Law&Crime to Create Two New True-Crime Series for Facebook Watch
by Law & Crime Staff | 2:07 pm, December 2nd, 2019
Law&Crime Productions announces two new true-crime series "Vanished" and "Buried With Love" to launch exclusively on Facebook Watch.
The Facebook commissioned 8-episode short-form series will each tap into the online network's thriving community of true crime followers. Viewers will have the ability to weigh-in and influence future episodes via calls to action across key social channel posts, stories, and polls. The Law&Crime Network will also host Watch Parties and use the audience comments to engage with viewers and provide facts of the stories being told in real time.
"There is a huge appetite for true crime on Facebook, as evidenced by the literally thousands of private group Pages dedicated to solving and following crime," said Law&Crime President, Rachel Stockman. "We are excited to provide a new way to tap into this community through compelling short-form storytelling. We also hope our stories will make a difference, and help solve some of these tragic cases."
The news comes on the heels of A&E Networks announcing the launch of "Court Cam," which Law&Crime Productions created and produced. The weekly 30-minute show takes viewers behind the scenes of some of the most dramatic courtroom moments captured on camera. To find the series, viewers can type in "Vanished" or "Buried with Love" within the search bar on Facebook once the episodes are released.
A show covering the stories of children who have mysteriously disappeared anywhere from weeks to decades in the past and seeks the public's help in finding them. In each episode, we will highlight the missing child's last whereabouts, any known suspects related to the disappearance, and provide tangible ways the online community can help solve the case. The first episode will air Dec. 26 with a subsequent seven episodes airing weekly every Thursday.
Buried With Love
A true crime story of Ohio high school cheerleader Brooke Skylar Richardson charged with murder after police found her newborn baby buried in her backyard. The 8-episode short-form series will unravel the many twists and turns surrounding the case against Richardson. The Ohio cheerleader became pregnant in August 2016 and gave birth to a baby girl alone in her bathroom, two days after she attended senior prom, hiding her secret. The first episode will air December 15 with a subsequent seven episodes airing weekly every Sunday.
Vanished is executive produced by George Plamondon, Law&Crime founder Dan Abrams and Rachel Stockman with Supervising Producer Chris Van Cleef; Buried with Love is executive produced by Whitney Ellis, Dan Abrams and Rachel Stockman.

Buried With Love, Vanished


YUMA, Ariz. – Yuma Sector Border Patrol agents near Wellton and Quartzsite, arrested 15 subjects, including two United States citizens, in separate attempted human smuggling incidents, and averted a significant drug smuggling event Saturday.
The first event occurred Saturday at approximately 1:40 a.m. at the Interstate-8 Immigration Checkpoint near Wellton. A white Ford E-350 van approached the primary inspection lanes where Wellton Border Patrol agents questioned the driver, a male 52-year-old United States citizen, and eight passengers regarding their citizenship status. The eight Mexican national passengers each acknowledged not having any paperwork for legally being in the United States. The driver and all eight passengers were arrested and the vehicle was seized.
In the second event near Quartzsite at approximately 5:45 a.m., agents directed a black 2000 GMC Yukon to the secondary inspection area of the Immigration Checkpoint. A short time later, Blythe Border Patrol agents initiated a traffic stop on the same GMC Yukon while traveling on Highway 95. Multiple individuals were seen to occupy the previously empty vehicle. Five illegal immigrants and the 22-year-old male United States citizen driver were taken into custody. The five subjects, ranging in age between 17 and 41, were from Guatemala and Mexico. The five subjects circumvented the immigration checkpoint on foot before being picked up by the driver after he successfully passed through the checkpoint alone.
In the third event at approximately 3:30 p.m. near Wellton, a Border Patrol canine positively alerted to a blue 2012 Ford Fusion in the primary inspection lane of the Interstate-8 Immigration Checkpoint. After a vehicle search, agents found hidden compartments in the rocker panels on both sides of the vehicle. The hidden compartments held 35 cellophane wrapped packages with 37.8 pounds, worth $113,400, of methamphetamine. The driver was a 20-year-old male lawfully admitted for permanent residence living in Somerton, Arizona.

Water flows again after 80 years from Upper Eden landmark
Platform 3 soft play centre reopens
Owners of a soft play centre at Kirkby Stephen have welcomed children back after nearly five months of being closed down under COVID-19 guidelines.
Despite jubilation at being able to open the doors of Platform 3 again, Philippa and Rob Burton were disappointed by the lack of communication or notice that they could reopen from the Government.
On 13th August, the Government announced soft play centres could reopen two days later, as part of the latest phase on easing lockdown.
With less then 48 hours notice they could begin to trade again, Philippa and Rob, who live at Kirkby Thore, took the decision to delay opening their doors while they got all measures in place.
This has included a further deep clean of the play equipment, restocking their cafe, arranging staff and training workers in the new safety procedures.
Philippa added: "I hadn't been told anything despite constantly emailing anyone I could think of for information.
In Wales, soft play opened and Scotland were set to reopen in September, but we had no date. They hadn't even said what we needed to do to reopen."
In the time Platform 3 was shut, they received just one £10,000 grant which had to cover a wage for Philippa, and ongoing overheads including rent and insurance.
As Phillipa is co-owner, she was unable to be put on furlough and, in a loophole many have expressed upset over, she had not been self-employed long enough to qualify for those grants.
However, the couple, who have two young sons — four-year-old Jackson and six-year-old James — are now keen to get back to business and see children enjoying their facilities once again.
The business is operating 90-minute time slots for up to eight children, with a maximum of six allowed on any one booking.
Parties can also be held between 3.30pm and 5pm, subject to no other bookings already having taken that time slot.

Great opportunity to live again!!!
Its cancer…. just could not believe my eyes when I saw my report. When my tissue was sent for biopsy I assumed it would just be a normal fibroid but FNAC confirmed it to be the deadliest cancer. In March 2013 I was diagnosed positive for breast cancer. Initially I thought that my end was near because I had seen cancer only as a death sentence in my family – for my father and grandmother both died of stomach cancer. The most important reason for such negative thoughts was that we could not afford the expensive treatment of cancer. For me and my husband it seemed impossible to manage the funds. Yet Asif did not leave any stone unturned to get surgery and chemotherapy at concessional rates. I got a breast conservative surgery done followed by chemotherapy, with one more to go. Due to severe thrombosis on my hand had to undergo another surgery for a chemo port. After three weeks from the last chemo I will have to take radiotherapy.
God has his own plans. Now I have made up my mind to fight the disease, with a strong will power to live a healthy life in future. I feel lucky to have real good friends around who helped me a lot. My doctors: Dr Kamran Khan and Dr Adwaita Gore were very kind and helpful. My friend Rajeeta introduced me to Rita ma'am, who came forward to finance my treatment (Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy) through her Charitable Trust – RACE to rein-in-cancer. She has inspired me a lot. RACE to rein-in-cancer has come as a savior of my life at the right time! I am sincerely grateful to RACE for this timely support.I feel fortunate to have a husband like Asif, who stands by my side at all times. He has always been there for me in toughest situations.
First Financial Aid by RACE was extended to Ms Tasneem Shaikh (Age 37 yrs) of Mumbai for her treatment of breast cancer in 2013.
Tasneem Shaikh, 37 years old, from Mumbra, was referred to us by Ms Rajeeta Vishwakarma for financial support. I met her husband and learned about the large number of difficulties faced by the young couple not only for Tasneem's treatment but also in their day to day living. At that timeRACE to rein-in-cancer was hardly few months old as a registered body, with very limited resources. Fortunately, we got good response and were able to collect good donation for her treatment. Tasneem went through the treatment and recovered in no time. She attended our volunteer training workshop at Gandhinagar and also became a member of RACE.

