We began this wonderful practice here at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church with Eucharistic Adoration for vigils of special holy days and feasts, such as the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Lent, Advent, etc. in 1988.
In about 1990, we started 24-hour Holy Week Adoration that began on Palm Sunday and went through Holy Thursday until midnight, this we continued for almost ten years. Also about that time we began monthly 24 hour Eucharistic Adoration every first Friday through first Saturday morning.
There was always the grace of God and a good number of committed adorers to make this run quite smoothly.
In August of 2000, we graduated to 24 hour weekly Adoration every Friday through Saturday morning. Thanks be to God, we are continuing quite well, with more and more people in attendance and more and more people dramatically changed and blessed through this regular one hour with Jesus!

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq:INTU) has completed its acquisition of Digital Insight Corp. The acquisition closed on Feb. 6, following approval by Digital Insight's stockholders. The total purchase price was approximately $1.33 billion, which includes options that were assumed by Intuit upon the closing of the acquisition. The purchase price was financed in part with the proceeds of a $1 billion bridge loan facility.
The combination of Intuit and Digital Insight will help redefine the relationship between financial institutions and their small business and consumer customers. Initially, the joined companies will create offerings that will help financial institutions provide new, innovative solutions to help them manage their business and financial lives. The acquisition brings together Intuit's strong brands and proven customer-driven development process with Digital Insight, a leading technology provider in online banking.
There are currently 26 million small businesses in the United States. Eighty-two percent – some 22 million – of these businesses are the do-it-yourself types who use various nonintegrated systems, including pencil and paper.
"The rapid growth of the small business sector, combined with the growing adoption of online banking for those small business owners, creates an opportunity for us to transform the way they run their business," said Steve Bennett, Intuit president and chief executive officer. "With Intuit and Digital Insight working together, small business owners will view their financial institution as a valued, long-term partner that helps them manage their business finances."
Currently, more than 43 million households are doing some type of online banking. Financial institutions currently offer primarily transactional solutions that help consumers pay bills, view balances and see cleared checks. What's missing is an interactive financial management offering that will delight consumers by helping them plan for the future and reach their financial goals. Intuit and Digital Insight are uniquely positioned to deliver such solutions.
Digital Insight Chief Executive Officer Jeff Stiefler has joined Intuit as president of Intuit's financial institutions division.
Starting today, Intuit will begin integrating the two companies' operations, category development, distribution models and customer support organizations to ensure a smooth transition and immediate value for customers, employees and partners. Together, the companies will serve 5,000 financial institutions, nearly 25 million consumers, and nearly 7 million small businesses.
Additional information regarding the expected financial impact of the acquisition will be provided during Intuit's second quarter fiscal 2007 earnings conference call scheduled for 1:30 p.m. PST on Feb. 22. To hear the conference call, dial 866-206-6509 in the United States or 703-639-1108 from international locations. No reservation or access code is needed.

Dissertations and Papers - There are some great academic works out there on the Morrigan worth checking out. There are also some that I don't entirely agree with but still recommend because they add important layers to any discussion about this complex deity/deities.
- War-goddesses, furies and scald crows: The use of the word badb in early Irish literature by Kim Heidja
- The 'Mast' of Macha: The Celtic Irish and the War Goddess of Ireland by Catherine Mowat
- War Goddess: The Morrigan and Her Germano-Celtic Counterparts by Angelique Gulermovich Epstein
- Demonology, allegory and translation: the Furies and the Morrigan by Michael Clarke
- The 'Terror of the Night' and the Morrígain: Shifting Faces of the Supernatural. - by Jacqueline Borsje
Blogs - There are a lot of people who blog about the Morrigan these days and I will admit my own suggestions will be limited to people I know, and read regularly. I don't go out looking around for new Morrigan bloggers because I just don't have time. You'll also note this only includes written blogs, which isn't an intentional snub to vloggers or youtbers just a reflection that I hardly ever have time to watch videos on my pc so I can't recommend them (since I haven't really watched many).
- Call of the Morrigan: A Community Blog for the Great Queen - a great community based blog that offers a variety of views and opinions by different authors
- Dark Goddess Musings - the blog of author Stephanie Woodfield. Not updated regularly, but has interesting content
- Lora O'Brien - Author and Freelance Writer - what it says on the tin. Not Morrigan specific but there are Morrigan posts to be found and Lora's writing is always good and worth reading. Lora also offers paid courses on the Morrigan and several other related topics that I highly recommend.
- Under the Ancient Oaks - the blog of Druid and author John Beckett. Not Morrigan exclusive either but she is a frequent topic.
Websites - An assortment of Morrigan related websites out there that I am aware of and whose content is generally reliable
- Scath na Feannoige - Morrigan content and content focused on the warrior path. Some free and some paid access, but excellent material.
- Mary Jones Celtic Literature Collective - as advertised, a resource for all things Celtic. your best source for myths on the Morrigan (in the Irish lit section) and also offering an encyclopedia section
- Story Archaeology - A great resource for newer translations of the myths and discussion of the stories in context. if you search the site/podcast you'll find multiple results relating to the Morrigan
- Coru Cathubodua - a site by a group dedicated to the Morrigan, with articles and a resource list
Artwork - Some of my personal favorite sources for Morrigan artwork I like. Your mileage may vary. These are not free - obviously - but I can't list Morrigan resources without including them
- the Ever Living Ones, art of Jane Brideson
- Lindowyn @ Deviantart, art of Ashley Bryner
- Gemma Zoe Jones
- Dryad Design - statuary and jewelry by Paul Borda
Music - We can't forget about music, after all! Its a great resource and a great way to feel connected
- Omnia 'Morrigan' (or this slower version)
2. Darkest Era 'The Morrigan'
3. Cruachan 'The Brown Bull of Cooley'
4. Cruchan 'The Morrigan's Call'
4. Cruchan 'The Morrigan's Call'
5. Heather Dale 'the Morrigan'
Books - I should probably mention here that generally I am not aware of any decent books on the Morrigan, specifically, that are available free online. You can access some older public domain works including Hennessey's 'War Goddess' on Sacred Texts but books that old have issues with some seriously outdated scholarship and need to be read with a big grain of salt. They are worth reading with some critical thinking and discernment but I wouldn't give them a blanket recommendation

