The recent spell of warm and sunny weather has allowed many farmers to either finish come very close to completing this year’s harvest.
The latest U.S.D.A crop report shows 94 percent of the corn crop has been harvested — and for the first time this year the harvest is not behind the five-year average. Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey talked about the harvest during a stop in northwest Iowa.
“It’s really coming along very good, we have some parts of Iowa that are done, and the tillage is done and fertilizer going on the ground,” Northey says. He doesn’t expect it to take too much longer before all the combines have finished their work.
“We do see a lot of progress, the forecast is good, the conditions are very good now, the corn is drying down and I would imagine within the next week or so there won’t be too many acres left in the field,” Northey says.
The numbers he’s hearing on the harvest are good for corn. “Average yield in Iowa across all acres expected to be199 bushels and acre,” Northey says. “And 59 bushels and acre for soybeans. Again that’s a record.”
Northey, who farms near Spirit Lake says his harvest is completed after some weather setbacks. “We had a little wet spell in the middle, so we had a little bit of mud in the middle. And I had a little too much rain in May when I planted some of the corn, so we had some stand issues. My corn crop wasn’t the best I’ve had — it was a little bit better last year than this years,” Northey says.
The Agriculture Secretary says he has some post-harvest work left to do before wrapping everything up for the years. While harvest is winding down in most of the state, southwest and south central Iowa still have more than 10 percent of the corn crop and almost 10 percent of the soybean crop remaining to be harvested.

INSIDE POLO with Ron Allen
It was a familiar match up in the finals of the Gold Cup: Cambiaso vs.
Facundo. I happened last fall, three times, in Argentina. They met earlier
this season in Florida in the Whitney Cup with Facu’s Zacara team
winning by a goal. But Cambiaso’s Valiente team wanted to win the Gold
Cup for a second year in a row.
Pelon Stirling (10) scored first for Valiente at the 3:30 mark of the
opening period and by the end of the second Zacara took an early 4
to 2 lead. One of those points came on an amazing 90-yard goal from
Facundo Pieres (10). Zacara was leading by one at the half as Adolfo
Cambiaso (10) failed to score in the first three periods of play.
Following the mid-game break it was all about Valentes’ horsepower as
they out scored Zacara with six unanswered goals, four of those points
from Adolfo as he took control of the game. In the final two minutes of
the 5th chukker Valiente scored three times. A big day for the Jornayvaz
family as Valiente wins the Gold Cup for the second year in a row 13 to 9.
Last year’s winner: Robert celebrates with his Father
The MVP was young Santi Torres (6) with seven goals in the game and
Pelon’s mare Silk was given Best Playing Pony honors.
MVP: Santi Torres

European stocks and US equity futures opened the week lower after unexpectedly weak Chinese economic data increased fears of a global slowdown.
The regional Stoxx 600 share index fell 0.8 per cent in early dealings, while London’s FTSE 100 lost 0.7 per cent.
Futures contracts that wager on the direction of Wall Street’s S&P 500 fell 0.9 per cent and those on the technology-heavy Nasdaq 100 dropped 1.2 per cent.
Monday’s moves signalled global equities may continue their longest weekly losing streak since the 2008 financial crisis, as soaring inflation drives central banks to raise interest rates at a time when investors are worried economic activity is not strong enough to withstand tight monetary policy.
“Markets are falling not just because of higher interest rates,” said Luca Paolini, chief strategist at Pictet Asset Management.
“The risk of a recession [in major economies] is significant,” he added. “The reality is a big chunk of the global economy is basically contracting.”
Data on Monday showed Chinese retail sales dropped 11.1 per cent in April from the same month last year, in a worse result than economists had expected, as a wave of stringent coronavirus lockdowns across the country reduced demand. Industrial production, which analysts had expected to rise slightly, fell 2.9 per cent.
Meanwhile, Brussels was set to cut its growth forecasts for the euro area further and lift its inflation outlook to reflect the predicted effects of an energy crisis triggered by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on the EU economy.
Lloyd Blankfein, senior chair of Goldman Sachs, told CBS News on Sunday there was a “very, very high risk” of a US recession. The world’s largest economy contracted unexpectedly in the first quarter of the year, while consumer price inflation was running close to a four-decade high.
The US Federal Reserve earlier this month raised its main borrowing cost by 0.5 percentage points, while chair Jay Powell said moves of the same size “should be on the table at the next couple of meetings”.
European Central Bank president Christine Lagarde also signalled last week that the institution was ready to drop its long-held policy of keeping interest rates in the currency bloc below zero.
Adding to concerns about sustained global inflation, wheat prices rose by the maximum limit on Monday after India banned exports in response to supply disruptions caused by the Ukraine war.
In Asia, mainland China’s CSI 300 share index fell 0.8 per cent, while Hong Kong’s Hang Seng added 0.2 per cent and Tokyo’s Topix traded flat.
Brent crude oil dipped 1.2 per cent lower to $110.2 a barrel.
The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note, which moves inversely to the price of the benchmark debt security, fell 0.04 percentage points to 2.9 per cent as traders retreated from equities to buy up the low-risk asset.

My family and I had a wonderful time
Visited on "July - 2017
Spacious. Clean. Great Owner
Came down to Miami to celebrate my birthday. I thought 7 guys would show up and I ended up getting surprised by 2 more guys. So we had 10 guys staying in the house. And guess what? It wasn't a problem. There was a bed for every single guy. We ended up using Uber to get around. We were a little unlucky in that there was a big art expo that weekend so the traffic was terrible but once we arrived in South Beach the large fun crowds made up for it. Some of the other reviewers talk about the neighborhood being rough. The deal with the neighborhood is that it's not the prettiest. But it's mostly folks with large families of small kids. It's super safe. And it's extremely quiet at night. Thanks for letting us stay at your place... the bottle of champagne was a nice touch...Al D.

