Cookie Wrapping Machine

From flow wrapping and packing products, we offer a solution for every application. We package a diverse variety of products including, cookies, baked goods, chocolate bars, confections, vegetables, medical items, and many more. For this article, we will be focusing on our cookie wrapping machines. We have three of those from our very own SleekWrapper, and these are the following;
First off, we have the SleekWrapper 40, our entry-level wrapping machine that is ideal for not only packaging cookies. It is also ideal for waffles, crackers, and other baked foods. This flow wrapping machine can produce up to 100 packages of cookies in just a minute's time coupled with a maximum web width of 15.5". It is built with a stainless steel frame construction and has a simple design for a smoother and easier set-up, operation, and maintenance. This economical machine offers its users quick changeover and adjustment. It is also operated by four servo drives for a clear-cut product positioning and smooth acceleration and deceleration.

This machine is a bit advanced compared to our Sleek 40 since it is built for 24/7 environment. Similar to Sleek 40, it also has four servo motors for a quick and easy changeover and adjustment and as well reduction of product and film waste. Aside from cookies, our Sleek 45 can also package other products. These include granola bars, home goods, hardware, fruits, healthcare items and more.

Sensory-Friendly Programs Come to the Brandywine
By: Laura Westmoreland, Associate Educator
Most new education programs at Brandywine develop from ideas inspired by participant feedback from past events or conversations between staff and museum visitors. Others ideas develop simply by knowing, relating to, and understanding the interests and needs of those who are frequent visitors to the Brandywine River Museum of Art.
This year when developing new programming we wanted to focus on the organization's commitment to becoming more accessible and opening its doors to new and broader audiences. This raised the question: How does a museum create programs for audiences who are not already visiting?
One such audience for us was families with children on the autism spectrum and sensory processing disorder. While the Museum is no stranger to families and children – with popular programs such as First Sundays for Families and Children's Read-Aloud – there are aspects to visiting a museum that can be overwhelming to individuals who are sensitive to noise, crowds, and new environments. We found our answer by co-creating a program with a team of families and professionals who are already living and working with people on the autism spectrum and with sensory processing disorder.
PNC Arts Alive First Sundays for Families event with Funicular Circus
First inspired by impressive sensory-friendly programs at Walters Art Museum, Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, and the Smithsonian Institution, we looked for colleagues at Philadelphia-area museums who already had programs like the one we wanted to create. Educators at The Franklin Institute invited me to attend one of their sensory-friendly events, and connected me with Dr. Fern Silverman and Andrea Tyszka from the Occupational Therapy program at Salus University. With generous funds granted by PECO, Brandywine hired Fern and Andrea as advisors to help us develop our own programs at the Museum.
Students from Salus University and Neumann University work together to create visual tools for our event
For our next step, we used the power of social media to put out a call out for local families, therapists, educators, and other advocates to join a volunteer advisory committee. A broad and diverse representation from our community responded, allowing our web of resources and expertise to expand. We held our first advisory committee meeting in February and listened to the needs and ideas of a variety of parents and professionals representing a wide array of sensory differences and their goals for visiting a museum. During this time I also received a tremendous outpouring of support and advice from other community members, including staff from other arts organizations working on accessible programming, leaders of local support groups, and advocates from the autism community.
With new ideas in hand and a strong corps of volunteers including occupational therapy graduate student from Salus University and education students from Neumann University, we offered our first PECO Sensory-Friendly Saturday in March. Ideas we implemented included opening the museum early to reduce crowds, providing hand-held fidgets and tactile experiences in the galleries, visually communicating information before and during the event, and giving families options for how to participate. Because members of our advisory committee felt shared ownership of the program, they provided some of best advertising for the first event, through sharing information within their own professional circles and through word of mouth between families.
Our time spent listening to and planning with our team of experts paid off and the event was a success. Families knew that program had been created with them, not only for them. This summer we have continued to use feedback from our new friends in the community to develop Sensory-Friendly Museum Packs, which provide families tools and tips for when they visit the museum during general hours. We are also preparing for our second PECO Sensory-Friendly Saturday on Saturday, October 14, and we plan to give families early and sensory-friendly access to the Museum's famous train display on Saturday, January 6.
Brandywine River Museum of Art's Christmas Train Display
Including the voices from our advisory committee and colleagues was an invaluable resource in creating a meaningful new program at the Brandywine River Museum of Art for people with autism and sensory-processing disorder. But better yet, as we continue to plan programs for the larger and more general population, we will now have more diverse voices chiming in.
If you'd like to participate in this community effort or learn more about Brandywine's sensory-friendly programs, you can contact me at 610-388-8120 or LWestmoreland@brandywine.org. Learn more about accessibility at Brandywine here.

