Thomas Hibbert junior
Claimant or beneficiary
Thomas Hibbert Junior (1795-1845) was the son of Thomas Hibbert (1761-1807) and Dorothy Mansfield. His father had been a partner in his uncle Thomas' (1710-1780) slave factorage business in Kingston alongside his cousins Thomas Hibbert (1744-1819) and Robert (1750-1835). He sold his interest in the firm and bought out his cousins from the Aqualta Vale estate which they had previously co-owned. Thomas had two brothers, John Hubert Washington and Julian Hibbert. John Hubert (q.v., 1804-1875) served as a Captain in the First Dragoons and owned Bilton Grange in Warwickshire. Julian (1800-1834) was a radical who was involved in the establishment of the National Union of the Working Classes and the transformation of the Blackfriars Rotunda.
Thomas' father died when he was young leaving him an inheritance of £20,000. In 1811 he was sent to be educated by the Reverend Mr. Smith of Winchester and later followed Smith to Glasgow. It was at this point in his life that Thomas began to exhibit some strange behaviours for which he was subject to ridicule by his schoolfellows. In 1813 Thomas attended Trinity College Cambridge although he left the same year and travelled to the continent. He returned to Cambridge to read Classics between 1814-5. He attended Cambridge at the same time as his cousin Nathaniel Hibbert (1794-1865) who remembered that the students referred to Thomas as 'fool Hibbert'.
Throughout his young adult life Thomas had manifested signs of mental health problems. His behaviour became increasingly erratic and on several occasions he attacked his mother and sister in their home. His father's will had stated that each son would receive an additional £10,000 when they came to the age of twenty-five. In 1820, with Thomas approaching this age and his mother fearing that he was not of sound mind, a commission of lunacy was brought forth to determine if he was capable of managing his land and finances. At this point Thomas absconded to Brussels but he returned after a year to face the court. Thomas was described as an 'alleged lunatic'. He was under the guardianship of his uncle John (1768-1855) who 'did not think he was a man of strong mind, but thought that he was in his sense.' Despite the support of witnesses which included both medical men and his own family the court ruled that Thomas was incapable of managing either his own person or his estates. The case was followed by The Times; once Thomas had been declared a lunatic an advert was taken out in the newspaper requesting his creditors to come forward to make their claims.
Following the court case it seems Thomas may have resided with his brother John Hubert Washington Hibbert and his mother Dorothy at his brother's country house, Bilton Grange in Warwickshire. He died in 1845.