- Bread Pudding:
- Butter to coat baking dish
- 1 loaf Pepperidge Farm cinnamon-swirl bread
- 2/3 cup golden raisins
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 3 cups milk
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup vanilla extract
- 8 eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Praline Sauce:
- 2 cups unsalted butter, cubed, divided
- 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
- 3 pounds light brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 1/2 cups sour cream
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Adapted from tablespoon.com
Preheat oven to 325°F.
Coat bottom and sides of a 2″ deep (large) baking dish heavily with butter.
Tear bread into 1″ pieces. Mix with raisins and spread evenly in prepared dish, turning crusts side all the way down to stop burning.
Whisk sugar, milk, whipping cream, vanilla, eggs and cinnamon until blended. Pour over bread mixture.
Place baking dish in a 4″ deep baking pan. Add water to reach midway up side of the baking dish. Bake 1 hour.
Remove from water bath and let stand until cool. Spoon into dessert bowls, warm in the microwave and drizzle with warm praline sauce. Top with whipped cream and add a scoop of ice cream, if desired.
Heat 1 cup butter in large saucepan until melted. Add pecans and blend well.
Bring to a boil. Cook until pecans begin to change color. Mixture will foam over, so use a large saucepan.
Add remaining butter and blend well. This will cool the pecan mixture and stop the cooking process. Remove from heat.

Writer David Ashton mixes wonderful characters and great stories with humor, poetry and charm.
I discovered the Inspector McLevy series while searching for more BBC4 radio dramas. Enjoyed the John LeCarre and Raymond Chandler dramatizations. Also the BBC Radio Sherlock Holmes. I listened to Levy Series #1 and immediately bought Series #2. Within weeks I had downloaded and listened to Series 1 through 7 -- 28 episodes.
Brian Cox as Inspector James McLevy and Siobhan Redmond as Jean Brash beguiled me. I could listen to Brian Cox deliver Ashton's brief philosophical monologues all day.
But beware -- these stories are set in Scotland. The accents of the pickpockets and petty thieves can be a challenge. If you need to easily grasp every single word on the first listen this may not be your cup of tea (or, as Inspector Levy would say, your cup of coffee). However, if you enjoy Masterpiece Theatre period drama on the tube give McLevy a listen. Ashton’s Victorian world of Edinburgh may enchant you, too.
This is an ongoing radio series in Britain. I can't wait until more are available on Audible.

“Before I landed in Pyongyang, I didn’t know Kim Jong-un from Lil’ Kim,” Dennis Rodman tells Sports Illustrated. “I didn’t know what country he ruled or what went on in the country he ruled.” Regardless, Rodman was offered money, so he went. Now he thinks he should “finish in the top three for the next Nobel Peace Prize.” Stranger things have happened, we guess.
“Lacks even basic diplomatic skills”
“Please show more respect”
“An insult to the royal house”
“A spoiled child”
“Trump lives on another planet”


President Abraham Lincoln loved all things mechanical, especially firearms. During the War Between the States, the president squabbled constantly with the U.S. Ordnance Dept., and he even tried new designs, such as the Spencer and Henry, on the White House lawn. My, how times have changed.
In the early decades of the 20th Century, a number of makers offered a new class of gun called the pocket pistol. These were among the very first semi-automatic pistols ever made and they attracted a great deal of attention. There were many makes offered—Browning, Beretta, Mauser, Walther, Astra Star, et.al., in Europe, but the American makes were fewer.

Moving to Arizona | 2021 Cost of Living and Relocation Tips
The state of Arizona sits on the southwestern wing of the map of the United States. If you asked us to give it to you straight, we’d say the state is a hot mess. To be more accurate we’d say it’s triple the hot and minus the mess! Many people tend to know about the state’s soaring temperatures but that doesn’t stop Arizona from attracting more and more people who rush themselves to settle here.
Presently, even the census records show that the state is ranked among the top states that are growing faster than ever in the US. Which makes us wonder, is it the 320 days of summer that attract people here? Or could it be the beauty of pine covered mountain towns, cactus pastures and varied desert landscape? Well without doubt, it can’t just be this.
All this pondering made us want to get knee-deep in to find out more about it. Fortunately for you, we’ve got answers that will help you understand if the grass could really be greener on the Arizona side of things for you. So without further ado, here’s why the state is much more than the wonder of the Grand Canyon and what moving to Arizona is all about!
Weather In Arizona
Now, if you’re considering moving here, you will want to prepare and understand whether you are ready to adapt to the weather conditions of the state. So let’s just get right to it. The truth is, all year round, the weather in Arizona can fluctuate between feeling sunny, humid and dry without even the slightest of breeze to be a comforting companion. But in reality, the state has roughly 4 distinct seasons.
The summers in the state begin around the month June and end roughly by September. Summers in Arizona can be brutal, so be prepared to run from an air conditioned home to an air conditioned car. Do note that when the summers are in full swing in July, the temperature can hit and stay 100+ degree celsius for days. Naturally, we would highly recommend that you stay indoors as much as possible during the month of July. If you’re visiting during the summers, you may take some time to get acclimatized to the heat. But it is manageable once you’re used to it. Of course, it also depends on your resistance to hot weather in general.
Summers in Arizona could also mean that a ‘haboob’ is around the corner. Haboobs are a kind of a dust sand storm that quickly takes over areas and disturbs visibility. The winds of a haboob are occasionally calm, but at times it could flair up. Take our word for it and ensure you don’t be way too casual about this because it’s precisely when you should tread on the path of caution.
The weather is most pleasant during Spring (March-May) and Fall (September-November) months. It drops below 90 degree celsius and residents get a good break from the summers.
The winters on the other hand would begin by December and last through February. Winters in Arizona are very mild. The temperatures would range between 12-24 degree celsius with barely any snow. However, at times it does tend to rain during the winter months. Quite frankly though, it can make the weather even more pleasant. In December, Arizona also attracts a good deal of ‘snowbirds’, which are basically people visiting the state from colder Northern parts of the US to escape the snow. So the roads and attractions start to get clogged with tourists.

