Well, how lucky do I feel? Today I had my 3rd opportunity to be interviewed by the AMAZING Sir Terry Wogan at the BBC Radio 2 studios, and this time I brought some insanely talented musicians along to play along side me, too! Thanks so much to Sam Rommer, Sam Whiting and James Rees-Flynn for performing so beautifully today and being such inspiring people.
Thank you so much to everyone who listened, and to anyone who may be new to the “Emma Stevens family” today – WELCOME!! Please sign up to the mailing list so I can give you a free acoustic version of Make My Day – my brand new single!
Here are a few pics from today!
I’m so so blown away by this incredible support from BBC Radio 2!! My new single “Riptide” has been play listed! It’ll be available from my forthcoming Album “Enchanted”, which is scheduled for physical and digital release on the 14th October. It’ll also be featured on my 4th EP “Sunflower” which will be released around that time too!!
Please don’t forget to tweet or email Radio 2 if you hear my song!! Your amazing sparkling support on my last 2 singles really influenced their decision to continue to support me and run with this one so THANK YOU!! So much love to you all <3
A lot of you have been in touch asking about what makes BBC Introducing so great and why it helped me so much. I thought I’d do a little blog and let you know about my journey with them.
First of all I uploaded one of my songs to the BBC Introducing website. Shortly after that I was contacted by Phil Jackson at BBC Introducing South, who told me that my song was going to be presented to the demo panel, where three industry experts would give me feedback about the song I had submitted. I received three thumbs up (YAY!) and was consequently invited into the BBC South Studio to perform a live session on air.
It received such great feedback from listeners that it came to the attention of BBC Radio 2. Sir Terry Wogan discovered the music and gave my first single a play on his show. This then resulted in my single being playlisted on BBC Radio 2. For this to happen to an unsigned artist is unprecedented. When I then got the invitation to go and play live for Sir Terry with my good friend Jenn Bostic, I had to pinch myself!
Then my second single was playlisted and I was invited to perform live on Claire Balding’s show and on Chris Evan’s breakfast show..! It just totally blows me away and I still cannot believe it! (Below is a picture of me during the interview with Chris Evans and David Walliams!)
The next thing I knew I was headlining the BBC Introducing Stage at Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park.
BBC Introducing is an amazing initiative to allow new music and new talent to have a platform. It gives DIY artists the same opportunities as artists who are signed to major labels. It is SO refreshing that the BBC are championing new british talent and new songs and I’m so grateful, honoured and delighted that they felt that I fell in to that category.
The past few weeks have been insane! I have been finishing my album, getting EP4 ready and playing incredible festivals, including Carfest and BBC Radio 2 live in Hyde Park! I am having the best time ever!!
I arrived at Hyde Park with my band at 9am. It was lovely to have such a warm welcome from everyone. A few cup’s of tea and chocolate brioche’s later Sam and myself were taken over to the guest area, where the Radio 2 live broadcasting was taking place. It was a giant tipi! But not only that, it had a huge disco ball in, it was pretty much sparkle-tastic! I met up with Terry Wogan and his amazing team and did an interview followed by “A Place Called You” live..
The support from the “Weekend Wogan” has been amazing. “A Place Called You” had its first national airplay on 2nd September 2012 – my Dad’s birthday! I will never forget that day – Terry Wogan and his team hold a special place in my heart for their belief so early on.
Sam and I tuning up:
About to start the interview!
The rest of the day was spent watching other acts on the Main Stage and BBC Introducing Stage, My highlights were Jack Johnson, (I love him!!) Cattle and Cane, Texas and Treacherous Orchestra!
For lunch I had an amazing veggie burger… Made by Jamie Oliver!! The food was sooo delicious! For once nerves and excitement didn’t seem to put a stop on my appetite pre-gig!!
I couldn’t get over the level of support from everyone backstage at the Introducing site. We had cool deck chairs to sit and relax on, along with sofas and tea and a lovely fridge full of delights, too! I had an incredible time performing on the BBC Introducing Stage.. WOW.. What a welcome. To hear the crowd singing back my songs was a huge moment for me. My band played SO well (HUGE thanks Sam Whiting, Chris Powell and Tim Kitchen) and I just thoroughly enjoyed every single moment of it. You can probably tell. In almost every single photo I have a BIG smile on my face!!
It was altogether a magical day and I am totally blown away by the incredible team work and support. Thanks so much to BBC Introducing South (especially Phil Jackson) – without them this could not have happened. To BBC Introducing, for existing, What an incredible supportive platform for unsigned artists to showcase their material. I am eternally grateful. Massive thank you to Radio 2 for the continuous support and for putting on such an AMAZING festival in a day!

Legal briefs have become very popular in the last few years, thanks to the emergence of electronic filing systems, which make things easier for lawyers. You may be wondering how legal briefs are prepared.
A legal brief template is simply a word document, with your own legal terms added. A template word document is designed to be very simple, as it has no room for errors or spelling mistakes.
A good legal brief will address each aspect of your case, providing every detail that your opponent needs to know. Each page should include:
The wording you will use to present your issue, i.e. whether the client or an employee requires sick pay, holiday pay, an annuity or settlement pay, a structured settlement or a lump sum payment. You should also list any additional damages which you expect your client to claim, and what those damages are.
If your client has been injured or suffering from ill health, a brief should show how this relates to their work. It will describe the work environment and the working conditions in relation to your client's injury or illness. It will also include any medical cover provided by the company concerned. It should state the maximum earnings you expect your client to be entitled to.
Do you have any further problems with regard to your client's work? What are the workplace policies which your client is bound by? If there are any new procedures being introduced, explain them to your client and provide information on how this can affect their work. If there are new qualifications, any relevant studies and details of how these relate to your client's position, these should also be included.
Any specialist medical services provided, such as pre_accident psychological or drugs and alcohol testing, should be clearly described in your brief. In the event of a claim for workers compensation, an explanation of your expectations is required. You should state the total amount you expect to receive, and what your client will do with the payments.
The purpose of a brief is to present the most accurate picture of your case. Your brief should answer each question and point out every issue with the facts of your case. A legal brief is an important document.
One of the biggest challenges in preparing a legal brief is creating a template word document that can be easily integrated into your online law firm. With many tools available to help you prepare and manage legal briefs, this task can become considerably easier.
Legal brief template word documents can be created through the use of many software programs, or the service of a professional legal brief writer. A legal brief template word document can be used to quickly prepare your brief, or used to prepare multiple documents to be distributed to clients, and used as evidence in court.
A legal brief template word document can be a unique and creative way to present your case and make it more compelling. You will not only save time in preparation, but will also find that the templates have a professional feel, as they were prepared to use a legal format.
Make a point of writing your legal brief using a template word document, and you will save time and money. Your legal brief will be clear, concise and ready to use in court at short notice.

