An Update on Legionella Bacteria Management in Building Water Systems
By Joan B. Rose, PhD
Lower photo credit: CDC/Margaret Williams
We continue to write about U.S. waterborne disease caused by Legionella bacteria and their management in building water systems because of their unrelenting public health significance. Legionnaires' disease first made headlines following the 1976 American Legion conference in Philadelphia. That infamous outbreak included 182 cases of severe pneumonia and 29 deaths. Over 40 years later, major outbreaks continue to make the news—most recently in Atlanta with 1 death and over 60 probable cases of Legionnaires' disease. Ironically, Atlanta is the home of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which has spent decades investigating outbreaks and helping prevent Legionella infections, called legionellosis.
For the past two years, I chaired an expert committee of the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) that examined the ecology and diagnosis, transmission via water systems, quantification, prevention and control, and policy and training issues affecting the Management of Legionella in Water Systems. This article provides an update on Legionella in building water systems, focusing on some key findings and recommendations from the committee's recently released report concerning Legionella control in building water systems. Controlling Legionella in water systems was also the focus of a 2018 conference in Baltimore, Maryland, and a recently concluded 2019 follow-up conference in Los Angeles, California. It is clear that managing Legionella and Legionnaire's disease is a global water quality and health priority.
Legionella and Legionellosis
Legionella bacteria occur naturally in warm freshwater environments like lakes and streams. Because they grow optimally inside free-living amoebae associated with biofilms that coat wet surfaces, Legionella also occur in a wide variety of constructed water systems such as premise plumbing (e.g., household pipes). Exposure occurs via contaminated aerosols produced by showerheads, faucets, hot tubs, cooling towers, and decorative water features like fountains. "Wherever there are water and pipes eventually one can find Legionella including in many human-made building water systems."1 Further, because of stagnation, premise plumbing frequently lacks a disinfectant residual, and L. pneumophila can grow in public water systems to high numbers particularly when chlorine residuals are low or non-detectable (<0.1 mg/L).
People may become infected when they breathe in a mist (small airborne water droplets) that contains Legionella. Most healthy people exposed to Legionella do not get sick; people at increased risk include the immunocompromised, persons with a chronic lung disease like emphysema, the elderly, and current or former smokers. Outbreaks of Legionnaires' disease, which kills and afflicts more people in the United States than any other reportable waterborne disease, are tracked and reported by CDC and occur when two or more people are exposed to Legionella in the same place and get sick at about the same time.2 Legionnaires' disease outbreaks are commonly associated with buildings or structures with complex water systems, like hotels and resorts, long-term healthcare facilities, hospitals, and cruise ships. However, the actual disease burden of Legionnaires' disease is generally acknowledged to be underreported; most illnesses (96%) are sporadic cases for which the primary exposure source of Legionella is never identified.
2019 NASEM Report Highlights
Chapter 4 of the new NASEM report addresses strategies and applications for Legionella control in building water systems, including temperature control, disinfection, flow and flushing management, plumbing material selection, distal devices (i.e., plumbing fixtures far-removed from centralized water treatment and heating), and prevention of aerosols. It covers potable water supply, large institutional buildings and households, cooling towers and humidifiers, and hot tubs. Chapter 5 covers regulations and guidelines for Legionella management. Multiple strategies and technologies can be considered as their effectiveness are often closely related. For example, optimized flow and removal of premise plumbing "dead ends" is required for effective delivery and maintenance of heat shocks as well as chemical disinfectants.
Below are some key findings and recommendations from the NASEM report:
All public buildings, including hotels, businesses, schools, apartments, and government buildings, should have a water management plan or program to reduce the risk of Legionella growth and spread.
A minimum disinfectant residual level should be required throughout public water systems with treatment performance validated by routine monitoring for Legionella in the distribution system. How best to do this should be researched.
Although it is unclear to what extent disinfection residuals can consistently achieve Legionella control within premise plumbing, recent research shows that monochloramine better controls Legionella risk in building water systems than free chlorine, but the reasons for the improved performance are not yet clear.
Hot-water heater temperatures should be maintained above 60°C (140°F) and exceed 55°C (131°F) at distant plumbing fixtures; maintaining temperatures outside Legionella's preferred growth range of 25°C to 43°C (77°F to 109°F) is one of the key strategies for Legionella control.
Guidance and improved education about Legionella management are needed for homeowners, especially for at-risk subpopulations such as the elderly.
To help protect high-risk occupant populations, low-flow fixtures should not be allowed in hospitals and long-term care facilities; low-flow fixtures like faucets and showers increase water age, restrict disinfectant levels, and decrease disinfection provided by high-water temperatures.
Green building codes can complicate and increase Legionella management and risk by increasing water residence times, decreasing or eliminating disinfectant residuals, and lowering hot-water temperatures, particularly at distant plumbing fixtures. Criteria for certifying green buildings as well as energy- and water-conservation features should account for risk factors for Legionella.
The Future of Legionella Management
We cannot control or understand what we do not measure and there is a great need to invest in systematic and quantitative studies on the occurrence of Legionella bacteria in building water systems. As new methods gain acceptance, more data on how effective the multi-barrier approaches are will be forthcoming. This will require partnerships between government agencies, water utilities, and building managers to ultimately control and reverse the trends of this disease.

Reducing Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Inequalities around the World
It is unsettling to realize that in our high-tech world there are still large segments of the population that lack access to the drinking water and sanitation services most of us take for granted. The theme of this year's World Water Week, Water for Society: Including All, seems particularly apt in light of this observation. Meanwhile, a new report by UNICEF and the World Health Organization (image at right) provides a "special focus" on global "WASH" (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) inequalities. A product of the Joint Monitoring Program, the report concludes that while significant progress has been made toward achieving universal access to water, sanitation, and hygiene, progress is uneven. And although there is a laudable commitment at the heart of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda to "leave no one behind," the reality is there are many groups potentially in that precarious position. ...

Addressing Water Scarcity: Future Plans for U.S. Water Reuse
by Chris Wiant, MPH, PhD
Although snow-capped mountains are visible from much of Denver where I live, Colorado is one of 40 states that anticipate water scarcity challenges in the next decade. The Water Quality & Health Council has written dozens of articles on drinking water quality and the public health imperatives of safe treatment, disinfection, storage, and distribution. Yet water quality goes hand in hand with water availability, use, conservation, and increasingly—water reuse. A newly launched report and national effort led by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Draft National Water Reuse Action Plan, is making the news. The plan succinctly puts these needs and connections into perspective: "Safe and reliable water supplies for human consumption, agriculture, business, industry, recreation, and healthy ecosystems are critical to our nation's communities and economy." Water scarcity challenges are also global; two of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals emphasize water reuse.... Read More »

I listed my business for sale and tried to sell it myself on Gumtree for $50,000. After 4 months I decided to call Peter Fennell in. He advised I had under-priced my business and should place it on the market for $99,000.
Peter placed my business on the market over Christmas and by February we had an offer of the asking price. Peter then communicated with the Solicitors and kept me up-to-date through the whole process.
I would highly recommend Peter to anyone looking to sell their business.

