SA records 16 726 new COVID-19 cases, 418 deaths
January 1, 2021, 10:24 pm	 Local News
South Africa has recorded 16 726 New coronavirus (COVID-19) cases in the past 24-hours, bringing the total number of cases to 1 073 887.
The country has also recorded 418 new COVID-19 related fatalities, pushing the death toll to 28 887
In a statement, Health Minister Dr Zweli Mkhize says most of the new deaths were recorded in the Western Cape.
"Regrettably, 418 more COVID-19 related deaths have been reported: Eastern Cape 66, Gauteng 66, KwaZulu-Natal 134, Mpumalanga 6, Free State 8 and Western Cape 138. This brings the total to 28 887."
Recoveries now stand at 887 701, representing a recovery rate of 82,6%.
Meanwhile, Mkhize has appealed to all South Africans to help protect healthcare workers against COVID-19, by adhering to the basic safety protocols.
Mkhize lit a candle at Durban's King Edward VIII Hospital on New Year's Eve to remember the more than 28 000 people who have died from the virus in the country.
He paid tribute to health care workers who are going beyond the call of duty as the pandemic is ravaging the country.
More than 43 000 healthcare workers have been infected and 438 have died from the virus.
"Every time a healthcare worker is infected with COVID-19, we lose at least 10 days of labour so desperately needed at this time. We may lose these precious resources for much longer if they all become ill and need to be treated and isolated longer," says the Health Minister.
In the video below, 30 people test positive for COVID-19 after attending a party in the North West:
The President meanwhile led a candlelight ceremony in honour of frontline healthcare workers at the Khayelitsha District Hospital on the Cape Flats.
He was accompanied by Western Cape Premier Allan Winde, Health MEC Nomafrench Mbombo, the State and Security Deputy Minister and various religious leaders.

Harrison Barnes triple at buzzer propels Kings over Suns
by david brandt, ap
Harrison Barnes shoots 10 for 18 in 39 minutes of play for Sacramento.
PHOENIX — Their 10-point lead had evaporated in less than three minutes and it looked like the same ol' dreadful Sacramento Kings were about to blow another winnable game.
Then Harrison Barnes calmly rose up over Devin Booker, the 3-pointer looked good all the way, and it splashed through the net at the buzzer to give the Kings a thrilling 110-107 victory over the stunned Phoenix Suns on Wednesday night (Thursday, Manila time).
Instead of finding a way to lose, the Kings had clawed out a win. That's progress.
"We're a different group," Kings coach Luke Walton said. "I know we've got a long way to go still, but we've put in the time, put in the work and it's a group that believes in each other."
The Kings led by as many as 13 points in the fourth quarter but the Suns rallied late. Booker found Mikal Bridges for an alley-oop dunk with 34 seconds remaining to tie the game at 107.
Phoenix got a defensive stop on the next possession but Booker's difficult 18-foot jumper with 4.1 seconds left was off the mark. Sacramento grabbed the rebound and called a timeout to set up a final possession.
With 1.4 seconds left, De'Aaron Fox threw a short inbounds pass to Barnes, who was guarded tightly by Booker. The 6-foot-8 Barnes jumped, turning and rising over Booker's outstretched arm for the game-winning shot, shouting as it went through the hoop.
Barnes said there were no nerves in the final moments: "Honestly, we're just trying to get a good look. We know worst-case scenario, we go to overtime."
Walton said the Kings have to grow from the jittery final minutes, but it's a lot easier to teach those lessons with a win.
"It's an emotional roller coaster sometimes," Walton said. "I'm happy for our guys because they did play really hard tonight. They fought back from a poor first half, built up a nice lead, made some big plays. But we have to learn from that."
Barnes had 22 points. Buddy Hield thrived in his role off the bench, pouring in 26 points in just 27 minutes. The 6-foot-4 guard made a season-high seven 3-pointers on just 11 attempts and added five rebounds.

Tyrese Haliburton scored 15 points and hit an off-balance 3-pointer from the corner late in the fourth to help the Kings stay ahead. The Kings improved to 2-2 and are trying to break a string of 15 straight losing seasons.
The loss continued a slow start for the Suns, who are 1-3 after making the NBA Finals last season. They have similar expectations this season with essentially the same team, but had a cold night shooting from long range, finishing 6 of 22 (27.3%) from behind the arc.
Deandre Ayton had 21 points and a season-high 21 rebounds. Booker scored a season-high 31 points.
The Kings trailed for much of the night before a 17-6 run pushed them to an 82-76 advantage by the end of the third quarter. The Suns scored just 15 points in the third on 7-of-22 (32%) shooting.
The Suns never trailed in the first half, jumping out to 61-53 lead by halftime. Ayton had 16 points and 11 rebounds before the break, making 8 of 11 shots from the field. Fox and Barnes both scored 10 for the Kings.
Kings: Alex Len finished with 10 points and three rebounds. He made a 3-pointer midway through the fourth quarter to put the Kings up 12. The 7-footer spent his first five seasons in the NBA with the Suns. ... Terence Davis missed all seven of his shots.
Suns: Backup point guard Cam Payne didn't play because of a right hamstring strain. Elfrid Payton filled in for Payne and finished with 10 points and two assists.
Kings: Visit New Orleans on Friday.
Suns: Host Cleveland on Saturday.

