The Health and Social Care Committee has warned that diabetes - and the additional health complications that often follow - is costing the NHS in Wales half a billion pounds per year.
"A failure to continue taking action will mean ever larger numbers of people with diabetes with ever larger numbers of complications," the Committee said.
"That would mean more people living with ill health. We should not simply accept that as inevitable.
"People with diabetes are more likely to develop heart disease, kidney disease, blindness or may require an amputation.
"All of this costs the NHS in Wales half a billion pounds every year and it's likely that this figure will increase as the number of people with the condition continues to grow."

To date, 50 countries have banned physical punishment of children in all settings, including the home. Canada is not among them (and neither, incidentally, is the United States). No child deserves to be hit. There are things that children do that anger parents, or that put the child or others at risk, or are socially unacceptable, but there is never a reason to hit another human being to discipline or teach. What does this mean, in plain language? It means parents should not be allowed to hit or spank their children.
Here's a question for you ladies: when was the last time you took the time to really sexy yourself up? With Halloween just around the corner, let me remind you all -- men and women alike -- that it's the perfect occasion and excuse to ignite some fire into your confidence and/or the bedroom.
Technology has been a staple in businesses, governments and other organizations for many years. Why are hospitals so far behind? Not only would the better use of the new fangled Internet and office software and procedures save time, it could improve quality of care. What other sector still uses pre-computer administrative practices?
We live in a world of bold, dazzling Technicolor. Feel and emote in an array of vibrancy and texture. So it's important that our characters reflect that same richness all around us; otherwise, the alternative is to fade away into the desolate landscape of the white default.
Halloween isn't a holiday that inspires many to travel. It falls after the busy summer travel season and before the expenses of the holidays. But Canadians don't have to pull out their passports or buy expensive flights to take a spooky Halloween escape. Canada is loaded with haunted houses and creepy places, and these four are well worthy of a trip this time of year.
Don't judge someone's highlight reel until you've seen the blood, sweat and tears it took them to get there. Don't react to someone's success when you can choose to be inspired by their example. Because here's the truth behind the glossy photographs: We all have a story.
My father, Wang Bingzhang, is a Chinese political prisoner currently serving the 14th year of a life sentence for his work in pro-democracy activism.

These thoughts I have are irrational and uncontrollable. They're more than overthinking, and they're more than overanalyzing.

But for now, trying is all I can do.
To be fair no government can deliver on everything in their first year.

DELTONA — Dressed in black with scarves draped over their faces, four men armed with aluminum baseball bats burst into the house on Telford Lane and beat six people to death.
Their motive: revenge over a missing XBox video game player and a bundle of clothes, Volusia County sheriffs deputies said Sunday.
The Microsoft XBox, which retails for about $150, belonged to Troy Victorino -- and he was bent on retaliating against the woman he blamed for its disappearance, investigators said. Even friends feared Victorino, 27, who has a long and violent criminal history.
"This was a senseless crime for a senseless reason," Sheriff Ben Johnson said, in announcing the arrests of four suspects.
"It's ridiculous," said Eva Echavarria, a friend of one of the victims.
Three of the suspects, all 18 years old, confessed to the killings, which occurred at 1 a.m. Friday, authorities said. Some of the victims were sleeping when the attackers kicked in the front door. When deputies arrived later that morning, the house was bloody and all six people there were dead. Four of the victims were couples who lived there and worked together. Two others were friends who happened to be staying the night.
Investigators picked up Victorino on Saturday on an unrelated warrant and arrested him hours later on six counts of first-degree murder after another suspect implicated him in the killings.
That suspect, Jerone Hunter of Deltona, gave police Victorino's name and the names of two others: Robert Cannon of Orange City and Michael Salas of Deltona. No one else is thought to have participated in the attack, deputies said.
Police called Victorino the "ringleader." They said he rallied the others to kill after one of the victims, Erin Belanger, 22, removed his belongings from her grandparents' house, where Victorino had been staying. He was living there without Belanger's grandparents' permission while the older couple spent the summer up North, according to several relatives.
Victorino and a group of friends had turned the quaint ranch house on Providence Boulevard into a round-the-clock party spot until Belanger discovered them and called the police.
After deputies sent the group away, Belanger cleaned up. She boxed up Victorino's XBox and clothes. He was in jail at the time, arrested on a felony assault charge, so she took the items to the house on Telford Lane, which she rented with friends, officials said.
When Victorino entered Belanger's home Friday, he was looking for revenge rather than the return of his Xbox, deputies said. Belanger's father said he thinks that is why she suffered the most savage death, her face so disfigured that dental records didn't help police identify her.
"It appears as though she was targeted," Johnson said. He said the victims had "no chance, no way," to defend themselves.
The irony, police said, was that Belanger had packed up the items to give back to Victorino.
The other victims were: Belanger's boyfriend, Francisco "Flaco" Ayo Roman, 30; Michelle Nathan, 19; Nathan's boyfriend, Anthony Vega, 34; Jonathan Gleason, 17; and Roberto "Tito" Gonzalez, 28. All of the six worked, or had worked, at a nearby Burger King, which has remained closed since the bodies were discovered after one of the group did not show up for work Friday.
At the time of the slayings, Victorino was on probation for one assault and out on bail from another.
On July 29, eight days before the killings, he was arrested on a felony battery charge. He had beaten up an old friend, Claude Timogene, after Timogene approached him about fixing a car that Victorino had wrecked months earlier, Timogene said.
"I didn't get a chance to say anything before I got stopped; I got attacked," said Timogene, who knew Victorino at Deltona High School.
Although Victorino was serving a seven-year probation for savagely beating a 20-year-old acquaintance in the face with a walking stick in 1996, Volusia County Judge Freddie Worthen ordered that Victorino be held on $2,500 bail. By Monday, court records show, Victorino had been released on bond.
Sheriff Johnson said he didn't know why Victorino had been released so quickly.
"I can't give you that answer," Johnson said. "We just put them in."
Timogene, 28, said he repeatedly told police that Victorino was dangerous.
State Attorney John Tanner said that when someone violates probation in Volusia County, it is policy for a prosecutor to request that the suspect be held without bail. That is the instruction that prosecutors are supposed to follow, Tanner said.
In the days after Victorino was released from jail, Belanger complained to family members that she had been threatened outside her home, and that her roommate's tires were slashed, Belanger's brother-in-law, Joe Abshire, said by phone from Massachusetts.
Belanger had called Abshire just two days before she died.
"She was afraid for her life," Abshire said. "She said the police didn't take her seriously."
Sheriff's investigators said they were never told of those threats.

