Tina Marie Kehler
April 5, 1925 – March 24, 2021
Tina Marie Kehler (née Heinrichs) passed away peacefully at home on March 24, 2021, aged 95. She was predeceased by her husband, Peter Jacob Kehler, her son Peter Eric Kehler, daughter-in-law Miri Kehler (née Falk) and two grandchildren.
She is survived by six children; Fred (Shirley) Kehler, (Joyce Kehler née Harms), Paul (Karen) Kehler, Carla Kehler McBride, Ernie (Christina) Kehler, Linda Kehler, Edward Kehler, as well as 12 grandchildren and many great-grandchildren.
Tina was born in Aberdeen, Saskatchewan on April 5, 1925, the only child of Katharina and Peter Isaac Heinrichs. Her parents immigrated to Canada from the Ukraine in 1922.
Shortly after her birth they moved to Morden, Manitoba, then, in 1930, packed up their Model T and moved to Abbotsford, BC. After homesteading on a small property close to what would later become the Abbotsford Airport, they moved to a property on Marshall Road.
German was Mom's first language, spoken in her immediate family, extended family (the Derksens), and church community. From this heritage, Mom gained a lifelong love of German poetry and folk songs.
She learned English when she went to school. As a young woman, she was an avid reader and enjoyed artistic handicrafts including flower arranging for our home. She played the piano and had a lovely alto singing voice.
The Heinrichs family helped found West Abbotsford Mennonite Church where Tina was baptized. It was there she met Peter Jacob Kehler. They married on April 19, 1951. Within ten years five sons and two daughters were born.
Having Oma and Opa live next door was a huge help for Mom, and the children valued the time their grandparents spent with them. For the children, life on Marshall Road was filled with playing in the woods, building tree forts, helping in the garden, picking raspberries, and doing other chores; while surrounded by dogs, cats, goats, and honeybees.
Peter built a successful electrical, heating and plumbing home-based business, allowing him to be an active part of family life. Mom was kept busy looking after children, baking, canning and gardening. She enjoyed arranging flowers for church, and bouquets of garden flowers regularly graced our table at home. Mom was an excellent seamstress and sewed clothes and blankets for her family and for others.
After her husband's death in 1974 from Hodgkin's lymphoma, Mom found ways to provide for her family. She briefly worked as a phone operator for an answering service, working at night so she could be home with her children during the day.
She joined Widows Helping Others, a group that provided social and emotional support to women who had lost their husbands. Being a dedicated volunteer cancer driver led her to become the Fraser Valley regional co-ordinator for the Cancer Society BC for 10 years. Mom also explored her entrepreneurial interest, buying and selling a few properties; she had a reliable sense of what made a good investment.
In the 1980's Mom purchased and moved to an acreage on Mount Lehman Road. She continued pursuing her gardening and other interests until a series of small strokes in 2006 and a later fall confined her to the house.
Mom was adamant that she didn't want to go into a nursing home, so the family remodeled the house and provided medical equipment necessary for her care. Linda, her daughter and registered nurse, graciously cared for Mom full-time for many years.
Assistance was provided by several devoted caregivers, including Brenda, Dallas and Kelly, and eldest daughter, Carla. Her family doctor, Dr. Iris Liu, respected Mom's wishes by providing home visits and all necessary medical support for many years.
Despite the discomfort of being immobile for the last years of her life, Mom was remarkably patient and content with her situation, enjoying family visits, television, the dogs, and she maintained an interest in the life around her. Classical music, hymns, and German folk songs continued to be her comfort and joy until the very end.
Mom's faith in God was a lifelong internal experience for her. As she became frailer, a gentleness of spirit and thankfulness became very evident in her. In her final days she slipped into a peaceful place between life and death. At times she recognized the presence of her children with a smile or a word or two. On March 24 she entered into the presence of God. She will be greatly missed.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions there will be no public viewing or funeral. A memorial for immediate family will be held when restrictions have been lifted. In lieu of flowers a donation to MCC Canada (mcccanada.ca) would be appreciated.
Online condolences to the family may be made at Wiebe & Jeske www.wiebeandjeskefh.com

What do you get when you pair a scientific researcher with a textile designer? Designers fundamentally shape the way we live, while scientists pervade the very fabric of our lives. Nobel textiles involves a journey into the interface between science and design, a dialogue between leading researchers in both fields.
The languages of science and design may at first glance seem wildly different. Textiles are made with warps, wefts and shuttles on looms with treadles and heddles. Molecular research employs gels, arrays and assays to probe genes, proteins and pathways. Yet closer inspection reveals many conceptual symbioses.
The processes of science and design explore combinations of old and new technologies to create models. Hybrid designs might fuse intelligent textiles and weaving to make a glowing bed for sufferers of seasonal affective disorder. Scientists use nuclear transfer and embryo seeding to create mouse models for genetic disease research.
Science and design require a technical appreciation of form and structure to test and manipulate function and reveal new meaning. Both domains play a role in redefining our relationships with each other and the world around us. Both evoke new meaning, enriching culture.
Design fellows from Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design are liaising with Nobel prize-winning scientists to develop textiles that visualise scientific discovery. The Fabrics of Life projects are jointly funded by the MRC and Epigenome NoE.