I started running in 2012 to get fit and fill the gap of not playing gaelic football! Started off with a few 4kms at the sunset series and progressed from that to half Marathons and then to running a good few marathons.
I'm currently working as a chef in a law firm in the city.
My goal for 2024 is to stay injury free .. get fit and give a pb at Melbourne Marathon a real go!
I started running March 2023 when a friend convinced me to sign up for the Run Melbourne 10km, to raise money for Pets of the Homeless. I remember thinking “There’s no way I can do this!”, but I was going to give it a good crack and started on the C2 5K app.
In April, I joined LRC and started to really see improvement. In May, I ran my first 5km and cracked a sub 30mins in the same month. In June, I ran my first 10km, in July I hit my 50 parkrun milestone, and completed Run Melbourne in under 60mins! Running became my happy place - I’ve since ran several 10k events, am training for my first half marathon in December and just became Co-ED at my local parkrun.
My goals for 2024 … just keep on at it! I’d like to tick off a few half marathons and see improvements with each one, run a sub 25 parkrun and celebrate my 100th parkrun milestone!
My running journey started in 2016 when I discovered parkrun on Saturday mornings, from there I found out about run clubs and by extension - run events.
I work in large format printing and sitting in the office all day prompts me to get out and run!
LRC has inspired and motivated me to become an endurance runner completing several half marathons and marathons over the last few years.
If you need any LRC branded merch get in contact with me on the social pages - we have a great selection of apparel to choose from.
My goals for 2023 are to run a marathon interstate and possibly overseas (fingers crossed!)
I'm Milissa, aka Milly, Mil and Nanna. In my role as Member Engagement Officer, my primary focus is to collaborate with the committee and our wonderful members to uphold and nurture LRC's inclusive and non-judgmental culture. The aim is to continue fostering a vibrant and welcoming running community while expanding our membership base.
My journey in running began in late 2017 as a transformative escape from routine. Over the years, I've accomplished several half marathons, on both roads and trails, and most recently I've conquered the grueling Oxfam 100km trail walk, which remains one of the most physically demanding yet profoundly rewarding experiences of my life.
Looking ahead, my running goals for 2024 are quite simple, I aim to fully immerse myself in the present moment, relishing every step and every connection made within our running community. With an open heart and an adventurous spirit, who knows what exciting new challenges and opportunities lie on the horizon!
I began running with one goal in mind “to run 5km at parkrun before I turned 50” and the rest, as they say, is history. 5km became 8, then 10, then 15, then 21.1…
I’ve been a member of LRC since 2017, and an active run leader with the club for the past few years and have enjoyed meeting club members at different stages of their running journey.
In 2024, I’ll be running a little more often but shorter distances. Just to keep the injuries at bay! My main focus will be to improve my parkrun time and occasionally train for 10km events. 14km at GOR will be my biggest distance for the year.
I am known for my determination and clumsiness! A wise runner once told me to remember “consistency is key” and I live by this.
Im known here at LRC as Chief (and I love it!) because I always seem to be organising an event, people, or making sure I have what you may need.
I started walking at parkrun in 2018 initially to stop spending money at the shops each weekend (true story), and then realising I missed community sport. I landed in the lap of LRC not long after.
Away from running, I work with heavy vehicle regulation, and as you can imagine, it can be very tiring. Shuffling with LRC crew is my time to decompress.
My 2024 plans are still coming together. However, the must do events for me are Great Ocean Road and Shepparton and crew for Surf Coast Century.
If I'm not racing at an event, I'm often found volunteering or cheering (which I absolutely love!!!).
WAI LING LIONG
I started running in my early 30s due to health reasons and haven't looked back since. Started with 5kms, progressed to 10kms and have ran 8 half marathons. Running brings me to my happy place and always looking forward to track sessions and social runs where I get to spend time with my peers.
In the day, I'm a Digital Business Analyst with a not-for-profit health care organisation. And at night, I'm either running somewhere or in the gym doing my strength training.
My goal for 2024 is to improve my half marathon time, aiming to do it within 2 hours 15mins. Since the plan is to do 3 half marathons and hopefully, one of them will get me my PB. The other goal would probably be to aim for a sub 30 mins parkrun PB as I have finally gotten it down to 33 mins (long time in the making).
I am certainly not what you’d class as a runner but here I am in a running club. What the?
I joined Lalor Running Club in 2017 after hearing about it through parkrun. I have entered into a few 5-6km events over the years and most recently participated in my first 10km event on 29th Oct 2023 at Run For The Firies.
The thing I enjoy most about this club is not actually the running aspect at all. The people within it make the club and are supportive no matter your ability. We also hold some pretty awesome social events outside of running too.
My only goal for 2024 is just to keep moving / keep active!

