Thorne Moorends Town Council says the pedestrian bridge over the canal in Thorne is ‘not available for use’.
In a post to social media, the town council says the bridge has “developed a fault” adding: “An engineer is scheduled to visit tomorrow [Friday 31 July] to hopefully deal with any necessary repairs. The bridge will not therefore be available for pedestrian use until the repairs are completed.”
The pedestrian bridge links between Hatfield Road and South Parade in Thorne, passing over the Stainforth and Keadby Canal.
Until repaired, the bridge will be in the ‘open’ position to allow boat traffic to travel along the canal.

Jake Katz of Williamsville completed a march toward victory with an 8-stroke win over Chris Covelli and Matt Stasiak on Saturday in Clarence. The recent SUNY-Binghamton graduate traveled the fairways and greens of Brookfield Country Club in absolute control of his game, posting three rounds below par.
After a second-round 66, Katz wasn’t threatened by the field. The lowest number posted by the other entrants was a Friday 69 by Matt Stasiak. While others may have been capable of the needed, mid-60s score, Katz was the only one to make the necessary number of birdies to reach it. After establishing the separation from the field, he did what all champions do thereafter: play conservatively, to force the pursuers to make their move.
To their credit, Stasiak and co-runner up Chris Covelli held their ground well. Neither scored above 74 on a challenging Brookfield course. In another year, the event might have reached a tantalizing finish, with the runners-up on 214, Michael Carrig at 217 and Mike Boss and Billy Wisniewski at 219. The 8 strokes between Katz and second place indicated the gulf in physical prowess and talent that exists.
Former champion and Brookfield member John Gaffney recovered from an opening 78 with consecutive rounds of par 72 to reach the top ten. Glen Oak representative Ryan Hawkins was the only golfer among the final 36 to lower his score each day, moving from 77 to 75 to a third-round 73, good for a T13 finish. Tim DiGuilio was lucky (or unlucky) enough to fashion three scores of 77, the only golfer in the field to record three identical numbers.
The 2012 Men’s Individual will be held at Crag Burn, while the Match Play will take place at Country Club of Buffalo. Without Katz to defend his titles, the BDGA will be a wild west of competition once again.


9 p.m. White Water Tavern. $5.
There’s some real deal, wrestling-with-grown-ups’-issues going on in Little Rock quartet Whale Fire‘s new two-song EP. The tracks — “Dream of Me” and “The Fabric” — are strong, melodic tunes, with reverb-heavy guitars and beautiful vocal harmonies that’ll no doubt hit the sweet spot for fans of Fleet Foxes and Band of Horses.
On “Dream of Me,” Clay Grubbs sings of anxious dreams and relationship stresses. The flip side’s “The Fabric” finds John Steel looking through the wreckage of young adulthood, trying to figure out what’s really going on and not being certain about what he finds. “The fabric of what I believe / Is falling apart at the seams / I’m losing my touch / How I always thought it would be.”
Taken with the band’s other recent single, “Wild-Eyed Mistake,” it’s apparent that these guys are building a strong body of work that’ll likely form the foundation of a solid long-player. You can pick up a copy of the limited edition 7″ single for $7. Also playing this show are the shambolic pop maestros Sea Nanners and former two-dude band (now expanded to a four-dude format) Collin vs. Adam.

A variation of Strawberry Brown Betty is what is on my mind and on a plate today. This year, for the 3rd time in a row, strawberries topped the list of the 12 “dirtiest” fruits and vegetables, according to the Environmental Working Group. I adore fresh strawberries and have struggled over the choice between local, seasonal vs. organic, but with the EWG information, it will continue to be organic fresh strawberries for me. Yesterday at my local Mom’s Organic Market, Center City, Philly, I was delighted to see boxes of organic strawberries on sale. I looked at the boxes carefully, turning them over to check for signs of mold. I made my selection, and as soon as I got home, opened the box and checked the berries for any bruised or moldy ones. Truth: one spoiled berry will spoil the bunch. What I do when using fresh organic strawberries is not feasible, is use frozen ones in desserts.
Now, in the spirit of spring-cleaning, I am continuing to use what I have in the freezer. I found a few pieces of the orange bundt cake from More Great Good Dairy Free Desserts Naturally, and loved the idea of pairing this cake with the beautiful organic strawberries I bought. I defrosted a few pieces of the cakes and crumbled them, and then toasted the crumb in my oven. The cake became my bread cubes and crumbs for the Betty. Why the blueberry Betty in progress? Well, frozen berries are standing in here for fresh. Naturally, you can make a Betty more traditionally using bread crumbs and cubes too. Vary away.
What is Brown Betty?
A Brown Betty is an old-fashioned baked fruit dessert, made with coarse toasted and buttered bread crumbs or cubes, that alternate with layers of fruit. They do not have milk and eggs in them, unlike conventional bread puddings, and I figured there is no need to use bread. In fact, I decided to make a make Strawberry Brown Betty, with the above-mentioned leftover orange cake and the sliced fresh strawberries macerated in just a little pure maple syrup. If I’d had frozen strawberries, I would have defrosted them and lightly sweetened the resulting liquid. Original Bettys were totally simple, using bread, butter, and fruit. Newer recipes reflect modern tastes and spices and spirits are often added. I choose to make my Betty without adding flavorings to allowing the fruit to shine. The toasted cake still tasted of citrus.
Eating fruits and vegetables is crucial for good health, so what do we do when organic is not an option? And, what about local produce vs. shipped. Definitely food for though. Wouldn’t it be something if we were asked to pay more for chemical-laden produce. I’m very interested in your opinions and would be so appreciative of comments here on this blog post.
Strawberry Brown BettyFran Costigan
- Cake or bread crumbs to equal 3 cups
- Strawberries, sliced to equal 3-4 cups, sliced to equal 3-4 cups

