eXp '19 Summer Camp at Benmore Outdoor Activity Centre saw appoximately 50 high school aged young people and 30 adult leaders participate in a themed week 'Facing Your Giants' which consisited of many outdoor activities including canoeing, kayaking, mountain biking, high ropes, caving, gorge walking, walled garden tidy, sports & dance, , indoor workshops such as Music, Drama and Art, Heart Start Training and indoor curling with Elderly Befrienders. The mornings began with an information and games 'Club House' and the day ended with our ever popluar evening 'Club House' with lively worship lead by Gordon Whyte and the House Band and an insightful challenge from our speaker this year, Mr. Paul Pitcher. Paul combined his life experience as a dad, as an Aerospace Engineer, as a professional climber and a Christian to challenge us in the daily Giants we face in making life decisons as believers in Jesus Christ.
We have seen many staff changes with eXp as the founder and Team Leader for eXp, Rev. Paul Beautyman felt God calling him to move on to other life adventures. Connor Barclay was called to take a job as a fulltime Youth Worker in Kelso at the same time. At the moment, Susan Whyte is in post as Interim Team Lead for the next 6 months and Robert Dallow is in post as a part time Youth Worker helping with Primary Schools, Dunoon Grammar School Clubs and our Friday Night Clubs.
Susan and Robert have both been up at DGS, running lunchtime and after school clubs for our young people and rookies. On a Tuesday lunchtime Robert runs the 'MAD' (Make A Difference) club. On a Friday lunchtime Susan runs 'GAP', a girls group. On a Monday after school we use this time to meet with our rookies. Robert Has made his frist trip out to Lochgoilhead Primary school to talk to the children about online safety, we are so excited to continue our relationship with rural schools!
We have taken a group of our 'rookies' on the annual Ardroy weekend at the Ardroy outdoor learning centre at the beginning of November. This was a great time for all and allowed us to develop our rookies and do some leadership training, dicsussions around the bible and build the team relationship through outdoor and indoor activities. The weekend overall was successful and we have come away with a fresh new group of Rookies - who have been helping devlop our Friday Night Club with their ideas and thoughts. We value our rookies so much and appreciate the hard work they put in through the year to make a difference to the young people that come along to our activities!
Since Mid - November, we have made the descision to stop our regular Friday night club for the year. This is to give the staff and voulenteers time to give the Friday Night Club a 'makeover'. We want to make club the best it can be, so Robert has been running sessions with our voulenteers looking at what aspects of Friday night club need developed and changed. With the club stopping until after the new year, we are still excited to be hosting an eXp Christmas party on the 20th December, this will run from 7pm - 9:15 with lots of Christmas food, games, competitions and many more surprises!
We are still in need of regular and occasional volunteers for the Friday Night Club. If interested please do be in touch and we can discuss our needs and what we can offer you as well as what we would expect from you, then you can make an informed decision as to weather this could be the time you are willing to invest as a volunteer with eXp.
There are photos from events and clubs on the eXp Facebook Page regularly. Please have a look!
WHO? - Susan, Robert, Christopher, Blair, Alan, Holly, Mae and Jess
We are all booked in for another year at the Deep Impact conference in January 2020! This will be a great weekend rubbing shoulders with other Chritian Youth Workers from around the United Kingdom. We are praying that this year, like all other years previously, will be full of insightful Workshops, great worship and information that our red hoodies can come away with and put into practise.
We have started to run a meeting on one Monday a month, for our amazing 'red hoodie' voulenteers! We take this time to eat good food, catch up with eachother and brainstorm ideas for eXp events such as friday night club. This is a productive and enjoyable time for everyone to come together and relax as a team.
We have recently introduced a book to our voulenteers. Storylines: Your map to understanding the bible by Andy Croft and Mike Pilavachi. This is a great resource for looking at some stories in the bible in a completely different way. It allows space at the end of each chapter in the book for note taking and to write out our own answers to questions being asked. This will hopefully build bible knowledge among our team and also assist in everyones personal faith. We have started to go through this together as a team
We are very excited to be planning for our 'spark' weekend in February at the Ardroy outdoor learning centre. We will use this weekend to gather most of our red hoodie leaders to plan for exp summer camp 2020 and have a nice relaxing weekend of outdoor activities to say thank you to all of our voulenteers. We recognise that at our sumer camp at Benmore alot of our leaders arent able to join in with activities such as kayaking, absailing etc due to numbers, so this is a great time for us to let them go wild and have fun!
Year two of this adventure for young people who have been involved with the School of Music saw 8 young people staying residentially for the 3 nights 3 1/2 days and a further 3 young people coming for one day to record instruments and sing their parts in the 5 songs that were captured. This was such an encouragement to young people and staff that we would like to find ways to do it more often through out the year and capture some more young people with an interest in music and it's production. The weekend, like the School of Music would not happen with out the time and effort given by Gordon Whyte our volunteer music coordinator. We have been blessed in this second year of the School of Music to have had opportunites to lead worship in a few churches on Cowal and at Barnards Court Mission in Greenock. An 8 track C.D. is now available for sale from the eXp office!

