I was born in Tallinn and lived there until 2011, when I moved to Birmingham. Since then I have been travelling back and forth and on average have stayed there for a week. As there are constantly new thing popping up what to do and to see, then I will try to keep this guide updated as I go along and also consider suggestions and personal recommendations. Please note, that this is not an official travel guide, rather my personal suggestions for people who are curious and want to travel to Tallinn.
Tallinn is the capital of Estonia, located on the North coast of the country. Estonia itself is a tiny country located just south of Finland and is one of the three Baltic Countries. South from Estonia is Latvia and then Lithuania. On the East, Estonia is bordering with Russia. Estonian population is 1.3 million. For a comparison, the population of Birmingham is 819,000. According to Wikipedia, the area of Estonia is 45,227 km2 or 17,462 sq mi, which is about twice the size of Wales. Tallinn is the largest city with the population of 395,000 people.
We speak Estonian, which doesn’t sound anything like Russian, because the language has totally different roots (Fenno-Ugri) and is similar to the Finnish language instead. Due to the fact that no one else, besides Estonians, speak Estonian, we have to know other languages, therefore the majority of people know at least English and/or Russian. So not to worry, in Tallinn City Centre, you can easily communicate with locals in English.
Plugs – make sure you are prepared with the European plug as the ones we use in the UK will not fit in anywhere. You can purchase those easily in any airport.
Currency – Euros. Majority of shops in Tallinn accept card payments, regardless, I would advise having a bit of change with you. However, keep an eye on the exchange rate.
Weather – it is as moody as in Birmingham, therefore keep an eye on the link here.
I used to fly via Ryanair from London. Although it is a direct flight, I find it quite challenging to get to London airports in the first place as the flights are early in the morning which means that I have to go by a coach. However, National Express coaches are direct ones to all London airports. My preferred flight is with Lufthansa from Birmingham Airport with the change either in Frankfurt or Amsterdam. Check with Skyscanner to find a suitable flight for you.
Tallinn Airport is a small, but very lovely (not biased here at all…). The airport is located in the city itself, therefore it doesn’t take a long time to reach the city centre. Public transport is quite convenient with tram and buses departing from the airport. The timetable for tram no 4 is here. The timetable for bus no 2 is here. ‘Airport’ in Estonian is Lennujaam and that is the name of the stop. You can purchase the ticket from the driver and a single ticket is 2 EUR.
If you want to take a taxi from the airport, then I would not advise you to take the yellow cabs outside the airport doors as they are quite expensive. You can always call UBER via app or my favourite is Bongo Taxi(Yes, I know how it sounds, but they are very affordable) on +372 6615157. Just let them know where you want the taxi and if you are paying in cash or by card. Once the taxi is there, then you say where you want to go.
This is where I am a bit struggling as I have never actually stayed in paid accommodation in Tallinn. My mum would not be happy if I would not stay with her, plus I get all the mummy pampering, so frankly why would I stay somewhere else. However, as I do organise art events and host artists, then I would advise looking for Air Bnb opportunities, or hotels.com has good options as well. If you book well in advance, then you can get a room for even 45 EUR/night. Good areas to look for are Old Town (fairly expensive), Kalamaja (hipster area) or Pelgulinn.
To do and see
This section will be very much art and culture related for obvious reasons, but as this is all work in progress, I will be updating it as I go along.
This year, 2018, Estonia celebrates its centenary since the first independence in 1918, before the Soviet Union. After the collapse of Soviet Union, Estonia regained its independence in 1991 and has been independently growing and developing since then. You will see a lot of Eesti 100 wording around the city. This to celebrate that event and of course, there are a lot of cultural activities taking place in Tallinn around that topic.
If the weather is great, then I would advise you to have a bit of a walk around in the Old Town to see the medieval buildings from the 14th Century. Tallinn is one of the only cities in Europe which still have those buildings left, so definitely worth for a walk. Plus there are a lot of lovely coffee shops around the Town Hall Square.
Galleries and museums:
Contemporary Art Museum of Estonia (EKKM), city centre. EKKM hosts a variety of contemporary and critically acclaimed shows during the year (it is closed during winter months, though). Today, EKKM hosts the main exhibition of the 17th Tallinn Print Triennial ‘Cloudbusters: Intensity vs. Intention’, curated by Margit Säde. As part of the Foundation Tallinn Print Triennial, I am also one of the organisers of the event. Graphic designers Laura Pappa and Elisabeth Klement.
Haus Gallery, Old Town
Temnikova & Kasela Gallery, city centre
Metropol Gallery in Kalamaja is the quirkiest locations of the selection. The gallery is located in an old wooden building which is an artist community. Make sure to look up the opening times and see what is on, but once you are there, you enter the smallest art gallery in the city – 6 m2. Enjoying art in such a small environment is quite an experience, but definitely worth it.
Kumu Art Museum in Kadriorg is the headquarters of the Art Museum of Estonia and is the largest exhibition venue in Estonia. It hosts a permanent exhibition about Estonian historic art as well as temporary exhibitions. For obvious reasons, I will promote the exhibition of the history of Tallinn Print Triennials ‘Puzzling Over the Labyrinth. 50 Years of the Tallinn Print Triennial’, curated by Elnara Taidre and Eha Komissarov and organised by the Foundation Tallinn Print Triennial.
Vaal Gallery, Ülemiste district
Tallinn as a port city has quite a few markets. There are a lot of pure tourist orientated locations, but I would like to point out two of them. One is Balti Jaama Market (Balti Jaama turg), which is located next to the train station (Balti Jaam, meaning Balti station). It used to be an authentic mainly Russian speaking market, but it went through a massive redevelopment and now it is made to a multifunctional, multilevel centre. Still worth for a visit though.
The second on is Central Market (Keskturg) which is closer to the Airport and has maintained its authentic historic vibe.
Telliskivi Creative City (Telliskivi Loomelinnak)
Tallinn Creative Hub (Kultuurikatel)
Viru Centre (Viru Keskus)
Solaris Centre (Solaris Keskus)
To eat and drink
F-Hoone – located in one of the creative hub mentioned, Telliskivi Creative City. F-hoone was one of the first food places which appear there about 8 years ago and has still been going strong.
Korsaar – located in the Old Town, this is quite a quirky place. If you are a fan of Pirates of the Carribean, then this is your place.
St Vitus – a this bar is located just around the corner from Telliskivi Creative City and offers a great selection of beers.
Boheem – also, close by from St Vitus and Telliskivi Creative City as well as almost opposite from the Balti Market. Boheem offers a great selection of pancakes.
As mentioned before, this is work in progress list and I will be developing as I go along. Suggestions are very welcome, but my main aim is to have it as a subjective guide to the curious ones who want to visit Tallinn and get a great experience.


