I bought the STM1325 to upgrade the SainSmarts Genmitsu 3018-PRO with larger 4 x 8 table and higher power spindle kits. Its plug and play, but there is a steep learning curve for the new software came with it (Mach3). I have a lot of experience with CAD, so I can easily make designs and cuts starting out. Ive made some woodworking projects and they all seem to get better than the last one. I cant wait to make more cuts to experience the capabilities of this excellent CNC.
I got my STM1325 with the mentality that I would create a small woodshop making personalized home decor, which I am still working on. Assembly was very easy enough where you can figure it out. The instruction manual offers little for troubleshooting advice, but I was able to find good answers on STYLECNCs website.
I have to say enough good about this CNC machine for wood. I was a bit apprehensive at first, but when I got the wood CNC machine, my fears disappeared. Im not an experts but every part that I know about personally was of good quality, building this machine gave me the knowledge of the mechanics of CNC if I could do it over, I would buy this CNC kit again without any hesitation at all.
Absolutely AMAZING. I am new to the CNC world and this CNC wood machine is incredible for beginners. As a Process Engineer by trade, I can totally give credible feedback in the instructions and assembly process. Perfection! Thanks for making this so easy for me to get into the CNC world.
I was looking for a cnc machine that was big enough for the projects I am working on without costing a fortune. This product is just as sturdy as it looks in the pictures. Assembly was easy enough with the video provided. It does require however that one is mechanically inclined. Whether you want to work with wood or make printed circuit boards the programs included provide a good starting point. So far I have been working with wood to get acquainted with this machine. I am certain it will work fine with printed circuit boards. Note: This CNC machine was packaged well with all pieces intact.
I bought this for to celebrate the 10th anniversary of my workshop in May 21. It was easy for the assembly and software installation. Once I got it set up it did not get much use for a few weeks, COVID-19 in March intervened, I started seriously in April with cabinets making. I am very happy with my purchase does a nice job, and will certainly keep me a good attitude during Coronavirus. In all professinal wood CNC machines, and I had fantastic after-sales service and support from STYLECNC.
Потрясающий фрезерный станок с ЧПУ, все работы выполняются автоматически с высокой скоростью и высоким качеством, я купил станок для изготовления деревянных дверей, и меня сильно удивил.
This is my first overseas buying for a new CNC router machine, it was a great experience, especially the price is much more cheaper than the used CNC router with the same configurations in German, and the 4x8 table size is very suitable for my home door production.
Wife got me this gift for my birthday. Ive used it a couple times and works great. I love it. Ive wanted a CNC router with 4x8 table kit for a long time and this one does not disappoint.

Can’t edit (copy, move, etc.) files while filtering
Kyle Sherman 5 years ago in General • updated by Alexander Blach (Developer) 5 years ago • 2
I love the file filtering feature, but I want to do that and then select a file to copy or move. However, once I start filtering, the option to Edit is gone. It would be great to have a way to do both at the same time. Seems like the edit button would likely need to move to a different location.
Customer support service by UserEcho
Another way to do it would be to just have an edit button for the currently opened file, which I think would be a good addition regardless. That would solve the problem and would likely be simpler to design with limited screen real estate.
Good point, this could certainly be improved.

Extending the Reach of Health Services
One year after Wenchuan earthquake
In mid-March 2009, Zhang Chengmei, 26, watches her premature baby resting in an incubator that UNICEF provided to Qingchuan Maternal and Child Care Centre. UNICEF has delivered lifesaving medical equipment and supplies to the earthquake zone.
Zhang touches her baby`s face, palms, and feet, as a skilled nurse looks on. Within a few days, Zhang will be able to take the newborn home and name her. "Her whole life lies ahead. I hope she accomplishes more than us."
The ruins of a collapsed hospital in Mianyang City of Sichuan Province. The devastating earthquake that hit southwest China`s Sichuan Province on 12 May 2008 left more than 88,000 people dead or missing, nearly 400,000 injured, and 5 million homeless.
In the aftermath of the disaster, UNICEF rushed 86 tons of medical supplies to meet the needs of 1.4 million people for 3 months. On 31 May 2008, some of the health kits were delivered to Dujiangyan of Sichuan Province.
On 31 May 2008, health workers unpack a UNICEF emergency health kit at a temporary hospital in Dujiangyan. The kits have been distributed to 13 counties in Sichuan that were worst affected by the earthquake.
On 31 May 2008, a doctor examines a baby being held by his mother at a temporary hospital established in Dujiangyan of Sichuan Province.
On 31 May 2008, a boy sits in a tent clinic in Dujiangyan of Sichuan Province. Working with the Ministry of Health, UNICEF has provided ambulances, medicine, equipment, and technical support to clinics across the quake zone.
In mid-March 2009, Liu Ju holds her baby in front of the UNICEF-provided ambulance where she gave birth ten days earlier. Her home is about 20 kilometres away from the hospital in Anxian County, Sichuan Province.
In mid-March 2009, a doctor checks a premature baby girl inside a UNICEF-provided incubator at Qingchuan County Maternal and Child Care Centre, Sichuan Province. UNICEF has been working with local health authorities to rehabilitate healthcare services.
In mid-March 2009, a doctor uses a UNICEF-provided foetal heartbeat detector to inspect 8-months-pregnant Zhang Yaping at Qingchuan Maternal and Child Care Centre. Zhang is expecting a new baby, after losing her child in the earthquake.
In mid-March, a doctor measures the height and weight of 4-month-old boy Sun Minguo. Minguo was in critical condition at birth, but doctors saved his life with UNICEF-provided emergency neonatal care equipment. Now, he is a healthy baby.
A doctor checks the development of 45-day-old Gao Jingting at Qingchuan County Maternal and Child Care Centre, Sichuan Province. The baby has been breastfed since birth. UNICEF is supporting local authorities to promote breastfeeding in the quake zone.
Gao Jingting sleeps in her mother's arms after her routine health check. She is 4.5 kg in weight and 53 cm in height. The mother, Feng Li, says her baby loves listening to music.
"I hope she becomes a musician."