Must-haves for all bloggers and steps to take from the get go!
"Success is normally found in a pile of mistakes" -Tim Fargo
"Your email list is going to be your highest converting traffic channel." -Neil Patel
"What you do after you create your content is what truly counts." -Gary Vaynerchuk
"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." -Albert Einstein
I know that when you first get started blogging, it can feel very overwhelming. So many options, so many opinions. I will give it to you straight. I am about to tell you what works for me, but I am a strong believer in finding what works for you when it comes to blogging. A lot of things depend on your niche, some are just personal preference, and some depends on what you want from your blog. Do you want to monetize? Is this just a hobby or do you want to make it into something more than that? Is it just for fun or is it fun but also a dream of yours?
THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. PLEASE READ MY DISCLOSURE POLICY FOR MORE INFORMATION: https://findinginspirationinthechaos.com/disclosure-policy-2/
Must-haves for all Bloggers
Basic Plugins
- Social Sharing Buttons- These are super important to have on your blog. This is how people can share your posts on social media. You want them to be able to pass along your posts. Get your work out there! Social media really does drive traffic to your blog.
- Popups- So important when it comes to building your email list (more on this later.)
- Analytics- Very important. Google Analytics is free.
- Yoast- help make SEO a lot easier.
Build Your Email List From Day One
I am honestly kicking myself for this one. I wish that I had utilized an email subscribe popup when I FIRST started my blog. However, I just assumed people would "follow" me and that would be good enough. Sadly that was not the case. You aren't given their email when they follow you. So after 5 months of blogging, over 200 followers, I only have 37 email subscribers. 😦 I started using MailChimp. I love it. So easy to use. So many templates. I started doing a weekly newsletter and it has helped increase my daily views, so I know without a doubt that if I had a larger email list that it would only be even better. So I urge you to start that NOW. Having somewhere for readers to signup for your newsletter is crucial to gaining traffic for your blog.
Join Groups You Can Trust And Feel Comfortable In
Facebook has been great for me when it comes to making sincere connections. I have lost count on how many times the people in these groups have helped to bail me out of a blogging issue or inspire me to keep going. Believe it or not, at least for me, sometimes this blogging journey can feel a bit lonely. It is always nice to be able to have a group of people that you can reach out to and be reminded that you aren't alone.
Proper Use Of Pictures Is A Must
You can only use pictures on your site of the following types:
- Your own personal photographs.
- Any images you have paid for (as long as you paid for the right use) Pay close attention to their terms and double check whether you need to give credit.
- Any images that are available on a copyright free website. I like to use Unsplash and Pexels.
- Pictures where you have gotten direct permission from the owner.
Canva is a great tool that allows you to design anything and publish straight from their site. It comes with thousands of templates that can be customized to fit your needs and personal style. It is great for Pinterest, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook images for posting. Creating a Canva account is free and there's no need to pay for its essential features. The free option still allows you to make beautiful designs and publish them. Canva has apps available on iPhones, Ipads, and Androids.
I highly recommend Tailwind, especially if you want to up your Pinterest game (Instagram too). Tailwind allows you to schedule multiple posts for Pinterest and Instagram, months in advance. You can even set it up to pin to multiple boards and track activity and trends and offers analytics to help you monitor your Instagram and Pinterest followers, brand mentions, likes, repins, boards, etc… However, they do offer a free trial and then it is $15.00 a month for the Plus Plan.
I know that some people are really on a tight budget, which I completely understand, but I can say that I have noticed an increase in my monthly viewers and blog traffic from Pinterest and Instagram. I went from 2 monthly viewers to 131,000 viewers in a little over 2 months. Now I am not going to blindly give all that credit to Tailwind because I re-worked all my pins and worked really hard on the pin descriptions. But Tailwind is a great asset for me.
I am a visual person. It helps me tremendously to see step-by-step what is needed to be done for each post, from writing to pining to socializing and everything in between. I love the feeling of accomplishment that I get each time I get to mark something off my list.
These are my must-have for bloggers. Do you have any must-haves? Any tricks up your sleeve? I would love to hear. The truth is I am still learning. I believe that blogging can be a learn as you go scenario. Don't be afraid to try new things. If it works, great! If it doesn't, pick up the pieces and try something different. Find what works best for you and run with it.
Want some more help with blogging? Here is a post on Pinterest for beginners.
"But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Isaiah 40:31

What is prayer? Sometimes it is thanksgiving, or giving praise, or to ease the pain, or to share the burden. God loves when we are attentive enough to join our hearts to His.
If you want or need prayer for yourself or a situation, please submit it here. Know that your prayer will be lifted and you are not alone! We are honored and humbled to pray with you, and for you.
And in the same way the Spirit is a help to our feeble hearts: for we are not able to make prayer to God in the right way; but the Spirit puts our desires into words which are not in our power to say. Romans 8:26

Golly, but it's a while since Sam Sparro unveiled his single 'Hang On 2 Your Love' onto the world – back in the middle of August according to our records. Perhaps he could have called this new edition 'Hang On 4 My Video'? Yes, more than five months on, Mister Sparro has dropped the official video to the single that features the guest vocals of US based soul singer Durand Bernarr.
Not that we mind the wait when the whole thing is pretty much an homage to the pash. Yes, it features a whole host of couples of different ethnicities, sexualities and tastes puckering up all in the name of art, most of them wearing very little.
Late, yes, but loving all the same.

GIOTTO, ESA remembers the night of the comet
Twenty-five years ago, ESA made its mark in deep space. A small spacecraft swept to within 600 km of Halley's comet. The Giotto probe was nearly destroyed by the encounter but what it saw changed our picture of comets forever.
This video was produced in collaboration with the BBC's "Horizon" series in the U.K. It details the story of the Halley's Comet, the development of ESA's Giotto programme, the excitement of the final encounter and the scientific results of the mission.

I figured that while I was on the Moon kick, and I don't currently have a camera good enough to get good pictures of it, I'd make my own cool photo! So, I took a photo of the Ponce Inlet Light House I took a couple of weeks ago and stitched it together with a photo I grabbed of the moon about 5 years ago… technology is amazing.
The light house part of the photo was taken with my little Kodak M532 point and shoot and the Moon photo was taken with my old Kodak P850, I used the open source image editor GIMP to put them both together. A little image trickery, I know… but I am rather pleased with the end result.

1927 Model X Duesenberg sedan It had been parked since 1947.
Because it was just sort of parked, and everything was oily when it was parked, everything moved and everything was free. The windows were left rolled up so nothing got in there. Two of its tires still held air, and the other two were rock solid. The old fellow bought the car in Chicago, had it shipped out here by train, and towed it with a chain to his garage. And then he never ran it. One of 4 known to exist, one of 14 made.

Duesenberg sedan Jay Leno also managed to free this Duesenberg sedan that was left in a New York City parking structure in 1933 but the garage was remodeled in the mid-'60s and got a new elevator that's about a foot and a half shorter than the old one. The Duesy was stuck.

