I am a former prisoner. I was born in Cape Cod Hospital sixty-six years ago. My parents divorced in 1958, four years after my birth. My alcoholic mother remarried my stepfather who was physically and verbally abusive to my three siblings and me. A tragic auto accident caused my two-year-old stepbrother to suffer brain damage. In eighth grade a settlement from a lawsuit enabled our family to buy a home in Scituate and move out of my grandmother's house in Harwich. Four years later I graduated from Scituate High School
After graduation, I chose to move out and live with my own father in Concord, CA. In California, I worked at a gas station where I met a girl and moved to Berkley for five months. This lasted a year. In 1975, I moved back to Cape Cod and moved in with my Grandma. She was a superb cook and taught me so many recipes. Even today at HnH at Newton Street residence, I volunteer to cook most evening meals.
One weekend while staying at a lodge run by my stepmother, she offered me a job where I met a man form Stowe. He hired me to manage a lodge in Stowe, VT. I loved being in ski country.
Then Grandma became seriously ill, and I moved back to Harwich to care for her. Now it was my turn. I worked at a local golf course. I met with Judy who had been a high school friend. When Grandma died in 1979 at eighty-nine years old, I married Judy. Then I launched my own business, Shoreline Roofing and Siding. It was successful until I got into cocaine and alcohol. Shoreline suffered, and between that and substance abuse, Judy and I divorced.
On June 12, 2012, I went fishing late one evening and returned home at 2:00 A.M. Mistakenly, I entered a neighbor's house thinking it was mine. I woke the older residents and scared them. They called the police who arrested me for breaking and entering with intent to commit a felony. I insisted that it was all a mistake: I had not been under the influence as the police and later the judge believed. Apparently, I had been in a fugue state which is an amnesia state of mind and caused me to wander into a house I thought was mine. I was poorly defended by my public defender. I was tried, convicted, and sentenced to twenty-one months in Barnstable County Correctional Facility. After serving twenty-one months, I was discharged. A week later I was diagnosed with prostrate cancer. I underwent radiation therapy and now have been cancer free since. Then I found a job managing vacation cottages on the beach in Truro. I was required to remain alcohol and substance free by probation with random urine tests which I subsequently violated. The judge sent me back to BCCF for another five months. While there I met a woman volunteering from R.E.C. (Residents Encounter Christ) who steered me to Homeless not Hopeless after being in a shelter in Hyannis. Today I'm an assistant manager at Newton and grateful for the roof over my head, the use of my grandma's recipes, and the company of warm, friendly, and caring men.

BRITAIN TODAY
Tharindu Perera July 28, 2022 BRITAIN TODAY2022-07-29T00:37:45+00:00 CURRENT AFFAIRS
JOHNSON RESIGNS BUT REMAINS AS CARETAKER
Saro Thiruppathy reports on the resignation of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson after key ministers resigned in the face of multiple crises
Prime Minister Boris Johnson seemed to have a tight group of friends who were holding key portfolios in his cabinet. Blind loyalty was the order of the day and he stood by them when they faced accusations of wrongdoing – and they turned a deaf ear to his lies and seemingly faulty memory.
But the pressure was rising and friends such as the Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak, Health Secretary Sajid Javid and Home Secretary Priti Patel finally turned on him as they came under continuous fire for tolerating his unethical behaviour.
However, even though the media made mincemeat out of Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab, he remained loyal to Johnson to the bitter end.
The tsunami of resignations began on 5 July with Sunak and Javid throwing in the towel first. They were quickly followed by a flurry of letters and by the time those were tallied, the resignations from government officials stood at nearly 60.
Some cabinet officials such as Patel and Transport Secretary Grant Shapps decided to stay on in government, but urged Johnson to resign while others stayed faithful to him and didn't jump on the bandwagon.
Eventually, on 8 July as a result of enormous pressure and a mutiny within his party, Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson resigned from the post of prime minister much against his will.
MASS EXODUS So what led to this mass resignation by Tory Party members and Johnson's defeat?
Five incidents contributed to Johnson's downfall. MP Chris Pincher was accused of sexual misconduct on 29 June and this led to the emergence of several other allegations. Initially, Downing Street claimed that Johnson was unaware of any specific allegations about Pincher when he appointed him as Deputy Chief Whip early this year.
But it turned out that Johnson had lied about not knowing this; he then apologised for appointing Pincher as Deputy Chief Whip and thought the matter was put to rest.
But in reality, it was this incident that triggered the Tory exodus.
Boris Johnson has been prone to lying and then casually apologising for his lies, claiming ignorance or a faulty memory. He kept getting away with it because his cabinet echoed his lies, and continuously proclaimed their supreme confidence in his integrity and ability 'to get the job done.'
'Partygate' was the topic on British minds until the Pincher affair dislodged it briefly. In April, Johnson was fined for breaking lockdown rules when he attended his birthday party in the garden of No. 10. He had even hosted a 'bring your own booze' party during the first lockdown.
The Brits are furious because they were made to follow strict lockdown rules and not even allowed to attend the funerals of loved ones while the man who made the rules broke them without a care in the world.
Johnson lied robustly to parliament and said that he was unaware of any party at his official residence. Then when it turned out that he was the chief guest at one, the PM maintained that "all guidance was followed completely" at No 10.
He then apologised to parliament for getting it all wrong and not realising that he was indeed breaking his own rules. Johnson is being investigated by the Commons Privileges Committee on whether he "knowingly misled parliament."
The cost of living has risen sharply due to inflation going up to 9.1 percent in July and many Britons are finding it hard to make ends meet.
Tory MP Owen Paterson was to be suspended for 30 days by a House of Commons committee because he was accused of breaking lobbying rules and attempting to help companies that were paying him.
But Johnson and his cronies in parliament voted to hold the suspension and set up a new committee to oversee how the investigations were being carried out. Eventually, due to pressure, Paterson resigned – and once again, Johnson apologised to parliament for his error of judgement.
Even though his theme song was that he got Brexit done, it turns out that Downing Street has not been able to focus on Brexit and generate ideas on how to proceed. His former adviser Dominic Cummings has accused him of not being steady while others say he lacks integrity, competence and vision.
And more recently, the Tory Party has faced by-election defeats that speak louder than words.
WHAT'S NEXT Johnson will stay on as caretaker prime minister until a new PM is chosen from within the Tory Party. It's expected that the new prime minister will be named in early September.
So even though Boris Johnson has resigned, he still occupies No. 10.
Interestingly, Rishi Sunak is vying for the post of prime minister while Sajid Javid threw his hat into the race but subsequently withdrew.
The two remaining candidates Sunak and Liz Truss have one round to win the race, and the winner will be announced on 5 September.

