It's been ages since I have made spiralized 'noodles' and I recently I had a total craving for them, so I decided to pair them with Dee's delicious Thai Pots.
Using a spiralizer or julienne peeler, turn the courgettes into 'noodles' and set aside.
Reheat the Thai Veg Pots according to instructions.
While the Pots are heating up, place a wok or frying pan over a high heat, add a little oil and add some of the 'noodles' and cook until light brown and set aside. Do this in batches until all the 'noodles' are cooked.
Use the same wok add a little oil and stir fry the veggies until light brown. Season with some salt and pepper.
A few weeks ago you might remember I showed you how to make Sauerkraut and over the next few weeks and months I want to show you the best ways to use it. These lush American style 'hot dogs' are perfect for a weekend treat and even nicer topped with the Sauerkraut.
Cook the sausages according to instructions, I like to cook them with a little oil and a pinch of salt in the frying pan.
Toast the buns and place the sausages inside, top off with some of the homemade Sauerkraut and some ketchup and yellow mustard.
Quick, easy and delicious, these are ideal for a weekend treat and the best part is there is hardly any cleaning up afterwards!
I was brought back to my childhood recently, when I bought a pack of potato waffles! The smell and the crispiness was such a reminder of happy days eating the waffles with lashings of ketchup! It inspired me to get together a snazzy vegan fry. Enjoy, Eoin!
Get started on the tofu scramble.
Place all the scramble ingredients in a blender and blend into a paste. Heat in a pan and cook until it's browned and resembles scrambled egg.
Next, brush a little oil on the sausages (see pack instructions) and tomatoes and grill on a medium heat.
Heat some oil in a pan and brown your mushrooms on both sides. Add in the garlic and vegan butter and cook fora further 1-2 minutes and season with a little salt.
Heat up the beans and toast or grill the potato waffles.
When everything is ready assemble, serve and enjoy with a glass of your favourite juice or smoothie!

What does Thanksgiving Day celebrate?
Thanksgiving was originally a holiday to give thanks to God for the harvest. Today it is an opportunity to give thanks for all the good things God has given us. It is also a day to celebrate family.
In the United States Thanksgiving is observed on the fourth Thursday in November. In Canada it occurs on the second Monday of October.
The day is widely celebrated throughout the United States and Canada.
The day is a national federal holiday in the United States. Most people have the day off as well as the Friday following, making a long weekend for travel and holiday.
The way most people celebrate this day is by getting together with family and having a large meal. Many people travel all over the country for large family gatherings on this day.
Many cities have large parades on Thanksgiving Day. Perhaps the largest and most famous parade is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City. It is widely televised and has been running since 1924. Other cities with big parades on this day include Detroit, Philadelphia, and Chicago.
Another popular way to spend the day is watching NFL football. There are generally a number of football games on even though it is Thursday. The Detroit Lions are a traditional team that plays a game nearly every Thanksgiving.
The traditional food for the Thanksgiving meal includes a turkey, cranberry sauce, potatoes, sweet potato casserole, stuffing, vegetables, and pumpkin pie.
The tradition of Thanksgiving started with the Pilgrims who settled at Plymouth, Massachusetts. They first held a celebration of their harvest in 1621. The feast was organized by Governor William Bradford who also invited the local Wampanoag Indians to join in the meal. The first time they called the feast "Thanksgiving" was in 1623, after rain had ended a long drought.
The first national Thanksgiving Day was proclaimed by President George Washington in 1789. However, it did not become a regular holiday in the United States until 1863 when Abraham Lincoln declared that the last Thursday in November should be celebrated as Thanksgiving. Since then it has been celebrated every year in the United States. The day was made an official federal holiday and moved to the fourth Thursday of November in 1941 by President Franklin Roosevelt.
Each year a live turkey is presented to the President of the United States who then "pardons" the turkey and it gets to live out its life on a farm.
Around 46 million turkeys were eaten in the US on Thanksgiving in 2010. That's around one fifth of all the turkeys eaten for the entire year.
Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be the national bird instead of the bald eagle.
Around 88 percent of Americans eat turkey on Thanksgiving.
The Pilgrims sailed to America from Great Britain on a ship called the Mayflower.
The day after Thanksgiving is called Black Friday. It is the biggest shopping day of the year.

Women Experiencing Homelessness
Lotus House Program Design
Causes of and Solutions for Homelessness
The Farm at Lotus Village
In our Youth Program, unaccompanied and parenting youth and their children find sanctuary, support, education, tools and resources to blossom into who they are meant to be.
Understanding the Needs of Youth Experiencing Homelessness
Imagine you are 17 or 18 years old and alone, homeless, desperate to finish high school, with no family support and nowhere to turn. Our homeless high school youth know all too well. Nearly all of the unaccompanied, homeless youth at Lotus House have survived severe trauma in their short lives, including abuse, neglect and untimely loss of parents and caretakers, among others. And yet, with the holistic support system of Lotus House and education as their lifelines, they are still full of youthful hopes and dreams of a better future, college, the service or employment and a career.
We know from experience that unaccompanied, homeless female youth, like their older counterparts, struggle to survive by being invisible, making their numbers difficult to count. It is estimated that between 1 and 1.6 million youth in this nation experience homelessness each year, and every night, thousands of youth across the country go to bed without the safety and stability of a home or family. Most high school age youth are referred to Lotus House via the public school system, though some arrive through County homeless outreach teams.
Two of the primary causes of youth homelessness are family breakdown, including being locked/kicked out, abused, and neglected/abandoned; and "systems failure" through which those aging out of foster care, for example, lack critical support and become homeless. Most homeless youth have experienced trauma, both before and during homelessness, including child physical and sexual abuse and neglect, removal from home by child protective services, and harassment or violence due to homelessness, sexual orientation and/or gender identity, among others. Many are fleeing abusive environments.
Homeless youth are particularly vulnerable and face tragic consequences if they do not receive the services and interventions they need. They are at a higher risk for further physical and sexual assault or abuse, physical illness including HIV/AIDS, anxiety disorders, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, drug abuse, suicide, and becoming involved in prostitution. An estimated 5,000 unaccompanied homeless youth die each year as a result of assault, illness or suicide. Adolescent women are among the most vulnerable and medically underserved groups of homeless individuals. Homeless female youth are at a high risk for early pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, and HIV due to poor access to health care, survival sex (trading sex for basic needs such as housing and food), substance abuse and other challenges.
Homeless youth have multiple special needs—such as mental and physical health needs, substance abuse, and lack of self-sufficiency skills and sustainable financial resources—requiring multiple levels of intervention and support. Homelessness, with its instability and associated traumas, often disrupts schooling and makes finishing high school very challenging, even though school is a lifeline for many. (For references for this section, see Footnotes 3-15).
Gender-specific, trauma-informed, resource enriched solutions for young people who lack basic supports such as stable, safe shelter and food, and the care of a parent or guardian are essential. The national Framework to End Youth Homelessness[1] calls for a two-prong approach to effectively serve homeless youth, namely settings which emphasize 1) trauma informed care in which youth can heal, and 2) support services that foster positive youth development, such as life skills building and educational and/or vocational advancement. A multi-faceted service and support framework emphasizing education, skill building, trauma resolution, and a safe, supportive environment are at the heart of effective outcomes. A high level of sensitivity to the special needs of homeless female youth and the physical and sexual traumas they have experienced is also essential. These special youth need time to heal, gender-specific, trauma-informed counseling and support services that make healing possible, and the opportunity to build the foundation for a secure future.
Guided by the Framework to End Youth Homelessness and Preventing and Ending Homelessness – A Coordinated Community Response[2], the Lotus House Youth Program provides safe, stable housing to youth for the duration of their high school and/or vocational training within the framework of a trauma-informed, comprehensive and coordinated support system that promotes positive youth development. To address basic needs, youth are provided with clothing, nourishing meals, access to health care, assistance with benefits and other social services, and have the opportunity to participate in a wide range of enrichment activities. Given their unique trauma histories, female youth benefit from gender specific programming to facilitate their healing and development. Evidence based and informed, trauma focused individual and group counseling allow traumatized youth to heal, learn and grow, and build resiliency and greater self-sufficiency for life's challenges. In addition to individual counseling and life coaching, positive youth development is fostered through a wide range of educational supports (such as school uniforms, supplies, transportation assistance, and school activities, such as field trips, proms, and graduation festivities), life skills building, job training and social activities, designed to build a youth's capacity to support herself, build self-esteem and avoid future homelessness. With individualized, multi-faceted support and resources, the Lotus House Youth Program provides essential tools to allow homeless unaccompanied young women to heal, thrive, and achieve their promise of a brighter future.
For young mothers with children ages 0 to 5 and women who are homeless and pregnant, our Children and Families Program is designed to provide a nurturing wrap around support system for both mothers and mothers-to-be and their children, together with the added support of evidence based and informed child therapy, child-parent therapy and parenting education, to ensure these fragile families can look forward to a happy and healthy fresh start to their new lives together.