In a bizarre and heart-wrenching happening, at least 15 children were killed in South Sudan, not by bullets, hunger or disease, but by a botched immunization attempt. The incident happened as a number of children were been vaccinated against measles.
According to an investigation into the cause of the deaths, the children met the sad end when they were vaccinated with the same unsterilized syringe. This was coupled with the fact that the vaccines were also not stored properly. This resulted in them contracting severe infection and sepsis.
South Sudan health minister in an address said that the team administering the vaccinations were neither qualified nor trained to do so. This assertion was backed by a report from the Associated Press that stated that during the campaign, children as young as 12 years were administering the vaccine to others.
According to reports, about 300 people were vaccinated during the campaign in the Kapoeta region of South Sudan, including 32 other children who fell ill but survived. This brought the total number of children affected to 47.
The outbreak of Measles outbreaks in the country is a consistent battle that the United Nations children’s fund (Unicef) is fighting with the final aim being to vaccinate 1.2 million children by the end of this year.
South Sudan was declared as an independent nation-state in 2011 but has struggled to fare any better than when they were part of the Sudan government. The desert country has also found it hard-going to provide basic amenities for its citizens and to maintain services like healthcare since civil war broke out in 2013
According to United Nations estimates, more than one million children fled the country during the conflict, and a million more are displaced within the country.
Measles is a contagious viral infection that attacks the human body and the respiratory tract most especially. Sepsis, on the other hand, is a potentially deadly immune response triggered by an infection which spreads quickly in the body. This infection if not arrested on time can lead to multiple organ failure and death.

CD reviews for Little Big Town
When the chorus to Leavin' in Your Eyes kicks in with some lovely layered vocals, it's tempting to compare Little Big Town to Fleetwood Mac. After better sense kicks in, though, it's more reasonable to categorize LBT as Fleetwood Mac-lite, at best.

To its credit, though, Fleetwood Mac could never produce anything nearly as catchy as Pontoon, easily the »»»

Little Big Town has bounced around the country music industry through no fault of their own, but when it comes to the music, LBT moves beyond its role as the country successor to Fleetwood Mac.

After only four albums in a dozen years, there's a certain truthfulness that comes with a title like "The No-Hit Wonder."

Brand new Big Family Festival
It will feature an outdoor cinema, DJs in 20ft Ibiza Ghetto Blaster area and a solar-powered comedy tent.
Oh, and CBeebies Rastamouse will be turning up too.
Big Family Festival is the brainchild of a Sutton Coldfield couple who were tired of trawling the internet for ideas to fill the summer holidays, only to be left disappointed.
So, they decided to create an event themselves, with the help of their two daughters.
It will kick off the summer holidays to a good start, taking place at Dunton Hall, Curdworth, Sutton Coldfield, just off junction 9 of the M42 on Saturday July 30 and Sunday July 31, 2016.
Having spent 15 years running dance events, Angela Hopton and George Kafetzis know a thing or two about organising large scale events and realised there was a genuine gap in the market for an event that was truly suitable for all the family.
“We wanted to create something that encompasses all aspects of children’s entertainment in a festival setting, a festival that has its main focus on children and entertaining them,” says Angela, who is mum to Jorja, 10, and Rebekah, eight.
“Something that people didn’t have to endure a three hour motorway journey southbound to find, something that hopefully may tempt those further south to travel up the motorway themselves for."
• BBC’s The Voice finalist Lyrickal and CBeebies Cook and Line will be performing at the festival.
• We Love DJs will take over the Ibiza Ghetto Blaster area with DJs on rotation throughout the whole weekend in front of a 20ft x 15ft ghetto blaster.
• A ‘chill-out den’ complete with surprise celebrity storytellers, table tennis, DJ tutorials and Q& A sessions with music producers, actors and authors.
• Interactive science shows, circus skills, dress up photo booths and breakdancing workshops are planned too, together with local talent on the main stage.
• Singalong at an outdoor cinema
Each day’s entertainment runs from 11am to 11pm, and camping is available too. Day tickets start from £29 for adults, £15 for children aged 10 to 17 and £8 for kids aged five to nine. Family day tickets cost £74 plus booking fees. Book via Skiddle http://www.skiddle.com/festivals/big-family-festival/

