Nerium oleander
This superb Mediterranean shrub has been in cultivation since 1596. In America, Oleanders were popular as greenhouse specimens by the late eighteenth century and George Washington grew them in containers at Mount Vernon. The Philadelphia nurseryman Bernard McMahon offered oleanders in 1810 under the name "Bay Rose." This is a species form with simple flowers which are somewhat smaller than the hybrids grown today. It produces intensely fragrant, bright pink flowers throughout the summer. Long, leathery, lance-shaped leaves grow in whorls along erect branches.

Ten Annoying Things #8: "Tossers"

noun (adj).  tó-su(r) - any disc golfer having not earned the right to empty their bag on hole #19 at Morley (against course etiquette anyway). This “right” is set aside for those that actually possess the physical ability to reach (“park”) or surpass the current pin position(s) on hole #19 with their drives.

“Tossers” will confuse most of the following attributes as justification to empty their bag… - Many “play bands” on their quad-straps - Their tee shot (distance in feet) = (their weight) +15ft - A full Innova Competition bag or larger - “Brand spankin new” discs - Own one or more Discraft Nuke(s) - Are wearing a Huk-Lab or DD hat or shirt

(Now so no one takes offense, this writer can 1) barely out throw his weight 2) has 2 new Innova Destroyers and 3) owns a Huk-Lab tek-dry shirt. I know my place.)

If you are still not sure if you are a “Tosser” listen for feedback. If you hear “WOWs! after your throws,  you’re good to go. If there is silence or mumbling coming from behind as you walk of the pad, you probably are a “Tosser”.

What's in a name?

In its official announcements, BMW refuses to call its high-riding models SUVs or CUVs and instead prefers the term SAVs – for Sports Activity Vehicle. According to Motoring, Rolls-Royce might also use a unique moniker when the production version of the Project Cullinan arrives in late 2018.

“Project Cullinan? We call it a high-sided vehicle. SUV is not necessarily the right thing to call it because it’s not necessarily sports, it’s not necessarily utility,” Rolls-Royce product communications manager Andrew Boyle told Motoring.

Boyle’s statement makes some sense because calling a Rolls-Royce sporty or utilitarian goes against the brand’s legacy of opulence. However, the term high-sided vehicle seems rather inelegant for one of the company’s products. The company has been hinting towards this term for a while, though. For example during the Project Cullinan’s debut as a test mule, Rolls called it “a high-sided, all-terrain motor car."

Boyle also promised Motoring that the production take on Project Cullinan would be a “different interpretation” than other brands’ take on luxury SUVs. Presumably he’s taking a small jab at Bentley Bentayga with that sentiment because it’s likely to be the Rolls’ biggest competition. Earlier reports suggest the Cullinan would feature coach doors, also known as suicide doors.

The production Cullinan will ride on Rolls’ new aluminum space-frame architecture, which will also underpin all the company's future vehicles. At least at first, power will come from the brand’s venerable V12, but hybrid or even fully electric propulsion will reportedly arrive eventually. The ”high-sided vehicle” will have an all-wheel drive system but will only be capable of light off-roading. Instead, the engineers will focus on a new suspension layout that will offer a claimed “magic-carpet” ride. Cullinan reportedly won’t be much larger than the Phantom, but the longer roof will likely guarantee a greater passenger volume inside.

Mount Sinai Researcher Finds that Being One of the Younger Kids in Class May Have a Negative Effect on Academic Performance

These findings should be taken into account before prescribing stimulants for ADHD.

 – November 19, 2012 /Press Release/  ––

A team of researchers led by an epidemiologist at Mount Sinai School of Medicine has found that being one of the younger kids in class can affect a student's academic performance. The authors of the study believe that these findings should be taken into account when evaluating children for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).  As a result of the study, the team recommends that educators and health care providers take children's relative age in class into account when evaluating academic performance and other criteria for ADHD diagnosis.

Helga Zoega, PhD, Post-Doctoral Fellow of Epidemiology at Mount Sinai's Institute for Translational Epidemiology, along with researchers from Harvard School of Public Health and the University of Iceland worked on the study, titled "Age, Academic Performance and Stimulant Prescribing for ADHD: A Nationwide Cohort Study." The study appears online in Pediatrics on November 19.

The researchers studied more than 11,000 students over a several year period of nationwide data from Iceland. They looked at the likelihood of the children ages 9 and 12 scoring low on tests and how this related to their ages compared to others in their class. They also noted the relative likelihood of younger versus older children being prescribed stimulants between ages 7 and 14.

"Our results showed that children in the youngest third of their class attained scores more than 10 percentile points lower than students in the oldest third of the class for both math and language arts," said the study’s lead author Dr. Zoega. "Children in the youngest third were 50 percent more likely than those in the oldest third to be prescribed stimulants for ADHD."

The researchers found that the effect of relative age on academic achievement might lessen over time, but it is a significant factor up until puberty. Parents can use these findings to help inform their decisions about school readiness for children born close to cutoff dates for school entry.

Photography by Mr John Lindquist | Styling by Mr Dan May
Words by Mr Tom M Ford

With matinée idol looks and a successful two-year stint at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, it's little surprise that Mr Adam Rayner's first acting gig was a notable one. Stepping in for Mr Matt Damon in top West End play This is Our Youth - while Mr Damon publicised smash Hollywood hit The Bourne Identity - Mr Rayner cut his teeth in style, and got his first taste of fame. "My picture was put outside the theatre in London - it was a special opportunity. Matt was very supportive."

This fall, 10 years after his professional stage debut, the UK-based Mr Rayner plays a steely operative in the eagerly anticipated, stylish television spy drama Hunted. Co-stars include the rather delightful Ms Melissa George (Grey's Anatomy), Mr Stephen Dillane (Game of Thrones), and Mr Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Lost). Created by The X-Files' Mr Frank Spotnitz for TV heavyweights HBO and the BBC, it's a project that seems tailor made for a rugged actor with eclectic experiences on both sides of the Atlantic.