We raised in excess of ₹ 10,000!. We were able to gift sweaters to 42 students from two primary schools at Almora, costing ₹ 8,820.
The children were so excited to receive the sweaters. It is only with the support of people like yourself that we are able to make this happen. It is such a wonderful gift to see the joy and pleasure the children get from their presents.

As you may have already figured out I am in the process of self-publishing my very first book! Now I think I should start off with a small disclaimer; it is not a piece of literary genius!
If you have kept up with my blogs and (hopefully) enjoyed them then you will recognise and enjoy what I have written. I took an easy route (or what I thought would be an easy route) by picking and choosing blog posts I liked and making each a chapter in my book. I then expanded on all and as I did the book formed. Initially as I did this my point was not to write a book I just enjoyed expanding on my thoughts and keeping them all together. Soon enough I reached 80+ pages and decided to try out self-publishing.
This book is a non-fiction self-help book with advice I have been given and learnt about over the past few years. It isn't a thick book, I am not the next J.K. Rowling however it does mean a lot to me. This book sums up one big and life changing chapter in my life. As I begin the next chapter in my life I will post more on this blog and hopefully write up another book.
I will post up the link when it is available to buy and I would love for you to buy it, see what you think and give me feedback. I am hoping for it to become available at the end of this year or the beginning of 2018.


There's only one meeting today, with a hammock overlooking Monte Gordo.
There's only one meeting today, with a hammock overlooking Monte Gordo. Your biggest, and only, decision is how good you're willing to let this get. Grab a chilled coconut and breathe in, really feel, what it's like to live the dream. You didn't get here, listening to the waves by the Gulf of Mexico, by staying in the lines. Recuperation is as easy as nourishing your soul in this your organic, ecological retreat.
Take the afternoon to explore Azucar, leaving your white-washed world of wide-slat wood flooring, and simply elegant furniture. Stop by the salon to clear your mind. Meander to a nearby archaeological site. Perhaps you grab a book at la biblioteca, then claim your own private piece of tranquillity from the endless deserted beaches along the shore.

How to create AI in a 2D game?
1 How to create AI in a 2D game?
2 How to get AI correct in a game?
3 Can you get AI to do something like this?
4 Do you need a book to create AI?
5 Are there any video games with artificial intelligence?
6 How is the AI model for game architecture?
7 Which is better a 2D game engine or a 3D game engine?
8 Do you need a physics engine to make a 2D game?
Also, since each control is now under individual control, you can end up selecting a flee target position while still having the attack state control your guns. You can strafe an enemy while still conserving engine power because of a coolant leak.
How to get AI correct in a game?
The main aspect of getting AI correct is by thinking about what behaviours you want the character to have and how this can be achieved realistically. So for a basic spaceship enemy, I'd imagine the possible actions it could carry out would be to: And when could these actions happen?
Can you get AI to do something like this?
You can literally get away with something like this: The main aspect of getting AI correct is by thinking about what behaviours you want the character to have and how this can be achieved realistically. So for a basic spaceship enemy, I'd imagine the possible actions it could carry out would be to:
Do you need a book to create AI?
You're also going to need to use Finite State Machines to know which state your AI is in and what appropriate decisions are available. If this is your first time developing AI, you don't have to worry about things like the state pattern, behavioural maths or even get a book on the subject.
Are there any video games with artificial intelligence?
However, many video game developers are hesitant to build advanced A.I. into their games in fear of losing control of the overall player experience.
How is the AI model for game architecture?
AI: Movement – Coordinated Movement, Dynamic Slots Slots can be modeled so that they are dynamically positioned relative to the anchor instead of being xed { This is useful for sports games (e.g., play strategies) In this approach, the formation can change over time 1. Characters can follow prede ned paths, or 2.
Which is better a 2D game engine or a 3D game engine?
Contrast this with 2D games; simple 2D games can be made in minutes. The code is far simpler, and the resources are 2D—which are much less difficult to create. There is a reason why most indie games are 2D, flat games like platformers, top downs, or isometrics are just better for small or solo teams.
Do you need a physics engine to make a 2D game?
Among other things, qualifying engines do not require an integrated development environment, any sort of visual editing or compositing of game assets, or a physics engine. Likewise, a high-level tool which allows assembly of 2D games from assets fits even if it has no coding interface.

For some of us, taking care of our cancer patients involves the physical care. We might recommend surgery for our prostate cancer patients. Or we might order a certain chemotherapy regimen for a woman with ovarian cancer. Of course, we know that their mental health is extremely important, but we tend to focus on our area of expertise.
However, new research published in the journal Cancer (published by the American Cancer Society) stresses the importance of our patients' mental health, especially in terms of suicide risk.
They compared the incidence rates of suicide among genitourinary cancer patients with those of the general U.S. population. Using data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, they looked at information for patients with prostate, bladder, kidney, testis, or penile cancer from 1988 to 2010.