The annual cost of food is the most expensive part of keeping a dog. There's such a wide range of dog food on the market - from €10 to €100 for a large bag of dry food, plus the choice of fresh food, from raw through to home cooked. Every different way of feeding a dog has its own proponents, but the truth is that there is no single ideal way for every dog.
The goal of owners should be to find a way of feeding their pet that suits their pets as individuals: the aim is a diet that the dog enjoys, that is reasonably priced and convenient to obtain, and that results in a dog that's well muscled, bright-eyed, glossy-coated and fit.
Readers may be shocked to learn that the most common negative impact of a poor diet in Irish dogs has nothing to do with the choice of foodstuff. It's far simpler. Irish dogs are too fat: they get too much food.
Estimates suggest that only one third of Irish dogs are at their ideal weight; two thirds are either overweight or obese. It's so common for dogs to be carrying too much weight that people see it as "normal". When dogs are at their optimal body weight, owners are accused by passers-by of starving their pets. It's as if we now like our dogs to be well-rounded.
Many people are too relaxed about this issue, perhaps believing that a little extra weight is a healthy sign of contentment, or even a sign that the animal is cherished by their owners. There's no truth in these ideas: if pets are allowed to gain too much weight, they suffer serious negative consequences.
A study published last week is a useful reminder of the damaged caused by obesity in pets. The study was done retrospectively, examining the records of over 50000 dogs over a twenty year period. The lifespans of dogs were compared, ranking those of overweight and obese dogs beside those in optimal body condition. The results were clear: dogs that carried extra weight had shorter lives. The magnitude of the difference varied from breed to breed: tubby German Shepherds lived for five months less than their lean counterparts, while obese Yorkshire Terriers died two and a half years earlier because of their excess weight. But the results were so consistent across all breeds that it can now be said with confidence: if you let your dog get too fat, they will die younger than if you keep them lean and fit.
If there was a disease that caused dogs to die prematurely like this, people would pay attention. They would be happy to pay for an injection or pill that prevented their pet from dying young. Yet for some reason, pet obesity is becoming increasingly common.
The life-shortening effect of extra weight is only one aspect of extra body weight. There are two other serious impacts: the aggravation of other diseases, and the significant impact on daily quality of life.
A number of common diseases are seriously aggravated by obesity, including heart disease, arthritis and diabetes. Research has shown that with many ill dogs, weight reduction can be as effective as powerful medication. Arthritis is probably the best example: if arthritic dogs are overweight, they can gain more benefit by losing weight than by taking the most potent medication. And dogs are more likely to die of heart failure if they are lugging around extra kilograms of body weight. So as well as these diseases being more common in overweight pets, the illnesses also have a more profound effect on the animal.
The impact on a dog's daily quality of life is the least well recognised aspect of obesity. The best example of this that I recall was a six year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel called Millie. She had ballooned to around 30% above her ideal body weight: she weighed 10kg instead of 7kg. And she was miserable. She had lost interest in everything apart from sleeping and eating. She stayed in bed all day, refusing to go for walks, and even refusing to interact with her owners in any way at all. She just slept, only emerging to eat at meal times.
Obesity is a chronic state of inflammation: blood samples from fat pets show elevated levels of inflammatory by products that affect the brain, causing depression. And levels of serotonin are reduced, again, causing a negative impact on the "happiness" state of the brain.
Millie was put onto a special diet, with high fibre and protein, and low carbohydrate. Her high fat treats like sausages and bacon rind were replaced by low fat versions such as raw carrots and pieces of popcorn. She was given measured amounts of food, instead of the "have as much as you want" approach that she was used to. She lost weight slowly but steadily, at a rate of around 2% per week. It took six months to reach her goal. Her owner was astonished at how her joy in life improved as her weight dropped. She stopped sleeping so much, and she began to play with her owners. She started to enjoy going for walks, even getting excited when the leash was brought out. Her owner told me that it was as if she had been transformed into a young dog again. "We thought that she was just slowing down with age. Now we realise that she was just suffering the bad effects of obesity."
If you want your dog to have a longer, happier, healthier life, make sure that you keep them at their ideal weight. And if you are not sure how to do this, talk to your local vet.

The Army is the oldest and largest branch of the Florida National Guard, with 9,951 assigned as of 31 January 2001. The Florida Army National Guard maintains 72 armories, and is present in 63 communities.
The first muster of militia troops in the continental United States took place on September 16, 1565 in the newly established Spanish presidio town of Saint Augustine, Florida. The militia served under the flag of Spain for 236 years, Great Britain for 20 years, and the Confederate States of America for 5 years. Florida's Army has defended the peninsula and nation against the French, Indians, English and a host of others who have attacked the state. In more recent times, Florida's Army has served in the war with Spain, on the Mexican border, in two World Wars, and the Persian Gulf War. Individual guardsmen have also fought in the Philippines, the Korean Conflict and in the jungles of Southeast Asia.
As part of the Total U. S. Army and Air Force, Florida soldiers and airmen spend a large part of their time (almost 99%) training to respond to the needs of the President and National Command Authority. The Army Guard has infantry, artillery, air defense artillery, signal units, special forces, aviation assets and support units.
The Florida National Guard is provided for by Section 2, Article X of the Florida State Constitution. As Commander-in-Chief of the Florida National Guard, the Governor looks to the Adjutant General to provide military organizations trained and equipped to function when necessary in the protection of life and property, and in the preservation of peace, order and the public safety.
The Department of Military Affairs is a state agency whose primary mission is to prepare for state and federal activation of the Florida National Guard. The department's head is the adjutant general. The department is staffed with both state and federal employees, many of whom serve in the Florida National Guard as a condition of their employment.
The Department of Military Affairs is located in St. Augustine, Florida. Camp Blanding, the department-managed 73,000-acre training site, is located approximately 45 miles west of St. Augustine in Clay County. Florida National Guard units are located throughout the state.
Florida National Guard participation in fire-fighting began on 25 May 1998 when members of EMS 13 reported to the State EOC and 3 UH-60 helicopters began dropping water from "Bambi Buckets". At the height of the Operation there were more than 1,500 Army and Air Guardsmen on State Active Duty. All of the Army and Air Guard's utility aircraft, as well as engineering and water pumping vehicles were committed. By the time the last soldiers and airmen came off of active duty in July, more than 1,800 different Guardsman had logged 21,332 man-days of service.
The Drug Interdiction program provides military support to local, state and federal law enforcement agencies statewide in the form of skilled personnel, unique equipment, and diverse types of military training. More than 170 Guardsmen work full-time supporting federal, state, and local LEAs to include: US Customs at all major ports of entry; Florida HIDTAs and the HIDTA Assistance Center; DEA, FBI, FAA, USPS, and FDLE. Local LEAs statewide with specialized training, ground and aerial surveillance and photorecon support. During calendar year 1999, FLNG assisted seizing approximately $6.6 million in currency, 640 lbs of cocaine, and 3,428 lbs of marijuana. Guard's Drug Demand Reduction Program continued to impact the youth of Florida and added value to Florida communities. During the 1998-99 school year, members made 196 presentations in 142 high schools, reaching 22,249 students. Eleven states have now adopted Florida's program. Over the summer, approximately 1,700 students from 95 high schools participated in a two-week leadership and confidence program conducted at Camp Blanding Training Site.
During FY99 the Florida Army National Guard performed its federal and state missions while focusing on people, readiness and dedicated service. The FLARNG was called out four times to assist local law enforcement and emergency management agencies with wildfires and hurricanes that threatened local citizens. FLARNG personnel also contributed to ongoing military operations overseas. The 125th Fighter Wing pulled a rotation as part of Operation Northern Watch over Iraq. Company E, 11th Aviation provided air traffic controllers in the Gulf as part of a multi-state National Guard task force. Men and women from the Florida Guard also participated in Operation New Horizons, bringing medical assistance to the people of Nicaragua.