Key Takeaway – It’s possible that you’ll enjoy the sunny clear skies in Arizona from September to March. And as a newcomer of the state, you would probably take some time to get used to the summers in Arizona. We won’t blame you if you detest the high humidity in the month of July. You may or may not find the heat manageable, but at the end of the day, it boils down to your personal preferences.
Transportation In Arizona
Light rail system
The Valley Metro Rail is a 45kmlight rail line serving the cities of Phoenix, Tempe and Mesa in Arizona. Since its inception it has been able to connect residents from the upper-central areas of Dunlap Avenue in Phoenix to downtown areas like the city of Mesa. Depending on the area you reside in, it is considered the most practical mode of transit to reach downtown Phoenix. 40 minutes approximately – that’s all it takes. However, the entire journey from start point to finish is 85 minutes.
Interesting stops of the journey are – Downtown Phoenix, Sky Harbor International Airport, Arizona State University and Mill Avenue in Tempe. There are plenty other stops as well.
Fare – 1 day ticket cost for anyone from the age of 19-64 is $4, while it’s half the cost for individuals outside this age group.
The thousands of tourists that visit Arizona would agree that the roadways in this state are some of the easiest to figure, even if you’re new to the state. The capital city of the state, which is Phoenix, follows a grid system with roads running either through north, south, east or west. Most of the city roads were actually laid out and planned for convenience of residents, with the exception of Grand Avenue.
Arizona 101 Loop is an outstanding example of this kind of master planning of the roads. This loop, as the name suggests, is basically a road that circles the city of Phoenix with a series of roads connecting you to the major suburbs of the Phoenix Metropolitan area like Tolleson, Glendale, Peoria, Scottsdale, Mesa, Tempe, and Chandler.
Arizona also happens to have the largest network of freeways, which is presently one of the nation’s largest. Among them, Interstate 10 and Interstate 17 are the 2 major freeways. We’ve given you a bit of a lowdown on where these roads can take you:
Interstate 10 – This is the most expansive east-west connection in the US. Major cities that you can plug into are Los Angeles, Phoenix, Tucson, El Paso, San Antonio, Houston, Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Gulfport, Mobile, Tallahassee, and Jacksonville.
Interstate 17 – This road runs over Arizona in the north-south direction and connects Phoenix to Sedona, Prescott, Flagstaff and The Grand Canyon.
This allows you to prep for a bunch of road trips since the state also has 7 interstate highways that allow you to easily access the neighboring cities in states like California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico.
The Valley Metro agency that runs the light rail system in Phoenix also runs the bus service in the city. If you reside in downtown areas of Phoenix, the bus can be a budget-friendly way to get around. The Valley Metro has a trip planner section and the entire bus schedule on their website that helps you take the right bus to get to your destination.
The state’s largest and most extensive airport is the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, which happens to be the world’s 7th busiest airport. The major cities namely Tucson, Mesa, Yuma, Prescott and Flagstaff also have their own commercial airports.
Job Market In Arizona
Currently, the population of the state of Arizona is 7.4 MILLION people! We can only imagine the millions of people needed to service a state with a population that’s already this big and still growing everyday. So it should come as no surprise that jobs linked with the service sector of Arizona are the big industries that are constantly in need of employees.
Few of the industries that have a high demand for candidates are the transport & construction companies, healthcare & educational institutions, hospitality establishments and financial corporations.
Banner Health, The University of Arizona, Swift Transportation, U-Haul, PetSmart, Insight Enterprises are some of the big companies that have headquarters in the state of Arizona. If anything, these guys are the key players in helping old and new residents find lucrative job opportunities.
Renting in Arizona
It is considered that housing in Arizona is very affordable. Something that backs this is the amount of $1,495 as the median rent of homes in the state. Such a price range could look extremely attractive for those moving from the neighboring states like California. Depending on the state you’re coming from, the rent prices of Arizona could seem more or less appealing to you.
To put things more into perspective, let’s look at reports by HomeSnacks and Zillow.
The average median rent for:
- 1 bedroom home in Arizona – $1,191
- 1 bedroom home in California – $2,100
- 4 bedroom home in Arizona – $1,600
- 4 bedroom home in California – $3,150
In the case above, there’s a higher possibility of renting a larger place in Arizona, considering how you would be getting more for your money. We recommend doing a similar analysis if you are thinking of renting a place in Arizona.
Cost Of Living In Arizona
To decide if Arizona is the right move for you, it is necessary to do a comparative analysis of the cost of living in your current hometown vs the city you choose to live in Arizona. In general, we’d like to share that there’s a high chance you would need to pay more for utilities in the state of Arizona. Since you’ll be dealing with temperatures well over 100 degrees, you’re most likely going to be using that air conditioner for way more hours which ultimately means a high number on your energy bill. Average utility bills in Arizona are $128/month
Costs for transportation, groceries, healthcare and taxes in some of the biggest cities like Phoenix is actually on par with the national average cost in the US. However, in certain suburbs the cost of living can be far cheaper than the national average.
To put things in perspective here is a comparison of cities from 2 distinct areas –
- Median value of homes in Phoenix – $283,594
- Cost of utility bill for 1 month in Phoenix – $161
- Median value of homes in Bullhead City – $224,984
- Cost of utility bill for 1 month in Bullhead City – $148
These are just estimated costs to convey that depending on the city you’re moving to, the cost can get higher. If you’re not sure which city would be the perfect match for you, read further to find a list of the top cities of the state.
Top Cities To Move To In Arizona
Tucson is presently the second largest city in Arizona and is recognised as the ‘City Of Gastronomy’ by UNESCO. Now doesn’t that speak volumes about the city’s culinary heritage? This part of the town is also home to museums, art galleries, The University of Arizona, historical landmarks and much more. Both Saguaro National Park and Sabino Canyon serve as recreation areas, giving you the opportunity to hike and camp by the scenic canyons. You also won’t have to worry much about transportation, since Tucson has a single-line streetcar system known as the Sunlink. It’s meant to help residents and visitors stay connected to the popular areas of the city.
Median price of homes sold: $219,800
Median rent: $950
The town of Chandler is part of the suburbs of the larger Phoenix metropolitan area. Students, professionals and families who move to this part of the state get to enjoy the perks of the big city Phoenix, but also take advantage of the vibrant community life and family-friendly nature of the suburbs. It is considered that Chandler is the perfect hub for professionals and those who are moving to Arizona with their families. All of this because the schools in this district have a good reputation. To add to that, Phoenix is just a drive away. The city has also been ranked as the second best suburb to live in Arizona and it is extremely common to find a ton of parks and coffee shops in the area.
Median price of homes sold: $368,266
Median rent: $1390
The city of Scottsdale is considered the ‘Beverly Hills of the Desert’ because of the upscale and premium make of homes, shops and nightlife here. The grocery prices also round up to being 5% higher than the national average. A good deal of luxury homes, affluent shopping malls, fancy restaurants, spa resorts, golf clubs can be found in the area. Scottsdale could be a great option for those who can afford to live here since housing can be extremely expensive. Although Scottsdale is an expensive city in Arizona, the lifestyle is top-notch and it’s possible that it could be an affordable luxury for few.
Median price of homes sold: $545,828
Median rent: $1598
The town of Tempe is surrounded by the major cities of Arizona, with Phoenix in the west, Scottsdale in the north, Mesa in the east and Chander to the south. Tempe is centrally located and isn’t far from all the hotspots. The dozens of parks, restaurants and nature trails are few of the advantages of living in this part of Arizona. You’ll find that the North side of Tempe is populated by students, because of the close proximity to the university of Arizona. So there’s definitely lots of college students occupying the town. However, the location works in favour of finding jobs in the big cities, enjoying the vibrant culture and affordability of the place.
Median price of homes sold: $331,288
Median rent: $1419
Buckeye is presently the fastest growing city of the state of Arizona. Thousands of people who consider moving to this state from all over the world have their eyes on Buckeye, which is why moving here would mean experiencing an extremely diverse culture. You can also get more for the bucks in this part of town since housing is comparatively cheaper. The city has some of the safest communities and drive time to bigger metropolitan areas isn’t a hassle. Some of the most popular neighborhoods to consider are Sundance, Sun City Festival, Verrado and Festival Foothills.
Median price of homes sold: $271,716
Median rent: $1,106
Our Take On Arizona
Arizona is currently the third fastest growing state in the US and is rapidly increasing in population along with a steady economy. Moreover, the state is also massive in size and incredibly beautiful with ridiculously nice weather most of the year. It’s home to the marvelous Grand Canyon, Colorado river and innumerable desert towns like Sedona. We believe that Arizona has a huge deal of advantages, which is why it has attracted and grown to a population of 7.4 million people. Now that you know enough about Arizona, do you have reasons to call this state your home? If the answer is yes, you might want to take the next step and read about getting an Arizona DMV Change Of Address done if you plan to move with your own vehicle.