GLENROSE XABA JOINS SPAR GRAND PRIX HALL OF FAME
08 November 2018
Glenrose Xaba has become the eighth athlete to win the coveted SPAR Women’s 10km Challenge Grand Prix, finishing the 2018 series in style with a total of 104 points.
Twenty-three year old Xaba of the Boxer Club won the Pretoria Challenge, finished second in three races, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and Durban and came fourth in Johannesburg. She and three other runners, including last year’s Grand Prix winner, were disqualified in the Pietermaritzburg race for taking the wrong route, but this did not prevent her from winning the title, with prize money of R185 000.
She joins superstars like Poppy Mlambo, René Kalmer, Mapaseka Makhanya, Irvette van Zyl, the Phalula twins, Diana-Lebo and Lebogang and Kesa Moletsane as the latest winner of the title.
“I am very happy to have won the Grand Prix,” said Xaba.
“The prize money is very important to me, but what is more important is that I feel very humbled to be ranked alongside runners like Kesa and Irvette. “I am proud of what I have achieved,” said Xaba.
The 2018 runner-up was Zimbabwean Rudo Mhonderwa, who proved the value of consistent performances in all the races. Mhonderwa had no podium finishes, but she was fourth three times, fifth once and sixth twice, earning 97 points and the second prize of R60 000.Her Nedbank teammate and fellow Zimbabwean, Rutendo Nyahora was third, with 92 points. She takes home R35 000.
Last year’s winner, Kesa Moletsane, finished in fourth place with 91 points. Her disqualification in the Pietermaritzburg proved costly, as she would have finished higher on the log if she had earned points there. She started the year with a bang, winning in Cape Town and Port Elizabeth, but in Durban she only managed sixth place. She was third in Pretoria and Johannesburg.
The most remarkable runner of 2018 was three-times Grand Prix winner, Irvette van Zyl, who finished fifth on the log with 85 points. She was third in Cape Town, despite being six months pregnant with her second child. She did not run in Port Elizabeth or Durban, but returned to the series in Pretoria, eight weeks after giving birth and finished fourth. Two weeks later she won the Pietermaritzburg race and she finished the series with an emphatic win in Johannesburg, where she earned bonus points for beating last year’s time. She was the only runner in the open category to do this.
The success of Van Zyl, Mhonderwa and Nyahora meant that Nedbank was able to reclaim the club title it surrendered to KPMG last year. Nedbank finished with 532 points. KPMG have 391 points and Boxer 372.
“At the beginning of the year, I didn’t think we would do so well,” said Nedbank national team manager Nick Bester.
“Irvette was pregnant and Rutendo was injured. But the girls came good and I am very proud of them,” he said. “We always aim to have 50 per cent of the top ten and our girls did us proud this year.” He said he thought Van Zyl would reach new heights in 2019. “When you see what she is achieving so soon after giving birth, it is amazing. I think she is going to set things alight next year.”
SPAR Marketing Director Mike Prentice said he was delighted that the Grand Prix continued to prove so popular and that new faces were being added to the Grand Prix Hall of Fame.
“The SPAR Women’s Challenge series is one of our most important sponsorships,” he said.
“We are pleased that we are reaching thousands of women around the country, but also that we are contributing to the development of road running by encouraging the elite runners.
“I would like to congratulate Glenrose on her achievement, but I would also like to congratulate each of the thousands of women who took part in the six races that make up the Grand Prix Challenge.”

