Scots aged between 40 and 50 will be able to get a booster dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, the Scottish Government has said.
The announcement comes after a similar move in England, following advice from the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation.
The change would also allow for a second dose to be given to those who are aged 16 or 17 years old.
Booster jabs were offered to the over-50s and the most clinically vulnerable - or those who live with people who are - but the move will expand the programme further.
Chief medical officer Dr Gregor Smith said: "The JCVI has advised that people aged 40-49 will now be eligible for a Covid-19 booster.
"These will be offered once the earlier agreed priority groups have had their booster injections to ensure the most vulnerable groups are offered protection first.
"The 40 to 49-year-old group will soon be able to book their own appointments through the NHS online portal - which is now live for 50 to 59-year-olds.

"Young people aged 16 and 17 years old are now eligible for a second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine following the most recent JCVI advice.
"The vaccine will be offered from 12 weeks after their first vaccination. In cases where an individual in this group has had a positive PCR test for Covid-19, the JCVI recommends the second dose should be given at least 12 weeks following infection."
Health Secretary Humza Yousaf told the PA news agency on Monday: "We're looking quickly to examine and explore how quickly we're able to operationalise that.
"I'm meeting with the vaccine team later on this afternoon and we'll be talking about how we operationalise that advice and also the advice on 16 to 17-year-olds the JCVI have provided."
He added: "We'll try to operationalise it as quickly as possible.
"Remember there's a huge, significant number of those 40 to 49-year-olds who won't be eligible for the booster yet, because they have to wait six months until their second dose.
"I think the vast majority of them become eligible early into next year."
On Monday, over-50s were invited to book their third dose through an online portal - a month later than previously announced.
It is not yet clear how long the booster programme will take, with the initial group due to be completed in early January.
For the younger age group, Dr Smith said he was "delighted" that 76% had received a first dose, but said a timetable is yet to be put in place for the second.
Tory MSP Dr Sandesh Gulhane urged the Scottish Government to reopen mass vaccination centres to provide boosters.
"Covid booster jags are our best weapon to stop the spread of the virus," he said.
"As the booster programme expands to include younger people, it's vital that the government does everything in its power to make sure as many jags as possible are delivered before Christmas.
"The booster jag rollout could be going much faster if we had mass clinics operating again to complement the current local delivery method."
Dr Gulhane added: "To halt the spread of covid, the government's first step should be reopening mass vaccination centres, instead of considering introducing more stringent restrictions that would damage jobs, businesses and people's mental health."

City will buy park parcel on Mazanita after all
The Williams deal goes through, as the city sells land to cover half the cost.
A week before Halloween, a proposal to buy Manzanita Bay parkland came back from the dead.
The $1.7 million purchase of the Williams property was approved four votes to three at the City Council meeting Wednesday, after the council agreed to an amendment requiring the city to sell at least $850,000 in surplus property to help pay for it.
The council killed off the original proposal to buy the property in August, but the deal was reworked to give the city more flexibility.
The city will use councilmanic bonds to purchase 4.04 acres of land and 5.2 acres of tidelands from the Williams family for $300,000 less than the $2 million assessed value. Kelly Samson, a private developer, will simultaneously purchase the remaining 11 acres of the Williams property from the family.
The parcels mix of sloped lawns, mature forest and low-bank waterfront on the southeast side of the bay will be a public treasure, said Councilwoman Debbie Vancil, who worked with city staff and the Williams family to revive the proposal.
I know this is something we will be proud to have and share in years ahead, she said.
The surplus land sale amendment was not enough to satisfy Bill Knobloch, Chris Snow and Kjell Stoknes, who opposed the purchase. They felt the financial burdens already riding on the city combined with the strings attached to the property make it a bum deal.
Conditions built into the sale will allow the upland owners to share a boat shed on the property on a 99-year lease. It will also require the city to keep historic views of the bay intact, limit parking to 12 spaces and not issue permits for gatherings of more than 30 people.
Stoknes saw those covenants as a recipe for future conflict.
I think were buying problems, he said.
Knobloch and Snow said there are too many other priorities, including park land in Winslow, that needed funding, and Knobloch called the Williams deal part of a community financial feeding frenzy.
Two members of the public spoke against the purchase, including park board member Kirk Robinson who said he personally worried the purchase would set a precedent for private interests imposing restrictions on public land.
But council members in favor of the deal felt the new proposal gave the city more assurances. Most importantly the deal allows the city to wait five years before designating the parcel as parkland, meaning it can resell it if its funding plans fall through.
The new proposal was offered with a plan to use grants and surplus land sales to defray the cost of the property.
Unlike landlocked lots, the waterfront on the Williams property makes it eligible for a variety of ecological grants including ones to aid salmon habitat restoration.
Because of availability of these special grants, the Open Space Commission believes the purchase will not limit its ability to pay for land in Winslow and elsewhere.
Combined with the sale of unused city land, the grants could be enough to eventually make the deal a zero net loss. Bob Scales said the sale of surplus land will at least guarantee the city will recoup half of the Williams price.
We control our land, we can sell that land, and I intend that we make that decision now, Scales said.
The council gave city staff a Dec. 12 deadline to recommend surplus parcels to be sold. But thats not likely to happen, said city administrator Mary Jo Briggs.
She said her staff will have to wade through an overwhelming amount of public comment before the decision can be made. Properties on Manitou Beach, Old County Road, and a lot south of Sakai Intermediate School have been mentioned as candidates for the block.
These people (who live around city land to be sold) will be getting different neighbors than they intended with park space, Briggs said, adding that this was the kind of council request that drives us crazy.
The councils acceptance of the Williams property proposal was an important victory for the Open Space Commission. It will be the first purchase made since the commission exhausted its original $8 million in bond funds, and big questions were raised about how future open space would be acquired.
This was a little different from previous proposals, commission chair Andy Maron said. It required the city to consider its priorities and find alternative ways of financing.
The financing of the deal was controversial, but the lands value as a city asset was not debated.
The parcel will provide the only public access to Manzanita Bay and the only waterfront park on Bainbridges western shoreline. It could also be linked by trails to Battle Point Park and Grand Forest.
The Williams property includes three lots, with a single-story home on one site.
In the original deal Samson was to donate a victorian farmhouse on his portion of the Williams property to the city, but that condition was removed to reduce complications. It will now be up to Samson to decide the fate of the building, which once housed the Manzanita School and a library.
The Williams family first approached the Open Space Commission in April about selling the piece to the city. The property too large and expensive for the city to tackle on its own so it contacted several private developers about splitting the deal.
Samson agreed to pursue the property with the city and in August the Open Space Commission brought its first proposal before the council.
Since it began talks with developers the city has drawn criticism for including a private interest in a public open space deal, and Samson was called opportunistic by some.
Samson said he was happy with the councils final decision and relieved that the process is over.
Its been a long summer, he said. But a year from now all of this will be forgotten and well have a park there.

People always have a need for something new and for variety. Trends are the result. But how do they emerge? Your demanding customers in particular want to see the latest trends on the wall. That is why we are tracking them down year after year...
Looking back leads to the future! Trends are always based on what already exists. Ongoing observation and evaluation of colour cycles are part of our job - well-founded knowledge is the basis. Which trends existed in the 1950s, 60s, 70s - which ones in the last two years? What colours are newly nuanced and combined? How long does a trend last? We'll find out!
When tracking down trends, we turn into international street workers! Our search leads us through streets, into cafés, past shop windows. What do we notice? Where will we find it again? Maybe in blogs, in magazines? What repeats itself is in any case considered a "trend" suspect...
Suddenly it's there: the trend. Sometimes it emerges where nobody suspects it! One person does something, another person sees something - and... thinks it's cool. And then it appears in the form of colours or motifs. In fashion, furnishing or accessories. At first occasionally, then often and increasingly often. Like our cactus.
Our gut feeling needs certainty: We should find the colours that we think are trend-setting again at the relevant trade fairs. Then colour impressions become concrete: We register possible trend colours.
The formation of groups begins: All scouted colours are sorted according to colour themes. Which nuances and combinations best reflect the observed trend? We'll know after careful analysis.
Now it is time to check the possible trend colours in detail. How do these colours appear in the interior, on the wall, under certain lighting conditions? Those who don't pass the test are out! Or are modified: brightened, greyed, differently nuanced... How exactly is this done? Further insights are available here.
Creativity comes into play - the wall design is created. We define colours and surfaces. From all the nuances of the scouted colour themes, individual ones are selected and declared a "trend". The most exciting moment: the implementation in a real building. We look, doubt, test, are finally quite sure and record everything in motion pictures. Attention, camera!

One of the most dangerous handgun safety mistakes is not keeping the gun pointed in a safe direction. Shooters should not point the muzzle of a gun at anything they do not want to destroy. Well, last week I got a very serious reminder of this critical safety rule. My wife and I were teaching a handguns skills class and I was working closely with a student at the range who had never shot a pistol before our class. As always, I was being very cautious, thorough, and deliberate in my range instructions, observations, demonstrations, and safety and shooting procedures, since I value safety as the most important part of our entire 8-hour class. The student was having a difficult time hitting anyplace on the blank paper-plate target at 7 yards because of her flinches and jerks. We had completed the bench rest shooting and two-handed standing shooting and I watched her first take the magazine out and then check the chamber both visually and tactilely. I was proud of her safety-check procedure and then it happened. She began to slowly place the pistol on the bench with the action open and the muzzle pointed downrange as she was instructed to do…. but then as she turned her head to the side she very suddenly turned the muzzle 90 degrees to that same side and pointed the gun directly at my wife’s face who was instructing another student at the next bench. In my over 40 years of teaching, no student ever pointed a gun at me or my wife. I was up close and “in the student’s face” as the barrel started to turn, I quickly grabbed the muzzle and pointed it in a safe direction and no one got hurt. I knew the gun was unloaded, but others did not. Still, this is a major concern and the student did not qualify at this session for safety and other reasons. I will work with her to help her every way I can. She now has a refresher on the procedure and very clearly knows what she should have done. But, I can still see the shocked and scared look on my wife’s face and of the other students in that very quick second. There is no excuse whatsoever for a safety violation, especially after several hours of recent safety rules presentations with examples and muzzle control being emphasized and with hands-on training. “Oops I’m sorry I killed you” doesn’t matter at all. It won’t fix it. Words alone are not sufficient to solve the problem. The muzzle discipline must be demonstrated there without excuses, in this life and death matter. I knew she did not mean to do it and regretted it, but someone could have been killed for eternity. Focus and concentration are key, if you have a deadly gun in your hand. So, it is very important to know and practice how to handle the gun safely at all times. And this includes times when you are not shooting the gun. We need to know and exhibit muzzle discipline. Part of that is knowing and practicing different Ready Positions for everyone’s safety.
Ready positions are methods of holding the gun for safe muzzle awareness and to protect people before, during, or after a real or potential threat attack or while shooting at the range or even in a shooting class. After you draw your gun, when moving with your gun, when engaging threats, or being ready to possibly and quickly shoot at a target or threat, it is very important to know what to safely do with the gun’s muzzle. This includes when you are through shooting, like with the student. Where do you point the gun’s muzzle if there are several people around you? What is a safe position to point the gun when there is not a readily-identifiable target, but soon may be? We all know the answer is down range and in a safe direction, but do we ALWAYS practice it. It is very important to know where to point that muzzle and how to safely handle your gun and practice to develop brain habits and muscle memory to automatically do it. There are very many Ready shooting positions and various names are used for them. There are the Relaxed Low Ready, the Retracted Low Ready, the Traditional Low Ready, the High Compressed Ready, and the Temple Index-Muzzle Up for examples, among others. Keep in mind that there is a difference between range-only shooting Ready positions for fixed targets and real-world, life-or-death Ready positions for street attackers. While there are many Ready positions, each with their own pros and cons, I want to present just five of the general Ready Shooting Positions.
- SUL Position
- Low Ready
- Modified Low Ready
- High Ready
- Modified High Ready
SUL was developed by Max Joseph and Alan Brosnan in Brazil in 1997 while working with the South American Police. Its purpose is to serve as a safe pistol carry position for Close Quarters Battle (CQB) and to protect others in the presence of fellow friendly shooters. Going to SUL keeps your muzzle off back-up personnel and other friendly operators. It is used to check 360 degrees around yourself or move around things or people you do not want to cover with the gun’s muzzle. The SUL Position is designed for quick and efficient presentation of your pistol from a neutral body position. The term SUL translates literally to “South” in Portuguese. This emphasizes the fact that the gun is pointed down when using the SUL position.
To achieve the SUL Position, place your support hand flat and horizontal against your stomach on top of your bellybutton. Your strong hand with the gun is placed on top of your support hand, with your finger OFF the trigger and the gun’s muzzle pointed down toward the ground between your feet. The gun is slightly angled outward about 15-20 degrees away from your body, so as to not sweep or muzzle your feet. With SUL, both thumbs should be touching and form a square shape. The support thumb is pointing up towards the shooter’s chin. I believe it is important to recognize and practice this. (But, another variation says the middle finger knuckle of the strong hand and the crook of the support hand’s index finger should be the only points of contact.) The slide of the gun is held against the back of the knuckles of the support hand. The strong hand thumb is extended towards the support hand thumb. Other shooters with pistols having mechanical safeties say they must keep their thumb on the frame to engage the safety, but I believe this is primarily a training issue. I know as a 1911 shooter my thumb sweeps the safety off as the pistol comes up.
A typical mistake by some SUL users is that the pistol’s muzzle is canted outward about 45 degrees toward a nearly horizontal position with the strong hand. Of course, this is a safety hazard and negates the safe carry intent of the position. Also, if there is a need for a quick shot, the support hand could fail to get a good two-handed grip. An advantage of SUL is that it is comfortable and can be maintained for an extended time period, in addition to the muzzle-direction safety advantage.
When should the SUL Shooting Position be used? Generally, it is used in four fundamental situations. First, when you are moving among friendlies with your team of shooters and you are NOT the lead, front cover team member, with safety as your top priority. Usually, the first operator in a formation may present his/her weapon, but it is imperative the others orient their pistol safely. SUL allows this. Second, when friendly persons need to cross into your sector or line of fire when they are moving around teammates. Third, when you need a quick safe position to move the gun to when a friendly or another inadvertently crosses into your line of fire. Fourth, when holding or controlling the bad guy/gal until authorities arrive, without necessarily pointing your gun at them but being ready.
LOW READY (LR)
The LR position is one of the most frequently used ready positions for tactical shooting by law enforcement officers (LEO) and the military, when searching for a target or rapidly approaching a target area or threat. For law enforcement or the home defender, the LR is an excellent challenge position and you can see the bad guy/gal’s hands easily because the gun is pointed down away from your eyes. It is also a position often used in handgun training classes and competitive shooting events. Students use it at the range after a shot and just before they are ready to shoot again. So, we use it in our training classes when students are transitioning between targets and getting “Ready” to shoot again. Also, we use it to give students a calming break and for deep breaths to relax safely before the next shot. CAUTION should be used with new shooters and all shooters not familiar with this Ready position, since they have a loaded gun in their hands and are “Ready” to shoot again. Awareness of people around you, your surroundings, and your particular situation are very important with this READY position, as with all of them. It is the fastest position to move TO after initially shooting and the quickest to move FROM by simply raising the gun quickly back to the target. In this position, the shooter has the chance to verbally challenge a possible threat or to deescalate an attack at a distance. The shooter can keep their eyes on the target or threat and engage them quickly from this position.
To assume the LR position from the usual extension shooting position, drop the gun’s muzzle down to a 45-degree angle and point it outwards at the ground and in front of the target, NOT directly at the target and NOT directly down at the ground immediately in front of the shooter. The gun is held in the lower abdomen area.
A problem with the LR is that it can be difficult to maintain and hold for long periods of time. Also, at close combat, tactical distances, it may put your gun too close to your attacker who can grab it or immobilize you with a bear hug. During search and seek tasks, it may not allow you to move about easily and quickly when up close.
MODIFIED LOW READY (MLR)
The MLR position is very similar to the LR, but the gun is only lowered to about chin level and a little below your line of sight. The MLR advantage is that because the gun is lowered to just below your line of sight, you are more READY to quickly bring the gun back into your vision for front sight focus and alignment or point shooting. Another advantage of the MLR is that it is a very Ready position to help control a close-up attacker for compliance, so that firing a shot may not be necessary. Remember, AVOID confrontations if at all possible. With the MLR, as with any of the Ready positions, it is very critical that the shooter’s trigger finger be off the trigger, not in the trigger guard area, and with the gun pointed in a safe direction. The shooter should be Ready to fire ONLY if eyes and sights are on the target or threat AND you are “Ready” to shoot. With the gun held at chin level and it quickly being able to be brought into fire, it is very easy to move the gun to an unsafe position or have others cross in front of your muzzle with the MLR. So be very aware and BE SAFE with this and all Ready shooting positions, since you are so very “READY” to shoot.
Both Low Ready positions require that the gun be brought to the line of sight for firing from a non-extended arms position. Because the arms are not fully extended, it may be more difficult for the bad guy/gal to take the gun away from you with your arms in close to the body and not fully extended. Thus, better gun retention in several situations.
HIGH READY (HR)
The High Ready position is often called the Center Chest Position, since the gun is held with two hands high in the center of the shooter’s chest. It is a close-range position with the gun held in very tight and about 8 inches or so in front of your nose. Because the front sight can already be in line with your target or threat with the HR, it is usually faster than the LR for a shot.
In the HR, the forearms are resting on the lower ribs of the shooter with the muzzle of the gun held parallel to the ground at your center chest area and pointed slightly downward toward the area of the threat. Usually, the shooter can only see the gun in their peripheral vision. The gun can be immediately fired without sighting in close quarters (from the armpit) when held this way or it can be quickly brought up and extended outward for a sighted firing position. This is a very practical, real-world shooting position for close encounters (say 1 to 3 feet away), but may violate some local range safety rules and regulations. So, check with your range and be very careful if your gun’s muzzle is pointed somewhat upwards with limited space and when several folks are moving around you. You must also consider specific safety precautions with this position. Be aware that the gun is going to fire in very close proximity to your ears, eyes, and face, so be very careful and plan for this. You do not want to slip your grip, get bumped in your stance, or get startled in the HR.
Some say the HR is nothing more than the LR held at the sternum or center chest area, rather than lower abdomen area. Sometimes HR is referred to by some as “Hollywood Ready,” because it places the gun next to the actor’s face which makes a more dramatic scene.
MODIFIED HIGH READY (MHR)
MHR has the muzzle at a 45 degree cant upwards and a moderate distance from the body. The MHR can include the basic HR position with a change to only one hand being used. Some call the MHR the “Shooting from the Armpit” position or the “Close Retention High Ready” position. Here the gun is brought to the shooter’s strong side armpit while maintaining the two-handed grip with the muzzle pointed slightly upwards. Be careful with this position with the muzzle pointed upwards. SAFETY FIRST!
All Ready positions have pros and cons and are situational specific. I like the low ready position with its down and out position for the muzzle and opportunity for full field of vision. With the LR your arms may tire easily. Also, the SUL position works well for me in a crowded group of folks when you are moving around and very concerned with muzzle control. It is a very safe position in these situations. In special circumstances only, you may want to use the HR position, so be aware of the gunshot near your face, eyes, and ears. I hope my summary of Ready Positions has helped you as a starting point for your own research and decisions.
Continued Success & Be Safe!

Capitalizing on Niche Markets
Selling to Printing Consultants Businesses
The problem with selling to printing consultants businesses is that misguided efforts can threaten your entire plan for success. For business sellers prepared to compete, printing consultants businesses offer a dependable channel for sales and revenues .
Over the past several years, printing consultants businesses have experienced moderate growth rates compared to other businesses.
More often than not, the best B2B businesses achieve success through the consistent application of proven selling concepts. That's especially true in the printing consultants business industry where simple blunders can translate into losses in market share.
Sales Team Considerations
Most of the businesses that sell to printing consultants businesses take a team sales approach.
Although your team may be comprised of individual sales reps, each rep has to recognize that they are part of a larger sales unit and selling strategy. There is simply no room for lone rangers in this industry! Team-based training programs and other initiatives can be beneficial, but the best strategy for encouraging buy-in to a team sales model is for owners and managers to become role models for teamwork.
Reaching Prospective Customers
Prospecting transforms contacts into qualified leads.
Networking can fine tunes prospecting performance and conversion ratios. However, it's important to make sure your sales force isn't so focused on conversation that they miss the point of prospecting, i.e. the identification of likely buyers, key decision makers and high value industry contacts. In other words, quality is just as important as quantity when prospecting for printing consultants businesses.
Lead lists are helpful because they narrow the field for your team. Third-party lists from reputable vendors (e.g. Experian Business Services) provide a database of likely conversion targets, making it easier for your company to balance the quantity and quality demands that are prerequisites for effective prospecting.
Developing a Marketing Plan
A solid marketing plan is the foundation of a profitable sales strategy. Your team might be stocked with top-tier sales professionals, but if they aren't supported by strong messaging and effective marketing channels, your conversion rate will suffer.
Keep in mind that printing consultants businesses are fast-paced operations with little patience for drawn out sales meetings and follow-up cycles.
A thoroughly developed marketing plan helps to focus your selling proposition and deliver messaging in channels that are well received by your customer base. When combined with a sales plan, a marketing plan offers an effective selling strategy that delivers results.

"I don't think I was nervous even tonight," said Halak, who resumed his tenure in the Habs' net after he was benched for Game 4. "I was squeezing the bottle the same way."
And strangling any hopes the Washington Capitals had in closing out the first-round series in five games as Halak backstopped a 2-1 victory at Verizon Center on Friday night. The best-of-seven series shifts to Montreal in Monday.
It was in this building six days ago that replays showed Halak's hand appear to tremble as he grabbed a drink during the Caps' 6-5 OT win in Game 2. Two-time NHL MVP Alex Ovechkin told reporters that Halak was "nervous" and the pressure on the netminder was a good sign for Washington.
"He can say what he wants," Halak sighed. "Maybe it was shown on video [again] . I think if you squeeze the bottle, your hand's going to shake."
No matter. Halak has settled the Montreal's recently unstable goalie situation --- at least until he becomes a restricted free agent at season's end. Halak made 37 saves, the only marker coming off an Alex Ovechkin second-period goal.
Halak turned away all five Capitals power plays, including one in the third period that produced some of Washington's best scoring chances of the game. He stopped Alexander Semin twice during the two-minute minor and also made an acrobatic stop on a shot off Tomas Fleischmann's stick.
"I think obviously, (Halak) is extremely focused," said forward Travis Moen, who scored one of the Habs' two goals. "He battles and played extremely well and it shows a lot of about his character for sure."
Halak was benched by Montreal coach Jacques Martin after a 5-1 loss in Game 3 in which he was pulled in favor of Carey Price midway through the game. Price got the start on Wednesday and all but imploded as he was whistled for two unsportsmanlike minors in the Caps victory.
"I supported his call," Halak said. "I'm happy he gave me the confidence [in] giving me the call [Friday]."
Martin said his decision to switch goalies was never about Halak's play and it was done purely in attempt to change momentum in the series.
"Tonight coming back here, I felt that Jaroslav would bounce back with a strong performance," Martin said.
"Our team usually scores three to four goals because we have a very good attack," Varlamov said. "We weren't panicking. The first thing we needed to do was get ahold of our emotions and keep playing our game."

These animals are exotic pets so you won't find them in England. But you can buy them. They eat inverts but you you will have to do some research before buying one as they may need special care. Paddle-Tailed and Fire-Bellied newts can be kept together in a heated tank. Axolotls grow bigger and can be aggresive but can survive in a pond, however I'm not entirely sure if this is legal. You will need confirmation of that. I will post a picture of each creature. A good shop is Southern Reptiles (Cadnam), they stock all these species.
Hope this helps.
They are a lot more difficult to keep because they require livefood, heaters, UV bulbs, humidifyers, specialist equiptment and climbing apparatus. But... if you think you can handle that, they are very rewarding species and although harder to keep than newts or fish, they are some of the easiest species of exotic pet to keep. If you have friends who are reliable and don't mind newts or livefood, they can look after them. Also, reptile stores often do holiday keeping for a price...
Hope this helps

The ancients as well as medieval people never seemed to tire of meditating on the idea of the "rota fortunae" literally, the "wheel of fortune" as a reminder of the transitory nature of worldly success. Fate or luck, personified as the goddess Fortuna, was depicted turning the crank on a large wheel. Seated on the wheel were various people either ascending to the top of the wheel or descending to the bottom.
But to his left, clinging to the wheel with all his might, another man is being slowly raised up and the man ahead of him reaches for the prize.
I too managed to take a ride this evening on the "Rota Fortunae" . Of course, my turn on the wheel involved (what else?) gilding. The wheel started turning as I began carefully applying gold leaf to the bole of the halo of the icon of Christ that I have been hard at work on for the past couple of days.
After over an hour of painstaking work, I applied the final piece of gold leaf. There I was, the fellow reaching expectantly for the crown and orb, which appeared to be just within reach. After waiting for the requisite length of time , I began gently burnishing the gilding. That was when Bella Fortuna gave the wheel a turn -- the halo wouldn't burnish! And then she gave it another turn -- each stroke of the burnisher was scraping off the gold leaf!
Something, it soon became evident, was wrong with the bole, which meant that it had to come off. All of it, which involved soaking the bole, scraping it all away and then cleaning off the muddy red clay mess smeared on the icon.
So I'm ready to climb back on the wheel. I plan on hanging on tight and hoping that I'm on the upswing as I get ready to gild that halo again.
Is it my imagination, or does Fortuna have a slight smile? And isn't she supposed to be blindfolded?

Ballyorney House : Blooming in garden county
Ballyorney House offers stunning architectural restorations and six acres of award-winning gardens for e3.6m, writes Caitriona Murphy
Ballyorney House is a six-bedroom home with a unique mix of architectural styles that include an early Georgian residence with later Gothic-style additions and a modern guest lodge.
Situated on the outskirts of Enniskerry village in Co Wicklow, Ballyorney has an idyllic woodland setting, with six acres of award-winning gardens and stunning views of the Sugar Loaf mountain on the horizon.
The 743sqm main residence was completely restored by the current owners, property developer Mark Kavanagh and his wife Kathleen.
It now features a plethora of architectural features that have been incorporated in its restoration, many of which were salvaged from other period properties.
The ground floor accommodation includes a reception hall, drawing room, panelled study, office, ballroom/drawing room, service area/mini bar, card room, kitchen, breakfast room and back kitchen.
The reception hall has a Richard Castle sandstone fireplace, while the dining room's exquisite plasterwork ceiling dates from the 1720s and originated in the former Gilbey's premises on Dublin's O'Connell Street.
The dining room's white marble chimneypiece dates from the 1780s.
The red drawing room also features an elaborate Robert West plasterwork ceiling, which again originated in Gilbey's on O'Connell Street.
Perhaps the most impressive room is the large drawing room, which was remodelled in the style of the saloon of the Provost's House in Trinity College Dublin.
This room features a beautiful elevated Rococo ceiling that originated in Grove House in Milltown, while the carved Corinthian columns were rescued from a church in Borrisokane, Co Tipperary.
A gothic-style stairwell, featuring a staircase from 60 Middle Abbey Street, panelled walls and a ceiling painted by artist Phillipa Garner, leads to the first floor.
Upstairs, the master suite incorporates a bedroom, dressing room, bathroom and roof terrace.
There are also five more bedrooms (two en suite), a dressing room, family bathroom and gym.
An additional wing on the western side of the property includes an entrance hall, cloakroom, guest WC, family room, laundry room, kitchen, den/family room and bathroom.
The award-winning gardens of Ballyorney House were completely restored in the 1980s, under the supervision of garden-expert Rosemary Brown, whose parents occupied Ballyorney in the 1920s.
The work included re-planting of herbaceous and shrub borders, as well as construction of paths and two bridges crossing a stream that meanders through the garden.
The grounds also include a tennis court and paddock area.
The 80sqm guest cottage is a detached double-fronted residence, comprising an open-plan kitchen/living room and two en suite bedrooms.
The two-storey 163sqm coach house to the side of the property was also refurbished and now includes an out-office, guest WC and two large garages on the ground floor.
The first floor consists of a large, modern, open-plan kitchen/living room, two bedrooms and a bathroom.

Pinehurst No. 2 is one of the most-famous golf courses in the United States, site for multiple U.S. Opens and other big tournaments.
The photo above shows the run-up to the first green on Pinehurst No. 2. As you can see, sandy waste areas and bunkers play a major role on the No. 2 course. The course sits in the Sandhills region of North Carolina, and the original Donald Ross design (which opened in 1907) made use of the region's sand-and-pine-forest setting in the No. 2 course. It even had sand greens for the first couple decades after opening.
Ensuing decades, however, led to more and more turf covering up the sandy areas. Finally, beginning in 2010 and concluding in 2011, Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore renovated the No. 2 course to re-install those "sandscapes." The photos in this slideshow (with one exception) show the No. 2 course post-renovation.

In an astonishing discovery that could rewrite the history of human evolution, scientists say they have found the skeleton of a new human species, a dwarf, marooned for eons in a tropical Lost World while modern humans rapidly colonized the rest of the planet.
The finding on a remote Indonesian island has stunned anthropologists like no other in recent memory. It is a fundamentally new creature that bears more of a resemblance to fictional, barefooted hobbits than modern humans.
Yet biologically speaking, it may have been closely related to us and perhaps even shared its caves with our ancestors.
The 3-foot-tall (90-centimeter-tall) adult female skeleton found in a cave is believed 18,000 years old. It smashes the long-cherished scientific belief that our species, Homo sapiens, systematically crowded out other upright-walking human cousins beginning 160,000 years ago and that we’ve had Earth to ourselves for tens of thousands of years.
Instead, it suggests recent evolution was more complex than previously thought.
And it demonstrates that Africa, the acknowledged cradle of humanity, does not hold all the answers to persistent questions of how — and where — we came to be.
“This finding really does rewrite our knowledge of human evolution,” said Chris Stringer, who directs human origins studies at the Natural History Museum in London. “And to have them present less than 20,000 years ago is frankly astonishing.”
Shortest member of human family
Scientists called the dwarf skeleton “the most extreme” figure to be included in the extended human family. Certainly, she is the shortest.
She is the best example of a trove of fragmented bones that account for as many as seven of these primitive individuals that lived on the equatorial island of Flores, located east of Java and northwest of Australia. The mostly intact female skeleton was found in September 2003.
Scientists have named the extinct species Homo floresiensis, or Flores Man, and details appear in Thursday’s issue of the journal Nature.
The specimens’ ages range from 95,000 to 12,000 years old, meaning they lived until the threshold of recorded human history and perhaps crossed paths with the ancestors of today’s islanders.
Flores Man was hardly formidable. His grapefruit-sized brain was two-thirds smaller than ours, and closer to the brains of today’s chimpanzees and transitional prehuman species in Africa than vanished 2 million years ago.
Yet Flores Man made stone tools, lit fires and organized group hunts for meat. Bones of fish, birds and rodents found near the skeleton were charred, suggesting they were cooked.
All this suggests Flores Man lived communally and communicated effectively, perhaps even verbally.
“It is arguably the most significant discovery concerning our own genus in my lifetime,” said anthropologist Bernard Wood of George Washington University, who reviewed the research independently.
Discoveries simply “don’t get any better than that,” proclaimed Robert Foley and Marta Mirazon Lahr of Cambridge University in a written analysis.
Questions over classification
To others, the species’ baffling combination of slight dimensions and coarse features bears almost no meaningful comparison either to modern humans or to our larger, archaic cousins.
They suggest that Flores Man doesn’t belong in the genus Homo at all, even if it was a recent contemporary. But they are unsure where to classify it.
“I don’t think anybody can pigeonhole this into the very simple-minded theories of what is human,” anthropologist Jeffrey Schwartz of the University of Pittsburgh. “There is no biological reason to call it Homo. We have to rethink what it is.”
For now, most researchers have been limited to examining digital photographs of the specimens. The female partial skeleton and other fragments are stored in a laboratory in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Researchers from Australia and Indonesia found the partial skeleton 13 months ago in a shallow limestone cave known as Liang Bua. The cave, which extends into a hillside for about 130 feet (40 meters), has been the subject of scientific analysis since 1964. Fenced off and patrolled by guards, it is surrounded by coffee farms.
Older stone tools and other artifacts previously found on the island suggest that Flores Man is part of a substantial archaic human lineage.
“So the 18,000-year-old skeleton cannot be some kind of ’freak’ that we just happened to stumble across,” said one of the discoverers, radiocarbon dating expert Richard G. Roberts of the University of Wollongong in Australia.
But the environment in which Flores Man lived was indeed peculiar, and scientists say it probably contributed to the specimen’s unusually small dimensions.
Millennia ago, Flores was a kind of a looking-glass world, a real-life Middle-earth inhabited by a menagerie of fantastical creatures like giant tortoises, elephants as small as ponies and rats as big as hunting dogs.
It even had a dragon, although they were giant lizards like today’s carnivorous Komodo dragons rather than the treasure-hoarding Smaug described by novelist J.R.R. Tolkien in his “Lord of the Rings” trilogy.
Artifacts suggest that a big-boned human cousin, Homo erectus, migrated from Java to Flores and other islands, perhaps by bamboo raft, nearly 1 million years ago.
Researchers suspect that Flores Man probably is a descendant of Homo erectus that was squeezed by the pressures of natural selection.
Dwarfism in nature
Nature is full of mammals — deer, squirrels and pigs, for example — living in marginal, isolated environments that gradually dwarf when food isn’t plentiful and predators aren’t threatening.
This is the first time that the evolution of dwarfism has been recorded in a human relative, said the study’s lead author, Peter Brown of the University of New England in Australia.
Just how this primitive, remnant species managed to hang on is uncertain. Inbreeding certainly would have been a danger. Geologic evidence suggests a massive volcanic eruption sealed its fate 12,000 years ago, along with other unusual island species like the dwarf elephant species, stegodon.
Now, scientists are more puzzled by the specimen’s jumble of features that appear to be borrowed from different human ancestors.
Clues from the skeleton
This much is clear: Its worn teeth and fused skull show it was an adult. The shape of the pelvis is female. The skull is wide like that of Homo erectus. But the sides are rounder and the crown traces an arc from ear to ear. The skull of Homo erectus has straight sides and a pointed crown, they said.
The lower jaw contains large, blunt teeth and roots like Australopithecus, a prehuman ancestor in Africa more than 3 million years ago. The front teeth are smaller and more like modern human teeth.
The eye sockets are big and round, but unlike other members of the Homo genus, it has hardly any chin or browline.
The rest of the skeleton looks as if it walked upright, but the pelvis and the shinbone have primitive, even apelike features.
Bones from the species’ feet and hands have not yet been found. Delicate artifacts found in the cave were described as “toy-sized” versions of stone tools made by Homo erectus. They suggest that Flores Man retained intelligence and dexterity to flake small weapons with sharp edges, even if its body shrunk over time.
“I’ve spent a sleepless night trying to figure out what to do with this thing,” said Schwartz. “It’s a mind-blower. It makes me think of nothing else in this world.”
Even more speculative is whether Flores Man met with modern humans, and what might have happened.
Folklore experts have reported persistent legends of little people living on Flores and nearby islands. Islanders called the creature “Ebu Gogo” and say it was about 3 feet tall.