Spying is an interesting world to explore. You're not working for Her Majesty's government or queen and country any more - you're working for the highest bidder

Born in the British town of Shrewsbury, Mr Rayner spent part of his childhood in the US with his American-born mother, before returning to Norfolk and then Durham in the UK to study. He went on to complete a two-year course at drama college in London. Since then he has featured in the likes of Doctor Who (being killed by a giant wasp), starred alongside Ms Jada Pinkett Smith in the American medical drama Hawthorne, and has just completed playing a doctor in popular UK comedy Miranda. Interrupting Mr Rayner's day off and double espresso, we talk espionage, inspiration and style.

You've just finished filming for Hunted. What's it about?
It's a spy show that takes place in the world of private intelligence, security and espionage - which is on the rise in the geopolitical game. What used to be just government intelligence agencies is now a free for all with private companies getting involved. It's an interesting world to explore. You're not working for Her Majesty's government or queen and country any more - you're working for the highest bidder.
What's your role?
I work alongside the lead girl, Sam Hunter, played by Melissa George. I run her in the field. She's our main operative and I have to step in to get involved in the operation.
Did you have to do much research?
We managed to find a private company that was prepared to advise the show. One of the operatives came in - a former MI6 agent - and gave us a spying tutorial. Obviously I grew up pretending to be James Bond like most young boys so it was a great thrill to get an insight into that world.
So, what did you learn?
You'll be very disappointed, unfortunately. It's not about dashing around looking great in a dinner suit; it's about being completely forgettable. Most intelligence work is number crunching and data analysis, so 90% of "spies" are just working at desks. It's about blending in completely. You wouldn't tell your partner or closest friends, so the circles you move in are totally to do with intelligence gathering. It's kind of claustrophobic.
What originally fired your acting ambitions?
When I was a kid, I was a huge fan of all the classic movie stars - Sean Connery, Paul Newman, Harrison Ford, Robert Redford. I really identified with these heroic characters. When I got older, I was into people such as Peter O'Toole and Richard Burton, who represented a slightly more cerebral, theatrical, yet hell-raising aspect of the job. Also, when I did a lot of student theatre at university, I met a lot of people from public school backgrounds. They tended to have a great sense that they can do whatever they like. Being around the attitude, "We are the bright young things", was very useful.
Do actors think about their style off set?
I'm more of a classic man than cutting-edge fashion. I like a more conservative look, not a million miles away from what I wore in the MR PORTER shoot. Sometimes I've had to wear some ridiculous stuff so it was nice to wear clothes that I'd feasibly wear in real life. In a lot of shoots you look like a clown. Suit jackets and overcoats is what I go for.
Has shooting Hunted had any effect on your style today?
In the show we have to blend in, wandering around London - but still look cool. It's not super glamorous, but Hunted aspires to be very visually compelling. We're trying to avoid the visual cliché of modern spy wear - lots of zips and pockets - which you often see. I spent a lot of time in a ranch coat, which basically looks like a long waxed Barbour. I couldn't let it go, so I bought it.

Hunted airs on 4 October on BBC One in the UK and on 19 October on Cinemax in the US. The third series of Miranda airs later this year on BBC One in the UK.

    The Laowa 12mm for FF got very very good reviews I believe, so one could hope for similar optical performance here as well.

    You'll inevitably have people to complain that it's a manual lens, but for instances this wide you're more than likely either doing landscape or indoor photography work. For anything street, simply set it to hyperfocal and shoot away.

    Anyone that has used the Samyang 7.5mm FE will tell you that focusing is super easy. Even at f2, a focusing distance of 2m is already infinity.

    Haha, at the risk of sounding especially obnoxious, I almost think 7.5mm is too wide. Would have been happier with something in the 9-10mm range for more day-to-day shooting. That said, this lens should be absolutely exceptional for astrophotography, assuming it can keep coma under control. Even if it has to be stopped down to f2.8, it's much smaller, lighter, and undoubtedly more affordably than the 7-14/2.8 it would be competing against in those circumstances.

    Wow. If this has good performance it will sell boatloads. I am getting one unless it's a total dud. Most likely cost under 500 as well. I love manual wide angle lenses as I manually focus anything wider then 12 mm anyway. MFT chart if it can be trusted is very good in the center with fair corners. If it sharpens up in the corners by f4 it will really be a winner.

    Good show - though for me it wouldn't replace the fish (I like my 180 degrees :)). But as others have said, if it's a solid performer, I'm interested ... And I'll definitely take a closer look at Photokina.

    7.5mm rectilinear is nowhere near as wide as 7.5mm fish-eye, so it can't be that unmanageable. I often think my 9-18 isn't wide enough, always use it as a 9mm prime...

    Hmm if this is available, will I still even need the 9-18?

    The checklist of missing MFT lenses is getting very very small. What are we going to talk about then? :)

    The specs were listed. 170g and 55mm long. Close in size and weight to the 25mm f1.4 or Sigma 60mm.

    On closer inspection, that MTF chart is a little worrying. There is an immediate and steady fall-off in resolution from the centre, f/2.8 is not that different. I guess it's not that surprising given the size of the lens...

    I actually agree with you, but there is such a huge difference between 15 and 20mm equiv, that a 10-10.5mm could still easily fit into the system.

    Here's what they look like next to the Olympus 7-14 Pro (Top chart). Unfortunately they use reversed colors:

    The Olympus is a little flatter throughout the range, while the Venus drops steadily. But the starting and ending points are quite similar.

    Here's the panasonic, too:

    If it were as good as the Samyang 7.5mm FE, I would seriously consider it. Until it's out in the wild and there's substantial feedback I'm sticking with the 7-14 Pro. I am also coming to like the wide angle zoom capability for architectural work - it's a lot safer option than getting run over as I move forward and back to compose.

uggmum Tue 09-Jul-13 09:44:59

The mincer was about £50 I think. I use it regularly. Anytime I make a spag Bol, burgers etc. any meal that I would use mince.

middleagedspread Thu 04-Jul-13 21:00:15

I have a pasta roller attachment, which I love, love, love.
It's like play dough for adults.

BellaVita Sun 30-Jun-13 08:49:27

I am also in love with mine and it gets stroked too grin

krazipan Sun 30-Jun-13 08:45:31

Hehehe! Go for it awakeagain wink

Awakeagain Sun 30-Jun-13 06:41:02

Will have to have a look around
Told dh I was going to save wink for one after mat leave

krazipan Sat 29-Jun-13 17:03:00

Believe it or not the cheapest I found it was in the Harrods sale!