Legal confusion over local council elections
The government claims to be seeking legal advice concerning issues relating to the local council elections scheduled for October.
The President's Press Secretary Mohamed Zuhair said there were contradictory definitions mentioned in the decentralisation and local council acts.
For instance, Hulhudhoo and Meedhu in Addu Atoll are considered two different islands and have their own island offices, but both are located on the same land mass. Under the decentralisation act, two islands on the same land or in the same lagoon would be considered one island, Zuhair explained.
"But in the local council elections act island offices are [allocated] for every island. As a result, it is now difficult to determine on which islands councils should be established,'' he said.
Zuhair said the Elections Commission [EC] would try to hold elections on time, regardless to the issues raised.
Dhivehi Rayyithunge Party DRP MP Abdulla Mausoom said DRP has already presented a bill to the parliament to resolve the issue.
"We will amend the law to provide power to the citizens, and we might as well amend the constitution if necessary," said Mausoom. "In the bill it will determine how the local councils should be established in the controversial islands of Addu Atoll and Fuvamulah."
In May, the parliament passed legislation on local council elections. The bill was initially passed in such a way that any person who lived out of their birthplace was required to travel to their home island.
Article 4 of the first legislation passed said voters would have to be present in their island of birth or registered constituency in order to cast their ballots.
President Mohamed Nasheed vetoed the bill, claiming a large number of people from the atolls living in Male' or "40 per cent of the population", would be deprived of the right to vote if he ratified the bill.
President of the Elections Commission Fuad Thaufeeq did not respond to Minivan News at time of press.

Addu says:
Oh my goodness. Is it another opportunity for the government to interpret a part of law ? I hope at least Sawaad will do better and live up to expectations.
Ibrahim says:
The Presidential election of 2013 and 2013 Local Council election will fall on almost same time as Local Councils are elected for 3 years term, and f local elections are held around October this year.
The Election Commission must have hard time to handle the two elections in 2013.

Q: Determining an a priori ranking of what sites a user has most likely visited This is for http://cssfingerprint.com
I have a largish database (~100M rows) of websites. This includes both main domains (both 2LD and 3LD) and particular URLs scraped from those domains (whether hosted there [like most blogs] or only linked from it [like Digg], and with a reference to the host domain).
I also scrape the Alexa top million, Bloglines top 1000, Google pagerank, Technorati top 100, and Quantcast top million rankings. Many domains will have no ranking though, or only a partial set; and nearly all sub-domain URLs have no ranking at all other than Google's 0-10 pagerank (some don't even have that).
I can add any new scrapings necessary, assuming it doesn't require a massive amount of spidering.
I also have a fair amount of information about what sites previous users have visited.
What I need is an algorithm that orders these URLs by how likely a visitor is to have visited that URL without any knowledge of the current visitor. (It can, however, use aggregated information about previous users.)
This question is just about the relatively fixed (or at least aggregated) a priori ranking; there's another question that deals with getting a dynamic ranking.
Given that I have limited resources (both computational and financial), what's the best way for me to rank these sites in order of a priori probability of their having been visited?

A benefit concert on April 20 will raise money for Catholic Charities of Tompkins/Tioga's Immigrant Services Program.
"Our current administration is trying to make it harder for immigrants who are already here and for new immigrants, we should support the immigrants of today in light of what has been happening. We can't just sit idly and let them be disadvantaged," said conductor and coordinator Keehun Nam, a graduate student in his final semester of orchestral conducting at Ithaca College.
Nam said he was motivated to organize the benefit concert because he was an immigrant himself. Since he had first-hand experience with the challenges faced by immigrants, he wanted to extend a helping hand to alleviate their hardships.
"My experience was very positive, but even so it was not without challenges … I can't imagine how much more difficult it is for refugees of war-torn countries to come here involuntarily without a good job set up," he told The Sun.
Nam acknowledged that he was fortunate that his parents had good jobs and they lived in a decent community when his family immigrated to Minnesota from South Korea in 2001. Even so, he said it took him at least four years to adjust and said it took his parents longer to learn the new language and adapt to the new culture.
All the money raised from this concert will go towards the Catholic Charities of Tompkins/Tioga to help its Immigrant Services Program, according to Nam.
CCTT has been approved to bring up to 50 refugees to Ithaca from war-torn or unsafe countries, The Sun previously reported. The Immigrant Services Program at CCTT helps immigrants "attain family unity, economic independence and social integration" and assists "undocumented battered immigrant women and children gain legal status," according to the program's website.
Nam said he decided to donate the proceeds to this program after reading news stories online about how it had successfully relocated families of refugees in the past, saying that he believed he could trust the organization to make a real and tangible impact.
The concert will feature 10 string performance major students and two vocalists from Ithaca College, according to Nam. It will take place at the Immaculate Conception Church located at 113 N Geneva St on Friday, April 20 at 7 p.m.

