin^2(x)$$
is the domain $\mathbb{R}$ or[-1,1]
I say it's $\mathbb{R}$ since there's no constraint on x to be real, the constraint is on
sin(x) to be real so x can be complex thus sin(x) is real

A: Obviously you are not stating (or you are missing altogether) crucial pieces of information. I don't exactly understand the reason why $\sin$ should tacitly be assumed to be a map $\Bbb C\to\Bbb C$, while $f$ should be assumed to be a function from a subset of $\Bbb R$ to $\Bbb R$. My guess would be that all the functions appearing in the text are implicitly assumed to be $\Bbb R\to\Bbb R$, and therefore that nothing can be said about the domain of $f$, other than the fact that $\operatorname{dom}f\supseteq [-1,1]$.

A: This kind of question is ill-posed; you can't deduce the domain of a function just from a functional equation that involves it.
Even if the equation $f(\sin(x))=\sin^2(x)$ is only given to hold for $x\in\Bbb R$, we might still have $\operatorname{dom} f=\Bbb R$ or even $\operatorname{dom} f=\Bbb C$. For $x\notin[-1,1]$, we simply have no information about $f(x)$ (including whether it is defined).

Accuracy issues in Kalman filtering state estimation of stiff continuous-discrete stochastic models arisen in engineering research
Kulikov, Gennady Yu; Kulikova, Maria
Proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on System Theory, Control and Computing, Sinaia, Romania, (2018), 800-805
https://doi.org/10.1109/ICSTCC.2018.8540695
This paper aims at exploring accuracy of Kalman-like filters. Its particular interest lies in estimation of stochastic systems whose drift coefficients expose a stiff behavior. The latter means that the Jacobian of the drift coefficient in such a continuous-discrete system, which is presented by an Itô-type stochastic differential equation (SDE) for modeling the plant's dynamic behavior and a discrete-time equation for simulating its measurement process, has large eigenvalues at the solution trajectory. Here, we employ the so-called "discrete-discrete" approach, which is grounded in SDE discretization schemes, and compare the outcome accuracy of EKF-, CKF- and UKF-type methods when these are based on the Euler-Maruyama and Itô-Taylor discretizations of the strong convergence orders 0.5 and 1.5 and applied for estimating the Van der Pol oscillator and Oregonator reaction models. We evidence that state estimation errors committed in our stiff stochastic scenarios are sensitive to both the type of Kalman filtering method utilized and the SDE discretization scheme implemented. So these must be chosen carefully in accurate and robust state estimation algorithms intended for treating stiff continuous-discrete stochastic systems.

Rescue efforts in quake-hit central Philippines were hampered on Thursday due to heavy rains, even as 30 bodies have been recovered from the rubble in the region.
Rains in the Philippines city of Guihulngan forced rescuers to stop the search for survivors, as the weather department said the rains could continue till Sunday due to an approaching low pressure area.
The rescuers had recovered 30 bodies from the rubble of the quake-triggered landslide in Guihulngan in Negros Oriental area of the Central Philippines when the search was temporarily stopped.
The rain could last through the weekend because of an approaching low pressure area (LPA), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration said. Guihulngan Mayor Ernesto Reyes said the rescuers were also at risk because there were aftershocks almost every hour and the soil softened by the rain could trigger a landslide.

Assessment of Therapeutic Response of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum to Chloroquine in a Malaria Transmission Free Area in Colombia
Vol. 97(4): 559-562, June 2002

