William and Jemmett
William and Jemmett Allotments is the usual name used for a complex of four allotment sites surrounding the "co-op field", seen here as the green shape between Musgrove and Christchurch Road. You can see the four areas much more clearly on the Council's website.
The large William Road part of the William and Jemmett site, seen from the far end. There are about a dozen more plots beyond the fence and track seen in the distance.
WILLIAM ROAD site is reached via a hard-core track leading from between Nos 18 and 22 William Road. Double gates open from this track to a smaller area on the right and a larger area on the left. The central grass path on the left is soft, and too narrow for vehicles, and the council has put in barriers to prevent cars being driven onto this part of the site. The track is wide enough for cars to be brought up to the gates for unloading, but the council asks that they should not be parked at the side. The track leads onto the William Road recreation ground, also known as the "Co-op Field", and council contractors need access to this.
MUSGROVE NEW SITE is reached via double gates next to lock-up garages on Musgrove. It can also be reached by walking through from William Road allotments. It has a single water point. Low lying and liable to waterlogging in wet weather.
CHRISTCHURCH ROAD site is behind houses on Christchurch Road. It can be reached via a small gate on a footpath from Christchurch Road. This footpath then leads onto the playing fields, from where a double gate leads into the allotments. The council is very clear that vehicles should not be brought onto the field to access this allotment, however, as the field is damp and damage to the turf is likely to result.
However, care should be taken not to damage the turf especially in wet weather. It is also possible to walk onto the playing field from Jemmett Road, down a footpath alongside Jemmett Road allotments. There is never any parking in Christchurch Road, and parking on William Road is often very restricted, so Jemmett Road may be the best place to park in order to reach Christchurch Road allotments.
JEMMETT ROAD is a small site of only a few plots. It is reached via a footpath from Jemmett Road, almost opposite the bowling club. From this two narrow gates lead onto the plots. It has single water point.
There are only three noticeboards on the William/Jemmett complex; one by the double gates on the left as you come in from William Road, one by the large gate onto the playing field in the Christchurch Road site, and one next to the roadside fence on Jemmett Road.
WATER POINTS with tanks and taps are available on all sites here. There is one on Musgrove New and three on William Road, two on the larger section and one on the smaller. There is one tap on Jemmett and one on Christchurch.
The soil here is heavy clay. Before being set up as allotments, it was sheep pasture. Though fertile, it is inclined to lie very wet after rain, and not just in the winter. The wettest part is the larger section of William Road, and parts of Musgrove, which can flood after a prolonged wet spell. On the plus side, the soil is fertile and holds on to water and nutrients well. Jemmett Road is sunny and exposed, while Christchurch has problems with overhanging trees. Most of William Road and Musgrove is sunny and open, though there are high hedges which affect some of the plots on William Road. Some plots are shaded in the morning, which is less of a problem; others lose the midday or afternoon sun. You need to visit the site on the ground to see which plots on William Road are most affected.
The site is generally quiet and there is quite a lot of wildlife. Both pigeons and foxes can cause problems. The foxes, though they do tend to dig things up, also keep down vermin. Thefts and vandalism have been an intermittent problem in the past but are not especially remarkable.

Hero's welcome for La Quinta girl battling cancer
A La Quinta girl currently fighting pediatric cancer is home in the Coachella Valley. 5-year-old Riley Rose Sherman received a hero's welcome at Palm Springs International Airport.
A cheering crowd met Riley Rose, who had been in New York undergoing treatment.
Many supporters wore princess-themed hats. "I think every little princess deserves an amazing welcome home so why not?" said Tanya Moreno, who organized the cheering section.
"Right now, we're going to go make some dreams come true and we're going to have the Christmas of our lives," Riley Rose's mother Kristin said. The family is making plans to go to Hawaii with the Make a Wish organization.
Sherman battles stage four neuroblastoma. It's a cancer often found in the small glands on top of the kidneys (adrenal glands). It can develop in the belly, chest, neck, pelvis, and bones. Children ages five or younger are most commonly affected.
Sherman was diagnosed with the cancer in August of last year and doctors said it was aggressive and she had been undergoing treatment ever since.
Community members have poured their hearts for this girl through fundraisers to help her fight the disease and raise awareness about neuroblastoma and other childhood cancers.

Verifying what many of us have already surmised, the new FBI Director confirms that the FBI has morphed into a weaponized tool, full of deep state 'fixers' who are loyal to Clinton, Kerry and Obama. Known as the 7th Floor Cabal to some.
FBI Director Wray indicated that these holdovers are working behind the scenes, in many cases, with the CIA and State and against the interests of the FBI.
Newly-minted FBI Director Christopher Wray is not impressed with the current state of the FBI. In fact, he's downright downtrodden.
Wray, selected by President Donald Trump to replace fired ex-director James Comey, has shared deep misgivings about the current FBI with trusted insiders since his Senate confirmation.
Wray is suffering the hangover from the curse of the 7th Floor Cabal, the shadowy and rogue group of Hillary-Clinton-backed State Department brass who dictated U.S. policy in private meetings during her tenure and beyond.
Translation? The FBI has become a political tool, especially under Comey and his deputy director Andrew McCabe who have both served at the pleasure of Clinton's and John Kerry's State Department.
The once-respected FBI is now merely a weaponized agency infected with Deep State fixers who have employed the resources of the Bureau for political gain and payback, according to several sources.
This is hardly a big secret. Read any news headlines.
Does Wray believe FBI agents are compromised and in some cases corrupt? Insiders said Wray does privately acknowledge there is corruption inside the Bureau and at high-level posts. Publicly, Wray has challenged his agents to resist corruption and dark forces.
Wray wants to return the FBI's ability to function as an independent law enforcement agency, but navigating Clinton's, Kerry's and Barack Obama's loyalist holdovers who are working behind the scenes in many cases with the CIA and State — and against the interests of the FBI — is easier said than done.
The Deep State's tentacles run deep. Even in the FBI.
McCabe for instance is a widely considered among colleagues as a political hack at best. There is little reason to hash out his sordid past here, especially as it relates to sandbagging the Hillary Clinton email investigation, while accepting nearly $700,000 from her associates to fund his wife's political campaign.
But why then is McCabe still serving as deputy director?
FBI insiders said Wray will replace McCabe in due time.
Insiders say Wray is very methodical and will need to employ such strengths to turn the FBI around.
That might not happen any time soon.
After several weeks on the job Wray's assessment of the post-Comey FBI was that the Bureau is functioning even worse than he heard through the grapevine of his Justice Department contacts, FBI insiders said.
And now add the Las Vegas shooting investigation debacle to the growing list of dysfunctional FBI operations.