There are many unusual spring bulbs that are well worth growing, in addition to the tulips and daffodils that most people know.
Some of these less common bulbs are small and delicate, others tall and exotic looking, but all are fabulous. Many naturalize to come back year after year, spreading if they’re happy, and most are unappealing to bulb menaces such as deer and squirrels.
Uncommon spring-flowering bulbs to discover
These unusual spring bulbs are perfect way to add something different to your spring show.
Blue star windflower (Anemone blanda):
Photo: © Y. Cunnington
These attractive, low-growing daisy-like blue, pink or white flowers with yellow centers are as cute as a button and grow about an inch or two wide. Windflowers grow about 5 or 6 inches tall and bloom in mid-spring.
These unusual spring bulbs are actually rhizomes that have a tendency to dry out, so it’s a good practice to soak them in water overnight to plump up with moisture before planting. Plant about 2 inches deep and 1 or 2 inches apart. Use at least 12 to 15 per clump.
They make a lovely spring show under flowering shrubs or at the front edge of a perennial bed. This plant naturalizes well. By the way, the name is derived from the Greek word for ‘wind’ (anemos) and ‘blanda’ meaning ‘beautiful’.
Snake’s-head fritillaria or guinea-hen flower (Fritillaria meleagris):
This species of fritillaria has purple or white nodding flowers with unusual chequered petals about a inch or two wide that bloom in early spring.
These unusual spring bulbs grow about 10 inches tall and are native to Europe where they usually grow in moist locations.
They prefer rich soil that doesn’t dry out. Plant them 4 inches deep and 3 or 4 inches apart and use about 9 to 13 bulbs in each clump. Try to get them into the ground as early as possible in the fall, as they can dry out easily.
Fritillaria looks lovely in flower beds, rock gardens, and under trees and shrubs.
Bulgarian ornamental onion (Nectaroscordum siculum):
These eye-catching unusual spring bulbs have gorgeous opalescent dangling bell-shaped flowers that bloom in late spring on top of 35 inch tall stems.
The bulbs should be planted 8 inches deep and 8 inches apart in very well drained soil. Plant in clumps of at least 3 to 5 bulbs.
Nectaroscordum looks wonderful with hostas. I once saw them interplanted with a collection of hostas so that the bulb flowers gave the impression that the hostas were blooming in late spring.
Persian fritillaria (Fritillaria persica):
This plant has deep purple, almost black, nodding flowers atop 30 inch tall stems in early spring, and blue-green leaves that are also very attractive.
These unusual spring bulbs are quite large and should be planted as early in fall as possible because their roots can start to grow inside the packaging and be easily damaged during planting. This species also likes a well-drained soil. Plant 10 inches deep and 10 inches apart.
Fritillaria persica looks lovely planted with yellow or white daffodils or in the flower garden between clumps of perennials. Plant at least three to a grouping.
Wild hyacinth (Camassia species):
Although these spring bulbs are native to western North America, they aren’t at all well-known in the U.S. and Canada.
There are several species and what they all have in common are upright spikes of white, or more commonly, light or dark blue star-like flowers. They bloom in late spring to early summer and like moister soil than most bulbs.
Camassia quamash (sometimes listed as C. esculenta) have deep blue flowers and grow about 14 to 16 inches tall. Plant about 6 inches deep and 8 inches apart. North American native people used to eat these bulbs.
Camassia cusickii have light blue flowers in late spring to early summer but grow taller, about 24 to 30 inches. Plant 6 inches and 8 inches apart. This species produces abundant flowers, with up to 100 star-shaped little flowers on each raceme.
Camassia leichtlinii is another tall-growing species. There are two cultivars: ‘Alba’, which blooms in white, and ‘Caerulea’, light blue. Like the others, plant this one 6 inches deep and 8 inches apart. Wild hyacinths combine well with perennials such as daylilies, peonies, Siberian iris or bleeding heart.

Kanye West will be spending more of his time in the recording studio in a bid to kick up his musical career. He revealed this in a new tweet on Saturday morning kanye tweeted his ambitious plan to release three albums per year.
“No more fashion calendar… I’m going Mad Max… 6 collections a year…3 albums a year,” he wrote.
The rapper has been very active on twitter after he released his album, The Life of Pablo, on Feb. 14. Very recently, West announced that he will no longer release physical albums.
“I was thinking about not making CDs ever again… Only streaming,” he Tweeted before referencing the cover art of his 2013 effort, Yeezus. “The Yeezus album packaging was an open casket to CDs r.i.p.”
He continued, “uuuuuuum, so there it is… No more CDs from me.”
According to Billboard, Def Jam and Universal Music Group were working with West on several possible release strategies for The Life of Pablo, and that a physical version was due.
West has only released eight studio albums in his 12 year career, so dropping three albums in one year would definitely be an unprecedented feat for the Chicago rapper.
If West keeps his word, then that would mean he’ll be dropping two more albums in 2016.

Finished this journal page a couple of nights ago, for my oldest granddaughter, Emma Sophia. I took the photo of her walking in the yard blowing bubbles. When I pulled it up on the screen I had to use it in my art journal.
Lots of layering, and to give it extra dimension I used Liquitex Modeling Paste, acrylic paint and finally ink to make the images pop! Found the quote on Pintrest. It was perfect for a little girl with a big imagination! Nana loves you! Miss Emma

When paint and Ella Byass collide you can be sure there will be spectacular result and this year it has taken the Kyneton local to the Young Archie finals.
The year nine Braemar College student is one of five finalists in the 13-15 age group, announced in July.
Her artwork will be on display at the Art Gallery of NSW in an area next to the Archibald, Wynne and Sulman exhibitions until October 22.
For the past five years Ella has attended weekly art classes at the 'Folio Club' Woodend Railway Station after school. It was there that she had lessons by a wonderfully talented and encouraging teacher, Jennifer Barnett.
In late 2016, Jennifer organised a Sunday workshop with one of last year's Archibald finalists, local artist Daniel Butterworth, and it was at this session that Ella painted the portrait of her older brother Harry.
In her artist's statement for the portrait, Ella wrote: 'I decided to paint my older brother Harry. I'm not sure why I had a real interest in painting him, maybe it is his raw expressions, or that to overcome all our fighting this was the way that we could make a special connection. These days he hates having his photo taken, but surprisingly he let himself be the subject of my first painted portrait.'
Ella still attends weekly classes at the Folio Club and now has a new teacher renowned artist, Tim Jones.
Her mother Sophie said the family would be travelling to Sydney in September to see her painting hanging in the gallery and to hear the announcement of the winners.
"We are very excited that she is a finalist and that is wonderful enough for us. To see her painting hanging in the gallery will be a real thrill," she said.

Some West Coast Eagles fans will drive across the Nullarbor or fly to Melbourne via Bali to see their team play in the AFL grand final.
About 15,000 members were alerted on Monday morning that they had secured tickets in the grand final ballot, sending them scrambling to buy plane seats or find other ways of getting to the MCG.
Meanwhile heartbroken Dockers fans are flooding auction websites as they try to unload prematurely purchased flights and tickets.
Some are asking more than $2500 for the return trip.
Eagles supporter Kate Hill, grand-daughter of AFL Hall of Fame member Jack Sheedy, booked two months ago to fly to Melbourne via Canberra - including an overnight stop - with a return flight via Brisbane.
Others have even more exotic flight paths.
"I've heard people are going to Bali to get to Melbourne, which seems insane," she told AAP.
"We looked at flights a couple of months ago and they were already up around the $1000 one-way area and I figured I'd just try to go to Canberra first and it was so much easier."
Virgin and Qantas have added thousands of seats between Perth and Melbourne, while some fans have been trying to charter flights, with quotes approaching $70,000 for a 50-seat aircraft.
Eagles supporters who missed out on Monday's ballot can compete for returned tickets on Tuesday afternoon.
Perth's Domain Stadium will open its gates to 10,000 spectators on game day, allowing picnics on the field while the match is broadcast on the big screen.