The kitten was found emaciated, exhausted, and hungry, but lucky to be rescued by a kind woman who gave this poor cat love and warmth. The woman had been walking down the street when she spotted the tiny feline huddled in a dark corner, barely able to move. It was clear that the kitten had been abandoned and left to fend for itself.
Without hesitation, the woman scooped up the kitten and brought it home with her. She could see that the little cat was in desperate need of medical attention, so she took it to the vet right away. The vet confirmed that the kitten was severely malnourished and dehydrated, and needed immediate care.
The woman spent countless hours nursing the kitten back to health, feeding it small meals throughout the day and giving it plenty of water. She also made sure to keep the kitten warm and comfortable, providing it with a cozy bed and a soft blanket to snuggle up in.
Despite its rough start to life, the kitten began to thrive under the woman’s care. It grew stronger and more playful each day, and soon became a beloved member of the woman’s household. She named the kitten Lucky, in honor of the fortunate turn of events that had brought them together.
Thanks to the woman’s kindness and compassion, Lucky had a second chance at life. The kitten that was once emaciated, exhausted, and hungry was now healthy, happy, and full of energy. Lucky’s story is a testament to the incredible impact that a little bit of love and warmth can have on a life in need.

SIMON Corbell says a report by three leading international climate change organisations has ranked the ACT’s emissions reduction targets as the second strongest in the world.
The report, Unlocking Ambition: Top Corporate and Sub-national climate commitments, by the Carbon Disclosure Project and the Climate Group, and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, released ahead of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change meeting in Bonn, Germany, lists the ACT as having the equal second highest emissions reduction target of any state or region in the world.
“I am pleased that the ACT is being recognised by a global institution for our leadership on climate change. The ACT’s emissions reduction target of 80% below 1990 levels by 2050 is equal second highest,” Simon said.
“While the ACT’s target ranks well against progressive international counterparts such as New York and California, it’s even more significant that our strong emissions reduction targets are stimulating the growth in terms of jobs and investment in a renewable energy economy.”
The ACT was the only Australian state or region to be included on the state/region list, which included California, New York, Scotland, British Columbia and Ontario.
“The ACT is well on track to meet its first legislated emissions target of 40% below 1990 levels by 2020, largely through major investments in renewable energy, with 40MW of solar and 200MW of wind capacity already secured under its innovative reverse auction system.”

5 of the very best virtual experiences to whisk you away into another world:
Fondation Claude Monet will now allow you to tour his house, virtually. We can’t get enough of the yellow dining room with its chequered floor, the copper saucepans lining the tiles in the kitchen, nor the wonderful rattan furniture in his studio. If you want to step outside into the garden, which Monet deemed ‘his greatest work of art’, we like this 3-minute tour with RA curator Ann Dumas too.
Explore Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild’s magnificent estate, where Queen Victoria was a favourite guest. A clever new 360-degree virtual tour experience welcomes you into five rooms including the Bachelors’ Wing, Tower Drawing Room, Green Boudoir, Red Drawing room and the Small Library. You can click on certain objects to learn more – a stunning Murano glass chandelier, Meissen porcelain, Gainsborough portraits, Savonnerie carpets etc. There are lots of details you wouldn’t see on a normal visit: the true apple green and pink colour of a cushion fabric in the Tower Drawing room for example. Explore here.
Queen Mary’s Dolls’ House is usually on display at Windsor Castle: now you can view it and all its tiny contents online. Designed by Edward Lutyens’ and built between 1921 and 1924 it’s a microcosm of Edwardian England – complete with running water, electricity and working lifts. Perfect 1:12 scale includes a garden by Gertrude Jekyll and a library containing 170 miniature books by writers of the day: J.M. Barrie, A.A. Milne, Thomas Hardy and Edith Wharton. Contributors were encouraged along with their donations by Lutyens’ regular ‘Dolleluiah Dinners’ at the Savoy – everyone from Berry Bros. to Rolls Royce and Cartier were involved. Explore here.
Walk around Prince Charles’ garden at Highgrove, over 40 years in the making. In fact it’s made up of lots of different and very diverse gardens: there’s the green, fern-filled Stumpery where Prince William and Harry’s old treehouse is nicknamed ‘Holyrood House’, the traditional Old Cottage Garden designed by the late Rosemary Verey OBE, the tranquil Lily Pool Garden with its Borghese gladiator, the colourful Sundial Garden, and it goes on. We particularly like the look of his Sanctuary made with Highgrove clay, and Thyme Walk with yew topiary in the shape of crowns. See it all here.
Imagine yourself as Marie Antoinette, isolating in splendour at Versaille thanks to Google’s Virtual Reality experience. You need a VR headset to get the full immersive experience, but even if you don’t have one you can still explore the empty palace on foot (like using Google street view) walking through the Hall of Mirrors with 257 glinting mirrors and 17 windows, zooming in on details in the Queen’s bedchamber and looking around the Opera House. The online exhibitions are also good, we enjoyed this look at Fashion at Versailles including Marie Antoinette’s style, hair and jewellery.

That looks familiar! Katy Perry channels Kim Kardashian as she rocks platinum blonde braids and plunging one piece
They are both trendsetters.

That looks familiar! Katy Perry channeled Kim Kardashian on Friday as she got her hair done up into two long braids - a hair 'do that was a dead ringer for a style Kim rocked previously.
And Katy made little secret of the fact she had been inspired by the Kardashian family.
'Katy Kardashian,' the Dark Horse singer captioned the Instagram photo.
She also tagged Kim, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Rob Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner, Kris Jenner, and Caitlyn Jenner.
The titillating photo featured Katy as she seductively played with her long platinum blonde braids while wearing a plunging baby pink one piece complete with choker detail.

