About The Author
I am a lifelong resident of Los Angeles. My earliest memories of visiting Disneyland Park date back to 1972, when I met Mickey Mouse and proudly showed him the ears I wore on my head. My first trip was inspired by the late Disney voice legend Thurl Ravenscroft, a member of the congregation and choir at the church I attended, as he regaled everyone with tales of working for Disney. Thurl seemed especially proud of his contributions to the Haunted Mansion and America Sings, so some of my family and I eventually headed to Disneyland to ride Haunted Mansion in search of Thurl's singing bust. Unfortunately, as I approached the queue for the Haunted Mansion, I froze in terror and then ran off, screaming into the night. I don't think I finally decided to brave the ride for another few years. (It took me even longer to overcome my fear of Pirates of the Caribbean!) I enjoy solo trips to Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, as well as fun-filled trips with good friends. An unabashed Christmas fanatic, I am a sucker for the Holidays at Disneyland Resort, as well as the Halloween Time season and the more recent introduction of the springtime Egg-stravaganza event. I love to take photos, mainly for my own amusement, and can find beauty in even the simplest things in life. I am a firm believer in the philosophy that you don't have to journey to the highest peak, or to the deepest valley, to find beauty. You can find it around every corner, and in your own backyard.

Those of us who have spent over 10 years in the field know first hand that the face of the classroom has changed considerably. Long gone are the days when simple, whole class behavior incentive plans kept every student on an even keel. Even experienced teachers may not be sufficiently prepared to address the social and emotional needs of today's students, especially those struggling with anxiety. Anxiety disorders are alarmingly prevalent among U. Add to that other increasingly prevalent childhood conditions, including ADHD and autism, and teachers are facing new and overwhelming challenges.
What’s the Right Amount of Homework?

But instead of coming home every day filled with excitement about what she was learning, her third-grader would dissolve into tears as she faced up to three hours of homework each night. An Epidemic of Fear? All kids have their share of concerns. But Madison is one of a growing number of kids who are grappling with more serious forms of anxiety that, left unchecked, can have lasting effects, both emotionally and biologically. Chansky, Ph. Meanwhile, nearly 20 percent of kids have actually been diagnosed with one — everything from minor phobias, like a fear of dogs, to generalized anxiety, which is when kids worry about everything that could go wrong.
Should Students Have Homework?
Homework , or a homework assignment , is a set of tasks assigned to students by their teachers to be completed outside the class. Common homework assignments may include required reading , a writing or typing project, mathematical exercises to be completed, information to be reviewed before a test , or other skills to be practiced. It is often thought that Roberto Nevilis of Venice, Italy invented homework in as a punishment for his students. Upon further inspection, however, this seems to be more of an internet myth than a fact due to the lack of historic evidence.
Parents and educators question the value of setting assignments for students. But what does the neuroscience say? I teach both primary and secondary, and regularly find myself drawn into the argument on the reasoning behind it — parents, and sometimes colleagues, question its validity. Parent-teacher interviews can become consumed by how much trouble students have completing assignments. All of which has led me to question the neuroscience behind setting homework.

Chrissy Costanza answers seven out of thirty fan's questions picking the 38th, 12th, 13th 14th 22nd, 27th and 29th questions (Published on 24 October 2018)
Chrissy Costanza is also a vlogging sensation on her own self-titled YouTube channel which has over 803K subscribers.
Chrissy Costanza's Bio
Chrissy, who has a short height of around 5'2" (1.56 meter), was born on 23 August 1995.
She has a younger sibling named Mikey and has a close bond with him and even other family members.
While her parents had no talents to sing or play an instrument, they did possess an inherent love for music. As a result, she grew up in a household that encouraged her pursuit of a career in music.
Despite having passions for singing since her early age, she, however, had no second thoughts on educations and attended Fordham University in New York City.
Passion Turns To Profession!; Net Worth In Millions
22-years-old Chrissy always had the passion for singing.
She joined the band Against the Current as the lead vocalist at the age of 15 in the summer of 2011 after the band was formed in early 2011. She was introduced to the band members, Dan Gow, Will Ferri, Joe Simmons, and Jeremy Rompala by a mutual friend.
Later, she and her group started covering songs sung by famous artists such as Carly Rae Jepsen, Adele, Charlie Puth, Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift. Their covers eventually became a hit and amassed huge fans and subscribers for the band.
Chrissy even collaborated with other YouTube cover singers such as Sam Tsui and Alex Goot. On 31 July 2011, she also created her own YouTube channel and started posting vlogs about beauty and her self.
Later in 2014, Chrissy and her band released their first EP, Infinity. They even attended several tours to support the release of Infinity.
After a year in February 2015, Chrissy's second EP Gravity, which had six songs, got released. The band toured for four months in several continents including Asia, Europe, and North America to support their songs.
Chrissy's first album In Our Bones was released on 20 May 2016.
Moreover, the year 2016 turned out to be a good year for Chrissy and her band as a famous magazine Rock Sound announced that she would receive a column in their monthly magazine to talk about Against The Current's debut album, writing her lyrics for the band, touring and giving bits of advice on how aspiring groups can be successful.
Later she collaborated with Riot Games and created the single, Legends Never Die. She even had her singles Strangers Again and Almost Forgot released on 11 May 2018.
As of recently, she and her band has released a new album Past Lives in August, and they will be performing live on at YOYO in Paris, France in 10th of November.
With her covers and new videos on YouTube, Chrissy has earned the net worth that is estimated to be $1 million.
Designer Boyfriend Makes Life Special, Expresses Love On Social Media
Chrissy Costanza is blissfully dating a freelance designer Cameron Hurley, who also happens to be the guitarist from We Are the In Crowd.
Though it is known that the pair started dating since 2015, it is not sure how and where the couple met. Nevertheless, both the lovebirds timely flaunt their relationship in social media accounts by sharing pictures of each other.
The love-birds love-filled posts on social media prove that they are arguably one of the cutest couples in the whole world.
Their bonding has been exceptional. They like to spend time together - the pair even went to watch the baseball game of the New York Yankees on 5 May 2018. She later uploaded a shining picture of the two on Instagram.

Similarly, in 2018's Valentine's Day, Chrissy uploaded a slideshow of pictures with her bae, and via the caption stated that her life is better with the presence of her boyfriend.
Twist In The Tale: Has Their Relationship Broken Down?
The love-birds who had been in a healthy relationship seems to have parted their ways. The rumors hit the deck after it was known that Chrissy had deleted all the posts that related her to Cameron.
Fueling in the theories was Cameron being away from Instagram for almost eight months. However, he is back active on social media but he also has not made any post regarding his relationship with Chrissy.
Well, It would be too early to judge but as it seems the couple might have broken up.
But nothing can be said until the couple spill the beans.