The Momineen and the Kafirin
By Naseer Ahmed, New Age Islam
Muhammad (pbuh) was the last of the messengers. He was an Ummi prophet sent to an Ummi people. The word Ummi means those without scriptures or from among the people to whom no messenger had come before, and was therefore without scriptures and guidance.
(62:2) It is He Who has sent amongst the Ummi a messenger from among themselves, to rehearse to them His Signs, to sanctify them, and to instruct them in Scripture and Wisdom,- although they had been, before, in manifest error;-
(36:6) In order that thou mayest admonish a people, whose fathers had received no admonition, and who therefore remain heedless (of the Signs of Allah).
(37:156) Or have ye an authority manifest?(157) Then bring ye your Book (of authority) if ye be truthful!
From the above verses, and from the fact that the Quran says that Prophets have been sent to many nations (6:42), and the fact that every other civilized people have their religion and scriptures, makes all such people, the "People of the Book". The universalism of the religion of Islam, and its inclusiveness of all other people, is obvious from the following verses:
(2:112) Nay,-whoever submits His whole self to Allah and is a doer of good, - He will get his reward with his Lord; on such shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
(5:69) Those who believe (in the Qur´an), those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians and the Christians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness,- on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
The Momineen (faithful) and the Kafirin (faithless) are therefore terms that cannot be associated based on the religion professed, but based on behaviour alone. Else, Islam is not a universal and inclusive religion. Indeed, we do find the Quran judging people by what they do. The Mushrikin in an unjust battle against the Prophet, are referred to as the Kafaru, but the same Mushrikin, after they have been vanquished and are no longer at war, are referred to simply as Mushrikin in verse 9:5 and not as Kafirin. It is therefore the act that you are engaged in, which defines you in that context.
At one extreme are the Momineen, the people of unshakeable faith, who can never do wrong because they are always mindful of God, and at the other extreme are the Kafirin or "those who will never believe", the likes of the Pharaoh, Qarun, Haman, Abu Jahl, Abu Lahab etc., who are evil incarnate, always opposed to what is just, right and good. In between fall the rest, who can be judged based on the act they are engaged in, and not based on the faith they profess, or their religious identity. We find the Quran doing exactly this.
(49:14) The desert Arabs say, "We believe." Say, "Ye have no faith; but ye (only)say, ´We have submitted our wills to Allah,´ For not yet has Faith entered your hearts. But if ye obey Allah and His Messenger, He will not belittle aught of your deeds: for Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
Faith is not simply a matter of saying "I believe", but a state in which one is mindful of God, which helps resist the temptation to do wrong, or impels to do what is right and just, irrespective of the consequences to self. Allah guides those who are always mindful of God in their deeds, to attain complete faith in Him. See 8:23. Faith is not achieved by being born into a Muslim family nor by reciting the Kalima alone, or by affiliation to any religion, but by acts that bring one closer to God.
As it concerns the people in general, we can therefore talk only in terms of their deeds – whether their deed is worthy of a Momin, or whether it is the deed of a Kafir, or whether the deed is pleasing to God or one that God would be displeased with. Why then does it shock people, when I said that the Indian Army performed the deed worthy of the Momineen, in liberating the oppressed people of Bangladesh, from their oppressors? The oppressors were the army of Pakistan, raping and killing defenceless civilians and their deeds were certainly the deeds of the faithless or the Kafirin. People are shocked, because the Indian army is thought to be a Hindu army, and the Pakistan army a Muslim army, and in our bigoted theology, Kafir has come to mean a non-Muslim and Momin is always a Muslim. In our bigoted theology, a Muslim can never be a Kafir, even though the Quran uses the term Kafir, to describe Muslims who consume usury and those who do not give charity and the Munafiqin or the hypocrites. And if just about anyone who submits to Allah and is a doer of good will be rewarded with Heaven, why cannot such a person be called a Momin irrespective of his religious identity?
Let us consider the adjuration at the beginning of Surah 95:
(1) By the Fig and the Olive,
(2) And the Mount of Sinai,
(3) And this City of security,-
(4) We have indeed created man in the best of moulds,
(5) Then do We abase him (to be) the lowest of the low,-
(6) Except such as believe and do righteous deeds: For they shall have a reward unfailing.
(7) Then what can, after this, contradict thee, as to the judgment (to come)?
(8) Is not Allah the wisest of judges?
The City of Security is easily recognizable as Mecca since it is a sanctuary from the days of Abraham and is associated with Islam; the Mount of Sinai is associated with Moses or Judaism. What about the Fig and the Olive? Are these fruits that Allah is recommending? If that were so, it would be a horrible mixing up of unrelated metaphors! The Olive and the Fig must therefore necessarily refer to two other religions. The Mount of Olive is associated with Jesus or Christianity, and the Fig is referring to the Fig tree under which Buddha meditated and received enlightenment or with Buddhism. Why is God swearing by these four religions if these are not a few of the different paths to Him?
5:48 "…..To each among you have we prescribed a law and an open way. If Allah had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (His plan is) to test you in what He hath given you: so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is to Allah; it is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which ye dispute;"
What is common to all the four religions? All the four religions have a clear deontological or rule based moral code. What is uncommon? Buddhism is relatively agnostic about belief in God but strong on its moral code. I repeat, faith is not attained by saying I believe, but by following the path that is steep, which is the path of living a moral life and described as follows:
(90:10) And shown him the two highways?
(11) But he hath made no haste on the path that is steep.
(12) And what will explain to thee the path that is steep?-
(13) (It is:) freeing the bondman;
(14) Or the giving of food in a day of privation
(15) To the orphan with claims of relationship,
(16) Or to the indigent (down) in the dust.
(17) Then will he be of those who believe, and enjoin patience, (constancy, and self-restraint), and enjoin deeds of kindness and compassion.
(18) Such are the Companions of the Right Hand.
What is emphasized above? Good deeds. Anyone who practices the deeds described above, will attain complete faith in God and those who do not, will not attain such faith. And all the deeds described above are emphasized in the four religions mentioned.
What Allah clearly wants from us humans, is that we follow His deen or Laws or Religion which is the moral way of living. It is through such practice, that one can attain faith, and not simply by saying "I believe".
Just imagine what would happen if the Muslims were to follow what I say. All of them would then be on the path of trying to attain perfection in their deeds to get closer to God and urging others to do the same. This is exactly what Allah wants us to do in Surah 103 Al-Asr:
(103:1) By (the Token of) Time (through the ages),(2) Verily Man is in loss,(3) Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy.
They would also then openly hail the good deeds of others as the acts of a Momin irrespective of the person's religious affiliation gaining their respect and admiration. This would attract others to Islam and its teachings. What do we have now? We call ourselves Momin although we have become among the worst people on this earth and call others Kafir although they are better than us in many ways. Who then wants to be such a Momin? Have we not become the worst enemies of Islam and distorted the religion beyond recognition with our bigoted vision?

NEW YORK, United States — The Clarisonic cleansing brush launched in 2004, went viral in 2007 after a nod from Oprah, hit $100 million in annual sales in 2010 and was acquired by L'Oréal in 2011. Clarisonic, which is owned by L'Oreal and created the market for sonic skin cleansing devices, said it is shutting down the business on Sept. 30. In 2018, Clarisonic owned 14% share of the U.S. market for skin cleansing devices, according to market research firm Kline & Co. As the market grew, it became fragmented with newer brands like Foreo and NuSkin, which ate into Clarisonic's share and following. On Sept. 30, L'Oréal is shutting down the beauty device trailblazer that convinced consumers to upgrade from hands and wash clothes to cleanse their faces with an oscillating tool.