In order to determine the frequency of therapeutic failures to chloroquine (CQ) in patients with malaria due to either Plasmodium falciparum or P. vivax, and to explore the usefulness of a malaria-free city as a sentinel site to monitor the emergence of drug resistance, 53 patients (44 infected with P. vivax and 9 with P. falciparum) were evaluated at the Laboratory of Parasitology, Universidad del Valle in Cali, Colombia. Patients received 25 mg/kg of CQ divided in three doses over 48 h; they were followed during 28 days according to WHO/PAHO protocols. While therapeutic failures to CQ in the P. vivax group were not detected, the proportion of therapeutic failures in the P. falciparum group was high (78%) and consistent with the reports from endemic areas in Colombia. The diverse origin of cases presenting therapeutic failure confirmed that P. falciparum resistant to CQ is widespread in Colombia, and further supports the change in the national antimalarial drug scheme. Monitoring of drug resistance in malaria free areas would be useful to identify sites requiring efficacy evaluation, and in some situations could be the most appropriate alternative to collect information from endemic areas where therapeutic efficacy studies are not feasible.
Key words: malaria - Plasmodium falciparum - Plasmodium vivax - chloroquine - Colombia
The incidence of malaria has increased in the last 30 years in Colombia. In the 70's, an average of 281 cases per 100,000 inhabitants was diagnosed with malaria, while by the 90's incidence had increased to 607 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. Both Plasmodium vivax and P. falciparum are reported in a ratio of 3:2 respectively (Ministerio de Salud 1998).
Traditionally, chloroquine (CQ) was the first line drug for treatment of uncomplicated malaria in Colombia. It has been used at a dosage of 25 mg/kg over 48 h (maximum dosage: 1,500 mg) for both P. vivax and P. falciparum. For radical cure, in P. vivax infections primaquine (15 mg in adults) is added to CQ over 14 days, whereas in P. falciparum, CQ has been given simultaneously with a single dosage of sulfadoxine/pyrimethamine. This is followed by primaquine as a gametocytocide (45 mg as a single dose in adults). Due to reports of the presence of widespread and high level (> 25%) CQ-resistant P. falciparum in Colombia, in 1999 the Ministry of Health replaced CQ with amodiaquine in the multiple drug combination therapy (Ministerio de Salud 1999).
Therapeutic failures to CQ in patients with uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria in Colombia are well documented in some areas of the Pacific Coast, Amazon region, and in the department of Antioquia (Espinal et al. 1985, Blair 1986, Osorio et al. 1999). On the other hand, the susceptibility of P. vivax to CQ in Colombia has not been sufficiently studied. Nevertheless, recent reports of therapeutic failures to CQ in P. vivax cases from Brazil, Guyana and Guatemala (Padilla et al. 1998, Alecrim et al. 1999, Baird & Martin 1999) prompt the need to assess and monitor the susceptibility of P. vivax to CQ in other countries in the region.
Currently, the Colombian Ministry of Health is developing a surveillance system to monitor the efficacy of antimalarial drugs using a standardized methodology and as sentinel sites some endemic areas. Since the first reports of resistance to antimalarials have been in non-immune travelers, this study explored the potential use of a non-endemic area as a sentinel site to detect the emergence of resistance to antimalarial drugs. We evaluated the therapeutic response to CQ in patients with malaria due to both P. falciparum and P. vivax.
This study was conducted at the Parasitology Laboratory of the Universidad del Valle, in Cali, in the South Western region of Colombia (Figure). Between 600 and 1,400 malaria cases are reported annually in Cali, and more than 90% of them are diagnosed at this laboratory. The ratio of P. vivax/P. falciparum cases is similar to the rest of the country (3:2). In the city there is no local malaria transmission and most of the malaria cases reported originated from the Pacific Coast and the Amazon region of Colombia.
All patients who attended the Parasitology Laboratory between October 1998 and August 1999 and who had a positive thick smear were divided into two groups according to the identified Plasmodium species: P. vivax and P. falciparum. Patients were included in two stages: P. vivax group was included from October 1998 to March 1999 and P. falciparum group from March 1999 to August 1999. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were identical for both groups. The inclusion criteria were: age between 10 and 64 years old, parasitaemia range from 1,000 to 50,000 parasites/µl, and availability to return to follow-up for up to 28 days. The exclusion criteria were: mixed infections, pregnancy, persistent vomiting of the study drug, any sign of severe malaria and previous diagnosis of a chronic illness such as diabetes or hypertension.
The institutional ethical review committees of CIDEIM and the Universidad del Valle approved this study. All patients participated voluntarily and under informed consent. In the present study, patients with P. falciparum malaria were included in 1999 when CQ was still recommended by the Ministry of Health as the first line treatment for uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria.
Protocol - The standard protocol recommended by PAHO to assess the therapeutic efficacy of antimalarial drugs in areas with low/moderate intensity of malaria transmission was used for P. falciparum (PAHO 1998). For P. vivax, a protocol that is being developed by PAHO to assess the therapeutic efficacy of CQ to treat P. vivax (PAHO 1998) was used. According to these protocols, patients were clinically and parasitologically evaluated on days 0, 1, 2, 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28 for P. falciparum and on days 0, 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 21, and 28 for P. vivax.
Treatment responses in P. falciparum cases were classified in two ways: (1) parasitological response, graded as RIII, RII, early RI, and late RI/sensitive (WHO 1996), and (2) therapeutic response, according to the following classification: (a) early treatment failure (ETF), defined by any of the followings: (i) development of warning signs or severe malaria on days 1, 2 or 3, in the presence of parasitaemia; (ii) parasite density on day 2 higher than the day 0 count; (iii) parasite density on day 3 > 25% of count on day 0; (b) late treatment failure (LTF), defined by any of the followings: (i) development of warning signs or severe malaria after day 3 in the presence of parasitaemia; (ii) unscheduled return of the patient because of clinical deterioration in the presence of para-sitaemia; (iii) presence of parasitaemia on any scheduled follow-up day on or after day 7; (c) adequate clinical response (ACR): did not meet criteria for early or late treatment failure and clearance of parasitaemia after day 3 through day 28.
For P. vivax, treatment failure was defined as the presence of any parasitaemia on day 4, or a negative slide on day 4 and a positive result on any subsequent day. Otherwise, treatment response was classified as sensitive.
As stated in the protocols, the sample size was calculated using the Double Lot Quality Assurance Sample Method (Lemeshow & Taber 1991). With an estimated proportion of treatment failures between 25% and 10%, an error of 5% and 80% of power, the minimum number of patients required in the study was 16 and the maximum 42. Adjusting the larger sample size to a 20% loss to follow-up, 50 patients were required in each study group.
Patients received 25 mg/kg CQ (a total of 1,500 mg in adults) over 48 h. Patients were under supervision of study personnel during 1 h after taking CQ. Primaquine was administered after the 28th day or in case of treatment failure. Primaquine treatment in P. vivax cases was not supervised. Patients classified as therapeutic failures in the P. falciparum group received amodiaquine plus sulphadoxine/pyrimethamine, and primaquine at the standard dosages.
In each follow-up day, two thick smears were taken and stained with 1% Giemsa. Parasite density was calculated by counting the number of parasites (asexual forms) found per 200 leukocytes, and assuming a total of 8,000 leukocytes/µl. A negative result was given after 200 fields were reviewed and no parasites were found. An experienced laboratory technician read the thick smears. A second reader reviewed the entire positive and 10% of the negative slides. And a third reader reviewed discordant results between the first and the second readers (positive/negative or parasite densities with a difference greater than 25%). The final result was either of the first two counts closest to that of the third reader.