Developing the health and well-being of learners though creative activity.16-March-2021
Since 2017, our tutor Helen Ingham has worked with our Mind partner learners, developing their art skills and facilitating creative activities in the Creative Hub. Helen shares her thoughts with us, reflecting on events from the last year and how these have led to her adapting her learning.
Helen has many years of experience in community art, teaching, and art therapy; she is also a practicing artist. She adopts a hands-on approach in designing schemes of work that have supported learners to explore their creative nature and support their well-being. Helen has experimented with artistic ideas and at times, gets the opportunity to work alongside the learners as she is teaching.
From a single course, interest has grown doubling the learner numbers from which two groups have been created. Learners have the opportunity to gain qualifications, which provides an additional incentive to some, though participation in the creative process within a supportive environment is the main incentive for most. The courses offer a space for positive well-being and creativity to flourish.
Learning through Covid-19
Helen has retained many learners on a series of courses which has allowed her to witness the development of her learners in so many ways. She has seen the positive impact her lessons have had on her learner’s mental health, increasing self-esteem and prioritising ‘social connection’ through art.
“Throughout the challenging last year, the objective has been to keep people in contact with each other and engaged. Both the weekly meet-ups and the art making itself have kept everyone going.”
Helen and many of her learners have adapted to online delivery, and for many the continuation of art lessons has been a lifeline. The weekly lessons have enabled learners to stay connected, offering a safe space to develop artwork, stay in touch and make new friends throughout the difficult year. For some, these lessons have been the only time they have had the chance or felt comfortable to engage with others.
Adapting to lockdown life has been challenging to everyone. Initially, some learners felt uneasy about participating in online learning as use of digital platforms and communications could at times feel daunting. Helen supported her learners by printing and posting tasks to learners who weren’t comfortable with digital means, and regular phone calls to go through tasks. She gave additional support to those that wanted to engage with digital technologies, through emails and the setting up of a website to share resources, photos and positive imagery. This later developed into using Moodle and Microsoft Teams to support and facilitate the classes.
Helen has explored creative ways to teach her learners, from creating personalised art packs delivered by post, to using a webcam to demonstrate techniques. Conveying and sharing art through video has been something that Helen and her learners have had to work around and adjust to – holding up sketchbooks and artwork to the camera and describing artworks; this has developed additional communication skills throughout the online learning. Digital skills and confidence have increased to the extent that most now participate in Microsoft Teams sessions, photographing and posting images of their artwork onto the Moodle platform, although Helen concedes,
“I miss not being able to peek over someone’s shoulder and see the work being made!”
All Round Benefits
From the learner perspective, Helen’s efforts have been clearly welcomed, with one learner saying,
“It’s been wonderful to still be able to take part. It’s an extra boost, having to do something.”
Another learner added,
“Most important for me was seeing other people, old friends and making new ones. It made a lot of difference. And the banter! It has helped so much.”
As new learners joined the art classes during the last year, Helen hasn’t yet had the chance to meet some learners face-to-face. Despite getting to know them really well using Teams, she is looking forward to meeting them and seeing their art works in person too. In the future, Helen hopes to organise an exhibition to celebrate the artworks created over the last year. Until then, images of the art created are uploaded to the Facebook page where learners are able to see the groups’ art work together in a virtual gallery format.
Our congratulations go to Helen and her learners. Keep up the great work and we look forward to seeing more art online and at an exhibition in the near future. To see Helen’s art work and other projects please visit www.artmedicine.co.uk.

