"Over the past 3 years, my 11 y.o. cousin, Elijah, has battled cancer with the utmost resilience. Elijah's physical fight is now complete, as he transitioned to heaven on Friday. He didn't leave this world without knowing how much he was loved though. Last weekend, Elijah got to 'meet' 3 of his favorite artists — The Weeknd, J. Cole & Drake. Incredibly grateful for these 3 super-humans being so caring for my family during this time," Watson shared.
Alongside the heartfelt message, Watson included a video compilation of the moments Elijah shared with J. Cole and The Weeknd.

Сонга́ї (сонгой, сонгай; щодо окремих груп також короборо, гомборе, дженне) — група народів у Західному Судані, переважно в Малі (Західна Африка).

Територія проживання і чисельність
Народи сонгаї населяють басейн річки Нігер в її середній течії — територія приблизно від міста Дженна до впадіння річки Кеббі в Нігер, а також прилеглі місцини (адміністративно це значна частина Малі — центр і південний схід, північ Буркіна-Фасо, частково захід Нігеру).

Чисельність людей сонгаї є дискутивним питанням, адже нерідко до сонгаї зараховують представників сусідніх народностей. Оціночно можна стверджувати, що близько половини представників народів сонгаї (тобто са́ме сонгаї і дуже близьких зарма), а це понад 600 тис. осіб проживають у Малі, до півмільйона осіб народів сонгаї живуть у Нігері, 122,7 тис. чоловік сонгаї-хумбурі сенні населяють захід Буркіна-Фасо, також невеликі групи в Нігерії, Беніні, Гані тощо.

Мови, субетноси і релігія
Вчені схильні вважати, що сонгаї розмовляють сонгайськими мовами, а не діалектами однієї мови, і вже в межах цих мов зберігється поділ на діалекти й говірки, який в цілому визначає субетнічне членування сонгаїв. До сонгайських мов, що мають літнорму, і відповідно міжнародне кодування, належать:
 сонгаї хумбурі сенні Humburi Senni (носії живуть в Буркіна-Фасо, діалекти — короборе́ та марансе́) —  ISO 639-2/ISO 639-3: son/hmb.
 сонгаї койра-чііні Koyra Chiini (у Малі в районі від Дженне до Тімбукту; 0,2 млн чол.; Новий Заповіт перекладено в 1936 році; діалекти — койра чііні, дженне чііні) — ISO 639-2/ISO 639-3: son/khq.
 сонгаї койраборо сенні Koyraboro Senni (Малі, Нігер; найчисельніша кількість носіїв — понад 0,4 млн чоловік; діалекти унормовуються малійською владою для вироблення єдиного зразка з метою викладання в початковій школі; вплив бамбара і французької; традиційно мова міжетнічного спілкування в районі Гао) — ISO 639-2/ISO 639-3: son/ses.

Сонгаї — традиційно монолінгви, деякі з сонгаїв койраборо сенні володіють французькою, бамбара або берберськими мовами.

За віросповіданням сонгаї майже цілком мусульмани-сунніти.

Flu cases decline but outbreak remains dangerous
NEW YORK (FOX5NY.COM) - This winter's flu outbreak is the country's most intense in nearly a decade, but it appears we're approaching the light at the end of the tunnel.
"Influenza, this week, the activity is definitely going down," said Dr. Dan Jernigan, the director of the CDC Influenza Division.
Health officials announced Friday that the number of people going to the doctor with flu-like symptoms has continued to decline. Deaths from the flu and pneumonia are going down, too. While the peak may have passed, health officials warn the season isn't over yet.
"The levels that we're seeing are still at levels that are above or right at what we had at the peak of some of the recent past seasons," Dr. Jernigan said.
The CDC reported that 17 more children died from flu-related illnesses; 114 children have died this season compared to 101 last season.
"The highest number of hospitalizations were in those over age 65," Dr. Jernigan said. "And for those individuals, we still have a fair amount of the season to go, and so if they are getting sick, because the season has peaked, does not mean that they don't have influenza."
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo also announced the number of laboratory-confirmed influenza cases has decreased.
"Our comprehensive efforts to get New Yorkers vaccinated have greatly decreased the number of cases, but we still encourage New Yorkers to get vaccinated and take necessary steps to continue to stop the spread of this virus," Cuomo said in a statement.
Flu season starts around October and can run as late as May, according to the CDC, which advises you to get your flu shot as long as the flu is circulating.

The saggy skin o n the neck is impossible to hide, and it adds years to your appearance. For those consumers who pride themselves on looking their best, aging neck skin can be the source of much frustration. Whether you are just noticing the signs of aging on your neck area, or whether the sagging is extensive, Skinpeutics has the Formula you have been waiting for. Fast, Effective Results are just some of the reasons why we have chosen Skinpeutics Subdermal Repair Neck Cream as our Editors Choice for Best Neck Cream!
If you are unfamiliar with the Skinpeutics Brand, the company is a wonderful skincare brand offering anti aging solutions for consumers of all ages. The Subdermal Neck Repair Cream is Certified Organic and Hugely Popular with consumers. The 'Secret' to their success is the combination of High Quality Ingredients with a track record of success with large portions of the consumer base.
You can buy it directly on their site.
One of the things that impressed our Editors about this neck cream is the complete nature of the formula. Yes, Skinpeutics uses high quality ingredients, but they also make sure to address each and every aspect of aging neck skin. That means both what you can see, and what you cannot see, which may lead to further aging down the line. Ingredients that address the obvious sagging and wrinkles, but also some that improve circulation and better protect against the onset of further aging.
As we stated earlier, all of Skinpeutics products are Certified Organic and Cruelty Free. This neck cream meets the consumer trends and desires without sacrificing any of the effectiveness that the marketplace demands. In our opinion, Skinpeutics Subdermal Repair Neck Cream is the Best Neck Cream on the market. The ingredients are some of the reasons why.
SesaFlash – Sesaflash is a hydrolyzed sesame protein that has a track record of doing wonders for the skin. This ingredient has been recognized with a number of awards by skincare experts. SesaFlash provides an instant lifting, filling of wrinkles and firming of the skin. Deep Binding Moisture that improves the Texture and Firms Loose Saggy Neck Skin.
Matrixyl – A well documented Copper Peptide that is universally considered among the industy's best long term wrinkle treatments. Fine lines and deep creases are no match for this ingredient. Cellular Renewal and Regeneration processes are triggered with regular use of Matrixyl which makes it the ideal ingredient for this Neck Cream. Matrixyl will help you firm sagging skin, fill and reduce creases and wrinkles, while improving the texture and overall health of your skin.
Hyaluronic Acid – Hyaluronic Acid is a very powerful ingredient, especially as it pertains to aging skin. It provides deep moisture to the skin cells, but it also binds that moisture there, keeping those cells plump and nourished. This improves the health of the dermal matrix, which keeps your skin looking firm, supple and free from crepe-like textural problems. Using Hyaluronic Acid reinforces your skin's structural integrity and keeps you looking your best.
Shea Butter –A moisturizer known for its rich firming hydration. Shea Butter is a staple of quality skincare products, in fact many feature it alone as an active ingredient. Its nourishing properties moisturize the skin but also deliver critical, essential nutrients for your skin. A little known property of Shea Butter is its ability to lift and firm the skin.
Green Tea –Green Tea is very well known for its ability to counter act some of the Free Radicals caused by UV rays and environmental exposure. Protecting your skin and neck from further damage which leads to aging is a critical part of the healing process. We cannot stop our bodies from aging, but we can help prevent their premature deterioration. Green Tea gives our skin a fighting change, which is why we love its inclusion in the Subdermal Repair Neck Cream.
Chamomile – Chamomile has many benefits to the skin. Calming inflammation and soothing irritation within the skin is important, but detoxifying and removing impurities from the skin are also critical. Chamomile will keep your skin toxin free and help you combat many of the impurities that lead to premature aging and a dull complexion.
The Skinpeutics Subdermal Repair Neck Cream is sold exclusively on the Skinpeutics official website, Skinpeutics.com. Consumers have multiple options to choose from. 1 Bottle Sells for $78.99 or 2 Bottles for $129.99, which is a smarter way to buy.

