Rachel Bay Jones Interview
Here’s what Rachel had to say about being a devoted working mom who’s staying right here.
BWW Detroit: Does God Friended Me shoot in New York? And tell us about your screen schedule and how you balance parenting with being in a television series or Broadway show.
Rachel Bay Jones: It shoots throughout NYC, both on location and at Steiner studios in Brooklyn. My schedule with the show makes it a lot easier to be around for my daughter, and I’m grateful for that time after working a theatre schedule for so long. I can be around for her weekends and dinners and bedtimes, and that’s new.
BWW Detroit: You seem to be developing a niche for playing strong, courageous mothers – starting with Pippin, Dear Evan Hansen and now in God Friended Me, premiering on September 30. Do you form your onstage relationships based on your own with your daughter, Miranda?
Rachel Bay Jones: Well, part of this is the issue of the entertainment industry, unfortunately, mostly wanting to see middle-aged women as mothers, so I pick from the parts that come my way. But I do make a conscious choice to work on projects and roles that offer some hope or redemption or are just plain excellent. We all need strong, courageous role models now, and if I can be a part of providing that for people, I want it. As an artist, I do use my experience and lessons I’ve learned in life, and a huge part of that, of course, is as a mother to Miranda. But honestly, she’s pretty easy to parent. She’s amazing.
BWW Detroit: How old is Miranda now and has she started driver’s ed?
Rachel Bay Jones: She’s 15 and is aching to drive but hasn’t had driver’s ed yet. I think she has to wait until she’s 16 here in New York. I could wait for her to drive, however.
BWW Detroit: What can Detroit audiences look forward to about Something Beautiful,your one-woman cabaret show that you will be bringing to “The Cube” at the Max M. and Marjorie S. Fisher Music Center on September 22 for two shows?
Rachel Bay Jones: It’s a little bit about my crazy journey from being a child of crazy actor parents to winning a Tony Award in middle age, some good theatre stories and, mostly, some great-great songs. I perform with Randy Redd, my musical director, favorite male singer, and a long-time friend and collaborator.
BWW Detroit: Will this be the first time that you’re in Detroit?
Rachel Bay Jones: I love, love, love Detroit and always have. I’ve come through on National tours, with shows, to visit friends and family, and I am crazy about the people and the history and the culture.
BWW Detroit: Your fellow Dear Evan Hansen castmate and mom, Jennifer Laura Thompson, grew up in Birmingham, Michigan (#momsofevanhansen) and attended the University of Michigan (UM). And Dear Evan Hansen composers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul are also grads of the University of Michigan School of Musical Theatre and Dance (@umichsmtd). As part of Cabaret 313’s non-profit mission to foster theatre education to students, you’re going to be teaching a master class at UM. Did you know that Pasek & Paul are also coming to UM in a few weeks for a Q&A and booksigning? What was it like working with them?
Rachel Bay Jones: I love my boys so much. This is the second show I have done with them, the first being the pre-Broadway tour of A Christmas Story-which came to Detroit-and where I fell in love with their smarts and talent and humor and hearts. I haven’t seen the Dear Evan Hansen book yet, but I can’t wait to read.

Damayanti Sen is not Inspector Vijay. Unlike the muscled, trigger happy super cops who always triumph in the end of a satisfying Bollywood movie, the story of this IPS officer is not so rosy. Her mistake was to persist on the track of the culprits and crack a high profile gang rape case. Her reward is a transfer to a low profile position.
Damayanti has a Masters Degree in Economics. She entered the IPS in 1996, and in 2009, became the first woman ever to grace the post of Deputy Commissioner, Detective Department, Kolkata. She was Joint Commissioner in February 2012, when a woman was gang raped in Park Street, Kolkata. One of the suspects involved was related to a Congress leader.
The case got some negative publicity right at the beginning as the local police station did not cooperate with the victim, delaying the process of lodging as FIR. Next there was a confusion over identifying the criminals. It didn't help when Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee publicly claimed that the case was 'fabricated', 'cooked up'. Damayanti continued with the case despite all the roadblocks as she felt 'something must have happened that night'. The CM was not happy at this. Damayanti had to meet Mamata, and even told the press that the case was resolved through 'teamwork', and she was definitely not on an individual 'going against my organisation'. Finally the culprits were identified and most of them captured.
Reports of Damayanti's transfer started making the rounds. And on April 4, 2012, Mamata finalized her transfer. The victim felt it was 'unfortunate', and the controversy over Mamata's quote resurfaced.
Damayanti has got a promotion. From Joint Commissioner at the Detective Department, she is now Deputy Inspector General (DIG) … but at the Police Training School, Barackpore. Former Police Commissioner Sandhi Mukherjee is one of those who question this 'reward'. "Police officers can't be treated like football. Damayanti was a brave officer, she was a professional. What can this transfer mean?" Trinamool Congress MP and singer Kabir Suman said, "What has happened is unfair and is wrong. This transfer smacks of vengeance. It was revenge." He has even composed a song in her honor.
Faced with public outcry and criticism, the Chief Minister has defended her decision volubly. It was apparently 'the right of the state government' to 'get the job done by someone who is more effective.'
An Open Forum on Facebook 'Our Pride Damayanti Sen: The Bengal Tigress' http://www.facebook.com/groups/146525445467847/members/#!/groups/146525445467847/ already has 120 members protesting the transfer.
But Damayanti is neither Inspector Vijay nor Agent Vinod. She is a slightly built woman with a family and a very no-nonsense air about her. She worked on the case from an office in Lalbazar Police Head Quarters. There were no dramatic shoot-outs, detectives in disguise, or thrilling car chases.
How would Damayanti Sen's story end? Let us know what you feel.