Awakeagain Sat 29-Jun-13 14:31:56

In the sale where
I've been lusting for ages for one

krazipan Sat 29-Jun-13 14:28:25

How much was the mincer uggmum? Do you get a lot of use from it?

uggmum Sat 29-Jun-13 08:08:38

I bought the mincer attachment and I mince all my own meat now. It's much better than shop bought mince.

Pizza dough, pancakes and buttercream come out great too.

Bramblesinforrin Sat 29-Jun-13 08:03:42

Good for mashed potato too.

ditavonteesed Sat 29-Jun-13 07:30:05

I am another stroker here, we make bread with it every day, plus baking, pizza dough, will do more when I have more time. it is used at least once a day and does not clutter up my side it raises the value of my house.

krazipan Fri 28-Jun-13 23:42:43

I've stroked my too luc and caffeine smile. It was expensive but I'm telling myself it's an investment piece! My DS loves pancakes so will have to whip some up this weekend.

Angelik Fri 28-Jun-13 20:20:06

ooh is it totally fab? dh and I stare and dribble at them whenever we see them but can't justify the purchase. also think it would get on our nerves cluttering up work surfaces (which I am constantly clearing of junk so it's not like they are super pristine) but they are too heavy to get in and out of cupboard. we keep saying we'll get one when we move. in 5 years time hmm
in the meantime happy to hear about other stuff you whizz up in your.

Chocolate chip cookies and pancake batter are always made in the Kitchenaid in this house. It works great since both recipes require a few minutes of mixing and then rest the batter in between.

Bugaboo Cameleon vs Silver Cross Wayfarer

(10 Posts)
nicolastripe Wed 16-Oct-13 15:13:23

Hi Mums I am expecting my first baby and I we are looking at Bugaboo Cameleon and the Silver Cross Wayferer. I have experience of working at Mothercare when I was younger and there was mixedreviews re Silver Cross products but realising its so much cheaper I just wondered if the Bugaboo was worth the extra?? Any help you can give I would really appreciate it. Thanks everyone xxxx

Tiggywunkle Wed 16-Oct-13 16:53:16

One word - wheels!
I am getting a Wayfarer next week, I think, and have had 2 Cameleon's. So I will reserve proper judgment until I have had a proper use of the Wayfarer (I have played with it a few times but not taken it out and about). But I think the wheels on the Wayfarer would decide for me. The Cameleon has much more versatility re where you go and what you can do with it wheel wise. The Wayfarer strikes me very much as an urban pushchair.

nicolastripe Thu 17-Oct-13 09:57:56

Thanks for this lovely!!!Can you report back and let me know what you think when you have it - im really torn! I know the Bugaboo so well but the Silver Cross to me looks just as good. I jsut dont want to get the Silver Cross and wish I got the Bugaboo but seeing as its almot half the price Its also such good value fo rmoney xxx

lauren6283 Fri 18-Oct-13 13:34:49

The thing I always look for is whether you see older children in the pushchair, as you often see 2-3 year olds in a bugaboo but never in an iCandy for example, as either they don't fit or parents have switched to something lighter and easier. If you want it to last, then have a look for this. Then again if you went for the cheaper option you would still have money in a year or two to change if the first wasn't suitable.

Tiggywunkle Sat 19-Oct-13 00:10:22

My 3 year old is happily being pushed around in his iCandy and his Bugaboo smile I know he has a couple of inches room for growth in the Wayfarer, hence buying one to try. I am hoping to pick it up tomorrow, and if not early next week.

lucidlady Sat 19-Oct-13 00:15:42

I have a bugaboo and an unusually tall 2 year old DD. I love my Cameleon. It is so smooth and sturdy. It's lasted 2 years of daily usage up fairly muddy, hilly terrain and I've not had any problems with it. DD loves it - will often say to me "I'm going for a sleep in my pram". Well worth the money in my view but I have no experience of that Silver Cros model so no idea if it could be better!

Tiggywunkle Sat 19-Oct-13 23:47:34

I have my Wayfarer now and it is beautiful. However I stick with my view that its an Urban pushchair. We can't find any suspension (if its there you can't see or feel it). However its a very simple to use (compared to the Cameleon which can be a bit fiddly) pushchair with a large accessible basket, good quality fabrics, nice finish and handlebar and I really like it. They are very different pushchairs and TBH you really need to see them both!

Tiggywunkle Sat 19-Oct-13 23:51:56

Ok I apologise - Parties has just taken me to one side and pointed out there is suspension on the front wheels - and yes I can see it now, but only when you get to the wheels and push forwards. We couldn't see it working when we were pushing it. But yes it is there smile

Thanks Ladies, i think i need to go and get testing to see what we think. The Silver Cross is defininatly looking to be a psosiblity more now though! Thanks so much again! xxx

Tiggywunkle Tue 22-Oct-13 21:32:13

Ok, theres no question - the Cameleon is definitely better. The manoeuverability of the Wayfarer is not what I would expect from a pushchair of this size. I struggle to tip up up at the front with the seat forward facing - I had a shock when I couldn't get it over the lip of my front door on the first outing! There is suspension ie the wheels bend (I assume when you go over a bump) but ordinarily you really can't feel or see it working. The lower joint near the basket seems to take the brunt of any jolts / pressing on the handlebar and that worries me. I had high hopes for the Wayfarer but believe me it wont be staying long! One of the shortest staying pushchairs I have had!

Offspring on Netflix

itstheyearzero Wed 14-Sep-16 19:41:28

Has anyone watched this? I stumbled across it a few nights ago and I'm hooked!

itstheyearzero Thu 15-Sep-16 10:25:31

Nobody? Trust me, it's brilliant. Give it a try, you won't regret it! It's like an Australian Grey's Anatomy meets Ally McBeal meets Brothers and Sisters. ...

Indiaplain Thu 15-Sep-16 19:41:48

I love all those shows! Will give this a try tonight..

itstheyearzero Thu 15-Sep-16 23:20:30

Yay! Let me know what you think smile

user1471134011 Fri 16-Sep-16 17:49:59

Just watched first ep - so good! Thanks for recommending!

EllaHen Fri 16-Sep-16 17:54:49

Funnily enough, I just started it last week. Bloody love the dishy doc.