1934 Ford custom speedster originally built for Edsel B. Ford. After Ford's passing in 1943, this car found its way from Michigan to California and then to Florida where it was stored for 40 years, and dug out of obscurity by the head of the Amelia Island Concours.

Divrey Hayamim Alef 7
Orthodox Jewish Bible
7 Now the Bnei Yissakhar were Tola, Pu'ah, Yashuv, Shimrom, 4.
2 And the Bnei Tola: Uzzi, Refayah, Yeriel, Yachmai, Yivsam, and Shmuel, heads of their bais avot, namely, of Tola; they were gibborei chayil (warriors of valor) in their toldot (generations), whose number was in the days of Dovid 22,600.
3 And the Bnei Uzzi: Yizrachyah; and the Bnei Yizrachyah: Micha'el, and Ovadyah, and Yoel, Yishiyah, 5, all of them rashim (leaders).
4 And with them, by their toldot, after their bais avot, were bands of soldiers for milchamah, 36,000, for they had many nashim and banim.
5 And their brethren among all the mishpekhot of Yissakhar were gibborei chayil, reckoned in all by their genealogies 87,000.
6 The Bnei Binyamin: Bela, and Becher, and Yedia'el, 3.
7 And the Bnei Bela: Etzbon, and Uzzi, and Uzzi'el, and Yerimot, and Iri, 5; heads of their bais avot, gibborei chayalim (warriors of valor); and were reckoned by their genealogies 22,034.

While I was pregnant with Leo, I frequently browsed through Pinterest for guidance on what I should pack in my diaper bag. Once Leo was born, I quickly learned that each parent packs their diaper bag according to their individual baby's needs. I'd like to think that my husband and I are very practical people – so, I don't like to buy or carry around items that I know we don't need.
Below is a glimpse of the essentials that I carry in my bag for Leo.
*My diaper bag is a Kate Spade tote bag that I received as a gift. It is very spacious and contains two side pockets, two small inside pockets, one large inside pocket, and one zippered pocket.
- Diapers – Pampers and Huggies are the preferred brands in our household. I usually aim to carry a minimum of (5) depending on how long my trip out of the house will be. Huggies seem softer and more comfortable for Leo while Pampers has the advantage of the "wetness" indicator, which really helps when we're on-the-go.
- Wipes – While I would love to splurge on Water Wipes, Pampers Sensitive wipes are the second best choice. Since these wipes are made for sensitive skin, they are extremely soft and gentle enough to use on Leo's hands and face for quick clean-ups.
- Barrier Creams – A good diaper rash or barrier cream is essential for those times when you think you'll be unable to quickly change a diaper. Barrier creams work by providing a layer between Leo's tush and the moisture from a wet diaper. We use an inexpensive petroleum jelly from Dollar Tree and/or a zinc oxide cream to prevent diaper rash.
- Changing Pad – A changing pad is a must for diaper changes on-the-go. You never know when you'll need to change a diaper in the event that a changing table is unavailable – even still, the changing pad on top of the table provides that extra security of protection from germs. Luckily, my diaper bag came with one – but, here is one that we use for various changes around the house, which also comes with a pocket for diapers and wipes.
- Extra Accessories – There are a few extra accessories for diaper changes that I also recommend. These are not necessarily essentials – but, I have found that they really are an added benefit.
- Baby Bum Brush – Applying a barrier cream with your hands can get very messy and is so difficult to clean-up. This little tool makes things a lot easier.
- Diaper Sacks – Got to love those odor-blocking trash bags for those dirty diaper changes when a garbage can isn't accessible, such as in the car.
- Hand Sanitizer – I received this sanitizing spray in a Target Baby Box and love that it keeps my hands soft and doesn't dry them out.
- Bottles – The Philips Avent bottles have proven to be the best choice for us as far as comfort and colic prevention for Leo when feeding. When on-the-go, I prepare his bottles with filtered water before leaving the house and add scoops of formula when Leo is ready to feed.
- Formula Dispensers – I tried a few of these, but found the Tommee Tippee dispensers to be absolute life-savers! (I would seriously recommend these to any formula-feeding mamas in the house.) They are the perfect size and hold up to (4) scoops of formula to make an 8 oz. bottle on-the-go or during nighttime feedings. They are also super easy to clean and the formula does not get stuck in the dispenser when preparing a feed as I have experienced with other brands.
- Burp Cloths & Bibs – Unless you prefer a shirt stained with spit-up or drool at all times, burp cloths and bibs are a must. I love the Burpy Bibs from Aden & Anais that work as both a burp cloth and a bib. Another favorite are these super stylish bandana bibs. A set of these will match just about any of Leo's outfits and will also come in handy once he starts teething and drooling non-stop.
- Extra Accessories – I also carry an extra pacifier with a grip to keep it from getting misplaced and baby washcloths for quick clean-ups while in the car seat.
Additional Items & Non-Pictured Necessities
- Outfits – I had my first incident as an unprepared new mama when Leo had his first blow-out during a playdate at the zoo. He pooped all over his socks, burp cloth (on my lap), and blanket. It was also a particular windy day and he was dressed in a single-layered onesie without a hat. (I know, I know – tragic.) Since then, I always make sure to have extra outfits on-hand to withstand any type of weather: a short-sleeved onesie, a long-sleeved onesie, an extra hat, extra socks, and a sleeper. I especially love these mesh organizing bags to separate the clean clothes from the dirty ones.
- Portable Bedtime – There have been a few times where we have been out and about at a friend or family's home past Leo's bedtime. So, I make sure that I am prepared to do a quick bedtime routine wherever we are so as not to get too off track. I pack coconut oil or some sort of nighttime balm, a mild baby shampoo, a blanket, and a swaddle sleep-sack. We are still in the process of determining which products work best for Leo's skin – so, I use sample products of balm and shampoo that vary.
- Carrier – If you have been following me for quite a while, you know that I am a huge advocate of babywearing. My wrap always comes in handy and I rarely leave the house without it.
- Mama Things – I also keep a mini-bag of "extras" that are moreso for me while I am out i.e. Motrin (…because, wine or caffeine headache + hungry, crying baby), chapstick, and hair ties.
What other essentials do you carry in your diaper bag?

