I know I saw this somewhere cause it said: "The picture that was shown when LU went down for a little while" or something like that.
This is a route that goes all around the perimeter of the municipal area of L´Escala, with the exception of Cinclaus, going along the coastal strip and returning inland.
Technical Specifications
- Departure point: Cala Montgó
- Type of route: Round
- Distance: 18 km
- Time: 6 hours
- Difficulty: High (because of the distance involved)
To follow the route:
The route starts at Cala Montgó and from the beach itself you head towards L'Escala, along Carrer Trenca Braços, on the right, coinciding with the GR-92. Once at the top, in front of Illa Mateua Beach, in Carrer Punta Montgó, turn left to follow the sea, following the GR-92 markers. Go past the Punta dels Cinc Sous, Cala del Salpatx and Les Penyes until you get to Port de la Clota.
Then cross over the port by Carrer Romeu de Corbera, until you come to Riells Beach. At the beach, walk along Passeig del Petit Príncep until you get to Passeig del Mar, which takes you, following the coast, to the old centre of L'Escala. Carry along Passeig Lluís Albert and Port d'en Perris to La Platja. From La Platja (the main town beach) take Carrer Cargol and then Ronda Mar d'en Manassa, on your left, following the coastline. Go past La Creu small bay where you will see the fishermen's huts. This coastal path takes you to the place known as L’Oberta, from where you can see the beaches of Empúries. Walk along the Ronda del Pedró for about 200 metres and when you get to the Lampadòfor (the lamp bearer, the sculpture built to commemorate the arrival of the Olympic flame) turn right to take the Empúries Promenade.
The Empúries Promenade is two and a half kilometres long and runs parallel to the beaches of Empúries. It takes you past the Platja del Rec, Platja del Portitxol, Platja de les Muscleres and Platja del Moll Grec beaches, and you come to Sant Martí d'Empúries, which is the end of the route.
Go past the village of Sant Martí d'Empúries, heading south, taking the main road that leaves the village. From the same road, take the left at the first path you come to, and continue along this path towards Mas Sastruc. At the crossroads with Mas Sastruc, carry straight on and cross over the main road at its narrowest part. On the other side of the road, near the Tourist Information Office, take a path there is on the left that will take you to Les Corts farmhouses, signposted as "Camí de les Corts a Empúries", go between the farmhouses and turn left towards El Molí de L'Escala restaurant, until you come to Camp dels Pilans, in Carrer Muntanya Rodona. This will take you to a path that heads south, right at the edge of the houses. You will find a signpost that labels the path "Via Heraklea" and from here on, follow the livestock path which winds between the pine trees. You will come to the large pine tree known as Pi Gros, carry on towards the south until you reach the road to Bellcaire. Cross over this road and go into the car park of Els Recs farmhouses, from here go to the football pitch and take the path behind it heading south, until you get to Cortal Nou. From Cortal Nou, take the "Termes" Path heading east, go through the old sand quarry, following the green and white markers, cross over Carrer Punta Milà and following the perimeter of the campsites, you will get to the end of the route, Cala Montgó.
Others values:
The value of this route lies in the combination and variety of spaces and landscapes; on the one hand the route takes you along the coast, going past a large number of beaches and small bays and panoramic viewpoints. On the other hand, it takes you past farmhouses and along rural paths with great landscape and botanical interest.

Another great demonstration of the difficulties and hazards caused by the ignorant drivers who park outside the church (on the left) almost daily now.
This section of road has long been blighted by inconsiderate parking by visitors to the church which is situated through a gateway to the left of the picture.
I have flagged this issue to the council on two separate occasions, and I have also written to the vicar of said church, imploring him to ask his "guests" to park in the large (usually almost empty) FREE car park that is situated about 40 yards from the church. Utilising the car park would leave the church-goers with a walk of no more than 100 yards from their cars to the church door.
Opposite the church is the church hall, which is passed by a very narrow pavement. The pavement is further obstructed by 4 or 5 buttresses which stick out from the church hall wall, forcing pedestrians to have to step onto the road, or to have to cross to the other side... risking being hit by oncoming traffic, the drivers of which may not have seen them due to the buttresses and/or the cars parked alongside the church.
Immediately at the far side of the church hall is a concealed junction into a residential street, which sees it's fair share of vehicles attempting to exit the junction, usually turning left towards the main road (50 metres away), and with the view to the left partially obstructed by the aforementioned buttresses. Due to the cars being parked alongside the church, traffic turning left out of this junction then meets oncoming traffic coming head-on on the "wrong" side of the road... occasionally with the added hazard of pedestrians skipping round the buttresses while the head-to-head vehicles take evasive action! The pedestrians virtually take their lives in their hands every time the walk to the parade of shops on the main road, behind my position above.
In spite of the obvious hazards, the adjacent free car park ( less than 40 yards away), and the fact that I have written to the vicar pointing out the difficulties caused by this parking, these church-goers continue to park here almost every day of every week with no consideration to the safety of others.
I don't know if there have been any injurious accidents to date, but I am sure that if and when there is one, the selfish, ignorant, lazy drivers will simply turn the other cheek.