There's 6 seasons to get through. Nice one.

itstheyearzero Fri 16-Sep-16 18:24:13

Ah so glad you both like it. I'm nearly at the end of season 2 already and it just gets better and better smile

Indiaplain Sat 17-Sep-16 07:23:22

Ooh yes I really enjoyed the first 2 eps last night, just the sort of thing I love! Pleased to hear it gets even better. Thanks for the recommendation.

I think one of the characters used to be in 'the secret life of us' which I loved too.

itstheyearzero Sat 17-Sep-16 09:27:20

I'm a bit in love with most of the male characters blush. They all have a certain 'something'. Apart from Clegg of course, he's just a bit too weird.

krazipan Sun 18-Sep-16 18:38:09

Omg, yes! I'm hooked!

itstheyearzero Sun 18-Sep-16 21:40:59

Yay another fantastic! Where are you up to krazi?

krazipan Mon 19-Sep-16 07:08:37

I'm halfway through series 4! grinI've had an unexpected weekend off and I've shot through the episodes.

itstheyearzero Mon 19-Sep-16 07:37:54

Ah I'm part way through season 3 now. I'm going to be gutted when I finish the whole six seasons. It's the best TV I've seen for ages.

Groovee Mon 19-Sep-16 07:47:19

If found it the other night and quite liked it. But I find it easier to watch in smaller bursts.

AMR123456 Mon 19-Sep-16 10:15:57

Just started watching it after seeing this thread. Having to stop to go to work!! I like it already very wittysmile

EllaHen Mon 19-Sep-16 15:25:31

Arggghh! So, Netflix is telling me I'm on Season 3 so I looked up Season 3 on Wiki (to clarify something about one of the episodes) but noooo, season 3 on wiki is season 4 on Nexflix so I've inadvertently read a spoiler.

I've worked out that it's because Netflix has the original film as season 1.

How many times can I write season in one post?

Anyway, don't get caught out folks.

Queenbean Mon 19-Sep-16 15:26:41

Ooooh always after a good Netflix series, what's this about?

EllaHen Mon 19-Sep-16 15:33:47

It's about a family in Melbourne. Main character is an obstetrician. She's got divorced parents and a brother and sister. Lots of character in the hospital and wider family.

Very funny in parts. Nice and gentle but often poignant.

krazipan Mon 19-Sep-16 18:23:07

I've also accidentally found out spoilers Ella and I'm dreading getting to that part!

thetoothfairywhoforgot Mon 19-Sep-16 22:32:59

I love offspring - started halfway though as it is on TV here in NZ. I might go back and start from the beginning now I know it is on Netflicks.

You might like 800 words which is set in NZ but made by an Aussie company. Lots of in jokes about NZ though.

Also Packed to the Rafters is aussie and can be good but more soapy than Offspring.

SavageBeauty73 Tue 20-Sep-16 20:30:37

Ohhhh. Going to start now.

DorotheaHomeAlone Tue 20-Sep-16 20:37:14

I'm chewing through this, too. So watchable.

TheSecondOfHerName Sat 24-Sep-16 19:38:48

Enjoying it so far but on Netflix, Season 1 only seems to have 1 episode, which is a bit confusing.

KP86 Sat 24-Sep-16 19:47:54

Is season 6 on Netflix now? I'm only halfway through.

Aussie here, I LOVE offspring. Even if I spend half the ep cringing at Nina!

Awesome show.

KP86 Sat 24-Sep-16 19:49:07

Ahhh, should've RTFT. Proper season 6 has just shown on Aussie TV, I've been getting DH to download for me.

10 Fun Things to Do in Stockholm with Kids

I have a soft spot for Stockholm as I spent my very early years there, so writing this piece gave me the chance to revisit some memories and see what is new in town. You will find Stockholm a very child-friendly city with plenty of things to do with the kids. Here is my pick of 10 Fun Things to do in Stockholm with Kids:

Sign up for our free monthly newsletters. Follow us on FacebookTwitterInstagram,Youtube & Pinterest.

#1. Skansen

skansenNumber one on my list is a visit to Skansen, the outdoor museum and zoo located on the island of Djurgården. You’ll probably end up spending the best part of a day here with all there is to see.

Visitors to Skansen get to see a miniature historical Sweden, with traditional buildings and traditional ways of life reflected from the past with people in costume showing how rural life was lived. There’s a fun funicular railway take you up to the top of Skansen, particularly handy for strollers and smaller kiddies.

See if you can find the full sized Dalahästa (Dala horses), the traditional carved and brightly painted wooden horses, kids will love climbing up and getting their picture taken on them.

The Zoo at Skansen is committed to showing Scandinavian animals, with 75 different species and breeds from the wild animals such as brown bears and wolves and elk. There’s also a smaller children’s zoo where kids can meet and pet cats, chicks and other small animals.

The Skansen Aquarium houses exotic species of fish and animals, and visitors are allowed in to some of the animals, such as the lemurs and the animals in the Children’s Rain Forest. (NB there’s an extra admission fee for the Aquarium).

Children under 6 go free.

While you are on Djurgården you might also enjoy Gröna Lund, the amusement park, where you’ll find rollercoasters and rides, with some rides catering for very small kids like Mini Bumper Cars.

#2. Gamla Stan

Gamla StanWith its winding alleyways, old buildings, small squares and the Royal Palace, Gamla Stan (Old Town) is a super place for wandering around and is mostly pedestrianised so you don’t have to worry about kids and traffic.

Full of sights and attractions such as the Royal Palace which has a daily Changing of the Guard during the summer, restaurants, cafés, bars and places to shop, you’ll enjoy the narrow winding cobblestone streets, with their buildings in different shades of gold.

See if you can find Mårten Trotzigs gränd (Mårten Trotzigs alley), it’s the narrowest alley in Gamla Stan, only 90 centimeters wide at its narrowest point!

#3. Vasa Museum

vasaThe Vasa is the only preserved 17th-century ship in the world. It sank on its maiden voyage in the middle of Stockholm in 1628, and was salvaged 333 years later in 1961. Since then it has been painstakingly restored to something approaching its original glory and on display at the Vasa Museum. You might think a museum about an old ship would be dull but on the contrary!

