Thanks: 1949 in 9 Posts
It's just as good, and that article is biased. It's written by the fussy people that always ruin everything for everyone.
MAJOR SPOILAGE ALERT
The episode was so great, loved it. the Blain/Rachel kiss was HOT and I loved their song. Blaine is adorable drunk <3 and then since they're all hung over Kurt and blaine crash at his house, and LOL at when burt comes in to find Blaine sleeping in Kurt's bed :D
jesse can't be back, cause he was a senior, and um MAJOR SPOILAGE
I'm pretty sure that Sue is the new Oral Intensity coach

I admit, that was one of the most risqué episodes prime-time (or at least in N. Amer.) television has ever done with 'high school' characters - and definitely the most risqué in Glee history. Critics probably will slam it and punch it and kick it and throw hissy fits over it. I had a moment of "OMG is that actually Glee?" watching it, and as a teacher-in-training, I have to say that I wasn't entirely impressed by the way the topic of teenage drinking was handled. But it was still pretty good.
Also, Jaylo, that's a known fact. Sue did take over the role of coach for Aural Intensity (I'm pretty sure this is the correct spelling, but I guess either works - Aural refers to hearing, Oral to speaking) as of last week's episode.

oh whoops, not oral intensity, the other one, Vocal Adrenaline. But seriously, I think Glee is being realistic about the alcohol thing, at least for my school. Sure maybe they should've had a stronger message, but I really feel like that's the exact approach my school is taking towards it. They can't stop us, they just try to warn us of the consequences. It's a pretty open topic at my school.

Well you can see episodes here: http://www.fox.com/glee/full-episodes
Why would she be coaching Vocal Adrenaline? What happened to Rachel's mom? Sue said she was coaching Oral Intensity... didn't she?
And I'm watching it right now and am about halfway through - drunk Santana is hilarious!

Lol, I'm rewatching it, just finished the party/kurt's bed scene. Darren is AWESOME
I agree! THAT WAS HILARIOUS! I laughed my head off! I knew that they hadn't actually done anything though... otherwise it would have been a bit more... emphasized.
Aw, that sucks!
That would be very interesting if Sue did replace Shelby... However I do believe she said that she was coaching Oral Intensity... After all she pushed the original Oral Intensity coach down the stairs so that she could take his job.

Also, I think the US (and Canada? not sure bout you guys) has stricter rules about what can and can't be shown on TV doesn't it? I know there's loads of swear words you can't say on US TV but you can say on UK TV certainly. And some of the soaps had been pushing boundaries (well, kinda) recently. But I guess I can't judge it until I see it, which is hopefully not too far away...
CAB Code of Ethics, Clause 10 – Television Broadcasting (Scheduling)

What Glee did with Blame It on the Alcohol wouldn't have qualified under the code.

OH MY GRIM REAPER!!!
Literally...
Seriously though! I never expected anyone on the show to die. PLEASE DON'T BE DARREN/BLAINE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE...

Mmm, that interview was quite some time ago, however (Nov 15) - RM is notorious for changing his mind. I was leaning a bit towards Blaine, myself, until I found this. Now, I'm almost wondering if this isn't how they're going to write Lauren out of the season to make room for Kurt and Blaine, if Darren Criss has indeed been picked up as a regular for the rest of the season and the next.
Also, new spoilers for the "Regionals" episode - from the looks of the titles that ND are performing, makes sense to me that whoever dies this week inspires the songs for Mar 15 (the air date for regionals).
OMG Warblers taking on P!nk's "Raise Your Glass"???? *keels over*

Haha, the Warblers would win at anything they'd do. Wait... writing Lauren out of the season? How come she's leaving? Poor Puck lol.
I do hope Darren Criss will stay though (being a fangirl of sorts). Even if they "change their mind" I don't think they would just boot him from the show.
PS: I would put that "dies" part in a spoiler... since it is a major spoiler.
27th Feb 2011 at 12:48 PM
Noooooooooooooooooooooo. Not my Puck! :P
Gah. That episode doesn't air for another two weeks, I believe. I'm going to die of anticipation before I ever see it.
I've got a feeling that this has just been a bit of a publicity stunt and the bird is going to be the one who dies. It would certainly effect the Warblers in the competition. Rumours are going round that Kurt is going to sing Blackbird and someone will sing their swan song before dying. Unless that's a red herring?!?! GAH! I JUST WANT TO KNOW NOW! I don't think it will be Puck though, they could have gotten rid of him when he disappeared for driving off with the convenience store ATM (lol, I still find that funny) if they'd wanted to.
It seems likely for it to just be the bird who dies. That would make sense for Kurt to sing a song about a bird. Yeah, Puck is one of the most popular characters and I highly doubt they would kill him off.

I definitely think it's the bird. I don't think Ryan Murphy can afford to lose anyone without contracting a huge rage. IT would deeply affect the warblers, and maybe Kurt since he was 'caring' for the bird at the time. I definitely think Darren should join Mckinley. To help Kurt and prove that he can make in in a normal school with bullies and stuff. He said he regretted ditching, maybe he'll try again?
Unless Darren was right and Blaine does get killed by robocop.
Arg! I'm already going through withdrawal - there was no Glee episode this week (they stuck AMERICAN EFFING IDOL in there instead). Why must they taunt us with such things?
ETA: If you read way down on the Ausiello file, there's also some discussion about whether it's
Jacob ben Israel who dies.
It would almost make sense with the hints that they've given us so far.
OH MY GOD!!!!
What if it's Sue's sister?!?!?!
I remember watching reruns of season one, and when Sue and her sister were together being heartwarming, I was just like: She's going to die. I think it would be a Ryan Murphy move.
ForeverCamp, him?
http://glee.wikia.com/wiki/Jacob_Ben_Israel
I can't see it being him, as he has no reason to die so far...
Well it could be Sue's sister, since she is a minor character too, but that would just bring Sue down again into a rut, and she seriously just got out of one.
I'm just hoping it's not Blaine now.
I really can't see it as being Jacob, he's too minor and is more of a throwaway joke. The only ones who would be affected is maybe his non-existant mom and Rachel's panties.
If it's Blaine, I will grab my dad's chainsaw and will personally see to Mr. Murphy. It can't be Blaine, it can't be Blaine, it can't be Blaine. I'm too much of a Darren fan.