Virtual data room pricing has evolved and is now more akin to 'buffet-style' flat rates than full 'à la carte' menu charges. But just as buffets vary by venue – the meal you get at The Sizzler will be a very different experience than at the Waldorf-Astoria — vendors don't always unify virtual data room features. Since pricing reflects features, making direct comparisons is challenging.
So the short answer to the question, "How much should a virtual data room cost?" is, "It depends." Characteristics such as project size, scope and duration will affect the price. Preventing any overspending on a virtual data room is a big concern, especially for startups looking to save. Since understanding fundamental cost drivers and pricing structures of virtual data room providers can inform and accelerate your decision process, we've compiled this summary to help.
Virtual Data Room Cost Drivers
The cost components of virtual data rooms focus on nine features. As you begin comparing VDR providers, examine the depth of services available on these dimensions:
- Security. Virtual data rooms reason-for-being, security is crucial to assess when comparing virtual data rooms. Look for the level of encryption, the presence of two-factor authentication, audit, watermarks, and document recovery processes.
- Document Management. Likely the second-most important feature of VDRs, document management centers around the ease of uploading and downloading documents, the presence of version controls, document editing capabilities, and search tools.
- User Management. This involves how users interact with information in the virtual data room, including permission roles and password protections.
- Collaborating. These features allow users to ask and answer questions, insert comments and issue alerts or instant messages to groups.
- Accessibility. Accessibility and ease-of-use work hand-in-hand; look for vendors who enable secure access to the VDR from multiple browsers without needing additional software or hardware. Mobile access is now available from some providers.
- Report Tracking. At a minimum, a VDR should provide a trail of activity showing who accessed documents and when.
- Client Management. This isn't available from all providers but can include services such as multiple project permission, 'blinding' users from seeing each other, and providing investor or deal summaries.
- Customizing. Another feature not available from all vendors, this allows users to brand login pages, watermarks and alerts.
- Integration. Some vendors allow the use of the VDR with other software such as Microsoft Office, SalesForce, and Google Drive.
Virtual Data Room Pricing Structures
Most online virtual data room providers offer tiered pricing for virtual data room pricing services with upper tiers inclusive of more features. Virtual data room costs depend on fees that are charged monthly, with some providers offering discounts for an annual payment.
The list below shows virtual data room pricing variables that differ between the tiers. Use this list to begin mapping the scope of services you need from a virtual data room. Don't be concerned if you can't 'fill in the blanks' on all of these services. Most vendors will help you determine the solution that meets your needs.
Also, if you see a feature you like from one vendor, but don't see it on another vendor's list, be sure to ask – the function may be available but is described differently:
- Amount of storage needed
- Number of workspaces
- Number of administrators (can upload documents, give permissions, and track activity)
- Number of users
- Document management tools (including collaboration)
- Level of document security
- Level of customization
- Level of client support (including training)
Virtual Data Room Pricing Illustrated
With CapLinked, for example, the Professional tier of online virtual data room service is priced at $99 per month. This price covers:
- ten GB of storage (for perspective, this is more than 6.8 million pages of text documents or more than 1 million emails with one-third of them having attachments)
- one workspace
- ten administrators
- unlimited guest users
Security, support, and document management tools for the VDR tier includes:
- Enterprise-Grade File Encryption
- SOC2/SSAE 16 Type II Security
- Custom Permissions / Access Control Lists
- Standard Help Center and Email Support
- File Versioning / Version History
- Q&A Process Management
- Updates & Notifications Feed
- Audit Trail & Report Building
"Basic" plans from other providers may start at $99 per month up to $150 per month. Assessing your needs and comparing features is key to making sure you aren't paying for services you don't need.
Moving up to CapLinked's Professional tier priced at $99 per month provides the standard features plus more administrators, support and security controls. Security enhancements and additional document management tools include the following:
- Securely send files via email custom URL
- FileProtect (Digital Rights Management)
- Enforceable 2-Factor Authentication
- Custom Branding / Invitations / Login Page
- Custom Dynamic Watermarking
- Full-Text Advanced Search
The Business tier for CapLinked's online virtual data room service expands on the Professional features with premium administrative controls, customizable workflow solutions, single sign-on, and API integration access. Pricing is discussed with clients directly.
Support includes a dedicated customer success manager and prioritized 24/7 email and phone response. Enhanced document management tools cover:
- Collaborative Document Editor
- Real-Time Virus Scanning
- Desktop Bulk Uploader (FTP Support)
After you define your project scope and the capabilities you'll need from a virtual data room provider, give our team a call to discuss CapLinked's options, or simply head to our pricing page. Our virtual data room solution has been named 'one of the highest quality data rooms on the market,' and 'one of the most fairly priced data rooms.'

Paper Suggests Strategies to Improve Community Colleges
If you are interested in what it will take to get more students to complete community college, check out a new paper released today by the Community College Research Center.
Redesigning Community Colleges for Completion: Lessons From Research On High-Performance Organizations, by Davis Jenkins, is one in a series of working papers on strategies for improving the success of students who attend community college.
There has been lots of talk about the importance of increasing the supply of educated workers over the coming decade. And community colleges are critical in this effort as they enroll nearly half the nation's undergraduates and more often serve low-income and academically underprepared populations.
The CCRC series suggests that community colleges need to move beyond small-scale programs and instead engage in broad institutional reform.
Jenkins' paper looks at eight practices common among high-performance organizations: leadership, focus on the customer, functional alignment, process improvement, use of measurement, employee involvement and professional development, and external linkages.
To boost graduation rates, the paper recommends community colleges:
-Partner with high schools (and adult basic skills programs) to align curricula and ensure students are motivated and prepared to succeed in college;
-Cultivate leadership for improved student success throughout the college;
-Empower faculty to establish common learning outcomes and assessments for academic programs;
-Rethink college policies to help students better negotiate the pathways they take through the institution;
-Engage student services staff in developing protocols of recommended practice;
The other CCRC papers released today include:
The Shapeless River: Does a Lack of Structure Inhibit Students' Progress at Community Colleges? by Judith Scott-Clayton.
Online Learning: Does It Help Low-Income and Underprepared Students? by Shanna Jaggars.