Patients who completed the study, and did not take other antimalarial drugs during the follow-up, were included in the analysis. The Student's t test was used for comparison of continuos variables, the Chi-square test for the comparison of binary and categorical data, and the Pearson correlation to assess the relationship between the parasite density at enrollment and time to treatment failure.
A total of 63 patients were included in the study, 50 with P. vivax and 13 with P. falciparum. Although the calculated sample size was equal for both groups, inclusion in the P. falciparum group was stopped due to the high proportion of treatment failures detected. Fifty-three patients completed the study: 44 in the P. vivax and 9 in the P. falciparum group. Nine patients who were lost to follow up and one who took another antimalarial drug were not included in the analysis. In general, most patients were women more than 15 years old who came from the Pacific Coast region (Figure and Table). The most frequent symptoms were: fever (100%), headache (98%), chills (96%), and bone pain (80%). Thirty-seven patients (70%) had malaria during the 12 previous months. At the time of diagnosis 18 (36%) patients in the P. vivax group had not visited an endemic area since the previous malaria episode, suggesting that the present episode was a relapse.
Among the 9 P. falciparum patients who completed the study, 7 (78%) (95% CI: 40-97) were classified as therapeutical failures: 5 LTF and 2 ETF. Two patients (22%) were classified as adequate therapeutic response. The two patients classified as ETF did not meet the parasitological criteria for resistance. According to the parasitological response, 5 (55%) (95% CI:21-86) were CQ resistant: 1 RII, 1 early RI, and 3 late RI. There was an inverse correlation between parasitaemia at enrollment and the day of treatment failure. Patients with higher parasitaemia failed earlier than patients with lower parasitaemia (r = -0.78; P = 0.035).
All patients infected with P. vivax cleared parasites by day 4 and were negative in all subsequent controls. However, five patients returned spontaneously to the clinic with a new P. vivax malaria episode within 2 to 6 months after treatment. These cases had not visited an endemic area since the last malaria episode and were classified as relapses.
The World Health Organization is promoting the creation of national and international networks for monitoring antimalarial drug resistance (WHO 2000). The strategy consists of establishing sentinel sites in endemic areas within a country where periodic testing of the efficacy of antimalarial treatment is carried out. In countries with low intensity malaria transmission, the number of sentinel sites to be included in the national network is constrained by the economic and human resources available but mainly by the availability of sites with a sufficient number of eligible patients. Inclusion of non endemic areas as sentinel sites for monitoring antimalarial drug resistance would help to optimize the resources by signaling sites requiring efficacy evaluation and, in some situations, could be the most adequate alternative to gather information from endemic areas where local studies are not feasible.
In the present study, the standard WHO/PAHO in vivo tests (WHO 1996, PAHO 1998) were used to assess the therapeutic efficacy of CQ to treat both uncomplicated P. falciparum and P. vivax malaria, and to explore the usefulness of non-endemic areas as sentinel sites. The study population were composed of both "immune" (residents of endemic areas) and non-immune patients (travelers from non endemic areas to endemic areas), coming from different endemic regions (mainly the Pacific Coast) of Colombia. The proportion of therapeutic failures to CQ among P. falciparum patients was very high (78%) and consistent with reports from endemic areas (Espinal 1985, Blair 1986, Osorio 1999). Due to the wide distribution of the origin of the cases, rates of drug resistance for any given area can not be drawn from these results. However, they showed that CQ resistance is widespread and further support the change in the national antimalarial drug scheme to treat uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria. If in vivo studies in endemic areas had not been conducted, it would have been mandatory to conduct such studies in the areas where the cases originated. Studies in endemic areas are needed to assess whether a change in the local antimalarial drug policy is indicated. However, there would be some areas, such as those burdened with conflict, remote access or where follow-up of patients is not possible and hence standard in vivo tests can not be conducted. In such situations, a study conducted in a non-endemic area that is restricted to travelers to/from the area of interest would be suitable to estimate the level of resistance in the endemic area.
Studies among travelers could overestimate the level of drug resistance in an endemic area. In the present study clinical failures were more common than parasitological failures. Therefore a 100% correlation between therapeutic and parasitological classifications of response to treatment observed in studies in endemic areas was not detected (Osorio 1999). This could be explained by the fact that patients from non-endemic areas may be more susceptible to clinical deterioration with lower parasitaemias than patients from endemic areas who have been exposed to malaria or have had previous subclinical infections. Although further studies are needed to quantify the difference in therapeutic response among travelers to, and residents of endemic areas, we believe that the threshold of 25% failure, that is used to change local antimalarial drug policies, is a reasonable guide for the evaluation of treatment response of patients diagnosed in referral centers in non-endemic locations.
If travelers are more susceptible to treatment failures than residents of endemic areas because they lack acquired immunity, studies in non-endemic areas will be more sensitive. In the present study, treatment failure to CQ among patients infected with P. vivax was not detected. We used the threshold of 25% to study resistance to CQ P. vivax since this is the level of resistance that has been established by WHO as a limit for modifying the antimalarial drug policy for P. falciparum (WHO 1996). Based on the lot quality assurance sampling method recommended by the PAHO protocol (PAHO 1998) and according to the results the true prevalence expected of treatment failure in patients attending the parasitological laboratory in Cali is less than 10%. Therefore, the presence of a low level of CQ resistance in P. vivax in the region can not be ruled out. Future studies would require calculation of the sample size based on low levels of expected resistance (less than 25%) to be able to detect treatment failures if it exists.
Periodic in vivo testing is not the only method that can be use to monitor antimalarial drug resistance in non-endemic areas. Passive detection of treatment failures (by advising to return if symptoms persist or reappear) or routinely examining of slides after treatment (day 4 or 7) could also be applicable according to the circumstances. Since these methods do not ensure full compliance with the medication and many patients do not return, they can not be used to quantify the efficacy of the antimalarial regimen. Nevertheless, when treatment failure is suspected they would help to determine that a standard in vivo study is needed and/or to signal endemic areas where further studies will be required. The finding that five patients participating in the study spontaneously returned with a new episode of P. vivax infection classified as a relapse demonstrates the feasibility of passive detection, although treatment with primaquine was not supervised and follow up was not done in all patients. The high proportion of relapse (36%) among patients at enrollment into the study prompt for an evaluation of the radical therapy with primaquine considering compliance with treatment as well a possible failure of primaquine therapy.
Passive case detection and periodic in vivo tests are not mutually exclusive and both methods can be used in non-endemic areas to monitor the emergence and spread of drug resistance. Additionally, the feasibility to follow patients with low or no acquired immunity to malaria up to 28 days or more without the risk of re-infection is an advantage for early detection of emerging drug resistance. Consequently, we consider that non-endemic areas could be included as sentinel sites in the national network for monitoring antimalarial drug resistance in Colombia.