Triple Split White Gold / Grey
|Material: ||White gold|
|Diameter: ||43.20 mm|
|Height: ||15.60 mm|
|Lug Width: ||22.00 mm|
|Indexes: ||Stick / Dot|
The manufacture calibre L132.1 is a newly developed movement that significantly distinguishes itself from the caliber L001.1 of the 2004 Double Split. The power-reserve indicator has been shifted down to provide more display space for the rattrapante hour counter in the upper part of the dial. Despite the extended functionality, the engineers succeeded in integrating the additional components in the movement so ingeniously that the case did not have to be enlarged in comparison with the Double Split. A glance through the sapphire-crystal caseback reveals the chronograph movement finished to the highest Lange standards as well as the painstakingly choreographed interaction of wheels, levers, springs, clutches and jumpers that illustrates the stunning complexity of the project.
The L132.1 features a total of 567 parts including 46 jewels. Its diameter is 30.6mm at a height of 9.4mm.
|Brand:||A. Lange & Söhne|
|Time:||Hours, Minutes, Small Seconds|
|Chronograph:||Chronograph, Column wheel, Flyback, Rattrapante|
|Additionals:||Power Reserve Indicator|
The A. Lange & Söhne Triple Split was introduced at SIHH 2018. It features rattrapante functions for the seconds, minutes, and hours - with the latter being the obvious upgrade over the original 2004 Double Split. The inaugural reference 424.038 is a limited of 100 pieces. It pairs a white gold case with a grey dial.

No more bailouts!
After paying back its $182 billion bailout, the American International Group is now considering whether to sue the government agencies that rescued it during the financial crisis. A.I.G.’s board is meeting on Wednesday to weigh joining a $25 billion lawsuit filed by Maurice R. Greenberg, the company’s former chief executive, claiming that the bailout cheated shareholders, DealBook’s Ben Protess and Michael J. de la Merced report.
The board members owe a duty to shareholders to consider the lawsuit, which could put the company in line for a potential payout. The lawsuit does not argue that the government’s help was not needed, but rather claims that the onerous nature of the rescue “deprived shareholders of tens of billions of dollars and violated the Fifth Amendment, which prohibits the taking of private property for ‘public use, without just compensation,’” DealBook writes.

Point Bicycle Kitchen puts old bikes back on their wheels
Share this article:
Durban - The concrete floor at the Durban Bicycle Kitchen in the Point is covered with old Dutch bikes, tools, tubes, and the mandatory tyre pump.
It’s the new kid on the block set to get the cycling scene cooking, and you’re welcome even if you don’t own a bike or know how to ride one.
“We are a space where people who have an interest in bikes and cycling can come and ask questions, share experiences, donate old bikes, or tools, or take on the rebuilding of a bike as a project and donate it,” said Gabriella Peppas, head “cook”, as they call themselves, rather than volunteer.
Peppas started the Kitchen about a month ago, based on a bicycle kitchen she participated in when she lived in Los Angeles several years ago.
“I love cycling and fixing up my own bikes, and I used to visit the Los Angeles Bicycle Kitchen a lot and worked on my bikes there with other people.
“It was a great fun space and I want to recreate the same thing here in Durban. This trend of the kitchens has grown around the world in the past few years. I’m a big advocate for a cycling community and eco-friendly transport systems. And, of course, Durban has great weather for cycling,” she said, adding that the team would show off what they do at this weekend’s Sustainable Living Expo.
The team has already fixed dozens of old bikes that were destined for the scrap-metal heap, and donated them to deserving young people.
“We want to expose people who have never ridden a bike before to it, but also empower them with skills to fix their own bikes. This is why we have this space now where anyone can come and get their hands greasy fixing up old bikes that we can donate,” she said.
The Kitchen hosts Tuesday evening sessions, where people can join in.
“We are looking at hosting female-only sessions as well, to teach women about bikes. People often think it’s men who know how to fix things, so we want to change this. We are also looking at hosting many more mass-cycling events,” she said.
One of the “cooks” is Sineziwe Khumalo, 25, who only recently learnt how to ride a bike, and who was the recipient of a donated bike.
“It’s incredible being able to maintain my bike myself and cycle all along the promenade,” she said.

Three prominent leaders of Tunisia’s once-dominant Ennahdha party have initiated a hunger strike to protest their detention following a crackdown on opponents of President Kais Saied.
The party, along with the wife of one of the detainees, confirmed the hunger strike on Monday.
Sahbi Atig, a former leader of Ennahdha’s parliamentary bloc, has been refusing food for 32 days, resulting in a significant deterioration of his health.
After visiting him in prison, his wife, Zeineb Mraihi, expressed deep concern, stating, “He lost 17 kilograms (37 pounds), his heart rhythm is weak, and he can hardly speak.” Atig was briefly admitted to intensive care last week.
President Saied dissolved Tunisia’s parliament in July 2021, enabling him to rule by decree and triggering a wave of protests. Ennahdha, an Islamist-inspired party, had been the largest faction in the parliament.
Last month, Ennahdha leader Rached Ghannouchi received a one-year prison sentence on terrorism-related charges, which the party condemned as an “unjust political verdict.”
Since February, more than 20 political opponents and public figures, including former ministers and businesspeople, have been arrested by Saied’s administration. Atig has been in custody since early May under suspicion of money laundering.
Ennahdha revealed that Ahmed Mechergui, a former member of parliament, initiated his hunger strike on Sunday to protest his incarceration since April 18.
Another leading figure in the party, Youssef Nouri, who was arrested around the same time, has been on a hunger strike since April 25 to protest the conditions of his detention and the violation of his fundamental rights.
The European Parliament expressed concern about President Saied’s “authoritarian drift” in a non-binding resolution passed in March.
Saied has labeled the detainees as “terrorists” involved in a “conspiracy against state security.”

