Atlanta and the United Way of Greater Atlanta will launch a $50 million initiative to reduce homelessness in the city, Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reedannounced at his State of the City Business Breakfast Thursday morning.
"Today, I'm proud to announce that the United Way of Greater Atlanta will match the city of Atlanta's contribution of $25 million in our biggest effort yet to make homelessness brief and rare in the city of Atlanta," Reed said during his talk. "Together, today we are making a $50 million commitment that will reinforce Atlanta as a place where opportunity and human dignity come first – a city that's not only too busy to hate, but one that is not too busy to love."
The "HomeStretch" project aims to virtually eliminate chronic homelessness in Atlanta.
"The name HomeStretch signals that we see the finish line, that we can double down on where we need to be – making sure homelessness is rare and brief – and non-recurring," said Milton Little, president of United Way.
Jack Hardin, an attorney with Rogers & Hardin who has worked on the homelessness issue for more than a decade and is co-chair of the Regional Commission on Homelessness, said work on the HomeStretch initiative has been ongoing for more than a year.
"The private money is available now," Hardin said.
"The special commitments made by private donors is over and above what they normally do (for the United Way campaign)," Little added.
Asked whether this is related to the city's desire to close the Task Force for Homelessness' Peachtree-Pine homeless shelter, Little said this initiative "recognizes the need for a low barrier, low impact shelter."
Hardin echoed that thought.
"It will include some small low barrier and low impact shelters," he said – implying it would not involve creating just one shelter for hundreds of people.
Meanwhile, the mayor mentioned the strides that have occurred in helping the homeless in Atlanta.
"Since the year 2013, we have seen a 52 percent decrease in the number of unsheltered homeless individuals; a 61 percent decrease in the number of chronically homeless individuals; and a 62 percent decrease in the number of homeless veterans in our city," Reed said.

"So, what are you having?"
Call it a rite of passage. Every pregnant couple goes through it. Friends, relatives, and even those less familiar—the cashier at Wal-Mart, the teller at the local bank, or the Schwann's deliveryman—ask, "So, do you know what you're having?"
Customary responses include "a boy," "a girl," "we don't know yet," and "we've decided to keep that a secret." I know of one couple who replaced "we don't know yet" with "Yes, we know what we're having—a Lutheran, of course!" (Their Lutheran pastor baptized the baby within hours of birth.)
The question "what are you having?" may seem innocent enough, and no doubt most who ask it have no ill intentions. Nonetheless, there is something unsettling about the question itself. This becomes clearer with each new pregnancy.
"Are you hoping for a ... this time?"
Consider, for example, the typical experience of a couple whose first child is a girl. With Baby #2 now in the womb, the question "so, what are you having?" is joined by "Are you hoping for a boy this time?" The question makes sense in a culture where some parents do hope for a boy when they already have a girl (or for a girl, when they already have a boy). But the question also normalizes this attitude, as if "hoping for" one sex or the other is an attitude worth encouraging.
"Are you trying for a ... this time?"
After two or more girls, the question becomes, "Are you trying for a boy this time?" The phrase "trying for," as compared to "hoping for," suggests a greater degree of agency on the part of the parents—as if there is something mom or dad could do to determine the baby's sex.
King Henry VIII unfortunately blamed his wife for failing to bear him a son; ignorant of genetics, he did not realize it was his failure to contribute a viable Y chromosome that resulted in the child's feminine sex.
"What are you technologizing into existence?"
As Francis Bacon quipped, "Knowledge is power." Now that we know about X and Y chromosomes, among other things, technology has empowered us to choose sons over daughters, or vice versa. Men and women (I won't quite call them fathers and mothers, since in vitro fertilization technicians assume part of those roles) can now quite literally "try for" and even "obtain" a boy or a girl at will—and for a hefty price tag, too.
Having morphed from "what are you having?" to "what are you hoping for?" to "what are you trying for?" to "what are you biotechnologizing into existence?"—alas, the question no longer appears so innocent.
Broadening our horizons, increasing our cross-cultural awareness, only reveals the problem more deeply. In China, for example, a one-child government policy and a cultural preference for sons over daughters (or, son over daughter—singular) has encouraged the deployment of surgical abortion for purpose of sex selection. As for sex selection in the United States, it perhaps is more common to "terminate the spare embryos" at an IVF clinic, or else to freeze them indefinitely until a more convenient time.
"May I take your order, please?"
Extreme examples, perhaps. But even the original question already stands at the edge of the proverbial slippery slope. "What are you having?" Is that really how we speak of children? Such a question is more appropriate for a restaurant. The wife peers over her menu, asking her husband, "So, what are you having?" Then the waitress arrives, inquiring, "May I take your order please?"
"Yes, I'd like one of each, please."
Similarly, "Now that you have three boys, are you hoping for a girl this time?" follows a grammatical pattern more appropriate for a buffet line. People pass through, loading their plate with at least one of each kind, and going back for seconds if they have a favorite. But in the "buffet line" that people have misconstrued pregnancy to be, God sometimes serves several helpings of one sex before bringing the other sex to the table. How rude of Him, says our culture. We'd rather start with one of each.
And many would prefer to end with one of each, too. Perhaps all of those children's books from the 1960s have brainwashed Americans into envisioning the perfect family as Dad, Mom, Brother, and Sister, plus maybe a cat or dog.
"We're finished now, thank you."
Those who came of age in the 1960s are prone today to assume that a family with, say, four daughters, would embark on the journey of pregnancy once more only to be "trying for" a son. A fifth (or more) pregnancy just does not make sense in this Era of Planned Parenthood, unless birth control failed or the parents really, really were hoping for a child of the other sex this time.
The buffet analogy strangely fits here, too. "We're finished now." Those who don't call it quits after about seconds or thirds attract glares, ranging from curiosity to ridicule. "Don't they know when to quit?"
But let's press the question a little further. Quit on what basis? We're talking children now, not the buffet line. Should a couple intentionally stop having children after being blessed with at least one boy and one girl? Or after having three or four or five children all of the same sex—as if it's time to give up "trying"? But if it was proper to be "trying for" one sex or the other in the first place, why does it become less appropriate as the family expands? The logic seems to be this: try for one boy and one girl, but stop trying once your family size starts to impinge upon your lifestyle. Follow that rule, and no one will stare at you when you take your (two or three) children out in public.
Fortunately not all see family size in terms of "trying for" and then quitting. I rather like the slogan the Concordian Sisters have adopted – entrusting one's family size to God means that "your family size determines your lifestyle rather than the other way around."
"Whom are you receiving?"
In Holy Scripture, of course, children are not regarded as buffet servings. Nor does the Bible teach that children are things to be had, hoped for, tried for, or biotechnologized into conformity with one's narcissistic dreams. They are persons to be received. Perhaps next time you talk with someone who is pregnant, you could try asking "What do you know about the one whom are you receiving?" rather than "What are you having?"
Receiving, of course, requires a sender. That makes it different than merely "having." God sends. We receive. Or so the Lord intends it. As Christ instructed his disciples, "whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me" (Matthew 18:5). Suggesting that this attitude toward children properly extends back to conception, The Hausvater Project has encouraged "that husbands and wives welcome all of God's procreative blessings in their marriage, recognizing children as a heritage of the Lord." This concisely captures the attitude expressed in Genesis 1:28, 24:60; Psalm 127, 128, etc.
"Whom have you rejected?"
Too often we receive, but begrudgingly. (Dare a parent ever admit to a child, "We decided to have a fifth, because we were hoping for a girl, but then we ended up with five boys instead"?) Sometimes we reject rather than receive—whether preemptively through contraception or after the fact through surgical abortion and the several forms of hormonal birth control that also function abortifaciently. Sinful actions stem from sinful thoughts (cf. James 1:14-15). Receiving begrudgingly is the first step toward rejecting murderously. Neither attitude welcomes children.
"I tell you the truth," said Jesus in anticipation of the Day of Judgment, "whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me" (Matthew 25:45).
"Who has forgiven you?"
Thankfully, Jesus also said more. He did not take on human flesh and walk this earth merely to condemn us for sinning endlessly against him and our neighbors in thought, word, and deed—although he surely had plenty of solid evidence at his disposal had condemnation been his game plan. "The Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost" (Luke 19:10). This includes cheating tax collectors (the immediate context of the verse just quoted) as well as reluctant or picky parents. Indeed, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9). (How frequently I have been comforted by that little word all—Christ purifies us from all unrighteousness. Hebrews 9:12 similarly emphasizes the all-sufficiency of Christ's forgiveness for us.)
"Who has called you into parenthood?"
"With the help of the LORD," said history's first mother, "I have brought forth a man" (Genesis 4:2). And so it has been thereafter. God "opens" and "closes" wombs (Genesis 20:18, 29:31, 30:22). "Sons are a heritage from the LORD" (Psalm 127:3).
Parenthood is a divine vocation, as our Lutheran fathers testified (LC Fourth Commandment; LC Sixth Commandment; AC XXIII; AC XXVI, 10; Apol. XXIII [XI]—not to mention many other writings by Luther, Chemnitz, and the like).
Keeping this fact in mind may guide our conversations with others.
"How can you answer those who ask?"
"So, do you know what you're having?"
"We know very little about the child whom we're receiving. But we don't worry so much about that. We know the One who has sent this child into our lives. The Lord our gracious God will take care of us, and help us to care for this child, no matter what may come. If we receive a son, we'll raise him to be a man of God. If we receive a daughter, we'll raise her for godly womanhood. Either way, we are grateful, and humbled, just to have the opportunity."
Whom Are You Receiving?