Automatic control units : how to make the right choice ?
Like for compression frames, the offer on the market is quite wide, and buyer needs to have a wide knowledge of the profession, or a high degree of perspicacity to manage to make the right choice. How can one obtain the best compromise between price, performance, and ergonomics ?
How to choose ones control units ?
In the control units area, each manufacturer usually offers a choice betwenn 3 to 4 different control units in order to supply the compression or flexural frames. Historically, the first compression or flexural testing machines were equipped with an electrohydraulic group control units (piston type pump or injection pump). The load uptake speed was controlled by the operator thanks to a valve with manual load uptake, and one or two needle gauges equipped with a disc analogical cadencemeter. With the electronic advent, these manometers with “Bourdon” tube have gradually been replaced by digital displays, increasing substantially precision and life expectancy.
The load uptake speed control, is now automatic, and this is one of the major headway in the testing machines area. Indeed, the loading uptake speed has a very sensible influence on results. Clearly, the operator’s influence on the “driving” of a machined equipped with a hydraulic group with manual control, is such that a testing machine, even equipped with the best measurement devices (jack, pressure sensor, and good quality display), would see its precision distorted from 5 to 20 % simply by the fact that the operator had not followed the speed according to the standards.
Hence, hydraulic groups controlled with manual load uptake are now only used on site. For information, during the last 15 years, 3R has equipped more than 1.500 laboratories with automatic control unites and less than 10 « manual » ones.
3R proposes you to choose from 4 automatic control units :
1 – Quantris control units :
It is the basic automatic control unit, very reliable and highly performant. It is aimed to concrete industrialists for whom measure reliability and durability in time are important criteria.
2 – Techtris control units :
With the same technical qualities of the Quantris, the automatic Techtris control unit offers the possiblity to memorize testing parameters of 100 different products. It is then the ideal tool for laboratories which have a many products to test : any type of blocks, kerbs, pavement blocks, pipes, beams, slabs, infillor blocks, and so on. This unit control will allow the operator to gain a lot of time in executing the tests and to improve work quality by avoiding parametrizing errors between each product.
3 – Quantech control units :
This automatic control unit is equipped with the latest industrial PC. Beneficiating from the same hydraulic devices that made the reliability fame of the Quantris and Techtris, the Quantech offers to the user the computer advantages : more complexe tests cycles, backup of all the data, sophisticated summaries ediiting, curbs drawings, statistics and so on.
4 – Quantium control units :
It is the most high performance and complete automatic control unit of the range. Equipped with the same industrial PC than the Quantech, the Quantium pushes back the limits of what is possible in technology and flexibility. Able to drive up to 8 different frames, to read up to 32 sensors (and 16 simultaneously), equipped with a servo-valve group, it is the ideal tool for Research Centres and higher Education Institutions.
In brief, 3R proposes an homogeneous product range, fitted to the needs of each user from the exacting industrial buyer to the researcher concerned about performance.


YouTube stars Cole and Savannah LaBrant released their daughter Everleigh’s first song earlier this month, which sparked backlash from social media users almost overnight.
Cole, 27, and Savannah, 30, premiered their 10-year-old’s music debut — a pop track called “Like Taylor Swift” — on September 4. Immediately, listeners criticized the song via TikTok for its overuse of autotune and only listing Taylor Swift’s hits.
“Mу hair іs blоwing through thе wind / Taylor Swift on the radio all weekend,” Everleigh, who performs under the moniker “Everleigh Rose,” crooned in one verse. “Sweet tea, sweet sixteen, on my trampoline / All summer long I play my favorite song. … Every single day all I wanna do is this / and do it like Taylor Swift.”
In the first chorus, Everleigh sang that she wanted to “do it like” several of Swift’s songs, including “Love Story,” “Bad Blood,” “Dear John,” “Look What You Made Me Do” and “You Belong With Me.”
JoJo Siwa, who appeared in several of the LaBrants’ past YouTube videos, clapped back in Everleigh’s defense.
“Saying all of this with love. As the now 20-year-old who was once the 10-year-old growing up in front of the Internet, I wanna say to anyone that’s been saying negative things about this song or Everleigh herself: Lose your ego and grow up,” Siwa, who grew up on Dance Moms before becoming a pop star, wrote via TikTok. “First, this song is adorable (and insanely catchy). And second, bullying isn’t cool, it’s not funny and it’s not trendy ever … especially when it’s directed at a 10-year-old and her first song by people much older than her. Some even adults.”
Siwa further slammed critics, noting they “should be embarrassed” for publicly bashing the video.
“I also, without a doubt, can say that Everleigh is one of the kindest and hardest working kids I’ve ever had [the] joy of getting to be around and she absolutely deserves all the love and success she has.”
In her TikTok video, Siwa rocked out to “Like Taylor Swift” in her car and couldn’t help but sing along. “To anyone who has said anything negative about this song … you need to calm down,” the “Kid in a Candy Store” singer wrote in a caption.
Neither Everleigh nor her family have addressed the musical backlash.
Cole and Savannah — who wed in 2017 — share four children: Everleigh, Posie, 4, Zealand, 3, and Sunday, 14 months. (Savannah welcomed Everleigh with a past partner; Cole is her stepfather.)

Soda suppliers are raising prices more than usual this year. Operators in many parts of the country are finding they are unable to absorb the higher prices, but are also unable to raise their own prices enough to cover the increases. Many are contemplating new cold drink strategies.
Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. (CCE), the nation's largest bottler, is seeking price increases this year due to what officials call unprecedented increases in raw goods and aluminum costs. The increases vary by geography and have caused many vending operators to seek alternative products to reduce exposure to the higher prices.
CCE's case price increases have been as high as 30 percent on 20-ounce bottles in some markets. In many instances, vending operators must raise prices to $1.25, which is a 25 percent increase.
The prices for cans has also increased more than normal this year, and in some markets, suppliers are seeking a bigger percentage increase for cans than bottles. In most markets, however, bottlers are seeking bigger percentage increases for bottles.
By the time this article goes to press, operators who get Coke rebates from the Better Vendors Association buying cooperative will no longer receive rebates under an agreement signed between BVA and CCE in January. BVA was the only buying cooperative that had a program with CCE.
Many operators worry that Coke's competitors will match the price increase, although this has not happened in most markets as of this report. In select markets, Coke competitors have sought higher price increases than Coke.
"The numbers are just staggering," said Len Salzman, owner of S & S Vending Inc., Melbourne, Fla. "This is the biggest increase in the history of vending in Florida." He recently began buying Coke cans for $5.25 a case at a warehouse club. His bottler wants $7.10 a case.
Unfortunately, the clubs don't sell 20-ounce bottles, and this is where the market is moving.
Salzman doesn't think he can get $1.25 for a 20-ounce bottle. The highest he has gone is $1.15. "I increased other things to make up for soda," he said.
Changers must be retrofitted to pay correct change
Besides customer resistance to a $1.25 price point, Salzman said he would need to retrofit his machines with 4-tube changers in order to pay out proper change. "One of the big obstacles is changers," he said.
Ted Bilger, who operates Bilger Vending in Minden, Nev., also noted the problem with reconfiguring his changers.
Bilger said he plans to minimize his exposure to the higher prices by only buying the "core" products from the companies that have raised prices, which include his major bottler suppliers. He will buy more juice-based products from sources other than his bottler suppliers.
This strategy was cited by many vendors interviewed for this article, but it is not expected to be a cure all. The "core" products represent the fastest and highest volume sellers.
"I would have never dreamed that they're getting from us what they're getting," said Vic Pemberton, who operates Pepi Food Services in Albany, Ga. In raising his prices from $1.00 to $1.25, unit sales have declined between 8 and 18 percent. The can prices have not increased as much.
Imperial Companies, a Tulsa, Okla.-based operation serving several markets, noticed that CCE recently softened its demands a bit, but his Coke prices are still his highest, noted Paul Tims, president of Imperial Companies. Hence, he is reducing his orders mainly to Coke and Diet Coke. "Pepsi Bottling Group and PepsiAmericas didn't do that (raise prices as much)," said Tims. "It would have been devastating."
"Anytime you give somebody a 25 percent price increase, it's a slap in their face," Tims said.
Tims was among several operators who noted that the higher Coke prices is another incentive to add more non-carbonated products. "We're trying to go to juice and new age drinks anyway," he said. "Coca-Cola raised our price $3 a case. It's a justification for going to other selections."

