Right up there with Forsyth Park and River Street, Wormsloe Historic Site is one of Savannah's can't-miss attractions. Even if you never heard of the site, you've likely spotted it in pictures: its star attraction is the mile-long avenue leading to the plantation, which is lined on both sides by towering live oak trees dressed in Spanish moss.
Most travelers venture here for the free photo op alone, but what lies beyond the entryway is also worth your attention. Here you'll find the ruins of Wormsloe, the oldest standing structure in Savannah and the colonial estate of Noble Jones, a carpenter who came to Georgia in 1733 with James Oglethorpe and the first group of settlers from England. Along with the ruins, visitors can tour a small museum featuring artifacts unearthed at Wormsloe and watch a brief film about the site and Georgia's founding. There's also an interpretative nature trail that runs along a marsh on the Skidaway River, as well as costumed interpreters demonstrating the tools and skills of colonial Georgia.
Past visitors gushed about the oak-lined drive and called the view "iconic." If you plan to walk the trails, you'll want to wear comfortable, sturdy shoes and bring water, according to reviewers.
You'll find Wormsloe Historic Site about 10 miles southeast of downtown Savannah. It's only reachable by car (and part of the appeal is being able to drive along the gorgeous entryway), so keep this in mind when deciding whether or not you want to rent a car when in Savannah.
Wormsloe is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission costs $10 for adults, $9 for seniors, $4.50 for kids (ages 6 to 17) and $2 for children younger than 6. Guided tours are available daily at 9:30 a.m., 11 a.m., 1:30 p.m. and 3 p.m. If you don't want to pay for admission, you can get a pretty good view of the picture-perfect driveway without forking over any money, but you won't be able to drive along the avenue (an experience most visitors said is worth paying for). For more information, visit the site's website. Along with a museum and theater, there is also a gift shop and picnic area.

#1 Forsyth Park
Go to this 30-acre park in the heart of Savannah's Historic District to relax after a long day of sightseeing. Keep your camera ready, though, as there is plenty to see here as well. Stroll past the stunning white-stone Forsyth Fountain, memorials dedicated to the Confederacy and the Spanish-American War, the Fragrant Garden for the visually impaired and the 300-year-old Candler Oak tree. From the park, you can see several historic sites within walking distance, including Hodgson Hall (home to the Georgia Historical Society) and the old Poor House and Hospital, which was used to treat wounded soldiers during the Civil War.
Recent visitors noted the park's urban cosmopolitan vibe, with locals and tourists alike picnicking, dog walking and even painting. They also say that street parking nearby the park is free on Sundays.

I dont see ANYTHING wrong with that picture! Is that Tess? She is PRECIOUS!!!
One the bed. Without you?
I'm guessing Tess is ignoring "the rules" again! But I bet that naughty band of gypsies is to blame!
And congrats to your A&M Aggies this weekend with their one point victory over my Cowboys. Sad times for us!

The , also incorrectly known as the , is the main theatre of the city of Bremen in the north of Germany, the main venue of Theater Bremen. Completed in 1913 in the Neoclassical style, it is located in the cultural district to the east of the old town. After reconstruction with major extensions after the Second World War, it was fully modernized in 2004. Since 2005, it has been a listed building.

History
Under the name , the theatre was founded as the second establishment of the private firm Bremer Schaubühne. In so doing, the firm's directors Eduard Ichon and Johannes Wiegand, who in 1910 had opened the , widened competition with the municipal theatre,  (now destroyed). Adapting their prices and presentations to suit all segments of the community, they were particularly successful in attracting audiences in the years following the First World War. The theatre opened in 1913 with a production of Oscar Wilde's  (A Woman of No Importance).

After the municipal theatre had suffered serious war damage, it was decided the  should be rebuilt as a fully-fledged three-genre establishment extending the seating from 804 to 1,111 while significantly altering the facade designed by August Abbehusen and Otto Blendermann in 1913. In keeping with the practices of the 1950s, the architects Werner Commichau and Hans Stormraising raised the height of the colonnade and eliminated the high hipped roof, successfully simplifying the facade and giving it a more austere appearance. The theatre reopened in 1950. In 2004, extensive modernization was carried out by the Hamburg firm of architects, Dinse Feest Zurl Architekten. Care was taken to meet acoustic specifications in work entailing raising the roof, installing new sound and light systems and in cladding the walls with wooden panelling and brass inlays.

Today the theatre presents productions of musicals, opera and drama. In 2007, it received the magazine Opernwelt'''s award Opernhaus des Jahres'' (Opera house of the year).