In August we found out about the tension and resolution factor of the V7 chord (G7 in the key of C) to the I chord (C) and what happens when you take out the two notes that are creating all the tension in the V7 chord: you're left with a very friendly sounding Major Pentatonic Scale.
The C Major Pentatonic Scale consists of five tones, C-D-E-G-A. In the audio clip below I've added the octave C.
Notice the two notes that were left out of the Major Pentatonic Scale, the F and the B. Play those two together. There's the tension of the G7 chord. There are many songs that use the notes of the Major Pentatonic Scale for their melody. Take the Tennessee Waltz for example. Another that comes to mind is Buttons and Bows. If you know of some popular Pentatonic melodies, please post them in the comments section.
Camptown Races is all Pentatonic, except for one passing tone near the end. Melody starts on the 5th of the scale and the first interval is the third of the scale, E. Example would be C Pentatonic (C D E G A C') and the melody starts on G.A tip for playing is that that second section "Gone a run all day" is major arpeggio. 1 3 5 8 or C E G C'Knowing info like this for melodies and songs cut's out wrong notes. If you know all the notes only come from a particular scale or tonality and mastered the fingerings for the same yu can never play a melody wrong.
The opening riff to "My Girl" ascends the major pentatonic scale directly which is how I remember how it sounds.

Gruppo Ospedaliero San Donato can play a central role during the COVID-19 pandemic
Healthcare groups such as the Milan based Gruppo Ospedaliero San Donato have shown that private healthcare groups can be fully integrated into the public health system
MILAN, ITALY - Media OutReach - March 30, 2020 - Covid-19 concerns humanity as a whole. No nation has been spared, and humanity as a whole must unite and face the situation as one if we are defeat this invisible enemy. We must open our metaphorical borders even though our physical ones are being closed daily.
Now is not a time for recrimination and resentment, but for unity and solidarity.
Covid-19 has shown the world the importance of strong healthcare systems and emergency response systems. It has also shown that collaboration between governments, international institutions, civil society, and the private sector are all possible with the right will.
COVID-19 is perhaps the biggest peacetime test for our society; the world will not be the same as we left it in 2019.
For too long now wealthy, developed nations have paid lip service to the difficulties faced in the less wealthy developing nations. For too long we have ignored the plight of our brothers and sisters in places like Africa, where epidemics have struck weakened populations with merciless efficiency. In the past, the devastation of epidemics was confined to the poorer nations of our world, while the wealthier ones were protected by easy access to advanced, often universal, healthcare systems, vaccination programmes, and technology. COVID-19 is an invisible and unwelcome guest that respects no boundary and has swiftly and relentlessly smashed through all barriers, manmade or otherwise.
Cooperation and collaboration among nations is of critical importance now. We must forget our individual nationalities and come together as humans of equal value. What is important today is to create an alliance where we are all kin to each other, a true league of nations that knows no borders and that is open to all and refuses none.
As we now know, perhaps a little too late, healthcare systems are the first line of defence against invisible enemies such as COVID-19. Our healthcare workers and emergency services have been placed on the frontline of this terrible battle and are having to deal with a mass casualty situation that in recent years has only ever been witnessed in war.
We must protect our healthcare professionals; we cannot allow them to take the immense risks that they are taking today in the future. These modern day heroes have on occasion had to make the ultimate sacrifice, often due to a lack of resources and medical materials that leaves them open to contagion. The world was caught off guard this time, but we will not have this excuse once the pandemic is over. We can no longer pretend that cuts in healthcare investments are justified, and we must never, ever leave our medical professionals so cruelly exposed again.
We need to revisit our healthcare models together and apply the most efficient systems. The private medical sector holds the key. Take the example of Lombardy, where the private sector has been contributing immensely towards helping the government cope with this crisis.
Healthcare groups such as the Milan-based Gruppo Ospedaliero San Donato have shown that private healthcare groups can be fully integrated into the public health system. The private healthcare system can play a central role during a crisis by treating a high percentage of patients. Take GSD, for example: although it makes up 13% of the system it has taken on 18% of COVID-19 patients in Lombardy during this emergency. Such figures demonstrate just how efficient the private sector can be in terms of responsiveness when properly integrated into the public system.
I am hopeful that we can learn from our mistakes. In a post COVID-19 world, we will have no choice, as the alternative does not bear consideration.
Yet when I think of the human capacity for love and altruism, I am filled with hope for the future. When I think of those I have seen in the developing world struggling for life against all odds, and see it happening today in the developed world, I remember that it is not the weakness or cruelty or venality of people that comes out in times of crisis, but the generosity, humanity, and solidarity that occurs when we might least expect it.