Scientists create cloaking device to block touch in groundbreaking 'princess and the pea' experiment - and say it really could result in a better night's sleep
Theoretical research could lead to new types of super-thin mattresses
Coned material can disguise any object hidden under it
It consists of needle-shaped elements that direct forces of touching fingers
Each structure is built around the object that needs to be concealed
By Mark Prigg

Researchers have unveiled a radical cloaking device that can stop a device being touched.
Dubbed the 'princess and the pea' experiment, it builds on work to develop optical, heat and sound cloaking devices.
The researchers even say their work could lead to a new generation of super comfortable thin mattresses.
Researchers have unveiled a radical cloaking device that can stop a device being touched. Dubbed the 'princess and the pea' experiment, it builds on work to develop optical, heat and sound cloaking devices.The material consists of needle-shaped elements that direct the forces of the touching finger (pictured)
HOW THE CLOAKING DEVICE WORKS
In the invisibility cloak produced, a hard cylinder is inserted into the bottom layer.
Any objects to be hidden can be put into its cavity.
If a light foam or many layers of cotton would be placed above the hard cylinder, the cylinder would be more difficult to touch, but could still be felt as a form.
The metamaterial structure directs the forces of the touching finger such that the cylinder is hidden completely.
Invisibility cloaks were previously developed for various senses.
Objects can be hidden from light, heat or sound.
However, hiding an object from being touched still remains to be accomplished.
The universe as you've never seen it before: Incredible 360... Winds travelling 3,000 miles per SECOND found near...
Karschule Institute of Technology scientists have now succeeded in creating a volume in which an object can be hidden from touch, similar to a pea under the mattress of a princess in the famous fable.
'It is like in Hans-Christian Andersen's fairy tale about the princess and the pea,' said Tiemo Bückmann, KIT, the first author of the article.
'The princess feels the pea in spite of the mattresses.
'When using our new material, however, one mattress would be sufficient for the princess to sleep well.'
The material consists of precisely calculated needle-shaped elements and is based on a so-called metamaterial that consists of a polymer.
The metamaterial structure directs the forces of the touching finger such that a cylinder, or other object, is hidden completely.
'We build the structure around the object to be hidden,' said Bückmann.
Researchers claim the device could lead to new ultra thin mattresses (stock image pictured). The 'invisibility cloak' is based on a so-called metamaterial that consists of a polymer, and each structure is built around the object to be hidden
'In this structure, strength depends on the location in a defined way,'
'The precision of the components combined with the size of the complete arrangement was one of the big obstacles to the development of the mechanical invisibility cloak.'
The metamaterial is a crystalline material structured with sub-micrometer accuracy. It consists of needle-shaped cones, whose tips meet.
The size of the contact points is calculated precisely to reach the mechanical properties desired.
In this way, a structure is built, through which a finger or a measurement instrument cannot feel its way.
The mechanical invisibility cloak represents pure physical fundamental research, but might open up the door to interesting applications in a few years from now, the team say.
Examples are very thin, light, and still comfortable camping mattresses, or carpets hiding cables and pipelines below.

Das Kloster Dobrilugk () war eine Zisterzienserabtei in der Lausitz. Auf ihrem Gebiet entstand nach dem Ende des geistlichen Lebens Mitte des 17. Jahrhunderts das heutige Schloss Doberlug.

Geschichte
Die Abtei wurde am 1. Mai 1165, dem Tag des heiligen Königs Sigismund, gestiftet und stand unter dem Patronat der Heiligen Sigismund und Heinrich. Sie bestand bis zu ihrer Aufhebung in der Reformationszeit. Die Mönche wurden auf Initiative des Markgrafen der Ostmark / Lausitz Dietrich von Landsberg ins Land geholt. Markgraf Dietrich wurde in seinen Gründungsbemühungen von seinen wettinischen Verwandten, von Erzbischof Wichmann von Magdeburg und dem masowischen Bischof Werner von Płock unterstützt. Bischof Werner brachte Reliquien des heiliggesprochenen Kaisers Heinrich mit nach Dobrilugk, die er zu Weihnachten 1165 in Aachen von Friedrich Barbarossa geschenkt bekommen hatte.

Durch großzügige Stiftungen wuchs der Besitz des Klosters schnell an. 1234 besaß das Kloster bereits 18 Dörfer und seit 1240 konnte der finanzkräftige Konvent seinen Grundbesitz durch Zukauf erweitern. In einer Urkunde von 1373 bestätigte Kaiser Karl IV. den Mönchen den Besitz von 40 Dörfern und fünf klösterlichen Wirtschaftshöfen. Unter der Herrschaft des Klosters stand auch die Kleinstadt Kirchhain, der die Zisterzienser bereits 1235 einen Markt bewilligt hatten. In der landesherrlichen Stadt Luckau und in Lübben (Spreewald) hatte das Kloster Höfe, die vor allem dem Handel mit in der Klosterherrschaft erzeugten Agrarprodukten dienten. Dem Kloster gehörten unter anderem die Dörfer Särchen, das heutige Annahütte, Dobristroh, Drochow und das heute wüst liegende Dorf Nossedil. Wie alle Zisterzienserabteien war Dobrilugk vom Bischofszehnt befreit.

Das Stift war am mittelalterlichen Landesausbau in der westlichen Lausitz beteiligt. Siedler aus den westlich angrenzenden Altsiedelgebieten Sachsens und Thüringens sowie vom Niederrhein (Flamen) legten in der Lausitz feuchte Niederungen trocken, rodeten Wälder, richteten Ackerflächen her und gründeten auch im Klostergebiet Dörfer. Die meisten Untertanen der Abtei waren jedoch Sorben.

Im Jahre 1349 kam der Plan auf, die in Wittenberg liegenden Gebeine askanischer Herzöge nach Dobrilugk umzubetten. Dieses zwischen Kaiser Karl IV. und Herzog Rudolf I. von Sachsen begonnene Vorhaben, kam später nicht zu Stande, zeugt jedoch vom damals bestehenden Ansehen Dobrilugks.

Ende des 14. Jahrhunderts begann der schleichende Niedergang von Dobrilugk. Die Mönche gaben die Eigenwirtschaft auf und lebten ausschließlich von den eingenommenen Pachten und Zinsen. Es fanden sich nämlich nicht mehr genügend Männer, die als Laienbrüder (Konversen) in das Kloster eintraten und die körperlichen Arbeiten verrichteten. Im Jahre 1431 wurde Dobrilugk von den Hussiten geplündert.

Das Stift Dobrilugk hatte Sitz und Stimme in der Prälatenkurie des neuzeitlichen Niederlausitzer Landtags.
Ein tiefer Einschnitt kam mit der Reformation. Seit den zwanziger Jahren des 16. Jahrhunderts verließen Mönche den Konvent und wandten sich der neuen Lehre zu. Die klösterliche Disziplin und auch die Wirtschaft des Stifts gerieten in Verfall. Der letzte Abt setzte sich 1533 mit den Kleinodien des Klosters ab. Hinzu kam, dass der Habsburger Ferdinand I., der als Böhmenkönig Herr des Klosters war, hohe Kontributionen zur Finanzierung des Türkenkriegs von den Niederlausitzer Klöstern forderte. Im Jahre 1541 besetzte schließlich der sächsische Kurfürst Johann Friedrich Dobrilugk, wegen einer Geldforderung an den böhmischen König. Die Mönche verließen das Kloster und der Konvent zerstreute sich.

