The Telegraph recently profiled the work of digital artist Marina Amaral.
Amaral is a 22-year-old Brazilian artist whose digital colourisations of iconic black-and-white images have become an internet sensation. Her work breathes new life into old pictures, stripping away the years and giving them an astonishing immediacy. . . .
Amaral, who lives in the city of Belo Horizonte, taught herself how to use Photoshop when she was 12 by watching tutorials on YouTube and experimenting.
For years it was simply a hobby, but in 2015 she came across some colourised photographs of the Second World War on the internet and felt she could create something similar.
She has now completed more than 300 pictures, including private work such as old wedding photographs and family portraits, and has left college, where she was studying international relations, to devote herself full-time to her work.
You can see samples of her work here.
I asked Marina if she would colorize this old faculty photo from Westminster Theological Seminary, answer a few questions about her process, and then tell us how individuals and organizations could hire her to do work for them.
Before we see what she did with it, let's look at who is in the photograph and when it was taken.
These seven men were the faculty members of Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia in 1931.
I don't know what month the photograph was taken—most likely in May (at the end of the 1930–1931 academic year) or September (at the beginning of the 1931–1932 academic year). I am going to assume the former for purposes of calculating their ages.
From left to right, the professors in the front row are:
- Ned Stonehouse (age 29), New Testament
- Oswald T. Allis (age 51), Old Testament
- J. Gresham Machen (age 51), New Testament
- Paul Woolley (age 29), Church History
- Cornelius Van Til (age 36), Apologetics
Standing behind them, from left to right, are:
- John Murray (age 32), New Testament
- Allan MacRae (age 29), Old Testament
One of the striking things is the relative youth of the faculty: take away Allis and Machen (both 51 years old), and the other five are either in their late-20s or mid-30s.
Machen, who had largely organized the founding faculty in 1929, would only live another five years, dying on New Year's Day of 1937.
All of the men were at Westminster from the beginning (some as professors, others as instructors). R. B. Kuiper was part of the original faculty, but during the 1931 photo above he was serving as president of Calvin College. He would return to Westminster in 1933. Also not included here was Robert Dick Wilson, who died in the fall of 1930.
Of the professors pictured above, Paul Wooley had the greatest longevity at the school, serving as professor of church history until 1977.
So with that as background, here is Marina Amaral's work on the photograph:
She kindly answered a few questions as well:
1. Can you tell us a bit about the technological process you use? Is any of it automated? How long does it take?
Well, the process is very time-consuming and more complex than it looks. Everything is done manually; each pixel is colored by hand. Photoshop only offers me the workspace and nothing else. The time depends on the complexity of each photograph, so it varies a lot. A simple portrait can be done within an hour or so, but a large photograph can take me hours or even days because I need to go slowly building up the colors on tiny details.
2. What role does research play in your work? Do you sometimes consult with historians and other experts?
Yes, definitely! Historical accuracy is the most important thing for me. These are historical photographs; they are portraying events that actually happen. It's not my job to make it look the way I want to look. I need to be respectful and as faithful to the original colors as I can. So each photograph goes through a long and deep process of research before I begin to work on the colorization itself. Sometimes I need to use random colors, but only when it's strictly necessary and on minor details.
3. What effect do you think your work has in helping history come alive for people today?
I believe this is helping to increase the interest of young people in history, especially in classrooms. I'm very proud of it.
4. If someone wanted to hire you to repair or colorize an old photo, how do they go about commissioning work from you?
They can reach me via email [email protected] or access my website, www.marinamaral.com.

Training is very important, before I explain reasons; we must understand the concept of selection. Selection is based on behavior through behavior we assess personality of an individual. While assessing the personality we focus on 15 officers like qualities.
1. Every individual possesses these qualities but scale or levels vary from individual to individual. During the course of SSB, through various tests you have to project or express your qualities or you have to tell assessor that I have these qualities in me. If you are not able to project yourself, how will the assessor know that you possess 15 officer like qualities?
2. So, training is important. If provided by right person. Training helps in:
- You learn the art of expressing or projecting your qualities through – verbal expression, body language and actions. And also nature of various tests is such that you do not come to know about your performance. So it's important that you should follow right approach for right test which can be learnt through training.
- You come to know your weaknesses. If you know your weaknesses then only you can improve.
- When you go through the practice tests the familiarity with SSB environment increases which helps in gaining confidence, enhances your performance.
|SSMentors, SSB Training and Guidance, Delhi
3. Second important issue is, human being has different state of mind i.e. conscious or semi- conscious or unconscious. These states of mind make him behave in different manner. Therefore, various tests used in different techniques assesses how are you behaving in different state of mind. To know your acceptable behavior it can only be achieved by good quality of training.
4. Thirdly, you hear different point of view from untrained people which leads to forming myths or wrong opinion about selection system and you create wrong opinion about your own capability which results into poor performance.
5. Fourthly, where ever you take coaching you make sure that you are trained by ex-assessor.
6. Training makes sure that you start believing in your own capabilities and you start knowing what my goal is and what my role is.

Last night Saturday Night Live and its incredible cast of queer talent held up a mirror to the It Gets Better Project and made us laugh. I am sure you can imagine the flurry of calls, texts, and emails inspired by the skit. I am honored to be a part of an organization that continues to maintain relevance 10 years after the viral social media campaign that gave it life.
The It Gets Better Project is an essential source of validation and support for queer youth—not just in the US, but around the world, as well. LGBTQ+ youth continue to face high rates of bullying, peer rejection, and they often struggle to find their worthiness and power as individuals on their path to self-actualization.
We'll take the laughs where we can get them, but our society needs to do more to ensure queer youth get the same access to positive experiences that many of their peers take for granted.
Thank you Dan Levy for being a source of inspiration in all you do. Thank you Bowen Yang, Kate McKinnon, Punkie Johnson, and all of the proudly out people at SNL who made last night's skit happen.
We love you!
– Brian Wenke, Executive Director – It Gets Better Project

The Arizona Cardinals announced a two-year contract extension for reserve offensive lineman Justin Murray. The initial report was that it was worth up to $9 million.
The details of the contract show that much of that potential $9 million must be in contract incentives.
Over the Cap has the details of his extension and the basic terms are that it is $5.5 million in new money.
Murray receives a $1 million signing bonus, which gives him $1.75 in actual cash this season, as he will earn $750,000 in salary this year.
His 2021 salary is $1.75 million and he will earn up to $250,000 in a per-game active roster bonus, or $15,625 per game. $1 million of his 2021 salary is guaranteed for injury.
His 2022 salary is $2.25 million with another $250,000 in per-game roster bonuses ($15,625 per game).
That leaves $3.5 million unaccounted for in incentives. Those potential incentives are likely tied to whether he is a starter or not.
At the basic salary he will earn the next two seasons, it lines up with being a backup or a low-end starter.
Without incentives, here is how each year breaks down against the salary cap.
2020: $750,000 salary, $1.083 million cap hit
2021: $1.75 million salary, up to $250,000 roster bonus, up to $2.33 million cap hit
2022: $2.25 million salary, up to $250,000 roster bonus, up to $2.83 million cap hit.