After driving 1.7m miles in six years, Google's self-driving car has been involved in only 11 minor accidents – none of which were Google's fault – according to the internet giant's director of the self-driving car programme, Chris Urmson.
The vehicles sustained light damage with no injuries to passengers, Urmson said in a Medium post. These incidents he said were of the nature of accidents that aren't always reported to police, yet according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) these accidents account for 55pc of all crashes.
"One of the most important things we need to understand in order to judge our cars' safety performance is 'baseline' accident activity on typical suburban streets," Urmson said.
"Quite simply, because many incidents never make it into official statistics, we need to find out how often we can expect to get hit by other drivers. Even when our software and sensors can detect a sticky situation and take action earlier and faster than an alert human driver, sometimes we won't be able to overcome the realities of speed and distance; sometimes we'll get hit just waiting for a light to change.
Urmson said the only way to understand crashes is to spend enough time on the road and if you spend enough time on the road accidents will happen.
"Over the six years since we started the project, we've been involved in 11 minor accidents (light damage, no injuries) during those 1.7m miles of autonomous and manual driving with our safety drivers behind the wheel, and not once was the self-driving car the cause of the accident.
"Rear-end crashes are the most frequent accidents in America, and often there's little the driver in front can do to avoid getting hit; we've been hit from behind seven times, mainly at traffic lights but also on the freeway.

Talla en madera de las Islas Marquesas  es una práctica llevada a cabo por muchos de los maestros artesanos locales, conocidos como tuhuna. Los tuhuna no únicamente son expertos en la talla en madera, sino también en el arte del tatuaje y en la elaboración de palos de guerra.  Los artesanos marquesanos de madera son considerados entre los más finos de la Polinesia Francesa; son muy solicitados, y de una calidad constantemente alta, aunque el tejido, la cestería y la pintura de pareo son los más populares, especialmente entre las mujeres artesanas. Paul Gauguin destacó el sentido artístico de la decoración de las marquesas y apreció el « inaudito sentido de la decoración» en sus formas de arte creativo.

Historia
Las figuras de madera de la prehistoria de las Islas Marquesas pueden revelar mucho sobre las primeras prácticas de los pueblos locales. La popularidad de la talla en madera se debió a su creciente demanda en el extranjero. Esto también fue consecuencia de la introducción de herramientas importadas para tallar a finales del siglo XIX. Como resultado, surgieron nuevos estilos en el tallado de madera, como la decoración de toda la superficie de un artefacto con diseños en bajo relieve que tenían similitudes con los diseños de los tatuajes. Esto se hizo para satisfacer la creciente demanda de recuerdos turísticos a finales del siglo XIX.

Cultivo de la madera
El material utilizado para hacer artefactos incluye el palo de rosa de Oceanía (Miro o Mi'o), nogal de Oceanía (tou), madera de hierro (aito), el cocotero (tumu ha'ari o tumu'ehi), así como el palo de rosa del Pacífico (Thespesia populnea) y temana (Calophyllum inophyllum); la madera de hierro (Casuarina equisetifolia) se utiliza para tallar bastones de guerra y otros artefactos. El sándalo fue retirado de las marquesas entre 1814 y 1817.  Es importante para el pueblo marquesano utilizar madera de las islas, por su calidad y porque sigue la tradición de sus antepasados. Típicamente, la madera se seca durante 10 años y luego se trata contra las plagas. Si bien algunos artesanos cultivan árboles en sus propios jardines para sus productos de madera, también los compran a vendedores que los cultivan en los valles.

Productos

En 1961, los Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History  del Museo Americano de Historia Natural documentaron que «el número de figuras de madera de la época histórica recogidas en las marquesas atestigua la cantidad de tallas de madera para fines monumentales». La isla Ua Huka es particularmente conocida en la zona por sus tallas de madera. Los objetos comunes incluyen representaciones escultóricas de dioses polinesios, personajes humanos y animales, así como artículos utilitarios en forma de cuencos, palas o bastones simbólicos. En las tallas de madera de Nuku Hiva se encuentran bastones de palo de rosa, junto con cuencos y lanzas hechos de las primeras épocas, mientras que posteriormente se tallaron tableros y figuras de ajedrez. La figura tiki, «una figura antropomorfa retratada con enormes ojos ovalados, cejas arqueadas y boca abierta», es típica de las artes marquesanas. Aunque los tikis son más comunes como estatuas de piedra, también son motivos familiares en la talla en madera y en los tatuajes en las islas. Se han encontrado diseños de patrones decorativos tanto para la talla en madera como para los tatuajes del cuerpo, como el honu kea, mata hoata, poka'a  y enata.