The Tandy 1000 TL and TL/2 used 8 MHz Intel 80286 processors, whereas the TL/3 used a 10 MHz 80286. The TLs had 640 KB of memory preinstalled, with an option for an extra 128 KB for video frame buffering just as in the 1000 TX. Unlike the SL series machines, the TL machines came with the SmartWatch real-time clock logic built-in, which was powered by a removable 3-volt CR2032 button-cell battery on the motherboard.
The TL offered five 8-bit XT-compatible ISA slots, while the TL/2 and TL/3 offered four slots and an on-board 8-bit, XT IDE-compatible hard disk interface, which was not compatible with standard AT IDE hard drives. The TL series offered two upper 3.5" bays and one lower 5.25" bay. The TL/3 also offered a high-density floppy drive controller for 1.44 MB drives, though it shipped with a double-density 3.5" 720 KB drive.
As the processors on the TL-series are socketed, it is possible to install 386SX or Cyrix 486SLC-based processor upgrades, though the benefit of installing more advanced processors is limited beyond merely providing a speed increase due to the computers' XT-based architecture, and their resulting inability to access extended memory above 1 MB.

Development of a city-based WIFI that covers a TBD range. By providing citizens with Internet access, we can accomplish a few different goals focused around the ability to disseminate information. Much of the student population does not have internet access and this could have a significant impact in the ability of the city/county to reach citizens with information and resources not currently available. Having a city-based WIFI could also be an attractive amenity for someone looking to locate to Bay County/Panama City. It could be focused on areas of need or done through a whole-area approach. This could also be utilized as “internet hubs” in order to have emergency internet locations in case of an outage, like those experienced during hurricane Michael. Having locations with fiber connections, generators, and long-range access points would give a number of locations that would be ready in case of emergency.

(This October 31 story corrects name of asset management firm in paragraph 13)
By Karin Strohecker and Sujata Rao
LONDON (Reuters) – British investors increased their fixed-income holdings and cut back their stock exposure in October, although they took a shine to North American companies within their equity allocations.
Across global balanced portfolio strategies, exposure to bonds rose to 28.2 percent in October from 26.8 percent in September, reaching their highest level in a year, according to Reuters’ monthly asset allocation poll of 13 UK-based asset managers, conducted between Oct 15-30.
The gains came at the expense of equity allocations, which declined to 50.2 percent from 52.0 percent. Cash holdings slipped to 4.1 percent from 5.1 percent.
“We prefer credit over equities given where we are in this cycle; it is mature and we don’t see explosive upside from stocks,” said Thomas Becket at Psigma.
Within their equity holdings, UK fund managers raised their exposure to U.S. equities to 38.5 percent from 35.3 percent in September. That is in line with a wider trend among portfolio managers around the globe, who seem unfazed by the sell-off that ripped through equity markets in October.
“The buoyancy of the U.S. economy and the strength of company profits will eventually provide a floor,” said Andrew Milligan, head of global strategy Aberdeen Standard Investments.
Above-average cash levels already pointed to a high level of caution among investors and this – in combination with renewed share buy-backs – would help support the market, added Milligan.
Trevor Greetham, head of multi-asset at Royal London Asset Management, predicted the bull run for U.S. stocks was not over yet, despite some choppy waters ahead.
“Cross-currents in the world economy are causing volatility again this October, but we are buying the dip in the equity markets on the basis that we expect the economic expansion and bull market to continue into 2019,” Greetham said.
The increasing exposure to U.S. stocks has come at the expense of a number of emerging markets. UK fund managers reduced equity holdings across Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and emerging Europe, the poll showed.
Roiled by the crisis in Turkey and Argentina and by harsh pressure on many emerging-market currencies elsewhere, developing-market stocks .MSCIEF have tumbled some 27 percent since their peak in late January.
UK fund managers were more optimistic than those elsewhere that the British pound GBP= would be stronger on March 29, 2019, when Britain is no longer a member of the European Union. Only half as many respondents expect sterling to fall below 1.31 to the dollar as expect it to strengthen beyond that.
“The fourth quarter will be key for the Brexit negotiations and the future direction for sterling,” said Christopher Peel at Tavistock Investments. “The time for posturing is over and both sides appear to be showing a newfound willingness to compromise.”
However, many declined to make the call, given the uncertainties faced by markets.
“Even if the current UK government’s proposals are agreed by the EU-27 without further amendment, the political blowback is likely to be severe, with the very real possibility of the government falling, or at the very least seeing a leadership change,” said Michael Ingram at WHIreland.

