Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister is progressing well but he is unlikely to return until the end of the year.
Ahead of Liverpool’s League Cup quarter-final encounter on Wednesday (20 December) at Anfield, Pep Lijnders has delivered the team news. He has provided an update on Mac Allister saying the 24-year-old doesn’t feel the pain anymore.
“Alexis is progressing well, he doesn’t have pain anymore, which is a good thing. It was worse than we first thought, but he is progressing well, no pain. Let’s see if we can progress him,” said Lijnders.
According to a report from The Mirror, Mac Allister will be missing until the New Year.
The Argentine midfielder picked up an injury against Sheffield United and has missed the previous two games for the Reds. He is expected to miss the League Cup tie against West Ham as well as the mouth-watering Premier League clash against Arsenal.
Meanwhile, Ryan Gravenberch hasn’t suffered a serious injury and he is expected to train on Tuesday ahead of the game. Diogo Jota is still out injured while youngster Ben Doak will need surgery.
Huge blow for the Reds
After failing to beat Manchester United at home, Jurgen Klopp will be looking for a response against the Hammers. It’s important at this stage to keep winning every game and build up momentum.
Before Christmas, the Reds will take on league leaders Arsenal and it’s going to be a massive game. The Gunners are leading the table by just one point from Liverpool, and Klopp will be aiming to reclaim the top position once again.
Mac Allister has been outstanding for the club since he joined in the summer, and losing him for crucial games is a big blow for the club. The Reds do have Gravenberch, Endo, Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai as other options, while Trent Alexander-Arnold can play in midfield as well.
Joel Matip is a long-term absentee and he is unlikely to return before the end of the season. With fixtures coming up thick and fast, Liverpool will hope to get Mac Allister at the earliest.

WESTFIELD CHURCH HISTORY
JILL A. MOSSEY
CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY 105
Dr. Brian Donohue-Lynch
I decided to do my research project on the history of my church.
I thought for a while about what topic to choose. We were told
to take an "anthropological" look at our community. I thought
what better to look at than our church. Our church gives a lot
to the community and to its members. I have found a bond with
the members that I have never found with any other group of people.
Church is a part of my culture. As Rev. Fine states, "Westfield
is an active and vibrant congregation. There is a special bond
The information for this project was given to me by Mr. Robert
Spencer, Church Historian and Rev. William Fine, present pastor.
OUTLINE HISTORY OF WESTFIELD CHURCH
1. Ecclesiastical Background
- 1715 The First Church in Killingly was organized. The meeting
house was built in 1714 on a site at the foot of Killingly Hill.

Subject to strict conditions, a proposal to extend Peabody’s Wilpinjong coal mine has been found in a preliminary assessment that the project is approvable.
The preliminary assessment report has been referred to the independent Planning Assessment Commission (PAC) by the Department of Planning and Environment for review.
Peabody Energy proposes to construct a new open cut pit and expand a number of its existing open cut pits.
The expansion would extend the life of the mine by 7 years, and increase the coal production rate from 12.6 million tonnes per year to 13 million tonnes per year.
In response to community feedback of more than 700 submissions, the Department has included a number of draft conditions in its report.

From Timothy Pickering
Philadelphia April 11 1798.
I do myself the honor to inclose copies of the instructions to and dispatches from the Envoys of the United States at Paris.1 No statement of the facts described in the latter can give them their proper force: but the facts as related by the envoys, with the manner and all their circumstances, carry irresistable evidence to every fair and unprejudiced mind, that this display of corruption and injustice exhibits the true character of the French Government; and that all the propositions made to our envoys have been authorized and required by the Directory itself: Yet Mr Jefferson says that there is no evidence that the Directory have any participation in or knowledge of this infamous business! That Talleyrand was known to be an unprincipled man; and that all the evil lies at his door! I am with great respect, sir your most obt servt
1. On 3 April President Adams sent to the House of Representatives the decoded dispatches from the envoys to France, and on 6 April the House decided to have 1,200 copies of each printed for distribution. Sen. James Lloyd sent GW copies on 9 April (see GW to Lloyd, 15 April, n.1). With the publication of the dispatches telling how the French foreign minister Talleyrand had received the U.S. commissioners and the demands that he had made through his agents X, Y, and Z, the rising tide of indignation in the country led to the rapid enactment of President Adams’s proposals for strengthening naval defenses and for protecting American mercantile interests. The Federalists followed up on this in June and July by pushing through Congress the repressive Alien and Sedition Acts. Congress in May also enacted a bill authorizing the creation of a provisional army, and in July after GW had become commander in chief, it voted to enlarge significantly the regular army (see James McHenry to GW, 3 July 1798, n.1).

