I left out a few points from yesterdays posting. I think it is because for various factors we are driving and eating later so I run out of steam. Anyway, here are a few photos I missed.
The first is the JC Penny “mother store” in Kemmerer, ID, a town that we attempted to get a room at but none we available. We even tried a “Bates” motel.
We also saw some spectacular scenery along the way such as these shots I took when we went off on a dirt road in search of an historic cabin that we never found.
Today we’re heading out of Montpelier, ID towards Pocatello, ID and points west. We stop every hour or so to walk around. We saw a sign for a hot springs and thought it was time for a break so we pulled over at a town named Lava Hot Springs, ID.
Babs & Jane went searching for “facilities” and discovered the city’s springs park which have springs in temperatures ranging from 112 to 105 degrees. You can stay all day for $5.
In Blackfoot, ID we found the ex-Uniroyal tire girl recycled to the attraction for Martha s cafe.
Blackfoot is also home to the Idaho Potato Museum.
The museum has all sorts of potato farming information, equipment and all things potato. Seniors can spend all the time they want for $2.50, such a deal!
Next we set of in search of Atomic City, a modern ghost town and the worlds first nuclear Reactor.
We thanked Babs for this exciting side trip and then travled 3 miles to the worlds first nuclear reactor, EBR2. This reactor is no longer in use but the technology that resulted from its development is still used in Europe. After the “three mile Island” incident, the US switched the way that they produce nuclear power.
This site is where the radio active debris from the Three Mile Island was transported and buried somewhere in their 900 plus acre site. Across the way is a breeder reactor which produces much of the fuel for reactors still operated.
Down the road in Arco, ID we found Pickles Restaurant, “home of the Atomic Burger”.
The town also is home of the “Devil Boat” named so because of the submarines number “666”. It served in WWII and was involved in many missions. The Cunning tower is now in the Blackfoot park.
Our next destination was Craters of the Moon National Monument. This is a park literally sitting on lava from ancient volcano s. The landscape is varied forms of volcanic rock .
Babs and Denny decided to climb this extinct volcanic cone that is over 300 feet high. It is a cone made of volcanic ash.
Our last stop was Twin Falls, ID where Evil Knievel jumped the Snake River Gouge.
This bridge spans the gorge. It is 400 feet above the gorge floor. People can base jump from the bridge without a permit. Just as we got there a guy jumped. I didn’t see it because I was slow getting from the car but everybody else saw him jump. Unfortunately, they couldn’t get a photo.
Tomorrow, Hells Canyon.
Babs Says: We came, we saw, we conquered the cones.

Great introduction to Adobe Frescho – I love Kyle´s brushes but had no idea you could use them with the app!
I would never draw a bird because they feel sooo complicated but I think it was so nice to see your though process about what should align etc. I just wish I could see more of you drawing – its so nice to see how somebody else draws and uses the tools.
I decided to start with the bird and get a feel for the tools and then work on the flower. Here is my bird and the reference image:
It was very hard to draw the white feathers, dont really know how to get them "fluffy".
My flower and reference image:
Thoughts and questions:
- What format did you use for your drawing? I feel like my crosshatching was so thick and ugly compared to yours and I thought mabie i was at a too small size because i couldnt make the size of the brush much smaller then it already was...also think it might just be that i need to work on my crosshatching skills..
- When you do your outlines with the round vector brush do you usually have the setting that makes the end and beginning smaller or do you just use it without any other settings?

Things I was unhappy about:
Very little leg room - the worst I have ever had.
We were unable to checkin online because it was 2:55 minutes before the flight (they have a 3 hour time limit that they don't tell you about until it is too late). As a result we were forced to checkin at the airport, for which they charged us 14 EUR each. I understand why they charge for airport checkin, but 14EUR is a bit high, and we wanted to checkin online - they just wouldn't let us!
Carry-on limit is very small, and applied inconsistently. Their carry-on limit is the smallest I have ever seen.

Check out David Higgs’ Director’s Cut for his latest music video ‘Is This Love’ by Bob Marley featuring LVNDSCAPE & Bolier. Shot in the favelas of Rio De Janeiro, ‘This Is Love’ is an uplifting coming of age story, following the journey of a young man’s first encounter with love during the construction of the Olympic Stadium.
“It was an interesting moment to be in Brazil while there was a political coup happening. During our time there president Dilma was impeached by her vice president and the opposition party because she had begun investigating them for fraud, so the atmosphere felt quite unstable.
The plan was always to keep an open mind and let the narrative be influenced by what we encounterd there. The Olympic construction site was always part of the treatment but when we recce’d it our fixer showed us a favela called Vila Autodromo that was being systematically demolished to make way for the new development. Most of the homes had been destroyed already, with the residents relocated much further out of the city. But there were a few remaining buildings with their owners protesting and refusing to leave. It was quite a contrast seeing this with the backdrop of the new Olympic stadiums so we decided to feed it in to the narrative.
Our first attempt to shoot was rained off and we had to re-shedule for the following weekend 10 days later. By the time we went back to shoot at Vila Autodromo it was no longer there, the last few remaining houses having been demolished and the rubble cleared. Fortunately between the two fairly unsuccessful attempts to shoot there we managed to get what we needed.
Big thanks to the amazing Brazilian cast and crew.”

The Food and Drug Administration yesterday released COVID-19 performance data for four more antibody test kits. The results come from the first collaboration between FDA, the National Institute of Health’s National Cancer Institute, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority. Meanwhile, a new video from FDA explains for the public the different categories of COVID-19 tests, such as tests for those currently infected versus those with antibodies.
FDA June 3 also approved a new sedation injection for intubated and ventilated patients in intensive care settings and non-intubated patients prior to or during surgical and other procedures. The drug’s most common side effects are hypotension, bradycardia and dry mouth.