Vasa Museum is designed so you can get up close to the ship and the three masts on the roof outside the specially built museum show the height of the ship’s original masts.

There are ten different exhibitions around the ship to tell about life on board the ship and plenty of interactive things to help you learn about those times.

Kids up to 18 go free.

#4. Fjärilshuset

Haga OceanFrom gentle butterflies to ferocious sharks, a visit to The Butterfly House Haga Ocean combined attraction is a must for families. Start your visit to The Butterfly House, where you’ll enjoy walking in the tropical environment with stunningly beautiful and colourful butterflies flying freely around you. There are waterfalls and rich vegetation to explore and you might even get to see a butterfly hatch.

Then after a refreshment break at the Café, it’s time to see some sharks at Haga Ocean! You’ll get to see Blacktip Reef and Sandbar Sharks, coral reefs and enjoy the feeding of the Koi carp every day at 13:00 pm.

Then if you’re feeling extra adventurous, take a trip around Haga park on one of their Segways, kids under 15 can ride by themselves inside the Butterfly House area or in the park area under parental supervision.

#5. Naturhistoriska Museet Stockholm

natural history museum stockholmThe Natural History Museum is a good place to spend a few hours learning and exploring the 10 permanent exhibitions about nature, science and the development of mankind. You’ll learn all about the universe and the earth, animals and plants.

There are dinosaur skeletons and fossils for those who are mad for dinos and kids will enjoy the 3D films at the Cosmonova IMAX® Dome.

Free admission for children and young people aged up to 18.

#6. Junibacken

junibacken story trainJunibacken celebrates author Astrid Lindgren, creator of Pippi Longstocking. You’ll find it a magical, interactive experience!

Centred around The Story Train, you will journey through the stories of Lindgren, ending at Villa Villekulla (Pippi’s house) where you can play in Pippi’s house and ride her horse!

At the time of writing they have a special Moomins exhibition which will remain until 2017. As well as exploring Moominvalley and meeting its magical inhabitants, there is a daily theatre performance And Then What Happened? based on Tove Jansson’s classic book: The Book about Moomin, Mymble and Little My.

Kids under 2 Free.

#7. Museum of Modern Art

The Moderna Museet (Museum of Modern Art) located on Skeppsholmen, an island in central Stockholm, has a fine collection of art & photography – you’ll find works by Picasso, Matisse and Dali there.

It is also a very family friendly museum with a kids’ reading corner, push chair parking, kiddie carriers and baby changing facilities. On Family Sundays there is a special guided tour for families followed by a practical Workshop session, and during school holidays, kids are welcome to join in Moderna Museet’s holiday activities.

Kids under 18 go free and for adults there is also free admission on Fridays from 6:00 to 8:00 PM.

#8. Drottningholm Palace

drottningholmTake a day trip to Drottningholm Palace, the actual residence of the King and Queen of Sweden (the rooms in the southern wing of the palace are reserved for them while the rest of the palace and grounds are open to the public year round).

On UNESCO’s World Heritage list, Drottningholm is a well-preserved royal castle built in the 1600s in Sweden. Think of it as the “Versailles of Sweden”.

The Palace is located on the island of island Lovön about 12km outside of Stockholm and can be accessed by car, taxi or subway but you can also take a boat trip from downtown Stockholm to Drottningholm to make it an extra fun outing.

There is an exotic Chinese Pavilion pleasure palace built as a surprise present for Queen Lovisa Ulrika by King Adolf Frederick in 1753 (imagine that for a surprise!). You will also enjoy visiting the 300 year old Palace Theatre which is only one in the world that still uses the original stage machinery on a regular basis.

And there are wonderful gardens which are easy for smaller walkers and for pushchairs. You can bring a picnic or there are restaurants and a café on the grounds.

#9. ABBA The Museum

abba museum stockholmA treat for ABBA fans but also non-fans will enjoy ABBA The Museum, which as expected has plenty of memorabilia such as ABBA costumes, gold records and other original items.

But what you may not know is at the ABBA museum you get to experience the feeling of being the 5th ABBA member! You can find out what you would look like in their legendary stage costumes, sing at the Polar Studio, experience exciting hologram illusions, and you even get to go on stage with the band!

Kids under 7 go free. They have carriers for small kids as they don’t allow strollers inside the museum but you can borrow a stroller locker free of charge while you visit.

If you’re really into your music, your ticket also gives you entrance to the Swedish Music Hall of Fame and the History of Swedish Popular Music.

#10. Stadshuset Tour

stadshuset stockholmOne of Sweden’s most well-known and popular buildings, the Stadshuset (City Hall) is also famous for being the venue where Nobel Prizes are handed out.

You can take a public tour through the halls of the Stadshuset, including the Blue and Golden Hall – where the Nobel festivities take places. There is a limited number of tickets for each tour, you have to buy tickets at the City Hall on the day of the visit; NB tickets cannot be pre-booked or purchased online.

Also worth doing while you are there is to go up the City Hall Tower. It’s 106m high and offers a breathtaking view of Stockholm. An exciting walk up staircases and narrow passages is well worth the effort and there is a lift that can take you half-way if you don’t want to climb all the stairs or smaller legs can’t manage. You can also visit the Tower Museum, located in the middle of the Tower.

Again, visits are limited to the Tower and on good weather days can sell out quickly, so if you are planning a visit to the Statshuset and Tower, it’s worth planning what time you want to visit and going first thing when the ticket office opens at 9 am to buy your tickets, you can buy them to any of the visits during that day.

Kids under 11 go free.

WAEC Officially States Reason Results are Withheld

An Official of the West African Examination Council (WAEC) states the reason why WAEC withholds results.

why WAEC witholds results

The West African Examination Council says it withholds results due to examination malpractices in its centres, contrary to speculations that it does so when candidates perform excellently.

While speaking at the 18th Youth Empowerment and Restoration Initiative Career workshop organised by Lonadek Oil and Gas Consultants in Lagos on Thursday, the Zonal Coordinator of WAEC, Lagos and Ogun states, Mrs. C.O. Agwu, said examinations conducted by the body were not to witch-hunt candidates, but to examine their academic intelligence.

Agwu said, “WAEC rewards the best three outstanding students in its examinations. Meanwhile, we cancel results of candidates who score zero if there is any indicting report about the centre. It is not about the score, it is about having reports of malpractices at any of our centres.