Indonesian in Australia Relies on e-Commerce to Help Family Back Home
BY :IRIS ZENG
Sydney. Being thousands miles apart from her homeland, Yunie Rahmat —an Indonesian living in Australia— can only rely on online marketplaces to buy oxygen tanks for her family back home, as Indonesia's fierce fight against the Covid-19 pandemic continues.
Indonesia's Covid-19 tally has worried the Indonesians living abroad, and Belmore resident Yunie is no exception.
Yunie is currently living in the epicenter of Australia's Covid-19 crisis that is now a " national emergency". Since June 26, a strict lockdown has forced Sydney residents to stay at home. And from within her four walls, Yunie orders medical supplies online for her family in Bandung, West Java.
"I send medical supplies to my family in Indonesia from online shopping, like medicines, oxygen, masks, thermometers," Yunie said.
Infections soar, and so does the demand for oxygen. News of Indonesians queuing to refill their oxygen cylinders have painted a grim picture of the pandemic situation in the country. Given the scarcity, Yunie is lucky to have sourced oxygen from online marketplaces such as Shopee and Bukalapak, unlike many of her friends back home.
"One of my friends has a very critical condition because she has asthma," she said.
"She has problems finding oxygen both online and also in shops. Even if you go directly to the retailer, lots of people are already queuing and the supplies are very, very limited," she added.
Not only are oxygen tanks running out, but ICU beds and ventilators are at capacity. Poverty rates rise in Indonesia, leaving citizens poor, hungry, and sick amid the pandemic.
"It has been very devastating for us Indonesians to be here because we are constantly worried about our family in Indonesia," Yunie said.
"I'm angry at the level of denial and the level of underestimation from the Indonesian government towards Covid-19."
Daily death news from overseas reaches Rahmat through Whatsapp messenger as she is confined in her apartment.
"Unfortunately, my father-in-law did not make it," Yunie said. "We lost people we love. We lost people we know."
And like thousands of other Indonesian compatriots separated from home, she feels helpless before Indonesia's ravaged situation.
"It makes me anxious, it makes me frustrated, and I can do nothing from here," she said.
The Covid-19 Task Force reported on Friday the coronavirus death toll in Indonesia reached 104,010 fatalities, with cases continually growing. Government data showed that Indonesia now has over 3.6 million confirmed Covid-19 cases.
Yunie cannot do much in lockdown. She lives in a Covid-19 hotspot with her husband and young son, but her thoughts are with Indonesia.
"Sometimes you really want to control things, but this pandemic makes me realize that so little of it, we can control,' Yunie said.
She misses home, but tries to find things that make her happy, like watching movies, cooking nasi goreng ('fried rice'), and calling her family in Indonesia.
"Try to avoid overthinking about the future events that we don't have the capacity to control," she said.
"I chat with my mother, my father, my sister and my brother every day, and we have Zoom calls or WhatsApp calls at least once a week."
Lucky in Lockdown
The NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has stretched the state-wide lockdown to August 28 to combat the spread of the Delta strain.
Australia's total Covid-19 cases climbed to 35,000, with nearly three hundred new infections recorded daily in the past week. Strict stay-at-home orders from late June remain in place alongside ongoing contact tracing, Covid-testing, and a nationwide vaccine rollout. Given the pandemic situation is worse in Indonesia, Rahmat considers herself lucky.
"We are lucky the protocols are clear, and the testing capacity is bigger compared to our families in Indonesia who are struggling everyday with Covid," Yunie said.
According to the NSW Ministry of Health, Sydney residents must stay within 10 kilometres of their local government area (LGA), wear mandatory masks, and cannot leave home unless for an essential need, such as buying food or medical reasons.
Shopping and outdoor exercising are severely restricted to no more than one or two people at a time.
"It's sort of just toughing it out," Dan Trevanion, a volunteer at Australian Indonesian Youth Association (AIYA) said.
"We're never too far away from the lockdown potentially being done."
For him, the biggest lifestyle change was socializing. He has not seen his friends in several months.
"Next month turns out to be three or four. So, we're always living in false hope."
At home, he spends time volunteering at AIYA, a nonprofit organisation that supports Indonesian youth across the Pacific. They run virtual workshops and webinars for young people in Jakarta and Yogyakarta.
'Our main role during the pandemic has been keeping everyone engaged, social and active and feeling like they're supported by friends and people," Trevanion said.
Trevanion is also aware of how many Indonesians appeal for blood donations and oxygen for their loved ones on social media.
"That's quite confronting, seeing your friends post this sort of stuff about their family members," he said.

Troy Terry to Play against the Canucks
The 2015 5th Round Pick and Olympian will make his Ducks Debut Tonight
By Reindeergames@ReindeerGames91 Mar 27, 2018, 1:34pm PDT
Share All sharing options for: Troy Terry to Play against the Canucks

Unless you have been living under a rock, you have already heard that the Ducks have signed Troy Terry to his 3 year ELC. Well in addition to that news, it was reported yesterday that Terry would be on his way to Vancouver to join up with the Ducks. Not only did he make it in time for the morning skate, but he will be inserted into the lineup for tonight's game!
Randy Carlyle said Troy Terry will play tonight for Ducks. Called him a skilled player that will play with some of their skilled. (Also, the photog in me just wanted to post a better shot). pic.twitter.com/IBD0P0Ogmo
— Eric Stephens (@icemancometh) March 27, 2018
To cover some bases with this one. Ducks did not go through lines this morning. It appears Chris Kelly will come out of lineup. But as far as where Terry will play, that remains to be seen tonight. Feel free to play the home version of Ducks Lineup.
From the perspective of the Ducks, the timing of Denver University's loss to Ohio State was perfect. This allows the team to not only sign Terry with time left in the season, but insert him into the lineup against a downtrodden and injured Canuck's team.
The final point to take away from Eric Stephen's tweets is that it seems like Terry will not simply be put on the 4th line in Chris Kelly's spot. Per Randy Carlyle he will be playing with some of the more skilled players on the team. If I was a betting man, I would put money on him skating alongside Henrique and Kase to start the game.
For those interested in seeing the hands and skills of Troy Terry, I will leave you with the highlights of his shootout goals from the 2017 World Junior Championships:

Q: Calculate time from an array and convert to time zone I have an array bed_times with Time instances in UTC format:
bed_times = [
  Time.utc(2015, 12, 10,  5, 58, 24),
  Time.utc(2015, 12,  9,  3, 35, 28),
  Time.utc(2015, 12,  8,  6, 32, 26),
  Time.utc(2015, 12,  7,  1, 43, 28),
  Time.utc(2015, 12,  5,  7, 49, 30),
  Time.utc(2015, 12, 04,  7,  2, 30)
]
#=> [2015-12-10 05:58:24 UTC,
#    2015-12-09 03:35:28 UTC,
#    2015-12-08 06:32:26 UTC,
#    2015-12-07 01:43:28 UTC,
#    2015-12-05 07:49:30 UTC,
#    2015-12-04 07:02:30 UTC]

I am trying to get the average bedtime, but I'm not getting the correct result
ave = Time.at(bed_times.map(&:to_f).inject(:+) / bed_times.size)

result is
2015-12-07 01:26:57 -0800

which is not correct.  Also, I want to then convert the average time to a different time zone
I tried
Time.zone = 'Pacific Time (US & Canada)'
Time.zone.parse(ave.to_s)
2015-12-07 01:26:57 -0800

This is not correct either.

A: You have to calculate the average on the gap from midnight.
A not elegant (but fast) solution could be:
# Keep only time
bed_times.map! { |bt| Time.parse(bt.split(" ")[1]) }

# calculate the gap from 00:00:00
gap_from_midnight = bed_times.map do |bt|
  if bt > Time.parse("12:00:00")
    gap = (bt.to_f - Time.parse("24:00:00").to_f)
  else
    gap = (bt.to_f - Time.parse("00:00:00").to_f)
  end
  gap.to_i
end

# average in sec
avg_in_sec = gap_from_midnight.inject(:+) / bed_times.size

# average in UTC time zone
avg = Time.at(avg_in_sec).utc # => 1970-01-01 05:26:57 UTC (result for bed_times array)

# average in PST time zone (see note)
avg_pst = Time.parse(avg.to_s).in_time_zone("Pacific Time (US & Canada)") # => Wed, 31 Dec 1969 21:26:57 PST -08:00 (result for bed_times array)

# Keep only time
avg_pst.strftime("%H:%M:%S") # => "21:26:57" (result for bed_times array)

With your bed_times array (with the values as a string)
bed_times = [
  "2015-12-10 05:58:24 UTC",
  "2015-12-09 03:35:28 UTC",
  "2015-12-08 06:32:26 UTC",
  "2015-12-07 01:43:28 UTC",
  "2015-12-05 07:49:30 UTC",
  "2015-12-04 07:02:30 UTC"
]

the average is :

*

*05:26:57 in UTC zone

*21:26:57 in PST zone

With another array like this
bed_times = [
  "2015-12-10 01:00:00 UTC",
  "2015-12-09 23:00:00 UTC",
  "2015-10-19 18:00:00 UTC",
]

the average is:

*

*22:00:00 in UTC zone

*14:00:00 in PST zone

note: .in_time_zone is a helper from ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/TimeWithZone.html

A: As I understand, you are given an array arr that contains the UTC times of bedtimes in areas that are on PST time. You wish to compute the average bedtime.
Code
def avg_bedtime(arr)
  avg = Time.at(arr.reduce(0) do |t,s|
    lt = Time.parse(s).localtime("-08:00")
    t + Time.new(2000, 1, (lt.hour < 12) ? 2 : 1, lt.hour, lt.min, lt.sec, "-08:00").to_f
  end/arr.size)
  "%d:%d:%d" % [avg.hour, avg.min, avg.sec]
end

Example
arr = ["2015-12-10 08:58:24 UTC", "2015-12-09 03:35:28 UTC",
       "2015-12-08 06:32:26 UTC", "2015-12-07 01:43:28 UTC",
       "2015-12-05 07:49:30 UTC", "2015-12-04 07:02:30 UTC"]

I've changed the first time in this array to make it more interesting.
avg_bedtime(arr)
  #=> "21:56:57"

Explanation
Let's begin by converting these strings to time objects:
utc = arr.map { |s| Time.parse(s) }
  #=> [2015-12-10 08:58:24 UTC, 2015-12-09 03:35:28 UTC, 2015-12-08 06:32:26 UTC,
  #    2015-12-07 01:43:28 UTC, 2015-12-05 07:49:30 UTC, 2015-12-04 07:02:30 UTC]

Recalling that PST is 8 hours later than UTC, we can use Time.localtime to convert to PST:
pst = utc.map { |t| t.localtime("-08:00") }
  #=> [2015-12-10 00:58:24 -0800, 2015-12-08 19:35:28 -0800,
  #    2015-12-07 22:32:26 -0800, 2015-12-06 17:43:28 -0800,
  #    2015-12-04 23:49:30 -0800, 2015-12-03 23:02:30 -0800]

I will refer to bedtimes before noon to be "late" bedtimes and those later in the day to be "early" bedtimes. (This is of course arbitrary. If, for example, some of the individuals are shift workers, this could be a problem.) As you see, the first element of pst is a late bedtime and all others are early bedtimes.
I will now convert these time objects to time objects having the same time of day but a different date. Early bedtime objects will be assigned an arbitrary date (say, January 1, 2000) and late bedtime objects will be one day later (January 2, 2000):
adj = pst.map { |t| Time.new(2000, 1, (t.hour < 12) ? 2 : 1, t.hour, t.min, t.sec, "-08:00") }
  #=> [2000-01-02 00:58:24 -0800, 2000-01-01 19:35:28 -0800, 2000-01-01 22:32:26 -0800,
 #     2000-01-01 17:43:28 -0800, 2000-01-01 23:49:30 -0800, 2000-01-01 23:02:30 -0800]

We can now convert the time objects to seconds since the epoch:
secs = adj.map { |t| t.to_f }
  #=> [946803504.0, 946784128.0, 946794746.0, 946777408.0, 946799370.0, 946796550.0]

compute the average:
avg = secs.reduce(:+)/arr.size
  #=> 946792617.6666666

convert back to a time object for the PST zone:
tavg = Time.at(avg)
  #=> 2000-01-01 21:56:57 -0800

and, lastly, extract the time of day:
"%d:%d:%d" % [tavg.hour, tavg.min, tavg.sec]
  # "21:56:57

A class photo seems to further this reputation as a woman determined to do things her way. Unlike her peers with a penchant for puffiness, O'Keeffe poses in a dress with fitted sleeves and cuffs. Her hair is pulled straight back into a long ponytail instead of the trendy high pompadour with a big floppy bow.
With exacting detail and fierce intensity, Georgia O'Keeffe controlled how the world would see her.
Georgia O'Keeffe: Art, Image, Style, which opens December 16 at PEM, offers a radically new way to consider an artist we think we know from her iconic paintings of flowers and Southwestern landscapes. Through 125 works, the exhibition expands our understanding of O'Keeffe by presenting her wardrobe — for the first time — alongside photographs and paintings.
The exhibition is organized in sections that run from her early years, when O'Keeffe crafted a signature style of dress that dispensed with ornamentation; to her years in New York, in the 1920s and 1930s, when a black-and-white palette dominated much of her art and dress; and to her later years in New Mexico, where her art and clothing changed in response to the surrounding colors of the Southwestern landscape, right up until her death in 1986.