give someone a rugged travel outfit in a box with a camera like this and a open around the world plain ticket on top would be an AWESOME gift! (maybe in a cool old leather suitcase instead of a box as well, make it an all you need to go right now package)

The Ultimate e-SUV Comparison: 2019 Audi e-tron vs Tesla Model X vs Jaguar I-Pace
【Summary】German automaker Audi’s much-anticipated e-Tron SUV will hit the markets in the middle of next year and we decided to find out if there is indeed one truly ultimate e-SUV.
German luxury carmaker Audi's much-anticipated e-tron SUV will hit the markets in the middle of next year. Over the last year, British carmaker, Jaguar's I-Pace SUV also received much critical acclaim. Tesla, a pioneer in the electric car segment, obviously had a head start on these premium car manufacturers and therefore the Tesla Model X might just be the most advanced electric SUV offered today.
But with the entry of these new contenders in the market, we felt there is a need to take a closer look to find out if there is indeed one truly ultimate battery-powered SUV.
The Audi e-tron is powered by a 95 kWh battery pack feeding two asynchronous electric motors producing a maximum power output of 355 horsepower and 440 lb-ft of torque. The e-tron also comes with a "boost mode" which increases the power output to 402 hp and helps the car accelerate from a standstill to 60 mph in just 5.5 seconds, which happens to be the slowest of the three.
The Jaguar I-Pace leads the chart at 4.5 seconds followed by Tesla Model S P70D, which offers a 0-60 mph time of 4.9 seconds.
The all-electric driving range of 2019 Audi e-tron is 248.5 miles, which is highest of the three, with the base Tesla Model S offering a 237-mile range and Jaguar I-Pace, which offers 234 Miles electric driving range.
Using a DC fast-charging station, the battery pack of Audi e-tron can be charged to 80 percent in under 30 minutes. The Tesla Model X charging at one of the company's Superchargers takes 30 minutes to reach 70 percent, while the Jaguar I-Pace takes 45 minutes to get to an 80 percent charge.
The Audi e-tron all also offers an electric Quattro AWD setup, which sends 56 percent of the power to the rear wheels and the rest of the remaining power to the front wheels. The e-tron also uses regenerative braking, with 90 percent of braking being carried out by regenerative mode and 10 percent is carried out by the mechanical hydraulic brakes.
Also on offer is the adaptive ride-height adjustment thanks to e-tron's air suspension, which can lower the vehicle by 1 inch and increase it by 2 inches to offer better highway cruising and off-roading capabilities as required.
The interior of e-Tron gets a 5 seat layout and Audi offers its visual cockpit in the upcoming electric utility vehicle. The Tesla Model X is the most expensive option of the three, with the top-of-the-line variant priced at $140,000. Meanwhile, Jaguar's top-end variant is priced at $80,500 and the top-of-the-range variant of the 2019 Audi e-tron is priced at 88,000, and therefore sits in the middle.
It is also worth mentioning that as of 2019, the Tesla Model X will not be eligible for a $7,500 federal tax credit, which is ending Jan 1, as Tesla reached the 200,000 vehicle limit. Whereas the e-tron and I-Pace will still be eligible at the start of 2019.

Alpha Vacuum Brazed Profile Wheels
Alpha Vacuum Brazed Router Profile Wheels
When you need that perfect Demi-Bullnose edge, you need the tool that can do it easily.
Alpha recognized the need for a wheel for use on granite, engineered stone, concrete, crystallized glass and porcelain slabs. As a result, we are proud to introduce the Alpha Profiler B-Series, designed to produce 3/16”, 3/8”, 1/2” or 3/4” demi-bullnose edge on slabs and tiles. Alpha created this wet-cutting wheel by making use of the latest vacuum brazed technology and utilizing diamonds best suited for harder materials. Equipped with a 5/8”-11 female thread and internal water passage holes, the Alpha Profiler B-Series will fit the AIR-680, AWP-158, VSP-320 and other brands of center water-feed polishers.

BNSF Railway Co., the Coalition to Stop CPKC and the American Chemistry Council are expressing opposition to Canadian Pacific Kansas City's request that the Surface Transportation Board keep confidential certain information as part of its oversight of the recently merged Class I.
In filings made with the STB last week, the three organizations said they're opposed to CPKC's latest request, submitted in a May 24 letter, to adopt a protective order for oversight proceedings and set up another category of confidentiality that would not allow other parties to view certain confidential information.
In their filings, the parties said they oppose CPKC's request because the board's oversight of CPKC should be transparent. Their opposition is the latest in a series of back-and-forth filings with the STB over how it will monitor CPKC.
When it approved the merger in March, the board established several conditions, including that it would monitor the railroad for seven years to ensure CPKC is preserving competition for shippers.
CPKC's "request is inconsistent with the board's approach to other merger oversight proceedings and would limit public participation in the oversight process," a law firm representing BNSF wrote in a June 13 filing. "The current protective order already covers the types of information CPKC seeks to protect, ensures that this information is not viewed by employees of CPKC's competitors and limits this information to be viewed only by outside counsel and consultants who have signed a 'highly confidential' undertaking."

This recipe is adapted from one by Laura Calder in "French Food at Home." It was passed on to us years ago by our friend James as a great example of what to do with Piment d’Espelette. Piment d’Espelette is a lovely crushed chile that’s grown exclusively in the Basque region of France. It’s pretty pricey, but the flavour is incomparable. James was right: this dish is the perfect showcase for the spicy, toasty flavour of these rare chiles.
2 tbsp olive oil 2 onions, sliced 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 red pepper, julienned 1 green pepper, julienned 1 tspPiment d’Espelette 1 lb tomatoes, seeded and chopped Salt and pepper 4 eggs 8 slices prosciutto
Heat oil in a large, shallow pan. Cook the onions over medium heat until soft, then add the peppers, garlic and piment d’espelette and cook until everything is tender. Add the tomatoes, salt and pepper and cook with the lid on for another 10 minutes or so, until everything is meshing together nicely.
Crack the eggs directly onto the vegetables, spaced evenly apart. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and bake with the lid on until the eggs are just cooked. Make a nest of prosciutto on each plate and lift two eggs, with their vegetable beds, onto them. Serve with slices of toasted and buttered baguette.

