Conductivity stopped flow

Product Codes: OPT-642 (for SF-61SX2 and DX2 systems)

Conductivity is suited to reactions that exhibit an ionic change and these may include metal ligand binding, micelle formation, proton exchange, ion exchange and reduction/oxidation reactions.

It comprises a conductivity mixing cell and accompanying conductivity meter. The mixing cell is installed on the sample handling unit with its associated electrode cables connecting it to the conductivity meter. This mixing cell is supplied in lieu of an optical cell for dedicated conductivity systems or an option for the user to change as required.

The conductivity mixing cell has a T-format mixer and features a cylindrical cavity in a PEEK block. The ends are closed by platinum electrodes. The cell volume is 21 ul, with a nominal cell constant 4.24 cm-1. The precision machined and finished cell housing acts as an effective EMI/RFI shield. The interface to the sample handling unit makes the reagent connections easy and also connects the thermostat circuit thus enabling temperature control, with a 5-60 °C range.

A conductivity meter provides the excitation signal and an output directly proportional to conductivity. This meter has six switched ranges allowing the user to measure conductivities from 5×10-6 S to 0.25 S.

The conductivity detection is supported within Kinetic Studio software enabling the user to report data in conductivity units. Kinetic Studio provides for data acquisition and analysis as well as full instrument control of the sample handling, operating in both single and double mixing modes.

Being a kid today comes with its fair share of stress. Whether it’s learning to handle a difficult classmate, sitting for standardized tests, trying out for a sports team, or going after a role in the school play, kids are frequently faced with stressful situations. Here's how you can help.

The best way to equip your child to handle stress is to start with the basics: Ensure that she gets enough sleep (9 to 11 hours for school-age kids); eats a healthy, well-balanced diet (a hearty breakfast of eggs and whole wheat toast, for example, provides needed energy on test or game day); and has time to just chill out and be a kid (riding a bike, coloring, or playing in the backyard are all good options). After all, it’s harder to face a challenge when you’re tired, hungry, or just plain worn out from being constantly on the go.

Even when kids are well-fed and rested, however, they can still feel stress when faced with an important tryout or a trying experience. Teach your child these tension-taming tricks, and he’ll be prepared to keep his cool in the classroom, on the field, or on stage. Have him practice them regularly at home so they feel natural when he needs to call on them.

Stay Cool Tool #1:

Relaxing breaths. A few deep breaths can calm both body and mind. Have your child close his eyes and slowly inhale for a count of five. She should hold the breath for a couple of seconds before exhaling for another count of five. For an extra positive boost, she can imagine “blowing out” her fears as she exhales and picture “letting in” fresh, positive air as she inhales.

Stay Cool Tool #2:

A happy place. Show your child how to trigger relaxation when he needs to collect his thoughts by focusing his mind on a pleasant place. This could be anywhere he feels at ease: the comfy chair in his bedroom, the lake where you vacation, or beneath a favorite leafy tree in the park or backyard. Encourage your child to close his eyes and engage his senses by thinking about the smells, sights, sounds, and touch sensations of the place he’s imagining.

Stay Cool Tool #3:

Muscle motion. With her eyes closed, have your child take a few slow, deep breaths. Then choose one body part to focus on—say, her toes. Have her tense that part of her body and hold for four to five seconds before releasing. Repeat the motion, tensing and releasing the legs (pushing them against the floor or ground), fingers/hands, arms, shoulders, and face.

Stay Cool Tool #4:

Positive thoughts. It’s common for negative thoughts such as I can’t do this to pop up during stressful times, so encourage your child to turn the tables on downers. For example, I’m probably going to miss this shot while preparing to make a free throw in basketball can become I’ve been practicing a lot and getting better. Likewise, I always bomb on science tests can be replaced by I’ve put in the time studying, and I’m prepared to do my best. Also, quietly repeating serene thoughts such as Just relax and breathe or I’m fine can push out the negativity and make room for calm.

Duels of the Planeswalkers 2014 came out somewhat suddenly this past week, and goosed by the promotional Scavenging Ooze I downloaded my copy immediately. Then I messed around with it for several hours, to get a sense of how Duels 2014 stacks up with its predecessors. The answer? It’s complicated! Shocking.

So, it might be useful to provide some background on the relationship I have with these games. When I was a wee lass my interest in Magic was cemented by a little game called Shandalar. It was silly, and overly complicated, but the RPG element was amusing for a computer gamer, the free build option let people like me (who had a child’s collection) play with Black Lotus and other ridiculous cards, and it even had a few special cards that flaunted the computer engine by making effects happen randomly. It was a lot of fun, and it sold me on the potential of Magic, but on a computing device.

Of course, having this experience lead me to try out the Xbox game (Battlegrounds) when it came out (there were a few of these games released between Shandalar and Battlegrounds, but they weren’t on my radar). And boy did Battlegrounds stink! It was so bad that I never managed to go particularly deep into it. You controlled a mage, on one side of a dodgeball court, and you moved your avatar around to swat at your opponent’s creatures when they crossed over to attack you. Plus there was some weird, non-land mana system? And you could cross over and swat your opponent, at some cost? It was a train wreck.

Clearly Wizards wasn’t hitting the sweet spot of simplification with these products, as much as I loved Shandalar. And MODO doesn’t really count, since while it is definitely played on a computer, it’s just a virtual Magic game, not a Magic-themed video game. Which is a fine distinction, I know, but it’s true! MODO is different.