PGA Tour Golf II is a golf simulation game developed by Polygames and published by Electronic Arts for the Sega Genesis in 1992. In North America, it was released as part of their EA Sports label. The game was later ported to the Game Gear in 1995, co-published by Time Warner Interactive.
The sequel to the Genesis version of PGA Tour Golf, PGA Tour Golf II builds on the original's three main courses (TPC at Sawgrass, TPC at Avanel, and PGA West Stadium) with three new courses: TPC at Southwind (located in Memphis, Tennessee), TPC at Eagle Trace (located in Coral Springs, Florida), and TPC at Scottsdale (located in Scottsdale, Arizona). It also features higher-quality graphics and a new game mode based on the PGA Tour's Skins Game event.
The new courses were later brought back to certain versions of the original game, with the Amiga version receiving these courses as an expansion disk (Tournament Course Disk) and the SNES version replacing the fantasy course with TPC at Eagle Trace.

ESP8266 based room-conditions monitor, Part 1
When I built my Freeform ESP8266 OLED MQTT client and wrote about it I mentioned I have a long-running project which captures the data I wanted to display on the device. I call it Room Monitor and it is nothing special - a bunch of sensors connected to ESP8266 and powered with a battery. I am going to briefly sum‑up its hardware and software development in the following two articles. This one is going to cover prototyping and the next one the current (and semi-finished) PCB version.
In search of the best custom keyboard layout
I built my first custom keyboard (Katana60) back at the beginning of this year and the second one (Corne) a few months ago, but I am already designing another one. Apart from the fun I have as I build and customize those keyboards, it is about looking for a more effective keyboard layout for my daily work. This article sums up my journey which leads to the decision to design own keyboard.
Squid badge - my first PCB design
I designed my first PCB. It’s not useful at all and very primitive electrically. But I have learned a lot.
I have build katana60 - a custom mechanical keyboard - a few months ago and I use it on a daily basis. But there are so many interesting keyboard designs out there. It just too tempting not to build another one.
This time I chose the Corne Keyboard - or ckrbd if you want. This one is designed by a guy from Japan who calls himself foostan.
Need a USB cable? Build one!
When you have a custom keyboard with some nice keycaps and case, you might start to think, what should I customize next? Let’s start with the cable which connects my keyboard to my computer!
Freeform ESP8266 OLED MQTT client
My second freeform creation, or third if we include The CyborgDuck is here. I wanted to do something simple in order to gather more experience and improve my skills.
Cyborgduck - a 555-timer-based dead bug cirquit
Behold, our cyborgduck overlords are coming!
Freeform 555-timer-based breathing diode bug
I have been watching those amazing freeform creations by people like @MohitBhoite and @jipraus for some time. I examined many entries for the recent Circuit Sculpture Contest on hackaday.com and have been thinking, that I would love to build something like that, but I had been convinced that my skills are not good enough.
But skills can be trained and learned. So I finally ordered a few brass rods and tried my first freeform sculpture. Here’s the result.
Learning the hard way - DIY power measurement unit with INA219 and ATtiny85
A story about how I was reminded that impatience and impetuosity can backfire when dealing with hardware.
Building a custom keyboard - Katana60
I learned recently that there’s a huge community around making of custom mechanical keyboards. Even though building such keyboard is actually quite expensive I failed to resist the temptation and decided to build my first one.

in-depth analysis of the child’s behavior
The adult can either read the interpretation alone or with the child. You may wish to discuss the information with the child or apply the information at appropriate times.
The analysis reflects what all adults know: every child is different, even children in the some family; each needs a different approach.
A simple device guides you to the appropriate interpretation to help you understand and guide the child more effectively.
look at what it contains:
You receive a description of the child’s “feeling state” or disposition. The identification helps adults to accept the child who is different from adults and to appreciate the child who is easy to get along with.
Every child seeks a “unique place in the sun.” Puzzling or illogical behavior becomes understandable when adults understand the goal and can smooth the child’s path.
judges others by:
Understanding how children judge others helps adults to appreciate their preference in companions. And adults can develop their tolerance for those who are different from themselves.
influence others by:
This section describes the child’s strengths and impact on others. It enables adults to identify the positives for the child and to reinforce those behaviors. It also helps adults build the child’s self-esteem.
value to the group:
Adults can use this information to help the child find a place in the group which is necessary to develop a sense of role and worth among peers.
This information pinpoints how strengths can become weaknesses and enables adults to guide children in keeping strengths in the positive range.
Children react differently to pressure. They may be stubborn, rebellious, or uncommunicative. This section identifies the child’s behavior and looks beyond to the cause. .
With this knowledge, adults can teach the child to use the positive energy of fear and to diminish hostility.