Nice to see the imperial family members gathering for this lovely couple wedding.Thank you for the pics.The bride style is typical Japanese .
This is not the tiara from the parure that she received on her eighteenth birthday - I believe those jewels had to be returned to the imperial vault on her marriage, am I correct? This must be a new piece of jewelry.
It's actually an old necklace from her mother's collection.
Crown princess Masako looks amazing in red,I would like to see more pictures !!
Not a fan of the bride's dress,and her tiara is strange.
It isn't the prettiest tiara but I don't think the placement is helping with the overall look.
May they have a long and happy life together!
What a beautiful dress of the bride and a Tiara I never seen before. CP Masako looks stanning. Well Mister Abe gives a speech how nice. Sadly she needed to give up her Title which she was born with. Doe's not seem fair. I Wish them all the Happiness in the World.
Structurally and technically amazing dress with very pretty colour and elements but I don't like it - it's as if she's come dressed as the wedding cake. It's strange but it seems too old for her and as if it is wearing her rather than the other way round. I can't help feeling something simpler and in a bolder colour (like the traditional clothing she wore) would suit her better.
The pink silk is a gift from the bridegroom's mother before she has passed away to the bride (Princess Ayako)'s mother. The mothers have been acquaintances for years. Thus the dress is priceless.
Thank you for the detail and a lovely day to include the bridegroom's late mother. However, my comment still stands - however technically brilliant I find the dress I don't think it suits the bride.
It may not suit everyone's taste but the color & style are very typical Japanese style. Their modern version has a lot less variances of color & style. Simple colors & style are the norm. This may be because they also have their traditional dress where the fabric is so intricate & beautiful-they save the variety for that. I think she looks lovely with the color & style flattering on her. It is Eastern not Western fashion.
I don't find the style simple at all and it doesn't look particularly "Eastern" to me - maybe it is in appealing to taste but in style it looks like a Victorian dress with a bustle.
The important thing is that she enjoyed wearing it and she enjoyed all her wedding celebrations.
It's nice to see these folks gathering to celebrate a happy occasion in style, looking relaxed and enjoying each other's company. Crown Princess Masako always looks so youthful and glowing -- I would like to know her secret!
Not a fan of that gown. I wish Icould see more of Masako's dress, it looks awesome. Kind of bold for her but lovely. I hope now that her husband is going to be Emperor, she can begin to blossom and come out of her shell. I think she was stifled quite a bit.
I am a Japanese. The pink silk is the gift from the bridegroom's mother before she has passed away to the bride's mother. The mothers have been acquaintance for years. Thus, the dress is priceless.
They look so happy together, all the best for them!
I think, the tiara is originally a necklace changed to a tiara for the occasion? Could be a wedding gift from the Emperor and as future commoner, she doesn't need a tiara.
CP Masako looks beautiful and great in red …… it is not very often we see her dressed in colour.
Don´t like very much about this look, Ayako somehow disappears into that dress and looks much bigger she is. Model of tiara does not help. Cannot be without thinkinh how beautiful she could have been just in simple pink silk dress without the out flower part.
This couple is so cute and they look so happy. Best wishes to them! (Her dress isn't particularly flattering but I hope she loved wearing it and that's all that matters).

One brand of robotic vacuum that many people do not seem to consider is Neato. It would be a mistake to not consider this great brand in your quest for the ultimate robotic vacuum.
iRobot Roomba has been the dominant brand of robotic vacuum since 2002. Neato Robotics arrived on the scene in 2010 and has been a solid challenger to the Roomba with it's enhanced room mapping technology and great suction.
Currently, Neato Robotics has not released any newer robotic vacuum models but it does have the "Connected" model which boasts smartphone control. If you're looking for a nice mid-range bot, a Neato robotic vacuum may be a good choice.
If you're curious to see how Neato robotic vacuums compare to Roombas, see my Neato vs. Roomba guide.
What's the best Roomba Alternative?
Roomba Alternative – bObsweep, Neato, or…?
The iRobot Roomba has been around for a long time. Since it's introduction in 2002, it's swept the world by storm (See what I did there?). iRobot has such a strong foothold in the robotic vacuum business that it seems that no other Roomba alternative can even compete. As I'm writing this article, I can't help but think that yes, I am really biased toward the iRobot Roomba because it's an awesome piece of kit.
iRobot has been in the robotics business since 1990, longer than any other robotics company offering robotic vacuums. The history of the company is impressive, colored with military robots that remove landmines, policing robots and other tactical gear before finally producing the Roomba. That's a lot of history in tech years, and it's no wonder why they're the best (in my opinion of course). But there has to be a Roomba alternative, which is why you're here, and why I'm writing this.
Read moreWhat's the best Roomba Alternative?
Talk about robotic vacs and the first name brand that will pop into your mind is the iRobot Roomba. In fact, you're probably reading this website because you're interested in buying a Roomba or you're curious whether you should consider a Roomba alternative or not.
iRobot has more well known models of robotic vacuums than any other brand has. There are Roombasfor pet hair, different types of rooms, and budget models that are priced affordably but without a lot of extra features that make the more expensive models pricier. At the time of this writing iRobot has already released nearly 20 Roomba models. It's going to be hard to top that.