Wonderful Product. Been using it less than a month and already can see the changes.
Took me a little over 2.5 weeks to start to the changes in my jaw line. Im very happy with the neck cream. Good Recommendation.

In this Jan. 12, 2017 file photo, Housing and Urban Development Secretary-designate Ben Carson testifies on Capitol Hill in Washington at his confirmation hearing before the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee.
The Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee has unanimously approved President Donald Trump's nominee for housing secretary, Ben Carson.
The former Republican presidential candidate and celebrated neurosurgeon would lead the Department of Housing and Urban Development, a sprawling agency with 8,300 employees and a budget of about $47 billion. His nomination now heads to the full Senate.
Committee Chairman Michael Crapo of Idaho praised Carson and his impressive career, saying HUD "will benefit from having a secretary with a different perspective and a diverse background."
Ranking Democrat Sherrod Brown said he had some reservations but welcomed Carson's promises to address lead hazards in public housing.
The Senate committee has approved the nomination of Elaine Chao to head the transportation department and the nomination of billionaire investor Wilbur Ross to head Commerce Department as well.


In Orissa, over the last five years the Sangh Parivar's tentacles have spread and thickened. Minorities, refugees, and the poor -- the social crevices in which they live narrow from neglect. The disenfranchised struggle to confront social violence. The annexation of territory and resources from the subaltern, the imposition of virulent ideologies and alienating economies, have produced diverse identity politics defining contested practices of citizenship. At the intersections of globalization and hyper nationalism, Hindutva intervenes, unravelling the fragile fabric of democracy.
The communalization of education is a serious concern across India. Sectarian education campaigns undertaken by Hindu extremist groups demonize minorities through the teaching of fundamentalist curricula. Such corruption of education incites the political and social fires of communalism. The RSS has spearheaded the movement, successfully penetrating into the educational systems of both the grassroots and centralized regulatory commissions. The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has fashioned an institutional umbrella that is having a damaging impact on education at the grassroots. The RSS has established Vanvasi Kalyan Parishads, Vivekananda Kendras, Sewa Bharatis and other groups to advance the ideological agenda of Hindu nationalism. The RSS administers 9,300 Ekal Vidyalayas in adivasi areas. For the diversity of cultures allied under the rubric of 'adivasi', the ongoing reality of Hinduization offers evidence of their gradual and brutal incorporation into this caste system.
Created by the RSS in 1978, the Vidya Bharati Akhil Bharatiya Shiksha Sansthan network focuses on moral, extracurricular and physical education for 'mind, body and spirit'. The Vidya Bharati system supervises over 18,000 schools across India, with 1.8 million students and 80,000 teachers. A shared curriculum is used across the country. The Vidya Bharati operates 60 graduate institutions. About 5,000 Vidya Bharatis are endorsed by Education Boards primarily in states where the Bharatiya Janata Party is in power..
Known as Shiksha Vikas Samiti, Vidya Bharati directs 391 Saraswati Shishu Mandir schools with 111,000 students in Orissa. The RSS has constructed a network of educational institutions across the state. Initially the RSS maintained a public distance between the Sangh and Vidya Bharati. In recent years, as Hindutva consolidates its position in Orissa, the RSS has actively declared its affiliation with these schools. Rashtra Deepa, the RSS Oriya weekly, regularly chronicles some of the academic aspirations of the Sangh Parivar. Most RSS run schools are affiliated with the State Board of Education and adhere to the state approved curricula. As the Sangh infiltrates into regulatory bodies and actively leads the rewriting of textbooks and reorganization of the curriculum, the classroom transforms into an agent of Hindutva.
With the increasing impetus on the privatization of education, the RSS has been actively inaugurating schools in areas across Orissa where the government fails to provide public funding. The vigorous assertion of Sanskrit provides for the erasure and Hinduization of minority languages. History, science, geography, literature, religious texts are interpreted into Hindutva. These texts, written in Oriya, are taught in schools and available in bookstores. The texts weave disparaging and malevolent fictions about minority groups, inciting Hindus to revenge history. The curriculum is censored and obscurantist, interpreted to legitimate the sanctity of a 'Hindu worldview' in India and the assembling of a Hindu state. It enables Hindu nationalism in advancing 'righteous' violence for ethnic cleansing. The RSS broadcasts this education as 'holistic', patriotic and accessible.
These schools are financed by individual donations and contributions from various charitable organizations such as the Mumbai based Bhansali Trust. These schools also offer income generation and computer skills. They serve as gathering places for Sangh organizations providing youth contact with Hindutva leaders. Parents say they are drawn to RSS run schools because they are affordable and profess to educate children in culture and religion, history and ritual.
Students receive ideological training through extra-curricular activity as well. They participate in development work and disaster relief, politicizing education and linking it to social service. An RSS worker in Bhubaneswar speaks with pride. "We ask people to devote one hour a day for their country, in the name of the motherland. To gather in a field and play Indian games; with sticks, swords, other exercises, teach youth to march, some musical instruments. And then we workers discuss the ideology of the RSS -- what Hinduism is, how Hindu culture was great and how it is fading, how the youth must become involved to revive and purify it."
Through regular educational camps, he continues, the RSS recruits teachers and campaigners. Their task is to draw people to the Sangh. "To convince people that the country is in danger, the motherland is in danger. To tell people that no matter who they are, if they return to Hinduism there is place for them in the nation." After training, RSS state and district units send campaigners to serve within the different wings of the Sangh Parivar, and to the rural areas to recruit and organize the Sangh cadre.
The RSS holds month long training sessions across Orissa during summer vacations to attract students and young children. From these sessions, the RSS recruits for the Officers Training Camps (OTC). Held twice a year, the OTC provides schooling in self-defense and leadership. Around 500 people attend each year. On completion, approximately100 join the organization as campaigners. Graduates take an oath, "I will devote my body, mind, and money (tana, mana, bhana) to the motherland." For about 10 recruits, this develops into a lifelong, intense and full time commitment. Each December, the RSS organizes the Sita Shibir, a 7-10 day winter camp. The families of attendees finance the camps. The growth of the RSS testifies to the success of these camps. The RSS boasts of 50,000 shakhas in India, 2500 in Orissa with a 100,000 strong cadre.
In Orissa, the RSS charges that aggressive Hinduization is a 'rational' and warranted response to, among other factors, the growth of missionary activity leading to an increase in the Christian population. In fact, Christians constitute less than 3 percent of the population in the state, with a 1 percent increase since 1981. The Christian population in India does not record any appreciable increase from 2.6 percent in 1971, to 2.43 in 1981, 2.34 in 1991, and 2.6 in 2001.
History is animated through extra curricular activities, seminars and workshops. New heroes, timelines, events emerge to construct India's antiquity, to naturalize her geo-political borders, to define her heritage as Hindu. History is rewritten to determine belonging and un-belonging. Difference is represented as 'other', a threat to the integrity of India as a Hindu nation, unless manipulated and straitjacketed. A whole new generation is being grown indoctrinated in Hindutva. It is a devious strategy to teach hate to the young.