Nuts and seeds such as sunflower, pumpkin, cashew, macadamia, almond, flax and sesame, are all rich and savoury ingredients that can be transformed into delicious dairy-free cheezes, pâtés and milks. These nutritious condiments gain improved texture, flavour and digestibility through fermentation.
There are many ways to add a fermentation culture such as sauerkraut juice, pickle brine, miso, whey (a by-product of yoghurt making, if you’re okay with eating dairy), or a magical substance called rejeuvelac.
Seed and nut cheezes are considered short-term ferments, meaning that they are ready to be eaten after sitting overnight or a couple of days. Like other fermented foods, they will ferment more quickly and get more tangy in hot temperatures and mature more slowly in cool temperatures.
What is Rejuvelac?
Rejuvelac is a non-alchoholic, fermented liquid made from sprouted grains. Rejuvelac is prepared using whole wheat, oats, rye, quinoa, barley, millet, buckwheat & rice (see this sprouting guide). Rejuvelac is cloudy, with the colour of pale straw. It has a flavour that is lemon-y, sharp and slightly tangy, with a mild, earthy aroma.
What does it do?
Rejuvelac helps improve the digestion of food. It can be consumed as a digestive aid or used as a starter culture for other fermented foods such as raw nut and seed yoghurts, cheezes, and sauces.
How to make Rejuvelac:
Choose 1 cup of grain (if gluten intolerant, choose an appropriate grain for you, i.e. quinoa, brown rice etc). Soak the grain fully in water for 8-12 hours. Drain the water then just add enough water to moisten the grains but not to cover them. Place the jar in a warm place out of direct sunlight for 1 – 3 days. Rinse your grains a couple times a day until you see sprouts (little tails emerging from your grains). Once the Grains have sprouted, cover the grains with 6 cups of filtered/dechlorinated water and let sit for 1-3 days until the water turns cloudy and white. Strain the liquid and use the grains for crackers, compost or other inventions.
How long will it last?: Rejuvelac can last up to 4 weeks sealed in the refrigerator.
Makes about 1 pound of ‘cheese’
2 cups of mixed raw cashews/almonds/brazil nuts and/or sunflower-seeds, soaked in water for 3-8 hours (too long and cashews change colour)
pinch of salt
¼ cup to ½ cup rejuvelac or other culture like sauerkraut juice or pickle brine.
*optional* add some cooked grains, a tablespoon of miso or a dallop of tahini
Blend the cashews, salt and enough rejuvelac to make it smooth and creamy but not runny
Let sit in a clean glass bowl or container, cover with a cloth or a plate, and let rest at room temperature for 8 – 36 hours. Transfer to fridge.
– the longer you wait, the tangier it becomes
– the warmer your room is, the faster it will culture
– cheese will thicken as it cultures
Keep cheese for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 4 months
FLAVOURED CHEESE IDEAS
basil & paprika
roasted red pepper, garlic and nutritional yeast
lemon zest, black pepper
cranberry and walnut chunks
toasted sesame, chopped dates and thyme

Housing minister needs to get to know the industry
Richard Beresford, chief executive of the National Federation of Builders, comments on Esther McVey's plans to send teams of planning specialists across the country.
The Times has written that the minister of state for housing and planning, Esther McVey, will unveil plans to send teams of planning specialists across the country to help councils struggling to get regeneration and housing schemes approved.
McVey said, “It doesn’t matter if it’s boosting capacity or plugging gaps in labour and expertise, if you have a problem, maybe you can hire, the planning A-team.”
Richard Beresford, chief executive of the National Federation of Builders (NFB), said: “A ‘planning A team’ supporting councils may be one way to support the underfunding of planning departments but a far more appropriate solution would be to reform the planning process so that builders can actually put shovels in the ground. Companies are going out of business because of systemic issues in planning and our members are telling us all the time how bad the situation is. This is no time for a quick fix.”
AT MIPIM UK, the housing minister also called on the UK to be a world leader in modular homes and said, “Technology now means building offsite gives you the precision-manufactured homes, tested for quality and safety.” She added: “This could now be as effective as a house built through traditional methods.”
The House Builders Association (HBA), the housebuilding division of the NFB, is concerned that the minister is ignoring the reality of high quality development and the skills crisis. Rico Wojtulewicz, head of housing and planning policy at the HBA, said: “Small and medium sized businesses train four in five construction apprentices and are our predominant rural employers. They also build the best homes by mixing traditional and MMC techniques.
“Like the A-team, the housing minister’s plans are far-fetched fiction. She must focus on MMC, as well as offsite and modular. Modular and offsite have lifespan, fire safety and maintenance concerns to resolve, whereas MMC allows the entire industry to be part of change. Her legacy needs to be fixing the housing crisis, not creating an economic disaster where 99% of the industry is left behind.”