Losing a job has been compared to losing a loved one. There is an initial period of mourning that has to be gotten through before one can get on with life. You will quickly discover that life goes on, even after becoming unemployed. All of the personal and family affairs that required your attention before losing your job are still there waiting for you in the wake of your loss. Mourning is part of the healing process–it's OK to mourn. However, the quicker you can get through the mourning the better off you'll be.
The 12th chapter of the book of Second Samuel describes how King David had the great warrior Uriah murdered because he lusted for Uriah's wife Bathsheba. With Uriah out of the way, David adulterously took Bathsheba for himself. She subsequently gave birth to David's son. Not long after the baby was born, the prophet Nathan visited David. He told him that the child would die. Only a short time later the child became ill. During the illness, David begged God's forgiveness and mourned what he knew was God's judgment for his sins. On the seventh day the child died. Upon hearing of its passing, David arose, bathed, put on clean clothes, went into the house of the Lord and worshiped. His example shows us it's possible turn a period of mourning into a period of worship, repentance and restoration.
William Bartram was a 19th century American naturalist born in Pennsylvania. He traveled much of the United states, observing nature and recording what he saw. Bartram wrote of his life's experience, "On the recollection of so many and great favors and blessings, I now, with a high sense of gratitude, presume to offer up my sincere thanks to the Almighty, the Creator and Preserver."
If you've recently lost a job, resist the urge to crawl inside yourself and mourn, which only leads into a dark pit. Instead, get on with life as quickly possible. Establish a daily routine and get to work finding that next job. Meanwhile, as William Bartram suggests, pause daily to thank our Creater and Preserver for the blessings you still have in life, recognizing that all blessings come from God!
Psalm 145, God's Majesty and Love:
I will extol You, my God, O King;
And I will bless Your name forever and ever.
2 Every day I will bless You,
And I will praise Your name forever and ever.
3 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised;
And His greatness is unsearchable.
4 One generation shall praise Your works to another,
And shall declare Your mighty acts.
5 I[a] will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty,
And on Your wondrous works.[b]
6 Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts,
And I will declare Your greatness.
7 They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness,
And shall sing of Your righteousness.
8 The LORD is gracious and full of compassion,
Slow to anger and great in mercy.
9 The LORD is good to all,
And His tender mercies are over all His works.
10 All Your works shall praise You, O LORD,
And Your saints shall bless You.
11 They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom,
And talk of Your power,
12 To make known to the sons of men His mighty acts,
And the glorious majesty of His kingdom.
13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
And Your dominion endures throughout all generations.[c]
14 The LORD upholds all who fall,
And raises up all who are bowed down.
15 The eyes of all look expectantly to You,
And You give them their food in due season.
16 You open Your hand
And satisfy the desire of every living thing.
17 The LORD is righteous in all His ways,
Gracious in all His works.
18 The LORD is near to all who call upon Him,
To all who call upon Him in truth.
19 He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him;
He also will hear their cry and save them.
20 The LORD preserves all who love Him,
But all the wicked He will destroy.
21 My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD,
And all flesh shall bless His holy name
Forever and ever.
Today's Lenten Prayer: a prayer for those who mourn
Bless those who mourn, eternal God, with the comfort of your love,
that they may face each new day with hope and the certainty,
that nothing can destroy the good that has been given.
May their memories become joyful,
their days enriched with friendship,
and their lives encircled by your love. Amen.
Today's Reading: 2 Samuel 12:15-23 the death of King David's infant son

National Attitudes on International Trade
[Travel day -- heading south for the winter -- so just a few quick ones before hitting the road.]
Tim Taylor:
National Attitudes on International Trade: Americans, who are sometimes caricatured as being especially supportive of free trade, are actually among those most opposed. People from the low-income countries of the world, far from feeling oppressed by international trade, are often among its stronger supporters. The Pew Research Center has a new survey out--"Faith and Skepticism about Trade, Foreign Investment"--on the responses of people in 44 nations to questions about the effects and consequences of international trade. Here is a sampling of the evidence...

text: This good is based on the popular but discontinued OKTrends blog, but now apparently active again becus of the book release. There is some more info in the book than can be found on the blog, but overall there is much more on the blog. The book is short (300 pp) and written in non-academic style with no statistical jargon. Read it if u think big data about humans is interesting. The author is generally negative about it, so if u are skeptical about it, u may like this book.

So in this latest instalment of my house renovation we've had some exciting updates. Firstly the rubble, bricks and concrete between the two fireplaces (in the alcove) has been removed and cleared. The fireplace at the front has had the concrete slab taken out (which it was sitting on). The electrics have been stripped back in the kitchen. The Sky satellite dish from the back of the property was taken down. Tiles from the front step (which were dangerously slippery) have been removed and the cupboard under the stairs is gone!
Here's the latest YouTube instalment of this latest work on the house. I think the most exciting part of this part of the renovation was removing the wooden storage / cupboard from under the stairs (sorry Harry!) This will open up the space a lot more and we'll be removing the partition wall behind the brick pillar as well in time. At the moment there are electrics and a light attached so we'll wait until the electrician comes back for that bit! My plan is to have the flooring put right through the living room and under the stairs so it's one continuous space. We'll cover up the back of the stairs with plasterboard before the room is all skimmed. I'm thinking of replacing the bannisters as well on the staircase to something more modern and upright spindles (in white) opposed to the orange-brown wood colour it currently is.
Thanks for taking a look at this latest update with the house. That's about as much as we can do ourselves before having to get trade professionals in to begin the next projects so we're contacting, getting quotes and arranging those bits now. I'm looking forward to sharing more updates with you as the next stages get underway! Have a great day, take care and stay safe – Glen.