Corridors of Power
Corridors of Power, an exhibition of select architectural drawings and models explored Sri Lanka's constitutional evolution. The exhibition aimed to trace Sri Lanka's constitutional reform in a pictorial manner. Led by the input of Asanga Welikala, in collaboration with Channa Daswatte, 'Corridors of Power' through architectural drawings and models, interrogated Sri Lanka's constitutional evolution since 1972. Curated by Groundviews, the exhibition included large format drawings, 3D flyovers, sketches, and models reflecting the power dynamics enshrined in the Constitution. Covering the four corners of the island, the exhibition was organized in Kandy, Jaffna, Baticoloa and Galle.
"The Corridors of Power" is on the one hand an attempt at drawing and modelling Sri Lanka's tryst with democracy and on the other hand a never before chance for an ordinary citizen to understand what is at stake. From international constitution building experts to students , from activists to academics, from legislators to corporate heads, from security guards to those simply passing by, everybody realized what a constitution is, its enormity and the bearing it has on the lives of citizens.
In a democracy, a citizen's freedom largely depends on what is and what is not included in the constitution. The ignorance of what the country's constitution entails is detrimental to individual and collective freedom. History has shown how ignorance and indifference of the constitution has given a carte blanche to rulers to veer away from the democratic path and take away cardinal democratic principles.
A constitution is essentially a blueprint of power relations. Architecture – drawing, rendering and modelling – provides a blueprint of spatial relationships. "This exhibition is an innovative attempt to use the visual and spatial expression of architecture to depict the loci of power as enshrined in our constitution" remarked Sagarica Delgoda, Head of Country Office, FNF Sri Lanka.
The Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom (FNF) proudly co-organized the project. It will soon be translated to Sinhala and Tamil to reach out to more people.

Speaking of anal games, you don't need to jump into anal sex immediately. In fact, anal games can be equally satisfying and a stepping stone for anal toy, especially if you are a little hesitant about it.
When you using the anal toy to play anal games is that anyone of any gender and sexual orientation can enjoy it, not just gay men.
Many people like anal penetration, including heterosexual men and women, including a wide range of sexual activities, including buttocks.
From the anal bead to the buttocks to the prostate massager, you can explore the field of anal games alone or with your partner in a variety of ways. These anal toys are designed to satisfy your sexual desire in a variety of creative ways.
If you're looking for deep penetration, consider a realistic anal toy to make your fantasy come true!
For anal toy, hygiene is very important because they will enter your butt, so using non-porous materials like silicone or glass is the best choice. These materials are very easy to clean and most can be done completely disinfection.
Anal games with using anal toy can bring a lot of fun.
But for beginners, this can be quite daunting. You really need to do some preliminary work to reduce the discomfort during anal intercourse and help relax your body. You will get a better experience with anal toy in a few very simple steps.
First, I suggest you become more familiar with your own anus and rectum. Try to play your ass while you masturbate. You can use a lubricated finger or a slender artificial penis coated with oil.
If you are using anal toy, make sure it has a flared base, which is wider than the toy itself. Your anal sphincter is amazingly strong and can pull sex toys into the rectum. A flared base ensures that you don't go to the hospital emergency room. (Don't scare you, but your rectum may be lost, which is why you should not use any anal toys that do not meet this standard.)
Overcome anal sex fears starting with anal toy
If you are scared or nervous about your partner's penis circumference, you can start with a very slender fake penis and slowly try a bigger and larger dildo to understand the size you can accept. This can also help you stay more relaxed when you have an anal sex with your partner.
Try some anal games before anal sex to avoid pain
Next, I suggest that you and your partner focus more on anal games than on anal sex. Let your partner deal with you with your fingers or anal toy and show your partner what you like. Try deep communication and give your partner feedback on speed, depth, stress, and more.
Be sure to remember "foreplay" and "lubricant"
When you are ready to try anal sex, spend plenty of time hooking up before. Relax and open as much as possible. Remember, be sure to use a lot of lubricant to lubricate his penis. You can also add some lubricant to your anus. For anal games, I believe that silicone lubricants work best! It has a thicker consistency and lasts longer than water-based lubricants, so you don't have to reapply on anal sex.
Communicate your feelings with your partner publicly
Remind your partner that you are a bit nervous and let him know that you need to be as slow as possible. Let him put his penis on your anus and put it there as you slowly take a deep breath. It is recommended that you control the insertion so that you can control the exact speed and depth.
Try to push your body to his body and let his penis enter about an inch.
Pause and continue to focus on breathing and stay relaxed. If you feel ok, try another inch. Work as comfortably as possible along the length of the penis. If you feel good, try moving up and down on his penis or letting him control the movement. Keep communicating and let him know how you feel.
If you think that anal sex is what you want to try, when you use the right Anal toy, they can experience incredible anal pleasure!