Geneva gets revenge on St. Charles North, finishes 2nd in DuKane
Payback time arrived for Geneva on Tuesday night.
Almost a month ago, the Vikings suffered a tough seven-point road loss to St. Charles North. The defeat stung the Vikings for many reasons, including in the DuKane Conference race.
The Vikings committed turnovers at an alarming rate, finishing with 25 turnovers to snap their historic 34-game conference winning streak.
In the rematch, the Vikings struggled with early turnovers – six giveaways in the first quarter – and offensive flow but managed to recover in the second quarter to gain a measure of revenge.
Geneva sophomore guard Keira McCann jumpstarted the turnaround, drilling 3-pointers from all around the circle to finish with a career-high five 3-pointers for 16 points and Leah Palmer added a game-high 24 points in a 49-39 victory over St. Charles North.
“We did a good job of driving and kicking tonight,” McCann said. “The first time we had trouble with that, so to come out and do that this game and everyone was on, it was very good.”
Palmer, a four-year varsity starter, put her typical big-game stamp on Geneva’s comeback win.
“That first game definitely showed our growth from throughout the season, to be able to handle their press and length very well,” Palmer said. “We had a bunch of players step up tonight, so I’m really proud of how everybody handled that adversity and came back and fought hard. It’s been a great season. I hope we can continue it to the postseason.”
Palmer closed out her home career with a momentum-building victory for the playoffs, rising above a rough first quarter to hit threes 3s and displayed toughness in the post. But McCann, a first-year varsity player, was the X-factor in the Vikings’ victory.
“We didn’t get into detail on how we played the last time, which might have helped us a little bit,” Geneva coach Sarah Meadows said. “I’m really proud of our kids. They really showed up tonight and did a nice job and beat a really good team. They are going to have a nice run, and hopefully we play them again.
“Keira has stepped up in some big situations for us, and she played lights-out tonight for sure. Leah is a very good basketball player. I’m happy for her. She’s had a great career here. I’m super proud of her.”
Both teams would certainly love a rematch in the playoffs.
The Vikings (20-8, 12-2) jumped ahead of the North Stars (25-4, 11-3) in the conference standings to finish the regular season in second place, plus evened up the season series.
The final regular season game for both teams was a good tune-up for the Class 4A playoffs.
The North Stars were awarded the No. 2 seed in the Batavia sectional, opening up against the winner of Saturday’s quarterfinal game between Addison Trail and Proviso West on Monday in a Lake Park regional semifinal.
The Vikings, a No. 3 seed, start the playoffs against No. 15-seed Elk Grove on Monday in a Glenbard West regional semifinal. If both teams win their regional, they will meet up in a Batavia sectional semifinal on Feb. 20.
McCann helped open up the floor on offense, finding the vulnerable spots in St. Charles North’s zone defense to help the Vikings build a double-digit lead early in the third quarter. McCann finished with five points in the previous meeting with the North Stars.
“I had a rough night the last time,” McCann said. “The past few games have been off for me, and also the warmups. To come out and shoot well was very good to see. The team played great today. Everyone did a good job.”
The North Stars dropped to third place in the conference, with Laney Stark leading the team with 10 points. Katrina Stack had nine points and Elle Fuhr added eight.
“They shot the ball very well tonight,” St. Charles North coach Mike Tomczak said. “I think a number of their shots were contested. We didn’t close out hard enough. When you see a couple of girls get hot early, that should (force) us to closing out even harder and we didn’t do that. We could potentially see them down the road again. Defensively, we’ve been doing a nice job this year. We hope this will give us a chance to get better…We can learn from this, and the film will be valuable. I’m excited for this group. We couldn’t throw one in the ocean tonight, so hopefully we will leave that behind.”

Billionaire Gautam Adani-led Adani Group said that the Income Tax Department's provisional attachment of equity shares of NDTV (New Delhi Television Ltd) held by RRPR Holding does not need any prior approval for exercise of warrants.
"It is clear that the RRPR letter lacks bona fides and has no merit or basis either in law or in fact and is misconceived," Adani Enterprises says in an exchange filing.
The income tax orders only apply to the shares of NDTV held by RRPR and in no manner restrict RRPR from completing the formalities in relation to allotment of equity shares to VCPL on exercise of the warrants, the filing says.
Founded by Radhika and Prannoy Roy, RRPR Holding is the promoter-owned company that owns 29.18% of NDTV.
Vishvapradhan Commercial Pvt Ltd (VCPL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani Group's AMG Media Networks, had entered into a loan agreement with NDTV founders Radhika and Prannoy Roy in 2009-10.
VCPL, which issued a warrant exercise notice to NDTV on August 23, denies that the steps required to be taken by RRPR in terms of the warrant conversion notice require any prior approval from the assessing officer.
"The IT orders have been issued against RRPR only and for the purpose of securing RRPR's continued ownership over the said NDTV shares. The IT orders have not been issued against Mr. Prannoy Roy and Mrs. Radhika Roy individually and do not relate to their equity ownership in RRPR," the Adani-owned entity says.
The suggestion that the Roys will need prior approval of the assessing officer under Section 281 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 is wholly misconceived and has no basis, the conglomerate says. "It is clear that RRPR will remain the absolute owner of the said NDTV shares even after RRPR has completed the steps required under the notice and hence, the question of any prior approval of the assessing officer does not arise."
The Adani group further alleged that the RRPR letter has been issued with the intent to further inordinately delay and seek to justify RRPR's default in compliance with its obligation as set out in the notice and completing the formal steps of allotment of equity shares of RRPR to VCPL.
Adani Group subsidiary VCPL called upon RRPR to withdraw its letter immediately and "cease and desist from repeating the misconceived and misleading statements, suggestions, inferences and assertions made by RRPR in the RRPR letter."
VCPL told RRPR to take all necessary steps and perform its obligations as specified in its earlier notice without any further delay.
RRPR Holding has also written a letter to capital markets regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), asking it to determine whether its previous order restricts conversion of warrants issued to VCPL into equity shares of the news broadcaster.
Meanwhile, shares of NDTV jumped 5% on Friday to cross the ₹500 mark for the first time. The stock rose 5% to ₹519.80 on the National Stock Exchange (NSE).

An enlightening journey of self discovery.
Moustaches and Motorcycles. Henry Crew is riding a Ducati Scrambler around the world with a couple of goals in mind. One is to be the youngest person to ride a motorcycle around the world and the other is to create awareness for the Movember Foundation. To better understand why you should grow a moustache in November, we spoke with Ben Bowers in the UK.
When Mark lost his business, and then eleven days later his wife died, he made a decision to go on a motorcycle trip around the world. Riding a Triumph Rocket X, the largest capacity motorcycle in the world, was definitely a conversation piece and an ice breaker. And that was good, because he had some messages he wanted to share with people he met along the way. He made connections, new friends and now his life is taking a new direction.
Kevin Chow is a planner. And for years he planned to go on a motorcycle trip around the world. He rode south from Canada in to Mexico and beyond to Ushuaia, and speaking little to no Spanish he even managed to communicate with the locals and to get through some hairy road blocks. And just two months in to his trip, Kevin found that even the most well laid plans can change, and being flexible is the best plan.
When seasoned rider, Sue Hollis, left on her first long distance motorcycle trip, she had no idea if she would find the answers she was looking for. Riding in the United States and Canada, through deserts and over mountains, in sunshine and torrential downpours, she made life changing connections and discovered things about herself that would change the way she lives.