The skin aging mechanism is not easy, especially for women who want to preserve their healthy appearance for an extended period. Unfortunately, the skin loses its firmness and glow with age. Wrinkles start to appear, which unfortunately add years. It is hard for women to survive this period because each of them needs to look nice and fresh. Otherwise, they feel less nice and begin to lose their self-confidence. Fortunately, scientists have created a reliable product that will make the skin elastic, soft and beautiful for a long time. This specificity is naturally PremiumCollagen5000.
Collagen is an extremely important building block of the skin, which constitutes 30% of the mass of human protein. In addition, it is responsible for the level of skin hydration, its firmness and elasticity. Unfortunately, over the years, the production of collagen is reduced. Most often this happens after the age of 25. The skin begins to lose its plumpness and begins to form wrinkles and discoloration. Collagen deficit affects the condition of nails and hair at the same time. Hair begins to become dull, weak and loses its shine, while nails become soft and break quickly. The lack of collagen is not only affected by age, but also by UVB and UVA radiation, smoking, air pollution and excessive exercise. Collagen is called the protein of youth, it is an important protein of connective tissue. It is responsible both for the elasticity of the skin, it is the building block of the tendons, and has tensile strength.
PremiumCollagen5000 contains only healthy elements in its own formula, without unnecessary dyes, preservatives and fillers. Thanks to this, we can be sure that it is gentle to our body and does not involve any bothersome side effects. Its composition includes fish collagen and ascorbic acid, i.e. vitamin C. The product includes the optimal dose of collagen to deliver it to the body and eliminate wrinkles and other signs of skin aging. The supplement is in the form of a powder that can be added to any drink or yoghurt. It is uncomplicated and easy to use because you do not have to bother with swallowing tablets. You can easily take it and enjoy the effects. The recommended daily dose of the product is 2 flat spoons, which you add to a drink, juice, yogurt or a cocktail. The powder has no taste or smell and does not affect the taste of the beverages in any way. It only needs to be carefully combined so that there are no lumps.
The specificity provides many advantages that can be quickly noted. The appearance of the skin will be significantly improved, it will become firm and delicate, and wrinkles and crow's feet will be corrected. The complexion is radiant and looks younger than before. The preparation is a correct alternative to costly plastic surgery, but much safer! The specificity will undoubtedly reduce wrinkles and discoloration, improve blood circulation and protect cells against oxidative stress. The article enjoys a lot of fame and trust among professionals and recipients.
Every woman at some point in her life begins to deal with wrinkles and poorer skin quality. Unfortunately, there is no longer a rule that with age our skin begins to age, wrinkles, redness or loses its firmness and elasticity. In fact, we are all exposed to pollution, UV light, or fast food, which are the causes of poor skin condition. I find that it is worth taking care of regardless of age. It is worth taking regular care of the skin to provide it with active nutritional and defense elements that will protect it from destructive external factors. In addition, it is worth taking care of a healthy diet and eating healthily, thanks to which our skin will also save youth for longer. I am also perfectly aware of the fact that women get into complexes as soon as they see the first wrinkle on their own mouth. They start looking for an appropriate remedy to keep youth for longer, making them more self-confident and feeling more attractive. There are actually three ways out of this situation, either you can come to terms with the aging process and accept it, you can undergo expensive aesthetic treatments, or use appropriate supplements that are able to effectively inhibit the aging process of the skin. However, it's hard to find the right article, because some of them affect only briefly, and the effects are not as clear as we would like them to be. For my part, I can entrust PremiumCollagen5000, which, in my opinion, differs from other measures not only in effectiveness, but above all in safety in operation.

I was back in the office Monday, and am starting to catch up. I missed you, Wanderer. Hawaii was a trip of a lifetime. (And if my kids had their way, we'd still be there!)

Many things to come. For now, my lizard assistant Kauai and I are just glad to be back.

On January 3, Team India will play the first match of 2023. The Sri Lankan team has come to India for T20 and ODI series. There are new faces in the team under the captaincy of Hardik for the first T20. Suryakumar has been made the vice-captain for the first time.
The first T20 is also being seen as a test for the youth. It is also being called the beginning of preparations for the T20 World Cup 2024. The team can experiment and come up with new strategies.
Team India will play 43 matches apart from Asia Cup and World Cup
This year, the Indian team will play 43 matches in the bilateral series. These include 18 ODIs, 17 T20s, and 8 Tests. The Asia Cup and World Cup matches are not included in these.
In 2022, Team India played 71 matches. 46 won and 21 lost. 1 match was tied while 3 could not result. Team India has won the maximum number of matches in a calendar year. This is a great achievement for team India.
The team was also successful in reaching the semi-finals of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022. The Indian team also did well in white-ball cricket. But the performance in the Asia cup remained disappointing. Team India failed to perform well in the Asian Cup to lift the title.
Leadership new, Surya vice-captain for the first time
The leadership of the team is new for the first T20 or say series of the year. The management has entrusted the responsibility of the first project of the year to Hardik Pandya. Suryakumar has been made his deputy. Surya has become the vice-captain of Team India for the first time.
3 new faces on the team
For the first series of the year, the selectors have included Shivam Mavi, Mukesh Kumar, and Rahul Tripathi. He can be seen playing in the blue jersey.
Can win the first match of the year only once in 10 years
Talking about the last 10 years, Team India has won the first match of the year only once. In other words, our team has a very poor record in terms of winning the first match of the new year.
The only win that came to our team in the first match of the new year was against England. In 2017, Team India defeated England by three wickets in ODIs.
Rohit Sharma is back on the team
He has started training. Rohit posted the training on social media. After this post of his, his fans are feeling relieved. This photo of him has also been liked by Suryakumar Yadav and KL Rahul, who was made the vice-captain of Team India for the T20 series.
At the same time, a user wrote on this post, 2023 is definitely going to be yours. Best wishes to you for the coming year. At the same time, another user wrote that who would have thought there would be a Hitman show in 2023.