Top Judge Urges Claiming Compensation for Iranian Tanker’s Detention
By Staff, Agencies
Iran’s Judiciary chief said the Islamic Republic should claim compensation for the illegal detention of its supertanker ‘Adrian Darya’, which had been captured by the British Royal Navy and held in Gibraltar for six weeks.
Addressing a Monday session of the Judiciary’s Supreme Council, Hojatoleslam Sayyed Ebrahim Raeisi described the government of Gibraltar’s decision to release Iran’s supertanker Adrian Darya, formerly known as Grace-1, as a testimony to the defeat of Iran’s enemies.
“Such length of detention would not be simply made up for with its release, rather, compensation must be received with legal proceedings, so that it would give a lesson to all those violating international regulations,” Raeisi underlined.
The Iranian supertanker has been released by the government of Gibraltar more than a month after it had been captured by the British Royal Navy on suspicion of attempting to breach global sanctions against Syria.
Gibraltar on Sunday rejected a US request to continue holding the Iranian supertanker.
The supertanker, containing more than 2 million gallons of Iranian light crude oil, was seized on July 4 in a British Royal Navy operation off the coast of Gibraltar.

More than 130 telly addicts in Bracknell have been nabbed for enjoying programmes without a licence – but just 50 in law-abiding Wokingham
New figures released by TV Licensing show 138 people were caught watching without a licence in Bracknell between January and June this year.
However, Bracknell’s figure pales in comparison to nearby Reading, where 440 were caught, and Slough, where 545 people were fined.
The new figures revealed 95 per cent of homes in Berkshire have the correct licence.
Ian Fannon, TV Licensing spokesman, said: “The vast majority of people in Bracknell pay their licence fee and to be fair with those who pay we have to be firm with those who attempt to get away without paying.
“We take TV licence evasion very seriously and, while we give people every opportunity to pay their licence fee in one go, we do not hesitate to prosecute people If they break the law.”

Ice tea, also iced tea (sometimes there is a difference, sometimes there is not) refers to a cold drink with tea taste.
Supermarket ice teas are often sweetened and/or syrup-based, may be carbonated, and often bear limited relation to tea in terms of taste or ingredients. Instant teas not meant to be hot may sometimes be called ice tea.
People that wish for a more tea-like ice tea may make their own, since doing is pretty simple.
Home made ice tea is usually fairly regular (black or green) tea, and made as regular hot tea, while some leave tea leaves in water out in the sun for an hour or so. Making tea hot may work better since various teas soak better in hot water, you can avoid bitterness when using black teas, and be surer of fewer bacteria than with sun tea.
Ice tea is often served fridge-cold, optionally with ice cubes.
You may wish to make the tea stronger than usual, as you may taste the actual tea less when it is cold, and since the lemon and the honey may overpower it. -->

The trunk is a general term for the core body region including the chest, abdomen, flanks, and back. Excluding the V-neck and upper back, most of the trunk is covered by clothing, and thus is less exposed to sunlight. Therefore, photo-aggravated or photo-induced dermatoses can frequently be seen on the upper chest and upper back, but typically spare the rest of the trunk. On the other hand, the lower trunk is more commonly involved with dermatoses related to clothing. Clothing may incite rashes due to allergic contact dermatitis from chemicals in the clothing, soaps, dryer sheets, and laundry detergents. Clothing also may create a warmer, humid environment ideal for the development of diseases such as folliculitis, acne, and tinea versicolor.
A high density of sebaceous glands in the presternal area may provide an ideal location for malassezia yeast proliferation, making this a common location for seborrheic dermatitis.
Skin folds are also prominent on the trunk including the axilla as well as the infra-mammary and infra-abdominal regions. Skin folds are unique environments with increased moisture, due to sweat retention, and warmth, that breeds overgrowth of specific microbial flora, especially yeasts, and can lead to maceration. In addition, the occlusive environment increases various inflammatory pathways and can result in friction between tissues that can result in irritation. Finally, the umbilicus is unique in that it has a high density of apocrine glands. Interestingly, some conditions including psoriasis and scabies often favor this site.
Skin diseases involving the trunk can be broadly placed into the following categories starting with the most common diseases (Table 41-1):
Table 41-1.Skin diseases of the trunk. ||Download (.pdf) Table 41-1. Skin diseases of the trunk.
Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD)
F > M.
Age: Any age, may be more common in adults due to increased product usage.
Itchy rash, sometimes with blisters and painful fissures. Onset is hours to days after contact with allergen.
Geometric or linear configuration as well as a sharply demarcated distribution are clues to an external cause
Acute: Pink to red, edematous, plaques with papules and vesicles.
Chronic: Xerosis, fissuring, hyperpigmentation and lichenification at sites of direct contact with allergen.
Distinguish from other types of dermatitis due to a sharply demarcated distribution and geometric/linear configuration. Location is an important clue to the cause of ACD involving the axilla (e.g., preservatives, fragrances and clothing) or navel/lower abdomen (nickel).

