House HH, Tokyo Building Project, Photo, News, Japanese Design, Property Image
Residential Development in Tokyo, Japan
House HH – design by Miyahara Architect Office
25 Mar 2010
House HH Tokyo
House_HH residence for an "urban" extended family #4
Design: Miyahara Architect Office
This is a residence designed for a brother and sister. The area of the site measures approximately 70 m2, and the total floor space, 80 m2.
In this project, the client wanted a habitat that would enable the siblings to lead separate lives on weekdays and together as a family on weekends. Thus, the plan includes two bedrooms and two main rooms. The first floor is for the sister and the second floor for the brother. On weekdays, House HH functions as a residence for two family units with each sibling staying in their own main room and bedroom on each floor. Though the rooms are by no means large due to the limited area of the site, ample storage capacity and varied nuance of the ceilings contribute in giving the rooms a rich, pleasant and warm atmosphere.
The second floor corridor has large top lights and the floor is created with fiberglass reinforced plastic grating, allowing light to filter through to the first floor. This makes it possible for people on the first floor to feel the presence of people on the second floor, and vice versa. The first floor corridor, which is filled with light, is paved with concrete tiles that continue onto the front road. In other words, the corridor has been designed as an outer space, serving as a buffer area to separate the brother and sister on weekdays, and functioning as a light garden to bring the two together as a family on weekends.
House HH can switch modes between weekdays and weekends by taking the action of seeking light, that is to say, by opening the sliding doors next to the stairs, and the corridors. This joins the two main rooms on each floor together through the stairs and the light garden beyond, resulting in one large main room filled with light – a space for the residents as a family. The sliding door also serves to divide the first floor area into two, creating a smaller room with privacy. On weekends and holidays, the layout takes on the appearance of one main room and two bedrooms for one family.
Thus, House HH was completed as a house for a brother and sister, as a house that can switch lifestyles and family units between weekdays and weekends. I believe that this is another solution for urban families as they become more varied and complex.
P.S. I would also like to add that House HH managed to achieve an extremely low construction cost (including the demolition cost of the old house) of under 20 million yen.

- BJP retains its seats
New Delhi: If the results of the by-polls to four Lok Sabha and ten Assembly seats are any indication, the people of the country have accepted the bold move by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to demonetize the Rs 1,000 and Rs 500 notes in spite of the pain it caused.
The by-elections were held across six states in the country. The opposition which has been blocking discussion in parliament in the name of pain to the people on account of scarcity of currency notes has failed to prove its points in the by-polls which were considered a referendum on Modi.
In Madhya Pradesh, a BJP-ruled state, the ruling party retained a Lok Sabha seat and an Assembly seat. BJP's Gyan Singh defeated Congress candidate Himadri Singh and won Shahdol seat by a margin of over 60,000 votes. In the Nepanagar Assembly constituency, the BJP candidate Manju Dadu trounced rival Antar Singh Barde of the Congress by a huge margin of 42,198 votes. The Shahdol seat fell vacant after the death of BJP's Dalpat Singh Paraste.
Another BJP ruled state, Assam, also returned the ruling party candidates. Pradan Barua won the Lakhaimpur Lok Sabha seat for the BJP defeating the Congress party's Hema Prasanga Pegu by a massive majority of 1,90,219 votes. The seat was vacated by Assam Chief Minister Sarbananada Sonowal. Mansigh Rongpi of the BJP, who left the Congress in July, pocketed the Baithalangso Assembly seat beating the Congress candidate Ruponsing Ronghang by 16,600 votes.
In Arunachal Pradesh, Dasingu Pul, wife of former chief minister Kalikho Pul, who committed suicide in Augurs defeated Independent candidate Yompi Kri by a small margin of 944 votes to win the Anjaw Assembly. CPM had retained the Left Front seat and wrested another from the Congress. CPM's Biswajit Datta defeated TMC's Manoj Das by 16,094 votes in Khowai while in Barjala Assembly constituency the CPM youth leader Jhumu Sarkar defeated BJP's Shista Mohan Das by 3,374 votes. The Congress suffered loss of face.
In Bengal, Trinamool Congress retained the Tamluk and Cooch Behar Lok Sabha and Monteshwar Assembly seats by huge margins tempting Mamata Banerjee to comment that the results are a rejection of PM's demonetization move. But she missed a very important point. The BJP has ended up in second slot relegating the CPM which was downsized to 21 percent of the vote. The Congress had a face saver in Pondicherry where the chief minister won the by-election.

If you do not want to lose valuable time and miss one of the best prices, be sure to listen to us and check your existing datasheet or make your registration. If the registration and the datasheet are OK, the registration will be easy and simple.
First of all, once again about registration:
From the opening of the registration, from October 16, 7:30 PM, (when the data sheets are properly filled up), you will see the Sign In button, which you can click to choose a distance, and you will also give two or three quick data (shirt size, planned time) and you can save the entry.
To avoid any misunderstanding, make sure that when you select the distance you will see the actual entry price right away. This does not change for 20 minutes, so if a valid payment is made, the entry fee is guaranteed at that price. If you are "offline" for 20 minutes, you may have been lost in the preferential band.
After this you can then find yourself on the payment page where you can match the entry fee with an online credit card. It is important that the entry will only be valid if the transaction is completed at the end, otherwise it will be lost. You will receive a confirmation letter for a successful entry and it will also be visible under the Registration tab.
You can find the entry fees and the bands by clicking here.

I have noticed that many times artists don't do or take the next step involved with their projects because they don't know the next step. So sometimes it's best to get the most information and research before going into the unknown. So for anyone that want's to put on an Art Exhibition, here you go. Here's an article from wikihow that goes into detail about setting up an art exhibit or putting on an art display.