Don Lemon is Engaged! Who is His New Fiance, Tim Malone?
Are wedding bells ringing for news anchor Don Lemon? Well, we certainly hope so because he just announced that he is engaged to his boyfriend, Tim Malone.
The CNN anchor took to Instagram to announce his engagement and give the details of how it all went down. Apparently, Malone actually proposed to Lemon on his own birthday, and he used their dogs to help.
We are used to Lemon being on our television screens and in the news, but who is his husband-to-be, Malone?
Malone grew up in Water Mill, New York and is now a real estate agent for the Corcoran Group.
Though he works in real estate now, Malone also has a background in media like his beau.
He graduated from Boston College in 2006 after studying history and journalism, according to People.
After graduating, Malone went to work as a part of the NBC page program in NYC where he worked as a production assistant on the Today Show. He worked at NBC until 2014 before moving on to jobs in sales at USA and Syfy channel.
From there, Malone worked at Billboard for three years before joining the Corcoran Group in 2018.
How long have Lemon and Malone been together?
Lemon, who is usually secretive about his romances, went public with his relationship with Malone by kissing him on-air on CNN's New Year's Eve special last year.
The couple has been dating since 2016 and met in New York.
In 2011, after many years in the public eye, Lemon told the world he was gay in an interview with the New York Times.
At the time, he spoke of his struggles as a black gay man.
His coming out was prompted by the upcoming release of his book, Transparent.
The book was actually just supposed to be a short, inspirational piece that was not at all personal.
But once he started putting pen to paper, he realized that he had so much more to say and it was time for him to start living in his truth.
He went on to talk about how seeing more happy gay people in his youth would probably have helped him be comfortable with himself sooner.

I've spent my life in various aspects of music making: touring and recording drummer, song writer, programmer, producer, recording engineer and mixer.
During this time I've had the great fortune of working with some of our most accomplished and successful music producers like Mutt Lange, Chris Thomas and Dave Stewart. Watching and learning from these men as well as from some of the most influential artists of our time has been, and still is, a deep priviledge.
One thing that always excites me, and has always made me love what I do, is learning. If at the	end of a day I know something new or better, then that day has been good.
Going forward I'm developing workshops with the intention of passing on some of the knowledge I've gained over the years. My hope is that I'll be able to pay forward some of the techniques and experiences I've had the good fortune to pick up along the way.

Healthy Aging The pins and needles started in her right hand. Carrie MacLean was a 28-year-old newlywed, working in a high-stress job as an IT team lead.
Carrie MacLean and her family.
Within four days of feeling pins and needles in her she lost functionality in her hand. She couldn't even pick up a pen. But then she gradually returned to normal, like the nightmare never happened. Nearly two years later, she had another attack and received a diagnosis: multiple sclerosis (MS).
MacLean has the most common variation of the disease — relapsing-remitting MS — which is characterized by attacks, followed by remission. The danger is the disease might deteriorate to secondary-progressive MS and increasing disability, which happens to about half of people within 10 to 20 years, according to the MS Society of Canada.
According to the blog by Dr. Karen Lee, An Inside Look at MS Research, there is, however, a silver lining for people with progressive MS as well as relapsing-remitting MS— early treatment. Research suggests that there is growing evidence showing that treating MS as early as possible can have a significant impact in long-term treatment response, quality of life, and disease progression in people with MS.
Ten years have passed for MacLean and you can't tell she has MS. People don't see the pins and needles. She doesn't limp. "I don't look like I have MS. My life is relatively normal," says MacLean. She lives in Waterdown, ON with her husband and two daughters, who she had after her first MS attack. She does yoga and attends an MS support group. But life has changed.
When she realized stress and lack of sleep were her triggers for attacks, she left her job to raise her two girls.
The first MS treatment she tried made her anemic. The second required daily injections. Terrified of needles, her severe panic attacks meant it wasn't an option. When a new oral treatment option was coming to the Canadian market, she knew that was the treatment she wanted.
"The research is changing so fast. You need to be your own best advocate," MacLean said. She brought her research to her neurologist and he teased her. "He said, 'How do you know so much?' I said, 'Because I've done my research.'" Carrie experienced mild side effects like flushing and nausea, which stopped after two months, and she has been happily on the drug ever since.
Her advice for new MS patients is that they do their own research on legitimate websites. "In doing that, you become less scared," she says.

White House sets up virtual Chamber of Commerce
Neil Munro White House Correspondent
November 16, 2011 11:46 PM ET
The White House is setting up its own virtual Chamber of Commerce, where it will offer services to businesses and solicit executives' advocacy of new regulations and marketplace interventions.
The new facility is an online "forum" hosted by the White House Business Council.
The forum is a "place where business owners can continue the conversation, share ideas and stories, and stay in touch with the White House," according to a Nov. 16 announcement found at the White House Blog.
"We can't wait to take action to get our economy moving again. Share your ideas for what concrete actions that President Obama can take right now to create jobs and grow the economy, without waiting on Congress to write a bill or draft legislation," said the announcement, signed by Ari Matusiak, the executive director of the council.
The forum announcement also promised a new website, dubbed BusinessUSA, "where businesses of all sizes can access services and information to help them grow and hire." The site is to go online early in 2012.
The new effort comes as administration officials try to jump-start the stalled economy one year before the 2012 election.
It also follows three years of political wrestling with the U.S Chamber of Commerce, whose chief, Tom Donohue, has vigorously led diverse business opposition to many White House priorities that are intended to curb the autonomy and profitability of companies.
A chamber-like office at the White House is an unsurprising reach for Obama, who has worked with congressional Democrats to extend government's reach over much of the U.S. auto industry, the financial sector and the health sector.
Obama's efforts to incorporate the energy sector and most workplaces under federal regulation, however, were derailed when some Democrats allied with GOP legislators — and the U.S. Chamber — to block his proposed carbon-tax bill and his "card-check" union bill.
The card-check bill would also have given federal arbitrators the legal authority to decide wages and working conditions in many companies.
The chamber says it represents the interests of 3 million companies, of which 96 percent have 100 employees or fewer.
The forum announced Wednesday is part of a stepped-up effort by the administration to mollify or co-opt business leaders around the country who are skeptical or hostile to the administration's market-managing agenda.
"Since April, the White House Business Council has held over 500 events with business owners and entrepreneurs in all 50 states, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico," said the Nov. 16 post on the White House Blog that announced the new forum.
On Nov. 15, for example, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood met with 20 top executives from Atlanta and Gwinnett County, Ga. The attendees included medium-sized companies, as well as leaders from Delta Airlines and the Home Depot, according to the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce.
"The Obama Administration and the U.S. Department of Transportation are committed to working with our partners in the private sector to ensure our infrastructure networks evolve to meet the needs of America's future generations," said LaHood.
The business council is different from the president's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, now chaired by G.E.'s chief, Jeffrey Immelt.
Instead the council is an office formed in 2009 to coordinate White House outreach to business. It has arranged trips by more than 100 senior administration officials.
The council was intended to ensure that administration officials "are getting out of Washington to hear directly from American business leaders, and that the ideas they are hearing across the country are brought back to Washington, furthering the Administration's commitment to grow jobs and increase American economic competitiveness," according to a White House document.