Previous Exhibits, including the Sick Catalog
This is the archive of our second exhibit dedicated to Ghanaian beads. It is not yet well established when the Ghanaian bead industry started but it has been noticed first by the Portuguese in 1530. Most of the beads here are of a more recent generation maybe the late 1800s or early 1900s.and continuing on to contemporary examples. On certain occasions we have shown their Venetian counterparts. It is unclear yet which ones would have been the prototypes. For instance, already on a 1898 Francis Greil sample card a small yellow bead shows some similarity in the cross loop design to a favorite motif of the Akoso. There are numerous, perhaps thousands of Venetian beads that could have influenced the native industry but it can also be the other way around or they just may have influenced each other in a sort of back and forth motion. However, Venice stopped making those beads practically in the 50s and bead making in Ghana is alive and is constantly evolving. The subject can be debated!
We recommend for more information on this type of bead you read the articles by Robert Liu in “Ornament” magazine vol 25 No.2 winter 2001 and “The Krobo and Bodom” by Kirk Stanfield in “Beads” vols.12-13. 2000-2001 and his articles on the NBS website. We also thank Billy Steinberg for his participation with his outstanding collection that makes the exhibit more interesting. Comments and participation are welcome. Enjoy!
John and Ruth Picard
Please note that these beads are not for sale.

Cedar County Historical Society
September, 2013-Cedar County Historical Society Official Minutes
Vice President Judy Nichols called the monthly meeting to order at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, September 21, 2013. Members present were Nichols, Treasurer Kay Snow, Assistant Treasurer Shirley Potts, Luella Phipps, Murle Phipps, Dale Goodman, Barbara Goodman, Chris Barber, Bob Phillips, Judi Cain and Secretary Nancy Smith. Ken Potts was also present.
The Minutes and the Treasurer’s and Building Fund Committee’s Reports were approved as read. The Goodmans reported on having the museum open on Saturday, September 7. Nichols will have it open for the last regular time this year on Saturday, October 5. Smith pointed out that a new “Wish List” had been posted which included three items that the society will soon need. L. Phipps took care of one of the items.
At the October meeting, Phillips will present a program on the Civil War Battle of Stockton on July 11, 1863, and the burning of the Cedar County Courthouse by General Jo Shelby and his men on October 5, 1863. The public is invited to attend.
The Publication Committee has finished Lyceum Series: Cedar County and the Civil War and is busy printing copies to sell at the Black Walnut Festival. Early Days in Cedar County, by F. M. Williams, is at the printer and will also be available. Members set the sales prices for both publications. Members also agreed to give a copy of each, as well as one copy each of any future publications, to the Greene County Archives for its Cedar County section.
Regarding the reprinting of Early Days in Cedar County, Smith clarified the society’s rights when reprinting a publication that’s in the public domain. The society does not own the copyright to the publication. Therefore, any person or group could do the same as the society has done—copy the publication and sell copies for its own benefit without obtaining anyone’s permission.
In order to redeem our 2013 $30 certificate from Best Choice, Smith will need members’ Best Choice barcodes by the November meeting. With Summer Fresh closing in El Dorado Springs, it’s no longer necessary to save grocery receipts.
The work schedule for keeping the booth and museum open during the Black Walnut Festival was circulated. This is our biggest fundraiser of the year and helps us pay our winter expenses. All volunteers are greatly appreciated. Smith will pick up our festival packet from the Chamber of Commerce when it’s available.
Member Phil Barber has notified us that the society’s Building Fund will receive the proceeds from this year’s Griffith-Fox Tennis Tournament on Saturday, September 28, at the Ray Fox Memorial Tennis Court. S. Potts will attend the tournament to extend our appreciation to the players for participating in the tournament.
Smith will soon receive applications for booths at the craft sales at St. Andrew Lutheran Church in November and Korth Senior Center in December. Members voted to participate in both sales. Besides publications and crocheted cowls, we will also sell homemade candy and baked goods at the Korth Senior Center.
Nichols has researched the books Phillips recently purchased at an auction and brought to the last meeting. It has still unknown what these books were used for.
The Shady Hill Club will hold its monthly meeting in the museum on Wednesday, October 9. Members also voted to allow the club to hold a meeting in the museum annually for as long as they wish to do so.
The Cedar County Assessor, Chad Pyle, wants to donate several old maps and blueprints which his office no longer uses to the society. One “surprise” among these items is either a set of blueprints of the original 1867 courthouse or blueprints of later renovations of the 1867 courthouse. The Missouri State Archives has been contacted and is interested in preserving and duplicating these blueprints for us in return for copies for its collection.
Other recent donations are a school desk from Sand Hill School from Cain and a real estate abstract of title and two Stockton School yearbooks from Betty L. Smith. Also, Smith has learned that a parlor wood stove once belonging to the Allison family of El Dorado Springs might be available for donation to the society. Members voted to accept the donation if that is the case.
The meeting adjourned.
Our 352-page Cedar County, Missouri, History & Families, originally published in 1998, is out-of-print. We are now maintaining a pre-publication list for people interested in being notified when we’re preparing to reprint this book. Anyone wanting their name on that list should contact us with their address, telephone number and email address, if applicable. This list will be for notification purposes only and will not be a commitment to purchase.
Our next meeting will be at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, October 19, 2013, in our museum at 106 West Davis in Stockton. Anyone interested in Cedar County history and genealogy is welcome to attend and/or join the Society. Annual dues are $10.00 (Individual), $20.00 (Family), and $75.00 (Life). Our museum and research area are open to the public on the first Saturday of each month (April through October) from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. and by special appointment. We also do genealogical and historical research for $10.00 per hour. Contact us online at www.rootsweb.com/~mocchs, by email at email@example.com, by mail at P. O. Box 111, Stockton, MO 65785, or by contacting any officer or member.