Judge Cancels Grizzly Hunts in Idaho and Wyoming
Bears in and around the Yellowstone ecosystem are once again federally "protected" and off limits to hunters
Despite exceeding recovery goals and a growing number of human-bear conflicts, a Federal judge ordered continued protections for grizzlies in the Northern Rockies yesterday, effectively blocking Idaho and Wyoming from proceeding with plans to allow grizzly hunts this fall.
After delaying a decision twice and on the cusp of the expiration of his latest order halting the hunts, judge Dana Christensen said his decision "is not about the ethics of hunting," but whether federal agents considered the bear's long-term recovery before lifting federal protections. In his opinion, they did not, according to a story from the Billings Gazette.
Since federal protections ended, wildlife officials in Idaho and Wyoming organized grizzly bear hunting seasons slated to begin this fall. Those seasons were highly regulated and carefully planned. Read about Wyoming's grizzly hunt plan here. Going forward, the states would always take into account the number of all grizzly deaths each year (including those killed in self defense or to protect property) so grizzly populations never dip below 600. This year, the quota was 22 bears tags in Wyoming and a single bear tag in Idaho.
Animal rights groups have long argued against hunting as a bear management tool claiming such a program would merely speak to the desires of trophy hunters, and doesn't consider the bears' other economic benefits, like the revenue brought to small towns by wildlife watchers. Hunters and state wildlife officials, however, have long cited the rise in human-bear conflicts in the last decade, as another reason hunting would be the best management tool that would save the federal government countless dollars, and reduce the likelihood of human deaths, without endangering bear populations.
As judge Christensen mulled a decision through September, a grizzly killed a guide and wounded a hunter on September 15th. Wyoming guide Mark Uptain and archer Corey Chubon were field dressing an elk when two bears attacked. It was the latest in a series of human-bear conflicts in the Yellowstone and Teton areas. The sow and its full-grown cub were later tracked close to the scene and dispatched by Wyoming authorities. Donations to a GoFundMe account will help Uptain's family with expenses.
"A reality of recovery is more bears in the ecosystem, which means expansion into new areas and increased contact with people," Brian Nesvik, chief game warden of Wyoming Game and Fish told Outdoor Life this spring. "Some years are worse than others, based on weather conditions, available food sources, and travel patterns. But over time, as the population has increased, the number of conflicts with humans has increased. From 1985 to 2010, there were no mortalities of humans by grizzlies. Since 2010, there have been six. The change is there are more bears."
The grizzly's path to recovery in the Lower 48 is one of the great conservation stories in the U.S. After populations dwindled from an estimated +50,000 animals during the Lewis & Clark Expedition, to a mere 136, the federal government declared the species "threatened" in 1975. By 2007, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) designated the species "recovered," though a federal judge ordered the continuation of Endangered Species Act (ESA) protections while officials researched whether the decline of whitebark pine seeds would impact the USFWS's opinion. When the FWS once again green-lighted delisting last year, plans began to transition bear management responsibilities from the federal government to Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho.
The current grizzly bear population in and around the Greater Yellowstone region hovers above 700 bears, though some in favor of lifting ESA status claim it's higher, and wildlife advocates estimate the number is much lower. Moreover, while it's not the first time groups fighting for animal protections used the legal system to stall action like the the delisting of gray wolves, it is a landmark decision in their favor. More than 20 animal groups, environmentalists, and Native tribes banded to challenge the listing, but Christensen said his decision focused specifically on whether the FWS met its ESA obligations.
Moreover, the FWS was waiting on Christensen's decision before moving forward with plans to lift protections of approximately 1,000 bears in and around Montana's Glacier National Park, Mission Mountain Wilderness, Whitefish Range, Bob Marshall Wilderness, and the Blackfeet and Flathead reservations in 2018.
Christensen stated, "This court's review constrained by the Constitution and the laws enacted by Congress, is limited to answering a yes-no question: Did the United States Fish and Wildlife Service exceed its legal authority when it delisted the Greater Yellowstone grizzly bear?" He went on to write, "the agency acted in an arbitrary and capricious manner by not considering the estimated 1,200 bears in five other separate and distinct recovery zones."
Essentially, Christensen's brief states that since the FWS had the authority to delist what the agency feels are distinct populations of grizzlies, it's preventing species connectivity and genetic exchange, and it must also show how that delisting might affect struggling populations in other recovery areas.
"If the Northern Continental Divide and Greater Yellowstone populations are both successfully delisted, the lower-48 grizzly listing will cover only two areas with fewer than 100 grizzlies, and one area where grizzles have not been affirmatively located in over 20 years and a fourth area where grizzlies have not been since at least 1975," he wrote.
Lastly, while Montana did not have plans to hold hunts concurrent with Idaho and Wyoming in 2018; Christensen's decision could affect future hunt proposals in the Big Sky state. The Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks is presently holding public hearings on proposed methods for counting grizzlies in the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem—a region wholly contained within the state. Given Christensen's decision, it's unlikely the FWS will move forward with plans to lift restrictions in the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem. But, if or when grizzly protections revert back to state management, Montana officials would have the authority to issue as many hunt tags as they deem necessary to control populations in that specific management area.

