Q: Find values of nested hash matching a specific key I've created a hash of hashes in perl, where this is an example of what the hash ends up looking like:
my %grades;
$grades{"Foo Bar"}{Mathematics}   = 97;
$grades{"Foo Bar"}{Literature}    = 67;
$grades{"Peti Bar"}{Literature}   = 88;
$grades{"Peti Bar"}{Mathematics}  = 82;
$grades{"Peti Bar"}{Art}          = 99;

and to print the entire hash, I'm using:
foreach my $name (sort keys %grades) {
    foreach my $subject (keys %{ $grades{$name} }) {
        print "$name, $subject: $grades{$name}{$subject}\n";
    }
}

I need to print just the inner hash referring to "Peti Bar" and find the highest value, so theoretically, I should just parse through Peti Bar, Literature; Peti Bar, Mathematics; and Peti Bar, Art and end up returning Art, since it has the highest value.
Is there a way to do this or do I need to parse through the entire 2d hash?

A: You don't need to parse through the first level if you know the key that you're interested. Just leave out the first loop and access it directly. To get the highest value, you have to look at each subject once.
Keep track of the highest value and the key that goes with it, and then print.
my $max_value = 0;
my $max_key;
foreach my $subject (keys %{ $grades{'Peti Bar'} }) {
    if ($grades{'Peti Bar'}{$subject} > $max_value){
        $max_value = $grades{'Peti Bar'}{$subject};
        $max_key = $subject;
    }
}
print $max_key;

This will output
Art

An alternative implementation with sort would look like this:
print +(
    sort { $grades{'Peti Bar'}{$b} <=> $grades{'Peti Bar'}{$a} }
        keys %{ $grades{'Peti Bar'} }
)[0];

The + in +( ... ) tells Perl that the parenthesis () are not meant for the function call to print, but to construct a list. The sort sorts on the keys, descending, because it has $b first. It returns a list, and we take the first value (index 0).
Note that this is more expensive than the first implementation, and not necessarily more concise. Unless you're building a one-liner or your ; is broken I wouldn't recommend the second solution.

A: This is trivial using the List::UtilsBy module
The code is made clearer by extracting a reference to the inner hash that we're interested in. The max_by is called to return the keys of that hash that has the maximum value
use strict;
use warnings 'all';
use feature 'say';

use List::UtilsBy 'max_by';

my %grades = (
    'Foo Bar'  => { Literature => 67, Mathematics => 97 },
    'Peti Bar' => { Literature => 88, Mathematics => 82, Art => 99 },
);

my $pb_grades = $grades{'Peti Bar'};

say max_by { $pb_grades->{$_} } keys %$pb_grades;

output
Art

A: As a Perl beginner I would use the List::Util core module:
use 5.014;
use List::Util 'reduce';
my $k='Peti Bar';
say reduce { $grades{$k}{$a} > $grades{$k}{$b} ? $a : $b } keys %{$grades{$k}};

How secure are Android devices? Google just issued its 2018 Android Security Report, which is focused on what it calls the broadest statistic for measuring device hygiene: how frequently a full-device scan detects Potentially Harmful Applications (PHAs). Malware rates and the number of PHAs dropped to record low levels even as the number of apps for the Android operating system continues to grow.

We know how the search engines work!
Your search engine optimization strategy can be divided into two different categories: on-page SEO and off-page SEO. Both are crucial to the success of an SEO campaign, but they are on completely different sides of the fence when it comes to improving your search engine ranking. To understand the difference between the two, one must understand, at a basic level, how search engine algorithms work. Let's break it down.
PS: Paying Google to show ads is NOT search engine optimization, it's marketing.
It involves optimizing different parts of your website that affect your search engine ranking. These are things you control and can change on your own website. Here are the main factors that are included.
Enter your targeted keywords in the title tags on each page of your website. There are many great tips on writing effective title tags.
Headlines are usually the biggest words on the page, and so the search engines give a little extra weight to your other headlines. It's a good idea to work with your keywords in the headlines of each webpage, but make sure you correctly reflect the page content.
Add keywords to your URLs if possible. But do not change all your current URLs just so that they have keywords in them. You should not change old URLs unless you plan to redirect your old to your new ones. Contact a professional SEO expert before doing this.
Each content management system usually allows you to add something called "all text" to all the pictures on your site. The text is not visible to the average visitor. All text is actually used by the browser software to help blind Internet users understand the content of your images. Search engines crawl pictures in a similar way, so to insert some relevant keywords into the images, the search engines help understand the content on your page.
PAGELOAD – how "fast" is your website?
The content of your pages must be useful to people. If they are looking for something specific to find your site, they must be able to find what they are looking for. It must be easy to read and give value to the end user. Google has different ways to measure if content is useful using their advanced search algorithms.
Linking internally to other pages of your site is useful to visitors and it is also useful for search engines.
On-page SEO enables your site to be read by potential customers and crawlers. With good On-Page SEO, search engines can easily index your web pages, understand what your site is about and easily navigate between the structure and content of your site and thus rank your site in accordance with these factors.
Off-page SEO focuses on increasing the authority of your domain by getting links from other sites. A good analogy for how this works is: If you have a bathtub with rubber ducks (the ducks are your sides), and you start to fill the bathtub with water (links), your ducks will all rise to the top. A good example is Wikipedia. They have so much water in their bathtub that if you throw another duck in it, it will flow to the top without any special effort.
Create amazing content that people want to link to because it's valuable.
Share content in Social Media to eventually generate links.
Guest blogs on websites related to yours. These guest posts will have links back to your site.
While the link length is still important, content creators and SEO professionals realize that link quality is now more important than link length, and as such, divisive content creates the first step to earning valuable links and improving your off-page SEO.
How many links do you need for good off-page SEO? It's a tough question and it will be based on the dominance of your competitors because you want to make sure you play in the same sandbox. SEOs also believed that buying links was a valid way of linking the building. Google will now penalize you to buy links in an attempt to manipulate page rank. You can also be penalized to send links to link directories whose sole purpose is to increase your domain authority.
Again, quality wins beyond quantity when it comes to link building.
It's not about choosing between Off-page and On-page, it would be like choosing facades or a roof for your house. On-page and off-page work together to improve your search engine ranking. They complement each other!
To break it down in an action plan, you can think of On-page like the body of a house while Off-page is the facade, doors and windows. We can analyze your on-page quality and provide you with a plan to improve it, then we can go over and get an optimal plan to make sure your off-page is completing your "house" (your SEO house).

A woman who appeared on a YouTube video racially abusing fellow passengers on a south London tram has been arrested by police.
Emma West, 34, of New Addington, Croydon, hurled a barrage of racial slurs at members of ethnic minorities on a Croydon to Wimbledon tram, demanding that they "go back to their own country."
West's expletive-filled rant lasted several minutes as fellow passengers angrily challenged her and complained at her use of language in front of a number of children. West's young son was filmed sitting on her lap playing with an action figure throughout the diatribe.
The video attracted more than two million views after being posted on popular video sharing website YouTube on Sunday.
West was arrested by police on Monday and is accused of a racially aggravated public order offence. She is due to appear at Croydon Magistrates' Court later today.

