Q: useState with react giving me issues with onChange handler for google recaptcha I am setting a state variable with useState whether or not a recaptcha has been clicked, but when I use the setState function my captcha variable doesn't pass ot my on submit, don't understand why, If I remove the setState the captcha variable passes just fine to my onSubmit.
If I remove setSubmitButton(false) everything works fine, not quite sure why.
When I run the setSubmittButton(false) captcha is endefined in my submit function when I dont have it there I get the correct captcha value in my submit function.
import React, { useState } from "react"
import { useForm } from "react-hook-form"

export default ContactForm

A: You should store the captcha value in a state variable (or ref) instead of a plain JS variable. The plain JS variable will reset to undefined when the component re-renders (after the setSubmitButton changes the state).

const [ captchaValue, setCaptchaValue ] = useState(null);

function onChange(value) {
    setSubmitButton(false);
    console.log("Captcha value:", value);
    setCaptchaValue(value);
}

const onSubmit = async data => {
    setLoading(true)
    console.log(captchaValue, "captcha value final");
    ...
}

Tip: Also, make sure to replace all the occurrences of the for html attributes to htmlFor. You can use an HTML-to-JSX transformer for automating such tasks.

If you are beginner in web designing, I think it is better to not care about what web designing was before HTML 5.
You just concentrate on HTML 5.

The city anchors the Las Vegas Valley metropolitan area and is the largest city within the greater Mojave Desert Las Vegas is an internationally renowned major resort city, known primarily for its gambling, shopping, fine dining, entertainment, and nightlife. The Las Vegas Valley as a whole serves as the leading financial, commercial, and cultural center for Nevada. LOCATION Las Vegas is situated within Clark County in a basin on the floor of the Mojave Desert and is surrounded by mountain ranges on all sides. Much of the landscape is rocky and arid with desert vegetation and wildlife. The peaks surrounding Las Vegas reach elevations of over 10,000 feet (3,000 m), and act as barriers to the strong flow of moisture from the surrounding area. HISTORY Compared with other cities in the western U.S., Las Vegas (literally, "the meadows" in Spanish) is a relatively recent arrival. Las Vegas was settled in 1905 and officially incorporated in 1911. for many years it was merely a small settlement in the middle of the desert. The construction of Hoover Dam in 1928 brought thousands of workers to the area. Nevada legalized gambling in 1931, and downtown Las Vegas became an entertainment center for the dam workers, with casinos and speakeasies. Business became so good that it surpassed Reno as the gambling capital of the world in less than 10 years. POPULATION Las Vegas is the 28th-most populated city in the United States, the most populated city in the state of Nevada. CLIMATE Las Vegas has a subtropical hot desert climate. This climate is typified by long, very hot summers; warm transitional seasons; and short, mild to chilly winters. Las Vegas is among the sunniest, driest, and least humid locations in North America. Las Vegas winters are short and generally very mild, with chilly daytime temperatures. December is both the year's coolest and cloudiest month, with an average daytime high of 13.7 °C. Winter evenings are defined by clear skies and swift drops in temperature after sunset, with overnight lows sinking to 3.9 °C or lower during the majority of nights in December and January. The summer months of June through September are very hot, though moderated by extremely low humidity. July is the hottest month, with an average daytime high of 40.1 °C. COMMUNICATION McCarran International Airport ( LAS) is the main airport serving the Las Vegas area. It is the 24th busiest airport in the world in terms of passengers and 8th in terms of takeoffs and landings. The airport is physically adjacent to the south end of the Strip, though none of the hotels are within walking distance. GOVERNMENT The city of Las Vegas government operates as a council–manager government. The Mayor sits as a Council member-at-large and presides over all of the City Council meetings. The City Manager is responsible for the administration and the day-to-day operations of all municipal services and city departments. The City Manager maintains intergovernmental relationships with federal, state, county and other local governments. ECONOMY The primary drivers of the Las Vegas economy are tourism, gaming and conventions, which in turn feed the retail and restaurant industries. The major attractions in Las Vegas are the casinos and the hotels, although in recent years other new attractions have begun to emerge.Most casinos in the downtown area are located on Fremont Street. An effort has been made by city officials to diversify the economy by attracting health-related, high-tech and other commercial interests. No state tax for individuals or corporations. A number of new industries have moved to Las Vegas in recent decades. Online shoe retailer Zappos.com (now an Amazon subsidiary) was founded in San Francisco but by 2013 had moved its headquarters to downtown Las Vegas. TOURISM Las Vegas annually ranks as one of the world's most visited tourist destinations.The city's tolerance for numerous forms of adult entertainment earned it the title of Sin City, and has made Las Vegas a popular setting for literature, films, television programs, and music videos.