It took me three days to paint one tiny room, but it was worth it.
It took me three days to paint one tiny room, but it was worth it.
It took me three days to paint one tiny room, but it was worth it.
Doc hurried to Claire’s side. “Somebody go get that hot-headed husband of hers. Trey, you carry her to the couch. It isn’t unusual for a woman with child to pass out. I, for one, am mighty grateful someone was here to catch her.”
SueAnna breathed a sigh then mentally scolded herself. Hadn’t she and Peter discussed this very thing only minutes ago. Wasn’t she the one who said she was going to choose to forget? She looked around the table and all eyes were on her, except Lily’s. The little girl held her dolly in front of her face, but it didn’t hide the quiver of her tiny shoulders.
“Why, Miss Libby. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you. Who do you have hiding behind you? That can’t be LilyAnna Rose Morrow, can it?” She moved the doll and met the tear-filled eyes of her baby sister.
“I wasn’t supposed to say ‘surprise’ ’til you saw me and now it’s not a surprise. I made Peter mad, didn’t I?”
“Oh, sweetie. You didn’t make Peter mad. Your big brother was already angry and it has nothing at all to do with you.” She drew the little girl to her. “You know what? You just gave me the best present ever.”
Trey knelt by SueAnna’s chair, his eyes pleading for understanding. She leaned toward him and put her arms around his neck. “I”m glad you were here to help her,” she whispered. “Don’t worry about Peter. He’s going to have to fight his own ghosts. Did you know Lily was coming? “
He stood and kissed her on the forehead then turned and swooped Lily off her feet and twirled her around in circles. “We surprised her, didn’t we punkin’?” He kissed her on the nose then set her on her feet.
SueAnna shook her finger at James. “You knew about this, didn’t you?”
He leaned back his head and laughed. “Never had so much fun in all my life. Mercy it feels good to laugh for a change.” He wiped his eyes with his fingers. “You gave us a scare, you know.”
Trey scooted a chair next to her and perched her little sister on his knee. “Lily, you and I need to have a serious talk. Think we can do that?”
Lily took SueAnna’s hand. “Am I in trouble? I said mean things about him. I’m sorry.”
Trey put his hands on each side of her face. “No, Lily, You’re not in trouble. I need to ask you to forgive me for the way I treated your big sister. I love her very, very much and want us to be a family. Would you be my little sister, too?”
Lily held her doll to her ear for a bit, then smiled. “We forgive you, but Miss Libby says not to let it happen ever again. That’s all we got to say.”
One week before Christmas, 1873
Ben stood in her kitchen while Alice Rawlings read the telegram from Mr. Taylor that instructed him to take Lily to the Nelson’s for Christmas.
‘The man has lost his mind, Ben. I can’t let you take this itty bitty gal all the way to Prairie View ridin’ horseback. This is Kansas, for cryin’ in the mop water. Don’t he know how fast the weather can change?” She slapped the telegram down on the table.
He shrugged. “He knows, Alice. Probably knows better than any of us, but I’m followin’ orders. You know how homesick for her sister Lily has been. I reckon SueAnna is feelin’ the same. Maybe it would help her get well faster if they was together.”
Alice wiped the hem of her apron across her face. “I know. Poor little thing has cried herself to sleep the last two nights. It first it weren’t so bad, but I wonder if she thinks she’s been left for good? I’ll get her and you can tell her what’s gonna happen while I pack her things.”
“Pack light, Alice. I don’t want to take the chance of getting caught in a winter storm with two horses to worry about. I’ll put Lily on with me and stuff the saddlebags full. Might make sure she’s wearin’ extra clothes to begin with.”
Lily squealed with delight when she saw Ben. She was stuffed into so many layers she looked like a little duckling as she waddled toward him with her arms outstretched. He laughed at her obvious excitement as she threw her arms around his neck. “Are we really going to see Annie? I prayed to Jesus last night ’cause I wanted to see her for Christmas.”
Ben hugged her then held her at arms length. “Well, see there. Jesus done answered your prayer.”
A frown flitted between her big eyes. “What if she doesn’t remember me? Is Mr. Martin there? But what if Santa Claus can’t find me? Do you think they have snow in town? I like the snow, don’t you? We played in it, all except for April. She’s too little and Arnold couldn’t go outside either ’cause he has a drippy nose. We ate it too, except Abigail said we shouldn’t eat it because old Arf had been rolling in it. Arf is the dog. Isn’t it funny? Even the dog has an A name.”
Alice chortled. “I can’t tell you how much we’re gonna miss this little gal.” She bent down to give Lily a squeeze. “Look Missy Prissy. I done wrapped Miss Libby so she won’t get cold.” She handed a pink flannel bundle to the little girl. “You mind Mister Ben, now. And tell your sister we all miss her. Okay?” She stood and wiped her eyes.
Ben waited while Lily kissed all the kids goodbye. We gotta go, Sugar Miss.” He turned to the older woman and pulled her to him. ” What a fine woman you are, Alice Rawlings. You got so much room in her heart. SueAnna will never forget the kindness you done for her.” He kissed her cheek, and she pulled him closer to whisper in his ear.
“Tell SueAnna if this next one is a girl I’m gonna call her Anna Sue. Don’t have a boy’s name yet. Abe takes care of that.”
Ben settled Lily in front of him and threw Alice a kiss as he rode away. That Abe—he sure enough took care of that.
Two days later
Ben snuggled Lily deeper into her cocoon of blankets. “You warm enough, Sugar Miss?”
“I’m nice and warm,” she answered, her voice muffled by the scarf around her nose and mouth.
Only another half day and they would be there. the moon was lurking in the western sky, but the winter sun was peeping over the hills turning the morning sky pink and coral. So far the weather had held. It was bitter cold, but there was no moisture and even the Kansas wind had been kind to them.
“Can you see, Lily?” She sat with her back against his chest, Miss Libby clutched securely in the saddle in front of her. She nodded her head in reply.
“Let’s see which one can spot the first…oh, let’s say the first bird.”
“Is this another game? I like your games but I don’t want to play right now.”
“And why would that be? You’re not gettin’ sick, are you?” Please Lord, don’t let her get sick out here on the prairie.
“I’m not sick, but my tummy is all fluttery like it has wings in it. And my eyes feel like crying.”
Ben stopped the horse and lifted the blanket-pudgy girl so he could see her face. “Now, you want to tell me why your eyes feel like crying?” He pushed back her bonnet so he could see the bright blue orbs that talked even when she didn’t. “Don’t you know if you cry, you’ll have icicles on your face.?” He lifted her chin and rubbed his nose against hers.
“But I don’t want to cry. Annie says my mama used to say there were sad tears and happy tears. Do boys have all them tears inside of them, too?”
Ben swallowed an unexpected lump. “They sure do, Lily.” He hugged her close. “I reckon God made us all with extra water inside and sometimes it just has to bubble out. And you know what?”
“What? Is this another game?”