I first discovered these beautiful engraved personalised glass gifts way back in 2008 and started to sell them in my shop along with my other personalised keepsakes. Back then I didn't actually make them, I was in awe of Catherine who did and how amazing they were, and my customers loved them too! Then in 2014 Catherine was selling her business and I agreed to take it over. After months of careful training I took over the reins in 2015 and spent the next year perfecting the art of engraving using a sand carving technique.
I no longer have a high street shop but work from a studio surrounded by fishing lakes and the beautiful countryside on the Hampshire/Berkshire border. With my small team we continue to create personalised glass gifts using hand-written words, signatures, children's drawings and poems. We use the best handmade glass and support UK makers where ever possible and as a bespoke business we pride ourselves on taking the time to get your gift just right.
There is something immensely special about creating a unique and special gift from scratch and it's something we love to do. So if you can't see exactly what you're looking for, please contact us to see how we can help!

Matt Collett is best known for his work with The Garage, the studio he co-owned in Savannah until recently. He’s also hopped around in tons of bands over the years, primarily as a drummer but on other instruments as well. He’s a veteran musician, but in all of the time he’s been working he’s never properly released anything under his own name.
“I’ve always been filling in for other people, producing, and doing all that stuff, but during that time I never really found a project that I felt fully represented what I wanted to do,” Collett tells Connect. “These songs on the album are all the ones that I played on acoustic when I’d get home from working on other people’s music.”
Some of the music on Flood, Collett’s solo debut, was written a decade ago. Some of it was written very recently. But it’s all music that Collett feels best represents where he is musically.
“I grew up here in Savannah, and I played in church first but at soon as I found the DIY heavy scene, I was stuck,” he says.
“That was where I found a home and a community that I loved. It really was the home base for everything, not necessarily just musically. As I got older, I started taking gigs that were fun and an opportunity to learn. I wound up getting exposed to a lot of music that I wouldn’t necessarily have listened to, but because I played it I learned to appreciate things that I wouldn’t have otherwise.”
Collett, who notably spent several years as guitarist and singer for the band Bear Fight, said it took a while to figure out what musical direction to take the project—especially in an age where music can be molded and diverted in almost any direction from a production standpoint.
“I had to learn to just let it be whatever it was, and be able to appreciate that and let it work,” he says of the process of writing and producing the songs.
With his musical taste being varied, ranging from Americana to heavier rock and punk, Collett says he was able to find an overarching thread that would ultimately pull the songs together.
“The music that I find myself listening to and wanting to play the most is music that has emotional content as well as an aesthetic or sound that’s representative of that. Epic, full, pretty, ambient but still heavy,” he says.
“When I write an acoustic song, I don’t often picture myself playing it in a quiet room. I picture myself playing it loud as shit at The Jinx, drunk on a Saturday night.”
“Flood,” the title track, is a song that Collett says is the most recently-written one on the album.
“There has been a lot of loss in the community over the last few years, and there’s a shared feeling of loss. And in this time, too, everything is uncertain. We’re in a situation now where we’re being forced to think about that,” he says.
“‘Flood’ is about being present and holding on to the people that you’ve got while you have them. There’s a friend of mine who was in every band I’d been in—we toured all over together. He had a 10-year battle with drugs, and was in and out of jail. He was an amazing person, and me saying that he passed away is a loss isn’t something I own. Everyone that knew him feels that. I wrote that song after he passed away.”
Collett is prepping the album—which was recorded at both The Garage and Low Watt Recording—at a time when people need music more than ever, and it’s appropriate for him as an artist who used these songs to help him get through his own struggles.
“These are the songs that I wrote to get through all the shit that has gone on in my life and the community,” he says. “If I can share them, that’s the goal.”