Celltrion Chairman Seo Jeong-jin lost a case in which he asked the National Tax Service (NTS) to pay back about 13.2 billion won in gift taxes.
The Incheon District Court ruled against Suh in a lawsuit filed in January with the NTS for the return of 13.21 billion won that he paid in 2013 and 2014.
The court ruled that it was justifiable to impose a gift tax, considering that the transfer of wealth was actually made due to excessive concentration of work on a certain company.
The object of the gift tax levied by the NTS was the profits generated by the transaction between the Celltrion and the Celltrion Health Care.
Celltrion produces medicines and hands them over exclusively to Celltrion Healthcare. Celltrion Healthcare is responsible for the distribution and sale of medicines that it received from Celltrion.
According to the ruling, the sales of Celltrion made through Celltrion Healthcare were 94.57 percent in 2012 and 98.65 percent in 2013.
Both companies' controlling shareholders are Chairman Seo. At the time of the imposition of the gift tax, Chairman Suh indirectly held the equity of the Celltrion (20.09 percent) through Celltrion Holdings (96.99 percent) and directly held the equity of the Celltrion Healthcare (50.31 percent).


Pancit canton recipe that helps you make this favourite Filipino dish at home with ingredients that are readily available in your local supermarket.
Whenever people find out I'm from the Philippines, I almost always get asked: do you have a pancit recipe (pronounced pan-sit)? They always walk away disappointed because I'd always say no.
Well not anymore! Now I have a fabulous pancit canton recipe and the best part is, the recipe uses ingredients readily available here while still keeping that traditional pancit canton taste. Win-win!
Filipinos grew up eating pancit but even non-Filipinos love it (they also love lumpia – I'm still working on that lol). But what is it?
You take some noodles, stir-fry it with soy sauce, some vegetables like snow peas and meat like chicken breast. Add some Chinese sausages or Chinese chorizo then serve it as a main or side.
So in a way it's very similar to chow mein. But also very different.
This recipe uses canton which is a type of egg flour noodle. You can find rounded ones like spaghetti or flat ones like fettuccini.
They've been dried and precooked so it doesn't take long to fully cook them. A few quick minutes is all it takes.
What are the different types of pancit?
There are different kinds of noodles you can use for pancit, like pancit bihon, pancit habhab, etc. Each one looks and tastes different though the preparation is for the most part the same.
What is common is that it's a staple in any Filipino gathering because pancit signifies long life. I'm not sure why that is, though it's a common belief among Filipinos that noodles = luck and abundance.
So if not pancit, sweet and salty Filipino spaghetti would most likely be on the menu instead.
but any deep large skillet will do.
Using the same pan (yes, everything happens in 1 pan so less clean-up!) cook your garlic and onions until the onions are soft and translucent. Then add your chicken and cook until lightly browned.
. Watch your meat so they don't get burned. Lower the heat if needed.
(also called dried black wood ear mushrooms) then remove from heat.
Don't be intimidated by the list of ingredients. The key to this pancit canton recipe is mis en place. Once you have everything ready, cooking is a breeze.
Speaking of ingredients, we buy all these in our local supermarket. Just look in the Asian or International aisle for things like flour stick noodles (apparently that's what canton noodle is in English, who knew?), Chinese sausage or chorizo and soy sauce. The rest are easy.
If your local store doesn't carry some of these items, you are certainly going to find them in an Asian supermarket. Or there's always amazon!
The tools you need to cook pancit are pretty basic too.
So go ahead, take the plunge and make pancit today. It's easier than you think. Plus, it's delicious and remember, it brings good luck!
For other Filipino recipes, you might try filipino turon for a snack. Top it with vanilla ice cream, drizzle it with salted caramel sauce and you're golden.
If you're in a baking mood, why not try this easy, traditional pandesal recipe? It will not only make your kitchen smell wonderful, it would also give you a batch of the softest, fluffiest bread rolls ever.
Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil to a wok or a deep, large skillet on med/high heat. Add 3/4 cup red bell pepper, 3/4 cup carrots and 1 cup snap peas. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
Add another tbsp of oil to the pan and sauté 2 tbsp garlic with 1/2 cup onions until the onions are soft and translucent. Stir in 1/2 cup chicken and cook until lightly browned.
Add 1 cup fish balls and cook for 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup Chinese sausage and cook for a minute more. Be careful not to overcook or burn the meats. Lower your heat if necessary.
Pour 3 cups chicken broth. Season with 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, salt and pepper to taste. Stir then allow the mixture to boil.
Carefully add the canton noodles and stir until it absorbs all the liquid. Add chopped black fungus then remove from heat.
Add back your cooked vegetables, half of your chopped green onions and 1 tsp of sesame oil. Stir until combined.
Sprinkle the rest of your green onions before serving. Best served warm.
To prep dried black fungus, follow package instructions. What you essentially need to do is soak it in water and wait for it to bloom to about 3x its size (about 5 minutes). Once it does, remove from the water, pat dry and chop.
Did you make this pancit canton recipe? I'd love to hear from you in the comments section below.
This looks so yum! I love it when I can put so much veggies in this noodles, a way to make the kid eat more vegetables. Can't wait to try this recipe. Thank you for sharing!
Yummmmm! I LOVE Pancit. I have Filipino family members and whenever there's a big gathering it's on the menu along with lechon! Your recipe looks delicious so I'll definitely give it a try!
Mmmm now I want lechon lol!
I have heard of Pancit before, but I have never tried it out. But now that I see it I am going to have to try it out in the near future, whether it means I make it or find someone who serves it. It looks awesome.
My mouth is watering looking at this noodle recipe. I am definitely going to make this at home!
Wow this recipe looks so colorful and delicious…I need to try this out.
Asian style noodles are always the best! I love the play of flavors and textures in this dish. I can't believe it is so easy to make too. I will add this to our menu plan for next week.
As a Vietnamese boy, this would satisfy me so well. I am starving by looking at the pictures!
I have never heard of this but it sounds delicious! Definitely something I would try!
I could eat a noodle dish every night of the week and never get tired of it. They're so yummy and versatile.
Guess what we're having for dinner this week!?! I do not every serve filipino food, so this will be a treat for the family.
Yay for pancit! My MIL loves pancit. Every time we go to different restaurants, an order of pancit is a must.
Yay for pancit 🙂 Even though we cook it at home, we almost always order it when we're at a Filipino restaurant too lol!
It's always fun creating your own dishes isn't it! Love that you got outside your comfort zone and now have a signature dish to represent your heritage!
That's amazing you managed to do it and it looks amazing and colorful which is pretty amazing. I love kind of food like this.
This sounds and looks so yummy, I'd love to try it! My boyfriend has made similar dishes for us before so I'm going to ask him to try this recipe next time!
Stir fries are my weeknight staple. They are easy to make and come together with most anything you have in your fridge and freezer.
Oh I had not heard of this but it sounds incredible. I love stir fry!
This looks so tasty! I've never made a Filipino dish before– I may need to start with this one! So good.
I agree! This is a really delicious dish to start exploring Filipino cuisine. Hope you like it!
My father in law makes some great pancit too! This recipe is one we need to try also. Looks great!
I never heard of pancit but it looks delicious! I love all kinds of noodles and would really like to try these!
I've never heard of Pancit. It looks delicious and healthy too. I'm going to print this recipe out and save for later.
I always buy pancit in that Filippino store by me. Now, thanks to you, I will be able to make my own.
I've had this before but never knew how to make it. It was so good that I want to make it right now haha. I didn't know that it was believed to bring good luck either, so interesting.