We have finished the first week of school! Can you believe it? It seems to have flown by so quickly. Students are changing classes beautifully, and everyone seems to be getting to class on time each day. We are also jumping right into learning, and the students seem to be loving it!
Please remember that instruction begins at 7:30 each morning. All fifth graders have a writing block from 7:30 - 7:45. If your child arrives after 7:30, he or she is missing part of his or her writing class. Students who miss this writing block are still expected to turn in their writing on Fridays. Please contact your child's homeroom teacher if you have any questions or concerns about your child's writing assignments.
Let's take a look at what's happening in Mrs. Thompson's classes this week.
Reminder: your child may have me for several classes or just one. Please find the sections that pertain to your child and read them carefully. If you have any questions, feel free to email me: dallas.thompson@gcssk12.net.
POW Topic: Which season would you like to have all year long? Why?
This week in language arts, we plan to discuss our Paragraph of the Week, or POW. These are worked on each morning during the 7:30-7:45 writing block. The writing block occurs during homeroom, but the POWs are turned in to the language arts teacher on Fridays for a grade. Students will have a POW each week. POWs are broken down into small steps for each day of the week.
On Fridays, students are encouraged to read over their work and make any corrections. Fridays are also good times for students to catch up if they have missed any time during the earlier part of the week. If time allows on Friday, students may illustrate if they are finished.
This week, I will spend about 5-10 minutes reviewing my expectations for each section so students will be able to improve their writing. They will have a few minutes to edit what they wrote that morning before we begin our Shurley English lessons for the day.
Monday: Chapter 3, Lesson 1. Begin Classroom Practice; finish for homework.
Tuesday: Chapter 3, Lesson 2. Begin Classroom Practice; finish for homework.
Wednesday: Chapter 3, Lesson 3. Begin Classroom Practice; finish for homework.
Thursday: Chapter 3, Lesson 4. Begin Classroom Practice; finish for homework.
Friday: No Shurley English. Library Orientation. All POWs due at beginning of class.
Test: Next week, likely on Tuesday.
Last week, students got excited about blogging and working on Edmodo - this week, they actually get to begin! Students can't wait, so it will be a fun, new experience for them!
Each week, all activities will be based on the Common Core standard that I am teaching in class. This week, we are looking at CCRL.10. For more information on this standard, please click the "Reading" tab at the top of the page.
HOMEWORK: Students in fifth grade are expected to read for 30 minutes each night. Students should bring the book they are reading at home to school every day. Teachers check to see who has done their reading homework each day using Status of the Class.
Your child's reading class is broken down into rotations, or centers. Below, I will describe what students will be seeing when they participate in each rotation.
Students participate in Instructional Conversations, or ICs, during reading group. This means that students are encouraged to discuss what they are learning. The students will talk more than the teacher during these reading group times. I will be there to lead discussions and ask questions, but students will be talking with one another about their learning.
IC #1: Genres. Students will work with Scholastic book flyers to find books that represent the different genres we will study in 5th grade.
IC #2: Genre task cards. Students will play a game with task cards, determining the genre of different short stories.
Students will have three opportunities each week to work in literature circles. Students will be broken down into smaller groups of 3-4 students to read the same novel. They each have a job, or a role, to play in their literature circles. These operate like book clubs. We are introducing literature circles this week, and all students will receive their assigned books on Wednesday.
Lit Circle #3: First OFFICIAL lit circle meeting. Write basic publishing information, set a goal for the first week, and begin reading.
Students will have two half-hour rotations on the computer. Each week should include at least one Edmodo or Kidblog assignment, but usually one of each. Sometimes students will have a Study Island or LearnZillion assignment to complete.
Computer #2: Kidblog - set up account, choose theme, change password, and write your first post!
This week's assignment - Genre collage using Scholastic book flyers.
Students have 20 minutes in class to read independently every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. (There is no independent reading time on Thursdays.) On Fridays, all students have a 40-minute Read & Respond rotation. Students will have approximately 20 minutes to read during this block, and the other 20 minutes, students will respond to their reading in some way.
We are wrapping up our study of the Civil War this week. We had to change our schedule a bit last week to accommodate some district testing, so students were unable to go to the computer lab on Thursday. However, we will have some time in the lab on Monday for this.
To learn more about the standards your child will be learning in this unit, click on the "Social Studies" tab at the top of this page. Look for SS5H.1 and SS5H.2.
Tuesday: Wrap up the Civil War with a retelling. Discuss Reconstruction amendments (#13, #14, #15), sharecropping, and the Freedmen's Bureau.
Wednesday: Play review games; begin study guide for tomorrow's test.
Thursday: CIVIL WAR TEST. 3 essay questions; online multiple choice test.
Friday: Play Civil War interactive game.

D.K. Pan is an artist investigating the intersection of place and memory - through visual art, video, performance, public art, installation, interventions - exploring the interstices and histories of site; the personal and collective body.
D.K received GAP 2016 funding for 36 Views of the Sun: Meditations on Time, Hands, and Infinity, a photography project that investigates the temporary construction wall of the future light rail station in U-District. The project is an installation of 36 convex mirrors (18"/each) which utilize un-contracted Braille to spell out, "TIME IS MEMORY." The mirrors will face the UW Tower and create a dynamic facade reflecting the architecture, movement, and weather. The title is inspired by Henri Rivière's 36 Views of the Eiffel Tower, (which was influenced by Hokusai's 36 Views of Mount Fuji), referencing the 36 dots (mirrors) of the Braille sentence. On the face of each mirror will be a hand-drawn image, stenciled then acid-etched, referencing themes of time, hands, and infinity.
I'm grateful to Artist Trust for this grant. I sincerely appreciate the support to realize the project.


Readers responded to September's special issue "Energy's Future: Beyond Carbon" like there was no tomorrow--with critiques, alternatives and prescriptions to help assure that there will be. Critical letters ranged from global warming deniers to cautious skeptics, many of whom felt it was unscientific for Gary Stix to pronounce in the introduction, "A Climate Repair Manual," that "the debate on global warming is over." Vern Porter of Elk Grove, Calif., begged to differ: "It seems potency of water vapor as a greenhouse gas is largely ignored and its capacity to moderate temperatures unappreciated."
Then there were readers who concluded that if global warming is upon us, we should strive to adapt to it rather than to reverse its effects. Others felt achieving sustainability would require humanity to surmount not only technological but also cultural hurdles, including the willingness to control population growth. The largest volume of responses, however, offered options that were not covered, from harvesting lightning to white rooftops to underground homes lit with LEDs as well as a low-tech return to using clotheslines, more rail transport and the 55-mph national speed limit.