Redshirt sophomore Francisco Feliciano (#84) is a wide receiver on Merrimack College’s Division I football team. Coming out of Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, Feliciano faced odds that were against him head on, and successfully walked onto the football team in the beginning of his freshman year back in 2017.
Francisco grew up idolizing NFL stars and when the opportunity to play the game competitively came in high school, he couldn’t pass it up. After four years of high school football at Saint Ignacio High School, Feliciano began looking at schools up north to continue playing the sport he loves and to find a place he can call home for the next couple of years.
When he came to Merrimack College for a tour he immediately felt the close knit community that the school offers.
“This was the school for me…,” Feliciano said. “After talking with the coaches, they kind of helped convince me.”
In September of 2017, when Feliciano moved into Ash Centre for the beginning of his freshman year, he quickly faced the reality of what football “up north” is like.
“Football’s like a science here, back home it’s more of a hobby… more competition, higher stakes, everything’s different”.
Last spring, Merrimack College announced their move up to Division I by joining the NEC (North East Conference).
“I was obviously excited…,” said Feliciano. “That means harder competition and working harder to push yourself to become a better all around part of the team… That’s why I love the game so much, it makes you want to be a better version of yourself.”
Football has helped Feliciano off the field and in the classroom as well. He is a Global Management major with a minor in Spanish.
“Being a part of a team is a skill I can bring anywhere, using my strengths and communicating with my teammates to get the best product possible”

Congress hails HC order allowing Karunanidhi burial at Marina
New Delhi, Aug 8: The Congress on Wednesday termed the Madras High Court ruling allowing M Kanunanidhi's burial at Chennai's Marina beach as a huge setback for "proxy callers of Delhi Durbar conspiring to deny" the DMK patriarch his rightful burial place.
Congress chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said the court's decision is a huge victory for the DMK and recalled that party chief Rahul Gandhi had strongly supported the idea of a memorial for Kanunanidhi on the Marina beach.
The Madras High Court earlier in the day, dismissed all pending petitions challenging burials on the Marina.
A division bench, which resumed the special hearing of the DMK's plea for a burial space for Karunanidhi at the Marina after adjourning it in the wee hours, rejected the state government's contention that there were legal hurdles in way.
"Huge setback for proxy callers of Delhi Durbar conspiring to deny Kalaignar his rightful Burial place.
"Rahulji strongly supported the idea of a memorial for Karunanidhi at Marina. Why are Central/State Govts silent? Huge victory of justice for DMK. Long live Kalaignar," he said on Twitter.
Gandhi had yesterday said, "Like Jayalalitha ji, Kalaignar was an expression of the voice of the Tamil people. That voice deserves to be given space on Marina Beach. I am sure the current leaders of Tamil Nadu will be magnanimous in this time of grief."
Karunanidhi died on Tuesday evening at the age of 94 following prolonged illness.

Last survivor of Great Escape dies
A Briton believed to be the last survivor of the World War II German prison breakout immortalised in the film The Great Escape has died aged 97, his family says.
Former Royal Air Force pilot Jack Harrison was among scores of Allied servicemen who tried to break out of the infamous Stalag Luft III prisoner of war camp near Germany's border with Poland.
Their efforts were portrayed on the silver screen in the blockbuster 1963 film starring US actors Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson and James Garner and Britain's Richard Attenborough.
Some 200 prisoners tried to escape on the night of March 24, 1944, through a tunnel codenamed Harry, after two other passages, called Tom and Dick, were discovered by German guards.
Mr Harrison was waiting his turn - number 98 on the escape list - when the breakout was noticed. He had to frantically burn his forged identity card and change back into prisoner uniform.
A total of 76 prisoners escaped but only three reached safety. Fifty of those recaptured were shot.
After the war Mr Harrison returned to Scotland and resumed his career as a teacher. He spent his final days in a veterans home in Bishopton, near Glasgow, and died on Friday, his children said.
"To others he was considered a war hero, but to us he was much more than that," his son and daughter Chris and Jane said in a statement.
"He was a family man first and foremost as well as a church elder... scholar, traveller and athlete. He took up marathon running in his 70s to raise money for charity.
"He was a caring father and grandfather and he will be missed by the whole family."

It’s been two days since you died quietly in my arms, your tiny body softened and released from the gruesome, final seizure by a hefty dose of Valium, which I so wish I could have shared with you. Yesterday, at home, the sight of your empty crate in its corner and your little bed lying next to my desk was something I needed to see for just a little while longer. To keep you there, just a little while longer. To remove them seemed profane; the casual disposal of your whole amazing little life. This morning I moved them to the basement. Their crushing emptiness was suddenly unbearable. I’m sorry I moved them. I had to.
You were not a perfect dog, or even a terribly good one by most standards. Your unfathomable cuteness masked a tiny, terrible, tyranny. You were willful, demanding, disobedient. You were called – by three separate professionals – “untrainable.” Two of them gave me my money back. One kept it, for her trouble. You were smart enough, certainly, to be housebroken, but not solicitous enough to bother. You were not clean. You were not well behaved. You were not easy. My love for you was not always uncomplicated.
But towards the end it was – uncomplicated, that is. You grew so old that your eyes saw nothing but the milky darkness that took them slowly over. Your ears heard nothing. But still you looked for me, still you listened for me. You never listened TO me. But you listened for me. I was your universe. My love and attention were all you ever wanted. The constant, huffy mutiny in your little soul came from having to share me with the others – I get that now. I’m sorry you had to share me. Because I never had to share you.
The 16 years we spent together were not easy ones. You sat with me through illness, mayhem, fear, and grief. So much grief. You tagged along without complaint as I schlepped you and the rest of the herd from state to state and home to home, running to things and away from things that I would never find nor escape. You did so without moping or punishing; immune to change because the only thing you really needed did not ever change.
As your body aged and grew frail, too tired and busted for the usual fuss and furor – I got to see the soul of you. I understood why you fought so hard your whole life to get to the front of the line. The other dogs and cats played together, rumbled and wrastled – needed each other as much as they needed me. You never did. I was what you needed – to be near me, with me, on me, under my feet. It was pretty fucking annoying sometimes, if I’m being honest. Being loved so fiercely, so unrelentingly. I’m sorry that sometimes I was annoyed by your love.
I think I did the best I could for you. To keep you safe and healthy and reassured, as much as I could, that I was there – always there. The choices I made for you were always what I thought to be the kindest, the safest and best – but they were not always. Sometimes they sucked. Sometimes I failed to notice that your nails were too long until they hurt you. Sometimes I took you everywhere with me so you would feel special and it only made you feel carsick. Sometimes I made you wear awful sweaters.
I let you sleep on the bed with me, nestled between my legs, until your very last day. Even after you could not see anymore – it was the one true joy you had left, and I could not bear to take it from you, even when I knew I should. I built little forts around you each night with pillows and stuffed bears so you would not fall. Sometimes you fell anyway, helpless to stop it and slamming against the hard floor with a thud I was sure would break you. Sometimes when you fell I was so scared and so sorry and so sad that all I could be was angry. I was angry only with myself, of course, but you must have thought I was angry at you. I’m sorry if you ever thought I was angry at you.
You peed and shat on the floor, sometimes a dozen times a day in the end. Diapers didn’t work – you always squirmed your way out of them or managed to get the shit half-in/half-out, making more of a filthy mess than if I’d just let you shit on the goddamned floor in the first place. I got mad. So mad, sometimes. I cursed and yelled in frustration that I was ready for this to be over. That I was tired of cleaning up your shit and your piss. That I had better things to do. I told myself you couldn’t hear me. I’m sorry I yelled anyway, even if you couldn’t. I’m sorry if I let you get too old. If keeping you alive because I didn’t want to let you go meant taking away your dignity (which, let’s face it, you didn’t have a whole lot of to begin with). I’m sorry that I lost my patience with you sometimes, because you never lost your patience with me. I’m sorry I ever thought I was ready for it to be over. I was not.
The house is too quiet. I can’t seem to stop crying and the others, they miss you. They lie alone silently, in different places, feeling the weight of the empty space you’ve left behind. They are working it out, as I suppose I am. Finding our way to the New Normal. We will be ok. But we won’t be the same.
There is so much I wish I did better. More of, less of. I can only hope you knew how much I loved you and that even when I did it terribly, I did my best. I hope you know, somehow, that so many of the choices I made – big and small, good and bad – were made for you. I hope that you knew I was there, holding you when you died. I hope that you could hear me say goodbye – if not with your ears, then with your heart. I hope you left knowing that you didn’t have to fight for my love – that you’d had it from the first second I saw you. I hope you forgive me for fucking it all up sometimes. I hope your life was mostly good.
Thank you for sticking around so long. Thank you for seeing me through the worst of times. Thank you for loving me.
Thank you for being mine.