Portraits from Nicaragua
Over the course of two weeks, with Tilly Gobble from Photographers Without Borders, we traveled across Nicaragua visiting our partner communities. We talked to dozens of community members and asked them if we could share pieces of their stories, and lives, with you. This exhibit is what they shared with us.
Natalie & her brother, Janiero, Jiñocuao
“Now I’m studying veterinary medicine at the National Autonomous University of Nicaragua (UNAN-Leon). I chose veterinary medicine because I like animals, and what’s more, I like looking out for the health and well-being of animals. Like many people say, vets are their protectors. I also wanted to be a vet because the family had a problem with our sheep but a vet couldn’t come here, so I saw the necessity of the career. We saw the need for more vets not just here in the house, but also the neighbours and their animals. That’s why I decided to study to be a vet.”
Eloisa Garcia & her sons, Luis & Byron, Santa Julia
Growing up, Eloisa never had the opportunity to study. Today, she's the President of the Gloria Quintanilla Women's Cooperative in Santa Julia. She’s in charge of selling the cooperative’s coffee. She learned to do the math to figure out how much profit each woman from the cooperative gets when they sell their coffee to foreigners & in local markets. She's proud that her kids haven’t grown up the same way that she did and that they had the opportunity to go to school.
Lola Esquivel, Santa Julia
“The most difficult fight in the community has been water. It’s been land rights. And the most difficult fight of all is being a woman, and raising our voices. To say loudly ‘no more violence, no more mistreatment, I’m going to have the kids that I want to have.’"
“Art nourishes us and fills the soul, it entertains us. We hope this project empowers us all, especially the youth. Art is a creative outlet so that youth don’t turn to different vices that are hard to quit, like alcohol and drugs. Our students are improving, which means that the school is improving, despite the difficulties we’ve had.”

Synthesis and electrochemical study of CoNi2S4 as a novel cathode material in a primary Li thermal battery
MetadataShow full item record
Altmetrics Handle Statistics
Altmetrics DOI Statistics
In this work CoNi2S4 was investigated as a candidate cathode material for Li thermal batteries. The CoNi2S4 was synthesized by a solid state reaction at 550◦C in a sealed quartz tube. Neutron powder diffraction was utilized to confirm normal spinel structure up to 200◦C, however, there was cation disorder above this temperature. The electrochemical properties of the batteries were investigated at 500◦C by galvanostatic discharge to elucidate the mechanism and the products NiS, Co3S4 and Co9S8 of the discharge mechanism were confirmed using powder X-ray diffraction. CoNi2S4 exhibits two voltage plateaus vs Li13Si4 at 500◦C, one at 1.75 V and the second at 1.50 V. CoNi2S4 has an overall capacity of 318 mA h g−1 from OCV 2.58 V to 1.25 V vs Li13Si4 which is comparable to that of the well-known metal disulfides

