Culling to resume soon in Robben Island
By Yamkela Xhaso
15 January
The culling of rabbits in Robben Island which ended on the 15th of December Last year is set to resume again this year.
Sean Davies from the Robben Island Museum says they are currently finalising some logistical issues before the culling can begin. He adds that the stakeholders that were involved last year will also be assisting them this year.
The culling has been taking place for six weeks before it ended last year to decrease the number of rabbits in Robben Island that are destroying vegetation.
"We have managed to euthanize just over 2 200 rabbits from the first of November until the 15th of December" said Davies
"And based on last year's success rate it seems that we can have quite a successful period again"
Davies says the may actually start this Monday

Ani Glass on Her New Single - "Y Ddawns"
"This system is going to crack soon, you can't just put up walls when people are dying."
Jun 30, 2016 Web Exclusive Photography by Rhodri Brooks
Former Pipette and The Lovely Wars frontwoman Ani Glass (aka Welsh native Ani Saunders, sister of her Pipettes bandmate, and fellow solo artist, Gwenno Saunders) released a new single on Monday, "Y Ddawns" ("The Dance" in Welsh). It's a driving synthpop anthem for all those striving to break free of the confines of everyday life. Glass says of "Y Ddawns": "The song is a rallying call for those seeking inspiration in language and art. The dance is the imagination and the music the language. We're so busy in our day-to-day lives, it's difficult finding the path that you think you should be on. You just haven't got the time or the energy. 'The Dance' is discovering that or even just escaping all the humdrum stuff, through music or through art. In the chorus I'm singing 'if you find your path before me, don't wait, you go, go to the dance.' For me, 'the dance' is the music, that's how I get out of day-to-day life."
Feel-wise, with its sense of darkness mixed with great pop melodies, this would not be out of place on ABBA's The Visitors. "I don't feel dark," Glass comments. "But you do pick up creative vibes from everything that's around you and society is all kicking off now. This system is going to crack soon, you can't just put up walls when people are dying, something's got to give. I'd rather write a pop song about it than cry. I guess the darkness came out in the visuals," she laughs
Glass is referring to her deranged video for the single. "Filming with Dyl Goch was great. He's worked a lot with Super Furry Animals and Gorky's Zygotic Mynci. We shot it at 5 a.m. in an underpass at this massive roundabout in Cardiff. It was freezing. We had a vague narrative but I didn't really realize before he turned on the camera that I was gonna be insane. It just felt right," she laughs. "So I ran through the underpasses being mental and possessed. And the police arrived and said 'Sorry, we had a member of the public concerned for your welfare.'"
Stay tuned for an EP and live gigs.

Global stocks and US equity futures were a sea of red on Monday morning as the Turkish economic crisis accelerated, and the Lira plunge continued even as measures by both the Turkish banking regulator and the central bank failed to stem the collapse in the TRY.
The lira plunged together with the country's equity index after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan maintained his defiance toward the U.S. and refused to change financial track in speeches on Sunday.
Erdogan stated the economy is not in a crisis and that weakness in TRY is a currency plot, while he added that "Turkey will win this economic war" and are undergoing preparations to use national currencies for trade with nations such as China and Russia. There were also comments from Turkish Finance Minister Albayrak that the government has an action plan regarding the currency and will take necessary measures on Monday to ease market concerns, while he stated they will not convert nor seize FX deposits and that the currency is being directly targeted by the US President. In related news, Turkish Presidency Communication Chief Altun stated Erdogan's comments were a warning against FX flight, while the banking regulator also announced to limit swap transactions in which banks' total swap transactions has been capped at 50% of banks' equity.
As Bloomberg notes, the lira's plunge and subsequent sell-off in Turkey is giving investors a flashback to past crises in emerging markets, especially the Asian currency crisis of 1997, and was rattling nerves worldwide and leaving traders speculating on how bad contagion can get.
Commenting on the Turkish contagion, Kerry Craig, global market strategist at JPMorgan Asset Management, said that the rout in the lira "may fuel volatility in emerging-market assets and dampen investor sentiment in the near term, as markets are already skittish. But the drivers of the lira's decline are very specific to Turkey - therefore it should not derail the positive fundamentals in other emerging markets over a longer-term."
So far traders disagree, and Emerging Markets were on the verge of a full blown crisis amid fears that potential capital controls by Turkey could prompt accelerated capital outflows from other risky nations...
... and the JPM Emerging Market FX index continued its plunge on Monday.
That said, Emerging Asian currencies pared some losses as central banks stepped in to calm markets. Indonesia and India intervened in the market, while Philippines said it had enough buffers to defend the peso.
"While Asia is still largely insulated from the Turkey turmoil in some ways, what is apparent is that the deficit currencies such as the peso, rupee and the rupiah have generally come under pressure, and are more vulnerable in an environment where risk- aversion picks up and capital flows start taking a hit," said Mitul Kotecha, senior EM strategist at TD Securities in Singapore
The pressure across EMs spread quickly and the South African rand hit the lowest since June 2016, flash crashing in Asian trading with some noting carry-related selling from Japan, although USDZAR eventually unwound nearly all the move higher.
European equity markets open lower, with sentiment in the region soured by contagion concerns as the Turkish Lira extending last week's slump. As such, Turkey-exposed banks plumb the depths again with BNP Paribas (-1.0%), BBVA (-3.7%) and Unicredit (-3.2%) all near the foot of their respective bourses, even as the early selloff failed to pick up speed and saw little follow through.
Elsewhere, Germany's DAX 30 was dragged lower by its third largest constituent, Bayer (-11.2%), whose shares plunged by the most in almost seven years on concern about the potential costs of a legal battle over Roundup weed killer after recently acquired Monsanto was ordered to pay $289MM in fines as a court ruled the company's weedkiller caused cancer.
Meanwhile, Italian bonds led losses among European sovereign debt markets as the Turkish currency turmoil fueled fears of a contagion effect across riskier assets. Yields on two-year securities climbed to the highest levels in more than a week.
The Italian 10-year spread over German bunds hit the highest since May even as Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio was reported as saying in an interview Monday that his country won't be subject to an attack by speculators.""It's just a flight to safety move, with peripherals and in particular short-term BTPs hit relatively hard," said Martin van Vliet, senior interest-rate strategist at ING Groep NV. "Di Maio's comment on speculative attacks is also not taken positively, as this sort of echoes the economic warfare rhetoric from the Turkey leadership."
As EM currencies tumbled, the yen advanced for second day, approaching the 110 level, as investors shunned risk and turned to safe assets on concern about a spillover from the financial turmoil in Turkey. Japanese government bonds gained along with U.S. sovereign debt.
Asian equity markets began the week lower across the board with sentiment similarly spooked on Turkey contagion concerns. The ASX 200 (-0.4%) was dragged down by mining names, while Nikkei 225 (-2.0%) underperformed on safe-haven flows into JPY and with Mitsui Mining & Smelting down 15% post-earnings. Elsewhere, Shanghai Comp. (-0.3%) and Hang Seng (-1.5%) were also heavily weighed alongside the broad EM-triggered mayhem and continued liquidity inaction by the PBoC. The offshore Yuan was trading near session lows for much of the session.
South Korea wasn't spared either, with the Kospi index falling 1.9% to the lowest level since May 2017 as foreign investors sold a net 155BN won worth of shares; Samsung Electronics dropped -1.5%, and was the biggest drag on Kospi. Small-cap Kosdaq -3.5% while the MSCI Asia Pacific Index -1.7%.
Across the Pacific, futures on the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq were all all lower spooked by big declines across Asian and European markets. In addition to the strong yen, traders rushed into that other safe haven, the US Dollar, which traded at the strongest in a year as the euro dipped below 1.14.
As the dollar surged, gold tested lows near $1,200 an ounce while 10Y TSY yields were slightly lower.
In geopolitical news, North Korea reportedly rejected several denuclearization proposals made by the US, while South Korea and North Korea are said to hold a summit in September. Russian Finance Minister Siluanov stated that Russia will further reduce holdings of US securities in response to sanctions, but is not planning to shut down US firms. Additionally, Russian Finance Minister said Russia is to halt FX purchases for reserve, as speculated. Meanwhile, Russia's Kremlin said President Putin has not yet given any orders on drawing up retaliatory sanctions against the US as the scope of planned US measures is unclear.
Elsewhere, commodities dropped, with West Texas crude trading below $68 a barrel and base metals retreating. WTI and Brent were in close proximity their 50 DMA to the downside at USD 67.14/bbl and USD 72.43/bbl respectively. Spot gold fell to the lowest since March 15th 2017, weighed by the greenback as the yellow metal detaches itself from safe-haven properties. London copper is subdued on USD action and the risk-off sentiment. India's Oil Corporation says Iran is giving insurance cover for oil shipments, having enough term oil shipments to cushion any Iranian shortfall.
There are no economic releases scheduled today; scheduled earnings include Sysco and Stars Group.