Note: I am aware that there are no yellow lines or other marked parking restrictions, so, as such the drivers parking here could argue that they are not committing an offence. However, one can still commit an offence of causing an obstruction or driving without due consideration of other road users (including cyclists or pedestrians) by parking in a position which creates a danger to others, such as that seen in this image.
A perfect demonstration of the problems caused by inconsiderate, lazy drivers parking here can be seen here.

Difficulties In Your Life Do Not Come To Destroy You. But To Help You Realise Your Hidden Potential And Power. Let Difficulties Know That You Too Are Difficult
The most difficult footpath?
My wife & I walked the Blencathra Wainwrights. Finishing on Blencathra, we descended Doddick Fell (one of the ridges on the south side of the mountain). This path is steep and rocky but has no great difficulty. At the bottom, direct access to the road (A66) is not possible and we had to follow the footpath (on the fell side of the open land boundary wall) eastwards towards Scales. I could see from the map that the path loops into the Scaley Beck valley.
Upon reaching this valley we encountered this steep, rocky and smooth step. We managed to get down by holding onto the fence as the rock was curiously devoid of good handholds. This put us onto a horizontal path which led in a few yards to a second, even steeper rocky step. This step was much steeper than the first and was about 15 feet high (high enough to do serious damage upon falling). To the left (facing downhill) was a vertical chimney absolutely oozing with water and slime; in the middle is an overhang; to the right was a vertical wall. Again the slabs above were curiously devoid of good hand holds. Hoping to get a better grip on the rock and fully expecting to be down in a minute, I removed my gloves in order to get a better grip and threw them down to the bottom. Bare hands didn't help at all and after lots of dithering, we climbed back to above the first step. A faint path leading higher into the valley seemed to offer a safer alternative. We followed this, heading for what appeared to be a more manageable slope, but this path soon petered out. As we battled further up through dense foliage, a walker appeared at the top of the corresponding Bad Step on the West Bank coming in the opposite direction. He had some difficulty in descending that step but did make progress. I realised that he would find my gloves and I tried to shout down to him, but he couldn't hear because of the water and he didn't look our way, so didn't see us. I was hoping that he would be stopped by the West Bank step because I knew that he would pick up my gloves.
The thick foliage and steep slope slowed us considerably and it took a while to reach the stream bed further up the valley. We now followed the stream down hill, back towards the path. Even here progress was difficult, with many rocky drops being encountered; at several places we actually had to wade in the water. After a long time we finally regained the path where it crosses the stream. There was no sign of the walker nor of my gloves, so presumably he'd climbed the step and picked up my gloves thinking that he might catch up with their owner (me).
My wife and I managed to ascend the rock step on the East Bank without too much difficulty; it's definitely easier than the West Bank step, although again, it might be intimidating to descend.
We finally got back to the car at Scales. I looked at the map, trying to decide where the lone walker might emerge onto the road. We drove to several possible locations but we never saw him (or my gloves) again. What was bizarre was that he was the only other walker we saw on that side of the mountain and at the very moment that I was (temporarily) separated from my gloves.
Has anybody else walked that path and encountered those Bad Steps? I would say that they are definitely the most difficult that I have encountered on a footpath.

Because of difficulties with transport - they were too big to fit in a car - I ended up lugging the damn things to Leeds myself, nearly skewering little old ladies as I got on and off crowded buses and causing considerable confusion until I finally got them in the guard's van on the train. Another confusion arose getting them off the train and transporting them to JL's home [He was still in Labrador taking care of equipment at this point]. As I proudly marched through the front gate holding the precious antlers aloft, his wife who happened to be looking out of the window as I arrived, yelled out "You're not bringing that thing in here!!". I don't know if he ever managed to get his great trophy to where he wanted to put it....

Serco staff struggle to cope with the overflow bike parking near Waterloo Station by London's South Bank.
They were having to free up some docking stations so people could check their bikes in.
The surplus bikes are then loaded on to a lorry and distributed to empty or depleted cycle hire locations around the capital.
--
Having used the cycle hire scheme successfully on several occasions, yesterday evening I found I couldn't get a green light to release a bike.
The helpful Serco operative checked my balance with me on the terminal and it was fine. However, I couldn't release a bike, even though I tried putting my key in about 10 docking stations.
Today I enquired by phone and was told that you have to wait 5 minutes after getting a red light before you can try for a green light, due to the configuation of the computer system running the scheme.
The helpdesk operator was surprised I wasn't aware of the 5 minute rule. I said in that case I was equally, if not more surprised, that the Serco contractor wasn't aware of it either.
Better communication needed all round.
And much, much more user research, modelling and usability testing needed for systems like this (and yes, that is an offer of my professional services!).
ate Arch trail.
Length: 3 miles roundtrip
Difficulty: Moderate
Description: Delicate Arch is the most recognizable arch in Arches National Park, and perhaps anywhere in the world. It also happens to be located along one of the most dynamic hiking trails within Arches National Park. More than 480 feet above the parking lot and trailhead in the valley below, Delicate Arch is hidden in a bowl at the top of one of the park’s famous sandstone fins. Delicate Arch is freestanding, and magnificently alone in the natural sandstone bowl, standing out against the multitude of horizontal planes around it. The arch was once part of the upper section of the fin, until erosion took its toll upon the sandstone throughout the years, and now Delicate Arch is all that remains of that Entrada sandstone formation.