From the mountains of Tanzania, this medium to dark roast coffee has a medium and round body with a clean, fruity finish. Its fruity, rustic aroma is made possible by the hints of dried fruit, black currant, and roasted almonds contained within. But the real secret behind the unique profile of this blend is the type of coffee beans used: Peaberry. This pea-shaped coffee bean is the result of the fruit of the coffee plant containing 1 bean instead of 2. Around 5% of all coffee beans harvested worldwide are of the peaberry type. Medium to low acidity, with a fruity consistency that delivers a clean and crisp aftertaste.
Central Islip, NY
Rural coffee understands and values the coffee process, from harvesting of the fruit to the brewing methods. Their roasting technique and method is central to what sets them apart. They do not rush the process, allowing enough roasting time for the coffee to develop, enhancing its natural sweetness, properties and flavors. Their roasting process never burns or destroys the coffee beans, ensuring the unique and delicate flavors of the coffee bean are conserved and never compromised. With longstanding relationships with coffee farmers around the world, Rural Coffee seeks and hand selects some of the worlds finest, specialty, single-origin Arabica coffee.
Store in an airtight container. Enjoy within 30 days for best flavor, but will last several months.


Daily passenger count in govt buses drop by about 1.5 lakh
kolkata: The daily count of average number of passengers travelling via government buses after the pandemic has decreased by about 1.5 lakh. Two years back, the number of commuters used to be approximately 2.5 lakh.
The once popular CSTC buses are now running in an economic loss considering the rise of oil prices and the stagnation in the rise of ticket prices. Earlier per day earnings ranged around 32 to 35 lakh, now it has dipped to Rs 10 lakh. Unlike private buses, they have not raised the fare.
It has been reported by a news publication that managers at several depots in the sub-urban districts are finding it extremely difficult to take out the available buses considering the lack of oil.
It has been claimed by the officials of the corporation that this has resulted in the reduction of the numbers of buses being plied.
Total number of bus services used to be 900; it has been reduced by 200 per day. A reduction in the daily plying of state buses has also resulted in passengers choosing alternative buses to reach a destination.
This impact has been due to a multitude of reasons. The primary being fuel cost and ticket prices, the other being increase in ownership of private vehicles like cars and bikes.

In direct contradiction to a statement earlier this month, Hamas politburo chief Khaled Mashaal is quietly moving his headquarters to Qatar.According to the LIGNET intelligence website, Mashaal announced Friday he will “temporarily” be carrying out Hamas activities from Qatar. However, “Hamas is keeping its Damascus offices open.”
Mashaal made the announcement after the terrorist organization closed a Palestinian Authority unity government deal with the rival Fatah faction."Mashaal likely wants to take advantage of Qatar's growing influence in the region and its reputation as a reliable negotiator and a friend of the Palestinian cause,” commented the Langley Intelligence Group in a statement posted Friday on the LIGNET website.
While Mashaal is setting up shop in Qatar, however, his rival in upcoming Hamas elections arrived Friday on an official visit to Tehran.Gaza's de facto Hamas Prime Minister, Ismail Haniyeh, delivered a fiery address to some 30,000 supporters on Saturday to commemorate the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran, vowing Hamas “will never recognize Israel.”


In order not to sound like a killjoy, let me begin by congratulating all the distinguished citizens of Nigeria, and “Friends of Nigeria,” who were decorated with national honours of various categories on Tuesday this week at the International Conference Centre, FCT, Abuja. In point of fact, this year’s list of honourees is refreshingly diversified across professions including musicians, star writers like Chimamanda Ngozi-Adichie, foremost Humanities scholar, Professor Toyin Falola, influential diplomats Amina Mohammed and Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, alongside achievement-oriented public servants like Professor Ishaq Oloyede and Boss Mustapha. So, the regime of Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) has upped the ante in terms of the widespread and value-setting nature of the awards.
It is not just that. We should be thankful for small mercies such as the fact that under Buhari, the nation transcended for once the conception of the national honours as a jamboree to be given annually to politicians and officeholders some of whom reportedly pay huge sums to be put on the list. Under his watch, and as Buhari himself remarked in his speech on the occasion, this is probably the second time in seven years in which national honours will be given at a public ceremony.
That said and the improvement in ethos and conception noted, there are still some reservations about the exercise as well as some musings on how to improve even further the quality of the event. Is it not possible, for example, to create better synergy between outstanding achievement and the appearance of one’s name on the list of awardees?
Buhari’s remark quoted in the opening paragraph to the effect that national honours should transcend decorative or ceremonial character to hint at germane contributions to national development and aspirations provides a jump-off point for my thought in this respect. To illustrate this, there are far too many names of serving public officials, and indeed former ones, whom it is not clear what they were being honoured for except that they occupied public offices. Take, for example, the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, who was appointed in acting capacity in June this year and sworn in formally this week. It takes nothing away from the profile of the eminent judge to observe that he could not have been honoured for his contribution to the remoulding of the judiciary, considering that he is only a few months old on the job. If the answer to that poser is that he is being rewarded because he is Nigeria’s Chief Justice, then there is still a gap in that it begs the question of what a public servant needs to do to win the title.
To make the point clearer, it would show more gravitas if we make a habit and build a culture of conferring honours on public servants who have had the time to distinguish themselves and to ascend to hitherto uncharted heights. If you do not follow this path, the time may well come when every and any public servant who has held high public office is decorated with national honours, thereby returning to the mediocre ways of the past. Still on the justice department, the former Chief Justice, Justice Tanko Mohammed, left office in fairly controversial circumstances but this did not prevent him from making a gallant entry to the honours roll. That apart, there are not a few cases or instances in which one has to think deep or make diligent searches to understand the reasoning behind why they are being called up for honours. So, there is clearly a need to conduct an integrity test on those that successive administrations choose to put on the list if only to provide better fit between the objectives of the awards, as spelt out in Buhari’s speech and those who are actually serenaded on the occasion.
The issue may also be raised whether there is any need to hold the event as an annual ceremony in which a swathe of elite Nigerians, active in the political space, are coronated. Buhari began the journey to distancing government from the annual ritual, trailed by predictably lavish spending but nothing stops successive administrations from conferring honours on truly deserving Nigerians without necessarily mounting an elaborate ceremony.
If this becomes the culture, it will possibly eradicate or, at least, reduce to a minimum the pastime of lobbying in order to have one’s name on the coveted list. The credibility of the exercise is not enhanced by converting it into a far-flung chieftaincy title celebration but rather by giving them only to the deserving and to Nigerians who have gone out of their way to display strength of character, vision and statesmanship. A related point is that as matters stand we have overemphasised, the dramatic and visible aspects of the events and decorations without imbibing its spirit and character. That is why for example why some of our past heroes among them, acclaimed novelist, Chinua Achebe, and Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka, declined the honours because as they argued at the time, there is a disconnect between the state of affairs in the country and the spirit of the honours.
We can illustrate this further by saying that for a country’s national honourees to be so regarded it means that sanctions must be meted out to those who have wilfully violated the ethics and ethos represented by these honours. For example, what sanctions have been administered to those Nigerians who wilfully abetted the high-profile Kuje Correctional Centre attack a few months ago? So, you cannot, on the one hand, bury treasonable acts of some Nigerians while on the other elevating others on the basis of precisely those norms which the criminals and their accomplices flouted.
In this wise, lessons are taught nationally and even globally, not just by applauding those who excel but also by shaming and publicly rebuking those that transgress against the national ethos. If we do not do this, then the danger is that the roll will be no more than what Buhari warned against, namely, a decorative ritual conferred on those who have the right political connections.
Changing a nation’s values is a holistic pursuit that takes into cognisance a wide range of factors which entice leaders and citizens to comport themselves with dignity, fortitude and moral stamina. Good a thing, some Nigerians who uncharacteristically returned hefty sums of money which they could have made away with, entered this year’s list of honour. However, that value of honesty and transparency cannot register home until it becomes generalised.
The agenda and the vision is to de-link our national honours from its earlier predatory straitjacket which does not recognise the compelling need to preserve the award of distinctions by generalising the values they seek to watch.
Mercifully, and as broached earlier, Buhari has already begun the journey to the sanctification of the awards in order to achieve the status of batches of honour that they represent. That has not gone far enough. The succeeding government must carry the battle further by turning the honours list into an occasion for redemptive governance.