Reader's Theater: The Experiment offers A Child's Christmas in Wales | What's My Call Time?
If you love theater, and also have a literary bent, reader's theater tends to be a lovely, light and accessible option – especially at Christmastime where the act of storytelling seems to be so much more potent.
The Experiment, spearheaded by Ann Vermel, is a group exploring the opportunities readers theater can bring. For actors it offers the chance of performance without all the pressure of learning lines and for audiences, readers theater offers a chance to enjoy the written word through a live, auditory experience.
"We choose our work for language as well as story," explains Vermel. "We believe that when the writer selects a word, that word gains presence, color, vibrance, taste and purpose that can be missed by the silent reader.
We believe that theatre is a voice for the truth, so we look for material that speaks to our times. We are not so much interested in pointing out what is wrong as we are determined to remind people of laughter and of what 'good' looks like, that it is all around us in many forms and faces and can be accomplished if we start by listening.
A Child's Christmas in Wales by poet Dylan Thomas is their first outing and will be performed in several venues around town. The piece was written in prose by Thomas originally for the BBC Radio and then later recorded in 1952. A Child's Christmas is known for its sense of nostalgia and the idyllic memories of childhood. Many of our notions of a "classic childhood Christmas" are rooted in Thomas' work. Since it was originally written with an ear toward being spoken aloud, it is often offered as a Christmas reading event around the English-speaking world.

Shelby 1967 GT500 Eleanor

Car #11 – 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500 'Eleanor'
This stunning authentic 1967 Mustang Fastback was imported to the UK in July 2010 from the sunny state of Florida. It was purchased from a police officer who had invested tens of thousands of dollars to transition the car to the iconic Eleanor body shape, complete with the proper 429 cubic engine. The rebuilt engine, a 429 bored with a 30-over mild cam, arrived with less than 1100 miles on the clock. Additionally, the late Carroll Shelby signed the glove box a few years before he passed. When the car arrived at Southampton port it had a powerful nitrous package in the rear as there were no back seats. Since the car was purchased for wedding hire, the nitrous package was removed and rear seats were installed.
Since its debut in 2010, Eleanor has been listed in the Eleanor World Registry (No. 136) and featured in music and corporate videos. Eleanor has been a favourite choice for grooms and brides alike.
The 1967 Shelby GT500 was the first model built in the Shelby GT500 range. It's based on the 1967 Mustang Fastback and is equipped with a 428cu (7.0L) V8. Only 300 were ever made.
Several body parts of the GT500 were made of fibreglass including the side intakes and bonnet. The 1967 GT500 is famous worldwide for its appearance in the 2000 action movie remake of "Gone in 60 Seconds."
Date of Your Event
Please ensure you calculate a return trip for the vehicle.
We hired the Shelby GT500, Eleanor, as a surprise to take our Son to his Wedding. The car was absolutely lovely, a total hit with everyone and the driver Eddie was fantastic, a really happy guy who genuinely seemed to enjoy the day too! Our son was overwhelmed with the car and it just helped to make the day a really unforgettable, very memorable experience. Thanks so much! We would thoroughly recommend the cars and look forward to hiring them again.
Tina Pantelis
I hired 'Eleanor' for my wedding last year and the service was very professional. The communication was great and the driver arrived before the time arranged. He had patience throughout the day and was a very nice man, compared to a lot of these drivers out there. Very good service and I wish the company the best for the future!
Philip Maqbool
I booked the Shelby GT500 for my son's 21st birthday in February last year. My son was speechless when he saw the car and I cannot even describe the joy after the ride! It has taken him a few months to come down from the high :-) The driver was absolutely lovely and he took the time to explain things. My son said that heads turned hearing this "beast" come down the motorway and even I had goose bumps hearing it. I cannot recommend you highly enough and I know my son would certainly like the opportunity to use you again.
I would also mention that I contacted several companies before you and you were the only one who had the decency and the common courtesy to respond. Good luck with your future ventures.
Debbie Henley
This is just a quick note to say thankyou for arranging the hire of the mustang, the wedding day was so amazing, made all the more special by the car, everyone is still talking about it and we have got some wonderful memories to keep. I have already emailed Eddie the owner to say thank you, but just wanted to thank you both for making the booking go so smoothly,
With kindest regards, Aileen

The station would be effectively restored to its Victorian glory by forming a new entrance onto Station Street, directly facing the city centre, and restoring the booking hall to its original size to create more space for train passengers.
The area immediately outside the new entrance will be remodelled with a ramp and steps leading to a large new glazed entrance to the main concourse. The building's original Station Street façade will also be restored.
The covered entrance hall areas on London Road – known as a port cochère – would be transformed into an attractive new plaza for retail, food and drinks, with the existing taxi ranks reallocated nearby on Station Street.
Leicester City Council has ringfenced £5million of capital as match-funding for the project.
The railway station revamp is seen a first phase of regeneration in the area which, in the longer term, could help attract more private investment and new development in the area.
City Mayor Peter Soulsby said: "The award of almost £18million from the Government's Levelling Up Fund is a tremendous endorsement of the importance of this project.
"The railway station is a beautiful building but badly in need of improvement to meet the modern needs of a city the size of Leicester. This exciting project will make a huge difference, helping to transform the area into a vibrant gateway that will make a major contribution to Leicester's prosperity.
"I want to congratulate officers on their hard work with their successful bids to the Government's Levelling Up programme which has helped attract over £45million of new investment into the city."
Mark Lambert, Head of Infrastructure & Property at East Midlands Railway, said: "This is fantastic news for the people of the city and our customers that use Leicester station. We are looking forward to working closely with the council to help turn these exciting plans into a reality."
The proposals will be subject to planning permission and detailed design and development work is now underway. It is expected that construction will begin in early 2023 and be completed by mid-2024.
Leicester City Council was successful in bidding for over £45.5million from the Government's Levelling Up Fund for three major projects that will support the city economic recovery and growth, and help create hundreds of new jobs.
Along with the transformation of the Leicester Railway Station, the city council has been awarded £8.5million to transform former factory buildings at Pilot House, on King Street, into new start-up units for creative businesses, and £19.4million for three projects in and around Pioneer Park and Exploration Drive, complementing The University of Leicester's Space Park development.