What Is Industrial Automation?
Integrating automation is the future of manufacturing. At it's most basic essence, automation is the utilization of intelligence in an industrial process to accomplish manufacturing work. Industrial automation can take on many forms including items such as controls, tanks, mixers, robotics, 3d printing, and a host of many others.
The Appeal of Automation
Efficiency is the name of the game in automation. Automation appeal is growing fast and invading a number of reputable industries including hospitals, writing, manufacturing, and packaging. This short list of industries is just barely scratching the surface. In a recent New York Times piece, it was reported that, "A machine that administers sedatives recently began treating patients at a Seattle hospital. At a Silicon Valley hotel, a bellhop robot delivers items to people’s rooms. Last spring, a software algorithm wrote a breaking news article about an earthquake that The Los Angeles Times published." In the past few months, our team at MXD Process has witnessed an automated continuous still, a robotic bottle packager, and a teachable robot that could learn multiple tasks suitable for a variety of industries. Automation is here. It is in our homes, smartphones, automobiles, and much more. It's improving at a quick rate and its not going anywhere anytime soon.
Shifts In Manufacturing Automation
With every year Manufacturing's role is in a state of change. As innovation advances, the economy will shift and the necessity of increased productivity will become a constant question mark. This question mark is perpetuated by the need for companies to rely more heavily on automation and all the services needed to operate. With the constant onslaught of developing automation technologies such as 3d printing and robotics, industrial manufacturers are getting high tech. The ability to efficiently produce products of all sizes and materials is becoming more and more prevalent. It is to no surprise that larger companies are taking the plunge into automation with little to no reservation. As robotics and 3d printers become more affordable, medium and smaller sized companies will be jumping in as well. Needless to say, the continual incorporation of automation into the manufacturing industry will be interesting.
What better news for manufacturers than the sight of new opportunities and increased demand for products? Global manufacturing is on the rise. As manufacturing phases into the future, a new set of consumers will arrive along with a ton of new markets to be a part of. According to technolgy futurist Jim Pinto in a recent article on AutomationWorld.com, "As a new global consumer class emerges in developing nations and innovations spark additional demand, global manufacturers will have substantial new opportunities. Innovative automation systems will be the core of future manufacturing growth".
The Industrial Re-Revolution
Automation arrived on the scene and has never looked back. As the manufacturing industry continues to progress year over year its astonishing to look how far we have come. In the infographic below, you will be able to visually travel through a timeline to guide you through the evolution of industrial manufacturing over the last hundred years. From manufacturing companies initial adoption of automation the bright future manufacturing, this is the Industrial Re-Revolution Infographic.

City of New Port Richey to Host Business Appreciation Breakfast
The City of New Port Richey will be hosting a business appreciation breakfast at the Recreation and Aquatic Center located at 6630 Van Buren Street on Tuesday, April 17, 2018 at 8:00 a.m.
The event is a way for the City to thank local businesses for being a valued part of our community. In addition to a hearty meal before they begin their workday, guests will be treated to a brief presentation by Robert Gibbs. Mr. Gibbs is nationally known for his work in urban retail planning and operations and will share with the business community the results of his New Port Richey Retail Market Analysis. He will also offer ideas on best practices for retail operations and share with them what he has observed while working with many other Florida cities.
“It has been a considerable journey for most of our New Port Richey businesses,” stated Debbie L. Manns, New Port Richey City Manager. “We want to let the businesses know how much we appreciate their contributions to the residents of our great community. Our business owners are engaged and give back in so many different ways and we are thankful.”
The idea came from City Council, many of whom have owned businesses. They expressed the need to let business owners know the City is concerned about their wellbeing and this event is the perfect opportunity to do so.
“There is a new vibe in New Port Richey these days,” Ms. Manns said. “Much of it is attributed to our business owners and that they have stuck with us for so many years.”
For more information on this event, please contact Mario Iezzoni, Economic Development Director, at (727) 853-1019 or via electronic mail at [email protected].