Mobile Ready Websites. Why does your website need to be mobile ready? Because visitors to your site need it to be.
MOBILE READY WEB DESIGN - WHY?
Why should your website be mobile ready? Because those visiting your site need it to be.
What web-enabled 'device' are you using to view this website - a desktop PC or a laptop perhaps? Statistically speaking, at least 50% of you are viewing it using a touch-based mobile device such as a Smartphone or Tablet. And that percentage is only set to increase, making desktop and laptop users a minority when it comes to those visiting any website.
Research by Google, that even now is over a year old (Feb 2012), shows a massive increase in Smartphone usage, with the UK having the highest increase of all. Similar increases are repeated with Tablet usage. The results of Google's research is reflected in many other surveys.
What is more important to realise though, is that the Smartphone is an 'always on' device, making the Web accessible at all times from virtually anywhere. Smartphone users have their device with them all day, everyday, wherever they go.
So would you say these people, using these devices, are less important to you than those using more 'traditional' means to access your website?
Websites designed for Desktop and Laptop PCs (90% of websites) do not work well when viewed on Smartphones or many Tablets. Mobile users are constantly having to pinch and zoom in order to read a site's content, whilst navigation links can be impossible to target (touch based devices use fingers to activate links, not a mouse cursor). Overall this makes for a frustrating, unpleasant experience for the mobile user.
The two screenshots below (Apple's iTunes) show what it is like for someone using a very common Smartphone device (Android OS, with 4 inch screen). Firstly, they get the whole site (designed for a large screen Desktop PC) compressed down in a 2.5 inch space - virtually all text is too small to read, and all link buttons are near impossible to select (to press using fingers).
Of course the Smartphone user can attempt to randomly zoom and hope the device's Web Browser will find a suitable 'column'. But as the screenshot shows (above right) this is a bit hit or miss?
Another 'not in the least bit mobile friendly' website!
Another example (above) of a website that's not mobile ready - The Spectator. The same problems as before: differcult to read and hard to navigate your way around?
And Now ... A 'MOBILE READY' Website!
The screenshots above show how a website should be presented to a Smartphone user - everything is either scaled or wrapped so that the user merely needs to swipe (scroll) up or down to access all the site's content. Navigation is easy too, with large finger-sized 'buttons' to press (click).
This makes for a far better 'user experience' for those with mobile devices?
"But what about the Desktop user", we hear you ask - "that layout is going to look strange for them?" But of course the desktop user gets a different layout.
The Desktop user is presented with a wider, two column layout with larger images and longer line lengths. Essentially this website responds to the user, presenting the content differently, depending on what device they are using.
Mobile Ready is a sister website produced by Frieze Design to highlight the importance of having a website that works well on mobile devices. Please contact us if you need help making your website 'mobile ready' or if you have any questions about the topics covered here.

Q: TSQL query optimization I have a query where the predicate is determined at run time. Based on my current design the return time on the query is less than optimal. The query isn't complicated and I have verified that the indexes that are needed (using Tuning Adviser) are in place. I have proven to myself that the query could be faster if the predicate was hard-coded.
Below is the query I am having issues.
The following query takes several minutes to complete
declare
   @matchFN                   bit         = 1     -- match on first name
  ,@matchLN                   bit         = 1     -- match on last name

;with cteContact1 as (
  select distinct
     c.ContactID
    ,ltrim(rtrim(FirstName)) FN
    ,ltrim(rtrim(LastName)) LN
  from
    dbo.contact c
  left outer join
    dbo.ContactCertification cc on c.ContactID = cc.ContactID
)
,cteContact2 as (
  select
     c.ContactID
    ,ltrim(rtrim(FirstName)) FN
    ,ltrim(rtrim(LastName)) LN
  from
    dbo.contact c
  left outer join
    dbo.ContactCertification cc on c.ContactID = cc.ContactID
)
select distinct
   *
from
  cteContact1 c1
join
  cteContact2 c2 on
    c1.FN = case when @matchFN = 1 then c2.FN else c1.FN end
    and
    c1.LN = case when @matchLN = 1 then c2.LN else c1.LN end

However, if I change the the final query to the following the query completes in under 5 seconds.
select distinct
   *
from
  cteContact1 c1
join
  cteContact2 c2 on c1.FN = c2.FN  and c1.LN = c2.LN

Ultimately, both queries should boil down to the same thing so why the dramatic difference in performance?

Restaurants in a Brazilian city will now be forced to offer half-price meals to obese people who have had gastric bands under new laws.
A la carte restaurants in Campinas, São Paulo state, face being fined if they fail to offer 50 per cent discounts to customers who are unable to eat a whole meal because they have gastric bands fitted.
Under the bylaw, signed off by the Mayor of Campinas, Pedro Serafim, customers must show a medical report or statement signed by a registered doctor to get the discount.
The new legislation came into effect on Thursday.
"We heard from many people before drawing up the law and there was a consensus that those who have had surgery cannot manage to eat half a meal for one person, yet they pay the whole price," councillor Francisco Sellin, the author of the new law, told São Paulo newspaper Folha.
The rules do not apply to drinks or to por-quilo restaurants, which are popular buffet restaurants in Brazil in which customers pay according to the weight of their plate.
Breaches of the law will result in a minimum fine of around £140.
The union of bars and restaurants in Campinas criticised the law, and said it will damage the takings at restaurants.
The union said it will monitor the effect of the law before making a decision on whether or not to challenge it.
Brazil is second only to the US for the number of gastric bypass procedures carried out while the cost of surgery is much lower than in other countries.
Earlier this year, it was reported that almost half of the Brazilian population was overweight or obese. The increase was blamed on poor diet, including rising consumption of fatty foods.

There are some types of packs in FIFA 15 Ultimate Team.
Always available on the store.
Available only on specific periods of time, like the Happy Hours.
Not available to purchase on the store. They are assigned to you in the beginning of the game, as daily gifts and as tournament and seasons rewards.
Christmas is coming. FIFA Ultimate TeamTM is celebrating FUTmas with new offers every day! From December 19, 2014 to January 2, 2015. We introduced FUTMas guide.
If you want to buy packs, you need to go to the FUT store. You can access to the store through the console or through the FUT Web App / Companion App. You find the right pack. Details of each pack are also provided, including the number of rare cards each pack has. The store has also a folder 'My Packs' where you can claim any packs that you have earned but not yet opened.
There are two ways to pay: with FIFA coins or with FIFA Points. To buy a pack you just need to select it in the store and choose the payment method.
There are a very rare kind of HH in which the chances of getting a good card are higher. These special Happy Hours are announced as '2x Chances', which means that the chances of getting an IF card during this period are two times higher than usual. However, these special Happy Hours are very rare. They only happen two or three times in a year.
– and during the Christmas period.
There are rumours that EA uses some extreme tactics to sell more packs. People say, for example, that there are better cards inside packs paid with FIFA Points and packs bought after new IF cards being released. Both make sense. In the first one, they are promoting the buying with FIFA Points. Fresh money. In the second one, they are creating the snow ball effect of 'if they got it, I also have good chances'. We can't prove if they are only rumours or not but in other times it seemed to us that there were better cards in packs mentioned. The manager tasks rewards are a good example. It also makes sense since it was created for beginners, we think that all the packs have good cards inside. Anyway, the only time that we have been sure about good times to buy packs are in the Happy Hours.
There are many players confused about what they should do: buying packs on the store, subscribing the Season Ticket / EA Access or buying the Ultimate Edition. We will try to give a help.
Let's start by the Ultimate Edition. It is true that the packs purchased on the store are more expensive than the ones that Ultimate Edition offers. However, we strongly recommend to not buy this special edition since it only gives one pack per week. Which means that players need to wait 24 weeks to get all the packs. No one wants this.
About the Season Ticket the things are a bit different. As it happens with the Ultimate Edition, subscribers only get one pack per week but it is also true that Season Ticket holders pay 20% less to buy packs on the store with real money (FIFA Points). For who buys many packs, this may be something very useful. The one year subscription gets paid after buying packs that is worth 10k FIFA Points. EA Access is not so interesting because you don't get free packs and because the discount is only 10%.
Tips: If you play in XBox 360 or Playstation 3 and you plan to buy many FUT 15 packs, subscribe EA Season Ticket as soon as possible. EA will stop selling Season Ticket Subscriptions in March of 2015 and they are replacing it by EA Access that only gives 10% discount.

