Are you sure?

Deleting an anime from your list means all your tags, ratings, statuses and all those are gone. Forever. Unless you add them and type them in again. But that still takes time.

              Yeah, delete 'em.
              Nah, keep it.

10th October 2009 At 8am Jenny, Betty and I were picked up by our guide and began a scenic drive along the Atlantic coast, passing through the cosmopolitan suburb of Sea Point and Camps Bay with its glorious views of the Twelve Apostles, part of the Table Mountain range. We continue to the fishing village of Hout Bay and take a short boat trip to Duiker Island to view the Cape Fur Seals, which inhabit the island. There were local markets and lots of street entertainment. Set high up agains the mountains, overlooking Hout Bay Beach is Lichtenstein castle. The castle has 13 en-suite bedrooms, a library and a bar. It is only accessible by private road and helicopter and is situated on 8 500m² of land, which boasts a natural waterfall and swimming pool. The castle was previously run as a guesthouse until it was snapped up by its Russian owner for a cool $26m. The castle was originally built by South African businessman Reynier Fritz in 1986. The building was meant to replicate the Schloss Lichtenstein castle in southern Germany. We continue to follow the coastline along False Bay, by way of Simon's Town, where we visit the Penguin colony at Boulders Beach. They were everywhere, under cars in the car park, sunbaking, swimming, and I was amazed how close we could get to them. From here we travel to the Cape Point Nature Reserve, comprising over 17,300 acres of indigenous fauna and flora. Here we saw a variety of wildlife, baboons, rhebok, Ostrich, numerous birds and the elusive eland. The reserve is also one of the world's largest breeding grounds for tortoises. The majestic coastline offers drama worthy of being called "Nature's Greatest Show." We saw the union of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and felt the brisk wind that is dubbed the "Cape Doctor" for its presumed curative powers. We headed back to Capetown and watched the clouds slowly descend over Table Mountain. We freshened up and headed down to the Marina for Tea. It was an incredibly magnificent day.......................

The University of Findlay's Buford Center for Diversity and Service has been awarded a $13,400 Findlay-Hancock County Community Foundation grant that will fund diversity projects between students and organizations.
The project, titled "Pursuing Cultural Humility," will pair 10 UF students with community nonprofits and coalitions to bring mutually-beneficial, sustainable initiatives to fruition. Students will be selected from UF's diverse student body, while the Center for Civic Engagement, a community nonprofit located at UF, will assist with identifying partner organizations for this 8-month endeavor.
The goal is for UF students and community members to have ongoing, intentionally-designed experiences that will enlighten local and campus communities. This engagement will enhance the University's ongoing off-campus diversity outreach efforts, and will address a regional need, listed in a 2017 "Community Conversations" Foundation report, that showed residents are interested in having a more diverse, accepting and inclusive community.
The grant will also fund collaborative work with the Diversity Center of Northeast Ohio, which will offer presentations and seminars to program participants.
"Pursuing Cultural Humility" is a pilot project, noted co-organizer Crystal Weitz, director of service and community engagement at the Buford Center. Assessment will be conducted at the end of the spring 2019 semester to determine program effectiveness, she said.
The Community Foundation's grant assessment criteria included whether projects would have widespread impact, be innovative, and involve collaborating partners or other significant outreach plans.
"For this particular grant cycle, the goal of each grant is to celebrate and build appreciation for diversity in Hancock County," said Foundation Communications Officer Genna Freed.
For more information on the Buford Center's Pursuing Cultural Humility program, please contact Chris Sippel, associate vice president for International, Intercultural and Service Engagement, at sippel@findlay.edu; Crystal Weitz at weitz@findlay.edu; or Robert Braylock at braylockr@findlay.edu.
The Findlay-Hancock County Community Foundation will improve the quality of life in Hancock County through collaborative leadership, responsible grantmaking, and the development of philanthropic giving. Established in 1992 as an outgrowth of a one-time gift from L. Dale Dorney, the Community Foundation has granted more than $23 million to fund projects that support our community.

Javascript AST parser for 'simple' expressions.

## Install

~~~bash
npm install -g karma-cli
npm install
~~~

## Run tests

~~~bash
karma start
~~~

## Usage

~~~js
var tree = Tokenize('1 + foo');

console.log(tree);
~~~

## Supported expressions

* Numbers (1, 1.23)
* Strings ('foo')
* BinaryExpression (+-%/\*)
* LogicalExpression (|| &&)
* Identifier (foo)
* Objects (foo.bar, foo['bar'])
* Arrays (foo[0])
* Functions (foo(), foo('bar'))
* Nested expressions (a || b && c)
* Literals (true, false, null)
* ConditionalExpressions (foo ? true : false)
* Unary Expression (!foo, --bar)
* Assignment Expression (foo = 'bar')

## Roadmap

* Performance
* More operators
* Compile AST to callable
* Throw error when string could not be parsed

~~~js
var tree = Tokenize('1 + foo');
var callable = Compile();

callable({foo: 2}); // Outputs '3'
~~~
* Better and more usefull errors

### Add support for

* foo++
* foo--
* !activeTab || activeTab === 'intern'
* !foo || bar
* foo.bar.baz['a']['b']

