Description, Abstract, or Artist's Statement
Philosophers of all ages and locales have ruminated on what it means to live a meaningful life. This particular essay seeks to tackle the same question but with more particularity. Is a meaningful life ethically good, rational, or even successful? Susan Wolf's work The Meanings of Lives gives a nuanced but affirmative answer. This essay counters Wolf's answer to that question. Although Wolf's notion of having a project does make for a meaningful life, this paper argues that her objective and subjective criteria are too restricting. What makes life meaningful is not the outcome or nature of the project, but rather that one feels "called" to a particular project and takes an active interest in it, even if the project seems absurd or futile. In order to support that claim, this essay forwards Kierkegaard's Fear and Trembling, as well as other critical appraisals of both Wolf and Kierkegaard.

The story of Ireland in the Middle Ages is both more complicated and more tragic than any simple 'natives against imperialists' story could possibly suggest. Simon Schama unravels the story of who did what to whom, and why.
The devastating wars of the British nations, which had seen Edward I invade Wales and then Scotland in the 13th century, left Ireland largely unaffected.
However, Edward, the Caesar of Britain, had inherited the English Crown's claim to be Lord of Ireland, along with the rest of his estates. Irish gold contributed to his campaigns in Wales, 3,000 Irish men invaded Scotland with him, and while Irish grain fed his war machine, Edward never visited the island himself; indeed no English king did so between John and Richard II.
Significantly, and for the first time, the grant of Ireland to Edward: 'provided that the land of Ireland shall never be separated from the crown of England...', and so left it forever a part of the Plantagenet estate.
Anglo-Norman lords had settled in Ireland in the 12th century and never left. Its landscape now featured Norman castles and abbeys, just like the British mainland.
With the king of England so distracted at home, it came as no surprise that many English lords equally stayed away from their Irish estates, allowing the gradual reassertion of influence by the native Irish princes and kings. It was into the middle of this vacuum that Robert the Bruce dispatched his ambitious brother, Edward, in 1315.
For all the devastating completeness of the Scots victory at Bannockburn in 1314, Robert I, King of Scotland, knew that it was only a battle that he had won there, certainly not the whole war.
A year later, his claim to the crown of Scotland had still not been recognised by Edward II, King of England. Bruce and the Scottish nation also knew there was always the possibility that before long another great army of English knights and Welsh archers would come lumbering up over the Tweed.
...Ireland shall never be separated from the crown of England...
All his instincts - strategically sharp as always - told Bruce he needed to hit the English while they were still on the floor, and hit them where it hurt. The war was taken over the border into Northumbria, now subjected to raids of unsparing ferocity. For over 20 years the Scots held the initiative in northern England, terrorising the population and carrying off their goods.
And then in May 1315, Bruce did something much, much, bolder. His brother, Edward, landed a formidable Scottish army, at least 5,000 strong, near Carrickfergus in the north-east of Ireland. In effect, this opened a second front in the war against the English empire.
Robert had smoothed his brother's way by writing a remarkable letter to: 'all the kings of Ireland, the prelates and clergy and to the inhabitants of all Ireland, our friends'.
The Scots would come, he said, not as invaders but as liberators, for: 'our people and your people, free in times past, share the same national ancestry and are urged to come together more eagerly and joyfully in friendship by a common language and common custom'.
What he was proposing was a Gaelic alliance, across the Irish Sea, 'so that God willing, nostra natio - our nation - may be restored to her former liberty'.
How, and when, had their liberty been taken from the Irish?
The 'when' is easy enough to pinpoint - the fateful decade when an Anglo-Norman colony of barons established itself in northern and eastern Ireland; and the fateful year, 1171, when the kings of Ireland had knelt before Henry II, in a specially built palace made of wattle, and had submitted to him as their overlord and High King.
So you would suppose that the 'how' is also a story of depressing simplicity. The aggressive, expansionist English - under the king most famous for gobbling up duchies and kingdoms - take a look out west, see something they fancy, push their horses onto ships, bludgeon their way into the land they want with blood and fire, and force themselves on the peaceful natives as conquerors. Then they sit there for the next 800 years, daring the conquered people to do something about it.
But that's not what happened. What did happen is ugly enough - and reflects no credit on the English intruders - but it was, as history often is - both more complicated and more tragic, than any simple 'natives against imperialists' story could possibly suggest.
Awful the deed done in Ireland today...
Just as in Scotland a century later, the trouble with the English began with a civil war among the natives. In 1166, the King of Leinster, Diarmait MacMurchada was forced to flee from Dublin and from his kingdom by an alliance of Irish enemies, including the new High King, Ruaidri Ua Conchobair. 'Awful the deed done in Ireland today', wrote the chronicler of Leinster, 'the expulsion overseas by the men of Ireland of Diarmait...'.
And awful were its consequences. For Diarmait landed in Bristol and asked for help from King Henry II to get his throne back. Now what happens when you ask the Godfather for a favour? He expects something, some day, in return. And, as the Song of Dermot made clear, from the beginning that something was:
To you I come to make my plaint, good sire In the presence of the barons of your empire. Your liege-man I shall become henceforth all the days of my life, On condition you be my helper so that I do not lose at all You I shall acknowledge as sire and lord...
Then the King promised him, the powerful king of England That willingly would he help him as soon as he should be able.
But these were the years of Henry's great crises: the feud with Becket and the church - and the coming wars with his son, the future Richard I. In 1155, the Pope had asked Henry to invade Ireland to clean up what was reported to be a corrupt and lax Christianity.
But then, as now, Henry had more urgent things to do than get directly involved in an obscure island west of England's shores. On the other hand, Diarmait's appeal had presented him with a windfall too good to turn down. So he gave Diarmait permission to recruit help from among his barons.
This is when the trouble became big trouble. For Diarmait promptly went shopping for mercenaries among the nastiest and greediest possible bunch of knights. These were the Anglo-Normans who, around the 1160s, seemed to be on the losing end of the war against the Welsh princes of Gwynedd.
They had lost castles, land and peasants. They were in an ugly mood and they were looking for somewhere to recoup their losses. Enter Diarmait.
Spread the word, the likes of Robert fitzStephen and Richard fitzGilbert de Clare (known to his friends, and especially to his many enemies, as 'Strongbow') must have said: 'Forget about Wales; forget about those unpleasantnesses in the mountains and valleys. Come west young knights. Ireland will be a piece of cake. It's said that the natives are primitive. But the pastures are green. So what are you waiting for?'.
Within a year Diarmait had his throne back in Dublin. But he also now had an army of Anglo-Normans who weren't about to go away now that the job was done. In fact, from the beginning, Diarmait had known this. He not only expected but wanted the likes of Strongbow to stick around, lest his old enemies get ideas of booting him out again.