So let’s say I home the arm. The cable is sticking out the back, the shoulder and elbow blue joint caps are facing me. This is all hunkey dorey. When I’m using the “View” tab to move the arm, the TCP move forward/backwards left/right corresponding with the arrow keys on the “TCP Position” menu.
However, I’d rather use the base move feature. This way I know I’m moving my arm relative to the base. When I switch it to “Base” move feature, it rotates my view by 90 degree clockwise, so I’m now looking at the right side profile of the arm. The TCP position arrow keys now show Y as left/right and X as forwards/backwards (!???!!?!). So say I want to move the TCP to the right, I’d naturally click on the right arrow. This however is “Y+” and moves the arm backwards. It’s technically correct as Y+ relative to the base is the direction of the cable sticking out. But in the move menu, it makes no sense at all.
How to I change this so it makes sense, or in other words, the X and Y labels correspond with the proper arrow keys?
The “View” frame is relative to the graphic in the middle. If you drag that graphic around, your arrows will move differently. “Base” is defined as the cable coming out of the base of the robot as Y+, Z+ is up, and right-hand-rule then dictates that X+ is at the back. If you’d like the change this, you just need to teach a Feature in your installation tab. This lets you define your coordinate system however you’d like. You cannot change the orientation of the built-in Base feature. Just be sure to select your newly taught Feature when jogging.
I have the same question, I basically want to swtich the Y and X axis. How do I set that in a new coordinate system ?`
Sounds like you both would benefit from the free e-learning, specifically the one that details Feature coordinates.
Tap the newly created Plane and click Edit
Switch rotation to RPY degrees, and put either 90 or -90 in for RZ. That will rotate the frame however you’d like.
Alternatively, you can use the “Teach this Frame” button and follow the on-screen wizard.
I’m not sure you’re understanding me properly. . . let me try to explain it better. The X+/- arrows are on the front and back arrows of the move page, the Y+/- arrows are on the left/right arrows. No matter the orientation of my planes, tools, or base, those labels never change. Why the labels be backwards??
I have planes set up so that X is physically L/R and Y is F/B, and they of course correspond to the labels X & Y, just not the directions of the arrows that are pointing in the TCP move. When I set up a plane so that X is F/B and Y is L/R, the position arrows are STILL in the same spot, and they “happen” to align with correct axis, however the labels are still wrong.
If I’m not understanding you correctly, disregard this post.
I have 2 URs set up for CNC machine tending. One sits with the pallet to the side, the other has the pallet directly in front.
Both cables on the bases of the URs point at my machines. My machines have X, Y and Z axis just like the robot. With the cords on the bases pointing at the machine, both URs have the same X, Y and Z travel directions as the CNCs. That’s exactly how I want it.
On both URs I have to stand sideways to the machine to get the X, Y and Z move buttons to align with the actual directions the robot moves.
Try this: When you’re facing the robot like you said in the OP with your TP in your hands in front of you, turn your body 90° CCW and that should line up your buttons with the robot movement.
I do not think it’s possible to change this since it is hard coded to the base. You’d have to add a new plane as Eric mentioned.
Facing the front of the robot does not align the arrows correctly. Facing it from this direction does.
Since that matches my CNC I like it that way.
Might be hard to see due to file size requirements, but the start of this gif is me holding X+ while Base is selected. I’m standing at the front of the cart, so the tool moves towards me.
Then I rotate the pendant and stand on the Left Hand side of the cart. I switch the Feature to be LH_Side, which has its orientation such that X+ is towards the LH side of the cart. So when I AGAIN hold X+, the tool STILL moves towards me, despite me now being on the left side.
I may definitely be misunderstanding your dilemma here, but it sounds like your issue is that the X arrows on the pendant point up and down and the Y points left to right. If you’re comparing this to, say, some math class where your 2D graph has X running left to right, then I guess you can say this is “backwards” but in reality it’s arbitrary and you can define direction/position however you want.

A freelance writer, sharing all my new discoveries with the world.
Melburnian's have the chance to see Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh during their visit to Melbourne this year. The Queen and Duke have planned to start their 'Meet the People' walk at 12:30pm on Wednesday 26th October 2011. They will begin by the National Gallery of Victoria and board their Royal Tram at Federation Square, heading south down Swanston Street to Government House Drive.
The public will get the chance to watch from St Kilda Road and Swanston Street but are advised to arrive early as the area will get very busy with spectators excited to see the Queen on what is believed to be her last visit to Australia. The Queen last visited Melbourne in 2006 for the opening of the Commonwealth Games. Her visit to Melbourne this year is part of a 10 day tour of Australia where she has already travelled to Perth, Canberra and Brisbane.
The Queen has been welcomed with open arms during her visit to Australia despite the controversy surrounding Prime Minister Julia Gillard failing to curtsey upon meeting. Regardless of the royal faux pas, Australian's have given the Queen and Duke a warm reception and Melbourne's iconic Federation Square will no doubt be full of excited fans greeting and photographing them.
Visitors should arrive well before 12:30pm for the best photo opportunities.