This is a meme for all you 'page surfers' out there!
MYSTERY AT THE OLD MILL by CLARE CHASE
"Eve swallowed. She could hardly believe the affable man she'd chatted with at the midwinter party had written the response. From the father's letter, there was every chance the girl was in some kind of trouble. She might be coping with a dilemma she didn't know how to share, questions about her identity, or friendship problems. It could be any number of things. Even if her problem was solely her relationship with her dad, how could attempting to make her feel abandoned be a sensible solution?
What Harry had suggested wasn't illegal, but surely it was criminally irresponsible and cruel? There had to be a better way. At the very least Harry could have advised the father to make it clear he wanted to help, despite his feelings of frustration.
Harry hadn't told Eve what he really did, but when he'd said he found people fascinating she'd thought they had something in common. Now, she felt sick. She had to make a living, just like him, but she would never use the information she gathered in such an irresponsible way.
If you were going to involve yourself in people's personal lives, you had to do it with the utmost care, and only for the right ends. Harry's advice had been deliberately provocative. She bet the mag had loved it. It would have created controversy and driven traffic to their website. But what had motivated Harry to be so ruthless and cavalier? The desire to make himself indispensable to the Real Story? Or did he truly believe in the harsh methods he'd advocated?"
Check out the book's full premise below.
My 'Books On Tour Review' is scheduled for 9th December 2020
When the calm of Saxford St Peter is disrupted by a deadly fire at the Old Mill, amateur sleuth Eve Mallow finds herself investigating a most surprising mystery!
Everyone in Saxford St Peter is desperate to know more about Harry Tennant, the newcomer who owns the Old Mill. He usually keeps himself to himself, but he's finally invited the villagers round for drinks, and Eve Mallow isn't the only one looking forward to having some questions answered.
But two days before the party, a terrible fire sweeps through the mill, and Harry is found dead. When Eve passes the burned remains of his beautiful house, she can't resist the call to investigate. Especially when it turns out quiet, charming Harry was living a double life as the famous advice writer Pippa Longford. Eve has to wonder what revelations were contained in the letters he received… and whether one of them was worth killing for.
Accompanied by her reliable dachshund sidekick Gus, Eve starts digging. She soon realises Harry was at the centre of a web of lives – and lies. There's an uncle desperate to inherit, two women who thought they were his one and only, not to mention everyone who shared their darkest secrets with him. Was one of those strangers much closer to home than Harry knew? And can Eve untangle the truth before she finds herself face to face with a killer?
A completely charming page-turner, perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Agatha Christie and Betty Rowlands.

Spanning 700 feet over Lady Bird Lake, the James D. Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge is a shared-use bridge that connects the north and south routes of the hike-and-bike trail. Supported by a series of curved concrete piers, the bridge consists of a concrete deck atop a series of curved plate girders made of weathering steel. Unlike most other architectural metals, weathering steel is intended to oxidize (rust) gradually, forming a protective layer on its surface that requires minimal maintenance.
As Austin's population has exploded in recent decades, the city's infrastructure has struggled to keep up with the additional demand for accessible public outdoor space. Completed in 2001, the James D. Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge was built to handle the massive increase in foot traffic along the hike-and-bike trail. Perched upon a series of arching concrete piers, the bridge's graceful double-hourglass shape functions as both transportation infrastructure and a public gathering space.
Located about 200 feet to the west, the Lamar Boulevard Bridge was constructed before the creation of Lady Bird Lake and the hike-and-bike trail that encircles it. Although the handsome Art Deco structure has withstood the test of time, its narrow sidewalks were never intended to accommodate the thousands of runners, cyclists, strollers, and wheelchairs that crossed its span by the end of the twentieth century—a shortcoming that was highlighted by a series of deadly accidents.
The unique design of the pedestrian bridge is the result of a series of public workshops held by architectural firm Carter Design Associates. Workshop participants suggested a bridge made up of two curves that would connect important access points on the north and south shores. The concept was refined into what you see today: a double-hourglass shape made up of two arched avenues that come together to form a generous public gathering space at the midpoint of the river.
The layout of the bridge deck—dotted with benches, planters, and lampposts—provides plentiful options for trail users to take in the view. Below, the concrete piers offer a welcome perch for kayaks and paddleboards. Between the piers, a series of curved weathered steel girders support the bridge deck (other examples of weathering steel along the trail may be found in the railroad bridge just to the east, as well as the Miró Rivera Restroom and Heron Creek Restroom). On the north shore, a double-helix ramp surrounds a garden of native plants. An extension added in 2011 completed the bridge's connection to the Seaholm Waterfront.
The bridge is named after James D. Pfluger, FAIA, a local architect who designed the trails surrounding Lady Bird Lake. Pfluger is also memorialized with an annual award granted by the Texas Society of Architects in recognition of community service that has a positive impact on urban, environmental, or neighborhood issues. – Bud Franck

Houses to replace Greasewood Flat, Pinnacle Peak Patio
- The Scottsdale City Council agreed to changes that will allow housing developments where Greasewood Flat and Pinnacle Peak Patio are located.
- The adjustments included major amendments to the city's General Plan and zoning changes.
- The iconic Western haunts have said they want to relocate.
Housing developments will replace two iconic Western haunts in north Scottsdale, under changes the City Council approved this week.
The land where Greasewood Flat and Pinnacle Peak Patio operate in north Scottsdale was sold to developers for new home sites. The establishments will remain open for the time being, and owners have said they want to relocate.
The Scottsdale City Council on Monday signed off on major amendments to the city's General Plan and zoning changes, which pave the way for the housing projects.
Under Arizona law, all major General Plan amendments have to be presented at a single public hearing during the year.
The General Plan and zoning amendments take effect 30 days after approval, said Erin Perreault, manager of long-range planning services for the city.
Details of the cases are below:
Pinnacle Peak Patio
Pinnacle Peak Patio, a Western steak house known for its collection of neck ties hanging from the ceiling, announced the sale of its property this year near Jomax Road and Alma School Parkway.
Developer Michael Lieb paid $2.4 million for the roughly 10-acre site, where he plans to build 50 luxury townhouses.
The Reserve at Pinnacle Peak Patio calls for 50 luxury patio homes that are expected to sell for $650,000 to $900,000, according to a project narrative.
Pinnacle Peak Patio spokeswoman Lisa Cyr said the restaurant is looking for a new location.
"We'll start to explore some of the different options presented to us by different people throughout the area who have properties they want us to look at," she said.
The restaurant plans to remain open "hopefully through all of 2015, at least the majority of it," Cyr said.
Councilwoman Linda Milhaven lamented the loss of Pinnacle Peak Patio, but called the housing proposal "a wonderful solution." Supporters noted that more rooftops are needed in the area to support struggling retailers.
The General Plan amendment passed, 5-2, with Vice Mayor Guy Phillips and Councilman Bob Littlefield opposed.
Phillips said, "I think we need less retail and less rooftops up north."
Greasewood Flat
Taylor Morrison Homes plans to develop 80 homes on the 47-acre site where Greasewood Flat restaurant and bar operates, near Alma School Parkway and Pinnacle Vista Drive.
The iconic watering hole opened in 1975 in a ranch bunkhouse. In 2013, the property was sold to Taylor Morrison to cover expenses of the estate of the late George "Doc" Cavalliere. John Berry, an attorney representing the developer, said the family "could not survive" with the cost of the estate tax.
Options to relocate Greasewood are still in the works, and the establishment plans to stay open at its current location through March 2015, according to its website.
The council agreed to a General Plan amendment and zoning change to allow the project, with Littlefield dissenting.
Taylor Morrison plans to honor the family's pioneer legacy by naming the project Cavalliere Flat, Berry said.
In addition, the project will use products from the Cavalliere's BlackSmith Shop in downtown Scottsdale, he said.
Additional amendment
The council unanimously passed an amendment and rezoning for the El Regalo development. Taylor Morrison is building a 40-lot subdivision south of El Pedregal in north Scottsdale. The developer acquired another 5.8 acres, and requested changes to build an additional 17 homes, according to a council report.