Fire is one of man's greatest tools. It can power large factories as well as keeping our homes warm. At the same time if it is out of control it can burn down thousands of acres of a forest in a day. A small spark inside a house can cause an electrical fire that can destroy an entire home instantly. Inflammation like fire can be very useful in certain situations but detrimental in others.
The process of inflammation is the first and greatest defence of our body. When we hear the term inflammation we usually think that there is a problem in our body. But we miss the fact that the inflammation itself is not the problem, but normally the solution to a problem that has preceded it.
"In a healthy situation, inflammation serves as a good friend to our body," says Mansour Mohamadzadeh, PhD, director of the Center for Inflammation and Mucosal Immunology at the University of Florida.
"But if immune cells start to overreact, that inflammation can be totally directed against us."
When the body tissue is injured the immune system begins a response in order to manage the damage. Substances called prostaglandins are released causing the blood vessels in the area to dilate. This allows neutrophils to reach the wound and 'clean up' the area while platelets clot the wound site. It also allows for macrophages - another immune cell - to rush the area and release growth factors that help to heal the injured tissues.
This response is crucial to the healing process. However much of the advice we hear regarding treating injuries aims to quell the inflammation which is necessary for the healing. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) halt the release of prostaglandins, diminishing the body's ability to activate the cells required that heal the area of injury. Additionally they inhibit the synthesis of proteoglycans, a substance required to repair the connective tissue of our ligaments and tendons.
Another commonly prescribed treatment of acute injuries known as R.I.C.E (Rest, ice, compression and elevation). Aims to decrease inflammation, effectively halting the healing process. Even Dr. Gabe Mirkin, the inventor of the R.I.C.E prescription, has called into question the efficacy of this treatment stating that "it now appears that both ice and complete rest may delay healing instead of helping".
Ice decreases the blood flow to the area, disabling the transport of required immune cells into the damaged tissue. It also decreases the release of growth factors required for healing. Tissues that already have low blood supply, such as ligaments, are particularly affected by this further decrease in blood flow. Ligament injuries that have failed to heal completely are often the root cause of chronic pain in many joints, including the ankles, knees, low back, neck and shoulders.
Let's look at the benefits of a healthy inflammatory response:
However chronic and unchecked inflammation can cause:
What can we do to prevent your body's greatest defense from becoming your body's greatest enemy?
Most people come to us because they are in pain. Pain has that function, to move us to do something about whatever it is that might be damaging to our body. And most times we can help and things get back to normal again.
What we also know about pain, is that it is not that easy. If the cause of pain is a door that is squeezing your fingers or a nail that you happen to step on, normally, yes. The pain is quite straight forward; potential or actual damage – I get out of the situation – I, the body itself or some health professional help heal it – pain disappears.
But what about the man that came into the clinic in Australia with excruciating pain in his foot where the nail he had stepped on came out from under his boot and through the top of his foot. He was desperate and had unbearable pain as he came into the emergency room. As they cut the boot open, they saw that the nail had gone through between two of his toes and not done any tissue damage whatsoever!
Then what is pain? Real enough, for sure! For this man, he was in a terrible state of pain, that was real and not imagined.
A common definition of pain says:
Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage (1).
This definition covers the understanding that it is a sensory and emotional experience (like for the man seeing the nail though the top of his foot, imagine that fear!), and it is associated with an actual or POTENTIAL tissue damage (seeing that nail though his boot as a very potential damage, and the pain signals firing at full alarm in his body).
Understanding pain is a complex thing. That´s why we have investigated and done research and work on it for decades and decades, and that despite of all pain clinics worldwide we have not been able to find The Solution to get people completely out of pain.
So, as in every situation, the question is, what do we know, and what can we do something about in the complex problem of persisting pain?
One thing do we now know; Understanding the mechanisms of pain can help reduce it!
Whenever there is an unpleasant stimulus to the body (like the nail through the foot or a hand too close to a candle), we call these signals noxious, and they are picked up by sensors called nociceptors. The nociceptors are programmed to pick up signals of physical, chemical or temperature stressors. These sensors then send the signals through the nerves to the spinal cord.
Remember, these signals will come if you are on the verge of getting your hand burnt just as well as if you have an actual burn. Potential damage sends the same signals as actual damage. Which is useful, because that gives you the opportunity to consider whether keeping your hand over that candle or doing something about it.
Now, the spinal cord is an exciting place when it comes to the mechanism of pain.
Dr. Greg Lehman is a kinesiologist, chiropractor, physiotherapist and a researcher in the field of pain and biomechanics for more than 20 years, and he gives the example of the spinal cord as the secretary of the boss (the brain).
She gets a call in (pain/nociceptive signal) and can choose on previous experience whether to pass the "call" up to the boss, or to turn it down. The boss can have told the secretary that certain calls are not important (also based on past experience as well as other considerations), and the signal does not reach the brain, it stays in the spinal cord.
Which means we will not feel the pain, we can only feel it when it reaches the brain. Hereby the expression: The pain is in the brain.
Now, what can happen is that the assistant gets a little excited, or perhaps stressed, and she can make some mistakes.
If the boss has given the instruction that all calls are equally important, she might confuse the different signals. "Calls" from the line that informs about touch can be confused with those of pain (like the man with the nail, he probably felt the touch of the nail between his toes), just as well as those that tell about movement of a joint or of pressure. So now instead of just feeling touch or pressure, we feel pain, because that is the information that the brain gets!
Alarms are meant to make us do something. And that is ultimately why we have pain. It's a way the body moves us to take action.
When your hand gets near a fire you will feel pain and will move your hand away from the fire. The alarm comes on and tries to protect you.
If you sprain your ankle you will feel pain when you move it. Initially, the alarm is pretty good and it tells us to minimize walking or heavy loading on the ankle while it starts to heal.
The long term pain alarm is not a very good alarm. Meaning it is disconnected from the initial problem. Alarms don't tell us how much smoke there is nor do they tell us if there is even a fire. A smoke alarm can even go off when there is no smoke.
Our pain alarm can work the same way. The fire can have been put out but the alarm is still going off.
And when we have pain for a long time we can even increase the sensitivity of the alarm. So movement, pressure or temperature change can reach the brain in the form of pain (like our secretary confusing the "calls" she receives from different senses or signals and passes them all up to the boss as dangerous/important pain signals to act upon).
The brain makes the decision on what to do with the alarm (nociception/pain signals). It will do that – mostly subconsciously – based on previous experience and on knowledge, but also on expectations ("I always get neck pain when we drive over speed bumps"), beliefs ("My disc will slip out if I don't hold my spine stiff") and attitudes ("All things pass, I´ll get through this one as well").
Based on the total decision, the brain will send inhibiting, calming instruction to the body (the muscles relax, less stress hormones are produced, back-to-normal body functions) or exciting, alarming instruction to stay alert and on guard (tensing muscles, increasing heart beats, more adrenaline, less energy to everyday body functions like digestion and more).
The same nociception, pain signal, can therefore have a completely different outcome on how much we actually feel that pain.
This does not mean that when we feel pain, we are just exaggerating, or we just imagine it. The alarm is going off, the nociceptive signals are firing – it IS painful! The question is if there is anything we can do when it seems clear that there is no mechanical reason for this persisting pain (after having been examined sufficiently to discard that).
The great answer is yes, we are multidimentional, so is pain, and therefore we can use various ways to calm down these signals when they have started to fire away on their own.
In my next article I will discuss more about what happens with a body that is in persistent pain and different ways to deal with pain that is disconnected from actual damage.