'I'm Coming After You': Matt Gaetz Shares A Horrible Death Threat With Tucker


Turns out, it was all a mistake. Those who feel entitled to dictate the religious boundaries women may set and how they may describe those boundaries have asserted themselves and The Wild Hunt has apologized. The author, Terence P. Ward, has resigned as staff writer for The Wild Hunt, thus far without a public statement.
Many people on social media condemned The Wild Hunt's retraction of the article as "cowardice." I think this is unfair. I used to follow this news site regularly, and I believe the misogynistic attitudes of those at The Wild Hunt are sincerely held. It seems to be editorial policy, in deference to "feelings," to proscribe the use of any word or phrase (even in a quote) that describes the class of people greeted with the words "It's a girl!" when they are born. Referring to womyn-born-womyn, biological women, genetic women, etc. is verboten, thus depriving the conversation of any language that could be used to fairly discuss divergent women's views. This is where Ward apparently came aground.
Targeting groups for close scrutiny against purity tests, along with accompanying persecution, is, by the way, the very definition of a witch hunt. In the Middle Ages it was old women who were targeted; in the McCarthy era it was people in the arts. Today, if you have not received reprisals for doing or saying anything conflicting with transactivist beliefs, you are probably not a radical feminist, a Dianic Witch, or a lesbian.
One thing that surprised me in doing research for this article is the number of Pagan blogs still in operation that have scrubbed their sites of posts condemning Dianic Witches. It really does look like the tide is, slowly, beginning to turn. Who knows, maybe in the near future even The Wild Hunt will decide it's time to change history, scrub their site of their sins, and pretend none of this ever happened.


The HC Mustang strength and conditioning program is designed to provide our competitive athletes the means by which they develop attitude, work ethic, mental toughness and discipline.
Athletes will train consistently, sensibly and systematically over a designed and designated period of time in a safe, clean and professional environment to help enhance performance and decrease injury.
Lee Fiocchi is the founder and director of Dynamic Sports Training and trains HC athletes on campus. He graduated from Eastern Illinois University with a B.S. in Physical Education. He trains all sports and ages, ranging from seven years old to elite and professional athletes.
Lee's diverse background enables him to better understand the process of developing a complete athlete. He has adapted to a multitude of different environments and has found success in each of them. His athletic career started with a variety of different sports, but his undying passion for football continued in junior college at College of the Siskiyous and Walla Walla Community College. Lee earned the grades, developed his body, became a team captain, led the defense statistically, helped lead the team to a bowl win, and earned a scholarship to Eastern Illinois University, where he helped lead them to an Ohio Valley Conference Championship in 2001 and their highest national ranking.
There are several time options to choose from this year, including an all female class! Athletes who sign up before May 6th will get an additional $50 off their summer training - paying $300 instead of $549 - and receive a free dri-fit shirt! Click the link below for details!


In The Void, Timothy S. Johnston has cemented himself as the current master of the scifi dark detective story. There is a little of Agatha Christie, a little of Isaac Asimov, and more than a little of John Campbell, but with all due respect to those luminaries, Johnston has his own voice that in some ways transcends them. Johnston writes a taught, fast-moving, and claustrophobic story that pulls the reader in and doesn't let go.
This is the third book in the Kyle Tanner series, and while the book is fine as a stand-alone, I would recommend reading them in order. For me, the most satisfying aspect of the series was to read as Tanner evolves from the "yes, sir, no, sir" duty-bound investigator to the man who while still performing his duty, begins to question his place in the grand scheme of things. I wish Johnston had spent more time showing us the reasons for this other than mentioning "conversations with dissidents," but even from inference, this was a great aspect of the entire three-book storyline.
As with the other two books, Tanner has to unravel a murder mystery while isolated from most outside help--although this time, he has his lover Shaheen with him, and she is a great benefit to his investigation. To make matters more difficult, the "murder" may or may not be a murder. There is no tangible evidence that the deceased was in fact murdered. Tanner was only on the scene due to a breakdown on his ship while transporting a brutal murderer to face justice in another system when he is drawn into the situation, one that hides much more than a mere murder.
As in the other two books, Tanner is attacked more than once and faces obstacles thrown his way at every turn. I have to point out that the attack making use of gravity was one of the most unique methods of attempted murder I have ever read, and one I enjoyed reading about very much.
I was able to figure out most of the whodunit before the reveals, but not totally. Johnston was able to level a few surprises that caught me off-guard. The ultimate end may have been expected, but that didn't make it any less satisfying. In a way, the ending was like welcoming an old friend, someone I was expecting with anticipation and happy when he arrived.
As always, Johnston has done significant research in the science in scifi. Most of the science rings true, especially in the field of biology. This is scifi, however, and so there are some jumps that are beyond modern understanding, but the scientific foundations of those jumps are sound. We don't know if the advancements will ever be possible, but they are certainly plausible based on our modern grasp of science.
I am sad that this book evidently closes the story of Kyle Tanner. I enjoyed all three books, and I look forward to reading the next series and discovering where it will take us.


This week a customer in Asia asked why one of our new epoxy fluxes was not allowing the package-on-package (PoP) device to be picked up from the dipping tray. Obviously, the vacuum nozzle must have sufficient force to extract the PoP package from the PoP flux reservoir (yellow, below).
where A is the measure (fraction) of atmospheric pressure and denotes how good the vacuum is (zero vacuum is 0.0atm : hard vacuum is 1.0atm).
There are some uncertainties with this approach: How does the vacuum vary across the nozzle diameter? Does the 5mm diameter probe used in the IPC test equate to a complex CSP (chip-scale package) bottom surface, with many rounded solder bumps or solderspheres? And so on. But, at least the model puts us in the right ballpark. Just to give you a feel for how this works, the second figure shows some results. Note that scenario (iv) is the only one showing problems (negative force balance).
For many of the newer applications, component sphere/bump immersion to just deeper than the bump height (say 100-110%) is desirable. If the customer dips the whole bottom of the component into a standard (non-epoxy) flux, this potentially opens up a lot of issues including reliability (SIR; electrochemical migration); component displacement (skewing) during reflow; as well as difficulty in picking up the component from the tray. The solution to this series of issues, is to choose either a standard flux with a high pre-reflow SIR, such as our PoPflux 30B, or a low-volatile content epoxy flux.
I'll have more to say on epoxy fluxes in a couple of months, as we are currently nearing the end of extensive testing at several customers in Europe and Asia.