“A very nice lady told me one time that when you cry, God catches all them tears and puts them in a bottle for us because he loves us so much.”
Lily laid her head against Ben’s chest and her shoulders trembled with sobs. Then as quickly as the tears came, they stopped. She sat up, wiped her eyes with her mittened hands, and gave him a heartwarming smile. “There’s I’m all done. I didn’t know if God had a big bottle ready so I just let out a few. I’ll save the rest for another time. I have a game to play. Do you want to play it with me?”
He laughed. “You beat all, LilyAnna Rose Morrow. You sure do. Yes, I’ll play the game with you but you have to tell me the rules.”
She cocked her head to one side. “Well, you know how the Rawlings all have names that start with A? I think that’s because Abigail’s papa’s name starts with A. Well, since I’m going to marry you when I get all growed up, I want to play a game and name all my babies with B. B makes a ‘buh’ sound, doesn’t it I’ll start first—the first boy will be Buh…Benjamin. Now it’s your turn. You name the girls and I’ll name the boys. Won’t this be a fun game?”
He didn’t answer. Couldn’t until the lump in his throat went down. He looked at the little red-nosed fairy in front of him. How much fun it would have been to have a little sister like this. He didn’t even know if he had siblings. How did one go about finding out those things?
Lily pinched his nose. “You aren’t playing, and you said you would.”
“Okay. Bethany rose. How’s that?”
“You like roses just the same as my papa. That makes me very happy.”
Lily had fallen asleep by the time they topped the ridge to start down into the small valley that nestled the town of Prairie View. Ben’s stomach growled and he chuckled in anticipation—Lorna always had food ready.
He stopped at the hitching post in front of Nelson’s and shook Lily’s shoulders. “We’re here, punkin. Are you ready to surprise your sister?” He dismounted and lifted her down. When he reached for her hand, she pulled away.
“No, I’m not ready. Just look at me. I must freshen up a bit—that’s what SueAnna would say. You haven’t even combed my hair once this whole time.” She stood with her hands on her hips, a miniature image of her big sister. Were all females like this? She was only six-years-old. They sure started young wanting things their way.
“Well, I don’t know nothin’ about comin’ a girl’s hair. But we can’t do nothin’ standin’ out here in the cold like this. Let’s get you in where it’s warm enough to unwind you from all your bundles.”
He managed to get her inside, but not without her constant reminder that she wasn’t going anywhere until her hair was combed.
“Could I help? I probably know more about a woman’s hair than you do.” Ben’s eyes made contact with a very pretty lady. This must be Peter’s wife.
“I really want to help this little girl surprise her sister. We’ve all been waiting.”
Lily’s face was a picture of confusion. “Who are you? Where’s my sister?”
“Lily, this is your Aunt Claire, your brother Peter’s wife.” He smiled. “Where’s Peter? I’m sure he must be anxious to see this little gal.” He put Lily’s blankets and coats on a chair.
“He’s keeping SueAnna company so she won’t suspect anything. She’s been begging Doc to let her get up and move around. Peter’s trying to keep her in her room until someone signals him to bring her in here.”
“Is Trey here?” He wasn’t sure he should even mention his friend’s name.
“He’s back in the living quarters with everyone else, waiting for you. I don’t know how Mr. Covington knew you’d be in today, but he’s had everyone corralled in there for the last hour. It’s a good thing you came. Lorna is about to burst with excitement.”
“You sure you’re okay with Lily?” He hated leaving the little i mp. He never knew what might spill out of her mouth.
Clair smiled and put her arm around the little girl. “We’ll be fine. You go on and we’ll come shortly. Lorna picked out a new dress for Lily. I’ll bring her back just as soon as I get her all ready.”
One week later
“I missed Thanksgiving Day, didn’t I?” SueAnna sat propped against her pillows while Trey brushed her hair.
He kissed the tip of her nose. “Not mine. The moment you opened your eyes and smiled was my Thanksgiving.”
“Trey, did you call me Annie? I kept hearing someone say, ‘Annie, my Annie’.”
He stopped brushing. “If I confessed, would you be upset?”
She shook her head. “Did you know I could think while I was sleeping? I could hear people talking and I had thoughts, but it was like I was in a deep, dark hole, and I couldn’t get to the top to let anyone know where I was. I tried and tried to scream but no one heard me.” Tears filled her eyes.
He thumbed away her tears. “Shh. Don’t tell me if it’s going to make you cry.”
“But I want to tell you this.” She took his hand and brought it to her lips. “Once, before Lily was born, I came in the house when my mama and papa didn’t know I was there. I can still see them standing in the kitchen, their arms around each other. And her called her ‘my Annie’, and then he kissed her. I never did let them know I saw them kissing. But by the way he said her name, I knew he loved her very much.
“And I love you very much, Mrs. Martin. Will you ever be able to believe me without being afraid?”
“When I heard someone call me Annie, I knew it was you. Usually my nickname was Rosie, but Annie was Papa’s love name for my mama. The night she died he called to her over and over again, just like you were doing. He kept saying, ‘Don’t leave me Annie. I need you Annie. Please, my Annie, come back to me.’ I heard you say those words and I tried so hard to climb out of the darkness. ” She sniffed and smiled at him.
Trey closed his arms around his wife and stroked her hair. “I didn’t want to live if you didn’t. I begged God to either make you well again, or let me die with you. I will spend the rest of my days trying to make up to you for all the pain and hurt you suffered because of my stupidity.”
“That would be dumb. What a waste of days those would be when we could be enjoying one another, and the changing prairie, and all that’s ahead of us. ” She nipped at his nose.
He held her at arm’s length. “But we do need to talk. Peter and Claire are still here.”
“I know. I thought about that, too, but only since I’ve been awake. I think I would like to talk to Peter. Could you send him in? And would you mind terribly leaving us alone while we talk?”
He scowled. “What about Claire? Can you—?
She put her fingers across his lips. “Let me talk with Peter first. Then we’ll decide what to do next. First, finish brushing my hair then go get my brother. I haven’t talked with him in over two years. Under different circumstances I would be wild with anticipation.”
“Do you have any idea, my Annie, how wild I am with anticipation?” His voice was husky.
She closed her eyes as he caressed her face. His touch was gentle, yet possessive. Warmth enveloped her as his lips found the hollow between her neck and shoulders.
He chuckled softly when she shoved him away. “I know, I know—go get your brother, right?”
“Court me, Trey. I want to get all dressed up and wait in the parlor for you to come calling. I want to giggle when I se you ride up, and swoon when you walk through the door. I want to see your eyes light up when you see me. I want to race you across the prairie, with my hair blowing and you hollering for me to wait. I want to do things in the right order. I’ve been a Ma since I was a girl, an a bride before I was loved.”