The Delicate Arch Trailhead is located on the Wolfe Ranch turnoff, which is 11.5 miles up the Arches Entrance Road. The right turn to Delicate Arch is advertised at the turnoff, and the trailhead is on the left side of the road, at the ranch. The trail is rugged and steep, especially near the end as it mounts the sloped side of the sandstone fin. Along the way, visitors will pass a pioneer homestead, Ute Indian petroglyphs, an overgrown streambed, throngs of juniper, a smaller arch, and the famous slickrock for which the Moab area is world-famous.
Delicate Arch Trailhead
The trail starts at a fairly large parking lot off the side of the road, passes the old Wolfe Homestead, and then crosses a bridge over Salt Wash.
Wolfe Ranch
This homestead was built by a disabled Civil War vet, John Wesley Wolfe, in 1888 and inhabited until 1910, when the aging owner moved back to Ohio.
Ute Petroglyphs
This panel of rock art is attributed to the Ute culture. In includes a number of bighorn sheep, horses and dogs.
Frame Arch
Frame Arch is next to invisible when compared with the splendor of Delicate Arch just around the corner; most hikers barely even recognize the arch on its own merits. However, Frame Arch is famous for being the perfect window through which to photograph Delicate Arch, and many people use it to frame their shots of its more photogenic sibling, as its name suggests.
Delicate Arch
Delicate Arch has graced many magazine covers, mantle pieces, coffee tables, stamps, license plates, and a variety of other media. It is an international attraction, and has drawn its fair share of abuse over the years, including (now illegal) climbing, and ignorant pyrotechnics.

Park Avenue Trail
Length: 2 miles round trip
Difficulty: Easy.
Description: The Park Avenue Trail is one of the first major attractions within Arches National Park. It is a one-mile trail that follows the bottom of a canyon at the feet of some of the park’s gigantic, and well-known monoliths.
The Three Gossips, the Courthouse Towers, Queen Nefertiti and Queen Victoria Rock, the Organ, and the Tower of Babel are all visible from the road as visitors drive up towards Balanced Rock and Delicate Arch, but there is a large difference in experience when actually hiking through them. All of these natural wonders are famous and oft-photographed.
Park Avenue Trailhead
The lower trailhead is located on the Arches Entrance Road, 2.5 miles north of the visitors center, off to the north side of the road. The parking lot has a paved walkway that heads 320 feet to a Viewpoint. From there, there is a well-worn trail that heads down the Avenue and towards the Courthouse Towers Parking Lot.
The Courthouse Towers
The massive sandstone towers that make up the western background of Park Avenue are called the Courthouse Towers. Like the prows of enormous ships, these landmarks jut out into the desert below, some of them over 600 feet tall.
The Organ
The Organ is a smaller monolith just to the south of the Tower of Babel, off to the right side of the Arches Entrance Road. The Courthouse Towers parking lot sits off to the west flank of the Organ.
Courthouse Towers Trailhead
The upper trailhead is at the Courthouse Towers parking lot, off to the west flank of a rock structure known as The Organ.
The Tower of Babel
The Tower of Babel is located to the north of the Courthouse Towers, standing just above Courthouse Wash, north of the Organ and beside the Entrance Road.

Focus on Eldercare's response to COVID-19
At the purpose when the noxious impacts of COVID-19 showed first in Wuhan, the entire city and therefore the entire of Hubei Province ground to a halt. The lockdown of Wuhan brought remarkable torment and threatening difficulties for several individual occupants therein first focus. Presently, COVID-19 represents those equivalent difficulties for individuals and social welfare frameworks all-inclusive. Especially, it tests our aggregate endeavors to believe one another, particularly the foremost defenseless among us.
As a populace, individuals quite 70 will generally have more fragile insusceptible frameworks and progressively fundamental conditions that obstruct their capacity to battle the infection. They're likewise sure to dwell on bunch day to day environments, nearby people. Floods of COVID-19 passings in nursing homes — first within the Seattle territory, at that time on the brink of Sacramento and now during the country — have underscored this inauspicious reality. Up until now, Californians quite 65 have made up, at any rate, a fourth of the state's affirmed instances of COVID-19.
Be that because it may, guidelines, especially for helping living offices, are unsafely failing to satisfy the expectations in protecting California's older folks from this infection. Luck, Gov. Gavin Newsom's plan on Aging activity, as of now ongoing, presents an opportunity to forcefully address this peril and find how to secure an enormous number of more seasoned Americans.
Helped living focuses are an aid to the Eldercare business and therefore the enormous corporate proprietors that currently command the market. Simultaneously, in any case, an absence of guideline and oversight of staffing levels and capabilities — particularly prerequisites for on-location doctors and much prepared clinical experts — has left the business defenseless against misuse and unfortunate results. One glaring issue that has got to be tended to: helped living focuses are directed by the state Department of Social Services rather than the Department of Public Health.