Russian opposition leader Navalny discharged from Berlin hospital
September 23, 2020 admin	0 Comments
Navalny, 44, one of President Vladimir Putin's most prominent critics, fell ill during an Aug. 20 flight from Siberia to Moscow. A video from the plane showed him crying out in agony.
He was flown to Berlin for treatment two days later. The German government has said toxicology tests in three countries have found that he was poisoned with a nerve agent from the Novichok family, a class of chemical weapons developed by the former Soviet Union and Russia. German Chancellor Angela Merkel has demanded an explanation from Moscow, as the Kremlin has denied poisoning him.
According to his team, Navalny intends to return to Russia after he has recovered. Navalny's spokeswoman, Kira Yarmysh, said he plans to stay in Germany for the time being.
A picture posted on his Instagram account Wednesday showed him sitting on a park bench surrounded by woods. He described the first time that he saw a mirror after weeks in intensive care, and thought he looked like a "character from Lord of the Rings."
"I was terribly upset," he said. "I thought that I would never be discharged from the clinic."
He recovered steadily from when doctors brought him out of an induced coma on Sept. 7 and at one point was finally allowed onto the balcony of his room, but said it was still hard to see the parks and trees below.
"But the day has come — hooray!" he added, saying he had asked to be taken to a place with trees. He said that for now, his plans are simple: rehabilitation. Earlier this summer, he had learned to ride a wakeboard, he wrote, "and now I'm learning to stand on one leg."
Navalny's online posts have charted his slow progress. On Saturday, he said he saw a "clear path" to recovery, although a long one. Alongside a photo of him walking down a flight of stairs, in the hospital, Navalny described how until recently he had not been able to speak or recognize people. He said the doctor would bring him a board to try to write a word.
"This drove me to despair because although I understood in general what the doctor wanted, I did not understand where to get the words from," he wrote. "Now I'm a guy whose legs are shaking when he walks up the stairs, but he thinks: 'Oh, this is a staircase! They go up. Perhaps we should look for an elevator.' "
He said he still struggled to use his phone and to pour a glass of water.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said Navlany is welcome to return to Russia like any other citizen. He disputed a report in the French newspaper Le Monde that said that Putin had suggested to French President Emmanuel Macron that Navalny may have tried to poison himself with Novichok.
He said that Navalny was discussed but that the wording was reported in a "completely imprecise manner."
Navalny made light of the report in another post. "Cooked Novichok in the kitchen. Took a sip from a flask on the plane. Fell into a coma," he wrote.
Moscow has said that Navalny tested negative for toxic substances before he left Russia. "In order to compare, be convinced, and understand, we need to have information, which we, unfortunately, are currently being denied," Peskov said.
Berlin says it has received two legal requests for "mutual assistance" from Moscow regarding the Navalny case. German officials have refused to give details of what information Russia has requested, but have said the first has been approved and passed on to Berlin prosecutors to handle. The second is still being "processed," Berlin's Justice Ministry said Wednesday.
The German government has refused to confirm an announcement from Navalny that testing by a German lab had found traces of Novichok on the water bottles from the opposition leader's Siberian hotel room. His team, who had initially suspected that he was poisoned by a cup of tea at an airport cafe, had bagged up items from his room for testing.
Novichok is the same substance that Britain said Russian state security agents used on former Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter in Salisbury, Britain, in 2018. But unlike in the Salisbury case, the investigation of Navalny's poisoning is complicated by the fact that it took place on Russian soil with the victim a Russian citizen.
"The crime was done in Russia, so we appeal to Russia to investigate," German government spokesman Steffan Seibert said Wednesday.
Khurshudyan reported from Moscow. Luisa Beck in Berlin contributed to this report.

U.S. GIRLS' JUNIOR
Li Repeats as Medalist as Fog Wreaks Havoc on U.S. Girls' Junior July 17, 2018 | Pebble Beach, Calif. By David Shefter, USGA