DISCLAIMER: All opinions in this column reflect the views of the author(s), not of EURACTIV.com PLC.
Slow trade growth will be the dominant feature of the world economy in the coming decade, not because of the latest tariff dispute between the US and China, but because of three longer-term trends, argue Ilaria Maselli and Ataman Ozyildirim.
Europe and America’s trade negotiators have a tense month ahead. If they fail to strike a deal by May 1, the US administration plans on lifting the steel and aluminum tariff exemptions it has temporarily granted Europe.
But amid the anxiety, something bigger remains overlooked: With or without tariffs, the recent uptick in trade growth looks unlikely to continue over the next few years.
As the global economy slows in the decade ahead, constrained by aging populations and weak productivity growth, slow trade growth will be the dominant feature of the world economy.
Lower volumes of imports and exports will be moving around the world because companies are increasingly sourcing their supplies and intermediate inputs locally. Businesses in mature economies on both sides of the Atlantic have started to shorten their supply chains considerably as of 2011, reversing the trend that characterised the previous two decades.
This is happening at the same time that three longer-term, trade-accelerating trends slow or level off.
First, in the mid-20th century the flow of goods across borders was accelerated because of major improvements in transportation. Advancements in containerised shipping and air freight led to shorter shipping times and cheaper costs. These efficiencies made it possible to rapidly ship components between factories across the world.
Without a doubt, improvements in transportation continue to this day and companies have started to utilise new technologies. But as of now, they are neither at the speed nor of the magnitude of those just a few decades ago.
Global trade in the 1990s and 2000s also made enormous gains because of advances in information and communications technologies. Until then, international business was fueled by faxes, telex machines, written correspondence, and expensive but sometimes unreliable telephone calls. But over the next decade, many of those communications were replaced by e-mail, transferable digital files, and inexpensive yet good-quality phone calls.
Fast forward to now: progress still continues but at a far more incremental pace.
And finally, in recent decades trade was propelled by the global integration of emerging economies – most notably China. This globalisation trend led to more low-cost production and new sources of revenue that simultaneously raised living standards and trade volumes.
But today, the speed by which those emerging market countries have been catching up to the most advanced economies has slowed considerably, reducing the impetus for trade growth.
With those three critical factors no longer fueling trade, the global economy poised to slow, and increasing public hostility towards globalisation and its effects, it is difficult to imagine that global trade will remain the signpost of a recovering global economy.
But the picture is by no means all doom and gloom for business. The international institutions and networks that promoted the creation of global value chains are still in place and functioning, and businesses should not over-react to the noise generated by big announcements.
Moreover, businesses should consider how new technologies such as additive manufacturing, robots, and artificial intelligence can help to source more inputs locally. This will become increasingly a more pragmatic solution than simply following the old patterns of offshoring to low-cost locations.
Early evidence suggests this is already occurring. In Germany, for example, Adidas is building a new fully automated shoe factory. And newspapers now highlight more and more stories of reshoring manufacturing production towards the US and Europe.
Looking ahead, trade will be slower with or without new tariffs. Even though trade growth will put on the brakes, businesses should support open trade on a level playing field that ensures fair rules for all sides.
Without a doubt, an existing, structural slowdown in global trade would only be exacerbated by a new round of protectionism and bring an earlier-than-necessary end to the recent cyclical pick up in global trade that began in mid-2016.
The larger trends in trade must be considered by industry and government leaders.

The venom from snakes and other deadly lizards could be used to help treat or even cure diabetes, high blood pressure and cancer, scientists have revealed.
Snake venom contains a huge variety of lethal molecules called toxins which, due to the way they work, make useful targets for new drugs. Because toxins are harmful, drug developers have to modify them to retain their potency and make them safe for drug use.
However, a joint British-Australian study of venom and tissue gene sequences in snakes has now found that the toxins that make snake and lizard venom lethal can evolve back into completely harmless molecules, opening the door to new drug treatments for serious conditions such as diabetes and cancer.
Dr Wolfgang Wüster from Bangor University, a co-author of the study, explained: "Many snake venom toxins target the same physiological pathways that doctors would like to target to treat a variety of medical conditions. Understanding how toxins can be tamed into harmless physiological proteins may aid development of cures."
Lead researcher Dr Nicholas Casewell, from Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, commented: "Our results demonstrate that the evolution of venoms is a really complex process.
"The venom gland of snakes appears to be a melting pot for evolving new functions for molecules, some of which are retained in venom for killing prey, while others go on to serve new functions in other tissues in the body."
Gavin Huttley, from the Australian National University, said: "This is proof-of-principle that an otherwise toxic molecule can be modified to provide benefit to an organism, supporting interest in exploring their pharmaceutical potential. It's just another tool in the arsenal to provide opportunities to target human diseases that we really want to fix."
The findings are published in the latest edition of the journal Nature Communications.

Chinese Fireworks Blamed for South Korea’s Fine Dust Pollution, Research Shows
As a result of a component analysis by the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science…
The source of the ultrafine dust that covered the sky during the Lunar New Year holiday has been identified. To cut to the chase, experts estimate that about half of the ultrafine dust across South Korea is due to the impact of fireworks in China.
During the Lunar New Year holiday on the 11th and 12th, the concentration of ultrafine dust nationwide was at a “bad” level. There were speculations that this could be due to the fireworks in China during their similar holiday period, the Spring Festival.
Amidst this, on the 19th, SBS News reported the results of a component analysis by the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science on the ultrafine dust concentration in Taean, Chungcheongnam-do, which is close to China.
The media reported that while nitrate and sulfate typically increase and sulfate remain unchanged when the ultrafine dust level rises in early February, both nitrate and sulfate increased during the Chinese Spring Festival period.
Sulfate is a component primarily released when fireworks explode.
An official from the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science explained to the media, “During the fireworks period, nitrate and sulfate levels were almost similar. Overall, the impact of fireworks is very significant”.
NASA satellite images also supported this claim. On the 11th, dust flowing from China to Korea was captured as a gray band, and it was confirmed that the spread across the country the next day was also observed.
Excessive exposure to ultrafine dust can cause or exacerbate heart and lung-related diseases. It can directly and indirectly increase mortality rates.
When the concentration of ultrafine dust is high, it is advisable to refrain from going out and reduce outdoor activities as much as possible. Also, to maintain a clean indoor environment, it is necessary to regularly clean living spaces to reduce the accumulation of fine dust. Placing air purifiers where much time is spent can also be helpful.

