E-Team during the Holidays
December 21, 2009
Ephesians 6:12-20 (New King James Version)
12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— 19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
While you may not be armed with guns and neck chains like Mr. T. and the A-Team, you are armed with the weapons of spiritual warfare.
The E-Team has formed in Southwest Missouri.(Still accepting Christian believers to join. Those of you around the country, especially the Way of the Master people, pray for this group. WOTM people you are apart of the SW Missouri team in Spirit through your prayers.)
I will be leaving tomorrow. One day on the bus, then I arrive in Joplin, Missouri in the morning. I am so excited to see family. It has been last Christmas since returning home. It will be a blessing to see family and friends. More exciting, God has allowed me to join with others in Southwest Missouri to share our faith(evangelizing) in Jesus.
Doing evangelism back home comes with different scenarios than in Knoxville. Evangelizing in my hometown, I will share my faith with those I know more personally than the three years I have lived in Knoxville. Joplin-area is quite smaller than Knoxville. I am not intimidated by the fact of being potentially being rejected by acquaintances.(It is not me or anyone on the Evangelism team being rejected but many will reject the salvation message of Jesus and Him Crucified.) I am just an instrument in the Lord's hand. Places to evangelize are smaller and limited than Knoxville.(Yet, everyone in all areas, both small and large, need the message of Jesus saving them from their destructive paths.)
If you share your faith in Jesus, prepare to be rejected. If it happened to God and the men he used in the Bible, we should expect the same to us.(I Samuel 8:7 is a great example of people rejecting God as their King.) We will get caught in the crossfire due to being the messengers. We should not be afraid of rejection. Evil man can only do so much to us.
Matthew 10:27-28, 32 (New King James Version)
27 "Whatever I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops. 28 And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
32 "Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. 33 But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.
This verse in an encouragement to the believer sharing their faith.
Merry Christmas to all. Remember the greatest gift you can receive, if you are not a Christian, is accepting Jesus as your Savior. Just turn away from you selfish lifestyles and put your trust in the truth of Jesus Christ.
Psalm 24:1-6
May 18, 2009
Psalm 24:1-6 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)
1 The earth and everything in it, the world and its inhabitants, belong to the LORD; 2 for He laid its foundation on the seas and established it on the rivers. 3 Who may ascend the mountain of the LORD? Who may stand in His holy place? 4 The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not set his mind on what is false, and who has not sworn deceitfully. 5 He will receive blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. 6 Such is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob.
With the blood sacrifice of our Savior, Jesus, we can stand before our father. Without Jesus, we would be unable to even approach our Heavenly Father. Thank you Jesus for taking our punishment so we can spend eternity with you.

First up was my main light, a thirty-six inch light fixture that I got from Karen. I hung it from the drop-ceiling using velcro ties and some excess chain from Jenny's project to add a light to the living room.
Next up, creating a light box (of sorts) out of an old bookcase that I had sitting around. I picked up a couple of twenty-four inch light fixtures from Home Depot this afternoon, to replace my previous fixtures. I found that the low-power versions would not properly start up the flourescents, unless I physically moved the bulbs around. Not terribly optimal since I wanted all of this to be automated. A few wire connectors and screws later, I have what you see above. I've tied them all into an outdoor timer (since it can handle grounded plugs), and hopefully none of these will set the house on fire.
You can see all of the photos here
So far, I'm happy with how things look. The time works, and all of the bulbs come on when I give them juice (a definite plus.) Now I just need to find a bulb to replace the white bulb in my large grow light. Naturally, HD had a large assortment of 24" and 48" bulbs. But only one type of 36" bulb, but it wasn't a full-spectrum bulb. Oh well, I'm sure I can find one soon enough.
But until then, it's time to start planting some seeds and getting seedlings ready for the ground. I'm hoping that this warm winter we've had will mean I can plant fairly early. Of course, I fully expect a real cold snap to come along and ruin all of this. For the curious, below is my list of seeds that I ordered. I'm sure I won't plant all of the varieties this year, but hopefully I'll get a fair amount into some dirt.