The Movement for Social Justice (MSJ) once again calls for the peaceful resolution of the conflict in Venezuela.
There is presently underway in Venezuela a strategy by the forces of reaction assembled in the Democratic Unity Roundtable (MUD) to frustrate each and every peaceful and democratic initiative to resolve the ongoing conflict in that country. These forces of reaction first rejected attempts at dialogue called for by the democratically elected President Nicolas Maduro; and then amazingly also rebuffed the initiative of Pope Francis to have a peaceful dialogue. Instead of working towards a negotiated resolution of the conflict, the forces of reaction have resorted to violent protest actions in a clear effort of destabilsing the government and forcing regime change. In this they have the support of powerful external forces, of imperialism.
President Maduro, in response to this, has called into being the process of electing a National Constituent Assembly as provided for by the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. Given that this process is both within the construct of the Constitution and provides for the participation of all Venezuelans by way of the election to the Constituent Assembly, this was yet another initiative aimed at peacefully addressing the conflict – this time with the involvement of citizens directly.
The reaction by the opposition has been to attempt extra-constitutional and in some instances extra legal methods. Thus, since the decision to initiate the process of the Constituent Assembly, the forces of reaction carried out an armed attack on the nation's Supreme Court and on a Ministry building. They have now decided to boycott the elections to the Constituent Assembly and decided to hold a so-called plebiscite. The question that must be asked of the opposition is – why do they fear the process of the Constituent Assembly? Is it because they would be exposed as having less popular support than they claim?
The plebiscite by the opposition will be conducted on July 16 without any of the guarantees of transparency, accountability or rules of an election or national referendum. The lists of persons eligible, the supervision of the process and the independent verification of the results will be almost non-existent. Yet, these very basic requirements of a democratic process are being totally ignored by the forces of reaction who claim to act in the name of democracy. The plebiscite is therefore a sham.
The Movement for Social Justice (MSJ) once again calls for the peaceful resolution of the conflict in Venezuela. We support the decision of Caricom Heads of Government who called for dialogue and offered their services in this regard. We believe that the process initiated by President Maduro for the election for a Constituent Assembly offers a democratic mechanism within the framework of the Constitution of Venezuela to establish the will of the people and therefore view the opposition's so called plebiscite as another example of their refusal to move to a negotiated, peaceful resolution which position underpins their intent on regime change by any means, including extra constitutional and violent actions.

Cellu-Lift is a powerful anti-cellulite cream body lotion.
Cellulite is the consequence of the skin's lack of elasticity and inability to retain fat cells which push up against the connective tissue below skin and give it a dimpled texture and pocketed look.
To reduce cellulite and smooth skin, Cellu-Lift contains an active substance scientifically recognized for its efficiency in anti-cellulite treatments: Quinoa extracts which directly acts on the hypodermics, the thin fat layer directly under the skin.
Quinoa extracts stimulates as well the natural process of fat recycling in energy and pushes cells to burn excess fats stocked.
The active substances of Cellu-Lift are blended in a silky-like lotion that leaves your skin soft and hydrated and allows an easy application.
Cellu-Lift's packaging also allows you to use the product till the last drop and keep the quality of the cream by avoiding the air to penetrate inside the bottle.
The lotion has to be applied twice a day, morning and evening, daily.
The results are visible few weeks after starting the treatment.
Stretch Marks Repair is the best stretch mark removal cream with Quinoa extracts.
Stretch Marks Repair is a stretch mark treatment specially designed to target marks left on skin after quick body changes such as pregnancy, or when a person loses / gains of weight and also prepares the skin to upcoming body changes.
To repair the scars left on skin by those body changes, Stretch Marks Repair uses Palmitoyl Tripeptid-5 to stimulate collagen production and increase cutaneous cells density in targeted zones.
Stretch Marks Repair also uses Panthenol, a nutrient which hydrates skin and increases its elasticity. It helps prepare zones more sensitive to stretch marks (thighs, belly, hips…) for eventual body changes and therefore prevents stretch marks.
Stretch Marks Repair contains Marrubium Vulgare (daisy plant) extracts to reduce and prevent dryness while protecting against inflammation.
Those three ingredients are blended in a hydrating and nourishing lotion which smooth skin's roughness and considerably improves its flexibility to make it the best stretch mark treatment.
Finally, its special packaging called Airless pump helps to use the product till the last drop and also prevent the air to penetrate in the bottle and damaging the cream.

Strawberries are slowly coming on the market… I mean local strawberries. Not that I'm not using also imported ones, I'm an addict and can't wait for them to arrive, but the locals are better (and I don't mean local to me, but local in general). Anyway, off the red herring and back on the recipe 😉 this one is very quick and easy to do, as always (I'd like to add).
- strawberries
- rhubarb
- brown sugar
- lemongrass
- water
- cream
- vanilla paste
- peel the rhubarb and cut it into slices, put it in a pan with a couple of spoons of water and a sprinkling of sugar;
- add the lemongrass and let it cook until the rhubarb has softened, leave to cool;
- once cooled take out the lemongrass and add the chopped strawberries;
- whip the cream adding some vanilla paste and serve.

Exhibition on Screen: Michelangelo: Love and Death (U)
@ The WithamBook Now
13 June 2017
7:30 pm
£14 adult | £12 concession
The spectacular sculptures and paintings of Michelangelo seem so familiar to us, but what do we really know about this renaissance genius? Who was this ambitious and passionate man?
A virtuoso craftsman, Michelangelo's artistry is evident in everything he touched. Beautiful and diverse works such as the towering statue of David, the deeply moving Pietà in the Papal Basilica of St. Peter and his tour-de-force, the Sistine Chapel ceiling still leave us breathless today.
Spanning his 89 years, Michelangelo – Love and Death takes a cinematic journey from the print and drawing rooms of Europe, through the great chapels and museums of Florence, Rome and the Vatican to explore the tempestuous life of Michelangelo. We go in search of a greater understanding of this most charismatic figure, his relationship with his contemporaries and his valuable artistic legacy. Through expert commentary and Michelangelo's own words, this film takes a fresh look at an enigmatic man whose life is celebrated in every mark and every stroke he made.
A giant artistic force and universally loved, discover why Michelangelo is without a doubt one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance – and perhaps of all time.
"Cold stone and fire are such friends…" Michelangelo Buonarotti