This past Christmas I made a couple of wreaths, decorated with some wine corks I had been collecting.
I kept one for myself and gave the other one to our oldest daughter and her husband.
To begin, I started with an 8" grapevine wreath I bought at Walmart for $4.99.
Then I wrapped it with half of a 6' grapevine cluster garland (one for each wreath) that I purchased at Hobby Lobby when it was on sale for half-price, and attached it to the wreath with hot glue in a couple of places to make sure it wouldn't come off.
Next I attached the bow to the wreath with some wire, and then began the process of attaching the wine corks with hot glue. I used my favorite wines and tried to cluster them by groups. I finished the project by accenting the wreath with a large cluster of grapes.
What about you? Do you enjoy making your own wreaths or wine cork crafts?

De Onze-Lieve-Vrouw van Fatimakerk was een rooms-katholieke parochiekerk aan de Sint-Servaasweg in het Eindhovense stadsdeel Stratum. Ze werd gebruikt door de parochianen van de buurt Tuindorp, welke vanaf 1930 werd gebouwd. De officiële naam van de kerk was: Onbevlekt Hart van Mariakerk, maar die naam werd vrijwel nooit gebruikt.

Geschiedenis
De kerk werd ingewijd in 1950, maar ten gevolge van de ontkerkelijking moest ook deze kerk uiteindelijk sluiten. Dit geschiedde in oktober 2004. In 2007 kocht de (evangelicale) Chinese Christian Church de rechterzijbeuk om daarin haar diensten te houden. Het overige gedeelte van de kerk werd verbouwd tot appartementen.
Het betreffende kerkgenootschap kwam voordien samen in een voormalige winkel aan Heezerweg 127.

Gebouw
Het betreft een grote driebeukige bakstenen basiliek. Het dak wordt bekroond met een dakruiter. De bouwstijl is traditionalistisch, maar divers. Het interieur roept herinneringen op aan de basilicastijl met ronde bogen op kolommen. Een roosvenster en sommige vensters bevatten gotische elementen.

Q: Reversing a list through iteration I am trying to get into Python. Here I am trying to reverse a list through recursion iteration.
I heard of the powerful slicing features but I don't see a chance to use them here:
def turn(l):
    skip = 0;
    while(skip < len(l)):
        if(l[skip] < l[skip+1]):
            break
        skip +=1
    t = l[len(l)-1]
    t2 = l[skip]
    l[skip] = t
    l[len(l)-1] = t2

    turn(l)
    return 0

l = range(0,5)
print turn(l)

The code you see above is the current state of experimenting.
But how could I finish the function?

A: If you really need to do it yourself and recursively, what about :
def reverse(lst):
    if len(lst) < 2:
        return lst
    else:
        return [lst[-1]] + reverse(lst[:-1])

A: Here is the slicing option
my_list[::-1]

Sorry for being too lazy to analyze your code, but if you really want to reverse list order - you have to stop when you reach the middle of the list.
Here is my solution
In [155]: def turn(trgt, offs=0):
    if offs>=len(trgt)/2:
        return
    trgt[offs], trgt[-1-offs] = trgt[-1-offs], trgt[offs]
    turn(trgt, offs+1)
   .....:

In [156]:

In [156]: my_list=range(10)

In [157]: turn(my_list)

In [158]: my_list
Out[158]: [9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0]

A: You can reduce the maximum depth of the stack by splitting the list in half each time instead of pulling one item at a time
def rev(L):
    if len(L) < 2:
        return L
    return rev(L[len(L) // 2:]) + rev(L[:len(L) // 2])

A: use
my_list.reverse()

Its easier. An in-built function in python

A: Here comes the solution:
def dreh(list):
    v = list[0]

    if len(list) > 1:
        del list[0]
        dreh(list)
    else:
        del list[0]

    list.append(v)
    return list

l = range(0,5)
l = dreh(l)
print l

But I have to admit though, using the included methods of python is far more convenient :)

A: I had written this code:
li = [0,1,3,5,9,12,14,25,'AAQ',32,54]
print 'li ==',li,'\nid(li) ==',id(li)

def rev(li):
    return [li.pop(-1)]  + rev(li) if li else li

lu =  rev(li)
print 'lu ==',lu,'\nid(lu) ==',id(lu)
print 'li==',li

result
li == [0, 1, 3, 5, 9, 12, 14, 25, 'AAQ', 32, 54]
id(li) == 18709560
lu == [54, 32, 'AAQ', 25, 14, 12, 9, 5, 3, 1, 0]
id(lu) == 18736432
li== []

