stood for Love U Sumners.
She had killed all those women because they had spurned her advances. She wrote of how she’d selected them because of their resemblance to the Agent and she’d approached them all seeking what she couldn’t have with the woman whose house she cleaned twice a week.
Morgan reread the passage concerning the woman Kathryn discovered in her lab.
I’m done with the chores and I sit at her desk, staring at the picture of her with that woman. Thy’re smiling, unaware of the photographer. I wish it were me she was holding like that, me she was smiling down on, me she looked like she wanted to kiss. For three years I’ve cleaned this house, for three years I’ve longed to be the one to share her bed.
The woman in the picture is gone now; I don’t know why she keeps it here. She should throw the picture away and notice me. I don’t know what else I can do to get her attention. I’ve left flowers for her; I’ve bought her new towels, made homemade bread for her. Bought her expensive bottles of wine. I’ve always made sure her clothes were pressed, even though she never asked me to. She never notices all the little things I do for her that lovers do.
Tonight I sat at The Swamp; Morgan came here a lot when the woman left her. I followed her here on several occasions but she never noticed me. She sat at the bar with that gay friend of her, the one that hosts the benefits every year. They would talk and drink beer and then she would go home alone. If only she would have asked me to go with her. Never, she never asked. Tonight I sit here alone again. She has someone else now, a little blond thing. I saw her having dinner with Morgan last night. I followed them through the grocery store later, then back to Morgan’s. I saw her park the truck in the garage and then I went home alone.
A woman walked into the bar and from a distance she could be Morgan! My heart soared as I saw her take a seat at the bar. I watched for an hour as she drank a few beers and looked around. She was alone, like me. I walked over and asked if I could buy her a drink. She nodded and I took the empty stool beside her. She shook my hand and introduced herself as Meredith Stanley. I thought to myself that it was perfect. She had the same initials as Morgan and the fates must be smiling down on me. We talked for a while and watched the football game on the television behind the bar. I could tell she was ready to leave and I walked outside with her.
When we got to my car  have a few more drinks. She looked disgusted with me. She said she thought I was straight and that she wasn’t interested in queers. I asked her what she was dong in a gay bar and she said she hadn’t realized it was until she was inside. She was new to the island, only there for a summer job and had wanted a beer, nothing more. She turned and walked away from me and it was like something inside me snapped. I was so full of rage and hurt. How dare she dismiss me like that. How dare she look so much like my Morgan and walk away from me. I had to have her!
I followed her from the bar, staying a fair distance behind her. She parked at the Bayside Motel and I waited until she was almost to the door before getting out of my car. I had a plan! Morgan hadn’t answered the notes I’d left for her, she’d been too wrapped up in the case she was working on, too busy tracking a serial killer to worry about answering me. Well, I’d show her, I’d give her something to work on a little closer to home. I pulled the blond wig out of the glove compartment, I didn’t remember why I bought it, but I was glad now to have it there. I hefted a rock from the flowerbeds beside the drive of the motel and as Meredith slid her key into the knob I struck her with all the rage I had inside me.
She slumped to the ground and I drug her back behind the bushes lining the front and side of the shabby motel. I hurried through the darkness to my car and pulled up alongside her body. She was much bigger than I thought and it took me a few minutes longer than I planned to get her into the trunk. Finally she was settled against the spare tire and I slammed the lid and drove away.
I could hear her back there as I drove to Morgan’s house. Hear her pitiful pleas for help. Hear her begging for her life. She knew. She knew I was going to kill her. I drove the car past Morgan’s and doubled back on foot. The house was dark and silent. I keyed in the number for the alarm and used my key to open the patio door. Quietly I opened the door to the garage. I spotted the roll of plastic Morgan kept for painting and carried it into the house. I left as quietly as I came and I knew Morgan hadn’t awakened.
I walked back through the woods to the car. Meredith was still pleading for her life and I knew I was going to have to subdue her again. I’d kept the rock from the motel and had it in my hand as I opened the trunk. She lunged for me, but I was quicker. I slammed the trunk down on her head and she fell forward onto the ground. Quickly I smashed the rock down on her again and again until she was limp. I unrolled the plastic and laid her on top of it. It was a long walk back to the lab and dragging the dead weight behind me made the journey seem longer.
I used the jack handle from my car to pry open the door to the lab after I cut the wires for the alarm. Morgan hadn’t given me the code, saying the lab wasn’t part of my job and she didn’t want me in there. Well tonight the lab was going to be open to me!
Kathryn waited on the porch until the Teal F150 came to a stop in the driveway. Grinning as she recognized Tracey’s new truck, she vaulted off the deck and into her best friend’s waiting arms.
“I’m so glad to see you,” Kathryn beamed, hugging the doctor a second time. “I’m hearing all these rumors.”
Tracey laughed. “Do I want to know?”
“Well,” Kathryn remarked, “You said you were going home to turn things over to your partners so you could spend a little more time out here with me, but I hear that it’s more of a permanent arrangement now.” She grinned.
Tracey put her arm around her friend and they walked up the stairs and into Morgan’s kitchen.
“Tell you what, for something cold to drink I might be enticed to spill the beans.”
Kathryn pulled open the refrigerator and grabbed a bottle of spring water. Tracey accepted it gratefully and climbed up on one of the barstools.
“Thanks babe.” She squeezed Kathryn’s hand. “First things first, I haven’t seen you in a month and I want to know how you’re doing.”
I’m doing great,” Kathryn answered. “I’ll fill you in, I promise, but we had a deal.” She motioned towards the bottle of water and Tracey laughed.
“Okay, okay, I give.” She took a long drink before continuing. “Well, as you know, I came out here to visit you on my vacation but my time was just about up when you ended up in the hospital and I figured that if I flew home and got someone to cover for me, I could stay for another couple of weeks, keep an eye on your recovery.” Tracey finished her drink and toyed absently with the plastic cap.
“I certainly didn’t expect to be performing brain surgery on my best friend and falling in love was not even on my list of possibilities, but…” She smiled. “I’ve spent a lot of my life planning for the future, I’ve never been much of a spontaneous person, but these last few weeks here made me re-evaluate my priorities somewhat.” Tracey looked over at her best friend. “I almost lost you, and I don’t know what I would have done if that bullet had been even a few centimeters closer…” She trailed off, and Kathryn put her hand on the doctor’s shoulder. Tracey took a deep breath.
“I realized that life is short and that sometimes, there are things you know are right, things you might not have planned, but they come into your life and you know that you might be missing something wonderful if you don’t give