Riding small motorcycles, called piki pikis in Swahili, they were hooked on travel and never looked back. A lot of travel tips packed in to this episode, Michnus & Elsebie inspire and share their experiences with moto travellers.
A few years ago while out on a fishing and camping trip, David and Em Morieson stumbled on the Adventure Film Festival in Australia. And they were so inspired by a couple of travellers there, that on that same day, they made the decision to go on a long distance motorcycle trip. A few years later, they rented out their house, quit their jobs and headed for South America.
A few weeks ago, motorcycle traveller Ben King disappeared off the social media radar. There was no word of him on Instagram or Facebook. And riders in the community were starting to wonder what happened to Ben. And then, two weeks ago, Ben appeared again with a Facebook post. What happened to Ben? From Lahore in Pakistan, Ben tells us about what he calls "the CRAZIEST month of my entire life!!!".
There’s something about exploring remote places, especially those which haven’t been overrun by the regular tourist crowds. Connections are made with locals who share their stories and lives. And wild and unknown destinations are discovered. In this episode of ARR, Antonia Bolingbroke-Kent talks about riding the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Vietnam and her motorcycle trip in the far North-East corner of India, in the state of Arunachal Pradesh. Thrilling adventures in far off places.
When it comes to motorcycle travel, some riders prefer to go it alone, some prefer group travel, or riding with a partner or friend. Probably most riders enjoy the company of other riders for a variety of reasons. But, there are many who travel solo by choice. In this episode, Graham Field, motorcycle adventure traveller and author, talks about his experience with solo travel, and the pros and cons of it.
Just about everything you need to know about planning a motorcycle trip, close to home or abroad. Resources to help plan your trip, how to get in touch with local riders, camping equipment, shipping your bike, budgeting and more.

For Jackie Heyen, the road is her home, but hitting the road wasn’t as easy as throwing a sleeping bag on the back of her bike because she’s not into sleeping on the ground, but Jackie’s got it all figured out. And Tom Medema from Rally for Rangers rides the Mongolian Steppe while helping park rangers do their job.
Just four months after Maryna got her motorcycle license, she met Paul at a motorcycle meet. After months of trying to get Maryna to go on a date with him, telling her to just say yes, she finally relented. Since then, Paul has convinced Maryna to just say yes to almost anything. Motorcycles brought them together, and just saying yes has brought new adventure in to their lives, as they travel around the world.
We’ve all heard of travelling dogs, in sidecars or carriers on motorcycles, but a cat? While on a motorcycle trip in Morocco, Martin Klauka met up with a stray cat. Since that day, Martin and his cat, Mogli, have been together, and Mogli has a first class seat in the tank bag of Martin’s motorcycle. And Guglatech has an innovative fuel filter that is a must have for off-road adventure travellers.
Steph Jeavons left the Ace Cafe in London, UK in March 2014 on her Honda CRF 250L. And 4 years later, on a cold and snow-patched day in March 2018, she completed her trip when she arrived back at the Ace Cafe. Due to health challenges and more, what was supposed to be a three year journey ended up being four.
Janelle Kaczmarzewski describes herself as an anti-wildlife trafficking motorcycle journalist and a motorcycle gypsy. Passionate about wildlife, she travels to far off places on her motorcycle educating and informing people about illegal animal poaching and trafficking.
Taking slow travel to an unbelievable level, this British motorcyclist somehow got sidetracked and didn’t get home for over a decade. With no travel plan in place, he experienced the world with no set schedule or direction. And an event that you don’t want to miss, that inspires overland travel, educates in the necessary skills and resources, with a motivating and informative trade show for explorers from all walks of life.
The Ace Cafe is a place for petrolheads, people who love the smell of gasoline and oil, motorbikes and cars, to hang out and talk to each other, to swap ideas, to show their vehicles, to enjoy themselves, sit down, have a meal and a cup of coffee with like minded people. The story behind the Ace Cafe is one of setbacks and resurrection, and is best told by the person who has kept the legend alive for motorcyclists around the world, Mark Wilsmore.
While on a motorcycle trip to Africa, Claire Elsdon saw how the communities were lacking in motorcycle maintenance skills, which were needed for vital services. In a bold move, Claire moved to Mwanza, Tanzania in 2016 to set up Africa’s First Women’s Motorcycle Maintenance Workshop, called Pikilily. This week, Graham Field, motorcycle author, was on hand to let us know what he was getting up to at the motorcycle shop.

Some keto cookies or a keto brownie can certainly be delicious, but if you’re looking for a dessert that’s a little more interesting, then you have to try this chocolate chia pudding! I love chia seeds for a number of reasons. They’re high in antioxidants, vitamins such as calcium, potassium and magnesium, Omega-3 ALA, dietary fiber and even protein. So, while this dish feels like a dessert, you’re receiving plenty of necessary nutrients. Enjoy guilty-free!
Not sure what foods you should eat on the keto diet? This keto food list will get you started. By depriving your body of glucose, the high-fat, low-carb ketogenic diet shifts your body into ketosis, a state of burning fat instead of sugar for energy. Take the guesswork out of eating keto, and follow this complete keto diet food list to start dropping weight and feel amazing.
This was delicious! It will be my new go to easy dinner from now on. I did make a couple of changes though. I swapped the pickles out for jalapenos, doubled the bacon, and added a dollop of Primal Kitchens chipotle lime mayo on top of my serving along with some hot sauce and it was perfect! It reminded me a lot of In-n-Outs animal style cheeseburger.

This may require a lifestyle change for many families, so we advise families who are interested in the diet to learn more by reading some of our excellent printed resources and to talk to each person who regularly cares for the child to make sure there is agreement to try the diet. We usually encourage an appointment with one of our epileptologists to confirm that the diet is right for your child, and then an appointment with our ketogenic diet team to go over more of the details.
So rather than giving one-size-fits-all dietary advice or weaponizing the word “balanced” it might be better if the medical community suggested that there are Individual differences that need to be considered. This might also help those lay folk who have had success with one dietary lifestyle or another also realize that what’s valid for them may not be good advice for others.