New York Times Quotes Trevor Potter and Matthew Sanderson on Prosecuting Trump Over Call With Raffensperger
The call by President Trump on Saturday to Georgia’s secretary of state raised the prospect that Mr. Trump may have violated laws that prohibit interference in federal or state elections, but lawyers said on Sunday that it would be difficult to pursue such a charge.
. . .
Matthew T. Sanderson, a Republican election lawyer who has worked on several presidential campaigns — including those of Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky and Rick Perry, the former Texas governor — said that while it did appear that Mr. Trump was trying to intimidate Mr. Raffensperger, it was not clear that he violated the law.
That is because while Mr. Trump clearly implied that Mr. Raffensperger might suffer legal consequences if he did not find additional votes for the president in Georgia, Mr. Trump stopped short of saying he would deliver on the threat himself against Mr. Raffensperger and his legal counsel, Ryan Germany, Mr. Sanderson said.
. . .
Lacking additional clear evidence of Mr. Trump’s intent to follow up on any apparent threat, including the potential criminal charges he suggested Mr. Raffensperger or his office might face, Mr. Sanderson said, “Ultimately, I doubt this is behavior that would be prosecuted.”
. . .
Trevor Potter, a Republican former chairman of the Federal Election Commission, said the question would largely be up to the Justice Department in the Biden administration.
There is a good argument that Trump is seeking to procure a fraudulent vote count by stating that he needs exactly 11,780 votes and is threatening the secretary of state if he does not produce them,” Mr. Potter said. “But even if the Biden Justice Department thinks they have a good case, is that how they want to start off the Biden presidency? That is a policy decision.”

Prognosis of acute renal failure in children.
UNLABELLED: Acute renal failure (ARF) is the acute loss of renal function over a period of hours or days. Given the poor prognosis of ARF among children, there is some urgency to identifying more effective prognostic indicators for detecting disease onset. Such indicators would help provide the means of selecting patients who would benefit the most from early aggressive treatment. In this study we assessed the etiologic and prognostic indicators of ARF, including several risk factors such as sepsis, respiratory distress, age, among others, in 300 children who were admitted to the Ali Asghar Children's Hospital, Tehran, Iran, from 1990 to 2003. Statistical analysis was performed using multiple regression and chi-square methods, and a score to determine the prognosis of ARF in children was developed. RESULT: Based on the results of this study the three common causes of ARF are acute tubular necrosis (ATN, 38%), acute glumerulonephritis (24%) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (24.1%). The overall mortality rate among our patients was 24.7%, with the highest risk group being those patients suffering from ischemic ATN. In addition, the correlation (p<0.0005) between the etiology and mortality rate was particularly high in patients with ischemic ATN. Mortality was also high (68%) in children younger than 2 years. Multiple regression models revealed that among those factors that significantly differed between the survivors and nonsurvivors, only the necessity of dialysis (p<0.0005), the use of mechanical ventilation (p=0.05) and disseminated intravascular coagulation (p=0.038) can be regarded as independent determinants of ARF prognosis in children.

If you own a Xiaomi, Redmi, or POCO device, this news is very relevant to you. It’s also significant if you’re interested in the world of smartphones, given that these brands have hundreds of millions of users. Farewell to MIUI after 13 years as the main operating system for the Chinese company.
Xiaomi’s next flagship will not be based on the company’s veteran MIUI operating system, which has been with us since 2010. Since then, this custom Android very inspired by iOS has been the OS of all Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO launched in a decade.
Instead, the Xiaomi 14 family will be based on HyperOS, as announced by Lei Jun, CEO of Xiaomi, in X. And again, Xiaomi shows us that they don’t know how to name their products.
Goodbye MIUI, hello HyperOS
According to Android Authority, HyperOS is a new operating system for smartphones that combines Android and the Vela system developed by Xiaomi.
Initially, HyperOS will be launched on Chinese versions of Xiaomi phones. When asked if HyperOS will also be available internationally, Jun responded, “stay tuned.”
Jun didn’t share any details about the appearance of the new operating system, and we also don’t have information about its features.
Lei Jun did mention that the underlying architecture has been “completely rewritten” and that the new operating system is “preparing a public IoT foundation for tens of billions of devices and tens of billions of connections in the future.”
Xiaomi’s MIUI operating system, based on Android, has been powering the company’s phones for 13 years. The latest version of the operating system, MIUI 14, was released in December 2022 and serves as the engine for Xiaomi’s current flagship devices, including the Xiaomi 13 Pro.

text: A Kalgoorlie-Boulder woman who was caught driving with a blood-alcohol content more than two times the legal limit in the afternoon following a night out has had her licence suspended for eight months. Mairead Tone, 41, appeared in Kalgoorlie Magistrates Court on Monday and pleaded guilty to driving on October 2 with a blood-alcohol content reading of 0.118. The court was told the woman was driving on Hannan Street at 3.25pm after waking up to get some food after returning home from a night out drinking at 5am. Tone’s defence lawyer Pamela Oram said her client was surprised she “blew numbers” as it was mid-afternoon — and she had slept most of the day. Ms Oram also applied for a spent conviction on behalf of the woman and told the court it was likely Tone would soon return to Ireland to be with her sick parents. She told the court the woman was a team leader at Kalgoorlie’s Centrecare and contributed to the community in her role, and had no previous convictions. Magistrate Genevieve Cleary said it was extremely rare to grant spent conviction orders for drink-driving offences as it can “happen to anyone,” but given the woman’s circumstances and previous good character, she granted the order. Tone was also fined $1000, ordered to pay $259.50 in court costs and had her licence disqualified for eight months.


OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA/Ole Miss Athletics) – Brady Feigl had an outing for the ages, working against one of college baseball's best arms in Auburn’s Casey Mize, and led the Rebels to their first two-game edge in a conference series all year. No. 5 Ole Miss (38-13, 15-11 SEC) earned the series victory over the Tigers, putting them in line for the first SEC sweep of the year against a solid No. 16 Auburn club.
Head Coach Mike Bianco earned his 800th career victory with the win, his 700th as a skipper of the Rebels, and will look to go for number 801 tomorrow in the series finale.
Feigl set a career high in strikeouts with 12, stifling the powerful Tiger bats while allowing just one hit through his first five innings on the mound. While he couldn’t finish the complete game, Feigl’s 8.0 innings ties his career best set a year prior against Furman. The Rebels’ leading strikeout-to-walk ratio pitcher also improved on his best stat, finishing his outing with just one walk to go along with his 12 strikeouts.
While Feigl worked his magic on the mound, the Rebel bats struck early, and Tyler Keenan and Thomas Dillard were there to provide the spark as Ole Miss jumped to an 8-1 lead at one point in the ballgame. Both players finished the day with three hits, matching both of their season bests, while the freshman Keenan shined in one of his most impressive performances to date.
Keenan went 3-for-4 at the plate, with a single, double, and home run, his sixth of the year, while scoring two runs and driving in four more, the most on the night for the Rebels and also tied for his best of his young career at Ole Miss.
To go along with Keenan’s homer, Chase Cockrell also delivered with a two-run long ball in the second inning, jumpstarting the scoring fest to come. With the two home runs today, the Rebels now have 11 homers in the past five games, and eight in the last three.
The Rebels were able to do it all at the plate against one of the SEC’s most dominating pitchers in Casey Mize. Mize, who entered the game boasting the league’s most strikeouts and lowest opposing batting averages, found no luck against the Rebel bats, and set new season highs in both hits and runs allowed today.
Mize’s 5.0 innings of work tied for his shortest outing of all year, and his six runs allowed doubles any amount of damage inflicted by an opposing team on the Tiger ace since his second appearance of the year.
Ole Miss struck first in the second inning when Dillard and Keenan combined for a pair of singles, the latter resulting in an RBI for the Rebel third baseman. Cockrell brought both he and Keenan home on a two-run home run an at-bat later.
Keenan’s homer would add two more in the bottom of the fourth after Auburn got on the board with both their first hit and run of the game, a solo home run in the top half of the inning. The Rebels would go on to add more runs in each of the next three innings with RBI from Dillard and Keenan and a base path blunder by the Tigers that allowed Dillard to scamper to the plate in the seventh inning.
Feigl would attempt to go all the way, but after a leadoff home run in the top of the ninth, followed by a single, and his pitch count at 104 pitches, Bianco elected for his reliever, Greer Holston, to work the final three outs. Holston allowed a pair of hits but did not let a run cross the plate and struck out two to close the game and give the Rebels the series victory.
Ole Miss will be back in action Saturday at 4 p.m. CT with James McArthur on the mound as they go for their first conference sweep of the year.
- The Rebels improve to 38-13 on the year, 15-11 in league play, where they remain a half-game behind Arkansas for second in the SEC West.
- Head Coach Mike Bianco earned his 800th career win, his 700th as skipper of the Rebels.
- With back-to-back wins over Auburn, Ole Miss has won its first two games in an SEC series and is in line for its first conference sweep of the year.
- With two home runs, Ole Miss now has 11 homers in the past five games, and eight in the last three.
- Brady Feigl delivered his best outing all year, going 8.0 innings of work en route to setting a new career high in strikeouts with 12 to help him earn his eighth win of the season.
- Two Rebels had three-hit games, Tyler Keenan and Thomas Dillard, both of whom tied their season-best in that category.
- Keenan went 3-4 at the plate today with a home run, his sixth of the year, as well as a double, two runs, and four RBI, matching his career best in runs batted in.
- Auburn starter Casey Mize, who entered the game leading the SEC in strikeouts and opponent batting average, set new season highs in both runs and hits allowed to the Rebels.