Global leaders to attend World Energy Forum
NEW YORK, August 25, 2016
M 19-22.
“There is nothing more critical to our future and security than access to energy. It’s the most important issue of our time and impacts all nations and all peoples,” said Dr Harold HyunSuk Oh, chairman of the World Energy Forum.
“As the best recognised and most respected platform for energy collaboration, the World Energy Forum offers global leaders in government, industry and academia the ability to share ideas, find solutions and take action on this important issue effecting humanity.”
Historically held every four years, the forum follows the very successful World Energy Forum 2012 in Dubai.
In response to urgent world energy issues and calls from many heads of state and energy ministers, the World Energy Forum will now convene annually, rotating national host cities each year. The US was selected following encouragement from the US government and the UN, said a statement.
The forum’s workshops and sessions were developed by energy experts and includes leading organisations, executives, academics, media, and government officials.
Session topics focus on oil, coal, natural gas, solar, wind, biofuels, nuclear energy, commercial and infrastructural development, water, finance, security, efficiency, transportation, corporate sustainability, electricity markets, and energy transit’s role in providing universal energy access to all. Special sessions will focus on energy crises impacting indigenous peoples and landlocked nations as well as increasing women’s engagement in sustainable energy.
An exhibition featuring about 150 companies will also be held as part of the forum. - TradeArabia News Service

With this understanding, I would like to bring to the forefront another idea of privilege. While we have the privilege to be in medical school and so many of us have had the blessing of a privileged upbringing, our truest privilege is to be trusted. Due to our standing and education, we are trusted by patients with the most intimate details of their lives often in the darkest moments of their existence. To borrow from a mentor, “they are not privileged to see us, it is our privilege to see them.” Our patients do not owe us honesty, cooperation, or pleasantries. It is certainly nice to be thanked and appreciated, but ultimatelyaccording to our training. Our greatest privilege is to be trusted to care for them. And with that privilege comes an even greater responsibility to consider the humanity of every patient. We cannot abandon our privilege to care when patients are unable to help themselves. We cannot abandon our role as physicians. After the many challenging patients we had today from complex backgrounds, I was reminded that the most challenging patients are often the patients in need of the most help. To recall the words of Jesus as he spokee patients who are the most physically sick are sometimes the people who need the deepest care. It is easy to get caught up in all of the medicine and science and forget that we are dealing with human beings.
While I offer no specific fixes to the injustices that ail our society, I hope that in these words I can offer a change in perspective that may just push the conversation in the right direction. To my classmates and my fellow medical students, I implore you to not be owned by your privilege. We must refuse to allow our training, level of education, and socioeconomic status determine the way that we look at the people we interact with on a daily basis. To the healthcare profession, I say we must be better, we must consider what a privilege it is to be trusted and  To my country, I plead with you to not allow your beliefs to cloud

The answer in short is yes. Hormones have an enormous impact on mood, sleep and many other factors that are essential for quality of life. While depression certainly can have a number of emotional and psychological causes, the role of hormones cannot be overlooked. Depression in men is more likely to occur when hormone levels are imbalanced; hormones may both contribute to and cause depression. n.


In observational biomedical research, model misspecification, non-randomized treatment assignment and missingness in the outcome measures contribute to bias the treatment effect estimattatistical approaches to limit the size of such biases. We compared covariates adjustment, propensity score adjustment, matching, Inverse-Probability-of-Treatment Weighting, and more complex approaches that combine ensemble of machine learning algorithms with double robust semiparametric maximum likelihood estimation like the targeted maximum likelihood estimator (TMLE) in terms of bias, standard error and coverage probability. Two scenarios were simulated: (i) with complete data set; (ii) with 20% missingness mechanism on the outcome. Model misspecification and near-positivity violations were addressed. Finally, comparisons were applied to the Italian multicenter retrospective study DApagliflozin Real Word evidence in Type 2 Diabetes (DARWIN-T2D). Preliminary results suggest that in both scenarios TMLE has the lowest bias, even if a slightly larger standard error, in the treatment estimate compared to the classical approaches.

That’s because a host of California governments and nonprofits plan to skip the biannual census of the unsheltered population scheduled for next month, which could mean information last gathered nearly two years ago won’t be updated until 2023. While officials have raised sensible concerns about the safety of the federally required tally, the rush to cancel it has a troubling see-no-evil undercurrent.

« How everyone is marginalized
On this day in 1536, King Henry VIII ordered that Bibles translated into English be placed in every church, a request fulfilled when the Great Bible was made available. On May 6, 1757, the English poet Christopher Smart, deemed insane, was placed into the St. Luke’s hospital for Lunatics in London, where he stayed six years. While confined, he wrote the best cat poem of all time, a fragment of his larger Jubilate Agno called “For I will consider my cat Jeoffrey.” You can (and should) read it here. There is no poem that embodies the catness of cats more than this one.
On May 6, 1877, the great leader Chief Crazy Horse of the Oglala Lakota surrendered to U.S. troops in Nebraska. He was bayoneted to death by one of his guards that same year. On this date in 1889. And in 1915, Babe Ruth, a pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, poled his first home run. He was perhaps the greatest hitting pitcher of all time. On this day in 1937, the Germanand immediately burned to a crisp while trying to dock at Lakehurst, New Jersey; 36 people died.

Didn’t I say that? Oy; I’ll change it, thanks.
One can go look at all the stats on Babe Ruth but his pitching and hitting records easily makes him the best ever. Essentially all of his pitching was done in the first third of his career in baseball while playing in Boston. His win / loss was 94/46 with a .671 percentage. He pitched 29 1/3 scoreless innings in the 1918 world series. No need to go over what he did when just hitting for the Yankees.