The function id() gives the address in memory of an object.
The addresses 18709680 and 18736472 being different, that means that the two identifiers li and lu are references of two distinct list objects lying at distonct locations in the memory.
It also means that the list object li hasn't been reversed in place.
Moreover, after execution the list li is empty.
So I wondered if these consequences were acceptable for you.
.
Then I saw your solution in your answering post and I saw it has the same consequences, so you don't worry about them.
Staring at your code, that I wasn't understanding very well at first glance, I realized that it has a similar algorithm as mine, though inversed (!)
I will explain that is the following with the help of a demonstrating evolution of code.
Note that I replaced the identifier list with LIST because list is the name of a builtin class and it is recommended to avoid to overwrite the builtin identifiers.
First , your code is:
def dreh(LIST):
    v = LIST[0]

    if len(LIST) > 1:
        del LIST[0]
        dreh(LIST)
    else:
        del LIST[0]

    LIST.append(v)
    return LIST

Examining carefully the following code, you'll easily understand that it does the same as yours, though it does the contrary of yours (!)
def dreh(LIST):
    v = LIST[-1]

    if len(LIST) > 1:
        del LIST[-1]
        dreh(LIST)
    else:
        del LIST[-1]

    LIST.insert(0,v)
    return LIST

In your code, the first element of the list is removed and kept in object of name v, the remaining list is treated again with dreh() (the result being that identifier LIST then references a new list whose value is the reversed value of initial LIST object) and the kept value of v is appended to this new reversed LIST.
In my code , I do the contrary:
li.pop(-1) removes the last element of the list, put it alone in a list and extend this list of length 1 with the list returned by the recursive function called on the shortened list.
.

And now, I will prove that this inversed code is algorithmically the same as my own code.
But before that, a little precision.
In case one passes a void list to your function dreh(), that will produce an error because it will begin by trying to remove the first element (or the last in the inversed code) of the void list.
Then your code must be modified a little to hold this case, and it is then :
def dreh(LIST):
    if len(LIST)>=1:
        v = LIST[-1]

    if len(LIST) > 1:
        del LIST[-1]
        dreh(LIST)
    elif len(LIST)==1:
        del LIST[-1]

    LIST.insert(0,v)
    return LIST

.

And now the evolution of this code that leads to mine. I think the most of the steps are easily understandable. The most tricky step is the one from result la05 to result la06: one must consider it carefully and have a good understanding of the processes implied in the assignements in Python to understand this part. I'm sorry, I can't write all the stuff that would be necessary to explain this step, it would be too long. Anyway, the displaying of results show that the evolution of the code keep the same result all along.

I find this example interesting because it shows that Python offers a great ease to modify a code:
1/ its readability allows to understand what modification can be done
2/ the fact it is a compact langage, easy to rewrite, makes it possible to modify it rapidly.
I don't see how the same could be done as much easily as with C++ for example.

Commuters taking the free shuttle bus services between Joo Koon and Gul Circle stations, which will remain in place till at least June 2018 while train service between the two stations is suspended.PHOTO: ST FILE

SINGAPORE - A large fleet of additional buses will be required to ferry commuters left in the lurch due to shorter hours on the MRT's East-West Line, and the cost of this operation will be borne by the Government and rail operator SMRT.
"LTA and SMRT will share in the costs of operating these additional bus services," the Land Transport Authority (LTA), a statutory board under the Transport Ministry, said in response to queries from The Straits Times on Friday (Nov 24).
The same goes for shuttle bus service between Joo Koon and Gul Circle, which will remain in place until at least next June while train service between the two stations is suspended. Buses bridging Joo Koon and Gul Circle are free, but those plying along the 19 other stations hit by the shorter hours will charge equivalent train fares for the distance.
LTA said this week that 17 East-West and two North-South line stations will have shorter service hours from Dec 8 to Dec 31, and will close for the whole day on Dec 10 and Dec 17. Other sections of the line will also have these shortened service times to allow resignalling work to be completed by June instead of the original December 2018 timeline.
The rush to get the new signalling system up on the East-West Line comes after a train collision on Nov 15. Investigations point to compatibility issues between the old and new signalling systems. The authorities have decided to separate the two systems – and thus sections of the line – to prevent more incidents.
To serve displaced commuters, SBS Transit will be roped in to provide extra buses, and private bus operators are expected to be called on.
But experts and industry players said it will be a challenge to provide enough buses, and these could also contribute to road congestion.
A senior manager of a bus operator who declined to be named said: "We may have some excess capacity at night, but in the morning, it will be quite tough. Even on Sundays, the trains are quite full. And if the bus services are not done well, there will be complaints. There will also be increased congestion on the road."
National University of Singapore transport lecturer Lee Der Horng said: "During peak hours, one full-load train can have as many as 1,600 passengers, and it is two minutes per train. So, an hourly load can hit 48,000. You need more than 500 buses, and that is only for one direction." Professor Lee said the volume will be lower for an isolated section of the line, and at weekends, but it will still be significant.
Map created by duo to help commuters tackle December's shorter MRT operating hours
Singapore University of Social Sciences economist Walter Theseira expects "less travel demand than normal because commuters are likely to consider alternate routes or cancel their travel plans due to concerns about potential delays".
Both experts feel that signalling provider Thales should share the cost of the bus contingency plans, expected to cost $300,000 a month. "Thales, if it caused the disruption, should provide some goodwill contribution... to show it accepts responsibility," Dr Theseira said.
When asked if Thales should pay, LTA said "other investigations" were still ongoing.
A Thales spokesman said: "Thales has acknowledged and apologised for its part in the collision. We have also directly apologised to the injured commuters and their families. Our focus lies on delivering that system in a safe and timely manner, whatever it takes."
Thales clinched the resignalling contract with what is believed to be a lowest bid of $195 million. It is its first signalling project here. Most others were done by Alstom.