70th U.S. Girls' Junior | #USGirlsJunior
Poppy Hills Golf Course, Pebble Beach, Calif.
Round of 64, Match Play, Wednesday, July 17 | Par 71, 6,081 yards
Hole Locations
Championship History | Media Center
Competitors in the 70th U.S. Girls' Junior Championship have had two opponents this week: a challenging Poppy Hills Golf Course and Northern California coastal fog.
The latter continued to foul up the schedule on Wednesday, creating the possibility for a marathon sprint to the finish line. For the second consecutive day, heavy fog delayed the start of play and thus only five of the scheduled 32 opening-round matches were completed.
On Tuesday, the second round of stroke play was delayed 4½ hours, and a day later, the suspended round could not be started until 9:45 a.m. PDT, a delay of 2 hours, 45 minutes.
The first Round-of-64 match went off the first tee at 3:45 p.m., and six matches never started before darkness and heavy fog halted play for the day shortly after 8 p.m. Matches are set to resume at 7 a.m. on Thursday, weather permitting. The completion of the Round of 32, as well as the Round of 16 are scheduled to be contested on Thursday.
The quarterfinals and semifinals are scheduled for Friday, with the 36-hole championship match on Saturday.
Sisters Yu Wen Lu, 15, and Jing Wen Lu, 18, both from the People's Republic of China and competing in their first U.S. Girls' Junior, were two of the five competitors to finish; the former defeating Haeley Wotnosky, 2 and 1, and the latter edging Maria Jose Martinez Almeida, of Mexico, 1 up. Almeida's younger sister, Maria Fernanda, also was eliminated on Wednesday by Heeji Kim, 16, of the Republic of Korea, 5 and 4.
Alexa Pano, 13, of Lake Worth, Fla., lost the opening hole to University of Oregon rising sophomore Shotika Phadungmartvorakul, 18, of Bakersfield, Calif., before winning seven of the next 11 holes in rolling to a 6-and-5 victory. Doey Choi, 18, of Australia, built as much as a 4-up lead on 2018 U.S. Women's Amateur Four-Ball co-runner-up Ya Chun Chang, of Chinese Taipei, before settling for a 2-and-1 victory.
Round 2 of stroke play concluded slightly after 1 p.m. with Lucy Li, 15, of Redwood Shores, Calif., officially earning medalist honors for a second consecutive year. The No. 9 player in the Women's World Amateur Golf Ranking™ (WAGR) who helped the USA reclaim the Curtis Cup last month posted a 36-hole total of 11-under 131, one stroke shy of the championship record. She is the seventh player to win consecutive Girls' Juniors.
Fellow Northern Californian Yealimi Noh, 16, of Concord, who won last week's Girls Junior PGA Championship with a record 24-under-par total, made a strong bid to match Li, getting to 8 under par thru 25 holes before settling for a 1-under 70 and a 6-under 136 total.
The cut for match play came at 9-over 151 with a 14-for-10 playoff deciding the final spots in the draw. The playoff was conducted on holes 17 and 18 and lasted four holes and 2 hours, 15 minutes.
Abbey Daniel, 17, of Covington, La., and Elizabeth Caldarelli, 18, of Scottsdale, Ariz., each recorded holes-in-one on the 134-yard 17th hole. Daniel's came with a pitching wedge during the second round of stroke play, while Caldarelli aced the hole with a 9-iron on the third playoff hole of the 14-for-10 playoff. They are the 19th and 20th holes-in-one in U.S. Girls' Junior history, and the first since 2012.
Notable players who failed to qualify for match play include 2017 semifinalist Elizabeth Moon, 2017 quarterfinalist Ami Gianchandani and four-time U.S. Girls' Junior qualifier Malia Nam.
Stacy Lewis, a 12-time LPGA Tour winner, was on the grounds Wednesday. Lewis' husband, Gerrod Chadwell, is the head women's golf coach at the University of Houston and is here recruiting future players. Lewis played her final tournament of 2018 last weekend in Sylvania, Ohio, before taking a hiatus for the impending birth of the couple's first child.
Eight of the 16 past Drive, Chip & Putt finalists qualified for match play, including medalist Lucy Li, who won the 10-11 division in the inaugural year (2014).
The youngest (11-year-old Avery Zweig) and oldest (18-year-old Elizabeth Caldarelli) competitors in the field this week qualified for match play.
All seven golfers in the top 100 of the Women's World Amateur Golf Ranking™ (WAGR) advanced to match play, as did all eight of this year's U.S. Women's Open competitors.
Of the 64 players in match play, 39 are Americans and 25 are internationals. California leads the way with 15 players.
Yu Wen Lu, 15, of the People's Republic of China on playing in the fog:
"A few holes, I just kind of had to wait it out. On the 15th hole, the second shot, I could barely see the pin. I just waited for like a minute for the fog to clear. If we would have had to play one more hole, I don't think we would have made it because the fog was getting pretty heavy."
Lu on completing her Round-of-64 match:
"It's really bad right now, so I am really happy we got [the match] done today."
Yealimi Noh (66-70–166), 16, of Concord, Calif., on not using a caddie during stroke play:
"My friend (Yoonhee Kim) came up to caddie for me in match play. In stroke play, I like playing by myself. A caddie is OK, but I like being in my own zone. Even raking bunkers and pushing a cart is part of my routine. It's what I do in [most junior tournaments] because we don't have caddies."
Noh on having to complete the second round on Wednesday after another fog delay:
"I really wish we were able to get in more holes yesterday and not have that really big delay. The second round, when I was playing at 6:30 [p.m.], I was hitting it really, really well. My putting was good. Everything was clicking, but I wasn't able to continue [due to darkness]."

DHL to trial vision picking in the UK
Published Wednesday 31 August 2016 2:21 pm
DHL, Google, Robotics
DHL Supply Chain is to start trials of vision picking in the UK as part of an expanded programme across different industry sectors globally following a trial of the augmented reality technology in the Netherlands.
CEO John Gilbert said: "We are excited to further test and develop vision picking as a solution that can be readily available to our customers. More importantly, this technology is not just one step towards digitalizing manual processes on the shop floor, it also takes us one step closer towards Industry 4.0. Testing technologies like augmented reality, robotics and Internet of Things will continue to be a big part of our DNA."
DHL has been working with partners Google, Vuzix and Ubimax to refine vision picking. Pickers are equipped with advanced smart glasses which visually display where each picked item needs to be placed on the trolley. Vision picking enables hands free order picking at a faster pace, along with reduced error rates.
The smart glasses will now be piloted across various industries such as technology, retail, consumer and automotive industries. The data available from these pilots will further determine the technology's potential for broader implementation.
The pilot sites are spread across the United Kingdom, Mainland Europe and the United States. The Ricoh facility in Bergen op Zoom, the Netherlands, where the solution was first tested, will be the launch site for this new exploration phase.
The initial 2014 test in the Netherlands showed a significant increase in productivity, reduced error rates and overall rise in employee satisfaction, proving that augmented reality can make an impactful difference in reality.
"The Vision Picking Programme is DHL Supply Chain's first translation of what augmented reality solutions can look like for supply chains. The broad spectrum in which the technology can be applied across various sectors is exciting to us, and the potential of this technology for business is still largely untapped. We believe this programme is a game changer in how we run our supply chain operations and deliver added value to our customers," said Markus Voss, CIO supply chain.

We celebrated such a beautiful wedding season, and are enjoying the first glimpse into engagement season! Around the holidays, and after all the wedding guest hype has settled down, we love seeing our friends and family say "yes," and seeing how our newlywed friends are celebrating their first holidays together.
Even though we all had to snag the best gifts for the wedding season, the gift giving doesn't stop there! Whether you're sending a belated wedding gift or buying your BFF something for her and her hubby's first Christmas, here are some tips for buying for your newlywed friends this holiday season.
First, shop the registry. There are likely to be some leftover items that the couple didn't get before the wedding, and they'd be thrilled to open them Christmas day!
Don't worry, newlyweds, it's okay if you don't get everything you want from your registry. Many registries offer discounts off of the items left on your list. For example, if you register with the modern online registry Zola, you receive a 10% completion discount for up to a year after the wedding!
Make it personal. Around the holidays, we like to let our friends know that we're thinking of them and didn't just purchase them a generic gift. A great way to give a thoughtful gift is to add a monogram or maybe the couple's new last name! Some great ideas would be Mr. and Mrs. mugs for their hot cocoa or new luggage tags for their honeymoon.
Buy something for their first holiday together! Even though the couple has been together, and even living together, for a long time, it's always a special moment to spend your first holiday as a married couple. A thoughtful idea would be to get their wedding photos turned into an ornament so they can remember their special day every Christmas! There is a company that will replicate the couple's wedding cake into an ornament! You can also gift a cookbook or new dishes for the couple that loves to host!
What are you gifting this holiday season? Let us know in the comments!

