Royal Mail have painted a post box gold in the wrong town, following the gold medal victory for Team GB cyclist Laura Trott.
Trott won gold in the Olympic team pursuit contest at the Velodrome on Saturday, prompting Royal Mail to issue a stamp showing the three cyclists and to paint a post box gold in each of the athletes' home towns.
However, Laura Trott's home town was incorrectly listed as Harlow rather than Cheshunt, leaving Royal Mail staff red-faced and the incorrect post box painted gold. Laura tweeted: 'So people i need you to tweet @PostOffice for me.. my postbox is going in harlow which isnt in my hometown Cheshunt is where it should be!!'
A Royal Mail spokesperson said: 'We tweeted her straight back to say we'll be delighted to do one in Cheshunt as well.'

CHICO — Thanks to a donor who wishes to remain anonymous, Chico State’s Big Chico Creek Ecological Reserve has nearly doubled its size, and is now the largest contiguous ecological reserve or field station in the California State University system.
Chico State announced in a press release Wednesday that the reserve, which was previously 3,950 acres, has added an additional 3,885 acres of land and now sits at 7,835 total acres.
As the donor wishes to remain anonymous, Big Chico Creek Ecological Reserve Director Eli Goodsell said that the property does share a border with the reserve’s current land, however the university is not disclosing the direction of which it is adjacent to.
Goodsell said in the release that a management plan will be developed over the next two to three years to help identify and prioritize ecological goals for the land. The plan will include establishing baseline data on the new land as well as a current-conditions report to determine how to best steward the resources.
Chico State’s Big Chico Creek Ecological Reserve has been part of Chico State since 1999 and is located on ancestral land from the Mechoopda tribe roughly 14 miles east of Chico State.
The gift is the second significant gift the Big Chico Creek Ecological Reserve has received thus far in 2021. Former Chico State Professor Wes Dempsey and his wife Phillis donated $1 million to the reserve establishing an educational fund in honor of their son David Dempsey.
In the release, Goodsell expressed his gratitude towards the anonymous donors as well as future supporters of the reserve.
“This land gift elevates the Big Chico Creek Ecological Reserve to a place of prominence, with its increased acreage and ability to do more of the consequential work it already does,” said Chico President Gayle Hutchinson in the release. “With fire mitigation exercises and hands-on outdoor classroom experiences for our students — as well as teaching the scientists and environmental stewards of tomorrow — the university is prepared to meet the ecological and conservation challenges of the 21st Century.”

The most neglected books in the Old Testament are the Wisdom books, and so it is nice to see Chris Wright look at “mission” in light of what the Wisdom books teach (2d half of chp 13: The Mission of God). Several themes open up the borders for missional thinking, and they take this discussion in new directions.
So what does mission look like if we pursue such through Wisdom? The Wisdom movement of the Old Testament is an ancient form of the best themes and questions of the emerging movement of our day.
How often — think about this one with me — does the wisdom tradition of the Bible come into play in our modern missional movement? Does a wisdom approach create the difference we find today between the missional/incarnational approach and the evangelistic/attractional approach?
There is one major theme to begin with: Israel’s wisdom is seriously connected to the ancient middle eastern wisdom traditions of Egypt and Babylon. There is clear evidence Israel both borrowed common themes from these wisdom traditions and then adapted them to their own faith. They drop the gods/goddesses and the use of magic and occult practices.
So, mission looks like this:
1. Use common human themes.
2. Welcome the wisdom of the nations.
3. Critique the wisdom of the nations.
4. The wisdom bridge is not in itself redemptive: it is not enough; but it is a bridge to the gospel.
Second, if the rest of the Bible operates with a redemptive approach to life, Wisdom operates with a creational approach. It roots itself in creation rather than God’s redemptive acts. Law says “don’t do this” and Wisdom says “this isn’t intelligent.” The focus is on our common humanity.
Third, Wisdom admits to an honest, struggling, mysterious faith. One finds doubts in Wisdom. Think Ecclesiastes. Yes, the Torah says, be obedient and God blesses. Well, Wisdom says, not always. How, they ask, does Torah respond to the realities we experience.
(Hence, Wisdom is the emerging movement of the Old Testament!)