Yup. But only because it's turned into season-long discussions about anything and everything Glee under the sun. I don't mind, though.
Though I agree, he's a throwaway character, which is why I can't see how his death would affect the competition. Also, it wouldn't just be Jacob's swan song, it would also be his first song. Unless of course he sings for the first time next week...
What I could see as a logical progression in this would be Jacob posting a video on his blog of him singing, hoping it'll get him some popularity, getting ridiculed and then suicide. The clip that GleeOnFox released on Youtube for next week has all members of ND in it, if anybody's interested. I was ticking them off a checklist. I doubt Kurt-Blaine is on the chopping block.
Also, based on the lyrics of the original songs for the Regionals ep (Loser Like Me and Get It Right), which were supposed to have been inspired by the upcoming death, it would make sense for the death to come from a 'throwaway' or a social outcast. Ergo, Jacob putting himself out there and being ridiculed, followed by a suicide.
I'm a little worried about how they work a serious topic like a suicide into an episode that looks as humour-heavy as "Sexy" (Holly Holiday - Gwenyth Paltrow - is back, teaching sex ed). Unless it happens right at the end of the episode, and it picks up in the Regionals episode?
Also, I want Volume 5 so badly, you have no idea. However, I'm not sure if a new volume will come out around my birthday in May (I told my parents to let my little brother know he can get the newest Glee CD for me for my birthday, since I'd already bought the newest ones at Christmas when he came up with the idea). So no Vol 5 for me until I see a new one coming out.

I'll let you know what happened as soon as the episode ends tomorrow!
So, another awesome episode. No deaths. It was funny, and sad, and I just about cried when Santana and Brittany had their talk and sang "Landslide". Kurt and Burt having "the talk". Oh my. It was wonderful. I can't wait for Regionals next week - it looks amazing!

More about the epic spoiler to come v v
So my mom reckons is's going to be Emma's husband what's-his-face. John Stamos. Apparently he's not coming back next season. I guess it's a possibility. However, I kind of hope it's the bird and hope that it's not the bird. The bird would be a cop out but I love all the characters so much....
Just you wait though, it'll probably just turn out to be nothing.
but yeah, the originals are surprisingly good and I love blackbird <3

You are quite sure that you didn't just have black coffee, arugula or dandelion greens, but there is a lingering bitter taste in your mouth. It's actually a common condition and it can be due to a number of causes. If you are bugged by an unfavorable bitter taste in your mouth, read on to know some of the most common culprits behind it.
Experts say that cigarette smoking can damage your taste buds, which can definitely impede your ability to taste. What's more, it is something that can leave all sorts of nasty tastes in your mouth, ranging from bitter to metallic. There is no denying that quitting smoking is good for your overall health as well as your taste buds.
Tobacco smoke is not the only one that can leave a bitter taste in the mouth, but a handful of other chemicals, too. The inhalation of the likes of benzene, gasoline and rubber dust can also cause the problem. So if your job entails being exposed to those, chances are that your work environment is the one responsible for that bitter taste.
Most of the time, failure to clean your mouth properly can cause you to sense a bitter taste. This is especially true if your tongue is covered in lots of debris, dead cells and bacteria. Make sure that you practice good oral hygiene to get rid of that pesky taste. It's a good idea to thoroughly clean your tongue with baking soda.
Having poor oral hygiene, eventually, can lead to an assortment of dental issues. Teeth problems and gum disease can cause a host of unfavorable signs and symptoms, and one of them is having a bitter taste in the mouth. Seek the help of your dentist right away at the first sign of a dental problem for you to receive proper treatment for it.
If you are suffering from acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), then it is very much likely for your mouth to taste bitter especially during a bout of your digestive problem. Evidently, that bitter taste is due to the backing of stomach acids and other stomach contents up your esophagus, throat and mouth.
Sometimes, the cause of that annoying bitter taste is something as simple as dehydration. Most likely, the unfavorable taste is accompanied by mouth dryness and thirst. In order to avoid the problem, make sure that you drink plenty of fluids a day. Experts recommend for you to drink about 8 cups or water daily to ward off dehydration.
Having a cold or flu can definitely wreak havoc to your ability to properly taste food. Sometimes you may also have this persistent bitter taste in your mouth. Worry not because the said problem tends to go away gradually as your upper respiratory tract infection clears up. Clean your mouth properly throughout the course of the infection.
Speaking of respiratory tract infections, having stuffy nose can leave you with no choice but to breathe through your mouth. This can leave your mouth really dry, and it's something that can cause a bitter taste. Remember to drink plenty of fluids and take lots of rest in order to have the respiratory tract infection resolved asap.
Last but not least, if you are in the family way, your pregnancy is most likely the reason behind that bitter taste in your mouth. This is perfectly normal because of the hormonal imbalance that goes with pregnancy. Sucking on lemon or menthol hard candies can help eliminate the bitter taste and others that go with it, like queasiness.
If the bitter taste you are having in your mouth doesn't seem to want to go away, see your doctor. Sometimes it can be due to nerve damage, salivary gland infections, vitamin deficiency and others.

'A Day At The Airport: A Photography Exhibition by students of The Williams School'
October 1 – December 31, 2022
Students from The Williams School in Ms. Jessy Griswold's Photography I and Photography II classes in grades 10, 11, and 12 visited the Groton – New London Airport in Spring 2022. Equipped with digital and manual film cameras, students explored and captured images of life at the airport; this included the water training center and the military aircraft repair area. Students returned to campus with their footage and created the final images you see in the exhibition. In the darkroom, students used traditional techniques to edit and develop their photos, while students in the digital studio used Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom for their editing process.
The Williams School photography students were happy to celebrate National Aviation Day (Aug. 19) in this way through their art, honoring the less seen aspects of all things aircraft.
Groton – New London Airport's terminal is open daily from 7 am to 6 pm for public viewing of the exhibit. Parking is easily accessible and free.

Previously on Exhibit – White Light by Faith Satterfield
The winter 2022 exhibit WHITE LIGHT, was presented by Faith Satterfield, a locally and internationally trained illustrator and visual artist. The inaugural showing of this exhibit featured paintings that are a mixture of latex, acrylic and spray paint on canvas.
Faith Satterfield explains her title and vision for the show are that "WHITE LIGHT is an accumulation of passion for color in a world that seems so black and white" and that "the science of light and the humanity of the heart meet as we ingest a visual journey of hope."
Satterfield is a teaching artist, originally from Griswold, Connecticut. She teaches art classes for non-profit organizations in southeastern CT at libraries, schools, studios, and local community events for families. Faith says her approach is based on a theory that "creativity exists in all of us – on different levels and in infinite ways; that no effort is ever a mistake – it is a moment before the next one and always to be celebrated." In 2013, Faith founded By Faith, an artistic production company which now includes Murals By Faith and Paint Parties By Faith. The company has produced private murals, large scale outdoor public murals, and illustrations for design agencies.

The United States Coast Guard International Ice Patrol's mission is to monitor the iceberg danger in the North Atlantic Ocean and provide relevant iceberg warnings to the maritime community. The Ice Patrol was established as a direct result of the tragic sinking of RMS Titanic in 1912 after striking an iceberg. Except for the years of the World Wars, the Ice Patrol has been active each ice season since 1913.
The International Ice Patrol Operations Center (OPCEN) is the hub for information processing and dissemination. OPCEN is staffed by dedicated watch standers that receive iceberg reports from a variety of sources, process the information, and create daily iceberg warning products that are distributed to mariners. Fixed wing Coast Guard aircraft conduct the primary reconnaissance work for the Ice Patrol and depart from the Groton-New London Airport.