"Downtown Las Vegas Area" is the name assigned by the Nevada Gaming Control Board NGCB which includes the Downtown Las Vegas area casinos and the Stratosphere Tower which is located 2 miles (3.2 km) from Fremont Street. The city of Las Vegas uses the term Downtown Gaming for the casinos near the Fremont Street Experience. The land is part of the 110 acres (45 ha) that were auctioned on May 15, 1905 when the city was founded.
Downtown competition
Currently downtown Las Vegas is the only place in Las Vegas where the casinos are clustered around an outdoor pedestrian zone. Caesars Entertainment has announced plans to build a similar venue with an observation wheel similar to the London Eye near the Flamingo.
In fiscal year 1988 the ratio of revenue for the Strip compared to downtown was less than 3:1. In FY2008 the ratio is over 10:1. However, downtown rode the massive increase in tourist spending from 2004 through 2007 that swelled the non-gaming revenue of the area. Non gaming revenue and income hit an all-time high in FY2006.

It's About Time is the debut studio album by American female R&B trio SWV, released by RCA Records on October 27, 1992 (see 1992 in music). It was certified triple platinum by the RIAA for more than three million copies shipped to store, and it spawned four hit singles with "I'm So into You", "Downtown", "Weak", and a remixed version of "Right Here/Human Nature." The latter two reached #1 on the R&B singles chart, with "Weak" being their biggest pop hit at #1. A remixed version of "Anything" appeared on the soundtrack of the film Above the Rim in 1994 and was released as the final single from It's About Time.
In 1993, the group earned 11 Billboard Music Award nominations for their debut album. In October 2004, I'm So into You appeared in popular videogame Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, playing on fictional new jack swing radio station CSR 103.9.
In 1996, the album was certified 3x platinum, for shipping over 3,000,000 albums in the U.S. alone.
*Initially issued without track 15, but was added to all subsequent CDs in April 1993

Capital may refer to:
Capital city, the area of a country, province, region, or state, regarded as enjoying primary status, usually but not always the seat of the government
Capital letter, an upper-case letter in a writing system
Capitals (typeface), a small-caps serif typeface
Illuminated capital in a manuscript

Capital sharp s (ẞ) is the majuscule of eszett. Sharp s is unique among the letters of the Latin alphabet in that it has no traditional upper case form. This is because it never occurs word-initially in German text, and traditional German printing (which used blackletter) never used all-caps. When using all-caps, traditional spelling rules required the replacement of ß with SS. However, in 2010, the use of the capital ẞ became mandatory in official documentation in Germany when writing geographical names in all-caps.
There have been repeated attempts to introduce a majuscule ß. Such letterforms can be found in some old German books dating back to the late 19th century and some later signage and product design. One of the best known examples is the East German 1957 Duden.
Inclusion in Universal Character Set
A proposal by Andreas Stötzner to the Unicode Consortium for the inclusion of capital double s in the Universal Character Set was rejected in 2004, on the basis that capital ß is a typographical issue, and therefore not suitable for character encoding. A reworked version of Stötzner's proposal was submitted on 25 April 2007 by DIN. The proposal suggested the Unicode name LATIN CAPITAL LETTER SHARP S. The proposal has been adopted and the character was added as Unicode character "ẞ" U+1E9E LATIN CAPITAL LETTER SHARP S when Unicode 5.1 was released, on 4 April 2008.

Capital is a type of good that can be consumed now, but if consumption is deferred, an increased supply of consumable goods is likely to be available later. Adam Smith defines capital as "That part of a man's stock which he expects to afford him revenue is called his capital." Capital is derived from the Latin word "caput" meaning head, as in "head of cattle". The term "stock" is derived from the Old English word for stump or tree trunk, i.e. something that grows over time. It has been used to refer to all the moveable property of a farm since at least 1510. In Middle Ages France contracted leases and loans bearing interest specified payment in heads of cattle.
In economics, capital goods, real capital, or capital assets are already-produced durable goods or any non-financial asset that is used in production of goods or services.
How a capital good is maintained or returned to its pre-production state varies with the type of capital involved. In most cases capital is replaced after a depreciation period as newer forms of capital make continued use of current capital non profitable. It is also possible that advances make an obsolete form of capital practical again.

Whatever it is that you do when you do what you're doing... it's a feeling that I want to stay. 'Cause my heart starts beating triple time, with thoughts of loving you on my mind. I can't figure out just what to do, when the cause and cure is you. I get so weak in the knees I can hardly speak. I lose all control and something takes over me. In a daze, your love's so amazing, it's not a phase. I want you to stay with me, by my side. I swallow my pride, your love is so sweet. It knocks me right off of my feet. I can't explain why your loving makes me weak. #SWV #Weak #Vevo #RandB #VevoOfficial

Located in Los Angeles, this is the second home our team has designed for this family. We previously designed the couple's first house together in the Bellaire neighborhood of Houston, Texas back in 2013.
We drew inspiration from the glamorous yet relaxed Cali lifestyle to create a California-Moroccan Glam style. For this new design, we incorporated aspects from their Houston home and upgraded them to fit into their current style in Los Angeles. The warm neutrals resonate with the couple's grounded world view and reflect California's natural beauty and relaxed lifestyle. The Indian and Moroccan influences create a soothing and welcoming vibe within the home that is perfect for meditation, relaxation and hosting guests.
We assisted with the move from Houston to LA by creating an inventory of what they had and worked that into the new design plan. We reupholstered several pieces to work in the new home, but lots of existing pieces already worked great in their new space.


I did not come up with this question.
The writers of the materials for the 2014 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity did not come up with this question. And yet, they chose it for the theme of the 2014 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity.
As the materials for the WPCU 2014 go to press, I find myself mulling over that question though. It is straight from the Apostle Paul. He is writing his first letter to the Church at Corinth and he starts his letter by giving thanks to God for the Corinthians and for all the ways they have been enriched in Christ Jesus, Never one to mince words, however, Paul then goes on to speak pointedly about their divisions, wanting them to be united in the same mind and the same purpose. He has heard tell that there have been quarrels among them.
Paul's question is a rhetorical one. He knows perfectly well and he knows that the Corinthians know perfectly well that Christ has not been divided. He is making the point that the Corinthian church has been dividing itself. Different parts of it have chosen to focus on different early Christian leaders as their source of authority and identity. By asking the rhetorical question of whether Christ Has Been Divided, Paul is hoping to have the Corinthians see the foolishness of their divisions and quarrels and focus on their unity in Christ. He wants them to remember that it is by God that there were called into the fellowship of his son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
A curious thing happens from time to time when I am out and about in the world – when I am away from my desk and any kind of Church related meeting or gathering. From time to time a person sitting beside me on a bus or plane or serving me in a store, restaurant or bank will ask me what I do for a living. The occupation of General Secretary of The Canadian Council of Churches is not easy to explain or always to understand. I get a wide assortment of responses to the explanation of what I do as a living and as a vocation. The most painful response however is one of shock and bewilderment. "But...", some people will say, " don't all the denominations believe, more or less, in the same things? Why do they need someone who brings them together? Why is your job even necessary?"
"Has Christ been divided?" Of course not. Have we divided Christ's Body the Church? Something to think about as the materials for the 2014 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, which will focus on Canada, go to press.


A while ago we wrote about the surfeit of options India have in their pace bowling ranks. Hopefully things are getting a little clearer.
For the record, we'd go with Zaheer Khan, RP Singh and Irfan Pathan, which would perhaps be a little harsh on Sreesanth if it weren't for the fact that you can guarantee that at least one of those three will be injured at any one time.
RP Singh today proved what a masterful swing bowler he already is. Australia were undone. Whether it was a left-hander or a right-hander, the ball arced away from the batsman. That curving path of the ball's somehow quite pleasing even if there isn't a wicket, isn't it?
Irfan Pathan aped him and took a couple of wickets and at one stage Australia were 61-5. It's that 2005 story again: the swinging ball undoes the Aussies. It seems so simple, but so few teams manage to put it into practice. The truth is, it's not as simple as just swinging the ball. This was superlative bowling.
One thing we're wondering is whether India could have produced this sort of bowling sooner if they'd had more preparation before the first Test. Or indeed any, because of course the warm-up match was pretty-much washed out and the bowlers didn't even see the ball.
Maybe the Indian Cricket Board would be better off arranging a more forgiving fixture list for their team and supporting them that way, rather than threatening to bring everyone home every time there's a disciplinary matter with one of their players.
RP Singh bowling like a seasoned veteran, at the grand old age of 22.
Looks like your comment about Sharma giving the Aussies problems on their tracks is being justified as well. I don't know who he's trying to fool with his goatee and claim to be 19 though, he's clearly no older than twelve.
Quoth the BCCI – "They are professional cricketers. Why should they need preparation?" Also (they didn't say this, but this is what they mean) "They are professional cricketers. Why should we provide medical care and rehabilitation when they are injured? They can afford their own doctors." It looks good now; let's hope they can all stay in one piece until the end of the tour.
That's one hell of a quote. Where was that from?
Uhh . . . my recollection was slightly off, but not by much. Here is the quote by BCCI secretary Niranjan Shah: These are professional cricketers and must learn to adapt quickly.".
There's quickly and there's quickly though, isn't there? That's still pretty ludicrous.