POSTnote
Our flagship report, the POSTnote, is a four-page briefing reviewing emerging areas of research.
Large-scale woodland creation is being promoted internationally to mitigate climate change. It can also supply other benefits, such as improving biodiversity, air and water quality. This POSTnote summarises key factors influencing how much carbon is taken up by woodland, the different objectives of woodland creation, constraints to increasing UK tree cover and different finance options.
Screen use and health in young people
Devices with screens include game consoles, laptops and televisions. Screen use refers to activities undertaken on such devices and the time spent on them. Children's screen use has increased over the past decade. Policy-makers and parents have expressed concerns about possible effects of screen use on children/young people's development and health. This POSTnote provides an overview of how children/young people use screens, the opportunities and risks of this use, evidence on the possible effects on health and development, and evidence on ways to support healthy screen use.
Mental health impacts of COVID-19 on NHS staff
Media headlines have predicted an increase in mental ill health among NHS staff during the COVID-19 pandemic. This POSTnote gives an overview of the scale and quality of current evidence on the mental health and well-being of NHS staff before and during the pandemic. It also discusses how staff are supported and the options for introducing other effective interventions as the pandemic continues.
Interpretable machine learning
Machine learning (ML, a type of artificial intelligence) is increasingly being used to support decision making in a variety of applications including recruitment and clinical diagnoses. While ML has many advantages, there are concerns that in some cases it may not be possible to explain completely how its outputs have been produced. This POSTnote gives an overview of ML and its role in decision-making. It examines the challenges of understanding how a complex ML system has reached its output, and some of the technical approaches to making ML easier to interpret. It also gives a brief overview of some of the proposed tools for making ML systems more accountable.
Heat networks
A heat network provides heating and hot water to an apartment, commercial site or series of buildings close together. It can also provide cooling. There is interest in using them to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions from UK buildings. This POSTnote looks at the technology of heat networks and their sources of heat. It looks at considerations when building new networks. It also outlines a potential future market framework.
Friday, 18 September, 2020
This POSTnote describes edge computing, the use of computing resources in close proximity to the place where data are processed within a network, and some of the opportunities and challenges associated with its use. It supplements POSTnote 629.
Digital Sequence Information
Evolving life sciences and agricultural research approaches may have a decreasing need to access physical resources in future, such as plant seeds or viral material. Information and genetic data may be all that is required for commercial exploitation of biological resources. This POSTnote summarises the challenge this creates for international discussions on the governance of genetic resources and the possible options for addressing these.
Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services on-demand over the internet. This POSTnote describes the different types of cloud computing before outlining issues relating to security, regulation, energy use and barriers to the adoption of this technology.
Remote sensing and machine learning
Friday, 19 June, 2020
There is increasing interest in using machine learning to automatically analyse remote sensing data and increase our understanding of complex environmental systems. While there are benefits from this approach, there are also some barriers to its use. This POSTnote examines the value of these approaches, and the technical and ethical challenges for wider implementation.
Managing land uses for environmental benefits
Understanding the combined impacts of land use on environmental benefits could better inform decision-making and land management frameworks. This POSTnote summarises the challenges of managing landscapes on a large scale to deliver multiple environmental benefits, the evidence needed, and the policy approaches that could be used to achieve this.
A resilient UK food system
Thursday, 11 June, 2020
The food system underpins many aspects of our society. It feeds us and shapes the economic, social and natural environments that we live in. The COVID-19 pandemic has further highlighted the importance of resilience in the food system. This POSTnote defines resilience and why it is needed, describes what a more resilient UK food system would look like and explores possible ways of achieving this.
Marine renewables are technologies that generate electricity from tide and wave motion. They produce electricity without greenhouse gases, and could provide economic benefits for the UK. However, the technologies have been slow to develop, despite previous projections of growth. This POSTnote examines the causes of this delay and how the sector might develop.
Evidence suggests that food fraud continues to be an issue in the global food supply chain. This POSTnote provides an overview of food fraud, including its drivers and impacts. It discusses methods for food authenticity testing, broader strategies to prevent food fraud and impacts of EU exit.
Natural mitigation of flood risk
The UK's flood risk from rivers, surface water and ground-water is projected to increase with climate change. Natural flood management (NFM) can be described as using the natural features of the land to store and slow down the flow of water. NFM is being piloted across the UK and its expansion is an objective of the Government's 25 Year Environment Plan. This POSTnote examines the evidence for the effectiveness of NFM at reducing flood risk, and successful governance approaches to implementing NFM measures.
Online extremism
Extremism is possible in any ideology, including (but not limited to) politics and religion. Extremism can affect mental well-being, amplify hostility and threaten democratic debate. The global reach of the internet poses social and technological challenges for safeguarding citizens from extremism online. When the Commission for Countering Extremism surveyed over 2500 members of the public in 2019, 56% agreed that a lot more should be done to counter extremism online. This POSTnote outlines how the online environment can be used for extremist purposes, how exposure to online extremism can influence people and potential strategies to counter extremist content online.