Roett moves up surfing ranks - by Barbados Today May 4, 2017
Chelsea Roett has improved her world international ranking to a personal best 42nd in the World Surf League Women's Qualifying Series, after an impressive fifth place finish at the recently concluded WSL WQS 3,000 Barbados Surf Pro contest held at the Drill Hall Beach.
Roett was previously ranked at 78th in the world.
Chelsea Roett
"I was really happy to have made it to the quarterfinals and even happier to have cracked into the top 50 in the World Surf League, Women's Qualifying Series. Coming up against a number of previous World Tour surfers gave me a great opportunity to push my surfing to the limit. With the high level of surfers attending this event I knew it was going to be a challenge, but I was thrilled to keep making heat after heat and surf my way into the quarterfinals," Roett said.
She added: "It was great having a WSL QS contest of this high level here in Barbados and being able to surf on my home turf made it extra special. I also got a chance to host some of my international friends and it was great showing them all around Barbados. They all had such a fantastic time that they are already planning on returning for next year's Barbados Surf Pro contest."
Roett will be traveling to California in June and then over to her next contest, which will be the WSL WQS 6,000 in Mexico and then immediately following that she will be traveling to El Salvador for another WSL WQS 6,000.
"I am training hard and pushing my surfing as I am looking to better my ranking of 42nd and hoping to make the top 25 by the end of these next two contests," she said.

Bob Chapman is the Chairman and CEO of Barry-Wehmiller, a manufacturing company, and engineering consulting firm. As the leader of a the struggling business his dad left him, with hard work and great focus. Bob Chapman has seen great financial success in business and has managed to change the platform for leadership.
Chapman explains in his new book "Everybody Matters" that he imagines a world full of caring work environments in which people can bring the best out of each other with trust, celebration, communication, respect and responsible freedom. While Chapman adapted his leadership into True Human Leadership, his habits and leadership qualities began by putting people first and making sure his employees went home with something more than just a paycheck. He wanted them to go home fulfilled and knowing that they always have the opportunity to speak up, learn, and grow in his business.
The thing that makes Chapman a great leader is that he understands that his business needs to grow financially, but most importantly, he see's the responsibility he has on his employees to give them an unlimited amount of opportunities.
Chapman's true colors were shown in 2008 when Barry-Wehmiller was hit extremely hard during the recession. They lost nearly 30% percent of their orders overnight and started to discuss layoffs - as most manufacturing companies would do. Although it may seem like the easiest thing to do, and the quickest fix to their major problem, Bob Chapman exercised his True Human Leadership and refused to talk about layoffs.
Bob and his leadership council came up with a furlough program which implemented that every employee, no matter the title, had to take four weeks of unpaid vacation throughout the year. Bob believed that it was better that everyone should suffer a little than any one person suffer a lot. When the message went throughout his company, moral was boosted and people started trading vacation days for work days for those who could afford it. They saved 20 million dollars and grew as a company through the recession.
"A true leader would sacrifice the numbers to save the people, not sacrifice the people to save the numbers."
If that's the case, Bob Chapman is a True Leader.

Q: Selecting .class elements within parent form I have two FORMs with .ERROR class within both. How can I select .ERROR in THIS form.
Something along the lines of:

<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

    <input type="button" class="SUBMIT">
</form>

A: Catching click events on form submit buttons is usually not very reliable as there are other events that can submit the form. Instead, catch the submit event, eg
+function($) {
    $(document).on('submit', 'form', function(e) {

        var form = $(this),
            error = form.find('.ERROR');
        if (error.is(':visible')) {
            alert("IT'S VISIBLE");
            return false;
        }
        return true;