In FX, the Lira remains front and centre of attention after more rousing attempts by Turkish President Erdogan to shore up the currency and coral support from the international investor community largely fell on deaf ears, with Usd/Try soaring through 7.0000 to a new record peak around 7.2150, and prompting the CBRT into action. However, still unable to intervene via conventional means (ie rate hikes) the Bank resorted to cutting Reserve Requirement Ratios for non-core FX liabilities by 400 bp alongside the Lira Required Reserve by 250 bp for all maturities, and the relief has been relatively limited as a result. EM - Lira contagion has spread further across the region, with the Rand hit especially hard (Usd/Zar 15.4700+ at one stage , but the Idr, Twn and other Asian units also weakening to intervention tolerance levels, while the Mxn has unwound more NAFTA-related gains to trade back below 19.0000 vs the Usd. DXY - Riding high amidst all the turmoil in high-beta/risk/yield currency counterparts, with the index just off fresh 2018 highs at 96.530, and now looking at chart targets ahead of 97.000 with fair resistance seen around 96.841. JPY - Still bucking overall trends and outperforming due to its ultra safe-haven allure, with Usd/Jpy pulling back further from 111.00 and through 110.50 to test the water ahead of 110.00 where decent expiry option interest resides (1.3 bn up to 110.05 to be precise).
Looking at the day ahead, it's a very quiet start to the week on Monday with the only data of note being the final July CPI revisions for Italy. Looking further out, there are a slew of data releases to monitor. Final July CPI data will print in Germany, France, Spain, the euro area aggregate, and the UK. Euro area core inflation is expected to be confirmed at 1.1%, below the ECB's target but sufficient for the central bank to maintain its current policy path. Several major US retailers report earnings throughout the week, and July retail sales will print on Wednesday.