### Todo tests

~~~js
foo['a'].bar.baz
// fails, outputs. property should be type: identifier with value: baz
{
	"type": "Object",
	"object": {
		"type": "Object",
		"object": {
			"type": "Identifier",
			"value": "foo"
		},
		"property": {
			"type": "String",
			"value": "a"
		}
	},
	"property": {
		"type": "Object",
		"object": {
			"type": "Identifier",
			"value": "bar"
		},
		"property": {
			"type": "Identifier",
			"value": "baz"
		}
	}
}

Located in American Ranch is this sprawling home has magnificent views.
The stone pillars create a rustic element in this exterior patio. Creating a natural transition between the home and the land.
One of the main goals of any design by Adams Architecture is to make sure each view is maximized within the floor plan of the home.


There are so many fun things to do in San Diego! If you are traveling with a child please consider visiting this park. LEGOLAND California is the best theme park for kids!
After visiting 16 theme parks in the last 2 years I feel like I have some authority on the topic. We've been to theme parks in different states, different countries, as adults, with our son, with his grandparents, etc.
We've loved almost all of them for very different reasons, and I can definitively say that LEGOLAND California is the best theme park for kids!
As soon as we walked into the park my son was given a LEGOLAND California pop badge. It's a 2-piece plastic badge that snaps onto your shirt. He loved wearing it around! We later heard that you can ask ride attendants for ride-specific pop badges! We tried out this tip on the Ninjago attraction (which was pretty cool!) and, sure enough, the attendant was happy to give Whit a Ninjago pop badge!
Accumulating pop badges wasn't just fun for our son, it also meant we could get away with not buying him a souvenir. Because seriously… who doesn't love freebies?
What LEGOLAND California understands more than any other theme park we've been to is that little kids have short attention spans and need variety. The park is dotted with fun playground sets, interactive fountains, rides, snack booths, lego statues, etc. to fit a small child's wandering interests.
You really can't expect a small child to be willing to wait in lines all day, so it's really incredible to have so many different play options to fit whatever mood they change into!
Not only are there lots of playgrounds, but they are all awesome! There is something for children of every age and plenty of space for them to all play together.
Having water options really helps break up the day and take a break from the hot California sunshine.
These options aren't just relegated to a specific area, either. If you're on your way to a ride and your child suddenly has a burst of energy, chances are a playground is within sight. If your child starts complaining of being too hot after running on the playground, turn around and you'll probably see a water installation.
My personal favorite theme parks are ones that feature thrilling rides, but at 48″ tall Whit isn't allowed to use many of those.
LEGOLAND California is specifically built for smaller children, so there wasn't a single ride or attraction he couldn't go on! He felt so special getting to choose any ride, instead of having to ask if he would be allowed on.
There are the standard theme park food stands of hot dogs and pretzels, and then there's LEGOLAND California's fried Apple Sticks with sweet dipping sauce, chocolate-filled churros, and popcorn in each store. Yum.
Not only are the stands full of really delicious sweet treats that kids will go nuts over, the restaurants offer decent kid's meals! We usually buy a small food item for Whit when we dine at theme parks, but LEGOLAND California has a bag lunch for kids that all kids and parents would love. Choose from a hot dog or nuggets and also get an apple or fries, raisin box, Honest juice box, and a colorful LEGO collector bag for $8.99.
This doesn't sound like a big deal. I know. But once I took Whit to the bathroom I was struck by how important it actually is!
They had stalls in the women's room with low toilets, and sinks and hand dryers of varying heights. It was so much easier for Whit to go to the bathroom without help or struggling to reach handles.
It made me really happy to see even this small act that gave him more confidence and independence!
Is it ignorant of me to say that I didn't expect to see so many LEGO statues before heading in to the park? We were greeted by an incredible LEGO rainbow dragon and a lake with other LEGO animal statues as soon as we walked in. There are more LEGO statues around the entire park, which never ceased to captivate Whit's attention.
As I said earlier, small kids have low attention spans. It really helped Whit stay happy during the long walks between attractions to see such cool, colorful statues on our path!
Not only are LEGO people, animals, and buildings really interesting to both children and adults, the bold colors of them, the attractions, and signs are extra engaging to small children. Bright, contrasting colors help small brains develop and hold interest, so waiting in line or walking was a breeze since we had so many colors around us to stay interested!
It's easily the most visually appealing park we've ever been to!
In addition to near-constant LEGO statues, bright colors, fun food stands, playgrounds, attractions, and water installations to keep your kids interested there's also fun music playing throughout the park. Because kids need even more stimulation, right?
My personal favorite was a group of rocks on a grassy hill playing "We Will Rock You" as you walked past on the sidewalk. Sooooo funny!
When it comes to our son we love to sing songs to help him switch gears or distract him into a better mood. He recognized a lot of the songs playing throughout the park, which really helped him stay positive! Music is so powerful, after all!
This playground is full of play houses made to look constructed from giant Duplo blocks. Kids can interact with these favorite blocks in a new way by playing in them, and can also use them for special building stations inside certain play houses!
There is a driving course for children ages 6-13, which comes with a LEGOLAND driver's license when completed! Be warned, this activity is popular and may have a line!
This ride allows two people to share a bench. The bench moves up and down a tower when the riders pull a rope. Ride attendants keep track of which bench is going fastest, which makes it even more fun! One reason we loved this particular ride is that it faces the LEGOLAND lake, which provides a great view of the park!
This was one time I walked away from my son because I was so interested in what was around me (don't worry, his Dad was with him). Mini Las Vegas, Mini New York, Mini California, and more are built out of LEGOs. Some aspects are even motorized! I was awed to see the detail LEGOs were able to produce, especially making words and signs! It's incredible!
A row of Star Wars characters are built along the sidewalk. There's a group of people at each one admiring their favorite characters, but there's enough space between them that the entire sidewalk isn't too crowded. If your kid loves Star Wars do not miss this opportunity to see them in an entirely new way!
This is a self-guided tour. You walk through a hallway that winds around different displays of machines that are used to make LEGO bricks. Our son loves electronics and knowing how things are made, so this was a highlight for us!