The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman is a book for young adults which I enjoyed immensely. The story begins with a triple homicide, the surviving child wanders into the local graveyard and is raised by ghosts. Now if that opening sequence doesn't grab your attention, nothing will! The young protagonist, Nobody Owens, is brought up by the various ghosts who live in the graveyard and they all have a story to tell.
I enjoyed the fact that most books and films dramatize graveyards as a spooky place where sad things happen, Gaiman turns this idea on it's head and makes the reader feel safe within the walls of the cemetery and wary of the outside world. In most graveyards, there are hundreds of people from hundreds of different backgrounds and time periods buried beneath the soil. The author used this feature brilliantly, I loved hearing the different characters deaths and ideas of life and death. They ranged from a witch burned at the stake to an ancient Celtic spirit.
Although the book starts brilliantly, I felt let down at times at the way the book meanders along towards the end point, I felt that Gaiman could have incorporated Nobody's quest to find his parents killer more into the development of the tale. I also thought Nobody was quite a bland character, he didn't have many personable traits, in my mind he was the perfect son. Nobody learns different ghoulish powers from various ghosts, I was thinking how I'd use such skills to other more mischievous ends!
My edition of the book was brilliantly illustrated by David McKean, only upon finishing the book I realized there is a graphic novel version produced, which I must pick up at some stage.I would recommend this book to younger teenagers as well as young adults. I enjoyed the book as an adult, it is funny and full of historical references, an aspect of which I enjoyed.
Chaos Walking Trilogy by Patrick Ness- As good as Tolkein's or Pullman's trilogies?
People dismiss Young Adult books to the teenagers of this world, but you are missing out on some of the best books around if you do.The Chaos Walking Trilogy is a series of books by American born British writer Patrick Ness. I think this trilogy will get the recognition it deserves. After a period of time, I believe it can sit proudly on the same shelf as J.R.R Tolkein's Lord of the Rings and Phillip Pullman's Dark Materials. Now I know readers, especially fans of Tolkein would say that nothing can compare to the Lord of the Rings but I believe the Chaos Walking series is similar in the way the protagonist goes on a physical and spiritual journey to save the world. I thoroughly enjoyed the series. It is made up of three books- The Knife of Never Letting Go, the Ask and the Answer and the final book Monsters of Men.
The first book of the trilogy is the best in my opinion, it centres on a boy called Todd Hewitt who grows up in a world where no females exist, and everyone can hear each others thoughts. Even the animals thoughts can be heard. Todd lives in a dystopia of fear and suppression under the rule of the 'Mayor' who is the arch enemy. An incident forces Todd to go on the run from the government and the adventure begins. The fact that everyone can hear each other was a brilliant idea. I felt this was the author suggesting that we are all connected nowadays, that we have no privacy with social media and therefore we 'hear' each others thought. I loved the relationship that existed between Todd and his loyal dog Manchee. I also thought one of the many evil characters in the story, Aaron was a supremely complex and complicated person.
The Ask and the Answer is a very different book. Todd is situated in a town where he must decide which side he must join in the middle of the war. Ness once again makes it very hard for the reader to distinguish what might be the 'good' side and what might be the side to oppose. I enjoyed this feature as you could easily empathize with one army and make an argument for their cause. The ambiguity of empathy creates an uneasiness to the book, leaving the reader constantly torn between the opposing factions. I felt this book however lost the cutting edge and fast pace of the first. The plot meanders along and it is very unclear what the end point might be. The book is merely a prelude to the concluding book where all the questions are answered.
Monster of Men is the final book in the trilogy, it is a continuation of the second book as the war rumbles on, Todd begins to become a man and is forced to make huge decisions as both a leader and as an individual. Todd begins to hone his own mental strength in order to use it against people. He is faced with many moral decisions. The ending is brilliant to the trilogy and brought great closure to the story.
Because all the males of the planet can hear each other, the book is written in a very unusual style where one must adjust. The narrative is a running commentary on what Todd is thinking so nothing is left out. We also get to hear what the other characters are thinking which makes the book clear and focussed. The most interesting aspect of the book is it is laden with bad grammar and spelling mistakes when Todd is thinking. This was done to remind the reader that we are reading Todds mind, it plays on his accent it also also that he was illiterate in the story and couldn't spell. This made me empathize with Todd straight away but I know other readers find it frustrating and wish to correct the mistakes as they are reading the story.The trilogy is full of love, misery, cruelty and above all suspense.
These three books are some of the best pieces of writing I have read. I encourage you to read the first book and get started. I think they will go down as modern classics. I would argue they are as good as anything Pullman or Tolkein has written. Do you agree? If you don't, even better! Please leave a comment.
I have been reading a lot of Patrick Ness' work lately, the Chaos Walking trilogy was exceptional and More Than This was certainly another thought-provoking book, it had a poor ending unfortunately but was a great read nonetheless. A Monster Calls by Ness is a terribly sad and cruel book but deals with the raw human emotions one would feel with a dying parent.
Ness was asked by the family of deceased author Siobhán Dowd to complete the book based on the manuscript Dowd had started before passing away from cancer. The young protagonist in the story Conor is going through the turmoil of watching his mother die slowly and painfully before his eyes from cancer. Conor has other worries though, he is visited frequently by a horrific monster outside his window most nights. The monster is both a hindrance and a help to young Conor and he struggles to see if the ghoul is real or is it just simply the manifestation of his troubled mind. I loved guessing whether the monster was real or imaginary in the story, it never becomes clear but it fades into insignificance as the book draws to the end. The monster flips from being both friend and foe depending on it's humor,this lead to an edge of uneasiness in the narrative which kept one guessing.
The book is dark and desperately sad. It is a compelling read as it takes the form of a fairy tale, the monster tells three stories in the book which are entirely unconventional stories which are supposed to teach Conor some meaning in his battle with grief. However, the stories are cruel and puzzling, I enjoyed this aspect of the book, I also felt that the book really dealt with the true emotions of death, not the typical Hollywood style grief. Conor is not heartbroken, nor does he mope around and feel sorry for himself. He is angry and embarrassed. He hates the attention of being the only child of a sick mother. He hates feeling different. As harsh as it sounds, he is almost relieved by his mothers death in spite of loving her as much as any son would.
The book is short, it could be easily read in an hour or two, the illustrations in the book by Jim Kay are haunting and powerful. They are some of the most moving pictures I have seen in any book. The monster is enormous and grotesque, the pictures are dark and grainy. The illustrations underlines the enormity of the burden Conor feels as he stumbles through the story.It really added to the book. A Monster Calls is a book every person who grieves should read. It is also a book I would recommend to a teenager or young adult who is experiencing the loss of a parent or an ill relative. One could not have but a heavy heart when finishing this book.

Manu makes his return to Tigers action
The sight of Manu Tuilagi back on the field brought an added positive to victory for Leicester Tigers at Bristol on Friday.
Ruled out by a groin injury since his try-scoring appearance in the opening game of the season at Gloucester in September, Tuilagi returned with 20 minutes off the bench in the win at Ashton Gate on Friday.
Tigers director of rugby Richard Cockerill said: "It's great to see Manu back on the pitch. He has been training hard, he looks lean and in good shape.
"We got 20 minutes out of him, we have just got to keep getting him on the field and getting time. He will be very important to us. He will get his form back and hopefully we will have the Manu Tuilagi we all know and love back on the field."
Tigers made it four consecutive wins in all competitions with a 21-16 triumph at Bristol, and Cockerill was also happy with the form and commitment shown in defence.
"We've conceded one try in two games," he said. "I thought that was good tonight. The boys have worked hard, their resilience is good and momentum is really important.
"Now we get ourselves freshened up and we come back in on Monday to prepare for the derby with Saints."
Tigers host Northampton Saints at Welford Road on Saturday in a 5pm kick-off. Match tickets are available now at the Tigers ticket office, open 9am-5pm Monday-Saturday. Book in person, phone 0116 319 8888 (option 2) or click here to book online any time.

La  du Tour d'Italie 2022 se déroule le mercredi  de Santarcangelo di Romagna (Émilie-Romagne) à Reggio d'Émilie (Émilie-Romagne), en Italie, sur une distance de .

Parcours
Au départ de Santarcangelo di Romagna, à proximité de Rimini, cette étape présente un profil tout à fait plat, exclusivement tracé en Emilie-Romagne, à travers les provinces de Rimini, Forli-Cesena, Ravenne, Bologne, Modène et de Reggio d'Emilie. La victoire d'étape est faite pour les sprinteurs.

Au programme, seulement deux sprints intermédiaires, situés à Toscanella di Dozza (76,4) et à San Giovanni in Persiceto (km 126,7).

Déroulement de la course
Vainqueur d'étape la veille, l'Erythréen Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert Matériaux) est non-partant, après une blessure à l'œil lors du podium protocolaire.

Dès le kilomètre zéro, deux coureurs s'échappent du peloton : les deux Italiens Luca Rastelli (Colpack-Ballan) et Filippo Tagliani (Drone Hopper-Androni Giocattoli). A 158,4 kilomètres de l'arrivée, une chute se produit dans le peloton, l'Américain Lawson Craddock (BikeExchange Jayco), le Danois Mattias Skjelmose Jensen (Trek-Segafredo) et le Finlandais Jaakko Hänninen (AG2R Citroën) tombent à terre.