I found this rather amusing and informative website about French offal https://www.frenchtoday.com/blog/french-food-wine/les-abat-french-offal-organ-variety-meat-dishes. If one doesn’t wish to be served these dubious delicacies, the website instructs you to declare: “‘je ne désire pas manger d’abats’ and if this includes liver, add: “même pas de foie s’il vous plaît” (not even liver please).”
Crepe Suzette is covered with a buttery sauce called beurre Suzette (“butter Suzette”). There is a commune by that name in Southern France, so I suspect it is named after the place, not a person.
Consistently, Steinbeck inverts traditional Christian symbolism turning it inside out and upside down so that all the Biblical imagery is used in decidedly unorthodox ways.
In fact there was a person called Suzette among the entourage of the Prince of Wales. At Monte Carlo’s Café de Paris the chef Henri Charpentier served the prince’s party the first ever “Crepes Suzette” in 1895

Wildfires Blaze Through Arizona Forests
Firefighters in Eastern Arizona have started to make progress in battling the wildfires that have ripped unchecked through thousands of acres of forests over the past two weeks.
Nearly 10,000 residents have fled the fires which have destroyed at least 29 homes and 35 other buildings in the area. Peter O'Dowd of member station KJZZ joins us. Thanks very much for being with us, Peter.
PETER O'DOWD: Thanks for having me.
ODOWD: Today its at six percent contained. So firefighters are optimistic but they say their hold on that six percent is really pretty tenuous, because winds are going to start picking up again. And so, 40 mile per hour wind gusts, firefighters will be facing that today and they really aren't exactly sure what's going to happen when those red flag conditions come back.
SIMON: Six percent still seems very, very low. Are they optimistic because the trend is just in the right direction?
O'DOWD: Well, they are optimistic because they were able to get any containment whatsoever. This fire has been burning since the 29th of May, and for a long time there was zero containment. I mean the fire is more than 600 square miles right now. So in their point of view, even six percent is a really huge deal because it shows that, you know, this fire can be defeated.
One person I spoke to recently said, you know, basically this weekend we want to keep putting numbers on our side of the score board. Were on the board now with six percent. He said we want to keep holding that line and get that containment into the double digits.
SIMON: And Peter, with the fire of the magnitude that you described, do the firefighters have enough equipment? Do they have enough people?
O'DOWD: Oh, will tell you, the firefighters, there are about 3,000 of them out there right now and they're using helicopters, they're using jets, they're using all manner of equipment to start the fires on the perimeter of this huge blaze in order to contain it. They say they have the equipment that they need but their hours are incredibly long. They're working 12 hour shifts. They start their day at 6 AM. They eat 6,000 calories a day to fuel them through and, you know, they work for 14 days at a time before some of them will see a day off.
SIMON: Peter, what can you tell us about people who had to be evacuated? Are they in a position to go back into their homes? How have they been faring?
O'DOWD: Not quite yet. They're not quite allowed to go home. There was some talk that hopefully this weekend some people would be allowed back into the towns. But right now the fire crews say, you know, if we let them back in and the winds pick up today or this weekend and they have to be evacuated again, then it's really disheartening and it also could be dangerous. So until these winds settle down we expect the people to stay into those evacuation centers or wherever they happen to be evacuated. They're pretty pragmatic about it. You know, they understand that firefighters are working as hard as they can. They're also pretty anxious to see what their property looks like.
SIMON: Peter O'Dowd of KJZZ, reporting on the Eastern Arizona fires.
O'DOWD: Thank you.

T vessel is one of the most important commercial questions that the ship buyer and shipyard face when they enter into a shipbuilding contract. Normally the financing of a vessel is divided between the yard and the buyer. How this is shared depends on a number of circumstances, such as:
the market situation
the parties' evaluation and appetite for risk
the financing capabilities of each of the parties
The parties must plan for the possibility that the other party may be unable to perform its obligations. The shipyard must ensure that the buyer is able to meet its payment obligations, be that during construction or on delivery. In order to gain such certainty, the yard may request a guarantee from a bank or more commonly the buyer's parent company, for the performance of the buyer's payment obligations. The yard may also be sufficiently content if it is provided with a binding commitment from the buyer's lenders. However, even where the yard has not obtained such a security, in any event it will have the hull produced and the materials purchased and could then decide to sell these on to another buyer or use them for other projects.
The buyer is in a different position. Any pre-payments made by the buyer must be individually secured in order to have a reasonable expectation of recovering them in case of the shipyard's default or bankruptcy. If this is not the case, the buyeryard and may end up on a long line of unsecured creditors.
Delivery on completion and refund guarantees
An alternative solution is where the parties agree that the title to the vessel under construction and the parts and materials purchased are transferred to the buyer during construction. If properly implemented, this system means that the hull and relevant materials are out of reach of the bankruptcy estate and the shipyard's other creditors in case of bankruptcy. The buyer therefore controls the hull and may finish the construction or sell the hull to other parties. Costs involved with refund guarantees may be taken out of the construction budget and contract price and there is no need to lock in capital to secure the refund guarantees.
First and foremost, the rights of the buyer need to be sufficiently secured. The buyer's ownership may need to be registered. Further, such registration may not cover all materials belonging to the vessel and the buyer may need to obtain a floating charge or pledge over the yard's machinery and plant to ensure that materials and parts belong to him or her. Materials may have been partly paid for but not delivered to the yard and the buyer may therefore also need a right to step into the yard's subcontracts. Rights and access to other materials (eg, drawings) should also be ensured.
The buyer and shipyard must also constantly and thoroughly monitor and value the progress of the project to ensure that there is a balance between the level of pre-payment made and the value of the parts produced and owned by the buyer, which may be difficult in practice. Planning, engineering and purchases at the beginning of the project are not normally linked to a corresponding part that has been constructed.
Delivery on completion coupled with refund guarantees is regarded to be the default solution in most standard shipbuilding contracts as it is a simple, widely understood and fairly balanced solution. However, there may be reasons to deviate and elect for progressive title transfer where this can be tailor-made to suit the demands of a particular project.

I agree wholeheartedly. And to think, it was free!
I know I paid something for it. Like $6 or something. It's just funny, there was no way I was going to challenge my belief in the supremacy of OK Computer in 2007. Maybe now that I'm older I get the album in a way I didn't then. I liked it, but I didn't get the feels from it that I do now.
I've been listening to In Rainbows by Radiohead a lot lately. I think I've finally come to terms that it's their best album. Almost perfection.
In Rainbows is fantastic. I don't think I appreciated it even 1/5 the morning I downloaded it (definitely remember I paid 10 bucks for it even though I definitely didn't have money to throw around) as much as I do now. And of course I've spent $ on that album over and over and over since then on vinyls, Radiohead shows, etc.

I ended up paying 10 for it, but only afterwards take it was 10 pounds, not dollars.
  I deleted them both and things got much better in the world.
And now Donald Trump is president. Coincidence? Great job.
I really liked that animal collective album. Still listen to it occasionally.