While most Culpwrit readers are in early stages of their careers, I heard this morning from a veteran PR pro who insisted that I call your attention to The Wall Street Journal article by Sue Shellenbarger. He said reading this article earlier in his career may have helped him avoid getting fired from his first two jobs.
As the headline suggests, employees must be self aware about how they are being perceived by bosses and peers. This self awareness is essential to job success, so set aside some time every few months to assess whether your job might be in jeopardy. If you’re just starting out in a new job, just reading the Journal’s dos and don’ts below will help ensure no surprises about where you stand in the eyes of your boss and colleagues.
Signs You Might Be in Trouble
- Your boss stops dropping by your desk with suggestions.
- You’re left out of important meetings you used to attend.
- Once-friendly colleagues start to avoid you.
- You never get any feedback.
- You never ask for any feedback.
- You start comparing yourself to mediocre peers rather than stars.
- You’re not sure what your boss cares about.
- You don’t care what your boss cares about.
How To Avoid Being Blindsided At The Office
- Find out early how your boss will evaluate your performance
- Ask specific questions about how you’re doing.
- Ask for criticism from colleagues who will tell you the truth.
- Compare yourself to high achievers.
- Maintain good relationships with bosses, peers and subordinates.
- Bristle or get defensive during performance reviews.
- Assume mastery of core job skills will make up for lacking relationship skills.
- Let yourself become isolated.
- Ignore neglectful or dismissive behavior by your boss.
- Surround yourself with allies who won’t give you honest criticism.

It is with deep sadness we announce that Trish Matheson peacefully passed away on April 30, 2021 at the age of 61 years.
She will be lovingly remembered by her children, Timothy Ross (Jessica) Matheson, Kevin John Matheson and Lisa Irene (Jayden) Matheson as “Mom” and by her grandchildren, Jackson Jeffery Matheson and Julianna Rose Matheson as “Nana Trish”.
Born and raised in Edmonton, Trish worked as a Psychiatric nurse at the Grey Nuns Hospital for over thirty years. Prior to being a nurse, Trish was an accomplished dog trainer and a proud Edmonton Eskimo cheerleader. She was a warm and loving woman who had a passion for helping anyone in need, including animals. Patricia was proud to have a busy home that was always filled with many pets, often ones that needed rescuing.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions, a Memorial Service will take place at a later date.
Memorial donations may be made to Edmonton Humane Society.

New Delhi: The Progressive Medicos and Scientists Forum have demanded the rollback of approvals for emergency use authorisation given to two vaccine candidates by the Drug Controller General of India (DCGI).
“Science can’t be compromised in the pursuit of private profit and political gains. PMSF demands revoking the approval of vaccine candidates and revisiting the vaccination and approval strategy based on the efficacy data and other considerations,” the forum said.
“The current incoherent messaging regarding vaccine efficacy, statements like 110 per cent certain of vaccine efficacy by DCGI, ‘LIKELY’ to be effective against UK strain of Covid-19 statement by the Health Minister, have taken the scientific community and general public by surprise. The Director of AIIMS is on record stating ‘Covaxin will be used as a backup for Covishield which doesn’t have proven efficacy’. As a group of doctors and researchers actively monitoring the situation, PMSF wishes to raise the concerns for wider consideration of the scientific community as well as the general public,” it added.
The DCGI had approved Covaxin by Bharat Biotech and Covishield by Serum Institute of India for emergency use authorization on Sunday. While Covishield was approved with certain riders, Covaxin was permitted for restricted emergency use in clinical trial mode by the drug controller. It was also reasoned that the Covaxin, which is ‘Inactivated Whole Virion, Corona Virus Vaccine,’ has the potential to target mutated coronavirus strains.
However, the scientist community and public health experts have strongly objected to the approval of Bharat Biotech’s vaccine as the firm is yet to present the efficacy data of its Phase 3 trials.
“DCGI’s approval document stating ‘clinical trial mode’ doesn’t provide any additional details. Will informed consent be taken from all those who take the vaccine and experience adverse effects be eligible for compensation?” PMSF President Dr Harjit Bhatti asked.
He also cautioned about the likelihood of violation of clinical trial protocols during the immunisation. “Serum Institute had threatened a participant in a clinical trial with a defamation suit demanding financial compensation. Instances where the trial was conducted without adequate information and consent are being brought to notice already. If adherence to protocol has been violated even while under trial, there is less likelihood of the same during large scale deployment,” Bhatti said.
Meanwhile, the forum also doubted upon the claim that the Covaxin is effective in targeting the mutant strains of SARS-CoV-2 since it is not backed by any data.
“It is not clear if there is any scientific basis to claim that Covaxin will be effective in controlling the infection by mutant strains when its efficacy has not been established and is currently unknown against any strain of the virus. The claim being propagated that the whole virion inactivated vaccine is likely to be effective against mutations of the virus is not being supported by any efficacy from the trial because no data have as yet been generated in the Phase 3 trial,” it stated.
“Experts have already warned that current vaccines may not protect against South African mutant strain. With such worldwide uncertainty of vaccines against mutants, what is the basis of these claims made?” Dr Vikas Bajpai, Professor at Centre of Social Medicine and Community Health in JNU and executive member of PMSF, asked.