Twenty TVs echo cacophonously,
each tuned to the same
station, half lagging
two seconds behind.
Smells of medicine and piss
coat the walls, air.
Vacant-eyed women sag
and melt into their busted
easy chairs. Others
pace the halls or stand
in their doorways, full
of waiting.
They are ready to tangle
me in sprawling webs
of stories, when I come by
with my mop.
They are ready to show pictures (this is my son, this
was my husband)
dog-eared, creased and thick
with fingerprints,
old red lipstick
imprinted on ghost faces.
None of us are sure
how we ended up here,
me, cleaning, them
living. In their rooms they sleep,
rotting softly with their fruit.
I pick up discarded
banana peels, apple
cores from underneath
their beds, we each
dream ourselves
somewhere else.

An Indiana teenage boy committed suicide earlier this month, after being bullied in school for being gay. Sad, sad, sad, sad.
I will refrain from comments, opinions, and things I think we should do. I'm writing this post to draw attention to this YouTube project – an effort to reach out to kids in rural parts of the country who may not have access to in-person support: the It Gets Better Project. Gay adults can post videos telling teenagers that… it gets better.
Although I can't claim to be able to relate to the experience (I grew up in Romania, where bullying wasn't the norm, as far as I know; I'm not gay) – if I can help, let me know. I live in Indiana – if you're a teenager happening upon this post, and if you need help or just companionship – send me an email. I'd feel privileged to be your friend.
And for those who are wondering about the relevance of this post to the mission of the blog (well, you know what, it's my blog, I can post whatever I want) – this is an interesting case study about social media being used to help people.
Note: Don't even bother to post homophobic comments, I'm telling you upfront that I won't publish them.

The 49ers travel to Foxboro, Massachusetts for a monster Week 15 matchup with the New England Patriots on Sunday Night Football. The 49ers are coming off a much-needed win over the Miami Dolphins, while the Patriots laid waste to the previously 11-1 Houston Texans.
This game features a whole host of interesting lines. Although the 49ers offense needs to get things in gear for this game, the big storyline should be how the 49ers defense deals with the Patriots top-ranked offense.

Cathodic Protection Network Two Day Seminar
This seminar is intended to draw the attention of the corrosion control community to the basis of all cathodic protection theory
and that this is NOT how it is put into practice.