Deep in the Author: Amy O'kruk. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Deep sea mining is a mineral retrieval process that takes place on the ocean floor. Ocean mining sites are usually around large areas of polymetallic nodules or active and extinct hydrothermal vents at 1, to 3, metres (4, to 12, ft) below the ocean's surface.
Deep-sea minerals such as polymetallic nodule, hydrothermal sulphides, and ferro-manganese crusts have for long attracted attention as an alternative source of metals to terrestrial deposits.The international forum for deep sea mining professionals.
As the international deep sea mining community move ever closer to mining the deep-ocean floor, industry stakeholders from developing island nations and ocean regulators, to commercial deep sea miners and subsea technology companies come together annually to meet at the world's premier Deep Sea Mining Summit.Of the several oceanic basins in the world, only four are viable for commercial deep-sea mining.
These basins are the Clarion-Clipperton Zone in the Equatorial North Pacific, the Peru Basin in the Southeast Pacific Ocean, the Penrhyn Basin to the east of Australia in the central South Pacific Ocean, and the Indian Ocean Nodule Field within the.

How Do You Solve for the Customer in the Cyber Security Equation?
by David Shrier
author_David Shrier
Why should retailers and brands be focused on cyber security? What are the impacts to consumers? How does this impact marketing strategy?
The digitisation of the retail industry has transformed consumer experience, business models and supply chains in terms of both sophistication and complexity. According to the UK Office for National Statistics, April 2020 recorded the highest level of retail online sales at 30% of total retail sales, a drastic increase largely accelerated by Covid-19 panic buying. As a percentage of all retail sales, online sales in January and February 2020 were 20% and 18.9% respectively, a meaningful increase compared to 2.8% in November 2006 when the records began.
As consumers become more comfortable shopping online, their cyber footprint grows, and so does the amount of data they generate about their behaviours. Equipped with more data, retailers have the opportunity to understand their consumers better hence gaining a competitive advantage that leads to more tailored and refined products. Rising levels of consumer data also leads to greater risks. This stimulates a need for heightened security and regulatory scrutiny, as cyber criminals mastermind attacks that could cripple retailers through financial loss, reputational damage and regulatory fines up to €20 million (GDPR) per consumer, per incident.
Cyber security breaches leave consumers vulnerable as their credit card details, email and home addresses, date of birth and other critical data fall in the hands of criminals. Retailers, on the other hand, seem to sacrifice robust security measures that can lead to a more time-consuming purchase in favour of a seamless and more enhanced shopping experience, thus making for a more attractive cyberattack target. The challenge intensifies as advancements in IoT, AI and robotics continue to unlock greater consumer convenience by adding levels of complexity to business models and their supply chains, compelling retailers to constantly adapt. The success or failure of this evolution is heavily reliant on the weakest link, often their cyber security systems and practices.
A white paper released by Axis Communications shows that retailers are presented with boundless opportunities owing to the growth of IoT devices and cloud technologies, however they must fully understand the risks of unsecure systems to their business as well as the implications of failing to secure the customer data and repercusions of non-compliance with GDPR.
In an industry where brand reputation and loyalty are vital to success, the impact of cyber breaches can be significant in the longer run. According to the 2018 Cost of a Data Breach study conducted by Ponemon Institute for IBM, the estimated average cost of a data breach globally is a staggering $3.86 million per incident, an increase of 6.4% compared to 2017. The report also analysed the loss of customers as a result of a data breach and reported that losses of less than 1% of customers resulted in an average total cos of $2.8 million, increasing to an average total cost of $6 million if 4% of customers are lost.
Looking at the US alone, the Deloitte 2019 US Consumer Privacy in Retail shows that an alarming one third of Americans have been exposed to data compromise with the volume of breached records from 2016 to 2018 growing twelve-fold.In addition, the FIS US Consumer Report 2020 found that 63% of US consumers are either extremely or very concerned about their private/ personal data being compromised while over one third think that it is very likely that their data will be stolen by a hacker in the near future. For retailers that had suffered a data breach, 28% of customers were unlikely or very unlikely to revisit.
As cyberattacks continue to escalate, consumers are increasingly conscious of their privacy. The correlation between privacy and trust has been put to the test and it is clear that consumers will place their trust in retailers where they feel more secure. Building customer trust through robust cyber security must therefore be a key agenda item in executive meetings. Trust and privacy have become very powerful tools for client retention and lead generation strategies; therefore, marketing efforts should be oriented towards leveraging the strength of the retailers' cyber security systems in order to increase brand loyalty and gain competitive advantage in a crowded marketplace. A concerted effort to invest in cyber security and comprehensive data breach prevention planning is critical, just as critical as reassuring the consumer of the robustness of your security systems.
Cyber security is an issue for all industries and one that all senior executives should be prepared for. The Oxford Cyber Security for Business Leaders Programme will breakdown topics, normally left to information technology specialists, so that business executives leave feeling confident they can apply these learnings within their current and future roles. These topic areas can sometimes appear mystifying to a busy corporate executive, but have profound implications in terms of both risk and opportunity. Register today - course begins 14 October.

What's up for May 2013?
Spot popular astronomical sights this month including nebulae, a galaxy trio and the site of a recent planetary discovery.
Jane Houston Jones: What's Up for May.
Spring constellations yield science targets you can see.
Hello and welcome. I'm Jane Houston Jones at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.
May is a great month to see a lovely collection of constellations with your own eyes and view objects studied by NASA spacecraft and telescopes.
Use the moon to help locate the constellations this month.
On May 13 the crescent moon is between the 'feet' of the Gemini twins.
The stars Pollux and Castor mark the heads of the twins.
The Eskimo Nebula, studied by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, is a fine object to view through small telescopes.
From the 14th through the 17th the moon passes the pretty Beehive Cluster located in the Y-shaped constellation Cancer.
The first planets to be found orbiting sun-like stars in a star cluster were found in the Beehive by NASA-funded astronomers using the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Arizona.
On the 18th and 19th you'll find the moon near the paws of Leo the Lion.
A trio of Leo galaxies have been extensively studied by many telescopes, including the European Southern Observatory's Visual Survey Telescope.
This trio -- M-65, M-66 and NGC-3628 -- is a popular target for amateur astrophotographers, too.
On the 22nd you'll find the moon near the V-shaped constellation Virgo -- and Saturn.
The Palomar telescope observed a chain of galaxies in the heart of the Virgo Cluster, another popular, but challenging, amateur astronomer target called Markarian's Chain.
Nearby are the constellations Cygnus and Lyra, home to the Kepler Habitable Planet Search Grid, where the smallest Habitable Zone planets were just discovered in April.

St. Marcellin is a small, round cheese produced in the South-Eastern French region of Dauphine. It has a nutty flavor and creamy texture, that pairs perfectly with any Rhone red wine. Originally this cheese was made using goat's milk, although now almost all is made (as is ours) using cow's milk. The rustic nature of St. Marcellin is echoed in the fact that it most often found wrapped in chestnut or grape leaves, which turn from fresh green to a dark brown as the cheese ripens. It's wonderful served as an appetizer or snack with olives and a good, coarse salami.