The city of Atlanta is faced with another challenge in the coronavirus outbreak: Hundreds of homeless people are sleeping at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
For years, airport officials and police have worked to discourage homeless people from spending the night at the facility when there’s inclement weather. The problem drew attention and concern earlier this year before the pandemic hit in full force.
It’s only gotten worse.
By late March, Hartsfield-Jackson general manager John Selden was saying there were 300 people in the terminal overnight.
Under normal circumstances, the airport has 100 to 150 homeless people in the airport on colder nights, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms told Atlanta City Council members during a teleconference briefing on Tuesday.
“It’s become an even bigger challenge as many of our shelters have closed down and many of the places that our homeless population disperses to are no longer available to them,” she said.
They take MARTA to the airport’s domestic terminal to take a nap, charge their cell phones or buy food, since many of the city’s restaurants are now closed, Bottoms said.
She said the airport has removed seating in the domestic terminal atrium in order to allow more space for social distancing.
As the pandemic continues, the airport has far less passenger traffic due to the precipitous decline in travel as people stay at home. The terminal is quieter and less congested with travelers.
Airport workers are cleaning several times a night. They have raised concerns about the increase in the number of homeless people there.
“We’re dealing with many people who have underlying challenges, quite often mental health challenges,” which makes it difficult to refer them to other shelters, Bottoms said. She said the city is trying to redirect people without driving them to other areas to congregate, which also cause problems.
The mayor said that, for the most part, those at the airport “appear to be asymptomatic.” But she added there’s no way to know if people have the coronavirus. Medical facilities are mostly only testing people who have symptoms of COVID-19. She said the city is also trying to procure face masks for the homeless.
Bottoms said the city is considering using the Atlanta City Detention Center to house some. “But again, you’re dealing with a population that is often resistant to receiving assistance and, in addition to that, layering on that people just may not want to go into a jail for housing,” she said. “But we are continuing to explore that.”
She said the city’s recreation centers had been considered, but those centers are already being used to distribute meals for students and she is concerned about the community response to housing homeless in the rec centers.
“Everybody says they want to help, right up until the bus pulls up into their neighborhood recreation center,” Bottoms said. “It would be my preference that we use another facility that’s not in the heart of a community.”
For homeless people who have the coronavirus or have symptoms and are awaiting test results, the Georgia Department of Public Health is leasing a downtown Atlanta hotel for isolation and quarantine.

Everything was working fine. Then I updated the firmware. Nightmare!
First problem…one of my joysticks (controller) only ran the motors in reverse. If I push forward, nothing. So I saw a similar topic, so I decided to calibrate the controller. Now it doesn’t work at all. Any suggestion as to what to do? I have a robotics class at 2 this afternoon. I’m hoping I can get this working by then.
Oh wait. I just restarted everything (our team name is Ctrl-Alt-Del so I thought I’d try that). I am back to working only in reverse. Help please.
Next problem is the other IQ…the controller works fine. Do I have the motors in backwards? upside down? Which way do they need to go so that I can drive like a car - right motor pushed forward makes right drive train go forward. (I have to pull back to make it go forward or move forward on right to make left go forward - that is no good.)
When you run did the joystick calibration, did you fully rotate both joysticks around 360 degrees to the furthest they will go? Initially the screen will display values 0 __ 255 for each of the 4 joystick channels, then after a few seconds it should display 127 on the middle line. Once this occurs, you can press Check to save the settings.
For the motor drive train reversal issue, have you tried the directions here?
i did move them all around.
the calibration numbers wouldn’t change (b would change but always came back to this)
A 133 127 139
B 119 128 149
C 128 128 128
D 134 127 134
to fix the motor reversal…using VEX IQ Firmware Update Utility (from directions) didn’t do anything. i used VEX IQ Firmware Update. that worked. my motors are working. yay! one problem fixed.
i tried the calibration again. now i have
A 127 127 127
B 119 128 119
C 0 128 255
D 8 127 255
and the right joystick works fine now
When you start the Calibrate Joystick process, you have about five seconds to have all joysticks reach their maximum and minimum values. After you run the calibration process, do the values of the A and B channel joysticks change as you rotate that joystick?