Men’s Basketball: Holding off the Huskies
Andrew Gastelum | Sunday, January 29, 2012
Revenge is a dish best served on the road.
After No. 19 Connecticut ended Notre Dame’s 29-game home winning streak Jan. 14, the Irish stole a 50-48 victory at the XL Center in Hartford, Conn., to add to the Huskies’ recent woes. The upset completes a colossal week for the Irish who stunned then-No. 1 Syracuse at Purcell Pavilion on Jan. 21 and handed Seton Hall its first home loss Wednesday.
“I’m so proud of our group and what we are becoming,” Irish coach Mike Brey said in a postgame interview with und.com. “We are playing well and playing well at the right time. These three wins against these opponents put us in a spot [to work our way] into the NCAA tournament.”
Sophomore guard Jerian Grant knocked down two free throws late to give Notre Dame (14-8, 6-3 Big East) a five-point lead, but Connecticut sophomore forward Jeremy Lamb, who led the Huskies (14-6, 4-4) with 16 points, hit an off-balance 3-pointer to cut the Irish lead to two. After Grant made one of his two free throws, he alertly fouled Lamb before the preseason All-American could shoot a potential game-tying 3-pointer with 2.3 seconds remaining in the game.
After hitting his first free throw, Lamb — who injured his back early in the first half — missed the second and got his own rebound. His potential game-tying putback glanced off the rim as the Irish celebrated their third consecutive upset victory.
“We haven’t fouled as much in that situation,” Brey said. “But we fouled and [Lamb] missed the second shot, but we were active enough to force a tough shot after the rebound. Next time I think we will play it out.”
Dubbed the BW Parkway guards by Brey, Grant and sophomore guard Eric Atkins carried the Irish and controlled the offensive tempo, each logging 38 minutes and combining for 24 points and nine assists. After trailing 24-21 at halftime, the duo led the Irish on a 13-0 run to start the second half, as Notre Dame held the Huskies scoreless for the first seven minutes of the half.
“Those are two games where Jerian has done a good job on Lamb and then no one could really guard Jerian,” Brey said. “Atkins and Grant are really growing into men, and I am so excited about their job in league [play].”
At one point in the second half, the Irish kept possession for 1:27 straight, capitalizing on two of their 11 offensive rebounds while running the shot clock down to single digits on each possession. But Connecticut cut the lead to four with over four minutes left behind the strong play of freshman center Andre Drummond, who recorded a double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds.
Up 40-38 with 4:32 left, Atkins missed a 3-pointer, but Grant silenced the crowd by intercepting Drummond’s outlet pass and dishing it to junior forward Jack Cooley for an authoritative slam and a four-point lead.
In the first half, UConn and Notre Dame each juggled the lead before the Huskies went on a 7-0 run with just over five minutes left in the half behind five straight points from Lamb. Despite the return of freshman guard Ryan Boatright from an NCAA suspension over eligibility issues, the Huskies couldn’t get their outside shooting game going, only hitting three of 13 from beyond the arc.
Senior forward Scott Martin added ten points, including a 3-pointer that extended the Irish lead to 10 with 13:07 left in the game. But Martin’s contribution to the Irish win went beyond his clutch shooting to his poise in key moments down the stretch.
With nine minutes left in the first half, Martin drove the lane and pulled up for a jump shot, but was stripped of the ball with three seconds left on the shot clock. In mid-air, Martin tipped the ball to sophomore guard Alex Dragicevich, who threw a no-look, one-handed touch pass to Cooley for a layup as the shot clock expired.
“They had two Drummond on Martin a lot, and [Martin] had a big play with the three to give us a ten point lead,” Brey said.
But we definitely want to bottle this feeling and get a little rest because we have another tough big East team coming in.”
After snapping its six-game losing streak at the XL Center, Notre Dame will have the week off before hosting No. 14 Marquette on Saturday in the Purcell Pavilion.

Would it work if we implemented DMVPN with 2 hubs at the same location but with each one connecting different ISPs? The hub routers will be behind ISP NAT boxes and the spokes in the remote locations will be using an ADSL modem. The spoke routers will also be configured as PAT and Firewall. We also want to connect the 2 hubs to the same LAN segment.
Does anybody have any configuration examples for DMVPN redundancy with 2 HUBs connected to 2 different ISPs and to the same LAN segment? We will need a hand with NAT configuration as well on the ISP NAT boxes.


One of the very most popular pages on TheWoodNerd is the Lithium Ion Drills review. While updating the pricing, I found that the Makita drill had gone up 25% recently! Given that I thought it was barely suitable before, I have to remove my recommendation now. At $230, it’s just not worth it. The Bosch 36618-02 is hands-down the best drill AND the best value of that bunch.

Jean-Michel Blanquer, Minister of National Education, Youth and Sports, was the guest of “8:30 am franceinfo”, Friday April 23, 2021. Self-tests, canteens, exams, vaccination of teachers … He answers questions by Lorrain Sénéchal and Salhia Brakhlia.
Self-tests in high schools: “It’s not something very complicated”
The unions of teachers and school doctors are worried about the conditions of supervision of high school students in training for the Covid-19 self-tests, which will be deployed on May 10, a week after the resumption of classes. “It’s just a matter of supervising, it’s not something very complicated”, answers them Jean-Michel Blanquer. “We do things smoothly”, he assures. “On May 3, you will have the self-tests for adults. So teachers, for example, who work in high school will have these self-tests at home.”, explains the Minister of National Education.
Jean-Michel Blanquer also highlights tutorials that “from now on explain how it works. The high school students will be prepared for this and from the week of May 10, they will be able to do it in their establishment with competent staff, volunteers, to support them in carrying out the self-test.”
“Having your child at home for lunch is better”
The reopening of schools is scheduled for April 26, after a three-week closure to curb the epidemic. “When you can have your child at home for lunch, it’s better”, says Jean-Michel Blanquer. “This is not completely new, but it is true that we can underline this recommendation. It is also good so that there are fewer children in the canteen, that it is the children who most in need who can benefit from the canteen “, continues the Minister of National Education.
The canteens, “It is the weak link, not of the sanitary protocol but of daily life, as for all of us. The canteen, from this point of view, is no more the weak link than other times when child eats. But the fact is that for many children, it is the time of a balanced meal that is important for their health. There is a social issue and an issue of health “, adds Jean-Michel Blanquer.
Bac, BTS: “The rule is benevolence”
Teachers, high school students and students are worried about the conduct of the baccalaureate and BTS exams, which will take place in tense sanitary conditions because of the coronavirus epidemic. “The rule is benevolence for students. We must guarantee them the value of the diploma and support them in their success”, Jean-Michel Blanquer. “If you take the baccalaureate, for example, we maintain a part of terminal control. We have accentuated the continuous control a little and in my opinion, it is very good that there is a part of continuous control and a part of control. terminal”, estimates the Minister of National Education.
Jean-Michel Blanquer specifies that BTS students will have “a catch-up session so that they can, at the beginning of July, if they could not come for health reasons or even if they did not succeed during the next session so that they can succeed on the base an oral presentation that will take into account the difficulties they had. “
Teachers will be able to get vaccinated “a little faster than everyone else”
All teachers will be able to get vaccinated “a little faster than everyone”, assures Jean-Michel Blanquer, while for the moment only those over 55 are concerned. “This will obviously happen in May, for the next waves.” explains the Minister of National Education.
Jean-Michel Blanquer defends the vaccine strategy established by the government: “The main principle is to go from the most vulnerable to the least vulnerable and come to articulate a professional strategy. It was first the caregivers. Now it is the teachers who have a sort of short-circuit. possible with the system we have put in place for those over 55. Soon, there will be those over 50 in charge of disabled and kindergarten students. We will announce the dates probably very soon. “