Zwar konnte Ferdinand I. die Klosterherrschaft im Schmalkaldischen Krieg wieder zurückerobern und erneut in die Niederlausitz eingliedern, aber auch der katholische Herrscher ließ keine Mönche mehr in das Kloster einziehen, sondern verpfändete die große Herrschaft nacheinander an Angehörige der Adelsfamilien Schlick und Gersdorff. Heinrich von Gersdorff ließ um 1550 anstelle des Abtshauses ein Jagdschloss errichten. Der letzte adlige Besitzer Heinrich Anselm von Promnitz verkaufte Dobrilugk 1624 an Johann Georg I. von Sachsen, der kurz zuvor auch Pfandherr der gesamten Niederlausitz geworden war. Die Niederlausitzer Stände konnten aber durchsetzen, dass die Klosterherrschaft Teil des Markgraftums blieb. So entstand die kuriose Situation, dass die Herrschaft Dobrilugk verwaltungstechnisch zum Teil kursächsisch, zum Teil niederlausitzisch war. Steuern zahlten die Untertanen in die Landeskasse der Niederlausitz, die Gerichtshoheit wurde aber von kurfürstlichen Amtshauptleuten ausgeübt. Appelliert werden durfte nur an das Kammergericht in Dresden und nicht mehr an das Niederlausitzer Landgericht.

Unter der wettinischen Seitenlinie Sekundogenitur Sachsen-Merseburg (1656–1738) war Dobrilugk Residenz der gleichnamigen Herzöge und die Region gelangte zu einer gewissen Blüte: Ab 1664 wurde die Stadt Dobrilugk angelegt.

Zeittafel

1005 Dobraluh wird vom Chronisten Bischof Thietmar von Merseburg in einer Beschreibung der Feldzüge Kaiser Heinrichs II. gegen Polen erstmals erwähnt.

1165 Dietrich I., Markgraf der Ostmark/Lausitz, gründet am 1. Mai das Kloster Dobrilugk.

Es ist unbekannt, wann die ersten Mönche im Kloster Einzug hielten und ob kriegerische Auseinandersetzungen für die sehr zögerlichen Anfänge des Stifts mitverantwortlich waren. Möglicherweise behinderte der Einfall von Lutizen und Pommern im Sommer 1179 die Entwicklung des Klosters. Sicher ist, dass in der Gegend von Lübben, später in Zinna und Jüterbog gekämpft wurde.

1199  Der Gründungsbesitz des Klosters wird urkundlich genannt.

1209  Der Bau der Klosterkirche war so weit fortgeschritten, dass die Markgräfin Elisabeth, Gemahlin Konrads II., darin bestattet werden konnte.

Nach dem Tode Markgraf Konrads von der Ostmark/Lausitz am 6. Mai 1210 wurde Markgraf Dietrich (der Bedrängte) von Meißen auf der Burg Landsberg mit den Fürstentum Ostmark / Lausitz belehnt und war von jetzt an Herr des Klosters Dobrilugk. In der Folge blieb es bei der meißnischen Linie der Wettiner.

1210/11 Walther von der Vogelweide erwähnt in einem seiner Gedichte ("Die Welt war gelb, rot und blau" = Lachmann 75,25–76,21) das Kloster Dobrilugk ("Toberlû") als einen damals noch nicht sehr einladenden Ort. Viel später, in der Zeit Jacob Grimms galt es dann als sehr berühmtes Kloster "coenobium famosissimum".

1228  Als Weihejahr der Kirche angenommen.

1232  Jahr der Gründung eines Ackerhofes in Althöfchen an der Obra (in Polen), aus dem

1286  das Tochterkloster Neu Dobrilugk (Kloster Bledzew) hervorging.

1234  Die Klosterdörfer des Kernbesitzes Werenzhain, Kirchhain, Hennersdorf, Eichholz, Lugau, Schönborn, Lindena, Fischwasser und der Ackerhof Schulz werden urkundlich genannt.

1253 In einer Papsturkunde werden zusätzlich zu den 1234 genannten Dörfern als zum Kloster gehörend aufgeführt: Kleinhof, Frankena, Friedersdorf, Gruhno, Münchhausen, Rückersdorf, Staupitz sowie die Dörfer westlich von Luckau: Falkenberg und Kemlitz, des Weiteren Bönitz und Münchsdorf (wüst) im späteren Kreis Liebenwerda und bei Torgau an der Elbe Graditz sowie die heute wüsten Dörfer Kösmatitz, Kranewitz und Wiesitz.

1301  Die Stadt Lübben gehört bis etwa 1329 zum Kloster, so dass der Dobrilugker Abt auch Herr zu Lübben ist.

1373  Die Besitzbestätigungsurkunde Karls IV. nennt 42 Dörfer und mehrere Ackerhöfe als dem Kloster gehörend.

1431  Hussiten zerstören und plündern das Kloster.

1434  Kaiser Sigismund bestätigt dem Kloster 65 Dörfer und Ackerhöfe, damit ist wohl der Höhepunkt hinsichtlich der Besitzungen erreicht. Der nördlichste Ort ist Schollen bei Luckau, im Osten Dobristroh (heute Freienhufen), im Süden Staupitz und im Westen Kunzwerda bei Torgau.

1534  Abt Johann von Paul Fischer lässt eine Glocke gießen.

1541 Kurfürst Johann Friedrich von Sachsen lässt das zu Böhmen gehörende Kloster besetzen und im Zuge der Reformation säkularisieren. Aus dem dazu angefertigten Besitzverzeichnis geht hervor, dass noch alle Orte und Ackerhöfe des Kernbesitzes dem Kloster gehören (andere Orte sind zum Teil verpfändet). Der nun weltliche Besitz bildet die Grundlage der Herrschaft und des späteren Amtes Dobrilugk.

1624  Die baufällige Klosterabtei und das Hospiz werden in den Neubau des Dobrilugker Schlosses einbezogen.

1637  Die Kirche wird im Dreißigjährigen Krieg durch schwedische Soldaten schwer beschädigt.

1676  Die Klosterkirche wird umgebaut und als evangelische Schloss- und Pfarrkirche eingeweiht. Orgelbauer Christoph Junge baut eine Orgel mit 20 Registern ein.

1696  Gründung der Kantorei Dobrilugk.

1728  schenkt Herzog Moritz Wilhelm der Kantorei zwei Pauken.

1779  Brand in der Schlosskirche.

nach 1789 Orgelbauer Johann Christian Kayser errichtet eine neue Orgel.

1852  Der Mönchs- und der Konversenflügel der Klausur fallen einem Feuer zum Opfer und werden abgerissen; Kirche und Refektorium bleiben erhalten.

1875  Die Sauer-Orgel (Opus 209) mit zwei Manualen und Pedal (27 Register) wird eingebaut.

1905  beginnend wird die Kirche bis 1909 durchgreifend restauriert und nach Ursprungszustand umgebaut.

1955  Die große Glocke im Vierungsturm wird geweiht.

1973  wird eine Kleinorgel (Orgelbau Voigt) für die Sakristei angeschafft.

1996  Instandsetzungsarbeiten an den gesamten Dach- und Turmflächen beginnen. Es findet die 300-Jahr-Feier der Kantoreigesellschaft statt.

1997  Die Kantorei kauft ein Orgelpositiv (Orgelbau Kemper).

1998  Die Posaune 16′ und die Trompete 8′ werden wieder in die Sauer-Orgel eingebaut. Im September wird mit einer Festwoche dem 900-jährigen Jubiläum des Zisterzienserordens gedacht.