also known as Long Live Death
Viva la muerte1971
Sorry. This film is not currently available.
VIVA LA MUERTE (LONG LIVE DEATH) centers on Fando (Mahdi Chaouch), a young boy whose father has been arrested for treason during the Spanish Civil War. Fando struggles with his father's arrest, and in a shocking moment discovers a letter in which his mother admits to betraying his father. His mother convinces him that his father committed suicide in prison, but Fando doubts this and attempts to discover the true fate of his father. The debut film of Spanish playwright Fernando Arrabal, VIVA LA MUERTE is a surreal tour-de-force considered by any critics to be the pinnacle of Spanish avant-garde filmmaking. Fueled with surreal images of violence, sexuality and biting political commentary, the film posits Arrabal as one of the preeminent Spanish-language surrealists alongside Luis Buñuel and Alejandro Jodorowsky.

2018 North Evo Vs 2017
Agree 100% on 2016 EVO...Great kite, especially from mid to fully powered, but feels slow and sluggish at the low endlindseym wrote: ↑Fri May 18, 2018 1:07 amGreat review !! I never rode the 2017 Evo so have no basis for comparison but I will say that I love the 18 model. I owned the 2014 which I also loved (except the bar pressure) but did not really like the 2016 Evo (alot of high end but it felt like the low end was stripped out). The new Evo to me feels alot like the Rebel in some ways, just a bit more agile.

If you believe you're too old to exercise or have been plagued by injury, I highly recommend watching the brief video below. The 60 year old man seen within will not only offer hope, but also provide ample inspiration. Wayne Quong began training approximately 3 and a half years ago after being diagnosed with frozen shoulder (also known as adhesive capsulitis). In the short time since, Wayne has developed the strength and athleticism to humble many adults half his age. In some ways, you could say that his shoulder ailment was a blessing in disguise. It ignited a fire that's been burning ever since.
Live Life To The Fullest
Prepare to be inspired by Wayne's vast range of abilities. He's strong, athletic, and well-conditioned. It's amazing that he's been training for less than 4 years.
Although Wayne's physical abilities are clearly impressive, my favorite part of the video wasn't his training, but rather the advice that he shared through the words below:
"The only way you can live your life to the fullest is to be as healthy as you can be… That's why I train."
I'll be the first to admit that I don't know what it is like to live without exercise. I can't recall a time in my life when I wasn't actively training or in some way involved in athletics. With that in mind, I pay particular attention to someone like Wayne who has lived at both ends of the spectrum. His many years of inactivity are still fresh on his mind. Therefore, he's one of the few people who can compare two vastly different lifestyles. He knows how it feels to be inactive and extremely capable.
Thus, when Wayne says that exercise is essential to live life to the fullest, he says that based on experience not assumption. He's not just throwing out a generic slogan. He's offering his perspective as someone who was once physically inactive for over 25 years. I can't share the same perspective, as I've never been inactive for more than a few days at a time. It is nice though to hear Wayne reaffirm what I've always thought to be true.
Write Your Own Story
Furthermore, it is always great to see someone redefine themselves rather than succumbing to the past. There are plenty of people in this world around Wayne's age who believe they are too old to change. Hopefully this story along with the others I've shared in the age-related category can help to dispel that myth.
It's never too late to change. Working to become a better version of yourself is always time well spent. It doesn't matter how old or young you are. There's always an opportunity to improve on who you were or what you did the day before.

Vancouver Police used new image analysis technology to create a searchable database of 30,000 YouTube videos and Facebook images to identify the Stanley Cup rioters.
"Vancouver is actually the model for these kinds of investigations going forward," said Grant Fredericks, who led a team of 52 analysts in processing video collected during the riot investigation.
"The most prolific source of evidence available for police generally comes from video evidence," said Fredericks.
More than 1,000 law enforcement officers from different agencies have been assigned to the Boston investigation. Fredericks says the Law Enforcement and Emergency Services Video Association has already been contacted by investigators.
"Vancouver set the standard, and I know Boston is looking at that standard," he said.
"The FBI has already been in contact with LEVA. They are interested in the Vancouver model. They want to see how well it worked, what technology is available, and they want to look at whether it's an option for them with this investigation."
Authorities in Boston are now asking witnesses to share any photos and videos taken from near the finish line to help investigators gather clues. Fredericks said that kind of evidence is key.
"There is no doubt that there are hundreds of people walking around with video images of the suspect or suspects who placed those explosive devices," he said. "They will be pursuing witnesses all around the world."
The challenge, Fredericks said, is tracking down all the race participants and witnesses who have already left the United States.
Runners returning to Vancouver on Tuesday reported police at the Boston airport were asking departing passengers if they had any video or pictures on their cameras or phones that may have captured some photographic evidence.
Three people were killed and more than 170 were wounded when two devices exploded near the finish line of the annual race on Monday.