We have also made some changes, added some new tasks and modified some original items as the work groups and projects progress over time. See our Updated Action Plan here.

For someone who ironically is on the move all the time really don't like too much change. In Stockholm always get breakfast from same place if have to do work and get some coffee always go to one of two places (String being one, of course and Helgulundens Korta Varor being the other – both in 'sofo'). In London always hang out (again because I can work) at Hoxton Bar & Grill, Smiths for breakfast and the Eagle for Sunday Lunch. And in Los Angeles always stay at same place in Long Beach and drink at Clancy's and have breakfast at Americana. Anyway, you get the idea.
In New York, I have in recent years worked at Workman Publishing who have (had, sorry!) a huge rabbit warren of an office at 708 Broadway. And we always used to go to lunch at the Bowery Bar just down the street on East 4th Street. I know this is one of those places that gets castigated for being too trendy (or at least ten years ago I think) etc etc. Although, I do remember a year or two back (in popbitch) that apparently Bob Dylan was seen hanging around after hours as he was seeing one of the waitresses. And a friend of mine just IM'd me and said he was there last week and Ed Harris was sat next to him drinking Guinness so I guess there may be something to all that it just isn't too evident on a Tuesday lunchtime. But, anyway we mostly just went for lunch and beer after work and I always liked it. Good drinks, impossibly tall waitresses with cowboy hats, great service and good food. It also has great outside bit so you can circumnavigate the New York smoking laws for part of the year anyway. It is also right on the edge of the East Village so is an excellent staging post for a night of nonsense.
Anyway, Workman have now moved almost cross town to Varick Street – so will have to find another lunch time hang out and just try and cope with all the change.

Cherry Blossom Time is the fifth episode of Sailor Moon R. It was preceded by VR Madness and followed by Kindergarten Chaos.
Miss Haruna takes Serena's class on a picnic. Melvin saves a spot for Serena, Raye, Lita, Mina, and Molly (particularly Molly).
Alan and Ann summon a Cardian named Racy to drain energy from everyone. Serena transforms into Sailor Moon and tries to use Moon Tiara Magic, but again her tiara loses its power. Racy breaks Sailor Moon's locket, detransforming her. She then sucks Serena and Luna through a portal in the ground.
They fall until the spirit of Queen Serenity appears and restores Serena's locket, giving it more power, changing its appearance from a crescent moon to a star, and changing the transformation to "Moon Crystal Power". Serena and Luna return, and Serena transforms into Sailor Moon. Racy gets Sailor Moon cornered, but Queen Serenity flies by and gives Sailor Moon the Moon Scepter. Sailor Moon used Moon Scepter Elimination to destroy Racy.
Unfortunately, Racy managed to collect a lot of energy for the Doom Tree.
- First and last appearance of Cardian Racy.
- Sailor Moon now says Moon Crystal Power to transform.
- When she makes her first presence with her new powers, Sailor Moon proclaims that she's "back, bold, maybe even beautiful", a reference to the popular CBS Daytime soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful.
- Sailor Moon has the Moon Scepter, which she uses for the Moon Scepter Elimination attack.