Girl on Girl Feminisms
Girl fight! Image: Jenn
We all remember the cool girls at school. Unless you went to a boys school. In which case you had a group of cool boys. There was nothing particularly remarkable about these people. In fact it seemed it was their unremarkableness was their strength. The only time they spoke up was to put others down it seemed, making them hard to analyse and infiltrate. Cool is a weird thing. As is bitchiness. Do you remember when a trend overtook Jezebel commenters and it became funny to remark that something made you want to "cut a bitch". Truth be told I can see why this is an awful thing to say but - this truth being told - I have to say the first time I read the phrase "Makes me want to cut a bitch" as a bored intern looking for feminist writing online I had to stifle my laughter. I laughed at a joke in which someone feels an urge to draw blood from a woman. I think if I saw someone witty crack it out again I might smirk a little. Does that make me cool?
I don't want to analyse this flip remark that is an appropriation of frightening behaviour in a safe(ish) space highlighting a certain ridiculousness about it. I do want to talk about how different women deal with their feminist belief in public. Sarah Ditum discussed it in the New Statesman, using Gone Girl author Gillian Flynn's Cool Girl idea to portray a woman who separates herself from other women: "Men always say that as the defining compliment, don't they? She's a cool girl. Being the Cool Girl means I am a hot, brilliant, funny woman who adores football, poker, dirty jokes, and burping, who plays video games, drinks cheap beer, loves threesomes and anal sex, and jams hot dogs and hamburgers into her mouth like she's hosting the world's biggest culinary gang bang while somehow maintaining a size 2, because Cool Girls are above all hot. Hot and understanding. Cool Girls never get angry; they only smile in a chagrined, loving manner and let their men do whatever they want. Go ahead, shit on me, I don't mind, I'm the Cool Girl."
The Cool Girl, also known in the '90s as the ladette, is also evidently Lone Girl. Ditum seems to intensely dislike her and Flynn is apparently hostile. Ditum continues: "The problem is that the Cool Girl doesn't do these things because she likes them: they're just the tokens she deploys to show men that she can move in their world without disrupting the gender order, because she respects the man code."
some people just don't fit in anywhere and boys often provide a retreat, whatever your size, diet or penchant for anal sex.
I don't know how Ditum can possibly know a person's motivations for liking something - but I'm not unfamiliar with a creeping feeling of suspicion when some people make announcements about who they are, particularly when it just happens to be a list of very attractive or accommodating traits. Still, it's preferable to someone who constantly spouts "I don't mind..." Moreover considering those who remain indecisive in order to please, you wonder who exactly is getting shat on here.
Ditum describes her frustration with feminists who identify as sex positive, who discuss porn without an agenda to end it. Her annoyance at women who don't mind catcalling, who explain "That's got nothing to do with men using street harassment to put women down in public, it's just because feminists have taught you to be afraid". The Cool Girl pisses Ditum off for bringing up whore stigma - only male abusers endanger sex workers. Personally I think we've stepped beyond Cool Girl philosophy, which as I understand it is mostly about being hot, burping and drinking beer with the boys, and creep into what the women with these beliefs call intersectional feminism.
The sad truth is that some people just don't fit in anywhere and boys often provide a retreat, whatever your size, diet or penchant for anal sex. The so called Cool Girl will often tell you she prefers the company of men because, rather than struggling with an apparent man code she escapes women's judgement. Rather than compete she refuses to participate. And that's a problem because we need her voice. So instead of criticising the Cool Girls, or the Women of Colour who say we aren't listening, or silencing trans* women or dismissing sex workers, which we unthinkingly do because we don't relate, we should search our feminist hearts to find what we are doing wrong.
The unfortunate result is that with this Cool Girl slur piece Sarah Ditum unintentionally comes across as not practising the "kindness of feminists" she yearns for.