In addition to select paintings and items of clothing, the exhibition presents photographs of O'Keeffe and her homes by her husband, Alfred Stieglitz, and many others, including Ansel Adams, Andy Warhol, Bruce Weber and Todd Webb. These widely publicized photographs further reveal how she shaped and controlled her image even as these different artists interpreted her over time.
Before working on the exhibition, Bailly said she had no idea that O'Keeffe made many of her own clothes. In fact, the renowned modernist artist was a gifted seamstress who, not surprisingly, favored simple lines, minimal ornamentation and organic forms.
Through the curated groupings of works on view in the gallery, relationships between the sharp, precise edges in her paintings and the tiny, exquisitely rendered pintucks in her garments become apparent. The V-shape in her favored style of neckline turns up, again and again, in her abstract compositions.

Today, social media makes it easy to curate one's own public image. Scroll through your Instagram feed and you're likely to encounter friends skilled at projecting their self-identified brand. Georgia O'Keeffe was decades ahead of everyone. Every aspect of her life was driven by her unified aesthetic vision.

Early this morning Jackie drove me to New Hall Hospital for a Pre-Admission Assessment. The assessment was fine, but I was urged to chase up the urology photographic examination, otherwise it is extremely unlikely that the surgery date of 9th January will be met.
knocked on the door of the wonderful thatched house, Japonica.
BREAKING NEWS….BREAKING NEWS……BREAKING NEWS…..BREAKING NEWS……..
As I was drafting this I received a phone call in which I learned the name of the above mentioned examination. It is called a flexible cystoscopy. I am having one at 8.30 in the morning.
I left a message for my knee surgeon's secretary informing her of this.
The lorry had demolished a bus shelter on the way to the house.
A young man was clearing up the rubble.
while a drowsy foal basked in the bracken.
As so often, ponies stood on the tarmac of Roger Penny Way, one stubby little individual stubbornly refusing to budge.
I stood for a while on Deadman Hill, admiring the sunlit landscape, with its distant ponies, nestling buildings, and ubiquitous trees.
Yesterday, my Canon 300 mm lens became stuck, making it impossible to adjust the focal length. We therefore took it into Wessex Photographic at Ringwood for them to send it away for repair. There will be a delay of a couple of months for an estimate, which gave me an excuse to buy a Sigma 600 mm lens as recommended by fellow blogger, Sherry Felix.
We then brunched in Café Aroma. This meant we didn't need much more this evening. We all had sandwiches; the ladies enjoyed Jackie's leek and potato soup. Elizabeth and I drank Como Sur Bicicleta Reserva Pinot Noir 2017. I confined myself to corned beef and Branston pickle sandwiches.

I took a couple of strolls around the garden with a camera this morning. Sculpture Florence turned her back on the early light streaming from the Rose Garden.

Our red hot pokers are over now, but other kniphofias of more autumnal hues stand erect in the Weeping Birch and other beds.
White solanum continues to drape itself over the dead tree beside the New Bed.
Spiders lurk everywhere. Look closely at the close-up of the hanging basket at the corner of the Phantom Path.
This afternoon Jackie drove me into the forest.
Along the Rhinefield Road a rather young foal foraged far from his parent who looked to be away in the distance.
A little further along a forest sprite impersonated the upper section of a dead tree escaping the clutches of its parent body.
Along the Rhinefield Ornamental Drive dry layers of fallen leaves and pine cones offered a spring to my step and to those of a lone walker. A carved cone marked a route.
Passing the trough on Wootton Common we noticed that it was surrounded by cattle vying for a drink. By the time we had turned round to park the car near the animals, they were all trooping off along the moor.
Ah, not quite all. Just one diminutive creature had been left behind. In vain did this Marshmallow cow, time and again, circle the trough attempting to slake her thirst. Even her neck was just too short. Eventually she hit on a super wheeze. She tried the human spout. I wonder if the next two-legged drinkers will have any idea about who had preceded them.
This evening the three of dined on Jackie's roast beef; Yorkshire pudding; pigs in blankets; roast potatoes, sweet and normal; crunchy carrots, tender runner beans; and gravy solid with onions and mushrooms. Elizabeth and I drank La vieille ferme 2017, while the Culinary Queen drank Hoegaarden.
Early this morning Jackie drove me to Lymington Hospital where I underwent a posterior capsulotomy. This was nowhere near as nasty as it sounds. Sixty four summers ago I suffered a cricketing injury to my left eye, the story of which is told in 'Cottenham Park'. This developed in the need for a cataract operation some forty years later. Now a laser adjustment in order to reduce subsequent cloudiness. I had been warned to expect this. It was all very painless.
So comfortable was I that we continued into the forest where we encountered ponies and a foal on the lake at Pilley. Today, this former gravel pit does not look like a body of water. As recently as February ponies and cattle drank freely from water that lapped the banks and reflected the buildings alongside. That is how it has always looked to us in the past.
Today, the terrain was so dry that the young foal among these ponies would have taken some convincing that once where, like the crows, he was foraging among dried up mud, he could have enjoyed a paddle and a drink of bathwater. Much of the forest is now as parched.
This afternoon we enjoyed a visit from Margery and Paul.

The Head Gardener rarely spends much money on a plant. It was therefore an event when, three years ago, she splashed out on a very poorly, potted, plant at Redcliffe Garden Centre. She was very excited this morning to report that the Dierama Angel's fishing rod, has bloomed for the first time under the Cryptomeria tree.
The Sunday Gardener's website has an excellent page on how to grow this garden gem.
This afternoon we drove around the forest.
On Beechwood Lane near Burley we encountered a pair of cyclists photographing a group of ponies with a slumbering foal lying on the tarmac.
Spotting a bench beyond the trees under which the animals were sheltering, I walked across and perched on it to continue photographing the equine group. It was a while before I noticed that I, too, was being focussed upon.
one grey peered persistently, hungrily, at Jackie through the window of the Modus.
Quite suddenly, the whole troop, having sensed activity in the garden opposite, set off and stationed themselves, tails swishing, hopefully by the gate.
The twitching tails are the ponies' fly whisks. I'm sure I heard this animal curse those damn flies as it violently shook its head and mane instead.
Once again, I hadn't realised that Jackie was photographing me from my new vantage point on a row of logs.
Eventually, no food forthcoming, the horses set off down the lane. So did we, in the opposite direction.
Late this gloriously hot and sunny afternoon Jackie drove us to Eyeworth Pond in search of ducklings.
Cattle chewed the cud on the verges of Canterton Lane.
We made good time to the pond, but an equine trio delayed us taking the last right turn.
A delightfully friendly couple enjoying a picnic in the shade pointed out several paddles of ducks and ducklings. Strong pigments splashed over the surface of the water and the shallow bed.
Jackie alerted me to the arrival of a couple of ponies and a foal. If only I could have made the constantly twitching youngster aware that the flies he was desperately trying to escape were taking off from the flanks of the mare to which he clung.
The young lady by this time had entered the water attempting to catch tadpoles. As I took a couple of these shots I exclaimed "Ursula Andress, eat your heart out".
This evening we dined on a thick crust pizza to which the Culinary Queen added more cheese and salami, served with plentiful fresh salad.