In his 1954 published almanac ABC to Men's Fashion, Sir Hardy Amies said that, 'to attain style in dress, you must look perfectly happy and relaxed in your clothes which must appear part of you rather than a wardrobe you have donned'. Since being appointed as Creative Director of the 1945 founded house, Mehmet Ali's collections have handsomely followed suit, offering impeccable wardrobe choices that focus on the individual. Taking a call at No.14, Savile Row, the company's elegant address since its founding year, Ali discusses dressing modern men, 2001:A Space Odyssey and being a pioneer.
Perhaps we can begin with your current role at Hardy Amies.
I am the Creative Director and have been with Hardy Amies for approaching five years. I joined the company when it was really in its early stages of re-launching. It was a very small company, I think there were only ten, twelve employees at the time. There has been a lot of growth; it's been amazing. When I came in, I had these plans and ideas; things that I wanted to do for the business. We built it season by season; we're on our ninth season since I have been there and just started work on the tenth.
What was your experience of joining such a storied brand?
I will say that along the way that's probably been the main area that needed a lot of attention and a lot of care to ensure that things were done that were not just right for the business but right for the heritage of the house – and implemented at the right time. Timing has been key. We've always had the vision for Hardy Amies that it is potentially the key to modern Savile Row as a house. Hardy himself was a pioneer for ready-to-wear menswear; wearable and approachable menswear. That's really why what he stood for, seems the mindset of today's society. More than really what any other Savile Row house aspired to achieve. We love our bespoke heritage, and we love the bespoke side of what we currently still do but what this heritage has allowed us is to refocus some of the parts of the history into the modern day and to explain how relevant a historic Savile Row house can be if it is treated in the right way. So we have done that quite carefully, season by season.
Today, are you dressing two Hardy Amies men? One wearing bespoke, the other more casual items?
Our aim has been that this is the same person. That's an interesting question because I think whenever you're creating a collection it's a cycle, collections offer different kinds of products. When you talk to your costumers, you realise there are actually different types of customers who buy from that range. It's very rare that you have the majority of your custom from a total look. We will have people that come in and only buy the full suiting and formal outerwear, the kind of 'career driven' pieces. But I think the majority of people will come in and like to select pieces. Mix and match the look; more of a modern approach. But really, the collections are designed for one person, for various different needs; work, casual, weekend and travel – whatever it may be seasonally.
When you joined Hardy Amies, how did you envision the modern Hardy Amies man?
Well, it was around the time that Mr Porter launched. Personally I felt that there was this movement of this younger and I suppose affluent consumer; someone with money and taste, who wanted all of it in one place. Really, it's modelled from my own taste to some extend. It was very much the kind of thing I was interested in, that I was seeing – younger, international guys dressing in a certain way. But I wanted to take it one step further and create the real aesthetic surrounding the Hardy Amies man. The first three or four collections were all about pinpointing the perfect modern classic pieces and analyzing; how do we dress? How is this going to change seasonally? How is this going to change over the next few years? What is the importance of a pea coat and technical pieces? The biggest part of the collection and the most significant are the unstructured pieces, which are all about ease of wear, movement and comfort, while still looking sharp and tailored. Those were really modelled a lot on my own experience and life. My own friends and colleagues, but also what you're seeing out there. Modelled on the realities of a young man's life and then building it from there.
I assume you mostly wear Hardy Amies?
I usually do, there are some other houses and brands that I love, so I will mix it up. Monday to Friday, when I'm in the studio, I'll be in Hardy Amies. There's a piece that I always come back to, the unstructured, single breasted, three patch pocket jacket. Really versatile, great to travel in. And because we do it in quite a few different fabrications; flannels, hop scaks, brushed wools, it does the job perfectly. I have it in a very beautiful, brushed navy flannel and that serves me very well! I am very much a believer that you should live in your clothes, rather than having lots of different pieces.
These are the two elements that have given the collection modernity and youthfulness. The colour and the prints, in addition to the softer more structured pieces, are parts of the things I really believed in. For the prints, we have been quite fortunate [as] we have a great archive. It's not huge, but there are quite a lot of interesting items from his many decades. It might not be necessarily clothing prints, they might be wallpaper prints, upholstery or fabric. He did a lot of different types of things, he was a very busy man by the sounds of it. We have been able to use those pieces as a starting point to then develop the prints in-house. We have a very talented, young design team. With the knitwear, I work with a really great knitwear designer who I have known for quite a few years now. I am a real lover of knitwear. Outerwear is very important for a man, tailoring is and I would say knitwear is nearly up there.
The brand has also been part of LC:M for several seasons!
I love LC:M, the work the BFC has done has been amazing. What they have done has been really important for British menswear, not just for the more established houses and the bigger, global brands but for the younger guys as well, people just starting out, to give a platform for their work. It's great, for example Paul Smith and Agi&Sam; it's brilliant! A young design troupe that's really just starting out with some really great ideas and a much more established, stalwart designer kind of guiding them. Being involved with that over the last five, six seasons has been fantastic. We show smaller presentations, which were for me again this journey for Hardy Amies. We wanted to tread lightly because we are a heritage house doing something more modern. For me, it was more important we spend time explaining to the rest of the world what we were planning to do. We wanted to build it each season, culminating in the last two seasons, the show collections. Really use them as a chance to show what a house like us can do. The creativity and the more design lead pieces really are there to complement the foundation of the collections. The shows are there to push the envelope a little bit more.
On the topic of LC:M, can you tell us more about the SS16 collection?
We had a lot of fun with that collection! Like all those collections it was crazy to work on, a lot of hard work for the team. It paid off, so we were all quite happy. I have always loved one particular part of Hardy Amies; the fact that he was the designer on 2001: A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick. It's one of my favourite films, a complete classic that totally redefined that genre of cinema. It's beautiful, very cinematic and it hasn't aged terribly at all. It's actually held up since it was made in the 60s. I found it brilliant that Hardy Amies would be working with somebody like Stanley Kubrick on this project and hearing some of the stories how they met and how the project started. I always said that when the time is right I would like to do a collection inspired by this. There was a lot that showed Hardy Amies for pushing the envelope; innovating and pioneering, just from his work on projects like that. It shows that he thought outside the box. I wanted to do justice to that by creating a collection that was inspired by that film but also by the sprit of what it is to be a pioneer, creative and pushing things forward. So the collection was based aesthetically partly on aeronautics and futuristic travel. But, more importantly, the fabrics were very much based on innovation and pioneering. We wanted to make it relevant. Aesthetically there were elements that were a bit more conceptual, with the fabrication we wanted the focus to be on wearability. What are things that are happening within our industry that are really clever ways of doing things? Fabrications, like climate control, breathability and more technical fabrics that can also be used to travel really well.

Coming to Bucknell from the land of tex-mex, "hooking 'em", and Friday night lights is a big adjustment. Here are 10 distinct differences a Texan experiences coming to school in Pennsylvania.
1. Snow. The first time I toured Bucknell, snow was everywhere. It may seem like nothing to a northerner, but it snows (barely sticks to the ground) approximately once a year in Texas. Donning a Canada Goose jacket and a pom-pom beanie opens up a whole new world of winter fashion I didn't even know existed.
2. No one says "y'all." The first time I walked into my hall and said "hey y'all," I was met with looks of confusion, hilarity, and horror. But if you ask any Texan, they'll say the term should be added into the dictionary.
3. Whataburger doesn't exist. Oh how I miss my hub chubs (honey butter chicken biscuits), taquitos, and texas toast. Nobody does fast food quite like Whataburger, and I have spent many nights dreaming of when I'll be able to taste their fancy ketchup again.
4. Mums are unknown. A giant button the size of your head you wear to your high school homecoming game? What's not to love? Despite the never-ending struggle of figuring out how to pin your mum so your shirt doesn't fall down, mums are integral to Texas culture, however pointless they may seem.
5. Rodeos are foreign. Don't worry, I know how it sounds. But the Houston rodeo is an event I look forward to every year with anticipation. Complete with fried oreos, giant turkey legs, snow cones, and rides that make you throw it all up, "rodeo szn" is every Houstonian's favorite time of the year.
6. Not rooting for the Astros. Not to be that person, but 'Stros over everything else. Watching the best team in baseball come back from one of the biggest slumps in history to win the world series, the same year its city gets decimated by one of the worst hurricanes ever recorded… nothing gets better than that. #neversettle.
7. Super short road trips. The fact that I can get to NYC from Lewisburg in three hours is mind-boggling. That same driving time in Texas would get me to the next city over.
8. Tex-Mex isn't a thing. Nothing would make me happier than to have a cup of Escalante's queso, and an order of chicken fajitas in front of me. Literally nothing.
9. Buc-ee's is not there to alleviate your mid-trip hunger. Ok… I don't exactly miss giant record-setting gas stations, but it's definitely weird to come to a place where sixty gas pumps is foreign. Whoever coined the phrase "everything's bigger in Texas" definitely wasn't kidding.
10. Football. Not pro, not college, high school. When people ask me if Texas is exactly like "Friday Night Lights", I can't exactly give them a straight answer, given I've never watched the show (fake Texan, ikr). But what I can tell you is some Texans have religion, others have football. Clear eyes, full heart, can't lose?