Netanyahu Applauds Israel's Transsexual Diva
May 11, 1998
JERUSALEM, May 11 (Reuters) -- Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, shrugging off opposition from ultra-Orthodox Jews, vowed on Monday that Israel would host the Eurovision annual song contest next year in Jerusalem.
Israeli singer Dana International, who was a man until a sex change operation in 1993, won the contest in Britain on Saturday night, defeating performers from 24 other countries and re-igniting a row with religious Jews who said she defied God.
The next Eurovision is a year away but, like most issues in Israel, it was fair game for politicians always quick to quarrel. The winning country in the celebrated mix of music and kitsch traditionally hosts the event the following year.
Asked if he supported Eurovision taking place in Jerusalem in 1999, Netanyahu said: "Certainly -- and it will be."
The singer's self-proclaimed gift to Israel on its 50th birthday -- she won for a catchy dance tune named Diva -- fanned the flames of a battle raging between an overwhelmingly secular majority and a small but powerful ultra-Orthodox minority.
Radio talk-show hosts had speculated, only half-jokingly, that Netanyahu risked the collapse of his government, which includes ultra-Orthodox political parties, if he congratulated the winner, a leggy brunette previously known as Yaron Cohen.
"I congratulated her and all those who took part in the effort," Netanyahu told reporters when asked his views of the transsexual's triumph. "This appears to me to be deserving of congratulations. It's definitely an honorable achievement."
Interviewed later by Israel's Channel Two Television, Netanyahu acknowledged not having personally called Dana International but the Israeli leader said he hadn't ruled out inviting her to his office to thank her officially.
Asked if he was having a hard time coping with the controversy, Netanyahu said: "Why? I listened and hummed like the rest of the public."
Haim Miller, the ultra-Orthodox deputy mayor of Jerusalem, pledged on Sunday to do everything in his power to bar the contest from the holy city next year.
"What Haim Miller says at most represents only himself, and even that I am not sure about. This municipality is against censorship in matters of culture and art," Israel's Mayor of Jerusalem, Ehud Olmert, shot back.
Israel last hosted the Eurovision in Jerusalem in 1979. Since that time, the numbers of ultra-Orthodox Jews in the holy city and their political clout have soared.
The religious-secular row last flared over the right of a troupe of modern dancers to strip down to their underwear during the country's main 50th anniversary show last month. The troupe boycotted rather than appear in tights, as had been proposed.
Secular Israelis, most of whom serve in the army, assail the tens of thousands of military exemptions granted to ultra-Orthodox Jews who nonetheless receive huge government sums for their schools and religious institutions.
The ultra-Orthodox say they are engaged in religious studies that have preserved Judaism through the ages.
While Israeli politicians took the Eurovision issue seriously, some critics voiced another view. Despite the large television audience the event draws, they see the more than 40-year-old event as an anachronism and a monument to bad taste.

"First impressions are often the truest, as we find (not infrequently) to our cost, when we have been wheedled out of them by plausible professions or studied actions. A man's look is the work of years; it is stamped on his countenance by the events of his whole life, nay, more, by the hand of nature, and it is not to be got rid of easily."

It feels good to laugh. After bingeing on a heavy meal of year-end movie releases — those films competing for a gold trophy come March — it's easy to forget how pleasant a moderately inane broad comedy can be.
The Oscar antidote goes by the name of "Ride Along," a buddy-cop comedy that isn't at all original but does have one big thing going for it. Or, more accurately, a little thing: comedian Kevin Hart. He plays Ben, a motor-mouthed gamer and high school security guard who wants to marry his girlfriend, Angela (Tika Sumpter), but needs to get approval from her prickly brother, James (Ice Cube). The two men got off on the wrong foot, but James, a police officer, tells Ben there's one way he can prove himself: James proposes that Ben tag along during a day on the job. Given that Ben is an aspiring cop, he jumps at the chance.
Predictably, the day doesn't unfold as heroically as Ben hopes. He can't intimidate a small child, much less a loitering biker gang, and when he tries to handcuff an irate, nearly naked man covered in honey, well, you can just imagine. Of course the big case James has been working, which involves Serbians and an elusive criminal mastermind named Omar, comes to a head on the one day James is babysitting his potential brother-in-law.
The outcome is obvious, but Hart distracts from the familiar territory with consistent laughs. As a stand-up comedian, he's known for his spot-on delivery, but the diminutive jokester also proves himself a master of physical comedy, whether he's gliding awkwardly across the roof of a car, imitating Rihanna's dance moves or reacting to a false-alarm home invasion by falling into a bookcase and knocking himself out cold.
Hart is clearly working overtime; there's nothing effortless about his histrionic delivery, but it works. Ice Cube does less heavy lifting as the straight man (though who knows what kind of existential crisis he may be grappling with given the unprintable things he used to rap about police back in the day), but he conveys the checklist of important traits for the seasoned curmudgeon: exasperation, arrogance and, buried deep, a soft spot.
Speaking of hitting the high points, the action in "Ride Along" looks slick with a car chase that opens the movie and an impressive show of explosives.
None of it will be enough to make "Ride Along" memorable. You might think of the movie as a long car trip you've taken many times before. The same old roadside attractions may not be exciting, but when you've got great company, who cares?