Star Wars characters, kid sized friendly bathrooms, kid designed bag lunches, water every where and kid sized rides with short lines what more could a mom or grandma ask for when taking her child out for the day? I'd love to take my children and grandchildren!
I've never been to any Legoland themepark but I heard a lot of it. I always wanted to bring my family there. We're planning to visit Legoland Singapore in December.. Thanks for sharing this wonderful review!
We absolutely adore LegoLand too!!! My son gets super excited every time we go and we always have such a fabulous time!
We've only been to the Legoland here in the UK but we all loved it. It is great for children. Our kids loved the driving school!
We went to Legoland in February 2018 and stayed at the Legoland beach retreat. I have to say it was the most fun vacation I've had with the kids. They had the best time!
This looks like a fantastic theme park to take little ones to. Who doesn't love Lego I am sure the adults would love it too. A perfect family day out!
Legoland looks like a ton of fund for the whole family. I know my niece and nephews would love to go there., they would have a ball.
This sounds like a ton of fun. I love that it is geared towards the younger kids. They tend to miss out on doing things at other parks. I know that my son would love to spend time here.
This looks like such a fun park that all kids would enjoy! Your family seems to have had an amazing time.
We cannot wait to get to California so we can take the kids to Legoland! Thanks for the tips and we have bookmarked this blog!
It sounds like you guys had a great time. I've never been to a LegoLand (no kids) but it seems like such a great laid-back park to visit. I love how kid-friendly everything is.
I can't wait to visit Legoland in Belgium, I've heard it's one of the best. Would love to go to the one on Calafornia!
Definitely adding this to the bucket list!
LegoLand is great depending on your child. We went last year with my 6 and 8 year old. My 6 year old loved it. The rides were perfect for her timid nature. My 8 year old daughter HATED it. Keep in mind, she is the height of a 6th grader and went on her first upside down coaster at age 6. The rides were waaaaay to tame for her. So if you have a kiddo that likes thrills, prep them in advance for a more low key experience.
We live in California, but have never visited Legoland. We will have to go as it sounds like a blast!
It's settled, I'm totally taking my son to Legoland. I love all the special touches they have to make it even better for kiddos. Finding food at a theme park for a kid can be such a pain so the lunches just for them are amazing. And my son would love all the music!
I have heard so many great things about LEGOLand, We have a mini version in a local shopping mall with a few rides and tons of the lego status, but I think this would be a adventure the whole family would love.
My six year old brother is obsessed with Legos. Sounds like a trip to LEGOland would be the perfect summer vacation for us!
I've been hearing more and more about legoland lately and now I really want to go because it sounds like such a fun family place! I love especially kid friendly food and the fact that the kids can get on all the rides. That's awesome!
I absolutely love that LEGOLAND is a water park and a theme park! So many theme parks force you to purchase an additional ticket to get into their water park and this can get so costly for families!
I would definitely consider you an authority on theme parks. I took my son to Legoland when he was about 6. It was the best mommy and me trip that we ever had. We also went to the San Diego Zoo. Thanks for the memories, it's been awhile since my son and I took that trip!
I've heard a lot about Legoland theme park, but never get the opportunity to visit the place. It's a great family place, and kids loves it. I would love to visit this place with my brother and parents. It's was on my bucket list from a very long time.
I love following all of your adventures! Legoland is definitely on my list. I love that both kiddies and adults can enjoy.
This place is like my childhood and a huge part of adulthood coming to life. It is like walking into the world that I used to build with those tiny blocks. So amazing. Wish I could go here.

Das Rathaus in Narva () ist eines der Wahrzeichen der drittgrößten Stadt Estlands. Es wurde zwischen 1668 und 1671 nach Plänen des Lübecker Baumeisters Georg Teuffel errichtet. Das barocke Rathaus mit starken klassizistischen Elementen ist eines der wenigen Gebäude Narvas, die nach der vollständigen Zerstörung der Stadt 1944 wiederaufgebaut wurden.

Lage
Vor dem Gebäude erstreckt sich der großzügig angelegte Rathausplatz (Raekoja plats). In unmittelbarer Nähe zum Rathaus standen die Börse (1695–1704), die Stadtapotheke sowie die Wohnhäuser der schwedischen Oberschicht. Alle Gebäude wurde 1944 zerstört.

Geschichte
Ab der zweiten Hälfte des 16. Jahrhunderts erlebte die Stadt Narva eine Blütezeit im Handel mit Russland. Der Ostsee-Hafen bot günstige Bedingungen für die reiche Kaufmannschaft und warf hohe Gewinne ab.

1629 fiel Estland im Vertrag von Altmark endgültig an die schwedische Krone. Zwei große Feuer in der ersten Hälfte des 17. Jahrhunderts zerstörten die Stadt. Anschließend konnte Narva aber weitgehend an seine vorherige Position im Russland-Handel anknüpfen. Das Verbot der schwedischen Behörden, in der Stadt Holzbauten zu errichten, prägte von nun an das Bild. Immer mehr barocke Steinhäuser entstanden. Vorbilder waren die holländischen und norddeutschen Städte.

In der zweiten Hälfte des 17. Jahrhunderts beauftragte der Rat der Stadt den Lübecker Architekten Georg Teuffel, der bereits im Baltikum tätig war, mit Plänen für ein neues, repräsentatives Rathaus. Es sollte das Zentrum der Stadt bilden.

1665 legte Teuffel dem Rat ein erstes Modell vor. Es wurde in die Hauptstadt Stockholm geschickt und dort mit einigen Änderungen angenommen. Die Umgestaltungen stammen vor allem von dem Stockholmer Architekten Nicodemus Tessin d. Ä. (1615–1681).

Der Baumeister Zacharias Hoffmann (d. Ä.) setzte den Entwurf in Narva um. Ihn unterstützten der Architekt J. Bischoff und der Steinmetz H. Oracker. Die Innenarbeiten setzten sich bis 1675 fort. Die Steintreppe von 1681 ist ein Werk des Meisters J. Hecht.

In den deutsch-sowjetischen Kämpfen des Zweiten Weltkriegs wurde die Stadt Narva 1944 dem Erdboden gleichgemacht. Auch das Rathaus wurde stark beschädigt. Nur das Fundament und die Steintreppe blieben erhalten.

Die Fassade und das Vestibül des Rathauses wurde in den 1960er Jahren wieder aufgebaut. Das Gebäude diente zunächst als Pionierpalast. Seit Wiedererlangung der estnischen Unabhängigkeit steht es leer. Gelegentlich finden in dem Haus Empfänge und Kulturveranstaltungen statt.

1995 wurden Dach und Turm erneuert. Die Rathausuhr an der Hauptfassade wurde 2003 restauriert.

Das Rathaus ist neben einigen wenigen Wohnhäusern in der Koidula-Straße das einzige erhaltene Gebäude des 17. Jahrhunderts der ehemaligen Barockstadt Narva.

Beschreibung
Das Rathaus ist eines der ersten Barock-Bauten Estlands. Das Gebäude ist dreigeschossig. Das Sockelgeschoss ist niedrig gehalten. Acht Wandpilaster betonen den repräsentativen Charakter des Hauptgeschosses. In der Mittelachse sieht man über einem prächtigen Portal das Stadtwappen von Narva mit zwei Fischen und zwei Schwertern, einen Giebel mit der Rathausuhr und den schlanken Holzturm. Auf der Turmspitze befindet sich eine Wetterfahne mit dem Bildnis eines Storchs. Das Tier gemahnt der Wachsamkeit der Ratsherren. Die Wetterfahne wurde 1671 von dem Malermeister D. Grabben vergoldet.