Unit I: Telling Stories: From the Analogue to the Digital
This unit introduces digital storytelling, beginning from its analogue roots, and quickly moving into digital modalities for storytelling and meaning-making. Concepts such as Aristotle's theory of narrative from Poetics, McLuhan's 'The Medium is the Message', and Deleuze and Guattari's Rhizomatic Narrative, It does this through case studies of maps as narrative and performance as narrative.
This unit was developed by Susan Schreibman and Marianne Ping Huang with the assistance of Esther Kamara and Stephanie Ochiel.
Unit II: Snowfall and Other Multimodal Narratives
This unit explores new forms of digital narrative in general, and longform journalism in particular, through the case study of an article entitled Snowfall: The Avalanche at Tunnel Creek published in The New York Times in December 2012. This unit focuses on a variety of narrative types and concepts, including multimodality, remediation, interaction, and how these features have changed and developed with advances in internet and mobile technologies. Snowfall provides the occasion to explore multimodality through such features as parallax scrolling and the idea of creating a cognitive container to keep the reader present in the story and the reading space.
This unit was developed by Susan Schreibman with the assistance of Stephanie Ochiel.
Unit III: Museums and Digital Storytelling
What is different with storytelling in museums? What opportunities does digital storytelling afford for museums? This is what we will explore in the unit Museums and storytelling. We start by exploring changing notions of museum narrative, audiences, and storytelling. We will ask ourselves ‘what is a museum for?’ and we will identify storytelling as one of the museum’s core functions. How have museums shifted terms of authority over time? How has the notion of museum audience evolved through the centuries? How has the shift in audiences lead to a shift in museum narrative? The second part of the unit is about spaces of engagement. We will ask ourselves ‘Where is the storytelling?’ in a traditional exhibition space? We will investigate various spaces of engagement and the place of digital storytelling in this context. The final part focuses on analysing how storytelling works in museum space (real and digital). Various analysis tools are presented to analyse storytelling in museums. Two hands-on exercises will help you apply these tools in different contexts. In the final assignment of this unit, you will put all your newly acquired knowledge and skills to create a storyboard or wireframing of a digital/audio narrative for an existing (online) exhibition.
This unit was developed by Emilie Sitzia with the assistance of Yannis Prosalentis and Stephanie Ochiel.
Unit IV: Phygital Heritage: Design, Interaction, and Evaluation
This unit presents how heritage information can be communicated to visitors in more engaging, educational and meaningful ways. The approach of “Phygital Heritage” is introduced, which entails how heritage information can be disclosed via simultaneous and integrated physical and digital means. The unit consists of three lessons; the first lesson introduces the approach of phygital with a detailed argumentation about why this approach is promising in the field of heritage communication, ended with a proposed model of phygital heritage. The second lesson presents four scenarios (i.e. in-the-wild studies), in which interactive phygital prototypes were designed and deployed in real-world heritage and museum environments to explore how the seamless integration of digital technology into physical reality facilitates the communication of built heritage. The third lesson focuses on the evaluation of phygital heritage, deploying a mixed-methods evaluation methodology in order to assess the communication of heritage information and user engagement, concluded by an evaluation framework of phygital heritage.
This unit was developed by Eslam Nofal.
Unit V: Audio Narratives
How can we use sound to tell stories for digital media? Audio nowadays is carried in a large variety of narrative formats, from radio dramas and podcasts, to audio guides, sound installations, sound walks and game soundtracks. This unit aims to acquaint you with the conceptual and practical tools to analyze and listen critically to these narratives, by attending specifically to the various affordances of location-based audio. In several hands-on exercises, you will help apply these tools to concrete examples. In the first of three lessons, we explore the notion of ‘audio narrative’, to consider how audio reinforces but also challenges some of the narrative strategies you have become acquainted with so far. The second lesson situates locative audio as part of a genre of locative media, and considers how sound is used to blend physical and digital spaces, integrating environment, location, mobility and the listeners’ own agency. In the final lesson, we explore the scholarly tradition of sound studies for a lineage of concepts that can aid us to critically examine how place-based audio narratives may reframe our awareness and understanding of our sonic environments

Chronic Fatigue is a Real Illness, CDC Says, but How Much Might Be Sugar Related?
Posted Dec 18 2008 8:12pm
Up until now, chronic fatigue has gotten a bad rap. Many doctors pooh-poohed its existence and thought it was all in people's heads.
But now the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) actually came out late last week and announced that it's a legit disease affecting more than one million Americans, Reuters and CNN.com tell us.
"CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) is a terrible illness that prevents many people from taking part in everyday activities and participating in the things they enjoy," CDC Director Dr. Julie Gerberding said.
"Fortunately, there are therapies for CFS that can reduce much of the pain and suffering," she said.
This is big news for the CDC to actually admit that chronic fatigue syndrome actually exists. Not only that, but the organization even cited its symptoms, which include:
Problems concentrating and remembering.
Flu-like symptoms, including pain in the joints and muscles, tender lymph nodes, sore throat and headaches
To help raise awareness for this illness, the CDC even launched an awareness campaign about chronic fatigue on Friday and even unveiled a special website.
Actually, before now, I've actually thought a bit about chronic fatigue. While I applaud the CDC for being open minded, I'm left wondering how much poor nutrition plays into this alleged disease.
You see, back in my heavy-duty, sugar-eating days, I was once diagnosed as having chronic fatigue. I was often exhausted and 7 or 8 hours of sleep just didn't seem to refresh me. I would literally drag myself around at times. On some days, I'd really be Connie, the Walking Zombie.
But then I oh-so reluctantly kicked sweets and quickie carbs on doctor's orders in 1998. One of my biggest motivations for quitting was that I hoped it might help my crippling exhaustion. Well, low and behold, after I got rid of the culprit carbs, ALL of my crushing, unrelenting fatigue disappeared.
So nowadays I'm left wondering: Did I ever really have chronic fatigue syndrome? Was I properly diagnosed? Or did I just have a case of sugar overload causing me to be a wiped-out wussie?