News: Is abortion debate interfering with women’s health initiatives?
With the G-8 summit fast approaching, you might think that Canadians who champion women’s health issues are coming together to
This week, woman’s group Match International, is claiming that the Conservatives have cut funding to 11 women’s groups as an "ideological punishment" for those who support abortion funding in the maternal health initiative , reports The Canadian Press. Last week the government announced that, under the G-8 initiative, the federal government will not fund women’s health programs that involve abortion.
With all this bickering and supposed retaliating that’s going on because of this issue, can you really blame Senator Nancy Ruth for dropping F-bombs? The Conservative senator advised women’s groups to "shut the F-up" over the abortion issue at a meeting on Parliament Hill for women’s rights groups. Here’s what she said as reported by the CBC:
"If you push it, there’ll be more backlash. This is now a political football. This is not about women’s health in this country."
Gasp if you must over her choice of language (though I think it’s apt) but do you agree with her sentiment? Regardless of your opinion on abortion, do you think the issue is overshadowing the good that can be done as part of the G-8 initiative? Or should women’s groups keep on protesting the initiative’s lack of abortion funding?

Turmoil in the reinsurance market means that it will be a little longer before Alabama's coastal insurer of last resort will figure out how much it will pay this year to pass off some of its risk.
Officials of the Alabama Insurance Underwriting Association, meeting Friday in Point Clear, said that their brokers are still trying to buy reinsurance. Reinsurers, they said, were trying to figure out how much money they would pay out for the Japanese earthquake and tsunami before selling any more coverage.
"We won't know anything for another week or 10 days," said Bob Groves, who manages the 20,000-customer operation, which offers bare bones policies at higher prices to Mobile and Baldwin property owners who can't get policies through traditional insurers.
The association is not a true insurance company but a group of state-regulated property insurers who write more coverage elsewhere than on the coast. Reinsurance is the biggest part of the pool's budget, and has been a factor driving rate increases in recent years. Last year, the pool spent more than $20 million, or more than 60 percent of its budget, to buy coverage protecting its member insurers from losses in a slot between $100 million and $435 million.

Trudell Medical International (TMI)
Today our operating company, Trudell Medical International, consists of 230+ employees focused on our mission of ‘helping people breathe better and live fuller lives’. Our business is focused on designing, developing, manufacturing, marketing and selling respiratory care devices used globally by people who suffer with Asthma, Cystic Fibrosis (CF), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Bronchiectasis and various other respiratory diseases. Our team members are located in various parts of the world (USA, Canada, UK, Europe and Japan) and bring their passion and know-how every day to their work, making each of us excel in living out our mission.
Over the last four to five years, we have increased our global presence with business developers in key global markets, new direct sales teams in key markets such as the UK, as well as transitioning key distributor relationships that had lost vitality over the years. During the same time, we have also increased our focus on patients and how to accomplish concurrent new product development with them and their care givers, using design-thinking methodologies.
We have improved our clinical and economic evidence perspectives to accelerate our product adoptions in key health systems. We have continued our automation journey in manufacturing and invested to continue to develop our teams’ skills through a focused industry 4.0 journey. We have launched Aerobika OPEP device in key markets – the UK, Netherlands, Germany, India and Saudi Arabia. Our animal health business has more than doubled in the last five years and the pandemic has further accelerated the growth of the product line. Along with some serendipitous events and our product superiority – aiding in a highly probable FDA approval in the generic pMDI market – we grew the dose indicator product line by more than 10 fold. These improvements have contributed to the growth and diversification of our product portfolio.
Approximately 10% – 20% of the world population suffers from a respiratory illness. It’s a growing challenge for health systems to address rising costs while improving quality of care. Lack of highly sensitive and specific diagnostic tools to identify and categorize different disease phenotypes, has been a challenge in the respiratory space. Additionally, the complexity of medication delivery (nebulization or pMDI or dry powder inhalers) kept adherence to respiratory medications at sub 50% levels. With acceleration of technologies such as electronics, molecular diagnostics and biologics, we are entering an era of personalized medicine which will help people breathe better and live fuller lives.
The other day, some of our employees were volunteering at the London Food Bank on Leathorne Street in London, Ontario. It dawned on me that it was that building in which Trudell Medical Business once resided and served the world and today, that same space is serving the London community. Our drive to serve the world through innovative products, processes and collaborations continues. Ralph Waldo Emerson’s saying, ‘to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived; that is to have succeeded,’ keeps us living out our mission of ‘helping people breathe better and live fuller lives’.

Microsoft Rolls Out ‘Proof-of-Authority’ Ethereum Consensus on Azure
Microsoft has just rolled out an additional consensus mechanism for clients building ethereum-based apps on Azure that does away with mining.
Called “proof-of-authority,” the mechanism notably replaces the proof-of-work mining process that is common in public blockchains. However, it is only applicable in a permissioned network scenario – that is, on private or consortium blockchains where only invited parties may participate as nodes, Azure software engineer Cody Born wrote in a post on Tuesday.
The addition of proof-of-authority allows Arure’s institutional clients to verify transactions more efficiently and maintains high levels of security, Born said, although “the underlying ether has no value.”
“An alternative protocol, Proof-of-Authority, is more suitable for permissioned networks where all consensus participants are known and reputable. Without the need for mining, Proof-of-Authority is more efficient while still retaining Byzantine fault tolerance.”
Proof-of-authority consensus essentially requires the presence of invited parties as a proof of their participation in the decentralized network.
To that effort, the post said the mechanism allows “each consensus participant to delegate multiple nodes to run on their behalf” – the goal being to ensure that even if one node goes down, a consensus authority can still maintain its presence on the network.
The addition follows Microsoft’s May launch of the Azure Blockchain Workbench – a tool designed to streamline the process for enterprises building decentralized applications on the cloud computing platform.