In any case, it helped to measure maybe a piece of social welfare and clinical consideration conveyance framework, not only a direction for living. Propelled a year ago, Newsom's plan on Aging has framed a warning advisory group, is holding open gatherings and within the fall is planned to offer a 10-year plan which will address issues from lodging and vagrancy to crisis readiness to manhandle and disrespect. The venture has made a "Value Committee" to urge a contribution from a progressively differing gathering of residents and associations, including agents of the crippled network, Native Americans and other ethnic minorities.
Considering the spreading coronavirus general wellbeing emerging, it's basic that the representative's plan on Aging takes on an expansive and genuine open arrangement job. We weren't bothered with elevated level clichés for tending to the wants of the old. We'd like solid arrangements, solid guidelines with implementation teeth and a guarantee to continued oversight.
The Age of COVID-19
Older people who get themselves out of the blue alone without authority over their conditions are at specific hazards for an assortment of serious, even hazardous, physical and psychological well-being conditions, including a subjective decrease. Limitations on the opportunity of development ought to be proportionate and not founded solely on age.
COVID-19, as different irresistible melodies, represents a higher hazard to populaces that live in nearness. This hazard is especially intense in nursing or matured consideration offices, where the infection can spread quickly and has just brought about numerous passings. About 1.5 million older people individuals live in the nursing homes in the US, barring helped living offices and different settings making nearness.
Twenty-three individuals kicked the bucket in a flare-up at an office in Washington State in February and March, and the US Centers for Disease Control detailed 400 additional cases in offices as of April 1. On March 31, wellbeing experts in the Grand East district of France detailed 570 passings of older people in nursing homes.
Older people often end up in nursing homes due to governments' inability to offer adequate social types of assistance for individuals to live freely in the network, approaches that have put millions at included danger of getting the infection as a result of their organization. Governments ought to guarantee the progression of network-based administrations with the goal that individuals don't wind up in organizations without different alternatives.
Expound now on the roles played via care laborers in continuing the lives of the old during that emergency, and who, however dreadful themselves, by and by remain day in and outing inside the bounds of their wards to offer fundamental consideration.
Care supervisor Chang, the woman in charge of the consideration laborers among whom I led my hands-on work, coordinated the change of her ward into a self-sufficient fixed of a unit of care. The passage to her floor is carefully monitored; just fundamental conveyances are permitted, for instance, nourishment and clothing. Since nobody can enter or leave the structure, the flask for the older was transformed into a dozing region for care laborers. Despite the very fact that a lot of consideration laborers have their circle of relatives to require care of, they put that piece of their life under the control of others. Care specialist Lin, whose spouse died at the start of the pandemic, did not have the chance to completely grieve his passing due to incessant understaffing at Sunlight. She came back to figure following the burial service, despite realizing that she not, at now expected to figure at Sunlight to hide her significant other's clinical costs. Lin's arrival says much regarding her promise to her calling, to her colleagues, and to the old she had come to understand so well. My examination with care laborers recommends that it's an enthusiastic association and an awareness of other's expectations that propels them to remain the end of the day in care work. This is often borne out immediately.
Carefully add China is often seen as being grimy and unfortunate, thanks to an excellent extension to its nearby hook up with the realistic consideration required by slight, skilled bodies. Chinese consideration laborers are for the foremost part provincial to urban transients or urban specialists laid far away from previous state-claimed processing plants. In any case, direct consideration is intricate. In any case, its unpredictability goes unrecognized, or maybe disregarded by institutional powers that organize benefits and generalize the old as bodies to chip away at, to the disregard of their social-passionate necessities. As is valid with Sunlight, things which might typically undermine the keenness of care laborers, for instance, the absence of institutional acknowledgment for his or her enthusiastic work, are required to be postponed. Care specialists are currently centered around a shared objective: ensuring the gift assistance of the older. COVID-19 propels care laborers to consider what kind of care is required and the way to offer that care. It fills in as a channel through which the elemental beliefs of care are observed. Care is about common human weakness and our intrinsic association. Care laborers at Sunlight, in their aggregate every minute of everyday endeavors to secure the older, typify this ethic through their consideration. May the respectful regard, they hold of the older in their consideration redound on them and everyone consideration laborers overall who are fighting this pandemic on the bleeding edge!
Like the consideration laborers at Sunlight, the laborers in numerous nations are regarded human life so that we cannot be embarrassed to return clean with the leading edge about ourselves. Salute the spearheading staff who salutes our purposeful endeavors to handle the pandemic in numerous settings around the globe, within the daylight, yet additionally to ensure that veterans are appropriately treated, took care of and washed.
We all hope and pray that the coronavirus will soon be controlled and subdued. And that when the crisis is behind us, that we continue the important work of protecting the elderly and other vulnerable segments of our citizenry.

Write your testimony about the concequences from the time of Corona virus (COVID-19). Here is a great knowledge base about the effects of the Corona virus. Thank you for your story! article-directory.org/article/717/40/Emergency-Situations...
Despite the health difficulties and stressful drama over the last few months, including getting laid off and venturing out on my own, it seems the big 39 has arrived.
That's right. 39 years of age.
Most of the critics, haters and doubters wrote me off when I got my ASD (autism spectrum) diagnosis at four years old and even then, despite my hellish nightmare of a journey to become my true self.