Order In: Greg Vernick Is Rethinking His Restaurant For Takeout
Roasted chicken, handmade soups, and more of the restaurant's classic dishes are now available for curbside pickup.
By Maddy Sweitzer-Lammé·	 5/5/2020, 2:09 p.m.
Devoted foodies and restaurant newbies love Foobooz. Sign up now for our twice weekly newsletter.
Welcome to Order In, our new coronavirus-related column where we reach out to restaurant owners and chefs to talk about what they chose to do with their businesses during the crisis, how they made that choice, and what delicious foods you can still get from them via takeout to offer support in this difficult time.
We're open … for take-out, which you can order here, from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. We're doing a daily set menu that feeds two for $70 which you can find on our Instagram, plus a lot of a la carte options like ice cream, salads, soup, jam, ice cream and other stuff, based on customer request and what ingredients we have in the house.
The menu is … comfort food that isn't something you'd want to prepare at home, but that's also easy to reheat. I wasn't really looking to translate anything from our normal dinner menu. I think people who know our food will see a connection, but it's not the same menu at all. There are things that cross over, like our roast chicken. We have a good reputation for our roast chicken, so when we do that, we're getting a really good response from people. I think it's comforting but also really, really delicious.
You should order … Soup. At the restaurant, we serve a shot of soup at the beginning of the meal, and people have been asking me for years to sell the soups, so we're selling a lot of soups by the pint, as an a la carte option. We've got a bunch of flavors of soup, and that's been really fun to give people those familiar flavors in a way that is easy to take home and reheat.
I'm getting creativity from … getting back to the stuff I used to do when the restaurant first opened, like ordering and menu development. It's been a healthy exercise for me. We have to be really smart and diligent about how we spend money, so it's been a good lesson in how much you can do with little. There's so much more we can do with what we have — we've been taking deep dives into what we have in the house, how do we apply it, how do we make it delicious.
Vernick Wine is … continuing to do what it does best, which is offer a variety of wines in popular styles from lesser-known regions. We've got affordable daily wines, as well as some more expensive, celebratory bottles, because birthdays and anniversaries and other occasions are still happening, and we should all take advantage of those moments when we can.
The biggest lesson has been … how to cook food in a way that it will reheat well. Every dish we do, we run through the reheating process, and we edit the dish to make sure its going to be just as good in your house as it is in the restaurant. A few weeks ago, we did a grilled halibut, and when we went to reheat it the skin didn't re-crisp in the way that we wanted it to, so we had to change the dish a little. That's not something we had to worry about before, but some things just don't reheat well.
We're preparing for the long-haul because … I don't know how long it is going to be until we can fill the restaurant with seated guests, and even when we can, it's going to be at a smaller capacity. We'll have maybe fifty percent of the dining room, so in order to keep our numbers somewhat balanced, I think this curbside pick-up model is going to be important.

New Trend Among Idol-Actors: Historical Dramas
by J. Lee
Even the most talented actors sometimes feel burdensome acting in a historical drama due to its particular tone of speech and difficult vocabulary. Moreover, many actors and actresses find it challenging to understand historical characters and portray their personalities and stories through his or her own reinterpretation.
However, some idol-actors and actresses are garnering much attention by voluntarily accepting the challenges. miss A's Suzy, Kara's Han Seung Yeon, and 2AM's Im Seulong are all partaking in upcoming historical dramas. First, Suzy is starring in upcoming MBC drama "Gu Family Book" as Lee Seung Gi's partnering role. "Gu Family Book" is a comic martial arts action drama about Choi Gang Chi, who was born a half-man, half-beast, struggling to become a human.
In the drama, Suzy plays the role of martial arts trainer Dam Yeo Ul, who sports better martial arts skills than any other man at her gym. Through this character, Suzy will transform from her usual innocent-looking girl image to a charismatic female warrior. In the recently revealed trailer of "Gu Family Book," Suzy flaunts her sword-handling skills in a blue martial arts outfit and a top knot.
Kara's Han Seung Yeon will be starring in SBS "Jang Ok Jung," rivaling Suzy in the same time slot, starting on the same day. "Jang Ok Jung" aims at portraying Jang Hee Bin, who is historically known as a femme fatale with evil and selfish intentions and ambitions, as a fashion designer in Joseon Dynasty. In "Jang Ok Jung," Jang Ok Jung starts out her career in the palace as a designer who makes apparels and beddings for the royal family.
Han Seung Yeon plays the role of Sookbin Choi, who enters the palace as a maid for the royal family and ends up being one of the most powerful concubines in the palace with her son as the king. She meets and gets help from Jang Ok Jung (played by Kim Tae Hee) as Queen In Hyun's maid, but later becomes a villain and sides with Queen In Hyun to drive Jang Ok Jung to the corner.
2AM's Im Seulong, who's already been in drama "Personal Taste" and film "26 Years," is cast in upcoming KBS drama "The Fugitive of Joseon" to play Prince Lee Ho, who is unable to trust anybody and lives in anxiety because he has been getting death threats since the moment he was born. He will be in conflict with his stepmother Queen Moon Jung (played by Park Ji Young), who will do anything and everything it takes to make her biological son and Lee Ho's half-brother Prince Kyungwon the King.
The biggest reason why idols challenge themselves by taking roles in historical dramas is to prove that they got what it takes to be actors and actresses. Although many idols expand their comfort zone to acting, the public's reception of the transition isn't all welcoming since idols often get their roles not based on their acting skills, but based on the size of their fandom and popularity. While some idols successfully prove that they are as talented as other actors, the other unfortunate ones get sharp criticisms on their lack of talent in acting. Even if an idol-actor or actress proves his or her talent in acting, it is really difficult to get rid of the "idol" name from his or her title.
Another big reason for idol-actors and actresses to delve into historical acting is to change their public image. As idols, they appear mostly on music and variety entertainment programs to promote themselves and their songs. As a result, they are perceived as lighthearted, young, and showy. By wearing traditional costumes instead of extravagant stage outfits and speaking in series and dignified manners in historical dramas, these idol-actors and actresses are trying to show a different side of themselves to the public and fans.
Han Seung Yeon voice her hopes to appeal a different side of her at the recent press conference of "Jang Ok Jung." She said, "The public sees me as this cheerful girl and because everyone expects that of me, I've had some hard time keeping up with that delightful, bright, always-smiling character. However, I hope to show everyone that I've got different sides and characters within me through this challenge of historical drama."
An anonymous official of the broadcasting industry commented, "For any actor, historical dramas are like double-edged swords. It could work in one's advantage, showing his or her talent. But as a genre, it's difficult to digest, which means bigger risks and more chance at getting criticized if they do anything wrong. Since it's the first time for all three of them–Suzy, Han Seung Yeon, and Im Seulong–to act in a historical drama, it'd be interesting to see what kind of reviews they receive from the public and critics."