Most people have probably heard of the Atkins diet, which is a pretty general take on ketogenic eating. Wildly popular in the 70s and again in the 90s, Atkins and the low-carb diet are one of the best ways to lose weight. In fact, one of the biggest benefits to low carb eating is that it is a very efficient way to lose weight without much effort. The combination of filling meals that reduce overeating and the fact that, when you’re in ketosis your body burns stored fat for energy makes this an ideal diet for people whose primary goal is fat loss.
Carbohydrates have been linked to this skin condition, so cutting down on them may help. And the drop in insulin that a ketogenic diet can trigger may also help stop acne breakouts. (Insulin can cause your body to make other hormones that bring on outbreaks.) Still, more research is needed to determine exactly how much effect, if any, the diet actually has on acne.
Forget the heavy casserole recipes and try this low-carb pot pie tonight! Nothing says comfort food like a chicken pot pie. This low-carb pot pie recipe skips the traditional gluten-filled dough of chicken pot pies and replaces it with cauliflower for a more low-carb option. I simply suggest switching out the cornstarch with arrowroot or tapioca starch.
One meta-analysis18 incorporating data from 447 participants found that low-carbohydrate diets not only helped individuals lose weight, but also improved their cholesterol. And another meta-analysis,19 citing 17 clinical trials, found that low-carb diets protected against major cardiovascular risk factors. A third study20 including 119 participants found that low-carbohydrate dieters had lower cholesterol than low-fat dieters after one year.
Of the 1,580 survey participants, more than half reported staying on a low-carb diet for at least one year, and 34% reported more than two years. Further, those on the diet for two years or more said that they had largely maintained their weight loss. This is a self-selected sample, with an obvious bias for people who are experiencing success (dieters are less inclined to report on their failures). However, this data does show that long-term adherence is possible.
As I wrote in op-eds for the Wall Street Journal61 and Medscape,62 the Lancet Public Health study is based on very thin data. The questionnaire underlying the report left out questions regarding popular foods, such as pizza and energy bars, and did not consider alcohol consumption. Moreover, the “low-carb” diet group in this study included people eating up to 37% of calories as carbohydrates—not low-carb according to the latest science. Ultimately, this is the kind of data that can show association but not establish causation, which means it is the kind of data one can use to generate hypotheses but not prove them. This kind of data would never be considered sufficient to approve a drug, for instance. The same standards should be applied to diet. Quite a few researchers, including myself, had our critiques published in Lancet Public Health.63 The authors replied but did not respond to most of the criticisms.
Con: Results can vary depending on how much fluid you drink. By drinking more water, you dilute the concentration of ketones in the urine and thus a lower level of ketones will be detected on the strips. The strips don’t show a precise ketone level. Finally, and most importantly, as you become increasingly keto-adapted and your body reabsorbs ketones from the urine, urine strips may become unreliable, even if you’re in ketosis.

Are you are one of those people who always see's the glass half empty? If yes, know that you may be passing this pessimism to your children. Much like a decidedly negative or bullying boss can set the tone for an unhappy office atmosphere, you or your spouse may be setting a similar tone for your home. This is not to say you must happy at all times, but your habitual moodiness, anger, worry and visible unhappiness can affect those around you. If you have ever said “I hate that I am so…” sadly your child may be saddled with the same unhealthy attitude or habit that you see in yourself, be it negativity, bullying or pessimism. Children often mirror what they see their parents do or say. They do what you teach them by your own actions or attitude.
Your little one used to be happy, bubbly and super positive, why are you seeing a turn around? While you cannot dismiss bullying as the problem, as it can be very real. The change you are seeing may be an offshoot of your own attitude or the result of the company your child is keeping; it is up to you to know who your child’s friends are. Take time to engage the friend in a conversation or listen to one that is between the friend and your child. Do you hear a lot of negativity or bullying? If yes, nip it before it becomes a problem. But what do if your own little precious is the one sprouting negativity and such? As television’s Judge Joe Brown say’s “Man up” and take appropriate action to correct this behavior. And don't forget check your own attitude while you at it.
Attitudes can be infectious, if you are in the company of a negative person, you may not become negative but you may find yourself becoming depressed or defensive. Teach your child to speak up in a positive non-aggressive way, remember children will mirror their parents action. I recall that my girlfriend who was always quietly able to take care of herself, worried that her daughter allowed other children to take advantage of her. One day, while we were sitting on her porch watching the kids jumping rope, one child, we will call her Miss Bossy, announced in an authoritative voice that my friend’s daughter would be last to use the rope. No reason was given except this child seemed to be the easiest to push around or be bullied. My friend’s eye got wide, I knew she was ready to do her “angry mommy” thing. Before she could do or say anything, her daughter spoke in a soft voice, without anger or a negative reaction--just a statement of fact, “It’s my rope.” There was no argument from Miss Bossy who simply said “Okay, it’s your turn now.” That was almost 30 years ago and it still resonates in my mind as such a telling moment and such homage to my friend.

Last month, our AmeriCorps members Tim Erkel, Kelly Bandman and Brent Suski joined forces with more than 60 other AmeriCorps members serving Rebuilding Together affiliates across the country to provide critical repairs for veterans and seniors in need in honor of the Martin Luther King Day of Service. They spent a week repairing nine homes in the Carverdale-Edwards-South Creston Hills (The C-E-C triangle) area of Oklahoma City with the help of area high school students and community members.
Brent said of his experience, “I had an amazing time in Oklahoma City. It was great to have the opportunity to lead and work alongside my fellow CapacityCorps members. Our homeowner, Ms. Anderson, was a delight! While she had gone through some tough times, including battling breast cancer, she was always extremely happy and inviting which made for a great experience. We had a daunting scope of work, but my team tackled it with vigor. I am happy to say that we completely finished everything that we were tasked to do, and leaving Ms. Anderson with a fresh interior and a completely redone exterior.”
Tim was interviewed by a local Oklahoma City TV station about his experience. Tim’s interview is available here.
This work week was hosted by Rebuilding Together Oklahoma City (OKC). Rebuilding Together CapacityCorps is a National Direct AmeriCorps program with 65 full-time members serving at 35 local affiliates in 20 states. Rebuilding Together AmeriCorps members build the capacity of grassroots Rebuilding Together programs so that they become sustainable, effective and efficient in helping additional low-income homeowners in need.

This book provides an in-depth analysis of the 'technocratic shift' in ministerial recruitment, measuring its extent and variations over time in fourteen European countries. It addresses the question: who governs in European democratic regimes? Just a few decades ago, the answer would have been straightforward: party-men and (fewer) party-women. More recently, however, and in varying degrees across Europe, a greater proportion of non-politicians or experts have been recruited to government, as exemplified by the 2017 election of Emmanuel Macron to the French Presidency. These experts, frequently labelled "technocrats", increasingly occupy key executive positions and have emerged as powerful actors in the decision-making process. This edited collection explores the contemporary debates surrounding the relationship between technocracy, democracy and political leadership, and will appeal to scholars and advanced students interested in these fields.