This is very good. Thanks.
"As long as it's healthy, right?"
The follow-up question to our answer of not preferring boys or girls. Of course, we hope for a healthy baby, but we'll take the unhealthy ones just as joyfully.

Nick Clegg: I wish you all a very happy New Year
Originally published by UK Liberal Democrats
We have had to make some very difficult decisions, but they've been the right ones for the long term good of our country.
But that economic rescue mission is not over yet. That's why, thanks to the Liberal Democrats, the Coalition has been helping people get through these difficult times with measures to make life fairer and easier.
2011 was the year we lifted nearly a million low paid workers out of paying income tax altogether and cut taxes for 23m people - because I believe putting money back into peoples pockets makes all the difference.
It was the year more than a million children got a fairer start in life, with extra support at school through our Pupil Premium and free early years education for toddlers - because I believe that helping the youngest take their first steps in life makes all the difference.
It was the year we guaranteed pensioners a decent increase in their pension - because I believe dignity in retirement makes all the difference.
Throughout, we have taken big long-term decisions that will change the way our economy works for the better - rebalancing it away from the City of London towards stronger, more sustainable growth.
And next year we will do more. The world's first Green Investment Bank putting millions into green jobs and growth; our youth contract to get every young person out of work earning or learning; more apprenticeships than this country has ever had before; and we will take further steps to make our tax system fairer too.
What we're doing as a party, and as a Coalition, it's not easy, but it's right. We are putting the interests of the country first, and we have taken the first steps towards building a fairer, greener and more liberal country.
The next year will be one that poses many great challenges for everyone in Britain, but I know we must continue to do what's right for our country.
And with that, I wish you all a very happy New Year.
Nick Clegg MP
Leader of the Liberal Democrats and Deputy Prime Minister