Is Mark Grace OK?
With the extra time on my hands, I have been catching up on a lot of what I've missed over the past decade. Kendrick Lamar is amazing. To Pimp a Butterfly and good kid, M.A.A.D city are classic hip-hop albums. Also, listening to the Dissect podcast season on Kendrick Lamar was really interesting.
To Pimp a Butterfly is easily the better album. The thing about both is that they are great as albums, not just a collection of songs. Kendrick is great at telling a narrative arc in both of these albums. I even think some of the songs that seem more mediocre at first listen, end up being some of the better songs when viewed in the context of the albums narrative.
I'm listening to a Cheap Trick greatest hits compilation.
These guys made it, but they should have been even more popular than they were.

Learn to become a pro when it comes to cooking meat by checking out these cooking tips and tricks along with food safety guidelines from The Ranch.
Cooking Tips and Tricks - Table of Contents
When cooking beef, cooking times and temperatures may vary based on the your method of preparation, the size of the cut and your desired degree of doneness.
Always test for doneness using a digital meat thermometer.
125°F Rare – cool red center
135°F Medium Rare – warm red center
145°F Medium – warm pink center
150°F Medium Well – slightly pink center
160°F Well Done – little or no pink
When roasting, remove from heat when thermometer registers 5 to 10°F lower than your desired doneness. Then let your roast rest. the temperature will continue to rise while resting.
When grilling, braising or broiling steaks and burgers remove them from heat when thermometer registers 5°F lower than desired degree of doneness. Rest your steaks while the temperature continues to rise.
The USDA recommends steaks and roasts be cooked to 145°F (medium) and then rested for at least 3 minutes. To ensure food safety, ground beef should be cooked to a minimum of 160°F (well done). Be sure to check with a digital meat thermometer, as color alone is not a foolproof indicator.
Grilling is a fast and easy way to cook beef. By applying high heat directly to the surface of the beef it sears the outside, thus creating a browned, flavorful crust.
From searing on a hot grill to resting and flipping, learn how to become a grilling pro with these 7 Easy Tips to become a Steak Grill Master.
Learn to Make Diamond Grill Marks
Preheat your grill until very hot (about 500-550°F)
Once the meat has seared and juices begin to rise to the top, turn steaks clockwise, with the ends at 2 and 8 o’clock.
After 1 to 2 minutes, flip steaks over and cook until they reach your desired degree of doneness. Use a digital meat thermometer to ensure food safety.
Remove steaks from grill and allow to rest on a clean plate for approximately 5 minutes.
Pan searing is an excellent alternative to grilling steak. High heat creates a seared crust that seals in juices and cooks from the outside in. It is an ideal cooking method for thin-sliced steak or other thin cuts of beef. Pan searing should be done in a heavy-bottomed pan, such as cast iron, over medium to high heat.
To pan sear/sauté a steak, follow these guidelines:
Preheat a large pan over medium-high heat.
Season steak with salt and pepper, or your desired seasoning.
Next, add a small amount of oil to the pan and heat. When the oil shimmers, use tongs to gently place steaks in the pan (make sure to leave some room between steaks).
Once juices begin to rise to the surface of the meat, about 2-3 minutes, flips steaks with tongs. Cook steaks for another couple minutes and then check doneness with an instant-read thermometer. When steaks have reached your desired doneness (130°F for medium-rare), remove from the pan and allow to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
Watch this video for Step-By-Step Instructions on how to sauté beef.
Pan roasting is a great method for thicker steaks (such as the ribeye and porterhouse) as well as roasts. In contrast to pan searing, this method involves searing the beef in a pan on a stove, then putting it into the oven to gently cook the steak throughout.
To pan roast steaks, follow these guidelines:
Next, preheat an oven-proof pan on high heat and add a thing layer of oil. Heat until oil begins to shimmer.
Gently add steaks to the pan without overcrowding. Sear for about 2 minutes, then flip steaks with tongs and sear the other side for an additional 2 minutes.
Place pan in the preheated oven for 5 to 7 minutes, or until steaks reach your desired doneness (130°F for medium-rare).
Remove pan from oven and let steaks rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

According to the USDA, the safe internal cooking temperature for pork is 145°F
Smoking is a great cooking method for pork chops, pork tenderloin and other large cuts such as pork shoulder, pork loin, fresh ham, and ribs.
There are 3 methods of smoking meat; cold smoking, smoke roasting, or hot smoking. Hot smoking is the most common and exposes the meat to heat as well as smoke, cooking it and giving it a great flavor at the same time.
Follow this easy guide to help you smoke pork like a pro.

Before Cooking – bring lamb to room temperature
After Cooking – allow lamb to rest for 3 minutes
Always cut lamb against the grain
Don’t overcook – Use a digital meat thermometer
Medium Rare – 145°F
Well Done – 170°F
Since the internal temperature of cooked meat will rise, pull lamb from heat when it is 10 degrees lower than your desired doneness and let rest for 3 minutes.
Grilling is a great way to quickly cook lamb with minimal cleanup. When grilling lamb, follow these simple tips:
As a general rule, it’s best to keep the lid off your grill for cuts that cook quickly, such as chops, burgers and kabobs. This allows you to easily monitor doneness.
Check doneness using a digital meat thermometer
Remove lamb from the grill when it is 10°F less than your desired internal temperature
When braising, the meat is browned in fat then tightly covered and cooked slowly in a small amount of liquid. By cooking for a long period of time at low heat, the meat develops flavor and becomes more tender. Braising can be done on the stovetop, as well as in the oven or in a slow cooker. A tight fitting lid is key to preventing the liquid from evaporating. Because Lamb should and shank tend to be less tender, they are the best cuts of meat for braising and stewing.
When braising lamb, follow these simple tips:
Be sure to sear the lamb on all sides until browned before adding braising liquid
The proper determination for doneness is tenderness, not temperature
Lamb is done when the meat is fork tender
When oven-roasting lamb, the meat is cooked uncovered in order to produce an exterior that is well browned with a moist and juicy interior. Roasting is best with fairly tender cuts of lamb, such as the rack, loin and leg.
When roasting lamb, follow these simple tips:
For a perfect medium-rare, cook 15 to 20 minutes per pound in a 325°F oven
Remove lamb from the oven when it is 5-10 degrees lower than your desired doneness and rest for 3 minutes.
Keep in mind that bone-in leg roasts cook faster than boneless because the bone acts as an insulator.