SAN DIEGO — Press Conference by San Diego County Fair CEO, Tim Fennell and Deputy General Manger, Katie Mueller:
A two-year-old boy has died after contracting E. coli linked to the San Diego County Fair, according to the County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency.
“Our hearts, our prayers, our thoughts go out to the family and friends of this child,” said San Diego County Fair CEO Tim Fennell.
Three other cases were also confirmed by HHSA. The ages of the children range from 2 to 13 years of age.
- The first case was a 13-year-old girl who attended the fair on June 8th and started showing symptoms on June 10th.
- The second case was an 11-year-old girl who attended the fair twice, once on June 8th and again on June 12th. She started showing symptoms on June 12th
- The third case was a 9-year-old boy who attended the fair on on June 13th and started showing symptoms on June 16th.
- The fourth and final case was the case of the 2-year-old boy who passed away. He attended the fair on June 15th, started showing symptoms on June 19th and tragically passed away on June 24th.
The first three cases did not require hospitalization, but the two-year-old who was hospitalized died from a complication of the disease. Authorities say young kids and older people are most susceptible to the bacteria due to weaker immune systems.
Most people with an E. coli infection start feeling sick three to four days after eating or drinking something containing the bacteria. But illnesses can start between one to 10 days after exposure. Symptoms can include severe stomach cramps, watery or bloody diarrhea and vomiting.
Symptoms can occur with or without a fever.
The source of the E. coli bacteria is under investigation, but all children had a report of visiting the animal areas or the petting zoo, or had other animal contact at the San Diego Fair.
As a result, San Diego County Fair officials have closed public access to all animal areas, including the petting zoo. They plan to completely sanitize all buildings that housed animals once the animals are gone.
"Safety is and will continue to be our number one priority," said Katie Mueller, San Diego County Fair Deputy General Manger.
During their press conference Friday night, fair officials confirmed that all food facilities had been re-inspected and no link was found the cases involving the children. In addition there were no connection to food vendors reported by any of the children.
County fair officials said the most important step people should take to help prevent an infection is to practice good hand washing hygiene.
Always wash hands thoroughly after contact with animals or their environments (at farms, petting zoos, fairs, even your own backyard).
Everyone, especially young children, older individuals, and people with weakened immune systems, should wash their hands before eating or drinking.
HHSA said these cases are of Shiga Toxin E. coli and are the same strain as the one that swept through a San Diego military base in 2017. It is also the same that caused the romaine lettuce scare in 2018.
The San Diego County Fair plans to resume their animal interactions as normal when they open next year.
The fair will remain open until July 4th.


ISTANBUL -- A volunteer paramilitary branch of Iran's Revolutionary Guard will run 2,000 child care centers, or 25 percent of all such facilities in the country, the International Campaign For Human Rights in Iran, an activist group, said Thursday. The Iranian Welfare Organization gave the Basij force, the Revolutionary Guard group that consists of young Iranian volunteers, permission to take over the child care centers to improve their quality, an organization official told journalists in Tehran last month.
Human rights organizations say large numbers of day care centers have been transferred to the Revolutionary Guards and the Basij militia forces in recent years as a way for the government to establish strict rules that reflect Muslim values, including requiring young females to wear hijabs to school.
“Ninety percent of our youth have distanced themselves from Islam today by virtue of our political conduct. We cannot say things that only a specific group would approve. You and I are responsible for these Shia Muslims who are escaping the religious by virtue of my or your conduct, the indifference, and the lack of accountability of those who have been trusted with responsibility,” Tehran’s Deputy Governor-Political Affairs Seyed Shahabeddin Chavoshi reportedly said, while addressing a group of city council members in Malard, outside of Tehran, last week.
The Basij force has for years criticized the Ministry of Education for failing to implement Islamic values.
“Many daycare centers in the country are promoters of Western culture, and are not teaching the children the truth about the religion of Islam and our culture," Mohammed Raza Naghdi, the commander of the Basij force, said in 2013, according to the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran.
The Iranian parliament is considering passing a bill, Plan to Promote Virtue and Prevent Vice, that would give the Basij force the mandate to force all Iranian women to wear the hijab in school. Iran's Guardian Council, a group that votes on bills and decides if they should become law, approved the plan on April 22, the Mehr News Agency reported.
“In the short run, putting such unlimited tools in the hands of individuals who are not legally accountable may lead to creating fear and terror in society; but over the long run, the nation will certainly not be able to cope with it psychologically," human rights lawyer Nasrin Sotoudeh said in an interview with International Campaign For Human Rights in Iran. "Intensifying such an atmosphere and enforcing such plans in the society could lead to wider crises which we should prevent now."
Religious leaders in Iran have pressed Iran’s President Hasan Rouhani to allow police to enforce strict Islamic dress codes but, in a speech last week, Rouhani said, according to several local news outlets, that officers are meant to carry “handcuffs and pistols,” not to act like clergy.
Teachers in schools, universities and in seminaries have a mission to “teach, spread and explain Islam," Rouhani said. "But you can’t just tell anyone to interpret Islam."

EL CENTRO â€“ The Imperial County Sheriffâ€™s office Tuesday announced the arrest of nine individuals resulting from an extensive multi-agency operation targeting Internet sex crimes against children. Charges included luring a minor for sexual exploitation, attempting to commit sexual conduct with a minor under 14, and attempting to commit molestation of a minor under 14.
â€œThis has been a very successful operation,” said Raymond Loera, ICSO Sheriff-Coroner, “and the culmination of an intense nine-day operation that lead to the arrest of nine individuals involving child exploitation with the use of the Internet.â€
The Imperial County Sheriffâ€™s Office, in collaboration with Homeland Security Investigations, the El Centro Police Department, the United States Marshals Service, the United States Border Patrol, the Escondido Police Department, and the Imperial County District Attorneyâ€™s Office, all joined together to conduct the anti-child exploitation operation dubbed â€œDesert Guardianâ€ that took approximately three weeks.
â€œThis is an example of the close working relationship between law enforcement agencies, not only in Imperial County, but also San Diego County and Federal Law Enforcement,â€ said Loera. â€œWe cannot be as effective working alone. We are all committed to public safety, in particular this operation (Desert Guardian), involving the most vulnerable and important part of our communityâ€¦ our children.â€
Those arrested on suspicion of sexual exploitation of children included six El Centro residents, Oscar M. Ortiz, Juan Reyes EscareÃ±o, Efe Erukanure, Manuel Elias, Erik Ramirez and Braulio Paz Carillo; Imperial resident Jonathan Carillo; San Diego resident Jesus Echeverria and Canadian, Darryl Bunney.
â€œThis operation definitely impacted our community,â€ said Sgt. Jimmy Duran, ICSO South County Investigations. Â â€œThis is the place where we live, where our children grow and where our families go about their business. This definitely made an impact in Imperial County.â€
According to Sgt. Duran, all nine cases have been filed with the Imperial County District Attorneyâ€™s Office. At this time, all arrestees are under custody with the exception of Efe Erukanure, who posted bail.
â€œAll nine individuals were charged with luring a minor for sexual exploitation, attempting to commit sexual conduct with a minor under 14, and attempting to commit molestation of a minor under 14 with the exception of Erik Ramirez who faces additional charges for resisting arrest and Braulio Paz Carillo with resisting arrest and possession of methamphetamine,â€ said Sgt. Duran.
According to Sgt. Duran, no victims have been identified at this time and the media source utilized for the acts cannot be disclosed at the time.
On March 1, the Imperial County Board of Supervisors approved $91,929 in funding for the remainder of the 2015-2016 fiscal year to hire one Deputy District Attorney, one District Attorney Investigator and one Investigative Assistant to focus solely on human exploitation cases including crimes against children, human trafficking, and commercial sexual exploitation.
According to Imperial County District Attorney Gilbert Otero, to date, two attorneys have been hired and one additional hiring is in the process.
â€œWe should have our staff hired in the next few weeks,â€ said Otero. â€œWe are want to be at Homeland Security Investigations as soon as possible.â€
By law, persons convicted of specified sex crimes are required to register as sex offenders with a local law enforcement agency. Prior to release from prison, jail, a mental hospital, or placed on probation, sex offenders are notified in writing of their duty to register, and a copy of the notification form is forwarded to the Department of Justice (DOJ). When a sex offender is released into the community, the agency forwards the registration information to DOJ.
All participating agencies are members of the San Diego Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, which is dedicated to help state and local law enforcement agencies to develop an effective response to technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and Internet crimes against children.