ANOTHER GONE Thomas Hook Newbern, Ind.
Again we are called upon to record the death of an old man of 83 year, who died in his home in Newburn last night, of old age and general debility. He has been a citizen of this county for a number of years, and by his straightforward life he has won the respect of all who knew him. He has been very feeble for some time, and his death, though not unexpected, casts a gloom over the community in which he lived, and his neighbors will not soon forget old Uncle Tommy.
MCKIMMEY HOOK OBIT in the Columbus Republican dated Thurs. June 29, 1911-pg. 4
McKimmey Hook, aged 80 years, died Sunday evening at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Charles Pietrick, near Newbern. Funeral will be at the Newbern United Brethren Church at 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. Burial will be in the Newbern Cemetery.
Mr. Hook
was a veteran of the Civil War, having served his
country in the 143rd Indiana Volunteers.
Eunice M. Hook age 94 died in Hope, Indiana; born Aug 14, 1895 Bartholomew Co., In., daughter of Daniel B. and Susan Margaret Cope Baker married 1919 to Jesse M. Hook who died in 1969. son Martin L. Hook of Raleigh, N. C.; daughters Lillian Owen, Columbus, In., and Emma Jean Harris of Crestview, Fl., 13 grandchildren; 22 great grandchildren; buried Moravian Cemetery, Hope, Indiana.
The funeral services will be conducted by the Rev. E. A. Fleenor of the Church of God, at the home, at 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon, and burial will take place in the Odd Fellows Cemetery.
The following Obituary appeared in the Religious Telescope, Dayton, Ohio-January 1881- (The Religious Telescope was the official newspaper of the United Brethren Church at that time. Matthias had joined the Methodist Church in 1870):
Rev. M. M. HOOK died in Indianapolis, December 9th, 1880, in the 73rd year of his age. Brother Hook embraced religion, joined the United Brethren Church, and was baptized by Rev. Amos Hanway, in the year 1843. He was admitted to White River Conference in 1845. He served the church very acceptably, in the capacity of circuit preacher and presiding elder; and whether in the active work as a minister, or as a local elder, his chief object was to honor and please God. About 10 years ago he joined the Methodist Church. A short time before his death he remarked to the writer that he had never lost his strong attachment to the old church, and the warm love he had for many of his old brethren in the ministry. He leaves a wife, one son, four daughters, and many grandchildren.

We took Switzerland's train system to get us to Lucerne. It was an easy and comfortable hour to Lucern from Zurich.
And upon walking out of the Lucern Train Station you see the Kapellbrücke (Chapel Bridge) right in front of you…the oldest wooden covered bridge in Europe and the world's oldest surviving truss bridge. It is Lucerne's main symbol and attraction.
Next we took a 20 minute bus ride to where you can take cable cars up to Mount Pilatus (one of the points of interest on the Alps that overlooks Lake Lucerne and the entire city beautifully!). We had no idea what to expect…and we didn't even know we had enough time to be able to do this tour, but we did it spontaneously and it was the best decision of the trip!
Mind you, I'm afraid of heights…so I was in a bit of panic in the beginning as we just got higher and higher towards Pilatus. There is a stop in between and you can choose to hike up and down the mountain as well. There were locals doing so! Crazy! Not for me!
There is a restaurant at the half way point as well as once you reach Pilatus. A whole building sits at Pilatus that is a hotel, restaurant, and souvenir shop in one. The views are just a dream…and photos do not serve them justice. Sigh…but here are some of ours:
The waters of Lake Lucerne!
The hotel on top of Pilatus!

Oily skin is a condition that we have all faced at some time in our life. That is unless you're extremely lucky and have incredible skin that is never oily.
It's a curse for many people and if you have this skin type I'm sure you will have wondered, "How do I get rid of oily skin?"
Good news first, it's possible! However it will require daily management.
Think of your skin as a long-term project. It's going to require time, dedication and potentially a bit of money at the start.
I'll give you a bit of an understanding of oily skin and then some recommendations on how to manage it.
So why do we have oily skin?
Oil is created under the skin's surface in the oil glands (medically known as the sebaceous glands). The reason it's created is to keep the skin supple and prevent it from drying out. Without it, your skin would be dry and susceptible to cracking. I guess oily skin is a blessing after all!
The problems occur when your skin goes into overdrive and produces too much oil. This can happen for a number of reasons but the main one? Hormones!
Skin is a living organ and is always shedding dead skin cells from the top layer. More often than not, the dead skin cells combine with the oil on the skin's surface and cause blockages in your pores. This can then lead onto blackheads and pimples.
How can we stop our skin overproducing oil?
There are two answers: internal and external treatments. Generally, external treatments don't require a trip to the doctors, so I'll touch on this. Internal treatments usually require some form of medicine that alters the way your oil glands function. Try using external treatments first as you can try this at home and buy most products over the counter.
Cleanse, Tone and Moisturise!
Use products that contain Salicylic Acid or Benzoyl Peroxide.
Both of these chemicals increase the amount of dead skin cells that are removed and help to reduce oil production in the process. The quicker turnover helps prevent the oil and skin cells from combining and blocking pores and helps make the skin less likely to breakout.
I tend to use products with Salicylic Acid in as I find Benzoyl Peroxide to be too harsh, but try both out and see which works best for you.
I would recommend starting with trying Garnier Skin Naturals Pure Anti-Blackhead Deep Pore Wash and La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo. Both products have great reviews and can be used morning and night.
When using an astringent you may notice your skin becomes red or inflamed. Reduce the time when using it and slowly build your skin up to allow it time to adjust.
I would suggest having a good oil free moisturiser with no astringent properties to use as a night treatment to rehydrate the skin. I recommend the Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-Free Gel-Cream. Use this in replacement to your other night cream a couple of days a week if you're noticing redness.
There is never a 'one size fits all' solution to helping your skin. It's always worth having a skincare consultation with someone who can create a full routine that is suitable for you.
I hope you found this post informative. If you do have any questions regarding your skin, please leave a comment below or Tweet me and I'll try my best to answer it.
Until next time,