In this week's Throwback Sundays article, we recommend six watches for you to bring on your next short retreat!
December is always the time when people will take the opportunity to go for a short getaway. After all, this is the period when the children get their school holidays, and many adults receive their bonuses and clearing their leave.
Whenever a watch collector goes overseas, he or she will probably face the difficulty of selecting a piece from their collection. While some might solve the conundrum by bringing along a few watches, realistically it might not be practical for the some. So, to solve the problem, we have selected six watches that we reckon are suitable for a short getaway. These watches should be pretty sturdy, versatile, and well-presentable.
The new Astron GPS, featuring the upgraded 8X22 movement.
We begin the article with the Seiko Astron GPS Solar Worldime, also widely touted as the world's first solar power GPS watch in 2012.
The Astron collection had an interesting history, most notably as the world's first quartz watch in 1969. The Caliber 35 was announced in Tokyo during Christmas Day that year, and it boast a far superior accuracy of +/- 5 seconds per month. Moving forward, in 2012, the collection had outdone itself again. This time, they had produced a timepiece that automatically adjusts to the precise local time anywhere on Earth, utilizing GPS technology.
In Baselworld 2016, the Japanese watch manufacturer updated the Astron collection with the new 8X22 movement. It is noticeably slimmer, while achieving the same performance as its predecessors. It is available in seven different designs, with prices expected to be around ¥180,000 before taxes in Japan.
The new Rolex Explorer, featuring some upgrades and subtle facelifts.
When it comes to reliability and robustness, few watch manufacturers come close to Rolex. After all, Rolex are known for their tool watches, which have been used for extreme activities such as diving and mount climbing. The Explorer, in fact, is linked to the latter. When Sir Edmund Hillary (and Tenzing Norgay) scaled Mount Everest in 1953. They were sponsored by both Rolex and Smith, and while Sir Hillary wore his Rolex that day, Tenzing wore his Rolex.
Moving forward, Rolex had updated the Explorer most recently in 2016. The latest model includes an improved movement, as well as subtle changes in terms of its aesthetics. It is still as robust, with the 904L Stainless Steel case and doubly certified by COSC and Rolex Superlative Chronometer. The Superlative Chronometer standards specifies a more stringent +2/-2 second a day timing result, performed after the movement is cased.
Priced at S$8,770, the Explorer is an excellent choice as a companion for any short getaways. It is extremely versatile, and we feel that its solid build quality comes as a plus point, especially if one is partaking any adventures or activities during the trip.
The Bremont Regatta OTUSA in black dial. This is one of the latest creations from the British-based watchmaker.
Bremont is a British-based watchmaker, in which the roots of the watch manufacturer is in aviation, founded by two brothers. However, that is not the only thing that the English brothers are interested in. Together with their passion in sailing, they have partnered with both the America's Cup and Oracle Team USA, which led to the creation of the Bremont Regatta OTUSA timepiece.
The main highlight of this timepiece is perhaps the regatta function, in which it is used to help the skipper to time his manoeuvres in a yacht race. This is combined together with the chronograph functions. Although it may not be useful for non sailors, but it is certainly an interesting complication and one which resulted in an aesthetically pleasing watch.
The 43mm timepiece is available in satin titanium case, or the more luxurious rose gold version. They are available in white or black dial, and it is fitted with the COSC-certified Valjoux 7750 movement. It retails at S$9,900, and we reckon this is a excellent timepiece for someone who wants a watch that is a tad different from the usual selections.
The Breitling Emergency II. A watch that one should have, if they are out for an adventure.
Following the Explorer, we have yet another timepiece from another watchmaker that is synonymous with adventures: the Breitling Emergency II.
The Breitling Emergency is an interesting collection, and one that shot to fame when it was launched back in 1995. The main highlight of the timepiece, as many will know, is its radio function. The Emergency II is now capable of simultaneously transmitting distress signals to the 406 MHz frequency intended for satellites, and a second analog signal transmitting on the 121.5 MHz homing and rescue frequency. It is a cool and yet functional feature that no other watch manufacturers can boast.
The watch is currently available in many different variants, each with a unique combination of dial and strap colours. The super quartz timepiece retails at S$21,000. It is certainly a cool watch to own, and one that is functional for anyone who is keen on explorations and adventures.
In the IWC line-up, the Aquatimer is often overshadowed by its siblings – mainly the Pilot and Portugieser collection. However, the divers' collection, which was revamped in 2014, offers collectors a rather different side of IWC.
There are several variants of the Aquatimer collection, ranging from the basic "date-only" timepiece, to the highly complicated Digital Perpetual Calendar. Each of them have their unique characteristics, although they are generally solid in appearance. Amongst the different variants, our choice of timepiece for the short retreat is the Automatic 2000. We particularly like the way it looks, and we reckon it appears very robust in its build as well. It is also very clean and legible, which is an additional plus point.
With a retail price of S$13,900, we will say that this is a wonderful addition to any watch collection. It is a comfortable watch to wear, and we reckon that the well-designed timepiece looks fashionable and complements pretty nicely with casual wear.
Finally, we round up the article with one of our favourite watches this year. Cue the Vacheron Constantin Overseas.
The new Overseas aims to compete against the other two luxury sports watches, which are Patek Philippe's Nautilus and Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak. The new watch, we believe, has the potential to unsettle their rivals. It features a nicely finished in-house automatic movement, which boasts a power reserve of around 60 hours. But the brilliance does not end there. We also like the looks of the timepiece, as well as its new ingenious quick strap change mechanism. The overall combination of the different aspects of the watch is simply amazing, and it had certainly won over our hearts.
In terms of pricing, the Overseas retails at S$30,800. It is actually quite decent, considering that you can think of it as getting three watches for the price of one! But that's not all. We think that what makes this watch so special is the way it looks, as well as the great attention to detail. In short, the Overseas is a game-changer, and it definitely gives its counterparts from the "Holy Trinity" a run for their money.
When it comes to selecting watches to wear for a short retreat, the obvious choices are watches that are both comfortable and less ostentatious. This means that we can pretty much rule out watches that are either cased in gold, or those that are very heavy in nature (especially large steel watches with bracelets).
In our selections today, most of the timepieces are robustly built, and they are mostly fitted with a rubber strap for comfort. We think that it is important for one to select a robust timepiece as well, considering that some individuals tend to partake on adventures or extreme sports during their holidays.
Another important point to note is the destination. It is generally understood that in certain places, it is not wise to wear a high profile timepiece such as a Rolex. Hence, a Seiko will be an ideal timepiece for such a situation. However, if security is not much of an issue, then by all means go ahead and wear something that suits one's preferences.
So, do you agree with the watches that we have selected today? What are some of the watches that you'll bring along for a short getaway? Let us know in the comments section below!

In the final round of "Family Feud," it's up to two of the contestants to guess answers that with will have point values total up to 200 points. If they do this, they win the money.
So, if the first person that goes gets 182 of those 200 points, you would think it would be SOOOO easy for the next person to get those remaining 18 points.
However, when the first person takes all the top answers, it makes it hard for the next person to accomplish that.
While you definitely have to feel bad for this girl, you must also laugh at the same time.

Shots fired at Illinois mosque
Members of a suburban mosque say someone took several shots with an air rifle last night at the building's outer wall in Morton Grove.
According to the Council on American-Islamic Relations, two air rifle shots were fired at the outer brick wall of the Muslim Education Center mosque, 8613 Menard Ave., damaging it.
A guard was working security at the center, where services were underway for Ramadan, when he heard a projectile hit the outside wall of the building at 9:20 p.m., said Morton Grove police Chief Mark Erickson.
No one was hurt and no one inside the center was near a window when the pellet-gun shooting happened, said the chief. "He was walking around outside and he heard this bang and he notified the police," Erickson said of the guard.
When officers got there, the guard told police that windows at the center have been damaged in the past, but "a number of them" were never reported to authorities.
"Due to the sensitive nature of the incident and with the previous criminal damage there, we contacted the Cook County state's attorney's office," the chief said.
"This is obviously an alarming situation that all parties are taking very seriously," said CAIR-Chicago Executive Director Ahmed Rehab in the statement. According to Rehab, the projectiles reportedly came within inches of the head of the security guard on duty.