The solar powered plane trying to fly around the world
While the rest of the world news is pretty depressing, as per, something rather uplifting is happening about 15,000 feet above our heads. A solar-powered plane is flying all the way around the world, using absolutely no fuel at all.
The Solar Impulse 2 began its journey in Abu Dhabi on Monday 9 March, and its 35,000 km trip is expected to take about five months (yes, five months; it'll travel at similar speeds to a passenger car). Pilots Bertrand Piccard and Andre Borschberg, both Swiss, will take turns manning the plane.
Here are the Solar Impulse 2's specs, for the aviation enthusiasts among you:
It's equipped with 17,248 solar panels on its wings;
It has a top speed of 43 miles an hour (it travels even slower at night to conserve energy);
Energy is then stored in four lithium-iron batteries;
The plane has a wingspan of 72 metres; around 10m wider than a Boeing 747 or 777;
It only weighs about 5,000 pounds, roughly the same as a car.
If it succeeds, this will be the first fuelless flight around the world. Whether the technology will make its way onto passenger jets is another question, however: this model's success relies on its incredibly low weight. It would be quite a bit heavier if you added a load of tourists heading for Malaga.
Here's the plane over Oman:

Rhiannon Giddens | Freedom Highway
Freedom Highway—Grammy Award winner and 2017 Grammy nominee Rhiannon Giddens's follow-up to her highly praised debut album Tomorrow Is My Turn, was released by Nonesuch Records on February 24, 2017. The record includes nine original songs Giddens wrote or co-wrote while she and her band toured after Tomorrow Is My Turn's 2015 release, along with a traditional song and two songs from the Civil Rights Movement: "Birmingham Sunday" and "Freedom Highway," from which the album takes its name.


The living observer moves with a sense of mounting panic, through a world of the dead…We experience a sense of the uncanny when we gaze at garments that had an intimate relationship with human beings long since gone to their graves. For clothes are so much part of our living, moving selves that, frozen on display in the mausoleums of culture, they hint at something only half understood, sinister, threatening, the atrophy of the body, and the evanescent of life. (Wilson 1).
The element of the uncanny reminded me of the Viktor and Rolf retrospective exhibition at the at the Barbican Gallery in London in 2008 in which porcelain dolls of various sizes were used to present the designer duo's fifteen years of work. The installation played with scale and was somewhat like a trip to Alice in Wonderland, which was exactly the intent of the exhibition designers (Evans 6).
Viktor and Rolf had used dolls in their collections before. Dolls were part of an early collection called "Launch" presented at the Torch Gallery in Amsterdam in October 1996 in which they presented their hopes and dreams for the future in the form of a miniature design studio, runway show, photographic shoot and boutique. Dolls reappeared in their subsequent collections as well and became the locus of their retrospective at the Barbican.
Over the weeks to come, I will explore the idea of the uncanny, dipping into Freud's essay of that name and as well as researching related topics like mannequins, dolls and the museum. The final outcome will be a visual response to this material. I hope you'll join me on my creative journey!

National emergency with Iran continues
NOTICE from President Barack Obama:
– – – – – – –
CONTINUATION OF THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY WITH RESPECT TO IRAN
On March 15, 1995, the President issued Executive Order 12957, which declared a national emergency with respect to Iran and, pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706), took related steps to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States constituted by the actions and policies of the Government of Iran. On May 6, 1995, the President issued Executive Order 12959, imposing more comprehensive sanctions on Iran to further respond to this threat. On August 19, 1997, the President issued Executive Order 13059, consolidating and clarifying the previous orders. I took additional steps pursuant to this national emergency in Executive Order 13553 of September 28, 2010, Executive Order 13574 of May 23, 2011, Executive Order 13590 of November 20, 2011, Executive Order 13599 of February 5, 2012, Executive Order 13606 of April 22, 2012, Executive Order 13608 of May 1, 2012, Executive Order 13622 of July 30, 2012, and Executive Order 13628 of October 9, 2012.
The actions and policies of the Government of Iran continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. For this reason, the national emergency declared in Executive Order 12957 must continue in effect beyond March 15, 2013. Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency with respect to Iran declared in Executive Order 12957. The emergency declared by Executive Order 12957 constitutes an emergency separate from that declared on November 14, 1979, by Executive Order 12170. This renewal, therefore, is distinct from the emergency renewal of November 2012.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.

Proposed alliance may include Likud, NRP, National Union, Yisrael Beiteinu.
Likud MK Uzi Landau, a contender for the party leadership, is considering a proposal to create a four-party political bloc made up of the Likud, the National Union, the National Religious Party and Yisrael Beiteinu, one of his advisers told The Jerusalem Post on Sunday. Preparatory meetings are being held to explore this idea should Prime Minister Ariel Sharon leave Likud, the adviser said. The idea was first proposed over the weekend by Yisrael Beiteinu head Avigdor Lieberman. National Union head MK Benny Elon said he was meeting Monday with Landau to discuss the matter. Elon said he had also spoken about the idea with MK Binyamin Netanyahu, who is also vying for Likud party leadership. A Netanyahu adviser, however, told the Post that Netanyahu's sole focus right now was the Likud. Elon said he was cautiously supporting Lieberman's vision of a combined bloc because he was waiting to first see if Sharon was really leaving the Likud. Elon also believes that there is a danger of voter apathy when the party becomes too large. One idea being considered regarding how such a bloc would work would have each party keep its institutions, but with the bloc operating within the Knesset as a single faction. Each party could have its own platform, but the common denominators among them could be more flexible. One example of this could be attaching a required referendum to any proposals for more land withdrawals. "It doesn't mean the Likud has to adopt all of our platforms," said Elon. MK Aryeh Eldad (National Union), who moved to the Samaria settlement of Sa Nur to protest its evacuation this summer, said that he thought the move was a good idea. "I think it's a great idea to combine with what will be left of the Likud, Lieberman's party Israel Beiteinu and the NRP for one right-wing party to block the possibility that (Labor party leader) Amir Peretz or Sharon will be able to create a government," Eldad said. A lesson learned from the passage of disengagement is that small parties allow for a prime minister like Sharon to manipulate the political scene to his advantage. The details of how the political bloc would work are still vague, said Eldad. But even though he was among the more vehement protesters of disengagement, he believes one compromise point would be an agreement that no territory would be relinquished without public approval through the use of a national referendum. MK Gila Finkelstein (National Religious Party) said she would be interested in exploring the possibility of creating a voting bloc with the Likud if Sharon leaves the party. "We are at the start of discussions on this subject," she said. More immediately pertinent, she said, was the question of an NRP and National Union merger under the banners of education and Jewish identity. It's important in this next election to create a new house for the "religious Zionist movement," she said. Elon said that he has been pushing for the unity of the National Union and the National Religious Party. The National Union with Yisrael Beitenu has nine seats which in the next election he believes would grow to 14. With the NRP, he believes it could get upwards of 20 seats. Still, Elon said he had also looked into a four-party bloc of Shas, the NRP and United Torah Judaism, the combined power of which would create a body of more than 40 seats. However, a Shas spokesman said the party was not looking at such a combination at this time. In the next election, Elon said, "Our agenda will focus on the Jewish identity of the state of Israel. We believe that the land of Israel is not a political debate between hawks and doves about territory and real estate. It's a spiritual debate about what Jerusalem, Jericho and Hebron says to you."