This ancient house of worship was from the beginning a cemetery basilica, that is to say a shrine with an essentially commemorative function. When the palatium episcopatus (bishop's palace) was transferred to the immediate vicinity between the ninth and tenth centuries, this building assumed the function of cathedral church.
Excavations carried out from 1964 to 1977 have brought to light the remains of the Early Christian basilica of Saint Vigilius, built outside the city walls presumably around the end of the fourth century using sections of walls of earlier secular buildings. The structure's original purpose was as a burial place for the missionaries in Anaunia Sisinius, Martyrius, and Alexander, murdered in the Val di Non by pagans on 29 May 397. Alongside the martyrs Vigilius, the third bishop and the patron saint of Trent was also buried. This ancient house of worship was from the beginning a cemetery basilica, that is to say a shrine with an essentially commemorative function. When the palatium episcopatus (bishop's palace) was transferred to the immediate vicinity between the ninth and tenth centuries, this building assumed the function of cathedral church. True to the classic shape of Early Christian basilicas, it had an atrium, or perhaps a four-sided porch attached to the front wall, which was pierced by three doors, the central one of which is still functioning. The ancient basilica was about 43 meters long and 14 meters wide, a fairly large size for a hall church. It probably had a trussed roof. The floor was completely taken up by tombs set into the ground, all converging towards that of the patron saint. Fragments have been found of a mosaic floor decoration near the chancel, marked off by a step made of red stone still showing the square cavities into which were set the little pillars supporting the pluteus. In the ninth century two side chapels with apses were added. In the eleventh century the single large space was divided into a nave and two side aisles and a crypt was dug out underneath, causing the chancel area to be raised. The final work on the building was concluded by Bishop Alemanno, who on 18 November 1145 reconsecrated the church in the presence of the Patriarch of Aquileia.
The Early Christian Basilica is in the underground of St. Vigilius' cathedral. The archaeological site is accessible at the end of the left aisle, but not for disabled people.
Admission to the basilica may be subject to change according to the church services.

Andromeda is a young adult novel brimming with pace, tension and drama. It tells a story of young people who all, in some way, feel sidelined and othered. They are confused outcasts in the world, putting on masks and trying to present different, tougher versions of who they truly are. It is a tale of loyalty and betrayal, pecking orders and mind-games, of finding small things inside the big and big things inside the small – a tale of butterflies and the universe.

Roofer settles OSHA suit over retaliation claim
Gloria Gonzalez
Construction Regulation Workplace Safety More + Less -
The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration and a Georgia roofing contractor have settled a lawsuit over the company's alleged violation of the anti-retaliation provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act.
In the settlement, Kennesaw, Georgia-based Jasper Contractors Inc., which was performing roofing work in Florida, agreed to pay an employee $48,000 in back wages and compensatory damages, according to a statement issued by the agency on Thursday.
A former safety director alleged that the roofing company fired him after he cooperated with an OSHA investigation by providing a statement and safety documentation. Terminating an employee for cooperating with an OSHA investigation violates Section 11(c) of the OSH Act, according to the agency.
The company and its owner, Brian Wedding, are forbidden from violating provisions of Section 11(c), and will expunge the disciplinary actions from the employee's personnel file. OSHA will provide training to this company's employees covering their rights under Section 11(c).
"It is against the law for an employer to retaliate against an employee cooperating with an OSHA inspector," said Kurt Petermeyer, OSHA Atlanta Regional Administrator, said in a statement. "The OSH Act protects employees who exercise their right to report safety concerns and OSHA enforces those legal provisions."
A company spokesperson could not be immediately reached for comment.

Hi Garrett. What's the show about?
Well it started as a very different beast this time last year. But essentially, whilst I was writing the show, my family was struck with a bit of tragedy. I had two thirds of a show and a few weeks to finish and deliver something. It ended up being quite a cathartic process and became a show about comedy and its ability to pull you through dark times.
There is a great routine about Chesney Hawkes too.
It went rather well. Do you have a favourite performance so far?
The night [my wife] Sarah came to see Sunflower in Edinburgh was pretty great. She'd lived it and helped me put the show together, she'd heard about it and read reviews and stuff but couldn't actually see it till midway through the festival. That was one to remember - I dragged her onstage to take a bow at the end.
Any odd reactions to it?
Somebody asked me if I'd made the story up to have a satisfying Edinburgh narrative. I couldn't work out who that reflected poorly on me, her, or the state of the Edinburgh Festival.
Van Gogh created his famous painting Sunflowers during a rare period of excited optimism. Should all comedians embrace sunflowers?
It was just a throw away naming it that. It's the title of my favourite Beach Boys album so I thought I'd call it that and see what happened. It worked out rather well. And the colour scheme that's naturally dictated by having a show called that is nice.
I've come to embrace sunflowers to an extent I didn't expect. And I hope I've helped to introduce some people to the underrated gem of an album, Sunflower.
You originally wanted a show free from a theme and any lectures and politics; why was that?
Just the challenge of it. I like theme shows and story shows, I've done a couple. It's not particularly fashionable to do it anymore, especially at Edinburgh, but an hour of pure stand-up comedy is a very difficult thing to pull off. I fancied having a bash at it.
Can you remember back to your first gig?
I was in a rubbish sketch troupe for a bit in 2009. Our first gig was at a mixed bill night at The Hen and Chickens in London. It was utterly abysmal. We had written a ten minute sketch about Andrew Ridgley being a music teacher at a school. The only joke in the sketch was Andrew Ridgley being a bit bitter about George Michael being a pop star. It was an object lesson in flogging a dead horse. We followed it up with a sketch about a farmer which involved me learning and listing every seaside town in the UK. I forget why. Utterly abysmal. We should have stopped performing sketch comedy that very evening, but we didn't.
What about your worst gig?
I did a gig once to UN peace keeping troops. They were watching a football game and their commanding officer turned it off and ordered them to watch comedy. They were also drinking at a free bar having been barred from drinking for a few months. I thought that was about as bad as a gig could get... But you've caught me at just the right time, that gig was knocked off the top spot this weekend by a horrendous nightmare of a gig in Plymouth.
About four hundred people in a marquee round the back of a football club. The vast majority of people who were there were not there to see comedy. They were there to drink like it was the end of the world. If you imagine what the wedding reception of the two worst people in the world might look like, you're half way there. The promoter was wasted and talking at the top of his voice to his friends at the bar. Scores of people drinking tequila shots, doing drugs, and threatening to kick off if they were politely asked to be quiet. A dark threat of violence hung in the air throughout the night and the event organisers neglected to hire any security. I'm amazed we got out of there alive.
I used to run a little night in Kings Cross called The Schadenfreude Cabaret. We did a one year anniversary show in 2012 with a bunch of people who had played the night over the year. The line up was me, Thom Tuck, Ed Eales White, Ford & Akram, John Kearns and Aisling Bea. Which, as line ups go, is pretty decent. It was just really good fun, everyone was on top form, the place was rammed and we had a big party afterwards.
Your career, a year ago, in ten words? And your career now?
"I wonder if I can raise a family doing this?"
"Well that really was quite an unexpected series of events."