Toto to Repay Weezer with "Hash Pipe" Cover
We've got official confirmation of the upcoming cover
Weezer recently returned with their biggest radio hit in years, a long-awaited cover of Toto's 1982 hit "Africa." Obviously, the cover left many wondering why Toto hadn't returned the favor yet. Well, it turns out, they're working on it.
Toto's Steve Lukather and Steve Porcaro revelead to one of our sister station's the other day that a Weezer cover is in the works. The band settled on the unexpected choice of "Hash Pipe," noting they considered doing a track like "Beverly Hills" but wanted to branch out. To hear the entire interview with Toto's two Steves, click here to head over to radio.com.
"We wanted to make it different, but we wanted to do something rock and roll." noted Porcaro. "I want to show everyone what a good rock and roll band we can be."
They rated Weezer's "Africa" cover a "B-double-plus," a generous yet honest rating. "Here's the thing- our music has such little nuance," Lukather explained. "We spent so much meticulous time. These guys stood this s*** up in an afternoon. And let's face it, they kicked ass on it."
Watch Weezer perform it on Jimmy Kimmel Live:
Toto's wonderfully meta cover is due within the coming weeks.

Women pension campaigners set to raise awareness in Sidcup
PUBLISHED: 16:01 07 December 2017
Women affected by pension changes are set to raise awareness of the difficulties they have experienced.
A group of WASPI campaigners (Women Against State Pension Equality) will be speaking to residents in Sidcup High Street on December 8, as well as attending other events in Bexley in the coming weeks.
The campaign centres on the impact changes to the state pension age have had on women who were born in the 1950s, who had been due to receive their pensions aged 60.
A spokesman said: "Many women have faced two very significant increases in their state pension age, and have had their pensions put back up to six years without timely notice, many losing more than £48,000.
"This loss of income has thrown 1950s women – many of whom started work at 15 and 16 years of age – into poverty, causing tremendous anxiety and worry for themselves and their families. WASPI women now need recognition of the clear injustice they have suffered."
MPs are due to discuss the issue at a House of Commons debate on December 14.

Melissa Rose Arcand is the founder + voice behind Old Town Society. Currently based in Alexandria, Virginia; Melissa Rose grew up outside of Boston and by the coast of New Hampshire where her love for port cities began. She moved to Alexandria, Virginia in 2012 – fell in love with the city and never looked back.
Melissa began the blog because she felt the city lacked a modern voice to help people navigate through the plethora of fun and exciting things to do.
"I always have people coming up to me asking where the best place is to get happy hour, or where they can find the best pasta dish, or where they could find a dress to wear to their event that night. I decided to create a blog to help people find their way around this awesome city! Alexandria is one of the most interesting places I have been – and I have traveled all over the world! It brings people together from so many backgrounds."
Outside of work (real estate) Melissa's passions include her dog Makarios, food, wine, visiting Virginia wineries, indoor cycling, and being an active member of her community.

About this Research Topic
Soft Robotics is a rising discipline which harvests compliance and deformability to explore novel application scenarios and enhance interaction with the environment. Soft robots adapt to the environment and deform their bodies upon contacts, so that novel design, fabrication, control and actuation methodologies are required. Being often inspired by Nature, soft robotics is collecting working principles from soft creatures like caterpillars, octopuses, jellyfishes or plants, and the technological development of soft components (sensors, actuators, bodies, etc...) is extremely heterogeneous and lively.
In recent years, robotic challenges helped steer the technological development of robotic systems, and fostered advanced, long-term solutions in the field of robotics and automation at large. Competitions are not only a way to promote technological progresses, but they are also a means to evaluated very different solutions to common problems. The RoboSoft Grand Challenge is a competition which invited teams to test the design and control of their robots in challenging scenarios. It was organized in April 2016 in the framework of the EU FET-Open RoboSoft Coordination Action on Soft Robotics. It was intended for soft robots and the tasks were designed to tackle specific features of soft robots, like resilience, body compliance, delicate contact and deformability. The overall aim of the challenge was twofold: on one hand, it challenged state of the art soft robots; on the other hand it pushed the performance of soft robots beyond the state of the art to foster novel soft robotics solutions. The RoboSoft Grand Challenge was made of scenarios which approximate real-world robot applications, where specific parts required peculiar robot features which were never requested in other competitions so far, such as body shrinking, delicate contact and compliant manipulation. Two different scenarios were used for the RoboSoft Challenge:
1. a locomotion scenario, which simulated an urban area (comprising an unstable building) which is not accessible by humans: the robot should be deployed far from the building, than it should go inside it passing through a small aperture and negotiate the environment to reach the end of the scenario.
2. a manipulation scenario where, in a structured environment, the robot should interact with several objects featuring complex shapes and different materials, then it should apply a certain force to the environment. This reproduced industrial, surgical or domestic scenarios where the robot is required to manipulate particular objects or to inspect structures.
In this Research Topic, we invite participants of the RoboSoft Grand Challenge to present the innovative solutions they developed to tackle the different scenarios. The advancement on the state of the art can be related to one or more part of the overall realization chain of their robots, which start from the conceptual design from users' needs (tasks of the scenarios), and then go to working principles, fabrication methodologies, control, deployment and development. The performance of the robot and the lessons learnt from the tasks are valuable contributions as well.
Keywords: Soft Robotics, Morphological Computation, Robotics Challenges, Compliant locomotion, Compliant manipulation
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.