But then they released Duels of the Planeswalkers, and it became clear that they had a sense of where they should end up. The original Duels excelled as a teaching tool, but it was also just fun to play independent of your level of play. When you didn’t have the time to crack open some packs, or find another real person, you could jump on the Xbox and play a few rounds of something that was basically Magic, but less broken and crunchy. And when Duels 2013 added in multiplayer content I was ecstatic. New hosts of people were being introduced to the joys of multiplayer politics and threat assessment, and it was pretty awesome.

Duels 2013 may have been the apex of this trend. This is not to say that D14 is bad, per se. The game still has many of the positive, interesting play options available to previous iterations, and the sealed deck builder is fascinating (more on that in a second). But it has problems both in its design and execution, and they’re worth pointing out.

The first (and biggest) issue is that the load times have gotten out of control. Maybe it’s because I am playing it on an iPad 2, and not the new hotness, but Dana’s been having the same problems on all of her Android devices and some of them are cutting edge. No matter what the cause, it’s a huge distraction, and for some reason waiting on the thing to start for 90 to 120 seconds makes the slow pace of the game all the more irritating when things start going. The solemn pace of the game has always been somewhat annoying, but this makes it worse.

Unlocking new decks is now more of a chore as well. You start with the archetypical green kitchen table deck. It’s got some decent bodies, nothing too special, and then you win with beats or overrun. Unfortunately, you have to finish the entire plane of Innistrad before you get your next deck, and it’s a white weenie build that doesn’t play out particularly differently than the green one.

Now, I get why they slowed down these things (well, all but the load lag). To make Duels more effective at teaching people how to play Magic, they’re hand-holding through a Campaign mode that grades people up in deck difficulty. That’s fine in theory, but in practice it just makes the game less fun. To keep you from unlocking decks immediately on the planes, you’re thrown against a bunch of goofy “theme” decks. In Innistrad these decks tend to just be boring, not particularly difficult. But one of the first decks in Zendikar (incidentally, the planes are organized in a totally weird way) is a land destruction deck that just spawns out copies of Spire Barrage and Roiling Terrain, and my god was it frustrating to play against.

Plus, as part of the oversimplification process, D14 still has some of the more irritating quirks of its predecessors. You still unlock cards through victories, and they still automatically put those cards into your deck, even when they’ve wasted a slot on Angel’s Mercy as some sort of perverse teaching incentive. It would have been fairly easy to add in a prompt when you unlock a card: “would you like to add this to your deck? Y/N?” And that’s the easy fix…the hard fix would involve rectifying whatever technical issue prevents easy entrance and exit from the Deck Manager. When you leave the Deck Manager you get booted out to the front screen, no matter what, instead of coming back to where you left. It seemed like less of an issue before, but with the D14 lag issues it makes you want to smash something. Something expensive. Like an iPad.

But, these criticisms aside (one last one: they cut or hid multiplayer), there are definitely some positives that balance out the lot. M14 doesn’t look amazing, but it seems like a solid format and offers some interesting cards to play around with. And the sealed deck mode is cool, although it follows the sealed league tradition of giving you more packs over time, which is slightly less relevant to real experiences. Stop trying to make leagues happen, Wizards! It’s a good thumbnail of the process, although the inability to lay things out like on MODO means that sometimes sorting through the mass of cards can be confusing, even with the relevant filters.

End of the day, though, I still recommend buying the silly game. It may be slow and a little too lowest-common-denominator, but for less than a price of a draft there’s enough there to spend at least a night at it, and probably more.

So…. Value!

Author’s Note: I couldn’t find a high quality image of [casthaven]Bile Blight[/casthaven] and wasn’t able to resist the opportunity to use this card art.

After my extensive preparation* for Born of the Gods prerelease, it’s only fitting that I get knocked out by a flu and spend the better part of last week sleeping or wishing I was asleep. Turns out a real life [casthaven]Bile Blight[/casthaven] is more than enough to keep me away from MTG for a week.

Knowing I’d be short on actual content, I immediately began drafting a list of bad puns. But because the editors probably wouldn’t take too kindly to three pages of Magic-themed poop jokes, I went and asked some friends how their prerelease went.

The response was an overwhelming “meh.”

A Whelming Wave of mediocrity, if you will.

Most people (ie. everyone except me) aren’t fans of the prerelease format. But I kind of like the idea of seeded packs. It gives new players a much-needed sense of direction, and probably helps to reduce incidences of “I got 0-2’d before the player sitting next to me played his second color.” (To be fair, it was M14 prerelease, I was playing mono black, and my opponent fielded three-color Slivers and had a four-digit DCI number.)

But I could see how promo cards can be limiting or boring. My friends and I came to the consensus that the only thing [casthaven]Eater of Hope[/casthaven] would be chewing on was your own bitterness and regret. And anyone that got [casthaven]Mindreaver[/casthaven] probably deserved an booster pack for compensation, or at least a cheap beer.

This is literally a guy with a feather cloak shouting at water. I don’t know what you expect from him.

[casthaven]Fall of the Hammer[/casthaven] and [casthaven]Scouring Sands[/casthaven] were lauded as “really good low rarity cards.” The former kills big things and allows for cute double-Heroic triggers. And I’m all for cheeky interactions, especially when they make me feel like a better player than I actually am. Scouring Sands is apparently a small blowout against UB Heroic decks. I suppose it’s hard to amass counters when half of your adorable 1-drops just keel over and die to quickly moving sand.