The Zika virus reached the United States in 2015; In Brazil, which was hit hardest by the epidemic, about 1.5 million people were infected with the virus in the same year, and potential side effects were starting to appear.
Zika virus has appeared in different African and Asian countries since its discovery in Uganda in 1947; but it wasn’t until 2013 when it started spreading to neighboring Pacific islands, affecting about 13% of the population of French Polynesia.
In 2014, several international sports events were held in Brazil – such as the FIFA World Cup. Researchers suspect that the virus was transmitted to South America by people arriving from Pacific islands.
The virus has since spread throughout South and Central America – as far as Puerto Rico, including the Caribbean.
The virus was seen again in 2021. In the state of Kerala, India, 14 people were found to have Zika virus. The virus was first detected in a 24-year-old pregnant woman who was admitted to the hospital with headache, fever and rash on 28 June.
Since 2015, two people in Spain, three in Britain, and about a dozen people in the US have tested positive for Zika virus. The virus has also been associated with a baby born with microcephaly in Hawaii.
However, it should be noted that American and European cases consist of people who have recently visited places where the Zika virus has been found. So it is not correct to say that the virus reached the places where these people were diagnosed.
On February 3, U.S. officials rated 30 countries with a ‘Level 2’ travel health warning due to local Zika virus reports. This means travelers need to be extra vigilant to protect themselves from mosquito bites and prevent Zika. Countries receiving the alert include American Samoa, Barbados, Bolivia, Brazil, Cape Verde, Colombia, Costa Rica, Curacao, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, French Guinea, Guadeloupe, Guatemala, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Martinique, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, Saint Martin, Samoa, Suriname, Tonga, Venezuela and the US Virgin Islands.
Pregnant women are warned not to stay in these areas if possible, no matter what month they are. Women who are considering becoming pregnant should consult their doctor before traveling. When travel is unavoidable, pregnant women and women who want to become pregnant must follow the strictest protocols against mosquito bites. They need to use products with active ingredients such as DEET or picaridin on bare skin.
Within a few decades of its discovery, Zika began to appear throughout Africa and in several Asian countries. But because its symptoms were relatively mild – transient fever, rash, joint pain and redness of the eyes – it was not considered a major threat compared to other mosquito-borne diseases.
However, this situation started to change in 2007; The virus broke out on the southwest Pacific islands of Yap. This date marked the first appearance of the virus outside of Africa and Asia. In 2013, as predicted, a large-scale Zika epidemic began in French Polynesia. This time, however, the epidemic came with a 20-fold increase in Guillain-Barré syndrome – a rare autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the nerves.
The Zika virus reached the United States in 2015; Brazil took the hardest hit of the epidemic. In the same year, about 1.5 million people were infected with the virus, and potential side effects were starting to appear.
It was thought that the epidemic progressed in parallel with the increase in babies born with a birth defect called microcephaly. Microcephaly is a condition in which the brain does not develop normally in the womb and the baby is born with an abnormally small head. It can have lifelong consequences for the child, such as intellectual disability, delayed development, and seizures.
Between 2010 and 2014, about 156 babies were born with microcephaly in Brazil. However, from October 2015 to January 2016, this number increased to 4000 babies. The researchers suspected that these babies had been exposed to the Zika virus in the womb, and the virus had severely affected their development.
Researchers are still trying to confirm the association between the Zika virus and conditions such as microcephaly and Guillain-Barre syndrome. But countries under the epidemic, such as Brazil, Colombia, and El Salvador, have already begun warning women to delay pregnancy.
Looking at the migration of other mosquito-borne diseases, it’s easy to see that the virus has recently emerged in states like Texas, Florida, Hawaii.
The migration routes and global travel patterns of mosquitoes carrying Zika virus may mean that the virus will continue to spread before the epidemic ends. Experts say the best way to resist Zika is to fight the mosquitoes – by destroying the stagnant water they breed in and disinfecting areas with mosquito repellents.

Pussycat Dolls sign multi-million comeback deal
The Pussycat Dolls are making a comeback after bandmembers Nicole Scherzinger, Carmit Bachar, Ashley Roberts, Melody Thornton, Jessica Sutta and Kimberly Wyatt signed a multi-million deal.
The Pussycat Dolls are making a comeback.
Nicole Scherzinger, 41, and bandmates Carmit Bachar, Ashley Roberts, Melody Thornton, Jessica Sutta and Kimberly Wyatt have reportedly signed a multi-million deal to reunite and go on a huge world tour.
A source told The Sun's Bizarre column: "Nicole has long turned down offers for a reunion but with the 10-year anniversary of their hiatus passing, she finally said she was ready.
"Nicole was made a multi-million pound offer to re-join the group and was given a huge advance which made it impossible for her to turn down.
"The tour is going to be huge and the group will be playing their greatest hits. But there has been talk of the possibility of them recording new music.
"It's in the early stages but now they're going to be back together, a couple of them, including Nicole, have said they'd be open to working on some new sounds together."
The group - who split in 2009 - is expected to head out on tour in 2020.
Earlier this year, Nicole hinted at a reunion when she revealed she missed touring with her former bandmates.
She said: "I miss touring. That's why I'd love to one day go back out so it could be a party.
"When I went solo after, I really enjoyed touring with my dancers and I was like 'God I miss my girls'. I'd love for us to be able to get back out and just enjoy it and breathe."
And Melody recently revealed she would be open to a reunion.
She said: "I don't think a Pussycat Dolls reunion is impossible to fathom. I love and respect my bandmates, so when the stars align."

‘Coughing’ Scallops Caught on Tape
by Kelly Servick
Ahem: A cough cannot be hidden—and when scallops cough, scientists should listen. A scallop “coughs” to expel feces and water from its central cavity; the friction between the mollusk’s two valves makes a sharp crack, followed by a drawn-out puffing noise as the valves quickly close. Now, a team of biologists and acoustics experts says those sounds can serve as an early warning system for worsening water quality.
Because the sonically striking coughs are distinct from the choruses of other marine noisemakers such as shrimp and sea urchins, the researchers found that, by using submersible acoustic sensors called hydrophones,they could record the scallops’ outbursts from up to 10 meters away, they reported this week in the Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology…

What has four tiny hooves and is covered with stripes? Monarto Safari Park’s newest zebra foal!
Born to experienced mum Kali last week, the little one has settled in with the rest of the herd and can be seen trotting beside mum as the group move around their whopping 180-acre exhibit.
Monarto Safari Park keeper Alice Hardstaff said the addition of a new foal is great news for the herd.
“Kali’s foal is settling in quickly which shows how comfortable the herd are since their move to the new exhibit in March,” says Alice.
“It will be thrilling to look around this exhibit and see it teaming with even more animals in future, and this foal is hopefully just the first in a long line of stripy new additions.”
It’s believed the foal is a little girl and staff will keep an eye out for confirmation, but at this stage, Kali is doing a great job of keeping the foal at a distance!
The zebra is sadly classified as near-threatened with extinction by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Contrary to popular belief, the zebra population in the wild has declined in 10 out of the 17 range states in Africa since IUCN Red List assessments began.
Threats to this iconic species include livestock farming, ranching, hunting, trapping, drought and war and civil unrest.
As a conservation charity, Monarto Safari Park is working to save animals like the zebra from extinction through a breeding program ensuring an insurance population of healthy zebra genetics is continuing, as well as through facilitating opportunities for the public to connect with this incredible species.
Visitors to the park will have two opportunities to see zebras if they hop on a free Zu-Loop bus tour, but this herd, including the newborn foal, is behind-the-scenes as part of the new Wild Africa precinct.
This first stage of the Wild Africa development, known as “Etosha” after Etosha National Park in Namibia, now houses eight Plains Zebra, five Eland, 39 Scimitar-horned Oryx, along with 17 Blackbuck, one male Waterbuck and seven Ostriches.
Down the track, the area will also house other free-ranging species like Giraffe, Bongo, Nyala, Hippos and Southern White Rhino.
Monarto’s Wild Africa vision is no small project – over 550 hectares (1,400 acres) have been planted with specific grasses to not only provide food for the huge number of animals who will call the area home, but also to create scenes reminiscent of the African Plains.
Work is continuing on site for the exciting upcoming walk-through lemur exhibit with completion set for early next year, as well as more feral-proof fencing, irrigation and our Anthony Taylor Rhino Quarantine and Management Centre almost finished.
Visitors will be able to experience a Wild Africa safari at the park as early as 2022, with construction of the accommodation and Visitor Centre already underway.