Update on June 11, 2017 – Two Lightning-Caused Fires on Reserve Ranger District
Teacher Fire
The Teacher fire, at 40 acres, is creeping in grass and downed logs. Minimal growth occurred yesterday .Due to the steep terrain and the amount of snags and wind projected, the decision was made for health and safety not to place wildland firefighters into the area. Yesterday, crews tied in the handline from Snow Lake/Dipping Vat Campgrounds to FR 713. Today, crews will start prepping FR 713 back to CAT-C021.
Gravel Fire
The Gravel Fire is estimated at 40 acres. Resources got to the fire yesterday and assessed it. The fire is located in the Bear and Whitewater-Baldy fire scars. Plan for today and through Monday, the fire will only be watched from the surrounding accessible roads. This area also has a high concentration of snags so the decision was made not to put wildland firefighters in the area.
Smoke will be visible from main roads in that area. Smoke-sensitive individuals and people with respiratory or heart disease are encouraged to take precautionary measures. Information on air quality and protecting your health can be found online at the New Mexico Department of Health website at https://nmtracking.org/fire.

Nokia Asha 210 Comes with Lumia Design and a Dedicated WhatsApp Key
A few days ago, Nokia had promised that it would introduce a fresh product and it seems that the Finnish mobile phone maker kept its promise.
Nokia has unveiled a new handset to its Asha line-up, and is calling it the Asha 210.
Interestingly, the Nokia Asha 210 comes with a new design, which gives it a look similar to the Lumia line.
But the real surprise element in the Asha 210 is its dedicated WhatsApp button, which makes the Asha 210, the first phone with an in-built WhatsApp key.
This key is located to the left of the keypad and enables direct access to the messaging app. It also integrates the contact list and lets you know who else in your friend group is using the service.
The Asha 210 sports a 2.4-inch screen and has a 320 x 240 pixel resolution. The handset is pre-installed with Series 40 operating system and offers a variety of other apps such as Nokia's Xpress web browser, Facebook, Twitter, Nokia Slam, Gmail and YouTube apps and many more.
It also includes a 2-megapixel rear camera and offers a voice guided self-portrait mode. It also supports a microSD card slot and Bluetooth 2.1.
Another exciting feature in the Asha 210 is its battery life, and according to Nokia, the battery of the phone can last up to 46 days on a single charge.
Currently, Nokia is offering both single and dual SIM models of the Asha 210 and the handset will start shipping this June with a price tag of $72.

Two of my colleagues [and co-authors] at Dauphine, Elyès Jouini and Clotilde Napp, published a paper in Science last week (and an associated tribune in Le Monde which I spotted first) about explaining differences in national gender inequalities in maths (as measured by PISA) in terms of the degree of overall inequality in the respective countries. Gaps in the highest maths performer sex ratio. While I have no qualm about the dependency or the overall statistical cum machine learning analysis (supported by our common co-author Jean-Michel Marin), and while I obviously know nothing about the topic!, I leisurely wonder at the cultural factor (which may also partly explain for the degree of inequality) when considering that the countries at the bottom of the above graphs are rather religious (and mostly catholic). I also find it most intriguing that the gender gap is consistently reversed when considering higher performer sex ratio for reading, because mastering the language should be a strong factor in power structures and hence differences therein should also lead to inequalities…

Last time I visited India, I highlighted an advertisement for a machine-learning match-making system. This time, while eating a last aloo paratha for breakfast in Kolkata, I noticed ads for Hindu temples on the back of my Air India boarding passes which are actually run by the State of Gujarat rather than the temples themselves. (Gujarat is India's westernmost state.)
humanism [book review]Posted in Books, Kids with tags atheism, book review, humanism, meaning of life, Philosophy of religions, religions on January 14, 2018 by xi'an
Along Atheism a very short introduction, I also bought Humanism a very short introduction, as they come by two at the Warwick campus bookstore (!). And here is a very short review.
Written by Stephen Lee, the book is much less irritating than Atheism. In my opinion. Maybe because it is constructed in a much more positive way, maybe because the quotes and illustrations suited me better, maybe because it was another day, or maybe because the stress on the "human" rather than on the "a-" is closer to my own philosophy. Still, the core of the two books is essentially the same, namely a rebuke of the argument that morality only comes as a byproduct of religion(s), and a rather standard processing of arguments for and against the existence of god(s). Plus entries on humanist education and the meaning of life. And a nice cover. Pleasant but not earth-breaking to the point of convincing sceptics.
it's only an eclipse, for heavens sake!Posted in Statistics with tags astronomy, eclipse, rationalism, religions, secularism, solar system on September 2, 2017 by xi'an
I have been amazed and utterly baffled by the number of commentaries about the solar eclipse of last week that involved metaphysics and religious aspects. An eclipse is a most natural [and beautiful] phenomenon of one astronomical object getting in front of another one in a very predictable way: no reason to invoke deities or spirits in the process!
burkiniculousPosted in Statistics with tags Égalité, burkini ban, Fraternité, freedom of expression, French politics, Liberté, religions on September 3, 2016 by xi'an
The current burkini bans and the ensuing controversy are yet another indicator of the low standards of the French political class as a whole. Rather than acknowledging that terrorist and (even less) psychopath attacks cannot be always prevented and that a democratic society has to live with the possibility of such dangers, politicians of both sides engage into a blame game and try to cater to far-right and xenophobic voters by introducing anti-democratic measures such as this absurd ban. Measures that have no impact whatsoever on the security threats but strongly infringe upon civil liberties. The reasons advanced by the dozen of mayors who imposed such bans are non-sensical: from hygiene (walking or bathing on one of those beaches can quickly demonstrate this is not a shared concern!), to good manners (no matter how one defines this term, beaches are the last place to seek good manners!), to public order (if wearing a specific dress leads to verbal or physical aggressions by other beach-goers, the aggressors should be prosecuted, not the aggressed), to women rights (because the few women involved visibly cannot make their own choices) and to security (of whom? the wearer who could drown in 30cm of water or the watcher who could choke upon one's extreme-righteous rage?!). No, the real and only reason is to exclude muslim gear from beaches, once again to cater to the extreme portion of the electorate. Further, as noted by many commentators on this ridiculous affair, this ban only impacts women, while no French policeman goes asking male sunbathers about their religious or political opinions… Local and State authorities would be definitely inspired in creating support against social, religious and sexual harassment on women, rather than adding to this harassment.
As someone permanently opposed to dress codes, whether imposed by State, religions or social environment, I obviously object to such bans as a privation of liberty. The way and the reasons people dress or undress the way they dress or undress is their business, it does not have to account for the feelings of the onlookers, and one does not have to provide justification for wearing long sleeves or a scarf on a beach. Just as one does not have to wear long sleeves or a scarf to obey social pressure. The very few times I could not avoid standing on a beach with no shade, I chose to cover myself as much as possible. And did not feel I needed to give a reason for my attitude. The same should apply to everyone: Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité!