“Imagine a situation where students from the same centre had the same answers, made the same mistakes, and committed the same errors. In such cases, we call subject professionals to examine the situation and make recommendations.”

She advised students to pay adequate attention to instructions, stressing that candidates lose marks when they don’t pay adequate attention to instructions.

On the issue of leakage of examination questions, Agwu said it was due to loopholes from other concerned persons. (Punch)

Winkey + E in FindeXer Solved!

2 posts in this topic

hello all

just wanted to post here that i've practically solved the winkey + e problem that has plagued all those wanting to adopt findexer as a replacement to treeview in explorer!

for those who don't know what i'm talking about, this pic should explain:

so what is the solution? well, at the moment the problem is that the winkey+e combination brings up explorer, which in itself explicitly activates the tree view. clicking on my computer, or on my documents (say in the start menu) WILL bring up findexer as the default bar (note that to do this, the 'set findexer as default view' option must be selected in findexer options)

so explorer is out... but what if we could override the winkey combination to bring up My Computer, instead of explorer? then, with findexer set as a default view, we should be set! :D

so i looked around a bit and found this great powerful program called AutoHotkey ( ), which is AMAZING in terms of functionality... this program essentially lets you make scripts that you can execute to do things according to keyboard shortcuts, which can include overriding default winkey combinations... neat huh? there's a ton of other stuff, to give credit to whoever made this, but it's quite detailed...

i cbf'd reading through all the options so i just had a look at the essentials and whipped up a quick and dirty script that does the job with no hassle (Y)

Long story short:

i made standalone exe's that don't need anything installed, they can run on their own. There are two flavours:

winkey+E, to replace the default shortcut; OR

winkey + W... i thought that if i did this people could keep the default shortcut while still having some new functionality.

1) these standalones use about 5MB in memory... not perfect, but if you want to use findexer, perhaps it's worth it? up to you... with most computers now anyway most people shouldn't notice this anyway... executes instantly so there's no delay or anything

2) this brings up My Computer, which is what the default winkey + E does anyway - BUT this new method will not allow you to open up more than one window at a time! wtf? well you can't open like more than 1 at a time

you CAN bring up a new window after navigating to another folder in the 1st window you bring up.

let me explain if that wasn't clear: you bring up My Computer the first time... and you MUST navigate to a folder before you can use the shortcut again... this is NOT a limitation of the script/standalone, but windows itself

try it yourself, using the start menu, you can't open more than 1 My Computer window at a time... but as soon as you double click on a folder you're fine, and can bring up another window.. you just can't if the window still shows My Computer

SO you can still use the shortcut, find a file and copy it, then use the shortcut again to find a destination and paste... typical things like that are fine... you'll get what i mean after using it for a bit

to kill the process, you have to use task manager (look for winkey+e, or winkey+w, depending on what you use)

if you want this to run on startup, place it somewhere on your comp and make a shortcut in your startup folder of your start menu.

to those scared that this might be a virus or something... all i can say is, trust me ;) or wait for feedback from some brave people :p

hooray for progress... futurama is awesome! :D

10 days ago, Microsoft officially launched the beta version of, their new web email service. A few days later, the company showed how users of its older Hotmail service could transfer their account to This week, Microsoft offered up some tips to users of Google's Gmail service on how they could also transfer their account to

In a post on the official Outlook blog, Microsoft also takes some time to talk about what it claims are the advantages of over Gmail, including offering a way for users to link their address book to social networking services such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. also offers build in access to other Microsoft online services such as SkyDrive.

Microsoft also once again talked about how doesn't try to flood users with ads generated by emails, stating, " ... it won't use the contents of your personal email to show you ads; in fact, you won't see ads when reading email from friends."

In order to transfer emails from a Gmail account to, Microsoft says users first must sign up for an account (duh). The blog then shows how to add a forwarding address in Gmail so that all of the emails are sent to your address. You can then go into your settings and create a way for it to use your Gmail address when you send email.

Ubuntu Edge campaign far behind $32 million goal with 10 days to go

In July, Canonical launched a crowd sourced fund raising campaign, via Indigogo, to help raise the money for their Linux-based Ubuntu Edge smartphone. The goal? A massive $32 million. Within three days, the campaign had raised over $5 million and seemed to be on track to reaching that rather high goal with some time to spare.

That was then. Now, with 10 days to go, the Ubunto Edge Indiegogo site shows that the campaign has only raised $9.6 million. Canonical would have to see people contribute over $2 million per day to reach the $32 million goal at this stage, and that's something that's appears to be highly unlikely at this point.

So far, the website has yet to show any kind of official concern for the amount of money raised for the smartphone. A few days ago, the site announced that the price of the Ubuntu Edge would now be fixed at $695, rather than have the price of the smartphone go up once a certain number of people donated to a different tier of the campaign. The website said anyone who has pledged over $695 will have the difference refunded.

That's assuming the campaign will be successful, of course. The page claims it has scored a large bundle deal with Bloomberg LP, which offers 115 of the smartphones for $80,000. However, it will have to get quite a few of those large bundle commitments signed up if the campaign has a hope of clearing its $32 million hurdle.

Who's the Boss? When Jobs Are Scarce, the Kids Are
The Wall Street Journal, March 16, 2011

By Sue Shellenbarger

The lemonade stand. For some teens, this summertime staple is no longer a pastime, it's a profit center.

An estimated 120,000 kids in 31 cities are expected to attend one-day entrepreneur-training events in May, called Lemonade Day. The program, launched in 2007 with 2,600 participants, teaches children and teens how to borrow and repay investors who help start their stands, and what to do with profit, including donating some to charity, says founder Michael Holthouse, a Houston philanthropist.

With summer approaching, an increasing number of high-schoolers around the country are preparing to launch their own start-ups—and not just lemonade stands. With lawn-mowing businesses, hand-painting of tennis shoes or Bosnian-language computer repairs, teens are bucking long odds in the dismal job market and earning their own mall money or cash for college.