TOURISTS entering English Heritage's new £27 million visitor centre at Stonehenge will quickly confront its most spectacular exhibit – a man who was born 500 years before the earliest stone monument appeared at the site.
He may have a touch of Hollywood about him, but this "Stonehenge Man" was once real. His face has been reconstructed from a 5500-year-old skeleton found in the area. Local protest groups continue to press for him to be reburied, but forensic analysis has allowed scientists to create the most lifelike model yet of an individual from British prehistory. Their work reveals how he lived and ate, and may even shed light on the origins of Stonehenge itself.
The well-preserved skeleton was discovered in an elaborate tomb in the 1860s, providing a rare example of the anatomy of Neolithic people. His face has been brought to life by Swedish sculptor Oscar Nilsson, using information from bone and tooth analyses. The length of the man's bones, the skeleton's weight and his age – estimated at between 25 and 40 years old – were used to determine the thickness of the skin on his face and muscle definition.
Nilsson used a vinyl copy of the skull, made by Andrew Wilson at the University of Bradford, UK, as a base for his clay reconstruction of muscles, guided by markers denoting the fleshiness of the face. He created moulded silicon skin and added pigment before punching in the hair.
Ridges on the skull reveal that this man was muscular – which is not surprising given the Neolithic lifestyle. He had highly masculine features, such as a well-defined chin and jawbone. "I had to give him a beard – there were no razors then," says Nilsson.
Human skeletal biologist Simon Mays from the University of Southampton, UK, was unable to deduce the cause of death from the skeleton and he speculates that Stonehenge Man died of an infectious disease that killed too quickly to leave a trace on bones. Mays did, however, find two leg wounds: a deep muscle injury and a bony projection.
Tooth analysis by Alistair Pike, also at the University of Southampton, was particularly revealing. Pike extracted a section of enamel, then removed particles from different stages of the tooth's growth. A mass spectrometer revealed the ratio of two forms, or isotopes, of strontium at the different stages, which can indicate where his drinking water came from when matched to an area's geology.
Teeth take about four years to form, so it is possible to track the movements of an individual during that time. Stonehenge Man seems to have travelled as a child. He was born in an area of old geology, thought to be somewhere in Wales, and moved to an area matching Stonehenge when about 3 years old. If he came from Wales, says Pike, there could be a connection to the movement of bluestones, the oldest stones at Stonehenge. "The two communities may have been connected for centuries," he says.
The man's teeth show little wear for his age, suggesting a soft diet by prehistoric standards. The carbon isotopes in the teeth vary according to the types of plants eaten, and with the amount of nitrogen, which comes from meat in the diet. His carbon pattern shows he ate more meat than his contemporaries, possibly in stews. This and the elaborate burial suggest he was an important man in the community.
Unfortunately, the man's teeth were unusually clean. "If we had been able to analyse his tartar, we could have identified species he was eating by sequencing proteins in trapped fragments, while bacteria could have revealed the health of his gut," says Pike.
The team did not have enough time before the visitor centre opened to do DNA analysis of Stonehenge Man's colouring, but this would have been difficult anyway because handling over the years has contaminated the skeleton's DNA. They guessed at hazel eyes and dark brown hair, with a hint of ginger, to reflect probable Celtic origins.
If this model of the handsome Stonehenge Man is true to life, then he would not look out of place today. "He could be sitting next to you on the subway," says Nilsson.


If it is not recognisable as an instance of one genre, then it must be another genre.
This model of genre is developed from the work of Hasan, Gregory, Barthes and Bakhtin, that Annabelle's quote touches on. The major innovation is that context is modelled as a semiotic plane, stratified as genre and register, and realised in language. In this model, what Hasan calls a 'cultural practice' is intrinsically a 'semiotic act'.
A genre is a type of text. Genre is register viewed from the instance pole of the cline of instantiation.
An instance of a genre/register is a text. A text realises the field, tenor and mode features of a situation (an instance of context).
 Martin's (1992) use of the term 'activity sequences' confuses what goes on in a text with what goes on in the environment of a text. Evidence is provided here.
 Note that for Martin's model of genre as a system of context, rather than as a text type, an instance of a genre is an instance of context, not an instance of language. That is, on this model, an instance of genre is not a text.
 This is very misleading, since it falsely claims that the modelling of context as semiotic is an innovation of Martin's model. In SFL, context is the culture modelled as a semiotic system. As demonstrated on this blog and elsewhere, Martin's model confuses context with diatypic varieties of language (registers/genres).

JOHN POMPEO
Chester County, PA native John Pompeo is a self-taught artist, "born with a crayon in my hand". However, he wasn't always a painter. He initially gravitated toward science, earning a BS degree in Biology. But ten years in the Pharmaceutical Industry as a biochemist left him feeling lost and longing to re-connect with the artist that had always been there, patiently waiting to re-emerge. In 2001 he decided to make a drastic career change and started a mural business, eventually creating smaller works on canvas. The events of 9/11 occurred after only a month into the career change, serving to strengthen his resolve and steer him in the direction of natural and peaceful subject matter.
The subjects he is inspired to paint usually have one thing in common…a sense of serenity. He is in love with the countryside surrounding his studio in idyllic Chester County, PA. The woods, creeks, rolling hills and farmland provide endless points of artistic exploration. Each new painting starts with a walk, bike ride or drive. Eventually, something makes him stop in his tracks as he enthusiastically tries to capture a feeling with photos, sketches and sometimes a Plein-air study. He considers these "notes" that he then take back to his studio to play with. His intention is always to produce pieces that inspire, awaken, and soothe, whether they are briefly being viewed in a gallery, or contributing to the harmonious energy of a client's living room.

Honoring the Past
Posted on August 24, 2016	by BR
I wanted to write a short blog on canon in the TCOTU galaxy. It's surprising to sit back and realize just how much history the stories to date have established. In the five books of the original This Corner of the Universe series, a major war redefines borders, a corporate conflict shifts the fundamentals of corporate warfare, and even an alien race is introduced. Those books also tease history of the Brevic Republic and the Secession Wars that splintered the Solarian Federation.
If you've been following my blogs recently, it's no secret that the first part of the new book, Hero of the Republic, covers portions of the Brevic-Hollaran conflict. In fact, one battle in HOTR is well-covered in the original series, as different threads of history often intersect. That provided an enormous challenge to not only write about the battle in a new and interesting way in the new book, but also pay proper respect to the original series and the canon it created.
I paid fanatical attention to ensure that regardless of what I wrote in Hero of the Republic, it would never conflict with the past canon of the TCOTU series. I think I've succeeded. Fortunately, when I wrote the first series, I always tried to keep an eye on the future. Hopefully that helped me write about the Brevic-Hollaran War from a completely different perspective (the young Caden Twist's) than the characters of the original series.
I hope readers of the first series find it not only entertaining and interesting but also rewarding to see how some of the events that happen or are discussed in those books are interpreted differently in HOTR and beyond… not because the canon of those events changes but because new characters are seeing those events unfold with different points of view.
Of course, Hero of the Republic isn't just a rehash of the Brevic-Hollaran conflict. It covers much more than that, ranging from the corporate systems inside the Lesser Magellanic Arm to the General Council on Bree, and culminates with the Republic's initiative to exact revenge upon the Commonwealth.
On a side note, the editing process for the new book is nearing completion. Pushing the Publish button is still on track for early September, the first or second full week of that month.