Nanotechnologies in coating pretreatment
STOP TO ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION: AHEAD WITH ECO-SUSTAINABILITY!
Let us talk, or better, let the experts talk about low environmental impact pretreatment technologies. In issue No 553 the authoritative magazine ‘Verniciatura Industriale’ devotes ample space to the resolute eco-friendly operation that makes FAMI one of the leading metalworking companies engaged in improving the quality of products by keeping monitored the ecological impact of the employed production technologies. The aim is the development of top quality products that are at the same time perfect sustainable.
ust to give you some hints about it, the article mentions the vigorous technologic evolution, which has implemented the automatic production processes of the industrial plant in Via Stazione Rossano Veneto, in Rosà (VI) through the application of nanotechnologies in powder coating pretreatment with low environmental impact.
By substituting the phosphate coating – an acid-based chemical process that creates sludge – as pretreatment technique, the company leadership has noticed a quality increase in the coating processes. Yet, the environmental protection by means of next-generation technologies with the lowest environmental impact and sustainable products are prerogatives of the Fami-Group.

That sound you can hear is the USMNT on the charge back up the FIFA world rankings, as they are in the top 20 for the first time since 2014.
[ MORE: How to watch PL in the USA ]
After a number of hugely positive results, and performances, over the last 12 months, Gregg Berhalter has led the USMNT back into the top 20 in the world rankings and it feels like this is just the start for this young side.
Recent wins at Northern Ireland and against Jamaica and Panama at neutral venues will have helped this ranking, so too did the draw away at Wales.
Latest USMNT news
A note of caution: all four of those games came with the USMNT having their strongest squad (barring a couple of players) available, while their opponents were severely understrength.
Still, it has been a tough few years for USMNT fans so climbing back into the top 20 is a step in the right direction. The Stars and Stripes were ranked as low as 35th in 2017, and they have been hovering just outside the top 20 for a long, long time.
With a friendly away at Switzerland in late May, then CONCACAF Nations League Final Four, Gold Cup and 2022 World Cup qualifiers coming up in the summer, there is a real chance for the U.S. to push closer to CONCACAF’s best team, Mexico, who is ranked 11th as they slipped down two places.
European giants dominant the top 10 with Belgium in first, France second and Brazil in third. England sit fourth, Portugal fifth, Spain sixth, Italy seventh, Argentina in eighth, Uruguay is ninth and Denmark is tenth.
Below is the latest top 30, with plenty of changes coming up this summer as the Gold Cup, European Championships and Copa America tournaments take center stage.

Try to go, over there
A photography project
120 film (6x7)
Mikito Tanaka, a Kyoto-based photographer, started his project Try To Go Over There in 2003. The project presents 28 works which are ironic and touching at the same time. They are fueled by visually futuristic and constructivist allusions conceived by the artist, with a lasting impression remaining anchored in humor.
The psychological discoveries and anticipations of the artist are realized in dangerous situations. Tanaka inserts a human figure, which we later find to be himself, into places where a human being is not allowed or meant to be. A unique proof of his endeavor is captured on 120 mm film.
Most strikingly, Tanaka performs all the dangerous actions depicted by himself. In one instance he stands in a provocative pose on an iron bridge or on a ferry’s wheel 15 m above the surface, in another he seems to be flying over the monochrome water or hovering in the space of a huge iron lozenge construction. In order to capture the image he envisions, he jumps into the water time and time again, getting drenched in the process, all to realise his vision. Despite this methodical and precise execution, there remains a deliberate touch of amusement and comedy within his work.
Tanaka is not just bringing the idea of masculinity to audacious visibility, but most importantly challenging physical and psychological limitations. In a way, the artist breaks social constraints, whilst also relishing his almost cinematic gambits, which grant him a single glorious moment of total freedom - a flight away from everyday life.
After taking an analogue photo, Tanaka removes the details, which he considers to be nonessential, and reduces the complexities of nature to their basic underlying geometrical forms in order to highlight the economy of line and aesthetic austerity. By solely maintaining the fundamental aspects and forms of the objects which make up the image, Tanaka is able to give weight and value to a minimalistic approach to landscape architecture.
Architecture plays a very important role in his landscapes. Tanaka cynically mirrors the meaning and purpose of technical constructions and objects and their reflection in previous styles of art. He plays with the patterns of essential perceptions of architecture, from a celestial dome in the Bush Barrow Lozenge to modern photography, which has praised the victory of man over nature.
The subjective experience of passing through Tanaka’s landscapes resonates in the viewer and effectively invites him or her to join in the artist’s romantic-objective reflections on our contemporary relationship to nature and society.