A lean cut of meat, Bison tends to cook more quickly than Beef. In general, expect a Bison steak to cook one-third faster than the same beef steak.
Ground bison meat should be cooked to an internal temperature of at least 160°F and the juices should be clear, not red. Roasts and steaks should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145° F (medium rare) or 160°F (medium).
When roasting bison, the oven should be set at around 275°F. Cooking times should be similar to the time you would cook a comparable cut of beef.

Ada Blackjack: The Woman Who Survived Against All Odds in a Freezing Arctic Island
BY Dipanjana Mukherjee • March 6, 2020

expedition. This is her story of courage, endurance and survival which lasted over two years.
The Blackjacks: Luck was never on their side
At the young age of sixteen, Ada met her husband Jack Blackjack, a local dog musher. The young couple soon gave birth to three children. But as luck would have it, two out of their three offspring did not survive. The pain of losing their children was unbearable, and it soon affected the once happy couple. This was followed with Jack’s abandonment of Ada and their only living child, five-year-old Bennet on the Seward Peninsula in 1921. A destitute Ada, thus, began her journey. She walked about forty miles back to Nome, Alaska, her hometown, with her young son.
When Bennet would get too tired, she carried him. Soon, Bennet got afflicted with tuberculosis, and Ada could not provide enough resources that would nurse him back to health. It was at that time when she heard about an expedition on its way to Wrangel Island looking for a local seamstress fluent in English. Vowing to earn enough for her son, Ada temporarily left her son in an orphanage and joined the expedition.
Wrangel Island is situated in the Arctic Ocean, about a hundred miles north of the Siberian coast, and over two hundred and fifty miles from Alaska. The Island is literally in the middle of nowhere and is enveloped by unbearable cold. The surrounding water is usually frozen most of the year making passage impossible. The island is desolate and of good proportions, which fell in the eye of a Canadian explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson. He had applied to the Canadian government for possession of the island, but was rejected.
In 1921, he came up with a new plan of claiming the island for Britain. To do that, he planned to send a crew of people to the island to begin preparations. The party included Frederick Maurer, E. Lorne Knight, and Milton Galle. They even considered recruiting an Eskimo family, who would cook and maintain the camp. Although a lot of them were interested, except Ada, nobody showed up. Ada faced a lot of misgivings, which included the fact that she was being accompanied by a party of Alaskan Natives.

On 6th September 1921, the crew set sail with six months of supplies, unaware of the disaster that would ensue. A ten-day journey later, the crew reached Wrangel Island and immediately raised the British flag, claiming the land under King George. Life on the island fell into a routine of hunting, cooking, building furniture, signing each day off with jokes and hymns. They set up meteorological instruments, and all seemed convenient except one aspect- there were not enough animals to hunt and feed on.
The camp at Wrangel Island. (Internet Archive)
The initial plan was that by the upcoming summer a supply ship would replenish their limited supplies. But an icy storm in June froze the ocean around the island, hindering access by ships. Back in Alaska, however, Stefansson could not raise enough money for a relief ship. It was not until August when one, named Teddy Bear, embarked on the journey but was a failure. The men on the island had foresight enough to ration their supplies. They had to relocate because they had used all the surrounding wood, fed on whatever they found, and soon one by one the men began to drop like flies.
The first to succumb to ill health was Knight, whom Blackjack tried to nurse back to health. Meanwhile, on January 29, the others left to find help promising to be back, but they never did. Knight eventually died on June 22nd. ,” reported The World magazine in 1927.
Ada Blackjack: A survivor
It was not until August 1923 when Ada finally saw the light of day. “I must stay alive,” Blackjack recalled later, was the thought which kept her going despite the adversities. She used Knight’s rifle to shoot seals to make shoe soles, read Bible, and walked on the beach to keep going through her day. She was a feeble and shy little woman, terrified of polar bears, but with unimaginable tenacity. In the three months, after the death and disappearance of her companions, she was alone and learnt how to shoot birds, trap white foxes, lookout for polar bears, crafted a skin boat out of driftwood and so much more. She threw herself in the need to survive for her son.

This remarkable story of Ada’s two-year stay in the Arctic is inscribed in time as a book by Jennifer Niven by the name of AThe book documents in detail the struggle the crew underwent on the expedition in Wrangel Island due to a wilful negligent venture organized by Stefansson. As it turns out, the island had been under Russian occupation since 1916, all along the time the crew lived there. It is now a Russian wildlife refuge.

“Fools Pools” Swim School re-opened in July 2010 with the main pool under cover inside a state of the art, European designed enclosure.  The enclosure is fully insulated, as well as being fully retractable, allowing the pool to be either indoor or outdoor depending on the season.  These types of enclosures are used in Europe in snow conditions, so are more than adequate for NZ conditions!
Fools Pools Swim School is a registered Quality Swim School with Swimming NZ.  All our teachers go through training with Swimming NZ or a similar education provider, as well as induction training at Fools Pools.  We aim to provide a swimming environment that is both supportive and encouraging for our students, where achievable challenges are set so that students gain a real sense of achievement from their efforts.  Our mission is to continue to raise the level of swimming competency in the Muriwai community and surrounding districts.
We encourage you to use this facility, and to respect it!  We believe that everyone has the right to learn to swim and to enjoy the water.  Use it for your own fitness, strength and rehabilitation programs. Come to swimming lessons here if you would like to learn to swim or to increase your skill in the water, or just enjoy the pools for your own peace of mind and wellbeing.  This facility is also an ACC registered vendor for hydro-therapy (water rehabilitation programs), so get a referral from your doctor or physiotherapist if you require water rehabilitation services covered by ACC.
Since Oct 2014 we have been running our main pool using Enviroswim technology.  It’s really like swimming in pure tap water – fantastic for your health, swimming togs last longer, and it feels amazing!
“It provides the best user experience and is a healthy, clean and pure way to bathe and relax. Opposed to traditional
chlorine pools it does not attack the skin, worsen allergies, cause asthma or rot pool clothing, and it is also gentler on the
pool's shell and surrounding landscape. It also ticks all the environmental boxes by reducing chemical usage, consuming less power and enabling the recycling of pool water and backwash without dilution.”