This collection of Thanksgiving recipes features classic ingredients such as turkey, pumpkin and butternut squash. Celebrate this occasion with a delicious roast - if turkey isn't your poultry of choice, then perhaps Shaun Rankin's festive roasted and glazed Gressingham duck with spiced red cabbage and cranberries could be a great alternative.
And of course you can't forget the trimmings, for some mouth-watering sides, you could opt for one of the most classic roast potato recipes, or a root vegetable 'slaw to accompany your main. To finish off this celebratory feast, why not indulge in a chocolate fondant with peanut butter ice cream or a classic knickerbocker glory.

Three-vehicle accident sends drivers to hospital early Thursday
Published 11:01 am Friday, April 26, 2019
By Jill Holloway
Early Thursday morning a three-vehicle accident occurred on Dothan Road, where injuries were reported.
Bainbridge Public Safety officer John Walker said the driver of a Mitsubishi was coming off of Airport Road, when he stopped at the stop sign. However, after stopping he failed to yield to the oncoming traffic and t-boned a white Avalanche. The driver claimed he did not see the Avalanche. When these two cars collided, the driver of a Ford Focus was also impacted, as she was waiting to turn onto Airport Rd. She was hit head on.
Walker said all of the airbags were deployed on the vehicles and there were no signs to indicate the driver was not paying attention, because he did stop for the original stop sign.
EMS transported them to the hospital with injuries, but Walker does not know the extent of the injuries.

Q: What does "deliver to" mean? According to Oxford Dictionary, the verb deliver means:

Bring and hand over (a letter, parcel, or goods) to the proper recipient or address.

How does adding the preposition to change this meaning?

A: As far as I know, "to" does not change the meaning. You could say, "I delivered the mail to the house", "I will deliver this later", or "Have you delivered the parcel to her house?"...they all work. "To" is simply used to show where the delivery is going. So, if you aren't specifying where you are delivering something, you could just say "I will deliver it". If you were specifying the place, you could say, "I will deliver it to the house". (Excuse any grammar mistakes I may have made!)


The huge amounts of data produced by a new generation of radio telescopes will change the way we see the universe.
But once that data is scrutinised it could lead to some amazing new discoveries, as I explain in my review of the state of radio astronomy, published today in Nature Astronomy.
Over the next few years, we will see the universe in a very different light, and we are likely to make completely unexpected discoveries.
Radio telescopes view the sky using radio waves and mainly see jets of electrons travelling at the speed of light, propelled by super-massive black holes. That gives a very different view to the one we see when observing a clear night sky using visible light, which mainly sees light from stars.
Black holes were only found in science fiction before radio astronomers discovered them in quasars. It now seems that most galaxies, including our own Milky Way, have a super-massive black hole at their centre.
Radio waves from space were detected by the American Karl Jansky in the 1930s. Since then, radio telescopes – such as the 64-metre dish at Parkes, in New South Wales – increased the number of known radio sources in the sky from one (in 1940) to a few hundred thousand.
Then, around the turn of the millennium, four projects driven by new technology suddenly increased the number of known radio sources from a few hundred thousand to about 2.5 million. They were the Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (WENSS, NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS, Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-cm (FIRST and the Sydney University Molonglo Sky Survey (SUMSS in The Netherlands, United States and Australia.
For almost the next two decades there was no significant increase in this number, because nobody could significantly improve on what those four projects had done.
A group of new telescopes in Australia, The Netherlands, the United States, India and South Africa are about to unleash new technologies that will generate another surge in our knowledge of the radio sky.
Leading them, in terms of numbers of sources, is Australia's Evolutionary Map of the Universe (EMU) project, running on CSIRO's new A$188-million Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope in Western Australia.
For ASKAP, the new technology is CSIRO's revolutionary phased array feed, which allows ASKAP to view enormous areas of the sky at once.
As a result, EMU alone will raise the number of radio sources to about 70 million, compared to the 2.5 million sources discovered so far by all radio telescopes in the world over the entire history of radio astronomy.
This huge surge in humankind's knowledge of the radio sky has several consequences.
First, we expect to answer some of the major questions in astrophysics, such as understanding why super-massive black holes seem so common in the universe, how that regulates the growth and evolution of galaxies and how galaxies swarm together to form clusters.
Second, it will change the way we do radio astronomy. At the moment, if I want to know what a galaxy looks like at radio wavelengths, chances are I'll have to win time competitively on a major radio telescope to study my galaxy.
But I'll soon be able to go to the web and observe my galaxy in data already collected by EMU or one of the other mega-projects. So most radio astronomy will be done by a web search rather than by a new observation. The role of major radio telescopes will change from finding new objects to studying known objects in exquisite detail.
Third, it will change the way that astronomers do their astronomy at other wavelengths. At the moment, only a small minority of galaxies have been studied at radio wavelengths.
From now on, most galaxies being studied by the average astronomer will have excellent radio data. This adds a new tool that can routinely be used to uncover the physics of galaxies, opening wide the radio window on the universe.
Fourth, having such large volumes of data changes the way we do science. For example, if I want to understand how the gravitational field of nearby galaxies bends light from distant galaxies, I currently find the best single example I can, and spend night after night on the telescope to study the process in detail.
In future, I will be able to correlate the millions of background galaxies with the millions of foreground galaxies, using data downloaded from the web to understand the process in even greater detail.
Fifth, and probably most importantly, history tells us that when we observe the universe in a new way, we tend to stumble across new objects or new phenomena that we didn't even suspect were there. Pulsars, quasars, dark energy and dark matter were all found in this way.
How numbers can be massaged.
The ASKAP telescope in Western Australia will collect the mysterious high energy signals known as fast radio bursts with unprecedented ease.
The traces of the first daybreak in the universe have been detected by a small radio-telescope.