Early this morning around 2:40 a.m. on Friday, January 12, 2018, officers responded to the area of Tiger Trail Drive and Whitegate Avenue, regarding a suspicious vehicle driving around this Alessandro Heights neighborhood. This vehicle would stop frequently with the passenger would getting out and checking the door handles to other cars and houses. When officers arrived and began searching the area, they located the suspect vehicle in the area of Cactus Avenue and Dauchy Avenue.
As an officer was getting ready to make an enforcement stop on this vehicle, the occupants started throwing mail out of the windows. Assisting officers responded to assist and the occupants were detained. During a search of their vehicle, officers located stolen mail belonging to multiple victims who resided in the nearby neighborhood. A records check of the driver revealed he was on probation for stolen property and the passenger was on parole for assault with a deadly weapon.
Ramon Pedraza, 30-years-old of Perris, was arrested for mail theft, probation violations, and vehicle code violations. Angela Mercado, 25-years-old of Long Beach, was arrested for mail theft and parole violations. Both were later booked into jail.
If not for our community members calling in this suspicious activity in their neighborhood, these two suspects may have been able to commit more crimes in this area. It does not appear the suspects came across any unlocked cars or houses, so great job to those neighbors for keeping your homes and vehicles secure at night.

Passports, Parliamentarians, and Fanny Hill
The Moonwalk London 2014 route goes through Westminster and so today we look at Petty France. The name is fairly straightforward: from petit – little – France, because of French settlers there as early as the 15th century. Nestling close to Parliament Square and the seat of government, it was, for many years, the home of the London passport office; the office relocated in 2002. Famous residents of the street included Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart Mill, and William Hazlitt. John Milton also had a "pretty garden house" there, from 1652, when he was secretary to Oliver Cromwell and starting work on Paradise Lost, to the Restoration of 1660. At that time, as a supporter of the Parliamentarians, he had to make himself scarce from the re-established monarchy in the form of Charles II, whose father Cromwell had beheaded.
An early edition of Fanny Hill
The most colourful and infamous resident was the novelist John Cleland (1709-17899, who died there, in obscurity, at the age of 82. Cleland, who is said to have spent a fair amount of time in debtors' prisons, made his mark and his money in 1750 when his Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (better known as Fanny Hill) was published. The book (of "pernicious tendency") was a bestseller and brought the publishers £10,000 (according to some calculations, as much as £15,000,000 today) in profits. Cleland himself earned 20 guineas, or around £80,000).
An illustration from the book: Fanny Hill whips Mr Barville
Money notwithstanding, the privy council was not amused and summoned Cleland to explain himself. He pleaded poverty as his excuse for the scandalously indecent book, and the president of the council granted him an annuity of £100 (around £20,000) on the condition that he never again wrote that kind of book.

Drug Testing in Middle School Can Cut Use as Students Age
By Nirvi Shah on March 25, 2013 8:56 AM | No comments
Students randomly tested for alcohol in middle school seem less likely to drink and use drugs during those middle grades, and they are less likely to drink when they get older, a six-year study of New Jersey students finds—although researchers caution that random drug testing isn't a panacea for drug- and alcohol-use prevention.
The study tracked about 3,500 middle school students from the 2006-07 school year through this school year. Researchers at Fairleigh Dickinson University, in Teaneck, N.J., and from the Partnership for a Drug-Free New Jersey found that middle school students who had been tested at any point in 6th through 8th grades for drug and alcohol use didn't follow one pattern typical of most high school students.
"Generally, we see a huge spike in drug and alcohol use around the junior year of high school. That's when students get jobs, get cars, get money, and start having contact with older individuals who are more likely to use drugs," said Dan Cassino, a professor of political science at Fairleigh Dickinson, and principal investigator for the study, in a press release this month. "Students who were tested for drugs at any point in middle school, though, don't show nearly as big a spike [for alcohol use], and that reduction is a big deal."
From the study:
Holding all else equal, the results here show that testing leads to a mean reduction of 6 points in the likelihood that a student will use alcohol in 8th grade, reducing the likelihood from about a 13 percent chance to a 7 percent chance. There is no question that this is a significant effect, and many studies have shown the benefit of delaying the incidence of first use of alcohol by a few years to be dramatic.
The effect of the drug testing on drug use wasn't the same. "Students who had been tested showed much smaller increases in perceived and actual use of alcohol—but not drugs—year-to-year," the study says.
While schools across the country have randomly tested students on athletic teams or other extracurricular activities for drugs, the New Jersey schools are part of a growing trend of testing any student for drug use (as allowed by a U.S. Supreme Court decision in 2002).
The schools in this study required parent and student consent before testing.
Parents in one California district have opted for a similar program, although in that case, their children don't get a say in the testing.
At the New Jersey schools, the effect of the drug and alcohol testing was limited—only kids who were tested were less likely to use drugs and alcohol later on. The effect didn't spread to classmates who weren't tested but knew their friends were being tested.
Researchers cautioned that those results might be because of the percentage of students at each middle school who were actually tested for drug and alcohol use. If more students were tested, the effect of the testing could be different, they said.
In addition, the researchers said any debate about the cost and benefit of this kind of "suspicionless" random drug testing has to focus on the benefit to the individual student being tested.
Drug testing aside, the study found that when parents talk to their kids about drugs and alcohol—the subject of public service announcements for years—it can have a profound effect on children.
Relative to students who don't discuss the topic with their parents, researchers said, students who have regular discussions with their parents about drugs and alcohol are significantly less likely to use drugs and alcohol and less likely to want to do so.