Media Release: Cairngorm windows receives top industry accolade
INVERNESS-based firm Cairngorm Windows has received a top industry accolade from the British Safety Institute.
The business, which employs 80 people across Inverness, is the second company in the UK to achieve European technical standards, qualifying the business for a coveted CE marking for its escape doors.
This accolade from the British Safety Institute has only been awarded to Cairngorm, along with a firm in Ayrshire, with the first English applicants going through the appraisal system.
It comes as Cairngorm has supplied 150 windows and 24 doors for new houses in the Falklands Islands.
The Highland firm will now pursue a UK-wide market for its emergency exit fitted hardware with its European Commission certificate.
Gaining CE status is a significant marketing boost for Cairngorm as it puts the finishing touches to a £350,000 extension to its Longman Road headquarters – which will include setting up a fitted kitchen division for the first time.
Managing director of Cairngorm Windows, David Dowling, said: "We are in the process of recruiting eight more staff to cope with the extension and the news of our joining the elite group with CE marking, something we have worked hard to attain, is a superb way to put us on the run-in for the extension opening on April 25.
"The CE status officially recognises the technical quality and safety of the PVC escape doors which we have developed here in Inverness. "It significantly strengthens our efforts to attack a UK-wide market and it emphasizes that customers can come to us for the most safe and secure products.
"Our heritage as a 60 year-old family-owned business is of huge importance to us, and is why we focus on the highest quality systems. This European accolade for escape doors is a perfect fit into that focus."
All windows and doors manufactured by Cairngorm at its base in Inverness are now kitemark licensed, and meet or surpass the accreditations required for local authority projects as well as the commercial and domestic markets.
Mr Dowling said: "We've had a highly positive reaction from the Falklands Islands to our latest £50,000 contract for there. As it is one of the windiest places in the world the islands need windows and doors that are totally wind and waterproof, and we've been supplying them for several years, generating regular repeat business."

"He was everything. For three years, he was what I knew best - and now I couldn't even tell you what city he was in." With a pang of sadness, and another ache of loss, that thought crossed my mind several months ago, immediately followed by the harsh reality that this was not the first time I'd felt this way.
The first time an ex became a stranger, I didn't realize it was happening - that it had already happened - until it was too late. I had held on for so long, certain our outcome would eventually change. Years ticked by, and suddenly he was just that: a stranger. All of the details of what his love felt like, what it looked like, were gone. This time around I felt determined - obligated even - to retain the memories, to stash those intimate details deep where they wouldn't get lost. I couldn't just let my brain overwrite three years of data. The brain and the heart have a curious way of helping you to mend, though. No matter what memories and details you try to hide deep and lock beneath layers of birthdays and holidays, first times and other big events, your body cleanses and recovers from the hurt and promptly deletes whatever it can. Your brain reclaims that space for new love.
In any relationship, there is a gradual process of getting to know each other: the goals and aspirations, the bad habits, the quirks and pet peeves and all of the infinitesimal nuances that create intimacy between two people. The making of a stranger is much less gradual. A while after we broke, all at once, all of that vanished. Sure, I can remember the big things like the fact that he lived and died for Chicago Bears football and hated scallops after a particularly bad bout of food poisoning. But what was the first thing he did when he woke up in the morning, or the last thing he did before bed? I couldn't recall. The routines of my former partner, the routines that had shaped and balanced my own practices, were simply lost. How had I adapted since the split? And how had I been so unaware of it? I had grown into the spaces he had once occupied without hesitation or much effort at all.
Nearly a year apart has dissolved anything remaining. There's the bittersweet realization that I don't know what his current favorite song is, what his current apartment is like or what his go-to weekend T-shirt is anymore. He is a stranger. I used to know him, but I don't know him now. Not anymore. Bits and pieces of the hurt still linger. Unexpected things will still draw up the insecurities and rejection from that most recent spell of heartbreak and set off a downward spiral, albeit a short lived one. As their frequency and intensity wane, I cherish those spirals to remind me of why I had to leave him behind and why he has to be a stranger again.