The spotlight this morning is on travel photographer Ralph Velasco. The fun for me is his background as not only an accomplished artist, but an expert in relationship building with his subjects, often from different cultures. His URL says it all, "PhotoEnrichment.com." While photography is a huge part of each adventure, being on a trip with Ralph is just as much about understanding the cultural experience visiting the area.
In this new episode of "Why?" Ralph's story proves a point about people in general – humor, friendliness and photography are universal! Check out more of Ralph's work by visiting his website with a click on the image above. Then imagine being on a trip with him, and the experience of capturing your own backstories and the images to go with each one.

Fitting A New Car Battery.
Typical clues your car battery is about to give up are alternator problems, slow starting, electrical issues, lamps dimming,or already having had to jump your car.
Maybe you didn't observe or there were no signs of your car battery breaking down and you find yourself stranded at work, it may be worth finding a car battery replacement service in your area.
You may want to change the car battery on your own. The following is a general guide on how to replace it yourself. Before attempting to change Its suggested to look at the vehicle manufacturers guidance for your individual car.
If you have never replaced a car battery before, or your vehicle has particular needs like battery registration, you may be better to get car battery installation specialist to accomplish the task for you.
Things to consider is that most modern cars are very electrical dependent and store settings for electrical components,windows, roofs, and radios.
If you detach your battery without any an external power back up you may lose these configurations.
Cars installed with Stop/Start systems and some other modern vehicles that have particular charging systems that keep track of the power level coming from the alternator to battery, need brand-new batteries to be registered with the car.
These battery registration tools are expensive, and while you may be able to take the car to a nearby repair shop that has the hardware, they may well unwilling to register the new battery as they did not fit it.
In case your vehicle is equipped with the new AGM style battery it must be replaced with the exact same sort and not a traditional lead acid sort as this will occasionally create electronic issues and possible premature battery malfunction.
Verify you have the right automotive battery for your car prior to attempting to switch it out, most batteries have a sticker probably on the top or side that contains the battery amps, battery sort and battery cranking on it.
Battery Replacement Approach
Every thing Switched Off (First Step).
See to it that all of the your car electrics are switched off and keys are taken out from the ignition.
Locate the car battery (Second Step).
Depending on your car type the following are some of the most regular battery places, underneath the seats, bonnet, and in the boot area.
Take away battery hold downs (Third Step).
Your battery may probably have a bracket over the top or a small hold down at the base fixing the battery into place. These are normally held down with 8mm,10 mm, or 13mm bolts or nuts, a long socket and bar set could be called for.
Beware as cars age the hold downs can easily get corroded, which can consist of having to change the battery holder. (Apply some fast release substance on it if they look corroded).
Connect External Power (Fourth Step).
Hook up the battery memory saver to the car if vehicle electrical configurations have not already been lost as a result of a dead battery. Make sure you adhere to the tool producers information on the best way to do this.
Removing The Used Automotive Battery (Fifth Step).
When you disconnect the dead battery, if you have a battery memory saver hooked up the battery terminals are going to still be live.
When unfastened, you will have to make certain that the terminals do not enter into contact with another metal surface. Upon taking off endeavour to cover them using a non conductive item.
Most vehicle battery terminals use 8mm,10 mm,13 mm nuts these could generally be undone with a wrench.
Disconnecting the terminals.
(Negative Terminal 1st).
The primary terminal to remove will be the negative that has the - (minus) icon on it or the battery area itself.
(Positive Terminal 2nd).
Then remove the positive terminal that has the + (plus) icon on it or the battery itself.
Once you have the terminals detached transfer them out of the way so you have full access to extract the battery (make sure that not to make it possible for the detached terminals touch anything). A few vehicle batteries also have a gas venting out line connected, this should be detached before extraction.
Connecting the new automotive battery (Sixth Step).
See to it that the battery place is clear and clean, then verify the battery terminals are out of the way and place the automotive battery back into location.
(Connect the Positive Terminal 1st).
Take away the non-conductive protection from the positive battery terminal and attach to the positive terminal on the battery. Make sure it is secure and then re tighten.
(Connect the Negative Terminal 2nd).
Take away the non-conductive cover from the negative battery terminal and attach the negative terminal on the battery. Ensure to push it down and afterwards re tighten. In the event that you have a battery gas ventilation pipe reconnect to the new battery.
Remove the external power/battery memory saver (Seventh Step).
When you are happy that your new car battery is attached you may now remove the battery memory saver tool. (Do Turn On Or Start The Car With The Battery Memory Saver Still Hooked up).
Start the car (Eighth Step).
You may now start the car to verify everything is working, when you are happy the new battery is connected and the battery saver is removed.
Refit the battery hold downs (Ninth Step).
Once you have started the car and all is ok refit the battery brackets making sure you do not make connection with the battery terminals.
Stop/Start and Batteries Requiring Registration (Tenth Step).
Car batteries that involves battery registration you could now link the battery registration hardware and perform the process.