I think the high point in my fannish lifetime will always be, to me, SGA.
It's probably not true that it's the objectively best fandom that has ever lived. It had its problems: the utter dominance of McKay/Sheppard, the occasional flare-ups of wank, the obsession with convincing people that Joe Flannigan is the most beautiful person who has ever lived. My reflections on it are always going to be colored by the fact that it was a particular type of fandom that I hit at a particular time in my life.
But, seriously, it was a fucking awesome fandom. It was a fandom that made me hopeful about what fandoms could be. It was so full of thoughtful meta, ambitious sci-fi stories, fanworks that had the ability to be both deeply critical and celebratory about the original canon. It was also happening at the same time as racewank, which was both difficult and important to me. Race wasn't something I had been comfortable thinking about, growing up, and it was a rude and necessary awakening for me to go through. Acafandom became visible, and the discussion of fanworks as criticism came to the forefront.
It was a fandom that taught me so much, about how to write stories, how to think about stories, and how to think about myself. I don't know if we'll ever see the likes of it again, because it was just this confluence of super interesting things.
So how has fandom changed for me? The death of metafandom was kind of gutting, if only because it created a space for cross-fandom discussion, and it made it possible to feel like there was a singular Fandom, spread across our little fiefdoms. It was also an important space for discussing and policing fannish norms and offering advice on writing and posting and everything.
Tumblr obviously became big, and with it, I think I've lost a lot. We've gained things, GIFs and fanart and a more unwavering sense of social justice. But I feel like that sense of purpose I felt in SGA, that fic didn't just have to be fun and feelings-pleasing, but that it could mean things as well. Fan art could and should mean things. Fandom was a taking back, not just a leeching off of, the canons that it was based off of.
I wonder if something as depressing and as aching as Freedom's Just Another Word For Nothing Left To Lose could or would be as big a hit as it was in the Tumblr era. I don't know, and it makes me sad.

Dear Constant Reader,
It's been a while since I did any really historic cooking. This late 18th century recipe for asparagus bits in a savory custard sauce served inside a hollowed-out loaf of bread makes a delightful light supper or, as recommended, a side dish.
From The Housekeeper's Instructor by William Augustus Henderson (1790)
Asparagus forced in French Rolls.
Cut a piece out of the crust of the tops of three French rolls, and take out the crumb; but be careful that the crusts fit again in the places from whence they were taken. Fry the rolls brown in fresh butter: then take a pint of cream, the yolks of eggs beat fine, and a little salt and nutmeg. Stir them well together over a slow fire till it begins to be thick. Have ready an hundred of small grass boiled, and save tops enough to stick the rolls with. Cut the rest of the tops small, put them into the cream, and fill the loaves with them. Before you fry the rolls, make holes thick in the top crusts to stick the grass in. Then lay on the pieces of crust, and stick the grass in, which will make it look as if it were growing. This makes a very handsome side-dish at a second course.
The original recipe makes three loaves, but I cut it down to one, as is my wont.
"Forced" (sometimes spelled "farced") means stuffed.
Asparagus was well known in the classical world, where it was called "asparagus" by the Romans. The Emperor Augustus is reported to have said "celerius quam asparagi cocuntur" ("quicker than cooking asparagus") to describe something done very fast. The vegetable didn't become popular in northern Europe until the 16th century. The English, because they're like that, mutated the perfectly good Latin name into "sparrow grass" or just plain "grass", as did our author above.
I start with a small loaf of French bread (you don't want to use a baguette for this — it's too long and skinny) and cut a big rectangle out of the top crust. Be careful not to break it when removing (done that). Carefully scoop out all the bread inside without cutting through the crust. I just pull it out with my fingers and maybe use a spoon for the last bits. I save the innards for something that needs bread crumbs. Poke a bunch of holes in the top crust. They should be just big enough to hold an asparagus stalk.
Then melt some butter in a skillet and fry the bread until it is toasted. There's no butter in the above photo because I forgot it in the fridge. The lid is easy to fry, but the loaf is a bit awkward. I like to brush the interior of the loaf with some of the melted butter.
Cook asparagus until it's just tender. This doesn't take long (see the Latin quote above) If you don't have your favorite method, you can see how I cook them here. Cut the cooked asparagus into small pieces. I think I usually cut them about an inch long. Reserve as many asparagus tips as holes poked in the bread lid.
Warm some cream in a small saucepan. I was using light cream, but you can use heavy cream for a creamier custard. I don't like whipping cream because it has thickeners added to it. Beat an egg yolk in a small bowl. When the cream gets hot, temper the egg yolk by added a little cream to the egg, beating the whole while. Add the egg/cream mixture back into the cream. Season with salt and grated nutmeg (also missing in the picture — where was my head?).
Cook custard over low heat until it thickens a bit. Add the asparagus bits to the saucepan and remove from heat. You don't want the asparagus to cook more, just warm up a touch.
Spoon the asparagus-custard mixture into the loaf. Take the reserved tips and stick them into the holes you poked in the lid. Put the lid on the loaf. Voila! It looks like a little grassy hill. Adorable!
I end up cutting this into very messy, but delicious, slices, because the custard oozes out as soon as the structural integrity of the loaf is breached. I suppose one could treat it like a bread bowl, where the loaf is primarily a serving vessel, but I like the combination of bread, custard, and asparagus in each bite.
Asparagus Forced in a French Roll
1 small loaf of French bread (should be crusty, but not a baguette)
5 oz. cream
1 egg yolk, beaten
1 bunch asparagus (about 30 skinny stalks)
Salt to taste
Nutmeg to taste
Cut out a lid from the top crust of the loaf. Carefully scoop out all the bread inside without damaging the crust. Cut several holes in the lid.
Melt a little butter in a skillet, about a tablespoon or so, and fry the bread until it is toasted.
Cook asparagus until tender. Cut the cooked asparagus into small pieces. Reserve as many asparagus tips as holes poked in the bread lid.
Warm cream in a small saucepan. Temper egg yolk and add to cream. Season with salt and freshly grated nutmeg. Cook over low heat until sauce thickens. Add the asparagus bits to the mixture and remove from heat.
Spoon the asparagus-custard mixture into the loaf. Take the reserved tips and stick them into the holes cut in the lid. Replace the lid on the loaf. Serve.