Crab fresh from the drink is all it's cracked up to be.
I MARRIED the bait boy.
My husband, Mac, doesn't like to fish, but he's happy to untangle a line, pinch a barb, bait a hook and eat whatever his son — or his wife — reels in.
Sadly, our haul is often small. That's why they call it fishing, not catching.
A licensed, professional mariner, Mac swears like a sailor. And for most of the nearly 20 years I've known him he's sworn he'd "never, ever!" own a boat. Until the day he pulled his truck into our driveway, trailer in tow. On it was a 14-foot Smokercraft outfitted with a 15-horsepower Honda outboard.
"We got a great deal!" Mac crowed, while our son — who, like our sturdy fishing vessel, is 14-going-on-15 — was grinning like a shark within inches of its prey.
When it's not taking up prime real estate in our garage, Small Fry is our trusty companion on the Skagit, the Snohomish and the Sound, where she comfortably houses three, an ice chest, a picnic lunch and our fishing gear.
But we all agree the boat is at its best offshore at our favorite vacation spot, Orcas Island, where we're now known as the Family von Trap.
Nate and I used to get our thrills tossing crab rings off the Edmonds public fishing pier, where long summer nights meant pulling up the rare Dungie keeper (males, with a hard-shell span of at least 6.25 inches), the occasional Red Rock and a host of pesky starfish attracted by a zip-tied chicken leg.
Since Small Fry came into our lives, though, nothing thrills us more than spending Thanksgiving crabbing on Orcas. Last year, the winter crabbing season magically opened for us and we shared the holiday — and the boat — with friends.
Then they'd come home to Mama, traps brimming with their legal limit.
My canning pot filled with saltwater, I awaited the arrival of the deadliest catch, then I boiled the bounty, cleaned the crab and melted plenty of butter. Three days of this and we'd had our fill: crab served hot, and cold, as cocktails and with cocktails. That's when I went into high gear, cracking (then freezing) the leftovers.
Which tasted great in our Christmas gumbo.
Got extra crab? Try this quick trick, courtesy of chef Hajime Sato, owner of Mashiko, West Seattle's sustainable sushi restaurant.
1. Heat the butter in a medium saute pan, over medium-high heat. When the butter is bubbling, add the scallops and cook without moving them for 1 minute. Turn the scallops and sear the other side. Remove from the pan and place on two warmed plates.
2. Add the ginger, garlic, soy sauce and a squeeze of lemon to the same pan. Swirl the liquid over medium heat and lightly scrape up any bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Add the crab and mix gently to combine.
3. Turn the crab mixture onto the scallops, dividing evenly. Garnish with daikon radish sprouts and serve immediately.

Throughout the 1980s Klippel worked on a series of large wooden assemblages composed of discarded wooden patterns for machine parts. Colin Lanceley had discovered them in an industrial foundry in Ultimo during 1964. Decades later they proved ideal material for Klippel's explorations into the subtle relationships of mass, volume and planes. 'Opus 714' is a masterwork from this series. It grew out of Klippel's earlier experiments with photographic collages, as in 'Philadelphia', 1979, also in the Gallery's collection.
Often considered a miniaturist, Klippel reveals in 'Opus 714' a shift towards large, monumental forms. He has achieved an apparently random yet perfectly balanced composition of dramatic colour, space and solid frontality. The disparate elements in 'Opus 714' have been brought into an asymmetrical yet balanced whole, in which the relationships of the static parts create an 'organic' energy.