Yes, we already know and love the beautiful green, green grass; the rolling hills, valleys and rugged coastline of Wales.
Well, next year (2016) Wales is set to show a different side – with the launch of The Year of Adventure, a series of major events and activities supported by Bear Grylls and Richard Parks – Adventure Ambassadors for Wales.
We take a look at how to get adventurous off the beaten track in Wales right now.
Check out these four fun activities you and your teenagers will enjoy
Go cliff camping in Anglesey
This is wild camping on the edge – literally! After spending some time rock climbing, you'll abseil down to your 'portaledge', a hammock attached to the edge of the cliff high above the crashing waves. Enjoy a hot meal and watch the sun go down with a hot chocolate then fall asleep to the sounds of the swirling seas below. From £190per person. www.gaiaadventures.co.uk
Take on an underground assault course
This new underground adventure in Snowdonia route takes you through five kilometres of pure underground adrenaline. You'll take on no less than nine zipwires (one is the longest and one the deepest underground zip line in the world) You can also get to do a free fall down a 70 foot abyss. The challenge takes all day – but there are shorter options to choose too. From £79 per person. www.go-below.co.uk/zip-below.asp
Surf in Snowdonia
Who needs the beach and those elusive 'perfect surfing conditions' when, at the push of a button, this brand new lagoon (filled entirely by Welsh rainwater collected from Snowdonia mountain reservoirs) is transformed into perfect barrelling waves? The size of the waves can be perfectly controlled for beginners, intermediate and advanced surfers and there's a surf academy on board too, headed up by Jo Dennison, three-times Welsh Champion and former British Champion. From £40 per hour. www.surfsnowdonia.co.uk
Take a sheep for a walk
So Wales is full of sheep. But did you know some of them love nothing better than leading you on a tour around their patch? Welsh outdoor company Good Day Out has teamed up with Aberhyddnant Farm to create the new concept of sheep trekking. First you choose your sheep from a small flock of specially trained Jacobs. Then it's fitted with a soft rope halter and will then take you on a scenic trek through the Brecon Beacons. £65 for the full day adventure. www.gooddayout.co.uk

Someone I admire and respect a lot, met our little family for an early dinner the other night.
By the time we arrived at the casual pasta place around the corner from our home, I knew I would be lucky if I had even remembered to pack diapers. It had been one of those days. One of those days where your baby has a blow out, most likely because it's the first day you have forgotten to pack an extra outfit. One of those days where you forget to put your kids lunch in his backpack before he heads off to school. One of those days where you leave your keys in the front door for over an hour (shh, don't tell Ben about that one). So yeah, it was one of those days.
And when Pam (the gal I respect a lot) showed up for our dinner and pulled out some simple coloring pages and a pencil to keep my already anxious 3-year-old boy busy, my first reaction was: I should have thought of that.
Throughout our meal, just as Wesley began to become distracted or disinterested, Pam pulled out yet another very simple toy or activity from her Mary Poppins bag and then she redirected him to stay engaged in our "out-to-dinner-expereience".
Two more bites, and then you can draw us a circle.
Ok, two more bites and then you can color in this picture.
Two more bites and then I'll let you use the pen.
Watching Wesley finish his meal and stay seated for the duration of our stay was a bit of a miracle. Going out to eat hasn't exactly been an enjoyable experience for us over the last three years. Dinner usually ends with one of us staying to pay the bill and ask to get our food to-go, while the other heads to the car with an unhappy toddler. But this little experience was giving us hope. We left that dinner with homework. Homework to put together a regular "out to dinner bag" with specific, simple activities designed to help Wesley stay on his best behavior. It was such a simple concept. And it's not as if I had never attempted to bring something to entertain Wes while we're out (ahem, iPad), but I suppose I had never made such a deliberate a purposeful effort to select items I knew would engage his active mind and body.
So I went home, and this is what I came up with. And then I tested it. We had to eat out every night last week, as our house had been covered in tarps and wet paint for 4 days–so with us, the bag went. It worked. I took some items out, added a few others, until I ended up with what you see below. The key for me, was not letting him pick things from the bag himself and not allowing him to pull out multiple items at once unless they went together. As a reward for good behavior, I would sometimes pull out two items and allow him to chose the one he wanted to play with most. Even though it wasn't always pretty, we made it through every dinner last week.
I realize what I'm suggesting may be against many peoples "every-parenting-rule-ever-made". And in a perfect world, my children would sit quietly enjoying their meal following my every request. But my parenting isn't perfect, its real–and this is what works for our family. It might not works for yours. We're all different, and that's what makes us beautiful.
This bag stays in my trunk so that it is ready whenever we need it. I think I am going to pack a second bag as well, for variety. Here is a quick explanation on the items I selected:
1. Sliding Flashcards: The novelty of "sliding" is the element of interest to Wesley with these cards. He loves to take guesses at what he'll find inside.
2. Stickers: I pack a single sheet of his favorite stickers (more than one sheet would be overwhelming). He can put the stickers on the place mat or on a disposable paper menu from the restaurant.
3. Coloring Book: I don't hand Wesley the entire coloring book because he tends to get distracted by too many options. Rather, I pull out one sheet at a time, and then he will put more attention and effort into completing a single coloring page.
4: Play-Doh: This is a last resort, because it can be messy and it collects anything it touches–but when all else fails, I pull out the Play-doh. It's his favorite. We make snakes, and play food and shapes.
5. Washi Tape: This is my favorite. And it allows him to be the most creative. The best thing about Washi tape is that it doesn't ruin any surface it sticks to, and it is very easily removable (a lot like painters tape). I break off about a dozen 2 inch strips and allow Wesley to create a small train track on the table. Then he can use one of his toy trains (not pictured) to run the course he designed. Then I quickly peel it up before we leave.
6. ABC Flashcards: Wesley likes to flip through these, stack them, organize them, and even quiz us on what the cards say.
7. Disposable Place Mats: I just got these, and I'm anxious to give them a try–especially for Sawyer, who isn't eating from a plate yet. They stick to the table so that they don't slide around and fall onto the ground.
8. Lolipop: Reward for good behavior, AFTER dinner.
9. Twisting Crayons: Way better than regular crayons because I don't worry about them breaking or getting dull.
I'm so proud of this kid. Every day he teaches me to be better. He has my heart in a way I'll never be able to put into words. And he's growing up right before my eyes. Too fast I tell ya, too fast.