Yoga for Healthy Lower Backs is a specially designed, 12 week course which aims to give chronic back pain sufferers the tools to 'treat' themselves. It was developed by two expert yoga teachers in association with The University of York, Department of Health Sciences and Arthritis Research UK.
This course has been developed and scientifically tested by one of the largest trials of yoga. The outcomes can be read in more details on the Yoga for Healthy Lower Backs Website. One of the the most outstanding results was that people taking this course had, on average, 75% less absenteeism from work than those who received standard treatment.
The course is only taught by experienced and well qualified teachers who are trained to deliver this structured course in exactly the same way as the original trial. I have been also invited to join the YHLB Institute Strategy Committee.
This course is suitable for those who may have long term chronic back issues as well as those who want to strengthen their back. Though designed for the lower back, the course has proven to help those with shoulder, neck and even hip issues. Contact me for more information re suitability.
The course is taught over 12 weekly classes of 75 minutes duration. Also included is a student manual of postures, a relaxation CD with 4 relaxation tracks and weekly home practice sheets. You will learn a menu of pain relieving poses to choose in week 1 and then a series of gentle and mindful practices that progressively build on each week. This unique course gives you the confidence and the tools to take manage your back pain.
Next course starts on Monday 4th Jan 2016 from 6.30-7.45 pm- THIS COURSE IS NOW FULL- Taking booking for the next one or you can do it as a 1-2-1 or a small group.

Home/World/Tim Tebow set to signal Jaguars 3,000 days after his final NFL recreation
Tim Tebow set to signal Jaguars 3,000 days after his final NFL recreation
The Jacksonville Jaguars are anticipated to signal a one-year contract with Tim Tebow to play shut finish.
This is able to reunite Tebow along with his varsity coach, City Meyer, in his first season with the Jaguars.
Tebow hasn't performed an NFL snap since 2012.
Tim Tebow is as soon as once more chasing his dream within the NFL.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said on Monday that the Jacksonville Jaguars would signal Tebow to a one-year contract and that he would attempt to make it into the roster like a decent finish.
The transfer would reunite Tebow with first-year head coach City Meyer, who coached Tebow to a nationwide championship whereas main the Florida Gators in 2009.
Tebow's journey as knowledgeable athlete has been lengthy and winding. After the Denver Broncos drafted him within the first spherical in 2010, Tebow briefly received the beginning place however flared up with the workforce. He was traded to the New York Jets in 2012 after the Broncos acquired Peyton Manning to be their starter.
Tebow rebounded within the NFL as a reserve and coaching participant for 4 extra seasons earlier than specializing in baseball, the place he labored his manner via the minor leagues with the New York Mets. Tebow additionally labored as a broadcaster for ESPN throughout his absence from soccer.
Tebow performed in minor league baseball for a number of seasons.

This time round, Tebow will look to earn a spot on the Jaguars roster as a decent finish, a change in place that many consider might have prolonged his preliminary stint within the NFL.
The Jaguars want place a bit of. Whereas Jacksonville has five tight ends on her list, 4 of them mixed for simply 13 profession NFL receptions. Fifth, James O'Shaughnessy, set profession highs with the Jaguars final season with 28 receptions and 262 receiving yards.
Even with Jacksonville slim on the tight finish, Tebow nonetheless has a variety of work to do if he hopes to be a part of the workforce's energetic roster this fall. As ESPN's Field Yates Highlighted On Twitter, it has been 3,053 days since Tebow performed in an NFL recreation.
Nonetheless, given his relationship with Meyer, there is no doubt that Tebow would at the very least have a shot at competing for a spot on the roster.
Greater than a decade after their first championship collectively, Tebow and Meyer could also be able to construct one thing new.