Preliminary designs released for Seattle arena
Investor Chris Hansen has released preliminary design options for the exterior of a proposed NBA arena in Seattle.
SEATTLE -- Investor Chris Hansen has released preliminary design options for the exterior of a proposed NBA arena in Seattle.
The images were released on Friday. The city's design review board is expected to go over the preliminary plans on Dec. 11.
Three different designs for the exterior were revealed, including a preferred option consisting of a rectangular building with the look of a cruise ship on the top and a large public plaza. The design firm Hansen is using on the project, 360 Architecture, writes that the preferred option emphasizes the "front-door" toward downtown Seattle and maximizes the footprint of the arena site, but may lack an "iconic presence."
Another option features an extreme oval shape encased in a glass exterior that gives a 360-degree view of the area surrounding the arena. The last option is a rectangular building with a roof line that looks like flowing waves.
All three options feature large public gathering areas.
The arena project is still undergoing environmental reviews. No construction on the $490 million project, which is expected to include $290 million in private funding, will begin until an NBA franchise is secured.

BERLIN– More than half a million dollars in grant funding will make possible several projects in Worcester County.
The Maryland Heritage Areas Authority (MHAA) announced that Beach to Bay Heritage Area received $528,000 in grants to fund projects ranging from restoration work to new exhibits. Funding will help initiatives at Furnace Town and Assateague State Park, among other projects.
“These funds allow much needed programs and projects to become a reality,” said Lisa Challenger, executive director of Beach to Bay Heritage Area. “The MHAA grant program is a great way to foster broad public-private partnerships to preserve and enhance the best of our historic sites and towns, unspoiled natural landscapes, and enduring traditions.”
In late July, the Hogan administration announced $5.1 million in awards to Maryland nonprofits, local jurisdictions and heritage organizations by the MHAA. The grant funds are meant to support heritage tourism projects and activities that attract visitors and expand economic development.
“Heritage tourism is an economic development tool that creates jobs and brings visitors to the state while making our communities better places to live and work,” Gov. Larry Hogan said. “Our administration is proud that this funding will allow for 107 projects to move forward and congratulate Maryland’s Heritage Areas and their tourism partners for their support in changing Maryland for the better.”
Locally, projects include the construction of picnic tables with storage bins at Assateague State Park, new exhibits at the historic Germantown School and an expansion of the Ocean City Life-Saving Station Museum. Furnace Town received $46,750 for renovations.
“We are delighted to be the recipient of this award,” said Claudia Nagle, executive director of Furnace Town Historic Site. “The Nassawango Iron Furnace is a vital piece of Worcester County and Lower Shore history. The award is a significant opportunity to ensure the furnace and its history are preserved for future generations.”
Nagle said the grant allocation would be used to evaluate and restore the furnace structurally, as this is the first phase of a multistep preservation plan to restore the furnace fully.
Challenger said she was thrilled to see several first-time and minority applicants receive funding in this round. She believes the projects funded will spur heritage tourism, bringing jobs and visitors to the state.
“The Beach to Bay Heritage Area contributes to our local economy by preserving and enhancing the places that attract cultural and heritage tourists,” she said.
The MHAA funding included a $100,000 Beach to Bay Heritage Area management grant, $46,750 for Furnace Town, $31,281 for Germantown School, $50,000 for Friends of Assateague State Park and $50,000 for the Ocean City Life-Saving Station’s restoration of the historic bank building. Funding was also allocated to a skipjack in Crisfield, Tyree African Methodist Episcopal Church, Chesapeake Country All American Road and an indigenous archive project for the Lower Eastern Shore.

Eleanor Zelliot, Laird Bell Professor of History (1969 - 1997) at Carleton College, Minnesota pioneered the study of the Dalit movement in India in the 1960's. Her Ambedkar's World: The Making of Babasaheb and the Dalit Movement is now published by Navayana.
This is a classic monograph on the Mahar movement in western India. It documents the social and political forces that shaped Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar (1891-1956), the greatest leader of Dalits, and the manner in which Ambedkar shaped the destiny of the Dalits of Maharashtra and India. Zelliot chronicles the movement from its origins with the first Mahar petition in 1890 till its culmination in the mass conversion to Buddhism in 1956.
She describes the defining influences of the pre-Ambedkar leadership, the Mahar army tradition, the cult of Cokhamela, the Mahad satyagraha, the temple-entry movements, the various newspapers Ambedkar edited, the Round Table Conferences, and the political parties Ambedkar founded. Using a wide array of primary sources, she offers a rich history of one of modern Indias most defining movements. In its scope and depth as a single-caste history, Ambedkars World remains as yet unsurpassed.