On Sunday my sister Vera and I were happy to see that June Gloom was nonexistent. We dropped our brother off at the Orange County airport for his trip back to Dallas and decided another trip to the beach was warranted. We had a good meal at Dukes at the Huntington Beach Pier with this view from our table…
After our meal we headed to the pier to walk it and enjoy the views.
I’ll have a full post with this pelican as the star later.
The crashing waves looked like snow from above.
This post is being published on Tuesday June 14th, Flag day. I will be in the air for a few hours and then on the road home.
Happy Flag Day from Huntington Beach and Newport Beach.
Hope y’all aren’t getting tired of Huntington Beach. Some of these shots are conventional signs and the others are things that are “signs” that let you know you are definitely at the beach.
The Huntington Beach Pier was full of signs advertising their upcoming Surf City Marathon and Half Marathon.
It’s good to know the beach rules!
Glad he didn’t stop…
Pelicans are a good sign that you are close to the seashore.
Oil rigs and surfers are another sign that you are at Huntington Beach.
I’m linking to Signs, Signs with Lesley. Click over to see more signs from around the world.
The Round Robin Challenge for today is Birds.
It comes to us by way of the challenge pool and was suggested by Robinella, author of Robinella’s Blog.
From birds in the wild, to the canary you keep in a cage on your desk, it’s all good, and I can’t wait to see it. Click on over to read the rules and join in…
These first two shots were taken from a ferry in the Strait of Juan de Fuca between Canada and the U.S.A.
This Pelican shot was taken at the Malibu Lagoon in Southern California.
This shot of the Canadian geese and one orange beak goose that kind of looks like a Greenland white fronted Goose was taken at Bothell Landing in Bothell, Washington.
Photobucket is holding all my photos that I stored on their site from 2007-2015 hostage replacing them with ugly grey and black boxes and asking for a large ransom to retrieve them. It is a slow process to go through all my posts deleting the ugly boxes.
Susan at A Southern Day Dreamer started Outdoor Wednesday where you can post any outdoor photos you’d like to share.
My outdoor photos this week were taken Saturday at the beach and Tuesday on a walk with my bloggy friend Willow.
These little Sanderlings are so much fun to watch because they move really quickly all together.
On Saturday it seemed like the SeaGulls wanted to fly right at my camera.
We have seen lots of Pelicans flying just above the water on our walks. This is the first one we’ve seen just resting on the sand.
It’s been raining in Southern California for a few days now so on our walk today Willow and I saw this waterfall that we generally do not see during most of our dry days here.
Quail are the State Bird for California and we saw a nice little group of them. Such a great looking bird.
Usually these little birds flit about so much I can’t get a photo but this group decided to sit still long enough for me to click away.
More evidence of our rain here. This little run-off creek is generally bone dry on our walks but today it was babbling quite nicely for us!
For more Oudoor Wednesday visit Susan here.
Photobucket is holding all my photos I stored with them from 2007-2015 hostage unless I pay them a lot of money. I’m slowly cleaning up many posts from this time period and deleting their ugly grey and black boxes with a ransom request. Such a time consuming bother.

In these pages you will find reports of advances and key observations that will affect the care of children with allergic and immunologic diseases now and in the near future. The pediatrician is poised to identify infants and children at risk for disease and to intervene. Along the themes of preventing and predicting allergy, several articles present clinical and laboratory evidence that respiratory allergy, asthma, and allergic diseases may be predicted on the grounds of early lung mechanics, atopic disposition, and exposure to allergen. Potential interventions such as the use of probiotics and allergen avoidance are highlighted by several articles, but the area is complex, and additional articles emphasize the role of exposure to tobacco, pollutants, and respiratory infections in determining outcomes. Avoiding a progression of allergic disease and preventing allergies remain a key focus of research; however, as indicated by several articles, a perplexing controversy remains regarding the impact of reduced infection (the so-called hygiene hypothesis) on increasing rates of allergic disease. Notions about allergen avoidance are being refined; for example, the role of food avoidance in prevention of atopic dermatitis and food allergy is becoming less clear as studies reviewed herein show that delayed introduction of certain allergenic solids may not prevent allergy and may increase risks. Several selected articles focus on the importance of, and methods for, reducing exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, focusing on genetic risks, and identifying tobacco-smoke–related inflammation and modalities to improve intervention. Key observations in the area of food allergy present a potential for improved diagnosis and management. In particular, several articles present practical lessons regarding instructing patients on self-injection of epinephrine and pitfalls in avoiding allergens (eg, exposure during kissing). Major advances in atopic dermatitis include the clinical relevance of skin infection and the identification of loss-of-function mutations in the filaggrin gene, which result in skin-barrier dysfunction. Several articles paint a story of a disrupted skin barrier that may predispose to allergen sensitization, which in turn leads to further allergic disease. A variety of articles on asthma diagnosis and management were published just before the new National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Expert Panel 3 guidelines for the diagnosis and management of asthma and address evolving paradigms. For example, studies included here address issues of asthma classification, monitoring, and treatment. Practical implications to improve monitoring (eg, the use of spirometry), treatment (eg, practical tips for the use of metered-dose inhalers), and prevention are highlighted. Articles about the use of inhaled steroids continue to address chronic compared with intermittent use, impact on adrenal function, and whether these medications alter the course of asthma (an area of continued controversy). There is increasing interest in, and evidence for efficacy of, immunotherapy and immunomodulators. Reviewers selected a dozen articles on these themes that reveal the promise of allergen immunotherapy to prevent and effectively treat allergic disease; modalities of treatment that may be more child-friendly (eg, oral administration rather than injection); modifications of allergens that may allow fewer adverse effects, better efficacy, and faster onset; and the mechanism of these therapies. Several articles on primary and secondary immunodeficiency provide insights into disease pathogenesis, diagnosis, and emerging therapies. Our reviewers were asked to identify original research articles of interest, but several of them felt obliged to point out that the pediatrician should be aware of a number of superb review articles, practice articles, and guidelines on various aspects of pediatric allergy, asthma, and immunology. In the coming year, we will post such identified articles on the Section on Allergy and Immunology Web site (www.aap.org/sections/allergy).