Au sprint intermédiaire de Toscanella di Dozza, Filippo Tagliani passe en tête devant son compatriote, avec quatre minutes et vingt-cinq secondes d'avance sur le peloton, dans lequel le Britannique Mark Cavendish (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl) devance l'Italien Giacomo Nizzolo (Israel-Premier Tech) et le Français Arnaud Démare (Groupama FDJ).

A quatre-vingt-douze kilomètres de l'arrivée, les deux Transalpins de front sont repris par le peloton. Au sprint bonus de San Giovanni in Persiceto, le champion olympique équatorien Richard Carapaz (INEOS Grenadiers) passe en tête, récupérant trois secondes de bonifications, lui permettant de revenir à la troisième place du classement général, à égalité avec le Portugais João Almeida (UAE Emirates). Un temps distancé, l'Australien Caleb Ewan (Lotto-Soudal) réintègre le peloton.

A cinquante-huit kilomètres de l'arrivée, le Belge Dries De Bondt (Alpecin-Fenix) s'extirpe en solitaire à l'avant. Son avance maximale sur le peloton n'excède pas les deux minutes. Il est finalement repris à mille-trois-cents mètres de la ligne d'arrivée. L'Italien Alberto Dainese (DSM) remporte l'étape au sprint devant le Colombien Fernando Gaviria (UAE Emirates) et l'Italien Simone Consonni (Cofidis) ; il s'agit de sa première victoire en World Tour.

Il n'y a aucun changement dans les différents classements : l'Espagnol Juan Pedro López (Trek-Segafredo) conserve le maillot rose et le maillot blanc ; le Néerlandais Koen Bouwman (Jumbo-Visma) garde le maillot bleu, tout comme Arnaud Démare avec le maillot violet. La Bora-Hansgrohe reste première au classement par équipes.