Robert fitzStephen was quite right when he told his followers that Diarmait 'loves our race; he is encouraging our race to come here and has decided to settle them in this island and give them permanent roots...'. And Diarmait even went to the trouble of marrying his daughter to Strongbow to make sure that the alliance had staying power.
Their agreement spelled out that if none of Diarmait's sons survived (and one had been blinded, another been taken hostage, another was illegitimate), then Strongbow could even inherit the throne of Leinster himself!
The Irish kings did homage to Henry as they would to any High King...
At which point Henry II suddenly sat up and took notice of what was going on in the west. He had meant to use Diarmait's appeal to get a foothold in Ireland.
What he had inadvertently created was a monster: a colony of Anglo-Normans, who answered to exactly the kind of jumped-up superbaron Henry was busy sitting on in every other part of his enormous empire.
So in the winter of 1171, Henry crossed the Irish Sea himself, coming with an army big enough to give the likes of Strongbow serious second thoughts. It was then, in the wattle palace of Dublin, that he took the homage of all the six Irish kings, including Ruadrai Ua Conchobair.
And though everything that happened afterwards in the sad history of England and Ireland wants to say this was the moment when Ireland lost her freedom, no one at the time saw it that way at all.
The Irish kings did homage to Henry as they would to any High King, building the ritual hall through which they entered as his men, promising him one of every ten of their cattle hides in tribute.
And they saw him not as imperial conqueror at all, but as their protector against the Strongbows and the Anglo-Norman barons.
At the Treaty of Windsor in 1175, Henry in his turn made it clear that he also thought of himself as protector rather than conqueror, since he restored Ruadrai to his kingship of Connacht and to all the rights and honours he had had from other Irish lords before the coming of the English.
It wasn't Henry II's presence in Ireland that lost them their freedom, then, but his absence. With Henry in France, fighting off his children, his wife and the King of France, the Anglo-Norman barons had absolutely no intention of making his Irish settlement, with its careful attention to the claims of native Irish rulers, work.
What they wanted was a colony; the nice, obedient, feudal territory they had lost over in Wales, transplanted to Ulster and the east coast. And the first thing they did to make sure they got it, was to do what barons do best - build a castle that said - unmistakably - 'We're in charge'.
It was a true colony, a completely imported world: craftsmen, artisans, peasant settlers, ironware - all brought across the Irish Sea.
At first the castles were a primitive throwback to Norman history - just a heaped up earth motte with an encircling wooden 'bailey' wall. But it was enough to do the job of dominating the countryside against Irish attacks.
In due course came the much more formidable stone buildings, such as Carrickfergus Castle, which entrenched their power in Ulster beyond any possibility of eviction.
And from these power-bases, something utterly new was created in Ireland: feudalism. Within two or three generations, northern and eastern Ireland had been totally transformed, from a country living off herding and horses, and ruled by clans, to a place of manors.
The land taken - and taken is the word - by the Anglo-Normans, was divided up in the usual way and given to their knights, as reward for military service.
But somehow - and does this sound familiar everyone? - they weren't quite English either. Almost from the beginning they knew this, since one of the Anglo-Normans, Maurice fitzGerald, rather pathetically complained that no one would help his kind: 'for just as we are English as far as the Irish are concerned, likewise to the English we are Irish and the inhabitants of this island and of the other assail us with an equal degree of hatred'.
By the time that Edward Bruce arrived in 1315, there was an entrenched English colony in eastern Ireland. But the native Irish kings and much of their way of life had managed to hold on in the centre and west of the country - taking advantage of the chaos of English politics in the middle of the 12th century.
So there was reason for the Bruces to hope that their clarion call to revolt would be heard loud and clear, and that oppressed Ireland would rush to their banner to evict the imperial conquerors, much as they had done in Scotland.
Together the Gaelic brothers would rid Caledonia and Hibernia of the English scourge. And the two Bruces - Robert in Edinburgh and a King Edward in Dublin would rule the Irish Sea.
This is not what happened. And perhaps it served them right. For all their ringing national rhetoric, some of it undoubtedly sincere, Robert and Edward Bruce were transparently using Ireland to force the English to divert resources away from Scotland to this second front, and to make them accept their claim to the crown in Scotland.
That, in the end, they didn't give two hoots about Ireland was obvious when, in return for the English government (now in the hands of Queen Isabella and the Lord Mortimer) recognising the independence of Scotland, King Robert promised that he would never aid any rebellion against the English in Ireland. So much for the Gaelic brotherhood of nations!
Together the Gaelic brothers would rid Caledonia and Hibernia of the English scourge.
And perhaps you could have forecast this from what actually happened once Edward Bruce's campaign got under way. For it proceeded with the usual indiscriminate slaughters and burnings - without making any nice distinctions between Gaelic friends and English foes.
Perhaps things might have been different had not the years of the Scottish campaigns also been those of the worst famine in medieval history; so that there was nothing for the Scots soldiers to eat unless they took from the Irish. Which they did.
And even then they were reduced to such desperate straits, that it was said by one chronicler that the Scots soldiers dug up freshly made graves to eat the corpses. It was the usual story: a victory over the Ulster English; then a march down towards Dublin.
There the inhabitants tore down churches to use the stones to reinforce their walls. So they evidently were far from seeing the Scots as liberators. The city was never taken.
Then at an immense and bloody battle between opposed Irish camps in the west, where 10,000 men were said to have lost their lives, the pro-Scots side came off worst. In 1318 Edward Bruce was himself was killed in battle at Fochart, and by the end of the year the Scots were gone.
As grim as the story was, the Scots in Ireland had left something behind apart from widows and tragic ballads. The Anglo-Norman colony stopped expanding out from Ulster and Leinster. And just as in Scotland, the idea of the unstoppable English Empire of the Plantagenets had had the shine knocked off its myth of invincibility.
And, not least, the Bruces had given Irish leaders such as Domnal O'Neill, Edward's main ally, their voice of resistance. They wrote a 'Remonstrance of the Irish Princes' to the Pope, justifying the bestowing on Edward of the crown of Ireland.
To, 'shake off the harsh and insupportable yoke of servitude and to recover our native freedom...', the Irish princes were, '... compelled to enter a deadly war ... preferring under the compulsion of necessity to face the dangers of war like men in defence of our right, than go on bearing their cruel outrages like women...'.
In this you hear a language - eloquent, fierce, righteously belligerent - and you hear a voice which, for better or worse, would shout, roar and lament, down through the centuries.
...the Bruces had given Irish leaders like Domnal O'Neill, Edward's main ally, their voice of resistance.
This was 1317. Three years later - a case perhaps of the Irish teaching the Scots rather than the other way about - something remarkably like it was spelled out at Arbroath, once again in a letter to the Pope.
And so the wars of Britain had once again spilled into Ireland, with bloody consequences. The English estates remained, subdued to a degree but it would be over half a century before another English king set foot in Ireland to restore the crown's authority.
It was Richard II who turned Ireland into his personal crusade, only this time it was to cost the English king his throne - and his life.

{it's not really this green…cause whoa!}
I wonder perhaps it wasn't so much the pregnancy sickness kicking my quickly expanding booty over the last few months as it was the dreary weather. On days when it is cold and snowy and grey I simply can't seem to get out of my funk and taking the Boss anywhere seems an insurmountable task. But then the sun comes out, and this Los Angeles transplant suddenly bursts back into life! I go to the playground! I paint! I refinish furniture again! I….I am ME suddenly. And the Boss? Well, he is thrilled! There is a big boy swing in the back yard now and we swing for hours no matter how muddy it makes our shoes. We take his 'motorcycle' around the neighborhood and even for the two mile walk around the lake. Oh yes, I paid for that one, but it was glorious! TOTT and I laughing and talking about the future, pausing every three seconds to answer the incessant question from the Boss "are we going to the playground?" With "Yes Precious we are!"
I think the sun has kicked the nesting instinct in big time! this is problematic, as you know we live with my in-laws and I am certain that they would be less than pleased to arrive home from work and find all of their wallpaper taken down and the walls painted and the furniture re-arranged. I have to stop myself from rearranging everything in sight and paint, paint, painting! But that nesting bee kept buzzing in my bonnet until I simply decided that The Boss' room…well that was mine to do. I moved furniture around, I rearranged toys, I made a list of must haves for the new room. I ordered a quilt for his big boy bed and have plans for bedding for the crib that will eventually be Baby 2's once the Boss moves to the bed. I finally painted one of the two headboards I got at the thrift store for 7 bucks. 7 bucks for 2 headboards, you can't beat that! I love 1/2 price day.
I dragged the Boss to Goodwill and oh! he took off like a shot for, guess what? a little chair! Like mother, like son. He instantly declared MINE! And I said oh heck yes! It wasn't marked and needed to be glued so it was offered to me for 4.99. Little chair number 1 of my collection~ DONE! A quick glue, wood fill and sand, a little paint, and the Boss is in love with his new thrown. I can't wait to get the room all together and just the way I want it.
And then move on to something else…it's never done, right?

Warped refers to the twisted beings first encountered in the second part of The Banner Saga. Initially only Dredge are shown as becoming warped, but it is later revealed that all races can be twisted into the Warped by the Darkness. The Warped units include:
- Warped Stoneguard
- Warped Scourge
- Warped Grunt
- Warped Slinger
- Warped Stonesinger
- Warped Spearman
- Warped Axeman
- Warped Shieldbanger
- Warped Warrior
- Warped Archer
- Warped Horseborn
- Warped Bear
- Vicious Warped Bear
- Alert Warped Slinger
- Cruel Warped
- Lumbering Warped
- Marauding Warped
- Unrelenting Warped
- Bumbling Warped
- Warped Borur
- Hardened Warped
- Grasping Warped
- Writhing Warped
In addition, you can also encounter a Warped Eyeless as a boss in Chapter 21.
Bolverk despite never being twisted into a Warped by the Darkness, is able to lead them in order to take down Iver, Juno, Eyvind and the Ravens. This is probably because he was revived and already corrupted by the Serpent of whom the Darkness is an aspect of which he has lost control over.

Is there an image duplicate finder program that works on Windows or Linux that can search a folder to find duplicates and near duplicates (different resolutions, compression modes, etc) in the WebP image format? I don't care if the program is freeware or costware. I want something just like the program VisiPics, which searches a batch of images for images that are the same picture. Visipics can even find duplicated images that have different dimensions. But Visipics doesn't work with the WebP image format. It's easy to find image duplicate finders, but I haven't been able to find one that works with WebP image files.

@Kodiologist That answer doesn't address my needs. WebP isn't even mentioned in that answer, so I don't know why you think it would apply to this question. – whitewings May 21 '17 at 6:42
@Izzy I just updated the question. – whitewings May 21 '17 at 6:43
1"WebP isn't even mentioned in that answer" — That doesn't mean it doesn't work with WebP. In particular, as @Izzy says, a program doesn't need to know anything about file fomats in order to find bit-for-bit identical files. – Kodiologist May 21 '17 at 14:19
1@Kodiologist converting them all to find the dupes is not a recommended approach, as it first creates even more dupes :) But OP has a point if the tool should also find the same picture in (slightly) different resolutions or compression modes, keeping the best one (aka "master") only – which seems kind of what VisiPics offers. If that's a requirement we can of course only tell if OP lets us know :) – Izzy♦ May 21 '17 at 16:14

Mix-Breed is the 225th chapter of Akira Amano's Katekyo Hitman Reborn!.
Synopsis[edit | edit source]
It is revealed that Xanxus was actually being shielded by his Leone di Cieli Box Weapon, Bester. Olgert wonders why his Elefante Forte Pioggia was breaking apart after it was already petrified. Rasiel says it doesn't matter, and Olgert proceeds with his Doppio Martello. Bester uses his Ruggito di Cieli and petrifies the elephants. Xanxus ignites his Flame of Wrath but he and Bester are suddenly injured by the Onde Super Fiamma. The petrification is undone and the elephants proceed. Bester uses his Ruggito di Cieli again, but this time it blows up the two elephants. Xanxus' old scars from Vongola Nono reappear and he tells them that Bester is not a Tigre Tempesta nor a Leone di Cieli, but instead a Ligre Tempesta di Cieli: Sky/Storm Liger!

Using GWP to increase brand awareness is a great advertising strategy to capture customer attention and boost brand recall. It is particularly efficient if you combine it with licensed characters that people know and recognize.
The famous soda brand 7up has well understood it and they decided to offer their customer these amazing Marvel's Avengers figurines (1:6) as GWP through Circle K shops in Hong-Kong. Circle K is a chain of convenience stores all across Hong Kong.
It is very simple to get your hands on these figurines – just spend more than 15 HKD on 7up products and send a SMS to 6622 2962 and you will be able to receive the figurine.
Using licensed characters in your GWP Promotion
We really love the use of licensed characters in this promotion: it is a great way for brands to promote themselves. If your brand is not sufficiently recognized on its own or you simply want to make it more attractive to customers, think of combining it with famous or upcoming licensed characters. Your company will surely benefit from the use of these popular characters.
In order to do so, your company will simply need to buy the right to use the characters for your GWP. It is an important decision to make on which licensed characters should be selected, thus ODM can help you to analyze your promotional needs and aid you in this decision. Contact ODM staff if you have any inquiries or check out these related blogs:

Is It Fair to Compare
by Rocky Barker
River ecologists nationally issued a paper this spring decrying the lack of data to compare river restoration projects. Each waterway and dam is unique. River systems are complex.
However, rivers have proved to be far more resilient when a dam is removed or pollution stopped. The Edwards experience follows the success of many other dam removals including the Sunbeam Dam in the 1930s on the Salmon River and the Lewiston Dam on the Clearwater River in the 1970s.
The Edwards Dam was a 917-foot-wide, 25-foot-high concrete and timber dam, comparable in size to the Swan Falls Dam, which is 30 miles from Boise on the Snake River. Swan Falls Dam is 24 feet high and 1,187 feet wide. Edwards only produced 3.5 megawatts of electricity and served no other purpose.
The four lower Snake dams are three times as large, and produce nearly 1,000 times the electricity as Edwards. They provide a link by barge to the Pacific Ocean with Lewiston.
Removing the Edwards dam cost Edwards Manufacturing $2.5 million in lost annual revenues and the city of Augusta lost electricity sales. By comparison, the Corps of Engineers four lower Snake dams in Washington generate $250 million in revenues annually for the Bonneville Power Administration.

People looking for a healthcare plan in California may just be better equipped in their search from now on: the California Department of Insurance has just launched a new tool to assist all users with health insurance comparison. Basically, whenever you are shopping for a new insurance plan (or looking for a more convenient coverage plan than the one you already have), you can use the California Healthcare Compare tool to have all the facts laid out before you. This is a great piece of news for all the people who like to be thorough when shopping for health insurance, and previously needed to actually calculate and map out all the figures themselves until now.
How Does the Healthcare Compare Tool Work?
The health insurance comparison tool was designed by the California Department of Insurance following the success of the similar health care tool previously launched for smaller niches of healthcare costs. While tools and apps such as #PriceCheck, for example, were initially designed to allow people get a better estimate on how much an event like childbirth could cost them, by crowdsourcing facts and figures from other people's experiences, the new California health insurance tool will help draft a direct comparison between plans. This will allow a much better overview of how much they could be expected to pay for the actual insurance, as well as estimating any eventual out of pocket costs much more accurately.
We all know that all the details contained by the average health insurance plan can be quite complex, no matter how simply they are presented in the initial package and overview on the insurance company's website. This is why an actually accurate comparison between two plans is hard to sketch from the first sight, and even though you think you more or less got the picture, the actual bills may end up looking a lot different than what you initially had in mind.
Discussing this new California Healthcare Compare tool, the state Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones addressed this problem as well, saying that many people face higher deductibles and out of pocket costs when using their health insurance plans. This is why the new tool is a more than welcome addition to the way we inform ourselves about our options before actually opting for one health insurance plan or another.
To use the Healthcare Compare tool, just go to the California Healthcare Compare portal (currently hosted by Consumer Reports). Then, just enter as much data as you have about your current or previous plans, your usual doctor(s) and hospital, and let the application do the researching work for you. For any technical issues, the portal will also offer you a comprehensive list of Frequently Asked Questions and their answers, so don't worry about getting the tool to work right for your particular health insurance comparison.
How Can a Health Care Tool Improve Medical Insurance
If a significant percentage of people struggling with finding an appropriate health insurance coverage would actually start using this new tool, then it could definitely be said that the health care tool is a success. Not only it would help more people find the affordable health insurance they really need, but it would also make the job a lot easier for people already satisfied with their coverage plans, but who still need to properly assess how much they would be billed in out-of-pocket costs in the event of an out of the ordinary medical situation. For all these issues and more, the new California Healthcare Compare portal should be the ideal answer. But, as is the case will all useful portals and tools, their actual impact on the domain they were designed for (in this case, the healthcare insurance market) depends on how many users gain access and effectively start using it.

Children's Clothes
Children's clothes are often expensive, and children may wear them for only a short time because they are growing. A cheaper way to get children's clothes is to buy used or secondhand clothes. There are several used clothing stores in Lawrence.
Another way to buy children's clothes is at garage or yard sales. These are sales people have at their homes. These sales are common on weekends during the spring, summer, and fall. They are usually listed in the classified advertisements at the end of the newspapers. You may also see signs for these sales along the streets in Lawrence. Children's clothes often sell very quickly at garage and yard sales, so you need to go early.

Old Town San Diego State Historic Park
Old Town San Diego State Historic Park presents the opportunity to experience the history of early San Diego by providing a connection to the past. Learn about life in the Mexican and early American periods of 1821 to 1872. Even today, life moves more slowly in this part of San Diego, where the hustle and bustle is balanced with history and fiestas. Visitors are offered a glimpse into yesteryear, as converging cultures transformed San Diego from a Mexican pueblo to an American settlement. The park eventually gained statehood in the United States after the Mexican-American War.
Harper's Topiary Garden
Known as Harper's Topiary Garden, this labour of love is the work of Mission Hills residents Edna and Alex Harper. The garden was started over 15 years ago when the formerly basic garden began to transform after the Harpers were inspired by gardens they saw on their travels. The collection includes a surfer, elephants ridden by monkeys, a rooster, a Buddha, pyramids, a whale, and more. The Harpers do all of the shaping, with the assistance of their gardener, and Edna supposedly spends hours each day tending to the sculptures. And it is free to enjoy.
Scripps Coastal Reserve
Scripps Coastal Reserve occupies nearly one thousand acres in La Jolla, California, ranging across a complex landscape including mesa top, coastal canyon and bluff, sandy beach, rocky intertidal, submerged coastal plain and deep submarine canyon.

French climb Civetta's Colonne d'Ercole onsight in Dolomites
Symon Welfringer reports about his repeat, with fellow French alpinists Antonin Cechini and Aurélien Vaissière, of Colonne d'Ercole up the NW Face of Civetta in the Dolomites. The 1200m route up Punta Tissi was first ascended by Alessandro Baù, Alessandro Beber and Nicola Tondini with difficulties up to IX and it is believed that this is the first onsight ascent.
During a brief visit to the Dolomites French climbers Symon Welfringer, Antonin Cechini and Aurélien Vaissière repeated Colonne d'Ercole on the NW Face of Civetta in the Dolomites. Established between 2009 and 2012 by Alessandro Baù, Alessandro Beber and Nicola Tondini with difficulties up to IX, this 1200-meter route to the top of Punta Tissi was repeated in 2014 by Alex Walpoth and Martin Dejori, who had to abandon the dream of climbing it onsight when holds broke. The French ascent is likely to be the first on-sight therefore.
Le Colonne d'Ercole in Civetta by Symon Welfringer
From the 16th to 18th of August Antonin Cechini, Aurélien Vaissière and I repeated the masterpiece Colonne d'Ercole, an awesome multipitch climb that leads to the summit of Punta Tissi on Civetta in the Dolomites.
This big wall extends for circa 1200m up the face and in order to climb it we made two bivouacs. This proved an awesome strategy as the bivys at the 10th and 23rd belays were really comfortable, and also because it gave us the time we needed to send the route properly. What was so amazing is that I managed to onsight all the 29 pitches, leading all the most difficult.
Having climbed the route, I'd say that many pitches offer excellent rock quality but as is usual on traditional routes on limestone, there are some long runouts above pitons. The crux 7c pitch in particular is a stern psychological test, as you have to do a hard boulder move high above some dubious pegs.
In a nutshell, this route provided us with all we'd searched for when we drove across from France to the Dolomites. Huge commitment on every pitch, that requires constant, full focus. We didn't find some belays as some pegs had probably disappeared, and some some belays weren't safe enough to haul the bags. All this made for some spicy climbing to reach the top of this awesome Civetta route.

Shareholder activism is on the rise and Asia is emerging as a growing focus.

Derek Cohen (in Perth, Australia)
Well Bill, I wasn't trying to compare the bombe with a bow front directly, other than to use it as an illustration that not all curved drawer fronts are veneered.
As I mentioned previously, I recognise that a veneered front is probably the first choice for many. In my case, with 24 small drawers, it just seemed a lot more work.

- History
History class is one of the subjects of a core curriculum known as, social studies. History class is a vital education that opens the world's past cultures and knowledge to students around the world.
Although still considered to be a core class of study, history class is often overlooked and viewed as the lesser of its core curriculum counterparts. However, while it is easy to overlook history's role of importance or involvement in our live's, this does not suggest that history, is in fact, insignificant.
While the every day use of mathematical and english tools are apparent, history is what gives a person perspective, appreciation, and caution for their live's current place in human existence.

Product Description
"In Australia, with such a high proportion of survivors, Holocaust literature has led to the publication of a number of highly significant works of memory. Among them is Ruth Rack's book, which will be certain to gain a special place.
You have to read the book to get inside the head and heart of a Jewish child facing the monstrously unfair circumstances that led her parents to determine to save her life by sending her to England. She never saw her parents again, but the wartime English chapter of her life, with strange people in strange places and with strange attitudes, is in itself an expression of the constant capacity to learn and to adapt whilst often weeping and wondering.
The book also tells the story of the author's adult life after she met Peter, her husband, and the past years of her life in Sydney.
If there is a deeper message in this book, and I believe there is, it is that the human spirit must never be allowed to be extinguished. As Ruth Rack says, "I thank God for the gift of each new day.""

Dust off the employee feedback surveys you've had stacked on your desk for months – it's time to put them to use. Information gathered from employee feedback can make connecting with and recruiting the talent you need easier.
Out of 300 organizations considered some of the best places to work, 95 percent of engaged companies use annual engagement surveys, according to the State of Employee Engagement survey done by my company, Quantum Workplace. Not only does implementing these surveys engage current employees, but also the feedback garnered can help enhance recruitment efforts.
Here's how you can use employee feedback to better recruit today's top talent:
1. Crafting a Caring Work Environment
Job seekers want to know the workplace will be one they can thrive in, not one that's hostile or overly competitive. Normally, this type of information is unknown until an employee is hired and working with a company.
In 2015, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) surveyed 600 U.S. employees and found that 67 percent of respondents said respectful treatment of employees on all levels was very important to their job satisfaction. In fact, respectful treatment was cited as very important to job satisfaction by more employees than compensation was.
And yet, only 31 percent of employees said they were satisfied with the level of respectful treatment at their current employer.
You can use the feedback you have from employees to demonstrate to job seekers that you have the kind of caring work environment they are looking for. If employees expressed on your last survey how impressed they are with the support they get from management and coworkers, mention this in your job posts or on your company career page.
2. Flaunt Your Great Coworkers
Let's face it: We spend more time with our coworkers than we do with our own families. In Virgin Pulse's 2015 survey of 1,000 full-time employees, 55 percent said their coworkers positively impact their stress levels at work.
Candidates can get some much needed insights into your company culture during the hiring process if they can see what their coworkers will be like before they accept the job.
We all want to be on a successful team, which is why you need to let candidates know you have such a team before they join. Sharing employee feedback about coworker relationships gives job seekers a glance at how well the team works together and if they'll be supported and encouraged.
Directly quote employees on your company career page and on social media to give candidates a firsthand look at what it's like to work at your organization. After all, who better to hear from than the employees themselves?
3. Advertise the Quality of Management
Management styles can make or break how employees feel about their jobs. In the previously cited SHRM survey, 53 percent of employees said their relationship with their immediate supervisor was very important to their job satisfaction, yet only 40 percent of employees were satisfied with their current relationships.
If your employees are giving positive feedback about management, sharing that with job seekers will set you apart from other companies. Include this feedback on job posts and the company career page in order to give job seekers confidence that they will receive the support they need to succeed in a new position.
4. Prove Employees' Voices Matter
Most employees don't provide feedback without first being prompted. It's nearly impossible to show that employees' voice matters unless you specifically ask for their feedback. In the SHRM survey, 49 percent of employees said the organization's respect for their ideas was important to job satisfaction. Forty-eight percent said communication between employees and senior leadership was important.
Using employee feedback is beneficial to your recruitment efforts and lets your current employees know their opinions matter to the leaders of the company. Furthermore, sharing employee feedback beyond the company shows employees that they're impacting the future growth of their organization.
Job seekers know your company can say anything to persuade them to apply for your open position, but employee feedback proves to job seekers that you're truly interested in your workforce's opinions. To give job seekers the deep look into your company that they want, share your current employees' positive experiences on social media or your company's blog.
What employee feedback do you think is beneficial in attracting job seekers? Let us know in the comments!

Apparently the studios did a press conference of some sort, judging from the interviews popping up here and there.
First, there's a great print interview with Rachel Luttrell:
Slice of SciFi Interview with Rachel Luttrell
Posted by Sam on Sunday, 6 Jul 2008
In April 2007 we were privileged to have "Stargate: Atlantis" star Rachel Luttrell as our special guest for the online and XM-Satellite Radio Slice of SciFi Show. We had such a good time that we asked Rachel if she would come back to Slice of SciFi sometime in the future.
Since that time Rachel has given birth to a beautiful son; while on the show, her character Teyla also gave birth.
With Season Five getting ready to return this Friday (July 11) we asked our roving reporter, Linda Craddock, to visit with Rachel while she was on the set of 'Atlantis' in Vancouver. What resulted was this great fun interview.
REST AT LINK ABOVE, and Paul McGillion, too! Mini-transcript beneath the cut.
Slice of SciFi Interview With Paul McGillion
Posted by Sam on Monday, 7 Jul 2008
Linda Craddock, our Slice of SciFi roving reporter, was able to get a few minutes with the very busy and always fun guy, Paul McGillion and talk with him about his return to "Stargate: Atlantis" as every fan's favorite character Dr. Carson Beckett once season five premieres this Friday, July 11 on the SCI FI Channel.
Paul was also able to tell us a little (a very, very little) about his role in the upcoming J.J. Abrams Star Trek film due out this coming May 2009.
Sit back and enjoy this exciting conversation with one of our favorite actors, Paul McGillion.
[NOTE: This interview can only be downloaded for listening from the SoSF Website]
Here are some tidbits from this interview, which lasted approximately 10 minutes. There were some tiny spoilers on "Whispers," which I left out.
Paul explains that he's back for at least five episode (#2 – The Seed) and is shooting his third episode of the five right now. "The Seed" is the 'dethawing of Beckett." The second episode is "Whispers," a horror episode. "Basically Sheppard and Beckett and a female SG-1 team the whole episode…" McKay is in it briefly. He's shooting "The Outsiders" (all three have been directed by Will Waring). It's a heavy McKay-Beckett episode. He thinks the fans will enjoy the way Beckett comes back.
Mallozzi called Paul back to explain the storyline to bring back Beckett and was "very keen" on it and it was open to come back more.
Will there be any dark behavior on Beckett's part due to Michael's influence?
"It's good ole Beckett that's back," said Paul.
Any idea of what is in store for Beckett in the second half of season 5?
He doesn't know. Hiatus starts in two days. He hopes he'll be in the 100th episode. "Every episode I've been back in has been very heavy for my character." He says all the episodes he's been in have all been different, with lots of comedy and drama, and he was "especially excited" about "Whispers." "Joe Flanigan and I had a great time shooting it."
He thinks Beckett is the "heart" in some ways, to the show, and he loves working on the show.
The Star Trek movie.
He signed a confidentiality clause so can't say much about his role. Simon Pegg got the role of Scotty instead. "It was cool to be part of that," he said of the film, and it was a pleasure working with J.J. Abrams.
He appeared in the movie The Deal in 2005 and SGA at the same time.
He had a light episode of SGA so had the opportunity to do the movie, and he said he did the Lifetime movie "Mom, Dad and Her," right after shooting "Kindred".
He's got a bunch of things up in the air at the moment, including an independent feature he'll be working on in the Fall. He did a play. He's reading for a miniseries tomorrow (which was I guess a few weeks ago?) He's back and forth between Vancouver and L.A.

Swapping plastic for plants - Mumbai organisations' green plan to tackle plastic use
- +0
- +0
The Maharashtra government has started penalising people found using plastic products from June 23.
With more and more states in the country taking to banning the use of plastics, Maharashtra too has woken up to the reality of the harm extensive use of plastic can bring to the environment.
Many organisations and non-profits are rushing to take advantage of all the awareness created around the use of plastic. Volunteer organisation Angolichi Goli recently joined hands with two other groups - Vasundhara Green Club and Nirbhaya Group, to dissuade more people from using plastic and, instead, encourage them to grown trees.
Tushar Warang, a volunteer with Angolichi Goli, told Hindustan Times,
"In exchange for five plastic bags, we give them one sapling. It is their responsibility to look after the plant and help it grow."
So far, the organisations have facilitated the planting of around 250 saplings in Dadr, Goregaon and Matunga. They have managed to collect over 1,500 plastic bags in the process from three collection drives that took place in colleges in the city.
Asmitha Gokale, who is the founder of Nirbhaya Group, explained the need to completely get rid of plastics rather than reusing them, as they often end up in the seas and harm the aquatic life, and end up as trash on beaches.
Her organisation is currently working with a company to convert plastic into fuel oil.
The Maharashtra government has started penalising people found using plastic products from June 23. Including single-use disposable plastic products, the ban has been welcomed by activists and environmentalists in the city, but has received flak from the plastic industry. The government enforced the ban after issuing the Maharashtra Plastic and Thermocol Products (manufacture, usage, sale, transport, handling, and storage) notification in March this year.

Past To Present: Who Can Replace Mohanlal, Urvashi & Others If Mithunam Is Remade Now?
The 1990's did produce some really good Malayalam movies, which could be rightly tagged as clean family entertainers. One such movie was the Mohanlal starrer Mithunam, directed by Priyadarshan.
The film, which released in the year 1993, features Mohanlal in the role of a person named Sethumadhavan, who dreams of setting up a biscuit factory of his own.
Apart from the issues faced by Sethumadhavan on the business front, Mithunam also took a close look at the husband and wife relationship. It was one of those Malayalam movies, which genuinely addressed the issues that might arise post-marriage. Apart from Mohanlal, the film also featured Urvashi, jagathy Sreekumar, Sreenivasan, Innocent, Meena, Janardhanan, Thikkurissi Sukumaran Nair, Kuthiravattom Pappu etc., in important roles
The central theme of the movie is quite relevant, even now. So, what if the film is remade now? Who can replace actors like Mohanlal, Urvashi and other lot of actors, if such a remake happens? In this week's Past To Present, we discuss about this interesting scenario.
Fahadh Faasil As Sethumadhavan (Mohanlal)
It is hard to imagine any other actor in the shoes of Sethumadhavan, the character which was effortlessly portrayed by Mohanlal. But, in case a remake happens, we feel that Fahadh Faasil would be the obvious choice for this role. He is one such young actor who can bring in certain subtle nuances that the character demands.
Anusree As Sulochana (Urvashi)
Veteran actress Urvasi got to play one of her career best roles in Mithunam, as Sulochana, the wife of Sethumadhavan, who is a complaint box. It is hard to replace a talented actress like Urvasi but if the film is remade now, we feel that Anusree will fit in to the role perfectly. She has the calibre to pull off such roles with ease.
Soubin Shahir As Preman (Sreenivasan)
How about casting Soubin in the role of Preman, portrayed by Sreenivasan in the original? Interesting, isn't it? Soubin is sure to score in such a role and more importantly, the combo of Fahadh Faasil and Soubin Shahir will surely rock on screen.
Suraj Venjaramoodu As K T Kurup (Innocent)
Innocent did give a thunderous performance as K T Kurup, the elder brother of Sethumadhavan. The character, which is a problem-maker would be safe in the hands of an actor like Suraj Venjaramoodu, if a remake of Mithunam happens now.
Kalabhavan Shajon As Suguthan (Jagathy Sreekumar)
We know that it is quite impossible for an actor to portray the role of Suguthan, the brother-in-law of Sethumadhavan, as effectively as Jagathy Sreekumar. But, from the current lot of actors, Kalabhavan Shajon is the one who can do justice to the role.
Disappointingly, the film which had its script written by Sreenivasan, wasn't a big success at the box office. But with time, the film gained a cult status among the audiences.
If a remake happens, with actors like Fahadh Faasil, Anusree, Soubin Shahir, Suraj Venjaramoodu etc., on board along with minute changes in the script according to the present day scenarios, we can be sure of getting a neat family entertainer.

Pateros, Bridgeport teams fall to non-league opponents
PATEROS – The Billygoats varsity football team put up a good first half fight but lost to a surging Cusick team 68-26 in the final two quarters of their first home game last Friday, Sept. 1.
The Panthers fielded a team of large players who wore down the Pateros varsity as the game progressed. Cusick led by only eight points, 28-20 at halftime but used their running game and two-point conversions to pile on the points through the third and fourth quarters.
Coach Marcus Stennes said his team "played a good first quarter both offensively and defensively but fatigue and lack of tackling" allowed Cusick to extend the score in the third quarter.
The Billygoats' combination of quarterback Jeremy Piechalski to receiver Ivan Ceniceros kept Pateros in the game in the first half "but it just wasn't enough," Stennes said.
Piechalski connected on 12 of 30 passes for 299 yards. Ceniceros caught six of 14 passes for 149 yards and two touchdowns. Receivers Andrew Gonzalez (2-5) and Dan Rossman (2-3) each scored a TD.
Pateros will be on the road this Friday, Sept. 8, to play Tekoa-Rosalia.
"This week we are focusing on our defense and getting in much better shape," said Stennes.
Bridgeport Mustangs
The Bridgeport Mustangs lost on the road to Chewelah, 2-0. No other game details were available at press time.