latest interviews on the philosophy of religion(s)Posted in Books, Kids with tags atheism, Blaise Pascal, evolution, Mersenne, Philosophy of religions, psychology, religions, Richard Dawkins, sociology, The New York Times, The Stone on November 1, 2014 by xi'an
"But is the existence of God just a philosophical question, like, say, the definition of knowledge or the existence of Plato's forms?" Gary Gutting, NYT
Although I stopped following The Stone's interviews of philosophers about their views on religion, six more took place and Gary Gutting has now closed the series he started a while ago with a self-interview. On this occasion, I went quickly through the last interviews, which had the same variability in depth and appeal as the earlier ones. A lot of them were somewhat misplaced in trying to understand or justify the reasons for believing in a god (a.k.a., God), which sounds more appropriate for a psychology or sociology perspective. I presume that what I was expecting from the series was more a "science vs. religion" debate, rather than entries into the metaphysics of various religions… Continue reading

All Government spending over $250 would be declared on a publicly accessible website under an accountability push by the Australian Conservatives.
The Advertiser reports party argues public disclosure of all spending, including that of departments, would ensure taxpayer money was spent carefully.
All expenditure over $250 would need to be posted on a central website within 30 days of purchase, with a receipt attached.
Australian Conservatives MP Dennis Hood said the website was a quick way to allow South Australians to know if their tax dollars were being spent wisely.
At present Government ministers and department chief executives must disclose their credit card and travel expenditure on separate department websites.
Departments are not required to publicly disclose expenditure, such as the Environment Department's $80,000 outlay on indoor pot plants for staff.
Share this important information with your family, friends and mates - Like Australian Conservatives on Facebook to stay updated.

- This is the beginning of a new sub-chapter, but there's no button yet.
Oh Gordoh, I've missed your cheerful disposition. In the 3 pages you've been gone.
So, having 2D characters in a 3D background just kinda... doesn't work very well. So, think of Meta as kind of a Paper Mario NPC. They can't appear to be looking behind them, but they somehow are. (Editing sprites? PFFT.)
I made sure the text was centered within the bubbles in this page... I think it looks considerably better.
Also, the Extras page has been updated with scrapped pages, so go check those out!
Oh, and as if this comment wasn't long enough, I've started hero mode on Zelda: ALBW, and... Well, let's just say I'm on the second dungeon, and I've already died more times in hero mode than I did in normal mode. Gah.
- Quick heads-up, the page is gonna be really late.

Earlier this summer, for the first time, one of my own kids was with me as a camper for Middle School camp. This morning, I took her to middle school orientation. I spend a lot of time around middle schoolers, so the mix of excitement and nervous fear in the building today wasn't too surprising – but it's been "interesting" making adjustments to actually having a middle schooler of my own (who thinks 11 is way more adult than her father does, by the way).
Emily's looking forward to getting back to school and is excited about the schedule. We got to walk through the building this morning, finding classes and seeing friends who haven't connected much over the summer, as well as meeting teachers. She seems to have a really good group of teachers, so as a parent and a youth pastor, that's something for which I'm very grateful.
And just as my daughter's entering a new phase, I think I am too. For 12 years, I've done ministry with other people's kids, but now, the first of my own kids will begin a wave that will have them being more present than they have ever been. Here's what I'm hoping:
I hope having my own daughter in my primary ministry group won't cause me to hold back in challenging my students to fully chase after God. It's one thing to encourage someone else's little girl to listen when God's telling her to go into dangerous situations on His mission, but what about my own daughter taking that risk? Will I still be willing to nudge my students toward the God-led risks they need to take? I think so, but I have a lot more skin in the game now – my own flesh and blood…
I hope I can be even more present for her peers without sacrificing the special relationship a daughter should have with her dad. As a youth pastor, I want to take advantage of every opportunity to help young people see Jesus, but I don't want to manipulate my daughter's relationships toward my own ends. She's not my little spy into the world of youth culture. I have to admit, sometimes I feel a little awkward as a mid-thirties guy showing up at a Jr. High band concert/football game… If I didn't know my own motives, it could be a little creepy.
I hope I can be the dad I need to be and the pastor I need to be. The tension between what my family needs and what my ministry needs is not an easy tension to manage. I hope I can leverage that tension well to propel both my kids and the other people's kids that I'm privileged to serve into the life Christ dreams for them.

The archive is mainly used for research and source material. Trying to think outside these goals I came a cross the the idea of a collection game.
To take the game away from the computers the game play should have the world itself as the playing field.
These 2 elements stimulates a community around the archive which in return keeps the archive more alive.
The game is about collecting fragments of the archive. These fragments are collected on a mobile interactive device, iPhone app, siftable and such.
The fragments can be sold, bought, stolen, traded and found. For example a way to "find" a archive fragment is done by using the Mobile Device and poles. These poles can be found in public spaces like libraries, theater, museums and concerts.
The game play can be either more like a card game or a treasure hunt. Both creating a situation where people need to work whit each other to get an social experience.