The National Center for Family-Integrated Churches
The Church's Duty to Equip the Saints
How is a church to equip the saints for evangelism?
Don Hart explains in this video that the modern church needs to realize and understand that as pastors preach and exposit the Scripture, they are preparing the members of the church to go out and evangelize throughout the week.
Many modern churches have become misguided in their application of evangelism. They have become seeker-oriented churches. However, worship is not about man, but about God. It is about doing what is pleasing to the Lord. It comports with the regulative principle.
In the meeting of the church, we worship a perfect God. We prepare saints to go out and do the work of God. We don't tailor the meetings of the church to show greater concern for unbelievers instead of teaching and strengthening believers who are to evangelize to the lost. We are to worship the One who came to seek and save the lost.
Acts 4:11-12 (NKJV) – "This is the 'stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.' Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
Please consider coming to our national conference: Repentance - The Reformation Continues - October 26-28 in Asheville NC.

Main Reason Why Shahid & Kareena Maintained A Distance In 'Udta Punjab' Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor had a story in the past. No one can forget when they seemed to be together. They both were considered as the cutest couple of Bollywood. They both worked and ready to appear very soon in the movie "Udta Punjab".
Well, Shahid was recently asked about his movie "Udta Punjab and his co-actress Kareena Kapoor. Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan are the former lovers.
Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Khan's Movie Udta Punjab
In the shooting time, sometimes they felt awkward to come close to each other. Shahid revealed that they felt awkward each other's company when they were at their trailer launch. Shahid was asked about a media person that why they maintained a distance in the trailer launch and the event.
Shahid replied that if he and Kareena stand together, they photographer and the media started talking about it. People started gossips whenever they both together in an event. He gave an appropriate reason on the question of maintaining distance with Kareena Kapoor Khan.
Well, Udta Punjab is a much awaited of this year and seems to be in the controversy from some time because of the 40 cuts by the censor board. Censor Board cuts 40 scenes from this movie. This news creates controversy, and the filmmakers looked very tense by these cuts. I mean How could you expect a film with 40 cuts?
But the filmmakers will release this movie on its decided releasing dates. So get ready to watch the film in your nearby theaters. Alia Bhatt, Diljit Dosanjh, Shahid Kapoor and the most beautiful Kareena Kapoor Khan will appear in this film.
This movie will be expected to be a big hit in the theaters, and it is subjected to drug problems in youngsters. So be ready to watch the film on 17 June.