Warboys Local History Society Report of meeting 4th July. 2022 ”Armchair Walk of the Village”.
Joan Cole presented her ‘walk’ around the village with a powerpoint presentation with commentary. She began with the origins of the Warboys and how the manor was given to Ramsey Abbey in 924AD. The Church, originally Blessed Mary the Virgin, became Mary Magdalene was mentioned in the Domesday book. Around 1km south west of the church on the old airfield is an extinct volcano. Opposite the church is the Moat House (originally the rectory) with the garden designed by Joseph Paxton. The house is said to be haunted and the tale of Uncle Ned who bet he could stay in the haunted room was told. Uncle Ned did not last the night despite surrounding himself with rat traps to ward off the spirits. The manor house, next to the church was originally built around 1250 and upgraded by Sir John Leman from 1622. It was here that the infamous Witches of Warboys event took place with the trial in 1593. The cottage where the ‘witches’ lived has now been knocked down and the site is now the Ouse Motors garage. At one time there were some 30 pubs/beer houses in Warboys, but only two are left. Opposite the garage is the Pelican Inn where during WW2 the RAF personnel from the airfield enjoyed the beer. Adjacent to the Pelican is the Clock Tower built for Queen Victoria’s Jubilee at a cost of £230. Just down Ramsey Road was the Duke of Wellington Pub with landlord Frederick Hyde whose son was Horace, Joan’s inspiration for history. Next to the pub was Feekins Stores the only shop open on Sundays.. Just across the road was the cinema, now a small appliance warehouse. Down the High Street was the Red Lion pub where on feast week there was a whelk stall and a competition to see who could
eat the most. The last one eaten led to choking and the expelled whelk was gobbled up by a cockerel which promptly died. The whelk was retrieved and displayed in the pub. Next to the Red Lion was the fire station which attended fires, but those who needed the engine had to provide the horse to tow it to the fire. The great fire of 1835 began at Gifford’s farm adjacent to Popes Lane. It spread across the road setting the row of cottages in George Lane on fire and up to Ramsey road and the Pelican where it was stopped. There was great loss with up to, surprisingly, 70% covered by insurance. Many men helped with the fire and drank the whole of a recent brew of around 100 gallons beer to slake their thirst. The Fyson family were brewers and breeders of shire horses and were responsible for the VC Cockerel which was auctioned and reauctioned many times in many different places to raise over £14.000 for the Red Cross. The White Hart pub was a brewery and a sawmill and suffered a fire in 1996. The Methodist Church was originally a wooden one built in 1898. In 1938 it was replaced with one from Great Raveley moved brick by brick to the current site.
An interesting evening made enjoyable by the digressions of tales of local characters.
The next meeting 7.30 on 8th August – Tudor Fashion , six into one goes.

The EU will keep engaging with the UK through the WTO and the UN as both sides work out a deal on their future ties once Britain leaves the bloc, according to the top Brexit negotiator in Brussels.
Agreeing and ratifying a post-Brexit relationship by the end of 2020 "will be immensely challenging, but we will give it our all, even if we won't be able to achieve everything," the official, Michel Barnier, wrote in a weekend online commentary for the Project Syndicate magazine website.
The two sides will have just 11 months to settle that agreement following Britain's formal departure from the EU on January 31.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson insists he will not seek an extension beyond 2020 to fine-tune a deal.
He has also made it clear his country will drop EU labour, environmental, financial, health and safety standards, spurring Brussels' concerns about British trade "dumping" and making prospects of a quick and comprehensive deal appear remote.
Barnier, who was unfailingly courteous when he negotiated the terms of Britain's withdrawal in a way to protect the EU's single market and citizens, said he had three goals -- framed as "New Year's resolutions" -- for the upcoming talks on the future relationship.
To work together on global issues, "the EU will continue to engage positively with the UK, both bilaterally and in global fora such as the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, and the G20," he said.
In terms of security issues, while it is "simply not possible" for Britain to have the same access to data as EU members, "tackling terrorism, cyberattacks, and other attempts to undermine our democracies will require a joint effort".
Barnier said there should be "unconditional commitment from both sides" to building a security alliance.
And for economic ties, "any free-trade agreement must provide for a level playing field on standards, state aid, and tax matters," Barnier emphasised.
That last point is seen as being a big stumbling block in the talks.
Johnson told the British parliament last Friday that an "ambitious" trade agreement would be struck "with no alignment on EU rules, but instead with control of our own laws, and close and friendly relations".
EU officials and lawmakers have voiced concern that Johnson might be seeking to build Britain as a deregulated "Singapore-on-Thames" that would try to sell goods into the EU made cheaper by cutting rules meant to protect workers, consumers and the environment.
There is also wariness over whether Johnson wants to keep Britain positioned for easy trade with the EU, or reshape its laws to deal more with the United States.
Barnier suggested in his piece only a bare-bones trade deal was possible in the 11-month time frame "which, most likely, will have to be expanded in the years to come" to cover many areas left unaddressed.