Title - The Oaks

The Oaks was Washington's command center and Tuskegee Institute's social center. The Oaks, Washington's home, provided tangible evidence of his success. It was a place of employment and an on-the-job training site for students. African-American educators, businessmen, and farmers were entertained there. Professional staff visited frequently. Faculty members often called on Sunday afternoons but Washington often "cloistered himself in his office on Sunday afternoons, while his wife Margaret was entertaining young faculty members in the parlor."

The Oaks, "a large comfortable home," was built for Washington and his family. They moved into the house in 1900. Washington lived there until his death in 1915. His widow, Margaret, lived at The Oaks until her death in 1925. Most furnishings were made by local craftsmen and students, and were acquired between 1885-1889. The Queen Anne style red brick house, with steam heating and electricity, was the first of its kind in Macon County. The Washingtons visited Europe the year construction began. The friezes in the parlor and library depict highlights of their trip. The house had a parlor, library, dining room, den, kitchen, family and guest rooms, breakfast room, five bathrooms, and veranda. The Oaks sat on three acres of gardens, orchards, and pastures.

Famous people who have visited the OaksTuskegee's 25th anniversary in 1906 brought prominent people to The Oaks, including Secretary of War William Howard Taft, Harvard president Charles W. Eliot, and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. The Oaks housed a reception for President Theodore Roosevelt and another for the wedding of Washington's daughter, Portia.

After a grueling speaking tour, Washington was hospitalized in New York City. Desparately ill with what some now believe to be kidney failure and with a short time to live, he said, "I was born in the South, I have lived and labored in the South, and I expect to be buried in the South." He insisted on going home. On November 14, 1915, Booker T. Washington died at his beloved Tuskegee Institute.

4 Under-the-Radar FanDuel MLB Plays for 9/5/16

Ian Desmond has started heating back up, and he has a great matchup Monday. What other plays may fly under the radar?

If you've played daily fantasy sports for a while, you realize by now the importance of being contrarian, especially in large-field tournaments. Being able to recognize which players are going to be owned by the majority of the field and to find players who you think have a similar point projection but will come at much lower ownership can really separate yourself from your opponents.

The purpose of this article will be to bring you some high-upside players who will likely go overlooked and give you an edge.

The following recommendations are for the 4:05 PM main slate only.

Let's get at it.

Davante Adams Is Having a Historically Bad Season

Davante Adams hasn't had a good season for the Packers. In fact, it may be historically bad.

Every little league team had that kid. The chubby, never-hits-the-ball-but-the-parents-and-team-love-him kid.

That kid was on my little league team back in the day. He was up to bat with the bases loaded and two outs, the team down by a run. Batting at the bottom of the order, the outfielders didn't respect him much, so they all moved in a bit. Not that it mattered, because he hadn't made contact all year anyway.

Until that day. That day, the never-gets-a-hit chunky kid blooped the ball into right field. Everyone stood up to cheer -- the guy on third scored, and the game looked to be tied.

Except the unimaginable happened.

He was thrown out at first.

The game was over.

Joy turned to misery in an instant.

Those same emotions have been felt by Davante Adams' fantasy owners -- and Packer fans alike -- this season. A young receiver with all the opportunity in the world, one who was beloved by many, stepped up to the plate. And instead of hitting a game-winning single, he's been thrown out at first from right field. Over and over and over again.

Davante's Struggles

Could we have seen this coming? Perhaps. According to our Net Expected Points (NEP) metric, which you can read more about in our glossary, Adams was actually really inefficient a season ago. His Reception NEP per target average was just 0.58, which ranked 62nd of the 90 wide receivers last year with 30 or more receptions. More importantly, that per-target rate was by far the worst among Packer wideouts -- Jordy Nelson's Reception NEP per target was 0.93, and Randall Cobb's was 0.94. Those were two top-10 averages.

So in the same situation as other Packer wide receivers, Adams was seeing just 62% of the efficiency as the other stud wideouts on the team.

Was it because he was a rookie? That's was certainly a possibility, and it was also a reason for some optimism entering 2015. But things have gotten even worse this year.

Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has targeted Adams 64 times this year, and Adams has caught just 32 of those passes. We've seen worse catch rates than that among higher-volume receivers, to be clear, but most of the wideouts who see that low of catch rates also have accumulated high yards per reception averages. In other words, they're deep ball threats -- their catch rates are lower because they're seeing lower percentage throws.

Adams isn't one of those deep ball guys, as he has a 10.1 yards per reception average right now. Since targets started being recorded back in 1992, per Pro Football Reference, only 17 wide receivers have averaged 11 or fewer yards per reception with a 50% (or worse) catch rate while seeing 60 or more targets in a season.

Davante Adams is one of those players.

And among this group of 17 -- remember, these are guys who have caught 50% or fewer of their targets while seeing 60 or more targets -- Adams' 10.1 yards per reception rate is fifth worst.

Predictably, this has translated to our advanced analytics. Since the turn of the century, 1,198 wide receivers have caught 30 or more passes, excluding this season. In terms of Reception NEP per target -- our per-target efficiency metric -- Davante Adams' current campaign would rank 1,186th within the group.

But you could actually argue that Adams is having -- pretty easily, too -- the worst season our database has ever seen. Because, as you know, poor wide receiver play often has a lot to do with quarterback performance, too.

And when you look at the wide receiver situations among the guys ranked below Adams, it's very clear -- and I mean very clear -- that Adams is in the best situation of them all. Take a look at the chart below which depicts each of these wide receivers, as well as the individual wideout's team schedule-adjusted Passing NEP per drop back average that season.

YearReceiverTeam Passing NEP per Drop Back
2015Davante Adams0.16
2004Ike Hilliard-0.03
2008Shaun McDonald-0.07
2007Keary Colbert-0.02
2003David Terrell-0.23
2013Ace Sanders-0.13
2009Eddie Royal-0.02
2011Mike Thomas-0.19
2001Dez White-0.02
2013Greg Little-0.04
2014Cecil Shorts-0.15
2007Laurent Robinson-0.09
2010Chansi Stuckey-0.05

If you've followed our Net Expected Points metric in the past and understand it, then you're probably on the floor either laughing or crying right now.

This is sincerely ridiculous.

Adams is playing with a quarterback who's averaged, when adjusted for strength of opponent, 0.16 Passing Net Expected Points per drop back. As it stands, that's 12th best in football. The guys on this list didn't have close to that kind of efficiency from their signal-callers, as you can see -- especially David Terrell, who caught passes from the Chris Chandler-Kordell Stewart-Rex Grossman triumvirate back in 2003.