I was so devoid of happiness. I know it happens its just my chemistry but it's always still so new and hard hitting as though it was the first time, every time.
trying to find balance, trying to find your place.
I have always been proud of the fact I'm a little bit more of a go with the breeze of the wind and sea kind of person.


Many thousands of people in the UK are not happy with their smile. When they look in the mirror they may see a wonky or crooked smile and this dissatisfaction can spread further then just their teeth. Their self-confidence can also be dented. Well, here at One Smile Oral Care, we can improve this with Invisalign in West Malling.
What is Invisalign at One Smile Oral Care?
Invisalign is designed to rectify a multitude of teeth straightening issues. Invisalign in West Malling is also an alternative to traditional fixed metal braces. They use transparent, incremental aligners to adjust teeth quickly and reliably. Over a relatively short amount of time, this can create the smile you have always wanted.
These clear aligners also specifically designed to fit easily into your lifestyle. We will always suggest you should wear them for around 22 hours every day, only removing them to eat, brush and floss. With Invisalign in West Malling, you also have the added benefit of being able to take them out for a specific occasion and pop them back in when you can.
Every two weeks, you will need to switch to a new set of Invisalign aligners. The series of aligners will gradually move your teeth into their final prescribed position. We will closely monitor your progress and provide your next batch of aligners when required, while all the time ensuring your treatment is going smoothly.
Invisalign in West Malling is designed to custom-fit your teeth while not interfering with your lifestyle choices. Also, Invisalign is virtually invisible, so no-one will notice that you are in the process straightening your teeth unless you choose to tell them.
The treatment allows you to maintain your dental hygiene, allowing you to brush and floss as normal. There is no fixed brace that can get bits of food stuck in the wires.
With Invisalign there is also much less chance of irritation in your mouth and gums. This is because there are no wires on the aligners to cause you discomfort or pain.