32 students attended and probably over 20 asked for my email address.
25th November 2014 NIOC
Corrosion Control Conference
Met many senior people who want me to come back and help them.
The paper was about the need for an international standard potential and they wanted to know how to go about it.
Also many reactions to the half-cell not being a reference electrode and interest in the Alexander Cell being a criterion.
This visit could be a turning point in the science and engineering of cathodic protection as the people attending the two day seminar seem now to be reconsidering the axioms that they have been taught.
The first thing that I tried to establish is that we are universally governed by the laws of nature and that these rules are being codified by science and are absolute.
This is the reason why it is essential to demonstrate the facts using the three nails experiment at the beginning of all basic discussions about corrosion control.
The main point of the seminar is that the present criteria of -0.850v, 300mv shift and 100mv polarisation, are not soundly based in science and NACE cannot be sure of it's publications because it attaches legal disclaimers to all it's advice.
There was considerable resistance to change during the introduction period and first periods of the seminar but this gradually converted to concern for an alternative criterion.
It was agreed at the seminar that the 'pipe-to-soil potential' measurement is a voltage between two variable potentials, and that this voltage did not have a common zero for the purposes of computation or electrical design.
This means that we cannot measure the electrical equilibrium when we have stopped corrosion using a copper/copper-sulphated electrode and that all the historical records must be re-assessed using a corrosion cell in which we can measure the corrosion current in closed circuit condition. This arrangement must allow the cathodic protection systems and other influences to affect the corrosion reaction as it does on corrosion cells on the actual pipeline.
The delegates at the seminar understood that the Alexander Cell is a corrosion cell that allows the measurement of corrosion current between the anode and the cathode. It also allows the influence of the cathodic protection system to be tested to see that corrosion has been controlled.
The seminar accepted that presently available software is simply graphic display of voltages that have to be interpreted using assumptions that are not soundly based.
There are a gathering number of software developers who are interested in the CPN Dynamic Software Project that will lead to the automatic control of corrosion on networks of pipelines. The seminar accepted that this is possible using the Alexander Cell as the trigger to adjust the settings of the sources of charges into the system. (TR's and controlled sacrificial anodes)
Remote monitoring is now commonplace but it has no way of telling if corrosion has been controlled. The term 'protected' is used in the sales of remote monitoring systems to mean that the present criteria are achieved but it was agreed by the seminar that this does not necessarily mean that corrosion has been controlled.
The delegates realise that cathodic protection systems can cause accelerated corrosion if wrongly applied and this is confirmed by the three nails demonstration.
It was accepted that the world is now one cathodic protection network of metalic paths and electrical influences that affect the corrosion to all pipelines.
It was also agreed that scientific knowledge is not successfully applied in the field because of poor exchange of knowledge and data.
It was also accepted that there is no such thing as zero potential and that all cathodic protection measurements are made referring to the zero that is set by the meter at the time of the measurement.
The result of this misunderstanding is that pipelines are leaking unnecessarily all over the world. It is therefore essential to be clear about the measurement we are making at present and the measurement that is required by all scientists. That is why this seminar is best attended by academics and field workers who can confirm all of the content. It is why the policy makers must be clear about the advice they are given and the effect of the decisions they make.
During Period 1 we examined the dry cell battery as a corrosion cell and compared it to a corrosion cell on a pipeline. We examined the measurement of the EMF of a dry cell battery and that of a corrosion cell on a pipeline using the 'pipe-to-soil potential' method using a copper/copper-sulphate electrode.
We observed that there are many corrosion cells on any span of pipeline and that we are measuring the combined effect of all these reactions on the potential of that complete metalic block. This is shown by the use of battery holders that configure many batteries in many ways.
We refer back to the experiment using three nails to make the following observation.
It is quickly apparent that the measuring circuit has more than two potentials in series because the readings change when the electrode is moved. The negative of the meter is permanently attached to the negative pole of the battery and the other is permanently attached to the electrode that we are told to regard as a reference potential.
The only change in the measuring circuit is the location of the electrode point of contact so it must be that each location itself has a different potential. We are measuring the potential of the ground itself, and this is an unknown variable. The voltage on the display is therefore between the pipeline metal/electrolyte potential and the copper/copper-sulphate reaction potential AND whatever other influences affect the potential of the ground on which the electrode is placed. This means that the data cannot be analysed mathematically or on a computer without further data.
The term half-cell reaction was wrongly taken to infer that you could make a half-cell and use it as a reference against which you can measure another potential. In fact this can only be done in controlled circumstances in a closed circuit measurement condition but the demonstration (involving the three nails) proves conclusively that you cannot do this in field work.
The criterion for achieving cathodic protection is widely accepted to be a voltage measurement that is supposed to indicate an equilibrium between the metal and the electrolyte at which no metal is going into solution. No corrosion is taking place because the electrochemical reaction has been halted.
This criterion has been under continuous review for at least 50 years, that I know of, and there is still no advice that is backed by demonstrable evidence, published by NACE, ISO or any of the corrosion control institutions of which I am aware.
Alexander Cell has now been extensively field trialled and in 2009 I made presentations at two international conferences in Brazil, announcing it as a definitive criterion for cathodic protection.
I am often asked why the Alexander Cell is not in general use so I devoted the second period to the history of the development of the Alexander Cell and my personal experiences in CP.
When CP was first introduced, it proved so cost effective that it became very widely used before its field application was fully understood. A short term measuring technique was required to monitor the performance, and the half-cell measurement was found to give a satisfactory indication. Thermodynamic theory seemed to support this notion as the half-cell reaction was mentioned when describing reference electrodes in laboratories.
Field technicians and engineers must have known, from the early years, that there was something wrong with the readings produced by the traditional pipe-to-soil potential measuring technique.
Pipe-to-soil potentials are the foundation of all CP work. The measuring techniques are still obscure and imprecise.
The first text book that I read on the subject was published in 1953, and some of the information it contained, simply did not work when applied in the field.
Many other books and publications that contain advice and information that does not yield the predicted results.
This encouraged me to conduct my own field research and experiments which I have continued since 1972.
The traditional technique for making the standard CP 'pipe-to-soil' became open to question when pipelines began to fail in spite of having been theoretically 'protected.
This seminar is not merely destructive criticism, as methods to overcome the problem, that has been identified, are included in the discourse.
We need to measure energy transfer in a corrosion cell at each location that we subject to cathodic protection. (Coating faults)
We can then use the electrical equilibrium in potentials and the cessation of corrosion current flow to indicate when we have stopped corrosion.
We can use this as a criterion for cathodic protection in design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of our integrated corrosion control systems on networks of pipelines and facilities.
The second period ended with the suggestion that we need to computerise cathodic protection.
The third period dealt with the field use of the copper/copper-sulphate electrode and the attempts to make sense of the measurements.
The changes in instrumentation show that the corrosion control community were continuously trying to overcome a recognised error in the measurements.
The attempt to remove the error by switching off the impressed current system was the start of the use of the words 'polarised potential' and I have explained that this cannot be measured in the field due to the fact that we have multiple corrosion cells on one side of the measuring circuit. The scientists who I met were only capable of measuring the polarised potential when the measurement was made in closed circuit condition with a single corrosion cell. All of the attempts to make meaningfull 'off potential' measurements are a misunderstanding of the science.
I have documentation in support of the material I presented during period 3 and explained that my suggested solution to the problem was suppressed by commercial interests/
In period 4 I explained the importance of understanding exactly how the measuring instruments work as this is relevant to the development of applied cathodic protection.
Period 5 discusses equivalent circuits that differ from those proposed in reference manuals and it is suggested that these are made in the laboratory for use by NIOC training and research.
Period 6 discussed a further physical model that should also be made for training purposes and experimentation. This period leads into the proposal that it is possible to create a control room where data gathering and analysis can be viewed dynamically.
Period 7 discussed the need for a training and research centre similar to that in Brazil.
The second day was about the way forward from the present status.
Each of the periods is self explanatory and the proposed actions need synchronising and co-ordinating with NIOC and the other pipeline owners in Iran.
Corrosion control is impossible when there are competing interests.
It is proposed that the seminar notes are edited and circulated to all interested parties as part of the proposed manual that was subject of the conference.
A one week course should be organised to be attended by maintenance and corrosion engineers to introduce the revised concept of applied cathodic protection in line with real science.
Laboratory tests should be carried out to scrutinise all codes of practice and advice (including my own advice published as CPN technology).
Historical data should be gathered for examination and be available for the software development team.
A software development team leader should be appointed to review and consider the CPN Dynamic Software Project.
The Alexander Cell with instructions and training should be put into use in the field as well as tested in the laboratory.
A university department should be established in the field of applied cathodic protection and electronic corrosion control. This university in Iran would co-operate with the South African University that is being established and those in Nigeria and Brazil that are being briefed at this time. CPN has followers in many countries at top university and government research establishment level that can be co-ordinated and synchronised.
We must develop the automatic computerised control of corrosion on networks of pipelines and facilities as the only real way of addressing the known corrosion problems in Iran and Nigeria. I believe that every country has similar problems, some of which are actually caused by the wrong application of impressed current cathodic protection.
Iran is well placed to lead the world in these matters as it is an advanced civilisation with a respected academic establishment.

