Its important to note that Lavera self tanners do not protect against the damaging effects of the sun. That's the job of Lavera's sunscreens. Lavera uses 100% natural mineral pigments to deliver effective UV-A, B and C protection in the SUN product line. Mineral pigments create a physical shield that sits on the surface of the skin to block UV rays. Unlike synthetic sunscreen ingredients, mineral pigments do not accumulate in the body and affect the healthy functioning of internal organs or the normal balance of reproductive hormones. The current sunscreen line has been reformulated to meet the strict European Union sunscreen regulations, requiring UVA protection be at 1/3rd of the stated SPF, ensuring you have the best protection possible.
Lavera Self Tanners — A Healthy and Safe Approach to Tanning
This unaltered photo shows a smooth, natural tan develop on the right arm compared to the untreated left arm. Lavera self tanners give you a healthy sunkissed tan within only 3 hours after initial application. There are two organic self tanning lotions from Lavera - one for the face, another for the body, that's completely chemical and toxin free!
Lavera's "Tan and Protect Kit" — Healthy Looking Tan & Sun Protection
Now you can have the best of both worlds! Enjoy being in the sun without exposure to the damaging effects of the sun AND have a great looking tan without exposure to harmful chemicals!
First apply a tanner for that sunkissed glow of being in the sun then apply sunscreen to protect against the damages of the sun. You will look and feel great.

Rich And Black
And regardless to how much power you have
When God sends prophets and messengers
They don't care nothing about your power
Because they come from Thee power
Rare nigga, I'm a wonder, your best success is my worst blunder
Feds tapped the number
Jury Jacqueline Onassis could appreciate
Weed to alleviate the pain, Eddie Kane, Richard Pryor, pinky ring
Watch ya conduct nigga, full pardons for my niggas that's livin'
You guessed it, models, y'all keep 'em if they anorexic
Love 'em but can't trust 'em, hate 'em but won't bust 'em
Cake in the savings, spinning wisdom it's like a custom
Tats of Hieroglyphics, lipstick on the collar
I got more to lose than you do but I'm a rider
When did the rules change? Y'all livin' trendy on pennies
Meetin' deadlines with ease, no gain
You fire, I'm butane, gave the Timbs ostrich belts
These are the times that I surprise myself
My niggas lookin' like Black Crowes at packed shows
The don voice stay pristine like I'm still 17
I'm rick, black, African, rockin' a golden Mack
Trailing leather Gucci leggings on my back
Willied by some hoodlum in the trench
Rinse these niggaz, 86 gazelles, dicing their defense
Mike Tyson disciple, trifle with my pen, it's a rifle
16 ways to shoot you through your Chrysler duke
Exhalin' with niggaz the jails argue
Bring the best niggas to the table, I'll sick 4 of my whales on you
Custom wooded speakers rock Elise's
Run from polices, dump on creatures, holidays with preachers
Stainless Steel watches ostrich turtlenecks, here's the deal
If we can't come in, they can't have the field
Bones ya Sisco, murder instrumentals
Kanye porsche rap, how many horses live official?
I run with generals that flash Uzis in interviews
My shit is deep, we fly swimming dude
2 gotta be all murder just like the first
Timbs yellow like the hair on a Malibu surfer
Yellow like my Harry Winston glistenin' arm B
Yellow like New York City piss stained concrete
That's right yo, who voted toastin' in the wind?
Las Vegas odors, what you know
Leave it right here, we go to the Lotus
Put a package on your head, be promoted
Keys in effect, paying these dumb fuckin' D's off a donuts
I hate to see you acting like a slave
To get an advance here, an advance there
Because somebody else controls your destiny
I'm rich, black, umbrella calico captain
Wes Craven with a blade and a black

If the fact that it might have been Hemingway's at one point makes it more interesting to you and you've got nothing to say that it wasn't his then why not just say that it was his. If you appreciation of it derives from the fact that it is a cool antiquey lighter then why not just accept it as a cool antiquely thing and not worry about who may have owned it in the past.
The real value of Hemingway is his writing and you can get that for free in the library.
Joy says:
michael's point is valid, but the fact that Hemingway owned such a beautiful antique lighter just makes something already great, awesome.
Reggie Darling says:
Lighters meant for cocktail tables, A&F back in the day when it was the real thing, the 1950s, and all the rest. Better then. I wish I still smoked. Well, I wish I still smoked when it was fun and what we all did and were still immrotal and could stay up all night and make it through the next day without showing (or feeling) the effects. That was then. This is now...
Karena says:
Hollister I would like to think that yes, it was Hemingway's! What is your favorite of his books. A Moveable Feast is mine.

michael says:
Mine is "The Sun Also Rises" and with respect to whether the lighter was Hemingway's or not,"Isn't it pretty to think so?"
Heather Robinson says:
Find a good psychic and take it to him/her! Oooh...worth a shot, non?