Spiritual Growth
Sunday School
Sacred Heart brings the Word and works of God to its younger parishioners through the Sunday School Religion program. Sunday School is open to 3, 4 and 5 year olds and is held during Sunday 10:30am masses, September through April. Parents are invited and encouraged to serve as teachers and assistants. Lesson plans are available with suggestions for craft projects to incorporate into the day's lesson.
Due to restrictions with COVID-19, we are not offering Sunday School at this time. We look forward to bringing it back in the future!
R.C.I.A. - Come learn more about the Catholic Faith! Please contact the parish office at 217.347.7177 for more information regarding RCIA.There is no committment .... simply come and learn more, ask questions, and grow in your Faith!
R.C.I.A., the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, is an integrated process of instruction, spiritual growth, and discernment for non-Catholics who wish to learn more about the Catholic faith. After an initial inquiry period, unbaptized individuals can be accepted as catechumens preparing to receive the Sacraments of Initiation-Baptism, Confirmation and the Eucharist- during the paschal Vigil. Those who have been previously baptized in a non-Catholic Christian tradition may be accepted as candidates to enter into full communion with the Church and receive those sacraments they have not previously celebrated.
Catholics who have been baptized but have not had the benefit of catechesis as well as those returning to Church also benefit from the RCIA program's introduction to the faith, worship, and the life of the Catholic Church. The program begins each year with inquiry sessions in August and concludes with a period of post-initiation instruction in the Easter Season. Parishioners are invited to serve as sponsors for the catechumens and candidates, accompanying their spiritual journey with prayer and support.
These classes are also a great way for Catholics to refresh their faith and to learn more about the things we do regarding Mass, Sacraments, etc. Many of us who were raised Catholic still have questions as to the whys and the whats, and this is our chance to ask questions and continue growing in our Faith!
Parish School of Religion
The 2020/21 Parish School of Religion (PSR) is for students of Sacred Heart Parish who attend Unit 40 schools or are homeschooled. The classes begin in September, and runs parellel to the school year, finishing in May. The classes take place at Sacred Heart Grade School every Wednesday night, from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. There is a $50 fee per child for the PSR program. See below for the PSR registration form.
In order to receive his/her sacraments, you and your student must be active, practicing Catholics, and the student must be enrolled for the entire school year.
We look forward to your child(ren) joining us for a great year of PSR as well as your involvement and support in the important task of teaching the Catholic faith to our children. If you have any questions, please contact Erica Zuber, Faith Formation Coordinator, at 217-347-7177.
A special thank you to the PSR teachers, coordinators, and other volunteers who give of their time and talents to ensure a successful PSR program at our parish. May God bless them all!
Lay Ministry Program
In its simplest definition, lay ministry is the work of those who are not professional clergy. Beyond that, the definition is in the eye of the beholder. At Sacred Heart Parish, we see lay ministry as an opportunity to serve in the faith community beyond simply attending Mass each week. It is the ministry of the people of God through their everyday gift of time and talent. Sacred Heart Parish lay ministry members are sharing responsibility as partners in ministry within and beyond the congregation.
Participation is strongly encouraged and opportunities are vast. Lay ministers are involved in DeColores, Marriage Encounter, Effingham Catholic High School Youth Group, Pro-Life Committee, Landscaping Committee, Art & Environment (Decorating) Committee, CCW, and so much more!

Protecting God's Children
The national sexual-abuse prevention program "Protecting God's Children" was adopted to provided free training to parishes, schools, and archdiocesan agencies to ensure a safe environment for our children. Developed by National Catholic Services, "Protecting God's Children" is a comprehensive program that includes two video presentations that incorporate stories from victims of sexual abuse and their families, who speak about the impact that the abuse has had on them. In addition, the videos feature testimony from perpetrators of child abuse, who tell how they selected their victims and how they made the victims feel that the abuse was their own fault. The program also provides information on how to prevent situations that can lead to abuse, on what behaviors should raise concern about abuse, and on how to report abuse.
Who Should Attend
If you are a member of the clergy, a diocesan employee (staff and participants in our Mass ministries), or a volunteer who has contact with children and youth, you are required to attend this one-time program. All volunteers at Sacred Heart School are required to participate prior to any volunteering, including attending school field trips. Please contact the parish office for information on up-coming workshops in our area.

The main goal of the task force, under the leadership of APSA President Rodney Hero, was to investigate the relationship between race and class in producing material, political, and social inequalities in the nations of the Americas. The task force also examined how the political systems in these countries work to foment and/or ameliorate inequalities that track with ethnic and racial identities and socioeconomic status.
The work of the task force unfolded in a period in which political science has begun to pay greater attention to the causes and consequences of various forms of inequality. To some extent, political science has lagged behind cognate fields of history, economics, and sociology in terms of scholarly attentiveness to inequality. The recent literature on inequality in political science, however, has focused almost exclusively on rising income inequality and how it affects political representation. The long-standing gaps in the life chances of whites and communities of color in the nations of the Americas have been largely unexplored. At the same time, in Latin America, which had long denied the existence of a relationship between race and ethnicity and class disparities, there has been an explosion in data-gathering on race and ethnicity and in particular on the relationship between race and inequality.
The task force members have explicitly sought to grapple with both the problem of rising socioeconomic inequality and the multifaceted racial gaps that exist throughout the Americas. Moreover, they examined the ways in which race and class inequalities are epiphenomena of politics. Thus, their work was organized around several core concepts and theoretical insights that animate research programs in political science—e.g., the role of institutions, the mobilizing power of group memberships, party politics, and social movements. They find that ethnoracial minorities, even in countries in which they represent a large percentage of the population and participate actively in elections, are hampered in translating their demographic potential and civic participation into meaningful socioeconomic gains by their low socioeconomic status and the incentives of the party system.