Apple says its been mistakenly underestimating the number of readers using its News app, reports the WSJ.
Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice president of Internet Software and Services, said the company missed the error as it focused on other aspects of the product. The company didn't explain how the problem occurred or say exactly when it might be rectified.
"We're in the process of fixing that now, but our numbers are lower than reality," Cue said. "We don't know what the right number is," but he noted that it was better to undercount traffic than overcount.
Despite the bug Cue said Apple is pleased with its News app thus far and has received mostly positive feedback from publishers. Cue added that usage has "scaled very fast…but it doesn't mean we don't all want more."
Even with the misreported number of readers, publishers say that they expected more traffic from Apple News. "The traffic has been modest relative to the enormous install base of iOS devices," said Julie Hansen, president of Business Insider.
So far Apple reports that 40 million people have used the News app to date but it didn't disclose how many readers use the app regularly.

By Gerard d'Aboville, Paul Theroux
The amazing actual tale of 1 man's heroic conflict opposed to very unlikely odds to move the significant Pacific.
This is the really good precise tale of 1 man's heroic conflict opposed to most unlikely odds, a story of ache and agony, bravery and utter solitude, a story that leads to a victory not just over the implacable ocean yet over himself to boot.
At the age of forty-five, Gerard d'Aboville got down to row around the Pacific Ocean from Japan to the us. Taking his rowboat the Sector, which had a dwelling compartment thirty-one inches excessive, containing a bunk, one-burner range, and a ham radio, d'Aboville made his method throughout an ocean 6,200 miles vast. although he rowed twelve hours an afternoon, battled cyclones and headwinds that stored him in a single position for days at a time, used to be capsized dozens of occasions forty-foot waves that hit him like cannonballs, he by no means surrender; even if he used to be trapped the wrong way up within his cabin for nearly hours whereas approximately depleting his oxygen attempting to correct the boat.
One hundred and thirty-four days after his departure, d'Aboville arrived within the little fishing village of Ilwaco, Washington, leaving his physique bruised and battered, and weighing thirty-seven kilos much less. this is often his story.

Bad omen. The Japanese engineer put in a call to the French importer. Had modifications been made on the instrument? This gave our French colleague a readymade out. "If the radio isn't working, it's probably because of the modifications made specifically at Monsieur d'Aboville's request. " That was all the Japanese manufacturer needed to hear. Relieving the radio of all its carefully structured modifications, he returned it to us in its pristine state. The only problem was, in its pristine state the radio still didn't work.
A new retreat into private chambers by all six. ' " June 18 Back in Tokyo. Sector's agent, Jack Sagazaki, had done a first-rate job on the press conference. The room was packed with journalists and, in addition, the French ambassador had graced the event with his presence, which lent the project an authoritative air that it needed badly. During the introductory remarks, which were going on forever, I thought back to the press conference we had held in Paris a few weeks before. We had carefully placed the personal representative of the Japanese ambassador to France in the front row.
The rain didn't stop our progress, but it did dampen our fragile morale. One did not need a crystal ball to know that my trials and tribulations had only begun. The Riverside Hotel, where we were staying, was not exactly what one would call a palace. The intrepid traveler was greeted by a floor covering not of wool carpet but of a kind of plastic matting, bright green in color, like an artificial lawn. The beds were a mite small, which had a certain virtue in that, had they been standard length, they would have spilled out into the hallway, and had they been any wider, the room would have been wall-to-wall bed.

"Nat Turner;" or The "Old Red" Gone to His Last Earth
In a letter to the editor signed simply "B" from King William County, Virginia, the author gives an account of the hunt for a red fox referred to both as Nat Turner and, more affectionately, "Old Nat." As his name would suggest, "Old Nat" was a particularly cunning fox who narrowly escaped capture several times. During the hunt, the fox "according to custom, had swam the river," reminiscent of the swamps that Turner supposedly hid in following his rebellion. In this particular hunt, the "far-famed and often victorious" Turner is finally captured:
He made but a feeble struggle before he was put to earth, in the same cave to which he has been several times forced by Mr. Pollard's pack. After giving him some time to rest, he was dug and turned loose…he was taken in about five or ten minutes. Thus fell the renowned Nat Turner.
The editor of the Turf Register asks, "Was it fair or sportsmanlike, to bag the gallant old red? No; if he could not be fairly run down and killed in the open field, he should have been left to run another day." He suggests that the fox's name had caused his captors to be cruel: "Give him a bad name, and hang him…they called him Nat Turner, and then no fate was too severe for him!"
The tale of "Old Nat" seems to have stayed in the minds of American Turf Register readers, as ten years after this account was published, the Spirit of the Times printed an article entitled "Fishing in Kentucky: A Second 'Nat Turner,' and New Mode of Angling." The article references "Old Nat," writing "we have a Nat Turner in this neighborhood—not a fox, but a fish—who has hitherto baffled all attempts to take him." Unlike his predecessor, this cunning animal had not yet been caught.
The complete article is available here.

