Lichfield attack in numbers during a Cooke Fields relegation battle with Newbold on Avon in rugby union's Midlands Premier league. After leading 17-3 and 20-6, Lichfield conceded two tries in four minutes to find themselves 20-21 behind by the 70th minute but then secured a 27-21 victory, and guaranteed survival with a game to spare, by crossing in the last minute of normal time. Defeat confirmed Newbold's relegation, along with Longton and Old Halesonians. Attendees at the Lichfield club's annual Ladies Day virtually doubled the crowd.

PANMUNJOM - With weapons at the ready, members of 194th Combat
Sustainment Support Battalion set out at dawn to conduct convoy
live-fire training here, March 25.
The fast-paced exercise exposed Soldiers to many of the real-world
perils found on today's asymmetric battlefield, culminating in a series
of drills designed to hone their skills in reacting to road-side bombs
and enemy small-arms fire.
"These Soldiers have been training for the past six months to prepare
for this day and their hard work is evident in the outstanding
performance I've seen throughout the battalion," said Command Sgt. Maj.
Nichelle S. Fails.
At times gritty and intense, the Soldiers worked in teams to zero in on
enemy targets with their rifles and machine guns.
"This scenario is interesting and very realistic," said Pvt. Jiwoo Kim,
a KATUSA assigned to the battalion.
Pvt. Dylan Florres, a battalion mechanic and one of the day's enemy
combatant role-players, sees the training as realistic and a good way to
build unit cohesion. "What we are doing is basically helping Soldiers
learn how to train safely and work as a team," he said.
"Everybody is highly motivated and ready to fight," said Chief Warrant
Officer 4 Joseph Williams, HHC, 194th Combat Support Sustainment
Battalion, safety officer. "Taking care of our Soldiers is very
important, we don't want any injuries. That's why we do risk assessments
and go over all of the details to make this a very safe, yet realistic,
training environment."
Master Sgt. Kenneth Ashley, the day's pyrotechnics NCO, described the
training as important in building teamwork within the battalion. "Here
in Korea and in places like Iraq and Afghanistan, we need to make sure
our Soldiers know how to react under fire and to ensure they are
prepared for anything the enemy throws at them."

Canadian Paralympians, including Chantal Petitclerc, met with Minister Peter Fassbender today at the Richmond Oval as part of a Canadian Tour to support Paralympic Sport ahead of the Rio 2016 Games. The event was organized by the Canadian Paralympic Committee and the Canadian Wheelchair Sports Association, and included a roster announcement for Canada’s Wheelchair Rugby team.
Recast is stealing in my eyes. Artists spend too much time and effort to create these wonderful works for someone to copy them!!

Manchester City Old Boys took on a Victim Support team – made up of police officers, firefighters, probation workers, New Charter staff and others - on Saturday, 10 May 2014.
The event raised funds for Victim Support.
Local boxing legend Ricky Hatton turned out for the Victim Support team.
The two teams played for the Linzi Ashton Memorial Cup at Hyde United’s Ewen Fields ground. Linzi Ashton’s mother Philomena McMahon presented the trophy.
The City Old Boys team contained former club stars such as Peter Barnes and Asa Hartford.
The City team ran out 10-8 winners.
Linzi Ashton was murdered by her partner in 2013.

Shown here is a roller support (bearer) used to ensure that the inking rollers remain at .918 as they transverse the bed. Two are used, one on either side of the form, positioned near the ends of the rollers. The use of additional bearers was commonplace when furnishing reproduction proofs and Vandercook recommended them. The bearer mark was printed with the specimen.
These are 18-pt brass bar weld (full-face) rule obtained from Caslon Limited (UK). These run the full printable length of the bed of a Vandercook SP-15. They support here two Bunting Magnetic Cerface Flat Bases. Shown also is Resalite plastic furniture.
The supports are usually rounded at the surface edge ends to prevent roller nicking. To prevent wear on the supports the tympan is usually cut back.
There was an officially organized support demo for all those that like the idea but for various reasons could not join in the action itself, or didn't feel comfortable joining such a civil disobedient action.