The ancient Town Hall mirrors Montalcino's "way of being" with its elegant and imposing posture
The Palazzo del Podestà is an austere stone construction built in the 13th and 14th centuries, and in the 16th-century, a loggia was added along with a statue of the Grand Duke Cosimo I de 'Medici. It served as the Palace of Justice (with prisons) and then the Communal Palace until the 19th-century. It then became the court where the head of justice, the judge, the notary, and the grand-ducal vicar deliberated their sentences.
Numerous noble coats of arms and inscriptions of those who held office are visible on the facade and the clock tower. The bells still ring from the tower's top, keeping the time and the life of a city where it has always played a central role.
Many speculate that its appearance reflects the antagonism between the Ghibelline Siena and the Guelph Florence, which characterized the long centuries of wars and sieges in the history of a Montalcino disputed for its strategic position and its proud autonomy.
The Palazzo is unique in the panorama of medieval municipal buildings and does not seem to fit Montalcino's penchant for copying Siena on a smaller scale. In his travels, the Grand Duke of Tuscany Pietro Leopoldo d'Asburgo Lorena observed, "one of Montalcino's great passions is to have all things in small as in Siena." The building is more reminiscent of a Florentine style, typical of the architect and sculptor Arnolfo di Cambio, suggesting that its construction corresponded to a period when the city was in the graces of Florence.
This aspect changed between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, but not the city's symbol, which today houses the municipal offices and the City Council.
The bell tower casts its shadow over the main square, home to the outdoor market and the palaces symbolizing the power of the Gonfaloniere, the Priori and the Municipal Chancellery, the noble houses, the Chapel of the Piazza, and the Logge (which once had large windows with a view of the Val d'Orcia). Today, this is the "sitting room" of Montalcino, the heart of life and tourism in the Brunello area, with its cafes and shops.
Montalcino, a "pioneer" city of urban gardens
Whether owned by townspeople or priests, among the houses, along the ancient walls, and at the foot of church bell towers, you can still find Montalcino's "secret gardens". The oldest of them are around the great Convents. The Sant'Agostino is at the city's summit; Santa Caterina da Siena is roughly halfway down. The San Francesco convent is the lowest but boasts an incomparable view of Montalcino and its green interludes between streets and ancient buildings.
The city's inhabitants tend to the gardens as their ancestors did in the past when they represented an almost inexhaustible source of supplies in times of wars and sieges. These pioneering urban gardens, still visible today, peaked in the Middle Ages and again in the early nineteenth century. There were as many as 250 gardens, all within the ancient walls of Montalcino.
They were planted with an incredible variety of plants, cultivated strictly according to the seasons and according to the fundamentals dictated by ancient wisdom. Quality and quantity were "measured". Vines and olive trees, considered precious even then, were planted alongside fruit trees of all kinds: peach and cherry, apple, plums, pear, jujube, almond, and fig were the most common. Vegetables were planted under and around the trees and vines.
Montalcino and great cycling, a story of emotions and legendary stages
Montalcino and outstanding cycling share some history, a history of legendary stages, known here as "tappe". The Giro d'Italia is an annual multiple-stage professional cycling race first organized in 1909.
The first and one of the most memorable "Giro d'Italia" tappe to pass through Montalcino was in 1987 on May 25th during the 70th edition. Moreno Argentin, the then world champion, crossed the finish line of stage n. 4 (Camaiore-Montalcino) to ecstatic crowds and a Montalcino dressed in pink, the signature color of the race.
The second time was on May 15th 2010, for stage n. 7 (Carrara-Montalcino), a special stage dedicated to Italy's revered cycling legends, Gino Bartali, a decade after his passing. In the footsteps of the extraordinary exploits of past cycling heroes, the cyclists braved dust, fatigue, and rain along the dirt roads that wind through the vineyards of Brunello. The finish is still the historic center of Montalcino. This time, the last kilometers traversed the rough cobblestone streets, with cycling champion, Cadel Evans, made almost unrecognizable by the water and mud. Just a few days earlier, Andrea and Fausto, the heirs of two champions, Bartali and Coppi, symbolically exchanged water bottles along the route.
The third time promises to be quite a show, not only for the return of the pink caravan but because, once again, the protagonist of stage n. 11 of Giro d'Italian 2021 will be the breathtaking beauty of Montalcino's white roads. On May 19th, all eyes will be on the "Brunello di Montalcino Wine Stage" for the stage that runs from Perugia to Montalcino: 163 kilometers, 70 running through the vineyard rows and the final 35 on the characteristic white dirt roads.
Soldati, Veronelli and the "ritual" of topping up the Brunello vintages
Among the many places that have made Italy famous and unique for its beauty and authenticity is Montalcino. Undoubtedly some credit must go to Mario Soldati and Luigi Veronelli, the greatest masters of Italian journalism and food and wine criticism. Their destinies crossed many a time, and one of the most fortuitous encounters was in the land of Brunello. They anticipated the times with keen intuitions and were the first to narrate Italy's rich agricultural landscapes, foods and cultivations.
The first historic encounter was in 1970 when they participated together in the ritual of "topping up" the wine from the same vintage as the old Brunello Reserves at Tenuta Greppo. The unique practice of topping up was created here at the end of the 19th century and essentially extended the life of a wine for decades. The process involved uncorking and refilling the bottles back to their proper level and recorking. The first time it took place was in 1927 for the 1888 and 1891 Reserves.
Veronelli would go on to tell his readers of the "perfect tasting" (among the Reserves there was also a 1955 vintage, considered one of the best wines of the twentieth century by "Wine Spectator"). He explained how these are the wines you can spend a lifetime looking for and how "every good taste of Brunello reminds me of Gustav Mahler ". Soldati would find confirmation of how "Brunello can age virtually indefinitely, improving, I dare say, always".
In "Vino al Vino", his most important work, he reflected on the origin of Brunello's considerable "fortune". Soldati maintained that it not only in the wine's longevity but also in the beauty of a territory suited to excellent wines. A unique mix of climate, soil, rich biodiversity, woodlands, olive groves and cultivated fields plays a role, as does the pioneering intuition which led to the delimitation of the production boundaries to the territory of Montalcino in the 30s.
What makes a case for Brunello all the more exciting is that all of this resulted from "modern" invention. Agriculture enlightened by academic studies led to the simple yet brilliant choice of a single grape, Sangiovese Grosso. Thus, Brunello distinguished itself from other wines by looking at the French benchmark: the fruit of one, but at the base of collective success.
From Zeffirelli to Monicelli, Montalcino, a famous film location
Only foreign film buffs may be familiar with many of the names and films listed here, but rest assured, they are, collectively, important representations of Italian culture, and testimony to how Montalcino has remained a choice location for the film industry.
Alongside the famous Brunello wines, Montalcino is renowned as the film set of many great directors. Their cameras "captured" the beauty and poetry of the territory. Take Franco Zeffirelli, who for "Brother sun, sister Moon" (1972), a masterpiece of Italian cinema with Graham Faulkner, Judi Bowker and Valentina Cortese, chose Montalcino and the Abbey of Sant'Antimo. Or in 1988, the French director, Otar Losseliani, who shot the documentary film "A small monastery in Tuscany".
But already in 1941, the director, Esodo Pratelli, had set the historical film "La Pia dei Tolomei" in Montalcino. Since then, the range and list of films has grown: (1955) "Il Falco d'Oro"by Carlo Ludovico Bragaglia, and in (1957) "Io Caterina" by Oreste Palella, (1961) "La viaccia" by Mauro Bolognini, with Jean-Paul Belmondo and Claudia Cardinale. In (1965) came the masterpiece "L'armata Brancaleone" by Mario Monicelli with the great Vittorio Gassman who played the timeless role of Brancaleone da Norcia.
The 70s opened to "La Calandria" in (1972) by Pasquale Festa Campanile, with Lando Buzzanca and Barbara Bouchet, followed by the 1975 film "Irene, Irene" by Peter del Monte.
In 1983, the "Bonnie and Clyde all'italiana" (1983) was directed by Steno, with Paolo Villaggio and Ornella Muti, and "Le Novelle del Boccaccio" was shot in (1986) by Swiss director Grytzko Mascioni.
The cinematic love story with Montalcino continues today: (1998) "Thanks for everything" by Luca Manfredi, with Nancy Brilli and Nino Manfredi; "At the right moment" (2000) by and with Giorgio Panariello, from "L ' love found "(2004) by Carlo Mazzacurati, with Stefano Accorsi and Maya Sansa; " Letters to Juliet "(2010) by Gary Winick, with Amanda Seyfried and Vanessa Redgrave in the vineyards of Caparzo; " Maraviglioso Boccaccio "(2015) by the Taviani brothers, with Lello Arena, Kasia Smutniak, Carolina Crescentini, Paola Cortellesi, Riccardo Scamarcio, Vittoria Puccini, Kim Rossi Stuart and Jasmine Trinca at Castello Romitorio.
Even the pandemic couldn't keep the cameras from rolling. Just a year ago, James d'Arcy chose Montalcino for "Made in Italy" (2020) with Liam Neeson, in Argiano.
Montalcino, land of cathedrals, convents, abbeys, churches and shrines
As you observe the elegant profile of Montalcino from the slopes of its hill, it is clear that the city is rich in churches and religious buildings, which in number and importance constitute a unicum, testimony of the vital role religion played in past centuries. Among the most notable are the Cathedral of San Salvatore, built on a Romanesque church of the year 1000 in the oldest and highest point of the city, and the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Soccorso, the patron saint of Montalcino. Exemplary is the Church of Sant'Egidio built by the Sienese in the fourteenth century, where the flags of the 17 Contrade del Palio di Siena are exceptionally preserved. Stroll around the imposing complexes of the Churches and Convents of Sant'Agostino and San Francesco. The Church of Sant'Antonio Abate to the Church of San Lorenzo in San Pietro, passes through the small churches of Santa Croce, della Misericordia and Corpus Domini. This complex formed the secular seats in the Middle Ages, of which Montalcino was unusually rich, and essential Hospitals, which operated for the social and health care of the city.
The most "powerful" of them all was the Hospital of Santa Maria della Croce, whose vast patrimony in real and personal property also included farms, orchards, mills, vineyards and olive groves scattered throughout the countryside. Even the territory reflects the religious soul of Montalcino: villages, castles, villas and farms – today owned by numerous Brunello wineries which, in many cases, have saved them from abandonment – are almost always characterized by the presence of churches and chapels. A stunning example next to the Abbey of Sant'Antimo, the Romanesque "jewel" in Tuscany, is the Parish Church of Sant'Andrea Apostolo at Badia Ardenga. The church was the most important sacred monument in the area after Sant'Antimo. As you stroll, take notice of the fourteenth-century Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, and the Church and Convent of Santa Maria dell'Osservanza just outside the city walls. From there visit the Pieve di San Michele Arcangelo, which preserves frescoes by Pietro Lorenzetti, and the Pieve di Santa Restituta, the oldest in the area. We've only named a few, but it should give an idea of the remarkable presence religion has played in Montalcino's history.
The countess and the poet, a history of literature and wine in Montalcino
Not many can boast mention in an illustrious quote, such as this appreciative verse by one of the greatest poets and the first Italian to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1906.
If the Montalcino wines can do it, the credit goes to an otherworldly woman of a different era. "I wipe myself with the Argiano wine, which is so good", Giosuè Carducci wrote in an enthusiastic letter dated 1886 and addressed to Countess Ersilia Caetani Lovatelli, owner at the time of the historic Arginao cellar. The Renaissance villa, surrounded by Brunello vineyards, was designed by Baldassarre Peruzzi, one of the greatest architects ever. The Villa has remained in the hands of noble families like the Peccis, who commissioned the 16th-century project.
Since then, it has always represented a unicum in Montalcino, much like Ersilia herself. She was known for her great culture; she challenged the conventions of the time, according to which women could not study, and devoted herself to archeology. She learned Greek, Latin and Sanskrit, wrote books and publications, and was the first woman to enter the Italian Academy of the Lincei in 1879. She became a member of prestigious academies like Crusca and was awarded the Laurea Honoris Causa from the University of Halle.
The Argiano cellar, built in the seventeenth century, was already well known. However, the international appreciation came to the production of Argiano's wines thanks to the countess. The Villa became a literary salon hosting some of the most important Italian poets, such as Carducci. Among the members of Ersilia's circle of "intelligentsia" were the poet Gabriele D'Annunzio and the French writer and philosopher Émile Zola.
Brunello, the story of a modern phenomenon, the result of an invention
Brunello is the result of an invention and an intuition. At the end of the nineteenth century, an exceptional cultural "humus" grew in Montalcino. A rarity for such a small territory to gather such an enlightened bourgeoisie – represented by historical families such as the Angelini, Anghirelli, Paccagnini and Costanti. In collaboration with the era's leading scientists and writers and against Italy's current thought, they decided to bet everything on the single vine, gruff and challenging, that proved to give its best in Montalcino. The spark ignited in the Greppo Estate, where the inventor of Brunello, the "Garibaldino" Ferruccio Biondi Santi, selected Sangiovese Grosso vinifying it in purity. After all of this, the day after official DOC recognition, one of Italy's first, the Consortium, was founded in 1967. At the time, only a few farmers were aware of the incredible potential, and Primo Pacenti is remembered as one of them.
Thanks to the entrepreneurial spirit and dedicated work, known as the "Grande Opera" of Castello Banfi, Montalcino became an actual district in the mid-seventies. This initial momentum triggered substantial investments, from new vineyards to cellars, from marketing to communication, which raised the territory's image. Brunello (first DOCG of Italy, in 1980) is internationally renowned, thanks to the historic local families, the most important Italian wine companies that also have vineyards in Montalcino, but also of entrepreneurs and famous people who have chosen it to produce wine. Since then, Brunello has reached top-tier judgments from the most influential world critics: The Wine Advocate, James Suckling, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and Vinous by Antonio Galloni. Labels such as Biondi Santi and Case Basse are in great demand by collectors at major international auctions. Vineyards are worth up to 1 million euros per hectare for a lucrative 180 million euro business. The Brunello district's current production is 14 million bottles, 9 of Brunello and over 4 of Rosso, 70% for export.
Montalcino "sacred and profane", between heretics, saints and blessed
"Sacred and profane" is a Montalcino that also tells of heretics, saints and blessed. Like Giovanni Moglio, a Franciscan friar of the Convent of San Francesco, born in the city in the early sixteenth century, who paid with his life for his preaching to the common people. In contrast to the intermediation between man and God proposed by the Roman Church, he was inspired by early Christianity. Thus, he was suspected of heresy in Rome by the newly established Inquisition Office and the first to be publicly judged. On September 4th 1553, he was hanged and burned at the stake in Campo de'Fiori, where Giordano Bruno died half a century later. A few years earlier, in 1516 in Florence, Pope Leo X sanctified among the Church's martyrs those Franciscan missionaries who, on 10 October 1227, after a long period of torture, were beheaded by the Saracens in Ceuta, Morocco, guilty of preaching the Gospel. Among these, there was also a monk from Montalcino: San Donnolo Donnoli. Two of the most important streets of the city are dedicated to each of them.
Walking through the streets, you arrive at their Church and Convent of San Francesco, in which it is said that the relics of Blessed Filippino Ciardelli, companion of St. Anthony of Padua and St. Francis, were kept. He was known for the intensity of his mystical asceticism and the healings performed in life and post mortem, and of which the Franciscan propaganda claimed the local origins. In the polyptych "Deposition of Christ from the cross", one of the most important works on display in the Montalcino Museums, Bartolo di Fredi, a renowned artist from the 14th-century Sienese school, depicts the life of an ascetic, the ecstasies in the woods, and the miracles witnessed by his Franciscan companions and the city's inhabitants.
Montalcino, city of men-at-arms and sieges
Outside and inside the walls and the imposing Fortress of Montalcino, numerous armies and leagues of soldiers, Sienese, Florentine, French, Spanish and more have passed through, led by brave men-at-arms such as Giordano Orsini, Don Garcia de Toledo, Andrea Spagni, Panfilo dell'Oca, Mario Sforza, Giulio Vieri, Piero Strozzi and Blaise de Monluc.
Whether enemy or foe, these distinguished characters are among the era's most famous protagonists in the art of war, and their acts of bravery spanned five centuries of long brutal sieges. Montalcino was seen as a strategic "piazza" stronghold for its dominating position at 564 meters above sea level, with views ranging from Val d'Orcia to Casentino, Monte Amiata to Maremma, and from Siena to the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines.
An ongoing war between the Ghibelline Siena and the Guelph Florence saw the two powers alternately lay claim to rule the city during the 13th century. The noteworthy battle of Montaperti "which turned Arbia red" in 1260, is how Dante recalled it in the Divine Comedy. In the 14th century, the inhabitants of Montalcino, including the elderly, clergy, women, and children, joined the armed soldiers in the Sienese Republic's battles. According to historical documents from the period, the citizens were never caught off guard by assaults. They repaired the fortress walls at night, and they never went a day without "delicious bread and excellent wine".
Montalcino came to represent a second home for the Sienese after their defeat at the Siena war. The French Emperor called war on the Spanish emperor, Charles V and the Pope. After the victorious defense of Montalcino from the Imperial and Medici militias in 1553, and the defeat and surrender of Siena in 1555, the Sienese exiles withdrew to Montalcino, a refuge on which they founded the Republic of Siena, and even minted coins.
Montalcino was also the last bastion to pass into Cosimo I de Medici's hands, on 4 August 1559 with the peace treaty Cateau-Cambrésis between France and Spain, but never fell under their arms. Feeding the legend of a city that, looking at its interests and autonomy, will never be conquered.