16 Universities to Make Chevrolet Camaro More Efficient in the EcoCar3 Challenge
EcoCar3 is as competition held by the US Department of Energy and General Motors which has 16 well known universities from around the United States working to make the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro more eco friendly. This competition will span the next four years as these college students work to come up with innovative new technologies that will allow the Chevrolet Camaro to use less energy, reduce tailpipe emissions and reduce greenhouse gas levels – but the schools need to make the Camaro more eco friendly without hurting the performance too severely. Also, the schools have to keep the Camaro looking relatively unaltered so while they can do things to improve aerodynamics or reduce weight, they have to do so while preserving the styling exterior design of the Camaro.
“The EcoCar programs have been and will continue to be an instrumental part of developing the next generation of automotive engineers. We have gained significant talent and intellectual property as a result of these programs,” said GM Global Chief Engineer and EcoCar program manager James Kolhoff, “We’re also eager to see how the students will redesign and add more efficiency to an iconic ‘muscle car’ like the Chevrolet Camaro.”
In addition to having a team of engineers who will work to improve the Chevrolet Camaro in as many ways as possible, each school will have to include students who will focus on the communications process, marketing and basic project management. In other words, the EcoCar3 program will give each of these 16 universities a Chevrolet Camaro and those schools will have to go through many of the same steps that an automaker goes through to design and market a car – but instead of designing and marketing a brand new car, these college students will work to turn the Camaro green and market it as a greener performance car.
The announcement that the EcoCar3 program would be using a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro as the project vehicle included a Camaro RS V6 model – but it is unclear which trimline will be chosen for the program. That being said, there is a chance that it could be a Camaro SS with the V8 engine rather than the base V6, but it will definitely be a Camaro on which the students will be working over the next 4 years. The schools included in the program are Arizona State University, UCLA, Colorado State University, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Georgia Institute of Technology, McMaster University, Mississippi State University, Ohio State University, Pennsylvania State University, University of Tennessee at Knoxville, University of Alabama, University of Washington, University of Waterloo, Virginia Tech, Wayne State University and West Virginia University.
While this program could bring about cutting edge technologies that could quickly be integrated into production vehicles including (but not limited to) the Chevrolet Camaro, EcoCar3 also gives students at those 16 universities a chance to experience many of the same processes that take place in launching a new production vehicle. This will allow those students who want to go into the industry to gain valuable experience…while also maybe making an American performance car more eco friendly in a way that could be used on a production model in the future.

I listened to a good friend and a fine poet lecture on teaching writing a few weeks ago. I was impressed especially by how she goes about teaching. Her pedagogy is very similar to mine, and I chalk that up to the fact that we are both poets, who happen to teach. But it isn’t about where we are similar that I would like to speak. It is about where we differ.
The poet friend I mention above concludes, somewhere in the middle of her lecture, that one can’t teach insight. In other words, when teaching writing, one can’t teach a student writer to have an insight. Of course, this may be true. But one might lead one to an insight. One might point out this or that, and have the student suddenly see, what is indeed there to be seen. That is, only if it is there to be seen and the student be willing to see it. I come to this conclusion because of my own experiences with writing, and in particular writing poetry, which I believe provides the most opportunity for insight.
In my last post, which was written during a few especially dark weeks for me, I posit that my recent experiences with a poetic sequence has led me to the conclusion that self-knowledge, even for the most earnest seekers – and for good or ill, I count myself as one – is difficult at best and might be impossible. I would like to revise this understanding now. The problem for me wasn’t that the poems weren’t speaking. In fact, they were. And if they repeated themselves it was because I refused to listen. The insight, whatever insight there was to have, is there to be had. It shines now, for me, because I have eyes to see it. When I consider, too, how gentle that voice is, how patient, too, I feel somewhat ashamed.
I have been fond of saying that every moment is an opportunity for grace. An opportunity to wake up. And I believe this to be true. It oughtn’t be remarkable that a man suddenly realizes this or that about himself, or God, or the world. It is remarkable that he doesn’t. That he isn’t always running about with his hair aslant and his eyes wild. This is why, for me, the idea of teaching insight seems the most reasonable of pedagogies. What else is there for a good teacher to do, but say: Isn’t this something? A poem is both a record of an insight, and an opportunity for insight. A man might learn as much about himself by reading another poet’s work as he would be reading his own. And a teacher might reveal for his students what is there to be seen in their work and elsewhere, if he dares.
It is understandable to grow impatient with the process that leads to poetic insight. I suspect to be done truly and well one may have to wait the length of one’s life to get it all. I think it was Rilke who claimed that, perhaps, it comes at the end, some word returns, which you have been speaking from the time of your conception until now. I know what mine is. And I will say it here, though soon I will forget it again, and have to be reminded over and over. The word is the same word the wind announces, when it throws the trees about, and the word the trees repeat back to the wind. The birds in my yard have it on their tongues. I listen, and hear. It is: Yes.
I had been saying, No. And as long as that was my word, I might only catch glimmers and snatches of the truth. Perhaps, it is because I waited so long to see that everything today seems so bright. My heart is unburdened and, though still a little cracked, shot through with light. It may be truest of long poems to say that their greatest effect is the lengths a poet is willing to go to resist what is inevitable. And perhaps the longest, most fulfilling lives come to the same conclusion. I hope so. But even if I’m wrong, this is a chance I’m willing to take for one poetic insight. So what if it comes again and again and again.

The people of Norwalk in Warren County, Iowa enjoy some of the best of what Iowa has to offer by combining a short commute to Des Moines for work and play with a quiet home life in one of the most rapidly growing suburbs in the Metro area. They also have come to depend on Marks Law Firm to provide experienced advice in the complex area of bankruptcy. When they have questions the people of Norwalk choose Marks Law Firm to answer those questions and provide accurate information on the advantages of having a bankruptcy help you start over financially and stop the harassing calls from creditors.
One of the biggest benefits of filing a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy is that it provides relief from the stress of being in debt and the collection. The constant worrying about losing your residence, your automobile, and other valuable assets can be devastating and overwhelming.
The never-ending calls from creditors are undoubtedly the worst part of struggling to meet your financial obligations. It can feel like harassment regardless of how respectfully the creditor communicates. When you file bankruptcy, an automatic stay is issued. This requires ALL debt collectors to stop any collection efforts, including debt collection calls and letters.
However, you might erroneously still receive calls, letters, and even emails from some creditors after filing for bankruptcy; especially in the first 7-10 days after you file. Usually there’s an explanation: the bankruptcy court’s notice to your creditors simply hasn’t been processed yet. Once you inform these creditors of your filed bankruptcy, the collection should stop by law.
Although rare, there are unscrupulous debt collectors who persist in collections after a filing. This is not common. However, if this does happen and you have retained Marks Law Firm, we will help you handle this by talking directly to the creditor on your behalf and letting them know that the law puts an automatic stay in place. Although creditors are usually aware of this, sometimes a reminder from an attorney is needed to help them comply. This is one of numerous benefits to retaining an experienced attorney to help you through resetting your financial health via bankruptcy.
If you are wondering how to make the creditor calls stop and give yourself peace of mind with an automatic stay, call Marks Law Firm today to schedule a free initial consultation at (515) 276-7211.