The first half of tonight’sÃ‚Â game felt like an extension of last night’s flop. Then the bats picked up and the pitching stiffened. Somehow, this absurd roster of players pulled it together to beat the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. Better yet, with the victory tonight, the Reds have won 10 of their last 18 games.
Michael Lorenzen worked gingerly through the potent Tigers lineup, giving up only one earned run in six innings.one. Lorenzen’s fastball velocity was 93-95. His breaking ball had good movement. He threw it as a first pitch a lot. His change up kept the Tigers off balance. At times, Lorenzen seemed like he didn’t want to challenge the Tigers hitters and consequently pitched from behind.
Back-to-back home runs by Todd Frazier and Jay Bruce in the top of the fifth inning seemed to fire up the Reds. Those were the first runs the team had scored in 18 innings. Frazier’s shot was a blast to left center, his 19th of the year. Bruce’s ball just slipped over the fence by the right field foul pole. It was Bruce’s 10th of the year, he’s on pace for 26. Bruce also singled and walked, scoring a second run.
Frazier then hit his 20theds ahead 3-2. He’s on pace to hit 51 homers. HeÃ‚Â made a nice defensive play on a bunt in the fifth inning, nailing Jose Iglesias who had dropped down an excellent bunt.
Ryan Mattheus, pitched a clean 7th inning. He’s shut out the opponents in 10 of his last 11 appearances.
James Allen Hoover retired the heart of the Tigers order 1-2-3 in the 8th inning. Hoover hasn’t allowed an earned run in the past 25 appearances, dating back to April 21. The Reds next closer hasn’t allowed home run all year. Aroldis Chapman came in for another nail-biting three-run save
How Dominant is Aroldis Chapman’s Fastball Velocity?
Thanks for taking a good hack at the recap, Steve.
If the Cardinals were in the NBA, would they use the ‘hack a Shaq’ strategy?
They are developing pitchng this season. Between DeSclafani, Lorenzen, Moscot, Iglesias, there are more in AA and A+. Now position players must move up.
What position players ?
Hopefully position players will come with the pending trades of Cueto, Leake, and Chapman.
If I remember correctly Lorenzen wasn’t a high strikeout pitcher in the minors right?
Right, he wasn’t. I looked up his minor league numbers not long ago, so won’t tonight, but it was 6+ Ks per 9 innings, not much.
Still learning to pitch, so maybe that will change. Kiley McDaniel at Fangraphs wrote before the year that Lorenzen is still trying to learn to set up hitters, which would lead to more strikeouts. Not saying it will happen, but with his stuff, we can at least hope he learns to put more people away.
I agree. And when he’s throwing strikes and getting ahead of hitters, he seems in command even when he’s not ringing up the Ks.
K’s or not, the main thing is if Lorenzen can keep runners off the bases.
Well you want Ks because more balls in play mean more chances for the ball to be hit where someone isn’t.
Hoover gives up some hard shots to some very good hitters but he didn’t give up a HR and he didn’t walk anybody. Odds are, if you do that, you’re going to be OK.
I didn’t see the play where DeJesus screwed up in LF, but I MUCH prefer him in the lineup, and in LF, to Schumaker and Boesch.
Agree wholeheartedly. In this injury plagued season with the poorly constructed bench, DeJesus should be in the lineup until big changes occur with this team.
Nice win. That near DP by BP and Negron was a thing of beauty. Go Reds Go.
Yes I was going to comment on that. It really was beautiful, BP’s flip and Suarez’ leap and strong throw to first.
Oops that was Negron’s throw.
OK I only got to see the replay and whoever was announcing said Suarez as well.
I wasn’t able to get the game on mlb.tv, so I listened to Marty and Brantley. They were so ticked off at BHam for getting picked off 2nd that Marty said he was so far off the base that he knew he’d get picked off, as if he was out by 10 feet. They treated the review as an irrelevant bother. They had me all kinds of ticked off at BHam, thinking he’d had another brain fart, like when he fell asleep with his eyes open and was picked off first base by 10 feet in Philly.
So then I watch the video from Tigers tv, and even their broadcasters thought Hamilton was safe and were surprised that the call wasn’t overturned.
The play was close enough for him to get called out not because he was ridiculously far from the base: he was doing his dancing back and forth and Chamberlain caught him making a dance move toward 3rd, with a quick throw.
Not at all smart base running by BHam but Marty & Jeff made it sound worse than it was. I guess this is in the “what else is new” department, but I don’t listen to them that often.
Interestingly, Gose thought he was out. On the slow mo it wasn’t clear whether his foot was over (instead of on) home plate a bit when first sliding into it. Maybe that’s why the replay umps thought the video shots were inconclusive.
The home plate collison rule is confusing, and combined with confusing replay rules, it gets worse. Ausmus was upset in that he thought both that Gose was safe and that Pena had blocked the plate, but could only challenge one of them. Why is that ? If you’re reviewing the play, review the whole thing.
I don’t like the replay reviews at all and I don’t like the “no plate blocking” rule either. It’s completely up to the observer. I don’t like the idea of electronic balls and strikes but I’d be better with it than the judgement calls on replays, especially when it comes to a rule that’s all about the perception of the ruling authority. It looked to me like Pena didn’t block the plate until right before he caught the ball. He also didn’t totally block the plate as there was a sliding lane.
As a former catcher, I LOVE the idea behind the rule. What I don’t like is that the rule has so many areas in it where it is solely in the judgement of the umpire and that umpire may interpret the rule slightly different than the guy reviewing it. They can literally see the same thing and have different opinions on if the rule is violated or not. It either needs to be thoroughly locked down or it needs to be done away with.
Or make the collision rule non-reviewable.
I wondered why it was DeJesus in LF and NegrÃƒÂ³n at SS since NegrÃƒÂ³n has at least marginally more experience at LF and has generally acquitted himself OK in the outfield. Perhaps DeJesus was being auditioned for a bench spot when Byrd returns.
Price talked a lot after DeJesus’ first game in LF about how hard he’s worked at learning LF, starting in spring training. So yeh I think Price has DeJesus in mind for a utlility role next year and wants him to put in time in LF.
I much prefer him to the Reds usual utility veteran.
I glad it did not matter, but it seems like just lack of understanding your strengths, why not get DeJesus out of there after he batted in the 8th. Suarez to SS and Negron the LF would have been the easiest. Could not see the game but there 2 balls hit to DeJesus in the 8th not sure if they were that difficult plays.
I like DeJesus better in LF, but that’s based on only 1 full game (did not see last night). He made a couple of plays that required some range. He’ll make mistakes while learning LF but as we know Schu is also prone to those (on easy ground balls !).
I think one of the reasons is that Price wanted the best IF defense behind Lorenzen and Negron is a better defensive SS than DeJesus.
Hurrah, the Reds 2nd win this season in an AL park. In 2014 they only had 1 win in an AL park. Baby steps.
Speaking of Byrd, Price said on the pregame radio that Byrd will start a minor league rehab tomorrow (Wednesday) and barring any setback will be with the Reds by the weekend or on the road next week at the latest. Fay confirmed this item including the timeline during the 2nd inning Beat Reporter Sound Byte (which along with the Price pregame ditty is why I listen to the broadcast) .
The Reds are 6.0 games out of the 2nd wildcard position, at the back of the pack (along with the Fish & Rox) competing with 9 teams for the 2nd wildcard position. A playoff position is certainly possible, but Byrd coming back and winning the triple crown is also possible.
Rushing Byrd back from a broken hand/wrist is absurd and 3 weeks is certainly rushing him back. There’s also his contract situation the Reds jumped into in making the trade for Byrd. If Byrd comes back for the Pirate’s series, there will be 93 games remaining and Byrd would need to average 4 PA over those 93 games to vest his $8MM option for 2016.
If BC really understands the dynamics of managing payroll and budget for the Reds, then allowing Byrd’s $8MM option to vest would not even be a consideration, not to mention making sure that the option vests. If Byrd’s 2016 option vests, he has absolutely no value prior to the trade deadline and negative value for 2016 that will be dumped into the Reds budget.