Pictured: Pompeii, Mount St. Helens, and Beijing air pollution.

The main aftershocks of Born of the Gods’ drop? A lot more Limited removal. As Steven “Turn Three Ashiok” Shen notes, “it’s a lot more dangerous to go all-in with a voltron strategy when cards like [casthaven]Asphyxiate[/casthaven], [casthaven]Excoriate[/casthaven], and [casthaven]Bile Blight[/casthaven] are available at common/uncommon.” Tempo play is still relevant, although I’d rather bounce that [casthaven]Nessian Asp[/casthaven] into my opponent’s graveyard than his hand. Instead of bashing your opponent’s face repeatedly, your precious [casthaven]Nemesis of Mortals[/casthaven] will probably just swing once and immediately die to removal, making Limited a far more accurate reflection of MTG as a whole.

As I (hopefully) settle back into a routine of Sunday night drafts, I figure now would also be a good time to move into standard. A few months ago, I tried to pull together the strands of a UR Blitz deck, but that plan fizzled when I discovered that my Paypal account contained the healthy balance of $1.55. And small packages kept getting lost in the catacombs of my university’s mail system. But I really like Shawn’s Orzhov Aggro list, and I’ll probably build it slowly over the next few weeks. Minus the shocklands and [casthaven]Mutavault[/casthaven]s, of course. We’re trying to build a deck here, not go bankrupt. And I’ve already spent $30 on flu medication this week.

*I separated my pocket change into pennies (+1/0 counters) and dimes (0/+1). I understand that you can also use gum wrappers as bird tokens.

Introducing the Hiro Platform

After the launch of the Stacks 2.0 blockchain in January, we’ve seen tremendous interest from developers in building smart contracts for Bitcoin. Hiro is now more narrowly focused on developers. Anyone can use the open-source Stacks software to use and develop smart contracts. With the hosted Hiro Platform we want to make it easier for startups and enterprises to build on the Stacks and Bitcoin blockchains. Hiro has always been an open-source company and we will continue our commitment to open source.

Earlier, at Hiro PBC (formerly known as Blockstack PBC), our focus was on building the public infrastructure for decentralized apps and smart contracts, specifically around Bitcoin. During this phase, we did the early research and development of the Stacks 2.0 blockchain. With the launch of the Stacks 2.0 blockchain by independent miners, Hiro PBC no longer plays an essential managerial role for the Stacks blockchain. We’re excited to have a narrowed focus on developer tools. Stacks 2.0 went live in January 2021 and after 2 months there is $800M+ total value locked in the PoX smart contract, with several other smart contracts being developed in the ecosystem.

Blockchains enable new types of computer programs: (a) smart contracts that can be published on a blockchain to execute in a trustless manner, and (b) decentralized apps that are user-owned and avoid centralized servers. Ethereum demonstrated the power of decentralized apps and smart contracts, and Stacks brings these capabilities to Bitcoin. At Hiro, our thesis is that in the long term, the broader Bitcoin ecosystem can emerge as the center of gravity for crypto. Enabling apps and smart contracts directly on top of Bitcoin can unlock this potential.

Hiro Platform is planned to be a hosted service that will make it easy for developers to build on the Stacks blockchain. Areas of focus include testing and deploying smart contracts, spinning up nodes and other server-side resources for scaling, and monitoring and analytics. Hiro Platform will provide the convenience and reliability that developers have come to expect from cloud-hosted platforms and APIs like Stripe for payments and Twilio for telecommunication infrastructure, while the underlying network remains decentralized and open.

Hiro Platform is planned to be a hosted service on top of decentralized blockchains. The Hiro Platform can only exist on top of public blockchains like Bitcoin and Stacks that provide the core consensus and decentralized smart contracts functionality; it couldn’t exist until the successful launch of Stacks 2.0. Our work on developer tools and hosted services for Stacks helps move the industry in the direction of a user-owned internet built on Bitcoin.

The Hiro team has been engaging with developers and identifying areas for improvement. We’re gathering insights from app and smart contract creators, our internal development team, and integration partners. We plan to share more details on upcoming focus areas, but in the near term we are working on improvements to Stacks.js, Microblocks, Clarity lang, the Stacks Wallet for Web, and improving developer documentation and the developer onboarding experience.

Hiro remains a public-benefit corporation building open-source software. We have strides to make in improving the Stacks developer experience, and are thrilled to work on the Hiro Platform to serve a vibrant and growing group of app founders and developers in the Stacks ecosystem. We’re publishing this post to get early community feedback. We want to hear from developers who’re building apps & smart contracts for Bitcoin and help make their lives easier. Please share your comments on the Forum.

Start building on Stacks
Create apps and smart contracts that inherit all of Bitcoin’s powers, or join thousands of other builders on the Stacks Discord
Today we’re sharing high-level plans for a new hosted service, the Hiro Platform, to serve developers building the user-owned internet on Bitcoin.