It isn't in the picture, and that's a very dirty ashtray...
Angelica Tynan says:
What do I think ... ?
Replace the flint, fill it, & then film it in action, dahlink.
A Hovey video instalment is in order.
Claraalcott says:
Maybe The History Detectives on PBS could help?
They seem to specialize in tracking down the backstories to mysterious curios.
They researched the origins of a single World War I Siberian bullet.
In this case...

Who was/is The Four Tops ? - CDs, Vinyl LPs, DVD and more
The Four Tops
Ain't That Love
The leonine roar of Levi Stubbs and the advanced, jazz-steeped harmonies of the rest of The Four Tops were seldom absent from the high end of the charts once they signed with Motown and teamed with production geniuses Holland-Dozier-Holland. But the road to stardom was long and arduous for the quartet.
Products of Detroit's North End, Stubbs (born June 6, 1936), first tenor Abdul 'Duke' Fakir (born December 26, 1935), second tenor Lawrence Payton (born March 2, 1938; he was their harmony arranger), and baritone Renaldo 'Obie' Benson (born June 14, 1936) came together at a 1954 party. "We just got together and sang a tune or two," says Duke. "It sounded pretty good the way we did it. So we got this idea, we said, 'Look, why don't we tomorrow call a rehearsal and see if we can sing a couple of other tunes?' We rehearsed, and we found out we had a kind of a unique sound." They initially called themselves The Four Aims.
Pal Roquel 'Billy' Davis, who cut his songwriting chops in his group The Five Jets, sent Chess Records a demo tape of the group. A bus ticket to Chicago soon came in the mail. Davis landed his homies a contract and ended up writing hits for The Moonglows (See Saw) and Flamingos (A Kiss From Your Lips). Before the quartet cut for Chess, a new moniker was a must. "We had to change that name because of the Ames Brothers," says Fakir. "Since our theme was aiming for the top - that's why we picked the name the Aims - we just switched it around and used the Tops." Chess' commitment to the Tops lasted long enough to issue one swinging 1956 single, Could It Be You b/w Kiss Me Baby. The Tops made their bones on the road, opening for jazz crooner Billy Eckstine in 1959 at the Thunderbird in Las Vegas.
The group stopped off at Columbia Records in 1960 to lay down the rocking Stubbs original Ain't That Love, produced by the legendary John Hammond (Lonely Summer graced the flip). Obie wasn't there; Uncle Sam's Army had whisked him away, so his temporary replacement was Thearon 'T-Man' Hill, formerly of The Royal Jokers (Benson was back well before the Tops found stardom). Other than a '62 revival of Pennies From Heaven for Riverside, that was it until the Tops heard from Berry Gordy in 1963. "He said anytime we wanted to come to the company, he'd love to have us," says Duke. "After we tried all these different companies and nothing happened, we took him up on his word and went back to Detroit." When The Tops got hot on Motown in the summer of 1965, Columbia reissued Ain't That Love and scored a #93 pop seller.
With such unforgettable mid-'60s Motown smashes as Baby I Need Your Loving and I Can't Help Myself, Holland-Dozier-Holland brought out the inherent power in Levi's delivery. "He could always wow the audience," says Duke. "He's always had that lead voice and that lead atmosphere." Fakir is the only Top still with us. Payton's June 20, 1997 passing from liver cancer broke the quartet up after 43 amazing years. Benson was next to go on July 1, 2005 of lung cancer, and Stubbs died October 17, 2008 (a stroke had previously left him unable to tour).

Third Day to play Coors Field after Rockies' game
Third Day, the Atlanta-based multi-platinum Christian rock band, will be in Denver for a concert after the Rockies' game on Sunday, Aug. 19 at Coors Field.
Third Day is currently working with veteran rock producer Brendan O'Brien at the band's studio — The Quarry. O'Brien has worked with Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots and Denver's The Fray.
"Our time with Brendan has been nothing less than an amazing experience," said Mac Powell, Third Day's lead singer. "Brendan has definitely stretched me as a songwriter and vocalist more than any other producer ever has."
Faith Day will be a treat for Third Day fans as the band is on limited tour schedule this summer with the album in the works and fans can expect to hear some new songs at Coors Field.
The major-league baseball team has been hosting Faith Day for seven years and each year the event grows. Last year, Rockies' fans were treated to a concert by Casting Crowns.