Teachers often have interests, skills, and specialties that can enrich their students' experience by extending their learning beyond the traditional confines of grade-level education. This paper proposes surveying faculty about their personal hobbies and interests, and creating a reference resource that will help school administrators and teachers access one another's personal interests in order to enrich their curricula. The researcher created two surveys. The first was a simple questionnaire focusing on teachers' resource/curriculum needs. Out of 225 teachers, 75 completed and returned the first questionnaire. This data was used to create a more detailed second questionnaire, which attempted to gather data about teachers' special interests in order to fulfill teachers' expressed needs. Out of 225 teachers, 100 responded. The results from the second questionnaire were then used to create a "Faculty Resource Manual" which was distributed to all teachers within the school district.

Why I really joined Arsenal – Alexis Sanchez
Last summer Arsenal fought off competition from Liverpool to sign Chilean star, Alexis Sanchez, from Barcelona for £35m.
However it was widely speculated that the reason behind this was to do with a desire to live in London, and evolved around his long-term girlfriend. A rumour spread by Liverpool fans as their club missed out on him and likely born out of envy, as they had just lost Suarez to Barcelona too.
However, we all know Arsenal are preferable in a number of ways other than location. The stadium, the manager, the consistent Champions League football, the fact we had begun to sign quality players rather than sell them, and of course we had just won the FA Cup. The list goes on.
Speaking to BT Sport in an interview that will air during Saturday's coverage of the final, Sanchez said: "The reason why I moved to Arsenal is because there were a group of young players with the ambition to achieve things.
"I thought that Arsenal was the perfect club for me, the perfect club to win titles and compete in every competition.
"Yes there is a joyful atmosphere in the dressing room," he told BT Sport.
"Arsenal is a magnificent club and I hope to win many titles here. I'm going to do my very best to help the club achieve success."
Sanchez is very happy with his first season, but is keen for the team to keep progressing on to greater things.
"It has been a positive season but I have still got ambitions to win more," he said.
"I would like to be closer to winning the Premier League title and get further in the Champions League.
"Every time I play I do it with the same motivation. I want the team to grow more and to compete in every competition we play."
The forward is renowned for his impressive work-rate, but he doesn't do it for the appreciation.
"I don't really perceive that," he added. "Every time someone takes the ball off me I feel like I've been stripped of my toy.
"When a player takes the ball off me I just want to win it back. That could work as a motivational tool for my team-mates but I don't think about that on the pitch."
And like every player signed by Arsene Wenger, Sanchez cites the boss as a key part of him joining the club.
"He is a legend. He is an Arsenal legend," he said. "You learn from him every day. Sometimes we discuss about things like I would like to train more, and he doesn't let me! But he definitely looks after me."
This will naturally be Sanchez's first FA Cup should Arsenal win, and he understands the history of the competition. A win will see Arsenal have won it more than any other club.
"The FA Cup is a competition with amazing history," he said.
"Today we watched a video about Arsenal's previous wins and thanks to the clips I trained with even more motivation. I hope we can win the cup so the Arsenal supporters are happy."
Unfortunately that's all we have of the interview so far, but come Saturday it will be intriguing (at the least) to see what he has to say, given a lack of interviews so far this season.
Sanchez has already won a title for himself this season though, the fans player of the year award.

I knew if I got the chance, I was ready – Coquelin
Francis Coquelin has had one of the most exceptional seasons of any player this year. Being dragged back from bottom half of the table Charlton, to fill in a midfield void left by yet another injury crisis, undoubtedly left many with raised eyebrows.
The Frenchman has been at Arsenal since he was at 17, and 7 years down the line at the prime age of 24, you would be forgiven for thinking he was never going to make it at a top club. The majority of youth products who are successful at the higher end of the football hierachy are breaking into the first team around 20, at the latest.
We just have to look at Jack Wilshere, Kieran Gibbs, and the surging 19 year old, Hector Bellerin this season.
But Francis wasn't happy about his recall to a side he thought he'd never play for again. Understandably, having never been an Arsenal regular, he was frustrated to have to leave regular first-team action at Charlton to return to the bench.
In an interview with The Telegraph he said:
"The boss came to me and said, 'you don't look happy'. I said, 'yeah, it's true'. I wasn't happy when I came back. I was playing regularly even if it was in the Championship and obviously to be back on the bench was frustrating. Then, out of the blue, against West Ham, the game that I didn't expect to start, I started.
"We were sixth at the time. West Ham were fifth. Massive game. It shows in football you really need to be ready at any time."
"I wasn't an Arsenal player in my eyes," he says. "I followed it. To come back from 2-0 down was quite unbelievable. I was looking but I wasn't part of it."
"It was always going to be a bit of luck," he says. "If I play against West Ham and we lose 6-0, I don't think I will play again. I always had hunger. I knew if I got the chance I was ready for it. I just needed the chance. I was full of confidence and ready for a fight."
It wasn't his first appearance in the Premier League though. An infamous 8-2 defeat at Old Trafford lurks in the memory. After that game, Sir Alex Ferguson criticised the Arsenal side, and Coquelin, as being 'completely out of his depth'. Yet the context of his return to the fold just 3-days after the Under-20 World Cup is often neglected.
"If I am coming back from a month and a half competition, and I get three days' holiday, it means Arsenal have no players," says Coquelin. "I knew it was going to be tough because no one was there. I think Armand Traoré was going the next day to QPR, Carl Jenkinson was making his debut, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was making his debut and Alex Song was suspended. They had a full squad and we had reserves; people who were just starting in the Premier League."
The 24-year old thinks the hardest thing however, would have been having to leave without getting a real chance to prove his worth.
"It would have been hard because I would have got a feeling I didn't get the chance," he says. "I would always have been thinking, 'I could have'. I would have been really disappointed. If someone said tomorrow, you have to leave now, I would be 'OK, at least I got the chance to show what I could'."
But this is just the beginning for the young Frenchman. He is just really starting out in what has the potential to be a phenomenal, and truly inspiring career.
"I want to win trophies with this club. We have got a good chance next week to get a trophy – a first trophy for me. I have been here since I was 17. If I could stay here all my career I would love it, too. This is the dream."