COMMENT & ANALYSES: It’s great that the GAA are banning single-use plastic items such as straws and cutlery at their main stadium, Croke Park, but sustainability for the sports organisation can’t stop at plastic.
The GAA — as both a sports body and the host of large-scale music events around the country — needs to start acting responsible in terms of its traffic management plans for sport and music events across the country.
While other countries might not be perfect, many of them least they try. With measures such as keeping bus lanes open and ramping up bus services; offering free or discounted public transport as part of their event tickets; offering park and ride to people coming from far away where venues are in the middle of towns and cities; and keeping cycle routes open and offering free, convenient and guarded event bicycle parking.
But this is Ireland in 2018. We claim we support sustainability, while actively blocking it all for car use.
Currently the GAA, local authorities and the Gardai (besides a few Garda districts) are acting with two faces — saying they support sustainability and then, not just acting in a unsustainable way, but allowing travel to events at GAA venues to impact on people just trying to get around town and cities in a healthy, safe and sustainable way.
GAA matches are legendary for match goers abandoning their cars — including parking along cycle lanes and footpaths across the country. But the problems are also institutional ones that go beyond lack of enforcement.
One example we have covered in detail is the GAA, Dublin City Council and Gardai working together facilitating coaches parking in cycle paths in Dublin. The GAA alone could say stop.
And a new low is the traffic management plan in Galway last week including opening bus lanes, and curtailing bus services, (and, in the process, needlessly putting the bus lanes open to all traffic signs on cycle paths):
Galway city council blocked a cycle lane with a sign that tells that bus lane is opened to traffic. pic.twitter.com/CBdS2moMNM
— Paul Gaillimh (@PGaillimh) May 27, 2018
We wish to advise customers in Galway City that Route 401 will operate a curtailed route from 14:00 to 18:00 on Sunday 03 June 18, to facilitate traffic flow prior to and directly after the Connaught Football Semi Final. – https://t.co/VHLgjYwmdk
— Bus Eireann (@Buseireann) May 31, 2018
— Cosáin (@cosaingalway) May 27, 2018
And, let’s be clear about this: Not inconveniencing car use is why bus lanes were closed in Galway and why coaches park on cycle paths rather than the roadway in Dublin.
The things they do in other countries would be great in Ireland, an easy start would be to keep bus and cycle lanes open.

Kacie McDonnell and Eric Hosmer have been going strong for the past few months after the pair each posted photos together on their respective social media account this summer.
Here’s what Hosmer posted on his Instagram:
In fact, McDonnell has been front and center with Hosmer throughout the Kansas City Royals postseason run and was even photographed in the clubhouse with the first baseman after the team clinched its second straight ALCS title.
It hasn’t taken long for McDonnell and Hosmer to become the toast of the Kansas City sports world. Their still-young relationship has been reported on and analyzed since those very first Instagram posts. Of course, it makes sense since the couple is almost constantly in the public eye.
McDonnell works as the morning traffic reporter for local NBC affiliate KSHB every week day and also works as part of the Sporting Kansas City broadcast team.
But while McDonnell and Hosmer seem pretty serious, this isn’t the first time the reporter has been linked to a pro athlete.
McDonnell and the former Georgia quarterback first started dating while he was still in college in 2013 and were engaged for several months before officially calling things off i January, 2015.
The break-up came as a big-time to surprise to many of McDonnell’s over 87,000 Instagram followers. Just weeks before news broke that she and Murray had called things off, McDonnell had posted photos of them together and was spotted in Philadelphia with the quarterback scoping out wedding locations.
McDonnell told The Philadelphia Inquirer:
I’m loving my career in Kansas City. I’m really committed to being a part of this community for the time being. The engagement is off. I wish him the best, it’s best to part ways. I’m moving on with my life.
McDonnell moved from Philadelphia to Kansas City after Murray was drafted by the Chiefs in 2014. She had previously worked as a traffic reporter for FOX 29 in Philadelphia and was also a sideline reporter for locally broadcast Eagles games.
Before she was engaged to Aaron Murray, McDonnell was linked to former Minnesota Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder.
Of course, the relationship didn’t last long. Ponder is now married to ESPN reporter Samantha Steele – who now goes by Samantha Ponder on TV. The pair met on the set of College Game Day in 2012 and their relationship was big-time news at the time after the quarterback tweeted at her that October. He told media at the time:
This is big news, huh? Good Lord. There’s been a thousand articles today about it. You can’t really worry about it. You’ve got to try to keep it private, but that’s just part of the industry, part of the job. I don’t know. Comes with the territory. I’m proud of the relationship. I can brag. I’ve got bragging rights, I believe.
Christian and Saantha Ponder became parents in 2014 when they welcomed their daughter Bowden Sainte-Claire Ponder.
Although it didn’t receive the media attention of her other relationships, McDonnell was also romantically linked to Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Jonathan Pettibone in 2013.
The two were spotted together at Chase Utley’s All-Star Animals Casino Night in 2013 and McDonnell posted a photo of the two on her Twitter page.