AIUI, for the purposes of this puzzle, /each/ of the queens is assumed to be of its own distinct colour. --cut: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_queens_puzzle -- The eight queens puzzle is the problem of placing eight chess queens on an 8W8 chessboard so that no two queens attack each other. Thus, a solution requires that no two queens share the same row, column, or diagonal. The eight queens puzzle is an example of the more general n-queens problem of placing n queens on an nWn chessboard, where solutions exist for all natural numbers n with the exception of 2 and 3. --cut: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_queens_puzzle -- -- FSF associate member #7257

Boost your child's STEM skills in the great outdoors with one of these enriching outside activities.
Your child's vast collection of LEGO Bricks has served as a great brain-building activity. Kits teach them how to follow directions while exposing them to new design and building solutions. And when they eventually take apart the models and send the pieces into the "hive," they gain more options to build and create.
Clearly, you have to find a way to corral all those little pieces. Yet, organizing LEGO Bricks can turn into a dilemma. Do you spend time pawing through big open bins or do you spend time organizing? You'll find no shortage of bloggers who have created catalog-worthy bin and shelving systems. But if you're looking for something different, here's a more functional approach that will take your child through their entire construction career.
Phase 1: Sifting: Toy stores sell big bins with different-sized sifters that are most helpful when it comes to sorting LEGO Bricks by size: teeny, small and medium/large. Just load them in through the top, start shaking, and the smallest pieces will fall to the bottom. Until your collection reaches a real growth spurt, this is an easy way to sort and store. Later on, keep it around as a useful sorting tool!
Phase 2: Stacking: Once the collection grows, try this classic method that will have your kids sorting and building at the same time. Organize chunky bricks by color and size and build them into walls and cubes for fast and easy identification. Because flat pieces are nearly impossible to pry apart, stack these into alternating or crisscross patterns.
Much like the drawer and bin system, it will require occasional maintenance with help from Mom and Dad. The upside is instead of hiding things away into individual containers and drawers, your child can see everything at once, which should speed up the creative process!
Phase 3: Sculpting: Here's one to save for the idea file, perhaps when the kids are bigger and spending less time building. Look to these amazing creations from the traveling exhibit, Nathan Sawaya's "The Art of the Brick." Then round up the family for a grand finale that will take everyone's design skills to the next level: a life-size family sculpture that adds a bit of drama and wit to your living space. What better way to transform a childhood of fun into a lasting keepsake?

AR Rahman who was among the pilgrims to the Haj had a narrow escape where 250 of them were trampled to death.
Muslims customary journey to Mecca is a ritual in itself in their religion. It becomes important for them to have visited the holy place at least once in their life.
2 million Devotees, both men and women began their pilgrimage from Mecca to Mina bare-footed. While crossing the 50 foot bridge in Jamaarad, chaos reigned suddenly and people were falling all over the bridge. And a lot of people were trampled to death. Some escaped with serious injuries.
According to Arabia's minister Amin Madani, 250 were dead and 300 were injured. It was reported that the dead were sidelined in the path leading to the holy place. The injured were admitted in the closest hospital.
A lot of Muslims from Tamilnadu also began the holy pilgrimage. AR Rahman was also one of them, who went along with his mother. It was miraculous that both of them escaped unhurt.
AR Rahman had been to Mecca on the 28th of January. He stayed along with his fellow travellers. This is what he said.
"I was responding to a call 3 years back asking me to come to Mecca. I told that to my mother and we both planned the trip this time. Due to the heavy workload I came here a little late. If I knew before hand that the journey could have been completed in 5 days, I would have started a little earlier. I was under the impression that it would take me atleast one whole month for the tour. I see the real meaning of equality here, with everybody staying together and wearing the same clothes not caring about their social status."

History is where you begin learning. If you don't draw lessons from history then you won't survive in future.
I pity some of the thinkings people are exhibiting here it's all due to ignoring history.
You are leaving in nice homes with all luxury. Have you ever faced trouble with people taking your lands,house then think again or ask
question to people who used live in kashmir
like me.We used to own nice home and a orchid. All is gone. Nobody is help not even BJP.
I listen to ARR all times. In my opinion he is second best in indian music industry (after IRR). Somebody took advantage of his family's situation and converted them to islam.I pity that.
I saw that happening to many friends.

agneyen, I am sorry to differ on one issue. It wasnt like someone took advantage of his family situation. ARR was mature enough to think rationally to make that decision. I am sure there may have been emotional conviction too. But definitely he has his reasons and lets not blame others for it, this surely was not anything coercive.

well something is clear now. All these time ARR bashers are hating ARR not because of his music style but some other factor(i.e. him being a muslim). This is because this same ARR bashers are really cofortable with HJ's and YSR's music, who follow the same style of ARR. If this is true then atleast we ARR fans can feel happy that they dont have anything to do with his music.