Almost everyone in my dorm is leaving Korea next Monday so it's a very depressing mood lately. Everyone is sending their shopping goods back home and busy packing up all their things. I didn't bond with most of them anyway so I'm happy I don't have to say goodbye to my friends just yet :) However, I also did some packing today as I'll fly to Japan on Monday! Can't believe the time is finally here...the last two weeks have been terribly slow. I got many requests for showing how the Etude House's Dear My Wish lipstick in RD302 looks like when worn and I shall deliver.
So it's not as dark as in my swatch but also not as red as in my pictures. I always get frustrated when colors don't show up true to life no matter what kind of lighting I'm using. It is a beautiful darker red shade that you can rock on the night out with your girls or to any other special occasion!
The lipstick itself is very smooth - in fact almost too smooth! Direct application is very tricky and can get messy easily so please take my lip brush advice to heart. I would also recommend a good base + lip pencil to make this last longer. Due to its smooth consistency it wears down soon if you drink/snack a lot - I couldn't manage to drink my tea without leaving a lip stain behind every single time. So if you don't mind reapplication and a bit more care when it comes to lipsticks you will get an absolutely non-drying lipstick in a gorgeous color. If you are drinking tea like me 24/7, than this will be your special lipstick for days when you feel like putting in the effort, but it probably won't be my go-to lipstick.


It's almost a science. One or two smart veteran professional players combined with three to four green rookies who have hardly seen a competitive game before — it's a formula employed by SK Telecom T1 in 2013 with PoohManDu and Impact. It's been attempted more frequently in China as well with teams like Unlimited Potential end Edward Gaming. Each team needs a fair amount of new and promising talent to prepare for the future, but the guidance and experience of a veteran is also important.
Vici Gaming takes it to an extreme. VG has a long history of cycling through rising stars and discarding them quickly if they don't seem to fit. Qiao Gu's TnT, LGD Gaming's GODV, and Master3's Smlz have all played on Vici Gaming for a period of time before the organization decided to let them go. VG's quest for undiscovered talent they can raise has caused them to constantly reinvent their roster.
This year, Vici Gaming finally grabbed a much needed core. Choi "DanDy" Inkyu and Cho "Mata" Sehyong, main contenders for the MVP award at the 2014 World Championship, form a core unit for VG and inject much-needed experience into the lineup. From there, the team builds around them.
Rifling through the solo queue and amateur talent in China is a monumental task. The top server in China, Ionia, features a slew of potentials, and 16 LSPL teams and layers of amateur teams follow them up. Outside DanDy and Mata, Vici Gaming have signed two top laners, one jungler, two mid laners, and three AD carries this season, all of them, Vasilii excepted, with minimal competitive experience.
After rotating out many of these players and a controversial role swap that moved DanDy, regarded by many as the best jungler in the world last year, to the top lane, Vici Gaming have finally found a lineup that makes them look like a legitimate threat in the gambit for spots at the World Championship. The team has retained the vision control and objective-based play that made them strong in Spring, but they've upgraded the talent lineup in their mid and AD carry positions.
Chen "World6" Yutian appeared in Week 3 of 2015 LPL Summer as the team's starting jungler. Wang "Carry" Zujing left the team, officially as a result of health reasons. DanDy wanted to move to the top lane position as a challenge, and VG picked up a rising talent from solo queue to take his place in the jungle.
On Gragas, World6 has developed into a possible jungle giant of the LPL. On other champions, his performances have been less impressive. When he doesn't select his preferred Gragas, Vici doesn't fall apart.
Jungler World6's increased time on the team has allowed him to develop more synergy and adopt some of the warding habits of DanDy and Mata. In Spring, I referred to Vici Gaming as "DanDy's Ducklings." It seemed as if Carry and mid laner Wang "Hetong" Bin followed DanDy around the map as he looked for picks. Mata often appeared as if he wanted almost nothing to do with either of the solo laners and preferred to save his peel abilities for DanDy and, on occasion, Li "Vasilii" Weijun.
World6 is Mata's duckling — in a reluctant way. Mata roams and helps World6 secure vision as a stand-in for DanDy. The two work together in two man ganks that don't always go well. But it seems that World6 is a new player that Mata doesn't begrudge. As a result, Mata's own performances, while inconsistent and often seemingly tilted, have improved.
Pi "Xuan" Xiaoxuan is the third in a line of AD carries this season. He spent time in Spring as a substitute mid laner for ex-sister team Unlimited Potential. It's unclear whether he's the best AD carry the team has seen or if Mata's increased motivation makes him look better. Either way, he seems to maximize his damage more often than his predecessors and gets caught less frequently.
Peng "Peng" Yibo should have started for this team earlier. The only feasible excuse for Peng to have not started this summer is that he struggled to improve himself and only very suddenly found both a personal and technical breakthrough. Peng executes well, aims skillshots, and improves Vici Gaming's team fighting significantly more than Hetong.
DanDy isn't a better top laner than Carry yet, but he plays within the confines of his own accepted pool, and his communication with Mata allows his Teleport plays to go off well. He fits the position of roleplayer with enough of a mechanical upside to engage well and coordinate a team fight. He's not a top-tier top laner in LPL, but he understands his limitations well.
Though the team has made small individual upgrades, the biggest change is in cohesion. With increases in mechanics, ability stacking and objective rotation from fights and picks have improved. When World6 moved to invade OMG's jungle, DanDy and Peng or Peng and Mata would collapse pre-emptively. They would arrive before their laning opponents, giving Vici Gaming their advantage to take the set.
Mata's growth has occurred in the realm of patience. He plays much more for the team, taking the initiative to peel indiscriminately. He spams laugh less. He picks fewer troll champions. At the LPL venue, Mata can be heard screaming calls over the crowd. It's almost as if he actually wants this team to succeed.
Perhaps because of the relative newness of the roster, Vici Gaming's team fighting still lacks finesse. LGD, even with poor engage against several forms of peel from Vici Gaming, won team fights from 8,000 gold behind in Game 2 and only lost out because of Vici's over-whelming early lead.
Vici excels best in finding an advantage, through first blood or a turret, and pressuring it. When they have an advantage, they won't let it go unless the enemy team can lock them down. LGD vs Vici Gaming is the meeting of support masterminds, but LGD are full of proven veterans who play much better from behind. LGD have the upper hand, and they should win, even if the series is close.
Falling to LGD isn't the end of the line for Vici Gaming. In some ways, losing is better than winning. The winners of tonight's games go on to face fourth seed Snake, and the lower will contend with third seed Invictus Gaming. Snake effectively coin print their opposition when they're on form. Invictus Gaming's more straightforward top lane early focus should be easy for Vici Gaming to pick apart this time around.
As it stands, regardless of how Vici Gaming does in the Playoffs or Regionals should they advance, their approach to roster building has given them something almost no other team has: a long-standing foundation. By exposing so many young players to perhaps the strongest map control duo in League of Legends history, their developments have been tuned. Even if DanDy and Mata are bought out or break a lengthy contract after the World Championship, Vici Gaming has a future they can build from. That's something I can't say for every team in LPL featuring ex-Samsung stars.
Vici Gaming might not be the best team in LPL now, but they have the best head start in the seasons to come.