2 men hospitalized on 'The Bachelorette,' 1 leaves show
By Jennifer Matarese
NEW YORK -- This week the feud between David the chicken and Jordan the model continued on "The Bachelorette." Jordan thinks David is "dry" and eats too many scrambled eggs. David thinks that Jordan isn't there for the right reasons and that he's inappropriate (because he walked around in his undies last week). Colton, meantime, is freaking out about what Becca thinks about his dating past with Tia from last season's "Bachelor." Chris Harrison dropped off a date card and explained there would be two group dates and one one-on-one date this week. The first date card read, "Wills, Jason, Jordan, David, Jean Blanc, and Colton it's time to relax."
Here's to a day at the spa and a little awkwardness! 🥂#TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/gWVcbcyRcl
— The Bachelorette (@BacheloretteABC) June 12, 2018
Some ladies from last season's "Bachelor" showed up. Becca said they were her support system when Arie broke up with her. Caroline, Becca, Tia, Seinne, and Kendall were excited for a day at the spa. Tia explained that she dated Colton before their season of "The Bachelor" even aired. It's definitely going to be awkward. Colton was shocked to see Tia. The look on his face was priceless. While introducing the men to her friends, Becca forgot Jason's name! It was really funny! They all got changed and Jason pulled Colton aside and told him he needs to find time to address things with Tia. The guys pampered the girls and painted their nails and gave them massages. They seem like they'll make excellent husbands! Colton and Tia continued to avoid each other's gazes.
Becca pulled Tia aside to talk about her past relationship with Colton. They were talking for a while, but he was pretty upfront to Tia about applying for the show. Apparently, he thought that there was a chance Tia could be "The Bachelorette." But, it was Becca so...is he there for Tia or Becca? That's Becca's big question.
Later that evening, Becca's goal was to talk to Colton again. Talk about beating a dead horse. This storyline is kind of dragging, and does anyone even care? Ha, the guys were sitting around in the lounge with their painted nails. They all hoped to get some alone time to chat with Becca. Jean Blanc was very smooth and pulled Becca away mid-conversation with the group. He revealed that he brought a head massager with him - just in case. In case of what exactly?
Becca told Jason that she has a little crush on him and that she was so sorry she flubbed his name. He told her not to worry about it and he's so happy to spend time with her. He started making out with her so that she wouldn't forget him again.
Jordan said that he's got a record of matching 100% on Tinder with anyone he wants and says he has 4,000 matches for the year. He's just trying to mess with David as much as possible. He refuses to answer his questions for fear that David thinks he's being taken seriously. David decided to use his time with Becca to talk garbage about Jordan. He says, "I'm not one to throw people under the bus..." but really? How is Becca supposed to know that? She's spoken to the guy for a matter of minutes and all he does with his time is talk about Jordan. Becca goes into the room and says, "4,000 matches Jordan, high-five!" She did not seem amused. The other guys thought it was a jerk move for David to tell Becca what Jordan had said. Jordan apologized to Becca and said that he's a "golden retriever" in a relationship. He said, "You are something that I would like to see myself next to, you are the goal." David and Jordan started fighting again after this and Jordan said, "I'm a Wilhelmina model, and I don't even think you know what that means."
Becca then took time to talk to Colton and she told him that she wants her next relationship to last. She said, "Have you moved on from that?" in reference to Tia. Colton didn't hesitate at all and said, "Yes." Colton said he just wanted to make sure that they started their relationship open and honest. They ended their conversation by making out. Seems like things may be back on track. If that wasn't enough, she got up and got the date rose and offered it to Colton! Wow, he's out of the dog house and then some!
Another date card arrived and it read, "Chris, let's make your heart sing." She picked him up in a limo and they went to a recording studio! It's Capitol records! Richard Marx was there playing the piano. Becca acted like they were lifelong friends and called him "Richard." He's the one who sang, "Right Here Waiting." He even performed it for them! He told Chris and Becca to write love songs for each other and Chris was super nervous about it. Somehow it turned into him crying about how his dad didn't want to be his friend and shut him down. Chris revealed to Becca that getting vulnerable this early in the relationship was a lot of pressure. He asked for a kiss...was this all a ploy to get a kiss? Becca impressed Richard Marx and Chris with her lyrics. Chris also did an amazing job and it was very heartfelt! Richard Marx gave him the slow clap and told him he could drop the mic. Richard Marx then performed music with their lyrics! It was amazing, he just started strumming his guitar and made up a beautiful song.
"Oh can't you see it, baby. You've got me going crazy." 🎶❤@richardmarx #TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/9V50YjRU2w
During dinner, Becca did her best to make Chris more comfortable talking about his history. Chris said he wasn't nervous about the one-on-one, he was just very nervous about opening up. He was worried he would talk about his past and Becca would just dump him. Chris revealed his dad left his family on New Year's Day when he was 7. He said as an adult, he reached out to his dad and he never responded. Becca said she was glad that he told her about that. Becca talked about getting dumped by Arie and her father's death. She said she understands it's hard to have a parent missing in his life. She decided to offer him the date rose. She was pleased that he could get out of his comfort zone and show her who he is. He accepted the rose and she grabbed him by his lapels and kissed him! Richard Marx was back to peform as the lovebirds danced and kissed.
Back at the house, David had a medical emergency. There was blood everywhere! The guys were actually worried that he could die. The guys woke up to David lying on the ground straight as a board. Jordan screamed his name...so what happened exactly? Don't worry Chris Harrison is around to fill Becca in. Chris told her that David is in intensive care with a busted nose and face. He apparently fell out of his bunk bed and landed on his face, but he's expected to be fine. Chris called David on the phone and he spoke to Becca and sounded great. He told her that he would be back and he isn't leaving the show. Jordan then put bedrails on the bunks so he wouldn't fall off the bed too.
The final date card arrived and it was for Clay, Leo, Christon, Ryan, John, Garrett, Mike, Lincoln, Connor, and Blake, and said "We can tackle anything together." Some women football players helped train the guys and get them ready to play a game against each other. Clay was super excited to show off to Becca because he's a pro football player. Garrett had some fun helping Becca through the drills. Keyshawn Johnson (former NY Jet) was on hand to help Chris Harrison with the play-by-play for the game. Becca found it really hot watching the guys play in the game, she was having a great time. Garrett proved to be a great quarterback, while Clay did the best he could with some of the misfits on his team. Lincoln for one, being from England, was not very good at playing football. As Clay ran a touchdown into the end zone, he hurt his wrist. He got taken away in an ambulance to the hospital.
Later that evening, Becca said she hoped Clay would be OK, but she was also excited to get to know the rest of the guys. Becca told Garrett that he always has fun even though he's only been on group dates. They practiced some tackling moves and Becca went in for the kiss! Garrett said, "That's the way a date should go!" Blake started to freak out a bit seeing Becca with the other guys. He's losing his confidence and feeling jealous. Becca gave him some kisses and he was back to normal. She also felt giddy when he told her that she feels like his girlfriend. Clay returned with his arm in a sling and Becca pulled him aside to chat. She kissed him and told him that she's so happy he was back. She even gave him the date rose! He called it his best date ever, despite breaking his wrist.
Then it was time for the cocktail party before the rose ceremony. David was still not there. Colton set up some t-ball for Becca and him to play because he says he was more into baseball than football. Clay revealed to the other guys that he has to leave the show early because he needs surgery for his wrist, but he's struggling because he wants to stay and compete for Becca. He wants to talk to her about it. He tells her that it's more serious than he hoped and he needs his job. He said goodbye to her and she didn't beg him to stay or say she'd wait for him, so I think it's pretty clear that she wasn't completely sold on him. The show ended before the rose ceremony, so we'll have to see how that goes next week. David will return, but the show blurred his face! So we'll have to wait to see that too!