Hailing from New Zealand, Anna Church is a contemporary artist residing in Toronto, Canada. Church has built a career out of creating unique sculptures captured in fine art, photographic prints, Her multi-step process has a continual evolving nature, each new series she creates has a new identity and context but is bound within her aesthetic and 'sculptographic' medium.
Anna's experience is rooted in her background in Photography, editorial styling, graphic and textile design; all of which have contributed to her keen eye for colour stories and unique compositions, central themes in her art series. Her art career and design expertise has lead to being featured in platforms as diverse as Design Milk, Design Sponge, interior design magazines, the curated Collections of Saatchi Limited and The Affordable Art Fairs in; New York, Hong Kong, Battersea (London) and Amsterdam.
Toronto-based artist Anna Church has built a career out of creating unique sculptures turned into fine art prints. Her latest series, Paper Cuts, depicts compositions that Church has rendered to create frozen temporal moments in a process that is Church's most painterly to date, developed utilizing her strength for arrangement and styling. Real objects have been combined with photographs and reshot, creating a water- fall effect that leaves the viewer to determine the exact nature of what they are examining. By blurring the boundaries between nostalgia and surrealism, the new reality of these artworks juxtaposes the nature of authenticity and even memory.
Church started experimenting with how she could manipulate light, colour and scale through collage, resulting in this visual investigation of how an observer relates to a moment frozen in time. Her photographs of her own collages render the viewer's relationship to the subject matter one step removed, a distance that challenges a typical relationship to the essence of photography while simultaneously reinterpreting Anna's overriding technique: in all her series' the artwork is a capture of a moment in time before it is disassembled.


After 5 years of temporary exit during the time of Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) , has finally returned to the Catholic church . This was announced by CAN President, Samson Ayokunle.
In 2013, the Catholic Church temporarily left the association on grounds of engaging in activities that go against the values of the organisation and the will of Jesus Christ.
"Their return is one of the best things that have been happening since I was given the mandate to become the president of CAN. One of my visions for CAN is to bring our Catholic brothers and sisters back to the fold and I must acknowledge the support and understanding of my brother in Christ, Most Rev Ignatius Kaigama, President, Catholic Bishops' Conference of Nigeria and his team. I give kudos to all the principal officers, the directors and some Christian leaders in the country for their support and understanding while the dialogue lasted. It is our prayers that the body of Christ in the country will remain one forever in Jesus' name.

Canadians donate thousands to animal-rescue organizations in honour of Betty White
Image Source: https://www.cbc.ca/
Animal rescue organizations across Canada have received thousands of dollars in honour of the late Betty White, the much-loved actor and animal-rights advocate.
Monday would have marked White's 100th birthday, but she died on Dec. 31.
In her honour, a social media movement called the #BettyWhiteChallenge popped up encouraging people to donate to local animal shelters.
A spokesperson for the B.C. Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says it has received more than $64,000 in donations over the past few days, most of which came in Monday as a result of the challenge.
The Vancouver Humane Society says it has received $1,290 in donations so far today, nearly 10 times what it raised on this day last year.
"We are so grateful to everyone participating in this initiative," a spokesperson said. "We rely on donations to end animal suffering in all forms."
Susan Patterson, founder of the Vancouver-based Thank Dog I Am Out Rescue Society, said White used her influence to raise awareness and support organizations around the world during the course of her career.
"She would always have an animal in her hands when she was doing any kind of personal appearance," Patterson said. "She made it very clear she was an animal supporter."
Patterson said her society received $600 in donations within two hours of posting about the campaign online. As of about 10 a.m. PT Monday, its online fundraiser had received more than $1,200.
"In memory of [White's] legacy, I think a lot of people are going to support this," Patterson said.
The Ontario SPCA says it has received more than $50,000 in donations in honour of White since Friday. The Alberta SPCA said it took in around $4,000 while Manitoba's Tails of Freedom Rescue Inc. said it raised $3,575.
White was a tireless lifetime advocate for animals, from caring for those without homes to launching her own weekly TV show, The Pet Set, dedicated to her celebrity friends and their pets.
It isn't exactly clear who started the #BettyWhiteChallenge on social media shortly after White's death. However it began, the idea — to donate $5 to a local animal rescue organization in White's name on her birthday — quickly took off and drew support from celebrities like actors Mark Hamill and George Takei on Twitter.
"I've had many conversations with Betty about animal welfare, and I know she's looking down from heaven and really smiling," said Robin Ganzert, who leads American Humane, an animal welfare organization that White was involved with for more than 60 years.
"She'll be smiling on her birthday," she said. "And she'll be smiling about the lives she's changed."

In observation of the KSU's Year of Morocco in 2020-21, the ZMA presents Sahwha / Resurgence: works by Hicham Berrada. Originally trained as a scientist in Morocco, the work of Paris-based artist Hicham Berrada exposes the beauty that can result from disruptive interactions. Represented in this exhibition by six video works, these collisions of chemicals in solution or man-made interventions in the environment create an efflorescence—or rebirth—into something new, a quality conveyed by the Arabic word sahwha. The resulting dreamlike visions represent a resurgence of something mundane or unappreciated into something eerily beautiful. The museum will be closed when the campus is closed.

Mom Sells Home And Ditches All Her Possessions To Travel The Globe In A Motorhome With Her Family
Amelia Mavis Christnot
PA Real Life/Collect)
A mum-of-two has sold her £90,000 ($117,000) house and all her possessions, ditching the 9 to 5 to travel the world in a motorhome with her husband and young children after being rocked by a series of bereavements.
When Rosie Beeson, 27, held a demanding role as an HR specialist for the British Army and her husband Dan, 48, worked long hours as a production manager, life for them and their children, Monty, eight, and Winter, five, was hectic.
Their "wake up call" came after losing several beloved family members – including Dan's mum Lulu, 76, in July 2015, his dad Roger, 75, in July 2016, and Rosie's father Paul Hodgson, 65, who died after a seven month battle with liver cancer in December 2016 – prompting them to rethink their lives.
Rosie, of Ilkeston, Derbyshire, said: "We lost so many relatives, it felt like every few months there was another funeral to plan.
"Dan's mum left him some inheritance, so we bought our house – a three-bedroom terraced home – outright. We thought the kids would have that as savings one day when we were no longer around.
"I didn't inherit anything when my dad died and Dan and I realised it wouldn't have made the grief any easier. When you lose a parent, money isn't a comfort. It's the happy memories that get you through."

By then, Rosie had left her job to educate her children at home after Monty was diagnosed with autism, and she started wondering how she could swap conventional family life for a less regimented existence.
And in late 2017, spotting a Facebook page about parents who were home schooling their children while travelling the world in motorhomes, she began working on plans to join them.
Broaching the idea with Dan in April 2018, he was all for it, so they sold their house in February 2019, buying a £21,000 motorhome the next day and hit the road, travelling through France, Spain, Portugal and Morocco, where they are today.

Rosie said: "We realised we didn't want that 9 to 5 life, where we were all knackered with no energy for family time and no money for holidays.
"Our losses made us both realise that life is short and anything can happen in an instant.
"When we die money and material possessions won't make our children's grief go away. We'd far rather they were able to look back on their crazy childhood memories of travelling the world in a motorhome."