I think Aaron Rodgers is just a little better than those guys. Just a little.

Of course, there's time for Adams to right the ship. But as it stands, it's pretty safe to say that he's having one of the worst seasons we've ever seen from a wide receiver.

Janis Joplin

News about Janis Joplin, including commentary and archival articles published in The New York Times. More

Janis Joplin, who died in 1970 at the age of 27, was a riveting contradiction. She was overpowering and deeply vulnerable, brassy and shy, stylized and direct, indomitable and masochistic. She took the tough rasp of old blues shouters and made it her own by bringing out pain and tension to match the bravado. With magnificent timing Joplin made it seem as if she was pouring out unvarnished emotion. Jon Pareles

The Canadian County Tobacco Prevention program is a community-based program working to reduce tobacco use and promote prevention of tobacco initiation in youth. Canadian County is funded as a Community of Excellence in Tobacco Control through the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust (TSET).

A “Community of Excellence” in tobacco control is one in which social norms consistently point to no tobacco use throughout the community.  Public places and workplaces are smoke-free; community organization and events reject tobacco industry sponsorship; schools implement strong anti-tobacco curriculum and adopt tobacco-free policies; health care providers routinely refer tobacco users to accessible, culturally appropriate cessation services; the local media report accurately on tobacco-related issues; businesses run tobacco prevention messages in their employee newsletters; tobacco industry promotions and activities are monitored and countered; and the police coordinate with the local health department to enforce a tobacco retail licensing ordinance.  This list is potentially endless, limited only by the imagination, enthusiasm, and determination of a local coalition.

Program Priority Areas

1. Eliminate secondhand smoke exposure

2. Prevent youth from starting tobacco use

3. Promote tobacco cessation services

4. Reduce tobacco industry influences

If you would like to become involved with the Canadian County Tobacco Subcommittee, please contact Debra Fry at the Canadian County Health Department 405-422-6439 or at DebraF@health.ok.gov

alexa Concurrent validity and reliability of two-dimensional video analysis of hip and knee joint motion during mechanical lifting.

Journal of Pain & Relief

Author(s): Norris BS, Olson SL

Abstract Share this page

Abstract Movement patterns used during mechanical lifting are usually assessed subjectively by clinicians as a stoop or squat based on visual estimation of joint motion and position. Two-dimensional (2D) video analysis has the potential to objectively measure joint motion during a mechanical lifting task. This study investigated concurrent validity, intrarater, interrater, and test-retest reliability of 2D video analysis using Dartfish software for the measurement of sagittal plane angles at the hip and knee during mechanical lifting. Fifteen healthy female participants (mean age 27.1 ± 7.1 years) were recruited to perform mechanical lifting on 2 separate test days. Concurrent validity was determined by comparing 2D derived hip and knee flexion angles to goniometric measures. Intrarater and interrater reliability of the 2D kinematic procedures was determined by using examiners with varying experience in the use of Dartfish software. Between-day test-retest reliability of hip and knee 2D kinematics during mechanical lifting was assessed. Concurrent validity of 2D angle analysis using Dartfish software was supported by high correlations (Pearson r ≥ 0.95) and nonsignificant differences between 2D and goniometric measures of sagittal plane hip and knee motion. Both intrarater and interrater reliability values of hip and knee flexion angles were excellent (ICC ≥ 0.91). ICCs for test-retest reliability were 0.79 and 0.91 for hip and knee flexion, respectively. These findings and the ease of data capture using this system provide support for the clinical utility of 2D video analysis to provide objective measures of movement patterns at the hip and knee during a dynamic functional task.

alexa Production of de novo cardiomyocytes: human pluripotent stem cell differentiation and direct reprogramming.

Atherosclerosis: Open Access

Author(s): Burridge PW, Keller G, Gold JD, Wu JC

Abstract Share this page

Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death worldwide. The limited capability of heart tissue to regenerate has prompted methodological developments for creating de novo cardiomyocytes, both in vitro and in vivo. Beyond uses in cell replacement therapy, patient-specific cardiomyocytes may find applications in drug testing, drug discovery, and disease modeling. Recently, approaches for generating cardiomyocytes have expanded to encompass three major sources of starting cells: human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), adult heart-derived cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs), and reprogrammed fibroblasts. We discuss state-of-the-art methods for generating de novo cardiomyocytes from hPSCs and reprogrammed fibroblasts, highlighting potential applications and future challenges.

alexa Success of strategies for combining employment and breastfeeding
Social & Political Sciences

Abstract Share this page

OBJECTIVE: Return to work is associated with diminished breastfeeding intensity and duration. Although more mothers breastfeed after returning to work now than earlier, research has not documented the strategies that mothers use for combining paid work and breastfeeding or their effect on breastfeeding outcomes. This study examined which strategies are associated with smaller decrements in breastfeeding intensity and longer durations. PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS: We analyzed 810 mothers from the Infant Feeding Practices Study II who worked and breastfed. We used regression and censored regression models to analyze 4 strategies that mothers used to combine these 2 activities: (1) feed directly from the breast only; (2) both pump and feed directly; (3) pump only; and (4) neither pump nor breastfeed during the work day. Outcomes were the difference in percentage of milk feeds that were breast milk between the month before and after return to work and duration of breastfeeding after return to work. RESULTS: Forty-three percent of mothers pumped milk at work only; 32% fed the infant directly from the breast only. These 2 strategies, along with pumping and feeding directly, were statistically similar and superior to neither pumping nor breastfeeding during the work day for the outcome of change in breastfeeding intensity. For the outcome of breastfeeding duration, the 2 strategies that included directly feeding from the breast were associated with longer duration than pumping only, whereas the strategy of neither pumping nor breastfeeding during the work day was associated with the shortest duration. CONCLUSIONS: Feeding the infant from the breast during the work day is the most effective strategy for combining breastfeeding and work. Ways to enable direct feeding include on-site child care, telecommuting, keeping the infant at work, allowing the mother to leave work to go to the infant, and having the infant brought to the work site. Establishing ways for mothers to feed from the breast after return to work is important to meet US breastfeeding goals.