Mockingjay Part 2 Poster
May 14, 2015 by Marina Liao
If you were waiting to catch a glimpse of Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2, the wait is over! For the poster, that is. Panem has been looking grim since we last left Katniss in Mockingjay — Part 1, and this teaser poster, which was released at the Cannes Film Festival, has the same tense vibe. Katniss, in her signature rebel outfit, stands behind her sister, Prim (Willow Shields), and both gaze into the distance with stoic faces. Although the image doesn't reveal much about the upcoming film, it does highlight the pair's strong relationship, which comes into play in the final movie. Check out the image below before the movie hits theaters on Nov. 20.

WAEC Releases the WASSCE Timetable for 2020
By 247Hitz Chief Editor On Jul 9, 2020
WAEC Releases WASSCE Timetable for 2020 | Earlier this year, the West Africa Examination Council (WAEC) postponed the examinations that usually take off in May/June to test the memory of final year students both in Junior High Schools (JHS) and Senior High Schools (SHS) due to the covid19 pandemic. This led to the postponement of the WASSCE timetable for 2020.
After a long period of time close to 4 months since it was postponed, The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has finally released the timetable for the August 2020 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
READ THIS: List of YCEO 50 Young CEOs in Ghana 2020.
The timetable has been submitted to the Ministry of Education and examination is expected to begin on Monday, July 20, 2020, with Project Work for Visual Arts candidates, while the theory papers will start from August 3, 2020, until September 5, 2020, when the five-week-long examination will be brought to an end with Principles of Cost Accounting and Technical Drawing.
The new WASSCE Timetable for 2020 covers 60 subjects in all. These subjects are made up of 4 core and 56 electives. The subjects cover the seven programs offered at senior high school (SHS), namely, General Arts, General Science, Business, Agricultural Science, Visual Arts, Home Economics, and Technical.

Connecticut Sues to Block Con Ed-Northeast Merger
LCG, Dec. 5, 2000--Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, a man who has built his career on harassing Northeast Utilities, has filed suit to prevent the acquisition of that utility by Consolidated Edison Inc.
In a suit filed in the Superior Court of Connecticut in New Britain, Blumenthal charged that Con Edison's high rates and poor environmental record would be exported from New York to Connecticut in the merger were allowed to go through.
Blumenthal charges lots of things. A couple of years ago he was charging Northeast with a terrible environmental record, saying the utility had created an "unlicensed nuclear waste dump" at the site of its shuttered Connecticut Yankee nuclear power plant in Haddam Neck.
That got the U.S. Environmental protection Agency and the state Department of Environmental Protection interested so they investigated. It turned out there wasn't enough radiation found to compete with a full set of dental x-rays.
Yesterday, Blumenthal asked the court to overturn a decision by Connecticut regulators to approve the Con Edison-Northeast merger, subject to a laundry list of conditions that the utilities said were likely to kill the transaction anyway.
The two utilities are themselves having second thoughts about the deal, in light of conditions imposed by Connecticut and some other states.

Woman Arrested for Allegedly Sending Poison to President Trump — A woman suspected of sending ricin through the mail to President Donald Trump was arrested Sunday after she attempted to cross into the U.S. through Canada. Authorities say she was carrying a gun when she tried to cross the border in New York. Investigators say the letter containing the ricin was sent from Canada, and was intercepted at a government facility that checks all mail sent to the White House. The Trump administration has not yet commented on the events.
Presidential Happenings in Perú and Bolivia — Bolivia's interim president, Jeanine Añez, announced on Thursday that she was quitting the presidential race, putting an end to a messy year-long campaign during which she was consistently falling behind in the polls. Añez, who replaced Evo Morales, says she will redirect her efforts to uniting the conservative vote. This week in Perú, President Martín Vizcarra survived an impeachment vote. This ended an arduous congressional battle which was threatening to send the country into a constitutional crisis. The opposing party's motion to impeach Vizcarra for alleged obstruction of justice fell short of the two-thirds majority required for removal.

To Watch: In the spirit of honoring the life of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg who died this past Friday, it seems timely to recommend watching the documentary "RBG"— a biographical film that portrays the life and career of Justice Ginsburg. Chronicling her life from her Brooklyn upbringing to her college days and career as a professor of law, viewers are introduced to Ginsburg as a multifaceted woman who dedicated herself to the fight for justice. The film also serves as a glimpse into her life off the bench, as a teacher, mother, spouse, friend, and in more recent years— pop culture icon.
"RBG" is available on Hulu and Amazon Video.
This week's Monday Briefing was brought to you by Emmy Freedman and Angely Montilla.

Єлизавета Баварська (), ( 1478 —  15 вересня 1504) — баварська герцогиня з династії Віттельсбахів, донька герцога Ландсгут-Баварії Георга I Багатого та польської королівни Ядвіги Ягеллонки, дружина пфальцграфа Рейнського Рупрехта.

Від 1496 року була призначена спадкоємицею Ландсгут-Баварського герцогства, через що, після смерті Георга I у 1503 році, почалася війна за Ландсгутський спадок. Померла у вересні 1504 року до її закінчення. Її сини отримали частину герцогства, відому надалі як Пфальц-Нойбург, решта — відійшла Баварсько-Мюнхенському герцогству.

Біографія
Народилась 1478 року у родині спадкоємного герцога Ландсгут-Баварії Георга I Багатого та його дружини Ядвіги Ягеллонки. Мала старших братів Рупрехта та Вольфганга і молодшу сестру Маргариту. За іншими даними, серед дітей Георга та Ядвіги згадуються лише доньки Єлизавета та Маргарита.