On Sunday, January 5, 1896, readers of the comic supplement of Joseph Pulitzer's New York World saw something that would change the face of newspapers forever. In a full-page color cartoon entitled, "Golf—the Great Society Sport as played in Hogan's Alley," appeared a barefoot, bald-headed gamin1 clad only in a yellow nightshirt.2 The Yellow Kid (or Mickey Dugan, as he was eventually to be baptized) became the focus of a craze, and the hero of the world's first comic strip.
A common comic image at the turn of the century was the life of children of urban poverty, invariably "ethnic". Tastes change, and it is not likely that humor of the Hogan's Alley variety would be acceptable today; the nearest we can come to it, perhaps, is certain of the Our Gang comedies, themselves closer to the Kid's time than our own. Richard Felton Outcault (1864-1928) was only one of many cartoonists who made something of a specialty of this genre, but he somehow found a comic vein that was all his own. His street urchins radiated an insouciant defiance of penury that outshone the parallel attempts of other artists, who generally aimed at being either pathetic or quaintly amusing. The Kid, in particular, typically stands at the focus of the drawing, the sun in an orrery of riotous activity.
In October of 1896, Outcault moved to William Randolph Hearst's New York Journal. The state of the law at the time meant that neither Pulitzer nor Outcault had any proprietary rights in the feature, except for the title Hogan's Alley , which belonged to Pulitzer. Accordingly, from this point on, there were two Yellow Kids, one drawn by Outcault for the Journal, and one, continuing under the Hogan's Alley title, by George B. Luks for the World. 3 Luk's version, however, remains only a footnote in comics history, mainly of interest only as needful for the explication of Outcault's frequent jabs in the strip at his imitator.
But the Kid did not last long. The reasons are unclear, but may well have involved the violent reaction against the color yellow in the United States that accompanied the Spanish-American War. The royal ensign of Spain was dominated by yellow, and schools and clubs across the nation banished it from their symbols and uniforms, foreshadowing the "liberty cabbage" phenomenon of World War I. Another theory is that the Kid had become too identified with the phrase "yellow journalism", of which both the World and Journal were prime practitioners.
By then, however, the comic-strip medium had been successfully born. Outcault himself went on to create Buster Brown , and occasionally gave the Dugan Kid a "cameo" in that strip, to keep the character alive and available for advertising.
The Yellowest Place on the Planet!!!
1 Early versions of the Kid had appeared anonymously in many cartoons, but it is generally agreed that his successful run began here.
2 The oft-repeated tale that the hue of the Kid's garment was either to test or to show off an improved color printing process seems to be wholly apocryphal; the World's earlier problems with yellow had already been solved by this time.
3 Some readers may recall puzzling, as the present writer did as a child in the 50's, over the blatant identity of the two strips, The Katzenjammer Kids and The Captain and the Kids. This was the result of a similar event some years later.

Project Description: The project consisted of a conversion of The Ochre Lodge carriage house into a 14 bed dormitory on the campus of Salve University. This project involved the gut/rehab and renovation of the carriage house in a Historically significant section of Newprot Rhode Island.
Work Performed: ABC acted as the construction manager to deliver the project within budget and schedule providing value add upgrades requested by the owner without exceeding the overall owner's budget.
The existing building was stripped down to existing first floor exterior wall framing only and rebuilt from that point. These remaining walls were shored up, a new foundation curb added along with new bottom sill plates. The walls framing was replaced where rotted or new window and door openings were required. The top of the walls were extended with new framing and top plates to meet the new elevation. The entire 2nd floor framing including beams, post, joist and bearing walls were install to support the new second floor (previously a hay loft). The second floor walls and roof framing were installed to provide an integral mansard roof that matched the original buildings shape and size deviating only in the buildings height.
The building envelop included with high performance foam insulation, windows and doors. The building interior is blue-board and plaster with chair-rails, crown moldings and wainscoting. The ground floor slab was sealed and left exposed to replicate the carriage house look, the flooring on the upper floor is an engineered wood laminate flooring meant to replicate old barn decking.
The building exterior was trimmed and sided to replicate the original building siding. Some of the existing windows, doors and a new storefront were restored to historically match the original building.
The building utilizes high efficiency boilers and a radiant floor heating system, with new electrical service and fire protection systems. The interior finishes were selected to reflect a restored period building.
Value Engineering: ABC led the owner & design team thru value engineering of the building framing, interior finishes and mechanical systems to provide the owner with the highest quality end products and systems that exceeded the design intent. This was completed using a total team approach where vendors, subcontractors, engineers, architects and the owner met and reviewed all options available. .
Unique Construction Aspects: The project was completed in an astonishing 5 month period with special attention paid to the special requirements of Salve University and the Newport Historic Commission. During the selective demolition and building framing there were special challenges of finding existing structural conditions that needed to be addressed thru new design without impacting the schedule. The challenge of procuring all of the building materials and finishes to meet a tight schedule and be coordinated with each other was at time daunting.

High-dynamic range (HDR) is an imaging process that allows photographers to enhance the dynamic range of luminosity in a given photograph. In other words, HDR allows photographers to control both shadows and brightness within their photos to make their images appear more realistic, as opposed to being blown out (too light) or too dark.
Traditionally, this process is created by capturing multiple images in different exposure values, and then merging them together to create a single image. However, recent camera models have added an in-camera HDR mode, allowing photographers to create HDR photographs right on the spot, eliminating having to create them later during the workflow process.
One of cameras that possesses this mode is the Canon EOS 5D Mark III. The 5D Mark III allows the user to create an HDR image in five different forms: natural, art standard, art vivid, art bold, and art embossed, with each form having its own benefit in any given situation.
Although I am now not the fan of HDR that I was in the past, I do believe that this feature can help magnify one's creativity with their camera. In addition, I also believe that it is possible that one can yield even better results with their own post-processing techniques and/or by using an HDR post-processing program such as Photomatix Pro or Dynamic-Photo HDR in their work.
Hopefully, this comparison helps someone in this field of interest.
Try your best to keep the camera still when producing multiple exposures. This will limit any 'ghosting' within the final image. The best way to achieve good results is to use a tripod.
If you do not have a tripod or you cannot keep the camera still, shoot in RAW. This way you can create multiple exposures with one RAW image.
Practice makes perfect! Some people prefer mild HDR shots while others may prefer the over-cooked product. Outcomes are completely subjective, so you should find the application(s) that best produce what you would desire.