Missouri Botanical Garden is a must for natives and travelers
The Missouri Botanical Garden is considered one of the top botanical gardens in the country.
The first time I visited I understood why.
It was spring and there was a colorful blanket of tulips: ruby, orange, peach and pink, gold, yellow tulips with a red bases that swayed in the gentle breeze.
Large water lilies floated on fountains and ponds. Blood orange poppies and purple and gold irises were in bloom.
But aside from stunning flowers and plants, there's an amazing collection of sculptures, incredible architecture, educational events, and history all over the gardens.
After my first visit, I couldn't believe that I'd lived in Missouri for 10 years at that point and had never visited this gem. Since that first trip, I've been back several times and am planning another jaunt this summer. If you've never been, you should plan a trip but expect to spend several hours there because there's so much to take in.
I'd also recommend a narrated tram tour of the park, which lasts about 30 minutes, costs $4, but is a good way to snake around the property, soak up the beauty and learn a little bit of the garden's history.
Founded in 1859 by Henry Shaw, the Missouri Botanical Garden spans 79 acres and boasts 23 demonstration gardens and three conservatories.
The Climatron is the largest conservatory and it's fascinating. The dome shaped building houses more than 2,800 plants, including 1,400 different tropical species.
I felt like I'd ducted into the tropics when I walked into the Climatron. The first thing that made me feel that way was the humidity, but then there were banana trees, cacao, spice plants, orchids, and exotic, rare plants such as the double coconut, which produces the largest seed in the plant kingdom.
In 1976, the Climatron was named one of the 100 most significant architectural achievements in United States history. It rises 70 feet in the center, buy has no columns and no interior support.
It provides a wonderful opportunity to see plants from the rainforests in Brazil to the jungles in Borneo, all without leaving Missouri. There's so much to see, but I only lasted about an hour inside because of the humidity (it averages 85 percent humidity and 85 degrees in the day).
I also enjoyed the kaleidoscope of international gardens at the garden: Japanese (one of the most photogenic parts of the park); English (always whimsical); Chinese (whose architecture stood out more than the plants); Ottoman; Bavarian and German.
The serene, 14-acre Japanese garden was my favorite. The website says this is one of the largest Japanese gardens in North America. Photo opportunities abound here from cherry blossoms in the spring to stone features to arched bridges that are reflected on ponds below.
There's also lanterns of historic significance, including a snow-viewing lantern at the entrance that is preserved from the 1904 World's Fair.
Another beautiful area at the Missouri Botanical Garden is the Victorian district which pays homage to the Henry Shaw, the garden's founder. You can also tour the Tower Grove House which was built in 1849 and was Shaw's country residence.
I was also amazed at the number of beautiful sculptures — more than 50 – that are peppered throughout the garden, including blown glass by artist Dale Chihuly. When you come into the visitor center, you'll see the 928-piece "Missouri Botanical Garden Blue Chandelier" suspended in the atrium. Pieces of his blown glass can be spotted at different areas of the park.
If you have a green thumb, then one of the many demonstration gardens are a must. The botanical garden hosts a variety of classes throughout the year, so if you are an avid gardener you can check the schedule and plan your visit accordingly.
And something I've never done but would love to do is the Whitaker Music Festival on Wednesday nights in the summer. Every Wednesday through July 29, there's a free outdoor concert at the garden. You can bring your own picnic supper, baskets or coolers. Picnic fare, beer, wine, soda and sno-cones are also available to buy. After 5 p.m. on those Wednesday nights, admission to the park is free. Music begins at 7:30 p.m.
It sounds like a wonderful way to spend a summer evening.
NOTE: All photos were courtesy of the Missouri Botanical Garden. This story was written for a publication for The Joplin Globe.
Missouri Botanical Garden, 4344 Shaw Blvd., St. Louis. Admission: $8 adults (ages 13 and older): Free for ages 12 and younger. Call (314) 577-5100. For more information: http://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/
Wear comfortable shoes and plan to spend several hours at the gardens. They key is to try and go on a cool day and or head there first thing in the morning before it gets too hot.
Bring sunscreen and a camera.
The Missouri Botanical Garden features flower shows, live music and special events throughout the year. Visit the online event calendar to see what's "growing on" at the Garden!
If you get hungry, the Sassafras Café has a surprisingly good lunch.
Special Event:
Also this summer is the "Lantern Festival: Magic Reimagined," which is a beautiful evening Chinese lantern festival (I still recommend going in the day to see the garden). Twenty two sets of lanterns will light up the Missouri Botanical Garden and will be constructed using traditional materials including silk, wire and porcelain. Each set will be accompanied by interpretation detailing the design's tradition, symbolism and meaning and some sets will incorporate recycled materials.
It is on display during select nights now through Aug. 23. Open Thursday-Sunday evenings from May 23-July 31. Open 6 to 10 p.m. nightly from August 1-23.
Evening Admission for May 23 – July 31: $22 adults; $10 children (ages 3-12). Aug. 1-23: $26 adults; $10 children (ages 3-12). Discounts for Missouri Botanical Garden members.

Migrant and refugee women benefit from alumni fashion startup
A fashion label launched by UNSW graduates is providing valuable support for migrants and refugees – and catching the eye of major designers, too.
Sarah MacDonald | UNSW Newsroom | 01 Nov 2018
Before she launched ethical fashion label The Social Outfit, UNSW Arts and Social Sciences alumna Jackie Ruddock was intent on becoming a high school teacher.
"I did my Dip Ed as a high school teacher," Ms Ruddock says.
"I had a really great experience and met some fantastic academics that then meant I went and did my Honours in education and particularly looked at socially marginalised communities, particularly LGBTIQ students in school."That study year led Ms Ruddock to work with homeless and at-risk young people, and in 2010 she did a stint as a volunteer with the Melbourne-based fashion label and school The Social Studio.
The school and label is a social enterprise which helps young people from new migrant and refugee communities, and it developed the model on which the Social Outfit is based.
"I thought that the creative use to build employment and skills for the future was a really great idea, and the migration numbers to both Victoria and NSW were around the same," Ms Ruddock says."So, we looked at what it would look like to replicate the model here in Sydney, and we were fortunate to begin [The Social Outfit] in late June 2014."
The Newtown-based sustainable label now provides sewing training to new migrants and refugees from more than 30 countries, including Iraq, Syria, Myanmar and Africa.
The result of the label's partnerships with organisations such as the Asylum Seekers Centre, the Community Migrant Resource Centre and the Red Cross has been the production of high-end garments and regular collaborations with influential Australian designers such as Bianca Spender and Alice McCall.
"The premise behind The Social Outfit is that many new migrants arrive in Australia with amazing and rich traditions of sewing and tailoring," Ms Ruddock says."Clothing manufacturing is a very long-held skill for many people when they arrive.
"You take an existing skill and use that strength to help equip people as they settle into Australia and essentially get their first Australian job and their first positive experience with training, and they see where that can lead them."
Ms Ruddock, who is the CEO of the label and has "no fashion training whatsoever", launched the charity with UNSW graduates Jessica Lee Parker from Art and Design, and Joanne Morton from Arts and Social Sciences.
While Ms Parker, a graphic designer, oversees the textile design, Ms Morton, who comes from a manufacturing background but did her Master's in Development Studies, is the label's sewing trainer.
"So I guess that each of us, in our own way, uses our qualifications, but they have ended up being applied quite broadly," Ms Ruddock says, adding that the three only recently discovered that they had all attended UNSW.
The Social Outfit has so far employed 19 new migrant and refugee women and provided more than 200 people with sewing skills in the free training and education programs they run.
Ms Ruddock says there's a real need for female migrants and refugees to be equipped with employment and training opportunities when they settle in Sydney.
"Ninety-eight percent of the people we work with are women," she says.
"Research shows that compared to the 60% of men from a refugee or new migrant background involved in employment, only 20% of women are [employed]."
Ms Ruddock says there are "really lovely creative aspects" to The Social Outfit's work.
"What I love about it too is that when the women who buy our clothes – and they're bright, they're colourful, we get to do a lot of signature garments – wear them, someone often says, 'wow, that's really beautiful, you look great', and then that woman gets to tell the story of that work.
"I think it highlights the collective nature of what we're trying to achieve.
"It's that we can share stories that are about the creative process, and how that creative process is trying to have a positive outcome for people."