Ramsey Gunning For Cazorla's Position
Get back out wide Aaron!
Aaron Ramsey has become increasingly frustrated with being played out wide, and wants to return to a more central and defensive position alongside Francis Coquelin, where Santi Cazorla is currently playing.
The Welsh star has spoken out about his frustration and admitted that he has had several chats with boss Arsene Wenger about it, although accepts that he has done what he has needed to for the good of the team.
"I'm not hiding away from it, I want to be playing in the middle. I've had chats with the manager about it. I showed at Manchester United what I'm capable of doing when I go into the middle of the park.
"But the manager said he wants me do a job out there for the moment and obviously I'll do that for him. But I prefer to play in the middle."
However, he was glad to return to his preferred role for the Sunderland game on Wednesday despite a jaded performance from the whole team which resulted in a 0-0 draw, making it three consecutive games without a win at the Emirates after what had been the most successful run of form at the ground since it opened in 2006.
The 24 year-old wants to play alongside Coquelin so that he can help drive the team forward, but he has performed well on the right-wing despite an arguable lack of pace, certainly compared with the likes of Walcott, Sanchez and Chamberlain, producing a very good return of goals and assists from his time spent there.
Ramsey also said the manager was very willing to chat to him about and this epitomises the good spirit there is within the team.
"Santi Cazorla is the one in my position. He's the one who plays alongside Francis Coquelin and tries to get forward. I am trying to get that back.
"I like to get the ball and drive the team forward. I'm not a No10, playing with my back to goal. I'll try to play between the lines now and again if the game demands that and we're pressing quite high. That can be a dangerous position to take up.
"But I like to start from a defensive position and drive the team forward with little one-twos around players. That's where I prefer to play.
"The manager respects everyone's opinion. His door is always open, which is a good thing. He'll have his reasons but will also respect your reasons and value your opinions.
"It's harder to get involved in the game when you're on the wing, which is why I don't really enjoy playing there. I'm used to getting the ball a lot more in the middle of the park.
"I like to be involved in everything, in starting attacks. I'm relying on other people to get me into the game. It is a bit frustrating. I am having an impact on the game but I prefer to be much more involved."
Yet this shows his passion and desire to play and earn back his position in central midfield at Arsenal, which can only be a promising sign from an Arsenal fans perspective given the impending rumours that are set to come about with regards to his future, with the supposed £50m bid from Barcelona probably just the beginning.

Wenger on Walcott's "Special Destiny"
As we all know, Theo Walcott has been at Arsenal since the tender age of 16, but 10 years down the line at a prime age of 26, we have not seen him reach his full potential as we had once hoped.
Arsene Wenger is determined to keep the Englishman on his books for the foreseeable future though, despite speculation over his future with halting contract negotiations and only a year to left to run on his current deal.
Having just made his 300th appearance for the club, Wenger commented on Walcott's "special destiny" in his programme notes, and reiterated his point in his press conference today.
"Special destiny because it's unusual that a boy at 17 years old goes to the World Cup.
"After, he had the problem when England went to Brazil he was not selected by Capello… In 2014 he was injured.
"It's special when a boy goes at 17 to the World Cup, you think he will make four or five appearances [at World Cups].
"He's a special player with as well special tests on the mental front, and he overcame them all.
"He will have a special destiny as a player because nothing happens like planned with him, but he always responds in a very strong way."
Walcott has spent much of this season out after being hampered by an injury he picked up in last years FA Cup Third Round win over Tottenham. Despite coming back into the fold during the latter stages of this season, he has be unable to break back into the starting eleven following a great run of form by the team.
However, Arsene Wenger claimed his desire to keep Walcott at the start of May: "Being 26 to 32 is the best age as a striker and I wouldn't like to miss that golden age."
The manager thinks there's a lot more to come from Theo, and hopefully he's right.


A cancer diagnosis can require you to expand your vocabulary, learn about treatment options and side effects, and ask questions you never thought you'd need to consider. Luckily, our experts can be great resources when it comes to expanding your knowledge.
This past year, our doctors shared insight on topics ranging from immunotherapy, clinical trials and stem cell transplants to fertility and cancer. Here are seven recent posts with our experts that our readers found especially helpful.
You've probably heard of immunotherapy, a new type of treatment that uses the body's own natural defense system to attack cancer. But what is it, and who should consider it?
Learn more in this interview with Dr. Padmanee Sharma, co-leader of MD Anderson's immunotherapy platform.
At one time, chemobrain was considered temporary or an emotional or stressful reaction to having cancer. Today, through the research of neuropsychologists like Jeffrey Wefel, Ph.D., and Shelli Kesler, Ph.D., we better understand how certain chemotherapy agents actually induce brain damage.
Learn about our neuropsychology research and how our neuropsychologists are helping cancer patients.
Phase I clinical trials are the foundation for how we develop new cancer drugs. And, for many patients, they can offer hope of successful treatment.
Learn more about Phase I trials in this interview with David Hong, M.D.
Stem cell transplants are often the best option to treat leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma, as well as bone marrow failure syndromes like myelodysplastic syndrome.
Learn about the different types of stem cell transplants and how they work in this Q&A with Borje S. Andersson, M.D.
Some cancer treatments can affect patients' fertility. So, it's important to talk to your doctor about your fertility concerns as early as possible. "The earlier you have the conversation, the more options you have if you decide to pursue fertility preservation treatment," says Terri Woodard, M.D., head of the MD Anderson Oncofertility Consult Service.
Read nine more things she wants you to know about fertility and cancer.
Up to half of all cancer deaths could be prevented with healthy lifestyle changes. Read our Q&A with Dr. Ernest Hawk to learn how our Moon Shots Program is leading the way to end cancer not just through research and treatment innovations, but also through cancer prevention.
Diagnostic imaging scans such as MRIs, PET scans and CT scans help our doctors stage a patient's cancer and determine the best course of treatment. While some patients may worry about the radiation exposure, our doctors go to great lengths to ensure they use only the amount of radiation necessary to get the answers they need.
"If you look at our data for the past six years in interventional radiology, we have consistently decreased radiation exposure by 30-40% on average," says Kyle Jones, Ph.D. Learn more.


Many U.S. workers do not bring up concerns about occupational asthma at their doctor's office because the workers fear that their lives or type of work may need to change, says a study by American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology(ACAAI). The research was announced on Feb. 3, 2015, and was published in the "Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology," the scientific publication of the ACAAI.
Doctors also do not bring up the topic of work-related asthma with their patients. Only 15 percent of asthmatic employed adults talked to their doctor about the effects that their workplace may have on their asthma, even though 46 percent of the workers had asthma that could be work-related. Many people believe that nothing can be done to remedy their situation. Researchers based these findings on data on more than 50,000 employed adults with asthma in 40 states and the District of Columbia who participated in telephone interviews as part of the Asthma Call-back Survey between 2005 and 2010.
Are there airborne conditions at work that cause you to have shortness of breath, cough, or wheeze?
Do your asthma symptoms improve when away from work such as on vacation or on weekends?
The ACAAI recommends that patients see a board-certified allergist who can perform allergy tests, identify triggers, and provide a personalized asthma management plan. The ACAAI handbook "Asthma Management and the Allergist: Better Outcomes at Lower Cost" says that patients with moderate to severe asthma who were treated by an allergist were much less likely to be hospitalized, visit emergency departments, or to miss days at work. More information about asthma is available on the ACAAI website.