When it comes to men's wedding rings, the traditional plain gold band is being given a run for its money. Men are using their rings as a way to display their personal style–some men are even sporting engagement rings prior to their nuptials! Wedding bands often feature rugged, masculine touches, such as wood inlays or dark, cool metals. But for those men looking for something truly out of this world, there's the stellar look of meteorite.
At Brilliance, our meteorite rings include pieces of genuine Gibeon Meteorite, an iron-nickel meteorite that is believed to be around four billion years old. This grey metal has a space-age, modern look, but it can easily suit a classic design for a unique wedding band he'll love to wear. Take a look and you'll see that there really is a meteorite wedding band for every style.
He only has five shirts, and maybe two pairs of pants. His apartment is sparsely decorated – clean lines, maybe a photo or two. His look may be classy and modern, but it's simple above all else. This is just the type of man who will love the clean, cool look of a meteorite ring with zirconium. The thin black outline frames the meteorite center inlay, making the grey metal stand out. This ring style comes in either a flat shape (pictured), or a rounded shape for a more classic look. But no matter which one he chooses, the simple look of this meteorite ring will certainly suit his clean style.
We all know that guy who is an old soul at heart. He gets along great with your parents and your grandparents. He prefers a quiet night in to an evening at the club. And when it comes to his style, he prefers the styles of yesteryear (you've seen him wear a jacket with elbow patches – unironically). This man's wedding ring needs to have an antique feel coupled with the style of the modern age. And this meteorite ring has exactly that: The light cobalt band is less intense than a darker metal, but the black grooves lining the meteorite inlay provide a sleek, aged look.
This man knows about all of the hottest spots in town before anyone else you know. He knows all of the up-and-coming bands, the coolest new restaurants, even the latest fashion trends, and he's constantly helping his friends keep up with the times. Shouldn't his wedding ring be a step ahead too? The Brilliance meteorite collection has a number of striking, original designs, from the segmented meteorite set in cobalt (pictured) to this square beveled ring. Both these designs feature that unforgettable meteorite inlay set in cobalt for a shining, silvery look. And no matter which one he chooses, these incredible rings will have people stopping him on the street to admire them. Who knows? He may just start a new trend.
He'd rather spend time fishing than doing anything else. He practically owns every item from the local camping store. And when it comes to his style, he's rugged and rough around the edges. Make sure his wedding ring sports that same rough feel with this meteorite ring set in sandblasted titanium. The sandblasting technique makes this particular ring a little different than the others we've seen so far: rather than a silvery-grey meteorite, this inlay is a beautiful black color. The sandblasting also diminishes the shine around the titanium, which is perfect for a guy who likes the rugged beauty of the outdoors.
He is the life of every party. He works hard and plays harder. His confidence and bright smile never seem to dim! This is the man who likes a little pizzaz in his style and is unafraid to take some fashion risks. Why not seal your vows with a gorgeous ring, featuring a rose gold base, meteorite inlay, and a princess cut diamond? The grooves along the edges of the ring give it a classy, modern look, while the unique features of the ring make it something truly special – perfect for the man who is most special to you.
Meteorite rings are unique and show off your husband-to-be's personality. Check out other meteorite rings and more at Brilliance.com.

Go-ahead for first wind farm in congested south-east
Building permission has been granted for construction of the first wind farm in the congested south-east of England. Energy minister Malcolm Wicks granted consent for Npower renewables' 78 MW project at Little Cheyne Court on Walland Marsh in Kent. The minister announced his decision last month at the British Wind Energy Association conference in Cardiff. The consent comes after a public inquiry was held into the plans last year. The inquiry concluded that the 26-turbine project is consistent with government policies on energy and environment. Npower's Martin Marais claims the project, which has been five years in development, commands wide support locally. Unusual for any wind farm project in Britain, letters in support outnumbered letters of objection during the planning phase. The wind farm will be located in the constituency of former Conservative party leader Michael Howard, who gave evidence against the project at the public inquiry.