CNN’s O’Brien leaving morning show
New CNN boss Jeff Zucker said Thursday that he has reached a deal to help fund a production company for O’Brien, who will be making three documentaries for CNN and host this year’s “Black in America” documentary. Zucker is developing a new morning show around Chris Cuomo and Erin Burnett.
O'Brien said the deal will let her do what she wants to do most, confronting difficult topics and telling underreported stories. She’ll also have the opportunity to own her work and the production company is able to sell material to outlets other than CNN.
Her new company, Starfish Media Group, will also develop theatrical and scripted television projects.

MoGo is expanding its tire print next year with about 30 new bike stations in Detroit neighborhoods and five nearby cities, adding nearly 150 new bikes to the bike share system.
Through its Transportation Alternatives Program, the Southeast Michigan Council of Governments provided a $495,380 grant to bring the bike share program to Berkley, Ferndale, Huntington Woods, Oak Park and Royal Oak.
MoGo expects to bring the new locations online in the spring, about two years after its launch in Detroit. The investment adds on to the current network of 43 stations and 430 bikes. Organizers are in the preliminary stages of planning and have not mapped out where or how many stations and bikes each city will receive, spokeswoman Sydney Perkins said.
MoGo said it will work with the Better Bike Share Partnership and respective municipalities to engage communities and residents in the location selection process. Stations will be situated to better connect riders with other transportation services such as DDOT and SMART buses and the QLine, it said in a news release.
"People's transportation needs don't stop at city borders," MoGo founder and Executive Director Lisa Nuszkowski said in the release. "Expansion of bike share sends an important message about our ability to work together to solve transportation challenges in the region while providing people with an affordable and convenient way to get where they need to go."
In May, MoGo said it would test renting hand tricycles, two-wheel tandem bikes and others that provide wider accessibility.

This is a really hard one to rate because the taste changed quite a bit over time. I'd highly recommend making this as least 5 minutes before you plan on drinking it just for the flavours to mature. After some time the apple flavour really comes out, but right after shaking it's really heavy on butterscotch and vodka. This isn't a cocktail for the lightweights! Tatsy but deadly!! Thanks JackieMarie!

- 2 fluid ounces apple Schnapps
- 1 fluid ounce butterscotch schnapps

Cumbria Chamber of Commerce says 'Cumbria has been a major beneficiary of EU funding over the years'
Jamie Reed MP has said that "...many people have voted to make their lives worse because they don’t believe that life can get better."


Pastor Robert Schlageter was heartbroken when he looked out at row after row of empty pews at St. Anne Catholic Church in Columbus.
The church, like others in the Diocese of Savannah, were no longer holding in-person services because of the spread of the coronavirus.
The first service sans parishioners was “shocking,” said Schlageter, pastor of the 1,500-member congregation. “It was so disconcerting because I never thought we’d get to the day when we’d be praying the mass without our people. We looked out in the congregation and there was no one there. It was really sad.”
So, the friars came up with a way to still see the faces of their beloved congregation and keep the connection.
Borrowing an idea from a priest in Italy, they asked students at the St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School and members of the church to send their photos. The response was overwhelming.
More than 650 people emailed photos, including some who heard about the project and don’t even attend St. Anne.
Now, “the church is almost filling up,” said a very happy Schlageter. “Now we we look out we see their faces. For a Catholic priest, obviously, we have our families but our people are our families, too.”
Micki Kaye was thrilled about the project and planned to send her photo as soon as possible.
Kaye, who has been a member for about three years, said she was feeling separated from her parish. “My heart was so full of joy. This has to be divinely inspired, for sure.
She noticed a photo of her granddaughter in the church.
“This is where faith comes in, when you can elevate a situation that has so much worry, so much sadness and so much separation into something that has so much joy."
The friars at St. Anne are members of the same order, the Conventual Franciscan Friars, as Archbishop Gregory John Hartmayer, who will lead the Atlanta archdiocese.
He doesn’t know how long the church will not have in-person mass, but he thinks this experience could be a meaningful one for the community.
“It’s teaching all of us how much we mean to each other.”

Nandamuri Balakrishna may be a junior to Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu in politics. But now, the TDP Supremo is always seeking Balayya’s advice in one aspect. It is the Vaasthu knowledge. Balayya is a great believer of such beliefs and is also an expert in Vaasthu. Earlier this year, the actor personally visited NTR Bhavan in Hyderabad and made Vaasthu changes to the building.
Those changes worked in the favour of the party and TDP came to power in Andhra Pradesh. And now Chandrababu wants to demolish his house in Jubilee Hills, Road No.65 as it is very congested and will be building a bigger one in its place. It is said that Chandrababu requested Balayya to personally supervise the building construction so that it will be built with perfect Vaastu. The construction of the house will begin from December.
Chandrababu’s family will be residing in Lake View Guesthouse till the new house is ready. Chandrababu’s family visited the guesthouse yesterday and have suggested some changes to suit their living. These changes will be made in the next 2 months and the guest house will be ready to host Chandrababu’s family by December.

Prayers that you continue to protect your heart and your health and keep kindling the light of love, peace, and kindness in your own ways.
One way that we are trying to protect our mental and physical health in our house is by eating more vegetables and fruits.

There on the beaches of Sabanita, Nick and his buddy Winsor drink, surf, and—most of all—escape, buoyed away from their pasts on south swells and Tecate. Nothing epic. That is until Winsor’s girlfriend, Meagan, ends their abusive relationship and flees with her two boys to the safety and solace of Nick’s beachside casita. A monsoon season fling of convenience turns into a torrid love affair as new loyalties and dark secrets are shaped into something like a family. But when the local policía struggle to identify a body that has washed up in the surf, Nick realizes his secrets—and sins—have caught up with him. And there are dangerous new surprises that have yet to roll in with the tide. . . .
A gifted storyteller, Hasburgh drops readers into the middle of a gripping, heartwarming, viscerally compelling page turner. At once tender and deadly hysterical, Pirata is a novel readers won’t soon forget.
About the Author
Patrick Hasburgh is a former TV and film writer, producer, and director best known for 21 Jump Street and Aspen Extreme. Patrick left show business in 2000 to pursue backcountry skiing, warm ocean surfing, and writing fiction. His first novel was a finalist for the Shamus Award; Pirata is his second novel.
Praise For Pirata: A Novel…
— Kem Nunn, author of National Book Award Finalist Tapping the Source
“Pirata is a great summer ride. It’s rare to find a novel that’s so harrowing, funny and touching at the same time, but Patrick Hasburgh somehow pulls it off. His surf-bum narrator is a new classic—think of Philip Marlowe, on a longboard.”
— Carl Hiaasen, New York Times bestselling author of Bad Monkey and Razor Girl
“There’s an authenticity that can only come from really living amongst and in the lives of your characters. Hasburgh paddles us into the fresh yet classic world of Pirata and sets us up squarely to explore family, fatherhood, profound loss, and epic waves.”
— Peter Berg, Emmy Award-winning director of Friday Night Lights
“Funny, surprising and original. Pirata is a really good read.”
— Michael Craven, Nero Wolfe and Shamus Award-nominated author of The Detective & the Pipe Girl
“Pirata rip curls with tenderness, wisdom and offhand brilliance.”
— Richard Christian Matheson
“Compellingly written…Surfing and crime have come together before, most notably in Kem Nunn’s cult classic Tapping the Source and in Don Winslow’s The Dawn Patrol, but Hasburgh ups the ante.”
“Emotionally satisfying...an affecting read.”
— Kirkus Reviews
“A thoughtful thriller… Hasburgh tells a moving human story.”
— Publishers Weekly
“So damn good.”
— Aspen Daily News
“A hugely readable book about surfing, loving and bad tidings.”
— Buffalo News
“Pirata fits perfectly in the surf noir tradition—think Boone Daniels from the Don Winslow series…. Hasburgh has a keen sense of plotting [and] a soulful way with his big cast of characters.”
“Hasburgh has created a great story, part thriller and part family saga. Even those who don’t know anything about surfing will find it exciting. Pirata is A-one. I would recommend it to anyone.”
— Reviewing the Evidence

Sinead O'Connor threatens Miley Cyrus with legal action over Twitter row
The unlikely war of words between Miley Cyrus and Sinead O'Connor has continued apace, with the Irish singer threatening the controversial young star with legal action.
The argument started when Cyrus compared her "Wrecking Ball" video to O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U" clip in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine.
After getting calls from reporters begging for her thoughts on the comparison, O'Connor took to her website to post an open letter to Cyrus, warning her that her sexually provocative image showed she was being exploited by the music industry.
Cyrus took to Twitter, comparing O'Connor to the actress Amanda Bynes, the troubled star who was reportedly recently moved to a private treatment facility. In the tweet there was a link to a screen-grab of tweets from O'Connor, in which the older star was asking for help with her bipolar disorder.
In addition, Cyrus posted a picture of O'Connor ripping up an image of Pope John Paul II on Saturday Night Live.
She then wrote: "Sinead. I don't have time to write you an open letter cause I'm hosting & performing on SNL this week. So if you'd like to meet up and talk lemme know in your next letter."
In her second and third letters to Cyrus, O'Connor was predictably furious.
"Taking me on is even more f****** stupid than behaving like a prostitute and calling it feminism," she wrote.
"Ms Cyrus has today posted tweets of mine which are two years old and which were sent when I was ill and seeking medical help.
"She has done this in an attempt to deliberately cause me harm and hurt. I wish to confirm that I am quite well and kindly request people cease emailing me in the mistaken belief these are recent tweets."
Threatening legal action, she wrote: "Ms Cyrus' lawyers will be contacted by mine regarding this matter."
O'Connor said she had no interest in meeting up with Cyrus, but added: "You can take five minutes today between g-string f****** changes to publicly apologise and remove your abusive tweets."

I robot, your job
Each newly installed robot displaces an average 1.6 manufacturing workers. And by 2030, as many as 20m additional manufacturing jobs worldwide could be displaced by robotisation, according to the How Robots Change the World report from Oxford Economics.
However, the research shows that the negative effects of robotisation will disproportionately hit the world’s lower-income regions as a new robot displaces nearly twice as many jobs in poorer areas of the same country.
“At a time of worldwide concern about growing levels of economic inequality and political polarisation, this finding has important social and political implications,” states Oxford Economics.
The most vulnerable regions are removed from the wealthier districts of their countries – such as Cumbria in the UK, Franche- Comté in France, and the high desert of Eastern Oregon in the US – and they often include towns or cities with strong manufacturing heritages. In contrast, regions that surround knowledge-intensive cities, such as Toulouse and Grenoble in France, or Munich and Stuttgart in Germany, typically show much lower levels of vulnerability to the rise of the robot.
“As the pace of robotics adoption quickens, policymakers will be faced with a dilemma,” says the report. “While robots enable growth, they exacerbate income inequality. Automation will continue to drive regional polarisation in many of the world’s advanced economies, unevenly distributing the benefits and costs across the population. This trend will intensify as the impact of automation on jobs spreads from manufacturing to the services sector.”
ROBOTS UPDATE: The UK government is investing £6.3m into farm robot innovation. The cash will go to the University of Lincoln which is looking to develop a centre of excellence in agri-robotics. The new facility will look into how robots can tend and harvest crops.

Slow-Cooker Nacho Bean Dip
I tried this dip for Super Bowl Sunday. Now I love refried beans, but this dip was not good. 2 cans of refried beans is entirely too much. I was quite disappointed in it. Not sure if I will try it again with only one can or not.


MARION COUNTY—One person was injured in an accident just after 3p.m. Friday in Marion County.

Zvezda 1/48 Su-2 Kit First Look
|Date of Review||June 2014||Manufacturer||Zvezda|
|Kit Number||4805||Primary Media||Styrene|
|Pros||Nice detailing||Cons||Nothing noted|
|Skill Level||Experienced||MSRP (USD)||$39.99|
When Josef Stalin issued a requirement for a strike-reconnaissance aircraft in 1936 under the codename Ivanov, The Tupolev Experimental Design Bureau (OKB) responded with the ANT-51 aircraft which first flew in 1951. Designed by one of Tupolev's designers, Pavel Sukhoi, the type was considered solid but underpowered. The Shvetsov M-62 820 horsepower engine was replaced with the Tumanski M-87 rated at 1000 horsepower.
The new combination was put into production initially as Short-Range Bomber 1 (BB-1) in 1940 but the unreliable M-87 was replaced by the Tumanski M-88B and redesignated as the first of Sukhoi's designs as Su-2. By the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War (Hitler's attack on Russia), the Su-2 was considered underpowered and outgunned. Sukhoi rearmed and re-engined the Su-2 with the Shvetsov M-82 rated at 1400 horsepower and designated as Su-4, but the type was replaced by the Ilyushin Il-2 Shturmovik, Petlyakov Pe-2, and Tupolev Tu-2 in front-line service.
Late last year, Zvezda released an interesting new subject in 1/48 scale, Pavel Sukhoi's first officially recognized design. This kit is molded in light gray styrene and presented on three parts trees and one tree of clear parts. This kit was definitely anticipated by Russian modelers as Begemot has released a comprehensive decal set representing 48 different examples.
Among the features and options in this kit:
- Detailed M-88 engine
- Detailed bomb bay
- Positionable bomb bay doors
- Choice of stowed or ready turret
- Detailed cockpit
- Optional seated pilot figure
- Optional standing gunner/observer figure
- Positionable canopies
- Positionable ailerons
- Positionable rudder
- Positionable landing gear
- Optional display stand
- Choice of four bombs in bomb bay or two larger bombs under wings
Markings are provided two examples:
- Su-2 M-88, Bort 15, 210 BBAP, Dec 1941
- Su-2 M-88, Bort 21, Winter scheme 1941-42
This is a nice looking kit that will render an interesting subject that will cause many modelers to stop and wonder what they're looking at. With the addition of the Begemot decal set, you'll have a wide variety of subjects and color options to choose from given the subjects limited operational lifetime.

Thousands of workers in several different low-pay industries--including fast food, airlines, and health care--staged protests throughout the country on Thursday to demand a $15 an hour minimum wage, improved benefits, and collective bargaining rights, marking the two-year anniversary of the movement that has come to be known as the Fight for 15.
Protests and walkouts began early Thursday morning as McDonald's employees in Chicago walked off their jobs, followed shortly by workers in New York; Washington, D.C.; Knoxville, Tennessee; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Indianapolis, Indiana; Rockford, Illinois; and elsewhere. Overall, more than 160 cities took part in the demonstrations.
"Low pay is not OK!" protesters chanted.
Others told personal stories of working at McDonald's for years and only ever receiving raises of five or ten cents at a time.
"I've been working at McDonald's for 22 years and I'm still making poverty wages," a worker named Tyree called into a megaphone at the Chicago rally.
Another man named Ronnie shared that he had recently been hospitalized for stress after working two jobs to make ends meet.
In New York, another McDonald's employee named Flavia Cabral told a rally that as the sole breadwinner for her family, who live in the Bronx, she split her time between the fast food restaurant and a shipping company in Manhattan.
"I'm the one who feeds my family, and even working two jobs, it's not enough," Cabral told the crowd, adding that the protesters were committed to seeing their demands met.
"I believe we're going to win. As many times as we have to do it, we're going to to do it," she said.
In addition to fast food and health care workers, contractors joined in the strikes, including those who work in federal buildings like the Capitol and the Pentagon, as well as the Smithsonian Museum and Union Station.
"We deserve more," one organizing group wrote in a statement. "Our bosses pay us poverty pages, while we work hard every day to make them millions. It's not right."
Tens of thousands of airport workers also joined in the protests, writing a letter to the executives of American Airlines, Delta, Southwest, United Airlines, JetBlue, and Alaska Airlines that they "pledged to stand together" with protesters from other industries. About 40,000 airline workers were expected to join in the strike.
Efforts to institute higher wages have seen fruitful returns in San Francisco and Seattle, where city governments voted to make the full jump to $15; in other cities, like Washington, D.C., plans are underway to raise the minimum wage to $11.50 by 2016, while Chicago will see theirs at $13 by 2019. And President Barack Obama in February signed an executive order that would raise contractors' wages to $10.10.
But none of the fast food chains that were specifically called on by the protesters to raise wages have committed to the demands; in fact, as one man pointed out at the Chicago rally, the owner of the McDonald's targeted by workers on Thursday had lobbied aldermen in the area not to vote to increase minimum wage in the city. In 2013, the average pay for restaurant workers was $8.74 an hour.
"When they were planning to strike and ask for $15 an hour in 2012, people thought they were crazy," said organizer Kendall Fells. "Two years later, it doesn't sound so crazy."

The four major labels are interested in broadening their online video footprint by adding Hulu, a video site that streams on-demand television shows, to the list of online outlets that offers music videos, as previously reported by Billboard. Labels in the Warner Music Group stable are particularly interested, as they currently are unable to use YouTube due to the company’s ongoing licensing negotiations.
But, an online report at Bloomberg stating that Hulu will be competing with Vevo.com, the service in development by Universal Music Group and YouTube, is inaccurate and confuses the mission of the Vevo service. The Vevo site is designed as a central repository for all music videos of those labels signed on (currently only UMG). Vevo will not compete with other online video sites, but rather will act as a syndication machine for them.
UMG and any other labels participating in Vevo will post their videos to Vevo and through the joint venture sell advertising around them. Other sites can stream those same videos – like Hulu, YouTube, or Yahoo – by striking a syndication agreement with Vevo.
According to the Bloomberg story, Hulu won’t offer ownership in the site to music companies the way it does TV and film studios who contribute content. Universal is working to bring other record labels into the Vevo fold, but it is not clear whether it is offering them an ownership stake in the venture either.

Federal regulators are preparing to vote on a plan to protect deep water corals and other sensitive fish habitat that will likely include a permanent ban on bottom trawling in large tracts of the Pacific Ocean.
SAN FRANCISCO Federal regulators are preparing to vote on a plan to protect deep water corals and other sensitive fish habitat that will likely include a permanent ban on bottom trawling in large tracts of the Pacific Ocean.
The Pacific Fishery Management Council, which advises the federal government on West Coast fishing regulations, is expected to choose a plan Wednesday that will identify "essential fish habitat" in federal waters, which extend from three miles to 200 miles off the coasts of California, Oregon and Washington.
The plan will likely include measures to protect those areas, ranging from restrictions on fishing gear to setting aside areas that will be off-limits to trawling, the technique of dragging weighted nets on the ocean floor in search of rockfish, ling cod and other bottom-dwelling fish.
"What's at stake is the long-term sustainability of our fish and wildlife resources on the West Coast," said Chris Dorsett, Pacific fish conservation manager at the Ocean Conservancy. "Right now we use means that are pretty damaging to habitats on the West Coast. We'd like to move toward means that are more sensitive to underwater ecosystems."
The plan is aimed at protecting West Coast groundfish habitat from trawling a practice environmentalists say damages deep water corals, kelp forests and rocky reefs that provide critical habitat for more than 80 species of groundfish and other marine organisms.
Fishermen, however, say there's no proof that trawling has hurt the West Coast groundfish fishery.
"There's no evidence that fishing itself has destroyed habitat so that the productivity of the fish stocks has changed," said Pete Leipzig, who heads the Fishermen's Marketing Association, which represents West Coast groundfish and shrimp trawlers.
Meeting in Foster City, south of San Francisco, the 14-member council must choose from more than a dozen proposals offered by environmentalists, commercial fishermen, recreational fishermen and other interest groups. The council will make its recommendations to the National Marine Fisheries Service, which is expected to implement the new regulations early next year.
In February, the North Pacific Fishery Management Council, which regulates waters off the coast of Alaska, voted to ban bottom trawling on more than 370,000 square miles off the Aleutian Islands -- a move hailed by environmentalists as a landmark in fishery management.
Protecting essential habitat represents a new approach to managing fisheries, scientists say.
"Fisheries management has been conducted for decades without paying attention to the habitat that produces the fish," said Rod Fujita, a marine ecologist with Environmental Defense. "It's always about protecting the fish populations themselves, but not their homes."
In 1996, Congress amended the 1976 Magnuson Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act to protect against overfishing and restore depleted populations by requiring the government to identify and protect essential fish habitats.
Two years later, the Pacific Fishery Management Council adopted such a plan, but environmental groups filed suit, claiming the council didn't adequately identify threats to West Coast groundfish or take strong enough action to protect them. A federal court sided with the environmentalists in 2000 and ordered the council to conduct a new analysis.