LAOIS SFC PREVIEW - Arles-Killeen to bounce back against Mountmellick Gaels
Donie Kingston in action for Arles-Killeen.
After their surprise loss to Portarlington, after a replay, in the opening round of the SFC last week, Arles-Killeen will try to get back to top form on Sunday afternoon.
Having been heavy favourites for that Round 1 game, it was a double surprise for football observers in the county to first see them draw with Port, and then to lose the replay, after extra time.
The long-term prognosis for the club, as things stand, doesn't look overly promising, but they have a strong enough team to get back on the road to the knockout stages in this one.
We had hoped for more from Mountmellick Gaels in their game against Ballylinan, but they were very much second best, and they are meeting a strong side here. Donie Kingston was superb at times in both games against Port for Arles-Killeen, and if Killeen can keep him in possession of the ball as often as possible, then he'll either create or score enough to win them most games.
Mountmellick Gaels have potential, but it's hard to see them keeping tabs on the Kingston brothers and Jason Enright, so Arles-Killeen should win this one.
Verdict: Arles-Killeen
Venue: O'Moore Park
Throw In: 1.30pm
Referee: Clifford Ward (Portarlington)
Odds: Arles-Killeen 1/6, Draw 14/1, Mountmellick Gaels 4/1 (Paddy Power)
Weather: 13 degrees, Rain 60%, Wind 13km/h

Illawarra is a region in the Australian state of New South Wales. It is a coastal region situated immediately south of Sydney and north of the Shoalhaven or South Coast region. It encompasses the cities of Wollongong, Shellharbour and the town of Kiama.
The Illawarra region is characterised by three distinct districts: the north-central district, which is a contiguous urban sprawl centred on Lake Illawarra; the western district defined by the Illawarra escarpment, which leads up to the south-west fringe of Greater Metropolitan Sydney including the Macarthur and Southern Highlands regions; and the southern district, which is historically semi-rural (area undefined), yet now defined by increasing urbanisation.
The word "illawarra" is derived from the Aboriginal Tharawal word "allowrie," also sometimes spelled as "elouera" or "eloura." According to A. W. Reed, the word is variously translated as "pleasant place near the sea" or "high place near the sea."[1][2] The prefix of "illa" is also known to mean "white clay;" with the suffix "warra," sometimes spelled as "wurra," meaning "mountain" in the local indigenous language.[2]George Bass and Matthew Flinders were the first Europeans to visit the area, with Flinders recording that it 'was called "Allowrie" by the natives'.[1]
For the period around 1806, the region was called "Five Islands"; referring to the group of five islands off Red Point.[1][3][failed verification] In 1817 Governor Macquarie, referring to region, wrote: 'part of the coast known generally by the name of the Five Islands, but called by the natives "Illawarra".[1]