text: BACKGROUND: The US Healthy People 2010 (HP2010) agenda set targets for major risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD). However, the potential impact of achieving those risk factor reductions on both population levels and social disparities in CHD has not been quantified. METHODS AND RESULTS: Data on 10-year risk of CHD (from the First National Health and Nutrition Examination Epidemiological Follow-Up study 1971 to 1982), prevalence of major CHD risk factors (from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003 to 2004), and HP2010 targets for CHD risk factors (reduction of smoking rate to 12%, hypertension to 14%, high cholesterol levels to 17%, diabetes to 2.5%, and obesity to 15%) were used to estimate effects of different scenarios on population levels and social disparities in CHD. Over a 10-year period, the largest relative reductions in population levels of CHD (20.0% in men; 23.9% in women) would be achieved if all social groups met the HP2010 targets. CHD disparities would be most reduced if the less educated (absolute disparities reduced by 66.1% in men; 56.3% in women) and the low income group (absolute disparities reduced by 93.7% in men; 94.3% in women) achieved the targets before the most advantaged. These reductions are larger than those expected if targets were achieved overall for the population but relative social group differences in risk factors remained, or under leveling-up approaches in which the least advantaged achieved the current levels of risk factors of the most advantaged. CONCLUSIONS: Interventions to reduce CHD risk factors to HP2010 targets that focus on all social groups would produce the best overall scenario for both population levels and disparities in CHD.

Sugar Creek Hollow starting today!
Sugar Creek Hollow challenge blog has changed up a bit - now with a strengthened focus on the creation of vintage, shabby chic and/or primitive card styles using a variety of stamp companies. Well this week, we're focusing on the wonderful images provided by Shelly's Images who is sponsoring our challenge this week. The winner of the Sugar Creek Hollow challenge this week will receive 3 free digi images of their choice from Shelly's Images. Now that's a wonderful prize and hopefully will entice you to join our weekly challenge!
Shelly's Images to play with for our inspiration cards this week. For my card, I've used "Pansies" - a beautiful digi stamp that won 2nd place in the first CDAC digi drawing challenge. I love this stamp and it was such fun to create a vintage card using it. I colored the image with Copics to achieve this look. My three designer papers are from K&Company's Julianne collection. They include the background floral, the green panel behind the image and the blue diecut behind the focal panel. The 2 diecuts include a doily die from MFTStamps "Die-namics" and the "decorative window scene" die, an exclusive from Heartfelt Creations. I thought the charm was perfect for this card because it says "Bloom where you are planted".
I encourage you to visit the Sugar Creek Hollow blog to see more of Shelly's Images used this week in some pretty incredible cards created by our design team.
Thanks for stopping by today!

Last week end everyone at my school got their report cards. I did well, better than I thought I would. It felt good to see all of my hard work pay off, and I was happy.
But this week, I felt so little motivation. All I wanted to do was lay on my bed and watch Bones, a tv show that I became recently obsessed with.
I just feel tired. The same thing happened last year, and my grades went down, not a lot, but enough.
I need something to kick start my motivation again.

“I was very upset because we ride through that intersection all the time. I am a cyclist advocate and other riders were reaching out to me asking if we would set up a tribute ride. So I reached out to the family.”
Cycling advocates would like to see more measures like speed enforcement and protected bicycle signals be put in place.

Lenny Bruce’s personal papers, which include his personal photographs, manuscripts, news clippings and audiovisual recordings, are the exciting new archive collection coming to Brandeis this fall. Previously, his daughter Kitty Bruce had the collection.
The late comedian was born in Mineola, New York, as Leonard Schneider in 1925. He joined the United States Navy at the age of 16 and actively participated in the Second World War. After the war, he attempted to enter showbiz as a comedy writer, writing the screenplays for “Dance Hall Racket,” “Dream Follies” and “The Rocket Man.” By doing so, he finally achieved mainstream success and was praised for his work. Bruce eventually made a national televised appearance on “The Steve Allen Show.”
Bruce’s sense of humor can be best described as black comedy and political satire; he was known for his political rants, which were usually laced with obscenities. His method of commenting on the American political system was sometimes not well received by the then sensitive American audience, which led to multiple arrests for obscenity. He was first arrested at the San Francisco’s Jazz Club and a few times in England and Australia, as well as in other parts of the United States.
His performances during these troubled times usually included commenting on his legal troubles over the obscenity charges as well as complaining that he was being denied his freedom of speech. One of his most famous performances was at the Berkeley Community Centre in December 1965, which was recorded and produced as an album known as “The Berkeley Concert.”
Toward the end of his career, Lenny Bruce wrote an autobiography at the request of Hugh Hefner, which was published in Playboy. It was later published as a book called “How to Talk Dirty and Influence People.” In August 1966, Bruce passed away from a morphine overdose. His remains were interred in Eden Memorial Park Cemetery in Mission Hills, California. Despite his unfortunate death, his legacy lived on.
Lenny Bruce had a lasting effect on pop culture. His life inspired a Tony Award-winning Broadway play called “Lenny,” which in turn inspired the brilliant Academy Award-nominated 1974 film of the same name, starring Dustin Hoffman as Bruce. In 1998, a documentary about his life called “Lenny Bruce: Swear to Tell the Truth,” narrated by Robert de Niro, was made. The documentary was also nominated for an Academy Award. Furthermore, musician Bob Dylan wrote a song called “Lenny Bruce” in which he fondly recounts the story of the time the two men shared a taxi together.
In 2003, New York Governor George Pataki gave Lenny Bruce a posthumous pardon for his 1964 obscenity charge. This was the first posthumous pardon in the history of New York State. Pataki called the decision “a declaration of New York’s commitment to upholding the First Amendment”.
Brandeis University is thrilled to have an archive collection of such a fascinating and influential man. The acquisition of this collection was possible due to the generous gift by the Hugh Hefner Foundation, which is a non-profit organization founded to defend civil liberties. The collection bought by Brandeis includes materials that span approximately 10 feet, which will require a lot of processing and reviewing, after which it will become a part of the Robert D. Farber Archives and Special Collections.
These archives touch upon topics like freedom of speech, censorship, social justice and Jewish humor. It will be an interesting topic of study for researchers who are curious about Lenny Bruce’s captivating legacy.