Public toilets that are poorly located generate a sense of neglect, attracting vandalism, anti-social behaviour and social disorder. And lack of available and appropriate facilities at the right time encourages fouling, and treating diseases associated with open defecation such as typhoid, dysentery or cholera is a significant and costly task.
These issues, if not tackled effectively, can generate a cycle of decline, leading to more entrenched social problems, and seriously impairing quality of place and quality of life for local people.
Others have seen this reality before. HIGHWAY ACT 1980 Part VII Provision of Special Facilities for Highways states that “…112 Provision of picnic sites and public conveniences for users of trunk roads (1) The Minister may provide on land adjoining, or in the vicinity of, a trunk road that is not a special road a picnic site for motorists and others likely to use the road with space for parking vehicles and a means of access to and from a highway. An area of any such land as aforesaid in which there are, or are to be, provided such a picnic site, parking space and means of access as aforesaid is in this Act referred to as a “trunk road picnic area “.
“(2) The Minister may erect buildings and execute works on a trunk road picnic area for the purpose of providing all or any of the following:— (a) parking places for vehicles, (b) a means of access to or from the area from or to a highway, (c) public sanitary conveniences (including lavatories), and…”
“…(5) The Minister may provide public sanitary conveniences (including lavatories) in proper and convenient situations on or under land forming part of a trunk road that is not a special road, or adjoining, or in the vicinity of, such a road and may manage such conveniences…”

Iranian officials said Monday that 17 people have been captured who were allegedly spies working for the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, NBC News reported.
The Iranian Intelligence Ministry held a briefing on Monday where they announced the alleged spies were Iranian citizens but trained by the CIA.
Some of those arrested have been sentenced to death, the Intelligence Ministry said.
U.S. officials have not yet responded to the allegations. The Iranian government occasionally makes similar claims and it was not immediately possible to determine whether they are legitimate. The U.S. government never acknowledges CIA recruitment abroad.

US – Walmart has created a new and unique shopping experience based on recommendations from the CDC. Now Walmart is implementing one way shopping isles.
According to a press release from the company, they will”institute one-way movement through our aisles next week in a number of our stores, using floor markers and direction from associates. We expect this to help more customers avoid coming into close contact with others as they shop.”
Walmart also said they would put signage in their stores to show the one-way flow to make it easier on customers.
“We always want people to feel welcome at Walmart, and we know that in ordinary times a store is a gathering place for members of a community to connect and socialize. We look forward to the time when that is again the case; however, we now want to prioritize health and safety by encouraging customers to do their shopping at a distance from others, then head home.”

When President Donald Trump fired James Comey as director of the FBI on Tuesday, the move immediately sparked controversy. Some saw in the dismissal an attempt to hinder the FBI's investigation into possible ties between Russia and his presidential campaign. It didn't help that Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson hosted the Russian foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov, and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak in the Oval Office the very next day—or that the only photos of that meeting came from the Russian-sponsored news agency Tass.
The White House says it didn't realize the government photographer who accompanied Lavrov to the meeting was also a journalist; it had barred US media from the meeting. And while the incident provoked unfounded speculation that the visitor could have brought sensing and listening devices into the meeting, or even planted a bug in the Oval Office, it mostly underscores the consistently careless manner with which the Trump administration

I’ve had some great kale salads at local restaurants recently since it’s a super popular fall/winter menu item. One of my favorites is from Cook in Newton, so I tried to re-create it at home with a little of my own added flare … It was delicious! Here’s the recipe:
1 small shallot, chopped
¼ cup white wine vinegar
¼ cup red wine vinegar
¾ cup canola oil
1 large bunch of Tuscan kale
½ pound of Brussels sprouts
1 cup shredded parmesan
½ cup pine nuts
Spread pine nuts on a baking sheet and toast in the oven at 375 for 5-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
While the pine nuts toast, thoroughly wash the kale and pat it dry with a paper towel. Remove the stems and ribs from the kale, tear it into bite-sized pieces, and massage it with your hands for a minute.
Thinly slice the Brussels sprouts, removing any hard pieces of stem, and add to the bowl of kale.
Add 3/4 of the dressing to the greens, and mix in the cheese, pine nuts, and salt. Add additional dressing if needed.