Previously on exhibit – Slater Memorial Museum's Panels from Brought to Light: Ellis Ruley in Norwich
The Southeastern CT Cultural Coalition is pleased to announce the Art At the Airport program's spring exhibit, panels from Slater Memorial Museum's "Brought to Light: Ellis Ruley in Norwich," that opens on May 13 and will be on view through July 30 at the Groton – New London Airport.
The Art At the Airport program's purpose is to showcase the region's uniqueness, history, industry, culture and geography through visual arts in the airport's main terminal located at 155 Tower Avenue in Groton. The Art At the Airport program is a partnership of the Cultural Coalition and the Connecticut Airport Authority.
From the Slater Memorial Museum – "Ellis Walter Ruley was born in Norwich in 1882 into modest circumstances. More unusual circumstances made him financially comfortable during the Great Depression; unusual for anyone, let alone an African American with a passion to paint. He died under suspicious circumstances in 1959 after establishing himself as a local "outsider" artist, and after his death, his work became highly collectible and even more revered. By 1996, a book cataloguing his work was published and a major retrospective exhibition toured the country. But in Norwich his grave was still unmarked, his homestead was derelict and his death remained a mystery. Decades later, the community, the City and local officials have embraced this native son and a celebration of his life is taking place. Under the auspices of the Ellis Walter Ruley Commemoration Committee, his homesite has become a public park with interpretive panels; a play has been written about his life; elementary and college students have been assigned to create their own works, inspired by his magical imagery.
The exhibition, Brought to Light: Ellis Ruley in Norwich, was developed by the Slater Museum and presented last fall."
Previously on Exhibit – New London's ISAAC Students' Nationally Acclaimed Photography Exhibit
The Southeastern CT Cultural Coalition is pleased to announce the Art At the Airport program's winter exhibit "Community Faces," presented by the Interdistrict School for Arts and Communication, opening on February 6. The exhibit will be on view through April 30 at the Groton – New London Airport.
Students from New London's Interdistrict School for Arts and Communication (ISAAC) created "Community Faces – Humanizing the Immigrant Label" – a project in which students wrote stories, took photos, shot videos and designed websites for a traveling exhibit and a book about sixteen local immigrants who came to the United States. The project was one of eighteen winning Better World Projects selected by a committee of Expeditionary Learning (EL) Education students, teachers, and leaders, from submissions across the country and featured at a national conference. The exhibit at Groton – New London Airport will feature portraits from the project and includes interactive, mobile phone QR component for additional information.
Previously on Exhibit – Bela Lyon Pratt: Sculptor of Monument presented by Slater Memorial Museum of Norwich Free Academy
Bela Lyon Pratt (1867-1917) was born in Norwich, Connecticut to Sarah (Whittlesey) and George Pratt, a Yale-educated lawyer. Together, Pratt's maternal grandfather and great uncles Orramel, Henry and John Whittlesey, started the first American piano making company in Salem, Connecticut. Orramel also founded, in 1835, the first music school, for women, in the country authorized to confer degrees to teach music, Music Vale Seminary, in Salem, Connecticut.
Bela studied art at Norwich Free Academy, Yale University's School of Art, and in Paris. He worked in the studio of renowned American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens and, in 1892, created two large sculptural groups representing The Genius of Navigation for the World's Fair in Chicago.
Bela became an influential teacher of sculpting at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts Boston and received numerous commissions for monumental public work around New England, including the figures representing Art and Science for the Boston Public Library; Literature, Science and Art for the Thomas Jefferson Building of the Library of Congress; the Andersonville Boy on the grounds of the State Capitol, Hartford, Connecticut; Nathaniel Hawthorne in Salem Massachusetts; Captain Nathan Hale for Yale University and placement at other sites, as well as Governor John Winthrop in New London and Captain James Avery in Groton, Connecticut. The exhibition panels reveal his work and life, including the influence of his wife Helen Lugarda Pray Pratt, also a sculptor.
Previously on exhibit – Life Without Limits from United Cerebral Palsy
United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) of Eastern CT, a Waterford-based organization, showcased pieces of art in a variety of mediums including mosaic, sculpture, and paint on canvas. The artists are individuals with disabilities who, along with staff UCP staff members, work together to create one piece of artwork annually to display at the Hygienic Open Art Exhibit. The exhibit was a collection of work created over the years. All artwork is a collaboration between the people making the piece, from its initial conception to completion. Individuals participate in any way they can, whether making a choice about paint color using eye gaze or physical participation using a hand over hand technique.

The Slater Memorial Museum of Norwich Free Academy presented John Meyer of Norwich: An American Original. Throughout Connecticut and beyond, women fondly remember John Meyer of Norwich. Now considered classics of 20th Century design and function, his line of clothing featured everything from "Bermuda" shorts to preppy A-line skirts, Argyle to Fair Isle sweaters. John Meyer of Norwich was an innovator in fashion for an emerging demographic of career women and college girls. Working with other technological innovators, he revolutionized the garment manufacturing process, introducing cutting-edge methods still used today. In addition, John Meyer's factory and design business provided employment to dozens of Norwichians. The exhibited panels reveal the person and the company.