Living on the open road could not be more different to the rat race they were once part of.
Swapping the Army for more casual bar work about a year after having Monty to spend more time with him, life changed dramatically as he approached school age when he was diagnosed with autism – prompting the couple's decision to home educate him.
Rosie said: "We had tried to send him to nursery, but it just wasn't working. We then found an independent school where he did reception and year one class, but they believed he needed one to one care, which they didn't have the funding for."
Winter and Monty playing (PA Real Life/Collect)
She continued: "We thought that starting year two at a mainstream school would be detrimental to him, so we were thrown in at the deep end of home-educating.
"I never knew the community existed until I joined it, but everyone is so supportive and we decided to take the home education path with Winter too."
From then until 2018, Rosie taught the children in the day, while Dan went to work, often coming home exhausted after a long shift.

In April that year, she presented her husband with a radical plan, saying: "We sat down together one evening and I said, 'What do you think about selling everything to travel the world?'
"His eyes widened. I believe he thought I was joking, but I'd been properly researching and had answers for all his questions.
"It was a huge decision that we wouldn't make overnight, so we both went away to think."
The Migratory Bees on Instagram: "That sky! #nofilter #morocco #moroccotravel #unschooling #homeschool #homeed #wildlings #travelfamilyblog #travelfam #travelwithkids…"
She added: "In that time, Dan looked up everything there was to know about motorhomes and a week later, we sat down in that same room and he told me, 'Let's do it.'
"Not a single person we told said we were insane. Everyone thinks it's amazing."
So, that summer, the family started shedding possessions – either selling them on Facebook marketplace or donating them to charity – and did up their house ready for sale.

Saying goodbye to things, especially if they had sentimental value, was hard at first for Rosie, but she soon found it cathartic – even donating her wedding dress to charity.
Then, on 1 February 2019, they completed the sale of their house, buying a motorhome the next day.
"Our last day in the house was on 11 February," Rosie said. "Loads of friends and family came over to help us set the van up and take the last few bits to the tip."

"We all had a drink together and it was glorious weather," she said.
"When it was time to go, they all lined up down the road to wave us off. There were lots of tears, but the love and support we felt was incredible."
Driving south, the family took a ferry from Portsmouth to Saint Malo in France, before crossing the Pyrenees mountain range to Andorra, into Spain and then through Portugal.

"We had a really surreal moment driving from Arcachon to Lourdes in France," she said.
"We were hurtling down country roads through this endless, deadly flat land, when Dan and I looked up and suddenly there were the Pyrenees in front of us.
"They looked almost like a mirage. The snowy peaks were just there in the sky."

At the end of May 2018, they returned to the UK for a family wedding – finding their house-sitting stay "disconcerting," having completely embraced life on the road.
Their motorhome has two beds for the children, a pull down bed for the adults, a kitchen area, tables and chairs.
But it took some getting used to and Rosie recalled their initial journey across the Pyrenees, saying: ""We were still adjusting to motorhome living and finding a place for everything."

"By the time we went home for the wedding, though, we knew what we were doing and had made the van homely, by kitting it out with the kids' artwork, photos and tickets from the things we'd done, so it was hard to leave it.
"Now, the idea of being in a house just isn't for us. The kids call the motorhome home, and we get that same lovely feeling of relief and familiarity when we see it parked up, as you do pulling into your driveway after a long day."
Since leaving England again in September, the Beesons drove through Wales and Ireland, before exploring the Spanish desert, Gibraltar and Morocco, where they spent Christmas – keeping a Facebook blog, The Migratory Bees, about their travels, as they went.

19 June-early July –The family drove through Wales to Ireland and on to Northern Ireland
Early July- Back in England, the Beesons toured major cities including Liverpool, Nottingham, Leicester and Birmingham, caught up with loved ones and carried out maintenance on the motorhome. Rosie also temped in the gym, and made money selling handmade knitted items
Early September – The Beesons got back on the road, exploring more of Ireland

October – They visited Gibraltar, before driving through Portugal and across to Morocco
December 12 – The family arrived in Morocco
December 16 – Winter celebrated her 5th birthday in the Sahara
December 25 – The family enjoyed Christmas day in Ait Ben Haddou
Also writing a book about their adventures, they have made some incredible memories, and been moved by the camaraderie amongst travellers.
"There is a real feel that everybody helps each other," said Rosie. "Once Monty came to the rescue of a couple next to us who had locked themselves out, as he was small enough to climb through their motorhome's skylight.
"Another time we set up what we called the Beeson barbershop, cutting hair for anybody that wanted it on the campsite."
Trip highlights for Rosie so far have included a Game of Thrones tour of Ireland and spending Winter's fifth birthday in December riding camels in the Sahara Desert.
And she believes that seeing the world is providing a more valuable education for her children than they would ever receive in a classroom.
"Of course, fitting a family of four and the contents of a three bedroom house into a motorhome hasn't been without its challenges," she said.

"As he has autism, Monty thrives on routine and structure, so there are days when he finds things difficult," Rosie continued.
"But we make sure he regularly FaceTimes our relatives, so he has that contact and he's also keeping a journal of his adventures, which he loves doing."
Meanwhile, Rosie has totally adapted to minimal living.

"Our new life has made me realise how much we all accumulate," she said. "Now, I have two suitcases at my brother's house and all my other worldly possessions are in the motorhome.
"It's easy to attach sentimental value to things, but doing this has made me realise that I don't need to actually possess an object to be able to recall a memory."
Rosie now estimates her family can survive without working until September, when they will need to take odd jobs as they travel to boost their funds.

She said: "We've tried to be as savvy as possible, money-wise, so we can keep going for as long as possible.
"I don't worry about the future, as I've had nothing and worked my way out of it before, so I can do it again.
"People have said they wish they could afford to do what we've done, but we aren't rich, by any means. We just decided to live differently and not worry about material things as much."

She added: "This past year has been amazing for our family. The children have seen incredible places and met people from all over the world. It's really opened our eyes to what's important in life."
Some of their most special memories were made at Christmas, which was spent in Ait Ben Haddou, Morocco.
Rosie said: "Christmas has been difficult over the last few years, especially trying to celebrate the day when thinking of family who are no longer with us."
"But Christmas 2019 was the most relaxed we've ever had. The children only had a few presents, but they were so happy and grateful.
"We went out for a meal in a Chinese restaurant, and just took the day slowly. Of course we missed our family but we loved our plan-free day."
Now, though the family do not want to plan too rigidly, they hope to spend the next few months exploring Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Denmark.
Rosie concluded: "Dan and I used to spend our evenings exhausted at home, but now we sit outside our motorhome in a beautiful corner of the world and watch nature go by. I wouldn't change it for the world."
Winter, five, added: "I just love it! Our house has wheels and we can go anywhere in the whole wide world. I love seeing new things in all of the new countries, learning the languages and making new friends everywhere."