Untitled essay on - Professor Edward French
Richard Hughey
At the beginning of the 19th Century, the Los Angeles basin in Southern California was a dry and arid wasteland where, according to historian William Kahrl in his book "Water and Power," "God clearly never intended large numbers of people to live."
By the beginning of the 20th century the sleepy little pastoral pueblo the Spanish had founded in the basin was a budding metropolis whose population had increased 17 times what it was in 1860. That was only the beginning, however. A second wave of Argonauts was rushing to the state hoping to find gold in Southern California"s wheat, cattle and oranges. They were spurred by the strident and relentless boosterism of Los Angeles land developers and municipal officials. Just as in the Gold Rush, the arrival in California did not lead quickly to wealth and power. Often the result was tragedy. For example ...
A case in point: Professor Edward French taught Latin, literature, chemistry and mathematics at Wells College in the town of Aurora, a lovely little village in the beautiful Finger Lakes region of western New York on the eastern shores of Lake Cayuga, about 40 miles southeast of Rochester. He was a Civil War veteran, and he was licensed to practice law in New York.
Professor French had been induced to take a faculty position at Wells College by his wife, Mary Wells French. Mary"s brother was Henry Wells, of Wells, Fargo and Company, who had founded the college, a finishing school for women, in 1868. Professor French"s father, Augustus C. French, had been a well-known lawyer who served two terms as governor of Illinois (1846-1853).
,Avocationally, Professor French was also a botanist. His wife was an accomplished singer who performed for the family to the accompaniment of a flute or violin played by Professor French, while Nora May and Helen, his two daughters, struggled to follow on the piano. In the evenings Professor French read to his family, or they played word games designed to help the two girls build their vocabularies. Backgammon and cribbage were favorite family games as the girls grew older.
Life for the French family in Aurora was a happy one. Professor French was deeply interested in literature, and he maintained a fine library. His daughter, Nora May, learned to read before she was 4 years old. From her father"s library, the girl read all the classics from Shakespeare through Dickens.
In 1888 Professor French decided to move the family to Southern California. The French family was part of a mass migration to Southern California promoted by an aggressive publicity campaign orchestrated by Los Angeles boosters and driven by a fare-price war between the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe railroads. At one point the Santa Fe railroad offered to transport riders to Southern California for as little as one dollar per person.
Professor French was but one of many professional men from the East and Midwest who sought mid-life career changes in California"s booming ranching and agricultural industries.
Once a nature lover"s dream
Soon after his family arrived in Los Angeles, Professor French bought a small fruit ranch in the Chevy Chase section of what is now Glendale, one of Los Angeles" many suburbs that was still devoted largely to ranching and agriculture. The setting was ideal for nature-loving children such as Nora May and her sister, Helen. The ranch was full of hills and canyons covered in the spring with wildflowers and sagebrush and chaparral the rest of the year. Both girls were much given to the outdoor life.
Southern California was seen at the turn of the century as a land of milk and honey, with gold being mined in the form of oranges and lemons, bumper crops of wheat and barley, and herds of fat, contented cows. Los Angeles was a sleeping giant just beginning to awaken. It was then a huge staging area for arriving immigrants from the East Coast and Midwestern states, many of whom migrated north to San Francisco, the Santa Clara Valley, Marin County, and beyond as far as Oregon and Washington. Most remained in the Los Angeles basin or moved down the coast to San Diego.
For all its glitz, even then, Los Angeles was a city of tragedy and disappointment. Few immigrants improved their lot in life, and most died with a sense of failure. More than a touch was needed to turn anything to gold, and Professor French"s little fruit farm failed to prosper. Like so many others in California, Professor French was hit hard by the depression of 1893.
Then tragedy started to dog the once-happy French family in earnest. The French home was totally destroyed by fire: furniture, furnishings, personal effects, heirlooms, Professor French"s fine library — all gone. Then the business failed, and the mortgage on the professor"s ranch was foreclosed and the property sold at auction.
Professor French took a job teaching in the Los Angeles public schools. Eventually, he lost even that. His eyesight began to fail from cataracts, and he sought treatment at the Old Soldiers" Home in Santa Monica. Professor French"s eyesight was restored, but he remained at the Old Soldiers" Home as a resident employee, taking a clerical position in the records office.
Professor French"s story is not unique. His daughter, Nora May French, experienced a series of romantic relationships and frustration in her ambition to be a writer and poet. She committed suicide while a guest at the Carmel home of the poet, George Sterling, and his wife Carrie. Helen worked as a secretary and lived to the 1960s. There are many stories like that in the City of the Queen of the Angels.

Jeff Chery ft. Huey P. Newton - The People
- Artist: Jeff Chery
- Track: The People
- Producer: Jae Monee
- Album: Jetset Vagabond
This morning, we heard DanO come together with late Afrobeat pioneer and political activist Fela Kuti for Sounds of the Motherland, a cut dedicated to their mutual home country of Nigeria. On The People, a new single inspired by the mass shooting at Sandy Hook, Jeff Chery enlists the posthumous guest services of another icon of the black power movement, Huey P. Newton. With the help of the Black Panther Party leader (who appears in snippets from a 1966 prison interview), the longtime DJBooth fave complicates the current debate on gun violence by drawing attention to the brutally repressive police presence in American ghettos. Backed by the sampled production of Jae Monee, this thought-provoking jam is set to appear (along with the project's recently-featured title track) on Chery's Jetset Vagabond tape, scheduled for digital release February 19.

Arianna Huffington Reveals 'Incontrovertible' Bedroom Policy
You might think that something called the Aspen Ideas Festival – and anyone invited to speak at it – resides figuratively far from the problems of the daily masses. But apparently not.
Per the New York Observer's Jordan Valinsky, Arianna Huffington had this to say on opening night about the issue of bringing Smartphones, iPads and the like to bed:
After bragging that she only has "real books" in her bed, Ms. Huffington said she has eliminated electronics from her bedroom and that decision is "incontrovertible…"
"The problems that people have sleeping, a lot of them are connected to screens… I ask you, please, to never do that again."
Cut to an imaginary HuffPo all-hands meeting in the fall of 2014. Will Huffington stand firm when an underling charts out the dramatic drop in overnight traffic because of people having heeded this advice? TBD.
The Aspen event runs through July 2. Among those speaking today: CNBC's Maria Bartiromo, MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell and Arianna, again.