A recent fatal accident in Brooklyn may have to apply the foregoing process to determine fault and civil liability for death damages. The decedent was a 24-year-old driver of a Daily News delivery truck. As he passed through an intersection, a green cab hit the truck, knocking it on its side. The man was rushed to a local hospital but was declared dead by hospital personnel.
Instead of needing a full forensic reconstruction, liability may be easier to determine in this case because a video of the accident was taken by a motorist who had a camera on the dashboard of his car. According to him, the video shows the truck being hit by the green cab that had gone through a red light. It reportedly struck the truck with such force that it toppled the truck over.
The cab driver had only been driving for the company for two weeks. He challenged the findings of the video, saying he had the green light and the truck went through the red light. If the video is clear-cut and of good quality, the issue of fault in this fatal accident may be easy to decide. If it shows what its owner says it shows, then the estate of the deceased driver will prevail under New York law in a wrongful death claim for damages. If the video is not clear or of good quality, forensic evidence may yet have to be gathered and evaluated to determine which vehicle went through the red light.

Q: Assigning numpy array new value depending upon existing values I have numpy array agent which contains 'y' or 'n'. I wanted to replace 'y' with 1 and 'n' with 0 and where something else is present say nan I want to assign -1. Script I wrote was
agent[agent=='y']=1
agent[agent=='n']=0
agent[(agent!='y') and (agent!='n')]=-1
agent=agent.astype(int)

It gave error "The truth value of an array with more than one element is ambiguous. Use a.any() or a.all()"
I understand I can use loops but I want to do this in one line in as simple way as I can

A: Why not first make an array of -1, then fill with 1 and 0 based on agent
result = np.ones_like(agent, dtype=np.int) *-1
result [agent == 'y'] = 1
result [agent == 'n'] = 0

A: First of all, given the order of assignments you have, if it worked, you'd have your whole array filled with -1's.
That being said, you can do:
agent[(agent != 0) & (agent != 1)] = -1

You can also consider using a masked array.

A: I would recommend creating a transformation function, f, that returns 0 for 'n', 1 for 'y', and -1 otherwise.
Then I would do:
desired_array = [f(cell) for cell in agent]

Property taxes are local taxes.
Your most important right as a taxpayer is your right to protest to the appraisal review board (ARB).
What is an Appraisal Review Board (ARB)?
An ARB is a group of citizens authorized to resolve disputes between taxpayers and the appraisal district. In taxpayer protests, it listens to both the taxpayer and the chief appraiser. The ARB determines if the appraisal district has acted properly.
Is the proposed value of your property too high?
Ask one of the district's appraisers to explain the appraisal. Be sure the property description is correct. Are the measurements for your home or business and lot accurate?
Gather blueprints, deed records, photographs, a survey or your own measurements to contest the appraiser's decision.
Are there any defects not noted in the district's survey, such as a cracked foundation or inadequate plumbing?
Obtain photographs, statements from builders or independent appraisers.
Ask the appraisal district for appraisal records on similar properties in your area. Is there a big difference in their values?
This comparison may show that your property wasn't treated equally.
Ask the appraisal district for the sales that it used.
Use sales of properties similar to yours in size, location and type of construction, use recent sales(sales occurring close to January1 are best), and weigh the costs of preparing a protest against the potential tax savings. Preparing a protest may not be worth the time and expense if it results in only a small tax savings.
Is your property valued unequally compared with other property in the appraisal district?
Determine whether the value of your property is closer to market value than other, similar properties.
For example, your property may be appraised at 100 percent of market value, while your neighbors' properties may be appraised at 90 percent. A protest based on the level of appraisal requires more evidence based on samples and value adjustments.
Did the chief appraiser deny an exemption?
First, find out why the chief appraiser did so. If the chief appraiser denied your homestead exemption, obtain evidence that you owned your home on January 1 and used it as your principal residence on that date.
If the chief appraiser denied a homestead exemption for part of the land around your home, show how much land is used as part of your residence.
If the chief appraiser denied an age -65 or older or disabled homestead exemption, or a disabled veteran's exemption, gather evidence to prove you qualify for those exemptions.
Do the appraisal records show an incorrect owner?
Provide records of deeds or deed transfers to prove ownership.
If you acquired the property after January 1, you may protest its value until the ARB approves the appraisal records. The law recognizes both the old and new owners as having an interest in the property's taxes.
Is your property being taxed by the wrong taxing units?
An error of this sort often is simply a clerical error.
For example, the appraisal records may show your property as located in one school district when it actually is in another.
REMEMBER, The Gentry Group is here to help if you believe your property has been appraised incorrectly.