I woke up this morning trying to figure out what’s this pain on my back and sadly I found out it was munched by a bed bug! It’s so gross and I don’t want my girlfriend to see it! Can an antibiotic cure me from these bites? I only have antibiotics here and the nearest mini convenience store is 5 kilometers away so yeah help me please! Thanks Natasha!
just got back from two weekends of traveling to two diff locations. noticed a slight rash yesterday on the side of my ribs and a couple smaller itchy spots on one side of my stomach, etc. i don’t think it was from the first weekend of travelling as my bed companion didn’t get anything. the second weekend was at a college campus, but i had wiped the bed down before putting sheets and a sleeping bag over it. got back home sunday and noticed the itch yesterday (tuesday). so now i’m freaking out and assuming the worst scenarios. i’ve washed and dried all my clothes (though i did leave my suitcase out for two days before i even realized the itch), my sheets, and used a handheld steamer on my mattress, clorox / lysol the edge of my bed and the wooden frame, vacuumed all open areas on my wooden floor, etc. not sure if i should go to urgent care or what, but i’ve so far used hydrocortisone (previously already prescribed). can you please help or can i send you photos since you’re more familiar with this? never happened to be at home before all 20 something years so now i’m terrified i brought something back with me!
Another clue to infestation is odor. Like many species of bugs, bed bugs release odors called alarm pheromones. When a group of bed bugs gets disturbed, you may get a whiff of that odor, which is similar to the odor stink bugs give off. At higher concentrations the odor is unpleasant. Some people say at low concentrations it's a pleasant smell—like coriander. In fact, older literature refers to the bed bug as the coriander bug. I've tried to smell the coriander scent in bed bug alarm pheromones and have not been able to make the connection, however.
Bed bugs are not too picky when it comes to feeding. As long as skin is exposed, it’s a juicy target. However, it seems that bed bugs enjoy feeding on the neck region, making their feeding habits very close to those sparkly vampires you see on Twilight. Since most people wear pajamas when they go to sleep, other common areas for bites include the arms, hands, feet and face since they are also exposed. If you are sleeping in a hotel and are nervous about bed bugs, simply wear extra clothing to completely cover your skin. You can also purchase plastic covers to protect yourself against these pests while sleeping out.
One bed bug will usually take more than one bite. Once a bed bug inserts its mouthparts and finds a suitable blood vessel, it will begin feeding. However, finding the right blood vessel may take more than one injection into the skin. In addition, bed bugs are very sensitive to movement by the host they are feeding on. Therefore, if a sleeping person moves, a feeding bed bug will probably withdraw its mouthparts and begin its search for a blood meal on another part of the body. It’s important to remember that the number of bites a person receives is not indicative of the number of bed bugs that feed on that person.

The enormous task of upgrading wastewater treatment plants along the Merrimack River has by now been thoroughly examined and publicized.
The main culprit, combined sewer overflows (CSOs), annually dump an average of 500 million gallons of raw sewage into the Merrimack River, an improvement over the 750 million gallons discharged just a few years ago.
“CSOs are a relic of 19th and early 20th century sewer systems that were built in the Merrimack Valley’s industrial cities,” John Macone, the Merrimack River Watershed Council’s policy and outreach specialist, previously told the newspaper.
They include treatment facilities in Lowell, Lawrence and Haverhill in the state, and upriver treatment plants in Manchester and Nashua in New Hampshire.
During rainstorms, too much water enters the combined sewer lines. That excess water and sewage gets discharged into the river to prevent damage to sewer plants and sewage backups into homes and businesses.
Manchester dumps 221 million gallons of combined water and sewer annually on average, and Lowell 194 million gallons. That’s in contrast to Nashua’s 21 million gallons, Lawrence’s 39 million gallons and Haverhill’s 30 million gallons.
As odious as it sounds, this dumping is allowed. Each wastewater treatment plant signed agreements with the Environmental Protection Agency that enables the practice to continue until the problems are corrected.
Even with federal assistance, the local resolution could be two decades away. That’s because CSOs occur nationwide.
So, what’s an impacted community to do? Just throw up its hands and hope for some federal largesse to flow its way?
Incrementally, the city of Fitchburg has demonstrated it’s possible to make progress toward that goal.
In 2012, that city entered into a federal court settlement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the state’s Department of Environmental Protection, which required it to perform various studies and infrastructure improvement projects.
According to Anthony Maressa, Fitchburg’s sewer system manager for the Wastewater Division, those requirements included eliminating CSOs into the Nashua River.
Fitchburg still has about 9 miles of combined sewer and rainwater pipes left in its sewer system, concentrated in the areas around downtown and in the Cleghorn neighborhood.
In May, the city submitted a Wastewater Management Plan to the EPA and MassDEP that laid the groundwork for compliance with the federal settlement, in part by separating the remaining combined sewers in Fitchburg by 2030.
“The preliminary cost estimate is almost $30 million to separate roughly 5 miles of combined sewer along with other improvements to the 13 miles of sewers in the area,” said Jeff Murawski, the deputy commissioner of the Wastewater Division.
The project will close four major combined sewer overflow points and prevent over 10 million gallons of sewage from entering the river each year.
At more than twice Fitchburg’s population, we can’t necessarily compare the scale of Lowell’s remedial water treatment challenge with that of its North Central Mass. neighbor.
However, it might worth Lowell’s while to investigate whether it can apply any of Fitchburg’s steps to correct this problem to its own situation.
It beats waiting around for a combined flow of state and federal bailout money.