Thomas Bernhard
|Thomas Bernhard
Thomas Bernhard in 1987.
9 February 1931
Heerlen, Netherlands
12 February 1989 58) (aged
Gmunden, Upper Austria, Austria
|Novelist and playwright
|Literary movement
|Notable works
The Loser
Thomas Bernhard (German: [ˈtoːmas ˈbɛʁnhaʁt]; born Nicolaas Thomas Bernhard; February 9, 1931 – February 12, 1989) was an Austrian novelist, playwright and poet. Bernhard, whose body of work has been called "the most significant literary achievement since World War II,"[1] is widely considered to be one of the most important German-speaking authors of the postwar era.
Thomas Bernhard was born in 1931 in Heerlen, Netherlands, where, at the time, his mother Herta Bernhard worked as a maid. Since the autumn of 1931, he lived with his grandparents in Vienna until his mother, who had married since, moved him, in 1937, to Traunstein, Bavaria. Bernhard's natural father Alois Zuckerstätter died in Berlin from gas poisoning in an assumed suicide; Thomas had never met him.
Bernhard's grandfather, the author Johannes Freumbichler, pushed for an artistic education for the boy, including musical instruction. Bernhard went to elementary school in Seekirchen and later attended various schools in Salzburg including the Johanneum which he left in 1947 to start an apprenticeship with a grocer.
Bernhard's Lebensmensch (a predominantly Austrian term, which was coined by Bernhard himself[2] and which refers to the most important person in one's life) was Hedwig Stavianicek (1894–1984), a woman more than thirty-seven years his senior, whom he cared for alone in her dying days and whom he had met in 1950, the year of his mother's death and one year after the death of his beloved grandfather. Stavianicek was the major support in Bernhard's life and greatly furthered his literary career. The extent or nature of his relationships with women is obscure. Thomas Bernhard's public persona was asexual.[3]
Suffering throughout his youth from an intractable lung disease (tuberculosis), Bernhard spent the years 1949 to 1951 at the sanatorium Grafenhof, in Sankt Veit im Pongau. He trained as an actor at the Mozarteum in Salzburg (1955–1957) and was always profoundly interested in music. His lung condition, however, made a career as a singer impossible. After that he began to work briefly as a journalist, mainly as a crime reporter, and then became a full-time writer.
Bernhard died in 1989 in Gmunden, Upper Austria. His attractive house in Ohlsdorf-Obernathal 2 where he had moved in 1965 is now a museum and centre for the study and performance of Bernhard's work. In his will, which aroused great controversy on publication, Bernhard prohibited any new stagings of his plays and publication of his unpublished work in Austria; however, this was annulled by his heir in 1999. His death was announced only after his funeral.
Often criticized in Austria as a Nestbeschmutzer (one who dirties his own nest) for his critical views, Bernhard was highly acclaimed abroad. Nevertheless, while criticised for political reasons by some, he was, during his lifetime, also highly acclaimed in Austria, winning a number of major awards, and was seen by many as the pre-eminent writer of the time.
His work is most influenced by the feeling of being abandoned (in his childhood and youth) and by his incurable illness, which caused him to see death as the ultimate essence of existence. His work typically features loners' monologues explaining, to a rather silent listener, his views on the state of the world, often with reference to a concrete situation. This is true for his plays as well as for his prose, where the monologues are then reported second hand by the listener.
His main protagonists, often scholars or, as he calls them, Geistesmenschen (spirit-people), denounce everything that matters to the Austrian in contumacy-filled tirades against a "stupid populace". He also attacks the state (often called "Catholic-National-Socialist"), generally respected institutions such as Vienna's Burgtheater, and much-loved artists. His work also continually deals with the isolation and self-destruction of people striving for an unreachable perfection, since this same perfection would mean stagnancy and therefore death. Anti-Catholic rhetoric is not uncommon.
"Es ist alles lächerlich, wenn man an den Tod denkt" (Everything is ridiculous, when one thinks of Death) was his comment when he received a minor Austrian national award in 1968, which resulted in one of the many public scandals he caused over the years and which became part of his fame. His novel Holzfällen (1984), for instance, could not be published for years due to a defamation claim by a former friend. Many of his plays—above all Heldenplatz (1988)—were met with criticism from many Austrians, who claimed they sullied Austria's reputation. One of the more controversial lines called Austria "a brutal and stupid nation ... a mindless, cultureless sewer which spreads its penetrating stench all over Europe." Heldenplatz, as well as the other plays Bernhard wrote in these years, were staged at Vienna's famous Burgtheater by the controversial director Claus Peymann.
Even in death Bernhard caused disturbance by his, as he supposedly called it, posthumous literary emigration, by disallowing all publication and stagings of his work within Austria's borders. The International Thomas Bernhard Foundation, established by his executor and half-brother Dr. Peter Fabjan, has subsequently made exceptions, although the German firm of Suhrkamp remains his principal publisher.
The correspondence between Bernhard and his publisher Siegfried Unseld from 1961 to 1989 – about 500 letters – was published in December 2009 at Suhrkamp Verlag, Germany.[4]

Langley Arts Council has been awarded a B.C. Arts Council grant of $21,446, MLA Mary Polak announced.
"The Langley Arts Council enriches the lives of so many,†said Polak. "The staff and volunteers deserve tremendous credit for nurturing local talent and creativity for people of all ages.â€
"Langley is a vibrant and creative community, and the assistance we receive from the BC Arts Council helps us showcase the value of arts and culture,†said Harmony Thiessen, executive director Langley Arts Council. "People value creative expression very close to their heart.â€
The local funding comes from a $24-million pool that the B.C. Arts Council received from the provincial government to support artists, arts activities, and culture in the 2013-14 fiscal year.
As B.C.'s lead agency for arts funding and development, the B.C. Arts Council enlists the expertise of the province's artists to evaluate grant applications through a peer review process independent of government.
Established in 1995, the B.C. Arts Council consults with the arts and culture community to develop policies, programs and strategic priorities for the sector. Last year, the Council approved more than 1,000 grants in more than 200 communities in every region of the province.
The provincial government is providing $24 million to the B.C. Arts Council this year, the highest funding level in the council's history.
Overall, it is investing $60 million towards B.C.'s artists, arts organizations and cultural institutions during the 2014-15 fiscal year.