Welcome to Ca'Sagredo Hotel (Centre)

Ca'Sagredo Hotel (Centre) Majestically overlooking the grand canal and dating back to the 15th century, the palazzo of the 5* ca' sagredo hotel has been declared a national monument. Amazingly, even after five centuries, it preserves the untouched beauty of an ancient noble residence with ballrooms and spacious corridors displaying important paintings, frescoes and stuccoes by the most representative venetian painters of the 17th and 18th centuries. Guests are sure to find a haven of comfort in any one of the hotel's 42 magnificently-appointed rooms and suites with stunning views over either the grand canal, ca' d'oro, campo santa sofia or the historical rialto market. As a member of ¿small luxury hotels of the world¿, the 5* ca' sagredo typifies the perfect venetian hotel-palazzo where exceptional decoration, style and quality are effortlessly combined with contemporary luxury. The hotel is a true gem, skillfully and faithfully renovated to enhance its original noble features; the restoration lasted more than seven years and was supported by the fine arts of venice, bringing the palace back to his ancient splendour. No other hotel combines elegance, history and hospitality with the same passion where each room is quite unique and decorated differently in a style of subtle yet highly refined elegance. Any guest choosing this remarkable property is sure to feel like an 18th century venetian noble ¿ a rare example of time having stood still.

Elizabeth Taylor

Film Review: A Star is Re-Examined in ‘Making Montgomery Clift’

Making Montgomery Clift

CHICAGO – Montgomery “Monty” Clift was an enigma as a “movie star” from the minute his image reflected from the silver screen. Dark and intense, he exhibited a inner ferocity that was unmatched from any other actor of his era, including Marlon Brando. Because of the enigma, his persona has often been mischaracterized, and he died young in his mid-forties. His nephew Robert Anderson Clift seeks to revitalize the authentic Monty in the new documentary “Making Montgomery Clift.”

Interviews: Back to ‘Twin Peaks’ with Sheryl Lee, Sherilyn Fenn?

CHICAGO – The hot rumor this week in the TV industry is that “Twin Peaks” show creators David Lynch and Mark Frost were talking up a revival of that unforgettable cult TV show of the early 1990s. Will Sheryl Lee (Laura Palmer) and Sherilyn Fenn (Audrey Horne) possibly participate?

US Election Countdown: T-minus two days – What if I’m totally wrong?

Macro 7 minutes to read
John Hardy

Head of FX Strategy

Summary:  In my series of US Election Countdown posts, I have generally maintained a strong bias that the Democrats will eke out a solid or better Blue Wave result in this election. But what if my take is totally wrong? It is always a good idea to be prepared for any outcome, and today I look at the factors that should give the Blue Wave believers cause for at least some pause.

This is the latest in a daily series of articles I am running through Election Day on Tuesday and for as many days after that day that are necessary until a result is clear. Today, I reveal that I maintain a considerable background level of discomfort with my high probability forecast for a strong Democratic showing in this election and discuss again what happens in a “contested election” scenario.

Pollster dogfight – are the pollsters getting it wrong again?
Readers of my recent Election Countdown posts will know that I have often base some of my conviction in the current state of the race on Nate Silver’s poll of poll measures. I have down into specific large scale individual polls as well for some of my views. In this day and age of the politicization of everything, however, charges are flying from all directions that the polls themselves are poor measures of the reality on the ground and that polling outfits reporting results are themselves politically charged. To take an example, an engrossing dogfight has broken out between 538’s Nate Silver and Robert Cahaly, the leader of the Trafalgar Group polling outfit, the “only one that got it right” in its polls of the Midwest states that sent Trump over the top in 2016. Trafalgar even predicted the exact outcome of the 2016 election electoral college margin. This time, Trafalgar is again predicting a Trump victory and a real mudslinging has developed between 538’s Silver and Cahaly (must see clip, especially the nuances on the Michigan race.

I think the 538 outfit actually did a credible job in 2016 with the polling information it had on hand and actually called for more uncertainty than most other mainstream observers did. Still, I do think 538 is often a bit dry and polls-only focused, and is sometimes uninspiring in its coverage of the intangibles, or “narrative” that I discuss below, even if they are masters of pulling out interesting twists in the polls and at differentiating poll quality. They are also honest in expressing degree of uncertainty.

Credible voices indicating this is still a tight race
But the chief source of my discomfort with my own call for a Blue Wave is in the “narrative game” of this election. This game is driven by clever observers out there who look at the stories that are motivating people to get out and vote rather than bothering with any polls. These were the people that got 2016 right.  The 2016 election was a story driving new populist energy for Trump among traditional non-voters that the polls weren’t capturing. This story meant Clinton lost Wisconsin in 2016 despite virtually all polls there showing here with a commanding lead.

One of the most credible voices on the narrative front is from filmmaker Michael Moore – a Michigan native, it must be highlighted – who’s electrifying and prescient speech a week before the 2016 election outlined the narrative that gave Trump the victory. There is no doubt that this narrative still exists in the minds of many Trump supporters, but have four years of Trump broadened the appeal of this narrative, especially for the “oh, what the heck” voters at the margin in 2016? Regardless, Moore suggests that the polls are again very misleading this time around and that the race is very tight.

Another voice is Ben Hunt, of the remarkable, a site completely dedicated to framing everything, markets included, as part of a “narrative game”. In a piece last week, “Oh No, Here it Comes Again,  That Funny Feeling”, Ben Hunt outlines a shift he has sensed in the narrative game in favour of Trump, based on Trump’s understanding of social media and the visuals of raucous Trump rally enthusiasm compared to the loud emptiness of a Biden “campaign rally” in Georgia, with Covid distancing circles painted on the grass and virtually no audience. His narrative is the power of the “crowd watching the crowd”. Back in late September 2016, he said that Clinton was in deep trouble for relying on a “virtue signaling” narrative – it is one of his most remarkable pieces.