На момент народження Єлизавети герцогством правив її дід, Людвіг IX, але вже у січні 1479 року він помер, і батько успадкував повноту влади. Серед резиденцій родини були фортеця Траузніц, замок Бурггаузен, Інґольштадтський замок, які голова сімейства розширював та укріплював протягом свого володарювання.

Всупереч сімейним договорам (1392 та 1450 років) династії Віттельсбахів, які передбачали взаємне правонаступництво за відсутності нащадків чоловічої статі, Георг у своєму заповіті від 19 вересня 1496 року зробив спадкоємицею Єлизавету. Тоді ж майбутнім чоловіком герцогині був названий хтось із старших синів її дядька, курфюрста Пфальцу (Людвіг, Рупрехт або Фрідріх). Незважаючи на таємність, про порушення договорів дізнався герцог Баварсько-Мюнхенський Альбрехт IV, потенційний наступник Георга на троні, і виступив проти.

У віці близько 21 року Єлизавета взяла шлюб зі своїм 17-річним кузеном Рупрехтом Пфальцьким, пфальцграфом Рейнським. Наречений був третім сином курфюрста Пфальцу Філіпа і раніше обіймав посаду князя-єпископа Фрайзінгу. Весілля мало укріпити позиції нареченої, як спадкоємиці герцогства. Вінчання пройшло 10 лютого 1499 у Гайдельберзі. У подружжя з'явилося четверо синів:
 Георг (1500—1504) — близнюк Рупрехта, прожив 3 роки;
 Рупрехт (1500—1504) — близнюк Георга, прожив 3 роки;
 Отто Генріх (1502—1559) — пфальцграф і герцог Нойбургу у 1505—1557 роках, курфюрст Пфальцу у 1556—1559 роках, був одруженим з баварською герцогинею Сусанною, дітей не мав;
 Філіп (1503—1548) — пфальцграф і герцог Нойбургу, був одним із потенційних наречених Марії Тюдор, одруженим не був, дітей не мав.

Георг, не будучи певним, що Єлизавета втримає герцогство, у 1501 році всиновив Рупрехта, а восени 1503 — призначив його своїм намісником і передав йому важливі замки Ладсгуту та Бурггаузену. 1 грудня він помер, а 13 грудня у Ландсгуті відбулися збори ландтага, куди Альбрехт IV відправив послів з претензіями на спадок. З відмовою Рупрехта, у лютому 1504 зібрався Імперський камеральний суд, який у квітні офіційно проголосив Альбрехта спадкоємцем, що поклало початок війні за Ландсгутській спадок.

У серпні 1504 року Рупрехт помер від дезинтерії. Єлизавета продовжила бойові дії та зайняла кілька міст. Пішла з життя за три дні після єдиної великої битви даної війни, битви при Венценбасі, 15 вересня 1504 року. Була похована у церкві монастиря Зелігенталь у Ландсгуті. Пфальцькі радники продовжили війну від імені її малолітніх синів.

Війна за Ландсгутський спадок завершилася Кельнським арбітражем 30 липня 1505 року. Вцілілі сини Єлизавети отримали у володіння новостворений Пфальц-Нойбург. Опікуном до їхнього повноліття був призначений Фрідріх Пфальцький, який доводився їм дядьком.

Nirvana Quotes
Top 10 Nirvana Quotes
Punk is musical freedom. It's saying, doing and playing what you want. In Webster's terms, 'nirvana' means freedom from pain, suffering and the external world, and that's pretty close to my definition of Punk Rock.
Freedom You Pain World
He who gives away shall have real gain. He who subdues himself shall be free; he shall cease to be a slave of passions. The righteous man casts off evil, and by rooting out lust, bitterness, and illusion do we reach Nirvana.
Man Evil Illusion Free
Nirvana is not the blowing out of the candle. It is the extinguishing of the flame because day is come.
Day Candle Flame Come
Growing up, I was a little hippie kid. I went to some good concerts... Amnesty International with Bob Dylan and Tracy Chapman... The best concert I ever went to was this one at the Cow Palace my freshman year in college on New Year's Eve. It was Pearl Jam opening for Nirvana opening for Red Hot Chili Peppers.

When Nirvana became popular, you could very easily slip and get lost during that storm. I fortunately had really heavy anchors - old friends, family.
Family Old Friends You Storm
Your mind is nirvana.
Mind Your
If Nirvana had remained a small, underground punk rock band, Kurt Cobain would still be alive. And he'd probably be living in Seattle, getting kind of fat and balding, be relatively happy and producing records for other people.
Happy People Fat Small
Bodhisattva is enlightened in the Buddhist philosophy, religion, tradition. He's enlightened. It's fine - I don't really fight it - but many people use the term 'zen' and terms like 'nirvana,' 'enlightenment' in an almost superficial way. It's not that complicated.
Religion People Tradition Fight
He who walks in the eightfold noble path with unswerving determination is sure to reach Nirvana.
Determination Path Reach He
Hip-hop kind of absorbed rock in terms of the attitude and the whole point of why rock was important music. Young people felt like rock music was theirs, from Elvis to the Beatles to the Ramones to Nirvana. This was theirs; it wasn't their parents'. I think hip-hop became the musical style that embraces that mentality.
Attitude Music Style People
For Nirvana, putting out their first major-label record was like getting into a new car. But the runaway success was like suddenly discovering that the car was a Ferrari and the accelerator pedal was Krazy Glued to the floorboard.
Success Car New Car New
When it comes to grunge or even just Seattle, I think there was one band that made the definitive music of the time. It wasn't us or Nirvana, but Mudhoney. Nirvana delivered it to the world, but Mudhoney were the band of that time and sound.
Music Time World Think
This is my own little rock theory: In my mind, Nirvana slayed the hair bands. They shot the top off the poodles.
Mind Hair Own My Own
You know, Nirvana used to start rehearsals with the three of us just jamming. For, like, a half an hour, just noise and freeform crap - and usually it was crap. But sometimes things would come from it, and some songs on Nevermind came from that, and 'Heart Shaped Box' and stuff on 'In Utero' just happened that way.
Heart You Sometimes Start
My mom is awesome. She's really young. My mom is 40, and she raised me listening to Nirvana and Courtney Love and Coldplay, Gin Blossoms, The Cranberries, and stuff. Like, my early, early memories are of being a little kid running around in floral skirts and Doc Martens when I was, like, three.
Love Memories Me Mom
I seriously do not think Nirvana is grunge.
Think Seriously Grunge
Stone Temple Pilots, Bush, and Silverchair are taking the simplest elements of Soundgarden, Nirvana, and Pearl Jam and melding them into one homogenous thing.
Temple Stone Them Thing
Music is really important to me; Kurt Cobain is important to me. Hearing Nirvana was pretty life-changing.
Me Music Important Pretty
Dropkick Murphys get me going, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana... plus, all the regular hip-hop stuff.
Me Hot Red Hip-Hop
There's a reason why the Foo Fighters don't blast out Nirvana songs every night: because we have a lot of respect for them. You know, that's hallowed ground. We have to be careful. We have to tread lightly. We have talked about it before, but the opportunity hasn't really come up, or it just hasn't felt right.
You Respect Opportunity Night
Usually, when Nirvana made music, there wasn't a lot of conversation. We wanted everything to be surreal. We didn't want to have some contrived composition.
Music Conversation Want Everything
I owe everything to Nirvana. But I can't let that overshadow the future. For the first few years, I didn't even want to talk about Nirvana. Partly because it was just painful to talk about losing Kurt but also because I wanted the Foo Fighters to mean something.
Future Losing Painful Want
I stopped doing drugs when I was 20. I was finished with drugs before Nirvana even started.
Doing Started Even Before
I know a lot of people who wouldn't be comfortable with everything that comes with being in a band as big as Nirvana. The thing that I don't understand is not appreciating that simple gift of being able to play music.
Simple Music People Gift
If I ever felt like I was getting lost in the hurricane that was storming around Nirvana, I'd just go back to Virginia.
Back Go Lost Like
From the time that 'Nevermind' came out in September of 1991 to the time that Nirvana was over, it was really just a few years, and a lot happened in those few years.