Canada's cities are re-defining themselves. From innovative and eco-friendly building strategies to the development of "smart" infrastructure that can be monitored and controlled remotely, Canada has sought to place itself at the forefront of urban futures. These trends have given rise to a great deal of concern over what the future will hold: Will future technological changes improve the quality of life in Canada, or usher in a new age of surveillance, a lack of privacy and inequality?
Panelists will comment on the trajectory of Canadian urban development, offering their perspectives on maximizing the benefits of urban technology and on planning for a diverse, growing urban population.

Elon Musk has some big ideas for how electric cars could sound. Not content with the prospect of one setting for all of them, the Tesla CEO proposed a number of tongue-in-cheek noises for his company's vehicles in a Twitter post on Thursday.
"Hey, you need a firmware on the Tesla that simulates sounds of petrol cars. And simulates the shifting and aspiration. #DoItPlease," YouTuber Barnacules said to Musk on Twitter.
The rise of near-silent electric vehicles offers a fun opportunity to come up with some unique sounds for the roads of the future. It doesn't even have to be a regular vehicle sound; you could use crackling fire, running water, or your favorite song.
It's little surprise that Musk is interested in a gasoline car sound, though. The car enthusiast still owns two traditional cars in his garage: a Ford Model T, given to him by a friend, and a '67 E-Type Series 1 Roadster, which he describes as his "first love." In a 1999 documentary, the young entrepreneur can be seen taking a delivery for a McLaren F1, which at the time was the fastest production car in the world.
Unfortunately, he crashed it while demonstrating its abilities to fellow PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel.
The Tesla also provides an ideal opportunity to change the sounds during regular operation. Each vehicle comes with a computer equipped for over-the-air software updates, making changes like these a breeze. Cars shipping since October of last year include the Nvidia Drive PX 2 computer, which enables semi-autonomous driving through an array of sensors. Future updates will improve the autonomy, but Musk could also include a hidden "car noise" feature for those who want it.
Other manufacturers have gone in the opposite direction. Lucid Motors is developing an electric vehicle designed for near-silence in the car's interior, using Noise and Vibration Harmony to cancel out even the sounds of wheels in motion and wind rushing past. It won't mask the sound for passersby, but at that stage, the ability to control the simulated sound of a car may seem rather pointless.


Just tried Firmware 1.0.3Dev and it does not compile. Is it possible to specify a particular version other than 0.9.2.x or "whatever the latest version today is"? I'd like to use 1.0.1 or 1.0.2. I'm trying to add features on the printer and it would be nice if I could stick to one firmware version during my integration and testing process.
That is because you used HEATER_7_PIN in configuration, but your board has not defined this. Select only defined names or select the real digital pin number directly and it will compile.
We always have only the latest a.b.x version online as this is the one with most fixes. Use github to get in between versions instead.


The European chemical framework REACH requires that hazards and risks posed by chemicals, including alloys and metals, are identified and proven safe for humans and the environment. Therefore, differences in bioaccessibility in terms of released metals in synthetic biological fluids (different pH (1.5–7.4) and composition) that are relevant for different human exposure routes (inhalation, ingestion, and dermal contact) have been assessed for powder particles of an alloy containing high levels of nickel (Inconel 718, 57 wt% nickel). This powder is compared with the bioaccessibility of two nickel-containing stainless steel powders (AISI 316L, 10–12% nickel) and with powders representing their main pure alloy constituents: two nickel metal powders (100% nickel), two iron metal powders and two chromium metal powders. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, microscopy, light scattering, and nitrogen absorption were employed for the particle and surface oxide characterization. Atomic absorption spectroscopy was used to quantify released amounts of metals in solution. Cytotoxicity (Alamar blue assay) and DNA damage (comet assay) of the Inconel powder were assessed following exposure of the human lung cell line A549, as well as its ability to generate reactive oxygen species (DCFH-DA assay). Despite its high nickel content, the Inconel alloy powder did not release any significant amounts of metals and did not induce any toxic response. It is concluded, that this is related to the high surface passivity of the Inconel powder governed by its chromium-rich surface oxide. Read-across from the pure metal constituents is hence not recommended either for this or any other passive alloy.