2003  Die von der NVA zur Zeit der DDR auf dem Klostergelände errichteten Gebäude werden abgerissen.

2004  Die Kirche wird wiederholt restauriert.

2005 1000-Jahr-Feier Doberlug

'Winning a National award doesn't mean I have to restrict myself to performance-based roles'
Priya Mani, the national award-winning actress was first noticed in Telugu in Pellaina Kothalo (even though her debut film Evare Atagaadu sank without a trace).
But she slowly started to etch her success story with films like Yamadonga, Hare Ram and Drona (which drew more attention for her swimsuit act). Equally at ease in glam roles as well as in the girl-next-door ones, she carried off any role with elan.
As her new Telugu film Mitrudu opposite senior actor Nandamuri Balakrishna gets ready to hit theatres on May 1, Radhika Rajamani caught up with the actress to know more about the film.
How did you get to sign Mitrudu?
I got a call from Rajamouli Sir's father Mr Vijayendra Prasad, who is the writer of the film. We had interacted soon after Yamadongar eleased as he had a script for me but then that didn't work out. Then Mr Prasad again called saying he has a script and it's with Balakrishna. He told me he would ask the director to give me a call and narrate the story. He said, 'If you like it, you can do it.' Then Mahadev (director) called me and narrated the one-liner to me. The one-liner sounded pretty interesting, so I thought why not.

What were they thinking??? What a let down! All that hype for months and months about the MOST revolutionary, BEST waterfowl shotgun ever to be released... ONLY 3" chambered? It's like a Super Black Eagle II and the Super Nova combined. What I do like. Now 72% less recoil (SBEII 48%) which is great! Just okay price, approx. $1249 retail. Cool 3 piece break down system. Sweet new case. Better Release Lever. What are everyones thoughts?


FIJI Surfing Association's development officer Andy Eames took home the Gold at the Beachouse Bash surfing competition which was held at Fiji Beachouse on Sunday the 9th of March.
Eames only just managed to win the highly contested Male Open Shortboard competition ahead of Paul Chong-Sue and Edwin Gardiner both of whom provided stiff competition.
In the Girls Open Shortboard Division, Suva girls Talei Lovell and Sirkka Killman took out first and second place with newcomer Samantha Suendermann taking out third.
"The weather conditions were not as good as they could have been, the light onshore wind made for some tricky conditions but contestants definitely made the most of the 2 foot waves," said visiting Australian meteorologist Steven Lyon.
This competition is the first held by the Coral Coast Boardriders, a newly formed club within the Fiji Surfing Association. The Association is excited about the upcoming competitions in 2014 and welcomes all new members. "FSA is all about promoting and developing surfing in the Fiji and we look forward to seeing more people participate in the event calendar. It's also a great way to meet surfers from around the country and have a bit of fun in competition!" says Alana Tilly FSA member.
The next Fiji Surfing Association Competition will be held at the Suva Lighthouse on the 22nd of this month and hosted by the Christian Surfers Club.


The research will be based on six school-based case studies of primary schools. The data collection methods and number of participants to be applied in each case study are shown in the Table. There will be small variations according to the size of the school for example.
The interviews with children will be similar to those carried out in the ChALK project. Following a group activity about knowledge, the children are asked to talk together about some 'big' questions, such as ' What is knowledge?". After this they carry out a written task, just like the initial activity, as individuals. We are seeking parental and child consent to video or audio tape the discussions to permit transcription and analysis.
The classroom observation will be partly time sampled and part field notes and will be designed to pick up 'epistemic opportunities' where the teacher may or may not be inclined to encourage the child's existing knowledge, including that acquired out of school to be voiced.

The Reverse Diaspora: African Immigrants and the Return Home
Among African immigrants to America, there is a belief, sometimes uttered, sometimes not, that eventually they will return to Africa. Why is there this urge in the African immigrant community to return to their country of birth, to "return home"? How actualized is this urge? Is it some fond yet quixotic longing to return to what was remembered as old and familiar? Or is it the product of a more deep-seated nostalgia, one supplemented by careful planning and serious intent? To answer this question I set out to craft a survey in which the questions, and answers, would provide insight into why these immigrants to America, many who are citizens, many who have been in the US for decades, would decide to leave and return to places they departed long ago.

NBAD and FGB merger progresses as boards of directors vote in favour
Mahmoud Kassem July 3, 2016
National Bank of Abu Dhabi and FGB said their boards have unanimously voted to recommend to their shareholders a merger of the two Abu Dhabi listed banks in what would create a lender with $175 billion in assets, the largest in the Middle East.
The banks are proposing that the deal be done through a share swap in which FGB shareholders will receive 1.254 NBAD shares for each FGB share, the banks said in a statement. That gives FGB shareholders a 3.9 per cent discount based on the closing share prices on June 30, it said. Shareholders however would first need to give the proposal the green light before it goes through.
Under the proposed terms, FGB shareholders would own about 52 per cent of the combined bank and NBAD shareholders the balance. It would leave the Government of Abu Dhabi and related entities with a 37 per cent interest in the bank. Shares of FGB would be delisted and the bank would be called National Bank of Abu Dhabi.
Abdulhamid Saeed, currently board member and managing director of FGB, would be the chief executive for the combined bank.
"Now, more than ever, the UAE will benefit from a strong, financial partner with the capacity to meet new challenges, drive domestic growth, and support the country's ever-greater connections to the global economy," said Nasser Ahmed Alsowaidi, chairman of NBAD.
"Expansion across fast growing emerging markets presents a vast business opportunity for our customers and for us, as a larger, stronger, combined bank. We will have the capital, expertise and international networks to be the preferred financial partner for anyone doing business along the West-East corridor."

Suharto (February 20, 1921 – January 27, 2008) was an Indonesian military and political leader. He was a military officer in the Indonesian National Revolution. He is better known as the second President of Indonesia. He held the office for a long time, from 1967 to 1998.
Suharto seized power from his predecessor, the first president of Indonesia Sukarno. For this, he used some force, but also took some political maneuvers. At the time, there was instability and unrest inside and outside of Indonesia. This helped him come to power. He took three decades to change the regime to work along militarist lines, with a strong central government. His movement was known as "Orde Baru". As he took an anti-communist position which he could defend, several Western governments supported him both in economic and political matters. This was during an era that is known as Cold War. For most of his three-decade rule, Indonesia experienced significant economic growth and industrialization. His rule, however, led to political purges and the deaths of millions of suspected Indonesian communists and Chinese-Indonesians. He also made some laws against communist parties and ethnic Chinese.
His New Order administration's authoritarian and increasingly corrupt practices led to much discontent in the 1990s. Suharto's almost unquestioned authority over Indonesian affairs slipped dramatically when the Asian financial crisis lowered Indonesians' standard of living. People inside the military and other institutions no longer supported him. There were some problems inside the country during the early 1990s. Suharto became more and more isolated, in a political way. After mass demonstrations in 1998, Suharto was forced to resign. Suharto had been the face of Indonesia for over 30 years. After retiring, he lived in seclusion. There were people who wanted to try him for genocide. This failed however, because he had a very bad health. His legacy remains hotly debated and contested both in Indonesia and abroad.
Like many Javanese, Suharto has only one name. In contexts where his religion is being discussed he is sometimes called Haji or el-Haj Mohammed Suharto, but this Islamic title is not part of his formal name or generally used. The spelling "Suharto" has been official in Indonesia since 1947 but the older spelling Soeharto is still frequently used.
Suharto died January 27, 2008, at 1:10 P.M. local time due to organ failure. He died at Pertamina Hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia. He was taken off life support. He was buried at a family mausoleum near Solo town.