One spring afternoon, not long after she and her new husband John moved into the community, Marianne Siebert of Florence, Kansas, decided to visit their elderly neighbors, the Mc Linden's, who lived about a mile and half up the road.
The weather was perfect, so Marianne decided to saddle up her 12- year- old Arabian stallion, Phar, and ride him over to the neighbors. When she got there, she dismounted and, reins in hand, approached the back door.
Apparently, the neighbor had just polished the glass in the storm door, because it shone like a mirror. Marianne knocked twice and waited with her horse peering over her shoulder. After a minute a two, she decided her neighbors weren't home and she turned to leave when she noticed that Phar was staring at the gray stallion in the glass with fascination. He squealed and pawed the ground – and so did the stallion in the window, because it was, of course, his own reflection.
Marianne tugged on the reins, but old Phar refused to move. Marianne was starting to get a bad feeling, and she became more forceful, tugging hard and slapping Phar with the reins. Finally, the big horse moved. He swung around, and with both hind legs, bashed in the door!
We often talk about opportunity knocking – it rarely bashes in the door, but it does come knocking on occasion. Someone once said that if opportunity came disguised as temptation, one knock would be enough. That may be true. We also think about Jesus standing at the door and knocking. You probably all remember that classic painting that depicts a saintly looking Jesus with long flowing hair and glowing white robes just about to knock on a little cabin door. I wonder how many have noticed that there is no door handle visible in that painting. The only way to open the door is from the inside. Jesus isn't going to break down your door – you have to open it on your own.
These two images – opportunity knocking and Jesus knocking – converge in our Gospel lesson for today. Two fishing boats stand empty by the side of a lake. The fishermen have given up for the day. They are standing near the boats, cleaning up their nets. Their faces are weary with discouragement. They aren't fishing for sport or amusement or relaxation – this is their livelihood, this is their profession – and things are not going well.
If you've ever started a business, you know the feeling. There are a lot of rewards running your own business, but there are also a lot of times when it feels like the wolves are right outside your door, too.
Farmers know the feeling. You realize with a sinking feeling that this year's crop is not measuring up. It's not because you didn't work hard – that's the frustrating part. You worked harder than ever. But the rain came at the wrong time, there was too much, or there wasn't enough – it's just not going well.
Even young people know about times of discouragement. You work hard studying for a test, but when you look at the questions, it seems like you studied all the wrong things. You had hoped for an "A", and now you just want to pass.
We've all felt the same sense of discouragement these fishermen were living with, haven't we?
The troubled man went away and did what the Rabbi said, and here is what he found – the listing of the lifetime batting averages of all the greatest players in baseball. Ty Cobb, the greatest slugger of them all, had a lifetime batting average of only .367. Not even Babe Ruth could match that.
All of us get discouraged at times. We can sympathize with those fishermen standing by their boats with empty nets, nothing to show for the work, batting a whole lot less than .367. All they can do now is clean out their nets, wash down the boats and hope for a better day tomorrow.
Whenever Jesus jumps onto the stage – whenever Jesus steps into the scene, he does just that. He shows us struggling children of God what to do.
There was once an old lady in a land hostile to the Christian faith who was thrown into prison because of her religion. She was frightened and alone – but into the scene stepped Jesus. Instead of being bitter or scared, she learned to thank God for confinement, as Jesus had thanked God for his trials. "Now I can be alone with my Lord," she said.(4) Jesus had shown her what to do – be thankful to God in all things.
Years later, Wesley was stopped by a man after church, who asked him "Do you remember me? I robbed you one night, and you told me that the blood of Christ cleanses all from sin. I have trusted Christ ever since, and he has changed my life."(6) That reformed criminal was just one of many through the centuries who were headed down the wrong road until Jesus stepped into the scene.
Here we have the answer to all our feelings of discouragement, disillusionment, and emptiness. Let Jesus step in to the scene. Let him jump onto the stage of your life and show you exactly what to do.
These fishermen in our story from Luke had worked all night and had caught mothing. They were tired. They were discouraged. They were frustrated. Then Jesus stepped into the scene. Notice what Jesus told them to do. He told them to push out into the deep. He told them to throw their nets on the other side of the boat. What he was really telling them to do was exercise their faith. Faith in him, faith in their own abilities as fishermen, and faith in the abundance of the sea. It was Peter who spoke up- "Lord we've been at this all night and we've caught nothing." But Jesus's gaze never wavers, there is a long pause, a deep sigh from Peter… "But if you say so, we'll do it." Jesus restored their faith, and that was precisely what they needed at that particular moment.
I wonder how many of us need that same word. Do you know what the biggest barrier to success is for most people? It is the fear of getting started. It is the fear of pushing out into the deep unknown. It is the fear of change. Our biggest barrier to success is our reluctance to take action, because we are afraid.
That's what the disciples did and you know what happened? They caught so many fish that they nearly sank their boats. It would not have happened if they had not exercised their faith. But they pushed out and took a chance and what a catch they had. But they had to get out there and put down their nets first.
Our lesson for today says the same thing – let down your buckets, cast out your nets. Don't be afraid to exercise your faith. This is still a wonderful, abundant world that God has created for us. Trust what Jesus says and push out into the deep waters of your life. You are not alone. For Jesus is ready to step into the scene, onto the stage of your life. Answer the door when you hear the knock of opportunity. Jesus isn't going to break down the door, but if you trust him, he will give you new life.

Weather vanes are very good instruments for experiment and play. They tell us the direction of the wind. Making weather vanes at home is really simple. You can use items that are present in the kitchen or at your own storage rooms. To make a fun weather vane, try to think of a theme that you can shape so it would look good on your roof top or at your backyard. They can be considered a decorative feature on your home. Weathervanes usually use metal sheets. However, let us create our own by using cardboard and wood.
Choose a pattern for your weather vane. It can be a farm animal like a cow or a sheep or other things that are shaped from nature like a whale or dolphin. Draw the object on your cardboard using your pencil. Make it fit to the sizes you want or we can go for about thirty centimeters by twelve centimeters for a start. Cut it out using your heavy duty scissors.
Trace the same pattern on another cardboard or wood and cut it out. Staple the two cut outs together at an interval of two inches. Make sure you leave enough space for the broom stick or piece of wood that is thin and long in which the cardboards will be inserted.
Use 10" broom stick to be inserted in between the pattern cut outs. Put glue on one side of the stick before placing it in between the patterns. Afterwards, mold the pattern around the stick and let it dry for a few minutes.
Once it is dry, you can customize your weather vane by painting it with any color. Play with the colors to create the theme you want. Match it with the color of your roof or the color of your wall.
Attach the pattern to the wooden dowel. Place the finished weather vane on your rooftop or on your garden around the flower bed or you can attach it to your mailbox or stair railing. Make sure that the weather vane will move along with the wind. And make sure you secure the construction so that it will not be blown away by a strong wind.


Did Sexism Kill These Two Women?
Be warned: I'm about to make you very, very angry. Possibly enraged.
Still with me? OK, deep breath in, let it out s-l-o-w-l-y … and let's dive in to this effed-up quagmire of outrage.
Last September, Anna Brown died in a jail cell in Missouri, alone and in agonizing pain. We know this because we have footage from the prison security cameras. We also know that for three days prior to her death, Anna complained of extreme pain in her leg and went to several different hospitals seeking treatment and relief. In each case, she was treated for an underlying ankle sprain and released by providers who said there was nothing more they could do for her. Ultimately, she ended up in St. Mary's Hospital emergency room, where she refused to leave after once again being dismissed. So the hospital had her arrested for trespass. She was carted off to the local lock-up, where she died later that day.
An autopsy revealed a blood clot had formed in her leg — which undoubtedly caused the extreme leg pain she complained of — and had worked loose and found its way to her lungs, where it killed her.
Anna clearly did have some "complex social problems" — the MSNBC article linked to above recounts a horrible tale of escalating tragedy that started with a tornado and ended in that jail cell last September. But let's be clear here: Anna didn't die because she had "complex social problems." She died because hospital after hospital failed to take her pain complaints seriously and a lethal blood clot went undetected.
I'll say it again: colon cancer. No MRI or full body scan was ever performed.
I'll be the first to admit that we may not know all the facts on either case. But I will state this categorically and without hesitation: I absolutely believe that in both cases, their pain complaints were either ignored or significantly discounted, and I believe that happened quite possibly solely due to their gender. One of them was written off as a schizophrenic. The other was possibly dismissed as some drug-seeking homeless woman and arrested.
In Ms. Brown's case, the hospital's hand-washing dismissal of their own culpability is particularly infuriating. Yes, blood clots are hard to diagnose in some cases. But the critical factor here was that the hospital's employees discounted Brown's pain complaints; we know that's true because they had her arrested to get her out of the ER, and had they taken her complaints seriously, that would never have happened.
Now, let's pretend these same two events happened to men. Would the outcomes be different? I submit they very well may have been, for one simple reason: when it comes to being taken seriously by our medical care providers, the two genders are often treated wildly disparately.
If two people — one male, one female — with the same demographics (age, weight, height, social status, etc.) come into the same ER complaining of pain in the same part of the body, and each rates the pain as "6 out of 10," the man tends to be viewed as downplaying his pain, while the woman tends to be viewed as exaggerating her pain.
I don't know if any studies have been done on this phenomenon — I hope somebody looks at it, because I suspect it's far more rampant than even the anecdotal evidence I hear would suggest.
So, did sexism play a role in these women's deaths? Would a more prompt response for either have saved their lives? I don't know – but I know at least Ms. Howan wouldn't have died viewed by the people who should have been helping her as a schizophrenic, and Ms. Brown wouldn't have died moaning alone in a jail cell.
And maybe I wouldn't be so freaking outraged right now.