It's fairly safe to say, a life without dumplings would be a pretty sad one. Dumplings are a common feature of many cuisines, taking on a few forms—from steamed, pillowy, and soup-filled to fried and crispy, around the world, there's manti, pierogi, ravioli, momo, gyoza—the list goes on.
Thankfully, there are a few standout Sydney joints slinging delicious dumplings in all their many formats. Here we've rounded up a list of the best, with a special focus on Chinese dim sum and soupy xiao long bao.
To get your fix, dive into this list of the absolute best spots to score tasty dumplings in Sydney.
The Best Dumplings Across Sydney
Since opening in 2010, Chefs Gallery has been a major Sydney favourite—for its fresh pan-Chinese cuisine, theatrical open kitchen, creative "Chapas" (Chinese-style tapas) and signature handmade noodles, hot pot, and dim sim. When it comes to delicious dumplings, keep your eyes peeled for pan-fried prawn potstickers with seaweed and squid flakes and steamed prawn and chicken shumai. Chefs Gallery has locations in Macquarie Park, the Sydney CBD, and Parramatta.
Din Tai Fung
You might say the arrival of Taiwanese franchise Din Tai Fung in Sydney propelled xiao long bao into the vocabulary of the entire city. That was in 2008—which is basically aeons ago in terms of restaurant openings—and people still love going to Din Tai Fung for their fresh, delicate and extra-authentic soupy dumplings. The xiaolongbao is, quite simply, some of the best in Sydney. Keep an eye out for dumpling specials too—like truffle dumplings during truffle season, and rainbow-hued dumplings for Mardi Gras.
Lilong By Taste Of Shanghai
The word "lilong" describes the old street communities in Shanghai that were connected by laneways which means, unsurprisingly, most Lilong outposts across Sydney resemble terrace-like houses, traditional Chinese courtyards, and back-street haunts tucked behind big city buildings. Started by Jennifer Du, the food is a large nod to Du’s heritage and focuses on Shanghai and Northern Chinese cuisines. Lilong's dumpling legacy has been going strong since 2006. Sink your teeth into everything from sticky rice dumplings and chicken and sweet corn dumplings to crispy Shangai turnip croissants and crispy fried Chinese milk buns.
CBD, Double Bay and Barangaroo
There are multiple venues under the Lotus name in Sydney, including a dumpling bar and a dumpling house set within the tranquil Chinese Garden of Friendship—but one thing remains true of the Lotus Group. Their dumplings are divine. The concept came into fruition back in 2012 when Michael Jiang put into play his dream of owning a restaurant that would bring his childhood memories of food to life. Right now, you can channel the best of the dumpling menu which looks like Sichuan style prawn and pork wonton. You’ll also find chicken and kimchi wonton, pan-fried pork and zucchini dumplings and the famous duck egg york dessert dumpling.
From the signature Shanghainese xiao long bao to prawn dumplings with peanut sauce, let’s just say your taste buds are in for a vivid flavour safari at New Shanghai. It should come as no surprise that New Shanghai has outposts all over the country and the world with its Chinese dishes stemming from recipes that have been passed down through generations. There’s a hefty menu dedicated entirely to dim sims and dumplings. The aforementioned Shanghainese xiao long bao is a signature, as is the crab meat xiao long bao, and the potstickers.
Chinese Dumpling Master And Chinese Noodle House
Newtown and Haymarket
Chinese Dumpling Master on Enmore Road is the offspring of the storied Chinese Noodle House in Haymarket—and both siblings serve piles (and piles) of some of Sydney's most delicious dumplings. Many of us have been visiting the Haymarket joint for years; it's affectionately known by regulars and fans as "that place with the plastic grapevines on the roof". Don't expect airs and graces here, this is one of those rare restaurants that enjoys a reputation based on word of mouth, which has to be the most telling testimony in our digital age.
Typically crowded, loud and cheerful, dumplings here have a signature flavour and a denser texture, making them a bit different from the delicate varieties you might find elsewhere. While this is a divisive feature, if you want a cheap, hearty, tasty meal (that’s BYO to boot), this is your place. Pro tip: when feasting at Chinese Dumpling Master in Newtown, pop across the road for an epic selection of natural wines from the legends at P&V Wine and Liquor.
Manly And Enmore
Inspired by neighbourhood restaurants in Hong Kong, Queen Chow is Merivale's take on Cantonese cuisine. Expect all the polish you've come to know and love from the Merivale family—plus seaside views (in Manly) and a slick pub refurb (in Enmore). When it comes to dumplings, you'll want to try the jade seafood dumpling, which is actually a stunning jade green hue, and the wild mushroom dumplings. Try them all and more with a dim sum platter.
The Best Dumplings In Sydney’s North
Manly And Dee Why
People travel far and wide to sink their teeth into the poke bowl and dumpling affair at Momo Bar. The stickler at Momo is that the dumplings are pretty much the size of your palm and come out in all kinds of variations (vegan, traditional, Nepalese, and gluten-free). There’s a landslide of dumpling fillings to try too, including lamb, chicken, lentil, mushroom, pork and veggie dumplings, most of which are served with a flavoursome broth you’ll want to knock back like water. The unmissable bowl here is the chicken dumplings, which are hand-rolled Nepalese momo. You’ll want to load her up with paprika butter, garlic yoghurt and the elixir of life that is sriracha chilli sauce.