feed the neighbors koi fish and cat.
Apparently, she likes to spoil the fish and overfeed them. Oops!
I just love her curiosity and fascination with nature and animals.
Honestly, I think we are all born with it and it just wears off most of us as we age.
I remember being absolutely mesmerized by animals myself. In fact, I can admit I was slightly smitten with animals…thinking I was a natural dog trainer at one point and had even convinced myself I was an animal whisperer - having a deep connection and understanding of all things related to nature. When I watched Grizzly Adams I just knew bears and I would absolutely connect instantly should I ever chance to encounter them.
I recall one day in particular, when I was about eight or nine, I was getting ready to go somewhere with my grandparents, (most likely to the Navy Base because we went there all of the time to shop at the Commissary). I was waiting on my grandparents outside so we could load up in the van when I suddenly spotted our barn cat trotting by with a baby bird in it's mouth. I immediately chased the cat until it gave in to my demands to drop it. I tenderly scooped up the frightened and confused baby bird, cradled it close up against me and ran up to the barn where I thought it would be safe. I quickly constructed a nest in the corner of one of the empty stalls out of the hay we fed to the horses. My grandparents were calling so I bid farewell to the bird and promised to return later to feed it and care for it. When we arrived back to the house hours later I ran straight to the nest only to discover it's sweet little body to be lifeless. I was heartbroken.
I had a traumatic experience with a little duckling too that still haunts me to this day. But I'm not going to focus on that…I'd rather love on my sweet Ella today and get lost in how sweet and innocent she is... And how happy and lucky I am to be her mom. She is SUCH an awesome person.
No face shots of Ella this time - the dermabond still hasn't fallen off from our trip with her to Centra Care. It will be 3 weeks tomorrow since she fell and hit her head while playing with her BFF. We were told it would fall off within a week. Thinking I was misinformed?
I do have to say…it's been funny to watch people when we are out in public. Not one person has asked "What happened to your head?" I truly believe people think it's a birthmark or something. It looks a little creepy I do have to say. But even people that know her and have seen her before don't even ask. I can't help but wonder if they are frantically trying to remember if she's always had the "birthmark" and just to be safe they just don't ask. It's kind of humorous. Definitely can't wait until it's gone.


I love to come here to my space and share my thoughts with all of you and athough I am always sincere and sometimes opinionated, I don't often share my deepest feelings of inner conflict here. As time progresses though, I have noticed that many bloggers sometimes do share their woes and bear their souls out loud with no regard for judgement or embarrassment when exposing their raw feelings. Bloggers are like having an extended circle of family-like friends. We speak freely and receive feedback with encouragement and support for one another. So it is with this realization I have decided to share a bit of what is going on in my life.
I suppose that only now I feel comfortable talking about a tender topic of terminal illness. Perhaps after having read many articles and books on grieving and loss, particularly the writings of two writer friends works that I respect: The blog of Elaine Mansfield who writes on bereavement and author Carol Balawyder – Mourning has Broken, it has helped to open up and share.
If any of you have read my book – Conflicted Hearts, you will have read how I encountered great losses in my life when I lost my aunt who was like a mother to me and also the loss my dear father. I don't pretend to know anyone's pain in loss because only those who walk in the shoes of grief can truly know how it feels. Nonetheless, I am a very empathetic person and I get very sad when I hear of or am around others who are suffering.
Although I don't have any biological children of my own, my husband of fifteen years has four daughters and although they still have their mother and we are all within four years apart in age, I am friends with them all and refer to them all as my step-daughters.
I couldn't even pretend to know the pain of the possibility of losing a child; certainly I would consider that the worst death to grieve of all. No matter how old a child grows to be, it is still always somebody's child.
We found out that my step-daughter Sue had the dreaded cancer, last July, just after her birthday. My husband is the type of man who doesn't like to talk about bad things and if you didn't know him, you would wonder how he couldn't talk about his sad feelings and worries and still appear as though nothing is wrong. But I know him well. HIs mind is always going, always worrying about something, he is very driven. If there is any way to make something work, he will find it. If he can't, he will carry his frustration within.
I have managed through the years to learn how to break into his thoughts and I know how to handle him with kid gloves in delicate situations. But I have had to make some tough decisions these past few weeks about how much I knew about his daughter's situation and how much I wanted him to know. His faith in Sue's healing has never unfaltered. He never believed anything other than she could beat the disease. I speak often with another daughter and we both saw the signs of unhappy things to come with her sister's prognosis. I worry about my husband's health and didn't want to break his faith. I agonized over wanting to tell him the reality and burst his balloon of hope to ease the fall or to let him feel optimistic in his belief and then have to watch him crash.
His daughters and I agreed that he didn't need the details so he wouldn't have to worry more than he already was. As Sue remained stoic and didn't care to talk about the inevitable, things have been drastically sliding. There are no treatments left for her and she has gotten to ill to take on a grueling round of experimental medicine. Her fragile body could not take the pummeling that she would have had to endure when the doctors hoped she may have been up to when the procedure was first introduced. Although Sue has an amazing hopeful attitude and never gives up hope, her body retaliates. She has been in and out of the hospital for several weeks now and relies on morphine to combat her pain. Even though her lymphoma had spread through her body she still had many days when she is still just simply – Sue. She never complains or laments "Why me?" and continued to push herself to go out with her friends and live.
My husband would beam with light when he'd see her and he'd say with such certainty how strong she is and his belief wouldn't let him feel anything but that she would beat it. I questioned myself many times whether or not this was his hope or if it was denial; but I dared not ask. He never hid the fact that his daughter had cancer from anyone and he'd always add that she looks good and is fighting back.
While I fought my tears back, I asked him to update me on what I had already known. My heart ached for him hearing him admit those words of surrender. Knowing he was trying desperately not to cry, and feeling my own grief for Sue, in that moment I couldn't even begin to feel his pain.
In these past few days, the situation has become grave. My step-daughter is living on borrowed days. Now I just pray for strength for Sue and my husband to get through and for me to have strength to help keep him together through this very sad journey. I pray for God to give me the right words to say when the moment comes, to keep my husband here with the living as a part of his soul dies with his daughter.
As I go through this journey and go through all the cascading emotions it really makes me wonder how fine that line between life and death is and how life becomes an oxymoron. At first we pray and hope for wellness and cures and suddenly the switch flips and we find that everything we have prayed so hard for is no longer valid because when we watch that person suffer so badly and realize there is no hope, our prayers for life suddenly become prayers for God to take them safely out of their suffering.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine.
I'm fine! I can jog all the way to Texas and back, but my daughter can't! She never could! Oh God! I am so mad I don't know what to do! I wanna know why! I wanna know *why* Shelby's life is over! I wanna know how that baby will *ever* know how wonderful his mother was! Will he *ever* know what she went through for him! Oh *God* I wanna know *why*? *Why*? Lord, I wish I could understand!
My friend, thank you for sharing yourself. Your beautiful words of concern for those you love speak volumes about the person you are. I'm so very sorry for you all. I'm embracing you in my thoughts, and I hope it fortifies your spirit to know you are loved.
Oh, Debbie, you are showing such blessed courage in these sad and most difficult times. You are a rock for your husband.
These are memories and love which Death cannot fade.
May your faith and love guide you through these sad times.
I hope I never go through what many parents do: the loss of a child. We are supposed to go first.
I feel your grief, but I do not know it as you do. We all react and feel slightly differently when faced with death. The loss of my father to cancer in 1989 still stings today when I hear of others dying of the same disease. The flashback of what cancer turned his body into is forever frozen in my mind. Morphine. The drug of choice to numb the pain of cancer. When I hear 'morphine' I see my father. He and it will be forever bound in my mind.
Which ever words you find when the time finally arrives will be the right ones because they will be spoken with love. And sometimes the best words of all are those not spoken, conveyed only by a held hand and a shoulder.
It is good your husband held onto his hope for as long as he did. It makes the days bearable. It allowed him to shine a positive light on his daughter.
Before my father passed away he told my mother he was glad that everyone treated him as if he didn't have cancer; that when they came to visit they didn't talk about his illness, but instead of the weather, the garden or life in general. It allowed him moments of freedom from the disease.
We are here in this place for only a short time, yet many of us leave a lasting impression on those we love.
I'm so sorry for everything you and your family are going through. Have faith. You'll know what to do, even if it's just being there. My thoughts are with you.
Oh Deb, I'm so sorry to hear your news – thinking of you and praying that God will be your comfort and strength in difficult times.
Cancer also took away our Aunt Lucy from us two years ago. I couldn't believe that a very healthy, lively, and energetic person like her could be taken away from us like that, so quickly. It was painful seeing her suffer while fighting to survive. She had more plans for us, she said… and would want to spend more time with us. It was like looking down at her drowning but couldn't find a way to save her.
Thanks for sharing yourself to us, Ms Deb. Thanks for the trust. Know that we're here for you, thinking of you, and keeping you and your loved ones in our prayers. May God's love ease your pain and strengthen you in this difficult time.
It changes everything to feel our smallness and helplessness in the face of mortality. Why? Where do they go? Why is the suffering so great? I feel for your husband and you and all your family.
I'm glad your husband is talking now. Facing death and being honest about it and expressing our love in the face of it brought much heart connection for Vic and me and our sons. It was a spiritual experience, Debby. Not one we wanted.
When I attended my friends giving birth, I felt that same miracle as a soul crosses the sacred threshold. It isn't easy being born either. So now that there is no pretending with all of you, so everyone can be together and be with your daughter–and you'll still be together and with her when she's gone. And it pisses me off, too. My friend's 38 year old son died recently. It should not be and yet it is. Thank you for telling us, Debby. I send prayers for peace and mercy.
Thanks ever so much for your kindness Elaine. Your words are appreciated and you of all people know this journey only too well. Thanks for your prayers Elaine they count for a lot in my personal prayer bank.
I'm so sorry to hear about this, DG. I have two kids, and I can't even fathom how I would handle, if I could handle, something like that. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Debby. My heart goes out to you all. Terrible about your step-daughter but it's better that your husband now knows the seriousness of her condition. It may have been too much of a shock to him otherwise. I wish you all well. Words are only words but they are all we have to share at this time.