This season is toast and not just toast, stale toast. Byrd’s value to the team comes from his 2016 contract not vesting and reestablishing value prior to the trade deadline. Byrd should not be reactivated prior to the series with the Brew Crew on 07/03. That allows suffient time for his injury to fully heal and his minor league rehab to be completed without pushing the recovery. Byrd then has the entire month of July to establish any value at the major league level, prior to the trade deadline, without risking his 2016 vesting kicking in automatically.
Mmmm, stale toast is the best toast.
VICFERRARI asked on the game thread: “I know it is all random, but What is FrazierÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s stats with runners on 3rd and less than 2 outs?” I promised I’d look it up and post it on the recap.
Todd is 2-13 with 1 sac fly, 5 walks, 6 Ks, 6 RBIs in that situation so far in 2015. The 2 hits are a double and a HR. Actually that makes for a healthy OBP and slugging pct. in those 19 appearences. Also the 6 RBIs is an awful lot for 2 hits.
I started looking into how he’s done that and came across his grand slam HR against the Brewers, which he hit with 2 outs, so it doesn’t count here, but is it worth any less because there were 2 outs ? Some say it hardly even counts unless there are 2 outs.
Also came across a 2 run double against the Padres, with runners on 1st and 2nd, none out. Isn’t that just as good as 2 run double with runners on 1st and 3rd, none out ?
I decided it wasn’t worth digging any further.
So those are the facts and my conclusion is they don’t tell you much.
With a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs you’d like to see fewer Ks, but this is a small sample and if there’s anything to it, Todd will adjust. Tonight in the bases loaded situation he was thrown nothing but sliders, and we’ve seen that before. Pitchers just won’t throw him a hittable fast ball when he can do that much damage (4 runs in this case).
It goes without saying that Todd has blossomed into one of the game’s best power hitters and all around players, that he should be the NL All Star starting 3rd baseman, etc.
Thanks, I have been waiting all night for this…just kidding cannot sleep some nights, I guess one irrationally thinks every batter should be able to get a SF with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs, so only 3 successful AB’s (2 hits and SF out of 19 seems bad) with the 5 walks- but when you look at the OPS it is probably in the .800 range which sounds pretty solid- totally see your point about the value of the other situations.
Yes for getting a run in from 3rd with less than 2 out, the average rate of success is about 50%. The success rate state for players for the season is out there somewhere, one year I followed it on a regular basis for the Reds. Couldn’t find it last night at baseball-reference.com. Someone here would know where to find it.
The year I followed it (2011 I think), Votto had almost a 90% success rate, Ryan Hanigan was at 50%, and everyone else was under, as it seemed.
Is Frazier pressing in those situations ? Possibly, I just found the limited data inconclusive. As I mentioned, they pitch him differently. If I were the hitting coach and thought he was pressing, I’d just tell him, forget about the base runners, just take the same approach as with nobody on.
I agree with those who poo-poo BARISP because it’s talked about way too much and it can be a misleading measure. But every major league pitcher and hitter I’ve ever heard talk about it says that pitching/hitting with a runner in scoring position is a different animal from other situations.
The players saying it is a “different animal” is why they play games for a living and did not get a mathematics degree from MIT.
I’m not defending the obsession with avg w/risp. But you can’t dismiss the player’s thoughts on this. It’s kind of like the placebo effect. If you think it matters, then it does. Look at all the superstitions that baseball players have. Logically, wearing the same socks for a week shouldn’t make you a better hitter. But if you firmly believe that it does, then it could actually make you perform better because of being more confident and relaxed.
It certainly feels different and it’s hard to ignore it. I think MLB players, in general, do well under stress, so I feel it probably matters to them a lot less. The feeling is most certainly different though and I did often change my approach in those sorts of situations. Sometimes it worked out, sometimes it didn’t.
Tstarting NL 3B in the AS game.
Is it just me, or is this team involved in so many challenges? Is there a stat for this? Seems like we have had plenty so far. Aside from that, I think we are making a DL all star team. God speed to everyone’s return! Go Reds!
Reds don’t even lead MLB with most players on DL. Check out Mets, Rangers, and Rays to name a few.
Yeah, I think it was last week with Costas and Smoltz or Katt and they were doing a Mets game and went through all the man-games they had lost to injury. It was pretty brutal.
It seems insane that Frazier is on a 51 HR pace. I doubt anyone believes he’ll reach that, but 40 seems like a really strong possibility if he stays healthy. Wouldn’t that be something? Todd chasing 40 might help make the season a bit of fun in the inevitable sell-of and/or doldrums of being 25+ games out in August.
If the Reds really get serious as sellers prior to the trade deadline (and they certianly should already be serious sellers) and include Frazier, they will net a king’s ransom as a return and some of the return will be major league ready by 2017.
The Reds made a crazy successful gamble by locking in Frazier’s 2016 contract at a reasonable and controllable value, but Frazier’s 3rd year arbitration contract in 2017 will be grossly expensive and there’s no way the Red sshould even consider a FA extention for a 31-year-old power hitter. Frazier’s trade value right now is at a serious peak with nowhere to go but down. I absolutely love Frazier as a baseball player and personality; he is absolutely my favorite player on the team and the only jersy I have ever purchased. Unfortunately, keeping him with the Reds just doesn’t make any sense. The Reds simply have to learn to take advantage of these situations and not saddle future payroll by overpaying for past performance. In addition, if the Reds make Frazier available now, the receiving team is going to extend his contract and Frazier will be able to lock in the really big bucks he deserves.
Think the Mets, and LHP Steven Matz.
Matz would go into the rotation as soon as he arrives. The Reds sorely lack any LH starting pitching.
Maybe the Reds should trade their entire team of veterans and play MiLB prospects the next 2 or 3 years. 100 L seasons would be commonplace.
While I agree with your thoughts I still think Votto to Boston as a future replacement for the free agent to be Napoli and the soon retiring “Popy”. They can afford it and that leftfield wall would have a hole beat in it by Votto.
Enjoy your posts that you.
Between Votto and Frasier the return would be very interesting. We aren’t winning with them so lets get something for them for the future.
Tom Gray, you always say the same thing, over and over. Keep the veterans and don’t trade anybody seems to be your mantra.
Do you not understand that Cueto and Leake will be gone no matter what at the end of the year anyway?
Do you not get that Chapman only has one more year with the Reds before free agency and that the Reds will have to pay him upwards of 10 million for that year to be a closer on a team that isn’t a contender?
And do you not see that the playoff teams of 2010, 2012, and 2013 were built by developing prospects in 2005-2009? Votto, Bruce, Cueto, and Bailey were all prospects that came up around the same time. The next waves brought Mes, Frazier, Cozart, Stubbs, Leake, Wood, Heisey, etc.. All prospects.
The Reds can’t build winners through free agency or extending veteran players to huge contracts. They have to have a good farm system to compete. They aren’t competing right now, and the farm doesn’t have enough talent to build a winner by itself. So, trade the guys who won’t be here for more than a year or two more to get prospects.
But if you’re so down on this, why don’t you provide a solution instead.of.whining any time someone mentions a trade?
What is up with Jay Bruce and his struggles against RH pitching? He should be mashing RHers. I know with Bruce he is walking more, and that is fine, but he needs to be putting the bat on the ball more. With Bruce batting 4th or 5th, walking more doesn’t help much with Negron, Pena, BHam, the pitcher, Schumaker, Boesch and the likes hitting behind him. Batting average isn’t the tell all, but it tells enough. Bruce’s BA on the road is .191, on the road vs. RH it is .152.
The defensive shifts attribute to this some. But there was one stat that just absolutely floored me about Bruce. And this one was vs. both LH and RH.
Jay Bruce, with a 3-2 count in 41 PA’s, is hitting a robust .000. 18 K’s, 15 BB’s, and ZERO hits. Zero hits in 41 PA’s. Brutal.
Another positive for you all is that I just noticed that Joey Votto played in his 63rd game yesterday. Last season, he was limited to only 62. He also looks very much like the Joey Votto we all expect. This is good news, yes?
Glad to see that one of the big off-season “ifs” landed heads up for the Reds.