Los Angeles cops release cause of Tiger Woods crash
"There is zero braking on that data recorder"
196 Shares Tweet
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department released the cause of the serious accident that left Tiger Woods hospitalized with severe injuries.
Law enforcement said that Woods was driving 87 MPH, nearly twice the speed limit of 45 MPH. As previously reported, there was no indication that Woods hit the brakes as he was losing control of the car.
"There is zero braking on that data recorder," Capt. James Powers said.
Powers said that Woods likely mistook the gas pedal for the brakes.

TMZ reports that Woods has waived his right to privacy after authorities said last week they would not elaborate on the investigation's findings, citing privacy concerns.
As CrimeOnline previously reported, Woods veered off the road while driving an SUV in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, on February 23. Emergency crews had to use the Jaws of Life to extract Woods from the crumpled vehicle. The golf legend is reportedly now recovering at home after weeks in the hospital.

Home Advocacy & Policy Does Different Equal Deficient? Young Advocate Says No!
Does Different Equal Deficient? Young Advocate Says No!
Linda C Neumann July 23, 2018 October 29, 2018 Advocacy & Policy, Voices
On May 21, 2018, an eighth-grade student from Warren, New Jersey, had a message for the Warren Township Board of Education. During the public comment section of the Board's meeting, Johannes Wellerding rose to address the members and others in attendance. This twice-exceptional honor roll student, who participates in both the gifted and talented program at his school and special education, had an important message for attendees; and he supported it with examples, relevant quotations, and his own life experiences as a person whose diagnoses include autism. The message was this: Different is not synonymous with deficient.
This wasn't the first time that Johannes came to address school board members. During the summer of 2017, he was moved to craft a message about the lack of acceptance and sensitivity that he saw on the part of both students and teachers in the school district with regard to individuals on the autism spectrum. From early middle school, Johannes heard the term autistic used in a derogatory way — as a name kids would call one another throughout the hallways, at lunch, and even in the classroom. To his frustration, teachers took no action to curb this inappropriate use of the term. When bringing the issue to the school's attention brought no changes, Johannes decided to follow his mother's suggestion to go right to the top — to the board of education.
In deciding to advocate for himself and fellow students on the autism spectrum, Johannes was following in the footsteps of his mother Leanna Wellerding, founder and past-president of the Warren Township Schools Special Education Parent Advisory Group. What got her started as an advocate, she explains, was "that first IEP meeting," when she found herself u...

The Horror! The Horror! Comic Books the Government Didn't Want You to Read!
Jim Trombetta
Abrams / · english
The Horror! The Horror! uncovers a rare treasury of some of the most important and neglected stories in American literature -the pre-Code horror comics of the 1950s. These outrageous comic book images, censored in 1954, have rarely been seen since they were first published. Jim Trombetta, in his commentary and informative text, provides a detailed history and context for these stories and their creators, spinning a tale of horror and government censorship as scary as the stories themselves. Bonus DVD-Confidential File, a rare 25-minute TV show that first aired on October 9, 1955, about the "evils" of comic books and their effect on juvenile delinquency is included with the book.