Zum Hauptportal auf der Mittelachse führt eine doppelläufige Freitreppe in Dreiecksform. Das Geländer war ursprünglich vergoldet. Das Eingangsportal von 1686 wird von drei allegorischen Figuren geschmückt, die Weisheit, Gerechtigkeit und Mäßigung symbolisieren. Das Portal wurde in Stockholm vermutlich von dem schwedischen Bildhauer Nicolaes Millich (tätig zwischen 1669 und 1685) oder seinem Schüler P. Schulz gefertigt.

Durch das Portal gelangt der Besucher in das Vestibül des Rathauses. Die Holzdecke war mit Akanthusornamenten verziert. Eine Treppe führte vom Vestibül ins darüber gelegene Stockwerk mit dem Ratssaal. Den Saal zierten barocke Deckengemälde mit den lateinischenInschriften Vivens moriens, Semper ubique, Victoria und Loco et tempere.

What? Please, he's had like 6 cavities and I've had 2 and I'm tons older. My oral hygiene seriously crushes his!
Fine, so maybe it's not so surprising that they trash talk, but I want to know if it carries over into all facets of life?
My son plays on a travel baseball team and one of his teammates is also a Mathlete. Yes, I said Mathlete, it's a word.
So, during a double header, where our team chanted really cool stuff at the mound in unison like, "A meeting, a meeting, there must be cheating." I turned to that friend and asked if there's trash talking on the Mathletes playing field – because that would be really funny.
Amy: Yeah, he totally trash talks. He says stuff like, I'm gonna count you out!!!
Me: Oh, and, when I'm done with you, you'll be 1/3rd the boy you are today….
Me: You'll be a freaking decimal when this is over.

A cameraman records as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and United States President Joe Biden participate in a virtual joint statement in Ottawa on February 23, 2021. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Adrian Wyld
White House confirms Canada asked for vaccine help, won't say if U.S. has agreed
Canada, a country without its own domestic manufacturing pipeline, has been lagging in its vaccination efforts
Canada has indeed asked the United States for help in procuring doses of COVID-19 vaccines, but the White House refused to say Wednesday whether it has agreed to the request.
Press secretary Jen Psaki was responding to reports about Canada and Mexico clamouring for surplus doses — including one from Bloomberg News that the two countries would top the list when the time comes.
"We have received requests from both Mexico and Canada and are considering those requests carefully," Psaki said.
"I don't have any update for you on whether they will be granted and a timeline for that."
Instead, she repeated the long-standing White House position that President Joe Biden first wants to ensure that every American who wants to can get vaccinated, and that it happen as soon as possible.
"We are still in the midst of fighting the war against the pandemic, right here," Psaki said, acknowledging the U.S. is currently leading the world in getting its residents vaccinated.
That's largely because of the country's virtually unrivalled capacity for developing and manufacturing vaccines, which has been almost exclusively focused on meeting domestic demand.
But the international responsibility that comes with that manufacturing capacity is not lost on Biden, who also understands the importance of getting people vaccinated around the world, Psaki said.
"The president wants to be, we all want to be, contributing members of the global community and getting the pandemic under control," she said.
"Any decision we make about requests … will ensure that we're able to still quickly vaccinate the American people, as that remains our top priority."
Canada, a country devoid of its own domestic manufacturing pipeline, has been lagging in its vaccination efforts, thanks in part to lingering production problems. Export controls in Europe, which have so far not affected Canada's shipments, are a potential threat.
The bottlenecks are only beginning to clear. Health Canada says more than 8.5 million doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine are scheduled to arrive in Canada over the next eight weeks.
Shipments of the two-dose Moderna vaccine have not been confirmed past the end of March, while a delivery date has yet to materialize for the other two vaccines — the Oxford-AstraZeneca shot and a single-dose option from Johnson & Johnson.
The Serum Institute of India is to ship another million doses of its version of the AstraZeneca vaccine next month, with an additional 500,000 in May, but it is not clear when those will arrive.
Canada is also counting on an additional 1.6 million doses of AstraZeneca being shipped from a production facility in South Korea before the end of May.
In the weeks since last month's virtual meeting between Biden and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, cabinet ministers in Ottawa have been liaising electronically with their American counterparts to reinforce what both sides have been billing as a new era in Canada-U.S. relations.
On Wednesday, it was François-Phillippe Champagne, Canada's minister of innovation, science and industry, who raised the subject of vaccines with U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo.
"When you're talking about strengthening North American supply chains, by implication you have to talk about medical supply chains — whether it's the manufacturing of essential medical supplies or vaccines," Champagne said in an interview.
"It is something that I raised in terms of making sure that we work together to ensure the health and safety of people on both sides of the border."
It's also likely to be a key variable when the time comes to begin the process of reopening the Canada-U.S. border, which has been closed for a full year to all but essential travel and trade.
Vaccination, Champagne said, is "the best way to ensure the health and safety of the people and eventually be in a position to reopen the economy."
"I think what you see is a renewed sense, or renewed spirit of co-operation and collaboration, to protect the health and safety of people on both sides, but also to foster jobs and growth on both sides of the border."

Q: error related to winrt::impl::com_ref when converting from c++/cx to c++/winrt In cppcx, I used to have this:
auto button = safe_cast<ContentControl ^>(obj);
if (auto text = dynamic_cast<Platform::String^>(button->Content)) {
    return text->Data();
}

When I try to do this to convert this code to cppwinrt:
auto button = obj.as<winrt::ContentControl>();
if (auto text = button.Content().try_as<winrt::hstring>()) {
    return text.c_str();
}

I get the following error:

Error (active)    E0312   no suitable user-defined conversion from "winrt::impl::com_refwinrt::hstring" to "wchar_t*" exists

I was hoping I would get a winrt::hstring as a result of the try_as and I can get the .c_str() from it, but I am getting a winrt::impl::com_refwinrt::hstring instead. What am I missing?

A: It looks like you want to unbox a scalar value behind an IInspectable interface (see Boxing and unboxing scalar values to IInspectable with C++/WinRT). For unboxing you'll want to use the unbox_value function template:
auto button = obj.as<winrt::ContentControl>();
if (auto text = unbox_value<winrt::hstring>(button.Content())) {
    return text.c_str();
}

Although it's questionable, whether you really want to return a pointer that points into the middle of some data owned elsewhere. It's probably best to just return an hstring by value. String handling in C++/WinRT has more information on the topic.