Teen e-cigarette use predicts later marijuana use
Teenagers who smoke e-cigarettes are more likely to use marijuana in the following year, with young adolescents at an increased risk of heavy use of the drug, according to a study published in Pediatrics.
“There are several possible reasons why younger teenagers who use e-cigarettes may be more prone to later marijuana use,” Hongying Dai, PhD, research faculty and associate professor in health services and outcome research at the Children’s Mercy Hospital and the University of Missouri, Kansas City, told Infectious Diseases in Children. “Their brains are still developing, and nicotine exposure might lead to changes in the central nervous system that predisposes teens to dependence on other drugs.”
“Experimenting with e-cigarettes might also increase youths’ curiosity about marijuana, reduce perceived harm of marijuana use and increase social access to the drug from peers and friends,” she continued. “The adolescent brain has a heightened sensitivity to the rewarding effects of nicotine, and this sensitivity diminishes with age. In addition, younger adolescents tend to have lower impulse control and take risks when compared to older adolescents.”
To assess the relationship between e-cigarette use by adolescents and later marijuana use, the researchers conducted a study of teenagers aged between 12 and 17 years who were included in the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health study. Those who had reported never using marijuana at wave one (2013-2014) were followed up in a second wave (2014-2015).
Dai and colleagues then performed logistic regressions to identify the link between e-cigarette use during the first wave and ever or heavy marijuana use in the past 12 months and during wave 2.
Of the 10,364 teenagers included in the study, those who had never used marijuana but had used e-cigarettes during wave 1 were more likely to use marijuana within the past 12 months in wave 2 (adjusted OR = 1.9; 95% CI, 1.4-2.5). Adolescents aged between 12 and 14 years were at increased risk of future marijuana use (aOR = 2.7; 95% CI, 1.7-4.3), and a smaller, but present, risk was observed for teenagers aged between 15 and 17 years (aOR = 1.6; 95% CI, 1.2-2.3).
When age was considered in relation to heavy marijuana use, younger adolescents who used e-cigarettes in wave 1 were more likely to use the drug in this manner in wave 2 (aOR = 2.5; 95% CI, 1.2-5.3). The same association was not observed for older teenagers during wave 2.
“Tobacco use in any form is unsafe for youth,” Dai said. “E-cigarettes contain varying levels of nicotine and a number of potentially toxic substances, including some known or suspected carcinogens. For pediatricians, it is important that health screening for youth tobacco use include all tobacco products, especially e-cigarette products. It also is important for pediatricians to advise youth about the risks of e-cigarette use, including the propensity of progression to cigarette, marijuana and other substance use after cigarette use.” – by Katherine Bortz

Gov. Phil Murphy tweeted Sunday afternoon that the state was “closer” to entering Stage Two of his restart and recovery program — saying he’ll an “important announcement” at 2:30 p.m. Monday.
Stage Two — according to the “Road Back” plan Murphy released May 18 — is a time when more work activities are allowed at physical locations if they adhere to safeguarding and modification guidelines.
“Work activities to be phased-in over the course of Stage Two may include expanded retail, safeguarded restaurants with outdoor seating, limited personal care and possibly indoor dining, museums and libraries, all with significantly reduced capacity,” the governor’s release said.
In addition, it said some personal care services (think hair, nails) may be provided on a limited basis.
Thanks to your hard work, we’ve flattened the curve of #COVID19 in New Jersey and are now closer to Stage Two.
Join me live tomorrow at 2:30 PM for an important announcement.
— Governor Phil Murphy (@GovMurphy) May 31, 2020
Earlier Sunday, Murphy told a South Jersey radio station that he was hoping to reopen casinos by the July Fourth weekend. The restaurant industry, meanwhile, has been pushing for a Friday opening.
The announcement regarding Stage Two, made in a tweet sent around 3:30 Sunday afternoon, follows a weekend when the key health metrics — hospitalizations, the number of people on ventilators and the number of people in intensive/critical care — all had big drops.
But, if the numbers reported this weekend are close to the actual count, New Jersey will have plenty to celebrate.
The number of people hospitalized fell under 2,500 for the first time, reported as 2,469 on Sunday afternoon — a supposed measure of the state at 10 p.m. on Saturday night.
The number is more than 400 below what was reported a week before, when it dropped under 3,000 for the first time (2,993), and more than 1,100 off the total from two weeks ago, when it was 3,564.
The drop in ventilator use was more dramatic, as it came in at 378 — or 121 fewer than the number reported Saturday — down significantly from a week ago (638) and two weeks ago (828).
Finally, the number of patients in critical or intensive care also dropped. It’s now at 522 — far lower than a week ago (819) and two weeks ago (1,061).
The numbers should shake out in the next day or two, but it appears the state is continuing to make dramatic decreases in its three most important hospital metrics.
- The state reported Sunday there were 868 new COVID-19 cases, bringing the overall total to 160,455.
- The state also reported 66 more fatalities Sunday, bringing the overall total to 11,698.