DB's Jim Reid concludes the overnight wrap
What is it about August? Without necessarily fact checking, my memory is that August is always a popular month for an EM crisis. Turkey has been negatively bubbling up for a while but Friday's moves were extraordinary and they are carrying on in the Asian session overnight. Turkey's problems are quite idiosyncratic and should be relatively well-contained outside of the obvious short-term risk-off unless there's a major investor retrenchment from EM generally. However, the situation may be emblematic of potential risks going forward as major central banks withdraw their extraordinary policy accommodation of recent years. Financial crises are always likely to happen somewhere in a Fed tightening cycle, especially when a lot of money chased high yielding assets in the easing stage of the cycle.
Back to Friday, the Turkish lira fell -13.71% (-19.2% at the lows for the day and now -43.7% YTD) - the third most severe move for the currency since 1990. Five years ago a dollar bought 2.0 Turkish lira, now it buys around 6.74 as we type (-4.6%). Notably the currency dropped to as low as 7.236 this morning, before recovering to 6.58 but then resumed its decline later on. The modest recovery from session lows was in part due to Turkey's banking regulator stepping in to limit swap transactions on the Lira and the Finance Minister Albayrak telling the Hurriyet newspaper on Sunday that the country has plans to ease investors' concerns and "from Monday onwards our institutions will take the necessary steps…." without elaborating more (per Reuters ).
The two more severe daily moves for the Lira than Friday were in April 1994 and February 2001, which came amid conventional EM crises. In both previous cases, the exchange rate was fundamentally misaligned, twin deficits had risen, and the central bank was overly accommodative. Both crises were eventually resolved through a combination of 1) central bank tightening to discourage capital outflows and reduce domestic demand and 2) IMF assistance to provide firepower and credibility. The currency remained at depreciated levels in both cases. Some combination of these solutions will surely be required again although Turkey could possibly buy itself some limited breathing space by releasing US pastor Brunson.
Over the weekend President Erdogan hasn't exactly indicated that reconciliation is imminent though as he said on Saturday "I call out to those in the United States. It is a shame. You are trading a strategic NATO ally for a pastor," and going on to say "You cannot tame our people with threats". Then on Sunday when talking about the crisis said "There is no economic reason... It's an operation against Turkey." (per Bloomberg & Reuters )
This morning in Asia, markets are trading in a sea of red with the Nikkei (-1.90%), Kospi (-1.80%), Hang Seng (-1.83%) and Shanghai Comp. (-1.73%) all down while risk aversion seems to be benefiting 10y treasuries (yields -2bp) and the Yen (+0.6%). Meanwhile the Chinese Yuan (-0.5%) and Euro have declined (-0.3%) while futures on the S&P are also pointing to a softer start. Elsewhere Bloomberg has cited unnamed sources which noted that Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund which has built up a c5% stake in Tesla, is exploring how it can be involved in a potential privatisation deal, although no firm decision has been made.
Back to Turkey and for those who don't track the country closely we thought we'd lay out a simple top level explanation of how we go here. The straw that has broken the camel's back is the diplomatic row over Turkey's continued detention of the American pastor Brunson, who was arrested and put behind bars back in October 2016 in the aftermath of the attempted coup attempt. Ahead of the US mid-terms this issue seems to have resurfaced and the recent sanctions have further focused the market's attention on how small, open, indebted, and reliant on overseas capital the Turkish economy seems to be. This year's Turkish presidential and parliamentary elections were also a big factor in the recent malaise. Spending promises to enhance support at the polls damaged fiscal credibility and encouraged inflation which, with a falling currency, became ever more self-fulfilling. President Erdogan's speech in London in May where he suggested that high interest rates were "the mother and father of all evil" started to frighten more global investors as did his pledges to take more control over the central bank if he was returned to power in the June elections (per Reuters ). He has repeatedly said that he believes high interest rates cause high inflation which has mystified global investors.
Following on from this credibility loss, the Turkish Central bank kept interest rates unchanged in July, despite: consensus market expectations for a 100 basis point hike, inflation rising to almost 16% yoy, downgrades in credit rating by all three major agencies this year, and further deterioration in market sentiment against Turkey.
Prior to the last couple of years Turkey has been a darling of international investors as growth outside of the GFC has averaged around 7% under Erdogan's 15 year watch. Pro-business policies and a youthful entrepreneurial population enhanced the attraction for overseas investors at a time of loose global monetary policy and low returns elsewhere. FDI increased from hundreds of millions of dollars per year prior to Erdogan's rule to an average of $13 billion a year over his tenure. More recently, headwinds have materialised: global QE is coming to an end, the Fed is tightening policy and the dollar has strengthened. Turkey, like most of the EM universe benefitted from large inflows during the Fed's large scale asset purchases, as developed market investors were pushed into foreign assets in he search for yield. With the Fed unwinding this stimulus, raising rates and shrinking the balance sheet, associated demand for Turkish assets has declined at a time of erratic domestic policy economically and politically. Historically, financial stress tends to flare when the Fed tightens policy (indeed, the Fed rate hikes in 1994 partially contributed to a prior currency crisis in Turkey). The latest developments are therefore familiar to global investors even if there is always a hope that this time is different.
In addition, with Mr Trump signalling a retreat on globalisation and embarking on various trade wars, Turkey started to become exposed to a reversal of proglobalisation flows. So Turkey is in the eye of a potential storm of being a small open economy with large external financing requirements at a time when economic imbalances have built up due to internal politics and a secular shift in global financing conditions from very loose to increasingly tight (especially in the US). So that's a potted history of the crisis.
Back to the fall out, European banks were a major victim on Friday with the Euro banks index -3.23% - the second worst day over the last two years. However as our European bank's team point out there are 'only' five European banks (BBVA, Unicredit, ING, BNP, and HSBC) in their coverage universe with a notable presence in and/or exposure to Turkey. Depending on how the situation proceeds, there may be somewhat significant capital and earnings implications for the most-exposed banks, but they do not expect systemic implications and believe the impact should be broadly manageable for European banks. See their note here for details.
Elsewhere on Friday the S&P fell -0.71% and the Stoxx 600 closed down -1.07% with core bonds rallying hard with 10yr Bunds and USTs -5.8bp and -5.3bp respectively. However Italian 2 and 10yr yields rose +16.1 and +9.2bps, weighed down by contagion concerns. Other emerging market currencies sold off in unison with the Lira, with the Argentine peso, South African rand, and Hungarian forint losing -3.84%, -2.62%, and -1.72% against the dollar, respectively. The VIX edged up 1.89 points to 13.16 with the European equivalent (V2X) +2.62 points to 15.11.
Following on with Italy, over the weekend the Deputy PM Salvini told the Corriere della Sera that "we'll dismantle the Fornero Law (part of prior austerity measures to raise the pension age), whether the EU likes it or not", meanwhile he also added that "the government will do its best to respect EU pacts, but rights of Italian people come first". Elsewhere, the Deputy President of the Forza Italia Party Mr Tajani noted that "for Italy exceeding the deficit over EU's limit of 3% of GDP isn't a taboo", in part as "we need to exceed it, for example, to pay previous debts that public administration has with enterprises".
Back to Friday but somewhat overshadowed by the Turkey news, July US CPI printed in line with our and consensus expectations, rising 0.2% mom and 2.9% yoy. Core inflation rose 2.4% yoy, its fastest pace since 2008. This pace of price increases is consistent with the Fed's price stability target. Coupled with unemployment far below their estimate of the natural rate, the latest data will likely support the Fed's plans to continue hiking interest rates at a quarterly pace. In the UK, the preliminary 2Q GDP was in line with expectations at 0.4% qoq and 1.3% yoy, with household expenditure up +0.3% qoq and business investment +0.5% qoq. Meanwhile the June industrial expectations was slightly above market at 0.4% mom (vs. 0.3% expected).
Looking at the day ahead, it's a very quiet start to the week on Monday with the only data of note being the final July CPI revisions for Italy. Looking further out, there are a slew of data releases to monitor. Final July CPI data will print in Germany, France, Spain, the euro area aggregate, and the UK. Euro area core inflation is expected to be confirmed at 1.1%, below the ECB's target but sufficient for the central bank to maintain its current policy path. Several major US retailers report earnings throughout the week, and July retail sales will print on Wednesday.

NASHVILLE, TN (KLTV) - Daylon Mack from Gladewater has been selected in the fifth round of the NFL draft by the Baltimore Ravens.
Mack was the 160th pick in the draft.
Mack, from Texas A&M, is a defensive tackle whose motor is always running. His high school coach, John Berry, says he is such a tremendous athlete that there's nothing that he can't do. He was heavily recruited out of high school, committing to Texas A&M University in front of a live national audience.
Mack participated in the 2019 NFL Combine after having a breakout senior year with the Aggies. He started all 12 games and recorded 29 total tackles. Mack was third on the team with 5.5 sacks.