Congressman Dave Loebsack released the following statement today after the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced a new supplemental proposed rule to account for gallons waived through Small Refinery Exemptions (SREs) in the nation’s biofuel mandate.
“It is outrageous that not even two weeks after the President and the EPA announced a ‘deal’ to offset the excessive number of SREs they granted to big, profitable oil companies, they fall back on their word. This proposed rule provides no assurance that the estimates used to offset the SREs would meet the actual volume of gallons exempted, leaving farmers and biofuel producers with no guarantee that the billions of gallons of biofuels exempted from the mandate would ever be restored, as has long been promised by the Trump Administration and EPA.
“The Administration’s abuse of the SRE program has already destroyed billions of gallons of biofuel demand and led to the closure or idling of nearly 30 ethanol and biodiesel plants. This proposed rule is another in a long string of broken promises for our farmers and biofuel producers. I will continue to fight back against proposals that fall short of what was promised, and work to uphold the integrity of the RFS. It is past time our farmers and biofuel producers have the certainty they need to help provide our nation with clean, renewable fuel.”
Representative Loebsack has been a longtime supporter of the RFS, ethanol and the biofuels industry. He has been leading the way in the House to increase oversight and transparency of the Small Refinery Exemption that the Administration has used to undermine the RFS, hurting our farmers and rural communities, while propping up Big Oil. As co-chair of the House Biofuels Caucus, Loebsack helped lead the opposition of the excessive use of the SRE, including this August when the President and EPA granted 31 new waivers. As a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Loebsack has continually pushed the EPA to be more transparent and called for the suspension of the program until changes were made.
I want to serve my constituents in any way I can. Whether you need help with a federal agency, are trying to find out if federal grants are available for your project, or are considering applying to a service academy. I hope all the information in this section will be helpful.

Star and Scribe, Chapter Six
Logic couldn’t persuade Jane. Begging couldn’t get her to budge. But a hot bath, a yogurt-cucumber-honey facial, and three mimosas seemed to do the job, though. With just a bit of seductive coaxing and the revelation of a pair of shimmering silver strappy shoes, Stefan convinced Jane to don her rustling Marchesa gown.
“Look how pretty you are!” he purred, luring her to have a look at herself in the enormous mirror by her walk-in closet. She stared at herself and felt hollow guilt at the lack of excitement she felt, despite the fact that this was the best she had ever looked for any event, including her own wedding. The shimmering gold threads embedded in layer after layer of rustling brown and cream lace gave her an unearthly aura. She was Cinderella and the fairy godmother.
“Stefan, thank you, really,” she said, making an attempt to sound gracious. “I’m sorry I’m not more cheerful–-”
“Hey, it’s okay, sweetie.” He held her chin gently, kissed his fingertips and patted them softly on her forehead. “I’ll just be happy when I see you on the cover of every magazine and all they can talk about is what a fabulous artist I am.”
Jane smiled for a moment and felt a flicker of optimism. But the moment faded as she thought of Edmund. “Does he know what happened?”
“Uhh . . .”
“Is he coming?”
Stefan pinched his lips together and twirled a hairbrush between his fingers. Jane nodded slowly and turned and left the room.
She found Edmund in his movie room, laying back in his enormous leather recliner. The lights were off and two empty bottles of Guinness sat on the coffee table beside another nearly empty bottle. He was wearing his nasty old Miskatonic University t-shirt and a faded pair of jeans. A DVD of old Red Dwarf episodes was playing on the enormous plasma screen mounted on the wall, making noise in the background as he scribbled away on a draft of the script.
“Ed, it’s the Awards tonight,” she said casually, softly.
He didn’t budge from the seat, but crossed his feet and rested them on the ottoman in front of him. “Thank you for reminding me,” he sassed.
She changed her mode of attack. “I need you to go,” she insisted in a bored tone. “It’s important.”
“Why, because the PR guys think it’s a good idea?” he sassed at her, tossing his pen across the room. “I think I prefer the TV, thanks. At least I can turn off the fiction I see there when I get sick of it.”
She stood in silence for a moment. This wasn’t going to be easy. As he sullenly stomped over to retrieve his pen, flopped back into his chair, and fixed his gaze on an episode he’d seen a thousand times, her mind traced back over the first time they went to an awards ceremony together. She wore a gold sheath dress, and he’d picked out a tie to match. They had held hands. She remembered the intense look in his eyes as he helped her out of the limousine, and the hot desire in his lips when he’d kissed her on the red carpet. Their appearance that night had been what prompted the press to call them “Hollywood’s Royal Couple.” She tried to remember what it felt like to want him by her side simply to have him there, cameras or no cameras.
“If you don’t come there will be more stories about us.”
He didn’t answer.
“Don’t you care about that?”
“Ed!” she snapped.
“Huh?” he asked, looking up from the paper he was scribbling on.
“If you don’t go,” Jane said very slowly, loudly, and in a patronizing tone, “The tabloids will create bad PR.”
“It isn’t a surprise that I wouldn’t want to go!” he whined. “Remember? I’ve been pretty vocal about not liking awards ceremonies. Nobody will think anything.”
“You worked on at least a dozen of the films that have nominations! It’s ridiculous not to go!” Jane pleaded.
“It’s ridiculous if I do.”
“You’ll look ungracious toward the people you’ve worked with,” Jane jabbed with a low voice, switching to a guilt trip tactic.
“Yes, well, you’re a model of thinking of others, aren’t you then?” he laughed.
Jane pinched her lips and folded her arms. “That doesn’t mean it’s not important for you to come.”
“You didn’t care when I missed last year,” he snarled.
“Yes, well, last year,” she snapped.
“Last year what?” Edmund prompted.
“Last year,” Jane sighed, “I thought you were sleeping with my stunt double.”
Ed wouldn’t drop it. “Until what?”
Jane didn’t answer.
“Until what, Jane?”
“Until I realized out my stunt double was just Larry.”
“Until you realized your stunt double was just Larry, whom we’ve been friends with for ten years.” He punctuated the air with the remote control as he spoke. “If you’re going to accuse me of adultery, at least pick a gender I’m interested in, and at least make sure the person I’m cheating with isn’t a good friend who would never do that to you.”
Jane bit her tongue. She wanted to shout at him that it was all a mistake, it happened a year ago, and for him to bring it up once a week so he could win a fight more easily made her want to smash his entire collection of Rolling Stones LPs. But she needed him tonight.
“You’re right, and I’m sorry,” she said in a clipped tone. “I’ve said I’m sorry. Now will you please put on your tux and come with me?”
“Nope.” He settled into his armchair.
“Ed, I can’t go without you,” she gasped with sudden nervousness.
“Why should you care what they think? I don’t.”
“Yes, well, I’m not you, am I?” She snapped. “Your whole thing is that you’re artsy and witty and have no patience for formal events. I have to be perfect, or they’ll eat me alive.”
“Wouldn’t that be terrible,” he crowed at her.
There was a brief, swallowing silence. “Ed,” she said, her voice frail and low. “Please.”
Edmund finally turned back and looked at her. He opened his mouth to say something snarky but was frozen by the sight of her. From head to toe she was polished and gleaming. Her head was high, but she looked tired. Lovely and exhausted and beaten and defiant. The golden threads in the skirt of her gown glistened. Her hair was soft and gleaming in the dark, flickering light from the television, and the curve of her neck made his eyes linger. Her eyes, shining with tears, pleaded with him. She was holding a bag containing his freshly cleaned and pressed tuxedo in her gloved hands, and around her neck were the pearls he had bought her for their first anniversary.
The cynic in him wanted to dismiss it all as theatrics; her beauty was a distraction and her desperation was just crocodile tears. But there were no tricks in her expression. She was desperate. His stubbornness crumbled, but was not swept away. He knew it would be cruel to make her beg, but he refused to give her the satisfaction of showing enthusiasm. He would do this once, and then no more. They had to stop lying sometime.
He stared at the floor for a moment, and then stepped over to Jane. Without a word, he took the dry cleaning bag from her and went to change his clothes.