What is Fennel on the grill?
Fennel on the grill is a delicious way to prepare and enjoy this versatile vegetable. It involves grilling sliced fennel bulbs until they are tender, slightly charred, and infused with smoky flavors. This method of cooking brings out the naturally sweet and aromatic qualities of the Fennel while adding an element of complexity that works well in many dishes.
If you’re new to grilling Fennel or looking for ways to elevate your grilled vegetables game, here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Fennel can be tricky to slice evenly, so use a sharp chef’s knife or mandoline slicer for best results.
- For a smoother grilling experience, consider brushing your slices with olive oil beforehand.
- The timing will depend on your preference but usually takes at most ten minutes, flipping them over halfway through or ahead if there’s need be;
Incorporating grilled Fennel into salads, pasta dishes, pizzas, and sandwiches could transform regular meals into exotic ones! What’s more? It adds substance to vegetarian diets as its low-calorie yet high-fiber content aids digestion!
How to Grill Fennel: Tips and Tricks for Perfect Results Every Time
Fennel is an incredibly versatile vegetable that you can use in a variety of dishes. One great way to utilize this delicious ingredient is by grilling it! Grilled Fennel adds a smoky, slightly sweet flavor to any dish, making it the perfect addition to salads, sandwiches, and pasta.
If you’re new to grill Fennel or just need some helpful tips and tricks for getting perfect results every time, we’ve got you covered with this comprehensive guide!
1. Choose Your Fennel
When selecting Fennel for grilling, make sure they are firm and fresh-looking. The bulbs should be plump and free from discoloration or soft spots. Look for medium-sized bulbs, as larger ones tend to have tougher cores.
2. Clean The Fennels
Clean your Fennel thoroughly before prepping them further—the best way to clean your fennels is by trimming off the green fronds (they taste aniseedy but aren’t suitable for grilling); cut each bulb lengthwise into 4-6 wedges.
3. Preparing For Grill
Preheat your grill on high heat until very hot while preparing the vegetables—this helps ensure even cooking on both sides.
To keep the wedges together during marination, coat these slices generously with olive oil, salt & pepper and mix well; let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, then place onto skewers, which makes flipping easier when charring up more consistently, browning around the entire wedge rather than overcooking one side while milder without enough color contrast on others
4. Grill Time
Place your prepared wedges onto a hot grill, directly grate down, and close the lid. Cook for about five minutes on each side, depending upon how charred desired. If possible, arrange the coals on a slight slope and allow juices to flow toward the lowest point into drip pan funnels. Discard later to enjoy a cleaner, tastier BBQ experience. Alternatively, line sheet pan unmarinaded leaves under the grill to protect them from scorching—this also makes removing the deliciously grilled wedges easier.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Once the grilling is done, Fennel can be served right away, either as a side or as part of a main course. Fennel’s sweetness pairs well with acidic tomatoes, briny olives, and sharp cheeses like Parmesan or Pecorino Romano. Try using grilled Fennel in homemade pizzas, salads, sandwiches, and even stir-fries!
In conclusion, Grilling Fennel is one of the easiest ways to give this vegetable an exciting new flavor profile while ensuring that its natural sweetness shines through. With these tips and tricks for perfect results every time, you’ll be able to create mouthwatering dishes that everyone will love! Happy Grilling!
A Step-by-Step Guide to Grilling Fennel Like a Pro
Grilled fennel can be a bit intimidating, but it’s actually quite simple once you know the basics. Fennel is a unique, flavorful vegetable that lends itself perfectly to grilling, offering a crunchy texture and delicate anise flavor that pairs well with many different types of dishes.
If you’re ready to take your grilling game up a notch by adding Fennel to your menu, here’s our step-by-step guide on how to do it like a pro.
Step 1: Choose the Best Fennel
Before we get started with the actual grilling part, it’s essential to choose the right kind of Fennel. Look for bulbs that are firm and unblemished, with bright green stems and leaves still attached. Larger bulbs tend to have more tender white flesh than smaller ones, so keep this in mind when selecting which size bulbs you want to use!
Step 2: Prep Your Grill
Start prepping your grill! Get those coals nice and hot, or heat up your gas grill until it reaches medium-high heat (around 400-450°F). Don’t forget about oiling your grate, too – this will help prevent sticking.
Step 3: Prepare Your Fennel
Slice off the top parts of each bulb of Fennel along with any rough spots around both ends. Cut into thin slices vertically—aim for pieces around one-fourth inch thick—and brush them lightly with olive oil before placing them on skewers, if desired, or directly onto the grill grates.
Note: If using skewers, remember to soak wooden ones beforehand, as they’ll burn otherwise!
Step 4: Season Your Fennel
For seasoning, go ahead and sprinkle some salt over all sides of each slice while also coating them generously with freshly ground pepper (or whatever other herbs/spices sound good!). This will ensure the perfect balance between salty/savory flavors alongside notes from its natural sweetness.
Step 5: Grill Your Fennel
Place the Fennel on your prepared hot grill grates and cook for a total of about six minutes – depending on thickness. Flip them once halfway through with tongs or a spatula until they have nice char lines that offer crisp texture without burning them to a blackened crisp. You’ll know this is done when the edges start to turn golden brown, so keep an eye out!
Step 6: Remove From Heat & Serve
Once you’ve finished cooking all of your fennel slices, remove everything from heat (e.g., remove from skewers if applicable) and transfer onto a serving plate alongside whatever other dishes you were planning on pairing their delicious smoky flavors with!
Grill Fennel is fantastic as either a main course ingredient or flavorful side dish because its flavor profile can complement many different types of proteins such as fish, poultry, and beef, or you can enjoy it simply by itself over top of salad greens, maybe even paired with goat cheese… mmm!
Grilled Fennel isn’t just reserved for culinary professionals – now armed with these step-by-step tips above, you’re ready to confidently approach grilled Fennel like solidifying yourself in front-of-house gourmet level status. Not only will mastering this fascinating Mediterranean herb spice up your kitchen repertoire, but it will also enrich any upcoming BBQ gathering, dinner party, or summer evening, delighting all who dare taste its unique yet savory flavor explosion!
Frequently Asked Questions About Grilling Fennel: Everything You Need to Know
If you’re a fan of Fennel or trying to incorporate more vegetables into your diet, grilling is an excellent option. Not only does it bring out the sweetness in this flavorful veggie, but it also adds that sought-after grilled flavor.
However, before jumping headfirst into grilled Fennel, here are some frequently asked questions (FAQs) that will guide you through everything you need to know:
1. What type of Fennel should I use for grilling?
Both Florence Fennel, known as Bulb Fennel, and Wild Fennels can be used for grilling; however, bulb fennel is typically what’s found at the grocery store and tends to grill better due to its shape.
2. Should I peel the Fennel before I grill it?
Yes! You’ll want to remove any tough outer layers with a sharp knife before slicing the bulb. Once trimmed down completely, cut them horizontally, leaving around a half-inch thickness maintained throughout each slice.
3. How do I season my grilled Fennel?
A delicate balance between herbs like garlic powder/onion powder/oregano/basil mixed with Olive oil works best on grilled Fenugreek/Sauf since they tend not to overpower their unique flavors, keeping intact thus bringing varied sensory notes within one dish itself, which spells sheer showmanship!
4. At what temperature should I grill my Fennel?
You’ll want your grill preheated- gas/electric/propane pellet gun up until reaching temp 350°F on medium heat setting generally takes anywhere from five to ten minutes time depending upon personal gadget specifications. Brush some olive oil over each piece, lightly placing after ensuring that all parts have been evenly coated carefully enough so none remain dry when cooking commences.
5. Do I need any special equipment for grilling Fenugreek?
Nothing too fancy is required while preparing Grilled Saunf, although having a grilling tray might come in handy so you can easily move each slice around without worrying about them falling apart as well.
6. How long should I grill my fennel pieces?
As a general rule of thumb, it’s best to heat the oven to 400 F and keep Fenugreek stirring every while till it turns golden brown, adding extra virgin Olive oil in between if need be, although small differences occur depending upon thickness uniformly sliced slices even cooking time is observed.
7. What are some ways to serve grilled Fennel?
Grilled fenugreek/Sauf pairs perfectly with warm goat cheese over flatbreads; drizzle lemon juice, add pine nuts for an exotic Middle Eastern touch, or top with freshly squeezed orange sauce on pansapeo-topped pizza crusts will definitely send your tastebuds into culinary heaven!