In order to maintain our position as a European and German company and also to successfully meet the challenges of the global market and the competition in the future, the most modern production conditions are a must for WIMA.
The highest degree of rationalisation based on a maximum of automation and combined with highly sophisticated production concepts let us take advantage of Germany as an industrial site well known for its highly skilled workers, reliability, quality and much more.
In other words the well known concept "Made in Germany".
In this context WIMA has been a pioneer over the last decades. With permanent and considerable investment absolutely new factory and production concepts have been developed which provide our production facilities with a level of flexibility required by today's market conditions.
Experts recognize WIMA factories as model factories for most up to date film capacitor production.

We discover a very old, noisy recording of an unfamiliar tune, a tune that seems archaic, belonging to a distant culture. We listen, analyze, dissect. We use it, appropriate it, and create a new piece that is meant to exhalt it. Our new piece begins with the old recording, and then abstracts it, taking it elsewhere, until we discover our own music in the noise of the old recording. Well, the story of Counterfeit Curio is quite the opposite. The "old, noisy recording," which ends the piece, is in fact a fake, created in the waning months of 2002, and the tune it holds is in fact original, new, and grows out of the music that precedes it. Rather than serving as a model, a trove of material to be used as a starting point, the tune is a postlude, an incomplete summary of its inspiration. The story of Counterfeit Curio is then not in discovering the history of the original tune, attempting to verify its authenticity, but in discovering the tune itself.

Happy Friday!!! I'm sorry it's been awhile since I've posted on here! Things have been pretty busy which I'll explain in another post. But ANYWAYS, I'm so excited to share more decor with yall.
Today I'm sharing some details on this gorgeous new frame that I recently hung from Framebridge . The story behind this picture in this frame is that it was actually free. I talked about it in a previous bedroom decor post, but basically I sign up for Shutterfly's mailing list and they send out coupons all the time. I got a coupon for a free oversized print so I got this wedding photo printed. The problem with the picture, was the dimensions. They were so strange and after I ordered it I realized it wasn't a standard photo size (probably why it was free). Basically because it wasn't a standard size, I couldn't find any frames that fit it, and if I did, they were super expensive! I ended up finding one frame that was super cheap and I spray painted it which was a fun DIY project but I knew it would be temporary because I didn't love it.
Fast forward 1 year later. I wanted to freshen up my bedroom and my cheap DIY frame was still bugging me. I knew the only way I could frame this photo was if I got a custom frame made for it. I googled "custom picture frames" and stumbled upon Framebridge. They had the best prices of any company that I looked at and it turns out one of my favorite home decor bloggers uses them, so I knew they could be trusted. They had a ton of styles that weren't gaudy or obnoxious like other custom framing companies. There were about 4 styles that I loved but I finally decided on the Newport style with a white mat. There are two ways you can go about framing your photo. You can either upload a picture that they will print and frame, or they'll send you packaging to mail in a photo that you want framed and they'll do all the framing there and send it back! Super easy! and FAST!
Framebridge was kind enough to give my readers 15% off on their first Framebridge purchase with the code "LEMONBLONDE15". Happy framing!!

Successful risk reduction here could also translate into significant progress globally through the mechanisms that we develop.
We partner with leading standard-setting and certification bodies to implement IPM as a requirement for crop certification globally, focusing in particular on adoption of reduced-risk, biologically based pest management practices, and reduction in pesticide risks to human health and the environment. We also develop and provide education and training for certification auditors, and for farmers who seek crop certification.


I am delighted you have popped in to my website! But could I ask you to go instead to my www.ernestaines website as that is my new identity for my originals music.
Please add yourself to my email list there.
To thank you for your interest and support!
I am now "Ernest Aines"
I had an amazing experience recently in Brazil for a festival and taught songwriting using "Design Thinking". Loved the whole experience in Brazil and Chile so much. The people are amazing!
Announcements - I am now the artist known as "Ernest Aines" for my new foray into the folk realm- new EP, tour, new manager and all kinds of exciting stuff planned for my own songs!
This website will be going down very soon - so please look at my Facebook , Instagram or Ernest Aines website for the latest news.
GIG ALERT! I have a gig on Thursday 29th at "Some Velvet Morning" 123 Queens Parade, Clifton Hill - at around 9 p.m. to launch "Rivermouth"
Yes folks new EP in the works - gradually will be adding videos of me singing the songs to my youtube channel.
So take a look and leave a comment and be a sharer :) That would help me out enormously!
Still busking as I can do it or not according to what else is happening in my life and I love my spot outside the chequerboard on Swanston Street, Friday and Saturday nights. I am also starting to gear up to more originals gigs and less events.
If you want me to play your wedding, I am not taking bookings far ahead as I want to concentrate on my originals career, but you could try me a couple of months before the event and see if I am going to be able to do it. (I don't tend to do parties at the moment).
In retrospect and in brief: I went on a trip to Vietnam and played over New Year in Malaysia.
Yes! I am in the top 5 busking contestants for this competition and I stand to win a really beautiful Martin guitar ( and I love my Cole Clarke but it is looking a bit more fragile now after years of hard service) and I could also play at the start of the musical "Once", which I would love to do!!
Back in Melbourne after an amazing 7 months or so busking my way through North America. I stayed most of the time in Vancouver and met some awesome people when I was staying in the hostels there. I went to New York for a couple of weeks too and then went to Montral for a few weeks before heading off to the East to Japan.
Anyway - Tokyo! The people were so friendly and generous and the food was out of this world and I have a passion for Ramen in particular now.
The French flavour and friendly people in Montreal - such beautiful art and buildings.
Going to a tea ceremony in Shanghai - although these people who seemed so genuine and lovely then proceeded to rip off all my money.
The awe-inspiring shrines in Tokyo that were so magical and ancient.
The craziness of the cartoon culture in Tokyo - manga and anime were fascinating.
Next - on to Germany in 2015!
Canada - I love you!
I have spent time in Vancouver and Montreal, with side trips to Portland and Seattle. Met some great people. I have played in parks and on the street to great receptions. People aren't afraid to show their appreciation when I play, they clap, dance and join in. Very cool.
Passport lost - necessitating a side trip to Ottowa to pick it up as it had been handed in to the Consulate.
2014 News - Canada here I come!
Over the last year I have played at events in Melbourne and Tasmania. I have been writing and recording beats. A recent trip to amazingly beautiful New Zealand, hiking, made me determined to make my dream of travelling to Canada and then Japan, learning about the country and the people, a reality. So I am all booked and visas in progress for the holiday of a life-time.
If you are in Canada or Japan, give me a cooee! So on the 14th May I am off and I will be back in Melbourne February 2015.
99 Smith Street Fitzroy from 9 p.m.