(Reuters) - Sydney Olympics marathon champion Naoko Takahashi has called for more transparency in the selection process for Japan’s athletics team after Tomomi Tanaka was left out of the squad for this year’s world championships.
Tanaka won the Yokohama International Marathon in two hours, 26 minutes and 57 seconds last November, the only Japanese winner of any of the three races that formed the qualifying process for the world championships.
The 27-year-old was controversially omitted from the three-women marathon team for the Aug. 22-30 championships in Beijing, however, with Risa Shigetomo getting a spot in her place.
“When the only explanation we get is that strong runners have been chosen, you can’t understand,” Takahashi told the Kyodo news agency.
“With the focus on the selection for next year’s Olympics, we need an announcement that will satisfy those who are left out. Transparency is essential.”
Takahashi, a director of the Japan Association of Athletics Federations, knows well the pain of being left out of a team after missing out on defending her Olympic title in 2004.
“Personally, I think Tanaka was a step ahead,” Takahashi added. “Shigetomo must feel very awkward as well. Regardless of whether an athlete wins or loses, we must do what we can to help them stay positive.”
Shigetomo, who finished third in the Osaka Marathon in 2:26:39, is coached by Yutaka Taketomi, who also helps run the Japanese women’s marathon team.

POINT MUGU, Calif., Aug. 23 (UPI) -- An upgraded version of Raytheon Joint Standoff Weapon is undergoing integrated testing by the U.S. Navy.
In its first test, the JSOW C-1 was retargeted while in flight to strike a moving ship target.
"This flight test further demonstrates that JSOW C-1 can receive third-party target updates in-flight, retarget after release and strike a precise point on a moving ship using the weapon's autonomous terminal seeker," said Cmdr. Samuel Hanaki of the U.S. Navy's Precision Strike Weapons Program Office. "The program remains on track for reaching initial operational capability in 2013."
The JSOW is a medium-range glide bomb that is released at a distance outside the range of traditional air defense weaponry. The C-1 version, or Block III, adds a Link-16 weapon data link and the capability to strike moving maritime targets.
Raytheon said in the test at the Point Mugu Sea Test Range two maneuvering ships were used at potential targets. The pilot of a Navy F/A-18F Super Hornet targeted the smaller of the ships prior to the weapon's launch. Following launch, control of the JSOW was handed to a second aircraft, which directed it to another ship about 56 miles from the weapon's launch point.
"JSOW C-1 brings U.S. and allied warfighters the unique ability to engage moving ships as far as 60 miles away with an air-launched precision strike weapon," said Celeste Mohr, Raytheon Missile Systems' JSOW program director.