But as I now begin the final year of my 30's, I now face a new challenge.
Did you know that the average life expectancy for someone who is on the autism spectrum is between 39 to 58 years old?
That's around 42 years less than the average life expectancy of a male (81) and 46 years less than a female at 85 years old in Australia.
Scary stuff, huh?
Well, to be honest with you, despite my ticker starting to give out due to family genetics and my anxiety, stress and C-PTSD deciding to play havoc with my mind and causing all sorts of health complications, I am now at that point in my life where, technically, I am in the danger zone of sorts in terms of life expectancy.
Now, you may be asking at this point....
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Miss Cece?! This is supposed to be about YOU today and clocking over another year on the odometer, not some melodramatic diatribe on how your life could be cut short!"
Yes, I know.
On the one hand, I'm now one year away from going on 40. I want to achieve that milestone and eventually my ruby, gold and diamond jubilee celebrations.
On the other, I know now, that any day that the lights are going to be shut out for good.
But, I've been here before and defied the odds, despite a grim outlook and nearly facing the reaper the first time in 2015 when my weight ballooned to over 140kg due to a coming out going sideways and dealing with a lot on my plate.
So, despite my stuffed-up heart, a throbbing mind and going through a lot of heck, the annual tradition of "Cake Day" is upon us once again.
"Only twelve more months until the ruby 40th anniversary celebrations!""
(and that's if my ticker or mind holds steady and doesn't throw up any surprises between now and next year!)
Focus on Eldercare's response to COVID-19
At the purpose when the noxious impacts of COVID-19 showed first in Wuhan, the entire city and therefore the entire of Hubei Province ground to a halt. The lockdown of Wuhan brought remarkable torment and threatening difficulties for several individual occupants therein first focus. Presently, COVID-19 represents those equivalent difficulties for individuals and social welfare frameworks all-inclusive. Especially, it tests our aggregate endeavors to believe one another, particularly the foremost defenseless among us.
As a populace, individuals quite 70 will generally have more fragile insusceptible frameworks and progressively fundamental conditions that obstruct their capacity to battle the infection. They're likewise sure to dwell on bunch day to day environments, nearby people. Floods of COVID-19 passings in nursing homes — first within the Seattle territory, at that time on the brink of Sacramento and now during the country — have underscored this inauspicious reality. Up until now, Californians quite 65 have made up, at any rate, a fourth of the state's affirmed instances of COVID-19.
Be that because it may, guidelines, especially for helping living offices, are unsafely failing to satisfy the expectations in protecting California's older folks from this infection. Luck, Gov. Gavin Newsom's plan on Aging activity, as of now ongoing, presents an opportunity to forcefully address this peril and find how to secure an enormous number of more seasoned Americans.
Helped living focuses are an aid to the Eldercare business and therefore the enormous corporate proprietors that currently command the market. Simultaneously, in any case, an absence of guideline and oversight of staffing levels and capabilities — particularly prerequisites for on-location doctors and much prepared clinical experts — has left the business defenseless against misuse and unfortunate results. One glaring issue that has got to be tended to: helped living focuses are directed by the state Department of Social Services rather than the Department of Public Health.
In any case, it helped to measure maybe a piece of social welfare and clinical consideration conveyance framework, not only a direction for living. Propelled a year ago, Newsom's plan on Aging has framed a warning advisory group, is holding open gatherings and within the fall is planned to offer a 10-year plan which will address issues from lodging and vagrancy to crisis readiness to manhandle and disrespect. The venture has made a "Value Committee" to urge a contribution from a progressively differing gathering of residents and associations, including agents of the crippled network, Native Americans and other ethnic minorities.
Considering the spreading coronavirus general wellbeing emerging, it's basic that the representative's plan on Aging takes on an expansive and genuine open arrangement job. We weren't bothered with elevated level clichés for tending to the wants of the old. We'd like solid arrangements, solid guidelines with implementation teeth and a guarantee to continued oversight.
The Age of COVID-19
Older people who get themselves out of the blue alone without authority over their conditions are at specific hazards for an assortment of serious, even hazardous, physical and psychological well-being conditions, including a subjective decrease. Limitations on the opportunity of development ought to be proportionate and not founded solely on age.
COVID-19, as different irresistible melodies, represents a higher hazard to populaces that live in nearness. This hazard is especially intense in nursing or matured consideration offices, where the infection can spread quickly and has just brought about numerous passings. About 1.5 million older people individuals live in the nursing homes in the US, barring helped living offices and different settings making nearness.
Twenty-three individuals kicked the bucket in a flare-up at an office in Washington State in February and March, and the US Centers for Disease Control detailed 400 additional cases in offices as of April 1. On March 31, wellbeing experts in the Grand East district of France detailed 570 passings of older people in nursing homes.
Older people often end up in nursing homes due to governments' inability to offer adequate social types of assistance for individuals to live freely in the network, approaches that have put millions at included danger of getting the infection as a result of their organization. Governments ought to guarantee the progression of network-based administrations with the goal that individuals don't wind up in organizations without different alternatives.
Expound now on the roles played via care laborers in continuing the lives of the old during that emergency, and who, however dreadful themselves, by and by remain day in and outing inside the bounds of their wards to offer fundamental consideration.
Care supervisor Chang, the woman in charge of the consideration laborers among whom I led my hands-on work, coordinated the change of her ward into a self-sufficient fixed of a unit of care. The passage to her floor is carefully monitored; just fundamental conveyances are permitted, for instance, nourishment and clothing. Since nobody can enter or leave the structure, the flask for the older was transformed into a dozing region for care laborers. Despite the very fact that a lot of consideration laborers have their circle of relatives to require care of, they put that piece of their life under the control of others. Care specialist Lin, whose spouse died at the start of the pandemic, did not have the chance to completely grieve his passing due to incessant understaffing at Sunlight. She came back to figure following the burial service, despite realizing that she not, at now expected to figure at Sunlight to hide her significant other's clinical costs. Lin's arrival says much regarding her promise to her calling, to her colleagues, and to the old she had come to understand so well. My examination with care laborers recommends that it's an enthusiastic association and an awareness of other's expectations that propels them to remain the end of the day in care work. This is often borne out immediately.
Carefully add China is often seen as being grimy and unfortunate, thanks to an excellent extension to its nearby hook up with the realistic consideration required by slight, skilled bodies. Chinese consideration laborers are for the foremost part provincial to urban transients or urban specialists laid far away from previous state-claimed processing plants. In any case, direct consideration is intricate. In any case, its unpredictability goes unrecognized, or maybe disregarded by institutional powers that organize benefits and generalize the old as bodies to chip away at, to the disregard of their social-passionate necessities. As is valid with Sunlight, things which might typically undermine the keenness of care laborers, for instance, the absence of institutional acknowledgment for his or her enthusiastic work, are required to be postponed. Care specialists are currently centered around a shared objective: ensuring the gift assistance of the older. COVID-19 propels care laborers to consider what kind of care is required and the way to offer that care. It fills in as a channel through which the elemental beliefs of care are observed. Care is about common human weakness and our intrinsic association. Care laborers at Sunlight, in their aggregate every minute of everyday endeavors to secure the older, typify this ethic through their consideration. May the respectful regard, they hold of the older in their consideration redound on them and everyone consideration laborers overall who are fighting this pandemic on the bleeding edge!
Like the consideration laborers at Sunlight, the laborers in numerous nations are regarded human life so that we cannot be embarrassed to return clean with the leading edge about ourselves. Salute the spearheading staff who salutes our purposeful endeavors to handle the pandemic in numerous settings around the globe, within the daylight, yet additionally to ensure that veterans are appropriately treated, took care of and washed.
We all hope and pray that the coronavirus will soon be controlled and subdued. And that when the crisis is behind us, that we continue the important work of protecting the elderly and other vulnerable segments of our citizenry.

Delicate Arch trail.
Length: 3 miles roundtrip
Difficulty: Moderate
Description: Delicate Arch is the most recognizable arch in Arches National Park, and perhaps anywhere in the world. It also happens to be located along one of the most dynamic hiking trails within Arches National Park. More than 480 feet above the parking lot and trailhead in the valley below, Delicate Arch is hidden in a bowl at the top of one of the park’s famous sandstone fins. Delicate Arch is freestanding, and magnificently alone in the natural sandstone bowl, standing out against the multitude of horizontal planes around it. The arch was once part of the upper section of the fin, until erosion took its toll upon the sandstone throughout the years, and now Delicate Arch is all that remains of that Entrada sandstone formation.
The Delicate Arch Trailhead is located on the Wolfe Ranch turnoff, which is 11.5 miles up the Arches Entrance Road. The right turn to Delicate Arch is advertised at the turnoff, and the trailhead is on the left side of the road, at the ranch. The trail is rugged and steep, especially near the end as it mounts the sloped side of the sandstone fin. Along the way, visitors will pass a pioneer homestead, Ute Indian petroglyphs, an overgrown streambed, throngs of juniper, a smaller arch, and the famous slickrock for which the Moab area is world-famous.
Delicate Arch Trailhead
The trail starts at a fairly large parking lot off the side of the road, passes the old Wolfe Homestead, and then crosses a bridge over Salt Wash.
Wolfe Ranch
This homestead was built by a disabled Civil War vet, John Wesley Wolfe, in 1888 and inhabited until 1910, when the aging owner moved back to Ohio.
Ute Petroglyphs
This panel of rock art is attributed to the Ute culture. In includes a number of bighorn sheep, horses and dogs.
Frame Arch
Frame Arch is next to invisible when compared with the splendor of Delicate Arch just around the corner; most hikers barely even recognize the arch on its own merits. However, Frame Arch is famous for being the perfect window through which to photograph Delicate Arch, and many people use it to frame their shots of its more photogenic sibling, as its name suggests.
Delicate Arch
Delicate Arch has graced many magazine covers, mantle pieces, coffee tables, stamps, license plates, and a variety of other media. It is an international attraction, and has drawn its fair share of abuse over the years, including (now illegal) climbing, and ignorant pyrotechnics.