Here are some very simple strategies to jumpstart your guitar practices and get yourself some guitar motivation.
1. Believe in your abilities. Realize that when you're practicing the guitar by yourself, you don't have to prove anything to anybody. You can accomplish whatever you want in any amount of time. Just force yourself to pick up that guitar at least once per day.
2. Fit a guitar practice into your schedule. You might know that you have a lot on your plate during the day, but you can probably afford fifteen minutes for your guitar. Set aside a small portion of time each day with the motivation that every tiny bit helps.
3. Practice where you want. If you don't like to practice in front of other people because it makes you nervous, then don't do it! Pick the most personal place where you can truly let loose and don't let anything hold you back on that guitar.
4. Practice what you want. Maybe you didn't want to play again because the thought of another scale or practice riff just sounded terrible to you. Then don't play them! If you sit down to your next guitar practice knowing that you can play whatever you want, you're almost guaranteed to get your motivation back.
5. Reward yourself when it's over. Another thing that guitarists miss out on is a little reward to themselves for completing their agenda. It can be small like buying an ice cream cone or going to the movies, but the purpose is to let yourself know that you did a good job.
Your guitar motivation might have been waning last time because you didn't get to practice what you wanted, and that can stink. Plan on doing things your way the next time so that playing the guitar is a fun experience again.
Start out with the simple E, A, D, C, and G chords. These are the types that only require two or three fingers. Not only are they easy to learn, but they are also the foundation for thousands of popular songs.
The trick is to practice holding a chord and playing it until you get a clear sound. Then practice releasing your hand and try to reposition your fingers again as quickly as possible. Once you've mastered a few chords in this way, practice switching back and forth between chords as quickly as possible. Strum the guitar each time for feedback.
This is a really important tip. It is important to learn real songs from the very beginning. Avoid getting lost in drills or renditions of "Three Blind Mice". The point of learning to play the guitar to actually play the guitar. There are many hundreds of popular and/or classic songs that only require two or three of the basic chords. Learning a few classic songs early on will not only teach you a lot, but boost your confidence and keep you motivated..
Unfortunately, scales really are required. In fact, they are vital to your to learning how to play. Practicing scales is equivalent to weight lifting and drilling in sports. Athletes spend more time practicing and conditioning their bodies than they do playing the game. The same is true for the guitar. Musical scales form the foundation of nearly all music. Practicing scales trains your fingers to across the strings, back and forth along the guitar. Mastering scales makes it easy and effortless to play the right notes. You'll barely even have to think about it after awhile.
This is one technique that really helps to learn how to play the guitar. You can practice chords this way. Practice picking notes and composing whole songs with this method. When you practice this way blindfolded, you quickly train hands and fingers to go where they are supposed to go on the guitar. You will develop a "feel" for the guitar this way. If you are ever playing for an audience, you won't have time to stop and look for the right finger position. The key is to train your fingers to automatically go where they need to go.
Finally, the main recommendation for learning how to play the guitar, is to get guidance from an an experienced teacher. You might choose a private tutor or an online guitar training program. Either way, you need a well designed program or teacher to lead you step-by-step through the learning process. A qualified teacher or well produced program will know what challenges and pitfalls you will encounter and will know how to guide you past them.
Colleen has a passion for guitars and ukuleles. She enjoys jamming, teaching, and getting others involved in music. Her website, Coustii, focuses specifically on guitars and ukes. Colleen loves to travel and uses her ukulele as a conversation starter on the road.
You need to be one with that instrument. I played Stratocasters for the most part. I fix Strats, played them and listened to them. Yep plain. They paint them with car paint from NJ and no fancy wood or hardware. I started to play Les Paul's with that great history and beautiful wood. The pickups have a range like nothing I ever heard. Great with a big price tag. The life because more about the guitar. The music and the player was dealt out. I worried about the three of them getting stolen smacked or a simple knock over. Great guitars really I love all three and play them at home. I was looking for the best work guitar, I had changed my Strats so much that I couldn't even call them a Strat now. I always said a white Strat with a maple fret board was the most perfect guitar made, just pure. I went to a shop that just started selling Fenders a few months before, I bought a couple guitars from them and knew them. A standard is the only real Strat. After looking at every thing I saw, I walked to the used guitars. It was screaming for me. A perfect guitar, white, maple and new? How did it get in the wrong spot. It was a 5 year old case queen. I bought it and the music came back, I ring it long maple neck and it scream bloody murder. I hold it just right and love spills out all over hitting everyone in the ears. I found my way home and do what I do best, lay in down with an old Strat and an over driven amp.