Another blast from Mother Nature buried us in Napoleon, Ohio, but our faithful snowplowing heroes quickly went to work and got our lives back to flowing:

A Crispy Crunchy Morning
It Is Snowing…
The second "real" snowstorm of the Winter season began its work Sunday evening and continued through Monday morning, with village and state snowplows and local snow jockeys with their own plowing blades appearing in every neighborhood of our little city.
And it snowed, and trucks kept trucking;
and geese kept flying southwesterly;
and work crews kept crewing;
and pups kept asking, "Go where?";
until it stopped with Winter white trees sparkling through, and a big Winter statement ended, once again;
and clean-up continued.
Winter Wonderland…Before Thanksgiving
Winter Wonderful has made Winter Wonderlands of a good part of the nation in the last week, and The Weather Channel says it's just getting started. Oh, my!
Here's a look from Northwest Ohio:
Whoa! Is that a big ol' snowplow truck slithering around the corner?!
Blue skies emerged at last, but the next storm is on its way!
Really…Lake Effect Snow Already?
Oh, my! Snowflakes and plows and double-takes! Oh, my… it's the season's first Winter snow — but it's still FALL!
It started last night,
hinted at morning's plight.
This morning's blowing,
quickly got us knowing
It wouldn't stop soon,
not even by noon!
It brought us to attention,
early Winter's gloomy mention.
The bridge was fine,
but sitting was undermined.
Trees bent very low
and branches were so.
Birds said emphatically "no";
headed off to otherwise know
a place of sunset's glow.

Our Classes & Our Philosophy
It may sound strange but, what is the purpose of sending your kids to an English class? To learn English, right? Yes, theoretically that's what the answer would be! But in reality, the majority of the Chinese parents want different things. They don't want their kids to learn English, what they wanted for their kids is to pass the exams and test, that's all. Well, what's the difference between the two, learning English and passing the exams? Logically speaking, you can pass the test only if you have learned English. Not in China.
In China, there is special thing called Test-Driven English Learning scheme. Basically, the Test-Driven Scheme teach you how to "BEAT THE TEST!" without having you to learn the real conversational English, as long as you do good in the test, it doesn't matter how much you really learn. This is what hundreds of thousands of Chinese public schools do, this is what hundreds of thousands of Chinese training schools do, teach you how to beat the test.
If you study how most of the schools or training facilities in China teach you how to beat the test, you will see that they "speed up" or sometimes even "skip" important steps in the learning process. For example, the natural way of a baby learning any language is through a Listening à Speaking à Reading à Writing four step process. Each step would take considerable length of time before the next step can start. A baby boy learning to speak his very first sentence would have to listen to the same sentence for months and hundreds of time before he can actually say it.
The test-driven scheme would ask the students to read before they've had enough listen and speaking. The test-driven scheme would teach the students to write correct answers (in tests) before the they've accumulated enough knowledge about listening and speaking. This is the very reason that the students who came out the test-driven system knows only do things on paper and never in real life!
Our philosophy is entirely organic. We follow the four Listening à Speaking à Reading à Writing steps and do each step thoroughly before going to the next and in doing so, our students learned real, conversational English.
Our way of teaching English may seem slow at first, because kids need time to get used to the new language environment. Once the students get a good grip on the listening and speaking skills, the reading and writing will come naturally. The students will be much happier and the learning will be much more efficient. On the other hand, the test-driven scheme might trick you into believing that you are making huge progress but eventually prove to be disastrous.
At Joyce Happy English, we take the pain and we go the natural way!
One of the features of our school is the small size classes. Our normal weekday classes usually have maximum 8 students and our daycare classes 10. Each class is hosted by one native English-speaking teacher and a Chinese teaching assistant. Teaching assistants are not always needed in the classroom, as students' conversational skills improves, we encourage them to carry on independent conversation with the teacher. This strategy has proved to be very effective.
Teaching in the classroom is backed up by lesson plans. Our teachers and teaching assistants carefully study each class' requirements and come up with a minute by minute activities planning for each class, as well as topics to be covered over a longer period of time.
Over the past 8 years, we have developed a levels system, namely A/A+, B/B+, C/C+, and D/D+. While A level is the lowest, almost close to zero level and D the highest level of all. We recently added a new level called Pre-A. The creation of Pre-A marked the beginning of our students' age range extended downward to little baby, the youngest student we currently have is only 2.5 years old. We are getting more and more younger students. Why? Because more and more people are starting to realize that, if you want to have your kid to have dual language skills, you have to start when your kid is young. Also, why don't they go somewhere else? Because we are the best.
Throughout the levels, we always follow the four-step principle, and that is, Listening à Speaking à Reading à Writing. Language study is not a rocket science, but without the right sequence of steps, nothing will come out of it and the result will be doomed disastrous.

Manchester United have apparently held talks with Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen as the club considers making a £42m bid in the January transfer window.
The Denmark international will be free to leave north London on a free transfer at the end of the season once his contract with the club runs out, but Manchester United want to sign Eriksen in a cut-price deal at the start of next year.
Spanish outlet El Desmarque (via The Mirror) claims that United held talks with Eriksen last month as they weigh up potential recruits for January, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side believed to have set £42m aside for the Dane's signature.
Eriksen hasn't been at his best this season as he appears to bounce back for a summer that was filled with links to Real Madrid, and it's unknown if the 27-year-old would even be open to a move to Old Trafford at this stage.
If Manchester United are serious about thier interest then a deal will need to be wrapped up before the new year, as part of the Bosman ruling allows clubs from abroad to talk to Eriksen without Tottenham's permission from January 1.
Eriksen is one of three Tottenham stars who will leave the club on a free transfer next summer, as Manchester United's long-term target Toby Alderweireld, as well as his centre-back partner Jan Vertonghen, are also in the last few months of their contracts.
The Denmark international has already spent six years in the Premier League following a £13m move from Ajax, where he's gone on to make 291 appearances for Tottenham across all competitions.
He's been directly involved in 155 goals during that time too, although Eriksen has only picked up one goal and one assist so far in the 2019/20 season.