Good: Cool local park with some still-dangerous playground equipment(!) and large stage for kid's impromptu play; creek for stream hiking; cute water snake.
Bad: The park's pond was ruined in the floods last fall and now sits empty; dry conditions had the stream too low to have any real fun.
Bad: stoopid kid who decides to run through the fountains at full speed without looking where he is going, who completely flattens Lucy.
Worse: clueless parent of said kid who didn't bother to tell him to stop after he had flattened Lucy, leaving her crying [and bleeding - Joy] on the cement, nor indicate that he should apologize. I suppressed the urge to lay her out in a similar fashion when she finally got up to leave.
Good: Beautiful; great weather; great swimming; great beach (available shade, very clean, not crowded).
Bad: cashiers at local restaurant that accidentally charge their server number (23920, or $239.20) to your debit account after you leave the restaurant.
Good: Well, it was July 4th, and it was lunch with the family (sister and parents); brother in law, who is an excellent cook, manned the grill, producing excellent food.
Good: You can see them from our house, so we don't have to go anywhere; Maddie thinks fireworks are really cool, and it's a treat for her to stay up to see them; I remember feeling the same way as a kid.
Bad: Even when they're good, they're just kind of lame to me anymore. I mean, the fireworks downtown, the big Zambelli extravaganza was okay, but it's just a bunch of stuff blowing up.
Worse: No Fourth of July toad, who had shown up in our neighborhood only on the fourth, for the last two years. Oh well. You know what they say: "Two years of a toad is life; three years is a sign from God."

Postcards of Davenport often appear on auction websites, but the majority are views of Bramhall Lane, often showing little more than the tree-lined road with a few pedestrians. Occasionally, however, we come across a card commissioned by a family as a portrait of their own house. The one opposite, which we have digitally enhanced from its original faded appearance, has helpfully pencilled on the back by a previous owner, 'Oberhofen, Davenport Crescent'.
Street directories from 1907 (above) and 1910 (below). Oberhofen does not appear in the 1907 list; it does in 1910, mistakenly shown on the wrong side of the road. Such directories cannot be relied upon as a wholly accurate record, but they are a useful guide.
Images from the digitised Heritage Directories provided by Stockport Library.
The heads of the household only listed. House numbers are in the old scheme. Full records on ancestry.co.uk are images 488 to 534 (even numbers) Stockport First registration District, Enumeration District 36.
1934 Map. The grounds of 'Oberhofen' had by then been enlarged by the addition of the boot-shaped area of land at the rear, later sold for the building of a house, accessed from Broomfield Crescent in the bottom right corner of the extract.
A family photo album dating back more than a century has revealed a forgotten slice of the history of Brinnington.
In 1902 Brinnington was an exclusive area inhabited by rich industrialists, who enjoyed panoramic views of Stockport from vast countryside houses.
Helen Nicolayson's grandfather John Goode Johnson (above) owned Brinnington House, a grand building situated on the current site of St Paul's school. The house boasted servants' quarters, a greenhouse, stables, wine cellar and a sumptuous dining hall where the extended family feasted.
Yet little was known about this era of opulence in Brinnington until Helen, 76, showed her family's photographs to community heritage officer Caroline Mean. For the grand building was demolished before the Second World War to make way for Brinnington housing estate.
Helen, who now lives in Davenport, said: "My grandfather had seven sons with his first wife and then six daughters by his second wife, and they all lived in the house together. At that time they had a dining table there which could seat 30 people. Christmas must have been quite an affair. I remember visiting the house as a young child with my father shortly before it was demolished, but apart from that I still know little about it. My father Lewis Brady Johnson was a keen amateur photographer and I have kept all of the photos from this time."
The Johnson family earned their wealth by managing the Henry Marsland Bleach Works, now the site of Sainsburys in the town centre.
How much can we discover about the history of this house without leaving our desk? Quite a lot, since the 1911 Census returns have been published, and many houses, including this one, were built after the previous Census records of 1901. The returns in 1911 were completed by the residents themselves for the first time, and we reproduce above the part of Oberhofen's sheet listing the people who 'passed the night of April 2nd, 1911 in this dwelling ... or arrived on the Morning of April 3rd ... not enumerated elsewhere.' They were the head of the household Henry Thomas Seymour Clayton, aged 41, Solicitor, born in Ashton-under-Lyne, his wife Gertrude Mona Clayton, 36, born in Droylsden, their daughter Dorothy Muriel Clayton, born in Levenshulme, aged 14, at school, and their General Servant (domestic) Annie Brightman, 23, born in Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire. The couple have been married 16 years, and have had just one child, who is still alive. (The 1911 Census was the first to attempt to establish the rate of infant mortality.) It looks likely that young Dorothy Muriel is the one posing with her dog in the postcard picture. She was born at an earlier family home, which the 1901 Census reveals to have been 7 Cringle Road, Levenshulme.
Fortunately we can tell you more about Henry Clayton, and even see what he looked like, as he was featured on Page 305 of the book Lancashire at the Opening of the Twentieth Century: Contemporary Biographies published in 1903 which has been digitised by the Spinning the Web project. The entry, reproduced above, tells us that he was the son of the late John Clayton, Solicitor, and was born in 12 September 1869. Educated at Stamford Academy, Ashton-under-Lyne and the Grammar School, Manchester, he was 'admitted solicitor', with honours, in November 1893. His wife, Gertrude Mona, was the daughter of William Reynolds, of Fairfield, Manchester.
The Freehold Company, also known as the Freeholders Company, was formed to purchase the remaining parts of the estate of the Davenports of Bramall Hall, including the Hall itself, after John William Handley Davenport decided to sell and move away in 1877. The Company laid out The Crescent and Egerton Road, and began to sell plots in the hope of creating an exclusive private estate on the lines of nearby Davenport Park on the other side of the railway, which had been sold by the Davenport Family in the 1860s. However, take-up seems to have been very slow.
Trulock-Hankin and Lingard were lawyers acting as agents, and purchaser John Hooley was a nurseryman; he bought much of the east side of The Crescent, including the land on which Oberhofen was later built. He appears as the first entry for The Crescent in a 1902 Street Directory, but his home was at 59 Edgeley Road; it would seem he initially used the land to grow plants for his business. Surely though, he would have had thoughts of property development.
The map above, published in 1898, shows empty plots, including the future site of Oberhofen.
A perpetual yearly rent charge of £14 created by a Conveyance dated 26 June 1903 made between (1) John Hooley and (2) Henry Thomas Seymour Clayton.