A recent article, "Obesity Linked to Worse Fibromyalgia Symptoms," caught my attention.
The article covers the findings of Mayo Clinic researcher Dr. Terry Oh, who discovered a link between obesity and increased severity of fibromyalgia symptoms.
I mean, it might not be "duh"-worthy, but I can't ignore direct experience.
See, excess weight has plagued me almost all of my adult life. As I struggled post-diagnosis to lose weight, my fibro symptoms did, in fact, get worse and ease off as the numbers on the scale rose and fell, respectively.
And I'm not alone, I know. According to the CDC, which lumps fibromyalgia into arthritis-related conditions, over 60% of adults in the US who've been diagnosed with some form of arthritis (including fibromyalgia among other conditions) are overweight or obese. That's a lot of potential fibromites who are struggling with their weight and, presumably, the increased pain that comes with excess weight.
Of course, many fibro patients cannot exercise aerobically at the level needed to aid weight loss.
Note: I said "aid" — you cannot lose weight with exercise alone. Which is the good news for fibromyalgia dolls — the thing we can't do isn't the biggest part of successful weight management, but the thing we can do — i.e., get our eating under control — is key.
So what are we supposed to do about it, then?
Right: eat fewer calories, with more dense nutrition per calorie.
And yes, I know that's much easier said than done. Hell, I've struggled with my own eating for years … sometimes more successfully than others. Lately, I had a weight gain that's somewhat mysterious to me. I don't think I ate that much … but yet, the scales don't lie. To me, that conclusively establishes that it's far too easy to eat mindlessly, instead of mindfully.
But now I've got even more reason to get my own eating under control: if there's a chance that losing weight — even a little — will ease up these symptoms and the increased pain I've experienced since the weight gain?

You will not read a single blog post, Facebook status update, tweet, or news article today that's more important than what you're about to read right now. I promise you that.
This is a call to arms to all women with chronic pain, and every single person out there who knows and cares for them. A woman in Vermont needs help desperately.
The stakes couldn't be higher. She is quite literally on the verge of being out on the streets at the age of 49, where she will have to deal with chronic pain, a recent traumatic injury, harassing debt collectors, joblessness, and hunger – not to mention the grave physical danger that women face every single day on the streets of our cities – alone.
This post is my attempt to prove to her, and to all of us, that she is not alone.
Her name is Alexandra Jarrin, and she's a remarkable woman.
Last fall, when Senator Bernie Sanders made his courageous stand for all the millions of unemployed Americans everywhere, Alexandra organized the "Letters to Bernie" campaign, where she encouraged others who were unemployed like her to send their written stories to the Senator's office.
She became a face for a group that's generally thought of as faceless by our more fortunate fellow Americans, and her efforts were highlighted on major media outlets like the New York Times, CNN and Huffington Post.
Then she lost her housing. She'd been staying with a friend, but that friend's landlord issued an ultimatum to the friend: "Kick Alexandra out, or get evicted yourself." With the generosity of friends and strangers, Alexandra has been able to stay in hotels since then but won't be able to do so past today, as of the publication of this article at Huffington Post.
High blood pressure, diabetes, Fibromyalgia, Hyperparathyroidism, gallstones and kidney stones and God knows what else they are going to find. The worst thing I ever had to deal with was several kidney stones and the treatment for them.
Like the vast majority of unemployed Americans, Alexandra wants to work. She's applied for over 3,000 jobs in the three years since she lost her job. Her car payments are late, and the lender is hounding her several times a day. Without that car, she has no hope of finding a job or getting to her doctor's appointments.
Like the vast majority of unemployed Americans, Alexandra is not looking for a handout. She doesn't want to get rich off public funds. Alexandra's goals are a little less lofty: to find a job, to locate a safe place to live, and to make it to her fiftieth birthday later this month.
Senator Sanders' staffers said they'd helped her, but it turns out what they did was tell her what she already knew: the names and telephone numbers of local agencies in her area.
My readers know I'm familiar with Alexandra's situation, because I've lived it all too recently. Now that I'm climbing back on my feet, what I want most in this world is to win a lottery so I can turn right back around and help people like Alexandra, the way others helped me. Barring that, what I want is for each and every one of my sister chronic pain cope-rs to join me in helping Alexandra with $5, $10, $50, or whatever they can spare. (I've sent $50. You send what you can.) I don't want one more woman to lose almost everything because of chronic pain, the way I did.
Conventional wisdom says "Don't give money to individuals. If you want to help, give it to reputable agencies." I'm here today to tell you that this advice, however well intentioned, is wrong. It's wrong for right now, at any rate. In this environment, yes, agencies are hurting. But people are skating the line between survival and not-survival.
The stakes could not be higher. Nothing else you read today will be as important as this.
I'm here today to beg you to help an individual. To help this individual. And if you're not comfortable with that, then by all means go out and look for an Alexandra on the street corners in your own hometown. I promise you, you'll find her.
And when you do, help her. Give her money. Get her a hotel room for a night, if you can. Buy her a phone card or a meal or a tank of gas. Help the person right in front of you.
Alexandra is the person right in front of me.
Alexandra can receive PayPal transfers at ajinvermont@gmail.com. If you want more information about her, to put your mind at ease before you send her money (perfectly understandable), Michael Thornton from Layofflist.org (who wrote the two HP articles I've linked to in this post) has offered to serve as a point of contact. You can write to him at mike@layofflist.org.
Spread this link to everyone you know. Tweet it, put it on Facebook, write it down on a sticky note and put it under the windshield wipers of every car in the lot of the local mall. No, it won't solve the larger problem. It won't save every Alexandra. But it will help save this Alexandra. And nothing else you do today will feel that good.
If you just cannot spare $5, how about volunteering your time? I don't know what she needs besides money, but will attempt to find out. When I was going through what Alexandra is dealing with now, I know that people who offered to do things – scour Craigslist ads for housing opportunities, for instance – were truly angels in human form to me.
The stakes could not be higher. Nothing else you read today will be as important as this. Alexandra could be any of us. She is any of us. Please help her however you can.