Namco Bandai spinning Wii, 360 Tales
Publisher's anime-inspired RPG series celebrates 10th NA anniversary with Tales of Vesperia on Microsoft's console and Dawn of the New World for Nintendo's system.
Namco Bandai's Tales series of anime-inspired role-playing games has been going strong since the early 1990s. Now, the enduring franchise is set to debut on two of the 21st century's newest consoles. Today, Namco announced it will release Tales of Vesperia exclusively on the Xbox 360 and Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World on the Nintendo Wii in North America by year's end.
Developed by Namco's Tales Studio, Tales of Vesperia marks the first outing in the series to make its way to Microsoft's platform. Characterized as a "standard-setting RPG," Vesperia follows the travails of errant knight Yuri, who seeks to uncover the mystery surrounding a mystical and mystifying ancient technology that powers his civilization.
Namco Bandai promises Vesperia will deliver a new interpretation on the antiquated series, with a new graphics engine that features high-definition character models and environs that recall traditional cel-shaded anime. Vesperia will also include an update to the game's distinctive real-time combat system, with larger battlefields, new special attacks, and unique weapons all slated to appear.
Also in development at the Namco Tales Studio, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World is a continuation of the well-received GameCube game that takes place two years later. Though it primarily follows two new protagonists--Emil Castagnier and Marta Lualdi--it will also feature cameos from the GC game's cast, including Lloyd, Colette, and Ratatosk.
Dawn of the New World will include a number of updates for its Wii appearance, including a new monster recruitment tool that will allow players to collect, train, and evolve more than 200 enemies. The series' battle system will also be revisited in the Wii game, with Namco Bandai promising free-roaming on battlefields as well as new special attacks and weapons.

NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH: We are taking a smarter approach to the way we prevent, detect and tackle crime and local problems in your area. Since 2015 we have embarked on a transformational change programme. We have looked at every element of our local policing service, determining how we can manage more demand with fewer people and meet the new and emerging threats facing our communities. Our new local policing model holds on to areas of policing which are much valued and has transformed others to address the changing nature of crime and evolution of new crime types and threats for example child exploitation and terrorism. We have now launched our new Local Policing Model which sees teams working closely together to provide a flexible and resilient service within your community: Prevention Teams are accessible. Aim to prevent crime and anti-social behaviour by working with partners and targeting their patrols in areas where they can make a difference. Include PCSOs with enhanced skills, police officers and staff, including specialists working with young people in schools and colleges. Identify the best ways to solve problems, tackle repeat issues and reduce crime. Cover every neighbourhood in Sussex and can be contacted directly. Response Teams are there when needed in an emergency, available 24/7. Work proactively in vulnerable areas. Also attend non-emergency calls where a policing presence is needed. Investigations teams investigate professionally and effectively. Proactively pursue and manage offenders, using the latest technology and digital evidence techniques to catch criminals.
Support communities and victims, with each crime type investigated and each case considered individually according to the threat and harm caused. Through the Investigation and Resolution Centre resolve less serious incidents, which do not require a face to face visit, over the phone.
Local policing is at the heart of everything we do and is the foundation for keeping you, your families and the wider community safe. You can read Transformation 2025 our vision for policing to find out more.
News and appeals. We've had a number of tools stolen from work vans in Wealden over the past few weeks and are again encouraging owners to remove their tools overnight, where possible. Always make sure the vehicle is locked and secured, even when working close by. The majority of this type of crime is opportunistic, and occurs because tools have been left on view or the vehicle left insecure. It only takes 10 seconds for your valuable items to be stolen. Consider parking works vehicles with the rear doors positioned tightly up against a building, wall or fence, and in a well lit area. If parking your vehicle at home, it's worth considering installing security lighting or even a CCTV system. For further advice on vehicle crimes, or other crime prevention, visit the 'Advice' section on the Sussex Police website.