A technical problem I face is how do I figure out how to calculate gears from scratch in a assembly system. Meaning i have a space X between two centers and i need to gears to lock in with some ration how do I figure out Dedendum Addendum working depth and all the other stuff. I can figure out how to draw the involute curve but how can I figure out the rest. I know the number of teeth and gear rations are based on diameter of gear but whats the relation of the measurements to the center distances of two gears. Anybody have any idea how should I go about this?
Outer diameter = Pitch diameter + 2 x module
Inner diameter = Pitch diameter - 2.5 x module
whats the relation of the outer diameter and inner diameter to base circle
Draw a line through the point at which the circles touch each-other. This line should be at the pressure angle (usually 20 degrees). The line will be tangent to the base circle on each gear.
I hate to bother you Aled here is what I need basically center to center distance is 18.9 mm I need to two gear top one 32 teeth bottom one 13 teeth my problem is figuring out the size of each gear and how to make the teeth match with each other.

An exclusive ten-seater traditional Edo style sushi,
UMI opens on Hollywood Road
District: Sheung Wan, Hong Kong
How much: $1,588 per person
The best for: Date night, special occasions
Must Order: Omakase menu (chef’s choice). The menu changes weekly based on what’s in season.
Located diagonally across from Man Mo Temple, UMI’s exterior blends into the quieter side of Hollywood Road. Blink and you could miss it. When you enter, there is definitely something very subtle and calming (#zen) about the interior. With its long wooden table, muted colours and sleek design, you feel as if you stepped into a sanctuary UMI only seats 10 people at a time (just two seatings per day), making the whole experience intimate, interactive and truly a dining experience.
The word “umi” literally means “ocean” in English, which was the perfect foretaste of the bright flavours and ingredients to come. Serving up traditional Edomae sushi (freshly caught fish served with ingredients from surrounding waters), Chef Yukio Kimijima is the fourth-generation sushi chef in his family. He started his culinary career at 16 and is in his fifth decade as a chef, so you can bet you’re in good hands, mama! Reminiscent of sophisticated sushi bars in Tokyo, UMI serves up an omakase menu (every dish is the chef’s choice). Chef Kimijima curates a unique menu every week with whatever is in season and imported straight from Japan. He uses a variety of garnishes and combinations of flavours to really let the star of the show – the sushi – shine.
You know you’re off to a good start when the first dish is Black Truffle Rice with freshly shaved winter truffles from France! What followed can only be described as a crescendo of flavours and combinations I had never eaten before. From the Hirame (halibut) ceviche with Japanese lime, freshly grated Himalayan salt and hanaho (edible flower), to a delectable Abalone dish served in it’s shell to a seared Hokkaido Scallop wrapped in seaweed and finished of with a sweet chestnut.
I have to be honest mamas, I’m as basic as it gets when it comes to my preferred choices of fish (salmon and tuna all the way!) so I was a bit nervous to venture out of my comfort zone. But I’m so glad I did! What came next on the menu was a series of some of the best sushi I’ve ever tasted. You’re encouraged to eat with your hands opposed to chopsticks as the Chef Kimijima serves each piece right on the table in front of you. From Sayori (half beak) to Kurami Ebi (shrimp) to Buri (Japanese Amberjack) to Akamutsu (rosy seabass) with a smoked soy sauce glaze to the buttery Uni (sea urchin) hand roll… just to name a few! The following three pieces of sushi was definitely the highlight for me: a trio of tuna starting from the leanest (soaked in soy sauce for 5 minutes) to the fattiest cut (Oh-toro). Heaven in bitesize form, ladies. It was truly sublime.
As if I wasn’t already fully satisfied, Chef Kimijima rolled out freshly made Mochi with a Japanese strawberry inside and Matcha (green tea) Valrhona chocolate truffles to end the tasting.
If you’re looking to embark on a culinary adventure, where you can taste some of the freshest fish prepared in the age old tradition of Edo sushi, dine in an intimate setting and interact with Chef Kimijima… UMI is the place for you.
Sassy Mama Tip: UMI is only open in the evening with two seatings – 6:30pm and 8:30pm. If you want to linger a little longer, the 8:30pm seating is for you!

Shrimp and Grits
Around 30 Medium Size Shrimp 1/2 Link or 7 oz Turkey Sausage
1/4 Medium Onion 1/2 Green Pepper
Low Sodium Chicken Broth Oil
Heavy Cream (Optional)
Chop your onion.
Cut your green pepper and sausage into thin slices.
Saute in a frying pan with a small amount of heated oil.
Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
While you're sauteing the first three ingredients peel and devein your shrimp.
Once the vegetables soften and the sausage shows the first signs of browning add the shrimp.
Cook together until the shrimp just begin to pink. This can happen quickly depending on the size of your shrimp.
Add enough chicken broth to allow the mixture to float. Not too much.
I prefer a light broth so I only use chicken broth. If you prefer more of a creamy or gravy sauce add cream to the mixture.
Let simmer and thicken for a few minutes, enough time to allow the shrimp to cook throughout
Depending on the type of grits you are using allow enough time to prepare so that the grits will finish the same time as your shrimp mixture. I often will just use instant grits that only take 5 minutes to prepare. Add cubes of cheese to taste to give your grits that extra boost of flavor. A few suggestions are cheddar cheese, pepper jack, or gouda.
Serve the shrimp mixture over a bed of grits.