I never had migraines until last summer. After a particularly stressful series of events one day, this blinding, throbbing pain began tormenting me.
I took three Excedrin, crawled into bed, turned out the lights, and covered my forehead and eyes with a cold wet cloth. A few hours later, the pain had faded enough to allow me to get vertical again. It happened two more times last fall, each incident separated by a few months.
Then last week, my eleven-year-old daughter, in obvious distress, began reciting an all-too-familiar list of symptoms—her head hurt, she felt sick to her stomach, light hurt her eyes, and sounds were too loud.
Before these personal experiences, I didn't really give much thought to migraines as a source of chronic pain, I confess. Now, I'm in tiger mama mode, researching juvenile migraines and scheduling a visit to my daughter's doctor.
Stretchy Body, Stretchy Blood Vessels?
And that's how I found this piece from MSNBC.com: "Ultra flexible? You're at triple risk for migraines" (Reuters). It reports on a recent study performed by Dr. Vincent Martin, professor at Ohio's University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, which showed that women with joint hypermobility syndrome are up to three times more likely to experience migraines than their less flexible counterparts.
Joint hypermobility syndrome isn't really a pain condition—it normally requires no treatment. (A more severe form called Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a whole 'nother kettle of fish.) But it can be an indicator of what Martin calls "stacks" of other medical conditions that do cause pain, such as fibromyalgia, chronic neck pain, and sleep disturbances—and, apparently, migraines.
Martin's working hypothesis was that JHMS, marked by "extra-stretchy" collagen in joints, could also be an indicator for increased risk of migraines. This is because the collagen (a crucial component in body structures like joints and blood vessels) should be overly elastic throughout the body. And if that's true, the collagen in the blood vessels would also be overly elastic—and that, researchers already believed, is associated with chronic migraines.
Martin expected an increased risk but the actual results surprised him. The rate of migraine occurrence in the control group was 43%, but in the test group, the rate shot up to 75%. After factoring in age and medication usage, this figure translated to three times the risk for migraines for women with joint hypermobility syndrome, who also experienced migraines more than twice as often, with an increased occurrence of aura.
Of course, as we know, that "publishing" part is pretty critical in order to support further studies and advances in treatment.
Do you have migraines? Tell me what you do to make yourself feel better in the comments!
I'm especially interested in hearing from moms of young children who experience migraines. I got a few great tips from Twitter the other day (I'll be asking Princess's doc about Maxalt, and we're looking into nutritional changes as well—thanks, tweeps!) but information is power, Dolls, so let's share!

Well, whichever, indeed, because labels don't mean a damn thing when we're getting hit by the mass media tsunami. And how could you have missed it, really? Don't you know? Prescription pain drugs are evil!
It's enough to make a sane CP blogger/activist (note the lack of capitalization, Marianne?) get a little depressed. Excuse me – a little more depressed, since everyone knows we're already, all of us, bawling buckets of messiness, right?
LORD. I've been rolling my eyes all week, so hard that I've got a perpetual headache. And – what's this, Marianne? A CP patient experiencing pain who doesn't run to the nearest pharmacological stewpot? Yeah, that's right. Guess what. I'm not alone. Guess what else? It's MOST of us who don't overmedicate.
Except people like Marianne and the sensationalist authors of the above pieces and the scowling big-daddy sheriffs of North Carolina don't want to see that. They want to see the scourge, the tsunami. Sure, they'll wrap it all up in soft, caring words but underneath it all is the sense of disdain and superiority over anyone weak enough to want to take a pill to alleviate their CP.
And at the heart of that, ladies and gentlemen, is the blessing of never having had to deal with it yourself. Once you cross over into this great land of All Pain, All the Time? You are changed. Perpetually and inexorably and profoundly changed.
I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Not even Marianne or the sheriffs. Now, it seems as though Marianne had a daughter who died from an Oxycontin overdose. That's tragic, and incredibly sad. It should not have happened.
Oxycontin is a drug. It's a potent one, to be sure, but it's not the devil. Nor are the people who make it, nor are the people who take it.
You want a devil? Look around at the them vs us world you've created, every time you urge the public to believe that prescription pain medication will absolutely, definitively kill them, no doubt.
Look long and hard at the prosecutions of good and caring doctors who – horrors! – use the medications as they're supposed to be used: to relieve their patients' pain.
Hell, just look at the criminalization of drug use — not dealing, mind you but merely use! We're going to put people whose only crime was using a drug in jail. No, that makes no sense to me. You know who belongs in jail? Murderers. Rapists. Thieves. Politicians who steal or take kickbacks. Dealers. You know who doesn't? Drug users or abusers. That? Is a sickness. Want to know how I know? Because a lot of really smart people got together and SAID SO.
Yeah, that's what our overcrowded prisons need: throw a bunch of mentally ill people in GenPop because they're mentally ill.
We are not required to live our lives in pain. We're just not.
But if this scare-mongering continues, then – well, as much as I hate the role of Cassandra, mark my words, folks: We will none of us have access to the prescriptions that can save our lives.
So, it's Pain Awareness Month, you may have heard. Isn't it time we all spoke up? Shouldn't there be someone saying this stuff in a more public forum? I wrote to a contact at APF to share that Marianne op-ed this week. The response I got indicated that they just don't even respond to her anymore. I can't say I blame them. She's obviously a little self-important and if the best platform she can manage is the "Salem News" website, then – well, whatever.
But shouldn't the din of voices clamoring about "Pharmageddon" and "sheeple being led astray" (Oh, God, can I just make a new rule right now? No more made up words. And if you do make up a word, it has to at least be clever. "Pharmageddon" and "sheeple"? Do not qualify) — shouldn't there be at least an equivalent counter-chorus? Somewhere?
It's enough to give a CP girl a headache.
And note: I'm not even reaching for the Tylenol(tm).