ACTION FRAUD: Action Fraud (Action Fraud, Administrator, National). The National Fraud Intelligence Bureau (NFIB) has identified a number of reports where job seekers are being targeted by fraudsters trying to obtain personal and banking details from them, or requesting money to secure accommodation. Individuals registering with job seeking websites or searching for jobs on The Student Room website are being contacted by bogus recruitment companies/businesses asking them to complete application and interview forms which request personal details and banking details, as well as copies of identity documents. In some instances the applicant is invited along for interview, either in person or over the phone, to make the process look as legitimate as possible. This is impacting on students and graduates looking for work both in the UK and overseas. Some job seekers, as well as divulging personal details, have paid money to the fraudsters in order to secure a bogus rental property alongside the job offer. How to protect yourself: Check emails and documents from the recruiter for poor spelling and grammar, this is often a sign that fraudsters are at work. If visa fees are mentioned, ask the embassy representing the country where you believe you will be working how to obtain a visa and how much it costs. Check that the answers the potential employer or recruiter gave you are the same, if they're not, it may be a sign of fraud. Carry out thorough research to confirm that the organisation offering you the job actually exists. If it does exist, contact the organisation directly using contact details obtained through your own research or their website to confirm the job offer is genuine. What to do if you're a victim: If you think your bank details have been compromised or if you believe you have been defrauded contact your bank immediately. Stop all communication with the 'agency' but make a note of their details and report it to Action Fraud. Warn the operators of the job website you used that their site is being used by fraudsters. If you have been affected by this, or any other type of fraud, report it to Action Fraud by visiting www.actionfraud.police.uk or by calling 0300 123 2040.
WEALDEN ALERTS: Overweight Bin Payments Be aware. Con men claiming overweight bin payments. We have had reports of con men operating in neighbouring local authorities of con men claiming to be employees of Kier, our waste and recycling contractor, and requesting Christmas tips and payments to empty overweight brown bins. Hoodie. The men have been operating in the Bexhill and Sidley area, which are also covered by the East Sussex Joint Waste Partnership, and are wearing high visibility tabards over ordinary clothing. Please email email@example.com if you have been approached. In cases were brown garden waste bins are overweight, we will ticket the bin. We do not approach residents requesting them for any additional money. The scam came to light when the Partnership's own contractors visited the properties later in the day.
CROSS IN HAND: Isenhurst. Once again on November 11 there was a very bad three vehicle pile up. As I have previously reported there now seems to be a weekly accident at this very busy junction. I suppose until somebody is very badly injured or God forbid, killed, will anything be done.
FIREWORKS: It does seem a number of dogs were frightened by the very large firework displays in the area. Three dogs were reported missing or seen loose in the Cross in Hand area. Happily they were all reunited with their respective owners. Please can organisers of displays give the neighbourhood plenty of warning. I am quite prepared to mention warnings of intended displays.
PINE GARAGE: Looking at social media, this garage has a lot of very happy customers. I drive past the garage on a daily basis the workshop is always busy and plenty of vehicles awaiting repairs and servicing. Contact 01435 863278.

BREAK INN: Between November 11 and 13 a number of tools were stolen from a property in East Street. If you are offered any tools please contact the police.
HORAM: Wealden Crematorium Project. A number of signs have been posted on the site asking the public not to disturb the white pitfall traps placed at the foot of the low plastic fencing. The pitfall traps, which are monitored regularly, are there to collect rare Great Crested Newts which can then be relocated to a safe place away from the working area. Also in the next week or so, some further ground investigation work will be undertaken and consequently there may be some additional traffic accessing the site. Finally, as previously reported, we have been experiencing problems with vandalism and theft from the site and so if you or your neighbours should notice anyone deliberately damaging or interfering with anything then please let Wealden know.
BLACKBOYS: Framfield Recreation Ground. Following the receipt of the details of a tree survey, commissioned in line with the insurer's regulations, every three years, work has been identified as being required for health and safety reasons as most of the trees in question have severe Ash Die-Back. Permission has been granted by Wealden District Council and the work will take place over two days, November 16 and 17. A programme of re-planting will be considered by the Trustees under the guidance of English Woodlands.

What an experience this turned out to be! In an effort to save money we opted to order our new camera equipment from on-line retailers rather than from an outlet. To be fair, ordering the equipment did in fact save us over $1000.00, money that can and will be used for much better, and less selfish things than buying photography equipment. Not only did it save us a great deal of money, we were able to acquire far more equipment than we otherwise would have been able to had we gone through our typical buying avenues. Continue reading