Rovers sign midfielder Ed Upson
May 22, 2018
The signature of Upson is the first arrival of the summer of Rovers, as the twenty-eight-year-old joins the club as a free-agent, effective from the 1st July.
A product of the Ipswich Town academy, the midfielder navigated the ranks at Portman Road to sign his first professional at the age of seventeen.
Temporary spells on loan at both Barnet and Stevenage allowed Upson to gain a taste of first-team football, before switching to join Yeovil on a permanent basis in 2010.
His spell at Huish Park was a successful one, as he part of the Yeovil side that achieved promotion to the Championship in 2013-14, while cementing his place in the first-team.
A move to join Millwall followed, joining the south-London side for two full seasons in the Skybet Championship, with his stay at the New Den concluding with a season-long stint in the third tier of English football.
Upson was most recently part of the squad at MK Dons, where he featured heavily last season, tallying just shy of fifty appearances during the 2017/18 campaign.
In total, the midfielder is approaching three-hundred EFL appearances, with eighteen league goals to his name.
Speaking about the new addition to his squad, Manager Darrell Clarke added, "Ed is someone that I have admired for a number of years."
"He's a player that has a vast amount of experience at this level and at a higher level also."
"Ed adds healthy competition to the central midfield positions and we are looking forward to having him on board."
After finalising the paperwork at the Memorial Stadium this afternoon, the new recruit signalled his delight at getting the switch confirmed at the early stage of the off-season.
"I'm pleased to finally be here and to have the deal all sorted," said Upson.
"I met the Manager early in the week and he's a very ambitious person and I know the club is also very ambitious. I think the mixture of those two things could propel the club into the next division."
The midfielder will link up with his new teammates for pre-season.

Our reputation has been built on a long line of quality components and signature shock tunes turning out everything from budget friendly leveled trucks to fully caged, off-road specific diesel race trucks. Given our extensive experience, we offer complete Suspension Systems tuned in house that facilitate any level of desired on-road and off-road performance in the Heavy Duty Platforms.
As the shock package is the main determinate of ride quality and capability among our suspensions, they are the distinguishing difference among the System offerings below. Each "Base Kit" is equipped with a Custom Tuned Shock Package, 2.75"-3" Lift Coil Springs and, where applicable, Sway Bar and Rear Leaf Spring options allow each customer the option to equip the system as they see fit. Additionally, products including Extended Control Arms, Long Arm Conversion, Long Travel Airbags, Extreme Duty Ball Joints, Steering Stabilizers, Axle Truss, Shock Mounts, Hydraulic Bump Stops and a Differential Guard from our Components section offer the opportunity for complete customization of individual application.
Entry level suspension systems designed for those that keep it on the tarmac. Street Systems boast an aggressive stance while providing the user with more travel and control than the stock platform. Unlike mass-produced lift-kits, the above is accomplished without sacrificing ride quality or drivability as typically associated with lifting a vehicle. The Street Systems are fully upgradeable to the "Recreational" and "Off-Road Systems" without the need to purchase an entirely new suspension system.
Leveling Kit
3″ lift coils paired with Carli Signature Series shocks to increase control and comfort without breaking the bank.
Starter Kit
Front Leveling Kit with matching rear Carli Signature Series Shocks and option for 1″ progressive spring lift in the rear.
Dubbed the "Jack of all Trades" systems; these suspensions are designed for those that consider their truck to be a tool. Carli Signature Shock Tuning pairs with industry leading components to provide users with more predictable suspension response while increasing in-cabin comfort. Systems in the Recreational category are a very balanced increase of both on-road and off-road performance.
Performance 2.0 Kit
Custom Tuned Bilstein 7100 Remote Reservoir Shocks provide users with a comfortable, entry level off-road capability paired with a controlled, vastly improved on-road ride.
Pintop 2.5 Kit
2.5″ Custom-Tuned Remote Reservoir King Shocks makes for a substantial on-road and off-road performance improvement. Take the Backcountry and throw an exponent on it.
Dominator 3.0 Kit
Custom Tuned 3.0″ King Remote Reservoir Shocks deliver a soft, yet controlled on-road ride quality with substantially more bottom out capability than the Pintop 2.5.

Getting entangled in a legal case is the last thing a person wants to be in. However, sometimes, such cases are inevitable. When you find yourself in hot waters, there is nothing better to do than by finding the right lawyer.
Unfortunately, not all criminal lawyers are the same. Fortunately, however, experts at the Law Office Of Troy P. Owens, Jr share ways you can evaluate whether or not that assault lawyer in San Diego is the right one for you.
Qualities to look for in selecting a criminal defense lawyer
Specializes in your charges
This is a crucial factor to consider when finding a defense lawyer. Working with one who specializes in your case will give you a better advantage than one who specializes in real estate and does not have courtroom experience. Check their credentials and shop wisely.
Solid team
Choosing a good lawyer is not enough. The team he will be working with is as important. Doing a background check on him and his team will give you a better idea of how he handles cases and whether or not you have a strong chance of winning them.
Easy communicator
The law is not an easy subject. Laymen will not understand the majority of the terms and jargons used inside and outside the courtroom. A good lawyer is one who can help you understand the things happening around your case as well as effectively communicate your point to the authorities involved. If you do not understand your lawyer, then do not hesitate to let go and find a new one.
Good references
A good lawyer will have a good reputation, and this will be supported by references and reviews from clients and acquaintances. Do not be afraid to sniff around to know more about your lawyer.
Found these qualities in your lawyer? Congratulations! You got yourself a good one. If not, do not hesitate to start all over and find a new one.