In Deity Quest, you play as a deity who has just graduated after 100 years in the Ethereal Academy. Finally, you are ready to claim dominion over your first planet, convert followers to fight for you, and support them in battle with your divine magic. You have high hopes of one day becoming the Overgod of the universe, and won't let your long-time rival beat you to it! Deity Quest has been in development since June, and was partially inspired by Pokemon-style games, dungeon crawlers, and role-playing games.
The basic idea for Deity Quest came to me when I was trying to fix some fundamental problems with a scrapped game design where you would support an AI controlled main character. The problem with that design was that there just wasn't enough for the player to do - however that's where I borrowed some ideas from Pokemon. The problems were solved by having a team of up to six followers you need to support and position, with the ability to gain new followers by converting enemies. The game is similar to Pokemon in that there's a large number of follower types to find and convert, however, the followers are all completely AI controlled, and your job is to lend your followers support using your deific abilities.
Deity Quest is also inspired by dungeon crawler games - you'll traverse through randomly generated areas and dungeons while managing limited mana and items to get you and your followers to the end. You're only allowed 6 active followers and 6 backup followers per area, and if they all die, you're thrown out of the dungeon. Likewise, running out of mana can be a big problem, as without mana, you cannot support followers or convert new followers, and followers that draw mana from your mana pool will not be able to use skills.
Finally, the story and progression are similar to a role-playing game, where you travel to different areas, follow a linear plotline and level up to gain new spells and abilities. The story is broken up into eight parts that span your adventures on the planet Aberos. Will you be able to become the Overgod?
Good - Good deities follow the ideology that every follower's life is priceless, and gives all followers a slow regeneration to help keep them alive. While good deities can convert evil followers, they are harder to convert and require a mana conversion cost of 1 mp every time they draw from the divine mana pool.
Neutral - Neutral deities believe in balance, and that both good and evil have their place in the world depending on the situation. While they give no benefits to their followers, they are able to easily convert followers of all types, and can choose to learn both good and evil spells, giving them more flexibility and options.
Evil - Evil deities believe the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, and will not hesitate to slaughter enemies and sacrifice allies to further their cause. Evil deities give all followers an additional 25% damage bonus to help them accomplish what needs to be done. While evil deities can convert good followers, they are harder to convert and require a mana conversion cost of 1 mp every time they draw from the divine mana pool.
So pick your alignment, convert followers to your side, create a balanced team of followers to fight, and support your followers as you head towards becoming the Overgod! I hope you're as excited as I am, and follow my progress on Deity Quest's IndieDB page!
Thats cool! Can we expect some special, really strong followers, like in Pokemon the legendarys?
Yes, there are 12 unique follower types that only appear once in the entire game. They are more powerful than non-uniques, although they all have their weaknesses as well. You are only guaranteed to find 3, and depending on your choices during the game, 3 will become unavailable (you'll need to play again or trade to get those). The other 6 uniques are in hidden or optional dungeons :P.

Windows 10 October 2018 Update reportedly still on just 12.4% of devices
By Rich Woods Senior Editor for North America Neowin @@TheRichWoods · Jan 29, 2019 11:16 EST with 17 comments
AdDuplex released its monthly report today, showing Windows usage based on usage of apps that run the AdDuplex SDK v2 or higher on the day of January 28. AdDuplex runs on over 5,000 Microsoft Store apps.
As we prepare for the RTM build of the next Windows 10 feature update, the current feature update to Windows 10, the October 2018 Update, is still off to a very slow pace. It's now installed on just 12.4% of Windows 10 machines, up from 6.6% last month.
Naturally, the rest decreased. The April 2018 Update is still on top at 80.2%, down from 83.6%. The Windows 10 Fall Creators Update dropped to 4% from 5.7%, the Creators Update dropped to 1.4% from 1.8%, the Anniversary Update fell from 1.4% to 1.2%, and version 1511 fell from 0.5% to 0.4%. The original version of the OS, 1507, fell from 0.3% to 0.2%, and the amount of Insiders remains stagnant at 0.2%.
Once again, we can see that the Windows 10 October 2018 Update has the slowest rollout in Windows 10 history.
Not much has changed in the list of most popular Surface devices. The Surface Pro 6 no longer sites in the number five spot, as it's been usurped by the Surface 3. Interestingly, the original Surface Pro seems to have overtaken the Surface Book 2.

How the PS4 compares to its maximum direct competitor, the Xbox One, is uncertain, as Microsoft hasn't launched precise income figures for the console. As of remaining January, it was expected that the Xbox One had bought around 20 million units. Sony additionally doesn't say how lots of those PS4s are the brand new Pro model, even though lower back in June the agency claimed that one in every 5 new sales became a Pro.
But the PS4's new milestone does compare favorably to different latest video game hardware launches. Nintendo's 3DS hand held, for example, has sold sixty eight million devices for the reason that launching in 2011, while the Switch has bought simply over 7 million gadgets in its debut year. Along with the hardware numbers, Sony also says that more than 617 million PS4 games had been bought thus far, both digitally and at retail. However, it'll require some large income spikes to surpass the PS2, presently the first-class-promoting console of all time at one hundred fifty five million units offered.
On the digital fact the front, PlayStation VR has additionally hit a new milestone topping 2 million devices offered. That number indicates that hobby is picking up; it took eight months for the VR headset to hit 1 million units, and it doubled that wide variety in just six months. In August, Sony reduce the charge of the headset, and then in October the enterprise added a slightly redesigned model. Sony also says that more than 12 million PSVR video games had been bought as of this month, but what's in keep for the future of the platform is still doubtful as of now.


Hypothesis does its level best to be compatible with everything you could possibly need it to be compatible with. Generally you should just try it and expect it to work. If it doesn't, you can be surprised and check this document for the details.
Hypothesis also supports the latest PyPy for both Python 2 (until 2020) and Python 3. Hypothesis does not currently work on Jython, though it probably could (issue #174). IronPython might work but hasn't been tested. 32-bit and narrow builds should work, though this is currently only tested on Windows.
In general Hypothesis does not officially support anything except the latest patch release of any version of Python it supports. Earlier releases should work and bugs in them will get fixed if reported, but they're not tested in CI and no guarantees are made.
In theory Hypothesis should work anywhere that Python does. In practice it is only known to work and regularly tested on OS X, Windows and Linux, and you may experience issues running it elsewhere.
If you're using something else and it doesn't work, do get in touch and I'll try to help, but unless you can come up with a way for me to run a CI server on that operating system it probably won't stay fixed due to the inevitable march of time.
In general Hypothesis goes to quite a lot of effort to generate things that look like normal Python test functions that behave as closely to the originals as possible, so it should work sensibly out of the box with every test framework.
If your testing relies on doing something other than calling a function and seeing if it raises an exception then it probably won't work out of the box. In particular things like tests which return generators and expect you to do something with them (e.g. nose's yield based tests) will not work. Use a decorator or similar to wrap the test to take this form, or ask the framework maintainer to support our hooks for inserting such a wrapper later.
Hypothesis integrates as smoothly with pytest and unittest as we can make it, and this is verified as part of the CI.
pytest fixtures work in the usual way for tests that have been decorated with @given - just avoid passing a strategy for each argument that will be supplied by a fixture. However, each fixture will run once for the whole function, not once per example. Decorating a fixture function with @given is meaningless.
The unittest.mock.patch() decorator works with @given, but we recommend using it as a context manager within the decorated test to ensure that the mock is per-test-case and avoid poor interactions with Pytest fixtures.
Nose works fine with Hypothesis, and this is tested as part of the CI. yield based tests simply won't work.
Integration with Django's testing requires use of the Hypothesis for Django users package. The issue is that in Django's tests' normal mode of execution it will reset the database once per test rather than once per example, which is not what you want.
Coverage works out of the box with Hypothesis; our own test suite has 100% branch coverage.
The supported versions of optional packages, for strategies in hypothesis.extra, are listed in the documentation for that extra. Our general goal is to support all versions that are supported upstream.
Everything mentioned above as explicitly supported is checked on every commit with Travis, Appveyor, and CircleCI. Our continous delivery pipeline runs all of these checks before publishing each release, so when we say they're supported we really mean it.
Backwards compatibility is better than backporting fixes, so we use semantic versioning and only support the most recent version of Hypothesis. See Help and Support for more information.