Applications for support grants for Estonian cultural events abroad open

The Integration Foundation (Integratsiooni Sihtasutus) has announced a call for proposals aimed at supporting Estonian cultural society projects and events which help to preserve the Estonian language and culture round the world, and maintain connections with Estonians living abroad.
Applications are open now, until February 6, 2023, inclusive.
Kaire Cocker, Head of the Compatriots Service at the Integration Foundation said: "The aim of the grant is to support the activities of the Estonian cultural societies abroad, mediation of Estonian cultural events, and the cohesion of the Estonian communities worldwide with Estonia."
"Grants may, for example, be applied for, for organizing cultural events in Estonian communities abroad, for the cultural exchange of Estonian cultural collectives and creative individuals with the Estonian communities abroad, or for organizing Estonian cultural heritage and heritage culture-related days," Cocker went on.
"Any project applications which are focused on involving young people would also be very welcome," she added.
The total budget for proposals to the foundation comes to €44,000, with a maximum of €4,000 to be granted per application; only one proposal is permissible per applicant.
Legal persons under the law who are registered in the Republic of Estonia and self-employed persons entered in the commercial register are eligible to apply, as are legal persons governed by private law who are registered in a foreign country, based on the rules applicable in their country of establishment.
Further information is available from the Integration Foundation website here (link in Estonian).
Proposal rounds last year (link in Estonian) led to 19 grants being issued in respect of cultural events relating to Estonia and implemented in 14 countries: Latvia, Finland, Sweden, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Norway, Italy, the U.K., Moldova, Russia, Canada, and the U.S.
Concrete examples include the 35th West Coast Estonian Days (U.S. - pictured) teaching Estonian folk dance (Netherlands) celebrating the anniversary of the restoration of Estonian independence (Finland). Estonian choirs abroad were also supported in this way.
The proposal funds derive from the Ministry of Culture, under whose remit the Integration Foundation lies.

Unconsciously, we give credence to these allegations. We become inwardly defensive and absorb emotionally the negative charges directed against us. As alcoholics struggle defensively to deflect these charges, they might say, "It's not that big a problem" or "I'm trying, it's not my fault, I don't know what comes over me." Even as they defend in this way, they still "buy into" the allegations or harassment dished out by the inner critic. This means they absorb the negative criticism and take it to heart. Consequently, they can experience considerable shame and self-loathing.
All of us have inner weaknesses, and we usually can overcome them when we understand them. If we want to excel at some endeavor or sport, for instance, we work on our weaknesses. With tennis, for example, a person might have to work on a weak backhand or weak serve. If we want to play the game of life and excel at it, we have to consider what weaknesses might impede us. Some people are weak athletically, or intellectually dull, or socially awkward. Alcoholics are weak in emotional and behavioral self-regulation, as are people with many other kinds of psychological challenges. We can empower ourselves with deeper self-understanding.
For the most part, alcoholics could just as easily be addicted to drugs or struggling with an eating disorder. Their addiction is not about alcohol per se. The heart of their addiction lies in their inability to stand up to the cruel and unjust allegations of their inner critic (superego). They don't know how to live in inner freedom or how to liberate themselves from inner conflict. This is a psychological weakness, not a moral or character weakness.
The theory of addiction to which I subscribe is based in depth psychology. It recognizes that our psychological weakness can be exacerbated by genetic flaws or other biological factors, yet it identifies unconscious conflicts in our psyche as the main problem. When we understand these conflicts, we can resolve them. Doing so strengthens us on an inner level, producing enhanced self-regulation. As part of this inner strengthening, we learn to keep our inner critic at bay. We see the inner critic more objectively as a part of us that has no business holding us accountable or passing judgment on us. We also see the part in us—inner passivity—that serves as an enabler of the inner critic. As we acquire insight and strength, we no longer give credence to the pronouncements of the inner critic. The inner critic retreats into the background and becomes less problematic.
I don't at all wish to emphasize the idea that alcoholism is an "inner weakness." Alcoholism arises, at least in part, out of inner conflict, and all of us, not just alcoholics, have some degree of inner conflict. Alcoholics can become emotionally stronger and experience self-regulation by seeing more clearly the roles that their inner critic and inner passivity play in the weakening of their resolve. We all have an inner critic in our psyche, along with inner passivity, and we all struggle at times to maintain emotional equilibrium and to practice healthy self-regulation.
Factors cited for causing alcoholism include high levels of stress, anxiety, tension, or emotional pain. Yet where do these high levels of distress come from? They can certainly arise when a harsh inner critic is bullying us and getting away with it. Our challenge is to understand clearly the nature of this major conflict in our psyche. Our inner critic or superego dishes out self-aggression while our unconscious ego traps us in inner passivity. When we learn to stand up to the self-aggression emanating from our inner critic, we're in the process of resolving the inner conflict. That conflict can only continue when, through inner passivity, we allow the inner critic to get away with its unwarranted and frequently cruel intrusions into our life. Our inner critic has no business butting into our business and passing judgment on us. Yet due to our inner weakness it gets away with bullying us. To become stronger, we have to stand up to it.
Tormented by their inner critic, many alcoholics descend into self-loathing, self-condemnation, and even self-hatred. Unable to connect with their own goodness and value, they can't recognize or affirm the goodness and value in their family members, nor can they protect them from emotional instability, financial danger, and social disgrace.
A report published this year says that former alcoholics who feel shame about past drinking are more likely to relapse. That shame is produced by an inner critic that refuses to go away, even during abstinence.
With a harsh inner critic, people find it very difficult to feel good about themselves. The inner critic can belittle and ridicule us to the point that we become depressed. (Read, "The Hidden Cause of Clinical Depression.") Meanwhile, inner passivity makes some of us more likely to come under the unhealthy influence of drinking buddies who have no interest in our well-being. Through inner passivity, people can also be more easily influenced by advertising that portrays drinking in glamorous terms.
Alcoholics Anonymous has had great success for a variety of reasons, chief among them the warmth and kindness of its members. Alcoholics are warmly welcomed to the organization. Each alcoholic is accepted unconditionally. Each person is important, and members strive to help each other. This emotional generosity is a powerful antidote to the harsh belittling inner critic. The individual can use the kindness of the group to counteract the effects of the inner critic. Armed with evidence of one's value, the individual can cause the inner critic to retreat—yet this approach doesn't eliminate it. The inner critic can return with a vengeance, particularly when a relapse occurs. Typically, a relapse comes about as a result of the compulsion to plunge back into the unresolved inner conflict and to face the wrath of the inner critic.
The "Big Book" of Alcoholics Anonymous urges members to admit they are powerless over alcohol and to seek the help of a "higher power." Through depth psychology, in contrast, the higher power is developed from within. This connection with one's essential self, encompassing a new quality and depth of consciousness, emerges within us as the conflict between self-aggression and inner passivity is resolved. The resolution of this inner conflict greatly invigorates our intelligence and will to thrive. Through the new sense of self that emerges, we connect with our goodness, value, and strength. A craving to drink, should it arise, is no longer overwhelming. We acquire the determination and ability to support ourselves emotionally.
Alcoholism is just one way among many that psychological weakness manifests. When we examine the true sources of our self-defeat, we acquire emotional and behavioral self-regulation.