NASA and Russia Are Teaming up to Build the First Space Station Orbiting the Moon
NASA and Russia's space agency Roscosmos have signed a joint statement expressing their intent to collaborate on the development of a space station.
Specifically, a station that will be further from Earth and orbit the moon as a stopping point for lunar surface exploration and deeper space research.
"While the deep space gateway is still in concept formulation, NASA is pleased to see growing international interest in moving into cislunar space as the next step for advancing human space exploration," Robert Lightfoot, NASA's acting administrator at NASA Headquarters in Washington said in a NASA press release announcing the news. "Statements such as this one signed with Roscosmos show the gateway concept as an enabler to the kind of exploration architecture that is affordable and sustainable."
The plan is to explore deep space near the moon and will begin with the first integrated mission of the SLS rocket (Space Launch System) and Orion spacecraft. Then, NASA aims to launch one flight per year after the second mission which contains a set of integrated human exploration objectives that will merge the International Space Station, SLS, Orion and others needed to support human-backed missions to deep space.
"NASA is working with domestic and international partners to solve the great challenges of deep space exploration. Missions in the vicinity of the moon will span multiple phases as part of NASA's framework to build a flexible, reusable and sustainable infrastructure that will last multiple decades and support missions of increasing complexity," read the statement on their website.
Much like the ISS, the action of once again unifying nations towards the goal of exploring the final frontier seems like a good idea, but opinions are emerging that lean towards the contrary.
"It's critical to ask whether building another space station, one that costs ten times as much as the ISS to service and supply and comes with a significant decrease in crew mission duration, would really be a stepping stone", writes Terry Virts in an Op-ed for Ars Technica.
Though, it is important to note that space exploration is one of few topics that promote cooperation between Russia and the USA.
Deep Space Gateway
This effort is a part of NASA's "deep space gateway" concept which is broken into two phases. The overall aim is to get further from Earth than ever attempted before, to aid NASA is developing new techniques and approaches to prepare for longer missions far from Earth, such as a trip Mars.
The first phase involves building a crew-tended spaceport in lunar orbit which will serve as a gateway to deeper space and the lunar surface. This gateway will have a power bus, a small habitat, docking capability, an airlock and will be serviced by logistics modules for research.

New Year is commencing in a big style for London's Lazarides Gallery. The renewed gallery founded by Steve Lazarides, most known as being the right hand of Banksy, welcomes as its first big star in 2015 the American sculptor and installation artist Mark Jenkins, who will have his debut solo show at the Lazarides space. The Jenkins' show entitled Moment of Impact will be just what you would expect from the controversial artist – new life-sized sculptures and three-dimensional canvases, as well as some of the most notices works from many projects and shows spanning the past two years. Interesting and shocking as always, Jenkins will continue in 2015 to break boundaries and social interaction and the manner we engage with urban environments.
Moment of Impact extends Mark Jenkins' multidisciplinary practice and thought-provoking interventions into the gallery space for the first time. The show follows the artist's popular appearance in Lazarides' group showcase BRUTAL last October, in addition to various international exhibitions throughout America and Europe over the past year. Some of the 2014 highlights include Miami Art Basel, Nuit Blanche Paris and widely acclaimed shows in LA, New York and Cologne. As well as within formal gallery program, Jenkins' outrageous interventions can be found in major cities across the globe, challenging the way in which the public engage and experience urban environments.
The debut solo show Moment of Impact opening January 16th will introduce a new collection of child-sized sculptures constructed in situ alongside mixed-media still life canvases, continuing the artist's signature themes from his kicked paintings series. Jenkins attempts to remove himself from conceptual ideas associated with creating each artwork, instead focusing on the medium and production process, allowing the finished work to initiate its own relationship with each new space it inhabits. The powerful installations of the Washington based artist transform the ordinary into the sudden, cutting through social standards and provoking powerful intuitive responses. The context in which the installations are viewed undisputedly influences the way in which the works are examined, from public displays to formalized gallery curated exhibitions, each provoking a complex dialogue of questions and open-ended narratives.
This is why every Mark Jenkins' show is a turmoil of many things, emotions, visual experiences and constant questioning. Moment of Impact opens the third week of January, on Friday, 16th at one of London's most hip art spaces, Lazarides Rathbone, and it will stay on view until February 5th, 2015.

Ted Cruz Criticizes Democrats on So-Called 'Ghost Guns'
"It's a name that is intended to scare people. It's designed to make people think that certain firearms are more dangerous than others, that certain firearms are beyond the reach of current law."
Iris Poole | May 12, 2021
Senator Ted Cruz (R–TX) actually outpaced O'Rourke among non-native Texans by a margin of 57–42.
On Tuesday, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz delivered remarks at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on "ghost guns," a phrase used to describe homemade firearms.
"Last Friday, the Biden administration published proposed regulations to significantly expand the regulation of firearms in this country. That proposed regulation and this hearing both focus on so-called 'ghost guns.' It's a name that is intended to scare people. It's designed to make people think that certain firearms are more dangerous than others, that certain firearms are beyond the reach of current law," said Cruz.
Cruz addressed the misconception that homemade firearms are somehow different or more dangerous than any other firearm, stating that "under the law, [if] the person commits a crime with a homemade gun, they will be prosecuted just the same as anyone else."
"If we want to have a hearing on gun violence, there are real topics to discuss. Gun violence and violent crime is a real problem in this country. It's not the made-up problem of 'ghost guns.' But in 2020, gun violence soared to rates not seen in 20 years, with over 19,000 people killed by homicides and unintentional death, not including suicides."
A report from the U.S Department of Justice found that 6 percent of violent criminals stole their firearms, 43 percent received their firearms from underground markets, 25 percent obtained them from another individual, and 7 percent purchased their firearm legally.
Zero criminals said their firearms were homemade, or "ghost guns."
Ted Cruz also cited a TIME magazine report showing that gun violence in Chicago jumped more than 50 percent in 2020, and homicides rose by 55 percent compared to 2019. The murder rate in 2020 was 37.3 percent higher in New York and 37.5 percent higher in Philadelphia, when comparing to 2019.
Cruz noted, "These cities, of course, all have things in common. They're all run entirely by Democrats, they all have strict gun control measures that criminals don't follow. Law-abiding citizens are disarmed, the criminals are not, and the deaths follow accordingly. They're also all epicenters of the Democrats' radical push to defund the police."
Regarding past legislation targeting violent criminals rather than law-abiding Americans, Cruz encouraged Chairman Richard Blumenthal (D–Conn.) to join Sen. Chuck Grassley (R–Iowa) and himself in the Grassley-Cruz legislation that was introduced nine years ago, which focused on finding violent criminals, improving background checks, improving the database, and prosecuting criminals who lie and attempt to illegally purchase a firearm.
The vote on Grassley-Cruz came in a Democrat Senate in 2013, the year when the proposal first appeared on the Senate floor; it received 52 votes, nine of which were from Democrats. The bill had received the most bipartisan support of any comprehensive legislation. However, it failed after Democrat senators, including all three senators present at the committee hearing, voted against it and filibustered it, blocking legislation to combat violent crime.
"Why? Because the objective instead is to target law-abiding citizens. That does nothing to stop crime, but it does a great deal to undermine our constitutional rights," said Cruz.