I was completely wrapped up in this while I was reading it. I have enough experience with dysfunctional families that a lot of it rang really true - especially the narrator's hero worship of her dad and inability to really blame him for anything.
I think it's great that she was able to see her upbringing without the apparent bitterness and anger that would have been so easy to express in this book. At the same time, by the end, I was getting tired of the apparent attitude that her parents were not to blame for anything because they were just doing what they did (again, especially wonderful dad, who always loved her, and on and on) - while, at the same time, castigating herself for letting down her youngest sister and not spending enough time taking care of her.
I understand that it's easier to forgive others than oneself, but by the end of the book, I was starting to get annoyed at the author, instead of admiring her for getting beyond her horrendous upbringing.

The first thing that drew me to this book was the forbidden romance of an angel and a demon - it blurs the lines between good and evil, and it gives a realistic portrayal of love that can be glossed over a lot in other books. Not to mention the hot guy on the cover, let's not forget him and his tormented, broody pose. I have heard a lot about Juliette Cross in the past, but this is the first book I have read by her. Although it took a bit to really understand the world I was diving into, it was written in a way that works whether or not you've read previous books. The hero, Dommiel, has shown up before in other books, so I imagine you, as a reader, would enjoy him even more if you already have a bit of the backstory. But I am impatient and picky about what books I read, and this is the one I wanted. So I read it, previous books be damned. :)
High demon Dommiel is a merc for hire, straddling the line between the angels and demons, he helps those who give him enough incentive. Whether they be demon or angel makes little difference. But when a favor is called in requiring him to be saddled with a blue-winged angel named Anya, his patience is pushed to the limits, for here is one angel who could destroy him. Anya is desperate, bitten by a demon prince and slowly being consumed by his essence, she is in danger of becoming a slave. Her only hope is to find the archangel Uriel and have him heal her, but in order to do so, she needs the help of a demon. As they travel together, their prejudices towards each other begin to diminish, and their passion rapidly gains strength. If they surrender to their desires, it could lead to their doom - or their salvation.
Dommiel is basically the bad boy of every girl's wet dream. Don't make that face - read the book and you'll agree. He's a demon, so obviously he has done some things that would keep you up at night, but he is also kind to animals, saves children, and stands up to his own kind when it's right. I wouldn't want to take him home to mom and dad, but I love living vicariously through Anya. Anya was a really interesting character to read about, because she's a 400-year-old virgin who desires Dommiel but is fighting it desperately. She doesn't truly know what she's missing, but her feminine instincts tell her that it would be SO good. I loved the angst between them, and it's always nice in these sorts of romances when both characters really start to learn about each other and find things in common. Even though they both know a relationship could be disastrous, they can't help falling in love. It was both hot and sweet at the same time, and I couldn't get enough. I finished reading this at about 1 in the morning, that's how addicted I was.
Juliette Cross has got me hooked now! I can't wait to read the next book in the series and get some more demon and angel excitement. Please, can I have some more?

Game Changers lunchtime Technology Talk webinar (innovation in the nuclear industry)
Featuring Unitive’s X-ray imaging system for use in harsh environments & Arktis Radiation Detectors’ fast neutron detection for waste assay
Game Changers Technology Talks are aimed at anyone who is interested in technical innovation in the nuclear industry, learning about cutting-edge research developments and understanding how the Game Changers programme helps solve challenges which can’t be met with off the shelf solutions.
October’s webinar will feature:
Pushing the limits of X-ray detection – Phil Marsden, Unitive Design
Seeing inside pipes and vessels is critical for verification in asset management and at the end of an asset’s life for safe and effective decommissioning. The Unitive team have applied their deep knowledge of X-ray systems and state-of-the-art detectors to push liquor and solid detection to its limit. Detecting and quantifying low-Z materials in high radiation flux environments through an inch of stainless steel is challenging, but possible.
In this talk, Phil will present the challenges, the technology and the solutions for the lowest limit of detection. He will also discuss the flexibility of the system and how it can be deployed on a range of gantries, rails and (potentially) autonomous vehicles.
A next generation waste drum assay system – Ulisse Gendotti and Paolo Tancioni, Arktis Radiation Detectors Ltd
There are a wide range of waste packages containing a variety of materials on the Sellafield site which must be assayed to help determine the most appropriate and cost-effective waste disposal routes. Optimized waste management is central to the Sellafield decommissioning mission and in this talk, Ulisse and Paolo will present an innovative neutron waste assay system with inherent cost, weight and performance advantages over existing neutron detection systems.
The Waste Assay Neutron Detection System (WANDS) relies on pressurized helium-4 gas scintillation. WANDS can detect fission neutrons without the need for any bulky moderation assembly while performing energy discrimination during a pulsed neutron interrogation. This system can quantify fissile radionuclides below the Intermediate Level Waste/Low Level Waste threshold, avoiding the over-classification of waste.
The sensitivity and portability of WANDS represents a significant improvement with respect to existing helium-3 based neutron detection technologies.


EL DORADO, Ark. - 2018 April 23
Twenty-four bottles of Promethazine, 1,000 Xanax bars, 2,500 Ecstasy pills, a 22 pound brick of marijuana, a gun and cash.
It carries the street value of more than $ 41,000.
It was all the part of a huge drug bust netted when El Dorado Police made a traffic stop that was anything but routine.
Officers say 34-year-old Derrick Rogers is the man behind the crime.
They stopped him on Highway 82 west right outside of El Dorado around 10:00 Sunday night.
"They observed a vehicle which appeared to be speeding and several other traffic violations," said Captain Kevin Holt said. " After the traffic stop was made the officers were able to identify some warrants on the driver and subsequently made an arrest."
Holt says they've made busts before, but this one is by far unique.
"You normally don't find a large brick, 22.5 pounds, that's quite a bit of marijuana to be transporting in," said Holt.
As for Rogers, he faces a long list of charges as he sits behind bars.
Speeding, Possession of a Firearm and Driving on Suspended Drivers License along with several drug charges.
But EPD tells us they most importantly the drugs seized won't ever make it to the streets.