At its general meeting held on Thursday, November 23, 2017, the Communities' Alliance against Displacements (CAD) denounced the spate of mass evictions perpetrated in the name of development. In unison, they are seeking localized solutions to the urban challenges that they face. CAD general meeting brings together representatives of informal communities and interest groups in Lagos committed to undertaking individual and collective action against forced displacement. Since it was formed in March 2017, CAD has launched series of campaigns demanding access to basic amenities and improvement in the housing/living conditions in their various member-communities. At this meeting, participants from Ifeoluwa, Badia-East, Otumara, Ifesowapo, Isale-Akoka, Okobaba-east, Ago-Egun, Badia-West, and Mowo Phase II were in attendance.
The meeting started with the sharing of 'progress reports' from the various member communities. During this time, representatives share information regarding the most-pressing (urban) challenge residents of their communities are facing, and seek ideas from other communities about how to resolve them. Oko-Baba-East residents are experiencing worsening insecurity due to the activities of rival youth gangs and the inability of the Nigeria Police to curtail their activities. The bad state of road networks in the area, and the incessant fire outbreaks in the sawmill, are other pressing concerns. In Otumara, two Baales (traditional rulers) are competing for the traditional stool, causing division and internal strife among local residents. From insecurity and environmental hazards in Okobaba-East, to the leadership tussle between two Baales in Otumara, the experiences shared often draw connections between urban poverty and lack of access to basic services.
After the 'progress reports' comes the 'action-planning' stage on the agenda. At this time, representatives brainstorm on how to nip these challenges in the bud. In response to the situation in Okobaba, CAD members resolved to petition the Bariga Local Council Development Area (LCDA). The petition will suggest strategies for environmental regeneration which can bolster tourism in the fishing communities. In particular, CAD called on the LCDA to rehabilitate the fishing market which is an abandoned Better Life project, an initiative of former First Lady, Maryam Babangida. Okobaba representatives were also encouraged to consider community policing as part of a broader effort to support the Nigeria Police in securing homes and businesses.
CAD general meetings usually have two parts: the community interface and the outreach program. During the second part, SPACES FOR CHANGE shared its plans to draft an eviction guideline for Lagos State. The Guidelines will prescribe the procedure for conducting mass evictions when necessary in a way that minimizes human rights violations and the hardship often associated with forced displacement. Again, community representatives decried the role of security agencies during evictions, the length of notices, the lack of resettlement and compensation for evictees, among others. Communities want security operatives to be more humane and to act with a high sense of professionalism. It is typical for state officials to paste contravention notices on buildings, requiring local populations to move in 8 days. Officials often destroy legal and illegal dwellings after the 8-day period without taking into account the historical status of the dwellings and their inhabitants. They argued that it is practically impossible to vacate, or move entire households within 8 days. The economic recession complicates the situation. Accordingly, community representatives recommended that adequate notices (and compensation) must precede eviction exercises done in the public interest.

Larry Lessig Is Claiming 20 Republican Electors Could Vote Against Trump
Jason Hopkins
Larry Lessig, the constitutional law professor at Harvard University and former candidate for the Democratic nomination, has made quite the claim.
Lessig is heading "Electors Trust," an anti-Trump group that is focused on flipping enough presidential electors to deny Donald Trump the presidency. The group is going so far as to offer pro bono legal advice to Republican electors mulling whether to ditch Trump. Lessig is saying that 20 Republican electors are considering not voting for the president-elect.
"Obviously, whether an elector ultimately votes his or her conscience will depend in part upon whether there are enough doing the same. We now believe there are more than half the number needed to change the result seriously considering making that vote," he stated.
While this sounds concerning, Lessig offers no proof. In fact, his claim is in complete contradiction with a GOP vote count operation underway to ensure Republican electors stay loyal to Trump.
Only one Republican elector, Chris Suprun, has publicly stated he will vote against Trump despite his state of Texas overwhelmingly choosing him.
Given this reality, it's basically impossible for these anti-Trump efforts to succeed. Of the 538 members of the Electoral College – Suprun is just one of 306 Republican members. Trump only needs 270 to win. If we dived into the realm of impossibility and deducted 20 votes from Trump's column – he'd still have 286 votes. That is still 16 votes over the threshold.
Guys, the Electoral College will pick Trump on December 19th.