Police recruit facing termination following OWI arrest
An Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department recruit is facing termination after he was arrested Thursday on a preliminary drunk driving charge, police said.
Indiana State Police took 24-year-old Wesley Ryder into custody Thursday after he was driving in the wrong direction on I-465, said ISP Capt. Dave Bursten.
Bursten said the man, later identified as an IMPD recruit, had crashed into another vehicle.
State troopers who responded to the scene said they believed Ryder to be impaired and attempted to administer a breath alcohol test. Ryder refused and was arrested, said Bursten.
Troopers transported Ryder to Eskenazi Hospital and obtained a search warrant for a blood draw, the test results of which are still pending, said Bursten. A passenger in the vehicle Ryder struck sustained minor injuries.
In a statement, IMPD officials said Ryder is a recruit trainee in the 10th recruit class.
"He has failed to meet the minimum standards as required," the statement read. "(Ryder) thus will be subject to termination."

Since the first season of Ginny and Georgia, the series is telling its story across 2 timelines, one in the present day and another taking place several years in the past through the series of flashbacks. Young Georgia is played by Nikki Roumel.
These scenes have massively explored the events which made Georgia the no-nonsense woman, she is today, delving into her relationships with her family and her earlier love interests.
After its first season gave viewers an insight into Ginny’s father Zion and Georgia’s first husband, Anthony Green who she accidentally killed years before murdering her ex-husband Kenny. The second season shifted the point on her relationship with Austin’s father, Gil Timmins who started as a nice, mild-mannered young person before a more sinister and then controlling side came out.
Who is actress Nikki Roumel, her age, height, parents, TV shows and movies, net worth, Instagram
Young Georgia has been played by a Canadian actress, named Nikki Roumel. Nikki hails from Toronto, Canada and she was born on 8 May 2000. Presently Nikki’s age is 22 years old as of 2022 with her height at 5 feet 4 inches. The release of Ginny & Georgia’s second season will take place in January 2023.
Nikki Roumel is a half-Greek and her real name is Nikola Roumeliotis, but she changed this when she started her acting career. Apart from being just 22 years old, Nikki earned her first acting credit a decade ago when Nikki appeared in a short film named Anaphylaction, in 2013.
Nikki Roumel’s parents are Dino Roumel and Tamara Smit Roumeliotis and her nationality is Canadian by birth. Her father is a businessman, and her mother is a housewife. Nikki’s net worth is at $500,000.

Impacts of Realistic Urban Heating, Part I: Spatial Variability of Mean Flow, Turbulent Exchange and Pollutant Dispersion
As urbanization progresses, more realistic methods are required to analyze the urban microclimate. However, given the complexity and computational cost of numerical models, the effects of realistic representations should be evaluated to identify the level of detail required for an accurate analysis. We consider the realistic representation of surface heating in an idealized three-dimensional urban configuration, and evaluate the spatial variability of flow statistics (mean flow and turbulent fluxes) in urban streets. Large-eddy simulations coupled with an urban energy balance model are employed, and the heating distribution of urban surfaces is parametrized using sets of horizontal and vertical Richardson numbers, characterizing thermal stratification and heating orientation with respect to the wind direction. For all studied conditions, the thermal field is strongly affected by the orientation of heating with respect to the airflow. The modification of airflow by the horizontal heating is also pronounced for strongly unstable conditions. The formation of the canyon vortices is affected by the three-dimensional heating distribution in both spanwise and streamwise street canyons, such that the secondary vortex is seen adjacent to the windward wall. For the dispersion field, however, the overall heating of urban surfaces, and more importantly, the vertical temperature gradient, dominate the distribution of concentration and the removal of pollutants from the building canyon. Accordingly, the spatial variability of concentration is not significantly affected by the detailed heating distribution. The analysis is extended to assess the effects of three-dimensional surface heating on turbulent transfer. Quadrant analysis reveals that the differential heating also affects the dominance of ejection and sweep events and the efficiency of turbulent transfer (exuberance) within the street canyon and at the roof level, while the vertical variation of these parameters is less dependent on the detailed heating of urban facets.