Haredi Orthodox mother of five may have to give up Olympic dream over Shabbat
By Marcy Oster
Marathon runner Beatie Deutsch. (Beatie Deutsch/Instagram)
(JTA) A haredi Orthodox mother of five may have to give up her dream of running in the marathon at the 2020 Olympics after the race was scheduled for a Saturday.
"I felt like I was punched in the stomach this morning," Beatie Deutsch, 29, wrote in a post on Facebook.
According to the post, when Deutsch first decided to pursue her Olympic goal nearly a year ago, the first thing she did was check to make sure she would be able to participate. She was relieved to learn that the marathon was set for the last Sunday of the games.
The women's marathon was rescheduled after Tokyo Olympics organizers decided to relocate the race, news reports said.
Deutsch, the winner of the 2018 Jerusalem Marathon, wrote that she had skipped the World Championships and several other competitions because they were held on Shabbat. Asked recently about the challenges she faces as a haredi female runner, Deutsch said there really weren't any and that running was "very compatible with my religious lifestyle."
"Suddenly things got real very quickly," Deutsch, who ran the Tel Aviv Marathon in 2017 while seven months pregnant, wrote in her post. "Because I've been pretty public about my Olympic dream … and I've invested a whole lot to get myself there … and what if, what if after all that I make it and I can't even run?!"
But Deutsch said she is not giving up.
"I will continue to train and push myself to the best of my ability to try and qualify," she said. "Regardless of whether the race is switched or not, I'm not letting go yet. I am a fighter, I don't give up easily and I will do whatever I can to get the Olympic marathon date changed."
Deutsch, who moved to Israel from New Jersey in 2009, is known for running in a skirt, sleeves that fall below her elbow and a headscarf.
In May, Deutsch was the top female finisher in a 13-mile half-marathon race in Riga, Latvia, reportedly becoming the first haredi woman to win an international athletic competition.
She won the Tiberias Marathon in January in a time of 2 hours, 42 minutes, 18 seconds — the fifth best for a woman in Israeli history but short of the tougher new standard of 2:29:30 needed to qualify for the Olympics. Only 80 women will qualify for the games, with a cap of three per country.
"I may not make it to the Olympics," she wrote. "I may not make the standard or I may not be able to run a race that is on Shabbat. But one thing I do know is that I will continue to proudly represent what it means to be an Orthodox Jewish women and professional runner for Israel."

Hosted by Jane Powell, with Cy Coleman, Barbara Cook (ñAinÍt Necessarily Soî and ñVanilla Ice Creamî), Nathan Lane (ñDonÍt Monkey With Broadwayî and ñEverythingÍs Coming Up Rosesî)), Lou Diamond Phillips (ñI Wonder What The King Is Doing Tonightî and ñOne Night In Bangkokî), Tommy Tune (ñIÍm Dancing And I CanÍt Be Bothered Nowî), Stephen Bogardus (ñShe Loves Meî), Meg Brussart (ñBaubles, Bangles, and Beadsî and ñStranger In Paradiseî), Randy Graff, Timothy Hugh (ñBring Him Homeî), Judy Kaye, Natalie Torro (ñMemoryî-a Spanish/Caribbean version), Lillias White (ñThe Oldest Professionî), Karen Ziemba, and others. A concert to benefit Variety, The ChildrenÍs Charity, and The National Alliance For Excellence. One night only concert celebrating the musicals of Broadway, recorded at Carnegie Hall. Filmed with multiple cameras. (This concert was financed by a Japanese business man named Toshu Fukami, with the proceeds from the ticket sales going to charity. He sings ñSome Enchanted Eveningî (badly, and phonetically-he probably doesnÍt speak English) with Jane Powell, and it seems like this was the true motivation for the concert-even this video was produced by his company. Other than this jarring out of place performance, the concert is great).

Ten years ago, a lacklustre disco marked the end of a school career. Now US-style proms are the norm, and according to research, 95% of UK schools are holding them. With an average spend of £244 on achieving the perfect look, brands are keen to get in on the act.

Many adolescents entering substance abuse treatment have coexisting mental health problems and are criminally involved. Examination of the complexities of substance use, mental health, and criminal justice involvement along with changes in these issues following treatment is needed. This study includes 941 males and 266 females enrolled in seven drug treatment programs located in geographically diverse areas of the United States. Comparisons between males and females at treatment entry and three, six, 12 and 30 months later were examined with regard to substance use, mental health, and criminal justice involvement. Results indicate that females showed significantly greater severity in substance use, problems associated with use, and mental health related variables at intake while males had significantly more days on probation/parole. With respect to change over time, the rate of change in mental health and days on probation/parole differed between the sexes. Results indicate that while rate of change is different for males and females on most variables, there was positive change following treatment for both groups with regard to substance use, mental health, and probation/parole status. The high severity levels of females at intake calls for gender-specific outreach and identification along with gender-specific treatments.

The shows are in crystal clear picture quality and not like they were when DVD's were first made and VHS's also, these are so nice and remastered to perfection and clearer than what you will see on tv. I wont even watch I Love Lucy on the television anymore because the DVD's are so much clearer that it doesn't look right to watch it a little on tv.