The following is the Dec. 19, 2012, Editorial for the Santa Cruz Sentinel:
Controlling guns of mass destruction is much the topic — nationally and in this space — after the horrifying slaughter of 20 small children and six adults Friday in Newtown, Conn.
Much of the reaction to the school shooting has been the familiar handwringing and posturing over access to high-powered guns, along with a violence-obsessed culture and media, and the breakdown in families. Here's three instances, however, where it's not just rhetoric:
1. President Obama, who spoke movingly Sunday evening in Newtown, vowing "we can't tolerate this any more," is being faulted for doing nothing about gun control in his four years in office. Tuesday, however, the president indicated he supports Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein's effort to reinstate a federal assault-weapons ban allowed to lapse in 2004. While that's hardly a bold stand, it's a start. We also find encouraging that gun-rights supporters holding elected office have, post-Newtown, appeared more open to discussions on strengthened curbs. Of course, this resolve in the past has quickly faded in the face of NRA pressure, sure to come.
2. A reinstated assault weapons ban needs to also focus on the kind of high-capacity ammunition magazines now used in so many semiautomatic firearms. Obama reportedly supports a ban on these ammunition clips. While it's unclear whether the Bushmaster .223 caliber semiautomatic rifle (pictured above) used by the killer in Newtown, and also in the July killings at the Aurora, Col. movie theater, would have been outlawed under the expired federal ban, the weapon's high-capacity magazines would have been. Similar magazines were found in two handguns also found at the Newtown school, allegedly carried there by shooter Adam Lanza.
3. One of the common denominators marking many of the mass shooters is that they are young men with significant mental health issues. Clearly, we need to do a better job of improving access to mental health care to people most in need — and then following up. Sadly, mental health care has been decimated in rounds of government cost cutting over the past 30 years, which just happens to coincide with the rise in mass killings.
Federal gun laws also need to be both strengthened as they relate to the mentally ill. Current law mostly prohibits gun possession or acquisition by a person who has involuntarily been institutionalized; judged by a court to be a danger to others or themselves; found not guilty of a crime by reason of insanity or because they are too mentally ill to be tried; or declared unable to manage their own affairs.
It's true many people recover from mental illnesses and should not bear the stigma for the remainder of their lives. But the obvious loophole — exploited by many of the recent mass killers, who usually do their evil acts in so-called "gun-free zones" such as schools, shopping malls or movie theaters — is that many mentally troubled individuals haven't been involuntarily committed or judged insane or mentally ill in a court proceeding.
Even worse, despite the 2007 federal law intended to require better reporting by individual states about mentally ill individuals barred from possessing firearms, the reality is compliance has been haphazard.
Whatever changes are coming to gun laws, prohibitions and background checks have to be considerably strengthened — including private sales of firearms — for individuals whose mental health issues make them dangerous to trust with deadly weapons.
Nor should potentially dangerous individuals be living in environments where weapons are accessible. Tragically, Adam Lanza found his arsenal of high-powered weapons at home. They were owned by his mother, who paid with her own life when her son began his murderous rampage.

You are reporting the following comment to the PledgeBank team:
Deane Philips said :
"Phew - thank goodness for that! As long as I SAY that I'm THX17463M, I must BE THX17463M mustn't I"
That is my biggest objection to an ID card. Once there is a number like that it will be automatically used by every bank, insurance company, employer, educational establishemnt, Government Department and a lot of et ceteras.
I spend a lot of time in Spain where they demand your ID before you can put a classified ad in the local paper ot join a social club. Recently, when buying a long distance coach ticket, I was asked for my ID number. I refused to give it until a good reason was given. The clerk shrugged and left it blank.
I don't think I would have much objection to an ID card that did not have a number.Steven Walker, 14 years ago.

Christopher Robin is directed by Marc Forster and stars Ewan McGregor, Hayley Atwell, Jim Cummings, and Brad Garrett. The plot of the movie is a working-class family man, Christopher Robin, encounters his childhood friend Winnie the Pooh, who helps him to rediscover the joys of life. When the trailers for this movie came out I thought it looked pretty good, but I wasn't impressed with the look of Winne the Pooh and his friends, but then I heard their voices and thought okay maybe this can work. I loved this movie it is one of my favorites of the year. This movie is not as simple as you might think it does deal with some heavy topics. All of these characters are how you remember them Winnie the Pooh is still a silly old bear who's obsessed with honey, exploring and being with his friends. Piglet is still shy and timid. Tigger was always my favorite because he was the funny one. He was always energetic bouncing all over the place and having a good time. Eeyore is known for being the depressed one, but in this movie every time he said something depressing it was hysterical. All of the senses that take place in The Hundred Acre Wood are very charming and will make you smile. Ewan McGregor plays Christopher Robin and I thought he really sold the performance. He is a confused person because this is something that every person in the world has to learn. As you grow up you have certain responsibilities you can't just go exploring and be with your friends all the time. That does matter, but you can't forget to surround yourself with things that make you happy. That is such a great message and the movie delivers it extremely well. When the movie changes to Christopher Robin in the real world I was worried that those scenes were not going to be interesting and take me out of the movie. Thankfully that is not the case. Hayley Atwell who plays Evelyn is excellent and has amazing chemistry with Ewan McGregor. Bronte Carmichael plays Madeline the daughter of Christopher and Evelyn and it was fun to see her get to interact with Pooh and his friends. This movie also has a lot of very nice emotional moments and they are all very effective.
5 out of 5 stars
for Christopher Robin. I hope you enjoyed my review.