James Ipekjian has built a career on reproducing furniture designed by Charles and Henry Greene.
By Robert W. Lang
Pages: 80-84
From the December 2006 issue #159

James Ipekjian didn't set out to become an expert on reproducing the early 20th-century furniture designed by architects Charles and Henry Greene, and he can't really explain how he got to be where he is today.
"If there were a contest for the luckiest woodworker on the planet" he says, "I don't know if I'd win – but I think I'd be one of the finalists."
Today, he works alone in a comfortably cluttered but remarkably well-equipped shop located near the ultimate bungalows built by the Greenes in Pasadena, Calif. In the 1970s, Ipekjian was working as a model maker in the aerospace industry, and building projects from Popular Mechanics out of plywood in his garage. Bitten by the woodworking bug, he wondered if he could possibly make a living working with wood. A commission for an 18th-century highboy, as well as dissatisfaction with his job, led him to give it a try.

Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia
Familial combined hyperlipidemia is a disorder of high cholesterol and high blood triglycerides that is inherited, which means it is passed down through families.
Alternative Names
Multiple lipoprotein-type hyperlipidemia
Familial combined hyperlipidemia is the most common genetic disorder of increased blood fats that causes early heart attacks. However, researchers have not yet identified the specific genes responsible.
Diabetes, alcoholism, and hypothyroidism make the condition worse. Risk factors include a family history of high cholesterol and early coronary artery disease.
Chest pain (angina) may occur. However, there may not be any physical symptoms.
Persons with this condition develop high cholesterol or triglyceride levels during the teenage years. The levels remain high throughout life. They have an increased risk of early coronary artery diseaseand heart attacks. Those with familial combined hyperlipidemia have a higher rate of obesity and glucose intolerance.
Blood tests will be done to check your levels of cholesterol and triglycerides. Specific tests include:
- LDL test (increased)
- HDL test (decreased)
- Triglycerides test (increased)
- Apolipoprotein B100 test (increased)
- Genetic testing is available for one type of familial combined hyperlipidemia.
The goal of treatment is to reduce the risk of atherosclerotic heart disease.
The first step is to change what you eat. Most of the time, this is tried for several months before your doctor recommends medicines, too. Diet changes include lowering the amount of fat in your diet so it is less than 30% of your total calories.
Here are some ways to eat less saturated fat:
Eat less beef, chicken, pork, and lamb
Substitute low-fat dairy products for full-fat ones
Eliminate palm oil
You can reduce your the amount of cholesterol you eat by eliminating egg yolks and organ meats.
Counseling is often recommended to help people make changes to their eating habits. Weight loss and regular exercise may also help lower your cholesterol levels.
If lifestyle changes do not change your cholesterol levels, or you are at very high risk of developing atherosclerotic heart disease, your doctor may recommend medication. There are several types of drugs available to help lower blood cholesterol levels, and they work in different ways. Some are better at lowering LDL cholesterol, some are good at lowering triglycerides, while others help raise HDL cholesterol.
The most commonly used and effective drugs for treating high LDL cholesterol are called statins. The include lovastatin (Mevacor), pravastatin (Pravachol), simvastatin (Zocor), fluvastatin (Lescol), atorvastatin (Lipitor), rosuvastatin (Crestor), and pitivastatin (Livalo).
Other cholesterol-lowering medicines include:
- Bile acid-sequestering resins
- Ezetimibe
- Fibrates (such as gemfibrozil and fenofibrate)
- Nicotinic acid
- Expectations (prognosis)
- How well you do depends on how early the condition is diagnosed, when treatment is received, and whether you follow your treatment instructions. Without treatment, heart attack or stroke may cause early death.
Even with medicine, some people may continue to have high lipid levels that increase their risk of heart attack.
- Early atherosclerotic heart disease
- Heart attack
- Stroke
Calling your health care provider
Seek immediate medical care if you have chest pain or other warning signs of a heart attack.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if you have a personal or family history of high cholesterol levels.
A low-cholesterol, low-saturated fat diet in high-risk individuals may help to control LDL levels.
If someone in your family has this condition, you may want to consider genetic screening for yourself or your children. Sometimes younger children may have mild hyperlipidemia.
It is important to control other risk factors for early heart attacks, such as smoking, if you have this disease.
Drug information for this condition is made available by Factor One Source FAST Pharmacy upon request by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com directly, or by submitting an inquiry through our Contact Page.

Learning Guide: Application security testing techniques
Testing applications for security purposes is such a basic, important safety measure that most security professionals wouldn't think twice about it. Explore your options for pen testing, vulnerability analysis, fuzzing and more in this application security testing learning guide.
Testing applications for security purposes is such a basic, important safety measure that most security professionals wouldn't think twice about it. Yet just a few years ago, the methods for application security testing were limited in both scope and number.
All that has changed. Now the tools and techniques for testing are more sophisticated. We can expect advancements in methodology, novel approaches to testing and many new products to come. This learning guide breaks testing down into several categories, although there is inevitably some overlap. Use these papers, expert opinions, articles, news and tips to refine your application security testing strategy. If you know of an article, tip, tool or method that should be included, send me an e-mail with the information and I'll be happy to add it. – Jennette Mullaney, assistant editor.

16 homes confirmed lost in Dereel fire
Victoria's Country Fire Authority (CFA) has confirmed 16 houses and 18 sheds were lost in yesterday's fire at Dereel, south of Ballarat.
The blaze was contained overnight after burning through 1,300 hectares.
Fire crews are continuing to assess the extent of the damage and police are investigating the cause of the fire.
Road closures are still in place and evacuated residents have not been able to return to their homes.
Four firefighters injured yesterday have been released from hospital after being treated for minor burns and smoke inhalation.
Victorian Premier Denis Napthine toured the area his morning and attended a public meeting.
He says he will be acting on people's concerns in the region about mobile phone coverage during the fire.
"I'm fortunate there's a COAG meeting with the Prime Minister on the 19th of April and these are issues I can take up directly with the Prime Minister, because I believe our telephone service through Telstra and others have a moral obligation to provide universal coverage," he said.
Residents told the meeting they cannot receive emergency text messages because there is no mobile reception and internet access is minimal.
Golden Plains Shire Mayor Jenny Blake says it is a very serious issue.
"Particularly in a situation of fire, particularly for those people who are out there on the fire-ground and particularly also farmers in paddocks trying to work out where the fire is when they're moving stock," she said.
"Having mobile phone contact is absolutely important, critical in fact to people's safety and we don't have sufficient mobile service at the moment."
Gippsland questions
Meanwhile, light rain has fallen on a fire that has burnt through about 600 hectares of bush, farmland and pine plantations in Gippsland.
The fire escaped from a Department of Sustainability of Environment (DSE) fuel reduction burn, started at Hallston near Mirboo North on Monday.
DSE crews started another burn nearby on Tuesday morning, despite forecasts for a top temperature of 35 degrees Celsius on Wednesday.
The fire escaped control lines and burnt farmland.
Residents there are now asking why a controlled burn was started with hot weather forecast.
The DSE has been under pressure to complete as much controlled burning as possible this autumn, for fuel reduction, regeneration and asset protection.
The fire spread in yesterday's hot windy conditions then changed direction onto pasture and plantations after the south-westerly change last night.
Incident controller Damien O'Connor says fire crews from Hancock Plantations have joined the firefighting effort.
"It has come out of the forest into the private property [and] it has had an impact on some plantations and onto some private land," he said.
"There's been no structural losses or anything like that but there has been a bit of fence loss."
He says the rain started falling earlier today and has helped.

Shanghai's auto show is filled with hybrids and electric cars – a big industry theme in the months since massive blankets of pollution covered entire regions. But Honda Motor Co. CEO Takanobu Ito doesn't think Chinese consumers are looking for green-tech rides despite the new wave of eco-friendly cars unveiled during the show, or amid and the Japanese auto maker's own push to strengthen its hybrid lineup in recent years.
"Overall, we have high hopes for hybrid technology. In terms of how important it is to the Chinese market we are slowly releasing products and looking at how they do," Mr. Ito told reporters in Shanghai on Saturday. "But we think there are still more Chinese consumers who want to simply buy a car that fits their needs rather than buy a hybrid. By needs I mean a good-quality car with an affordable price that doesn't break down. At present, we think these take higher priority."
None of the four new concept and production vehicles introduced by Honda at the auto show on Saturday were hybrids or electric. Honda introduced three hybrid vehicles to the Chinese market last year–the CR-Z, Insight and Fit Hybrid– and plans to begin preparations to produce hybrid components there in 2014.
Honda said it only sold 542 hybrid vehicles in China in 2012.
- This mindset could eventually change, pushed along by more stringent fuel-economy standards and the government's pressure to build a green-car industry in China. Mr. Ito said that the technology would require additional costs no matter what, a premium that many consumers aren't yet willing to pay. But that could be alleviated with measures like government incentives, which have encouraged consumers to try out hybrids.
Mr. Ito said Honda will continue to gradually add hybrid vehicles to its catalog of offerings amid promising signals that the Chinese government will enact policies that would make purchasing hybrids a more attractive option.
The hurdles for facing mass market acceptance of electric vehicles are tough too, said Mr. Ito, noting the lack of infrastructure and how Chinese driving habits aren't yet well-suited to the limited mileage range offered by the battery-powered cars.

Grizzly Rose guard gunned down in parking lot
Timothy Minnick's life had been spiralling downward for years when he confronted masked thieves at the popular country and western nightclub Grizzly Rose.
In the years before his shooting death in the parking lot of the nightclub that featured the likes of Garth Brooks and Taylor Swift he had suffered some difficult setbacks.
Minnick had gone through two divorces.
A bank foreclosed on the 48-year-old's Montbello home.
He moved into a mobile home, which was destroyed by fire in February 2007. His dog was killed.
Minnick had an Internet business, Intertec Web Solutions, which tanked because much of his clients' data burned in the fire.
He declared bankruptcy months before his death.
Then another brother died of a massive heart attack.
"He was struggling to put everything back together," his brother Leland Minnick has said.
To add insult to injury, the former Brighton police officer was working a job he didn't like and was looking for something else. It was tough, though. The economy was bad and good jobs were scarce. He did have a girlfriend, though.
On Friday night, Dec. 12, 2008, Minnick was working at the nightclub that hosts some of the biggest country and western entertainers in the business and is one of the places to be during the National Western Stock Show.

To President Barack Obama, Wall Street's $18.4 billion in bonuses is "shameful." To thousands of bank employees who don't sit in corner offices, that money helps pay the bills.
Outrage over the bonuses reached as high as the White House this week following news that financial firms were rewarding employees even as they were being bailed out with billions of taxpayer dollars. The feelings are understandable: The average Wall Street bonus of $112,000 was about twice the average American's income.
But the issue is a complicated one.
While Wall Street investment banks and other financial firms make headlines for the millions paid out to certain executives, more modest bonuses go to workers from human resources representatives to secretaries, as well as employees who actually made money for their companies last year.
Jason Weisberg, vice president of the Wall Street brokerage Seaport Securities, said bank employees count on performance bonuses like salesmen count on commissions.
"What are you supposed to pay them?" Weisberg asked. "Or are you not supposed to pay them? And if you don't pay them, how do you expect that employee to stay employed at that company?"
A product manager at one investment bank said she is cutting corners after her 2008 bonus fell by 38 percent, even though her job performance exceeded expectations and her division posted a profit. To save money, she's raising the deductible on her health insurance to lower the premium, shopping around for less expensive car insurance and cutting back on small luxuries.
"My bills haven't gone down by 40 percent," said the worker, who isn't being named because talking to the media is against her employer's rules.
Many argue that anyone who works at a bank right now should feel lucky to be employed — after all, hundreds of thousands of their colleagues have been shown the door over the past year.
Most compensation experts say bonuses will be much lower in the coming years, but that some sort of bonus system should stay in place at these institutions to separate the strong performers from the laggards.
Part of the problem with bonuses for 2008 stem from many of them being contractually guaranteed before the banks' troubles escalated.
The governments "Troubled Assets Relief Program," or TARP, required compensation for senior executives to be subject to "clawbacks" — in which the companies would recoup pay if it was based on inaccurate information, or if the employee's actions hurt the company. But it did not give the government authority to scrap bonus contracts.
Consultant Vicki Elliott said she expects the banks will make fewer guarantees going forward. Elliott leads the global financial services industry consulting group at the business consulting firm Mercer, a subsidiary of Marsh & McLennan Cos.
"The landscape is changing," she said.
If it were up to James Reda, a compensation consultant who has testified on Capitol Hill, bonuses would not be cut to zero, but instead brought down to about $8 billion or $9 billion. That would be about half of the 2008 Wall Street bonus pool and about a quarter of what it was in 2007. The base salaries of most secretaries and information technology workers on Wall Street are comparable to other industries, anyway, he said.
The $18.4 billion doled out in Wall Street bonuses last year was down 44 percent from the previous year. Per person, the average bonus dropped 36.7 percent to $112,000. (It's a smaller drop because the investment banks laid off so many workers last year.)
All the very top executives at the major banks — including Citigroup, AIG, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bank of America and Merrill Lynch — gave up their bonuses.
And many major banks have been modifying their bonus policies. Both Morgan Stanley and Citigroup said late last year they plan to tie compensation for employees eligible for bonuses more closely to performance, and allow for clawbacks. Europe's UBS AG also added a clawback provision.
Managers argue that while Main Street views bonuses as extra money, the annual incentive often represents a big chunk of compensation for most Wall Street workers. That means banks would risk of losing their smartest and most productive employees if the bonuses were trimmed too dramatically.
Executive compensation consultant Steven Hall said he knows of at least one firm, which he wouldn't name, that already has drawn up a list of potential employees to poach if they are unhappy with their bonuses.
Although many people might say good riddance to any defector against this backdrop, Hall argues taxpayers should want banks to retain the cream of the crop given that the federal government has become a shareholder in so many banks.
"The reality is good people will always be able to get a job someplace else if they are unhappy," Hall said. "So do you want to own stock in a company that is filled with people who can't get a job anywhere else?"
But even to some Wall Street workers, the pay has gotten out of hand.
Gordon Charlop, managing director at the Wall Street brokerage Rosenblatt Securities, called the president's criticism "fair."
"I can't disagree with the president here," Charlop said, adding that there's a "disconnect" between pay structures on Wall Street and the companies' responsibility to the country and shareholders.
A Wall Street veteran at one financial services firm said he was notified that his bonus will be slashed by 30 percent. He would not disclose the amount, but said he isn't losing any sleep over it.
"You could absolutely make an argument that we shouldn't be getting any bonuses this year," said the worker, who also requested anonymity because of his company's restrictions on talking to the media.
"If you are going to have a pay-for-performance system, you have to take the lows with the highs," he said. "This just happened to be a really low year."
He said he feels sorry for clerks and other people making less than $60,000 per year who are also having their annual bonuses lowered through no wrongdoing of their own.
But this worker has had so many good years that he usually just earmarks his annual bonus for his retirement nest egg.
"All this means for me," he said, "is that I am going to have to work a little longer."

VictoriaPlum.com: Bringing stability and speed to e-commerce
About VictoriaPlum
Founded in 2001, VictoriaPlum.com (formerly Victoria Plumb) is the first purely online bathroom retailer in the UK, with over 1 million successful sales. In 2015, VictoriaPlum.com was named one of the fastest growing private UK companies in 2015 by the Sunday Times Profit Track 100 and launched a new range of bedroom furniture. VictoriaPlum.com is based in Hessle, East Yorkshire. More about VictoriaPlum.com: www.victoriaplum.com
Google Cloud Results:
- Tracks KPIs with dashboards on BigQuery
- Increases website speed immediately by 50 milliseconds
- Feeds innovation by eliminating DevOps with managed solutions
By eliminating the need for costly showrooms, online-only bathroom retailers VictoriaPlum.com has become one of the UK's fastest growing private companies. Every sale is made through its website and call centre, meaning flawless customer experience online is vital to the company's success. VictoriaPlum.com's previous cloud provider caused website problems including instability, insufficient speed and inflexibility that threatened the firm's growth. To resolve these issues, VictoriaPlum.com chose to increase speed and innovation with Google Cloud Platform."We are a purely online retailer. We have no stores at all. A bathroom is not something people impulse buy. The whole experience of our site is what drives our conversions. With our previous provider, we had website outages and servers would get hung all the time. You'd try to create and it would hang on the creation phase for two days. Switching to Google Cloud Platform has been a night and day difference. It's a world apart on all of our key needs: cost, simplicity, stability, and performance," says Patrick Dobbs, technical architect, VictoriaPlum.com.
Fast migration, faster website
To sell complete bathrooms through websites, companies have to create a trustworthy, immersive online experience for their customers. As one of the first online-only bathroom retailer in the UK, VictoriaPlum.com has maintained its dominant market share by remaining one step ahead of its competitors. Its previous cloud provider was slow, unstable, and provided poor customer service and unreliable autoscaling features. VictoriaPlum.com aimed to ensure optimal website availability and speed alongside a development environment to encourage innovation.
That's why VictoriaPlum.com moved to Google Cloud Platform. Its small team created a replication of its existing stack on Google Compute Engine and completed the migration in just one and a half months. Now VictoriaPlum.com is moving onto Google Container Engine, using Kubernetes to wrap clunky legacy services for simple deployment. From Google Analytics Premium, the company exports data to Google BigQuery for near real time analysis, while internally BigQuery stores client-side performance metrics to be queried in real time. That helps staff track KPIs such as site speed on dashboards that measure average TTFP, load time, interactive time, and time to first ping. Reliable autoscaling makes setting up new features quick and simple, and by eliminating the need for DevOps in general, staff can spend more time adding value to the business with new software."Cost is always a driving factor, but we'd actually pay more for a better service. Thankfully, we don't have to make that choice. We've never had to struggle with Google Cloud Platform and it's 40 to 50% cheaper than its competitors. Part of that was due to the simplicity of calculating costs. The GCP console and documentation make it very clear and easy to work out what to do, while other cloud providers made it difficult to work out pricing ahead of time and offered six different services where GCP has one. Compare that to GCP's sustained usage discount which gives us an ever increasing discount as we go through the month. It's a no-brainer," says Patrick Dobbs, technical architect, VictoriaPlum.com.
Innovation unburdened by DevOps
VictoriaPlum.com experienced a website speed increase of 50 milliseconds immediately after migrating. Now, to exploit the new opportunities on GCP, the company's tech team is expanding by 50% as the company moves more and more of its architecture onto Container Engine with Kubernetes. Using machine learning APIs, VictoriaPlum.com is also working on a new feature that recognises items in customer photos of their own bathrooms, while its business intelligence department is moving its OLAP analytics into BigQuery."Customer service with Google is fantastic, especially the postmortems they provide following any kind of issue. I can then take these up the chain and say "Look, this is what happened, these are the measures they've put in place to make sure it won't happen again." We just didn't get that kind of transparency with our previous cloud provider," says Patrick.

Sorry for the marathon post. With metta, Sukin
Sorry? - Are you mad? - Thank you for such a wonderful and lovely post.
'Wolfgang' 'Jun 21 2006, 04:05 PM' '#28':
So now we seem to arrive at a standstill: Were I say that only with formal practice I could see ignorance, as you only could see it with the study of Abhidhamma. - And you insist, ignorance can only by seen by the study of Abhidhamma, and not by 'formal practice'. - So... what to do?
I think now we are both sure to agree that we disagree. Having put so much effort to arrive at this conclusion, I think we both have earned our time off. Anyway, lately we both seem to be the only ones involved in any real discussion here.
My mother just had her second hip joint re-done. Despite, she had to suffer so much pain for so many months. Therefore, I apologize if through anything I said you felt pressured to reply fast in your already stressful situation. I would have been just as glad with your answer in 2 weeks time. However, I really appreciate your love to Dhamma.
With good wishes to all your family members,
Dear Robert,

Please use one of the links in my last post or start a new topis, such as "Does Abhidhamma lead to right view" etc . Otherwise this thread will get crowded with various topics. Thanks, Robert
You just avoided a straight answer by rewording my question to your favors! With half your words you could since long have answered very precisely!
However, no answer - in this context - is a very clear answer!

Front Line Assembly is a Canadian industrial/EBM band formed by Bill Leeb in 1986 after leaving Skinny Puppy (another Canadian industrial/EBM band).
In 1990, I was in Chicago buying records and CD's. I was looking for industrial music. With the help of one of the store's staff who was exposing me to a lot of industrial music artists, he placed this particular CD single in my hand (the very same one pictured above). He was kind enough to unwrap and put it inside a CD player. And then he handed me the heaphones and made me listen to Provision. I was immediately blown away from the very first beat/note. After few measures, the pulsating & punchy basslines kicked in. Knocked me off my feet. I just had to have it. So I bought it.
Front Line Assembly – "Provision"…
Artist: Front Line Assembly
Title: Provision
Year: 1990
Label: Wax Trax! Records

One of the nation's best known national parks is also one of many celebrating milestones this year. Ten years, 70 years, 100 years — from coast to coast, more than a century of historic preservation is there for the viewing.
If, that is, you know where to look. The fact is, few parks have made much of their decadal significance. In large part, that's because most were "born" even earlier as forest grants or national monuments and their official birthdays only refer to the dates they were designated as national parks.
Still, considering that 16 of America's 58 national parks are celebrating some sort of decadal anniversary this year, it seems like a good excuse for a late-year visit to one or more of them. Each of the eight parks below offers its own take on American history — or you can wait for Veterans Day (Nov. 11) when admission fees will be waived.
First protected in 1864 — eight years before Yellowstone became America's first national park — Yosemite was officially designated a national park on Oct. 1, 1890. For a taste of its earliest days, take a break from the crowds in Yosemite Valley and head to the Pioneer Yosemite History Center in Wawona, just inside the park's south entrance. Tour the vintage stores and cabins; take a horse-drawn carriage ride, and be thankful for the ensuing improvements in the park's visitor services.

Home to several of the largest trees on the planet, Sequoia National Park could very easily have boasted some of the largest stumps on the planet if it hadn't been designated a national park in 1890. (Fortunately, sequoias make lousy lumber.) Naturally, you'll want to check out the Giant Forest, but afterward, head over to the Wolverton BBQ, which combines an outdoor, all-you-can buffet with living-history presentations about pioneer life and the park's early days ($21.99 for adults, $9.99 for children, through September 5).
One hundred years ago last May, Glacier became the 10th park in America's burgeoning National Park system. This year, the park in northwest Montana is commemorating its centennial with interpretive programs, art exhibits and a new book chronicling 100 years' worth of local stories. After a day amid the peaks and snowfields, head to the Hockaday Museum of Art, in nearby Kalispell, where the oil paintings of John Fery (1859–1934) and large-format photographs of Chris Peterson bookend the park's past and present.
Most folks who visit Carlsbad Caverns in southern New Mexico opt for the free, self-guided tours of the Big Room, a one-mile stroll augmented by electric lighting. Instead, sign up for a Ranger-led tour of Left Hand Tunnel, a two-hour excursion led by lantern-light. Shifting shadows only accentuate the fanciful formations, at least until everyone cuts their lights and you're plunged into the same darkness that greeted early explorers. (Note: tour fees — $7 for adults, $3.50 for children — still apply during fee-free weekends.)
Once mined for copper, then logged for timber, Isle Royale National Park in Lake Superior has spent much of the intervening years reverting to wilderness. To experience it in relative comfort, consider taking an interpretive cruise/hike on board the M.V. Sandy. The Edisen Fishery/Rock Harbor Light tour ($37.75), for example, visits the oldest lighthouse (1855) on the island while the Northside Cruise/Minong Mine tour ($45.25) traverses harbors, bays and a mine site from the 1870s.
Fifty years ago, what is now Biscayne National Park, outside Miami, almost became the site of a major urban development and industrial seaport. Fortunately, the plan was scrapped; the area was declared a national monument and eventually designated a national park. Today, you can get a glimpse of what was at stake by heading to Elliott Key, where the so-called Spite Highway — a six-lane road bulldozed in protest in 1967 — now forms the park's one real hiking trail.
The Channel Islands, off the coast of Southern California, bear witness to 12,000 years of human history, but have only been a national park for 30. To explore that longer span, head to the one-year-old visitor center at Scorpion Ranch on Santa Cruz Island, which highlights native Chumash culture, pioneer living and the park's phenomenal biodiversity.
Although it was designated a national park just 10 years ago, Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Ohio has been providing an escape from the pressures of urban life for more than a century. The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad retraced that rich history last month with a variety of daily excursions, including a special series of runs powered by vintage steam locomotives.

Since 1976, the C S Lewis Institute has influenced the lives of thoughtful believers.
"In all my travels around the world, I have never seen a discipleship program as effective as that at the C.S. Lewis Institute."
"The C.S. Lewis Institute is a great effort to instruct eager minds in probing the depths of moral imagination and spiritual truth."
"The C.S. Lewis Institute is one of the nation's premier catalysts of the Christian mind, offering the churches a rich diet of spiritual and intellectual nourishment. I am thrilled by its vision for the future."
"It's been the most effective resource I have experienced in my 34 years of ministry. It provides rigorous but achievable opportunities to grow in grace, wisdom and maturity."
"I've seen how high commitment (through the Fellows Program) has resulted in great growth over a short period of time."
"The Fellows Program deepens the faith and commitment of people in the local church, and I found that they come back from their experience in the Fellows Program more committed to the local church and better equipped to serve."
"I love the DNA of this ministry that has such a broad appeal to the body of Christ. Not broad in that it waters anything down, but broad in the fact that there is something about the clarity in its presentation of the truth that is so attractive."