What happens if it is a tight race and a contested election?
So the important question is what to do if we don’t get that strong Blue Wave outcome on Tuesday I still expect, based on white educated women breaking away from Trump and young voter turnout. I have already outlined the contested election scenario and the possible market reaction to it in my post last week on the full spectrum of election outcome scenarios. But it is worth fleshing out the contested election scenario once again, especially as the market consensus is fairly strong that we are looking at solid odds of at least a modestly strong Blue Wave in which the presidency and the US Senate fall to the Democrats.

Market won’t like a tight margin at all – it means a contested election
The worst risk for the market in the near term – stretching from the middle of Election Night and possibly to inauguration day and even beyond – is a very tight election. If that is the result after Tuesday, neither side will back down, with Trump declaring fraud and vote stuffing if he loses by a narrow margin, and Biden’s team charging the Republicans with voter repression. The Democrats have the high moral ground on that front, but safe to say it will be ugly no matter what if the vote is tight. On top of that, the Murphy’s Law outcome here would be if the margin of uncertainty in the election is the outcome in Pennsylvania. If that’s the case, shield your eyes, because that state is a perfect storm of legal challenges and unique issues on counting the vote for this cycle.

If Trump wins in a way similar to 2016, and with a similar or even worse minority of the popular vote (he lost it by nearly 3 million in 2016), I would expect an immediate constitutional crisis and whatever passes for a civil war in 21st century USA, something we already have to some degree to start with in the narrative game. A narrow Biden win would likely mean he has a strong national popular vote mandate, but Trump will still pull out all of the stops on charges of voter fraud, etc. Even if Trump backs down, a blocking Republican majority in the Senate will make for an ugly spectacle for social unrest in the US (especially after the Republican rushed through their Supreme Court appointment) until at least the 2022 mid-term elections.

Safe to say that a contested election would be orders of magnitude worse than the one in 2000, when the Supreme Court had to make a decision about the razor-thin Florida vote after multiple recounts in an election with low general turnout and seemingly little at stake. Back then, it was about hopelessly outdated voting machinery in Florida and physical voting ballots and whether the “chads” indicating voter preference were sufficiently punched on the ballots. In 2020, many voters see this election as existential. If this goes to the over-politicized 6-3 conservative majority Supreme Court, Democrats will not accept the verdict against their side. What does “not accept” look like? I don’t know, but it is unprecedented territory for the US since 1865.

Market reaction to any contested election scenario developing on Election Night could prove brutal, with equities sharply lower, treasuries spiking higher and in FX, JPY crosses likely the most volatile (USDJPY probably sharply lower, but brutal market uncertainty usually means the liquidity of the US dollar keeps it in the safe haven column).  Given my belief that a Trump win could immediately break the nation, I would be very cautious if the market begins celebrating early results that show a clear tilt in Trump’s favour.

And by the way, any strong Blue Wave outcome won’t put any of the nation’s issues to rest. The MAGA army or whatever it transmutes into after a Trump loss will not go gentle into that good night. Be careful out there.

Clear Lake Cottage by MacLennan Jaunkalns Miller Architects

By • Jul 4, 2013 •  Selected Work

Clear Lake Cottage, located in Ontario, Canada, was designed by MacLennan Jaunkalns Miller Architects.

Surrounded by lush forests, the interior of the home mixes the height of sophistication in its design with the rustic feel of raw wood for its materials.

Clear Lake Cottage by MacLennan Jaunkalns Miller Architects:

“A Toronto family of five requested a cottage that is ‘modern and open’ but retains a quintessential ‘cottage feel’. The building was to be commodious and accommodate extended family but should avoid ostentation in scale and modernity.

The Clear Lake Cottage proposes a simple tent-like envelope to house both program and outdoor spaces under a single vernacular form. A singular roof presents a child-like impression of house; rectilinear and ordered in symmetry while playfully skewed in volume. Nestled within a forest, the building is sculpted and stepped to take advantage of the land; modeling the natural grade. Open and closed faces respond to shoreline views or quiet wooded depths. Like a tent the porosity of the building’s envelope strengthens the experience of ‘cottage’.

Three volumes: a communal space, a bedroom bar, and a master suite are registered in response to the site to achieve views, separation, and privacy. The roof peak creates a sleeping loft, and enhances the communal space. The plan aligns a series of large sliding windows for summer cross ventilation. The tent-like ‘big top’ of the Douglas Fir interior has three exterior spaces carved into it to create sheltered outdoor areas. The relationship to site, the transition spaces, and operable transparent skin connects to this privileged landscape.”