Volunteering abroad can be an intimidating experience. New travelers and first time volunteers can be apprehensive about visiting developing countries or "paying to volunteer". This page serves to alleviate some of those concerns by addressing many frequently asked questions. As always, if you have any additional questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to Contact Us.
Why should I pay to volunteer?
Contrary to popular belief, volunteering is not free. The fees charged are used to offset the costs incurred of hosting volunteers for the projects they're working on. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) receive no governmental funding so they rely on donations, sponsorships, and fees paid by volunteers to operate.
Where is my money going?
At GOAT Volunteers, we only work with NGOs that invest the majority of their funds into hosting volunteers and the projects themselves. These organizations do not have fancy offices, corporate cars, or expensive advertising campaigns. The money you're paying to volunteer is covering the costs you incur by being there, specifically (but depending on location) any of the following: lodging, meals, airport pickup/drop off, and project transportation. Many of the NGOs also contribute funds/materials purchased directly to the projects as well. Administrative costs such as staff salaries, supplies, marketing and materials are kept to a minimum.
Why do I have to pay an application fee?
GOAT Volunteers is an altruistic organization, but at the end of the day it is still a business. I, Justin, still have to be able to eat, pay my student loans, and occasionally buy new socks. The application fee also allows GOAT Volunteers to continue operating and adding new partnerships with NGOs around the world. The application fee is in line with the industry standard and is the only revenue GOAT Volunteers receives from volunteers apart from small commissions for optional trip add-ons or affiliate purchases. There are no hidden additional fees.
GOAT Volunteers is the fictitious name (DBA: Doing Business As) of JMB Global Consulting, LLC. It is not an NGO. Hopefully, it'll lead to the creation of a separate NGO in the future.
How can I be sure my project fee is being used responsibly?
I give you my personal guarantee that the project fees are being used appropriately, but that's only worth as much as you trust my word. The NGOs that I work with have varying budget structures, but administrative costs are kept to a minimum. The vast majority of the project fee is used to cover volunteer-incurred costs and operating expenses.
Why can't local workers be hired instead of volunteers on these projects?
In most cases, the projects that are supported by the NGO simply don't generate enough money to create additional paid positions to cover the amount of work needed. The volunteers are filling a void that is needed now that can be built upon to promote development in the future. All of the organizations that GOAT Volunteers works with employ local staff members and support local businesses. Many also give back above and beyond the projects listed on this website; including providing/supporting vocational training and building or financing schools/shelters/sanctuaries/etc.
Does short-term volunteering even make a difference?
Whenever the topic of short-term volunteering comes up, there's always the argument that it doesn't actually make an impact. In the grand scheme of development, it's true, the impact by spending a few weeks on a project is likely to be very minimal. But, that's looking at the development from a grand scale.
As a volunteer myself, I believe that not everyone was meant to change the world in a major way. But not everyone has to. If a lot of people give what little time they have available to make a difference, the sum of their parts adds up. If there is a consistent flow of good, hard-working volunteers on a project; they can make a significant impact even if they're each only able to volunteer for a few weeks or months.
Is it safe to volunteer in country "X"?
Safety is a top priority when volunteering abroad. Regardless of where you are in the world, there's always the potential to fall victim to crime or violence. Being alert and aware of your surroundings is necessary whether you're in your hometown or halfway across the world. If you have specific questions or concerns, send me a message through the Contact Us page.
What documentation do I need to provide to volunteer?
For most projects, you'll simply need to fill out an application, a pre-departure packet (with flight info, insurance policy, etc.) and provide a scanned copy (or photograph) of your passport. Projects that involve working with children require a criminal background check.
Why do some projects require a Skype call or criminal background check?
Some of the NGOs prefer to have a brief interview with prospective volunteers via Skype or WhatsApp before their placement. This ensures that the volunteer understands the needs of the project and gives the NGO a chance to see how the volunteer can best contribute.
GOAT Volunteers highly values the safety and welfare of the children on projects we support. Therefore, to ensure there are no red flags in an individual's background we require a background check for anyone applying to work on a project involving children.
Do I need a visa to volunteer in developing countries?
Visa requirements vary by country and your citizenship.
Check out the Resources page for more information on visas.
Can we volunteer as a couple, group, or family?
Absolutely! All of our partners accept groups of volunteers. The number of people in a group varies by project, so check with us to see if the project you want to volunteer on can handle a group of your size.
Children and teenagers are able to participate in some of our projects if accompanied by a parent or guardian. This is at the discretion of the NGO and the project team and is usually based on the child's age. Please send us an email to inquire about family volunteering.
What are the living conditions like?
Living conditions vary by project and location. You could be staying in a brand new apartment with your own room or in shared room (same-sex volunteers only) in a host family's home. All projects provide a bed, showers (not always hot water), and toilets (not always the flush kind). The more developed the country, the more cushy the accommodations will likely be.
Are there additional in-country activities available while volunteering?
There are TONS of activities available in each country! Beach days, road trips, cultural immersions, sporting events, cooking classes, and so much more. Activities vary by location and often incur additional costs to the volunteer. The local team will be able to provide you with more information when you arrive.
Will there be other volunteers?
Possibly. In many cases, there will be additional volunteers on your projects. Most NGOs utilize multiple agencies to recruit volunteers, so you may meet other volunteers when you arrive (though they probably paid more than you did!). If there are multiple volunteers from GOAT Volunteers working on the same project at the same time, they will be given the opportunity to be introduced prior to arrival; i.e. I'll ask you both if you want to share contact information with each other.
Will I have access to WiFi at my accommodation?
Many of the volunteer accommodations do have WiFi access. However, this is not standard for all locations. Projects in developing nations may have limited WiFi or none at all. WiFi availability will be noted in your pre-departure information. Please keep in mind that in developing countries, WiFi and electricity may experience blackouts either occasionally or regularly due to poor infrastructure. I recommend buying a SIM card (if you're from the US, you'll need an unlocked phone) whenever you arrive at your project if the NGO doesn't already provide one.

Maldives consisting of 26 coral atolls is one of the safest and most serene destinations for snorkelling. Island house reefs and verdant lagoons provide the best backdrop for this rewarding sport.
The house reef that surrounds Biyadhoo Island is quite verdant. Easily reached from the beach the reef is thriving with a variety of marine life and coral varieties. There are seven entry points from the coral stalagmites of the reef. Amidst these is a cave crowded with nudibranchs and ghost pipefish.
This reef consists of a shipwreck the Rannamaari. Around this thriving ridge are groupers, fusiliers, batfish, moray eel and nurse sharks. The wreck of Rannamaari was once a dredger that was used to clean the lagoon until it was sunk on purpose in 1999 to create an underwater ornament. Named after a legendary demon the wreck is today thriving with all manner of vivid coral and tubastrea polyps.
The beautiful lagoon of Kurumba Maldives is surrounded by wave breakers; these assist in creating low currents and reducing waves; conditions just right for snorkelling. Here at a depth of just 1 to 1.5 metres, you will observe small coral clusters and marine life in abundance. Beyond the breaker, the coral is more varied with promises of spotting giant stingrays and huge turtles. At this resort beginners too can enjoy the pleasures of Maldives snorkelling under the expert guidance of instructors at the Majaa Recreation centre. Another fascinating aspect that takes snorkelling in Maldives to new exciting heights is Night Snorkelling at Kurumba. Observe a whole new world on these thrilling tours offering one sight of marine life that only come out at night.
One of the steepest drop-offs in the Maldives is attached to the house reef of Filitheyo. On the northern edge of the island, the drop is as sheer as 50 metres. Divers traversing these waters have come across giant manta rays and elusive whale sharks. There are seven entry points to this reef from the lagoon. A purposely sunk boat around this reef harbours nurse sharks, sting rays and a number of fascinating marine life.
There is a vertical drop in this reef that is found quite close to the island's beach making currents strong especially around the northern edge. Only experienced swimmers should take on this house reef clearly marked with more than one access point. Many admirers of this reef suggest taking on the reef minus foot flippers in order to avoid damaging the corals that grow close to the surface; besides flippers are not needed around this reef due to the strong current.

Hanoi, Aug 1 – Experts from the Institute of Agronomy and Forestry Sciences of Vietnam celebrate today the achievement of 21 new varieties of coffee highly resistant to diseases.
That result was achieved in the main Vietnamese coffee region, which has no tradition in coffee growing, after a nonstop boosting of coffee fields that led the country to become the second world exporting country of the bean and its final product, after Brazil.
A quality award granted by the ministry of agriculture and rural development was given to 13 out of the 21 new varieties, that include 11 robusta and 2 arabica.
According to researchers the robusta variety will produce from 4.5 to 7 tons of beans per hectare in each harvest and will have only from 0 to 0.1 percent of probabilities of become infected by the roya.
The 10 arabic varieties will produce from 4 to 5 tons per hectare and will have high resistance to the most common insects and fungi, including the roya.
The institute has coordinated with authorities of the provinces the creation of a special area measuring dozens of hectares to produce each year around 4 millions of shoots to provide local farmers with the new varieties.
Vietnam has 600,000 hectares of coffee trees and during the 2011-2012 harvest, 1,600,000 tons of coffee were exported, which is valued at $3.4 billion USD.