Postdoctoral fellow Bopeng Zhang, left, Professor Yongshen Chen and graduate research assistant Thomas Igou will pilot a project to use wastewater nutrients to grow lettuce, tomatoes and other fruits and vegetables. They've received $5 million from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to use biological treatment processes, nanomaterials and machine learning to extract contaminants from the wastewater while leaving valuable nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrients. Their pilot system will use Georgia Tech's wastewater.
Even if you do your best to eat local, chances are most of the fruits and vegetables you consume come from far away — especially if you live in a big city. Water and land for growing crops are hard to come by in urban areas. Finding more sustainable methods for growing produce in urban areas would have enormous benefits. A pilot project by Georgia Tech's Yongsheng Chen, a professor in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, aims to use wastewater from the campus to do just that.
"We want to change the current wastewater treatment practice — step back a little bit and think outside the box. This could have a big impact."
The proposed anaerobic membrane biological treatment process will transfer organic contaminants into biogas and remove pathogens such as E. coli to ensure food safety, but the nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, for example) will remain. By using a smart membrane or nanomaterials to extract trace contaminants like endocrine disruptors, heavy metals and pharmaceuticals, the nutrients that are left can be pumped through a vertical hydroponic system to grow produce without adding fertilizer. The project will monitor water and produce quality and measure contamination from chemicals and microbes continuously.
The overall goal, Chen said, is to show that using the nutrients and water resources from domestic wastewater (DWW) in an urban controlled environment agriculture system (CEAs) is socially, environmentally and financially sustainable and can be easily replicated in other cities. The project will closely track nutrient requirements, energy needed to produce, handle and transport the fruits and vegetables, and water needs to determine what resources are needed to support this kind of CEA system (DWW-CEAs).
Ecological network analysis for DWW-CEA coupling will track material and energy flows across components that produce, consume and recycle food. Using a geodesign approach, Chen's team will then compare data from traditional agriculture and DWW-CEAs to see how the system performs and how it could be designed to perform better in terms of water, energy and nutrient needs.
A pilot project funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture will use wastewater nutrients to grow produce on Georgia Tech's campus to test a model for decentralizing production of vegetables such as these.
Chen will use machine learning in the controlled growing environment to seek a "recipe" for each plant type: the ideal amount of nutrients, growing temperature and humidity needed for lettuce, for example, so that each head of greens will taste the same. The project also provides an opportunity to test a number of other technologies, such as using solar power for cooling or biogas extracted from the wastewater and discarded food to power a micro chiller.
Of course, showing that such a system is feasible and profitable is one hurdle; another is getting consumers on board with the way the produce is grown.
"If we are going to decentralize this system, what are the implications for policy-related issues?" Chen asked. "Will people buy products produced by wastewater?" The project will involve working with a number of collaborators at Georgia Tech and in Atlanta, including Kaye Husbands Fealing, professor and chair of the School of Public Policy at Georgia Tech, and the Atlanta Mayor's Office of Resilience.
This research is supported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) Water for Food Production Systems (Grant 2018-68011-28371).

The WhoScored EFL Team of the Week!
With another round of EFL games in the bag, WhoScored.com take a look at the top performing players from the weekend's action. Accrington fans are sure to enjoy the rundown this week after their 4-1 win over Crewe...
5. Sean Raggett (Portsmouth) - 8.89 rating
On the back of a six-game winless run, Portsmouth have now earned back-to-back victories, following up their 2-1 win over Burton with a 4-0 thrashing of League One basement boys Doncaster. Centre-back Sean Raggett played a starring role in the win, earning a WhoScored.com rating of 8.89. Raggett bagged his third league goal of the season late on, netting with his only effort on goal, and worked hard defensively to ensure a clean sheet as he made two tackles and one first half clearance off the line to secure a spot in the side.
4. Alex Pattison (Harrogate) - 9.32 rating
Harrogate and Rochdale played out one of the games of the weekend in the EFL, sharing the spoils in an entertaining 3-3 draw at the Crown Oil Arena. Alex Pattison had a direct hand in all three Harrogate goals on Saturday, scoring a first half brace and then turning provider for Jack Diamond shortly after the restart. Those came from respective returns of three shots and three key passes with Pattison good value for his inclusion having earned a WhoScored.com rating of 9.32.
3. Marlon Fossey (Bolton) - 9.34 rating
Were it not for Marlon Fossey's impact in the final third, Bolton would have fallen to defeat at Oxford over the weekend. The 23-year-old had a direct hand in two of Bolton's three goals on Saturday, firing the Trotters level late in the first half and then providing the assist for Amadou Bakayoko late on to wrap up the three points. Nine aerial duels won, four interceptions, three clearances and two tackles saw the youngster return a WhoScored.com rating of 9.34.
2. Ross Sykes (Accrington) - 9.41 rating
Ross Sykes was excellent in Accrington's 4-1 win over Crewe and he would have had a clean sheet to go with his brace were it not for Daniel Agyei's late consolation for the Alex. Sykes hit the back of the net with two of three efforts on goal in the comfortable victory, and was dominant in the air, winning 10 aerial duels. Seven interceptions, two clearances and one tackle means the centre-back is a worthy inclusion in the EFL team of the week with a WhoScored.com rating of 9.41.
1. Sean McConville (Accrington) - 10.0 rating
With a perfect 10 rating, Sean McConville is the WhoScored.com EFL player of the week. McConville had a direct hand in all four goals in Accrington's 4-1 win over Crewe. The 32-year-old registered a hat-trick of assists to take his total for the season to 12 from four key passes at the Wham Stadium and then got on the scoresheet midway through the second half, finding a way past Dave Richards with one of three shots to help secure the accolade.