Three Colorado-licensed psychiatrists were disciplined by the Colorado Medical Board in April for unprofessional conduct that involved wrongly prescribing psychiatric drugs to their patients.
- Ronald R. Berges, formerly employed by a Littleton psychiatric facility, prescribed a sedative, a benzodiazepine, and narcotic pain medications to a patient despite knowing the individual had a history of substance abuse and dependence and was exhibiting drug-seeking behavior, according to a Board document. Berges also continued prescribing Valium and Fentanyl, which can cause respiratory depression, to another substance abuser and failed to verify the doses of the drugs the patient told him he was getting. The Medical Board sent Berges a letter of admonition and required him to complete a prescribing course. Berges is now practicing in Iowa.
- Jonathan B. Covey, of Colorado Springs, has been put on indefinite probation by the Medical Board for confusing the dosages of two mood stabilizers prescribed to a patient, and for his insensitivity and poor communication with another patient. In addition to probation, the Board sent Covey a letter of admonition and required him to complete an ethics program and communications course.
- Richard L. Wallingford III, of Montrose, received a letter of admonition from the Board for failing to review the hospital discharge summary of a patient with a history of addiction before re-starting her on controlled substances. The Board further stated: “Your communication, coordination of care, and indefinite use of benzodiazepines without a discussion of alternatives or a possible reduction in use is below the standard of care for a Suboxone patient with a long history of addiction to both street and prescription drugs.” Suboxone is a drug used to treat opiate addiction. The Board warned Wallingford that any further such complaints could result in the Board starting formal disciplinary proceedings against his license to practice.

What Is 3D Printing?
The possibilities of 3D printing are reshaping the way we think creatively. This technology is revolutionizing the way we solve problems by turning ideas into physical realities. What once was available only to a select few is finally accessible in your own home. Now you and your family have the opportunity to become makers of the next great things.
Ultimately, 3D printers produce real objects from digital 3D designs. These objects are limited only by your imagination, and can be anything from jewelry to gadgets for your home to an exact replica of a missing part.
How Does It Work?The Dremel 3D Idea Builder is a 3D printer that turns digital models into physical objects. Once a 3D model is designed or scanned, and converted to a .STL file, you can use Dremel 3D software to build the model on your Idea Builder. Using the 3D model as its map, the 3D printer lays down the first thin layers of a filament called PLA, a plant-based, recyclable form of plastic. The layers of filament stack up one by one until – ta da! – a complete physical object is formed.
Why Dremel 3D?As the world is discovering new uses for 3D printed objects, the only real limit is imagination and what can be designed digitally. The Dremel 3D Idea Builder gives you the capability to create custom projects for your home or office, reproduce missing parts, or take a hobby to a whole new level. As the trusted source for do-it-yourselfers, our mission is to guide you through the process of turning your own ideas into realities. We’ll be there every step of the way, from building your creation to polishing your new skills. Best of all, Dremel’s extensive community of talented Makers and experts can provide endless inspiration and support at every stage.

From Superman to the world's greatest detective.
Of course, Enola has also inherited the detective-gene and will go on adventures of her own.
The film will be based on the novels by author Nancy Springer, in a script from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child script writer Jack Thorne.
The future of Cavill in the role of Superman is much more uncertain as he's been reported to have been cut from the role.
He recently finished filming his role as the lead of Netflix series The Witcher, and won positive reviews for his villainous turn in Mission: Impossible - Fallout.
Millie Bobby Brown, meanwhile, can next be seen returning to her breakthrough role as Eleven in the new season of Stranger Things, which begins on July 4, 2019.
The new episodes will see Eleven attempt to live life as a normal teenager, but a new threat emerges with a connection to Billy (Dacre Montgomery).
Enola Holmes does not currently have a release date.
Are you excited to see Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes? Let us know in the comments below.


In spite of the rumors saying that the ZenFone 4 series may have been postponed till the fall, I have a feeling that at least one newcomer is ready for a Computex unveiling. It’s the ASUS ZenFone 4 Max, that keeps leaking and it also got certified by TENAA over the past days.
It appears in the official documents as the ASUS ZenFone 4 Max (X015D) and it stands out because it has a dual back camera. The design is quite different from the 2016 model, in that it seems like a more premium affair. The body is still made of metal, but seems somewhat sexier. Specs include a TFT 5.5 inch HD screen, an octa core 1.5 GHz CPU with unknown identity and a 4850 mAh battery.
Fast charge should be in the cards and the above mentioned CPU is either a Qualcomm or a MediaTek unit. The dual back camera features a main 13 megapixel camera and a secondary 5 MP shooter. It should offer Bokeh functionality and 2X optical zoom. The handset comes in a 3 GB RAM + 32 GB storage version, as well as a 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage model.
It runs on Android 7.0 Nougat, weighs 175 grams and measures 8.85 mm in thickness. While the ZenFone 3 Max was a so-so battery phone, but a pretty good midrange offering, we have greater battery expectations from this one.