DRESS CODE We believe that appropriate dress and grooming contribute to a productive learning environment. Students are expected to give proper attention to personal cleanliness and to wear clothes that comply with each school's adopted dress code. Students must be in compliance with the Dress and Grooming Code (AR 5132), as established by the Board of Trustees.
The Lemoore Union Elementary School District requires that: Students attending school must be clean. All clothing must fit, shall be neat, clean, and acceptable in repair and appearance and shall be worn within the bounds of decency and good taste as appropriate for school. Appropriate undergarments that provide proper coverage shall be worn. Clothes shall be sufficient to conceal undergarments at all times.
1. Shorts/Skirts/Pants: Oversized, baggy or saggy clothing is prohibited. Bottoms with bibs are not permitted for students in grades 4 through 8. Shorts are to be hemmed and not form fitting. Skirts or shorts shorter than mid‐thigh are prohibited. Leggings will be allowed if over garment is no shorter than mid‐ thigh. Pants cannot exceed 4 inches wider than the leg when measured out from the kneecap of the straightened leg. Pants and shorts must fit and be worn at the natural waist. The bottom of the pant leg may not be frayed or drag on the ground. Pants must be hemmed and not stapled, pinned, or taped.
2. Shirts: All blouses and shirts, except for authorized school spirit shirts, must have a collar or turtleneck and be properly buttoned. "Henley" style shirts are not permitted. Oversized shirts that present a safety concern are not acceptable. All blouses and shirts must be clean and neat. See‐through or fishnet fabrics, halter tops, off‐the‐shoulder or low‐cut tops, bare midriffs are prohibited.
3. Jewelry/Personal Items: Piercings may only be worn in the ears. Personal items, clothing, jewelry, backpacks, binders, gym bags, water bottles, etc., shall be free of writing, pictures or any other insignia which are crude, vulgar, profane or sexually suggestive, which bear drug, alcohol or tobacco company advertising, promotions and likenesses, which display gang symbols, or which advocate racial, ethnic or religious prejudice. Clothing or other items that materially interfere with school work, create disorder or disrupt the educational process are not allowed. Also prohibited are jewelry items that may potentially cause injury, sunglasses (exceptions include medical reasons), and other decorations, ornaments and accessories not appropriate for elementary or middle school.
4. Clothing/Apparel: Any clothing or apparel that a student or group of students wear to identify themselves for the purpose of harassing, threatening, or intimidating others will not be allowed. Military, paramilitary, or camouflage attire will not be permitted. No tattoos may be showing at any time.
5. Hats: Hats, caps, and other head coverings shall not be worn in class. Students may wear sun‐protective clothing, including hats that must have a 360° sun‐protecting brim of no more than 2 inches. However, knit caps may be worn outside of school buildings during cold or inclement weather.
6. Shoes: Shoes must be worn at all times. Sandals must have heel straps. Backless shoes, open sandals, high‐heeled shoes, slipper‐type shoes and thongs are hazardous on the school playground and are not appropriate for school. No hard‐toed or steel‐ toed shoes/boots will be allowed. No high top, laced up, combat, or military style boots will be allowed.
7. Hair: Hair must be clean and show evidence of having been neatly groomed for school. No designs shaved (ex. lines, numbers, shapes, etc.) or colored into the head are allowed. Hair may not be sprayed by any coloring that would drip when wet. Hair that causes undue attention is not acceptable. Beards are not allowed.
8. Athletic Wear: Gym shorts, "sweat pants", and "athletic style" pants may not be worn in classes other than physical education. "Sweat pants" can be worn by students in grades Kindergarten through 3. The principal at each school shall ensure that authorized school spirit shirts are viewpoint neutral and content neutral.
The principal and staff at each school may establish reasonable dress and grooming regulations for times when students are engaged in extracurricular or other special school activities.
Coaches and teacher may impose more stringent dress requirements to accommodate the special needs of certain sports and/or classes. Bona fide religious or philosophical objections, or medical reasons, when verified, may be grounds for an exemption to a specific portion of the Dress and Grooming Policy. A written request for an exemption from enforcement of a specified portion of Dress Code Policy must be submitted to the school principal.


With the Chinese name Ding Weiliang, William Alexander Parsons Martin (1827-1916) was a significant figure in the last years of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Born in a Presbyterian family in Indiana, Martin made his mind to study theology and came to China as a missionary in the 1850s. Because of cultural and linguistic obstacles in spreading Christianity, he started to learn Chinese and read through Chinese classics such as Shangshu, The Analects, Book of Changes, and Book of Songs, and thus became an old China hand.
I became an economic refugee to China just before the fall of Lehman Brothers on September 15, 2008. I responded to a "Teach ESL in China" posting on Craig's List and shortly thereafter I was confronted with 900 seventh graders in 21 batches of 45-60 students each week at Zhengzhou Foreign Language School. My whole intellectual edifice regarding Mainland China revolved around Hop Sing in Bonanza reruns, until I read Jung Chan's first two books, Mao and Wild Swan.
By 2015 I was no longer dependent on teaching English as a Second Language for my daily bread and chose economic immigrant status in Antalya, Turkey. Tucked away in our shipment of forty boxes from China was a paperback version of Jung Chan's third book Empress Dowager Cixi: The Concubine Who Launched Modern China. After polishing off two biographies of Ataturk and 900 pages of the Ottoman Empire, I opened the Empress Dowager Cixi to discover the history of teaching ESL in China.
Due to his deep and broad knowledge of Chinese culture, W.A.P. Martin was recommended in 1865 by Anson Burlingame (Pu Anchen), the American diplomatic minister to China, and Thomas F. Wade (Wei Tuoma), the British diplomat, as the third president (Zongjiaoxi) of Jingshi Tongwenguan(Tungwen College, or the School of Combined Learning), the first government school for teaching Western languages in late Qing Dynasty.
Jung Chan makes history informative, insightful, intriguing and easily digestible, much like Doris Kearnes Goodwin's Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln. Of course, I doubt without my ESL experience, I would ever have touched Mao, Wild Swan and Cixi with a ten foot reading glass past my Hop Sing view of the world.