|Mike Pence Dominionist: The Next President of the United States? by Steve Jonas
February 26, 2017
Is Donald Trump already headed for self-destruction? Or headed for an even more expensive Trump-branding business? Or indeed headed for Trump-TV with an even bigger name recognition quotient? Or impeachment by a Republican Party that quickly gets fed up with his total incompetence as Precedent or even more importantly with certain policies of his, especially in foreign affairs, and impeaches him? Or perhaps it's one or more of the at least five possible criminal investigations that are going on or might be going on that could catch up with him.
The five that I know of are: a possible RICO investigation connected with Trump University (and his settlement of the T.U. civil suits would not dis-connect him from such an investigation); Trump appears to have violated the U.S. embargo against Cuba (which would be highly ironic since he in part won Florida because of the "Cuban vote"); Trump may have violated the U.S. sanctions against Iran; and, if Russia really did interfere with the election and Trump's communications with them during the elections in any way, even indirectly, dealt with interference, that would likely come under the definition of treason.
Now, with Sessions in charge at would become The "Justice" Department, none of these would likely proceed, at the Federal level. But one more states attorneys general might want to take one or more of them up, as New York Attorney General Schneiderman did with Trump University. And of course, this list says nothing about the non-criminal conflicts-of-interest which could very well arise in the Trump Presidency, and could lead to him being forced out of it, by route or another. So far, The Washington Post has counted 111 of them.
Which brings us to Vice-President Mike Pence, who could easily become President Mike Pence by any one or more of the routes described above. Despite the fact that Pence made nice about the incident at "Hamilton" while his putative boss went on one of his classic Twitter rampages about the cast's plea that an inclusive policy should emanate from the White House, in terms of policy and his underlying philosophy of government and positon on Constitutional government, Pence would be even worse than Trump. I have detailed much of this material in an earlier column partially on Pence, but it is certainly worth looking at again, at least in my view. In summary, Pence, nice smile and all, is a very dangerous political figure, on many fronts, but most especially on his underlying ideology that his religious doctrines — which begin with placing "God" above the Constitution (that's called "Dominionism") — should dominate government policy on a wide variety of issues.
Pence had thought about running for the current Repub. nomination in 2015; after that didn't pan out for him he was actually an early Cruz supporter, who then switched to Trump when the former dropped out. As far as I can tell, he has not yet been openly labelled as a Dominionist, but his policies clearly place him in that camp. Not particularly in order of importance:
But he made it very clear that he wants Roe v. Wade reversed, which would permit states like his to criminalize abortion, on religious grounds. That is, he would use the power of the State to enforce the religious views of one segment of the population (and it doesn't matter whether they constitute a majority or not) on everyone else. That, folks, is called theocracy, operating under a theory of government called Dominionism or Reconstructionism (the U.S. is to be "reconstructed" under religious law).
Further, according to Jeremy Scahill, Pence has said that:
We'll see Roe v. Wade consigned to the ash heap of history where it belongs,' . . . . As governor of Indiana, Pence signed a law requiring fetal tissue from abortions to be buried or cremated. . . He has long sought to have 14th Amendment protections applied to fetuses, arguing that they should be declared persons. In Congress, Pence voted to criminally punish doctors who performed late-term abortions, except in cases where the woman's life was in danger. . . . Pence opposed efforts to widen hate crimes laws to include attacks on LGBT people.
Mr. Scahill documents a whole series of Pence's far-right positions on everything from making the Patriot Act permanent to comparing "radical Islam" to the "evil empire of the Soviet Union," but in my view, it is his above positions, ones that are all based on a particular religious doctrine, and placing them above any consideration of Constitutional law, that make this man particularly dangerous. Despite his nice smile. Worse even than Trump? To the extent that theocracy is worse even than conventional Repub./Far Right government — plus Trump's abominable personality/mental status/racism-Islamophobia-mysogny — yes.

Structural Reliability and Proof Testing for Highway Bridgesby Gongkang Fu, New York State Dept of, Transportation, Albany, United States,
Jianguo Tang, New York State Dept of, Transportation, Albany, United States,
Document Type: Proceeding Paper
Part of: Probabilistic Mechanics and Structural and Geotechnical Reliability
This paper proposes a set of reliability-based proof load factors for highway bridge evaluation, to determine target proof load and load rating. The target safety index used is consistent with current practice. The proposed factors assure a relatively uniform level of bridge structural safety. Possible changes in input data and probability distribution assumptions in the reliability models will not affect the results obtained here. These factors may be included in specifications for highway bridge evaluation by proof testing.

I was introduced to the world of Archie, Betty, Veronica and the rest of their gang at the age of 10 whilst on a holiday in California. I still have many of my old copies of the famous Double Digest comics dating back from the mid 90s in my old bedroom. Being a big sucker for the limited edition packaging Mac Collections I did a little freak out when I first heard about the launch of the Archie's Girls collection!
The collection is split into two ranges, the pretty neutral pinks for blonde Betty and deeper sexier shades for brunette vixen Veronica.
I'd consider myself to be suited more towards Veronica's look but I found myself gravitating more towards the "Betty Bright" swatches which appeared to be a pastel peachy shade.
I have since found it to be more of a pink than a pastel coral. Still nice and wearable but not as unique as it appeared in photos online. Bummer. I'm still 100% certain that this is the greatest lipstick packaging I have ever owned.
The collection is mostly sold out online (I signed up to be alerted when it was launched but I was never sent an email! This happened a couple of years ago with Wonder Woman) and in Selfidges but it was released in freestanding stores yesterday, on 7/03/13)
If I wasn't totally screwed in the money department, I'd be all over the Pearl Matte face powder and mini brush kit too. I KNOW the brushes in these kits aren't up to the regular standard but I think they are the cutest little things and are fantastic for holidays (because like, I go on so many, right?) but who can resist the little red hearts on the handles?
Ugh. I LOVE IT ALL.