Yes I name my stuff. In today's episode of rambling and musing mostly rambling, I'm talking about my eyeglasses aka my Selena Rainbows. They're named after the brand – Selena and the rainbow colored frames. I first wrote about my experience here if you want to begin at the beginning.
I was going to go to a different place to have things made right. Then after much feedback in person and on the blog, I decided that the same place owed me. One afternoon this week I took off early to return my new specs for adjustment. I was trying to get the deed done and get back online for an afternoon meeting which I couldn't miss.
I'm the worst about time y'all. Always early and worry if I'm not … or perceive I am not going to be on time. Instead of discussing the issue, I basically threw my glasses at the girl and said I'll be back Saturday! Went home and made my meeting with 15 minutes to spare. Whew!
Guess what today is? Saturday!!!
Per the website, the place is open 8:30 to 12:30. I slept in until 9ish which helped my case because when I got there, only one car was in the lot. Another customer. Turns out the Saturday hours are 9:00 to 1:00. Yet it was after 9 and I could tell the place was still closed. Holy hell! I cannot take off work to come back here again. Well I can but what a freaking inconvenience!! I called the number thinking maybe an employee got dropped off but my call went straight to voice mail.
I got out of the car and talked to the gentleman who had been waiting since 8:30! Mind you it was already 9:25 when I arrived. He gave me an earful about his experience. Hopping mad! I was only irritated. We both decided to leave. As I'm returning to my car, I see a Blazer turning left and speeding to the back employee parking lot.
As soon as I heard the front door lock open, I rushed in and proceed to word vomit why I am there. Of course she's apologizing as she's turning the lights and everything else on.
She re-measures and sure enough, the lab put my Selena Rainbows at 18 and I'm 22. The 4 degree drop makes all the difference in the world. They will have to send back the glasses … not until Monday. The corrected lens should be ready in about two weeks. Thanks goodness my old pair will tide me over.
I might write a piece to conclude my saga or not … if not you'll know things worked out just fine.
As always, more to come.

There has been a lot of reserving apps. Klook Ïø†Ìè∞ 9Ïõî… for unique experiences and sightseeing that have made their way through the years, and is one of them. The travel website has shown its name and people have actually begun speaking about it. However do you really have a full understanding of the website?
That is why we've created this extremely useful Travel Evaluation that will certainly provide a much better understanding of the app. We have actually identified a number of points and highlights that you might find important while using the app.
You may understand and you may not know about, but we hope this short article provides you more than you need. We have actually also added suggestions and step by step instructions on how to utilize the app.
In this guide we compare with other sites like GetYourGuide, Tiqets.com and even Airbnb Experiences.
Is Klook a Chinese company? Klook 쿠폰 9월
Founded in 2014, Klook is an online reservation platform with more than 60,000 activities in 250 major destinations all over the world. Brief for "Keep Looking", the platform is one of the leading brand names today that makes each tourist's journey more easy and fun.
You are totally free to customize each trip and plan whatever as you want. From their long list of activities in each trip location, you will create your schedule at a very budget-friendly price.
Being utilized by many, and by us, too, here are the advantages of using the website that may convince you to prepare your next travel plan with them.
Instant confirmation
Among the important things we like is how quick you can get tickets without stress and trouble. In an instant, you will receive your voucher once you have actually completed the reservation procedure.
This is best for those who need booking best then and there.
No long lines
As soon as you get your tickets validated, you are ready to go. You will no longer need to remain in long lines to purchase tickets and wait for your turn.
You're always good to go. Not to mention, in some destinations like Tokyo Disneyland and Universal Studios Japan, there are designated lines that allow you to go into faster.
offers an extremely simple reservation system both on their site and their app and often you'll discover that the tickets for the tourist attractions you wish to book are marked down. As they have actually only recently introduced in the UK, the variety of activities they offer are restricted, but they are adding more all the time. At the time of composing this, UK offered 303 activities across the UK. You'll discover activities in:
The very first activity to pop up was a Harry Potter World studio trip. We understood it was one of the finest Harry Potter London experiences but the young boys have not rather got into the Harry Potter movies yet so we decided to leave that for another time. Scrolling through, we found a Chelsea Football Club stadium trip.
We understood that this tour was only around 1 hour long, so we also picked to do a Tower of London tour to make the most of our day out in London. Our oldest child has actually been finding out about British Kings and Queens at school and the Tower of London is among the most excellent castles in England so we understood this would be an excellent academic opportunity for him.
We tried to get Lion King tickets which are infamously difficult to acquire at the last minute. Unfortunately there weren't enough tickets offered for all of us to go which wasn't unexpected really. Attempting to book a Saturday matinée less than 4 days beforehand was a long shot, but there were tickets the following week.
We are writing this review article to help our readers get a better understanding of what is and to answer the concern of whether is legit. We have actually personally made lots of reservations through over the past year and have actually been working with them as an affiliate partner considering that April 2017, so are well positioned to compose this review.
We have personally utilized to reserve a vast array of travel activities in multiple countries, including Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and Singapore, and are extremely pleased to continue to book our travel activities with them into the future.
Keep in mind that this short article is sponsored by but our opinions are our own.
Is Reliable?
As you can most likely tell from the scale of Klook's activities explained above they need to have really trustworthy systems to handle all of their bookings and supply customer service.
App Evaluation As mentioned above, the app is a fantastic choice to both make your reservations, and also to be able to track all of your bookings while you are on the go. You need to ensure you have access to information for this app to be useable during your trip.
If you are wondering whether it is a good idea to book tours, day trips, activities, airport transfers, and SIM cards with, I am sharing my sincere experience utilizing the App to book a variety of experiences in Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand and Taiwan on a trip to Asia. I scheduled all of these activities in between September to November of 2019 and I spent for everything myself, so this is a totally independent review.
Keep checking out to discover how the App works and whether I recommend utilizing it to strategy, research, and book activities and services on your next journey!
Taiwan Reviews
I remained in Taiwan for 4 days by myself and I booked numerous activities and services with Taiwan, both in the city of Taipei and to check out other attractions around the country.
Taoyuan Airport MRT Ticket
I reserved a roundtrip ticket on the Taoyuan Airport train and redeemed the mobile coupon at defined airport service counter as laid out in the booking to get my real token for the Airport train. You can not simply get on the train with your mobile voucher, you do require to exchange it for a physical token. This reservation also featured some totally free shopping discount coupons.