1920's Silent Movie about a user having problems with her computer and techs come to fix it. This short silent film was produced completely on an iPod Touch 5g. It was recorded and edited all from the device. Imagine what it would take in the 1920's to produce this. Knowing how this was made provides a nice contradiction and alternate perspective to the title, "Technical Difficulties."

The remake of Resident Evil 4 has a pleasant aroma. Capcom’s remake of Resident Evil 4 is far from being a phoned-in cash cow, as it collects (almost) everything that made the original such a standout and refines it for modern tastes. It’s an unusual remake that holds its own as a standalone work.
बैशाख १२, काठमाण्डौं जननिर्वाचित सरकार गठन भएको ३ महिना वितिसक्दापनि महिलाको मुद्दामा सरकार मौन रहँदा स्थानिय महिलाहरु आक्रोशित हुदै दबाब दिनका लागि राजधानी आएका छन् । स्वतस्फुर्त ७५ जिल्लाबाट राजधानी आएका यी महिलाहरुको आक्रोश रोकिने अवस्थामा छैन । न्याय नपाएसम्म जिल्ला नफर्कने अडान उनीहरुको छ । यसै बीच यीनै स्थानिय मानवअधिकार रक्षक महिलाहरुको उत्साहको निष्कर्ष स्वरुप शुक्रबार राजधानीमा महिलामाथि बढ्दो हिंसा ÷यौन हिंसा र न्यायको पहुचमा रहेको असहजता विषयक राष्ट्रिय बहस शुरु भएको छ ।
राष्ट्रिय महिला आयोग, महिला मानवअधिकार रक्षकहरुको राष्ट्रिय सञ्जाल, ओरेक नेपाल र बलात्कार विरुद्ध राष्ट्रिय अभियानद्वारा संयुक्त रुपमा आयोजित राष्ट्रि««य बहस कार्यक्रममा बजाङ जिल्लाको जयन्ती जोशी भन्नुहुन्छ.,“ यौन हिंसाको विषयमा न्यायका लागि स्थानिय निकायको सहयोग छैन । थप त्यस्ता निकायले पिडकलाई मुक्त गर्न पैसा लिएको अवस्था छ । त्यसैले स्थानिय निकायको मानसिकतामा परिवर्तन गर्न आवश्यक छ ।” उहाँ थप्नुहुन्छ., “स्थानिय स्तरमा महिला मुद्दाका विषयमा सहयोगको अवस्था देखिदैन र अर्कोतर्फ राज्य मौन रहदा हामीलाई न्यायका लागि दबाब दिन केन्द्रसम्म आउन बाध्य हुनुपरेको हो ।”
कार्यक्रममा महिला मानव अधिकार रक्षकहरुको राष्ट्रिय सञ्जालका अध्यक्ष डा रेणु राजभण्डारीले सामाजिक न्यायको लागि लेखाई, सोचाई र सम्पुर्ण संरचनागत परिवर्तनको खाँचो रहेको बताउनु भयो । राजभण्डारी भन्नुहुन्छ ,“अब आश्वासन होइन सम्बन्धित निकायले कार्यान्वयन स्तरमा काम गर्नु जरुरी छ । उहाँले संक्रमणकालिन न्याय प्रणालीलाई सत्यनिरुपण तथा बेपत्ता आयोगसँग मात्र जोडेर हेर्न नहुने बताउनुभयो । संक्रमणकालिन न्यायमा महिला हिंसाका विषयलाई पनि सम्बोधन गर्दै पीडितलाई मात्र नभई पीडितबाट प्रभावित हुने अन्य सदस्यका विषयमा पनि सम्बोधन हुन आवश्यक रहेको उहाँको भनाई छ । उहाँले पछिल्लो समयमा साना साना बालबालिका बलात्कारको चपेटामा परेको बताउँदै अदालतबाट बलात्कार पीडितले न्याय पाउँन कम्तीन वर्षसम्म कुर्नुपर्ने अवस्था रहेको जोड दिनुभयो ।
कार्यक्रममा राष्ट्रिय महिला आयोगका अध्यक्ष शेषचाँद तारा भन्नुहुन्छ, “बलात्कारको घटना वृद्धि हुनुमा महिलासम्बन्धि अपूर्ण कानुन र राजनितिक दलको अहसहयोग मुख्य रहेको देखिन्छ ।” उहाँले घरेलुहिंसाका लागि बनेको ऐन परिमार्जित भइरहेको अवस्थामा रहेको बताउँभयो । साथै विभेदकारी बलात्कार सम्बन्धि कानुनको पनि संशोधन गर्न आवश्यक रहेको बताउँनुभयो ।
त्यस्तै सभासद सारधा पौडेल भन्नुहुन्छ, “ नेपालमा अधिकाशं कानुनमा “वा तर” जस्ता शब्दको प्रयोग गरिएकोेले कानुन प्रभावकारी बनाउन सकिएको छैन । चलखेल गर्ने प्रशस्त ठाउँ रहेकोले पनि अपराधी सजायबाट उम्किरहेको अवस्था छ ।”
कार्यक्रममा युनाइटेड नेशन रेजिडेन्ट कोडिनेटर रन्जना थापाले संक्रमणकालिन न्याय भन्नाले द्वन्द्वकालिन समयमा भएको ज्यादतीको सत्य खोज्नुपर्ने बताउँनुभयो । द्वन्द्वपिडित महिलाको यकिन आकडा नहुँदा महिलाहरुले आन्तरिक राहतबाट लाभ लिन नसकेको अवस्था रहेको भनाई छ । महिलाको दृष्टिकोणबाट संक्रमणकालिन न्यायलाई द्वन्द्व पिडित र द्वन्द्व प्रभावित दुवै पक्षबाट हेर्न आवश्यक रहेको पनि कोडिनेटर थापाको धारणा छ ।
साथै राष्टिय बहसमा यौनिक हिंसा तथा बलात्कार विरुद्धको अभियानको मागहरु सम्बोधन हुनुपर्नेमा जोड दिइएको छ । अभियानका मागमा हालको विभेदपुर्ण कानुनमा संशोधन गर्नुपर्ने ,द«तन्याय प्रणालीको गठन बाट प्रभावितसँग सम्बन्धित सबै घटनाहरुको अविलम्ब फैसला गरिनुपर्ने ,बलात्कारसम्बन्धि अनुसन्धान प्रक्रियालाई प्रभावकारी बनाउन निर्देशिका निर्माण र कार्यन्वयन गर्नुपर्ने ,बलात्कार पिडित÷प्रभावितमाथि विभेद गर्नेलाई सामाजिक अपराधी ब्याख्या गर्दै कानुनको निमार्ण गर्नुपर्ने लगायतका छन्. । साथै संयुक्त राष्ट्रिय संघीय प्रस्ताव नं १३२५ र १८२० का प्रावधानहरुलाई कार्यन्वयन गर्दै द्वन्द्वकालिन यौन हिंसा पिडितहरुको मानवअधिकारको सुनिश्चितताको आधार निर्माण गर्नुपर्ने पनि रहेको छ ।