Vaccine roll-out begins, but could developing countries miss out?
As the UK kicks off its massive ‘V-Day’ vaccine operation, WHO said most countries can expect vaccine rollout in early 2021 - although access groups worry there won’t be enough for low- and middle-income countries.
London. The cameras were focused on the face of 90 year-old Margaret Keenan, the first UK citizen to receive the newly approved Pfizer / BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine on Tuesday at University Hospital in the city of Coventry. After her jab, she passed through a corridor of applauding nurses. Behind her mask was the glint of a smile as she described the experience as an “early birthday present”. She turns 91 next week.
But underneath the hopeful photo-ops, staged in one of the areas hardest hit by the coronavirus, a technically complex “V-Day” operation - a name hearkening back to Britain's World War II D-Day landing at Normandy - was getting underway across the first 50 hospital hubs. It was to be followed by vaccine distribution next week at 300 primary health care centres of the UK's National Health Service (NHS).
“Today marks the start of the fight back against our common enemy, the coronavirus,” said Prime Minister Boris Johnson, on a visit to a London hospital where others were lining up to receive their first vaccine doses. He summoned national pride, declaring that getting vaccinated was “good for you and good for the whole country”.
Famed for its octopus-like bureaucracy, the NHS vaccine rollout could still be a model for other countries if the vaccine drive, which requires two doses, goes off smoothly. Some 800,000 Pfizer vaccines are to be delivered this month, to be followed by four million more, beginning in January 2021.
A vaccine can't come too soon. With today's likely approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the same Pfizer mRNA vaccine, followed by an expected FDA approval of a similar vaccine produced by Moderna next week, the vaccine flood gates are expected to open even wider, with more military-style vaccine operations getting underway elsewhere in North America and Europe this month and in early January.
For most countries, weary of economic lockdowns, social strains, and pressured hospitals, not to mention the human tragedies of serious illness, death and “long Covid” aftereffects, the introduction of vaccines cannot come too soon.
Over 1.5 million people have died since the pandemic began nearly a year ago, including more than 61,000 people in the UK alone, the fifth hardest hit in terms of mortality, coming after the United States, Brazil, India and Mexico – and just ahead of Italy, France, Iran, Spain and Russia. Many of those same countries are now in the thralls of a second or third wave of virus infections and deaths.
Could poor countries miss out? At a press briefing on Friday, WHO officials held out hope that low- and middle-income countries could also begin vaccinating their highest-risk groups, particularly health workers and older people “in the first quarter of 2021,” with the support of the WHO co-sponsored Covax vaccine facility. Most of the world’s countries, rich and poor, have joined the initiative – which also aims to raise donor funds to purchase and distribute vaccines to some 92 countries that cannot afford to buy them on their own.
However, despite repeated pleas to donors for support, Covax and other arms of the broader ACT Accelerator initiative remain some $28 bn short on the funding needed in 2021 year to fully fund the vaccine drive, as well as parallel initiatives to provide Covid drugs, tests and health system support services to low- and middle-income countries. .
As things stand now, the world’s 67 poorest countries will only be able to vaccinate one in ten people against Covid-19 next year - unless urgent action is taken by governments and the pharmaceutical industry to make sure enough doses are produced and distributed, warned a report published Wednesday by Oxfam along with Amnesty International and other advocacy groups.
The report notes that the massive pre-purchases of the leading vaccine candidates by rich countries means that some countries have bought up enough doses to vaccinate their entire populations nearly three times over by the end of 2021 - if the vaccines now in advanced clinical trials are all approved for use.
Meanwhile, 67 low and lower middle-income countries risk being left behind. Five of those countries – Kenya, Myanmar, Nigeria, Pakistan and Ukraine - have reported nearly 1.5 million Covid cases between them.
Rich nations representing just 14 per cent of the world’s population have bought up 53 per cent of all the most promising vaccines so far. Canada tops the chart with enough vaccines to vaccinate each Canadian five times, according to the report that analysed data on vaccine purchase deals already concluded between countries and companies developing the eight leading vaccine candidates. .
The Republic of Korea has vaccines to cover 88 per cent of its population of more than 50 million people. But nearby, low-income Philippines, has so far secured only 2.6 million doses for next year covering only 1.3 million people out of its total population of more than 100 million.
On the other hand, a few low- and middle-income nations like India, Mexico and Brazil have managed to secure large vaccine procurement commitments, primarily through manufacturing deals with AstraZeneca, which is offering a low-cost vaccine, that uses a more conventional technology to prompt immunity. And that vaccine, being produced on a non-profit basis, would cost only about $3, per dose, as compared to $20-$30 for the more high-tech Pfizer and Moderna alternatives,
WHO aims to get 20 per cent coverage worldwide next year. Speaking at Friday’s WHO press briefing, Dr Soumya Swaminathan, WHO’s chief scientist, stated that the WHO co-sponsored Covax vaccine pool has so far secured deals for only 700 million vaccine doses.
“That’s not sufficient,” said Swaminathan. “The goal is to get at least two billion doses by the end of 2021, which would be enough to vaccinate approximately 20 per cent of the populations of the countries that are part of Covax.”
Covax, a global pool to procure and distribute Covid-19 vacines equitably and affordably includes 187 member states; among those, some 92 countries will also require donor support for their vaccine purchases.
The Covax programme “urgently needs another $5bn in order to meet that goal of two billion doses”, stressed Swaminathan. She stressed that there is “no point in having products that do not reach the majority of the world’s population”.
WHO has also argued that rich countries stand to gain by providing the missing funds. A recent study supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, found that the world’s ten largest donor countries could reap over $466bn in economic benefits by 2025 if they would fully fund the ACT Accelerator’s 2021 needs for Covid vaccines, tests and treatments. The funding would bring the pandemic under control faster, kickstarting the global economy more effectively, the report concludes.
World Trade Organization (WTO) debates IP “waiver” for Covid medicines and vaccines. Meanwhile, a parallel initiative by India and South Africa in the World Trade Organization (WTO) is attempting to address the access gap from another angle - proposing a broad WTO “waiver” on patents, copyrights, and trade secrets for Covid-related health products. The waiver proposal has picked up considerable support among African, Asian and Latin American member states. But it is stiffly opposed by a wall of G-20 countries which see this as a threat to domestic pharma interests.
WTO members are due to meet again today (10 December) to debate the waiver proposal – ahead of a full hearing by the WTO’s General Council on 17 December. A number of high- and middle-income countries, including Canada and Australia, have tried to mediate in the highly polarised debate, while leaders of the initiative have also threatened to put it to a vote.
Medicines access groups are stepping up their campaign on behalf of the waiver concept.
On Wednesday, a petition organised by the online campaign organisation AVAAZ and signed by some 900,000 people, was delivered to WTO members. The petition called on all governments, WTO members and pharmaceutical companies to “ensure access to lifesaving Covid-19 vaccines, treatments and equipment for everyone in the world”.
“While the world waits with bated breath for the possible approval of these Covid-19 vaccines, it’s not time to celebrate yet,” said Dr Sidney Wong, executive co-director of Médecins Sans Frontières Access Campaign in a press release on Tuesday.
“Right now, we’re in a situation where a lion’s share of the limited number of first doses have already been snatched up by a handful of countries like the US and UK, as well as the EU, leaving very little for other countries in the short term. What we really want to see is a rapid expansion of the overall global supply, so there are more vaccines to go around and doses can be allocated according to WHO’s public health criteria, not a country’s ability to pay.”