Eugenia Nell Duncan, 78, wife of James E. Duncan, died Friday, Nov. 2, 2007, after a long courageous battle with Diabetes.
She was born in Lynch, Ky., to the late Eugene and Sarah Livesay on Nov. 1, 1929. She was married to her husband on April 14, 1947.
When her husband was recalled to the USAF in Oct. 1950, she became a military wife for the next 21 years. She filled this role with valor. She was with her husband for four years in France and traveled to most of the nations on the European Continent. She also spent four wonderful years at Hickam AFB Hawaii, traveling to most of the Hawaiian Islands. She also resided at several stateside bases.
All of her role as military wife was not in traveling. She was the President of the NCO Wives clubs at Chaumont, France, Charleston AFB, SC, Fort Ritchie, MD, and Hickam AFB, Hawaii. She was also a Grey Lady at the Hospital at Chaumont AB, France. Additionally she was on the NCO Wives Golf Team and the NCO Wives Bowling Team at several bases. She was a Cub Scout Leader at Charleston and a Girl Scout Leader at Fort Ritchie. Her proudest accomplishment was being selected as a member of the Governor's Art Council for the state of Hawaii (at the time the only USAF wife to be selected for that position in the state's history).
She was predeceased by her parents; her daughter, Sarah Joyce (Jody) Duncan Bolen; a brother, Oral Livesay; two sisters, Della Kelly and Claudia Henke.
Survivors are her husband of 60 years, James (Jim or Eddie); a son, Stephen E. Duncan and his family of Copperas Cove, Texas; a sister, Beatrice Little of Rantoul, Ill., and a brother, William Joseph Livesay and wife of Salem, Ind.; two grandchildren, Patrick Bolen of Danville, Va., and Shannon Nicole Bolen of Riner, Va.; two great-grandchildren and two favorite nieces, Judy Stewart of Cincinnati, Ohio, and Debbie Copeland of Wake Forest, N.C.; a sister-in-law, Jennie Varner of Henderson, N.C., and brother- in-law, George Duncan and family of Knoxville, Tenn.; and other nieces and nephews.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 1 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 6, at Parklawn-Wood Funeral Home with interment to follow in Parklawn Memorial Park. The family will receive friends from 5 to 7 p.m. Monday at the funeral home.
Arrangements are under the care of Parklawn-Wood Funeral Home, 2551 N. Armistead Ave., Hampton.

I just woke from a horrible dream, I though writing it down might be useful to me or someone who is writing a story.
this is not part of any other story, just yet.
Harry entered the house in Cambridge, a large tudor style house, authentic if he could tell anything about ancient architecture. Ginny was in the kitchen, packing up objects and books. Her face brightened to see Harry. Oh Harry, it's good to have ou back" she wiggled with what could only be interpreted as excitement. He looked around at the empty shelves, the haphazard furniture the piles of discarded items.
"Where is she?" he glared at her. Her face twitched in anger for a moment, and then lit up with glee.. "She's upstairs in the library, where else would she be?"
Harry left the kitchen and made his way up the stairs to the great room which had been converted to a library/haven.. He entered, the walls were covered with shelves from floor to ceiling, and almost all of them were empty, the massive collection if books gone. The artifacts were gone, the soul of the place was gone. A scrape and Harry turned to see Hermione shuffle into the room from the loo. she looked..ghastly, her hair was frazzly and linp, she had put on a lot of weight, and it made her look like the blimp version of Hermione.. she must have gained eighty pounds since he had seen her last.. it had been a year when he had been called out of the country on what seemed to be an important and critical mission.. it had taken the best part of a year to figure out that it was a plot to capture him and get him under control.. he had not spoken to her for almost that whole year, not had an owl, nothing.
she looked at him with red rhuemy eyes, as if she had been crying a lot..because she had. The tears started to flow again and Harry stepped forward to envelop her in his arms..
"What happened, where's Hedwig, what happened to you, your books..everything?"
Hermione sniffed and kept her face buried in his shoulder..she was muffled in her speech..
"They came to the door a week after you left..it was Ron and Ginny, so I trusted them.. they were friends, after all. they tied me to a chair and forced me to drink potions, and then claimed eveerything here as spoils of war, and that I was a criminal, stealing magic, and not entitled to any of it....." she sniffled and held him tightly. Ginny took all the artifacts and sold them at an auction.. it was horrible seeing people that I knew to be blood sympathisers here in my own house bidding on my things like they were a boot sale..I didn't even get to keep the money, she took it all.. All my books. gone, someone in the Ministry claimed them as dangerous..Ron..ron was the worst..he took my wand and snapped it right in front of my face.." she cried some more and Harry looked around trying to feel if there were any magic in or on the area.. he could feel several spells attached to Hermione, and was quietly trying to contain them.. he heard the quiet footsteps coming up the stairs and eased Hermione over to a semi-protected corner of the room, at least ouit of the direct line of fire.. Someone entered the room "Oi Potter, about time you got back" Harry turned to see Ron, dressed in fine Aurors robes, acting as if he owned the place.

High definition DVD player offer consumers high-quality image and sound. HD DVD player work even better with high-definition DVD which includes two hours 720p or 1080i video on it. HD DVD player can play DVDs in MP3 and JPEG format. The output sound can be in two different formats, such as Dolby digital and DTS digital. Some DVD players are equipped with high-definition recording and read in DVD±R and DVD±RW. High-definition DVD players newly produced are able to play almost all types of discs.
Due to the increased capacity of high definition discs, there is no longer a need to fit one single movie on several discs. It is possible to adapt a season of a TV shows on a disc.
The normal input of a DVD source is 480i, 480p. The output is the same if it is played on a standard DVD player. But if it is played on a HD DVD player, the output will be adapted to 1080i/720p, delivering extremely clear picture and sound quality. This process is called upscaling. De-interlacing algorithm can process each frame at 30 fps video to two separate executives at 60 fps. Each frame represents a field of video. The process allows the temporal content to be removed from the image.
Many high definition DVD players also support to play quality MP3 and WMA files. And the sound is superior. What's more, some high-end high definition DVD players process with multi-angle movies. And all other features such as parental controls, on-screen menu, digital photo browser, instant skip, bookmark, Time Shift, real-time and scheduled recording, timed reminder are also provided.

Less than two months from the complete pull-out
of Nigeria from the disputed Bakassi Peninsular, unidentified gunmen have again dealt a crippling blow to the tottering peace process between Cameroon and Nigeira. Some Cameroonians, including the Divisional Officer of Kombo Abedimo-Bakassi, Felix Fonya Morfaw, were on June 8, abducted and killed by yet to be identified militiamen.
Photo: D.O. Felix Morfaw greets President Paul Biya
The DO, who was accompanied by some senior military commanders, was reported to be on a field trip in the North region of Akwa- Northern Bakassi, a region which falls under his area of command. He was said to be heading to a site which is being used to store illegal arms. Reports say it was in this area that their boat was attacked.
It is still unclear whether the arms in question are those of Nigerian soldiers, the militias of the Niger Delta region of Cross River State, indigenes of Bakassi or those of Cameroonian soldiers. Initially, it was simply reported that the DO and some Cameroonian soldiers were all killed by unidentified gunmen. This was not immediately validated by the Cameroon government as it kept insisting that the DO. and the soldiers were abducted and their whereabout not known.
However, on Saturday June 14, the Cameroon government admitted that the DO and 5 other soldeirs were killed and remains mutilated. The remains of the slained are said to have been kept at the Morgue in Limbe. A Nigerian newspaper, THISDAY, had earlier quoted an eyewitness account which indicated, "--- the militants used an engine saw to cut the dead body of the DO to bits which they packed into a sack and sped off with."
Cameroonians whose relations were involved in the incident have been expressing their worries and frustration. The younger brother of the DO, Amin George, says his brother "Was on duty in the area, when some militias from Nigeria surrounded his boat, killing most of the soldiers and staff on board". The D.O's brother says he was informed on June 9 that Mr Fonya Morfaw was among those killed.
Tension is high in the area and there are fears of a possible showdown between Cameroonian and Nigerian soldiers as reports indicate both countries are mobilising significant number of troops to the region. This is the worst incident in Bakassi since November last year when 21 Cameroonian soldiers were killed by still to be identified assailants. The Nigerian government denied any involvement in the November-2007 incident. It has been alleged the attack was home grown. Some heads rolled after the incident. The most significant was the sacking of the former Bakassi Military Command Colonel Oyono Mveng. He has still not been formally charged.
It would be recalled that in July 2002, the International Court of Justice at The Hague, ruled that Bakassi belongs to Cameroon. In August 2006, Cameroon and Nigeria signed an accord in Green Tree-USA that paved the way for a progressive and rapid withdrawal of Nigerian troops from the area. Since then the Nigeria administration and military have been leaving the area and being replaced by Cameroonian military and administration.
The last contingent of Nigerian soldiers is expected to leave Bakassi in August, 2008. Many are wondering if this latest incident would delay the pull-out. The government of Cameroon has of late embarked on projects to improve the living conditions of the inhabitants of the areas, who are made up of both Cameroonians and Nigerians.

"That will not happen here." "The hearings for the four most recent attorneys general lasted one to two days each," Grassley continued. "And at each of those hearings, three to nine outside witnesses testified. Nine witnesses testified at the hearing for Attorney General Lynch, seven witnesses testified at the hearings for Attorneys General Holder and Mukasey, and three witnesses testified at the hearing for Attorney General Gonzales." The bottom line from Republicans: No Ashcrofting. Sessions has, of course, seen it all, from both sides. He was famously rejected by the committee in 1986 when he was nominated to a seat on the U.S. District Court in Alabama. (Many Republicans believe that Sessions' confirmation fight was a Democratic trial run for attacking the Supreme Court nomination of Robert Bork the next year, meaning Sessions was borked before Bork.) Sessions went on to win a Senate seat in 1996, took a place on the Judiciary Committee, and was a vocal advocate for Ashcroft in the committee in 2001. He knows what is coming. But he also knows votes, and this time Republicans on the committee will have more votes than Democrats.

In a ceremony presided over by HM King Juan Carlos, the award commemorates ADMAF Founder's long-standing contribution to UAE–Spain cultural relations27th Nov 2016
HODA Al KHAMIS-KANOO AWARDED COMMANDER OF THE ROYAL ORDER OF ISABELLA THE CATHOLIC BY HIS MAJESTY FELIPE VI, KING OF SPAIN
His Majesty King Felipe VI of Spain has graciously bestowed the Commander of the Royal Order of Isabella the Catholic (Orden de Isabel la Católica) to Hoda Al Khamis-Kanoo, Founder of the Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation in recognition of her distinguished services to arts and culture, in recognition of the successful cultural exchange between the Kingdom of Spain and the UAE.
The Order was created on 14 March 1815 by King Ferdinand VII of Spain in honour of Queen Isabella I of Castile is a Spanish civil order granted in recognition of services that benefit the country. The Order was reorganised by royal decree on 26 July 1847, as the modern 'Royal Order of Isabella the Catholic'.
The award was presented by H.E. José Eugenio Salaraich, the Spanish Ambassador to the United Arab Emirates in the esteemed presence of His Majesty King Juan Carlos, Father of His Majesty King Felipe VI; His Excellency Sheikh Nahayan Mabarak Al Nahyan, UAE Minister of Culture & Knowledge Development; and other local dignitaries and family members.
Upon receiving the award, Hoda Al Khamis-Kanoo, Founder of the Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation, said:
"I wish to express my sincere thanks to His Majesty King Felipe VI of the Kingdom of Spain for this honour and to H.H. Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, Mother of the Nation, who has shown us the path of progress and continues to inspire the nation through the values of tolerance, openness and the advancement of women. I am also profoundly grateful to H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, who was our very first supporter on this remarkable cultural journey; and to H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Minister of Foreign Affairs & International Cooperation; and to H.E. Sheikh Nahayan Mabarak Al Nahyan, esteemed Patron of Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation.
Since the creation of ADMAF twenty years ago, we have aspired to nourish the cultural bonds between the UAE and other nations because creative dialogue allows us to breathe life into the ties that bind, be they industrial, economic, educational, scientific or cultural.
The Kingdom of Spain and the United Arab Emirates share a strong cultural history – our roots are intertwined and nourish the very identity and soul of our nations. While those shared roots must be protected through the preservation of tradition and heritage, ADMAF also believes in growth, evolution and coexistence and the nurturing of new forms of cross-cultural creative expression that serve to sustain a dynamic environment – a vibrant ecosystem in which artists of both nations may flourish.
I would like to give my heartfelt gratitude for this great honour and I look forward to continue the exchange of arts and ideas for many years to come."
H.E. José Eugenio Salaraich, the Spanish Ambassador to the UAE, said:
"I congratulate Hoda Al Khamis-Kanoo. This is a great honour from His Majesty King Felipe VI of Spain and reflects the important friendship between the Kingdom of Spain and UAE, which she has helped to foster through arts and culture."
Since its inception in 1996, ADMAF has collaborated with leading Spanish artists and organisations to create cross-cultural projects, performances and residencies that contribute to a deeper understanding of the commonality and diversity of cultures, including the music ensemble Music Antigua and En Dos Palabra; guitar virtuoso, José Maria Gallardo del Rey; operatic legends José Carreras and Plácido Domingo; as well as leading photographers Evru, Miguel Trillo and Miguel Oriola. The momentum continues in March 2017 with the Abu Dhabi Festival debut of the famed Spanish flamenco guitarist, Tomatito, and piano prodigy Juan Pérez Floristán alongside the Foundation's ongoing strategic partnerships with The Reina Sofía School of Music and Gran Teatre del Liceu. ADMAF looks forward to expanding its network of collaborative relationships in the Kingdom of Spain with other prestigious institutions including The Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art (MACBA).
The Order of Isabella the Catholic has been awarded to many foreigners. Notable recipients include: Farah Pahlavi, Empress of Iran; Basma bint Talal, Princess of Jordan; Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said, Sultan of Oman; and Mstislav Rostropovich, Russian cellist and conductor, among others. This is the second medal of honour to be bestowed upon Hoda Al Khamis-Kanoo. In 2005, she received the Medal of Civil Merit conferred by His Majesty King Juan Carlos of Spain.

Nairaland Interschool Debate – Equating HND with BSC : A panacea to Technological Advancement/ Innovative ideas
NAME: Emaculate Ife representing OAU,
Position: Support.
My brother got a call to help a friend get a job for his niece. Upon seeing her CV, he found out that she is an HND holder. It is however a policy in his company to employ BSc only. He felt bad for this girl because she opted in for polytechnic education due to her family's financial constraint. She now sells foodstuff in the market due to the employment discrimination in the country.
Constitutionally, equality is a necessary principle which cannot be extinguished by the same law that prescribes it unless it is a "utopian fantasy whose hopeless pursuit" would lead to "tyranny." It is no news that the discrimination between BSc and HND holders is becoming worse each day as companies prefer BSc to HND even if the latter is more skilled than the former. They believe in certification as against the equal employment opportunity advocated by the constitution of Nigeria. But what will happen if skilled graduates are shut from employment as a result of certification? Technological advancement or technological adversity? You choose.
Moreover, is certificate the basis of innovative idea or improvement in technology? It is barbaric to put HND below BSc because of a mere certificate. Innovative idea is a no respecter of certificate. Anyone can have innovative idea that can move the country forward technologically. If certificate is the basis of innovative idea, there should be no Microsoft and Nairaland today. You know both founders are dropped out, right?
Furthermore, the core policy of Nigeria of evolving into a technological based country is on the ruin as the discrimination against HND holders has continue to wear an ugly look. It is no news that findings have proved that some polytechnic students are in some cases far better than their university counterparts on the field (Sammyscholar, a representative of Polytechnic of Ibadan, is a perfect example). If this is the case, why do the government and private individual put BSC holders ahead of HND holders without recourse to their skills and ability? Is that not a poison to the realisation of the nation's technological development? Someone like Sammyscholar would be deprived a job because a company's policy cannot employ a HND holder when in the real sense, if he should be given an equal opportunity to compete with the graduates, he will compete with them favourably.
In addition to that, the HND holders upon getting job are treated with ultimate distaste and inequality as regard to the salary grade level (HND: GL 07 & BSc: GL 08); security personnel: BSc (commissioned) while HND (non-commissioned); promotion of the BSc is unlimited while the peak promotion for HND is GL 12. HND holders are mostly kept as slave workers as against the status of BSc holders. This is evidently shown in Banking/ financial sector where HND holders are treated cheaply because of their degree. Can any innovative idea come out from someone who has been battered psychologically with the ugly treatment he is going through? I doubt it.
Come to think of it, international companies in the country and companies in advanced countries have no time for certificate discrimination. Their employment is based on meritocracy and not mediocrity as the case is in Nigeria. This is a reason for their technological advancement. If Nigeria wants to advance, it must take a clue from this set of people.
Nigeria is so much interested in curbing criminal activities and unemployment; yet it operates in such a way that criminal activities and unemployment rate will escalate. Giving out policies that do not allow for the employment of HND or making them a second class employees will not only make them indulge in criminal activities, it will also increase the unemployment rate in the country. And this will not avail them opportunity to give out their well-thought ideas which can help move the country forward technologically. This will also reduce the pressure mount on universities for admission.
Polytechnic students are mainly trained to be practically relevant in their field. They are trained on how to do things in their field, while university students are trained to research into why something is done in a field. Ideally, the two are to work hand in hand for the development of the society as "practice without theory is blind and theory without practice is sterile." Giving prominence to theory means that no productive idea will materialise, however, putting both practice and theory together will advance Nigeria creatively and technologically. Theory and Practice can only work together if both of them are given equal recognition.
Can someone who has passion for Art class be forced into science class and cope well and vice-versa? How do you want graduates to cope when in the real sense they were forced into university because of the discrimination and mentality of the citizenry? Someone who has passion for polytechnic can only cope and deliver better if schooled in a polytechnic. This is the case in other advanced countries but it is not the same in Nigeria as polytechnic materials are forced into universities as a result of the discrimination in the labour market.
Taking cognisance of the aforementioned and the current situation in Nigeria, I believe you will throw your full support behind me that equating BSc with HND will bring about technological advancement in the country.

The original St. Mary's Academy building, located at Southwest Fifth Avenue between Market and Mill streets, was surrounded by an imposing retaining wall that was built in 1865 from stones once used as ballast on English sailing ships. In White's photograph of the wall, gated stairway, and building entry, sunlight touches both the foreground wall and the school in the background. Although the gateway is open, the passageway to the courtyard falls into deep shadow, suggesting an intimidating pathway from exterior to interior. The building was demolished in 1970, but some of the original wall remains at the corner of Southwest Fifth Avenue and Market Street.

Raft – Finding Food & Water
Finding Food & Water
Your hunger and thirst decreases overtime, more so if you are doign an action like paddling or building. There are different ways in which to quench your hunger and thirst, including fishing, growing food, foraging food and boiling sea water.
The basic fishing rod is created using:
- -6 planks
- -8 rope
Rope is made from 2 palm leaves which are found floating the ocean.
To use the fishing rod, equip it to your hotbar and hold it in your hand. Aiming towards the ocean, hold down left mouse button and release when circle is full (or nearly full – doesnt matter how much). You will have got a bite when the fishing line starts to move and it prompts you to press the left mouse button. Quickly do so and the fish will be caught and in your next available inventory slot. From here, you can either eat the fish raw (if youre desperate for food) which will decrease your thirst bar by about 1/4 – 1/3, or cook it on a grill.
Not all fish will fit on the smaller grill, so should either be stored or thrown away till they can be used.
Growing food
To grow your own food, you will need a planter, which can be crafted in either small, medium or large depending on what you want to grow. Each seed will say what planter it must be planted into, for instance, the 'palm tree seed' fits into a large plot. You can also use an 'old shoe' as a small planter, which can be fished up using the fishing rod.As like any plants, they will need water, so you will need to use a water bottle that is full of fresh water.
Seagulls now become a nuisance as they will try and eat your growing crops. To scare them away, you can create a scarecrow, but until you have the resources, you will have to chase them away.
Foraging for food
Every now and again you will stumble across an island. Some of these islands have foragable food such as watermelons, mangos and coconuts. Depending on what food you come across, you may have to have equipment prepared. Watermelons and pineapples are the simplest to harvest as you only have to interact with them using the 'e' key, whereas mangos and coconuts have to be cut down from the palm trees using the axe.
Islands can be tricky to get onto so its recommended that you first build a set of stairs on the side that will be the closest to the island, allowing you to jump from the top of the stairs onto the island.
Fresh water via boiling sea water
Water might be one of the most important things to keep an eye on as once youre at that critical stage of dehydration, it can be difficult to save yourself from death.
The simple purifier is made using:
- -6 planks
- -6 paml laves
- -4 plastic
It also requires a cup or a bottle fill and drink from.
The cup is made using:
- -4 plastic
The empty bottle is made using:
- -6 plastic
- -4 vine goo
Once a cup or bottle has been crafted, you can take it to the ocean and press 'e' to fill it with salt water. Then take it to the purifier and press 'e' once again to place it. You will need to place a few planks of wood underneath the cup to allow a fire to burn and the water to be filtered and fresh.
The other purifier doesnt require planks to burn, and makes several cups of water at a time, however is difficult to craft as it requires 4 glass.