Homegrown Chef Edward Villarreal's

Savory Veggie Crepes

with Side Salad Recipe

Note: Order this Homegrown Chef Box through SA Produce Box at SA Produce Box

1/2 head hydroponic bib lettuce

1 heirloom tomato, cut in wedges

1/2 pack brown beech mushrooms

1/2  tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon basil olive oil (sub with regular olive oil)

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large eggs

1 cup water

1 cup milk

2 cup flour

1 teaspoon koscher salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

4 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 tablespoon chopped herbs

6 tablespoons melted butter

1 tablespoon chopped parsley

1 tablespoon chopped chives

1 tablespoon chopped oregano

1 tablespoon chopped thyme

Set aside in bowl

Leaves of 10 Brussels sprouts

2 tablespoons butter

1/4 cup chopped cauliflower florets

1/4 cup chopped shiitake mushroom

1/4 cup chopped oyster mushrooms

1 teaspoon chopped shallots

1 teaspoon chopped garlic

1 tablespoon chopped herbs (see above)

1/4 cup white wine

3 glasses white wine (for you!!)

Finish with sprigs of fresh dill

In a blender, combine all of the ingredients and pulse for 10 seconds. After batter is smooth, pour into bowl and stir in herbs. Place the crepe batter in the refrigerator for 1 hour. This allows the bubbles to subside so the crepes will be less likely to tear during cooking.

Heat a small non-stick pan. Add butter to coat. Pour 2 ounces of batter into the center of the pan and swirl to spread evenly. Cook for 30 seconds and flip. Cook for another 10 seconds and remove to the cutting board. Lay them out flat so they can cool. Continue until all batter is gone.

After they have cooled you can stack them and store in sealable plastic bags in the refrigerator for several days or in the freezer for up to two months. When using frozen crepes, thaw on a rack before gently peeling apart.

For filling, start with 2 tablespoons butter in hot pan. Once butter has melted, add all ingredients to pan except for herbs. After mushrooms have cooked for about 5 minutes, add 1/4 cup of wine. Allow to reduce. After wine has reduced, turn heat off and sprinkle with the herbs and stir gently. Use 2/3 of the filling in the crepes.

Warm remaining mixture once again. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream. Allow to reduce. Viola sauce!

Finally, sprinkle shredded manchego cheese over top of filled and folded crepes. Serve with side salad and enjoy!

Disney World updates for the Horizon West community and how to navigate at the Parks

From March to July, Horizon West residents who had grown accustomed to seeing nightly Walt Disney World fireworks in the sky wondered when their nearest and dearest attractions would open back up. While the sky still remains dark at night, those who live in the Horizon West area are grateful to have a place to stretch their legs while also staying socially distant and safe.

Although Disney is known for it’s whimsy and fun, there is nothing lackadaisical about their safety and cleaning procedures. Temperature checks are required at the main gate before you enter the park. If you do not meet the required temperature range, you will be asked to step into a shaded tent before they take your temperature again to ensure an accurate read. Masks are required everywhere in the park, in accordance with Orange County’s mask mandate.

Disney has also updated their mask requirements to ensure that they consist of two layers of breathable fabric and must be secured with ties or loops to the ear, according to the official Disney Parks website. To further the safety, Disney included a clause to the mask policy stating that the only exception will be for guests sitting or standing stationary while eating. This allows guests to pick a spot and relax while they enjoy the many culinary treats Disney has to offer, including the Food and Wine Festival in Epcot. The Food and Wine Festival offers some of the same classic favorites including Brazilian Pão de Quejo, Canadian Cheese Soup, and Polish Pierogi. The best place to check up on new procedures is the “Know Before You Go Webpage at Disney.go.com.

When you’re done picking up for your favorite snacks and start to meander toward the rides, you can rest at ease knowing they will be clean and ready for you. Every two hours starting at park open, Cast Members will shut down the ride to ensure each ride vehicle is thoroughly cleaned. Custodial has also increased cleaning frequency and thoroughness and handwashing stations have been added throughout the parks and Disney Springs. Social distancing markers have been spread through the queues of the rides to encourage guests to keep at least six feet apart.

To create some extra magic for both cast members and guests, Disney has announced they are issuing new face masks for cast members with a little extra pizzaz and flair. Not only will these face masks have adjustable ear loops and a more comfortable fit around the nose, but they also have a fun new galaxy design with some hidden Mickeys. Not only are face masks required for cast members and guests, but face shields are also being worn by cast members who are required to have close contact with guests. Disney has also begun selling masks themed to your favorite Disney characters.

Speaking of merchandise, Passholders will be give not only a 30% discount at ShopDisney.com, but also a 30% discount at all Walt Disney World resort owned merchandise locations on property. This includes most of the shops in the parks and in Disney Springs. This is especially good news to Central Florida’s many Annual Passholders, especially with the introduction of new Halloween 2020 merchandise. These spooky new offerings include a Halloween Spirit Jersey, new Minnie Mouse Witch ears, and a new Disney Villians collection which will be coming soon to ShopDisney.com.

This new Halloween collection may be to make up for the fact that Disney has decided to forgo the Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party Festivities. This is ensure the park will not reach new capacity cap that was set by Disney in order to reduce large crowds. In another effort to protect both cast members and guests, Disney has also announced reduced park hours starting September 8th. Epcot will now be open from 11 AM to 7 PM; Magic Kingdom will be open 9 AM to 6 PM; Animal Kingdom’s hours will now be 10 AM to 7 PM and Hollywood Studios will be from 10 AM to 7 PM.