Hello out there!!
Hope everyone is well, it's Friday and all is well in the land of Georgie.
Today I'm sharing a cover of my denim art journal over at Mixed Media Place.
I must admit I do not feel too pleased about the final look of this piece but I did enjoy the process of creating and that is what this is all about right? We don't always get it spot on every time and rather than leaving it in the dark I thought I'd still share it.
Anyway, I'll leave you with some close ups :) :

City staff have dug into the leak at the southern Blakely Park pool and found a big project to do.
The entire circulation system needs replacing, according to Jeff Hood, Parks and Recreation director. It was originally installed in 1957 and runs all the pumping and filtering for the pool.
“It lasted this long so that’s good news. The bad news is that it lasted only this long and now we have to replace it,” said Hood.
To get into that system, the deck on three sides of the pool must be torn up and removed. Workers are digging trenches around the pool to install new pipes. Those trenches will be backfilled and new concrete decks poured over them.
Hood anticipates the work will be completed by the end of next week. The total cost will likely come in under $20,000, the amount approved by the city council for the emergency repairs.

We were lured in by the shrimp on a skewer, looked so good. Walked in and down to the beach, found an empty table and sat down. Friendly staff wiped the table for us, gave us menus and asked what we wanted to drink since it was so hot out. We just wanted one beer but got lost in the translation and ordered one beer special which was 4 -28 oz. beers for $4.00. Got the shrimp on the skewer, good flavor but it will turn everything around you red from the sauce. My wife ordered the coconut shrimp, excellent, I ordered the fish tacos and some chips and salsa. Excellent fresh fish taste, not greasy, a small cup of Spanish rice comes with it and crunchy chips and a variety of tasty salsas.
Lots of beach vendors selling goods, just say "no gracias" if your not interested and they smile and walk away. Loved it and will be back next time in Puerto Vallarta.

What does the next generation think of today’s issues? The Big Smoke’s Next Gen program publishes Australian students mentored by TBS writers. Today, 9-year-old Alisha Vedi calls on our government to invest more in science and research.
Student: Alisha Vedi, aged 9
Mentor: Valerie Buhajiar
Topic: Importance of science and scientific research, and need for Australian Government to invest in both.
Have you ever heard of the very successful bionic ear? Did you know that it was invented in Australia and is the first bionic body part? How about the extremely well known Wi-Fi? We use it every day! Imagine life without it. You might be using it right now! Well, Wi-Fi was invented here in Australia and has made Australia very prosperous. In October last year, Aussie scientists from UNSW came up with first working quantum bit, paving the way for the first commercial manufacture of a quantum computer which is unmeasurably faster than standard computing.
These products and discoveries have changed millions of people’s lives all over the world and created gateways for so many new inventions. They have also helped, and increased, our economy. However, just imagine what we would have if there wasn’t enough money to fund the research which was needed to take these genius ideas from the lab to the world. Researchers and scientists in Australia have many ideas to help our society learn and grow. However, many are not able to make these ideas reality. Why?
Well, you see, only 17.7% or less than 4 out of 5 applicants for the Australian Research Council (ARC) Discovery Projects receive funding. What happens to the other 82.3% or more than 4 out of 5 applicants? They are left in the dark with all their researchers who connected to them. Only very few go on to receive funding from other places. It is such a shame that all those ideas get wasted.