"Once upon a time there was a little mouse house. It was like a doll's house, but not for dolls, for mice."
When Mary receives a sweet little mouse house as a gift, she is delighted! But then she peeks inside and discovers that the tiny house contains only mice dolls; she is terribly disappointed. She wants REAL mice to live in the beautiful little home.
So, Mary puts the house away and forgets all about it, until one day she discovers that Bonnie, a real mouse, has moved in and made the tiny house her home!
Let the fun begin!
This story has delighted children for decades. Rumer Godden was a very prolific children's and adult novelist from the 1930's until the 1990's. She wrote nearly 40 novels for kids. Mouse House is one of her best known today.
And yes, Rumer Willis (daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis) is named after Rumer Godden. Maybe it's time to understand why!

Sun N Fun- RV Park
Sarasota, Florida
Destination Fun- An Accessible RV Park
Sun N Fun RV Park-
How do I tell you about this wonderful world of Sun N Fun ? The west coast of Florida location of Sun N Fun puts you close
to miles of palm fringed white sandy beaches and the sparkling Gulf of Mexico.
When I heard Sun N Fun Sarasota, had 1800 sites, I said 'wow', much too big and impersonal for me- I like a camp
ground around 250 sites will tolerate one at 400 sites but 1800 sites- no way. Well was I totally mistaken,it is one of the
friendliest Rv ResortsI have ever been to.
Rather than just telling you let me show you what my day was like, the other day.
Having limited mobility, I use an electric 3-wheel scooter and cane ,I can only walk a short distance so accessibility is
very important to me. Sun N Fun is just wonderful, easy to get around, accessible and a place I felt right at home.
The other morning I stepped out of my RV around 7 am, the sun was up, the sky was blue and it was already warm. Florida at
its best. I decided to have coffee and read the paper, so got on my electric scooter and tooted past the work out room which
was full with those very dedicated folks who must exercise in the morning, towards the laundry to buy a paper. The laundry
was buzzing with folks getting their clothes done before the day begins. I picked up a USA today (always like seeing the weather
map) It gives me some type of sneaky pleasure to see a snowstorm in the northeast. Tucked my paper in my basket and headed
back to the RV,looked over and saw that the lawn bowling greens were being rolled down for today's play, passed the
post office which opens at 9 am, then the Video rental trailer which doesn't open until 1 pm.
Before turning back toward the RV, I saw the guys and gals were sweeping down the 18-shuffleboard courts for start at 8:30
(every morning).
Started to read the news of the day and of course that was after many "good mornings" by people passing my site
on their morning walks. No luck- Cody (my Westie) has awakened and needs his morning run. So on my electric scooter and head
for the lake and towards the east end of the park, I remind myself to look at the schedule on the Resort TV channel to see
when the miniature sailing races are on the lake..
As I approach the east end having said "good morning" to at least a dozen folks, I see the 3 volley ball nets
are up, they are raking the courts and are ready to start at 9 am. Walking past that I see folks are already playing doubles
on the tennis courts. We start heading home and I notice the Pavilion and wonder what card games will be playing there tonight,
the other night nearly every seat was taken. Think they were playing, poker, bridge and Euchre and I am sure a few games I
don't know.
Now back to my coffee (re warmed in the microwave) and paper. Then out pops Karen our next-door neighbor from Ohio wishes
me the warmest "good morning" and asks if I want to go to the beach with them today, - it is only a 15 minutes
drive away. I decline but say maybe another day this week- she says "your on". Well reading the paper seems like
a wash as Carol stops on her bike just to say hi on her way to the Glass Shop. Yes, they do stained glass here at Sun N Fun.
I realize I am going to be late for the morning coffee/ meeting. As I am leaving my friend Linda, suggest we go Restaurant
for dinner tonight as they are having roast beef, suits me. I have dived into the excellent buffet several times and have
enjoyed it each time.
So once again, I get on my electric scooter heading for the west end of the park. It is now close to 8 am and the place is
becoming busier, with many golf carts, two wheel electric scooters, and cars buzzing around. It will take me about 10 minutes
to scoot up to Woodland hall (Rec Center).
As I pass the Computer center I remind myself that I need to print a couple of things off and also must go later to the business
center and plug in my laptop and go on High speed hook up and get my email. It is great to have high speed and it is free
too. As I head for the morning meeting I pass by the pool complex and am trying to decide if I will go to Water Exercise at
9:30 or just a swim in the heated pool and then a whirl pool at noon hour (oh the hard decisions).
I pass by the wood shop, which is large with lots of tools.
I put my Scooter on rabbit and head for coffee/meeting. Get there and the place is full of activity and once again so many
"good mornings" "beautiful day"
The coffee meeting lets everyone know what is happening today and special events coming up, this is what I heard, Bingo Tuesday
and Thursday Nights, Karaoke Tuesday and Friday at Poolside Bar.
There is a BQ dinner coming up On Wednesday night- tickets on sale for that. There is going to be a blood pressure clinic
next Tuesday and Next Saturday there is going to be a swimsuit sale around the pool. Church service on Sunday morning and
entertainment around the pool on Sunday afternoon. They remind us all about several potluck suppers in the next couple of
Several of the volunteers stand up and let us know about their activity, square dancing at Woodlawn Hall, The Red Hat Society
is off to lunch next week, The On site yard sale is coming up.
The golf folks tell us about the several time and courses they go out to each week,
Then with lots of laughter and good coffee we head out into that warm sunshine, I stop and chat with Anne and Russell for
a few minutes, notice that Billiards has started for women, and next door to that is the hairdresser and the chairs are filled
As I scoot back to get my bathing suit and go to the pool, I pass by a couple of the lakes and stop and watch the egrets.
My little scooter (a GO GO by Pride) goes great but those Golf carts do get around really well. When I come back next year
might rent one, hear you can rent them for about $160.00 per month- that seems reasonable to me!
As I head for the center of the Park, I hear the clang of the horseshoes look over and see the miniature golf have a few folks
playing and right beside it is Bocci ball and I think they play that in the afternoon.
Bikes and Scooters (2 wheels) are parked at the pool so must hurry and get my suit on, As I come close to my RV I see that
the lawn bowling greens are totally full- looks like everyone is wearing whites and laughing and smiling.
Enter secondary content here
Now home and off for a swim, then check on email, out for supper and then maybe Bingo- or maybe I will go get that book I
was readying and just sit and read, you see Sun N Fun has over 150 activities a week and you can do some or none of them,
your choice.
I love this place because it has so much to do, if I want I can do as little, or as much as I like. I love hearing the laughter
of the Petangue group at 4:30- Petangue is like Bocci ball, but the balls are smaller and metal. I love hearing the music
of the Karaoke, and I love hearing the singing of the birds. I never tire of saying good morning or good day to people and
chatting with new friends,
Yes, I know Sun N Fun has won awards for Best camp grounds- and so they should. But that doesn't make this place special,
I know Sun N Fun has 1800 sites, about 800 RV sites and the rest Park models, mostly owned but some for rent.
I know the surroundings are great with many wooded areas, great walking areas, and many flowers.
I know the width and breath of activities are like no other RV park I ever have been too.
I know the food is great in the restaurant and the music wonderful in the bar, the Olympic size pool is heated, the laundry
has good machines, and the bathhouses are clean.
I know for me who has limited mobility it is VERY easy to get around, great ramps, good showers etc.
Also if you want to come to Sun N Fun and don't have a RV to use they have an accessible Park Model trailer, which I
personally inspected and is very good.
That's not what makes Sun N Fun so special, it's the people, all the people from the gatehouse to the sales staff,
from the waitresses in the restaurant to the activities staff, from the front desk staff to the maintenance folks- and of
course ALL the volunteers that run ALL the activities.
Sun N Fun is a community. From all corners of the country and Canada too we come to Sun N Fun and make it home, make it a
thriving happy community, make it a fun place to live
Now if you must leave Sun N Fun. You will find everything from malls, to Wal-Mart to St Armans Circle- one of the most prestigious
shopping areas in Florida. Of course, there are movie theatres, restaurants galore, and attractions from deep-sea fishing,
to scenic boat tours.
Take at look at Sun N Fun's web site www.sunnfunfl.com
Call 1-800- 843-2421 for RV site reservations or if you want to rent a park model
7125 Fruitvale road, Sarasota. Florida
Special thanks goes to Lynn Miller- a wonderful enthusiastic and busy gal at Sun N Fun who gave me lots of time and wonderful
Well think I have given you the flavor of Sun N Fun, come on down try it for yourself, you won't be disappointed- and
"Good Day to you" " Good morning to you"