Bank of England outlines plans for new £50 note
The Bank of England (BoE) has confirmed that it intends to issue a new £50 note.
The new £50 note will imitate the existing £5 and £10 notes, alongside the upcoming new £20 note, and be made from polymer, as opposed to paper.
Speculation in regard to the future of the £50 note had been rife, with many previously expecting the BoE to scrap it altogether. In March, the Treasury reported that £50 notes are 'rarely used' to make purchases, and are often affiliated with crime, including money laundering and tax evasion. However, following a public consultation, the government recently confirmed that the current mix of notes and coins will remain.
Using polymer ensures that the new notes are 'cleaner, safer and stronger', the Bank stated. Polymer notes are 'harder to counterfeit', and reportedly last around 2.5 times longer than paper notes.
The BoE plans to introduce the new polymer £20 note in 2020. It predicts that the new £50 note will be introduced shortly after this time.
Commenting on the new note, Robert Jenrick, Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, said: 'Our coins and notes are respected and recognised the world over, and are a key part of the UK's heritage and identity.
'Our money needs to be secure and this new note will help prevent crime. This modern £50 note follows the popular new pound coin, which is the most secure of its kind in the world.'
Research suggests women 'save just a third of amount men do' for retirement
Research carried out by the Pensions Policy Institute (PPI) has suggested that, by the time they come to retire, women have saved just a third of the amount that men have for later life.

Max Blumenthal goes inside the Tea Party
This program leans heavily to the left but it's kind of interesting. Blumenthal isn't the most charismatic on camera personality but I agree with his observations about the tea partiers that
"I think these people are hurting economically, a lot of them are, and they're seeking solutions in irrational ways and they're blaming forces that have nothing to do with their pain... but there is a grass roots rage. The question is, how can that rage be channelled into something positive that can bring a genuine populist movement that's multiracial and multi-political together and direct it against power?"
I would prefer it if he had said "apolitical" instead of "multi-political" as political factions are a major part of the problems this country faces and often the very obstacle that stands in the way of solving those problems.
Another observation made by Blumenthal regards the origins of the tea party movement:
"This tea party movement says that they're libertarian but they're clearly authoritarian. When they talk about getting the government out of their lives, they're just talking about lowering taxes even though it wouldn't actually benefit them--it would only benefit the rich--but they're happy to have the government in the bedroom."
Diehard tea party advocates would probably bristle at that accusation of authoritarianism but I think that Blumenthal is identifying the fact that this movement--which had libertarian roots--has been hijacked by right-wing extremists and the most conservative operatives of the GOP base who are in fact authoritarian when it comes to things like civil liberties, LGBT issues, prohibition and foreign policy. These are "values" that are embraced by Republicans, not true libertarians who don't think that it's government's place to infringe on those very rights that Republicans fight so hard to control.
That being said, I invite you to watch this program and, as my late mother would say, take it for whatever it may be worth--and as long as it's still online. I doubt there's permission to host the whole program here.

This medicine is only for use in the ears. Wash your hands with soap and water. Do not insert any object or swab into the ear canal. Gently warm the bottle by holding it in your hand for 1 to 2 minutes. Lie down on your side with the affected ear up. Try not to touch the tip of the dropper to your ear, fingertips, or other surface. Squeeze the container gently to put the prescribed number of drops in the ear canal. Stay in this position for 60 seconds to help the drops soak into the ear. Repeat the steps for the other ear if both ears are infected. Do not use your medicine more often than directed. Finish the full course of medicine prescribed by your doctor or health care professional even if you think your condition is better.
It is important that you keep the ear(s) clean and dry. When bathing, try not to get the ear(s) wet. Do not go swimming unless your doctor or health care professional has told you otherwise.

Nov. 14, 1949: Springhill resident lost in woods
Published: Jun 22 at 3:28 p.m.

Heritage Corner with Pat Crowe
Robert John Davis, 34 of Mountain Rd., Springhill had the harrowing experience of spending Saturday night in the woods when he became lost during a hunting trip. Entering the woods at Canaan Saturday afternoon with a party of Springhill friends, he separated from the other men to go to a lake shooting ducks. When he had left the lake and realized he had lost his direction in the woods he could hear his friends calling to him but could not locate their position. When night settled down and the other men found it impossible to locate Davis, they came to Parrsboro and reported to the R.C.M.P. On Sunday about noon, just before a search party was to leave Parrsboro to comb the woods, Davis came out on the highway at Moose River and was picked up by a motorist from Truro and brought to Parrsboro. He had walked many miles through the woods and his clothes were badly tattered. Fortunately, the weather was not cold or rainy.
Diverting Trucks from Main Street
The Police Department is active these days diverting trucks from Main St. along a route that will take them along Lisgar and up Queen to the Junction Road or up Wolsley depending upon their direction. The move is an excellent one and has reduced the danger hazards on Main St. which heavily loaded trucks formally used in passing through the town. In one day 38 trucks were diverted. The next step in the campaign should be to see that the trucks parking on Main St. do not project beyond the white line. This has been going on for some time and creates a worse hazard to motorist and pedestrians than even the passing trucks.
Nov. 22, 1949 – Parrsboro Record – Amherst Man Fatally Shot in Hunting Accident
Springhill, N.S., Nov. 17th
Shot through the hip and abdomen while on a hunting trip Tuesday afternoon, Gerald Cole of Amherst died in All Saints Hospital following an emergency operation when three Springhill doctors attempted to save his life. It was the first fatal accident in this district this year. Frank Silicar Cook is said to have fired the fatal shot.
Accompanying Cole and Cook on the hunting trip were Harold Lines and Manford Ogden also of Amherst. The party had been hunting all morning and returned to their car parked at Wyndham where the Canada Electric power line crosses the road. Finishing the meal Cole moved into the woods and was about 300 feet from the road where he was hidden in a clump of bushes. Cook who was about 130 ft. behind Cole saw a movement in the bushes which he mistook for a deer and fired. At the moment Cole had been squatting for the bullet entered his left hip and his abdomen.
William Pettigrew, of Springhill, who was in the same area, arrived on the scene and the injured man was placed in his car and driven directly to All Saints Hospital. The bleeding was said to be mostly internal. Drs. Murray, Ryan and Adams preformed an emergency operation on the wounded man but he failed to rally.
A jury headed by Deputy Mayor Wm. T. Noiles, was empaneled by Coroner F.E. Walsh and viewed the body at the hospital. The inquest was held Friday evening at the Town Hall, Springhill, when a verdict of accidental death was returned.
Accident Near Springhill on Friday; One in Hospital
An unfortunate accident occurred near Springhill, N.S., early Friday afternoon, November 11th. Two cars from the Parrsboro area, whose passengers were all relatives of the late Mrs. C.F. McCabe of Glenville, Cumberland County, N.S. were proceeding to her funeral. The first snow of the season had been falling for some hours and the slippery roads made driving most hazardous. On reaching Springhill, the occupants of the first car momentarily lost sight of the second car which up until that time had been following closely. Thinking that the relatives were proceeding through town by a different route and that they would soon join each other they drove on. Arriving at Glenville the relative became apprehensive when the second car failed to appear. It was not until after the funeral service that they learned of the accident.
In the second car driven by Lester Spicer of Fox River (brother of the late Mrs. McCabe) was his sister-in-law, Mrs. John A. Spicer, of Spencer's Island, together with his brother-in-law John Winter and Mrs. Winter of Fox River. On a sharp turn in the road, on the outskirts of Springhill, the car skidded crazily, before making two complete somersaults. The four occupants miraculously escaped with their lives. Mrs. John Spicer, the most seriously injured is in All Saints Hospital suffering from a broken arm, shock and minor injuries. The others escaped with shock and a bad shaking up.