Andy Smith is the Ceo of Three Magazines, Owner of Multiple Newspapers and Continues to Push the Boundaries of the Entrepreneurial and Communications World. Find Out More Below.
Many times, we are pushed into a certain mold in order to follow a certain path or way of life that may or may not truly fit who we are. In reality, it is often our differences that make us more powerful and more able to accomplish our goals in life. However, it can be incredibly difficult to break that formed mold or path because there are very few people who have attempted it beforehand.
Andy Smith is one of these incredible people whose different way of thinking and operating allowed him to achieve success. Growing up, Andy realized he had a special gift that allowed him to reach a goal no matter what was going on.
"One of my biggest strengths is my ability to be focused despite external stressors. I believe that skill has given me staying power as an entrepreneur. My endless ability to persevere despite setbacks has been a driving force that sets me apart from competitors. I just have the bold courage to keep showing up day after day. I share this resilience to my followers to encourage them to keep going," Andy states.
Andy grew up in a single parent household that was not always the easiest of homes. However, it was in this environment that he was first told that he was different from others. This became an ever present piece of his upbringing that he would carry with him forever.
"I grew up in a single parent home. Life wasn't really bad but of course it could have been better. I was always told I was different. So, growing up embracing my differences was a key element to my childhood development. As any child/teen, I've had my share of trials and found myself in some not so favorable situations. It seems as the more my mother taught me right from wrong the more something wanted me to go down the wrong path," Andy recounts.
Andy now runs multiple businesses including three newspapers, is CEO of three magazines, and will be working on a new and exciting adventure in the next month or so:
"In about the next 30 days or less, I will be releasing my first Social Media App, iChat Global and iChat 4 Kidz. I also have authored 8 books. So it's been an exciting journey. I have an amazing following of entrepreneurs and creatives that follow me, so I love it here," Andy details.
What separates Andy from others in the same business, in addition to his special way of thinking, is that he feels he has truly found the niche for him. He doesn't have to work a day in his life because he loves what he does and excels in it.
"I believe everyone is born with special gifts and talents. When a person discovers their niche it makes it harder for those who are "competing" to content with those who are operating in alignment. However, as a business man I can't deny that there is competition for gifted people operating on purpose as well. We don't get to be slack or lackadaisical in our operations because of harmony and alignment. We still have to do the hard work to remain relevant, strive to be better, take honest assessments about where we are so that we can continually evolve into greater versions of ourselves and allow the business mission to be made manifest," Andy remarks.

UEFA: All European cities confirm readiness to host matches of postponed Euro
MOSCOW, June 17. /TASS/. All 12 European cities selected earlier to host matches of the 2020 UEFA Euro Cup, which was moved for the next year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, confirmed their readiness to host the games of the major European football championship in 2021, the UEFA press office announced on Wednesday.
On March 17, UEFA decided to postpone the 2020 UEFA Euro Cup for exactly one year as a preventive measure against the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. The championship is now scheduled to be held between June 11 and July 11, 2021.
The matches of the 2020 Euro Cup were initially scheduled to be held at stadiums in 12 different cities across Europe, namely in London (England), Munich (Germany), Rome (Italy), Baku (Azerbaijan), Saint Petersburg (Russia), Bucharest (Romania), Amsterdam (The Netherlands), Dublin (Ireland), Bilbao (Spain), Budapest (Hungary), Glasgow (Scotland) and Copenhagen (Denmark) between June 12 and July 12, 2020.
"The 12 original UEFA Euro 2020 host cities will stage the tournament when it takes place in summer 2021, with the UEFA Executive Committee also confirming the updated match schedule for the finals," the statement from the UEFA press service reads.
"All existing tickets remain valid for the tournament in 2021, though buyers who wish to return their tickets will have a final opportunity to request a refund from 18 to 25 June…," according to the statement. "Dates for potential future ticket sales – including for fans of the four teams that qualify via the play-offs – will be confirmed at a later date."
The UEFA Executive Committee held an on-line video conference on Wednesday discussing various issues, including the resumption of numerous European club and international teams' tournaments, which were put on hold earlier in the year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"I am delighted that we are able to resume almost all of our competitions. I am confident that we will not have to endure the fans' absence for long and that they will be allowed into stadiums sooner rather than later," UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin told a news conference following the Executive Board's session.
"UEFA took a bold decision when it decided to postpone EURO 2020. But in doing so, we created the space which has allowed domestic club competitions across the continent to resume, where possible, and play to a conclusion," Ceferin continued. "While the game has suffered huge difficulties as a result of the pandemic, those blows would have landed much harder if we had not shown leadership in those early days."
"The football community has worked together and shown tremendous unity during this unprecedented crisis," the UEFA presidents stated. "I would like to thank FIFA, our sister confederations, national associations, clubs, leagues, players and the relevant authorities for their continuous support and commitment and I am convinced that we come out of this crisis stronger and with closer links than ever before."

Apple has somewhat surprisingly approved an app which offers free USB tethering from your 3G-enabled iPhone and iPad devices. iTether may not be around too long so get it while the going's good.
An app, which allows unlimited tethering to your laptop from your iPhone or iPad's 3G has arrived on the App Store... but for how long?
The iTether app, which costs a one-off fee of £10.49, has somehow made its way through Apple's notoriously scrupulous approval process, despite the company's partnerships with the mobile phone networks that charge extra for using your iPhone or iPad as a hotspot.
"Tether is an application that allows your Mac and PC to take advantage of your smartphone's data plan, providing you access to the Internet on your laptop anywhere there is cellular coverage from your smartphone," says the description on the App Store.
You'll need to download software to your PC or Mac laptop and plug your iDevice into the USB port and you'll be good to go.
It is unlikely that the app will remain on the store for too much longer, as soon as the networks get wind of how much money they could potentially lose. So, download it now before it's gone for good.

Die Royal-Company-Inseln sollen um 1776 unter 49° 40' S; 143° E von dem spanischen Schiff Rafaelo von der "Königlich-Spanischen Compagnie der Philippinen" () gesichtet und benannt worden sein.

Eine andere Positionsangabe vom November 1840 stammt von Walfängern und beträgt 50° 40' S; 142° 36' E.

Die Rafaelo befand sich auf einer Fahrt vom Kap der Guten Hoffnung zu den Philippinen.
In Wirklichkeit muss diese Sichtung wohl einige Jahre später stattgefunden haben, denn die Compañia wurde erst 1785 gegründet. Sie betrieb einen Direkthandel zwischen Spanien und Asien und spanische Schiffe befuhren im späten 18. und frühen 19. Jahrhundert tatsächlich das Meeresgebiet südlich der Tasmansee.
Bereits am 1. März 1840 wurde die Nichtexistenz der Royal-Company-Inseln von der United States Exploring Expedition festgestellt und nachdem die Antarctic 1893–1895 unter Henrik Johan Bull vergeblich nach der Inselgruppe suchte wurde sie 1908 von der britischen Admiralitätskarte des Pazifiks getilgt.

Zwar gibt es auf dem 143. Längengrad Ost kein Land; nimmt man jedoch bei der Übermittlung der Daten einen Abschreibfehler an (statt 143° E 173° E), käme man in annehmbare Nähe der Antipodes Islands (49° 42' S; 178° 50' E) bzw. der Auckland Islands (50°50' S; 166°00' E). Aber es ist auch gut möglich, dass die Rafaelo – wie im Falle der Nimrod-Gruppe – an der fraglichen Stelle Eisberge oder speziell geformte Wolkenbildungen für Land hielt.