Despite all the changes going on within Disney World, the parks remain a place of comfort for Central Florida. While in Horizon West, it’s not uncommon to see dozens of Annual Passholder or Disney Vacation Club Member stickers. Residents of Horizon West communities close to Disney, like Lakeview Pointe often congregate on the sidewalks outside their homes to watch the nightly fireworks. Although fireworks have not been re-introduced to the parks quite yet, the Walt Disney World resort remains a safe and steadfast location to unwind during the a time of great stress and unsurety.

Mike Spicer local Realtor, lives, works and enjoys Horizon West daily. If you ever have questions about the neighborhoods or homes in the area feel free to reach out to Mike directly he would love to help. This blog written by, the Michael Spicer, P.A. Team.

Thousands donated to mental health support in Matthew Wright’s memory

  • Over £2,000 has been donated to the service set up to support riders’ mental health by eventer Matthew Wright, since his death on Monday (15 February).

    Riders Minds, which was set up to support the mental health and wellbeing of the equestrian community, will use the funds to support any rider who needs it.

    Matthew, who had always spoken openly about his mental health issues, created Riders Minds with his wife Victoria. The aim was to provide information, help and understanding, and to raise awareness of and promote conversations about mental wellbeing.

    To donate or access support, visit the Riders Minds website.

    Founding director Lucy Katan told H&H Riders Minds was Matthew’s vision.

    “I was overwhelmed by his and Victoria’s passion to help other people,” she said, adding that the money raised will go towards improving the service and developing the helpline, which is available for all riders to call, 24 hours a day.

    “The idea was to create a safe place for all equestrians to come to if they need some mental wellbeing support. Matt was adamant that the phone line had to be available 24 hours a day, and he always said that if it helped just one person, it would be worth it.”

    Continues below…

    Lucy said: “Riders Minds was created by Matt to help everyone who rides and loves horses and I hope as a sector, we will make sure everyone knows it’s there.

    “Matt — I promise that we will make Riders Minds just one of your many legacies; it will achieve your ambitions of helping others to battle mental health issues, and you will always be in our thoughts.”

Horticulture-industry relevant election 'asks' roll in

With the general election on 12 December, groups such as the NFU are issuing policy 'asks' including demands for access to overseas workers, more tree planting, parks protection, business rates reduction and protection of staff rights.

The NFU General Election manifesto outlines its net zero agriculture by 2040 target and plan for producing more food in the UK "for every budget".

The manifesto covers Brexit, future domestic agricultural policy, "building a thriving countryside", securing a long-term food strategy and "placing science at the heart of decision making". It also highlights three areas that require immediate attention from a future government:

  • A commitment that future trade policy will not allow the imports of food produced to standards that would be illegal to produce in the UK, undermining British farm businesses.
  • A long-term investment programme to support British farming.
  • Guaranteed access to a skilled and competent workforce.

NFU President Minette Batters said: “The outcome of this General Election will determine the future direction of this country and our farming system, including how we trade with the world, how we invest in our food system and how we attract a workforce.

She added: “With the right political environment we believe that we can deliver even more. From our ambitious vision for net zero agriculture by 2040 to increasing our self-sufficiency by producing more high-quality, British food at home, British farmers are up for the challenge.

“However, there are still very real threats that we face as an industry. If we crash out of the EU without a deal or introduce a trade policy that allows imports of food produced to standards that would be illegal to produce here, delivering on our ambitions suddenly becomes very challenging. That is why we are urging all political parties to commit to protecting our standards of production in future trade policy as one of our headline asks in this manifesto.

“Ahead of the General Election, I will be speaking to candidates from all parties and reiterating to them the strategic importance of British food and farming to the nation, contributing £122 billion to the economy and delivering almost 4 million jobs. It is absolutely crucial that the issues we raise in this manifesto are addressed by the future government, to ensure our sector has a sustainable and ambitious future.”

The Conservative Government has said it will quadruple the number of migrant workers taking seasonal jobs on British farms next year via its Seasonal Agricultural Workers pilot. It means fruit and vegetable growers to hire up to 10,000 workers from outside of the EU for temporary roles in 2020, up from 2,500 in 2019.

The move is a qualified victory for the NFU, which has been lobbying for the increase to address chronic shortages in the horticulture sector. But the NFU election manifesto, published on 12 November, the union calls for "an immediate expansion of the Seasonal Workers Pilot scheme to enable recruitment this winter and rapid action to reach a full scheme of 70,000 seasonal workers as soon as practically possible".

Forestry trade body Confor has urged political parties to commit to ambitious tree planting targets in their general election manifestos "to show they are serious about tackling the climate emergency".

Chief executive Stuart Goodall has written to the parties, asking them to commit to planting 30,000 hectares of new woodland annually by 2025 across the UK - about 60 million trees planted every year.

The figures are part of "ambitious, but achievable" targets set by Confor in its Woodland Carbon Targets policy paper earlier this year -  and recognise that tree planting at scale is a "simple, low-cost option" to reduce the damaging impacts of climate change.

The paper sets stepped UK-wide targets rising from 15,000 hectares in 2020 to 30,000 in 2025 - and rising to 40,000 hectares in 2030.

This is broken down into specific targets for the four constituent parts of the UK - with the 2025 target including 15,000 hectares in Scotland, 7500 in England, 6000 in Wales and 1500 in Northern Ireland.

Fields in Trust has issued a manifesto calling on election candidates to sign a six-point Parks Protector Pledge, promising to champion local parks and public spaces.

The charity said with public sector cuts leading to pressure on parks and green spaces, candidates are being asked to endorse the legal protection of green spaces and help prevent them being sold or developed.