Rapid advancements in wireless communication technologies in the recent years has led to the emergence and growth of Bluetooth beacons, which is a distinctive field of proximity connectivity. Beacons are defined as proximity devices, transmitting Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) signals, received by nearby portable electronic devices, in order to facilitate varied applications, including advertising, indoor navigation, notification & alert, monitoring, real time analysis, and quick interaction, among others. Bluetooth technology was developed in 1989 by Dr. Nils Rydbeck, CTO at Ericsson Mobile, with the basic purpose of providing a means of wireless communication.
Prodigious need and interest to incorporate wireless technologies across numerous industry verticals have led to a drastic transformation in the Bluetooth technology, with the latest Bluetooth versions replacing legacy technologies and strengthening beacon solutions in IoT driven wireless communication systems, thus, enabling the maturation and growth of the beacon industry. Beacons essentially operate using Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy standard, which allows it to establish a one-way connection, unlike prior versions of Bluetooth.
The beacons technology market will take a couple of years to reach its full market potential and commercialization. Currently, beacons are dependent on Bluetooth enabled mobile devices with a compatible software application.
The effective realization of beacons technology platform involves creative concepts and resources for developing interactive applications. Large and well-known retailers may not face the issue in getting the user to download their applications, however, the small and medium-sized retailers and business certainly have the problem of expanding their reach. Moreover, the maintenance cost of beacons system is quite high as compared to other proximity wireless communication platforms. However, companies are opting for strategies to reduce the maintenance cost incurred due to batteries is by utilizing USB beacons, which are easy to configure with infinite durability and low maintenance cost.
According to the latest market research report by BIS Research, titled 'Global Beacons Technology Market -…ast: 2017 to 2026', the global beacons technology market reported a revenue of $519.6 million in 2016, with retail end user accommodating for the highest revenue by 2026. Increase in Internet of Things (IoT) spending, a rise in the demand for beacons for providing location-based marketing, and development visions for smart cities across the globe are driving the growth of the market.

From: Guy Bobenrieth Re: ExCost, XML and Cost Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Date: 1998/09/21 Groups: comp.text.sgml
Hi, I have released ExCost6666 a new version of the Cost extension derived from Cost21. This version is in very alpha stage .... but seems to work ! --------------------- ExCost6666 --------------------- What is it : Cost21 was working on ESIS files produced from sgml files by tools like SP from James Clark. This version doesn't need ESIS files any more. Instead you should feed it with XML files as it is using Expat for its internal parser. As for Cost21, you can then work on your XML files using a tree driven or event driven behaviour. ExCost has several new functionnalities like keepstream, esis {set|free|data}, ... that you should find intersting ! You may find more information under: http://r8m70.cybercable.tm.fr Have fun, Guy Bobenrieth

Make Magazine has a post and video of a little steam powered boat for the pathtub! I gotta say, I think it's a pretty smart little solution. I wouldn't recommend it for your 4 year old, but if you're 24, and you still play with boats in the tub, I'd definitely recommend putting one of these bad boys together!
The video they have isn't of the most glorious boat, but it works none the less. With a little bit of work, you could definitely make your own small version that fits in the tub with you (instead of taking the whole thing up).