Comparison of univariate and multivariate aspects of estuarine meiobenthic community structure
Austen, M.C. and Warwick, R.M. (1989) Comparison of univariate and multivariate aspects of estuarine meiobenthic community structure. Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 29 (1). pp. 23-42.
*Subscription may be required
In a survey of ten sites in the Tamar estuary in January 1984, spatial variability in the species composition and structure of nematode and copepod species assemblages was greater between sites over a range of 1–3 km than between replicates at the same site. Two aspects of meiofauna community structure were studied: (1) the multivariate information: the identities of the species or nematode feeding types are retained and used integrally with data on abundances during comparison of assemblages using multivariate analyses [multidimensional scaling ordination (MDS)] and (2) the univariate information: taxonomic identity is not retained during comparisons of assemblage structure; data analyzed includes numberical abundances, species counts and diversity. Multivariate aspects of species assemblage structure were closely correlated with salinity for both copepods and nematodes. For nematode assemblages sediment disturbance may also have been important and other unidentified factors have clear secondary effects on multivariate copepod assemblage structure. Univariate aspects of nematode assemblage structure did not appear to be correlated with the salinity gradient in the Tamar, sites at the mouth and head of the estuary had a more even nematode species distribution than those in the middle reaches. Nematode univariate assemblage structure may have been more strongly influenced by sediment disturbance caused by hydrographic processes, macrofauna, food resource availability or some combination of all three. Copepod abundances and species numbers were variable but assemblages became more dominated and less diverse with increasing distance away from the mouth of the estuary. Data from 1984 were compared with data from 1982 collected at three of the sites by Warwick and Gee (1984). Persistence of assemblage structure varied from site to site and according to the attribute of community structure under consideration.

New Delhi, May 11: Amid growing chorus over making Virat Kohli India's ODI, T20 skipper, former India captain and legendary batsman Sunil Gavaskar feels the Indian swashbuckler, who is in a supreme form, should not be rushed into handing over captaincy in all formats.
"Virat should not be rushed into captaincy in all formats. Let him grow into this role... 2019 World Cup is far away," Gavaskar was quoted by NDTV as saying.
Kohli is the highest run-getter in the ongoing edition of Indian Premier League and his ability to hit the cricket ball at such ease is simply amazing.
Kohli has amassed 561 runs in nine IPL games so far. Kohli also averages 95.57 in Twenty20 Internationals in 2015/16. The Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper has also slammed two centuries in this season, which is also a record.
But, Kohli's lone heroics are not helping his side win matches as RCB is languishing at sixth position in the points table.
"Bowlers have let Royal Challengers Bangalore down in IPL. Kohli is as good as his team," Gavaskar said while speaking on RCB's show.
To keep their hopes in the ongoing tournament alive RCB must win their game against Mumbai Indians today.

Door Locks At Walmart – There have been various changes on the how doors are created today. From easy woods to valuable glass, these are created using several materials and in different kinds. On the other hand, the most fashionable and commonly used are sliding doors. This type is commonly used in commercial buildings, offices and resorts.
Even though people have started using them in homes, the numbers are less compared to industrial areas.
The sliding door opens on a track. The track beneath the door is accountable for the sliding facility. The most important reason people favor the sliding door is that it raises room space. In homes, these are generally used as screen, shower, wardrobe and glass doors. These attract prestige and glamour to your property.
Let’s take a take a look in to the two main varieties of doors available today.
Top hung Sliding Doors
This really is the most widely used type of sliding doors. They are used in commercial areas and homes too. Two trolley hangers are used to hang the door on very top. The hangers require all the weight of the door, making the door slide smoothly with no problems.
Track stoppers are adjusted on the hidden tracks at the ends. This type has the best weight limitation depending on the trolley hangers used. This is why most providers offer door weights. That is to say, the dimensions of the door issues when using doors that are engineered.
Within this form, additional guides are used to stop it from swinging sideways. The very clear threshold directing is the most widely used type. This really is a plastic guide that is fixed to the surface mostly from the mid assortment of the track. This prevents it from swinging sideways.
In order to stop lateral movements on it, a groove is cut on the bottom which will above the guide install. It’s same case with a glass door too. Really, most of the sliding doors used worldwide are created on glass. As stated above, this really is the most frequently used doors in the world.
This is the second type of sliding doors used today. This type is used in scenarios where the top hung doors can’t be used because of weight problems and other factors. The rollers help the door move smoothly on the track. At precisely the exact same time, these really are directed on precisely the exact same channel with the help the guides on very top.
In this case, all the weight of the door is on the 2 rollers in the base. This makes it harder to open and shut. This is the most important reason people throughout the globe prefer the very best hung ones.