Directions: When you come off the M5 take Warndon exit A4440. At the next roundabout take the 3rd exit, passing the Beefeater on your right, turn right onto Bridgewater Road, access to the car park is on the right.
"Premier Inn brilliant, breakfast next door needs a new chef!"
Extremely good stop over whilst travelling 0n M5 very close by to M5 but nice and quiet, much better than motorway hotels.The facilities next door are fine but we did not eat there so can not comment.
Surprisingly busy on this trip. Comfortable and relaxing stay. Hotel easily accessible and quiet inside with little noise heard outside. Breakfast more than ample. Supplies replenished quickly. Interestingly on first night were asked what time aiming to go to breakfast but probably due to being so busy. Extra tea/ coffee and milk easily sourced when ran out.
From arrival to departure the staff were very professional & caring. As a wheelchair user I felt really looked after by the staff both in the hotel and the restaurant. Their level of care & attention was second to none, will definately return.
"Great venue for relatives visiting for family celebration"
This stay at the Premier Inn was a treat for my brother and his wife - who travelled from another city - to stay here overnight in order to join us all for our family birthday celebration. They said they really enjoyed their stay and were impressed with room, breakfast and staff. Many thanks.

Then, at the end of the day, fill up in our tasty Beefeater restaurant and drift off in our big, comfy beds.