Ectomorph, Endomorph and Mesomorph: How to Eat and Exercise for Your Body Type — Fitness Lab Testing. Assessments.
We previously discussed how the DEXA body composition scan can measure visceral fat content in the android (waist) region. That's important because body shape, or the tendency to accumulate abdominal, or visceral, fat is crucial. It is a key player in a variety of health problems — much more so than subcutaneous fat, the kind you can grasp with your hand.
Health professionals have long used several methods to classify human body types. In Ayurvedic medicine, body types and their linked personalities were defined as Pita, Vata and Kapha. In the 1940s, William H. Sheldon introduced his own theory of body types. Sheldon's system defined the characterized body types as ectomorph, mesomorph, and endomorph.
While not every human body fits into one of these three categories, there are often a few dominant characteristics. Once you know your body's natural shape, you can follow the fitness plan that suits you best. With that said, here are three somatotypes and here's how to train for each body type.
The ectomorph body type is thin and struggles to gain weight, whether it's fat or muscle. They may consume loads of carbohydrates and still maintain the same bodyweight. Ectomorphs also tend to have a lean build with small muscles and long limbs. To gain weight naturally, ectomorphs must consume a higher amount of calories than they are used to.
It is important for an ectomorph to often check body fat percentage. The ectomorph is a classic example of how BMI can be misleading. BMI will often classify the ectomorph as healthy, even if their body fat percentage is unhealthy. That's because BMI does not differentiate between of the proportion of fat vs. muscle in the body. As a result, the ectomorph could easily be in the "skinny fat" category, which tends to carry potential risks in the long term.
Follow a healthy diet that consists of carbohydrates and protein. Increase your weight through strength training and reduce aerobic activities.
The endomorph body type tends to gain weight faster and keep it on. Their natural build is wider than a mesomorph or ectomorph. They may have a larger muscle mass and short limbs. While they can have more muscle than any other body type, they often gain a lot of fat in the process as well.
As a result, just like the ectomorph, the endomorph should also be careful about their body fat percentage.
Follow a balanced diet with High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). Get your heart pumping daily with physical exercise for a healthy cardio burn. If you still cannot see results, you might need to watch your diet.
The mesomorph has a natural tendency to be fit and achieve muscle mass with ease. Does this mean that the mesomorph does not have to do anything to achieve an ideal physique? No – but the mesomorph will be able to get back into shape faster than an endomorph or ectomorph.
Aim for moderate weights and follow regular aerobic exercise. Targeting your desired areas, such as the arms, the chest or the abs, will help you achieve results relatively fast.
If you are unsure about what type you are, you might be somewhere in between. The DEXA body composition scan can help you better understand your body type and where your body tends to accumulate fat.
Once you know your body type or mixture, it becomes much easier to personalize your exercise and diet.

TRANSLATION OF TECHNICAL DOCUMENTS
We are an agency specialising in the translation of technical, scientific, academic, legal, financial and literary documents. By working with a minimum of two translators, we guarantee the editorial quality of our projects.
INTERPRETERS FOR CONFERENCES & EVENTS
Our network of experienced interpreters extends across the whole Iberian Peninsula, covering numerous languages and disciplines and offering consecutive, liaison and simultaneous interpretation services.
NATIVE REVIEW OF STYLE AND GRAMMAR
We collaborate with over forty universities and approximately 200 research groups by reviewing the style and grammar of research works written by non-native researchers, for their subsequent publication in international journals.
Since 2010, facilitating oral and written communication from English into all Iberian languages and from all Iberian languages into English.
English CASTILIAN SPANISH Catalan Basque Galician Valencian Aragonese Asturian PORTUGUESE Mirandese French German ITALIAN Dutch DANISH Greek Polish Swedish Hungarian RUSSIAN Bulgarian Ukrainian Serbian Romanian Turkish ARABIC Czech Hindi Japanese Bengali Korean MANDARIN
In addition to a translation qualification, the assigned Project Manager will have a specific qualification and at least five years' experience in the technical-industrial field relating to the translation. Review will then be carried out by a second translator to detect any potential errors and to compare technical terms. This second review "filter" is absolutely essential for this type of project.
We have a department entirely devoted to this type of translation, led by one of Spain's most renowned legal and financial specialists. This quality guarantee is appreciated by the various law firms and notary public offices included in our client portfolio. Here, the review process carried out by a second translator is also essential.
Scientific translation
We collaborate with some forty universities and approximately 200 research groups to translate academic and scientific studies and articles, for their subsequent publication in international journals. The main translator will be a specialist in the scientific area in question, with a minimum of 10 years' experience. Review is carried out by a second translator.
When presenting documents and certificates before public bodies, whether Spanish or foreign, it is sometimes necessary to provide an official translation carried out by sworn translators bearing the official stamp of the Interior Ministry, for Spain, or an equivalent foreign entity. We also provide these services.
Translating literary texts can be as difficult as, if not more difficult than, writing the original text. Therefore, we only collaborate with translators who have had a minimum number of books published, both translations and originals. For this type of translation, at least two reviewers are necessary to ensure editorial quality of the work.
Over 300 authors have entrusted us with these services. To guarantee publication of the original work in a foreign-language outlet, a thorough review of both grammar and style, carried out by a native reviewer, is necessary. This task is even more complex than the translation itself and the translator-reviewer will have at least ten years' experience.
The interpreter translates a speech in real time, allowing the speaker's words to reach the audience in the target language almost at the same time as the original message is delivered in the source language. To do so, it is necessary to use specific technical equipment (booths, interpreter consoles, receivers, etc.), which may also be provided by englishpanish.
The speech is divided into parts and the interpreter sits next to the speaker with a notepad, in which s/he takes note of what is said. Once the speaker has finished a section of the speech, the interpreter begins to speak. This technique slows down the interpreting process; however, because it does not require technical equipment, it is much more economical than simultaneous interpretation.
Whispered interpretation
In situations in which there is a small audience, the interpreter sits next to certain members of the audience and whispers a simultaneous, summarised interpretation of the speaker's words. In this scenario, most audience members already speak the target language, with the exception of two or three, to whom the service is directed.
Relay interpretation
This is used when there is no interpreter available to translate directly from the source language to the target language but, instead, there are interpreters who can connect these languages using a third one. One interpreter transforms the source-language speech into a speech in the third language; after this, another interpreter transforms the resulting third-language message into a message in the target language.
Liaison interpreting
A conversation with two or more participants and in which the interpreter transmits the individuals' interventions, either consecutively or by whispering. No special technical equipment is necessary and, as is the case with consecutive interpretation, notes can be taken in a notebook, notepad or tablet.
Sight interpretation
The interpreter reads a source-language document out loud in the target language as if it were written in the target language. It is not necessary, of course, to use technical equipment to carry out this type of interpreting; furthermore, given its immediate nature, it is often used assiduously in hospitals and health centres, as well as in courts and public entities.