FORT BRAGG, N.C. --- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District completed this $11 million Training Support Center in April 2011, which serves as a central location for all Army training aids, products and devices on Fort Bragg. Additionally, the 118,700 square-foot facility includes 12 training rooms where Soldiers use advanced video gaming technology for virtual weapons training. The sophisticated technology mimics real world battlefield scenarios and provides Soldiers with useful feedback for improving their accuracy and precision in weapons firing. With construction performed by North Carolina-based prime contractor Osborne Company, this project is the first warehouse facility of its type in the Army. It will serve as a prototype for similar facilities at other major Army installations worldwide. Pictured: Karl Vanstavoren. USACE photo by Tracy Robillard.
On Saturday 8th August 2015 hundreds of people travelled from all over the country to surround Yarl's Wood Detention Centre and demand the closure of the remote Immigration Removal Centre located in Bedfordshire. There have been reports of poor conditions and bad treatment of those who have been detained in the centre often indefinitely, with no clear indication of how long they will remain imprisoned within the heavily fenced building, situated in the middle of nowhere.
Yarl's Wood is specifically for women and adult family groups. On their website the following words can be found: "Respect, Support, Commitment. That's our promise."
Yet this is a far cry from what those detained on the other side of the fence experience. We heard from women who were detained, who told us of poor healthcare and conditions, women on valid visas being detained and a feeling of fear and suffering.
On observe quand on y regarde de près une foule de déformations des composantes de la structure. Lorsque l'on comprend bien la façon dont déforment les structures sollicitées avec des charges qui dépassent la résistance élastique des matériaux on est capable de relier ces défauts à une défaillance systémique lors de la conception et de négligences soutenues tout au long de son existence. On ignorait beaucoup de choses mais on ne fouillait pas les questions. comme ingénieur je suis persuadé que si j'avais vécu à l'époque j'aurais de façon responsable réalisé des modèles et maquettes et examiné leurs comportements aux efforts. Hors de tout doute ce pont à depuis plus de dix ans débuté un flambage en renversement latéral. Remarquez qu'à la lecture de très nombreux rapports d'ingénieurs certains de très grand renom je semble avoir été le tout premier à décrire cette situation problématique. Je peux donc comprendre qu'on m'ignore encore mais ma reconnaissance ne saurait beaucoup tarder. Je suis aussi très curieux de constater comment les multiples autorités du domaine impliquées vont gérer la situation. La limite élastique de la structure y est manifestement dépassée . Il y reste "latéralement" je crois plus ou moins 20% de marge de sécurité du métal. Mais comme dans bien des domaines la loi de la nature et de la gravité trouve le chemin de la plus grande faiblesse. On a présentement recours à de la mitigation en interdisant les camions en réduisant la taille des convois et ralentissant les vitesses des trains de vrac. On le ra-bidouille exactement selon les découvertes faites d'après mes observations. J'en suis à penser qu'il serait même obligatoire de consolider cette structure pour même pouvoir la démolir de façon ordonnée. Et ce serait une véritable bombe technique et médiatique quand on annoncera par bribes l'ensemble des bourdes techniques administratives et aussi politiques autour de ce lien et corridor. Rappelons qu'on a il y a plus de cent ans finalement trouvé le financement nécessaire pour articuler ( rentabiliser) une confédération destinée à soutenir l’exploitation des ressources au profit des financiers de Londres et de leurs sbires héritiers du Family Compact maintenant réfugiés dans les paradis fiscaux.

ADL Enviro 200 YJ09 CVE is normally a regular on Arriva Yorkshire (selby) route 42, but today had failed at York and so was getting some attention from the support crew - using a transit that has clearly seen better days!
The photo shows the tools I used to hold a 2x4 against the ceiling of my garage. I was attaching 2x4s to the ceiling to make it easier to hang things and brace things (like free-standing shelves).
The picture was taken part-way through the process of pressing the board to the ceiling. I was acting alone. Based on something I saw in a magazine, and heavily influenced by my make-it-as-complicated-as-possible philosophy, the method I used was this:
1. Mark location on ceiling for the 2x4 ceiling board (hereafter referred to as "ceiling board").
2. Nail two small string cradles to the ceiling near the ends of the proposed position of the ceiling board. The ceiling board will hang temporarily in these cradles.
3. Insert one end of the ceiling board into one cradle, then the other end into the other cradle. Result: the ceiling board is hanging in the two cradles about two inches (5cm) below the ceiling.
4. Place two clamps within easy reach of each end of the ceiling board. They will be used later.
5. Grab two other boards: a pre-cut board that is almost as long as the floor-to-ceiling distance and a short board. These, clamped together, will act as temporary supports for the ceiling board. Stand on a stool under one end of the ceiling board, holding the two supports together vertically.
6. Keeping the supports pressed together, move the short board upward as far as possible, elevating the end of the ceiling board. Clamp the two supports together. RESULT: the very end of the ceiling board is pressed against the ceiling. The other end of the ceiling board is still lying in its cradle.
7. Repeat the raising process at the other end of the ceiling board. RESULT: this end of the ceiling board is now pressed against the ceiling, but the other end is still a bit loose.
8. Return to the first end of the ceiling board, loosen the clamps, repeat the raising process, and re-clamp the supports. RESULT: this end of the hanging board is tight enough against the ceiling to require no more raising.
9. Return (again) to the second end and repeat the raising process there. RESULT: the ceiling board is pressed tightly enough against the ceiling to allow drilling of pilot holes for the screws that will attach the ceiling board to the ceiling.
10. Drill holes, install screws, remove the hanging cradles and supports.
The process is tedious to say the least. But it worked: I attached four 2x4s to the ceiling in this manner. After this work was finished I realized I could have simplified this process by using my stepladders as bases for holding the 2x4s in place. One can buy devices called "third hands" (often used by carpenters and drywall installers) to hold things in place, but I am too cheap to shell out $50 for a tool that gets little use.
I am in a rare fit of industriousness in the garage. That's why I've been inactive on Flickr lately. The goal is to create a better working environment on my side of the garage and enough additional storage space that we can park my wife's Jeep in the garage again.

These are the 8 gauge copper wires installed. These will support the reels and keep them off the bottom of the tank. The ends are filed flush with the outside of the tube. This is one of the photos from some film washing tanks. I finished the first one then began thinking about it and decided to try a second design. This one is with galvanize pipe instead of copper so that is cheaper, they are still over $25 to build though.

DOULAS by the BAY works with couples to identify what type of support they need. As postpartum doulas our first priority is to insure that the new mother is well rested and relaxed, and to assist her with breastfeeding and bonding with her baby. We bring nurturing and care to the new family, and try to lighten the load that new parents inevitably feel.