Goods could be conveyed by water for one quarter of the cost of road carriage.
Some forty steam engines and 5,000 houses in Macclesfield were currently supplied with coal at a cost exceeding by one third that which it would cost if canal transport could be used.
Great hardship to both the rich and the poor had been caused by the lack of a canal.
Material required for the manufacturing industries, imported through the ports of London and Liverpool, would be cheaper with canal transportation.
Grain, and the other staples of life, would be reduced in price, as would timber, slate, flagg, and stone.
Macclesfield was at the centre of a flourishing manufacturing district. There were other competitors so why should the district be handicapped by the lack of a canal? This south east part of Cheshire was also rich in coat, freestone, lime, and timber.
It was recognised that there would be two canal companies whose business would be affected by the proposed canal - the Trent & Mersey Canal and the Bridgewater Canal. The Duke of Bridgewater built his canal 'through some of the finest estates in the country' to foster the trade of Manchester by connecting it with the port of Liverpool. Manchester, at that time, was scarcely larger than Macclesfield was at this time. Some sixty years previously a group of businessmen had been successful in a project to connect the Trent with the Mersey so that Nottingham, Derby, and the Potteries could be linked by canal with both the North and Irish seas.
The editorial went on to highlight the foreseen problems with the Trent & Mersey Canal Company and the Bridgewater Trustees – that both would object to the proposed route which would save some twenty-five miles on the journey between Manchester and London. It was argued that the proposed Macclesfield Canal would, in fact, generate new business for the other two canals.
At the meeting on 22 September 1824 a number of resolutions were passed.13 It was agreed that a canal was required because Macclesfield and its surroundings had a population of some 30,000 people and was sixteen miles from the nearest canal. A Committee, consisting of the five townsmen who had organised the meeting, together with the Mayor, was appointed. The Committee was requested to win the consent and cooperation of landowners on the proposed line. The towns of Stockport and Congleton were also to be invited to co-operate in the venture. The meeting was then adjourned to Wednesday 6 October 1824.
An editorial in the newspaper of 25 September 1824 argued the case for the proposed line. An earlier idea for a canal from Sale on the Bridgewater Canal via Macclesfield would only have passed through farmland and would not have served local coal mines. The current thinking could also see a line from the lower level of the Peak Forest Canal to Red Bull, but numerous country estates would be affected. The favoured line, in contrast, would well serve farmland, mines and quarries. There was a growing market for coal in Macclesfield, twenty-five factories having been built in the town during the previous six years.
The town of Congleton was keen to take part in the venture. John Johnson, the Mayor of Congleton, had just been re-elected. At his reception he proposed 'Success to the intended new canal from Macclesfield by way of Congleton to Lawton '. One of the people at the reception, a Mr Clement Swetenham, said that he had attended the meeting in Macclesfield and had pledged Congleton's support. This comment was evidently well received by the people at the reception and it was decided to call a meeting in Congleton to discuss the proposed canal.14 This meeting took place in Congleton on Monday 4 October 1824 where it was decided that a deputation would attend the forthcoming meeting in Macclesfield to co-operate in the promotion of the canal.
Canals were subject to drought in summer and on average were liable to two months stoppage in every year due to frost.
The only obstruction to which a railway was subject was snow in the winter.
The proposed line of the canal was at a very high elevation and the supply of water might be a problem.
A canal was costed at £6,000 per mile whilst a railway was costed at £2,000 per mile.
In Mr Wakefield's opinion the consent of landowners would be more easily obtained for a railway than a canal. Mr Ryle replied that he still favoured a canal and that there would be sufficient water due to the junction with the Peak Forest Canal alone, without even tributary streams feeding the canal. He felt that landowners would prefer a canal rather than having 'a railroad transversed by smoking steam carriages '. The overriding advantage of a canal in this instance, he felt, was that through traffic would be possible to and from the Trent & Mersey and Peak Forest canals without the problems of loading and unloading goods. Mr R. Leycester MP commented that, although he had spoken at a previous meeting in support of a railway, he now wished to withdraw that request fearing that division within the Committee would lead to a delay. He felt that Macclesfield's need for cheaper transport was very important at this time. The Government had removed the prohibition on the importation of foreign silk which necessitated domestic manufacturers to reduce the price of their goods.17 Parliament, he felt, should offer every opportunity for manufacturers to meet such lower prices. A canal would help them to a considerable extent.
Mr Cholmondeley also supported the idea of a canal, saying that a canal was the preferred option of the trades people of the area. He feared that any indecision might reduce the take up of the shares in the project. The Committee should press ahead with the present canal project but should also give careful consideration to the comparative advantages and disadvantages of a canal over a railway. At this point the meeting agreed that the subscription should be for a canal rather than a railway.
We heard of the appearance of a gentleman deeply interested in the success of railroads, but as soon as he was shown Mr Telford's report he was off again like a shot, leaving canal triumphant in possession of the field.
The Courier of 6 August 1825 printed Telford's preliminary report on the projected Canal.27 In it Telford states that he had finished all the trial levels and surveys. During this work he was accompanied by a Mr Brown 'who is thoroughly acquainted with all the various localities '.28 Telford's plan was to branch from the summit level of the Peak Forest Canal at Marple and continue at that level past Macclesfield and to the north-east side of the river Dane valley where the canal would lock down to the summit level of the Trent & Mersey Canal. From the bottom of the locks the line would cross the Dane-in-Shaw valley and pass about half a mile south east of Congleton. It would join the Trent & Mersey Canal at the north end of Harecastle Tunnel. Telford stressed that the canal would be on two levels only, and that he had no concerns about water supply – 'The line I have described passing, for the whole of its length, along the skirts of mountainous country, the means of obtaining supplies of water are abundant'. He examined five possible sites for the construction of reservoirs. In his report Telford also considered the alternative line for the canal which would run from the summit level of the Trent & Mersey Canal across 'a lower part of the country' to the Peak Forest Canal. He rejected this line for a number of reasons, particularly because it would not have passed near the mines, quarries or manufacturing locations of the district. Telford also considered the requirement of a branch to Stockport, but decided against it, because the town was 270 feet below the line of the projected canal and was already served by the Ashton and Peak Forest canals.
That application is intended to be made to Parliament in the next session, for a Bill to make and maintain a navigable cut or canal, together with reservoirs, channels, feeders, and other works, and conveniences, to be connected therewith, from. and out of the Peak Forest Canal, at or near the northerly end of the summit level of the same canal, in the township of Marple, in the parish of Stockport, in the county palatine of Chester, to join and communicate with the canal belonging to the Company of Proprietors of the Navigation from the Trent to the Mersey, at or near a certain lock upon such canal, called Harding's Wood Lock, in the township or hamlet of Talke, or Talke-on-the-Hill, in the parish of Audley, in the county of Stafford, and near to the northerly end of the Harecastle Tunnel, and which said navigable cut or canal, reservoirs, feeders, channels, and other works, are intended to be made from, in, through and into the several townships of Marple, Lyme Hanley, Poynton, Pott Shrigley, Adlington, Bollington, Rainow, Tytherington, Hurdsfield, Macclesfield, Sutton, Gawsworth, Bosley, Wincle, North Rode, Buglawton, Congleton, Newbold Astbury, Moreton, Odd-Rode, and Church Lawton, in the parishes of Stockport, Prestbury, Gawsworth, Astbury, and Church Lawton, in the said county palatine of Chester, and the said township or hamlet of Talke or Talke-on-the-Hill, in the said parish of Audley, and county of Stafford.