Fields in Trust’s Green Space Index shows that, although Britain has 216,160 hectares of publicly accessible local parks and green spaces, less than 6% of this space is legally protected with Fields in Trust.

Fields in Trust chief executive Helen Griffiths said: “There is overwhelming evidence that parks and green spaces contribute health and wellbeing benefits to our communities. We are calling on election candidates to advocate for policies which protect and support parks and endorse local efforts to help maintain and improve the green spaces in their constituencies.

“There is an urgent need to ensure the current level of park and green space provision is maintained and review what more can be done to legally protect vulnerable spaces for future generations to enjoy, because once lost, they are lost forever.”

Fields in Trust’s research demonstrates clear health and wellbeing advantages, including a saving of £111 million each year to the NHS from regular use of parks and green spaces. Constituents are being encouraged to quiz candidates on their approach to parks and green spaces and encourage them to sign the pledge at www.fieldsintrust.org/pledge

The British Retail Consortium's manifesto for the coming election, ‘A Vision for the UK Retail Industry’, sets out how the next Government should support the industry "as it navigates a transformation driven by new technology and changing consumer behaviour".

Priorities outlined in the manifesto are:

  • Relieve the business rates burden by scrapping ‘downwards transition’, which takes £1.3 billion from retailers every five years. Money that should be invested in growth, skills and innovation.
  • Reform the Apprenticeship Levy to allow greater flexibility to spend on any form of accredited training.
  • Protect shopworkers by bringing forward legislation to safeguard the 115 retail workers who are attacked every day.

Ahead of the election, the Labour Party has pledged to close the gender pay gap difference in hourly earnings between men and women by 2030.

The difference between men's and women's average pay would take another 60 years to close under a Conservative government, the party said.  The Conservative Party said the pay gap was at a record low and that there had been "huge progress since 2010" in terms of the number of women in work.

The Fawcett Society said it would take until almost 2080 for the gender pay gap to close at the current rate. The Trades Union Congress puts that at about 35 years.

As well as the new 2030 pay gap target, Labour manifesto commitments include introducing a "real living wage" of £10 per hour and creating a Worker's Protection Agency with HMRC with powers to fine organisations that fail to report gender pay.

Labour said the new agency would certify firms with more than 250 employees (lowered to 50 by the end of 2020) were meeting gender equality criteria on recruitment, career progression, pay and work-life balance.

It will also extend maternity pay from nine to 12 months and introduce free childcare for two to four-year-olds.

The Royal Town Planning Institute's manifesto also urges the next government to protect and grow devolved powers to city regions, remove barriers to city-regional spatial strategies for development and infrastructure and remove legal barriers to allow city regions to fully use their devolved planning powers.

It also highlights that the future pipeline of urgently-needed planners via apprenticeships and planning schools should continue to be strongly supported by government.

From Neighbourhoods to Nations – the importance of planning is at: https://www.rtpi.org.uk/media/3531955/2019%20Manifesto%20for%20Planning.pdf

The Conservative Party has said it will plant 30 million trees a year by 2025 if it wins the general election, using a £640m Nature for Climate fund.

The party said it will treble planting to 30,000 hectares every year by the end of the next Parliament in 2025.

The Liberal Democrats pledged to plant 60m trees a year by 2025.

The Committee on Climate Change (CCC) says 30,000 hectares of woodland should be planted annually. Less than half that amount was planted in the UK in the year to March 2019.

The Conservative's Nature for Climate fund would be used to restore degraded peatland across the country, the party said. A Peat Strategy document is due to be published in early 2020, outlining the future of England and Wales peat use.

Labour shadow environment secretary Sue Hayman has said she would have peat use banned if Labour was elected.

Further reaction

HTA policy and communication director James Clark said on the election's announcement: “Having a strong and vibrant British horticultural sector is vital for sustainable economic growth and environmental development.

"The UK horticulture sector has delivered business investment and created valuable jobs, enhancing economic prosperity in the country at local, regional and national levels. With over 500,000 people directly and indirectly employed across the ornamental horticulture sector, creating over £24bn in GDP we are looking for all political parties to foster supportive and innovative economic programmes to boost our sector’s full potential.

"On the environment, we want to see sustainability and climate change given the high priority it deserves. The garden industry is uniquely placed to support wider national health and well-being benefits of gardening and help create a Greener Britain.

"We will be engaging all the political parties in the coming weeks with our policy proposals.”

Country Land and Business Association president Tim Breitmeyer said: “We welcome the news of a general election in the hope that finally this political paralysis might be cured.

“The political and economic uncertainty faced by rural businesses in recent years has been hugely frustrating. Political parties now owe it to rural communities to lay out robust and ambitious plans to unlock the potential of the rural economy, particularly in recognising the unique role we play in delivering growth and jobs, while answering society’s demands for food production and on the environment.“

Plants for Europe's Graham Spencer said:

“For 2020, it’s hard to make any predictions, as the outcome of the election will have an impact on what happens with Brexit. A hung parliament could lead to further uncertainty. Even if Boris Johnson wins a majority and pushes through his deal, we could still end up on WTO terms (“no deal”) at the end of 2020 if no free trade agreement is agreed and the withdrawal transition period is not extended. I am convinced, still, that Remain would be the best outcome for our industry."