by Antonio Caperna
Editor in Chief, International Society of Biourbanism, Italy
In 1984, Edward O. Wilson’s book Biophilia introduced the hypothesis that humans possess an innate tendency to seek connections with nature and living beings. Since then, many studies have been published about the role of natural structures on our mental development and neuro-physical well-being. The role and influence of nature and natural forms on humans opened new and interesting scenarios centered on biology and evolutionary processes. One of the emergent fields has been the role of biophilia in design, and more generally, in the built environment. Much research has focused on this topic and aimed at ameliorating the quality of the city, including our daily aesthetic and cognitive experience of it.
After analyzing the literature, I have come to believe that there is still much work to do in answering specific questions. What is the deep meaning of biophilia? How can we recognize real biophilic design beyond the use of plants and green infrastructure? Why do ancient built environments seem more “biophilic” than most modern constructions? Finally, should we not address the political and economic structure of our society if we want to make our world “biophilic”?
These and other questions should guide our research for building a better environment. Too many architects and planners have reduced biophilia to a mere “green approach” where green infrastructure is presented as the panacea to solve every problem of contemporary cities. Consequently, architects and planners vow to fill cities with plants, green façades, roofs, et cetera. Such a childish approach marks the gap from real biophilic design. The use of vegetation is nothing but a small piece of biophilia, as European cities abundantly show with the limited support of patios and small gardens. Their successful design comes rather from the enforcement of rules, which provide a connection between the built environment and the purposes of the community. They constitute a bridge on which ancient masters have built a living architecture.
Biourbanism stresses the relevance of biophilic design in connecting and strengthening life to support people’s cognitive, social, and psychological needs in space.
Biophilic architecture should thus be characterized by three attributes: 1) a naturalistic dimension; 2) wholeness of the site, and 3) geometric coherency. All of these attributes reinforce social interaction by supporting the unfolding of inclusive environments that reflect the inborn affinity between human being and nature, and at the same time, are capable of supporting our neuro-physiological, psychological, and biological systems.
This current issue of the Journal of Biourbanism is dedicated to biophilia and design.
In “Connecting with Nature: Biophilic Design in Environments Built for Communal Living”, Carol Price and Gary Skolits examine the role of biophilic design in developing therapeutic landscapes and restorative spaces. This works enriches the therapeutic landscaping literature with a focus on people who have been diagnosed Alzheimer’s and dementia.
The second contribution entitled “Human-Nature Interaction Patterns: Constituents of a Nature Language for Environmental Sustainability” by Peter H. Kahn, Elizabeth M. Lev, Sara Park Perrins, Thea Weiss, Trecia Ehrlich, and Daniel S. Feinberg, analyzes interaction patterns. The Authors suggest that saving nature is not enough of a step. Humans should interact more with nature, and interaction pattern design can help reach such a goal. To illustrate this notion, they discuss over 60 interaction patterns to expand the idea of biophilic design in supporting environmental sustainability.
In “A Psychological Approach to Olfactory Information as Cues in Our Environment”, Kai Hamburger and Harun Karimpur discuss how olfactory information can facilitate our landmark-based spatial orientation. The Authors show how sensorial support may be very useful in nursing homes and clinics. Scents, as an attribute of biophilic design, can enhance cognitive abilities and quality of life.
The contribution “Relationship between Urban Morphology and Patio Housing in Mediterranean European Cities during the XV–XVI centuries” by Valentina Pica investigates the use of the typological model of the patio house and its relation with the urban form in Mediterranean Europe during the 15th–16th centuries. Pica analyzes the construction phases of more than 20 traditional houses in the historic center of Granada, Spain. Her study is linked to several analyses that focus on traditional architecture and the role of the medina in the Islamic West.
The work of Paul Downton, “The Promise and the Limits of Biophilic Architecture”, proposes the combination of biophilia as a way to support human health and biourbanism as an approach to support urban life in all its forms. The Author also suggests that the limits of biophilic design are not strictly dependent on biophilic sensibilities, but rather on valuing nature for its intrinsic worthiness.
“The Implications of Fractal Fluency for Biophilic Architecture” by Richard P. Taylor, Arthur W. Juliani, Alexander J. Bies, Cooper R. Boydston, Branka Spehar, and Margaret E. Sereno discusses how fractal forms interact with the human visual system. The Authors analyze how fractal art and architecture facilitate navigation. The visual effect of fractal patterns generates an aesthetic experience accompanied by stress mitigation.
Finally, the contribution by Zaheer Allam “Smarting an Existing City in Mauritius: The Case of Port Louis”, proposes an ecologically sound approach to the “smartization” of the capital city of Mauritius as an extension of biophilia into urban- scale service design.
The biophilic approach is a turning point for design. Next, biourbanism studies should address the realization of a coherent framework able to extend and transform this corpus of observations, laws, and principles into a set of practical design and building tools.

President Trump refused a St. Patrick’s Day lunch invitation from Nancy Pelosi, citing her past history of politicizing such moments and her efforts to “tear this nation apart.”
It will be the first time in seventeen years a sitting President has not attended the event, which is typically hosted by the House Speaker and has it’s roots all the way back to President Ronald Reagan.
Leo Varadkar, the taoiseach of Ireland, travels to the United States annually to attend the lunch.
White House Statement Rips Pelosi
“Since the Speaker has chosen to tear this Nation apart with her actions and her rhetoric, the President will not participate in moments where she so often chooses to drive discord and disunity, and will instead celebrate the rich history and strong ties between the United States and Ireland at the White House on March 12,” White House Spokesman Judd Deere said in a statement.
The statement went on to say President Trump would instead host the Prime Minister of Ireland for the annual Shamrock Bowl presentation, a tradition that began 67 years ago.
The White House pinned President Trump’s decision not to attend the St. Patrick’s Day lunch — a bipartisan tradition celebrating US-Ireland relations — on his strained relationship with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. https://t.co/eWWpl8M5No

Pelosi Is Fuming
Needless to say, Speaker Pelosi was not all that pleased with being publicly snubbed by the President of the United States.

In her own statement, she slammed Trump for his “petty” reaction to her career efforts to divide this nation.
“There has never been stronger support in the Congress and in the country for the U.S.-Ireland bilateral relationship,” a spokesman for the California Democrat stated.
“One would think that the White House could set petty, partisan politics aside for this historic occasion.”
— The Hill (@thehill) March 15, 2019
Who Exactly Is Petty?
The statement out of Pelosi’s office is especially rich considering the House Speaker recently took the State of the Union address – a historic occasion in its own right – as an opportunity to rip up the President’s speech like a petty and petulant child.
In fact, she even admitted pausing briefly when she came upon a transcript page in the address regarding a soldier’s touching homecoming … and shredding it anyway.
— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) February 18, 2020
And she has the audacity to refer to President Trump as petty because he chooses not to share lunch with a person so full of hatred?
Pelosi also recently referred to herself as a “lioness” in an interview with Variety, and claimed the President is the “the most dangerous person in the history of our country.”
Who wouldn’t want to dine with such a charming individual?