My greeting is a nod to the difficulty I have in synthesis, synchronizing and simply writing up a few details on a daily basis sometimes. Diary keeping is not my strong point I now realize. It is also a record of almost the only apparent blooms at the moment are the hyacinth. At times, especially with the short days I am lucky to catch a foto to attach the day to. This one has been grasped from the jaws of dusk (and flash). Hyacinth feels like a bit of a cheat but everywhere I see a number of versions of this family in bloom... all pale coloured. Noticed the white flowers of a non-stinging nettle two days back. Dandelion resources becoming noticeably more difficult to find. One healthy big patch of last resort appears to have been treated with a general herbicide and rather than the rich green sward of dandelion and clover with a few thistle has been left tufted and brown... all I expect to manage the thistles.

The exhibition From There to Here explores the hidden history of People with Learning Difficulties in Merseyside and is at the Museum of Liverpool from 2 May to 13 July 2014.
After the difficulty of cutting all those loops in the first iteration, I thought perhaps I could make a simple design of just the "EXP" with the "X" providing the underlying structure.
Pros:
* Much quicker to make.
* The space between the "X" and the "E" looks like a house, and for some reason that pleases me.
Cons:
* It's so simple it starts to seem boring.
* It's still a little lopsided because the P's don't touch - though not as much as Iteration 1.
* Without the loops, it's lost the element of the logo that most resembles a snowflake.
Sadly technical difficulties (no money) mean there is no water in the water features, and the glasshouses are closed.
I have great difficulty composing images for Iron Photographer challenges. Take, for example, the elements of challenge 205:
1 - three similar things
2 - a thing not like the others
3 - shot from ground/floor level
The framing of the challenge has me fixated on things: Thing 1 and Thing 2 (from Dr. Seuss), Thing from the Addams family, Ben Grimm (Thing from the Fantastic Four) and so on. I usually start by looking for the elements in my environment.
First attempt
Here I spotted four things united in purpose (controlling traffic) but separated in form (three cones and one non-cone sign). I added a flagrantly oblivious pedestrian and found an arrangement of elements that is undermined by depth of field. If the background houses and trees had been blurred the elements might have been distinct enough to work. It might be a better image to crop on only the three houses
Every year the Rotary Club of Nelson Bay invites children from St. Dominic - special education centre for children with hearing difficulties in Mayfield NSW - for a couple of hours out on the Bay. Watch the dolphins and have some fun and a saussage sizzle to finish with. The kids had a great time with thanks to the members and friends that provided the boats.
Up on the south downs in Hampshire we spotted this tiny caterpillar in the grass and after much difficulty managed to get this shot but we have no idea what larvae it is.
Please help if you can. Thank you.
The Vought F4U Corsair is an American fighter aircraft utilized primarily by the Navy and Marine Corps. After carrier landing difficulties had been corrected, it quickly became the most capable carrier-based fighter-bomber of World War II. By V-J Day, September 2, 1945, Corsair pilots had amassed an 11:1 kill ratio against enemy aircraft. The aircraft's distinctive inverted gull-wing design allowed ground clearance for the huge, three-bladed Hamilton Standard Hydromatic propeller, which spanned more than 4 meters (13 feet). The Pratt and Whitney R-2800 radial engine and Hydromatic propeller was the largest and one of the most powerful engine-propeller combinations ever flown on a fighter aircraft.