Q: Having Trouble Getting SQLite Working in my Android Application I am having a problem getting my SQLite working properly in this Android application that I'm developing. It appears as though the table isn't properly being created based on the LogCat messages. I feel like I've been staring at the screen too long. Can anyone here spot the problem in my code?

}

So in onCreate() (in my MainActivity) I try to insert a new record into the database and then try to retrieve it into a cursor. However, it seems to be getting caught at the insert statement.
@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        // the projection (fields from the database that we want to use)
        String from[] = { DBHelper.COLUMN_DESCRIPTION };
        // matching fields on the layout to be used with the adapter
        int to[] = { R.id.tv1 };

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvMainJokes);
        dbHelper = DBHelper.getDBHelper(this);

        long code = dbHelper.insertNewJoke("Holiday", "", 2, "Joke 1 Description", "", "",
                "joke", "", "", 5, 1);

        if (code != -1)
        cursor = dbHelper.getJokes();
...

Thanks for taking a look.

A: I would say that you need some space in Create statement.
Starting: COLUMN_QUESTION_TEXT + "text," into COLUMN_QUESTION_TEXT + " text,".

A: It looks just like you don't have spaces between the column names and the column types.  Try this.
    private static final String DATABASE_CREATE = "create table " + TABLE_JOKES
        + "( " + COLUMN_ID + " integer primary key autoincrement, "
        + COLUMN_CATEGORY + " text not null, " + COLUMN_SUBCATEGORY
        + " text not null, " + COLUMN_JOKE_TYPE + " integer not null, "
        + COLUMN_DESCRIPTION + " text," + COLUMN_QUESTION_TEXT + " text,"
        + COLUMN_ANSWER_TEXT + " text," + COLUMN_MONOLOGUE_TEXT + " text,"
        + COLUMN_RATING_SCALE + " integer," + COLUMN_COMMENTS + " text,"
        + COLUMN_JOKE_SOURCE + " text," + COLUMN_RELEASE_STATUS + " integer,"
        + COLUMN_CREATED + " text," + COLUMN_MODIFIED + " text" + ");";

A: At a quick glance, your code looks good. The exception:
    android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: table jokes has no column named releaseStatus (code 1)

seems erroneous because clearly you are creating the releaseStatus column in your create table DATABASE_CREATE String. I ran into a problem where I was modifying the schema of my database and the changes were not taking effect in my application because I was not incrementing the DATABASE_VERSION.
Your options to try which will all cause the database to get recreated are:

*

*Clear the applications data via the Settings apk

*Manually uninstall then reinstall your application. (Just running gradle installDebug or having Eclipse install your app isn't good enough)

*Increment your DATABASE_VERSION value

A: In DATABASE_CREATE mistake "integer," + COLUMN_COMMENTS + "text,". No sepparate space.


Quality of life is measured by indices that have an impact on satisfied and happy human life.
For happy and satisfied life, it is necessary to have these areas in balance with each other. An imbalance in one of them could have an impact on our overall satisfaction with life.
Even though the municipality where we live can not provide us a happy, carefree and rich life, it can try to set the conditions that will help us to meet all these needs.
When constructing an overall quality of life score, we carefully selected indicators that objectively capture the situation in the municipality and have a corresponding value.
Number of practitioner's offices in the territory of the municipality related to population.
Number of practitioner's offices within a 30-minute driving range of the municipality's town hall.
The number of practitioner's offices is based on data recorded in the National Register of Health Service Providers for the last quarter of 2017.
The distribution of the results is very irregular, shifted towards lower values. Only 20% of municipalities reached values above 5.1. This indicates big difference in availability of practitioners in the few municipalities with the best results and in the rest of the republic.
Number of pediatrician's offices in the territory of the municipality related to population.
Number of pediatrician's offices within a 30-minute driving range of the municipality's town hall.
The number o pediatrician's offices is based on data recorded in the National Register of Health Service Providers for the last quarter of 2017.
The distribution of the results is relatively regular with the concentration at the center, because 20 % of the municipalities with the worst availability of pediatricians reached values in a similar range (0 - 3.3) as 20 % of the best municipalities (values between 6.7 - 10). The availability of pediatricians varies from one municipality to another, but in most municipalities the differences are not so significant.
The indicator represents the time required to drive to the nearest hospital from the municipality's town hall.
Information about hospitals is based on data recorded in the National Register of Health Service Providers for the last quarter of 2017.
Calculation considers speed limits on roads. Actual traffic situations and closures are not considered in the calculation.
The distribution of the results is very irregular. The resulting index of almost half of municipalities is higher than 9. This is due to the fact that in most of the municipalities at least one hospital is located directly in their territory, so the time to the nearest hospital is very similar. Poor results are achieved by municipalities that do not have any hospital and whose residents have to go to the hospital in one of the adjacent municipalities.
Number of pharmacies in the territory of the municipality related to population.
Number of pharmacies within a 30-minute driving range of the municipality's town hall.
The number of pharmacies is based on data recorded in the State Institute for Drug Control for the last quarter of 2017.
The distribution of the results is irregular, shifted towards lower values. Only 20% of municipalities reached values above 5.4. This indicates a big difference in the availability of pharmacies in the few municipalities with the best results compared to the rest of the republic.
Life expectancy at birth for men in the administrative district of the municipality with extended jurisdiction.
Life expectancy at birth for women in the administrative district of the municipality with extended jurisdiction.
The data about life expectancy when born are based on statistics of Czech Statistical Office for period 2012 - 2016.
The distribution of the results is relatively regular with the concentration at the center. The achieved values of 60% of the municipalities are in a relatively narrow range of 3.3 - 6.1, which means that the average life expectancy does not differ much. Big differences in life expectance are found only in a few municipalities on both ends of the spectrum. The difference between municipalities with the lowest and the highest average life expectancy for men and women is about 7 years.
Average concentration of particles PM 10 in the municipality's territorial air.
Average concentration of particles PM 2,5 in the municipality's territorial airy.
The information about concentration of particles in the air is based on data recorded by the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute in 2012 - 2016.
The distribution of the results is slightly irregular, shifted towards higher values. The achieved values of 60% of the municipalities are in a relatively narrow range of 4.4 - 7.0, which means that air quality does not differ much in most municipalities. At the same time, it is clear from the distribution that the worst municipalities have significantly higher levels of pollution than the rest of the republic. These municipalities have been on the limit of the 2012 Air Protection Act air pollution limit values for a long time.
The indicator represents the number of companies, that have reported releasing pollutants into the environment within a radius of 30 kilometers from the municipality's town hall. The companies are assigned weights based on the harmfulness of the substances they released. Information about the releases is based on data recorded by the Integrated Register of Pollution managed by the Ministry of Environment of the Czech Republic and the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register managed by European Environment Agency for 2015.
The distribution of the results is irregular, shifted towards higher values. Around 80% of municipalities reached values above 4.2, which means that in several municipalities at the bottom of the ladder, the situation is significantly worse than in the rest of the republic.
The indicator represents total area of all kinds of protected natural areas within a radius of 30 kilometers from the municipality's town hall.
The information is based on data recorded by the Nature Conservation Agency of the Czech Republic for the last quarter of 2017.
The distribution of the results is very irregular. The resulting index of more than half of municipalities is not higher than 2. This is due to the large difference in the availability of protected areas in the few municipalities with the best results and the rest of the republic. These are municipalities with national parks and large protected landscape areas in their surroundings.
The indicator represents average share of unemployed people in administrative district of the municipality with a delegated municipal office. Share of unemployed people is calculated as number of applicants for job in age 15 - 64 years, who are registered on Labour office, related to overall population of people in the same age.
The information is based on data recorded by Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs for year 2017.
The distribution of the results is irregular, shifted towards higher values. This is due to the fact that in the most of the municipalities unemployment is at a similar low level, while in municipalities at the bottom of the ladder the situation is significantly worse than in the rest of the republic. In general, unemployment in all regions of the Czech Republic is relatively low, which makes the Czech Republic at the level of unemployment one of leading countries in the whole European Union.

Generally speaking, housing prices in individual regions are quite distinct.
Residents who receive welfare or financial contributions for living from public assistance programs in the municipality related to population.
The information is based on data recorded by the Labour office of the Czech Republic for 2017.
The distribution of the results is irregular, shifted towards higher values. A total of 80% of municipalities reached values above 5.3. The distribution shows that in most municipalities the situation is similar to that in the best municipality. On the contrary, in several municipalities at the bottom of the ladder, the situation is significantly worse than in the rest of the republic.
The indicator represents number of people in financial distress related to population.
The information is based on data provided by internet portal mapaexekuci.cz, which uses data from Central Evidence of Financial Distress for 2017.
The distribution of the results is irregular, shifted towards higher values. A total of 80% of municipalities reached values above 4.4.

The indicator represents the overall sum of capacities of kindergartens in the administrative district of the municipality with extended jurisdiction, related to the overall number of children aged 3 to 5.
The information about the capacity of elementary schools is based on data recorded by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport of the Czech Republic for the school year 2016/2017. The data about the number of children in the given age range are based on statistics from the Czech Statistical Office from the beginning of the year 2017.
The distribution of the results is relatively regular with the concentration at the center. Achieved values of 60% of municipalities are in a relatively narrow range of 3.7 - 6.5, which means that the availability of kindergartens does not differ much in most administrative districts. Significantly better or worse values occur only in several administrative districts of municipalities at both ends of the ranking. However, the main fact is that many municipalities are facing problems of insufficient kindergartens capacities.
The indicator represents the overall sum of capacities of elementary schools in the administrative district of the municipality with extended jurisdiction, related to the overall number of children aged 6 to 14.
The distribution of the results is slightly irregular, shifted towards higher values. A total of 80% of municipalities reached values higher than 4.2.

The calculation considers all restaurants recorded by Google's map application for the last quarter of 2017.
The distribution of the results is irregular, shifted towards lower values. Only 20% of municipalities reached an index value higher than 4.2, and 60% of municipalities are in a relatively narrow range of 2.0 - 4.2. This signifies a similar level of restaurant availability in most of the municipalities and a large difference in the few best municipalities.
Number of movie projections in cinemas in the municipality's territory related to population.
Number movie projections in cinemas within a 30-minute driving range of the municipality's town hall.
The calculation considers permanent cinemas according to the Union of Film Distributors at the end of 2017. The number of movie projections is based on publicly available programs of relevant cinemas for the first quarter of 2018.
The distribution of the results is very irregular, with 80% of municipalities not achieving index values higher than 3. This means that the best municipalities have significantly better access to movie projections in cinemas than other municipalities. These are mainly municipalities that have at least one multiplex nearby.
The indicator represents the area of territory that is reachable by a 30-minute drive from the municipality's town hall.
The calculation considers speed limits on roads in the last quarter of 2017.
Actual traffic situations and closures are not included in the calculation.

The numbers of clubs and associations are different in individual municipalities, but in most municipalities the differences are not very large.
The information is based on statistics from the Czech Statistical Office. In the case of Prague, electoral participation was the same for both elections because council elections in Prague happened during municipal elections.
The distribution of the results is relatively regular with the concentration at the center, 20% of municipalities at the low end of the ranking reached values in a similar range (0 - 3.3) as 20% of the best municipalities (values in the range of 6.2 - 10). In most municipalities, electoral participation is at a similar level. However, the difference between the best and the worst municipalities is more than 33%.
The indicator represents the number of traffic accidents in the municipality's territory related to population.
The information is based on 2017 data recorded by the Police of the Czech Republic.
The distribution of the results is irregular, shifted towards higher values. This indicates that in most municipalities the number of traffic accidents was similar when related to population, but the situation in the municipalities at the low end of the ladder was significantly worse.
The indicator represents the number of licensed gambling facilities in the municipality related to population.
The information is based on data recorded by the Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic for the last quarter of 2017.
The distribution of the results is very irregular, shifted towards higher values. This is due to the fact that in several municipalities gambling is outlawed. Almost 20% of municipalities have achieved the same best result 10. On the contrary, 20% of the worst-performing municipalities range from 0 - 6.3, which means there are large differences in access to gambling in these few municipalities compared to most municipalities in the Czech Republic.

However, in the best municipalities the situation is significantly better. At the same time, it is necessary to say that apart from the top municipality, there is a negative difference in all municipalities, which means that young people are leaving the municipality.
The indicator represents the number of new residents and born inhabitants minus the number of ousted former residents and deceased inhabitants in the municipality.
The information is based on 2016 statistics from the Czech Statistical Office.
The distribution of the results is slightly irregular with 20% of the worst performing municipalities reaching values ranging from 0 - 4.3 and 20% of the best municipalities ranged between 6.8 - 10.

When forming teams, managers must create a balance so that there's a diverse set of skills, personalities, and perspectives.

is the key to this. Some managers, especially those who earned their positions based on their technical expertise, try to do most of the work themselves. They think that, because they're responsible for the work, they should do it themselves to make sure it's done right.
Effective managers recognize that by assigning work to the right people (not just those with the most time available), and clearly outlining expectations, teams can accomplish much more. But it's often difficult to trust others to do the job. As a manager, remember that when your team members have the right skills, training and motivation, you can usually trust them to get the work done right.

Many managers are very comfortable with planning, problem solving and decision making, given that they're often skilled specialists who've been promoted because of their knowledge and analytical abilities. As such, one of the most important issues that managers experience is that they focus so intensely on these skills when they think about self-development that they fail to develop their people skills and team management skills. Make sure that you don't focus on these skills too much!
However, if you need to develop these skills, see our major sections on Problem Solving, Decision-Making, and Project Management. You'll find many rich skills improvement resources in these areas.

Whether you manage a department or a project team, it's important to know how to get the work done right. When you're asked to achieve something with the help of others, it's complex – and you spend much of your time managing relationships instead of doing the actual work. So, you must develop not only your technical skills, but your management skills as well.
Great to hear that the assessment was informative and will provide you with a metric for assessing your improvement in the various aspects of management. We appreciate the feedback.
The need for leadership skills dominates the business press and social media. Sometimes we minimize the importance of management skills. It is not an either/or; we need both skill sets in the workplace.
We hope that you are able to apply what you have learned from your results to grow in your career. We appreciate your feedback!


Most days of the week, lunch can be satisfied with a decent set menu and a nice glass of wine…perhaps a bottle, if it's been that sort of week. Then there are other days: when you've landed a big project, when a long-lost friend is in town, when the sun is shining just so. On those days, when you'll want something special, Fera at Claridge's makes a very strong case.
Fera, under executive chef Simon Rogan, takes over the space formerly ruled by Gordon Ramsey at Claridge's: the dining room, though extensively renovated, retains many of that once-lauded restaurant's grand Art Deco fittings. Yet Fera is somewhat softer, more inviting: less intent on slapping you about with greatness, real or perceived. The food reflects the environs: understated yet complex, elegant yet playful…though less rugby scrum than a summery game of boules.
We opted for the full tasting menu (£105 + £95 wine flight) though Fera also offers a more modest three-course lunch for £35, sans wine, and an a la carte menu with starters ranging from £16-23 and mains from £24-38 (as of late August…the menu changes frequently depending on season and produce.) Whichever menu you choose benefits from Fera's micro-universe of growers and suppliers, including a 12-acre smallholding owned and managed by Rogan. The result is a consistent note of freshness and care at Fera: despite the regal surroundings, one gets the sense of dining in someone's very grand personal home, with all of the personal touches one might expect.
The full tasting menu we had consisted of six snacks and eight courses. Our menu was accompanied by a traditional yet well-judged wine flight, mostly Old World, all gentle and elegant in keeping with the tasting menu. A la carte, Fera's wine ranges from about £8-26 per glass; prices start at £29 per bottle but average around £50, quickly going up into the three and four figures from there.
Our meal opened with a lovely glass of Bugey Montagnieu (Franck Peillot, Savoie), a sparkling wine with no added sugar, giving it a dry, almost tangy minerality. This was a fine accompaniment to our first snack, Puffed barley, smoked eel, ox-eye daisy, which looked very like something you'd pick up off the forest floor – woody and gnarled-looking, but light, crispy and smokily delicious.
Stewed rabbit with lovage cream was an earthy delight, the rabbit encased in tiny balls of lightly fried tapioca, the effect being the crispiest and gentlest of rabbit croquettes. Squid, alexander and ling roe featured tender, slightly macerated pieces of squid sandwiched between feather-light crisps of ling roe: a quick, fresh explosion of the sea.
By this point we had moved, wine-wise, to a delicately honeyed Muscadet 'Fief du Breil' (La Louvetrie, Loire Valley, 2011) that paced the increasing depth and complexity of the menu.
The squid snack was followed by perfectly judged Scallops and peas in buttermilk served in the shell, then the arguable star of the snack flight: a mousse of savoury Winslade cheese and potato in which sat a tiny, flavourful morsel of duck heart, deliciously rich.
The final snack – Crab, rhubarb, verbena and pork fat – was a lovely bridge between the sturm und drang of the duck heart and the first of the main tasting courses, Aynsome soup, mustard cream, soft herbs and flowers.
Cornish lobster, pickled golden beetroot, dittander and sea herbs was well paired with an unusual wine – Etna 'Vinujancu' (Vigneri, Sicily 2011): grown from black soil vines at the foot of Mount Etna, the smoky, almost charcoal notes of this unfiltered delight came alive against the meaty richness of the generous chunks of lobster in this course.
Surprisingly savoury was a grilled salad course: salad crisped over embers with sunflower seeds and a truffle custard, served in a beautiful, hand-carved wooden bowl and tossed to taste via a small spade and fork, also hand-carved. We shifted to reds here, beginning with Valtellina 'Carteria' (Sandro Fay, Lombardy 2010), made from 100% Nebbiolo, which was a firm, licoricy accompaniment.
A highlight was Hake in caramelised cabbage, potatoes in chicken fat with nasturtium: beautifully presented, the title of the dish neglects the absolutely delicious crisped chicken skin that added crunch to the firm, moist hake.
The mains concluded with Dry-aged Herdwick hogget, beetroots and watercress, the hogget aged for 21 days and served with a sundried beetroot jus that was absolutely wonderful. A marvellously thick, brambly Maule Valley Carmenere (Clos Ouvert, Chile 2011) was a perfect wine pairing and brought out the depth of the meat.
A trio of desserts finished our meal. Pineapple weed ice cream with butterscotch and celery retained strong notes of all three signature ingredients and made for a surprisingly delicate, and delicious, combination.
Less successful was Hereford strawberries with meadowsweet and linseeds: not a miss, just not a stand-out, the whole being so subtle as to practically disappear in the mouth. Sheep's yoghurt, milk flakes, black cherries, Douglas fir – was held together solely by the last ingredient, which lifted what otherwise might have been another slightly underwhelming dessert.
The desserts were matched with two lovely wines – indeed, head sommelier Riccardo Marcon didn't hit an off note with any pairing. The Arbois 'Fleur de Savagnin' (Domaine de la Tournelle, France 2011), was golden, light and florally lovely; the Jurancon 'Marie Kattalin' (Domain de Souch, France 2011) was buttery and ever so slightly savoury, which worked surprisingly well with the black cherry dessert.
As mentioned earlier, Fera's menu changes with seasons and produce so your menu will almost certainly be different than ours. But given the quality of ingredients and the exceptional skill in their preparation (and the understated yet consistently attentive service) you can be assured that your special lunch, or dinner, will be well worth it.

With the Dynasty White, extravagant opulence was the goal and combining Chardonnay, Semillon and a dash of Muscat proved to be the winning combination we were seeking. This wine defied vineyards, and it goes beyond the grapes themselves. After fermenting the Chard and Sem in older oak, we allowed this wine to further develop for 9 months in stainless steel barrels on their lees to create a wine of wine up front texture while retaining a sense freshness. The Muscat was an accouterments at the end of the process, and who doesn't love Muscat.

Four levels of sampling are provided by Yamaha's Pure CF sound engine, which reproduces the piano voice of the Yamaha CFIIIS concert grand piano.
The String Resonance sample faithfully recreates the sound of the strings in an acoustic piano as they resonate together. This results in a beautiful, rich tone with ample reverberation. The Damper Resonance DSP sample recreates the resonance heard in an acoustic piano sound when the damper pedal is depressed, resulting in a very acoustic tone. Key-off Samples deliver the delicate change in sound the instant the damper falls back to the string, resulting in subtle nuances in the piano's tone.
The Yamaha P125 88-key digital piano has Yamaha's GHS (Graded Hammer Standard) weighted action, that provides a heavier touch on the lower keys, and a lighter touch on the higher keys - just like a Yamaha grand. Additionally, the matte finish of the black keys absorbs moisture from your hands, making them less slippery even after hours of practice.