Saudi Art's Inside-Out Revolution
January 30, 2011 by Marion Maneker
The New York Times Magazine has an excellent profile of Andrew Vicari, the Saudi Court painter, hustler and blowhard. Although it is difficult to know the ultimate target of the piece is–the vanity and naivete of Saudi's Royals, Vicari's pretensions or the role art plays in structuring history and reality–Adams does an excellent turn within the piece by introducing Abdulnasser Gharem as a counter-point. Gharem is both an establishment figure–a serving officer in the Saudi Army–and a leading contemporary painter. Gharem tries to explain Vicari's popularity among the Saudi elite:
"What you have to remember back then," he said, "is that we had no galleries, no models really. Not really even books to look at." As a result, he suggested, art was what was big and vaguely impressionistic. In recent years, Gharem said, Saudi artists have been liberated by the Internet, which allows them to communicate with contemporaries elsewhere and interpret their situation at home in new ways. It is a measure of how far Saudi society has come, he said, that the army supports his radical other life, and that the broadly questioning and critical agenda of the "Edge of Arabia" group is possible. It is still hard to show work in Riyadh, however. "The galleries here are still rejecting me," Gharem said. "They think art is still pictures of horses, you know. Like Vicari. But I think that time is passing. The art we are making is much more about what is happening in our country now."

The only reason I feel slightly conflicted about the foul-ball cases is that I remain convinced that Stone v. Bolton / Bolton v. Stone was wrongly decided on the facts. The proper result would have been to find the club liable, but not require grounds changes.
None of those concerns really apply in the baseball cases, though I would find for the plaintiffs if and only if the stadium is in any way publicly funded, because, um, er, unclean hands cause improper grip.
Hypo: what if 25m smallbore target shooting were to become a major spectator sport, and hired Roger Goodell as commissioner?

Decoding the news
The world of book awards – a longlist
Claire Armitstead
We've all heard of the Man Booker and the Bad Sex prizes – but do you know your Impac from your Boardman Tasker?
@carmitstead
Wed 7 Sep 2011 12.30 EDT First published on Wed 7 Sep 2011 12.30 EDT

The announcement of the Booker shortlist this week signals the start of the new awards season. In a sense, though, we're halfway through it, with the Orange prize stealing a march by announcing its winner in June, thereby appearing to take command of the calendar year when their judging year actually runs from April to March. This sleight of hand worked particularly well this year, as Tea Obreht's The Tiger's Wife was published in March and is therefore very much a 2011 title.
How many awards are there?
On a rough count there are at least 50 literary awards in the UK each year, ranging from the highly specialised – the Boardman Tasker prize for Mountain Literature, whose 2010 winner was Ron Fawcett autobiography Rock Athlete – to the general, such as the Costa awards, which cover five genres, culminating in the book of the year. Some, like the Booker, honour a particular book, while others, such as the David Cohen prize, are designed as tribute to a life's work.
What are the top awards?
The Man Booker is the blue chip of British literary prizes, with the winner guaranteed a huge jump in sales. The Orange Prize is enduringly controversial, as it is only eligible for women (AS Byatt has famously refused to allow her novels to be submitted for it). But for the right winner, such as Andrea Levy, who won in 2004 with Small Island, it can undoubtedly be a career-maker. The Costa book of the year (previously the Whitbread) is a coveted title, partly on account of its distinguished roster of past winners, which include Ted Hughes' Birthday Letters and Philip Pullman's The Amber Spyglass.
Why are they important?
With more than 100,000 books published each year, it's vital for the publishing industry to have effective sifting mechanisms beyond its own promotional capacity. The prize year is an important part of this ecology, especially because many prizes concentrate on non-commercial areas of publishing. Last year's surprise winner of the Costa book of the year was a poetry collection, Of Mutability, by Jo Shapcott. The prize was awarded in January. In February, the Bookseller reported a 1,066% jump in sales. The prize money also comes in handy for hard-pressed authors, though hidden fees can cause headaches to publishers of the winning titles, as Craig Raine discovered when the first book his imprint Arete had ever published, Christopher Reid's poetry collection A Scattering, won the Costa book of the year.
Why are there longlists and shortlists?
The cynical view is that longlists are designed to create a buzz around awards, which will give them more prominence. Discussion around this year's Booker longlist was as much about the authors that didn't make it (including previous winners Graham Swift and Anne Enright) as those that did.
However, most judging panels compile their longlists with an eye to creating an interesting reading list. It's usually at shortlist stage that the real contenders come into focus, so anyone pushed for reading time would be better off reading two shortlists than one longlist.
If you were a science-curious reader looking for a reading list to bring you up to speed with popular science writing over the past two decades, you could do worse than peruse the shortlists for the Royal Society Winton Prize for Science Books.
What about international awards?
Arguably the biggest prize of them all is the Nobel prize for literature, awarded every year by the Swedish Academy, though from an Anglo-Saxon perspective some of their choices are so leftfield as to barely register. The 2008 winner Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clezio was out of print in English at the time, though several of his books have been republished since. The Pulitzer Prizes in the US have become an international calling card. Perhaps surprisingly, one of the richest international prizes is the Dublin-based Impac award, made every other year by librarians around the world. It carries a useful prize of €100,000. Meanwhile, the most pampering prize has to be Le Prince Maurice, for literary love stories. It is awarded in French and English in alternate years, and transports its winner to a luxury resort on Mauritius for a two-week writing residency.
What's the naffest prize?
The Bad Sex prize, funded by Literary Review and awarded every year since 1993, is hardly guaranteed to have readers rushing to their local bookshop. But the joke is that it has been won by a surprising number of respectable literary novelists, including Norman Mailer, Tom Wolfe and Melvyn Bragg. What Jonathan Franzen made of his nomination last year for Freedom is between him and his analyst.