AFJ'S TOP POPS WE WANT TO SEE AUGUST 2015!
It's that time already where another month has gone by and the Junkies demand more POPS! I was surprised at just how quickly I thought of these ten new entries to FUNKO for POP! VINYLS possibilities and that just chalks it up to these simple collectibles popularity and collectability. It never ends! For every five TV or movie titles I think of, there are another fifteen! And that's without even drinking! So sit back and take a look at AFJ's AUGUST 2015 picks for TOP POPS WE WANT TO SEE!!
Hannibal, "Howlin' Mad" Murdoch, "B.A" Baracus & Face-man. Not much more to say. Although the black van with red stripe would be pretty dope to throw in there with Hannibal popping out the top maybe with some voice action saying, "I love it when a plan comes together!"
This one is an easy call for the late 70's sitcom that made John Travolta a superstar but also made the word "Sweathog" a household name. Up your nose with a rubber hose! Hairy Canary!
In the 80's, Michael J. Fox was King. Hit sitcom, hit movies--the guy could do it all. Even play basketball with mad skills with the rock on the court. Okay maybe that was a stunt double but it was still damn cool. I remember the wolf transformation scaring the hell out of me in the theater (hey, I was 8) but TEEN WOLF became one of my all time go to 80's videotapes. Time for some POPS! And you gotta include STILES!!
The action movie that redefined action movies and made Bruce Willis a household name. Along with MOONLIGHT, ouch. Anyway, one cop, one skyscraper, a team of terrorists armed to the teeth--what could go wrong? Only the greatest action movie in action movie history! We need John McClane, Hans Gruber, and a Chase Sgt. Al Powell. Maybe a six pack of the European terrorists, who knows!
WOMP-BOP-A-LOO-BOP-A-WOP-BAM-BOOM! Everybody's favorite movie to sing along to is still as relevant as ever especially with its 40th Anniversary coming up, POPS are essential to celebrate the milestone. Zuko, Sandy, Kenickie, Rizzo and the gang are all waiting to be POP ready as fast as Grease Lightning. Ooo, a Grease Lightning POP car would be cool too!
The 1985 cult classic needs one POP character to be made: FLETCH. That is all. Just FLETCH. And maybe one Variant FLETCH of one of his disguises, preferably the one where he's roller skating on the beach. FLETCH, its a must POP.
Perhaps the greatest comedy of the 70's needs the POP treatment already. The guys from Delta Chi deserve it after generations of showing us how to do college right. There are too many characters to list but ANIMAL HOUSE is must for POP-hood. Plus the DEATHMOBILE!!
The little bar in Boston where everybody knows their name lasted for a ridiculous 271 episodes on NBC. Led by Sammy "Mayday" Malone, Norm, Cliff, Woody and the rest of the gang, CHEERS became NBC's first "MUST SEE TV" sitcom and went out with a bang. So where are the POPS?
Although it had a solid reboot this summer starring Ed Helms and Christina Applegate, there is nothing that can ever replace the original. The 1983 trip to Walley World from Chicago was the most hilarious road trip that we will ever see on film. That means its time for the POP treatment.

Higher antibiotic doses might overcome drug resistance, but may strengthen certain bacteria
Antimicrobial resistance has been predicted to cause 10 million deaths annually by 2050.
Agence France-Presse May 12, 2021 13:09:52 IST
With antibiotic-resistant superbugs predicted to kill more people globally than cancer by mid-century, more research was needed into how higher doses impact the long-term evolution of bacteria.
Using higher doses of antibiotics in a bid to tackle the growing problem of drug resistance may end up strengthening certain bacteria, according to research released on Wednesday that highlights a previously unthought-of risk. Antimicrobial resistance has been labelled by the United Nations as "one of the greatest threats we face as a global community" and is predicted to cause 10 million deaths annually by 2050. Previous research has shown that inflicting higher antibiotic doses on bacteria can slow its ability to develop resistance, yet little attention has been paid to how those higher doses impact the overall health of microbes.
A team of Britain- and Europe-based researchers looked at how populations of E. coli reacted to varying concentrations of three common antibiotics.
They found that while higher antibiotic doses slowed the rate at which the bacteria developed resistance, they also gave rise to bacteria with "higher overall fitness" — meaning it had a higher rate of reproduction.
"We consider growth rate as a proxy for fitness, under the assumption that a strain that grows faster is more likely to take over the population and become dominant," lead author Mato Lagator, from the University of Manchester's School of Biological Sciences, told AFP.
The team behind the research, published in the journal Royal Society Biology Letters, said it showed how higher antibiotic doses presented a "dilemma" and could result in ultimately more-resistant bacteria.
"Considering the fitness of the evolved strains adds another dimension to the problem of optimal antibiotic dosing," they wrote.
Trade-offs
Several studies in recent years have warned of the risks of antibiotic over-prescription in medicine and over-use in livestock rearing, with the US Center for Disease Control estimating that one in three prescriptions for antibiotics are unnecessary.
"New drugs are typically developed with one dominant focus — how well they get rid of the infection," said Lagator.
"What is rarely considered is the likelihood of target bacteria evolving resistance to those drugs, as well as the fitness of the resistant strains that are likely to emerge."
With antibiotic-resistant superbugs predicted to kill more people globally than cancer by mid-century, Lagator said that more research was needed into how higher doses impact the long-term evolution of bacteria.
"Personally, I would say that the focus on immediate rewards — that drug effectiveness increases at higher doses — without understanding long term consequences can cause problems," he said.
"There are trade-offs here that are complex and need further examination. Even in our fairly simple study, we found that resistance does emerge more slowly at higher doses, but when it does, those strains are in general better off."