Though it's been five days since officers with the San Francisco Police Department shot and killed an alleged carjacker after a multi-city pursuit, problems tracking down the dead man's family have kept us from finding out who he was.
As previously reported, last Thursday, September 25, the man allegedly carjacked a woman's white, 2003 Cadillac Escalade in Richmond at about 4:56 a.m.
California Highway Patrol officers chased him down 580, across the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge, onto southbound 101 and then over the Golden Gate Bridge. At that point, SFPD officers took over the chase, tailing him east on Lombard Street, south on Van Ness, then east again on Bush Street, where officers lost sight of him.
Then at around at 5:54 a.m., SFPD got a report that a white Escalade had crashed and tipped onto its side at Battery and California Streets, and they knew they had found their man.
At a town hall meeting at noon Monday intended to discuss the shooting, SFPD Chief Greg Suhr reiterated what he said the day of the incident: that when a witness to the crash approached the Escalade in an effort to render aid, the suspect fired a single shot from a six-shot revolver, causing a superficial wound to the Good Samaritan's chest.
According to Bay City News, Suhr said that "the man was close enough to the suspect to taste gunpowder...but the bullet traveled through the roof of the SUV and struck an 11th-story window of a nearby building," instead.
Though officers on the scene called for a less-than-lethal beanbag gun to subdue the suspect, Suhr says that before it arrived the man in the Escalade "turned his gun at the officers," which prompted six of them to open fire, shooting 32 rounds at the suspect and killing him at the scene. It's unclear how many of those 32 bullets hit their mark.
As you might recall, a witness the day of the shooting claimed that a child was in the Escalade, and that police officers had told her that the child was unharmed in the fracas. However, Suhr said Monday that there was no child present, just a child’s car seat in the Escalade.
According to SF Weekly, attendees of the town hall were concerned by SFPD's use of deadly force, and wanted to know why so many shots were fired.
"You meet deadly force with deadly force," the Weekly reports that Suhr responded. "The SFPD does not have Tasers, but you never use less force against someone with a firearm...You do not use less force until the suspect drops the firearm."
Suhr said that the officers who shot the man are on paid administrative leave during an investigation by the District Attorney’s Office, the city’s Office of Citizens Complaints and SFPD's homicide and internal affairs units, as is typical in officer-involved shootings. Assuming the investigation determines that everything was aboveboard, they could be back at work by next week.
Meanwhile, we still know little about the dead man, himself. All Suhr could say at Monday's meeting was that he was "a 34-year-old East Bay resident with prior convictions for assault with a deadly weapon, brandishing a firearm and narcotics possession," Bay City News reports. All other details, Suhr said, have to wait until officials can notify the man's family, something that as of Monday they had still been unable to do.

Could you tell us about the work you will be showing during this year's E17 Art Trail?
This is my first time exhibiting at the Art Trail and I will be selling copies of my recently published book, Home for Now (http://joannathornhill.co.uk/home-for-now-book/), at a special show price of £15. As the book is aimed at renters and first-time buyers looking for easy, inexpensive ways to transform their house into a home, all without upsetting their landlord or making big changes to the space, it seemed to fit quite well with the Inhabit theme. I will be displaying a few of the styling ideas I feature within the book, and will be on hand to offer interiors advice for anyone also looking to spruce up their place! I'm also running a competition to win a signed copy of the book, plus a goodie bag full of lovely home-for-now-friendly bounty (the contents of which can be seen in this blog post, from a previous competition I ran online).
How have you been preparing for this year's trail?
I held a launch party for my book a month ago (which you can read about here), which was good practice for the Art Trail. I am adapting what I did there to suit my new pop-up location.
Could you tell us about an an artist/ artwork that particularly inspires you?
I am a bit too much of a magpie to choose any one particular artist or piece; mainly I am inspired by individuals who have managed to create something new and innovative, and creatives who have a passion for their work and a twinkle in their eye when they talk about it. I'm also a big fan of crafts so I love being able to see the hand of the maker within a piece, whether that be a faint pencil line within a painting, the individuality of a multi-layered screen-print or even happy accidents - when I visited my venue host's (Kiln Arts) home workshop, I was particularly taken with his "frustrated potter" pieces - the ceramics that had gone awry during the firing process - which had created some stunning shapes and glazes that would be impossible to recreate, therefore making them unique and turning them into sculptures in their own right.
How does inhabiting a community like Walthamstow help your practice?
I work from home in Walthamstow and wrote the book here (and also featured several properties within it from neighbouring borough, Hackney). Having moved here just over two years ago and not knowing a soul, it's been such a pleasure to meet so many like-minded designers, artists, journalists and generally-creative-types also living here, many of whom, having initially met through Twitter (https://twitter.com/JoannaThornhill), have gone on to become real-life friends. Having that shared local connection makes it extra-special when working with people in my 'day job' as a freelance interiors stylist and writer - I have featured the work of several local designers in magazine photoshoots I've produced, including Room39, Jonathan Maker and Etoile Home, and have also obtained some press coverage of my own for my book, thanks to my Walthamstow journalist friends.
What are you most looking forward to during the E17 Art Trail this year?
This year I'm looking forward to exploring the different districts with ease, thanks to the new layout of the guide, which I think will be a real help and stop it feeling so overwhelming! As I will be spending much of the trail at my location, which is in the Markhouse area, I'm hoping particularly to pop out and about to some of the venues closest to me during any quiet moments. I'm also really looking forward to visiting the Blackhorse Studios, which are very near my own home - it's great to have such an interesting venue nearly on your doorstep!

Prince Harry accepts damages and apology from paparazzi site for aerial photos
Cape Town – Prince Harry has once again proved that he doesn't take the safety of his family lightly.
The Duke of Sussex has accepted damages as well as an official apology after paparazzi site, Splash News, took aerial photos of his and Meghan's $3m, four-bedroom country home in Cotswold Hills, England, E! News reports.
According to BBC News, Prince Harry's lawyers told a High Court hearing that the pictures were taken from a helicopter and included images of the inside of a bedroom as well as living and dining areas.
Splash News called the images, which were published by sites including the Times newspaper, an "error of judgement" that will never happen again.
They further released a statement, saying: "We apologise to the Duke and Duchess (of Sussex) for the distress we have caused."
This is not the first time Prince Harry has taken action to protect his wife, Meghan.
The British royal confirmed his relationship with the former American actress while asking the media and the public to respect her privacy by means of an official statement from Buckingham Palace.

Birders have tons of festivals, seemingly across many geographies and months of the year. These events are often 2-4 days, and full of seminars, field trips, and other activities. These events often draw people from large areas (like entire US states, or sometimes across the country and beyond). Are there similar events but with a broader naturalist slant?
I’ve seen a few birding festivals tack on “…and nature”, but they seem to still be 80% birding.
Just curious what’s out there.
I would say Moth Night. Every state/area has a group dedicated to it, which usually draws quite a few people. It takes place during June, I think?
I don’t know if this counts as a festival, but the conservation districts, forest preserves, ect, in my state go to a conference every year where all manner of conservation subjects are discussed like:
Archeology, natural land divisions, nesting birds, reptile diseases, new invasive species, bees and so on. One year there was even a workshop on using iNat to log what is on the properties.
We have a Butterfly Festival in South Texas the week before the Birding Festival. In October/November. A really good time of year for both. Many of those attending are into other areas of nature. I setup my moth sheet for both festivals last year.
Many parks or conservation areas with sufficient amounts of birders and birds host owl prowls, where you are guided through the forest with a group at night to see owls, and sometimes other night critters if your lucky. The Great-Horned Owls are always a treat!
Oklahoma has an Outdoor Festival in the fall that’s geared towards kids. We also have a BioBlitz organization that puts on events across the state during the statewide blitzes.
Most such events I’ve read about seem to be scheduled around Earth Day. A number of them disappeared during Covid.