So how does Cameron Diaz feel about getting romantic — even if only onscreen — with ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake? In a word: thrilled.
"He's the best person for the job. He's going to be hilarious," the actress told "Access Hollywood" host Billy Bush on the Oscars red carpet Sunday.
The former twosome are pairing up in the big-screen comedy "Bad Teacher," in which they'll play the leads. The film — which centers on a teacher (Diaz) who makes a play for her rival's boyfriend (Timberlake) after getting dumped — started shooting this month in Los Angeles. The comedy also stars Molly Shannon, Jason Segel, Lucy Punch and "Modern Family" actor Eric Stonestreet.
Variety reports that Timberlake was cast after Columbia Pictures saw his performance in the upcoming David Fincher film "The Social Network," based on the founding of Facebook. "To be honest, David Fincher is so ridiculously genius that we're all just following his lead," Timberlake has said. "I think we want to tell the story, and I want to tell it through [screenwriter Aaron] Sorkin's words and Fincher's eyes. I think the consensus for all of us is that we just want to make a great film."
Diaz, who said they just had their first day of shooting with Segel on Saturday, is ready to see Timberlake put his comedic chops to work. "He's clearly a very talented comedian; look at his 'Saturday Night Live' [skits]," she told "Access." "He's fantastic. He's going to be so great."
Check out everything we've got on "Bad Teacher."

How the Actors in '1917' Helped Pull Off the Crazy One-Take Structure
This post contains spoilers for 1917.
For actor Dean-Charles Chapman -- probably best known as Tommen on Game of Thrones -- the preparation process for Sam Mendes' new WWI drama 1917 resulted in a major revelation about his own family's history. He discovered that his great-great-grandfather was shot, paralyzed, and stranded in No Man's Land for four days. His story is part of a book Chapman encountered while researching his role as a soldier who undertakes a dangerous mission with the hope of saving his brother. "When I found that out I just automatically felt so much more connected to the story we were telling," Chapman says. "Just by knowing that I had an ancestor who went through a similar thing."
That emotional connection added another layer of immersion to what was already an already immersive experience for the performers in Mendes' film, a quality it aims to translate to the audience. Mendes, who dedicates the film to his grandfather, chooses to shoot the action as if it were in one continuous take, following Chapman's Lance Corporal Blake and George MacKay's Lance Corporal Schofield as they attempt to deliver a message across the ravaged French landscape that could save English troops from a deadly German attack. It's a fairly simple, linear story told in a manner that was anything but simple to pull off. In the opening moments, your eye tracks Blake and Schofield as they receive their task, and the movie doesn't end until that journey is complete. It's a risk that has paid off so far: 1917 has been nominated for multiple Golden Globes and is in the thick of Oscar conversations.
Mapping out the narrative required six months of rehearsal for Chapman and MacKay. "Usually you can craft the rhythm and the pace of the story in the edit, but you can't do that when you're basically putting the film together with no cuts in it," MacKay recalls. "We had this big rehearsal period because we had to decide the rhythm of the story beforehand and the pacing of the story." That meant that Chapman and MacKay had to nail down how they were going to deliver their dialogue, down to the pauses. It also involved clocking out the length they would travel over the course of a conversation so that the production team, led by designer Dennis Gassner, could build the sets -- massive trenches, fields littered with dead human and animal bodies -- around the timing of the scene.
Chapman notes that even during filming they would rehearse sometimes more than 20 times before rolling. If the weather conditions weren't right, they'd spend that downtime running scenes, nearly constantly in movement. "We should have had like a pedometer or something," MacKay jokes.
The shoot also required its performers to participate in entire filmmaking process. During one sequence, set in a German bunker, Chapman and George were in possession of the only light source, essentially serving as assistants to famed cinematographer Roger Deakins in capturing the atmosphere. "Roger would be very good at giving us notes and we would have to be very specific on what we were pointing at to light what the camera was seeing," Chapman says. When the detailed choreography went awry, that was often incorporated into the final product. Such was the case of the climactic sequence wherein MacKay makes a mad dash amid exploding bombs as his fellow soldiers are going over the top. "When some sort of mistake happened we had to give it a real life and energy," he says. "When I get knocked over a bunch of times that was just what happened. But everyone was just like we do not say stop until someone says stop."
For Chapman, the intensity of the environment made his character's ultimate fate, a shocking demise midway through the action, more emotional. The moment in which Blake is unexpectedly stabbed after trying to aid a downed enemy pilot is the only one Chapman didn't rehearse. "As an actor, these continuous takes really allow [you] to just become fully immersed in what you're doing," he says. "I know this sounds stupid, but I genuinely believed I was dying. When they called cut, I'm serious, I couldn't stop crying." With Blake's journey left incomplete, Chapman felt his was too. "I literally got so lost in it I was living in it rather than acting," he says. "It was a weird experience."

Cheer up, the worst is yet to come!
– Mark Twain, Those Extraordinary Twins (1894)
The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note hit seven-year highs this week.
It made the biggest single-day move since November 2016 on Wednesday.
It’s been above 3% for two and a half weeks, and Wall Street is already talking about new stages of cycles and new trading ranges.
If you’d clicked that link just short of noon on Friday, you’d have seen a big red banner across the top of the page blaring, “Dow drops more than 250 points as rates pop on jobs report”…
Bubblevision nearly broke itself, between Imperial Washington’s Kavanaugh Kvetch and the trickle of blood on Wall Street.
It’s a breakout, alright, but it’s just another of the hot-chyron variety.
Yes, the 10-year is at 3.23%, and it’s just another stop on the “normalization” path.
Indeed, Fed Chair Jerome Powell told PBS this week that interest rates are “still accommodative,” that monetary policy is “a long way from neutral.”
Yet, here we are, a “MARKET SELL-OFF,” brought to you by CNBC… because the benchmark risk-free rate of return ticked up 20 basis points.
Folks, this is just a great aunt of yield shocks, maybe a close cousin…
Where the Great Disruptor will ultimately lead us is anybody’s guess.
But it’s a far worse place than either Imperial Washington or Wall Street imagines.
And his Trade War will have a lot to do with it.
The Donald is playing blind man’s bluff, poking his tariff stick into a hornet’s nest better known as China.
The Red Ponzi is the greatest financial house of cards in human history. And his orange-hair-brained attack is about to generate an ugly trifecta.
To wit, he’s aiming for 10% to 25% tariffs on $517 billion of current Chinese imports to the U.S.
That’s insane. As Wal-Mart wrote in a letter to U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lightizer, “The immediate impact will be to raise prices on consumers and tax American business and manufacturers.”
So, it’ll hammer the pocketbooks of his Red State constituency. Here’s Forbes:
In the three months after the United States imposed tariffs on washing machines to protect Whirlpool and other U.S. manufacturers, a decision at cross-currents and exacerbated by tariffs on imported steel and aluminum, prices for washing machines increased more rapidly than any three-month period in the 40-years data has been collected and those prices increased more than twice as fast as any of 300 other categories in the last two of those three months.
Here’s the picture:
But it will also send the Middle Kingdom – a giant experiment in “if you build it, they will come” – into a terminal tailspin.
China, enabled by an endless $40 trillion flow of credit from its state-controlled banking apparatus and its shadow banking affiliates, went berserk on easy money.
And it consumed more cement 2011 to 2013 than did the U.S. during the entire 20th century – enough to build 160 Hoover Dams in every state in the union.
It’s actually factories, warehouses, ports, office towers, malls, apartments, roads, airports, train stations, high-speed railways, stadiums, monumental public buildings, and much more.
They might just as well have poured all that cement in the Gobi Desert. That stuff drove crazy Keynesian GDP accounting.
But it isn’t sustainable.
Finally, the impending inflationary surge due to rising tariffs will force the Fed into a tightening campaign far more stringent and long-lasting than Wall Street expects.
Our monetary central planners painted themselves into a corner. They delayed “normalization” until the 11th hour – and then the Donald showed up…
Prices at the consumer and producer levels are already picking up…
Changing the name of NAFTA will prove a Pyrrhic victory. Full of confidence in his methods, there’s no way now the Donald will back off China.
Talking heads on Wall Street and in Imperial Washington expect a deal, with differences on timing and content. Either way, it’s “just around the corner.”
It’s not. It looks more like the beginning of what Alibaba’s Jack Ma called a 20-year war.
It looks like the end of Bubble Finance, too.
But it has to get that kind of “so much worse”…
Because that’s the only way it’ll get better.