This is a great family dish, even if you have picky eaters!
Something for everybody and all on the same pan!
Boil ravioli until just done, drain and return to dry hot pot and cover to keep warm while you prepare the vegetables.
Line a sheet pan with foil. Place vegetables and garlic on foil, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt & pepper. Toss gently to distribute and spread out into an even layer. Cook in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, drizzle juice from 1/2 lemon over the vegetables and top with warm ravioli. Sprinkle with pine nuts and Parmesan and return to oven for 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
Jenna, this looks so good. We would never turn down any pasta dish. How fun that you and HHJr love to cook together. Happy Thursday!
It's fun, especially the nights he cooks for me!! Thanks Pam, it looks like it's going to be another beautiful Spring day!
Gosh, that looks so good. We don't have TJ's anywhere near. I'll need to look for that lemon ravioli and see if I can find another store's brand, maybe. Saving the recipe anyway, thanks.
You can always use cheese or any other kind of ravioli and just add lemon zest, thanks Rita!
Wow, that looks yummy!! No TJs near us, but I can grate some carrots and I just got a mandolin which will make short work of zucchini strips.
That looks tasty and a really nice presentation!
Looks great, how great to have a creative partner in the kitchen.

This looks so delicious Jenna. Just the two of us would make a meal off the sheet pan! I keep the lemon ravioli, so easy and tasty. Sounds like a good way to plan fun meals with the challenge.

Disqualification at Iowa Had Al Niece Wondering Why He Was a NASCAR Team Owner
Next week's NASCAR on NBC Podcast will be a good one, as Nate Ryan's guest is Ross Chastain.
Chastain won the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series M&M's 200 at Iowa Speedway this past weekend. However, his No. 44 truck failed post-race inspection and the victory was stripped away from the driver and his Niece Motorsports team.
In an excerpt from the upcoming podcast episode, which drops next week, Chastain explains that his team owner Al Niece debated why he even owned a team in NASCAR following the disqualification.
"There will be fallout from this for us for a long time," Chastain said. "It shook (team owner) Al Niece and all of us to our cores (asking), 'What are we doing? Why are we doing this?' Al's prepared for years to win races, and the amount of investment and infrastructure he's put into this race team, and to get your second win, and they take it away.
"I think it really made him think about why is he doing this? And is this worth doing? It did. He's a guy who wears his emotion on his sleeve just like I do. He's honest. And he came in the shop (Monday) and had some, for me, very bone-jarring words that was like, 'Holy cow, this could have a really bad effect on all our futures, his included, in NASCAR.'
"It's scary stuff right now, and that's why we will go win this weekend, and we will keep winning."

Coronavirus, News
The APC Overnight Network is committed to providing essential parcel collection & delivery services
"We're committed to providing essential parcel collection and delivery services nationally on behalf of our SME customers during these times of need."
The logistics industry has been thrown into the limelight in recent weeks, with delivery companies playing an integral role in keeping essential items moving and supplying communities during the coronavirus pandemic. Delivery drivers – now classed as key workers – are quite rightly being increasingly recognised as un-sung heroes, with so many of them committed to keep serving the needs of the nation.
Though recent weeks have proved challenging for the industry – with daily changes and increased demand for essential goods being seen across networks – the dedication of workforces across our network has been critical in ensuring that we can help keep the country moving.
But while the coming weeks and months are uncertain, one thing that is certain is our industry must continue to rise to the challenges, remaining focused to ensure we can fully utilise any capacity across the network to help those that need it most, in the communities that we serve.
The Midlands will play a pivotal role in this. As a region that has had long significance to the UK's logistics infrastructure, its position and accessibility means that it is perfectly placed to be at the hub of movements across the UK. Now, more than ever this role is key and it's vital that we manage this carefully.
While there are processes being put into place to ease the safe transportation of goods, more must be done to ensure that the entire capacity of the logistics industry is employed to full effect during this crisis period. Safety is central to the industry successfully doing its bit for the national effort, with contactless collection and delivery – something that The APC put into place three weeks ago – paramount to driver safety and social distancing rules.
Properly supplying the thousands of communities across the country is critical to weathering the storm during this pandemic. For delivery companies such as The APC, which is the only delivery company that specialises in SMEs, ensuring that these businesses continue to have safe access to their communities remains a priority.
SMEs have long been the backbone of the UK economy and they will now play a major role in helping consumers through this crisis. Data from CACI estimates that 59% of shoppers expect to do more buying locally, rather than at major shopping locations. This clearly demonstrates that the delivery of items from SMEs has never been more important to benefit both their economic future and their consumers' wellbeing.
While the Midlands has a proud heritage in logistics, our network of over 100 depots across the UK remain ingrained in the local communities they serve and dedicated to supporting those in need. Increasingly we are seeing some fantastic examples of this across our network – just this week one member depot, Swift Logistics, has announced it will be working alongside Age Concern and other local businesses to help deliver hot meals to the most vulnerable elderly in West Berkshire.
In these unprecedented times it's incredible to see examples of such resilience and commitment from all of the brilliant delivery teams and other front-line workers across the country. We want to continue to do everything possible to help support those in need, across the communities we serve, and to play our part in helping businesses and consumers through this crisis.
The APC is offering to support the NHS, medical suppliers, supermarkets, Government and all of those that are trying to get essential supplies to the public. We encourage them all to get in touch – our network of SME depots cover the length and breadth of the UK and are eager to help the communities we have served for over 25 years.
At this most difficult and challenging of times, we'd like to ask for your support to #KeepBritainMoving…
Courier Logistics wanted to say a huge THANK YOU #STAYSAFE