A woman who was charged with DUI in 2010 is still fighting the criminal charge in court. She claims that she did drink a small amount of alcohol before driving, but the amount she had consumed was not nearly enough to cause her to become impaired or to break the law.
Operating a vehicle safely on our Georgia roads takes a certain level of skill, but most importantly, drivers must always remain attentive when behind the wheel in order to avoid causing a minor or serious car crash. One mistake, like failing to notice a stop sign or forgetting to check one's blind spot, could result in an accident.
Getting behind the wheel after having had too much to drink is a very serious mistake, but after all is said and done, it is just that -- a mistake.
It's well known that enforcement of underage drinking in the Athens area is especially strict. As we reported in a previous post, arrests of minors for charges of alcohol consumption is higher in Clarke County than other portions of Georgia with similar size and populations. These stringent measures extend to drunk driving as well, making it exceedingly difficult for underage residents to get away with drinking and then getting behind the wheel.
In Georgia, an individual who is initially pulled over by police for failing to turn on his or her vehicle's lights or for speeding could quickly be suspected of drunk driving if police happen to see that a driver's eyes are bloodshot or when police happen to notice that a driver is having a little trouble finding his or her driver's license in one's wallet.
Police in Georgia reported that over the weekend a Fox 5 Atlanta news anchor was involved in a car accident. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured in the accident. This is especially good news for the evening news co-anchor since she was arrested after the crash. Police said that the anchor might have been driving drunk when the crash occurred.
Earlier this week on our Athens, Georgia, DUI defense law blog, we had mentioned that some college students and local residents are concerned about the number of underage drinking arrests local law enforcement officers are making each year. Although officers can issue a citation for underage drinking, hundreds of minors each year are being arrested instead in Clarke County for the offense. We also mentioned that an arrest results in far more serious consequences compared to a citation.
College students in Georgia and throughout the entire country may think there is no harm in letting loose on the weekends by drinking a couple of beers or taking a couple of shots of liquor, even when they are under the age of 21. However, underage students can actually face some very harsh consequences for drinking alcohol if they are caught by law enforcement authorities.
When someone is accused of DUI in Athens, the individual may certainly be worried about facing serious legal penalties for his or her mistake, such as losing one's driving privileges and having a criminal conviction on one's record. But folks are often equally worried about the shame and embarrassment that also comes with a DUI arrest.

I was recently sent a lovely parcel from my great friend at Spice Kitchen UK…
A great selection of Mexican chillies, chilli powders, and in that gorgeous little box, Persian saffron…how lucky am I??? The first thing I wanted to do was play with the dried chillies and make a great a new sauce for mine and my boys delectation..
I’ve read enough recipes and made enough similar sauces in the past not to need a recipe, but I did make a note of what I did in order to be able to share it..it all began with roasting lots of lovely vegetables, and soaking chillies..
4 large long red peppers, cut in half length ways and stalks & seeds removed
5 medium ripe tomatoes, cut into quarters
3 medium red onions, peeled and cut into quarters
4 cloves garlic, in their skins
2 ancho chillies
2 guajillo chillies
2 chipotle meco chillies
4 chipotle morita chillies
1-2 tbsp tomato puree
1-2 tbsp runny honey
2 tsp roasted ground cumin
2 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp cocoa powder (or more if you choose)
Apple cider vinegar or lemon juice to taste
Salt to taste
Please note: my versions of teaspoonfuls or tablespoonfuls are usually of the heaped variety, I tend to be quite generous with portions and measurements! I would suggest that you need to play around with the measurements, and therefore the ensuing flavours for yourself, start with my basic suggestions and add more if necessary for your tastes.
Preheat the oven to 150C
Spread the vegetables in single layers across a couple of oven trays and drizzle with oil of your choice
Slow roast the vegetables for an hour or until the peppers are all wrinkly and starting to chat, don’t let them burn, then remove the pans from the oven and let the vegetables cool, and remove the skins form the garlic cloves
In the same oven, spread the dried chillies in a single layer in an oven tray and lightly toast, just until they start to release an aroma, it doesn’t take very long at all. Keep a close eye on them as they can burn easily
Allow the chillies to cool until you can handle them, then, wearing gloves, remove stalks, seeds and veins
Break up the skins and put them into a bowl with bowling water and leave for 1-2 hours until soft
The photo above shows the bits you remove from the chillies, and below, what you’re left with..
Scrape all of the roasted vegetables & juices & oil from the pan/s into a blender and, add the softened chillies and a little bit of the soaking water, and blend everything into a thick sauce; I did mine in two parts as my blender pots wasn’t big enough for it all at once
Add the blended sauce to a pan over a medium heat, with some additional oil of your choice
Add the roasted cumin and dried oregano and cook it through, mixing all the elements together
Add tomato puree and honey and stir through
Add cocoa powder and cook it through for a minute or two, then add either lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to taste, I used about 3 tbsp of lemon juice, I feel it lifts the flavour without adding a sharpness
Add salt if you feel it needs it
Cook the sauce down to a consistency you like, alternatively, you may even need to add some water to thin it, again, it’s all down to choice
Store in a clean jar. I have found that chilli sauces store well for a few weeks in the fridge. However, to be safe, you could add a thin layer of olive oil over the top of the sauce to preserve it, although the honey and/or salt should also assist in preserving the sauce.
The addition of the cocoa powder is quite typical in Mexican dishes, and it was the first time I’ve added it to anything I’ve made; it adds a real richness to the sauce, you don’t really taste it as chocolatey, but you can smell the cocoa when you open the jar, which all adds to its loveliness.
I’ve had this in my fridge for a couple of weeks now, and the flavour keeps developing and just getting better.
I’ve eaten this sauce in various ways, and am pleased to say that it’s had a thumbs up from my boys and friends of ours 🙂
This was my lunch one day this week..spiced spinach flatbread base, topped with my chilli sauce & cheese, enjoyed with a lovely fresh salsa of chopped parsley, coriander, dill, garlic, Verjus, olive oil & lots of spices…yum!!!!!!
I am sharing my sauce with the lovely visitors to this week’s Fiesta Friday, co hosted by the lovely Laura and Su, I hope everyone likes it – have a great weekend x