Market needs, processing innovations perpetuate fly ash recycling success
- Details
- Published: Saturday, 29 December 2018 22:02
- Written by Concrete News
Cement and concrete contribute to an impressive recycling story detailed in the American Coal Ash Association's Production and Use Survey released last month. It indicates that 64 percent, or 71.8 million tons, of the coal combustion product (CCP) volume generated during 2017 was recycled. That represents a new record rate and marks the third consecutive year where more than half of CCP tracked in the United States was beneficially used. Concrete, cementitious material and cement producers using fly ash or lesser residuals accounted for nearly 33 percent, or 23.5 million tons, of last year's recycled CCP volume.

Coni you know what you're doing. Your work is beautiful and it will fly off the shelves. Take a deep breath and just wait for the accolades to beginReplyDelete
Don't think of them as "outsiders", Coni. Think of them as stitchy blog friends and fans you haven't met yet. I'll bet that at least one person, when they see you or your work, exclaims, "THE Coni? The one with the blog????? (Insert excited, high-pitched squeal here.) I've always wanted to meet you!/her!" Just you wait. You are a needle-and-thread rock star!ReplyDelete
your words speak for most of us - so you know you are not alone in this. I am bumbling through this life minute by minute - and thank goodness for a sense of humor!!! you got it!!!ReplyDelete
I believe we are all "fumbling" through this thing called life. I also believe your amazing stitch work will set the bar high for this event. Congratulations! You. Are. AWESOME!ReplyDelete

You have nothing to worry about!! People are going to love your stitching just like we do!ReplyDelete
Coni, for once I wish I lived in the Midwest instead of New England, because I would definitely go to that show to see your work. I have loved so many of your pieces and I know you don't frame or otherwise finish many of them - I would definitely be scooping some of them up! Such fun! You will do great.ReplyDelete

Coni.....there isn't anything I can add that hasn't already been said. And I also agree with Deborah... your fans/friends are all around you, so stand tall, deep breath, & smile. All will be well. ❤ReplyDelete
If I had the self confidence YOU have, I would have a blog and be on Flosstube and actually travel to places for the first time ALONE! Nope. So I get you. But, THE Coni as you should now be known, Everyone has said what there is to say already - and you are just marvelous, darling! Good luck!ReplyDelete
That's amazing - best of luck to you!ReplyDelete
Coni, I've been following your blog for years in various states of drooling over your beautiful stitcheries! You don't know how many times I have wanted to ask if any were for sale--and now they are--about a gazillion states away! Augggh! Whenever you would feel inclined to post pics and prices of any for sale (for my part, they don't have to be framed, I have a stash of empty frames). P.S. We ALL stumble and fumble our way through life . . . Jesus takes it all and makes it beautiful. Your stitching is gorgeous, it is your gift. It is so hard to put something out in public that you have labored with your own two hands to make, but---even though we all love you, and would have kind words to say about your work even if it was not gorgeous, IT IS. ♥ReplyDelete
I have read your blog for years also. Your stitching is beyond beautiful! I should be so lucky as to buy one of your creations! Whoever gets any of your work is getting a work of art indeed!ReplyDelete
Coni, you're a Rock Star and don't even know it. xoReplyDelete
I hope it's a great show for you and your guild sisters!ReplyDelete
I totally get your anxiety, I often feel the same way myself. I'm working on getting better, because I know I do a good job with my stitching. Coni, you are such a wonderful stitcher and I know you will have wonderful news about all your pieces!!ReplyDelete

My life is full of endless responsibilities. I play advocate, parent, wife, daughter, friend, and colleague, always morphing from one role to the next. It takes concentrated effort to pull this off. Someone always needs me for something, "Where are my gym socks? Hey, can you take a peak at my eye? Did you stop at Target for juice boxes and sandwich bags? Did you sign my permission slip?" As fellow moms, you can probably all relate. Though grateful for the wonderful people in my life, I sometimes feel like a prisoner. It's so freeing to give up those roles and just be me. I crave that respite from my daily life. I try to emmulate our book, "Conscious Unparenting" by placing my needs at least at the same level with everyone else's. In fact this weekend, I put myself first. I let my husband take over my role of chauffeur, church goer, and frozen yogurt connoisseur! I escaped to the Cranwell Resort and Spa in the Berkshires with four wonderful friends. It took a lot of planning and money to make this happen, but the results were pure bliss! After a weekend of shopping, eating, drinking, and relaxing, I was able to reconnnect with who I am. I mattered. My effortless existence allowed me to stay focused. I wasn't … Read More
Seeking Quiet
I find life pretty hectic. I chuckle when I think of my parents "going for coffee." Imagine, lingering over one cup! My cup of joe is always on the run from the nearest drive-thru. I often view my life as a merry-go-round- hang on tight or I'll fly off the horse! Desperately, I latch onto the painted pastel seat, harness dangling off to the side. So, I wondered what I could do to bring about change to my precarious lifestyle? Besides drinking red wine, I decided to explore the world of meditation-conscious relaxation! Sounded simple enough-merely find a quiet place to "just be." I thought I'd allow 10-15 minutes to begin my practice. I waited until the girls left for school-how would I calm down after their incessant arguing?!! "That's my headband and you can't wear it!" "Well, you wore my sweatshirt yesterday!" "The bus!!!!," I screamed like a mad woman. My ah moment happened when their backs faced me as they crossed the icy terrain of our driveway. Feeling like a PTSD victim, I ambled to the couch trying to embrace the calm that awaited me. I grabbed my "touchy-feely" CD and began breathing. In, sat, out, nam. I circled my neck. So far, so good. Then the chatter began, "Whose picking my son up from school? Did I … Read More

Here's How to Serve Elevated Gelatin Shots at Your Wedding
These boozy bites are wonderfully unexpected.
When it comes to wedding menus, gelatin shots typically aren't high on the must-have list. But the boozy bites can actually be an amazing addition to your celebration-and especially ones that look and taste like these. We worked with pro caterer Peter Callahan to create treats that redefine the jiggly morsels that you're used to seeing. Below, learn more about the alcoholic snacks, including why you should consider them for your own event.
What to Serve
The key to elevated gelatin shots? Go beyond just Jell-o powder, water, and alcohol. Callahan's versions are so fun because they're based off of popular wedding beverages. For flavor inspiration, look to our examples, or turn to another favorite drink or cocktail. Then, shape them in inventive ways. "What makes these so unique is how they're styled," says Callahan. "These looks add some whimsy," which sets them apart from their basic relatives.
(Clockwise from top left): Miniature coupes with Champagne-flavored gelatin, Manhattan-inspired bourbon "cherries" with sugar stems, grapefruit-tequila palomas in lime peel, and watermelon-and-gin-instilled gelatin topped with chocolate chips and served on real rind.
When to Serve Them
Cocktail hour is an obvious choice, but that's not the only possibility. Callahan recommends serving them as an amuse-bouche before the ceremony to set a celebratory tone. Alternatively, they can be offered as a "palette cleanser" after your reception's main course, he shares, or to "signal that dinner is over and that it's party time." "Really, any time that you're transitioning from one phase to another is perfect," he adds, including at the start of your after-party.
If you love the idea but not for your wedding, try offering them at one of your pre-wedding events, instead. We're certain that they'd be a big hit at a bridal shower or bachelorette party!