The Aesthetics of Disturbance
Anti-Art in Avant-Garde Drama
David Graver
Explores interconnections among early 20th-century visual, literary, and performance art
Theater: Theory/Text/Performance
The wild innovations of the early twentieth-century avant-garde have been widely celebrated for their influence on the course of experimental drama but rarely examined closely and systematically. Through an exploration of the plays from Germany, France, and England, The Aesthetics of Disturbance discusses modernism and the avant-garde, the relationship of drama to art movements such as expressionism, dada, and surrealism, and the interactions of visual, literary, and performance art.
Beginning with a survey of the history and theory of avant-garde art, David Graver critically juxtaposes important competing interpretations of the avant-garde, establishes basic distinctions between forms of avant-garde art, compares the aesthetic interests of the avant-garde to those of modernism, and discusses the relationship between the avant-garde and drama. Then, through close readings of the works of five preeminent avant-garde playwrights and visual artists—Oskar Kokoschka, Gottfried Benn, Raymond Roussel, Roger Vitrac, and Wyndham Lewis—he examines the innovations in dramatic literature carried out by these visionaries and finally relates them to the innovations in theater articulated by Brecht and Artaud. Graver argues that anti-art principles, most noticeable in the confrontational tactics of dada performance, can also be found within literary dramatic texts, where they create an "aesthetics of disturbance" that destabilizes the integrity of the work without allowing it to self-destruct.
David Graver is Assistant Professor of English and Comparative Literature, Columbia University.
Praise / Awards
"Original, important, well-done."
—Anthony Kubiak, Harvard University
"A corrective to the oft-repeated, over-simple idea that anti-art consists of the same destructive gesture repeated in different forms. This is a useful book that fills a gap, both conceptually and in terms of the figures discussed."
—Philip Auslander, Georgia Institute of Technology
"The ease with which David Graver crosses and expands disciplinary boundaries indicates both the depth of his sensibility and the sophistication of his scholarship."
—Theatre Journal
". . . illuminates an area of drama which has in the past been dismissed as experimental 'anti-art.' . . . Few graduate courses in theatre are devoted exclusively to anti-art movements of the early twentieth century, and this text would make an effective companion piece to avant-garde drama."

Sorry for the lack of blogs lately — been struggling a Bit to come up with some Bites ×× Here's one: What odds should we place on Bernhard Langer winning the PGA Tour Champions' Grand Slam this year? Long, sure, but not that long, right? He's won two of the first five (yes, five) and looks as clinical doing so as any golfer ever. At 59, he's truly amazing and I bet he makes a decent run at the Slam ×× The senior circuit schedule, especially when it comes to the majors, is très bizarre by the way. Two majors in a row this last fortnight, then a month with only two regular events, then three straight majors over the course of five weeks. The tour does know these guys are over 50, right? ×× Another Mackenzie Tour-PGA Tour Canada season is upon us with the schedule starting this week in Vancouver. As is the case every year, there will be some compelling storylines played out by the time September arrives and some surprises too, a la Dan McCarthy's record-breaking 2016 campaign. By way of a preview, here are 10 players to watch this year ×× I'm pleased that the Alena Sharp profile I wrote has been well received. However, the praise belongs with Sharp, as well as her partner/caddie Sarah Bowman, both of whom were very honest and open in interviews. For Sharp to reshape and rejuvenate her career in her mid-30s on an LPGA Tour filled with so many great young players is really a remarkable feat.
Anyone in Jordan Spieth's camp should have taken that new wand he started using at the Byron Nelson (where he missed the cut) and thrown it into a lake. A 23-year-old wizard of the rugs who's been using the same putter since he was 15 gaming a replacement? Did he learn nothing from Tiger Woods going to that, ugh, Nike model? Old faithful was back in Spieth's bag this week for his title defence at Colonial and low and behold he tied for second. Sanity, evidently, prevailed ×× I did not "get out and golf" on Sunday. I will be getting out and golfing today. That count? ×× I giggle when a golf course is lauded for being designed in such a manner as to "protect and preserve environmentally sensitive areas." In other words, the architect couldn't do what he really wanted and this layout is his handcuffed version. Like, how about finding another site? ×× It's hard to fathom just how poor a putter Vijay Singh has become, especially since he's always dedicated himself so hard to improvement. There can't be anything else in sport like putting — even some of the most talented pros in the game are downright horrible at it.
I can't get enough of Jon Rahm. The skill, the aggression, the emotions worn on his sleeve — he's the most entertaining PGA Tour player for me to watch these days despite having only (only!) one victory at this point. He can't be considered for the tour's Rookie of the Year Award — his eligibility was last year when he turned pro halfway through the season and then played seven events — but he could very well have the best first full season (OK, second best) in the last 30 years. For comparison's sake, let's look at some of the tours top ROY award winners. Five of them won majors in their freshman season since the inception of the award in 1990. In order, they are John Daly (1991), Ernie Els (1994), Ben Curtis (2003), Todd Hamilton (2004) and Keegan Bradley (2011). Of those five, only Bradley and Hamilton won multiple times in their first year, with Bradley winning the Bryon Nelson before his victory at the PGA, and Hamilton taking the Honda before his triumph at the Open Championship. It should be noted, though, that Hamilton and Els were far from rookie pros, as both had won multiple times in other parts of the world — Hamilton in Japan and Els in his native South Africa — before taking up PGA Tour membership. In fact, Els played only 11 PGA Tour events the year he won the award once his U.S Open victory afforded him a card. Daly had three more top 10s, including a solo third at the Tour Championship, in addition to his surprising '91 PGA win, while ultimate long-shot Curtis had only two other top 20s to back up his Open win in '03. Outside of Bradley and Hamilton, three more ROY winners won multiple times in their first season: Robert Gamez (1990), Tiger Woods (1996) and Carlos Franco (1999). Like Hamilton and Els, Franco was not a true rookie either, and had won many professional tournaments in South America and Japan before earning his PGA Tour card. Woods, of course, turned pro only in September of '96 and after a T60 in Milwaukee and a T11 at the Canadian Open he went T5-T3-1-3-1 in a five-tournament stretch over six weeks to close the season. It's almost impossible to say he's not the tour's best ROY winner, both because of that stretch but also because of what would soon follow. However, Rahm, 22, who this time last year was playing in the NCAA Championships, is nonetheless making a name for himself as a first-year player. So far he has a phenomenal, final-hole-eagle win at Torrey Pines, a T5 at Pebble Beach, a third at the WGC Mexico event, a runner-up to World No. 1 Dustin Johnson at the WGC Match Play, a T10 in Houston, a fourth at the Wells Fargo and a T2 last week at Colonial. Furthermore, he's risen to ninth in the Official World Golf Ranking, and of all past ROY winners only Els, with five years of professional golf under his belt prior to 1994, ended his first PGA Tour season inside the top 10. Even Woods was only 33rd, although he had only seven events counting) And who among you believes Rahm won't win again this season? Or who among you would be surprised if he were to win one of the year's three remaining majors? It's likely that he won't, but to have accorded himself so well as to be one of the favourites at the U.S. Open, Open and PGA — and he will be a betting favourite — is probably proof enough that his first full calendar season as a professional is shaping up to be one of the best ever.
Obscure thought of the week: I love these people with a home for sale and knee-high grass/weeds filling the front yard. Maybe run a mower over it for some curb appeal?

My daughter is almost seven, and takes any and every opportunity to read. She will happily get through a book a day, and we make weekly library visits to replenish her supply. Current favourites are anything by Holly Webb, the pervasive Rainbow Fairies, Mr Gum, and the first 'Little House' books. She's flown in wishing chairs and climbed up faraway trees and she and I are working our way through the Narnia series. Her reading is fluent and sophisticated; she's done with picture books.
Or so I assumed. Yet when I read to my children, my daughter invariably chooses a picture book, and listens enraptured. She never says, "too babyish" or "picture books are boring". She listens to the story and investigates the illustrations with as much fascination as her non-reading younger brother. Watching her the other evening, I thought about this enduring appeal of picture books to older, literate children, and their presence in my adult life. It's almost as if there are seven ages of picture books.
My daughter's first 'reading' experience was My Bunny Book. It's a cloth book in bright colours, containing different sound and touch effects – crinkly bunny ears, boingy bunny leaps, strokable bunny fur. It epitomises the first age of picture books – tactile, dribble- and rip-proof, designed for chewing, grabbing, scrunching and bashing. This age is all about wonder, discovery and curiosity, laying the vital foundations for a book-reading life.
The second age is the golden age of picture books. Now it's all about real pleasure and appreciation – sharing books, understanding and discovering the absolute joy that stories can give. It's the age of "Again!" "Read it!" and "More!" when 12 pages of short sentences or even single words become embedded within a parents' consciousness, and libraries come into their own. It's when you don't just read, but talk about stories, characters and illustrations together, and children delight in discovering that there are other children (human or animal) that are like them.
My son is learning to read, and loves spotting words he can read when I'm reading to him. In this third age of picture book reading a new world opens up, where a child can take control of their reading, and become more independent in their enjoyment of stories. It also adds another layer of interaction between adult and child – when I read to my son now, we share the experience in a more active way, and he can start to make the telling his own by using a different voice to mine.
This third age is also about stories taking on deeper meanings and enabling children to deal with life challenges and concepts. Of course such issues can be approached using picture books when they're younger, but it seems that during this third age picture books offer a safe, non-threatening way to explore concepts and feelings that children can't articulate. Recently, I read my children The Big Bag of Worries by Virginia Ironside, and I have rarely seen my daughter sit so completely still. I could almost feel the intensity of her interest in it, and it made me realise that perhaps there were anxieties that she felt unable to share which were being addressed by the book.
Now comes the pleasure of picking up a favourite picture book and actually being able to read it to yourself, rather than waiting for someone else to do it for you. The book is there to discover or re-discover for yourself, completely on your own. A child in this fourth age of picture-book reading has moved into that wonderful and everlasting realm of Reading My Book.
This is where my daughter is now, a fluent, voracious reader, working her way through the middle-grade bookshelf. And yet she returns again and again to picture books, perhaps to re-create that security and comfort she felt as a baby or toddler being held close by her parents, when she didn't have the responsibilities or requirements of school or friendships to manage and negotiate. She enjoys me telling her that Dear Zoo was one of her favourites, or that she loved the Blue Kangaroo books, in the same way as she loves looking at her baby photos.
These are the adult ages. The sixth is all about nostalgia – I have shelves full of books that I owned as a child, the oldest being One Morning in Maine, which was given to me in 1973 on my third birthday. Many I have read to my own children, all three of us feeling the specialness of 'mummy's books when she was a little girl'. I have my own childhood memories and feelings bound up in them – I often find that memories are triggered by illustrations in a favourite picture book – a children's author's equivalent of Proust's madeleines, perhaps. Which leads me on to the seventh age – the reading of picture books to one's own children, re-experiencing old ones, and discovering new ones.
I have written picture books, blogged about them, and read them to my children every day of their lives so far. And yet I have underestimated their power. Picture books lay the foundations of our future and become a constant in our lives, as enduring as the seven ages of life itself.

Brilliant blog Lucy! I had that Topsy and Tim hospital book too! It's interesting about your children returning to picture books - personally I believe that people are never too old for stories with pictures.
Thanks Paula - I agree! I was tempted to write about books with pictures for older readers (e.g. A Monster Calls), but the post would have been three times as long!
I was just about to make the same point as Paula.
For a long time there seemed to be a cut off point for pictures in books - at around the age of seven. Now illustrations are popping up everywhere and graphic novels for all ages are gaining popularity. I am delighted to see this, I love illustrated stories of all kinds and I also think that pictures can help comprehension plus they can add another dimension to the text.
Thanks for this post Lucy - I enjoyed reading about your personal experiences with your children.
Thanks for such a thoughtful and thought provoking post, Lucy.
Thank you Jane! Much appreciated.
Thank you for a lovely celebration of picture books! My children are 11 and 9 and they still love picture books, especially the longer length ones like Tim All Alone, or the more complex ones like Michael Rosen's Sad Book. Like your daughter, they never complain that they are 'too babyish' and my 11 year old, who is also into Manga, just sees any graphic novel as an extension of the picture book format.
Thanks so much Abie. I think the recent 'discovery' of graphic novels by the literary establishment is an indication that picture books endure into adulthood, albeit in a different guise.
Lovely, thought-provoking blog, Lucy. When I read your 'Fourth Age' about children reading their own picture books, I smiled as it reminded me of an 'Inbetween Age': when a toddler sits alone with an upside-down picture book, 'reading'. That too warms my heart.
By the way, loved seeing your old picture books.
Thank you Paeony. That is a lovely image indeed! The picture was a very small selection of those with particular meaning - I wish I could have crammed them all in!
I really enjoyed this post- my ten year old ( a 'proper' book reader) always grabs the picture book I've just been reading to my six year old once we've read it and pores over it with relish.
Thank you Guy. I'm sure there are psychological studies on this somewhere. I just love that I had assumed my daughter was no longer interested - seems she has a few more years left judging by your 10 year-old!
And what about those books you discover as a parent that you know you would have loved as a kid. It's fun being a vicarious child when choosing books for your children!
I don't think that children, left to themselves, do tend to think picture books babyish once they move on to 'proper' (uech!) books; it's the adults who tell them, or insinuate, that. You often hear parents saying "that's too babyish for you now," when a child of six or above picks up a picture book, and that is such a shame. A thought-provoking post. Thank you.
Thanks Pippa. I'm sure you're right - you hear adults refer to 'baby books'. But my two still enjoy reading My Bunny Book even now!
Your blog highlights very well the psychological power of the picture book, underestimated greatly by a number of adults who see them as merely toys. What powerful and complex objects they are!
I couldn't agree more Moira!
Thanks, Lucy. My nine-, six- and five- year olds are all very into picture books (and the 9yo and 6yo can write them brilliantly, too, with fun page turns and everything). But I think they went through a separate stage too where they ditched them for a little while whilst they were showing that they could read chapter books independently, and then they came back to them. But we are all talking about a very biased selection of children here, with our own children. What is even more heartening is when I go into schools and do author visits and the children still really like reading picture books in Year 6... Some schools clearly make a point of carrying on enjoying picture books with older children, which is great. And what a great thing to then continue on with illustrated stories and graphic novels. Last year I found How Tom Beat Captain Najork and His Hired Sportsmen by Russell Hoban and Quentin Blake and it stays by my bed so I can look at it whenever I want. It's fab. Thanks for the post, Lucy.
Absolutely Juliet. If I'd had more space I would have talked about the Year 5s and 6s I taught who enjoyed nothing more than a picture book read at the end of the school day. Captain Najork is another of my childhood favourites!
Wonderful post! Every parent and teacher should read this! You explained it all so clearly.
Thank you so much Penny.
Great article. You were spot on!!
Beautifully written, Lucy. On Friday evening I shall be reading my picture books to an 'Active Retirement' group in Omeath. You're never too old for picture books, in my opinion (and experience).
Fantastic, Malachy! What a great idea.
Malachy thank you so much. It sounds like there's a whole new article waiting to be written from your experience on Friday!
I love your delineation of stages, which just affirms my suspicion that picture books offer the young and young at heart a LIFETIME of reading pleasure.

Tag: Santana
I don't know about you, but I've barely gotten ANY sleep this week and this whole "wrestling" thing feels a bit small and inconsequential given what's going on in the US right now. Hopefully by the time we get to the PPV on Saturday the votes will be tallied and we can all focus on fun things again, but there's no doubt that AEW has a big uphill battle here with this Go Home show leading into Full Gear. Do they manage to put on something memorable despite the world being laser focused on politics this week, or will it get lost in the shuffle like everything else? Let's find out!!
We begin the episode with Dasha interviewing Jericho (flanked by Jake Hager and Santana) who spends a good few minutes praising Jake Hager for his win at Bellator last week which hey, good for him! It was certainly better than in his last match where he punched a dude in the groin and it got called a No Contest, but before Jericho can finish singing his praises, MJF comes in and interrupts them to tell him how much he appreciates the opportunity he's been given. Jericho, not too happy about being interrupted, doesn't share this enthusiasm and in fact claims that MJF lacks something vital to be part of The Inner Circle; a Killer Instinct. The same Killer Instinct that got Jake fifteen stiches in a fight he ended up winning and earned Santana his reputation as a ruthless fighter in the world of wrestling. MJF? Well until he proves otherwise, Jericho believes he's just soft, and that's just not going to work for them. MJF doesn't like any of these accusations and storms off; leaving Jericho to head to the announcers desk as he'll be calling matches all night. I kind of wish they'd also let Santana and Hager get sit at the desk too, but too many heels running the show and with Eric Bischoff having JUST shown up last week, people might start getting flashbacks to Souled Out and nobody wants that.
Sammy Guevara & Ortiz Vs. MJF & Wardlow
Okay, quick question. Perhaps I'm just hearing things, but they played the Inner Circle's theme song here for Ortiz and Sammy's entrance… and doesn't it kind of sound like a knock off NWO theme? I don't recall ever hearing it before as they always used Jericho's song Judas, and it just reminded me of that; especially when it starts with a deep voiced dude saying THE INNER CIRCLE which is not unlike how the NWO's theme starts. In any case (before I go on any OTHER weird tangents), let's talk about the match itself. More than any other story line for this upcoming PPV, including the Moxley match, the tag titles, and ESPECIALLY Sammy's feud with Matt Hardy, the unrest within The Inner Circle brought about by MJF's attempts to join them has been rather compelling so far and this match being the first flare up of this tension means it will certainly have consequences for the story on Saturday and going forward. Now this might be a tag match, but for the most part it's really all about Sammy and MJF with Wardlow and Ortiz being there to give the other two an opportunity to strut their stuff. Sammy in particular looks VERY good here with an early hot tag that has him overcoming both Wardlow and MJF with relative ease. The guy has had a ROUGH time of it the last few months with controversies, botches, and injuries overshadowing everything else, but his performance here is a strong first step for him to regain his clout as one of wrestling's rising young stars. MJF looks good here as well, but for most of the match he's fighting with the upper hand and isn't really pushing himself. He's has had his share of rough matches, but by design he's never really excelled at that as he gets desperate way to quickly and resorts to cheap tricks at the slightest hint of a disadvantage, which goes towards Jericho's assessment of him being soft. He's not to be discounted however even if he starts to waiver under pressure, and once it's Sammy and MJF alone in the ring, the both of them start to work out their frustrations on each other in an excellent display of acrobatic violence. Sammy ends up proving himself here as he actually manages to get the advantage and nearly gets a pin on MJF, and even though Wardlow breaks it up its clear that Sammy might just be the better fighter. Ortiz gets back in the ring after dealing with Wardlow on the outside and him and Sammy get MJF on the turnbuckle. They are setting up a tandem Superplex, but Wardlow comes in and suplexes all three of them with his mighty muscles, and the best part of this is MJF's over the top selling as he seems to have taken the brunt of the damage while Wardlow poses for the audience. All of this is fun and it does a good job of setting up the important dynamics between these wrestlers, but sadly things start to go off the rails at the end. Sammy seems poised to win this if he can just get back himself and MJF back into the ring, but then Matt Hardy attacks him with a chair and not even a minute later MJF gets Ortiz into his Salt of the Earth arm bar where he taps out almost immediately. MJF and Wardlow win the match and start heading for the back, but then MJF breaks off and sprints towards Jericho at the announce table; spearing him in his seat and having to be dragged away by Wardlow as Jericho gingerly gets up and smiles at his assailant. Perhaps this man DOES have a Killer Instinct and Jericho will be surprised at what happens on Saturday! The ending drags the match down considerably for me, but I liked the performances of everyone involved and MJF proves once again just how good he is at playing a character while also putting on a great wrestling match. Presumably he's going to win on Saturday or some other shenanigans will ensue as I doubt they're going to drop this storyline with a clean Jericho victory, and I can only hope a long convoluted character drama already set up for all five (soon to be six!) members of the Inner Circle; like Shakespeare but with more chair shots!
With just one more show before Full Gear and Dynamite has done a good job so far of building up the matches for the show. If it wasn't so simple you'd almost call it a stroke of brilliance that they came up with the World Title Tournament to drive the story between Adam Page and Kenny Omega, and with that as well as the Tag Title match, they've got the solid backbone needed to make a show feel important and the rest of the card has been built up with interesting feuds like Kingston and Moxley… as well as less interesting ones like Matt and Sammy. In any case, does this show present a bunch of fun matches for us to enjoy while also building up to the big show that's right around the corner!? Let's find out!!
Well actually before that, this will be the last thing I post before the election of 2020 is over and done with, so if ANYONE reading this the day I post it hasn't done so yet, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS SACRED, VOTE FOR JOE BIDEN! He won't fix everything (no politician ever will on their own), but we need to do our part to fix the problems that this country is facing, and step one is getting the SCROTUS booted out of office; kicking and screaming if necessary. Alright, NOW let's find out!!
We begin the episode with Dasha in the back trying to interview Wardlow, but the big guy can't get a word in edgewise as MJF talks for him and ASSURES Dasha that Wardlow winning the tournament would mean that MJF wins the tournament and that any title Wardlow wins will be MJF's title by right of whatever weird contract they have. Seems like Wardlow is consistently getting the short end of the stick here, but we ARE in the middle of a pandemic and a job is a job I suppose. Sammy interrupts MJF and things get heated as Sammy makes it crystal clear how little he cares for the smarmy jerk, but MJF is not easily intimidated and the two agree to disagree; at least for the time being. MJF doesn't have time for this anyway! He's got a match to watch!
Wardlow Vs. Hangman Adam Page – AEW World Title Tournament Semi-Final
Wardlow is accompanied to the ring by MJF
The big event of the last few weeks has been the tournament to determine the number one contender for the AEW World Title, and so we waste no time getting back to it. Hangman is also not wasting any time because a half second before the bell rings, he runs towards Wardlow and lands a drop kick right as the match begins. Wardlow then takes Adam Page apart for a bit, but he doesn't have the size advantage here that he did against Jungle Boy which means he's going to have to step up his game. A spear outside of the ring to Page does the job pretty well which gives Wardlow a change to gain some heat, but there's almost no mystery as to who's going to win this match considering that Kenny Omega is on the other side of the bracket. Then again, it'd be a good twist to have Wardlow win and somehow get the belt! Heck, they just planted the seed with MJF's interview that started the show, so why not give it a shot? As for the match itself, it's pretty good! I wouldn't say it's significantly better than his match against Jungleboy, but that was already a solid show opener and the same is true here. Wardlow goes for some sort of move while Page is on the top rope, but while he smugly tries to pander to the audience, Page grabs Wardlow's arm, falls back behind the ropes, and starts cranking on it. This is the turning point for the match as Wardlow is unable to get his momentum back and finally loses all of it with an attempted dive from the top rope that misses Page by a mile. They start trading strikes and clotheslines to no avail so Wardlow lands a kick and transitions into a German Suplex which Page manages to flip out of and the two end up tumbling outside the ring. After a few more spots including a Moonsault from the top rope to the ground, Page goes they start trading finishes to bring this match to a close. Hangman goes for the Buckshot Lariat and misses which allows Wardlow to take him down with a lariat of his own. Wardlow only gets a two count so he lands the F10, but before he can capitalize with another pin attempt, Page rolls out of the ring. THEN things get scary as Wardlow is on the middle rope with Page on his shoulders, but Page fights out of it and they both fall back; landing hard on the mat below. Thank goodness Wardlow wasn't on the top rope or less there would have been a CRATER in the middle of the ring, but he's now in no condition to fight back and so Page finally lands not one but TWO Buckshot Lariats to get the three count and advance to the finals of the tournament. It wasn't particularly memorable is perhaps the worst you can say about the match, but both guys did their job and it was a very good way to open the show!

King Indulf: kings of Scotland
Indulf, son of Constantine II, was King of Alba (Scotland) from 954-962. It is symptomatic of the Scandinavian authority in Scotland at the time that his name and that of his two sons Olaf and Culen were Norse in origin.
St Oran's Chapel, Iona
Indulf's reign marked a period of renewed Viking aggression and there are some records of the destruction of a Viking fleet by Indulf at Cullen, Banffshire. Some sources, which may be unreliable, said that he had been King of Strathclyde in the reign of his predecessor (Malcolm I).
Edinburgh retaken
The Chronicles of the Kings of Alba said, "In his time oppidium Eden (Edinburgh) was evacuated, and abandoned to the Scots right up to the present day." Some sources have this retaking of Edinburgh from the Northumbrians (lost after the Battle of Brunanburh) as a single event, others have it as part of a longer and wider process.
Killed by a Norse host
Unsurprisingly the place of his death is also a matter of debate. Professor Dauvit Broun of Glasgow University says, "He was killed in 962 by a Norse host at Invercullen, probably Cowie near Stonehaven (which was important strategically) or Cullen Banffshire. He may be buried on the Island of Iona.
Indulf was succeeded by Dubh, son of Malcolm I.