Topical over the counter steroids can be used for treating heat rashes or sweat rashes. Not only can steroids help control painful itching and burning associated with summer skin rashes; they can considerably improve the patient’s quality of life. In this article, we will cover how to use topical steroidal prickly heat rash treatment as well as the best brands you can use to soothe heat rash or sweat rash.
What are topical steroids?
Commonly available topical steroids contain corticosteroids such as hydrocortisone, triamcinolone or fluocinonide. These can help reduce skin inflammation caused by various skin disorders including bug bites, poison ivy, sweat rashes, prickly heat rash, contact dermatitis or eczema. They work by reducing the skin cells’ ability to produce inflammatory chemicals which are typically released due to different triggers such as allergens, insect bites, poison, heat, dirt and sweat.
What is the strongest over the counter topical steroid?
Over the counter topical corticosteroids for sweat rash treatment are available in the form of creams, gels, lotions or ointments. The strongest topical steroids are ointments since they have a greasy base that adheres better to the skin. Ointments also have lowest stinging, burning and other painful reactions when they come in contact with the skin. Today, many over the counter topical steroids brands are available in the form of sprays, solutions and other complex formulations.
The strength of topical steroids is determined by different classes with Class 1 steroids being the most potent and Class 7 being the least potent.
Can over the counter topical steroids cure heat rash?
The answer to this question is no. Topical steroids are not a cure for heat rash and they only provide symptomatic relief from the pain, itching and burning associated with the rash. Also, it is not advisable to use strong steroidal creams on the skin for more than a few days at a time. This is because; the steroids thin down delicate skin, especially in case of babies. Do avoid application of strong topical steroids on the heat rash present on the face since the rashes can also worsen from prolonged use. The best way to treat heat rashes is to keep the skin cool. Here are some more heat rash prevention tips:
- Stay indoors. Avoid the hot sun in peak hours between 10 am and 2 pm.
- Wear a wide brimmed hat. Seek shade under a tree or a building where possible.
- Drink plenty of water to keep the body cool inside out.
- Take a cool shower.
- Keep the skin cool and dry.
- If the prickly heat is causing extreme discomfort, apply Calamine Lotion or Aloe Vera gel on it.
- You can use topical steroidal cream, but do opt for lowest potency creams. OTC 1% hydrocortisone is the best. We will discuss some of the best over the counter topical corticosteroids brands that are mild yet effective for prickly heat treatment, later in this guide.
Safest over the counter topical steroid cream
For babies older than 3 months you can use the following steroidal treatment
- 01% Flucinolone acetonide in oil base.
- 05% desonnide hydrogel is also safe for use as prickly heat rash treatment.
It is best to consult the baby’s pediatrician before using over the counter topical steroid creams for baby’s gentle skin.
For children over 1 year, the following categories of steroid creams and gels are relative safer:
- 05% Fluticasone in lotion or cream form.
- 1% Prednicarbate cream or ointment
Top over the counter topical steroids brands for sweat rash treatment
Mid strength brands (Class 4)
- Cloderm® Cream-contains clocortolone pivalate
- Synalar® ointment- contains 0.025% fluocinolone acetonide
- Valisone ® ointment- contains 0.1% betamethasone valerate
Lower strength brand (Class 5)
- Elocon® cream contains 0.1% mometasone furoate
Mild strength (Class 6)
- Aristocort® cream contains 0.025% triamcinolone acetonide
Least potent (Class 7)
- Nutracort®- lotion contains 2% or 2.5% hydrocortisone.
- Cortaid® cream or spray contains 0.5 to 1% hydrocortisone.
The above medicines can be used safely for prickly heat treatment. However, do talk to your dermatologist if these are safe for long term use, and particularly for treating heat rash in babies. If the rash continues or appears to worsen, have it checked immediately.