An explosion on the the sun spewed ‘dark plasma’ into space that resulted in a moderate G2-class geomagnetic storm on Wednesday (March 15).
The eruption was detected on March 11 by coronagraphs at NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory satellite (SOHO), an Earth-orbiting spacecraft co-operated by NASA and the European Space Agency. SOHO spotted a somewhat dark stream of plasma, known as a coronal mass ejection (CME), that emerged from the southwestern limb of the sun, according to Spaceweather.com (opens in new tab).
Spaceweather reports that this “dark plasma” is not dark in the sense that dark matter or dark energy are; rather, this plasma is cooler and less luminous than the background sun and denser than gas surrounding it in the sun’s atmosphere.
The timelapse of data from the SOHO coronagraph shows snowy dots and streaks that represent the energetic particles accelerated by shock waves in the CME. They create short-lived luminous speckles when they hit SOHO’s sensors. The coronagraph view also captures the planet Mercury, which is the bright object in the lower right section of the image.
This dark plasma eruption, like other CMEs, was predicted to create mild geomagnetic effects when the energetic particles it spewed reached Earth. “NOAA analysts have modeled the CME and determined that it could graze Earth’s magnetic field on March 15th, producing a G1-class geomagnetic storm,” according to Spaceweather.com.
The effects of this CME were indeed seen on Earth today in the form of auroras and a moderate and a short-lived G2-class geomagnetic storm, Spaceweather reports (opens in new tab). These particles were funneled by Earth’s magnetic field toward our planet’s poles in what is known as a polar cap absorption (PCA) event.
Solar physicist Keith Strong reported in a March 15 tweet (opens in new tab)that the storm disrupted radio signals near the Earth’s poles and could interfere with airline travel close to these regions.
While most of these storms do not cause significant effects on Earth, particularly strong solar storms can wreak havoc on terrestrial technologies. One such storm, the Carrington Event of 1859, caused widespread telegraph disruptions worldwide and created auroras much farther from the poles than usual.

A Ten Word Story


In this paper we present the usage of photonic remote laser based device for sensing nano-vibrations for detection of muscle contraction and fatigue, eye movements and in-vivo estimation of glucose concentration. The same concept is also used to realize a remote optical stethoscope. The advantage of doing the measurements from a distance is in preventing passage of infections as in the case of optical stethoscope or in the capability to monitor e.g. sleep quality without disturbing the patient. The remote monitoring of glucose concentration in the blood stream and the capability to perform opto-myography for the Messer muscles (chewing) is very useful for nutrition and weight control. The optical configuration for sensing the nano-vibrations is based upon analyzing the statistics of the secondary speckle patterns reflected from various tissues along the body of the subjects. Experimental results present the preliminary capability of the proposed configuration for the above mentioned applications.

This is the first year I’ve planned out the garden area before planting… I still have to write a bit of a journal of sorts for what I’m doing and where, but I created a
to scale rough idea map of the space I have and where things will go. Kinda cool to see how it will all fit in here… I totally rearranged the garden this year too. I’m going to be trying to implement a Ruth Stout no till method from this point forward. The new row direction now flows with the wind, so my open pollination plants can self pollinate. You can click on the photo to view it larger, but then you’ll lose the what is where key below. lol Can’t win ’em all…
4. Russian Tea Bush
14. Salad Mix
• Just outside the garden this year, I will also be planting more cucumber, watermelon and pumpkin. An old timer in the area plants these outside his deer fencing, and the deer don’t bother them, so I’m trying it myself to see if I can get more out of the “outside” of my garden by not planting the space hogging pumpkins and melons there.
• Areas 14 through 18 are meant to be interchangeable in order to have rotation for lettuce, beans and peas all within a shaded area with similar sized planting spaces.
• #1 and #2 go back beside the rabbit hutch.

NEWS from Detroit Public Schools
Office of Public Relations
Contact: Steve Wasko
313-873-4892 or 313-212-5636 email@example.com
Detroit Public Schools General Superintendent Connie K. Calloway, Ph.D., will have the opportunity to visit schools and programs in Korea later this month on a study tour abroad.
The trip’s timing comes ideally after the series of traditional late summer and mid-August “Back to School” programs, training sessions, and planning events for school district staff members, all of which she is or has been personally involved in. Recently those included an intensive training program for Detroit’s new principals at which Dr. Calloway served as the instructor. The trip also will follow the DPS staff Opening of Schools meeting on August 18, and will conclude in advance of the opening day of schools for students.
This study tour was deliberately planned to occur during the least disruptive time of year and after all of the planning for opening of schools was completed. An Opening of Schools Taskforce has been meeting since early spring to make preparations for a smooth start for the 2008-2009 school year. A list of schools slated for opening day visits by the Superintendent will be available shortly. Additionally, the district’s summer textbook distribution process that her administration has instituted, through which some 60% percent of school textbooks have already been placed in schools, greatly exceeds the experiences of some recent years during which some textbooks did not reach students until as late as second semester.
“The Superintendent is the district’s first learner, and it’s important to maintain a continual process of enhancing one’s knowledge of schools and programs including those in other cultures, and I look forward to reporting back to Detroit’s parents and educators regarding my discoveries upon my return,” said Superintendent Calloway.