What size is a 29 inch tire?
IS 700C same as 29?
How do you measure tire sizes?
What does my tire size mean?
The two digit number after the slash mark is the aspect ratio which measures the tire’s cross-section to it’s width.
If the tire size is 255/60 R16, the 60 means that the height is 60% of the tire’s width. The bigger the aspect ratio, the bigger the tire’s sidewall will be.
What is the circumference of a 20 inch bicycle tire?
What size is a 27 inch tire?
27-inch tires come in common widths of 1-1/8 inch, 1-1/4 inch, and 1-3/8 inch for some older hybrid and cycloross bikes. The BSD of 27-inch tires is 630mm. 27-inch and 700C tires are close enough in size that the inner tubes are compatible; i.e. you can use a 27-inch inner tube in a 700C tire, and vice-versa.

Because the high school wasn’t put into the lockdown mode and the incident occurred at the end of the school day, students exited the building en masse while police were beginning their investigation. It was also “costume day,” so many students were dressed in atypical clothing.
Deputy Police Chief Steven DuBois declined to comment Thursday about the lockdown dispute, noting the police department doesn’t publicize its response tactics so the information can’t be used to commit new crimes.
DuBois said because police were able to put all available resources into responding immediately, three high school freshman — two girls and a boy — were arrested the same night on charges alleging they breached the peace. All played a role in publishing the so-called hit list, he said.
McDonough said the school department is gathering information about the case and will give the three students “due process” before determining if there will be school penalties, in addition to the legal ramifications.
DuBois said police know the teens’ motive behind the list, but will not disclose that information while the charges are pending. He did say, however, that any threat has been alleviated.
The freshmen will be prosecuted through the District Court’s confidential juvenile justice system.

Camden Council is urging residents to stay safe over the festive season, and take extra precautions if shopping.
London is now in Tier 3, a ‘very high’ level of alert because cases of COVID are rising rapidly across the city. This means everyone is at-risk of catching it. To keep loved ones and ourselves safe, we must be extra careful to follow public health advice and in-store safety measures when we are shopping which will save lives and livelihoods.
To support local high street businesses and help people shop safely, the Council has teamed up with MyVirtualNeighbourhood to launch ‘My Virtual Camden’.
Follow the link and click on your neighbourhood to see a directory of local and independent businesses, and find a way to support your local high street either in person or by filtering to those who offer home delivery. We are also encouraging local high street businesses to sign up- it is free and only takes a few minutes.
If you choose to shop in-store, please remember that local businesses have worked hard to put extra measures in place to keep us safe. Please be extra careful to follow all safety measures and public health advice if you are out shopping in the run up to Christmas.
“The last few months have been tough for many businesses, but have also shown how important our high streets are, providing shops, services and outdoor spaces within walking distance of our homes.
“With cases of COVID rising, and London now in Tier 3 we must be extra careful to follow safety measures and public health advice if we’re shopping in the run up to Christmas.
“You can find independent businesses across Camden, whether it’s shopping for groceries, homeware, gifts and more.