Q: ANTLR: "missing attribute access on rule scope" problem I am trying to build an ANTLR grammar that parses tagged sentences such as:
DT The NP cat VB ate DT a NP rat

and have the grammar:
fragment TOKEN  :   (('A'..'Z') | ('a'..'z'))+;
fragment WS :   (' ' | '\t')+;
WSX :   WS;
DTTOK   :   ('DT' WS TOKEN);
NPTOK   :   ('NP' WS TOKEN);
nounPhrase:  (DTTOK WSX NPTOK);
chunker : nounPhrase {System.out.println("chunk found "+"("+$nounPhrase+")");};

The grammar generator generates the "missing attribute access on rule scope: nounPhrase" in the last line.
[I am still new to ANTLR and although some grammars work it's still trial and error. I also frequently get an "OutOfMemory" error when running grammars as small as this - any help welcome.]
I am using ANTLRWorks 1.3 to generate the code and am running under Java 1.6.

A: In the original grammer, why not include the attribute it is asking for, most likely:
chunker : nounPhrase {System.out.println("chunk found "+"("+$nounPhrase.text+")");};

Each of your rules (chunker being the one I can spot quickly) have attributes (extra information) associated with them.  You can find a quick list of the different attributes for the different types of rules at http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/Attribute+and+Dynamic+Scopes, would be nice if descriptions were put on the web page for each of those attributes (like for the start and stop attribute for the parser rules refer to tokens from your lexer - which would allow you to get back to your line number and position).
I think your chunker rule should just be changed slightly, instead of $nounPhrase you should use $nounPhrase.text.  text is an attribute for your nounPhrase rule.
You might want to do a little other formating as well, usually the parser rules (start with lowercase letter) appear before the lexer rules (start with uppercase letter)
PS. When I type in the box the chunker rule is starting on a new line but in my original answer it didn't start on a new line.

A: "missing attribute access" means that you've referenced a scope ($nounPhrase) rather than an attribute of the scope (such as $nounPhrase.text).
In general, a good way to troubleshoot problems with attributes is to look at the generated parser method for the rule in question.
For example, my initial attempt at creating a new rule when I was a little rusty:
multiple_names returns [List<Name> names]
@init {
    names = new ArrayList<Name>(4);
}
 : a=fullname ' AND ' b=fullname { names.add($a.value); names.add($b.value); };

resulted in "unknown attribute for rule fullname". So I tried
multiple_names returns [List<Name> names]
@init {
    names = new ArrayList<Name>(4);
}
 : a=fullname ' AND ' b=fullname { names.add($a); names.add($b); };

which results in "missing attribute access". Looking at the generated parser method made it clear what I needed to do though. While there are some cryptic pieces, the parts relevant to scopes (variables) are easily understood:
public final List<Name> multiple_names() throws RecognitionException {
    List<Name> names = null;        // based on "returns" clause of rule definition
    Name a = null;                  // based on scopes declared in rule definition
    Name b = null;                  // based on scopes declared in rule definition
    names = new ArrayList<Name>(4); // snippet inserted from `@init` block

    try {
        pushFollow(FOLLOW_fullname_in_multiple_names42);
        a=fullname();
        state._fsp--;
        match(input,189,FOLLOW_189_in_multiple_names44);
        pushFollow(FOLLOW_fullname_in_multiple_names48);
        b=fullname();
        state._fsp--;
        names.add($a); names.add($b);// code inserted from {...} block
    }
    catch (RecognitionException re) {
        reportError(re);
        recover(input,re);
    }
    finally {
        // do for sure before leaving
    }
    return names;                    // based on "returns" clause of rule definition
}

After looking at the generated code, it's easy to see that the fullname rule is returning instances of the Name class, so what I needed in this case was simply:
multiple_names returns [List<Name> names]
@init {
    names = new ArrayList<Name>(4);
}
 : a=fullname ' AND ' b=fullname { names.add(a); names.add(b); };

The version you need in your situation may be different, but you'll generally be able to figure it out pretty easily by looking at the generated code.

A: If you accidentally do something silly like $thing.$attribute where you mean $thing.attribute, you will also see the missing attribute access on rule scope error message. (I know this question was answered a long time ago, but this bit of trivia might help someone else who sees the error message!)

A: Answering question after having found a better way...
WS  :    (' '|'\t')+;
TOKEN   :   (('A'..'Z') | ('a'..'z'))+;
dttok   :   'DT' WS TOKEN;
nntok   :   'NN' WS TOKEN;
nounPhrase :    (dttok WS nntok);
chunker :  nounPhrase ;

The problem was I was getting muddled between the lexer and the parser (this is apparently very common). The uppercase items are lexical, the lowercase in the parser. This now seems to work. (NB I have changed NP to NN).