Having secured a place in the marathon over six months ago Martin Herson is now only days away from stepping onto the famous start line.
Months of regimented physical training and mental preparation have, by Martin's own admission, taken over his life as he prepares for the big 26-mile event on Sunday, April 24.
Martin, from Buckles Solicitors in Peterborough, is no stranger to running – having completed a number of Great Eastern Run half marathons in the city.
He said: "Physical training for the London Marathon started in earnest at Christmas. I had kept myself reasonably fit after the Great Eastern Run and am following a strict 17-week plan and sticking to it like glue, running four times a week as well as core/abs work.
Martin will be running the London Marathon in aid of MS UK and has exceeded his £2,000 target, and says he is very grateful to everyone who has helped so far or have pledged their support.
Using the Buckles staff gym to train a couple times a week, Martin is looking forward to being a participant in his first London Marathon – having last year watched his wife Kellie complete the course.
He added: "For me, the gym here is a fantastic resource and is ideal for a shorter lunchtime session or a longer after work run.
Martin hopes to complete the course in under four and a half hours, and joining him on the start line will be his nephew Lewis Darani who at just 18, will be one of the youngest runners – also raising money for MS UK.

I greatly appreciate the environment my practitioners have cultivated—challenging, reflective, and safe.
I loved Ashley and Emily! I always felt heard and understood and felt they held space for me. I of course also learned from them in early recovery, which was so imperative.
Adrianna is truly amazing! I am able to connect with her in such a way that recovery actually seems possible and closer each day. To put it bluntly, she's no BS...she tells it like it is, and will call you (me) out if/when needed, while simultaneously remaining empathetic and compassionate. Love  her!
I love my sessions with Ashley. I never feel like she tells me what to do or gives me the answers directly. I appreciate her approach through a line of questioning which helps me answer my own dilemmas.
Ashley was terrific. Always felt comfortable.provided good feedback to parents with helpful advice.
Susan Kouzel is wonderful and has done so much to help my daughter. She provides feedback weekly which is very helpful.
I am very happy with my provider. They listen and really care about my progress. They assist me in my wellness inside and outside of the clinic.
I currently see the therapist, nutritionist and RN (for meds). I find Prosperity would benefit from a centralized scheduling system so I can make appointments via a receptionist. Scheduling with each practitioner is not easy if you want to try to make an appointment with everyone on the same day.
they take very good care of me and have my best interests in mind. They never want to make me feel uncomfortable.
My practitioner has taught my daughter and me so much about what we are trying to do for her health. The end goal is obvious but the physical complexities for reaching that goal are not. My practitioner is really good at explaining the why behind the what.
Adrianna and Susan are amazing!
They normalize but also understand the extent and intensity of my fears about recovery. I look forward to sessions knowing I will be validated, and I leave feeling stronger.
My individual provider, Adrianna, was the most effective therapist I've had in not only helping me better understand myself and my eating disorder, but providing ways to recognize the triggers and how to prevent them in college. I am doing far better than where I was last year, and my relationship with my family is 100% healed.
I work with Adriana Marti and absolutely love her. She's is one of the best therapists I've worked with because i found it really easy to connect with her. She listens great and is really quick to pick up on my emotions and if I'm doubtig things or holding back and is encouraging with her advice and counsel. I can tell she really cares about my well being and knows when to be straight up and honest with me about my situations in order to help me. I love working with her, she has helped me learn to work through so much and has helped me find confidence and really figure out what i want and take a stand for it on my own.
I admire how I was able to connect with my dietician on a personal level more so than a professional level. I feel like she became more of s friend than a dietician. I felt very comfortable talking to her and never felt judged. Such a cordial and safe environment.
Heidi is awesome an given me tools to succeed in just a short period of time.
I was hesitant to join an eating disorder group..specifically binge eating because I believed that it was all my fault and my inability to just "be in control"...though i'm still working on my issues...i have found that I love coming to this group and that the facilitator and women in the group really care about each other. sometimes i just sit there saying nothing or even crying...but I always feel accepted and even loved.
I have been struggling with my son's eating/OCD issues for many years. I finally am seeing improvement, and this is the first time he actually loves his therapists and feels that they are helping him. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I really enjoy making art with my provider because it is relaxing and helps me express my feelings when I can't say them through words. The art is also a tangible thing that is representative of our session which is nice.
I appreciate it when they are able to help me see what I might face down the road, and how to navigate that well.
Adrianna is always easy to get in touch with and very responsive to our questions. She's very outgoing, friendly and welcoming.
Neutritionist always has good insight on how the body processes food which encourages my daughter.
Art therapy with Kate has been wonderful for our daughter - this is the first therapist she has really connected with!
Our provider has been critically instrumental in our daughter's recovery! We feel blessed to have found her!!!
Kate has been wonderful in helping me see additional areas that need attention in my recovery. She has brought new therapy methods and ideas into my treatment I had not used previously and was frankly not aware of. Art therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy have been very influential in helping me give myself more grace and permission to let go and/or experience my feelings, good or bad.
Felt incredibly supported and loved by Dr Weaver, Ashley and the dietitians I met.
Both registered dietitians have been excellent. The group sessions were not helpful and so the dietitians have provided excellent counseling and support.
Adrianna has been amazing. She is very in tune with my daughter's challenges, works extremely well with me by providing reinforcement and encouragement, and shows a great deal of passion and commitment.
I absolutely love Adrianna. She's personable, caring, thorough, spirited, and ever-so helpful. I can wholeheartedly say that she was (and is!) a huge part of my mental health journey in the most positive way possible. I'm eternally thankful for her. I've been seeing her for years, I wouldn't ever go to another therapist. I've recommended her to lots of friends as well! There's nothing that I could ask her to do better.
I really liked that my practitioners developed a personal relationship with me, I wasn't just another client to them.
Have had various individual providers. Best one is Adrianna - thorough, relatable, helpful, wonderful personality, awesome interactions. Great counsel!! The best!!
Prosperity is open as long as the county government is open.