Introduction: Secret "Jurassic Park" Stash
I remember seeing Jurassic Park for the first time as a kid and thinking, I’ve gotta get my hands on one of those secret shaving cream cans. Fast-forward 25 years and although I still don’t have one, I did manage to make my very own secret can with hidden compartment.
It doesn’t have any place to store dinosaur embryos and it’s not made from a can of shaving cream, but it will fool anyone into thinking it's an ordinary can of WD40. I used a WD40 can for a couple of reasons. First – the brand of shaving cream used in the movie isn’t available in Australia, and second – I wanted to use a can that was ubiquitous in any garage or home. You could use any type of can you want though – just make sure it’s made from tin as it’s more durable.
This is a relatively simple hack and works amazingly. Anyone who picked-up the can wouldn’t be able to tell that the bottom can be removed.
Let’s get on with it then.
Step 1: Parts and Tools
You will be able to find all of the parts in any hardware store
1. 50mm PVC Connector
2. 50mm PVC Adapter
3. 40mm PVC tub
4. 40mm Cap
5. 40mm Coupling
6. Can of WD40
1. Epoxy glue
2. Dremel (or something similar) with a cutting wheel. At a pinch you could use an angle grinder
3. Sander. I have a belt sander and it was very handy. You could do the sanding by hand if you wanted to or use files
Step 2: Empty the Can
The first thing that you will need to do is to empty the can
1. Come up with a way to hold the lid down on the can. I used a clamp to hold it down
2. Try and keep the can up straight when emptying it out
3. Make sure that the can is completely empty before the next step. You really don’t want any pressure left in the can when you cut into it.
Step 3: Cut the Base Off the Can
Next, it’s time to remove the bottom of the can. I have seen people use can openers for this but I found a small cutting wheel on a dremel does the job well.
1. Place the can somewhere where you can rotate it easily. I opened up the vice a little, placed a rag against the teeth and put the can on top of this.
2. With a dermal which has a cutting wheel, carefully cut around the bottom of the can. Try to make the cut as straight as possible. Don’t worry though if it is a bit wobbly, you can sand it down later to fix it up.
3. Remove the base and make sure you don’t cut yourself on the can!
Step 4: Sand the End of the Can
1. If you have a belt sander then this will be a lot easier. Place the can onto the sander and start to even out the cut that you made.
2. Keep turning the can, making sure that you sand evenly.
3. When it is straight, grab some 400 to 600 grit sandpaper and sand the edges to make sure it isn’t sharp.
Step 5: Sand the Base
Next thing to do is to sand the base of the can. You want to remove any pieces of the can around the edge.
1. With a bent sander (or file or just sandpaper) carefully remove the small pieces of metal around the base by slowly rotating at an angle on a belt sander
2. Keep checking your work and remove as much as possible of the cut metal. You want to have no can showing out of the top of the base.
3. Don’t worry if the inside of the bottom of the can gets roughed up a little. This is actually a good thing when it comes time to gluing
Step 6: Modding the PVC Connector and Adaptor
Modding the adapter and connector is pretty simple, you will just be trimming them down
1. Place the adapter into a vice with the female screw section facing inwards.
2. With a dremel, remove the coupling section (the part that doesn’t have thread inside)
3. Sand down and remove any burrs
4. Do the exact same for the Connector
5. For the adapter to fit inside the can, you will also need to remove the small plastic gussets running along the outside. Just sand these off until the adapter fits snuggly inside the can
Step 7: Gluing the Adapter
Time to glue the PVC couplings to the can.
1. Screw the connector and adapter together.
2. Next, add some epoxy glue around the adapter and push it into the bottom of the can. The reason why you need to screw the connector to the adapter is to work out how far inside the can the adapter has to be glued. When the base of the can is glued to the connector, it needs to sit flush with the can so it’s important to make sure the adapter is glued in the right spot.
3. Un-screw the connector 1 to 2 turns. Place the base of the can on a flat surface and push the can onto it so they sit flush. The adapter will slide up inside the can and be in the right place for when the glue dies.
4. Leave to dry.
Step 8: Gluing the Connector
Once the glue is dried on the adapter, you next need to glue the connector to the base of the can.
1. First thing to do is to add some epoxy around the bottom rim of the connector.
2. Next, screw the connector into the adapter inside the can. Remember how you loosened the can 1 or 2 turns, do this again.
3. Place the bottom of the can on a flat area and place the connector (which is inside the can) on top of it. You may have to adjust the connector until the bottom of the can is sitting flush
4. Leave to dry for a good hour or so.
5. Test to make sure that the bottom screws into the can and everything is working as it should. You may have to add some more epoxy around the connector and bottom of the can.
If you want you can just leave it as is and your done. I wanted to add a small tube inside mine to secure the goods inside.
Step 9: Adding a Tube to the Inside
1. Cut the 40mm coupling in half and sand flat the cut edge
2. Cut a piece of 40 PVC tube so it will fit inside the can and glue the 40mm coupling to one end
3. Next, you need to glue the tube to the bottom of the secret can. Add some epoxy to the bottom section of the tube (the bit with the coupling attached) and glue in the middle of the base of the can
4. Once dried, add a 40mm cap as a lid to the top of the tube
5. Screw the base into the can.

I am a Canadian who now lives in a 1940's Colonial home in coastal Connecticut. My husband and I have been renovating our home room by room over the past six years, sharing the process on my blog. We have loved bringing character back to our eighty year old home through lots of hands-on projects.
Photography has been a passion of mine since college, where I eventually found myself in interiors photography, which I love so much. I love how you can bring a space to life and capture it for others to experience, as well as collaboration with designers. For design, I always approach a room with the final images in mind, ensuring that all the sightlines tell a story and showcase the personality of the space.
My aesthetic is pretty traditional, with a more streamlined, modern bent. I love using lots of color, pattern, and texture to create layered spaces that feel collected over time, and often feature a heavy dose of vintage furniture. I am very focused on functionality as well, as every space needs to work functionally, ahead of the more fun, aesthetic choices.
Absolutely! I would recommend selecting classic materials for hard finishes, where I do find that more modern options can feel dated more quickly. I also would not shy away from color, as it completely changes the feeling of a room as paint is the fastest way to make your home feel your own. There are a few things I wish I had decided out of the gate, like determining the trim profiles for casing, baseboards, etc. at the start, so that there was consistent millwork throughout, adding soundproofing into walls when they were open, and upgrading all our switches to one chic style out of the gate. I would lean into the process and ensure you're making at least one choice in every room that gives you pause, as I can guarantee those little risks are what you will love most at the end.
We are obsessed with the Dibs Chair! After my son previously coexisted alongside some darker, non-performance fabric upholstered pieces in our home, it was immediately clear that babies and toddlers are best suited to lighter colored fabrics with some serious performance properties. So, the Nomad, Snow fabric was the perfect choice to hold up to his sticky fingers, with its Crypton treatment. I love how the creamy color highlights the arched shape of the chair against our blue grasscloth. I wanted to play up the shape of the arms with some subtle Luxe Velvet, White piping that brings in a new texture as well, and the Ebony legs were chosen to pop off the light blue rug. Our Dibs Chair has held up great to an active toddler and has been the perfect size for our petite nursery - the footprint is great for the small space, but is also big enough for an adult and a toddler at bedtime.
Up until my son was born, this space served as my tiny light and airy home office and featured Chinoiserie wallpaper, a large vintage rug, and an antique wood desk dating back to the 1800's. When my son was born, we moved my office and all my prized antiques to another space in our home and transformed this room into his nursery. To completely change the vibe of the space, I painted the trim and ceiling in Farrow & Ball Oval Room Blue, wallpapered the walls in a Robin's Egg Blue Wallpaper from Annie Selke, added a blue wool rug from Annie Selke, and a flush mount fixture from Circa Lighting. To furnish the space, we added a wood crib from Nestig, a vintage campaign dresser that we refinished while living in our first apartment seven years ago, and our Dibs Chair.
I wanted this space to feel calming and quiet for both us and our very busy son, and the entire vibe feels very soothing now. I can't believe how effective paint and wallpaper can be at transforming a space.