Cayden Camper and Jared Zoulek will have a cumbersome 24-hour stretch between Friday and Saturday.
The Pueblo County High School seniors are on the pitch at 10 a.m. on Saturday at home against Montezuma-Cortez for a soccer matchup.
Friday, though, the duo plays in a bigger game.
The Pigskin Classic against Pueblo West, which takes place at 7 p.m. at the Hornets� Nest where they�ll share kicking duties for the Hornets.
�We�re all excited. All the kids at school are saying �are you gonna win the Pigskin? Are you gonna win the pigskin?�� Camper said. �Of course our answer is �yes.� We�re super excited.�
That�s how Zoulek felt last season. The Hornets opened the year against the Cyclones, which was also Zoulek�s first-ever game as a football player.
�Every time I got off the field during that first Pueblo West game my arms were shaking, everything was going crazy,� Zoulek said. �Now, I�m more comfortable with my ability to kick and the confidence level is a lot higher so I�m not as jittery.�
Zoulek�s nerves were �off the chain� against the Cyclones, but shortly after he developed a routine with the Hornets and learned to curb those emotions.
Two to three hours prior to home games, Zoulek, Camper and the Hornets gather at the facility for game prep.
�Before we go on the field, we have our quiet time where we focus and visualize what we�re going to do,� Zoulek said. �I always say a prayer, we also say one as a team. Afterward, I always have a picture in my head of the uprights.�
That rings true for Camper as well, who will play in his first and final Pigskin Classic.
The swift turnaround isn�t a new grind for Camper, though.
Camper, who transferred from Rye and sat out last season because of transfer rules, also played soccer and football as a Thunderbolt.
It�s readied him for situations such as this weekend.
�After a football game, you get home, shower, do your thing, ice whatever you need to do. Epsom salt baths work too,� Camper said. �It�s just taking care of yourself and having a good night�s rest.�
Camper and Zoulek, who play midfield and defender respectively in soccer, both said they�re ready for the atmosphere and grind both games will provide.
�What me and Jared do is focus in and try to kick a clean ball,� Camper said. �We practice every day, we go to soccer, run a little bit, get in shape and we�re always ready for football.�

"But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper."
The year of the Supernatural ended with a bang, helping millions of LoveWorld citizens enter the year 2019 – the year of Lights with a renewed sense of power and invigoration. To maintain these feelings, the man of God has devised the 8-day meditation program. The meditation program kicks off today and invites everyone to embark on this 8-day journey of illumination.
Last year's 8-day challenge was a massive success and drew countless soul-winners to meditate on the prophetic word of 2018. Each and every participant mediated on the seven manifestations of the 'Supernatural':
1. The Blessing
2. Supernatural Supply
3. Supernatural Strength
4. Supernatural Abilities
5. Supernatural Insight
6. Supernatural Wisdom and Knowledge
7. Supernatural Health
8. Walking in the Supernatural with Prophetic Blessings
How does it work?
The plan is simple. All you need to do is just dedicate 15-25 minutes of your day to the Lord. There are 5 activities to do. You may choose to do this in the morning or the evening, or even spit it up throughout your day. These 4 simple tasks can each be completed within 3-5 minutes.
1. Speak in tongues- Listen and speak in tongues. Choose an excerpt from the New year message that is available on any platform – Loveworld News or Loveworld TV. Speak in tongues as you immerse yourself in the message of the Year of Lights.
2. Salient points- Select your portion of scripture, quote and the definition of the New Year message and meditate on it for 3-5 minutes.
3. Focus of the day- Study and meditate on one of the 7 manifestations of the new year.
4. Affirmation- spend some time declaring 'Rhema' and invoking benedictions of 2019.
5. 10 for 1 journal – write down your life goals and the step necessary you envision to manifest your goals.
"Bring new seasons of change, prosperity, healing, victories and Joy as you meditate on the word day and night. So, let the study challenge begins!" You can download your 8-day meditation guide right here. Follow Pastor Chris on KingsChat for more updates.

A "Midsummer Night's Dream" Now Becomes Reality
September 21, 2015
Mr. Trimas and the Drama Club are beginning preparations on their first play of the 2015-2016 school year. The play is called a "Midsummer Night's Dream." It was originally written by well-known playwright William Shakespeare. "It is about lovers whom fall in love the wrong way and then fall in love the right way," Said Bryan Trimas. The director of this play is Senior Brittani Favuzza and the Assistant Director is also a fellow Senior Alex Vazquez. Both Vasquez and Favuzza have been in multiple plays at HHHS. The play will be held from December 10-11 from 6:00 P.M.-9:30 P.M. in the Theater. The production is open to fellow students, teachers, friends, and family. There will be approximately seventeen people needed for parts and another five or six people needed for behind the scenes work. The students will be obtaining the costumes through thrift shops and then tie-dying the clothes in order to get the desired results. Tickets to this production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" will be a range of 2-5 dollars.

ETNA project
ETNA is an EU-wide thematic network funded by the European Union involving 23 partner institutions. It was a three-year project that has now been launched to establish a web portal of ICT-based assistive technology. This multilingual portal includes ICT assistive products, related organisations, and projects. The portal allows access to repositories of freeware, open source and commercial software products and tools useful for e-accessibility.
Working alongside ETNA, the ATIS4all network focussed on building Web 2.0 applications to create an active online community, enhancing dialogue, sharing and participation among users, researchers and developers.
ETNA partners took it in turns to deliver monthly webinars (interactive seminars delivered on-line) to the network detailing the work of their organisation. Several technical workshops took place with representatives of all partners. These included workshops focusing on information needs, analysis of existing resources and the taxonomy which is used for resources on the portal.
During these workshops work was broken down into work groups, such as a group considering the types of resource to be included in the portal. These resources may include product records, articles, ideas, projects and forums. A work group considered the components that would make up each resource such as a product name, description, manufacturer and price.
These information resources are supplied to the portal by a number of processes.
- Several partners supply an automatic feed from their own databases (webservice server). This works in a similar way to the Eastin website (the Eastin website combines data from several national AT databases at the same time to provide listings of Assistive Technology products, companies and associated information).
- Resources can also be loaded manually onto the portal by content providers using an uploading and editing tool that was developed during the project.
- Resources can similarly be uploaded by members of the ATIS4all community.
- The portal was launched at the end of 2013. For more information and to keep up-to-date visit the websites below:
