As today is World Suicide Prevention Day, a film entitled "U Can Cope" has been launched. The film features a number of very strong, emotional and honest testimonials by men and women who, for very different reasons, had found themselves thinking suicide was the only option. They all sought help, however, and soon came to realise they were not alone, that it was a huge relief to talk to someone about their problems and that they could find new reasons for living.
The film has been funded by a number of leading charities working to reduce suicide, alongside professional bodies, primary care and training organisations. It includes expert commentaries from Consultant Liaison Psychiatrist, Dr Alys Cole-King and Professor Stephen Platt, a Samaritans' Trustee and eminent academic in the field of suicide prevention. It promotes three main messages:
Anyone can experience suicidal thoughts,
There is always hope,
There is always help.
Suicide – bit of a taboo word, isn't it? The sort of word that can hush a room full of people, the sort of word reserved for serious conversations and serious, perhaps desperate times; the sort of word that isn't thrown about willingly. In short, it's a word that everyone knows but not everyone is familiar with, or thinks about, the devastating effects the act can, and does, have on family members, friends, a community, even strangers. Some people think of suicide as a way out of a situation, or situations, that they can no longer control. For example, financial difficulties or relationship problems. But there are better choices; there is a lot of support out there and people who are able to help a person who's struggling with thoughts of suicide to get through those thoughts and to provide them with hope and show anyone who's struggling to cope that it is possible to overcome any suicidal thoughts and feelings.
The underlying reasons for feeling suicidal are different for each person. Sometimes it may be due to a mental illness or physical illness or triggered by things like the loss of a relationship, the loss of support, financial worries, appearing in court or the death of a loved one. But it's not always the case that a person necessarily wants their life to end, it's usually because they feel that they just cannot cope with their emotional or physical pain any more. And that they feel the best decision would be to end all the pain, as they won't suffer anymore.
But there is hope and help for anyone who needs it. All you need to do is pick up the phone or email. We need to talk about problems and our worries more so that people are not afraid to seek help.
If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts, be aware of the help that is available to you. It may seem like you're the only person who can deal with your problems but there are other people out there just like you. And they, too, are struggling with problems of their own.
There are leading charities working to reduce suicide, alongside professional bodies, primary care and training organisations who are there to help and guide you through getting past these thoughts.
Get in touch with some of the organisations today. It could be the best thing you've done. People are here to help:

If you only can make it to one ISE show take a trip to Sacramento
Have you ever seen a bass take down a duckling? We haven't either, but we have
talked to fishing Pros that have. Persuader brings us a topwater bait quite
unlike any other... the new "Baby Duck." The Baby Duck is a floating bait that
moves forward and makes feeding motions as it is twitched back to the boat. The
lure has been fished by pro's such as Randy Pringle, and at the booth a video
was shown where the Baby Duck received an aggressive strike and ultimately
landed the largemouth.
A topwater lure quite unlike any
other...the new Persuader Baby Duck
The Baby Duck makes use of a steel shank through
the bait which securely holds the Mustad treble hooks. The finish on the Baby
Duck was very impressive, and if anything this lure looks right at home in a
collectors case.
This duckling has a mean
bite...courtesy of two Mustad treble hooks
The lure is hand painted and actually has real
feathers on the duckling's back encased underneath three very thick coats of
enamel. We expected the lure to retail for a lot more than the 17 dollar MSRP.
Check out the real
feathers on the lure's back!
Best known for premium spinnerbaits Persuader had
their newest "E-Chip" lures on hand. The E-Chip is a patented technology that
emits a electrical pulse designed to attract fish strikes.
The EChip consists of a small stainless steel
tube with a stainless ball inside. At one end of the tube there is a special
ceramic crystal. As the ball strikes each end, the crystal produces a tiny
electric impulse which duplicates the nerve discharge of a wounded baitfish. The
E-Chip is attached directly below the silicone skirt. The E-Chip armed
spinnerbait is available in 3/6 and 1/2oz sizes and retails for $6.99.

Using Designer Fragrance and Human anatomy Spray
First and foremost, human anatomy sprays are in no way, shape, or variety an alternative to deodorant. In fact, a person of this kind of newfound trend must certanly be cautious not to have the aroma of these deodorant clash with this of the most well-liked body apply (something that the fairer sex has been dealing with for years...and a little bit of personal assistance would be to go with a more delicate deodorant to bring the best type of awareness of the used human anatomy spray.)
The general make-up of human body spray is less centered than that of perfume, therefore treating it on your own clear epidermis is a good spot to start. (Please be advised that human anatomy sprays, along with other types of particular fragrances, have a percentage of alcohol included; so do not spray near open wounds or onto useful parts.) Because the smell is mild, you'll want to layer it, just like you do your clothes. As you add on fighters and t-shirt, spray much more human body spray onto your clothes. Your apparel collection should have a mild layer about it, along with your opted for outerwear and a short spray in your hair. The adding of odor can have a somewhat residual effect as you go by, not an overpowering one that will cause the ladies eyes to tear.
On your final notice, choose your odor properly, because the sense of smell is the one which is related probably the most with memory. Consider visiting your grandmother's house on a Sunday morning when she just pulled that hot apple pie out of the oven. And the time in junior senior school when you caught your first whiff of Love's Baby Soft---it possibly reminds you of the eighth rank dance and your first (and last) party with the near future prom queen. Choosing a scent that is wonderful for the proper causes is just a surefire way to have the effect you're seeking best-body-spray-for-women-review .
Something you will generally require at home is a bathroom. And in the contemporary bathroom a bath process is a must; might it be electric baths, mixer showers, shower human body sprays or others. The shower programs not only help to steadfastly keep up your personal sanitation and health, additionally it revitalizes you at the start or conclusion of the day. Although some people aren't really specific about the kind of bath techniques they choose and are satisfied with just the normal types, the need for the newer and more advanced types and styles is increasing fast in the market.

Installation Benefits Of Prefabricated Timber Roofing Trusses
One of the key benefits of using roofing trusses for your property build is that you do not have to handle their construction at all. Trusses can be measured and constructed in prefab designs by a roof truss manufacturer. Apart from easing your construction workload, prefabricated roofing trusses also bear some great advantages when it comes to installation. Read on to see what they are.
No space limitations
One of the limitations during a build is space. If you do not have enough space, you cannot produce your materials on time, and this can cause delays. As you can imagine, trusses can take quite a bit of space during construction or storage. With prefab trusses, this is never an issue. The trusses will be manufactured away from the site in an established factory. Your trusses will therefore be manufactured on time. What's more, you will have more space on your site to handle your other construction processes.
No installation/construction delays
When you order prefabricated roof trusses, you shift the construction responsibility from your workforce to a separate truss manufacturer. This means that no matter how busy your workforce might be, that will not affect the production of your trusses. What's more, you can order prefab trusses way ahead of time and have them delivered on the installation day (or any other date you choose). There are therefore no delays to the build schedule whatsoever.
Quick installation
Once your trusses arrive, they are already prepped, measured, and tested. All you have to do is hoist them onto the roof and lock them in place via the provided brackets. The process is straightforward and quick. Furthermore, chances of making mistakes are greatly reduced. In addition to that, the process makes roofing much safer because workers spend less time working at elevated heights.
No cutting or wastage on site
Prefab roof trusses eliminate the need to cut timber pieces to size during installation. This is because the trusses are already cut-to-size and joined, ready for precise installation. This has great befits for your build. One, time is not wasted preparing the fit of the trusses. Two, there is no wastage of timber. Three, there is less mess created during the roofing operation.
To get prefabricated roofing trusses for your build, get in touch with a roof truss manufacturer near you, like Wadsworth Joinery. Discuss your build design and settle on the ideal truss design. Your truss manufacturer will commence production and you can proceed with the rest of the build.

By now, you probably know Circuit City went bankrupt, failed to find a buyer, and eventually decided to just call it quits and shutter its 567 U.S. retail stores. Well, now we know when the last stores are finally closing down: March 8.
According to a press release up on Business Wire, the four companies handling "going-out-of-business sales" at Circuit City retail locations say some stores have already shut down for good because of depleted inventory, and the remainder will close on Sunday. Liquidations have been going on since January 17, the day after Circuit City said it was going out of business.
With CompUSA gone since December 2007, the closure of the final Circuit City stores should leave Best Buy with the lion's share of the consumer electronics retail market in the States.

Current Version:
Linux Kernel - 3.80
int madvise(void *addr, size_t length, int advice);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
madvise(): _BSD_SOURCE
Conventional advice values
The advice is indicated in the advice argument, which is one of the following:
- No special treatment. This is the default.
- Expect page references in random order. (Hence, read ahead may be less useful than normally.)
- Expect page references in sequential order. (Hence, pages in the given range can be aggressively read ahead, and may be freed soon after they are accessed.)
- Expect access in the near future. (Hence, it might be a good idea to read some pages ahead.)
Do not expect access in the near future.
(For the time being, the application is finished with the given range,
so the kernel can free resources associated with it.)
After a successful MADV_DONTNEED operation, the semantics of memory access in the specified region are changed: subsequent accesses of pages in the range will succeed, but will result in either repopulating the memory contents from the up-to-date contents of the underlying mapped file (for shared file mappings, shared anonymous mappings, and shmem-based techniques such as System V shared memory segments) or zero-fill-on-demand pages for anonymous private mappings.
Note that, when applied to shared mappings, MADV_DONTNEED might not lead to immediate freeing of the pages in the range. The kernel is free to delay freeing the pages until an appropriate moment. The resident set size (RSS) of the calling process will be immediately reduced however.
MADV_DONTNEED cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or VM_PFNMAP pages. (Pages marked with the kernel-internal VM_PFNMAP flag are special memory areas that are not managed by the virtual memory subsystem. Such pages are typically created by device drivers that map the pages into user space.)
Linux-specific advice values
- MADV_REMOVE (since Linux 2.6.16)
Free up a given range of pages
and its associated backing store.
This is equivalent to punching a hole in the corresponding byte
range of the backing store (see
Subsequent accesses in the specified address range will see
bytes containing zero.
The specified address range must be mapped shared and writable. This flag cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or VM_PFNMAP pages.
In the initial implementation, only shmfs/tmpfs supported MADV_REMOVE; but since Linux 3.5, any filesystem which supports the fallocate(2) FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE mode also supports MADV_REMOVE. Other filesystems fail with the error EOPNOTSUPP.
- MADV_DONTFORK (since Linux 2.6.16)
- Do not make the pages in this range available to the child after a fork(2). This is useful to prevent copy-on-write semantics from changing the physical location of a page if the parent writes to it after a fork(2). (Such page relocations cause problems for hardware that DMAs into the page.)
- MADV_DOFORK (since Linux 2.6.16)
- Undo the effect of MADV_DONTFORK, restoring the default behavior, whereby a mapping is inherited across fork(2).
- MADV_HWPOISON (since Linux 2.6.32)
Poison a page and handle it like a hardware memory corruption.
This operation is available only for privileged
This operation may result in the calling process receiving a
and the page being unmapped.
This feature is intended for testing of memory error-handling code; it is available only if the kernel was configured with CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE.
- MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE (since Linux 2.6.33)
Soft offline the pages in the range specified by
The memory of each page in the specified range is preserved
(i.e., when next accessed, the same content will be visible,
but in a new physical page frame),
and the original page is offlined
(i.e., no longer used, and taken out of normal memory management).
The effect of the
operation is invisible to (i.e., does not change the semantics of)
the calling process.
This feature is intended for testing of memory error-handling code; it is available only if the kernel was configured with CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE.
- MADV_MERGEABLE (since Linux 2.6.32)
Enable Kernel Samepage Merging (KSM) for the pages in the range specified by
The kernel regularly scans those areas of user memory that have
been marked as mergeable,
looking for pages with identical content.
These are replaced by a single write-protected page (which is automatically
copied if a process later wants to update the content of the page).
KSM merges only private anonymous pages (see
The KSM feature is intended for applications that generate many instances of the same data (e.g., virtualization systems such as KVM). It can consume a lot of processing power; use with care. See the Linux kernel source file Documentation/vm/ksm.txt for more details.
The MADV_MERGEABLE and MADV_UNMERGEABLE operations are available only if the kernel was configured with CONFIG_KSM.
- MADV_UNMERGEABLE (since Linux 2.6.32)
- Undo the effect of an earlier MADV_MERGEABLE operation on the specified address range; KSM unmerges whatever pages it had merged in the address range specified by addr and length.
- MADV_HUGEPAGE (since Linux 2.6.38)
Enable Transparent Huge Pages (THP) for pages in the range specified by
Currently, Transparent Huge Pages work only with private anonymous pages (see
The kernel will regularly scan the areas marked as huge page candidates
to replace them with huge pages.
The kernel will also allocate huge pages directly when the region is
naturally aligned to the huge page size (see
This feature is primarily aimed at applications that use large mappings of data and access large regions of that memory at a time (e.g., virtualization systems such as QEMU). It can very easily waste memory (e.g., a 2MB mapping that only ever accesses 1 byte will result in 2MB of wired memory instead of one 4KB page). See the Linux kernel source file Documentation/vm/transhuge.txt for more details.
The MADV_HUGEPAGE and MADV_NOHUGEPAGE operations are available only if the kernel was configured with CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE.
- MADV_NOHUGEPAGE (since Linux 2.6.38)
- Ensures that memory in the address range specified by addr and length will not be collapsed into huge pages.
- MADV_DONTDUMP (since Linux 3.4)
- Exclude from a core dump those pages in the range specified by addr and length. This is useful in applications that have large areas of memory that are known not to be useful in a core dump. The effect of MADV_DONTDUMP takes precedence over the bit mask that is set via the /proc/PID/coredump_filter file (see core(5)).
- MADV_DODUMP (since Linux 3.4)
- Undo the effect of an earlier MADV_DONTDUMP.
Return Value
- advice is MADV_REMOVE, but the specified address range is not a shared writable mapping.
- A kernel resource was temporarily unavailable.
- The map exists, but the area maps something that isn't a file.
- addr is not page-aligned or length is negative.
- advice is not a valid.
- advice is MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_REMOVE and the specified address range includes locked, Huge TLB pages, or VM_PFNMAP pages.
- advice is MADV_MERGEABLE or MADV_UNMERGEABLE, but the kernel was not configured with CONFIG_KSM.
- (for MADV_WILLNEED) Paging in this area would exceed the process's maximum resident set size.
- (for MADV_WILLNEED) Not enough memory: paging in failed.
- Addresses in the specified range are not currently mapped, or are outside the address space of the process.
- advice is MADV_HWPOISON, but the caller does not have the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability.
Conforming To
POSIX.1-2001 describes posix_madvise(3) with constants POSIX_MADV_NORMAL, POSIX_MADV_RANDOM, POSIX_MADV_SEQUENTIAL, POSIX_MADV_WILLNEED, and POSIX_MADV_DONTNEED, and so on, with behavior close to the similarly named flags listed above. (POSIX.1-2008 adds a further flag, POSIX_MADV_NOREUSE, that has no analog in madvise(2).)

In verse 11 of the Isha Upanishad, the result of integration and acceptance of the "Knowledge" and the "Ignorance" is declared: "…by the Ignorance crosses beyond death and by the Knowledge enjoys Immortality." How can we interpret and understand what is implied here? The Ignorance focuses on the manifestation of the universe. The Knowledge focuses on the Unmanifest. The Upanishad in its totality makes it clear that the egoistic standpoint of consciousness is an illusion, which, once overcome, brings us to a correct view of both our individuality and our Oneness with all forms and beings, the entire manifestation and the transcendent impersonal Brahman. Our entire understanding of birth and death changes when we recognize that the Multiplicity is an expression of the Oneness.
Sri Aurobindo explains: "By death is meant the state of mortality which is a subjection to the process of constant birth and dying as a limited ego bound to the dualities of joy and sorrow, good and evil, truth and error, love and hatred, pleasure and suffering. … the soul attributes to itself a certain portion only of the play of Prakriti or Chit-Shakti and consequently a certain limited capacity of force of consciousness which has to bear all the impact of what the soul does not regard as itself but as a rush of alien forces… [The ego] … can master by the understanding only so much of its experiences as assimilate with its own viewpoint and in a way which must always be imperfect and subject to error because it is not the view of all or the viewpoint of the All. … Death therefore is the constant denial by the All of the ego's false self-limitation in the individual frame of mind, life and body. … It is only by accepting the oneness of the All that the individual can escape from this constant and necessary denial and attain beyond. Then All-being, All-force, All-consciousness, All-truth, All-delight take possession of the individual soul. It changes mortality for immortality."
"The first necessity is therefore for man continually to enlarge himself in being, knowledge, joy, power in the limits of the ego so that he may arrive at the conception of something which progressively manifests itself in him in these terms and becomes more and more powerful to deal with the oppositions of Prakriti and to change, individually, more and more the terms of ignorance, suffering and weakness into the terms of knowledge, joy and power and even death into a means of wider life."
"Immortality does not mean survival of the self or the ego after dissolution of the body. The Self always survives the dissolution of the body, because it always pre-existed before the birth of the body. The self is unborn and undying. … By immortality is meant the consciousness which is beyond birth and death, beyond the chain of cause and effect, beyond all bondage and limitation, free, blissful, self-existent in conscious-being, the consciousness of the Lord, of the supreme Purusha, of Sachchidananda."
"Immortality beyond the universe is not the object of manifestation in the universe, for that the Self always possessed. Man exists in order that through him the Self may enjoy Immortality in the birth as well as in the non-becoming."
Sri Aurobindo, The Upanishads, Isha Upanishad and analysis, pp. 21-23, 28 & 51-73

Political signs are popping up in west Georgia. Campaign mailers are cluttering mailboxes. The race in the special election for the open seat in state Senate District 30 is off and running.
But Glenn Richardson, the once powerful Speaker of the House of Georgia, is still struggling at the starting line. By late-week, the man who once directed a quarter-million-dollar war chest and engineered a historic Republican takeover in the House, was still waiting to get his yard signs back from the printer.
There was a reason for the delay. "I had to have the money before I ordered them," the Paulding County attorney said a bit sheepishly. "I'm not independently wealthy."
In fact, he said, he's pretty close to broke. Most months, he struggles to pay his mortgage. And campaign contributions are not exactly flowing in. What once was an endless stream of $1,000 donations is now drips and drabs of checks with one or two fewer zeroes.
Such is the state of the man whose life infamously cratered three years ago, forcing him to resign in 2009 from the post he spent career chasing. A divorce, financial woes, a suicide attempt and news of an affair with a lobbyist seemingly ended a meteoric career.
Richardson's chance for a come back came when Gov. Nathan Deal named former state Sen. Bill Hamrick to be a Superior Court judge on the Coweta Judicial Circuit. Three other Republicans are also running: former state Rep. Bill Hembree, R-Winston, who resigned from the House to run for the Senate; Jim Naughton, a former textile executive and Michael Dugan, a retired Army lieutenant colonel.
They don't have Richardson's name recognition, but they carry far less baggage.
So far, none of the candidates have made Richardson's past an issue, but that could change if he makes it into a runoff and suddenly becomes the focus of attention.
"It's hard to get people excited about his problems in a presidential election," said former GOP legislator Matt Towery, who runs a polling firm. "But a runoff is another matter. If he gets into a runoff, he'll be the only one to focus on."
Voters have largely been accepting, Richardson contends, although a few have told him they cannot forgive him. "I haven't received nearly as many attacks as I thought I would," he said.
Richardson's announcement more than a month ago that he was running brought surprise but not necessarily shock.
"When he first announced there were some people shaking their heads but then you started hearing people saying that when he was speaker he did a good job," said Bert Blood, chairman of the Republican Party in Douglas County.
The Nov. 6 primary most likely will go to a runoff on Dec. 4, observers say, because there are four candidates, all with built-in geographical constituencies. More than half the nearly 1,000-square-mile, 90,000-voter district is in Carroll County and the other portions are in Douglas and Paulding counties.
Hembree, a Republican state rep with 18 years in office lives near Douglasville and has roots in Carroll. Naughton and Dugan both live in Carroll County.
Dugan, who has served in war zones in Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan, said Hembree and Richardson have good name recognition but may be seen as incumbents in an atmosphere where political experience is often seen as a detriment, a negative Naughton cited as well.
"I don't see an advantage to re-electing guys who have already been there," Naughton said.
Towery said the presidential race will overshadow this campaign and the candidates will all be underdogs to some extent — Naughton and Dugan because they are newcomers, Hembree because he represented just a portion of the area and Richardson because of his past.
How do they overcome that? Money, Towery said.
"I won't be surprised if this turns out to be an expensive race," Towery said. "A lot of people owe a lot to Glenn Richardson. Do they come back to the table? I don't know."
State campaign law requires the candidates to disclose how much they have raised two weeks prior to the voting, so none of the candidates have yet had to reveal what they can spend.
Hembree has $49,000 in his election fund as a state rep but said he does not know it he can use the funds. In 2009, Richardson contributed $219,000 from his election fund to MMV Alliance PAC, a fund he started to elect Republicans. He said he cannot use the money for his election. Naughton, a successful businessman in his own right, is related by marriage to the Richards family, who owns Southwire, the cable manufacturing giant in Carrollton.
The two-month-long race, Hembree said, is a "100-yard dash at Olympic pace," forcing candidates to eschew a slow, get-to-know-voters campaign and instead try to find them in groups whenever they can. Also, he hits the phones hard for contributions, making 100 calls a day.
"It's a very grueling process," Hembree said.
Richardson is running as somewhat of a populist. He wants the courts to take over the foreclosure process, a move that would make it harder for banks to take back homes. "I think I have a better perspective now for people hurting than I ever had," said Richardson. "I've been there."
The details of his departure from office were well documented in the media but they seem to be barely a blip in this election. In fact, the election itself is barely making a ripple.
"People are not discussing it; it's not on the radar," said Dan McBrayer, an insurance agent in Carrollton and former county commissioner. "It seems like the voters are not interested in this race."
Harvey Persons, Douglasville's mayor, agrees. "It's weird, you don't hear anything going on. It's a tough one to handicap."
Steve Anthony, a political aide to legendary Democratic Speaker Tom Murphy and now a Georgia State University professor, called Richardson a long shot.
"Even if he makes the runoff, I can't conceive that he'll win," he said. "The obstacles are too great. There's a buzz about the race, but it's kind of like, 'Jeez.'"
McBrayer said the general apathy might help Richardson. "People may see the names on the ballot and say, 'Wait, I know that guy.'
"But the real deal will be in December at the runoff, which will be more bizarre," McBrayer added. "People can get up and dust themselves off and reinvent themselves. We'll see."

A fine example of the Chevrolet Camaro on the track! We found this posted on ModernCamaro.com this week.
Early this year, the successful Dutch motorsport entrepreneur decided to bring the Chevrolet Camaro to GT4 regulations, built by Riley Motorsport Technologies in Mooresville, North Carolina, to Europe. Soon after that, Verschuur announced his intention to enter two Camaros under the banner of his own team for the HTC Dutch GT4 Championship, the highest motor racing category in The Netherlands. The fact that it took longer than planned for the cars to make their race debut is also the result of Verschuur's philosophy, which already helped him score many victories, among others in the Le Mans 24 Hours and various European Renault one-make competitions. "There is no use racing the car when it doesn't fully suit our requirements. First, we wanted to adapt the Camaro to European standards, and only go racing when we were fully satisfied", Verschuur explained.

Site History
Septembuary 2029
Approaching the 10th of lockdown. Can't remember what the outside world is like. Everyone's now catching Covid-25.
November 2019 (in the Martian calendar)
Done stuff. Don't like the colour of the site title but can't find another one that shows up. Does the site need a title? Do I need a site? Do I care? No.
September 2017
Decided to go back to WordPress again.
July 2018 (version 1)
Scrapped my WordPress site temporarily and resurrect this one.
February 2010 – June 2017
What I was I doing to the site. I can't remember but I'm sure it was very interesting or not.
Januwary 2010
Totally restructured the site, added new pages, moved and renamed old pages, shuffled content around, got totally lost, panicked, sorted it out all out, now happy again.
August 2008
A jaunt around the Midlands, visiting Warwick Castle (horribly touristy), Twycross Zoo and Kenilworth Castle (much better!) with new photos added around the album.
2 August 2008
A visit to the Prescott Hill vintage hill climb has resulted in a new section in the gallery.
31 Nay 2008
'1968 And All That' event at the National Railway Museum, so some more pictures have turned up in the 'Steam' section of the gallery.
May 2008
Grace – We have a new four-legged member of the family; a grey kitten called Grace who now has her own area in the album.
-27 May 2008
The last day of the holiday (boo-hoo). A quick trip to the beach at Greve de Lecq in the morning and just a couple of photos for today; one of a nice print in the cottage (artist Tim Thompson, but I can't find the name of it).
3 April 0x7D8
Off to Jersey Zoo, or 'Durrell' as it is now called, after its founder; Gerald Durrell. I can't say I like the new name, but I still took lots of photos, the best of which are to be found in today's gallery update. Went to the beach at St. Brelades in the evening, just to add a few more pictures
33 March 03730
Took the ferry to Guernsey today. Two of us were sick and I wished I'd walked. On arrival, I was interviewed by a journalist from the local press – I initially thought that he must have heard about this web site, but it turned out that he was looking for a story about the ferry which we'd travelled on as it has apparently had a run of technical problems recently.
Later two of our team mutinied and refused to board the ferry to Herm and spent the day in Castle Cornet instead. For the day's photos and a couple of bonus shots from last night, follow the link below:
32 March 2008
Continued the continuation by adding pictures from the maritime museum in St. Helier. We went to a vineyard and a pottery as well, but I was too busy carrying Lois's shopping to take any pictures. Contributions to the J. M. Skilleter Wallet Restoration Fund are urgently required and will be gratefully received.
31 March 2008
Continued the vanity insanity by adding today's collection of pictures from Mount Orgueil Castle.
30 March 2008
In a totally pointless and probably futile exercise driven only by withdrawal symptoms from my regular games of Scrabble and a feeling of 'well, why not?' (the answers to which were very carefully ignored), I've decided to replace usual handing around of 100+ boring photographs to people who weren't interested after photo number 3 with an online, daily-updated, live photo album of the holiday whilst I'm on holiday!!! This must be great news for everyone as I can show off how clever I am (I wish) and everyone can honestly say "I've already seen them" when we offer to show them our holiday photographs when we get back.
23/02/2007 Even More Updates
New album! Bananas????
29/10/2006 More Updates
More photos added. Many more to go….
17/10/2006 Belated Update
Finally got around to redesigning the site completely – well, nearly completely….
Got a new recently as well – a dark green Ford Mundano. Boring, but big, safe, reasonably driveable and (hopefully) more reliable than that bl**dy Astra and, for that matter, the previous bl**dy Astra.
29/8/2005 Update
Just noticed that I haven't updated this page for 3 years. Shows how exciting my life is doesn't it?
15/5/2002 Breaking News (ha ha! (I don't think!))
Someone decided to try and embed their Post Office van in the side of my car as I was driving home tonight.
Yes, thanks, I'm uninjured. What? You didn't ask? What do you mean; you don't care! Well, really……
19/2/2001 Minor Update
Well, I keep saying "I must update the web pages" and then do nothing about it. I haven't actually done very much this time, but at least it proves that I'm still alive (as far as I know).
I managed to resist the temptations of Perl, Java and ECMAscript, much to my sanity's relief, and I'm still plodding along in my day job with C for little black boxes. Nothing much seems to have happened over the last 6 months or so, which means life is peaceful but a little boring and I'm almost certainly going to wish that I'd never said that at some point!
28/6/2000 Image Problems
Ho hum, well I got the pages sorted (or so I thoughted (so says, lapsing into whimsical rhyme for a moment)) only to have someone send me a nice email telling me that some pages had pictures which covered up the text! How is that possible with HTML? Goodness knows, it seems to be something to do with image alignment. Serves me right for not reading the manual. Oh well, I'll just have to go back and sort them all out. Two updates in two days, not to mention a minor tweak to the RoADA pages (Advanced Driving) as well! Goodness me, I'm becoming a proper little webmaster now! I even know what CGI is, although I still haven't a clue what it stands for. I'm also getting this strange urge to learn Perl, Java and even ECMAscript, which sounds like a particularly nasty skin disease….
Now where was I…..
Oh dear, looks like I either stick my images above/below my text or use tables with invisible borders to keep everything apart. I wonder if there's a better way to do this kind of thing. Off we go then, just when I thought I'd got rid of the tables on the site……
26/6/2000 Improved Design
Righty-oh then (he says, out of character, but in an attempt to confuse the spellig checker) this thyme, I'm really, really, really going to get around to uploading the latest version of the web site to good old www.skilleter.org. Even though Rollercoaster Tycoon is beckoning at me seductively from it's CD jewel case, and I have some work on the Windows version of the Jed editor (superb bit of code, go to "The JED Programmer's Editor" page if you like your programmer's editors UNIX-style with lots of power and no bells and whistles) that I should be doing.
I'm going to get rid of those irritating tables and put some more text for you to ignore whilst looking at the pictures. I might even add a few more of them, since I've had some feedback over the last few months from one or two people who actually said that they like the site (no, not just my mother….)
13/3/2000 Not Much
Bit more work, played around with the design, went to bed. Night-night.
12/3/2000 More Pictures
Another little update with a few new photographic imagary including one one or two of me on the Royal Scot many, many years ago (ye gods, 'twas over a quarter of century ago!). See the 'Butlins' link on the left for more information!
I've also stuck another nice picture of the boys on the site (I have a nasty feeling that I'm going to find a photo of me on the site somewhere if I keep letting Robert play games on the PC (Worms is a favourite at the moment (go to www.team17.com for information))
19/2/2000 Corrected All Spelling Mitsakes
Just updated a few links and spelling mistakes. Nobody has joined the mailing list yet, which would be depressing if it wasn't for the thought of having to sending things on the list when people did join it!
1/1/2000 New Site
Well, its the start of the last year of the decade, century and milleni…. mile… melly… minellium, so to celebrate, I've bought skilleter.org.uk as a present to myself, and why not!
New Car
Just got a new (well, newer) car, so decided that the most logical thing to do was to update the web site. I'm still trying to decide why that was logical, but it hasn't stopped me from doing it. Robert's in bed, so this update is all my own work. If nothing else, the speling should be right! For some reason that I'm blaming Microsloth for, the font's changed on all the new pages. When I get around to RTFM, I'll try and sort it out. In the meantime, I'm going to claim that it is an artistic effect, if anyone comments on it.
Just for the heck of it, I've created a mailing list for the site (why not join, below!) and with the help of a kind gentleman called Andrew Spaxman we have a wonderful advertising banner as well. At this rate, as soon as pay-per-view web sites are invented, I'll be able to retire – assuming that I can survive on £1.50 per decade that is!
Eureka, I've found the logical link between the new car and the web site. The first place that we went in it was to the National Railway Museum in York. We had a marvellous time; saw City Of Truro and the Flying Scotsman for the first time and had a look around the new building "The Works" which only opened a few days ago. If anyone from the museum is reading this, we can offer our congratulations on a museum that gets better and better every time that we visit.
24/6/99 Various Things
We've been travelling around the country a bit recently; we've been to the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry, Peak Rail in Matlock, Armley Mills in Leeds and we've paid a few more visits to the Keighley & Worth Valley line where we saw (but didn't manage to ride behind) the L.N.E.R. B1 and, just last weekend we saw the J27 from the N.Y.M.R. (and didn't manage to ride behind that either!).
We've put some more of Robert's photographs on the site this time – he's getting quite good now that he's using 35mm film instead of his little instamatic 'Thomas' camera. I suppose that Patrick is going to want to start taking pictures soon as well!

While driving down the Jersey shore when I was younger a jeep wrangler passed my family's Volvo. It had no top and no doors. The driver and the passenger were both bare foot and swinging their feet out the door well. This was the most insanely cool thing I have ever seen in my life thus far.
Since then dreams of racing down the highway with the wind blowing through my hair and toes, off to some exotic beach location have been with me. And when Kit and I were deciding what to do during a quick weekend vacation to Miami, I knew this was my chance to live out my dream.
We would drive down to Key West for the day. It's only 4 hours from Miami and it will be amazing in an open-air car.
Wait, how much is a jeep wrangler rental?
Hmm. How about a car with a sunroof?
Ok, so what do you got that's a cheap rental?
Ford Focus?
Not exactly what I pictured but screw it, it will do. We set out in the morning on an overcast day. The weather forecast said it should be a lot nicer down state. We were off. About 2 hours later we finally reached the long stretch of road through the Everglades. An hour after that, we finally saw the sun, it was a sight. I immediately rolled up my sleeves and hung my arm out the window. It's not my foot and I'm not in a convertible but I can adapt.
We reached Key West in about 4 and half hours, walked around, got the most ridiculous suntan and had a few beers on the street.
After a few hours of doing mostly nothing the weather started to turn and raindrops were interrupting our drinking. We headed back north on Highway 1 and by the time we hit Marathon Key the sky had opened up. Rain so thick you couldn't see the hood of your own car kind of rain. The kind of storm that movie studios film disaster movies in. I felt like a storm chaser from the movie twister. Kinda glad the jeep rentals were so damn expensive. We would have drowned in a convertible. We were safe and dry in our trusty ford focus.
Then Kit noticed that rainwater had flooded the road and was licking the side of the car. My entire life I had made fun of my mother's driving position. If you have a short mother then you know the position I'm talking about, seat pushed up almost into the engine compartment. Like if she could drive the car from on top of the dashboard while steering, seat pushed up. I don't think car manufactures make the seats go up that far, I think my mother had to special order it. Well, that's how I was driving. My knuckles were pure white, no music, no talking, windshield wipers going a mile a minute. On the surface I looked as cool as a cucumber, inside I was running around like a Muppet screaming with my arms flailing. I wanted to get home.
Almost 5 hours later we made it back to the main land and the weather had let up Little. We were tired and hungry. The sign for Denny's was like a beacon of light. It encompassed everything we needed at the time. Food, warmth and hope. It's funny how the first meal you have when coming back from the brink of death always tastes amazing. If there was a Denny's at base camp during a Mount Everest expedition, I bet more people would push for that summit knowing that there is breakfast goodness below.
I'm glad I did the drive, and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Key West is an amazing Island. The people, the views and the bars are what good stories are made of.

Topic created on: December 10, 2012 02:26 CST by codeinject .
Hello All,
I am currently developing a code emulator more for fun than for anything else. Using libemu as the core for this emulator.
The only thing that I really want to active to load an entire PE into memory and let it rip.
So, my TODO list had the following:
- Read the headers
- Check if the PE is Valid (x86 Platform)
- Extract the required data to setup the memory segments
- Hook all the imported functions to my custom API.
- Build the stack segment (set esp and ebp)
- Set the Eflags
- Set the EIP to work correctly
Currently my app does the following.
0005371D >/$ 8BFF mov edi, edi |<< Works
0005371F |. 55 push ebp |<< Works
00053720 |. 8BEC mov ebp, esp |<< Works
00053722 |. 83EC 10 sub esp, 10 |<< It dies.
Conclusion, I have not build the stack segment correctly.
My question is, how does Windows load an exe to build it's stack in the right manner. I am looking for a technical implemenation or document.
Now I've hard-coded the registers:
entry_point = pe->nt_header->AddressOfEntryPoint;
emu_cpu_eip_set(cpu, entry_point);
emu_cpu_reg32_set(cpu, eax, 0x00);
emu_cpu_reg32_set(cpu, ecx, 0x00);
emu_cpu_reg32_set(cpu, edx, entry_point);
emu_cpu_reg32_set(cpu, ebx, 0x00);
emu_cpu_reg32_set(cpu, esp, 0x0ff8c);
emu_cpu_reg32_set(cpu, ebp, 0x00); <--Wrong as I don't know where to get this. (PyEmu told me (0x0095f000 - 0x1000 / 2) but that seems random).
emu_cpu_reg32_set(cpu, esi, 0x00);
emu_cpu_reg32_set(cpu, edi, 0x00);
emu_cpu_eflags_set(cpu, 0x0000246);
Long story short: How to I get the correct values from the PE Header?
Thanks in advance
A day has passed.
I am still having issues these issues. And I've tested a number of binz.
I've noticed that every app dies at the same code.

Top ANC Leaders Oppose Zuma's Plan to Fire Gordhan
By Sam Mkokeli
Three of the top six officials of South Africa's ruling party told President Jacob Zuma that they opposed his plan to fire Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan, a person with knowledge of the matter said.
Zuma told the African National Congress leaders in a meeting on Monday that he wanted to dismiss Gordhan because he was aiming to undermine the president in meetings with investors while on a roadshow in the U.K. and U.S., the person with knowledge of what happened at the gathering said. Earlier that day, Zuma had ordered Gordhan to cancel the roadshow and return home from London, causing the rand to plummet.
The officials included Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa, Secretary-General Gwede Mantashe and Treasurer-General Zweli Mkhize, according to the person, who asked not to be identified because a public statement hasn't been made. The six officials agreed to meet again on April 3 to discuss the issue, according to the person.
If he fires Gordhan, Zuma risks a market meltdown and a revolt by opponents in the ruling party. If he doesn't, he may appear weak as he seeks to secure his choice as successor as party leader in December. Zuma told members of the group that Gordhan is divisive in the cabinet and thwarts efforts by other ministers to deliver services, according to the person.
"Zuma is still very hesitant whether he can remove the finance minister," Dirk Kotze, a politics professor at the University of South Africa in the capital, Pretoria, said by phone. "Once he kicks out Pravin Gordhan, there can be sympathy resignations and he doesn't know how to predict that. Will it be Ramaphosa plus six, seven, eight, nine other ministers?"
The rand reversed losses on Wednesday after the report on opposition to Gordhan's dismissal. The currency gained as much as 0.8 percent against the dollar after being 1.3 percent weaker before the report.
As president, Zuma has the right to fire and appoint ministers at any time and doesn't need the approval of the party's top six leaders, which include Chairwoman Baleka Mbete and Deputy Secretary-General Jessie Duarte. Bongani Ngqulunga, Zuma's spokesman, didn't answer calls to his mobile phone.
Zuma told the officials that he favored Brian Molefe, the former head of the state power company, as a replacement for Gordhan, according to the person. Molefe resigned from Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd. in November after being implicated in a graft ombudsman's report for favoring members of the Gupta family, who are in business with Zuma's son, in awarding contracts. Molefe denied wrongdoing and Zuma has challenged the findings of the Public Protector report.
Gordhan Feud
Zuma was pressured to appoint Gordhan in 2015 after a decision to name a little-known lawmaker to the position caused the rand and bonds to plunge. Since then, he's feuded with his minister over a planned nuclear power expansion and the management of state companies and the national tax agency.
According to the person, Zuma showed the leaders an intelligence report, seen by Bloomberg, stating that the Ministry of Finance and the National Treasury stand together against the president, and that Gordhan and his deputy, Mcebisi Jonas, had set up secret meetings to start what is called Operation Check Mate to undermine Zuma. Ramaphosa, Mantashe and Mkhize dismissed the findings and said they reserved the right to publicly oppose any decision to fire Gordhan, the person said.
Zuma's move to cut short the finance minister's roadshow is a concern for the country, Mkhize said at an event in Johannesburg Wednesday. The ruling party has a responsibility to ensure the nation's economy stability and growth, he said.
Treasury spokeswoman Yolisa Tyantsi didn't immediately respond to a phone call and text message seeking comment.
The South African Communist Party, which is an ally of the ANC and has criticized Zuma, will brief reporters in Johannesburg on Thursday morning.
"Gordhan is well-respected by virtually everyone bar the president and his supporters," said Ruth Bookbinder, an Africa analyst at Bath, England-based risk consulting firm Verisk Maplecroft. "The president is unable to sack Gordhan without risking his own position. The latest spat between the two men suggests that Zuma is trying to make Gordhan's position untenable. Unable to fire the minister, Zuma hopes to push Gordhan into resigning."

Shall not perish...Posted by Julo at 7:06 AM
Sitting on the sofa during family Bible time last night, asking questions from the Baptist Catechism from the Truth and Grace books by Founders Press, we asked our little P.T. (almost 4) to recite John 3:16:
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, that none should parachute..."

June 25, 2011
Before I began my Cal Energy Corps placement, I assumed that my internship at Academia Sinica in Taiwan would be similar to the my prior lab research experience at UC Berkeley where I had worked with a graduate student on his continuing research and had limited control of the experiments that we undertook. Here I have been very lucky that the Ph.D. candidate I work with just started a new project, so I have a chance to be involved in a new topic. We are mixing a commercially available membrane, Nafion, with other compounds to improve the performance of the membrane. Though the original idea is from the professor who supervises our work, the Ph.D. student and I work together to fill in the many details. This involves searching relevant academic papers, changing the parameters of our experiments, and interpreting results.
July 2, 2011
Our research has been progressing during the past month. Spectroscopy confirmed the identity of the graphene oxide we made, and we were successful in making hybrid membranes of Nafion and graphene oxide. We are now starting to measure the properties of the membranes such as proton conductivity, thickness, and methanol crossover in a DMFC.
In addition, I would like to briefly describe the meetings I attend here at Academia Sinica on a regular basis. The first one is a big group meeting for all team members. Usually three doctoral students and/or postdocs present from 6pm to 9pm on Thursdays. Those are opportunities to learn from each others' work. Sometimes, members give short introductions to the conferences they attend, so others can have chance to gain insight into presentations given at international seminars. Secondly, each subgroup has a biweekly group meeting during lunch time. For example, our energy group has a lunch meeting on every Tuesday, and these meetings provide a platform for master students to present their progress every two months. Thirdly, we have a small team meeting held by a senior researcher (he is already a professor) on Fridays. The meetings on Friday allow junior researchers to get feedback on their daily progress; and I have had opportunity to express my ideas during these meetings. Sometimes the master students treat us to lunch during the Friday meetings, and we enjoy our time socializing.

All used to seeing the wife of Hollywood actor George Clooney Amal in business suits, or elegantly structured dresses in which she appears on the red carpet.
But recently, the paparazzi managed to capture a woman during a walk, and Amal was unfamiliar to her. Woman wearing ripped jeans, black t-shirt and chunky ankle boots metallic color.
All elements of the outfit together looked very harmoniously and had to face Amal. Despite the fact that the image of the 39-year-old woman turned out to be quite daring, this is a great option of clothing for each day.

People usually use a ruler when they cut paper. They put pressure on the ruler
and then make a slice down the side of it.
However, the design below could do it more easily. The design I suggest will
incorporate a knife with a lever mechanism attached to the ruler, allowing the
user to set their desired cutting area according to their own preference.
Thus, making the operation is more exactly.

"We can tackle malnutrition head on"
Meet Madame Seck, a midwife and counsellor at the health centre in Matam, Senegal.
Sep 1 2017
This Autumn, join us as we help mums and mums-to-be to create healthier futures for themselves and their children. By supporting the Healthy Mums Healthy Kids appeal, you're helping them to stay healthy and give birth to healthy children. You're helping them learn how to provide the care and nutrition their children need. And you're helping children to grow up strong.
The UK Government will double all donations, so we can provide mums and children in Senegal with the nutrition and support they need to survive and thrive.
For Madame Seck, being a midwife is a calling. Together with other midwives in Matam, an arid region in north-eastern Senegal, she has dedicated her professional life to breaking the vicious intergenerational circle of life-threatening malnutrition.
"Early pregnancies are a challenge here in Matam," she says. "Many girls marry when they are still very young. Often, they drop out of school when they become pregnant. The younger a girl is when she becomes pregnant, the greater the risks to her and her baby's health. From April to June, 3 in 4 mums giving birth to low-weight children in Matam were under 24 years old. This is why adolescent girls need special care and support."
Madame Seck supports mums-to-be and young mothers during and after their pregnancies so that they and their children can be healthy. She advises them to see her for their monthly check-ups, provides them with advice on how to diversify their diets and encourages them to breastfeed exclusively. She also works closely with youth peer educators to inform teenagers about family planning and confidential services on nutrition and health.
"A few weeks ago, a 15-year-old girl came to see me. She was seven months pregnant. She did not know anything about birth control or reproductive health. She was not aware of the risks of getting pregnant and she told me that she was considering an abortion. She was scared of her parents' reaction. I persuaded her to keep the child and together we talked to her parents. The girl gave birth to a healthy baby. There is nothing more rewarding than being able to support a mum through pregnancy and see her deliver a healthy baby."
Madame Seck with mums at the health centre in Matam.
"We must work across the health, community and education sectors to provide information and support to adolescents so that they can learn about reproductive health and good nutrition. By empowering them to make their own decisions on when and how many children they have, and providing them with the information they need to look after themselves during pregnancy, we can tackle malnutrition head on."

Hello folks,
I know the majority of you have the V8 model but I was wondering if anyone out there knows what current draw I should see when the glow-plugs are active?
I am learning how to use my new tool but I appear to be drawing over 90 Amps when the glowplugs energize. Is this about right? The glowplugs are about 6 months old.


text: One thing I constantly find myself doing in my 7+ years of using SlickEdit is selecting word or phrase in the editor, copying it to the clipboard, then pasting that into a Web Browser search page (e.g. Google). It would be handy to add "Web Search" to the standard search options. For example, when you right click on a word, you get the popup to do a "Quick Search", "Quick Replace", etc. Adding "Web Search" would save me oodles of time. Also adding a Web Search feature to the "Find and Replace" dialog would be just as handy. In the "Look in:" pull down list, we have "Current Buffer", "All Buffers", "Project", "Workspace". Adding a "Web Search" option would be great.Thanks

As San Diego Comic-Con has grown exponentially year after year while remaining in the same physical space (the San Diego Convention Center), attendees have been growing more frustrated with the lengthy lines that are necessary to funnel people into the more popular panels. The Mount Everest of Comic-Con lines is undoubtedly Hall H, which is where the movie studios and television networks generally tout the biggest and the baddest of what they have to offer. This is where the first footage from Man of Steel debuted, where Batman vs. Superman was announced, and where Robert Downey Jr. walked through the aisles dancing and sporting an Iron Man arm.
Last year in Hall H, the line became nearly unbearable as more people started camping out, meaning if you wanted to get into Hall H for Saturday's slew of panels, you needed to be in line by Friday night at 10pm. This year, SDCC is aiming to alleviate at least some of that pressure by implementing a new program that will give attendees a better idea of their chances of getting in. More after the jump.
San Diego Comic-Con has announced that at the 2014 Con, they will be kicking off a new system for the initial morning Hall H line called Toucan Tracker. Once people start lining up to get into the next day's Hall H panels, wristbands will be distributed. The quantity of wristbands available will supposedly cap out at the Hall H maximum capacity, meaning that everyone who receives a wristband should, in theory, get into Hall H for that first morning panel.
Color markers will be distributed along the Hall H line route, which will apparently give those waiting in line an idea of their chances of getting into Hall H. If you're in line and don't have a wristband, you most likely won't get into that morning's initial panel, but you should (in theory) have an idea of how many guests will need to leave Hall H during the day in order for you to get in.
If you and your entire group are able to snag a wristband but leave the line, when you come get back in line you'll be asked to go to the end. However, as long as you have a wristband and someone from your group (who also has a wristband) has remained in line, you'll be able to join them if you have to leave for whatever reason.
There's sure to be some initial confusion, but hopefully this system allows people to better manage their time instead of spending the entire day waiting to get into Hall H, only to be told at the end of the day that you're not getting in. There are plenty of panels happening all over Comic-Con, so there's always an alternative.
Here's the official rundown on the Toucan Tracker from SDCC. Visit their site for more info:
Wristbands will be distributed for Hall H ONLY. These wristbands are not guaranteed entry passes. They will be used to gauge the length of the line for Hall H.
You must have a badge or badge barcode to be in line.
Wristband distribution will begin in Plaza Park as people get in line but will stop at approximately 1:00 AM, resuming again at 5:00 AM at the spot where the last wristband was given out.
You will need to have a wristband in order to enter Hall H for the first panel of the day only. If people with wristbands leave the line for the first panel of the day and more seating becomes available, the room will be filled with the first people in line who do not have wristbands.
These are not meant to be entry passes, but a marker for attendees in line. As always for Comic-Con International lines, if you need to leave the line for any reason, be sure a member of your group remains in line or you will lose your place in line.
Wristbands cannot be sold, saved, or traded.
After the first panel of the day loads, the wristbands will not be used and the line will proceed as normal.
The wristbands will be in four colors, each color denoting a section of the line. The first quarter of the room capacity will receive a certain color, the next quarter another color, and so on.

Missing Christmas? Here is a special memory we would like to share.
Christmas is such a magical and abundantly blessed time with all the expressions of love and gift giving. That is what makes the season magical…love. We all need love and are inherently seeking it but let me tell you, there is nothing comparable to the love of the Lord! Love from the world can be empty and deceiving, but love from the Lord and His family of children is pure and more valuable than gold. At Acacia Worship Center, we had a very special and intimate candle light service to celebrate the ultimate expression of love, when God sent his son Jesus into this world to save us from our sin. Love came down from heaven and changed this world forever…
The decor of our event included angels in the dining room announcing "Joy to the World, the Lord has come!" The living room was candle lit with a cross shaped banquet table, nativity scenes, and Jesus themed tree.
We all enjoyed a special message from Pastor Ron about the true meaning of Christmas and how to bask in the joy of the Lord through the holidays rather than feeling stressed and overwhelmed in the hustle and bustle of preparations.
The children enjoyed a candy land elf & toy themed workshop to make arts and crafts and play in an area made special just for them.
At AWC, we have a tradition of gathering all the children together to bake a special birthday cake for Jesus. We met the night before to bake the cake at Pastor Ron and Lisa's and just prior to our big party they all pitched in to decorate this masterpiece. After singing Happy Birthday to Jesus, the kids each read their birthday cards and we all celebrated with well wishes and apple cider toasts!
The evening concludes with good food, games, funny stories, and lots of laughs! Thanks for sharing in this wonderful Christmas experience with us and stay tuned for another special holiday memory as we ring in the New Year, Nepali style! We celebrated the New Year sharing food, photos, videos, and stories from our recent Love Beyond Borders mission trip to Nepal. It is amazing to see the results of what God was able to accomplish there through all of our donations and we are excited to share this celebration with you all!