Everyone eats different amounts at different times during the day. It all depends on our bodies and our schedules.
I like small meals with small snacks sprinkled in between, but my husband is the total opposite. He might not eat anything all day and then he’ll have a giant dinner. Maybe you’re a teacher on your feet all day and barely have time to eat until school gets out. Maybe you’re traveling for work and you are eating throughout the day as you meet with clients. Does the difference matter?
For a long time I was telling my husband that it wasn’t healthy to just do one big meal per day, and that he should really be eating small meals over the course of the day. But he has been living like this since college and is a fit, healthy man. So what gives?
I did my research regarding the “eat many small meals” theory because I started to wonder about the reasoning behind it. Turns out, it’s (mostly) crap.
If I was given a basket of food to eat for the day, it wouldn’t make much difference if I ate it all at once or spread it out over the day because I am consuming the same amount of calories and nutrients.
However, nutritionists still do suggest eating small meals over the day in place of 1-3 larger meals because irregular eating patterns and skipped meals can lead overeating or even binge eating.
If you’re interested, here are the studies I read that support this idea:
Some days we just lose it. We lose the energy to work for the things that we usually spend so much time fussing over. We forget why these things matter.
This is totally normal, so start by reminding yourself of that…Then let’s work to get out of it.
When you find yourself in a slump, here’s what to do:
1. Tell yourself (as Little Gram used to say) “this too shall pass.” Because it will.
2. Think about how you feel when you’re productive and focused. Getting back to work and into healthy habits helps us feel strong, confident, and energized.
3. The slump usually starts because our routines get thrown out of whack somehow (traveling, illness, etc.). Remind yourself that once you return to consistency, you will be happier and more productive in other areas of life.
4. Take a break. Sometimes we need to rest. It’s hard to make ourselves slow down, but it’s absolutely necessary once in awhile.
5. Enlist a friend. Most things are way more fun to do when you have a friend to do them with. It gives you a chance to relax and catch up while putting your stresses aside.
6. Do the same thing differently. If you can’t motivate yourself to do what you usually do, try to accomplish the same thing in a different way. Changing things up a little bit can make a big difference.

The Baystate Academy boys basketball team defeated Hampshire, 61-59, at home on Tuesday evening.
With the win, Baystate not only improved its record to 13-3 but was also crowned champions of the Bi-County East conference while the Red Raiders dropped to 7-11 on the season.
“Tonight was a good feeling,” Baystate Academy coach Dion Byrd said. “This is our first year in this league after claiming the last two Tri-County North titles."
Jason Rodriguez recorded a team-high 13 points, while Gabriel Candelera (11 points), Dion Byrd (10 points) and Tyreek Rankin (10 points) each scored in double figures as well. Rodrique Heartly, for his part, tallied eight.
When it comes to his team’s leaders, however, Byrd admitted that age is merely a number.
“Our two top scorers this season were sophomores,” he said. “We, as a team, operate differently than others. Besides that, though, I don’t want it to seem like we’re protecting anything -- age has no limit on this squad.”
In a losing effort, Justin Forest led all scorers with 21 points, while Dominik Lewinski and Jamil Rodriguez combined earned 11 and 10 points, respectively. Ian Dunlap, meanwhile, was close behind with eight.
“You have to give Hampshire credit," Byrd said. "They brought it to us and never gave up until the end.”
With only three regular-season games remaining before the postseason begins, Byrd remains determined.
“We have three more goals to go," he said. “So don’t expect us to start slowing down after tonight’s accomplishment.”
The Palmer boys basketball team edged out South Hadley, 52-48, on Tuesday evening.
The Panthers (11-7) have now won six of their last nine games, which includes a perfect 10-0 record at home.
“I think it’s awesome to finish undefeated at home,” Palmer coach Edward Aderson said. “This truly meant a lot to this club."
Despite missing most of his regular starters during the first quarter, the Panthers still maintained an early seven-point lead over the Tigers.
“Discipline was the difference-maker for us tonight,” Anderson said. “After a new set of players earned the opportunity to play in the opening quarter, I thought they executed well and gave us a good jump-start.”
Jack Latendre paced all scorers with 15 points, including multiple 3-pointers while Tyler Planico earned seven. Trevor Lampoton and Jake Boella, for their parts, combined for 10 points.
“Lampoton and Boella both came into tonight mentally focused, and also able to execute off the bench,” Anderson said. “Overall, though, our seniors gave us that steadiness that we ultimately needed as well.”
Just one night after posting his 1,000th career point, Hunter Carey led South Hadley (12-5) with a team-high 14 points while Dylan Cottingham was close behind with 13.
“South Hadley is a good team,” Anderson said." I believe they deserve some recognition because they brought everything.
“Ultimately, though, I couldn’t be more proud of my guys’ efforts tonight."