Yesterday, I experienced two new things:
- a gig in a garden
- not tasting a self-bought bottle of wine.
The first of these introduced me to a live performance by John MOuse. Sitting in the sun with toddlers toddling around, a dog wee-ing on the lawn whilst listening to two guitarists and a vocalist convey the stark realities of life was bliss. I’ll happily admit that on first listening to John MOuse through the speakers of my iPhone, I wasn’t much enamoured. But, in a similar vain to my late-teens swift reassessment of Radiohead and The Smiths, this was quickly turned on its head after properly listening to them second time around (and this time there was an added bonus of burgers and hotdogs). The reason for this turnaround: because it was different. After five years of fleeting listens to Radio 1 (and Radio 2), my ears have become attuned to the expected. I will – without haste – be attending their next local gig where I look forward to the full shebang. I listened to the album Replica Figures through my iphone speakers the next day and – simultaneously – did nothing else.
Now, for the second on that list. Despite currently avoiding anything that might cause a Brahms and Liszt episode, I can still appreciate a good tipple from a whiff or by adding a splash to the odd culinary exploit. I wouldn’t disagree with someone who argued that £12.99 isn’t small change for a bottle wine, but, where else – other than Pen-Y-Lan Road’s The Bottle Shop – would you be reminded of a scene in Black Books where Dylan Moran freezes a bottle of wine to use as a lollipop, straight after being informed of Germany’s thriving microbrewery scene and the contravening of strict beer purity laws. Alas, I couldn’t request a taste test as my Becks Blue was slowly warming back home; I’ll watch Black Books, though.

President Joe Biden is telling Democratic Party stalwarts that he’s planning to run for office in 2024, the clearest indication yet that he’ll seek his party’s nomination for president in two years’ time.
According to an NBC News report, Biden told Al Sharpton that he’s planning on running for a second term in a private conversation during an event with civil rights leaders at the White House.
“I’m going to do it again. I’m going,” Biden said, according to an official in Sharpton’s National Action Network.
Party insiders appear to be readying for another Biden run, and his political aides are reportedly taking steps to prepare for an eventual announcement. Publicly, however, Biden has not been as forthcoming, perhaps in order to avoid campaign finance rules that would apply to him as soon as he becomes an official candidate for the presidency.
“It’s much too early to make that kind of decision,” Biden said in a recent interview on CBS’s “60 Minutes” program when asked about the possibility of running for reelection.
Polling data shows that voters overall — including most Democratic-leaning voters — would prefer a different Democratic candidate in 2024. An ABC News/Washington Post poll in September, for example, found that only 35 percent of voters who identify as Democrats or lean Democratic want Biden to run, while 56 percent say the party should nominate another candidate.
Other polls have shown higher support among Democrats for a second Biden presidential run; a Morning Consult/Politico poll late last month, for example, showed that 58 percent of Democratic voters want him to run for a second term. But that number didn’t include Democratic “leaners” — and voters overall in that poll were opposed to another Biden run, with just 30 percent of respondents saying Biden should run again.
In late 2021, Biden said that he would be more likely to run in 2024 if Trump also sought reelection.
“Why would I not run against Donald Trump for the nominee? That’ll increase the prospect of running,” he said in an interview with ABC News.
“Biden’s the one that can say I already slayed that dragon and I’ll slay him again,” presidential historian Douglas Brinkley recently told Business Insider.
Polling between the likely top candidates for the two major political parties shows that Biden is slightly ahead of Trump. A Yahoo! News/YouGov poll published last week showed that, if a hypothetical election was held between the two today, Biden would get 47 percent of the vote while Trump would get 45 percent.


A student rushed to a sick stranger’s rescue by delivering her medication after spotting her desperate plea on Facebook.
Mum-of-one Jolene’s car broke down at the worst possible time – on Sunday night when she had run out of her medication. Without her car there was no way she would be able to reach the pharmacy in Manchester City Centre in time.
Desperate for help, Jolene turned to Facebook. She wrote a plea for help on the Facebook group ‘FOR SALE OR SWAP IN STOCKPORT’, which she helps manage, asking if anyone could help pick up her tablets.
A relieved Jolene told the Manchester Evening News, “I have got a little boy and it was all running through my head what would happen if I didn’t get my medication. But Zeki saved the day.”
Manchester University History student Zeki Al-Khishali, 23, quickly offered to help. He rode from his home in Stockport to Manchester where he collected the prescription which he took to Jolene in Wythenshawe.
Jolene offered to pay for the fuel used, which Zeki refused. Instead he asked for the money to be donated to Blood Bikes Manchester, a charity Zeki has recently started volunteering for. Blood Bikes Manchester transports blood, platelets, vaccines and any other urgent medical supplies to hospitals.
Since his act of kindness Zeki has been blown away by the kind messages he has received from hundreds of people on Facebook.
The humble student told the Manchester Evening News, “It’s funny because all the posts on the group are about selling toasters and sofas and clothes – but this woman genuinely just needed some help.
“She was clearly over the moon. I don’t think anyone has been so happy to see me in all my life.”