North Wales Women's Centre Mission is to:
'cultivate and advance the social and economic development of women in our community'
The North Wales Women's Centre is a safe place for women to access information, support, advocacy and training on issues relating to health, wellbeing and work. Established in 2001, the Centre operates from Rhyl town centre. Whilst we are painfully aware that Rhyl West is the highest ranked ward on the Index of Deprivation in Wales and two other wards of the town are high on the list also, we are working hard with the women of Rhyl to try and change this through the building of aspirations and skills.
We support women, and those who identify as women, from the age of 16 upwards with no upper age limit. The majority of women referred come from the Rhyl area and many present with problems associated with areas of deprivation; including high unemployment and poverty rates, health inequalities and low educational attainment. Women come to us for a wide variety of reasons but the majority come for help to progress with their lives. Some women come to build a social network and others come to provide us with the benefit of their experience by joining more than 60 volunteers who help us to run the Centre. Reducing isolation through social networks and intergenerational support are particular features of the Centre\'s work. Women come to learn new skills in an environment that encourages socialising, supportiveness, dignity and respect.
Since 2001 the organisation has delivered a variety of projects enabling the provision of a wide range of services and activities helping over 2500 women improve their health, confidence and livelihoods. The demand for the services is always heavy and waiting lists are the norm.
We work closely with agencies from the statutory and voluntary sectors and our multi-agency approach allows us to provide a 'one stop shop' support service to women. Many agencies refer women to us and we refer to them. Each year we deliver services to approximately 400 women and 70 to 80 women attend the Centre daily. Of these 400 women, 200 access intensive one to one support. This 'Information & Support' service is provided to those more vulnerable women with multiple and complex issues which are preventing them from progressing to happier more fulfilled lives. Typical issues dealt with are domestic violence, homelessness and poverty.
Community Justice
The organisation also has a history and growing track record of engaging vulnerable women who have difficulties in their lives which may, or has, resulted in them breaking the law. NWWC is as a member of the Women's Breakout centres across the UK. This network functions to divert women from custody by supporting offenders and those at risk of offending to tackle the problems that may cause their offending behaviour.
In the past five years there has also been a developing outreach service where support is provided on a one to one basis to women further afield and particularly in the more rural areas of the County of Denbighshire and along the North Wales Coast.
NWWC takes referrals from many agencies including Social Services, Police, Hafan Cymru, Women\'s Aid, Health agencies, GPs, Victim Support, Community Mental Health Teams, Drug and Alcohol agencies, Probation Trust, Drug Intervention Programme, BAWSO and many more whilst the majority are self- referrals.

As is usual in Cape Town in the winter months when we have our big winter storms a ship or two will get into trouble and run aground on our coastline.The last ship to do so in Table Bay was the Sealand Express in the winter of 2006.
On the 31st of July 2008 with the refloated Sealand Express looking on, two trawlers got themselves into trouble in the rough seas to the east of Robben Island and eventually ran aground about 200 metres apart at Derdesteen on the coastline of Table Bay.
When ships get into trouble at sea there is normally more to the story than meets the eye. In this case there seems to be one as well. There are conflicting reports about the two ships and what actually happened .
It appears from reports and what I can gather from talk at the wreck sites that the Seawin Sapphire a deep sea trawler with a hold full of tuna and swordfish arrived in Table Bay and was loathe to enter port as she had fish on board that she should not have had. The Weskus 1 a trawler owned by the same company was summoned to meet up with the Seawin Sapphire so that some of the fish could be transferred to her as she was not likely to be inspected when arriving back in port.
While the two ships were out in the bay attempting to transfer the fish ropes that were holding the trawlers together fouled the the Weskus 1's propeller putting her at the mercy of the sea. Reports in the newspapers confirm that the Weskus 1 propellers were fouled by ropes although there are other reports that she suffered engine failure as well. Who other than the crew really know the true story of what happened aboard the Weskus 1.
Are these the ropes that fouled the Weskus 1's propeller?
The only true fact that everybody now knows is that the Weskus ran aground at about 5.00pm on the 31st of July 2008 and that her crew had to jump overboard in rough seas to get to the beach, luckily with no loss of life.
In the meantime the Seawin Sapphire was also in trouble reporting that she had hit a submerged reef and that her propeller was damaged. The wind and the large sea that was running soon washed her ashore and she ran aground about two hundred metres from the Weskus 1. The waves breaking onto the beach were large and the 13 crewmen on the Seawin Sapphire had to jump overboard into these large waves to get safely ashore. There were thankfully no casualties and all the crew were rescued from the waves and brought safely ashore.
The two ships were now firmly aground on the sand and were being battered by the sea with each big wave driving them further up the beach. Thankfully the weather changed for the better and the authorities were able to get aboard the two ships and unload the equipment and bunker oil on board thus preventing any pollution of the beaches in the area. The estimated 60 tons of fish in the holds of the Seawin Sapphire were also removed and confiscated by the authorities as it was suspected that the ship had been poaching fish. It was now up to the authorities and the owners to salvage the two ships before the weather changed again.
Is the sun setting on the Weskus 1 now lying with its deck towards the sea?
Unfortunately the weather changed again and the Weskus 1 which was lying hull onto the sea was pounded so badly by the waves that she turned over onto her other side so that her deck was facing the sea. She lay on the beach unharmed for a few more days before another storm arrived and the ship was once again pounded by the waves. Around the 12th of August the seas got really big and the Weskus1 started to break up and was soon just driftwood lying on the shore.
The local authorities and Nature Conservation did an excellent job protecting the beaches from pollution and by the 13th of August had large containers filled with bits and pieces of the Weskus 1. The cabin that had broken away from the hull was still lying in the sea but as soon as the tide allowed it was pulled up onto the beach and broken up and removed with the other remains of the ship. I'm sure that the Weskus 1 could have been saved from the sea if someone had just decided to pull it up the beach out of the waves. It was a much smaller and lighter ship than the Seawin Sapphire and a bulldozer could have dragged it to safety. Unfortunately it was not to be.
In the meantime the larger Seawin Sapphire lodged itself in the sand and managed to withstand the beating it got from the sea while it waited for the salvagers to make up their minds how they were going to remove her from the beach. There were a number of methods discussed, such as pulling her off the beach with a tug, but with shallow seas along the coastline and hidden reefs it was decided that there was a possibility that the tug could also get into trouble so the idea was shelved. In the end it was decided that the Seawin Sapphire would be pulled up onto the beach using heavy duty pulling equipment and once she had reached the parking lot at Derdesteen she would be loaded onto a trailer and removed to the Table Bay harbour by road.
Around the 19th of August 2008 preparations to pull the Seawin Sapphire up the beach began in earnest. A heavy duty rig was installed in the parking lot at Derdesteen and using a block and tackle type of arrangement the Seawin Sapphire was first turned so that her bow faced the road. This took the salvagers about two hours to do with the pulling power of the rig and the help of a number of mechanical diggers moving sand out of the way to enable the ship to turn. As the tide was pretty high at the time the sea lifted the ship off the sand every time a wave broke over her and assisted with the turning of the ship. Once the ship had been turned it was necessary to change the shackles and the cables pulling the ship to pull from both sides of the ship to get it moving in a straight line.
Overnight the ship was painstakingly dragged up the beach and by the afternoon of the 20th was a metre or two from the parking lot. The ship was eventually pulled into the parking lot and from there was lifted off the ground so that a trailer and dolleys could be rolled in under her. It took two days build the trailer and lift the ship onto it. Once on the trailer the ship was secured by welding stays onto its hull and onto the trailer as well as with chains around it to stop it moving.
Sometime during this process the propeller which was apparently damaged when it hit a submerged reef was also removed from the ship.
The metal ring surrounding the propellor known as the Kort Nozzle is undamaged so how could the propellor have hit a rock?
Eventually on the 25th of August 2008 the Seawin Sapphire was ready to be removed from the beach and begin its journey through the streets of Cape Town back to Table Bay Harbour. The rig pulling the 88 wheel trailer and ship had two trucks linked together pulling it at about 8 kilometres an hour. The route taken by the convoy of police and traffic officials into town was quite an involved one and had to be clearly thought out as the height of the Seawin Sapphire on the trailer was nearly the same as that of the street lamps lining the route. It would have been impossible to remove overhead wires and street lamps to allow the ship to pass.
The route followed was from Derdesteen into Melkbosstrand and then along the west coast road to Blouberg Road in Table View where the convoy turned eastwards to get to Koeberg Road. Once on Koeberg Road it went as far as Boundary road where it turned westwards to get back onto Marine drive to enable the ship to enter the harbour in Paarden Eiland. After a journey lasting nearly eight hours from Derdesteen the ship finally entered Table Bay Harbour where she will be unloaded from the trailer and repaired before being refloated. Following this drama has been a really interesting experience for me and I hope you have enjoyed the article and photos I have put on this webpage for you.