JetBlue Launches 'Election Protection' Promotion
Lose the election; win a free flight. That's the gist of a promotion JetBlue launched today, targeting the run up to the 2012 Presidential election this November. Entrants choose their desired winner for the Oval Office; if their candidate doesn't win they have a chance to win a ticket out of the country. The company is giving away 1006 free round-trip tickets—2012 free seats—to any of their international destinations once Election Day passes and the results are in. Destinations include the Bahamas, Grand Cayman, Turks and Caicos, and Costa Rica, among others.
"We've all heard it said before: if my candidate does not win, I'm leaving the country," said Marty St. George, senior vice president marketing and commercial strategy for JetBlue. "Fun is one of our five founding values, and in this spirit we decided to give people a chance to recover from the political noise and follow through on their claim to skip town if their candidate comes up short... Most importantly, we want to highlight the freedom we have as Americans to exercise our right to vote and encourage everyone to do their part on November 6. Live Free or Fly!"
This is the latest promotion from JetBlue tied to current events. The carrier famously offered commuter flights from Burbank to Long Beach in July 2011 when the 405 was shut down for a day and the city predicted "carmageddon" traffic problems. This promotion is a bit bigger, but then so are the presidential elections.
It is rare that an airline engages with its customers and has fun rather than just packing as many passengers as they can between airports. Finding a carrier with a sense of humor is refreshing indeed. And winning a trip to the Caribbean or Latin America certainly wouldn't suck.

Unfortunately, JetBlue is kicking to the curb the 40% of American voters who are independent and third-party, by not affording them an ‘independent’ or ‘other’ box to click in its ill-conceived ‘election protection’ poll. Independent voters are a larger group than either Republicans or Democrats. Shame on JetBlue!

AI and robotics experts from the National Robotarium based at Heriot-Watt University in Scotland have started work on what they believe is the world’s first multi-user conversational robots for healthcare.
Part of a multi million-pound collaborative project involving experts from eight European and Asian institutions, SPRING (Socially Pertinent Robots in Gerontological Healthcare) is the first research project to be announced by the National Robotarium, which opens its doors Heriot-Watt’s Edinburgh campus next year.
SPRING, a four-year project funded by the EU’s €80bn (£72.5bn) Horizon2020 R&D programme, will develop socially assistive robots (not pictured) with the capacity to perform multi-person interactions and “open social conversation” for the first time in a healthcare setting.
The work builds on the success of Heriot-Watt University’s Amazon Alexa Prize conversational AI system, Alana.
The project will focus on supporting elderly patients by carefully coupling scientific findings and user-focused technological developments to bring social robots into gerontological healthcare.
Professor Oliver Lemon, Heriot-Watt University, suggested that social robots could assist clinicians by helping to explain complex concepts to patients with limited medical knowledge.
Professor Lemon said: “Social robot technology is of interest for elderly care because robot companionship has the long-term potential to better connect people with each other.
“Research shows that the careful use of robots in group settings can have a positive impact on health, such as decreased stress and loneliness, and improved mood and sociability.
“Social robots could improve both psychological well-being and the relationship between patients and hospital professionals.”
Over the past five years, social robots have been introduced into many public spaces ranging from museums and malls to hospitals and retirement homes.
A recent example is North Bristol NHS Trust and the Bristol Robotics Laboratory at the UWE Bristol, which are currently collaborating on a partnership that will explore how emerging technologies such as AI, machine learning and assistive robots can support patients at home or in hospital.
Yet the technology has faced challenges: hardware and supporting software is often designed for reactive, single-user interactions, leading to limited one-on-one conversations, are among the main limitations to date.
This means that robots typically wait for commands or questions based on a limited set of scripted actions.
“While overcoming the limitations of current social robots raises numerous scientific and technological challenges, it has the potential to create tremendous social impact and economic value,” said Lemon.
“The National Robotarium’s focus on creating societal benefits is ideally aligned to addressing such challenges. This type of technology is touch-free and hands-free so will be in great demand in the future as it will reduce the risk and spread of infection.”
SPRING will develop new research into conversational AI, computer vision, machine learning and human-robot interaction, alongside human behaviour analysis and ‘sensorimotor’ robot control.
The work will focus on helping social robots to understand various individuals and group situations and take appropriate decisions such as identifying patients that have been waiting alone for a long time or who might be anxious. The social robots will ultimately engage in face-to-face conversation with patients, their family members, staff members, and with whole groups of people.