Thus Clayton obtained the land, giving Hooley an income of £14 per year, and would have employed an architect and builder to create the house, which is in the style of the time but unique in its individual design. Why is the house called 'Oberhofen'? Our guess is that it was named after a favourite holiday destination; there are several resorts called Oberhofen in the German-speaking world, including a German one on Lake Constance and a Swiss one on Lake Thun.
Henry Clayton died on 9 April 1930, by which time they were living at 'Coombe Lodge', Bramhall Lane South, Bramhall; his widow Gertrude died, aged 80, in 1965. As for their daughter Dorothy Muriel Clayton, online records are not sufficiently definite.
By 1914 Oberhofen (known simply as 37 The Crescent) had become the home of Lewis Brady Johnson, an elder brother of Frank Stafford Johnson who lived nearby at 'The Paddocks' (see separate article on The Alders. He managed a calico bleaching works for his father John Goode Johnson of Brinnington Hall. Born in 1875, Lewis was still living with his father at Brinnington Hall in 1911, but in 1913 it seems he broke with social convention by marrying Teresa Boyd, a 21-year-old housemaid at Brinnington Hall, which may would explain the move to Davenport. We have a picture of Mr Johnson, thanks to members of the Ancestry website.
They lived in No.37 for many years, and Teresa remained there after his death in 1947, until she died in 1962. As a result of a general renumbering, to accommodate the new houses which had replaced 'The Paddocks' around 1950, No. 37 became No. 81.
The next occupants were Nicolay Nicolaysen and his wife Helen Teresa Nicolaysen (the daughter of Lewis Brady Johnson) whom he had married in 1949. Mr Nicolaysen was an engineer: he became Chief Design Engineer of the Handling and Process Plant Division of the famous Stockport firm of Simon-Carves Ltd.
He must have been interested in model engineering, too, as the extended grounds as the rear of the house became in 1951 the site of the running track of the Stockport and District Society of Model Engineers, who have kindly prepared for us the above plan showing the location of the track, which operated there until 1967. Access was from Broomfield Crescent.
This picture, reproduced by permission of the Society, shows the track in action in its early days. The Society still flourishes on its current track at South Park, Cheadle Hulme: see the Society website for full information and more historic pictures.
Mr Nicolaysen died in 1977; his widow Helen sold the land at the rear in 1979, which is now the site of No.16 Broomfield Crescent; she sold Oberhofen in 1987 and moved to a new bungalow (81A) which was fitted into the grounds to the south of Oberhofen.
Helen Teresa Nicolaysen died in 2011 aged 84, but not before she had allowed Stockport Library to take copies of all the pictures in the family album, many of them taken by her father Lewis who was a keen photographer.
In 2015, Oberhofen still stands, as Google Street View confirms (above) although it no longer carries a name. As befits the Conservation Area, externally the house is little changed from a century ago, although the gateposts have gone and the drive has been relocated to meet the demands of modern car ownership.

For most of us, the days of walking into a coffee shop and just ordering "a latte" are long gone. With every order comes a series of follow-up questions from our beloved baristas: Hot or iced? Would you like any flavor? What kind of sweetener? And of course…what kind of milk would you like that made with?
Most of know our basic cow's milk options: whole/full-fat milk, low-fat (usually 2%) milk, and skim/non-fat milk.
The queen of the dairy-free milks is soy. It's commonly the only dairy-alternative, although almond milk is starting to become a staple most independently-owned coffee shops.
A milk that I've been seeing more and more lately at shops around Los Angeles is hemp milk. When I stopped by one of my favorite L.A. coffee shops, Javista Organic Coffee Bar on Sunset Boulevard, yesterday morning, I decided to give it a try.


Whether someone is fasting for religious purposes, or to help flush toxins out of the body, it is important to know the right way to do it and to remain healthy. Too many people go into a fast without really understanding what they need to do in order to feel good and healthy physically. In this post, we will look at some of the elements that will help you keep your fast nice and safe.

Here's the secret to eating more veggies every day, according to a nutritionist

Together with Athleta, we're compiling actionable wellness advice you need from the experts—and Well+Good is bringing it to life all year long at events in NYC. Here, Mia Rigden, RD shares her four-week guide to upping your veggie intake and reaping all the benefits of a plant-forward life.
Some days, you crush a giant salad and feel like the epitome of health. Other days, you look back at what you've eaten and think, "Wine counts as a serving of fruit, right?"
Been there. If you're someone who struggles to incorporate plants into your diet, Mia Rigden, RD, totally gets it—which is why she helped us create this four-week plan for increasing your veggie intake.
"The biggest roadblock that prevents people from eating more vegetables is usually just getting started," she says. "If you're not someone who regularly consumes a lot of vegetables, it can feel daunting, unappetizing, expensive or out of reach. [So] think of it as a fun challenge, not as a chore."
According to Rigden, the key to getting in the recommended seven servings of fruits and veggies in a day is approaching your diet with a plant-forward mentality. "Plant-forward doesn't mean being vegetarian or vegan," she explains. "It just means eating an abundance and diversity of fruits and vegetables."
Keep reading for her top tips for adding more veggies into your plant-forward life, organized into a four-week challenge.

1. Go to the farmer's market and see what's growing
To familiarize yourself with new fruits and vegetables and learn what's in season near you (which will ensure the produce is freshest and less expensive), look up your closest farmer's market and browse around. "Don't be afraid to be inquisitive about vegetables you've never seen before, and ask your farmer how to prepare them," Rigden advises.
If you don't have a farmer's market near you, opt for a grocery store. If the store still doesn't have an inspiring variety, Rigden invites you to get creative. "Grow fresh herbs in your windowsill or buy frozen vegetable medleys," she recommends.

2. Keep a log of your vegetable intake for the week
"The best way to make a change is to become aware of your current habits," Rigden says. Kick off week two by logging your current veggie intake so you can compare it to coming weeks and celebrate any improvement.
It's not about counting calories (you can just make a note in your phone and write down the name of the fruit or vegetable and the serving size), but rather about keeping yourself accountable to this new plant-forward lifestyle. "Be open-minded," Rigden says. "The problem with 'diets' is that they're often way too restrictive, which makes them hard to follow long-term."

3. Add veggies into smoothies
Tapping into the nutrient-rich profile of vegetables doesn't mean eating plates of bland food. "Food should be delicious, exciting, and full of nutrients that support your body and the lifestyle you want to lead," Rigden says.
Smoothies are a quick and easy way to get your veggies in on the go. Throw a handful of greens into the blender with tropical fruits and mint for a mojito-style blend, or combine steamed-then-frozen cauliflower or zucchini with banana, cacao, and almond milk for a healthier chocolate milkshake (and you won't even taste the vegetables, promise).
4. Stock your fridge with raw vegetables for snacks
You can't snack on what you don't have on hand, so make sure you have a fridge full of easy-to-grab fruit and veggie options for when hunger strikes. Challenge yourself to only snack on plants for a week and note of how it makes you feel.
Plants are naturally energizing, says Rigden, which is what it's all about. "When you focus on enjoying your meals and feeling good, incorporating more nutrient-dense foods into your daily routine should feel fun and satisfying."

Discusses the ongoing suffering of victims of the Bhopal disaster, and Union Carbide's claim that their legal responsibility was met with their settlement with the Indian government in 1989. According to Amnesty International, however, neither Union Carbide or Dow Chemical (who took over Union Carbide) have taken responsibility to clean up the site or stop subsequent pollution from the plant which was abandoned in December 1984.
Article detailing the continuing health and environmental impact of the disaster, as tons of waste still sits in a warehouse of the Union Carbide pesticide factory in Bhopal, infecting the soil and the water of the community still living in the area.
Shrivastava, P. 1987. Bhopal: Anatomy of a crisis. Cambridge, MA: Ballinger.
This book gives an account of the Bhopal disaster based on over 200 interviews and discusses the lessons to be learned from the lingering nature of this crisis. The author discusses how industrial crises have identifiable causes – human, organizational, and technical – and the need for new business and social policies designed to prevent similar crises in the future.
Union Carbide Corporation. Bhopal Gas Tragedy Information.
A description of the industrial disaster by Union Carbide Corporation, the company responsible for the disaster, as well as a history of their response to the disaster. Includes links to the Jackson Browning Report, the court document detailing the scientific and legal investigations into the cause of the gas release as well as a link to Union Carbide's Responsible Care program, which is meant to help prevent such an event in the future by improving safety standards, community awareness, and emergency preparedness.
This article details the events preceding and following the accidental release of methylisocyante at Union Carbide's Bhopal plant and examines three types of errors that occurred: human, technological, and system.
This article, which references the article above by Bowonder, looks at the Bhopal chemical disaster from multiple viewpoints as a way to analyse the risks that existed before the event. The authors look at the organizational and personal perspectives to show their role in illuminating the case and evoking insights.
Written by an employee of Union Carbide India at the Bhopal plant, the author explores the merciless cost-cutting severely affecting materials of construction, maintenance, training, manpower and morale that resulted in the disaster. Significant differences between the West Virginia, USA plant and the Bhopal, India plant show the callous disregard of the corporation for the people of the developing countries.

International Confederation of Free Trade Unions/International Federation of Chemical, Energy, and General Workers Unions.
A report based on an onsite study done by a twelve member fact-finding committee that found that while some wrong decisions were made by local plant managers, a large share of responsibility belongs to Union Carbide Corp. The report also found that many of the factors that caused or contributed to the disaster are common to many chemical manufacturers and industrial processes around the world, and are problems that can be controlled with proper safety procedures in place.
Jasanoff, S. (ED.). (1994) Learning From Disaster: Risk Management After Bhopal. Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press.
This is a collection of twelve papers that not only discuss the Bhopal disaster as a case study, but also seeks to address wider questions about the transfer and control of hazardous technologies and the capacity of human societies to learn from failure.
Lepkowski, W. (1994). Ten years later: Bhopal. Chemical & Engineering News (December 19): 8-18.
Details the events of the disaster, the confusing and often contradictory accounts of the facts of the event, and the ongoing suffering of the victims exposed to the gas. The article also discussed the "post-Bhopal" era of evolving openness and accountability in safety maters in the chemical industry, and how there is much further to go in this regard.
Over the past 15 years, society has come to expect that engineers, as practitioners and managers, be aware of those activities over which they have control, that could adversely affect the public's well-being. Specifically, due to incidents such as Love Canal, Bhopal, and Chernobyl, the public now recognizes that technology which is within the control of others can, if mishandled, jeopardize the health and well-being of thousands of innocent people. This paper suggests that schools of engineering have a responsibility to prepare engineers to meet these expectations and it recommends an approach to meet this challenge.
Reisch, M. 2004. Twenty Years After Bhopal. Chemical and Engineering News 82 (no.23, June 7): 19-23.
The author discusses the reactions of U.S. chemical industry leaders to the Bhopal disaster in developing the Responsible Care program, and the critics who say they have not done enough.
The lessons implicit in the industrial accident in Bhopal, India in 1984 are discussed. Union Carbide's approach to risk planning and management are examined in the context of the disaster. The factors that set the stage for the accident are also identified.
The world's worst industrial disaster in Bhopal, India, happened because of inadequate maintenance by Union Carbide and poor monitoring by the Indian authorities. Malfunctioning safety measures, inappropriate location of the plant, and lack of information about the identity and toxicity of the gas worsened the effects of the accident on people and livestock. In this article, the authors present what happened and why and what lessons can be learned at this terrible cost.
The author discusses how the disaster at Bhopal is a dramatic reminder of how the transfer of chemical technology must be accompanied by transfer of the corresponding infratechnology, toxicology. Only then can the process of technology transfer be managed with fewer risks, fewer costs, and fewer tragic surprises.
This article looks at the industrial disasters of Bhopal and Mexico City in late 1984, from a production manager's point of view. What errors in production management and safety were made? What can be done to lessen the likelihood of such disasters? What "lessons" should be learned, or reiterated?
Amnesty International. (2004). Clouds of Injustice: Bhopal Disaster 20 years on.
Written on the 20th anniversary of the disaster, this report gives a detailed account of the human rights impact of the leak and the contamination, corporate accountability for the leak, and the responsibility of the Indian state to hold the Union Carbide Corporation accountable and to ensure victims receive compensation and rehabilitation. The report aims to expose the failure of Union Carbide Corporation/Dow and the Indian government to comply with their respective obligations to prevent the gas leak and address its consequences, as well as to adequately address their human rights responsibilities.
This article gives an excellent summary of the worst industrial accident in history, Union Carbide's attempt to avoid legal responsibility and their final settlement with the Indian government. The authors stress the need for enforceable international standards for environmental safety, preventative strategies to avoid similar accidents, and industrial disaster preparedness.
Chiles, J. R. (2002). Inviting Disaster: Lessons from the Edge of Technology. Harper Business: New York.
Covering a number of disasters including Bhopal, the author looks at how even the most "smart" technological systems are prone to failure and how these catastrophes occur, their outcomes, and potential ways of avoiding these failures in the future.
Dhillon, K. (2002). Bhopal's Deadliest Night--A Case Study. Australian Journal of Professional and Applied Ethics, 4(1), 1-29.
After exploring the catastrophic effects of the Bhopal disaster, the author discusses how the adoption of a precautionary approach to industrialization in developing communities could have prevented or at least minimized the fatalities, arising from the breakdown of the Carbide facility,. Globalization needs to be viewed in totality as a complex and multidimensional concept and not a monolithic process. Any hasty judgments about globalization 'per se', therefore, can be grossly irrelevant. It is a system of interacting forces--economic, political, cultural, et al.--intersecting with the unique features of the local milieu. In some cases, of which Bhopal is a spectacularly tragic example, the consequences of such interactions can be catastrophic.
Fortun, K. (1998). THE BHOPAL DISASTER: Advocacy and Expertise. Science as Culture, 7(2), 193.
This article discusses the Bhopal Group for Information and Action (BGIA), a group of Indian activists working to support victims of the Bhopal disaster in India.

The disastrous gas leak at a Union Carbide plant in Bhopal, India, in December 1984 displayed the law's tragic inability to cope with the consequences of technological globalization. This essay describes the protracted efforts of the gas victims to obtain relief from courts in India and the United States and the reasons why the settlement of their legal claims did not satisfy their demands for justice.
Jayaraman, N. (2009). Wrong Questions. Wrong Answers. Global Social Policy, 9(3), 318-321.
The article discusses the lessons which could have been learned after the Union Carbide Corp. factory disaster in Bhopal, India.

A report for the Citizens Commission on Bhopal, this was the first book-length account of the Bhopal tragedy and its implications for American workers and communities exposed to similar risks. It addresses the key question of who was responsible for this catastrophic accident and probes the health and environmental, impact of the disaster.
Ravi Rajan, S. (2002). Disaster, Development and Governance: Reflections on the 'Lessons' of Bhopal. Environmental Values, 11(3), 369-394.
The paper firstly uses the case study of the Bhopal gas disaster to understand why many scholars and activists seek alternatives to 'big' development. Secondly, it critically examines the claims that have been made in this regard in the literature in political ecology, science and technology studies and environmental governance, and in doing so, articulates a framework of questions for the next generation of research and advocacy.
Shrivastava, P. (1996). Long-term recovery from the Bhopal Crisis. In J. Mitchell, Ed., The long road to recovery: Community responses to industrial disaster. United Nations University Press.
This chapter begins with a brief description of the Bhopal crisis and then discusses causes of the crisis in terms of antecedent conditions and accident-related failures. The author then describes a multiple perspectives framework for understanding crisis recovery issues that looks at the perspectives of the primary stake-holders - the community and its victims, Union Carbide Corporation, and the Government of India. The final section includes speculations about long-term recovery from crisis and examines policy implications.

The paper begins with the results surrounding the accident, and then discusses an international situation audit examining internal strengths and weakness, and external opportunities and threats faced by Union Carbide. The author also discusses the second tragedy of Bhopal, the tragic failure of the international legal system to adequately and timely compensate the victims of the accident.
Waldman, Amy. (2002) Bhopal Seethes, Pained and Poor 18 Years Later. New York Times, September 21, 2002.
This newspaper article discusses how eighteen years after the accident, the CEO of Union Carbide has still not been brought up on charges and victims have received little or no compensation for the injuries suffered from the disaster.

Hong Kong has hired US-headquartered engineering firm Black & Veatch to help it create space inside a mountain to store water currently held in two reservoirs, freeing up four hectares of precious land.
The move comes as Hong Kong, which is experiencing a severe housing shortage, investigates "rock cavern development" more generally as a way of easing pressure on its squeezed surface area.
Black & Veatch said yesterday it had been appointed to investigate, design and supervise the construction of the caverns, which would replace the Diamond Hill fresh water and salt water reservoirs.
The site under consideration for the caverns is slopes near the Lion Rock mountain (pictured) north of the Chuk Yuen housing estate in Kowloon, according to a government briefing paper released in March 2018.
It said an investigation would study the impact of blasting in the area, plus other environmental considerations, and added that the two reservoirs now take up four hectares.
Black & Veatch has built rock caverns before in Hong Kong. It won a Chamber of Commerce award in 2010 for freeing land for the University of Hong Kong by putting the Western Salt Water Service Reservoirs in a hillside.
Black & Veatch will be involved in designing tunnels, caverns and associated works for the new cavern reservoirs.

SFP + can be easily understood as an upgraded version of GBIC. The SFP module (which is half the size of the GBIC module and can be configured with more than twice the number of ports on the same panel. Since the SFP module is basically the same as the GBIC function, SFP+ it is also known by some switch manufacturers as miniaturized GBIC -GBIC.) The SFP module compresses the size and power consumption by placing CDR and electro-dispersion compensation outside the module for optical communication applications in telecommunications and data communications.SFP connection network equipment such as switches, routers and other devices Motherboards and fiber or UTP cables. SFP + is an industry specification supported by some fiber optic device providers.

It appears that everything in the page will only work together if I reinitialize the whole page using $(document).foundation(), instead of $(element).foundation(). When I do that there are now multiple back buttons in the topbar, where there should only be one. The amount of new back buttons correlate directly with the amount of times $(document).foundation(); has been called.
I've spent about 3 hours trying to figure this out and I did google, and check SO.