We first met Jodi in January of 2011 where Jodi was the bridesmaid for Iain and Leah. Not long after the wedding Jodi and Simon (better known as Dobbie) asked us to photograph their special day. They had chosen Jodi's parents property situated in the hills south of Wakefield for their venue. As if that wasn't enough to photograph a wedding in such a beautiful location, they also mentioned that Jodi and her bridesmaids were arriving to the ceremony by helicopter. Given the fact that I love choppers, we knew back then that this wedding was going to be awesome and it sure was!
Our day started with us photographing the guys at Dobbie's parents house, Dobbie's father is also called Dobbie, so when I said, " Dobbie look up", they both did.
This day may not have ended up so well. Chrissy was standing at the end of the driveway taking this shot when a car slowed down to turn off the main road, right behind it and travelling at speed was another car. To avoid contact the second car drove up on the side of the road missing Chrissy by about half a metre in the process. Chrissy said that someone was looking out for her that day, I agree!
Jodi and her bridesmaids got ready in Wakefield; when we arrived we were greeted by this wee cutey. This is Jodi's neice and she followed us around like a little puppy, asking us all sorts of questions about wedding photography and cameras, maybe a wedding photographer in the making?
Everyone in the house was buzzing with excitement.
Jodi's hair amd makeup looked gorgeous.
The laughing never stopped all day, it was really good to see Leah again.
Chrissy fell in love with!
look with their wife standing next to them?
Jodi planned to walk up the aisle wearing gumboots (she did).
Now, this is a seriously cool way to arrive to your wedding ceremony. Jodi's father is at the controls. I remember hearing Jodi's mother say, "just get them down safely"; nice flying John.
After capturing shots of the chopper from in front of the house, I made a very quick dash to the landing site on a nearby ridge. Yeap, got there in time, certainly helped that the chopper had to wind down before everyone could get out.
And this is my shot taken at the same time (our cameras are time synchronised).
Off with the gummy's and on with the shoes, the guests (and Dobbie) certainly had a good laugh – Jodi is such a character.
It was a delightful sunny day with just enough breeze to keep the heat down and what a view.
Check out the detail in the wedding dress.
With the formalities over for now, it was time for the location shots. Transportation – an old red Chevy pickup. "Dobbie, you're not going to drink and drive I hope".
It was one thing to be bounced around while hanging out of the window of our car, but to also be covered in dust – errrrrrrr. This shot makes it all worth while though!
We had cased this location out a week before the wedding, all we needed was a beautiful sunny day and a gorgeous couple – YES!
How this shot came about was, while we were taking a group shot, the pickup started to roll backwards (Apparently the handbrake doesn't work so well). That gave us an idea for a photo. Dobbie's also working on the theory, start how you want to finish, note that I said THEORY.
Sometimes photos do not give the perception of height, this is one of those. The rock that Jodi is standing on is about nine metres up from flat ground. Hence the challenge – with one hand Chrissy had to hold a very heavy light stand and at the same time make sure that the strobe light was pointing in the right direction, with the other hand she was busy swatting off sand flies. To get these shots I had to virtually lie on the side of the hill at about a 60 degree angle. In the meanwhile Jodi was standing on a rather narrow rock edge holding her veil out and taking directions from Chrissy and I – LOVE doing this stuff!
Now to get Dobbie into the scene.
MAGIC – these shots are going to look amazing in Dobbie and Jodi's photobook.
These unique wedding photos were taken looking into a horse training mirror.
This was hilarious – Go Dobbie – slap him to go faster Jodi – you are allowed to now, you're married!
Time for a kiss in the horse stables.
Next stop – a romantic bike ride in the grass (maybe not).
Come on Dobbie put some effort into it.
That's it Jodi, you show him who's the boss!
I reckon these two are going to have such a fun married life, they're both game for anything.
Now, I won't tell you what I said to make these guys laugh, it's a little X rated.
Next stop – hanging around.
Back to Jodi's parents place for the reception where the marquee looked absolutely amazing, so much time and effort was put into setting it up – well done guys.
Ching, ching. It's been the most amazing and funfilled day and the time just seemed to fly by for the location photos, I think Chrissy was rather disappointed when it ended.
But the fun goes on, told you that the laughing never stopped all day and evening.
We were kindly invited to stay on and enjoy the meal and speeches, not to mention that a couple of beers went down well also. A lot of planning goes into having the perfect day, this was the perfect wedding day! We had a ball guys and I know that Chrissy is itching to start designing your photobook – it will be awesome. Can't wait to see you soon.

Rantie: Mamelodi Sundowns considering signing former Orlando Pirates striker
Austin Ditlhobolo
18:27 BST 02/09/2019
The former Malmo FF marksman seems to have impressed the Brazilians' technical team while on trial
Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Pitso Mosimane says the club is considering signing former Orlando Pirates striker Tokelo Rantie.
The 28-year-old player has been training with the reigning Premier Soccer League (PSL) champions since July 2019 as he looks to earn himself a deal with the club.
Mosimane has already revealed they are looking to reinforce their striking department with another quality striker having signed Uruguayan hitman Mauricio Affonso two months ago.
"We have [Mauricio] Affonso and [Sammy] Seabi – and we will probably look at Tokelo, maybe we might give him a chance. You never know," Mosimane told the media.
Rantie is currently a free agent having parted ways with Cape Town City midway through last season.
The Citizens cited personal problems as a reason for the former South Africa international's exit without making an official appearance for the team.
"We will talk to him and find out how he is feeling, how does he see it. I mean this guy was playing in the Premier League and in Turkey – there must be something there," he continued.
"Let's give it a try, give him a chance to play and let's give a South African player a chance to play. We've got nothing to lose."
With Rantie being a free agent, the Brazilians can complete the signing of the former AFC Bournemouth forward even after the current transfer window closes on Monday night.
"It's always good for us. I have never seen a problem since he has been with us, that is why we are considering him," the former Bafana Bafana coach concluded.
Sundowns have signed Affonso, Seabi and Nyiko Mobbie during the current transfer window.
However, former Free State Stars defender Mobbie has since been loaned out to Stellenbosch FC.

First, automotive paint companies should change their concepts, establish a systematic understanding of the coatings industry, and lay the road for independent innovation. China's coatings industry has been neglecting the coating process in the development process. General coatings research institutes and coatings manufacturers do not pay attention to the practical application of coatings. Its sales and service personnel also lack the relevant expertise in painting. Although some companies have realized that this lack of equipment has also taken corresponding measures, compared with joint ventures or advanced foreign companies, this aspect is still a weak link. Therefore, coatings companies should adhere to the road of coating and painting integration, so that there will be more room for development.
Second, learn from experience and independent innovation. In recent years, China's auto industry and automotive coatings industry have introduced a variety of projects, and world-renowned auto companies and auto paint companies have entered the Chinese market. In the period of lack of funds and lack of technology, the strategy of market-for-technology and capital is correct. Under the background of economic globalization and regional integration, it is difficult to separate the nation from the world. However, if you always rely on the introduction, there is no brand of your own, it is subject to human control. Therefore, Chinese auto coating companies must be good at independent innovation in order to have their own real market.
Third, take the road of internationalization. China's automotive coatings industry should create our independent innovation system to combine our national conditions to play our advantages. We must also integrate some advanced technological achievements at home and abroad to enhance the core competitiveness of China's coatings industry. Therefore, the coatings industry should cooperate and innovate for foreign-funded enterprises. International road.