- TBS Next Gen: Is Google tracking us?
- TBS Next Gen: The 63 square centimetres that are defining women’s self esteem
Science is way too important for us to forget about. That is why the government should definitely put aside more money for science and research funding.
I think that the biggest problem in the science industry is getting scientists’ ideas, work, research and perhaps products or discoveries, from the lab to markets, hospitals, industries and our homes, where they can be used and upgraded for commercial use.
Amongst the other OECD countries (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development), the latest OECD figures show that Australia does not compare well against other nations in the organisation on federal government funding research and development. The Australian Government only spends 0.4% of the GDP as a percentage. This is lower than other nations like us. However, viewing the country’s total funding on science, research and development, including spending by the state governments and the private sector, the problem is not as bad: here Australia is placed in the middle among all the OECD countries.
These discoveries have changed millions of lives all over the world, created gateways for many new inventions, also helped and increased our economy. However, many are not able to make these ideas reality.
But there is always room for improvement. I believe that Australia is a great country and is able to excel in the field of science and research. If the government spends more money in funding science and research, Australia can climb our way to the top of the OECD countries. This will enable Australia to keep inventing and researching to find new solutions for our problems.
Who knows? In a few years’ time (if the government continues funding scientists and research), maybe Australian scientists could have found the cure for cancer or discovered how to use nuclear energy safely. Maybe Australian scientists will have found a way to reverse the effects of climate change or maybe they could have invented a new piece of technology to help us do all these things. With science anything is possible!

Queen Spider Staff
|Damage||26 / 19 (Summon)|
|Knockback||7.5 (Very strong)|
|Use time||30 (Average)|
|Tooltip||Summons a sentry|
Summons a spider queen to spit eggs at your enemies
- Spider Turret
- Spider Egg
- Baby Spider
The Queen Spider Staff is a Hardmode sentry summon weapon that summons a Queen Spider sentry that lasts for two minutes. It fires short-range spider eggs at enemies each second, which can roll and are heavily affected by gravity. Upon colliding with enemies or objects, the eggs hatch three baby spiders each that attack enemies suicide-style, inflicting summon damage along with the Acid Venom debuff.
Its best modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stat bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, minions cannot deal critical hits. The only lasting advantage a Mythical Queen Spider Staff has over a Ruthless one is knockback.
Crafting[edit | edit source]
Recipes[edit | edit source]
Notes[edit | edit source]
- The Queen Spider Staff works much like the Staff of the Frost Hydra, but its projectiles are affected by gravity, have less damage, and neither the turret nor its projectiles provide light.
- The baby spiders which spawn from the egg projectiles do not climb walls, unlike the Spider minions.
- The Queen Spider Staff can be used simultaneously with other sentry minions without impacting the player's normal minion total.
Tips[edit | edit source]
- The staff can be helpful for clearing out caves and rooms without directly entering them, by summoning it through the wall.
- Because the Spider Fang item is a common drop (50% / 90% chance) from Black Recluse spiders, the Queen Spider Staff is relatively easy to obtain and a useful aid in surviving early Hardmode.
- The staff can be sold for 5 whereas the materials needed only sell for 120 combined, which makes selling the staff as opposed to the fangs a good way to make money.
- It is possible to have up to 5 Spider Queens summoned at once when wearing any of the sets bought from the Tavernkeep and any of the Ogre accessories.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- It is one of only four weapons in the game that can inflict Venom without any buffs or bonuses, the others being the Spider Staff, Pygmy Staff, and the Venom Staff.

The Brazilian National Organizing Committee of Rio+20 (NOC Rio+20) has released a Sustainability Report for the June 2012 conference, detailing its Environmental, Social, and Economic organizational strategies, as well as event attendence and other statistics.
29 November 2012: The Government of Brazil has released a Sustainability Report for the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (UNCSD, or Rio+20), which took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in June 2012. The report highlights the National Organizing Committee’s (NOC Rio+20) attempts to structure the conference considering the three pillars of sustainable development (environmental, social, and economic), and emphasize accessibility, sustainability and partnerships.
Reporting that the Conference had attendance from 80 Heads of State, 191 UN Member States Official Delegations, and 45,763 accredited participants at the Riocentro conference center, and over 600,000 accesses at other event spaces, NOC Rio+20 details the efforts it made to balance the environmental effects of the conference. The “Environmental Pillar” sustainability strategy combined a mix of greenhouse gas (GHG) offset compensations, sustainable procurement plans, water and energy management policies, and environmental education communications. NOC Rio+20 used internet technology and social media to communicate its efforts to the public, and engaged them in policy discussions through virtual Sustainable Development Dialogues.
The Committee also focused on the social inclusion of Rio de Janeiro’s local communities, Brazilian culture, and disabled persons in the conference. A partnership with the UN Development Programme Brazil (UNDP Brazil) employed over 1,191 Brazilian volunteers from low-income families to assist in conference facilitation.

WASHINGTON (Nov. 15)
Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Dayan told newsmen at a press briefing late yesterday afternoon that he felt no pressures in his meetings with top-ranking U.S. officials here and “nowhere was any practical proposal submitted by them or me” regarding the Middle East. Dayan met for 90 minutes yesterday morning with Secretary of State William P. Rogers.
He disclosed to newsmen that he breakfasted at the Shoreham Hotel with Presidential advisor Henry Kissinger but did not disclose what was discussed. Dayan, accompanied by Israel Ambassador Yitzhak Rabin, had what a Pentagon spokesman described as a “working courtesy lunch” at the Pentagon with Admiral Thomas H.Moorer, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and with Deputy Secretary for Defense Kenneth Rush. During the day, Dayan also met with Richard Helms, CIA chief.
SITUATION IMPROVED SINCE LAST YEAR
“I didn’t bring any demands or proposals and they didn’t try to do business with me,” Dayan said at the press briefing. “I didn’t feel any urgency of pressure to draw the conclusion that something must be done now,” he said. At another point in his press conference, Dayan said he felt no pressure to reach an agreement with any one Arab state or all the Arab states. He said, however, that the administration officials “do want something better than a cease-fire” but “nothing actually practical was discussed at any meeting.”
Replying to questions, Dayan said he thought the situation had improved since he was in Washington a year ago. “Things are much better now because of the Russian position,” he said, apparently referring to the pull-out of Soviet personnel from Egypt. He noted that the cease-fire has been in effect for more than two years, there was prosperity in the occupied territories, a more normal civilian life in the Gaza Strip and that Lebanon was restricting terrorists more than before.