Rutland Bonsai Therapy started off initially working a single piece of land with the intention of taking on several more once "Plot 1" was up and running. The initial design for the future of the company was based on a Phased work plan. Phase 1 involves setting up and starting 3 plots of land.
During all Phases Clients and Service Users will gain Life Skills and practical knowledge that will help them work their own gardens or help other people with their gardens while gaining the therapeutic benefits of working the land and with plants in a relaxed setting.
They will gain hands on knowledge of planning and execution of how to grow from seed, what is required by plants to grow and develop, pot on, troubleshoot deficiencies and deal with pests and diseases all while enjoying the benefits of building things and growing things.
While working with the Bonsai trees they will benefit from the stress reduction and calming effect they can have on you and learn how to find their inner calm and push aside anxiety or stress by focussing on something that requires them to think and be creative while considering the trees needs.
Distraction, creation, relaxation – being the key to Bonsai Therapy!
Plot 1.
Is the outdoor work area, used to grow Bonsai Trees, Flowers and Vegetables. Also where much of the initial building and woodworking will be done to build the items needed to develop Plot 1, then Plot 2 and 3.
View the Plot 1 Project.
As soon as Plot 1 has been turned into a working piece of land; Plot 2 will be started.
Will be the indoor work area. This area will be used to propagate from seed, keep tender plants out of the elements while they develop and hopefully also enable us to keep Exotic, Tropical or Subtropical Flowers, Plants and Trees.
It will also allow us to work with our clients and Service Users in inclement weather and during the off season under cover and allow some temperature control for Client and Service User comfort.
View Plot 2 as it was when I first took over the plot.
Plot 3 will be designed to be an "Off the Grid" gardening experience, using as much Green Technology as possible to supply it with Water, Heat and even Power hopefully. Using reclaimed materials and technology this Project will hopefully feature Rocket Mass heating, Solar Harvesting and run in conjunction with an Aquaponic system that not only waters the plants that grow in it, but deliver fertiliser while doing so from the main sump of water that houses its own Fish. The waste from the Fish being pumped from their containment tank and fed through Plot 3 via micro irrigation, leaving behind the nutrients and nitrogen from the Fish waste and the water eventually being filtered by the plants and a Veggie filter so when it is returned to the Fish tank it has been scrubbed clean.
This will be the culmination of the 3 stages of Rutland Bonsai Therapy Phase 1 – initial Business setup.
Once Plot 3 has reached a completion point where it is up and running, the company will execute Phase 2 of its business strategy and look for a site to start Phase 2. An area of land ready for cultivation with an space that allows indoor workshops and an office area close enough to the working land to enable powered and mains supplied water all in once place.
Phase 2.
Will allow the building of a small purpose built "on site Nursery" to grow from seed all the plants, trees and other stock needed; as well as the workshop to start work on the creation of the Therapeutic Gardens and also the Sensory Gardens. The aim will be to encourage Clients and Service Users to be supported as they get involved and enjoy the benefits of all the plants and trees surrounding them while the Nursery and Workshops are built and set up.
Then once the Nursery and Workshops are up and running the hard landscaping and ground works will commence to build the initial Gardens, the first priority being at least One Therapeutic Garden and One Sensory Garden. The potential at this point to add a Snoezelen could be of great benefit to the Region.
As these are built and developed; Rutland Bonsai Therapy will see if it is possible to establish an on site Coffee and Tea house, with the possibility of light snacks and cakes being on offer also. This again being an area that can be featured as another Day opportunity for Service Users and Clients to get involved in. Again offering Life Skill support and creating positions of potential employment for people.
If space and funding allows, we would also like to have an indoor area designated for teaching courses such as Basic Computer Use, how to create your initial Internet ID so you can use Electronic Mail, basic Internet Surfing lessons like how to set up your Web Browser, add favourites and use Search Engines; through to more advanced demonstrations on Blogging, PC Security and even How to Build your own Computer from components. This space could also be used for other subject experts or teachers to use for their own specialities, broadening the spectrum of what we can offer and utilising the space to it's potential.
As I have always thought…
If you do not dream you can never move forward.
If you are going to dream, dream big.
If the first phases are possible then the final phase will be the most challenging but rewarding.
A full scale working Bonsai Nursery, Water Feature Gardens with Aquatics centre, Hot House, and full cafe to fit in with the Therapeutic/Sensory Gardens and Snoezelen. Complete Woodwork and Metalwork units, for building what the site needs as well as crafting items for sale. While also teaching hands on practical skills and encouraging artistic ventures made of Wood and Metal. Also allowing custom orders to be made or for us to engage in charitable causes by building items needed in the community or supporting other Social Enterprises, Charities or Trusts.
Staffed with a mix of Support workers and Day Opportunities candidates and a haven for Rutlands Vulnerable Adults or Children and Young Adults and people with Learning Disabilities along with full access for Disabled visitors with their Carers, Families or Support Workers. As well as the general public, residents of Rutland and potentially as a Tourist attraction.
Hopefully with many of the staff coming from people who came to Rutland Bonsai Therapy for Therapy and now have come back to support others as they received theirs. Students becoming teachers and sharing their Life Skills and experiences to help others as they were once helped.
Much as others helped me to overcome my long term health issues; so now I try and help others.
Full Circle Thinking, Karma…

"During my brief test of Fathom Mono, I was blown away by the sound quality of its engine, and the sheer fun of its patching workflow."
Bedroom Producers Blog. BPB is a daily updated blog for music producers, featuring news about free music making software, VST plugins, audio samples and loops.
Many synthesizers are advertised as alias free. If you place a spectrum analyzer on the plugin track it reveals a frequency profile which gradually tapers off into the upper frequencies, proof that your synth is using raw waveforms and internally filtering the oscillator.
For an oscillator to be called alias free, the output must be constructed from partials, a series of sin waves, which control the frequency content prior to filtering.
Filtering should be your choice, not built into your oscillators.
Shown above is the Fathom saw tooth at 128 partials in the frequency domain. This unedited screen capture shows a high frequency noise floor well below -130 dB in relation to the amplitude, or less than one part in one million. Notice that there is no aliasing, imaging or artifacts after the last partial.
We achieve this taking your edited waveform, running it through an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) to derive the component partials, and then storing the result accurately in a buffer of 16384 samples for each oscillator single cycle. Then at run time the oscillator fetches samples from this buffer for any varying detune frequency using nonlinear interpolation between buffer points.
The result is a clean waveform like the one shown above.
Clicking results from starting a waveform in mid-cycle which creates an abrupt change in amplitude from one sample to the next. Many software synth's have the clicking problem because they do not take steps to avoid it. Clicking also happens when any modulation which effects the waveform passes through the vertical edge of an envelope while the oscillator is in mid-cycle.
Fathom contains real time logic which virtually eliminates clicking and enforces perfectly smooth oscillator note transitions and modulations.
Even with oscillator voices detuned, the processor keeps track of the relative phase of each oscillator, and at the start of each note plays each oscillator virtually with no volume for a few microseconds until the beginning of its waveform. In this way all voices maintain their relative phase but never start in the middle of a waveform.
Shown above is a screen capture of a Fathom note transition with a single oscillator sin wave and detune set to one voice in free running mode. If a sequencer note stops and a new one starts at the same point in the host sequence, Fathom will make the frequency transition in mid-cycle, emulating a single oscillator hardware synth, even when running in polyphonic mode.
Above is a Fathom note transition, single oscillator sin wave, with detune set to eight voices in retrigger mode. All voices finish their cycle in the terminating note and start at the beginning of their cycle in the new note.
Single oscillator sin wave, detune 8 voices, free running mode, polyphonic.
Single oscillator sin wave, detune 8 voices, free running mode, monophonic with gilde.