This morning we were out in force on television, debating the efficacyof HR 1, President Obama's Economic Recovery Act. Like others, I'vepushed for more spending on infrastructure and a bolder plan, but it'sundeniable that the bill is an important shot in the arm for states andlocal jurisdictions facing massive layoffs and suspension of services.The bill also represents one of the single largest investments in publiceducation in our nation's history.
Some have argued for a return to the past, pushing tax cuts overspending and a reliance on the same failed Bush/Cheney policies thatlost us hundreds of thousands of jobs (not to mention two elections forthe Republicans.) But as HR-1 heads to the Senate, what is the impact ofthe bill for Americans hurting most from the recession? Today onDemocracy Now, The Nation's William Greider ridiculed charges that thestimulus package is "socialism," and parsed the politics of therecovery bill.
Greider goes on to argue that the stimulus must be coupled with moreaggressive government regulation. You can see the second and third partsof his interview here.
On MSNBC's Morning Joe today, I discussed the recovery act with the Chairperson of Black Entertainment Television, Debra Lee. Theconversation turned to regulation and changing Washington, DC, but Leeand I struggled to shift the conversation back to the topic that mattersmost: the economic conditions on the ground for millions ofAmericans facing foreclosure, unemployment and mounting debt.
In our new book, Meltdown, longtime contributors to The Nation shed somelight on how we got into this terrible crisis, and how greed andcorruption shattered our financial system. But the debate on how torecover and how to move our economy forward will be divisive and hardfought. Already, free-market extremists are digging in for the battle ofa generation. Yesterday's vote was an important step–a step in whatwill be a long road back for many Americans. As Bill said on DemocracyNow this morning, we can only hope that American's who are struggling tokeep the lights and the heat on, and keep their families fed don't getlost in the politics.

Today was hard, and it sucked, and blah blah blah. At least I know I have not forgotten how to cry. I don't know if I said this before but the other night I accidentally slammed the car door on my leg and now I have this electric blue puff-paint looking bruise. Quite the accomplishment, I must say.
The plans for the big VD (not venereal disease, valentine's day):
Getting together a bunch of laundry and blankets, and then going and getting the best Chinese food in existence and eating dinner and doing laundry in Martinez with Stefan in one of the prettiest laundromats I've ever witnessed.
I love... laundromats.
I love... Chinese food.
I love... Stefan. There, I said it. I can stop acting like Meg now, since it's out there.
I still hate Valentine's Day though. It's crap and anxiety. And... oh my god, I'll be on the other side of the bridge tomorrow! I need to call Mya.. I have a devious plan.
I want a bagel now. And I was very naked today, it was strange. I didn't even look like me. No make-up, no heat-styled hair, just all natural.
I look fifty. An old woman at seventeen. Who'd have guessed? I bet that's why they sell me cigarettes.

Advanced Windshield Technologies FAQs
What is ADAS?
Offered as an option when purchasing a new vehicle, the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) consists of safety components such as Lane Departure Warning, Front Collision Warning, and Blind Spot Detection. Most auto manufacturers are now offering these features in a package bundle. All existing self-driving cars are equipped with these safety features and more.
What is a LDWS?
A Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) is a vehicle option designed to warn the driver to get back in their lane if the car is about to go over the line or if they try to make a lane change WITHOUT a turn signal. Also called LKA (Lane-Keeping Assist), this system operates via a camera mounted on top of your windshield. The camera is located behind the rearview mirror and is covered with a plastic enclosure. To alert the driver to take a corrective action, this built-in safety component system provides an audible warning sound (beep) or causes the steering wheel to vibrate. If your vehicle has this feature, please refer to the owner's manual for more information.
What is Forward Collision Warning?
Similar to a LWDS, a Forward Collision Warning System helps prevent accidents by sounding an alarm or vibrating the steering wheel, causing a quick brake pulse. This excellent safety feature can save lives by warning you if your vehicle gets too close to an object, such as the car in front of you and or crossing pedestrians.
What is Blind Spot Detection?
Blind Spot Detection is a subcomponent of a LDWS (Lane Departure Warning System). While in a driving mode, it detects objects in a blind spot like other vehicles located on the driver's side and rear side. In addition, it sounds an alarm if you are getting too close to your gate/garage door or if there are stationary objects not visible behind your vehicle. This is also a great feature that can save lives and prevent damage to your car.
What is Blind Spot Warning?
Blind Spot Warning is the same as Blind Spot Detection. Auto manufacturers use both terms interchangeably.
What is a Heads-Up Display?
A Heads-Up Display is a digital transparent display that is projected onto your windshield with the same information located on your dashboard such as Speedometer, Navigation, Tachometers, etc. It helps drivers maintain focus on driving without having to look away from the road.
What is Night Vision?
It's an infrared camera mounted on the windshield that detects objects further ahead than your headlights can reach and displays the images on your dashboard or a section of your windshield.
Will my built-in safety features (ADAS) work after I replace my windshield?
Yes and no. The first generation ADAS may require a recalibration at the dealership. Today, most cars built with these safety features can self-calibrate. Please consult the owner's manual for instructions.
If I go through my insurance, will they cover the calibration fees?
Yes, your insurance should cover 100% of the calibration fees. If you go through your insurance for your windshield replacement, we can arrange that for you.
If you would like to find out more information, give Low Budget Auto Glass a call at (408) 960-2143!

Ok, yeah, so it's Japanese X-Men.
What They Say:
Rinka is a high school student in Tokyo trying to make ends meet while supporting herself and her father. Her ordinary life takes a turn for the extraordinary when she witnesses a penguin and a school of fish flying through the air. After catching up to one of the fish, she passes out and wakes up to find herself suddenly granted supernatural powers. With her newfound ability to walk through solid objects, Rinka is about to learn just how transparent the world can be. From the creator of Ga-Rei-Zero comes an adventure that shows how out-of-the-ordinary abilities of high school students can send a powerful message to evildoers the world over.
The Review:
Content: (please note that content portions of a review may contain spoilers)
If the above picture of Wolverine… uh, Rinka's dad didn't quite drive the point home, Tokyo ESP has basically become (or has always been) a wacky version of the X-Men. Which can be an incredibly entertaining thing, especially if you're into weird Japanese humor. A basic litmus test of whether or not this show will hold appeal for you is whether you want to see a girl attack Peter Venkman of the Ghostbusters with her pet penguin, Peggy. If you think this sounds stupid, you might want to pass. If you think it sounds awesomely stupid, then it looks like we're set for quite a ride.