Bob is Back! The founder of Bob's Steak and Chop House buys back his original Dallas steakhouse!
Bob Sambol, the founder of Bob's Steak and Chop House, has bought back his original Lemmon Ave. steakhouse and plans to welcome guests to his 250-seat restaurant on March 1. Sambol confirmed the news to EscapeHatch with excitement.
Sambol founded the Bob's Steak and Chop House at that location on July 19, 1993, replacing the original Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse when it moved to a larger space at 5251 Spring Valley Ave.; that space is now another great Dallas steakhouse, Al Biernat's.
"I'm taking back control of the Bob's on Lemmon, and I'm going to make it great again. Dallas loves a good steakhouse."
In USA Today last year, I wrote that Dallas as the best steakhouse city in America. Sambol agreed:
"You go to New York to eat Italian and you come to Dallas to eat steak," he says. "Everything important gets commemorated with a steak dinner. No one says, 'let's go celebrate with chicken.'"
Sambol's longtime partner in the Bob's empire acquired the chain 8 years ago. Since then, Bob's has grown to 16 locations and is owned in part by Omni Hotels. For the past few years, Sambol has led operations of Trinity Groves, the 18-restaurant complex west of downtown Dallas. His last day with Trinity Groves will be February 28. He'll welcome guests to his Bob's the following day, March 1.
"After an incredible experience with Phil Romano and his Trinity Groves project, I want to go back to running a steakhouse," Sambol told me. "I know I can offer something that a lot of restaurants don't have: incredible hospitality. I know how to run the front of the house and improve this brand.
"A lot of people have good food, but no one has Bob Sambol at the door. Customers crave good food but they also want great hospitality. I'm going to give them both."
Sambol says he'll continue to offer the same core Bob's Steak and Chop House menu offered throughout the chain, including the spiced carrot that's delighted loyal customers — and been the butt of jokes — for nearly three decades. The steaks won't change either, Sambol says: prime strips and rib-eyes from Chicago's Stock Yards.
"The menu is timeless," Sambol said, adding that he'll offer plenty of special features to give the menu a unique spin.
"I looked at doing my own (with a new name), but this location has always meant a lot to me," he told me, "but it needs a makeover." He plans to update the decor with new carpet, chairs and lighting,and add a new sound system.
I used to frequent the Lemmon Ave. Bob's for many years while Sambol was in charge. Every night of the week, the bar and dining room were filled with politicians, CEOs, business elites, Dallas Stars, Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Mavs, other famous athletes and runway models. Bob's was the place to be.
Bob's was where I learned to appreciate prime beef and the thrill of dining in a busy restaurant where hospitality flowed naturally and guests were expected to be friendly and engage with other guests regardless of social or economic status. Boone Pickens. like every other billionaire who walked into Bob's, sat at the bar wherever there was an empty space and said "hello" to the people around him.
Sambol says he'll welcome guests at his Bob's restaurant every night, six days a week, beginning March 1. (The restaurant will remain closed on Sundays.)
I'm pretty sure a reservation here will be the hardest table in town to snag, so put this on your speed dial now: (214) 528-9446.