Set your table with rustic charm and warmth by creating this tablecloth and candle set!
Spray repositionable adhesive on the back of the stencil and press onto linen.
Place a small amount of paint onto a pallet. Dip your stencil brush into the paint. Spread it around in a circle on a fresh space so that the paint is evenly distributed on the bristles. Blot the end of your brush on a paper towel to remove excess paint.
Dab the paint onto the area you are stenciling. Let the paint dry and repeat for a second coat.
Allow the paint to dry before peeling the stencil from the fabric and place on a new section of linen. Repeat making 4 bird stenciled pieces.
Pull burlap strands from the edges of the tablecloth to create a fringed edge.
Cut around the stenciled bird pieces leaving a 1" to 2" border for stitching.
Pin the bird pieces to the corners of the burlap tablecloth.
Cut an 18" piece of floss, thread your needle and tie a knot at one end of the thread.
Starting on the backside, stitch the bird piece to the burlap with a running stitch around the border of the linen. Optionally, you can pick threads on the edge of the linen to make it more rustic.
To make the corner tassels, cut 4, 1" x 12" strips of fabric from the accent fabrics. Pull the strips through your hand to make the edges raggedy.
If you have extra fabric, you can cut an accent square for the center of the tablecloth. Finish the edge with a running stitch.
Tip: The secret to successful stenciling is having a very small amount of paint on your brush while you dab the paint into place.

Perhaps you think it takes specific skills to improve your home's interior planning. It might shock you to find all of the resources available to you regarding your home's interior design. This article will show you where to begin on your projects.
Keep in mind the usage of the room space when you are planning a design. If you are decorating your child's bedroom, you may consider using lively and bold colors to match their personality. But those colors won't work in a library for instance.
Make sure to keep your space functional whenever you design an office. Lighting is important when you are working, so is a comfortable chair and desk. You should focus on making the room comfortable to work in and pleasing to the eye.
Prior to redesigning a room, consider what mood you want it to convey. Moods can vary, depending on how you feel as it can be wild or someplace that is nice and relaxing. Selecting a mood prior to starting will help you map out your decisions for your space so that you are more likely to achieve the feel that you want when you finish.
Never try to decorate a room without removing clutter first. Pretty much any home will benefit from a nice de-cluttering. You can donate your items to charities, recycle them or have a garage sale to make some extra cash.
A good tip is to use a variety of patterns and textures in every room. Different patterns and textures add detail and accent each other. If you are going for a modern look, using textures and patterns is key.
Think about getting non-traditional countertops for your kitchen. Though granite is a great, traditional option, surfaces such as cork, wood or even concrete can offer great appeal. These materials are often times less expensive, and it adds a bit of uniqueness to your kitchen.
Pictures are a great place to show your personality. Do not forget that they are a part of the design of a room too. You can think of cool ways to design them with a little planning. Try placing them in the right angles or patterns. Taking advantage of all of the white space can enhance the mood of the house.
If you are framing a picture, use creativity and imagination. They are also part of the room's design. They don't have to be hung in straight, horizontal lines. Try to hang them in planned angles or patterns. Making use of surrounding white space can create some interesting effects and even change the mood of a room.
It is a good idea to use popular elements in your design. New decorating trends can be unique, interesting and give a great vibe to a room. But when it comes to trends, they should always be used in moderation as an accent. When a tablecloth, pillows or a certain type of art becomes dated quickly, you can then swap those inexpensive things out with ease. A trendy living room suite is much more difficult to replace than one or two pillows.
A good interior planning project always revolves around excellent lighting. You can incorporate light into spaces using numerous methods, including lamps, candles, windows, and mirrors. By adding different light sources to a room you can make your space more vibrant and interesting.
Paint is something that you will want to invest in, as you should purchase a high quality product to do the job right. Cheap paint is actually bad for your walls, and it wears away quickly. This will cost you as time goes on. Invest in quality paint to make sure your design lasts.
A good thing to think about when you are hanging mirrors is to put them across from a window. A nice mirror can reflect the window's light and make it look like there are two windows. Your room will instantly feel brighter and more expansive.
If you have a tile floor, you can use an area rug to set it off. Be sure to rotate rugs often in order to even out the wear and tear they are exposed to. Moving a rug to a new spot, or just turning it around, can keep it looking fresh for longer.

Sun shines on music fest
Ellen Cook
Published: 10:33 AM July 8, 2010 Updated: 6:33 PM November 7, 2020
BEER'S Music 4 Life was a sunshine-blessed success. The 12-hour live music extravaganza at Beer Albion Football Club featured 15 bands, including the Blue Bishops, the Partly Animals and Dan Crisp. They all donated their services for free, in aid of Hospiscare and the Devon Air Ambulance.
It is hoped the charities will receive around �4,000 each, with money available for other local charities too. Dan Crisp gave �600 each to Music 4 Life and Cancer Research and the silent auction lot of a framed limited edition print by local artist Andrew Coates raised �160.
Streetheat Samba Band launched the event at Jubilee Gardens, then moved up to the football club.There were stalls, food, a bar, a magician, games including golf, a dog show and a bouncy castle. The magician was meant to be a static show, but happily wandered around entertaining the crowds.
Organiser Annie Boalch estimated there were up to 500 people on site at any one time. "There was a nice flow of people, from families in the afternoon to couples and groups of friends in the evening," she said. "The atmosphere in the afternoon, with the little ones dancing around and people enjoying the activities was wonderful."
She thanked everyone who had helped, including Steve and Mandy; Gill and Jim; Garth and Angie; Liz and Kevin; Lynne and her husband David.

Views of water-lily strewn Hinman Lake are one of the attractions of the Hinman Creek trail that, along with the Coulton Creek Trail, is accessible early in the season due to their low elevations. The Dome Peak area receives low use and is excellent for the hiker seeking solitude, and a little sweat.