The region consists of a grassy coastal plain, narrow in the north and wider in the south, bounded by the Tasman Sea on the east and the mountainous, almost impassable Illawarra escarpment (forming the eastern edge of the Southern Highlands plateau) to the west. In the middle of the region is Lake Illawarra, a shallow lake formed when sediment built up at the entrance to a bay. The district extends from the southern hills of the Royal National Park in the north to the Shoalhaven River in the south, and contains the city of Wollongong, the fourth largest urban area in New South Wales.
North of Wollongong the plain narrows to a small strip of land between the coast and the escarpment. At Coalcliff and Stanwell Park small valleys are formed allowing further settlement. To the south it widens, and becomes increasingly hillier before reaching Stockyard Mountain, a long divide between the main plain and the Jamberoo Valley, which stretches until it reaches Kiama. South of Kiama is Saddleback Mountain and south of that the Shoalhaven plains and the outcrop of Coolangatta Mountain.
Ecologically, the coastal grassy region of the Illawarra is within the Illawarra Lowlands Grassy Woodland biome. Characteristic tree species in the region include Eucalyptus tereticornis, Eucalyptus eugenioides, Eucalyptus longifolia, Eucalyptus bosistoana and Melaleuca decora. Shrub species include Acacia mearnsii, Dodonaea viscosa and as well as the endangered orchard Pterostylis gibbosa.[4]
The wet elevated areas of the Illawarra, where rainfall exceeds 1300mm, are within the Southern Lowland Wet Sclerophyll Forests and Southern Escarpment Wet Sclerophyll Forests biomes which generally feature tall, compact eucalyptus forests 30m-60m tall and understorey that include moist shrubs, tree ferns, a few vines and a uninterrupted herbaceous groundcover.[5][6]
For the purposes of Australian federal elections for the House of Representatives, the Illawarra region is contained within the electoral Divisions of Cunningham, Whitlam and the northern tip of Gilmore.[7][8][9]
For the purposes of New South Wales elections for the NSW Legislative Assembly, the Illawarra region is contained within the electoral districts of Wollongong, Kiera, Shellharbour, Heathcote, and Kiama.
For the purposes of local government administration, the Illawarra region is contained within the cities of Wollongong, Shellharbour and the Municipality of Kiama.
The City of Wollongong forms the northernmost boundary, ranging from Helensburgh to Lake Illawarra, with northernmost coastal suburb Helensburgh and southernmost suburbs including Windang, Yallah and Haywards Bay.
The City of Shellharbour is south of Wollongong City, and ranges from Albion Park Rail in the north, west to Macquarie Pass near the escarpment, south to Dunmore near the Minnamurra River, and bordered on the east by ocean stretching from Lake Illawarra, Warilla, Barrack Point and Shellharbour.
The Municipality of Kiama is south of Shellharbour City, and ranges from the Minnamurra River, west to Bald Hill, and south to about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) south of Gerroa.
The main industries in the area have traditionally been farming, coal mining and steel making. Australia's largest steel-works, BlueScope, operates at Port Kembla. The area, especially around Port Kembla and Wollongong, was once known for its mainly industrial jobs, but since the 1990s commerce has played an increasing role in the city, overtaking industry in many areas.
Illawarra cattle were originally bred in Illawarra and are now Australia's 3rd largest breed in population. They are large dark red cows sometimes with white patches. They produce large amounts of high butter fat and high protein milk and are suited to the Australian climate.[10]
Coal mining has been a key part to the Illawarra's economy for over 200 years.[11]
The Illawarra region is linked to Sydney by several passes and a motorway (Southern Freeway) and electric railway (see Illawarra railway line); to the west by the Illawarra Highway and Picton Road; and to the south by the Princes Highway. At Albion Park Rail the Illawarra Regional Airport serves the region.
Rugby League Football
The Illawarra Steelers Rugby league Football Club played in the NSWRL rugby league competition, then the NRL, from 1982 to 1998, and currently forms one half of the St George Illawarra Dragons joint venture, who play four of their twelve home games at WIN Stadium in Wollongong. The Illawarra Steelers still field teams in the lower rugby league divisions.
Many famous footballers, such as Bob Fulton, Graeme Langlands, Mick Cronin, Rod Wishart, Paul McGregor, Craig Fitzgibbon, Luke Bailey, Steve Roach, Garry Jack, Warren Ryan, and the Stewart brothers Brett and Glenn, have come from the Illawarra region.
The Hawks have represented the region (previously known as the Illawarra Hawks and the Wollongong Hawks) since the foundation year of the NBL, 1979. They won the NBL championship in 2001 defeating the Townsville Crocs 2-1 in the best of 3 finals. They also finished as runners-up in 2005 and 2010 seasons. The team caught global attention when American teen sensation LaMelo Ball announced on ESPN's show The Jump that he will be joining the Hawks through the NBL's Next Star program. In April 2020, LaMelo Ball and his business manager, Jermaine Jackson announced they had bought the Hawks.[12]
The Wollongong Wolves participated in the now defunct NSL, winning back to back premierships in 2000 and 2001. The Wolves were not selected for the NSL's replacement, the A-League, and instead chose to compete in the New South Wales Premier League under the name Wollongong FC. The Wolves organisation collapsed in 2008, and was taken over by Wollongong Community Football Club. The Wolves have continued to play in the New South Wales Premier League.
The Illawarriors are a Rugby Union club that have contested the Shute Shield since 2007.
Cricket has also been played in the Illawarra for at least one hundred and fifty years with the Keira Cricket Club being founded in 1862.