Enhanced Gate Driver with Variable Turn On and Turn Off Speeds
ISSN: 0148-7191, e-ISSN: 2688-3627
Published April 02, 2019 by SAE International in United States
Annotation ability available
Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBT) are widely used for the vehicle traction inverter. Switching characteristics of these devices contribute to the inverter total loss and inverter efficiency is affected by the energy loss during each switching event. Traditional gate driver circuits are usually designed to meet the worst-case scenario and result is high switching loss of the IGBTs. Gate driver turn on and turn off resistances are selected accordingly for the worst-case scenario and their purpose is to protect the device from overshoot voltage that can cause the avalanche breakdown of the device. The gate charge and discharge circuit is usually composed of one or two resistors and the loss during turn-on and turn-off time is not optimized for all of the vehicle-operating conditions. Since microprocessor (μP) monitors the dc-bus voltage, output current and torque command, it can also determine if the device switching speed needs to be changed under different operating conditions. In order to reduce the switching losses during all operating conditions, the gate charge and discharge resistance has to vary. Enhanced gate driver control proposed in this paper employs two sets of push-pull device drivers that have different resistor values. This method of gate drive ensures that the device switching speed is optimized for all vehicle-operating conditions and the total inverter efficiency is increased.
Furthermore, conventional gate drive has large gate resistance that increases the power module switching losses and it affects the vehicle fuel economy. This work proposes the enhanced gate drive circuit that optimizes the device switching turn-on, turn-off speeds and minimizes the device switching losses. This paper will show the detailed gate-drive-circuit design that utilizes multiple paths for gate charge and gate discharge.

Special Rapporteurs worried about the massive arrests made during the night of May 24.
Lisa-Marie Gervais, 31 May 2012
Original French Text: http://www.ledevoir.com/societe/education/351317/l-onu-fait-la-lecon-a-quebec-sur-sa-loi-speciale
The United Nations (UN) has snubbed the government of Quebec, exhorting it to respect the rights of students and demonstrators. It has also criticized the Special Law adopted by the Charest government, emphasizing that this legislation “unduly restricts the right of association and peaceful assembly in the province of Quebec”.
The UN stands by the report prepared by two independent experts who specified being in contact with the government, which had promised to clarify these issues. The special rapporteurs were particularly concerned by the “acts of serious violence” and by the massive arrests made during the night of May 24 when at least 700 demonstrators were arrested across the province of Quebec.
“It is regrettable that the authorities resorted to a restrictive approach rather than to dialogue and mediation in order to resolve the present situation,” Maina Kiai, one of these Rapporteurs, had made known via communique. According to Mr. Kiai, Bill 78 excessively blames the student associations, and the amount of the fines (up to $125,000) is “disproportionate” and “of a nature to dissuade the students from exercising their right of peaceful assembly.”
In their report, the two experts had insisted on the importance of protecting the students’ right of peaceful assembly, the right of expression, and the right of association. They also take up a good part of the arguments presented by the students who, along with unions and other civil society organizations and individuals, have challenged Bill 78 in the courts last Friday.
The new municipal regulation adopted by the City of Montreal, also aiming to restrict the demonstrations, has received its share of criticism. The Rapporters suspect that the regulation immediately assumes that the assemblies are not peaceful. A legislation requiring that a route be furnished also should not be used “abusively to restrict the right of peaceful assembly”. And as for wearing a mask? Individuals should have the right to dress as they wish as long as this right does not infringe on the rights of others, maintained the UN.