Agencies boost efforts to stop wildland firefighter suicides

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Shane Del Grosso spent some 30 summers crossing smoke-shrouded mountains and forests to fight increasingly devastating wildfires in the U.S. West.
Toward the end, his skills and experience propelled him to lead a federal multi-agency team that responded to large-scale national disasters. On some days he directed a thousand firefighters and helped coordinate aircraft attacks on massive blazes.
But then came the long offseason lacking the shared-risk camaraderie. Isolation closed in, his family said, along with marital problems that can be exacerbated by first-responder jobs that require missed family events and birthdays.
Del Grosso, 50, killed himself May 9, 2016, not long before the start of another wildfire season.
"I always thought that you'd see it coming, but I guess you don't," said his best friend, Noel Matson, who worked and fought wildfires out of the same U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service office in Huron, South Dakota, as Del Grosso. "It was maybe that male bravado firefighter thing where you don't talk about what's bothering you."
Federal officials at the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise have started making efforts to change that mindset after noticing an increase in wildland firefighter suicides in recent years.
"It's not a profession where people want to reach out for help because they are the help," said Jessica Gardetto, a fire center spokeswoman and former wildland firefighter. "The federal agencies have realized, whether it's suicidal tendencies or just overall mental health, it's a resource that needs to be available — even out on the fire lines."
No figures on wildland firefighter suicides are available because federal agencies often track only fatalities that occur during work hours, and families don't always release a cause of death.
But Gardetto said the wildland firefighting community is small, "and word spreads quickly." Anecdotal reports suggest many of the suicides are happening outside the wildfire season. A month ago, she said, a U.S. Forest Service firefighter based in the U.S. Southwest killed himself. And she said several suicides occurred in Idaho in 2017. One of those was a Boise-based U.S. Bureau of Land Management smokejumper, a firefighter who jumps from airplanes.
Reasons for the rise are unclear, though some cite longer and tougher wildfire seasons and an increase in the number of wildland firefighters who previously served in the military and were already dealing with post-traumatic stress.
In the past several years, the National Interagency Fire Center has bolstered a program that teaches coping skills and offers one-on-one crisis intervention to firefighters dealing with trauma and other issues. Federal agencies also have increased efforts to make firefighters aware that help is available.
It's unclear what kind of help Del Grosso was receiving. His family learned after his death that he'd been diagnosed with PTSD.
"Obviously he couldn't escape whatever demons were haunting him. And that breaks your heart," said his older sister, Stacey Chaney.
Throughout Del Grosso's career with different agencies, his family tracked news reports hoping to get a glimpse of him at work. It was easier after he rose through the ranks to become an incident commander, a job in which he often spoke at news conferences.
He also sent thousands of wildland firefighters into burning forests, and they trusted him to get them out again.
"He relished his role as incident commander," said Matson, Del Grosso's friend and colleague. "He worked well with people and knew just about every position, and everybody respected that."
Friends and family say Hurricane Katrina might have taken the most out of Del Grosso.
He told them it was the worst disaster he'd ever been assigned, but left out the details. Nearly 2,000 people died in the 2005 hurricane and its aftermath, and parts of New Orleans were destroyed.
"I think that's where a lot of his problems started," said his mother, Sharalyn Del Grosso. "Seeing all that death, all that loss, all that death and dying. There were so many people that needed so much, and he couldn't do it. That need of wanting to fix it, to do more, to make it better."
Del Grosso is one of the highest-ranking firefighters to have his name placed on a memorial stone at the Wildland Firefighters Monument at the federally managed fire center in Idaho. The monument honors some 400 firefighters killed by flames, falling trees, vehicle mishaps, airplane crashes and heart attacks.
That Del Grosso's name was included is recognition of some of the challenges wildland firefighters face away from fire lines, said Bill Arsenault, a wildland firefighter and paramedic with the Idaho Falls Fire Department in southeastern Idaho.
"It's huge," he said while walking past the monument's stones, noting the names of some of the firefighters he knew. "Sometimes we only memorialize quote-unquote 'true heroes.' But they were doing the job no different from anyone else. I think it's good that we're recognizing the contribution that Shane made."