More than two-thirds of the U.S. public doesn’t support a federal government takeover of drone regulation, despite a push in Congress to preempt state and local drone rules, according to a new survey.
The survey, released by smart-cities research and advocacy organization Smart Government, underscores the opposition by some cities and local government groups to a provision in the Federal Aviation Administration Reauthorization Act that would make the FAA the sole regulator over drones, the group said. The provision would prohibit state and local governments from passing their own drone regulations and restrictions.
Some local governments want the authority to pass their own restrictions covering where drones can be used. The survey comes out the same week that a federal advisory committee has proposed rules that would expand the uses of small commercial drones.
In the Smart Government survey, 68 percent of those polled agreed that state and local governments should make drone rules because the federal government does not know the particular concerns of their community well enough.
Seventy-nine percent agreed their local government should be able to pass laws to restrict the use of drones flying low above their properties. Eighty-three percent agreed there should be restrictions on when and where drones are allowed to deliver packages.
And 69 percent said they believed drones should be able to operate for legitimate commercial uses with a combination of reasonable federal and local restrictions.
Despite some criticism of the provision in the FAA bill, the agency has defended its authority to regulate drones. It’s a myth that commercial drone use falls into a regulatory gray area, the agency said in a February FAQ.
“There are no shades of gray in FAA regulations,” the agency wrote. “Anyone who wants to fly an aircraft — manned or unmanned — in U.S. airspace needs some level of FAA approval.”
The FAA Reauthorization Act is awaiting action on the Senate floor. A spokesman for Senator John Thune, a South Dakota Republican and the bills’s chief sponsor, wasn’t immediately available to comment on the drone regulation provision.
Several groups have opposed an FAA-only drone regulation approach, however. In March, the Los Angeles City Council passed a resolution opposing the provision. “It is difficult for the federal government and its agencies to determine what types of restrictions or regulations are best in certain areas, so these choices should be left to
local jurisdictions,” the resolution said.
The National Conference of State Legislatures and the National Association of State Aviation Officials are supporting an amendment to the FAA bill that would strike the agency-only regulation provision.
The Smart Government-commissioned poll surveyed 578 registered voters across the U.S.


The Honda Marine outboard engines are exclusively Imported-Distributed in Greece since the late 1960’sby Saracakis Brothers S.A.
Since 1964, over 50 years ago, Honda has been manufacturing only 4-stroke outboard motors, which are approximately 90% cleaner, 50% more fuel-efficient and 50% quieter than typical 2-stroke outboard motors. Furthermore, the 2.3hp to 225hp engine line-up is of low maintenance thanks to precision engineering which results in tighter tolerances and better performance.
The Honda Marine range is complemented with the Honwave inflatable boats available in three different types (slatted, aluminum floor or inflatable floor), from2 to 4 meters.
Saracakis Brothers S.A. offers to customers a comprehensive range of genuine Honda marine parts and accessories through an extensive network of dealers, who are being continuously upgraded.

Celebrating the Year of the Nurse and Midwife
In recognition of the vital role nurses and midwives play in global health, the World Health Organization (WHO) has joined forces with the International Council of Nurses, the International Council of Midwives and the United Nations Population Fund to designate 2020 the International Year of the Nurse and Midwife. It is also in this year that we celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Florence Nightingale on May 12th.
Nurses constitute 50% of health workers in many countries and are vital to achievement of worldwide health coverage. The World Health Organization (2020) estimates an additional 9 million nurses and midwives are needed by the year 2030 – only ten years from now! According to the World Health Organization the year-long event celebrating the contributions of nurses and midwives has three goals:
• Celebrate the work of nurses and midwives
• Highlight the challenges they face
• Advocate for increased investments in the nurse and midwife workforces
Led by the World Health Organization, a State of the World’s Nursing report was made available for the first time on April 7, 2020, as well as a State of the World’s Midwifery report that was launched at the same time. Celebratory events are scheduled throughout the year and across the globe. To look for events that you might be interested in, or to add an event, visit the International Council of Nursing site at: https://www.2020yearofthenurse.org/member-events.
There is also a global photo contest with five categories (2020 Year of the Nurse and Midwife (2020):
• Nurses at Work
• Future Nurse
• Where I’m a nurse
• Why I’m a Nurse
• The Impact of Nurses
Look for the hashtag #NursingInFocus on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. The winners will be announced and displayed at: https://yearofthenurseandmidwife.org/.
A World Health Organization (2020) website features nurses from around the world. Their stories are fascinating, uplifting, and a tremendous source of pride. From cervical cancer screening in England, to bringing midwifery to northern Canada, to primary care in Poland – nurses and midwives are improving the health of people and changing communities for the better. I especially enjoyed the stories featuring nurses who care for patients in their homes - community nurses in Romania providing wound care, public health nurses in Guatemala administering HPV vaccines, nurses in the Philippines providing prenatal care to women in remote areas. Visit the website to read these and many more stories.
What are you and your colleagues doing to improve the lives of others? Add your story - stand up and be recognized alongside our inspiring colleagues from around the world.

Explore the sparse but stunning landscape of China's Mangya City
Surrounded by no man's land, Mangya City has impressed many visitors with its landscape and atmosphere. The county-level city sits in the northwest of Qinghai Province, bordering on Xinjiang, both in northwest China. The average altitude is 3,000 meters above sea level, and the climate in the plateau is dry, windy and cold. But the harsh environment has created stunning natural phenomena such as Aiken Lake and Feicui Lake.
Aiken Lake is also called the "devil's eye" because of how it looks from the sky. The lake's sulfur, alkaline soil and acid composition work together to create a magnificent image reminiscent of a landscape painting.
By contrast, Feicui Lake, or Emerald Lake, in Da Qaidam district is an artificial lake. But its beautiful emerald color attracts countless tourists. The lake used to be a mining area and a salt lake and is rich in potassium, magnesium, lithium and other elements.

Armed police called to Buckie stand-off
Register for free to read more of the latest local news. It's easy and will only take a moment.
ARMED police were called to stand-off in Buckie during the early hours of Sunday morning.
It followed reports of a disturbance in a house in Lawson Place, Buckpool after an ambulance had been called.
An area of the street was cordoned off during the incident, which ended peacefully, which ended with the arrest of 21-year-old Jay McIntosh.
He appeared from custody at Inverness Sheriff Court earlier today where he admitted behaving in a threatening manner, telling ambulance staff that he had a knife before shouting, swearing and punching a window on Sunday, January 23.
McIntosh also threatened three police constables with violence and challenged them to fight while repeatedly making racial remarks.
Defence solicitor Stephen Carty said "It began as an innocuous matter which got out of control."
No other details were told to Sheriff Sara Matheson who deferred sentence on McIntosh until February 17 at Elgin Sheriff Court when he has other matters calling.
Inspector Neil Morrison of Elgin Police Station thanked the local community for their patience and understanding as the incident unfolded.
He said: “We were made aware of a man causing a disturbance at a property on Lawson Place in Buckie around 5.40am on Sunday, January 23.
“Officers, including a number of specialist resources, attended and a 21-year-old man was subsequently arrested.
“Nobody was injured and the incident was contained to the single property.
“The local community are thanked for their understanding as officers dealt with the incident.”