*We provide trash bags, gloves, sharps containers and some light snacks. People can meet Regina in the Kensington Triangle, pick up trash and earn the trade for the class series.
The class series is a four week series and the trade is four bags for the whole series. No drop-ins please! Must register and sign-up in advance. All classes are progressive so drop-in students typically feel lost.
If someone wants to come to class but cannot come to the block clean up, Regina asks that when they come to the Kensington Triangle to pick up trash on their own. They can provide a picture of the 4 bags of trash or a street name where they picked up the trash, if they do not have the ability to take a picture. No need to bring the trash to class. The most important thing is that the trash is picked up in the Kensington Triangle.
For more information about this event, please click here to check out their Facebook page.


admittedly, i've been too busy to even PLAN anything for that area.
and that was all the inspiration that i needed!
(because in art and design, repetition adds strength).
there are two tarnished silver cups, some galvanized construction tape, spring, and gift tag.
a rusty letter O, a bling-y shower curtain ring, and a champagne cork with cage.
which shows up when they are mounted together on the wreath using more twine.
greys, blacks, charcoals, and varying shades of brown mixed with sparkling glass.
it may not be cold here where i live, but this combination evokes a 'winter-y' mood for me!
continue reading to see where it ended up!
filled with an old yard tool and more wire light cages to tie it all together.
would that look like it was left over from Christmas????
there's a long wood bench on one side, providing a nice spot to accessorize each season.
so i try to make the most of it!
is a nice big white plank fence section tucked behind that bench to lighten the space up!
i'm on it - stay tuned!
Welcome to the partay, my friend! Your junk wreaths are BEAUTIFUL! I just adore your aesthetic so much!
Took your Christmas wreath down, I never put one up. I did a nice floral piece in a metal container on my front door. Fall leaves, grapes, even a great thick tapestry bow and hand painted bright orange dollar store pumpkins with my favorite Sweet Peas Charm paint.
But dang, that sucked the creative juices out of me.
So for Christmas out went the pumpkins and in went fresh cut Christmas tree limbs from LOWE'S when we got our tree. Done & Done. The rest of the front porch got decorated, hubby even bought a tree from the thrift store and put it out. But the front door was sacrificed so other could be decorated!
LOL! hey, there's no shame in doing what a girl needs to do, Miss Barbara! sounds like you came up with solutions that worked perfectly for you at a busy time of year - bravo!

Q: REgEx Matching Leading and Trailing Whitespace I've seen some posts on this but haven't been able to find a solution for my scenario. I've got a form that I am trying to do a check for leading and trailing spaces. The is inside a hook_form_validation_validate for Drupal using Webform Validation's API. I've used a few variations, but these are the two that seem the most logical.
foreach ($items as $key => $val) {
    // @todo: Check for scenarios where $val is an array.
    $valCheckSpace = preg_match('/^\s*/', $val);
    if ($valCheckSpace) {
      $errors[$key] = t('%item cannot have leading or trailing spaces.', array('%item' => $components[$key]['name'], '%num' => $max_length));
    }
  }

  return $errors;
}

and this one:
foreach ($items as $key => $val) {
    // @todo: Check for scenarios where $val is an array.
    $valCheckSpace = preg_match('/^\s*/g', $val);
    if ($valCheckSpace) {
      $errors[$key] = t('%item cannot have leading or trailing spaces.', array('%item' => $components[$key]['name'], '%num' => $max_length));
    }
  }

  return $errors;
}

Here's one more:
foreach ($items as $key => $val) {
    // @todo: Check for scenarios where $val is an array.
    $valCheckSpace = preg_match('/^\s/', $val);
    if ($valCheckSpace) {
      $errors[$key] = t('%item cannot have leading or trailing spaces.', array('%item' => $components[$key]['name'], '%num' => $max_length));
    }
  }

  return $errors;
}

Using VSCode and XDebug, nothing fires at those breakpoints and the entry goes through when it should throw an error.
Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.
Here is an example of the data being inputted into the form field.
Form field image with entries here
The image above shows what's being entered in. There are also trailing spaces after the entries.The expected results are to throw an error to let the user know that leading or trailing spaces are not allowed.

A: (Perl syntax) Find strings with a leading or trailing space:
(^[ ].*)|(.*[ ]$)
Find strings with a leading or trailing whitespace (space or tabs):
(^\W.*)|(.*\W$)

A: As it turns out, Webform was executing a trim prior but the trimmed data wasn't being recognized when compared with what was already in the DB and duplicate entries were going in. The above code is actually correct. Drupal is ripping my head apart. My apologies and thanks to you all.

Q: Method undefined for type SmsReciever - context I am new to Android development. I am developing an app that upon receiving an SMS message with a unique string of text, the GPS is enabled and starts tracking the location of the phone. The issue I'm having is with the getSystemService() method.
I receive the error "The method getSystemService(String) is undefined for the type SmsReceiver", I believe this is because it does not have a context. I have tried to add in a context within my code with 'ctx', and that removes the error but my application crashes every time I run it on my phone. The code for receiving the SMS works fine, and the GPS location tracking code works fine if it's in my main class.

As many of you know, GRAFT and numerous other projects are being regularly attacked using Nicehash (service providing hash power on demand). The attackers' goal is to perform a sustained 51% attack to produce an alternative chain that would include their own double-spending transaction in it, and attempt to withdraw the funds from the exchange before the network adopts a new chain.
These attacks are unpleasant for several reasons: 1) the exchanges have to raise number of confirmations leading to very long withdrawal and deposit times, 2) some legitimate transactions get stuck while being written to the alt-chain, and it takes days until they get reversed.
A common approach is to create a small tweak to the hash algorithm, or use existing tweaks.
The downside of this approach is that it requires coordinated changes to the node, miner software, and pool software. (some of it is going to happen organically since miners are incentivized, but it is far from guarantee as practically no software miners support all the changes listed above).
The best approach to solving this problem at this time is something like ChainLocks, which is using the 2nd layer network to help validate the blockchain. This approach is much more robust and provides a long-term solution to the issue. The "ChainLocks approach" will take some time, however, as it's reduced from conceptual to practical implementation and will rely on having a robust 2nd tier network to execute it, so we're looking at 4-6 months out.
We recognize the need to deal with this issue now, however, and as such have decided to implement our own unique CryptoNight variation (more details will be published soon, after we finish preliminary testing). Rolling out this tweak will not be trivial, however, as again, it will require support from mining software and pool software. We will create a separate testnet for the new PoW algorithm and will rely on the miners community to not only test for robustness and unintended consequences, but also engage with the mining and pool software publishers to incorporate the change.
Keep in mind that any new hash algorithm solutions are temporary and are only effective until Nicehash adds support for it, which is driven by economics of the gains for the Nicehash community.
We've done some polling among the miners as to what mining software they use and how likely they would be to switch mining software if necessary. Here are some results so far, but we welcome you to provide your feedback as well.
Earlier this week we implemented a tweak to CN8 algorithm we dubbed CryptoNight Waltz, which will prevent the attackers from using available Nicehash hashing power.
The main reason we created this testnet is to add the possibility for miner and pool maintainers to add and test support of CryptoNight Waltz. Please help reach out to your favorite mining software maintainer or pool operator to get them to update their software. We will not be able to roll this patch out to the Mainnet before we have that support.