Mama Mulan is a modern Chinese food restaurant with a menu that serves up staple dishes with a fun twist. Most of the time, the people line-up at all hours of the day to hit the unparalleled yum cha on offer here, with plates of steamed, pan-fried and deep-fried dim sum dishes all mixed with fresh ingredients and a spice repertoire that can be sourced back to different places all over the world. At any given point, the mixed dumpling platter is the way to go, loaded with Mulan prawn har gau, dry scallop, pork and prawn shumai, and mushroom and veggie dumplings.
The Best Dumplings In South Sydney
Imperial Peking Restaurant
Imperial Peking Restaurant is an institution, to say the least. The venue has been standing strong in the Imperial Building on King Georges Road for 20 years now and as you might guess, the Peking duck is a big must. The menu is loosely focussed on Cantonese-style dishes but you’ll also find a line-up of classic Pekinese dim sim, like fried pork dumplings and steamed prawn dumplings. Pop in for yum cha to experience over 40 varieties of delicious dim sum.
Largely hailed as one of Sydney’s prodigies of yum cha, unsurprisingly Golden Sands and its dim sim situation will have you licking your lips. Located in Hurstville, which is occasionally referred to as Sydney's "Little Hong Kong", arrive early to ensure you score a table. When you're ready to order, the seafood-packed har gow are silky, crystal morsels worthy of your time. Plumper than your typical dumpling, the scallop and spinach dumplings are also a smash hit. Once you’ve consumed your body weight in dumplings, it’ll be time for you to hit Golden Sands' karaoke room.
The Best Dumplings In Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs
Golden Unicorn Chinese Restaurant
You could say The Golden Unicorn Chinese Restaurant is to the south-east what Totti’s is to Bondi, maybe minus the Merivale sheen. Having opened its doors 10 years ago, this BYO venue has a bible-length menu where you can cop everything from mooncakes and chicken stuffed with abalone to casual yum cha and full-blown banquet menus. The steamed har gow, fried prawn and spinach and Chinese prawn dumplings are standouts on the menu.
Dumpling And Noodle House
It’s hard to find cheap eats in the highly gentrified Potts Point area. However, Dumpling and Noodle House delivers (and we mean that literally too, it’s on Deliveroo). The dumplings come steamed, pan-fried or boiled and in serves of eight or 12. While the pork and chive is a favourite, Dumpling and Noodle House also has surprising beef, lamb, and chicken and corn options that you won’t see in many other places.
The Best Dumplings In Sydney’s West
The dumpling deal at Vinh Phat is legendary. It's famous for yum cha as much as it is famous for long queues to get a table. The dim sim, texturally, are creations above most dumpling joints in Sydney and the fried dumplings go down a treat after a big night out of knocking back cold ones.
The Best Dumplings In Sydney’s CBD
Golden Century is one of Sydney's most loved, longstanding restaurants. Thanks to the pandemic, its future is looking pretty shaky, but for now, its younger offshoot XOPP is carrying on the legacy. XOPP (a playful acronym of the dish that made Golden Century famous), churns out contemporary takes on Cantonese classics of comfort food. There’s no messing with the staples here which means the silver prawn dumplings bearing a slight crunch are a no-brainer.
Mr. Wong, led by the legendary Dan Hong, has a dim sum menu for lunch as well as yum cha on the weekends. Like everything on the dinner menu at Mr. Wong, the dim sum delivers a perfect mix of innovation and tradition. Mr. Wong’s dim sum is picture-perfect too, with the dumpling wrappers naturally coloured and artistically wrapped to showcase each type. And the xiao long bao? Definitely a contender for the very best in the city. Any adventure to Mr. Wong feels like a special occasion thanks to the awe-inducing opulence of the space, but don't be fooled. It certainly isn’t pretentious—the dim sum is reasonably priced considering you’re eating at a two-hatted restaurant.
Mr. Chen Beef Noodle
Here, chef Gary Yuen heads up the kitchen, armed with a casual 40 years experience in traditional Chinese cooking and yes, he is a veritable dumpling king. Dumplings are made to order so brace yourself for generously stuffed pork morsels either boiled, pan-fried or steamed and fluffy BBQ pork buns to start your feast. Big bonus? BYO is free.
The Best Dumplings In Sydney’s Inner West
Burwood and Enmore
Yang’s Dumplings comes to you straight from Shanghai, where the chain has been serving up tasty handmade treats for more than 20 years. The fame it has garnered in Shanghai is not lost in Sydney, where Yang’s now has venues in Burwood and Enmore. The must-try dish is the Sheng Jian Bao, a soupy mince-pork dumpling with a crispy bottom (just proceed with caution—it’s hot!). If it means anything to you, and we'll assume it does, the venue is known to attract those from or familiar with Shanghai and its cuisine, so you can take that as a guarantee of authenticity and yum.
Sydney Dumpling King
Shakespeare asked “what is in a name?” and to that we say, when it comes to Sydney Dumpling King, pretty much everything. This lo-fi dumpling joint has a business model entirely fixed on making Sydney’s best dumplings without all the fuss and it’s something the crew have exceeded expectations on. Here, the juicy steamed pork dumplings reign supreme and all dumplings are handmade daily.
Still hungry? Check out Sydney's best Chinese restaurants.
